Rias:
She was happy to spend some time with her new pawn, but she had to tell her the truth about what happened. Those fallen angels would surely attack her again, and she wouldn't let them hurt her lovely pawn. So she simply crossed her arms and sat on the bed, her expression turning serious.
"You see, Angelica, the girl who invited you out was a fallen angel, and her objective was to attack you. You surely possess a Sacred Gear within you, and since you haven't discovered it yet, your enemies are afraid that the future could be dangerous, which is why they sent them to attack you."
She stopped being serious to watch the girl's reaction when she told her she was now a demon. Then she stood up and unfurled her demon wings, saying, "I hope you won't be scared, but I am a demon, and I belong to the Gremory clan. What I'm going to tell you now is that you have become my servant, and you now serve me."
She paid attention to the girl to see her reaction.
Angy:
I already knew what she was going to say, but I had to pretend I didn't know anything, so I was just surprised to see her wings. And also by the explanation she gave me. I was going to ask her if she was going to protect me, but I couldn't speak because she kept telling me more things, and that's when I pretended even more and just pointed to myself, saying, "So you're saying that some fallen angels are looking for me to eliminate me? Because in the future I could be a potential threat, and besides, now I'm a demon and I serve you."
To make her laugh a little, I stood like a soldier and just put my hand to my forehead while saying, "Then I will do whatever you order, Rias-sama. I am at your service and I will do everything you ask."
Rias:
Seeing what she had done, she started laughing and simply sat back down, crossing her arms as she tried to think of an order. But then she remembered what she had done while asleep and, with a half-smile, said, "Then let me touch your breasts and hear those moans you made in the bathroom again."
She crossed her arms, knowing she had to teach her servant some manners, and said somewhat seriously, "And besides, I must teach you manners, and I'll also give you a few magical spankings so you learn to respect."
With that, she formed a seal on her hand and waited for Angelica to accept her punishment.
Angy:
I expected what she was going to ask of me, but I felt like my punishment had already been exacted in the bathroom since she did several things to me there. She was touching my body, supposedly to get revenge for what I did, but it was probably just curiosity since I did the same thing while she was asleep next to me. Remembering that made me blush a little.
But it didn't end there. Now she was going to spank me, and remembering when Issei was punished made me imagine I wouldn't be able to sit properly all day because of the punishment I was going to receive.
So I just scratched my cheek and said, "Seriously, I have to get punished after what you did to me in the bathroom? And before you say anything, I'm just being honest. I don't deserve that punishment anymore, and we should postpone it until Monday, without fail. We're running late. Just look at the clock."
After saying that, I pointed to my clock on my desk, and when she turned around, I grabbed my backpack and ran out of there. Since I didn't want to go through that punishment, I had to run away from home. The good thing is that my parents had already gone to work, and I thought they were home, but thank God I sometimes forget things, and now I was glad that nobody was home.
Rias:
Her new pawn, Angelica, was very cheerful, which made her happy. She simply obeyed and glanced at her watch, but to her great surprise, Angelica had run away, leaving her no choice but to leave as well. Though she would eventually make Angelica pay for it, for now she simply cast a seal, took out her backpack, and started walking.
"Things will be fun with Angelica," she thought, "since she's such a cheerful girl, and I like that. I'm sure the other members of the Occult Research Club will be happy to have her as a friend."
Upon leaving the house, she thought Angelica had already left, but to her surprise, she saw the girl playing with a dog, which brought a smile to her face.
The two girls started walking, and as usual, Angelica was very cheerful, which made Rias feel very comfortable by her side. What she didn't realize was that they were the center of attention as they arrived at the academy, and small groups of girls and boys started commenting on how good they looked.
Angy heard them, but ignored them and just kept walking beside Rias. Talking with her, she realized how pleasant Rias was, and she had expected her to be more serious based on how she appeared in the anime, but it was quite the opposite. Angelica was a good friend, and Rias hoped to help her stop her arranged marriage.
Classes proceeded normally, except that Rias had a conversation with Souna Sitri, telling her that she had acquired a strong pawn and expected good things in the future. The president of the Occult Research Club also had the same plans to reincarnate her as a demon, but her friend had beaten her to it, and now she had no choice but to accept defeat.
Hours later
Angy:
Right now I was feeling a bit embarrassed because Aika Kiryuu was such a pervert. She was telling me a story where she imagined me and Rias in a romantic relationship, since she didn't think I was just friends with her, especially since we were holding hands this morning when we arrived at school.
— You're exaggerating, Kiryuu. We're just friends, and the part about us holding hands is a complete lie. Why would you believe the other students? You saw us yourself.
I just thought to myself, this girl really imagines things. Now I understand why she got along so well with Issei. But anyway, I'm not going to blame her because she's a good friend and she's helped me a lot at this academy.
Aika:
I wasn't going to miss this opportunity to make my friend blush, which is why I brought up Rias Gremory.
— I know they weren't holding hands, but people have already started saying they're a couple and that they look really cute together. And you know very well that rumors spread like wildfire in this school, and I'm sure a lot of guys and girls hate you right now for stealing their princess.
She adjusted her glasses to see her friend's reaction, but before she could, some girls started mentioning Kiba's name, and she just turned to the door to see him there.
Kiba:
Seeing how lively the class was made him smile, since he was sure they were all talking about the same rumor. It was that Rias had a new interest and had neglected Akeno—there were many things being said, but he knew very well that wasn't the case. So he just glanced in a certain direction and entered the classroom, approaching the girl and saying, "Hi Angelica, I'd like you to come with me. Someone in the Occult Research Club wants to talk about your application to join."
He had to tell that lie so the girl would understand and come with him.
Angy:
I only agreed to go with Kiba because Rias was sure to introduce me to the other members of the Occult Research Club. And I was kind of happy because I'd get to meet the other members of the Gremory clan, and I'd like to make friends with them and see if it's true that Koneko doesn't give you any candy. Although I have my secrets, and I could steal them when she least expects it, but I'd get punished by her, and I didn't want to get hit, so I decided to leave it for later.
As we were walking, I could hear several murmurs, and it was probably because I came to school with Rias, and it reminded me of a girl anime.
— I think it was called Citrus, but for now, I put that aside and started thinking, and I said to myself, "Seriously, this academy really does change rumors. Anyway, it doesn't affect me at all, and I won't change who I am."
The two continued walking, and the Gremory knight thought the girl might be discouraged by what they were saying, but when he turned to look at her, he noticed she was calm and had her usual smile. This made him smile too, since the girl ignored everyone else, and if anyone tried to mess with her, he would undoubtedly come to her defense.
She was his new friend, and besides, their president wouldn't let anyone hurt her, as she was now part of her peerage. As expected, they arrived at the Occult Research Club, where Rias Gremory was waiting for the last two members. The minutes passed, and all the members introduced themselves. They were happy to have a new member for their club, and they also explained to her how the demon pieces worked.
Rias:
She just looked her pawn up and down and crossed her arms. "Well, Angy, you have to try to materialize your Sacred Gear." She was hoping her new member would surprise her.
Angy:
I think now's my moment to shine in the Occult Research Club and prove I can be someone trustworthy, so I just held out my hand. But a few seconds passed and nothing happened, and I just kept saying to myself, "I'm making a fool of myself in front of the other members. They'll probably think I'm weak."
So I calmed down a bit and went back to my normal position, trying to think of something so I wouldn't look bad in front of the guys. I just imagined a scene, and you're all wondering what it was, well, I'll tell you: it was when Goku fights Vegeta. I had to try it, and it didn't matter if they made fun of me. All I wanted to do was show that I wasn't going to give up and that I was capable of achieving what I wanted.
But I had a bead of sweat on my brow because I didn't want to make a fool of myself in front of Rias again, so I told myself, "Come on, Angy, come on, Angy. I know everything will be alright, and please don't let it be a useless Sacred Gear."
Everyone watched this, and Rias was about to tell him that perhaps he wasn't yet able to materialize it and not to worry. She explained that he still needed to train and would be able to do it in time. But everyone was in for a big surprise when the room lit up with a red light that momentarily stunned them all. When their vision returned, they saw that he was holding a red gauntlet and were astonished to recognize it as Sacred Gear.
Rias:
Seeing that her pawn hadn't materialized her Sacred Gear, she was about to approach her to hug her and tell her not to worry, but she was surprised because she did manage to do it, striking a strange pose. Rias couldn't deny that she was going to laugh at what she was doing. Which she didn't, because she was blinded by a red light, and when she could see what it was, she was surprised because she had a Longinus.
So she simply approached her, saying, "I see you have the Boosted Gear. I'm surprised that my lovely pawn has it." The redhead approached Angy and simply stroked her head, happy that she was in her clan.
Angy:
I never thought I'd have to do almost the same thing as Issei, but in the end, I have a power, and now I can say I'm not useless. The surprise didn't end there, because I looked closely at my hand and saw that the red gauntlet had already evolved and was the same one Issei had when he faced the Phoenix Clan members.
I just smiled and said to myself..."In your face, you pervert! I'm not as weak as you, and now I'll prove I'm a worthy wielder of Draig, and I'm ready to kick some ass!"
I was so focused on my newfound power and planned to talk to the Welsh dragon that night when I went to sleep, but someone snapped me out of my thoughts. It was Rias, who was petting me.
The night was rather long, and the members of the Occult Research Club had a matter to settle. This was where they would test Angy to see if she needed training. Since Angy already knew how the pieces worked, it was easy for her to join the team.
Just like in the anime, Rias got distracted, but Angy caught Rias, preventing her from being harmed. The vice-president of the Occult Research Club, angered by this distraction, made the rogue demon suffer. It was then that Angy realized she should never anger Akeno, because if she did, she would receive a severe punishment.
Before going home, the president told her new pawn that her new job was to deliver flyers, and that it would only be for a short time, as she would soon begin serving customers.
Rias:
Tonight had gone wonderfully since she wouldn't have any problems training her pawn. He had balanced power and wasn't doing too badly.
— Well, everyone, I think it's time to head home. We'll start our Gremory clan duties tomorrow.
After that, the girl went home.
Akeno
Approached her new companion and simply hugged her from behind, whispering in her ear, "I see you did a good job, Angelica, and I appreciate you taking care of the president. I think I should give you a gift for doing so."
But then she saw the girl pull away from her embrace and noticed she seemed somewhat nervous.
Angy:
Seeing everyone leaving, I was ready to go, but someone hugged me from behind. Hearing her voice, I knew who it was, and seeing how close she was made me a little nervous, so I just pulled away and overheard what she said.
"I'm sorry, Akeno, but don't take it the wrong way. You don't need to give me a gift since we have to protect our president."
Before things got awkward, I just smiled and ran home, knowing my parents would definitely scold me for being so late. Although I already had the perfect excuse ready.
