Issei was walking down the steps slowly working his way home, his backpack loose in his left hand.

'I'm not nuts,' he said, his eyes scanning the surroundings wildly. 'My eyes are freaking out on me. This is weird...I feel so different...Like there's something inside me that's changing.'

As he walked, he suddenly heard a child's voice ringing out: "No, Mommy, buy it!" He turned to see a child in a bright red dress running towards her mother, who was looking frazzled.

The mother's voice echoed back, stern and disapproving. "If you don't stop acting like a spoiled brat, you're grounded!"

Issei snapped back around, his face confused. He started to run, lost in thought.

Why did he hear that child's voice so clearly? It didn't make sense.

He felt his mind racing as he ran through the streets, his body moving on autopilot.

He felt a sense of unease wash over him. The image of Yuma flashed in his mind, and Issei felt a pang of sadness.

'He remembered taking Yuma on their first date to this park. It was real... Or was it?'

Issei turned around, looking into the darkness. He couldn't see anything.

"What is going on?" he muttered, his voice laced with confusion.

As he turned back around, he noticed a peculiar-looking man emerging from the shadows. The man wore a pale gray trench coat that seemed out of place in the evening light, and his dark blue eyes were fixed intently on Issei.

"Well, this really is unfortunate," he said, his voice dripping with sarcasm. The man was slowly walked towards him

"Me running into you, that is..."

Fear was coursing through Issei body 'Oh man...Why won't my body stop shaking?' when the man locked eyes this cause Issei to jump back to the other side of the fountain

Issei was shocked at the distance he cleared 'I meant to back up a little, not jump!'

"Looking for a way out?" the man was amuse at Issei fear.

'I don't understand what's happening to me?!' Issei turn and ran as fast as he could.

Just as he was getting away, feathers appeared above him. "Feathers? Yuma?!" Issei exclaimed, looking up to see the mysterious man floating above him, his black wings spread wide.

The man landed in front of Issei, effectively blocking his escape. Issei stumbled backward, dropping his book bag in the process. "Such cowardice," the man sneered. "I can't abide lower-class beings."

"No...! How can this be real?" Issei protested, his voice trembling with fear.

The man raised his left hand to face Issei. "So, let's see... It appears that your friends and master are nowhere to be found," he said, his tone devoid of emotion.

"You show no signs of disappearing, nor are any magic circles being deployed," the man continued. "Therefore, I will assume that you are nothing but a stray, is that correct?"

As he finished speaking, the man dropped his raised arm and swapped to his right hand, which was open and out to the side. Blue lightning began to take shape, forming a spear in his hand as he grasped it.

"And that would mean... killing you won't be a problem," the man concluded, his eyes cold and calculating. He threw the spear straight at Issei.

Issei turned and tried to run. "If I'm gonna die in a dream, I'd rather be killed by a hot chick than a dude!" the spear went straight through Issei's back and out through his stomach.

"Not cool! Man, this blows...! Big time...! This is the worst pain I've ever felt!" Issei fell to his knee, then forward, landing with his left arm on the ground, hunched over.

"It didn't hurt near this bad when Yuma murdered me in my last dream," Issei tried to grab the blade, but his hand was severely burned by touching it.

Then suddenly, the spear disappeared. "Hurts, doesn't it...? Light is a deadly poison to your kind; it burns you from within... I thought I'd finished you off, but it seems you're quite the tough one."

"Don't worry though...I'll put you out of your misery shortly," the man said, resummoning the spear.

'I'm done for...Someone...Help me, please!' Just before the spear was about to make contact, it was struck by a blocked dark black and red demonic magic.

"What did you just do, you little shit...?! and what the hell is that?" the man yelled in rage

a calm but powerful voice grabbed the attention of both "Keep your hands off of him."

"That red hair. Did...Rias... come to save me." Issei managed to mutter before passing out.

Rias teleported them to Issei's location, which was the fountain, for the second time. As they arrived, they found Issei lying in a pool of blood for the second time, with a Fallen Angel standing behind him.

Rias quickly intervened, launching her own attack to stop the attack on Issei.

The Fallen Angel turned his head to look at the three that had appeared in the summoning circle. "That hair...You're from the house of Gremory."

"My name's Rias Gremory...And who are you...other than a fallen angel?" Rias responded standing in front of Akeno and Kiba.

"Well, well, who knew...? This town is currently under the control of the next head of the great Gremory Family. So he's a part of your household, I take it."

Rias was frustrated that he didn't answer her question directly, but she didn't let her emotions show. "If you bring any harm to him, you will get no mercy from me."

"I apologize for the misunderstanding," Dohnaseek said, his voice dripping with curiosity. "However, it would be...prudent for you to consider the consequences of your actions."

Rias brushed off his attempt at provocation. "I appreciate the warning," she said, her voice firm with determination. "But I will not hesitate to defend my servant and my household."

"No offense to your noble household," Dohnaseek said, "but you should bear in mind that the same thing could be said to you." He flapped his wings and took off into the night sky. "My name is Dohnaseek. I pray that you and I never again cross paths."

"That was a close call," Akeno said, bouncing over to Issei's unconscious body. "I can't believe he actually ran into a fallen angel!"

"If we don't do something, Issei will die," Kiba said flatly.

Rias looked down at Issei's body. "That won't happen. He'll live...I'll see to that myself." She walked past her companions, her eyes burning with determination.

Issei slowly opened his eyes, groggily taking in his surroundings. The alarm clock on his nightstand blaring "Wake up, bitch... Or I'll chop off your balls."

As he sat up, he rubbed his eyes with his hands. "Man, what a weird sense of deja vu..."

Issei threw off the blankets and sat up, looking around his room. He noticed that his clothes were missing and his heart skipped a beat.

"Whoa, where are my clothes?" he asked aloud.

He got out of bed, searching for his clothes, but instead found himself staring at Rias' nude form.

Stunned, he stumbled backward and fell to the floor. "No way...No way! This is awesome!"

Rias slowly woke up, sitting up and stretching with a soft moan. "Issei?"

"Whoa, I can see your breasts!" Issei yelped.

Rias chuckled and smiled at him. "Good morning."

Issei's eyes widened in shock. "Whoa, what are you doing in my bed...? Is this really happening? Cause this feels like it could be a porn, or some kind of a wet dream."

Rias leaned forward, her eyes sparkling with amusement. "No, this is real. And so is everything else you've experienced, as a matter of fact. My name is Rias Gremory... And I'm a devil."

Issei's eyes widened further. "A devil?"

Rias nodded. "Not only that, but I'm your Master, too...You're mine now...Nice to meet you, Issei Hyodo."
