Demon Angel (Highschool DxD)

Chapter 2 - Photo Album

One night, at the "Harem King's"  also known as Issei Hyoudou's house, you could see a black haired beauty having a terrible nightmare. She is squirming and twisting at Issei's bed that cause everyone who is sleeping with Issei wake up. When I say everyone, I mean EVERYONE except Rossweisse, Irina Shidou, Gasper Vladi, Yuuto Kiba and Issei's parents. All of them rubbed their eyes while looking at the cause of their disrupted sleep. 

They saw Akeno Himejima sweating, crying at her sleep and mumbling something. The whole gang grew worried about her and tried to wake her up. Fortunately, she woke up. Akeno jolted in her sleep that cause everyone to get startled and fell of the bed. They all rubbed their bump at their head to lessen the pain. Lucky for them its not that serious. 

However, Akeno is still shaken up because of her nightmare and still crying her eyes out. The gang look very worried at her since she really look shaken up. The former nun whose name is Asia Argento along with her master, Rias Gremory who already have her clothes on tried to calm her down by patting her back. 

"Are you okay, Akeno-san?" Issei asked concerned about his Vice President.

"I-I'm okay. No need to worry." Akeno replied while wiping her tears and get dress.

"Are you sure? You really look shaken up. Is there something wrong?" a certain blue haired swordswoman named Xenovia Quarta asked worried about her friend.

"Yeah... just a nightmare." Akeno replied forcing a smile that only Rias knew.

"No. Your not okay. I already know you since childhood. So, Akeno tell me what's wrong." Rias seriously ordered.

"Him..." Akeno whispered to the wind that only Rias and Asia heard as Rias froze while Asia became confused.

"Umm... Akeno-san... Who's him?" Asia asked politely and confused as Akeno gripped the blanket tightly while Rias snapped out of her trance.

"What do you mean by him, Asia-senpai?" A cute neko named Koneko Tojo asked confused.

"Ne Akeno, how about you get some fresh air? I think it can clear your mind a bit." Rias butted in and suggested that earn a nod to Akeno as she walk out of the room.

"Wait! Ake-" Rias cut Issei off by raising her hand in front of him.

"Let her be. She needs a fresh air after all." Rias said as she sigh.

"But Prez! I'm very worried about Akeno-san! She constantly having nightmares every night!" Issei argued while standing up.

"Issei, Akeno is fine. Its just- Nevermind. Let's go back to sleep." Rias said cutting herself off at the middle of her sentence and head back to sleep (of course naked).

That action made the others grew curious about what their master about to say. But they shrugged it off and head back to sleep. Still worried about their Queen.

Meanwhile...

Akeno walk out of Issei's room and headed to a balcony. She leaned at the railing and sigh loudly. She look up to the starry sky and teared up a little. You could notice that her eyes is full of sadness, sorrow and guilt.

"Where are you now? I miss you." The Priestess softly asked the stars and hoping to see the crimson haired boy.

She look at the clock and saw that its now 11:00. She sigh one last time before heading back. But instead of Issei's room, she went back to her room instead.

She was crouching at the door and stare at the space sadly. She sigh sorrowfully and about to head to bed when a small red box caught her eyes. She carefully open it and was shock when she saw a black photo album, a small leather jacket and a lightning necklace.
