Chapter 3: A Crazed Priest and the Lost Name
It was around noon when Takashi stopped at a fountain. He is wearing a black t-shirt with a silver design on it, red pants with belts going down the legs, and black leather boots. He looked round, waiting for Asia.
"I promised Buchou that I would not go to the church, I didn't say anything about seeing Asia-chan," Takashi said as he laughed a little.
"Morning, Takashi-san," said a familiar voice.
Takashi looked over to see Asia in her nun outfit running towards him, but she tripped and fell on her face.
"Are you ok, Asia-chan," Takashi asked as he helped Asia up?
"I'm fine, Takashi-san," Asia said with a smile.
"Ok. So what do you want to do, Asia-chan," Takashi asked the blonde girl?
"I do not know. Let's do something fun," Asia said with a smile.
Takashi and Asia spent hours walking around, talking, and played games in the arcade. They stopped at a burger place to eat, were Takashi had to show the cute and innocent girl how to eat a burger because she never had one before.
The two were walking in the park when Asia said ", thank you, Takashi-san, for meeting me today and for being my first friend."
"What. You never had a friend before, Asia-chan," Takashi asked with a worried face?
Before Asia could say anything, a cry sounded. The two teens looked over to see a young boy crying, with a scraped knee. Without hesitation, Asia ran to the boy and put her hands in the wound. A ring appeared on each of her hands as green light enveloped the wound and began to heal it.
'She has a sacred gear to,' Takashi thought as he looked at Asia in surprise.
Ddraig then mentally said [, Twilight Healing.]
'What," Takashi asked in his head?
Albion then said in Takashi's head [, it's a sacred gear that can heal anyone. Human, angel, fallen, devil, or dragon, it can heal anyone.]
The boy stopped crying as he thanked Asia for helping him. The boy ran away with a smile on his face.
Asia looked at Takashi with a sad face as she said ", you're probably thinking I'm a freak right now."
Takashi looked around to see if no one was around. After finding no one, he made the Boosted Gear appear, which shocked Asia.
"You not a freak Asia-chan," Takashi said with a smile as he put his hands on Asia's shoulders.
The two of them dismissed their sacred gears as Asia told her story of how that when she was a baby she was left at an orphanage and how that she became a holy maiden when the priest that ran the orphanage saw her heal a sick puppy. But before she could finish her story, Takashi's phone ringed.
"Hello, Buchou," Takashi said as he answered the phone. Takashi listened to Rias and then hung up the phone and said to Asia ", sorry Asia-chan, I have to go. Let's meet again."
"See you Takashi-san," Asia said as Takashi left.
Takashi made his way to the club room. Everyone else was wearing their school uniforms. When he got to the club room, Rias then said to him ", Takashi you have a new client."
"Ok, Buchou," Takashi said as he stepped on a red magic circle. Takashi appeared in a darken hallway, the only light is coming from a room on the other end of the hallway. Takashi walked towards the room and when he entered the room he was greeted with a dead body.
Then gun shots could be heard. Takashi responded to slow and found himself shot in both knees and shoulders.
"Damn," Takashi yelled as he fell to the floor in pain, feeling the wounds burning like the spear that killed him.
"Hahahahahahahahahaha! Hello, shitty devil-chan. I am father Freed and I will be giving you your last rights," Said a man that appeared from the shadows. The man looks about twenty with short white hair and wearing priest robes. In his left hand is a hand gun and in his right a sword that looks like the blade is made of light.
"You asshole! Why did you kill a human," Takashi yelled as he tried to get up to no avail!
"Because, shitty devil-chan, a human who cohorts with a devil is no longer human," Freed said with a twisted laugh and an even more twisted smile.
"Why wound the church kill a human? Aren't you people all about forgive and forget," Takashi yelled as Divine Dividing appeared and lifted him up a bit!
"Oh, reincarnated shitty devil-chan, your master didn't tell you about rouge priests," Freed said through his twisted smile.
Then a scream could be heard from the boor way. Takashi and Freed looked over to see Asia with a look of shock on her face.
"Asia-chan what are you doing here," Takashi asked in shock?
Asia looked over at Takashi, her face became even more shocked as she asked ", Takashi-san, why are you here?"
"Oooooh, Asiaaa-chaaaan! You know this shitty devil-chan," Freed asked with his smile twisting even further?
"Takashi-san you're a devil," Asia said looking at Takashi!
Takashi looked away in silence, feeling sick at himself for lying to Asia.
"Please tell me it's not true," Asia asked?
Takashi remained silent.
To break the silence, Freed hit Asia with his gun, knocking her to the floor.
"Freed, you asshole," Takashi yelled as he had Divine Dividing move him to tackle Freed!
Freed side stepped the rushing Takashi, avoiding the flying devil.
Takashi crashed into the wall, making a hole, as Divine Dividing vanished.
Asia then ran over to Takashi and began to heal him as she cried.
"Asia-chan, why are you with this asshole," Takashi asked the young girl?
"I was kicked out of the church because I helped a wounded devil. I wondered around until Lady Raynare took me in. Now I have to serve the fallen angels or die alone," Asia said with the flow of tears increasing.
Takashi's face became filled with anger at the mention of Raynare's name.
"That's enough talk, Asia-chan. You're lucky that Raynare-sama needs you alive for the ritual, so stay quite in the corner! Now it is the time for this shitty devil-chan to die," Freed said as he threw Asia across the room, knocking her out. He then swung his light sword down, but before it hit Takashi, it was blocked by a black sword.
"Yuuto-kun," Takashi yelled in surprise at the sudden appearance of the blond swordsman.
"Are you ok Takashi-kun," asked the blond swordsman to his wounded friend?
"I feel as right as rain," Takashi said in a dead pan voice.
"Sorry I asked," Yuuto said with a smile.
"Hello, handsome shitty-devil-chan," Freed said as he pulled back from Yuuto. He looked around the room and found the other members of the Occult Research Club surrounding him.
"Hello, Mr. Rogue priest. I am Rias Gremory and you are in my territory. I'm going to punish you for attacking one of my servant and for killing a client," Rias said with a stern face as Koneko lifted Takashi off the floor.
"Looks like I'm out numbered here. Bye-bye shitty devil-tachi," Freed said as he threw something on the floor. A flash of light forced everyone to cover their eyes. When the light was gone, Freed and Asia disappeared.
"Asia-chan," Takashi yelled with tears in his eyes.
"Akeno, get us back to the club room," Rias said with a sigh as she looked over Takashi's wounds.
Akeno lifted her hand above her head as a red magic circle appeared underneath everyone. A bright light flashed and every one was back in the club room. Akeno then walked over to Takashi and finished healing his wounds with her magic.
"Takashi, do not go after them," Rias ordered with a stern face to her Pawn.
After Akeno finished healing his wounds, Takashi stood up and walked over to the window. Boosted Gear and Divide Dividing appeared on Takashi in a flash of light.
"Takashi, where are you going," Rias asked in a stern tone?
"Sorry, Buchou, but I can't fallow that order," Takashi said with tears in his eyes and his face distorted in anger as he flew off.
"Takashi," Rias yelled out the window with tears in her eyes! When she turned back to her servants, she noticed that Yuuto and Koneko were gone.
"It looks like Kiba-kun and Koneko-chan ran after Takashi-kun," Akeno said with a worried look as she placed her hand on her cheek.
"Why are my servants so much of a hassle," Rias asked herself as she place her hands on her hips.
"Are we going after them, Rias," Akeno asked with her usual smile as if she already did not know the answer?
"Of course, Akeno. They are my lovely servants," Rias said with a smile.
Outside the church
Takashi landed in front of the church doors. Feeling a familiar vide, he turned around to see Yuuto and Koneko standing not that far from him.
"Did Buchou tell you to bring back," Takashi asked with a stone face that would make Koneko proud?
"No, Takashi-senpai," Koneko said with her usual stone face as she put combat gloves on.
"We came to help, Takashi-kun. You're our dear friend. Seeing you sad or angry makes us feel the same way," Yuuto said with a smile as his sword appeared.
Takashi cried a little as he said ", thank you Yuuto-kun, Koneko-chan. Now let's beat up some fallen trash and some rogue rats!"
Koneko walked past Takashi and then punched the doors off their hinges.
The inside of the church looked worn-down. Near the back of the church was Freed and four other rogue priests all armed with the same weapons as Freed. They were guarding a passageway down.
"Takashi-kun, you go save Asia-chan while I and Koneko-chan fight this filth," Yuuto said with a serious face as he and Koneko began fighting Freed and the priests.
"Ok," Takashi said as he flew over everyone while avoiding gun shots. He landed near the passageway and stopped as Albion began to talk.
[Be wary, Partner. A strong force is down there. I can feel it,] Albion said to Takashi mentally.
[He's right, Aibou. It feels twisted,] Ddraig added.
"Ok, I got you! Are you two ready to go," Takashi replied to the two dragons?
[Always, Partner/Aibou,] the two dragons yelled out as Takashi ran down the stairs!
When Takashi got to the bottom of the stairs, he found himself in a large room with a cross on a pedestal in the sent. The room was filled with rogue priests with guns and swords. Standing near the pedestal was the scantily clad fallen angel Raynare and chained to the cross was Asia, who was wearing nothing but a see though white shirt.
"Asiaaaaaaaaa," Takashi yelled as loud as he could!
Everyone looked at Takashi as Asia yelled ", Takashi-san!"
Raynare smiled evilly as she said ", hello again, mutt-chan. I'm a bit surprise to see you have both Boosted Gear and Divine Dividing. But what I want to know is how you survived my spear through your chest?"
"For your info, you fallen piece of shit, I was save by Rias Gremory by being turned into a devil. But before I punch your face in, why do you keep calling me a mutt, do you know how annoyed I am at that," Takashi said in anger?
"Asia-chan mentioned you lost your memory, mutt-chan, so I'll tell you something. You are a mutt between a human and a devil. Telling by the power you have I would say you are from a lost pillar," Raynare said with an evil grin.
Takashi stepped back in shock as he said ", I… I… I was already… a devil… before… I met… Buchou."
[Aibou, snap out of it! We came to save the girl, so let's save her,] Ddraig yelled as the Boosted Gear yelled ", boost!"
[Ddraig's right, Takashi. Let's do what we came here to do. We can find out more about your family later,] Albion said as Divide Dividing's wings expanded.
"Yeah, your both right, let's go save Asia-chan," Takashi said as he snapped out of his shock and charged into the crowd of priests.
"Keep him busy. The ritual is almost over," Raynare ordered as she moved her focus to the cross that Asia is on.
Takashi then entered a massive brawl with the priests. He dodged as many attacks as he could while fighting back. "Boost! Divide," yelled the Boosted Gear and Divine Dividing respectively, this repeated over the course of the fight! Takashi, slowly but surely, made his way towards the pedestal.
"Yeeeeaaaaaaaaa," Asia screamed as a green light came out of her body and into Raynare's!
"It's finally mine. With Twilight Healing I am unstoppable," Raynare cheered in glee as Asia went silent and limp.
"Hey, you fallen shit! What did you do to Asia-chan," Takashi yelled as he punched a priest out of his way!
"I took her sacred gear, mutt-chan. If a sacred gear is removed from its user the user dies," Raynare said with a laugh as a ring appeared on both of her hands.
Takashi then snapped out of anger as a large silver aurora covered his body. He shoved what little priests are left out of his way and flew towards Raynare at a speed she could not see. The next thing she knew was that she was punched through the roof of the room, into the church, and crashed on to the floor.
Takashi then flew over to Asia and removed her from the cross. He carried her bridal style through the hole that Raynare made. He then laid her died body on a pew with large tears falling from his anger filled face.
Yuuto and Koneko looked at their sad friend, as they finish fighting the priests as Freed escaped, and wept in silence as they focused their anger at Raynare.
Rias and Akeno came through a hole in one of the walls. With just one look, they knew the situation.
As Raynare got up, she saw Takashi walking towards her. She was then lifted by her neck by Takashi's right hand.
"You killed a girl, who was alone all her life and who just wanted a friend, for some lousy rings," Takashi yelled at the top of his lungs in anger, ignoring a sharp pain that is forming in his back!
"Divide," yelled the Divine Dividing!
Raynare started to feel her power leaving her. She also felt Takashi's grow, growing way more than the power he took from her would give him.
A silver magic seal appeared behind Takashi as he yelled in pain as ten devil wings came bursting out of his back, this caused him to let go of Raynare.
Raynare fell to her knees as she and everyone else looked at Takashi in shock, even the stone face Koneko was showing more emotion than she has shown in a while.
"How can this be… that family died out during the Great War," Raynare said in fear as she tried to push herself away from Takashi, completely forgetting the fact she could fly.
Takashi then had a vision. It showed a man and woman looking towards the back of the car they were in. Both their faces blurred. The only thing Takashi heard were two words as the vision faded.
The Boosted Gear and the Divine Dividing glowed. When the glowing stopped the two sacred gears looked slightly different. The Boosted Gear had a second jewel near the elbow and has gold spikes come out the sides and back. The Divide Dividing's wing became larger with silver lining on the white parts.
"Explosion," yelled the Boosted Gear!
"Eruption," yelled the Divine Dividing!
Yelling at the top of his lungs, Takashi said ", my name is Takashi Myoujou! I was given this name by my family, but it is not the name I was given at my birth! MY TRUE NAME IS CIDRIT LUCIFER! AND IN THE NAME OF THE LUCIFER FAMILY, I WILL DESTORY YOU," he then pointed his right pointer finger at Raynare, who froze in complete fear as Takashi's aurora grew ten times its size.
[Hahahahahaha! For our host to be a descendant of the original Maoh, what luck we have! Right, Albion,] Ddraig said in an over joyed voice!
[You're right, Ddriag! We have the best of luck this time around,] Albion yelled in glee!
Everyone one of the Occult Research Club members just stared at Takashi as he lifted Raynare again, in the same fashion as before.
"Takashi-kun is a descendant of Lucifer. My-my, Buchou you found a diamond in the ruff with him," Akeno said as she looked at Rias, whose face was still in shock.
"Takashi…," was all that Rias could mutter as she just stared at Takashi.
Takashi pulled back his left fist, preparing to destroy Raynare. "Turn into the light, you fallen trash," he said as he punched her in the face with the Boosted Gear. A larger blast of silver energy came from the impact and evaporated Raynare. The aurora around Takashi vanished after the attack as a green light flouted in front of him.
Everyone walked over to Takashi, who was crying for his dead friend. Rias stepped in front of him. With tears forming in her eyes, she hugged the sad descendant of Lucifer.
Takashi was in shock at the gesture but returned the hug anyway.
"I'm sorry I ran off like that, Buchou," Takashi said through his tears.
"It's ok. But please don't be sad. You remembered your name and Asia-chan is not gone," Rias said as she stroked one of Takashi's devil wings, staring at them in awe.
"What do you mean," Takashi asked in confusion as he broke the hug?
Rias took out a crimson red bishop chess piece. "With this I can bring back Asia-chan," Rias said with a smile.
"Wait you can bring back the dead," Takashi asked in shock?
"If a person has been dead for a short time, an evil piece can bring them back," the crimson haired heiress said with a smile.
Takashi smiled as his tears went from tears of sadness to those of joy. Rias grabbed the green light and walked over to Asia. Rias placed the green light on Asia body along with the chess piece. She began to chant. "I, Rias Gremory, command by my name, to thee Asia Argent. To allow thy soul to descend to earth once more. To become my devil servant. As your new master, I grant you a new life."
Then the green light and the bishop piece sank into Asia's body.
"Did it work," Takashi asked in a worried tone?
Before Rias could respond Asia sat up from where she was lying.
"Asia," Takashi yelled as he hugged the blonde girl!
"Takashi-san," Asia said in confusion.
"Hello, Asia Argent. My name is Rias Gremory and I'm your master," Rias said with a smile as she patted Asia on the head.
"Takashi-san, what happened," Asia asked as she saw the boy's ten wings?
"It's a long story, Asia-chan," Takashi said with a smile.
Next day After School
Takashi and Rias, in their school uniforms, were sitting in the living room of the Myoujou house with Rukia and Mr. and Mrs. Myoujou.
"What did you want to talk about, Takashi," Mr. Myoujou asked his foster son?
"I remembered my name," Takashi said to his foster family, whose faces became shocked at what he said.
"You remembered you name, Nii-san! That's great," Rukia said with a smile on her face.
"So, what is your name, Takashi," Mrs. Myoujou asked her foster son?
"Cidrit. He is from a noble family from the country I'm from. Our families are close friends and my Nii-sama has been watching over the Lucifer assets, because the sole family member disappeared. Takashi is that person's son," Rias said with her bright smile.
"So your name is Cidrit. Do you want us to call you that," Mr. Myoujou asked Takashi?
"No, keep calling me Takashi. It's the name you guys gave me and I will cherish it forever but I will go by Cidrit when I have to," Takashi said with a smile as he rubbed the back of his head.
The three Myoujous smiled happily as Rukia hugged Takashi?
Takashi frowned a little as Rias said ", I'm deeply sorry about this but my Nii-sama will become Takashi's new guardian."
The Myoujous frowned at this as Rukia asked ", why is he doing that?"
Rias replied to the angry girl with ", Nii-sama is in charge of the Takashi's family assets and for Takashi to receive them, Nii-sama has to look after him."
"I'm sorry, Rukia-chan but I want to find out about my family. And to do that I need to do this," Takashi said with a stern face as he moved Rukia to arm's length, whose face is covered with tears.
"Nii-sama is preparing an apartment for Takashi. So he will be moving out tomorrow. Nii-sama is also sending over a maid, so you don't have to worry about him. I will send you an address when the apartment is ready," Rias said to the Myoujous with a feeling of disgust at herself.
Mr. Myoujou had a look of sadness at the fact the boy he looked after for three years is leaving. Mrs. Myoujou held his hand with a smile as she said ", do what you must, Takashi, but always remember that you will always have a home here."
Takashi began to cry as he hugged his foster parents. "Thank you. Thank you, both for taking care of me for the last three years" Takashi said with tears running down his face even more.
The two sad parents returned the hug as Rukia joined in as they began to cry.
Rias looked on at the sad moment with tears in her eyes.
Rukia broke off from the hug. She walked over to Rias, both still in tears, and said ", you better take care of my Nii-san."
Rias wiped away her tears and said in a proud voice ", I will take very good care of Takashi."
"Good bye, Mom. Dad. Rukia-chan. I will miss you all," Takashi said as he broke the hug.
"Good bye Takashi/Nii-san," the Myoujous said as Takashi and Rias headed for the door.
Before he got to the door, Takashi said to his family ", that play I'm in is in two days. I hope to see you all there."
"We'll be there, Nii-san," Rukia said as she waved good-bye to Takashi.
Takashi smiled as he and Rias left.
On their way to the club room, Takashi said ", thanks for doing this, Buchou. I did not want them to get hurt because of me."
Rias grabbed his hand, which shocked the boy, as she said ", no thanks is needed, Takashi. You are my dear servant and friend. If you are ever in need, I will be there for you along with everyone else."
The two devils continued to hold hands all the way to the club room. When they entered the room, Takashi could feel blood on his lip because Asia was wearing a naughty maid outfit.
"A… A… Asia-chan, what are you wearing," Takashi said in surprise.
"Akeno-san said I would need to wear this because I will be staying with you and she said you would like it," Asia said with a blush as she fidgeted with her skirt.
"Akeno-san," Takashi yelled as his raven haired senpai!
"Fufufu. Sorry, Takashi-kun, but by that look of blood on your lip, you like it. Maybe I should wear one for you as well," Akeno said with her usual smile.
Takashi then imagined Rias and Akeno wearing revealing maid outfits.
"Takashi-senpai has a perverted face," Koneko said coldly.
Takashi then remembered, as he wiped the blood from his face, what Asia said and asked Rias ", why is Asia going to stay with me?"
Rias smiled as she said ", She wanted to stay with you and to pay you back for saving her, she will be a maid under the one Nii-sama is sending over. She will also be going to school here."
Takashi looked in surprise as everyone else but Asia and Koneko laughed.
THE END
"Happy reviewers make a happy author."
