Both Kaname Ohgi's resistance cell and the W-0 Unit manages to liberate the lab and manages to rescue CC, however the operation goes wrong thanks to Shinichirō Tamaki, forcing Ohgi's resistance cell/the W- 0 Unit to hastily evacuate Shinjuku (the original destination point) before the vehicle carrying CC reaches the Ghetto. Later Britannia unveils the seventh generation Knightmare frame: Lancelot, however through military precession and skill the combined Japanese/W-0 counterattack is swift and brutal. The result is a Japanese/W-0 victory, the casualties are: thousands of Japanese civilians dead, unknown numbers of Britannian military dead, dozens of Japanese Resistance Fighters dead, all members of the Britannian G1 bridge staff dead, Clovis la Britannia (executed by Lelouch), Suzaku Kururugi (survives only because of luck. Anyway, After he escapes the destroyed Lancelot Kururugi successfully escapes into the Ghetto) and Bartley Asprius (also executed by Kallen). After disposing of Clovis Kallen, Rebecca Fitzgerald, Chloe Fitzgerald and Raynare MacLellan begins to head back to Ashford (the Base of the W-0 Unit) however They are attacked by several renegade Soviet Red Army troops for unknown reasons. Kallen, Becky, Chloe and Ray manages to fight them, however during the altercation one of the renegades opens up a GroundBridge, then one thing leads to the other causing Becky, Kallen Chloe and Ray to be thrown into the Groundbridge to... =============================================================================== Brief Timeline Ends =============================================================================== Date:_August_10th_2017 Location:_Shinjuku,_Tokyo,_Area_11/Japan =============================================================================== "Geass being used"(example: Lelouch smiles demonically and activates his Geass, "I command all of you to die"/Ddraig speaking to others"(Example: Akeno: "Ddraig what do we do about Suzaku now?"

The putrid smell coming off the corpse's of the dead, regardless of affiliation, liter the streets in the thousands. The sounds of dozens of choppers can be heard off in the distance as I walk the battle torn street with my friends and comrades I can't help, but think of the brutality, malice and so forth that the Japanese have to suffer under, it's just... The horrors such as what happened on this day will hunt me to my grave. The amount of bile that comes to my mouth just thinking about this barbaric display it... I can't help, but clinch my fists in abject disgust at all of... this... I shouldn't even think about these morbid thoughts any more because I feel as though I'm about to throw up! Suddenly Becky clasps a worried hand on my shoulder, "Kallen I know how you feel, however we have to keep moving until we reach the extraction point and-" Suddenly, I hear both Ray and Chloe's voices simultaneously yell, "Get Down!" I'm quickly pushed to the ground as bullets wiz by where the four of us were walking previously. Luckily I'm not to badly damaged, despite how unforgiving the the pavement is. As I look up from where I'm lying, I can see several soldiers pour out of a Groundbridge in front of us. All of them wearing camouflaged uniforms with black berets. Knowing they have us surrounded, one of them, probably the leader gives a few quick orders, "Take them, they'll be useful later!" With that being said the soldiers give a resounding, "Sir! yes sir!" Being surrounded we have no choice, but to surrender. After seeing us not put up a fight, several enemy troops move in to place us into custody, however unfortunately for the hostiles I quickly use Senjutsu first to disrupt the closest tango's ki, then I charge straight ahead, zigzagging as I follow up with another strike in raped succession, thus vaporizing the closest enemy combatants. Ray whom is furthest away, quickly pulls out and throws a frag grenade at the tango's closest to me, which explodes a few seconds later. This of course causes the goon squad to scatter. Both Becky and Chloe take to the skies and begin strafing the tangos to cause a distraction and begin tossing smoke grenades at the enemy. While this is happening both me and Ray use this opportunity to spread our own wings and strafe the enemy, however the enemy has for the most part quickly recovered from our counter-attack and open fire on us. However, some luck is on our side as the smoke grenades take effect, which the four of us take advantage of the situation by puling out our machineguns and opening fire, unfortunately due to the smoke and tense situation as well as myriad of other reasons we miss several tango's. Becky use this chance to contact HQ, "HQ come in we're under heavy attack by unknown forces in Sector 18, send reinforcements immediately, use GPS to track our location signal." I quickly turn on my radio so I can listen in. In about four seconds I can hear a confirmation signal from HQ, "Understood Q4 sending in extraction team in about five minutes, can you hold the tangos off until then?" Becky sighs, "We'll try, however please hurry up because Q1 is with me!" Suddenly I hear a hitched voice, "Understood, roger and over Q4!" The line suddenly goes dead. After this I hear a terrified shout from one of the tangos, "Fuck! lets get out of here, forget President Kōzuki's hybrid bitch! I'm out!" I hear another tango shout, "Damn it Mikhail get back here you fucking coward!" As the smoke starts to clear I can see the a tango open a Groundbridge, however, upon spotting him Ray flies in to kill the terrified tango while the three of us provide cover fire for Ray. Of course the enemy is firing back at us, however, we're able to keep from being shot, but just barely. Anyway, Ray creates a lightspear and manages to successfully impale the terrified tango with it. Ray then throws a few more smoke grenades at the tango's. I suddenly hear a pissed off shout from another tango, "What the fuck is with these fucking smoke grenades! where the flying fuck do these whores get them?!" I hear another angry retort, "These whores are Spetsnaz, the same as us before we joined the Trust! Don't you remember? smoke grenades are standard issue for all Spetsnaz teams and besides, it's all the best equipment for Kōzuki's whore!" I grit my teeth at these pricks for disrespecting my mom. I'm so pissed that I fire another volley of Senjutsu towards where the voices are coming from. I can hear several satisfying screams from inside the smoke cloud. Quickly thanking Kuroka-Sensei for teaching me both Senjutsu and Youjutsu, though I'm no master of ether, I'm still a proficient enough practitioner of both arts to get by in situations like this, however, I'm still an amateur compared to some of the others Kuroka-Sensei teaches. Anyway, back to the mater at hand, despite the low density of the smoke the four of us eventually make it to the Bridge. Unfortunately three tangos blockade our path. I tighten my fists and quickly bark to the others, "Zulu Six!" Once the others receive the code word, the three split up the charge at the enemy in a bounding overwatch position, while simultaneously zigzagging. The tango's open fire, however I use Senjutsu on one the targets, vaporizing him. Barely two seconds later, Becky quickly tosses a frag at another incoming tango, however the tango gets out of thee way just in time as the frag explodes, however, Ray uses this distraction to throw and impale the detracted tango through the heart. Out numbered the last tango panics and begins shooting wildly at us, big mistake because the four of us go into the Crossing the T formation while simultaneously zigzagging to stay out of the enemy's firing range, this makes the tango panic even worse. Taking advantage of this, Ray tosses a lightspear at the threat, he of course dodges it. as soon as he does Becky tosses a frag at him, while I swerve out of sight as I simultaneously send a wave of Senjutsu a the enemy. The Tango is so busy avoiding the grenade that he doesn't see my attack coming until it's to late. My strike hit's him, this causes Ray to start crackling with glee as he is vaporizing from existence. Anyway, since the Groundbridge is still open and the fact that the smoke is clearing, thus allowing the rest of our enemy's to become coordinated again, we are forced to chose ether go through the Bridge or be overwhelmed. I quickly glance over my friends, once our eyes meet we nod at the obvious choice: We chose the former. Anyway, it doesn't take use long to get to the Bridge, as we land I suddenly I hear a faint noise before I'm hit with something in the back of the neck. I then instinctively reach around and pull it out. At close inspection, it's is a tranquilizer dart...oh shit! I suddenly feel woozy as I fall to my knees. Upon seeing collapse to my knees, Ray becomes hysterical and begins yelling, "Get through the Bridge now! Becky, Chloe grab Kallen and get her through, I'll watch your six!-" Unfortunately this is all I hear because I then slip into unconsciousness. =============================================================================== Author's_note: =============================================================================== My background is an alternate historian (people who study, write alternate history etc.) this is who I am, that's where I got my start.

"Ddraig speaking privately to Kallen" "Kallen speaking privately to Ddraig " "Normal Speech" Sacred Gear sounds:[Boost] =============================================================================== The very first thing I remember is being shaken gently awake. A girl's voice suddenly brings me back to consciousness, "Kallen wake up!" Suddenly my eyes snap open. When my vision returns to me I see Ray smiling the most serine of smiles, "Finally awake are you? Well good because that asshole really did a number on you." I stare groggily at Ray, "Were is Becky and Chloe?" Ray nods, "Both of them went to checkout the surrounding location they should be back in a little bit. As for the location, we're currently on a bridge, fortunately no one's discovered us." A wave of confusion spreads across my face as I stare at Ray questioningly. Ray's frown deepens as her fists tighten and tears stream down her face. Within a span of two minutes she regains her composure and sadly nods and then speaks for the third time, "After you fell unconscious from that Tranquillizer dart, both Becky and Chloe managed to drag you through the Groundbridge. After the Bridge closed we found ourselves here on this overpass, but luckily nobody seen the Bridge open and close. If people had then this place would be overrun with cops and perhaps even reporters. Anyway, that was an hour ago," Ray sighs. "Thing is, the three of us have been using magic to successfully conceal our presence from the humans so far. Oh there's one thing you need to know about. While concealed I observed someone talking to Issei. As I listened in I heard her ask him out on a date next Sunday afternoon. That's not the strangest part ether, the girl looked like me when I'm using the Yuuma Amano disguise. Anyway, Becky radioed in a little bit ago and told me a few things that defiantly shocking. All explain about the particulars later, however, I'll tell you what both me and Becky concluded." Ray stops and sighs. "I seems that we're in an alternate universe." My eyes widen, "What?!" Ray grimaces, "Kallen, I didn't want to believe it myself, however, circumstances dictate that our predicament is real. Anyway, Both Becky and Chloe are out collecting more data so we can figure out our next course of action. One more thing, you don't have to worry about my supposed counterpart spotting us because didn't see us because of the ward the three of us cast." I slowly nod unsure on what to properly say next so I decide to say the first thing that comes to mind, "Once Chloe and Becky get back we should find a place to stay. While we're doing that we should keep an eye on Issei to make sure he's safe and besides we haven't anything else to do anyway." Ray nods her head in agreement, "Sounds like a plan-" Suddenly we hear quickened foot steps heading towards us causing Ray to stop talking. I try to rise up, but I'm still a bit shaky, seeing this Ray grabs my hand and helps me maintain my balance while I stand up. Once I have my balance we turn to see Becky and Chloe coming to a stop. Becky is the first to speak, "We're back!" upon seeing me on my feet Becky grins, " Ha! good Kallen welcome back to the land of the conscious. Both me and Chloe found some interesting things out that leads me to believe we're in an alternate universe." Ray nods and tells both Becky and Chloe about what she observed with both her counterpart and Issei's earlier. Once Ray finish's her story both girls exchange dark looks with each other. Chloe nods grimly, "We need to keep an eye on both Issei and Ray's counterpart and the best way to do that is to infiltrate his school." Chloe chuckles. "You two won't believe the School Issei goes to!" Becky just shakes her head and picks up were her sister left off, "Kuoh Academy... wait it gets even more ironic and strange... it's located here in Shinjuku!" Both me and Ray are slack jawed at this bizarre revelation. Ray suddenly begins laughing at the absurdity of all of this, "This has got to be some sick joke!" Ray stops laughing somewhat. "Anyway Becky you said Kuoh Academy right? Well then I think we should infiltrate the school and use it as a quasi HQ. First things first though we should use our individual talents to manipulate our way into the school as students. Luckily we're currently carrying documentation for our version of Kuoh Academy." Chloe clinch's her fist briefly, "Hey guys remember those dudes that attacked us earlier, you know the ones from the Trust. I think those bastards are planning something. I think finding out what their planning should be our top priority." I nod in agreement, "Yah, we should make preparations as soon as possible so we can deal with them. Anyway, we were told of those traitors were going to try something during Shinjuku. "My face morphs into a feral snarl at the very thought of those pricks insulting mom! "Those vermin think that if they can travel to other universes then they can stay on step ahead of the government! The Trust have been known to kidnap Soviet troops in order to get info, to extort, threaten, etc. and the fact that my mom's the current President of the USSR isn't lost on them ether." I become even angrier the more I think about the Trust, "Anyway, thanks to those fuckers we're trapped in this god forsaken universe with nothing, but the clothes on our backs and each other. My point is we have to move and fast. We should use our natural abilities in conjunction with the documentation we already have," I smirk. "A couple of memory rewrites and some forged school credentials and viola instant Kuoh Academy students!" Becky's face suddenly contorts into deep contemplation, "Several major problems Kallen: Food, shelter and a job. how are we going to settle these things?" Becky asks good questions which causes my own mind to sink into contemplation before I answer, "For starts we'll use our powers to get into Kuoh then figure out what to do from there. True its not much to go on, but what other options do we have? Anyway, we should get started." The others just nod in agreement after which Becky decides to add something, "While we're headed to Kuoh both me and Chloe will fill you guys in on what we've learned so far. One Day later... =============================================================================== Date: August 11th 2017 Location: Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan Kuoh Academy: History Class =============================================================================== Well it took us what was left of all day yesterday and most of today, but we finally did it! we have finally infiltrated Kuoh. It was a fucking bitch of a task and a daunting one to the extreme, but its worth it. Even after turning the school principle's mind into silly putty after me and Ray both mind-raped her into the damned stone age in order for our plans to commence. Anyway, it's now after class and the four of us are getting up from our seats my mind suddenly returns back to our introductions to the class. I introduced myself as Kallen Kōzuki because nobody knows who I am nor who my mom is. Anyway, Both Becky and Chloe are using their actual names while Ray goes under Raynare McClain because it would be detrimental to use the name Yuuma Amano as Issei would automatically see this as a red flag. Anyway, I snap my mind back to the present and decide to initiate the next part of my plan which is to befriend Issei himself. Because of mind-raping the principle my desk is right beside Issei's so all I have to do is talk to him. A plan suddenly comes to mind so as I go to leave my desk, I 'accidently' bump into Issei silently smirking in triumph, "Sorry about that I wasn't watching were I was going." "Issei looks sheepishly at me as his face goes as red as my hair, "Don't worry about I-" Suddenly I hear a girl angry shout, Sexual harasser! you dare accost a girl-" I know where this is going because unfortunately this Issei is obviously just as much of a pervert as the one from my universe judging from the girl's reaction. I decide to intervene on Issei's behalf, "Please leave him alone! Issei didn't do anything to me because I was the one to run into him." I can hear sudden gasps of shock from my classmates as the same girl that jumped to conclusions about Issei speaks again, "How could you defend this pervert! This freak-" I shake my head, "It was an accident as well as my fault!" I suddenly turn sharply and march up to the girl and point a accusatory finger at her chest, my eyes turn rapidly cold and steely as both our eyes lock, we then stare directly into each other. "Now then are you calling me a liar? if so you had better look me directly into my eyes and say it because I am no liar. Do we understand each other!" The girl simultaneously gulps while visibly shivering under my cold steely gaze. The girl barely stutters out, "Under...stood...I...I apologize for... jumping to conclusions!" I both suddenly and sharply turn around before the girl can utter another word and walk towards Issei. Issei smiles weakly at me and mumbles, "Thanks..." "I return Issei's smile and shake his hand once I reach him, "Kallen... Kallen Kōzuki its a pleasure to meet you. You can use my first name if you want." Issei weak smile suddenly turns into a genuine one, "Issei Hyoudou, same here Kallen." I just remember something, "Issei I would like you to meet some friend's of mine," With That being said, I give the signal for Becky, Chloe and Ray to approach. Once my signal is received, the girls breakthrough the growing crowd of people and stand in front of me and Issei. Each of my friends nod their heads as I say their names. " this is Rebecca 'Becky' Abigail Fitzgerald, Chloe Annabelle Fitzgerald and my girlfriend Raynare McClain." The entire crowd gasps in shock. The girl that was rude with Issei earlier begins spluttering and points her finger at both me and Ray, "You mean you two are together?!" I nod as both me and Ray hold each others hands affectionately, "Yes we're a couple what's it to you?" The girl still wide eyed, blushes profusely, "Nothing it's just I'm surprised that's all!" I sigh and decide to send this conversation in a different direction, " By the way what's your name?" The girl blushes even deeper, "Arisu Murayama, anyway," Murayama suddenly grabs a girl by the hand and introduces us. "This is my best friend Kaede Katase." I decide to bury the hatchet and shake both their hands, "Pleasure. Anyway, I think its best we get to our next class." Everyone then nods in agreement. Five minutes later... =============================================================================== Location: Kuoh Academy: The Hallway Outside History Class =============================================================================== A single epiphany dawns on me, it is so profound that I can't believe I never thought of this before now. With this in mind, I quicken my footsteps, Ray whom is beside me, follows suit. In just a few seconds we reach Becky and Chloe. This movement catch's both girls attention. This causes them to stop and turn around to look at both me and Ray quizzically. I smirk, "You know, Issei peeks at the Kendo club right?" Both nod, causing my smirk deepen, "I think we should head to his favorite spot in order to-" Suddenly I here a audible gasp, causing me to spin around to see a wide eyed Akeno Himejima staring at me, her lips trembling, her body begins shaking as tears start pouring from her eyes. Choking on her own voice, she barely spits out," K-Ka-Kallen?" With these words I back away, shocked, "I sorry who are you?" Akeno eyes widen and with a sob, she suddenly turns around and bolts the other way as tears stream down her eyes. My only thought is what the fuck? Suddenly I feel someone tug on my sleeve, I turn to see a very shocked and confused Ray. Ray quickly lowers her voice to a whisper, "I..I... think this version of Akeno must know your counterpart... you know... from this universe." Three hour later... =============================================================================== Location: Kuoh Academy: Outside: Behind the Girls locker Room Window =============================================================================== Finally we get some time to ourselves it may be for a half-hour, but-" Suddenly Becky interrupts my thoughts, "This is boring!" I sigh, "Becky your impatience and-" I'm interrupted again by several shouts, I quickly snap my head towards the commotion and see Issei and two other boys running away from members of the kendo club. Suddenly I hear a snort a few feet from me, I look over and see Akeno, her reaction from earlier still fresh in my mind. Suddenly, Ray's voice from earlier still resonates in my mind: "I..I... think this version of Akeno must know your counterpart... you know... from this universe." Anyway, Akeno begins giggling while simultaneously shaking her head, "So typical of those three!" Okay what the hell? What's with the personality shift? All I can think at the moment is that Akeno is trying desperately to hold on to her sanity. Anyway, I quirk my eyebrow questioningly. upon seeing my facial expression Akeno giggles again, "Oh don't mind me, I just can't help it! Those three are a riot! By the way my name is Akeno Himejima." I nod then walk up to Akeno and shake her hand, "Kallen Kōzuki, it's a pleasure to meet you. By the way who are the two boys with Issei?" Akeno eyes, go wide as dinner plates, however, despite this she hesitantly sniggers, "Those two are Kenji Matsuda, most girls call him the 'Perverted Baldy' or the 'Sexual Harassment Paparazzi' and Koizumi Motohama, girls hate him more because he's known as the 'Perverted Glasses' or the 'Three Sizes Scouter.' Anyway, those two are also known as M&M. Akeno is defiantly trying to maintain her sanity. Anyway, I simply smirk and shake my head muttering, "Something's never change!" Taken aback for a moment, Akeno growls, "What does that mean?" Shit she heard! I have to deflect somehow, "No.. Nothing it's just-" "Akeno looks peeved, "No it's not just nothing because the look on your face says otherwise, so spill!" I'm livid with myself, how could I be so stupid and slip up like this! I have to say something to get away, "Please just drop it-" Akeno just narrows her eyes as the last shreds of her sanity suddenly shatters, "No I won't drop it, so spill Kallen! I thought you died seven years ago!... why did you abandon me?! I thought that... I seen both you and my- " I narrow my own eyes cutting her off, "Who do you think you are to order me? Just because your Baraquiel and Shuri's daughter doesn't give you the right to tell me what to do!" Akeno stumbles back both shocked a terrified, "H...h...how do... how.. did you? only the real Kallen would know-" I sigh as I cut her off again, "Look I never... I don't care that your half- Human-Half-Fallen angel! I care about you! ever since I saved both your mother and father seven years ago from being murdered!" Akeno's eyes bulge from their sockets as she gasps, "Mom.. is... alive?! How?!" I'm still pissed, "Well of course Shuri is still alive! I talked to her just yesterday-" Suddenly a hand grabs my shoulder, I didn't hear anyone behind me because of both me and Akeno's argument, "Kallen shut up let's go now!" I quickly turn around and see Ray with a livid expression. Upon seeing her face I simple nod, then we both turn and run to get away from a distraught Akeno. Three minutes later... =============================================================================== Location: Kuoh Academy: By The Science Lab, Outdoors =============================================================================== We finally got out of that situation with Akeno and- WACK WACK WACK Both me and Ray come to a halt for a second then turn to both the sounds of someone being pummelled to death as well as the screams of mercy. My first thoughts automatically go to Issei. Anyway, we exchange glances for a brief second and wince at the howls of pain. We nod and simultaneously sigh in silent agreement that enough is enough. With the decision made, the both of us then sprint off in order to go rescue Issei from his fate. I takes us awhile, but once we reach were all the racket is coming from, we see Issei on the ground with the entire Kendo club surrounding him. I sigh at Issei's predicament thinking of how much of an idiot he is. However, I need to establish a relationship... well not a romantic one, Issei maybe my best friend... well the one from my universe anyway, but I don't think of him in that way. Anyway I decide to use this as an opening to not only save his ass, but to also to get Issei to trust me. So I run up to the gang of girls and quickly weave in between them. Eventually, I manage to force my way through the crowd as I make my way towards Issei. As soon as I'm in front of him, I briefly both smirk and wink at him, then turn to face the hoard of pissed off amazons including their leaders Murayama and Katase, "Could you girls lay off Issei! he may deserve the beating, but instead of kicking the shit out of him all the time, did you ever think of actually teaching him how not to treat girls. What I mean is why don't you first separate him from both Matsuda and Motohama then without M&M's constant influence, you can for the most part stay on his ass until you purge Issei of his perverseness! Basically reward him for when he isn't being a total douchebag and when he is well... you know what to do. Hey it's the only thing I can think of off the top of my head!" Katase rises her eyebrow, "Like a dog?" I shrug, "Whatever floats your boat. Anyway, Don't worry girls I'll handle things from here." Murayama blush's crimson and madly, the more she's in my presence, "You sure Kallen?" I nod, "Of course Murayama ." Murayama bush's even deeper, "Alright then and by the way Kallen, you can call me by my first name." I nod and decide to mess with Murayama's head a bit and purr, "Sure Arisu." I smirk in triumph. I swear that I briefly seen blood coming from Arisu's nose. Anyway, in all seriousness my plan is still working. I've got to thank being around Lelouch for the last eight years because I picked up a few of Lelouch's tricks, such as planning a few steps ahead and having back up plans in place when or if the first one fails miserably. Originally I didn't like chess, however, as I spent time with Lelouch I came to realize that in order to destroy Britannia as well as survive in life, I needed to learn Lelouch's favorite pastime. Especially after what happened in Japan seven years ago. Well, enough monologuing because there's more important things to worry about such as the current situation with Issei. Anyway, back to reality, everyone from the Kendo Club loses interest with us since Issei's beating session is over for now. Except for both Murayama and Katase, whom stay for some reason. I turn around and sigh then walk over to Issei, "Issei you've got to stop with all of this perverted shit. I know of your enthusiasm with woman's bodies, but it has and will continue to be a further detriment to you health and well being. Listen if you ever need help with anything, excluding peeping on girls or any thing similar, then you can come directly to me and I'll do whatever I can to help you. I give you my word of honor. I'm your friend or at the very least I would like to be anyway, so friends?" I then proceed to help Issei up and then we look each other in the eye's. While looking directly into my eyes Issei try's to detect any sort of lies, deception, bullshit, etc. When he finds none Issei then simply nods and shakes my hand, "Friends." Several hours later, after school ends... =============================================================================== Location: Kuoh Academy: School Entrance, Indoors =============================================================================== The Good news is that we managed to get a three story apartment not far from school due to us using our powers on the apartment's owner, however the bad news is that we still don't have a job to pay for living expenses including the rent. Suddenly I hear rapid footsteps behind me causing me to turn and spot Yuuto Kiba rushing up to me. Once Yuuto knows I have his attention he gives me a charming smile, "Your Kallen Kōzuki right? I've come on behalf of Rias Gremory. She would like to meet you and your friends." I raise an eyebrow, "Really now. Where Would Miss Gremory like to meet us?" I can clearly see Yuuto's on edge, despite his fake smile because of his current defensive posture. However, since were in public he doesn't do anything overly hostile to us, so the only thing he can do is nod, "President wants you guys to meet her at the Occult Research Club, it's in the old school building." I sigh, "As much as I would like to go unfortunately we have prior engagements that require our attention so I apologize, but I must decline Miss Gremory invitation." This causes several people in the hallway to gasp in shock. Anyway, Yuuto despite the pleasant façade is livid, "I really must insist that-" I quickly silence him with my hand causing several people in the hallway to gasp again, "I'm sorry, but I must refuse both you and Miss Gremory's invitation, good day to you sir." I quickly turn around and walkaway, leaving a fuming Yuuto and the assembled crowd gaping like fish at our exchange. A hand suddenly lands on my shoulder. I'm surprised because during both my and Yuuto's heated exchange I didn't even see nor pay attention to anyone behind me. Anyway, I stop and turn around to see Issei staring at me in absolute shock however, he quickly regains his composure and sighs obviously worried about something, "Kallen can we talk in privet if that's alright with you?" I nod, "Sure Issei where did you want to meet?" I sigh. "Actually it doesn't matter lead the way." Ten minutes later... =============================================================================== Location: Kuoh Academy: Outdoors, near the girl's Kendo Club building =============================================================================== "So Issei what did you want to talk about?" Issei folds his arms, "Kallen I need you help. A girl asked me to be her boyfriend yesterday. We're supposed to go out on our first date this Sunday, however I don't know the first thing about dating. Could both you and Ray teach me about dating girls so I don't screw up?" My mind begins to contemplate the pros and cons of Issei's request and then I make my decision, "Of course I'll help. Ray?" Ray simply nods, "I'll help, however both me and Kallen have a lot of work ahead of us if we're going to make you at least presentable for next Sunday." Good now everything's all set, now all I have to do is worry about Akeno, Rias and the others in their peerage. =============================================================================== Author's_Notes: =============================================================================== Kenji Matsuda, Koizumi Motohama, Kaede Katase and Arisu Murayama aren't OC's they are actually the Matsuda, Motohama, Katase and Murayama from DXD canon. I just gave Matsuda, Motohama, Katase and Murayama first names. =============================================================================== Don't worry, Kallen will come across Britannia again as well as Suzaku in future chapters (meaning (spoiler alert) Britannia, with the help of the Trust (the organization I briefly mentioned) will slowly, but surely invade the current universe later in future chapters). Anyway, so things don't become confusing I will designate the universe Kallen's in now as the 'Shattered Glass Universe' while Kallen's native universe (The universe depicted in The Red Dragoness's Timeline (Chapter 2) as the 'Soviet Universe.' =============================================================================== There's a legitimate reason why Murayama is blushing when in Kallen's prescience. The reason will be fully explained in the next chapter. =============================================================================== Kallen's grandparent's (her father's parents): Father: Human. Mother: Nekomata. ***** Meetings and Revelations ***** Chapter Notes See the end of the chapter for notes Four seconds after both Kallen and Ray agrees to help Issei with 'Shattered Glass Raynare' =============================================================================== Date: August 11th 2017 Location: Kuoh Academy: Outdoors, near the girl's Kendo Club building 'Shattered Glass Universe' =============================================================================== "Geass being used"(example: Lelouch smiles demonically and activates his Geass, "I command all of you to die"/Ddraig speaking to others"(Example: Akeno: "Ddraig what do we do about Suzaku now?" Ddraig: "I don't know Akeno."/"Albion talking"(Example:Albion: "Stand down immediately!"Kallen: "Not a chance Albion!") "Ddraig speaking privately to Kallen" "Kallen speaking privately to Ddraig " "Normal Speech" Sacred Gear sounds:[Boost] =============================================================================== Now this is an interesting predicament. Issei Hyoudou, one of the biggest perverts on this side of the Pacific Ocean is asking me how to date a girl. I was originally hoping he would ask for our help, however, to actually hear the words from Issei's lips is a 'wow' moment of epic proportions. Anyway, this amazing monumental moment absolutely can't be passed up because the four of us now have a chance to hopefully turn Issei away from his perversions and make him into a better human being. Anyway, I really should stop monologuing and get back to the present situation at hand. So I quickly snap my mind back to our current situation, while smirking at this golden opportunity we find ourselves in. I can see Issei staring at me quizzically at my odd expression, so I decide to elaborate, "Sorry, I'm happy that you have finally come to your senses and are actually planning to a least try to make an effort to treat woman like actual people rather than fixtures in a damn porno magazine!" Issei is taken aback, "Kallen I... please.." I shrug, "It doesn't matter. Anyway, The first thing we should do is set up a mock date in order to prepare you for your actual date. What I mean to say is I'll go out with you on this 'date' while Ray will come with us to document our 'date' in order to track your progress. We will start today and will continue until Sunday morning, so I suggest you go home and freshen up." Issei nods, "I understand Kallen, I did come to both you and Ray with my problem." Issei sighs and mumbles. "I may be a hopeless pervert, however I'm not stupid, despite what others may think of me." I simply blink at this admission, "Issei your not a bad person at all, it's just that you have some unsavory traits. Look I said I would help and I will. I don't break my word once I give it and I under no circumstances feel obligated to help you after giving you my word. Thing is Issei, if I never had any intentions in helping you then I would have flat out refused to help you to your face." Issei gives my a sad smile, "Truth is Kallen I'm glad I met you. Anyway, I know your wondering why I'm not acting like a pervert to both you and Ray, despite my reputation. Truth is, I knew before I asked this favor that I would have to tone my nature down, if I even had of hope of asking. Actually the only reason I asked you Kallen was because you are the only person in this school even willing to help me out in my situation." I give Issei a genuine smile, "I know of your reputation Issei and frankly I don't care about it. What I do care about is your willingness to try to be a better person, that is what's important to me. Anyway, we should get started, Issei since we don't know were you live could you take us there. After which, we'll wait for you to get cleaned up." Issei suddenly falls into deep contemplation and after five minutes he makes his decision, "Very well follow me." One hour later... =============================================================================== Location: Shinjuku, Tokyo Issei's House =============================================================================== I never thought Issei would invite me nor Ray to his house. This apprehensive thought his very disconcerting to me because of my uncertainty of how Issei's parent's will act towards us. Now I know how his counterpart's parent's will act in seeing two strange girls with him, however, I've no clue how these people will act toward us. They could be okay with us or the could... well I don't know what their reactions will be. For better or for worse we'll find out soon enough. The discontent at this uncertainty gives me a very queasy feeling in my stomach that won't go away, So I have to say something to at least alleviate my anxiety. However, I can't get the necessary words out of my mouth because for me, recent events have caused my anxiety to skyrocket especially now since we're at the front door. Anyway, sighing I finally collect myself, and ask the primary question weighing on my mind, "Issei do you think this a good idea, we could just stay outside and wait for you to freshen up." Issei just shakes his head, "Don't worry about it Kallen." I nod, "Very well then." After this, Issei opens the door all the while inviting us into his home. It takes us a bit, however, as both me and Ray enter the house, Issei announces, "Mom, dad. I'm home and I've brought two friends home from school." With this statement, my anxiety increases even worse especially since we hear Issei's mom reply, "Welcome home dear, you brought Matsuda and Motohama again?" Shaking his head Issei dully reply's, "No mom, not this time." Once Issei says this, My worry begins to worsen as we make our way from the front entrance to the living room. As we approach the living room my heart races, my body temperature rises as I start to perpetrate and my hands begin to feel clammy at the very thought to Issei's parent's reactions. Anyway, once we reach the living room, I can see his parent's sitting down watching TV. I Upon hearing our footsteps, Issei's mom turns towards us and as soon as she see's me and Ray, her eyes budge as she gasps for breath for a brief second before yelping, "Akihiko! Issei's brought two girls home!" Issei's father suddenly springs out of his chair excitedly, "Unbelievable Kagome, our son has finally done it! he-" Issei looks exasperated, "Mom! dad! it's not what you think! Their just here to help me with something important!" Issei's mom is still giddy, "Issei you've got to tell us about your new friends!" I can see Issei going redder by the minute as he barely gets out his next words, "Please ... just drop it would you guys!" I sigh and decide that even if its not necessarily a good idea to tell Issei's parents about his current predicament, however it would be even worse if we not only deceived them, but we're found out as well. Also merely telling Issei and then have him hide things from his family is also a bad idea. Such things leave a bad taste in my mouth. Besides this will eventually play directly into my future plans anyway, "Mrs. Hyoudou, Issei asked us to help him out with a girl that asked him out on a date, so both Ray and me promised to teach him what the can and can not's of dating." Both of Issei parents gasp sharp sharply as both simultaneously place their hands too their chests. After a few minutes, Issei's mom is the first to recover, "Issei you've finally did it!" Jumping for joy Issei's father becomes ecstatic, "Congratulations son!" Smiling cheerfully, Issei's mom turn's her attention towards me, "So my son want's help from the two of you?" I nod, "Yes, Issei is supposed to go this Sunday so it was decided that in order to teach him about dating, I would go out on a mock date with him until Sunday." Issei's father laughs, "By 'teach' you mean to say, train Issei not to screw up?" All I can think is wow, these people are exactly like Issei's parents from my universe. I close my eyes, and sigh, "I guess you could say that however, at least he's willing to learn." Issei's mom is grinning like a mad woman, "Well since you girls are Issei's friend's and your also trying to help him, would you perhaps like to stay for dinner?" I'm actually taken aback at this by proclamation, however before I decide on what to next I briefly glance at Ray, whom nods in silent agreement. Once I see Ray give her consent I decide to give Mrs. Hyoudou her answer, "Of course Mrs. Hyoudou we would be happy to stay." Thirty-seven minutes later... =============================================================================== Location: Shinjuku, Tokyo Issei's House: Kitchen =============================================================================== Finally now that everyone's at the dinner table the next phase of my plan can commence. As I begin eating the delicious meal prepared for us, my thoughts turn back to when we initially agreed to stay for dinner. I remember Issei's mom protesting that since we're both guests me and Ray don't need to help prepare the food. However, both of us politely disagreed with her, pointing out that things would go faster if we helped. Defeated, Issei's mom ultimately allows us to help. Anyway, I snap my mind back to the present situation. I softly smile because the next part of my plan is going to be possibly a very idiotic move, but it's necessary for later, so I close my eyes briefly, sighing at the thought of what's to come. However Issei's mom easily catches me sighing, her expression slides into a worried look, "Kallen what's wrong?" Great, I did it again! just like with Akeno. I suddenly realise that because of everything that's happened I'm still out of sorts with things. With that being said, I decide to reveal a few things, "A few things actually, however, I'm not sure you guys will believe me." I sigh. "What I'm about to tell you guys may seem farfetched, however, it's the truth. I'll even show you proof." I then stand up and move to the middle of the room. Once I'm sure I won't knock things fling I proceed to show Issei and his parents my true form. To say that their collectively shocked would be the understatement of the century. However before anyone can say anything, I hold up my hand, " The thing is guys I'm a hybrid: my mother is a fallen angel while my father is half human/half Nekomata, a Nekoshou to be exact. To be precise my father's dad is a pure blooded human while his mother is a Nekoshou, that's a rare breed of Nekomata." I stop taking to give both Issei and his parents time to breathe and take all of this in. I can see the looks of absolute shock on each of their faces. Despite his shock, Issei is the first to speak, "Kallen... why...are you telling us this?" I deadpan, "Because Issei, frankly put, you've been targeted by several supernatural factions. In fact the girl that asked you out is a fallen angel and-" Suddenly Issei's mom eyes bulge, "WHAT!? my son is targeted!?" I nod, "Yes Mrs. Hyoudou, Issei has and unfortunately both me and Ray have no idea why. However, That's why we're here in the first place. I know you three have no reason to believe us however, the truth is the both of us are here to protect Issei." Issei's father nods, "Your right we don't have a real reason but, I for one will give you girls one chance to prove yourselves to us only because you we're honest from the start. This chance wouldn't have been given to you both at all if you tried to deceive us one iota." I nod my head in agreement, " That's why I told you the truth as well as gave you three the proof to support my claims." After this both me and Ray then proceed to explain about the supernatural, especially about the three biblical factions, a process that takes us three hours to explain, of course it helps that Ray shows her true form. Both me and Ray despite our extreme apprehension also explain that we're from an alternate universe, something that really shocks the three Hyoudous further. After the three hour long explanation the three Hyoudous are in obvious denial. Issei decides to brake the silence, "This is unbelievable to think that alternate universes actually exist it' just..." I nod and finish Issei's sentence, "Unbelievable. I know, however, your probably wondering why both me and Ray are even telling you about any of this. The three Hyoudous merely nod while still in shock. "The absolute truth is I don't want to see a friend possibly die. Even if we don't really know each other Issei, thing is, I not only know your counterpart, but he's also my best friend since childhood. Also since we spent time together, I've come to realize that you are a good person just like your counterpart. As such, I don't want anything bad to happen to you that's why we're telling you guys. Also, you need to know that Rias Gremory as well as Sona Sitri, you will know her as Souna Shitori, has taken an interest in you." Issei does a double take, however I ignore him and continue. "The reason being is you have a Sacred Gear." The three Hyoudous gasp, however, I hold up my hand, quieting them. "However nether me nor Ray know what Sacred Gear you possess." Issei's father gains at least some of this completion, "So that's why these people are targeting my son. Kallen could you tell what your opinion as to why Issei's been targeted? and who are Rias Gremory and Sona Sitri?" My mouth thins into a line before I respond, "Rias Gremory is the younger sister of Sirzechs Lucifer while Sona Sitri is the younger sister of Serafall Leviathan. And as for Issei being targeted, it's due to his Sacred Gear like I said, after that I have no clue." All three Hyoudous eyes bulge as their mouths hang agape in unison. Because of Hyoudous reactions, Ray takes over for me, "There's something else you guys need to be aware of." Ray suddenly morphs into her Yuuma disguise, causing Issei to nearly have a heart attack. Not missing a beat Ray continues, "Issei, the girl who asked you out is my counterpart from this universe and is using the human disguise you see me using now. Me, Kallen and two other girls you haven't meet yet are currently looking into the matter. Also-" Suddenly we hear the door bell ring, causing the three Hyoudous to be break out of their collective trance. Mr. Hyoudou suddenly stands up, "I'll go see who that is." With that being said, Mr. Hyoudou leaves the kitchen and after a few minutes pass I hear several voices, after which Mr. Hyoudou comes back into the kitchen with Chloe, Becky, Katase and Murayama. This is an unexpected development, I need to proceed with caution. Anyway, Becky, quirking her eyebrow decides to break the silence, "From the looks of things something major must have been revealed. Question what was it?" I smirk, "The truth." Becky merely gives a curt nod before replying, "Well then the cat's now out of the bag I guess. Well anyway, we should formally introduce ourselves to Issei and his parents. My name is Rebecca Abigail Fitzgerald and this-" pointing to Chloe. "Is my elder sister, Chloe Annabelle Fitzgerald." Both sisters then proceed to shake the three Hyoudou's hands. With a genuinely friendly smile, Becky continues, "As I was saying before, both me and Chloe told Katase and Murayama everything as well. They didn't believe us at first, however, after giving them undeniable proof really helps. I know it's a gamble, however, we wouldn't have said anything if ether of them proved untrustworthy. Anyway, Kallen, Murayama as something to tell you, we would have waited till later, but since truths are being revealed well you get the picture." Murayama nods, "Kallen, the thing is I knew your counterpart, although I managed to keep it quiet better than Akeno. The reason is you were murdered in this universe." This shocks all of us excluding Katase, Becky and Chloe to say the least. Anyway, Murayama continues, "When I first saw you I was shocked to the core, however, as I observed you before we actually met I realized something was off. Anyway, after meeting you and continued to observe you I realized that you aren't the Kallen I know. So I kept my opinions to myself. Six hours ago both me and Kaede confronted both Chloe and Becky here. It took a bit of convincing, but they finally told use everything. Thing is Kallen your counterpart and I were childhood friends." Suddenly Becky coughs causing Murayama to look sheepishly at us before continuing, "The truth is nobody could find your counterpart's murderers despite everything." Murayama sighs, then continues, "The only thing that is known is the fact that your counterpart died along with Akeno's mother seven years ago at the Himejima Shrine." My eyes widen in absolute shock as my left hand goes to my mouth, "So...I'm.. dead..." Ray gasps as tears flow out of her eyes both sobbing and mumbling, "No, Kallen, no!" Shaking her head, Mrs. Hyoudou gives a soft sad smile, "You truly are good people." I smile, "Thank you Mrs. Hyoudou. Now we should figure out how we're going to handle Ray's counterpart." Mr. Hyoudou nods grimly, "True, but first one thing has been bothering me since you first told us about all of this. Do you have a place to stay? what about jobs?" I sigh and explain about our mission in Shinjuku in my universe, the events surrounding our arrival in this universe, how me, Ray, Becky and Chloe got our apartment, or predicament with joblessness as well as how we got into Kuoh, basically everything. After the explanation Mr. Hyoudou says the last thing none of us in the room ever expected him to say... =============================================================================== Author's_notes: =============================================================================== Mr. Hyoudou's response as well as the strategy in dealing with'Shattered Glass Raynare'will be covered in the next chapter as a flashback. =============================================================================== 'Shattered Glass Raynare' refers to the Raynare born in the Shattered Glass Universe. This is done so there's no confusion between the Raynare's of both universes. =============================================================================== Next chapter will deal with the date between 'Shattered Glass Raynare' and Issei. Let's just say Issei won't be dying at the hands of his deranged girlfriend anytime soon and Rias will be getting an earful from everyone's favorite pervert for allowing his crazy girlfriend to kill him. =============================================================================== True I'm not good at foreshadowing, however this chapter is necessary for what's to come. Don't worry about Kallen being too honest with everyone because this event sets the stage for the events to come. Hint: This chapter foreshadows several event's for the next few chapters (especially the next one). Chapter End Notes The next chapter will have a lemon. Spoiler Alert: Both Milly Ashford and Shirley Fenette will make their official debut next chapter and will join in on the lemon/orgy with Kallen (however, the Milly Ashford and Shirley Fenette that will appear in this story will be/is the 'Shattered Glass' versions of their 'Soviet Universe' counterparts).
