Chapter 4 Sweets and Secrets

"Dreams can bring out many different possibilities, unfortunately real life isn't the same. I'm sure its just because you're athletic, and you're keeping up with your training regime, a healthy body and all that.

"

Kazuto nods slowly, glancing down and saw for a moment a glow.

When he fully looked, he saw nothing.

"What was that?"

"What was what my dear?" The elderly woman pants his hand, Kazuto's eyes flicker, letting out a little yawn. "I didn't notice anything.

Anyway, its been a long day, why don't you get a nice hot bath, and get some rest. "

Kazuto nods slowly. "You okay Grams? Have a good day?"

"I did actually, connecting with my little friend group~"

"I'm glad~ Well, I'm off for a bath. .

. " Kazuto stands up, and goes up the stairs, but stops, and turns to his grandmother.

"You know Grams, they might be dreams. .

. but, if they were real, I think it would be pretty interesting.

"

The elderly woman smiles. "It would be, wouldn't it?"

Kazuto grins, and takes off up the stairs, while the elderly woman looks on, her eyes narrowing ever so slightly.

Meanwhile, Yuuma returned back to her allies, and she didn't look happy in the slightest. No, in fact she looked rather pissed off at that moment in time.

The trio of Fallen Angels, Kalawarner, Mittelt, and Dohnaseek looked at said woman and saw that she was a bit upset, angry and scared wrapped up into one.

Mittelt showed a small humble smile, but Yuuma snarled "Not now loli-sama!" causing Mittelt to bite back her worries.

"Ah, my favourite Fallen Angel…" Dohnaseek attempted to speak, but all he got was a middle finger from Yuuma as she strode on by him.

Kalawarner scowled when Yuuma even gave her a dismissive look at the same time.

"What the hell is wrong with you Raynare? Sure, yell at Dohnaseek, but not Mittelt. "

Mittelt agreed, while Dohnaseek snarled but so did Kalawarner.

Raynare steeled her will, and turned towards Kalawarner with sad eyes. "Well, I was rejected by a high school boy, and what's worse, the damn Devils got in the way.

I had it all figured out. Go on a date, lure him to us, take his power, and then.

. .

damn it all to hell! This was for Azazel-sama. .

. but now, its not going to how we planned.

. .

all I wanted to do was kill the boy, kill Asia, and get the hell out of here. .

. but now, the Devils know about us, we have to be smart, and think about how to deal with this.

. .

"

Dohnaseek went over to Raynare, and touched her shoulder, only to stop when she shot a glare in his direction. "Raynare, it seems this boy rejected you, but don't worry, I wont let your efforts go to waste.

I shall get him myself. "

"Geez, don't do anything stupid Dohnaseek. We are on a mission from Azazel-sama to recruit Sacred Gear wielders, while having Asia to deal with, we got tipped off about this boy, but we aren't going to be doing stupid shit, got it?" Raynare murmured, as Dohnaseek raised his fist to the sky.

"Don't worry about it Raynare, I can make the plan go off without a hitch, and without those damn Devils getting in the way, they might be on alert for you, but not for me. Just leave it with me, I've got to go and get some extra Exorcists, need fodder after all.

"

"Don't be a fool!" Raynare snapped.

But, Dohnaseek with determination in his eyes, took off, leaving everyone else behind.

Mittelt took a snack out, and began chopping down, while Raynare glanced at her.

Mittelt offered her some, so Raynare smiled, and accepted. "Thank you Mittelt, I'm sorry for yelling, been quite stressed lately.

I shouldn't have taken that out on you. "

"Its fine, don't worry about it. " Mittelt said sweetly.

"Thank you, Mittelt. " Raynare slowly sighs, Kalawarner looking between them.

"Mittelt, send Freed after that stupid shit Dohnaseek, he's going to do something, and I want to know what our options are should he fail. "

"Right away. " Mittelt said with a keen grin.

As Raynare ate, Kalawarner turned towards her curiously. "You know he's going to be a liability.

"

Raynare sighs deeply. "All he does is cause me pain, and misery.

He's a reckless fool. Kalawarner, Mittelt, in the event that stupid asshole does do something stupid, we have to get a plan in motion to distance ourselves from him, alright? We have Azazel-sama's permission to be here to recruit Sacred Gear wielders, Gremory and Sitri aren't stupid enough to cause war between our factions and knowing if they did do anything to us, then Azazel-sama wouldn't be pleased, but our first objective is that we will have to make sure they understand Dohnaseek is going off on his own.

"

Kalawarner hums in thought, and wonders what's going to happen now…

The next day at school, Kazuto casually strolled along towards his first lesson, while Koneko was beginning to follow him.

So she approached her Senpai, while putting her hands out in front of her, her expression was that of calm, and stoic.

Kazuto went to the class, and was about to go inside, when Koneko approached.

He glanced towards her, when he felt her tug at his blazer.

"Aah, hey Toujou-chan, you alright? Quite rare to see you up here. "

"…Yes, Senpai. I'm well.

"

Kazuto raised a brow, as Koneko went silent.

She didn't say anything for over ten seconds, he looked at her curiously.

"Something I can help you with?"

Koneko inhaled through her nose.

As she did, she blinks at the young man curiously.

"Toujou-chan?" Kazuto called out to her once more, finding it worrisome that she hasn't said anything yet. "Want some sweets?"

Koneko's lips tremble a little, breaking her usual stoicism for a few moments. "…Sweets?"

"Yeah, want some?" As he said it, he fished out a small bag of sweets. "Besides, gotta be a good Senpai, right~?"
