A seventeen year old boy stands in front of a gravestone while holding a little girl's hand who couldn't be more than four years old.

*Flashback*

"Hey, Ise?" a young teenaged girl asked.

"Yeah Irina?" A young teenage boy responded.

"You'll always protect our little angel, right? I have a feeling something bad will happen soon," Irina said.

Issei, worried, looked at her and replied, "of course I will, she's our daughter, I will always protect her, but I'll also protect you, too".

*Flashback end*

'That was the last time I saw her, the next she had a fallen angel's spear through her gut,' Issei thought sadly. "Daddy," the girl said, bringing Issei out of his thoughts, "Did Mommy love me?"

Aghast, Issei said," Gabrielle Penny Hyoudou, your mother loved you so much, don't ever question that. Every time your mother so much as looked at you, she got this giant smile on her face that made me fall in love with her all over again".

"Ddraig, they're coming," the two were interrupted by a feminine voice.

"I know Ophis, now Gabby, I want you to go with Aunty Ophis and see Uncle Red, okay? Now go Ophis, I've got this," He said.

"Partner," A deep voice speaks up, "whatever happens, im with you all the way, if they wish to interrupt a dragon in mourning, then they will feel my wrath as the Red Dragon Emperor"!

"Thanks Ddraig," Issei responded, "I'm sure I haven't been the best wielder you've had, but if I go down, we'll take them down with us"!

(Time Skip- 30 minutes)

"Come on out Azazel," Issei spat, "you too Michael, Sirzechs".

"Issei, are you still mad at me for what happened, it wasnt my fau-"

He was interrupted by Issei yelling at him,"Of course I am, YOU setup that meeting, because of that meeting, MY FIANCEE AND THE MOTHER OF MY DAUGHTER IS DEAD, DEAD AZAZEL"!

"But, you named her after Penemue, so why are you still mad at me?"

"Let me rephrase that, Azazel. You, a fallen angel, sets up a meeting with me, the Red Dragon Emperor, to discuss an alliance, now, guess who forgot to show up because he was being a deadbeat, you, thats right, you. Now in your place comes Kokabiel, who, after I talked to Penny after the fact, is a known warmonger, wanting not peace but war. When he decided I won't bring much to you're faction, he stabs Irina, killing her, and leaving me a widower, AND MY DAUGHTER MOTHERLESS! At least she has Gabriel, and for that I thank you Michael, she is her Godmother and the one we named her after."

"Gabriel enjoys taking care of her, like the daughter she could never have, and the fact that you named her after an angel, two in fact Gabriel and Penemue, even if one is fallen, will bring upon countless blessings, if you ever, and I mean ever, need anything Issei, just get Gabriel to let me know, and I'll do my best to get it done."

"Now that you mention it, there is one thing I would like to ask."

"Name it, Issei."

"Is there any way for you to extend my life force, after I used the Juggernaut Drive against Kokabiel, I only have six months to a year at best before I die."

"Well currently, there are three ways, Sirzechs could have someone in the Underworld reincarnate you, Azazel could reincarnate you, or I could turn you into an Angel."

"Third option please, but only as long you raise my daughter as well."

"Of course, but only after she comes of age and makes the choice for herself, I reguse to do it without her making an informed judgement," Michael said.

"Issei," Sirzechs started, "I have a message from Serafall".

"What does Sera have to say to me, last I remember we didn't part on good terms exactly?"

"She says, 'Issei, I know what I did at the time was unforgivable, I refused to reincarnate Irina to save her, but I refused to start a war, Gabriel would have my head if I did that and I wouldn't refuse her. And if we did that, then the whole underworld would riot against heaven, I refused to let that happen. Please forgive me.' I agree with her Issei, she speaks the truth,"

"Well, if we're giving out messages, I've got one from Penemue as well," Azazel said. "She says, 'Issei Hyoudou, if you don't bring little Gabby to see me I'm going to castrate you!' I'd take her warning seriously, she missess her, a lot," Azazel said.

Suddenly a golden cross appears and Gabriel steps out. "Issei, it's been too long, where's Gabby?" she pouts. "Heh, it's been awhile Gabriel, I didn't know how this would have turned out, so I sent her off with Ophis to visit Red." Issei replied.

"Now, Issei, when are you going back to Kuoh, I'm sure your parents miss you, and you need to finish your education. These past years, all you've been doing is wasting away, She wouldn't have wanted that."

"That's my next stop, Gabriel, I plan on going to Kuoh Academy and-"

"Er, Issei," Sirzechs interjects, "mine and Serafall's little sisters go to school there, are you sure thats a good idea?"

"Yeah, it was my territory to begin with, you know what happens when you intrude on a dragons lair. I'm sure Tannin warned you against it, but as usual you refused to listen," Issei makes a red communication circle with a dragons head on it appear, "Ophis, bring Gabby to me please,"

"Of course, Ddraig," she responded.
