Blackout

"In the end, we didn't do what we intended to do..." Yuuji said as he and Shou were in the car, making their way back to the house.

"I don't think so. You did display your power, even if it was minor. And besides, I don't believe that he and the rest of the Phoenix family, will let us be after harming him, or what they would call it, "disrespecting" him"

"I see... where are you driving to? This is not the way to the house..." Yuuji asked as he looked outside of the window

"You see, there was one more thing I forgot to tell you about the fallen angels. I told you that they'll extract the Sacred Gear from the nun, but I never told you how they're going to do it. Apparently, they have some kind of an instrument to extract the Sacred Gear. Now that the devils took care of the fallen angels, the instrument is just lying in the church, so I thought, why not take it? I'll send it to the old man, and he'll take a look at it, and maybe even upgrade it..."

"Well, I guess that is good. Maybe I'll use it on the one who made Kuroka betray me..."

"Divine Dividing can be a useful asset... though, I doubt that the White Dragon Emperor will cooperate with us after we extract the Sacred Gear and kill his host..." said Shou

"Not that I care. I'm sure that he'll eventually come around, or else, we can just put the Sacred Gear in the warehouse, and make sure he never gets another host..."

~~~ Time Skip ~~~

It's been ten days since the incident with Riser, and now, Shou and Mike were playing a video game in the living room, while the girls were out, as Kate dragged Erika for shopping, and Yuuji was sitting next to Shou and Mike, reading a book.

Then, Shou abruptly stopped the game and looked down at the floor, just in time to see a magic circle, and with the snap of his fingers, the magic circle broke, and then he said:

"Someone just tried to teleport us forcefully. Feels like a devil..."

"So they are here... well then, if we're going to go to an engagement party, we should change..." said Yuuji

"What about Kate and Erika?" asked Mike

"My mother will explain it to them when they return"

"Okay! It's time for some men's action! Let's rock that party!!" said Shou, and the three went to their rooms.

As they were changing, a knock was heard on the entrance door, and Maria, Yuuji's mother, opened the door, revealing Grayfia.

"Excuse me. Is this the home of Yuuji Hayama-Sama?" asked Grayfia

"And who is asking?" asked Maria

"My name is Grayfia Lucifuge. I'm a maid of the Gremory family. The young miss is attending in the same class as Hayama-Sama and would like to invite him to her engagement party, so I came to escort him to the party"

"An engagement party? At this age? I believe it is too young to marry at such age, don't you think too?"

"My opinion on the matter isn't important, as the decision is for the Master and Mistress to make. Can I ask for Hayama-Sama to come?"

"I'm here" both women heard Yuuji said from behind Maria and turned their gazes to look at Yuuji, Shou, and Mike coming down the stairs, all wearing a matching black tuxedo.

"It's been a while, Grayfia-San. We didn't expect you to come here to get us personally..." Shou said teasingly

"I'm afraid that only the two of you were invited, and the third gentleman can't come with us..." said Grayfia

"Then we're not going. It's either all of us or none of us. Your choice" said Yuuji and narrowed his eyes

"...Very well then. Please stand in the magic circle" Grayfia said, and a magic circle appeared under her, and once the three stood on it, they teleported, and the next thing they saw, was a big hall, filled with devils. They looked around and saw Rias, her peerage members, except for Issei and Asia, and Riser and his peerage members.

Then, Yuuji's eyes landed on what seemed like a male version of Rias, which he assumed that was Sirzechs Lucifer, one of the devil kings, and Rias's older brother.

Riser had a mocking expression as he looked at Yuuji, and he said:

"We meet again, lowly humans. Now, you're going to pay for disrespecting me... I brought you here so we could fight, and I'm going to humiliate you, and when you lose, you'll bow, and beg for my forgiveness!"

"I'll tell you what. If you can beat him (pointing at Mike), then we all will bow and apologize. However, if you lose, you and your family will have to fulfill our request. What do you say? Do you accept, or are you perhaps, too afraid, like the chicken you are?" Shou said in a taunting tone, and once again, Grayfia could feel that he was putting up a barrier, only this time, she wasn't the only one who felt it, as Sirzechs felt it as well, but both of them assumed that he did that only because he thought they were going to fight in the hall.

Then, Riser laughed and said:

"It doesn't matter to me. I'll win anyway!"

"Are we going to do it in here?" asked Mike

"No, we will send the two of you to an artificial dimension, where you could fight without worrying about harming the environment" answered Sirzechs, and then both of them were teleported to an artificial dimension

~~~ With Mike ~~~

"To me, you humans are all the same, and now, I'm going to teach you and your lowly friends, just how much I am superior to you! However, I'm feeling generous today, so I'll let you try to attack me first, and I will not move from this place!" Riser exclaimed

Mike took a big double-headed ax from a pocket dimension, held it in one hand, and then said:

"You're underestimating me... I'll make you regret it, and you'll be the one who'll bow and ask for forgiveness" he said with a cheeky smirk, and then raised his other hand, and with his index finger, pointed to the sky, and said:

"Blackout" and the moment he said it, a barrier was placed over the area

"As expected from a human. You're so stupid, that you don't understand that there is no point in putting up a barrier since we are allowed to destroy the environment!" said Riser mockingly

"Try to use your family's power..." Mike said in a suggestive tone

"You want to witness my power before we fight? Very well then. Witness the power of the Phoenix family!!" Riser exclaimed and raised his hand to ignite a fireball, but nothing happened

"Huh?" Riser said and tried to ignite a fireball again, only to fail again, and tried even more, but nothing happened again

"What is going on!? What did you do!?"

"I canceled your ability to use magic. It won't matter what you'll try, you can't use your magic when you're within 300 meters of me. Now, where we were? Oh, right! You're going to let me attack you first, and you won't move..." Mike said with a sinister smirk, as he started to move closer to Riser

~~~ With Yuuji ~~~

All the devils were shocked as they heard what Mike said, while Shou was coming back from the buffet, with two bottles of wine.

"Here you go. That is some great wine!" Shou said and handed him a bottle, and took a sip from the second bottle

"I'm not as barbaric as you, I need a glass..." said Yuuji as he grabbed the bottle

"Right away!" Shou said and snapped his finger, and a glass appeared in his hand, and at the same time, some people witnessed one of the glasses on the table disappear

Yuuji then poured wine into the glass and took a sip, and then said:

"I guess that it's to be expected that the wine will be good when nobles are having a party..."

Sirzechs narrowed his eyes at the two, as he thought:

'The blond one can teleport stuff, the black-haired one can cancel your ability to use magic, and the white-haired one moved so fast, that even Grayfia couldn't see him... they could be very dangerous...'

~~~ With Mike ~~~

Mike continued to move closer, and then he said:

"You know, your family's power counts as magic, and since your regeneration depends on your magic, it won't work either. Knowing this, what would you do? You can value your pride, and let me cut you in half, or you can value your life, and surrender now"

Mike could see the fear visible in Riser's eyes, but Riser said:

"R-Riser is not afraid of you, even without his magic. R-Riser doubts that you can even hurt him!"

"Well, it's your funeral..." Mike said and stopped in front of Riser, and then raised his hand, pointing with the ax at the sky, and then said:

"Any last words?"

"L-Like this toy can hurt me!!" Riser exclaimed

~~~ With Yuuji ~~~

"Well, that is over..." said Shou as he looked at Mike raising his hand

"You have to stop him!!" Yuuji and Shou heard a girl's voice exclaim and looked at the source of the voice. It was a young girl, with blonde hair tied into twintails with large drill-like curls, blue ribbons keeping them in place, and dark blue eyes. She wore a purple dress with matching gloves and black boots. Yuuji and Shou could both see the visible similarity between her and Riser, so they naturally thought that she was one of his relatives.

"Why? He was the one who said that he won't move and let Mike attack him..." said Shou

"B-Because, you won't be able to receive your request, as you need my brother alive!"

"Not exactly. I believe that I said that he AND his family will fulfill our request, so we only need the rest of your family alive..."

"B-But... my brother might be an asshole sometime, but he's still my brother, and I can't watch him die, without doing anything!! So please stop him!!!" the girl exclaimed, and tears started to form in her eyes

Yuuji looked at the girl in the eyes for a few seconds and then asked:

"Shou, does Mike has his phone with him?"

Hearing that, Shou just sighed and said:

"You can be too kind sometimes, you know? Yes, he has it. Should I give him a call?"

"Yes" Yuuji said, and then turned his gaze to the blond girl

"I will give you one chance to convince your brother to surrender. If he won't, then it's his problem. Then you'll be able to say that you did do something to prevent his death. But, if he will, then he'll live, and you'll have your brother in a debt for the rest of his life, so I expect you to use it, so he won't get into this kind of situation again..." Yuuji said as Shou made the call

~~~ With Mike ~~~

Mike started to move his hand down when his phone rang, and he stopped midway, his ax is mere millimeters away from Riser's face and used his other hand to take the phone out of his pocket, and once he saw who the caller was, he answered the call

"Shou, what do you want? I'm about to finish here" Mike asked

"Yuuji decided to let the chicken have one last chance. Put the call on speaker" Shou said, and Mike did as he said, and then the blond girl's voice came out of the phone:

"Brother? Can you hear me?"

"Ravel!? Why are you talking through this human thing!?" Riser asked

"It doesn't matter now! Brother, you have to surrender!"

"Surrender!? You want me to make a joke out of myself!?

"Please brother! I don't want to lose you!!"

"Don't worry, this human is too weak to-"

"Open your eyes!!! The white-haired guy punched you so hard, that you were sent through buildings, all the way to the center of the city! And this guy is even larger than him! He'll truly cut you in half. If you don't want to do it for yourself, then do it for me! I don't want you to die!" Ravel said, and you could hear she was crying

"Dude, you made your little sister cry just because you don't want to let go of your pride? I think that even you can tell how much of an asshole you're being right now. While I don't care if you die or live, even I start to don't want to kill you from hearing your sister, and I don't even know your sister, nor even knows how she looks!"

"...I...I...surrender..." Riser said and fell to his knees

"Good. Now you need to go and apologize to your sister, for making her cry" Mike said, put the ax back in the pocket dimension, and both were teleported back to the hall

The moment they appeared in the building, Ravel rushed to Riser

"Brother!!" Ravel exclaimed and hugged her brother

"Well, that ended quickly..." Mike said as he started to walk back to Yuuji and Shou

"I guess that now we can ask for something from the Phoenix family, huh?" Shou said with a smirk

"Whatever. I don't care, so you can think of something you want. Maybe a little more funding to the warehouse..." said Yuuji, and then his attention moved to Ravel, who was approaching him. Once she was in front of him, she bowed and said:

"Thank you for sparing my brother"

"Well, I won't earn something from his death, so it doesn't matter to me whether he lives or not..." Yuuji said

"I know what I want to my request to be! I want-" Shou said but was interrupted by the sound of doors open loudly, and Issei entered the hall, shouting:

"President!!"

"Issei!?" Rias said in shock, and then the rest of her peerage defeated the guards that were attacking Issei

Then, Issei saw Yuuji, Shou and Mike, and asked:

"Huh? What are you guys doing here!?"

"Well, we were beating the same chicken who destroyed you! I feel pity for the Red Dragon Emperor, that a hopeless pervert like you is his host... anyway, why are you so late?"

"I came here to free Rias from her engagement!"

"Is that so?... You know what? Since we already in such a generous mood, why won't I add to it? I move the rights of our request to Issei. He can do whatever he wants with it. I don't need anything anyway..." Shou said, and then, Yuuji suddenly approached Rias's peerage, and stopped in front of Koneko, bent, and looked into her eyes

"You're different in a lot of things from her, but your eyes are the same as your sister..." he said in a low tone, so only Koneko and the rest of Rias's peerage could hear, and their eyes widen in shock, and Koneko asked:

"You know my sister?"

"At the very least, I used to know. She used to be important to me, but she betrayed me. I guess that we feel the same about her, don't we? However, let me tell you something. Senjutsu masters can't get drunk in their power, so the assumption that she killed your master because of it is wrong. You should make use of the fact that you're in the peerage of the sister of Lucifer, and ask him to investigate her case more thoroughly, and I'm sure the truth will come out.

And when it does, I'm sure you'll want to meet your sister, so when she asks you how did you realized all of this, tell her that it was one last favor from me" Yuuji said and walked back to Shou and Mike.

Once he was standing next to them, he said:

"One more thing..." he started to say, and for the first time in a long time, he released his aura, which was so strong, that it made everyone to fall to their knees, except for Sirzechs, who was sweating, and then Yuuji said:

"If you bother me one more time, I'll personally kill the one who bothered me, together with everyone who knew about it and didn't stop him..." Yuuji said and they teleported back to the house...
