"Here is your breakfast, Master"
"Thank you, please wake Celia and tell her to get ready for school"
"Hai"
The brown haired boy went back to his little construct, making sure it was ready.
He absentmindedly snacked on his breakfast in the process, like every other day.
"Aaaaand….done" *Click*
The construct came to life, it was a small humanoid robot. One that, if worked correctly, would solve all of his problems.
"Master?"
"Welcome back, are you fully functional?"
"Yes, all of my systems are green!"
"Good, you know what to do from here"
"Hai!"
The small humanoid construct jumped from the table, it began to hover.
"Woa-ahh-ohh!"
The boy chuckled at his creation, it seemed he had to get used to flying again.
He quickly righted himself and continued to his assigned destination.
"*yaaaawn*"
A young silver haired girl stepped into the room, rubbing her eyes.
Her long shirt stopped just above her ankles, she was the cutest little thing anyone had ever seen.
In his professional opinion, that is.
She stopped rubbing her eyes, looking up at him, her golden orbs shined with innocence and curiosity.
"Goodmorning, onii-chan"
"Hello, Celia. Did you have a nice rest?"
"Yeah! I saw Luther again!"
The boy dropped all his emotions, quickly pulling out a notepad and pen.
"A-and *ahem* did you say anything to you?"
"Oh….no, he sat on his hill, just looking away…"
The girl seemed to droop.
The boy scribbled and cleared his throat again.
"Thats ok, i'm sure he's just shy"
"Yeah! That mean grumpy lizard!"
"Are you ready for your first day?"
"Oh! I forgot!"
The girl rushed out of the room, leaving the boy to chuckle.
That girl was a very interesting case, dreaming of a large grey dragon, telling her of the existence of 'Devils', 'Fallen Angels', and 'Angels'.
Apparently there are two groups of Devils at the school, he would have dismissed these things as silly dreams.
But this young girl was developing strange powers, and a pair of Dragon like wings.
That alone was enough to get him to explore the possibility of the Supernatural.
The idea that magic exists caught his attention, if he could harness it, and channel it into his creations…
Who knows what he could make!
*Zap*
"Agh!"
The boy was zapped by a small static shock, he turned.
"You were drooling, master"
Oh, he was…
"There were other ways, Palavi"
"I know~ *giggle*"
Her blue eyes sparkled with mischief, she walked away to complete her usual duties.
The boy pulled out a small device.
*click*
"Note; The Palavi MK. 4 could potentially be developing sadistic tendencies"
*Click*
Palavi, one of his greatest achievements, an android with a powerful AI he developed by hand. Her body was one made of only the finest materials.
It was very expensive, but it was very worth it.
She was designed to serve, but watch yourself, she can and will kick your ass if she wants to.
She is virtually indestructible, though her synthetic skin is not.
At first glance, anyone could mistake her for a normal, 'gifted' girl.
Though her body specifications were chosen at a time of his life when he was….shall we say, 'pent up'.
He was not proud of it, but she refused to allow him to change it.
She is fully equipped to handle any desires he may have in the future, her words, not his.
Anyway!
Celia had returned, dressed in the female uniform for Kuoh Academy.
"Im ready!"
"Good, lets go"
XXXXXX
The gossip began.
It was a cute new girl arriving with the school's biggest loner, how could it not spark rumors?
He made sure to tell Celia to not talk to any boys, because they might try to eat her.
It was a crude lie, but it was necessary.
"Tomo-San"
Ugh, great…
Adam turned around, locking red eyes with violet.
The one girl he was happy to see.
He put on a small smirk, the girl mirrored his action, they stared at each other.
"Have you come for another rematch, Shitori-san?"
"Maybe later, right now, i've come to ask if you know anything about the new girl that enrolled here"
"Perhaps I do, maybe-"
"Hello, I hope i'm not bothering you"
The Gremory.
"I'll see you later, Sona. I will look forward to our game"
XXXXXXXXX
The roof of Kuoh academy seemed to be the only place that was safe from unwanted attention.
"Master"
"Ah, there you are, did you get what I asked for, Sid?"
"Hai!"
The small construct dropped a Pawn piece into his palm, one that you would see on a chess board.
But it was a glowing red, crimson even.
"I will study this later, good job"
He placed the piece in a small box, one that would normally hold a ring.
It was much more.
He hid the box just as a familiar girl rounded the corner.
"Hello, Sona. is it time?"
"Yes"
The girl found a seat on the ground in front of him, she unpacked a chess board.
He watched her set it up with a smirk.
"Is it possible that you like to lose against me?"
"Last I checked, we were tied"
The game began.
"So, Tomo-san, do you remember where we left off with our conversation?"
"About my sister, yes?"
The girl froze for the slightest of seconds.
"She is your sister?"
"Is it that hard to believe?"
"Well…-"
"Is it because she looks nothing like me? Or maybe because of her personality?"
"Perhaps"
"Well, I can assure, she is my sister. I trust that you will leave her be"
"Why would you say that?"
"I know you, Sitri. I know you all too well"
"I had a feeling you knew who I was, you're too smart to be clueless"
"I want you to keep your servants away from her, she doesnt know of the Supernatural, I want to keep it that way"
"I can feel a power within her"
"I knew you would, make sure the Gremory stays far away from her"
"Rias is-"
"Right here"
They both looked to see Rias Gremory with a frown on her face.
"Rias?"
"Your friend here has something that belongs to me"
"He does?"
"I'm sorry Gremory, but you don't have anything I would want"
She began to whisper into Sona's ear, Adam quickly slipped the box behind him.
Sid took it and snuck away.
"Can you prove that I stole something?"
"You stole one of my Pawn pieces, that means you know what we are"
"Maybe I do, that doesn't mean that I stole anything from you"
"Adam, Rias wouldn't accuse you of stealing if it wasn't true"
"Who knows, this could be a plot to turn me into your slave"
A glowing red and black energy began to grow around the Gremory, this was magic.
Adam idly 'fixed' his glasses, they began to record any and all information it could gather.
"Rias! You need to calm down!"
Once his glasses got all they could, he peered over the edge of the roof.
There was no one in sight, perfect.
"This has been fun-" the two girls watched in shock as he stepped onto the ledge. "-We will have to finish our game next time. Farewell"
He fell backwards, righting himself and suddenly stopping before he hit the ground, his boots working exactly as intended.
Test complete.
He began to walk away from the school, meeting Celia right by the gate. Exactly where he told her to go.
"Did you have a good first day?"
"Yeah! I like this place"
"That's good, lets get home now, you can tell Palavi all about your day"
"Onii!"
"Yes?"
He wasn't paying attention, he was looking for any sign of the Sitri and Gremory.
"Can we go to the bakery!?"
He made the mistake of looking down into her eyes, her golden orbs sparkling and prying away at his willpower.
"I...i-"
"Pleeeease!"
"Yes"
"Yayy!"
'Damn it! Every time!'
He could never say no to her, nobody could. Not even Palavi, and she was an android.
Given, a highly intelligent and self aware, android.
"Lets go!"
She grabbed his coat sleeve and began to drag him away with strength that could make a professional bodybuilder cry with envy.
He grabbed a small device from his pocket, it took one glance to tell him that he was being followed by a Devil.
It was a special detector, set to detect the signature of Devil energy.
XXXXX
Now, time to act.
"Celia, stay here and finish eating, don't leave, ok?"
"Hai!"
"Good"
Adam walked out of the store, and into an ally. His detector told him that Devil was here.
Sid told him it was a small girl with white hair, Koneko Toujou.
He knew about her, he knew she had a monstrous sweet tooth.
So he would lay his trap, he took a wrapped bag holding a cinnamon bun and placed it on the ground.
Devils have a very enhanced sense of smell, and all others, but from what Sid told him, this girl's sense of smell was even greater.
She could smell it, she knew exactly what it was.
"I know you're here, I won't hurt you, that pastry is yours if you come out and take it. I only want to talk"
He knew exactly where she was, but she didn't need to know that.
"I promise I only want to talk, I know you can smell it, its not poisoned"
Trap #2
"If you agree to talk with me, i'll get you anything you want from here. Along with that pastry"
The girl stood up from her hiding spot, still very weary.
"I have no weapons-" lie "-i'm only human, I cant hurt you"
The girl inched closer, not taking her eyes off of him. She grabbed the bag and opened it.
He could see the sparkle in her eyes.
Now that she was in the open, his glasses were scanning her. Downloading everything it could find to his terminal.
"I know a thing or two about cute girls with a big sweet tooth"
The girl placed the pastry in her little pack, probably saving it for later.
"Do you trust me now?"
The look in her eyes said no, but she voiced a small 'yes' getting close but not too close.
"Good, I only have a few questions, then you can have anything you want"
XXRiasXX
Koneko couldn't find anything on him, she lost him after the bakery.
The red-head was very unhappy, she needed that Pawn piece.
Her teal eyes trailed over the room, then froze when she eyed Koneko, not the girl herself, but what she was holding.
"Koneko, where did you get that pastry?"
The girl froze, she was just about to take a bite.
"...bakery"
That was obvious, but how did she get it?
"Did you steal it?"
"No…"
"Then how did you get it"
"...Tomo-Senpai"
Senpai!?
Rias was almost upset with herself, he won her over with sweets.
She didn't lose him, she just didn't follow him!
She can't be angry at Koneko, but she would need someone else to follow him.
XXAdamXX
Adam was looking over the processed data from Koneko, it seemed she shared a lot of traits with a feline.
She had some sort of energy that wasn't devil energy.
That's where the info stopped, he was an engineer, not a biologist.
He was close to being able to replicate energy similar to Devil energy, he needed a live sample of it.
That was his next invention, something capable of absorbing and containing devil energy.
Then, he would look into these, Fallen Angels, he heard about.
What are the odds of there being one here? Probably very low.
