Anything you recognise isn't mine.
Day 5: Valian and Gasper
"Okay, Gasper. I know you're scared..." Valian stepped forward, and slowly took off the bracelet that supressed Gasper's Sacred Gear. "But you're going to have to trust me here. Do you trust me?"
"I trust you, V-Valian." Gasper replied. "Are you going to help me train my Sacred Gear?"
"I am." Valian replied. "And the only way to train a Sacred Gear..." She pulled a crate towards her, opened it and pulled out a ball. "Is to practise."
"O-okay." Gasper replied, standing up, her face determined.
Valian nodded, and gently threw the ball into the air.
"Stop the ball in its tracks, Gasper!" She called, and watched the ball travelling towards Rias' Bishop. Gasper took a couple of steps away from the ball, but stared at it, focusing all her power from her eyes onto the ball.
Gasper's eyes flashed pink for a moment, and the ball stopped in its tracks. Valian began to clap, but only a second later, the ball fell to the floor.
"That was a good start!" Valian praised Gasper, a warm smile on her face. "You're only going to get better from here."
Gasper smiled in reply.
"Alright. Can you throw another one?" She asked.
"That's what I'm here for." Valian replied, picking up another ball. "Get ready, here it comes!" She threw the ball a little bit faster, and Gasper squeaked in surprise. However, she managed to stop the ball, but only for under a second, before it hit the floor.
"Good, but you need to keep your focus, Gasper." Valian gently reminded her. "Let's go for a third try." She picked up a third ball, and threw it at him. Gasper squeaked loudly in surprise, and instinctively conjured up a magic-circle shield to stop herself from getting hit by the ball.
Valian, who had picked up a fourth ball, looked over at Gasper, and sighed.
"While I did say you should have stopped the ball in its tracks, I never did say you couldn't defend yourself magically." She said. "Nice one for thinking on your feet, Gasper, though you should use your Sacred Gear during this training.
"I'm sorry!" Gasper instinctively curled up into a ball. "I'm sorry, Valian!"
"Hey, it's okay. I'm not mad at you." Valian put the ball down stepped forward, squatted down, and placed a hand on Gasper's head, rubbing her platinum-blonde hair soothingly. "It doesn't matter that you didn't do something the right way once, and only once. Hell, it doesn't matter in a fight if you use a defensive barrier or your Sacred Gear to stop something, or someone, from attacking you. But, however, it is good to have a little variety in your powers. Look at Kenji."
"How much variety does Kenji have?" Gasper asked.
"Oh, just pretty much-complete mastery in Power of Destruction and Demonic Elements..." Valian listed off on her fingers. "…extreme proficiency in both single and dual-sword styles, he's pretty good in dual-handed gunplay, and he's a fucking beast in hand-to-hand combat, though if he and his Rook were to fight using just hand-to-hand combat, Yang would win most of the time. She's more talented, but Kenji's got more power in his punches. And kicks, And headbutts." Valian rubbed her forehead at the memory of a particularly painful headbutt from Kenji she'd endured during one of their sparring sessions. She remembered that, though she was in pretty good condition before she'd received that hit, just one of Kenji's headbutts had reduced her to being almost completely unable to fight. "And that's not to mention his own Sacred Gear."
"What?" Gasper looked up. "Kenji has a Sacred Gear?"
"An Artificial one." Valian replied. "He only got it recently, but he's doing great with it. Though I do have to question why he holds it in his mouth when fighting." She shrugged, and stood up again, grabbing the ball. "Now, Gasper. Let's get back to training."
Line Break
Tobio and Issei
"Alright, Issei. Come on!" Tobio cried. "You can do this!"
Issei gave a growl of concentration, and his Boosted Gear glowed green.
["Boost x7! Transfer!"] Ddraig cried, and Issei felt his arms and legs become exceptionally powerful, for him at least. He jumped towards Tobio, and crashed his fist against the magical barrier that he'd erected.
When it refused to break, Issei whaled on it until he could see cracks forming in the barrier. He then spun around and kicked the barrier as hard as he could. The barrier shook, but did not break.
"Fuck..." Issei flopped backwards onto the ground, and panted heavily. Tobio tossed him a bottle of water, which Issei drunk, and helped him to his feet.
"You feeling alright?" Tobio asked, as Issei got up.
"Yeah... I'm okay." Issei replied, holding his head. "I still can't break that barrier you keep erecting."
["You'll make it eventually, Hyoudou."] Jin, Tobio's Sacred Gear, who was beside his host, encouraged Issei. ["I have a feeling that you'll eventually unlock Balance Breaker... wait a minute, Ddraig? Are you there?"]
["What is it, Inugami?"] Ddraig asked. ["I was trying to get to sleep."]
["Have you tried to turn your host into a Dragon?"] Jin asked, ignoring Ddraig's use of his real name. ["Because I think that would be beneficial to him. Issei, was it?"]
["Yeah, it was."] Ddraig replied.
"Wh-what will happen when I turn into a Dragon?" Issei asked.
["Your physical strength, speed and durability get ramped up,"] Ddraig began. ["You'll have a natural affinity for fire, and almost no fire attacks will even register with you, or even harm you. On top of that, you'll have much better luck with the other sex. Not that being a Cambion hampers you, ah, abilities, if your performances with your mother, your fiancé, and the nun are anything to go by."]
Jin and Tobio chuckled at the look and the blush on Issei's face after Ddraig was done.
["So, Issei."] Ddraig said. ["Will you become a Dragon?"]
"I will." Issei replied.
"Alright, Issei." Tobio said. "Go back to the house, and Ddraig can get started on the process of turning you there. I'll report to Kenji."
"See you later." Issei bade his fellow Longinus wielder goodbye, and began walking back to Kenji's house.
Line Break
Meanwhile, in a darkened part of the Underworld, Imogen Belial was striding, her grey eyes looking around, looking for the Stray Devil she was supposed to find and take care of.
She'd heard that the Stray had been luring large-chested women into its lair, which had been set up by him in the Belial Territory, and devouring the breasts to gain power.
Imogen came to a large, poorly-erected abandoned-looking building, and kicked the door open. When she looked in, she almost vomited.
Hundreds upon hundreds of females hung, either by their limbs or by their necks, all of which with their breasts physically torn off, from the walls of the building.
"Ugh..." Imogen felt bile building up inside her body, but forced it down. The Belial Heiress stepped into the building, and saw her target.
A young man with spiky, light blue hair that hung down to just above his red eyes. He was tall, wore a long trenchcoat and a pair of boxers to cover his modesty.
Imogen didn't even say a word, before she rushed at the man, and prepared to kill him with one punch. The man saw her in the nick of time, dodged, and made a grab for her breasts, making disgustingly perverted noises with his mouth and tongue.
Imogen dodged out of the way, sweep-kicked the man so he fell on the floor, hard, and stood on top of him.
"I'll give you one chance." She said, coldly. "Go back to your Master NOW, or I'll make sure you suffer horribly before you die."
"Never!" The Stray cried, trying to lunge for Imogen's breasts. "I'll have your-!" He never got to finish his sentence before Imogen kicked him, stopping his words effectively.
"Well, don't say I didn't warn you." She murmured, before placing her hand onto his head, and focusing a certain spell that Lucretia had taught her into the man's brain.
In the Stray's Nightmare:
The Stray sat up, and looked around, quite confused.
He seemed to be sat in a large, white clearing, that seemed very relaxing and calm. He turned, and saw that the body of water beside him was rippling. When he focused on it, his eyes bugged out to the sight of a woman who he could only describe as absolutely fucking GORGEOUS came out of the lake.
To him, she was the perfect woman. With a very tall, slender, well-proportioned figure (and huge breasts, which was something the Stray could appreciate), complimented by long, black hair that extended past her waist with locks of hair that framed her face down to her chin, a high forehead and dark brown eyes with long, voluminous lashes.
She wore a revealing red blouse that showed a lot of her chest and a loose sarong that exposed her long, slender legs, and red heel pumps.
The Stray gave a perverted grin. He couldn't wait to get his hands on her body, specifically, those breasts~!
The woman licked her lips, and walked towards him, slowly making to open her blouse up, and reveal her hugs breasts to the Stray, who licked his lips in reply.
But suddenly, something went wrong. Right before his eyes, the woman's breasts slowly began to shrink.
"N-no..." The Stray muttered. This image of the perfect woman was crashing around him! Her breasts had to be large!
The woman's breasts continued to shrink, further and further down, until they were nothing except a pair of very lonely (in the man's opinion) nipples.
"NO! N-NO!" The man yelled, trying to do something, anything, that might salvage the situation. When he found that he was powerless, he clutched his head and screamed, as he felt himself mentally breaking down.
End Nightmare:
While the man was rolling around on the floor, screaming in mental agony, Imogen directed a bullet of demonic energy at the man's head, and killed him on the spot.
A neutral expression on her face, Imogen left the building, utilising fire magic to burn the building to the ground.

Day 6: Kenji and Akeno
"Oh, good morning, Akeno." Venelana Bael greeted Rias' Queen as she walked through the door to the dining room. "I'm supposed to be taking you to where you'll be training today. Or rather, Kenji's said you're going to have a day off from training."
"Really?" Akeno was somewhat surprised at this, as she regarded Kenji's Fallen Saints Queen with her violet eyes. "That's... weirdly nice of him. What has he wanted me to do on my day off?"
"Whatever you want." Venelana replied. "With two certain people you need to have back in your life." Venelana created a magic-circle, and gestured for Akeno to step into it. Rias' black-haired Queen did so, and just like that, she was whisked away. Once she was gone, Venelana magic-circled away herself, so she could get to training her daughter. Or, to be more specific, ask Rias what she wanted to talk to Kenji about, when the two finally talked it out.
When Akeno came out of the magic-circle, she found herself stood in the middle of a small town. Looking around, she saw people going about their daily buisness, not even noticing that someone had just appeared out of thin air into being.
"Oh, there you are, Akeno. I've been wondering when you'd show up." A voice said. Akeno turned at the mention of her own name, and almost staggered at the sight of the person sitting on a bench behind her.
A young woman appearing to be in her late-twenties to early-thirties, with the same black hair as Akeno, but tied into a ponytail that went down to her shoulders, green eyes in the same shape as Akeno's, and the same calm smile that Akeno was so good at doing.
"M-mother?" Akeno whispered, her eyes widening.
"Yes, Akeno. It's me." Shuri replied, standing up and pulling her daughter into a hug, which Akeno returned instantly.
"B-but how? I saw you die!" Akeno asked, trying to hold in her sobs. "Right in front of me, thanks to HIM, you died!"
"Though I'm going to have to disagree with you on your opinion that Baraqiel was involved in my death, yes, I did die."
"But- but- but how are you alive, if you died?" Akeno asked, managing to reign in her tears.
"You ever hear of the Shinto Goddess, Amaterasu?" Shuri asked. When Akeno nodded, Shuri continued. "Well, out of the kindness of her heart, she granted me another chance at life, but as her vanguard. But recently, she granted me permission to join the Fallen Angels, as the Grigori and Shinto Factions signed an alliance a few weeks ago. Amaterasu is also married to my godson, can you believe it?" Akeno didn't register this last 23 words, as her mind was reeling on the single statement that Shuri made.
"You're a Fallen Angel as well, Mother?" Akeno repeated.
"I am." Shuri replied, simply. She spread her eight Fallen Angel wings, before retracting them. "I'm the Fallen Saints Queen of my husband, Baraqiel." Shuri stopped Akeno before she began a tirade about how much she hated Baraqiel with a few words. "Akeno, listen to me."
Akeno stopped, and looked at Shuri.
"I'm not sure if you're going to take my words to heart, but I'll give you these facts anyway." Shuri said. "Akeno, you need to stop blaming your father for something he didn't even do, and repair your relationship with him. Today."
Akeno made to interrupt, but Shuri wasn't done.
"Let me tell you something else, Akeno." Shuri said. "Just because Baraqiel had to go on one mission for the Grigori resulted in those bastards from my former Clan murdering me and attempting to murder you doesn't mean that it's his fault that I died. That's like blaming a human firefighter for a house burning down just because no-one called them up to report the fire, do you see what I'm saying?"
Slowly, Akeno nodded.
"I knew we'd get there in the end." Shuri smiled, nodding. "Now, let's go see him."
"W-what? Now?" Akeno looked slightly shocked. "He's here?"
"Well not here, specifically." Shuri replied. "He's in a music-shop with our godson right now, I believe. I doubt they left, since I know how Kenji can be when he gets on the drums."
"Wait, Kenji?!" Akeno's eyes now resembled saucers. "Kenji is your godson?!"
"Myself and Baraqiel are his godparents, and we consider him the son we never had." Shuri replied. "He's also the one who suggested that me and Baraqiel get re-married, but that's not exactly any of your business. Now come on."
Shuri took Akeno by her hand, and led her off to the music-shop across the road, as Akeno's mind reeled in shock. Kenji was the godson of her parents? So did that make herself and Kenji siblings?
...Maybe?
After a minute or so of walking, Akeno and Shuri reached a large music shop, and entered it. As soon as they entered, they saw two certain people coming down the stairs that led to the higher floor.
"Hey, Shuri." Kenji, clad in AC/DC top, black jeans, fingerless leather gloves, and carrying a pair of drumsticks in his hand. "Yo, Akeno."
"Hello, Kenji." Akeno greeted him neutrally. Rias' Queen was feeling extremely conflicted on Kenji, as on one hand, she disliked him greatly, for reasons that could be seen in Chapter 26, but on the other hand, she'd just found out that Kenji was, technically, family to her. And if there was one thing that Akeno wished to pride herself on, now that she'd found out with her own eyes that her mother was alive, it was to follow the lesson that Shuri had taught her when she was young, and try to embrace all family.
Hey, it wasn't anyone's fault except those now-dead fucks from the Himejima Clan that Shuri had died, and therefore made Akeno forget that lesson that Shuri taught her.
Also, Akeno just came to the realisation that everything Kenji had told her, again, in Chapter 26, was fact, and not lies, like she'd claimed.
'Maybe I should apologize to Kenji.' Akeno thought, as Kenji and Baraqiel walked past her and Shuri, and out of the store, after Kenji paid for the drumsticks that he was holding. Akeno and Shuri left the store, and stood with Kenji and Baraqiel.
"So, what're we doing?" Kenji asked, twirling one of the drumsticks in his hand.
"I figured we'd go to a café and eat." Shuri replied. "I know a really good place nearby."
"Sounds good." Baraqiel replied. Kenji and Akeno both nodded, and Shuri led them off. Akeno caught up with her mother within two seconds.
"Huh." Kenji said to Baraqiel, as the pair of them trailed a pace or two behind Akeno and Shuri, who were both talking happily. "Akeno's taken to our presence surprisingly well."
"Having the person you love the most, who you previously thought dead, alive and happy to see you, would do that to you." Baraqiel replied. "Or so I've been told."
Kenji hummed in reply, briefly thinking of Venelana, and continued walking in silence, until they reached the café. The four of them all sat down, and ordered. Akeno and Shuri ordered tea, Baraqiel ordered coffee, whereas Kenji ordered hot chocolate.
As they drank, Baraqiel and Akeno started to have an actual conversation, though it was tense. Meanwhile, Shuri talked to Kenji.
"So." She said. "Do you think your sister's peerage have a chance of beating Riser Phenex?"
"You want my honest opinion?" Kenji asked. When Shuri nodded, Kenji sighed. "I think they've got a pretty decent chance, but if I were a betting man, I'd put my money on Riser winning."
"Really?" Shuri raised an eyebrow.
"Yes." Kenji replied. "I don't doubt that they could all fight against Riser's peerage members, but I'm going to be realistic. No-one in Rias' team has a counter to the Phenex Clan's Flaming Regeneration, which heals all wounds instantly, like that of the immortal bird. Except for Akeno."
"But the problem is she just hasn't managed to accept her Fallen Angel side." Shuri nodded. "I did expect a more positive answer out of you, but I did ask you for your honest opinion."
"Rias' problem, a problem that rings true throughout her entire peerage, with the exception of her Pawn, is that she's an EXTREME optimist." Kenji said. "They all tried attacking me at the same time, like that would do any good. On the other hand, I'm a realist, who doesn't have any time for any world of make-believe."
"I like to think you're a mix between that and a pessimist." Shuri remarked, with a smirk. Kenji didn't reply to that.
Once the four of them were finished with their drinks, Baraqiel paid for them, and they all left.
"So what now?" Akeno asked.
"I think we could go to the movies." Kenji offered. "There are some pretty decent movies on, I've heard."
"Sounds like a plan." Shuri replied.
Akame and Kiba
Kiba's sword clashed with Akame's training sword (which she was using over her Teigu for obvious reasons), and felt himself being pushed back by Kenji's sole Knight.
The blonde pretty-boy landed on two feet, and rushed back at Akame, who blocked his strike, and struck him in the stomach with the handle of her sword. When Kiba instinctively bent over in pain, Kenji's red-eyed Knight struck Kiba again, this time in the head, sending him to the ground.
After a second, Kiba jumped up and growled at Akame, who had taken out a snack.
"That was a dirty move!" Kiba shouted to Akame. "A real Knight wouldn't have done that!"
"There is no 'real Knight'." Akame replied, her voice impassive as she continued eating.
"Yes there is!" Kiba strode over to Akame and pointed his sword at her. "A real Knight wouldn't have resorted to such a cowardly move. A real Knight would meet a fight with honour, and fight with everything they-"
Akame, having had enough, simply sweep-kicked Kiba while he was talking, sending him to the ground.
"It's no wonder all the 'real' Knights died out centuries ago." Akame said. "In battle, there are no rules but one: win or die. And to achieve the former, you have to do anything you can to gain the advantage, be damned to what your opponent thinks. Be it tripping them up, throwing sand in their eyes, or pulling a second sword out of nowhere, you have to be prepared. For anything."
Kiba growled, stood up, picked up his sword, and rushed at Akame, preparing to teach this liar a lesson in honour.
Not three seconds later, Kiba hit the floor again, and Akame took her snack out again.
"What?" she looked at Kiba. "Can't you expect me to want to have a snack during training, since I'm stepping in for Yang?"
Kiba gulped, and started sweating hard at the mention of the blonde woman who'd punched his lights out. It was only thanks to Valian's Jack (Albedo, her name was?) that Kiba's face hadn't been permanently disfigured from Yang's onslaught.
"Or do you want me to call her back?" Akame leant forward and grinned. "I'm sure she'll be happy to train you again."
Kiba fainted.
Kenji and Akeno
"Hey, that was a pretty good movie." Kenji remarked, as he, Akeno, Baraqiel and Shuri left the theatre.
"Yeah, it was really great." Shuri replied. "Thanks for suggesting it, Kenji. You've got a really good taste in movies."
"Not really." Kenji replied. "I just kick ass, piss off my former family, and bang girls and drums. That's me."
"Yeah, that sounds like you alright." Baraqiel grinned, for the first time today. "That, and I think Akeno's got something to say." Kenji turned to Akeno, who was looking slightly awkward.
"What is it, Akeno?" Kenji asked. "Something to say to me?"
"Y-yeah." Akeno looked to Kenji, and bowed. "Kenji, for the things I said during that afternoon in Kuoh Academy, I want to say that I'm sorry. After thinking what you told me over, I realise that I was right."
"That's quite alright, Akeno." Kenji said, after a second. "I just felt like I needed to vent my feelings on someone, and you just got caught in the crossfire."
"And I deserved it." Akeno replied. "You know..." Her face suddenly became quite a bit seductive. "I wouldn't mind my god-brother venting something else on me~" she whispered.
"God-brother?" Kenji raised a brow, completely unaffected by Akeno's attempted flirting, as he'd been the victim of MUCH more seductive beings flirting with him, his mother, Penemue and Lilith chief amongst them.
'Somehow, I think she's just flirting with me for Rias' sake.' Kenji thought, as his cynical side emerged. 'But, if she really is flirting with me, I'd be an idiot to complain. Not gonna let any biases get in the way: Akeno is hot.'
"Well, you're the godson of Mom and Dad." Akeno jerked her head at Shuri and Baraqiel. "And I'm their daughter. So I guess that makes us siblings, in a way."
"I guess that makes sense." Kenji admitted. "Rias isn't going to be happy with you, though." Akeno wrapped her arms around Kenji, and pressed her huge rack into his toned chest, covered only by an AC/DC Powerage shirt.
"What Rias doesn't know won't hurt her~" Akeno whispered. "And besides, you can't deny that having a fun time with your god-sister turns you on, even a little bit."
"Oh, definitely not." Kenji replied, his voice laced with playful sarcasm. "I can totally deny that having fun with my 'god-sister', who has the fourth-biggest breasts out of any woman I've ever seen, doesn't get my libido, which can keep up with the oldest Succubus in existence, running even a little bit... Just kidding." He added, grinning. "Of course, it does."
"Our children are getting on so well." Shuri whispered to Baraqiel.
"Yeah." Baraqiel replied, with a smile. "Kenji might be a pervert to some extent, but he's one in the good kind of way."
"Shall we head back, Akeno?" Kenji asked. When Akeno nodded, he created a magic-circle for himself. "See you later sometime Shuri, Baraqiel. And thanks for agreeing to do this with me."
"No problem, Kenji." Shuri gave him a hug, and kissed him on the forehead. She then waved her two children (one biological, one surrogate) off.
"Wait a second, YOU planned this whole day?" Akeno asked. "You got Mom and Dad to come to this town?"
"Yup." Kenji replied, with a smile. Before he could trigger the magic-circle, Akeno had momentarily pressed her lips against his.
"Thank you." She whispered. "For... helping me meet my parents again."
"No problem." Kenji replied, triggering the magic-circle and taking Akeno back to his house.
Line Break
"Hey, Yang?" Kenji walked into the living room, and saw Yang sitting on the sofa. "Do you want a spar?" It was just after dinner, and Kenji was feeling in the mood to work off the energy that the food had given him.
Kenji's sole Rook, however, did not reply.
"Yo. Yang." Kenji walked a few paces closer to Yang. "Did you hear me? I said do you want to spar?" Yang still didn't reply. When Kenji walked close enough to her he could be classed as right on top of her, Yang quickly turned around and crashed her fist against Kenji's face.
Taken completely by surprise, Kenji flew backwards, crashed through the door to his house, and rolled outside onto the snowy ground. When he picked himself up, he found that Yang was standing outside, her Ember Cecelia fully activated, and a playful smirk on her face.
"I'll take that as a 'yes', Yang." Kenji grinned, rushing forward.
"Yeah, I guess you should." Yang replied, rushing forward in turn to meet her King.
Yang threw the first punch, attempting to right-hook Kenji. Kenji ducked, and attempted to jab at her stomach, but Yang dodged to the right. Kicking Kenji in the stomach to wind him and put some distance between her and him, Yang sent two shots of demonic energy at Kenji, both of which he dodged.
Kenji ran through the next four shots Yang sent at him, and punched her in the face, sending her backwards a couple of paces. Yang ducked the instant kick that came her way, tried to sweep-kick Kenji but missed, and was met with another fist to the face, sending her off her feet. Yang landed on her feet in time to dodge the flurry of kicks Kenji sent her way, and dash behind him so she could punch him in the back of the head.
Kenji staggered forward, turned around and met Yang's headbutt with his own head. He managed to overpower Yang, dazing her for a couple of seconds, giving him the time to crash his fist against Yang's face, sending her off the summit of the mountain, and down to the outskirts of the forest two hundred metres below.
Not worried in the slightest, as his Rook had taken a FIVE-hundred metre fall before and was completely fine, Kenji floated down to the ground that Yang had landed on with his twelve wings. Landing on the ground and looking to Yang's downed body, Kenji smirked.
"Come on, Yang." Kenji teased. "You're not done yet, are you?"
"Fuck no..." Yang slowly got to her feet, her outfit tattered, and her eyes red. "I'm just getting started!"
"Glad to hear that." Kenji got back into a battle-stance, and blocked Yang's punch, which was much more powerful than anything she'd thrown at him before, but not without letting out a small hiss of pain. Dodging another punch and ducking under another kick, Kenji swerved around his Rook, and got in a couple of punches of his own, before Yang swung around, and crashed her fist against his face, breaking his nose and sending him flying backward.
Kenji flew through the air, crashed into the ground, rolled backwards a few times, and came to a stop lying on his back.
"Alright, Yang." He picked himself up, completely unaware of anything, or anyone, that was going on around him. "I think I can go another round."
"Yeah, me too." Yang, her eyes back to purple, came walking towards Kenji, cracking her knuckles. "And then we can head back to the... the..." Yang's mouth fell open in undiluted shock at something that seemed to be going on behind Kenji. "Wh-what are you all doing here?!" She asked, her eyes wide.
"Wait... the fuck are you talking about?" Kenji asked, before standing up and turning around. He then clapped eyes on nine people, who were all standing and looking at him and Yang, with about as much shock as Yang was looking at them with.
The first person was a pale-skinned young girl with pale-blue hair and long white hair that was pulled back into an off-centre bun tail, and pinned with an icicle-shaped tiara. A crooked scar ran vertically down her left eye.
Fuck, that scar must have been painful to get.
Her outfit consisted of a white, double-breasted jacket with black piping, cuffs and buttons over a white, pleated full skirt with black lace trim. She also wore a pair of white, thigh-high boots with black heels and lace-topped black stockings. She carried a rapier in her hand.
The second person was a pale-skinned young girl with amber eyes and long black hair. She was the only person to have black cat-ears on top of her head, and she wore purple eyeshadow in cat's-eye style.
She wore a long white coat with dark grey lining and a sleeveless black crop top. The crop top had rectangular and diamond shaped cut-outs around the neckline, and she wore a white belt over black fitted pants. Across her torso was a diagonal strap that contained a smaller magnetic clip that had a large cleaver in it. She wore thigh-high black heeled boots with gold-coloured edging around the top. The left boot had a belt wrapped twice around the thigh, a white pouch is attached to the back of her belt.
The third person was a tall teenage boy with dark-blue eyes and short messy blonde hair. He was quite toned, having strong-looking muscles in his arms, shoulders and upper chest.
He wore a white diamond-shaped chest plate cut off above his lower abdomen and white speeders with rerebraces set under them. Underneath the armour, he wore a black short-sleeved hoodie with detached reddish-orange sleeves. He also wore blue pants with a white patch on the left knee, as well as black sneakers. He had two belts crisscrossing his waist, both different shades of brown, with a pair of small pouches on them. He wore brown wrist-length gloves with exposed fingertips and small metal plates over the back. Strapped to his left hip was a sword, inside a sheath.
The fourth person was rather short, and had shoulder-length orange hair and turquoise eyes. She wore matching fingerless gloves and wore a white top, with a heart cut-out in the middle. She also wore a dethatched white sleeve on her left arm. Over the shirt, she wore a zippered blue-black bomber jacket with pink stripes along the sleeves. She wore a pink skirt with pleats that created some flair, and two wide belt-loops at the waist for her matching belt.
She wore knee-high pink socks just visible above her calf-length bootes, which were white with pink laces.
The fifth person wore her red hair in a waist-length ponytail, curled slightly into a loose ringlet.
She also wore light-green eyeshadow around the far upper corners of her green eyes. She was tall, and rather muscular.
Her top consisted of two layers. The top layer was a light-brown, strapless top split divided vertically with some bronze patterns. It was quite stiff, maintaining its shape without support. It also had riveting or small, round embroidery on the sides, indicating heavy stitching. The bottom layer was a low bronze V-neck. She wore an elastic, black, A-line miniskirt and brown opera-length gloves on both arms. She wore a red, ankle-length sash that wrapped around her skirt.
As for accessories, there was a small circular bronze plate by her right hip opposite two pouches with both connected to a belt. Underneath her hair, she wore a brown circlet adorned with a pair of small, green, teardrop-shaped emeralds on thin chains. She also sported a large bronze gorget around her neck, and a bronze bracelet on the upper half of her left arm. She wore a headpiece on top of her head.
Unlike everyone else except the blonde boy, the girl wore armour. She had elaborate bronze greaves that started below her mid-thigh before continuing downwards into her boots, as well as a pair of cuisses that began mid-thigh and ended slightly above her knees. She was also equipped with a bronze bracer atop the sleeve on her left arm. Her high-heeled boots were brown with bronze trim, matching her skirt and sleeves and reaching up to mid-calf. She carried a spear and circular shield.
The sixth person was a male teenager with long black hair tied into a ponytail that ended midway down his back. There was a magenta streak on the left side of his hair, which matched his eyes.
He wore a dark green, diagonally-buttoned, long-sleeved tailcoat that is red on the inside, with black and gold trimming and pink cuffs. The trimming went down the right side of his torso and formed a black collar. He wore a black, long-sleeved shirt beneath the suit, and light-tan pants with black shoes.
The seventh person appeared to be in this mid-to-late thirties, possibly his forties, and had greying black, spiky hair, red eyes, and slight stubble along his jawline. With a red, tattered cloak, he wore a grey dress shirt with a long tail, black dress pants, and black dress shoes.
He also wore a ring on his right index finger, two other rings on his right fourth finger, and a necklace with a crooked cross-shaped pendant.
The eighth person wore a shallow cut black dress, five necklaces with an assortment of beads, a red girdle-belt, and a pair of matching gauntlets. She wore fingerless gloves.
An object that looked to be made from feathers hangs from the right side of her skirt. She also wears detached black leggings with a red splatter pattern, and black leather boots beneath them.
Her face looked very similar to Yang, sharing the same youthful appearance, facial shape, and even the fringe of her hairstyle; though her hair was black with red highlights, her eyebrows were a little bit higher, her complexion significantly lighter, and there were slight age lines under her eyes. Her eyes were the same shade of red that Yang's shifted to when enraged, or whenever she activated her Semblance. Strapped to her side was a scabbard, with a sword inside it.
The ninth and final person appeared to be a middle-aged woman that had very light-blonde hair tied back in a bun with a curl hanging down the right side of her face. Her eyes were bright green and she wore thin ovular glasses. She had dangling teal earrings that matched the hanging pendant on her collar.
She wore a white long-sleeved, pleated top that had a wide keyhole neckline and gauntlet cuffs that flared in pleats at the wrist. Her lower body was covered by a black high-waisted pencil skirt with bronze buttons and black-brown stockings.
She wore black boots with bronze heels, and a cape that is purple inside and black on the outside. The cut of the cape was stylized to end in flames and arrows, with a row of diamond-shaped bronze beads on the back. She carried a riding crop in her hand, something which got Kenji to raise an eyebrow.
'Man, she has to be into BDSM.' He thought. 'And teacher play, given by her outfit.'
"Yang?!" the white-haired girl cried. "Is that you?"
"Yeah, it's me, Weiss." Yang replied. "But what are you all doing here?"
"We could ask you the same thing, Yang." The grey-haired man replied. "Who's this guy?" he pointed to Kenji.
"This guy..." Yang strode over to Kenji. "Is my boss, Kenji Baelcifer."
"Yo." Kenji greeted them with a nod and a wave.
"Wait, why is Yang calling him her boss?" the orange-haired girl asked. "Is he MIND-CONTROLLING HER?"
Kenji laughed, calmly.
"No, I'm not. Ask her if you-"
"Yeah, you are!" the girl pulled out a huge hammer of all things, and rushed at Kenji. "LET'S GET HIM!"
"Nora, don't!" Yang cried. "Kenji isn't mind-con-" But Nora jumped into the air and swung her hammer at Kenji. On instinct, Kenji put his hand up to block the hammer, and pushed backward, with enough force to send Nora tumbling to the ground.
"Nora!" the blonde guy, the red-headed girl and the black-haired guy shouted at the same time. They all drew their weapons (a sword out of the sheath (which was also a shield) for the blonde guy and a pair of green guns with sickle-like blades attached to them for the black-haired guy, and they ran at Kenji. Kenji sighed, and ducked under the blonde guy and the red-headed girl's feeble attempts to stab him, and punched them both in the stomach, sending them keeling.
Kenji sweep-kicked the black-haired guy, and sent him down. Once those three were down, the white-haired girl and the black-haired girl with cat-ears drew a rapier and a cleaver and katana, respectively, and rushed at Kenji. As well as those two, the grey-haired man drew a large sword, and ran at Kenji as well.
Kenji just sighed, and opted to summon one of his scabbards to his side, and draw a blade of water. Spinning it through the air and stabbing it into the ground, a wave of water came out of the ground, picked him up, and carried him away from the girls and guy.
After a couple of seconds, Kenji jumped off the water-wave, and delivered two quick mid-air kicks to the white-haired girl and the black-haired girl. Landing on the ground, he punched the grey-haired man in the crotch, sending him backward, reeling in pain.
Yang had been shouting for everyone to stop fighting, but no-one seemed to hear her.
Once the man hit the floor, Kenji felt the sound of displaced air moving behind him. He turned around, and caught the blade of the woman who he could only guess was Yang's mother in his hand, much to everyone's shock.
"Nice knife, black-haired red-eyed slightly bigger-titted version of Yang." He remarked, a playful grin on his face. "I would show you mine, but I wouldn't want to destroy these people's innocence." The red-eyed woman blushed slightly, and Kenji swung the sword away from himself, sweep-kicked her, sending her down as well.
Kenji looked up, and saw debris flying at him. Opening a magic circle with one hand, Kenji sent a couple of short blasts of the Power of Destruction at the debris, destroying it on the spot.
The final woman who was still standing widened her eyes in shock, giving Kenji the chance to rush at her, but two voices yelled out at the same time. The first being Yang's.
"STOP IT!" she'd roared, at the top of her lungs. The second voice came from someone who had been attracted to the commotion by the noise.
"UNCLE QROW!" Ruby squealed, jumping into the grey-haired man's arms (Qrow had just gotten up), knocking him down again.
"Ow..." he moaned, massaging a rib. "Good to see you, pipsqueak." He looked up at Kenji. "Wh-who are you?" he asked, hissing in pain from his bruised rib. "You kicked all our asses without even trying. Not even Oz would be able to do that."
"I'm the dude who's been taking care of Yang and Ruby ever since they arrived at my place." Kenji replied. "Kenji Baelcifer. And if you want, you can come with me to my house, where we can talk about... certain topics." His eyes flicked to Yang and Ruby.
"Sure." Qrow slowly stood up, the other seven people doing the same.
"Alright." Kenji drew his sword, and swung it, creating a large magic-circle. "Everyone walk through here, and you'll be at my place."
Kenji and Yang walked through the magic-circle, and after looking at each other for a second or two, the nine people whose asses Kenji wrecked walked through the circle.
Day 7
Penemue and Koneko
"...What are we doing today?" Koneko asked Kenji's Jack, slowly shifting herself into a battle-stance.
"Something that doesn't involve battle, Shirone." Penemue replied, calmly ignoring Koneko hissing in anger as she mentioned her real name. She opened a magic-circle and stepped it. "Come on." She insisted, and Koneko, after a couple of seconds, came in.
One flash later, Penemue and Koneko were stood in a room with two chairs, a table, and various refreshments on said table. One of the chairs was empty, whereas the other one was occupied by-
"Kuroka." Koneko growled. She still didn't want to talk to her big sister, the person who had ruined her life.
"Hello Shirone, nya." Kuroka greeted her little sister. "Penemue, are you staying here, nya?"
"Yeah." Kenji's oldest foster sister leant against the wall. "Kenji's orders. He'd be here himself, but he called out on a Stray Devil hunt by Azazel. He told me Valian and Venelana were doing other stuff, so I had to step in."
"Alright, nya." Kuroka replied, nodding. "Shirone, nya. Before you do or say anything, just have a look at this, nya."
Kuroka extracted a few sheets of paper, and handed them to Koneko, who took them, still looking suspicious. From what it seemed, it looked like a transcript of an interview.
"...What's this?" Rias' Rook asked.
"It's the recording of the interrogation that Kuroka went through to prove herself innocent, under Grigori law. Everything Kuroka said was done under a truth spell that is known and used by quite a few of the Norse Gods, so the chances of Kuroka lying under that are astronomically small."
Koneko remained silent, as she looked over the papers that detailed Kuroka's interrogation. It told of how Kuroka had heard that their previous master, a member of the Belphegor Household, wished to gain Kuroka and Koneko's power of Senjutsu and Youjutsu, without learning it himself, so he planned to steal the blood from Kuroka and Koneko, after taking them in himself.
Kuroka had heard her former master plotting this, and out of wishing to protect her little sister, had killed her previous master.
This was an extremely different story compared to the one she'd heard from Rias, from Rias' father, and all of Devil society. But given that it was from her big sister, and under a truth spell used by Gods...
When Koneko thought about it, this was very hard to dismiss as just an excuse for Kuroka's crimes.
"And if you want more evidence, Shirone..." Penemue added. "We got one of Kuroka's memories, too." Penemue opened a magic-circle, and it began playing a video recording, from Kuroka's point of view.
The memory showed Kuroka and Koneko's former master, stood in front of a blood extracting machine, and giving an overly clichéd monologue about how weak he was, and how gaining the power of Senjutsu and Youjutsu would make him much more powerful, maybe even eligible for becoming a Satan.
Koneko's eyes widened, and began to fill with tears. Kuroka... had been right?
The memory then showed, from Kuroka's point of view, how she killed her master, and then the memory ended.
Kuroka looked at her sister, and pulled her into a hug, as she saw that Koneko was crying.
"Kuroka...!" Koneko sobbed. "I'm so sorry... you must hate me..."
"I don't hate you, Shirone, nya." Kuroka replied, slowly rubbing circles into Koneko's back. "I never have, and I never will." She just held Koneko in her arms, and nearly burst into tears with happiness when Koneko wrapped her arms around Kuroka's back, hugging her.
Kuroka looked past Koneko, and saw Penemue grinning at the two of them.
"Thanks for doing this, Penemue, nya."
"No problem, Kuroka." Penemue replied, magic-circling away, leaving the two Nekoshou sisters to hug things out.
Venelana and Rias
"Okay, Rias." Venelana addressed Rias, while setting a map of Kuoh Academy (that was to scale) down on the table. "As far as I understand it, Riser Phenex is letting you choose the arena for the Rating Game, and you selected Kuoh Academy, right?"
"I did, Mother." Rias replied, nodding. "Why does that matter?"
"It matters, Rias, because being given the choice of the arena for a Rating Game gives you an extreme tactical advantage." Venelana replied. "You have complete freedom over what turf you play on, so you're advised to choose an area that is suitable to you."
"That's what I did." Rias replied. "So why are we here?"
"We're here, Rias, to discuss possible methods of going about the Rating Game." Venelana replied. "Tactical ways." She added. "Have you any thoughts?"
"Well..." Rias replied. "I thought that I'd send Kiba around this area," she traced a route that would take Kiba through the tennis-courts and to the side of the New School Building. "Koneko and Gasper this way" she indicated a route through some woodland and to the left side of the New School Building. "Issei through the middle and have Akeno in the air supporting him."
"Hm, that is a good idea." Venelana replied, thinking for a second. "But I would have Kiba take the longer route" she traced the route through the woodland. "As he's a Knight, and the fastest member of your peerage, so he'd get there faster, you know?"
"That sounds reasonable." Rias replied. "Any other suggestions?"
"Apart from just that one, not particularly." Venelana replied. "Tactics are more Valian and Kenji's forte."
"Speaking of Kenji..." Rias said. "You said that you would tell me about some of the... stuff, you've done with him."
"Oh yeah." Venelana replied. "I would." Venelana then came over with a rather lusty, reminiscent look on her face. "Well, one really fun time was when I put a body-control spell on Kenji, and made him fuck me until he fell unconscious." Rias blushed hard at the thought of Venelana controlling Kenji's every move while she made him fuck her in every possible manor.
Unconsciously rubbing her legs together, she asked:
"Any other ones?"
"Well, there are some really fun roleplay fuck-sessions we've had." Venelana smiled. "My favourite is when Kenji is a cop and fucks me while I'm cuffed down, but I know that his favourite is when he fucks me while I'm dressed up as a teacher. Those times were hot, that's for sure."
Rias only blushed harder, and her hand (which was on her knee) slowly began to move in between her legs. She'd definitely be having some lewd thoughts involving herself and Kenji tonight. And probably in the ways Venelana was describing to her.
"There are the normal sex sessions we have as well" Venelana shrugged. "But my favourite times is when Kenji ties me up and treats me like his sexual pet, who serves her master's needs whenever and however he sees fit."
Rias gulped, and started involuntarily rubbing inside her lacy thong that she was wearing.
All of those sessions that her mother had described her performing with Kenji were hot, she had to admit, but...
The idea of being Kenji's pet, and being used and dominated by her handsome- no, not handsome, downright fucking HOT younger brother, in any way he wanted?
THAT was hot. And the subject of a LOT of her secret hentai collection.
"Hey, Rias?" Venelana asked. "Are you alright? You look a little flushed."
"Y-yeah. I'm okay." Rias replied. "I think I know what strategy I'm going to go for with my peerage for the Rating Game, thanks Mom." With that, Rias hurried out of the kitchen, and Venelana grinned.
'I know that look.' She thought. 'And it's good for her to have that. Nothing wrong with me gently pushing siblings to love each other.'
Line Break
Sat in the main living room of Kenji's mansion, a day after having their asses kicked in by Kenji himself, were Weiss Schnee, Blake Belladonna, Jaune Arc, Nora Valkyrie, Pyrrha Nikos, Lie Ren, Qrow Branwen, Raven Branwen and Glynda Goodwitch, who were all sat on various sofas. On a sofa that faced all the sofas that everyone was on, sat Ruby Rose and Yang Xiao Long, with the sexy, silver-haired Valian Lucifer sat between them.
The twelve of them were all talking, and I'll give you one guess about what.
"So," Qrow said, taking a drink from his hipflask. "The three of you are Devils?"
"Technically." Valian replied. "The three of us are hybrids between Devils, Fallen Angels, Dragons and Vampires. Observe." Valian, Ruby and Yang stood up, and all revealed their hybrid wings.
The bases of their wings were very akin to a bat's wing, but the wings had membrane underneath them, like a typical dragon would. Behind each wing hung a sheet of black feathers, akin to a small cloak. Valian had ten of these wings, whereas Ruby and Yang had six.
After a few seconds, the three of them retracted their wings and sat down.
"Any other questions?" Valian asked.
"I've got one." Blake replied. "How did Yang and Ruby become Devils? As far as I understand it, you were born one, Valian?"
"I was." Valian replied. "And I'm not sure I can really explain how Yang and Ruby became Devils, or Hybrids, to be more specific. You'd be better off asking Kenji."
"Did someone mention my name?" Everyone looked up, and saw Kenji, clad in Avenged Sevenfold T-shirt and jeans, his hair looking slightly damp, walking into the room. He vaulted over the sofa Valian, Yang and Ruby were on, and sat down in between Valian and Ruby. "Yo, everyone. You feeling better after I kicked your collective asses?"
"Yeah, very much better." Qrow replied, sarcastically. "Blake, didn't you want to ask Kenji something?"
"Oh, yes." Blake turned to Kenji. "Kenji, was it?"
"Mmmhmm."
"How did Yang and Ruby become Dev- can I just call them Devils for the sake of simplicity?"
"Sure." Kenji replied. "You're technically not wrong when you call them Devils."
"Thanks." Blake replied. "How did Yang and Ruby become Devils?"
"Hmm, good question." Kenji replied. "Let me do a Shakespeare and answer your question with one of my own: Are you familiar with the game of chess?"
Everyone nodded.
"Well, when they reach a certain rank, or a certain age, Devils like myself can receive a set of 15 Evil Pieces, which have the appearance of chess pieces." Kenji summoned a chess set from Venelana's bedroom (he enjoyed playing against Venelana from time to time), took out the pieces and placed them on the table between the sofa he was on, and the sofa closest to him, which just so happened to have Qrow, Blake and Weiss on it.
"As the person who received the Evil Pieces in the first place, I'm the 'King'." Kenji explained, holding up the King piece. "There used to be King Pieces when the Evil Pieces were first created, but they were discontinued for unknown reasons."
"Do the pieces have any special traits, like in the actual game?" Jaune asked.
"Yup." Kenji replied the 'p' in his reply. "Let's start with the Pawn." He picked one up. "Just like in the actual chess game, Pawns, when they make it deep enough into enemy territory or with permission from their King, can be promoted, to any piece besides the King. Pawn pieces on their own don't have any special qualities, they're generally considered the foot-soldiers of a peerage. With me so far?"
Everyone nodded, and Raven gave an 'Mmmhmm.'
"Good." Kenji replaced the Pawn piece, and picked up the Knight piece. "Next is the Knight. Knights, by default, have increased speed and mobility, enabling them to perform fast attacks and other manoeuvres. However, it doesn't take many hits to defeat a Knight, so if they're not careful, they go down fast."
Kenji replaced the Knight and picked up a Bishop.
"Next, the Bishop. Bishops have really high magical reserves, so they can cast more spells, more powerful spells, than most Reincarnated Devils. However, they, by default, aren't very quick, nor are they good in physical combat." Kenji replaced the piece, and pulled out the Rook piece.
"Now for the Rook." Kenji said. "Rooks have incredible physical strength, leading to most of them being extremely good in hand-to-hand combat- what is it, Pyrrha?"
"I'm going to take a wild guess and say that Yang is one of your Rooks?" Pyrrha asked.
"You'd be right." Kenji replied. "Yang's my only Rook." He continued from where he left off. "Like in the game, Kings can perform a special move known as Castling, which means that they can switch the places of themselves and one of their Rooks. Like this." Kenji and Yang both disappeared through a magic-circle, and reappeared again, where the other one was a second ago.
"And back again." Kenji and Yang disappeared through a magic-circle, and reappeared in their original places. "Finally..." He replaced the Rook piece, and pulled out the Queen piece. "The Queen. Anyone want to guess what special power the Queen has?"
Everyone was silent as they tried to think.
"Nobody?" Kenji raised an eyebrow. "Well, it doesn't matter, as that was a trick question. Queens have enhanced speed, strength and magic, like Knights, Rooks and Bishops, and they are a perfect combination of the three. Anything else you want to ask?"
"I've got a question." Weiss replied. "What piece is Ruby, if she serves under you?"
"She's a Pawn." Kenji replied. "One of my eight Pawns." Kenji neglected to mention the concept of Mutation Pieces, as he thought that that could wait until another day. "Valian here is my Queen, as well as my wife." Kenji and Valian shared a quick kiss.
"Do you have other peerage members?" Ren asked.
"I do." Kenji replied. "I have eight Pawns, like I said, one Knight, two Bishops, one Rook, and a Queen."
"So you have one Knight and one Rook leftover." Glynda surmised.
"Indeed, I do." Kenji replied. "But that's not all the possible pieces I have in my arsenal." He pulled out a deck of cards, extracted fourteen of them (including the joker), and laid them on the table. "Thanks to... certain circumstances, I was able to get my hands on a deck of the Fallen Saints, which is basically the Fallen Angel's equivalent to the Evil Pieces."
"Do the cards have different traits as well?" Nora asked.
"No, they don't, as far as I know." Kenji replied. "The Fallen Saints function just like the Evil Pieces, but instead, they're a deck of cards."
"So you can have a Queen, Jack, 10 to 2 and Ace?" Qrow asked.
"Yup." Kenji replied.
"So you, for all intents and purposes, have command over two peerages?" Raven asked.
"You guessed it." Kenji replied. "For my Fallen Saints, I have a Queen, Jack, 10, 8, 7, 6, and Ace." Weiss and Blake looked at each other, and both nodded to each other.
"What are you two silently communicating about?" Kenji asked, a hint of amusement in his voice. "It's about how badass and handsome I am, isn't it?"
"N-no." Weiss replied, though Kenji did catch a blush on her face. "Blake and I want to join one of your peerages."
"...Come again?" Kenji raised a brow.
"Weiss and I have decided that we want to join one of your peerages." Blake replied, evenly. "Before you arrived, Ruby told us about how Devils have a lifespan vastly superior to humans, or Faunus like us. So even if we were to take Yang and Ruby back to Remnant with us, they'd outlive us a hundred times over."
"That's pretty smart. You're smart. I like you." Kenji replied, with a smirk, making Blake blush. "Well, I'm not turning you down or anything like that, so don't think I am. But I really think you should think over what you're asking of me. Becoming a Devil isn't something you can just go back and forth in between. It's a full-time thing. And though I don't tend to order either of my peerages around that much, something Ruby and Yang can vouch for if you ask them, you'd basically place yourselves completely at my command." Weiss paused before trying to speak again, but she was interupted by Kenji.
"Just some food for thought." Kenji winked at the nine people in front of him. "By the way" he stood up and turned before leaving. "If any of you" he gestured to the others. "Want to join up with me or Valian, she's got a deck of Fallen Saints as well, neither of us will be far away. Also, you're welcome to stay at my house if you want, I've got more than enough rooms to accommodate all of you."
With that, Kenji left the room.
"One last thing." Valian said, before standing up. "If you have any other questions about the supernatural world, you can ask Yang or Ruby, since I know you know them best. If they can't answer, come to either myself, Kenji, or Kenji's Fallen Saints Queen, Venelana Bael." She extracted a picture of Venelana, and tossed it down on the table. With that, Valian left the room.
No-one did anything for ten seconds, before one person made a movement.
Qrow took out his flask and started drinking again.

Preview of next chapter:
Rias walked through the forest, until she reached a clearing, with a large body of water in the very middle of it. When she looked closer, she saw that the water was slowly rippling, before, to her immense shock, a Great White Shark jumped out of the water and towards her.
Rias made to shriek in terror, before the animal shrunk very quickly right before her eyes, and turned into her brother, Kenji. His hair and clothes were sopping wet.
"Hello, Rias." Kenji greeted his older sister, pulling his shirt off his body, wringing it out, and slinging it back on, before he strode over to a tree, and plopped down under it. "Mom said you wanted to talk to me?"
Rias nodded.
See you later!
