Getting to know the Family

You awaken to a pleasant morning, groaning and wiping the sleep from your eyes as you let out a loud yawn. Wanting to get a better look at your own body, you quickly head to the bathroom to take a shower.

Seeing no one else up and about yet, you conclude you woke up slightly earlier than everyone else in the Tachibana Family, which suited you just fine.

Stripping yourself naked, you inspect yourself in the mirror. As expected, your body was terribly skinny, your face was average-looking, and your own cock sat at a miniscule 4 inches. Considering the terrible future awaiting your women, this would not do.

"It seems I need to start enhancing this body."

With your own powers, you could easily snap your fingers and make yourself a macho giant, but that would draw too much suspicion. And to be honest, Yuu's women did not mind his smaller stature. Perhaps a compromise between masculinity and body height would be better. His cock, however, he could easily conceal beneath his pants.

Snapping your fingers, you see it grow to an impressive 15 inches in length. When erect, it would become 18 inches.

You switch on the shower and lather yourself clean, the miraculous cleansing power of modern soap astonishing you.

"This feels so much smoother than all those old soaps I used in the past. If I recall correctly, it was in the 3rd century AD that I went to sleep...?"

You banish such recollections from your mind and switch off the shower, satisfied at its performance. Brushing your teeth, you grew to like the strawberry flavour toothpaste made for cleaning the mouth, a far better option than using salt and herbs.

With your morning cleansing finished and dressed in a new set of clothes, you head down to the kitchen where Tachibana Kyouka is busy making breakfast.

She turned to greet you with a smile.

"Good morning, Yuu-kun."

You felt your heart skip a beat, your eyes wide and your mouth open.

Here stood a goddess made flesh, her curvaceous body supple and smooth and radiating refined sex appeal, as if she were an empress dressed in the finest silks. Her skin was blemish-free, her gentle brown eyes like smoothened opals, her orange hair tied in a neat ponytail. Her firm assets left little to imagination, and to casual onlookers she was a walking temptress.

"What's the matter, Yuu-kun? You seem out of it."

Kyouka's words and concerned expression snapped you back to the present.

"It's nothing, Kyouka-san. I'm just stunned at your beauty," You answer back.

Kyouka giggled with a slight blush.

"Oh, please don't tease me like that, Yuu-kun," She teasingly joked, "Come on, I made you your favourite hotcakes."

Before you sat a plate of round, piping hot circular treats with sweet syrup drizzled on top. So simple yet appetizing, you swallowed your saliva and cut a piece, dipping it in syrup before putting it in your mouth.

It was sweet heaven.

"Marvellous..." You wistfully mutter.

"Glad you like it," Kyouka said, sipping her coffee, "I have to ask you though, do you have any plans for the school holiday? Summer vacation just started, yet I haven't heard of you going out with friends or the like..."

"It's fine, Kyouka-san," You reassure, "They just have a lot of personal commitments to handle before we can start hanging out."

"Really? I'm just worried you might be lonely," Kyouka muttered, "I was thinking of booking a trip to a nearby inn for the four of us, to relax and spend more time together."

And there it was, the catalyst that would send the Tachibana Family on a downward spiral. That inn was nothing more than a front for rapists to prey on unsuspecting women, **** them and take compromising media before selling it to the highest bidder. If they ever went there, it would be game over.

"I suppose a family trip together would be nice," You said, "When do you plan to book it, and where?"

"Let me see... in about two weeks' time, at Hanashinzou Inn," Kyouka answered, "They say they're famous for helping women relieve any and all tension they accumulate, and men feel exceedingly refreshed. I'm tempted to go there myself, actually."

Kyouka sighed to herself, rolling her shoulders. Meanwhile, with an outward poker face, you formulate your strategy.

I doubt she'd really believe me if I said the truth out of the blue, nor do I have evidence to incriminate the culprits. If I'm to shut down this operation for good, I need to dip my hands into several circles, build myself a cadre of loyal followers in the law enforcement and in the political elite. That way, I can have them handle it in my stead, and no one will link it back to me.

You smiled slightly at those thoughts.

"Yahoo! Good morning, Yuu-kun!"

You are accosted by long arms cuddling your face along with a firm, thick set of mountains pressing on your head. You inwardly sigh, turning to face the more tomboyish of the Tachibana daughters: Koharu.

"You look like you're in a good mood, Yuu-kun," Said Koharu smilingly, "Something happen?"

"Not really," You admitted, "But Kyouka-san said we're going to an inn in two weeks' time - all four of us."

"Yay! I've always wanted to go one!" Koharu exclaimed happily, "I've been really wanting to make a ryoukan-inspired manga for a while now, so this should give me the inspiration I need!"

Between you four in the family, Koharu was a mangaka, operating under the pseudonym Kotako. Famous for her yaoi manga and novels, she developed a strong cult following despite people never seeing her face, and was raking in a tidy side income.

"Come on, Koharu. Why not focus on your arts course first? I'm sure there's plenty of time for you to draw manga afterwards."

Yuka, the quieter and more feminine of the sisters, sighed at her sister's outwardly cheerful attitude. She sat down and drank her cup of tea, smiling slightly at the taste of yuzu.

"Oh, come on, you're no fun!" Koharu pouted, "I need an outlet for my stress, and my favourite hobby's the only way to do that!"

Yuka simply shrugged.

"Well, I suppose if it makes you happy at least..." She said, "By the way, Yuu-kun. Do you have plans later?"

"I don't," You answered, "You need me for something?"

"Actually, could you accompany me to the gym today?" Asked Yuka.

"I don't mind, but where's this coming from?" You asked.

As far as you knew, Yuka always went to the gym alone, and never asked you, a closet introvert, to ever accompany her elsewhere.

"I guess I just want to spend more time with you," Yuka said, blushing slightly, "I mean, wouldn't it be nice for us to do so, as brother and sister?"

You were wholly unconvinced, as were Kyouka and Koharu, but you decided not to call her out on it.

"Sure thing," You smiled.

Yuka seemed caught off-guard by your warm smile, and she averted her eyes quickly.

"Then... see you there later."

This small, happy family that wanted for nothing, save only to live their lives in peace and with boundless love, a prime example of contentment. No one would stand in its way. No one.
