I want to apologize in advance for what's going to seem like a rushed chapter, because it kinda was...
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"T-this...this is impossible...you're a Devil! You shouldn't be able to touch this blade no matter how strong you are!"
"Well you're seeing it right here, anyway, it's my turn now"
"w-wha-*WHACK*
The girl was sent flying backwards by a punch to her stomach, causing her to lose her grip on the blade.
The sword was now laying at his feet, an evil idea playing out in his head.
'Should I scare them?'
(you mean more than you already have?)
'Yeah, I wonder how they would react if I were to, i don't know, pick it up?'
(it's going to feel like your hand is on fire if you hold that thing)
'I'm getting accustomed to the pain, it won't do any damage to me, I think I'll do it' Kiro reached down and grabbed the large sword by the handle, it immediately felt like he was laying his hand on a hot stove top.
He fought the pain and hid it behind an evil grin, the look on the girl's face was priceless.
Kiro began to examine the blade. "Such a lovely blade, it's a shame you have such a weak wielder" he spoke softly, as if it was sentient.
"Kiro, you've done enough showing off, give her the sword back' Rias spoke like a disciplining mother.
"You're lucky I have to obey her" Kiro tossed the blade at her feet, then turned to see Kiba and the other girl had been watching instead of fighting.
"Are you two going to fight, or do I have to come over there?"
The other girl yelped and ran over to her partner, they both left the field before anything else could happen.
Kiro felt a tug on his sleeve, courtesy of Koneko.
"he-*slap*
"Baka"
"I'd slap you as well, but I don't want to break my own hand" Rias spoke with a not happy tone.
"I...don't understand"
"That's why we call you an idiot"
Kiro sighed, then waited until the girls were gone to confront Kiba, who was staring at the spot of ground that had been cracked under the force of the blade.
"Hey"
No response.
"Kiba?"
Nothing.
Kiro snapped his fingers in front of his face, finally getting his attention. "Are you ok?"
"I...It's nothing that concerns you"
"You clearly have some sort of problem with those girls"
"No, not them...their weapons"
"What about them?"
"Its a problem I have to face alone"
"Listen, you could probably take on that Irina girl, maybe with only a few cuts, but the other one is out of your league. You will die if you try to fight her, alone, that is"
It took Kiba a second to understand what he meant. "You want to help me?"
"I'm not going to help you kill those girls, but we could help them complete their mission, and get them out of here as soon as possible"
"I vowed to destroy those blades...for what they did to my comrades"
"Not an option, we don't need all of Heaven to come down here and kill us for destroying some swords. But if we find the stolen swords before they do, i'm sure we could word out some sort of deal with them"
"You dont understand...destroying them is the only way I can avenge them"
"Ok, how are you going to do that?"
"...what?"
"How exactly do you plan to destroy a Holy Sword when just touching the damn thing can kill you?"
Kiba briefly eyed the hand Kiro used to hold the sword and then turned his head, not knowing what to say.
"You can't, you're not strong enough, Rias isn't strong enough to break one and her signature power is literally Destruction" Kiro put a hand on his shoulder. "Look, I don't know the full story, and i'm definitely not going to say I understand how you feel, but doing this alone is going to get you killed"
"...you're right, but I-"
"Don't worry, I'm coming with you, you can't get killed if they can't hit you"
"You want me to hide behind you?"
"That's pretty much the only thing I'm good for-huh?" Kiro felt a tug on his sleeve.
"I'm coming with you" Koneko spoke.
"No, I can't protect both of you at once, you're staying here"
"...I'm going with you"
"Koneko, you need to stay here. I don't want you to get killed"
"I-"
"If you stay here, i'll bring you your favorite pastry"
Koneko was silent.
"How about two?"
Koneko sighed and walked back to the clubroom.
"Ok, let's get going"
"Uh...where exactly?"
(I can sense one, not one that either of those girls were using)
'Great, where is it?'
(i'll just guide you there)
'Sounds good'
XXPOV-?XX
"W-what is this feeling?"
[a high ranking Fallen Angel, its attacking that school]
"What!?"
[I assume it's here to kill the Gremory]
"You mean Rias?"
[yes]
"I-I have to help them!"
[you are nowhere near strong enough to face that Fallen Angel]
"Maybe so, but I can try. You said I can give power to others?"
[yes, you can transfer power to others]
"Then I can help them that way"
[if you do survive, those Devils are going to attempt to add you to their ranks]
"If I get to hang out with hot girls then it's worth it"
The Dragon sighed.
Issei took off in a sprint toward the school, it didn't take long.
He arrived just as some weird guy floating in the air was talking.
"-and that one will be the first to die!"
Issei followed his pointing to a girl with blond hair on her knees, she seemed to be In some state of shock.
He watched as the guy created a glowing spear of some sort and threw it, no one was close enough to save her.
Well, there was one.
"No!"
Issei pushed his legs as hard as he could and dove in front of the girl.
XXKIROXX
"-and that one will be the first to die!"
Kokabiel created a spear and tossed it straight at Asia, who was still stuck in her shock.
Kiba was unconscious, no one else was close enough, he wasn't fast enough to block it.
Though it seemed he didn't have to, because someone else did.
"No!"
A boy with brown hair dove in front of Asia, taking the spear and tumbling down.
'Who the hell is that!?'
(That boy possesses the Red Dragon)
'I gotta stop this bastard'
Kiro turned back to the Cadre. "Hey! Why don't you come down here and fight fairly?"
"Mhm, I don't know what kind of power you possess, but it won't save you forever!"
Kiro stood still as the Cadre rushed him with a sword.
*SHATTER*
The sword broke over his head, Kiro used the time the Cadre was stunned to land a charged hit directly to his face.
"You know, that was pretty weak for a leader class Fallen Angel"
"That was nothing, boy. You have yet to see my full power"
"Well, what are you waiting for? Are you afraid?"
"I have nothing to fear from the likes of you! I'll-"
The Cadre was interrupted by the barrier shattering, a figure descended down.
(The White Dragon…)
The figure didn't say anything, or if they did, Kiro didn't hear it.
He ran over to where the brown haired boy was lying, Asia had recovered from her shock and was healing him.
Kiro stepped over to Rias and Akeno, both girls were only exhausted.
He had taken hits for both of them as they retaliated, it didn't go as well as they hoped.
Kiro then turned to Koneko, who was lying unconscious behind them.
She would be fine.
"Rias, that boy over there has something special about him"
"How do-"
Kiro was on his way to get Kiba before she could ask.
He got over and managed to wake him up.
"Where…"
"Still on the field, Kokabiel is gone"
"We won…"
"Yeah, you could say that"
Kiro helped him up, then brought him over to the group.
The two exorcists were gone, he didn't get to see where they went.
"Kiro" Akeno called out to him.
"Yes?"
"I can't get up, will you carry me?"
"Nice try Akeno, you are fine" Kiro walked past a pouting Akeno and picked up Koneko.
"S...Sen..pai?" She was very weak, he brought her closer to Asia.
"It's...Draconic?" Rias asked quietly as she looked over the boy.
"Not just Draconic, he's the Red Dragon"
"...eh?"
XXXXX
"He saved me…" Asia had been watching over the boy, Issei, is his name.
(It seems she's fallen for him at first sight)
'So it would seem, I don't blame her, someone so sheltered'
(You don't want to keep her?)
'No, I have Koneko, and apparently Akeno, but mostly Koneko'
Rias had used all eight Pawns on him.
"Keep watching him, go get Rias when he wakes up"
"Hai…"
Kiro walked around until he found Kiba, who was lost.
"You ok?"
"Oh, yes. I finally avenged my comrades"
"Yeah, even got a cool new sword out of it"
"Yeah…"
Kiro felt a tug on his sleeve, he already knew it was Koneko, so he placed an arm around her.
"S-Senpai?"
"Yes?"
"Can you...you-"
"Hm?"
"Ugh" she grabbed his arm and began to drag him away into a room.
"Koneko? Are you- Ahh!?"
Koneko suddenly tackled him to the floor, her face was pink, her eyes were filled with hunger and lust.
'Oh boy…'
(Ooh, this will be fun to watch~)
"Kone-Mhh" he was silenced by a kiss.
'I don't know how, but I'm going to find a way to blame this on you, pervert'
(Mou~)
