Chapter 24 - Familiar Little Helpers 3

Author's Note: I am not an editor or a professional writer. I will write this and edit it to the best of my ability. I also do not own Uma Musume, which is owned by Cygames. Watch the animes and read the mangas, for they are pretty good. Finally, please enjoy.

3rd Person POV:

While Norn tried to give chase the other free runners on the team captured her, and took her to the ground. Soon Norn was being put in her own straitjacket along with Tactical Gray. The boss sent some random maids and medics to check up on her. Doctor Mana was sent to see if Norn was okay after being taken down by the others. She was soon diagnosed as healthy, but was pissed off at the rest of the team for taking her down and putting her in a straitjacket.

Vic soon talked to her saying," Norn chase her in your own time, we have a meeting to go through." Norn calmed down and as everyone heard him, the team now realized the dating ban was now officially lifted. Vic didn't notice though Lily was deciding to sit near ImP, KiWi going to Jo, Rose going to Sweets, Spice putting her arm around Ayana, and Rain hopping to where Gray was seated, who looked away blushing. Steel saw all the events smiling as her competition for Tsukasa just reduced by a lot with GW, Mama, and BlaD being left. ImP was soon blushing as she put together that Lily liked her like that, and Jo became exasperated, but happy that KiWi was with him.

Ayana began to cuddle up to Spice, and Rose tried to impress Sweets with her still being dense about everything. Finally, even though they were taunting each other Rain and Gray were blushing in each other's presence. The rest of the team either didn't notice, was happy for them all, or did not care. Soon after everything and everyone is under control the boss Mina soon started her next welcoming speech," Everyone calm now, next up is the head butler, and in charge of clean-ups Takeshi Oda." The butler soon stepped up to the podium removing his sunglasses in his butler outfit saying," Hello everyone I am the head butler assigned to our mistress Mina Sakamoto, and I hope to serve you as loyally as I have served her during your stay with us."

Takeshi Oda POV:

When I was just a boy I was taught since I was born to serve the Du Vault family. At first, I hated not having control of my future as I felt chained to being a servant for some rich jerks. That was why I rebelled I skipped butler lessons and etiquette training and chased freedom and adventure. I was a troublemaker and a scoundrel at times getting on the nerves of my fellow servants. Still, my father spoke up for me saying I'll turn around, because without this both of us would be homeless.

I felt completely trapped between servitude and homelessness. I only attended classes for my father and to avoid homelessness. One day something changed it was one of those days I skipped classes, because of my desire to be free. I ran into a girl who also ran away, but not from lessons but from home. She was crying in the woods I liked to hang out in crying her eyes out underneath an oak tree.

We spoke as I was worried about her, and we soon got comfortable enough to tell each other about our problems. I told her about my lack of freedom and being trapped between homelessness and servitude. She told me about her familial neglect, about being overlooked for her sister no matter how much greatness she showed. She even showed me her brilliance and soon we were having fun. That's when Du Vault security came and found both of us, and I soon learned she was Mina Sakamoto Du Vault's lady of the house I serve.

I knew at that moment I wanted to serve her and only her. It wasn't some form of love or insanity, no it was knowing under her I can achieve freedom. I took my training seriously and told my father who I wanted to serve under. He was so proud and helped me with the training necessary and negotiating for me to be with Mina's team. When I graduated I was soon assigned to her and worked my way up the ranks becoming her head butler, surpassing her older more experienced butlers.

I served by her side through successes as her brilliant mind shone through all obstacles. Still, she was overshadowed because her ears were on the side of her head and not on top, and she lacked a tail. She was overshadowed because she was human and not an Uma Musume. That's when using her own money she left the family to start her own business in her father's homeland. She was soon successful like always, but the kicker to her plans she was planning to shine brighter than her sister on the world stage by creating her own sports team.

During this time I watched my mistress decide to go into freestyle racing only to realize it has a small presence here in Japan. It meant there was almost no one in the country fully interested in the sport and most Uma Musume give up professional careers after their three years at academies. Still, she didn't give up she built a base with the resources needed to train anyone into an incredible force. She asked scouting agencies for any Uma Musume who were healthy and are still interested in running. She even scouted through social media and job websites having job applications sent for anyone to race for her.

While she was searching she also gathered individuals to help assist her future team. All of them being masters in their own field or servants she could trust in certain jobs. That's when we met Ayana Hiraga an agent looking for a team for her clients who were interested in the Free Style Running scene. Which to us sounded like a miracle from the three goddesses themselves. We immediately agreed to meet the team in the conditions of a tryout even though we were desperate and had the resources to turn any one of them into high-level athletes.

Still, she knew business well, if you act too desperately it might turn away those you want to attract. We soon met the team and they were beyond our imagination. They were not only high-level athletes already, but healthy as well. I looked up their backgrounds and I found papers that each of them was from local racing and had no criminal records. Still from seeing the team some of them are a bit crazy all different from each other, so I did not expect that to last.

Still had great qualities as people. Victory Gate and his leadership skills, with Mama Blue's motherlike care and observation. Tactical Gray's intelligence with Tyrant Rose's Charisma. Great Wonder's kindness and nobility with Enduring Rain's hardworking attitude. Edge Lily's competitive spirit and Steel Valkyrie's will to win and strength.

Then there's High Spice's hustle and confidence with Imperial Punk's observation skills and honesty. After is Sweet Pollen's tomboyish sweetness, and Black Diamond's musical ability and devotion. Next is Endless Journey's Intelligence and love of learning with Norn Valkyrie's absolute love of freedom like I do. Finally is King Wild and her creativity and energy. All of them had great social qualities to balance out the social awkwardness, insanity, attitude, and flirting.

Hours Later

After finishing my speech I watched other people's speeches and more ensuing insanity cases by the team. I and the rest of the servants cleaned up and repaired anything that was damaged. After being dismissed and heading to my room there waiting was Mama Blues. I then with my best professional self asked," Miss Blues what might I help you with?" She then smiled a beautiful happy smile and approached me.

This was very odd behavior as she got so close she was basically leaning on me. She soon put her hand on my face and I can now feel her breast upon me. She was making me flustered and blush, what could she want, why was this happening to me? She then slipped a piece of paper into my shirt pocket of my suit and finally she began talking. She spoke saying," Mr. Oda it seems you've caught my interest, as you see I can notice everything about a person as I meet them."

She soon stops leaning upon my front and soon walks behind me and leans upon me again on my back. She whispers to my ear," When I watch you I see a man who loves freedom, but is smart enough to serve the right master. A man who is serious and dedicated to succeed and find a life for himself no matter what it takes. You're interesting Mr. Oda and I like what I see and you remind me of a man whom I used to love who is now long gone from the world of the living as well. He was a man able to get me to forget my dreams and live a common life, but you might be better as I see the ambition and desire in you to reach an absolute higher than what you are currently and are able to do it."

She soon steps away as I turn around gasping as my body feels hotter and aroused. She then walked away attractively and gestured with her hand on the side of her head balled up except for her pinky and thumb sticking out. She soon says at the same time," Call me, when you're ready to go out sometime." After she walked away I ran into my room and as soon as I entered and shut the door I leaned on it fell on my ass and I breathed hard. I touched where she leaned on me and soon got the paper out of my pocket.

It was her number, she aroused me, and weak in my knees. I can't get her out of my mind anymore, and she's occupying it like an invading force. I want to see her again and again for the rest of eternity. She is one hell of a woman. Oh, my three goddesses she'll haunt my dreams tonight.
