18(Naruko P.o.V)
My Knight came to save me. He saved me from getting hurt more. I'm grateful and we kissed! We actually kissed! Now, he has to take responsibility. I don't know about him but when I kiss someone, I expect us to have something… more. A relationship. That's what Kaa-chan said to me. If you kiss someone then you want to be with that person.
But now that isn't important. What is important is what's happening. Yuuto-kun found out about me being… a half breed. I didn't want to be this again. I didn't want to have a Sacred Gear, or be a half breed like this. I'm grateful because my parents didn't hate me, but pretty much every other Inugami didn't like the fact that my Tou-chan made love with a human woman and produced me...
[Sorry, my fault.]
What's your fault?
[I unsealed your Inugami half. That's how you were able to keep that barrier up for as long as you could.]
But I didn't want to be this again!
[But its fine. Your Knight loves the form. You should be thanking me.]
Ugh! Whatever! But...erm, I guess I should thank you. Maybe I will need this Inugami form in the future.
[Yes. I guess you will.]
I sighed as we continued on. During my time in captivity, I was… groped by that sick freak Freed and the male Fallen Angel. They touched my breasts without my permission and tried to kiss me. I feel ill that someone I didn't want touching me touched me in a place like that.
I also talked with Asia-chan since our cages were next to one another's. I promised to become her best girlfriend. Not in a lesbian way as I'm sure Menma-kun might think if he heard me say girlfriend. But we are both girls, around a similar age and we just got on quite well. I need a girl to talk to also sometimes.
Yuuto-kun and I walked up the stairs. Everywhere on my body aches but I don't want to worry Yuuto-kun… being on a first name basis is going to take some time to get used to, isn't it?
When we reached the top of the stairs and opened the door...
"Asia-chan..."
I saw Asia-chan on the pew… I can't see her chest moving at all. Don't tell me that bitch Raynare actually killed her and took her Sacred Gear? I feel anger rise inside me and the willingness to kill has become even stronger.
"I don't see Koneko-chan..."
Yuuto-kun whispered to me. I looked around to… see that bitch Raynare beating Menma-kun! I don't think so! Yuuto-kun then tabbed me on the shoulder.
"I think Koneko-chan must still be down there. I'm going to go and assist her."
"O-Ok. I'm going to help Menma-kun."
"Don't put yourself in danger or do anything reckless."
He's worried about me. I placed a small kiss on his cheek and gave him a reassuring smile.
"Don't worry about me. Go and help Koneko-chan. I've got a friend to help."
We nod to one another and he uses that speed to go downstairs to help Koneko-chan. He went into the alter huh. Alright, then. Raynare you bitch!
Menma-kun tried to land a punch on her but she dodged it as if she's dancing.
"I will explain it so even a dummy like you can understand. It's a simple power difference. I have a power of 1000. You have a power of 1. You can't shorten the gap between us no matter what. Even with the ability of that Sacred Gear, the power doubled is only 2. Its futile! How can you win against me!? Ahahahahahahaha!"
[Boost!]
Menma-kun's Sacred Gear made that noise. Boost? What does that mean? Boosting something? What's it boosting? Well, whatever! I'm not letting her hurt him! I moved forward and spoke with a strong voice.
"Hey bitch! Back away from my friend, right now!"
They both stopped what they are doing and looked in my direction. Menma-kun has a relieved face while Raynare has an angry face.
"Naruko-chan! Y-You're safe! I'm so glad!"
Manly tears came out of his eyes. Geez Menma-kun, don't cry.
"You little bitch! You escaped your cage huh!?"
"That's right. Now all the pain you caused, I'm going to give it back to you tenfold!"
I charged at her with this dark sword in hand! Bitch is going to die! Raynare made something appear in her hand… a light spear! Right, she is about to attack me. I activated my Sacred Gear and made a semi circle barrier appear in front of me as she threw the light spear!
Gin!
The spear bounced off the barrier and I carried on! There's no way I am letting her continue on with her disgusting ways anymore!
"For all the friends you've hurt! For torturing me! For killing Asia-chan! For killing Menma-kun! You bitch are about to diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiie!"
I closed the distance and swung this darkness blade at her!
Giiiiiiiiiiin! Giiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin!
She blocked the blade with a sword of light! This sword is solid light. Light from a Fallen Angel. I hate this bitch in front of me. She's caused so many problems in Menma-kun's and my life! She then sneered disgustingly at me!
"Hahahahahaha! Even if you can block attacks, don't even think you can win against a powerful Fallen Angel-sama like me!"
"Tch! You aren't all powerful, dumb bitch!"
I then proceeded to have a sword fight with her. I haven't had training in sword fighting but I believe I'm doing quite well by using this sword to block the strikes she uses against me.
"You don't have any technique! You surely are going to lose!"
"If that's what you believe!"
I forced her back then I made a swing to the left!
CUT!
"Iyaaaaaaa! You bitch!"
I'm really sick of people calling me a bitch. I cut her arm with my or rather Yuuto-kun's sword. Blood poured out of her arm. I saw a chance to attack so I made a stab with the blade!
Fly!
But she took to the sky with those dark wings of hers! Great, I can't fly! Then she made rings appear on her hands. And a familiar glow appears… that green glow is the glow of Asia-chan's Sacred Gear! She really took her Sacred Gear after all.
"My, you actually managed to cut me! I need to repay you for that!"
She healed the wound on her arm. Damn it. Somehow we need to either knock her out, or make a wound she wont be able to heal. And unfortunately, I don't have that kind of raw power to do either. The best I could do is catch her off guard and stab the bitch right through the chest.
She flew down at me. I raised a barrier to protect myself!
Shatter!
She broke my barrier easily! I must be running out of power. No, I've already gone over the limit the voice said I should. I had that barrier around me in that cage for more than 12 hours. I need to keep myself safe and that's the best I could do. The voice said I shouldn't do that as it will drain me too much.
"Menma-kun! You can jump in anytime you like!"
I yelled as I parried her light sword! I'll give her this, she's a persistent girl! I was pushed back because of her attack. I stumbled and fell to my butt!
"Die bitch!"
She came at me and I feel too drained to raise a barrier! Ooh no, I'm going to die!
"LEAVE HER ALONE!"
[Explosion!]
Menma-kun yelled. Raynare stopped her attacked and looked at Menma-kun who has a raged expression on his face. I feel a change in Menma-kun's power. I can't explain it but he somehow just jumped from weak to strong.
[Its his Sacred Gear. It must be responding to his anger due to you being in danger.]
Ooh, is that so? Does that mean Menma-kun really cares about me?
[...For the love of...obviously.]
Don't speak to me like that! I wasn't asking you! I was musing to myself!
"…Impossible. What is this? Why is something like this happening…? Isn't that Sacred Gear supposed to be the Twice Critical which doubles the power of the possessor? …It can't be. It's not possible. Why has your power surpassed mine…? This wave of demonic power I'm feeling… is that of a middle class… no, that of a high class Devil…"
He has the power of a high class Devil? And it's due to his Sacred Gear?
"Lies! This is all lies! I am the Fallen Angel that has attained the ultimate healing power! I turned into a superior being by obtaining this Twilight Healing! I received the right to be loved by Azazel-sama and Shemhazai-sama! I wouldn't lose to some low-life like you!"
"You stole that Sacred Gear! No one will love you for doing that!"
She gathered light in her hands and aimed for Menma-kun! I don't think so! I stood up and swung my sword at her body! She twisted her body!
CHOP!
Blood gushed out as I chopped off her wing! Damn this sword is sharp! Take that! Retribution! Raynare let out a howl in anger and faced me! She pointed her hands at me!
"YOU WHORE! I SHOULD'VE KILLED YOU THAT DAY ALSO!"
"DON'T YOU CALL NARUKO-CHAN A WHORE YOU SLUT!"
Menma-kun ran at Raynare! She was about to fly away but couldn't due to her wing being lopped off! Menma-kun got close to her and grabbed her by the arm!
"Blow away, you shitty Angel!"
"Damn yoooooooou! Low-class Deeeeeevil!"
"Uoryaaaaaaaa!"
The gauntlet released all of its energy. Menma-kun pulled his arm back and then aimed for Raynare's face! He then went for the punch at the enemy!
BANG!
Menma-kun was about to hit that thing! The Fallen Angel crashes into the wall while making a very loud noise. The wall broke and there is a big hole in the wall. Dust starts to spread everywhere.
"That's for calling Naruko-chan a whore."
I smiled in appreciation as he looked at Asia-chan… Asia-chan is dead. Asia-chan is… Asia-chan… Menma-kun then started to stumble so I rushed to his side and steadied him.
"Thanks… are you alright?"
He looked over my body. All these cuts and bruises and whatnot must be worrying for him.
"I-I'm fine. You know me. Something like this wont bother me. But you, have holes in your legs. How the hell you just did that, I have no idea."
"And what about you? You charged at the Fallen Angel, despite being locked away and… just what did they do to you?"
"Nothing compared to what they did to Asia-chan. Menma-kun… I'm sorry I couldn't do anything to help her… I tried to make them take me first… I didn't want her to be like that… and I got captured..."
He put a hand on my cheek and patted it.
"Idiot, don't ever say that again. This isn't your fault. It's that bitches Raynare."
"Thank you Menma-kun."
Just then, I felt my power leave me. As I was about to fall to the floor, I fell into the arms of the boy I kissed. I smiled upwards as he carried me bridal style! D-Don't! People will see up my skirt!
"Yuuto-kun! P-People can s-see up my skirt!"
Faster than I could comprehend, he took off his school jacket and placed it over my legs and I pulled up a little so it covers my chest also. That's better. I rested my head against his shoulder as Rias-senpai came over and looked at me.
