Chapter 3: The Girl Who Fell From the Sky Part 2
"OPPAI!"
Rias frowned as she heard this. It was not even a minute ago that Mikan, Asia, and she had just finished cleaning up the kitchen. The three of them were making their way up the stairs, with the red head planning to sneak into the bathroom for a little one on one time with her beloved pawn when the girls had heard some kind of loud splash. At first, when this was heard, Mikan had brushed it off as Issei probably fooling around. But then, a few seconds after that single yet loud splash, the pervert shouted his favorite word loud enough for the next door neighbors would hear.
Deciding to see what was up with the brown haired boy, Rias walked over to the bathroom door. However, before she could open it, Issei slammed the door open, running out into the hallway with nothing but a towel around his waist. Turning to face the girls, the three could see a small trail of blood leaking from his nose while his eyes were wide with shock and awe, mixed in with a little perversity.
Pointing to the bathroom, the brown haired boy shouted, "N-n-n-naked girl! There's a naked girl in the bathroom! Naked girl! Big! Glorious! Oppai!"
Upon hearing Issei's words, the girls' eyes widened. Rias was the first to react, running inside the bathroom to see this naked girl. Following behind her was Mikan with Asia trailing behind a moment afterwards. All three had expected to see the naked girl that had riled Issei all up. However…
"…Ise, there's no one here," the heiress said as she looked around the room.
Indeed, there was no naked girl in the bathroom as Issei said there was. All that was in the bathroom was a tub filled half way with water with the other half spread out on the floor.
Peeking into the room, Issei's face turned to confusion. "But," he began while looking around the steam filled room, "but, there was a girl here! A-and she had big…glorious…soft…she was here, I swear!"
Looking at her pawn in concern, Rias pushed his hair up before placing her forehead against his, causing Issei to stiffen and Asia to pout cutely. While she could have just used her hand, she wanted to at least make Issei blush a little, which did happen.
However, while the pervert's face did become crimson, the red head could not feel any abnormal temperature. Frowning a bit, Rias backed away from him before saying, "You don't have a fever. Maybe today has been a bit too stressful…or maybe the steam caused a small hallucination, but could that even happen?"
Swiveling his head from one girl to the next, Issei stuttered, "B-b-but, I did-"
"Ise," Mikan said, cutting him off, "I know you're a pervert, but can you not imagine something like this while taking a bath." She then sent him a teasing smile that only a younger sister could send. "At least do it in your room."
Sighing, Rias placed a hand on Issei's cheek before saying, "Why don't you get dry and head to bed? Maybe a little sleep will do you some good." The red smiled in a calming way while tilting her head cutely.
His shoulder drooping in defeat, Issei sighed himself before nodding. "Yeah," he began, "Maybe I need some rest."
Accepting his answer, Rias clapped her hands as she said, "Good answer. And…" Her eyes then became sensual as she leaned into his ear and whispered, "I'll need a nice pillow to sleep with tonight."
Issei blushed even harder after hearing that, but not before letting a goofy and perverted grin grace his face. Nodding numbly, the boy watched as Rias left the bathroom rather casually. Mikan sighed and shook her head as she observed the red head bribe her brother before walking out of the bathroom herself, not sparing the still grinning boy a goodbye. And with his sister gone, the only two people in the bathroom were him and an incredibly cute pouting blonde.
Knowing what her master had done, Asia rushed over to the boy saying, "I-Ise-san, p-please lean down!"
The blonde girl's words snapping him out of his fantasy, Issei complied with the girl's request. Then, with confused eyes, he watched as Asia, sporting a nervous look along with a beat red face, place her forehead against his. It only lasted for a few seconds, but the effect was immediate; the two of them blushed to the point where it looked like they did have a fever. Asia, embarrassed that she just did what she did, pulled back from Issei before running out of the room. Turning around and watching the girl run out of the bathroom while holding her blushing face, Issei reached up to feel his forehead. He then gave one more look at the bathtub before sighing in resignation.
"What was I thinking?" Issei asked himself as he left the bathroom, fully dressed in his pajamas. "A naked girl appearing in the bathtub; when does that ever happen?" However, as he reached his bedroom door, he looked down at his right hand before performing a grasping motion. "But I know I felt something…something…amazing…" Shaking his head, Issei grasped the doorknob and opened his door. "Whatever, she's not real so I should stop thinking about it."
"Hi!"
Stopping in place, the pervert look slowly moved his head to look at his bed. There, sitting on the end of his bed, with a towel wrapped around her body, was the pink haired girl that had suddenly appeared in his bathtub not five minutes ago. Not only is she sitting on his bed rather casually, she looked at him with an expression that made him wonder if she remembered that he groped her when she appeared before him.
Though considering how calm and innocent her expression seemed to be, he figured that maybe she either forgot or just didn't care.
Sending the boy a smile, the mystery girl adjusted the towel around her body a bit before saying, "I hope you don't mind me borrowing one of your towels."
Slowly turning around, Issei reached out and carefully pushed the door the shut before turning around to face the nearly naked girl once more. He then took a deep breath, before shouting, "YOU'RE REAL?!"
"Of course I'm real!" the girl said, not at all affected by the loud question.
"B-b-but, when I left…! And you were…you…you..." As Issei tried to form a coherent sentence, his mind began to crash and restart.
The girl then laughed; not in a malicious way but in an amused manner at the boy's reaction. "You're really funny!" she exclaimed as she walked up to the pervert. As she made her way up to him, Issei realized that he was a couple of centimeters taller than her and with how close she was he could look down and see the girl's breasts and cleavage. This sight made him blush, but it also caused a perverted smile to form on his face. However, he did try to look away from the girl's breasts.
Key word tried.
"What's your name?" the pink haired girl asked, oblivious to the fact that Issei was able to see her form; that, or she really didn't mind.
"M-my name?" Issei asked, "It's I-I-Issei Hyoudou. B-but you can call me Ise."
"I-se," the girl repeated, testing the name out, before breaking into another smile that, like her previous one, lit up the room, "Alright Ise! My name is Lala!"
"L-Lala?"
"Yep, Lala Satalin Deviluke from the planet Deviluke!"
"Oh, from the planet-" Issei cut himself off at what the newly named Lala said. Doing a quick double take, the brown haired looked at the pink haired girl in confusion before asking, "The planet Deviluke?"
Smiling at the boy, Lala nodded her head. "Yep!"
"So…you're an alien?"
Lala laughed at the question as she rubbed the back of her head. "Well, from your perspective, but from mine you're the alien."
As he opened his mouth to reply, Issei thought about what she said. 'Well…I guess that is true. I mean, if she is from another planet, then she views everyone here as aliens. But…is she really an alien?'
Looking at the contemplative expression on the boy in front of her, Lala pouted a bit, which only made her look even cuter. "You don't believe me?"
His thoughts broken by the girl's question, Issei scratched his cheek nervously as he looked to his left. "W-well," he began, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's more like I've never seen an alien before and well…you look like a typical adorable girl here on Earth."
Thinking on his words, Lala snapped her fingers. She then took a few steps away from the boy and turned around while saying, "I think I have something that girls on Earth don't have!" She then proceeded to bend down and lift the towel that covered her bottom up.
Seeing this, Issei's face became a deep crimson while a line of blood began to trickle down his nose. His expression was a mixture of lecherous and alarm. "W-wait a minute!" he exclaimed, "D-don't just undo your towel like that!" And yet he was not looking away. However…
"Here!"
Whatever Issei was expecting the girl to show him, he did not expect what was presented before him. A little above the pink haired girl's bottom was a long, thin, black tail that had a heart shape tip.
Looking over her shoulder, the alien girl laughed cheerfully as she said, "See, I don't think girls here on Earth have tails. But don't worry, I won't transform if I look at the moon!" As she said this, her tail wiggled around in the air, showing off that it was indeed a real tail.
Watching the tail, several thoughts went through Issei's mind: 'She's got a tail! Girls on Earth don't have tails! But…maybe she's a kind of yokai? I mean, if Fallen Angels and Devils exist, yokai have to exist too. But what yokai has a tail like that? Maybe she really is an alien. And did I hear a Dragon Ball reference in their?' Shaking his head and wiping away his nose bleed, Issei looked back at the girl's face asking, "OK, if you're an alien, why are you here on Earth? And for that matter why…no, how did you end up in my bathtub? Naked no less!" Though, he wasn't really complaining about that last part.
Turning back around, Lala smiled proudly as she raised her hand up to reveal some sort of elegant bracelet; one look at it and Issei could swear that it came right out of a sci-fi movie or Sentai series. "I used this! My Pyon-Pyon Warp-kun! This allows any living unit to teleport anywhere!"
His eyes widening in awe, the pervert leaned in to look at the device much closer. "It can teleport you anywhere?"
Nodding at his question, she replied, "Yep…but, I can't choose where it teleports me and I end up teleporting without any of my clothes." She looked a little embarrassed at those last words, causing Issei to face fault and look at the device with less awe than he did before.
'So that's why! It's seriously flawed!'
"And…" Issei's thoughts were broken as Lala continued, her face looking more distraught than before even as she kept her smile, "I'm being hunted."
'Hunted?' the pervert thought, his face taking on a concerned expression. "Lala…"
"Lady Lala!"
Both individuals jumped a bit at the sound of a high pitched voice from nearby. Looking towards the window, the two saw the source of the voice came from a small…well, Issei had no idea how to describe it. It was small and completely white. Its eyes were two black swirls and it had neither a mouth nor nose. It wore a small white coat with yellow edges along with a blue shirt and red tie. If Issei could say one thing about it, he would say it looked to be some kind of toy.
Upon seeing the toy-like object, Lala's previously somber face turned to pure excitement. The girl ran towards the window with her arms stretched out as if she was expecting a hug. "Peke!" she exclaimed in joy.
The toy(?) jumped into the pink haired girl's arm while replying, "Lady Lala!" When the two met, Lala held it close to her before spinning around laughing.
While this was all happening, Issei was watching in both confusion and amusement. While he had no idea who or much less what this new arrival was, it did warm his heart a little seeing Lala act like this.
When Lala had finished spinning, the toy then looked to the side and right at Issei. The devil matched its stare, though his was more of confusion. The toy then turned back towards Lala before asking, "Lady Lala, who is that dull looking Earthling?"
'Dull looking?!' Issei thought, ticked off that some toy was calling him dull looking.
"That's Ise, he lives here," the alien replied back, not at all making a comment on the toy's remark. She then looked over at Issei, who was busy sending an annoyed glare at the thing in her arms. "Ise," she began, catching the pervert's attention, "This is Peke. She is a costume robot that I invented back on Deviluke."
Upon hearing this news, the brown haired boy furrowed an eyebrow. "A…costume robot that you invented? …I'm not going to lie, that's actually kind of cool." 'Though I'm not dull looking!' However, a new thought occurred to the boy upon going over Lala's words. "Wait, she?!"
Lala nodded at his question before looking back at Peke and asking, "You weren't followed, right?"
"Of course Lady Lala," the costume robot replied, "I made sure to give them the slip!"
"Um…who's the-woah!"
Issei's question was cut off as he watched the girl throw her towel off. Even though her back was to him and her long hair covered her bottom, she did end up leaning forward a bit, causing Issei to have a bigger nose bleed than before which in turn caused him to cover his nose, his head leaning down a bit. 'I'm not complaining, but don't girls usually have more modesty when near a bo-' He cut his own thoughts off as he thought back to Rias and how she was more than comfortable showing him her body.
"Alright Peke," Lala began, "You know what to do!"
Giving a salute, the robot said, "Yes ma'am!" Then, a bright light covered Peke before she transformed into some kind of rope and wrapped herself around Lala. Issei then watched as another bright light covered the pink haired girl before filling the entire room, blinding him for a moment. When the light had dimmed down, there stood Lala, only this time she was wearing clothes, albeit some of the strangest Issei had ever seen; but given the fact that she is an alien, it only made sense.
Her clothes appeared to be a much larger version of Peke, with some minor differences. For one thing, she wore a large hat that appeared to be Peke's head with two bat wings on the sides. There was also a rather frilly short skirt that was on the sides of her hips. If Issei was to sum up how he believed Lala looked, it would be…
"So freakin cute!"
Said girl giggled at the pervert's compliment. "Great job as always Peke!"
"My pleasure Lady Lala," the hat said, confirming the boy's belief that Peke was the hat. "But I have to ask, what do we do now?"
Cupping her chin, Lala looked down while her face appeared to be in thought. "That's a good question. We'll need to lie low for a while-"
"Wait a minute," Issei said, breaking the girl out of her thoughts, "Earlier you said you were being hunted right? Just what kinds of people are hunting you? Why?"
The alien looked at the boy before replying, "Some really bad people! People who want to make me do something I really don't want to do!"
Hearing this, Issei's mind immediately assumed the worse possible scenario and he immediately began to delete those images before he became sick to his stomach. His eyes brimming with determination, the pervert stepped up towards the girl before declaring, "Well, if you need some place to lay low, you can stay here!"
Tilting her head in confusion, said girl asked, "You…would let me stay here?"
The devil gave the girl a smile and thumbs up as he replied, "Yep, if you need help, I'm more than happy to help out!"
Upon hearing this, Lala's confused expression morphed into one of joy. The girl then grabbed the boy's hand as she asked, "You would really do that for me? Thank you so much Ise!"
"Lady Lala," Peke said, "Are you sure that is the best action. We barely know this Earthling."
Stepping away from the boy, Lala looked at her costume robot, her smile still in place, and said, "Don't worry about it Peke! I think we can trust Ise!"
"Well," said robot began hesitantly. It was not as if she was completely distrustful of the human before her, it is just that her mistress' safety was her number one priority. But, she would go with what her mistress felt was best. "I have no complaints then."
"OK," the brown haired boy said as he looked away, "we'll just need to keep you somewhere where Mikan, Buchou, Rito, or Asia won't be able to see you."
"THERE YOU ARE!"
Suddenly, two men appeared in the pervert's room. They both were taller than him and wore matching black suits, white shirts, black ties and black sunglasses. They also appeared to have tanned skin, but that was where the initial similarities between the two ended. One of the two possessed green hair and had a very stoic expression. The other sported red hair along with a large scar running down his left eye.
'What is this, the Men in Black?!' Issei thought as he looked at the two men, whose focus were dead set on the pink haired girl.
It was then the devil took another good look at the men and his eyes widened at what he saw. The two of them both possessed a tail similar to Lala's; the only difference was that theirs ended with a diamond tip instead of a heart.
"We finally found you," the red head said while his partner just continued to stare at the pink haired girl. "We have to thank your little robot companion for leading us here. And she did so without even knowing we were following her."
Frowning at this new information, the only female closed her eyes before saying, "Peke."
The costume robot jolted in fear at the oncoming scolding that was imminent. "Y-yes Lady Lala?"
"Didn't I tell you not to get followed?"
"Y-yes, my apologies."
"Ah!" Lala exclaimed, "You had one job! Now all that work we did is gone to waste!"
The two men then closed in on the girl, squeezing the pervert out. "Come quietly now and we won't have to use force," the red head demanded, his eyes not leaving the girl.
"Lady Lala, why not use the teleportation device again?" Peke asked with a slimmer of hope that they would be able to escape the same way as last time.
As her eyes shifted back and forth between the two men, Lala replied, "I can't. Pyon-Pyon Warp-kun can only be used once before needing to recharge itself."
"Alright, hard way it is," the older man declared before reaching out and grabbing Lala by her wrist and dragging her to him, "Come on!"
"No!" the girl cried out in fear before trying to pull herself out of the male's grip.
[BOOST!]
Looking up at his partner, the red head asked, "Hey Smutt, did you say somethiUGH!"
However, he was cutoff mid-sentence by a surprise punch by the very much forgotten Earthling. One look at Issei's face and you could tell he was not very happy. His eyes were narrowed and filled with anger while a teeth gritting frown was plastered on his face. On his left hand was the Boosted Gear in all its glory and from his stance alone it was clear what his intentions were: beating the crap out of the two jackasses who just grabbed a girl like Lala by her hand and were going to force her to go with them against her will.
After being surprised attacked, the red head let go of Lala's hand, allowing her to draw it back and step away. Seeing his partner attacked, the alien known as Smutt raised his fist into the air before sending it flying towards the pervert. However, seeing this attack coming, Issei side stepped the male before delivering a gut punch with as much force as he could.
With the two men down, Issei ran over to Lala, picked her up bridal style, leapt out his window, onto the streets, and took off running away from the house.
Confused by the boy's actions, Lala looked up at the boy who held her in his arms while he ran. "Why did you-"
"I wasn't about to stand by and let those two take you against your will!" Issei replied back, his eyes never losing the same determination they held before. "And I wasn't going to let that jackass grab you like that! I said I'd help and I meant it!"
The pink haired girl's expression, along with her mechanical companion, became stunned upon hearing the pervert's declaration. Her face then morphed into one of joy as her cheeks pinked a bit. She had always heard stories about girls being carried like this but now it was happening to her. 'This isn't so bad,' she thought happily.
As he continued to run through the darkened streets of his neighborhood, Issei looked over his shoulder to check if they were being followed. From what he could see nobody was following him, but guys like them never gave up so easily.
[BOOST!]
Looking at his left hand, Issei mentally tallied another stored boost. 'That makes six about now,' he thought, 'I'm halfway through my limit. Just one more minute.' He then looked back at the road before his eyes widened in shock.
Standing in front of him was the green haired male of the two suit wearing aliens. Stopping in place, Issei and Lala watched the man in front of them, waiting for him to make his move. The sound of footsteps caused Issei to look over his shoulder, only to see the red head standing behind him.
'Guys blocking my front and back,' the devil thought, concern for the girl in his arms increasing.
"Listen Earthling," the male behind him began, "While you may have caught us off guard back there, we won't hold that against you. Just give us the girl in your arms and we'll leave you alone."
Turning to where the suits were on either side of him, the pervert's eyes darted side to side. Lala could feel the boy's grip tighten a bit, but not to the point where it was uncomfortable.
Casting each male one more look, the pervert sighed in defeat. 'Guess I have no choice.' He then turned back towards the green haired alien and took off running towards him.
Every one of the aliens was surprised by this action. The two men thought the boy was plain crazy. Peke thought Issei was going to get them captured. And Lala…
She felt like she could trust Issei. From everything he said and did, there was something about him that made her have no doubt that everything would be OK.
As Issei was a few feet away from Smutts, the boy placed his foot right into the ground and proceeded to jump. Now, what the two men expected to happen was for the Earthling to not jump very high and fall, allowing them to pick up the spoils.
What they didn't expect was for the pervert to jump right over the green haired alien, land on the ground and take off running again.
Taking time to process the impossible feat that the Earthling had just performed, the two shook their heads and took off after the three once more.
As he ran out of the narrow streets and onto the more open area, Issei could not help but worry about his decision. He had just shown Lala that he was not exactly normal. He had no idea what her reaction would be much less what his master's would be. 'But,' he thought, 'it was to save her, so…I think that is enough of a cause to do it.'
"Ise-"
"I'll answer any question you have, but right now we need to get you away from those two!"
Taking that as the only answer she would get for a while, Lala nodded before looking behind them; her eyes widened to saucers at what she saw. "Ise, behind us!" she cried out in fear.
Looking over his shoulders, Issei's eyes matched Lala's as he looked up to see that red head alien in the air. The only problem with that scene was that he was holding a tanker over his head. Turning back around, the pervert made triple time in the hopes of escaping the alien and the new weapon he possessed. As he did this, the alien threw the tanker down to the ground, a few meters away from the two; he threw it so easily that it made the tanker look like some kind of soccer ball.
When the tanker hit the ground, Issei leaned in to protect Lala.
"Ise," Rias said as she entered her pawn's bedroom, "I'm here to grant you your reward."
However, all she was met with was silence. Looking around the room, Rias noticed a distinct lack of a lovable pervert residing on the bed. Placing her cheek in her hand, the crimson haired girl adopted a confused yet contemplative expression. "Where did he go?" Her attention was so focused on finding her pawn that she did not even notice the open window.
She then heard a huge explosion. Turning her sights onto the window, her eyes widened at seeing what she saw: a huge cloud of smoke began forming as the result of a huge fire several blocks away from the house.
"What in Maou's name?!" she cried out. 'Could Ise…oh please no.'
As Yui slumped down onto her bed, she let out a tired sigh. 'Today has been quite the day,' she thought in exasperation. Thankfully she had a day off and she was going to make full use of it. The first order of business was contemplating on whether or not to call and say good night to Issei.
On one hand, he would probably enjoy being called and told goodnight. On the other hand, it would result in a misunderstanding if she called; she just knew that it would.
'Geez,' she thought as she rubbed her forehead to soothe her oncoming frustration, 'It's just a simple phone call. It's not like I'm asking him to…to…to…' Her face blushed heavily to the point where her complexion matched a strawberry; this resulted in her shaking her head side to side to clear away the 'indecent' thoughts that plagued her mind. 'What am I thinking?' the girl thought in embarrassment.
Her attention then shifted to a small picture frame that was in the shape of a cat. Inside the frame was a picture of her and Issei at a younger age. The girl sighed once more. 'Why can't it be simpler?' And just before she could do anything else, she heard it.
A loud explosion that rung through her ears. Rushing over to her window, she noticed the huge smoke cloud and fire.
'What the…how did that even happen?!'
As he opened his eyes, Issei felt his back burning in utter pain. He then noticed why: he was leaning against a bent lamppost. Looking down, the pervert noticed that Lala was still wrapped in his arms, her eyes closed and face scrunched up.
It was then that the memories came flooding back. The red head had thrown the tanker down to the ground. It exploded upon impact with the ground. The shockwave sent both Issei and Lala flying forward into a lamppost. Quickly thinking, the boy turned his body around so that his back would absorb most of the impact.
'At least I know why the lamppost is bent,' he thought sardonically.
Letting out a tired and pain filled sigh, the devil noticed that his wings were out. Thank the devil lords that he was able to bring them out. Now if he could only use them to fly. 'At least they helped slow me down…hopefully.'
The pervert then felt the girl in his arms shift around causing him to look down and see that Lala was opening her eyes. The first thing the girl did was look up at Issei, her eyes filled with concern. The second thing she did was wrapping her arms around his neck and hugging him closely, eliciting a small yelp of pain from the pervert. Pulling back, a small tear almost seemed to be ready to form as Lala said, "I-I'm sorry! You got hurt protecting-"
However, the girl was cut off as Issei patted her on the head and giving a small smile. "Don't worry about it. You're safe and right now that is what matters-CRAP!"
Confused by his words, Lala trailed his vision to see the two suited men walk right out of the raging inferno, without a single singe or burn on them. Deciding that now was the best time to run, the pink haired girl grabbed Issei's hand, pulled him up to his feet, and took off running, with the pervert stumbling behind her.
The red head looked behind them at the carnage they had just created. He then sent his partner a look before saying, "You think anyone will notice?"
His partner just stared at him.
"Yeah, you're right. I mean, according to our research, this happens all the time in this part of Earth."
Issei bent over forward as he tried to gasp for air. He had just gotten done being pulled by Lala for about a few blocks before the two finally stopped. The brown haired boy had a hard time keeping up with the alien, who mind you has an incredibly strong hold, and had to push himself to keep from stumbling.
[BOOST!]
'Not! Now!' the boy thought exasperatingly. Right now, the two of them were hiding out in the park; hopefully this would be the time they lose-
"Found you!"
Perhaps Issei should stop tempting fate. Turning around to face the two men, the pervert stumbled his way in front of Lala before asking, "Don't…you guys…ever…give up?"
The red head sighed as he looked at the boy in front of him. "Look at what you're doing princess. Now stopping running away and come home this instant!"
Lala pouted angrily at the man before putting her foot down. "No! I'm not going home!"
Nodding at her response, Issei said, "Yeah, you heard her. She's not…going…back…home?" The pervert then turned around and looked at Lala confusingly and asked, "Um, what do they mean by 'running away'?"
Lala closed her eyes as she replied, "I ran away from home because my father is forcing all these suitors onto me and telling me to marry one of them! I'm sick of it!"
The brown haired boy took a minute to process that before turning back around and assuming his former position. "Yeah, you heard her!" he exclaimed once more, "She doesn't want to go back home! And if you want to get to her, you have to go through me!"
Hearing this, Lala's expression took on a surprised look before she smiled at the boy. Her face then became determined as she pushed Issei behind her and said, "No Ise, I'll finish this fight!" She the produced a cell phone like device from her pocket and held it out in front of her.
Upon seeing the device, both men's faces turned to utter fear. "It's the princess' D-Dial!"
'Princess? D-Dial?' the devil thought in confusion. However, before he could think of anything else, he watched as Lala hit a button on her cell phone causing a bright light to come from the screen.
Then, right above them, a giant mechanical octopus of sorts appeared. It has a large spherical head with tiny tentacles hanging right underneath it. It bore a swirl on its forehead with four small arrows on the outside forming a diamond of sorts. If Issei could describe the metal behemoth it would be overbearing.
Seeing the giant mecha both men's face turned completely white. "It's one of her inventions! Make a run for it Smutts!" The two then proceeded to turn tail and run. However…
"Alright, go Go-Go Vaccum-kun!" Lala declared, pointing at the two retreating aliens, "Suck them up!"
The octopus mecha then activated, sucking everything in front of it into its mouth. As the two suit wearing aliens tried to get away, the ground they stood on began to get sucked up. Then, Maul accidentally tripped, which caused Smutts to fall on him, which led to the two being sucked up by the mecha, crying out as it happened.
As he watched the metal monster go to work, Issei's face gained a look of awe. "That…is really awesome!" And indeed it was awesome to see; to be this close to something that was only possible (until recently) to see in a sci-fi manga or movie was just stunning.
However, that feeling did not last very long as Issei began to noticed that the device was continuing to suck up everything, and not just what was in front of it, but also what was around it. Feeling a bit worried at what could possibly happen to him, Issei said, "Um, OK Lala, you can turn it off!"
As she looked at the device in the air, Lala cupped her chin in thought. "I wonder," she began as she observed her invention, "How do I turn this off?"
"Wait-YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO TURN IT OFF?!" Issei cried out in terror. The pervert could then feel his feet lift off the ground causing him to grab the nearest object that was planted into the ground.
That, unfortunately, began to be lift into the air by the powerful suction ability of the octopus mecha as well. As he neared the impending doom that was the octopus, Issei lifted his arm that bore the Boosted Gear behind him and formed a small red orb in front of his hand. "DRAGON SHOT!" He then punched the orb as hard as he could, sending it right into a collision course with the device. Upon contact with the Go-Go Vaccum-kun, the attack caused the device to explode, sending everything it had sucked up flying everywhere.
This meant that Issei was no longer in danger of being sucked up. However, this meant there was nothing holding him up in the air which caused him to fall from twenty feet in the air right onto the ground. Screaming all the way down, the pervert landed belly flop style onto the ground, eliciting a grunt of pain.
Landing next to the grounded pervert, Lala nervously laughed as she rubbed the back of her head. "Sorry," she began, "It's just that was one of my earliest inventions and I just couldn't remember how to turn it off." His response was a raised hand giving her a thumb up, signaling that it was alright. Her face then shifted from nervous to serene joy as she continued saying, "But thank you Ise. Thank you so much for sticking up for me."
Pushing himself off the ground, Issei stood himself up on two shaky legs before sending the girl a smile. "It's fine. I mean, you should have a choice in this kind of decision right? I was just doing what I felt was right." The devil then looked around and noticed a distinct lack of suits. "Those two must have gotten blown away when I blew up that device."
Nodding at his words, Lala looked over the carnage her mecha had created before laughing once more. "It's fine. I'm sure those two won't be a problem anymore!"
"So…will you be fine on your own?"
Turning back to face the boy, Lala nodded cheerfully. "I believe so! I may not look like it, but I can handle myself pretty well!"
His face holding his feelings of concern, Issei asked, "Are you sure? My offer from before still stands."
"I'll be fine! But…I'd like to have that offer open."
Smiling once more, Issei pointed his thumb at himself before declaring, "Hey, if you ever need any help, just find me and I'll do everything I can to help."
Returning his smile at full force, the pink haired girl nodded as she replied, "OK!"
"Well," Issei began, "I better head hoooooom…" He never finished his sentence as his body gave up on him and he fell forward…
Face first into Lala's boobs.
Looking down at the boy who was face planting her breasts, Lala asked, "Do you need some help?"
"…Yes," was the muffled response.
Issei yawned as he walked down the streets.
Looking at the devil with concerned eyes, Asia asked, "Are you alright Ise-san?"
Shaking her head, the two's master replied, "He should have thought about that before going on a midnight jog last night."
Moaning at his master's response, Issei thought back to the events of the previous night: his meeting with Lala, the chase scene, Lala's revelation, her invention, his counter attack to stop said invention, and finally Lala dropping him off at his house. He had tried to sneak in through his window, but Rias was sitting on his bed with her arms crossed and an accusing glare. Thankfully he was so tired that he faint once more; although this time his face hit the floor and not something soft. Deciding to go easy on him, Rias had pulled him into his bed and held him throughout the entire night. She was still upset when morning came.
As he thought back on last night, his thought went back to Lala. She said that she would be alright on her own, but he couldn't help but worry about her. She has the same kind of innocence that Asia has and this is an entirely new planet for her, some place she's never been; he hoped that she would be safe and come to him when she needed help.
"Um...Issei."
Turning around, the pervert looked at his younger brother, who felt that the ground was an interesting piece of artwork to stare at. Rito then looked up at the devil before looking downward once more. "I…I was wondering if we could talk."
Sensing what was about to happen, Rias turned towards the blonde and said, "Come on Asia, let's give these two some privacy." As if she knew what the red head was thinking, Asia nodded before following after the retreating senior.
Watching the two until they were gone, Issei turned back to his brother and asked, "OK, what do you want to-"
"Please help me confess!" Rito declared as he bowed to his brother.
This took Issei off guard for a couple of seconds before he recovered. Pointing to himself, Issei asked, "Y-you want me to help you confess?" The younger of the two nodded; his face completely red from embarrassment. "But...why-"
"I don't think I have the courage to do it and the universe being against me," Rito began, his face looking extremely saddened by his words, "I just feel if you could help me in a more personal way…" The boy trailed off, but his message was loud and clear: he wanted help and by Maou, Issei was gonna give it to him.
Cupping his chin, Issei began to think about what he could do to help his brother. He then snapped his fingers as a thought occurred to him. "I got it! Let's try to roleplay!"
Tilting his head in confusion, Rito looked at his brother as if he had grown another head. "Roleplay?"
"Yeah, I'll be you and you be Haruna-chan!"
"W-w-what?!" the orangish-brown haired boy stuttered. "B-but why-"
"Because, this way you can at least feel what it's like to hear those wrods. If you are the target, you can better understand what needs to be said." Processing his words, Rito nodded, understanding, or at least trying to understand where his brother was coming from. Nodding back to his brother, Issei closed his eyes and turned around. "Sairenji…no, Haruna-chan," he began, "I've had something to tell you for a while…"
As Rito watched his brother speak, he looked up in surprise to see a young lady float in between him and Issei. He was going to say something…
"I wanted to tell you, that ever since we met and talked, I've always felt something for you."
However, Issei had turned around and bowed right in front of Rito and the new girl as he said, "I love you and I want to be with you!"
The words hung in the air for a while before Issei opened his eyes and looked up…
…only to see the excited expression of Lala Deviluke, clad in her white clothing.
"LALA?!" the pervert exclaimed in utter shock. He had hoped to see her again soon, but this soon?
Lala then blushed as she clapped her hands together. "I knew you felt the same way!" she exclaimed in joy before jumping and latching onto his neck, "Alright then, I've decided!"
'Decided? Decided what,' was Issei's thoughts as he watched the girl hug him close.
"I've decided that you are the man I want to marry!"
Issei's mind shut down for a moment as he heard this…before it came back online and hit him full force. "EHHH?! MARRIED?! TO ME?!"
"Yep!" Lala said, "You are the one who understands me and I love you for that!"
"This is…um, this is, Rito a bit of help." However, as he looked over to try and get his brother's support, he noticed a distinct lack of younger brothers. Looking behind him, he noticed said brother running away from the scene at full force. "RITO?!"
"I'm sorry Issei!" Rito yelled over his shoulder, "I'll make it up to you! I swear it!"
He swore it? What was he supposed to do?
"Ooh, is that your little brother? When we get married, does that make me his big sister too?"
What the hell was he going to do?
AN: So, chapter four! WE are on a roll! Seriously, I don't think I've ever had an update schedule this fast. But anyway, here we end the first chapter of the To Love Ru story and begin the true combo. Lala has been introduced to Issei, a fight broke out, and Issei is now Lala's fiance. So, yeah, that's happened.
ARK. : Well I am glad that you are enjoying the story so far. I'm trying to make the best balance between the two and am glad that I seem to be doing it so far. And is that foreshadow on Yui? Who knows? And as for power managing, I'll have to wait before I get into a major fight, but at his current level, Issei would not be able to fight Zastin and win. Later volumes, more than likely, but not now.
Humlet: I'm glad that this is not what you really expected yet you still enjoyed it. I can't say much on Issei as I want to keep those secret and reveal it as it goes. And I hope you enjoyed this chapter as well.
Hellifrit: Aw, you are going to make me blush. Thanks for the fav and follow!
the Composcreator: Well, the difference between Issei and Rito are very high, especially once Gid gets his hands on some footage of Issei fighting a certain immortal Yakitori. And whether or not this is the manga or anime? I'm kind of cheating and taking elements from both in a way.
TheLastNanaya: Why is too bad Rito was not born as Riko...oh. Oh.
Well, I'll end it here. I hope to get the next chapter out soon. Thankfully, finals are done and I am on break, so I should have a lot of time on my hands! So please, leave a review, go check out my other stories, and I will see you all in the next chatper! See ya!
12/22: Update, I have gotten myself a beta and this chapter has been edited. Thanks very much dude! In any case, happy holidays!
