Hey this is my first fanfic so hope you enjoy!
After a few weeks later Issei seems to be fitting in well as a devil. He now has a few of his own clients that he visits when they call on him. When Wendy and Koneko went to the ORC building for the day they heard Rias lecturing Issei about how he should not go near the church. Apparently Issei befriended a nun and showed her the way to the church as she was new to the area. Rias did not want a conflict with the angels and did not want her pawn to die due to him trespassing on their territory.
After that conversation everyone continued their afternoon as usual. Later that night Rias is informed of a stray devil that the team must eliminate. Wendy joins the team on this mission as she normally does.
The team makes it to an old and abandoned warehouse where they split in groups to search with strict orders to contact the others when they find the stray. Wendy goes with Rias and Koneko while Kiba Issei and Akeno forms a squad. As they search Wendy hears what sound like an animal eating something and they find the stray devouring an animal carcass.
When Akeno and her group arrived at the scene Rias takes the chance to explain the Evil Piece system to Issei and explains each person's chess rank and abilities.
When the team confronts the stray, Issei is distracted by the strays' female upper body that sat on a centaur like lower body. This caused the stray to get a surprise hit on him sending him flying.
Koneko rushed forward and used her strength to the stray flying through the wall with a hard punch. Her attack was followed up by Kiba using a sword he created with his sacred gear Sword Birth. He cut the strays arms off resulting in a pained screech from the stray. Before the stray could retaliate Akeno sent a lightning attack at it paralyzing it. The stray unable to fight back or run away requested Rias to kill her. Rias complied with the strays' last request.
After the stray was dealt with Wendy went to heal Issei of his injuries. After he was fixed up she went and checked everyone else.
A few days later as Issei went to another mission to get a contract. Wendy who stayed with everyone else at the ORC building saw Rias looked nervous and uncomfortable.
"Are you worrying about the mission Issei went on?" Wendy asked Rias
"I just have a bad feeling about it. I can't explain really it but I think something is up" Rias said in a defeated tone.
"Why don't we go check up on him then?" Wendy asked in a caring tone.
This caused Rias to get a small smile. She agreed to the idea and everyone followed her to go see how the newest member of the peerage is dong on the mission.
When they arrived at the house where Issei should be they were shocked to see the door broken open and a battle raging on inside.
The group rushes in to aid Issei in the conflict. Inside they see what appears to be the mutilated body of the potential client, a young girl with long blonde hair and green eyes, dressed in a nun outfit slumped against the wall, and Issei fighting young man with short white hair and red eyes dressed in clerical clothing. Kiba rushes to aid Issei in the fight while Koneko and Akeno go to provide support, Wendy rushes to the nun girl and start heling her wounds.
The unknown man lets out a deranged laugh when the devils arrived.
"So you called for reinforcements you filthy devil scum? No matter, I the great exorcist Freed Sellzen will kill you all" he rants all while laughing like a mad man.
Rias unsure how powerful this foe is and sensing potential allies to this Freed person approaching calls for her peerage to retreat.
"Buchou, please we have to take Asia with us" Issei pleads gesturing towards the nun girl who does not look injured anymore thanks to Wendy's efforts.
"I'm sorry Issei but unfortunately only members of the Gremory clan can be teleported with this magic circle we have to leave her" Rias says with a little bit of regret in her voice because of the look of sadness on Issei face.
They teleport away before more can be said on the matter.
For the next few days Issei dives into training to get stronger so that he can rescue Asia despite Rias' attempts to prohibit him from getting involved.
While Issei busies himself with training Rias gets worried about his safety.
"Are you ok Rias?" Wendy asked with concern etched in her voice.
"It's just Issei is so fixated on this Asia girl and I'm afraid that he will get hurt if he continues to try and save her. You know how dangerous it is to fight exorcists, and he does not have any real combat experience" a defeated Rias replied.
"I will not solve anything to just sit and worry. We already know he will not easily be swayed from his current path so why not help him along instead of hindering him at every corner?" Wendy gently asked.
"But how do I do it? I can't strait up go and train him because if he gets into trouble with the other factions it will reflect badly on our family and might spark another conflict" Rias stated.
"Well what if say, Kiba perhaps went and spared with Issei, it's just something boys do right?" Wendy replies with a smirk.
Rias' eyes light up a little at the clever idea Wendy just suggested. "Since when did you get so smart?" Rias playfully asks.
"Go ask Kiba for the favour so that you can stop worrying about Issei and go on with your work" said Wendy waving Rias in Kiba's direction.
Wendy looks on as Rias talks to Kiba and it seems like he agrees, Rias the returns to where Wendy is sitting and gives her a quick hug, "Thank you sis" Rias says with a smile present on her face.
"Any time" came the reply form a smiling Wendy.
Some days later Kiba came running into the ORC building calling for help.
"Rias, Akeno, anyone com quick please Issei is in trouble!" Kiba shouts in panic.
Rias rushes to Kiba who is out of breath, "Where is he, take us there now" she says in a worried voice.
"At the park" was Kiba's out of breath reply.
Rias, Akeno, Wendy and Koneko followed Kiba to where Issei was.
When they arrived they saw Issei on the ground beaten up and the retreating figures of Asia and some other person who they could not identify.
Rias and Wendy rushes to Issei. Wendy immediately starts healing his injuries while Rias asks him what happened in a worried ton.
"I came to train here and would have met up with Kiba later… but bumped into Asia and spent the day with her… when we came here again just before I would have started training with Kiba… The fallen angel that killed me before you reincarnated me as a devil… came and wanted to take Asia away… I tried to fight her off but it didn't go all that great" was the pained response from Issei as he recovered with the help of Wendy's healing magic.
"Raynare" Rias said under her breath with venom in her voice as she remembered the events that happened when she made Issei her pawn.
"We will get her back Issei" Rias said loud enough for everyone to hear, "That fallen angel will rue the day she messed with my peerage."
Back at the ORC building Rias tells Issei that as a pawn he can rank up to any other piece except for King, and gain that pieces abilities in battle. They all prepare for the coming conflict with Kiba and Issei training hard, while Koneko and Akeno looks for any clues on where the Fallen Angel might have taken Asia.
The next day they all come together by Rias' orders.
"They have taken her to the church and are holding her hostage. So the plan is for Issei with Kiba and Koneko to storm the church and confront Raynare while Akeno and I will deal with the other Fallen Angels. Wendy you provide support where needed please but stay out of the fight, you don't know offensive spells and I don't want you to get hurt" Rias told the group the plan as they prepared to teleport to the churches location.
As the group arrives at the church Issei, Kiba and Koneko run into the church while Rias, Akeno and Wendy moves towards the woods where Rias sensed some Fallen Angels. When Rias and her group reached a clearing in the forest they saw three Fallen Angels waiting for them.
"Wendy we will not need your help here with this trash, please go and assist Issei and the others" Rias said in an emotionless voice.
With that Wendy dashed off towards the church. When she arrives Issei is about to go up against Raynare once again with Koneko and Kiba dealing with the rest of the cannon fodder.
Wendy sees Asia lying on an alter of sorts. Wendy rushes to try and heal her but quickly realises that she can't do anything.
"What did you do to her you monster" Wendy shouts at Raynare.
Raynare starts laughing maniacally "I took her sacred gear. Now it is all mine" she shouts in glee.
"How dare you do such a thing I'll kill you" Issei roars a battle cry and rushes to punch Raynare.
Raynare easily dodges his feeble attempt of an attack ant taunts him "You were too weak to save her and you are too weak to harm me" she states with a sly grin. Issei tries another punch but Raynare just flies of the ground and floats in the air.
"I'll show you how a real attack looks like" Raynare declares as she forms two light spears in her hands witch she proceeds to throw at Issei impaling both his thighs. Issei let out a scream of pain and falls to his knees.
"Light based attacks are your weakness devil, soon this attack will burn you up from the inside" Raynare gloats over her successful attack. Then she notices a strange blue hue covering Issei's body which confuses her until she sees the same blue hue covering Wendy's hands that are pointed at Issei.
"So the little nun wasn't the only healer around town huh" Raynare remarks with a grin "No matter she will soon fall just like the rest of you"
"I have had enough of you! I'll defeat you for Asia and then you will never hurt anyone else again" Issei declares as a red gauntlet appears on his wrist.
A loud "BOOST" could be heard coming from the gauntlet and a spike in Issei's power is felt. With his new found power Issei delivers a brutal hit on Raynare sending her through the church window. Issei slumps down in exhaustion as he hears clapping coming from the entrance of the church.
"Well done Issei it seems like you activated your sacred gear" Rias congratulated Issei. Just then Koneko walks in dragging a defeated but conscious Raynare behind her.
"Well, well look what the cat dragged in. Don't beat yourself up too much Raynare you never stood a chance once Issei activated his sacred gear knows as the Red Dragon Emperor's gauntlet or Boosted Gear, that doubles the wielders power every ten seconds" Rias gloats to Raynare.
This revelation shocked Raynare that one of the legendary thirteen Longinus is in the possession of a child. Afraid of losing her life she looks for a way out and sees an opening. She dashes with a light spear towards Wendy fully intent on holding her hostage during her escape.
"Wendy!" came the shouts form everyone but before any of them could make a move, all of them including Raynare fell to the ground due to an overwhelming demonic presence and powerful aura. The only one left standing was a bewildered Wendy, completely unharmed and unaffected by this demonic presence.
It was so quiet for a second you could hear a nail drop, then everyone heard a loud scream of pain. Looking for the source of the banshee like screech all eyes fell on Raynare. Or at least what they assumed was Raynare. All they saw was that the space she once occupied, between the group and Wendy, was now a blazing inferno of crimson red and black flames. The group had to fall back as to avoid most of the heat coming from the inferno.
Once it died down there was nothing left on the space Raynare once occupied, not even ashes.
"What was that?" this was a question with no answer that everyone was thinking.
Issei being first to snap out of shock quickly ran to Asia's side.
"Wendy can't you heal her? Please save her" Issei pleaded with tears in his eyes.
"No sorry I already tried but nothing will work I'm sorry" a teary Wendy replied.
Falling to his knees Issei wallowed in misery. That is until he felt a delicate hand on his shoulder and turns to see the face of Rias looking down at him.
"She can still be saves. Quick Koneko hand me her sacred gear" Rias instructed after comforting her pawn.
Koneko having retrieved the two green bands from Raynare after she was knocked out of the church, gave Rias the sacred gear, Twilight healing. Rias then placed the bands on Asia's body and took out a Bishop Chess piece. After the reincarnation ritual both the sacred gear and the Chess piece disappeared into Asia's body.
"She will be ok now Issei, I will take her to my home. All she needs now is rest" Rias informed Issei who visibly relaxed after hearing Asia will be ok.
"Now let's all head home. This was a tiring experience for you all. Rest up and we will meet again tomorrow" Rias dismissed her peerage and with Wendy and a sleeping Asia in tow teleported away to their home.
Let me know what you think. Next up is Asia starting out her life as a devil and the familiar forest. Hope you enjoyed and see ya next time
