Valkyrie Smash

260 I don't believe it.



"Um… Three?"

"... Yes?"

"What are you doing?"

"... Nothing…"

Zero Five was a little confused. Just like everyone, they had boarded the Nephilim ship and were waiting for it to take off. Though she wanted to spend the trip alongside the Doctor, he had dismissed her and the other Valkyries saying they needed to be prepared for the battle. Of course as their leader they couldn't just leave him alone so Venti and Sitta were guarding him right now.

With that said, the others were free to spend the time on the trip however they liked, at least until they arrived at the Red Tower. Juni was with the human children telling them stories to keep them distracted. A number of Nephilim joined her and they seemed to get along very well. Triska and Trenta were mingling with the Nephilim as well. Nino and Ichigo were checking on their unconscious friends. As for CS, she was probably taking a nap somewhere.

Five was on the deck trying to relax before the big battle, but for some time now she was unable to do it. Ever since she came out of Eir, Zero Three has been a bit too clingy to her. She understood that the young Valkyrie was worried about her because of what happened during the last fight, but that didn't prevent it from being a little uncomfortable.

"I wanna go home…" Three said after a while. "I want to go swimming."

She was sitting right beside the ponytailed Valkyrie, her arms wrapped around her waist and her head resting on the soft melons. Five didn't know how to react to the sudden closeness so all she could do was allow her to remain like that.

"It would be nice to sleep on my bed after everything that happened." Five said, trying to play along with what she said.

"I wish Nine was here as well…"

When the blond Valkyrie was mentioned, Five felt a weak pain in her chest and suddenly she felt like she knew what Three was feeling. It was loneliness. Even with Nino and the others around the two of them still felt like they were missing something. No matter how they looked at it, without their friend around their team was lacking, and the more they thought about it the more they missed her.

"Maybe it was for the better that she didn't come." Five said after a while. "Who knows what will happen going forward. The enemy this time is unlike anything we have fought before."

"I miss the days when the worst we had to face was a C class Calamity." Three said.

"You mean the days we had nothing to do?"

The two fell silent for a few seconds then started giggling. Their memories of the forty sixth base were calm most of the time. Unlike the other bases which had to fight high class Calamities all the time, the forty sixth was always peaceful. Because of that the Valkyries had all the free time they could get except for their daily patrol and mandated checks.

In those days, Three had spent most of her time swimming in the rooftop pool. It became her favorite place immediately after moving to the new base. When she's submerged in the cold water, her mind becomes clear and she forgets all her worries.

"Say, what do you think about Nino?" The young Valkyrie asked.

"Hm?" Five was confused for a moment.

"You know how she now remembers her previous life or something, right? From what I understood, apparently she was a completely different person before she became a Valkyrie."

"Ah, now that you said it…"

"I think Doctor I trying to avoid talking about it to us. I can see why, though."

Three fastened her hold on her teammate and closed her eyes. Unbeknownst to her, Five had started caressing the young one's hair allowing her to relax more. The slight discomfort she felt before was now gone, and the only thing she could think of was how cute her friend was.

"Hm~ hm~, very nice!"

A voice said, startling both Valkyries and when they looked to the left they saw a bizarre sight. Behind the corner, a young girl was holding a small rectangular device up and looking at it with a broad smile. Her bright blue hair and eyes revealed that she was a Nephilim, however neither Valkyrie seemed to recognize her.

When she noticed that the two of them were looking at her, she tore her gaze from the small device and nervousness made its way to her face. After a while she stepped out and walked up to them, bowing her head and apologizing.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you." She said. "You looked so cute together I couldn't help but take some photos."

"Photos?" Five and Nine looked at each other.

"I know I should've asked for permission first, but please accept my apology." The blue haired Nephilim said and bowed her head. "Please let me keep them! I want such a genuine show of affection to be a part of my collection!"

"Um… I don't get it, but…"

"You'll let me!? Thank you thank you thank you!!!"

Seeing his excited she was, Three felt herself incapable of refusing. She remembered the time the human soldiers had asked to take photos with her so she saw no problem with the Nephilim taking one as well, however she still felt a little confused.

"Alright then! Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?" The Nephilim said.

"S-sure…"

"Since when were the two of you together!?"

"Since when…" Three looked up at Five. After a while she answered honestly. "A little over four years, I think?"

"Four years!!?" The Nephilim exclaimed, tapping the screen of her device furiously. "Who was the first to confess her feelings?"

"... What?"

Seeing that the two were confused, the Nephilim seemed to get even more excited.

"So you have yet to confess!" She exclaimed, hugging herself while wriggling with a slight blush on her cheeks. "A~h! This is the best type of relationship! Two Nephilim getting close to each other without even knowing it! Their feelings grow stronger through the challenges they overcome together, and over time their bond becomes unbreakable! This is what I call true love!!!"

Three was the first to understand what she was rambling about and quickly let go of Five, feeling quite embarrassed. Five remained oblivious, tilting her head slightly as if asking the Nephilim what was going on.

"We aren't Nephilim though." She said. "We are Valkyries."

"Eh?" The Nephilim froze in her place. After a second she turned to them and asked. "Isn't that the same thing?"

"Well, technically…" Three said. "Valkyries aren't born on this world so…"

"I see. I guess we still need to make that distinction." The blue haired Nephilim said, nodding.

"Also, we aren't lovers or anything!" The young Valkyrie added. "Both of us are Doctor's Valkyries."

"Doctor? Ah, you mean Doctor Sam Sanderson?" She raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean his personal Valkyries?"

"A lot." Three answered, starting to feel annoyed. "And one of them is that we are his lovers."

"Eh?" Once again the blue haired Nephilim seemed to freeze, this time however she was completely stunned, her colors fading as if she had turned into a stone statue. "B-b-b-but he is a human male!!!"

"So what?"

"How can you be in love with him!? He isn't even one of us?"

"Again, so what?"

Three stared at the blue haired Nephilim who looked quite distressed. After a while, when she realized the young Valkyrie was serious, she staggered backward as if she had lost her balance and then leaned on the railing for support.

"... I knew it…" she muttered, tears beginning to gather in her eyes. "I couldn't save them and now… a man has gotten his hands on them…"

"Um… what are you talking about?"

Hearing Three's question, the Nephilim almost snapped her neck as she turned. After a moment of silence she let out a sigh, inhaled a deep breath then stood straight, placing a hand on her ample bosom and spoke again.

"My name is Sigyn! I made it my life's mission to document the beautiful romantic relations between our kind!"

"... I don't get it…" Three said.

"Of course you don't." Sigyn said, shaking her head. "You have been tainted by the touch of a human male, tricked into believing that you are in love with him." Her eyes snapped open and she pointed her hand at the young Valkyrie. "Nephilim are only supposed to love other Nephilim! Falling for a human male is a grave betrayal! Males aren't supposed to be a part of our lives! There is a reason all of us were born female! Every last one of us!"

It was only then that Three noticed such an important detail, having gone over her mind the entire time. The Nephilim as well as the Valkyries, all of them were female. She wondered if all of it was just a coincidence, but she shook the idea out of her mind almost immediately. There had to be a reason for it to be this consistent, but then again their case was special compared to humans.

If they considered Freyja to be their mother, then it would make sense why there were no male Nephilim or Valkyries. They were born from the mind of a little girl and had no father. That explains it all.

"Nephilim are only supposed to love other Nephilim?" Five said questioningly. "How does that even work? I mean, you can't even have sex…"

"S-s-sex!!?" Sigyn was once again stunned.

"Yes." Five nodded. "I mean, none of us have penises, right? I don't think I can love someone without a penis…" Realizing what she had just said, Five's cheeks began flushing and her gaze fell to the floor. "Well, not that it matters. I don't think I can love anyone other than Doctor…"

As a warm and fuzzy atmosphere enveloped the ponytailed Valkyrie, a smile formed on Three's face and she turned to look at the blue haired Nephilim.

"I agree with Five on this." She said. "You probably never had sex before, that's why you can say what you say. I'm sure all it would take is a few minutes with Doctor and you would be worshipping the floor he walks on."

Three couldn't even begin to comprehend how two Nephilim can fall in love with each other. Having sex with the Doctor was the best thing about being in love with him, and though she knew she had gained feelings for him even before they did it for the first time, she still felt that doing the deed with him was why solidified her bond with him. Without it, she doubted that she would've been as attached to him as she was now.

"I… I don't believe this…" Sigyn said in a low voice. After a moment of silence she suddenly took off running, her voice echoing in the distance. "I DON'T BELIEVE IT!!!"

The two Valkyries watched as she disappeared and then looked at each other, a long sigh escaping both of them.

"What a weirdo…"
