Power of Destruction. Chapter 10

Rias was thoroughly shocked. She didn't want to reveal her plot now, but if she lied to him then she would lose his trust in her once he was knowledgeable in the works of devils. 'If I tell him the truth now then later, I'll have time to gain his trust. Even though I've already messed up, I have to take the time to earn his trust.' thought Rias as she made her final decision.

"You have a sacred gear." Rias said. Seeing his confused face, Rias explained, "Sacred Gears are gifts of the Biblical God that has been given to humans to enact miracles on Earth. Sacred Gears vary from strength and rarity, but I believe that you have something special!" Rias said excitedly.

"Oh, and Yuuma didn't!" yelled Issei angrily. "Yuuma wasn't special, so you didn't even try to bring her back, right?!

Rias sighed as she finished putting on her clothes. "Right. I didn't sense any type of Sacred Gear or magical power from her at all. She was just a regular human."

"So she was just trash for you, huh?" said Issei as he glared at the beautiful devil in front of him. Usually, he would have been staring at Rias in lust, but now, he was glaring at her for what she didn't do.

"She wasn't trash! I just didn't want to bring her into a world where she would only get hurt!" hollered Rias. "She didn't seem to have any talents and she was an innocent that nobody paid attention to! I left her alone because there wasn't a reason for me to bring her back!"

"NO! You didn't bring her back because YOU didn't have a reason to bring her back!" he accused, which actually made Rias step back from the boy in fright. "You're just a selfish person who only wants what's powerful so you can benefit from them! You could have asked me to join you when I was alive, but you wanted to wait until I was dead so that I didn't have a choice! You don't understand what she meant to me!"

Rias turned away from Issei, not want him to see her conflicted face. He didn't know what he was talking about! She had to do this! She couldn't take the chance of him saying 'no'!

'He doesn't get it. I'm not se-selfish! I just have to do what I have to do! I'm… I'm getting married to him!'

"I'm not a selfish person…" she muttered to herself, but Issei heard her clearly.

"Then why didn't you bring Yuuma back with me? Or even better, why did you wait for me to be dead so you could bring me back." He said with a calm anger.

It was silent in the room for while. Issei was waiting for an answer, while Rias was rummaging her mind for the right answer. Even with her smart mind, she knew the answer wouldn't be something he would like.

"I have my reasons." said Rias, disappointing Issei with her answer. "Just know that I needed you to help me accomplish my goals and I can help you with whatever you want to accomplish. You just need to trust me on this and I promise you that I'll make your life as a devil worthwhile."

"I don't trust you." Issei simply said. "You have done absolutely nothing for me to have my trust. You waited until I was dead, brought me back against my will, and just expected for me to follow your every order like a dog. That is not who I am.

"I didn't want it to be this way." said Rias. "I didn't think that the Fallen Angels would have killed you and your date. If you were dead and she was still alive, I would have just wiped her memory of what happened so that she wouldn't know about the supernatural."

"Well, that didn't' happened." Issei said angrily as he put on a shirt and some jeans. "Why were they after me in the first place? I never did anything to them before."

"I wasn't the only one who noticed that you might have had a Sacred Gear. They probably didn't want you to realize and grow your power so they decided to kill you now rather than try to fight you later on." explained Rias.

Issei sighed as he ran a hand through is hair. 'All of this shit happens to me and I didn't even ask for it.'

"Are you alright?" asked a concerned Rias. If she was going to help her newly acquired [Pawn] and gain his trust, now was the time to do so.

"Where is Yuuma's body?" he asked.

Rias' heart skipped a beat as she thought about Yuuma's body. 'We left it… back in the park. We were so tired and engraved into the fight with Lee that we didn't even notice.'

"Where is Yuuma's body?" Issei asked again, but by the way he said it, it was more of a demand to answer his question.

"I…we….we left it at the park."

Issei's eye shined a dangerous red as his right burst with magical energy. Rias' eyes widen as she watched Issei's Sacred Gear appear onto his right arm.

'Twice Critical!' she exclaimed in her head.

"You left her body at the park!" he hollered in anger.

"Ye-Yes, but we didn't mean to-

"You didn't mean to! HOW DO YOU NOT MEAN TO LEAVE A BODY OUT IN THE OPEN!"

"I-I…There was a fight…" Rias said through her fear at the anger devil. She really messed up.

"Who! Who else was there that could have saved Yuuma!?" he demanded an answer.
