Chapter 61:The Wager

Not even a day later, all the ORC members were once again gathered in the clubhouse, and this time Rias was not happy, one could even say,

"I'm absolutely livid!" Shouted Rias.

"I'm just going to ignore the fact that you just said 'I'm absolutely livid,'" replied Damon, sipping from his flask.

"The Governor General of the Fallen Angels has infiltrated my house and interfered with my business!" Rias continued, ignoring Damon.

"Not to be rude," said Katrina, "but I believe that was already established."

"He deserves to die a thousand deaths!" Rias stated, growing more annoyed than before.

"I didn't realize you cared for Issei that much," said Adrian, raising an eyebrow. Rias turned to Adrian, breaking out of her rage,

"It's not like that Adrian. I care for everyone in my house with all my heart." Adrian paused, studying Rias, until Koneko broke the silence,

"So uh...are there really going to be a bunch of leaders meeting here?"

"It is absolutely true, I just recieved confirmation earlier," said Rias.

"We should probably make a plan just in case it all goes to hell," said Katrina, who was currently sharpening Soul Reaver. "What are your thoughts Xenovia?" The Goddess of War turned to the Durandal user, and the blue haired girl was deep in thought as well.

"All the relationships have been changed. Nothing is the same between anyone anymore. Angels, Devils, or Fallen Angels," she stated.

"That's probably a good thing," said Damon, "Because now we have a chance for peace! As much as I love a good fight, I would rather not fight in a war. No fucking thank you. And by the way," he gestured to Issei, "Anyone else get that sinking feeling that Azazel might be trying to take Isseis' Sacred Gear?" Issei looked down at his left hand,

"I guess that is a possibility," Issei said to himself.

"If that is true," began Adrian, placing a hand on Isseis' shoulder, "We will all be here for you. Besides, I still owe you for almost getting you killed...twice."

The following morning...

"Gross! What is that crap?!" The ORC members were standing next to the schools swimming pool, which was filled to the brim with slimey, green, moldy, disgusting water. Akeno laughed at Isseis' question,

"It hasn't been used since last year."

"Wait, we have to clean all this?!" Whined Issei.

"How does it make sense that our club has to clean the swimming pool?" Asked Xenovia.

"It's actually the student councils job, but we've taken it over," said Rias. "We thought taking on this responsibility would be a great way to thank them for all the help they gave us with Kokabiel."

"Not only that but Sona is still a little heartbroken about Wesker being in the hospital," said Adrian, with most of the ORC members nodding understandably.

"Hey, maybe when we're done we can actually use the pool for a little while," suggested Damon, removing his jacket and readying to clean. A thought occurred to Issei, and he whooped with joy,

"Yes! I love cleaning pools! I live for it! Raise your hands if you can't wait!" Issei then raised both of his hands high in the air with perverse glee, while most of the ORC simply stared at him, and Asia giggled at his antics.

"Riase two hands if you're just trying to be a pervert," added in Koneko, making Issei choke on his own saliva.

"What about three hands?" Asked Damon, raising his human hand, Devil Bringer arm, and creating a third ghostly arm with his Devil Bringer.

"That's you being a damn showoff," said Adrian, eyebrow raised at the former devil hunter.

Before anyone even realized it, the ORC had filed into the respective changing rooms to change into their gym suits to begin cleaning. Issei was pulling off his shirt, fantasizing about Rias, Akeno, Katrina and Asia in their bathing suits, while Adrian simply shapeshifted into his white tee shirt and gym pants. Kiba was nowhere to be seen, and Damon casually strolled into the open, buck nude, holding a wad of speedos.

"Hey guys! Which speedo should I go with once we're done?" He held up one with a rainbow pattern, "The gay pride speedo?" He then held up a navy blue one with a confederate flag on the back, "The white trash speedo?" He then pushed both swimsuits together, and magically made them dissappear, and replaced them with one that had a solid gold color. "Or the gold member?"

"Why are they all speedos??" Asked Issei, making sure he doesn't look below Damons' waist line.

"I like wearing speedos when I swim, that's why!" He turned to Adrian, "Yo A, what do you think?" Adrian turned to the nude Damon, looked at the three swimsuits that reappeared in his hands, and looked back away,

"Not the white trash one. In fact, why do you even have that?"

"That's a good question..." said Damon, looking at the confederate swimsuit with a riased eyebrow. He then locked one thumb in the waistband of said speedo, pinched the opposite side, pulled back as far as it would go, "FIRE!" He then shot the swimsuit straight at Issei, the garment wrapping around his head and making him fall to the floor screaming as he tried to pull it off. Damon, of course, burst into fits of laughter, while Adrian simply rolled his eyes.

"Damon, if you aren't beating some scumbags ass, drinking, smoking, or harrassing me about that threesome, it seems you like to pick on Issei and Kiba." Damon ceased laughing, and looked to Adrian with a hurt expression,

"Hey! Now I haven't picked on Kiba yet. Besides, I don't want anyone to think I'm being a bully to the only gay dude in our group." Kiba just rounded the corner, now in his gym clothes, and furrowed his brow at Damon in confusion.

"What are you talking about, I'm not gay." Damon and Adrian looked to Kiba surprised, while Issei finally unwrapped the speedo off his head.

"You're seriously not gay?" Asked Issei.

"No!"

"Really?" Damon returned Kibas' confused look, "It's just from the time I saw you, you were always flocked by girls, yet I have never seen you taking one out on a date."

"Well...maybe I already have a thing for one girl in particular!" Kiba said defensively. Damon folded his arms, not convinced.

"It's alright Kiba, wether you are or not is none of our concern," said Adrian, believing himself to be helping. Kiba simply looked at Adrian, shocked,

"But I'm not! I seriously have a crush on a girl already! Besides, even if I were what difference would it make?"

"It'd explain alot," Damon said with a shrug. Kiba gave Damon a look of surprise,

"Are you homophobic or something?" With zero warning, Damon leaned over to Adrian, cupped his face with his hands, and placed a quick yetyet noticable kiss on his lips, making him jump back, shoving Damon away and sputtering. The white haired devil turned to the shocked Kiba,

"NOT a homophobe."

"THE HELL WAS THAT, DAMON?!" Shouted Adrian, still wipeing at his lips.

"That was me proving I am not something," said Damon. Adrian glared at him as he made his way to the door of the locker room.

"I can still taste rum and weed on my lips motherfucker..." he added with a mumble, slamming the door behind himself. Issei looked to Damon and Kiba, then at the door where Adrian left, making his exit as well,

"I came to see G-Strings and Titty Slings, not Days of our Lives!" He called out over his shoulder. Once Damon and Kiba were alone, the former devil hunter grew serious.

"So you're truly not gay?"

"I have a crush on a girl, so no I am not."

"Who is it?" Kiba kept silent at Damons' question. "Just tell me it's not Xenovia," he continued with an eyeroll, "The girl is a complete-!"

"It's Tsubaki Shinra," Kiba said, cutting off his club mate. Damon stared at Kiba, more than a little surprised,

"Sonas' queen piece?" Kiba nodded, and Damon chuckled to himself, "Kiba you dog. Why haven't you said anything to her yet? You know, ask her out and such?" Kiba sighed,

"Because, I may have fought stray devils, noble devils and fallen angels, I'm still not to overly fond of asking someone out on a date," Kiba answered.

"Dude, the worst she could do is say no."

"She could laugh."

"Okay that is the worst she could do," Damon quickly corrected himself. "So is that your only reason for not asking her out?" Kiba nodded solemnly. Damon ran a hand through his hair, "Okay, then how about I make this wager with you; I get Adrian, Rias and Asia hooked up today, because I know he secretly wants it..."

"He's been pretty vocal about not wanting it," said Kiba.

"...and when that is done, I'll help you ask out Tsubaki. If I can't get the three hooked up, then you don't have to do anything. Deal?" He held out his hand for a shake, which Kiba looked at hesitantly, and after a moment, he accepted,

"Deal."

"GUYS! GET OUT HERE!" Kiba then ran for the door, with Damon quickly trying to yank his pants back up, only for him to trip as he was heading out the door. Once he looked up, he saw both Adrian and Kiba next to Issei, whose left arm was now shifting into a more red and scaley arm.

"That doesn't look good," Damon said, stating the obvious.
