Welcome everyone, my name is Vople, aka. Hitsuru, aka. Azura Hideyoshi, aka. However you want to call me. This is a new story I decided to write in my moment of complete writer block on both Demonic Devil (DD in short) and Gamer's Tournament (GT in short).
Why this story? Why Kamen Rider? And why exactly this exact one?
Well, as I read through more popular Kamen Rider x HS DxD crossovers, I noticed most of them are either from Blade or Wizard, which while make sense, they are just shows I see a lot of crossovers of. The one I wrote here? Not so much. I think I read only one based on this Kamen Rider and not even with HS DxD, but rather Fire Emblem. Besides, in my eye, this Kamen Rider here makes a lot of sense when it comes to the story, mostly because it can be bent so perfectly to match the lore of DxD.
To inform everyone, I plan on making big universe of Kamen Riders in different anime series. Whether this one is canon to this universe or not, I am not sure. I actually have two other Kamen Rider shows I want to make crossover with in this universe, one not used almost at all in fanfics, but I'll see later if I want to write them or not.
Well, let's not keep you waiting... Wait, I'll quickly remind you something. If you liked my story and wish to know when new update comes, remember to follow and add it to your favorites. Also, if you have any questions about the fanfic, want to correct my grammar or have some proper, complex criticism, please write a review and I'll gladly answer them in the next chapter.
Now, without further ado, this is:
Kamen Rider: Hikari no Ryu
Chapter 1: Tainted light
[Live news from Tokyo! Passengers of infamous flight 554, that disappeared about a month ago, has been found today on one shore of Tokyo. They are now located in hospital of St. Luke and are given proper treatment. While most of them are currently found in deep state of coma, few of them have awaken just few minutes ago, one of them being youngest of currently confirmed survivors, 17 years old Issei Hyoudou. As far as we could find out, he's son of Orihime and Taro Hyoudou, who live in small town of Kuoh-]
One month later
With a big yawn, I slowly get up from bed and stretch. When I confirmed that everything is the same as always, I ran my hand through my brown, messy hair and went to the bathroom to change. My name is Issei Hyoudou, I am seventeen, born, raised and currently living in Kuoh. I am, or more specifically, was a perverted teen with dream of becoming a Harem King. But after events from two months ago, something changed in me.
I cannot remember anything from after our plane crashed and I lost consciousness. I know something happened between then and me waking up in Tokyo, but those memories are so blurry that it looks like I try to watch them through a frosted glass. I know just that whatever happened back then, it changed me permanently. My view on the world became more to-the-ground, contrasting with my previous self. While I often act like before, my perversion tuned down to the point of healthy interest. I no longer peek on women, nor do I make perverted comments in public. I sold 90% of my stash, giving half of what's left to my dad, because he begged like a child. What I did with the last 5%? Well, I said I tuned my perversion to a healthy interest, not completely killed it, so you can figure it out yourself.
Outside of that, I started to work on my grades, quickly fixing them to acceptable level. While I still hang out with my friends, I stopped spending my school breaks on perverted shenanigans. While they at first called it a treason, Matsuda and Motohama accepted my wish, though they still try to move me back to the 'Good Side'. What is weird is that Matsuda has been more absent for some reason. He says it's because he needs to help his sick aunty, but I feel something is fishy about this. But who am I to judge?
The last major change in my life is [Oi, partner. How long do you plan on washing your body?] this voice. This is Ddraig, Welsh Heavenly Dragon and soul bound to my Sacred Gear, Dragon Booster. Even though it's commonly known as Boosted Gear, I personally think that this name is retarded and Dragon Booster is much better, so I'm using that. "Sorry, Ddraig. I'm just thinking about my memories." Ddraig said that somewhere during my absence, I managed to become strong enough to activate his Sacred Gear and gain it's true form. But, just like me, he doesn't remember anything from that period. He says that this is most probably because of some powerful magic connected to souls, considering no mind altering magic can affect spirit sealed in Sacred Gear. And about my strength, I did notice it's sudden increase. I also noticed that during day, especially a sunny one, I feel far stronger and simply like nothing bad could happen. Originally Ddraig thought that it was because I became a Angel, but after checking my body, he said it wasn't that, but some power of unknown origin that apparently was in me since the very beginning in of my life.
[I know you're still confused about it, but so am I. Hopefully we'll find someone who'll be able to help us with this soon.] He also told me everything I should know about supernatural world, from the creation of man, through the Great War to the many incarnations of his hosts. He explained dynamics of every race, how territorial system works, including the fact that devils are apparently over viewing Kuoh. Thankfully, apparently after their civil war, control was taken by the more pacifistic part of their society and they stopped soul stealing and crap like that. He also voiced out his personal surprise about them not approaching me on topic of either Dragon Booster or my gigantic light alignment. He speculates that the unknown power is behind it somehow. "I know... It just troubles me a lot..."
I felt him nod mentally. While we doesn't technically know each other for long, we have high level of understanding and trust, which from how he explained his work with other hosts, is something unseen in forever. That's why more words was not needed in that matter. I quickly got dressed, ate my breakfast, gave a goodbye kiss on a cheek of my mom and went out towards my school.
Kuoh Academy, prestigious school for people, that became co-ed since the last school year. My original reason of joining this place was to start my harem. Hah~ How stupid I was back then.
During my walk I met my friend, Motohama Kentaro, or more commonly known in school as Perverted Glasses. As name implies, he wears big, round glasses like some anime characters. His hair are short and light black and... that's all that is standing out about him. Other than that, he's pretty bland. "Hey, Motohama!" I greeted him and he waved at me. "Issei, have you seen Matsuda on your walk here?" I shock my head.
"If I were to guess, he probably went to take care of his aunty again." He nodded and we continued to walk. I said that, but I just feel that something more is going on in life of my perverted friend.
Meanwhile, 3rd PoV
"Gentlemen and gentlewomen, we all know why are we gathered in this room today." A man in business suit started his monologue, gaining nods from everyone. "Because of the sudden increase of Kaijin attacks in whole Japan during recent years, we decided to revive Project G that we have put away after creator of legendary G3, Sumiko Ozawa, left us in favor of teaching in University of West London. Thankfully, we managed to convince her in helping us to create newest exo-suit that would surpass any other in strength. Today we managed to get second manufactured armor and sent to our division. So, without further ado, I would like miss Saori Toyoshima to present to us the new G5 system."
Everyone watched as a short woman with long, blonde hair moved to the center of the room. "My name is Saori Toyoshima, co-designer of G5 system and it's main engineer. After two years of work on the plans, we finally managed to create two exo-suits. One was given to the original user of G3 and G3-X, Makoto Hikawa, while the other was sent here. We looked three months for a suitable user. Biggest problem was that almost everyone declined our offer in fear of their lives, but we finally found someone who willingly accepted out offer."
At that moment, another person entered the room. It was a rather tall teenage boy with bald head. That's Matsuda Nogi, friend of Issei and Motohama, known in his school as Baldy Pervert. He was chosen because of his athletic background and his heavy involvement in few gang wars, something that isn't known to the public. Thankfully he was more on the side of the law, trying to stop the wars in his own ways, succeeding twice. After he was chosen, he went through a heavy training which prepared him to use the new G5 system.
"This is Matsuda Nogi" Continued miss Saori. "Current user of G5 system." Suddenly one of the man interrupted her explanation. "Sorry for interruption, but may I ask why this boy is given task of using our most powerful weapon?"
Saori sighed at that question, knowing it would pop up. "G5 system, unlike previous one, is completely useless unless person, who met certain criteria, is using it. Surprisingly, this BOY, as you've put it Onohara-san, was before training very athletic person, matching our more elite units. After putting him through rigorous training, he became physically fit to use it. We could have pick any other person, but outside of that we also needed someone who had experience in fighting in the street. This is something not many of police man have, am I wrong?" The man looked down, understanding it. "Another reason is also that he actually met and survived Kaijin. He knows possible danger of acting too cocky."
She took a small breath and continued. "Now, returning to the topic at hand, new G5 has been modified form the base. That allowed us to give it much slicker build, giving bigger mobility to it's user. Thankfully we didn't have to forsake defense for that, as we also managed to create a special alloy that is much harder than normal, titanium plates and it's also light enough, so that speed isn't decreased." She turned a projector on, showing new design of the armor. It was definitely smaller in size compared to it's predecessors, having only small chestplate, as well as few plates placed on arms and legs. It's head was also different, loosing it's armor-like look and looking more like a biker's helmet. (AN: Overall, it's based on Faiz, but without it's red lines, antennas on it's head and visor is red, while it's chestplates are blue and the belt, instead of Faiz Phone, it contains energy unit) She then took out laser pointer and pointed at the belt. "Here we have located energy unit. Thanks to technical changes of weapons, energy is used at a slower rate and the extra reinforcement of the unit itself, sudden energy malfunctions are less likely to happen, even if under heavy assault. Using special nano-enchantments, we managed to amplify strength of the suit, increasing power up to four tons in hands and twelve in legs."
Few hours later, Issei's PoV
Finally~! School has ended and I can go back home and train myself. While I am stronger than most humans and even Ddraig admits that I am rather strong, I still need to get stronger if I want to survive.
But before that, I decided to take a stop at a bridge connecting two sides of a busy road. It's my safe spot outside of my house, which allows me to think clearly. I supported myself on the rails, looking at the cars passing by. Man~ It's so... bland in my life. I may regret saying that, but I wish there was something interesting happening.
"Ano..." Huh? I looked to the side, seeing a girl around my age with long, blue hair and rather big bust. She wore a school uniform that I never saw in my life. It was twice as suspicious because there isn't much high schools in our town, so I managed to remember every single one. And I'm also more than sure that no new school was open in here. "Are you Issei Hyoudou?" She knows my name? Okay, something is definitely wrong! 'Ddraig, I need your expertise. Is she someone dangerous?'
[Not really. In raw power, you definitely surpass her by a bunch. Her experience may even it out, but with my help, she won't be able to catch you off guard.] If it wasn't true, I would have a serious issue with his over-prideful tone. "Yeah, I am. Who are you?" She smiled and her posture seemed more relaxed. But my instincts scream that she's not what she seems. "Sorry for my rudeness. My name is Yoruno Hikari. It may sound weird, but for the past few weeks I've been watching you from distance..." Seriously, she's either a great actor or she's seriously embarrassed about this to the point of blushing.
[I think I should've tell you this earlier, but she's a fallen angel.] Okay, so this is an act. Fallen angels, angels who have sinned and because of that their wings became black. Since then they embraced their sin, using it to their advantage. While their goal is the same as angels, defeating devils, they use completely different methods of fighting. Also, unlike angels, they don't care about humanity and are willing to use them to achieve their goals.
Their souls are tainted with sin... Kill them... Kill them all...
Huh? What was that? I think I'm hearing things... "And I've noticed how handsome you are... I wanted to... um... well... Would you like to go out with me!?" She yelled and bowed in front of me. I kept a neutrally kind smile. 'Any plan, partner?' [Accept. If she's honest, you get a sexy girlfriend who most probably will be more than willing to have kinky sex. If she's hostile, then simply beat her to a bloody plump.] While normally I'm highly against violence against women, I knew kindness won't do shit if she'll try to kill me.
After what seemed like seconds in real life, during which I made thinking expression, seemingly pondering on my decision, I finally nodded in her direction. "Sure, I'll happily give it a try." She sprung up and smiled happily. "Thank you very much! Date tomorrow?" I nodded with a small smile. "Sure. 9 AM?" She nodded and quickly skipped away.
"Alright, Ddraig. Let's go home and take a rest. Tomorrow will be exciting." I said and waited few seconds for response before I realized he already fell asleep. Should've figured. With that, I walked back home.
Thousand years ago, Kalawarner's PoV
I sigh and stretch my limbs, looking around the green plain I was on. It has been many years since Father created humans, who he dubbed his perfect creation. Honestly, I can understand why. We, angels, may have infinite knowledge, but humans were created as blank beings, having nothing more than other animals. The biggest difference was that they were created to look like us and Father. Those blank cards, unlike anything else God created, filled themselves, inventing everything we had unlimited access to. They obtained knowledge and wisdom. While it's not on our level, they will most probably come to us in few thousands years, being equal in mind and maybe even power.
"There you are, Kalawarner." And the biggest reason for why I believe in humanity just spoke to me with his calm, collective, yet kind voice. I looked behind to see brown, messy hair, light brown eyes and a small smile. Kyro, one of the biggest followers of Father, top-class exorcist and human I am protecting as a guardian angel. His actions pure, always made to bring word of God between pagans. Normally guardian angels aren't allowed to interact with their humans, but the exception comes to high priests and field exorcists.
"Hello, Kyro. How are you?" I asked him with a bright smile, which he returned. Lately there has been this weird feeling growing inside me. I'm not sure what exactly is it, but it's definitely positive and... directed towards the man in front of me. "I'm fine. I was just taking a walk before my next mission. How about you?"
I chuckled and looked up at the sky that had few clouds on it. "Nothing, just admiring work of our Father..." I didn't see what he was doing, but I knew he stepped next to me. "This world is beautiful, isn't it?" I nodded and returned my gaze to him. He was looking at me with those analytic eyes of his. That's when I knew what feeling I had towards him. Love. Unquestionable, pure love. Something angels are allowed as long as it doesn't move towards territory of lust.
This man is a person I love. I love him with my heart. I want to stay with him forever.
Present (?), Issei's PoV
Leafs. Lots of leafs. And trees. It's been week since all of us have crashed into a remote island . We aren't sure exactly where it is we are, but it doesn't matter. Most of the survivors stayed near the crashing site, hoping someone will find us sooner or later. But two people decided to explore the island more.
One of them is a woman in her mid 30's with long brown hair and blue eyes. Her name is Yukina Tsugami, a psychologist and a paranormal activity eccentric. The another person was her husband, Shouichi Tsugami. He's around her age and is a archeologist. Something told me to follow them, I don't know what.
So here I am, following these two complete strangers through a forest, wondering if we even will find anything here. "Hey, what's the long face, Issei?" Shouichi-san asked me with a small smile. I just chuckled and scratched back of my head. "Nothing, just thinking about what exactly we're looking for."
He shrugged and both of us looked at his wife, who was ahead of us. "What we're looking for, boys, is some good place for a camp. We may be found in few weeks or we may be deemed dead, so we need to prepare for the worst. If those other idiots aren't planning on joining us, then it's their problem." Shouichi-san told me that many years ago, Yukina-san was less confident than she is now, being far more scared and stressed. Apparently it was because of certain event that happened in year 2000 or so.
[Hai, hai.] We both acknowledged her and followed her, until suddenly I felt a big headache come to me. I couldn't hear anything around me, only weird whiz in my ears. I looked around and saw that Yukina-san also had headache, but her reaction was far smaller than mine. Suddenly I saw someone fall through bushes just as the headache disappeared. "HELP! HELP M-"
Before he could finish, he was grabbed by the head and got his neck broken by some... thing. It looked like a humanoid panthera with red scarf, weird sandals and a belt. I would've lie if I said I wasn't scared. Maybe it's look alone isn't THAT scary, but the fact this thing killed this man simply by breaking his neck. I started to back off, followed by Shouichi-san, but to my surprise, Yukina-san stood in place, determined look on her face.
She placed both her hands on her right side, forcing weird belt to appear around her waist. This reminded me of the rumors about Kamen Riders, people that wear very weird belts and armors and fight Kaijins. Is she a Kamen Rider? She started to raise her right hand until it was fully stretched out.
"Henshin!"
(Cue: BELIEVE YOURSELF/Kamen Rider Agito)
She yelled and pressed both buttons on the sides of the belt. Then light covered her and after a moment she was standing there in a golden armor that was obviously built for a female, being rather slim and with obvious feminine parts pointed out. It also had black gem at a center of it's chest. Her helmet looked a bit like some bug, having big red eyes and two horns that looked similar to that of a stag beetle.
After second of staring at each other, the Kaijin and Yukina-san charged at each other, beginning their fight. "W-what's going on..." I muttered out, placing my back on the tree. "This thing is called The Lord" Shouichi-san started, making me look at him. "and Yukina is Agito."
I blinked twice at that. "Aaaaand?" He rolled his eyes. "We'll explain everything later. For now, we need to wait until she ends the fight." He said and went behind the tree, but I felt skeptical. Will she win? Don't get the wrong idea, I am not chauvinistic, I know women can and often do fight better than men, but still... this thing feels powerful.
Grab your light...
AGH! This headache returned! Fuck! I felt also big pain in my stomach area and saw light coming from it. The same light as the one that Yukina-san was covered in when she turned. "WHAT THE HELL!?" The monster turned to me, as if forgetting he was fighting anyone. "Agito..." It then tried to charge me, but was pushed away by Yukina-san.
Grab the light... Embrace it... Become... Agito!
Suddenly, my head felt light, in a positive way. It felt... clean. As if every thought that was in there suddenly disappeared. I didn't know what was going on, but I knew one thing: I had to help her!
I moved both hands to their respective sides, both open in claw-like position, palms facing upwards. I felt weight appear on my waist, but I didn't look down. I needed to focus. I slowly rose them upwards, crossing my arms, but still putting distance between them, right hand was closer me, it's palm facing forward, while my left hand was the distant one, palm facing me. Then, feeling sudden rush of adrenaline, I clenched my hands into fists and connected my forearms, shouting one word that will probably change my life forever:
"Henshin!"
Then I moved my hands back to my waist and hit both buttons simultaneously. Light covered me, making me feel like in the days of my early childhood, when I was sick and I laid in my bed, covered in a worm and cozy blanket, sipping on a warm tea made by mom. After the light disappeared, I was covered in the same armor Yukina-san was wearing, but it was obviously created for man, having bulkier armor and overall bigger in size. Yukina-san and Shouichi-san awed at it for a moment before they remembered there was this Lord thing here.
It actually managed to recover itself from Yukina-san's attack and it now was right in front of me, trying to attack. But I wasn't scared. I dodged it's claw attack and punched it in the stomach with enough force to make it hit and slightly damage a tree behind it. Not wasting any time, I quickly went after it and continued to beat it up before picking it up and kicking it even more away.
Yukina-san approached me and looked at me as if trying to tell me something. Normally I wouldn't understand what she wanted, but on instinctive level I knew what was going on. We faced our enemy and went into a half-crouch, preparing for a final attack. Our horns expanded, changing from two to six and two symbols resembling our helmets appeared under us. As we continued to prepare, symbols were absorbed by our feet and as our enemy ran towards us, we did the same before jumping up and kicking him in the chest. We then quickly jumped away using momentum of his chest and landing few feet away. We slowly turned away, still keeping our hands up in fighting position. After we stopped looking at him at all, two seconds passed and I heard an explosion, making me relax my muscles. I let the air I unconsciously kept out and the armor disappeared. When it did, I felt exhaustion run through my body and I fell to the ground.
(BGM ends)
Neither of the people with me seemed to fazed with this, simply approaching me and picking me up. "You have.. A lot to... explain..." I said between deep breaths before my consciousness completely disappeared.
Kuoh
I immediately shot up from bed and looked around, seeing my stuff clumsily placed around. Thank God, I'm back in my room. What... What was that? Was that a dream?... No, it wasn't. That was my memory from after the crashing. "Ddraig..."
[Yeah, I saw that too... Was that really your memory?] I shrugged with sigh. "Like hell I know. It feels too real to be a dream, so I guess so. Besides, we can always check it out by summoning this belt." I said and felt mental nod of my lizard friend. After getting up from bed, I stood in the center of my room, taking deep breaths. After moment I quickly moved my hands to the sides, making same pose as I did back in my memory and after second I felt weight on my waist. I looked down and I saw the same belt. "So it was real..."
I let my breath out, forcing it to disappear. It works a little like a Sacred Gear, but it needs specific moves for summoning and it definitely feels far more powerful than a Sacred Gear. I mean, from memory alone I could feel that this armor gave me more power than my Dragon Booster would give me with all of my boosts, which I can do twelve max at the moment. "Ddraig, what should we do about it?"
Ddraig stayed silent for few seconds, making me feel rather nervous. [This is an unknown power, so people will most like consider you less of a threat if you use this rather than Dragon Booster. Everyone knows me and my Sacred Gear, as well as it's capabilities, but no one knows this... "Agito", so they will probably think it's just a simple armor. But if it is the source of you light alignment, then this will be your most powerful power.] I couldn't help but nod at that logic. If even Ddraig didn't hear about Agito before, then that means it's something less known than anything else in supernatural world. "Thanks for that info. But I think I'll stick with Dragon Booster for now. It may be well-known, but as you said: Agito is more powerful, so shouldn't I use it as my trump card?"
He nodded once more. [It's your choice. It's good to know you do have some semblance of logical thinking.] Be it me from few months ago, I would take it as a compliment. Now I just feel insulted to no end. For that, I've cut off our connection and went to change for today's date.
Around thirteen hours later, Kuoh Park
Our "date" went really good. While we didn't told where to meet on our date, I knew that the best call to where to go would be the bridge we met yesterday. And as I expected, she came there, wearing blue dress that reached her knees and a small necklace that obviously had religious theme. I, meanwhile, wore a simple blue shirt with a white T-shirt under it and black pants. Hey, it may not be a real date and my date may try to kill me at it's end, but at least I'll look cool while I fight her.
We begun our date in a shopping district, walking around shops, where she checked many outfits. Thankfully she didn't want to buy anything, so my money was safe. The only thing I bought her was a small bracelet which she personally awed on. After that we headed to small restaurant, since both of us got a bit hungry. Once again, my wallet survived the test, getting only minimal damage in financials.
After we paid for everything, she said she needed to use a toilet and told me to wait for her outside. As I was waiting, I was approached by a girl in cosplay clothes resembling a bat and got a weird flier that only had a magic circle and words "We'll make your wish come true". Ddraig told me it was a way for devils from Gremory peerage to be summoned by humans if they have any wish. Not knowing what to do with it, I just hid it in my back pocket as Yoruno came back and we headed to a movie theater.
There I bought two tickets to some romance movie. I can't even remember it's name, it was so generic. Sometime during us watching it, she snuggled up to my arm. Not knowing how to properly react, I simply placed my arm around her shoulder, making her blush. I'm seriously starting to doubt whether this is an act or not.
And here we are now, right after movie we got to this park to end our date. "I had a lot of fun today, Issei-kun." Yoruno said with a big smile and I couldn't help but smile back. "I'm glad to hear that."
She turned to me with a smile. "Issei... I have something I would like to ask you..." She said and slowly approached me. I kept my smile, but I also prepared myself for the worst. "Could you... give me a kiss?" Wait... WHAT!? I blinked twice at that question and actually blushed a little. "Um... Sure." She leaned in and I slowly kissed her. Her lips were soft, sweet and juicy, like a fresh cherry. I didn't expect her to actually want to kiss me. I actually felt... happy...
[Partner, two hostile angels, six o'clock!] Of course, it couldn't be so perfect. I quickly pulled away from the kiss and grabbed two spears that flew at our direction. From the way Yoruno had surprise written on her face, she didn't expect that. Maybe she really wanted to just date me? "Kala-chan, what are you doing with this worm? You were supposed to kill him." Or maybe not. I didn't look at the girl behind me, Ddraig said no hostility comes from her, so I guess I'm safe.
"Raynere, Mittelt! Please, don't attack him! He won't be of any harm to us!" So they tried to kill me because they thought I was a threat? Well, if not for today, they might've been mistaken. But now... "So what? Azazel-sama said clearly that he must be eliminated, so we're gonna do just that. And if you'll try to stop us..." The raven haired girl tried to threaten her, but her shaking hands weren't too convincing, for me at least. "I will kill you as well!" She yelled and both her and her blonde comrade threw another two spears at us. I managed to block them with the once I had in my hands, making them actually notice I held two light spears
Actually... How the hell is that possible? [Most probably you power of Agito has something to do with this.]Ah, that's probably it. "How can such lowly being like you not be hurt by our light spears?" I twirled my temporary weapons in my hands and shrugged. "Like hell I know." I then threw them back at them and shoved my left hand violently to left, extending it completely.
[DRAGON BOOSTER!] Yelled voice of Ddraig as in green light my Sacred Gear materialized. Everyone seemed surprised and shocked that not only I already have my Sacred Gear unlocked, but also that it's the Dragon Booster. "Dammit... We cannot deal with both Sekiryuutei and a traitor. Mittelt, let's retreat for now." The raven haired said and they both flew away. I could hear Ddraig complaining he couldn't do anything fun, even though he actually is quiet.
I turned to Yoruno, or Kala, as she was called before. "So... mind explaining a few things?" She just stared at me and slowly nodded. "Good, but let's go to my place. I don't plan on talking out in the open."
With that I took her back to my home, where she explained everything. Apparently they were originally supposed to watch me from far in case my power were to make me go berserk. But few days ago they got new order through Kokabiel, saying that I am to be exterminated immediately. That part made me frown. Most of them were suspicious about this kind of order, knowing Azazel doesn't like killing without a reason, especially if it's a Sacred Gear user. But Dohnaseek, one of their companions, said that it is a true order and they were to do it ASAP.
Originally the one that was supposed to kill me was Raynere, the raven haired girl, because she was the one that observed me the most. But apparently Kalawarner decided to do it herself, reason wasn't given to me for some reason. But as we went on the date, she slowly started to develop feelings towards me. Apparently, supernatural beings are more vulnerable to emotional changes, especially those like love and hate. While fallen angels are normally distant towards people, some may fall for others if they were emotionally unstable from past events that might've make them fall. I don't know what it was that happened to her, because again, she didn't told me anything.
I showed her to her room in which she'll stay for now. Thankfully my parents were very understanding, letting her stay after I told them she was a transfer student from Europe. Unfortunately that meant I needed to find a way to move her to our school. Normally, it wouldn't be that bad, but the problem for me is that school is supervised by the devils, so there's high chance they'll attack her, and that in extent will mean me as well, the moment they'll see her. But I decided to leave that problem for tomorrow. I was too tired to think about it now.
Next day, Kuoh Academy
It was a pain getting here today.
First, like in some ecchi anime, I got into the bathroom as Kalawarner was using it. Naked. Honestly, that wasn't my fault, she was the one that forgot to lock the door and in our house we have mutual understanding that when we go use a bathroom, we close the door. I think I forgot to fill her on that... Okay, so it was my fault. Still don't understand why she had to hit me so hard? Now I had a swelled up eyes.
After that we headed to school to talk with Sona. I told Kalawarner about them being devils, making her first skeptic, thinking I'm going to sell her out to them. But after ten minutes of assuring her I won't and that I will protect her, she reluctantly agreed to that idea. Problem was that because I had someone like her around me, everyone got either jealous, because I had a hot chick with me, or suspicious, thinking I blackmailed her or something. Yeah... My perverted actions are still fresh in memory of everyone in school.
Ignoring everyone, we somehow managed to get to Student Council room. Unfortunately, the worst part came here. Immediately as we entered, Ddraig informed me that they've set up few barriers to keep people away from this room. Getting ready for the worse, I approached desk of the Student Council president, Souna Shitori, or Sona Sitri as Ddraig once informed me.
"Issei Hyoudou. What is the meaning of you coming here today? Is it because of..." She glared at Kalawarner. "Her?" I sighed and nodded. "Yes, I would like her to enter our school as a transfer student." She narrowed her eyes but, seeing I didn't make any hostile action, simply sighed.
"And what would be the reason of transfer?" I closed my eyes and sighed myself. "She has been deemed traitor by her companions." Everyone in here except me and Kalawarner rose their eyebrows at that.
"And what do you mean by that?" I rolled my eyes at that. "Like you don't know." I think my tone surprised her slightly, as I saw her flinched, even if just slightly. "After all, Gremory-senpai had me set up for death from her, right?" Sona sighed and got up. "Issei Hyoudou, how much do you know?"
I shrugged and summoned Dragon Booster. It may seem like a stupid move, but A) They would find out about it sooner or later, B) Explaining my knowledge would be much easier, since if I would say Kalawarner told me everything I know, they would simply shot back by saying she simply was deceiving me. I may be ex-pervert, but I'm not dumb... At least not as dumb as people may think. "My partner said me more than enough." [Greetings, current heir of Sitri Clan.]
Her eyes widened when she saw what kind of Sacred Gear I had. "How long do you have it active!?" I shrugged once more. "Roughly two months. I'm not sure exactly when I activated it, but it was around the time my memory is fuzzy." She eyed me, looking for any lie and simply sighed, sitting back down. "Alright, I understand. You're right, Rias might've knew about their plans of killing you before hand." I nodded with a frown. Why such beautiful girl have to be so manipulative? Okay, many women are manipulative, or so the stereotype often says, but this is pure 'evil mastermind' level of manipulation! Heck, from just looking at her eyes, I know Sona-senpai wouldn't do that. So she's obviously the smarter one!
"But I must ask. Why didn't she kill you?" "My natural charm helped me, of course~" I said in my suave tone, getting in turn a fist to my head. After yesterday's confession and today's bathroom incident, Kalawarner tuned her feelings down to reasonable level, feeling embarrassed and stupid because of saying it. "No, you idiot! I simply didn't want to betray Grigory by going against Azazel-sama's ideology!" I chuckled and rubbed the part that she hit me. "But you still kissed me at the end." If I didn't expect another punch coming my way, I would've had a bump on a bump.
She huffed and turned away. "So... Souna, or more accurately, Sona-senpai... Will you let her stay?" She thought about it and nodded. "She can, as long as she doesn't bring any trouble, alright?" We both nod and I grin a bit. "Alright. I'll make sure she behaves."
"I'll inform my peerage and Rias about her. But I must ask, miss fallen angel, how would you like to be called." I don't know exactly why, but I chuckled at how Sona-senpai called Kalawarner. "First of all, my name is Kalawarner. But in public call me Yoruno Hikari." She said as she used magic to make herself look seventeen and got on Kuoh Academy's female uniform. "You'll join Hyoudou-san's class. Once again I will warn you, any hostile action will force us to use excessive force. Hopefully nothing like that will happen." I nodded one last time before heading out with Kalawarner to our class.
Few hours later
After school I wanted to returned with Kalawarner immediately back home, but we were stopped by someone that to this day, I despise with my whole soul.
Just as I was about talk with my housemate, we heard squeal of girls and one sentence I hoped not to hear ever again in my close vicinity.
"It's Kiba-kun!"
"What, Kiba-kun is coming here!?"
"Please go out with me, Kiba-kun!"
Those girls will never learn, huh? I watched as a blonde boy with deep blue eyes walks into our classroom. Yuuto Kiba, called by all girls Prince of Kuoh Academy and Prince Charming by me and my friends. Also, devil servant of Rias Gremory. Judging by his act and overall aura, I'd say he's a knight, embodiment of speed.
"I'm sorry girls, but I'm here for someone." I know my luck, so I know who he's here for. "Issei Hyoudou, is it?" Of course. "Yes, that's me. What would you like, pretty boy?" He chuckle as if I said something funny. Seriously, if I'll get a chance, I'll punch that guy.
"Gremory-senpai would like to meet you and Hikari-san." Oh crap basket... Please, don't do anything bad. Issei, keep composure! ISSEI! "Alright, but..." I approached him and leaned to his ear. "If it's something hostile, you won't live tomorrow." He frowned for a second before gaining his prince-like smile. "Don't worry Issei-kun. Gremory-senpai wants to just talk." Don't call me Issei-kun, bastard! I just sighed and the two of us followed him.
After few minutes we reached old school building, which was originally main building back when school was still for girls only. Mystery is how it managed to hold so many people at once, but I won't question it. Even if it looks a bit old, it actually is well maintained, being repaired every summer on wish of main investor of our school. Coincidentally or not, this man is also Rias-senpai's father apparently.
We entered the building and walked to the second floor. Before we reached the stairs, I saw one door being taped with 'Do not enter' tape like the one on the crime scenes. After some more walk - seriously, it's far bigger on the inside... Is it TARDIS or something? - we finally found ourselves before the biggest door in the whole building, that is the only double doors in the building. Kiba knocked twice on the door and we could hear someone saying "Enter" from the other side. So, we did as we were asked and entered.
There, on a couch, sat small girl with white hair in which she had two kitten-based clips. This is Koneko Toujou, Kuoh Academy Mascot and rook of Rias Gremory, as well as half Nekomata, or Nekoshou to be exact. She looked at us and glared slightly at Kalawarner. I just awkwardly chuckled and gently moved her to the other couch.
Just then I noticed sound of shower behind me. I didn't need to look to know what was happening. How did they get to have shower here however is a mystery to me. "Sorry for my lack of preparation, but I happened to wake up late today and didn't have time for shower at my apartment." Voice of Rias Gremory, one of two Great Onee-sans of our school and current protector of this territory, came from direction of the shower.
"Ara, ara... Issei-kun, would you like some tea?" Akeno Himejima, the second member of the Great Onee-sans as well as Rias' queen. She has the biggest bust size out of all girls in school - information confirmed by Motohama himself - and is the kindest person you could meet. Also, when it comes to her species, she isn't half devil, she's 1/3 of a devil. 1/3 is human and, surprisingly, 1/3 is fallen angel. How that happened, I'm not sure, but I must not let anyone know I know that information, especially considering she not only verbally ignored Kalawarner's presence, but also glared with a tad too creepy smile.
"Yeah. Could you get one for Kalawarner-san?" She didn't gave verbal response, but for the second question there was definitive no, considering she only brought one cup of tea and gave it to me. To tease/piss her off a little bit, I gave my cup to Kalawarner with a small smile. Honestly, acting so mean to a girl may not be gentleman-like and it will definitely not get me a girlfriend too quickly, but by GOD, I will not let anyone to discriminate another person for whoever they are!
After moment I heard the shower stopping, but keeping every restrain on my perverted nature, I didn't look behind me. I think Koneko-chan picked up on that, giving me a curious look. I just ignored it, looking out of the window. "Well, now I'm ready." I looked towards the main desk to see Rias-senpai fully dressed, having small smile on her face. Man, how much I would pay to tap that gi- STOP ISSEI! Business now, pleasure later! "So, why are we here, Rias-senpai?"
"Well, let's not play game of cat and mouse and get straight to the point. What are you doing here?" HAHAHA! You just gave me THE perfect opportunity to screw around with you, Rias-senpai. "Well... You called for us, right?" Everyone looked at me like I was an idiot and after few seconds I couldn't help but laugh at their faces. Devils gained a slight frown on that. "Oh come on! It was just a joke! If we're going to talk, don't let it be too serious." I said and calmed down from the laugh. "Okay, okay. Now seriously, when it comes to me, I lived in Kuoh ever since I remember or even longer, while Kalawarner... she's here because she didn't want to kill me."
Rias raised her eyebrow at that. "Didn't want to kill you? Could you elaborate on that?" I looked at her and Kalawarner, just like yesterday, shock her head. "I would like to know details as well, but she didn't seem willing to explain." Rias sighed and sat down. "Will you be problem on our territory?" I relaxed on the couch. "We? No. The ones in the church? Probably."
"We know about the fallen angels located in the abandoned church, but because we don't want to provoke another war, we cannot do anything." Oh god, I cannot facepalm! I cannot! Facepalm! "Explain this: You are the one that takes care of Kuoh, right?" She nodded. "And they came here without previously asking you for your permission, right?" She nodded again. "So what stops you from kicking them out?" She stopped on that sentence for a moment, then shock her head. "She didn't do anything bad, so I have no reason to."
Okay, that's it. "Two of her ex-companions tried to kill me and her! This isn't bad!?"
"Please, understand that we cannot simply fight them because they TRIED to kill a human and a traitor." She said calmly.
I growled a bit a that. "Okay, I MAY understand that. And I will not delve into that topic anymore." I then got up and walked towards exit. "If that's all, we'll take our leave. If I'm ever needed, please inform me beforehand."
"Wait!" I stopped and looked at her. "I actually wanted to offer you a certain proposition." I sighed tiredly. Seriously, I just want to got home and hit the bed. "If it's about joining your peerage, I must decline. I was born a human, I've lived all of my life as a human and I plan on dying as a human. That's that, nothing will change my mind."
She bit her bottom lip. "Then... At least join our club. This way you'll stay human, but at the same time we'll give you protection and we will be able to keep an eye on you two." So they still don't believe us, huh? Oh well, I don't mind that. I nodded at her proposition. "Sure, as long as you don't plan on giving us orders I'm fine with that." She nodded and we finally managed to leave.
Next day, Kuoh Park
After returning home, I quickly took a shower and went to sleep. Thankfully the same bathroom scene didn't happen, so my day started off pretty good. Kalawarner went on earlier to school, saying she plans to give the best impression to devils, even if it hits her pride hard.
Considering my first two classes are Mathematics and Classic Literature, I decided to skip those classes and walk around the park. This also gave me time to think. Especially about the memory I retained two days ago. After that no more memories returned, which makes me wonder: Why I gained one just now? Will I only receive one memory a month? That would definitely suck. And also, why exactly that one? I actually got the whole first week of memories, but for some reason this one moment I remember the most perfectly out of them all, being able to find every detail in milliseconds.
As I was pondering on that, I didn't watched where I was going, so I accidentally bumped into someone, making both of us fall on the ground. When I looked at the person, I saw it was a young girl with blonde hair and green eyes, wearing a nun outfit.
"Ow... How did I trip?"
Who is she?
