Chapter 3: A Devil's School
The next day came around and soon the future children found themselves en route to Kuoh Academy. On their way, they heard the other students talking about them as they approached the front entrance. "I wish we didn't have to wear these inconvenient uniforms", complained Severa.
"From what we were told, this used to be an all girls school. It recently turned co-ed, so it would take a while for them to change the uniforms too", said Morgan.
"I just want everyone to stop staring at my ears so...intently", said Yarne.
"So we find the student council president first in order to get our room arrangements correct?", asked Noire.
"Yup! For right now, we just blend in while we find a way home", said Morgan.
"So our journey to get home begins on this momentous day!", said Owain.
"And let's hope we get home fast. The other Shepards are probably worried sick about us", said Yarne.
The six entered the building and made their way to the student council room. Morgan knocked on the door. "Hello? Anyone in there?"
There was a slight shuffling before a woman's voice rang out. "Yes, you may enter."
The six walk in to find the student council president along with the vice president next to her. "Hello, I am Souna Shitori. You must be the six new students Rias told about. The woman right next to me is my vice president, Tsubaki Shinra."
Tsubaki gave a polite bow. "And what are your names?", Souna asked.
"Hello! I'm Morgan Reflet!"
"I'm Yarne Reflet…"
"Inigo Laslow. A pleasure to meet you."
"Noire Rhajat. It's nice to meet you."
"Severa Caeldori."
"I am Owain Dark! It is an honor to meet you Miss Student Council President!"
"I see. Welcome to Kuoh Academy. I trust Rias has already informed you that a good amount of students are Devils yes?", Souna asked.
Everyone nodded. "Good, then I can move on to the next condition concerning the boys. This recently turned into a co-ed school as you may know. As such, the males of this school have a bit more leniency when it comes to punishments. That being said, do not abuse this leniency. Understood?", Souna said.
The three males nodded with a sweatdrop behind their heads as Souna looked deathly serious about the punishments. "And please for all our sakes, do not become like the Perverted Trio. Try not to even associate with them", Souna almost pleaded.
Severa clicked her tongue in disgust. "You'll be seeing me in here quite often if they're as bad as you make them out to be."
Amusement danced in Souna's eyes when Severa made that comment. "Also, we need to know what this 'Perverted Trio' looks like so we can properly avoid them…", said Yarne.
"Matsuda, Motohama, and Hyoudou. You'll know them when you see them", said Souna.
"Right, then we need to make sure they stay away from Inigo", said Noire.
"You act like I'm a pervert! Never once have I done something as depraved as that!", said Inigo.
"While that may be true, would you really have us risk them turn you into one?", asked Morgan.
"...Valid point", Inigo conceded.
"Inigo, was it? I hope you aren't already a pervert?", asked Souna.
"Now, now, I admit that I do a bit of womanizing, but I give you my word that you won't hear about me doing anything depraved", said Inigo.
The answer seemed to cause Souna doubts very relenting a nod. "I respect the fact that you at least admitted to womanizing. Very well, I shall take your word. Do not disappoint me."
Inigo just gave a cheeky smile and a polite bow. "Now then here are your class schedules. I trust that you'd all enjoy being in the same homeroom?"
"Most appreciated, Miss Shitori", said Noire.
"Call me Sona Sitri in public. Souna Shitori is my Devil name", said Souna.
The Ylisseans nodded before they exited the room with a swift goodbye and went to their homeroom.
Needless to say, everyone was excited about the influx of exchange students. "Now now, quiet down. The foreign exchange students would like to introduce themselves. Please tell us your name and something about yourselves", said the teacher.
"Hello! I am Morgan Reflet! I wish to become just like my father one day!"
"I'm Yarne Reflet. I would appreciate it if you tried not to yell directly in my ears…."
"I am Owain Dark! I sometimes like to practice swordplay in my free time!"
"I'm Noire Rhajat. I like to do archery sometimes…"
"Severa Caeldori. You even think about hurting my friends, you'll pay…"
"You may call me Inigo Laslow. I find tea to be quite enjoyable with pleasant company."
The students went into full on rumor mode as the six finished introductions. "His ears are so cute!" "I wonder if she'll try to go for the Archery Club?" "He's kind of cute, I wish we had a male Kendo Club…"
Of course there were three males who had their eyes only on the females of the group. Severa immediately knew they were the infamous 'Perverted Trio' of the school. "I think I found the three perverts", she whispered to the others.
It was painfully obvious with the way they were staring at Noire, which in turn caused her to hide behind Yarne a little bit. "I feel very uncomfortable….", she said.
"You six my take the empty seats around the classroom", said the teacher.
Fortunately, they didn't have to sit near the Perverted Trio, but it didn't stop them from turning around and staring them down.
When it came time for lunch, the brown haired member of the trio introduced himself to Inigo. "'Sup, I'm Hyoudou Issei."
Inigo thought it rude to turn down a hello, so he responded in kind. "Greetings Issei, I am Inigo."
The other five Ylisseans were close by to bail Inigo out if things were as bad as they had been told. "Ugh, I hope Issei isn't trying to turn one of the new students into a member of his perverse activities", said one of the female students.
"Well, for what it's worth, Issei seems to be alright, maybe?", said Yarne, giving Issei the benefit of the doubt.
"So tell me, are you a boobs or butts kind of guy", asked Issei to Inigo.
"Wow, I've never been corrected so fast in my life…", said Yarne.
"Look Issei, was it? As much as I would like to have this conversation with you, I would very much like to eat with my friends", Inigo said as he politely excused himself from Issei.
"Ah right, well I hope we get along!", said Issei as he went with his friends.
"You handled that pretty well", said Morgan.
"I didn't think he'd just let it hang open like that! I think it's safe to say that I need to stay within arms length of those three…", said Inigo.
"At least you know when things are dangerous for you…", said Severa.
"Come now Severa, you wound me!"
A group of girls came up to Yarne. "Hello, could we ask you something?"
"Uh, sure…?", said Yarne, a little unsure about the question.
"Are you into cosplay? Your ears look so real! Could we touch them?"
"Yes, I do cosplay and No you may not touch them. It's a little embarrassing…", said Yarne.
"Please?", the girls pleaded.
"Alright, alright. I'm gonna have to ask you all to step away from my brother. Clearly he doesn't want anyone touching the ears", Morgan said, stepping to his defense.
"You two are actually siblings? You both look so different!"
"I look more like dad while he looks more like mom", explained Morgan.
"Well, it was nice meeting you Yarne." The group of girls went away.
"Somehow, I don't think that's the last time I'll see them…", said Yarne.
"Don't worry about. They'll continue for like two weeks at the most. They'll settle down", said Morgan.
"I believe we should eat, we barely have enough time to talk as it is", said Noire.
"Owain, you're strangely quiet friend", said Inigo.
"My swordhand is picking up a familiar sense. Like the sense when those Fallen attacked us yesterday", said Owain.
"You mean one is nearby?", asked Morgan.
Owain nodded. "I have no idea where though."
"Then don't worry about it. It'd be obvious if they knew we sensed them. Just keep your guard up", said Severa.
The group nodded and proceeded to eat lunch. Afterwards, the rest of the day went by pretty quickly without anything extra happening.
The sun was starting to set as the group of six walked home. They cut through the park to get home faster, but they ended up spotting Issei with a unfamiliar girl.
"She's a Fallen. I'm getting that sense from her", said Owain.
The group of six hid to avoid being found by the two. They couldn't hear the conversation between Issei and the girl, but they could tell that the conversation didn't go well, as the girl turned into Raynare.
"That's Raynare isn't it?! We have to help Issei!", said Yarne.
"Noire quick shoot her!", said Morgan.
Noire took out the Silver Bow and took aim. She quickly released the arrow and it soared to hit Raynare in her arm. Luckily, the mark hit just as Raynare threw the light spear towards Issei, causing it to miss him by a hair. That prompted Issei out of hi stupor and started running away from Raynare. "Who dares?!", said Raynare as she saw the six Ylisseans.
"Oh, not here with your guardians today?", taunted Raynare.
"Like we need them just to take you out!", said Severa.
"Oh? But I'm not here alone", said Raynare.
The other three Fallen came out of hiding, light spears ready. "Okay, now we need to be cautious. One of us needs to catch Issei!", said Morgan.
"I'll do it", said Inigo as he rushed off to protect Issei.
"You think we're just going to let you save him?", said Raynare as she chased after Inigo.
The other five went to chase Raynare, but were blocked by the other three. "Not this time, no more fancy tricks from you lot", said Dohnaseek.
"Fine, just don't cry when you get beaten for the second time!", taunted Severa.
Inigo easily caught up to Issei. "Issei! What just happened?!"
"I'm not sure! She just turned into a sexy black angel all of sudden! Asked me to die for her!", was Issei's hurried response.
A lightspear caused them both to stop running and immediately turn around. Raynare was there with a lightspear in hand. "Just where do you two think you're going?"
"Oh you know, Issei and I made a deal to hang out with each other, so we thought we'd do just that", said Inigo, joking around.
"It was a rhetorical question….", said Raynare.
"And you're awfully grouchy for someone with a pretty face."
"Flattery will get you nowhere", said Raynare as she threw the lightspear.
Inigo countered with his Silver Axe. "Sorry love, but you'll need to try much harder than that if you want us both dead."
"Fine, I'll just kill you first!", Raynare said as she charged.
Inigo was ready though. He easily dodged the thrust by sidestepping and promptly hit her side with his axe. Realizing that Inigo had the advantage on land, she immediately to the skies with her wings. Imagine her surprise when Inigo takes out a Tomahawk and grazes her shoulder throwing it. "How the hell did you manage that?!", she said.
"While I'm nowhere near as good a shot as father, I'm not terrible either", was Inigo's response.
"So what, are you and that archer wench related too?"
"No, we're just really tight friends."
Raynare was starting to realize that she didn't have very many options to challenge Inigo. While she was certainly faster than him, Inigo had far more skill and reflexes compared to her. It also didn't help that axes were just better equipped to fight lances. Then she noticed that Inigo was much to far away to save Issei should she throw a lightspear. Inigo might try and counter it, but it was the only shot she had. Taking that chance, she threw a lightspear at the frozen Issei. Realizing that the lightspear wasn't aimed at him, he chucked a Tomahawk to divert its course, but he wasn't Noire, so he missed by a hair. "Issei, move!", he shouted running towards him.
Unfortunately, Issei was too frozen and got impaled by the spear. Blood soon spilled from his torso as the lightspear faded away. Inigo immediately rushed to his side, hoping to stop the bleeding. Raynare was about to take advantage of Inigo's distraction, but another arrow from Noire quickly got rid of that option as the other five Ylisseans quickly ran to Inigo's aid. Raynare clicked her tongue in moderate satisfaction at killing Issei and quickly regrouped with the other Fallen.
"Issei, oh no!", said Noire.
"Just like in the future….", said Yarne.
"Why? Why can't I manage to save one life!?", shouted Inigo.
"Guys, we need to go! There could be reinforcements!", said Morgan.
"Morgan is right. We must retreat for now and tell Robin and Panne what has transpired", said Owain.
The six Ylisseans left for their home in a saddened state. Unknown to them, a certain red headed Devil had resurrected Issei and took him home to rest.
A/N: How about that for a chapter? Also, anyone else excited about the Smash Ultimate trailer? Chrom finally got his chance! With that being said, hope you guys have been leading wonderful lives. Peace!
WhiteRavenSong: I usually give Robin the skill increase so he doesn't miss as much. Works wonders when you marry Sully and end up giving Kjelle both Aegis and Pavise.
Fun Fact: In this story, all the future children will make at least one appearance over the course of the story. Maybe a few Shepherds too.
