Recap:

Shit! I want to dodge. But I'd be a pussy if I did that. I'd rather counter it. Issei thought.

Oh god, what am I going to do?! Issei thought.

"Here comes the big boy!" Bahamut yelled.

"Come on! SACRED GEAR, AWAKEN!"

WELSH DRAGON, ULTIMATE BALANCE BEAKER!

"Hello there Issei, It truly has been a while." Ddraig said.

Issei slowly turned his head around. Only to see a large Western Dragon with a long neck and emerald green eyes. With golden spikes throughout his body.

"Ddraig? is that y-you? Issei asked.

"Of course, who else would have a voice like this?" Ddraig asked.

"H-How do you have a body?! That doesn't make any sense..." Issei said.

Ddraig turned his head to see Bahamut, just standing there with a shocked expression. Then he glanced back at Issei.

"You're right, This body is only temporary. As you just summoned me out of the Sacred Gear." Ddraig explained.

"But that doesn't matter right now, look at your balance breaker! you've unlocked the final form." Ddraig continued.

"Yeah, I guess it does look pretty awsome." Issei said.

"I'd say. You have the power of a High-Class God. Also, hello there Ddraig." Bahamut said.

Ddraig tensed a bit at heated that voice. At first, he didn't believe it was him. But his power and his race were undeniable proof that it was him.

"B-Bahamut?" Ddraig asked.

"Haha! It really has been a long time." Bahamut said.

"Sigh~ it really has, you've been doing a good job of training him. Thank you." Ddraig said.

"No problem, I enjoyed spending time with the kid if I'm being honest. Just three months ago he was in the depths of despair. It was, it was kinda sad honestly." Bahamut said.

Issei grew tick marks on his forehead.

"A little rude, don't you think?" Issei said.

"Sure, But I ain't wrong." Bahamut replied.

"Fair enough." Issei said.

"Also Ddraig, I have a question.." Issei spoke.

"Yes? Go on." Ddraig said.

Issei took in a large breath before speaking. Ddraig knew he was going to be ranting about something for a while.

"Why the hell did it take 3 months for you awaken?! You said I'd only be 3 weeks!" Issei yelled

"Ok, well here's some information. I've never done a process like this before! Didn't I tell you there would be side effects that I would not be aware of? This is one of them." Ddraig explained.

"Sigh~ listen Issei, I'm tired right now, sure I just woke up, but that doesn't mean I'm not tired. I'm going to sleep." Ddraig said.

Suddenly, Ddraig's body slowly dissipates and seals itself in the sacred gear. But his armor never disappeared.

"Listen, kid, I really didn't expect you to awaken the gear last second like that. Again, you've somehow managed to impress me." Bahamut said.

"But for now, let's take a break. Didn't you say you have dinner with Gabriel?" Bahamut asked.

"You're right. It hasn't started, but I should definitely start getting ready." Issei said.

"Also, I may consider confessing my feelings to her during the time out." Issei said.

His words nearly made Bahamut fall back a bit.

"Woah.. confess? Kid, you're fucking crazy." Bahamut said.

"Why? Are you saying it's a bad idea?" Issei asked nervously.

"No, that's not what I'm saying. I'm genuinely impressed. YOU LIKE WOMEN?!" Bahamut yelled.

"IS THAT SERIOUSLY YOUR MAIN CONCERN RIGHT NOW?!" Issei asked.

"Sigh~ of course it is. You've changed a lot, but in a good way." Bahamut stated.

But Issei wasn't listening, he was lost in thought. And he had a flashback..

Flashback: 2 months ago. Hotel room, 4:35 AM.

A/N: We are currently in Issei's dream.

Issei is seen sitting on a park bench looking war-torn. He looked way too exhausted to have functional bones.

As he is sitting there looking into the night sky, A group of people show up.

"Issei, what are you doing here?" A female voice asked.

Issei turned his eyes a bit to the right to see a red-haired woman with blue eyes.

It was Rias. And the rest of the peerage.

No, no, please.. I beg you... I don't want to go through this again... please god stop this! Issei thought.

"Hey! Pervert, IM TALKING TO YOU. DON'T YOU DARE IGNORE ME."

But Issei just turned his eyes back to himself.

"Akeno." Rias said.

"Right!" Akeno said.

Akeno summoned lightning above Issei, aiming right toward him.

It hit him. But canceled out.

"Hey pervert, can you hear us?" Koneko asked.

Issei stood up from his seat. It was a miracle how he was standing, even after all that he's been through.

"Oh, so you can hear us." Rias said.

The entire peerage had an extremely horrifying grin on their face. As if just wanting to kill the being in front of them.

"Why? Issei whispered to himself.

The rest of the peerage couldn't hear him, so they asked.

"Sorry? I can't hear you. Just what the hell is that immature brain of yours thinking? You're worthless! GOOD FOR NOTHING PERVERT." Rias roared.

God, or satan.. why are you doing this to me? Just as I thought my life was slowly getting better, this happens. I just want to die. Please.. just end me here. Issei thought.

"Shut up.." Issei said.

"Who the hell do you think you're talking to? Someone as lowly as you shouldn't be talking to Rias like that. You're only in this peerage because you have the Boosted Gear. Nobody likes you. We despise your existence." Akeno said.

Issei had enough.

Welsh Dragon, Balance Breaker! Ddraig roared.

Issei woke up.

"GAHHH!" Issei yelled.

That scream alone was enough to wake Gabriel up from her sleep.

"Issei?! What's wrong?!" Gabriel asked.

Gabriel's arm reach out to where she could turn on the lamp next to the bed, she turned it on.

Gabriel looked back to Issei, tears were coming out of his eyes.

"Issei? Why are you crying?" Gabriel asked worriedly.

"I had a terrible dream about those people. I don't know what do to anymore. I've been so scared, b-but I don't know why.." Issei said.

"Oh, Issei.." Gabriel said.

Gabriel pulled Issei into her embrace.

"Just sleep closer to me for the night. I promise, you'll be fine." Gabriel said.

The two put their head back into the pillow.

"Thank you, Gabriel." Issei whispered.

Flashback: End.

"Issei? Hello?" Bahamut asked.

Bahamut had been trying to get back to Issei for the past 2 minutes, but he wouldn't respond.

Suddenly, Issei woke up.

"Huh? Bahamut?" Issei asked.

"Yeah, it's me. What happened to you? It looked like you were having a flashback of some sort." Bahamut said.

"Because I was." Issei said.

"Oh? About what?" Bahamut asked.

"Nothing. But listen Bahamut, Something recently just came up. I have to leave." Issei said.

Bahamut raised an eyebrow at the boy's words. why was he leaving so soon?

"Sigh~ You know what? I'm not questioning it. Do what you gotta do." Bahamut said.

"Thank you, Bahamut."

Issei summoned a magic circle leading back to his hotel.

The first thing he did was wake up Tiamat, who was sleeping in his bed. ]

Issei walked up to Tiamat, moving her arm a bit. She woke up.

"Huh? Issei?" Tiamat mumbled.

"Yeah, it's me. Can I speak to you?" Issei asked.

"Huh? Yeah sure." Tiamat spoke.

Tiamat slowly stood up from the bed.

"So, What do you need to say? Tiamat asked.

Issei was a little hesitant as to how Tiamat would react.

"Sigh~ Ddraig is awake." Issei said.

Tiamat's eyes widened in anger. But before she could say anything, somebody spoke.

"DAMMIT ISSEI, WHY DID YOU TELL HER?!" Ddraig roared.

"Oh... This will be fun.." Tiamat said.

"Wait, Tiamat, before you do anything, please remember the fact that we're in a neutral part of the city." Issei said.

Tiamat heard Issei's words she knew he was right. But she just wanted to kill Ddraig.

"Listen, Tiamat. I will start looking for the treasures. Just please, forgive Ddraig. " Issei said.

Tiamat was a little surprised at the boy's words. But she agreed to his words regardless.

(Issei, but why? You don't even know where the treasures are, and what are the chances of you finding them?) Ddraig asked.

(Well, I was hoping you had some idea of where the treasures are. Do you?) Issei asked.

(I think I do, But again, It may not be there. The treasures were scattered around the world.) Ddraig said.

(I guess that's better than not knowing at all.) Issei said.

That's where this chapter comes to an end. Also, Please understand this is a Fanfiction. The story I'm writing doesn't have to align with the actual canon. If you disagree. You can piss off and read some other story. But, I will try to make it align with the cannon.

ok that's all byee
