章 9: 8
Chapter 8
xXxXxXxXxX
Vince sat down on a chair inside his home as he reviewed the events on what just happened. He then frowned as he was deep in thought.
'Knock, Knock!'
[Vince, someone is knocking on the door.] Yume called out.
For a minutes Vince didn't respond and just seemingly ignored everything.
[Vince!]
Vince was then brought out of his thoughts as he looked at Yume. "What is it, Yume?"
'Knock, Knock!'
"Oh."
[You should answer that Vince.] She said.
"I suppose." Vince got up from his chair and opened the door. To his slight surprise Rias was standing their with slightly worried look on her face. "Is there a reason why you're here?"
"I'm here to apologize for what I've nearly done. I couldn't think straight at the time and I wanted to get out of that engagement." Rias answered sadly.
"I see why you did it, having met him. I don't think it was a nice thing to do, but I can see from your point of view why you would." He replied in a slightly irritated tone.
"I'm sorry Vince."
Seeing the sincerity in her eyes Vince hesitantly nodded. "I'll overlook this as long as you don't drag me into a situation like that."
"Thank you, Vince." Rias spoke with a smile.
Vince rolled his eyes, "By the way, there was a flaw in your earlier plan."
"What do you mean?" She asked, sounding confused.
"Judging by how Riser acts, do you really think he would have cut of the engagement if you lost your virginity?" Vince sighed and continued after seeing her questioning look. "Judging by his personality, he probably would have wanted to be with you more. After all, he wouldn't have to go through the inconveniences of waiting when a woman losses her virginity."
Rias blinked twice before she nearly facepalmed. "Geez, when you explain it like that, it sounds like it would only benefit Riser."
Vince smirked as he saw the look of realization on her face. "Yeah, so you're plan sucked from the very beginning Rias."
"You don't have to rub it in Vince." She said glaring at him.
"Is there anything else you wanted to talk about? I get the feeling that this conversation isn't far from over." He stated with a small frown.
Rias nodded as she began to explain what happened after he left. "...So I would like to ask you to help train my peerage for that week."
"I see. So your rating match is in a week and you want me to help you train your peerage, in a lodging your family owns." Vince stated, assessing the situation.
"Yes, but I wouldn't ask of this for free and you're welcome to use the cottage as to train yourself as well." Rias replied.
Vince closed his eyes, deep in thought. (Hmm... Well, in doing that I would get some payment from Rias and I get to train physically. But I can't use anything holy related. I don't want to accidently hurt them before their match. But I could also use that week to look for my friends or go to Kyoto, unless...)
"I'll help you on the condition that you won't interrupt or undermine my training methods. In exchange for doing this I want you to track down my friends." He said opening his eyes.
"I see. Well, that's fair enough. Who are your friends?" Rias asked curiously.
"I'm looking for either one of these two. It doesn't matter who I find first though. Their names are Kasumi and Hayate the same ones that have entered the Dead or Alive tournaments in the past." Vince explained to her.
Rias' eyes widened, "You know Kasumi and Hayate!? But how?"
"We... have a history together. I want to see them since I haven't a while." He then looked at Rias. "Can you do it?"
"Yes, it'll take some time though. Finding two ninjas isn't exactly easy." She replied with a nod.
"Good. So when will you start training?" He asked curiously.
"Tommorow in the morning. Meet us at the clubroom." Rias answered seriously.
"Fine, I'll see you tommorow. Later." Vince said to her.
"You two, goodbye Vince." Rias then turned around and left, causing Vince to close the door.
He sighed and lied down on his futon. "Well, at least I got some progress done, right Yume?"
[Yes, I believe with this, things will go much more smoothly for us.] Yume stated with a smile.
"I hope so." Vince said as he closed his eyes.
(Next Day)
Issei gasped for air as he slowly walked up the hill while carrying bags that looked to be at least twice his weight. "...Hee-hee."
Vince rolled his eyes as he casually walked up the hill with the other club members, wearing a sleeveless black shirt, with a pair of long black cargo pants that has a red lining that went around the waist of his pants, while carrying a small backpack with his katana inside of the backpack. (This guy is really underdeveloped in the muscle area.)
He then noticed Akeno looking at him. "Is there a problem Akeno?"
Akeno smiled as she looked at Vince. "I didn't know you were muscular, Vince-kun."
Vince blinked in confusion until he realized that he is wearing a sleeveless shirt. "Oh, what about it?"
"Ufufu, nothing." Akeno spoke as she walked ahead of him.
"Whatever."
Asia looked at Issei worriedly then spoke. "...I will help as well."
"It's okay, since Issei won't be able to get stronger if he can't do this much." Rias replied with a smile.
Kiba walked past Issei with a smile while carrying a enormous luggage on his back. "...See you later."
Vince noticed Issei falling back and sighed. He stopped walked back to Issei and whispered. "Hey Issei."
"...What?"
"You have a very little stamina, how are you going to please a harem If you can't even lift that up?" Vince asked, provoking him.
Issei stopped dead in his tracks until he came into a realization. He then started running past Vince as fast as he could. "Uoryaaaaa!"
Vince smirked a little as he saw Issei run up a hill. "Sucker."
[That was a little mean Vince.] Yume said as she held back from laughing.
"It had to be said." He replied nonchantly.
"What did you say to Issei to make him run that fast?" Rias asked as she walked towards him.
"That he won't be able to please a harem, with the little stamina he has." Vince answered without skipping a beat.
Rias shook her head in disbelief, but smiled. "I had a feeling you would say something like that."
Vince took out a book and started reading as he walked. "I suppose."
She looked noticed read the book that looked like a manga and look behind him to see. "What manga are you reading?"
"It's not a manga Rias, it's a visual novel. The main herione looks like you." Vince replied, causing Rias to lightly blush. He then put his book away and lightly smirked at her. "But I have to say if I compared you to her, you still have a ways to go."
"What's that supposed to mean Vince?" She asked as her eyes narrowed.
Vince said nothing but bonked Rias on her head with the book he was reading. "You're a little slow on the uptake so have fun figuring that out." He then quickly ran ahead.
"Vince, get back here!" Rias shouted as she chased after Vince.
[Why did you do that Vince?] Yume asked sighing.
"To mess with her." He said with a small smirk.
Vince chuckled as he finished running up the mountain with Rias quickly behind him, she then tackled him into the ground. "I got you!"
Vince then noticed Rias was straddling him and smirked. "You know, if you wanted to be on top, you could have just asked Rias. Even though I prefer the top more."
Rias blinked twice before she looked down and noticed she is straddling him. She quickly got up from him with a small blush on your face. "You jerk."
"Ara ara, are you two getting comfortable together?" Akeno asked as she appeared next to them.
"Akeno!"
"That depends on your definition of comfortable." Vince replied as he got up from the ground. He then walked into the mansion nonchantly, as if nothing ever happened.
xXxXxXxXxX
Vince leaned against the wall as he and Issei saw the girls go change in one room and Kiba going into another room. He turned to the two and smiled. "Don't peek you two."
"I will seriously punch you, bastard!" Issei shouted as he tried to shake his fist but couldn't.
Vince however extended his hand and pointed it at Kiba. "Think fast Kiba."
A bolt of blue lightning came out of Vince's hand and came straight at Kiba forcing him to quickly duck, narrowly avoiding the bolt of lighting and enter in the room with the door locked.
"Wasn't that a bit extreme?" Issei asked curiously.
"Kiba's a "Knight" if he can't dodge it, well Rias is screwed. Literally, after the ceremony." He stated with a shrug.
"Don't make twisted jokes about Buchou, like that!" Issei shouted.
"Yeah, yeah." He said waving his hand.
"Hey Vince, why are you here? You're not in Buchou's peerage." Issei said to him.
"Did you even hear what Rias said when we were at the clubroom?" He asked deadpanning.
"No, I was still sleepy." Issei admitted with a sheepish laugh.
"Rias asked me to help her train, her peerage. In exhange, I get to train here on my own leisure and she'll help me with something." Vince stated with a shrug.
"With what?"
Before Vince could answer Kiba and the other girls came out all dressed in their school jerserys. (Talk about good timing. I didn't want to answer that question and I was getting tired of waiting.)
Rias noticed the damage from the bolt of lightning and turned to Vince. "What happened?"
"I nearly zapped Kiba with lightning." He answered casually.
"That was a close call." Kiba stated with a sigh.
"So Rias, how exactly do you want to start on the training." Vince asked trying to skip the topic.
Rias shook her head at him trying to skip to conversation, but nodded. "Yuuto will be helping with Issei wield a sword and Asia will have Akeno help her with magic. After a few hours we will switch."
"Fine. Koneko, do you want to spar with me?" He asked looking at her.
"...You'll be hurt." Koneko spoke.
Vince took out his gray cellphone and pressed the button on it, causing his eyes to turn red and his pupils to turn into slits, signifying him turning into a devil. "There, my body is more durable. Is that good enough?"
Koneko nodded and walked outside with Vince.
(With Koneko)
Koneko threw a punch at Vince to which he ducked and followed up with a kick to the stomach. Koneko easily took the attack grabbed his leg to which he responded by punching her face. She grabbed his other arm and punched his chest, only for Vince to quickly spin his body, narrowly avoiding the punch. He then used his free leg and sweeped kick Koneko, forcing her to let go and jump over the kick. Vince spun his body again and landed with his hands and legs slightly extended from the ground.
"...Not bad." Koneko said sounding slightly impressed.
"Likewise." Vince quickly got up and started running circles around Koneko trying to confuse her.
Vince then turned and aimed a punch at her ribcage. Koneko easily took the hit and countered with a kick to the face, to which Vince narrowly avoided by quickly moving his head out of the way. He then jumped back and looked at Koneko.
"I don't have much to say, you already know what is your weakness. You're good, but you can improve your skills more." Vince stated seriously.
"..."
"Since we're short on time the only thing I can do in this case is spar with you, so can further refine your skills." He answered.
Koneko said nothing but nodded, taking everything what he said into account.
"The problem I see is that you're too slow. But that's understandable since you're a "Rook" .But your fighting style of helps accomidate you since you're mostly trying to grapple and throw your opponents." Vince analyzed.
Koneko then pointed her fist at Vince. " ...Vince-sempai, we'll have another round. Don't hold back."
"You sure?"
Koneko nodded and threw a punch at him, to which he evaded.
Vince shook his head and coated his hands in water. "Don't say I didn't warn you."
(With Kiba)
Vince sighed, with his eyes no longer being red due to him timing out of his devil form. (I hardly got a break before swapping to Kiba.)
"Yeah, but Vince-kun do you know how to use a sword?" Kiba asked curiously.
"I know a thing or two." He answered cryptically.
"I see." Kiba said frowning a little.
(It's a good thing Hayate taught me how to hold a sword properly. I don't have style but that doesn't matter.) Vince thought as he picked up a boken.
"Are you ready Vince-kun?" Kiba asked him.
"Yeah."
Kiba disappeared from Vince's sights and swung his boken at him. Vince quickly responded by blocking the swing with his own boken and quickly countered with a horizontal slash, to which Kiba responded by blocking it with his own boken. The two clashed their bokens against each other, until the two decided to jump back.
"You have good reflexes Vince-kun." Kiba said with a smile.
"You're not so bad yourself." Vince immediately charged at Kiba and thrusted his boken at him. Kiba responded by evading the thrusts as Vince repeatedly kept thrusting his boken. He then followed up with an uppercut slash to which Kiba blocked with his boken.
He then jumped back as he noticed Kiba was about swing his boken at his head. Vince breathed slightly heavily as he frowned. Vince coated his boken in water and quickly charged at Kiba.
Seeing what Vince is doing, Kiba channeled demonic energy into his boken and charged at him. The two bokens made a loud snapping noise at impact. To Vince's surprise both of the boken broke in half.
"Hahaha, I guess it's a tie then Vince-kun." Kiba admitted with a smile.
"I guess so." Vince sat down on the floor with his breathing slightly ragged.
Kiba then tossed a bottle of water at Vince to which he caught. "Are you okay?"
Vince opened the bottle of water and took a sip. "Yeah, I just need a little break. I didn't take one after sparring with Koneko."
Kiba winced a little, "No wonder you're tired."
Vince took a gulp of water then closed the bottle. "Moving on, from what I can see. You're pretty skilled Kiba. Aside from the regular weakness of a "Knight" the only problem I see is that your attacks lack power."
"I see. I can also tell that when I fought you Vince-kun, you hardly have a style and you seem to have little experience in fighting with a sword, but you can properly hold a sword and your reflexes are really good." Kiba informed him.
Vince nodded as he twirled the water bottle in his hand. "I know. Either way, considering that we're on limited time, the best thing to do is just to keep practicing and build up more experience."
"I agree and now that I know that I need to work more on my attack power, I can improve on it." Kiba admitted with a nod.
"Pretty much." Vince picked up two bokens and tossed one at Kiba to which he catched. "You ready for round two, Kiba?"
(Thrity minutes later, with Akeno)
Vince sweatdropped as he looked at Akeno smiling sadistically at him in her jersey. "...What's with you?"
"Fufufu, I couldn't wait to spar with you Vince-kun." Akeno giggled with one her hands covering her mouth.
(Ugh, does this have to do with me using lightning?) He thought as he took out his cellphone and pressed a button, as his eyes turned red and his pupils turned into slits, signifying his transformation into a devil.
"Let's begin Vince-kun." Akeno smiled and shot out lightning from her hands.
Vince reacted by ducking and evading most of Akeno's lightning strikes. He noticed a lightning bolt headed towards him and created a shield made out of lightning to block the attack.
"Come on, Vince-kun! I'm not gonna stop until you call me Akeno-sama!" Akeno said with a sadistic smile as she shot out more lightning bolts at Vince.
"Yeah, I don't think so." Vince extended his hand and shot out a stream of black lightning to counter the lightning bolts. He then quickly shot out a large black lightning bolt at Akeno to which she evaded, but gave enough time for Vince to hide behind a tree.
(I wonder if this has to do with the times I pissed off Akeno.) Vince wondered as he looked from the tree.
Akeno smiled as she looked around. "Vince-kun, where are you? If you show up, I'll let you play as "Master" next!"
(Is she talking about fighting or sex?) He thought shaking his head.
Akeno destroyed a tree with lightning and smiled when she found Vince. "Ufufu, so this is where you were hiding Vince-kun."
Vince's eye twitched as he quickly tossed a black lightning shaped grenade at Akeno. The grenade stuck to Akeno's stomach, surprising her. Vince quickly ran out of the way as the grenade released a large electrical explosion.
'BOOM!'
"Ara ara, that wasn't very nice Vince-kun. I'll have to punish you." Akeno said as she came out of the explosion with most of her jersey destroyed, showing her lacy black bra and panties.
Vince rolled his eyes, but slightly smirked. "Then try it, if you can Akeno."
Akeno sadistic smile widen as her hands crackled with yellow lightning. "I will, Vince-kun."
Just like Akeno, Vince's hands also crackled with lightning, only that it was black. "Then let's see you try!"
The two relased their respective attacks at each other. The two attacks collided with each other and caused a large explosion.
'BOOM!'
Vince came out of the smoke coughing as he shook his head. His clothes were tattered as a small amount of smoke came out of him. (I'm not trying that again unless I'm at a safer distance.)
Akeno came out of the smoke coughing lightly as her bra and panties were destroyed, revealing her body. "Ufufu, that was very powerful Vince-kun."
Vince pinched the bridge of nose as a small amount of blood came from his nose as he blushed a little. "Akeno, you're naked."
"Ara, you're cute when your flustered." Akeno spoke giggling.
"Shut up." Vince took of his shirt and covered Akeno with it. "It's a little torn from that blast, but it should cover you up a bit."
Akeno lightly blushed but smiled. "Thank you Vince-kun."
"Yeah, after we finish changing let's come back here again. Either way, you're strong but you can do so much more with your lightning Akeno." Vince stated as he created a black lightning shaped katana. He walked towards a tree that he noticed that was unaffected by the explosion and slashed it in half with his katana before it disappeared.
"You seem very versatile with your lightning Vince-kun. When did you activate your Sacred Gear?" Akeno asked with a smile.
Vince just walked away, "Just be sure to come back here after you changed. After which, I'll teach you on the versatlity of lightning."
Akeno frowned at the way Vince dismissed her question, but walked away.
(With Issei)
Vince folded his arms as he looked at Issei who was lied down on the ground completely exhausted. "Rias didn't hold back on her training methods, did she?"
"No. Is this going to be the same for the next nine days?" Issei asked exhausted.
"Yes, your body needs to get used to taking Ddraig's power, it would be dangerous if your body didn't get stronger." Seeing Issei's confused look, Vince sighed but continued. "Think of it like this, what would happen if you put too much air in a balloon?"
"It would pop." Issei said simply.
"Yeah, but the point is it wouldn't be able to take anymore. The same thing applies to you and your Boosted Gear. If there's too much your body won't be able to take it and it's not going to be pretty." Vince explained, causing Issei to pale.
"Either way, I'm not going to train you physically." Vince said to him.
"You're not, why?" Issei asked confused.
"You already are being trained physically to the limit, if I train you physically then your body won't be able to handle it and your body will probably break down from the stress." Vince explained.
Issei nodded but then looked confused. "What are we going to do?"
"I'm going to help you learn how to control your Sacred Gear. You can have all of the power in the world, but it won't mean anything if you can't control it." Vince answered seriously. "Now I want you to summon your Boosted Gear Issei."
"Alright, let's go Boosted Gear!" Issei called out, summoning his boosted gear.
(With Asia)
"Ano, Vince-san what are we going to do?" Asia wondered nervously.
"Before I answer that, I want to ask. Do you think you want to fight, or heal?" Vince asked looking at her.
"I-I want to heal." Asia answered, slightly surprised at the question.
(If I recall correctly, Asia is like me. She unlocked her Sacred Gear at a young age.) Vince thought before he shook his head. "You already have a good understanding on Twilight Healing, right?"
"Yes, I do. Why do you ask?" She asked slightly confused.
"I just wanted to make sure." Vince folded his arms. "I'll be doing the same thing I did to Issei a while ago."
"What are you going to do?" Asia asked curiously.
"I'll be training you on how to better control your Sacred Gear. It's obvious that you don't want to fight but it would help in the long run for you to better control it. I don't know much about the workings of Devil magic, so I'll let Akeno take care of that." He explained.
"Okay Vince-san. Thank you for, taking the time for teaching me." Asia said with a smile.
"Your welcome."
(With Rias)
"Why are we here Vince?" Rias asked curiously.
"I'm also training you Rias. You do want to beat Riser, right?" Vince asked goading her.
"Yes, I do." Rias then crossed her arms causing her bust to rise, which didn't go unoticed by him. "What do you want me to do?"
"Fire off your Power of Destruction, at that tree." He said pointing towards that tree.
Rias raised an eyebrow at the request, but nodded and fired a sphere, using the Power of Destruction.
The sphere completely destroyed the tree leaving no trace, but Vince frowned. "I see, this might be a problem."
"What's the problem, Vince?" Rias asked slightly worried.
"Your control is horrible Rias. You put way too much energy into that attack, if you were fighting, all they would have to do is dodge and wait until you get tired." Vince informed her.
Rias frowned at the assessment. "Then what would you suggest?"
"You need to learn how to effectively control the amount of power you put. Just like Issei, you need to learn how to control." Vince stated.
She shook her head in disbelief, but nodded. "Okay, so how would you have me learn how to control the output of my Power of Destruction?"
"Meditate." He said simply.
"Meditate!?" Rias exclaimed in surprise.
"Yeah, now sit down and close your eyes. Or you could always give up now and marry Riser." Vince answered, purposely pushing her buttons.
"I won't give up." Rias said as she sat down.
Vince shook his head and went to Rias. "Your doing it wrong Rias, your body is too tense here..." He grabbed Rias by the shoulders and gently pushed her shoulders down. Vince then gently grabbed Rias' legs and crossed them together.
Rias lightly blushed at the way he touched her, but closed her eyes. "Thank you, Vince."
"Now then, I want you clear your mind and focus solely on gathering the Power of Destruction, instead of firing it, just focus on controlling it." Vince answered.
Rias nodded as a crimson aura enveloped her body.
(Alone)
Vince stood in the middle of the river as he raised his hands up in the air. The water around the river swirled around his body as his eyes were closed. (I have nine days, what can I train on in those nine days by myself? My skills are already getting refined because I'm sparing and mediating with the others.)
He stood still for a moment, until he opened his eyes and the water splashed into the river. (I think for now I'll create a katana made out of my lightning during these nine days. It'll be shaped like the Totsuka-no-Tsurugi, kind of like a practice blade.)
Vince walked out of the river and looked at a giant boulder in front of him. He created a lightning shaped katana and swiftly sliced through the boulder. The boulder broke off into two pieces, without looking he held his lightning katana in a reverse grip and shot out a ball of lightning from the katana at the boulder, further destroying it.
The lightning katana disappeared as Vince exhaled deeply. (...I got it, I'll train on making a technique I always wanted to do.)
(I better get some fish for dinner.) Vince walked back to the river and placed his hands on the river. He channeled lightning into the river as a large current of electricity completely enveloped the river, a few moments later multiple fish rose from the river with smoke coming out of the fish. "Jackpot."
Unbeknownst to him, Rias and Akeno were watching Vince training, completely surprised at his control over water and lightning.
xXxXxXxXxX
Everyone sat down on table eating with both Issei and Vince eating at fast pace. Vince quickly took a piece of boar meat and wolfed it down, along with a ball of rice and a large fish that he got from hunting.
[Vince, Issei-san please don't eat so fast.] Yume called out worriedly.
Issei then started choking as he quickly took a large cup of water and quickly drank it down. "Phew... That was close."
Vince on the other hand created a ball of water and shoved it down his throat as he swallowed the food. "Don't worry about it Yume."
"Yume does have a point, you two shouldn't have eaten so fast." Rias chided.
"Sorry Buchou." Issei said with a sheepish smile.
"I'm not sorry Rias." Vince answered bluntly.
Rias shook her head disbelief at Vince's bluntness but nodded, knowing that he is mostly a blunt person.
Vince finished eating his plate and breathed a sigh of relief. "Thanks for the food, Akeno."
"Your welcome Vince-kun. Would you like seconds?" She asked curiously.
"No I'm full. Anyway, thanks for the meal." Vince said as he got up and put away his plates.
"Ufufu, you really do eat a lot Vince-kun." Akeno spoke with a smile.
"Well, you are a really good cook Akeno." He replied with a shrug.
The rest of the conversation then went into Issei asking about the strategy about running away. Vince for the most part tuned out most the conversation, after finding it not really interesting.
"Let's take a bath after the meal. It's an outdoor bath so it's wonderful." Rias said.
"I'm not going to peek, Issei-kun." Kiba said with a smile.
Vince said nothing but brought out his book and started reading. (I wonder, what type of technique should I try to do...)
"Idiot! D-Don't blurt it out!" Issei shouted at him.
"Oh, Issei. Do you want to peek at us while we are taking a bath?" Rias asked causing everyone to look at him.
Vince held back the urge to chuckle at the awkward atmosphere that surrounded Issei.
"Vince, do you want to take a bath with us? Issei you could also take a bath with Asia." Rias asked causing Asia to turn bright red.
"Eeeeh!?" Issei shouted in shock.
"Do you really want me to answer that?" Vince asked as he rolled his eyes.
"Of course. How about you, Akeno?" She asked her.
"I don't mind if it's Vince-kun. Ufufu. I saw Vince-kun's back earlier, it's very board, I might want to wash it." Akeno replied with a smile.
Vince snorted and continued to read his manga, (She never stops her teasing.)
"Lastly Koneko? How about it, would you prefer to bathe with Vince or Issei?" Rias asked her.
"...Neither."
"The sentiment is the same midget." Vince replied casually, causing Koneko to glare at him.
"Then, it's a no. Too bad, Issei. Vince, would you like to bathe with only me and Akeno?" Rias asked with a slightly provocative expression.
"No." He replied with a deadpan expression.
"What!? How can you deny taking a bath with Buchou and Akeno-san!?" Issei shouted looking at Vince like he was crazy.
"It's because I know they're trying to tease me." He said simply, unaffected by his shouting.
"Oh? And if we weren't teasing you, would you bathe with us?" Rias asked with a amused smile.
Vince however took out his manga and started reading. "I'll leave the answer to your imaginations."
(Ten minutes later: Baths)
Vince walked into the bath with a towel around his waist as he saw Issei trying to peak on the other side with Kiba shaking his head. "Is he trying to take a peek?"
"Yes."
"Shut it you two!" Issei whispered harshly before went back into peeking.
"If you want to look that bad, why not just go the other way around and hide from there?" Vince asked folding his arms.
"You shouldn't encourage such behavior, Vince-kun." Kiba reprimanded.
Vince casually waved off Kiba and started to walk until Issei grabbed Vince's arm with a strong grip. "What?"
"No way am I going down on my own. This was your idea, Vince. You're coming too." Issei said firmly.
"Let go of me." Vince said as he got his arm out of Issei's grip. "Anyway, we shouldn't go now. It'll be too obvious, just strike up a conversation then we go, it'll be a good distraction."
Kiba just shook his head, "How do you know this Vince-kun?"
"Not telling."
"So Vince, what type of girls do you like?" Issei asked, loud enough for the other side to hear.
Vince glared at Issei then whispered. "Out of all the questions, why the hell would you ask that!?"
"It'll grab Buchou and Akeno-san's attention and I'm curious." Issei admitted while whispering.
Vince's eye twitched but sighed, slightly surprised at Issei's insight. "I like older women."
"Really? But wait, doesn't that mean you're younger than Buchou and Akeno-san?" Issei asked, loud enough for them to hear.
"Yes, and that's all I'll say. Later." Vince then gestured for Issei and Kiba to follow him with the latter shaking his head in disbelief.
After the three guys sneaked towards the girl's side. Issei grinned as he looked through the girl's side from a small peephole Vince made by lightly puncturing a small hole in the wall."Wow! This is awesome!"
"I'll say, Akeno is defintely the biggest, while Rias has a nice volume." Vince added casually, causing Kiba to facepalm.
"Why are you helping him?" Kiba asked.
"You'll see in a moment, Kiba. Just get ready to follow my lead." Vince replied with a small smirk.
"I know right? Ahh...Asia-chan's breasts suits her angelic personality." Issei said with a sigh.
Vince sweatdropped at Issei's exaggerated description but nodded. He then looked closely and pinched the bridge of his nose as he saw Akeno and Rias' body more upclosely.
Vince then shook his head. (I know Yasaka is bigger than Akeno, but I wonder if Kasumi got any bigger.) His eyes then widened when he noticed Rias turn around.
(Well shit. I don't want to get caught and I want payback for Issei making me admit that...) Vince kicked Issei's back into the wall loud enough to hear a noise. He quickly went to Kiba and whispered, "We have to go now."
Kiba nodded and disappeared, via his "Knight" speed, while Vince quickly caught up Kiba's speed after coating his legs with lightning.
"Owww..." Issei said as he rubbed his back.
"Issei, if we said you can't peep. You can't peep." Rias stated firmly as she and the other girls appeared behind him, much to his shock.
"W-Wait! This wasn't my idea! This was Vince's idea and Kiba joined-" Issei then turned around to see both Vince and Kiba gone.
Koneko glared angirly at Issei as she cracked her knuckles.
(With Vince and Kiba)
Vince sighed in relief as he and Kiba were near the boy's room. "That was close."
"Yeah, thanks for the warning Vince-kun." Kiba said also breathing a sigh of relief.
"I'm surprised you actually joined." Vince admitted, slightly surprised.
"It was to keep you and Issei-kun out of trouble, but you kicked him into the wall." Kiba replied with a sigh.
"Think of it as endurance training. Besides, it was payback for him making me admit what type of girls I like." He answered with a shrug.
"But you were the one who gave Issei-kun advice." Kiba retorted.
"It was either that or hear him complain for the rest of the bath." Vince replied with a deadpan expression.
"Aaaaaah! Someone saaave meee!" Issei shouted as he was beaten badly by the girls.
(Music to my ears.) Vince thought as he walked into his room with a smirk.

Vince lied down on his bed and closed his eyes, (I have to admit, today was pretty good. I was able to refine my skills and get a good idea on what I can do on my spare time.)
(Dream)
"Vince, come over here. You need to see this." Elena said as she dragged a thirteen year old Vince.
"What is it mom?" He asked with an annoyed expression.
"Just look at the T.V." She replied moving his head towards the tv.
Vince's eyes widened when he saw Kasumi on T.V. fighting. "Kasumi, what the hell?!"
Elena sighed and bonked him on the head. "Watch your language Vince, you're only thirteen years old. And to answer your question, this is the Dead or Alive tournament."
"Dead or Alive?"
"Yes, it's the first fighting tournament made and sponsored by a big company called DOATEC." Elena explained.
Vince nodded and went back to looking at the T.V. watching Kasumi fight with a small blush on his face. (Kasumi really looks good.)
Elena noticed the small blush and smirked. "I guess this means that in a few years Kasumi might be my daughter-in-law."
"Shut up!" Vince shouted with a more noticeable blush on his face. (I have a bad feeling. Be careful Kasumi.)
(Dream End: Next day)
Vince woke up from his bed breathing heavily. (Another dream. Why am I remembering this stuff now?)
[Vince, is everything okay?] Yume asked worriedly.
"Yeah, I'm okay Yume." He said shaking his head.
[Do you want to talk about it?] She asked him.
"I'm just remembering a few things." Vince stated as he got up from his bed.

Authors Note: I'll be honest, I had to redo the chapter a few times before I got think it was good. But as you can see Vince decided to help train Rias and his peerage. Now for the explanations.
Vince decided to help train Rias and her peerage because it would also benefit him more if he did. With him being able to train himself after training the others at his own leisure and getting information about his friends, it would have been dumb not to accept.
While Vince is trying his best to train them, do note that this is his first time training someone. So he is bound to make a few mistakes here and there. He isn't perfect after all.
This whole chapter was about Vince along with the other members, interacting more while training with each other. I wanted to focus more on the interactions and get them to know each other a little bit more.
Vince may have seem a bit OOC, but it is a part of his personality. When he's not being serious, he does like to tease a little bit, while being blunt and sarcastic from time to time. Also, for those of you who might be interested the visual novel herione that Vince is saying that looks like Rias is the main protagonist from a visual novel called Mahou Tsukai no Yoru. I'm not spoiling it but after a certain event they look really similar. It's nothing important but I just wanted to point it out for just for fun.
I didn't want to be lazy so I decided to had a few small sparing scenes between Kiba, Koneko and Akeno. Along with what Vince wanted to train the other club members in. Like I explained earlier, Vince isn't perfect but from his perspective training in control and improving the skills you already know are good. I also purposely left out how the fights went between Kiba, Koneko and Akeno. I'll leave it to the readers to decide who won the sparring matches.
Just one thing I want to point out, the lightning shaped katana Vince made when he was training is only shaped like the Totsuka-no-Tsurugi. It's an alternate way for him to practice on a katana without revealing the Totsuka-no-Tsurugi.
Also I know that I stated that Issei's perverted would be toned down a little bit. But I just couldn't resist writing a peeking scene. Besides, it would be a bit OOC for him to stop acting completely perverted, just like that. As for why I decided to let Vince help and join in, it was just to make it a little more light hearted and fun. Plus Vince is a healthy teenager, I shouldn't have to explain anymore than that.
As for the dread, I added it to show that Vince has seen Kasumi in a Dead or Alive tournament. He hasn't talked or seen her in person, but he did see her on T.V.
And finally I just want to say this before anybody asks, the next chapter is going to continue with the training trip, but next chapter will also include the Rating Game. The reason for this is because I didn't want to the chapter to drag on any longer.
That's all for the explanations, let me know what you think about the chapter and take care. Later.
