A Flood of red demonic energy washes over the Frog Demon. The bilous creature doesn't utter a word or even a sound as every part of its body below its head is instantly erased. At that remains, it's the stone it stood on. The head slams down as Bell falls out of the creature's tongue.

Soon after, the gymnasium begins to dissolve, revealing that they weren't even in a gymnasium; they were all outside. The Demon's eyes bolted around to see its complete lack of body. It tried to speak, but nothing but groans came out.

Standing before the monster, two girls looked down at the head of the Demon.

"Seems like you don't exert enough power to finish it instantly. May I?"

"Go ahead."

A strike of lightning rains down on the Frog Demon, quickly frying the monster into a dried husk of dusty bones. It was dead within moments, something unexpected for this kind of monster.

Issei looked up as a hand reached down. It was Koneko, being her same old unemotional self.

"Hey. Are you ok? Can you stand?" Issei nods at this comment, and Koneko pulls her hand back. She leaves to check on her blonde compatriot, and Issei frowns.

"H-Hey… What's happening?" Issei groaned as he stood to his feet. He looked to see the blonde boy, bruised and beaten, but nothing too wrong. However, the same could not be said about Bell. The boy was, to put it simply, messed up. He had a deep wound in his stomach and lay flat on the floor, struggling even to stand. Besides him was Asia, who was trying her best to heal the injuries. Not wasting a step, Issei rushed over to check up on him.

"Bell!" Issei yells. The injuries weren't deep enough for an instantaneous death. Still, with a multitude of organs shredded and his spine barely holding itself together, death would be soon if nothing was done. "Asia, is he…"

The blonde girl is helping with her healing. But, for whatever reason, Twilight Healing wasn't healing as wholly as it usually does tonight. Skin and muscle were repaired, but organs were barely being recovered quickly enough, and his spine didn't even seem to heal.

"Issei… It's not looking good. I'm trying my best, but all it's doing is keeping him stable."

The Boosted Gear user decides he has to intervene. He doesn't have much stamina left, but he would use what he could to help save him. As he prepared to give her a boost in power, there was a sudden chill in the air. Both Devils felt a slight tingle in their backs; someone was behind them.

Spinning their heads around, they saw a cloaked figure walking towards them. It was slow and methodical and was meant to draw attention to itself. Issei quickly rises and readies himself for another fight. Still, the figure is already behind him bethe figure is already it, the figure is already behind him.

It wasn't looking at him, only resting a hand on his shoulder. It's breathing heavy, almost like light panting. That tingling feeling was amplified to a ridiculous level. Issei was nearly paralyzed in terror but stood firm enough not to collapse but not enough to even move. After such, the figure whispers, "Please Move," before letting go and walking up to Asia and Bell.

Asia looks up to the cloaked person, clearly not wanting to let anything wrong happen to the injured boy, but the figure simply repeats its order. "Please move". Asia still didn't move aside, but a hand lightly tugged at her shirt. She looked down to see Bell just choked out, "It's.. ok… let.. Her…" It took a moment, but the former Nun backed off, and the figure crouched beside Bell. They reach into their coat and grab a blood bag. It tears the top open and pours the crimson liquid down the boy's mouth.

"Wait–" Asia was concerned with whatever the person was doing, but they held out their hands, indicating her to wait. After a few gulps, Bell miraculously rises back up, with the hole in his chest slowly healing.

"Haha, thanks, sis'" Bell smiles before the figure reveals their identity—Mors, exhausted from all the running she had to do.

"You're… You're… Whew… Welcome… Ay, I need to sit down," she panted before collapsing. The two bystanders looked shocked at what scared them, which was just a girl. Issei moves over to Bell, glad he was alive but still worried that… well, he had a big hole in his stomach.

"How are you alive? And what's with the blood bag?" He spat at the two questions in quick succession.

"Oh, I never told you? My bad." Bell chuckles at the realization of how a crucial fact could be ignored. "Well, to put it simply–"

"Well, who do we have here?" Everyone spun around to see four people: Kiba, Koneko, Akeno, and Rias. "Bell… with a hole in his chest, are you ok?" Rias briefly loses her professionalism. With a shrug, Bell simply gives a thumbs up and turns her attention to Mors, "And an unwanted Hunter."

Mors tries to give a light smile as she replies, "Hi, Rias. How's your day been?"

"It was good until now."

"Lemme guess, Fried Frog probably isn't a smell you wanna walk into, eh? I know the feeling, hehe." Mors goes on with an awkward laugh for a bit, but when everyone looks at her like she's a crazy person, she just clears her throat in embarrassment. "So, what seems to be the problem here?"

"Well, let's see. A Demon showed up on Kuoh Academy grounds. It managed to create some pocket dimension, almost killed two members of my peerage, and then you showed up. The good news is that I took care of one of those problems. What to do about the second?" Rias starts thinking of ways to resolve this issue before Akeno chimes in.

"How about we punish her and send off with that reminder?" Akeno says in her cheerful tone.

"That's great and all, but like," Mors says, "I gotta take my brother home. Dad's probably worried sick about us, and he's making Meatloaf tonight. Come on, let's go." She rushes to touch her brother's shoulder, only to feel a stinging sensation in her hands. She yelps in surprise and looks at her hand… before immediately having a big dumb grin.

Rias looks surprised at this and starts to wonder what she's planning. "Hey, we aren't done here."

Mors looks back around and slightly grimaces. She spins around and looks with a smile. "Hey, this is my brother. He's (hopefully) not in your peerage, and I haven't done anything but come and pick up what is mine. It's nothing to fight over, right?" She gestures with her hands, and Rias looks slightly exasperated before turning around.

"Issei, Asia. Let's go. We're done here." The two start to walk away, looking back to see Bell waving at them. They smile back before moving to their King's side as her peerage walks. "Take that rock with you as well."

Mors simply smirked and moved to the stone. She placed her hand on it and saw it shrink until it was the size of a normal one. She picks it up before turning back to Bell, returning with a dumb smirk on her face.

Bell looks surprised when she comes to pick him up, securing him on her back. She asks him if he's okay, and he nods. And within moments, she's gone in a flash.

Back at the ORC Club House…

Rias sits on a chair while Akeno stands beside her. She's clearly thinking about something, and Akeno notices as she bends over and asks, "President… Why did you let her go? Mors is the biggest concern within the area?"

Rias looks back, pondering for a minute why she did that. Since that day, Mors has been on the back of the ORC president's mind.

"There wasn't an issue here, so we didn't need to press ourselves into a fight. Besides, something is clearly going on with Bell. We better keep a close look at him from now…"
