Author's Note: I don't remember if I said this in the first chapter so here it is! I do not own any rights to Highschool DxD! That honor is Ichiei Ishibumi's and his crew's only! I am just telling it the way I think it should have been told. Anyways, on to Chapter two! And to the guest who said this is exactly like the canon, I added way more details and if I recall correctly, which I know I do, You never hear Raynare's thoughts, Issei's power is not introduced at all until the second episode, Rias never talks about the pieces she used to reincarnate Issei until episode 5 or 6, Raynare never actually liked Issei at all in the Canon, Issei never got his left arm ran over by a car, and I can go on and on. Anyways! Time to actually go to Chapter 2! I will catch you all on the flip side! I realized I misspelled Dohnaseek. I apologize. I plan to fix that.
Chapter 2: I am Done Being Human!
I blushed dark red as Rias said, "Nice to meet you Issei Hyoudou." I took a deep breath as I heard my mother coming up the stairs. I ran around with my blanket covering my dick and balls. My mother said as she walked up the stairs, "Come on Issei! It's not National Go To School Whenever You Want Day! Every day with you! Who needs a treadmill when you're always running around in your room?" I ran over to Rias as I said, "Here! Cover up!" I jumped on her and covered her body with my blanket. What I didn't notice, was that my hands had gripped Rias's wrists and pinned her wrists above her head and my knee ended up between her legs right next to her pussy. My mother walked in and opened her mouth to speak. Suddenly, she gasped in disbelief and took a breath to steady herself. Rias looked over and smiled as she said, "Why good morning to you Mrs. Hyoudou." My mother said emotionless, "Issei, you're late, a-and naked." My mother closed the door to my room. Boom Boom Boom was the sound of my mother's footsteps as she ran down the stairs. I heard her say loudly to my father, "Do you know what he's doing up there?!" I heard my father reply, "Is he raping the girly mags again? Let the boy have his time!" I heard my mother reply, "No! She was real and she is in our son's room in bed with him!" I heard my father respond, "Wait. He has a girl up there?! No way! He finally grew a pair!" I dropped to my knees and said, "Dear God, please; make me a bird, so I can fly, far far away." I heard Rias say, "It's quite the party here in the morning isn't it?" I looked up and blushed as I saw that she had pushed the blankets off of herself and was sitting up with her right leg crossed over her left leg. I said, "You're not covered up anymore!" Rias replied, "I know." I exclaimed, "But I can see your stuff!" Rias giggled and said, "Want me to stand up so you can get a better view?" I blushed insanely red and muttered, "She didn't just say that. Girls don't say that! I must still be dreaming!" I put my hands together and said, "Thank you! Please don't wake me up." Rias stood up and asked, "How is your tummy?" I looked shocked and asked, "What?" Rias replied, "Where you were stabbed silly." I said to myself, "I was stabbed?" I thought to myself, 'How does she know about my dream? Was I talking in my sleep?' I heard Rias say, "Your body is amazing! I didn't expect that. You received quite a powerful blow and still were able to recover completely in just one night. The attack left you weak so I brought you to your house and laid next to you and used my magic to heal you." I blushed insanely red as I thought, 'Her parts touched mine! Wait! I just woke up in bed with Rias. She's naked. I'm naked! I could've had the most amazing night last night and I don't remember a damn thing! What kind of asshole blacks out on his first time!' Rias's voice broke my train of thoughts, "Don't worry. We didn't do it. I'm still a virgin." I chuckled weakly and said, "Nice. I am also a virgin. Isn't it awesome?" I thought to myself, 'No. It's not fucking awesome!' Rias gently put her hand underneath my chin and said, "Why the sour look? The world is a magical place. You should be smiling." I smiled weakly and said, "I am smiling now. See?" Rias caressed my neck gently and walked away. I could not help myself from watching her ass as she walked away. I watched Rias put on her panties and she grabbed her bra. She asked me, "Can you help me with this?" I jumped up and said enthusiastically, "Oh my God! Yes!" I walked over and grabbed her bra straps. I noticed that her lingerie was black and red. I snapped her bra on for her as I said, "So. How come I'm naked?" Rias giggled and said, "I already told you silly. Your injuries needed to be healed, or you were going to die. So, I stripped you and myself. I laid next to you and held you close as I used my magic to heal you. It only works if we are both completely naked." I chuckled and remembered something. I said to Rias, "So. I just remembered something weird." Rias asked me, "What is it?" I responded, "Well. You said something about being a Devil." Rias looked at me from the corner of her eye and smiled cutely as she said, "That's because I am one. I also said you're my Devil Servant. I like the name Issei. I'll let you keep it."
I walked to school with Rias by my side. As we arrived I heard all the guys say, "N-No fricking way! H-He had to have done her homework for her or something!" I heard all the girls say, "Is he supposed to be cool now?!" Most of the girls said, "Yes! And I think it's working!" I sighed and thought to myself, 'Let the games begin, but I guess that's what happens when you start hanging out with the hottest pair of jugs in school! Oh shit. Motohama and Matsuda are gonna stomp me! This is not good!' I took a breath as Rias and I walked into the school. Rias said to me, "Head to class. I will have someone fetch you later." I nodded and asked, "Shouldn't I walk you to class or something?" I sighed and started to walk to class when I heard my buddies voices behind me, "ISSEI YOU DICK!" I turned around only to catch a hay-maker across my face from Matsuda. I fell to the ground next to one of the school's main support pillars. I rubbed my face and said, "The hell was that for!" Matsuda said, his voice full of envy, "You know what it was for! We are supposed to be bros! Bros before hoes! How could you be tapping the Big Red on the down-low?!" Motohama said to Matsuda, "Now now Matsuda, Issei's our buddy. Let's give him a chance to explain." Motohama pointed his finger at me and asked, "Where did you go after school yesterday?! Spill it Hyoudou!" I laughed as my nose was bleeding and wiped my lips as I said, "I will be happy to explain it to you. You see, last night, I was rolling in some double D's!" Matsuda raised his fist to hit me again, but I caught it as I got up. I smirked and said, "Now now. Calm down. Let's just head to class." Matsuda looked at me in shock as I had easily caught his punch with my right hand. Matsuda sighed and said, "Fine. Let's go, but this isn't over Hyoudou."
Rias walked up the stairs and was greeted by a female voice, "I have never seen you take in someone so strongly. What makes him special?" Rias looked up and smiled, "Hey Sona. Well. I can't explain it, but I can say is that it feels like I just got a little brother." Sona chuckled and said, "I see. Have a good day Rias." Rias replied, "Likewise Sona." Sona walked away and Rias walked to her class.
I was sitting at my desk with my on it. I muttered, "Why do I feel so weak?" I looked out the window and saw that the Sun was shining directly on me. I muttered, "Could I actually be a Devil? And that's why I feel so weak during the day and so powerful at night? That has to be it." Suddenly, I heard all the girls in class squeal with glee. I turned to see a man walk into my classroom. He is a handsome young man with short blond hair, blue eyes with a mole under his left eye. The girls all said, "Sorry that it's not cleaner, Kiba Yuuto." Kiba smiled and said, "It's okay. I'm actually here to pick up a friend." I said to myself with hatred and envy, "Like oh my god. It's Prince Golden Nuts. Shut up." Kiba walked to my desk and said, "Hey. You're Issei Hyoudou right?" I replied without emotion, "Yeah. This is my desk. What's it to you?" Kiba replied in a friendly manner, "I'm here on an errand from Rias Gremory." I looked up and said, "Wait. Is this the fetching?" I slowly got up and the girls all said, "No way! Is Perv-tron about to walk out of here with Kiba-cheeks?! Kiba! Don't! You'll catch pervert. Your skin will turn green and you'll start to stink. Then all your friends will leave you and then you'll die alone and end up a virgin forever!" I said, clearly exasperated, "Calm down! I promise not to drain his pimp juice! Christ's sake." I followed Kiba out of class and to the Old school building.
Kiba opened the door for me and I thanked him with hesitation. Kiba nodded and we walked into the old school building. Kiba led me up the stairs to the Occult Research Club and he opened the main door. My jaw dropped as I saw a petite girl with white hair and hazel eyes. I saw that the front of her hair has two long bangs going past her shoulders and several loose bangs were hanging over her forehead, while the back of her hair has a short bob cut. She also wears a black cat-shaped hair clip on both sides of her hair. I said, "I think I know that girl!" Kiba looked at me and said to the girl, "Hey Koneko! My friend Issei here says that he knows you." Koneko nodded her head gently as she bit into a chocolate bar. I thought to myself, 'I am going to kill him! What guy doesn't know that perfect spinner body?! Koneko Toujou is the school mascot! All the girls hate her because all the guys wanna fuck her! I had no idea she was down with the ORC! And speaking of which, I wish I was that chocolate bar right now!' Koneko felt me looking at her and she said, "It isn't polite to stare you know." I gasped lightly. Suddenly, I heard water running. I looked towards the sound and blushed as I saw a shower with someone in it. I felt a nosebleed coming as I noticed the person showering was Rias and covered my nose with my hand as blood came from my nose. I said, "I just heard Rias take a shower! I love this club!" Kiba chuckled as he shook his head and Koneko said, "Pervert." I thought to myself, 'How did I get so motherfucking lucky?!' Suddenly, a feminine voice broke my train of thought, "You must be the new guy huh? My name is Akeno Himejama." I jumped back as I saw Akeno. Akeno is a beautiful young woman with a voluptuous figure, very long black hair and violet eyes. I noticed that her hair is tied in a long ponytail, reaching all the way down to her legs with two strands sticking out from the top and sloping backward, with an orange ribbon keeping it in place. Akeno giggled as I jumped back and she said, "Why so jumpy? Everyone here is super nice. I promise." I said shyly, moving my hand away from my nosebleed, "My name is Issei Hyoudou, and I promise that I am not usually this awkward." I thought to myself, 'Because I am usually never this close to a girl about to bust out of her top! Her boobs are massive! Even bigger the Rias's!' Akeno smiled and I heard Rias get out of the shower. I watched her walk out of the shower with her girl's uniform on and drying her hair. Rias said, "Oh. Hey Issei. Sorry about this. I didn't get a chance to shower before we left your house today." I said shyly, "No. You're hot. I mean fine." I realized I didn't examine Rias's body or hair last time, so I examined it. I saw that Rias is a beautiful young woman with white skin and blue eyes. I noticed that her most distinctive feature is her long, beautiful crimson hair that reaches down to her thighs, with a single hair strand sticking out from the top. Her hair also has loose bangs covering her forehead and side bangs framing her face. Rias said, "Now that Issei is here, I do believe everyone is present. Koneko, can you wipe Issei's nose bleed up with a tissue please." Koneko nodded and went to grab a tissue. I walked over to the couch and sat down. Koneko came back with a tissue and said, "Face me Issei." I nodded and faced Koneko. She gently wiped the blood from my nose with the tissue. I thanked Koneko and she nodded.
Rias called everyone's attention. I let my attention focus on Rias and she said, "Welcome to the Occult Research Club, Issei." Everyone welcomed me and Rias said, "But you should know that the name is just for show. This is supposed to look like a hobby or after-school activity." I asked, "Well. What is it really then?" Rias smiled and said, "Well. Since you asked, I will put it bluntly. I am not the only Devil in this room Issei." I looked around, my jaw dropped and I said, "A-All of you are Devils?" Everyone nodded and I got up swiftly. Rias continued, "Remember Yuuma Amano? Of course you do. You and her dated for a little while. Didn't you?" I said, "How do you know so much about my life? Actually, never-mind, I don't want to know. I am starting to feel uncomfortable here. I am going to leave." I started to leave when I saw Rias grab a photo and throw it onto the table. She asked, "Remember this photo? I love this photo of you two. You two looked so cute." I gasped in disbelief as I whispered, "Y-Yuuma?" Rias raised her voice and said, "That's right Issei! It wasn't a dream!" I backed up and almost fell over the couch and asked, "H-How did you get that photo? And if it wasn't a dream, then how come Matsuda and Motohama don't remember her at all?" Rias said to me, "She used memory erasing Magic. You see, when someone like her achieves their goal, they make sure to make everyone that is close to the target, forget about what they saw, said, etc. They basically erase themselves from existence." I nodded in understanding and asked, "Wait. What was her goal?" Rias said to me, "Her goal? Why she had to kill you of course, and she succeeded in killing you." My jaw dropped once more and I said, "So, when she stabbed me with that glowing spear of light, she actually killed me? So how the hell am I still alive?!" Rias sighed and said, "Because I brought you back as one of my Devil servants." Everyone stood up and Kiba said with a smile, "You're one of us now man." I saw black pointed wings erupt from everyone's back. I noticed that everyone was smiling. I felt a weird power explode from my body and I fell forwards. I looked at my back as best as I could and I saw that I also had the same black pointed wings as everyone else.
I asked Rias, "Why did Yuuma have to kill me?" Rias looked into my eyes and said, "Well. Because she had orders from her higher ups because of something inside you. Something called a Sacred Gear." Akeno nodded and said, "That's right Issei. You have the Sacred Gear." I blushed insanely red as I immediately thought she meant my cock and balls. I said swiftly, "W-Wait! My family jewels have some sort of magic power?! Doesn't that mean I am going to get trampled by eager females?! People are gonna fight over my one-eyed snake?! I could die because someone wants the power that my manhood has?!" Rias sighed and facepalmed as Akeno giggled. I heard Koneko say sarcastically, "What a catch you caught Rias." Akeno stopped giggling and said, "Basically. The Sacred Gear is a very powerful ability given to certain humans. The only ones I know of that have had it are famous inventors and such. So, you're kind of a big deal around here." I sighed with relief and said, "So, how do I activate it?" Rias smiled and sat on her desk and left her legs open, giving me a very clear shot of her see through thong. Rias said, "Issei, think of the part of you that you feel is the strongest." I said shyly as I scratched my chin with one finger, "S-So. We are doing this here?" Rias said sharply, "I need you to focus Issei!" I winced and said, "Right. I'm focusing." Rias replied, "Good. Now. Raise your left arm." I did as she said and raised my left arm. I responded, "Okay, but I am not very good a catch." Koneko sighed in disbelief and said to Rias, "Really Rias? He has got to be the dumbest boy in existence." Kiba said to Koneko, "Now, now Koneko. Give the guy a chance. He has obviously never activated it. It's hard the first few times." Koneko sighed and said, "I guess you're right. He's still a perverted idiot though." Kiba shook his head and said to me, "Sorry. Koneko is quite cold." I replied with sarcasm, "Really? I never would've guessed." Koneko looked me dead in the eyes and said with a straight face, "Suck it." I shook my head and focused as much as I could. Rias said, "There you go." I saw her legs spread a little more and I blushed as I felt my gaze rest on her see-through thong. I tried to move my gaze and I felt something inside me arise and I said loudly, "FOCUS!" Suddenly, the room was enveloped in a emerald green light as I saw what looked to be a Red Dragon's Hand appear on my left hand. A booming BOOST was heard the instant it activated. I looked at the equipment that had just appeared on my hand. It was a dull red with a green gemstone in the middle of it. Above the green gemstone was a little ruby. There was one yellowish-bronze spike on each side of the Sacred Gear and it looked like a dragon claw. It barely went past my wrist. Rias looked at it and she thought to herself, 'A Dragon's Hand? That's all he has?! Wait. A Dragon's Hand never boosts the instant it is activated.' After about 10 seconds a booming BOOST was heard again. Rias gasped in disbelief and thought to herself, 'N-No way! A second boost?! I need to research this more.' I felt the second power surge explode throughout my body, then all of a sudden I thought I heard a voice in my head say something and then I felt all the power disperse and leave me. I fell to my knees immediatly and coughed up blood. Rias yelled, "ISSEI!" I spit up more blood and put my hand up to let her know that I was okay. I got to one knee and put my right arm over it. I took a few shaky breaths and stood up slightly. My legs were still bent at about a 30 degree angle and I put my hands on my knees. I proceeded to take deeper breaths and stood up. I looked around and saw looks of worry on everyone's face except Koneko, and I chuckled as I made the Sacred Gear vanish off of my hand. I said, "So. That happened. I am fine everyone." I saw everyone's looks of concern fade away and get replaced with pride. Rias said to me, "Well done Issei. Looks like you have full access of your Sacred Gear. So, all you should have to do when you want to activate is think about it or say it. Same goes for deactivating it." I chuckled with relief as I said, "I am glad I figured out how to deactivate it that fast. It was really going to get in the way of my alone time. So, what just happened explains the freaky shit Yuuma was saying about Sacred Gears. She said that I should blame him, for he gave me the Sacred Gear." Rias gasped quietly to herself and whispered, "Yuuma said to blame him for he gave the Sacred Gear to Issei. That could only mean a couple things."
Rias ended the club meeting soon after revealing everyone in the club was a Devil. As I went to leave, Rias said, "Hey. Issei, I need you to stay a little longer. I still have to talk to you." I nodded and closed the door behind me as I walked back in. I asked, "What is it Rias?" Rias looked me in the eyes and said, "I suppose. I should tell you that Devils are not the only thing that exist. Angels and Fallen Angels exist, and we are constantly in a three-way battle with one another. Yuuma and Dohnaseek are both Fallen Angels, and that's why they had those black-feathered wings instead of white-feathered wings that normal Angels have." I felt my entire body tense up at the names Angel and Fallen Angels. Rias continued, "Humans mistake Devils and Fallen Angels as the same thing, which is entirely understandable as they too walk the Earth misguiding humans, but they want to serve God, but it is too late for them. They gave in to their desires so now they are also in our realm; you call it Hell; trying to get a foothold there." I nodded in understanding and Rias said, "Oh yeah. I also want you to pass out fliers." I asked, "Why?" Rias said to me as she handed me the fliers, "Well. You see, even though you a reincarnated human, you can still rise through the ranks to a Satan class Devil, and once you become a High class Devil, you can get some Servants of your own." I blushed red and said with a lecherous face, "I want some Servants." Rias smiled and said, "If your efforts are good, you will rise through the ranks easily." I smiled and asked with a lecherous face, "So. What if my efforts are phenomenal, does that mean that my servants have to obey me no matter what?" Rias giggled and said, "Yes." I continued, "And they're mine so I can do whatever I want to them right?" Rias smiled and said, "That's the great thing about servants, you can use them for anything." I said lecherously, "You do know where I am going with this right? It's gonna be sexy time! They'll be naked all the time!" Rias giggled and thought to herself, 'He is a strange one, but I got this feeling that he's going to be my strongest piece.' Rias said, "Head home for the night, but don't forget to pass out those fliers. You look overwhelmed." I said, "I am a little overwhelmed, you just explained some freaky stuff." Rias said, "Stick out your hand for me." I nodded and asked, "Is it going to hurt?" Rias grabbed my hand, and flipped it so my palm was facing up. She touched the center of my palm and a red sigil appeared on it. I looked at it and Rias said, "That's to show proof that you are of the Gremory family." I nodded and thanked her as I left.
I got on my bike with a handful of fliers and pedaled home handing out fliers all along the way. After I had handed all of the fliers out I began to pedal home. I looked around during the night and said, "Well. I can most certainly see better at night. So that's already a bonus. And the ability to have my own servants?! Why would I ever want to go back to being human! I am done being human!" Suddenly, my body tensed up and I saw someone walking towards me. I noticed by their walk that it was a female. I jumped off my bike and approached them as I said, "Are you lost? I can help you, I know this town like the back of my hand." I heard the woman say, "Why are you still alive?! She was supposed to deal with this already! Now I have to tie up her loose ends. Damn it Raynare!" I saw the lady sprout Black-feathered wings and I gasped as I said, "A Fallen Angel!" I saw her summon a spear of light and lunge towards me. I dodged to the left and the red sigil appeared on my hand again. The Fallen Angel saw it and said, "And you're a part of the Gremory Family?! That means it is even more important that YOU ARE DESTROYED!" I thought to myself, 'Am I about to die again?! Wait. The Sacred Gear!' I yelled, "SACRED GEAR!" the Sacred Gear appeared on my left hand and I heard a voice from the Sacred Gear say, "Explosion!" As soon as I heard that, a Green wave of Magic shot from my Sacred gear, instantly blowing away the Fallen Angel's clothing. I blushed as I felt my nose begin to bleed, and I saved the image of the naked Female Fallen Angel to the Gentleman's folder in my mind. She was knocked backwards from the power of the magic. She landed and asked, "Is that the Sacred Gear?! I have better things to do then die here! I am going to let someone else deal with this shit! This is not over Servant of the Gremory Family!" She flew away and I looked at my hand. I deactivated the Sacred Gear and walked back to my bike. I got on it and pedaled home.
The next day after school, I walked to the Occult Research Club. I walked into the clubhouse and walked to the meeting room. I walked in and everyone looked up and smiled as Kiba said, "So you do remember the way here." I chuckled and nodded, but looked down. Rias asked me, "What's wrong?" I said weakly, "I was attacked by a Fallen Angel yet again last night." Everyone gasped and Rias said, clearly shocked, "Well. You obviously won, but why didn't you tell us last night? We would've immediately came to help you." I replied, "I didn't want to bother you guys." Rias bit her tongue gently and said, "Well. Next time, don't fight alone. You got lucky. A single Devil, no matter their rank, can stand up to a Fallen one. Just because you have the Sacred Gear, does not mean you should fight them alone. It's insulting to the rest of us." I looked down and thought, 'Damn. I messed up.' I said, "Alright Rias. Sorry." Rias said, "It's okay, but this puts me in quite a conundrum. Not only do the Fallen Angels know that you're still alive, but now they know you've been reincarnated as a member of my house." I looked at Rias and saw how angry she was and she said, "I refuse to let those Angel Rejects hurt or kill my new favorite servant." I blushed lightly as I sat next to Koneko. We went through club activities and by the time it was all said and done, it was almost night. A magic circle appeared next to Akeno's ear and she nodded. Rias looked at me sitting next to Koneko and said, "Hey. Issei. Koneko is double booked tonight. I think you should make your big debut tonight by taking one of her summons." I looked at Koneko and she said emotionless, "That would be super rad." I nodded and Rias said, "Akeno! Prepare the circle for him to jump." Akeno nodded and walked into the middle of the room. I watched a magic circle form at her feet. Akeno finished it and said, "It's ready." Rias smiled and said to me, "You ready for this?" I replied, "Hell yeah!" Rias smiled brilliantly as she said, "Cute." I walked towards the circle and said, "I do this and I am one step closer to having my Harem." I snickered and stood in the middle of the circle. I felt the the power flow to my body as the back of my hair started to float. I thought of how I wanted to greet the person who summoned me. So when the light died, I struck a confident pose and said with confidence, "You're the one who summoned the Devil right? What can I do for you?" I opened my eyes and saw the Occult Research Club. I heard Kiba chuckle once as I said, "Dafuq?" Rias had facepalmed herself and said, "Looks like you can't make the jump. Don't panic. There is another way. Go by bike." I said with discomfiture, "What kind of Devil shows up by bike?!" I saw Koneko raise her hand and point at me as she said, "The useless kind. Fits you perfectly." I said with slight sadness, "Damn Koneko. That's cold. Even for you." Koneko said, "Suck it." I shook my head and walked out of the clubhouse to my bike.
I jumped on my bike and rode to the location that Rias gave me. I arrived in about 15 minutes. I parked my bike outside of the apartment complex and walked up to the summoner's apartment. I knocked on the door and said, "Mr. Morisawa. Devil knocking on your door! You here?" I heard someone walk towards the door and open it slightly. He said, "You're not Koneko. And besides, what kind of Devil knocks on the front door?! Get the hell out of here."" He slammed the door in my face and I dropped to my knees and cried as I said, "Look! I tried okay! I couldn't do it! And then they sent me on bike, on a bike!" Morisawa opened the door and said, "Fine. Come in." I sniffled and wiped my eyes gently as I said, "Thank you." I got up and walked into his house.
Since I was not able to do exactly as Morisawa wanted, I couldn't form a pact. I sighed as it was already morning. I muttered to myself, "At least it's Saturday. No school today." As I was walking home, I saw a someone in a Nun's outfit fall. I walked over to help but felt a sharp pang in my chest, as if warning me to not approach the person. I shrugged it off and walked over to help them.
I do not know if it as long as the first chapter. I just wanted to get this chapter out. It's been awhile since I have felt so strongly about one of my fanfictions. I am thinking about making chapters about 2 or more episodes at a time. It would take longer for me to post a chapter, but we could get through the anime faster. And once we get past Season 4, that is when the fun gets to begin and I get to use my creative nature to it's fullest. And maybe even get a few lemons for those who want them. Just know, I will most certainly have guys fuck each other. I am sorry if that upsets some of you, but I'd feel uncomfortable. Now girls having some fun with each other to prepare for Issei, I can do. I might even throw in multiple girls with Issei instead of some one on one training sessions. So, tell me what you all think! I look forward to the reviews! Again, please recall that I am using Wordpad so please forgive grammar and spelling errors. This is HappytheExceed16! SIGNING OUT! BOOSTED STYLE! There were some more changes, but as the story progresses, I promise. There will be some big changes in due time.
