Hey guys and gals, welcome back to Kaigan! Devils! DxD! And this time around we'll be introducing another Eyecon.
We will also be showing what the new dynamic between Akira and Mairi will be for the story, and hopefully get ready for the story of the anime.
I'm still not sure whether or not I want to have Issei be a part of the story, mostly because I already have a story with Issei as a major part, and Akira is already playing the same part Issei would have played in the story and having him would just distract from the main points I want to use.
Let me get your thoughts in the review for this chapter, but for now let's get this chapter started.
Op: Hey kids from Noragami
Disclaimer: I don't own anything except my Oc's
Occult Research Club
Third person P.O.V.
"Ah, it seems like you're already acquainted, that's good." Rias said, sitting down in the occult research club as the others came back after the fight with the Ganma.
"Uh yeah, kind of a lucky coincidence, huh." Akira said, rubbing his head.
"Well actually it's not really a coincidence." Yuuto said, making Akira blink as he looked at him. "What do you mean?"
"Well we're a bit confused about why the President was so interested in you, so we may have followed you around a bit." Akeno explained, making Akira nod. "Ah yeah that makes sense."
"What are you anyway?" Koneko said, while taking out some snacks.
"Koneko's got a point, we've never seen anyone with your abilities before, what exactly are you." Yuuto asked, as Akira looked over at Rias.
"Should you tell them, or should I?" Akira asked, making Rias smirk. "Please be my guest."
"Alright, well I guess I'm kind of a Ghost." Akira said, making the three stare blankly.
"What?"
"Hahahaha! Look at their faces! Priceless!" Yurusen laughed, making Akira roll his eyes.
"Yeah I kinda died by those monsters we fought a few days ago, but I was given the chance to get my life back by collecting these eyecons that hold the spirits of heroic spirits." Akira explained.
"AH! So that's why you could use Miyamoto Musashi's sacred gear." Yuuto said, making Akira turn his head. "What's a sacred gear?"
"That actually lets me get into what I wanted to talk to you about… about what we are." Rias said, making Akira blink.
A few minutes later we see Akira sitting on the couch as Rias sat on her desk with her servants behind her.
"So as you may have deduced yourself,everyone in this room right now except you is a devil." Rias explained, as Akira nodded. "Yeah I kinda figured it out but what are you all doing here in this school?"
"Well besides the fact I wanted to experience what Japanese culture was like, this town along with my best friend is our territory and here we make contracts with humans in order to increase our power and standing in the devil world, as well as letting us find humans with Sacred Gears." Rias explained, making Akira blink. "You mentioned that before, what's a Sacred Gear?"
"Ah well you see my little Kouhai, the Sacred Gears are special powers that certain humans contain, most never even noticing the power. That's how you get certain exceptional people, mostly historical figures." Akeno explained, making Akira look at the Musashi Eyecon.
"So those swords I was using were Musashi's sacred gears? Doesn't that mean if I can get more eyecons I can use their Sacred Gears too!" Akira grinned, excitedly but Yuuto crossed his arms. "That only depends on if they have Sacred Gears, they're pretty rare after all."
"Ah yeah that makes sense." Akira sighed as Yurusen popped up. "Guess you can't be the Op badass like you wanted."
"That might be a good thing, if you could use multiple Sacred Gears like that you may become a target for other devils and the fallen angels." Rias said, making Akira blinked as he looked at her. "Fallen Angels? What are those?"
"Yes, well you see there are three factions in the spirit world all in conflict with each other, there fallen Angels who have fallen from heaven, most people think we're the same which isn't true, they want to serve god but it's too late for them their dark emotions has forced them into the underworld." She explained, before crossing her arms.
. "The confusion is understandable since they too walk the earth misguiding humans but they do it under the word of god, that's how you would get people like terrorist's or murderer's doing their work under the will of god." She explained
"However they wish to please God, so their ultimate goal is to wipe us out and 'purify' the underworld for him…"If they discover someone like you, I being who has not only broken God's system of death and has the power to commune with other legendary human spirits and tap into their Sacred Gears they would most likely want you gone." She said, making Akira gulp in fear.
. "And finally, there's the more recognizable angels who don't agree with the fallen angels' methods, but also want us gone as well, so it's a battle between the three sides for supremacy."
"But wait, then what about those guys we fought before the Ganma?" Akira asked, but Rias shook her head. "Unfortunately, I've never heard of beings like that before… I was hoping you would enlighten me about them."
"Oh um, Yurusen?" Akira asked, as the ghost shrugged. "What do you think I know about them? I was just brought to help you with your Ghost powers."
"Right… hmm… AH!" Akira smiled. "I remember now, when I died I remember meeting this old guy Sennin who gave me my driver, he told me that the Ganma were supernatural beings my father fought who wanted to perform some ritual."
"A ritual?" The devils blinked, as Akira nodded.
"Yeah something about needing to use this Eyecon along with the other 15 eyecons for a wish, but I'm going to get those Eyecons first and use the wish to come back to life." Akira said.
"I see and we are happy to help you with this goal, as long as you help this deal with this new threat and work for me as a temporary servant." Rias said, as Akira rubbed his head.
"Yeah I think I got all that, anything else?" Akira asked, but Rias shook her head. "No, that's all you can go back to if you want, make sure to come over here tomorrow for your first job."
"Right, right, sure thing." Akira said, leaving as Rias turned to her Peerage.
"Well that certainly was interesting, I can see why you're so interested in him." Akeno said, as Rias nodded.
"Yeah and what he mentioned also sparked my curiosity. I'd like you two to take a look into his history. I want to know if you can find anything about his father that could give us a hint on what those Ganma are." She said, looking at Akeno and Yuuto.
"What about me?" Koneko asked, as Rias smiled. "I put you in charge of showing him the ropes, you got that.
"Yes Buchou." Koneko said quietly while Akeno and Yuuto left to find the information about Akira's family.
Dreamscape
Third person P.O.V.
"Mmm, huh?" Akira blinked as he found himself back in the black void from before. "This place again?"
"Greetings, young man." Akira heard, as he looked over to see a person that had a completely black body much like Musashi who was wearing a Silver hood that had yellow lining going up to the hood that looked like lightning, with two shafts poking out of the top of the hood and two half light bulbs on his shoulders, he also had two yellow eyes and a yellow eye symbol on his chest.
"You! Are you-.". "That's right, I am Edison! Thomas Edison!" He declared, making me sweatdrop.
"Huh, didn't expect you to talk to me so soon. Especially since Musashi didn't really talk to me." Akira said, making Edison laugh.
"Yes, well that man can be quite stoic." He said, as Akira crossed his arms. "So why did you want to talk with me so soon? Are you going to let me use your power right away?"
"Not quite yet, I decided I want to test you." He explained, making Akira blink. "A test? Why do you wanna test me."
"Well you see I wanted to see if you really have the drive to complete your mission, by giving you a single question." Edison explained. "What will you do if your failed mission, if getting the Eyecons don't work or you end up wasting the time you have left?"
"Oh I um… …" Akira said, looking down as Edison walked up to him.
"You don't need to answer right away, just make sure you find the right answer." Edison said, before a bright light blinded Akira.
"GAH!" Akira yelled, falling out of his bed before groaning. "Ow…"
"Nyaa~ Man do you gotta be so loud." Yurusen yawned, as Akira moved around.
"Well sorry if I'm still not used to all these weird powers, why didn't you tell me I could talk to Eyecons in my sleep." Akira said, as Yurusen shrugged. "Meh, it just didn't seem important."
"Yeah right, you just wanted to fuck with me." Akira said, getting up to put on his uniform.
"Still tight…" Akira said, pulling his collar as he opened the door of his room.
He was currently staying in a small apartment room Rias had managed to prepare after cashing in a favour she got from one of the contracts she made.
"Crazy, she could even get me this place, guess that's a devil for you." Akira yawned, rubbing his head.
Akira then placed some bread into his toaster as Yurusen looked at him. "Do you even need to eat anymore?"
"Not really, but it helps me cope better." He said, grabbing a plate but suddenly.
DING DONG! DING DONG! DING DONG! DING DONG! DING DONG!
"Huh? Who's that?" Akira mumbled, walking towards the door and opening it up only to be surprised at who he saw.
"MAIRI?!" He blinked, in shock as he saw his childhood friend standing in front of him. "W-What are you doing here?"
"Akira! Good, so this is your house! We need to talk about what happened yesterday!" Mairi said, walking inside as Akira followed her. "H-Hey!"
"Mairi! What are you doing! Don't just walk into someone's house like that!" Akira said, as Mairi turned to him.
"Sorry but we need to talk about that guy from yesterday!" Mairi said, confusing Akira. "Guy? What guy?"
"WHAT GUY?! YOU KNOW THAT ORANGE DUDE THAT SAVED US FROM THAT MONSTER! KAMEN RIDER GHOST!" Mairi yelled, making Akira jump 'Shit! I didn't think she'd still be thinking about him'.
"Oooooohhh~~~ You're in trouble." Yurusen cackled, making Akira gulp.
"O-Oh yeah, I thought he was just a dream or something." Akira said, as Mairi nodded. "Yeah, I don't blame you but ever since he saved me I just can't stop thinking about him and you're the only one I can talk about him with."
"Oh uh thanks, but why do you want to know so much about him?" Akira asked, as Mairi smirked. "Cause I'm going to be writing my paper all about him, and prove the supernatural! Something no one has ever done before."
"EEEEHHHHH?!" Akira gawked in shock, as Mairi opened up her laptop.
"I always heard about reports, rumours and theories about the supernatural here ever since I heard I was moving to this town but I never believed it until that spirit possessed me, this could change the whole field of science if I can prove this!" Mairi said, before sighing. "Unfortunately it's a blur so I don't really recall what happened while I was possessed but I definitely know this Kamen RIder Ghost exists, all I have to do is find him."
"And how do you plan to do that, I don't think you can just call him." Akira said, as Mairi pointed at him. "That's quite simple, all I need to do is get some help from the professionals."
"Professionals?" Akira blinked, as Mairi showed him her laptop screen that showed a scientist, Professor Hiroto Asagi who had curly brown hair and brown eyes under some glasses, he wore a sweater over a white shirt under a long lab coat with blue trousers and black shoes.
"This guy came to Kuoh a few years ago to look into the Supernatural rumours about this town, if anyone is going to be a good lead for me it's him." she said, as Akira gulped.
"Uh Mairi, are you sure this is a good idea? If you look into these guys it would only get you into the same situation as yesterday." Akira asked, as Mairi looked at him.
"Well of course, if I don't then more people can get harmed by those things." Mairi explained, before getting up. "Anyway I wanted to ask for your help with this, I'm heading to the lab after school today."
"Ah! Sorry I can't, I have to help my cousin with her club after school." Akira apologised, as Mairi snapped her fingers.
"Dang, fine I'll just go myself." She said, getting up. "If you wanna help me out with this just give me a call, I could use your help."
Akira watched, as Mairi left before sighing and rubbing his head. "Things just got even more complicated."
City
Third person P.O.V.
"Ooohh, how interesting." We hear as we see Kai reading a book while sitting on a bridge.
"Is everything alright my prince?" He heard, looking over to see Aidon walking towards. "Ah, just reading some of the fiction of this world, not too bad if I do say so myself."
"By the way, did you manage to find a new one?" Kai asked, as Aidon nodded, pulling out a blue and black Eyecon.
"Yes sir, I managed to reactivate the Newton Eyecon using an item of its spirit's past life." He said, making Kai smirked as he spun around.
"That's excellent, now we just need to find a suitable host to test our new friend." Kai said, as Aidon looked at him.
"Sir why do you care so much about this person, we could easily just defeat him and take his Eyecon, why let him be the one to purify the eyecons?" Aidon asked, as Kai smirked.
"It felt like the easiest option, besides I still need to find my own Luminary Eyecon especially since Specter is also looking for the Heroic eyecons." Kai said, with a frown.
"Ah yes Specter, I'm surprised you two didn't decide to work together to gather the Eyecons." Aidon said, as Kai looked at him.
"Don't be ridiculous, Specter wouldn't take priority with my mission over his own. And I'm not going to be giving up on my own mission." He said, getting up. "The Ganma race will be free, and we will come to take our proper place above all other races."
"Yes… my lord." He said, before they both left to find a new Ganma host.
Kuoh Academy
Third person P.O.V.
In Kuoh Academy we see Akira looking down at the people below him while looking at the Eyecon in his hand.
"So that's where you were." Akira heard, looking back to see Rias walking up to him. "At this rate you're going to be late for the next class."
"Yeah… sorry about that, I'll head back down." He said, getting up and walking towards Rias but he was stopped by the Devil before he could pass her.
"How about you go start acting all moody, you actually tell me what's wrong?" Rias asked, as Akira looked at her. "It's nothing, just forget about it."
"Oh come on now, it's quite obvious something on your mind." Rias said, crossing her arms. "Don't forget you're not alone anymore. l we're technically cousins now."
"Yeah, fake cousins." Akira said, which made Rias smile. "Would you rather I got my father to properly adopt you."
"… … … … Okay fine." Akira sighed, before looking up at her. "I messed up…"
"What do you mean?" Rias asked, crossing her arms as Akira sighed. "I talked with Mairi and she was the one that got possessed by the Gamma… she saw some of the supernatural stuff, including me transformed."
"Well that's not too bad." She said, making Akira blink as he looked up at her. "What do you mean?"
"There's plenty of people who already know about us, that's how we do contracts in exchange for keeping their secrets we do whatever they want as well as getting a bit of their power to increase the peerages power." Rias explained. "It's just a part of the deal."
"Fair enough, the only problem is she's trying to prove my existence… and I'm worried she's going to get herself in trouble." Akira said, while Rias crossed her arms. "I could wipe her memory again if you want."
"N-No, no that's not necessary I'll figure something out." Akira said, making Rias smile 'He wants to continue talking with her, cute."
"Alright fair enough, ah right by the way speaking of the jobs I have one set for you and Koneko who will be showing you the ropes." Rias said, as Akira nodded. "Oh um, yeah sure thing."
"Anyway, I should be heading to class." Akira said, while Rias crossed her arms watching Akira walking back to class before she saw someone else walking towards her.
"So what did you think of him, Sona?" Rias said, as she looked over to see Sona Stiri, Rias's best friend who was a young bespectacled woman with a slime figure, black hair styled in a short bob cut and violet eyes. She was slo wearing the Kuoh academy uniform.
"I still don't see what all your excitement is about, sure he has those strange powers but other than that he's not anything special." She said, as Rias smiled.
"Maybe so… but I do have to admit… it's kind of nice having him with me… feels like I have a little brother." She said, a small smile on her face.
A little bit later in the day
Third person P.O.V.
"So this is the place…" Akira said, driving his bike with Koneko riding on his bike as they drove towards what looked like a lab.
"Wow! Hehehe, this place looks kinda old." Yurusen said, looking up at the dusty and dirty looking lab.
"Do you know what we need to do?" Akira asked, as he stopped the bike and they got off.
"… The owner asked for a request, he wasn't specific on what…" Koneko said, making Akira sweatdrop. "R-Right."
The two of them stepped in front of the lab's door before Akira knocked. "IS someone there?"
"Go away!" A gruff voice said on the other side making Akira blink.
"Yikes! This dudes sounding like a big jerk." Yurusen said, as Akira gulped.
"S-Sir we are the people you contracted." Akira siad, waiting for an answer but instead he heard some footsteps approaching followed by the sound of locks getting unlocked. The door then swung open, making both of them step back as they were greeted by the sight of a scientist in messy clothes who looked as if he hadn't slept or taken a bath in days.
"Fucking finally you're here! Come." He said as he welcomed us into his lab that it was kinda messy to be honest. "At least it wasn't a sham again. You guys are the real deal, right?"
"Yes we- I mean, she is. I'm technically not a demon." Akira said, before taking a second look at the man. "Wait, you are Professor Hiroto Asagi. The one working with the supernatural!"
"Well, at least you know about my work." Professor Asagi said with a small smile before getting grim again. "Not that it matters anyway…"
"Eh?" Akira said, confused by what he said. He was about to retort before Koneko interrupted him. "Let's get back on track. What do you want us to do?"
The scientist rolled his eyes as he lazily tossed them a list which Akira caught before the two of them looked inside.
"You want us to get some groceries, like some instant ramen and energy drinks as well as doing the chores around the place?" Akira questioned, with a raised eyebrow.
"Well yeah, look at this place it's getting disgusting and I'm running low on food." Asagi said, showing them his nearly empty mini-fridge.
"A-Ah right…" He said, looking over at Koneko. "Are these jobs usually like this?"
"More or less." Koneko shrugged, making Akira sweatdrop. "R-Right… was thinking this would be more difficult, like he'd experiment on us or something."
"Heh, like there's any point in doing that." Asagi scoffed, sitting down on the chair and leaning back.
Akira looked at him with a worried expression but Koneko grabbed his arm.
"Let's just go and do the job." She said, pulling him away much to Akira's surprise.
After they left however we see Mairi walking up to the lab with a determined look. "Here we go."
A few minutes later
Akira P.O.V.
"Man, why did the supermarket have to be so far away?" I sweatdropped, as I gathered up the shopping in a cart.
"Wow, that is a whole load of junk food? This dude really must not care for himself?" Yurusen said, looking over at me. "Kinda reminds me of a certain someone."
"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" I said, looking down at the little ghost.
I then blushed as I saw some of the other people looking at me. "Ugh, hey Koneko you ready to go… Koneko?"
I looked over to see Koneko staring at the Taiyaki they had here while drooling a bit.
"You like those Koneko?" I asked, as she nodded still staring at the treats, making me smile. "You want some?"
"Really!" Koneko said, quickly turning to me with sparkling eyes
"Yeah sure I don't mind, I'll get as many as you want." I said, making her smile excitedly as she quickly grabbed a ton of Taiyaki.
'I may have made a mistake… ' I thought, looking at the sheer number of Taiyaki she was grabbing.
A few minutes later the two of us were walking down the street while Koneko happily ate the snacks.
"Wow, you must really like it, don't you?" I asked, as she nodded while still eating the snacks.
"By the way I was just wondering something." I mentioned, rubbing my head as she looked over at me. "How did you end up becoming a devil and working with Rias? I doubt most people would choose to become a Devil."
"… I was in trouble… her brother saved me… and Rias took me in…" She explained, as I looked over at her. "I-Is that it?"
"Mmm." Koneko nodded, as I sweatdropped as we made it to the lab. "Fair enough I guess."
"Oh come on! Tell me!" We heard, as my eyes widened 'That voice!'.
"Wait no!" I quickly stopped Koneko from walking in, making her look back at me confused.
I motioned her to stay quiet as I used my powers to turn the two of us invincible before peering inside to see what was going on.
"I told you before! I'm not giving you my research now fuck off." Asagi yelled, as Mairi groaned,
"Oh come on! The people need to know about the supernatural! Isn't that why you started researching them?" Mairi said, as Asagi turned to her.
"And how do you think people will react, huh? They'd either call you crazy or they'd be terrified of a war, which let me tell you it will not go well!" Asagi stated.
"I can't accept it! I'm sure there has to be some way we can meet as equals." Mairi yelled, making Asagi growl.
"Face it! Humans are nothing in the supernatural worlds! Only tools to make them stronger! And only people born with special traits and powers can even hope to reach the same levels as them!" He yelled. "There's no point in even trying! What's the point when you're nothing but ants to them!"
"I won't… I can't accept that." Mairi said before turning around and walking off past me and Koneko, who were still invisible.
Seeing her face I couldn't help but feel bad, something which Koneko noticed.
"You can go." Koneko said, as I looked down at her. "Eh? Really?"
"She's your friend right? I can do some of the chores while you're gone." Koneko said, looking up at me. "As a thanks for the Taiyaki."
"Koneko… thanks." I smiled, walking outside of the lab as Koneko headed inside.
Walking outside of the lab, I took out my Eyecon before gripping it. "I think it's time."
I then reached for my waist, causing flames to surround it which summoned the Ghost Driver before I took out the Eyecon and pressed the button before putting it in the belt.
Eye~!
From the belt a black and orange hoodie ghost flew out and began spinning around the place as I got ready.
BATCHMIRINA BATCHMIRINA BATCHMIRINA
"Henshin!" I yelled, while pulling the lever before pushing it back causing the body armour to form around me.
KAIGAN! ORE!
The hoodie ghost then spun around before flying towards me as it wrapped itself around my body as a new mask covered my blank helmet,
LET'S GO! KAKUGO! GO! GO! GHOST!
"Here we go…" I said, before running ahead but as I did I thought I saw something moving from the corner of my eye.
"Huh… nah I'm sure it's nothing." I said, before running ahead after Mairi.
Back inside the lab
Third person P.O.V.
"Hah…" Asagi sighed, drinking some beer while Koneko worked on the cleaning.
As he sat around Mairi words crossed his mind. "Oh come on! The people need to know about the supernatural! Isn't that why you started researching them?"
Asagi went quiet for a moment before getting up and walking into another room in the building.
There he saw some kind of machine that looked like it was meant to be for a portal, with graffiti all around the place and the machinery being completely rocked.
He looked around and turned his attention to a piece of graffiti written in red.
Stay where you belong, Human!
Asagi gripped his hand at that before sighing as he turned around.
"Well now, this is an interesting device." Asagi headed, before looking up to see something flying towards him.
"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Hmm?" Koneko said, perking up as she turned her attention to the door Asagi had entered.
"What was that?" She said, slowly making her way towards the door while a pair of cat ears and a cat tail appeared on her. "Something doesn't smell right…"
WAKE UP! NEWTON!
Koneko was caught off guard when a strange force pushed her towards the wall. "Well well, looks like a little Kitty Cat found herself where she shouldn't."
Koneko's eyes widened when she saw a Ganma like the one from before except this one wore a hoodie that was a blue puffy jacket with silver shoulders and blue orbs in the arms which sent gravitational waves that pushed Koneko to the wall.
From behind him Aidon walked up and crossed his arms. "We don't have time for her, finish her off and we'll continue to try and get the portal open… if it works then maybe we could even open the portal to the Ganma Realm."
"Oooh! Wait, maybe she'd work as a little bit of bait." He grinned, making Koneko growl at them
"Hmph, fine I'll leave this to you, make sure to get the Eyecons and don't damage this machine." Aidon said, before disappearing into a portal as the Ganma grinned.
Meanwhile with Akira and Mairi
Third person P.O.V.
"Hey, young lady, wait!" Akira said in a deep voice trying to not sound familiar to her.
"Huh." Mairi said as she turned around and was greeted by the sight of Ghost. "Oh, it's you!"
"Yes, it is. What is your name, young miss?" Akira asked, still trying to maintain the deep voice.
"Is that supposed to be your imitation of a superhero?" An invisible Yurusen asked quietly in a cheeky tone.
"Shut it." Responded Akira in a quiet tone as well before redirecting his attention to Mairi.
"M-Mairi." Mairi asked with a little fear and amazement in her voice. "So you're here."
"Yes, and I came to talk with you." Ghost responded
"About what?" Mairi asked.
"I want you to stop looking into the supernatural." Ghost said leaving Mairi aghast. "Quit it! Why?!"
"It's too dangerous, there are many things out there that your mind can't simply comprehend, monsters that can cause mass mayhem and entities that could destroy the world. It's not worth taking the risk." Ghost said as Mairi looked down. "I won't give up…"
"Wha-". "I WON'T GIVE UP!" Mairi yelled, interrupting Ghost who was surprised at her response. "I won't give up my search, ok?!"
"It's like my hero Edison said! I haven't failed yet! I just found another way that won't work! That doesn't mean I should just go and give up!" Mairi stated.
"He said that…" Ghost said, looking down at the Edison Eyecon 'Was that what he meant… '.
"But why, why do you care so much about this? You know the dangers of this but why are you so determined." Ghost asked, as Mairi looked down.
"I… I don't really know." She said, gripping her left arm tightly. "Ever since I first saw you… I feel like there's been something… pushing me, to prove the existence of the supernatural… or at least learn more from it… ."
"Something… pushing you?" Ghost blinked, as Mairi sighed.
"I know it sounds crazy… but I just feel like I can't stop… not until I get the answers I'm looking for." She said, before looking up at Ghost. "And I don't care who gets in my way."
"Mairi…" Ghost said, honestly surprised as he looked into Mairi's determined eyes.
"Hey if you're looking into each other's eyes there's another Ganma on the loose?" Yurusen said, making Ghost's eyes widen.
"What, a Ganma Where?" Ghost asked, as Yurusen pointed back at the lab. "Looks like the Ganma has taken an interest in the little scientist dude."
"Crap uh, I need you to stay here there's another monster on the loose." Ghost said, turning to the lab.
"What! No way! I'm not sitting here when I can see you in action!" She said, making Ghost sweatdrop. "Still as hot headed as ever."
"What was that?" Mairi asked, as Ghost shook his head. "It's nothing, fine there's some other people in that lab I'll need you to help them out."
"Alright!" Mairi pumped, making Ghost sigh as the two of them headed towards the lab.
A few minutes later, we see both Ghost and Mairi running towards the lab only to see some of the Ganma grunts appearing in front of them.
"T-Those are the monsters." Mairi said, as Ghost moved in front of her.
"Get back! Let me handle this." Ghost said, as Mairi nodded moving back before Ghost ran towards them.
The monster attempted to swing their weapons at Ghost who caught them before manoeuvring out of the way.
Ghost then quickly summoned his weapon before slashing the GanGunSaber at the monsters, sending them flying back.
"Woah!" Another monster tried jumping Ghost but he pushed it out of the way before slashing at it causing it to disperse into a black dust.
He then switched his sword into its gun before firing at the monsters rushing towards him.
"Looks like I'll need to switch it up." Ghost said, as he pulled out the Musashi Eyecon.
Ghost removed his Ore Eyecon making his current Parka disappear before he inserted the Musashi Eyecon and closed the driver causing a new Parka ghost to fly out.
Eye~!
"Woah!… a hoodie?" Mairi blinked, looking up at the flying Parka Ghost.
BATCHMIRINA BATCHMIRINA BATCHMIRINA
"Woah! So cool!" Mairi said, as the Musashi Parka Ghost spun around the rider and slashed down any Ganma that came near him.
"Alright Musashi! Let's go!" Ghost said, as he pulled the lever on his driver before pushing it back in.
KAIGAN! MUSASHI!
The Musashi Parka then settled down over his body and as soon as Ghost was wearing the Parka a new faceplate appeared and covered his face completing the transformation.
KETTOU! ZUBATTOU! CHO KENGOU! AHN~!
"Alright Musashi, lend me some of your strength!" Ghost said, before his arms summoning two swords one red and one blue which looks like they can be combined into one large blade with half eyes on the hilt before rushing towards the grunt Ganma.
Ghost slashed down several of the monsters the incoming Ganma with his two swords.
He then jumped into the air, and performed a spin slash sending an energy wave killing some more of them.
The rider then jumps into the air, and performs a downward slash at the monster knocking them back.
Some of them tried attacking him from behind but the rider used his ghost power to phase through the attacks.
He then spun the sword around before stabbing the swords into the ground, creating an energy wave that knocked the monster into the air.
He then pulled the lever before pushing back into the driver causing the Eyecon to flash.
DAI-KAIGAN! OMEGA DRIVE!
He then lifted the two swords before coming into them together as it grew into a giant energy sword before jumping into the air,
He then performed a spin slash with the giant sword causing the remaining monsters to explode.
Landing down on the ground, Ghost looked over at Mairi running up to him. "Wow! That was awesome, you really are a superhero."
"Uh y-yeah thanks." Ghost said, rubbing his head.
"My my, it seems like you're liking this a lot." Yurusen said, appearing next to the rider.
"N-No." Ghost said, before shaking his head. "A-Anyway, let's go inside."
Mairi nodded as the two of them ran into the lab, so that they could find where the Ganma
However when they ran inside of the lab only to see Koneko tied up with her on her knees.
'That girl… she's wearing the same uniform as…" Mairi thought, as Ghost ran up to her while dropping his sword. "Koneko!"
"Koneko, are you okay?" Ghost asked, as he tried undoing her bindings only for her to look up at him. "Idiot! Get away!"
"Huh? Gah!" Ghost yelled, as a force pushed the two of them down to the ground.
"What the!" Mairi blinked, before looking up to see the Newton Ganma pushing the two of them with some kind of gravitational force.
"Maybe…" She said, slowly sneaking to the higher floor.
"Haahahahahahahaa! I can't believe you actually fell for that!" The Ganma laughed, using his right hand to lift Ghost up into the air.
"Let… me… go!" Ghost said, struggling to move as the Ganma grinned
"Feisty feisty ain't ya? Well then, if you don't want the little kitty cat to make a nice paste you're gonna be giving the Eyecons you have." The monster said, as Ghost growled before noticing Mairi sneaking up behind him while holding Ghosts dropped swords.
"N-No… way… you're… not… getting them!" Ghost yelled, continuing to struggle to move, making the Ganma snicker.
"Meh, not like it matters I'm just gonna take them away myself." He said, reaching for Ghost to take his Eyecons.
"Hah!" Mairi yelled, slashing at the Ganma causing the monster to stumble back freeing Ghost.
"Thanks! Now's my chance!" Ghost then Proceeded to push and pull the lever on his driver 4 times, which caused a giant energy Eyecon to appear in front of him.
DAI KAIGAN! MUSASHI! OMEDAMA!
"Hah!" Ghost said, as he turned around before leaping into the air and kicking the Eyecon at the Ganma which phased through the monster but pulled Asagi out of his body.
"Shit! No!" The Ganma yelled, stepping back before Koneko leapt in front of him.
"You'll pay…" Koneko said, making the monster. "Ah!"
Koneko then chased the monster as Ghost floated towards Mairi and Asagi.
"You two okay?" Ghost asked, as the two of them slowly nodded. "Alright, get out of here and I'll go and take care of the Ganma."
Mairi and Asagi nodded fleeing the area as Ghost turned to the wall and took out his Eyecon. "Here we go."
KAIGAN! ORE! LET'S GO! KAKUGO! GO-GO-GHOST!
Switching to his base form, Ghost phased through the wall and saw Koneko fighting the Ganma, allowing him to get a better look at it.
The Ganma had a completely black body with a navy blue early modern britain jacket on top of it that had the numbers 1, 2 & 3 engraved in gold on the front part of the jacket on each side as well as a pair of glass pyramids on its shoulders, on its left wrist was some kind gold telescope coming out of it while on its left hand was a whip with ball clackers attached to it. Its head was also completely black with blue eyes with a small solar system model attached to the top of its head acting like a hat.
"How do you like this!" Ganma yelled, jumping away from the cat girl's attacks before firing a rainbow coloured beam at Koneko.
Koneko moved out of the way, letting Ghost fly in and slash at the monster who blocked the attack with his gun arm before punching Ghost back.
The Ganma fired several blasts at the two of them forcing them to move out of the way, before Ghost switched his sword to gun mode.
He then fired back at the monster, stunning him for a moment allowing Koneko to rush in towards the monster.
She then threw a powerful punch to the monster, sending it flying back towards the wall.
"Grr! I can't believe this! I'm not going to lose this easily!" The Gamma Said, as he flew back before his body began glowing and mutating.
The ganma transformed into a ginormous caterpillar-like creature whose body was composed of a newton cradle with each of the marbles shaped like each planet in the solar system with the head resembling the sun.
The Ganma monster roared as it rushed towards Kamen Rider Ghost, at speeds similar to a train, something which Koneko noticed.
"Look out!" Koneko yelled, pushing him out of the way before the Ganma grabbed her by its mouth and began moving away.
"Koneko! No!" Ghost yelled, as he raised his hand and created a symbol summoning his bike before jumping on it.
However even when he was on his bike, he still couldn't keep up with the out of control monster.
"Shit! I can't keep up! What am I meant to do!" Ghost said, when Yurusen appeared next to him.
"Oh I might have something that will do the trick… HAH!" Yurusen said, opening an eye symbol which summoned another vehicle that surprised Ghost.
"Woah!" Ghost gawked, as he saw a hybrid between a monster and a haunted pirate ship come flying out of the portal and begin firing at the large monster.
It had a brown coloured body made out of decaying wood as well as two sets of poles with 3 white flags in it that also looked decaying as well. The monster-like parts of the ship were all done in a swamp green, consisting in two limbs going down on each side with another set connecting to the poles, a claw on the back as well as cannon on the front. The ship also had a monster-like face with red eyes located on the front.
"This little guy is what I like to call, Captain Ghost! And it's a little gift sennin prepared for ya." Yurusen said, as the boat flew in front of Ghost.
"Now here's a little trick when you try combining your bike and the ship." Yurusen said, making Ghost sweatdrop.
"I don't really get what you're talking about but alright." Ghost said, revving his bike so that he can jump on the boat,
The boat's parts then shifted around as the bike combined with it, transforming it into an iguana like monster.
"Woah! What the heck?!" Ghost said, as the monster roared before jumping and landing on the monster's back.
Captain Ghost then began biting the monsters towards the monster causing it to screech out in pain, dropping Koneko.
"Koneko!" Ghost said, jumping off Captain Ghost as the large iguana continued fighting the monster.
"You okay? That Ganma didn't do anything to you did he?" Ghost asked, as she shook her head. "I'm fine."
Koneko tried to get back up only to stumble back to the ground. "Ow… ."
"You're clearly not, just take a break and leave the rest to me okay?" Ghost said, as Koneko looked up at him before sighing. "Fine."
Back with the two monsters, we see the two large monsters continuing to battle while moving through the area.
The Ganma fired several rainbow blasts at the Iguana who jumped into the air and onto the wall of the lab.
Captain Ghost then spun its tail around at the monster causing it to get knocked back to the ground.
The monster was then shot by several blasts from Captain Ghost forcing the monster back to its humanoid form.
"Gah, stupid Iguana! I better get out of here." The Ganma said, but Ghost jumped in and slashed at him.
"No! You're not getting away! You're going to pay for using Asagi like a puppet!" Ghost said, as the Ganma smirked.
Mairi and Asagi who had followed the action going on, managed to catch up to Ghost and watched him battling the Ganma.
"What does it matter! Humans are just meant to be tools for stronger races!" The Ganma yelled, firing lasers at Ghost as he moved out of the way.
"Whether it be Devils, Angels, Fallen Angels or Ganma! Humans are just meant to be tools! You should be happy that you've become a Ghost now you're finally respected in this world." The Ganma said, as Ghost growled.
"You're wrong! Even if Humans don't have the power or the magic of the other races… Humans have still grown to amazing heights without any of that!" Ghost said, moving back. "Art! History! Technology! Science! All of these achievements make us Humans different from the other races! Our Infinite Potential!"
"Infinite… potential?" Asagi said, looking down as he took Ghost's words to heart.
"That's why I won't give up till I've achieved my goals! Even if I fail I'll just find a new way until I'm able to follow my potential!" Ghost yelled, causing the Edison Eyecon to begin glowing.
"Interesting answer, Boy." The Eyecon said, as Ghost looked at it. "Edison, is that you?"
"EEEEEHHHH?! EDISON!" Mairi screamed, in shock at hearing her hero's voice.
"That's right! I am Edison!" The Eyecon declared. "I wanted to see if you had enough determination to continue your goal, and what a surprise you came up with quite the interesting answer."
"Does that mean?" Ghost asked, as the Eyecon nodded. "That's right! I shall lend you my power and help you with your goal!"
"Wow… alright then Edison… let's do this!" Ghost declared, as he raised the Eyecon before pressing the button.
Ghost removed his Ore Eyecon making his current Parka disappear before he inserted the Musashi Eyecon and closed the driver causing a new Parka ghost to fly out.
Eye~!
"Woah!… a new hoodie?" Mairi blinked, looking up at the flying Parka Ghost.
BATCHMIRINA BATCHMIRINA BATCHMIRINA
"Is that meant to be Edison himself?" Asagi blinked, as Ghost took a deep breath and struck a pose.
"My life… will burn bright… BRIGHTER THAN ANYONE IN THE WORLD!" Ghost declared, as he pulled the lever on his driver before pushing it back in.
KAIGAN! EDISON!
The Edison Parka then settled down over his body and as soon as Ghost was wearing the Parka a new faceplate appeared that looked like a light bulb and covered his face completing the transformation.
ELECI! HIRAMEKI! HATSUMEI-O~!
"Grr! Just cause you have a new form doesn't mean you can beat me!" The Ganma yelled, as he used his cannon arm to fire a new wave.
"Not this again!" Ghost was pushed back by the gravitational waves a bit but quickly took out his GanGun Saber in Gun mode.
He then fired bolts of electricity from his gun at the Ganma forcing him to move back.
Ghost then dashed in throwin several kicks before landing in the ground and firing more electricity at the monster forcing him to leap back.
"I'm gonna blow you into bits!" The Ganma screamed, charging up a powerful energy blast from his canon.
"Edison, lend me your power!" Ghost said, using his sacred gear to begin absorbing energy from the surrounding area into his body and charging up his gun.
Ghost then placed his gun's hilt near the front of the driver causing energy to move from the driver to the Gun.
DAI KAIGAN!
Gan Gan Mina! Gan Gan Mina!
Ghost then turned back over to the Ganma and aimed his gun at the monster as it charged up another blast.
OMEGA SHOOT!
The two of them then fired two powerful blasts towards each other, causing them to clash.
Sparks then moved around the place scaring the people watching them as they moved back.
"HAAAAAAAAAA!" Ghost screamed, as he absorbed more electricity causing his blast to grow bigger and bigger until hitting the Ganma.
"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" The monster screamed, before exploding leaving only a blue and white Eyecon which flew towards Ghost who caught it.
"Oh my god! That was awesome!" Mairi yelled, running towards Ghost as he disappeared in front of her.
"What no! Come on! Damn it! I just wanna talk to you." Mairi yelled, rubbing her head while Asagi fell to the ground.
The older man started shaking a bit, before his mouth was shaped into a large grin.
"BAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" He laughed, making Mairi jump as he looked over at the older man.
"Woah! Hey you okay?" Mairi asked, as the older man turned to her.
"Oh I'm fine, I just finally realised how stupid I was being." Asagi grinned, looking up to the sky.
"I was so close to making contact with the spiritual world that some of the Devils were scared of me… but that doesn't mean I should give up! I need to keep going! After all, I was so close to meeting them on equal terms." Asagi grinned.
"Wait! So you're really going to continue your work." Mairi asked, as Asagi got back up. "Of course, after all Humans have infinite potential… so I shouldn't waste mine."
"So, you wanted to see some of my findings? I have them all in my lab!" Asagi asked, as Mairi nodded. "Yes! Please sir!"
As the two of them went back to the lab we see Akira and Koneko watching this going on.
"Looks like we won't be able to complete the job yet." Koneko said, as Ghost crossed his arms.
"Guess not… and now Mairi is even more resolved to finding out about the spiritual world." Ghost said, as Koneko looked over at him.
"Is that really so bad? I mean you two are like family right… is it so bad having them to rely on." Koneko said, making Akira go silent.
"Maybe not…" Akira said, before the two of them made their way back to the academy to report to Rias.
"Well now that was certainly interesting." We hear as we see someone who had watched everything that just went on.
She looked to be about Akira's age with long flowing black hair and red eyes. She wore a school uniform which consisted of a dark red jacket with the letter "P" embroidered in gold, a white undershirt, a red bow, and a green skirt with a thin white stripe around the lower end of it.
"That Mairi girl… her sacred gear could be dangerous… I suppose it's time for me to step in…" She said, as a pair of black wings sprouted out before she flew off.
And done, woo boy that was a really long chapter to do but I'm glad I was finally able to do it.
I didn't fully intend to have Mairi be a major focus on this chapter but since I no longer plan on including Issei in this story, I have a new role for her I didn't originally intend.
I know you guys are gonna be really mad about me not using Issei, but once again I just feel like he's not necessary for this story and I don't want to end up completely changing him just to fit this story.
But anyway on to the reviews
DcdGojira: Thanks
yogaratw607: Then that isn't Issei! That's just a new Oc that's based off him! This is exactly what I wanted to avoid. Also I might do that for the Eyecons for later in the story
Kamenmaximus: I thought God made the Sacred Gears as a way to give humanity miracles? They have nothing to do with the faction war, most likely later but will probably be based on characters like Heracles, Achilles etc
Arturwho: Thanks
But anyway with that said don't forget to review and favourite this story and of course
See You Next Chapter~
