Attack

Rating Game Part 1.

As they waited for Grayfia to announce the start of the game. Rias took the opportunity to unleash what remained of Issei's sealed power's that his outburst at church didn't unleash.

"Ise, come here and sit in front of me," Rias told her Pawn in a calm voice that made him confused.

"Sure but are you sure that we could sit down and chat while the game is about to start?" He questioned as he did what he was told.

"Don't worry, Rating games were created so that it would prepare Devils on how to handle every type of situation. From blitzkrieg to a more objective type, like infiltration or capturing and holding specific strategic point's that were represented by flags." Informed him Akeno as she just finished brewing tea.

"That is correct and you don't need to be worried Ise I'm just going to unlock the power that was sealed when I revived you," Rias spoke as Ise did what he was told.

As Rias put her hand on his head he started gloving crimson and after a moment or two, he could feel the power in him rising as he looked at her with wide eyes.

"W-what is this? What is this power I feel?" He asked in shock at the new power that was flowing throw his veins and couldn't help but feels awestruck.

"That power, my dear cute Ise is the power I had to lock up when you were revived. Your power is dangerous and leaving it runinig wild would harm you even more. At the church you almost unleashed all of your power, and all of us would be dead if you did, however, you were able to regain control over yourself before that could happen." She explained as Issei stood up and started to power up a bit to feel his new powers that were dormant till now. He felt like he could fight anyone and still be at the top. But Ddraig decided that it was time for him to get his head back to reality.

[Partner as much as I also enjoy your added strength, you still need a way how to defeat a Phoenix and that's not that easy even with your power.]Ddraig stated as he too felt the increase in power of his host that surprised him a little that if he was a little more powerful than maybe he would get a Balance Breaker state earlier than most of his host would.

"Yeah, you are right Ddraig I need to focus now." He answered.

At that moment all members of the Gremory and Phenex household heard Grayfia's announcement.

-Hello everyone. I am Grayfia, a maid from the House of Gremory and today I will be the arbiter of the Rating match between the House of Gremory and the House of Phoenix.

In the name of my Master, Sirzechs Lucifer, I will be keeping my eye on this match. By using both Rias and Raiser opinion, we created this battlefield which is a replica of the school, Kuou academy, which Rias attends to in the human world.

The location where both teams were transported will be their "base". Rias "base" would be the Occult Research Cub's club room located in the old school building. Raiser "base" would be the Student Council's room located in the new building. For the [Pawns] to use "promotion", please head to the enemy's base to do it. You have 5 minutes to strategies. After 5 minutes the game will begin. Your time to strategies begins now.-

"So I need to get to Fried Chickens Base to promote. That would be difficult." Issei said after hearing what Grayfia said.

"That's why my adorable little Ise we are going to make a plan to help us get a victory here," Rias said to her Pawn.

"Kiba can you please bring me a map of the school?" She requested her blond Knight as he nodded and left to look for it.

It only took a few seconds before the blonde boy returned with a map with him that he spread in front of Rias.

"Here it is President. President, if you would, I can make traps in the forest near our base so that when Riser's Pawns make their way through there we can ambush them and put them out of commission." He said as he presented the map of school to Rias and showed her where he was planning to set up his traps for the unwanted guests that would be making their way here.

"Yes, that look's like a perfect place to set them Kiba you go do that, while Akeno will create a mist so that they don't spot the traps." She agreed to his plan as it looked perfect for reducing the manpower gape between them.

"Yes, President." Was the reply from both the blonde knight and priestess of thunder.

"Meanwhile Koneko, I want Issei and you to go to the Gym and hold of Riser's pieces that will be there until Akeno finish making her mist and when she give's you the signal retreat so that she can blow it up. And hopefully, take some of the enemies with it. After that, you will regroup near the track field whit Kiba and push forward toward's Riser's base." Rias told her group.

"And what do you want me to do princess?" Raynare questioned as she noticed that she wasn't mentioned in the plan.

"I need you to stay here and support me if some of the enemies piece brake throw here. Since you have a healing gear it would be a suicide to send you to the front with others, on that note, if some of you are too injured retreat so that Raynare can heal you. Even if one of you are to be put out of the game it could be catastrophic for us." She explained her whole plan to the group as she knows that she would need all of them to beat Riser.

"Yes, President." Came the reply from her group as they went to finish their preparations for the upcoming battle.

"Issei, Raynare here," Akeno said as she gave the duo two small transceivers.

"What are they for?" Issei asked as he looked over the small transceiver that he was given.

"That's for communicating with us during a fight. Everyone has one and don't worry each High-Class Devil get's his set of transceivers so that it can't listen in during the game. So when I finish with the mist I will tell you when to evacuate so you don't get also blown up hehe." Akeno snickered as her Sadistic side begun to creep up making both Raynare and Issei back away from her as they shivered in fear.

"Y-yeah I will keep that in mind. Thanks, Akeno." He said as he composed himself to a task ahead of him.

-Your 5 minutes to strategies is up. The Rating Game between the House of Gremory and The House of Phoniex begins now.- Grayfia announces as the school bell rings to signalized the start of the battle.

RING RING RING RING

"All right my adorable servants go out there and make me proud."

"Yes!" They all shouted as they left the ORC building to face off against whatever Riser had to offer.

Akeno immediately took to the sky's and started creating a mist to cover Kiba as he started putting traps in the wood's just West of the clubroom to ambush and take out any opposition that may come.

Issei and Koneko made their way towards the Gym that was a strategic position from where both sides could come into direct contact with one another. In essence who controlled the Gym controlled the field. So instead of controlling it and in fear of losing her pieces, Rias decided to after getting the opening skirmish with Risers pieces to evacuate her's and let her Queen blow up those that were left inside.

"Koneko what do you think? Do we have a chance against someone as Riser? Issei questioned as they were closing in on the Gym with no opposition.

"Yes, we have. Issei, watch out there are three enemies that I can sense in the Gym." Koneko answered in her emotionless tone that made Issei wonder does she had any emotions what so ever.

"Okay, thanks for the tip. Now how do we go about this?" Issei mussed as he saw Koneko going to the back door. He decided that it was time to use his Sacred Gear as it immediately started to power him up

"Booster Gear." He quietly said as the gear appears on his left arm.

[BOOST] Ddraig voice was heard as he announced the power up

"Well let's start this party, don't you think Koneko?" Issei asked her as she just nodded and entered the Gym.

"Well look what the trash brought." Said a voice that Issei thought it belongs to a kid.

"Come on you douchebags, we don't have time to play hide and seek with you." Spoke another voice this time it was a lot matured then the last.

"Oi oi, stop with the insult's we know that you are all arrogant but sheesh this is too much," Issei declared as Koneko and he made them self-know.

"So what do we have here a midget and a wannabe Red Dragon Emperor?" Said again the mature voice that Issei now saw came from the beautiful well-endowed young woman of Chinese descent with shoulder-length black hair and blue-green outfit consisted of a navy blue qipao with gold accents, a white sash around her stomach, and black, low-heeled shoes. Her outfit gave Issei an almost perfect view of her breast and legs that were on full display much to his pleasure. Beside her, there were three more girls that in Issei opinion look cute.

"Midget?" Koneko said in a low tone as her eyebrow twitched from that insult about her size.

"Well seeing that you girls know who we are mind introducing yourselves to us?" Issei politely questioned as he would love to know those beautiful girls.

"My name is Xuelan, The Rook of Lord Riser." The Chinese beauty answered while getting in battle position.

"My name is Mira." The blue haired girl told. Making Issei looked at her and he had to question himself as for how in the hell did she make her hair have four ponytails of which two also wore red kimono with a white shirt.

"Our names are Ile and Nel." The twins shouted cheerfully. The look alike, both girls hade turquoise hair with a ribbon on opposing sides of their head most like so they could distinguish between the wore PE clothes and in their hands the had a chainsaw that made Issei step a back little at seeing that.

"Pleasure to meet you four. Koneko how are we going to go about this?" Issei spoke as he looks at Koneko who had an emotionless look in her eyes.

"I will take the Rook you take the Pawns Issei." She answered as she took a battle stance before lunching at the Rock counterpart.

"Slice, Slice, Slice!" Issei heard as he looked towards the duo voices only to see the twins running at him with their chainsaw ready to chop him to pieces.

"Fuckkkk..." He screams as he started running away from them only for a blue hair teen to stand in his way with her staff to block his way.

As he saw Mira, she tried to hit him with her staff while the twins swung their chainsaw at him, Issei was forced to jump high into the air over Mira to escape from the massacre that would be if he was left standing.

"Wow..." Was all that Mira said as her eyes followed Issei soar high above her before landing behind her.

"Wow, I didn't know that I can do that," Issei said in shock as he did something that till recently was only in his imagination.

"Slice, Slice, Slice!" He heard as he looked towards the twin sisters that were again charging at him with their chainsaws ready to chop him into pieces.

"Aww, man can I get a break?" Issei asked himself as he started to dodge the twin and Mira who join in.

[Boost] Ddraig voice was heard as Issei felt a power surge in his body.

'That's it if I can keep them at bay for a few more boost than I can take them out in one shot.' Thought Issei as he continued to dodge the attacks that were to close for comfort.

Meanwhile, in the other part of the gym, Koneko was facing Xuelana that was said to have the power of the Queen.

"Well, what do you say we start this fight midget," Xuelana said mockingly as Koneko's eyebrows started twitching from the insults the Rook continued to send her way.

"You will pay for that," Koneko declared in a low emotionless tone as she charged at the Phenex Rook who entered the defensive stance.

Koneko threw a punch at Xuelana who easily dodge it with little movement. As she continues to dodge her attacks Xuelana spotted a good opening and with her fist coated in fire attacked sending an uppercut to Koneko who manage to dodge it bearly but in the process, her school uniform was half destroyed.

"You are not that bad, little girl," Xuelana said as she started to bombard Koneko whit volley after volley of punches and kicks that she had a hard time dodging as a few of those kicks and punches hit their target making a young girl grunt in pain as she felt the full power of those attacks.

"You aren't bad yourself." Was the reply from Koneko as she backflips to avoid another punch to the stomach.

At that moment both girls felt some distortion in the air as they both turn to look at their Pawns who were fighting on the other side of the gym. Only to see Issei generating a small ball of concentrated red energy in front of his armored fist. Konenko knowing what would happen quickly move to the side as Issei lunch his special attack at the trio who he was fighting.

DRAGON SHOT!

Ddraig and Issei shouted in a union as the small ball of energy quickly transformed into a massive energy beam that headed toward's the girls who were not quick enough to dodge it and were caught in the blast.

Taking the advantage that her opponent was in shock at the sheer raw power the Pawn had unleashed Koneko grab Issei and started dragging him out of the gym as the three girls bearly survive that attack started getting up and Xuelana out of her shock.

"Hey, the battle isn't over. You cowards come back so we can destroy you in the name of Lord Riser." Mira yelled after the retreating members of the Gremory household.

"Akeno do it now." It was all that small white hair girls said as Issei and her left the gym only a half a second before a massive thunderbolt hit the gym destroying it in an instant taking whit it four members of the Risers peerage.

-Lord Risers 1 Rock and 3 Pawns retired.- Grayfia stated.

"Good work Akeno." Issei praised her as she flew above them with her devil wings out.

"Ufufufuf...Thank you, Issei, that means a lot coming from you." Akeno said as she licked her finger while having a faint blush on her face at the praise.

-Lord Risers 3 Pawns retired.- Grayfia announced again.

"Sweet, that means Kiba took care of things." Issei started to cheer at the good start of the battle. With Koneko giving a small smile as well.

Just as they thought that they were in a clear, Koneko sense an incoming attack and pushed Issei out of the way as she took the full force of it.

As the explosion rips through the area Issei and Akeno were left stunned at what happened.

"Koneko, are you all right?" Issei yelled as he quickly made his way to her just as blue light surrounds her.

"Yeah, Issei. I wish I could do more but this is where it end's for me." Koneko softly said with tears in her eyes as she vanished.

-Lady Rias 1 Rock retired.- Grayfia announced in her neutral tone

"Queen takes a Rook. Now it's time for Queen to take the Pawn." Suddenly Yubelluna appeared in all her glory with her devil wings spread wide open.

"Bomb Queen, Issei, get out of here and go regroup with Kiba, I will fight her." Akeno firmly told him as she was fully intending to duke it out with Yubelluna.

"But Akeno, yo.." Issei started to argue only for Akeno to shot some of her lightning at him.

"Issei, I said I will fight her. Now get out of here before she takes you also." Akeno said, she knew that if Issei were to fall all was lost.

"Fine, you win. Kick her ass Akeno." With a heavy sigh, Issei turned around and started sprinting toward track field.

Seeing that her target was running away Yubelluna started to charge up her attack only to abanded it for an evasive maneuver as Akeno shoot her lightning at her.

"Now, now. You leave Issei out of this. I'm your opponent Bomb Queen." Akeno sweetly said as her face and eyes showed that she was now in her S mode.

"Tsk, fine Thunder priestess. And don't call me that." Yubelluna said as she took her position waiting for her opponent to attack her.

'Good luck Issei, Kiba.' Akeno said to herself before unleashing all her might on the Riser Queen.

While the battle for the gym was underway Kiba was hiding in the forest near the ORC building as Akeno was casting her Ilussion and her own traps.

"Akeno how much longer?" Kiba asked as he detected something coming his way.

"I just finished with traps Kiba, you are all set to that after you finish here regroup with Issei and Koneko at the track field and move toward Riser's base," Akeno informed him as she took flight towards the gym to unleash hell.

"Understood, Vice President," Kiba said as he took cover behind a tree to see what would happen.

After a few minutes, he heard voices that he knew was the enemy.

Walking through the forest were Risers three pawns. Two were dressed in a manner similar to Grayfia and the remaining one was dressed like an Arabian belly dancer.

"That Gremory girl really thinks that she can beat Lord Riser?" Spoke the busty brown hair maid as she and her companions made their way unknowingly towards Kiba.

"Yeah, that virgin heiress thinks that she has what it takes to take our Lord out." Answered silver head belly dancer.

As they were walking they triggered a trap that was set to activate just as they walk to a small clearing in the woods.

"Watch out." Yelled the silver-hair girl as she noticed a sudden flash of red light that formed a Gremory circle. From it, a torrent of magical arrows shoots at the trio as they in a nick of time managed to dodge it.

"That was a clever trap, too bad that it was wasted." Finally, the final member of the raiding party said. She was also dressed like her brown hair friend but she had dirty blond hair that was pulling towards brown.

As her words left her mouth, Kiba decided to show himself to the girls.

"Hello." He said with a wave of his hand as he started approaching them.

"Well, what do we have here a blond knight. What are you doing here knight?" Arrogantly said the belly dancer as she and her two friends took their battle positions.

"My name is Kiba Yuuto. Knight of the Lady Rias. And who are you three if it isn't a secret?" Kiba introduces himself with a polite bow as he was a gentleman after all.

"Well, aren't you a polity Knight. Since you are cute I will tell you." The dirty blonde told him in a sweet tone as she pointed at her two friends. " The girl that looks like a French Maid is Burent and the girls that look like an Arabic Belly Dancer is Shuriya, my name is Marion. We are the Pawn's of Lord Riser." The girl now known as Marion told him as he nodded his head drawing a sword.

"So, shall we start my ladies?" Kiba politely asked as he took his position. Prepared for any sneak attack that the trio may lunch.

And his preparation proved dividend as Burent started to shower him with magical attacks. Using his Knight speed he quickly dodged the attacks and started to charge at her only to quickly evade again as Shuriya came to close-quarter to engage. Using his evading movement Marion quickly grabbed Kiba from behind and put him in a headlock.

"What are you going to do know Knight of Gremory?" Marion questioned seeing that he had no chance of winning. At that moment they heard something that surprised them.

-Lord Risers 1 Rock and 3 Pawns retired.- Grayfia stated.

"That's easy. And I apologize in advance." He said as a large Gremory circular appeared under all of them.

SWORD BIRTH

Kiba shouted as half a dozen swords erupted from the ground piercing the three Pawn making them vanish into thin air.

-Lord Risers 3 Pawns retired.- Grayfia announced again.

"Well, looks like my work here is done. Know to regroup with Koneko and Issei." Kiba said to himself as he started jogging towards their rendezvous point.

His jogging turn into a sprint as moments later he heard a disturbing announcement from Grayfia.

-Lady Rias 1 Rook retired.- Grayfia announced in her neutral tone.

'That's not good, that leaves us with Akeno, Issei and me. And I have a feeling that Akeno is fighting Riser's Queen. So Issei is vulnerable. I better hurry.' He thought as he picked up even more speed to come to his ally's help.

Back in the ORC clubroom Rias and Raynare were cheering at the news of Issei, Koneko and Kiba defeating their opponent's but that was short lived as Grayfia announced Koneko's defeat probably to Riser's Queen.

"Well princess, what are we going to do now?" Raynare questioned since both knew that Riser had plenty more manpower to throw around while they have three members to combat them with both Rias and her still in the clubroom.

"I think it's time for the King to move out. Don't you think Raynare?" Rias answer with her own question. Raynare just nodded and Rias and she started heading towards Riser through the forest that Kiba made clear for them.

Rias knew that confronting Riser with only her Bishop was dangerous but she wanted so badly to finish this fight and her overconfidence in her power made her make a move that would probably be very costly to them.

"Well princess let's finish that fried chicken and go home, I need my beauty sleep you know." Raynare joked to relive her self from the tension that was building in her as she saw how powerful Riser was.

"Yes let's finish this once and for all. And all of us go home." Rias answered her in a voice full of confidence as she mentally geared her self up.

'Just you wait Riser. I'm coming and I will blow you away.' Was all that Rias thought as she and her Bishop quickly made ground toward's his base. Ready to finish what she started.
