The True Dragon of Dragons

Chapter 5: Recovery and Revelation

''This must have been one powerful creature to had done so much damage...'' spoke Michael, Archangel, Leader of the Seraph and current God of Heaven. The blonde stood atop the ruined cliff-side that had been a battleground not too long ago. His eyes turned surveying the damage of the epicenter of what was once a battlefield. In all honesty seeing all the destruction painfully reminded him of the Great War and the destruction is caused all over the three realms. Seeing this reminded him of that fact which made it all the more concerning that there was something out there that held this level of power to cause such destruction.

''Indeed, but I can say it proved something...don't you see Michael...this...thing was fended off by Gabriel, Sirzechs and Baraquiel, three people of three different races that have been at war for many millenia. It just goes to show that maybe there is hope for peace between us?'' another man spoke at his side and if it were any other situation he and Michael would be seen as enemies right then and there. The man in question had the appearance of a male in his twenties with black hair and golden bangs in the front along with facial hair. This man was Azazel, current Governor General of the Fallen Angel Race and of the Grigori organization.

Michael seemed to ponder on Azazel's words with a hum, ''That may be, Devil, Angel and Fallen Angel for the first time actually worked together to face a threat to them all. It is a very rare occurrence that much is certain and it may as you say, prove something for us all in the future. But as of now we have much more important matters to deal with, don't you agree?'' he said causing Azazel to nod in agreement. Their eyes took in all the damage for as far as the eye could see and they knew it was still nothing compared around the globe.

''True, I'm getting reports of mass hysteria across the Earth about those that captured the explosion in the earths atmosphere. We're doing what we can to erase all evidence and memories of it from the eyes of humans. But it is proving to be a taxing effort nonetheless.'' he said with a sigh causing Michael to chuckle a bit. ''I see, well I can send out a few of my own to help ease this burden, this is after all an international incident of the supernatural world, and humans have no need to be apart of it.''

''Agreed, and you can expect our help as well.'' they heard a voice both turned to see Sirzechs Lucifer walking up to them, but along with him was Serafall Leviathan another of the current generation of Satan's. Serafall had the appearance of a young beautiful woman with long black hair which was tied in twin ponytails. Her sapphire blue eyes were taking in all the damage that had been caused by the battle with slight amounts of awe and curiosity. She had a healthy pale complexion and a child-like body, but had a good ahem sized bust. She wore a black long sleeved button-down dress shirt with a pink ribbon tied around her neck which was under the flipped down collar of her shirt. Finally below she wore a black skirt that went just above her knees, crew length socks and black dress shoes.

Azazel and Michael's brow querked up in surprise which Sirzechs caught and he smiled, ''Ah, as you said this is an incident of all the three factions and I will take full responsibility on the devils behalf.'' he said, although the two caught something in his tone that made them suspicious. It was as if he was hesitant about something yet didn't let it show on his face the slightest.

''I see, we welcome all the help we can get, but I'm surprised you're up and about. You three did just fight whatever it was and while you don't have any physical injuries I wager it was still an exhausting one.'' Michael said only to get a slight laugh from Sirzechs that it before they looked towards Serafall who seemed a tad drawn by all the damage that was done around the,. ''And it's a surprise to see you here as well, Leviathan-san, I wager Sirzechs contacted you and the other Satan's about the situation?''

Serafall upon hearing Michael turned to the Archangel and let out a happy smile, ''Yup! But Aju-tan and Fal-tna were too busy and besides I wanted to see what did all this.'' she answered causing the two to nod whilst Sirzechs sighed, that's how she addressed their fellow Satan's, Ajuka and Falbium. Than again that's how she addressed almost everyone.

But looking around them the four took in the barren broken battlefield, all the damage and destruction caused by the battle was being repaired by a joint-effort. Surprisingly consisting of Angel's, Devil's and the Fallen Angels of the Grigori Organization. They were doing the repairs, returning the landscape back the way it once was and the though they were still enemies it was still a sight to see. All of them working together towards one goal.

The group of four walked through surveying the damage done as Michael questioned Sirzechs, ''So, is there anything you can tell us about what you, Baraquiel and Gabriel faced out here? For whatever it was, I could feel it's power from the even the Heavens itself.'' he asked causing Azazel to nod agreement. ''Same, and I'm sure many others did as well, the Underworld's sky was even started to blacken all across the realm. As if a massive thunderstorm was coming to pass.'' Azazel said with Michael nodding in agreement, the same thing happened to Heaven and while it had passed it still unnerved everyone including himself.

Who had such power to affect the three realms like that?

Sirzechs seemed to sigh, ''Honestly I am not entirely sure myself where it came from, because all I remember was that it appeared just after a massive roar erupted from this area. The shockwave alone was just staggering and afterwards a pillar of crimson energy exploded out from the cliff-side and it was than it appeared. It didn't just appear out of thin air though, it grew into that state. At first it looked similar to those of the Monkey Youkai where Sun Wukong originates, but the appearance of this thing was far too different to be apart of them. What we fought was this creature, about the size of 100 feet tall or more so, it resembled a ape yet had different characteristics of different parts of the simian species.'' he explained to them causing them both to look at him surprise.

From what Sirzechs just said, this thing was an Ape like giant/titan creature with characteristics of other simians. And going from what they could see and felt it held an enormous amount of destructive and raw power. Unknown to them Serafall's eyes lightened up at this bit of information before she began to ponder on this herself.

'Hm~ So a Saru-chan did this? But where did he go~?'

Her unasked question was answered as Azazel asked Sirzechs, ''And how did it escape you three? I mean not to sound rude, but there was you, Baraquiel and even Gabriel fighting this thing. What stopped you from defeating or capturing it?'' he asked, only to their shock and Serafal''s increasing interest they saw a haunted look appear in Sirzech's eyes at that moment.

''I am not sure myself Azazel, one moment we were about to clash with it, with some of our strongest techniques. It was charging up a second energy blast, but so much more powerful, dare I say powerful enough to destroy the earth completely. But than it just started beating itself up and than the last thing I saw was a bright blinding flash of light and after that the monster was gone...''

This caused the two to frown in worry, despite the strange actions of the monster in Sirzech's words it was still a troubling creature to be left alive and loose on the world. It could upset the balance of the world with its destructive power. If this creature truly had that much power and left unchecked would prove to be a force to be reckoned with and to be feared. Even now with it gone the Kingdom of Mankind itself was in danger because should it pop up again and in such a enraged state...

The sheer amount of catastrophe would be insurmountable...

Yet Serafall felt a smile come along her face, not one of exuberance nor happiness, but one of just raw excitement. If what Sirzech's just said was right, than this creature was still out there recovering and because of this she was wanting to see it for herself. Not by an enemy standpoint, but as one of pure interest in something that hadn't been seen before just pop up out of nowhere. And right in the middle of human civilization at that, it astounded her just as much as it peaked her curiosity.

Of course she wouldn't say that out loud...

''I see...'' Azazel hummed as the group passed by many of their subordinates that is until Michael spoke up, ''By the way Azazel? Where is Baraquiel? I imagined him to be here to speak more on this creature?'' he asked only to get a shrug from the man, but the frown on his face was evident that he was a bit apprehensive.

''He sent word to me that he was currently with his family, ensuring their safety above all. The man values his families safety before anything else and has been since they've been attacked by a number of those of the church. People that held a grudge against him, due to those attacks and with this arising monster he's keeping their safety at an all time high.'' he answered although his eyes cut towards Michael. The Archangel saw this and knew what the man was implying and he sighed a bit mournfully.

''I recognize this, but I cannot fully control my people like the true God could, you know this. Those that choose to allow their hatred for Baraquiel to extend and attack his family, an innocent woman and child, deserve nothing more than punishment. I can only promise those that do will be excommunicated from the Church and their souls to be sent to purgatory as punishment.'' he said with a rare moment of coldness, speaking with the voice of a Leader. The voice of the Archangel Michael.

Azazel didn't seem fine with just that, but knew that's all Michael could do, it was up to him and Baraquiel to stop those attacks should they get anymore severe. Attacking out of grudge against those you hate was one thing, but attacking the family of your hated target, a family of innocents was something else entirely.

''I guess that's all I can hope for...'' he responded and the four fell into a silence, but Michael's gaze turned and saw Gabriel standing at the edge of the cliff. Just looking out at the the city with an ever present forlorn expression, though she didn't look the least bit hurt by the battle she hadn't spoken a single word since then. It made him wonder what had happened to make Gabriel be so silent. But as he thought about it, how did she end up in this when she was charged with watching over the mortal, Hyoudou Issei?

It was the first time that he he's seen Gabriel ignore everyone even him in favor of being so silent...

'What happened to you, sister?'

Unknown to Michael, Gabriel's mind was far more troubled then he could imagine. The Seraph angel was gazing out to the city, Gion, his home. The city that was the hometown of the one who stole her interest. The city that was nearly destroyed by his very own hands. Her blue eyes once bright and full of life were dull as she watched the forces of angels, fallen angels and devils work tirelessly to repair the damage done and erase the memories of everyone the city of what they witnessed.

But she just couldn't find it in herself to care that much anymore, she couldn't explain it but now that he was gone she just couldn't find herself to care for much of anything. It was as if when he was taken all that she was taken with him. A bitter smile began to make way on her face as she thought about it, yes, it seemed she was starting to realize just how precious he was to her. It was for a few moments that she met him and yet it was enough for her to see what she's read and saw from a distance was all true.

Hyoudou Issei was been a paradox to her, a puzzle she wanted to figure out. He may have lived the life of a somewhat normal mortal, but she had witnessed puzzling things about him others seemed to shrug off. He was born with an abnormal muscular structure that hasn't been seen in all of human history which predated as far she knew the existence of her creator, God's, own existence. There was also the fact that his personality fluctuated between a child and rare instances of something else, someone much older. It was rare, but she had seen one of those instances when he was fighting in the tournament not long ago. It seemed as if something had been bothering him and when she saw it in his form she knew he was intent on ending it quickly before something happened. There was also the fact that she saw that Issei had an abnormal physical growth in physical fitness which she would account to his even more abnormal muscular structure. He also inherited the Legendary Longinus Boosted Gear and the holy sword, Ascalon, two objects that opposed one another in sheer existence.

But the most puzzling and in her mind the most gripping was his eyes, those were not the eyes of a child for they had seen many life and death battles. There was a saying that, The eyes were the windows to ones soul, and Gabriel believed that entirely now that she'd seen it for herself. Issei's soul was scarred and marred, it wasn't pure like a child's should be. It was usually flickering to a gray to a near dark gray and a good amount of scars, deep scars, cut deep into his soul. It's why she wanted to learn more about him, to get to know the human, Hyoudou Issei, and the drive to do so was so strong too.

Yet then the image of his changed form, his roar of agony, hatred, rage and sorrow echoing deep within her ears, his glowing red eyes glaring down at them all, at her, with noting but the intent to kill. It made her want to cry, it really did to see Issei in such a way, she knew it was him because she could tell by his energy and the feel the monster gave off was similar to Issei's. What had caused him to become that? What had sent him off the edge and into the abyss to make him become that destructive monster?

'And who dared to cause him so much pain...' she thought with her frown becoming a scowl, her hand turning into a fist. Emotions swirled up inside her, incredibly dangerous ones surged from within her chest smoldering within her, her soul whispering to find out the one who led to causing Issei so much pain.

If Gabriel had her wings out at that moment she would have seen them flicker on and off from golden wings to jet black...

'But now...he's gone...' she thought, wrapping her arms around herself. The sight of Issei battling against himself, eventually reverting back only for her vision to be blinded at the last second by a bright light. And the last thing she saw was a green skinned humanoid taking Issei right infront of her. It absolutely made her livid to know that Issei was taken from her just after going through what he did. She tried desperately to find out where he had been taken, but his energy signature just dropped off the radar. There was no telling if he was okay, if he was dead, or he was simply be experimented on, she didn't know and she just hoped that he was alive out there. It rekindled her flickering hope that she would see him again and hopefully be able to take a step forward to be at his side this time.

Again if she had her wings out they would be flickering colors again, only it took longer to change back as that single thought lingered in her mind.

Blinking Gabriel toyed with that thought before pushing it away with a slight flush on her cheeks, 'No...no there is no way I'm feeling that way towards him, right? I mean he IS a child...okay maybe not with his soul being far older. But but but...aagh!' the Seraph of Hearts slapped her cheeks to try and rid herself of those thoughts. She couldn't afford to let her rampant thoughts get to her no matter how much they egged at her.

''We found something!'' thankfully she heard a few of Michael's subordinates yell out and she along with the group of four turned to see an Angel waving at them from a wreckage a good bit away. Becoming curious she went along with the others to see the angel working with fellow angels plus a few fallen angels and devils. She, Michael, and the two Satans came upon a wreckage of tree's which were torn asunder, ripped right out of the ground by Issei's transformation. But it also consisted of what was once a foundation, a human building and what they found once the trees were removed was both gut-wrenching and saddening.

Humans, so many humans no matter the age, young and old were everywhere, and all of them were dead. Just by looking at them they could all tell with grim realization that they had been dead for a good while and surprisingly hadn't been killed by the crushing of the trees. But the sight was one of horror, children even were dead seemingly have been crushing by wood or bisected by the waist by snapping wood. It was a sight that made them pale considerably although they had seen their fair share of bloodshed and death, it was still hard to swallow. Especially with the amount of blood and gore covering the area, it was a nauseating and gory sight to behold.

Too many life's were lost here, to many young ones died here before they could experience life...

But something was strange and Serafall made this apparent as she narrowed her eyes, ''Something's wrong here...I sense the lingered presence of stray devils, three distinctive ones. Their old, but they were here...'' she said causing Michael and Azazel's eyes to narrow, but there was two different reactions from Sirzechs and Gabriel.

Sirzech's eyes widened in shock at what he just heard, and upon confirming it for himself his shock just grew. Could it be? The same Stray's he'd been charged to hunt down and kill had done this slaughter? That once growing ember of doubt began to grow once he felt this for himself. He bowed his head a tad with his long red bangs shadowing his eyes. This was something Serafall noticed, but chose to remain silent, thinking it was out of respect for those that were dead.

But Gabriel was a different story, her eyes were wide once she heard that tid bit of information and she silently glanced towards Sirzechs recalling as to why he was sent here in the first place. "I'm here to hunt down a couple of stray devils that have betrayed a number of noble clans, including my own. They escaped the Underworld and were reported to have escaped into this city and I was sent to take care of them personally."

Recalling his words, Gabriel began to piece it altogether and her eyes began to narrow and narrow further and further as she looked at the downtrodden Sirzechs, but before she could speak. She felt her feet hit something and she looked down and what she saw was to her disgust was two blooded stumps that were the head's of humans. However once her eyes adjusted to the lighting her eyes widened in true horror once she recognized these humans. These weren't just any humans, these were Issei's parents! Their faces, ones smiling in pride for their son and happily greeting her with kindess at the tournament were frozen in a expression of utter terror.

'No...please no don't tell me...is...is this what set him off...is this what pushed Issei over the edge?...Oh god Issei...' she easily pieced it altogether. There couldn't have been any other explanation and she trembled once she fully realized the implications of it. The stray devils Sirzechs was supposed to have killed had either attacked this building of humans or tracked down Issei to this location. Waited for him and his parents and they striked, leading to this massacre and the death of his parents. Which led to her realizing one thing...

Issei had witnessed it firsthand and that had been the trigger which set him off, the final push that threw him off the edge and caused him to become that. Salty tears began to form in her eyes once she realized this, but quickly she turn ed her head and wiped them away. She didn't want anyone else seeing her this way.

'But Sirzechs will answer for this one way or another!' she thought, her blue eyes smoldering with a slight golden color which were now discreetly glaring at Sirzechs who felt her smoldering piercing glare and he turned. And his eyes widened once he found Gabriel, Seraph of Hearts, the strongest woman in heaven, glaring at him and if looks could kill he'd be six feet under by now. But than he realized, Gabriel must have realized it as well that the stray devils he was suppose to have killed did this.

'….I really messed up this time...I should have listened, I should have killed those Strays...dammit!'

Gabriel struggled to keep her emotions in check this time, she was truly debating whether to lash out and obliterate Sirzechs with all her power or remain as calm as she could be. Fortunately, she did, realizing that if she attacked him outright it'd land her in trouble with Michael and pointing him out right here wouldn't be a good choice either, with a possible peace could be created with the Three Factions on the rise. It wouldn't look good if she attacked him out of anger for his negligence.

Silently she stewed on this and repressed her raging rage at Sirzechs and tried to look away from him. However a red transportation circle flashed behind them and they turned to see to Sirzech's surprise, his wife Grafiya, but to his worry he saw a pained and saddened expression on her face.

''Grayfia?'' he asked only to see her close her eyes, but her words were enough to surprise Sirzechs, and terrify him even more. ''Sirzechs, I apologize for the sudden arrival, but something has come up...it's about your sister, there is something wrong with her. She's not acting herself...Lord and Lady Gremory have asked you to return as soon as possible.'' she said causing him to stop and look at his wife with a wide eyed gaze.

'Something's wrong with little Ria-tan?! But...I can't just leave this situation alone...' he thought and Serafall saw his inner turmoil and slapped him on the back. ''Go on Sirzechs-chan and make sure little Rias-chan is okay, would be sad if little Sona-chan's best friend is sick. I'll take care of the rest~!'' he looked too Serafall and then to the others and he was a bit relieved to see them give them a nod as well, but he felt a bit uneasy when he saw Gabriel glare daggers his way. Knowing full well why she was angry at him as rightfully she should be.

''Thank you Sera, I bid you all goodbye than, until next time. Now let's hurry Grayfia!'' he said bidding the others goodbye and he and his Queen/Wife left in the same fashion she appeared in. Watching them go, Gabriel glared at where he once stood, adamantly thinking on how she should approach Sirzechs on this topic without accidentally reducing him to a pile of ashes.

Gabriel soon sighed before she looked out once again, at the city of Gion, being repaired and its citizens having their memories wiped of this whole incident. So they wouldn't remember that catastrophe that happened this night.

They would never know the torture of one of their very own, the rage and sorrow of Hyoudou Issei that had nearly wiped out all of earth...

Bringing up her hands she clasped them together in a prayer and looked towards the sky, 'Please, be okay Issei...please!'

If only Gabriel knew, the boy once known as Hyoudou Issei, would return, but not as the person who he once was...

Unknown Location

"Mom Dad! Get out of here! Run away!" Issei shouted in desperate cries, trying in vain to reach his parents who were being cornered by them, those monstrous looking devils. His parents seemed to hear him and turned, but it was far too late. He tried to run, pushing all he had into his little legs, but he wasn't getting anywhere. And he had to watch the devils who struck, cackling in glee as they hacked and tore into his parents.

''Aaahhh!'' his father's pained scream tore into his ears, ripped his heart to pieces. He could feel his soul beginning to wail, his eyes began to swell up in tears at the brutal display. Blood splattered the ground, their limbs being thrown to the wind only to be gorged on by the devils. Then he saw to his increasing terror mother crawling out of the mass of blood and gore, with only one arm and a single eye that was staring at him. Asking him, why why why why.

''I-Issei...sochi...why didn't you save...us...'' she spoke before the the devil put his foot on his mothers head causing Issei's rage to build up to an insurmountable degree. ''Get your filthy fucking feet off her!" he cursed, he screamed out in pure rage, but the devil just smirked wickedly and begin to put pressure on his mothers head.

"No no no no no stop it! STOP IT! STOP IT!''

Crack! Splurch!

His mother's head exploded into blood and gore right before Issei's eyes, the blood of his mother splattered across his face, his eyes widen in horror as he saw the mutilated corpses of his dead parents fill his vision, the smell of blood and torn flesh filled his nostrils and nearly made him churn up and puke. Slowly he looked up at the three Stray Devils. His body beginning to tremble, his eyes starting to dilate, his teeth beginning to lengthen and sharpen.

''Now it's your turn, boy!'' they lunged at his for, but Issei's hand went to his clutching onto his skull and then, only then did Issei feel what self-control he had slip. His black eyes flashed to a smoldering shade of bloody crimson.

"You bastards! You filthy disgraceful pieces of trash! I WILL SLAUGHTER YOU ALL! AAAAAHHHHH!" Issei roared out, his voice altered, no longer was it the same. Becoming deeper and more demonic. His world erupted into a sea of flames, swirling out of him like that of a maelstrom, leaking out from his eyes, nose and mouth. It went catching and gripping onto the devils the intensity of the orange and red flames burning at their flesh and bone and setting their very souls ablaze.

Issei crouched, glaring through the sea of fire gnashing his now fangs at the devils with a level of hatred nigh anyone could understand. His hands cracked and clenched as his hair stood up straight, the fire burned at the very air around him, turning all things to ash. His crimson orbs flashed with anger, hatred and power, pure raw power. Untamed, untapped power that was beginning to crush the devils before him.

How dare these things! How dare they! HOW DARE THEY!

"Die!" throwing his hand he sent out a giant wave of fire onto them which soon fell onto the devils, slamming into the devils silencing their screams as the wave of fire engulfed their bodies. Melting their flesh, causing their blood to boil and blister and turn their bones to ash. Issei watched with a cold satisfaction as their very souls were reduced to ash before him.

It was only then as Issei watched in satisfaction, savoring in the death of those that murdered his parents, standing amongst the sea of fire conjured by just his hate and rage alone that he felt something...

"Wake up, Gaki!"

"Huh?" he turned only to hiss in annoyance as a blinding white light erupted with his world of darkness and fire.

Gasp!

Issei's eyes snapped open and he raised up gasping for air with sweat pouring from his face. Taking a moment to calm himself he began to look around to notice that he wasn't in any place that he recognized. In fact a lot of things in the room he was in was different from he was used. ''W-where am I?'' he didn't expect anyone to answer him, but he was proven wrong when someone did.

''My home...'' turning Issei to his amazement a rather tall figure who was garbed in the strangest of clothing. It looked like man from what he could tell, his clothing consisted of a white robe with a strange red kanji in the middle. On his shoulders a white clothed pointed shoulder-guards with a free flowing white came, while on his feet he wore what looked like orange pointed slippers of some sort. He looked up and was even more surprised to see a withered old wrinkled face of a man with pointed ears, and two antenna like things protruding from his forehead. On his head was a white clothed purple sphere-like object while held in his hand was a long wooden cane. His skin was a dark green with what looked like pink-patches running across his forearms.

Than Issei finally regaiend his voice and the first thing he could say was an intellectual, ''Huh?''

Bravo kid...

The man's beady black eyes narrowed him, looking down at him with no sense of sympathy nor pity, and than he just raised his hand and in a flicking motion, he flicked his finger. And right than Issei felt a good amount of force hit his making him bounce back hitting his head on the wall before he rolled off the bed and onto the floor. Rubbing his forehead furiously he glared up at the man, ''Oi! What the hell was that for?!''

''For being unaware of your surroundings, not noticing me until now, but mostly because I felt like it.'' he said to Issei's annoyance. Clenching his hands into fists he glared at the impassive green man before him with all the anger he could show. He felt his muscles bulge unusually and began to feel power he hadn't once felt, but all he wanted at that moment was to punch something. Knowing that dream wasn't just that, a dream, and this guy hurting him and mocking him just made him angry.

He just lost his fucking parents, he had a right to be pretty pissed!

''Bastard!'' clumsily he jumped out of bed to attack the man, but he easily diverted his attacks with a single hand before he grabbed his offending fist and threw him backwards, out the doorway. He felt his body slam harshly against a pristine square tiled floor, but Issei quickly jumped up only to see the man right infront of him. His eyes widened at the sheer speed of this guy, but he didn't care and he just attacked. No longer in any form or guarded stance, he was just releasing all up his pent up anger on the closest thing possible.

And this guy made it clear how outmatched Issei was...

''Your sloppy, you are letting your emotions cloud your mind, your attacks have no reach nor power behind them. You are attacking like that of a simple sloppy street fighter and not like that of Warrior...'' the green man commented lightly causing Issei to curse before the man diverted his fists before nailed him across the cheek-Gods the power behind it-which sent him flying before his body slammed into the floor cracking and shattering the tiles as Issei slid.

Looking up Issei's eyes were wide as he began to wipe away blood from his mouth, 'What the hell! The power in the punch felt like one of Sairaorg's punches!'

''W-who are you!?'' Issei stood albeit shakily, combined exhaustion and having his senses literally knocked backed into his skull. But the man just ignored him causing Issei to scowl before instinctively sliding into the same stance he used at the tournament. A stance that caused the man's beady black eyes to widen and glow with a sense of familiarity which Issei missed. Narrowing his eyes Issei charged, dashing across the floor at speeds faster than he actually remembered. Crossing the distance he moved, with his leg coming into a sweep, but the man blocked it, but he used the momentum to spin around his head before bringing down his elbow.

Yet again the guy stopped it with his palm, but Issei flipped frontwards and once his feet touched the floor he kicked off cracking the floor in the process. Pushing as much strength into his legs and body he moved like a blur, faster than the eye could see. Throwing out a punch, like expected it was stopped, but Issei spun on his feet and to the mans slight surprise moved left leg into a kick for his ribs.

He missed the slight flick of the mans other hand...

Bam!

A small shockwave erupted from them as Issei's leg was stopped by the man's wooden cane which made Issei's eyes go wide when he saw that. He put all his strength in that kick yet it was stopped by this guy's frail looking cane?

'...This...guy is strong...very strong...' it was a sudden realization Issei felt as he looked up to see beady black eyes which were staring right back at him. Staring at him, through him and reading him as if he were a book. ''...That was better...'' he spoke causing him to blink, but then Issei saw the man's wrist twitch, but he wasn't fast enough to react and than he felt pain erupt from his legs. The wooden cane swooped down knocking him off his legs and making him land on his back. He was about to get up, but he stopped once he felt the cane poking him in the forehead.

''But you still have much to learn...'' the green skinned old man said, looking down at a glaring Issei. Impassively, he pulled up his staff and waited for Issei to stand back up who wiped away his bloody busted lip. But as he caught his breath the man tapped his cane on the floor instantly restoring the floor around him shocking Issei a good deal. However it was not as much a shock as it was made aware of his surroundings. All around him he saw a circular pristine square tiled floor with a few trees and bushes. Along with it to his left he saw a grand building built in a rather unique architecture. He then looked up at the man who than spoke once more, just a few gruff words, but it was enough to surprise Issei nonetheless.

''As for my name, you can call me Kami and this here is my Lookout, take it in for this is going to be your home for the next few years, Hyoudou Issei, Last of the Saiyans.'' he said making Issei's eyes grow wide as shock filled his very being.

Oh yes, things were going to be very interesting for Issei now...


Done! Troublesome chapter I tell ya! I may have lied to myself on how this chapter would turn out, but I wanted to save the other more important matters for the next chapter. Bet you guys weren't expecting Kami now were you?

Of course by now you've probably figured out who it is so meh :\

Gaki: Brat

Sochi: Son

Saru: Monkey

Anyway I'm tired, need to plan for next chapter so until then...

Peace!
