The True Dragon of Dragons

Chapter 4: Chaos Unleashed!

''W-what's happening to this brat!?'' one of the three stray devils spat, the one who punctured Issei through the stomach growled as it used its mantis arms to cover its eyes. The raging howling winds and quaking of the ground was so strong it nearly blew them away after the first initial shockwave. But the winds just kept growing stronger, and the ground was trembling more and more erratic by the second. All because of what happening before the three, the very source of this phenomenon was none other then their very own target.

The supposed human, Hyoudou Issei! The boy was currently engulfed in a pillar of the purest crimson energy, bolts of lightning danced around the pillar which pierced the very sky. The strangest thing was the fact his body was pulsating, twitching and bulging as increasing intervals. His body had changed from his brown hair had turned completely jet black and had spiked up in several directions. With his back to them they couldn't see what was happening to their target, but the occasional grunt and even growl was escaping Issei's mouth.

And was it them or was his left arm glowing an even darker shade of crimson?

The second devil hissed, its snake like lower body a result of abusing its own power causing them mutation in its own body slithered up constricting to the ground in a attempt to her hold. The wind was that fierce and the quaking ground wasn't helping any better. ''How ssssshould I know?! Wasn't this brat ssssupposed to be easy prey?! Did we awaken some kind of Sacred Gear or something!?'' she hissed only too bite back a scream as another pulse rocked the area around them. Sending debris flying as Issei stood within the maelstrom of such chaotic power.

The Leader seemed to be the most shaken and he tried to gather up the least bit of courage he could, but as he looked down at himself his eyes widened in shock. 'My body! It won't stop trembling?! is...is this...fear? Am I...feeling fear...from a human?!' the sheer thought was ludicrous! He was a pure blooded devil from the Bael Clan! He, with the inherent ability of the Power of Destruction! Was scared of a human? Ridiculous! And yet even as he tried to move his body his legs refused to move, his body disobeyed him and refused too move an inch whether to attack or run his body just wasn't listening to him.

So overwhelm with such primal terror the devil along with his comrades was left standing there frozen and completely immobilized by the fear alone. It was only when Issei turned around that they all three devils knew for sure of one thing.

They were gonna die...

For Issei's face was set in an expression of absolute rage, hatred leaked off every part of his boy. The strange crimson power seemed to empower the boy, his body was pulsing and bulging at increasing intervals. His teeth were clenched and to their increasing horror his teeth were turning into fangs! But it was his eyes, all they could see was a pair of blood red orbs baring back at them, such was the intensity of his hate filled gaze the three devils could not do a thing. Their instincts raged at them too run, their souls were screaming to run as fast as they could possibly go, but their bodies just refused to do anything.

''Ggrrrrrr!'' Issei let out an inhuman growl as his voice started growing deeper, his brown tail quivered and moved in accordance to the transformation.

It was at that single moment one thought was racing in the devils mind as the kid, their target, began to grunt more and more. 'W-what have we done...what have we unleashed!?'

Then their world went white as Issei's body expanded ripping his clothes to shreds, his face changing and morphing. Patching of brown fur grew all around his body and face and his body grew and grew, but the transforming boy reared his head and let loose a devastating roar.

''RRRRRRROOOOOOAAARRRRR!'' Issei's roar echoed whilst causing a massive shockwave to erupt from his body. The three devils were the center focus of the roar which resulted in them getting hit by a frontal cone of the shockwave which sent them hurtling through the forests of the outskirts of Gion. Smashing through tree's and mountains the three devils were clearly not be getting back up after taking such an attack.

The roar's effect devastated the town of Gion, the city as a whole was completely unprepared for it, it happened far too fast for them to react. The once cloudy sky rippled and the clouds were torn asunder and the ground beneath their feet rumbled and quaked. Caught unaware they were unprepared for the shockwave that devastated the city in the night. It's blast radius ruptured all throughout the city causing all sorts of damage from toppling vehicles, leveling buildings and for the most unfortunate of souls they blasted clear across the city just by the sheer force of it.

All from a single roar...

The ground trembled as the cliffside in the woods of Gion cracked causing mass landslides, but for Issei he stood there roaring at the sky in his new form. He stood incredibly tall passing just a 100 feet tall, his appearance was akin to that of a Giant Ape only with a more muscular build of that of a gorilla, a baboon shaped head along with its giant swaying monkey tail.

Issei growled before turning its reddened gaze down at the city below him, everything in his path was just an obstacle. Everyone was an enemy, all things had to die! THEY ALL HAD TO DIE!

'Kill...kill...kill...kill...destroy...slaughter...obliterate!' Issei's droned within his mind, his mind no longer in his control. The Giant Ape that was Issei let out another growl, but before it left. It turned its attention to where the devils were blasted off too.

''Graaagghh!'' he howled before opening his mouth only to form a glowing bluish-white sphere within his massive jaws. The energy built up was so great the shockwave of its creation caused the ground to crater. It was only when Issei was about too fire that Gabriel, Baraquiel and Sirzechs arrived at the scene. But it was too late to stop Issei and Gabriel feeling the immense energy welling up in the giant's mouth quickly acted. Turning to the city she channeled her magical power creating a giant golden runic circle to appear. It then shot out a golden beam to the entire city of Gion which soon expanded into a giant barrier that covered all of the city.

''ALL OF YOU GET DOWN!'' she shouted which the two followed his example and just in time as Issei let loose his attack which came in the form of a high density beam. It shot forth easily vaporizing all the mountains and the forests that were in its destructive path. The beam of energy shot toward the location where the devils landed and were still trying to recover. And as the beam zoomed across the forest plains and mountains all things erupted into destruction. It was like a Nuclear Bomb went off as multiple spheres of fire erupted across the path the beam zoomed past.

Leaving a trail of absolute destruction in its wake the beam instantly wiped out all life including the three devils, completely obliterating them from existence. Not even their screams of terror could be heard over the thunderous roar of Issei's attack. It was only after Issei's attack dimmed and ended that the three would able to stand up only too witness the destruction of the giant ape's attack.

''Oh...my...god...'' Gabriel uttered in shock and the other two couldn't blame her, Baraquiel was just as shocked maybe even more while Sirzechs eyes were completely wide at the horrific devastation laid out before him.

What was once a vast plain of mountains and forests was now just reduced too a smoldering plain of dead land, the mountains were vaporized and the forests were turned to ash. Nothing alive remained in the desolate land, but thankfully Gabriel saw that the city was fine from the use of her barrier. ''Oh thank goodness...''

''Grrrr!'' the three however were shaken from their shocked stupor when the ground rumbled and the sound of a deep growl sounded above them. They turned and saw Issei in his giant ape form glaring down at them, no sense of reason in his baleful glowing red eyes.

'Such raw power! It easily dwarfs that of High Class Devils! It's even toppling with my own...no...its...it's getting stronger!' Sirzechs thought with the slightest bit of panic and it seemed Baraquiel noticed the power coming off this monster as well. But for Gabriel whom was staring up into the beasts red eyes felt all doubt that she once had of this not being Issei being thrown to the wind.

No one had that same look, that same primal ferocity and glaze as that single boy...

'Oh...what happened to you Issei...to make you become...this?' the Seraph Angel was terribly saddened once she realized this was indeed the same cheerful boy she talked too not long ago. The very same that had caught her interest the moment he as born. Only now, gone was that happily smiling boy and in its place was a monster of incredible proportions.

What had happened to him?!

''This thing is no devil, is it some sort of Youkai?!'' Baraquiel asked just before the giant growled down at them and then it raised its foot. Knowing what it was about to do Sirzechs spoke.

''Spread out!'' Just in time too as Issei's giant foot came crashing down causing yet another small quake along the cliffside. Much of the ground cracked and some began to slide causing another landslide. Thankfully this time the landslide was halted by Gabriel's barrier.

''Graagh!'' he howled as the three floated in the air, and to their eyes Issei seemed confused as to where they went which gave them enough time to plan.

''I am not sure Baraquiel, it seems similar to the Monkey Youkai where Sun Wukong originates from, but this thing is very different from them. But knowing what this thing is should be the least of our concerns, we saw what it just did and we can't risk that thing unleash another of its attacks.'' Sirzechs said causing Baraquiel to nod in agreement. Although it was a devil he shared the same sentiment, this thing was a threat to the town and to be more specific his family.

Gabriel seemed to be the hesitant one to fight the monster which the other two noticed, ''Oi Gabriel? We may be enemies, but are you gonna help us out or not?'' Baraquiel said only to receive no response from the angel who was solemnly staring down at the beast with sad eyes. ''Oh...Hyoudou...why did you become like this...'' she said causing Sirzechs eyes too narrow once he heard that name.

'That's the second time she's said that name, Hyoudou, is that the name of this creature? And if so how does Gabriel know?' the Super Devil thought to himself for a moment just before the beast finally caught sight of them. With its eyes narrowing in recognition it snarled and went to grab them, ''Raagh!''

''Dodge!'' and they did from the beasts grab, gnashing his teeth Baraquiel let out a roar as he charged his hands with holy lightning. ''Alright you monster have a taste of this!'' he said before he reached forward with both hands and then a medium-sized yellow circle formed. Pushing his magical power into his, Baraquiel channeled his lightning and shouted.

''Holy Lightning: Javelin!'' the circle glowed a brilliant shade of yellow before a giant sphere of pure holy lightning shot forth. The pure magical power in the orb was so destructive, so powerful the sky itself began to darken by the lightning that pierced and rumbled through the sky. The sphere hurtled toward the giant ape whilst Gabriel was about to shot for him to stop.

Only for the beast to narrow its eyes before it brought up its hands and merely clapped both of them together once the orb was within reach.

Boom!

The orb exploded in a ball of lighting, but it didn't seem to faze the beast the slightest. This shocked Baraquiel at seeing one of his best attacks so easily bested by just a simple fucking clap! Sirzechs moved through Issei's attempts to catch him and he flew above Issei and pointed both hands in the air.

''Let's see if you can withstand this, Power of Destruction: Ruin the Extinct!'' above the Satan a medium sized red runic circle appeared which then glowed dark red. Soon enough red spheres with blackish tint began to form some being the size of golf balls and others the size of basketballs. Bringing down his hand Sirzechs frowned down at the beast and willed his spheres too act.

''Go!'' with that command the spheres moved, moving incredibly fast the spheres acted by the movement of Sirzechs hand and as they were about to slammed into the giant's face they quickly spread out. All of them covered the giant beasts surroundings and Sirzechs acted as he willed the spheres to attack. Some moved below the ape and struck jaw exploding upon impact while other impacted with the beasts legs, waist, and torso.

''Did you get him?'' Baraqueil said as the three looked upon the giant pillar of smoke that once stood a giant ape of carnage. However as the ground shifted Sirzech's eyes narrow. ''No...I didn't...'' He was proven correct as the smoke was blown away by the giant's nose. The giant's body was smoking with small patches of its fur burned away, but no lethal injuries were noticeable. Which didn't bode well for Sirzechs as the Satan felt a bad feeling fall in the pit of his stomach.

'That had a good chunk of my demonic power in it and that was The Power of Destruction itself...and this thing is barely even scratched!'

''Sirzechs move!'' Baraquiel said making the redhead blink, but he looked to see the ape about to reach for him yet in the nick of time Gabriel appeared infront of him. Two spears of light in hand which she then threw at both hands they exploded upon which had no visible damage. But it did their job a she pushed Sirzechs aside and she flew away as the ape roared at the two.

''Thanks for the save Gabriel.'' the woman just nodded, but it was apparent to him that she as struggling with something. As if she was hesitant to fight this thing for whatever reason.

Rearing back his head Issei let out another, but much less powerful roar which was aimed at the three that dared to stand in its path. Openly objecting his path, defying him of destroying all that had hurt him! ''Raaaaggghhh!'' the roar caused the ground to rupture and tree's to uproot, but the three supernatural beings were able to hold their ground.

But it was strange to them, especially to both Sirzechs and Gabriel who both noticed that their was something in that roar. Their was the rage, the hatred and anger, but here was also a deep rooted despair and sorrow as well. It was as if the beast in the Super Devils eyes was crying out at an injustice done to it. '….It feels like this thing...is sad...but why? I know I heard it...could...could it have been effected by the stray devils in some way. It did just kill them I am sure...did...did my negligence cause this?' he thought and he truly didn't want to believe that thought, but it was festering at the very depths of his mind.

That this whole thing was his fault...

Gabriel looked upon the sight that had once been Hyoudou Issei and her head lowered causing her blonde hair too shadow her eyes, but it was clear that tears started fall from her face. The level of sadness she felt from that single roar had made her soul tremble. Her will was quivering in hesitance to either fight or find a way to help Issei. But as she looked at the devastation of Issei's attack and the power within it, she knew her barrier would not be able to withstand such an attack.

And the entire city of Gion was full of human lives, hundreds, thousands of people were in that city and currently were all in danger due to an enraged Hyoudou Issei who was clearly not in his right mindset. It was a situation of duty as a Seraph and an Angel, the duty to protect the life's of the many was easily outweighing the life of one.

No matter how much that one life was starting to mean to her...

'I am sorry Issei-kun, but I can't let you harm these people. I can tell you are not in the right state of mind and whatever made you into this must have hurt, terribly so. But...I am sorry...however I have to stop you here!' she thought teas falling, but a determined expression soon appeared. Baraquiel soon shouted over the growling Issei as he began charging Holy Lighting all throughout his body.

''Attack together! We have to defeat or at the least subdue this thing, give it everything you got!'' he said before placing both hands to his sides. They soon formed very large yellow runic circles which glowed yellow. ''Holy Lightning: Twin Spears!'' he said and as the sky darkened to a menacing black two over-sized spears of pure holy lightning formed. The two spears were length of about 50 feet appeared, and they coursed with pure raw Holy Lightning. He lifted his hands and reared his arms back in preparation while Sirzechs gaze narrowed before he put his hands forward and formed the red runic circle once more.

''Very well, Power of Destruction: Obliteration!'' commanding his inherent ability the Satan formed a much bigger and more volatile sphere of red and black demonic energy. It grew and grew till it was 5x bigger than that of Sirzech himself. A bead of sweat fell from his face as he controlled the chaotic energies built up in this sphere, but then he raised his hand and clenched it. This caused the sphere to compress itself, smaller and smaller till it reached the size of a basketball, but the backlash of it caused a shockwave around him.

'Thankfully we're targeting the beast away from the city and all that's behind him in just empty land for miles on end. Good thing too, I haven't used this technique for a good few centuries and the destructive capabilities of it are...truly out of this world.'

Powering her hands Gabriel flew above the two so she was infront of the monster's snarling face, her determined azure blue orbs bore back into glowing hate filled blood red orbs. She than reached out with both hands up into the sky and soon all of the sky was becoming filled as a giant golden runic circle that began to light up the whole area around them for miles on end.

Divine Art: Heavenly Sword!'' she said, and soon that giant mega circle glowed gold before a single giant sword made of pure holy energy was assimilated. It's size easily matched Issei's own and it's power was tremendous, splitting the very sky and sundering the very atmosphere of the earth itself. It's brilliant shade of gold and white illuminated the skies and much of the planet itself, from even outer space a brilliant spark of light could even be seen.

But it was the combined presences of all three supernova attacks that was effecting the area, the sky was jet black, and the wind howled in agony at all three powers being used. The already ruined cliff-side was growing increasingly unstable by the major power output of all three legendary figures.

Issei in his unconscious yet instinctive state of mind could feel the threatening pressure of all three attacks, they were gonna try and hurt him! Stop him from killing all those that had hurt him! No! His inner demon, the inner beast dwelling within his primal blood roared defiance. Pulling up its massive arms Issei rose too the challenge by beating his chest, like that of a true gorilla.

''Raaarrggh!'' roaring out in defiance, the giant ape surged out, gathering up all the energy that coursed through its being, pulling the powers from its very soul the beasts body soon exploded into a pillar of blood red energy. His stomach bulged before the bulge went to his cheeks causing them to expand too great proportions. His giant maw cracked open letting out wisps of smoke, but then its mouth began to open more revealing that it was building up another one of his destructive energy beams.

But this was one different, instead of the white bluish energy it once was, this one was just dark crimson with a blackish hue. The sheer destructive power of it alone made all three begin to swear nervously at the sheer density of that power. It easily made his last one pale considerably in comparison.

''Grrr!'' the giant ape let out a low growl as the energy built up within its jaw began to flicker whilst his body prepared itself to fire. So too did the three of them, but just as they were about too do it and undoubtedly caused an uncountable amount of damage...

The giant apes eyes widened before it's left arm completely out of nowhere came nailed him in the chin causing the beam to fire prematurely. The ground shattered as a giant crimson beam of pure destruction shot up into the sky. Easily piercing the atmosphere, the beam continued on before it imploded far above them all. For miles and miles on end the once blackened sky was instantly cleared as a massive explosion of light rocked the very planet. It's rays of destruction reached far and wide, across the sea's and reaching other continents.

''W-what the?'' Baraquiel stuttered in shock and the other two couldn't blame him either, while they were still ready to unleash their attacks they were also still shocked at what they just witnessed. It happened right out of nowhere, but just as Issei was about to unleash complete chaos upon them his own arm acted and hit him square in the jaw with the seemingly intent to divert the attack from them.

Gabriel remained determined, but the smallest flicker of hope flickered in her eyes, maybe...just maybe Issei was showing sighs of gaining control? Maybe this was him trying to fight back?

What none of them knew though was that the cause of this was something much deeper and much more serious than they could have possibly imagined.

For deep within Issei's inner mind, down into the depths of his soul, the Heavenly Welsh Dragon, Ddraig, in all its blood red glory growled and snarled at the other entity residing within its partner's soul. Ever since he lost contact with Issei he had been doing all he could to control the mass outbreak of Issei's powers he once had in his first life. That had gone fairly well, but the eruption of his emotional trauma combined with the unleashing of Alien Heritage tripped his control by the slightest margin which had caused an anomaly.

Said anomaly was staring back at him with blood red eyes and it's menacing growl that didn't even affect the Ancient Dragon the slightest. It was the same form Issei had turned into when he looked at the full moon and so far he'd been wrestling over control of Issei's power and help his partner break free of his enraged primal state. Which wasn't easy considering this thing was monstrously powerful and its strength was equal to its endurance.

This was from Ddraig's guess the representation of Issei's alien heritage...

But soon Ddraig growled, ''I will not let you control Issei anymore you wretched cur! I will not let you have Issei destroy his own world! The regret he would suffer would be immeasurable! So bear witness, your doom, monster!'' roaring out Ddraig flew head on colliding with the beast and soon his whole body coiled around the ape. His tail tying up the apes own tail and legs together. Wrapping his arms around the ape he enclosed his wings around him and the ape and went for its throat.

''And by my name as the Red Dragon Emperor, I will take you down! Grraaaaaa!'' and he struck his massive fangs dug into the apes neck and held on with a steel like clench. The beast roared in pain and it struggled to break free, but Ddraig's determination to break Issei free of this things instincts was far too strong. He was determined to save his partner, to help his nakama at all cost!

Whatever that cost may be...

Tearing into the apes throat Ddraig let it loose and roared within the depths if Issei's soul as his body began to glow from red to a dark crimson. ''Raaaaaarrgghhh!''

Outside World

''Raaaggh!'' The Great Ape roared before its left arm came back swinging nailing himself in the face once again. It soon followed up with punch to its abdomen causing it growl before it turned its gaze on its own arm. Growling it went and bit onto its forearm drawing blood and crushing bone, but the arm continued on by ramming its fit into the apes skull. Dazed by the hit the ape stumbled and began to fall off the cliff, luckily on the opposite end of Gion.

''I-It's hurting itself...'' Sirzechs commented as they watched the beast literally attack itself and it seemed whatever had come over the beast was winning. It was causing more self-injuries than any of them had been able to do. They had long dispersed their attacks due to the area becoming increasingly more unstable by the combined pressure of the attacks and the premature release of the beasts own attack.

''Indeed, whatever is happening its helping us immensely...but be wary of-Wha Gabriel what are you doing?!'' Baraquiel shouted as he and Sirzechs saw the angelic woman fly down too where that beast had fallen down at. But neither of them could understand the maelstrom of emotions going through Gabriel at the moment who was watching The Ape fight itself more more intensely.

Nay they couldn't understand her worry, her hope, her sorrow and sadness for the boy that was inside that monster that was chaos incarnated. Despite her little time in spending with him physically, she knew that spiritually the boy had a kind yet scarred heart. His very existence piqued her interest, and his troubled soul had warranted her attention more than once. His eyes were seasoned like that of a warrior that had fought plenty of Life and Death battles. Eyes like that did not belong with a child his age, and yet when she saw his eyes it was like she was looking into a beacon of hope that she had long since thought had died when her father, God was killed.

And now that she saw him, Issei, in such pain, so much pain to have triggered this strange transformation tore at her heartstrings. The tears came freely as she saw such a kind soul be reduced to such a state, filled with so much pain and anguish.

The ground rumbled as she set foot a few good feet from the struggling Great Ape, it was currently fighting against itself, but it was futile. Soon enough its right arm acted against the apes will and started pulverizing its face while the left had the ape in a choke hold. Gabriel felt both Baraquiel and Sirzechs come down as they watched the beast literally destroy itself by some unknown force.

But than something strange began to happen, before their very eyes the Ape began to stand up, but it was gripping its head. It let out grunts and growls as its nails dug into it's bloodied skull it stumbled forward and back again as its grunts turned into snarls. But then it reared back its head and let out a roar.

''RAAAAARRRGGGHHH!''

Thankfully the three were prepared to keep themselves stable on the ground, but they watched in alert as the beast's body erupted into a familiar pillar of crimson energy. Yet shockingly enough the crimson energy began to change, the crimson hue began to turn darker, but it was the Apes own body that shocked them.

For it was changing...

The brown fur surrounding its body was starting to turn different colors, from a dark brown to black and then a deep shade of dark crimson and the changes went all the way to its tail, it's ears became more pointed and its fangs were turning into much fiercer and more defined fangs. It's blood red eyes were wide open, but they were slowly flickering to a shade of emerald. The changing Ape's body soon exploded again with its energy soon melding with its body creating a crimson blazing aura engulfing all of its body, like a cloak of crimson and gold fire.

It was magnificent yet terrifying at the same time...

For the sheer magnitude of power coming from the Ape now...it was too much...far too much...

'This level of power...it exceeds my true form in sheer quantity!' Sirzechs thought with increasing apprehension and the slightest bit of fear in his normally calm blue-green eyes. He could feel a bead of sweat trail down his face as all three of them were pressed down by the megaton of power coming off the ape.

'….You're fighting it! FIGHT IT! Fight it Issei-kun! I know you can overcome this!' Gabriel thought as she watched the transforming Ape that was Hyoudou Issei continue to struggle. And as if her thoughts were answered the beast started roaring before it's whole body started to glow completely crimson. It's body began too shrink down and down until it was becoming a humanoid shape and too Gabriel's happiness she could faintly see the characteristics that made Issei.

However that brief moment of joy was soon shattered when a powerful booming voice echoed all across the battlefield.

''Solar Flare!''

''Huh?'' alerted the three looked up only to see a blinding white light sear into their eyes causing them too quickly cover their gaze from the blinding white light. ''W-what's with this light?! Is it an ambush?!'' They could hear Baraquiel shouting, but none could do nothing as they were temporarily blinded by the surprise attack.

However Gabriel felt a presence appear where Issei was and fearing the worst she turned and despite her pain tried too stop whoever it was that was reaching Issei, her body reacted on instinct. But all she saw as her eyes opened was a humanoid figure with green skin, beady black eyes staring down at her before whatever it was disappeared.

And her outstretched hand grasped at nothing but air...

''No!'' and at that moment as the light died down and the devil and fallen angel were able to see again, all they saw before them was a giant empty crater where once stood a Giant monstrous Ape and a currently tearing up Gabriel.

That would be the last time Earth would ever see the former mortal, Hyoudou Issei, for a good long time. But the scars left in his wake shall forever be remembered in the hearts and minds of those of the supernatural. None had been left unscathed, Earth had not been the only one shaken by the release of such cataclysmic power. So much power that it threatened to destroy the earth itself.

For all the realms had felt that monstrous power...

But there was an even greater special happening that was happening in all the realms and they were all linked...to Hyoudou Issei...

Underworld-Gremory Castle

Venelana Gremory sighed sadly as she sat at a bedside, worry marring her beautiful features, her flaxen long hair was disheveled from being a nervous wreck. Her blue-green eyes were filled with panic and worry as they looked upon the trembling and whimpering mess that was her pride and joy. It was of a girl around 6 year's of age with long crimson red hair with her eyes and features, but currently her eyes were closed and the child's face was scrunched up as if she were in some type of pain.

''Oh Rias, my dear, what is wrong...you won't wake up and yet your in so much pain...please...open your eyes for mommy...please...'' tears began to leak from the woman's eyes as her words were unanswered yet again. Her daughter, her beautiful little girl just kept trembling, tossing and turning in bed. She'd been doing this for a good three hours straight and it seemed to happen at that exact moment when that huge immeasurable power came down upon all of the Underworld and its denizens.

That's when she broke into this state...

''Oh Rias...please come back to us, come back to your family.'' she said while trying too soothe her daughter with all the motherly affection she could give.

But the pain Rias Gremory was feeling at the moment ran far deeper than Venelana could imagine, it was the pain of the soul itself.

Within the mind of said Rias Gremory, the little girl was panicking as all around her was just a sea of fire that never seemed to stop burning. However in the middle of it all she stood alongside a man with brown hair and brown eyes. She knew this man, his appearance brought her the strangest amounts of joy. Yet the dull lifeless glaze in his brown eyes was making the young Gremory heiress cry amist the sea of fire.

''Why...why is this happening...why am I seeing these things! Why...do I know you!?...Issei...-kun...these memories...I don't!'' she struggled to speak as she gripped her head. She clenched her eyes shut and tried to block out all sound as her mind was bombarded with memories of this man beside her. Memories she had never experienced came flooding throughout her body and into her brain. All the joy, happiness, and love she felt through the memories came flooding back.

These couldn't be her memories and yet she saw someone that looked like her, no it was her going through so much with this man, Issei.

''I-Issei!'' she shouted out in desperation as her eyes popped open only too her horror she saw the Issei before her turn too her, his cold, dead brown eyes staring back at her. But then he just combusted into flames. But before she could even utter a word the flames swirled into a giant mass that soon formed a monstrous visage that resembled something akin to the deepest darkest creatures of the abyss.

''NOOOOOOOOOO!'' Rias screamed as all she knew, all she loved was consumed by fire...

But in was on the outside that she blearily woke up to see her mother's worried gaze, but all she could mutter was just a few short words before tears began leaking from her eyes. ''Issei...Issei...no...don't...die...''

I'll admit this chapter gave me a lot of trouble since I didn't want to go overboard with the destruction of that battle. After all Issei wouldn't be able to forgive himself if he wiped out his hometown if not the whole Earth now would he? I've set up what I wanted and that's all well and good, but I need to cement just how serious the power Issei was getting actually was.

He had the powers of Ddraig, Ophis the Dragon God of Infinity, a piece of Great Red's power THE Dragon of all Dragons. Plus his Alien heritage (Saiyan) now being unleashed upon him and that is ALOT. Add that with his emotional trauma at seeing his parent's dead before him and seeing the full moon...yeah...

So power wise at that point in time Issei DID have the power to wipe out all of Earth but thankfully Ddraig intervened when he did. But I will say this even though he has all that power he's gonna need to learn how too control it he won't be instantly Godlike now...no...he's gonna train and train...and TRAIN his ass off.

Now with that out of the way, if you have questions leave them in a review and I'll answer them to the best of my ability.

Constructive Criticism is always appreciated!

Peace!

Chapter 5: Recovery and Revelation
