Chapter 2: One of Those Weeks.
The nights in a remote village in Sierra Leone was quite peaceful compared to the rest of the world. No noise of the city to interrupt the villagers sleep, no light pollution to saturate the sky so you have a full view of the stars. Around this time the villagers was fast asleep with a few adolescents running around to sneak away and enjoy the full experience of youth. The fields plentiful of crops and beautiful landscapes around them as the farmers worked and labored to upkeep them. Except tonight the night sky were lit with an orange glow as fire consume the houses, the sounds of crying people around in search of their loved ones.
Bodies filled the areas around them and fields was laid to ruin. It look like a battle between armies had ravage the place. In the center of it all there was a young man laying on the ground with a spear in his chest. The youth had a powerful build, his mahogany colored skin was covered in marking of a forgotten language.
He was naked with a brown lion skin pelt that had the beast's maw on his head. Standing over him was younger boy that looked to be entering the stages of becoming a teenager. His features were covered by the shadows the flames has cast. The only thing that was standing out was his glowing green eyes that had a lizard like slit in them.
" You...Do you know what have done boy?" He croaked in between breaths as his life is beginning to end. He is trying to remove the spear which was still embedded in to his chest. The spear looked like a typical ancient war spear that had runes similar to what's on the old man's skin etched into its stone head. The most noticeable feature is the wildebeest tail that was connected to the head of it.
" I don't care, you went back on our deal." The boy said in a dead monotone voice, He walked over to the dying man and starting pushing the spear deeper into the man's chest . The man coughed ,golden inchor spilling onto the ground. He looked into the frozen emerald pools of the pre teens eyes.
" Yes...because your end of the bargain will result in the destruction of not only yourself but the world around you. Make it known boy the gods of this land will hunt you. You will never find peace. I swear on my name Laran I will reincarnate and chase you to the ends of this earth and slay you serpent."
" I'll wait for you." With that the boy took out the spear and plunged it directly into the man heart killing him. " When you do this will be waiting for you." Taking the spear out of the body the boy surveyed the chaos around him. He looked up into the night sky he stared into the heavens with a challenging look in his eyes. He continued to stare until he saw a crimson ball of fire streaking across the sky. As he look towards him he saw the fireball moving closer and closer to him till was almost near him. He closed his eyes as it impacted and exploded.
BEEP BEEP.
Issei's alarm sounded off until his sleepy hand reached over and silenced it. He laid in bed wide awake taking in the sight of his room. His sweep around the space until hey eyes was on a long pole like object that was wrapped in blood red cloth that was hanging on his wall. With a sigh he got up and begin to get ready for the day. Exiting his room he walked through the house to see Kato's room door close meaning he didn't wake up yet. He left his home and began his walk to school. When he arrived at the gate he was prepared to see the familiar sight of his only two friends only to see a very crossed Yumo instead.
Surprised at the sight he continued walking into the school grounds with an unbothered look on his face passing Yuma. She quickly ran up to him stopping mere inches in front of his face.
" Why haven't you call me all week?" She stated in harsh tone. Even though in her head she knew it was juvenile and stupid because he is nothing but a mark. At the same time nobody blows off and ignore Rayner of the fallen.
" Well good morning to you too. To answer your question I was busy all last week." Issei replied nonchalantly. He walked around her only to find Yuma still on his side walking with him. " With what? I may ask. I'm sorry you disappearing at the drop of a dime for a week comes off as rude you know?" She continued to try to get a fixation on his whereabouts from the last week.
" It's for work related purposes. Not that i actually care...right?" She had to ask herself.
Issei said nothing but to continued to walk through the courtyard taking in all the harsh stares that the student body was giving him. It slowly came to Issei that his bout with Yuri wasn't forgotten about. He also felt the eyes of somebody actually watching him so he turned towards the source and look into a old school building. There he found the sapphire blue eyes of Rias Gremory on him. He turned away to see where he was going only for her eyes to remind him of something. He stopped Yuma to reach into his pocket to produce a silver chain necklace with a sapphire gem embedded into it.
" I got this for you. This isn't an apology for going MIA all of the sudden but I hope it's a start." He said while he handed the girl her gift.
" It's beautiful, It must've been a expensive." She put her new necklace on while secretly getting giddy with glee.
" Oh I got it for... next to nothing." The brown haired boy said while rubbing the the back of his head. It was the truth it was one of the many things they looted from Diego's compound before they left. The two began to walk through the hallways saying their goodbyes till after school since they was in separate classes. His first half of the day was uneventful, he was on his way to lunch when Sona the student council president approached him.
" Hyoudou-san could you please see the come to the student council room after school. We have to discuss your attendance from the last week." She stated in her usual I mean business voice. For Issei he was beyond curious right now, this was the first time anyone from the devils' group approached him.
" Sure, Just make it quick." He replied
He followed Sona to the student council's room, and stood in front of her desk with his hands in his pockets. He slowly turned in place around the room making note that he was the only other person here, well almost. His eyes stopped for a split second in the conner of the room behind Sona and looked away. The two of them stood there in silence staring down one another till the black haired girl coughed into her fist.
" It seem we have a number of problems regarding you Hyoudou-san." Sona started. " For starts you injured a fellow student in a unofficial bount a little over a week ago. Yuri was okay with some minor stiffness and bruising it was clear you went overboard."
" In my defence, I didn't mean to injure my classmate as badly as I did it was...an accident." Issei added.
'
" If it was an accident as you say it is why haven't you say so in the past, why wait now."
" Well due the fact that most Kendo practitioners follow the Bushido Code, within that code all fights rather it be practice or otherwise must be held with honor. To say that my victory over her was an accident will spit on her pride as a swordsman...woman will only demoralize her worst." He presented a good argument and he watch it play around in Sona's head for a full three seconds before she agreed with the notion.
" Didn't know you know the followings of Bushido Hyoudou-san. I understand where you're coming from and I will take that into consideration. On the subject of you not showing up to class for an entire week care to clarify that? "
" I already cleared that with the principal of the school, he said i was excused for my reason. So may I ask why are you asking me this?" Issei questioned with a fold of his arms.
" Due to my position as student council president I am obligated to make sure that each and every student is doing their best to improve themselves and improve the school. So when one student is missing for a week they tend to fall behind. It is my job to insure that student is caught up and put on the right path." Sona responded.
" Isn't that more of a teachers job? You know the one that has the responsibility as an educator to do what they went through school for? I mean it seem like you overstepping your bounds there Sitori-san" Issei fired back with a fiery gaze in his eyes.
Unused to the resistance of a fellow student she was taken back a little by Issei's comment. She then began to glare right into the brunette, How dare he was her only thoughts.
" It is so Hyoudou-kun but it was it is a duty to uphold the trad-"
" What tradition do a school has that give's a teenage girl the same power of an adult staff of this school? I seen how some teachers seem to kiss you and your cronies' asses whenever you are around. It makes me wonder how did a STUDENT has that effect on grown men?" Issei interrupted.
" What are you implying Hyoudou?" Sona replied with an heated look on her face.
" I came over three possibilities. A. You where fucking some of the teachers and blackmailing them." As soon he said that Sona stood out her chair to say more than a few words. She stopped when he held his hand up, " Hold on I crossed that off my list as soon as possible. Two reasons one you're not the type and two no offence but sometimes your attitude and personality is a big turn off."
" That what asking me not be offended about? He just applied that i slept my way up the student body." She internally thought as her hand gripped the table so hard it began to creak..
" Better yet what wrong with my personality. So what? I am strong will girl that won't submit to anyone especially a man?"
" B. You have ties with who ever is bankrolling this thing or you are directly bankrolling it. To be frank with this place being called Kouh Academy and your name being a related to a famous demon clan it a little suspicious." Issei continued. Sona raised and eyebrow even though she got a little nervous at the possibility of him knowing about the supernatural. She was about to respond to that when the bell rang. Issei said nothing but walked towards the door.
" Wait Hyoudou." She stopped him before he walked out. He turned slightly towards her" What was your third possibility?" She really wanted him to leave her sight but her mind wants to hear the last possibility.
" The last possibility is that you're damn good a what you do." With that he walked out the office. With him gone she sat down and sighed.
" That is the most infuriating man I ever met. What do you think Tsubaki?" With that a taller black haired beauty with glasses materialized out of the conor behind Sona.
" I wanted to choke him...I wish I could of strangled him for his disrespect. All though he has some talent. He saw through the cloak spell that's for sure." She said with a stern look on her face looking towards the door.
" Interesting. Well I let Rias have all the fun of trying to recruiting him." Sona said with a was a few minutes later that she realized that he still didn't answer her question of his whereabouts last week.
At the Hyoudou Residents.
Kato was many things. A good bartender, a world class professional soldier for hire, a savvy cook, and a guy who sold half his soul to a Celtic witch and a Japanese Oni. A morning person? Nah that's not him at all. So he was more than agitated when he heard his doorbell ringing. By the sound of it who ever it was wasn't going away. So he got up out his bedroom and answered the door. On the other side of it was a tall fair skinned man with a neatly trimmed goatee. He had black hair with the front of his hair dyed blond. His golden eye shined brightly in the sun light. He was dressed down in an expensive suit with a blue button up under it. He was amused at the sight of Kato still in his boxers answering the door.
" Really Kato? Still in bed passed noon?" The man smiled coly at the bearded man.
" What do you want Azazel? I'm still hung the the fuck over." Kato replied with a dry and raspy voice as he let the other man in the house. Once in Azazel made his way into the house while Kato went directly to the kitchen to grab a bottle of water.
" Well first I'm here to inform you of the check clearing and you will paid for the Mexico job." The governor to the fallen said while getting comfortable on the coach. Kato said nothing but just nodded at him. " Secondly I'm sure you are aware that I have some wayward subordinates, some of my guys doing their own op without any four of the Cadre's approval."
" We know they are here Azazel, we have always thought that one of the Cadre has signed off on it. Plus you said four they're five of you." Kato said after a long sip of water.
" True but I am having trouble with Kokabiel...he seems not like himself the last few months but i'll look into it." The dyed hair man then don a serious look to his face. " They are beginning to move again Kato. You and the boy still haven't chose what you want to do."
Kato finished his water bottle and sat the empty plastic on the table. " We made it very clear last time Azazel, me and the kid we are Ronin. Warriors without masters. We work with you not for you if the money is right. Plus you have that battle junkie with you so what you need both of the Heavenly Dragons for? Planning to invade a patheon or two? Also the last time they got together I remember Vali almost lost his arms and his right leg It took weeks for Issei's ribs and legs to heal and weeks for him move around again."
" Such is the nature of they're sacred gears. They are destined to fight each other we are just delaying it. Thing is i'm not recruiting you, I want you on a job on the biggest pay out you ever have."
" Im listening." Kato leaned in. The governor of the fallen angels leaned forward also. " This will be a solo assignment, I don't want Issei involved just yet. Your job will be infiltration and espionage. I will pay you fifty million US dollars now and another fifty million when it's done." Azazel know he has Kato undivided attention.
" Infiltrations are my bread and butter hell I made a career out of getting in and out of places im not supposed to be in. Though espionage isn't my forte i'm more of the Direct Action type of guy. But i'm proficient in it."
" That will have to do. A lot is riding on this Kato, you got to play the part." Azazel's word suddenly became heavy as if a fortune isn't at stake here.
" Who is the target, how long is it?" Kato asked. He already planned on saying by to the kid.
" The time length of the operation should take about a year. The target group the Chaos Brigade more in dept…the Hero Faction."
Kato whistled " You throwing me into the lion's den ya know?"
Azazell stood up and walked to a wall where he spotted a picture of Kato and group of guys in full combat gear posing on a mountain top somewhere with an American flag waving behind them. Next to that it had a green flag with cross arrows on them. Some of the men faces was blacked out, and the ones that didn't had dates beside them. .
" I realized that, but your the only human I know that will walk out with them as pelts."
Back at the school.
The school day ended with Issei walking side by side outside the gate. They was engaged in a conversation about they're last history lesson. They continued to walk and talk on there way home where once again they part ways. Frustrating Rayneer to no end and another miss opportunity. Issei walked in the house to dead silence. Curious he drew his pocket knife that he kept concealed, he moved around trying to feel was anything out of place. Only to come back with nothing, but he noticed a note on the kitchen table. He picked it up and begin to read it noticing it's Kato's handwriting.
Dear Nephew, Make this short im gone on a job for undisclosed amount of time so you be on your own. I left ten million US dollars in our shared account behind for you do what you need to do. If you blow it all on alcohol, video games, drugs, or cheap hookers your shit out of luck. Take care of yourself i'll see you soon. Love Ronin actual. He found it chessy that he used his old callsign but whatever he had the house to himself so what he gonna do? Not go to school of course. He look down to see it was writing in the back. P.S Your still going to school mother fucker, I will find out and I stop what im doing to smack the shit out of you." Issei knew it was a bluff but he decided to listen to uncle's wishes.
With that a weekend plan came to mind, it was stupid in the short sight but he didn't care he was bored. So he asked Yuma out to dinner at his place Saturday night over the phone. She said yes without delay, With that he took stock of the fridge and started to write down a grocery list. He also ramped up the wards around the house just in case the fallen get any funny ideas.
Friday rolled around with the rest of week seem a bit rushed. He still hasn't seen a hide or hair of Yuri after the match. He was wondering if that girl followed the rules of Bushido at all which included honoring you sworn word. He had feeling she will turn out somewhere soon. The devils are starting to make moves towards him earlier he was greeted with the student council vice president tying urge him into a club or some sort. Saying it was a part of the school participation criteria that students had to find a club of sorts or receive negative marks against them.
Problem is after that kendo match with Yuri no club wanted him. The only option was the Occult Research club headed by Rias Gremory. So it seem they mean to recruit him as well. He gave her the ill keep looking excuse and planned his home dinner date with another supernatural being. After school he headed downtown to pick up the groceries and ran a few errands. On his way home a lady with a bat custom handed him a paper with a magic circle on it.
He rolled his eyes and pocketed the item thinking at some point he have to confront them some day. He headed home and called Yuma over and from there they began their dinner date. Issei managed to whip up a fine curry chicken dish that the fallen angel hate to admit that it was delicious. After dinner they went into the living room with a movie Issek pick out.
" So Issei-kun. I never got my answer to where you was at last week." Yuma stated while scooting closer to her date.
" I was visiting family overseas. Long lost relatives that I never knew in America." Issei came back with the same recycle lie he and his uncle came up with.
Yuma knew it was a lie, the gathered information on him is that his uncle is the only family he has. So she decided to let him have that and keep the conversation moving. Speaking of which.
" Where is your uncle?" The fallen angel ask. She haven't seen seen signs of another person even being here.
" He is currently on a business trip abroad." Issei answered while he was refilling his drink. To Rayneer this was music to her ears, she can take him right here without fear of a witness. She got closer to him and put her hand on his knee rubbing it. She started sending minute amount of her magic to her nails slowly turning them into talons.
" So we are truly alone than?" She said in a seductive tone. She start sliding her hand up his leg planing to open up the artery in leg and wait till he pass out from blood loss. Just to feed her need to cause suffering to her targets. She wont let him bleed out because he is need alive to take his gear.
" Yes." The dragon wielder said in a husky voice. He knew what she had in mind but he had a plan to turn the tables in his favor. Her hand travel up his leg till she felt something. Something that she liked. " Wow...this is nice. He is developed for his age. Too bad I wont see how well he uses…" Her thoughts was cut off as Issei's lips closed on her's. For a second she felt fireworks explode in her chest. His lips was softer than she thought and she lost concentration on her magic reverting her nails to what it was.
Issei deepen the kiss pulling her closer and back till she was on top of him. They continued to kiss till the need for air was great. As they part they stared at each others eyes til Yuma took off her shirt revealing a black bra that had an ample breast contained in it. She moved to keep kissing him till put her finger her lips.
" The couch isn't big enough." Issei said while he picked her up with her legs tucked under her arms. He made his way to his room with the angel in tow and closed the door with is foot.
LEMON START
Issei laid Yuma on her back on his surprisingly soft bed. He took off his shirt revealing strong attractive muscles. Yuma slid off her pants to show her matching black laced panties. Issei starting planting soft kisses down her face down to her flat stomach. When he got down to her navel he looked up to her with a grin on his face. She gave him a nod to continue. His hard calloused hands slid down her panties and he then started kissing her core. He earned some excited cries and moans of pleasure as the fallen angel took his brown locks in closer. Issei continues pleasure his date till a loud cry was heard from her and gusher of nectar came from her.
He then stood and looked into her purple eyes that had a look of hunger to them. She noticed that his pants was still on.
" Take them off." She barked at him. He smiled and made a show of taking his belt off. He was deliberately taking his belt as slow as possible till she got impatient and almost rip his pants off. There she had a good looked at " little Issei" or not so little Issei right now. She then grabbed his hand and pulled him down on bed to her. When was on top of her he slipped himself inside her making her moan of pleasure. Her moans became cries as he started moving his hips pumping in and out of her. She knew that it was wrong but she didn't care cause this was a need had to be taken care of in a hundred years.
" A mortal is making me feel like this." She thought as Issei flip her over on her face and knees. He put himself back in and starting going to work. He started out slow and easy than quickly started picking up speed. Rayneer's mind went blank with nothing but pleasure she gripped the bed sheets.
" Im...going...to...cum." Issei said while he started picking up more speed in his strokes.
She heard him but didn't care she already got hers, just to add to his suffering her legs hooked behind his. She then started moving her body with his moving him closer to the edge. With a grunt he pulled out of her and released himself on her back. With a pant he laid beside her once again locking eye contact with her.
" So round two?" He asked. She said nothing but laughed and kissed him again.
LEMON END
Hours later the young couple was cuddle up basking in the afterglow of their activities. Yuma wakes up and looked towards her still sleeping partener.. He was helpless and it would be nothing to capture him. But she could bring herself to do it. For some reason she don't want to do it. Shaking those from her head she made her ways to her clothes and grabbed her cellphone. A message been sent. Do not fail me. We need you, I need you to succeed. She don't need to know who sent the message, she need to do what she have to do and do it quickly. It's something about doing it now wouldn't sit right with her. What she didn't know that might have been her only chance.
She left his house and went back to her base of operations. The next couple hours when Issei awoke he stretched and felt great. He showered then started dressing in his street clothes that consisted of black jeans and red t shirt with a gold twenty on the back of it. He notice that he was getting low on certain item around the house so he went the local shop not to far from his home. He returned home shortly while felt around his pockets he remembered he still had the flier from the other day. He put it back in his pocket and starting to put things away.
Issei was in the middle of putting his supplies away when he received a message from Yuma. "Meet me in the park at 7 pls. I can't Talk right now I need to tell you something." Issei starred perplexed by the message than he started to panic.
" SHIT….I FORGOT TO USE PROTECTION….I SWORE I PULLED OUT!" The dragon wielder shout to himself. For the next few hours he had to calm himself from the panic attack he was having. He left the house to go meet her, in a half a mile walk to the park Issei noticed that the space around him was distorted. He found the purple eyed girl in front of the fountain with her back to him. He walk up and stop a foot behind her, he stuffed his hands in pockets and waited to she noticed him. The park was quite the only sounds where just the fountain and a few crickets in the bushes. After a brief moment Yuma turned towards him with her eyes hidden by her hair.
" You wanted to talk to me about something?" Issei said breaking the silence.
" Issei-kun...I made a mistake. I became too wrapped up with you. I made the mistake of putting my personal feelings into you." She the stepped closer to him within her arms reach, Issei's hands slid out of his pockets. " So to make this a painless for me as possible, I have a request for you."
" What is it?" The brunette boy relaxed and slightly bent his knees a little. With his hand he cupped her chin to lift her head up. When he did he was treated with a cruel and sadistic smile, but her eyes said something different.
" Will you... die for me?" With that her hand flashed to his stomach with a golden tainted light.
