'Ryder's thoughts'
Normal
*transition*
*woods outside of kuoh two weeks before issei gets killed by Raynare*
'Fuck' Ryder thought to himself as he looked around his surroundings and wondered where he was. 'Radio isn't working either... where am I? ' Ryder felt exposed and didn't like that... he lost too many friends who went out in the open but he couldn't think about them right now so Ryder travel into the woods sticking to the thick bushes and shrubbery and he walked. He continued to walk until he stumbled upon a abandoned church covered in vegetation and crumbling at different sections of the roof. Ryder moved towards the mountains behind the church believing that it wouldn't be capable of defending against a attack.
Ryder stop in front of a cave entrance twenty minutes away from the church.
'This will do fine until I get my bearings on where the hell I am'. Ryder spend three days making the cave his home setting up traps and leaving white hand prints all around the mouth of the cave thinking that he might be close to Zion and didn't want the sorrows to see him again after what he did.
*three days until Issei's death *
Ryder decided to leave his armor and weapons in the cave as he went into the town to see who was there or if anyone lived there. Before leaving the woods at the edge of town he saw people walking round in what appeared to be a market. 'Did I land in China?... No they aren't speaking that weird language I heard from those ghouls back in the capital wasteland on their distress signals or those Chinese commandos in that food factory' Ryder thought as watch the citizens go about their daily lives. Ryder decided to sneak in the town using a stealth boy. As he moved about the town Ryder used his pip boy 2500 to record voices to discover that they were speaking Japanese much to Ryder's surprised. As he discovered more information about the land he was in he entered a book store and immediately went to the history section and took any book about America and a translation book and returned to the woods. As he was heading back he was walking on a bridge and saw someone coming and used another stealthboy and waited as a teenage boy leaned against the rail.'I wonder why he stop...if he jumps I'm not saving his ass' Ryder thought as a beautiful young girl stop on the bridge staring at the boy. "Excuse me... are you Issei Hyoudou" the young girl asked the boy. "Yeah" Issei answer but seemed nervous when he realized how beautiful she was... also her tits. "You see I seen you walking here for a few days now and you seem so lonely and..." the girl blush and shouted in embarrassment "Will you please go out with me!" The boy seemed shocked but not as shocked as the one hiding right next to him 'what the fuck this is bullshit you see the guy for a couple of days and that makes you want to date him. Bullshit she probably has a gang nearby ready to mugged him (Ryder has never dated before and doesn't understand what it means and has never seen women as beautiful as the dxd girls go ) but that didn't happen they exchange numbers and the girl left and as soon as she left Issei jump and shouted in joy for how lucky he was whilst the Ranger slip away from the town
