The Dragon Joker Chapter 10
Hello Sorry for the wait. This is the first half of the Yokai Academy Arc.
I own nothing!
:Chapter Start:
Yokai Academy-Prison Cells under Yokai Academy-where they held the human intruders.
Setsuna groans as she awakens to find her face in a puddle and her arms and wings bound to her body, her uniform apparently was torn by clawed hands after she had been knocked out. Setsuna looked around and saw that she was in a barred cell which had what appeared to be a timid schoolboy guarding them with a spear, as Moka and Koneko were in separate cells only Koneko was seen unamused as she was fully awake and her eyes were glaring at the guard while she was wrapped in oversized chains.
Setsuna then looks closer at Moka and see that she was unconscious and in pain as she wore a wet with water Kouh uniform. Setsuna growls and says, "What is wrong with you lot, don't you know that water can be lethal to Vampires!" The guard flinched before running away in a panic. Setsuna sighs before asking Koneko, "Where are we?" though she was then looking to the fourth cell which had a chained up food cooler and heavily pad locked that begins to suddenly shake.
Koneko continues to frown and says, "Yokai Academy."
Kouh Academy-Club Meeting room-sunset
"Yokai Academy," said the Witch Slave that was left behind after she awoke to discover that all her injuries and scars had been healed by a drunk nun. The little witch was sitting on a comfortable chair in front of Rias after being healed as much as possible. The little witch introduced herself as Yukari and that was it, apparently the culture of Yokai Academy considered anything partially human as nothing more than a toy or a Slave with no choice. In Yukari's case, she was accepted early into Yokai Academy for her grades only for the previous Principle to have been 'Assassinated' by a human who somehow broke past the barriers that only the Principle could deactivate enough for a human to even enter the school grounds and even then only a specific human unless he wanted the entire Human Race to walk right in. Yukari then says, "They talked around me, not caring that I was there, but the entire leadership of Yokai Academy were replaced with parasites that have taken control of them. Apparently they keep a portion of the powers from previous hosts."
Yokai Academy-Student Council room-That Moment
Fang stood in front of the Yokai Student Council the leader appeared to be a fusion of Dragon and human, as he walked around only partially disguised as human and a dragon. All of Fang's compatriots had been devoured as soon as he entered the Student Council Chamber, except for Cloud and the Metal Werewolf, who actually succeeded in their mission. The student Council President spoke, "You succeeded in capturing the Akashiya Member?"
Fang then spoke up, "I said that we would my King," Fang was neutral in the tone of his voice.
The Student Council President or King as he likes to be referred as smiles and says, "Good, as promised you may have your reward, he is with the Disciplinary committee at this moment. With the Vampire in our possession then we shall announce our intent to the school as we publicly consume that Vampire," with that then entire School Council shivered like liquid as they laughed along with them.
Fang simply walked out the room and across the school campus to a separate building holding a scroll as he entered the Disciplinary Committee Clubroom where he speaks to the leader, "The Student Council wants to speak with you," with that the leader of the club smirks, wearing a military styled blue uniform, with blonde hair reaching the back of his knees, with small circles acting as eyebrows. Fang followed behind the Club President until they were alone and the Club President could see nothing as he screams in terror as he ceases to exist.
Kouh Academy-Occult Research Clubroom-an hour after dark
Issei was staring out the window as Yukari was sleeping on a couch after crying herself to sleep after Akeno made her some dinner to eat. Rias was sitting at her desk as Akeno helped Ravel and Asia sleep off the poison. Kiba and Xenovia were training outside before they would leave for Yokai Academy. Delsin and Jirou went outside to watch Kiba and Xenovia training. Rias and Issei were deep in thought when Rias spoke up, "We have to stop them," Issei nods in agreement before Rias adds, "This will not be like Riser or the Fallen Angels. This will be us versus and army of Monsters, with different abilities and forms."
Issei nods saying, "Yeah, probably would be a perverts dream come true or nightmare. Though Parasites replicating powers and controlling hosts? That does not make sense."
"You think something else is going on?" Rias questioned.
"It is just a feeling I am having," Issei admits before asking, "Do we have any idea on how we get to the school of Monsters?"
Rias hums before saying, "Yes, I know how to get there," Issei's eyebrow raised as Rias continued, "Originally I was going to go to Yokai Academy for school only they did not have the first couple grades for new students. So I came to Kouh Academy and have loved it ever since."
Issei frowns at that before he smiles and says, "Good, I would not have been bewitched if you had," getting her to snort in amusement before he continues, "Question now is why now?"
Rias frowns after her brief chuckle before thinking on this, "Yokai Academy would have accepted your year level this year."
"Meaning they were after someone," Issei mentions before saying, "So Moka?"
"Was meant to go to Yokai Academy where she would have been captured then," Rias states before commenting, "Akashiya?" she thinks carefully before she pulled out a book and quickly reviews it's contents before her eyes widen and she groans and says, "She is the half breed daughter of The Leader of Japan's Vampire Community. Who is a big supporter of Humans, who wants to coexist with humans."
Issei frowns, arms crossed and says, "How bad is this?"
Rias sighs and says, "War if we fail," she palms her face and mutters, "War if we do nothing."
Issei was silent before Devlin walks into the room and quickly followed by Jirou and Devlin says, "We want in on this."
Issei frowns and says, "You have no stake in this," Devlin shouts in response, "Then make it so it is!" Issei frowns at that before commenting, "You won't be human anymore."
Jirou comments, "I am already not human."
Devlin says, "Dude, we heard what happened to Yukari and I doubt she was the first. Besides I owe you devils one might as well be worth it."
Rias looks at the pair before turning to Issei and says, "Well, I give you the choice Issei, I only have one Rook left and I don't want to use it yet."
Issei frowns at that before she handed him his Evil Pieces and looks at the remaining ones he has, eight pawns, one knight, one bishop, two rooks, one queen. Though he notices that two pieces glowing, both rooks. Issei hands Devlin the Bishop and Jirou the Rook and asks, "Do you accept the responsibility of to guard those we protect?"
"Yeah/that is implied," Devlin/Jirou states before the two fell to their knees suddenly as they both had devil wings appeared from their lower backs and they had transformed into devil hybrids.
Rias states, "Congratulations, you are now devils," Devlin simply rubs the base of his new wings.
Devlin asks, "Well that hurt."
Issei then states, "Rooks increase the strength and defence of that devil."
Devlin then asks, "What is the plan?"
"We take the Revolgarry to act as a forward base and with Phillip, Asia and Ravel will be inside while the rest of us starts scoping Yokai Academy," Issei states as he returned to looking out the window where Kiba and Xenovia was training.
"Not without me," said the tired voice of Yukari as she sat up and cleared her eyes of gunk before she continues, "I know where you can hide near the entrance of the Academy grounds. Though the entrance is next to a cliff over a lake, so don't turn right at the tunnel exit."
Rias then spoke up, "Good, Issei's tank will be difficult to hide when we get there. We leave at Dawn," with that she contacted Akeno with the plan. Issei was calm before Rias states, "Phillip will make a full recovery the poison was lethal to normal humans, I was surprised that he was even injured in such a way."
Issei thinks on Philip and says, "Understandable, easy to forget that Philip is human, with his brains it is easy to forget."
Jirou sat with Yukari as Devlin leaves intending to get something to eat for everyone. Issei was deep in thought, while Rias watched him carefully concern on her face. It has been several hours since their friends had been taken, Rias knew that Koneko could handle herself, Setsuna with her sword maybe, but Rias has no idea what Moka was like in a fight. Rias' thoughts was more concerned with Issei as he appeared more silent than usual.
Yokai Academy-Human Cells-Hour before Dawn
Moka started to awaken as her uniform was mostly dry as she was waking up, Moka sat up and looked around in confusion seeing Koneko in oversized chains and Setsuna dirty with chains binding her arms. Moka raised herself to her knees and asks, "Where are we?" as a couple new guards walked down into the small prison where one holds a bucket of water and splashed her.
Moka screamed in pain as Setsuna shouts, "You are killing her!" Moka collapsed and fell unconscious again.
The guards speak up, "Two days from now the ritual will be done and we will be taking the Human World for ourselves from humans and you disgusting half breeds," with that the two guards left them alone with Moka to groan in pain while Setsuna started pacing the bars of her cage while the sealed box started shaking violently like a dancing toaster.
Philip's Hanger-Just before Dawn
Philip was using a cane to help him move around the room, as he wrote on his whiteboards. Before they attacked Yokai Academy, his topic was the different Yokai's and their weaknesses. Unfortunately he could not list everything as Yokai Academy has everything from living objects to kaijus and every combination between, which is why Philip dropped his book in annoyance as Issei arrived with Rias, Devlin, Jirou, Yukari, Kiba and Xenovia ready to leave. Akeno stepped out of the bed room with Ravel and Asia, both hung over from the poison. Asia was squinting while Ravel took a pair of Philip's sunglasses from his chest of stuff, Asia continued to squint until Ravel placed another pair of sunglasses on her face causing her to thank Ravel.
Rias then says, "Everyone onto the RevolGarry," she was handed the a Beetle Phone from Philip where she blinks at the controls before handing it back to Philip and saying, "Just get us to the tunnel north side of Kouh I will then cast the spell to open the gateway."
Philip nods as everyone was loaded into the open RevolGarry along with the HardBoiler before the roof closed over them causing them to kneel to avoid the roof closing on them. Philip controlled the vehicle out the hanger before it shut on itself as they sped out the town and towards the tunnel leading out of town where Rias preformed the Spell that Yukari gave her to open the portal leading to Yokai Academy where they sped through the rainbow portal leading to a dimensional pocket with red sky and ocean, on a cliff where the forest was filled with tombstones and foot paths. One of the windows opened enough for Issei to look outside and comment, "Is this really a school it looks more like a graveyard."
Yukari quietly directed Philip further up the cliff path past an abandoned bus where an old bus driver could be seen smoking and not caring about the intruders. The RevolGarry moved to an old barn where it turned around and reversed into the building before everyone stepped out the vehicle and Issei was looking outside as look out. Rias spoke up, "Okay everyone summon your familiars or start searching the forest around the school."
With that Rias summoned her bat familiar, Asia her small dragon, Rusei, Akeno her Oniis, Kiba his sparrow, Issei released his Gaia Memory Gadgets while Ravel summoned a tropical bird familiar. The Familiars left quickly, before Issei spoke up, "I am going to check something, everyone should keep their guard up," Issei placed his fedora on and walked along the path they came in and to the bus where the old Bus driver was smoking and reading a old newspaper. Issei knocked on the bus door and asks, "So what is the deal with Yokai Academy?"
The Bus Driver puffs some smoke from his cigar and says, "How should I know, I am just a bus driver."
Issei simply counters with, "Of a school of monsters."
The Bus driver nods before saying, "Yokai Academy was subjected to a new set of students that no one expected to be a problem until they were," with that Issei started to listen intently.
Human Cells-An hour later
Setsuna was watching Moka intently as she was still in pain from the water. Koneko to the side was slowly stretching the chains around her to break free with her Rook enhanced strength. It was slow going. Koneko and Setsuna together managed to scare off every guard that came down to guard them with a glare each. So now they were alone, Koneko next to Moka's cell while Setsuna was across from Koneko. The crate had stopped shaking and Koneko was hearing some muttering about how to break out of a box from the inside. Koneko spoke up, "Who are you? The one in the box?"
The box stopped muttering before a voice suddenly shouts from inside the sealed crate, "IS SOMEONE OUT THERE!? THOSE BASTARDS LOCKED ME INSIDE FOR NO GOOD REASON!" there was a pause until the voice in the box shouts, "AND PLEASE TELL ME THAT I HAVEN'T MISSED THE LATEST SEASON OF MAGICAL GIRL MILKU!"
Koneko simply says, "Perverted box," Setsuna shakes her head as the box continued to shout for attention. This continued until they both had to contain a laugh as the box suddenly flipped while jumping into the air and landing on the lid and the box saying some childish insults, before he paused and suddenly the box started bouncing back and forth inside the cell causing the box's outer shell to crack.
The box stopped moving with the crack facing the back of the cell as the Guards walked down to the cells to find nothing strange before leaving without a word. The Box then started to shutter as if a bouncing ball was bouncing inside none stop for several minutes before stopping and they notice the glyph on the side that was glowing until it cracked and they hear a light snoring come from the box.
Abandoned Barn-Near the cliffs of Yokai Academy-Sunset
Issei returned to the barn to see Philip righting in a couple text books, everything he learnt from his library. Rias was sitting on a lawn chair they had brought being served tea, appearing calm but Issei did notice the shaking of her hand between taking sips. Akeno serving her tea as they went, Asia was using her Sacred Gear on Philip again to ensure that he was fully healed. Kiba and Xenovia was not there due to getting a closer look with their enhanced speed. Ravel appeared to be meditating while Jirou was keeping an eye out and Devlin was missing.
Issei looked around and asks, "Well what did everyone else discover?"
Rias answered, "Our Familiars all overheard announcements of an assembly tomorrow at noon. Devlin found some old air vents and has yet to return. Kiba and Xenovia are scoping the main buildings in order to map out the area. Yukari is currently taking a nap," she pointed to the closed Revolgarry Yukari was sleeping in. Issei looked inside and could only frown in concern as Rias says, "We had to place a sleep spell on her as she started to panic."
Issei frowns before Saying, "Jirou will stay with her and Philip here. We should get a closer look perhaps at this meeting assembly point."
Rias nods in understanding as Devlin appeared out a vent shaft and says, "Oh, found them," everyone looked to Devlin as he rolled his shoulder in pain, "They are under the main compass, but apparently all the entrances are sealed with magic that blocked me smoking through gaps. Every door was locked with padlocks and stuff."
Issei frowns at that before asking, "Did you get a good look on how to get there?" Devlin smirks before revealing the map he found in the guard room. Issei looked over the map before turning to Rias, "Can you make that communication spell that we used against Riser?"
Rias smirks and creates several white orbs appeared and floated to everyone's left ear as she says, "With these we can contact one another to form the plan. Let's go," with that Rias and Akeno took to the skies while Issei and Devlin followed their map to get to the school grounds to use a secret tunnel to reach the Human Prison. Ravel and Asia stayed behind to act as support. Issei and Devlin found the entrance to the tunnel they were searching for and after a short look around they then rushed down the tunnel a couple minutes before Fang, Cloud and Metal Werewolf paused at the entrance.
Fang sniffs the air and says, "Wolf head for the cliffs find the other intruders, Cloud shall we destroy the humans that decided to invade our fortress?" with that the three shifted in pleasure while Wolf started walking to the cliffs as Fang and Cloud walked into the tunnel.
With Jirou-edge of the barn looking towards where Issei and Devlin had gone.
Jirou was staring down the path Issei had gone twenty minutes prior when his sensors spoke up, "Everyone get down, one of the Yokai who attacked us is coming, but he appears different he is heavier." Asia, Ravel and Philip join Yukari in the Revolgarry and remained hidden as Jirou stepped out to face the Yokai. Jirou was fifteen metres from Wolf as the two glared at each other.
Wolf spoke, "you should not have come here human," before shifting into full werewolf mode with metal plates covering his body. The Metal Werewolf stepped forward every step creating a deep crater slowly with a claw raised and was brought down on Jirou who raised an arm below the claw catching the claw before using his other arm to punch the Metal Werewolf back. The Wolfman ripped of chunks of his armour and threw them at Jirou only for the metal to bounce off Jirou's body.
Jirou was lightly scratched as he lowered his arms in neutral expression on his face as his right eye glows blue and left red at his waist a belt with what appears to be a half red half blue dial on the front started rotating with sparks. Jirou stares at the Metal Werewolf and says, "Switch On," with that Jirou's body was replaced with an amalgamation of two robots, with sections of green metal plate replacing sections of his body, his right half a sleek blue and yellow metal while his left side was red and gun grey and appeared to be an hastily put together, with a slightly larger hand that was bladed. Jirou simply says, "I am Kikaider!" before charging forward and kneeing MW in the chin knocking him back and denting the metal body.
Kikaider started beating into the metal monster leaving dents and cracks until the Metal Werewolf's right arm suddenly burst with plant-like growths before turning into wood and was swung faster, knocking Kikaider back.
With Issei and Devlin-tunnels-that moment
Devlin led Issei through the vented tunnels towards the cell area, frowning as they walked until they reached the first gate. They just needed to get past this first gate then they would reach the human cell area and could escape quickly. They stopped at the gate when Devlin pushed Issei out the way of Fang speeding forward to stab Issei in the back only to stab through Devlin's body as it turned to smoke before Devlin used the chain around his left hand to bash Fang's face and knock him away. Fang dodged the attack as Devlin broke the gate for Issei and himself to get through.
Only one problem Cloud was there and Devlin simply says, "I got rainy," Cloud growls and charges Devlin as a cloud of smog while Devlin's chain was covered him smoke and whack him back. Devlin smirks before Cloud grits his teeth and charged forward as a lightning cloud and grabbed Devlin and slammed him into a wall. Devlin grabs Cloud as Issei drew the Joker Gaia Memory and Devlin then slammed Cloud into the with a vent outside and sped through that vent fighting. The Venting system was damaged as the two fought through the vents collapsing the path back as they smashed out the vent near the barn to see Kikaider fighting and amalgamation of a tree, metal and a werewolf.
Devlin formed next to Kikaider while cloud reformed next to the Werewolf creature. Kikaider simply says, "Hello Devlin, did you find the girls?"
"Nope," Devlin states before briefly looks to Kikaider and says, "Couldn't decide what colour you wanted?" Kikaider turned his side slightly confused before Devlon wraps his arm in his chain and says, "What happened to your Dance Partner?"
Kikaider turns back to his silent opponent and says, "His arm transformed organically into a different element," his tone indicated he did not care which was met with Cloud's left arm, right leg and the right side of his face bursting into flames while lightning danced around his right arm and left leg.
Devlin frowns before commenting, "Okay, something is really screwy with that. Did he just turn water molecules into fire?"
Kikaider scans the two and says, "Correct, these entities are not normal organic entities and it appears that where the two elements meet their cells shift between the different elements."
Devlin frowns and asks, "Then we are into a big fight," with that Devlin rolled to the side as Cloud threw lightning and fire balls. Devlin and Kikaider started moving towards the forest.
Main Tunnel-that moment
From the main tunnel came two people, one a teen with white hair wearing casual clothes and a leather jacket. The other wore Chinese styled armour and a golden headband. The white haired teen speaks up, "Are you sure I will find strong opponents here?"
"Hey, you will have a whole school of monsters to fight and all you have to say is that you are human. They hate your kind here, even some of the weaker monsters will be worth the fight," that was when a large explosion occurred in the forest drawing their attention. The second man spoke again, "Looks like some monsters are fighting now," with that the white haired boy had a pair of crystal wings with white armour grew from his back and he drew a GAIA Memory with a stylised 'E' and took flight leaving the second man to sigh as he leaned on his Bow Staff.
With Rias and Akeno-a few minutes before Kikaider transformed
Rias and Akeno flew towards the edge of the school landing on a storage shed near a sports field that made the two pause and look to the field where a sports club was practicing a fusion of every sport known to humanity, which just looked like an angry mob with different sports equipment raised like clubs chasing a couple different students holding several different sports balls all of whom were running in terror before being ruthlessly beaten by their fellow students. Rias frowns at this before looking to a clearly marked building where girls went to change and a boy their age was holding a camera taking photos before a couple nerdy looking guys found him and were about to stop him until he gave them pictures and they shouted, "Sempai!" before all four started running from the mob of female monsters.
Rias sighs and says, "Issei would fit right in."
Akeno laughs until they both tense and jump out the way as a female student council member arrived. This one was Koneko's height, but Akeno's breast size as her uniform was too small in the chest department. The girls hair though was really strange as it appears to be a gel that constantly changed colour and was currently shifting between red and black, matching Akeno and Rias' hair. The girl the laughed and spoke like she was underwater, "Oh two new beauties for me to absorb!" her arms then transformed into large monster arms that reached towards the two female devils, who flew to avoid the claws. Gel, growls and shouts, "Stop flying and become ME!" the two claws extended into the air at high speed as Rias and Akeno flew out of her reach and towards the sports field before the sports teams cowardly ran away from the coming fight, only to run right back to see Akeno's clothes vanish and leave her naked for a moment before she was wearing her priestess robes.
Rias asks a simple question, "Are you one of the Yokai who decided to attack my territory?"
Gel laughs and says, "Yokai are ours to devour, they defile themselves by hiding amongst the humans."
Akeno frowns at that before saying, "Wow, I guess you Yokai are Kinky."
Rias chuckles as the female students return from chasing the peeping trio, only to be noticed by Gel who saw many girls only wrapped in a towel or in underwear and Gel licked her lips before sending her claws at the females. She caught one and she vanished into the oversized hand and Gel grew an inch while also adopting features of the girl before she spat webs at the remaining girls except one that she reached for only for Rias to destroy that arm causing Gel to frown and return her attention to Rias appearing more annoyed as she ignored the webbing being destroyed with Rias' Power of Destruction Magic.
Gel growls as her arm reforms and she loses two inches in height and shouts in her waterlogged voice, "You will pay for that," he body appeared to melt before shifting into an oversized monster amalgamation.
One of the students shouts, "It's the Monster Affiar Chair's monster form!"
Rias frown at that before she comments, "Or," with that Rias nods her head and Akeno summoned a lightning bolt that caused Gel to shiver and almost loose form before solidifying herself. Rias comments, "You are a Slime, or at least one that has become sentient."
Gel laughs and says, "Humans and Monsters, all look down on the simple slime and yet all we have to do to gain power is to eat those with power we want!" Gel laughs before Rias starts using her Power of Destruction on Gel and the more she destroys the smaller her opponent gets.
Rias speaks to all the devils her magic connected, "They are slime creatures like Issei's Green Slime only they have become sentient."
"WE NOTICED!" was shouted in her ear from Devlin, Kiba and Xenovia as a large explosion occurred in the forest creating a lot of smoke that vanished. And the sounds of battle started occurring around the school along with what could be considered an earth quake.
Rias frowns before focusing on Gel, "Akeno, go help the others," Akeno raised an eyebrow but did just as she was told, "Issei, we are in the enemies castle."
Rias hears a laugh before he says, "PROMOTION QUEEN!" when another earthquake was felt. Rias raised an eyebrow at that while Gel charged her.
Gel Shouts, "MY BEAUTY WILL NOT BE DENINED!" only for her to find herself inside a sphere of Power of Destruction Glyphs.
Rias says, "BEGONE!" with her hand pointing to her glyphs resulting in a sphere of destruction that obliterated everything in its path even the air so when the magic was complete the was a small hurricane of air return to the perfect sphere. Rias sighs before looking at the two Student Council clubmembers, who arrived to fight her. Only they were knocked back by a shockwave that almost disrupted their forms. When the dust settled and after Rias had photos taken of her rear, she saw Kamen Rider Eternal. Rias blinks before gritting her teeth and saying, "Why are you here?"
Eternal looked over his shoulder and sighs as he says, "I came to find strong opponents to fight. If you are here then the wielder of Draig is here too."
Rias growls and says, "Don't get in my way of finding my Underclassmen they took."
Eternal simply says, "I don't care, leave these two to me. I am sure they would want to kill the human that has stepped foot in their school," his words were met with silence from every student that was there before they transformed into monsters intending to rip him apart. Eternal says, "Go!" and charged forward, while Rias took flight to search the school. Eternal's battle was starting and he was going to enjoy himself.
With Devlin and Kikaider-Just before the explosion.
Devlin was avoiding flames that spewed at him from Cloud while Kikaider was grappling with the mutant werewolf. Devlin controlled his smirk as the forest burned around him creating smoke Devlin reached over to the smoke and absorbed the results before the particles could return to Cloud. Cloud grits his teeth as he silently glared at Devlin. Devlin simply says, "What's wrong, did I take your voice or something," Cloud started shouting without a voice Devlin frowns before commenting, "Ooh, you are a mime," Devlin then dodged bursts of water filled with lightning, Devlin continued dodging before standing still and smoking his chest as lightning and fire was blasted at him, that missed him completely and hit his partner MW.
Rias voice then spoke in Kikaider and Devlins' ear, "They are slime creatures like Issei's Green Slime only they have become sentient."
Devlin's responce came at the same time as Kiba and Xenovias', "WE NOTICED!" as Cloud suddenly blasted a thunder bolt towards Devlin, who leaped to the side as it created a large explosion. Devlin extended his chain covered in smoke heating the chain as it sliced through the slime dubbed Cloud. It burned through the water vapours but the flame part of the slime's body was unaffected.
Kikaider's battle was different in that WM only lost mass when Cloud blasted him on accident. Kikaider thinks quickly before impaling WM before extending his laser cannon that he had large amounts of heat that vaporised a large hole through WM. WM's form shifted so it was smaller but now it had crystal like protrusions. WM extended a crystal covered arm at Kikaider before Kikaider was blasted back by sound waves knocking him back into a tree as the earth began to shake. Kikaider clapped his hands creating a small sonic disruption WM where the crystals were cracked, before he reduced in size as crystals reformed. Kikaider dodged to the side as several sonic blasts were sent his way.
Devlin used his chain to dodge a wide range attack so that he was now back to back with Kikaider before Devlin comments, "These guys really are a pain," Kikaider was silent before he smirks and says, "Well," Devlin spins around with his chain smoked and catching MW burning his body before lassoing MW into Cloud setting MW's wooden parts on fire. In the end MW wooden section where completely burnt away before slime like protrusion extended from the stump only for it to struggle to form more mass or change material. MW grunted silently as portions of his body changed so that the arm was now fully made of crystal, leaving the rest of his body metal only from the water vapour of the storm form rust was starting to form on his metal body. Cloud's body though was also missing portions of itself as they slowly reformed at a reduced size.
Kikaider was silent as he sped forward and pinned WM's arms at his side before tackling into Cloud with WM's body resulting in the rust forming faster. Kikaider released MW, before blasting the Slime with multiple bursts knocking him away. MW struggled to stand and to keep his form, Devlin though smoked his chain and caught Cloud as the flames of his form had failed and then collided the two slime and had the two, fall apart into dust.
Kikaider and Devlin fell to their knees and Devlin says, "We rock," before he fell onto his back and Kikaider transformed back into Jirou. Devlin looked to the red sky with the local midday sun. Devlin sighs and asks, "Wonder how everyone else is doing."
With Kiba and Xenovia-Swimming Pool-Shortly before everyone left the barn
Kiba and Xenovia were sneaking around an empty section of the school, which is strange considering that the weather was perfect for swimming. The only issue was that the water was red much to their confusion. Kiba looks around with a suspicious look, and questions, "Why do I sense a single entity?" at that the two jump out the way as the pool 'water' started attacking the pair revealing that the pool was actually a red death slime with black markings shaped like a face. As two white orbs of Rias' magic catches up to the giving them a way to contact each other.
Xenovia drew her sword and swung it at the large red slime where it cut a piece off only to have to avoid that same piece as it started chasing her to a pool shed that started to melt forcing Xenovia and Kiba to play real life flour of lava. That forced them to avoid tentacles and staying still too long. Xenovia had to slash the slime with her knight enhanced devil speed. Kiba used his Sword Birth to create a sword that creates flame and tried to slash the slime only for the flames to enhance the slime increasing its speed and catching the sword. Kiba dropped the sword as it was eaten by the slime which actually appeared to slow the creature down. Kiba then created another sword, this one capable of freezing the slime for a couple moments before it freed itself.
Xenovia shouts, "Why is there a slime monster here?"
Kiba comments, "Besides it being impossible to move any flame slimes like this without being slime themselves," Kiba's eyes widened as he avoided the slime destroying a chair before shouting, "Of course, that explains all the damn different powers and the fact that they were unaffected when we cut them in half!"
Rias voice was heard in their ears, "They are slime creatures like Issei's Green Slime only they have become sentient."
Kiba and Xenovia shouts, "WE KNOW!" at the same time as Devlin before an explosion rocked the area. With that Kiba jumps to the side as the flour below him gives out. The floor became a pit with wall fragments from the store room below the pool. The slime was melting large quantities of material that seemed to survive being consumed.
Kiba frowns before creating an extending sword that he used to collected the heaviest looking object and with a quick application of speed launched the stack of spare plastic chairs at the slime where it melted the non organic material and lost mass. Xenovia frowns at that before cutting a small wooden beam and threw it at the slime where it grew slightly before Kiba comments, "Feed it everything non organic you can find, no plants or organic matter!" Xenovia nods before she slashed through the pool cutting the entire building in half causing the slime to land on a bunch of plastic chairs, tables, pool equipment and old lockers filled with abandoned green school uniforms made of synthetic fibres to be more water proof for the aquatic yokai, not that there had been any remaining this year. The Flame Slime was mostly gone as the surrounding area had been eaten, before suddenly Kiba creates several dozen swords with his sacred gear and threw them into the Flame Slime weakening it until it finally dissolved into a vapour. Kiba looks to the destroyed pool and noticed the destroyed glyph that was a resistance spell that explains why there was still a building, with a Flame Slime in a swimming pool. Kiba's eyes widened as he comments, "I don't think all those uniforms were abandoned," the ground shook twice as Kiba comments, "I think Issei started fighting," a third quake was felt and Xenovia blushes lightly.
With Akeno-As she flew back to the Barn
Akeno flew quickly to the barn past the Devlin and Kikaider as the explosion occurs below her when they continued their battle, Akeno reached the Barn quickly where she finds Asia hugging an awoken Yukari as Ravel could be seen fighting three low level slimes, her fire balls speeding around the slimes and heavily damaging the creatures before Akeno created a trio of thunderbolts that destroyed the slimes. Akeno looks around and notices Phillip carving into the Barn wall with a stone, researching slimes.
"Ara Ara, this is rather strange. These little slimes are all acting above their station," Akeno comments with her sultry grin.
Philip spoke up from the wall, "Apparently it is a recently evolved skill that the strongest Slimes that were created in the last two years, PREDATOR, it allows them to consume creatures and objects to replicate their abilities or affects. When consuming a creature, they also can copy their form. Hence the strange forms, they must of came to Yokai Academy and ate some students to gain their forms and powers. Hence a werewolf with metal skin and the storm cloud abilities Devlin and Jirou. It appears that they absorbed multiple Yokai in an attempt to keep these powers or strengthen their existing abilities."
Asia from her position of comforting Yukari was confused until Yukari speaks, "then why did they not eat me instead of using me to cast magic."
Philip was silent for a moment before commenting, "Your magic? Is it a skill you have to learn or are you born with a set amount of power?"
Yukari wiped the tears from her eyes and says, "We have the ability to use magic but need a medium to achieve that until we have developed our magic past the point of needing the Medium," Yukari stiffened when behind Akeno a new slime grew behind her. Yukari then suddenly had her wand in her hand and a large golden washing tub crashed onto the slime and containing it from Akeno.
Akeno looked at the washing tub that melted revealing a tiny slime having burnt itself out. Akeno quickly zapped the slime creature and turned to Yukari and smiles as she says, "Thank you Yukari," Yukari nods enjoying the praise.
Philip then says as he reads his blank book, "Apparently witches and wizards require eighty years of constant study to even cast a single without a medium but even then it requires years of practice to cast multiple spells."
Yukari nods as she already knew this while Akeno was commenting, "Well that is just wasteful, our magic is much more focused," Akeno then created a bottle of water with a red glyph over her hand causing Yukari to have wide eyes in amazement.
With Issei-As Devlin vanished into the vents
Devlin and Cloud vanished into the vents destroying the ducks and tubes leading back down the tunnel destroying the vents as Issei shouts, "Henshin," and begins transforming as Fang tackles him through the gate and down the tunnel to the room before the prison cells/dungeon. Joker had his arms up blocking the high speed punches before Fang leaped back as Joker tried to kick him away. Joker pulled out the NAZCA and HEAT memories and transformed into Joker Heat Nazca form, with fire coating his fist he charged forward to hit Fang and instead smashed the wall as Fang dodged to the side out pacing Joker's high speed movement.
Rias' voice was heard in his ear, "They are slime creatures like Issei's Green Slime only they have become sentient," Joker said nothing as the others shouted their acknowledgement while Joker created a small Earthquake when he tried to punch a dodging Fang, while ending up in the dungeon in time to see Moka getting splashed with a cup of water by two guards. Joker knocked them back and broke Moka's door to her cell.
Joker turned around quickly as he was tackled by Fang into Setsuna's cell with Fang appearing to glow red and out pacing Joker as Joker was thrown into Koneko's cell where he landed behind her. Joker noticed the chains and quickly grabbed the chain melting the chains enough for Koneko to free herself with her own Rook enhanced demon strength. Joker then pulled out the CYCLONE memory and exchanged the HEAT memory before speeding towards Fang and actually hitting Fang only for nothing to happened as Fang chuckled before keeping up and flung him towards the last occupied cell and crashed through the sealed trunk and destroying the box.
Fang slowly walked into the cell before suddenly freezing as a small blue slime crawled on top of Joker and forming into a gelatinous sphere and says, "Finally," Fang was visually fearing the small blob before suddenly running to Moka and lifting her over his shoulder and ran out the hole that Joker had crashed through. The small Slime appears to turn to Joker as he sat up and the small slime gains two star shapes as it they were eyes, "WOW A KAMEN RIDER!" clearly excited.
Joker frowns at that before commenting, "Um," not sure what to think.
The slime then turned around and looked to Setsuna and Koneko. The slime started making noises before shouting, "SCHOOL GIRLS!" as Koneko broke the chain around Setsuna allowing her to stretch her wings and the Slime to shout, "Angel Schoolgirl!" which was said like a perverted teenage boy.
Koneko frowns before saying, "Perverted Slime," the slime took notice.
The Slime faced Koneko and got a proper look at her and says, "Pretty girl with white hair," Koneko raised an eyebrow at that before the slime asks, "May I suck on your nipples?" resulting in the slime being kicked and Joker getting to see a flash of Koneko's panties as the slime bounced around at high speeds.
Koneko comments, "He is just as bad as the pervert," the slime continued bouncing before he landed calmly on top of Setsuna's head.
The slime sighs calmly and says, "I am happy to be considered a pervert, now can anyone tell me where I am and where are the idiots who sealed me in that box?"
Joker rolls his shoulder and says, "They took Moka," the slime then focused on Joker who then looks to the slime and says, "Get off my friend!"
The slime asks, "Sorry, but when I see a pretty lady I just want to be in her arms and feel their lovely bodies," Setsuna frowns and reaches for the slime on her head and had it between her hands and proceeded to stretch the slime violently and says, "Oh, that is rather nice. Being punished by a girl," he sighs in bliss.
Joker frowns before asking the slime, "Why were you sealed in a box?"
The slime was now being pulled apart by Koneko as he answered, "I made a friend and met some monsters, non-sentient and ate them quickly after killing them. That friend was a dragon lady, whose brother was dying and after befriending the two, the Brother made a request that I followed. The problem came was that a few days later the rest of the family was attacked but I don't know what happened to the girl."
Joker frowns before asking, "Why would they attack that family?"
The answer came from the slime only it was not a verbal answer as the Slime expanded out of Koneko's hands and took the form of a blue haired young looking 'girl' wearing some basic dark blue clothes and a sword attached to their hip before he speaks, "I am Rimmaru Tempest the slime, now can someone tell me where I am?"
