*At 7:30 AM in the Hyoudou residence, Issei and Lincoln awaited Yuuma's awakening in his room, struck by her innocent appearance as she slept*.

Lincoln: I have to admit, she looks so innocent when she sleeps.

Issei: Yeah, I hope she's alright when she wakes up.

Lincoln: Don't worry, let's wait for her to wake so we can ask about what she remembers before she was possessed.

Issei: Then we can find out more about Rias Gremory and her friend Koneko.

Lincoln: Absolutely, that's on my mind, too.

Before they could delve deeper into their thoughts, they heard Yuuma stirring.

Yuuma: Ugh... Where am I? Where are the others? Feels like I'm in a bad dream... Trying to... kill Issei-kun?

Issei: Rise and shine, sleepyhead.

Lincoln: How are you feeling? Any discomfort? *He gave her a reassuring smile.*

Yuuma: *thinking* Did Issei-kun and Lincoln-kun just welcome me into their home? Oh my gosh, oh my gosh, I'm not ready!

Lincoln: Are you alright?

Yuuma: *snapping out of her thoughts* Huh? Oh, yes, I am. This is... unexpected... Wait, my friends! *She attempted to sit up but felt weak, nearly falling.* Kyaa!

Issei: Easy there. You're still recovering. *He caught her before she hit the ground.*

Yuuma: *blushing as Issei catches her* Oh, thank you... *Noticing she's in her real outfit, she tried to cover herself, blushing deeper.*

Lincoln: Here, take a seat. Can I ask your real name? And we already know you're not human.

Yuuma: Um, my name is Raynare, and I'm sorry for deceiving you. I was afraid you'd hate me if you knew my true self. *She looked down, feeling remorseful.*

Issei: No harm done. I understand that everyone has their insecurities. And you've already apologized for it.

Raynare: Thank you. *She bowed slightly to Issei.*

Lincoln: And sorry for knocking you out, but it was to protect my brother and save you from that demon who possessed you.

Raynare: Thank you, Lincoln-Kun.

Lincoln: You're welcome. By the way, do you remember anything from yesterday?

Raynare: What happened yesterday? *She tried to recall her mind flashing back to the abandoned Kuoh Church.*

???: Hoho, it seems like our girl can't wait for the "hangout" tomorrow. *starts teasing Raynare*
