The old saying goes is, something has to give. With your brother's terms you have rules. What happens if you're caught breaking them? Oh boy.

Enjoy.

Koneko was thrilled that you got dressed. A last minute mirror check and you were in business. A double date with Ravel and Gasper out to hibachi. Which would be in Koneko's favor since they would be cooking in front and have little conversation across the table for you. Then a walk in the sunset. Sounds all good in dandy yet she still had some second thoughts about the conversation with Rias and "The Bird" referring to Ravel.

(If you didn't know The Bird is a term for a girl no one likes outside the boyfriend in a group of people. Five couples and all of them hate her except her boyfriend in the group? She's The Bird.)

It was quite the show. Eggs tossed in the air and watching the vegetables cut up and stirred into the fried rice. Watching the flame from the burning sake didn't bother Gasper what so ever. Maybe he was used to it for having a fire magic girlfriend. Koneko was watching her fish get cooked up and looked over at you eyeing the steak being cooked to complete perfection. A Wolf has a craving every here and there. Being civilized about it you wrap an arm around her shoulder. She was off guard as she spaced out in her overthinking mindset.

"Thanks."

"For, what?"

"Being my lover. Tonight is great."

"Yeah. And thanks for giving me strength." She smiled.

"Woah. Now that sure is a tall order. Think about that. You can easily punch my lights out and wear the pants. I mean really now."

"Be nice." She giggled as her face turned a pink.

"Love you. Cheers to tonight."

The chef continued to put on a nice show. Utensils airborne, the way he seasoned, and the people across the table doing sake chugs. Starting with the rice the sushi were coming out roll after roll after roll. Cuisine delicacies at their finest. Yet even Koneko thought even if you are unsure and not sold on the company next to you, it's always civil and refreshing to talk and have time to bond food. Wonderful food on top of that.

~~~~~

After dinner you yourself put on just a little bit of weight. So worth it. But with the sun still being up, couldn't hurt to take a stroll into town before curfew. Well two things with that... It was Lightning's set curfew and he would hurt you if he say you out and about. Especially after figuring out how your brother's never made it home that night. Having forgotten the bloodshed with help of Xenovia their wasn't any thought it your head and the sense something was wrong, missing, or plain not right. Continuing onward as Koneko held your hand and clinged and to your left Gasper locking elbows with Ravel. Low key he was getting better and making progress.

"He's manning up a bit isn't he?" Asked Koneko.

"He will go from a skirt to a kilt in no time."

"I like the man skirt." Koneko giggled.

"Oh yeah? Think they have one my size?" You ask sarcastically.

"Don't you ever..." She grumbled.

"What's up? Thought you digged the manskirt."

"I like your pants. It outlines your butt."

You went and thought about that. Then it turned into a thought deeper than what it should be. But you figured something out. "I get why guys like butts but how come women do?"

"You're a dog by default. I'm pretty sure you like butts."

"I'm talking about women like guy's butts." You blush.

"Well well." Said a voice above.

No! You turn around and look up. "Lightning. Shit! Get back." You shout.

"Speaking of skirts you got some balls being pushing curfew and most of all I said get away from that girl." He glared at you and this was the first encounter since he laid down the law. By the look at him and his wings you knew you were in trouble.

"She has nothing to do with us. Nor does my friends."

He laughed. "Really? Is that so? You know I have the power to finish you. Especially after what you did."

"Being with a girl. So bad."

He swooped down with a spiralling punch. Swinging you back and somehow landing back on your feet. "My brothers! You are a sick bastard! Killing my family! Also nothing to do with us. It's time to pay the price. I shall destroy you."

"Ha! Like those two and the rotten bitches were ever good to me. I want to kill all of you and I'm not wasting my breath." Do I have the strength like I think I do?

"You're mine!" Lightning charged up his spear of light and you were waiting to judge the timing. Though once he was almost at a full charge he stopped.

"Huh?"

A purple aura surrounded him and you looked over at Gasper standing in front of Ravel. "He's frozen. Let's run."

"I'll see you at the manor Gaspy." Ravel kissed his cheek and teleported away in her own circle.

Koneko cast a circle for the rest of you to go home. Angry and on edge you felt as if you had no choice. Feeling the bruise on your cheek you can tell how powerful he really is. I knew it. I need more training. As much as I'm pissed Gasper got involved and everyone was there fate took it's course. Another day.

Teleporting back to the manor Ravel greeted her boyfriend with a hug. "You are amazing. That is so cool."

"Thanks." Gasper blushed.

Koneko looked at you. Hurt in your state of mind. A bruised ego will heal but she thought it would be best to take action. "Wolfie let's head upstairs. I want to cuddle and talk."

"I guess that's the only that could ease the stress. I'm just," You sigh. "Annoyed, angry, and at the same time lost." You look down. Do I say sorry or thank you? Do I go outside again? Do I find them? And do I plan another hit? "Fine. I'll see Master later today or tomorrow. Let's just rest. I need you."

~~~~~

Gutsy. Calling it pretty darn close. How Gasper controlled and timed his power just right is a mystery. Something says you should have a serious talk with him. Maybe you can plan out the next move. But first off you need to know what's going on and talk with your girlfriend and Rias. Priorities my friend.

As always I hope all enjoy, vote for more, comment freely, and as always have an awesome day because you guys are the best and make this happen. Any questions or concerns are welcome. Love you all.
