Arrival in Venice

“What!? But momma, isn’t that a little excessive!?”

“Nonsense! It’s your 19th birthday tomorrow. Besides, you would have been able to go to the Carnival if that clown cunt didn’t kidnap you.”

“But would they really- “

“I’ve been advertising this for the past couple of weeks now. The event even looks set to top the original that took place last month. Besides, your sister will also be there. It’s been years since she left home, so go say hi to her. I should be able to meet up with you in a few days.”

Madoka sighed as her mother ended the call.

“What did she say?” asked Yuni.

“She somehow managed to get the Italian government to hold a second Carnival of Venice on my birthday tomorrow.”

“Wait VENICE!? Does that mean- “

“Yep! We’re going to Italy next!”

“What time does our flight leave?”

“In about 2 hours.”

“Wait! You mean we’re leaving tonight!? But we haven’t even checked out yet!”

“It’s best to leave here as soon as possible, I don’t want Emeri to get sad again.”

Yuni sighed as she began packing up.

“You’re gonna be the one to tell them when they get back.”

                                                                                        …

“YOU SHITTING ME!? We just got back from dinner and now we have to go to the airport!?” Serika growled.

“*Sigh* I forgot Auntie had this planned. We were supposed to leave tomorrow morning, but I guess it’s better if we leave now,” Emeri sighed.

Serika and Emeri did a final check, before the girls rolled out their suitcases.

Madoka and Serika peeked around the hotel gift shop as Emeri and Yuni handled the checkout procedure.

“NO! I’m not gonna let you get that!” Serika growled.

“What! It’s for me. Besides, this little minotaur plushie is cute. Oh, I’ll grab a magnet too.” Madoka giggled.

Yuni and Serika arrived just as Madoka and Serika finished buying their souvenirs.

“I got a minotaur!” Madoka smiled.

“MADOKA!” Serika yelled.

“It’s fine, let her enjoy herself. I guess I should buy a hat,” Emeri said.

Yuni quickly looked around before spotting something she wanted. Once the girls had their things, they hopped on a shuttle to the airport.

                                                                                 …

Emeri pouted as Serika rubbed her head.

“I warned ya about doing this,” Serika chuckled.

“Shut up Baka.”

Due to her drastic makeover, Emeri ran into a bit of trouble when attempting to board. Luckily, another attendant was able to see the similarities between Emeri and her passport photo, allowing her to board.

“Hey! Don’t rub that cream on my head!” Emeri pouted as Serika began smearing the beauty cream all over her head and face.

“Sorry, but it says to cover your skin with this and your head’s all skin,” Serika teased.

“Stop teasing me,” Emeri pouted as she smeared cream over Serika’s mouth.

The two then burst out laughing as Yuni and Madoka happily watched.

“It’s good that she’s starting to go back to normal,” Yuni smiled.

“Hee hee, now I can eat a nice Mediterranean dinner unlike last time,” Madoka giggled.

                                                                          …

The plane landed an hour later in Venice, Italy.

“Guess I am starting to get used to flying,” Serika stated as they walked through the airport.

“Told ya!” Madoka gloated.

Since the shops were closed, the girls claimed their baggage and went straight to the hotel.

“Wow! The city looks beautiful!” Yuni exclaimed as she gazed out the window.

“So your sister’s in town as well?” Emeri asked.

“Yeah, that’s what momma said. Though, I don’t have her number,” Madoka said.

“What’s she like?” asked Serika.

“Unlike the snob twins, Tetsuka-nee-chan is a lot more like momma. She’s a thrill seeker and likes to get in fights.”

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Madoka gazed out the peephole, before smiling and unlocking the door.

“Yo Doka!” said the woman outside the door.

She had long jagged silver hair, red eyes, sharp teeth, and massive breasts. She was also buff and scantily clad, wearing nothing but a skintight bikini and a pair of silver sneakers.

“Tetsuka-nee-sama!” Madoka happily cried, as she threw her face into Tetsuka’s breasts.

“Heh, Nee-sama’s got the goods, though yours are nice an juicy themselves,” Tetsuka grinned as she gently groped Madoka’s breasts.

She then gazed into the room.

“Wait! You got a harem!? And they’re all girls!? Damn, Ka-san must be over the moon.”

“They’re not my harem. Though Serika and Emeri are dating.”

“Emeri!? Haven’t seen her in years. Where is she?”

“Here,” Emeri grumbled as Tetsuka walked over and gawked at her head.

“Damn girl! Where’d your hair go!? Though it must be nice and light. If I could, I’d happily get rid of all this mesh growin outta my skull,” Tetsuka laughed as she smacked Emeri’s head.

Yuni and Serika then introduced themselves.

“Say Tetsuka why doesn’t Madoka have your phone number?” asked Yuni.

“Oh, it’s cuz I don’t have a phone. Well I do, but it’s busted,” Tetsuka smiled as she pulled a broken phone out of her breasts.

The girls stared in shock at the broken phone. It looked like something had taken a bite out of it.

“This always happens when I get a new phone. I know you’re supposed to talk with it, but it’s filled with really good metal, that I just can’t help myself.”

The girls struggled to process Tetsuka’s statement.

“Ah, Emeri! Momma said she gave you a smartwatch to give to Tetsuka,” Madoka nervously interjected.

Emeri then rummaged through the suitcase and pulled out a small case.

“Auntie said this was for you and NOT to consume it at all costs, whatever she meant by that,” Emeri stated as Tetsuka snatched the box and opened it.

She sniffed the smartwatch inside before shrugging and slapping it on her wrist.

“Hardly any metal in it. Well guess I’ll set it up. Though when did ya become so close with Ka-san, Emeri?”

“Ever since I began living in the mansion a few years ago.”

“You’ve been livin there? Dang I’ve really been outta the loop. Geh, bet Ka-san’s gonna yell at me as soon as I send the call.”

After setting up the watch, Tetsuka called Harumi.

“Osu! Ka-san.”

“TETSUKA GINKAWA! IT’S BEEN ONE YEAR SINCE I LAST HEARD YOUR VOICE! I’VE BEEN WORRIED SICK ABOUT YOU! YOU’RE LUCKY MY ASSOCIATES SPOTTED YOU ROAMING THE GLOBE! THOUGH THEY SHOULD’VE GIVEN YOU A NEW PHONE! But considering you’re calling me on the smartwatch I asked Emeri to give you, I’m assuming YOU ATE THAT PHONE TOO!”

Everyone except Madoka let out audible shock at the revelation.

“Oi Ka-san, Doka and her girlfriends are here!”

“Oh, whoops! Sorry about the yelling girls. And sorry about not telling you about Tetsuka, Emeri. I didn’t want you to be frightened of her if I told you she eats metal.”

“WAIT! AUNTIE, WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE EATS METAL!?”

“She’s just built differently. Though she’s still got Ginkawa blood coursing through her, so it’s best for her to reunite with me at the mansion, now that Illumous is declaring war on me.”

“Wait what!? They’re declarin war?”

“Why yes. Maybe if you didn’t eat your phone all the time you’d know. I’ll fill you in on everything now, so sit down.”

                                                                           …

Tetsuka slammed her fist into the chair, denting it, as Harumi finished catching her up to date.

“Those ******* whores! I’ll be sure to pulverize them and that blonde for the hell they gave us. Oh, and I’m sorry I didn’t know about grandfather or you becoming the head.”

“Well, I’ll be sure to discipline you when I arrive. I know you like to travel, but it’s safer to regroup at the mansion for the time being. Besides, it’s been nearly a decade since you left. It’d be nice to chill in your own room, wouldn’t you say?”

After ending the call, Tetsuka waved goodnight as she retired to her room.

The girls then drifted off to sleep, with the exception of Madoka.

“58,59, YAY! IT’S MY BIRTHDAY!” she yelled as the clock struck midnight.
