Chapter 13 the flames of the Phoenix
Yu some how still managed to get up early for school after what happened last night. When he was on his way to school he coincidently ran into issei whose also on his way to school.
Yu: ...uhhhhh...hey issei
Issei: ...hey...senpai
Yu: *sighs* ok just throwing this our there we know already right?
Issei: yeaaaa I mean just... was she really being serious man? I mean...both of us?
Yu: yeaaa its uhhh definitely weird but uhhhhh
Issei: but you said no im sure
Yu: ...
Issei looks at Yu confused
Issei: you said no right?
Yu: ...i...
Issei now looks at Yu surprised
Issei: ...YOU SAID YES!?
Yu: NO...well...not ...exactly... Anyway your no different at least I actually said something
Issei: what? Wait no I was gonna say something but my mom walked in on us and...
Yu: and?
Issei: and...some other things happened that kind of took chance to explain
Yu: other things?
Issei: *sighs* look I didn't mean to say nothing to her i...I really do care about her like alot and there are feelings that I do have for her but I mean dude isn't she a priest and she's...she's just so...
Yu: *sighs* yea I know and also im guessing she's starting to discard some of her teachings from the church mostly because it nearly killed her...twice
Issei: yea good point *sighs* man what are we gonna do? I mean...
Yu: look there is one thing we can agree on we both care very deeply about Asia to the point where were we have some strong feelings for her so let's just-
Asia: you do?
Both Yu and issei quickly turn in shock to see Asia just a few feet away
Yu: ASIA!
Issei: ASIA!
Asia: is...is it true? You...feel the same issei?
Issei looks Yu to know what he should do. But all Yu did was shrug basically saying he doesn't know
Issei: *sighs* Asia...yes I do in some way im sorry say anything before its just-
But before issei could finish Asia already at the two boys and hugged them both tightly with tears in her eyes and a huge smile on her face
Asia: ...ohh...you two...I was so scared that both of you were going reject me*sniff* but...you both...love me to!
Issei: w-wait Asia we didn't-
Before issei could finish Yu looked at him in a way that told to shush
Asia: *sniff* thank you...thank you both I swear ill do anything and everything to make you both happy I don't even mind being shared Between you two
Both Yu and issei blush at that
Asia: *gasp* oh we're going to be late if we don't go now come on!
With that Asia rushes ahead leaving Yu and issei behind. Yu and issei just stand there dumb founded
Issei... dude...what just happened?
Yu: I think we're both dating Asia now
Issei: WHAT!? Dude are you really ok with this?
Yu: *sighs* look we'll talk more about this later right now we really do need to head to school
Issei: *sighs* yea your right lets go
And with that they start walking towards school
Yu: oh yea issei you were saying about other things?
Issei: huh? Oh yea uhhhhh well...
And so issei told Yu what happened after...well..isseis side of the confession. After it happened issei went to his room to try and calm himself down. After a couple of moments rias teleported in isseis room demanding him to literally TAKE HER VERGINITY...him...yea I mean issei ...I know super weird. Anyway before anything could happen some really hot and emotionally cold woman/devil Named Grayfia came in and interrupted them by also teleporting in. During rias's and Grayfia's argument issei herd something about rias Haveing an older brother named sir zechs that also happens to be grayfia's master. Rias then said her good byes to issei and teleported away with grayfia.
Yu: hmmm interesting so rias has an older brother
Issei: yea it kinda came as a surprise to me to
Yu: and this grayfia you said she serves under him?
Issei: yea why?
Yu: well its just odd if this sir zechs guy wanted to see his sister why would he send his servant or possibly someone from his peerage to talk to her...unless its something she wouldn't want to hear from him
Issei: huh? what does that mean?
Yu: im just theorizing ill probably get more answers if rias is willing to give them
Issei: and how hopeful are you that's gonna happen?
Yu: no very but im still try
Issei: *sighs* if you say so senpai
They soon catch up to Asia and all three of them started walking to school. While they were walking Yu managed to save issei yet again by catching a punch from one of isseis friends just before it hit. They were screaming angrily about how they were tricked into going to some guys place that likes to cosplay as a princess. *chuckles* hey my dude its your fault for falling for that. Anyway after some stern taking to from Yu they both ran off yelling they'll get him for it. When Yu asked how he knew the said guy all he said was...
Issei: I really don't want to talk about it
Well anyway they were able to get to school on time and it was pretty just as uneventful as yesterday. After school Yu Asia and issei all met back up with each other and eventually met up with kiba and decided to head to the club room. Issei decided to talk about what happened to kiba... While leaving out that he almost got laid.
Kiba: hmmm yea you guys might be right I think something is bugging her hmmm but if I had to guess its probably more house Gremory drama
Yu: are you so sure about that?
Issei: yea because she was kinda like this during my training to...you think akeno might know what's going on?
Kiba: well she is her right hand lady so if anyone would its her
And then he suddenly stops and then looks down in anger and irritation almost as if he realized something
Yu: kiba? What's wrong?
Kiba: grrrr well there is something I do know that would upset her and if my hunch is correct then you guys are not gonna like it as much as I do
Yu issei and Asia look at each other in confusion. They all soon walk into the Club room to see everyone there including one person. A woman wearing some kind of maid outfit with long silver hair put into four breads with bigger ones being at the back. She had Ocean blue eyes and very large breasts almost as big as rias... Almost. As soon as she herd the door open she turns to look at Yu and the others with the same cold emotionless expression. Asia immediately hid behind her two protec-...or should I now say lovers? You know what doesn't she hid behind Yu and issei
Mysterious woman: oh you've finally arrived
Issei: whoa wait a second its you again
Yu: huh?
Issei: senpai its her from last night
Mysterious woman: oh yes I remember you lowborn human how ever I don't think I know you two
She gestures to Yu and Asia
Rias gets up from her desk
Rias: they are also not only friends but valued members of my club and ill ask you again please don't call one of my friends a lowborn again it doesn't matter if they're human
The Mysterious woman looks at rias for a few seconds then bows her head
Mysterious woman: you're right my apologies since he is a human that possess the boosted gear ill respect your wishes
Rias: thank you
The mysterious woman then turns to look at Yu and Asia again
Mysterious woman: allow me to properly introduce myself greetings my name is Grayfia and I also serve under the house Gremory
Yu: im Yu narukami
Asia reluctantly comes out of her hiding spot to greet her
Asia: i-im... Im a-asia argento
Grayfia: a pleasure to meet you all now forgive me for being blunt but I assume that the fact that she's considers you three humans as friends and that she's will for to stay in her club is because you all have something valuable and special to her
Yu: uhhhhh well I guess-
Grayfia: and your still human and not ?
Rias: *sighs* because it was there choice grayfia
Grayfia looks back at rias confused
Grayfia: ...they're...choice? *sighs* oh rias you still in that freedom to join mentality *sighs* I swear the humans and their ideals must have corrupted you some how
Yu: uhhhhh what's that supposed to mean?
Rias: *sighs* don't mind her Yu she's one of those Devils that are more willing to obey to the rules of the under word instead trying to adapt to the human world
Grayfia: be that as it may it still don't change that that you have fewer pieces then most upper Devils through out the whole underworld I mean you brother had already had a full set when he was about your age
Rias: ugh I really wish everyone would stop comparing me to him
Yu issei and Asia looked at each other awkwardly and began to back out
Issei: uhhhhh should we go this looks like a-
Rias: No! No wait its alright you can stay right grayfia?
Grayfia: ...*sighs heavily* if that is what you you wish yes you can
Yu: ok so what did you need us for again
Grayfia: I was just about to tell lady rias more about her current situation with-
Then out of nowhere a magic in a deep shade of orange appeared. It then emitted a large plum of fire that Yu and the others had to walk back further from it to avoid getting burned
Grayfia: ahh speak of the literal devil
Asia still held close and tight between yu and issei still wanting them to protect her. When the fire died down a man was now standing where it was completely unharmed with his back turn to everyone. The man had yellow blonde hair a red fancy jacket to go along with his red fancy pants and shoes. In an almost... scumbag and douchey kind of way he spoke
Douchey male: ahhhhhh and riser arrives in the human world
Ooookayyyyy did I say almost? I meant in a complete scumbag and douchey way. I mean who else talks about themselves in a third person? Anyway He turns around and Yu can see that his eyes are lazily opened and his jacket and shirt were opened to his chest. He looks straight a rias and has a really... Uncomfortable smirk on his face
Riser: hmhmhm I've come all this way to see you my beloved rias
Yu: *inner speech* huh? Beloved... Wait does that mean...
Issei: ugh ok who is this asshole?
Grayfia: this gentleman is Lord riser Phoenix
Yu: *inner speech* what!? Phoenix?
Grayfia: he is a pureblooded devil of noble birth third heir in line to the house of Phoenix
Phoenix: BLASFEMUS THEY DARE USE MY NAME!?
As you can tell Phoenix wasn't so happy Haveing his name used for a devil House
Issei: ok and that means what?
Grayfia looks down
Grayfia: He is also the fiance to the next head of the house of Gremory
Yu: sighs *inner speech* I knew it...rias...
Issei: fian- what!? Your joking right?
Grayfia: I am not lady rias has been engaged to lord riser for some time now
Issei: w-wait seriously!? They're going to be married!?
Yu: *inner speech* how did I not see this sooner it should have been obvious!
Riser: *sighs* I think riser will sit on this nice couch here
He walks over to one of the couches and sits. He then smugingly looks at rias
Riser: riser would love for his betrothed to sit with him
Rias: im fine where i-
Grayfia: AHEM!
Rias growls and very reluctantly sits next to riser
Riser: mmmm that's more like it
Riser then looks over to akeno
Riser: hmmmm riser could also go for some tea if you don't mind little girl
Akeno: ...*inner speech* did this smug ass mother fucker just call me little girl!?
Akeno: *chuckles* im sorry but we seem-
Grayfia: AHEM!
Akeno: ...*sigh* right away lord riser
Saying that nearly made her want to throw up. Still she reluctantly got riser his tea
Riser: *slurps* mmmmm lovely the tea made by rias's queen is most delicious
He says while fondling rias's hair which neither Yu or anyone else was likeing very much especially akeno
Akeno: thank you for the compliment sir *inner speech* disgusting pig!
Issei: *inner speech* ugh what a fucking asshole! There's no way rias would marry someone like him! Right?
Riser...*gags* ugh riser then began to...ugh why this guy? He starts to touch and rub all over rias her hair her thighs her...*gags* ugh what a disgusting perv and he does it while having that smug creepy smile on his face and I thought issei was bad
Rias finally had enough and pushed riser away and stood up
Rias: that's enough riser just let it go already why don't you understand? I have no intention of marrying you
Riser: oh but my darling riser believes your families circumstances are still so severe that you can't afford to be selfish
Rias: I will not bring my family to ruin. I have no intention of denying your right to our family name
Riser: *chuckles* well alright then let's-
Rias: however let me be clear my husband will be my choice
Riser now starts to look a little irritated
Riser: *sighs* remember its imperative for Devils to remain pureblooded
Yu: *inner speech* tch says who? God?
Riser: as you already know we're still recovering our numbers from the last war. Your father and sir zechs decided on this arrangement with the future of devil in mind
Yu: *inner speech* so!? Just because a war happened doesn't give you the right to take away her freedom cause of it! it wasn't her fault!
Rias: grrrr my father, my brother, and my whole clan made this decision because they are in too great a rush For the final time riser
She looks at riser dead in the eyes
Rias: I will not marry you!
Riser then quickly gets up and grabs rias by the chin forcing her to look up at him and he spoke in an irritated growl
Riser: and for the final time RIAS riser bears the reputation of the house of Phoenix
He grabs her chin more tightly and pulls her face closer to his
Riser: Besmirching our good name is unacceptable!
Yu and everyone else not got really angry but also on guard
Issei: HEY!
Riser: riser doesn't care if he has to incinerate everyone in this room
He then begins to show off his firey aura
Riser: you are returning to the underworld with me
That's when rias starts to show her own destructive aura and before she could say anything someone else already did
Yu: grrrrrr like Hell shes going anywhere with you!
Everyone was Caught off guard and surprised by how loud and rough yu yelled
Issei: ...s-senpai?
Yu: you...you seriously think you can just come in here and tell us what we should do just because you think you're goddanm big shot!? To Hell with that! And to Hell with you! She's not going anywhere with you not if I have something to say about it!
And a light blue aura begins to erupted around Yu
Rias: ...y-yu...
Issei: danm...badass senpai
Riser then let's go of rias and starts to chuckle
Riser: *chuckles* HAHAHAHA you? A lowly human? Ha you really think you can pose any kind of threat to riser Phoenix?
Phoenix: grrrrrr
You: ...! Hmmmm you know I've some actual Phoenix's and let me tell you they hold much more power and wisdom then you ever could comparing your to them is a major insult of their name
Riser: ...! Why you...how dare you insult-
Yu: if you want to see a real Phoenix take a good look PERSONA!
Yu holds out his hand and tarot card of the sun descended appon it. He immediately crushed it and from behind emerged a large red bird with a body made of fire( just to clarify I know that Phoenix doesn't have a body of fire he's just continuously casting agi on himself to look like it). When Phoenix fully emerged he looks at riser dead in the eyes full of anger and hate
Phoenix: you think yourself a Phoenix DEVIL? You are wrong I am a true Phoenix!
He makes his fire hotter and brighter
Issei: *whispers* whao awesome
Grayfia: hmmmm interesting he seems to have tamed a Phoenix and made it his
Riser: th-thats... That's impossible no mere human can tame a Phoenix riser won't believe it!
Phoenix: what should be impossible is you devil using my kinds name as if you're worthy to have it. You're not worthy of anything!
Riser: ...what!?
Phoenix: hmph to think that one of my kind was foolish enough to mate with yours. You are nothing but an abomination in my eyes!
Riser got really pissed at that last comment so he summons a fire ball in each hand
Riser: ...riser...will reduce you and that insulant human to mere ashes!
Phoenix: do not pretend you are a match for me Devil!
And just as they were about to go at it a sudden chill filled the air. It put out the that both riser and Phoenix were making. Phoenix then dropped down on the floor groaning in pain just like riser and Yu
Issei: whoa senpai? What the hell's going on?
Grayfia: im doing what im here for. To make sure there's no disruption of peace
Yu was still on his knees groaning in pain
Issei: Alright! Fine danm it then cut it out already they stopped
Grayfia: not until they say it themselves
Issei: are you kidding me!?
Riser: *groans* ...r...Riser will stop you have my word
Grayfia: hmph good and you human?
Yu: *groans* alright alright ill stop
Grayfia: hmph that didn't sound very sincere
Yu and Phoenix were now feeling alot more pain to the point where they both screamed
Phoenix: AHHHHHHHH
Yu: AHHHHHHHH
Issei: Yu senpai!
Asia: Yu!
Rias: grayfia that's enough stop this at once!
Grayfia: he needs to learn his place when amongst higher Devils
Yu: *groans* oh I need to learn my place huh? we'll see about that CHANGE KING FROST
Phoenix disappears and emerging from where he was is the giant white mechanical ice Emperor himself. With king frost now summoned Yu instantly Felt a lot better. He calmly gets up and dusts himself off
Yu: do you're thing king frost
King frost: right hee ho master
King frost lifts his staff up high and begins to absorbed all the ice and chillness in the air until there's none left. Yu looks over to see everyone's shocked expressions especially grayfia's
Grayfia: ….i…..you just…..how…..
Yu: your not only one with mastery over ice and the cold if you want to test that you can be my guess and try
Grayfia really don't know what's happening right now this human summoned some giant white creature and it just matched her ice powers? …..what was this human?
Grayfia: …..no there's no need just….please keep the peace
Yu decided to desummon King frost after that
Yu: fine but no promises
Riser then gets up still having an irritated look on his face
Riser: hmph you think just cause you can summon some bird or a giant snow man that riser will just give in? Think again!
Riser holds his had out towards a floor in the room and the same orange magic circle appeared. It also emitted a large flame and emerging from it was a large group of…of girls?
Riser: *chuckles* as you can see riser has 15 pieces a full set and yet my poor naïve bride still only has 3 how tragic
Issei: hey bird brain! You forgot about us! Me senpai and Asia!
Riser: Oh really? *laughs* your just mere humans just cause you were to her…little hide out don't mean you can handle matters like us Devils
Issei: huh? What Hell is he talking about?
Grayfia: should lady rias still insist on putting her own personal preferences above those of her family then she is to settle it VIA a rating game with lord riser.
Issei: a rating game…wait senpai!
Yu: yea I remember Sona was also talking about a rating game
Kiba: it's a game noble Devils play with each other long story short they and their servants compete in battle to determine who wins
Yu: like a chess game
Akeno: exactly it's the reason why we have individual powers that are inspired by what we call evil pieces. And in order to play the rating game
Issei: ok so what does that mean for rias?
Akeno: …*sighs*
Issei: huh?
Riser: *chuckles* riser has played through many rating games and has scored several wins for himself
Yu: *sighs* in other words he not only experienced he's practically an expert
Issei: ….oh….great….
Riser: *chuckles* that's right human And obviously my inexperienced bride has never qualified for an official game *chuckles* and do you know that means human?
Yu: grrrrr
Riser: its means neither you or my lovely rias can have a say in what ever happens it means in the end rias will always belong to riser *laughs evily*
Rias tilts her head down in defeat
Riser: so what will you do now human? Still willing to go against me knowing I have a full set backing me?
Yu took a moment to look that the large group of girls behind riser. They not only out number him but they're really strong as well if they were shadows they would be considered red shadows
Yu: *inner speech* grrrr danm ill not only be out numbered but also out match…I….I don't think I can…
Issei: tch so what if practically have an army backing you!?
Yu: huh? Issei?
Issei: me and senpai have fought small armies before, yours is no different
Riser: ha really?
Issei then summons his boosted gear
Issei: danm straight! Senpai has never lost to anyone before and he sure as Hell won't lose to some punk ass like you!
Yu: ….issei….
Issei: screw this! We don't need to play some rating game we'll beat your ass right here and now!
And issei runs straight towards riser ready to punch him right in the face
Asia: wait issei no!
Riser: hmph pathetic MIRA!
At that call a blue haired small girl in a Japanese style dress and bow staff dashed and jumped from within the large and charges towards issei ready to hit him
Yu: not a chance! IZANAGI!
Yu quickly summons his initial persona and commands him to quickly deflect and push her back with his own attack. The blue haired girl tried to block him but izanagi still managed to send her flying to a wall hard
Riser: …..what…but how-
Issei: EAT THIS SHIT HEAD!
Riser momentarily distracted didn't see isseis first hit directly on the side of his face knocking him down and sent sliding across the floor. Issei then quickly gets in front of rias to protect her
Issei: like my senpai said like Hell rias is going anywhere with you! The only way she is is over my cold dead body you bird brained basterd!
Rias: ….issei…..
Riser was holding his jaw in complete irritation and anger
Riser: grrrrrr as you wish YOU LITTLE BRAT!
Riser then quickly conjures a fire ball and throws it at issei
Yu: I don't think so!
Before the fire ball hit issei yu managed to deflect it with his sword
Issei: danm thanks for the save senpai
Yu: no problem
Then a blonde haired little girl within the large group called out to them. She had big blue eyes and had the same yellow blonde hair as riser that's been put in twisted twin pigtails, she's in a pink and white dress and maybe has sharp teeth? Kind of hard to tell
Blonde haired girl: hey get away from my brother you humans!
The blonde girl and the others was about to attack but four other people stood in their way
Kiba: don't forget about us!
Akeno: I've been wanting to do this for a very long time
Koneko: hmm
Asia: i…I won't let you harm either issei or yu!
Kiba held his sword ready to fight, Akeno had a spell at the ready, Koneko held up her fists, and Asia had her sacred gear out and ready
Everyone remained still waiting for someone anyone to make a move.
Yu: hmph well looks were in a stall mate
Riser: so it seems
Yu: hmmmm how about this? We can take this outside where we can use our full strength cause I've already damaged enough of rias's stuff
Riser: *chuckles* interesting proposal human riser is not opposed to it but…
Riser looks over to Grayfia to see what she says. She looks down for a few seconds but then looks up
Grayfia: this decision should ultimately be up to lady rias
Rias: ….huh? Me?
Yu: she's right rias this is about your life and what you want we can fully just do this somewhere open or you can do the rating game if you wish whatever you do ill support it
Rias: …..yu…...
Rias looks down deep in thought. She won't lie just fighting riser somewhere open is tempting she'll have Asia, issei, and Yu backing her…..but that would also run the risk of not just them but her whole peerage dyeing. Riser is a selfish, self absorbed, asshole that cares little about anyone if they were in a full on fight riser would take the opportunity to kill them all and even if he does there won't be any consciousness for him not even if she begged and pleaded for he brother to do something...and…..even the thought of all her friends dying….It…..its to much to bare. So there's only one right choice here.
Rias: …Grayfia tell my brother I agree to the rating game
Issei: wait! WHAT!?
Yu: *sighs* yea I figured say that
Grayfia: As you wish lady rias I will inform him immediately
And Grayfia uses a teleportation spell and teleports out of there
Riser: hahaha well then riser shall see you again on the battle field my darling
And riser walks over to the group of girls
Riser: oh but before riser leaves he would like to show rias something
Rias: ughhh what now?
Riser: Yubelluna!
He calls over one of the girls within the group. A really beautiful woman much taller then most of the other girls. She had long shiny purple hair, a Blue, white and purple dress that completely exposes her huge cleavage, a golden metal choker with two red gems and one blue one, she also has two silver necklaces and black colored head gear with a triangle shaped gem in the middle.
When Yubelluna got to riser he immediately started kissing her and she kissed him back. The shock and disgust on rias's face could be see through outer space the other were shocked seeing what riser was doing to.
Yu: ….w-what the hell!?
Issei: danm is he for real!?
After a second or two they stop and riser immediately starts fondling yubelluna's tits and hair…..yea he's definitely a lustful pervert
Riser: there will always be a special space in risers bed for you my lovely rias riser looks forward to having you finally in it until then *laughs evily*
And in a massive blaze riser and her peerage disappears with risers laugh still echoing for a second or two
Issei: grrrrrrr I hate that smug son of a-
Yu: yea you and me both
Kiba: not just you we hate him
Koneko: I might actually hate him more then I hate issei
Issei: hey!
Rias: keep it cause were gonna need to fuel us during the rating game *sighs heavily* even though I don't really like our chances with winning especially since I cant have yu, asia, or issei join me
Issei: what? Why not?
Akeno: rating games are for Devils only it doesn't matter how close you are to said devil if you're anything other that you can't compete
Issei: what!? Are you kidding me?
Asia: i-isnt there a way make us Devils temporarily?
Rias: *sighs* unfortunately no there have been attempts of course but they've all been failed attempts
Issei: grrrrrrr danm it and I really wanted to give another good one
Yu: …..well that's not gonna
Yu turns to everyone with determination on his face
Rias: huh? What do you mean?
Yu: look I don't know much about this rating game business but I do know a thing or two about knowing how to win a fight so you know what? I'm gonna train you me and my personas
Everyone looks at you with shocked expression
Rias: you and your personas are gonna train us?
Kiba: didn't you ask me to train you a while ago?
Yu: this is different *sighs* look during my adventure in Inaba I will there were times were my and my friends had a little fun going inside the tv to rescue someone but overall we took what we were doing seriously you know why?
Everyone shook there heads no
Yu: because in that world victory meant everything every battle every challenge no matter how hard or tough we knew that we would always have to come out on top cause we knew if we lost just once we were never gonna come back
Issei: …..danm senpai….. that's so badass
Asia: wait so even if you were out numbered or over powered you never ran from a fight ever?
Yu: we have once or twice but overall there are just battles we couldn't run from….literally.
Rias: hmmmm ok then narukami I trust that you'll know what to do
Akeno: yea show me what you under there *giggles*
Kiba: i'm willing to learn something new if it gets me stronger
Koneko: hm i'm in your hands senpai
Yu looks at rias and her peerage and he could see the fire and determination in there faces it honestly reminds him of his friends when ever they go in and save someone
Yu: *chuckles* ok
He hold his sword to his side
Yu: lets get started
