The Gremory's Unique Devil

by makoto x chelia

Never once did he think that a simple date with a girl in his class would end up as murder, but it did. Fate? Destiny? Those things that happened for a reason, and now they had happened to him. The boy that was lonely, suddenly finds himself in a new heap of adventures, and is sure to discover many things along the way about himself. His name, Takato Miyamoto, and this is his story

4. It's a complicated life

Hello, and welcome to the next chapter!

SomeDudeThatReads; I have to admit that it is a little fun for me to write up some different scenarios, I haven't decided about Raynare yet, but it could be fun. And yeah, it could do~

weslyschraepen; You'll have to wait and see, it's a spoiler. As I said in the last chapters AN, I plan to on another story.

pushkars188; Thanks, and yeah, I have~

Crenin; That's how Raynare sees it anyway, Takato's going along with it for now for, various reasons. Hehe, that would be funny. I'm glad that she makes you laugh~ And thanks very much!

LoamyCoffee; She does yeah, mentally, physically~

hellspam; I'm glad you did! Ooh she will do eventually~ It would be funny to see Koneko's reaction.

Warzone8x8; Thanks very much! Yeah, it is going to be fun to see the use of his Sacred Gear's~

Nivek Beldo; Hehe, Raynare's got a lot of feelings she needs to work though, I think that's a good way to put it. Yeah, he's going to offer her some support, willingly, unwillingly, Takato is a kind person and if someone needs help, even the enemy to a degree, though if the enemy is irredeemable, then that's a different story. She is yeah, we'll be seeing more of her. He sure does, he's gone through more than enough, and it isn't over yet. Koneko did offer some good advice, didn't she?

Silver crow; Indeed, a new chapter! It is yeah, but he'll get it, and we'll even see a backstory about it as well, I've got it all planned out for how he's going to get it, and other things as well. Those other two gear's are quite useful and Takato's gonna use them in interesting ways as well. Yeah, that would be cool, or maybe mixing it with the Dragon auras that he'll be naturally obtaining through contact with Vali and Ise, among other things. He's not going to get Balance Breaker just yet, he's only just awakened his Sacred Gear's. And yeah, you never know~ All I can say right now is Incinerate Anthem and Takato have, some connection. Yeah, I don't see why not~ That sounds good~ That would be a fitting name~ Hehe, with Night Reflection, it is possible. I'm glad that you liked it between them~ We'll be getting a few more bonding moments here while moving the story along as well. Yeah, he did rather good as well, since he truly is a newbie and keeps getting attack. I'm happy you did~ They surely do know him through her. Well, you never know, he could have~ Hehe, that would be funny~ I'm glad you liked their moments! Basically yeah, he'll be a tricks and skills kind of guy, instead of someone who heads right into battle. Though, sometimes that's unavoidable so he'll be kicking some ass now and again. Yeah, it is rather interesting, that's why I thought it would be for the best. That would be cool, I can say that Irina, Xenovia and Asia are going to be in that harem definitely. Maybe he could do yeah~ I can say he'll know Vasco yes. He wouldn't need Durandal, for the Longinus he'll have. That sounds cool to me, I like it~ Irina could have something like that, Xenovia could have that and Lint does get that yeah~ Maybe she could be yeah, it would be rather interesting~ And yeah, he could be one of those, Loup could be yeah~ I think he probably would be prideful, and yeah, there is a difference between pride, and arrogance. Could do yeah~ It would be funny~ I don't see why not, they'd be interesting pieces~ Maybe they could yeah~ Yeah, I don't see why not. He very well could have those things yeah~ Hehe, Rias surely would enjoy that~

SomeDudeThatReads; He's not going to be the type that wishes to overwhelm his enemies, he'll use tactics. Though sometimes when the situation calls for it, he can use his powers to bring the pain. Night Reflection can make shadow monsters, it isn't like Annihilation Maker, but, I am going to put a unique spin on it when he gets there.

kynan99; And thank you for the nice review~ And thanks again!

OechsnerC; Thanks very much!

ShadowUzumaki55; Thanks very much! He surely has yeah, he's gonna have a break here, he's not going to be totally attacked, but this will do some character building and a little more in deapth look into Takato. Hehe, I am glad that you liked it, it's a fun little joke to have in there~ Hehe, Raynare and Takato, they are gonna have a rather interesting life together. She's gonna be someone who is somewhat important to Takato's past, though he seems to have no memory of her. Yeah, he's got them, and he'll keep them for a little while.

Guest 1; Yeah, I could see them do something like that. Yeah, I could see that, the Heavenly Dragon's definitely will be important to Takato, and vice versa. Yeah maybe she could yeah, though she's Takato's as well so that could be an interesting dynamic between them.

borbos; He'll have Incinerate Anthem eventually~

Guest 2; That sounds pretty cool to me!

Neonlight01; Yeah, it seems both sides are having it bad. Hehe, Raynare seems to need some therapy from Takato, we'll see a bit more of that here. He is yeah, he's coming to terms with it all though in a very rough way and seeing what his life was like. They surely did yeah, and indeed, seems like Takato is going to have a hard time dealing with a few people. And yeah we did~ Yeah, similar circumstances, but some different reasons as to why. They have yeah, and Night Reflection is a very versatile Sacred Gear, and can be used in various ways, the same with Trick Vanish and as we go forward, we'll see Takato use them in inventive ways. Cool suggestions!

tyson113; Thanks! And yeah, I'm glad your dru...chapter fix has been done~ Here's another~

Anime PJ; Cool! Hehe, for shame lol~ Hope you had a good holiday~ Was it? I'm glad you're enjoying it then! Thanks! Yeah, he's a cross between them, in normal situations, he's quite shy, but when he needs to be, he can become a badass with an indomitable will, as we'll see in future chapters. Hehe, it is going to appear for a little while at least~ How did you know I was going to have her do that? Well, I am eventually~ And thank you!

KobayashiSenpai; It surely is going to be fun! The combos alone are gonna be rather interesting~ Hehe, it's going to be rather sweet I'd say~ I'm glad, Isane is quite the pervy yet lovable girl~ And thanks very much!

DragoNath1512; I shall be doing that in a future fic~

Ragna; The milf's then it seems~? Yeah, perhaps. I have read it yeah, and from what I've read, it seems enjoyable. I can't form a proper opinion until there's been a fair few chapters and some sort of problem to be solved, and what not. But yeah, I hope the manga does well, I liked Fairy Tail for what it was, it had a few problems, but nothing is perfect.

Primevere; Thanks very much! Glad that you liked it!

Lightwave; He surely does yeah~ Little by little, they are becoming quite, friendly with one another. And yeah, he has a few reasons as to why, it shall be shown in the future. Ise is seemingly having it easier than Takato, but she's going to be going through a few things in the upcoming chapters. Hehe, Raynare and Takato, they have quite the weird, relationship I'd say. And we did yeah, we might see another one here now~ Indeed, he's going to be using them in interesting ways.

Tohka123; Thanks very much! He surely did yeah, and we've got some more coming here~ Yeah, he's been through a lot already and he'll go through more as well~ And thanks!

Well, with those lovely reviews out of the way, it is time to start the chapter!

It's a complicated life

"I want to have my Sacred Gear unlocked!"

Takato said it with a strong face.

After everything that went down and a few days before the young nun arrived, he was tired of not being able to fight on par with these people. Sure, his quick wit managed to help him in certain situations, but he needed assistance now. He needed to know what his powers were.

As a Devil, surely he would have some kind of power, right?

He didn't care what it took, what it would take for him to become stronger.

All he needed was access to every power that he had inside of him. His demonic powers, and his Sacred Gear as well. This is what he wanted, and he needed it now.

"Yes, I had heard about what happened in the park. Clearly the Fallen Angels have something against you-"

"Yeah I know that, that's why I need to know my powers. This Sacred Gear, I could have been killed by the people with swords, and the Fallen Angel and whatever else is out there! Especially that Witch bitch!"

"Witch? What Witch?"

"I don't know...she seemed to know my name and it seemed like she hated me but why, I don't know..." Takato hummed at the words, then shook his head, and continued on. "I want to know my powers Gremory-senpai and I need them now! I need to be prepared, you have to give me something that can help me defend myself if you guys aren't around. Like before, while I am grateful to Koneko-chan for fighting off the Fallen Angels, I am not someone who can just sit around and do nothing while my comrades are all getting into scuffles all over the place. Especially if it is because of me in the first place. It is too much for someone like me, understand?"

He was frustrated.

Because of what happened to the Exorcist, what he had to do, he had to do something to make himself feel better, to make himself stronger. He didn't want anything ever happen again to the people that he cared for, and of course, himself as well.

Rias rose a hand to her chin as Ise and Yumi came inside, finishing off the leaflets. They sat down and watched as Akeno gave a curious face, and could understand why he was like this. All his Devil life, he kept getting targeted, and it wasn't a life she would want to have.

"Well, you aren't wrong, and yes, we will awaken your Sacred Gear right now. And again, I am sorry that you got attacked."

"Wait, Takato got attacked!?"

Ise panicked from behind, but Takato turned and offered the girl a smile.

"Don't worry Ise-san, I am okay."

"A-Are you sure? I mean, you've got cuts on you and what not and burns..."

Takato waved his hand at her.

"Truly, I am okay, don't worry about me. It was a thing, I dealt with it, and now I'm okay."

Ise wasn't sure, and she looked troubled on what to do next.

But, Takato turned back to Rias, and she looked towards him with a small smile.

"Alright, Takato. We'll soon see what is inside of you. First of all, I want you to close your eyes, while rising your hand."

"Why?"

"Because that's the requirement, it is what you want, isn't it?"

Takato grumbled, and nodded his head.

He raised his hand and closed his eyes.

"Good, now imagine the strongest thing you can. It can be anime characters, it can be anything that you'd want to imagine it to be. But as long as it is the strongest image in your head, then the Sacred Gear will appear more easier."

Takato nodded, and thought about the strongest person that he knew.

He didn't reveal who it was, but he understood who the strongest person was, and he never would say anyone is stronger than her.

"Now, mimic that persons special pose."

"They don't have a special pose."

Takato argued, Rias twitched her eyebrow.

"W-What?"

"I said that person doesn't have a special pose."

"Why? Who are you imagining exactly?"

"Just someone important to me is all. And they don't have a pose, so how am I meant to do it exactly?"

Rias put a hand to her forehead, and thought about what would be the next course of action.

"This is difficult...well, it can't be helped. I suppose that this is what has to happen. Okay, then, just imagine that person. How they were, how they acted. What it was that this person did to give you some strength."

"Okay, I can do that."

Takato said it quickly, and did what she said.

Imagining his important person, how they acted, how they smiled, how they laughed, how they always made him feel so safe, and secure, how he always knew that even with badness, it was going to be okay….

Suddenly, as he did, Takato felt something enter his hand. He couldn't get a truly good feel of it. He didn't know what it was. It didn't feel like metal, or wood. It felt, almost like it was a mix between metal and something else. What the others didn't see was wisps of shadows that danced by his feet barely noticeably.

"My, it seems to have appeared~"

Akeno giggled out, Takato became happy.

"My! It is going to be the power to make any sword I want? Is it going to be where I can unleash the powers of the Heaven's with my elemental powers? Is it where I could sap my enemies strength and add it to myself!? Or can I like summon the souls of the dead and resurrect the dead! Maybe I could like, become a massive flame thrower of awesome flames! Ooh, maybe I can make like monsters, or demons or something! The possibilities are endless..." Takato became more and more happy with the prospects. His eyes opened, and looked to the staff in his hand. "What's this shit?"

Ise snorted, while Yumi chuckled out awkwardly.

Koneko half closed her eyes, wondering the same thing.

"Well, that's your Sacred Gear."

Rias announced happily.

But for Takato, he just didn't get what it would be for. What could the staff do? Raise magical powers? It surely did look like it was for magic.

"A funky staff? What does it do?"

Takato looked at the staff once more, and swung it around. It didn't have anything to suggest what it could be. It didn't have any marking's on it. It did look fancy, he could say that for certain. But beyond that, he didn't know what it could be.

"Well...I don't know."

"What do you mean you don't know!?"

Takato yelled at Rias who held a hand to her face.

"I said, I don't know. I'm not an encyclopedia on Sacred Gear's you know? It looks interesting and there's no mistaken that it is a Sacred Gear. But what it does, I actually don't know. I'll have to research it for you."

"Great...so, I summon a Sacred Gear, and have no idea what the hell it does...I'm back to square one here."

He didn't even know what to do with it. The Sacred Gear wasn't something that he would even be able to use properly. If it had any special powers, he didn't know. And now, he was almost depressed. Unless it turned out to have an amazing amount of powers that he didn't know about at all.

He looks towards Rias, and bonk's her on the head with the staff.

"Owwwww. What was that for?"

Rias whined out, Takato snickering as did Akeno.

"Well, at least it seems to be sturdy enough, a swinging weapon might be good."

"W-Well, don't use me as someone you hit next time. Aim for the Fallen Angels or something."

Rias complained, but Takato showed a small little smile.

"Oh, I'm sorry Buchou." Somehow, she didn't believe he was sorry. "Well, I've got my Sacred Gear, I'm going home now to look at my staff for a while."

"I'll look at your shaft for a while Takato..."

Isane grinned out, Takato turned to her with a weird expression.

"Staff, not shaft Ise-san."

Takato told her straight, Ise showed a small pout on her lips that Takato actually found to be super adorable. But he wouldn't admit that.

"Yes, Hyoudou-san, please don't make such comments towards Takato-kun."

Yumi butted in, Ise showed a less than stellar smile.

"Tch, you are only jealous that I can do things with Takato, that you'll never be able to do."

"W-What?"

Yumi seemed to genuinely not know what she was talking about.

Rias sighed slightly, and then continued on.

"Either way, while Takato is their target, you can't be left alone." Takato still didn't know when he said she could call him by his first name, but by now, he didn't have the energy to argue. "For now, Takato. You're going to have to have escorts around you."

"Well, I guess that's fine. I don't want to keep dying and Koneko-chan did save my hide back there with taking on that Fallen Angel. If she hadn't been there, I would be dead right now. All three of them, I don't even want to think about it."

Koneko looked to be okay with what he said, and then Rias looked between everyone around.

"Yes, that's why it is imperative that someone stay with you at all times. So for this, does anyone want to-"

"I'll do it!"

"-besides Ise want to volunteer to stay with Takato for this night?"

"Wait! Why not me!? That's not fair!"

"Because you can't defend yourself yet. It would be counterproductive to have two people in the same place, it would be easy picking's for the Fallen Angels to come and take you two at the same time and end your lives."

"So, someone's going to be living with me?"

Takato didn't know if he liked that idea.

He had been alone for so long now, did he want to share his place with someone again?

"That's the gist of it yes. Who would you like to live with you? Akeno? Yumi? Koneko? Or, would you prefer myself?"

"E-Eh, I don't know, I'm not sure it would be right for a boy and a girl to live together, due to what keeps happening around me with some women that strip off regardless of if I am there or not."

"That was a dig at me, wasn't it?"

Rias deadpanned, Takato nodding his head.

"Yes, it totally was."

Rias chuckled awkwardly, and turned her head to the side.

"Well, I am just comfortable with such things. Either way, who wants to stay with Takato?" Yumi raised her hand. "Oh, okay, Yumi. Then you'll-"

"No way!" Ise growled, and put herself between Takato and Yumi. "Buchou, I have to reject this! She'll definitely, try something! She is the type of person who would do something like that! I can't have it happen Buchou! I strongly object!"

Rias gave a light titter as Yumi looked uncomfortable.

"Ooh Ise, you've got a hyper imagination. Don't worry, it is going to be fine."

"I don't know…."

Ise truly was against this, he didn't want anything bad to happen to Takato, and when she means that, she truly means she didn't want Yumi to take Takato all for herself away from her, as she knew Yumi was pretty, and if she could, then she might and that would devastate the young girl.

"Either way, this is what we have at present. Don't worry Ise, I'll make sure you and your parents are safe as well."

Ise nodded, as Yumi walked over to Takato, and got beside him.

"T-Then, Takato-kun, shall we go back to your place?"

"Damn you Kiba!"

Ise yelled as Yumi wrapped her arms around his own shyly. He developed a shy face as well, feeling her large bust pushing against his arm, and her cute innocent yet sensual expressions. Different from Rias, Yumi had a beauty that was in the cute category, and it was adorable all the same.

"Y-Yeah, should we go back to yours to pick up some thing's?"

"Y-Yes, that would be good." Yumi turned to the others, and bowed her head. "Goodbye."

"Yeah, bye everyone."

Takato squeaked out, walking away with Yumi.

Ise was frustrated, and hated that this is what happened.

"Why Buchou? Why did you do this!? That bitch is going to take his virginity and I wont! That's what it is to be the Queen of a harem you know!? The first of everything!"

Rias didn't know what to say, and just looked to the side curiously, and with some fear as well.

---

When Takato and Yumi got back to his place, he felt weird. He felt tense at the thought of sharing a place with Yumi. Unlike Rias, who he could get over because he didn't know her that well. Yumi was different. Since he did know her, and if they did something, then it would be rather hard.

"H-Here Kiba-san. Please come inside."

"Thank you, Takato-kun. How about I make some food for us?"

"Aah, you're my guest, I'll do it."

Yumi waved her hand.

"It's the least I can do, Takato-kun. If it wasn't for the whole Devil thing, then you wouldn't have to worry about things like this. And it isn't like this is your fault either. To be attacked constantly, don't worry Takato-kun, I'll protect you."

"Heeeeeh, thanks Kiba-san. I'm going to go for a shower then."

"N-Naked?"

She gulped for some reason unknown to Takato.

"Well, unless I have to shower with clothes on, then yeah."

Yumi gulped once more, and her eyes ran down his body. She imagined water running down his body. The naked Takato. She wasn't like Isane, who would imagine Takato naked most of the time. But for this instance, she and he were alone together. The body of Takato, she had caught herself looking once or twice before.

But now that they truly were alone…

"Kiba-san, you're staring at me oddly, is something wrong?"

"N-No! Of course not!" Yumi lied, turning her head sideways. "S-So, have a shower, bath, whichever, and when you're ready, please come out and we'll have a meal between us." Her eyes fluttered as Takato gave her a weird look. "I'm not Hyoudou-san, I wont look."

"Hehe, Kiba-san, you're funny~ Don't worry, I know. And I am sorry for Ise-san's weirdness with you. She has it in her head that you're so much prettier than she is and probably thinks you're stuck up or something. I suppose if she was a guy, she'd think the same of me or something because in some ways, we're similar, right?"

Yumi chuckled light heartedly, blushing slightly.

"Y-Yes, I would have thought so as well Takato-kun."

"Then, I'll go for a shower."

Takato smiled, and walked off. Yumi watched him walk away and focused on his back, and ran her eyes down...but caught herself before she could continue, turning her head, shaking her head, muttering "I'm not Hyoudou-san." before she went to make a meal.

---

That evening, after everything was said and done, with both Takato and Yumi dressed for bed.

Since Takato went to bed with nothing but his underwear on, and Yumi wore a surprisingly revealing negligee, he didn't know if that would even be comfortable, but he couldn't look at her because of it. The way that it barely covered anything, even the breasts could be seen at certain points. The shape definitely could be made out, and the hot pink panties as well. It was something that for the teenage boy of Takato, it was a rather wonderful yet, worrying experience as he didn't want to be accuse of being a pervert.

"Then, you can stay here in the bed Kiba-san, since I don't have another bedroom here, or another bed. I'll sleep on the couch."

"That wouldn't be fair. Me kicking you out of your bed."

Takato waved his hand.

"It's okay, I'm a man as well, so I have to do everything to make a girl feel comfortable."

Yumi's face turned a deeper crimson than before.

"T-That's sweet Takato-kun...but, even then..."

"It's fine, really. I'm going to set up the couch..."

As Takato was going to leave, Yumi's hand slipped into his own. She pulled him back, and looked into his eyes shyly. Matching that shyness, Takato's eyes averted themselves from her form.

"You can stay with me."

"E-Eh?"

"I said, you can stay with me. We've been friends for a while now, it is okay, I can trust you...besides, you slept in the same bed as Hyoudou-san, so it should be fine with me as well, right?"

Takato gave her a curious look, sensing that there was a deeper meaning to what she was saying.

"Kiba-san, are you jealous of my friendship with Ise-san?"

"J-Jealous?" She denied the accusation. "N-No, I wouldn't do that! I wouldn't be jealous of her, or anything, and how quick she became close to you or anything…."

Takato knew better, and moved closer, touching the young girls face with his finger, poking her cheek. She looked even more shy as he did that, but he didn't mind as he found it very adorable.

"I think you are Kiba-san. Tell me, why are you jealous?"

"...It's because you call her 'Ise-san' and you only call me by my last name."

"O-Oh, that's what is worrying you? I didn't even consider that you'd want to be called by your first name."

"Well, it isn't super important, I just thought that we could move to that level. While Hyoudou-san tries to pull ahead anyway. I can't have that, I don't want to lose my Takato-kun to Hyoudou-san who is too perverted."

Takato couldn't deny that the face Yumi was making was adorable. Her cheeks were puffed out, and she was showing signs of jealousy. Though it seemed more than mere friendship honestly, but he didn't even know what it was about.

"S-So, I'm 'your Takato-kun' huh? What is it with people laying claims on me?"

"...I could be yours..."

"Hmmm? Did you say something Kiba-san?"

Yumi shook her head, glad that he didn't hear that.

"No, nothing. Anyway...you could call me Yumi if you'd like? Yumi-chan would be good, as well."

Takato brushed a lock out of Yumi's face, and showcased her adorable expression.

"Yumi-chan, is that good?"

Yumi's expression turned into a state of happiness.

"Yes! That would be good! Now, lets go to bed, okay? Since we're friends, it should be fine, right?"

"Well, I can trust you a lot more than Ise-san anyway while like this Ki...eeh, Yumi-chan."

Yumi adopted a smile, dragging Takato to the bed. Making it, she shyly pushed him onto the bed, where he sat up in said bed. Yumi then got into the bed as well, and moved closer. The pair displayed a shy awkwardness around the other, but Yumi became bolder and decided to rest her head on his shoulder, while her arms draped across his chest.

His cheeks turned even more red, feeling her body curling up to his. He hadn't thought about it until now, but Yumi truly was a cute girl. No, rather, he had noticed she was. But from the angle of her face, and how she curled against him, he felt himself becoming excited, so he directed Yumi's eyes away from a certain part of him.

"Yumi-chan, I didn't have any idea that you..."

"Well, it is Takato-kun after all. No other boy I would do this with. And besides, you're wonderfully cute Takato-kun."

"A-Ah, Yumi-chan that's...y-you're suddenly being different. Is it because I'm a Devil?"

Yumi shrugged, snuggling against the boys body. Her aroma hit his nose, she smelled like strawberries. Her long blonde hair was right by his mouth and his nose as well. Her cuter than life expression was directed up towards him as well, and he felt hot inside of his chest.

"...Takato-kun, you took Hyoudou-san on a date, right?"

Her shy question was met with a soft yet timid smile.

"Well, date is a different term…."

"T-Then, please...maybe we could go on one as well...you and me, Takato-kun. Can we go on a date too?"

She didn't hold back, and showed her shyer self, and that was an absolutely adorable face.

"Yumi-chan, I didn't know that you felt like that..."

"It's Hyoudou-san's fault." Yumi confessed, her soggy eyes meeting his own. "I feel jealous, because she's so much more open than myself...n-not that I want to...maybe...I don't know. Takato-kun understands me...all the times we talked, and the pain we've both been in...I just wish to understand Takato-kun even more than ever before. So, how about it Takato-kun? I don't care when or to where...but, to spend more time with Takato-kun outside would be good."

Seeing how she truly seemed to want it, Takato's hand brushed Yumi's fade, and he smiled down at her.

"Of course, Yumi-chan. We've been quite close for a while now, so I don't see why not. But there is someone else that I..."

"Oh, don't worry, just form a harem."

"Pft!" He did a spit take at her casual answer. "W-What did you say!?"

"Form a harem, Devils do that all the time."

"B-But, that's not exactly the norm, is it?"

Yumi shrugs her shoulders.

"Well, it could be. I wouldn't worry so much about it Takato-kun, there's time for you to form a harem." Yumi giggled, snuggling against his chest, his cheeks burned red at the feeling. "Don't worry so much about it now Takato-kun and rest with me for a while."

"Yumi-chan..."

Takato stroked Yumi's hair, as she snuggled against him.

He felt okay with this. He actually knew Yumi before all this. He had developed a good friendship with her, and if she could be comfortable with this, then he was going to be comfortable with it as well.

"Takato-kun, don't worry, you'll be able to figure out what your Sacred Gear does."

"I hope so Yumi-chan, I really do. Because, I don't want to be in such a position again."

Yumi leaned up from his body, and got on top of him. Takato didn't know what she was doing, but the young girls face inched closer to his own. Her hands cupped his face, and her long blonde hair fell onto his own face, where he could smell her intoxicating scent once more.

"I had heard about the Exorcist that you had to kill." Takato's eyes went down, so Yumi kissed his cheek, surprising the young boy who laid there with blinking eyes. "I'm glad you're okay Takato-kun, I don't know what I would do if something bad happened to you. I mean, you already died, and you keep being attacked, it's those horrible Fallen Angels, attacking my Takato-kun, I wont ever forgive them."

"Yumi-chan, I..."

Yumi shook her head, leaning down with her body still on top of his own. Her breasts crushed into his chest, and her eyes caught his own. Hovering above him, she found him to be adorable. His shy expression, his eyes dangling on her own, the unevenness in his eyes, that's what she found very attractive in the young boy. All of it was a big turn on for someone like Yumi, and she couldn't deny that her body was cool, and because of him, it became hotter.

"Takato-kun, you're so cute, don't ever change."

Yumi buried her head into his neck, and groaned happily. Takato's arms went around Yumi's body and held her closer than ever before. Yumi felt accepted, and decided to stay in that position for a little while. They both were comfortable, she didn't cause him pain and vice versa.

It was, a beautiful moment between the two of them.

And no matter what, nothing could ruin it.

Takato's eyes went towards the side of the bed, where the gun and light sword were, he had taken them for himself, just in case something needed to happen.

It was, his insurance.

---

The next day, Takato had entered the school with Yumi. After the night they spent together, it seemed that they walked naturally even closer. Even though they hadn't kissed or anything, it just felt like they had grown closer.

But Takato kept replaying the thoughts of the Exorcist once more.

How he shot him, and how he had died.

However, before he could go to class, Takato held other thoughts.

"Erm, Yumi-chan. Where would Himejima-senpai be?"

"Well, she would probably be heading for her class, on the third floor. I believe that she would have History at this time."

"History huh...great! Then, I'll have to go and see her! See you later Yumi-chan!"

"Y-Yes, goodbye Takato-kun."

Takato waved, and walked up the stairs.

Getting up to the third floor, he walked to the History class. He didn't even know if Rias would be there, and he didn't much care. More than Rias, he felt Akeno probably would have more time than Rias since she was the Master, as far as he could tell.

Upon getting to the classroom, he happened to see Akeno heading for the class.

"A-Ah! Himejima-senpai!"

Akeno paused her body, turning around to meet Takato's face.

"Ara, it seems like a treat has come for me. So, what does the cute Miyamoto-kun wish from me?"

"A-Ah, Himejima-senpai, can I talk to you about something?"

Akeno tossed her head to the side, but consented so they went off to a quiet area of the school.

Getting there, Takato inhaled a breath, then nodded to himself.

"Alright, Senpai. Here's the deal. To do with my situation, with the Fallen Angels and all, and a Witch as well. As a Devil, I must have some cool powers, right? If I can do some amazing powers, then could you help me bring them out?"

Akeno gained a teasing face, leaning closer, and ran a hand across the young boys face. He shivered at her touch. Her fingers danced across his lips, his body sweltered, and his eyes fluttered, something Akeno found adorable.

"Fufu, why aren't you asking Buchou?"

"Well, I'm sure she's busy being the leader. And she did say, and you said, that you are the second in command, so I wanna say you're the second most powerful in the group, right?"

Akeno giggled sweetly.

"Well, I could be. But for my cute Kohai, is there a special power you'd like to know about? Could it be your demonic power?"

"Y-Yeah! Please, I need something, anything to have my powers used! If you could help me then..."

Akeno leaned towards the boy, and placed a hand on his lower back. Pulling him closer, his heart increased speed. Her eyes dangled on his form, and how he shivered at her tender touch. Feeling her smooth and luscious fingers touching him, it made him feel complicated.

"Fufu, well I could do that for you Miyamoto-kun. But I do have some conditions."

"Hmmmm?"

Akeno giggled.

"First of all, you may address me as 'Akeno-san' from now on."

Takato didn't see a problem with that, so he needed.

"S-Sure, Akeno-san. A-Ah, you can call me Takato as well, if you like!"

"Good Takato-kun. The second is, allow me to tease you~"

Takato's eyes flew open, Akeno's eyes fluttering at the feeling of being able to do such a thing.

"N-No! I'm not allowing you to do that! Please don't tease me..."

"But, I want to, you know? Because it is a boy, I've never had the chance to do it, and you're cute, I wish to play with you as well~"

"W-When you say play..."

Akeno giggled away, and he could see an S side coming out, her cheeks were becoming redder with each passing second.

"That's right, I just find you delectably adorable, I am curious about what kind of cute noises you could make. So, lets do it Takato-kun. Allow me to play with you, and I'll teach you a little bit about being a Devil."

"T-Teasing me is...Akeno-san is..."

Akeno shrugged, then moved faster than he thought she would. Her fingers touched his face, and her eyes landed upon his own. Her fingers then ran up his face, and ran through his hair. With the sensitive touching, his cheeks turned red, while Akeno's own face turned red as well.

"So you make a cute reaction like that. Fufufufu, your cheeks are even blushing and your shy expressions definitely make it all the more better. How cute Takato-kun, it makes me want to do it even more. What if I teased you a little more? We could play some games together Takato-kun~"

"A-Akeno-san, t-the thing is...w-what I am getting from you...are you an S? As in sadist...?"

Akeno stood there, shamelessly nodding.

"You have discovered my hidden secret. And now, because of that, you're going to have to be punished~"

"W-Wait, a second!"

Takato went to move, but Akeno caught the boy in her grasp, and held him close. With her fingers brushing over his face, through his blonde hair, and even over his lips as well. Akeno's face became more and more red at the possibilities that she could do with this boy. Because he was apart of Rias' group, she now had someone to 'play' with that wasn't a girl, and she did find Takato to be cute, so she didn't see any negative sides of this.

"Ooh Takato-kun, it is okay, I wont hurt you. I'm sorry for teasing you, do you forgive me?"

"Eeeeeh...that sounds like something an S says before they do something even more bad..."

"I don't know what you mean Takato-kun, I just wanted to play with you. So, come to the outside of the clubhouse after school, and I'll give you some basic lessons about Devils powers. By the way, Takato-kun. Would you wear your gym clothes? The shorts preferably."

"Eeeeh? Why?"

Akeno smirked, and didn't reveal anything.

"No reason, I just find them easier to move around in, we'll be sweating a bit and it would be better to sweat in those clothes." She adopted a sly smile. "Also, he looks cute in those clothing~ He'll be way more fun to tease in such tight clothing as well. Knowing Hyoudou-chan, she'd try something perverted, so it's best if she doesn't come."

She thought to herself, and she liked it.

She liked seeing Takato squirm, and now she had found a perfect playmate. Someone that was shy, yet can be assertive, and made cute expressions, he wasn't too tall, and he wasn't too small. He was the perfect height for her to have as a playmate, and if she could get him to wear his gym clothes, then she would be happy.

He himself didn't know what she had planning, but if they were going to be working out, he didn't see a problem in it.

"Sure, I can do that Senpai."

"Akeno-san~"

She sang out, Takato blushed shyly, nodding his head, Akeno's eyes ate up the shyness, and knew she'd definitely have fun with him.

"Y-Yes, of course, Akeno-san. Thank you, it means...a lot to me." Suddenly, his tone shifted, and Akeno switched from her teasing face, to a concerned face. "I...was a little worried you'd say no or something...because, maybe I've been truly difficult as a Devil, and kinda held up that cross to you all, Rias-buchou more, but still..."

Akeno could see that pained him that it happened, and she could truly see that he was a good person as she had heard from Koneko about the wrapping of her arm, when his own mind was going into overload, she liked him like that, so she allowed her arms to wrap around his head, and pulled him close.

"Hey now, don't worry. You were scared, anyone in your situation, unless completely crazy, or loved up, would do the same thing. You have nothing to be blamed for, Takato-kun. We all understood, and will still be here. You are apart of this family after all."

Takato liked that word…

Family.

Being a part of the family. Even a Devils one.

He could see why Isane was getting used to it faster than he was.

"Thank you, Akeno-san, I promise I'm going to work very hard."

"Fufu, I am sure that you will." Akeno broke the hug from the young boy, and tipped her head. "Be a good and punctual boy, after school, in your gym clothes, and outside of the old school building. Be there, my cute Takato-kun~ Fufu, don't worry though, I wont allow anything bad to happen to you while under my care~"

Takato looked on as she walked away. She swayed her hips, which in turn caused his cheeks to burn a little redder. However, Takato also understood that she probably was doing that to make him feel awkward about all of this. But that didn't matter to Takato, as he already did feel awkward.

---

After school that day, donning his school uniform, he walked to the school with his hands cupped together due to fighting nervousness of being alone with Akeno. However, that didn't concern him as once again, those red eyes, were watching him from the first floor.

Even if he looked, he knew they'd hide.

But, he knew they were there.

Those same eyes always watched him, and he knew that even if he said anything, no one would believe him. He just didn't get why these eyes seemed to focus in on him. Not even Isane, when she was around, but him, always him. And he didn't know why that was either.

"Fufu, you're ready."

Akeno was stood there, and she showed her cute smiles that would even make Takato feel happy.

"Y-Yes, Akeno-san, I am here."

Akeno looked him up and down, and smirked. Seeing how small his shorts were, and how it showed off, certain parts of him, it truly was a good day for her to see such a thing.

"Good, good. Now, the essentials of demonic power, is what we're going to be doing. I do sense a good wave of demonic power from you. If I had to classify it, it would be the third after myself, and Buchou right now."

"Eeeeeeeeh? I have that much demonic power?!"

"Potentially for now, yes."

"Even more so than Yumi-chan and Koneko-chan?"

"Fufu, unexpectedly, I sense a high grade of demonic power emanating from you Takato-kun~ It seems that you have a talent for demonic power, that's why I thought it would be good if we went with the demonic power first. Though your hand to hand fighting is good as well, according to Buchou who said you knew how to fight?"

Takato smiled sheepishly.

"Y-Yeah, I learned a few years ago..."

"Why is that? Did you learn from your Okaa-san? Otou-san?"

Takato's eyes lowered, and within his head, he heard a domineering voice that said "Useless trash." and "I wish it was you." and also "You're the reason she's gone." which replayed in his mind again and again, Akeno looking on with a curious face.

When he didn't answer, she tapped him on the shoulder, knocking him back to reality.

"S-Sorry, you asked why I can fight?"

"Y-Yes, you suddenly lost yourself in thought~"

She laughed it off, but Takato seemed to adopt a sad face.

"...My Otou-san taught me, though I haven't practiced in years, I don't like fighting. It only hurts people...well, that doesn't matter since I'm a killer now anyway."

"Oh, I see. So, was he a martial arts master-"

"I prefer not to talk about it Akeno-san if it is all the same. Can we please not?"

AKeno blinked at the unexpected coldness in his voice.

It wasn't coldness for Akeno, it was coldness...for the subject matter.

"Takato-kun...do you, have any family?"

"No, my Obaa-chan is gone now, I don't have anyone else, though there is a girl that adores me, and my...erm, a certain body part of mine. Obaa-chan always was lovely to me, even after all the burdens I placed on her."

"I'm sure that's not true."

"I did...it was my fault that...she gave up a lot to take care of me. When I was young...she took me in and looked after me, and when I became si...when something happened, she gave up a lot for me...and now she's gone. She also taught me some self defense moves as well. For an old woman, she surely was a feisty person, she could knock anyone out with a simple palm strike, yet she never abused that power, and only did it when necessary to defend or protect, never to fight for the sake of it. I saw her take down a brute once that was picking on me. He was like in college or something, and he was a bully type...and she simply said "Leave my grandson alone." before dropping him on his ass and made a cool face. I was so enamored by her...she was always strong...even at the end when it happened and I'll never get to apologize for all the burdens I placed on her, though knowing Obaa-chan she'd just call it silly, and say "You don't have anything to apologize for my boy, now get me some sake~" but even then I... S-So, demonic power huh?"

Akeno blinked some sadness she felt for what happened away, then nodded.

"Yes, that's right, demonic power. First, we have to have you create demonic power within your palms. Feel the wave of aura around you. Tap into the demonic aura that you gained when becoming a Devil. And allow it to shape a sphere in your palm."

Takato nodded his head, and concentrated within his palms, a wave of demonic energy. Feeling it within his heart, the aura to shape a sphere in his hand. He wished for it, so he could finally be able to do something with it.

As the wave of power came through, from below him, Akeno noticed that darkness was wiping around his feet. She was going to say something, but then a sphere formed in Takato's palm, it was quite the sight to behold. It held the colours of white and black at the same time, something that confused her.

"White and black..."

"Is something wrong?"

Takato wondered, the young woman shook her head, casting her eyes downwards, to see the shadows had gone back to normal once more.

Akeno faced the boy once more, and showcased a smile.

"Of course not. But, good, your demonic power has revealed itself. It can be changed into any element, like fire, lightning, water, things like that. Though, using it on existing bodies of elements is easier. Like this for instance."

Akeno placed her hand on the ground and sent out a pulse of demonic energy. As she did, around the young boy, the ground sank in on itself.

"Aaah!"

Because he wasn't expecting it, he fell over onto his face, Akeno giggled.

"Sorry, I should have braced you~" Takato was sure that she got off on this. "Well, that's how it is. To use your demonic power on normal elements around you is easier. Eventually, you'll be able to use your demonic power to shape the elements themselves. Like this."

Akeno put her hand to the side, and aimed a crate that she seemingly had set up.

The next second…

BASHA!

"Whoa! Cool!"

Takato had sparkly eyes as he shot up, lightning had broken away the crate, and left nothing behind.

"Fufu, isn't it just? I am very good at using lightning, so much so that it could be considered a specialty of mine. Now, why don't you try using your demonic power to control this water? If you can, then you can bend it to your will."

Akeno licked her fingers with a refreshing smile, her eyes on his in a teasing manner. He looked away shyly, wondering what she was trying to do, or rather what she would want to do with him. But she didn't stop, and showed her cutest face that she could, and summoned some water in bottles.

Takato went over to the water, as Akeno checked him out from behind, she was glad she made him wear shorts.

Akeno watched the boy try and try again to do the technique with demonic power. And she had to admire the fact that he truly wasn't a quitter, and wasn't giving up.

She also noticed red eyes on the young boy.

"Hmmm, I wonder why she is looking…?"

Thinking that to herself, Akeno watched the young boy try his hardest in what he was doing.

As he was, Akeno remembered what he was saying before, and she felt there was something more to it, that he wasn't saying.

She couldn't get it out of her head, so she walked closer, and draped her arms around his neck, shocking and confusing him.

"A-Akeno-san..."

"Sorry, Takato-kun, it seems like you needed a hug."

"N-No, I'm good."

She didn't exactly believe him, and rubbed faces with the young boy, his cheeks flushing.

"Fufu, don't worry, I definitely will take care of you Takato-kun, since you're my cute student now, I'll definitely not allow Buchou to bully you."

"...Akeno-san, thank you for teaching me, I definitely will do my best."

"Fufu, good boy~"

Akeno continued nuzzling the boys face, making him blush hard.

---

The next day, Takato had a call at the office once more.

He sighed, knowing who it was going to be, and he didn't want it to be her.

She had begun to ring almost everyday at the school, and he was sure something was going to give away to the adults that this wasn't a normal thing. And there was no way that he was going to give his number to the woman either.

[Hello, Takato. We've got so much to talk about today!]

Somehow, Takato had become Raynare's personal counsellor or therapist or something else he didn't know.

"Yes, hello Raynare. What can I do for you today?"

[As you said, I've been to my anger management sessions, and it has begun helping me. I've become a less angry person as a result. And I have been thinking about Azazel-sama as well. The reason I love Azazel-sama isn't because of his looks, it is because of his position. While God had allowed me to fall to being a Fallen Angel, I needed a guide in my life and that was Azazel-sama. That's why I have so much respect for him!]

Takato smiled to himself, as he took a bite of his lunch.

"Really, that's interesting. Do you think your love could be mistaken as a Otou-sama parenthood? Because, he is an older man, who was once apart of God's Angels, and now, that you've fallen, this older man has taken you under his wing so to speak. And is allowing you to grow as a person. Could you have mistaken your love?"

He took a drink of his water he had laying around, and sipped it while she answered.

[...You know, I've never thought about it like that. Yes, Azazel-sama took me in as a young girl, and gave me his hand. It is because of that, I had fallen for him...but, my love, could it be that I have mistaken it for parental love?]

"There have been cases around the world where the child has a love for their parental figure that is mistaken like that. Because this man replaced your parent, or adult figure, whatever, who was God, Azazel became someone you saw as a comforting blanket. Perhaps it is like that, can you see that?"

[Hmmmmmm...yes, that would make a lot of sense. If I could do that then…but even then, Azazel-sama is someone I do cherish as well...maybe it started out like that, but I do love Azazel-sama, but it is so confusing like the endless nights, that turn into the endless days, and return to the nights again...and then the women. First it started off as...]

Takato listened for, half an hour.

He had timed it, as he was watching the clock.

She spoke to him over the phone for that long about one topic. She repeated herself a lot as well. But Takato didn't know if he should just hang up. Somehow, this seemed to help Raynare's mental state, even if only a little bit.

[...And again, thank you for this. Same time tomorrow?]

"Actually-"

[Bye!]

Raynare hung up the phone, and he looked at the phone with flickering eyes.

"S-So, I'm just her therapist then now..."

"Who's?"

"Aaaah!" He jumped around to see Rias giving him a curious look. "W-What are you doing here?"

"I was walking by, and heard your voice. I was wondering what you were doing?"

Takato was going to tell the truth…

But something held him back from saying what it was.

"Oh, erm, nothing really. Just speaking to someone that's all. Well, I've got to go Senpai, see you in club."

"Yes..." She watched him walk past. "See you there."

She furrowed her eyes on the phone and had to wonder what was going on.

---

After a few days of training with demonic power among other things, and also doing Devils duties, things had been quiet. Takato expected that it was because of Yumi essentially living with him now which he felt slightly guilty about due to the fact that the young girl essentially had to stay with him and not have her own space. Because of that, he hadn't been attacked. Not even a blip on the radar screen.

Now, he and Isane were walking hand in hand (Ise's idea) towards the clubroom.

"Aaaaah man! You've been learning such things?"

"Hehe, yeah~ Akeno-san is a very scary, and good Sensei. Though she does keep spanking my butt as well."

"Why go for your ass? Though it is cute as well, I'd go for your pen-"

"Okay." Takato cut her off before she said the word, showing a shy smile. "C-Could we please not talk about my...erm, thing right now?"

"Hmmmm, later?" Takato shook his head shyly. "Well, we have to talk about it sometime Takato."

"N-No, we really don't Ise-san."

"Eventually we'll have too. Because it is the best I've ever seen. Even porn doesn't compare to a live one, so you'll show me again sometime, right Takato?"

Takato furrowed his eyebrows, not sure why he would have to have it spoken about. And her eyes then fluttered, and showed one of the cutest expressions in the world.

"N-No! We don't!"

Takato yelled...as once again, he was being followed.

He felt it, inside of the building, he was being followed.

Everytime he looked, they wouldn't be there, so he didn't bother.

But definitely one day, he was going to find out who it was that was following him.

Today wasn't that day.

"Come Ise-san! Lets pick up the pace!"

"S-Sure!"

Takato and Ise ran together through the corridors. Takato could hear the heavy panting coming from behind. He could hear the mumbles of a voice but he couldn't work out what the voice was actually saying honestly.

As they got to the stairs, Takato's eyes shot back, and briefly, he saw a flash of platinum blonde, and beautifully white skin, and pinkish eyes, which seemed to be in a state of distress as he noticed this thing.

He turned white, and felt sick to his stomach.

He couldn't believe it.

He actually saw it.

But it was gone as fast as it came, and scurried off.

Takato and Ise flew up the stairs on their feet, getting to the door, and burst it open.

"Haaaaah! That was fun Takato! A good workout before sex!" Takato and the others in the club gave her a weird expression. "E-Eh, never mind!"

Rias chuckled happily.

"It seems you two are spirited. Is there something going on?"

"N-No, nothing!"

Takato denied, and walked forward.

"Okay...well, whatever. Tonight, you're officially done with the leaflets." Takato and Ise breathe out a sigh of relief. "For now, it is time to do some contracts."

"Contracts..."

"I've read about those. It's for Devils to grant the wishes of humans, is that right Buchou?"

Rias nodded at Takato's words.

"That's exactly it. Now, Akeno, it is time to have your carved seal done. So, please stand in the circle."

Takato and Ise followed orders. With the others stood outside of it, Akeno came inside, and began casting some spell. The blue and white lights of the circle that was on the ground glowed. Takato and Ise glanced at one another, and both chuckled awkwardly.

Soon after that was done, Rias calls them.

"Ise, put your palm towards me, and Takato, yours towards Akeno."

"Fufu, I do love having my cutest member to play with~"

Ise shot a jealous took to Akeno as Rias wrote something on her hand.

Akeno went to take Takato's hand, but then she smirked, and ran her finger up his arm. Her soft finger drew all the way to Takato's face, and brushed gently. Then, that finger went down his chest, and around his back.

"So, Takato-kun, tell me where you want me to touch you…."

"A-Ah, my palm is good..."

Akeno showed a small pout.

"How unfair. Okay then, just for my cute Takato-kun."

Takato had to question why people kept calling him theirs. However, Akeno took his hand and wrote on it. From that, Takato could see that it was a magic circle. Even though he could use demonic power in small doses, he still hadn't become truly familiar with all of this now.

Like the magic circle on the ground, the one that had been drawn on Ise's, and Takato's hands were glowing blue and white.

"Odd, I thought it would glow crimson like your hair Buchou."

Rias showed her soft smile.

"Maybe in the future it might. But, for now, it seems to have done. Takato, Ise, with this, you'll be able to use the teleportation circles. And also, when the contract is done, it shall allow you to come back here straight away. Isn't that something?"

"It's, something alright. So, what are we going to do now?"

"First, Ise, please step outside of the circle. And Takato, you remain. You've already got a client, isn't that wonderful?"

Rias beamed, Ise reluctantly stepping outside of the circle, and watched from outside, taking the occasional look at Yumi, who didn't respond to it at all.

"How can I have a client when I haven't been a Devil all that long? And do we have to call it client? It makes it sound like you're pimping me out."

"Don't be silly. I have had a lot of female clients before, but since I've never had a male servant before-" Takato still hated being called a servant. "-I've never had the chance to expand towards that aspect. So, rather than be worried, enjoy yourself. This one is a milf, so have fun, are you into milf's?"

"Stop trying to hook me up please!"

Rias giggled, as the circle began to glow, and so did Takato as well.

"Good, it seems to be responding to the power. Also, you've read the manual on what you need to do next, don't you?"

"Yeah, I know."

"Good, now be going!"

Takato watched as the lights wrapped around him, and then he was transported away.

---

Getting to the clients house, his eyes shifted to the new place. The place he ended up being dropped off was in a bedroom. He could feel the heat around him, the room was quite hot. So hot that Takato found it slightly difficult to breathe…

And then he saw the reason.

Candles had been set up around the area. And the heating was on as well.

To the side, he noticed that there was two chairs, and a table had been set up.

But he couldn't see anyone around.

Looking left and right, he couldn't see anything that could lead him to a person.

"Erm...hello, this is the Gremory group, Takato here. Is there anyone here? Did someone here summon me?"

He called, but he didn't get an answer.

He walked to the table, and saw that upon closer inspection, that there were flower petals scattered across the table, and the floor. Even the bed that was beside him as well, now that he looked, also had flower petals as well.

It was super creepy.

It was something out of a love hotel scenario.

He didn't like it.

He felt fear.

He felt afraid of something that would be coming for him.

He just didn't know what he was going to do now.

"Ooh crap, please don't be a molester..."

He hoped from deep within his heart, but he wasn't sure he was going to get it.

"Hello there, Devil-kun."

Takato's body froze.

He turned to the door, to see an older woman, maybe around the age of 40 or so. She was wearing lingerie, and it showed off...many things Takato didn't want to see, due to being shy, and not fully secure in this situation.

"Rias-buchou said milf, and this woman is giving me molester vibes." He cried in his thoughts. "S-So, ma'am, did you...happen to call me?"

The older woman walked closer. Takato went to move, but the woman was surprisingly fast for a human. Her hand cupped his face, and another touched his butt as well. He felt like sobbing at this moment from the hands touching him.

"Hmmmm, young and cute. The girl didn't lie. And it seems you have a tight face as well as tight behind as well. I like them young."

"F-For what?"

He croaked, not wanting to be used.

The older woman tittered "Fufu." and looked to the table.

"Why don't we have a meal together, young one."

At that moment, Takato felt scared.

---

Sometime had passed since then, and Takato…

"I-It was awful!"

Takato sobbed into Yumi's chest. The young blonde petted the back of the males head, whispering comforting words. Rias looked on with sorrow, while Koneko and Akeno felt sorry for him. He truly looked like he had been through an ordeal. Ise wasn't around due to the fact that she couldn't use the magic circle for some reason Takato wasn't made aware of.

"Shhh now Takato-kun, I am here."

She whispered, while he continued to sob.

Rias looked on with worry for the young blonde haired male.

"A-Ah, Takato, there's no need to-"

"She was a pervert! Beyond Ise-san, and that's a huge accomplishment!" Takato yelled, tears streaming from his eyes. "S-She was hungry for young boys! Which I happen to be! She was terrible! Where did you find this woman...s-she did things to me...things that make my life feel like I am going to drown and I am never going to be able to recover..."

"What did she do to you?"

Takato couldn't answer Rias, and continued to sob onto Yumi's chest.

"Ara Buchou, who did you send him too?"

"It was only Yoshino-san-" A collective gasp rang out in the room. "W-What? What's wrong with you three?"

"S-She, that woman is nutritious in breaking young new male Devils with her...disgusting acts, that's why no one ever takes her requests anymore. Poor Takato-kun was lucky to get out of there with a sound mind."

"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"

"Okay. Almost sound mind."

Akeno finished off as he sobbed harder against Yumi's chest, recalling what that woman did. In the end, Akeno sat down beside him, and hugged him tightly.

Even Koneko, who usually didn't do such things, gave her Senpai a hug as well.

"...Buchou, she's known to do weird things to Bishounen boys. She once called a male member of the Glasya-Labolas clan as well...he had a mental break down the next day and finds it hard to do many things, even if he's on the road to recovery..."

"T-That was that woman? I didn't know!" Rias turned her soggy eyes towards Takato. "T-Takato, I am deeply sorry! I didn't know she was like that! If I had known, then I wouldn't of sent you, I swear!"

"She did weird things to me! I might never marry now!"

"Takato! I am so sorry! Do not worry, I'll find you a bride! Definitely!"

Rias hugged her male servant, and all four women wouldn't let him go. This definitely being one of the times that someone would need a hug.

"I'm going to go and watch Angel Beats!"

Takato declared, and stood up.

"N-No! You can't Takato! That anime is so soul crushing that you might turn into a husk! It is too sad!"

Rias cried out, wanting to change his mind.

Takato shook her off, and made a tearful face.

"I can only watch that anime when I am sad! Because it is so sad that I might even die when watching it happen! But when I am sad, I can handle the sadness very well, and look to the brighter side of life! Kanade-chan! Wait for me my Angel! I'm coming to watch you struggle and thrive! And you Yuri-chan as well! I am coming everyone!"

Takato bolted for the door, as Ise walked by.

"Heeeeey Takato! Did you-"

"I'm gonna watch Angel Beats, bye Ise-san!"

Rushing out the door, Ise blinked a few times, trying to wrap his head around what was going on.

But then Takato came back through the door, took Yumi by the hand, and took her away with him.

"Wait for me, Angel Beat's is good, and I can only watch it with someone else!"

Rias chased after him, the others titling their head's curiously.

Ise ground her teeth together, seeing how Yumi was 'stealing' Takato away from the young girl all the same. Even Rias was as well to an extent.

---

The next day, Takato went out early, while recovering from what happened with the old woman piece by piece. Because of the time of day, he could get in some morning runs. He hated being confided inside, he wanted to run around. He didn't bother waking Yumi up, and he could get a good morning run in.

The time, barely seven in the morning.

Now that he had become at least a little more into the Devils life, having gotten used to the sun somewhat. And he had even got a somewhat handle on demonic power, he couldn't fire off lightning or anything. But he could form it on his own and he could even use it on the surroundings as well.

With it, and while not figuring out what his Sacred Gear actually did, he could still summon it.

Even now, he summoned it, and de-summoned it a few times.

Though he didn't do it where he could be seen of course.

Only down alleyways and what not.

Because, that way, he would be able to use his staff to at least hit people at a moments notice.

Also, he had refused to go on Devil pacts now.

Even if Rias complained, he wouldn't do it.

Every time she tried to force him, she'd receive a bonk on the head from his staff, and he'd outright refuse to go. He couldn't take the chance that he was going to go to someone who was a perverted person, someone who would take advantage of him.

He'd never go through that again.

"Waaaaaah!"

Suddenly, Takato heard a noise, so he stopped running.

It sounded like a cry from someone.

His head cracked towards it, and he was caught in a dance of white. Something whipped towards him, so he caught it. He looked at it, and it looked like a veil. Yes, that's what it was. But it wasn't for a wedding, it was what a nun would wear, it even had blue crosses on it which glued him in.

His eyes turned back to the white he saw, and saw that there were some white flesh at either side. His eyes readjusted, and noticed that it was a young girl, with her legs open. His eyes fluttered, turning his head to the side.

"S-Sorry, I didn't look on purpose."

He apologized, since he didn't even know what he was supposed to do.

Her green eyes fluttered adorably, and she crossed her legs shyly.

"N-No, it should be I who apologizes." Her eyes focused in on Takato who had turned back with a timid smile. "A-Ah, you must be an Angel!"

"E-Eh!? W-Why would you say that?"

What he was thinking was "You sure you don't mean Devil?" but he didn't want to say anything.

His eyes looked over her, and saw her blonde hair, that reached down her back. She truly had an innocent face. More so than he had ever seen before. Her green eyes seemed to sparkle, and radiate her innocence. While she never would beat Rias or Akeno in bust size, she wasn't that bad either, she certainly had a good size. And Takato hated that he would even be looking at her curvy body like that, since she was a nun.

Said nun gained distance between them, and she looked at his face...no.

She was looking behind him, almost.

"Because of your blonde hair!" She exclaimed, getting off the ground and touched his hair that rested on his shoulder. He gushed at the closeness of the young girl. "It looks so divine and so soft as well, like a Saint's hair that would come down from Heaven and bless us. Have you come to bless me Angel-san?"

"Erm, I'm not an Angel, as far as I am aware anyway." His nervous laughter caused the young girl to tilt her head. "N-No, it's nothing...o-oh, your veil! Here."

Takato passed the veil back, presuming it was hers because she was the only person around.

"Ooh thank you very much Angel-san!"

The girl took back her veil, and put it on top of her head.

"Again, not an Angel."

"Then, how are you understanding me? Because everyone else looks at me like I'm speaking another...well, I am speaking another language..."

"Eeeh...I-I'm just knowledgeable about other languages, that's all!"

He lied.

Truthfully, it was because he was a Devil.

He could understand other languages. It was a perk of being a Devil. The gift of the gab, Rias called it. But he was sure that it was something else entirely. Even then, he didn't care, he could understand her, and even if she was a nun, he didn't seem to care all that much.

"Is that the case…? Well, I do think you're an Angel sent down from God who has come to test me..."

"N-No...wait, why would God need to test you? You're a Sister, right?"

The girl inclined her neck in agreement.

"Yes, that's right Angel-san." Takato sweat dropped. "I am someone who needs to be tested. So please test me Angel-san!"

"Erm...how do I test you? What am I testing you for?"

"Eh...I don't know~" Takato sweat dropped. "But Angel-san, could you please point me in the direction of the Church in this town please?"

"Church..."

"You must never go near the Church Takato, it is too dangerous!"

Rias' words rang out in his head, but he already was in danger.

While the Fallen Angels were around he was in danger anyway. And he could see the cute innocent girl asking her Angel (even though he truly believed that he wasn't) for directions. And if he was right on the innocence aspect, then she truly was a good girl after all.

"Eeeehe, the Church huh...well, there is one but that's been shut down for ages now. Are you sure it is this town that you're supposed to come too?"

"Y-Yes, that's right, this is the Church, of this town. This is Kuoh, yes? O-Or have I messed up…?"

"N-No, this is Kuoh! Y-Yeah, this is Kuoh. S-So, did the Church send you to rebuild the Church or something?"

"...The Church didn't send me...I-I mean, I was summoned here, someone is going to help me here with...erm, I am going to be helping the people that have set themselves up at the Church!"

The girl declared. However, with her small hesitations, he could tell that there was something else going on entirely, and he wasn't sure what those things were honestly. He was worried about it however, and he decided to do some good things as well.

"I-I see...well, the Church is...eeeh, it is a little complicated to get there from here. I'll take you."

"Thank you very much Angel-san!"

Takato didn't know if he should be happy or worried about being called that. But he decided to take her regardless, and went towards the Church.

---

"Thank you very much for taking me Angel-san! I had been lost for so long, and I couldn't find my way. And I couldn't speak to anyone so, it was a difficult time."

"N-Nah, it isn't a problem at all. I get that would be rather difficult. But don't worry about that now, I'll take you. We'll be there rather soon. If I'm right, it is past the park, and then up the hill from there. Are you going to be okay walking up the hill? It is rather steep."

"N-No! I shall be fine~ Please don't worry about me!"

Takato gave her a slightly bemused look.

"No offence, but whoever brought you here, should have given you directions."

"Y-Yes, you're right. After everything that happened, it was so quick, like a windstorm, and I was brought here, and left to my own devices. I was given the town, this town. Even getting here was a trial set by God..."

"God huh..."

Takato thought about what that meant for him and the others.

God, would he just leave a girl like this to herself?

He didn't have the answers, and he wasn't sure that he would want one either.

"Yes, God. He also brought me to his Angel!"

"I'm not an Angel."

He clarified for her, but the girl didn't believe him.

"No, you have to be! Before you came from Heaven, I couldn't ask anyone for help, and it was surely difficult. But this is God helping me. He sent me a personal Angel to help me get back on track to my life again."

"Eehe, I'm not sure God would send me, unless he's trying to have a joke..."

Takato muttered, and thankfully the girl didn't hear him.

What they didn't see was a young man who was watching them from afar. His eyes were glued on the young nun, and then shifted to the boy, who was close to her. His eyes turned red with rage, and his hands danced with what seemed to be energy.

"Asia's mine...he's going to get involved...no...he can't...I'll kill him...Asia's Angel...heh, it's about to be a dead Angel Asia..."

He whispered darkly, seemingly having become very annoyed, and decided to follow from the shadows.

---

As they walked, they passed by a park. And despite it being relatively early, he could hear "Waaaaaaaaaah!" coming from it. It sounded like a child's cry, and when looking, Takato caught sight of a young woman with a child that wasn't more than 7 years old.

"Are you alright Yoshi-kun?"

The boys mother comforted the child.

"Well, he'll be alright with his Okaa-" Before he could finish, the blonde girl walked to the child. "H-Hey! Erm, should I...eeeh, wait for me!"

He couldn't leave her now, so he followed after the young girl.

She arrived first, and looked down at the young boy.

"Are you okay? Boys shouldn't cry with a minor injury like this."

The young girl pats the boy's head gently.

The boy probably didn't understand what she is saying. But the Sister has a very kind expression, so much so that Takato truly thought that she was a good person after all. The Sister put her palm where the boy has injured himself.

Next moment, Takato was in shock. A green light orb appears from the Sister's palm and is flashing onto the boy's knee.

"W-What in the..."

Takato knew it wasn't demonic power, it felt too good for that. And he didn't know about magic, so it could have been that...no, he felt like it wasn't magic. He also felt some weird tingling sensation that was flowing out from his body as well.

The boys knee had been healed. The wound itself looked as if it hadn't been there for even in the first place.

"There, it has gone now. Your wound has been healed."

"Hehe, thank you Onee-chan!"

The young girl looked towards Takato, she was confused on what he said.

"He said "Thank you Onee-chan." it seems he's happy."

While the child was, the mother looked freaked out. And he noticed the nun also looked worried for the mother's gaze as well.

"S-Stay away from my child witch!"

The woman yelled, taking her child's hand roughly. The girl didn't know what she said, and Takato wasn't going to repeat it either.

"Don't call her that! She just healed your child's knee there! You should be grateful!"

"She's a Witch and you're a Demon for being near her!"

"Aaah...well, can't argue there, at least about me." Takato grumbled as the woman stormed off. "Eeh, sorry about that, she seemed rather rude to you huh."

The young girl waved her hand.

"N-No, I don't mind. If I can heal someone then..."

"Say...this is a stab in the dark, but from looking at your healing power is...I have to ask, if I said the words 'Sacred Gear' would that mean anything to you?"

Suddenly, the young girls eyes lit up, and she grasped his hand.

"You also understand about the power of God!?"

"Eeeh, in so many words, yes. Yeah, so you have one as well huh..."

"As well…? T-Then, you have one as well?"

Takato put his hand outwards, and summoned his staff to his hand.

"You got the power to heal, I summon a staff to my side."

"That staff..."

The girl looked upon the staff in his hand, and held a complex face.

"Eeeh, is something wrong?"

The girls eyes went over the staff for a few seconds.

"N-No, it just looks familiar. Maybe I've read it in a book before...or no, I think that..."

"Huh? Have you seen it before?"

Takato was excited at the prospect of learning about what power his Sacred Gear had.

But to his sadness, she shook her head.

"I'm sorry, I can't remember. Maybe...but that was a long time ago now."

"I see...well, it's alright. But wow, the power to heal, it's fantastic! If I had that, then I'd be like the healer of the group or something. It would give me a place on the team I guess...well, I'll find out what this stupid staff thingy does eventually."

"Yes, the lord would give his Angel something very unique for the protection of God and all his children. Isn't that right Angel-san?"

"Hahaha, you do know I'm not an Angel..." Soon after he said it, they had arrived at the Church. "Oh, look, we're here."

Takato looked at the Church and it looked as old as he remembered. Though it had lights on inside. So, it wasn't abandoned. If that was the case, then he knew that the Church dwellers inside would probably be against the Devil him being there as well.

"Ooh yes, this is the place! Thank you very much! I wish to repay the Angel-san who helped me!"

Takato waved his hand.

"No, you don't have too."

"But, I would like to do something..."

Takato glanced at the Church, and it gave him the chills. He could feel it running down his spine and he didn't like it at all.

"Aah, no, I'm sorry. I've got to finish off my jog, a-and to do work for the Angels...why did I say that..."

He muttered at the end, but the girl placed her hands together, her eyes sparkling.

"Yes! I understand completely Angel-san! I am sorry, I am hogging all of the Angels time! But, could I make a request please before you go?"

"S-Sure..."

"Erm, two requests?"

Takato chuckled, petting her head.

"Of course."

"T-Then, my name is Asia Argento, please call me Asia! Could I know the Angel's name? It's...Michael-san, isn't it? It has to be Michael-san...or, Raphiel-san, maybe? Or could it be..."

"Miyamoto, Takato. That's my name, call me Takato."

"Takato-san...that sounds like a lovely name..."

"So, what's your second wish then Asia-san?"

Takato got out, giving the Church a weird expression. He truly did feel out of place here. He didn't like that he was in such a situation at all.

"Yes, my second wish is to have a meeting with you again. Can we meet again in the future?"

Takato truly knew he should have said no.

He knew that meeting the girl would cause bad consequences to happen.

But, he was going to have to do it.

Because he was so drawn to this girl.

She was so kind and innocent.

It was a perfect type of girl who he would even be friends with.

If he was a human, he'd definitely have this girl as a friend.

"...Yeah, when I'm not busy, we could meet again."

He smiled out, inside he was unsure of what he was going to do when Rias discovered this. Though he still didn't consider himself a slave, and even if she got pissed off, he'd deal with it.

"Y-Yes! That is good! B-By the way..."

"You want a third one, right?" She nodded shyly. "Sure, what is it?"

"Yes...erm, as an Angel you would know...did I do something wrong?"

At the end, there was a vulnerable aspect to her face, and her voice was trembling a little bit. From that, Takato felt worried that she would be going through something and he wasn't exactly aware of what it was actually.

"Asia-san..."

"Erm...no, it is okay. Maybe I didn't try hard enough...d-do not worry Angel-san, I shall do my best!"

Even if she turned peppy, he could tell there was something of a deeper meaning to all of this.

"Asia-san, why do you think you did something wrong?" Asia didn't say anything, and only looked away sadly. Takato placed a hand on her shoulder, and gave her a kind smile. "For what it is worth Asia-san, I can't ever imagining you doing anything wrong. Even from our brief interactions, I can tell, you're a good person, someone I am sure God would be proud of."

Asia's eyes watered, and she cupped her mouth.

"T-Then! Thank you Angel...erm, Takato-san!"

"Y-Yeah, no worries~ Goodbye Asia-san!"

"Yes, goodbye Takato-san, my Angel!"

Takato chuckled awkwardly, and walked off away from the young woman. As he walked off, Asia looked on at the boy, and placed a hand to her face, smiling "He is an Angel." as she imagined a light was beaming down on his form.

---

As Takato walked down the road, he brought out his phone, and put on some headphones.

"You're always super special~ That's why you are here with me~ Miracle baby, born on the same super star~"

He sang out, as he put on the headphones, listening to a song from an anime.

And then he took off at a gentle brisk run as he was going to do before he met the kind Asia.

However, as he was running, the young man from before had been watching this entire time, and saw how close Takato got with Asia.

How he helped her.

How she seemed to call him an Angel.

How he wanted to be Asia's love, and not Takato.

In that instance, he could feel the hatred for Takato rising.

And with no one else around, he saw this as a good chance.

He was going to make sure nothing could come back to him, so he brought out a knife, and aimed for Takato's body.

"Bye, bastard."

Releasing the knife at a blinding speed, it headed for Takato's head, fully intending to kill him.

As the knife traveled towards him, a pulse erupted from Takato's heart, and he briefly lost consciousness it seemed, as his eyes turned hollow though he stayed standing in place.

And when he did, his shadow from behind him grew larger.

"W-What...?"

The young man couldn't believe it, as he watched the shadow twist.

The shadow grew to the same height as Takato, and the knife...

It slid through the shadow, and disappeared all together.

"Where did it go...?"

The young man looked around, not realizing his own shadow was twisting as well.

Then, the knife was dislodged, and the young man didn't see it until the last second, and received a stab wound to his body causing him to cry out "Aaaaaah!", as the shadows wrapped around his arm like a rope. The man looked down and tried to get away, but the shadows responded to some will, and threw the man backwards, away from Takato, but close enough so they could see one another.

Takato then came to his senses, and looked around but not behind him, his head feeling fuzzy.

"Huh, what the hell was...o-oh, right~ You're always super special~"

Takato waved off the weird feelings he had, and because the music was on so high, he didn't hear the cries from the other young man on the ground, with the knife sticking out of his side.

The young man, panted at the feeling of the knife, and put his hand onto it as well.

"D-Damn it, this bastard is dead!"

The young man's hand aimed at Takato, and demonic power gathered.

He didn't care if he was found out, stabbing him equaled death in his eyes.

However, before he could fire off the demonic power, two shadows came from the side, two girls, one with large breasts, and the other with normal sized breasts.

"Shoulder barge bitch!"

"What!?"

The young man was stunned as the elder girl barged him with her shoulder, knocking him over.

Then she grabbed his arms, and called "Grab the bastards legs!" to the smaller girl, which she did, and dragged him off to the bushes, as Takato felt something weird, turning his head back around...but, didn't see anything.

He felt weirded out, but continued running, picking up the pace a little bit more than before.

In the bushes, the two girls pushed the man against a tree, and used some technique to trap him in a seal.

"W-What!?"

His eyes went towards the young women and couldn't see their faces, as their wore masks. The taller woman wore a hockey mask like Jason Voorhees and the smaller one had a Freddy Krueger mask on.

"W-Why did you attack Takato-sama exactly? That's not nice! He's already got a lot going on, he doesn't need you attacking him either!"

Freddy mask yelled out with her anger being displayed through her voice.

The man didn't know how to respond, he was frightened.

"Listen to me and listen good!" Jason mask yelled. "That boy, off limits. You attack him, and you'll incur the wrath of us, do you get it?"

"W-What? Why!? Who are you!?"

Jason mask ran a finger down the man's face, making him cringe.

"That's not your concern, but as I said, he is out of bounds. Hurt him, and we come for you. We know who you are, and we'll come for you in your sleep, get it? Oh, breathe a word of this, and I'll come for your balls."

The young man looked down and then tears ran down his face as he turned pale.

"P-Please don't! I beg you!"

Jason mask nodded her head.

"Good man, but if I catch you near that boy, and your balls, I'll put them in my fireplace. Heard of blue balls?" He nodded with tears streaming down his face. "These will be red balls. So hot, they'll burn."

He looked so scared that colour couldn't appear on his face, he was completely drained mentally.

"Eeeeep..."

Jason and Freddy masks looked at one another, then turned around.

But then Jason mask turned back, and punched the man in the stomach, making him fall down to the ground.

"W-What are you doing?"

The younger girl gasped out, while the elder woman shrugged.

"Bastard targeted Takato-chan, he can't be allowed to get away with that."

She walked off, following Takato from the shadows, and then the Freddy mask bowed her head towards the man on the ground, then turned and followed the young woman to make sure that he was safe and sound.

The younger girl watched Takato running, and she put her hands together.

"Being this close to Takato-sama, is a treat, I wish I could discuss many things with him!"

"Shhhh you, he might hear us."

The older one advised, making the younger girl pout, and follow him from the shadows in silence.

---

End chapter!

So, Takato's summoned his Sacred Gear, or rather, Sacred Gear's! Yup, he has Trick Vanish and Night Reflection, though he doesn't know about the latter yet, focused on the staff in his hand, but he'll know about it eventually. Why he has the two of them right now, he wasn't born with both. He received one of them from someone important, the story of that shall be told in the future.

But, now he has Yumi semi-living with him, and even sharing a bed on Yumi's suggestion. And he's also got to learning demonic power as well from Akeno who loves to tease him! He'll surely have some fun with demonic power in the future as well. It shall be explosive~

He even keeps discussing things with Raynare, she really has come to depend on him as her therapist or something~ Rias sent him to a milf who was very, thirsty, and Takato was quite traumatized, along with being chased by something inside of the Occult building. And at the end, he met Asia, who mistook him for an Angel!

Then at the end, it seemed...something happened to Takato. What that was, we'll explore more in the future, and it seems Takato's got two guardians out there (pretty sure people can guess who they were) and stopped a man obsessed with Asia (again, pretty sure people can guess who that is) and protected him for the moment!

Now, we're getting to another topic, and this time we'll be talking about familiar's! I've had some cool suggestions, and I'd like your guys opinion as well on the suggestions I received. One was a Hydra, Takato taming a Hydra would be awesome, and would bring in a few cool aspects. Another was a contract like Kunou and Makoto have in another story of mine, and that would be with Kuroka instead, who would make random deals for the contract to be completed, and since we know that she watches over him, it could be cool idea, and funny as well, even if she's a Devil former Youkai, I thought it could be cool. Another is a Dragon like Asia gets, though not Tiamat, wanna try different things here. A funny one someone suggested over PM was Ophis as well, obviously a contract and all, though she probably wouldn't fight unless truly necessary, maybe it could be apart of his future rep of 'taming' Dragon's. How that would come about, I've got a few ideas, the same for Kuroka. Or a combinations of these ideas.

So yeah, those are the options, if you've got anymore, let me know!

Well, with nothing else to say, it is time to end the chapter!
