Present Day

Interview with the Gremory peerage (records)

"What is your opinion on my son?" A man asked, as he sat on the sofa.

"Issei Redgrave, is a charming man, but in battle..." Rias said, drifting off remembering the Rating Game, seeing how he walked carelessly, cracking a chestplate with his foot as he walked. "... He scares me."

"His overwhelming power, it makes me shiver in a pleasant way, wondering how he would ravage me on the battlefield, and under the sheets, ufufu..." Akeno answered, a perverted smile decorating her face as she licks her fingers, thinking of how his enemies ran away from him in the church.

"Scary..." said Koneko, the fear of the memory of his conflictive life force making her whimper, while Rias tried to calm her down by gently rubbing her back, as well as giving her a small bag of candy. Looking out the window, Kiba answered:

"Many wonder what his thoughts consist on, let alone his origins. How he manages to gain the favoritism of several, while striking fear in others, is beyond what I can come up with," the Knight of Gremory answered, thinking briefly, before continuing. "That day, with Raynare..." he drifted off once more, remembering how three bullets went through her head, all in a single-file line. "...Was fast, she never had the chance to strike back. Still, I would spawn every sword I can come up with and hand them over to Issei, with the sole intention of finding out how that duality came to be."

"Well, let me shed some light upon the issue," he said, smiling, before he told the story of how his son became to be.

Hospital of Kuoh

17 years ago

Interviewer's POV

The hospital in the middle of the night is calm, to be honest.

"Ah, end this fucking pain already!" A woman yelled at the top of her lungs.

Well, almost always calm. My wife was in labor, and she had managed to break my hand by squeezing it after a considerable amount of time. You might think I'm exaggerating, but it's a descendant of an Umbra Witch and a Lumen Sage, so it's the least you could expect.

"We're almost done love," I said, as I looked at my broken hand.

"'We're'? I'm the one pushing, although I wish- IT COULD FUCKING END, JUBILEUS DAMN IT!"

"Hey, I can see the head, Bayonetta," I said, as my wife pushed harder. It took several minutes, but she did it: she managed to give birth to a child... only for it to be revealed that it wasn't the only child, there was another one. We called them Rosa and Issei respectively, and now as the Redgrave family, we were ready for this new step.

4 hours until the Rating Game between the Gremory peerage and the Phenex peerage

Our favorite redhead knocked on the door, only to be greeted by a beautiful teen of 17 years old. This teen's hair was black, and it reached right above her hips.

"Who are you looking for?" the black-haired teen asked, looking at Rias.

"We're looking for Issei Redgrave," the Gremory heir answered, before the teen who received Rias stepped aside, letting her and the rest of her peerage enter. After being told where Issei's room was, they went up the stairs, opening the door. What they saw was a spacious room, one that was bigger than the room appeared to be on the outside. The room had two sofas, a big flat screen television, several game consoles, and a sofa that was part of a Murphy bed, said bed being in its wall position, as to give more space to the bedroom/game room. And in the room was their target, having a make-out session with a woman that got Koneko nervous.

"Alright, what brought Wendy Thomas and her friends to me?" Issei asked, smirking. Brown hair, gray eyes, and fashionable clothing adorned the young man, as he looked at the woman who lead the group into the room.

"Why did you interrupt us, nya? I was going to convince him to have kittens with me, nya," the woman who now sat beside Issei asked, a black-haired Nekomata of hazel gold eyes in a black kimono and a yellow obi.

"We want you, Issei Hyoudou, to help us in the Rating Game tonight," Rias answered, in a polite manner.

"Oh really? Last I recalled you wanted to resurrect me after taking no action in what you thought would be an execution by Raynare's hand, although the only thing she kissed were three bullets. Also, I do recall your brother fearing my mother," he said, before pecking Kuroka's lips.

"I do apologize for the first part, and..." she said, drifting off before she briefly saw a trophy case that contained many items, one disturbing Kiba, only for the Knight of Gremory to calm down thanks to Akeno. She then continued, "... You may be wondering what you will get from all of this."

"Aren't you the business woman..." he said, as he put Kuroka on his lap, scratching behind her ears as he heard her purr.

"Well, you, get to take down a peerage, which includes their King, Riser Phenex," Rias said, hoping it worked. As she waited for an answer, Issei began to think of the addition that could form part of his trophy case, one with items of his best victories: weapons, jewelry, artifacts, and so on.

"Tell me, at what time do I get to begin the onslaught?"

And we've got a chapter! Hey there, AV once more, and I want to make it clear (if it isn't clear) that this is a DxD/Bayonetta crossover drabble. If this gets developed, it will be the DxD antagonists joining forces with the Bayonetta antagonists, as well as some appearances from some well-known characters that fight alongside the Umbra Witch. Anyways, the election will NOT begin on Chapter 6, instead, it will begin on Chapter 7 due to an interesting idea from NexusPrime42. The idea will be unveiled, and tomorrow we will have an odd Angel chapter, due to some conditions and such. Anyways, thanks for reading, shoutout to NexusPrime42 for that magnificent idea, and I'll see you all later (remember, suggestions for drabbles, put 'em in the comments, or send me a message).
