Chapter 10: A Day in Hell
It was a beautiful day in Kuoh on a warm spring Saturday. A couple of days pass after the trip to the familiar forest. Both Tron and Don came back with their new companions along with Asia. After Don finished replacing Issei's limbs back, a sprite blue dragon came down to the nun accepting her as her master and she named the sprite dragon Raisei. The little dragon fired bolts of electricity at the Issei showing his hatred to the pervert.
Don brought all his new companions home and they adjusted to it smoothly and got along with Don's other pals too. Tiamat got adjusted to her new home as well despite sharing a room with Kalawarner. Thanks to Rias, Tiamat was able to enroll Kuoh as a third year since her human form appears to be around Tron's age. Tiamat got along with the group except for Issei because of Ddraig.
Currently, Tron and Stark were walking down the street. Stark was wearing his usual attire while Tron wore his work uniform.
Tron loosen his tie before taking a deep breath, "It's good to be out of there."
"Agreed", Stark nodded before fixing his eyepatch, "Shame that Don just started his shift a couple of hours ago."
The two remembers the message Don got to perform at some restaurants first before going to the club to start off the night. He agreed to the request went in early.
"It's unfortunate, but the test will be fine without his expertise."
"Indeed."
"Are you sure you want to be the test subject, my liege?"
"I am. I trust your skills completely and the chances of you failing are extremely low."
"Very well, I shall not disappoint."
Meanwhile, Rias and her peerage were walking down a street with Sona and her peerage. Rias decided that the ORC will spend the day at Tron's house instead at the club. Sona and her peerage were invited over to see Stark's latest invention. The groups were having small talks with each while the Kings were engage in their own conversation.
"What is this new invention Stark created this time?" Rias asked her childhood friend.
Sona smirked, "Sorry Rias, but you just have to wait and see. I can assure you that it will definitely as you say blow your mind."
"You're quite convinced, aren't you?"
"I am."
The Devils finally reach their destination and was about to knock on the door when it slid open for them.
"Welcome home Mast- Wait a second."
Standing before the Devils was none other than Kalawarner dress in a sexy maid's outfit. It was a traditional French maid's outfit, but it revealed much of her cleavage and her skirt was extremely short. Issei drools at the sight unaware Asia was about to shed tears of jealously. Koneko detected his perverseness and nut punched him.
While Issei fell to the ground, Rias crosses her arms and narrow her eyes at her rival, "What are you wearing?"
She models the outfit in front of them with a smirk, "Oh this, I was planning on showing Tron-sama for saving me. Who knows, maybe he will have his way with me~.""
"Like Tron-kun will be seduced by something like that" Rias huffed with her arms cross.
"Perhaps on you, but on me he will be."
"As if he will be drawn to an old hag like you!" Rias retorted.
"At least I don't bark like a little Chihuahua!" the Fallen Angel snapped back with the same level of anger.
The two soon developed a dark aura around them with the urge to kill each other burning in their eyes. Some of the group back away from the two while others either nervously chuckle or sigh.
"Enough you two!" The group looks inside to see Tiamat with her arms cross and glaring at them. "Tron will be arriving soon and I am confident that he doesn't want to see his home turn into a battle field. So calm down before I'll make you."
Kalawarner and Rias exchange one last glare with each other before backing off. The two knows that they had no chance of fighting the Dragon King and not to incur a dragon's wrath. Tiamat nodded in please for their cooperation.
"What are you doing here, Rias?" The group turned to see Tron and Stark standing behind them.
"I decided to have the club visit you today. Also, Sona informed me about Stark's latest invention and I want to see what it is" she replied with a confident smile causing the Gladiator to roll his eyes.
"Fine, but give us a few minutes to get ready" Tron said receiving a nod from her.
Akeno noticed a certain someone was missing among the Cons, "Where's Don-kun?"
"Working."
"Oh... That's a shame. I was hoping we could spend quality time together... alone~" she answered with a hand on her red cheeks.
Her tone brought out different reactions from the group. Tron and Stark just stared at her weirdly unable to determine what she was thinking while Rias simply smiled at her best friend. Koneko simply glared at her sempai knowing what she was thinking which causes Sona's Peerage and Kiba to back away from her. Issei was down on his knees sulking in jealously over Akeno's interest in Don with Asia trying to cheer him up.
A few minutes later in Stark's lab, everyone has gathered together as Stark was making a few final touches. Tron was in his causal outfit with his arm bracer on standing before the device and Kalawarner change out of her maid outfit to her usual. The device was a large mechanical structure that had an unfinished circular ring hanging within. The device's structure resembles much like a gate. Stark was on a terminal typing away. The group was in awe at the structure and grew excited.
"Everything is ready."
Tron nodded with please before giving Stark the go, "Activate the portal."
Stark quickly tap a few buttons causing a circular green vortex to appear within the ring. The supernatural were in awe while Tron stepped forward while Stark examined the status of the machinery.
"All green and no signs of fluctuation, you may proceed."
"Good."
"So this device will allow anyone to be transported anywhere in the world?" Saji asked the scientist.
"Affirmative."
"I have to admit this is quite impressive" Rias admitted with nods of agreement from the other Devils. Despite her kind having some superior traits, the humans make up with their cleverness and imagination of their technology.
Issei was busy sitting on the sides with the others while Rias along with Kalawarner and Tiamat were speaking to Tron. They wanted to make sure he was prepared for anything since Tron will be entering the portal to test its transportation alone. Sona and her group were speaking with Stark asking more questions about his invention. In Issei's hands was a soda can he was currently drinking. He took a quick sip before letting his head fall after staring at his sempais.
"What do they have I don't?"
"What, Issei-san?" Asia asked while the others look down at him.
"Tron and Stark-sempai! What do they have that get girls so interested in them!? My dream is to become the Harem King, but it's being taking away by them and Don-sempai! Will someone please tell me what I am doing wrong!?"
"You don't want to know" Mittelt answered with nods of agreement from Raynare and Koneko.
"It's a huge list."
"...And your perverted behavior is at the top of the list." This causes the Pawn to have a rain cloud hang over his head in shame.
"Ano... Issei-san, I c-could be a..." Asia replied with burning cheeks. She was twirling her index fingers together unable to make eye contact with the Pawn. The group could see how hard she was trying to get Issei's attention and wonder how long until he realizes Asia likes him.
"What's up Asia?"
"N-Nothing!"
"If you want, I can be a member" Kiba suggested hoping to cheer him up. Instead, the Pawn to shoot right up in rage and glare at the Knight.
"Hell no! I am straight not gay Kiba! Don't ever say something like that again! I'm only interested in women and their breasts!"
As Issei went on and on about his fetish of the female body, Tron decides to enter the portal to continue the experiment. During his speech, Issei accidently threw his drink to the side without realizing and was heading straight towards the terminal. Stark didn't detect it until the liquid splatter all over the terminal causing an electrical surge. The surge made the equipment go haywire for a moment before a giant explosion from the ring push everyone back. The smoke cleared up after a few seconds to reveal the bridge which was damage and pieces were out of place. A certain Devil Heiress detected a missing piece in the image.
"What happen!? Where is Tron!?" Rias shouted in concern.
Stark got up and hurried to exam the terminal. Sadly, it causes him to narrow his eyes, "Your Pawn has fry the system with his drink and I don't know if Tron got sent to the coordinates I put in."
Everyone stared at the pervert who was scratching the back of his head, "Um... sorry?" Stark quickly turned his attention at Issei who quickly gulped.
"I am extremely tempted to dissect and conduct numerous experiments on you right now", Stark stated causing the Pawn to quiver behind Asia, "Unfortunately, I must devote all my efforts into repairing the space bridge and finding Tron. Tiamat."
The Dragon King picks up the pervert from behind the collar. "Don't worry I'll make sure he stay out of the way after I finish with him."
"Just try not to damage the area."
"I'll try."
"W-wait! Why are you listening to Stark-sempai!? I thought you were Tron-sempai's familiar!" Issei shouted trying to break free.
"I am, but I must ask permission from either him or his friends to get to you and Stark gave me it." Issei's face pales as Tiamat evilly grins, "So get ready to feel the dragon's fury."
Tiamat drags the pervert out of Stark's lab preparing for a beat down he'll never forget. The group wanted to stop it, but Tiamat's wrath was something not to trifle with and they know never to mess with a dragon. Sona quickly faces Stark with a look of determination.
"Is there anything we can do to help?"
"I need to examine everything and make a list of what I need. I will require you to obtain them as quickly as possible."
The group gathers around the scientist to listen what he needed to fix the portal. Rias glance at the bridge and brought her hands together as she look down with close eyes.
"Please be okay Tron-kun."
With Tron, he softly groans for a bit before getting on his knees. He quickly rubs his aching head as he got up to see he was in a forest. Last thing he remembers was being blasted away by an explosion from behind. It didn't take him long to notice something was wrong. Everything around him was perfectly normal except for the sky which was purple. He knew right away he wasn't on Earth anymore, but he wasn't on another world since he could breathe easily. So where was he? Wasting no time, he hurried through the forest hoping to find some sign of civilization. Luck would have it, he quickly stumbles upon one.
"That city will be a good place to start."
Tron hurried through the forest to get into the city only to notice something unusual. The citizens of this city flew around with bat-like wings similar to the one Rias and her peerage has. Tron quickly realizes that he was in the Underworld. Rias told him about her home a few times and how it vastly different than the human world and her description of it matches exactly where he was. A small smirk formed on his face seeing a new potential use of the Space Bridge. He has to inform Stark of this development.
Sadly, he does not have a way out nor have the means of communicating with him. For now, he must wait. Since he was here, Tron decided it would be best to recon this area just in case. He explores the city to see that it has many similar shops like the human world has. His attention was capture by an eruption of cheers from his right. Quickly turning to that direction he saw humongous crowd standing in front of the stage. He went in a little closer only to change his expression to a confused one.
"What in the name of the Pits?"
Standing on stage was a young beautiful girl with long, black hair tied in twin tails and had violent eyes. Her pink outfit border line on a costume since it resembles some kind of magic girl. In her hands was a long pink wand which had a giant yellow star on it. She has a childlike body albeit with large breasts. She made different poses along with a peace sign to the crowd which causes her breast to bounce as well. An explosion occurred of giant cheers and cameras flashing like crazy from the crowd.
Tron gave a 'what the hell' stare for a brief moment before rolling his eyes. He reminded himself that carbon base beings are complicated creatures. Seeing he has no point for staying, he decided it was best to leave. His departure was cut short when the girl on stage spoke.
"Okay everybody we finally reach the end, but before you go I have a very special announcement. One lucky winner will have the honor of being a guest star on Miracle Levia-tan!"
The crowd roared in joy while Tron just stared at them with a raise an eyebrow, "Is every single being on this planet blinded by lust?"
"Okay the first one who can grab my wand will be the winner. But be careful, it won't be that easy to catch."
Her words greatly inspired the crowd while Tron just roll his eyes in annoyance. Seeing enough of this, Tron decided to leave to resume his task of finding a way home.
"Okay are you ready!? One, two, three!"
The girl threw her wand into the air descending down to the crowd. People raise their hands to the sky climbing over each other hoping to get the wand; however, it stops in midair. The crowd blinks at the floating wand wondering what will happen next. Soon the wand flew around like a bird from overhead then passing through the crowd. Devils scatter around crashing into each other to avoid the wand. It went about for a couple of minutes before the wand flew out away from them.
Unknown to Tron, the wand was heading directly straight towards him. Devils were shouting to him to dodge, but he did not heed them. He came to a halt for a moment as the wand was getting closer. The girl on stage was about to call it off, but froze at what she saw. All around the crowd witness Tron swiftly turned around and caught the tip of the wand with his bare hands. Both his palms held it firmly on the sides of the yellow star as the wand began to settle down.
Tron softly growled in frustration, "Great... Just what I needed, attention."
The girl spread her wings flew over with a huge smile, "Congratulation sir, you have caught my wand and for that you will be a guest star on Miracle Levia-tan!"
Tron simply stared at the energetic girl before handing back her wand, "Not interested."
His words made everyone froze while the girl in front of him just simply blinks. The Magical Girl was more surprise than anybody in the crowd. It has been a while since someone said no to her. Any normal Devil would say yes to be on her show or to her. She can't count the number of requests she received from people to be a part of it. To put an end of it, she decided to hold this special event to do it and people gather like wild fire. She took her wand back and looks up at the winner.
"May I ask why, Winner-tan?"
"I don't have time nor the patience to be on some kids' show."
Cries of anger filled the air forcing Tron and the Magical Girl to look at the source which was the men in the crowd.
"HOW DARE YOU CALL IT SOME KIDS' SHOW!"
"MIRACLE LEVI-TAN IS FANTASTIC SHOW!"
"YOU INSULTED THE GREAT LEVAITHAN-SAMA! APOLOGIES NOW!"
Tron shifts his gaze back at the cosplayer, "Wait- she is one of the ruling Maous." Rias explained to him how her people were governed by four individuals who took the titles of Maou after the original were killed. He never expected the girl who is cosplaying to be one of the ruling heads. "Carbon-based lifeforms' logic is truly strange."
"HEY! APOLOGIES TO LADY SERAFALL NOW!"
"DO IT!"
"YEAH!"
"IF YOU DON'T THEN WE SHALL MAKE YOU!"
Growing tired of their complaining, Tron gave his usual commando glare at them, "Go ahead and try."
Basically, everyone in the crowd quickly back off from the intensity of his glare. Devils, Humans, they were all the same to Tron, a bunch of spineless cowards who barks more than they bite. Serafall, A.K.A the Magical Girl, was surprise to such intensity from the winner's glare and found it strange. Usually, a Devil would display a portion their power to silence people. It was strange to see this Devil not using it. Come to think of it, she couldn't feel an iota of his Demonic powers at all nor anything else for that matter. What was he then? Her thoughts were push aside when Tron started to walk away.
Serafall quickly got into her pose with a peace sign and a giant smile, "Well that's all for today folks! Please stay tune for next week episode of Miracle Levi-tan~! See you all next time~!" In a flash, Serafall chase after the Gladiator leaving her fans behind.
*A few minutes later*
"Hold on a second, Winner-tan!"
Tron turned around to see Serafall running straight towards him. He waited until she was in reach to ask his question, "What is it?"
"Why do you leave all the sudden?"
"I already told you, I don't have time and I have more important things to do." Serafall simply stare at him before going on her tippy toes to have a little closer look at Tron's face even though there was a height difference. "What?"
"You're not from around here are you? You're definitely not a Devil since you don't know me and I don't sense any Demonic power nor any other type of power from you either. Are you a human?" Tron went on guard just in case only to have Serafall giggles, "Relax. I'm not going to harm you. Though I must admit, I am surprise to see a living human in Hell of all places and you are aware of Devils."
"Let just say certain situations and people reveal to me there more to this world than meet the eye."
"I see." An awkward moment of silence fell between them for a brief moment before Serafall broke it. "Anyway, what's your name cutie?"
Seeing he has no other option and the circumstances, he decided to play along, "Tron Omega."
"Nice meet you Tro-tan! I'm Serafall Leviathan, but you can call me Sera-tan!"
He stared at energetic Maou for a brief moment wondering why she said his name that way, but pushes it aside. "What is it that you want?"
A giant smile spread across her face as she twirl for a second and made a cute opening pose, "Accept your prize and be a honor guest on my show, Miracle Levi-tan~! We can work around your schedule to make time for you and we can ensure that you don't have to say much. What do you say~?"
Despite only doing it to put an end of the requests, she doesn't mind having a guest on for one episode. She had always considered adding a new cast to her show sometime in the future, but never this soon. Serafall prefers to recruit someone who is not known in the Devil community to keep it interesting for the viewers and Tron was a perfect candidate. Unfortunately for her, Tron gave her the opposite answer.
"No."
"Please!" she pleaded with cutest puppy dog eyes she could make grasping her wand with both hands. Sadly, it wasn't enough.
"No."
"Pretty please!"
"No."
"Pretty, pretty, pretty please!"
"No."
"PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY, PRETTY PLEASE!"
"NO!"
Her puff her cheeks to forge a pouty expression, "Mou~, why not!?"
"I have no time to deal with this and I need to find a way out of the Underworld since I'm trap here." Tron knew exposing this information would be risky, but given the situation he doesn't have a choice. Also, his instincts were telling him that she wasn't the kind who willingly accepts no without a good reason and he always trusts his instincts.
Serafall calmed down in order to tilt her head to the right displaying her confusion, "Why? Can't you just use a transportation circle?"
"Sadly, we were testing it when a certain someone causes it to... fail." Tron clutches a hand into a fist swearing to himself for whoever did this is going to get a beating so bad that the person will beg to God to save them.
Serafall places a finger on her right cheek for a moment until an idea pop in her head, "We can work out a deal."
Tron raises an eyebrow, "A deal?"
"Yes, I will used my magic circle to send you back home, but under two conditions" Serafall said sweetly with a two finger hand sign.
"And that will be?" he asked still suspicious of her true motives.
"The first is to accept your prize of being an honor guest on my show, Miracle Levia-tan!"
Tron could only clutch a hand into a fist in anger knowing he had no other option. He has no experience in the mystic arts and no form of contacting Stark to get out of Hell. Agreeing with Serafall's terms was the only and logical solution at the moment. "Fine, and the second?"
Serafall's smile grew before wrapping an arm around his, "You spend the rest of the day with me, the famous sexy, cute Magical Girl Sera-tan!
Tron was a bit puzzle at her second condition, but he shrugged it off, "Fine let's get this over with."
"Yippee! Let's go~!" Serafall quickly grabbed his arm and aim her wand in a certain direction dragging him along. Tron curses the Pits that he had to do this, but he will endure to get back home.
Back in the human world, Stark was on his back examining the cords of a unit. Next to him was Tsubasa who was assisting him by handing him the tools he needed from a toolbox next to her. Near them were Rias and her peerage along with Tiamat. Asia was still healing Issei's injuries from Tiamat. The Fallen Angels along with Sona and the rest of her peerage were out grabbing the materials Stark needs to repair the bridge. It's been a couple of hours since Tron entered the portal and Rias was worry sick for him. So much she was pacing back and forth in a straight line over and over again.
Tiamat stared at the concern Heiress and sighed, "Rias, you need to calm down."
"I know Tiamat, but I can't."
Rias could not keep herself calm at all. The thoughts of Tron being hurt were filling her mind as she hastens her pacing. She knew Tron was strong, but he was still human. What if he was thrown into a harsh snowstorm, inside a volcano or the middle of a desert. These ill thoughts continue to plague her mind as she pray to the Maos for his safety.
"Phillips Screwdriver."
"Here" Tsubasa handed the tool to Stark's open hand. Stark loosen a couple of bolts and put the cover to the side. The Rook of Sona handed him a flashlight which he nodded thanks. He examine the inside of the terminal to see if the wires still okay.
"How are the wires?" Tsubasa asked as she handed a pair of pliers to him.
"Some of them I will have to change, but the rest are okay" he answered while he clips off the bad wires. He came out of the terminal and handed back the pliers to Tsubasa, "You sure are knowledgeable with tools."
"My dad is carpenter so he taught me a few things."
"Indeed."
His answer made the Rook softly giggle. He was confuse to what she found funny, but reminded himself that human behavior is quite the enigma. The conversation between the two came to an end when the door opened up revealing everybody else each holding the parts Stark needed.
"We got everything you need Stark" Sona said as she place the materials next to him.
"I appreciate your assistance everyone. Now I can fully repair the damage, but we need one more piece." The scientist looks over to the ebony Queen of Rias, "Akeno, can you go retrieve Don from work?"
The priestess tilts her head in confusion at his request, "Of course, but why?"
"We need his computer skills to find Tron."
"Really? I thought you have good computer skills" Ruruka wonders as she kneels down next to him.
"I do, but Don's skills are far superior to my own. He is our best chance of tracking down Tron."
"Understood, Akeno go bring Don here immediately. Take Koneko, Asia and Issei with you" Rias ordered which her Queen quickly nodded and headed out the door with fellow members.
Stark could tell that the uneasiness has not diminish and sigh, "Trust me Rias, Tron can deal with anything that comes his way."
"I can't deal with this anymore!"
At the moment Tron was sitting outside at a table eating a sandwich while Serafall was drinking some tea. For the past couple of hours, the Leviathan took him the Gladiator to numerous places like cloth stores and an arcade before stopping at a café to eat. Each store they went to, he received a sorts of looks from the Devil community ranging from lustful stares to hateful glares. Folks were enrage that he was hanging with a Maou since it was consider a great honor, but he didn't really see it as a honor. He found it extremely annoying especially Serafall's hyperactive personality. The amount of energy Serafall has is beyond what he calculated and was proving difficult to endure.
Tron took a bite of his sandwich thinking of one particular human the Autobots kept around, "How did Optimus and his team do it?"
"Enjoying your sandwich Tro-tan?" she politely asked.
"I am."
"That's great~! This place is one of my favorite café in the world! They make the best food and tea around. You can order as much as you want."
"A generous offer, but I'm fine with what I have."
Serafall chuckles in amusement while Tron simply roll his eyes. Things were quiet between the two when a stampede of footsteps captured the duo's attention. The two watch as swarm of Devils went into an open area where other Devils have gather.
"What's going on over there?"
Serafall gently put down her cup to answer, "Oh that. A few months ago, an object fell from the sky and crash landed here. To our surprise it was a sword. Many wonder how and why a sword could enter Hell and not be destroyed from the crash. Curious, we tried to get it out but it wouldn't budge and became quite an attraction for the community. Countless Devils tried to pull the blade out of the ground and every single one had failed including the other three Maous and myself."
"Hmm" Tron hums as he faces the growing crowd.
Serafall detects his sudden interest and leans forward with a smile, "Interested?"
"I won't deny that I am intrigue to see this powerful weapon, but I highly doubt I'll be able to reach it with that crowd."
His words amuse the Maou, "Leave that to little ol' me~."
Her giggling made Tron looks at her weirdly. He couldn't understand why she is so happy all the time nor to how she became Maou. The answer to those questions will have to wait for another time. Once they were finish and paid the bill, Serafall guided Tron over to attraction where the Devils step aside for the Maou. Whispers could be heard from the crowd on Tron's relationship with Serafall. This made the Gladiator roll his eyes in annoyance. It wasn't long until Tron saw the blade in the ground only to have his eyes widen in shock.
"It can't be... The Dark Star Saber."
"Step right up and try to pull this weapon" a young yet familiar voice called out to the crowd forcing Tron to search for the owner.
"You think you have the bearings to pull this sword from it imprisonment? Then come right up and give it a shot!" another familiar voice shouted.
Tron found the owners of the voices and saw two young fair skinned boys dress in hip hop style clothing. Also, they both appeared to be around 5'1 feet tall and around 14 years old. One had an open short sleeve purple and blue plaid shirt with a white t-shirt, dark blue baggy jeans and matching color sneakers. He had a dark blue handkerchief tied around his left wrist and a long silver chain necklace with a purple insignia of the Decepticons. His eyes were red and his hair was brown and it was a little spiky.
The one next to him had same color eyes, but the rest of him was different. He wore an open red and black plaid sleeveless shirt with a black t-shirt. His baggy jeans were black and his sneakers had the same color style like his plaid shirt. Around his neck was a necklace which has the insignia of the Decepticons and he wore dark red wrist band on each wrist. His hair was jet black with little shades of dark red.
Despite the hip hop appearances, Tron made a connection to two particular individuals he have not seen in a very long time as he walks over to them. "Frenzy, Rumble?"
Tron narrow his eyes at the young boys who stared back at him. The two were on guard because some random stranger knew their actual names. Usually, the two would beat any suspicious guy who just went up to them, but something was preventing them. Their souls were telling them not to fight him and not to aggravate him. Their minds quickly made the connection of the only being in the universe who can make them feel this way.
"Lord Megatron?"
Tron identified their expression and softly nodded confirming their suspicion. As Serafall came over glancing at the three cutely confuse. "You three know each other?"
"They are the younger brothers of a good friend of mine" Tron slightly lied to her. The short Cons look at each other after realizing what their Master meant as small smirks spread across their faces.
Serafall tilts her head to the right while assuming his friend may be a Devil, "Really?"
"Yes", Tron look back at the short teens, "Enlighten me to what you two are doing?"
"We decided to be sponsors for the attractions since we found it first and ensure that people will not be fighting over each other to take a shot at it" Frenzy explains with his hands behind his head.
"I see."
"So are you here to try it out?"
"You bet ya~!" Serafall answered causing the twin to look at her. "Tro-tan here wants to try lifting that sword up for himself! Who knows maybe he shall be one to free from its imprisonment."
The twins blink for a second before facing their master, "Tro-tan?"
Tron gave them a glare telling them not to ask which they acknowledge. Rumble steps aside with his brother to provide a path to the sword.
"Go ahead."
Tron went over to the saber and stared at for a moment. To think the Dark Star Saber was here all this time in hell of all places. He assumed that it fell down to Earth back in his universe. Guess fate had different plans. He slowly grasps the handle with his right hand capturing the crowd's full attention. Flowing to into his body the power of Chaos as he slowly pulls the blade out. Soon he held the blade in his hands declaring to everyone it belongs to him now.
"I knew he can do it~!" Serafall cheerfully yell while jumping up and down in joy as the twins smirked with enjoyment.
For the Devils they were having a hard time believing that this random stranger was able to pull it out with ease while the Maous couldn't even move it. Questions of who he was linger in their minds and wonder if he was a member of Serafall's Peerage. Both Tron and Serafall decided to leave with Rumble and Frenzy following them.
"We still have some time left, let's do a couple of things then I'll send you home."
"Fine, but you have to send me along with them" Tron added as he points to the twins. He knew this was a gamble to ask her for something extra, but he'll be damned if he leaves two of his kind behind.
"Sure no problem~!"
"This is where he works?"
"Yes Issei" Akeno answered as the group stood before the Ruby Dragon Club.
"How did Don-sempai get a job here?" Asia asked curiously while she examines the structure.
"Don-kun and his pals know the owner of the mall and he gave them jobs. He gave Don-kun a DJ job here at this club."
"... Also, Don-chan is really good at making music" Koneko commented surprising the 2nd years. It was extremely rare for them to hair the 1st year complimenting someone. If she say Don is good then he must be good.
They enter inside the building where they were greeted by loud thumping music and colorful flashes of light. All around older adolescent and above could be seen everywhere many down on the dance floor. Standing at the DJ set on stage was Don who was dress in casual with his headphones on.
The Devils got a little closer to the stage as Don was finishing the last part of the song. He added a mix of distortion with a few loud beats for the finish. The dancers cheers at his performance as he took his headphones. He quickly took his gear and went off the stage where he was greeted by a swarm of fangirls.
Don took out his phone to type out his answer which was asking the fangirls if they want something. Flood of questions and requests for his autographs as responses. Ever since he started working at the club, girls fly to him like crazy. It was starting to get annoying.
The leader of the fangirls steps forward with a lustful smile, "We just want to get to know you better Don-chan~. How about you come with us and we get real close~?"
The leader began to lower the collar of her shirt to show a good portion of her cleavage. Both Issei and Asia started to shiver all of the sudden from the dark auras of the Queen and Rook. They could feel the urge of killing the fangirls especially their sempai. A light bulb lit up changing Akeno's enraged face with a creepy smile. This caused the 2nd years to back away in fear while the Loli just looks at her. The priestess went over to Don and stood beside him gazing at the fangirls.
"Excuse me, but what do girls think you're doing?" she politely asking with a taste of venom in her voice. Everyone looks at her with different questions in their heads. The fangirls were wondering who she was while Don was wondering why she was here.
"Just getting friendly with Don-chan here... Who are you supposed to be?" the leader questioned with her arms cross.
A mischievous smile spread across Akeno's face before giving a quick peck on Don's left cheek and hugging his arm lovingly, "His girlfriend."
The fangirls fell silent unable to move while Don stared at the blushing Queen. Akeno giggled at the jaw dropping fangirls in enjoyment for crushing their dreams of getting close to Don. Asia gasped in shock while Issei was crying in jealousy over the relationship of his sempais. Koneko's eyebrow twitch at Akeno's action, but understood why she did it.
Akeno hug Don's left arm tightly as she rested her head on his shoulder, "My dear Donny-kun here likes his secrets and I'm one of them. He prefers not to talk about his personal life to others." Akeno notice the hatred in the fangirls' eyes of her stealing Don which only widen her smile. "I suggest you go flirt with someone else not my boyfriend, okay?"
"...Fine" the leader painfully growled in defeat.
"Thank you for your cooperation", the Queen drags her interest to the exit, "Come on Donny-kun~, we are going to be late for our dinner reservation."
Issei and the others quickly follow suit after Don punches out. Once the group was far enough, Issei let out his despair catching the group's attention.
"DAMN IT SEMPAI! HOW DID YOU SCORE A RELATIONSHIP WITH AKENO-SEMPAI!? HOW!? HOW!? WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME EITHER!?"
"... She was lying."
Issei's head went to white hair Rook, "What?"
"Akeno-sempai was lying. She's not in a relationship with Don-chan. She lied to help him get away from those crazy fans."
"Ara ara Koneko, could you have played along a little longer?" she playfully asks only to have a glare stating no from her. "Oh well, it's true Issei. I was simply lying about being his girlfriend to get those fangirls away from him."
The 2nd years just blink like idiots seeing how easily fool they were by Akeno's performance. It was extremely convincing performance like famous actors in movies. Little did they know, Akeno secretly wish that she was Don's boyfriend and hopes one day it will become a reality.
Don asks the Queen to why she was here and what was the emergency. She quickly explains what happen to Tron and how the Stark needed his skills to find him. Don faces the pervert who could only laugh awkwardly. Don gave a few signs stating he understood and let's go.
Later on, Serafall was getting the magical circle ready for Tron and his pals. The group went to a few more stores before it was time to leave. Serafall asks Tron where he wants to go and he gave her specific coordinates. She was surprise to hear Kuoh from him, but quickly concealed it.
"This should bring you guys back to Kuoh" Serafall said as the pink magic circle shine brightly with her symbol at the center.
Tron slightly nods, "I appreciate your assistance Serafall."
The Magical Girl puffed her cheeks as she cried while swinging her arms up and down, "Mou~, why won't you call me Sera-tan!?"
"I don't use honorifics."
"But wwwhhhyy!?"
"I don't" Tron softly growled at the Maou's complaining over him not calling her 'Sera-tan'.
"Mou~ alright. The circle is ready for you guys."
The Cons stood at the center of the circle as the circle slowly engulf the three. Serafall said goodbye to Tron as he responded back with till we meet again. His words spread the Magical Girl smile out as she promise they will meet again.
Back in Stark's lab, the two Decepticons were hard at work tracking down their master. The two have been at it for two hours straight and found nothing yet. The two knew that it was foolish to search blindly, but it was the only thing they could do at the moment. Their concentration was broken when pink light enters the room. It soon dims down revealing none other than their master.
"Tron, you're back, but how?"
"It's a long story Stark, but first I have a couple of old acquaintances to show you."
Both Don and Stark glanced at each other surprise from what they heard. They were curious to who they were since they haven't met any other members of their kind since they arrive here. Stepping forward, both Frenzy and Rumble reveal themselves to the two.
Don steps forward to look at the two recognizing them despite their human appearances. Frenzy and Rumble looks up at him and sense a strange connection with him. The two squinted their eyes before a ghostly image of a certain someone appeared around Don.
"Soundwave?"
Don nodded yes to them only to receive a surprising tackle hug from them. The impact was so strong that it forces Don to fall on his back. The older Cons were surprise to see such an action from the two, but given how long it been it made logical sense. Once Don pried them off of him, Stark asked his master what happen.
Tron explains how the explosion sent him into the Underworld where he encounter the little Cons and reacquired the Dark Star Saber. The two were surprise to see the blade in their master's hands once again and to hear that it fell into the Hell. Stark was especially pleased to hear that his portal is a success despite the malfunction. He then explains to Tron what cause the explosion and everything happen after that.
Tron rested the blade against the wall then turns to two returning members, "Now then, how did you two arrive here and in hell of all places?"
"Can't really say", Frenzy scratches the back of his head, "The last thing we remember were being thrown into the stasis pod back on the Ark when we got closer to the portal. It was only a few months ago that the two of us woke from our slumber."
"When we saw the sword and the carbon being coming, we deceived them into believing we were just playing a game and that this sword came out of nowhere" Rumble further explained.
"What about the pod?"
"Destroyed, Lord Megatron. We turn the entire thing into scrap as soon as possible. The only thing we kept is the data chip." Frenzy reaches into his pocket to pull out the chip before handing it to Stark.
Tron hummed for a moment before turning to his first lieutenant of his science division, "Stark, have you come up with an explanation?"
"A logical one, but not concrete. I surmised that the Dark Star Saber is responsible for deactivating the stasis pod and the timing of their awakening matches the time period when we arrive. For arriving here on this planet in this universe, they must have has some sort of outside help that guide the pod here. Probably the same ones who brought us here."
Tron narrows his eyes at his head scientist, "Are you implying they are Cybertronians?"
"It is the most logical assumption at the moment since those pods are design to follow a Cybertronian's beacon. The chances of crash landing and entering this universe are very slim. It is only logical to think there may be other Cybertronians here on this planet."
The Cons stood in silent asking themselves who were these Cybertronians. Were they Autobots or Decepticons? How did they get here? Where were they and why haven't they made contact with them yet? More importantly, how long have they been on this world?
"We shall double our efforts on finding these people. If they are ones responsible for bringing us here and transforming us into humans then they shall be the ones who can change us back."
The Cons nodded in agreement with their master when Stark remembers something important.
"Sir, Rias is waiting for you in the kitchen."
The two short confused Cons glance at each other while Tron raise an eyebrow, "Why is she still here?"
"She refused to leave until you come back while everyone else went home."
"*Sigh* I deal with her. Inform Rumble and Frenzy everything we know and construct fake identities for them."
"Yes sir."
Tron headed out the door straight to the kitchen. He finally reached his destination only to see Rias, Kalawarner and Tiamat deep in thoughts at the table. His footsteps attracted their attention to him causing the three to shift their heads over to him. Before he could ask what was wrong, he was tackle to the ground by a sudden red and blue blur.
"Tron/Master! You're back!" Rias and Kalawarner hugged him tightly pressing their bust against his body causing his face to burn red.
"Get off of me!" he shouted as he tried to pry them off.
Tiamat pulls the backs of the girls' collars lifting them off from her master. This allow Tron leap back on his feet and rubs his neck.
"I appreciate the help Tiamat."
"No problem Tron and it's good to see you unharmed."
"Indeed. It's been over five hours since you disappeared. Where were you?" Rias asked.
"It doesn't matter, I'm back and that's that."
The girls could tell that he didn't want to talk about and decided it was best to drop. Soon growled filled the room coming from them. The three couldn't resist the urge to blush in embarrassment.
Tron simply shakes his head as he places his hands on his sides, "Hold on, I wipe something up."
"Ara, a taste of Master's cooking" Kalawarner said sweetly licking her lips while Tiamat was looking forward to his cooking.
While the bluenettes assisted Tron by getting the ingredients he needs, Rias stared at the Gladiator with a grim expression realizing that time was running out and it won't be long until she will have to face her nightmare. She smiles softly focusing on the now and she shall worry about the future later.
Meanwhile in the Underworld, Serafall entered into a giant mansion where she was greeted by countless butlers and maids. She skipped pass them humming a happy tune until she stumble upon two individuals. One was a black haired man dress in a black suit and wore glasses next to him was an older version of her with straight hair and wore a violet dress. Both of them have black hair, but the man has blue eyes and the woman has violet eyes.
"Serafall, dear?" the woman called sounding a little concern.
"Hmm, yes mom?"
"Are you okay?"
"Of course, why do you ask?"
"Well", the man next to her mother rested a finger on his chin, "you seem happier than usual."
"I just have a really fun day that's all. *Yawn* Excuse me, but I'm going to bed."
As she skips along, her parents stared at each other in wonders. It was true that Serafall has an extremely positive behavior in general, but the way she skips and hums demonstrate a different level of joy. They couldn't resist the urge to wonder what made their daughter this way.
Serafall entered her room and crash onto her bed squealing in joy about the day she had. It was the most entertaining and fun day she had in a long time and it was thanks to Tro-tan. She swiftly pulled out the picture of her and Tron they took at a photo booth. It showed her hugging him from behind and their face near each other, but their expression were different. She gave her usual happy smile with a peace sign while Tron glared in annoyance with light pink cheeks. It's been a while since she had fun as being just plain Serafall, not Serafall the Leviathan. Her eyes gaze upon the Gladiator as her smile got wider.
He was rebellious and different from many men she met despite being a human. She recalled how the crowd was enrage at him for not bowing in respect to her and treated her more kindly. Not only that, he was able to pull out the sword even the Four Maous couldn't do. That alone shows he has great potential if he becomes a member of a Peerage. Also, he was a complete hotshot who didn't fall for her natural charms like most people do. It's a good thing she learn that he lives in Kuoh because now she has two reasons to visit.
"Hehehehe~, I see you soon Tro-tan."
The conclusion of season 1 is coming soon and second is on the way. Rumble and Frenzy are back with the Decepticons and ready to rock. I decided to show Serafall earlier to developed relation instead of just meeting her later on. Don't worry the next chapter will have Tron meeting Riser.
Some of you had some concerns about last chapter. The reason why I didn't show Raisei is because it would feel kind of repetitive to show that scene. I can safely assume that some of you want a break of seeing the same thing over and over again.
One of you think that I'm making Tron overpower, but I am not. If you watch the Prime series, recall the episode where Megatron fought the giant stone clones of Unicron. He was able to smash the stone head of one of them with nothing more than a single punch. This shows that his strength is immense for a normal Cybertronian. Also, this isn't the first time he fought something bigger than himself and fighting a dragon. He fought Predaking and in his time in the Pits he fought a giant alien monster by himself. Given the fact he fought for all his life and still alive, it is only logical that he is strong.
