The Lost Son (Highschool DxD Fanfiction)

S1 E6: Red Wings

Ashur POV

It'd been a day since they had given Issei his memories back and Ashur was calm. He was calm because everyday Issei would report to the clubroom on time and they would get home without a problem. After getting home it was always the same schedule with dinner, homework and his midnight rendezvous with the rest of the club members.

"Thank god Issei goes to bed before midnight. Otherwise, I would be unable to sneak out so easily." Ashur thought to himself while staring at the clock at his bedside.

"11:30 PM" The glowing red letters read. Ashur had been staring at the clock for over thirty minutes now and he was beginning to become eager for the meeting.

"I wonder what will happen tonight! Maybe it's training or tactics, or maybe even learning more about what I possibly could be." Ashur thought as his heat began to race. It began beating faster and faster, then out of excitement he bolted upwards.

"I'll just go in early today," Ashur murmured, "It won't matter that much." He walked over to the door and made sure to quietly creep into the hall. He quickly shut the door to stop the light from pouring into the room and made it to the front door. He quickly threw on his shoes and left his family's apartment, went down the stairs and began running to the school. As he ran, the moonlight shone down onto the buildings and onto the marble fountain near his house. He ran and ran and ran until he reached the front gate of the school. In an instant, he jumped over the ten-foot-tall gate and then slowed his pace as he walked towards the church-spire building.

"Wow, it's way eerier here without being let in by Yuuto or Rias-chan," Ashur said plainly while getting ever closer to the door of the spire. As he reached the stairs and began climbing them, he heard the faint sound of voices chattering in the room.

"Huh, must be Akeno and Rias. No one else ever arrives before I do." He thought to himself while reaching the door handle to twist it.

"So she's been spotted in the area?" Rias's voice called out from behind the door.

"Yes, Raynare has decided to make her presence known again." Akeno's calm voice drifted out. Ashur's giddy and excited expression turned to absolute Fury.

"That bitch! I'll kill her!" Ashur exploded, not trying to conceal his presence. He swiftly turned away and began to run down the steps and slammed into the door, knocking it open. He heard Rias and Akeno's voices but he just kept running. He ran for what seemed like hours until he came upon the large open field around ten or so minutes from the school. Ashur collapsed onto the ground in pure exhaustion. His body was aching from the rage and he was slowly fading out of consciousness. Before his world faded to black, he spat out four words.

"Raynare...I'll kill you!"

Ashur ran through the fields and to his school's front door. He passed the other kids on his way and eventually made it to his classroom. As he entered, he noticed a silver-haired girl sitting in wait, looking off into the distance. As he approached her, she snapped her head over in his direction and their eyes met. Her golden eyes shone in the morning light and Ashur smiled at her.

"Hey, Nova-chan!" He exclaimed while drawing closer to her.

"Good morning Ashur-chan!" She replied and returned his smile, "How are you today?"
