Chapter 6: Kidnapped and Rescue
"Stupid priest…" Aaron scowled as he glared at a glass of water that sat motionless in front of him on his dining table.
"Problem?" The voice of his childhood friend, Rias Gremory asked as she sat across from him while sipping on a glass of iced tea.
"Considering the rogue priest that hurt Miyuki managed to slink away like the cowardly rat he is, I'm in a bit of a bind." Aaron replied as he took a gulp from his water.
"A rogue priest?" Rias looked at the hunter in surprise.
"Yeah, long story short, there's a madman going around killing people who even think of making deals with Devils." Aaron stated.
The crimson-haired girl looked down with an expression of guilt, "So it's my fault…"
"I didn't say that."
"You were thinking about it."
Aaron gave the Gremory heiress silence, confirming her suspicion.
"You don't have to hide your true feelings on the matter. I can take the guilt." Rias told the young man.
"Sorry, that's the hunter in me. I never really trusted the supernatural all that much, especially in my line of work." Aaron apologized.
"So you still don't trust me…"
"I really want to, Rias. But people change. I'm not the same boy you met all those years ago."
Rias looked down with a mournful smile, "Yeah… I can definitely see that."
Aaron sighed, "Look, let's dispense with the unpleasant side of this conversation and talk about something else. Like how about we hang out, like we used to as kids?"
The crimson-haired girl looked at her friend in surprise with a tint of scarlet present on her cheeks as a coy smile graced her beautiful features, "Oh? Asking me out on a date, huh?"
The dark-haired boy already figured out the Devil's tease and responded with one of his own, "Well, I don't hear a no." He smirked.
Rias pouted but her cheeks were still flushed from the offer, "Alright, what did you have in mind?"
"Trip to the mall, see a movie, have dinner, or maybe just hang out at an arcade. You know, the usual thing that best friends do." Aaron said, his smirk remaining.
"How about all of the above?" Rias asked, causing Aaron to spit out his drink in a mist form.
"Wow, you've gotten bolder in the last few years, Rias." Aaron looked at his childhood friend in surprise. "What's the occasion?"
"Well… we haven't seen each other in so long, so I figured this was the best way to catch up." Rias pointed out.
"But does it really have to be all at once?"
"I mean, do you not want to?" She asked, giving him the puppy dog eyes.
Aaron sighed, "Okay, okay, we'll do all of them."
Rias smiled brightly at this, "Great! And you're paying for everything!"
'Dammit… my wallet's going to cry…' Aaron thought to himself in dread.
"I was right…" Aaron whined with comical tears in his eyes as he looked at his near-empty wallet. They had first gone to the arcade as Rias wanted to play a few games to release any pent up stress she had bottled up while working, then they went to watch a movie at the theater, which was fine. But then it started getting out of hand when they went to the mall. She went shopping left and right, spending her money (Aaron's actually) on odds and ends and the young man was left to carry most of it. And when she was done shopping, they went to the most expensive restaurant in town and bought the most expensive food and wine money can buy.
'Dang it Rias! I'm not gonna be able to pay this month's rent!' Aaron mentally cursed his friend.
"Oh, this was so wonderful! I had a lot of fun today, Aaron." Rias said with a bright smile while carrying several shopping bags filled with either clothes or other items.
"Glad you enjoyed it." Aaron replied with a strained smile.
"I'm so happy that I get to spend time with you after all these years. It's as if you never left in the first place."
"Yeah, it reminds me of our days as little kids. I remember one time I was riding my skateboard and you wanted to ride with me." Aaron said with a chuckle. "Keep telling you that we wouldn't both fit but you were stubborn."
"You were about to tell me I was fat," Rias pouted.
"I did not!"
"You were too!"
"Okay, maybe I was." The boy admitted with a shrug. "But I also remember that one time when you were sleeping over at my house and you wanted to braid my hair. I said no, but you didn't like that answer."
"Your hair was so long, I couldn't help it."
"You knew that I was clearly a boy."
"A boy with very long hair."
"You gave me pigtails." He said dryly.
"But you were so cute!" She retorted with a little cheer.
"My mom took a freaking picture."
"I still have it."
"You what?!" Aaron gawked, and Rias produced said photo into her hand. "Gimme that! I'll burn it!" He shouted, as he tried to grab the photo.
"Nope!" Rias held the photo away from the boy, who tried to swipe it from her. "This is something your mom gave me and I'm going to keep it."
"I said, gimme that thing!" The hunter exclaimed in comical anger.
A mischievous idea came to Rias as she unbuttoned the first three buttons on her top to reveal her impressive cleavage then she placed the photo in between her breasts. "Still want it~?" She teased.
"Why you…" Aaron growled.
"Either way, I win~!"
The teenage hunter narrowed his eyes. If he backed down, he'd never get rid of the evidence of his own humiliation. If he went for it, he'd be considered a pervert and Rias would enjoy having her boobs touched.
*RING* *RING* *RING! ANSWER YOUR PHONE, MOTHERFUCKER!*
"Uh, one second." Aaron said to his friend as he answered his cell. "Hello? This is him. A job? What is it? Are you kidding? Yeah, there's no- How much? Mhm. I see. Alright, I'm on the case." He hung up after the call finished.
"Who was that?" Rias asked.
"Nothing. Work. Give me that damn photo."
"Rias? Aaron?"
The two stopped and looked up to see Asia and Miyuki.
"Uh… hi." Aaron said awkwardly before straightening himself out.
"What are you two doing?" Miyuki asked, crossing her arms.
"We're on a date." Rias told her Pawn with a coy smile.
"Huh?"
"And who is this?" Rias inquired, staring at Asia.
"Huh? Oh, this is Asia Argento." Miyuki said, "She's a nun sent by the Vatican."
"A nun?"
"Oh yeah, that guy I talked about tried to kill her too." Aaron mentioned nonchalantly.
The crimson-haired heiress glared at her childhood friend, "And you didn't mention this before?"
"I thought Miyuki told you."
"No…" Gremory Peerage King then turned her glare on Miyuki. "No, she didn't."
The brunette girl chuckled sheepishly with a nervous grin on her face, "I'm in trouble, aren't I?"
"Please don't be so harsh on her." Asia said, gaining Rias's attention and Miyuki's surprise. "She's been so kind and hospitable to me during my stay in this town. If not for her rescuing me, I wouldn't be standing here."
Rias stared at Asia for a moment before looking at her Pawn, "You know she is a member of the Church. An enemy to us Devils, correct? Are you certain you trust her?"
Miyuki gave the heiress a resolute stare, "With my life."
Rias looked at her Pawn a moment longer, before sighing, "Very well. I will overlook this."
"Really?"
"Under one condition." Rias said, "You and Aaron are to be watching over her until this whole thing with the rogue priest is over with. Meaning, she is your responsibility. Understood?"
Miyuki smiled and nodded, "Got it! Thank you, Buchou!"
"Don't thank me, Miyuki. I still don't trust her." Rias reminded the reincarnated Devil.
"That's the pot calling the kettle black…" Aaron deadpanned.
"Hush, you!"
"Make me!"
Miyuki sweatdropped at the sight of the two arguing before glancing at Asia, "Maybe we should leave them alone?"
"Are you sure?" The blonde nun asked in a shy manner.
"Positive. We'd just be third wheels here." She then urged the nun gently away from them. "How about we go for some ice cream?"
"I'd love that." Asia smiled brightly.
'Ohhhh, if only she wasn't a nun~!' Miyuki squealed in her thoughts.
The two girls left Aaron and Rias alone, who continued to complain and argue even minutes after they left.
"Well, that was awkward." Miyuki said while she licked her ice cream cone. Chocolate being a personal favorite of hers while Asia got herself a vanilla ice cream cone.
"Yes, it was… strange." Asia said.
"You really didn't have to defend me like that, you know." Miyuki said. "I could've handled whatever punishment Rias dished out."
"Really?" Asia asked, tilted her head as she looked unconvinced.
Miyuki paused, then grimaced, "Uh, maybe not entirely. But I probably could." She admitted.
"You don't sound so sure." Asia frowned sadly.
'Dammit, no, please don't give me the look!' Miyuki pleaded in her thoughts.
"Miyuki-san, please be honest." Asia said, trying to look intimidating but only making herself seem cuter.
"Okay, I might be a little scared." The Pawn admitted, unable to resist the nun's shockingly weaponized cuteness. But the 'intimidation' continued to make the brunette look weak. "Okay, I'm totally afraid!"
"See? Now was that so hard?" Asia smiled brightly.
'Yes! How can anyone say no to that face!?' Miyuki squealed in her thoughts.
"Miyuki-san, you really don't have to lie to me to make me feel better." Asia began. "Even though you're a Devil, you're still a kind soul. So please… try not to taint it any further."
The reincarnated Devil looked at the girl in surprise before smiling, "You don't have to worry about that. Besides, I have a nun to help prevent that."
"Eh?" Asia squeaked.
'Holy crap, that was cute and adorable!' Miyuki squealed and gushed. 'If this keeps up, I might invoke Rule 43 sooner than later!'
"How sweet. A Devil and a nun fraternizing. It's so beautiful to make one sick." A voice interjected. Miyuki's devil senses suddenly kicked into overdrive as she and Asia turned around. Both of them dropped their ice creams at the sight of a figure standing there… with black angel wings folded down at the moment.
"Asia… get behind me…" Miyuki muttered softly and the nun did as told.
"Oh? Are you going to challenge me, girl?" The Fallen Angel, a middle-aged-looking man with short black hair and dark blue eyes while dressed in a pale gray trench coat over a white dress shirt with a matching ascot, black pants and shoes, a pair of black gloves, and a black fedora, inquired. "I should warn you. I do not intend to go easy on you."
"Asia… when I tell you to, you need to run." Miyuki said.
"W-What?" Asia gasped. "But… I can't just leave you."
"This isn't up for discussion right now." Miyuki told the nun.
"It won't matter, Devil girl. Besides, she's the one I came here for. You're just in the way." The Fallen Angel coldly remarked before he summoned a light spear then threw it at the girls.
Miyuki spread her devil wings and grabbed Asia before flying up and taking off. "Hang on!" She said, before flying off.
"You can't escape. I have thousands of years worth of battle experience." The Fallen Angel chastised as he summoned his own wings and flew after the girls… at a faster pace.
"Damn!" Miyuki cursed. She then mentally produced a small magic circle near her lips since she can't use her cell phone, so communicating with someone via magic was the next best thing. "Rias! A Fallen Angel is flying after me and Asia! I can't shake them- WHOA!" She cried out dodging a Spear of Light while still holding onto Asia.
"What did you say? A Fallen Angel!?" Her King's voice echoed over the spell that she was taught.
"Yeah, like I said, I'm trying to get away with Asia, but I can't shake them off! UWHAAAA!" She dodged another Spear of Light aiming for her. "Hurry up and save us!"
"I love it when they run." The Fallen Angel smirked as he continued his hunt.
Moments earlier…
"Haaa… haaa… let's just call this argument a draw, yeah?" Aaron groaned tiredly.
"I say, I still won." Rias pouted.
"Take the draw…" Aaron groaned.
Rias was about to say something, but then a small magic circle the size of her ear appeared next to said ear. "Rias! A Fallen Angel is flying after me and Asia! I can't shake them- WHOA!" She cried out dodging a Spear of Light while still holding onto Asia.
"What did you say? A Fallen Angel!?" Rias gasped as did Aaron.
"Yeah, like I said, I'm trying to get away with Asia, but I can't shake them off! UWHAAAA!" She cried out as they heard her dodging something. "Hurry up and save us!"
Aaron sighed, "Do I have to keep saving her every time she's in trouble?" He groaned.
"This is not the time for whining! Go rescue my Pawn!"
"Geez, you're pushy…" With one last sigh, Aaron took off to find them, running along the sidewalk. "Saber, Berserker, you got an eye on them?"
"Sorry, Master. But we're not Archer. We can only pick up signatures similar to Servants." Saber apologized over the mental link.
'So, I'm shit out of luck then. Damn, gotta look for them the hard-' As he grumbled in his head, his instincts honed from countless hunts warned him of immediate danger. Throwing himself forward, Aaron avoided a Light Spear from skewering where he was previously.
"Aww shit, that better not be who I think it is…" Aaron groaned, looking at the spot where he would have been impaled before turning around to the source.
Thankfully, it wasn't Raynare. Unfortunately, it was a different Fallen Angel. Said Fallen Angel is a tall and buxom woman with brown eyes and long, navy blue hair that obscured her right eye. She wore a maroon, trench coat-like top with a wide collar, a matching miniskirt, and black heeled shoes. The trenchcoat top was open at her chest, giving view to her breasts and cleavage. She also wore a gold necklace around her neck. She appears to wear a white shirt underneath her top, but it can only be seen from the bottom.
Overall, Aaron had one word to say, "Da~mn." He uttered with a smirk. "And what can I do for you, good-looking?"
"Flattery won't get you anywhere, hun." The Fallen Angel said. "But if you don't mind dying, then I'd greatly appreciate it."
"Tempting, but I'll have to pass on that. Berserker, wreck this bitch apart." Aaron said with his arms folded.
"What?" Before she knew it, the raging battle cry of an angry Fran echoed behind her. When she turned around, she was greeted with a mace hitting her face. The Fallen Angel was sent flying, before using her wings to slow herself down.
"Good girl. Keep her busy while I find the girls. I'll treat you to ice cream after." Aaron said with a two-finger salute, to which Fran nodded and grunted, before taking off.
"Get back here, you-" The woman tried to pursue but was stopped by Berserker, who forced the Fallen Angel on the defensive.
"You… go… nowhere…!" Fran snarled as her partially opened mace crackled dangerously with electricity.
The Fallen Angel sneered, "If you want to die that badly," She summoned a Light Spear and prepared for a fight. "Then Kalawarner of the Grigori shall happily do so."
"Hold still, you filthy Devil!" The trench coated Fallen Angel demanded as he kept throwing spear after spear towards Miyuki, still carrying Asia while dodging and spinning in the air while still flying.
"I can't if you keep throwing Light Spears at me!" Miyuki shouted.
"Do you think this is a game? Don't insult me!" The Fallen Angel growled as he picked up speed towards the Devil girl.
"Sorry Asia, just hold on for a little bit longer." Miyuki gritted her teeth.
"I-I know…" Asia whimpered, still holding onto Miyuki for dear life. She truly was scared and Miyuki didn't blame her.
"Promises only make it worse." The Fallen Angel said before smirking. "By the way, you should watch where you're flying."
"Wha-" Before Miyuki knew it, a high-heeled boot slammed into her face, sending her and Asia crashing into the ground.
"You just can't seem to stay dead. That's the problem with humans. Cockroaches, every single one of you."
Miyuki groaned as she looked up to see Raynare standing there, with a sadistic grin of satisfaction on her face. Seeing the very person who ended her human life made Miyuki's blood boil with rage, the very thought of revenge clouding her mind.
"You…" Miyuki growled.
"Me." She said with a coy smirk.
"Took you long enough, Raynare." The male Fallen Angel remarked.
"Shut up, Dohnaseek. I had to make sure that Kalawarner memorized the other target."
"Oh right, the human boy with the Sacred Gear that summoned Heroic Spirits."
"I will have to deal with him later." Raynare said, before looking down at Miyuki and an unconscious Asia. "But first, we're here to do business."
"Don't you dare lay your finger on her, bitch!" Miyuki snapped.
"Hm, cute. You're pretending to be threatening." Raynare taunted as she floated down and landed beside Miyuki… then jabbed a Light Spear into the Pawn's stomach.
"AAGGGGGH!" Miyuki screamed as blood spewed out of her mouth.
"Hahahahahahaha! To think I'd be able to kill you twice now!" Raynare laughed. "Maybe this will get your boyfriend to come running and-"
*SLASH!*
"Eh?" Raynare didn't have time to think as she looked behind, seeing that a familiar pink-haired samurai was behind her, blades already drawn. She then realized on the ground were her black angel wings.
…
…
…
"Ah… AaaaAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" Raynare screamed in pure agony as the pain of losing all of her wings as she keeled over.
"Whew… made it just in time." Musashi sighed in relief.
"Saber…" Miyuki gasped in relief.
"Heya. You okay?" Musashi winked.
"Took you… long enough." Miyuki coughed out more blood. "Where's-"
"How many times am I gonna have to save your ass, Miyuki?"
Miyuki turned her head to the other side to see Aaron standing there and the trench coat Fallen Angel had already keeled over from a quick punch to the gut courtesy of him.
"S-Shut up… not like I had a choice." Miyuki got out.
"Yeah, yeah, shut up and let me do my job." Aaron said as he brought out Grail and checked it over. "You've got some balls on you, Ray-Ray."
"Damn human…" Raynare spat with pure unadulterated anger.
"I thought the ass-whopping I gave you last time would've been enough incentive to stay the fuck away. Looks like I'm gonna have to punish you." Aaron continued. "It's really pathetic that Saber had to clip both of your wings. Now you're just like a regular sinful human as the rest."
"You think you've won…?" Raynare growled.
"Uh, your fellow Fallen just got their asses kicked, you have no wings, and…" Aaron aimed Grail at Raynare's face. "…I have a gun pointed at your brain. So from where I'm standing, I'm pretty sure I have won."
This time, Raynare smirked, "Wrong."
*BANG!*
Aaron's eyes widened in surprise followed by a searing pain in his right shoulder. When he looked at his shoulder, he saw a fist-sized hole in it.
"Well… shit."
*PLOP!*
"AARON!" Miyuki screamed as he fell over.
"Master!" Musashi shouted, seeing that her Master had fallen.
"Man, that felt good!" A familiar deranged voice echoed. Stepping from out of the shadows was the rogue priest, Freed. "Been wanting to shoot that shitty bastard all day!"
"Impeccable timing, priest." Raynare remarked as she stood up then kicked Musashi in the gut, sending the Saber crashing into the side of a car. "Though you could have done that before the samurai whore cut off my wings."
"Oh, quit your bitching. Once we get what we need from the nun, it won't even matter."
"You fucking shithead! I'm gonna kill you!" Miyuki screeched.
"Huh? What, you're still alive?" Freed looked at her with disdain.
*BANG!*
Miyuki coughed up blood as a light bullet struck her chest. The Holy energy slowly cooked her organs from the inside.
"Man, I love that expression on her face. Too bad she's a Devil, I would've given her a different perspective in getting that reaction." Freed smirked as he stared down at the wounded and slowly dying Pawn. Then he shrugged, "Ah, what the hell. One little honk won't hurt." With no sense of shame, Freed roughly grabbed and groped Miyuki's breast, much to the girl's despair and embarrassment. "Honk, honk." He grinned pervertedly.
"Enough, grab the nun and let's get out of here!" Raynare growled.
"Alright, alright, geez, don't get your pussy scrunched up in a bunch." Freed rolled his eyes.
"Idiot…" Raynare scowled, leveling one last glare at Miyuki then at Aaron, or rather, the Artificial Gear that rested on the ground. It was so tempting to take. Just steal it and the power of every known legendary figure in history would be hers to command.
"Hey, are we going or not?" Freed asked, as he had the unconscious nun over his shoulder.
The Fallen Angel shook her head then scoffed, "Yeah. Let's go. Hopefully, the others will return to our base."
"…ron… ke up…" A muffled voice called out.
"Five more minutes…" Aaron mumbled.
*POW!*
"OW!" Aaron suddenly sat up, but then keeled over. "Who the fu-" He stopped when he realized that he was back in the club room with the other members of the ORC standing around and he saw Koneko's fist clenched. "Geez, what was that for?!"
"You didn't wake up." Koneko said.
"Besides the obvious…" Aaron growled. "You couldn't have used water?"
"This was faster."
"I'm taking your snacks next time I see you."
"Already hid them." Koneko pouted.
"Hmph…"
"Aaron!" Rias rushed over to hug him. "Thank goodness you're alright."
"Owowowow, easy. I had a fist sized hole through my shoulder…" Aaron winced. "Fuck, I can't believe someone got the drop on me. I've gotten soft."
"Aaron, you've been out for over an hour."
"Oh," The crimson-eyed teen hummed in response. "Well, at least it ain't a three-day coma."
"Ara…" Akeno murmured.
"More importantly, where are the girls?" Aaron asked, but the group remained silent. "Guys? What happened? Where are they?"
"The nun's missing and Miyuki's been seriously wounded. We had to act fast or she would've died." Yuuto answered.
"Fuck…" Aaron cursed. "I'm doing a shitty job keeping an eye on those two. Which means…" He trailed off.
"Aaron, what are you thinking?"
"I need to summon another Servant."
"What!?" Rias exclaimed. "You can't do that!"
"Who says I can't?" Aaron remarked as he folded his arms. "In case you haven't noticed, I already have two Servants in my employ. A third one won't hurt."
"But-"
"Rias, I don't know why you're against me summoning, but please, no offense… shut your hole and let me work." Aaron stated. He reached into his jacket pocket and drew out a card. "Huh, perfect. Just what I need." Taking Grail in hand, he had the barrel flipped down to reveal the slot, then he pushed the card inside the slot as a red alchemical circle materialized beneath his feet.
"Past the boundaries of time and space, Guardian of the Holy Balance, I evoke you. Set your eyes upon your prey!" Red markings appeared on Aaron's cheeks, which glowed with an unnatural light. With a pull of the trigger, the circle beneath his feet moved to the barrel of the gun and from out of it, a figure emerged. "Come forth, Servant Archer!"
Standing before them was a huntress who wore beautiful green clothing, clad in verdant green with her cold, sharp eyes containing a beastly glint. Her hair is stretched out long and unkempt, and it is completely lacking in the silkiness that would be found amongst those of noble birth. As one who can be called a beautiful beast in human form, it befits her appearance. Her charm points consist of those things on her head that look like animal ears and that thing on her lower back that looks like a tail. Her animal ears and tail seem to be the symbols and after-effects of a curse told in her legend… or so they should have been.
"I am Servant Archer - Atalanta." The woman knelt on one knee. "Upon my bow, I swear fealty and loyalty to thee. Guide my arrow to be straight and true and thy enemies will fear thee."
"Welcome, Huntress of Artemis. I am glad to have your services." Aaron greeted Archer.
"Atalanta? As in the one who slew the Calydonian Boar?" Rias asked.
"The very same. I need someone not only skilled in tracking down prey but good with a bow. Atalanta came up as the perfect candidate." Aaron explained.
"…Cat ears and tail." Koneko noticed. "Kawaii…"
Atalanta had the nerve to blush slightly.
"Oi, don't flirt with my Archer." Aaron said dryly. "Anyways, Archer. I need you to track down some Fallen Angels who took a nun hostage. One of them already had their wings clipped off so there's bound to be a trail of blood."
"Understood, Master." Atalanta nodded as she used her keen senses to begin her hunt.
"In the meantime, I need to heal this wound." Aaron said as he looked at the hole in his shoulder. "And when I see that bastard, I'm gonna put a hole in his head."
Asia slowly opened her eyes. What had happened? The last thing she remembered was being taken away by Miyuki, fleeing that Fallen Angel, and then suddenly crashing on the ground. When she came to, she found herself in a dark lair beneath an old abandoned church. She looked to her left and right and that her hands and feet were chained to a cross. She was crucified!
"Ah, the little nun is awake…" Freed smirked as she saw him there.
"W-What are you going to do to me?" Asia asked in fear.
"To extract that rare gift of yours, though you'll die from the process." Freed cackled.
The nun's eyes widened, "No… no, you can't! Please don't!"
"Oh, they can. And they will." Freed said, "I wanna fall asleep to your death every night."
"That's enough, Freed." The voice of Raynare made the priest pause. "Go guard the cellar gate. The rest of the rogue exorcists will be guarding the front door."
"Yeah, yeah, whatever. Just make sure you record her screams." Freed said, before walking off. Raynare rolled her eyes before approaching the crucified Asia.
"Y-You won't win! Aaron and Miyuki will make sure of it!" Asia said, trying to defy her captor.
"From what I saw, your friends were on the ground, bleeding to death. Even if they somehow manage to survive, what could they hope to accomplish?" Raynare taunted with a cruel smirk. She then walked towards her and caressed the nun's cheek, even licking it oh so slowly, as Asia whimpered. "Mhmhm, I love the taste of a virgin. I want to take your first time here."
"No, please, don't…"
"You sure? You're going to die. There's no doubt about that." Raynare said in a sultry way. "Think of it this way. When you reach eternal bliss, you will die then and won't feel a thing."
"No!" Asia said firmly.
Raynare scowled then huffed, "Whatever. It doesn't matter to me. Just know that when you die, the gift you never deserved will be in my hands… and I'll finally receive love. Either way, I'm taking what's mine."
"No… no… NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"This is the place, Master." Atalanta informed the hunter, who had followed after the Archer as best as he could. The Master stood outside of an abandoned church.
"Nice… work…" Aaron panted. "God, I'm out of shape."
"Perhaps you need rest." Atalanta suggested.
"No… we have to save Asia. Her life depends on it."
"This Asia… is she a child?"
"In my eyes, yes," Aaron replied.
"Then I will do all I can to assist in her rescue." Atalanta said firmly.
"Glad to hear it. By the way…" The hunter looked behind him to see the rest of the Gremory Peerage. "…What the hell are you guys doing following me!?"
"We're coming too, idiot." Miyuki growled, while being helped by Yuuto. "Besides, Asia is my responsibility and I need to smash my fist on that perverted rogue priest for groping me…"
"But you're still hurt." Aaron pointed out. "I can't let you come."
"Fuck that shit. I'm gonna kill that bastard and that bitch for kidnapping Asia and you're not stopping me!"
"Apparently not." Aaron mumbled. He sighed, "Fine, you can come along but the first sign of danger and you're getting benched. Got it?"
"Fine…" Miyuki huffed.
"Master." Atalanta cut in. "There are guards surrounding the abandoned church on every side. Shall I snipe them?"
"Do it. But be quick about it." Aaron said. "Don't let even one sound the alarm."
"Understood, Master." Atalanta nodded before she used her agility to jump up into a tree then took her bow and prepared to aim at the guards. She saw two guards walking side-by-side, so the green-haired cat woman took out two arrows and placed them in her bow and drew them back. She eyed them carefully, and once they were in her line of sight-
*WOOSH!*
-and the next second, both guards fell to the ground with an arrow in their heads. She then jumped to the next tree for another side of the church and pulled out another arrow and within her line of sight-
*WOOSH! THUD!*
Another guard was hit on the head before falling backwards. She repeated the process until all guards were downed. "It is done, Master."
"Nice work." Aaron complimented the Archer-class Servant. "Saber, Berserker, you two ready to go in?"
"Ready and waiting to slice that bimbo up for kicking me." Musashi said.
"Take… revenge for… Master…" Frankenstein growled.
"Have I ever told you girls how much I appreciate you?" Aaron smiled brightly as he pulled out Grail. "Now… let's give 'em hell."
Meanwhile inside the church near the front doors, two rogue exorcist guards were standing guard.
"Hey?"
…
"Yeah?"
"You ever wonder why we're here?"
"Nope. But as long as I get paid, I could care less."
"Yeah, yeah. I guess you have a point… Dick."
*KNOCK* *KNOCK*
"Pizza delivery."
The first guard looked at his cohort. "You order pizza?"
"No." The second guard shook his head.
"So why would-"
*BAM!*
The guard was interrupted when the front doors were blasted off their hinges and crushed the exorcists beneath their weight. "Knock knock, motherfuckers!" Aaron shouted. "I came here to kick ass, punish bad girls, and chew bubblegum! And I'm all out of fucking bubblegum!"
"Your entrance needs more work…" Rias sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose.
"Don't ruin this for me. I have a bucket list and making a badass entrance is one of them." The dark-haired teen said with a stoic expression.
"More inside." Koneko said abruptly. "Keep moving."
"Yeah, yeah. Buzzkills…" Aaron pouted. "Okay, Saber, Berserker, go on ahead and kick the crap out of any rogue exorcist in the way."
"You got it, Master!" Musashi blinked.
"Berserker… smash…!" Frankenstein growled before the two took off.
In the next second, there were cries of surprise then screams of pain.
"Ah, evil spirits!"
"I didn't sign up for this!"
"I taste blood!"
"Why are you hitting me with my skull?! That doesn't seem physically possible!"
"You seem to be rather enjoying this." Yuuto sweat dropped as he looked at Aaron.
The hunter looked at the Knight with a dry look, "I was shot in the shoulder and nearly bled to death. Excuse me if I'm feeling a little sadistic right now."
"Ufufufu~ careful Aaron~ don't want me on your radar." Akeno cooed.
"Hm, I somehow think it's already too late on that account." Aaron replied. Moments later, Musashi and Frankenstein came back, their job done, as evident by some blood that splattered on their clothes.
"All done, Master." Musashi grinned.
"Excellent work, girls." Aaron said as he gave both Servants some headsets. Saber and Berserker sported embarrassed blushes but the latter leaned in to get more. Rias, Miyuki, and Akeno watched this with looks of jealousy.
Yuuto decided to interject to prevent any possible arguments, "We should probably keep going."
"Oh, right." Aaron nodded. "Anyways, Rias, you and Akeno should stay here in case anyone tries to reinforce the enemy. The rest of us will continue onward."
"Be careful, Aaron." Rias said.
"Trust me. I'm not gonna die." Aaron assured.
"But didn't you almost die?" Yuuto pointed out.
"Shut up."
The hunter, his Servants, and the members of the Devil Peerage marched deeper into the church and came upon the scene of Saber and Berserker's massacre. There were countless corpses, with blood spewed and sprayed all over the church grounds, even some on the pews. Even Limbs upon limbs were left lying around.
"Overkill…" Koneko pouted.
"I know. That's how I work." Aaron remarked as he casually spun his gun in hand. "Kill it, kill it, and kill it some more."
"Okay who the fuck- ohhhh shit." A familiar voice groaned as coming from the side of the building from the shadows was Freed.
"Hey, there. Remember me, asshole?" Aaron asked with a wicked grin on his face. "Because I would really like to pay you back for that hole in my shoulder."
"Maybe I should give you another one? Might plant one right in your head." Freed smirked wickedly before his eyes landed on Miyuki. "Well, well, back for seconds?"
"I… am going to kill you and kick you in the balls so hard you'll be split in half and your skeleton will be popping out!" Miyuki threatened.
"I love it when they talk dirty." Freed snickered. "When I'm done with your boy toy and your Devil friends, I'm gonna violate you until you break."
"Well, that ain't gonna happen." Aaron said, pointing Grail at him. "Cause we're about to beat the living shit of you."
"Bring it, you shitty Devil lover!" Freed spat as he pulled out a light sword and a light gun.
Just as Aaron and his Servants were about to engage in a fight, Yuuto stepped forward along with Koneko. "Let us handle him." The Knight told the hunter.
"You sure?" The crimson-eyed teen raised a brow, pondering the blonde pretty boy's decision.
"We don't have time to waste with this madman." Yuuto stated. "You and Miyuki still have to rescue the princess from the monster in the dungeon, remember?"
Aaron stared at the Devil for a few seconds before lowering his Artificial Gear. "Fine, but don't get killed. I don't wanna have to explain to Rias that you two died at the hands of Father Anderson's bastard son."
"Believe me, we won't die." Yuuto smirked, as he drew out his sword.
"Get going." Koneko said, putting up her dukes.
"As if I'd let you shit stains escape!" Freed shouted as he went in to attack with his sword… only for Yuuto to get in his way while summoning a sword of his own that clashed with the light sword.
"Sorry, but I'm your opponent now." Yuuto apologized with his usual smile.
"Come on, Miyuki." Aaron helped the brunette girl towards the cellar door while his Servants kept an eye on Freed in case he managed to escape and attack.
"This is it…" Miyuki said.
"Yeah." He said, before aiming Grail and shot the lock clean. After that, he kicked the door open. However, what they saw shocked and horrified them both.
"Well, well, you two actually came." Raynare's voice echoed in their ears as she stood before the altar while Asia hung on it crucified but her clothes were torn. "However, you're too late."
"What did you do!?" Miyuki demanded.
The Fallen Angel smirked, "I succeeded in my mission." She brought up her right hand to reveal… a pair of golden rings that shined with an unnatural light. "Behold, the Sacred Gear: Twilight Healing."
Aaron narrowed his eyes, "A Sacred Gear with healing capabilities?" He shook his head. True healing was only through dark and sometimes inhuman means. Sacred Gears were still created by a being that lived upon the World. As such, they still follow the fundamental principles and rules enforced by the World.
"Indeed, witness its true power!" Raynare declared as she activated Twilight Healing, which engulfed her form for a second before her back… sprouted her wings, as if they had never been cut off.
Though not a proper Magus, Aaron had spent enough time with mages and the supernatural to understand the concepts of the World. When he witnessed Twilight Healing in action, he felt a shift, so to speak. Raynare wasn't just healed, the Sacred Gear she stole had managed to reverse the concept of space and time. Canceling the effect of the cut on her back that separated her wings from her flesh. Overall, she had a cheat code that prevented her from dying.
"Asia… she's…" Miyuki got out.
"So sorry, girly. But unfortunately for both of you…"
"The bitch is dead."
Aaron grimaced. He knew it was a possibility that the nun could have perished but he figured he had enough time to stop such a fate from happening. He can't even imagine how Miyuki must-
"I'M GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU!"
-be really pissed off to the point she would recklessly charge at Raynare with tears threatening to stain her pale cheeks.
"Miyuki, wait!" Aaron called out to the reincarnated Devil girl but quickly moved his body to avoid a light spear from piercing his head. "Dammit!"
It was at this moment that three new individuals arrived. All of them Fallen Angels. Two of which he recognized as Dohnaseek and Kalawarner but the last one was new to him. The Fallen Angel was a girl with blonde hair styled into twintails and blue eyes. She wore a Gothic Lolita attire, which consisted of a black Lolita dress with white frills, a large black bow on the front, and a green jewel embedded on the collar, white thigh-high socks, and black shoes. She also wore a large black bow on top of her hair.
"Oh great, a loli…" Aaron deadpanned.
"I am not a loli, you fuck-wit!" The little Fallen Angel angrily shouted.
"You have flat tits, so you're a loli."
"What!?" The girl screeched with her face red from embarrassment.
Aaron casually waved his hand to shoo the Fallen Angel away, "Go back to kindergarten and let the adults handle this. I ain't got no use in babysitting a brat."
The loli Fallen Angel gritted her teeth in sheer anger, "I'm gonna drive my spear so far up your ass, you'll look like a human shishkebab!"
…
…
Aaron looked at the adult Fallen Angels, "Does she always run her mouth like that?"
"Yes…" Dohnaseek and Kalawarner deadpanned.
"How do you live with her?"
"It is a very difficult process." Dohnaseek sighed.
"I have mad sympathy for the both of you now." Aaron replied. "Well, just for that, I'll give ya a chance."
"You really don't have to-" Kalawarner began.
"No seriously. You can back out. No drama." He offered.
"You know we can't do that, right?" Dohnaseek remarked.
"I know. Just had to ask." Aaron shrugged. "At least I offered and I won't have it haunt me for the rest of my life."
The lone male Fallen Angel raised a brow, "I feel like you want to say something else."
"Oh, right. I'm just sad I never got the chance to bang a Fallen Angel."
"What!?" The little girl exclaimed in horror.
"Get over yourself, flatty. I didn't mean you. I have standards. Plus, I like chicks with tits."
Kalawarner had the nerve to clear her throat. "Well… since you're offering…"
"Hey! Don't fraternize with the enemy!" Raynare angrily shouted.
"You're just jealous that he likes me better!" Kalawarner shot back.
"I am not!" Raynare retorted with a blush.
"RAAAAAAAAAGH!"
*WHAM!*
Raynare was suddenly sucker punched by Miyuki with a rather large haymaker to the face, sending her flying and crashing to a wall.
"Oh yeah. We're supposed to be fighting." Aaron said in realization.
"I have heard of hunters before. However, you're still human. You do not have a chance against us." Dohnaseek informed the boy as he, Kalawarner, and the girl brought up their light spears.
"I know. That's why my girls are gonna fight you instead." Aaron stated. He brought up his hand then snapped his fingers, "Oh, ladies!"
In a split second, Saber, Berserker, and Archer materialized around their Master. Expressions stern and weapons at the ready.
"You called, Master?" Saber asked with a coy smirk.
Aaron returned the smirk, "Yeah, can you girls deal with them while I help Miyuki?"
"Sure thing, boss!"
"Pay… back…" Frankenstein growled and her mace opened up.
"I will refrain from seriously injuring you, child." Atalanta told the little Fallen Angel.
"I told you I'm not a child, you old hag!"
*POP!*
"It sounds like someone needs a spanking." Atalanta said, with a twitching eye.
"Okay, I will leave you to it." Aaron said, shuffling away from Atalanta to avoid her wrath. "Uh, good luck. But you probably won't need it."
"Mittelt, why would you say that? That is not a nice thing to say to women." Dohnaseek reprimanded the loli.
"Shut up! Raynare said they're Heroic Spirits! That means they're old hags!" Mittelt shouted. The moment she said Atalanta quickly rushed over and kneed her stomach. She got the wind knocked out of her temporarily before she was prone on Atalanta's legs and suddenly lifted her skirt up to reveal the pink panties she wore before-
*WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH!*
"OW! STOP- OW! OW!" Mittelt screeched as Atalanta disciplined the small Fallen Angel.
"That's just embarrassing." Aaron said as he watched a Heroic Spirit spanking a Fallen Angel.
"I'm so sorry about this…" Kalawarner apologized with a facepalm.
"No, no. I feel like the brat needs some discipline. Atalanta is perfect for this." Aaron stated. "Besides, she likes kids… when they're disciplined."
"Hey, less talking, more fighting!" Musashi snapped.
"Oh right." Aaron said. "Fight. Have at it, girls. Just don't beat them up too bad." He said, before looking at Kalawarner. "And I'll talk with you later." He winked, before running off to help Miyuki.
"What did he mean by that?" Musashi asked Kalawarner with… a sharp gleam in her eyes.
"None of your business!" Kalawarner blushed before charging at Musashi with her Light Spear in tow.
"Hurt… you…" Berserker growled as the head of her mace sparked with electricity before she charged at Dohnaseek.
"Round 2 it is." Dohnaseek sighed, before doing the same.
Aaron managed to arrive in time to see Miyuki crashing on the ground in a bloodied heap.
"Fuck!" The brunette cursed.
"Not having a good day?" He asked.
"What do you think!?"
"Alright, sorry my bad." Aaron raised his arms in defense.
"Back for more punishment, human?" Raynare scowled as she strolled towards the duo, her injuries healing rapidly.
Aaron raised a brow, "Bitch, I know you dress like a dominatrix and everything but… you're sending mixed signals here."
"And just what the hell is that supposed to mean?!"
"Just what it sounds like." Aaron said. "I think you'd be perfect if you wore a maid dress."
"As if I'd lower myself to wear that!" Raynare screeched before sending a Light Spear towards him.
"Hm, nah. I think a maid dress works." Aaron said as he stepped to the side to avoid the spear while shooting Grail's mana bullets at the Fallen Angel. "Can already imagine you bending over, cleaning my apartment, showing off that fine booty of yours."
"Shut up, you pervert!" Raynare yelled.
"Only if you kiss me." Aaron teased.
"You're insufferable!"
"Thanks, I'll be here everyday."
"I hate you!"
"And you let your guard down." Aaron said before he brought up Grail and fired at Raynare's head.
"Ow! You son of a bitch!" Raynare growled as the bullet hole in her forehead instantly healed.
"Hey, my mom was loving! Show some respect!" Aaron said, firing another bullet at her head.
"Will you stop that!" She yelled.
"Bitch, you heal fast. Stop complaining." Aaron said as he continued to fire at her head.
"I SAID STOP IT!"
"Then stop doing this whole fiasco." Aaron said. "Besides, I know you're doing this without your boss's consent."
Raynare flinched at that.
"Oho~ what's this? A Fallen Angel having gone rogue?" Aaron smirked. "I was right on the money, wasn't I?"
"You shut up!" She snarled. "You don't know anything!"
"You're right. I don't and frankly, I don't care. I have a job to do. You're just part of the job." The hunter stated. "Though then again… I could just call your boss and they'll deal with-"
"Y-You wouldn't dare!" Raynare stuttered.
"Oh, I would. In fact, I have your boss's number on speed dial." Aaron said. "Just one press of a button and I'll-"
"Wait, stop! What do you want from me?!" Raynare begged.
"Hm, I suppose the first thing I want is for you to hand over that Sacred Gear." Aaron said.
"T-The Sacred Gear?"
"Yep. Oh, and once you hand it over, you have to let Miyuki beat the shit out of you." Aaron said. "Which by the way-" He looked over and saw the brunette girl standing there and her body started glowing an ominous red aura. "Ooooh, yeah, you're fucked…" He winced.
"Wait, what's with that aura?!" Raynare exclaimed, staring at the brunette girl.
"Hm, I think that might be the aura of a girl who is about to completely and utterly fuck your shit up."
"Wha-!" Raynare didn't get a chance to finish as Miyuki suddenly struck the Fallen Angel with a glowing red fist. A loud crack echoed, symbolizing that Raynare had received a broken jaw. Aaron looked over and saw that her red fist suddenly hardened and materialized into a red gauntlet with a green jewel and two golden spikes that manifested on the user's arm.
BOOSTED GEAR!
"Oh~ shit. Rias is not gonna believe this." Aaron blinked in surprise.
Miyuki looked at her arm in surprise, "This is… my Sacred Gear?" She said to herself, staring at the gauntlet with awe.
"Damn, Miyuki. That thing looks badass." Aaron said as he examined the Boosted Gear. "What does it do?"
"I don't know! I just got this thing!"
"Well whatever it is, keep using it. And you can beat the living shit out of Raynare until she begs for mercy."
Miyuki looked at the recovering Raynare with an evil glint in her eyes, "Oh, I plan to."
"EYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!"
Rias and Akeno turned around to the source of the noise hearing Raynare's screams of pain. This however, seemed to inadvertently arouse Akeno as she blushed. "Ara~ what a beautiful sound."
"I worry about you." Rias deadpanned. "But it sounds like Aaron and Miyuki are dealing with the Fallen Angel."
"And made quick work of her." Akeno said. "Shall we go look?"
Rias stared at her friend for a few seconds before shrugging, "Yeah, okay."
"EYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!"
"Shit… The bitch got clapped…" Freed hissed holding his gun arm that was bleeding profusely, his head also bleeding as Yuuto and Koneko weren't breaking a sweat.
"It's over. Your best option is to surrender." Yuuto told the priest.
Freed scoffed, "Like I would surrender to shitty Devils."
"Break you." Koneko said bluntly.
The mad priest smirked, "Another time, little girl. Smoke bomb!" He shouted, pulling out a small pellet then threw it to the ground, which caused a burst of smoke to erupt and blocked the Knight and Rook's vision. Yuuto waved his sword to disperse the smoke, only to find that he was nowhere to be seen.
"He's gone." Yuuto frowned.
"Coward." Koneko stated.
"I'm sure we'll see that priest again." The pretty boy told his companion with his usual smile. "I suppose we should check up on Aaron and Miyuki. And I hope we're not too late saving the nun."
"Agreed." The Rook nodded.
"EYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!"
"Sounds like your friend is having trouble." Musashi told her opponent as she slashed at the Fallen Angel. Kalawarner dodged the slash and threw another Light Spear to which Musashi swatted away.
"Tch… then I guess this is really it…" Kalawarner clicked her tongue.
"It most certainly is." The Saber-class Servant remarked.
Meanwhile…
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" Frankenstein swung her mace several times to which Dohnaseek dodged easily.
"You really must control your anger. It is improper for a young lady to constantly yell so much." Dohnaseek chastised the Berserker.
"Must… kill… you…!"
Dohnaseek sighed at this, "I truly pity you…"
As for Mittelet…
*WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH! WAPISH!*
"Pleeeeeease stooooop, I learned my lesson… I'll be a good girl…" Mittelt cried anime tears as Atalanta was still spanking her and the loli's ass was the color of cherries.
"I don't believe you." Atalanta said bluntly as she continued to spank the little Fallen Angel.
"No really… I'm sorryyyyyyyyy… just stooooop…" Mittlet sobbed as even her nose was getting runny.
"Do you mean it?" The Chaste Huntress questioned as she halted her disciplinary action.
"Yeeeeeeeees…" Mittlet sobbed. "I'm sowwy… I'm sowwyyyyy…"
"Good. Now, what do we say?" Atalanta questioned.
"Don't insult people anymore."
"Good girl." Atalanta then produced a handkerchief. "Now blow your nose."
*HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONK!*
"Holy shit. I was not expecting her to do that." Aaron admitted. Miyuki for all intents and purposes really did beat the living shit out of Raynare, despite the constant healing. Punch after punch, Miyuki wailed on her, breaking her jaw, cracking her nose, poking her eyes, ripping off her ears, anything to make her life a living hell as long as the Twilight Healing kept healing Raynare's injuries.
Speaking of the Pawn, she was huffing and puffing while straddling a beaten down Raynare, who was sporting multiple bruises that were slowly healing due to the stolen Sacred Gear.
"You done?" He asked her.
"Yeah… I'm done…" Miyuki muttered, slowly standing up and walking away. "I'm getting Asia off that cross…"
"Alright. I'll handle Raynare." The hunter told her as he approached the semi-conscious Fallen Angel. "I'll take that." He swipes Twilight Healing out of Raynare's hand.
"Why…?"
"Hm?"
"What is it with you humans? You're the lowest of the low and yet…" Raynare got out. "How the hell are you this strong?"
Aaron stared down at the Fallen Angel. "You really want to know? Simple, because we're a tenacious species. When the going gets tough, we rise to the challenge. It's why the Throne of Heroes exists. It's why there are people who are surprisingly strong. And it's also why you got your ass kicked."
"Che…"
"You and the Devils are a lot more alike than you think. You're too prideful to admit your own limits and failures as creatures of God. That's why you're cast down from Heaven. So that you would learn from your mistakes, see the errors of your ways. And also show you the consequences of the choices you make from your own free will."
"Free will… It always comes down to that…" Raynare frowned. "It's because of free will that we're like this…"
"Curse me all you like. It's what all you supernatural people do. Blame humans for all your troubles. It's so easy. Frankly, I don't care. I have a job and I'm getting paid a shit ton of money." Aaron remarked. "That being said…" He then turned her around so that she was prone and placed cuffs on her wrists, her arms behind her back. "You're under arrest."
Rias and Akeno met up with Yuuto and Koneko then descended into the cellar until they came across Aaron's Servants who were holding the other three Fallen Angels captive.
"Ara, you captured instead of killing them?" Akeno blinked.
"Yeah. We already had our share of killing those guards." Musashi shrugged.
"Where's Aaron and Miyuki?"
"Inside." Atalanta said, pointing to the door.
Rias glared at the captive Fallen Angels, "I'll deal with you three later." She said before storming towards the door. However, when the door opened, she was surprised to see Miyuki standing there, her head down as the bangs covered her eyes, tears going down as she carried a deceased Asia in her arms.
Aaron followed after her with Raynare in front but her arms bound behind her back. "We were too late." He told her.
"I see…" Rias frowned sadly.
"Please… save Asia…" Miyuki sobbed looking at Rias with pleading eyes. "I beg you… use one of those Evil Pieces to save her! Please!"
"Miyuki!" Aaron shouted at the Pawn. "Think about this!"
"What's there to think about?! I want my friend back! I promised her that I would protect her!"
"If you make this decision for her, you're no better than every other supernatural being that enforces their will on others."
"I DON'T CARE!" Miyuki screeched.
Aaron narrowed his eyes, "You know what. Fine, do what you want. But I think the process would go by faster if you had these." He said, tossing over Twilight Healing as the small rings fell to the floor.
"That's-" Rias got out.
"Asia's Sacred Gear. Twilight Healing. Basically reverses the laws of nature itself." Aaron said. "So yeah, do what you will. I'm taking these four Fallen Angels into custody and getting my pay." He then moved Raynare along, with the Servants following, their captives in tow.
"Hold on! This is my territory so I have to-"
"I'm sorry, did you just claim this town as yours?" Aaron interjected as he glanced back at Rias with a cold stare. "Human lands don't belong to anyone but humans. And don't forget, at the end of a day, I'm a mercenary." And with that, he left without another word.
Later on…
"It's me. I recovered the targets." Aaron called his contact. "Yep. All intact. Ready for pickup."
…
"Yep, and I expect my money to be transferred into my account. Especially after all the shit one of your subordinates caused me."
…
"Wait, what? You want me to- seriously?" Aaron's eyes almost bugged out.
…
"Two of them, I have no problem with. It's the other two that will cost you extra."
…
"Fine. Just so you know, I'm only doing this because I need a maid."
*CLICK!*
He turned his attention to the four Fallen Angels. "Alright, so it turns out I'm only sending two of you to my client."
Dohnaseek raised a brow, "And who is your client?"
"You'll know them soon enough. But speaking of which, you and the brat are the ones that are going." Aaron stated.
"I… understand." Mittlet said quietly.
"Wow… Archer disciplined you well." Aaron said in a bit of surprise. He then looked to Raynare and Kalawarner. "As for you ladies, it's your lucky day. Raynare gets to be my maid and you Kalawarner will get to be bed buddies with me."
"I feel like that last part was more for you." Kalawarner pointed out.
"I will neither confirm nor deny that."
"Do I really have a choice at this point?" Raynare sighed.
"Hey, at least you get to live. So no complaining." Aaron said. "Also, I'm going to have to get you a new outfit. One perfectly suited for your new job as a maid."
"This is the worst day of my life…"
"Yep! That's life for ya, bitch! Get used to it!"
"And what about me?" Kalawarner asked.
"It's all-naturalle for you." Aaron smirked. "Gotta say, I am excited for that."
"You're such a pervert." Raynare scowled.
"And sort of proud of it too. Strangely enough, this isn't the first time this has happened. Screwing a hot piece of supernatural ass, I mean."
"Wha-"
"Well, well… I think this is going to be the start of a beautiful friendship full of benefits." Kalawarner licked her lips seductively. "Hope you can handle me, sugah."
Aaron smirked, "Lady, I once screwed a fairy, a Dead Apostle, and a dragon in human form. All at once. You should be hoping you can handle me."
"Ugh… gag me." Raynare rolled her eyes.
This turned out to be one hell of a night.
A/N: And scene. With that, the Asia arc is over. The next arc will feature the appearance of certain Nasuverse characters who aren't from Fate. I'll give ya a hint: They just had a remake.
In any case, I've been getting a lot of PMs and guest reviews (sometimes on other stories too) asking me to update my Fate Dissidia Order story. I wanna say that I'm almost done, but I'm not. All I can say is, be patient and I'll have it out as quick as I can.
That being said, the next arc is completely original and definitely gonna happen before the whole Riser arc. This will also feature Aaron's past and his reason for being a hunter. So, expect a lot of emotional and possible mental scars.
Review and comment on this chapter. Love it, hate it, but just know that you've read it.
Peace out, everyone!
