More followers! Awesome! On another note, funeral is a thing he is going to try to do back in his home town after the problem passes. Sorry if this is considered a spoiler. I am horrible at keeping my mouth shut. Or so people say. I am writing this starting Tuesday October 25. Want to see how long it usually takes for a chapter to be written.
Let us begin!
Chapter 14: Getting Koneko back?
With David Co.
I dodge another punch easily. Took a couple minutes of barely dodging Koneko to find out she has a pattern.
The other two are double teaming the Wukong. I frown at my memories if Koneko.
David Memory 1
I stared into the analyzing eyes of the red head up in the window. A poke at my back made me turn to a short white haired girl. I had thought she was creepy back then.
"Follow me." She ordered.
In this time a unknown pain ripped through my head. "Aahhhh!" I screamed out falling to my knees. I held my head in my hands in hope of comfort.
She kneeled down next to me with a straight face. "It's okay. Let the pain flee." She advised. I had thought she was crazy. I did it anyway and all the pain left.
"Thank you White Hair." I thank her getting up.
"Call me Koneko, kid." She said unamused.
David Memory 1 end
"The good old days when I had no clue what life was truly like. Everything right in the world." I accidentally say out loud before a punch that I dodge.
Koneko fumes. "Mockery?! Are you saying you wish you never met all of us?!" She demands.
I sigh. "Yes." She stops in her tracks. Tears still streaming down her face. "None of this would have happened. I would be living with my family alive not bothering with all the stress I get now. I would give anything to go back then."
"I liked you. As more than a regular friend. We shared many things. What happened when you disappeared?"
I smile slightly. "I learned what true friends are. I went to hell. Those three. Harry Yuuki, Yuko Temaki and Hannah Heinze. I can never forget them. Never left my side despite the time they were offered a way into the living world. Tell me. When you left with Kuroko, WHAT DID YOU CHOOSE?! FRIENDS OR SAFETY?!" I roar making her cry more and more.
She falls to her knees. "Kuroko would have killed you!" She yells weakly.
Koneko Memory 1
Koneko P.O.V
I stared up at Rias waiting for the sign. Boom.
I poked the back of the strange new kid. Regular human. It was sort of a nice aura he had.
"Follow me." I ordered blocking my feelings.
He suddenly started screaming loudly. "Aahhhh!" All of a sudden I sense a wave of completely different races all as one. The Zengaria.
"It's okay. Let the pain flee." I advised. I know it was lame, but it worked.
"Thank you White Hair." He had said.
I mentally sigh. "Call me Koneko, kid."
Koneko Memory end
David P.O.V
She looks depressed now. Why?
She sniffles still on her knees. "When we met was the one time I liked you as a person. Now you are against me? My sister thinks you are a weak human!" Koneko yells.
This pushes me over the edge. I am human. "I am a human." I growl. She looks at me as if I am crazy. I rush her and sucker punch her jaw sending her into the opposite wall. She slams into the wall to make a hole in it.
A hissing sound comes from directly behind me. I jump forward still acquiring a large gash down my back. I grimace from the large amount of pain.
Standing where I was is Kuroko smiling viciously. Blood trickling down her claws. From her mouth are razor sharp teeth. Her tail swishing dangerously.
"You are pretty strong for a human. I will kill you for hurting my sister!" She threatens happily.
I frown. behind her is a frightened Vali. Not much things scarier than a furious older sister. Even then it is impressive that she was that quick. Good thing I have cat-like reflexes.
"Hey! Don't kill him! I want to be the one to kill him!" Vali squeaks out. He's scared. Wow.
"Shut up or else dragon boy. I will have to "train" you to be quiet. In the dungeon." She hisses out.
My jaw drops. I turn to Koneko already next to me. On her knees. "Please join us! Don't let her kill you."
I shake my head in disappointment. "You are a hot mess now. We both changed. If only we could go back. But I am not here for any of you. Where is Sona Sirtri?"
Koneko cries harder. Suddenly Kuroko pops up in front of me and kicks my gut then my side. I am sent flying away, but I plant my feet on the ground skidding to a stop. Kuroko shows in front of me again with a sick smile.
"Join us and I will spare you for Shirone." Kuroko states.
David Memory 2
Koneko walked to me as I was laying bleeding from a bully. With everything I owned the bully stole. She hands them to me. "Don't lose to that guy again Zengaria." She said.
David Memory 2 end
I realize something now. "You changed your mind on some things. But if you do the exact same thing then you are worse for preaching before doing." Alucon says says fill of conviction.
A light shines in my eye. The start of my newest light form. The one from against the suicide girls. (I shall not make such a reference as Suicide Squad...crap.)
"Hold on Koneko! I'll bring you back if it's the last thing I do!" I roar flashing into a blinding light aura and bright blue eyes with floating hair flowing in my aura. The blast of the transformation sends Kuroko back. Koneko looks to me confused as well as everyone else. "I refuse to abandon a friend to some pricks!"
"Too bad." Kuroko says. She begins to summon a weird circle I can only assume is a teleportation pad. I summon my two holy and demonic daggers. I allow her to transport in front of me. Everything is slower now. I run around her and slash her back with the demonic dagger causing her to shriek in pain. I slash her in the same exact way and place with the holy dagger causing a unimaginable scream of pain.
I kick towards her, but before my foot could reach, a while light from my feet hit her away. "Cool." I mutter. I go to attack only to see Kuroko unconscious. Guess that combo did a number on her.
"You just put demonic energy into her then holy power! Of course she isn't going to take it with ease!" The first Zengaria yells inside my head.
I walk to Koneko and hold a hand out for her leaving the Great Light form. (That's the name now.) She stares at me with her tears still falling. I smile.
"I'm sorry. Grab my hand. We are going home." I say gently.
She looks at my hand. As if I might deceive her. "What about my sister?"
"That is not your sister. That is a monster. I have no doubt she will die soon." I say. That girl that calls her Koneko is a straight up jerk off. "Shirone is actually a nice name. Why get rid of it?"
She looks down. "It helps me forget my sister."
I sigh. I grab her hand and pull her up to her feet. She looks at me waiting for a finishing blow to her life. I roll my eyes. "I know I was a jerk. Sorry. I have no excuse. I am taking you away because of such a idiot sister. Say bye."
I start to pull her away towards the group of devils. Nope. Wukong jumps in front of me with his staff pointed at me. I let go of Koneko and enter the Great Light (nice ring to it).
I summon the holy and demonic twin daggers. He has to know what this combo can do. Why prevent us from leaving? I have no intention of killing such a respectable man. Leave that to someone else.
He looks over to Koneko sadly. "I refuse to let you go unless it is with your own consent. Tell me if you wish to leave with this guy. I will gladly step aside." He says.
I step aside and put away my weapons. We all look to Koneko. "Don't think of what anybody wants. Think of what your soul tells you. A soul always knows while a heart can be easily manipulated." I tell her. I have experience no with this, but I knew a few people who told me this, so I know this to be true.
Wukong nods. "I agree."
She looks to the ground debating on what her soul is telling her to do. Such a fragile girl. Been through too much in such a short time. I can say the same for me, but I am dealing with this a lot better since I know a certain being inside me will always be here for me. Who does she have? All if us. Who does she trust more? None with her problems.
She looks up to me then Wukong. Then back to me. "I chose to go with David and the rest. Sorry." She tells the Monkey King.
He smiles putting down his staff. "You have nothing to be sorry about. Your sister forced you away and this time you are given a choice. I hope to meet again as friends to chat with instead of on the battlefield. Good-bye." He opens a rift and drags Kuroko in.
A hand grasps my shoulder. A firm one. I turn to see Vali. I look him in the eyes. We both grin. A unheard promise has been made. To have a grand fight someday. Without interruption. He pets go then walks through the portal.
"Wait!" Rias calls out catching Vali's attention. "Where is Sona?"
He tilts his head. "Didn't you know? She escaped to home in the Underworld a half hour before you got here."
Rias smiles. "Thank you."
Vali nods. "Not a problem for my plans."
He walks through leaving the rest of us alone. The portal closes. I look to Koneko only to not see her. I look around me quickly.
Everyone is giggling and Issei is moping in the corner. Wonder why. They point at my feet except for Issei who is crying.
I look down to find Koneko is curled around my feet on the ground showing her feline features. Would be cute. If it was someone not as tired as me! I couldn't even feel her cuddle my legs! How much does that tell you? Don't you dare say it is because I wasn't paying attention. I am totally vigilant.
"Good job buddy!"
I grab Koneko lightning fast, pretty slow for me in my other forms, and jump ten away. I look where I was to see Kiba rolling on the ground laughing. As well as everyone else. Koneko looks at me with with a tiny grin.
I roll my eyes. "Not you too. I just am very on edge."
"I love you." Koneko says into my ear making my blood...run cold. Not happy like I should. Sadness. Guilt. To kill everyone. Even the girl who loves me. The one that didn't hate me.
I want to make the most of this though. Who knows if I can change the way things go. But I know that I can never share a bond this close to her through other means. In a changed past.
What will I do to prevent seeing Issei? This is seriously bad. I like her too. But can I ever get her love back? Of course. Maybe none of that lovey dovey crap, but still.
I smile for her though. "Same." I must smile for her. She smiles and closes her eyes.
"How cute!" Alucon yells.
'I can't. 'This'll only be for her comfort.' I state.
"Congratulations for your new girlfriend David. Now you have another reason to win every battle. For a purpose. Let's go home." Rias says gently. She turns to the weeping Issei. "Let's go Issei."
I walk over to the portal Akeno just opened. We all stand in it except Koneko who is sleeping in my arms. I frown. Naturally they notice.
"Why the long face? You just got a girlfriend." Akeno asks.
I sigh. "I end killing everyone in the end. I will never make a bond this close to her when I change things to the way it was meant to be. I have no idea what will happen." They all look down. "That is why I will smile for her. To remember this throughout time. So let's go home before I puke up my words."
They all smile. Akeno then transports us inside the ORC building. I put Koneko on a separate part of the couch then flop on the other part. The moment I hit the nice cushions, I fall asleep naturally.
All P.O.V
The group wanted to speak with David, but now they have to wait for him to wake up. Great. They still can't believe what they went through even though their goal has already escaped.
"At least we got Koneko back. It has a while." Kiba states smiling at the two on the couch.
They all nod. "But why not have David go to his old home to put his brother and sister to rest? You know. A funeral." Issei says honestly. Wow.
They stand staring. "Why are we now thinking that?" Gasper asks.
"We had a lot to get rid of. Now that we are free, we can go with him and meet his old friends! Soon. I'm sleepy." Akeno says. She lays on the ground then falls asleep.
They all stare. "She must be really tired. Especially since her clothes are ripped up. Not a problem for Issei.
He stares with hungry eyes absorbing the show intensely. Xenovia knows what she is up against. A genius. Xenovia also knows that if her shirt is stretched much more then it will tear. She stretches her arms behind her cracking some bones. Her shirt rips down the front catching Issei's all perving eyes.
Rias then gets her idea. Get rid of Xenovia for a while.
Another place
"What?! David might be coming back?!" Five people shout.
"Yes. For sad reasons I hear. From my understanding, his family was killed by some serial killer." A masked man tells the five 17 and 18 year olds.
They all look down except for one with a smile. "I guess David is human after all. Out of the two parents, he ended up human. But how does a human serial killer kill a created devil and two of his kids?"
The masked man shrugs. "Don't know. Plus I couldn't care less about a human problem. You said I could take him. So now he is mine."
They all look up grinning like the actual evil devil. They move as one shoving a hand in his arms, legs and head. Killing him.
The one who smiled frowns. "We said you could if he wasn't normal. Going against our wishes results in forfeiting your life. Now we wait." He says to the dead corpse.
"I am so glad we didn't have to hand him over to that filthy Fallen." One of the three girls say.
They all take their hands out. "Why?" The apparent leader asks.
"Because he is ours to protect now. Our toy. Human toy."
They all grin. If you count one if them being fake as well as forced. 'I hope you don't come back.'
ORC house
Asia stares at Koneko jealously. Wow. Can't guess why.
Koneko is sleeping on top of David's lap. Like a real cat. The two sleeping peacefully on the couch.
"He never let me cuddle like that." Then she thinks about Issei. "I love Issei more though."
A loud noise sounds from behind David's head scaring Koneko to death. Running to a corner. As for David...smash.
"Great. Now we need a new alarm clock." Rias sighs walking in.
David sits up letting out a yawn. Koneko just looks around strangely. She then falls into normal stoic Koneko we all know and kind of like. She stands up and walks by the not yet complete group.
"We decided you need to have a funeral for Rina, Billy and Sarah." Rias says flat out.
David looks to the floor. "I know. I just... can't think of anyone who would care about me enough here. Not to mention they would dub me as a orphan then send me far away from all of you and the other things I protect." He smiles faintly. "I don't even have money for a casket let alone three."
The three girls slam their fist onto David's head at the same time. Although he couldn't feel Asia's fist. He rubs his head then looks at the three girls.
"We already have all that ready. All we have to do is go to your hometown and have the funeral." Asia explains.
David pales. 'Will my friends still accept me?'
"We didn't invite anyone. Only because we don't know anyone. We are going to be there obviously. If anyone else comes...be careful. Nobody there should know." Rias explains. David nods. "We'll leave in a weak. It is Monday. We have to head to school now."
"Why not leave now?"
Rias looks down. "Teachers are getting suspicious of us. They we are skipping school for fun. I can only make excuses so long."
They sat in silence for a few minutes. "I'm skipping today." David says.
"Yeah." Asia and Koneko agree.
Rias stares at the three. "Me too." She says defeated. "I'm too tired to do anything."
"I just want a break today. Maybe watch a movie or something." David admits.
"Frozen?" Asia suggests.
David freaks out. "NO! Not before I die!"
Asia grins slyly freaking David out more. As well as the other two. "You already died twice. Since it's after your death you are going to watch it!"
David is then seen in a corner crying. "That movie had a good plot. But...the songs will be burned into my head again for a whole two months! Two months! You can't do this to me! My life sucks." He cries to the wall.
The three girls deadpan. This is the guy that defeated Koneko's obviously powerful sister? In two slashes. This is the guy who stood si boldly for Koneko after realizing his mistake? The guy that has unmeasurable growth in the power department? Sadly, it is.
Get the bad guys to make him watch Frozen and he is dead meat. That or the TV will be destroyed. Honestly? He has to be exaggerating things.
That is how they spend the day waiting for him to calm down then finally they put in Frozen. He liked it. Other than the singing. Specifically? (No hates please! It's bad enough I mentioned this movie...) Let it go.
Seems to despise the song. "Let him go. Let him go. Let him fall to the ground. Let him go. Let him go. I couldn't care less." David sang under his breath mocking the song. Means to let him fall down a cliff.
All three punched him in the back of the head. He grumbled while rubbing his sore head.
That is how the rest of the school day went. Once they walk outside they each smile at the academy they fight for. The people inside are the ones they truly fight for. The academy is a bonus. The people that live. The group of unnatural beings all claim to fight for friends or themselves, but their deep inside goal is to fight for the people here.
They then see the rest of the group walking towards the four skippers. Each has a look of either jealously or amusement.
"Why do you guys get to skip?" Issei asks irritably.
"Because I felt like it. They just agreed. Besides, all I have to do is keep the horrible grades I have then use all my knowledge for when I go back to fix things. I'd have all good grades."
"Why do you plan so far ahead? Isn't it depressing?" Kiba asks sadly.
David nods. "Very. But if I don't now then I will be a wreck when I am forced to correct my mistake. I'd rather not have to relive everything again even though I could destroy everything in my way. I could save my family. No. I will save my family from that Fallen Angel. He will stop by there it is determined. I will kill that guy."
David family tragedy
I ran to the two. I shook them both. "Wake up you two! We have to hurry or we will...die?" There was no pulse in Billy..."Billy, if you don't wake up, I will take away all your toys." He didn't even flinch. "God...if you are real, unlikely, you are making your existence shorter. If you're not dead...I will try to kill you. ESPECIALLY YOU KOKABIEL! WHEN I FIND YOU TWO ONE OF US WILL DIE!"
Sarah coughed slightly. "You need...to...move on. I...as well...will be...dead soon." She coughed more with blood this time.
"No." I put my hands on her instincts kicking in. A glowing from my hand flickered and died.
She laughed with blood still flowing all over. "Nice try bro...I want you to kill those bastards. Dad...is unconscious in the wall. I will always...!?"
Ice engulfed her head. "Die." The man ran up and stomped on the ice shattering her head with more blood flooding out.
David tragedy end
They all stare at David trying to see his eyes hidden by his hair to see if the water pouring down are actual tears. Rias pats him on the back. Wrong choice.
He jumps back like a frightened little child. The eye of a little boy there. One filled full of sadness and fear.
He runs too quick out of the school for anyone to stop him letting him roam the city. Scared. They stare at his spot he was at.
"Damn. Looks like the past gets a say in things now. The Youngest Zengaria made a appearance." They all jump turning around. There in front of them is a Rina look alike except for the green hair. They all stumble back in disbelief. "I must find him. He needs to stop... running..." A little red head boy is walking inside the school gate. Behind him is a ticked off David.
"I hate you kid. Take over my body again and I will rip you into pieces. I have problems already." David growls.
The kid grins. "Soul fuse!"
Before he could even start to evaporate David stabs him through the stomach forcing the kid to stay in the open. The kid is bleeding from the the mouth and stomach now.
"Sorry kid. I already have a soul attached. Time to be sent back to where you came from." He pulls the sword out then focuses the darkness pulse into the tip of the sword. David swipes right through his chest exploding on the spot.
The Rina look alike is staring like David has killed Great Red himself. David catches a glimpse of her then flat out gapes at her. "Been a while since I assumed she died. Sister of the original Satan. Same situation as Rina. Abandoned. Devils were never the most civil." Alucon comments inside David's head.
David looks to where the boy was seeing nothing. "You killed my best friend... your ancestor...bastard. I'll be back so good-bye." She just fades into nothing after that last word.
"Kid tried to control my body while I was in a very troubled state. Of course I will be upset." David mutters.
"Let's head out to Issei's house. We all need to be comfy." Rias says.
"Yeah. Let's go. I don't think any of us have anything to do anyway." Issei agrees.
The eight walk to the house silently for one reason: thinking about something.
'Wait until I tell David about the new girl! Maybe he can go out with her and Koneko so that he has someone normal to go out with when he comes back to stop himself.' Issei thinks. Remember he wants to be a harem king. He assumes all guys are like that no matter how many beatings he gets.
"I wish there would be a new person to talk to normally. Someone that I could hang out with that isn't like you guys. No offense." David conveniently states.
Issei grins. 'This'll be fun!'
Next day in class
David walks in with a dull look. The look that most wouldn't look twice at. Why? School is so dull after his hectic adventure.
He looks around and sees a new girl. Same height. She has green eyes and neck length brown hair. Good looking actually.
"Talk to the girl! Talk to the normal female! Do it!" The First Zengaria screams in plea.
David sighs. Why not? Demanding fool. He walks to the girl whom looks to him
David holds out his hand. "Hello. My name is David. Who are you?"
She gets nervous all of a sudden. She weakly shakes my hand. "My...name is... Annabeth."
He lets go of her hand. "Want to hang out later on? At lunch?" She nods. "Cool. See you then."
'There. Are you happy now?' David asks the First Zengaria.
"Very. But something felt off about her inside her very emotion. Went from careless to a weird emotion. Looks like you got yourself an admirer." He responds as he walks to and sits in his seat.
'My love...shall be mine. I will kill whoever looks at him strangely.' The girl says in her thoughts. 'I'll follow you wherever you go.'
Alex walks in then notices David is here for once getting looks from the cute new girl. So he walks up to him grinning.
"So the ghost has returned from the dead!" Alex remarks. David looks to Alex equipped with a dull stare. He laughs. "What's up dude?"
"My family died. I've been preparing for a funeral that is happening next Monday."
He frowns sadly. "Sorry for bringing it up. I have a friend I want you to meet."
Just as he says that a tall red head girl walks in. "Alex! Where is this of yours?"
"Right here! This is David. David this is Alyssa."
She walks to me. "Hi. This fool says you are pretty cool. Don't let me down." She hands me a piece of paper. "See you later, kid."
She walks out. Alex just gapes at his friend. "Open it! She never writes to people!"
David opens it. It reads, 'Alex lied to me. Your a little bitch. Goody to shoes I bet. I hope you die by a gun in you brain.'
"Sorry dude. I'll talk to her about it. Talk to you tomorrow I guess."
The rest of class goes on. The whole time David thinks about the note as a relief. Verbal attack is better than physical attack. It hurts him a lot less.
'I never met her before. Why is she being so rude?'
"She is what I would call a bitch. Sorry David, but she hates on many people. This isn't personal." Alucon states to cheer David up.
David smiles a little. 'I guess that could be the case. At least it isn't a hostage note this time.'
"Isn't that the truth."
When lunch finally rings David gets up to walk out the door, but something pokes his shoulder lightly. He turns to Annabeth. "Do you want to hang out still?" She asks nervously.
"Of course. Are you going to have lunch?" She shakes her head at David's question. "Let's head to the roof. It's less crowded."
A dark thought passes into Annabeth's head. 'Kill the girl who insulted him.' She has seen the note he left on hit table and grabbed it before getting to David.
As they reach the roof, three girls are watching from behind with a boyfriend each except the leader girl. Alyssa. She is keeping watch to beat the two weaklings into the ground. Or so she thinks.
David and Annabeth reach the edge of the roof alone on the roof. Both of them enjoying the view of people on the ground. Looks like there is a fight going on. Oh well.
"Hey! You two are going to beat into the ground now." Alyssa states from behind the two.
"Can you fight?" She nods. "There are five of you. Is that right?" David predicts from his more sensitive senses.
Alyssa pauses. "How did you know that? You haven't even taken one look."
The two near the roof turn to the group if five. "We are going to stomp you five. I will beat the guys using one arm."
The two run at David pretty quickly for human standards. To David they are the slowest he has ever seen. Imagine if he was using his other forms making them look slower than that. Scary.
They reach him until one falls to the ground bleeding. With a knife sticking from his stomach. David gapes at the sight. Who just stabbed the guy? The other turns right around running through the door.
"I figured out what that feeling was earlier. Would you like to know?" Alucon says as I turn around to the face of a killer on Annabeth's face. "The feeling of a yandere."
"Kill the those two girls!" Alyssa growls.
Annabeth pulls out another knife grinning. David turns then runs normally as to not reveal himself and grabs all three. He then runs to the edge and throws them over. They all fall then hit the grass cracking their bones. Probably sprained. They don't die either.
"Now to deal with problem. A knife can't kill you easily so you are pretty safe. But are your friends?" Alucon asks.
David puts on the face of determination. David turns back to the killer cautiously. She is putting away her knife...embarrassed?
"Can you not treat me like the plague?" She asks.
End
Finished on 11-10.
This is great! I finished this pretty quickly too. To (AJ)Guest, I haven't seen the newest walking dead. Thanks for all the compliments! If anyone thinks the end seemed quickened with too much then you are wrong! It's called setting the stage. Did you think I would have nothing planned with this?
Again, thank you to every single soul who reads this story!
Have a great day/night/morning!
