CHAPTER 5: Pawns AND Sona Sitri
"Yes I want you to two to meet Issei Hyoudou " said Yasaka while pointing towards Ise. "And Issei meet Naruki Uzumaki and Satuski Uchiha." introduced Yasaka while pointing towards both of girls.
"Hey there, I'm Issei Hyoudou. " Issei simply introduced himself.
"I'm Naruki Uzumaki -tattbayo" said Naruki cheerfully. Issei was shocked at her behavior, he thought if she was treated as a demon than her self-confidance will be broken but seeing her acting like a full of spirit, is really surprised him.
" Hn, Name's Satuski Uchiha" Satuski simply stated, simply in uchiha traditions. Issei can see the darkness building inside her and he frowned, but knew since her family was slaughter in front of her... this type of behavior he can expect but he wouldn't let her fall into the never ending darkness.
" well, girls I called you both here to talk about your future" Yasaka said with a serious face.
"Our future!?" asked Naruki curiously. Satuski just stare at her.
"Yes! You see, both of you moving into Issei's house" Yasaka said to both girls.
"Eeeeehh!? But... Why!? " asked Satuski and Naruki in unison, who scratched her head.
Issei just stare at her(Yasaka) what she was trying to do and about to ask but Yasaka noticed his facial expressions and continue, ignoring girls question "don't worry Ise-chan, I already got your grandparent's permission... So you don't have to worry about it"
And then looked towards both of girls while maintaining a serious face.
"You want to have a family? Don't you naruki-chan? I'm 100% sure that they will treat you like one, I know Issei family for a long time... so you don't have to worry about" said Yasaka with a smile .
"Really!? They'll? " asked Naruki in a soft and low voice. However Issei noticed her insecurities about being half 'Kitsune'. And decided to interfere in their conversation. After all they are talking about his family and he'll damned if anyone think about his family treat anyone 'like that' (Just watch naruto childhood you'll understand).
"Yes, we'll treat you like a family member and I'm sure Kaa-chan and Tau-chan are going to treat you like their own daughter just like Rumi-Chan and Val-Chan... Just don't reveal your true form in their presence" declared Issei.
Naruki eyes widened exponentially as she looked up at Issei, tears slowly welling in her eyes as she dropped the bag she was carrying in shock. Her hands slowly came up to cover her mouth as she couldn't believe what was happening to her right now. Her silent plea for having a family had finally come true, and she was overwhelmed with emotion.
Issei stepped forward and placed a hand on one of her shoulders, making her watery eyes look up at she saw compassion, understanding and… love. and the silent message that he would never leave her alone , no matter how impossible it may seem. She thanked whoever that was above for letting her stumble upon on having a family, in the first place, and for that she was forever grateful. She embrace Issei in tight hug. But before she can say anything Satuski spoke.
" What will I get if I move into his house" Satuski asked as she pointed to Issei while looking at Yasaka.
"Don't you want a new family ?" asked Issei
"But I want is to kill a certain person" Satuski stated . Issei about to shout at her but remember what she went through and spoke in very calm and serious voice "Tell me Satuski Uchiha... this is what your family want ? This is what your mother want you to become? Who just care about her revenge and killing instead of find happiness? I'm not telling you to completely abounding the idea of killing that person but you can not just forget about yourself... being broody, won't bring your family back"
Hearing that Satuski eyes widened.
Flashback Begin
"Kaa-chann... " said a teary girl
" Satuski... don't be picky with what you eat, to eat lots and grow strong… make sure that you take a bath everyday and keep yourself warm… also you couldn't stay up too late and you need lots of sleep… make friends, Ones that you could trust… you also need to study and train hard… everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, so You shouldn't get too depressed or frustrated if you couldn't get something right the first time. ...okay sweety "
Satuski just nodded and spoke
"Don't leave me Kaa-chann... please Kaa-chann... Satuski will be good girl... Satuski won't ask for any more toys and sweets... just don't leave me.. I'll never make troubles for you, ... please don't leave me alone" Satuski pleaded in soft voice, tears prickling in the corner of her eyes.
What could she say ? she too don't want to leave her daughter too... But what She almost at the stage to dying and breathing her last breath while having her last moment with her daughter...
"promise me one thing... Satuski-chan"
"What ? Kaa-chann"
"You will find happiness... instead of fall into madness of revenge and... "
"I will Kaa-chann.. I will"
Flashback Ends
How she could forget this? How could she become what, she promised her mother she won't. Yet in front of a boy at same age as her... made her remember that promise not to mention giving a chance to have a family .
Next thing what she did, was not just suprised him but Yasaka and Naruki too.
She smiled and bowed and said "Arigato... Issei-Sama.. you just made me realize what I was forgetting and missing... hope your family will..."Before she continue Issei cut her saying "It's 'Our ' family from now Satuski-Chan... And please don't use 'sama' from now we'll be family " That bring another smile and blushed as she heard using 'chan' with her name, on her face .
Seeing this, Yasaka smiled and spoke
"Aren't you a charmer Issei ?" teased Yasaka making Issei and Satuski blushed while Yasaka just giggled.
"So what is your decision? . Satuski-chan!" said Yasaka,
"I will ... " stated Satuski, who still has pink blush in her face, Making both Issei and Naruki smile, who still was clinging to his right arm like a vice. don't want let him go for fear he would run off or disappear if she let go.
Issei understood what's in her kind, and spoke "Don't worry I'm not going to disappear. I promise." That lesser Naruki's worries and she let him go from her embrace. Yasaka just smile and giggle at their interaction.
Both of girls left for pack their stuff, leaving Yasaka and Issei alone.
"They know? about joining my peerage?" asked Issei curiously.
"Yes, I told them yesterday... But I also told them only if, not only you but both of them agree too" said Yadaka with a serious tone.
"that's why! they are moving in ?" Exclaimed Issei
"Yes... you'll get chance spend more time with them.. so.. "
"You both are lucky you know... getting chance with living with my 'Ise-Kun' " said Kunou, looking at both girls who were busy in packing their stuff.
"You are telling us like he is some sort of hero.. Kunou-sama" said Satuski curiously as Kunou never compliment someone let alone a boy .
"Yes! he is .. " said Kunou immediately, while remembering how he saved her.
"Really Kunou-sama? " asked Naruki when she heard Kunou.
"How so...!? " asked Satuski... who didn't know why she wanted to know... she just wanted to know.
"Yes... remember I told you I was attacked by some devils? " both of them nodded "Well, he was the one who save me from those disgusting creatures "both Naruto and Satuski eyes widened at what just they heard... the boy they just met, was the one who saved Kunou as she mentioned the devils that attacked her were strong.
After that incident Kunou started to show deep hatred towards devil... it didn't help as she heard about Vali incident but that didn't mean she hates Vali. No she won't hate that girl that become one of her best friend but she hated Vali' s family for treating her like that.
"here I only get chance to sleep over at his house 5-6 times in a month... while phis-Chan... Rumi-chan ... Tia-Chan can sleep with him every night. heck Val-Chan is now sleeping in his bed... I'm the only one who left out " mutter Kunou.. enough to heard by both girls...
"Sleep with him?... " started Naruki...
"In same bed ...? " finished Satuski
Both of girls were now blushing red.
"You know he is so warm " said Kunou, still in her thought...
That's it! Naruki couldn't take it and fainted. Satuski immediately rushed to her and cought her before she fell .
"Naruki wake up! wake up! damn it! Look Kunou-sama what you did !?" Satuski shouted, still have blush on her face.
When Kunou came out from her dream, found Naruki on bed while Satuski was shaking her and yelling at her.
"What happened? Satuski- Chan? " Kunou asked innocently. Satuski just looked at her for a minute then replied "Nothing Kunou-sama, we aren't supposed to hear about your boyfriend body being warm when you slept with him"
Kunou realised what she told them and blushed heavily.
At Hyoudou Resident Garden
"So You are Naruki and Satuski, Yasaka-san told us about" asked Max while looking at both girls.
"Haii, Sofu-sama" said Naruki with a bow. Luna just giggled and said "You don't have to so formal sweety.. " while patting Naruki head. Satuski was just staring at them. Seeing Satuski, Max spoke "And you..? "
"I'm Satuski Uchiha... please take care of me from now" said Satuski with a bow. Luna shocked at her voice since she already knew about her past and didn't expect her to behave normal, kind and polite. Issei smiled which didn't go unnoticed by Max as he spoke "Your doing...?" While looking at him and that cought Luna attention too. Issei just nodded and said "i just help her to remind of herself... noting else.. She was the one who ..." Before he can continue
Suddenly a giant ball of fire come towards Issei, Naruki saw this and crash tackled Issei down but she wasn't the only one who pulled him , resulting trio fell on the ground, Naruki on the top of him. While the giant fire ball hit the near couch and totally burn it. But surprisingly Naruki wasn't the only one who pulled Issei, Satuski too. Both of them each side of him 'too close', making the situation awkward. Issei noticed her eyes glowing red.
Satuski didn't know what was it. But she can feel some sort of attraction towards the boy. She didn't know why she acted this way. But she could let something happen to her family.
Luna immediately used her scared gear and froze the remaining couch. .
"Ise-Chan, Naruki-Chan, Satuski-chan... you guys are alright? " asked Luna in worried tone.
Suddenly three figures arrived there, that happen to be Ophis, Tiamat, and Kurumi. Vali wasn't at house at the moment, she was currently training with Amaterasu very hard... she wants to reach her balance breaker, not just for her, for her family too. Kurumi words motivated her on another level. She too want to protect her family, especially Issei... the one who is sole reason why she is feeling this way. Issei just didn't save her, he gave her a family too. And joining his peerage is the best thing she ever did in her life.
Kurumi saw Issei was on ground, laying. And spoke "What happened? And sorry about the couch .. the barrier just broke...and why was Issei on the ground?"
"Well, dear your fire ball just about to hit Ise- Chan... But thanks to Naruki-Chan and Satuski-chan... he was saved" said Luna in anger tone.
Kurumi froze. Her attacked about to hit her precious 'Ise-kun'. Oh my god, what Ise-kun will think about her? What if he hate her for that? What if the fire ball really hit him? that thought running on Kurumi's mind
"I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry! I'm Sorry! Ise-kun ... I'm really sorry I didn't mean it.. you know, I can't hurt you even in my dream Ise-kun.. please don't hate me... I rather hurt myse..." before she could finish she was pulled in tight hug of Issei. "Sssssshhhh... Rumi-Chan... I know you didn't do that on purpuse.. and I'm not gonna hate my cute queen.."
"Thank you Ise-kun " said Kurumi, hugging tighter, while blushing at his remark of ' my cute queen'.
"who are those both girls? " asked Ophis, she wanted to know who try to save her mate. She knew that type of attack is nothing for her mate but someone tried to save him without thinking twice.
"Ahh let me introduce... Naruki-Chan & Satuski-Chan, meet Ophis-Chan, Tiamat-Chan or Tia-Chan and Kurumi- Chan or Rumi-Chan " while pointing to Ophis, Tiamat and Kurumi respectively when he mentioned their names. "And everyone meet Naruki Uzumaki and Satuski Uchiha , both going to join our family." said Issei while pointing towards them...
Kurumi just bowed to them and said "Thanks for saving my Ise-kun from my fire "
"It's nothing Kurumi-San... And we are family and saving a family member is a job of another family member so you don't have to bow to me ... " said Naruki. Max and Luna both smiled when they heard Naruki.
"Hn" said Satuski.
'Hmm, a tsundere.. huh!?' both Max and Luna thought when they heard Satuski. Max just chuckled and Luna giggled.
Currently, Luna was introducing both Naruki Naruki and Satuski to Ise's parents at dinner table
" I didn't know you are a kendo champion mom" said Kin, when he was told his own mother once a Kendo champion .
"You bet, I'm... " Luna said childishly. it is awkward for them to seeing, behave her that but when she overexcited she behave like a child.
"And who is adorable golden blonde hair girl and cutie raven girl ?" asked Hitomi while looking at Naruki, who has nervous face how her new family gonna react to her. Luna saw this and she has a perfect story also the story will make them close to Hitomi too.
"The adorable golden blonde's name is Naruki Uzumaki and Cutie raven name's Satuski Uchiha. Both of them were orphan before I adopted both of them today.. " said Luna.
"Aren't our family getting bigger and bigger after we moved in here!?" joked Kai
"yeah but isn't what we always want? A BIG FAMILY?" replied Max. Kin grinned hearing and spoke.
"Yeah Dad, but I think Issei is already making an harem for himself and in fu..." Before Kin could finished his sentence, he earned smack his head by Hitomi of course.. Naruki and Satuski just stared at him at what he was talking about his son. while Issei choked the food he was eating.
Luna decided to drop a tiny bomb that will surely help both of the girls to bond with Issei's parents "Anyway, another reason is both of them SAVED Issei's life today so..." Before she could complete her sentence a yell can heard in entire mansion.
"W-WHAT!?" yelled Hitomi and Kai in unison.
Issei suddenly found himself in tight gasp of his mother, who checking on him while saying "Issei baby... what happened? did you get hurt? somewhere? Tell your Kaa-Chan everything NOW! " Shouted Hitomi, almost having hard time when she found out her little baby life was in danger.
"I'm fine Kaa-Chan... " stated Issei calmly and help her mother to clam down. Luna simplsimply stated he wasn't careful while crossing road that almost confirmed he was going to get punish without doing anything! much to Issei displeasure. and then he shot to her (Luna) with a look of disbelief. She just sold him out.
"Thank You! thank you! for saving my sochi " said Hitomi as she hugged Naruki . before Naruki say something, Satuski spoke.
"Actually I helped too, you know " said Satuski as she didn't want to left out.
"Thank you! Satuski-Chan... ." said Hitomi as she thanked her too.. for saving his son.
"but she got a hug" muttered Satuski to herself, Hitomi heard It and smiled and walked to her and brought her in a comfortable motherly hug. it's been a while when Satuski got a monthly hug... Her mother used to give her. And she melted in Hitomi hug, like a daughter. Luna just smiled seeing Satuski was getting along too. before anyone could say anything, Kai spoke.
"I must thank both of you for saving my son.. let me know if you both need anything... " said Kin with a smile.
"actually one thing Kin-kun... I promised Naruki-Chan and Satuski- chan... that you and Hitomi-Chan can give them" said Luna, while hoping they'll say yes when she asked them.
"What is it ? mother? Tell us ... " said Hitomi. Kai/Kin nodded.
"Well, both of them are orphans ... one never have parents let alone family another lost everything. that's why I adopt them but I can't give them a patently love.. can I? So i want you both to treat them as your own daughter. " said Luna, shocking Kai and Hitomi.
Kai/Kin and Luna looked at each other and then smiled. And looked at Naruki, who was watching them with a nervous face.
"We'll love to have Naruto and Satuski as our daughter " said Hitomi, looking at Naruki,
Naruki sniffed as she looked up at Hitomi, eyes watery and puffy. "K-Kaa-san…" . While Satuski just stared at them but remember the hug she got from Hitomi and smiled.
"Kaa-san!?" muttered Satuski
Hitomi just smiled even wider when she heard their words . "Yes Naruki-Chan and Satuski- chan! I am your Kaa-san. From now on and forever." She said, Kin smiled and spoke.
"Your name will be Naruki Hyoudou from now ... Okay? Naruki-Chan? And Satuski you Satuski Hyoudou from now as well" asked Kai in fatherly tone. Naruki just cried even harder. Satuski just nodded.
"Haii, otou-san" said Naruki.
"Now!now ! Don't get carried away.. we must talk about Issei's punishment" said Kai. Hitomi just nodded. While Luna and Max just sweat-dropped. Issei paled. While Tiamat giggled. Vali, Naruki and Satuski have confused faces. But Kurumi looked towards Issei. As she saw his face she lowered her head in shame.
"Issei, simply to say you are grounded for a week" said Kai with a serious face. Hitomi nodded.
"... And no tv.. no internet... no games.. " added Hitomi. Issei just stared at her with looked of disbelief but seeing how serious she was... he nodded reluctantly. This is the first time Issei was punished for anything but ironically he did nothing.
"And you aren't going any summer camp either." said Kai, he don't want to do this but after hearing issei almost risking his life wasn't pleased him. He was totally forgetting that he adopted Issei, he was totally his son by all but bloods. And the thought of losing him ... well that was enough reason to he can't let just slide the matter.
Max looked at his wife how childish her idea was and caused cancelling the SC (summer camp) for their grandson .. And he have a thought now if Issei isn't going then NO ONE. It doesn't matter how much to they much want to go there. since Ophis isn't going leave Issei, Ophis prefer spending more time with Issei above all. Tiamat same reason as Ophis. Vali won't going to leave them and as for Kurumi she'll do anything for Issei .. going on SC will be the last thing she'll do.
"Lets not do this ... they are quiet excited about it " said Max. Luna nodded.
"They!? It's only for Issei actually... rest can go " said Kai, even he isn't like the idea. But wondering why his father said 'they' he knew that all children are pretty close to each other but they aren't going to cancel the whole? Can they? Only if he knows.
Luna cursed herself knowing how much deeply Hitomi and Kai care and love Issei and they won't let it slide without punishing him so he won't do something like that again but more importantly Issei couldn't go summer camp this year, the very same thing That made Issei excited when she told him about summer camp and because of her 'ridiculous idea' of getting Naruki and Satuski get along with Hitomi and Kai easily caused a family issue and if doesn't solve easily, it is going to make big situation. Even she knew if Issei isn't going then just forget about rest will go... She did know well that Hitomi will shout at Issei but never thought of punishment, let alone prohibited him to go summer camp. She decided to interfere.
"I agree with all punishment but stopping him to go SC" inside she doesn't like what was she just said about 'agreeing about punishment' and if only she knew this idea will backfire she just find another way but now everything ruined.
"We know Kaa-san but what Issei did, was completely reckless ... And we aren't going to change our decisions. " said Hitomi
That was the final hit Kurumi just couldn't take it and suddenly stand up and spoke
"It's my fault so punish me instead of him... he did nothing... it was all my fault and stupidity " stated Kurumi still lowering her head. Kai and Hitomi just looked at her and saw how much her face full of sadness, regrets and shame. Vali has no clue what was going on so she decided that she'll asked them later.
Hitomi and Kai just looked towards her and Hitomi decided to asked she meant. "What do you mean ? Rumi-Chan? "
"I was responsible for that incident (which didn't happened at all) " stated Kurumi. Issei didn't like what was she saying. Yes it was her 'fireball' but that didn't mean he will let her going to face the punishment alone and spoke.
" she is just saying so I can go SC.. kaa-chan... she has nothing to do with this" Issei said immediately, much to everyone shock except Kai and Hitomi.
That statement made proud Max that his grandson willingly to protect what is precious to him without giving a single thought but frowned at Luna' s 'idea'.
Tiamat and Vali giggled mentally at overprotective nature of Issei about them. They knew Issei doesn't show favoritism to them and if he stands for Kurumi, he'll stand for them too.
Naruki and Satuski now have some idea that what incident they are talking about and how they make it to appeared like. But both of them have shocked face when they heard Issei standing for Karumi.
'Now I can understand why you fall for him Kunou-sama' thought both Naruki and Satuski.
Ophis just looking at him with a smile on her face, se knew her mate was caring.
Luna is now at the point, didn't know what'll she do next so things go how it supposed to be.
KURUMI just stared at him and then smiled when she understand, he was just protecting her from same punishment , that's how her precious 'ise-kun' is. But she isn't going to let him take all punishment and spoke . "No! Oba-San it's all my fault!"
"Fine you both share same punishment for a weeks along with the prohibition of going SC ... rest can go SC next week and you both can do whatever but we aren't taking you anywhere." said Hitomi while looking towards both of them, her heart inside just broke seeing her son and her niece face. She didn't want to separate children but what she could do so Issei don't do something stupid next time. Better be safe than sorry. She didn't want to do prohibit them to go to SC, after all she was the one who suggested it in first place but she can't let them slide it without punishment.
Issei just left the dining room without finishing his plate. Max and Luna didn't like the 'things' just happened. This is the first time Issei left the dining table but when they except Kai , Hitomi, Naruki, and Satuski, noticed the plate they found he didn't eat a single thing. Their mood suddenly become regretful after all today's food was all Issei's favorite. And he left without eating.
'I should stop luna when she suggested that idea' thought Max with a sad face.
'I just ruined everything... he did nothing and got punished.. " Luna cursed herself and looked where he was sit before then his plate and frowned ' and my poor baby didn't eat anything and it was all his favorite '
'We aren't liking the idea but... ' thought Hitomi and Kai.
'My Issei isn't going SC or some type of restrictions on him? Who cares ? He will do whatever he want and I'll make sure of it... No one ... I mean No one will stop him doing anything he want even the entire world against him ... I'll stand by his side no matter what the condition is.' thought Ophis while Tiamat having the same thought. Too much thinking similarity about their 'mate', between a dragon king and a dragon god.
'What the hell just happened and if my 'ise-koi' isn't going then I'm not going too... .' thought Vali
'No! NO! This isn't going to this way! My 'ise-kun' just punished for my stupidity and he tried to save me punishment even when I interfered... I'll make it up for him but how? ' thought Kurumi and then looked at Luna with most hateful looked 'How dare she ... I didn't mind if she blame me for everything but she have to include mý 'ise-kun' and then looked at his plate and curesed herself more 'he didn't eat anything? ' then she looked at her plate and noticed she didn't too , her plate was untouched and she didn't try to touch it and simply left the room too, following Ise.
Unknown to Kurumi; Luna and Max both cought how Kurumi was looking towards Luna. Max didn't like it a single bit whatever happening at the table. He can see the hateful glare of Kurumi and knows how much Issei mean to her (kurumi) and that look will completely break Luna' s heart if it didn't yet. Luna is at her worst now. Her stupid idea completely backfired, not just Issei and Kurumi punished but when she noticed Kurumi hateful glare she completely froze, like yelling at her 'you could blame me for it but how dare you to include Ise-kun... he has nothing to do with this.' But when she saw her leaving without even touching her food, she just lose her appetite. She can't even think that Issei and Kurumi went to bed without eating , Issei and Kurumi went to bed without eating and now this is happening.
Breaking the Awkward silent, Hitomi asked "it's only 8 so How about going out for shopping tommorow? Naruki-Chan and Satuski-chan? "
"Ano, it's my first time going shopping with anyone" said Naruki.
"It's fine Naruki - chan ! How about you Satuski-Chan!?"
"I'd like to if it isn't any problem for you " said Satuski
"Of course! It isn't any problem... I think Ophis-Chan, Tia-Chan and Val-Chan tag along too" said Hitomi... Kai didn't like the idea of leaving Issei and Kurumi but what he could say?
Issei just entered his room. He switched off all the lights in his room and go to bed.
'What i did to deserve this?' Mentally cursed Issei.
{Nothing. You did nothing. It's your 'baa-chan' way to make the matter worse}
'Ddraig?'
{Of course! I'm... and I'm not alone... }
'not alone and where were you that time?'
{Contacting your 'father' you know! }
'you told 'tou-chan' about it ? '
[YES ! HE DID... and you know you have nothing to worry about... You inherit 'Primordial Power Of Creation and Destruction' so you can do anything by just thinking.]
''Tou-chan' is that you? And I know 'tou-chan' but isn't it cheating?'
[YES! Your 'tou-chan' , and let me tell you one thing son listen carefully]
'what is it 'tou-chan'!?'
[You can do whatever you want. Consequences be damned]
'really!?'
{Aren't you spoiling him?]
[Spoiling? He is MY SON. And let me tell you one thing he can do whatever you want. Anyway My little DragonGod, you know how to make blood clones? ]
Ddraig just shrugged. Issei chuckle at his 'father' behavior.
'What is a blood clone 'tou-chan'?'
[As stated by the name, the user makes a blood clone of themselves. these clones have a fraction of the user's overall power, but are useful for attacks and other diversions. As expected, they are capable of bleeding and are quite durable. Do you understand? ]
'So I can go anywhere while leaving a clone?'
[YES, you can ]
'that'll be awesome'
{Now take a nap so we could drag you in your mindscape so we can train you}
'Hai'
Kurumi was standing outside the Issei's room in front of door. She didn't know how Issei will react. She opened his door and found there is only darkness. All lights were switched off. She used her little 'flame' to see around. She found Issei on bed lying asleep. She soon joined him, laying close to him, before covering them with the warm blanket. While gently breathing, Kurumi's arms wrapped around Issei's shoulders, effectively bringing his face into her *censored*, squashing his face. Smiling dumbly, Issei just went with the soft heart-beat of Kurumi gently lulling him to sleep.
Soon Ophis, Tiamat and Vali joined them. It became daily routine for them. It wasn't like they didn't have there own but still they loved to sleep at 'his' room.
In DreamWorld
'Finally did it '
{Yes, you master the technic, Issei}
[Ne, Ise do you want to accelerate your training!?]
'accelerate you say? But how? I just can't train 24/7... I have other things to do.'
[i know but what will happen when someone do it for you?]
'Someone do it for me? Why would someone do that for me and if someone else do training it will help him/her Not me' said a very Confused Issei.
[it's called Multiple Shadow Clone. Shadow Clone require less chakra then a blood clone... ]
{That's forbidden, you know}
'forbidden? Is it dangerous or something? Why it is forbidden anyway?'
[Not for those who have high Chakra reverse and Magic...]
'so low chakra reverse person can't do it? Huh! ... But aren't I a Dragon God? '
[Hai, my cute little DragonGod]
'Dad!? I'm not a child '
[Yes you are, My little DragonGod]
Ddraig chuckled at the scene of how Issei and Great Red interacting, it's truly amusing for them seeing dragon gods acting like this . But he decided to interfere, knowing if he won't, they will continue for the day.
{How could I forget, he is your SON}
[Well Issei, it's called Multiple Shadow Clone, this technique creates copies of the user, however, these clones are corporeal instead of illusions. The user's chakra is evenly distributed among every clone, giving each clone an equal fraction of the user's overall power. The clones are capable of performing techniques, including the Shadow Clone Technique itself, on their own and can even bleed, but will usually disperse after hit by a strong enough force. The clones can also disperse on their own or be dispelled by the user of the technique. But when disperse, it transferred 'it's ' memorry as well as experience to original... so if you...]
'if I creat more... the more they will learn and when it dispersed.. It automatically transformed all things they will learn to me'
[ INDEED... so ready to boost your training? ]
'Hai'
(Morning; At breakfast table)
All are having breakfast together as their morning routine but today's everyone mood is little bit tensed. Because the breakfast table clearly missing Issei, Kurumi, Ophis, Tiamat and Vali. Their thoughts were different at the moment.
'they all missed ? not a coincident! now thing will get worst.. ' thought Max with a sad face.
'they didn't have dinner yesterday... And now breakfast... ' thought Luna with a face of full regret.
'where are they? they didn't missed breakfast.' thought Kai and Hitomi.
"Looks like Issei overslept " said Max with a signed breaking the tensing moment. Luna couldn't take it and spoke while looking towards a household servent. "James, go check on Issei and rest. If they already awake then bring them here " . James nodded and left.
"But they missed breakfast and they didn't eat dinner yesterday " stated Luna.
Kai and Hitomi eyes blinked before widened when they heard last comment.
"What do you mean by not having dinner ?" asked Hitomi, silently praying that she misheard. There will be no way Ise missed his dinner when it was his favorite, how wrong she was. Kai nodded to. he also wanted to know.
"You didn't noticed! did you? None of them had dinner yesterday including Issei of course! ... their plates were untouched. " explained Max.
Hitomi and Kai were thought first that they misheard but when Max confirmed it at what they heard It, is indeed true. Their face became ghostly pale.
"Were we little hard on him?" asked Hitomi, hoping that wasn't the only reason .
"To put it simply... there was NO ONE fault there. I was there and I said No one." Max replied in stern face.
Hitomi and Kai blinked before looking at each other. Kai spoke. "So we punished him for the first time in his life and he has nothing to do with this!?"
Hitomi recalled the sad face of Issei yesterday. she understood the impact she had on him. Before she could say anything James entered the room.
"James, Where are they?" asked Kai immediately as he saw James entering the room.
"Kin-sama, they are still asleep. " said James.
Kai /Kin nodded while Max just signed. Hitomi still can't believe that she punished her little baby boy without any reason and frowned. Her frowned deeper when she recalled the yesterday event.
"So we have to talk to him and tell him he is un-grounded as well as can go SC" stated Kin/Kai with a happy face.
"How about you take all of them for shopping!?" suggested Max.
"I'm going too then" said Luna immediately, not wasting any chance to make up to her little grandson.
A pair of golden eyes opened in response to the sunlight filtering into the large room. Said boy groaned as he slowly returned to the waking world. He felt two warm breaths tickle his chest and smiled at the now common sight of the mop of blond hair and black hair that belonged to Kurumi and Ophis. He looked at the clock and find its already half past eight. He oversleep whenever something annoyed him.
'breakfast at 8... looks like I missed my breakfast too! ' thought Issei when his stomach growled and it didn't help as he didn't eat anything last night.
He stroked their hair gently as he recalled what had happened yesterday and frowned.
He checked his surrounding and found Tiamat and Vali were gone. Vali liked to do morning training. As for Tiamat, he heard his bathroom shower is on and he has plenty of idea where she is and he confirmed it by his dragonic sense.
Issei was cut off from his thoughts when he heard Kurumi and Ophis mutter, indicating that they were finally starting to wake up. He couldn't help but chuckle as it was widely known at household that the Kurumi wasn't much of a morning person and as for Ophis, she didn't care about morning.
Kurumi opened her eyes to the morning, looking around the room sleepily before giving a warm smile to him. Ophis give a warm smile to her husband / mate, snuggling deeper into his chest.
"How are you feeling Ise-kun?" Kurumi asked.
"Tired! And kind of hungry " Issei stated.
"We missed breakfast too... not to mention we didn't have dinner yesterday! " Ophis said calmly who still snuggling in his chest.
"We!? I think only I missed " said Issei , not liking the idea of they didn't eat too.
"It's my fau..." before Kurumi complete her sentence, Issei brought her in a tight embrace and spoke. "It has nothing to do with you, My queen... don't forget it .. given we are grounded and restricted to go SC but when can fun at home and right Ophis-hime? "
"My husband speaks truth Rumi-Chan .. I was there too ... And didn't find you guilty anyhow.. so just forget it and how about bath together... then breakfast? " replied Ophis.
Suddenly the bathroom door opened and revealed Tiamat, who wore nothing but just towel. Issei blushed deeply seeing that. While Ophis and Kurumi narrow their eyes. Seeing Issei face, Tiamat smirked.
"Like what you see~? Ise-kun~!... " said Tiamat in very seductive tone, making a seductive pose too.
Issei blushed heavily but before Tiamat tease him more Kurumi spoke. "Cut it Tia-Chan, this isn't the time!"
"Yes, Rumi-Chan, is right. " Ophis stated who now sitting in Ise's lap.
"I already have a plan. But first go take a bath you all. " said Tiamat.
Suddenly someone open the door and enter the room. Issei looked at the person who enter his room and spoke with a smile. "Good morning Val-chan" .
Vali smiled and leaned towards him and a give a pick on his cheek and said "Morning Ise-kun, Rumi-Chan,phis-chan... you guys finally awake huh... "
"Yeah .. We're going to take a bath together.. Wanna join?" asked Kurumi.
"Of course! I'll join... And Ophis-Chan did you cancel the registration of SC?" said/asked Vali.
"Cancel the registration? Yes! I already cancelled it last night" simply Ophis stated. Issei looked at her with a look of disbelieve and spoke "Why did you do that!? Don't you want to go there?" . In response Ophis just looked at him and said "I only want to go there because you were going! "
"She is telling the truth Ise... we all were agree to go there because you were going. " said Tiamat.
"You mean... you all are..." Issei stared.
"Not going..." finished Vali. "And that's right ! We already cancelled our registration..."
Issei is about to suggest them to go there if Kurumi didn't speak. Kurumi already knew what's going on her 'Ise-koi' mind . She simple cup both Ise'cheeks with her hands and said "We were going just you wanted to go there, Ise-kun" . Before they will continue Tiamat cut them in middle. "Anyway I have talked to Kunou and she is coming here within a hour. Then we can discuss about it" said Tiamat.
"Ahh! Kunou-Chan, it's good to see you again" said Hitomi, when she saw Kunou at the door.
"Good morning, Hitomi-sama, it's good to see you too" replied Kunou politely.
"Kunou-Chan.. you at early morning? " asked Luna suspiciously. Kunou may sleep over there many times but she never visited Ise at early morning.
"Tia-Chan informed me about changing some plan ... And asked to come early so we could have breakfast together as well as discuss." said Kunou.
"Changing plans? What about it!?" asked Max. He didn't like the way when he heard the 'changing plans' and if his guess was right then it will be about SC.
"Oh! We cancelled our registration of SC... And Tia-Chan asked me come early, so we could discuss more" Kunou stated simply, much to Hitomi and Luna's horror. After all entire SC idea suggested by Hitomi and Luna is the one who told the children.
"You didn't cancel the registration? Did you Kunou Chan? After all, everyone is going " asked Kai. He was hoping he misheard of something that 'going to cancel' . He didn't think that they already did that.
"I already did. So Tia-Chan,Ophis-Chan, Vali-Chan did. Last night Tia-Chan called me and said Ise-kun and Rumi-Chan cancelled their registration, she didn't tell me the details why they did so but if they aren't going then I'm too. " said Kunou while rubbing her head. She has no idea what her statement will do to them. As she said she head towards Ise's room, leaving Ise's parents and grandparents with regretful faces.
"What we have done!? They already cancelled the registration. " said Hitomi while looking at Kin. [A.N- KIN=KAI; HITOMI GAVE KIN A NICKNAME THAT IS 'KAI' ... SO DON'T CONFUSED BETWEEN THEM BOTH ARE SAME PERSON THAT IS ISSEI'S FATHER].
"we punished him for no reason and ended up cancelling entire SC" replied Kin.
"This is all My fault if only I " said Luna who lower her head in shame.
Max just left the hall, he didn't like the way things are going. When he and Luna make Kin and Hitomi understand that there isn't any Issei's fault there... they were too late.
"I think you should take Naruki and Satuski for shopping as you promised them yesterday... I don't think anyone from rest will join you as they making plans " said Kin to Hitomi who just lowered her head and spoke. "Yes, you are right... we made a worst decision yesterday resulting cancelling SC ... But if they are going to make plans for summer we must support them... somehow make it up for Issei... this is first timetime We grounded him and where he wasn't guilty... if only we think with cool mind and at least give him a chance to explain... . "
As Kunou joined Issei and rest of girls. Vali told her everything what happend yesterday. No surprising, Kunou face become red of anger. "You mean to tell me Ise-kun grounded and forced to cancel his SC because of things he even didn't do it"
"To put it simply, Yes" replied Tiamat.
"I'm Sorry! I'm the main reaso... " Kurumi started to apologized but stop when Kunou stop her and spoke. "You have nothing to do with this... its all 'road crossing ' incident they mention which didn't happened at all" .
Kurumi get the inner meaning of her word that simply stated 'it's because of someone used Ise Use as scapegoat'.
"So what plan did you make Tia-Chan? " asked Issei.
"Oh Ise- kun! Always eager huh!? "teased Tiamat, making Issei blushed a little then glare at her and rest of girls glaring as well. "Okay! Okay! Let's finish the breakfast first then we can talk about it... And Ise-koi, only you are allowed to look me like that" added Tiamat, causing Issei's face go redder than Great Red. While all the girls glaring dagger at her. So decided to drop it before it'll go out of control.
"Isn't dining room inside? Why we are going towards garden? " asked a confused Kunou.
"Because we are going to have breakfast in open garden " stated Issei. Soon they entered garden a table which surrounded by six chair. The table was full of food. And two servents standing near the table, mainly waiting for them to arrive.
"Here you breakfast... Issei-sama, as you request " said One of them.
"Thank you, Sai-San.. you too Bani-san" Issei simply stated. Both of them give a half polite now and left, leaving six of them.
(After breakfast)
"So what now?" asked Vali this time... Issei decided to remain shit... not wanting to get teased more by Tiamat.
"Aww... I was hoping 'Ise-kun' going to ask me.. I'm wounded. Ise-kun, don't you care about your litt... " before Tiamat could finished she hit by everyone Killer intent towards her even Ophis except Issei.. Ophis's killer intent is enough for make her shut up.
"Now you things get serious... you would like to tell us about your plan!?" asked Issei.
"Fine... did you guys hear about Okinawa? And Issei if I'm correct your family own a resort there? " asked Tiamat
"Yes! We are... " Issei paused and his eyes widened in realization of her idea.
"Great idea Tia-Chan... you're the best " exclaimed Issei. Tiamat just giggled.
"Okinawa! Huh ... I have to tell 'Kaa-sama'.. also have to take her permission" stated Kunou..
"Don't worry Kunou-Chan... Yasaka- sama will let you go" cheered Kurumi happily .
"Yes! We got almost a week for prepare! Next week we'll be at Okinawa" said Vali. Which everyone nodded.
Currently Max is at his study room.. thinking about the last night event and Kunou' s words. He could help but thinking the possibility of Issei, requesting going back to Kuoh.. he shivered just thinking the possibility. He cut from his thoughts when there is a knock at door
*KNOCK KNOCK*
"Come in"
Issei entered his grandfather study room. And simply looked at him. Max smiled when He saw Issei was the one who came.
"Sit Issei- Chan... do you want to talk about something? " asked Max
"Yes... Grandpa... We're decided.. can we go to Okinawa next week?" asked Issei
" Okinawa? Quite a lovely place for summer... ! We already have resort there.. And next week you say ... okay fine..! Have fun there " max immediately agreed and given permission, not wanting to cause any more disturbance inside the family. "I'll inform Luna, Kin and Hitomi.. don't worry about that" added Max
"Thanks Grandpa" Issei thanked him and left.
'Okinawa! Huh!? Let's go there then... I already know Luna and Hitomi will immediately agree to go there with them and as for Kin , Hitomi alone enough to make him come' thought Max
(1 hour later)
Max was seated on couch at hall. While drinking tea. When he heard Luna, Hitomi, Naruki, and Satuski sounds of chatting. he looked at door and find four figure, entering the room
"How was your shopping Naruki-Chan... Satuski- Chan?" asked Max.
"It was great ... we had ice-cream there" said a very excited Naruki.
"We bought stuff for SC too" said Satuski. Hearing her mentioning SC, Max frowned while Luna and Hitomi just lowered their head. Naruki noticed the reaction and asked "What happened!?" .
Luna decided to answer her question "Well you see Naruki, Issei isn't going there." hearing it Naruki and Satuski face lose happiness too. "Yeah, I know... Onii-same isn't going.. you punished him and prohibited him to go there " .
"That's not all.. when we comes to know the truth behind the incident and finding Issei was innocent.. we about to tell him that he can go like rest but it was too late... you see . Vali, Tiamat, Ophis, even Kunou all cancelled their registration yesterday as Issei did. " stated Hitomi with low voice, she wasn't happy when she prohibited him to go SC, and finding him innocent completely break her... She she even started to doubt is she a good mother?
"Well.. I have a good .. there is development there." Stated Max with a smile.
"Development? What is it?" asked Luna curiously.
"One hour ago, Issei came to my study room an..." before he could finished he was bombarded by Luna and Hitomi questions.
"What is it? He wants to go somewhere!? He wants to SC ? Or do something? He is okay nah!? Tell us !" Luna and Hitomi asked in unison much to Max suprised. He never saw Luna, acting this way and who kidding, this matter include her 'grandson'. And a baby son for Hitomi.
"Well, they wants to go Okinawa!" said Max
"Okinawa!? Didn't we own a high class resort there? We are going too then" said Hitomi, without thinking twice.
"Okinawa! A fitting place to spend summer, as expected from my grandson" said Luna before giggling.
"Well, he is still thinking he is grounded. And I didn't clear misunderstanding because I wanted you, Hitomi-chan to clear it tonight at dinner table. It started on dinner table... And will end on it." declared Max.
(At the dinner table)
Max, Luna, Hitomi and Kin/Kai already present at the dinner table along with Naruki and Satuski.
Naruki and Satuski both agreed on going to Okinawa instead of SC if rest are going.
Flashback Begin
Naruki seating in her bed thinking about whether she'll go SC or Okinawa as Issei suggested/wanted to go. if she continue and go to SC next week, then Satuski is the only person she knows, will tag along even Kunou-sama isn't going. She was cut from her thought when someone knock at her door.
"Come in ... it's open" said Naruki.
"Ahh! Satuski-Chan! " said Naruki when saw Satuski coming.
"Naruki We need to talk " stated Satuski with a serious face. Which Naruki understood.
"is it about SC? And changing plan, wanted to going Okinawa!?" asked Naruki with a smile... She is thinking the same from past hour.
"How did yo... So you are thinking the same !? " asked Satuski
"to tell you honestly... I like the way Onii-sama stand for kurumi-Chan. don't you agree?" asked Naruki.
"Well, you are right and seeing the look on rest of them I can easily say he'll stand for them too" stated Satuski.
"Isn't he the King"
"Yeah and Kurumi is his queen"
"he even took her blame on himself without thinking twice"
"he is different king... instead of building an peerage, he is building a family "
"I guess you are right... this is one of the reason I agree to join his peerage"
"you already want to join!?"
"yeah I want to join Onii-sama's peerage. don't tell me you don't want to...! he treated us like his family.. He gave me the family I ever wanted I felt it when we went to shopping today "
"I guess... you're right let's talk to him after dinner"
Flashback Ends
Issei and rest of girls entered the dining room and find everyone staring at them.
"Ise-chan come here! Come to 'Kaa-chan'" said/ordered Hitomi. Which Issei follow , As Issei went near her. She pulled him to her and force him to sit on her lap, much to Issei's embracement.
"Kaa-Chan!? " shouted Issei in embracement, his face became little red.
"What Ise-Chan? Do you want something!?"
"What are you doing by suddenly pull me on your lap!?
"Oh, it's simple ... I'm going to feed you Ise-Chan! And ..." she looked at Kin/Kai who nodded "We are sorry for yesterday Ise- chan" Hitomi and Kin said in unison..
"Sorry!? For?" asked a very confused Issei.
"We punished you for no reason even we prohibited you to go SC" as Hitomi said and lowered her head and said "We wanted to say sorry"
"It's okay Kaa-Chan!" replied Issei with a smile.
"No, it's not okay! Kaa-Chan is going to make it up for you now... So Kaa-Chan decided to take you Okinawa! Not only you but everyone going ... " declared Hitomi, much to Issei's shock .. since he thought only he girls are going.
"Really!?"
"yeah... and you and Kurumi, both are ungrounded... " said Hitomi while patting Ise's head.
"thank you oba-san" replied Kurumi as she heard Hitomi.
"oh Rumi-chan ... oba-san is sorry okay? sweetie!" apologized Hitomi.
"it's okay.. oba-san"
"Now… Now… Issei open your mouth .. let kaa-chan feed you... say 'ahhh'" said/demanded Hitomi , much to Issei embracement.
in the end of the day everyone have the happy faces. Issei felt someone pull edge of his shirt, he turned around and saw Satuski and Naruki were standing there.
"Ruki-chan , Satu-chan... may I help you with something!? " asked Issei. Naruki and Satuski both have slightly blushed at the nickname Issei gave them.
"yes, Onii-sama .. can we talk to you ALONE" asked Naruki. Satuski nodded in agreement.
"Fine, follow me" said Issei and indicate them to follow him. He lead them to garden where no one present there.
"now Ruki-chan , Satu-chan .. anything wrong!? you both can tell me anything you know. " asked Issei in very concern tone. Naruki and Satuski both blushed at the nickname not to mention his concern voice melted them... not to mention his draconic presence.
"Actually we want to join your peerage." Naruki spoke, looking in his eyes. Satuski nodded
"huh!? Are you sure!?" asked Issei, not wanting to force them into something which they don't want to.
"yes.. Issei-kun... we both talk about it and decided to join if only you let us... " said Satuski and smirked. she knew now Issei won't turn her down .
"of course! you both are welcome anytime but before we proceed further I would like to reveal a secret and I want complete secrecy on this topic. " asked/ warned Issei . Seeing his Serious face Naruki decided to ask "What is it Onii-sama?"
"you both know that I'm not a human right?" asked Issei.
"yeah, you are a dragon ... " said Satuski, then she looked at his face which clearly showing there is something else too... "right Issei-kun!?"
"there is something more Satu- chan which you both didn't know."
"what is it !? Onii-sama? " Naruki decided to interfere.
"I'm not just a simple dragon ... I'm far more than that" said Issei, who now going to reveal his one of the most secret thing about him "I'm a Dragon God" stated Issei. Naruki and Satuski both froze for a minute.
"W-W-What!? b-but how ?" asked Naruki and Satuski.
"Well I'll tell in future if..." Issei started to explain he isn't ready for revealed everything but Satuski stopped him and spoke. "We understand you aren't ready for this and we completely respect your decision but if you want to tell us anytime.. our ears is all yours.. " said Satuski, who soon joined by Naruki.
"Hai, Onii-sama... Satuski-chan is right... and we still want to join your peerage" said Naruki with determined face.
Issei nodded and complete the ritual make them both his pawns.
"So both of them joined your peerage, mate?" asked Ophis seated on grass under a tree at the garden.
"hai, Ophis-hime they both joined and I just told them I'm a dragon God" replied Issei who lying on the grass, putting his head on Ophis lap, who constantly playing with her mate's hair.
"so what you want to do with them? Ise-koi? " asked Ophis, who enjoying, playing with her mate hair.
"I want to help them reach their true potential... also I want you research about their species and proper way to reach their true potential so they will become strong in future and as for now I'll ask Tiamat to give them basic dragon training."
"A wise choice mate... I'll help them in more advanced training when they reach the level of high-class dragon"
"it'll take one or two years... for now dig in their species"
"you don't have to worry about it mate... I've already sent my spies to gather information about their species.. we'll get it in a day... " said Ophis with a smile.
"thanks Ophis-hime... I don't know what I'll do if I don't have you hime " said Issei. Ophis giggle and leaned towards his face and give a pick on his cheek and said "probably messing up the things"
Time skip : 1 week ( Okinawa)
The sun was high as the sounds of crashing waves only added to the serene view that was the beach. The sky was blue with only a few clouds in sight. The sounds of people either talking or enjoying the weather at this moment gave the area of pleasant atmosphere.
Currently, lying underneath a parasol, Amaterasu was lying on a beach chair, enjoying the gentle breeze, who wore a red bikini that reveal her growing body. It gotten the attention of several teenage males that kept getting a glance at her.
When Issei told her he isn't going SC. She asked why? When explained the situation, she was pissed, beyond pissed. Issei swear he never saw something that terrified. He somehow managed to clam her by telling her about 'Okinawa plan' which ended up her joining in.
Lying next to him, underneath the same parasol, was Kuroka who was sleeping chest down on a towel. She wore a black bikini that reveal her growing body while concealing both her ears and tails.
When Kunou asked for permission for Okinawa trip, she immediately agreed and decided to tag along for the trip that made Kunou more than happy.
They were watching children except Issei, making a sandcastle.
"Where is my Otōto!?" asked Amaterasu.
"He forget something in his room.. so he went to grab it" said a feminine voice from behind. Amaterasu and Yasaka turned to see Luna and Hitomi were standing there, both wearing sundress and a strawhat.
"Oh Luna-sama and Hitomi- San " greeted Yasaka
(Meanwhile with Issei)
"I can't believe, I forgot my goggles at my room... now finally I get it... i should go back to beach" with that Issei closed the door of his room and walked to the beach.
He didn't pay attention to his surrounding just walking towards where he left his 'girls' making the sandcastle. He accidentally bump into someone, resulting both of them fell in the ground (more like beach).
Issei looked at the person he bump into. The said person was a girl with black hair styled in a short bob cut and violet eyes. He stared at for full five minutes the girl doing the same when they realised what they were doing they both blushed and without thinking twice Issei spoke. "I'm Sorry... I wasn't paying attention to my surrounding "
"I-I-It's okay... I was doing the same..." said the black hair girl.
"Issei.. Name's Issei Hyoudou ... " introduced Issei.
"Sona... My name is Sona Sitri" introduced the girl.
To be continue...
