3rd Person POV:

In an unknown location in the wilderness, on a rocky path

Issei made his way up the path, not struggling nearly as much as Rias and Akeno had expected. Though he had one of the heavier packs between Kiba and Koneko, Issei had kept up with Rias, Akeno, and Asia through the majority of the hike. As the trio of girls stopped to take a drink of water, Issei stood still for a moment. He took a second to catch his breath and wipe his forehead clean of the light sweat he had begun to build up. He wore a light t-shirt and wore some light denim jeans, he had been told to wear something for outdoors. It was his first time really going outside to do something in nature, so Issei just wore what he usually would on any other normal day. Issei took a look at the surrounding scenery, taking a moment to take in the beautiful natural surroundings.

Rias: "Come on, Issei!" Rias turned around and waved at the brown-haired boy who was standing still, and shouted at him "Hurry it up!"

Akeno: "It's so refreshing!" Akeno said, taking a drink from the refreshment basin.

Issei: "Right..." Issei said. "This would have been much easier without the extra weight of the pack! Also, I want to take in the scenery! Is there a reason to rush?" Issei shouted back

Asia: "U-um, I can take some of that baggage." Asia said, looking at Rias.

Rias: "That's okay, Issei has to be able to manage that much." Rias said, looking at Issei who had begun begrudgingly trudging up the path once again, grumbling to himself about something. "He seems to be handling it just fine, I think he was just trying to be sarcastic with his baggage statement." Rias turned to look as Asia and said, then turned her attention back to Issei, who was just being passed by Kiba.

Kiba: "Excuse me." Kiba said, walking past without much strain.

Issei: "Ah... where'd you come from. Was I standing there looking at the scenery for that long?" Issei said, talking to himself.

Koneko: "Pardon me." Koneko said, as she also passed by Issei,, who had stopped in his tracks to allow the small girl to pass by him. Koneko carried a pack that was so large, the only appropriate description would be 'comical'. Koneko passed a little to close to the motionless Issei, and her oversized pack set Issei off balance, causing him to tip back and fall down.

Issei: "Ah! Shit." Issei said, before shifting his weight forward and getting onto his knees, and looking at Koneko's back, said, "Watch where you're going, please." 

Rias and Akeno looked at Issei with a smile, as he got up, redonned the pack, and began walking with a sigh.
