WARNING: Before you read this chapter, please know that I had to revise the last chapter. After reading through it and watching the first episode of the High School DxD anime again, I felt that it would help build up the relationship between Tokugawa and the Gremory Team much better and to also build up the revelation of Tokugawa's origin and powers. So please read the last chapter again before you read this one. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Disclaimer: I do not own Godzilla or High School DxD!

Howdy everybody! First off, let me just say that I'm really glad that you guys are liking the story so far, but I also know that many of you might have a lot of questions about certain parts of the story, but please bear with me here because it will all be explained eventually. Besides, I like to have suspense in my story and not just flush out all the info out right off the bat, that would only spoil the tension. Further more, the additions that I added to the prologue will also play a role in the DxD world's views on Kaiju and the impact they left on their culture.

Also, because a lot of you have asked, I'll just go and spoil it. The 2014 Godzilla does exist in the universe and is the ancient ancestor of the Godzillasaurus race, making a connection between him and the two Godzilla's that were created by the Atomic Bombs. However, Godzilla 2014 sadly will not make a physical appearance, but will be referenced throughout the story. As for why he won't appear, that will be explained further down the line. The MUTO's might make an appearance, but we'll see.

Finally, to answer quite possibly the biggest question asked. There will be ecchi moments in this story, otherwise it wouldn't be High School DxD. However, it will probably be a few chapters before you guys get that, so please be patient.

Now then, let us continue.

P.S.- Please leave a comment and constructive criticism if you notice any spelling or other errors I may have missed, thank you.

Chapter 2: The Devil's Appearance

Rias and Akeno looked around shockingly at the scene after watching Raynare fly away from the area, leaving only the dying brunette and unconscious black-haired teen who had quite unfortunate to have been caught up in a rather unprecedented situation together. Neither of them predicted that the two boys would coincidentally whined up at the same location together.

After scanning the surroundings to make sure that the Fallen Angel was long gone, Rias knelt down beside the bleeding Issei who was close to death. She lifted her hand above the serious wound through his chest, evaluating the injury. She then outstretched her hand and formed a small magic circle. From it came the shapes of what looked like chess pieces, her remaining Evil Pieces. One Knight, Bishop, and Rook, as well as her eight unused Pawn pieces. Eyeing the boy on the ground and recalling everything she gathered on him from her observations, she mentally disregarded the Bishop. She began to debate between her other remaining pieces.

Rias selected six of her eight Pawn pieces and arranged them in a circle on his chest around his wound, but to her surprise, nothing happened. She then pulled out her remaining two Pawn pieces and added them to the arrangement. After placing them in sync with the others, she waited for them to react. Then, four of the Pawn pieces began to act strangely. Glowing with a fierce intensity, they seemed to splinter as cracks formed on their sides as a dark light shone through them. Almost immediately after that, as if reacting to them, the remaining four pieces began to glow as well, though they still remained intact.

As the pieces continued to pulse with light, Rias began to chant. "I order, in my name Rias Gremory. You, Issei Hyoudou. I resurrect you back to this soil as my servant, and have you reborn as a Devil. You, my Pawn, be delighted with your new life!" With that, the Pawn pieces pulsed one last time before sinking into his chest. With that, the contract was complete and their target had been achieved, with Issei being revived as a Devil.

With that finished, she glanced behind her where she saw Akeno tending to Tokugawa, who laid on the ground unconscious. She stood up and came to her side to help her check up on the other teen. "How's his condition? Any fatal injuries?"

"Actually..." Akeno's voice was low and she sounded like she was in shock. "He doesn't have any injuries at all."

"What?" Rias knelt down beside her and looked over as well. She saw that there was a hole in his T-shirt from where the light spear had impaled him, but there wasn't even a scratch to be found in the area. "How...is that possible? Self-regeneration?"

"Possibly. What do think we should do now?" her Queen asked as she glanced at her. "It's not like we can just leave him like this."

Rias pondered over it as she further examined the unconscious body on the ground. After coming to a conclusion, she once again summoned her remaining Evil Pieces before picking up the Rook and placing it on his chest.

The two waited for a reaction, but got none.

Surprised by this, the redhead took the Rook piece off and placed the Knight piece on instead, waiting to see if it would work this time.

Again, nothing.

"H-how is this possibe?" Rias questioned in disbelief. "His body is rejecting the Pieces. I didn't even know that was possible."

"What about the Bishop?" Akeno asked her. "Would that work?"

She shook her head. "Given everything that we've gathered about him, and also the fact that he rejected both the Knight and the Rook, I doubt it'll make a difference. But still..." She looked down at Tokugawa again. "I've never seen a human reject an Evil Piece before. I don't think even my brother would've experienced anything like it before."

"So what do we do with him now?" the Queen questioned as she looked down at the boy.

Rias tapped her chin in thought. What to do indeed. She looked back up and glanced around at the damage done to the park, observing the steaming trench that was carved into the stone that continued on through the dirt and grass, carving out a path of destruction through the park that didn't even spare any trees that were in the way.

She looked back down at Tokugawa, her eyes filled with curiosity. 'Just who or what are you, Tokugawa Serizawa?'

Tokugawa let out a groan and slowly cracked his eyes open, only to be met by a fierce light that stung his eyes. He slowly sat up and stretched his arms out with a grunt as he got rid of the kinks. He had quite possibly the weirdest dream last night, possibly more weird than the ones he usually got. All he could recall of it was walking into the park, feeling the strange dark presence, seeing a dead and dying boy lying on the ground and the Fallen Angel stabbing him in the chest.

...Wait a second.

His eyes instantly flashed open. The Fallen Angel! Tokugawa quickly sat up and looked down at his chest, but to his surprise, there was no injury. His shirt was still intact and there was practically zero evidence that he had been stabbed. Looking up to observe his surroundings, he noticed that he was still lying on the roof of the abandoned building that he was sleeping on last night.

Was it really just a dream?

He looked over his arms and took notice of strange sensation running through his body. He didn't feel anything particularly different about him, but something still felt strange. First of all, his senses felt like they had become much sharper than normal, and there was a strange feeling in his head that he couldn't quite explain. Looking up at the sky, he could already see the sun begin to rise over the horizon, indicating it was about early morning. Tokugawa rolled his shoulders to get the last few kinks out before he jumped down off the roof and walked in the direction town, still pondering on what exactly had happened last night.

'Was that really just a dream?' he thought to himself. 'Or was it...something else?'

An hour later:

Tokugawa grumbled under his breath as he walked down the street. Since it was still quite early in the morning, there weren't that many people out and about yet, which he found rather comforting. He felt quite tired from not getting enough sleep last night and the early wake-up and was craving a warm cup of coffee by now. In fact, that's where he was heading right now.

He walked around Kuoh until he finally came finally across a cafe and decided to get himself something to snap him free of his drowsiness. He walked inside and saw that it was still practically empty aside from about two or three other customers sitting around. He walked towards the front counter and asked for the strongest cup of coffee they had. He stood there patiently as he waited for his drink when he felt a presence behind him.

"Excuse me?" a feminine voice called out behind him.

Tokugawa turned around and saw a woman with a voluptuous figure around his own age standing there. She had long black hair that went to her legs that was tied in a long ponytail with an orange ribbon and had beautiful violet eyes. What caught his attention was that she was dressed in the same uniform as Ruruko Nimura from yesterday, although instead of the thigh-high green stripped stockings, she wore black, ankle-length socks.

The boy found himself simply staring at her, briefly captivated by her beauty before he was able to collect himself and spoke. "Yes, can I help you?"

"Are you feeling alright?" she asked as she looked over his drowsy appearance. "You're not looking so well."

"I'm fine, just tired is all. Didn't get much sleep is all." he explained as he waved his hand in dismissal.

The girl let out a cute giggle. "Ara ara, had some late-night fun last night have we?"

"Not in the way you'd think." he grumbled. He then looked over her uniform with curiosity. "That uniform, I'm guessing you go to Kuoh Academy?"

She raised her brow with interest. "That's right, but how did you know?"

"Helped out a girl yesterday who wore a similar uniform." he replied. "I think her name was Ruruko-san. She offered me a place in there, but I figured I'd think it over first."

"You must mean Ruruko Nimura of the Student Council. If that's the case, then perhaps you consider." She then bowed from her waist in a polite manner. "Oh, forgive me. I never introduced myself. My name's Akeno Himejima, I'm a third-year student at Kuoh Academy."

"Tokugawa Serizawa, the honor's all mine." He bowed back in a gentlemanly manner, making Akeno blush a little.

"Ara ara, such a gentleman." she mused playfully. "Well then, you wouldn't by any chance mind escorting such a delicate young lady to school today, would you?"

To say he was quite surprised by the sudden request was an understatement. He may have been socially challenged to a slight degree, but he was by no means stupid. Despite the way she stood perfectly straight up and at attention with her hands cupped in front of her, he could still vaguely see the faint blush on her face. He didn't know why she was blushing, but decided to just put it off as being a girl thing and to take it in stride.

"Well, I don't see any harm in that." he shrugged. After grabbing his coffee from the front counter, he followed Akeno out the door towards the direction of the school. After walking for about five minutes in silence, she suddenly slipped next to him and wrapped her arms around one of his own. Tokugawa was caught off guard by the sudden action, but he also began to feel slightly uncomfortable when he felt his arm slightly brush up against her clothed right breast.

There was another thing to mention about Tokugawa, that he wasn't like most teenage boys his age, meaning that he was by no means a pervert. Despite growing up alone and in solitude for most of his life, he was very much aware that most women were very self-conscious when it came to their bodies and knew it was right to respect their dignity. However, with the sensation he was feeling from his arm, he was slightly struggling to keep a neutral face, but only slightly.

After another few minutes, Akeno decided to try and make conversation. "So Tokugawa-kun, who gave you your name?"

"Pardon?"

"I've done research on the legendary Tokugawa Ieyasu for school, about the 'great unifier of Japan' who ended the era of Feudal Japan, so I know where it's from. I just want to know who named you after him. " She said that as she kept giving him that cute smile that would make any other male weak at the knees.

Deciding that it wouldn't hurt to make conversation, Tokugawa shrugged his shoulders. "My father grew up listening to those stories as a kid. He was the one who gave me his name. I guess he thought that naming after him would give me some sense of pride, though I didn't really care at the time, but sometimes I wonder why he made his last name my first name."

"I see..." she said as she kept smiling at him. He was starting to get a little creeped out by it, but there was something else about it. "Where exactly are you from?"

"I come from Fukuoka. I lived there with my family for the first six years of my life before I had to leave."

"Why did you leave?" Akeno inquired with curiosity. "What about your family?"

"They were all killed in a Kaiju attack. I had to leave and make it on my own ever since."

At that moment, Akeno felt a slight pang of regret for having asked that question. Her report on him never said anything about him loosing his family at such a young age, or that they were taken by a Kaiju. Also the fact that he was forced to take care of himself after that ever since, she was starting to feel some slight deja vu.

She looked back ahead with a sad frown. "Oh, I'm...I'm sorry to hear that."

"It's fine. I'm still trying to move on. It's just been a little hard." he replied as he kept a calm face, though there was a brief flicker of sadness in his eyes that the black-haired senior was able to pick up.

Hoping to help him ease his sadness, Akeno tightened her grip on his arm, which also made it brush up even closer to her breast. Tokugawa was once again conflicted by her actions. On one side, the feeling of his arm rubbing against her clothed bust felt nice and all, but the sudden close contact was also a little uncomfortable for him at the same time.

"Anyway," Akeno said as she tried to change the subject, "I think you take Ruruko up her offer. I'm sure you'll find Kuoh to be the perfect place for you to learn."

"Is it really?" he questioned with a raised eyebrow as he took a sip of his coffee. "I haven't attended another school since I was six. I'm not sure if I'll be able to fit in that well."

"Not true! I'm positive that you'll fit right in. And beside," Akeno leaned in a little closer and whispered into his ear, "if you ever do end up having trouble, I'd be more than happy to lend a hand." she breathed in a seductive tone.

Tokugawa just about choked on his drink at the way she said that last part. What the hell was that supposed to mean?! Or more appropriately, why would she say something like that to him?! They had just met! Was this something girls normally did? No, that wouldn't be right. It had to have been something else.

Once he was able to get his breathing in order, he looked at her while trying to keep a straight face. "That...would be greatly appreciated."

"Oh, good. I can't wait." She once again said that in a sultry way that made Tokugawa want to try to pry this woman off of him before anything else creepy happened.

He looked up ahead and noticed that they were both standing on a small stone bridge that led to a large metal gate. Beyond the gate, he could see a large building up ahead with several smaller structures laid out around it. He would be lying if he said that the architecture didn't impress him.

"Aww, looks like we're already here. I was hoping we could have some more fun." Akeno whined, though there was a hint of teasing in her voice.

Shaking away the awkward comment, Tokugawa turned to her. "Well, I guess this is where we part."

"I guess so. But I've gotta admit, you're a really fun person to be around." She giggled again in a cute manner.

'Fun? That's all she got out of our talk? All I did was talk about my depressing childhood and how I haven't been to school in a long time, and she calls that fun?' He was thoroughly confused by this girls logic. 'Just who is this woman?'

However, before he could openly say anything else to her, he felt a soft pair of lips lightly press against his cheek as Akeno gave him a light kiss. She pulled back and couldn't back a giggle at the dumbfounded expression Tokugawa gave her. It was too bad she didn't have a camera to record it. "It was really nice to meet you. Lets do this again sometime." She took a few steps towards the front gate before stopping and turning to face him with a seductive smile. "I'll see you around, Mr. Serizawa."

And with that, she turned and walked away, leaving the dumbstruck Tokugawa standing there watching her speechless. As she walked away, she placed a hand on her cheek as yet another faint blush appeared on her cheeks. 'I can't believe I just did that! But it actually felt kinda good. He's much more than I thought from what I gathered on my report.' She glanced back over her shoulder at Tokugawa one last time. 'Still, I gotta say, he's pretty cute.'

Tokugawa stood as still as a statue, his feet were practically glued to the ground. If a tumbleweed could be present in Kuoh, one would have been blowing by at the extended silence. After regaining his ability to think, the black-haired boy shook his head before turning around and walking back in the direction of town.

"...I don't think I'll ever understand women."

Meanwhile:

"Stop screwing with me guys. You seriously don't remember meeting Yumma-chan?"

Matsuda shook his head as he leaned back against the wall. "Nah dude. Names not ringing any bells."

"I'll say it again: You never introduced us to a chick and it's impossible that have a girlfriend." Motohama said as sat on one of the steps next to Issei.

"That doesn't make any sense! Her email address is right here!" Issei dug through his pocket and pulled his phone and opened it, but he noticed that her name wasn't it it. "No way... Her contact information isn't on my phone. What the hell?"

Suddenly, he felt a presence from the top of the stairs and looked up to see a woman with long crimson red hair standing there watching him.

"Yo, check it out." Matsuda commented.

Motohama noticed her as well. "Rias-senpai?"

Several girls also noticed her and were in awe at her presence. "She's so awesome."

"Not to mention gorgeous!"

Issei watched as she walked down the stairs and past them, but as she did, he could've sworn that he saw her glance at him with a smile before she disappeared down the stairs and around the corner.

Matsuda sighed a little. "Filing that image away for later."

"There's just something about her." Motohama said adjusting his glasses. "She's like a naughty red-headed Princess, you now?"

Issei was still trying to get over the strange feeling he got from the look she gave him. Matsuda came up and patted him on the shoulder. "Hey, maybe you've just been watching too much porn and it's making you crazy."

"I'm not crazy! I know what happened okay!" he retorted.

"Relax. Just come by my place after school today. We'll hang out and you'll get over it after we watch my treasured collection."

While Matsuda and Motohama were already discussing the plans for that night, Issei was looking off in the direction Rias had gone, the strange feeling still hanging over him. "So weird..."

Later that evening:

This day was by far the strangest for Tokugawa during his time in Kuoh. First with the strange dream from last night, then him waking up from said dream without any recollection of whether it was real or not, and finally that strange black-haired senior that was probably signaling him for God-knows what!

Tokugawa sighed and put a hand on his head as he felt another splitting headache coming on. Ever since last night, his body was acting strange. Aside from his abnormal strength and enhanced senses that he first gained after escaping that Hell-hole all those years ago, something else felt off to him.

Throughout the whole day, he kept getting strange feelings in his head that made him feel light headed and gave him a terrible headache every so often. And that was what he was currently going through right now.

After he stopped to grab his head for probably the twentieth time that day, he suddenly felt someone run into him. He stumbled backwards a little, but managed to keep himself on his feet. However, he could hear the other person fall on the ground with a thud and a painful grunt.

"Ow, dammit! Sorry dude."

"No, it's no problem. It was an-"

Tokugawa stopped dead and blinked. Issei blinked back in equal silence.

Then...

"YOU!" Both boys pointed at each other while shouting in unison. "YOUR THE GUY FROM-! STOP COPYING ME!"

After clearing the air a little, both boys stood before each other. It was Tokugawa who broke the silence. "You're the guy I ran into yesterday, aren't you?"

"Y-yeah, I was. I remember. My name's Issei Hyoudou."

"Tokugawa. Tokugawa Serizawa."

Another awkward silence came between the two.

"You know," Issei spoke up, "This is gonna sound weird, but I could've sworn I also saw you last night."

Tokugawa blinked with surprise. "Wait, I thought I saw you too, but you looked like you were dead. I thought it was a dream."

Issei's eyes went wide. "Wait! I remember! You showed up after Yumma-chan stabbed..." His voice trailed off as he seemed to have an epiphany. "Then...last night wasn't a dream? Did all of that really happen?"

Tokugawa's eyes also went wide. 'Wait, did he say "Yumma?" Could he be talking about that Fallen Angel? What was her name again? ...Right, Raynare. Still though, does this also mean that they really are here?' Seeing that Issei was still ranting on and on about what could've happened last night, he cut him off. "Hold on a second. If last night was real, then how the hell are you still alive?"

The brunette looked down at his hands. "I'm...not sure. I should be, but I'm still here." Both teens stood there in yet another brief silence before they both looked at each other similar thoughts.

"The park?"

"The park."

It only took about ten minutes for the two to make it to the park at the center of Kuoh. After realizing that the events that transpired last night might have actually happened, both teens practically bolted there, hoping to find some answers. By the time they arrived, the place was seemingly was deserted as night came down and replaced the twilight sky with starry darkness. Both teens stopped and settled for a moment as they started to look for clues relating to the dream.

Ever since Issei left Mastuda's house earlier that evening, he had been having strange experiences almost similar to what Tokugawa was going through. While his eye sight had also been enhanced, his vision had turned light red as the night air seemed brighter than the day. Night vision perhaps?

"Hey Tokugawa. Don't you think it's kinda brighter at night?" he asked. Tokugawa only looked at him and tilted his head in confusion at his question.

"What are you talking about? It's dark, alright. Can't you see it with your own eyes?" he replied with a puzzled look.

Issei was going to ask him another question, but decided not to since he was telling the truth. He turned towards the fountain and walked towards it before placing his hand on the edge. Tokugawa watched him and came to his side. "You alright?"

"I've been here before..." he said to himself. "This is where I took Yumma on our first date. It was real, it couldn't have been a dream. I remember ever single thing about it."

"What was it like?" Tokugawa asked him.

Issei stared at his reflection in the fountain. "It was like...I was finally becoming a man. Even if it was all really sudden when she asked me out, it felt so worth it. But in the end, I was an idiot to think that she would like me." He hung his head and sighed. "Who am I kidding, I'll always just be a stupid pervert."

Tokugawa blinked at that last word. "...A what?"

"I got to see her chest. My first time seeing boobs for the first time and the girl they belong to ends up trying to kill me a second after." he said with a downcast expression.

The black-haired teen just stared at him with shock that he had just said all of that with a straight face. He couldn't believe that he had said all of that without an inch of humor. He was being serious!

'This guy IS a pervert!'

Before he could verbally express his displeasure at his choice of words, he felt a sudden wave of discomfort wash over his head. He groaned and grabbed his head while Issei quickly helped him stay on his feet. "Hey, you alright?'

Tokugawa was about to reply when a strong aura forced him to freeze in place. His eyes widened, not because he felt it, but because he recognized it. He felt this aura before many years ago during his time in that pit, but also...just last night.

"W-what the hell is that?" Issei asked when he felt the same feeling wash over him.

His eyes narrowed into a piercing glare as he glanced behind them. "Fallen ones..."

"Well this really is unfortunate. Me running into you two that is. It must be my lucky day running into your kind in a place like this." a voice called out from the darkness on the edge of the fountain area. A mysterious man in a black fedora and dressed in a dark trench coat with a white dress shirt, a matching ascot, black hair and dark blue eyes stepped out of the shadows and slowly and casually approached the two with his hands in the pockets of his coat.

Issei was trembling in fear at the presence of the mystery man, but he didn't know what was making him tremble in the first place. Tokugawa on the other hand, suppressed his trembling and was glaring at the man in cold hatred. His slowly balled into fists as he faced him unflinchingly.

The man adjusted his hat to a proper position and glanced at the glaring teen with a smirk. "So you have a human companion with you. It's quite unfortunate that you got mixed up in this boy."

"What's he talking about?" Issei whispered.

"Issei, we need to get out of here. NOW!"

And with that, both teens were running in the other direction, leaving the man behind in seconds. But as they sprinted away from the scene, they noticed multiple black feathers begin to fall from the sky, making them look up to see the mysterious figure flying above them with matching colored wings and eventually landed in front of them as he cut off their escape.

"Such cowardice. I can't abide lower-class beings." he said in an unusual way while remaining composed.

Issei continued to tremble at the ominous feeling the man was giving off. "How the hell can this be real?"

Tokugawa stood beside him and continued to glare at the man. 'Just like from last night... There's no mistaking it this time, this is real. The Fallen Angels really are here.'

The man looked over the two. "So lets see... It appears as though your friends and master are no where to be found. You show no signs of disappearing nor any magic circles being deployed. Therefore, I will only assume that you are nothing but a Stray who's made a human companion, is that correct?" He reached out with his arm as a spear of light manifested in his hand.

Tokugawa's eyes widened as he glanced at Issei. 'Stray? Then that means... Oh no.'

"Then that means, killing you won't be a problem!" the hatted man brought his arm back and threw the spear towards the frightened brunette.

"ISSEI! FUCKING MOVE!" Tokugawa reached out with his right arm and caught the blade, though it seemed to pierce his arm with blood gushing out at a rapid rate. The teen managed to hold back his screams as he suppressed the pain with all his might as his body trembled.

The man looked on with both surprise and amusement. "Well, well. I'm impressed that a human like you can withstand such pain like that. If you were a Devil, the damage would've been enough to kill you instantly."

Issei was left in shock at seeing Tokugawa take the fall for him. The teen gritted his teeth to suppress the pain until the blade disappeared and then reappeared in the mans hand again.

Issei quickly came to his side and helped him stay on his feet while staring at the mysterious figure. "Who the hell are you?! Why are you trying to kill us?!" he demanded.

The man had to stifle a laugh before recomposing himself. "Why, you're asking? Because I can't stand low-class scum such as yourselves. Does that answer your question?" He raised his weapon as if preparing to attack again. "Now, I'm going to make you endure the worst pain that you'll ever experience in your pathetic lives."

Then, he was interrupted as he and Issei looked to see Tokugawa chuckling to himself, his black hair casting a shadow over his eyes. "Does something amuse you human?"

"The worst pain that I'll experience in my life? Hehe... Please, whatever pain you plan on dishing out on us, I doubt it'll ever be as bad as the pain I went through during those nine years I spent in that hell-hole." Tokugawa stood up straight and gently forced Issei's arms off of his shoulder and he faced the man as he raised his injured arm. "Compared to all that torture I went through...this feels like a love tap."

Suddenly, much to both Issei's and the mystery man's shock, the wound on his arm slowly began to close up until it completely disappeared as if nothing has happened, although the sleeve of his jacket was still ripped. He looked up and glared at the man, who left stunned at the sight.

"I don't know what you Fallen ones are doing here, and frankly I don't really care. But all I do know...is that you are going to pay dearly for everything that your kind has done!"

In a split second, Tokugawa's body suddenly became engulfed in a neon blue aura that cloaked his entire body while white static rippled along the edges, leaving Issei stunned at the sight.

"Wha...what is this? This radiant power...I've never felt anything like it." the man stammered in shock as he covered his eyes from the blinding light Tokugawa was giving off. Somehow this boy was able to not only heal himself on a deadly injury in a matter of seconds, but was now giving off an amazing power that was completely foreign to him. He was able to compose himself though and glared at Tokugawa, who had a neutral expression on his face.

"Don't get so full of yourself, kid!" He launched his spear of light towards him, but Tokugawa effortlessly swiped his arm and deflected it, which shocked both him and Issei as it landed a far distance away. "B-but that's impossible! How did you-?!"

"Everything you're kind did to me...all of the people you killed..." Tokugawa's eyes flashed white as he suddenly launched himself towards the assailant with blinding speeds. "I won't let you get away with any of it!"

Tokugawa punched the man across the face with a fist cloaked in blue light and white sparks as he tumbled away before recovering with wings. He placed his hand on his cheek which had a slight bruise from where he was punched before looking at him in anger.

"A filthy human...causing this kind of injury?! UNFORGIVABLE!" he shouted in rage before summoning a much larger spear of light and charging at him. He prepared to strike the teen, but Tokugawa jumped backwards just as the blade pierced the ground. The assailant flapped his black wings and flew after him and prepared to attack again until Tokugawa suddenly appeared behind him and delivered a solid kick to his back and causing him to crash face first into the hard ground.

Issei could only look on in both awe and helplessness at the incredible display before him. While it indeed looked like Tokugawa was already gaining the upper hand in the fight, he wasn't sure how long he would be able to keep it up for long. For all he knew, if they stuck around much longer, they would probably have a higher chance of being killed.

'Someone...! Anyone...! Help us please!'

Before the man could attack Tokugawa again, a black-red energy wave shot out of nowhere and destroyed the blade, leaving the man in surprise before he glared at Issei. "What did you just do you little shit?! And what the hell was that?" His last question was directed at the appearance of a red magic circle that appeared few meters away from Issei.

The red glow it gave off made it hard for them to see clearly until suddenly, a person appeared from the center of the circle. Issei's eyes widened when he recognized the person due to her crimson red hair.

"Keep your hands off of them." she said in a firm tone towards the assailant.

"R-Rias-senpai?" Issei stammered in realization.

Tokugawa stared at her while his neon blue aura was till active. 'Who is this?'

"I'll teach you not to meddle where you don't belong!" the man shouted as he launched his light spear towards her. However, it was suddenly deflected by once more by another girl slightly shorter than Issei with shoulder-length white hair and wore a uniform similar to Rias. Issei immediately recognized her as none other than Kuoh Academy's school mascot.

"Koneko Toujou?!"

The assailant retrieved his light spear before charging for one last assault. "I'm done with you!" Then, a giant bolt of lightning struck the ground in front of him and generated an explosion that sent him flying back as another girl revealed herself to the group, one who Tokugawa recognized.

"Akeno-san?"

The man was blown back before he recovered easily yet again, glaring at the trio of girls in front of him while seething with rage. "Damn you, Devils!" But before he could even take a single step to attack them, a light caught his attention and he turned around in shock to see Tokugawa appear behind him. The teen clasped his hands together and raised them high above his head while the blue light and white static surrounding his fists flared and swung them downwards, striking the man in the back of the neck with devastating force, while Rias and the others looked on in shock at the sight.

"Atomic Underjaw!" A large explosion of blue light and white sparks followed as the assailant was slammed into the ground in a small crater. The man groaned and struggled to get up before glancing up at Tokugawa who continued to glare down at him while blue and white light flickered from his being as his neon blue aura began to die down.

The assailant got to his feet and jumped away to get some distance from the teen, his body trembling in both rage and slight fright. "That's the second time you've injured me, you damn lowly human-!"

"Do you still plan on fighting?" Rias interrupted him, prompting all eyes to turn towards her as the man recompose himself before he too began to recognize the woman.

"That hair... You're from the House of Gremory, aren't you." he guessed.

A smile crept it's way on to Rias' before moving into unto a greeting gesture. "My name's Rias Gremory. And who are you, other than a Fallen Angel?"

"Fallen Angel?!" Issei spoke in shock.

The man chuckled as he dusted of his fedora, which had been knocked off his head from when Tokugawa attacked him. "Well, well. Who knew? This town is currently under the control of the next head of the great Gremory family." He then glanced towards Issei. "So he's a part of your household, I take it?"

"Yes. And if you bring any harm to him, you will get no mercy from me." she warned as she kept her smile.

Tokugawa glanced between Issei and the man with confusion. 'Servant? What on earth are they-' His eyes widened with realization as his gaze was fixed on Issei. '...Oh.'

The man placed his hat back on his head and turned to face said teen. "Well, I guess that boy did the most punishment. Still though, I never expected him to be strong or capable of facing Fallen Angels on his own. I take it he's also one of your's?"

"He is quite a strange one indeed. And yes, he also just-so-happens to be under the Gremory families protection as well." Rias explained.

The assailant nodded in understanding. "I apologize for the misunderstanding. Though it's unwise to let your servants run loose like this. The next time their out for a stroll, they might run into someone less cordial than myself."

"I appreciate the friendly advice. Bear in mind that if anything like this happens again, I'll make you regret the day you crossed paths with the House of Gremory, my friend." Through her smile, Issei saw the killing intent in her eyes and shivered at the sight. Tokugawa was more or less unaffected by it, but he too had to admit that it was slightly unnerving.

The man dipped his hat in acceptance. "No offense to your noble household, but you should bear in mind that the same thing could be said for you." He then flapped his wings and took off into the sky before disappearing. "My name is Dohnaseek. I pray that you and I never again cross paths."

As soon as he finished saying that, the dark barrier that surrounded the park vanished and Issei breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that the battle was finally over, though now a mountain of questions was piling up in his head after witnessing something like that for a second time in two nights.

"Glad that's finally over." he breathed with relief. However, he looked over to his right and saw that Tokugawa was still staring off in the direction where Dohnaseek had vanished with a cautious look. "Hey, you alright man?"

"No, I'm not alright." he replied bluntly as he kept his gaze fixed at the sky. "Even after all this time, they still continue to haunt me no matter where I go..."

After getting those thoughts out of his head, he helped Issei up to his feet before directing their attention to the three girls with slight caution, the former more so than the latter.

After a brief silence between the two groups, it Rias who broke it with a smile. "Well, it's very nice to finally meet you Issei-kun, Tokugawa-kun-"

"Before we get to all that," Tokugawa cut her off as he raised his hand, "Would you mind explaining on what the hell is going on here?"

And that's a rap for chapter 2! Hope you all enjoyed it! Also just as a quick heads up, there will be music in this story just like with Godzilla: Rulers of Earthland, but they will NOT be exclusive to just the Godzilla and High School DxD soundtracks. I will be including music from other sources such as Fairy Tail or others, just to try and keep it diverse.

Anyway, hope you all enjoyed this chapter and I will see you all next time!
