After a weird night finding out that Ddraig was a busty blonde in crimson armour with a serious attitude, Issei dragged himself out of his house and began his usual walk to school. However, about halfway there he saw a girl on the ground who seemed to have fallen over.
"Oh, I'm so clumsy, why do I keep falling over?" he heard the girl mutter to herself. Issei grinned perversely as he could see her plain white panties from the position she was in. She reconstituted herself among her scattered belongings and turned around. Issei was treated to the sight of the girl's face. She was young, pretty, had bright green eyes and blonde hair. She wore the attire of a travelling nun. She had an air of innocence about her that, while endearing, carried staggering amounts of naivete.
Issei saw her scattered belongings and decided to lend a hand. He was a pervert, but a good hearted one.
"Hey let me help you out there. You alright?" Issei said as he began to help her up. There was very little in the way of her possessions, which made him wonder just where she'd come from and why. Also, weren't girls supposed to have a ton of things with them on things like this?
"Yes I'm okay, really. Thank you." Her voice was sweet and innocent, devoid of any contempt. Issei realised he was still holding her hand and pulled away quickly, putting his hand on the back of his head out of embarrassment. A sudden gust of wind caught the veil over her head and blew it away. Issei was quick to act, grabbing it before it could be carried off.
Man she's totally my type! Blonde and busty gets me lusty! he thought.
Oh, so I'm your type, am I, boy?
Ddraig interjected. Issei could hear the smirk in her voice.
Uh, that's not what I meant! Issei protested.
What, so I'm not good looking to you?
Now you're just preying on my weakness to women. No fair Ddraig!
He returned the veil to the girl who smiled sweetly to him. "That was very sweet of you, thanks."
"Oh it was no problem, really." he said kindly. Now I gotta keep this going… let's see. He thought. "So, uh… the weather's nice today am I right?"
Dammit I just sounded like my grandmother! he raged.
Smooth, real smooth. Ddraig chuckled.
Shut up! Now you sound like Haru.
"I'm sorry but, you see I'm a little lost. Do you think you could help me out?" the girl asked with a blush staining her cheeks.
After a while of small talk and getting to know each other, Issei found that she was a nun from overseas assigned to work at the church in this town. He'd seen the cross around her neck and felt off. And not long after that, she'd healed a small boy's scraped knee and his left hand started feeling weird.
That girl has a Sacred Gear. However, I'm not sure which one. Keep a close eye on her, after all you're both opposed, don't forget that. Ddraig warned.
They walked for a little longer until the church was in view. "Oh look, there it is, thank goodness we've found it!" the girl said happily. However, Issei felt like every cell in his body was on the defensive upon looking at the church, every instinct telling him to get away.
"It's strange. I've never seen anyone up there." Issei said. The girl turned to him with a smile.
"I want to thank you properly. Would you mind going there with me?" she asked.
"Uh, I can't, sorry. I have somewhere to be." he replied too quickly. His left arm was twitching and shaking. The girl's eyes dropped in disappointment.
"Oh okay. Well it was nice of you to help me find it. I'm Asia Argento."
"And I'm Issei Hyoudou. And you are very welcome." he said honestly.
"It was a blessing meeting you here. I really hope we see each other again." Asia said genuinely. Issei blushed himself.
"Yeah, I hope so too."
"You must never go near the church again, Issei." Rias admonished sternly. Her arms were folded over her chest and her eyes conveyed her warning.
"But why?" Issei asked in confusion.
"For Devils like us the church is enemy territory. I'm willing to bet that you felt strange approaching it." She explained. "Simply setting foot inside of a church would cause major problems for both Angels and Devils."
"So that's what I felt. When I got close to it I felt a chill and my left arm started being weird." Issei said.
Suddenly they heard someone clear their throat. "Sorry but I have to borrow Issei for a while." Coming out of the shadows wearing a white hoodie, black jeans and black and white converse was Haru. He flashed them both a grin.
"What do you need to borrow my servant for?" Rias asked. Haru held up his hands in a placative way.
"Why so hostile, geez? I'm gonna make ol' Issei here a hell of a lot stronger, so be a little grateful." he said testily.
"Go on Issei, see you tomorrow." Rias said with a heavy sigh before leaving. Issei turned to Haru who grinned again.
"I'm not gonna enjoy this am I?" Issei asked with a gulp. Haru's grin widened.
"Haha, no. No you are not." he replied with a laugh.
"Welcome to my humble abode Issei." Haru said, kicking off his shoes. Issei took his off and followed Haru to the living room.
"Why did your doorway smell weird?" Issei asked, making Haru cringe.
"Let's just not go there, yeah?" Haru said quickly. He looked around seeing no sign of Rossweisse or Ophis.
"Where the hell are they?" he asked himself.
"Oh hey Haru!" came the cheery voice of Rossweisse. She came down the stairs wearing something more casual than her Valkyrie armour. She wore a white blouse and blue jeans, a welcome change from vomit stained armour.
"Hey Rossweisse. This is Issei Hyoudou, the other one." he said casually while Issei glared at him, seething with jealousy.
"Dude! You got a chick living with you!?" he yelled.
"She's not living here dude, relax." he replied calmly.
"Wouldn't be so sure." came the monotone voice of Ophis from the living room, who wasn't there a moment ago. Sense made? None.
"Wait, what do you mean Ophis?" Haru said on the edge of a mini breakdown.
"I'm living here from now on. Until I can remember what it was Odin wanted me to tell you, I'll be staying here so it's convenient for me when I can remember." Rossweisse said seriously.
"Oh fuck my life." Haru said miserably. His life seemed to be spiralling out of his control, all at the hands of powerful females too. "Don't I get a say?" he whined.
Rossweisse shook her head, a smug smile on her face all the while. "Anyway Issei, I brought you here to meet Ophis. She's gonna be training us from now on."
Issei tilted his head to the side."How, she's just a little kid?" Haru laughed at this.
"Oh, you'd be surprised." Haru said with a grin that said "You're probably not gonna walk away from this the same way. Or at all."
Ophis swung her hand up and back down, ripping open a black void. "Go inside. It's a pocket dimension." She said before entering. Haru rolled his shoulders and took a deep breath.
"Divine Dividing, Balance Breaker." In a burst of white light, the white and blue metal wings flexed outward and pearl-white armour started to engulf Haru's body with the White Dragon Scale Mail.
Issei stood in amazement. "Dude, you look like a fucking Gundam! Does mine do that?"
Haru looked at Issei. "It will be in time. For now, we got training to do. Let's go!" he said as he flexed his wings and flew into the void. Issei gulped and stepped inside, followed by Rossweisse. She had no real reason to go in other than to observe just what was about to happen.
Three Dragons were about to clash, and anyone who would pass up watching it was certainly a fool.
