Hello! This is Chapter 10, so to celebrate there'll be an omake at the end. The ending of last chapter is important as well, so remember that meeting. As of now, no one likes Viktor. So sad. Oh well. Lets start!

"Talking"

[Ddraig]

'Thinking'

Disclaimer: Own nothing but OCs


It was Tuesday morning, around 8:30. Viktor was lying in bed, thinking. Today was a school day, but he didn't plan to go, knowing that it wouldn't be a good idea since he almost killed the Devils that go there. Besides, he had other important things to do, like figure out what was wrong with Reiri and the strange transformation he had with Ddraig.

Viktor didn't know why Reiri seemed depressed last night and this morning. When he got up, she was still in her room. After knocking a few times, she'd just respond by saying she was tired. Viktor gave up after a while, deciding to go back to bed.

'People sure are complicated. They try to kill you for no apparent reason, are upset and don't say why, and try to make small talk when you just want to be left alone.'

[Maybe it's because your just awkward. Now, if your done with your social problems, I need to talk to you in your subconscious.]

'Alright.' Viktor took a few deep, slow breathes, lowering his heart rate until he felt drowsy. Soon, he fell asleep.


When Viktor opened his eyes, he saw that he was back on the small island made up entirely of pale yellow sand. Staring at him was Ddraig, taking up most of the space on the small island. The waves from the almost black water crashed into the island, the violent noise almost soothing for Viktor.

"Did you want to talk about that strange transformation from yesterday?" Viktor asked, looking out towards the ocean.

[Yes. I see you also noticed that your Balance Breaker had a some quirks.]

"Why? Was that not supposed to happen?" Viktor turned around to look at Ddraig, crossing his arms.

[The normal Balance Breaker should have been something similar to armor resembling a dragon. The color would've been like my scales, a bright and shiny red. Yours was not.]

"I don't remember much at all. The last thing I know that happened was you sounding strange. Your voice was demonic, yet pained. Everything is just blank after that."

[It seems that your unstable mind state along with your other Gear, Nacht Dominion, has affected me, maybe even begun merging.]

"Merging? I thought you said it was highly unlikely."

[Your Gear is different than all the others. It's a part of your genes. I don't know how the process will continue or the outcome. All I know is that it's started, proof being your Balance Breaker. See for yourself.]

Ddraig then turned his head to the side, smoke coming out of his jaw and nose. A low growling could be heard. Suddenly Ddraig bellowed out a stream of red fire, yet it was tainted with black. Afterwards, the fire began to take the form of a figure.

[This is your Balance Breaker.]

Ddraig blew the fire away. In its place was the figure, the tattered blood red cloak covering it, hood up. It arms were covered with scales similar to Ddraig, yet cracked. Tendrils protruded from its back.

"That...was me?"

[Yes. I tried stabilizing your mental state when you lost it, but it seems it also affected me. I...felt what you felt during your childhood.]

"Let's not talk about that." Viktor walked up to the Balance Breaker version of himself. It stared at him, following his every movement. Getting closer to it, Viktor reached out towards its helm, which appeared to be an actual dragon skull the closer he got. Grabbing the helm, he pulled it off. As soon as it was off, the entire figure dissolved into the air, disappearing. Viktor gave a small sigh, looking at the ground.

"Anything else I need to know?"

[It seems that it is just one form of your Balance Breaker. This one was merged with your first form, the one called Slender Man.]

"Does that mean that I'll have another Balance Breaker for the form I used to kill Doctor?"

[Most likely. You've only used it once, and that was in someone's mind. It might be a while.]

"I see. I don't want to though. It seems that it's more effective in completely destroying my enemies than the Slender Man form."

[It is. Having the ability to kill someone in their own head is dangerous. Do not forget you also have your other form.]

"Yeah, I remember. Something tells me it's special." Viktor looked around the rest of the island, thinking about what Ddraig said. 'So I have unlocked two of my forms for Nacht Dominion and a peculiar Balance Breaker for Boosted Gear.'

[People already named your first form as Slender Man. What'll you name your second?]

"I don't know. It's not important right now. I haven't used my powers or Washin a lot lately. I'll need to practice, especially since I'll most likely have people going after me now."

[Well, I believe there's a Kendo Club at your school. Other than that, you're in your own.]

"Really? Lazy dragon." Ddraig just ignored him, letting out a yawn before saying down. Viktor just shook his head, ready to leave his subconscious.

[Partner, be careful. Nacht Dominion is powerful, but it's also a double-edged sword, so to speak. You suffered a lot, but having friends can help.]

"Thanks Ddraig."


Sona was at the old school building with her peerage. They were currently trying to help Rias and her peerage heal after their battle with Viktor. As for Raynare, they took her to the abandoned church. She was dying, even with the healing they perfomed.

"Kaichou, Yuuto is slowly recovering from the gash on his shoulder. We're lucky his arm wasn't completely cut off," her bishop, Momo, said. She had long white hair and blue-green eyes. Looking towards Yuuto, Sona saw that he was sitting up, clutching his bandaged shoulder.

"Kaichou, we had to realign Koneko's spine and she'll have to wear a brace so she won't insure it even more." Sona's knight Tomoe and her other bishop Reya told her. Tomoe had reddish hair reaching her shoulders, while Reya had brown eyes and hair in two braids down her back. Koneko was laying down on the other couch, face down, a brace covering her back.

"Thank you. Go and make sure they get anything they need," Sona said before walking to another room in the building. 'Dammit Rias. Why'd you have to fight him? Now your entire peerage is out of commission for a good while.'

Entering a room down the hall, she saw Akeno laying in a bed, still unconscious, sweating and trembling. Sitting next to her was Rias. She had taken the least amount of damage out of all of them. Her eyes were swollen and red, signs of her crying. "Are you okay?" Sona asked.

"I'm terrible, aren't I? I put their lives at risk just because I was scared. I...I thought that the training we did was enough. He beat then as if they're nothing." Rias voice cracked at the end. Sona went up to her and gave her a hug, trying to soothe her worries.

"Don't worry, they're going to recover. Just listen to me next time."

"Yeah."

"Think of it this way. Now you know that you'll have to train harder so that won't happen again. You just misjudged his strength." Rias seemed to perk up a little, giving Sona a small smile. "So, what are you going to do now?"

"I'll just let him be. He did spare them in the end, so I guess he isn't so bad." Sona nodded at her best friend's decision, smiling until she heard Rias' next statement. "He sure is strong. Do you think he'd let me make him my servant?"

"I swear Rias, you act so spoiled and childish sometimes." They both shared a small laugh at that, looking back at Akeno's prone form. "She'll be fine you know. Akeno is a strong person, just like the others."

A knocking was heard at the door. Sona's Queen Tsubaki walking in. She was wearing the Kuoh Academy uniform, straight black hair with split bangs, light brown eyes, and blue glasses with square lenses. Looking at Sona, she gave her a small bow. "Kaichou, we've delivered the Fallen Angel Raynare to her group at the church."

"What did they say?"

"They were thankful and asked for the attacker. I just told them It was a powerful stray devil. As for her condition, they said they would try to save her."

"Alright. Rias, if it's okay with you, my peerage and I have to get going. School is still in session and we need to get back to work."

"It's fine. Thanks for all your help."

"Of course. Tsunami, tell the others to let them rest. We're going." Tsubaki nodded, about to leave when a magic circle appeared. It disappeared after a few seconds, Sirzechs standing in its place. He did not look happy.

"Rias, are you okay?"

"Onee-san, we're fine. Sona and her peerage helped patch us up."

"Good, so you can tell me what the HELL you where thinking!" Rias flinched when het brother started to yell at her, Sona standing still. "Do you know how worried I was? I explicitly said to not screw up and be careful! You can act like a total idiot at times! Why'd you attack him?"

"I-I thought he was a threat. I didn't meant to."

"That's not how he took it! So he spared your life, big deal! What if he didn't? What if he killed one of your peerage members? It would be on your conscious!"

"I'm sorry Onee-san! I'm sorry!" Rias was crying again, not used to having a family member yell at her. Seeing his sister crying, Sirzechs calmed down somewhat, letting out a tired sigh. He saw Sona standing next to her.

"Your sister was also worried about you. I managed to convince her to stay behind, but you should probably talk to her soon. You may leave now." Sona gave him a small bow, walking out of the room. Rias still had tears in her eyes, Sirzechs looking at her then Akeno.

"I'm sorry for snapping at you. I didn't mean it. It's just that when you do things like this, I get so worried and stressed. I know you and your peerage are strong. You have to know when someone is stronger though." Rias stopped crying, sniffing a little. He walked up to her and gave her a hug, calming her down.

"I'm sorry. I was just scared and worried."

"It's fine. Just think next time. Now, don't worry about the guy you attacked. I'll make sure he doesn't do it again."

"W-What do you mean?"

"He almost killed you, so I'll send people to kill him. I'll do it myself if I have to."

"Why? He was just defending himself. Besides, he spared our lives!"

"He is a threat just like you said. I won't let him kill you."

"No! I was the one that gave the order to attack him. I want to make him my servant!"

"Rias, stopping this idiocy! You have a bishop that's significantly weaker than him, yet you can't control him. Why makes you think someone who's stronger will be easier to maintain?"

"I can try and get stronger! Just don't oil someone that busted wanted to defend themselves. He has a Longinus also! He's valuable." Sirzechs was surprised at this. 'A Longinus!? No wonder he's strong. It would be helpful for the devils to have someone like that on our side. Still, he's untrustworthy.'

"Alright Rias. Of you can make him your servant in a week, I'll let him live after I talk to him. If not, then I'll personally kill him for almost killing you." With that, Sirzechs left using a magic circle. Rias stood there, worried about what to do.

'He spared our lives, so I should do the same.' Rias sat back down on her chair, falling asleep from fatigue.


Viktor walked out of his room, dressed in a pair of loose jeans and a short sleeve blue t-shirt. After talking to Ddraig, he noticed that it was around noon. 'Make friends, huh. Looks like I'll be spending the day outside then.'

Viktor went to the kitchen to grab a water bottle, spotting Reiri sitting at the dining table. Grabbing his water, Viktor sat down across from her, surprising her.

"Master! I thought you'd be at school."

"After yesterday, I don't think that's such a good idea. Now, why'd you run off yesterday?"

"I-it was nothing. I was just stressed is all."

"Reiri, tell me the real reason why. You got worm d up when I mentioned monsters." Reiri looked away, messing with her apron. She seemed nervous and scared. Viktor sat there waiting, willing to hear her out. That's what friends do, right?

"Fine. I'm a Kikimora, a type of monster. I ran off because you acted like everyone else, saying how they hate monsters because they're evil and disgusting. Well, not all of us! Imbtrying to be nice, yet you say something like that! I'm supposed to serve you, but can't knowing that you hate me!"

"I never said I hated you. I just stated that I don't trust anyone. No matte what they are, it seems that they all want to hurt me in some way or form. I know you're different, which is why I don't question anything you do. Your someone that I actual trust, showing me kindness and helping me out this past week."

"Really?" Viktor nodded at her, giving her a small smile. They sat there in comfortable silence, until Viktor got up.

"I'll be back later. I want to get sine fresh air." Viktor left, leaving Reiri sitting there. She felt better knowing that Viktor was just nervous of everyone. She still didn't trust him, but shed have to eventually. She was a Kikimora and they tend to consider the first person they serve as their husband. Reiri got up, getting some ingredients out, hoping that makin noodles will show he appreciation.


The sun was out, the sky mostly clear, a few clouds scattered around. There was a small amount of wind, though no one seemed to care. The streets were bustling with business people going to meetings or lunch. Viktor was walking around aimlessly, having no idea were he could make friends. 'Ugh. Do I really need to make friends. What are they good for anyways?'

[To cheer you up. Its the best way to help get over your nightmares quicker and help you be more trusting.]

'Ddraig? I thought you went to sleep?'

[Too lazy.]

'Dammit Ddraig!' Viktor wanted to face palm himself. A lazy dragon that was too lazy to sleep. Who knew? Viktor walked around, bored. 'Looks like nothing exciting is gonna happen today. This seems pointless.'

"Ow!"

'Or not.'

Looking around, Viktor saw a girl had tripped and fallen. Going towards her, he picked up a white veil with light blue accents. He helped her up, getting a good look at her. She was shorter than him with long blond hair that split into bangs on her forehead, green eyes, and wearing a teal nun outfit. Next to her was a medium sized suitcase and a bag. "Are you okay?"

"Yes! I can be real clumsy sometimes. My name is Asia Argentina!" Asia gave Viktor a smile, which he couldn't help but return.

"I'm Viktor. Nice to meet you. You must be new."

"Yes. I was moved to the church here, but I don't know where it is."

"I can help you. It's not too far from here."

"Really!? This must be a sign from God. Thank you Viktor." She gave him a smile while he picked up her suitcase, which was surprisingly light. They began walking towards the church.

"So, Asia, why we're you moved to the church here?"

"There was...trouble back home, so I was forced to relocate here. The people there are supposed to be nice, so it's fine. It's just another of God's trials." Viktor nodded at what she said, wondering what type of trouble she meant.

[It might've been the P-HDAS branch around Italy.]

'No, that can't be it. She seems so innocent and naive. Besides, she still believes in God. One of the first things they told us of the supernatural was that God was dead. She doesn't know that.'

[Who knows. At least your being social.]

'Shut up.'

While he was bickering with Ddraig, they heard a small kid crying at the playground. Hearing the cries, Asia went to help him, Viktor following.

"Are you okay? Don't worry, let me help." Asia knelt next to the kid and placed her hands above the kids injury. A warm, green glow appeared from her hands, healing the kid. "There, all better! Boys aren't supposed to cry, so no more tears. It's all better now!"

The kid stood there, surprised. The mother showed up and took him away, looking at Asia strangely. "Bye!" Asia waved at the kid, turning to Viktor. "He was hurt, so I helped him."

"How?" Asia looked away, her joyous mood disappearing.

[Way to go partner.]

"Since I was little, I had this power to heal people. One day, I spotted an injured puppy, so I helped it. Someone saw and told the Church. Soon, I was known as the Holy Maiden. People would come from all over and I'd help them. There was a man that was injured badly. I healed him, yet it turned out he was evil. Someone saw and soon I was labeled as a witch, kicked out of the Church. This blessing from God has brought many trials He wants me to overcome, so it's okay!" Asia said determined, wiping her eyes.

[It seems that she has a Sacred Gear as well.]

'I see. The only people I seem to meet are those with some special ability.'

"Don't worry Asia. I'll help you out if you need it."

"Thank you Viktor! You're so kind!"

'No I'm not. I'm an unstable psychopathic killer pent on vengeance. What's worse is that I enjoy it.'

Soon they arrived at the church. It was a dilapidated pace, weeds growing in the front, trash littering everywhere. The Windows were boarded up, graffiti on one of the sides.

"Asia, are you sure it's here? This is the only church I know off that's in this town."

"Yes. They told me they're renovating. Thank you for bringing me here." Asia gave him a slight bow and another smile.

"Your welcome. Be safe."

"Wait, would you like some tea? I'd like to properly thank you."

[Partner, it seems there are Fallen Angels in there. One of the auras is that of Raynare's and fading quickly. I don't think it would be a good idea.]

"I'm sorry Asia but I have something important to do. Maybe next time." The sad look Asia gave him pained him, but he had to.

"Oh. Okay then. I'll see you soon Viktor. Please stop by to visit."

"Of course. Take care." Viktor turned around and left, leaving Asia at the entrance.

Asia looked at his retreating form before turning towards the door and knocking. Immediately a disheveled looking middle-aged man wearing a trenchcoat and fedora answered, happy at seeing her.

"Are you Asia Argento?"

"Yes, ni-"

"Not now. Please, we need your help. One of our members is in a critical condition and she might die. Please, help us." Asia was shocked at what she heard. Somone was dying and she just arrived.

"Quick, show me!"

"Thank you! Follow me!" The man lead Asia into the church. The inside was no better than the outside, pews scattered around and lots of dust everywhere. He took Asia to a room towards the end of the church, lots of light coming from it. "Quickly, in here!"

What Asia saw made her gasp. There was a young woman laying down on a wooden table, dressed only in her undergarments. Her whole body was covered in wounds where she was pierced, the skin from one of her legs completely removed. Some of the gashes were deep enough to be able to see the internal organs. All around the table was blood, The aroma nauseating Asia momentarily. Sitting in chairs with a worried look was a girl with blond hair in gothic lolita clothing and a young woman wearing a top resembling a trenchcoat, her blue hair covering parts of her face.

"Dohnaseek, is this the new recruit?" The young woman asked.

"Yes. Asia she is Kalawarner. The one in the gothic outfit is Mittelt. As you can see, Raynare needs your help. Please hurry."

"I-I'll try. I've never tried healing something as bad as this." Taking a shaky breath, Asia went over to Raynare and started to heal her. Every wound took up a lot of time, but the results were effective. The wound would close up, leaving not even a scar behind.

It took her a couple of hours, but Asia managed to fully heal Raynare, almost passing out herself. "There, I finished healing her." Kalawarner walked up to Raynare, checking her pulse. It was faint, but there.

"Thank you Asia! You saved her life! Thank you!" Soon the trio hugged Asia, grateful that she had saved their leader. "Now, is there something you need?"

"Somewhere to sleep would be nice please," Asia politely asked, letting out a cute yawn.


A man walked into the lobby of the Kirijo lobby. The floors were made from a decorative tile, reflecting the light from the chandeliers. The man was wearing a nice suit, his shoes making a cracking noise with each step. He walked up to the reception area, getting he attention of the man behind the counter.

"Yes, how may I help you?"

"I'm here to see ."

"Do you have an appointment?"

"Tell him his friend Takumi is here to see him. He'll understand."

"Alright. Please wait a moment." The man took a seat nearby, a smile on his face as he waited. Soon the receptionist told him to go on ahead.

"Thanks." The man took the elevator up to the top floor. As he waited, he pulled out his silenced Glock pistol, making sure it was loaded. When he made it to the top, he hid the gun, walking down the hall towards Mr. Kirijo's office. He entered without knocking, getting Mr. Kirijo's attention.

"Takumi it's so- wait. You're not Takumi. Leave now before I call security!"

"You wouldn't want to do that know, would you? You's going to carry in your company if something happens to your daughter."

"You leave her out of this!"

"Really? Well then, I'll need you to listen to my demands."

"Not until you tell me who you are and how you know the name Takumi."

The man laughed at the angry Mr. Kirijo. "You shouldn't be talking yo me like that. You did fund my project and gave me Takumi."

"What!? I gave that stuff to...it's you. You bastard!"

"Not bastard. It's Zachary Baumgartner."


AN: Done! Not much happening. Viktor meets Asia, Sirzechs placed hit order on Viktor, Rias wants Viktor as a servant because he has sexy stubble, and Raynare kind of survived. Oh, and plot twist. Baumgartner lives again! As for Reiri, she's neutral with Viktor again. Can't have him getting the ladies to easily now can we? Speaking of Reiri, here's the omake!


The Chronicles of Reiri

Episode 1: Noodles

Reiri looked at the ingredients she had laid out. Dough, vegetable oil, various vegetables, and 'special sauce'. Viktor like noodles, so what better way to become friends again than by noodles. Unfortunately, making noodles was not her forte.

"Making noodles can't be too hard. Let's see, the book stays to add some vegetable oil." Reiri grabbed the vegetable oil and poured a small amount into a pot she had. Nothing happened though, which confused her.

"Forgot to turn on the stove. Such a rookie mistake." Sadly, that wasn't here only mistake. While turning on the stove, some of the oil had dripped onto the stove. When it was turned on, the oil caught on fire.

"Shit!" Reiri frantically looked for the fire extinguisher, the fire spreading everywhere. She panicked even more, grabbing the closet thing, a broom. She hit the fire, trying to put it out. Instead the broom caught on fire as well.

"SHIT!"

Dropping the broom, Reiri backed into the table, knocking the vegetables to the ground. They rolled into the fire, spreading it around even more.

"Wait, the special sauce!" Grabbing the jar of 'special sauce', she threw it into the fire. The fire grew even bigger, spreading towards the dining room. Reiri looked on with wide eyes, mouth open.

"Fuck."


An hour or so passed when Viktor returned. He walked in, announcing his presence to Reiri.

"Reiri, I'm back. Your not goi- What the hell happened!?" The entire kitchen and dining room had burn marks, soot everywhere. Reiri, who was standing at a corner of the wall depressed, looked at him.

"Noodles. Damn noodles."


AN: I might make it a thing to write an omake after every 10 chapters to celebrate. Let me know if you like it and want to read the omake. Poor Reiri. So cute, yet fails at noodles. Look up her profile in the Monster Girl Encyclopedia. I believe it states that Kikimora's have husbands that they serve.

To Sennybee98, I think I'll give him that power during the Raiser Arc or Excalibur Arc. To WhoAmI, thanks for your review! I don't know why. Maybe if I ask nicely. I'm just happy that a good amount of people are enjoying my first story. I was nervous at first, but it's worth it.

Next chapter will be hanging out with Asia and confronting the groups Viktor fought. Also might be further explanation of what happened at the end. Like WhoAmI said, please leave a review at the end with suggestions, improvements, likes, etc. See you next time!
