Clubroom.

Natsu and the other have just got back from the Familiar forest where, Asia got her familiar, a baby Sprite Dragon, who she named Rassei, Natsu who got Tiamat, the Chaos Karma Dragon, the Strongest of the Dragon Kings, as his Familiar, and Issei, who didn't manage to get a familiar but was still mourning the death of the slime he wanted has his familiar, who he named Slatarou.

"That was satisfying!" Natsu said before sitting on one of the couches with Tiamat's help.

"You really are happy aren't you?" Raynare said.

"Of course I am! That was one of the best fights I had in more than a year!"

"Well moving on." Rias said. "Congratulations Asia on getting your familiar."

"What about me?!" Issei yelled. "You guys killed Slatarou!"

"Just forget about it Issei." Rias said.

"But I had so many things I wanted to do with him!"

"I'm afraid to ask but what did you want to do?" Kuroka asked.

"I was planning to let it roam around the school! Imagine all the naked girls!" Issei yelled.

"He's the biggest pervert I've ever met." Tiamat said, noticing that Koneko started nodding at her statement.

"You're not the only one who thinks that." Raynare said.

"You should have seen when he was acting perverted with Sayla, she made him jump out the window." Kuroka said.

"And I would do it again." Sayla said.

"It's getting late." Rias said. "It's best if we call it a night." She said before noticing Natsu was already sleeping. "He was speaking not even a minute ago!"

"We better get home." Tiamat said while putting Natsu's arm over her shoulder to carry him. "I want to make him my Mate as soon as possible."

"YOU WHAT?!" Everyone except Koneko, Akeno, Kiba, Asia and Natsu, who was still asleep, yelled.

"I said I wanted to make him my mate." Tiamat said.

"We heard it the first time!" Kuroka yelled.

"How do you even know that you are his mate?!" Yelled Raynare.

"I agree with them. Not everyone gets to be Natsu-Sama's Mate." Sayla said.

"Well you see a Dragon…" Tiamat was about to say but was interrupted.

"We already know about it!" Raynare yelled.

"The three of us are already his Mates." Kuroka said, making Rias stare at them, a little jealous, and it didn't go unnoticed by Akeno.

"If you already know about it then why did you ask?" Tiamat said.

"We are asking how do you know that you are his mate." Sayla said.

"I was going to say before you interrupted me." Tiamat said. "You see, would it make sense if a Dragon found his only mate and that mate doesn't love him back?" Tiamat asked. "In other words, when a Dragon loves another, the other automatically also loves him."

"I see." Both Raynare and Sayla said.

"You've got to be kidding me…" Kuroka said. "I spent almost a year trying to be his mate, and now that I am, others are practically falling from the sky! It's so unfair!"

"No it isn't!" Issei yelled. "Unfair is the fact that all the hot girls that appear fall in love with him! Why doesn't it happen to me?!"

"Because you're a pervert." Raynare said making Issei start to cry anime tears.

"Wait… Natsu said that Dragon Kings have multiple mates. So does that mean you'll also have more than one Mate?" Kuroka asked.

"That rule only applies to the males." Tiamat said.

"Why?" Rias asked.

"It has to do with procreation." Tiamat said. "For example, if a male Dragon has multiple mates, then he'll have more descendants. And if it was a Female Dragon with multiple mates the same couldn't happen." She said before getting back up and walking towards the door with Natsu's arm, who was still asleep, over her shoulder so she could carry him.

"Where the hell are you going with Natsu?!" Kuroka yelled.

"What do you think?" Tiamat asked.

"At least wait until we show you the way home." Sayla said.

"What the hell Sayla!" Raynare yelled.

"What? The sooner she finishes the sooner I can have a go." Sayla said before walking out of the room with Tiamat and Natsu.

"Wait up!" Kuroka yelled before she and Raynare went after them.

"This kind of things happen a lot now a days." Rias said after Kuroka and Raynare left.

"Things have gotten a lot livelier since Natsu appeared." Akeno said.

"You can say that again." Rias said. "And Issei. How long are you going to sulk?"

"It isn't fair! He even gets girls who want to fuck him in his sleep!" Issei yelled.

"Well. At least his not sulking about the slime anymore." Kiba said.

The next day.

It was now the day after Natsu got Tiamat has his familiar and she was already his mate. They were now sitting at the table having breakfast.

"By the way Tiamat." Natsu said gaining the girls attention. "Are you going to infiltrate the school as a worker there like Sayla?" When Nastu said that he could swear that he was hearing the other girls whispering "Please don't. Please don't. Please don't." repeatedly.

"I am one of the Dragon Kings. I have more things to do besides watching a bunch of kids all day." Tiamat said.

"Ok then." Natsu said before focusing on the mountain of food that was on his plate.

"By the way Tiamat." Said Raynare. "Do all Dragons eat that much?" She asked while pointing to Natsu's food.

"A Dragon normally eats a lot, it depends on its size. But Natsu… Eats as much as a normal sized Dragon." Tiamat said.

"Good thing that Sirzechs pays for all of the expenses. " Raynare said.

After school, Clubroom.

"I can't believe this." Issei said. "The only thing he does is eat and sleep!" Issei said while looking at Natsu who was currently sleeping on a couch.

"Don't forget about…" Kuroka was about to say.

"We know!" Issei yelled.

"Well he did make his best to be awake in class." Asia said.

"Why is he always so sleepy during class?" Issei asked.

"I can tell you a few reasons." Raynare said while smirking.

"Pretend I didn't ask that." Issei said.

"Rias?" They all heard Akeno say to Rias who was looking out the window.

"Sorry Akeno what were you saying?" Rias asked.

"Is everything alright? I called you more than three times and you didn't hear me." Akeno said.

"Don't worry I'm fine." Rias said.

"You seem worried about something." Natsu said.

"When did he wake up?!" Issei yelled.

"Don't worry I'm fine." Rias said, but Natsu could tell she was lying.

Later that night.

[ALELUIA!] Daenerys screamed. [I can finally sleep during the night again!] After many pleading Daenerys was able to convince the girls to leave Natsu alone for tonight. [It's been so long since the last time I slept during the night.]

"Calm down will you." Natsu said siting on the bed.

[Something on your mind?] Daenerys asked.

"It's about Rias." Natsu said. "I know for sure that something is wrong."

[What do you mean?]

"I think she's hiding something and she doesn't want to tell anyone." Natsu said. A little after he said that a Magic Circle with the Gremory symbol appeared on the floor, and Rias came out of it.

"Rias? What are you doing here?" Natsu asked.

"Natsu." She said before putting herself on top of him. "Sleep with me!"

{NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!} Natsu heard Daenerys scream in his head.

"Say what now?" Natsu said thinking he heard wrong.

"Take my virginity! This is urgent!"

"Why is it urgent?"

"It doesn't matter right now." Rias said before she got off Natsu and started to undress herself.

"What the hell are you doing?!" Natsu yelled.

"You don't want me?" She asked.

"It's not that. But why are you doing this?"

"I considered many options." Rias said while now only wearing her white underwear. "But this is the only way." She said before walking closer Natsu again, who was still sitting on his bed.

"Way? What do you mean by that?" Natsu asked now trying to find a way to stop Rias before she does something that she might regret.

"I said that things like that don't matter right now." She said before putting herself on top of him.

'Daenerys! Any advice?!' Natsu asked mentally to Daenerys.

{SHUT UP! I'm trying to fall asleep before you guys start so that maybe I sleep thru it!}

'I'm asking your help to stop her!'

{You're on your own partner.}

'TRAITOR!'Natsu was so caught up on his conversation with Daenerys that he didn't notice that he was now lying on his bed with Rias siting on his lap taking her bra off. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

"It'll be harder to do it if I have my underwear on." Rias answered before managing to take her bra off.

'HOLY SHIT!' Natsu thought. "Rias you have to stop this!" He yelled however Rias didn't listen, instead she grabbed Natsu's hand and put it on her breast. 'They're soft. DAMMIT NATSU! CONSANTRATE!'

"See? I'm feeling really nervous." She said.

"I know I can feel your heart throbbing…I mean, YOU HAVE TO STOP THIS!" Natsu said but the moment he said that a light appeared on the floor and when Natsu looked closer he saw it was a Magic Circle with the Gremory symbol on it.

"Looks like we were too late." Rias said. After she said that Grayfia came out of the Circle.

"G-Grayfia?!" Natsu yelled. "What are you doing here?!"

"I came here to stop Ojou-Sama from doing this." Grayfia said.

'You could have come sooner.' Natsu thought.

{YEEEEEEEESSSS! My sleep night is safe!} Daenerys yelled in Natsu's head.

'Is that all you care about?!'

"My chastity is mine. What's wrong with giving it to someone I want to?" Rias said.

Grayfia didn't answer. Instead she started to pick up Rias's clothes that were on the floor. "Regardless, you are the heiress to the Gremory family." Grayfia said before putting Rias jacket on Rias's back and walking closet to Natsu, who was still on his bed. "I'm sorry for Ojou-Sama's behavior Natsu-Sama." She said while bowing.

"Dammit Grayfia! How many times do I have to ask you not to call me Natsu-Sama! Just call me Natsu." Natsu said. Grayfia however didn't answer.

"I'm sorry Natsu." Rias said. "I wasn't thinking clearly. Let's forget about this."

"O-Ok." Natsu said.

"Ojou-Sama, we better get going, Sirzechs-Sama and Lord Gremory-Sama are expecting you." Grayfia said, and for some reason she was avoiding making eye contact with Natsu.

"Very well." Rias said while walking closer to Grayfia. "Sorry for bothering you Natsu."

"Don't worry about it." Natsu said before both Rias and Grayfia left his room via Transportation Circle.

"…"

"WHAT THE HELL JUST HAPPEN?!" Natsu yelled.

"Natsu?" Kuroka called while opening his door. "Is everything alright? We heard screaming." She said entering his room along with Sayla and Raynare, Tiamat wasn't there because she had some business to take care of.

[That Gremory chick came here and asked Natsu to fuck her.] Daenerys said.

"WHAT?!" The three girls yelled.

[I know right. She almost ruined my night to sleep.]

"We didn't do anything if that's what you're thinking." Natsu said. "Grayfia appeared at the last minute."

"Grayfia was in here too?!" Kuroka yelled.

"Forget about it." He said. "Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to bed." Natsu said before lying down on his bed, but the next thing he knew Sayla was clinging to his left arm, Raynare to his right and Kuroka was lying on top of him. "What are you girls doing?"

"We never said that we weren't going to sleep with you." Kuroka said.

"And one thing might lead to another and we might end up doing it." Raynare said.

"I thing that there's an 85% chance of it happening." Sayla said.

"Screw chances! Let's just do it!" Kuroka said before she started to make out with Natsu.

[NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! My sleeping night!]

The next day After School.

Natsu and the girls were decided to go to the Clubroom earlier and now the only ones in the room were Rias, Akeno, Koneko, Grayfia, for some reason, Kuroka, Raynare, Sayla, and Natsu, who of course was sleeping on one of the couches.

"Hey all!" Issei said when he, Asia and Kiba entered room.

"Looks like everyone's here." Rias said while standing up from her seat on her desk.

"Ojou-Sama, should I talk to them?" Grayfia asked, Rias only lifted her hand to tell her it wasn't needed.

"The truth is…" Rias started but was interrupted when a red light started glowing in the room, when they looked at its source they saw a Magic Circle in the back of the room, soon after that a huge flame started on the circle and a person was visible on the middle.

"Phenex!" Kiba said.

"I haven't been to the Human Realm in a while." The man now identified as Phenex said. "I've come for you, Rias, my love."

"Who's this guy?" Issei asked.

"This is Raiser Phenex-Sama." Grayfia said. "A pure-blooded, upper-class Devil, and the third son of the Phenex family."

"Phenex family?" Issei asked.

"He's also the fiancé of the Gremory family's heiress." Grayfia said.

"Gremory family's heiress?" Issei asked. "Don't tell me?!"

"That is to say, he's engaged to Rias-Sama." Grayfia said.

"E-Engaged?!" Issei yelled.

Meanwhile with Natsu in his dreams.

"Hey Daenerys." Natsu said while sitting next to an enormous Black Dragon who apparently was Daenerys.

[What?]

"Can I ask you a question?"

[Sure, but make it quick, I'm trying to sleep.]

"When you brought me to this world you said I could one day return to my home world, do you have any idea how long it is until I can go back?" Natsu said, shocking Daenerys a bit.

[You're telling me you want to go back to your world?]

"Well, yes and no."

[Stop being confusing and just answer.]

"I have a new life here and I don't want to throw it away, I at least want to go back just to tell everyone that I'm alive."

[I see. But what about those two back at your world?]

"To be honest, I have no idea what to do. I would like for them to come with me but I can't imagine them leaving the Guild."

[I see. And to answer your question, I have no idea how to get you back to your world, and by the way, your "death" is in about five days from now.]

"Say what?!" Natsu yelled. "How is that possible?! I think that we just got back from Tenro Island about a week ago!"

[Listen kid, your perception of time in that world is all fucked up from all the times you were in different times.]

"What do you mean?"

[I mean that because of being stuck in time for seven years and for spending one day in the Celestial World you're time perception of that world is all messed up, when you said that you and the other were coming back from that Island, you were really getting back from the Grand Magical Games.]

"Oh…"

[Now if you don't have any more questions, I'm going back to sleep.]

"Do you smell smoke?"

Back in the real world.

"I'm not going to bring my family down." Rias said to Phenex who was sitting on one of the couches. "I'm going to take a husband. But I will marry someone I want to be with."

"The entire Devil World struggles to preserve the lineages of pure-blooded Devils, after the last war it made them a rarity." Phenex said. "Our fathers arranged this marriage for the common good.

"My father, older brother, and the other family members are all rushing too much." Rias said. "I won't say it twice, Raiser. I'm not going to marry you!" She said before Phenex stood up and grabbed Rias's chin and came closer to her face.

"You know, Rias, I am the face of the Phenex family." Phenex said. "I cannot have you sully my honor." He said in a threating tone.

"Buchou!" Issei yelled.

"I'll take you back to the Underworld. Even if it means burning all of your servants to death."

"What smells like burnt chicken?" A voice was heard gaining everyone's attention, when they looked at its source they saw Natsu was waking up.

"So you finally woke up. Good your snoring was driving me insane." Phenex said.

"Who's this guy?" Natsu asked. "And why does he smell like a chicken that was left in an oven to long?"

"You dare speak that way to me?! A descendant of the great and mighty Phoenix!"

"The hell is Phoenix?" Natsu asked.

"It's a legendary bird." Raynare said.

"Is it tasty?" Natsu asked with a little drool starting to form in his mouth.

"You can't eat it." Kuroka said.

"Well that sucks." Whined Natsu.

"You can't eat it because a Phoenix is immortal." Sayla said.

"You, me, fight, now!" Natsu said to Phenex.

"Please, a mere low-class Devil like you can't even last a second against me."

"WHAT WAS THAT?!" Natsu yelled prepared to jump at him but was stopped by Grayfia.

"Please calm down." Grayfia said. "I will not permit a fight."

"When it's you, the mightiest Queen to say that, even I am scared."

"What a coward!" Natsu said, the next thing he knew he was frozen from the neck down. "DAMMIT GRAYFIA!"

"I knew you would try something if I didn't do this." Grayfia said. "And Sirzechs-Sama predicted that this might happen between you two." Grayfia said now looking at both Rias and Phenex. "So I have been charged to carry out last resort measures if no agreement is reached."

"Last resort?" Rias asked. "What are you talking about Grayfia?"

"I'm talking about a Rating Game between you and Phenex-Sama." Grayfia said.

"Rating Game? Where did I hear that before?" Natsu asked, still trapped in Ice.

"A Rating Game is a game that resembles Chess, where upper-class Devils fight using their servants." Kiba said.

"Wait, so you're saying it's an all-out battle?" Natsu asked receiving a nod from Kiba. "Now I really have to get out of this ice!"

"I've played the game many times and won many times as well." Phenex said. "You're not even an official qualified player, let alone have any experience."

"Originally, only seasoned Devils were allowed to participate in a Rating Game." Akeno said.

"Then she's at a real disadvantage!" Issei said.

"It's getting worse." Koneko said.

"Rias, just to make sure are these all your servants?" Phenex asked.

"All except that pink haired guy and the three girls over there." Rias said.

"It's salmon!" Natsu yelled while still trying to free himself from Grayfia's Ice, 'Damn Gray's Ice is nothing compared with hers.'

When Phenex heard Rias's answer he started to laugh and snapped his fingers, when he did so another Magic Circle appeared on the ground and from it came fifteen girls. "I have fifteen. In other words, a full set of pieces."

"Beauties!" Issei said "Fifteen beautiful girls?! Unbelievable!" He said before starting to cry. "What a true man!"

"H-Hey Rias, that servant is crying out loud while looking at me."

"Forming a harem is his dream." Rias said.

"That's creepy." A small girl with blond hair said.

'That girl smells like that Razer Phonix guy, maybe they're related.' Natsu thought.

"Oh, I see." Phenex said. "Yubelluna!" He called.

"Yes, Raiser-Sama." A woman with purple hair said walking closer to Phenex. When she got close to him Phenex started to make out with her, when Rias saw that she started to make an angry face that no one in that room had ever seen her do. When they finished Phenex grabbed her from behind and started groping her.

"You'll never be able to do things like this, you lowly imp." Phenex said.

"Shut up!" Issei yelled. "I can tell you'll flirt with other girls even after marrying Buchou! You promiscuous chicken shit!"

"Don't you know your place?" Phenex asked.

"I don't care!"

"Issei stop this!" Rias order him.

"That was all Yubelluna, go back to the others." Phenex ordered. Yubelluna immediately went back to the others, but Natsu was the only one that saw the look on her face that told that she felt horrible, like she was an object of some kind, she felt used.

'Don't tell me… She's doing this against her will. Why would she do it? Why doesn't she fight back?' Natsu thought before remembering what happened with Kuroka. 'Right, she might become a stray. But still I can't just stand here doing nothing! I have to help her!' Natsu thought with a mixture of determination and rage and unconsciously started to release his magic and started to melt the ice around him.

"This fight will be the easiest I ever had." Phenex said before he and the others sensed a mixture of heat and a lot of energy, when they looked at its source they saw Natsu had successfully melt the Ice surprising everyone in the room especially Phenex and Grayfia. Phenex was surprised because not even he could melt the strongest Queens ice and Grayfia was surprised because no one besides Sirzechs has ever melted her ice successfully, Natsu also notice that Yubelluna started to look at him, what he didn't see was the hopeful expression on her face.

"They will win." Natsu said. "I'll make sure they do." He said with a serious tone that no one has ever heard him use.

"Fine then." Phenex said. "They have ten days before our fight. You have a lot of work to do." He said mockingly.

"I'll make sure that you lose and I'll make you eat those words." Natsu said.

"How scary." Mocked Phenex.

"That's enough from both of you." Grayfia said. "I'll make sure that Sirzechs-Sama knows about this and gets things ready." When she said that Phenex walked back to his peerage.

"Raiser." Rias said. "I swear that I'll blast you away!"

"I'm looking forward for it, Rias, my love." Phenex said. "We'll meet again for the game, then." He said before a giant flame appeared again surrounding Phenex and his peerage and when it died down they were gone.

"You better know what you're doing Natsu." Rias said after Phenex and Grayfia left.

"Don't worry." Natsu said. "I'll make sure that you guys win, the next ten days will be hell for you guys."

"W-What do mean?" Asia asked, a little afraid with the look on Natsu's face.

"I'm very strict when it comes to training." Natsu said. "Rias, do you know any secluded place we can use to train?"

"I'll take care of it." Rias answered.

"Ok then, everyone, be ready tomorrow morning." Natsu said. "That includes you three." Natsu said while looking at Kuroka, Raynare and Sayla.

"We have to go to?!" Raynare asked.

"Yeah, I'll take this opportunity to really see what you girls are really able to do."

The next day.

"Come on, Issei." Rias said while they were walking up a mountain and Issei was caring a big bag on his back. "Hurry up!"

"U-Um, should I help him carry the bags?" Asia asked.

"It's alright." Rias said. "He has to be able to handle this."

"I'm going on ahead." Kiba said while passing by Issei while carrying a bag about the same size as Issei's.

"Damn you for showing of how easy you have it!" Issei said.

"Pardon me." Koneko said while passing by Issei while carrying a bag that was about ten times bigger than Issei's.

"I give up!" Issei said.

"What's the matter Issei?" Natsu asked from behind him. When Issei locked back he saw Natsu with a bag as big as Koneko's on his back.

"What the hell?!" Issei yelled.

"Hey, as anyone seen Kuroka and the others?" Natsu asked.

"We're up here!" Kuroka said. When Natsu heard that he looked up in the direction of her voice and saw that they were on top of his bag.

"When did you get there?!" Natsu asked.

"At the base of the mountain." Raynare said.

"Why?" Natsu asked.

"We weren't in the mood to climb up." Kuroka said.

"Since we're still half way up the mountain, I'll give you girls two options." Natsu said. "The first is you come down and walk on your own. The second is that you stay there and see what happens later."

"We'll take the second." Raynare said.

"Your funeral." Natsu said before he started to run up the mountain and easily passed by the others.

"SLOW DOWN!" Kuroka yelled.

"I warned you!" Natsu said.

"I'm starting to get afraid from his training." Rias said when Natsu was no longer visible.

A few hours later.

"Wow, this place looks amazing!" Asia said when she and the others reached the top.

"You guys are finally here." Natsu said while he and the other girls, who seemed to be out of breath, were sitting by a tree.

"Why do they look so tired?" Issei asked. "Weren't you the one that ran up the mountain with them on your back?"

"Believe me. Trying not to fall was harder than climbing up the mountain." Kuroka said.

"Since you guys are finally here I'll be taking my leave." Natsu said walking in the direction of the forest.

"Where you going? Didn't you say you would help us train?" Rias asked.

"I'll help you guys." Natsu said. "But today I'm going to train by myself, and the remaining days I'll train you guys." He said before disappearing in the forest.

"Well, start our training then." Rias said.

"Already?!" Issei asked. "Just as I thought, you're a monster Buchou!"

"No, I'm a Devil.

Somewhere else in the forest.

"This seems like a good place." Natsu said when he reached a place without many trees in the forest. "No one seems to be around." He said while sniffing the air to see if he gets any scents.

[Looks like we're alone.] Daenerys said.

"Perfect, I don't have to worry about holding back." Natsu said as he started releasing his magic, when he did the grass around his feet started to burn.

[Are you going to train Dragon Soul?] Daenerys asked.

"It's been a while since the last time I used it. So I think this is a great opportunity."

[Remember, the last time you used it you were fighting against Tannin and you gave him a beating, sure he beat you back but not as much, but it was still funny as hell!] Daenerys said while laughing.

"Here it goes then." Natsu said as he started to release even more magic. "Dragon Soul!" Natsu said before getting consumed in flames, when they died down Natsu was in his Dragon Soul form, in other words his most of his skin had turned in to red scales, his hand and feet had turned into Dragon claw the spiked in his elbows were back, he once again had two horns, that were pointing up, in his head, his Dragon like wings were now bigger and his tail was there, and to finish his eyes had turned black with red slits.

A few hours later.

"I think that's enough." Natsu said before dispelling the Dragon Soul. "Dammit! My clothes are ruined again!" Natsu said when he saw that the only intact piece of clothing was his pants, and they were filled with holes, and his scarf.

[I think you went a little too far.] Daenerys said, when he said that Natsu looked around and he saw that most of the vegetation around him was burned, and the floor was filled with craters.

"You think so? I've done worse." Natsu said. "Now let's go back, it's starting to get late and I'm hungry!" Natsu said walking back to the others, but suddenly he stopped. "I know you're there! Show yourself!" Natsu said. Soon after he said that a person came out of the shadows. "You're Yubelluna right?"

"Yes." She said.

"What are you doing here?" Natsu asked.

"I came here to ask for your help!" Yubelluna said, and from the look on her face Natsu could tell she wasn't lying.

"My help? Why would you need my help?"

"I want you to make sure that they can defeat Phenex-Sama!"

"Isn't he your King?" Natsu asked. "Shouldn't you want him to win?"

"No. I want him to lose! So that maybe I can get a chance to leave his peerage without having to become a stray!" Yubelluna said.

"If you feel like that then why did you join his peerage in the first place?" Natsu asked.

"Like Lucifer has the Lucifuge, the Phenex family has a side family that serves them through history, in other words, my family."

"So you were saying you were made his Queen without being able to refuse?" Natsu asked, Yubelluna didn't say anything but instead just nodded. "Alright, I promise you that I'll do everything I can to help you."

"R-Really?" Yubelluna asked not believing that he would just accept without asking anything in return.

"Of course." Natsu said. "But you have to something for me."

"A-And what is that?" She asked, thinking that he would want to do it with her.

"Fight with all you got." Natsu said while doing his toothy grin.

"What?"

"I want you to fight seriously during the Rating Game."

"Why?"

"There are two reasons." Natsu said. "I don't like when people hold back in serious fights, and that Burned Chicken might know something's up if you suddenly lose."

"Very well then." Yubelluna said.

"Now if you'll excuse me I have to go back." Natsu said walking away leaving Yubelluna alone.

Back at the House.

Everyone has already finished training and were now sitting at a table filled with food.

"Hey everyone I'm back." Natsu said walking in to the Dining room. "Look at all of this food!" He said before running to his seat.

"What happened to your clothes?" Raynare asked when she noticed that Natsu was half naked.

"They got destroyed during my training." Natsu said while stuffing his mouth with food.

"What kind of training were you doing to end up like that?" Akeno asked.

"Intense training." Was the only answer he gave before focusing on his meal.

"Good thing Issei and Asia made all this food." Rias said while the others agreed before they resumed eating.

"Ok, since we finished eating, let's take a bath." Rias said standing up.

"A bath?!" Issei yelled.

"Oh, Issei are you planning to peek on us bathing?" Rias said. "Want to go in together with us? I won't mind. How about you Akeno?"

"I want to try washing a guy's back." Akeno said while giggling.

"Asia, you won't object to bathing with your beloved, will you?" Rias asked. Asia only nodded. "Koneko?"

"Don't want to." Koneko said.

"And you three?" Rias asked.

"No way in hell!" They said simultaneously.

"They have the majority." Rias said. "Never mind, then." When she said those words Issei fell back. "Too bad."

"If you peek, I'll hate you." Koneko said.

"What about you Natsu? Want to go with us?" Kuroka asked. "I'm sure they wouldn't mind if it's you."

"He's not a pervert like him." Koneko said.

"Apparently no one minds if Natsu goes with us." Rias said, liking the idea of seeing how Natsu looks like.

"That unfair!" Issei yelled.

"No thanks." Natsu said. "I've already had my share of baths with girls back in Fairy Tail."

"Say what?" Raynare asked.

"I bathed with Erza until I was at least fourteen." Natsu said.

"FOURTEEM?!"

"One question, how hot is that Erza chick?" Issei asked.

"Erza Scarlet, one of the two strongest females of Fairy Tail, she's also one of the most beautiful girls in Fairy Tail, she's known as Titania, the Queen of the Fairies." Sayla said.

"Oh, there was also a time that Mira joined us." Natsu said.

"And who is she?" Raynare asked a little annoyed.

"Mirajane Strauss, the other strongest female of Fairy Tail, she, like Erza, is one of the most beautiful girls in his Guild, she's also Fairy Tail's cover girl."

"I don't want to know anymore." Kuroka said.

"But there are more girls that used to spent time to Natsu.

"WE DON'T WANT TO KNOW!" Both Kuroka and Raynare yelled.

The next day.

Everyone was sitting at a table hearing Rias history lesson. "Asia because you were a nun, please tell us what you know."

"O-Ok" Asia said, after that she taught them the things she knew about exorcism, and ending with her trying to read the bible.

"I have a question." Natsu said. "Aren't we going to train?" Natsu asked.

"We are training." Rias said. "We're training our knowledge."

"You're kidding right?" Natsu asked.

"No."

"I'm starting to think you guys are screwed." Natsu said.

"SHUT UP!" Rias yelled.

That Night.

"That midnight snack hit the spot." Natsu said while leaving the kitchen.

"Natsu?" Rias said while coming down the stairs.

"Oh, Rias." Natsu said. "What are you doing at this hour?"

"Perfect timing." Rias said "Let's have a talk." After she said that she and Natsu went to stone gazebo that was next to the mansion.

"Is that about war strategy?" Natsu asked when he noticed that Rias was carrying a book.

"Yes, but to be honest, playing it by the book only offers a bit of consolation." Rias said.

"Don't worry." Natsu said. "You guys are going to win."

"But this time we're up against Phenex." Rias said. "I'm sure you heard of it. A sacred beast said to be an immortal bird. And although they're demons, his family shares the name with this sacred beast. On top of that, they're a Great Marquis family considered elite even among the 72 Keys. He also shares the sacred beast's power, immortality."

"What is he Zeref?" Natsu asked sarcastically.

"Even if you hurt him, he'll regenerate instantly. His game record shows eight wins and two losses." Rias said.

"So it's possible to defeat him." Natsu said.

"Those two losses were against an allied family. He lost on purpose." Rias said.

"I'm sorry." Natsu said.

"For what?" Rias asked.

"I spoke up against Raller back then, forcing you into this fight." Natsu said messing up Phenex's name.

"Actually, that was rather helpful. We could cut to the chase afterward." Rias said. "My father has set up this game in advance, knowing I will probably lose."

"Why are you so opposed to the engagement?" Natsu asked.

"I'm the daughter of the Gremory house. I've never treated as an individual. I'm always Rias Gremory. The name Gremory follows me everywhere. Although I am proud of my house, when it comes to finding a life partner, I want someone who loves me. Not as daughter of the Gremory family, but as Rias. They may be conflicted ideas, but I still hold on to this small dream."

"I'd love you regardless of your rank and name. I might not be too knowledgeable about your family or the social hierarchy of Devils. But since the day I met you until now I've never seen you our thought of as anyone besides Rias." Natsu said making Rias start to blush a little. "Did I say something weird?" He said when he noticed the look on Rias's face.

"Not at all." Rias said. "Anyway, let's try to win this battle. Now come on we still have to train tomorrow so we better go to bed."

About a week later.

"Issei, use your Boosted Gear!" Rias said.

"But you said I couldn't use it during this camp."

"Without my permission." Rias said. "Can you be his opponent, Yuuto?"

"Of course Buchou." Kiba said. "I won't go easy on you!" He said putting himself in a fighting stance.

"Boosted Gear!" Issei yelled summoning his Sacred Gear.

[BOOST!]

"Try again!" Rias ordered.

[BOOST!]

"Once more!"

[BOOST!]

"Still not enough!"

Issei continued to Boost until he Boosted for the twelfth time.

"He powered up twelve times." Akeno said.

"Stop." Rias said. "Do you see now? You wouldn't have been able to handle so many boosts before this camp. That's the result of your training."

"I see!"

"Begin!

"Let's go! Boosted Gear!"

[EXPLOSION!]

"Issei, unleash your magic!" Rias said, and Issei did exactly that and formed a small red orb on his palm.

"I still fail!" Issei said.

"Shoot!" Rias said.

Kiba started to charge at Issei and Issei punched the orb and created a powerful beam that destroyed part of a mountain top.

"Ara Ara."

"The mountain…" Koneko was going to say.

"… Was leveled to the ground." Asia finished.

Issei then started to faint and Asia ran up to him to see if he was alright. "Looks like he used all his energy." Rias said. "Yuuto, how was he?"

"Well, I really was surprised," Kiba said. "That was a powerful attack."

"Issei, you will be a decisive factor in the game" Rias said.

"Really?" Natsu asked. "No mean to offend but in my world that's considered what? A middle-class attack?"

"Come on Natsu, people in your world can't be that strong." Rias said.

"He's not lying." Sayla said. "There are hundreds maybe thousands of Mages that are able to surpass that attack."

"People from that world are scary." Asia said.

"They really are fearsome." Rias said.

The day of the Game.

Here it was, the day of the Rating Game between Rias and Phenex, they were all in the Clubroom waiting for the Game to start. Kiba was readying his swors, Koneko was putting on a pair of fingerless gloves, Akeno was just drinking a cup of tea and so was Rias, Issei and Asia were just sitting there waiting for the time to pass and Natsu and the girls were also there.

"Excuse us." Sona said as she and her Queen walked in the room.

"Good evening, Sona." Rias said from her seat behind her desk.

"What are they doing here?" Natsu asked.

"Rating Games are broadcasted to members of both families." Rias said. "They are responsible for it."

"I volunteered for the task." Sona said. "It's your first game, after all."

Soon after that a Gremory Magic Circle appeared on the ground and Grayfia appeared. "Everyone, are you prepared?" She asked.

"Yes, anytime." Rias answered.

"When it's about to start, you will be teleported to the battlefield."

"Battlefield?" Issei asked.

"It's disposed of after each game, so you can run wild all you want." Akeno said.

"The more you guys talk about it, the more I want participate in one." Natsu said.

"I'll be going back to the Student Council room to manage the broadcast." Sona said. "I wish you the best of luck, Rias." She said before walking out of the room along with her Queen.

"By the way, the Demon Lord Lucifer will be watching this fight as well." Grayfia said.

"I see." Rias said. "Onii-San is also going to watch."

"It's about time." Grayfia said when a Magic Circle appeared on the floor.

"Let's go!" Rias said.

"Good luck you guys. We'll be watching from here so you better win." Natsu said when Rias and her peerage were in the Circle.

"We will." Rias said before she and the others started to disappear one by one to the fight that will change Rias's future.
