Aight, It was hard to come up with this one. I got the big thing that everyone doesn't want rn so I've been focusing more on my health than anything else and just trying to wait it out. I do intend to keep posting chapters for this story but I've been thinking about doing another one once I pass double digits in chapters for this one. I'll have an update on what I will be doing with this story at the end of this chapter so look out for that.
"Asia, huh? That's a nice name." Issei smirked as he looked at her. 'Sweet married mother of Joseph. She is adorable..."[...]" "{Ive seen better}" While Ddraig stayed silent, Terumi scoffed at Asia's appearance. Asia blushed at hearing him compliment her. After all, after living a life cooped up in the Vatican, she isn't very accustomed to receiving compliments.
"Uhm, thank you!" "Anyway, do you need help with anything? You look pretty lost." Asia blushed again in embarrassment. "Y-yes, I was transferred from a church in Italy. I've been having trouble looking for it since I can't speak Japanese very well..." She looked down at the ground, embarrassed over her own inability. "Well, do you have the address? I can take you to it...?" Issei had a suggesting look on his face saying 'Let me help you!' "O-Ok! Here is the address."
As they walked, Asia's stomach began to grumble, causing her to blush a bit. "You wanna get something to eat? I know a good place nearby. " Asia was too embarrassed to talk and only nodded.
'Huh. Yeah, I hate myself.' "{Ooooh? And why is that~?}" Terumi had a smug face of interest as he questioned Issei. 'Simple. Nice, cute, and clumsy naive girl. I happen to have a bad case of "Over Protective Big Brother Syndrome." It's a bitch but hey, it works when it needs to.' "{Heh. Reminds me of that little prick Jin and his obsession with his older brother. Albeit more stabby and less protect.}" Terumi rolled his eyes at the memory he had of Jin Kisuragi trying to kill his brother Ragna when he was inhabiting his previous host. '{I wonder how Hazzy is doing...}' Terumi thought to himself for a few moments while Issei continued with Asia.
A man wearing a long black coat and a fedorah spoke with a man on the phone inside an old building. "So I heard Raynare has not reported back from her mission. That is unfortunate. I will be sending another to fill her place to continue the plan." the voice over the phone spoke to the hat wearing man, who had a very pained face. "I-I... see. Thank you, sir. We will await their arrival." "Good. Do not fail me, Dohnaseek. Or else you, and the other harlots will face a fate worse than death. I have been lenient with you because of Azazel's favour towards you three. I end that compassion today. You have been warned." Without being able to reply, the man over the phone hung up. The man wearing the hat, now named Dohnaseek, threw both it, and the phone that was in his hand to the ground, breaking the phone and crumpling the hat. "DAMN IT! That bitch Raynare finally died and here I thought we could be free from their tretchery! Then that bastard Kokobiel just had to call! DAMN IT ALL!"
Dohnaseek turned to face two others behind him, a tall woman wearing a cromson red office outfit and thigh length blue hair and a small girl with blonde hair in pigtails wearing a french maid outfit. "Sorry, I... didn't know you two were there... Looks like we're not in the clear yet. Listen, Kalawarner, Mittelt. Just do what this guy says when he gets here. We can't afford slip ups, you need to make sure everything this guy needs is done. If he works with that bastard, then we can count on him being just as bad, if not worse than Raynare." Dohnaseek turned and picked up his hat off the ground, dusting it off as he put it back on. "Get some sleep you two, we have a long week ahead of us." Mittelt and Kalawrner nodded as they went to the cots that thehy used as beds, trying to get somesleep while Dohnaseek stayed up. After all, he had a guest arriving soon.
After they finished eating dinner and getting to know each other better, Issei say Asia heal a boy who had scrapped his knee falling down. He didn't question her, though he had a feeling it was a sacred gear. Soon after that, Issei and Asia finally arrived at the church that Asia was supposed to stay at. It wasn't what Issei expected. It was old and abandoned, there were broken windows, support beams sticking out of the walls, and holes in different parts of the building. Whether or not she was supposed to stay here, his better judgement said that she should not stay here under any circumstance. He didn't say anything though, as to preserve his growing relationship with the girl infront of him. "This should be the place Asia, is there anyone inside that is waiting for you?" Asia nodded and ran to the door, knocking on it when she got close enough. After a few seconds of silence, a man wearing a large black coat opened the door. "Yes? Oh, Lady Asia. It is good to see you alright. We had expected you earlier, did something happen?" The man had a decently worried look on his face, though it turned to shock after he looked at the person standing behind Asia. 'Isnt he the one Raynare was supposed to kill? Why is he still alive? Maybe he...' He was in yhe middle of thinking but snapped out of it as the boy spoke up. "Well since youre in good hands, i'll see you later Asia! Good night." Issei turned to leave but noticed the face on the man, he had a feeling what was going through his head and smirked at him to confirm his suspicions. 'He did kill her. Then that means...!' The mans face turned from shock to something akin to plotting.
"Come now Asia, let's get you inside, but, if I may ask, how did you meet that boy?" "I meet him just a bit after I came into town! He took me to get some dinner and brought me here! He is really nice." "I see... Thank you, that lets me know that he wont come to harm you. But I ask that you limit your interactions with him. I would like to get a better sight of his personality and see if he should be capable of taking care of you while if you were to spend some time together, away from the church." His words had no hint of deceit, though they did have an alterior motive behind them. "Come now, Asia. Let us get you into bed, you need sleep. I have some more work to do so dont mind me." The man let Asia to what should be her bed, a green cot set in the corner of the main room. It had many blankets on it to protect from the cold when need be and a soft pillow for her head. "Thank you, Mister Dohnassek. In hope you come to like that boy, his name is Issei, he seems really kind. Good night." "Good night Asia, sleep tight." As Asia slipped into unconsciousness, Dohnaseek went to tail the boy he had seen.
The look he gave him earlier indicates that he had indeed bested Raynare, so that means that he was strong, or at least stronger than her. He couldnt take the chance of just listning to the guy Kokabiel was sending, and he sure as hell couldnt count on that dickhole-ish Freed for help because of his loyalty to Kokabiel's side. If anything, whoever this kid was, he could help Him and his friends from their fate at Kokabiels hands. 'Issei Hyodou, I believe that was his name. Raynare had deemed him a danger to Kokabiel's plans and went to kill him. Apparently, his sacred gear was supposed to be strong, though I thought she said it was unawakened...' Dohnaseek was lost in thought but still paying attention enough to try and follow Issei. Eventually, Issei had come into his view. He looked like he was talking to somebody, though he wasnt close enough to hear what he was saying.
"[So I can tell that you felt the presences in the church, correct?]" Issei nodded after Ddraig had broken the silence as they walked home. "Yeah, if I had to assume, I'd say they were with Yuuma. But just because they were part of the same group, it doesnt mean I need to kill them. But if they hurt Asia, then they will know that hell hath no wrath like a man protecting his friends." "{Oh come ooonnnn. Why not just killem now and get it over with? Kill them, take the girl, TAKE the girl, and be done with it!}" Issei sighed and rolled his eyes and then shook his head. "No, Terumi! Im not gonna go kill people because they have ties to a homocidal maniac! AND, im not gonna 'TAKE' Asia! It's called 'BIG BROTHER SYNDROME' for a reason, you damn megalomaniac!" Issei and Terumi bickered back and forth while Ddraig just ate popcorn (metaphorically) and watched them bicker until they went home. Ddraig was also the only one to notice the fallen angel tailing them but didn't mention it as he felt no hostility.
While Dohnaseek was following Issei, he got closer but only just enough to hear him screaming. " No! Im not gonna go kill people because they have ties to a homocidal maniac! AND, Im not gonna 'TAKE' Asia! It's called 'BIG BROTHER SYNDROME' for a reason, Terumi!"
'Who is this "Terumi he's talking to? He doesn't seem to have a phone on him. He doesnt have an earpiece... Wait, is he talking to his Sacred Gear? If he is, then he has already past the point then I need! Yes! I need his help no matter what!'
Dohnaseek smiled in victory after coming to this realization. Knowing what he needed to, he returned to the church. He was going to get Issei on his side no matter what. And he knew Issei would help him because it's not only his and his friends lives on the line. It was also Asia's.
As Issei and Terumi finished bickering about what to do about the people in the church, including Asia, they had arrived back home. Ddraig still kept that one of the fallen from the church had followed them for a couple of blocks had left. Issei had gone to bed early, but all he could think of was Asia. There was something about her that he couldn't place his finger on. But he decided to think about it more later.
Another day had come and Issei woke up when he needed to. He still sulked over the loss of his parents but he needed to do them proud. He didn't know if they were in heaven or hell, but he needed to focus on his life. When Issei was getting ready to head to school, he checked his mail. 'Mom, Mom, Mom, Dad, Dad, Mom, Dad,... Me?' Issei flipped through the mail but stopped when one of the letters had his name on it. It had no stamp or return address so he could assume that it was hand-delivered. It had his name in the corner, stylish penmanship akin to old english calligraphy. All it said was "Urgent, Read Immediantly". He decided to read it during his lunch break since he didnt really care all too much.
Issei walked to school as usual, though this time his face was much softer. It lacked the depressed tone it had for the last couple days. Upon seeing this, many of his neighbours had sighed in relief. Eventually one of the older women in the neighbourhood walked up to him and spoke. "Hello, Issei dear. Has something been going on with you? You havent been as cheery lately. Are you alright?" The woman had concern in her voice and worry on her face. Issei turned to look at her and spoke in a meloncholic tone. "Oh! ! Yeah, I'm doing ok... At least better than I was a few days ago. Something happened and I've just been... taking it in." Issei looked away after he spoke and got a reply immediantly from . "Oh my! What happned?! Are you ok? Do your parents kno-" stopped dead in her tracks after piecing it together. Issei looked like he had attended a funeral and his parents havent been seen for days. The womans face turned from confused to shock as Issei spoke again. "Yeah... Yeah... Im pretty sure they know, from wherever they are... Anyway, ive got to get to school, . Have a good day!"
Issei turned away from the woman while she still had a shocked face and walked down the road, continueing his walk to school. snapped out of her own thoughts by her husband. " Hey, Mako? Are you ok?" tunred to her husband. "...No, dear... Something terrible has happened."
Chapter end
Ok, so, UPDATE: I'm not gonna finish this ark. I'm not. I don't know what I should do with the actual plot leading to the confrontation with the fallen angel Kokabiel sends. So I'm not going to skip it ENTIRELY, just make a small TLDR post that says what happens in what order. I'll leave what happens to later. I intend to write out a full version of it but that will be in the distant future, along with the chapter one revision. So have some of what will be happening. You are welcome to write your own version and send it to me with what is in the TLDR post and send it to me if you feel so inclined. I'll look it over and If I like it, I'll ask if I can use it so be ready for that. Also three things.
1. There will be a bisexual harem for Issei as he doesn't care much for gender, like he couldn't care less about genitalia or other sexual differences. He still sees gender just doesn't care for it as he likes a good personality more than features but they are always nice and welcome. Harem may include Rias, Akeno, Koneko, Amaterasu, Ophis, Saji, Kiba, Sairaorg(?), Riser after a redemption ark (Debatable), and a few others that I can't think of at the moment.
2. Asia, Gasper, Kalawarner, Mittelt, Dohnaseek, and Ravel(Maybe) will not be part of the harem as they will fill in the found family trope that I like. Dohnaseek is the father figure because I think that if he was kept in the story in a good light he could have been a good mentor with how suave and polite he acted even though he was a part of the enemy. Kalawarner because I'll have her as Dohnaseek's spouse and a mother figure since she has the general look of a breadwinner businesswoman and treats Mittelt like her child since she practically raised her alongside Dohnaseek when her parents (their friends) had passed and then Asia, Gasper, and Ravel (maybe) will fill in as siblings for him to be overly protective about and go berserk if something happens to them, along with Dohnaseek and Kalwarner.
3. I will be making another story eventually and was wandering on what to do for it. I'll see if I can find a way to put up a poll for the story choices on what you people would want to see so check for that eventually. I've had some pretty good ideas that I don't know have been done yet and if they have and that one gets chosen I'll do number two, then if that one has been done then so on and so forth.
That is it and I'll see you later... or whenever I manage to make the TLDR chapter.
