Ever since he'd first laid eyes on Rapidly, something about the Holy Sword had seemed off to him, like an incessant voice in the back of his head that would only sound whenever he thought about their name and histories. It was almost as if the swords themselves were crying out in an attempt to contradict their own legend, with each blade adding yet another voice to Hill of Swords.
They were (NOT) Excalibur…yet how could they (NOT) be?
"Emiya-kun!" Sona called out, snapping the redhead out of his thoughts just in time to tilt his head to the side to avoid a length of living steel that had been aimed right at it, his eyes narrowing as he followed it back to the cackling form of Freed.
"No dozing off in class there, cock-blocker!" the Exorcist cackled, retracting the metal whip, which swiftly formed into a ribbon around his arm "Don't think I forgot how you wrecked Rapidly-tan the first time we met! Old Man Valper really tore me a new one for that." He sneered as he aimed the Nightmare at Shirou's face "Fortunately, the Boss-Man managed to nab Mimic-tan from pig-tits earlier, so we're all good now."
"You fuckers-!" Issei swore, the perverted Pawn literally chomping at the bit as he glared at the Fallen-Exorcist, only to be cut off by Rias' arm as the Gremory heiress halted him in place.
"Yes! That's just the kind of expression I'm looking for, Red Dragon Emperor!" the Fallen Star of Heaven cackled, his handsome features lined with madness as a magic circle formed before him in mid-air "Let's have a War! Rias Gremory!"
"Everyone get down!" Rias barked, holding up her hand along with Akeno and Sona to erect a shield of demonic power to deflect the spears of light that launched from Kokabiel's circle, only to cry out in surprise as Shirou ignored the warning and instead raced towards the pair "Emiya-kun!?"
"You're not going anywhere!" the Faker snarled, Kanshou and Bakuya clenched between his fists as he hurtled towards the dumbstruck Freed, only to curse as his blades seemingly passed through thin air, the Exorcists mocking cackles preceding a sudden flash of blinding light as he pulled off yet another daring escape "Damn it!"
"They're heading towards Kuoh Academy." Koneko called out from the branch of a tree, the Rook's normally impassive features looking decidedly troubled, a sentiment shared by all of the assembled devils, even before the pillar of light erupted from the sports field.
"This isn't good…" Sona mused, her features calm, though it was clear she was just as troubled as everyone else "A Fallen angel of Kokabiel's level could easily wipe out a secluded city like this."
"Not if I have anything to say about it." Rias countered, her expression cold, the waves of power that for so long had sent Shirou running for the hills intensifying to the point he almost felt pity for the Fallen Angel. Almost. "Everyone, let's go."
Little less action this chapter but damn for plot developments!
Things are heating up for our heroes? How will this battle end I wonder?
In the meantime, I have Vermin to hunt, though thankfully, I'm no longer alone.
*Crouches before the lantern and vanishes.*
Night had already fallen over the Academy by the time they finally got back to it, however, it seemed Sona had called ahead, as Tsubaki had gathered the rest of the Student Council and they were currently using their combined Demonic Power to erect a barrier over the school grounds, one that even Shirou, with his limited experience, could tell far surpassed the Bounded Field over his or Rin's homes.
The only Field which could have compared to this was the one over Ilya's castle, and then only because it had extended over the entire forest used to hide the damn thing from the outside world. While no-where near as large, only covering the academy grounds, the fact that Sona and her peerage had managed to raise such an impressive bounded field in mere moments spoke volumes of just how powerful Devils were compared to Human Magi.
"If all goes well, it should limit the resulting damage to a minimum." Sona assured them all, having taken her place in the centre of the formation along with a determined looking Saji "However, I'm sure you realise we can't keep this up indefinitely."
"We understand, Sona." Rias assured her friend and rival, the Occult Research Club, sans Kiba, standing ready beside her along with a grim-faced Shirou, the Faker grimacing as he attempted to contact Xenovia "Has there been any sign of Xenovia or Yuuto?"
"None." Shirou countered as he lowered his phone along with Issei, who'd been trying non-stop to contact the errant Gremory Knight "While we can assume from Kokabiel's words that they managed to escape, it could be they were rendered unable to move for the time being."
Rias and Asia flinched, prompting Issei and Koneko to glare at the Faker who, realising how his words must have sounded, cursed Archer's influence before nodding his head towards the pillar of light trapped within the barrier "Still, regardless of whether they're injured or simply scattered, I highly doubt they'd have missed THAT, so it's possible they're already on the way if only to investigate."
"Then we should pray they're in a condition to help out when they do show up." Sona opined, her expression firm as she focused all her power into maintaining the barrier "In all honesty, if Kokabiel decided to fight seriously for even a moment, I doubt this barrier would do little to impede the resulting destruction for even a few seconds." Her eyes narrowed pointedly "As much as it pains me to admit it, I think it would be wise if you called in your brother, Rias."
"If it truly pains you that much Sona, then why didn't you call your Sister first?" Rias shot back, her tone teasing as she smiled at her rival, though there was a look of understanding in her eyes.
