[LEMON WARNING!]


Rias held the Sword in her hands. Her grip was tight, refusing to let go of the sheath as she held it between her large breasts. She lay alone in her bedroom, wishing her naked body was pressing against Kenny's as he held her in his arms.

Ever since Kenny fainted due to losing control of his Juggernaut transformation and went on a berserker rampage, Rias had become worried for her samurai once again. And once again, she was powerless to save or even help him. All the gorgeous redhead was told she could do was to let him rest and recuperate for the moment.

But for Rias, each day felt like an eternity. She hated having to wait and wished for it all to end. Looking at the katana, Rias felt anger towards it and, for a moment, she wanted to break it. Throwing it away and never letting Kenny find it. It was the sword that brought him all the suffering, pain, and torment he's gone through.

However, the same could be said about the Boosted Gear. The actual item that was causing him so much pain.

Yet, both of these things were a part of Kenny's identity. They are what makes him the man she loves with all her heart and soul. The man she wanted to marry so badly, the man whose children Rias wanted to bare and spend the rest of her natural life with.

That's why she held the Sword close to her. The weapon was a part of Kenny. So, until Rias had her love in her arms again, it'll do for now.


As for Kenny himself, the young man was lying in bed in one of the bedrooms in the Gremory Mansion. In an unconscious state for three days straight, maids, doctors, and the Satans did everything they could to stabilize him. While in this state, few people were allowed visitation, as they didn't know what they were dealing with.

On the other hand, Azazel was allowed to visit the samurai as much as he could. Given his vast knowledge of Sacred Gears, he would know what was happening with the samurai.

"Mind if I ask you a couple of questions?" He asked. Looking at Kenny's messed-up arm. "I'm not talking about Kenny. I know you can hear me, Welsh Dragon."

The gem on the gauntlet flashed brightly.


"Still nothing on Kenny? That's…unfortunate." Sirzech's hologram said to Azazel.

The next day, the ORC met with Sirzech and Grayfia. When the headmaid heard of what had occurred to the descendant of her first beloved, she responded immediately and gave Kenny the room to rest and recover. Everyone was on edge, having heard and seen what had occurred after the appearance of the Great Red in the Dimensional Gap and Ophis.

"That's right, and we've still been unable to bring him out of his coma," said Azazel, making the others look at him. "The kid's Devil power is replenishing, and his body's healing alright. But it would seem that the extent of his injuries goes deeper inside, though."

"Deeper inside?" Sirzechs asked.

"He's never had such an intense transformation before. It would seem, for now, our only option is to wait it out." Kiba said, however, even though he didn't like it. With the Gremory Peerage's only Pawn and their more powerful member down, it was undetermined precisely when Kenny would recover. Or if he'll ever.

Hearing how badly Kenny's recovery was going, Asia looked down in shame. "It's my fault."

However, Xenovia placed her hand on her friend's shoulder. "No one is blaming you, Asia. None of this is our fault," she said, trying to comfort her.

"She's right, Asia," Gasper said.

"This is the Army of Darkness's doing, no one else," Karen said, with Koneko nodding.

However, it was then that Azazel started to get an idea. "That reminds me. Asia, I've got a question," he said, getting the tearful girl's attention. "You've yet to us what you've learned in training, right?"


Soon, the group found themselves back in the bedroom Kenny was being kept in. It was a harrowing sight to see for everyone, especially for the girls that loved the young man. He just laid still, seemingly peaceful in his sleep, but his arm was still corrupted and mutated. Just seeing it made them all anxious.

And now, Asia was being called upon to save her beloved.

She and the others gathered around the bed as Azazel explained what was happening to the kids. "Because of his incomplete transformation, it seems apparent that the dragon inside of Kenny is malfunctioning. The fact that his arm is still in dragon form only serves to prove the point."

"If that's the problem, then how do we start fixing it?" Rias asked, desperate to save her beloved.

"Asia's Sacred Gear might be the solution to our problems."

"You're saying 'might,' which means that Asia would be in danger, right?" Rias questioned the governor.

"I honestly couldn't tell you," Azazel said, sighing and running his hand through his hair.

Xenovia's eyes widened. "No way…"

"It's a possibility," said the Fallen Angel. "However, there's still a possibility that she's come out of it unshaved."

Asia was staring at Kenny's face as this was being told to her. The risks for her were high. However, she didn't need a minute to think about what she would do.

"I'll do it." She said. "I at least have to try."

Looking at the former nun with a worried expression, Rias placed a hand on Asia's shoulder. "Are you sure, Asia?"

"Kenny promised me that he'd always look out for me, and he kept his word by beating Diodora. Now it's my turn to lot out for him, and there's no way I will give up! I own him for than that," Asia declared passionately. Rias looked into the girl's eyes and saw through her sad expression determination. The determination to save the man she loved and save him from the pain that was infecting his body.

Satisfied with Asia's answer, Rias stood up from the bed with the Sword in hand. "I have full faith in you," she said, turning and walking towards the door. Akeno followed after her as her loyal Queen. Then the others walked behind their crimson-haired King until Asia and Azazel were the only ones left in the room.

"Your training up to this point has been focused on healing from a distance. This time distance doesn't matter. It's now about depth." The Governor General explained to her.

Asia placed her hands on her chest. Her Sacred Gear ring appeared in a flash of bright green light. "What do you mean?"

"Kenny needs your help healing the wound that's deep within his heart. We'll give you all the time you need. Tomorrow, we'll check up on you."

With that said, Azazel left the room and shut the door behind him. Leaving Asia alone.


In the living room, everyone waited for Asia. Anxious and nervous about whether she'll be able to bring Kenny back.

"And you're sure this will work?" Karen asked her boss. "Is leaving Asia alone in that room really what's best?"

"If she focused all of her power, we'd have no way of determining how powerful the force of it will be," Azazel explained to his subordinate. He looked to Rias, who sat still, looking down at the ground with the sword in her lap. "And as long as that's the case, it's not safe to be in the same area."

"You're not going to let her go through with it, are you?" Akeno asked her best friend.

For a moment, Rias didn't answer the shrine maiden. However, she eventually spoke the truth. "I'd be lying if I said this didn't scare me. I'm losing the man I love so much, and now I'm asking the person that I see as a little sister to save him, even though it could cost her her life. But, I have to place my faith in Asia.


Asia didn't waste time. If she wanted to save and wake up Kenny, she would have to use all of her training in a way she would never have imagined. Climbing on the bed and sitting on her knees beside the samurai, she grabbed his dragon arm and placed it on her lap.

The rings on her middle fingers began to glow brightly. Then her entire body was surrounded by a green aura as she focused on her power. That same aura then spread to Kenny's body as she picked up his dragon arm and held it to her cheek.

"My beloved Kenny. I treasure you above anyone else. You've always been there for me whenever I'm feeling down," Asia said as she remembered all the times the samurai made her smile. Even in her darkest times, Kenny managed to make her smile. Every time he saved her, the samurai risked his life for her. "You put yourself in harm's way to protect me from danger. I'm so grateful for you, Kenny. And I thank God for this opportunity. I'm thankful to pay you back for all you've done."

The fabric around the bed started to be ripped apart, and the frame's ceiling over her and Kenny had a hole blow into it.

"So, please, Kenny. Come back to me!"

In one massive flash of light, Kenny's arm returned to normal.


When Kenny woke up, he was confused.

At first, the samurai had to adjust his eyes to overcome the blurriness. When his sight cleared, Kenny saw that the roof of the bed he was in was torn apart. Sitting up, Kenny looked around before seeing Asia sleeping on the bed next to him. "Asia?" He asked softly, gently shaking her.

Upon hearing his voice, Asia immediately woke up and gasped upon seeing him. "Is this a dream? You're awake again!" She cried, quickly sitting up.

"Yeah, I'm up," Kenny said with a smile. However, he paused when he saw her emerald green eyes starting to tear up.

"Kenny, I'm so sorry." She whimpered before throwing herself into his arms and clinging to him. Sobbing in his shoulder as Kenny looked at her in confusion.

"Hey, it's okay," Kenny said, rubbing her back. However, Asia refused to stop crying or let him go.

"You're alright! Thank goodness!" She sobbed. "I was so worried."


Asia explained his condition as the two sat together on the bed. To say the least, Kenny was surprised that he was out cold for so long. "So you were the one that brought me out of the coma?" He asked, looking at the blonde girl in amazement. Asia nodded, and Kenny sighed with a smile. "Wow. I owe you thanks."

"I couldn't bare the thought of losing you, Kenny. Not having you in my life is unbearable," Asia said, looking away from him and down at the ground with a bright blush on her cheeks.

"Nor could I," Kenny admitted. He then yawned.

"Are you tired?" Asia asked, looking at him confused.

"I…I guess I am," Kenny said, rubbing his eyes.

Asia stood up and stood in front of him. She placed her hands on his shoulders and said to the samurai, "Why don't we rest here for tonight?"

"We? Right, you used up a lot of energy. Alright…" Kenny was cut off when Asia surprised him by climbing up on his lap and sitting on him.

And then she kissed him.

Kenny's eyes widened as he felt Asia's soft lips overlapping his own. However, feeling how soft they were, he slowly closed his eyes and accepted the kiss. Wrapping his arms around her, Kenny deepened the kiss. Slowly, Asia pulled away from his lips and stared at the samurai with her big green eyes. "I love you, Kenny. More than life itself. I've never been so sure of anything before."

Kenny stared at Asia for a moment, blinking and blushing. However, he then smiled and placed his forehead on hers. "I love you too, Asia," he said softly to the young girl.

[Lemon]

The two of them kissed again, with Asia moaning into his mouth as Kenny's strong arms held her close to his chest. Making her cheek glow from the pink hue that appeared. This feeling of her first kiss stirred something inside of her. The blonde girl wrapped her arms around his neck, hands running through his black hair while she deepened the kiss.

When they pulled away again, panting for air, Kenny looked at her. "Asia…"

"Kenny…I…um…" Asia struggled to find the right words. "I was thinking. I'm the only one in the harem that you haven't had sex—made love to…so…." she then surprised Kenny by making her clothes disappear. It was a magic trick she had learned from Rias for this exact moment. "Please…make me a woman."

The lust inside Kenny's being ignited as he stared at her. Asia was completely naked as she sat on his lap. The samurai had seen her bare many times in the past, yet this was the first time he's seen her as a woman. Her golden hair cascaded down her bare back. Her body was cute and petite, just like Sona's. However, her breasts and hips were slightly larger than the bespectacled woman.

One of Kenny's hands ran down Asia's waist as the other cupped her ass, causing another shudder to run up her spine. She allowed Kenny to feel her for a second before she sat up. Letting her emotions run rampant, Asia's fingers tugged at his white shirt, yanking it off his shoulders before pulling his red t-shirt over his head. The blushing on her face intensified when she saw how fit and toned Kenny was.

She cupped Kenny's cheeks as she sat down on his lap again. Shivering as she felt her pussy's lips rest on his raging boner. "I want you," she said.

This time it was Kenny that started the kiss. The pair moaned into each other's lips as Asia's hands ran through his hair and Kenny's hands ran up her back. Her chest pressed against the samurai's, her breasts heating up as they rubbed against him.

"Mmmh!" Asia moaned in his mouth when she gained more confidence in the kiss. Their tongues met, and they licked each other gently. The feeling of Kenny's hard bulge against her moist womanhood made her rub against it.

Kenny slipped his hands down to her ass, squeezing her cheeks. Then he picked her up and moved onto the bed, being as gentle with her as he could be. If it were Rias, Akeno, Sona, or any of the maids, Kenny would have been pressing them down and going to town on them. Roughly fucking them with all the lust and love he had for them. However, this was Asia. She wasn't like the other girls. So, Kenny allowed her to do as she wished with him.

Breaking the kiss, Asia gently pushed Kenny down on his back. His head rested on the pillows as her small hands grabbed his pants and underwear and pulled them down in one go. Freeing his massive manhood.

The former nun gulped at the sight of the cock. She's heard all the stories. How big and thick Kenny's womb-breaker was. But to see it throbbing in front of her, Asia was afraid it wouldn't fit inside her.

Kicking off his pants, Kenny sat up and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Y-Yes! I'm okay. I just…it's just bigger than I expected," Asia admitted, blushing brightly.

Smiling lovingly at her, Kenny embraced Asia again. The nake lovers embraced each other and made out. They could not take their hands off each other as they kissed each other hungrily. However, the blonde girl gasped when in one sudden moment, Kenny turned them around and laid her down. Asia then reached up to him, but Kenny took her hands and laid them against the mattress.

Lowing himself down, Kenny nudged Asia's head to the side and started kissing her neck. Licking it with his hot tongue and giving her a hanky.

Small moans left her lips as Asia's breaths became shakier as Kenny went lower and lower down her body, kissing along her skin before he reached her sweaty breasts. They were on full display and were all his. When Kenny's hands cupped her ample tits, the blonde girl rolled her head back and moaned. Then he gave them a good lavishing with his tongue.

She had healed Kenny. So it was only fair he did something for her in return. Even when he moved over to her neglected breast, Kenny treated her with gentleness. As if the blonde girl was a fragile flower. Asia arched her back when she felt Kenny's hot tongue lap her nipples. Every cute sound Asia made was music to Kenny's ears and spurred him to continue.

The blonde girl was somewhat prepared for Kenny to hold her body down. To use and abuse it as much as he lustful desires wanted. But she didn't expect Kenny to act for her pleasure first. She was there to heal him. However, Asia didn't object as he sucked on her sensitive nipples. Instead, she moaned as Kenny kissed down her stomach and reached her moist pussy.

Wanting to drink from her womanhood, Kenny lifted her legs up over his shoulders and leaned forward between her legs. Seeing him about to give her oral, Asia quickly held a finger to her lips to bite on to keep the embarrassing noises she would undoubtedly make quiet.

Kenny didn't allow that. He wanted her to let out all of her moans. No matter what sound she made. He reached a hand up and pulled her arm away. Removing her hand from over her mouth. "I want to hear you moan and scream, Asia."

"Ok…" Asia nodded. She gasped, and her whole body shook when Kenny's fingers touched her sensitive spot and spread out her tunnel's lips. Then, with thirst, he leaned forward between her legs and dug in. "OOOOOOOOOHHHH GOD!"

Asia's moans instantly got louder as Kenny licked her wet folds, much to her embarrassment. However, there was no doubt that she was enjoying it. The way Kenny's tongue moved over her pussy, stimulating her folds the way he was licking. It felt terrific, and she stated that fact. "Kenny! It feels so good! Oh my!"

Kenny pulled away and looked at her. "And you taste wonderful, Asia," he said, continuing his eat her cunt out. Licking her juices as they came out.

"B-But I'm here…to help you!" She said with a slight whine before feeling Kenny stop. Looking down, she watched as the samurai leaned over her.

"I want to be as gentle with you as possible. No doubt things will get rough, so I want you to enjoy it as much as you can," Kenny said before meeting Asia in a kiss as he reached a hand down between her legs to stimulate her pussy by pushing a finger into her.

Her lover's lips muffled Asia's lewd moans, and Kenny could feel the heat radiating from her blushing cheeks. Pulling away from the kiss with a trail of saliva connecting their mouths, Kenny looked down at Asia. The usually innocent girl that was always so pure was moaning and trembling with pleasure as Kenny played with her body. Just from her moans and screams alone, the teenager knew she was enjoying it. So Kenny did his part and ensured he bought the young girl pleasure she had never felt before.

Kenny worked his hand between her legs as he pumped his fingers faster. Asia moaned lewdly as Kenny dug two fingers into her tight cunt and rubbed his thumb over the former nun's clit.

"Kenny! Yes! I like this! I really like this!" Asia moaned out loud as she arched her back. She threw her arms around her lover's shoulders and pulled him into another make-out session. Asia moaned wildly in his mouth as she kept him close. Not wanting Kenny to pull away from her. She wanted him so badly. Sadly, he did break away, much to her disappointment.

However, Kenny didn't stop his fingers from working her pussy. He then leaned down to take one of Asia's nipples into his mouth, sucking on the bud as she blushed even more and screamed.

"Ooooh! Kenny!" She moaned loudly. It was amazing! He was stimulating her petite body in all of her sensitive places. Making her lean her head back with her mouth hanging open. The sounds she made embarrassed her even more, yet the blonde didn't try and hide them. If Kenny loved hearing her moan, she would moan as loud as he wanted. Even if it made her feel slutty. "Yes! Please! Don't stop! It's sooooooo good! Oh God, yes!"

However, all things must come to an end, and Asia felt the heat growing between her legs as Kenny fingered her.

"Kenny, something's happening! I flew like I'll…explode!" She moaned loudly. Hearing this only provoked Kenny to pump his finger faster. "Yes…Kenny, yes! Keep going! I'm…I'm…AAAAAAAHH!"

Soon enough, Asia screamed to the high heavens as her juices came gushing out of her pussy. Her back arched in Kenny's arm as she coated his embedded digits while the samurai sucked on her nipple. Her mind went completely blank for a moment as her vision went unfocused and dazed. Afterward, she came back down from Cloud 9 and panted heavily as Kenny pulled away from her breasts.

"Kenny…that was…." Asia panted, unable to finish her sentence.

"It's about to get better, love," Kenny said with a smile before the two lovers entangled each other in their arms and passionately kissed. Their lips mashed together as Kenny's cocked rubbed against the lips of her sensitive womanhood.

After the kiss, Asia rested on the bed with her head on a pillow. Spreading her legs for Kenny as he loomed over her. Kenny knew what she wanted, and the teenager was more than eager to give it to her. As he gazed down at the young girl—no, the young woman in all her splendor, Kenny took in all of her details. From her long legs, wide hips, and C-cup breasts. Of course, the main highlight was her blonde hair and big green eyes. Kenny then gazed down at her dripping pink pussy.

"Please…I'm yours, Kenny," she smiled up at Kenny. Smiling at her lovingly and nodding, Kenny moved between her legs and prodded the head of his cock to her pussy lips. Asia shivered at the touch as he met her gaze.

Kenny then began to slip his way into her. Asia's pussy wrapped around your cock tightly, and she moaned as he embedded himself into her. However, he stopped when he came to her virgin barrier. Kenny groaned as he felt the walls of her tunnel constricting around his pipe like a boa. She was just as tight as Sona! "Ready?"

Asia looked at him in confusion. "Aren't you already in?" She asked, her breath somewhat shaky.

Kenny chuckled. So innocent. "There's just one more step. It'll hurt, but once it's over, the magic will begin."

She swallowed hard and nodded. "Okay, I trust you. I love you, Kenny," she said, as the samurai held onto her as she did so for him.

"I love you too, Asia," Kenny said, kissing her before taking the plunge. Ripping her hymen and filling Asia's pussy all the way.

"AAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Asia screamed out loud as she felt her barrier being torn and Kenny's cock planting itself into her core.

"Holy fucking hell," Kenny groaned, not moving until Asia was ready. Her tightness blew Kenny away, and he nearly blew his load into her. "Shhh, it's okay. I'm here," he whispered in her ear.

"It hurts!" she sobbed slightly with her eyes shut tight.

"Just take it easy, Asia. Here, let me make you feel better." Kenny leaned in and kissed her, catching her off guard and making her gasp. The former nun melted away from his lips connecting with hers, and the two hugged each other tightly until she felt the pain subside.

Kenny broke the kiss and looked down to where they were connected. He saw tiny droplets of blood coming from her soaking pussy and could feel her already tight inner walls tightening around the shaft. Not only that but there was a noticeable budge in her stomach! Its twitching let him know that it was his cock.

He looked back at the youngest member of his harem. "Does it still hurt, or are you okay?"

"I... I'm ready," she said. One hand ran through her golden hair, and the second brushed her bangs from before her eyes as Kenny looked down into her eyes. Asia's smile made the teenager lean down to kiss her again as he slowly drew his hips back and thrust forward again. She moaned in unadulterated pleasure as he repeated the action repeatedly. Replacing the pain with a new sensation. "Mmm... Oh God, yes! It's so... big! I don't know how, but... mmm yes... it fits so well in my... tight little pussy!"

Kenny was stunned by her vulgar language. Never expecting a shy little angel like Asia to even think about cursing, let alone hear her curse with his ears. Then again, she wasn't an Angel like Irina. The blonde girl was a Devil, and Kenny found the little Devil's naughty words absolutely adorable.

Her gasping and moaning sounded so majestic and soothing. Kenny's hands rubbed her smooth, tender legs and basked in the pleasant sensation of his lover's insides squeezing the base of his cock. His thrusts began as steadily as possible, holding Asia close as much as possible without hurting her while pumping into her tunnel. Kenny wanted to be gentle before things eventually turned rough. She was here to heal him, and despite being a reincarnated devil herself, Asia still had this sense of innocence that made Kenny want to be as gentle with her during lovemaking. More so than when he fucks Rias.

Kenny's dragon side wouldn't allow it to stay like that forever, so he made the most of it, thrusting gently and steadily into her dripping tight pussy as she held onto him. Moaning his name in a way that seemed indecent for Asia. Not that it stopped either of them from holding onto the other as Kenny's hips pumped against hers.

"Asia, you feel…so good!" Kenny grunted, starting to thrust into deeper areas already. Making her moans grow louder, quicker, and lewder.

"That's because…you're so big!" Asia moaned loudly, throwing her arms over her head and allowing Kenny to fuck her however he wished. There was no other girl in the harem she had to compete with. It was just her and Kenny. And she wanted to savor it for as long as she could. "Forgive me for being…so vulgar…but…Oh, fuck! Give me more! I want more! Your cock is incredible! I've wanted this for so long! I love you!"

Kenny crashed his lips on her, pressing her down against the bed, and started speeding up. "I love you too…" he whispered to her.

Feeling Kenny going rougher on her, Asia cupped his face in her hands. She leaned up to meet in another kiss that was intended to be gentle. However, had he fucked her faster and harder, the kiss grew more and more intense.

Wanting to change things up, Kenny's hands took hold of Asia's waist as he pumped into her vigorously. He then surprised her by swapping their positions. Now she was sat straddling her lover's lap as his hands slipped down to her ass. With a tight grip on her booty, the samurai helped bounce the blonde up and down on his cock.

"More! More! I love you so much, Kenny! Nghhh! Ah! Oh, fuck!" She kept gasping as she looked down at Kenny. Asia's head was spinning as she felt the oversized cock rub all her sensitive spots hard and fast. Her naughty words turned him on even more, so she continued letting them out. "Harder! Faster! Rougher! I'm…I'm…OOOOOOOHHHHH!"

Kenny felt her vaginal walls suddenly clenched around his cock, and he grunted from the vice-like grip. Then he felt her love juices splash his crotch and the bedsheets. Asia's face twisted with unadulterated glee as she experienced an intense orgasm. The feeling rocked her body as she leaned into his shoulder to bite and muffle her moans, making Kenny groan.

However, he wasn't down. As Asia climaxed, Kenny didn't stop thrusting up like a piston. The pleasure was wracking Asia's body, but she kept herself as composed as she could; she may be happier than ever to be having sex with Kenny, but she had to keep her focus. For him.

"I can feel it! I'm... I'm gonna cum!" Kenny warned her, slamming her wildly down on him

"YES! YES! Go... go ahead and cum inside me! Pour yourself inside of me! Use me! I'm here to heal you! I'm yours, Kenny!" Asia begged, wanting to feel his cum inside so badly. Her hands went to her tits, and she caressed them, feeling her body surging with pleasure. Moving his hands up, Kenny brought them behind her and grabbed two plump marshmallow buttcheeks. She squealed in surprise, throwing her head back. Kenny kept his hands on her ass cheeks, bringing her down on his cock faster and harder.

"Asia!" Kenny grunted and finally let loose. Spearing Asia down and going balls-deep inside her and his member erupted deep inside Asia's pussy and immediately filled her womb to the brim with his burning hot seed.

"KEEEEENNNNNNYYYYY!" The blonde-haired Bishop on him moaned loudly, and her eyes glazed over from the hot sensation filling her. Igniting another orgasm from her. The creampie was too much for her, and her mind went blank. Her body remained of Kenny as he emptied every single drop inside Asia, panting heavily.

"Oh god... that was so amazing," Kenny said between breaths. Her body remained of Kenny as he poured every single drop inside Asia, panting heavily. He then watched as Asia fell forward onto his chest. His still-hard cock slipped out of her creampied pussy.

Asia let out a slight whine at the empty feeling as his mixed cum started to leak from her pussy. Kenny's cute new girlfriend recovered from the hot sex she had with him. Breathing heavily from the intensity of the way she was fucked. "Are you okay, Asia?"

"Yes…I'm just…tired." Asia said. She wanted to keep going, but all of her strength was gone. All she could do was bask in the warmth of his cum. Looking up at him, the blonde girl leaned in, and the two kissed passionately and lovingly. "That was amazing, Kenny."

Kenny gently rounded her off his chest and down on the bed. "I'm serious about what I said early. I'm grateful for what you did."

"There's no need to thank you. I'm just happy you're okay." Asia said sweetly.

Their naked bodies pressed together, both of them feeling hot and sweaty. Kenny greeted Asia's lips with his own. They embraced while making out in the middle of the bed. Hearts were pounding while they stared at each other with love and affection. In all honestly, Kenny's urges were running wild, and he wanted to continue fucking her. However, knowing that she wasn't like the other girls, he decided that one round with Asia was enough. For now.

"I love you, Kenny." She then reached her hand down and traced the length of his cock. "Can you…put it back inside? I want you to say with me tonight."

Remembering how Rias asked him to sleep with him buried inside her cunt, Kenny kissed her cheek. "I'll stay with you for as long as you wish. It's the least I can do," he said, and she laughed before snuggling closer.

Asia and Kenny gasped together as he plunged back inside of her. He kissed her again before the couple fell asleep in each other's arms.


After Kenny woke up the following day, he and Asia were walked in on by the others…while still naked. Needless to say, it was a shock to everyone. Awkward talks were had, Karen berated him for flashing Gasper, and Kenny explained that Asia had officially jobbed the harem. It wasn't how Rias expected to greet her boyfriend, after being worried about him for days, but she didn't hold it against him. Accepting that it was Asia's turn to have Kenny to herself, finally.

After eating what had to be a week's worth of food to replenish his lost strength, Kenny decided it was time to take a bath. Luckily for him, the bathhouse was nearby. Entering through the door, the samurai stripped off his clothes and threw them into a basket. Then he grabbed a towel, wrapped it around his waist, and headed towards the steamy water.

Slowly sliding into the water, Kenny closed his eyes and sank into the water. Completely submerging himself. He sighed happily, feeling more refreshed and better than he had in a while. Coming out of the water and taking a deep breath of air, Kenny leaned back on the steps and allowed himself to relax. Just letting the warmth of the water soothe his muscles.

"How are you feeling, my love?"

Hearing that voice put a smile on Kenny's face. He turned around and was met with the sight of his Crimson-Haired Ruin Princess. She was standing behind him in all her naked glory.

"Better now that you're here," Kenny said as she walked over to him, swaying her hips with each step. Rias sat behind him, hugging him from behind with a big smile on her face. She then reached over to a shower nozzle and turned on the water. Spraying his long hair down to soak it, she then started washing. Making the young samurai moan as Rias gave him a scalp massage. Her touch was so gentle, and her body felt outstanding against him.

A few minutes later, Rias rinsed off his head and started to wash his back. Reaching back, Kenny grabbed one of Rias's hands and pulled it around. The young woman laced her fingers with his as Kenny kissed the back of her hand. In response, Rias wrapped her arm around him and started kissing his neck and shoulder. Despite being in high school, his back was more like a man's.

"I'm so happy you're okay," she said, pulling him into a bear hug.

"Yeah. I'm really sorry for causing a lot of trouble. I can't imagine what you were going through, Rias." Kenny said, Leaning his head against hers.

Rias, however, didn't care as she let go of the hug. "All that matters now is that you're alive, my love.

"Still, I didn't think I'd passed out for three days," Kenny said, turning around to look at her. "Can't believe you all missed school due to me."

"Officially, the school believes that our flight back home was delayed due to a heavy rainstorm," Rias revealed, turning Kenny around to continue washing his back. "So our absence has been excused."

Kenny felt Rias's hands touching his back. However, her fingers slowly traced certain spots on him instead of scrubbing his back. Shivering, he turned back to look at Rias, who had an upset look on her face. "What's wrong?"

"So many scars. Asia's powers never fully healed them," she said gently, her mind reflecting on all the battles he's been in and how he got those scars. "You went through so much, yet you're still so young."

Turning around, Kenny turned around and kissed her passionately. Wrapping his arms around her as she did the same around his neck. Their naked bodies mashed together as they shared their love before pulling away. "I'm still here, Rias. And I just want to say…thank you."

Blinking in confusion, Rias looked up at Kenny. "For what?"

"For pulling me out of Juggernaut Drive," Kenny said, smiling at her. "I can't remember what happened when I was on a rampage, but I remembered you. You found me in my darkness and pulled me out. Thank you, Rias. I love you so much." He leaned down and gently kissed her. "Now, why don't we go home?"


Upon returning home, via magical circle, Kenny learned that the sun was about to set over the horizon and that there was a welcoming home party was being held in his honor. The usual people that lived in the house were there, along with Sona and her peerage. The friends were revealed and happy to see their master's new boyfriend was still alive. And then there was Irina and Rossweisse.

"You guys didn't have to do this," Kenny said, smiling his good-natured smile as he took a paper plate with a piece of cake on it. Everyone else in the living room had a piece of the large cake the Phonex maids baked for him. While Sonna and her peerage wore their school uniforms, Rias, Akeno, Xenovia, Irina, Koneko, and Asia wore casual clothes.

Rias had on the purple outfit she had on when they left the underworld. Akeno was wearing a yellow v-neck sweater with a white button-up shirt under it and black Capri pants. Xenovia wore short jean shorts and a pink shirt, and Irina was dressed the same way. However, she wore a black shirt with white shoulders and a cross with wings. Koneko wore a long blue shirt and shorts, while Asia wore a comfortable pink dress.

"Of course we did. It's not every day someone comes out of a coma," Sona said with a small smile as she took a bit of her cake. "Plus, Rias invited us."

"Well, that's one problem solved, but…." Xenovia turned her head to look behind the couch. "We still have this one to solve."

Frowning, Kenny stood up and walked behind the couch. Sure enough, a familiar silver-haired Valkyrie was curled in a ball, crying. "It's not fair!" Rossweisse exclaimed. "How could Lord Odin be so cruel? I stupidly thought he returned to take me back home, and instead, he sent me into battle. I did it. No complaints. And when it was done with… he returned to Valhalla and left boring old Rossweisse behind!"

Feeling pity for the crying Valkyrie, Kenny couldn't help by feel bad for her. For all his seriousness against the Army of Darkness, Odin handled his subjects poorly. Bending down in front of the beautiful woman, Kenny patted her head. "There, there, Rossweisse. You're always welcome to stay here. We've got plenty of room."

"He probably had a load of admin stuff to wade through after such a major conflict," said Irina, trying to reassure the Valkyrie as well. "I'm sure he'll come back for you soon."

But Rossweisse was not convinced and comically shook her head. "You don't get it! I was supposed to be his bodyguard for this mission, and now he's returned to Asgard without me there to escort him! Then I'll be labeled as the ditzy Valkyrie who wasn't up for the task!"

"Hey, cheer up," Irina said, trying to get through to the woman. But nothing ever did when she started crying.

Knowing that nothing he said would be taken seriously by the Valkyrie, Kenny stood up and shook his head as he walked over to sit between Rias and Akeno. He felt terrible for what happened to Rossweisse. Now they had to contend with the abandoned woman.

"I felt terrible when I saw Odin leaving her behind in the Underworld," Rias said, speaking of Rossweisse as if she were a lost puppy. Which she kind of was. "I had no choice but to bring her here."

"Can't say I blame you," said Kenny. "Hopefully, she'll cheer up soon."

"She'll be fine, and if the Asgardians don't want her back, Sona and I have an idea," Rias said, smiling as Irina tried to help Rossweisse stand up. Only for the Valkyrie to hug her while still crying.

Kenny looked at her with a stunned expression. "Wait, you don't mean…."

Rias, however, placed a finger on Kenny's lips and winked at him. "Not yet. No spoilers~."

"Kenny!" Irina called out as she struggled to walk around the couch behind Kenny. Rossweisse was the one that made the walk difficult. "I think you should handle this. You've got more experience."

"Handle what?"

"HOLD ME!" Rossweisse cried and lounged at him. Knocking Kenny off the cough and down on the floor. She wrapped her arms and legs around him like a baby koala. Sobbing in his chest as everyone looked at him with a mix of bemusement and slight jealousy.

Kenny sighed. "This is my life…."


The following day was back to school as usual. No more kidnappings, no robot invasion, and no more people trying to kill him. Just a typical high school day for the first time in a while. Meaning that Kenny and Asia had all the time they needed to resume practicing for the sports festival. And they've been improving. They chanted 'in' and 'out' as they ran around the track slowly. Irina and Xenovia were there to monitor their progress.

Speaking of which, the blue-haired girl and Asia have gotten very close since the whole kidnapping episode. However, Xenovia had been begging Asia to tell her what sex was like, much to the younger girl's embarrassment. They also seemed to have become well-connected to Irina. They've placed their past problems behind them and have become very close friends. Earning them a new nickname: The Church Trio.

Stopping for a moment, Kenny panted and untied his blonde lover from his leg. "Alright, let's take a break," he said, watching as Asia did her best to catch her breath. "Go and cool down. Stay hydrated."

"Okay," she said as Irina and Xenovia walked over to them with some water.

"Hey, kid!"

Turning around, Kenny was surprised when he spotted Azazel off to the side of the field and waving his hand at him. Beckoning him to follow. Since Kenny was taking a break, he fingered that he should do as the sly Fallen Angel said and followed him.

A second later, they came out to a nice grassy spot as the Governor General lay down on the ground. Watching the clouds as they went by.

"I forget how beautiful the sky can be," Azazel said. "It's days like this that can really remind you what's worth fighting for."

Chuckling, Kenny lay down beside him, enjoying the sun's warmth. "Yeah. But I doubt you came all the way out here to do cloud watching. You would have brought beer if that was the case."

Azazel smirked. "Smart-ass."

Kenny sat up and looked down at him. "So, what's going on?"

"While you were unconscious, I had a little chat. Went through a few things with you buddy living inside of you." Azazel said.

Frowning, Kenny asked, "You and Ddraig talked? What did he say?"

(Flashback)

[What does the Govern General of the Fallen Angels want from me?]

"I need to ask you about the power Kenny released at the end of the fight," Azazel asked with his arms crossed. The green gem of the Boosted Gear began to glow as the Dragon spoke.

[It was a skill that until now had remained dormant. A volatile technique called Juggernaut Drive.]

"That maneuver's expressly forbidden. It's dangerous to bend the power inside a Sacred Gear forcefully."

[Yes, and when activated, it will temporarily give the user enough power to make the Gods envious. But the price for the user is death or a drastically reduced lifespan at the least.]

"Now I'm just wondering how he was able to invoke such a power," Azazel said, looking at the samurai with a curious expression. "He didn't even know it was one of his capabilities."

[My partner's despair and anger surpassed the critical limits, and the Juggernaut Drive was on the other side of the threshold. However, some outside force controlled Kenny's emotions at the time and forced the transformation. As for who or what it was, I'm uncertain.]

[Present]

Kenny's eyes widened as he placed his hands on his knees. "An outside force? What does that mean?" He asked, frowning as he thought over what the Governor General told him.

"So you don't know what he's talking about?" Azazel asked.

"No…I wish I knew," Kenny said, rubbing his face.

"That's what I thought." Sitting up, Azazel then stood to his feet and waved to the samurai as he walked away. "Don't worry about it much, kid."

Kenny just waved back as he sat on the ground. His mind was on something. Mainly Rias. Ever since the fight with Loki, Rias had been acting…differently. It was subtle, but the samurai knew her too well. It was almost as if she was reverting back to her insecure self during her engagement with Riser. But the heir of the Phenex House hadn't shown his face in months. Since Kenny fought him, he's disappeared off the radar.

But if it wasn't Riser, what else was making Rias feel uneasy? Kenny couldn't help but feel shaky. Something was wrong, and his gut was telling him so. But what it was, he didn't know.


In the Ocualt Research Clue's clubhouse, Rias sat by herself on one of the couches. Her mind thought back to her first date with Kenny. His words were as plain as day in her head when he confessed his love for her. Rias then had time to collect her thoughts as she thought about their past adventures together. All the way from the beginning.

And yet…she couldn't help but think about all the new girls that were falling for him. All the girls that her boyfriend invited into his harem. For a while, Rias believed that she was okay with the arrangement that they'd made together. That no matter who he fell for, Kenny's heart, mind, and soul were hers and vice versa. She was his first, and his love for her was greater than anyone else.

So why was she feeling so jealous?

Lost in her thoughts, Rias didn't hear the door to the clubhouse opening until a familiar voice called out to her. "Hey, beautiful."

"Huh?" Rias looked up to see that it was Kenny. "I wasn't expecting you, love. Have you and Asia finished practicing?"

"Yep. I'm just here to pick up the bag and wanted to know if you wanted to walk home with me." Kenny said as he walked over to her.

Confused, Rias looked out the window and saw the sun starting to go down. "Oh, I didn't realize that it was so late."

Kenny walked around the couch, looking at her. "And what's keeping you here?" He asked, standing next to her.

Rias turned away from him and looked at the papers on the table. "Nothing important…" she said. However, the look in her eyes told a different story.

"You seem worried."

Rias scoffed and shook her head. "What do I have to worry about?"

"Don't know. That's why I'm asking," Kenny said, reaching out and rubbing her cheek with his hand. "You know I don't like seeing depression on your beautiful face."

Rias smiled and placed a hand on top of his. Touch by his words, she stood up. "Thank you, Kenny. I promise I'm fine," she said, gathering her papers to take with her.

However, Kenny moved his hands to her shoulders. Rias gasped as her love pulled her in closer. "Rias…I know what's going on," he said, making Rias blush as he moved his head closer. "You don't have to lie to me."

For a moment, the two silently stared at one another. Rias's eyes sparkled as she looked into Kenny's black eyes. She was then surprised when her boyfriend pulled her into a passionate kiss. Letting out a surprised moan as Kenny's lips pressed into hers. However, the shock of the kiss didn't last long as her bright blue eyes closed….

….just before "Kenny's" red eyes opened.


Back on the track and field area, the real Kenny was continuing his training with Asia. Thanks to the help of Irina and Irina, their coordination improved significantly. Since being rescued by each other and Asia finally becoming one of Kenny's girlfriends, their bond has deepened.

After another lap around the track, Kenny and Asia stopped. They nearly tripped over before the samurai caught them. "Great work, Asia. Your coordination is improving," he said as the sun was almost set on the horizon.

"T-Thank you, honey," Asia said, using her own couple name for Kenny.

"Alright, let's do one more round and see how fast we are—" Kenny stopped when he reached into his pocket, only to find nothing. "Aw man…"

"What's wrong?" Asia asked.

"Forgot the stopwatch in the clubroom. I'll go grab it," Kenny said, bending down and starting to untie their legs.

After grabbing the Sword, he kissed Asia on the head and took off back to the clubhouse. While he approached the building, Kenny saw Koneko walking to the clubhouse's entrance. "Hey, Koneko!" He called out to the Rook, getting her attention.

"Hi, Kenny," she said with a smile. Together, they entered inside and made their way up to the second floor. "I was just about to fetch Gaspy to do bread-eating training."

"Nice. The little guy's gonna—" Kenny stopped in the hallway and gasped. Shocked by what he saw.

In front of the clubroom door, Gasper was on the floor, knocked out cold.

"Gasper!"

"Gaspy!" Koneko shouted as they got to the half-vampire.

Bending down, Kenny slowly lifted him up and looked at the face of the Bishop. Wincing when he saw the black and blue marking with his hair messed up and his clothing having slashes and cuts. Setting him back down, Kenny drew the Sword and slit his finger. Opening Gasper's month, he dragged it across his tongue. Making him taste the blood.

Smacking his lips, Gasper slowly opened his eyes and started to regain consciousness. Once he did, he looked up to see Kenny. "Kenny? I-Is that really you?"

Sniffing the air, Koneko frowned. "I can smell him."

Gritting his teeth, Kenny rushed to the door with the Sword. He kicked open the door and was shocked by what he saw.

Standing a few feet away from him was him! But it wasn't him. This Kenny looked at the real one with a smirk of malice. His eyes were red, and there were bags under them. He wore a black kimono with red accents and a copy of the Sword on his hip.

The fake Kenny narrowed his eyes at Kenny's shocked expression.

But as Kenny's gaze lowered, his eyes widened in shock when he saw his imposter had wrapped his arm around Rias's waist. The crimson-haired woman lounged in the copy's hold with her left arm around his neck as she leaned backwards, with her right arm hanging down lazily. However, the way she looked bothered Kenny. She stared at him with an expression he's never seen her direct at him. It was like she was smugly smiling at him. The same smugness that was seen in the smile of the imposter.

"What the hell…." Kenny growled, seeing his girlfriend in the arms of another man. Or, in case, another him. "Who are you?"

"Don't be such a fool!" The other him snapped angrily. "I'm you!"

"No, you're not! Now get your hands off of her!" Kenny shouted, rushing forward with his sword. Wanting to get the love of his life away from the imposter.

"Kenny, be careful!" Koneko shouted.

Rias's lips parted just a little as she gave a small laugh. Then she lifted her hand. Using her magic to create a barrier.

CLASH!

Kenny swung, and the Sword struck the barrier. As he struggled to push through, the samurai looked at his girlfriend with shock. "Rias, what are you going?!" He yelled before he was pushed back. Stumbling a bit, Kenny gritted his teeth as he glared at his counterpart.

"That energy…" Koneko gasped.

"Enough of this!" Kenny shouted, pointing the Sword at his copy. "What you do to my Rias? Who are you, and how did you come to be?!"

"I am the son of Loki's magic!" the evil version of the samurai said. "He has looked deep within you and has spawned me from your own burning hatred! I am your dark side, and I possess all the powers you wield. All for one purpose: to destroy you!"

"Yeah, well, go find your own evil girlfriend, because Rias is not yours!" Kenny exclaimed before looking at his redhead love. "Rias! You've got to snap out of it! He's not the real me!"

Lowering her arm, Rias almost seemed like she was considering his words. However, Dark Kenny pulled her closer, and she rested her head on his shoulder. Looking at him with a long look. The same longing look she's only ever given Kenny.

Seeing she was back under the imposter's control, Kenny's eyes widened. "No…"

Dark Kenny smirked at Kenny as he stroked Rias's hair. "She's mine now."

Soon, Dark Kenny held up his hand and summoned his Boosted Gear without using the Sword. Kenny was too busy looking at the woman he loved more than anyone in the arms of his dark version in heartbreak. He didn't even see the large amount of energy building up in the imposter's gauntlet.

Suddenly, there was a flash of white light that emanated from the windows of the building. Its power was so immense that those who could sense it felt it, and those outside could see the light.

KAABBOOOOMMM!

What can next was a massive explosion that destroyed a large chunk of the clubhouse.

From afar, Rossweisse and the Phenex Maids reached the school's gates. Seeing the explosion, the Valkyrie grabbed hold of the bars, and the four women looked at it in horror. Fearing the that they were too late to stop the catastrophe.

"We weren't fast enough!" Rossweisse said.

"Master Kenny's not dead!" Xuelan exclaimed. "He wouldn't die that easily."

"We better see what's going on inside," Karlamine said.

"Right!" Isabela nodded.


The school was in the middle of a panic. When the explosion happened, everyone rushed outside to see what had just happened. Everyone was shocked to see what had happened to the Occult Research Club's clubhouse. The explosion destroyed the entire third floor. Reduced to rubble in the blink of an eye. No one understood how it could have exploded, and people were scrambling for answers.

Sona and the Student Council quickly came out to try and block off the area. As her peerage moved the students back to set up a barrier, Sona saw her boyfriend being taken care of by Yubelluna, the school's nurse. Kenny was sitting against a tree with Koneko and Gasper sitting with him. The others gathered around the samurai, so she quickly rushed over.

"Are you sure you're okay, master?" The busty woman asked, placing her hand on Kenny's forehead.

"Yeah…I'm fine," Kenny said, trying to give her a confident smile. But even he couldn't find the strength to do it. "How did we get out?"

"That's what I'm hoping to know," Sona said, looking at her boyfriend worriedly.

As Yubelluna stood up, Akeno looked at her boyfriend worried and said, "We're still not on any of the details, but thank Gasper. He was able to stop time right before the explosion and pulled the three of you out of there."

Koneko looked at her fellow freshman as he had just started waking up. "Thanks a lot, Gaspy," she said with a small smile.

"We're so proud of you," Xenovia said, bending down.

"I'm ashamed that something like this could transpire on school property," Sona said. However, realizing that her best friend wasn't with them, she gasped and looked around. "Where's Rias?"

His grip tightened on the Sword as Kenny gritted his teeth angrily. "It was Loki…He's responsible…." He revealed. "He took Rias."

Sona was shocked. "What?!"

"Then we're too late."

Kenny looked up to see Azazel, Rossweisse, the other maids, and Karen walking over to them. The approaching group bore grim expressions on their faces.

"Gasper!" Karen quickly rushed over to him to see if he was okay.

"Valhalla sent an emergency message to Rossweisse," Azazel said, frowning. "We best regroup at the house."


Later that night, everyone returned to Kenny's house. Azazel explained what he knew about the situation to everyone else. Meanwhile, Kenny was taken outside by Rossweisse. Together, they stood on the roof to speak privately about what the Valkyrie had learned. She began explaining to the young samurai that Dark Kenny was indeed a creation of Loki, and he was formed from the curse the Norse God placed on both Rias and himself. Loki took credit for it before sealing himself inside his prison cell in a barrier of ice.

"We thought he was just spewing nonsense," he said, remembering how Loki quoted Shakespeare.

"The curse lays siege to a person's heart. Gnawing away at it piece by piece. They cling to doubts that linger in the depths of your soul. Doubts you've forgotten about, or worse, doubts you never realized you had in the first place." The silver-haired Valkyrie explained to the samurai with a severe look on her face. "Loki used those buried feelings against you. But for you, it must have been even worse, given your status."

Kenny frowned as he turned to Rossweisse before looking down. His mind began to fill with images of what happened when he lost control of the Juggernaut Drive. He saw Raynare speaking to him. Egging him on and pulling at his grief, anger, and fears.

"Did you remember something, Kenny?" She asked, looking at him curiously.

"Yeah. I was just thinking about Raynare…."

"The rogue Fallen Angel?" She asked.

"The very one," Kenny said, reaching down and gently touching his stomach. The spot where she killed him. Despite it being over a year now and despite getting revenge on her, Raynare still left an impact on Kenny's life. She was his first girlfriend, and Kenny liked her before she turned out to be evil. When she showed her true colors, it hurt him. And it was her that killed Asia, devastating Kenny.

Kenny would never doubt that the girls love him, and he would never doubt his love for them. But Kenny was scared that he wouldn't be able to protect them, just like he'd failed to protect Asia from Raynare. Just like the samurai's relationship with the Fallen Angel was cut short, his relationship with the girls would be, too, if something were to happen.

"We're here for you. But if you are not ready to talk, there's no pressure," the Valkyrie said sympathetically.

Sighing, Kenny shook his head and looked up at the night sky. "No…the truth is I should have talked to someone about this from the beginning. I've been so focused on everyone else that I've never reached out for help. I've been holding it in because…I have to stay strong for everyone else."

Looking at the lonely samurai with sympathy, Rossweisse walked up next to him and leaned against the railing. She looked at the handsome young man. "Would it help to talk to me?"

Kenny sighed and explained what had happened to him the night Raynare killed him. Rossweisse just stood there and listened to him as Kenny unloaded everything on her. The things he's seen. The things he's been through. His thoughts on the matter and how these have all affected him.

It was a lot to take in for the Valkyrie. She's heard about his battles and adventures but never thought about the human toll it had on the young man, who was barely an adult. She placed a hand on Kenny's shoulder affectionately. "Perhaps it's intimacy. Of being so close to the ones you love." Rossweisse said, frowning as she squeezed his shoulder. "Kenny, you've had the fate of the world placed on your shoulders. It will be you that will save it from Aku if he is to return. You've taken on so much responsibility as the next Samurai Jack that you didn't know how to share it with others. The others may say that they're with you, yet you're afraid it'll kill them. You can't blame yourself for Asia's first death, nor for not being strong enough to save Rias. It's not your fault, Kenny.

"I…but…"

Rossweisse gently placed her hand on his cheek and turned his head to face her. "You're not at fault. Dark Kenny was all Loki's doing. Not you. Please don't blame yourself for things out of your control."

Kenny looked at Rossweisse in stunned silence. Blinking to make sure she didn't turn into a different person. That inspirational speech was coming from the same Valkyrie that yesterday was whining and crying about how Odin abandoned her to Midgard. However, she seemed so wise and insightful about his fears and pain. Kenny had heard these things repeatedly. Yet he had not fully taken them to heart. It was understandable, as he was stuck with his Sacred Gear and the Sword, the only weapon capable of killing Aku. However, despite his powers, Kenny was still capable of falling. But one way or another, he learned to stand back up and win.

Closing his eyes, Kenny sighed and smiled. "Thank you, Rossweisse," he said, prompting her to retract her hand. "But what about Rias? What kind of doubts could she have?"

Looking down, Rossweisse sighed. "I don't know. I'm sorry, but you'd have to ask her yourself. Or the problem causing it is buried so deep within Rias' psyche that she doesn't even realize that it's there."

Kenny frowned and looked up at the sky. His mind filled with Rias. From the moment he met her to the intimate times they've had with one another. With the graceful way she carried herself and her eyes that pierced your soul, she was the most brilliant and beautiful girl in the entire school. To think that she had doubts was unthinkable.

Whatever's bothering her, Kenny will find out. He will save her.

Whatever the cost.

"Let's head downstairs and regroup with the others. Together, we'll think of a plan to save Rias." Rossweisse said. Kenny nodded in agreement, following after the beautiful Valkyrie as they regrouped with everyone else downstairs.

Once they were down on the first floor where everyone was, Kenny saw they had contacted Sirzechs and Ajuka through a magic hologram. "How are you holding up, Sirzechs?" Azazel asked after the Govern General, and the two Satans made all the greetings.

"I am…the Devil King first and a concerned brother second. I will conduct myself according to my station in this matter," Sirzechs said with a brow furrowing.

Azazel nodded and looked down slightly. "Glad you're keeping a clear head."

"Per our last message from Asgard, breaking through Loki's barrier will take a rather long time. Which is a luxury we don't have," the Satan explained to the people in the room.

"We just need to know where he's taken Rias," Azazel said, crossing his arms. "Then we make our move and take down the clone."

Turning away from the Governor General, Sirzech addressed the rest of the group. "My sources say she has been taken to the Dimensional Gap."

"The Dimensional Gap?" asked Kenny.

"Hold on, isn't that the same place that Shalba sent Asia?" Akeno asked, looking at the Devil Kings with worry.

"I've searched the kingdoms of Gods and Devils alike. It's the only remaining possibility. Ajuka said, speaking for the first time since he first showed up.

"So, if we can get there, we should be able to save Rias, right?" Xenovia asked, looking around the room at everyone.

However, Azazel frowned. "The void of the Dimensional Gaoe doesn't behave according to our laws of time and space. If Vali hadn't stumbled across Asia at that precise moment while traveling, we could have lost her there forever. Simply put, being thrust into the Gap is more often than not a death sentence."

"Okay, but we saw the bastard and his goons do it," Karen pointed out. "How are they still alive?"

"The Army of Darkness is a diverse assortment with members from all Three Factions allied with Aku and his most loyal of followers," Azazel explained while pulling his legs underneath him as he looked at the ground. "They must have been using a method, courtesy of Aku, still unknown to our coalition."

"It could be possible…We would have to lock existence on this plane. We could use this world as a beacon of sorts." Ajuka theorized.

Kenny frowned and shook his head. "Not good enough." He spoke up, getting the attention of everyone in the room. "Rias isn't just my girlfriend. She's our King and friend. This happened on my watch, and I'll need help to fix it. No one fights alone." He turned his head and looked at Rossweisse.

The silver-haired Valkyrie smiled and nodded.

"Sounds like you've got an idea," Karen said.

"Yeah. But you're not going to like it."

Karen grinned. "It wouldn't be your plan if I did."

Kenny then turned to Koneko and walked over to her. "Koneko, I know I'm asking a lot out of you, and I wouldn't be asking it if there was any other way. But I need you to contact your sister."

Koneko tilted her head a bit. "You need Kuroka?"

Kenny nodded. It was the only option he had. One he knew was a massive risk to take, but if there was a chance of saving Rias, he had to take it.

"I'm going to talk to Vali."

Episode XXXV

The Calm


And there we go. After the intense battle with the Juggernaut Drive, we're nearing the end of season three. This was a pretty dull chapter to write, though there were some fun moments. We've had sex, average school life, and the return of one of the most memorable Samurai Jack villains.

In the beginning, we have Kenny being healed and Asia finally having her time to have sex with our hero. Honestly, it's about time. It's been teased about so much in the show, so I might as well do it. I can't think of a better time than now. While I would have had Kenny usually ravaging whatever girl he was sleeping with, I decided to go soft on Asia. Afterward, we had a tender moment with Kenny and Rias in the bath. I was about to have them have sex but decided to hold off until after his battle with Dark Kenny.

And speaking of which, I'm so happy to have the evil clone in this story! Mad Jack was one of my favorite episodes of the series, and I've been waiting for this moment to bring him in. Can't wait to have Kenny fight him.

Up next is the next chapter of Gem of War. I've been working on it while working on this, but now it's time to focus on that. When we return to this story, I'll combine the last two episodes into one.

Until then, have a good day.
