Episode 13

Simon: What do you mean she's gone!?

Simon was standing outside his apartment and across from him was Issei.

Issei; I went to check on Asia in the club and she was taken!

Simon: A-Any ideas on who could have taken her!?

Issei: Well... the only people who would... right?

Simon sigh.

Simon; Hey Ryuko! I'm head out for a while!

Ryuko(other room): Kay!

He closed the door.

Simon: Where's the rest of the club then!?

Issei sighs.

Issei: Rias wants us to wait and strategize.

Simon: I'm not gonna be waiting.

Issei: Yeah, that's why I thought to come get you!

Simon smiles.

Simon: Alright, let's go beat up a priest!

Later—

After some travel, they both made it to an old abandoned church in the middle of the forest. Simon transformed into Hellbent, kicking the door open.

Issei: Man, this place is creepy.

There was a clapping sound that echoed through the room, Freed stepping out from the darkness.

Freed: So, we meet again! Glad you could make it!

Hellbent: What a surprise.

Freed: Here's the thing. I pride myself on the fact that I never have to fight a devil more than once. And yet here you are!

Hellbent: Well, get used to it.

Freed: If there's one thing I will not allow it's being mocked by maggot devils in the house of god!

He draws his sword and gun.

Freed: The thought of tearing away your flesh and eating it piece by piece makes my mouth water!~

He licked his gun with a wicked look on his face.

Hellbent: Let's cut to the chase already!

Freed: Oh, fine. Let's finish you-

In a green flash, XLR8 bolted forward, a second green flash revealing Four Arms, who slams two fists into the priest's face and sending him straight through the wall.

Four Arms:... Let's keep going.

Issei:... Heh, this is gonna be easy!

Simon became human and ran with Issei downstairs. They. And to the bottom and found the basement filled with people in red robes, along with a a group of what Simon assumed to be angels tying Asia to a cross.

Simon: Yo, we beat that priest with the rape fetish. Can you give us our friend back!?

The angels turn around, surprised by the sudden voices.

Raynare: Huh? Ghh. Of course you'd show up Issei...

She looks to Simon.

Raynare: And you must be that pure breed who Freed had brought up. Cute disguise~. A well crafted one too. I can't sense a drop your demonic energy!

Simon: You could say I'm built different.

He shrugs.

Asia: S-Simon and Issei!?

Issei: Don't worry Asia! We're here to get you out!

Mittelt: Geez, you guys got here early. I was supposed to stand guard and slice you up before you had so much of stepped foot on the property!

Simon: Sorry to disappoint, but you kidnapped our friend so let's call it even.

Kalawarner: We cannot let you interfere with this ritual.

Dohnaseek: It's impressive that you've gotten past the priest we hired, but this is where you die.

He draws his blade, the other four doing the same.

Raynare: I'll begin the ritual, you take out the trash-

*Woosh*

XLR8 zooms past them, roundhouse kicking Raynare in the face. In a green flash, he became Four Arms and grabbed the other three by their arms and spun them around before throwing them at Raynare, becoming Heatblast and pointing both his arms forward. They all scatter before flying after Simon.

Raynare: You little-

"BOOST!!!"

Energy swirls around Issei's red gauntlet before he jumps up, striking Raynare to the ground.

Issei: We have unfinished business you dusty bitch!!!

Kalawarner went to help but a blast of sludge knocked her back into a wall.

Spitter: Hey now! Let them settle their business, you three are with me!

His Omnitrix dial turns purple before the same long striped tentacles burst out from his mouth, grabbing Mittelt and using her as a shield to block an attack from Dohnaseek. The girl tried cutting the tentacles but it didn't even break the skin(?).

Mittelt: H-Huh!? B-b-but my blade- WAH!!!

She got thrown at Dohnaseek, the two crashing into each other and falling back.

Mittelt: Grrr... What are we paying you guys for!? Do something!!!

The people in robes all pull out weapons to help the angels. In response, Simon transformed into Swampfire, placing his hands on the ground as vines sprouted, rapidly spreading through the room and tangling up the cultists. The three angels jump back to the fight only for the vines to sprout flowers, unleashed a burst of pollen into the air.

Swampfire: Smell that?

Before they could answer, Swampfire smirks.

Swampfire: It's Methane.

Vines suddenly cover Issei and Asia, snapping his fingers to create a small spark that suddenly caused the entire basement to ignite. The explosion shakes the angels and cultists, flinging them around and burning most of their clothes. Vines hold up the ceiling to keep everyone alive, a green flash just barely visible through the smoke.

Simon: My device here has a handy ability: scanning others dna to make a replica of that species. It's why you can't read me as a demon.

His voice echoed through the room along with his footsteps. He had reached where Issei had just broken free from, walking over to the injured Raynare and plucking a feather from her injured wing and holding it over to his watch, the device enveloping him in a new light. The smoke cleared as everyone stood trembling.

Devine Judgement: Now you must face Devine Judgment.

His voice echoed as he crosses his arms.

Devine Judgement: You have defied god. You claim to wish to appease him yet you do things like this! Kidnapping innocent girls, killing humans, working with actual rapists. Seriously, that Freed guy is NOT getting into heaven!

He sighs.

Devine Judgement: If you which to ever see the insides of those pearly gates, you will stop. Make the world a better place by helping others instead of slaughtering those you deem as being unworthy of life!

He holds out his hands as a light starts to fill the room.

Devine Judgement: Now, take this second chance I'm giving you to heart, and go REALLY make the world a better place!

Every one of the cultists vanished, the angels being left tied up in chains.

Devine Judgment: As for you four...

They all had looks of fear, still injured from the fight.

Devine Judgement: You are all on thin ice. Lay a finger on another demon unprompted, and I will make sure you never do again.

Raynare: B-But you're an Angel!!! Why on earth would you ever vouch for those devils-

Devine Judgement: Demons.

Raynare: YOU SHOULD WANT TO SLAUGHTER THEM AS WELL!!! WE NEVER VENTURE INTO THE UNDERWORLD, WE ONLY ATTACK THOSE WHO METTLE WITH HUMANS!!'

Devine Judgement: And you don't? You yourself impaled Issei after a day of knowing him. If you wish to strike down demons and devils who are causing actual problems, be my guest. But if the pervert upstairs is anything to go by, you weren't doing that. So let me just...

He held out his hand, red marks on their chests in the shape of eyes appear.

Kalawarner: A-A marking!?!?

Dohnaseek: What did you... do...?

Devine Judgement: They still work no matter what I transform into. If you get up to anything bad, I'll fly in and put a put a stop to it.

He turns and walks away.

Simon: Issei. You good!?

He looks to the boy, why was brushing some dirt and plant residue off himself.

Issei: Y-Yeah. But is-

*Shling*

With a slice from a blade of light, the vines covering the girl falling away. Asia was trembling, squeezing her teary eyes shut tight and whimpering.

Simon(thinking): Oh, I should probably say-

Devine Judgment: Be not afraid, Asia.

She suddenly stopped, eyes shooting open and going wide. She looks to Simon, eyes twinkling in wonder.

Asia: a-a-a-a-a.... A-Angel...?

Devine Judgment: Sorry, but only a replica.

He motioned to his belt, displaying the Omnitrix symbol.

Asia:... W-Wait. S-S-Simon!?!?

Devine Judgment: Indeed.

The dial blinks red before turning him back to human. In the back, Issei watches Simon untying Asia. He thought to himself for a moment.

Issei(thinking): Man. I thought this guy was kind of an ass when we first met, but... he came to help with no hesitation, saved Asia and didn't even kill anyone...

He looks to the trapped angels.

Issei(thinking): Heh. Here I was thinking that I would be the one getting a harem. Oh well, there's more girls out there so I guess he can keep her and Rias.

He sighs.

Simon: You guys wanna go get something to eat after this?

Asia: Oh, umm... Y-Yeah!

Issei: Eh, I could eat.

Simon looks to the captured angels.

Simon: You guys hungry?

They seem surprised and confused.

Raynare: J-Just leave us here! You've humiliated us enough!

Simon: You sure?

Raynare: Absolutely-

Mittelt: Actually, I'm kinda hungry...

Raynare: Shut up!

Dohnaseek: Eh, I could eat.

Kalawarner: Welllllll....

Raynare: ARE YOU KIDDING ME!?!?!?

Later—

We see Simon, Issei, Asia and the angels at a cheap restaurant, now in casual clothes eating cheeseburgers. Simon, Asia and Mittelt were the only ones actually enjoying the food, while everyone else was on edge.

Mittelt: These are the best burgers ever!!!

Simon: Yeah. Best part is it's dirt cheap!

Asia: I wish I knew of this place sooner!

They kept eating, Raynare and Issei specifically in a staring competition.
