( Issei's Room)

The sounds of sobbing, and quiet thanks could be heard from the dragoness and her hatchling, as she held him tightly in his bed. They were both in their human forms. Tiamate was a beautiful 30 year old woman, with long dark blue hair, aquatic blue eyes and a figure that could changelle most of the supernatural goddesses beauty. Issei was always quite the charmer, his hair being a spiky golden blonde, and his eyes being just as golden.

The two had been like this for the last half hour, just embracing each other as the many worries they had began to vanish. The room had been mostly empty, only the mother and hatchling pair, Grayfia, Sirzechs and Rias were left behind. Each of the three devils had their own reasons. Grayfia was happy that her new friend had gotten her son back, but she was also worried about what she might do, at least regarding the conversation they had a few days ago.

The two siblings though, they too had their own reasons, but they were a bit weird for them to explain. Not just to others, but even to them themselves. Sirzechs wanted to gain Issei's forgiveness for having failed him, and inadvertently making him sacrifice himself for everyone else. He had failed him as a leader, and as a brother. But he knew Issei wouldn't want him to do this, as he would always forgive him. Even then this wasn't the Issei he wanted to apologize to, he was only a shadow.. no he wasn't Issei Hyoudou, he was some else.

And Rias she wanted him. She wanted him to be her Issei again, but this showed that wasn't possible. The Issei infront of her was someone else, but he had so many of the same qualite that made her love Issei Hyoudou, and have made her have a crush of sorts for this one too. But she knew, or at least believed, that Tiamate knew of one of her darkest days. A mistake she made in blind rage, sadness and rejection.

And because Tiamate knew this, Rias didn't feel she would have or even be given a chance to speak with Issei. A silence began to fill the room, as the sobs began to stop. Only the sound of light breathing could be heard in its place, before it too was broken by the sound of movement and the sound of the bed hinges creaked because of the two dragons moving.

Tiamate sat down in her chair again, to the side of Issei still holding his hand. Her face was stained by many streaks of dried tears, though it was still beautiful, and even more so because of her radiating smile of pure joy. Issei's face was also stained by tears, but his almost golden smile outshined the stains. The two of them notice the silence that had retaken the room and the three pairs of eyes focus solely on them.

Issei turned his eyes to the first person he saw, other than his mother. A woman he would describe as beautiful, with long silky silver hair standing right behind his mother. He knew he had never met her before, but he knew her name and had memories of her, that wasn't his. He turned his head towards the next person he could sense in the room. It was a tall man with long red hair, and a pair of blue eyes that were almost the shade blue as his mother's fire breath.

He knew his name as well, and knew things about him and had memories with him, even though he knew he barely knew him. The next person he saw was one he knew, it was Rias. She was beautiful, no one could deny that. With her long and silky red hair, beautiful face and almost sky like blue eyes. He had memories of her too, most of them were not his. But the one that was his held hatred towards her, but at the same time he couldn't hate her as she brought him here, he knew that or at least he could tell or feel it somehow.

Rias tried her best to smile in a friendly way towards him, as his eyes landed on her. But she could feel that he wasn't looking at her, not really. He was looking at her and the others through the lense of what he knew, from the memories he had gained. What was a kid like Issei supposed to do in this kind of situation? He didn't know most of these people, but yet he knew them like they were family. He hated Rias for attacking his mother and his new friends, but also felt a strange emotion towards he had never felt before.
