So sorry for not updating, but I've been slightly depressed. I also didn't want to deal with coming up with rhymes for the FM. But, I was listening to a song and decided to suck it up and get to work. (Song, Ring my Bell, Sora no Otoshimono) I also want to get to the second part. Part 2 and 3 will have a lot less combat (thank fuck) and I suck at writing fighting. Sora no Otoshimono and Spice and Wolf have little combat. After the Kokabiel and Gasper parts, I'll be going off of the Manga. Damn, I need to get reading, lol. Just trying to deal with Manga's on those damned web sites is torture in itself. What illiterate inbred designed that set up? I don't know.
For any Sora no Otoshimono fans, after the *cough* ending of Eternal My Master, I will continue with it. Heh, I have a brilliant set up to bring all them back AND end it proper. People over at whoever made that show, TAKE NOTES!
ryderb18 suggested Tiamat as a familiar. They (Idk gender, I don't like to assume) said she isn't used often. Don't worry, she won't use dragon form much. I am terribly sorry if I don't get her character right. I also do not mean to offend any cultures (especially Babylonian) with this idea. If you take this personally, don't read.
I own nothing.
"This guy likes to rhyme... This will be hard to listen to." Afestus sighed, walking through the forest with everyone else. Afestus had his hands behind his head and walking with large steps.
"This places looks like Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon. Sweet." Afestus grinned. Everyone looked at him.
"Far Cry 3?" Kiba inquired.
"Well, from my dimension, video games are very popular. Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon is a popular game." Afestus explained as simply as he could think. Everyone nodded, but really didn't understand. All of a sudden, a huge-ass creature appeared.
"HOLY SHIT! IT'S A 5 HEADED DRAGON!" Afestus flipped. Everyone started running for the hills the second they saw it. The dragon looked right at Afestus. It suddenly lowered its main head down to his level. Afestus was shitting himself, but he held on to some bravery and stood his ground. Everyone turned around and looked at the two. Its main head was red that had four really large horns. Its first right head was green that looked like Paarthurnax. To the right of that, a dark purple one that looked like it belonged with the fishes. To the main head's left was a rock colored one that had the same horns as the main one, just smaller. Finally, to right of all of them was a black colored one with a neck that had many spikes coming out of them. Overall, it looked friggin badass. It also looked like it could take on the whole world single handedly. The dragon was as long as two football fields and towered over seven stories. Its main head alone is the size of a semi-truck. It spoke with a very rasp and gravelly voice. It was also deeper than Morgan Freeman when he is trying to have a deep voice.
"You, are you the Zodiac wielder?" It spoke slower than than a 90 year old person.
"That'd be me. May I ask who you are?" Afestus replied/questioned.
"I am Tiamat. The five-headed dragon god. In case you're wondering, I am female." even though she was a dragon, she had a smirk on all five of her heads.
"Wow, really? I thought dragon's didn't have a set gender. Oh well, you learn something new every day." Afestus shrugged, forgetting he was in the presents of a dragon.
"You seem calm." Tiamat started walking around Afestus. This proved slightly difficult, since she rivaled a large hill in size and Afestus was the size of a gnat compared to her.
"I really am starting to get used to unusual phenomenon. Also, since you're a god, why aren't you in, like, Heaven or something?" Afestus pointed out.
"Ever since that Marduk sliced me in half, I've been stuck here. I found out I was now the most powerful familiar this forest. I waited for a unbelieveable amount of time. I waited for someone worthy of my powers came into existence. That one will be you..." she explained. She managed to circle twice. And that took over five minutes.
She didn't seem the type to hold a steady conversation for very long.
"Me? A-are you sure that would be a good idea?" Afestus stammered.
"Hmm... yes. If you do not prefer this form, I can do this..." Tiamat started glowing and transforming. About a minute of this, a girl looking to be about 20 popped out. Her rack was... um... rather large. Watermelon sized even. She had a little longer than shoulder length black hair. She had blue eyes and had a red tail... she also had rather large red wings. Everything else about her was humanoid looking.
"Oh OK, now I'm a lot more calm. That's a much less intimidating look. No offence." Afestus calmed down a bit less than he let on.
"Excellent. As I said, I wish to be your familiar." she insisted, walking a bit closer to Afestus. They were about three feet away.
"Alrighty then. Rias, how do I sign the pact thingy?" Afestus asked dumbly. Rias facepalmed.
"Just say "I order you who stands before me to become my familiar. To serve me, to help me, to comfort me, and to keep me safe,"."
"Alright. I order you who stands before me to become my familiar. To serve me, to help me, to comfort me, and keep me safe." Afestus chanted. A green square appeared underneath Tiamat. After that, she smiled.
"It will be a pleasure working with you." she said before disappearing.
"Well... That's a score." Afestus started walking to the others.
"You've just gotten the bestest friend, I hope you aren't a fiend." the familiar dude ATTEMPTED to rhyme. Everyone heard Afestus groan loudly and say "THAT DOESN'T RHYME!"
"Well, I have to say, you did hit the motherload there." Kiba somehow managed to remove some of the awkwardness and change the topic in one fell swoop.
That takes skillz, dedication.
And lots of yogurt.
"Yeah. I think she'll prove very useful in the coming battles." Afestus answered, smiling.
A few minutes later...
Afestus is bored, and decides to pull out his Ipod. He brought it with him from his realm. He had his Ipod and charged in his pocket because he stayed up late at a mates house and was to tired when he got home to take it out of his pocket. He scrolls through the sextillion (not really) songs he has. (Yeah, sextillion is a amount.) He decided on his favorite non-vocal rock song.
Hell March 3. (I had to pull a reference to my favorite RTS game of all time.)
When the song started everyone turned to him. He had a grin on his face and he had his eyes closed. He also stopped walking.
"HE HO HA... HEY HUT!" Then, and only then, did the song kick off. Everyone was stunned for a second. After about 3:30 of that, he started walking forward like nothing had happened.
"What? Ever heard a rock n' roll song before?" Afestus asked, turning around to look at them.
"I have, just not without lyrics..." Kiba confessed.
"Anyway, let's get going," Afestus started walking away...
I am not explaining what happens because the rest is the same as the anime, and plus my PC had a heart attack and deleted what I wrote for it.
In the end, Asia got a blue dragon fwend, Issei got nothing, and all the girls had their clothes burned away by green slime from space. Afestus also senses something in Koneko. Something she's keeping secret from everyone... and he's determined to find out.
That evening, when everyone was about to leave, he pulled Koneko away from the rest to see about the power...
"Koneko, recently, as my powers have been growing, I've been sensing something. I've been sensing you and something you're trying to keep secret from everyone." Afestus began. When he said "powers", Koneko visibly flinched. When Afestus stopped talking, she was shaking slightly.
"I don't want to pry, but I just was curious. If you don't want to tell me, that's fine." he started walking away when something grabbed his hand. He turned around to see Koneko with her face down enough that her hair shielded her face.
"...I think it is time I shared it. It's started to become a big burden.." she said quietly. All of a sudden, two white cat ears and a white tail appeared.
"Y-you're a furry?" Sometimes, Afestus thanked his geekiness for anime.
"Furry? No, a Nekomata.." she explained.
"Also, whats a furry?" Koneko added.
"In my world, any human with cat or wolf like features in anime, like tails and ears." Afestus went on to explain.
"...Oh..." Koneko sighed.
"Why did you keep this a secret, if you don't mind me asking?" Afestus inquired.
"Well, I'm apart of a very rare species called the Nekomata. I'm one of the specials called Nekoshou. The only other is my sister, Kuroka, who is Satan knows where right now." Koneko explained in a pained voice. Her tail was drooping and her cat ears were down.
'Cute'
[Oh yes. I've never seen one before.. They say that Nekomata are so rare, that only two are left. The one standing before you and her sister.]
{I never knew a human-like cat species was even possible...}
'Well you learn something' new every day, Tiamat.'
{Good point}
"Well, alright then. It's good to talk about it, and if you wish, we can rid you of said burden tomorrow when every comes in. But, if you wish to keep this secret between the both of us, I will respect that." Afestus said smiling. Koneko pirked up a bit.
"Really?" she was shocked slightly. 90% that he wasn't freaking the fuck out, and 10% him not FREAKING THE FUCK OUT!
"Yeah!" he exclaimed.
After that conversation, the two went to their living quarters. (I like fancy words, sue me. N-not really...) Afestus settled down for the night. He was blissfully unaware that a new threat was close at hand. How would he deal with it? By THRUSTING ON HIS MAN PANTS, AND GO MINING FOR SOME COURAGE! Least, that's my way of dealing with unwanted shit.
8 hours latur.
"YAAAAAAAWNNNNNNN!" Everyone thought Afestus yawned like Chewie from Star Wars back in his world. He didn't have time to think about that. It was 9:00 A.M. there and he was ready to get the day going. After getting some coffee, some bacon and eggs along with some milk, he headed to the Occult Research Club.
"Yours truly has arrived!" he declared, stepping inside. He noticed everyone was here.
Only problem?
We had two extras.
"Uh, WHO YOU?" Afestus freaked a bit.
"Hai! I'm Idina and this is Xenovia! I'll let Xenovia explain." The bubbly one said. Bubbly, and blue haired one with one green lock named Xenovia. Irina had the hair color of gold sand and had two long pony tails coming from the left and right sides of her head. They were both wearing white cloaks with the cross on the front.
"So you're the Sky Dragon Emperor wielder? I'm not impressed." Xenovia implied.
"One does not need to look impressive nor intimidating, for I want neither." Afestus said intelligently. Even Xenovia was taken aback by his reply, expecting him to be as stupid as Issei.
[That's got to be on of thee most intelligent comebacks I've heard out of the two hosts I had before...]
{Yes, very well done, Afestus...}
'Aww, thank you. I try.'
"You weren't that smart before. What changed?" Issei questioned.
"Come on, give me some credit. I don't just sit around eating popcorn and watching movies all day. Most of the time I'm in my backyard, wrecking shit!" Afestus exclaims, earning a facepalm from Issei.
"So, lemme guess, the Church's finally caught up with us." Afestus guessed.
"No, our only purpose here is to tell you Devils to stay out of our way." Xenovia informed, eyeing Issei specifically.
"Oh? Is that all?" Afestus countered.
"We want to be cautious that you do not join the Fallen Angels." Idina added, sitting down next to Xenovia, who was sitting on the couch.
"For the last time, we don't ever plan to join the Fallen Angels." Rias informed for the last time.
'This conversation is boring, anyone in here?'
[Uh huh]
{Yes}
'Oh thank fuck, this conversation is so borrriinggg...'
{You'd best pay attention. This involves you as much as it does everyone else here}
'Fine Mom, I gotcha.'
{I've never been called Mom before...}
'Seriously?'
{Yes. I've never had children before, so that explains that}
'Alright. I'm going to start paying attention.'
Back in reality, Xenovia had just insulted Asia and Issei got all up in her case. After that, they left.
"AHEM!" Afestus cleared his throat very loudly indeed. Everyone turned around to look at him.
"I have something to tell you. Or rather, Koneko has something to announce..." Afestus noticed Koneko pale. She walked up next to Afestus and showed them. She allowed her ears and tail to show. Everyone gasped.
"She's a Nekoshou, or more specifically, a Nekomata. I believe she hid it from everyone because she didn't want to be shunned..." Afestus clarified. Koneko nodded. She looked sad about it.
They were met with many different emotions
Issei was screaming cute, Kiba was smiling, Asia was jealous (lol) and Akeno and Rias were shocked a bit but went over to Koneko and hugged her.
"Don't keep stuff like that hidden from us. We won't shun you for that." Rias said warmly, which got the first smile Afestus ever saw from the girl.
After all that happened, everyone was kinda doin' their thing. Kiba was outside, practicing with his swords, Asia was talking with Issei about something or other, Akeno and Rias were dealing with other stuff and Koneko was sitting cat style on Afestus's lap. He was napping, mind you.
All of a sudden...
"SNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOREEEEEEEEEE!"
That single snore shook the entire building. Everyone looked at Afestus, who was leaning back on the sofa, snoring his face off.
On another note, Koneko was actually very grateful for Afestus. He managed to get one helluva burgen off her chest. After he helped her figure out her Neko problem. For that, she is grateful to him. Why do you think she's sitting on his lap? This was pretty much most of the day.
The next day...
Afestus, Koneko and Kiba were walking through the town for... reasons.
"I wonder where Xenovia and Irina went off to yesterday." Afestus wondered aloud.
"I don't really know." Kiba replied. Suddenly, they noticed two very similar looking robes...
In a restaurant...
Irina and Xenovia were eating like they never have eaten before.
"Uh, what were you doing out there?" Afestus sweat dropped.
"Irina spent all our money on some painting." Xenovia said between mouthfuls.
"Ah... That explains why you were quote on quote "begging" for money." Afestus smirked.
"It's not wise to make enemies out of us." Xenovia threatened.
"Then you remember I have the Zodiac Gear and Tiamat, the five headed dragon god." Xenovia and Irina both choked on their food.
"You don't mean THEE Tiamat?!" the two asked in unison. Afestus leaned forward and whispered.
"I shit you not. I would show you, but if I did, she would murder me for that." Afestus leaned back. Xenovia and Irina looked at each other.
"Anyway, you're welcome for the food." Afestus said through his teeth.
"OH! Thank you!" Idina smiled. Xenovia just nodded.
"Hm mh." Afestus nodded in half satisfaction.
"Now... why I came to you today was for two reasons. I have already done the first, now the second. We wish to help you destroy the Excaliburs." Afestus said, getting serious.
"What?" Xenovia put her glass of water down. Xenovia had her hood up, protecting every part of her face except her right eye. Idina had her hood down, however.
By the fountain where Issei was originally murdered in the Anime...
"Why do you want to help us?" Xenovia asked, removing her hoodie.
"In case you haven't realized already, Kiba has a hatred for them from childhood. Ha, I wasn't paying attention that first time we met at the Occult Clubroom and I was napping while you were fighting." Afestus rubbed the back of his head and grinned. All of them sweat dropped.
"At any rate, we just wish to help you." Afestus reminded.
"Alright then. Meet us at the old church on the outskirts of the town." Xenovia said nonchalantly.
"Really? Just like that?" Koneko mumbled. Thanks to Afestus's dragon ears, he heard it. He put his hand on her head and patted it slightly. She looked up at him, who was still looking at Xenovia. Idina noticed this. No one else did. Koneko was blushing a bit.
"We can't take on all of them alone. We have a 30% chance of surviving this." Xenovia mumbled to Idina.
"Yeah, but we accepted those terms before we came here." she mumbled back.
"A 30% fatality rate for this mission? That will easily be reduced by allying with us." Afestus attempted to persuade.
"I suppose that is true, especially with the Sky Dragon Emperor on our side." Xenovia contemplated.
"I suppose that works. Head to church outside of town tonight and we'll discuss more." Xenovia and Idina walked away.
Alright, let's see how long this was... Just over 3,000 words. NICE! Well, sorry for not uploading for awhile. CYA!
