Sorry for the REAALLLY late update, i was kinda lazy, REALLY lazy and tired writing the fanfic because i had really lot things that us humans calls, STUDYING. but i know that i will be hated by 2k+ of people in US and thousands around the globe if i abandoned so. PLUS! There is a few more days before the major exams!. HOOOLLLLLYYYYYY SSHHAATT. THIS EXAM IS IMPORTANT FOR ME SO I CAN ACHIEVE MY DREAM AS AN ARCITECH IN JAPAN. YES, JAPAN. I will be working as an innovating arcitech that will build skyscrapers up high to HEAVEN. MWAHAHAHAH. PFftttt, if that dream is not too much. my talent and skills in creativity and art is incredibly good but my maths, S.U.C.K. they say. Yupp, that is my only weakness, .
So, i will make it simply clear in this story that:
This is not a Rias bashing story.
Issei will not be an anti-hero
Issei will not have dark thoughts on his friends
Issei is still depress and he will cry, sobs, sulking and having schizophrenias about Raynare :P
And finally, ISSEI AND THE GROUP WILL MAKE IT UP TOGETHER BUT IN THE END, IT WILL COME OUT A BIT TRAGIC.
So, i may have tell you guys spoilers but this is just HINTS, nothing to be a cry baby about. PFFFTT. Plus, im already planning another DXD fanfic. i will adress it in my Profile later. It is called, High School DXD Musical. Yeaa thats right. MUSICAL BIATCHES.
I am being generous for now so if..IF u guys can guess who is my favorite girl character then i will write a part where she will kiss Issei first... on the LIPS AND TONGUE.
Thats just all, so enjoy the story.
(I do not own Highschool DXD)
{In a hospital where the ORC gang is}
"Do you think Ise-kun was unaware of Rias-buchou's feelings towards Ise-kun?." Akeno said, sitting on a chair next to Koneko's bed.
"Eh, what makes you think like that Akeno-san?." The one who asked was Asia, standing next to Akeno.
In the room was the O.R.C group (or can i say Betraying Issei Group. Pfffttt) excluding Rias, all of the group members was fully healed but Koneko. She got quite the damage by Sairaorg in the match that day . She was brutally beaten in 2 fights between Sairaorg's peerage. Koneko was laying on the bed, conscious while the other members was next to her bed. Kiba was standing with Gasper a bit far from the girls while Xenovia and Irina was sitting on some chairs next to the bed.
They were talking about Issei's, Akeno's and Kiba's devil-class promotion for awhile but after Azazel who told them that Issei was totally fine in the Grigori and the promotion, left the room, they talked about Issei's condition but was relieved that he was okay. They were all worried about Issei when he suddenly had his heart 'imploded' that day. Literally 'imploded'. But in the same time, they need to fix something for their master so their group can re-operate as usual. But ignoring Issei's feelings, little they know, his nightmare, his trauma, his under-the-bed monster, his fallen-loved one, is STILL haunting him until this day but the devils who are Issei's friends, are naturally selfish. It is something that will forever stay like that. Irina who is a re-incarnated angel who was always live under the same roof with the devils have been influenced to be selfish. I mean, the world, the universe is cruel and dark even at the brightest moments and forever, it is permanent as the world has cursed its self to be cruel. Akeno then spoke with her serious tone.
"Ise-kun didn't notice that Rias had feelings for him. If this continues, this will be bad."
"But we all had feelings for Issei-senpai. Senpai must notice our feelings for him..." Koneko spoke up with her monotone voice. Her forehead was wrapped with bandages.
"Agree but we have to fix this matter between Ise-kun and Rias-buchou or this group will not function properly without Rias-Buchou focusing." Xenovia said with her left arm crossed while the right was holding on to her chin.
"But, but don't you see Ise-san that day?, He..he was heart-broken!, we need to apologize to him.".
"..Issei-senpai..looks despaired that day.." Koneko said. staring down the bed. Even though she hadn't her cat form on well, it looks like her cat ears are down i mean, she looks shoo cute.
"Yes.. we will apologize to Ise-kun when we visit him after Koneko-chan will be released tomorrow."Akeno said with a small tear forms on her left eye but not enough, to make everyone notice.
"Come on, lets find Rias-buchou to tell her first." Kiba said with to the girls and Gasper which all of them nods.
{Phoenix Castle}
"Do i look good in this Isabella?.." Said Ravel. standing in front of a large mirror in her room with another person which is Isabella. she is currently wearing a pink high neck dress with a red high heels for her shoes.
"I think you look pretty in the dress Ravel-sama (i dont know what Isabella calls Ravel, so yea.) but, why is the sudden call?." Isabella asked. her attire consist in her battle suit and still with her half mask on. Ravel then walks to her bed an sat there with her face had a blush on it.
"...I...i'm going to visit Issei-sama in the Grigori later so it..it's important for me to look good..." Ravel said with staring down.
"I see, do you need my assist to escort you, Ravel-sama?."
"No, i will go on my own, Azazel-sensei will be fetching me later.., I just want to ask your opinion about my dress, thats all.."
"Why don't you ask Lady Phenex?, she is more detailed in giving opinions."
"No!, if i asked mother she will only tease me more plus, i will have to tell her about the incident that day..." Ravel said with her tsundere tone just for awhile.
"Are you still feeling guilty about that day..?" Isabella asked now sitting beside Ravel. There was a moment of silence for about 10 seconds until Ravel spoke out.
"I regret for not protecting Issei-sama that day, if i did, it will not happen like this. That day, he was heartbroken, i saw it in his eyes. It was the feeling of fear and despair. I never felt that feeling before but i saw it right thru him. Which is why i need to fix this for Issei-sama and Rias-sama." Ravel said then the room went silent. Isabella was listening to it all. She then spoke out.
"It was never your fault to begin with Ravel-sama. If the boy who you had a crush on needs mental help, then go get him. Help with to get over with his feelings. When it is the day where you need him the most, He will come for you no matter what. That Issei Hyoudou you know, is more than just a man. And your dress, It really fits you and i'm sure he will look up to you." Isabella said with a smill.
"Tha..Thank you..Isabella.." Ravel replied with a small smile then adjusts her hair.
"You are welcome, if it's just that all then I will take my leave now Ravel-sama." Isabella said then sat up and left the room. Ravel nods and just sat on the bed, waiting for Azazel to fetch her.
(Grigori Medical Section)
The Next Day...3PM
"..Is..is this really necessary Kuroka..?." Issei said blushing madly and eyes narrowed in annoyance.
"Nyaa~, it is for your own good, nya."Kuroka said seductively.
In the room was Issei and Kuroka. They were doing senjutsu healing treatment. Unlike the healing treatment that Issei and Koneko usually do, Kuroka was only hugging Issei from his right shoulder and by hugging you know what that means right?, Issei's right shoulder was bare so the Ki can flow better from Kuroka's body to Issei.
"Why are you suddenly stop being a pervert Issei-chin,nyaa , the last time i saw you you were nose bleeding just by a hug, or should i strip naked to you, nyaa~." Kuroka said then held her obi. Issei leaned a bit far from Kuroka's embrace and shouted
"...N-n-n-no!, thank you but no!, so just please continue with the treatment okay?, Kuroka?." Issei said then leaned back to Kuroka. Kuroka just giggled and enjoyed teasing him. The two continued their 'task' for the next 30 minutes quietly. Then Issei blew up the silence in the room.
"Kuroka, can i ask you a question?.."
"Nyaa.?"
"About you and Koneko-chan, what exactly happen to Koneko that night when you left her?, why did you killed your master?, For a girl to love and care about her younger sister, you put her in deep trauma because of what you did that night. I don't understand why would you do that to Koneko-chan." Issei asked. Kuroka lowered her head at the mention which Issei put a regret on.
"A-ahh i'm sorry for asking such question, If you don't want to answer a private question like that than it i-."
"He was a despicable bastard." Kuroka said with a serious face on. No longer in her smiley face with that NYAN voice.
"..?.."
"That night..." Kuroka began to explain why she killed her master. It was a good 30 minutes talk between them. Issei was hearing to it all, he did not interrupt what Kuroka siad. After Kuroka finished they went silent.
"So that is why Koneko-chan is so afraid of using her powers so bad..."
"It is unavoidable in the first place nyaa."Kuroka said finally having her nyaa voice. The moment went silent again for a moment
"Kuroka, what if i help you to bond with Koneko-chan again?." Issei said.
"Nyaa?."
"What if i help you to bond with Koneko-chan, to atone your crimes that you have done on Koneko and the Underworld. then you can help her with her senjutsu training at my place. If it is for the sake of my friend, than i will do it. I'll help you reunite with your sister okay, Kuroka?." Said Issei in a manly manner. Kuroka blinked and sighed.
"*sigh*, in the end i will fall in love for you Issei-chin, everybody will.. Le Fay will also fall for you.. Eeeveryooone-nya."
"If that happens then i will have my bed full, which is something bad." Issei laughed a bit.
"Fine nyaa, but why cut the perverted side of you Issei-chin?, i noticed it since i came here, nya." Kuroka asked. Issei stared down because of the mention. There was a moment of silence for about 20 seconds until Issei answered.
"...So people will take it serious on me.."Issei said with a low tone. Kuroka blinked at it.
"So people will take it serious on me, enemies will never underestimate me ever again. It is a decision that i have decided Kuroka, If people will never see how pathetic i am, every painful incident that happened to Asia, Gasper, Kiba, Xenovia, Akeno, Rias, your sister Koneko and me will never happen again. all those incidents that happened to them is because i am weak, pathetic, perverted and lowly, It is all because of my desires that kept me away from being strong ,so that is why i swear upon my life that i will leave this perverted side and be strong for others sake. Seeing my friends happy and unharmed from world's cruelty, that is what i want, Kuroka. And about your relationship between you and Koneko, i will helped you to build the family bond of you and Koneko. If it is for my friend's hapiness, then i will do whatever i can." At the last sentence, Issei raised his head to look at Kuroka. Which Kuroka blinked her eyes and blushed a bit. She then tighten her embrace to Issei. "..Wh-..what's wrong Kuroka?!." Issei said blushily.
"I can't help it nyaa, your face got very manly. I think i want to make kittens with you now nyaa~." Kuroka said, placing her head on Issei's shoulder. 'Please help mee!, anyone!.' Issei thought in his head. It was then, there was a rip in the room, It was a rip from the Dimensional Gap!.
"Kuroka, put him down or he's gonna have a second heart attack.". The one who talked was Vali. Out came from the rip was Vali, Bikou, Arthur and Ophis herself with Issei's Ipod with her. Kuroka back away from Issei a bit and fixed her kimono and tighten her obi.
"How are you doing, Hyoudou Issei?." Vali greeted to Issei while walking to him with his left hand raised. Bikou and Arthur also greeted him.
"Ah, Vali, going to hit me while i'm like this?." Issei said.
"If i would, it will be a cowardly act so i better not." Vali replied with a smirk.
"So Vali, what brings you here with the others?. If it is visiting me then there is more right?." Issei said while looking at the others. It was then Ophis was walking towards Issei.
"I, want to charge this." Ophis said. Issei just smiled at her presence.
"Here's the charger Ophis." Issei then handed it to Ophis.
"You sure have attracted the attention of the Dragon-God itself Oppai-dragon?, Kakaka." Bikou said smilingly.
[I, didn't hear that.] Ddraig said outloud. He was speaking like Ophis already.
"Don't say that to much Bikou, Ddraig will be really upset for that and he also started to nightmares of it." Issei said while looking at his back palm.
"We came here to visit you, It is important for us to keep our rivals alive and this here is for you Hyoudou Issei.. Get well soon." Vali said then, a magic circle appeared on his palm. It was something like a magazine but was wrapped with a gift wrapper. Vali then handed it to Issei. Which in Issei's thought he already knew what it is.
'This magazine's thickness...the width...the length...could it be?.' Issei's face was madly red.
"Th-thanks..." Issei said then putting it at on top of the table next to the bed.
" And also... Azazel invited us to a party in here tonight, the Grigori Research Center since it is it's 200th year and you are also coming with us."
"I see, i never knew you're a party person Vali."
"The world is vast Hyoudou Issei, you should know that every person has something hidden in itself. I will be taking my leave, i have something to discuss with Azazel." Vali said and headed to the door with Bikou and Arthur.
"Don't masturbate to much Oppai-Dragon!, its bad for your health." Bikou said and they all left the room leaving a sweat dropping Issei and a Kuroka ,AND Ophis who was listening to the music. Issei then look at Ophis, sitting on a chair at near the coffee table then look at the table where he place the "magazine" but, it was already gone.
"What?, where the heck?." Issei muttered, he was going to hide the magazine as he knew what kind of magazine it was. He really need to dispose it or give it to Azazel. he then looks at Kuroka who was sitting on a chair next to Issei's bed. She was reading the magazine which made Issei's eyes went wide and when he look carefully on what she's reading, he exhaled in relief, it was just an ordinary cooking magazine.
"Nya~, it's not an ero magazine, you naughty Issei-chin~." Kuroka said with a smirk then continued to read lazily while her tail just whip left and right. 'Vali that bastard' Issei thought as he taught it was a magazine that he feared of. He leaned back to the bed's headboard. When he began to drift into sleep, the door opened. Issei opened his eyes to look at who was coming. "Good Evening, Issei-sama." It was Ravel!. Issei was shocked at who was coming he then yelled in his thoughts, don't know what he should express, joy or fear. 'Ravel?, does that means the others are here too?.". Ravel walked to Issei while noticing Kuroka and Ophis was in the room.
"Good evening Ravel, did you came here with the others?." Issei said to Ravel who was standing beside Issei but across to Kuroka.
"U-umm i came here alone , Rias-sama and the others say they will come visit you tonight, Issei-sama." Ravel said, a bit intimated with the presence of Kuroka and an unknown Ophis. She was a bit scared with Kuroka there. 'So the others will come here late huhh..'. Issei thought before setting his view back to Ravel who was sitting next to him.
"Umm, Issei-sama, why is Koneko-san's big sister is here and who is that?." Ravel said and look at Kuroka. Kuroka made a quite scary face to Ravel before continue to read.
"Erhh, they're here because.." Issei began to explain to Ravel about why are those two here and Ophis's objective. After he finish the explanation, Ravel spoke up.
"So that is why they are here huh, If Issei-sama is with me then it will be fine then." Ravel said in relief.
"Yes, so please cooperate alright Ravel?." Ravel nods. Then she speaks again after about five seconds, this time her tone was a bit lower.
"I-i'm sorry." Issei blinked in confusion.
"about the other day, i'm sorry for not protecting you that day, who knew that you can be heart-broken." Ravel said staring down. Ophis was not paying attention and Kuroka moved to another chair next to Ophis, giving the two space to clear up. Issei then spoke up and put his left hand on Ravel's shoulder. Ravel look up to Issei's face, her face was filled with sadness and sorrow because of the guilt that she thinks she carries. Issei then spoke.
"It was never your fault to begin with Ravel."
"...?.."
"It was my fault for being so dense and dumb plus, i can't be mad at you for the things that you didn't do. Let's just forget about it, i don't want to see you sad and feel guilty over a thing that was not your fault. Okay, Ravel?." Issei said smilingly.
'would you die for me?.'
"..But-but.."
"Shussh Ravel, if you want to talk about this then lets wait until the others come. I would feel bad for myself for seeing my beautiful junior sad okay?." Issei said and place both of his hands on Ravel's shoulders. Ravel blushed seeing him being selfless and manly. She had a crush on him ever since the battle with Raiser.
"Al-alright Issei-sama." Ravel said, then Issei moved his hands away.
"So Ravel, why are you dressing this beautiful for just visiting me?, i am sure you didn't came from anywhere else." Issei said and leaned at the headboard. Ravel was wearing a yellow high-neck dress with a gem on the middle of the chest area. Which is more fit to older woman since Ravel was still young, Issei noticed it quickly when she came here.
"I-I I, sheesh, It's a princess's priority to wear nicely!, That's why i can't stand it with low-class devils, they are so dense with the Underworld's culture. Hmmph!." Ravel said and cross her arms. back in her tsundere mode. ' i guess she's back huhh' Issei thought.
"P-plus, there will be a party tonight so i have dressed for the occasion."
"You are invited to?."
"Of course!, it is my duty as your manager to look over you. So, i will be coming with you to the party." Ravel said thumping her chest with her hands.
"Wait, when did you become my manager?." Issei said confusingly.
"Sirzechs-sama inducted me as your manager to manage your Oppai-dragon tv show so, from to day on i will be managing and helping you on your devil businesses." Ravel said with her eyes sparkling.
"That Maou sure does everything without my permission huhh.." Issei said with his head shooking.
(7PM)
The night of the party, Issei, Ravel and Kuroka, AND an Ophis was walking towards the ballroom. Issei was wearing much nicer cloths then wearing the hospital's. He got it from Azazel earlier. He can walk safely now as he will be released soon. Issei was wearing a black leather jacket, half zipped and under it was a jet black t-shirt. He also wears a black jeans and Converse shoes, which looks nice on him. Ravel was wearing her dress earlier. Kuroka was wearing her kimono as usual but was more covering her breast while Ophis was wearing...well ya know, she also had the Ipod with her which Issei gave to her earlier.
"We're here." Ravel spoke when they stopped at a large door. which there was a receptionist and some decorations in front of the door. Ravel then walked to the receptionist to give the invitation card. Issei, Ophis and Kuroka stood there while waiting for Ravel. Issei then looked at Ophis and Kuroka.
"Is it ok for you two to come in?, you both know that there are other fallen angel leaders beside Azazel-sensei right?."
"Nya, it is fine, Azazel already took care of that problem-nya."
"Oh, that's good news then."
"Alright, lets go inside everyone" Ravel said to them.
'I hope no wild parties, oh shit..'
Then the large door was opened by the receptionists, Inside was not a wild party, which Issei was relieved as he is still in care of Ophis. The ballroom was huge with a sky light which shows the beautiful night. The are plenty of people inside, talking to each other while having drinks. Inside, there was also harmonic music playing and some round tables at a section. There was also a stage, decorated for some kind of purpose. the food and drinks corner were at the ball room's left side. When Issei walked in first, he was spotted by some younger fallen angels in their age like Le Fay.
""""ITS THE OPPAI DRAGON!""""
""""KYAAAAA OPPAI DRAGON!""""
"Uh oh."
[Hear that, i didn't.] Ddraig said in Issei's mind. ' WHAT ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE, YODA?!'
Issei was crowded by bunch of people, asking for his photograph and such. The other three already spotted Azazel and the Vali-team, having their food on the table so they went there while Issei was doing his fan-service thingy.
"Oh Ise you're here." Azazel said before drinking his beverage. Issei who was bringing his meal then took a seat beside Azazel.
"Uhh, it was tiring Azazel-sensei, you didn't tell me that younger fallen angels liked my show too." Issei said then look around the table. There was the Vali-team, Ravel and an Ophis, having their dinner. Issei was sitting between Ophis and Azazel. while Ravel was next to Ophis.
"What?, you don't like it?, i'm pretty sure some of them are you're type." Azazel said with a wide lecherous grin.
"Hell no Azazel-sensei, i'm trying to become more a gentleman now, since acting pervertly all the time is something that i need to stop to do." Issei said and then clasp his hands "Itadakimasu".
"Wow, that's unlikely of you. Well, how is it going with Ophis on the first day?." Azazel asked which made Issei stop eating for a while.
"Azazel-sensei, Ophis... Are you sure she is the boss of The Khaos Brigade?." Issei said seriously.
"..?.."
"Ophis, i talked to her this morning..."
=Flashback=
"Ophis, may i ask you something?." Issei asked. Issei and Ophis was walking outside in a garden. Issei decided to take a walk until Ophis tagged in. Observing him. Issei noticed her innocent behavior unlike the Khaos Brigade members. Issei noticed all of this and he was curious about her main goal and it was the time to ask.
"?"
"Ophis, as the leader of Khaos Brigade, what is your main goal actually?."
"My main goal. Defeat Great-Red and go home."
"Defeat Great-Red?, why?."
"Great-Red has stolen my silence. Defeating Great-Red will give my silence back. And i can return home."
'Her home?..'
"Where is your home Ophis?."
"Dimensional Gap. My birth place. I will claim my home and obtain silence from Great-Red."
"THat?...Is your only goal?."
Ophis nods.
"Then why would you join Khaos Brigade?."
"They say thay can help me defeat Great-Red. If i give them snakes. Then they will help me defeat Great-Red. That is why i joined them. They immidiately make me their leader." They both stopped walking. Issei deeply thought
'She is not a leader of a terrorist group like Khaos Brigade. She is innocent and naive. She has no desire to battle or destroying the world even she can do so. Her existence is pure. Could it be that Khaos Brigade is using her?...I really need her to stay with me and be my friend.'
"Hey Ophis."
"Yes"
"Do you want to be my friend?."
"What is. A friend?."
"A friend is somebody who you can talk to and admit your feelings to them. As well as protect them from any harm."
"That sounds nice." Ophis said. Issei then took out something from his pocket.
"Here Ophis, you seem to take interest in this and i want you to take it. As our sign of friendship." Ophis then took it from his hands and stared at the Ipod which had the earphones of course.
"Ddraig's Ipod?."Ophis said and look up to Issei.
"Yes, i want you to have it, you like to hear to songs right?, then i want you to take good care of it. And also, you can call me Issei if that is fine." Issei said with a smile.
"Okay. Issei."
=End Of Flashback=
"So what i am thinking was, Ophis was used by the Khaos Brigade. Ophis was being used the whole time, i can sense that the Khaos Brigade is lying to her." Issei said and turned his head to look at Ophis who was hearing to a song "Radioactive-Imagine Dragons".
"I see, then this is something that the three-factions might consider. Good work Ise, i'm proud of you." Azazel said and gulps a glass of wine.
"Thanks Azazel-sensei, and also, it was nice to know that Ophis was not a big threat to us. Plus, i might take her as my friend and she can also stay at my place."
"Ohh, you mean taking her into your harem ehh, you bastard." Azazel said with a large grin like he was in some kind of comedy anime.
"Sh-shut up!" Issei said with his face red and drinked a glass of grape juice. 'maybe taking Ophis into my harem would be nice..NO!, BAD ISSEI BAD!, taking such innocent girl into my harem is a no no!.'. Then a flash came thru his head.
'Issei-san?' It was Asia.
'A-asia..'
"Ise?." Azazel asked. Snapping him out from his thoughts.
"What?."
"Do you see that stage there?." Azazel asked. Issei nods
"Since you started to take a liking in rock music, why not take a shot up there, Shemhaza and i have prepared the instrumentals. Plus, it would light up the mood here." Azazel said with a smirk.
"Actually, i'd like too."Issei said then whispers at Azazel about the songs that he wants to perform. Azazel gave a large smirk at Issei.
"It can be done. Well, lets go." Issei nods and both of them then leaves the group and headed somewhere.
"Nya, where are you going Issei-chin~." Kuroka asked.
"Erhh, just got some business to do for awhile, I'll see you guys soon!."
"Mnghh, Issei-sama!, Azazel-sensei!, don't leave me here!" Ravel yelled out, fearing the Vali-team.
"Don't worry Ravel!, Le Fay's there, at least she is not a weirdo!." Issei said and left the group.
Ten minutes later, the group was just chatting and enjoy the food there while Ophis was drifting in her own thoughts while listening to the songs. It was then the lights in the ball room dimmed a bit, At least the light from the moon that shone through the sky light gave some light.
Then, their was a sound of the speaker turning on. Back at the stage, the stage was light up with blue neon light and there was a person standing there, It was Azazel. The crown and the Vali-team payed attention to it.
"Hello everyone. It is i, Govener Azazel. I would like to thank you you guys to come to this party to celebrate the 200th year of the Grigori Research Center. Aandd.. we have a special guest tonight. Please accept this performance from this special guest!... HYOUDOU ISSEI!." Azazel announced like a host, Azazel then got down from the stage. The crowd and the Vali-team were suprised at the announcement. Ophis unplugged her earphones because the mention of Issei. Then a person appeared from the backstage, It was Issei!.
((PLAY!: Angels Fall by Breaking Benjamin))
"WHAT?!, ISSEI-SAMA!?." Ravel yelled out and look at the stage. The crowds gathered infront of the stage to see Issei perform. The group also gathered in front of the stage.
I try to face the fight within
But it's over
I'm ready for the riot to begin
And surrender
I walked the path that led me to the end
Remember
I'm caught beneath with nothing left to give
Forever
When angels fall with broken wings
I can't give up, I can't give in
When all is lost and daylight ends
I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever
Grey skies will chase the light away
No longer
I fought the fight now only dark remains
Forever
Divided I will stand
And I will let this end
When angels fall with broken wings
I can't give up, I can't give in
When all is lost and daylight ends
I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever
The sun begins to rise
And wash away the sky
The turning of the tide
Don't leave it all behind
And I will never say goodbye
When angels fall with broken wings
I can't give up, I can't give in
When all is lost and daylight ends
I'll carry you and we will live forever, forever
Forever, forever
The crowds gave a large clap and cheers at the song the Issei perform. Ophis and the group was awed with Issei's talent. Issei then yelled out.
"How about another song guys?, what do you say!?." Issei said and raised the mic to the crowds. The crowd cheers and Issei just smiled. Then, another song played.
((PLAY!: We Fall Apart by We As Humans))
The world's on fire but we're all smiling
Though it's all our fault
But life is short so we resort to laughing through it all
It's the battle within the good and the sin
With both sides standing strong
It's the permanent scars
How broken we are
It's the things that hurt us all
But isn't it beautiful
The way we fall apart
It's magical and tragic all the ways we break our hearts
So unpredictable
We're comfortably miserable
We think we're invincible
Completely unbreakable
And maybe we are
Isn't it beautiful
The way we fall apart
You're a liar but I'm a coward so I can't throw a stone
We're so imperfect but so worth it because we're not alone
It's the wars that we wage, the lives that we take
For better or for worse
It's the lion we cage, the love and the rage
That keeps us wanting more
But isn't it beautiful
The way we fall apart
It's magical and tragic all the ways we break our hearts
So unpredictable
We're comfortably miserable
We think we're invincible
Completely unbreakable
And maybe we are
But isn't it beautiful
The way we fall apart
The world is dark but all it takes
Your love to spark
To set my heart on fire once again
Ophis was listening to Issei calmly. She was amazed and attracted to the song that Issei performed.
But isn't it beautiful
The way we fall apart
Isn't it beautiful
Oh, isn't it wonderful
The way we fall apart
It's magical and tragic all the ways we break our hearts
So unpredictable
We're comfortably miserable
We think we're invincible
Completely unbreakable
And maybe we are
But isn't it beautiful
The way we fall apart
Isn't it beautiful
The way we fall apart
When the song ends there, the crowd gave a wild cheers to Issei and yelled out his name repeatedly.

[I, didn't hear that either.]. Ddraig said in Ophis's ascent.
"One more time!, and this is the last one people!." Issei said to the crowds in joy. ANOTHER song played again.
((PLAY!: Down With The Fallen by Starset))
"Who knew that my rival could be a huge celebrity..." Vali scoffed.
"Nya~, Issei-chin is far forwards from you in terms of popularity-nya." Kuroka teased the Hakuryouukou.
{I rather not having the world calling me in a weird name anyway.} Albion spoke out. Sympathizing his rival.
Tired eyes, barely open
Crippled by a promise broken
I have seen an empire falling
Hopeless, can you hear me calling?
Turn away from all that I know
Burning this bridge behind me
Light the way and I'll follow
Where you go
Can you tell me what is real?
Cause I've lost my way again
Can you tell me how to feel?
Cause I don't feel anything
Now that I'm down here again
I'm down with the fallen again
Searching through the darkness below
For a light in seas of shadows
Far from you, but I could never
Abdicate, I'll fight forever
Turn away from all that I know
Burning this bridge behind me
Light the way and I'll follow
Where you go
Can you tell me what is real?
Cause I've lost my way again
Can you tell me how to feel?
Cause I don't feel anything
Now that I'm down here again
I'm down with the fallen again
I will not run
I will not fall
I will not bury it
This is war!
At this moment where Issei sang this part, the crowd went wild and awed on how Issei sang beautifully.
War!
This is war!
War!
Tell me what is real?
Cause I've lost my way again
Can you tell me how to feel?
Cause I don't feel anything
Now that I'm down here
Tell me what is real?
Cause I've lost my way again
Can you tell me how to feel?
Cause I don't feel anything
Now that I'm down here again
I'm down with the fallen again
Ooooo
"Thank you!." Issei simply said and left the stage and the crowd cheered for Issei while he left. the group went back to their table. Waiting for Issei and Azazel. They were talking about Issei's performance.
After 15 minutes, Issei walked to the group smilingly, don't know what to say when they react to his performance.
"Hey guys." Issei said.
"Issei-sama!, why didn't you tell us that you can sing!?" Ravel said in her 'all mighty' tone.
"Cause i don't have the chance to do so." Issei said.
"Issei-san!, you're performance on the stage just now was awesome!." Le Fay said to Issei with her eyes sparkling.
"Haha, thanks Le Fay." Issei smiled sheepishly.
"Nya~, i hope our kittens can sing like you to Issei-chin -nya." Kuroka said seductively.
"Not again Kuroka..." Issei sweat dropped.
'Though it was a dissapointment that they weren't here...' Issei thought as he was dissapointed that his friends were not yet arrived.
Issei was now in the room. Though the party isn't over yet, he went to the room to take his time alone and taking his medicine and Ddraig's. There was one thing bothering him, and it was the depression that he hid all the time. Can he confront to Rias after the incident that day?, he doesn't know. The one reason he never went to far when the girls are around him that he was afraid when he does that, he will break it all, breaking the friendship and the good memories between him and them. He just wants to keep the relationship stay and goes on forever. To him, having a girl sleeping by your side doesn't mean she loves you. He's trauma, was enough to make him suffer badly.
'Would you die for me?.'
Issei cringed a bit at the flash. He cursed himself, why would someone go out on a date with him at the first place. Everytime he thought about that, he couldn't help but just remembering the trauma.
Unknown to Issei, a plan was plotting behind him, not knowing to call it evil or for good. Meanwhile in Azazel's office.
"Shemhaza, when they will be arriving?."
"The Heir of Gremory and her peerage are on their way Azazel."
"Good"
'this is all for you Issei, please understand that no one looks you patheticly.' Azazael thought. there was a person beside him.
"Ya ready Ophis?."
"Yes. I have sense dark aura from him. It was something in his past that haunts him. His chance to born "hope" is impossible if 'that' stays inside him.". Ophis said and walks out. Azazel just let out a huge smile of sastiffication.
Back in Issei's room, Issei was standing infront of the window, enjoying the night time view which was beautiful. He then snapped out when he heard the door opened. He turned his head to look at the door. It was Ophis.
"What is it Ophis?."
"Sit down." Ophis said. Issei didn't argue at all he sat on the foot of the bed.
"What now?."
"We need to talk."
Oh look, a cliffhanger. how cruel i am.. Hohoho. Great singing part ehh?. Well you can just fuck off, read and review. THANK YOU!.
