Late At Night
Coming in silently, Issei silently slinked his way to the back door gun in hand. He looked closely at the handle to determine if he needed to pick his way through, fortunately for him, the door had no keyhole. He gently grabbed the knob turning it ever so slightly wincing from the tiny squeak it made.
Fully twisted he let the door swing open gently thankfully it didn't make a sound, sticking his head through the creaked door he peered into the darkness that looked right back at him with no sound. Slipping through he did a quick evaluation of the warehouse to find nothing out of the ordinary as he glided along the edges of the wall he was immediately assaulted with a foul stench that almost made him want to cough.
Years of holding his breath kept him from making a sound as he stood still trying to slow his breathing from out his mouth and in his nostrils. As he took another step he felt something push against his foot, seizing his body he looked down to see what it was he touched hoping it wasn't anything that tried to eat his custom made boots.
The moon's natural light beamed through the overhead windows of the warehouse giving Issei enough focus for his eyes to discern what appeared to be a boot that didn't seem to attach to anything else. As his eyes came into focus the stench came even stronger than before. Scratch that, the boot had something attached to it but what it didn't have was the rest of the person to go with it.
Carefully avoiding the chopped-up fragments of what was once a living person, Issei realized this creature had been going at it for a while as he passed by more and more bones. How could something like this slip past them? They live here and he hasn't heard of people going missing until tonight, either he's losing his touch or something else was at play here. He also considered the fact that he was occupied by the Factions invading their territory, he has been trying to focus on their present situation which led to a slip in their security.
He shook his head ridding of those thoughts, storing them for another time. As he was halfway across the 'feeding ground' a dark blob shifted in front of him. Dropping into a squat he quickly hid behind a heap of human remains, carefully not touching the dead he squinted his eyes to make out the shape.
As his eyes tried to adjust his left arm buzzed, receiving the message he took a deep breath not trying to choke on the decay around and let his eyes close. His mind cleared as he expanded his senses, feeling another pair 'eyes' open as he searched the sounding around feeling the movement in the air 'looking' around him as he tried to find the target. Feeling his 'eyes' move forward he could see the outline of a person who appeared to be on their knees moving their hands about as they appeared to be grabbing onto something. Like a dog, they seemed to be putting their face on the ground with the thing now in its mouth as it appeared to be slobbering on it like a doggy treat. Issei knew what it was and likely was intruding on it while it was having supper, he opened his eyes and the world turned into a familiar black and white outline of night vision. Not risking it he kept his other 'eyes still turned 'on' which risked him being seen from the soft green glow coming from his eyes.
He turned around and took his first step when his hand accidentally brushed against a chewed arm leaning against another body that fell to the ground with a thump
'This year's award for Rookie mistake goes to...' He thought with a grimace as he turned his head to see the Stray stop eating as it looked around the warehouse to see what made the sound.
As quickly and silently as he could he ran to the back hiding behind what he couldn't see before a steel pillar which had a bundle of Slurry Pipelines right next to it that hid his body quite well. Just as his body was hidden the creature looked over his direction, he watched as it stood tall dropping it's 'dinner' with a meaty splat
Calmly it walked over to his hiding spot sniffing the air like a curious pet when it discovered something interesting.
"What's this~," The now identified woman said as she continued her leisurely pace looking around her as she playfully twirled around like a child.
"I smell something spicy~yet enticing!~~What's a lost soul like you wandering around this time of night?" She continued to make her way to Issei as he thought of a plan he couched walked to the end of the pipes, as he got near the end he could see the floor in the corner of the warehouse filled with rubble with what appeared to be a hole in the ground that could fit a person, her 'nest' so to speak. She could've gotten a queen-sized bed or a hammock but living like a mole could also work, not that he's criticizing her living arrangements but she could've gotten better.
Over with his inner monologue, he dared to look over the steel pipes to see her moving forward more assuringly, "I wondering what your thinking of right now~~ Seeing a woman like me in this time of night trying to catch a peek at my delicious body~~"
She said as she played with her breasts which he then realized was not clothed giving him full access to her nude form, her body was in the shape of a normal person from the top but the bottom not so much. Her lower half was covered in fur that gave him the impression that she was wearing furry winter pants like some British hippie chick that belonged in the 70s.
Trying to disengage from his distraction thoughts he ducked back down reassessing the situation he looked over at the pit and his brain hatched an idea grabbing pieces of the rubble he waited for her to breeze her way to him, "Come Out, come out wherever you are~~"
'Wow, she's not even trying to be original.' He thought as she moved around the pipes with a smile that kept growing even after the normal human limits until stretched ear to ear. "I'm getting closer~~" as she got halfway the pipes that's when she heard it:
thunk!
"AAAAAAUUUURRRRGGGG!" Screaming demonically, she turned around and bolted to the sound coming from the back door. Within seconds she grabbed the open door in hand and ripped it off its hinges, looking outside frantically for her meal but could see nobody moving around. As she was going to pursue her invisible person her nose picked up a smell that was the person but not as fresh.
Another sound came from behind, finally losing her glee she glared hatefully at where the noise came from, "You think you can play games with me?! A Stray Devil that not only killed my fellow Devils but other servants that foolishly tried to stop me?!" Having enough she kicked the neatly stacked pipes with a powerful kick that sent the rest rolling on the ground, "My name is Viser, remember it when I eat your entrails!" She stepped over the pipes hoping to see a bulge or figure sprawled on the ground easy for her yet nothing seemed to be moving.
Bang!
"AAARGH!" Her whole body twisted as a hole appeared on her left shoulder, quickly looking around Viser saw no one else in the room with her until she smelled something not below but above! Her eyes lifted in time as the moon fully lit revealing a boy not even of age hanging from the steel pillar with a gun in hand, she only had time to glance at him before everything went dark in her right vision,
Bang! "AAAAAUUUUUUGGGH!" Screaming even louder than before her whole body quickly ripped apart at the bottom as she fully unleashed her monstrous form. Four arms the size of cranes grew out from her body like a quadruped both in the front having actual hands with razor claws colored bloody red,
"MY EYE! MY EYE!"
A reptilian tail sprouted out her back or ass end as she said this trashing it around as it knocked away everything and with his luck the beam he shimmied up on. Issei leaped to safety as the pillar was knocked out the ground, gracefully he landed on his feet and ran to the other corner of the room where she wasn't tearing it up in a tantrum.
"YOU LITTLE SHIT! YOU SHOT MY EYE! I KILL YOU YOU, YOU HEAR ME!KILLYOUKILLYOUKILLYOU!"
That's when the front doors of the warehouse opened, Renji didn't hesitate to fire with his H&K USP in hand, Saji not far behind pulled out his pistol and began firing in earnest. The bullets pierced the flesh of the Stray covering the floor with droplets of dark blood.
Holding up her human arms to shield herself from the oncoming assault, her human illusion dropped, revealing the ugliness underneath. Her mouth stretched impossibly to her pointy elf ears as the teeth inside sharpened into bladed canines. Finally getting her bearings she grabbed her breasts roughly as circular red sigals flashed over her nipples aiming it back at the two humans.
Renji's eyes widened and on instinct grabbed Senji's collar, "Move!" Throwing themselves to their right in time as a stream of green liquid passed by hitting the warehouse wall immediately began to eat up the metal at an alarming rate. Fully aware of her nipple acid Renji ran to the other side of the warehouse catching the Devil's attention, her nubbers ready to attack spewed acid behind the moving target-Flashing hot pain burned across her chest as a hole the size of a fist ruptured from her left breast.
"MY BOOB! YOU SHOOT MY FUCKING BOOB! WHO THE HELL DOES THAT?!"
'A crappy shot that's what.' Hyoudou thought disappointing as he was aiming for her head but misjudged the kickback from the charged upshot.
The spell over her beast flickered as she applied pressure to the wound until it disappeared completely, her face twisted in anger like a wounded wolf as she ignored Saji and Renji and went for the pest that managed to wound her twice.
She let her only good boob let loose a spray of acid that flew at Issei in a wide splash that sailed past him harmlessly as he blitzed as he ran around her. Trying to keep up, Viser shifted her legs to predict his path, Issei ran around her jumping over the spilled pipes as her rotten milk landed on one of them melting away the material as fast as ice meets heat.
As he ran towards another metal pillar he slowed down, Viser not passing the chance aimed right at him striking the support beam while Issei once again disappeared in a flash this time as he heard a groan coming from the building as it struggled to hold itself up.
Viser yelped when she heard the sound, she turned around to the front doors when her foot accidentally caught on the pipes she carefully tried to avoid. Like a spider on rollerblades, she kept on falling as her legs kept slipping under her. Taking random potshots at her exposed torso Issei gave the signal to the two, both began to retreat as Issei followed closely behind, "Hey stormtrooper! Did your tits come from the same place they give plastic surgery for the sad and desperate?!" Not sure she got his reference but her yelling did convince him that she didn't take the insult well.
Rushing Issei jumped over the melting portions of the ground hissing as it ate its way through the concrete inch at a time. On his way out, Issei glanced over his shoulder watching as the Stray gathered herself to chase after them as she hissed at them like a pissed off cobra.
The air outside became fresh once again as he raced across the asphalt catching up to Renji and Saji in seconds.
"Just like last Thursday night." He said casually without a hint of exhaustion.
"Huff huff kee-keep r-running ass-huff-hole," Renji said as he huffed and puffed along poorly.
Click!Click!Click!
In unison, all three guns pointed behind them and fired. The Stray covered her vital areas as she caught up to them, her disproportionate black haired leg made a reach for them.
Pew!
Another shot pierced through hitting her stomach, she let out a painful gasp as she clutched her stomach as more bullets rained from a single direction. Yoshino locked another round in the chamber and watched as the Stray began to slow down as she took her beast in hand and instead of what he thought would only see in hentai was instead a wad of green goo that singed the pavements turning the rock hard ground back to liquid goo, "What the fuck?"
Yoshino's involvement gave them enough time to lengthen the distance making it by the skin of his teeth.
"Get cover." Renji grunted as affirmative, both ran back to the vehicles while Issei slowed his run and yelled over his shoulder, "Hey Bitch Face! You can't catch me!"
Turning her view over to the one who gave her the worst injuries it didn't even grace her mind as to why he was slowing down or running backwards to face her. Her animal instincts took over like the mighty lion hunting a gazelle her legs coiled and jumped at the brunette with enough force to crack the ground.
"You lose." Isse calmly said as she fell at him like a tiger pouncing on its prey, as she was assured of his demise her body did something unexpected. Like a cartoon her body remained frozen in midair, her face twisted in confusion before she slammed flat on her face onto the parking lot.
Her arms quaked as she struggled to push herself up, the ground beneath her was any old boring road she would see in the human world but written on the ground her only eye frantically wandered over red lines that crossed over each other forming into what appeared to be a giant pentagram. She's never seen anything like this even from her times as a pathetic servant to an even more pathetic master, this was something she never encountered before, and just looking at the symbols and runes sprayed on the ground she knew that there was this unworldly vibe to it. Whatever it was, it was old and powerful that held authority over her.
"Wha-what is this?" She said with fear as she tried resisting the spell but with no results from her struggles.
"A Devil's Trap."
Issei said as he got right in front of her, his gun glistening with light as it absorbed his power transferring it into ammo.
Raising the gun at her head Viser watched as her executioner looked down at her with an expressionless face that held no warmth, she trembled as he stared her dead in the window of her tainted soul, "The name's Issei Hyoudou, Red fucking Dragon Emperor. Remember it in hell when they ask who sent you."
Boom!
Her head snapped back as the magic bullet traveled through her brain, her whole body twitch before it fell forward impacting the ground. Her only eye glazed over as the blood from her wounds seeped into the ground covering the parking lot with thick nectar.
He lowered the pistol at an angle as Renji and Saji walked up from behind, they watched as the blood began to form a puddle around her head.
Concluding she was no longer going to jump right back and liquify them with titty juice Renji took out his flask.
"Well then, sayonara lady. Your days of eating virgins are over."
He took a small sip, "You can't just keep charging up your gun with that mumbo jumbo crap, it wasn't made to hold that much." Renji criticized playfully as he put away his drink.
Issei looked at his gun as the barrel smoked heavily from heat exhaustion, the once gleaming chrome color now lost its shine as the gun's muzzle turned into a charcoal texture.
Too bad it wasn't a Devil Arm.
It was wasteful to use his charged shots like that when he had other options to end the fight but when he thought about it, Viser chick used her boobknobs as a weapon of choice. He shook his head, "No, she deserved much worse."
He do it again.
Still talking in a disapproved tone, Renji mockingly continued, "What was with that shitty shot back there? Or was it too dark for you to see? Did the sun get in your eyes this time?"
Issei couldn't help but gripe, "Your one to talk, your endurance is shot for shit, you're sure you're not going to kneel over?"
"Old people jokes? How about 'You can't catch me?' What are you 8?"
As they continued to bitter over each other's small mistakes Issei broke it off first as he excused himself just as Yoshino came over.
As pale as a sheet, Yoshino walked over jittery as he was still coming to terms of the fight, "Did she just?"
Renji nodded his head already reading his mind, "Yep."
"Right out her-" He made a grabbing motion to his chest.
Saji released a deep sigh, "She did."
"...why?" He said, his voice cracking.
"Because...Why not?"
Still didn't answer his question but at this point, none of the others wanted to know.
Issei pressed the speed dial number and waited for his contact to pick up the phone. After a few beeps, a very annoyed man picked up, "Who's this?"
"Hey Dirty Harry, feeling up for a late-night karaoke?" He asked with a smug look on his face as he heard another groan on the other end.
"Issei it's 1 in the morning, the hell is it this time?"
"There's another one over at Building 23 on Block 12." He answered seriously this time.
The person grumbled on the other end, "The night was never over, was it? What did you find?"
"At least a dozen bodies mutilated, you're going to have to call in the whole team and nerds, tell them to bring their big boy pants and rubber boots. It's a big mess."
"Don't you have school tomorrow or I should rather say today?" The disgruntled voice asked exasperated from being woken up late.
"Give my guys at least an hour to cover up." Issei said ignoring his question, "The body will be gone by then, I also need your help with another case I picked up on my way out of the capital." He heard some background as the person on the other end moved around.
"Another cas-?-kid you need to slow down, all this work is going to do is make you go grey in the hair trust me I've been there before."
"Not this time, I'm taking someone on."
The man on the other end hummed in interest, "Really? First time that's happened, what made you change your mind?"
"Too much happened, gotta pass the load onto someone else's shoulder. I'm sure they're ready."
"Does it have to do with your time while in Tokyo?"
"You're the detective, you can figure that part out. I just wanted to give you the heads up and wanted to know if you're still wearing those ridiculous jammies your parents gave you when you were 12."
"Goodnight Issei." Issei chuckled as he hung up the phone. He spotted Yoshino in the process of dismantling his weapon and Saji walked back from the car with two water gallons in hand. Handing one over to Renji they began to splash the water on the corpse of the Stray that started to smoke when the water touched its corpse. Within seconds the body became a bubbling black tar that easily passed as an oil stain to any normal passerby.
Issei clapped his hands which made everyone turn towards him, "Well, this has been a night and a half for everyone. Keep up the good work everyone. Be seeing you whenever."
As he turned to leave Saji immediately asked, "Where are you going?"
"There's more work that needs to be done," Issei answered without turning around, "I'm keeping ahead of the schedule and I'm going to head on over to see how our new neighbors are warming up to the place." He got in the car and took off down the street. They watched as he turned a corner and disappeared from their view.
"He'll be alright won't he?"
Saji sighed from everything that happened this past day from getting a girlfriend who most likely wanted him dead to hiding the remains of an evil creature, "Yeah Kiki-San, he knows what he's doing."
He couldn't help but feel a little put off when he left. It's always the same with him but lately, it's all Issei seems to do: finishing his part and leaving the rest to them. Not that he can fault him for that, he's been working hard to keep them safe and finding a solution to the exorcists crawling their way into the city.
Now that school has been moving along Saji can't find the time either to help monitor their town, luckily Renji or Kiki seem to have that trouble when it comes to free time as one is already a grown adult and the other just likes to skip.
Sensing his woes, Renji offered his canteen to Saji to drink. Saji took one look at that stuff before making a sour face before politely refusing. Although Kiki was too curious for his good, so when it was offered to him he grabbed the silver container and took a fast slip. He immediately coughed it back up violently, Renji chuckled under his breath as he took back his drink from the coughing teenager while mumbling the word "Virgin" under his breath as Yoshino made sounds of clearing his throat before hawking out a white foamy spit wad.
I just researched this and found out that most streets in Japan don't even have street names, just Block Numbers according to when they were built from 1 being the oldest to new numbers being recently built. Fun Fact. Shooting from her breasts has got to be inaccurate as hell, I mean you're hip-shooting with a water pistol. Oh Viser, who had little screen time you had haunted my dreams of girls with burning jugs, maybe that's why I'm only interested in the smaller types? Less of a risk that way. If you need assistance on how the Stray screamed watch Scary Movie 1 where the cheerleader's head gets cut off. For those of you asking/wondering about me introducing other Supernatural characters let me be clear that they will not be included. I know it may come as a disappointment to some, but that's the way I'm going about my fic. There would be too many variables for me to write about, Dean's very existence in this universe is already chaotic as it is. There will be mentions to his previous life here and there but that's as close as I'm willing to include.
