Percy's POV:

I felt myself awakening, the light waiting outside of my eyelids. For some reason, I felt someone breathing on my face softly, and two mounds of flesh pressed against my chest, while my arm was draped around said body. To make this even weirder, a person was behind me, pressing themselves against me while their arms were wrapped around my torso.

I instantly knew who they were and what they were doing and groaned internally at them in disbelief.

Seriously?

Not like I was in the position to fidget or escape, I passed the time by remembering what happened yesterday. My mind felt oddly blank, so I delved into the darkness and tried to recall what occurred yesterday and how I got into this bed with these two people.

Like a light being flashed into the darkness, my mind was overloaded with information coming back to me I as I took it all in: how I fought Rias and her friends who all had powers and magic; the teleporting cat; and my dying parents!

Instead of being irrational like I was yesterday as I could tell, I tried to remain calm and still. I wonder where they were? I hoped they were okay and recovering; I was going to tear the throats of the assailant apart. Thinking of new torture methods, I felt a shuffle of the person that was lying behind me, and was reminded they were here.

Then all of a sudden, that one emotion took over me in dangerous amounts - guilt. Guilt for attacking my friends; guilt for not giving them a chance to speak; guilt for not trusting them; guilt for not controlling myself; guilt for disobeying my mom and everything else. I had wanted to kill myself during the fight and so I had fell down. Now I was suicidal, insane and broken - new, well old, facts about me. The reason?

Tartarus. That place had burnt scars into my mind and pushed me to my limits and then threw me past them. And I couldn't handle it.

The power I held. The superiority I felt. The fear I instilled. It was petrifying in its own way, trying to change me into someone else and I tried so hard every day to stay as Percy and not a corrupted demon. No one knew the truth about this, and every day I battled with my mind to stay sane, stay calm but my emotions stay in check for only so long. The mask I wore shattered, and I still cared for my mom, but my rage was too much to contain at that very moment, so I lashed out. I didn't want to lose someone close to me again.

Everyone around me walked by, looking up at me or on equal levels as a hero, a friend, someone to rely on, be comforted by. And never did I receive such help in my mortal life, the one who truly understood now dead, and the rest not being tortured to such levels with even gods afraid of Tartarus. I didn't want to be the hero, never did, all I wanted right now was to be understood, someone to talk with about it instead of being the rock people steady themselves with. I couldn't keep these swirling emotions calm for much longer before I did something horrid, and they escaped free.

That was one of the biggest reasons I left, so I didn't do something out of character to my family and friends, but I only met old friends here. I try to convince myself to move but I couldn't. I couldn't bring people down to my level and fill them with nightmares of my own, just so they understand. That's selfish. Then-

Tick tock.

Time moved by, every second bringing me closer to death. To peace. All I could do was to wait now. I stuffed those thoughts to the dark depths of my mind and focused on more positive things.

Finally, I realised I could open my eyelids, which I forgot I could do. I know right? Subtly, I opened my eyes, blinking rapidly from the incoming waves of energy and winced. Once my vision cleared, I saw a smirking Rias looking into my eyes while her face was centimetres from mine. I held my breath, waiting for something to ease the tension.

And out of nowhere, she said wistfully, remembering something. "You know something, this was the same way I first met Issei." That perverted kid must've groped her as soon as he could, which made me internally laugh. "But you woke up with me and Akeno. Lucky you." She finished, moving closer to my face, teasing me.

Pretending to fall for the trick, I moved closer to her lips and so did she to mine, while we closed our eyes was when I deceived her and pecked her cheek. She opened her eyes in shock and narrowed her eyes at me when a fist collided with my stomach which made me cough.

She couldn't do that with me anyway, but as much as my body yearned to 'play' with her, my morals denied that and said to move away. I pleaded quietly, not wanting to wake up Akeno behind me. "Can you please put some clothes on?" What were they even doing in the same bed as me?

She smiled at me and shook her head, but her smile told me more.

"My, my, my, you two already playing dirty in the morning! I want to join in." Akeno licked her lips cheerfully behind me.

I got up straight away and pushed myself against the head of the bed, covering my eyes desperately. "Why do you hide from us? You just happily sat there." Rias pointed out.

I turned to her in disbelief. "Yeah, that's because I didn't see anything nor did I touch you anywhere rude. My sense of respect still is in me, ya' know!"

I heard Akeno grumble about me and my kindness to women. Isn't that what women don't get and complain about, like those, feminists? I will never understand these girls. I heard some fidgeting, assuming that was them removing the duvet and some clothes being worn. "Well, we have clothes on now if that makes you happy."

I breathed out in relief and lowered my arms cautiously when my eyes saw Akeno still nude while Rias was in the process of getting decent, and got glued to their bodies. I tried to look away but will my willpower crumbled and I choked out. "Please put some clothes on?"

Akeni pouted. "Are our bodies not good enough?" Not good enough? They were way better than average and now it had been imprinted into my mind forever. Both had large boobs and were wearing only wearing panties, why were they so casual about this? Akeno spun around, sending her breasts for a little ride.

"Okay!" I put my hands up. "You both look amazing, now can you please cover yourself?" I pleaded.

Akeno smiled and shouted. "Thank you Percy." I just facepalmed at her. Rias just chuckled at me with a faint blush at my situation while she wore her shoulder cap and pushed her hair outwards, letting it fall into its usual state. Although, she always had one strand of hair poking off her hand whenever I saw her.

After a moment of looking away, I turned back to see them both fully dressed into their school uniforms. I got up off the bed finally, realising this was my room when someone's voice rang out. "You know, you don't have to wear your clothes." Rias spoke, when I turned to the voice.

Trudging to find my clothes neatly piled on the chair off to the side, I quickly switched clothes and was wearing a set of uniform for Kuoh Academy. Slipping my phone out of my pocket, I glanced at it and saw it was Friday, still another day left of school which would begin in half an hour.

When it hit me. Mom and Paul!

How could I have forgot about them? I ran a hand through my hair in panic and looked up at the two of them sadly. "Sorry Rias, Akeno, I gotta go and visit my mom and stepdad, I need to see how they're doing. Just leave the house whenever you want."

Akeno stepped forward, glancing at Rias to see if she'd stop her. "Hey, wait a second, you need to explain yourself about those weird water powers yesterday and how you destroyed half the school!" She came closer when Rias held her back and I nodded to her gratefully.

"I will assume he will be back to explain himself." She asked but it was more of a statement.

I shrugged in response and grimaced at their reactions. Leaving the place with a snap of my fingers, I reformed outside of the hospital mom told me about, but I could sense her aura from a mile away. I exited the alleyway, stepping into the sunlight, and pushed the doors of the building open and entering inside.

I went to the front desk and informed her I was Sally Jackson's son, and after a minute of arguing with her she finally told me the room and ward she was residing in. After that, I told her how Paul was related to me and she directed me to where that room was too.

In a hurry, I jogged through several corridors, occasionally sprinting rapidly until in the end, I located the room she was in. I pushed open the door and saw my mom on the bed, and she weakly turned her head in my direction. That look on her face told me she knew I did something reckless and it made shatter. It made me guilty from the inside out, gnawing away at my life.

I darted to the side of her bed and pulled out a chair before plopping onto it. I held her hand tightly and mumbled into it. "I'm so sorry mom. I'm so sorry." I closed my eyes, not wanting to show weakness.

I felt a hand pulling my chin and when I opened my eyes, mom was looking at me. "Percy, what happened?" She said quietly, that tone signifying she was hoping against hope I didn't go out and hurt anyone. It just made me feel worse and disgusted with myself.

I buried myself into her hand and muttered sadly. "I'm sorry for not being their to protect you and for living with you. A-and I did it. I lost control." I let a tear slip out. "I did it again." I howled to the ceiling.

"Percy, please tell me you didn't do anything bad. Please." She pleaded lightly.

"I thought it was Rias and her group of friends. They all had similar aura so I went to their club and I-I, fought them. I collapsed the building onto most of them and fought one of them." Regret was killing at my sanity. "In the worst friend ever, I only hurt people and let people get hurt." I cried.

Mom said some soothing words in reply. "It isn't your fault honey, we all lose control, even I do. I know everything that happened with down there and her have scarred you and your-your sanity is cracking, but you have to push past it." She paused. "Look at how many lives you've saved. The positive."

"But what about the ones I let disappear. Die. I can't ignore them, they still haunt me in my dreams today, mom." And it was the truth. Occasionally, I saw them blaming me for their deaths in my nightmares.

She stayed silent and I was calming down, tears gradually stopping until I wiped then with my sleeve. I looked up and saw she had fell asleep peacefully over the silence. Deciding to let her sleep, I exited the room without a noise and vowed in my mind, that I would never get anyone else close to me hurt, or even allow people to become come closer with me.

I checked on Paul but I guess I was too late because he was already asleep by the time I reached his room.

I knew my friends deserved an explanation but I couldn't just tell them about my world or else the gods would smite me. I entered the closet in the hallway, and teleported away onto school grounds, not bothering with my car right now. Though I froze into a stupor. The school was fixed, it looked the same when I first came here. If I didn't know, I wouldn't be able to tell a fight happened here. What did they do? I pushed those thoughts aside and wanted to just go to lesson, freeing my mind of problems and stress.

I checked my phone and found it was about to follow into second period. I darted to the Mathematics classroom, mumbling about how it was useless.

I stood outside the room, leaning against the wall and drumming my finger across my leg. A moment later, a wave of students walked out of the room and proceeded to their next lesson while I slipped into the room going to my usual seat.

The teacher looked at me quite surprised. "Percy, good morning, how did you get here so quickly?"

I just stared blankly at him but nevertheless, answered his question out of respect. "I didn't attend my first lesson and only arrived now, been waiting outside for a couple of minutes."

Finally, people started swarming into the room as always and I saw Akeno out of the corner of my eyes. Concentrating on the lesson, the professor started the most boring thing on earth.

[Linebreak]

Grumbling incoherently, I made my way to the Occult Research Club, the end of the day a few minutes ago. I knocked on the door and heard a 'come in.' When I stepped into the room, everyone tensed with their hands fidgeting and foreheads sweating. The tension was so thick, I could slice through it like butter.

I put my hands up in a peaceful manner but it didn't help. "Percy here, has come here to talk about… the events which happened yesterday." Rias looked pointedly at me while sitting straight up in her seat, one leg crossed over the other. Xenovia, Koneko, Kiba, even Rossweisse who introduced herself as part of this club were all on edge.

"Well… you go first. Something from your world hurt my family so it's only right for you to go first." I argued.

Rias contemplated before leaning forward, crossing her arms on the desk. "Alright. As you are something magical, I'll be blunt." She took a deep breath. "Everyone in this room are devils." I waited for her to say that this was some joke but I saw them looking at me dead serious.

That threw me off-guard. They were devils? Out of everything, I didn't expect her to say devils, like what the actual fuck. It was amusing so me being me, asked as a joke. "So where are your horns, and tails and wings then?"

Issei snorted at me humorlessly. "Ha, ha, ha. Only the original devils looked like that man, we only have the wings." Out of his back, a pair of elegant black evil-looking wings appeared, and so did on everyone else's back.

"Woah! Now that, is cool." I gasped at them, they get wings. I may be able to fly but it it so much better with wings.

Rias continued her explanation. "In our world of the Bible from Christianity , fallen angels exist and so do angels. Yes, the ones from God. Fallen angels are angels that commit a crime and fall from heaven, tainted by evil and try to get forgiveness from God by doing deeds - good and bad." My mind was processing too much too quickly. "My brother is Lucifer, or Sirzechs as he prefers. I'm not here to tell you about my family so another point is that there aren't many of us in this world. The Great War caused many deaths and we were all on the brink of extinction."

She gave me a moment to think about all of this, everyone else in the room just stared at me waiting for a reaction I guessed but this wasn't that random compared to what I'd seen in life, heck, I even met Loki from the Norse pantheon.

And so it carried on. Rias saying something, me reacting and saying something and one of the devils answering my questions. Something along the lines of:

"Dragons exist… sacred gears… Gremory peerage… chess pieces like a knight… rating game… twelve of them… Issei has one… powers and magic… magic circle… four Satan Kings… fight with Vali… God is dead." I was having a cup of water when I literally spat it all out.

She raised an eyebrow at me. "You're telling me God is dead? Like God, God, most powerful being in the world." She nodded. "Well that's bullshit. Sorry for the language." I winced when she glared at me. This 'God' was a phoney, the real God wouldn't die so this must be the biblical god, on par with probably a Primordial.

"What do you mean Percy?" She inquired, a smile gracing her lips.

"Well…" Could I tell them I met God in my dreams once, or Chaos as he was called in my pantheon. Who cares? I took the risk. "I met God the other day, ya' know, in my dreams and we talked." I blabbered and realised they probably didn't believe me with their deadpan stares. I sweatdropped and scratched my neck. "It's true. Although I can't tell you more about it, unfortunately."

They still didn't believe my claim so I waved it off, saying 'forget it.' Issei got up from the sofa and stood in front of everyone else. "Yeah, I totally believe God is real." He rolled his eyes at me and pointed a finger at me. "But you need to tell us who or what you are?"

I looked down and laughed dryly. "About that…" I gazed up awkwardly. "I can't tell you." Everyone tensed again and some narrowed their eyes.

"Why?" Rias asked, tilting her head which looked kinda cute but whatever.

"If I do and my superiors find out which they could easily, I'd get smited and my family would be killed probably because that's what they're like." I skidded a foot across the floor while everyone stayed silent. "I would tell ya', but not my story to tell and spread. If a reason comes up then I will but right now, I just can't." I summed up.

"Hmm…" Rias hummed. "Alright, we-"

Issei cut her off rudely. "What! You can't trust him? I did but he attacked us and injured us all. It took Asia all her strength to heal us." Asia blushed in the background. What was wrong with this kid? Was it because I caught him peeking through a hole at some girls?

She silenced him with a hand and he grudgingly shut up. "For now, we will trust him until Percy does something to break it. He attacked us because it looked as if we were associated with the criminal, with our auras and such." She then smirked. "I can guarantee that is what you would've done Issei, even I would've done the same so please be quiet and quit moaning."

"Yes President." He mumbled in submission. That made me internally chuckle at how easily his trap could be closed with an action from Rias.

"Anyway," Rias clasped her hands together peaking everyone's attention. "I know everyone here is at unease. We will discuss the events which happened and what to do tomorrow at Issei's house. Percy, you are welcome to come." She looked pointedly at Issei who grit his teeth. "You may all go home now, that's the end of today." She waved most people in the room off.

I saw Issei muttering inaudibly to himself and so couldn't make out what he was saying to himself. One thing that prodded at me was the fact his gauntlet had an aura that in a very small way, resembled the energy that was emitted from someone using charmspeak; like Silena did, or Piper, Drew or even Aphrodite.

Rias was deep in thought at her desk so I left her be, hoping she wouldn't hear my voices, hopefully devils don't have super-hearing.

Grabbing Issei by the shoulder before he could leave, I shoved him into the wall not too hardly. There was a cabinet in the way so Rias probably couldn't see. I looked back and found that Rias wasn't in her seat anymore. He was about to shout before I covered his mouth. I could feel my past urging me to force the answers out but I kept it at bay. This urge made me foolish enough to not use my powers and sense for anyone around us.

"Tell me about your gauntlet." I demanded. "Or else." I raised a fist. I knew Issei was in a 'harem' or was 'friends with benefits' with most of the girls in the club, and he probably wouldn't listen to me. Although I couldn't let him play with people's' love lives if that was what was going on.

I took my hand off of his mouth and let him speak. I could feel his heart beating rapidly. Hesitantly, he began. "I can boost my power every ten seconds, which doubles it, I have a dragon form then a much more powerful-"

I punched the wall next to him irritated. "No, not that, tell me if it has a power to do with charms or attraction people." I saw a flicker of shock in his eyes. I narrowed my eyes at him. "You know." I was only annoyed because Aphrodite abused this power and destroyed love lives, and used it to get almost anyone attached to her.

He shook his head violently. I carried on. "The gauntlet has a power which attracts the other gender, in your case girls so you can be together. You all think it's love but in reality it could also be fake love. Am I right?"

He was in stupor. "H-how do you know that?" He stuttered out.

"It doesn't matter. What I want to know is you've been playing with all the girls in the room unless you truly love them. Do you?" I inquired from him dangerously.

He hesitantly nodded his head. "Yeah, I do, I love Rias the most since she was my first." I felt his voice which was full with sincerity but at the same time, I could discern he was lying somewhere but I didn't know what he lied about.

I let out a breath, and looked at him. "Look sorry Issei, I didn't want to do that but you remind me of someone who had a similar power and never loved her partners." I shut my eyes and opened them again, looking him in the eye. "I just didn't want their hearts to be broken, or yours. I don't know if this is real love or not, and I'm trusting it is with your statement; but I won't tell anyone about this because it's keeping all of you happy, only if we become friends though again?" I formed a deal, chuckling, to which he accepted happily.

I clapped him on the shoulder. "Anyway, I gotta' go. Have a nice evening with your harem." I grinned at him and he grinned widely back.

"Yeah, thanks Percy. I can't wait to suck all those titties." He dazed away, making hand gestures to which I groaned at.

I snapped my fingers and left the vicinity, forming into a body back in my house. Thank gods no one heard that conversation or there would be an uproar in the land of devils.

What I didn't know was that there was someone there the whole time.

[End of Chapter]

A/N: Alright, I knew I fucked up on the previous chapter, I even hoped for it not to be too unrealistic. I also want to make clear, Percy WILL NOT become a devil, if I wasn't clear which I wasn't; when I referred to 'you know what happened to Issei.'

I also want to say I'm hella' sorry for the late chapter. I was supposed to update the day before yesterday but I don't know if any of you know, but a storm completely annihilated the train services in England and so I almost got bloody stranded lol. Then I was supposed to yesterday but I fell asleep while on my phone haha, and now I'm doing it today. Now anyway, on to the reviews:

Charli. - You're welcome dude but thank you for reviewing. Ugh, I know I messed up big time with what happened but it seems slightly reasonable so let it slide, maybe? Maybe the chapter was better.

Aetemus - Yep, my fault for being so stupidly vague and I PM'd you about it and that Percy shall not become a devil. Thanks for reviewing and hoping for more if you carry on reading.

omegazero6 - Haha, yep, I would confirm/deny it but then some others readers may work it out. Thanks for reviewing again dude, hopefully you enjoyed this chapter.

Namikaze Uzumaki Potter - Thanks and true… but that's the trick, he seems calm; it's not that difficult to bullshit how you feel but feel like actual shit on the inside haha. Added some stuff about how he was hurt from Tartarus in this too, so hope it fixed the story a bit too. I also PM'd you about a possible Naruto FanFiction and how I couldn't do such a thing, unfortunately dude.

Sovaton - I appreciate you review again and I PM'd you too; I don't know if you've seen it. I would write there but it's way too long haha. I answered and thanked ya' there and hope you enjoyed his chapter.

paladin3030 - Aright, I definitely need to be more clear when writing haha. I PM'd you and sorry for the unclear shit, hope you enjoyed this anyway.

Guest - Hmmm… (I know I fucked up)... let's go with Percy is not right in the head, huh, even if the chapter is a bit bullshit, haha? And okay, sorry dude with my poor insult from Sona but I can not for the love of God, think of anything decent in the middle of the night haha, and I'm really not good at that stuff. Maybe this chapter was better?

The loner - Dude, I know how you feel. If I ever ended a story, it wouldn't be on a cliffhanger or if I did put it on hiatus (which would be temporary), it wouldn't be on one again either, I'm not a dick haha.

Anyway, that aside, how was the chapter, did it work or nah? Good? Bad? Unrealistic? Detailed? Say anything you want in a review, and with a follow or favourite would be great.

I hope y'all don't hate me for not posting a day early either, or for giving out such a bad character if this is. Forgive me? Anyway, whatever, it was midnight (before I passed out) and I'm posting this chapter the next day, y'all better be grateful. If there are any errors, I'm too tired and lazy right now to check and so apologies in advance for any.

Peace.
