Akeno's Decision

POV (Akeno)

Akeno: Mom I am really scared. Who are these people?? Where is father??

Shuri: Don't worry dear I won't let anything happen to you….

Assasins: She is the daughter of a filthy fallen, being her daughter is crime in itself. Don't worry we will 1st kill your daughter infront of you, then only I will kill you.

Akeno:<Where is father now?? They came to kill me because I am his daughter?? They will also kill mother for marrying him?? Father please come now or I will never forgive you>

After saying that he was about to attack then suddenly a massive pressure fell on them and they heard someone cold voice from behind them.

???: I dare you to even lay a finger on them.

Akeno:<What is Sparda doing here?? Did he came to save us??>

I was about to speak to him but he suddenly came between us and the bad people. He turned towards us he was smiling but what were those eyes they were rotating. What is happening I cannot control my body, seeing my mother's expression she was also facing the same problem. We already started leaving the compound but I don't want to leave him alone.

I cannot stop we were reaching the forest we soon entered the forest and keep going deep inside. I then saw two silhouettes infront of us, getting closer it was clear, a woman wearing maid outfit and silver hair was standing there with a small girl of my age. She had red crimson hair and had blue green eyes. The maid turned towards us.

???: Who are you??

Shuri: We need help. We were attacked.

I was about to ask them the same thing but my mother beat me to it. Then the small girl turned towards me and asked

???: Hello my name is Rias Gremory. Will you become my queen??

Akeno: My friend is left behind please help him I am ready to become your queen or whatever.

I didn't knew what she meant by me becoming her queen but if she helps me save him. I don't care if I have to become her queen.

Shuri: Do you even know what she meant by that??

Akeno: I don't care he came to save us and we left him behind. I will do everything I can.

???: My name is Grafiya Lucifage do you mind us showing which was your home is??

My mother didn't say anything and started to show them the way. I guess she also wanted to save him. We soon reached our house or what was left of it. I started crying the house had burnt down completely and we don't know if he survived or not. The lady named Grafiya started to check if there were any survivors or not.

I was still holding a little bit of hope but it also shattered when she shook her head in denial. Both me and my mother were crying. Rias was also sad seeing us cry. I was still crying I looked towards Rias.

Akeno: What did you meant by becoming your queen??

Rias: I am a devil. I am a high class devil from house of Gremory of the 72 pillars of the Underworld. We have peerage system representing chess pieces. I want you to become my queen??

Akeno: If I agree to become your queen you need to protect my mother.

Shuri: Akeno what are you saying?? Are you willing to become a devil??

Akeno: All this time I was hoping for father to return but when we were attacked where was he?? I don't want to be powerless anymore.

My mother seemed to be thinking something then she sighed and nodded her head. Looks like Sparda's death has also affected her.

Akeno: Make me your queen but promise to protect my mother.

POV (Narrator)

Then Rias took out her queen piece and started the ceremony. After making Akeno her queen they all left to underworld. Before going Akeno looked towards their burned house and mumbled thank you.
