Chapter 29: Ko-chan’s Training (1)
"Morning." Naruyo sat down at the table for breakfast like usual.
"How are you feeling? Have you recovered?" Hinari seemed concerned.
"Fine. Full Recovery." Naruyo peeled a banana as she spoke.
"Have you seen Asami? I didn't see her at all yesterday after Matsuko spoke with her two nights ago."
"I saw her just now." Sakari came in and investigated the pantry.
"Oh? Maybe I should go take a look." Hinari stood up to leave, having eaten already.

Out in the hallway, Hinari found Asami leaned up against the wall, taking one tiny step at a time while her ankles were shaking non stop. She was wearing the skimpy maid costume Kogamo had designed earlier and a pair of ballet heels. Her arms were behind her back and she was pressing her thighs together as she walked.
"Asami, do you need help? You look a bit unstable." Hinari tried to help, but got nothing but a scowl in return.
"Ghhh--mmnmn-rrhh" She tried to talk but her mouth was thoroughly filled by the law. She continued to take one little step at a time while leaning against the wall.

I woke up a bit excited. Today was going to be the day I started training again with Matsuko after the incident last week. Somehow, I had grown used to various kinds of physical restraint training, and when I wasn't doing them, I felt unfulfilled.
In my head, I've been replaying Matsuko's lines over and over since that day. "It's amazing, a skill that belongs only to you." Every time, it makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside, so my desire to train has grown even stronger. I feel like if I can do just a little more, overcome even stricter restraints, then I will be even more amazing in Matsuko's eyes.
I happily got dressed in casual clothing, I had already gotten used to the presence of the vibrators, though that is partially due to the fact that Matsuko has not turned them on at all since she got the remote. Quickly making sure that nothing was poking out of my bikini, I left the room to rejoin the others. I was almost skipping, I felt so light on my feet today. Near the stairs I saw Asami for the first time since that day. She was wearing the maid costume I made for her, which looked so cute, it definitely suits her!
She was leaning on the wall and Hinari was nearby just following her while trying to help.
"Hey, Hinari-chan, Asami-chan, how are you doing?" I ran up and bowed slightly to them.
"Look, Ko-chan is so agile in her ballet boots, she's skipping and running and doesn't look unstable at all. Why are you having so many problems, Asami-chan?" Hinari poked fun at Asami, who couldn't fight back in her current situation.
Asami gave another scowl and tried to move away from the wall to move to the stair railing, but she barely made it three steps before stumbling and falling. Hinari and I barely caught her and helped her get down the stairs into the foyer. She sat down on the couch and looked away, staring off into space.
"We're all here. I think we're finally back to normal after the incident a few days ago. At least most of us. Would you three like to show us what you brought back a few nights ago?" Matsuko addressed the room, drawing a glare from Asami during a certain line.
"Oh, right, so much happened that I almost forgot. The school wanted us to plan some kind of entertainment for the class to commemorate the school's founding day. They approved our idea for Casino Night, so we went out to get some materials for it. Actually, we polled the class about what kinds of events they'd like to see. You're never going to believe what we got in the results." Hinari reported about the developments happening in the student council.
I had missed several meetings in a row due to training and matters related to Asami's matter, so this was the first I was hearing about the casino matters. "Ah.. so what did the results say? What events do people want to see?"
"The number one request was 'date auction with Ko-chan'. The number two request was 'photo booth with Ko-chan', and number three was 'Ko-chan challenge' where you pay to try a number of challenges like walking in ballet boots, pushing your hands behind your back, and doing a pirouette with a tea cup.
My eye started to twitch as she explained the results of the survey. "Wait! Why is it all about me?" I slammed the table.
Hinari smirked even wider "Wait, we haven't gotten to the best part. We also polled the class on what kind of waiting staff they'd like to see. The overwhelming winner, with 85% of the vote, was that they wanted to have cool butlers like we had at the maid cafe, but they wanted a cute bunny Ko-chan as well. It seems like your dreams of dress-up time are going to have to wait a while longer, Ko-chan~"
"Argh, I won't accept this! I want to see bunnies too, why does no one else agree! I demand a recount!" I slammed my hands again.
"Well, Ko-chan, it wasn't my decision. If you want to change it, you'll need to convince the class. Feel free to make your case in tomorrow's morning assembly. If you can convince the class, then I will wear your bunny suit with a smile." Hinari smiled.
"Agreed. Democracy is best." Naruyo nodded too.
"So it's decided. Ko-chan will fight for her eye-candy life tomorrow morning. Good luck, Ko-chan~" Matsuko rubbed my head and I pushed her away.
"You'll see, everyone loves bunny girls!" I stated with full certainty.
"Ko-chan. Stay behind." Naruyo called to me as everyone was about to disperse.

"Matsuko's request. Uniform alterations. Armbinder addition." Naruyo brought over a garment bag off the rack in the foyer. Inside was my school uniform that I hadn't worn in a while due to the holiday week. It largely looked the same from the front, but when she turned it around, I could notice additional fabric sewn into the wings, like a big pocket.
"I had her change your school uniform to facilitate your training. Now, your arms will be safely tucked into your wings behind you and hidden from view. She also made a new set of uniform gloves for you to use. They are similar to the mittens you were using in training before." Matsuko explained in more detail.
"Is it really okay for me to wear this kind of thing to school? Won't people think it's weird?" I still wasn't sure about the whole idea.
"Can't you see from the poll results? You are already extremely popular among the class, and there are more than a few people who are even trying to copy your style. And besides, you've always held your arms behind you since the first few weeks of school, so just because they are locked there instead of it being an at will thing is not a big difference, is it?" Matsuko soothed my worries in the most dangerous way, compliments.
I slowly nodded. "Thank you, Naruyo, I will take care not to damage it."
She handed the uniform to me. "Strengthened material. Just try. Trapped for sure."
A little shiver went down my back. Was there really a need to make it impossible to escape when I was asking myself to do it?
* * *
The next morning, I got partially dressed in my school uniform, but then I remembered that my new uniform required help to put on. I picked up the gloves and went to Matsuko's room. "Um, Matsuko... can you help me get dressed?"
A few seconds later, the door opened and a hand jumped out, grabbed my arm, and yanked me into the room in under a second. The door slammed with a clatter before anyone even noticed it was opened.
Inside, Matsuko was standing in her underwear and stockings, arms folded, and examining me from head to toe.
"Um... Is something wrong? I didn't mean to interrupt you changing... I can come back..." I was starting to blush because I didn't get to see Matsuko's body very often.
Matsuko stifled a laugh "You like what you see that much? Well, maybe I should let you see it a bit more often, huh? Would you like that?" She bent over and put a hand on my chin. I nodded subconsciously.
"How honest. Well, you'll need to work hard today if you want your dreams to come true, Ko-chan~ Now, turn around. You didn't do the corset right. Your old uniform had a corset but it was mostly just cosmetic. I had Naruyo change it to a real one when she redesigned it for your training."
"I guess that explains why it's much more rigid and thicker now. I wasn't able to close it very far on my own and thought I was gaining weight.." I thought out loud.
"Now, Ko-chan, grab the top of my book case and pull yourself up a little." I followed her instructions and she started pulling on the corset. She quickly tightened it down, and I could feel my stomach from the chest to the pelvis start to constrict. Soon, I had to take shorter breaths and consider my movements more.
Matsuko stopped pulling when the sides of the corset were closed completely. She tied off the laces and zipped over the laces all the way to the top of the tutu. Then she closed three ornamental clasps over the zipper with soft clicks. "These look like useless ornamental clasps, but they are actually strong locks integrated into the corset's boning. You won't be getting this off without my permission, young lady~"
"But I wasn't going to take it off anyhow..." I protested but still picked up the gloves off the table. Matsuko held them open and I pushed my hands into them. They closed into mittens at the ends, and she strapped my arms into them.
"What's important is that you don't have the choice. It's much cuter when you have to rely on me." She pulled my mittens behind me and pressed them together. These gloves were just like the ones I got at the convention, so they had integrated fasteners that held strong with just a press.
I squirmed at the thought, but didn't object further. Matsuko pulled the armbinder built into the wings around my arms and started to lace it shut. A few minutes later, my arms were laced, zipped, strapped, and locked away, hidden into the wing design. I decided to give Naruyo's claim a little test just for curiosity and flexed my arms, but I quickly found that there was no give whatsoever. This armbinder was even more overwhelmingly secure than the one from the convention, and it didn't even have a harness to strap to.
"Ah.. This.." I let out a little squeak of displeasure.
"It's good, right? This feeling is exactly what you are searching for for your training, correct?" I was seen through so easily that it caused me to turn scarlet immediately and try to hide my face. "It's no use to hide, you're in my room after all. Now, shall I punish you a little?"
She pressed her fingers together and rubbed them a little in one direction and, to my surprise, the vibrators in between my legs started buzzing softly.
I yelped audibly and pressed my legs together. "Ah! How did.. I thought you got rid of the remote..."
Matsuko smiled and held my chin with her hand. "Of course not. This is my most important possession, the key to Ko-chan's heart. How could I possibly get rid of it? I just moved it to a safer place where no one else can take it from me."
"The key to my heart?" My heart skipped a beat as I tried to work through the meaning, but after a few seconds I frowned. "Hey! You're teasing me again!"
"Ah, I was caught. I can't believe it. What will I ever do." She gave me a little pat on the behind and opened the door, pushing me out into the hall.
"Wait, you can't leave me like this!" I turned around, still blushing due to the vibrations.
"Hmm, you're right. It's totally unbalanced." She pressed her fingers together again and my nipples started to buzz softly as well. "Much better. I'll be out in a few minutes, so you guys should get ready to go to school. I know you need a few minutes to get in your car seat."
"Argh, I'm not sitting in that thing anymore!" I shouted back at the door as it was closing.
"No one's forcing you, Ko-chan, sit in it if you want, don't sit in it if you don't want." The door shut for good.
