The two light spears briefly held back the red lance before they both shattered and Dohnaseek cried out in pain as the lance inflicted another narrow cut along his chest and sent him crashing into the ground. Seeing an opening Issei jumped towards the downed Fallen Angel with his lance thrusting towards Dohnaseek's heart. However seeing this and realizing that he didn't have time to summon his light spears to block the Fallen Angel reached up and grabbed the shaft of Issei's lance just as it was about to pierce his heart.
The lance hovered there just above Dohnaseek's chest as the two of them attempted to overpower the other, one attempting to push it away while the other tried to impale his opponent. Eventually the deadlock was broken as Issei heard Raynare approaching from behind and yanked his lance backwards, carrying Dohnaseek along with him as the Fallen Angel failed to anticipate the sudden change in their tug of war.
The male Fallen Angel was once again sent flying and crashed into Raynare which sent the two of them tumbling to the ground, only for them both to roll to either side as they dodged Issei's red lance stabbing where they had been laying seconds earlier. The two Fallen Angels quickly took to the sky as they began to reappraise Issei who was meeting their gaze, a bloodthirsty grin on his face as he picked up Dohnaseek's fedora that had fallen to the ground and placed it on his head.
"What is up with this kid?" muttered Dohnaseek as he tried to ignore the pain from the numerous wounds and summoned his spears.
"I don't know he wasn't anything like this before he summoned that Sacred Gear," replied Raynare, equally wary of the boy.
"Is that even a Sacred Gear? I don't recognize it, do you?" he asked with a frown.
Raynare shook her head, "no I don't but it has to be a Sacred Gear, what else could it be?"
"I don't know but I keep getting the feeling that he's holding back against us, like he could end this in a single attack if he wanted to," answered Dohnaseek with a concerned frown.
"Don't be ridiculous Dohnaseek he's just a human he doesn't stand a chance against the two of us," scoffed Raynare.
Dohnaseek remained silent as he just stared at Issei's lance and frowned as his battle hardened instincts kept screaming at him to run from that demonic spear. The reports had said that the boy had a draconic Sacred Gear not a demonic one and while it was possible for the reports to get it wrong, Dohnaseek couldn't escape the feeling that this wasn't the case.
"Oi are you two done yet? I thought you were supposed to be on a limited time frame?" commented the smug human.
"You smug little shit! I'm going take great pleasure in killing you," snarled Raynare.
Dohnaseek just gritted his teeth as he realized the kid was right, they couldn't afford for the Devils of this city to catch them here. Sighing he and Raynare nodded to each other before the both split up and each began throwing spears from different angles.
"Damn it!" growled Issei as the sheer volume of spears being thrown began to overwhelm him, cuts and scratches beginning to appear along his body.
Finally there was a lull in the spear barrage as both Fallen Angels stopped to recover their energy and stared down in shock at Issei who was panting heavily but still alive and kicking. Sighing as he realized that he would need to use his ace, Issei grasped his lance in two hands and got into his stance, focusing on the more experienced Dohnaseek.
Instantly the bloodlust around them increased tenfold as the tip of Issei's lance began to glow a blood red, begging to be unleashed upon his enemies. Not removing his gaze from Dohnaseek's eyes Issei thrust his lance forward as he activated the Noble Phantasm, making recognition and fear appear in the eyes of the two Fallen Angels.
"GAE BOLG!" called Issei as his lance turned into a red beam that began heading straight towards Dohnaseek.
The Fallen Angel quickly dived behind the stone fountain only for the red beam to live up to its name and change direction at an impossible angle before piecing his heart. The name had been called and so the reversal of the nature of causality activated. Instead of the heart being pierced by the thrust of the lance it became; the heart has been pierced so the lance must have been thrust. Meaning that the spear cannot be thrust without the heart first being pierced as Dohnaseek had just found out.
Raynare just watched as the lance pierced her companion's heart before he coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground, the expression of shock still on his face. Gae Bolg then transformed back into a red beam before returning to Issei's hand and turning back into a lance as the teen grinned up at her.
"Impossible! Only Cú Chulainn himself can use that weapon! Don't tell me you're one of his descendants! I didn't think he had any left!" exclaimed the shocked Raynare.
"Maybe I am and maybe I'm not. The question now is shall we continue this or do you want to call it here?" bluffed Issei with a confident grin as he tried to hide his exhaustion.
Raynare pondered for a minute as she looked between Issei and her dead companion, eyes widening as Issei's image was briefly replaced by a blue clad man eyeing her with an eager smile, before she turned began flying away as fast as possible to get out of the Gae Bolg's range. After she left Issei collapsed to the ground in exhaustion and he began panting heavily as Gae Bolg glowed before turning back into the Lancer card.
"See I knew you could do it," cheered a male voice from a nearby park bench.
It was a good thing that Gae Bolg had already vanished as he probably would have stabbed the bastard right then and there.
The Occult Research Clubroom was quiet as they all prepared for the summoning that didn't happen, as the silence continued until Kiba was the first to speak up, "Buchou I don't think it's happening."
"Damn it he was supposed to summon me so why didn't he!?" cried a distraught Rias.
