The sun began to rise in Japan. Entering every little crack, alley and house that it touched, until it reached a small house. Inside seemed to be very heavily infested room filled with many books, toys, games and… 'really' dirty stuff. And on the bed seemed to a young boy, covered by his sheets until the alarm on his stand went off, showing a very seductive girl in a schoolgirls uniform, telling him to wake up.
He reached for the alarm and pressed the button, turning it off. "Ugh…. man, I need to stop staying up so late…" He groaned, crawling out of his sheets, revealing a sleek, yet unique style of brown hair. He yawned and stretched before he flinched in pain, holding his left arm, "Damn it… again?" He complained before he got out of bed to get himself ready for school. It has been like this for him… as usual.
"Man…. today just had to be a school day…." He groaned, looking at a picture he took, as the photo showed that of Rias, a soft warm smile creeping onto his face, "What I wouldn't give to be with that gal…"
"Issei! You need to get up! You'll miss breakfast before school!" His mother called out to him.
"Hai!" I responded and grabs his uniform to put on. Once done, he walks down the stairs before heading to the table and grabbed himself breakfast.
"Issei, do you think you could go to the store after school and grab some Ginko nuts for later?" She asked him with a smile.
"Sure thing!" He smiled before finishing up his breakfast. "Gotta go now! I can't be late for school!"
"Please don't cause any trouble again, Issei," His mother reminded.
He sighed from this, but nodded. "I'll be good…." He responded before leaving his home and head to school.
That school being none other than Kuoh Academy. He still hates how that one guy takes the best spot in class! That was the only spot to see all the girls who run around the track field! And what was worse, was the rumors he was hearing about him in the same club with not only Koneko, but Rias as well!
"Grr! I swear, if that foreign jerk is in a club with them, he'll pay for it!" He growled, gripping his fist tightly.
What he didn't know was that that person is in the club;. And today was one day he would never forget.
(Insert opening - Clattanoia - Overlord Op 1 - NateWantsToBattle Ver.)
The tune starts off with a few instrumentals as it turns into a passionate song.
(Can someone give me the answer? To my question, Where's my soul?)
As it plays, several Eyecon's fly down from the screen. Each one having a number until one that doesn't have a number stops at the center. The button gets pressed as we see it's Specter's faceplate in it as the title card appears.
(It's like a virus in my body while I'm dreaming)
The screen then cuts to Cody walking along the halls of Kuoh, looking down at his hands at his Eyecon, pressing the button on it.
(When I wake up all that's left of me are bones)
It then cuts to Xenovia training with her Excalibur pieces as she stops and looks up at the school looking straight at Cody.
(I'm in a panic! Get out hurry)
Several of the Luminary Eyecon's appear before each one is pressed before combining into the superior seal of the Eyecon's.
(Oh there are mysteries and many miseries)
The screen quickly shifts to an all-out war between Angels, Devils, and Fallen Angels as they battle it out to take control over an soulless Eyecon.
(Dead or alive, I'm on the brink of self-destruction)
We then cut to The Occult Research Club as we see the rest of the group, enjoying their free time. As the camera passes through slowly.
(As I'm roaming from left to right to hell)
From Issei reading a dirty magazine, to Kiba polishing his sword, to Konkeo to chewing on a large gummy bear.
(An invitation to come disappear)
It then changes to Rias drinking some tea, to Akeno poking at the Ghost Gadgets, then to Asia who's combing Gasper's hair as he sits there, playing a game.
(We're dancing one, two, three steps on this dark stage)
Out from the window stood Azael as he kept watch over them all before a odd presence appears as everyone turns their heads towards it.
(Raise your flag, March on fight)
Out past Kuoh Academy marched not only thousands of Ganma, but also several hidden fallen angels, devils, and more as they all grin from ear to ear.
(Break your mask and show some pride)
Leading the charge was not only Necrom, but also several others high head enemies as they begin to approach the area.
(While this war just sends a shiver down my crooked spine)
Seeing this army made Rias and the rest of the club get ready for fight as their enemies begin to charge at them all.
(Wars and swords tears and blood)
Cody charges in as the Ghost Driver appears around his waist. As he does, Senin watches from afar as he frowns with disinterest, but a light above Cody makes him smile slightly.
(Feel my heart begin to race, As I laugh in this bloodbath we made)
As the gang charges in, Cody lifts up the Specter Eyecon as he presses the button before he quickly dons on the armor of the Blue Devil.
(Can someone give me the answer)
Cody is the first one to charge in, punching and striking at every enemy in his way as Necrom joins the fight.
(To my question, Where's my soul? Where's my heart?)
Rias along with the others power up as they unleashes either a blast of energy, a slash, or a powerful punch, sending them flying.
(Am I losing my own self?)
Above Necrom was the symbols of the Gammaizer's above him as each one turns into energy as they give it to Necrom as he charges in, full power.
(Don't you hesitate, Go this way)
And as they fight, Cody uses the Eyecon's of Nobunaga, Tutankhamun, and Houdini at first as their clash begins to change the area below them.
(I don't know, And I don't care)
But he then quickly changes them to the Rider Eyecon's of Agito and OOO before it changes to the silhouette of Deep Specter as it stands tall behind him, before it soon gains a light glow turning into the silhouette of Sin Specter before it faded away.
(Tell me are you not entertained now?)
As their fight continues, images of the Ganma World, Hell, Heaven, and the Void appear as it seems that they'll be colliding together, causing panic.
(I'll just keep surviving, I just cannot hide it all)
As Cody gets backed into a corner, Xenovia helps him up as they stare down Necrom together before charging in.
(I am not to fall a victim, I'll continue living in this, Misery driven world)
Cody then jumps up to deliver a Rider Kick as Xenovia jumps up as she delivers a deadly slice as they come down on Necrom one last time before the screen fades into the title card.
Another day at Kuoh, another life as a devil. Cody sighed softly in his seat, taking out the Musashi Eyecon, looking at it carefully to see it once more. 'To think…. One was so close to me already…. It'll be a long time before I get them all…' He sighed in his thoughts.
"Oh come on!" He turned his head to see the brunette. "Again with taking my favorite spot!? What's with you? I was about to sit there!"
The young devil groaned softly, "I've been here for the past five minutes Issei. You on the other hand just got here." He argued, "Sides, I rather know I have this seat than the guy who likes to, 'Peek on girls'!" He said audibly, gaining the attention of the other girls in class as they begin to glare at Issei.
"Oi!" He exclaimed at Cody, as if he didn't want him to say it out loud. "What about you huh?"
"I have two sisters who taught me to respect women and drill it into my head to where I know not to be a pervert." He crossed his arms, though oddly enough seeing Issei's face light up brightly.
"Y-You have two sisters?" He then got closer, "Please introduce me to them!"
"Hell no!" Cody denied. "One, my older sister works while my other sister is only in middle school!"
"Pervert," One girl said about Issei.
"At secondly, there is no way you will be near them!" He continued. "No one, and I mean no one acts as a pervert to my sisters!"
"Aww… come on! Please, Senpai?" He pleaded.
Cody's eye twitched until he noticed Yurusen floating above Issei, with a…ice cube? No one even noticed the floating piece of ice. Yurusen giggled and sneakily placed the ice in his pants from behind. The brown haired teen yelped as he began to fidget around until the ice cube fell out of his pants, causing some students to laugh from that scene.
"Seems to me, you still need some work." He chuckled as the bell rang, causing the teen to growl and walk back into his seat. "Thanks Yurusen…" He whispered to the spirit.
"No problem, be lucky that Yokai/Devil chick isn't around or he will be ogling like a dog." he replied.
"Tell me about it…" He groaned. "Any new luck on another Eyecon?"
"Not yet but luckily that Youkai Devil is making it easier for me… that and boss won't have to wring me again."
"Alright…. Inform me when you sense one." He said, now getting ready for school work.
He nodded before vanishing into a puff of smoke while Cody simply listened to the class lecture. Though from afar, a small ripple emerges as a dark eye and an evil chuckle comes out from it.
"I smell a Dragon…"
It wasn't long before school was out. Luckily, Rias sent the young devil a message, allowing him a day off due to yesterday. A soft smile formed on him as he began to make his way out of the school… though a quick feeling overcame him as he moved to the left, seeing Issei rush by and faceplant on the sidewalk below.
"Sneak attack Issei? Doesn't fit ya." Cody chuckled softly.
"Ow…" he groaned and sat up before rubbing his head. "Okay, just why do you have to take the good stuff!?"
"Who knows? Maybe because you are always late?" He smirked. "While I'm an early bird."
"Oi! I'm never late for class!" Issei argued. "I'm always here on time!"
"Then why do you always miss the desk that I always take?"
"That's because- Well I-" he tried to find the right answer.
"Let me guess… you snoop around and peep on girls?"
"I-I… I uh…" He slumped his shoulders.
Cody just rolled his eyes before patting his shoulder, "Maybe you should just accept that I'm in that seat till graduation, alright?" He chuckled as he began to walk off. Though as he does, he takes a quick look back, noticing the teen following him now. "Why are you following me, Issei?"
"I'm studying you…" He responded.
"Studying, me?"
He nodded, "If I know how you are, act or do… I could possibly pick up on those skills, get my seat back, and get a-"
"Harem?" Cody finished. He groaned softly, "This is real life, Issei. Harems don't exist anymore, only on manga and anime."
"Then I'll have to work hard to make it happen!"
Cody sighed before he turned around. "Yeah whatever… just quit following me."
"Not until I get my seat back!" He shouted out with glee.
'Ugh…. just what I need…' He groaned to himself, "Just don't follow me home, got it? I don't want you anywhere near my sisters…."
"Can't I see them for a moment?" He pleaded, oddly enough trying to dream on what they look like.
Cody froze, turning around before poking his forehead, "Don't even dare… I don't want them on your dirty mind…."
"Please introduce me to them!"
"No way! I told you already, I said no. And no means no!"
As the two walked, a quick shiver went down the devil's spine. He blinked before he began to look around, 'No no no… not now! Please tell me it's just a shiver!' He asked in his thoughts, "Yurusen, please tell me that was just you?" He muttered.
"That wasn't a shiver, there is a Ganma nearby!"
"Guh.. damn it all." He cursed himself, "Why does there have to be one now?" He turned to the spirit, "Please tell me it's after an Eyecon?"
"I would have sensed it too you know?" Yurusen informed. "It must be here for a) the Musashi Eyecon you got or b) That hidden power in the pervert."
Cody nearly fell from that, turning back to the spirit, though forgetting about the teen, "Wait, he has some type of power too?!" He said outloud.
"Who are you talking to?" Issei asked.
Cody groaned once more, "Issei… You need to run and head back home now…" He pleaded.
"Why?" He repeated. "Are you trying to scare me off so I won't meet your sisters?"
"That's not what I-"
"Found you….. Dragon…." What formed out of thin air was another Ganma. But this one was different than the last. It had a red hooded coat with white trims, with two large boxing gloves on his fists and red boots as was getting into a stance similar to one Muhammad Ali.
"Okay…. This is a unique Ganma…" Cody blinked, turning to Yurusen, "Did he possess the boxes gloves of Muhammad or something?"
"Seems like it," Yurusen observed.
"Okay, just who are you talking to?!" The pervert asked again.
"Nothing to worry about…. But you need to head home now, Issei." Cody said, placing his bag on the ground. "And I don't know why you want Issei, but you're not getting him Ganma."
"Gamma?" Issei blinked, looking around and saw nothing.
"Issei… Please…. Just go." He pleaded, as the fiery energy formed around his waist, making his Ghost Driver before he opened it up. He then took out his Eyecon, clicking on it before dropping it into place and in his pose.
EYE!
BATHCIRIMIRO! BATCHIRIMIRO!
"Henshin!" Cody called out as the Specter Damashii flew around the rider, before he pulled and pushed in the lever.
KAIGAN! SPECTER….
READY GO! KAKUGO! DOKI, DOKI, GHOST!
The Specter transient armor formed around him before the Damashii placed on top of him. The Faceplate donned as the Rider Gem's shined on his horns before he pulled the hood down and got into a fighting stance.
"EEEHHH!? Are you some tokusatsu hero!?" Issei gawked as Cody rushed in and punched the 'air' but Issei could have swore there was a minor glimpse of something the moment he punched the air.
"I suggest you leave, Ganma. You're not going to harm anyone here!" Cody growled, striking the Ganma in the chest and tossing it back.
"Not until I retrieve what lies inside the human," The Ganma countered, delivering a right hook across Cody's face.
He groaned in pain, being flung into a patch of bushes near by. "Oww…. Guess I was right… He does have Muhammad's power…" He groaned, rubbing his cheek. "That guy was always known for his right hook…"
The Ganma huffed as Cody got back up and brought out a GanGanHand, twirling it around as he gets in a new stance.
"Oi, close the handle by pulling back the orange grip." Yurusen instructed.
"Close it?" He blinked, taking hold of the grip and pulling back on it. As he does, the hand then closes to form that of a rifle. "Huh… Just how useful is this and the Sword?" He questioned. He then looked at the Ganma before pointing the rifle at it, and taking a few shots at the dark spirit.
When the shots came in contact, the dark spirit was now visible as Issei's eyes widened.
"EEEEEHHHHHHH!?" His jaw dropped further.
"Ugh.. Issei!" Cody shouted out to him, "Just get out of here, now!" He pleaded once more, taking a few more shots before pulling the grip forward, changing it back into the hand mode before charging ahead and swiping at the Ganma. Sparks flew off with each strike before he sent it high into the air. Cody looked up as he gripped the lever and pushed it in once more.
DAI-KAIGAN! SPECTER: OMEGA-DRIVE!
He let out a battle cry as he jumped after the Ganma. His foot enveloped in the blue energy as he quickly got into his rider kick and struck the Ganma. It cried in pain before erupting into a ball of fire, leaving only the slightly worn out boxing gloves of Ali as he dropped back onto the ground.
"Man…. I hope these things stop coming…" Cody complained before reverting back to normal. He turned around to see Issei still astonished from what happened. "Ugh… just great…." He said with annoyance, walking over to him.
"Please tell me you're brain is still intact?" The young devil asked him.
"Holy... " He looked at Cody. "Are you some sort of superhero!? You gotta tell me, did any girls fawn over you? How can I do something that cool." More and more questions began to escape from him very quickly.
"Woah woah woah! Calm down Issei…" Cody said, placing his hand on his head, "Please… do not tell anyone about this, alright? Others cannot know about this. In return… I'll…. answer your questions..."
"You better tell me everything!" He pointed at Cody before running away.
Cody sighed softly, yet annoyed as he grabbed his bag, "If Rias finds out about this… She'll kill me…" He said to himself.
"Eh, look on the bright side, at least that Ganma didn't harm the perv," Yurusen assured.
"Well… I guess you're right," Cody sighed as he walked home.
Issei was on the bridge, pondering over what he saw earlier. Who knew his classmate was actually a superhero like in those Sentai shows he watches!? He was giddy with excitement to know more and if possible learn from him too? Maybe he could finally get what he wanted?
"Hehehe! This is gonna be awesome!" He then blinked for a moment, "Or… could this be a sign that nothing will change?" He pondered to himself, before a faint image of Rias entered his mind.
"And… why am I still thinking of her?" He sighed, "Man, getting girls to like you is hard…"
"E-Excuse me…" a female voice called out. "You're Hyoudou Issei, from Kuoh Academy, aren't you?"
He turned his head to see a girl with long black hair and beautiful eyes. 'I don't recognize the uniform…' He noted in thought. 'What school is she from?' He then noticed how cute she looks. 'Kawaii!'
"A-Ano…"
He then realized that she was talking to him. "Oh, d-did you need something from me?"
The girl fidgeted before asking him, "Hyoudou, a-are you seeing anyone right now?"
Wait what? Did he hear that right? He shook his head for a moment before looking at her again, "Uh, n-no, no one, really."
"Terrific!" Hearing this made Issei confused.
"U-Um, would you mind… going out with me?" the girl offered.
"E-Eh…?" He then realized what she said. "EH!?"
At the entrance of Kuoh, Cody waited early for Issei, even telling him to get here early so he can tell Issei the truth about him. But one thing did made him wonder, "Say, Yurusen?" Cody called out the spirit, "Do you think he deserves to know everything or just me being this 'Specter' guy?"
"Well… he did saw what happened… rule about us spirits is that if they see us, we simply tell them."
"Really?"
"Yep simple as hat," Yurusen shrugged. "Besides people know about ghosts, spirits, and Yokai than they do with Devils, Angels, and Fallen Angels."
"Ugh…." Cody groaned, rubbing his hair in frustration, "Rias will kill me for sure this time…."
"This matter involves spirits so technically and by rules, she can't."
"Yes, but as part of her household, I'm obligated to tell her if I told anyone the truth about me…." He responded.
"Yeah, yeah, but you do realize that from Sennin, he wants me to make sure you beat the Ganma." He vanished in smoke before reappearing with the giant book and turned to a certain page. "And by rules, anything involving the Ganma, no other person can't commit an act against the person that fights a Ganma. If they do, they are to speak to Sennin for further questions and/or demands."
"Which means what, exactly?" He asked the spirit, confused by these 'rules'.
Yurusen facepalmed. "I am truly stuck with an idiot…" He muttered under his breath before looking at Cody. "In simple words, she has to deal with Sennin if she has a problem with the rules. She can't hurt you or Sennin will do the deed by stopping her. No one ever defies Sennin, not even the Maous."
"Regardless, I know I'm going to be in deep trouble with her…" Cody sighed.
"Relax, if she tries, I'll just tell her."
"Thanks, Yurusen." The spirit nodded before vanishing in a puff of smoke. The young Devil turned around, only to see Issei walking up to the young devil, "About time Issei. Look I- wait a minute, why do you look so happy?"
"Because I got a girlfriend!" he announced.
"You know, the child who cried wolf did die from telling too many lies, right?" Cody pointed out.
Issei grinned before showing a photo to him. Cody looked and saw a photo of a very cute girl standing next to Issei. "Okay, you're not lying…" He got out.
"Told ya!" He beamed. "And the best of all, Yuuma-chan and I are going out again tomorrow!"
"Huh…. Well, congrats on that Issei. I didn't think this would happen in decades." Cody nodded in approval, "So, let's head to the roof and I'll answer your questions, okay?" He gestured to the teen as they walked up to the roof of the school before they sat down and began to talk. "Alright, ask away kiddo."
"Alright, how did you all go Super sentai and all?" he asked.
"Well…" Cody rubbed the back of his head. He reached in his pocket and handed Issei the Specter Eyecon. "Hold on to it for a moment."
"Why?" He asked until his eyes widen when he now was able to see Yurusen.
"Sup."
"EEEEEHHHH?!" He shouted, backing up before pointing to the spirit, "W-W-What is that?!"
"Well, 'that' is Yurusen. My borrowed familiar." Cody explained. "He's a spirit."
"A Spirit? You mean like the Yokai?"
"Sort of but we all are under the same category. Yokai, ghosts, phantoms, spirits, we all live under one place far away." Yurusen explained, sitting on Issei's shoulder. "For me, I'm a Spirit and second head of the Island of Spirits."
"You mean… you're a leader?"
"Well, second-in-command." He shrugged. "Anyways, that boxer spirit you saw was another thing to know, they are not in our category of spirits. They are Ganma, pure dark spirits unlike those you see in stories and books."
"And I was killed by one before the start of this school year. And was brought back to stop these Ganma from coming into our world." Cody explained.
"Then who gave you that power?" Cody's response was jabbing his thumb at Yurusen.
"With it, I'm called Kamen Rider Specter."
"Kamen Rider?" Issei blinked, "Who came up with that name?"
"Truthfully, Senin got the name from an old tomb he saw once. Can't remember it, but it had to do something with some king eons ago along with an alchemist." Yurusen responded. "I'm pretty sure someone would have picked it up. Old stuff tends to be found."
Somewhere in Japan, a young man sneeze, nearly losing his stick that held his next pair of underpants. He blinked before checking his pocket and shrugged, continuing his travel around Japan.
"And for me, if I wanna become human again, I'll need to collect 15 specific Eyecons in order to have my wish granted." Cody explained. "One down, 14 to go now."
"So… you are finding 15 of these eyeball thingies to make a wish to be brought back? While fighting these… Ganma?"
"That's pretty much it."
"That's…. So…. Awesome!" He smiled brightly.
"If you count this as 'awesome; than yeah… 'Totally' awesome…" He said sarcastically. "Look, Issei, these Ganma are no laughing matter."
"What he said, believe me kid, the Ganma are very sneaky, even other supernatural beings would stay out of their way since they have power that no other creature would dare touch." Yurusen explained. "Some Devils have the guts but, they literally lose their guts to them. Not to mention..." He floated to Issei's left arm. "That hidden power of yours… hmm…" He poked the arm for a moment before his stubby arm glowed and poked his arm once again. Issei jolted for the moment the glow died down, it revealed a red glove-like armor piece that covered his forearm while leaving his hand bare. On top, it has a green gem with some spikes on it. "There we go."
"Okay, how did you do that Yurusen?" Cody questioned.
"Duh, it takes power to make it appear, that and Sennin knows some powerful magic, hence why the Maous or other beings don't defy him. Never anger the great sage or fear his wrath."
"Point taken… but…" Cody then directs Yurusen's attention as Issei was trying to do something to get it to work.
"Hey, stop waving that Gear around! You'll kill someone with that!" Issei jumped as he stood straight.
"H-Hai… eto… how did you know about this?"
"The Great Sage, knows all kinds of magic." Yurusen said proudly. "I have learned a few things from him too. Plus, that gear of yours is that to a dragon. Heh, guess they are still alive after all."
"A dragon?"
"Powerful beings, more ancient than any in existence, except Ganma of course. The Ganma are the reason why there are barely any dragons. They turned them into Gundari, dark versions of everyday dragons."
"Wait, that's what happened to Dragons?" Cody got out, "Jeez… and here I thought killing people was as dark as you could get with the Ganma…"
"They are from another dimension."
"So, why Issei? Was it really cause of this item, or the dragon part of him?" Cody questioned.
"Maybe both, but one thing I know is that if the dragon in that item is a special dragon, then it is obvious they will try and find him again." Yurusen shrugged before looking at Issei. "But right now, Issei, stay out of trouble, be careful of what is around you since Ganma can be invisible, and keep your pants up when you date that Yuuma chick."
"Aww…. Come on. Do I have to?" He whined.
"Yes." Cody agreed, "This is your first date and girlfriend. No guys screws it up when they just got together."
"Fine… hey, wait how do you know about dating?' Issei asked Yurusen.
"Like I said, I'm a spirit. We learn the right thing and we often give advice to people who are able to see us. Now go, shoo."
Issei grumbled as he walked away but Yurusen groaned. "I just hope that Yuuma chick doesn't kill him…"
Cody crossed his arms, looking down slightly, "Though… this is odd if you ask me…" Cody looked to the spirit, "How did he get one so quickly? He's a pervert through and through. I would debate it would've been college before he ever got someone…."
"Well… I may have seen through that chick. And no, not in the pervert way, I mean Yuuma isn't Yumma." Yurusen frowned. "She is a Fallen Angel. And the reason was that gauntlet of his. A dragon is special and a Sacred Gear is what they target."
"Wait, they exist too?"
"Yeah, what do you think? Now if you excuse me, I have to watch over him. If what I guess is true, she will kill him."
Cody turned to the spirit, "And may I ask, 'how' were you able to tell that she was a fallen angel? We only saw her through a picture."
Yurusen reached in his cape and presented a pitch black feather. "There are no birds with this feather here. They are only around during the autumn season. And yet there is one here and it's fresh. Fallen Angels are the only ones with feathers as dark as this too. I found it by the bridge that leads to school when I wanted to explore the city. Plus her eyes are to that of a sadist."
Cody groaned to himself once more, "Rias will hate me for skipping out on today's meeting.. But.. Damn it Issei…" He sighed to himself.
The sun set after school was done. Issei met up with Yuuma as the two began to have their date. Eating at a nice place, playing some games, and a few walks around the city until they began to head back, walking through the park with her arms around his.
"I gotta admit, spite this being my second date, I'm glad this happened, Yuuma-chan." He smiled at her.
"Same here, Issei-kun," Yuuma smiled as they were by the fountain. "Ne, Issei-kun."
"Yes?"
"You will do anything for me, right?"
"Of course."
"Then… will you die for me?"
"Ha-" He stopped upon the words entering his head. "Uh, can you repeat that?"
"I asked….." She leaned into his ear, "Will you die for me?" She asked, her voice now different from before, much more older and sadistic than before.
Issei now became nervous as he stood back a bit. "Y-You're joking… right, Yuuma-chan?"
She grinned, moving away as a flash of light enveloped her, in seconds her clothes were destroyed, revealing a very black uniform that barely covered her body as a pair of pure black wings formed on her back.
"W-What is going on…" Issei got out now freaked out. Was this what the small spirit has been talking about!?
"Oh Issei… I have to admit. This was fun…. But I think the charade needs to end…" Yuuma said, forming a spear made out of light as she gripped it.
"W-Wait, hold on!" He pleaded. "J-Just why are you doing this, Yuuma-chan?"
"To take that power of yours," She pointed at his arm. Issei remembered the gauntlet that appeared when the spirit made it show itself.
'Was this power what the two meant…?' He realized.
"Now say your pra-"
"Hey, scanty, sadist bitch!" She blinked before raising her head, only for an anvil to hit her. Above her was a familiar spirit and floated to Issei. "You alright, pervert?"
"Y-You! What are you doing here?" Issei asked.
"Saving your life? Now let's go! I'm almost out of useful items from my cape." He informed, tugging his arm.
"You lousy pathetic spirit!" She growled, grabbing Yurusen before slamming him on the ground and stomping on him with anger, "Dont. Get. In. My. WAY!" She said, constantly slamming her heel onto the spirit, as it was unable to move now.
"That. Ow! Hurts. Owie!" Yurusen said through each stomp. "Ow… and I thought Sennin's pulling hurts…"
She panted before turning to Issei, "Now… where were we?" She grinned, holding up her spear. But as soon as she tossed the spear, a rifle sound went off as a blue ball of energy shot the spear into bits.
From afar, Cody stood in his Specter armor, holding up the GanGanHand - Rifle Mode as he slowly walked to the others, "I figured it was odd that Issei got a girl this early…."
"You owe me 100 Yen Cody!" Yurusen shouted as he now had a crutch and bandages all over him.
"Issei… I suggest you go…." He said to the teen, "This monster only wants your power, and I won't let her even get near you now…"
"H-Hai!' He quickly said before running away as Yurusen followed the pervert to safety.
"You're not getting away!" Yuuma growled, about to chase after them until Cody got in front of her.
"Sorry monster… But you're not going after him…." Cody pointed his rifle at her, "I suggest you leave, or I will kill you…."
She glared at him before she blinked before gaining a smirk and chuckled audibly. "Hehehehe…. I didn't think the owner of the legendary Eyecons, was a devil…" She produced another spear, "This will be easy pickings for me…"
Cody grimaced until a cluster of Eyecons floated before landing, seeing a group of those footsoldiers like the ones before. "Oh , come on!" He complained.
"After him… no one gets in our way of our goal…" One of them said and charged after the Devil and Fallen Angel.
Cody growled in annoyance, taking a few shots at the Ganma's that approached him before he switched his weapon into its hand mode, before he started to swat them away. The Fallen Angel too had trouble as the footsoldiers were now in her way of the Sacred Gear. Even these dark spirits were after the Sacred Gear. She once recalled dark spirits, worse than anyone encountered being around, guess the legends were true.
"To think, they do exist…." She grimaced, knocking a few away before sending a spear at the devil, scraping his shoulder as he yelped in pain.
He gripped his arm, before kicking a few Ganma's away. "Just what is that spear made out of? Acid?" He questioned the Fallen Angel.
"Ho? Your master didn't tell you?" She giggled, "Devil's are poisoned by the light. Anything made out of it, will instantly feel like the worse kind of pain imaginable…. And that was a scratch… imagine being impaled by this." She grinned.
He paled before a Ganma struck the Fallen Angel from behind. She turned around to see another footsoldier as it raised his blade but she blocked it, the two individuals slowly beginning to be outnumbers and grouped on by the Ganma soldiers.
"Seems to me, that we're surrounded…. Or should I say… You, devil." She grinned, tossing her spear far, but once it left her hands, she turned into motes of light and followed after the spear.
"Damn it…" He growled as he fired more and more rounds. When another Ganma was about to attack him, a sword impale its chest, making it look back as Cody saw the fellow blonde. "Kiba?"
"Rias sent me to find you. She doesn't like to be waited you know? But…" He turned back to the Ganma, "Seeing how this explains everything. I suggest you go after the Fallen Angel quickly. I can handle these guys."
"A-Alright…" he nodded before chasing after the Fallen Angel.
With the Ganma, they glared at Kiba who had a normal smile. "Who is first?"
They looked at each other until heavy footsteps were heard as one Ganma stood out from the rest. It had pearl armor with its left arm having a cross shaped sword on its gauntlet. Its waist having the Ganma seal as its armor was that to inquisitors of old times. Its head had four blue eyes with a helmet-like head. "I am." it said but to Yuuto, he felt holy power from the being. It was like… a Ganma was infused with the holy energy.
"You… you have a piece of Excalibur?" He growled, gripping his sword.
"Excalibur? Feh, Our dear prince wished one of us be infused with a holy item. To make sure we have countermeasures against the Three Factions." The new Ganma huffed
Kiba growled in anger, yelling at the Ganma as he charges in, swinging his blade before bringing out another one, trying to strike the Ganma as much as he could.
"The name, Excalibur sounds like a worthy item to steal and use its power." It mused.
"You won't even get the chance!" He growls, striking its chest.
"Oh? You have some fire in ya, don't you, Devil? I can sense hatred upon the name of the holy sword?" He noted. "Maybe Alan-sama would be pleased to learn about it so we can use its power to make an Eyecon of King Arthur."
"Wait… wha-" The Ganma grabbed his throat and lifted him up.
"You didn't know? The Excalibur holds the spirit of the great King Arthur! He will be a valuable asset to the Ganma order!" The Cross Ganma gloated. "Once we find it, Alan-sama will be pleased and we will have one of the three items of the Three Factions! Now, tell me, where lies the spear owned by Satan?"
"Heh, wish I could tell you that?" He chuckled, "But as a grunt, I don't know a thing…."
"Feh, then you are useless." The Cross Sword on its gauntlet glowed, making Yuuto's eyes widen upon the holy energy. One thing about Devils, they can't be near holy energy. "Prepare to die, Devil. Any last words?"
"Heads up, poser…." A quick kick sent the Ganma into some trees, crashing through them with ease as Koneko dropped to the ground, "Don't get distracted…." She warned him.
The Ganma got up as Koneko flinched upon seeing it has holy power. "You dare try to harm me, former Yokai? You are nothing!" He rushed towards the two as Koneko reeled her glove back and ready to hit but the Ganma moved aside and grabbed her arm and chucked her to Yuuto, sending the two away.
"This Ganma is tough…. I don't see how Cody can handle them…" Kiba groaned.
"Then may I join in?" What floated down to them was none other than Akeno as she smirked at the Ganma.
"A former Fallen? Who knew I would encounter another former being." he chuckled. "Let's see how you three can fare against me?" It lunged at them.
Issei followed the slightly injured Spirit as they were making their way to the ORC. "Quick, this way!" He pointed at the building that wasn't far from them. "Just go talk to that redhead and you might be given some safety."
"W-Wait up! I-I… I can't run that fast…" He panted, but i seconds, a spear flew by, piercing Issei through the chest as he got out his last breaths before dropping to the ground.
The Yurusen stopped where he was and floated to the kid. "Not again!" He exclaimed. He darted his head to the Fallen Angel then at Issei. He quickly reached in his cape for something until he pulled out two gloves. He puts them on and began to use all his might and pull Issei's body to the ORC. "Come on! We are almost at the ORC…" He said, pulling Issei's body. "HEY REDHEAD! I NEED A LITTLE HELP HERE!"
"As if anyone can help you…." Yuuma said, floating in front of the Spirit. She smirked, kicking the spirit away into a trashcan near by before turning her sights on Issei's body, "Now… for that Sacred Gear…." She grinned, reaching down to grab it.
However a gunshot hit her hand, making her reel back and hold her hand. She looked at the source to see Cody, yet oddly enough she saw the blue markings on his armor, along with the faceplate, glowing brightly in the dark and looked very angry.
"Step away from him…" He demanded coldly.
Yurusen popped out of the trashcan, spitting out an old can of soup. "Bleh," He spat in disgust. "Cody, try and hold her off! I'll go tell that redhead what happened!" He vanished in a puff of smoke.
"With pleasure…" He growled, tossing his weapon away as he began to walk over towards the Fallen Angel. "I'm going to enjoy tearing your feathers out, piece by piece…."
She gritted her teeth before tossing another spear at him to which he quickly avoided. Cody then brought out the GanGunSaber and rushed towards her. Seeing this, the Fallen Angel quickly threw more spears at him. He cut through them, or deflected them with ease. And upon reaching her, he threw his fist back, sparks and blue energy pouring out of it as he slammed it against her side, tossing her back away.
She cough from the punch as Yuuma looked at him. "You will pay for that!" She got up. "This isn't over, you hear me!" She vanished from his sights.
"I'll be here…." He spat, rushing towards Issei, "Come on… come on man, don't die on me!" He pleaded.
"Cody!" The said blonde turned his head as Yurusen finally brought Rias. "I already told her about him and that gear of his."
Rias knelt down to Issei, sensing that power. A smile curled her lips as she presented the whole set of Pawn pieces.
"You can save him…. Right, Rias?" Cody turned to her, his armor still glowing in anger.
"Yes I can," She confirmed, placing in all the Pawn Pieces.
"Wait, I thought it requires only one?"
"Cody, we are talking about a dragon in a Gear? You know how strong they are, right?"
"I-I see…." He nodded. "I… should've have done something earlier…."
"Hey, it is not your fault," Yurusen floated to Cody, patting his head. "Believe me, I have seen dear friends die in front of me… Yasaka-chan and her daughter were the people who helped me heal. If it wasn't for those two Yokai, I wouldn't be here now. Right now, be happy that he is saved and the ones to blame are the Ganma and that sadly bitch."
"I swear…. I will tear her wings out for doing this to him…." He growled in anger.
A magic circle appeared as they saw an injured Koneko, Akeno, and Yuuto as they fell. Rias quickly rushed over to them. "What happened!?"
"A Ganma… using… holy power…" Yuuto groaned.
"Too strong…" Koneko added.
"What kind?" Rias narrowed her eyes. "And what do you mean by a Ganma using holy power?"
"It must have been fused with a holy item. Yurusen said that any item can be attached to a Ganma," Cody intervened. "They must have fused a Ganma with a holy cross."
"They are also… attempting to find… Excalibur…" Yuuto muttered. "About King Arthur's soul in the item…"
"There's an Eyecon for Arthur?" Cody got out.
"Yep, didn't I tell you? All important figures' souls are put into an item, thus making an Eyecon." Yurusen reminded. "And King Arthur is one of the few."
"It would still be impossible for them to find his power…. The Excalibur sword was destroyed into several pieces…. Obtaining Arthur's soul is an impossible feat, since nobody truly knows where those pieces are at." Rias explained. "For right now, Cody. Please take them inside and treat their wounds. I have to keep going for Issei's sake."
Cody nodded, helping the others up and into the ORC as he helped them out with their wounds. "I'm… sorry I didn't tell you all this sooner….." He apologized.
"It is alright but next time, inform me or you will receive punishment." Rias said, walking back in with an unconscious but now alive Issei.
"W-What kind of punishment…?" Cody gulped.
"You will know if you make another mistake."
"Y-Yes ma'am… Sorry…" He bowed his head in apology, "I… thought I could handle her… Handle it with ease because of my new power…."
"Just remember, power isn't everything."
"Yes, ma'am…" He nodded.
"You did good Cody…." She said, causing him to look at her, "I understand that you feel invincible cause of the Eyecon. But don't forget, it's just a power… And if you don't try to know your limits, you will die…." Cody nodded as his head lowered, understanding the situation as he got up and made his way back home.
A/N: Alright! Issei is now part of the devil crew! ^^ Bit of a short chap, but this was made a bit earlier than when I started to grow more with detail in my works.
Not much to say of this for now, side that I hope you're all enjoying it?
Until then, later minna!
