(January 18, 2012 – Issei's Dreams)

Issei opens his eyes to find the mighty orange and dark red outline flames surrounding him as the flames were not burning him to black ashes, which he walks forward to take more of the sights of what called him here for?

"You can't sleep?" His thoughts speak inside Issei's mind, and his head turns to sees the massive dark red dragon. His dark green eyes could tell Issei has strong connections with his powers of a been normal person, yet his aura of the dragon was slowly slipping out of Issei without his knowledge.

It was time for Issei to learn how to become a dragon and control the deep inside of him because the dragon knew he would fight many enemies that are more difficult to put down than Fallen Angel, Dohnaseek.

"Issei, I believe it's time for you to start thinking about training." The dragon spoke back to Issei with a gentle but strong tone towards him. Issei would ask Rias to help become tone with his new Devil powers built inside his spirit and body. However, the training to become strong as a dragon should be. Issei nods at the request of training from the dragon and becomes ready to learn how to become strong enough to protect his friends again.

Dragon felt Issei's compassion to gain strength and power to do the right thing to block everyone he cares about and loves. Issei was willing to train himself to become stronger, then Ddraig speaks again, "You might want to wake yourself up because it seems one of your… future girls are kind of um… How should I say this? Her things are top of you right now?"

(Hyoudou's Residences - Issei's Bedroom)

Issei closes his eyes and then opens them to see Raynare's light pink nipples were right there, close for him to taste inside his mouth. "What the hell is Raynare doing in my bed again?" Issei's thoughts show confusion, for it seems that Raynare was growing closer to him with no reasons behind why she was sleeping in the same bed with him for. His attention turns to sees Mittelt was sleeping at his other side, and her growing breasts were touching his chest with his face was dark red because it seems that both Raynare and Mittelt were trying their best to get closer with Issei.

The outfits of Raynare were dark purple short sleeve shirts as they barely held back her breasts, and her shorts were revealing purple panties inside of them. Mittelt's outfit of choice was a black short sleeve shirt down to her belly, and her shorts were short down to her lower thighs. His hands were wrapped around their bodies as Issei pull his hands for freedom, then he lays the girls down onto the bed comfortably.

Issei shows a light smile for the girls and takes a dark crimson shirt and dark blue pants as they were built for the training process. Then Issei makes some breakfast for the girls before he left the house. He packs something for him to eat it and Issei closes the front door of his residences. Then he stops in the middle of the sidewalk as the question, "So what is first, Ddraig?" Issei asks the dragon inside his body with a firm tone, and Ddraig looks over Issei's body, which he needs to work on his stamina first.

"I want you to do a lap around the park where you first met Raynare." Ddraig gives the command to Issei with a serious and coaching tone as Issei nods at the dragon's request. He ran towards the park as the wind pushed slightly onto Issei, yet he continued his way towards the park. Issei stops in the middle of the park of breathing in, then out of trying to catch his breath for Ddraig shows a light smile because it seems that Issei has little improvements inside of his stamina were good. Yet, he needs to learn how to take a breath slightly and not try to focus on his mind yet try to focus on his body which it will do. It is a job if Issei connects to it.

Ddraig allows Issei to eat some of his breakfast which was scrambled eggs. His deep voice says, "That was impressive, but I can tell you need to work on your speed and strength a bit more." His tone was serious for Issei's training of speed and strength as his head nods at the agreement to work on his body and spirit. Issei nods his words of encouragement for his training, yet he gathers the strength to stand up onto his feet.

Issei places the plate of food down onto the wooden bench as he was ready for the next training regimen which Ddraig admits that he likes Issei's determination, then he speaks, "Issei, your next training is twenty push-ups and pull-ups." Issei nods as he goes to the empty park area then starts doing the first push up, and he stops at fifteen pushes up, which he starts doing the next five push-ups as Ddraig's eyes extends of a surprise because it seems that Issei could push himself further than any host that he used to have in the past.

(At Hyoudou's Residences)

Raynare wakes up to found Mittelt was sleeping in the same bed with her, and she looks over to found Issei was not there with the mind was worried about where Issei took off. Her breasts and nipples bounce slightly. However, her hands push her shirt down and begin to shake Mittelt to wake her up.

"Mittelt, wake up," Raynare speaks with a tender and worried tone.

Mittelt begins to feel her best friend was shaking her awake to found Raynare was trying to wake her up as her sight looks up to find the time was 8:12 A.M then her mind brought the idea of how today Sunday was then she was going to snuggle closer to Issei, yet he was not there to greet her.

"Raynare… Wait, where is Issei?" Mittelt asks her best friend, Raynare shows a worried expression because she did not know where he was. Mittelt gets off from the bed, and Raynare follows her best friend with their expressions were worried about Issei or what if someone kidnapped him to do something horrible to him. Yet, the smell of something was delicious in the dining room as they went to see the wooden dining table was filled with four plates as they were confused about what was going on.

Raynare and Mittelt come from Issei's bedroom with Asia was looking for Issei as the same question was "Hey, have you guys seen Issei?" Her tone was concern about her guardian angel, then Mittelt sees a white paper note on the table admit for them.

Mittelt opens the letter to reveals that Issei went out to start his morning training, but he shall be back around before lunchtime. Raynare and Asia went back to check the letter to find the girls. He went off to train alone with Ddraig. Then Raynare releases relaxed breath because she was worried about Issei. The feeling of worried disappears then she begins to wonder why she was worried about Issei; Raynare could not believe she had a great feeling inside of her heart and spirit, meaning it was love?

"Raynare." Mittelt says her name.

Raynare sees Mittelt, and Asia found her expression was calm since she found out that Issei was not in danger. Then Mittelt continues, "Do you have feelings for Issei?" She was surprised to hear the question from Mittelt, and Asia nods at Raynare of wondering if she could answer the question.

She went to sit down at a wooden dining table with Mittelt, and Asia sits down as they wanted to hear the story behind Raynare's feelings for Issei.

"Where to begin," Raynare responds to the question with a gentle voice, and she eats the breakfast as it was made with warmness, then she swallows the first bite. "I don't know why but my heart keeps thrusting feel like it's going to come out of my chest for some reason, and I want to see Issei's smile every time I see him, which makes me feel like I could complete anything in my life or try to do my best to see him like that again." Mittelt and Asia understand what Raynare was telling them with gentle expressions, which the girls could tell that Raynare in love with Issei.

Time was the answer of when Raynare will express her feelings towards Issei, so Mittelt and Asia would put Issei and Raynare together. Then the question was where Issei is.

(At the Park)

Issei was putting himself into difficult training by doing push-ups by using only his right hand with his left hand behind his back. He was breathing in then out of trying to get stronger than before inside of his arm; then he would switch to the next one with Ddraig speaks, "Only two more to go then you can take a break, Issei." He was breathing in then out to do two more push-ups and rolls over, so he was breathing in then out of trying to catch his breath as Ddraig nods at the accomplishment that Issei has done for today.

"Issei?" Hearing his name for it makes him lift himself and sees Rias was wearing a dark crimson tracking suit with her long crimson hair tied up inside of her single ponytail as; she was surprised to see Issei in the park with nobody around. Her cheeks turn bright red, for it seems that Issei was alone and training himself to become stronger than Rias turns her head to the right, then left directions then she went over for her breasts to bounce up the down.

"Rias, what are you doing here?" Asked Issei, his tone was friendly towards her, and Rias went to sit down next to him, which he was confused about what she was doing here then Rias was doing little training for the next battle, so she did not need to depend on Issei.

"I was doing little training myself, but may I ask what you are doing here?" Rias responds to Issei with the same question of her tone was gentle and confused about why Issei was doing out of here for unknown reasons.

"I'm out here to train myself because I want to be strong enough to protect everyone on the team." Issei gave his answer with a firm tone, yet Rias could tell he strongly impacted wanted to protect everyone on the team and get strong enough to control his powers sleeping inside of his body and spirit.

Rias begins to wonder if she should tell him of the history of the other realms. Then she nods at the agreement, and she begins, "Issei, would you like to know about the other realms except for this one." Issei shows great interest as he nods his head quickly for her. Then Rias draws a circle then divides it into seven pieces. "Well, you see, this realm I come from is Devil's Realm called the Underworld, and next to it is Angel's Realm or Heaven. There's Fallen Angel Realm, or they love to call it Dark Sky; the next ones are Elves Realm is also called Misato Forest, Black Realm, where the Vampires are, and finally, the Lunar Realm. Is where you'll find werewolves." Issei could not believe the many realms out there except for this one as his curiosity was getting filled with new possibilities to meet the people from different places that would fill his desire for adventures. He turns his head to sees Rias show a bit of concern or worry about something as his right hand reaches out and took her shoulder with warmth, which Rias looks up to sees Issei shows a tender smile for her to see it.

"Whatever is bothering you, do not let it rule your mind or thoughts," Issei tells her with smooth advice to follow as Rias' cheeks become light red, for Issei was one of those types of people that others want to become close with. She wanted to hear those words from someone as parts of her wanted to reward him for telling her something that she wanted to hear from the person who would become something special, yet Rias could feel a heart beating a little fast as she ignores the feeling of not knowing what it was.

Issei's eyes extend of Rias hugs him as her breasts push against his chest as his eyes extend of shock because the only person, he hugged so far was Raynare then his right-hand wraps around Rias to hug her back.

"Well, I believe I should get back to my house before the girls become worried about where I am at, and you are welcome to come with me, Rias," Issei tells her with a confident tone, which he gets up onto his feet with his right hand was offered for Rias to help her back up to her feet.

"I believe I shall take you up for that offer, Issei," Rias responds to Issei with a warm tone, and her left-hand takes hold of his right hand then helps her up to her feet.

Feelings of holding on Issei's hand with her hand felt incredible for Rias, yet the release from the hold of it as Issei shows a gentle smile then leads them back to his home. Rias had many questions about what Issei loved to do at his home before getting involved in Devil or the other realm that she calls home. Issei turns his head back to sees Rias had many questions for Issei with her first question, "Hey Issei, what were you like before all of this." Her tone was curious about the past of Issei Hyoudou; then, his lips release soft laughs because his childhood was interesting and nice for anybody.

"Well, you can say my childhood was filled with many adventures and happiness, which I did not care if my parents were around or not because they were always with me in my heart," Issei told Rias with a confident tone. She could tell that Issei loves to read his books filled with adventures, action, or understanding ones where the character needs to develop strong connections to unlock his true potential.

Rias listens to Issei's story of his childhood, and his head turns to sees the expression of Rias' questionable has to disappear from existence. She begins to feel that Issei has no darkness or loneliness inside his mind, heart, or spirit, which she could tell that Issei will be a special dragon in this era.

Issei opens the front door to allow Rias to enter the house, and they found Raynare, Asia, and Mittelt were trying their best to clean the house with new clothes. Raynare wears a midnight blue shirt and black shorts down to her lower thighs, which her cleavage shows itself been fifty percent for Issei to see it. Mittelt's outfit is a black short sleeve shirt down to her waist, yet it shows fifty percent of her cleavage and dark blue skirt down to her lower thighs. Asia's outfit is a light blue shirt down to her belly, yet her cleavage was fifty-five percent of her cleavage shows for Issei to see it and white shorts down to her hips.

"I'm home, girls," Issei told Raynare, Asia, and Mittelt with a comfortable tone with his cheeks turns bright red.

"Issei, where did you go?" Asked Raynare, her tone was worried to Issei.

Raynare went over to Issei, and she begins to check on him because she was worried about him with her breasts swings slightly inside her shirt. She could almost feel her breasts and nipples touching his chest, which Rias shows a firm smile to show she was getting jealous of how close Issei and Raynare. Her hand places them onto her chest, and she was going to lean in, which she was going to kiss Issei for the first time been her first kiss as well.

"Hold on, you two," Rias told them as she pulls away from one another, and she begins to remember what she needs to tell Issei the news. "Besides, I have something to tell Issei and Asia, but I'll just tell everyone here," Rias spoke again with a gentle voice as she returns, yet her thoughts brought back the idea of how Raynare and Issei were going to kiss one another for the first time.

The day of the full moon was close to hand as Rias needs Issei and Asia to be ready for the next trip inside of the Familiar Forest because it seems that others will take the chance to get their own familiar with confident expression appears on Rias. Issei found Rias' confident expression was focused on him because Issei has a strong bond towards the others, yet it seems that his bond building between him and Rias.

However, there was only one problem of entering the Familiar Forest as a light blue magical circle appears onto Rias' right side of her ear as her best friend speaks, "Rias, we need to speak once again because it seems that our interests have made us cross again." Her tone was firm, and it seems that Rias could not believe that her best friend had news to tell her.

Issei went to make something to eat for lunch as he hears the deep voice of the dragon again, "Issei, you have lots of room to improve, but today you were interesting to see your energy has slowly gone down to normal levels. However, you need to learn how to control this massive power inside of you whenever you have some free time." His tone was serious towards his partner, and nods at the agreement about the dragon's advice and begins to think about doing another section of training with Ddraig again after lunch.

Today's lunch was fried fish, green beans and corn, sweet tea for everyone as he places the plate and cups for the girls, then he found the dishes were clean. Issei turns the fish over and begins to think about how Raynare was going to try and kiss him for the first time; however, the moment was a ruin by Rias to told them to get away from each other.

"Issei, I believe you should train yourself again, and maybe we can do some spiritual training inside of the training," Ddraig told Issei with a strong tone about spiritual training was a difficult part of training to control the dragon's powers. Yet, Ddraig felt he believe in Issei's strong spirit. His energy was gentle, calming down inside Issei's body and spirit as Issei went back to making the lunch for everyone. The next part was time for Issei to learn how to control his powers and use them properly.

Issei lays the food down onto the wooden table for the girls and himself to eat it as he calls for the girls with a gentle voice, "Girls, lunch is ready." Raynare, Rias, Asia, and Mittelt came into the kitchen to eat lunch with Issei; then, he sees Rias was done talking with her best friend.

"Is something wrong, Rias?" Issei asks her with a concerned tone, and Rias thinks about telling Issei and Asia that they would be Practice Rating Game with Sona and her team. Then she gets up from her wooden chair of the table with her expression was firm.

"Yes, we will have to go to battle soon, and we will have to win this battle to go, Familiar Forest," Rias told everyone with a serious voice, and Issei becomes interested in what the Familiar Forest holds inside itself.

Are Issei ready for Practice Rating Game?
