Side Stories 09 - Falling Through A Wormhole Part 4

"Onii-chan, how do you know?"

"I have magic eyes that show me where–"

"It doesn't work that way. You told us that already."

"Fine. I may or may not visited your room once..."

"And?"

"Well, I was looking for something but..."

"You accidentally found my hidden stash?"

"Yeah?"

"In the first place, what's the thing you were looking for?"

"I'd rather not say..."

"Is it something perverted?"

"It's something perverted."

"Umm... Can I ask a question?" I forgot Issei was with us.

"Yeah?"

"How did you tell mom and dad exactly?"

"I showed them my wings." I replied.

"Huh?"

"I'm a Fallen Angel actually. I just showed them my wings."

"You think that would work for me?"

"I'm sure they would. Even though you're, well, perverted, they still love you because you're their only child... For the past 17 years, before Asia came."

"Thanks."

"It's nothing. We're here."

"Okay, you can do this Issei." Issei reassured himself.

*KACHAK!*

"Mom? Dad?"

"Oh, you're early today Issei?"

"Yeah, something happened."

"Are those your friends?"

"Thank you for being friends with him, even though he's... A bit problematic." Kaa-san bowed to us. I'm not gonna lie, it was weird.

"Mom!"

"We're not really his friends..." I reply. We just met and were basically his siblings. Not that we can't become his friends though.

"Oh?" Kaa-san became a bit disheartened...

"Yet." I followed up. It was sad seeing Kaa-san sad. Made me remember what I did all those years ago.

"Why is that?" Tou-san asked.

"I have something to say or show first." Issei stepped up.

"Hmm?" "Issei?"

"I'm a devil." Then Issei's wings came out of his back.

~°~°~°~

"And that's how I became a devil."

"Are you alright, Issei? No wounds whatsoever?" Kaa-san asked, while examining Issei from front to back.

"I'm fine. My wounds all healed up!"

"Can I ask the two of you something?" Tou-san asked.

"What is it?" It's time for us both to explain our selves huh?

"Who are you two? The girl beside you looks a bit like Issei. So again, who are you two?" I understand though. Your son came home with a girl that looks similar to him. Of course I would ask as well.

"Issei told you that magic exists right?"

Kaa-san and Tou-san nodded.

"You see, we're from another world or universe. Our world is similar to this world. This is the perfect moment to introduce ourselves. My name is Kazumi. Hyoudou Kazumi."

"Mine is Hyoudou Itsuki. Our parents are Hyoudou Gorou and Hyoudou Miki."

"What that means you two are our children?"

"We are." Itsuki nodded.

"But you don't look similar to us? Are you adopted? Sorry if I sounded rude." That question was directed at me.

"No need to apologize. To answer your question, I am. Kaa-san and Tou-san said that they found me in their doorstep at night, a month before Itsuki was born."

"You're same age as Issei?"

"Yeah I'm 17."

"Can you tell us how your lives went?" I guess they're curious?

"Sure. Let's start when we were both kids."

~°~°~°~

Rias2 POV

I heard some stories about Akeno's mom from herself but to meet her in person is quite something.

Still, I was surprised about what happened earlier. A girl version of Issei appears in our club room and then Yuuma Himejima who looks and has the same name as Raynare's fake persona.

"Honey, I know you can't forgive your father, I would too if you died instead of me but remember your father also lost your mother."

"I know mom... But."

"But you're feeling guilty because you blamed him?"

Akeno nodded. They were cooking earlier but now it turned into Akeno's therapy.

"Is he still alive?"

"Yes."

"You and your mom was the only person your father loved, I'm surprised he hasn't taken his life yet. Have you met him yet?" Akeno's mom said.

"I haven't."

"Try your best alright? Send him a letter or talk to him. You're not the only one hurting from your mom's death."

"I understand. Thank you, mom. I love you." Akeno cried again.

"I love you as well, come here." Shuri-san hugged her daughter.

It seemed that we aren't going back anytime soon...

Originally, it was meant to be a cookoff but let's have a therapy session. Who knows, Original DXD may have a holy lightning user even before the rating game against Riser.
