Okay Guys Im back and still alive :)
After dealing with those Finals, heres the 28th chapter enjoy :)
(Warning it gets a little emotional later on)
(Flashback)
Six years ago.
Takeru was now on his mission to eliminate a Stray Devil.
"Do you see the target." asked the person via telepathy.
"I see it." Takeru answered in a monotone tone.
"Whats the status ?"
"There are some kids there."
"Must be doing their first Stray devil elimination.
"Should I attack now ?"
"No wait and see if they can weaken it and then attack them make sure no one sees you."
"Fine." Takeru said as he was on stand by as he observed the fight.
Takeru saw five children, one with red hair, a girl with short black hair, a boy with blond hair, a younger girl with white hair, and a girl with long black hair.
Seeing that girl with the long black hair, made Takeru's heart beat for some reason. It was as if he had met her before.
"Who is she ?" Takeru asked himself.
"Heeheehee. Well, well, what do we have here, five devils that will become my next meal?" said the voice of the Stray Devil as it came out of the shadows. It had the face and torso of a man, but had two snakes for legs. He had two sets of arms each carrying a large cleaver sword.
"Stray Devil Kontalark, we were assigned by the Gremory family to kill you," announced the redhead.
"So they're part of the Gremory group." Takeru mused. He couldn't stop paying attention to that girl with the long black hair for some reason.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! As if you puny devils are a match for me! I was the rook of one of the strongest Devils in Hell! You cannot defeat me!" he bragged as he charged at the children .
They prepared their fighting stances. The blond boy had a sword which then changed its blade to dark element.
The white-haired girl put on her gauntlets and the redhead and the black longhaired girl flew, the other girl just stayed on the ground and summoned several pillars of water.
With blond boy's speed, he managed to cut off two of Kontalark's arms, as he roared in pain. The other girl froze his legs to the ground.
He was about to crush Koneko with his arm but she just stopped it with one arm.
"…..Fly," she said as she flung him into the cliff side. The redhead then proceeded to blast crimson energy at him while the other girl blasted lightning, who had a sadistic smile.
Takeru seeing that couldn't help but blush seeing such a beautiful smile on that girl.
"What is wrong with me ?" Takeru asked himself.
The stray devil was engulfed in a huge explosion that shook the earth, the smoke soon died down and it looked like he was passed.
"Tch not even close." Takeru said knowing the Stray was still alive.
"Well, mission accomplished. Now let's get back to-"The blond boy was cut off as a huge arm knocked him into a mountain.
"Kiba!"the redhead yelled. Another arm knocked her and the other girl out of the skies and smashed the other into the ground.
Then a giant snake appeared and ate the white haired girl.
"KONEKO!"screamed the red-head.
Kontalark just rose from the rubble and looked as if he wasn't even scratched.
"Mwahahahahaha! Looks like making a deal with that fallen angel was the best idea I've ever had after all. Now I have the power to defeat anyone." He laughed as he took out a light sword.
Takeru was full of anger seeing that Devil obtained something from a Fallen Angel, just like that Exorcist obtained power from a Fallen Angel.
The enemy then saw Kiba limp towards the group, he started to swing the sword down.
But then boy named Kiba used his dark bladed sword to block the holy weapon. But Kontalark still had his other arm and sword, so at the last-minute, he switched his attack and slam Kiba into the woods, he broke through several trees before coming to a stop. He was bleeding and unconscious.
Takeru just observed the situation calmly regardless of their struggle.
He then set his sights on the three older girls of the group, who were struggling to stand up from the crater they were in. Just then one of Kontalark's snake legs opened its mouth, which showed Koneko holding its mouth open and walked out casually, before smashing it into the ground with a boulder. His leg was pinned to the ground so he was immobile, but his arms were free, and they were in his weapon's range. He then had an arrogant and sadistic sneer on his face as he was about to kill them all with the light sword.
Takeru by impluse immediatly headed to the battle.
Just as Kontalark was about to swing down his light sword on Rias and the others. Takeru appeared fully hooded blocking the attack with a sword with a white blade.
"So, you want too die huh? Well I'll be happy to oblige-"
He was cut off as his arm was cut off.
"AAARRRGHHH! Why you Bast..."
Takeru then cut off his other arm with his other sword he summoned which had a black blade.
The young devils were surprised at their unsuspecting savior.
The long black-haired girl, couldn't help but feel as if she knows the person in the black coat.
So where from a distance. Grayfia was there supervising the young devils. She was surprised at seeing a member of the Organization was here. Trying to sense the member's demonic energy, she couldn't feel anything at all as if it was nothing.
Takeru turned around to see if they were alright for some reason.
When Takeru got a better look at the black-haired girl, he started to remember how she looked exactly like his friend, Akeno.
" You'll pay for that !" yelled the stray.
Takeru now dualweilding his swords, ignited them with blue lighting.
The Stray charged at him with his body regenerated.
Takeru then threw both swords at the devil.
With one snap of his fingers.
The two swords surrounded the devil as it trapped him, electrocuting him.
"GAAAAAAH !"
Takeru didn't want to make this any longer, called back his swords and slashed the devil with his blades still ingited by lighting.
"GRAAAAAH !"
With that the devil turned to ash.
"It's done." Takeru said to himself.
Just when he was about to leave. He felt someone hugginh behind him.
He looked to see it was the white-haired girl.
"...Thank you for saving us." she said.
Takeru was surprised at this, He would never thought he would get a "thank you" It was confusing for him.
He then petted the girl on the head. Which made the girl blush.
And by out of his character he said.
"Your welcome." he said quietly so only she can hear.
When she heard his voice. It sound monotone , but she can tell that he meant it.
Just then the wind blew, pushing his hood down. revealing his face.
"Dam it."
Seeing this they all got a better look at their savior.
He had long short silver hair (Yamato Hotsuin style) his blue eyes.
Akeno seeing this couldn't help but to think he looked a lot like her friend Takeru.
She walked to him getting a better close of him.
Takeru seeing her approaching, he pushed the little girl away gently.
Grayfia seeing this couldn't beleive that a child was apart of the XIII, and he was able to kill a stray devil single handedly.
She then teleported herself to where the children were.
"Grafyia !?" said the redhead in surprise.
"As a maid of the House of Gremory. I advised you to stay where you are." Gryfia said pointing her hand at him with a magic circle.
"Tch." Takeru then had his hand covered in black energy.
He then brought his hand up releasing the energy, which shrouded the whole area in darkness.
"Wait !" Grayfia yelled dispersing the spell.
Everyone opened their eyes and saw that the boy in the black coat was gone.
Suddenly tears were coming out of the girl with the long black hair.
"*sob* sob*"
"Akeno whats wrong !?" asked the redhead.
Akeno was crying because now realzing that the boy that saved him was her friend that she left. Seeing him now, it didn't seem that he was really himself. He was a completely different person.
Meanwhile some where from the distance.
"That was too close." Takeru said to himself, having successfully escaped from the strong woman.
Takeru couldn't believe how out of character he was just now. Usually he wait until the group sent to attack stray devils died, and he would finish the job.
Having saw the girl that looked similar to his friend, started to cause some doubts into him.
"Its not her, she's gone now." Takeru assured himself, trying to get rid of doubts that the girl he saw was his once friend Akeno.
(Flashback end)
Infirmary
Takeru woke up and found himself in the infiramary. He felt a slight sting in his chest and noticed the bandages covering his chest. His demonic arm was covered in bandages.
{About time you woke up.}
"How long was I out ?"
{Bout four days.}
"That long huh ?"
{Takeru-kun are you alright ?}
Takeru then felt how his body seems to feel lighter. He realized it was because of the limiters he had on were now gone and especially the limiter for THAT power.
"Yeah peachy." Takeru said a little agitated.
{So how did it felt using all that power ?}
"Hm it was nothing."
{So you weren't taken over by some other force, hollow, anything ?}
"No. It was all me releasing my pent-up rage."
{I see.}
Then suddenly someone came in.
"I see you woke up." Sirzechs remarked.
"Yep."
"So how're you feeling ?"
"Well I feel lighter."
"I see."
"Sirzechs... I want to place those limiters back."
"You do know what will happen if you do that."
"I deal with the consequences."
Meanwhile Akeno, Rias, and Koneko were heading to Takeru's room.
"I hope he wakes up this time."
"Ara, planning to punish him Buchiu, because thats my job."
Just as they were about to enter...
"You know you'll die if you do that." Sirzechs said
The girls were shocked at what they just heard.
"I know, it's better than knowing that I have power inherited from HIM."
"Your body won't be able to hold back that power unless you accept."
"I rather die than accept this kind of power."
"What would happen if the others know of this."
"If they do... Then I'll leave."
The girls outside were shocked to find out that the power Takeru held back, was killing him. He didn't seem to care for his own life regardless of that.
"Besides a happiness like this... I don't even deserve it. For all those things I've done in the past. I won't be even to stay in the same light as them."
"Takeru-kun..."
"Sirzechs, do you mind leaving me alone. Please."
Sirzechs nodded.
When Sirzechs got out of Takeru's room.
He saw the girls in the hallway.
"Onii-sama..." Rias said as she walked up to him.
"I guess you eavesdropped on our conversation huh ?" Sirzechs said as he rubs the back of his head.
"So is it true that he's the Son of Sparda ?"
"Yes."
"How long have you known Takeru ?"
"For about six years."
"How did you meet him ?"
"Sorry Rias, thats for Takeru to tell. If I told you that I'll be in big trouble from him."
"I see."
"Sirzechs-sama, how long has Takeru suppressed that power ?" Akeno asked with worry in her eyes.
"...For five years now."
The girls were shocked to find out that Takeru held back that power for so long. Yet he didn't even had to use it.
"...Is Sempai going to be okay ?" Koneko asked.
"He's fine physically... but his mind isn't im afraid."
Meanwhile with Takeru.
Takeru used magic to change his outfit, now wearing a black hoodie, a white tee, dark blue jeans.
{Where you going.}
"..."
{Takeru-kun... Are you planning to leave ?}
"Not sure but Im gonna go stop by somwhere first." Takeru said as he opened the window.
{You're actually gonna jump ?}
"You scared ?"
{Nope, just making sure.}
Suddenly wings errupted from his back.
"You got to be fucking kidding me."
{Whoa new wings.}
On his back he had new black devil wings. But only this time he had four wings now(smaller versions of Dante's Majin form wings).
"Dammit."
{What thought you liked having these.}
Takeru realized that ever since he used that Power. He started to have a weird sensation inside his body.
{Looks like your old mans power helped.}
"Shut up." Takeru said as he dispersed the wings and jumped out the window.
By using a maigic circle to cushion the fall he landed safely.
Takeru the walked away leaving the school building.
(Flasback)
5 years ago.
Gremory estate
"You want to do what ?" Sirzechs said in surprise.
"I want to add more limiters to that other power I have." answered a 13 year old Takeru.
"Why would you do that."
Takeru had in irritated look on his face.
"Is it beacuse of your..."
"Don't even SAY IT !" Takeru yelled in anger.
"Takeru-kun..."
"I refuse to accept this... I refuse."Takeru muttered.
"Takeru-kun, do you know the consquences you'll have to face when you suppress that large of power you have ?"
"It'll slowly decrease my life span ? Yeah I know and I'll deal with it."
Sirzechs was shocked to see how much Takeru hated his father, even though he hadn't meet me at all and also the willingness to add the burden to his shoulders.
"You sure you want to do this?"
"I do."
Sirzechs sighed as he created a communications circle.
"I'll talk to Ajuka and tell him to do it."
Takeru nodded as he left.
Later at Ajuka's lab.
"You sure you want to do this ? Its gonna hurt like hell."
"Whats the big deal just slice open and place the limiter in plain and simple."
"Oi Takeru isn't that kind rough !" Sirzechs said.
"Hm I don't see why not. Its more quicker that way."
"Hey !" said Sirzechs now worrying of how this prcedure is gonna turn out.
"That was a joke Sirzechs."
Sirzechs was dumfounded.
"Can't you tell it was a joke ? Geez we already have advanced in technology for this kind stuff."
"You two are real Devils you know that." Sirzechs said to the two devilish devils.
"Its what I am."
"Overreact much."
"You two are so alike."
"Were devils."
"Its natural that way."
"I give up." Sirzechs said.
Ajuka then placed some sort of device on Takeru's chest, which was connected to another machine with a monitor for health status.
"This is the last chance to change your mind."
"Do it."
"As you wish." Ajuka said as he turned on the device.
(Flashback end)
Meanwhile the girls decided to enter Takeru room.
When they've entered they saw he was gone.
"Where did he go."
Koneko pointed to an open window.
"Takeru..." Akeno said worried of how her friend was now.
Meanwhile
Takeru was walking somewhere until, a man with a white trenchcoat with a high collar lined with gold, white shirt, pants and hair is spiked up, and he has green eyes.
"So you're the son of Sparda."
"Yeah whats it to you ?" Takeru said with an irate tone.
"My name is Baul. I was an apprentice of your father's. "
"Like I give a fuck about some dumb ol Dark Knight having students."
Suddnely a sword bursted out of the ground and into Baul's hand.
"I won't allow you to insult Sparda-sama." Baul said pointing his sword at him.
"Who cares." Takeru said. as he walks pass Baul.
"Such insolence." Baul said as he tries to attack Takeru.
Takeru with a snap of his fingers, chains suddenly appeared snaring Baul.
"How weak to attack someone from behind." Takeru sighed.
Baul struggled to get out.
"Don't bother this is called Shadow Spell(Yugioh Trap Card) Once someone is trapped by those chains their powers are reduce to seventy percent. Unless you're a skilled Ultimate-class devil they can be broken easily by them." Takeru explained as he walked away.
"WAIT COME BACk HERE !"
"Don't waste my time weakling." Takeru said coldly.
{That was boring. Oh well back to Pokemondam I want that fucking shining Rayquaza.}
{...}
{What I don't swing that way okay !}
{...}
Meanwhile at the Infiramary.
Akeno found Takeru's black coat.
Seeing this she remembered being saved along with the others when they were children, by a person wearing that coat as well.
Akeno then remebered that , that person was Takeru. She couldn't believe after all those years she managed to see her friend before, yet it hadn't come to her mind before. Ever since when she first saw Takeru at the Underworld, when he saved them from the Stray devil. She thought that person wasn't her Takeru at all because of his non existing demonic energy, the way he looked and those eyes full of no emotion.
Koneko seeing the coat as well, thought of Takeru as the one that saved them from the Stray Devil as well.
Rias seeing the coat also, recognized that it belonged to the now deceased Organization XIII. She heard that her brother eliminated the whole Organization, but she would never thought that Takeru would be apart of that group as well.
Akeno then headed out.
"Akeno where are you going ?" Rias asked.
"Im going to look for Takeru."
Cemetery
Takeru arrived at the cemetery,
When he arrived, he saw that the graves for his parents/relatives were now repaired.
"Ohayo, Tou-san Ka-san." Takeru greeted.
"Well I've finally done it, I've accomplished my revenge." Takeru grinned while hidden underneath it was a broken man.
"I even used that power...shut up...shut up...shut up shut up shut up shut up shut up !" Takeru yelled as he was on the ground looking down at the graves.
"I DID WHAT I HAD TO DO TO GET STRONGER NO MATTER THE CONSEQUENCES I WAS PREPARED... SHUT UP ! I did so I could just I... I... I..."
Takeru was now feeling something strange in his mind, it was an emotion he thought he would've gotten rid of over the years..Saddness.
He was crying for the first time in seven years, since that day.
{Takeru-kun...}
{Wow is this a character development coming ?}
{Nii-sama !}
{Sorry...}
Takeru kept on crying, releasing the sadness he had built up inside.
Akeno who was looking for Takeru, found him.
She was relieved to have found him.
But was shocked and surprised to see her friend cry.
For as long as she can remember, she never seen Takeru cried before at all. During her times whenever she feels sad, Takeru was always the one to be the shoulder she would cry on to, the other person she can come see whenever she feels sad other than her mother.
"Takeru..."
"This happiness I've obtained so far is... Something that I shouldn't deserve at all. " Takeru said as he stopped.
Akeno eyes widen in shocked hearing how Takeru felt about his life now.
"This was nothing but unnecessary charity a person like me shouldn't have. My hands are tainted in blood that'll never wipe away. The deeds I've done I have no regrets at all. But there is one question I'm always bothered by... Why was I even born ?"
Akeno couldn't believe what she was hearing. Takeru was questioning his own existence. The way he was talking, it was as if he shouldn't deserve happiness anymore.
"Takeru..."
"I feel like I shouldn't have been born at all. During the past years I've become nothing but demon stained with blood. I've showed no emotion whenever I kill, all i viewed the victims as nothing but trash. I thought being a devil was blessing being unique and all. Even Akeno accepted for who I was back then. But everything changed since that day. I'll be visiting Shuri-san now."
Takeru then headed to Shuri Himejima's grave, which surprised Akeno.
"Shuri-san, I don't deserve to be with your daughter."
Akeno didn't like where this was going, it was if he's planning on leaving and never come back. She couldn't bear that to happen.
"Ever since Akeno left with the Gremory Clan. These eyes of mine changed that day." Takeru said as his eyes changed to the red with black symbols.
Seeing his eyes like this, Akeno realized that Takeru got those eyes was because of his hatred for her when she left. Akeno started to feel that she failed as friend to Takeru. He's been through so much, that it changed him to a completely different person.
"From that day I began to hate her."
"!"
"I hated her so much for the pain i felt in my heart that it left a giant piercing hole.
Akeno remebered when she and Rias looked through Takeru's memories, of when he tried to come to her when she was about to leave with Rias, the anger he had in eyes , and his look of betrayl on his face.
"I wanted to forget about her, so the pain can go away. But six years ago, I saw her again."
Akeno felt relieved that he remembered saving her from the Stray Devil.
"But when I saw her... I ignored her existence from my mind. Just seeing her reminded of the pain I had seeing her leave in front of me was too much. I still had that pain in my heart. Whenever I would think of her, It hurts. I try and try to remember the great times we had but, all I could remember was that day she left me.
Akeno couldn't believe the pain Takeru had to suffer beause of her. Just thinking about Takeru trying to forget about her hurted him. She wanted to be the one that comforts him whenever he' s sad.
"But then when I saw her again when I first entered Kuoh. I completly forgot about her. Unaware of that person being the girl that I loved as a child. Becuase of her sudden popularity as one of the Great Women of Kuoh, I viewed as nothing but a girl and nothing more. But then when I became apart of Rias Gremory's peerage and being with Akeno. Memories of our childhood came up in my mind. Remembering those memories made me felt happy for the first time in years. When I saw her the pain I felt was gone, I thought I was at peace now that my friend came back. But later when she looked through my memories, I went back to hating her. It pained me to hate her again. But later I reconciled with her, when she came at me with that hug. I was really happy with her in my arms again. After I felt my life was finally at peace. "
Takeru had a somewhat at eased looked now.
"But then during that battle against that Fallen Angel, I showed Akeno, a side of myself I never wanted anybody to see. After that fight, at first I was happy accomplishing my revenge. But all I did was add more blood to these hands of mine." Takeru said sadly staring at his hand.
Takeru then took out a small rectangular box, and a lighter.
He then flipped open the lid of the box revealing cigarettes.
Akeno was shocked to see that Takeru smoked.
"I haven't had these for about five years now." Takeru remarked as he sticked a cig in his mouth, while his other hand lighted the lighter.
Just as he was about to light his cig. A bolt of lighting struck his items, causing him to drop them.
Takeru looked to see where'd it came from.
"Akeno..." Takeru said as he dropped the box of cigarettes.
Akeno walked up to him.
Takeru immediately fired a bolt of blue lightning to stop Akeno.
"Please stay away from me..." Takeru said as he turned his head away from facing Akeno.
"Takeru..." Akeno said as she tries to walk to him again.
"I said STAY BACK !" Takeru yelled as he created a small wall of flames.
{Takeru-kun...}
Seeing her friend like this was sad. They way he was now, it seemed he was disgusted of what happened during the battle against Kokabiel and how he said that he doesn't deserve to be with her hurted her.
"Takeru please I..."
"Akeno I'm leaving."
Akeno was shocked at what she just heard.
"What ?..."
"Akeno, Im leaving and that's final." Takeru said as turned around and pointed his hand forward, as it began to create a corridor of darkness.
Akeno couldn't believe what she just heard. After all those years, they were finally together again. But now he's just abandoning all that.
"Takeru please I..."
Just as the corridor of darkness was finishing taking it's shape.
"What the ?" Takeru said as the corridor broke.
{Fail.}
"Shut up im trying it again."
Takeru then tried to create the corridor but nothing came out.
"Why isn't it working ?" Takeru thought to himself.
"Takeru please I want to help you." Akeno said as she dispered the flames.
"If you overheard what I said. Then you should know the reason why Im leaving."
"Takeru it doesn't matter what you did I still love you."
"How could you even say that for what I've even done in my life. Six years ago, I would've had the chance and come see you again. But instead I just decide to ignore you. "
"I thoguht of you the same as well when I saw you too. But as I tried to forget about, I was really worried about how you were doing and what you've must've have been through when I wasn't even around with you no more."
"This is different, I spent the most of the remainder of my childhood killing and killing others. Im nothing but a demon, HECK IM ALREADY A DEMON SINCE I USED THAT POWER TO BEAT THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF KOKABIEL. HOW CAN YOU STILL LOVE AFTER SEEING OF HOW MUCH OF A MONSTER I AM !?"
"Takeru..."
"So I think we should break up, a blood staind person like me shouldn't be with some so pure as you. Maybe you can try to join in on Issei's harem, heh you'll love enjoying teasing him heh heh."
Akeno couldn't believe that he wanted to break up with her. She didn't want their relationship to end never ever.
"So I'll be taking my leave now. It was great seeing you Akeno. Just know that I always loved you." Takeru said as he brought out his new devil wings.
{Takeru-kun you shouldn't...}
{Wow didn't expect this...}
Suddenly Takeru felt something powerful.
Takeru looked to see that power was coming from Akeno.
Akeno was covered in sparks of lighting. But only this was different, the lighting had a more yellowish glow, and it had more power than it ever had before.
She then pointed her hands at Takeru releasing her new lighting attack at him.
Takeru tired to counter it with his own lighting.
But it was wiped out.
"No way that's..."
The new lighting attack hit Takeru knocking him to the ground with his clothes slightly charred.
This lighting was more painful to Takeru for some reason.
The sensation he feeling it felt similar to being hit with holy energy.
He then realized what Akeno just used now was her father's Holy Lighting.
{Whoa she used Holy Lighting man what a twist.}
{Akeno-chan...}
Akeno then looked at her hands which still had some spark and realized what she just did.
"No... I...never wanted to use this... Not like this..." Akeno said as she stared at the new sparks from her hands.
Akeno then looked at Takeru now lying on the ground paralyzed.
"TAKERU !" Akeno yelled as she went to her friend.
"Ugh." Takeru moeaned.
Akeno picked up Takeru up into her arms.
"Are you alright !?" Akeno asked worriedly.
"..."
"Takeru !"
"...Im fine but a little bit paralyzed."
"Im sorry I never meant to use that on you I..."
Takeru then moved his human hand which was less paralzyed and brought it to her cheek.
"Akeno..."
"I'm really sorry I really didn't want you leave... I..."
Tears started to come out her eyes.
Seeing this just made Takeru feel more guilty.
"Akeno I..."
Akeno immediately pressed her lips against his, silencing him.
During the kiss, Takeru could feel the emotions coming from Akeno. It was full of so much love for him.
Takeru wanted to break off this kiss. But he couldn't move.
Later they broke off.
"Akeno I..."
Akeno immediately brought him into a hug.
"Please don't leave. I don't want another person I love to leave me again." Akeno said as she tightened the hug.
"Akeno..."
"Do you remember what you said what you wanted to do when you grow up ?"
(Flash Back.)
9 years ago.
A nine year-old Takeru and Akeno were sitting by the river.
"Take-chan can I ask you something ?"
"Hm what is it Aki-chan."
"Well I was just wondering what you want to do when you grow up ?"
"Eh why do you need to know about that ? Were still young so we have plenty of time to do that when were adults."
"But have you already thought about it ?"
"Eh sure I guess but I'll tell you later."
"I want to know now !" Akeno said as she began to shake her friend.
"Akeno please stop I think Im gonna (stomach begins to churn) oh god."
"Then tell me now." grinned the now sadist Akeno.
"Okay fine just stop please before I barf."
Akeno let go as her friend rolled down the hill.
Akeno giggled.
"Meany." pouted Takeru as he got up.
"Sorry" Akeno said as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.
"Hmph now I feel like not telling."
"PLEEEEEEAAAASE !" Akeno said actviating her super kawaii puppy dog face.
"Ugh not the face... Okay I'll tell you." said the blushing Takeru.
Akeno was eagerlly wating for his answer.
"We'll I uh heh heh." Takeru said as he rubbed the back of his head.
"HURRY UP !"
"GAH MY EARS !"
Akeno giggled.
"Okay well I want to... marry you." Takeru said reluctantly with a blushed face.
Akeno immediately blushed hearing what he just said.
"R Really !?"
Takeru nodded with his face still blushing.
Akeno immediately hug tackled Takeru.
"Gah my back !"
"Yippee Takeru wants the same thing I want as well." Akeno said happily.
"What really you too ?"
"Of course." Akeno said happily as she gave him a kiss on the cheek.
Takeru blushed.
"Hee hee kawaii anata. i" Akeno said as she began to pinch his cheeks.
Takeru pushed her hands away
"Don't say that word !"
"Why you're gonna be my anata ?"
"I mean are you sure im good enough ?"
Akeno titled her head in confusion.
"I mean later on as we grow up, well change, and I become a different person."
"What are you gonna look weird or something ?"
"NO !"
Akeno giggled.
"What I am trying to say is..."
Takeru was cut off when Akeno hugged him.
"Don't worry even if you aren't being the same Take-chan I know. I'll still love you."
Takeru was a little speechless of how Akeno can still love him.
"Was that what you were worried about ?" Akeno asked innocently.
Takeru smiled.
"Yes."
"Good, then no problems." Akeno smiled.
"Yeah I guess that lifts that lump off my heart."
Akeno grinned as she sat against his chest between his legs.
"Promise you'll stay by my side." Akeno said.
"Sure don't worry after all if i did make you sad. Baraquiel will hit me with his lightning,"
Akeno giggled as she snuggled against his chest.
(Flashback End)
"I was just a child, making a promise that'll eventually be broken. A mere child's dream.." Takeru said as he managed to stood up.
"But..."
"As I recalled you left me remember."
"..."
"That was just a promise made in the past."
"Takeru..."
"Besides..."
Tears started to came out his eyes.
"Takeru."
"Im nothing but blood stain full of hate on this world *sob* I don't deserve any happiness or a friend like you *sob* I shouldn't have been born at all !" Takeru cried as he kneeled on the ground with his face facing the ground.
Akeno couldn't bear to see him like this. This was really not like him, seeing him sad was too painful to watch.
"Takeru didn't I say would still love even if you're a different person."
"This is different I meant when I don't have the same interests as you, or acting like a complete tsundere. "
"But still I..."
"Akeno, I'm glad that you can still love me. But the way I am now..."
"Then let someone in or at least me. Ever since you showed us a fragment of your memories. I was scared of how Kokabiel ripped off your wings, the way you killed those exorcists, and that look of hate and anger you had. I want to be by your side and this time I'll comfort you whenever you feel sad just like how you always do for me."
"Akeno..."
{Come kid she's pouring her heart out to you.}
"..."
{Takeru-kun you do realize you're not alone. You have us now and your friends remember. No matter the past or anything, your friends will help you.}
"..."
"Takeru..."
Takeru then pulled Akeno into a hug.
"Takeru ?"
"I'm so sorry *sob* Aki-chan."
Akeno hugged him and stroked the back of his head.
"It's alright Take-chan. Everything's going to okay now *shhhh* I am here now."
"I just don't want anyone I cared to die because of me."
This was Takeru's reason for leaving. Ever since that day it was because he was a devil, his parents/relatives died because of him. He didn't want anything like that to happen again.
"Don't worry as long as were with everyone nothing bad is going to happen."
"Are you sure ?" Takeru asked in a worried childish tone.
Akeno kissed him on the cheek.
"I'm positively sure."
For some reason Takeru felt like something heavy in his heart was removed making it lighter now. It was as if some of his worries had been gone now.
"Thank you Akeno for being my friend." Takeru said with a slight smile forming.
"You're welcome."
{Well glad that's over.}
{Nii-sama were you crying.}
{No I was just reading a Twilight book.}
{Really those things made you cried ?}
{No they... Okay I was crying okay. I mean this romance scene is so beautiful. The bond those to have is adorable. I mean they're way better than Romeo and Juliet, cause you their romance didn't go so well and I lost two thousand gold shards because I betted they'll live happy ever after. Man I must've been on crack to say that.}
{You always have a soft spot for sweet scenes. Looks like the doubt in Takeru's heart seems be gone now. Im happy for him.}
"So you're not gonna try to leave right ?" Akeno asked.
"Of course. If I do then I'll just give others to worry for me. Well maybe Issei since he'll try to add you girls to his harem."
Akeno giggled.
Takeru suddenly fell to the ground.
"Takeru !?"
"You really had to use Holy Lightning on me huh ?" Takeru said as he struggled to get up.
Akeno helped him up.
"Im sorry about that..."
"Don't be, you had to use that power eventually. Akeno please don't hate your father, he really loves you. Don't be like me."
"But he..."
"Akeno didn't he at least saved you ?"
"But what about you unlike me, the power you got from your father that you've sealed up will kill you one day."
"Then I'll just have to not use then instead of sealing it in. That way Im okay."
"Really ?"
"Yep. Akeno if you ever want help using that lighting. I'll be there for you alright ?"
"Okay."
"Good."
"So when did you start smoking ?"
"When I was thirteen."
"Why ?"
"Because I was depressed of how I lost the people I loved."
"Well I'm here now so you better not smoke anymore."
"But this was gonna be my second time smoking." Takeru whined.
Akeno used her lightning to destroy his pack on the ground.
"And that'll be your last." Akeno smiled.
"Fine you win."
"AKENO !" Rias yelled as she came running to them along with Koneko-chan.
As they caught up with them.
"Akeno you've should just waited for us to catch up with you."
"Sorry Buchou it's all my fault. I made Akeno worried. Takeru said as he bowed in apology.
Rias was shocked and surprised of Takeru sudden change in manners.
Koneko noticed some tears were on his face.
"...Sempai are you alright ?" Koneko asked.
Takeru realized the tears he still had on his face.
"Oh this? Don't worry Koneko-chan. Im all better now."
"Wait were you just crying ?" Rias asked out of concern.
"Yeah its the first time I ever cried too."
"Really ? Are you alright now ?"
"Didn't I just answered Koneko-chan's question ?"
Akeno giggled.
"I just want to make sure you know..."
"Lemme guess you heard about my power from Sirzechs right ? That blabbermouth."
"So you really are the son of..."
"Please don't say his name Buchou... Please..."
"Im sorry. So that power is it really ?"
"Yes since I held back this power it's slowly takeing my life. But don't worry I won't try to seal it again anymore. I'll just won't use it. That way some of my life force will be coming back to me."
Rias and Koneko were both relieved now that the power of Sparda won't be life threatening to him anymore.
"Well then I think I should head back to the infirmary don't you think ?"
"Of course and when we get back I'll be your nurse." Akeno said.
"No way Akeno he's my fiancé I'll be nursing him !"
"Ara ara, Buchou I forgot to tell you that when were children Takeru wanted to marry me when he grows up."
"HE WHAT !?"
"Akeno really ?"
"Ufufu, sorry Takeru I just wanted to show how below she is compared to me."
Rias had a face looked of defeat.
"Uh Buchou are you alright ?"
Rias was glowing crimson.
Suddenly Takeru was on Koneko's back.
"Koneko-chan ?"
"...I'll be taking Sempai back to the infirmary." Koneko said as she was holding on to his arm like backpack's strap.
{Wow what a twist.} commented Shurikan.
Koneko was now then leaving carrying her sempai like a backpack.
"Wait a minute Koneko get back here !" yelled Rias.
"Ara ara, this is interesting." commented Akeno.
From a distance Sirzechs and Baul were watching the scene.
"Hm it seems that some of his troubles are gone."
"I don't understand why you didn't tell me or Modeus about Sparda-sama's son."
"He has an intense hatred towards his father and even his mother as well."
"To live a life full of hate truly a rough path."
"So what will you do now Baul ?"
"I'll be heading back home."
"Oh aren't you going to evaluate him ?"
"No not right now, unless he starts using the power he has inherited he'll be worth to use that sword left by Sparda-sama."
"I see."
Baul waved as he headed back to the Underworld.
Infirmary.
Takeru was lying on the bed, his body still sore from the Holy Lightning.
"Tch damit."
"Ara, whats wrong ?" Akeno asked.
"I can't move my body."
"Ara is there a certain place that's bothering you ?"
Takeru smirked.
"Yeah I have this itch somewhere on my face can you take a look ?"
Akeno nodded as she put her face close to Takeru's.
Takeru then moved his head forward and kissed her on the lips.
"Ara"
"It's gone now." Takeru smiled liked an innocent child.
"Ara ara, you're so cute." Akeno said as she patted his head.
"Takeru giggled liked a child."
"Ara ara, why so childish now ?"
"Just felt like it." Takeru smiled.
"Aren't you a little devil."
"What can I say."
Takeru yawned as he went to sleep.
"Night Akeno..." Takeru said as he slept.
Akeno seeing this was glad to see that some of the Old Takeru was coming back.
"This time I'll always be by your side." Akeno said as she planted a kiss on his forehead.
