Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!


Eye Catch #8: Asher is on fours on the checkered floor, his back bent down and his butt in the air. He's wearing a red and white speedo, revealing most of his butt cheeks and showing his underbulge. He's blushing and has his mouth open. His chest is exposed as well and he's wearing nothing on his feet.


Episode 4: I'm Gonna Save My Friend! - Part 3

Later in the evening, everyone met up in the clubroom. Kabu was going to eat his extra-large hamburger, but tensed up as he heard Richard slap Issei across the face, who was now dressed in the school uniform.

"I'm sorry, Isa," he apologized before looking stern. "I don't want to hit you, but it's for discipline. How many times do I have to tell you?" He crossed his arms and leaned against the wall. "It's not possible. Just forget about him. You're a member of the Gremory household." The brown-haired devil felt her cheek burning from the slap, rubbing the mark to numb it. Although she did deserve it...still, she cared a lot about Asher. She wanted to help him, even if it meant...

"So kick me out of your household," she suggested seriously, glaring up at him. "I'll do this alone if I have to."

Richard frowned. "Isa, you're asking me to do the impossible."

"But I'm just a Pawn to you, President. Losing a Pawn won't-"

"Enough!" he shouted, making Issei shoot back in fear.

"Pr-President..."

He sighed and stopped leaning against the wall, his arms dropping to his sides. "I'm sorry once again, but Isa, do you really think the Pawn is the weakest piece on a chessboard?" She looked away, unable to answer.

I do, but... she thought sadly.

He then sat his butt on the end of the desk and put his hands on the edges. "As I said, Evil Pieces possess the same traits as their chess counterparts."

"But then, what's the special trait of a Pawn?"

"Promotion." She was confused, never have heard the term before. "If a Pawn reaches to the last of the enemy's lines, they can be promoted into any piece other than a king."

Promoted to any piece? It made her think. "So, does that mean I'll receive everyone else's abilities?"

"As long as I, your master, see it as enemy lines, then yes." She nodded, understanding the concept. Akihiko entered into the room and Kabu approached him, talking to him. His smile turned into a solemn frown. "For example, the church. And as for your Sacred Gear..."

"It doubles my power and makes my bows out of nothing but my thoughts, right?" she asked, finishing his sentence and surprising him a little. "Yuut-" She suddenly realized what she was calling Raynark and cleared her throat. "The fallen angel told me about it." She closed her eyes, only to feel Richard cup her cheek, making her open them and blush.

"Use your mind." His voice was soft. "Sacred Gear is activated by its owner's will. The greater your willpower, the more powerful it will become."

"M-my...willpower?" Left to ponder that, he removed his hands from her.

As he stepped back however, Akihiko walked to him and whispered something to him, making his smile disappear and nod. "We have an urgent matter coming up," he announced as the two headed to the open space of the room. "Akihiko and I will be out for a bit."

"W-wait, President! What about our conver-"

"Isa, listen. Even with a promotion, a single piece can't stand against a fallen angel," he stated as a magic circle formed and made the two gentlemen disappear.

"Yes...I know," Issei replied. She'll risk anything to save Asher, absolutely anything. She had to save him...she will. She began to walk towards the door.

Yumi, sitting on one of the couches, stood up and asked, "You're going anyway?"

She stopped and answered, "Yes, and you can't stop me, princess."

The blonde-haired girl looked concerned and put her hands behind her back. "But you'll get killed."

She nodded. "Even so, I'll free Asher."

She closed her eyes and smiled. "I like your determination, but it's just a little too reckless."

Issei turned to her with an annoyed voice. "Shut up, princess!" she shouted before she noticed Yumi summoning a sword sheath by her side with a sword in it. That took her by surprise.

"I'll be coming as well, Hyoudou-chan."

"Wh-what?! You?!"

She nodded. "The President did say, 'Even with the help of a promotion'. And he recognizes the church as enemy lines."

The female pervert looked thoughtful, realizing something. "Then..."

"At the same time, he implied that we would back you up."

"'We'? You mean, Kabu-kun's coming too?"

He sighed and crossed his arms. "You two going alone would worry me," he stated. She smiled at them both, feeling confident. Was this how it feels to have allies? It was a good feeling!


At night, a young boy was sitting on a thick branch of a tree far from the church, moving his legs back and forth. He had messy short blonde hair and blue eyes. He was wearing a long-sleeved white shirt with a bowtie, black trousers, and black dress shoes. He pouted, looking impatient. "Ugh, this is so boring!" he grumbled. "Why do I have to stand guard?" He saw a red glow, making him look down at it. The red glow disappeared to reveal Akihiko and Richard. He stood up and sighed. "About time!" He jumped down and was bowing down to them. "People like to call me the Fallen Angel Milo!"

The raven-haired man smiled and closed his eyes at him. "Well, well~, how courteous of you, young man," he said.

"My servant sensed you," Richard stated in a serious tone. "You must be scared about us on the move."

Milo stopped bowing and giggled. "Nope," he replied with an evil smile. "It's just that we don't want the devils interrupting our ritual."

"Well then~, we'll have to apologize. Our cheerful kids just went there~." Akihiko chuckled.

The boy became shocked. "Wh-what?! Really?! Are you serious?!"

"Why yes, boldly going through the front gate," Richard answered with a smirk. He figured Issei would go anyway. He only hoped that she would be alright...

Milo turned around and angrily stomped his foot on the ground. "Goddamn it! I figured you'd be sneaking behind me from the back!" He sighed before getting a smirk on his face. "Well, the amount of dumb lackeys you'll bring won't matter! After all, you two knuckleheads are the only ones with a chance of interrupting us." He turned around and gave them an evil glare. "Thanks for coming all the way up here, gentlemen!"

"Oh, it won't matter." The young boy looked confused at Richard's statement. "We're not joining them."

"Oh really? You're abandoning them?"


Meanwhile, Issei, Yumi, and Kabu were hiding near the church entrance. "What a strong murderous intent..." the brown-haired female muttered.

"There must be lots of priests and nuns gathered," the blonde-haired beauty added.

"Dang..." She then glanced at her, smiling a little. "I'm actually relieved that you'd join me, Kiba. And Kabu-kun too."

Yumi smiled at her. "We are a team, after all." Suddenly, her smile slipped away and the look in her eyes became sharper. She continued in a low, serious voice, "And personally, I'm not too fond of fallen angels, priests, and nuns myself." She furrowed her brows down. "I despise them all." Surprised at this sudden change in her personality, Issei glanced at her with wide eyes. She had never seen the "princess" like this before...she was usually happy and kind.

"Kiba?" she asked with concern. Suddenly, the white-haired shouta moved from his hiding spot. "Wait, Kabu-kun?"

He stood in front of the entrance. "They must know that we're here," he said. Both ladies walked next to him as he kicked the doors open, his small bulge bouncing at the action. They all walked through the nave. The church was empty, but looked a little worn down.

"This is terrible..." Issei muttered.

Everyone suddenly heard a familiar voice saying, "Why hello there~!" Everyone tensed up as they saw Frieda skipping to them, wearing a nun outfit. She closed her eyes, smiled at them, and waved. "Nice to see you all again~. I'm afraid I'm getting sentimental~." She giggled. All of the devils looked at her angrily.

"Frieda!" the female pervert yelled.

The grey-haired nun opened her eyes to reveal them being Yangire-like and put her hands behind her back. "I never thought I meet the same shitty demon twice~," she said in her singsong voice. "You know~, since I'm super strong~. Once I see your kind, they DESERVE this kind of treatment~." She made a head cut gesture, making the noise imitating it. She then took off her outfit, revealing the same jumpsuit she wore the other night and the gun and light sword in her hands. "That's why I'm pissed off-" She pressed the gun against her lips, her pupils shrinking. She finished in her cold voice, "-you shitty demons hurting my pride." She then licked the gun, disgusting the devils.

"Gross...now where's Asher?!" Issei asked furiously.

"Oh~? The shitty priest who fell for a devil~? He's at the underground ritual site where you can reach through the altar~." She glanced towards at the altar, then back at them.

"Underground?" Yumi asked, getting her sword out. Kabu got into a fighting position.

"If you get past me, that is~." She giggled evilly, getting into battle position and smiling sadistically.

"Alright. Sacred Gear!" the brown-haired devil shouted as her gauntlet and bow and arrow appeared.

The white-haired boy carried an aisle chair and threw it at Frieda, saying plainly, "Take this."

She sliced through it with her sword. "Man, you're one insolent little dwarf, hmmm~?" she asked in a teasing manner, resting her cheek against the gun.

He stared daggers at her at that word. His voice gained a sharper edge. "'Dwarf'?" In a second, he threw more chairs at her. She dodged them and shot at him, which he and Issei dodged as well. Yumi charged at her from above, the grey-haired psychopath barely dodging her attack.

"Idiot!" she shouted in her cold voice as the two engaged in a fight. Frieda shot at the blonde-haired beauty, who dodged them and swung her sword at her, which she blocked.

"You're pretty good for a nun," the blonde swordswoman said.

"You're not too shabby either, to be honest~," Frieda replied before holding up her gun to her. "It REALLY makes me want to kill you~." She then pulled the trigger, which Yumi avoided by doing a backflip, kicking her sword away. The nun gritted her teeth. "Bitch."

"Whoa," commented Issei in awe. "So she isn't just all looks."

Yumi smirked at Frieda. "I'm so sorry," she sarcastically apologized. "Let me be a little more serious." Her sword then turned into pitch black. As the grey-haired sadist got her sword, she scoffed, stuck her tongue out, and lunged towards her as she did to her. When their swords clashed, Yumi's sword began to diminish Frieda's light sword. She gasped.

"H-how the hell-!" she exclaimed.

"Holy Eraser," the blonde-haired female replied. "The sword of darkness that consumes all light."

She let out a sharp groan. "You have a Sacred Gear as well?!"

"Seriously?" the female pervert asked. "Kiba also has a Sacred Gear?"

The blonde-haired female pushed the psychotic nun back and shouted, "Hyoudou-chan!"

"Oh, right!" She then pointed her arrow at Frieda. "Power up!"

"Boost!" shouted her gauntlet, her bow and arrow glowing green.

Frieda pointed her gun at her, smiled crazily, and yelled, "Stupid bitch!"


Outside of the church, Milo said to the two gentlemen, "Well, anyway, if I defeat you, their master, your puny servants will have nothing," he said as he spread his black angel wings out. "Yoohoo! Galanaki and Donnasia! Come forth!" A purple portal appeared behind Richard and Akihiko, making them turn around to see Galanaki and Donnasia themselves.

"You're acting cocky," the blue-haired fallen angel said.

"Well, we meet again, Sir Gremory," the older woman greeted.

"We need to pay back your servants, I'm afraid." However, the two devils mustered smiles on their faces.

With his eyes still closed, Akihiko said, "Well then~, it looks like you're all here~!" The both of them exuded a triumphant sort of confidence as they continued to stand their ground.


"Promotion!" Issei shouted, still pointed her arrow at Frieda and dodging her bullets. An imaginary rook chess piece went inside of her. A rook is ridiculously strong... she thought as the arrowhead turned into an ivory fist. "And have a ridiculous amount of strength!" She then shot the arrow at the woman and broke a bullet.

"Are you serious?" Frieda asked before the arrow hit her head, knocking her into a wall, making a dent in it.

Issei panted. "You've done terrible things to Asher and I won't forgive you for that!" she yelled before grinning. "I feel a lot better beating you."

The grey-haired nun slowly stood up, her body trembling. "Sh-shut your f-fucking mouth, cunt!" She got out her weapons and lunged for her, but Kabu threw another row of seats at her, knocking her back once again. She still wasn't unconscious however, as she slowly stood up once again. "Th-that fucking...hurt." Yumi then swung her sword at her, but she quickly jumped up onto the altar. "Tch! I don't want to be killed by shitty demons!" She got out a small pebble and laughed crazily. "Sayanara, shitheads!" She then threw it, dispersing a light, making everyone cover their eyes. When the light disappeared...so did Frieda.

"She escaped!" Issei exclaimed.

"At least she's out of the way," Yumi said, walking to her ally's side. "Let's go."

"Sure," the shouta replied as he punched the altar away, making it break into a million pieces and revealing a passage down to the ritual sight. The three went downwards at a fast pace.

Asher-kun! I'm coming! Issei thought, hopeful that she will finally save him.


"It's quite obvious that you're interfering with our plan," Donnasia said coldly towards the two devilish gentlemen.

"Repent with your life!" Galanaki shouted as he and Donnasia spread out their wings and flew up.

The red-haired man turned to the raven-haired one. "Akihiko."

"Yes, President." The raven-haired guy opened his now sadistic eyes and raised his hand in the air, forming a thunder cloud. He let the lightning hit him so he would absorb the power. In a transformation, all his clothes disappeared, including his underwear, leaving his well-toned chest, butt, and large manhood exposed. His arms formed sleeves around them, his chest forming the top, and his bottom forming the pants. He was in a red and white shrine outfit, showing some of his pecs. He licked his lips, his eyes soft but sadistic, and posed, ending the transformation.

"What the hell?" Milo commented with a puzzled look. "Are you nulling me into some cosplay show or what?" Akihiko ignored him, doing a hand formation and raising his arms up with a battle cry. Many magic circles appeared, making a barrier.

"Wh-what?!" Galanaki exclaimed in shock.

"A barrier?!" the young fallen angel added, looking around the barrier. "Ain't this pretty bad?"

The raven-haired devil chuckled as electricity sparked on his hand. He looked at him with sadistic eyes and a smile. "I'm afraid it is, since you won't get out of this cage," he answered before licking his lips once more.

"So this was your plan all along?" the blue-haired man asked.

"Yes," answered Richard. "We plan to get rid of all of you." He grinned. "My apologies."

"Oh, you think we're just birds?!" Milo shouted in anger as he shot up in the air.

"You'll just vanish, young man."

Galanaki scoffed. "Finish posing."

"Once the ritual is over, even you won't be able to stand in our way," Donnasia warned. To both of the young men, they all sounded so sure of themselves...


As the three servants finally made it to the scene, Raynark was there with his back towards them. "Welcome, devils," he greeted as he turned to them. "You're quite late." It was confirmed when they all saw Asher unconscious and chained up at the top of a stairwell, only wearing a pair of white semi-transparent pants. Many nuns and priests were there. They were all gawking at the sight, but Issei gasped. Her heart dropped. She couldn't believe she saw him like this.

"ASHER!" she shouted from the top of her lungs.

He slowly stirred and partially opened his eyes, seeing her, Yumi, and Kabu. "I...Issei...san?" he asked in a weak voice.

"H-hold on! I'm coming!" However, as she took a step, the blonde-haired beauty saw the head fallen angel throw a spear at her.

She quickly grabbed her and pulled her away, shouting, "Hyoudou-chan!" The both of them as well as Kabu were blown away from the shot, hitting against a wall.

"Oh? Did I ruin your dramatic reunion?" he asked scornfully. "I'm so sorry, but the ritual is almost over." The cross Asher was chained at glowed green, making him scream.

"Wh-what are you doing to him?!" the female pervert cried out, tears welling up in her ears and her teeth clenched tight.

Yumi gasped. "I see...the fallen angels' objective was to..."


"Obtain that priest's Sacred Gear?" asked Richard, raising an eyebrow. "Is that what you all wanted?"


"Sacred Gear?!" Issei gasped again and covered her mouth with her hand as she saw Asher screaming and crying in pain and agony as the cross continued to glow. His chest glowed green as well. "What'll happen to him?! Will he..."


"Make his life forfeit," he finished, frowning.


After that, the ritual was done. The cross stopped glowing and Asher hung his body down, his bulge bouncing a little and his eyes losing the glow they had. The green light in his chest flew away from his body.

"A-Asher is..." Issei whispered in grief as tears spilled down her cheeks. "...is going to die?" Her body shook in fear and grief. The green light made two rings, Raynark reaching out for them.

"Yes...your Twilight Healing..." he murmured as the orb hovered over his hands. "It's finally in my grasp." Issei started to cry more. There he was...near the brink of death...and she was too late to save him...she couldn't save him...again...she failed...again...


And that will do it for this episode. How was everything? Any typos or mistakes I might've missed?
