I Literally Don't Have Anything

Chapter 8 - Bottled Up

Here we go. Let's get on with this. I won't be bringing anyone from any other anime I swear, I can barely keep track of the characters in DxD as is so more would kill me brain.

Let's get to it.

____________________________________________

Sona had been holding her emotions back for a long time now.

She has let them out every now and again and has let out a lot of different emotions. She bottles up her emotions a lot though.

She only lets them out when she's really pushed to that breaking point. Some of these are just emotions she doesn't show often or even just doesn't show a lot of it.

Laughing with joy when meeting Ryan and hearing his jokes as well as when she approached him. That noise he made was hilarious to her, she made it her notification sound on her phone.

Crying in sadness or happiness when Ryan was nearly killed and when he was alright in the end. That was something she didn't like remembering.

Smiling in happiness at any time he made her feel happy. He could make her smile in seconds. That's one thing she loves about him.

Yeah, when she met Ryan she ended up letting out a lot of emotions more openly. Not suppressing them or hiding them entirely. Every emotion you can have, she has let it out at some point for some reason.

Well, except for one. One emotion that she has shown a lot, but not the whole thing.

Rage.

This is an emotion that's been building up for a long time now. To the point she desperately needs to let it out. It's been at the brim for a while and the bottle keeps getting filled. It's ready to blow at any second with just the right push.

It wasn't something like being irritated by work that did it. It was the constant and repeated disrespect that Ryan received.

The poor guy. He goes through it more than anyone she's met.

Constant insults based on multiple things about him.

A disgusting human, worthless being, weak, pathetic, waste of oxygen. One she especially hates is things like, he doesn't deserve her. Who the hell are they to decide that? She'll decide I'd Ryan deserves her. No one else will.

He gets so much shit, for nothing. He has done nothing to these people, these Devils and Fallen Angels. She's even seen Angels look down at him. All for what? Simply existing, that's why. Even after he helped defeat Loki, playing a huge part in the victory, he still got shit from Devils and other beings too cowardly to say it to him. That's probably a reason they hate him, he has more bravery than anyone in the whole damn underworld. Honestly if he was a Devil, he'd be the best damn Devil in history.

The worst part is avoiding these comments is impossible. His only friends are Devils. Ryuko is his only human friend and he only met her last week.

Ever since the situation with Loki. The underworld never changed opinion of him. They all just said he was a lucky human that did nothing but hold the team back. She did meet someone brave enough to say that to HER face when in the underworld for something. Not HIS face hers. She swears if she hit that asshole any harder she would have decapitated him.

Then there's now. They were talking about Ryan like he wasn't a person. Like he didn't have a soul. Like he wasn't even real.

They keep saying "it" like he isn't anything that resembles a human. Like he's some sort of alien.

And then they have all these names for him.

Monster, thing, abomination, freak, beast, animal.

Something that needs to be destroyed.
