Okay guys here you go with another chapter of Issei within the Freezing Universe, I'm sure he'll be fine, I mean he did train with Madara for like ten years and all right!
Please remember to review but no flaming
Chapter Four
Issei had found the events that day rather dull, though the use of Tsukuyomi seemed to be a little more draining that what he recalled it to be.
He had retired to his room, not before places a few seals upon his room, walls, floor ceiling and floor.
He did not put it past these Pandora to do so, their intent my vary but he cared not for their intent only their actions.
Issei had tried to find some solace in his sleep, he wondered if he would enter a memory of his.
To his dismay, it was not a memory he entered when he fell asleep.
Issei stood within a complete place of white, all was white, it was as if he was no longer in a plain of physical existence. Issei noticed that there was a woman in front of him.
She had long blonde he also noticed that she was neither wearing cloths nor was she naked.
Her eyes were not normal, there was a vertical slit down the centre of her eyes.
She said nothing just stared at him with a blank expression that made Issei rather insecure.
"What is it that you want of me?"
He called out to her, but the moment he said this she turned her back on him and began to walk away.
Issei did not care if she was not going to answer him, then she was not going to.
He noticed that as she walked she raised a hand as if calling for him to follow.
In return Issei slowly began to walk after her, not sure if there was any ground in this place.
To him it seemed as if she was descending a set of stairs.
Issei came to himself for a moment and was able to tell that this was no dream, it must have been a message but from who?
He continued to walk slowly after the woman who seemed rather content that Issei was not talking.
Truth be told he did not know what she felt her back was too him and her body was completely neutral.
As the came down to a certain point she was no longer descending but now walking straight again.
Issei did not know what to make of that, he too felt the steps and continued to follow her.
It was not that she turned to face him, Issei in turn halted and looked her straight in her eyes.
He did not know how or why but a name came to his lips one he had never heard before.
"Maria?" The woman gave him a slow nod as if to say that was her name.
Slowly she began to back away from him, Issei did not follow her.
As she was about to fade into the white behind her she finally spoke two words.
"Find me!"
Issei knew a command when he got one, this was one, he did not know why but he felt ever so slightly inclined to follow.
Issei felt the world around him fading, he knew what he had to do.
Issei slowly opened his eyes, it had not been but four hours since he had gone to bed.
"Dam it is only 11 o'clock, I would normally stay awake longer, but this world is too dull."
He got out of his bed, he had not bothered to get changed yet and slowly began to undo the seal upon his door.
Once he had done that he left the room, but made sure to take his bag with him.
He knew they must have some type of surveillance on him, but he knew that he could dupe it easily if he wished.
Right now he recalled that he was told to find someone.
"If I do recall she led me down a set of stairs, so I should try to find a way down under the academy."
Issei gave a short scowl, how did he know to do that, the thought was not his own, or at least not all of it was.
"Dam I need to be careful, something is meddling with my judgement."
He could not put his finger on what it was but it was messing with him for sure.
"No it is not that I feel I need to go underground it is as if I am being called there?"
He was right, he did feel as if he was being pulled, as if someone or something was calling him down.
"Here is that dam tricky bit, how the hell do I get down there."
As he recalled the Flying Thunder God technique only allowed him to pass to a location he had marked.
It was like one flaw that he had always planned for in the even of battle, but then again this was no battle.
"Great I will have to find a way to get down there, no doubt Gengo would know but can I afford to let him know that I was contacted by a blonde slit eyed woman?"
He knew the answer to that, he could not. "So I what, wander around aimlessly till I find her?"
He shook his head again "Am I looking for her?"
He again felt another's influence upon him, as if now it was willing to lead him to it.
He was wary of this presence, he could feel that it was more than human.
He began to walk around the still lit up corridors, he would pass every now and again a third year or above once in a while.
He did not know why but they did not ask him why he was
He slowly began to map out the entire complex in his mind.
"Well I will need to actually walk every no and again so I can get to know the place."
As he made his way to the outside Issei noted that he was making no head way.
"I could just try to blast my way down their, but then again, I don't wish to draw too much attention to myself."
It was to this point Issei got a little tired of wandering aimlessly, he knew that he had to find a way down to her or else the calling in his head would not stop.
To try to counter this he now sat down in the pathway in front of the entrance and began to meditate.
"If you are there, then guide me to you?"
Issei felt his body undergo some sort of movement he did not know what type it was.
To him it felt as if he was intangible, like he was slowly sinking through the earth itself.
Issei did not know what was happening but when he opened his eyes he was not outside.
No he could tell that he was in fact deep underground. Before him in large tube of liquid was a woman, the very same one he had seen in his dream.
Issei immediately bent down and marked the ground he was on, this way he could return here.
Her eyes were closed and she was naked, to many she could have just been a corpse.
Issei had could feel that she was alive his time with Madara had made him able to feel if a person was alive or dead.
He began to walk over to her, slowly and cautiously, he knew that a place like this had to have surveillance and that his presence was already know.
As he drew closer she opened her eyes, Issei stared right into them.
He could see who she was and what she had done, all things that had occurred during her time in the world above.
Issei took note that she gave of a similar vibe to Chiffon, only hers was greater.
Her eyes held a small amount of respect as well as gratitude, for what Issei did not know.
He was finally in front of the tube and put his hand gently on it.
His eyes locked with here for a whole minute, then something happened to him that he could not explain. It was if he was seeing what his enemy were, what they were called.
How they fought where they fought, when they came, how they came.
Who she was and what she was to many, how many believed that she had died in battle.
He even saw the one who knew she was still alive and that he had kept her secret.
At the end of the whole episode there was one thing she had left out, it was why.
Issei now slowly backed away from her, he had seen a lot, but for some reason he had also felt what she had felt.
Her name was now ringing inside his head "Maria Lancelot, Maria Lancelot."
She now closed her eyes, Issei had noticed that she was the exact same as the woman in his dream.
He now said her name out loud "Maria Lancelot, the mother of all Pandora?"
He shook his head, this was too much for one day, or rather something he would rather deal with later.
He recalled that a place like this had to have some type of security.
He knew that a place like this just had to have some camera's.
Issei at this point though could not be bothered to do anything cover his tracks.
Instead he used his Flying Thunder God technique to return him to the corridor outside his room.
From their he disabled the seal on the door and once inside enabled it and began to lay down on his bed again.
He knew that the at least someone must have been looking over the security footage, though he did not know when they would come fore him.
"Well what's done is done, you can't change that."
Issei said this as he turned over and fell asleep but not before he said.
"Unless you can use Izanagi."
Despite what he had done that woman's voice was in his head all it said though was "Protect my daughters."
A Secure Location in West Genetics
At that moment a very worried Gengo was looking through the footage of Ravensbourne Nucleotide.
He did not know if he should be outraged or afraid. At the time 23:23 there was no one in the room.
At the time 23:24, that boy was in there with her, looking at her.
He tried to replay the footage to see Issei's entrance, he could find none.
"Dam, why did I not try to do something."
He was not afraid that Issei would do something to here, no he could tell from the way Issei moved that he meant her no harm.
But now this made another person that now knew that Maria Lancelot was indeed alive.
Then it came to him, what if the boy had been called there. He did not want to admit it, but in a fight between him and her, he did not if she could come out on top.
He now replayed the footage of when she opened her eyes. He did not know what to make of it, it was as if she was acknowledging the boy in front of her as an ally.
He now noticed that Issei was moving and putting his hand upon her container.
Then it happened, no one else would be able to tell, but Gengo Aoi could.
She was sharing her memories with him, she was linking her mind with his.
Gengo felt the sting of envy in his soul as he did feel a tad envious that this boy came from another world was called upon by Maria herself.
Gengo now had to contemplate what course of action he was going to take.
Issei had proven his theory that. The one that he was a Wild Card, too wild a card to be in any players hand.
At this Gengo shook his head "No that's what we are not getting, Issei Hyoudou is not a Wild Card, no he is a player in his own right at this table."
Gengo knew all the cards in Chevalier's hand and that of his colleague.
None of them had any real wild cards to play, this meant any he did not have Issei did and now Issei knew one of his.
"It is a good thing I got to him about the alliance when I did otherwise I would be in a rather dangerous potion especially if Chevalier found out."
He shook his head again and said "Issei Hyoudou, a player with a hand of Wilds, to him, it is only how and when he plays them that matters."
Gengo came to his senses and realised he had said that out loud.
"It would seem that I am to walk on eggshells around Mr Hyoudou, no doubt he would have learned from her about me."
This to him was a new situation, normally he would like to keep others guessing.
But in this case he found that he was the one who had to guess.
He had already gone through the data he was able to collect of his fight with Chiffon Fairchild, he knew that he must have held back something.
"He does his best to put himself out there as a laid back and carefree person, but in truth he is rather cautious."
The way he had made his way towards Maria made that clear to him.
"He was able to fool myself to think he was a fool with too much power for a while."
He had to admit, the nature to which he took to class was the bare minimum.
He also heard news that he just simply looked at a Pandora and cause her mass trauma after classes.
Though there was no signs of any physical damage, her mind was basically broken.
Gengo knew that one wrong step on his account and it was possible for him to meet the same fate.
"All in all, he is not human by any standards, could he sent by God?"
Gengo dismissed this, Issei did not seem like a religious type.
At this moment Gengo turned and left the room he was in.
Muttering under his breath "Issei Hyoudou, what type of monster are you?"
The Next Day With Issei
Issei awoke to find that he no longer felt a pull on his mind.
"So all she did want was to show me what she knew."
At this point Issei checked the time, it was 9:00 am.
At this point he gave a sigh, he must have over slept due to his travels last night.
"Oh well a loss is a loss is a loss, wait how is this a loss."
He gave a shrug and made his way to the cafeteria.
Basically anyone who had a break was here now, though why they knew he did not was beyond him.
He stood in line and just pointed to the burger that he wanted. Upon receiving it he chewed it down slowly ignoring it's taste.
He noticed that Ticy had come to the cafeteria and was searching for something or perhaps it was someone franticly.
It was not his concern, he knew he could rock up late to class and shrug of any punishment he was given.
Not that he would not do it, he would do it rather too well.
It was only when he finished his food and was about to leave when Ticy bumped into him.
Well for a bump she tripped over something that was not there and was heading face first for his knee.
In turn Issei did step aside, although he did catch her by the collar before she it the ground.
"If this is how the worlds next generation of defenders go into battle kill me now and save me the embarrassment of being your classmate."
Issei said this in a complete monotone voice that would have made any one think he was serious.
"Psych" he said in an equally emotionless voice, as he put Ticy back on her feet.
"Dammit Hyoudou, I've been looking for you, we went and tried your room but we couldn't get in no matter what we tried."
Issei gave a dark chuckle and said "Phenyl, do you think I want anyone to be able to watch me as I sleep?"
She did not answer that instead she went on to say.
"I was tasked by our teacher to bring you into class, you are very late, it is already 9:20!"
To this Issei gave her a shrug, "I've been here for 15 minutes, 12 of which you were looking around for me while I sat in broad daylight."
Now she blushed a little, she did not know he had been her since before she arrived.
"How, how did you do that, I mean how did you hide in plain sight?"
To this Issei gave a small shrug and said "I don't know I believe it would be rather something special about you rather than me."
Ticy winced and then said "That remark hurt you know?"
To this Issei just gave another shrug and said "If that is how you see it, let that be it."
He now turned around and said "We are going to class or were you just making a fuss out in public so people would see us together?"
Now Issei knew that was pretty low, but then again he did not really cared.
"Are you always this much of an asshole in the morning?"
To this Issei calmly replied "There once was a mega douche by the name of Sasuke Uchiha, for reference he is not related to me."
"Since about the age of 12 or maybe even earlier he is the standard model for all douches to come."
"Madara raised me to be different from him, so that I could be playful yet stern, to be rude but not hateful."
He then took in a deep breath "I believe what Madara said was along the lines of, I don't wish to raise you to be a rude brat who only thinks about getting stronger and killing others."
Ticy had no words for him she just stared at him after what he had just said, in fact all who heard him did.
Issei in turn now turned around and said "I only kill those who try to harm or kill me, is there any wrong in that?"
Again she had no answer and Issei gave out a loud sigh "You know woman you really are confusing are you going to go to class with me or should I walk on ahead?"
Though it was a question, the real question was "Do you want me to return and make you look like a fool?"
It took about 30 seconds for her to realize this and come to.
Issei noted that she had come to and began to walk away, Ticy in turn ran up to walk beside him.
"You know that was not very nice."
To this Issei replied "Hey I did give you a chance, if I were a real ass I would have teleported to class and made you look the fool."
At these words she pouted slightly and then said "Yeah thanks for that by the way."
Issei gave another shrug, he knew before they could reach the classroom she was going to ask it.
And then it came the question he knew that she just had to ask.
"Um Hyoudou, why are you so late to class in any case?"
To this Issei casually said "I had a rather interesting dream last night about a blonde haired naked woman."
"I woke up and wandered around looking for here then went back to sleep after that."
At this she almost hit the ground when she asked "You're joking right?"
To this Issei gave her a sincere smile and said "Believe what you wish."
She had to scowl at him and then say "You know that is like your line, in your profile under your picture we should put that line."
Issei in turn gave a very loud sigh and said "Relax it was only a joke, what I said before."
In turn she smiled and said "You slept in didn't you?"
To this Issei could only say "Accuse me of accidentally skipping class, not ever, I do make sure that I control every action I take."
"Wow, do you have to be so dramatic?"
To this Issei gave a sigh and then said "Well looks like we're here, so what no handcuffs I could run away?"
She did not know if he was joking or if he was serious about that.
"You sure weren't kidding when you said playful, but they way she said it suggested that it was not the same as his."
"So even you think that way Phenyl?"
She shook her head "What no, I did not mean it like that."
In response to this Issei said "Don't fret, I was just messing with you or was I?"
With that they entered the class and Issei accepted what was going to happen.
Several Hours later within a Detention room
Issei had just completed all the work he missed, all the work that was within the book and all the write outs he had to do.
He now walked up to the teacher on duty and handed her the book she had given him.
"So how much have you done?"
She asked him this with a slight smile on his face.
To which Issei gave her one back in kind "Oh with a beauty such as you here, I did all of it."
She took the papers from him with only a slight blush in her cheeks.
"Oh we'll see about that then won't we Romeo, say if you have done it all and got it right I'll treat you to a date."
At this point Issei began to regret that he had done it all so well and said that line.
"Well shit me and my big mouth Madara would be saying I am reaping what I have sewn."
She was now reading all of it, he could see that she too regret that she had said that to him.
It took about ten minutes for her to go through it all but when she was done she was blushing rather madly.
"Well it seems um, you did get it all um, correct?"
To this Issei gave a shrug and said "Ms Kim, if that is all I will be leaving."
As he left he heard her give a sigh or relief, he in turn did gave one of his own.
As he left he thought "I should probably not toy with people too much, I don't want to get the reputation of a certain guy I beat up for a redhead."
It was at this moment that he saw at the end of the corridor was Chiffon wearing her smile as always.
"Oh great little miss squinting smiling, is here."
He knew that she must want something from him or rather of him.
"I see you're done with your little detention."
Issei gave a shrug and said "It was not much, more like, the only thing bad about it, is that you lose time."
She gave him a nod and said "That is one part of it, so you ready?"
Issei had no idea what she was talking about "Um ready for what?"
She gave him a rather playful laugh and said "For tea with the Elizabeth and her friends silly."
Issei did not know why, but that did not sound like he was going to enjoy it.
"Wait what, there is no way that I am going to sit down and have tea with you and a bunch of girls."
He said this with no trace of emotion in his voice so she could not pick up his rather annoyed mood.
"Yes you are, you agreed to repay me remember?" Issei really wanted to wipe her memory of that, though he did not wish to harm her too much.
He then felt the aura that was around Chiffon, it was slightly similar to the one he got from Maria?
"Could it be that she is the daughter, she spoke of, no wait she said daughters, she could be one of a few."
He thought this then decided to play along with her for now.
"Okay so when do we have to go to this tea party of yours?"
Chiffon still had her smile on and said "It is not my tea party, it's hers, I was invited to take one guest with me."
"What a drag, I mean with all those rumours around about me and her, things will only escalate from here, I could stop it, but that is too much effort for too little results."
Chiffon tilted her head and said "Does that not suit you, you could pay be back by becoming my limiter then?"
Issei gave a defeated sigh and said "Okay fine I will go with you, but you have to say we are only friends and sparring partners."
She gave a small giggle that could annoy even Madara "Oh, you take the fun out of it then, okay then let's go, by the way do you have a change of cloths?"
Extra Segment, what if scenrios
It took about ten minutes for her to go through it all but when she was done she was blushing rather madly.
"Well it seems um, you did get it all um, correct?"
Issei gave a rather seductive grin and said "Well Ms Kim, it seems that you and I will be going out, right here and now, so where do you want to go?"
She had never been in a situation like this before, she had never been on the back foot to a guy like this.
Issei caught her eyeing his body, "So Ms Kim do you like what you see?"
She tried to fight it, but there was something about him that made him desirable, she was just about to answer when a voice rang out.
"Yoowho, Hyoudou, I need you to help me with something."
Inside his head Issei cursed he enjoyed seeing his teacher get all red.
Ms Kim on the other hand was relieved "The Smiling monster to the rescue, thank god!"
So how was it did you like it, needless to say the Special Segment What if Scenarios are not cannon for this story nor go by the story personalities, call it SSWIS for short, don't know if I will do more, maybe if something funny comes up.
Okay that's it from me please review it helps me keep going and all, or rather a moral boost.
Thanks for reading JAGA03 out!
