Slayer: We're back!
Judan: Yep we've cycled through three different story chapters in two days. All of you better be grateful, because we're killing ourselves here.
Shadow: It's only your guy's faults you know?
Slayer/Judan: We don't CARE!
Slayer: Right now it's eleven thirty eight. We need to finish up this chapter quickly.
Judan: Correct! Let's get started right away, first up are reviews.
Shadow: Alright then let's see… First we have Kaioo. And you are right, but that won't mean they can't be civil. Now as for one of our more frequent commenters. PersonaQeminod1 Kiba finds out later, and it will be by complete luck that he does. But as for him fighting Christopher in his true form… Not going to happen for a while, because right now it just wouldn't be fair.
Slayer: Thank you for your support and we hope you enjoy the chapter. Today we have the "date" and the revelation between Koneko and Chirs.
Shadow: Should be rather interesting.
Judan: Meh… I'm just looking for a good fight. I mean my story just came out with a new chapter. Unfortunately the fight we had in it was too short and boring.
Slayer: Then make a better one next time! I don't make the story for that one you know?!
Judan: You can't talk that way to me!
Shadow: I think we should just let them be for now… Anyway Koneko could you do the honors?
Koneko: Alright… Now we here at Dark Guard productions own nothing but OC's and reality building concepts. Everything else belongs to their respective owners… now without further ado…
Shadow/Koneko: Here's the story!
Slayer: Take my rail gun!
Judan: Taste the power of my plasma cannon!
Shadow: They'll be at this for a while…

Chapter Three: Dragons like Cats
The Black Dragon
I awoke early in the morning at my usual time, even though it was a Saturday my parents still went to work. So my job of making lunches was still in active service. Not that I minded, as I've said before I enjoy cooking. However I also had a special day planned. For today I'll be telling Koneko everything, and by doing so I hope she'll still accept me. Walking into the kitchen I cracked my back and got started. For me cooking has always been easy, I could do it by hand… or I could just use my gravity manipulation as telekinesis. As such I can do multiple things as once, and it also helped that my dragon like mind could easily multitask.
[Thou should be grateful for thy gifts.] I chuckled a bit at how proud Fernus sounded. But I decided to thank him anyway.
Don't worry I'll always be thankful for this. Getting back to cooking I was easily able to finish in thirty minutes. Patting myself on the back, I put them all into bento boxes and set them in the fridge. Looking at the time I smirked as I saw it was only seven thirty. With this I had broken my record for speed cooking. My last record was around seven forty five, and despite the speed. Everything had turned out perfect as usual. Rubbing my hands together, I thought about what I should do as I waited for eleven to come around.
I could read a book, or maybe I should give the others a quick training session. I decided that the second option was probably best. So going to my room I got dressed first. It was the same outfit I wore following Issei and Raynare. Although I scowled at my left glove, where I grabbed Dohnaseek's spear from before was now burnt leather. Sighing I decided to get it repaired later. Walking out of my room I headed up to Milly's room first, since I really didn't want to walk in on a naked Raynare and Issei.
I was about to knock on her door when it opened revealing an already dressed Milly. However instead of her black dress, she was now wearing an inverted version of it. Where it was black was now whit, and where it was white was black. I blinked in surprise as she usually never woke herself up. Looking up at me she smiled before giving me a short hug. Coming out of my surprise I returned it as we broke apart. Still I asked her what she was doing up so early for.
Putting her hands on her hips in a proud fashion she answered me. "Well now Chris Nii now that we know about the supernatural world. I've decided to start being more responsible, so I can act just in case anything happens!" I know she was being serious about this, but I couldn't help but glomp her in a hug rubbing my cheek against hers. This quickly made her start squealing only adding to her adorableness. I'll admit it I have a thing for cuteness. This was strangely enough shared by the original black dragon. Let's just say there was a reason why he lived on an island of Demi-humans.
However it was this scene of me hugging her, while she let out embarrassed squeals that Raynare and Issei found us in. Noticing them I stopped the rubbing part to look at them. Raynare was squealing about how cute this was, while Issei was shaking his head at me. Because although he was used to my antics he still thought I was strange. I snorted at that, as if he was one to talk about me being strange!
Letting go of Milly to face them I found it was strange that Issei was up this early. And I voiced it as such. "Huh… first Milly now you? I heard Mil Chans reason, but what are you up this early for?" Scratching his head embarrassingly he turned to Raynare who answered for him.
Folding her arms underneath her chest she spoke. "Actually it was my doing; I decided that with your date and all. That training at least early in the morning would be good for us." I couldn't help but blush and try to correct her when she said date.
"Oh no! We're not going on a date; we're just hanging out as friends. Any dates will probably be after this." She looked at me before letting out a breath, and shaking her head with a smile.
Looking back to me, she lowered her arms before speaking again. "Alright I understand, you're confessing today aren't you?" At her words even Milly was looking at me excitedly. I however turned red before answering.
"Yeah… I guess I am today…" (J/N it is now Twelve o'clock AM… We're dead.) When I said that Milly squealed excitedly and jumped up to hug me.
"Are you really going to do it? After all I've always wanted to meet Koneko!" Still a bit embarrassed I ruffled her hair a bit causing her to pout. But I could still see an excited gleam in her eyes.
Deciding to be brave I gave her my answer. "Yes today I'll do it and finally she'll be my girlfriend!" Now while Milly and Raynare seemed happy for me. Issei clapped sarcastically before speaking.
"And it only took you seven perfect opportunities to confess to her." At his tone of voice, I looked at him with an expressionless face while speaking.
"You're first to get smacked around brother." Now it was his turn to gulp nervously, while the other two laughed at his deserved misfortune. Eventually because of our commotion, our parents woke up and came out into the hall to check on us. However seeing how we were all having fun, they just smiled and went to go get ready. As for the rest of us, we went to the dining room to go get some breakfast.
The black dragon the white cat
The White Cat
Today I woke up earlier than I would on a weekend. While the usual time was nine I woke up at eight. I guess today was just a special day for me. For breakfast I just had an egg on toast with some milk. Something simple yet still filling, although I'd usually eat more… I guess I was kind of nervous about today. Because even though we said we were just hanging out as friends… I couldn't help but feel it was more than that. It also didn't help that Akeno kept pestering me about it.
Not to mention the clothes she wanted me to wear today. I can't help but shiver at some of the outfits. In the end I decided on wearing a tan mini skirt that flowed outwards and red tights, along with brown short boots. I also wore a dark red tank top underneath a tan jacket. The jacket was cut off a few inches above my stomach, and had red stripes going up the arms. The jacket turtle neck stopping below my chin. The arms also opened up a few inches before the bottom of the sleeve.
Looking myself in the mirror I blushed a bit. Among all the clothes Akeno picked out, I chose this outfit because it was less revealing. But I still wasn't used to wearing something like this. I know the schools uniforms were a bit more revealing than this. But this was the first time I was wearing anything to actually impress a guy. Looking away from the mirror, I was about to leave when I remembered something. Going to my dresser I picked up a small box.
Opening it inside were my cat shaped hair clips. Picking one up and running a hand over it gently, I remembered when I got them fondly. It was a happy time, a time where I still had my sister with me. Quickly shaking my head to get rid of those depressing thoughts, I clipped both of them on. I then walked back to the mirror and looked at myself. Leaning over a bit I put my hands behind my back, while I also closed my right eye and gave a cute smiled. After a few seconds I frowned.
What am I doing? Sighing I stood straight and slapped my cheeks a bit. Taking a deep breath I raised my right fist into the air.
I then spoke out loud my determination. "Alright! Todays the day I finally tell Christopher everything!" Standing there for a bit I had to raise an eyebrow as I heard a cricket. Looking around I saw to my confusion one on my bed. "What are you doing in here little guy?" Walking over to it I gently picked it up and walked over to my bedroom window. Opening it I let my hand out a bit, seeing the outside it jumped off and flew away.
Shaking my head at the strange scenario I closed the window and looked at the time. The clock on my dresser said ten twenty. Smiling since I still had plenty of time left. I grabbed a matching purse along with a brown watch that I put on my left wrist. I then left my house to go meet up with my hopefully future Boyfriend. Although I was a little more than hopeful now ever since that cricket showed up. You see according to some Chinese myths crickets are supposed to bring good luck. So as I walked along I couldn't help but have a small skip in my step.
As I walked however I felt something land on my right shoulder. Looking over I saw the same cricket from before sitting on it. As you can guess I was fairly confused by this.
"Hey what are you doing coming back here? Not that I mind but it just seems a bit odd." Its response was to nibble its front legs a bit, before wiping them over its head. It then began to sing as it rubbed its legs together. Chuckling I ended up resigning to having a cricket for a bit. After all it wasn't doing anything bad at the moment. I was also sure that it would leave after soon enough. (S/N It is one O'clock go figure…) Still smiling as I approached the mall. As I checked my watch I nodded my head as it said Ten forty five. In other words I was making good time.
When I finally made it there I saw to my surprise, that Chris was already there. However I also noticed three others along with him. One I easily knew as his perverted brother Issei. The other two I didn't recognize however. One was a small girl who looked twelve. She was wearing a white Lolita dress with a black stripe going down its front and back. Her hair was blonde and done up in a two ponytails, with a black bow on her head.
As I looked at the other I realized it was the fallen angel that asked Issei out. Though strange I saw her genuinely smiling and holding onto Issei's hand. As I approached closer, I also noticed that the smaller girl was also a fallen angel. However for some reason, she felt more pure than any I've ever met. Like she was an angel yet… not. The four of them were talking amongst themselves. As for Chris… I couldn't help but think he was pretty cool looking.
He was wearing his black coat, along with a white button up long sleeved shirt. He was also wearing black slacks and black leather boots, with the soles being red in color. Around his waist I could make out a dull black colored belt. On my shoulder the cricket who I've now named Hopper, stopped playing its music to just rest. Watching the four of them interact I looked in surprise as Chris picked up the blonde girl and started hugging her tightly.
She was also protesting, this made the other two laugh and I couldn't help but join in. Setting her down, he pulled out a black phone from his left coat pocket. I could tell he was checking the time, seeing this I also checked to see it was finally eleven. I looked up to see him looking around, and eventually he spotted me. Smiling he waved me over, so taking a breath I decided it was now or never.
Walking up to them I spoke when I was within seven feet. "Hello Chris Kun, I hope you didn't wait too long?" Smiling at me he just shook his head. Turning to the others I asked about them. "If you don't mind can I ask you who these two are? I already know Issei sempai but I don't know these two." As I looked at the smaller girl I could see stars in her eyes.
She then quickly turned to Chris and spoke in excitement. "Is this Koneko san Chris Nii?" I blinked at what she called him, while he rubbed his head chuckling.
"Yes it is. So Milly this is Koneko Toujou, Koneko this is Milly my younger sister. And that is Issei's girlfriend Yuma Amano." Both Milly and Yuma bowed politely to me. I couldn't help but do the same while looking over at Milly.
I can't believe his adoptive sister is actually a fallen angel. Might be why Yuma was here in the first place. Looking between the three and with them acting so friendly I couldn't help but smile. Oh well maybe she isn't so bad. As for Milly Christopher did say she had amnesia. Speaking to all of us Chris smiled brightly.
"Alright everyone, I just wanted to introduce you Koneko chan here. Now you guys can go off and do whatever." Milly pouted cutely before turning back to me with a smile.
"Take good care of Chris Nii.~ I hope to see you again soon." Chuckling I couldn't help but answer her positively.
"Don't worry Milly chan, I'll come by to see you soon enough." Smiling brightly at my words she then grabbed both Issei's right hand, and Yuma's left hand. And then proceeded to drag them away from the area. Looking over to Christopher I could see him smiling warmly at their retreating forms. Shaking his head before looking back to me I could see him raise an eyebrow before talking.
"Not to say anything bad… but why is there a cricket on your shoulder?" Blinking in surprise at the question I laughed a bit before answering.
"Oh Hopper? That's actually a strange story to be honest. You see I found him in my room, and then I let him fly out my window. However on the way over here, he came back and has stayed on my shoulder ever since." Looking at the insect with a curious look he held his left hand out to it. Then to both our surprise Hopper jumped onto his hand then his shoulder. We couldn't help but laugh at this. Then looking back to me he seemed to take in my full appearance then he turned his head to the side while blushing.
"You look beautiful Neko Chan." Now it was my turn to go beat red. But that didn't stop me from holding my right hand out to him. Seeing it he took it with his left hand, and we started walking hand in hand. As we moved I could feel my heart racing, here I was with the guy I liked… and I was holding his hand after he called me beautiful. It really was like a dream come true. Soon after we held hands Hopper jumped up, and landed on my left shoulder causing both of us to laugh a bit. Turning to look at me he spoke.
"So what do you want to do first Neko Chan?" Blushing at the nickname a bit I looked around and soon saw a bakery. Following my line of sight Chris chuckled a bit. "Well come on then if that's what you want. Then that's what we'll get." Turning to him I thanked him while we headed over to it.
The sign above it read "Shun's west to east bakes." Smiling excitedly at the sign I quickly hurried in, dragging Chris with me. Once inside we looked around to see white linoleum floors, and a few white tables and matching chairs. Over by the counter, I saw to my delight a bunch of different cakes out on display. Letting go of my hand while patting my head, Chris went up to the cash register. There wasn't anyone up front yet, so he tapped the bell to the right of the register.
Walking up next to him we waited until someone came in from the back. He had light brown hair and tan skin. His eyes were brown and he wore a baker's uniform. Much like one you might see over in France. This was odd since he was obviously Japanese. Walking over to us with a big smile he spoke with a slight French accent, despite still speaking Japanese.
"Hello there!~ How may I Shun Fargo help this fine couple today?~" We both blushed at his words, but for some reason we didn't correct him. Still I was lucky Chris Kun was quick to recover.
"If I may ask why do you sound French?" Laughing a bit he answered his question.
"Why you see, I was born in Paris to my Japanese father and French mother. You see only two years ago, did I come back to my father's homeland. To create wonderful cakes based not only on western styles… but also eastern style baking." Chris Kun seemed actually very interested in this. Not that I blame him, he both cooks and bakes delicious foods. So any new cooking techniques were like a birthday present.
Smiling he continued his conversation. "Really? Then we simply must try these mixed bakes. So please tell us what you've got." Smiling at Chris' challenging tone, he brought out a catalog with all of his goods in it.
Eventually turning to one page in particular he pointed to one of the cakes. "There she is!~ My simplest yet greatest creation!~" Taking the book from him we looked at the cake. And I must admit I was intrigued… The cake looked like a normal round double layer chocolate cake. Except that it had a frosting swirl of dark fudge coming from its center. It was interesting in that the cake also had the same frosting, separating the two layers. (S/N Guess what? It is now two.)
Looking at it I had to admit that it does look rather simple, yet based on Chris' face there was more to this cake than met the eye. Turning back to Shun with an excited look in his eyes, he spoke with a voice that matched his eyes.
"I think we'll take this one please." He nodded his head before clapping and speaking.
"Alright two slices of the mixed swirl coming right up." However before he could go off into his kitchen Chris spoke up to him.
"Actually could you get us the full cake?" Turning around he scratched his head while looking between us. But ended up nodding his head in conformation, before going into his kitchen. Taking hold of my hand again he led us to a table right next to the left wall. Letting go of my hand, he went up and pulled out a seat for me. Smiling lightly I sat down in it as he pushed it in. Then quickly he went and sat in the opposite chair from mine.
It was at this time that I questioned him about the cake. "So… why did you ask for a whole cake, instead of just two slices?" A grin formed on his face before answering me.
"I'm pretty sure you already know Neko Chan. After all… you do eat quite a lot more than me. And also quite a lot faster, especially concerning deserts." I couldn't stop the blush that came to my face at his words. But I truly couldn't help it! I just like to eat delicious foods, it's not my fault I can eat so much!
After a bit of waiting and the two of us just talking, eventually Shun came out with the cake. Setting it down on our table he quickly produced forks and plates for both of us.
Then taking out a cake knife I watched in fascination as he quickly cut the cake into eight pieces. Then finally kissing his index and middle finger on his left hand, while making a popping sound he spoke.
"Voila bon appetite!~" He then walked away back into the kitchen. Looking at the cake I took a piece and placed it on my plate. But to my surprise the cake didn't fall apart, thanks to the two layers and swirl. No instead it stayed together. Sticking my fork into it I slowly took a bite from it.
The black dragon the white cat
The Black Dragon
Watching Koneko practically melt, at each time she took a bite of the cake. Brought a small chuckle to my throat, which I couldn't contain. Koneko looked at me briefly but ended up going back to the cake. Already she was on her third piece. As for me I was just taking my time with my first. However I also wanted a second one, and knew I had to grab it before she ate all of it. So finishing up my piece I took my second as she finished her fifth. Coming back out Shun looked at us in surprise.
Not that I blame him, I acted the same way the first time I saw Koneko eat. Shaking his head he came up to me.
"Now I know why you needed to whole cake. But still the cake will cost you fifteen hundred yen please." Nodding my head I ended up paying him in bills. Counting it he nodded his head while smiling and left back to the kitchen. Once he was gone I sighed. The cake was excellent no doubt, but still it was rather expensive. Still it made Koneko happy… speaking of whom she had just ate the last slice of cake. However her eyes were on my last piece. Chuckling I took a piece of it and held it out with my fork.
Turning to her I spoke with a slightly humorous tone. "Open wide Neko Chan.~" Blinking a bit I saw her blush but she still opened her mouth. I then proceeded to put the fork and bit of cake into her mouth. Closing her mouth I pulled back softly as she chewed on it with a happy face.
[Can this child get any cuter?!] At Fernus' words I laughed a bit before answering.
In truth I do believe she can. I heard him snort in agreement before he became quiet again. Taking a bite for myself again, I saw her eyeing my shyly. At that I couldn't help but feed her another piece. After a bit more back and forth of this there was finally no more cake left. This left a sad and pouting Koneko to look at the empty plates. Laughing at her antics, I looked at her only to notice that Hopper was still with her. It was then that I got an idea.
Getting up I help out my left hand to her. Seeing it she smiled and grabbed it with her right, and we made our way to the door. Before leaving I called back to Shun.
"Thank you very much for the cake!" Listening we heard a reply from the kitchen.
"You're most welcome!~ Please come again sir!~" With that we left the shop. Walking around a bit we eventually came to a pet shop. At this Koneko looked at me strangely, but I only smiled and pointed to Hopper.
"I figured if he's staying with you, then he'll need a home or something." She blinked a few times before smiling and nodding her head in understanding. Swiftly entering the shop, it took a while to find a good home that our pretty much sentient bug friend wanted. It was strange actually I felt nothing out of the ordinary from him. Yet he was the one to lead us around by hopping everywhere.
Eventually we found a nice foot by foot glass box for him. And I had to admit he had good taste. Inside there was a small pool for holding water. Next to it was a bunch of sand that reached to the top of it. And then next to that was fake grass with a small house on it. Originally this was supposed to hold leopard geckos, so we found it ironic that it's favorite food. A cricket would be living in it from now on. As soon as we paid for it Hopper like his name sake, jumped into it and started lying on the sand.
The whole thing was strange so we didn't question it. After that we went to a few more stores, but our last stop was the candy store. There I got Koneko quite a few different kinds. Personally I just hoped that it would last till the next week. But more than likely it'll all be gone by Monday. It was at this time that I basically became broke. Personally I didn't mind seeing how it was all for a good cause. (J/N It is now Three whoopee!...)
Eventually we decided to leave the mall and go walk outside. Looking at my watch I saw that it was already four. We had spent five perfect hours in there. Looking at her with a wonderful smile on her face, I decided it was now or never.
"Hey Neko Chan can we find somewhere to sit, there's somethings I need to talk to you about." Looking up at me I could see her thinking before answering me.
"I believe we can do that, after all I need to tell you somethings as well." At her words I started looking for a secluded place. Eventually we came to a wooden bench next to a tree on its right side, and a street lamp on its left. Looking around I saw no one and decided that this would do. Moving over to it I sat and put the bags I was carrying down to the side. Sitting on my left side Koneko put the container holding Hopper down. For a few moments we just sat there in an awkward silence.
Luckily for me I had Fernus. [Christopher… tell her thy feelings. It is time that she knew the truth.] Closing my eyes I nodded at his words. So taking a deep breath and letting it out slowly I turned to her. Seeing her hands in her lap fidgeting nervously I gently took a hold of them. Looking up to me she saw my serious face, and then before she could say anything I spoke.
"Neko Chan there are some things that I need to tell you… important things, which I've kept hidden for most of my life." Taking a moment to think I continued. "You see I'm not who or even what you think I am." Now at that her eyes widened a bit, but I was glad she didn't say anything yet. "You know that I asked you earlier this week if you believed in dragons." She nodded her head positively, and I could almost see her thoughts moving.
Then taking one final breath I told her. "You see that was because I am a dragon. The black dragon god to be precise…" Her eyes widened in shock at my words. But she didn't say anything about me lying, or being a monster so that was good so far. However she did eventually lean closer to me with her eyes narrowing into mine.
And when she spoke it was with authority. "Show me proof." They were simple words, but they were rather complicated. Thinking of what I could show her, I decided to let go of her hands and take off my glasses. Then closing my eyes I started to let out some dragon aura. So when I next opened them they were once again red reptilian slits. Surprise filled her eyes, as she lifted her hands to my face, and brought it closer for her to see. Eventually she let go and looked down to the ground to think a bit.
However after a bit she started to laugh slightly in… relief? I was kind of confused by that, but she talked soon after.
"It seems I wasn't the only one hiding something." Turning to me I could see a small smile on her face, as she continued speaking. "In truth I'm also not human Chris Kun. You see I'm actually half devil, and half Nekoshou." Then in order to prove her words I saw a quick distortion around her. Once over I saw that she now had two white cat ears on her head. As well as two white cat tails coming out from her skirt. I blinked at this before chuckling myself. I already knew about the devil part, but I didn't know about her being a Nekoshou.
But personally I didn't care, so gently I put my left arm around her and brought her close. Surprised at my actions at first, she eventually closed her eyes and leaned into me, and put her head on my shoulder. Seeing this I put laid my own on top of hers, making sure not to lay my head down on her ears. We stayed like that for a while before I pulled back and turned her to face me. Deciding it was now time I spoke softly.
"Koneko… I love you; I've loved you for a quite some time now." Hearing my words her eyes widened in surprise. But then they closed as she gave off a beautiful smile. Then without saying anything she wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me. At first I my mind stopped at what was happening. But like I said, I thankfully have Fernus who kicked me back into gear. After he rebooted my brain I wrapped my arms around her and returned that kiss.
It was a few moments later, when we actually broke from the kiss. Still smiling she spoke to me. "I love you as well Christopher." Now hearing those words made my heart leap for joy, and I couldn't help but kiss her again only more deeply.
She was only happy to return it; eventually we broke away because she needed air. I was fine however thanks to my dragon lungs. After all if I'm flying at incredible heights, I need a strong heart and powerful lungs to keep me going in the thinner atmosphere. Now laughing and smiling we let our foreheads touch as we held each other. At this moment in time we couldn't be happier.
The black dragon the white cat
Eventually we just sat there embracing each other. However I eventually decided there were a few more things, I needed to tell her. So holding her a bit tighter I spoke.
"You know you asked me about what happened during Issei's date. I suppose you'd still like to know?" She nodded her head but didn't say anything. So I began to tell her what happened, even when Dohnaseek attacked Issei and Raynare. However when I got to the part where I burned my hand, because I grabbed his spear. She hit me on the head and looked at me angrily.
I looked at her while rubbing my head as I spoke. "Why exactly did you do that for? I know you don't like it when I get hurt. But I honestly didn't know it would do anything to me. You know being a dragon and all…"
She sighed at my logic before answering. "Now while that is true, and I understand that you didn't mean to get hurt… You only got hurt because you did such a risky move. So please… don't do things like that anymore." As she said those words her eyes became as fragile as sad kitten eyes. Looking at them I could only gulp nervously. And based on the ruckus I heard Fernus making… he too was affected by these eyes.
Eventually I just sighed before giving in. "Alright… I promise to refrain from doing such things in the future." Almost instantly her face became happy again, and she started nuzzling me like a cat. At that I couldn't help it, I hugged her tightly and started to rub my cheek against hers. "Has anyone ever said just how adorable you are?!" She started blushing heavily at my affections, but didn't say anything against them. In fact she seemed to be enjoying them.
Eventually I calmed down and just hugged her regularly before continuing. It was then that I explained how I decimated Dohnaseek. After that I told her about us making our way back to our house. She had ended up laughing when I told her our parent's reactions. Then I finished up by telling her what I told Issei and Raynare, and also what I discovered about Milly. To say that she was surprised would be an understatement.
Although… she did have a rather good question for me. "Wait a minute… if you're so good at sensing things… and you found out about the rest of us so quickly… why did you not know before?" I had to admit it was a little bit of embarrassed of the reason. But still I told my new lover the reason why.
"Well at the time I thought there were only us six dragons… So I just wrote off anything unnatural that I felt. I feel rather stupid for it now though." She ended up giggling at my answer which caused me to sigh. But then an idea lit up in my head.
So turning to her I smiled deviously. "So… you like to laugh huh?" Now looking at me in worry, I laughed as I brought my hands up. "Well laugh at this!" I than began to tickle her, causing her to laugh. I stopped when she seriously needed some air. However after that she glared at me playfully. (J/N almost done but now it's Four.)
Chuckling at her face, I reached into my right coat pocket and brought out a box. The box was a dull cream color, and had a purple bow tied around it. Looking at it curiously, I could tell that she was wondering what it was. Smiling I handed it to her while speaking.
"This is a gift I got a while ago, one I had planned to give to you once I confessed my feelings. So go ahead and open it." Looking to me then the box, she removed the lid and looked on in marvel at what was in it. Inside was a silver necklace, with a clear oval shaped diamond attached to it. The precious rock was small only the size of a humming bird egg, but it gleamed in the light. Taking it slowly out of the box she watched as the light reflected off of it in different colors.
Smiling at her expression I gently took it from her and placed it over her head. Letting the diamond fall just a little bit under her chest. Turning back to me she launched herself into my chest, causing me to fall onto my back. Luckily I didn't fall of the bench. Now with our faces just inches apart, she once again brought her lips to mine. Around our legs I could feel her tails brush against my legs. But I was more focused on the lips that had captured mine. Breaking apart so she could breathe, I lifted my hand to her ears and started petting them. This quickly got her purring while she placed her head on my chest.
Wrapping my other arm around her waist we stayed in that position for quite some time. Fortunately we didn't fall asleep but we were pretty close. And to be frank I don't think we'd even care if we did. We were just too comfortable at the moment. But like all good things they couldn't last, and looking at the time I could only whistle.
Hearing this Koneko looked at me in confusion. Seeing this I decided to clear it up. "Sorry but I just checked and it is eight fifty right now. Do you want me to walk you home?" Getting off of me she shook her head as I too sat up. "Are you sure?" she nodded her head before blushing, and what she said next surprised me.
"Instead of you taking me home… can I sleep at your house?" I looked at her for a moment before smiling.
I then petted her head again before answering. "Sure, as long as you can put up with my parents." Smiling happily she gave me another hug before standing up followed by me. Then taking a hold of her hand, we began to make our way to my house before it got to dark.
Lucky for me my house was even closer to the mall than Koneko's. Unlocking the door and making our way in, I first thing we saw was Issei and Raynare watching some movie. They were currently snuggling, while our parents did the same thing on the other side of the couch. Strange to be doing it in the same room… but no one ever said this family was normal. Looking up at the sound of the door Mom's eyes lit up when she saw Koneko.
Then as expected her response was a bit much. "Honey! Look at Christopher he's brought home a girl!" Now everyone was looking at the two of us. So trying to be polite I introduced my new girlfriend.
"Mom, Dad, I'd like to Introduce Koneko Toujou. As of today we're officially together." Smiling Koneko gave a polite bow before talking.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs., and Mr. Hyoudou. I hope we can get along." Both of them got up to properly greet her. Once that was done I let out a yawn before speaking.
"Wow it's getting late, I hope you don't mind but Koneko Chan will be staying the night here." At my words they said it was perfectly fine, as long as we used protection. I couldn't help but yell out at them for that. "Sorry but we're definitely not ready for that! Sheesh… it seems the mystery behind Issei's pervertedness is no longer a mystery. You two are worse than him sometimes you know?" When I was finished they began shuffling their feet while whistling innocently.
Shaking my head at their antics, I said goodnight to everyone and headed to my room with Koneko. Once inside I turned to her and apologized for their behavior.
She just shook her head. "Don't worry I actually find it nice that they care so much. But I also found them kind of funny." She then looked at my statues before continuing. "So I guess those are the dragons?" I looked at them while nodding my head sadly. Wrapping her arms around me she spoke.
"Don't worry from now on I'm here for you." Smiling I turned around and returned the hug.
Knowing she too has felt loss I spoke to her softly. "I don't want you to worry either, because I'll always be here for you as well." Ending our embrace we looked towards my bed with inquisitive expressions. "So… how do you want to do this? I can sleep on the floor if you want, I do have a futon somewhere." She shook her head negatively before talking.
"No you don't have to do that; in fact I have an idea. But first can you get under the covers first." Confused I nodded my head and went over to get put on some sleep wear. Turning around so she wasn't watching Koneko spoke again, only with a bit of a stutter this time. "Can… can you le, leave your shirt off?" Surprised I complied and only put on my pajama pants while getting into bed.
Seeing this she spoke again with an even bigger stutter. "Ca, can yo, you turn aro…around please?" Suspicious I did as she asked. As I looked away I heard the unzipping of her jacket, and the rustling of clothes. Just when I asked what she was doing, I felt another person crawl under the covers with me. "Okay you can turn back now." I quickly did just that to that Koneko had crawled into bed with me. She was right now in her Nekoshou form, and wasn't wearing any clothes except for her lower undergarments.
And despite how dark it was in my room, I could tell that she was blushing up a storm. I could tell because it was happening to me as well. Moving closer to me I felt he press her bare chest against mine. Deciding to just roll with it I wrapped my arms around her gently and kissed her forehead.
Smiling I spoke to her. "You know you didn't have to do this Koneko." Closing my eyes I opened them when I heard her speak.
"Shirone…"
"Hmm?" Taking a breath she repeated what she said.
"Shirone, my real name is Shirone. And when we're alone I want yo to call me either that, or Neko Chan understand?" Blinking in surprise I held her a bit tighter before answering.
"Of course Shirone, after all you are my Neko Chan. And dragons don't let go of what's theirs." Giggling at my words, she thanked me before closing her eyes. Soon after I heard her breathing slow as she fell asleep. Kissing her one last time I too closed my eyes and let sleep take me.

Omake Three: A worried king
The spectator
The day of the date.
Rias was currently pacing around the clubroom. Her thoughts occupied with worry for her small rook. The only one to witness her pacing was Akeno her queen. Sitting on one of the couching sipping her tea calmly she watched as her king… tried to create a trench in the floor, by pacing back and forth. Sighing she put her tea down and addressed her.
"Rias calm down you're doing nothing but worrying. I'm perfectly sure Koneko Chan's fine right now. This is a big step for her yes, but she needs to do it alone." At her words Rias stopped, and sighed while still staring at the floor.
Looking back to her queen Rias gave a small chuckle before talking. "I suppose you're right… but can you blame me here? She's already been hurt once, I'd rather that she not be hurt again." Smiling sympathetically Akeno got up and patted her king on the back before speaking again.
"I understand completely Rias. But I have faith that she has chosen wisely. After all we've both seen how they interact with each other. Most of the school has! So don't worry, she'll be fine and because of this a hole in her heart will start to fill." Looking back to Akeno Rias nodded her head vigorously at her words.
Raising her fist to eye level she started to speak. "You're right! I've worried over nothing! If anyone deserves to be together those two do! And if Christopher Hyoudou hurts her… We'll just murder him!" Akeno smiled happy that Rias finally understood the situation. Well mostly… She did grimace at the whole killing Christopher Hyoudou part. But before Rias could continue, the door to the club room opened up. Looking over they saw a frustrated Kiba walking in.
As he sat on one of the couches Rias questioned him. "Umm… Yuuto is something the matter?" Turning back to her than the floor he answered her.
"Yes… yes there is… You see I've been trying to find out who wrote that note. And no matter what I do I just can't seem to find the person. At this rate I'll forget about stupid holy swords just to find out where this person is… And when I find this person… Hahaha… Mwahahahaha!" It was at this point that Rias and Akeno stepped back a bit in worry. Turning to her queen Rias whispered in her ear.
"Forget about Koneko for now, I think we should focus on Kiba more…" Folding her arms underneath her chest Akeno nodded in agreement.
