"Well, Koneko has been following him for a few weeks now and hasn't found anything. " Akeno teased.
"I know, and I'm running out of time. " Rias said calmly.
There was one more card she had to use and although it was cruel, it was her only choice. During one of her last missions to kill a stray devil she sensed a group of fallen angels moving into the church.
If he did have a gear, they'd target him soon enough.

Issei found himself once again at Sona's secret house, but this time it wasn't for pleasure, it was actually for business. Since he knew Koneko was watching him, he went home the normal way and after making sure the coast was clear, teleported to the house to meet with Sona.
Right now he was sitting in the kitchen sipping some tea. "Sona, I'm pretty sure Rias isn't approaching me at all.
She's been spying on me with that rook of hers. However, she hasn't approached me herself since the school year began.
" Issei revealed.
"That's impossible. I've heard the rumors and I'm certain her family will make a power play soon.
" Sona said in shock.
"I hate to interrupt, but I believe we have another problem that's just as dangerous. " Ddraig revealed much to the shock of both people.
After all, Ddraig rarely spoke to the two of them together.
"What's wrong, Ddraig?" Sona asked in concern. Sona had spoken with Ddraig on a few occasions but he rarely volunteered information on his own.
"I believe a group of fallen angels and exorcists are gathering at the old abandoned church. I don't know what they're doing here, but it can't be good.
" Ddraig revealed to the shock of Sona Sitri.
"How long do you think they've been here?" Sona asked nervously. If fallen angels were in the territory it couldn't be good.
"Well it's been a week or so since I first sensed them. " Ddraig revealed.
"WHAT!" Sona said in shock. This was a big problem and she knew it.
"Why did you wait so long to tell us, Ddraig?" Issei wondered himself.
"None of them are powerful enough to cause you two any problems. Plus since the nekomata was following us, I couldn't be careless.
"
"You have a point. " Sona groaned.
Koneko would've been able to sense Ddraig and with Rias's rash personality that would've led to problems.
"For right now I say we relax. The fallen angels aren't stupid enough to attack you, and whatever plan they may have in mind, we can stop it rather easily.
Just be careful the next few days. "
"Sounds good and if anything changes make sure to let me know. " Sona said smiling.
"Well, I'm gonna head home. Talk to you soon, Sona.
" Issei said before kissing Sona on the cheek and leaving.
"Issei you may be in more danger then you realize. " Sona said nervously to herself.
Sona was a very intelligent person and once she learned that fallen angels had gathered in the church it meant that one of three things was about to happen. First is that they were going to attack her and Rias and were gathering a force to do it.
After all, they would've no doubt known that Sona and Rias already lived in Kuoh and attacking recklessly wouldn't work. The other two scenarios involved Issei himself.
The fallen angels were either going to seduce him and get him to join them or they were going to kill him and take the boosted gear. Unfortunately for Sona, she suspected it was the latter.
Hopefully Issei could warn her before something dangerous really happened.
(Scene Skip)
A week had passed since his latest meeting with Sona and Ddraig was certainly right to be nervous. For the last week, Issei noticed that not only was Koneko still following him, but he had gained a new observer in one of the fallen angels that moved into the church.
The person stayed outside of what most would consider a normal range, but Issei was still able to sense her. What he found strange was that he was also pretty certain Koneko could sense the fallen angel but didn't do anything about it.
This was definitely making things interesting for him. Of course even he couldn't have imagined that his second observer would do what she did next.
"Umm…. excuse me? Are you Issei Hyoudou?" A young girl asked as she appeared in front of him.
She had long black hair and violet eyes. She was wearing a uniform that Issei had never seen before with a red vest and a green pleated skirt.
If not for the fact that he knew she wasn't human, Issei would certainly have called her attractive.
"Partner, she's a fallen angel. I'm pretty sure she's the one who's been watching you the last few days.
" Ddraig warned.
'I figured as much. I guess it's time to see what she wants.
' Issei thought internally trying to make sure she didn't notice him. "Yeah, I am, so what do you want?"
"My name is Yuuma Amano and I was wondering… could you be my boyfriend?" Yuuma said blushing heavily.
"What!" Issei said in disbelief.
"WHAT!" Ddraig screamed internally. Neither of them would've guessed this would happen
"You see, I've been watching you from afar because I'm a bit shy. You seem like a nice guy, and well, I figured I'd go for it.
" Yuuma said with a smile.
'So let me get this straight, you've been watching me from afar and decided to randomly ask me out. Who falls for this crap?' Issei thought to himself.
The last week he had mostly walked home and that was usually with his two buddies. This girl stunk at lying.
However since he knew the truth, he figured that he should play along. "Sure, I'll be your boyfriend.
" Issei said smiling.
"Awesome! I'll see you soon, boyfriend!" Yuuma said smiling before leaving. Interestingly enough Issei noticed that Koneko left as well.
"Partner, are you sure this is wise? The fallen angel is trying to trap you somehow. "
