Ko-chan’s Chronicles

It took all day, but I finally managed to get Naruyo's approval. I could walk or run as fast or slow as I wanted, and my maximum speed, while not nearly as fast as Naruyo's, would certainly look like teleporting to a mortal.

"Good. Rest. See Matsuko." Naruyo smiled softly and left me alone. I laid back on the ground and thought about the last day or two. This training would have seemed absurd two days ago, but now, it was my reality. Did I really transcend mortality? Was the entire student council the same as me? How many other people were like the current me?

I had a lot of questions, but none of the answers. I would need to ask Matsuko to clear up any doubts. I got to my feet and headed for the door, but I stopped when I entered the next room.

If I had a lot of questions before, now I have a mountain of them. A mountain as big as the pile of peanuts sitting next to Hinari, that is.

"Um.. Hinari-chan?" I greeted her as I approached.

"Oh...Ko-chan...Looking nice today..." She seemed exhausted, depressed, and extremely frustrated all at the same time.

"What happened to you? Why are you naked? Have you been crying? What's with... these?" I rapidly fired off all of my questions one after another.

"This is...Matsuko's training for me. I have to fish all of these peanuts out of my inventory before I can cut myself free. It will make me stronger. I can't fail again like I did two nights ago." She shifted uncomfortably on the ground, unable to really find a place that didn't grind the crotch rope into her privates.

"Um... I haven't thanked you yet. I heard you suffered a lot to save me when I awakened. Thank you, Hinari-chan." I kneeled down next to her and rubbed my face on hers. It was a bit of an awkward gesture, but with both of us bound, there was no way to have an embrace. Hinari blushed when I backed away.

"D-d-don't mention it, I just did what any friend would do!" She seemed unprepared for the sincere gratitude.

We stared awkwardly at each other for a few seconds before I broke the silence again. "So.. Hinari-chan, you had an inventory? I didn't know about it at all!"

Hinari coughed and looked guilty, "We agreed to not use our powers in front of you since you were a mortal. Of course, some of us broke that rule a bit more than others."

I laughed. "It's fine, I don't blame you, it's just so cool. I want an inventory too! Can you show me?"

Hinari seemed embarrassed, "It's not that special.. right now all I can store are peanuts... but if you still want to see, then, watch closely." She activated her power and a peanut appeared in her hand, which she then dropped to the floor.

I gasped. "Wow.. That's incredible! How does it work?"

Hinari seemed a bit confused. "Um...I'm not really sure how to explain it. I've been able to do it since I awoke in grade school. I was having a dream where I was about to show something off in class, but then I realized I had forgotten it at home... I wished really hard for the thing I wanted, and it appeared in my hand."

I continued to ask, "So, you just wished to have something? That seems a bit vague... Can you put them away too?"

Hinari frowned. "I'm only gonna do this once, cause I have no idea how many more peanuts Matsuko shoved into my inventory." She picked up one of the peanuts from the floor and with a little flash of magic it disappeared

I watched with an intense gaze. "Hmm, so the magic just sucks it in, but where does it go?"

Hinari laughed. "Subspace is a special dimension. Consider it a locked vault that only I have the key to. Well, I guess Matsuko has the key now too..." She smiled wryly at the second part.

"A locked vault only for me that only one person has the key to..." That description gave me an idea, so I closed my eyes and concentrated.

"Wait, you can't be about to---" Hinari seemed to realize what I was going to do and cried out in surprise.

The book said I could ignore all restraints, but based on what my powers have been so far, it doesn't mean that literally. Instead, it allows me to do the things I wanted to do, but couldn't do because of the restraints. If, instead of thinking "I wish I could escape my restraints", "I wish I didn't have to spend so long putting on and off my tutu", could I just store it somewhere until I need it again? It would mean I could do things like take a shower much more frequently. Right now it takes almost an hour to get dressed, which means I only get free roughly every few days. After all, I don't want to waste My Lady's valuable time.

As I thought the reasoning out in my head, I could feel my magic start to flow along with it. The logic formed a completed magic circle in my imagination and when I willed it, my entire body lit up with black light. I could feel an incredible suction, and when the light faded I was kneeling there naked in front of Hinari.

"...I knew it! Did you come here just to steal my ability? Can't you let me just have one cool thing of my own?" Hinari exploded with frustration as she watched my new power activate.

"B-b-ut...Hinari-chan has always been cool! I thought you were cool long before I knew about your inventory! You were always the first one to stand up and protect me!" With my arms free for the first time in a while, I decided it was time to give out my first hug.

"T-t-that...wait...stop..." Hinari's face blushed bright red as I embraced her.

"No matter what happens, you will always be the strong and cool Hinari-chan to me. So don't feel so down on yourself. Just keep working hard, I'm sure you'll manage to become the you that you are envisioning." For the first time I could remember, I was the one hugging someone and whispering in their ear. It felt pretty good, I suddenly understood why Matsuko liked to do it so much.

"Wah, we're both naked now, stop hugging me!" Hinari was trying to change the topic because she couldn't withstand my feelings, and I let her off with just this.

"So we are, but you know what? I don't care, because Hinari-chan is my friend." I grinded a little more on her body and gave her a kiss on the cheek before getting up and looking around.

"I suppose I should go tell Matsuko about the power I just discovered. Good luck on your training, Hinari-chan, I'm rooting for you!" I gave her a little wink and headed to find Matsuko, leaving a Hinari whose brain melted down on the floor.

* * *

I banged on Matsuko's door in the nude. "My Lady, I found a new power, come see!"

"Wait how are you---" I could hear the sound of Matsuko's voice before the door even opened. She stared for several seconds before speaking "I guess that explains how you could bang on my door then. I'll be expecting an explanation, of course." She immediately scooped me into a princess carry and took me into the room.

"Hey! I have feet, I can walk!" I protested my treatment as I hung onto her neck.

"You may be able to walk, but you aren't supposed to be able to talk, little girl." Matsuko kept walking and put me on the bed before sitting down on a chair opposite me.

"That's the thing, I learned how to take my costume off on my own!" I smiled triumphantly. After all, Naruyo guaranteed her outfits were absolutely impossible to escape on my own.

Matsuko frowned. "And just how did you manage to do that? Escaping your tutu is no small feat with how much effort Naruyo put into it."

"Oh, that's the thing. I said I took it off, I didn't say I escaped. I suppose I'm still wearing it, in a way?" I tried to explain, but I don't think I made any sense.

"Hinari was practicing her inventory skill, and I was watching her do it, then I had the thought, 'Changing my clothes takes so long, it would be much easier if I had an inventory.' After that, my whole outfit got sucked inside me and here I am." I excitedly explained how I learned about the inventory.

"So... you created an inventory just for your clothing? Can you put it back on when you want?" Matsuko seemed a bit impressed.

"Hmm, I think so, let me try." I recreated the same magic circle inside my mind, but this time spun it in reverse. With the same flash of black light, it all came streaming back out. All the tape wrappings, all the restrictive laws, all the tight laces, straps, and locks. In a second I was completely locked back into my outfit like I was before.

"I did it, My Lady!" I shifted back to telepathy as needed.

Matsuko laughed like she had already won. "So you did, my cute Little Duck~" As she said this, I felt the magic circle fade from my mind and reappear around Matsuko's finger.

"Ah! Wait! You tricked me!" I realized what happened a second later and could only vent my frustration out at Matsuko since I couldn't use my arms again.

"Of course I did. Nothing has changed since we've met, and you are still an easy mark." Matsuko hugged me and gave me a kiss.

"This isn't faiirr, that's my power, I only got to use it once!" I kept pouring my grievances out onto Matsuko's shoulder

"It is your power, and it is a brilliant power at that. Only you could turn the desire for a shower into a power like an inventory. Honestly, I'm in awe." Matsuko started her sweet words attack once again, and my heart skipped a beat.

"Of course, a power this amazing can only be wielded by the worthy. The things I've locked, do you think I'll let anyone other than me unlock them? You can't do anything but stay as my cute little fairy until I decide to let you out." Her head rubbing and soft whispers were making my head buzz, and I could feel my cheeks begin to heat up. Also I felt..a buzzing between my legs?

"M-my Lady, don't turn on th---" My telepathy faded away as the vibrations inside my tutu grew more vigorous. I closed my eyes to try and tune out the vibrations and the compliments swirling around my head, but all I heard was "[Look at me.]" My eyes snapped open and I couldn't look away from Matsuko's eyes.

"That's right, you're so cute when you try to escape, you're the cutest when you try to escape. That's why I can never let you free, because I am the most selfish person in the world."

Her words and the vibrators combined to turn my entire mind fuzzy, and I had a thunderous climax in her arms. She held me tight, but she didn't stop her hands, leading me back down the road again and again.
