Ranma 1/2, High School DxD, Darkstalkers and the rest are owned by their respective owners. I own nothing.
If only I did.
Sorry about that, fell asleep all day yesterday.
Chapter 1
Swinging a wooden practice sword around, Nodoka Saotome, dressed in tight pants and a loose t-shirt, let loose a sigh and grabbed a towel to wipe the sweat off of her face. "It's not easy getting old." Sure, she wasn't quite yet fourty, but she could feel her physical abilities starting to decline, even if just a little bit.
Even though her demon blood kept her from aging too much, that didn't mean that she didn't feel the effects of aging. "I wonder how full-blooded Demons and Devils handle aging?" She mused, knowing that there were stories of Demons living hundreds of years with ease in her family's history.
A bright light appeared not far away and Nodoka turned to see what was going on when three people walked out of it and the light faded away. Nodoka stared in surprise.
"Greetings, human, take us to your leader." The male of the three said in a monotone tone of voice.
"Ranma?" Nodoka gawked in surprise. "What are you doing here?"
"There is no Ranma, only Zuul."
Suddenly a giggling sound broke the tension and Ranma looked to his side where Lillie was trying to stop her laughing. "S-sorry."
Ranma let out a huff of air before grinning. "Aw come on, I was having fun." He looked back at Nodoka, who was grinning back at him. "Sorry, mom, you were looking surprised, I just did the first thing that popped into my mind."
"By pretending to be an alien of some sort?" Nodoka asked in amusement before she put down her training sword and walked over to him. "My, you're looking more manly than the last time I saw you." She turned her attention to Lilith and smiled. "So, when can I expect grandchildren from you?"
"Within a year." Lilith winked at her. "We finally have things settled down enough with the castle and surrounding Demons that Master and I are going to have children soon." Part of the reason Lilith was so eager to have children was to find out just how Succubi had children, since she couldn't figure it out, no matter how much she looked into it and Nabiki wouldn't tell her, saying that she'd find out when she gave birth.
Nodoka nodded and looked at Lillie. "And how have you been, dear? Both Kunou-chan and Leonardo miss you." Leonardo didn't say much, but considering how often he paused whenever he walked past Lillie's old room, Nodoka could tell that he missed her. Part of her thought it was adorable but another part of her knew it was because the boy had very few people around that cared for him when he was younger.
Lillie gave her a thumbs up and Nodoka chuckled softly.
"Lillie-chan still doesn't talk much, huh?" She asked Ranma, who shook his head.
"Nope. She'll speak when she has to, but most of the time she's silent." Ranma wondered if it was a hold-over from being part of Ophis. "I think part of it is because she used to be part of Ophis and since Ophis likes it to be quiet..."
"Ah, that makes sense." Nodoka nodded and smiled at Lillie. "There's nothing wrong with being quiet, but don't hesitate to speak up if you want something."
The ponytailed Dragon nodded and took a step closer to Ranma, hugging his arm.
Ranma smiled and moved his arm so that his hand was against Lillie's back and hugged her to his body while rubbing her back in small circles and turned his attention to Nodoka. "So, we're going to head to Kuoh Academy to meet with Issei and the others." A smirk came to his face. "And see how our pregnant Princess is doing."
Nodoka suddenly doubled over laughing and the other three stared at her in surprise. "Oh, hahahahaha! You have NO idea!"
"Well, we should..." Ranma trailed off as another flash of light caught his attention and he looked past his mother to see someone teleporting into the yard. "...Are the wards out or something? Oh!" His eyes widened as he saw who it was when the light faded away. "Serafall."
The twin-tailed Devil's eyes widened as she ran up to Ranma, who walked over to her, and she glomped him, slamming into him so hard that he had to spin around a couple of times to keep his balance while holding her. "Ranma! I was hoping to see you today. Sona never lets me come over to her place and since I know that you don't mind me coming here, I thought I'd come here before I went to go see my sister."
Ranma gave her a quick kiss on the lips and put her down. "Oh? Going to tell her then?"
Serafall giggled as she skipped in a circle before looking at him and winking, causing the air to turn yellow with some star-shaped objects to appear around her. "You know it." She said while sticking her tongue out in a cute way. Seeing Ranma smile at her, she turned to Lilith and ran up to the other girl, grabbing her hands and shaking them while bouncing up and down. "Lilith! It's been too long!"
Lilith gave her a wry smirk as she shook hands with the excitable Devil King. "Serafall, it's only been eight weeks since we last saw each other."
"I know!" Serafall pouted. "Being a full time diplomat for Makai and a Devil King really drags, you know? I still need to do my show! I don't want to go on hiatus for too long. But I might have to soon with this season."
"Well, not really." Ranma said and Serafall turned to him, her eyes sparkling. "Remember how you wanted me to make a return on your show?" Serafall nodded. "So why not have a new bad guy "revive"," Ranma put the last word in air quotations, "my character from the crossover episode and the first thing I do is seal you away for the season? We'd need to work with some magical girls, but I know some that wouldn't mind taking over for you for this season."
"Oooh!" Serafall's eyes sparkled. "But..." Her eyes returned to normal as a thought came to her, "do you think that Magical Girls will really help a Devil out?"
Both Ranma and Lilith started to laugh, causing Serafall to look confused. "I know one who most certainly will, though her friends will tease her about her nickname becoming a reality if she does."
Lilith fell to her butt and started laughing. "Oh man! I hope that the hammer loli is nearby when you ask, Master."
Ranma sweat-dropped and knew just how that would turn out. "Anyway, let's go to the academy."
"Have fun." Nodoka smiled and waved. "Your father should be working there right now." Ranma nodded. "I have to make sure that dinner and snacks are ready for everyone when they get home."
"Oh!" Ranma snapped his fingers and pointed at Nodoka. "After we're done here, I'm going to be heading to Kyoto, want to come with?" Nodoka's eyes sparkled and she nodded. "Cool, I'll let you know when we go."
As the four left, Nodoka merely turned and walked inside. "I should make sure to make plenty of food then." After all, it had been nearly five months since she last saw her son.

A bit later...
"Man, things haven't changed here, have they?" Lilith asked rhetorically. "Oh, wait, I think some things had to get fixed around here." She could feel a twinge of repair magic in the air and knew that something big had happened since she had last been to Kuoh Academy. 'Though, from how faint it is, it must have happened over a month ago.'
Serafall giggled and put a hand up to her mouth. "I heard that there was a big commotion in the school when it came out that Rias was pregnant with Issei's baby."
Ranma chuckled and couldn't wait to hear what happened. "Anyway, let's go inside, looks like school's ending for the day." The others nodded and walked inside.
After getting inside, some of the students gathered around them in shock.
"Wow! Is that you, Lilith? What happened to you?" One of the girls from the volleyball club gasped in surprise. "What happened?"
"Puberty came in like a wrecking ball." Lilith grinned at them while winking and sticking her tongue out.
"What about you?" One of the girls pointed at Ranma, who blinked and pointed at himself. "Where have you been?"
Ranma jerked a thumb at Lilith. "I've been living with her. We had to go to her ancestral family home to deal with some issues and it took several months just to get time to come back for a little while."
The next thing anyone knew, there was some clapping and everyone got quiet and the crowd split apart, revealing three people.
"Seriously, why is everyone... URK?! S-sister?!" The first person, Sona, gasped in surprise as her glasses slid down her face. "What are you doing here? Dropping in so suddenly at that."
Serafall's eyes sparkled and she suddenly rushed forward, glomping onto Sona. "Sona-chan! I tried to give you a heads up that I was coming today, but you never picked up your phone! Why, I even tried to contact Tsubaki-chan but she never answered me either!"
Tsubaki blushed and looked away. "I apologize, I was low on battery on my phone and could not find my charger, so I didn't answer the phone for anyone unless they texted me first."
Serafall smiled and let go of the hug. "Ah, so that's what it was, well, that's understandable, but please don't ignore me if I call in the future, okay?" A sudden aura surrounded Serafall that was invisible to nearly everyone, but everyone in the room, except Lilith, Lillie and Ranma, shivered in fear.
"N-noted." Tsubaki nodded. "I shall endeavor to keep my phone charged in case you call me so I can at least warn Sona about your arrival."
The aura disappeared around Serafall as she smiled and skipped in a circle. "Goodie! Goodie!"
"So, um, big sister..." Sona was blushing and wished that this would end soon so she could get away from Serafall. The sheer amount of people that looked at her weirdly was starting to bother her. "Why did you come here?"
Serafall smiled and grabbed Sona's hand, bouncing up and down. "I just wanted to let you know that you're going to be an aunt soon."
"Oh, is that all?" Sona said, sighing in relief, "I'm glad it's..." She trailed off, her eyes going white and blank as she registered what Serafall told her. "Huh?"
Serafall giggled and bounced over to Ranma, hugging him. "We're going to have a baby together."
"HUH?!" Sona yelled in shock.
She wasn't the only one as everyone in the hallway had a similar reaction.
Serafall pouted and looked at Ranma. "I tried to tell her before, but she never answered me."
Ranma nodded and gave her hand a squeeze. "Well, it can't be helped then." Serafall nodded.
Lilith let out a long-suffering sigh. 'I can't wait to get this whole thing over with so Master can breed me.' She thought to herself.
Still, the reactions were hilarious, especially as Sona had steam coming out of her ears while her face turned red and she fainted.
"Sona-chan!" Serafall gasped in surprise while Tsubaki grabbed her King. "Oh dear, what happened?" She had a scared expression on her face. "I hope Sona-chan is okay."
"She'll be fine." Tsubaki told Serafall, "she was just over-stimulated by the announcement, my lady."
"...Oh." Serafall giggled and rubbed a knuckle against her head while sticking her tongue out. "Silly me."
End Chapter 1
Poor, poor Sona.
