It was just another day in which Issei was going to hang out with his friends but he could sense that something was wrong. After reaching the Gremory families place he found a crying Rias with Sona trying to comfort her. He walks over and asks, "What wrong Rias? Did something bad happen?" He was kneeling down in front of her while asking this.

It took a minute for Rias to stop crying before answering. " *sniff sniff* M-my dad just t-told me that I h-have to get married. I havent even met him before but I have to marry him. What do I do?!" After saying this she went back to balling her eyes out. Issei took on a serious voice and asks, "Who is it that you are being forced to marry?" all the while clentching his fists so hard his nuckles were turning white.

Rias took another minute to answer. "H-his name is Riser. He is a part of the Phenex family. Why do you ask?" Sona realising what Issei was planning to do tries to stop him. "Issei, dont do anything stupid." Before she could even finish he was gone from sight.


Issei had gone back to the dimensional gap to talk to his parents. "Mom, Dad, I need your help. Rias, my friend is being forced to marry someone she doesnt want to. Is there anything I can do?" Issei looked up to his parents because they were not only strong but extremely smart as well. So surely they know some way that he can help her.

They look at him for a few minutes before his father answers him. "Nothing, there is nothing you can do..." Issei couldnt believe what his father just said. There was nothing he could do? Why? Great red continues breaking Issei from his thoughts. "...for now. If one of us went and told to cancel the marriage then they would but I knownthat you dont want that. So the only other thing you can do is get stronger. Get so strong that they have no choice but to listen to you. This would take a few years of non-stop training and you would not be able to see your friends in that time." This was a test from Great red to see what Issei would choose.

Issei was in deep thought for a while. 'The only way to help her is to get strong, but to do that I wont be able to see them for a few years. I need to help her but...I wont be able to see them. I have no choice Im sure they will understand...I will get stronger to save her.' Make his decision he looks back at his father and tells him his decision. "Ill get train to get stronger, but I need to at least tell them I wont be able to see them for a while." Great red smiles at this, proud of the choice his son made. "Very well, Ill give you till tonight to say your goodbyes. Then we will get to training." Issei thanks his father and heads back to the underworld.

Upon returning he sees that Rias is still craying and starts to speak. "Im going to stop your marriage...but to do that Ill need to go away for a few years. In that time I wont be able to come visit. We my not be together but I will come back and save you." He says this in such a resolute tone that there was no dout that he would do everything in his power. After saying this he turns around and leave through a portal.


Off to the side hidden away from them stood Sirzecks and Grayfia. The satan was also unhappy with the arranged marriage for his sister so he was trying to vome up with a plan to stop it. That was until he felt that Issei's uara had begun to become agetated so he went to investigate. He did not expect to see him promise to save his sister. Knowing Issei as well as he did and his heritage had no dout he would keep his promise so the least he could do was buy him some time. He turned to his wife and sopke. "We shall leave this matter to the boy. We shall do our best to buy him as much time as he needs." Grayfia was dumbfounded, Sirzecks is intrusting the future of his beloved little sister to some boy they dont even know where he came from. She was about to speak before she noticed the look in his eyes. It showed her that he had complete and udder trust in the boy and so all she could do was nod.


8 years later...

Issei's training had been extremely tireing and it made want to give up a few times but everytime that happened he would think about Rias. Doing that always helped him renew his resolve and continue his training. That isnt to say he just forgot about Sona either, she was still one of his only two friends.

His training started out slow with just his parents teaching the basics of magic and how to control his dragon abilities. Although he had the raw strength, he close to no control or technique. It escalated to spars with his dad, Great Fucking Red, the strongest being in the universe and he was an extremely tough teacher. He taught Issei how to fight hand to hand. While his mother taught him as much as she could in magic.

After all that it still took him eight years for his parents fo say that he was ready. In the last year they informed him that both Rias and Sona had moved to the human world and were going to school while doing their devil work. So they had started preparing to move to the human world once Issei was ready, so they have lived in the human world for about a month now. Issei was waiting for the next school year to attend and surprise his friends.

Today was the first day of school and he was on his way there. He had informed Sirzecks that he would be moving to Kuoh town and going to the same school as his sister. The satan had to give Issei permission since that town and school were the territory of devils. They had also made plans to surprise Rias and Sona by not informing Sona of his transfer. They had to do this since she would usually know, being the student council president and all.

By the end of reminicing Issei had reached the school gates. As soon as he entered he heard wispering about him. Some were from the girls talking about how hot he was while the boys were crying, as they were jealous that a another hot guy was stealing all the girls. This was even more evident with two boys specifically. They were known at the school as the perverted duo. Now Issei couldnt really fault them for this, but he could fault them for being so open about it. Since he too enjoyed looking at the female body.

He made his way to the student council room to get his schedule as well as surprise Sona. As he was on his way there he thought of a good prank to pull. As soon as he got to the door he released a portion of his power but still keeping contained within a small radius around him. He didnt want Rias to learn of him yet. As soon as he released his aura he could hear everyone in the room get ready for a fight. He stayed there for a second before knocking.

"C-come in." A quiet voice was heard from the other side. He smiles and opens the door to walk in. After entering he smiles at Sona before saying, "Hello, I have come to pick up my schedule." Everyone there stayed on guard. "...And what your name be? I dont remember there being a transfer today." This caused Issei to smile even more causing everyone to tense up. "Im hurt. I cant believe you dont know my name. Have you already forgotten me?" This caused everyone there to become confused even more than before.

Issei seeing that this is not going anywhere sighs. "My name is...Issei, Issei Hyoudo." This caused Sona to drop her jaw. Then tears started to fall from her eyes. The others seeing this just watched as Issei starts walking towards their king, now with a big goofy smile. They stayed on guard waiting for Sona's order to attack, but it never came. What they saw next was even more confusing for them as for the first time they saw their king hug someone while still crying.

Starting to feel back for his prank Issei starts patting her back. "There there, its ok. I promised to come back, didnt I?" Sona still hugging him with tears says. "What took you so long?" They just continued to hug until Sona evetually calmed down and once she did she was incedibly embarrased.

Collecting herself she addresses her perrage. "This is Issei, he is a friend from childhood." After she says this everyone else in the room visibly relax. Sona then starts to introduce everyone in the room to Issei. She then asks, "How come I was never informed that you would be attending this school?" She is more than a little suspicious right now if the glare on her face is anything to go by.

"Uhhhhh, well I wanted to suprise you and Rias so i asked Sirzecks to have someone handle my transfer with either of your knowledge. Even Serrafall agreed to help." Issei said with an awkward smile.

Sona just sat there with a calm smile begore speaking. "So, if I have this right you and two of the satans worked together to pull a prank on said two satans little sisters?" Issei felt a vold chill run down his spine upon hearing this so he decided it was time to run. Without another word he left the room running for his life while thinking. 'Since when did Sona become so scaaarrryyyy!'

After Issei ran away from the room Sona perrage could see a smile as well as a small blush appear on Sona's face. Seeing that everyone was stareinh at her she asks. "Why are you staring at me?" Everyone stayed silent until her queen decided to answer. "You are smiling and blushing. It appears to us that you like that boy." Everyone started nodding non-stop causing Sona to blush even more from embarrasment.


After Issei stopped running he started heading towards his class. He was in class 2-A, and he soon reached the classroom. The teacher let him in, asked him to introduce himself, so he did. He was then told to take and empty seat. The entire class was uneventful and went by pretty quickly. He had already been taught all this by his parents. So during class he thought about how he was going to suprise Rias after school.
