Another Disquieting Premonition

Unknown

2nd Person POV

"What...What is this?" You asked, looking around within the total darkness.

The air around you was cold. That path before was pitch black. Yet slowly, it began to become clear. Revealing a long, never ending tunnel with countless spiked extensions pointing out of the walls.

"The hell is this place?" You question. "Starvlador? Any idea-?" You look down to your Sacred Gear, seeing your right hand, completely normal, back to is human shape. "What the-?!"

"Re-Me!"

A faint deep echo pulsates through the whole cave.

You tensed up, a dark and looming presence all over the cave.

"-Lease...Me!"

The pressure from the words alone began to weigh you down, as if you were sinking in a never ending abyss.

"Release...Me!"

"Who...Who are you?!" You yelled.

The floor before you gave way, creating a massive hole in the ground. From within, a massive cloud of darkness emerged from below, slowly taking form of a giant being.

"RELEASE ME CHILD OF THE TRAITOROUS SIN!!!" The massive being of darkness lunged it's hand towards you.

You fell petrified by the mere presence of this unknown being. Unable to move a single muscle. This apparent nightmare would appear to end with your death at this hands of this being.

"ARK!!!"

Suddenly, a bright light exploded before you, shielding you from the encroaching darkness.

"GET AWAY FROM HIM!!!"

You heard a voice yell. A man's voice. Both familiar yet unknown to you.

"Huh?"

"SWEETHEART, YOU HAVE TO LEAVE!!! GO!!! RUN!!!" Another voice yelled. A woman's, filled with worry and fear.

The two jumped in front of you, their figures hidden by the ball of divine light in front of them. They turned around and looked to you. Their faces, though difficult for read were filled determination as they pushed the ball of light forward, holding the hand of darkness back.

"GO!!!" They ordered, the blinding light grew, encasing them them both as they pushed it forward.

Reality

You suddenly awaken in a frantic panic. Your breath quick and difficult to catch. "Jesus Christ!!" You groaned as you wiped your face. You release heavy sigh, looking at the calander at your nightstand, seeing the marked day. 'March 13...' You looked to your phone, double checking the date and confirming. "Yep...It is." You turned over and became suffocated in something soft, silky smooth and warm. You opened your eyes, seeing a bare pair of breast in your face. "Alright, I know I'm not dreaming, and not a pervert, so why am I waking up to boobs in my face?" You ask, your face donning a faint red tint of embarrassment.

A gentle moan arose bringing you in closer as she snuggled with you.

"R-Rias?!" You yell in surprise.

The Princess of Ruin slowly opened her eyes. Spotting you in her arms, she smiled happily. "Morning cutie." She greeted.

"Uh...Y-Yeah, morning." You replied back. "So...I take it you chose to sleep in my room...Again..."

Rias giggled. "I did. I'm sorry I was so late. But by the time I came up you were already asleep, so I decided to let myself in."

"Okay. That's fine, but that's not really the problem here." You reply, trying to avert your gaze to the pair of breast resting against your chest.

Rias looked down to you, nuzzling you closer into her chest as she smiled with contentment. "Oh, I couldn't help myself. I felt like sleeping with you as a hug pillow."

"How is that any different from any other night?" You mumbled. "Seriously, does Asia even know about this?"

She suddenly rolled over, laying on top of you with her leg between yours, resting right against your privates.

You jumped to the sudden sensation, trying your hardest to control yourself.

"(Y/N), we've still got some time. Do you think something sexy would help deepen communication with my wonderful and beloved servant?" The redhead whispered before planting a kiss onto your forehead.

"I-uh...I may be familiar with the supernatural, but I'm still learning about devils and stuff. So...I dunno..." You gulped.

"Then you wanna come at me?" She asked.

Your eyes widened to the notion.

"Don't worry..." Rias rose up, mourning herself on your slowly hardening member. "I'm willing to do anything for you as long as it make you happy." She leaned down and wrapped her arms around your neck, gently kissing and suckling on your neck.

'Ho shit! Calm down (Y/N)! Keep it together!! KEEP YOUR FUCKING MORNING WOOD UNDER CONTROL!!!' You ordered yourself.

Suddenly, a knock emanated from the door, startling the two of you.

"Are you up yet, (Y/N)?" Asia asked. "It's almost time for your morning training!" She informed.

"Oh shit, Asia!" You jumped.

"Oh, well shoot; I completely forgot about the training." Rias admitted.

You simply look at her in doubt. "Really? You forgot about the morning training? The thing we've been doing since before you moved in? I find that hard to believe." You looked at the redhead sternly.

Rias stuck her tongue out playfully and winked, proving she was fibbing.

"(Y/N), can you hear me? Are you awake?" The innocent devil asked.

"Y-Yeah, I'm up. Just gimme a sec, 'kay?"

"Asia, do you mind waiting another moment. (Y/N) and I need to get ready; we're both still in bed."

'...GOD DAMN IT!!!' You cursed to yourself.

The door suddenly open, revealing a devastated Asia dressed in her gym clothes on the other side.

You quickly sat up, smiling and waving to your friend. "Hey, Asia. Morning! How'd you sleep?" You asked nervously.

"I hope you're doing well today." Rias greeted casually.

Asia suddenly looked as though she was going to break down in tears.

You panicked. "THIS ISN'T WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE, I SWEAR!!!"

"Whatever; I'm taking my clothes off too!!" Asia declared.

"BUT WHY THOUGH?!" You questioned.

"I swear I'm not gonna be left out anymore!!" She declared as she removed her shirt and revealing her bare chest as she rushed to the bed.

"WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?!" You asked before being tackled by the blonde.

"Hey, Asia! No fair! Don't hog him all to yourself!!" Rias ordered as she piled onto you as well.

"Guys, come on! Not this early in the morning!!" You begged as your tried to break free from the girls' hold.

"Well now..." Isabela smiled as she leaned against the door, rearing nothing but a long white dress shirt that was hardly buttoned. "If these are the kind of mornings that are in store for us, then Siris and I are gonna love living here."

"Come on." Siris said. "We've got a lot to do today. So get dressed so we can go."

"Yeah yeah. I'm on it." Isabela waved. "Best of luck, lady killer (Y/N)."

"Help...me..." You struggled.

After, what seemed like hours of forced cuddling, you finally made it out of Asia's and Rias' hold and out the house to meet up with Issei for the morning training.

"Mornin'!" He greeted. "Woah, dude what happened? You don't look so good."

"...I don't want to talk about it."

Arturia took a large gulp of the miso soup and smile happily. "Amazing!" She praised, her ahoge wagging like an excited dog's tail. "You're food is always incredible Lady Rias!"

"No joke. This miso soup is really good. I don't even think I could come close to beating this. It's really delicious!" You praised.

Rias looked over to you and smiled happily. "Thank you. You're so sweet."

You smiled back, quickly feeling a twisting pain from your right arm as Asia pinched you.

"W-Well, let's not forget Asia." You said. "She's been a big help around the house big time. Helping with all the cooking and cleaning, laundry, all that stuff. Makes life easier for everyone. I know I appreciate you." You smiled through your pain.

Asia's cheeks grew a faint blush at your praise. "Well, you've done so much for us, so it's only natural." She smiled happily.

You sighed in relief.

"Oh, by the way!" Rias spoke. "I was wondering if it would be okay for the others to come here for our meeting today?" She asked.

"You want to meet here?" You asked. "I guess that's fine. Any particular reason why?"

"The old school building is having its annual spring cleaning, so the Occult Research Club won't be able to met there this afternoon."

"Having the club meeting at home seems like fun!" Asia exclaimed excitedly. "I can help host it. Want me to make sure the tea is ready?" She asked with eagerness.

"Oh yes." Rias nodded. "That would be wonderful, Asia." She agreed

Kouh Academy

As the troupe of Gremory devils walked through the entrance of the academy, Rias continued to hug on (Y/N)'s arm for the entire duration of the trip while Asia climbed onto his other.

It immediately angered many of the students. Some even gripped silently.

"Can't believe that guy!" A male student glared.

"First he was walking beside Rias, now they're arm and arm!" Another hissed.

"Now he's got two girls on his arms?! It's bullshit!! What's he got that we don't?!" Another yelled.

"It's not fair!" A female student cried.

"I thought I had a shot! Not fair!" Another cried.

"I knew I should've asked him out before it was too late!" Bellowed another.

Through all the surrounding commotion, (Y/N) continued to grow uncomfortable. 'It's getting worse and worse every day...'

"Well well, I thought it might be the hot new couple causing the uproar." Someone greeted from behind.

Everyone turned and saw Sona Sirti approaching them.

(Y/N) rose a brow in confusion. "Couple?" He asked, looking at Rias and Asia, quickly connecting. "Oh, we're not-"

"Sona! Good morning!" Rias greeted.

"H-Hello Miss Sitri!" Asia bowed.

"Good morning everyone! But remember, it's Shitori in public. Wouldn't want to be targeted at school now would we?" Sona reminded jokingly.

"O-Oh! Right. Sorry." The blonde sulked.

"Not targeted while in school huh? Gonna have to tell me what that's like." (Y/N) replied.

Sona gave the Azure Dragon Emperor a sympathetic smile. "I've heard you've had it rough this past week. Sorry to hear."

"Nothing I'm not used to. Trust me." He replied, a loud grumbling echoed from his stomach. He looked down to his gut and rubbed it. "Guess I'm still hungry." He said, patting his belly.

Sona giggle, reaching into her bag and pulling out a small packet of wafer cookies. "Well, if you're still hungry, you can have some of these."

(Y/N)'s eyes went wide at the sight of his favorite sweet treat. "Wafers?!" He stared.

"Yeah, Tsubaki won a whole box of them at the shopping district so she gave me some." The bespectacled devil informed.

'¥1,000 she gave some to Kiba too.' (Y/N) smiled.

"Anyways, you're welcome to have some if you'd like." She offered.

(Y/N) nearly accepted, but quickly remembered the "incident" that arose when it involves Sona Sitri and pastries. "Are they...you know..." He said, giving some subtle cues.

Sona blushed as she remembered, but shook her head. "No, they aren't. They're clean."

"Welp, don't mind if I do!" The young devil-dragon hybrid smiled happily as he took a wafer cookie, biting into the top as he ate it with glee. "Oh man, I love these things!"

"You ladies want some?" Sona asked Asia and Rias.

"Oh thank you." Rias thanked as she took a strawberry flavored wafer.

"Thank you very much!" Asia thanked as she took a vanilla flavored wafer like her guardian.

"HOLD IT!!!" A loud voice boomed. The devils looked over and saw a student standing before them and blocking the entrance. "I think I can speak for everyone when I say we've had enough of you hogging all the girls to yourself!! It's time someone taught you not to monopolize what doesn't belong to you!!" He declared, pointing at (Y/N), who stared back in boredom. "I, Kitsuke Hishigoro, martial arts student of the Praying Mantis Style: Praying Mantis Fist, shall teach you that lesson persionally!!"

(Y/N) watched on, simply breaking off the piece of the wafer cookie he bit into from the rest with a bored and deadpanned expression on his face. "Rias, Miss Shitori, permission to dispose of the nuisance?" He asked rather coldly.

His sudden change in mannerism shocked the girls. They looked to each other, unsure of how to proceed.

"I-I suppose. Just...Don't go overboard." Sona said.

"Oh don't worry..." (Y/N) said, finishing the rest of his treat. "This'll be quick and painless."

The student crouched down, quickly punching forward to begin his assault. "TAKE THI-!!"

In a single second, everything turned black in a mere instant as the martial artist student laid unconscious in a small crater and a pool of his own blood, a handprint indentation on his face.

"Painless for me anyways..." The young devil said as he walked off into the school.

The girls watched on as he left, worried by his cold and ruthless personality.

"That was...different." Sona noted.

"I guess he still hasn't gotten over the Road Trip. Oh (Y/N)..." Asia worried.

'(Y/N)...' Rias fretted.

After things finally settled down, (Y/N) simply went about his day as usual. It was the free period and he simply laid his head on his desk, staring out the window in thought. "That dream..." He mumbled, remembering fragments of his most recent dream. "It felt so real. I know I've had some crazy dreams before; but this felt different. Almost like that woman I keep seeing in The Final World...Maybe I should ask Chisato. Maybe she knows something-"

"Hey (Y/N), what you smilin' like a bitch for, so-?!" Matsuda reaches for the devil in contemplation's ear, only to be grabbed suddenly by the wrist.

"You best be trying get a bug off me. Otherwise I'm gonna break your hand." (Y/N) warned.

"Woah! Dude, relax it's just us!" Issei said in worry.

"Oh!" (Y/N) released Matsuda, who rubbed his pained wrist. "Sorry about that."

Motohama approached his desk and slammed his hands onto it. "Listen, we need to talk!" He demanded.

"'Bout what?" (Y/N) asked.

"There have been some rather odd rumors about you lately, so you might want to be more careful." He warned.

"Rumors?" He rose an eyebrow in confusion. "What rumors?"

"One, for example, you're messing around with super hot ladies and following the path of certain evil!!" Motohama declared as he shifted his glasses.

"...Huh?" The young devil questioned if bafflement.

"Yeah yeah. For real!" Matsuda interjected. "And like, uh, you're using Rias and that fly ass Akeno's secrets as blackmail for some real nasty erotic shit, man!!"

"Ex-fucking-scuse me?!"

"On top of that, you're nothing more than a villain!" Motohama added. "One who has even turned his perverted eye to the school mascot, Koneko Toujou. It's being said you devoured her prepubescent body like a wild beast!!"

"Okay, now that's just plain sick." (Y/N) groaned.

Further off in the classroom, Asia, Katase and Murayama and some other girls were simply chatting.

"Asia, you're hair is like the prettiest, ever." Katase complimented.

"Oh, I don't think so at all." Asia replied in modest honesty.

"Shut up. I would kill for blonde hair like that." Murayama said playfully.

"Right?" The bespectacled brunette with golden yellow eyes, the school's second biggest pervert, if not more so than Issei Hyoudou, Aika Kiryuu joined in on the conversation. "And, all the boys are enchanted by your hair, too."

Asia looked to Kiryuu in confusion. "They're enchanted?"

"Besides that, your bent sexual freakiness be all up in Asia's business, and that honey just got here!!" Said Matsuda.

"What the fuck are you talking about?!" (Y/N) replied.

The two perverts simply smiled in smugness.

"Confession; we're the ones spreading those rumors." Motohama claimed.

The two were immediately met with (Y/N) punching them both back to the wall, rendering them a smoking mess.

"I should've fucking known!!" (Y/N) growled.

Issei simply laughed that the events before him.

Motohama and Matsuda quickly recovered and ran back to the (H/C)'s devil's desk.

"Snap! If you don't let us do-you know-we won't be able to handle this enviousness!!" Matsuda yelled, blood leaking from his head.

"For the son a temple owner, you sure think about sex a lot." (Y/N) claimed.

"Yeah, and it may already be too late, see?!" Motohama added, blood also dripping down his head.

"You guys are bleeding all over the place. Come on." (Y/N) pointed out.

The two perverts took a moment to while away the blood, only to continue their berating.

"You done?" (Y/N) asked.

"Chill, brother! We're not just spreading rumor about girls." Matsuda said with a cheeky smile, as did Motohama.

"...What?" Both Issei and (Y/N) questioned.

"We're also tellin' people you, Kiba and Issei are gay for each other and shit!"

"Did you know some girls are into that sort of things?"

"What?!" Issei roared. "DON'T FUCK WITH ME!!!"

"So, the Four Stooges have given in to their primal urges and are talking about sex, now?" Asked Kiryuu as she approached the boys.

"Aika?"

"Kiryuu?"

"Oh god..." (Y/N) groaned.

"So, (Y/N), when are you finally gonna grow a pair and ask me out?" The brunette asked.

"Oh, you know, probably around the same time I choose drown myself in a pool of bleach." He replied. "So you know, whenever I get around to it. Most likely never."

Kiryuu clicked her tongue. "Asia, there are so many nice boys around. You don't have to waste you're time with that douche as a boyfriend."

Asia immediately became flustered. "What do you mean "boyfriend"?!"

"Hey, I'm just helping her because she's new to the country and she has nowhere else to go. I'm not her boyfriend. And who're you calling a douche? Last I checked, you're the one who started this little feud between us Kiryuu." (Y/N) said as he rose up from his seat.

The lady pervert giggled. "Oh, I know. And don't think I appreciate the little effort you put in. But let's be real, you'll never beat me." She proclaimed as she crossed her arms.

"I don't need to beat you. I just need to shut you up." He growled.

The two began to stare each other down. Sparks flew viscously from their gazes.

Kiryuu suddenly grew a mischievous smirk, instantly making (Y/N) worried. "If you two aren't dating, then why are you always all over each other? I mean, the whole school agrees. There's no way you two aren't having relations like every night."

"Relations?!" The two perverts looked to each other in shock.

"What's that?" Asia asked curiously.

(Y/N) sighed in agitation. "Do you hear the shit you say some times? We're just friends, okay. Get that through your head-?!" He suddenly felt a sharp and burning pain erupt from his right arm. The pain slowly maked its way up to the right side of his face and to his right eye. 'Shit!' He cursed. He put his hands and his pockets and began to take his leave. "Whatever, I need to get to my appointment with Ms. Hasegawa." He said as he walked to Asia and Issei.

"What's up?" Issei asked quietly.

"My eye and arm. I gotta see Akeno." He informed.

"Oh, okay." Asia accepted as she watched her friend and guardian leave the classroom.

"What's his problem, yo?" Matsuda asked.

"Probably didn't get enough sleep last night." Issei replied. "You guys know how he can get when he's sleepy."

"Yeah, true enough." Matsuda nodded.

"Guess teasing him didn't exactly help, huh?" Motohama asked, feeling rather guilty.

"So you're telling me you guys seriously aren't together at all?" Kiryuu asked Asia, still unconvinced.

"Do what?" The innocent devil asked.

"Come on Asia, admit the truth..."

Asia quickly became flustered.

"You-" The lady pervert's mouth was quickly covered by the embarrassed Asia, preventing her from reminding her of what she already knew.

"Aika stop it! I don't want you to say that stuff anymore!"

The two perverts began to cry in jealously. "WHY IS IT ALWAYS HIM?!"

'(Y/N)...I can't imagine what you're going through this time. But you've gotta start letting me in again so I can help bro.' Issei worried to himself.

ORC Headquarters

(Y/N) simply stay in silence on the sofa. A mere towel wrapped around his waist and nothing more. His head hung low to hide his slightly flustered face. 'I know this is normal for the ceremony, but there HAS TO be another way to do this.' He thought as he looked to his slowly transforming right hand to Sacred Gear.

The door opened and closed, prompting the young devil to look back, only to witness a form of beauty.

"Sorry about the wait." Akeno said, donned in a rather soaked white robe. She romoved her orange bow, letting her magnificent raven black hair fall.

"I-It's okay. I'm sorry for calling you out so suddenly. And by text no less." He apologized. "Couldn't risk going to see you with my Dragon features coming back so quickly. Had to get somewhere safe as quickly as possible." He explained. "Sorry I didn't give you much time to prep."

Akeno simply giggle. "It's okay. I'm just glad you told me before it got too bad." She assured. "Besides, it's hardly your fault, (Y/N)." She knelt down, gently stroking the young devil's draconian hand. "Now...Let's get this started."

(Y/N) looked to Akeno with flustered uncertainty.

The amethyst eyed ravenette noticed. "Oh no, what's wrong?" She asked.

"It's just...You're still wet and all." He said. "And I can kinda see...You're stuff...through your robe."

Akeno giggled. "I only had time to grab a quick shower before the ceremony. I didn't have time to dry my body properly." She explained, she explained as she slowly began to caress the young Dragon Emperor's claw. "Is it distracting?"

(Y/N) remained silent. "I mean...It's not like I dislike it or anything." He admitted.

Akeno giggled once again. "The issue is with your dragon features' magical energy. From what you've said, you were able to maintain your arm longer because you offered it years ago, so you had time to acclimate to it's power. But since you offered your eye as well, the exceeding power is too much to contain on such a short amount of time. Especially with its ability to constantly increase your power as you use it. You're far stronger than any of us expected. Changing its shape with magic was only effective temporarily. Sucking it out from your fingers is the only way to clear everything out." She explained.

"I have to ask, are you sure there isn't another way to dispel the dragon energy? I mean, I know I haven't had to lately because there was no reason to, so I just thought..." (Y/N) trailed on.

Akeno giggled once again. "Unfortunately, I don't know of any." She said. "But I mean, why would we want to do anything different?" She asked. "I love doing it with you~" She said seductively.

(Y/N) gulped nervously.

Akeno smiled, a look of lust in her eyes as she placed his index finger into her mouth.

(Y/N) lightly jumped at the sudden wet and warm sensation.

The process continued, and the excess magical energy was assuredly being drained out of (Y/N)'s body.

Akeno seemed to be enjoying herself a great deal. Moaning in pleasure as she continued to suck and slurp, pulling his finger deeper into her mouth the longer she went.

'Okay...Calm down. This is just standard procedure. Forget how good it feels!!' He thought to himself.

Akeno let up, locking a train of saliva off as giggled up at her flustered underclassmen. "Honestly, it's just a simply procedure; you're getting so flustered so easily it make me want to taunt you even more."

"Please...For the love of god...Don't." (Y/N) panted.

"Oh I'm just teasing." The Queen admitted, as she played with her breasts. "Trust me, if you could see your face right now, you would totally get it. I'd be remiss if I didn't torment you more."

"Oh god! Please no!" (Y/N) begged.

Akeno rose up and leaned over, taking a seat on her underclassmen's lap. She leaned closer to his ear and whispered. "Guess what? I have a crush on this super cute guy, but he's totally clueless."

"W-Well, some guys are kinda blind to that sorta thing." (Y/N) advised.

Akeno said nothing and leaned closer, pressing her boobs onto his bare chest as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Her lower half rested on his leg.

(Y/N) jumped as he felt a sudden and familiar feeling on his leg. "Akeno...Please tell me you're at least wearing panties." He begged.

"Au naturel is all part of the ceremony." She claimed happily.

"You're kidding..." (Y/N) fretted.

"But, if I make a move on you, Rias will get jealous. And we both know what she's like when she's upset."

"Wait what? Why would she get jealous?"

Akeno grabbed (Y/N)'s hand and rose it to her face. "For now we better stand on ceremony." She said before taking her tongue and running it across (Y/N)'s palm.

(Y/N) moaned at the sudden motion.

Akeno went wild, placing his arm between her massive breasts, massaging it as she continued to lick every part of his hand. Often taking two finger in her mouth and bobbing her head up and down viscously.

'Okay, I know this is wrong but this feels incredible! Is it a bad thing if I'd say I want her to keep doing this?! Holy shit, this feels amazing!!' He thought, finally giving in to the pleasure in which Akeno had bestowed.

Finally, the ceremony was complete.

Akeno rose up, a thick trail of saliva remained. "The excess magical energy is gone. You should be fine, at least for a while." She said as she wiped away the trail of saliva.

"Yeah...Cool...Thanks Akeno..." (Y/N) thanked as his head steamed.

Akeno adjusted her rob. "Remember your battle with Phoenix?" She asked.

"Which one? The one where he dismembered me and burned out my eye or the one where I pummeled his face in and reduced him to an ember?"

Akeno giggled. "During the Rating Game, you got back up time and time again after being beaten down. You were the definition of manliness, (Y/N). And then, crashing the engagement party like you did to save Rias. Impressive. You even managed to defeat Phionex, who was rumored to be immortal." She looked back, a smile on her face. "After I got to see a gentlemen in such a brilliant fight..." She walked over to him, sitting on his lap once again as she rested her head in his bare chest. "Well, I don't know; I fell so-" She trailed off, rubbing her hand across. "I wonder...Could this...Be Love?" She asked. "Oh~I've missed you so much." Akeno whispered.

"What?"

Akeno quickly realized what she had said, leaning up at her confused junior.

"What'd you say?" He asked.

"I said..." She pondered, trying to think of something else to say. "I...said...I wanna kiss you."

"And I repeat, WHAT?!"

Suddenly the school bell rang, indicating the next class was about to start.

Akeno rose up and smiled to her Junior. "We should do this again sometime."

"I...Wouldn't be opposed I guess." (Y/N) replied.

Akeno smiled happily and proceeded to leave.

As she left, (Y/N) sat in silence, in thought. 'What was it that she said? She missed me? Did I...Did I know Akeno before I became a devil?' He thought, only to feel a sharp pain and loud ringing in his head.

"(Y/N), what's wrong?" Starvlador asked.

"Just...got a headache for a second I think." He replied. "How do you feel?"

"Felt a sudden loss of magical energy. What was that about?" The dragon asked.

"The excess magic was causing my body to change. It needed to be released. Akeno sucked it out." (Y/N) explained with a faint blush in his face.

"Damn kid! Look at you, getting used to being surrounded by girls. Even going as far as gettin' down and dirty with 'em! I'm so proud!" The True Dragon praised.

The young devil rose a brow. "I don't think I want to know what you're implying, because but I have a feeling I know. It wasn't like that. She literally sucked it out. From my fingers." He explained.

"Seriously?" Starvlador replied. "You mean you didn't do it the old fashioned way?"

(Y/N) immediately grew concerned. "Old...fashioned way?"

"Yeah. You know. The better way." He said.

(Y/N) said nothing in response. He knew what his dragon meant.

"I'm talking about sex-"

"I KNOW WHAT YOU MEANT!!!" He yelled. "And no, I'm not doing that." He declared.

"Really? I'm sure if you ask any of the girls, I'd bet you they'd be happy to do it."

"Not happening." He denied. "I'm not putting anyone through that. Last time I did, Tsukiumi couldn't walk for a whole week."

"Didn't sound like she hated it though." Starvlador replied cheekily.

"Doesn't make me feel any less bad about it." (Y/N) sighed. "Actually, I was wondering if I could ask you something."

"Hm? What is it?"

"It's about this dream I had." He said.

The dragon sighed. "Lemme get your dream journal."

"What? No, don't be weird. It's about what I saw." The young devil clarified.

"Uh more specific please. You're dreams usually have a lot of weird places in them. And you have a tendency to sink too deep into them." Starvlador said.

"It's was a cave. Incredibly dark, long tunnel with lost of holes and spikes. And, it felt hot and cold at the same time. And, there was this giant dark cloud thing inside. Tried to grab me telling me to free it. That help?"

"...Purgatory." Starvlador replied.

"What?"

"You were in Purgatory. A chaotic, hellish dimension where mutilated souls and predatory monsters seek prey, the air is scorching hot and freezing cold at the same time and the earth is toxic, together destroying the flesh and bone of the living; time is warped there, much like The Boundary. A minute in the real world could correspond to a year in there." Starvlador explained.

"But, isn't Purgatory somewhere you go after death? Did I die in my sleep?!" (Y/N) asked panicked.

"You were most likely brought there my something. Or someone." Starvlador said, worry in his tone. "You should talk to Chisato if you wanna find out more. She might know more than I do."

"Uh, right. Sure." (Y/N) replied, concerned with Starvlador's sudden change in behavior.

Nurse's Office

"You dreamt of Purgatory?!" Chisato asked, clearly surprised.

"Yeah. I think I was actually there. Do you think it means something?" He asked.

"The fact that you saw it, let alone went there in your dreams is odd. You're only able to go there if you die and you try to expiate their sins before ascending to heaven. But, in some cases, beings of uncontrollable evil are sealed away there." Chisato explained.

"Yeah. Starvlador thinks I was brought there by someone. But the who has me kinda concerned." He stared with concern.

"As it should. Most of the beings that are sealed away in Purgatory lose their magic. However, if a being was able to somehow keep their magic, they could break free if so desired."

"I don't think the one I met could though." The young devil replied.

Chisato looked confused. "How do you mean?"

"They told me to release them. Called me Child of the Traitorous Sin." He explained. "What if he's talking about that bastard?" He gripped his pants in anger. "What if he made a deal with that thing and now I have to pay it? Wouldn't surprise me at all knowing him, but still!"

Chisato looked to the floor, pondering the many possibilities. "I think I may have an idea as to what's going on."

(Y/N) jumped up with glee. "Really?!" He smiled.

"But I need to do some research to solidify my thesis. I'll do what I can and see what I can find. I'll let you know if I find anything."

"Got it. Thanks Chisato." (Y/N) smiled. Suddenly, he remembered something. "Also, I was wondering if you could help me with something else."

"Hm? What's that dear?" The Doctor asked.

"I was wondering if you had any other methods of suppressing my dragon energy. Trying keep my dragon parts contained is a lot harder now that I have two."

Chisato grew a sly yet seductive smile. "Oh? And I thought you'd enjoy Akeno's purification ceremonies~" She teased. "You could always ask her to do it the old fashioned way. I'm sure she won't mind in the least." She assured. "And if not..." She walked over, sat on his lap and hugged him tightly. "I'm more than willing to myself. But I have other, more pleasant methods than using the fingers~"

"Y-Yeah, I'm sure. But no. I'm not going to put my friends through that. Or you. Remember what happened last time I asked you during my Heat Cycle? Neither one of us could walk for days!!"

"But you loved it. I know you did~" Chisato smiled in excitement.

"Of course I did." He replied.

"Talking about our past encounters, our moments of passion like this...It's getting me so hot~" She moaned. "But alas..." She rose up and fixed her attire. "School hours aren't the best time to divulge in pleasure is it?" She asked. "Anyways, in regard to your request; the best idea I can think of is using illusion magic."

"Will that work?" (Y/N) asked.

Chisato smiled to her lover. "I'll think of something. You know I always come through. And in some cases cum first."

"Come on..." (Y/N) cringed.

Chisato giggled. "I'll think of some ideas and run some tests." She walked back over to the young devil and embraced him tenderly. "You know I've got you. I'll do anything to help you my love."

"Thanks Chisato. That means a lot. I love you." He said as he nuzzled into her neck as he returned the embrace.

"I love you too." She smiled, delivering a passionate kiss onto his lips, which were generously returned.

The two pulled away slowly, a thin trail of saliva still connecting them.

"You should head back to class. I'm sure friends are getting worried." She advised as she light fixed (Y/N)'s blazer.

"Right. Thanks Chisato!" He waved as he took his leave.

Chisato watched on until he was out of sight, her happy expression quickly turned to worry. She walked over to her desk and slammed her hands down, turning into angered fists. "That bastard. He failed get what he wanted from his son, so now he's going after his grandson?!" She looked up at the mirror, watching her hair turn from brown to golden blonde in an instant. She removed her glasses and stepped over to the window, staring out to the sky. "I'll make you pay for targeting him. Mark. My. Words."

Time Skip

(Y/N)'s House

School had finally ended. And as agreed, the meeting of the Occult Research Club was held at (Y/N)'s house. They all decided to meet in his bedroom.

"Well then, let's begin our regular meeting." Rias began, taking a seat on the bed she and (Y/N) slept. "This month's contract numbers are in." She announced. "Akeno eleven..."

"That's right!" The ravenette agreed.

"Koneko, ten..."

"Sounds good." Replied the Rook.

"(Y/N) got nine..."

"Yep Yep." He replied.

"Hey, way to go man!" Kiba praised with a fist bump.

"Isn't he just amazing?" Akeno praised.

"Thanks guys." The young devil smiled.

"Kiba has eight..."

"I did." He said.

"Three for Asia."

"Yay!" The bishop cheered.

"No way; that's really impressive, Asia!" Kiba said happily.

"Good for you, lady!" Akeno smiled. "You should be proud of yourself."

"Especially considering you're brand new at contracts." Koneko added.

"Oh my goodness! Thank you so much!" Asia smiled in sheer joy.

"And Issei..."

The brunette looked to his master. "Huh?"

The King took a sip of her tea. "Zero."

He groaned in disappointment. "I'm an embarrassment." He said.

"How're you not getting contracts dude? I'm with you half the time!" (Y/N) said, slowly realizing the issue. "Oh wait...Yeah, that might be the problem." He pointed out.

"You know, if you don't work hard and get contracts, you'll never become a high-ranking devil." Rias explained.

"Yeah yeah, I get it. Next month, I'm gonna do what it takes to get first place!" Issei declared.

(Y/N) simply stared as he took a long and loud sip from his tea cup. "Well...Can't help but admire that resolve."

The door suddenly opened. "Sorry to intrude, kids." Issei's mother entered.

"Oh, welcome to the meeting Mrs. Hyoudou." Asia greeted.

"Mom?!"

"Mrs. Hyoudou? What're you doing here?" (Y/N) asked.

"Oh you know, just our monthly check in. Want to make sure you're doing okay. Heard you went out of town with Issei and some of your friends on a road trip, so we didn't get a chance to see you." She explained.

"Ah, right...Forgot about that." He admitted.

"Well anyways, this little gathering is for the Insult Research Club, right?" She asked.

Issei just looked to his mother with a deadpanned and disappointed look on his face. "She's always so close, yet so very wrong." He gripped.

"At least she's trying." (Y/N) said.

"Well, I thought I'd bring you kids something that might inspire everybody!" She said, pulling out a collection of photo albums.

(Y/N) and Issei immediately grew terrified.

"What...Wha-What uh...W-Why...What um...What are those?" He stuttered in fear.

"Mom!" Issei yelled.

"So who wants to see (Y/N) when he was just a little boy?" Mrs. Hyoudou questioned.

"Oh sweet! I'm off the hook!" Issei cheered.

"NO!!!" (Y/N) roared in dismay.

It was too late. His friends quickly grabbed a photo album and began cycling through the pictures.

"Wow; he's completely naked." Akeno smiled as she looked at a young (Y/N) drying off after a bath. "Aw, So young and so adorable!"

"Kill me..." (Y/N) groaned as he laid lifeless on the ground, only to bang his head against the wall.

"The bare-nekkid truth about (Y/N)'s tiny past." Koneko said.

"Kill me..." (Y/N) groaned, banging his head against the wall once again.

"This one was from when he went to live abroad for sixth grade and his first year of middle school. Ms. Sunohara took such good care of him." Mrs. Hyoudou pointed out to another picture of (Y/N) surrounded by the girls who lived in the same building. "And as you can see, he was surrounded by girls even back then." She smiled.

"Kill me..." He banged his head again.

Rias looked absolutely infatuated at how adorable she saw (Y/N) as a child. "Oh no, it's a tiny itty witty bitty (Y/N)!" She smiled in utter joy.

"Kill me..."

"I totally agree with Rias!" Said Asia. "Tiny, itty bitty and cute!"

"I mean, right; he's just ridiculous. It's too much!" Rias squealed.

"I fucking hate today..." (Y/N) groaned.

"Hey man, anytime my childhood isn't on display is a good day in my books." Issei bragged.

"Fuck. You." (Y/N) replied. "Why did you have to dig this stuff up?" He asked Mrs. Hyoudou. "And more importantly, how do you even have this stuff?!"

"She seems like a great mother to me." Kiba said.

(Y/N) sighed in defeat. "Yeah..." He said as he rubbed the part of his head he had been constantly hitting. "She's pretty awesome."

"Yeah, must be nice to have a family." Kiba said solemnly.

"Well, we kinda are man." (Y/N) replied.

"Hey, (Y/N), this picture..." The Knight directed as he stared at the picture.

(Y/N) leaned over and saw the picture of him and a tomboyish looking girl with light brown hair and violet eyes smiling happily as she hugged him around his neck from behind. "Oh, that one? She's an old friend of mine. She, Issei and I played together all the time and went to the same school for years until she moved. She and I actually made a promise to each other before she left..." He paused, trying to recollect the promise. "What was it?" He pondered. "Man, it's been so long since I've seen her I can't remember."

"One more thing. Do you remember this sword?" Asked the blonde, his tone slightly shifting.

"Kinda. Her dad used to teach the both of us swordsmanship with it. Scabbard was on of course. But he did try and see if I could use it a couple times. But that's about it." (Y/N) explained.

"I guess anything's possible, huh?" He asked.

"What do you mean?"

"It's funny, I never expected to see it in a picture with you. Imagine that." He added.

"Again, what?" (Y/N) looked to Kiba with confusion and worry.

Kiba glared at the sword in the picture, a burning hatred seeping from his sharp blue eyes. "This is a Holy Sword." He claimed.

"Holy Sword?"

"Never mind. It's not a big deal." Kiba claimed, closing the album and handing it to (Y/N). "Great pictures! Thanks, man." He thanked as he gave a fake smile.

Time Skip

Night had finally fallen.

Issei and (Y/N) were headed towards their destination for a request. Specially calling the both of them.

"I have got to get a contract today. For crying out loud, even Asia is getting ahead of me at this point." Issei bickered as he jumped to the next roof top along with his friend.

"Hey Issei..." (Y/N) called out.

"What's up?"

"Is it just me? Or was Kiba acting kinda weird earlier?"

"Yeah, now that you mention it. He seemed a bit colder after looking through your pictures. I mean, I know you've lived a super crazy life with all kinds of BS, but was there something he saw that set him off?" He asked.

"Maybe..." (Y/N) pondered. He looked to the locator device and noticed they were getting closer to their destination.

"We're here." He said. Suddenly feeling a massive burst in magical energy coming from the building. 'Holy-That's a lot of magical energy! Who the hell is in here?! And why does it feel familiar?' He thought. 'Better stay on guard.'

Aozan Village Apartment Building

"Well, her we are." Issei said.

"Come on, let's get you a contract."

After entering the building, the two devils walked the halls of the luxurious apartment building in marvel.

"Man, this place is really upscale. Wonder what kinda person our client is." Issei wondered.

"Well, we'll find out in a sec." (Y/N) replied as he and his friend approached the appointment of the summoner. "Looks like this is the place." He said, ringing the bell. 'Seems to be the place of that huge energy too. Who the hell is in here?'

"They'll probably give us the "What kind of devil rings the doorbell" crap again." Issei bickered with an exasperated sigh.

"Do you...Do you get that kinda thing often?" (Y/N) asked.

"You don't?!" Issei asked.

(Y/N) simply shrugged his shoulders.

"Man..." The brunette sulked.

The door opened and revealed a tall man appearing to be in his twenties with an average build, black hair, golden bangs, black goatee, sharp violet colored eyes and donned in a grey robe.

"Hello!" (Y/N) greeted with a wave.

"What's up? You're the dude who summoned the devils, aren't you?" Issei asked casually.

'Wonderful start Issei.' (Y/N) thought as he watched.

"Now, I know this seems weird, but it's not!" The Red Dragon Emperor proclaimed as he raised his hands up in his defense. "We know how we're supposed to appear." He said as he pulled out on me of the flyers. "You know, like "BAM!!!" out of one of these magic card thingies, which is a hell of a lot cooler than ringing the doorbell, but we're in transition." He apologized with a sheepish smile.

"Well, you might as well come in." The client said.

The two looked to the man, surprised by his rather lax response.

"What's the problem?" He asked. "You're still devils, right?"

The two devils looked to each other, only to enter the client's abode.

"Go ahead and make yourselves comfortable." The man said as he walked off.

Issei and (Y/N) walked around the living room.

Issei quickly took a seat on one of the sofas. "This place is amazing." He awed.

"Yeah. It's really upscale." (Y/N) agreed. "Wonder what kinda stuff this guy does. Doesn't look like he's from around here."

A door opened and the client returned with a tray of glasses, peanuts, and a bottle of sake. "Something to drink, perhaps?"

"Oh, no thanks; I'd love to, but I'm still a minor." Issei turned down.

"I'll take one." (Y/N) accepted.

The brunette looked to his friend in utter shock. "Dude?!"

"What? It's what the client wants. Plus it's just one drink. Also, I can't even get drunk. It's just juice to me at this point." He defended.

"Can't get drunk huh? Interesting. Looks like I'll get to have fun tonight after all." The client smiled. "I was hoping to have some partners to drink with, Looks like I got my wish." He smiled as he took a seat on the other couch.

"So you wanted some devils to have drinks?" Issei questioned.

"What? Is that bad?" Asked the client.

"Not at all. After all, the contract will be completed once we fulfill your request and receive a fitting compensation in return." (Y/N) explained. Taking a sip from his glass.

The client began to set the glasses and drinks of the table. "Unfortunately, all I have is sake. You okay with tap water?" He asked Issei.

"Y-Yeah sure." He replied.

Time Skip

The client was laughing his heart out, he was clearly intoxicated by the look of his slightly flushed face. "So you're magic is so weak you have to ride a bike to go see the people who've summoned you?" He asked Issei.

"I used to, yeah. I've gotten used to traveling by foot though. Jumping on roofs and stuff." He Replied, his pride slightly wounded as he tried to stomach it for the sake of making a potential contract.

"And you can't go through the summoning circles because whenever you do, you get paralyzed?!" He asked (Y/N).

"Yeah, pretty much." He replied with a shrug as he drank his sake.

"That's hilarious!" The client laughed.

Issei just looked off to the sighed, an annoyed look in his eyes. 'Being laughed at like this will never not piss me off, but I don't really have much of a choice if I want that contract.' He thought.

The client sighed and began to calm down from his laughing fit. "Oh man, that was fun." He said happily. "So what would you boys like as compensation?"

The two devils looked to the man in surprise. Job completed so soon.

"What? Already?" Asked the Red Dragon Emperor.

"You're devils right? I guess you'll want my soul."

"Oh no, sir we don't do the whole "soul" thing." (Y/N) claimed. "Besides, all we did was have drinks with you. So, even if we did take souls, I don't think that would fit the contract."

"Oh." The man sounded disappointed. "That's unexpected."

"Yeah, I know. But regardless our master's motto is still "honest billing"." Issei explained.

"Well, will these suit your fancy?" The man asked as he pulled a large bottle of sake and handed it to the Azure Dragon Emperor.

'Dragonslayer?' (Y/N) read the bottle. 'Huh, that's ironic.' He thought.

"And for you..." The man addressed to Issei as he pointed to the paining behind him. "Will this suit your fancy? It's not a reproduction."

"Doesn't that seem kind of expensive?" He asked.

"I don't have anything else to pay you with at the moment." He explained. "If it won't work, I have my soul."

"Okay okay! We'll take the painting!!" Issei reluctantly agreed.

Time Skip

As (Y/N) and Issei wandered down the empty streets, the brunette had to continuously shift the position of the paining strapped to his back.

"That dude was crazy as hell." Issei said.

"Meh, I've had weirder contracts. As weird as Miltan is, my god is his sense of fashion and aesthetics amazing." (Y/N) said. "And hey, you finally forged your first contract. Way to go man!" He praised his friend.

"I guess you're right. It's finally one step further to my final goal!" The brunette said, a determined smile plastered on his face. "I'M GONNA BE HAREM KING OF THE WORLD!!!" He roared loudly.

(Y/N) said nothing in response, just sulked his head down in disappointment. "Should've guessed." He said. The phone in his pocket suddenly rang, catching the two by surprise. He pulled it out and saw it was Rias calling. "Hey, what's up?"

"We've got reports of a stray. It's been luring men into its layer and devouring them." She explained.

"Oh wow. Just like the one we first encountered." (Y/N) claimed.

"That's right. Hurry on over. We'll see you soon." She said a she hung up.

"What's up?" Issei asked.

"That was Rias. We got reports of a stray. Grab on. I'll track the other's energy signatures and teleport us there." He said.

Issei placed his hand onto his friend's shoulder and they instantly vanished.

Abandoned Warehouse

The two devils appeared via (Y/N)'s teleportation technique at the location of his fellow devils, and the supposed location of the stray devil.

"We're here." (Y/N) announced.

"(Y/N)! Issei! Over here!" Rias called from behind the broken barricade. "I'm sorry I had to make you two come out." She apologized.

"It's okay. This is part of our job after all." (Y/N) replied.

"There's somethin' going on inside there, huh?" Issei asked.

"No one can miss the smell of a rogue devil." Koneko commented.

"No kidding. We've been given orders to take it before the night is over." Informed the Queen.

"Whatever it is must be extremely dangerous. We shouldn't try to fight it inside." Rias suggested.

"So, what's the plan?" (Y/N) asked.

"Asia, you wait at the rear." She ordered.

"Yes ma'am!" Asia replied, looking rather pumped up.

"Akeno and I will be ready and waiting outside. So Koneko, Kiba, (Y/N), and Issei draw the enemy out where we can take care of it."

"Makes sense to me." Agreed Akeno.

"Right." Koneko nodded.

"We're on it! Ready bro?" Issei fist bumped his childhood friend. "Let's wrap this up Dragon Emperor style!! Boosted...Gear!!" He chanted, grinning out his Sacred Gear.

"Sure. Sounds fun." (Y/N) smirked. "Blazblue!!" He chanted, summoning his Second Liberation Sacred Gear while conjuring Oblivion into his other hand.

Kiba looked to the ground, his mind elsewhere and hardly paying attention.

"Kiba?" Rias called out.

"Yeah, right. Got it." He replied.

"Well, then let's roll out! Come on, guys!!" Issei cheered as he ran ahead.

"Wow, someone's sure excited." Akeno smiled.

"He's probably still excited about forging his first contract tonight. He'll be alright. Let's go." (Y/N) prompted as he ran off to join his friend.

Koneko followed soon after.

"Right." Kiba said, following after Koneko.

As the devils reached the door, Issei's mind began to race with anticipation. "Wonder what it'll be." He said. "Probably another crazy ass monster, right?"

"Doesn't matter. It'll die the same like all the rest." (Y/N) replied as he punched the metal door off their hinges. "Except the Behemoth. That thing was a bitch." He said as he entered the abandoned building.

"Let's go." Koneko motioned as she entered.

"Right!" Issei entered with the distracted Kiba following right behind.

The warehouse was like all the others they had entered before. Dark, cold, and in total ruin. A perfect den for devils turned monsters.

"I can't see shit in this place." Issei stated in irritation.

"Try using your devil senses dude. It he-" (Y/N) said before halting, spotting something over in the distance. He and Koneko readied themselves.

"Dude what?"

"It's here." Koneko claimed.

Behind a massive pipeline, a woman with white hair looked out from hiding. A beautiful yet deceiving expression for a stray, she looked to the devils as if she was scared. She stumbled out and instantly turned into a horned spider-like monster as she screeched hungerly.

"See, I told you!" Issei whined.

"Not anything new dude! Get ready!" The Azure Dragon Emperor prompted as he readied his stance.

The stray jumped up high, and crawled along the ceiling at terrifying speed.

"Kiba, focus." Koneko called out. "What are you doing?" She asked to no response. "Hey! Kiba!"

Kiba suddenly snapped out of his trance. "Sorry."

The stray, looming right above Koneko, shot an acidic projectile at Koneko, which was blocked by a barrier created quickly by the Azure Dragon Emperor.

"Try again, bitch!" He growled, lunging at the stray. Punching at it only to miss as it jumped out of the way as it descended.

Boost!

Issei stood ready to attack.

Explosion!

"Dragon..." Issei conjured as a condensed ball of dragon energy. "Shot!!" He roared, punching the ball.

The stray simply smirked as it smacked it away with ease.

"Damn it! I guess I haven't powered myself up enough yet." He said, looking to Kiba, who was still zoomed out and unfocused. "What are you zoning out for, princess?!" He yelled, to no response.

"KIBA!!!" (Y/N) roared.

Kiba finally came back to his senses. He quickly drew his sword and rushed to the stray devil, slicing its arm off with ease. Upon his landing, he tripped over an embedded pipe fixture and fell to his knees.

The stray lunged to the Knight and pinned him down.

"Kiba!!" The others called, in fear for his life.

The stray continued to bite at the blonde as it was held back as best as Kiba could muster, constantly chomping its long and sharp teeth at every opportune moment.

Koneko grabbed the stray's remaining arm and began to pull it up off her friend. "Time to go." She said, growing it up into the air.

Seeing an opportune moment to strike, (Y/N) readied himself. "Azure Dragon..." He chanted, charging magic into his leg as he shot himself toward the stray. "CYCLONE TALON!!!" He roared, shooting his leg into the monster's gut with a powerful cyclone covered kick, blasting them both through the ceiling of the building.

As he flew past the monster, it looked down and spotted Rias Gremory looking to it, a proud smile on her face.

"Akeno." She prompted.

Akeno, adorned in her shrine maiden attire flew high above in the sky, ready to act. "I'm all over it, Rias!" She assured, summoning a massive bolt of lighting.

(Y/N) quickly spouted his devil wings and raised his Oblivion. "BLACK LIGHTNING KING IRON HAMMER!!!" He roared, summoning a black and purple bolt of lightning from the sky and combining his attack with Akeno's.

"UNISON RAID!!! LIGHTNING CATASTROPHE!!!" They shouted in unison.

The charred body of the stray fell to the ground like a sand bag, turned over like a dead spider as it barely hung onto life by a thread.

"Wanton devil, you who ran wild away from your master to fulfill your own desires. For such a crime, you deserve to die a thousand times over." Rias declared as she slowly approached the charred stray.

(Y/N) landed next to her, readying his Oblivion to deliver the finishing blow.

"And now, in the name of the Marquis of Gremory. You shall pay with your life!! TIME TO DIE!!!" She roared, conjuring her Ruin Fire in the form of beasts.

"ENCHANTED HELL BLAZE!!!" He roared, unleashing the black and purple flames on his sword, combining the destructive capabilities of both Rias' and his attacks.

"UNISON RAID!!! RUIN BLAZE ANNIHILATION!!!" They chanted, as the stray became reduced to nothing. Not even ashes remained.

Everyone soon regrouped outside as the destruction on display from the King and Pawn's combined ;attack faded.

"Woah!! That was so sick!!" Issei cheered.

"That poor creature's heart is completely lost at this point. You could barely even call her a devil anymore." Akeno sympathized.

Issei shuttered ya the thought, a chill ran down his spin. "I don't want to end up like that."

"Now you know what deserves an emergency subduing order."

"Anyone injured?" Asia asked as she approached her friends.

"Thankfully, we all came out without a scratch." Issei smiled. "Well, I guess-"

Suddenly a loud smack echoed, gaining the attention of everyone around.

"Think you've got it together now?" Rias asked, clearly angered by Kiba's performance. "With a mistake like that, you put everyone here in serious danger!" She scolded.

"I apologize." Kiba replied sternly.

Rias' anger stemmed worry and turned into such.

Since earlier today, he had been acting strange and everyone knew.

"What's the matter, Kiba?" Kiba's King questioned with worry. "This isn't like you." She claimed.

"I'm fine; just having an off day." He replied coldly. "Now, if you will please excuse me, President." Kiba bowed as he took his leave.

"Kiba?" Rias watched, surprised by his sudden change.

Kiba continued to leave, not a single word more uttered. Not a look to anyone given. His cold demeanor was all his fellow devils saw.

"Kiba wait!" (Y/N) called out, managing to stop the blonde by grabbing his shoulder. "Dude, what's going on? You've been acting weird ever since the club meeting today. Then you act like that to Rias? What's going on, man? Talk to me."

"It's got nothing to do with you." He replied.

"That doesn't mean I can't be worried!!" (Y/N) yelled.

"Worried? Why would you ever be worried?" Kiba asked.

His question caught (Y/N) by surprise.

"Devils are, by nature, selfish beings."

"Yet, here we are. A world with selfless devils." (Y/N) replied.

"Well, for the record, I do think I was wrong." He admitted. "Later." He attempted to leave again.

"Just wait a second!" He stopped Kiba once again. "I know something's bothering you. Please, just talk to me about it. That's what friends do! We help each other!" The worried Pawn declared.

"Friends, huh? Right." He replied halfheartedly. "(Y/N), I appreciate your passion. However, something's recently been brought to my attention." He informed. His eyes turned cold, sharp with determination. Yet filled with utter hatred.

"Something like what?"

"A purpose." He replied. "See, I remembered my reason for living; that is to say, the reason I fight."

"The reason you fight?"

"That's right. All I want is revenge."

"Revenge?" (Y/N) asked, growing more worried for Kiba.

"It won't be much longer now. I'm going to destroy Excalibur. That alone is my purpose." He declared.

"Kiba..." (Y/N) stared at Kiba. "Living for the sake of revenge is a very dangerous path. It can end up getting you killed. Trust me. I..." He clenched his fists. "Know from experience."

"Then you understand why I can't stop." Kiba Replied.

"Kiba-!"

"Listen, this isn't any of your business. So just stay out of it." Kiba said, growing slightly angered by (Y/N)'s continued attempts.

"Well, I have a habit of making things my business. Especially when it comes to my friends."

"Well, this time. I suggest you stay out of it. For your own sake."

"That a threat?"

"No. A warning." He said before he took his leave, walking into the darkness of the streets.

(Y/N) watched on, feeling helpless as he watched his friend disappear. "Damn it." He felt his phone buzzing from his pocket. He pulled it out and saw the message on it.

"(Y/N), where'd Kiba go?" Asia asked.

"He left. I need to do the same too." He said, grabbing the bottle of Dragonslayer and placed his other hand in his pocket as he began walking off.

"Wait (Y/N)!" Rias called.

"I've got something I have to do before it gets too late." He said.

"But-" Rias spoke.

"I'll be home late. Don't wait up." He said as he teleported away.

Everyone grew more worried.

"First Kiba. Now (Y/N). What's going on with these guys?" Issei asked.

Rias looked down, having an idea as to why Kiba was acting strange. But (Y/N), as always, was unknown to her.

"Wait. What's the date today?" The brunette asked.

"March 13th. Why?" Koneko asked.

Issei's eyes went wide, the realization and remembrance striking him. "Oh...Yeah, he'll be fine. He's just going to see his mom and sister." He informed.

The girls simply stared at the Red Dragon Emperor in bafflement.

"...What?!"

Rico's Flower Shop

(Y/N) appeared down the street, walking to the flower shop.

The spanish man outside looked to the streets and spotted the young devil. He smiled and waved. "Ah Señor (L/N), wonderful to see you again. I'm take it you got my message."

"I did, Rico. I was already nearby when I got it so here I am."

"Sí sí, very nice. How is school going?" He asked.

"It's okay. It's school."

"Understandable. But remember joven, educación is very important! Finish it so you don't end up in a place like this, eh?" He referred to his flower shop.

The young devil chuckled lightly. "Oh come on Rico, you've got the best flowers in town. And I know you're making bank 'cause the place is always packed when I come here. That's why I have to make orders. You should be proud of that." He praised.

"Gracias gracias. Speaking of your order..." He reached into the building and grabbed the wrapped bouquet of flowers. "Here you are. White Lilies, White Alstroemeria, and Queen Anne's Lace. Just as you requested."

"Thanks Rico." (Y/N) smiled as he took the flowers. "I'm sure mom and sis will love these."

"Give them my best wishes." He tipped his hat.

"Will do. Here." He gave the florist ¥5,000. "Have a good night Rico."

"Have a good night Señor (L/N)." He bowed.

Matsuda Family Shrine

(Y/N) eventually made his way to the entrance of his destination. Simply walking through the open gates. He looked over and spotted Matsuda sweeping the grounds. "Hey Matsuda." He greeted.

The monk's son looked over and spotted his classmate. "(Y/N)?" He walked over to him. "Hey homie, what're you doin' here so late?"

"Oh, you know..." He shrugged, showing him the bouquet of white flowers. "It's that time again."

Matsuda noticed and nodded. "Ah. Right right. Come in, I'll open the gate for ya. Follow me." He said leading the young devil to another gate past the temple that went further into the forest. He unlocked it and pushed the gate open to (Y/N) to proceed. "Here. In case I'm not here when you're all finished up, lock up when you're all finished up top. Just get me the keys back by tomorrow at school 'Kay?" He said as he handed his classmate the keys.

"Right. Thanks man." He said as he proceeded on through the forest.

Time Skip

Climbing the seeming endless hike trail, surrounded by dark and thick trees, (Y/N) eventually made it to the top of the hill, to the giant overview of the entire city of Kuoh. He spotted the edge of the hill, the single tree that stood in solitude, a stone monument right in front of it. The young devil took his gentle steps forward to the grave. "Hey Mom...Hey Kazuki...Long time no see." He greeted to the grave.
