Chapter 207 - My SI Stash #7 - Vengeance and Ignorance, Penance Staredowns: A Highschool DXD Ghost Rider Self Insert by Dingamuss (DxD) (2/2)
”Hmmmm. Looks like these are tire tracks. Not sure from what exactly, but whoever was here had a flaming vehicle I'd hazard to guess. Curious.” She closely examined the tracks. She soon put her hands near the flame and felt such vast Demonic power that radiated from them. She reeled back in surprise as the flames began to dim. ”Well, whoever or whatever was here has some sort of Demonic power, the likes of which I've never seen.” She added as the flames began to dim further, no brighter than a candle, yet still held so much power. She then faced her Peerage with a steely gaze. ”We better keep an eye out for whoever did this. They could be a big threat if left unchecked.” She said to her group as they all faced her with same gaze.
”””Yes President!””” Akeno, Kiba, and Koneko all said in unison. Sighing. Rias stood up from her position and began to walk back to the entrance, waiting for her Peerage so she can use a Teleportation Circle.
'I'd better make a report of this soon. Can't have what's out there to mess with my territory....or my precious servants.' She thought with a slight smirk, yet she was still cautious. 'I just hope my new Pawn can handle what's thrown at him.' She thought to herself once more, her smirk growing wider. Seconds later, she disappeared along with her Peerage to the Occult Research Club, her base of operations and hideout.
*With Fredrick*
Taking my car for a joyride was the best thing that ever happened to me! The feel and purr of the engine of the Firebird kept my my focused. My still skeletal hands firm on the steering wheel. However my surrounds were.....unique. To say the least. It was all Japanese lettering, Kanji I believe it was? Still driving on the dirt road, I found a small hill at which to observe the city. Feeling whatever power I had start to wain, I quickly parked at a lone hill, just outside the city limits. Soon, the flames began to burn out, causing me to feel every fiber of myself begin to stitch itself back together. Sinew and muscle regrew on my hands and face, causing me to feel immense discomfort. Gasping and coughing, I flinched at the amount of discomfort I felt. It was like having your entire face numb and having a headache at the same time. Which sure as hell wasn't a pleasant sensation!
”God f_u_c_k_i_n_g damnit! Wha-what the hell was that?! I....I....I'm not sure what I did, one moment I'm being impaled by a snake lady and the next I become all fiery and my car also goes fiery. J-just what the literal F_U_C_K is going on?!” I shouted to myself. I was confused, scared lost, and just nearly had a near-death experience. Sighing, I held my held with my hand, which now was its normal, fleshy self. Looking up at the dashboard. My eyes widened in surprise. At the sight I had just witnessed. ”Holy shit! You're...the car is not rusted anymore....it's clean, and in perfect condition....just what the hell is going on?!” I once again ask no one as I began to shakingly touch the smooth black leather of the seats and the cold metal of a small skull where the the handle for the transmission was.
'Seriously! What the hell is going on!!?' I once again asked myself internally. Yet no one answered me. Sighing, I looked over behind me to see if anyone was there. Satisfied I soon gripped my head and began to feel a small headache coming on.
”Damnit. Can't be dealing with this shit. Guess I gotta find out where the hell I'm at. It's Japanese, that much is certain. I gotta head to the city. Hope I'll find something that'll let me know where I'm at. Huh? What's this?” I said to myself, the last part caused by a package of CDs and Cassette Cases. All of which had music on them. MY MUSIC. ”Five Finger Death Punch, Avenged Sevenfold, Metallica, Pantera, Disturbed, Johnny Cash? Marty Robbins? Since when did I have those? Well atleast I got all of the albums, guess that's something? Weird how it's mostly metal. Whatever that portal did sure got a sense of humor.” I said sarcastically. Giving a small smile. I soon turned my head to the steering wheel. Checking my watch, I noticed that it was nearing morning. Raising an eyebrow at the timezone changed on my watch, I soon gripped the steering wheel and began to turn on the engine. It felt like the car was a part of me. Responding to what I wanted like a loyal dog. Shaking my head with a smile, I began to set the car in drive and made my way to whatever city I was in.
*At Kuoh Town (With the Perverted Trio)
Kuoh Town. A small town in Japan, run by two devil heiresses. Sona Sitri, heiress of the Sitri clan, and Rias Gremory, heiress of the Gremory clan. Both share power and ownership of the territory. Making sure whatever Stray Devils and activities that happen in their territory is under control to keep the humans out of harm's way. As the view of the town became much clearer, a black muscle car can be seen driving on the streets of Kuoh. A 1968 Pontiac Firebird. Well regarded as one of the best muscle cars ever built. It's black metallic paint shining in the morning sun. The rumble of it's engines turned heads of both man and woman. Soon three teenage boys began to ogle at the car, admiring its beauty.
”Do you see that car?! So badass!” One teenager said. He had black hair and wore glasses, currently he was in a uniform belonging to Kuoh Academy. A educational institution that was also a college. He began to stare at the car and its driver. A young man with brown hair and brown eyes, clearly a foreigner, an American most likely. Soon another teenage boy began to step up. He was bald and had his eyes closed. Leering at the black muscle car he made a perverted grin.
”Dude! Hell yeah it is! I bet if we had a sweet car like that we'd be swimming in girls! Sure beats the other cars around here that's for sure!” The bald teenager said out loud to his friends. Who all nodded and still looked at the beauty of a machine. ”That guy must be so lucky to have a thing like that! Grrrrr I'm so jealous!” He said in frustration as he comically clenched his fist and began to weep. Then another teenage boy stepped up. He had brown spikey hair that reached to his nape. And wore the Kuoh Academy uniform with the front of it opened. He too had his teeth grit, staring jealousy at the brown haired man in a nearby parking lot. Even some of the Academy girls couldn't help but take pictures of the car and it's owner. With blushes and a few of them giggling at the ”New Foreigner” that is in town.
”Agghhhh! He's taking all the girls from us too! At this rate I'll never be the Harem King! Ain't no way I'm playing backseat to him!” The brown haired teenager said in sheer anger. As he too clenched his fist and scowled at the car. The rumble of it's engines drowned out most of the crowd. Soon a couple seconds later, the car soon turned off it's engines. Silence followed and a young man, no older than 19 exited the car. He soon locked the doors and headed on inside of a donut shop. Leaving the car unattended. Seeing an opportunity all three boys began to grin. Taking the chance, they made their way to the unattended car. They stopped about 3 feet away from the car, it was even more beautiful close up as it was far away. Stepping forward and looking at their reflection in the perfectly clean metal, they began to snicker.
”Hey Issei! Think this'll look good on us?” The bald teenager asked the brown haired boy, who only have a grin and thumbs up. They began to pose near the car, with Issei taking pictures with his phone of the two. All of which began taking turns next to the car, making ridiculous poses.
”Aww yeah! It looks good with us! Motohama, Matsuda! Imagine if we had one of these. We'd be popular in no time!” Issei said with a perverse grin. His friends making the same facial expression. However, the owner of the car soon came out of the donut shop, only to find the three of them fooling around. And by the look of his face. He was pissed.
*5 minutes before*
After heading to the small town. Hope it was a town by the size of it. I began taking to the streets. The rumble and purr of the engines just felt right. It's like I was using the car in its prime. The old girl was still a work of beauty, no longer what it used to be in the junkyard. Smiling, I drove towards what looks like a donut shop, with the words in English as well as Japanese. Some of the locals began to ogle at the car. Even a few of the local girls in what looks to be school uniforms all began to eye the car, weirdly enough, also me. Raising an eyebrow I looked down and began to pat myself for my wallet.
”Come on, come one! Where is it?!” I ask myself as I finally found it in my rear pocket of my pants. ”Yes! There we are! Hope I've got enough for something to eat.” I say to myself once more as I began to exit the driver's seat. Taking the keys from the ignition and turning it off, I soon used one of the keys to lock the door. Satisfied, I began to make my way into the donut shop. I was soon greeted by a Japanese man. However, when he opened his eyes he immediately began to freak out. However, he soon began to speak to me in absolutely perfect English.
”Uh hello sir! What can I get you?” He asked for my order and I began to look at the menu. Glancing at the options, I noticed that it had English characters on the board. I soon turned to the young man and ask.
”Do you accept American money? I'm new in town and I uhhh...don't exactly have any Yen on me.” I ask him in a polite tone. To which he responds.
”Yes sir! We do accept dollars in this establishment. It's run by me and my dad, we're Japanese American who left America to start up this little shop. Give the locals a taste of home I suppose.” He said to me. I nodded to him, giving a faint smile. ”Well anyways, what can I get you?” He asked me.
”Three breakfast croissants, a coffee, and a side of bacon please.” I gave him my order and he nodded with a smile.
”Coming right up! Will you be eating here or on the go?” He asked me.
”On the go. I want to see what this town has for me....what's this town called again?” I asked him.
”It would be Kuoh Town sir. Now I'll be back with your order, please wait a moment.” He politely answers my question as I begin to freeze up at that name.
'Kuoh Town? No.....it....it can't be.....why here? Why here?!' I panicked internally as I began to use my right arm to support my head. 'This can't be happening. This can't be happening!' I continued to panic and soon, I was greeted by the smell of eggs, bacon, and a warm cup of coffee. Which caused me to immediately relax.
”Here we are sir! Your order is ready! That'll be 15 dollars please.” He gave me my order as I began to fish for a 20 in my wallet. I soon gave him the twenty and waved him off.
”Keep the change.” I gave a small grin and he too made a small smile and nodded. I soon began to walk out of the establishment, the bag that held my breakfast kept firm in my hands. I soon began to walk over to my car, planning to eat in it. But I what I saw messing with my car, infuriated me. Marching forward. I was soon met with three teenage boys, one bald, one with black hair and glasses, and one with brown spikey hair and very familiar. But I didn't care.
”What are you doing to my car?” I asked them. Panicked, they immediately started to stop what they were doing and began to leer at me.
”What does it look like? We're admiring it!” The baldy replied. And the other two began to firmly nod with grins on their faces.
”Oh? And what pray tell what were you admiring about it?” I asked them in a half-polite half-threatening tone at them. Soon the brown haired one speaks up.
”Hey give us a break dude! We like your car and thought it was cool! You even started attracting all the babes here because of it you know?” The brown haired boy replied to me as he soon began to lean on my car. Feeling my intent, the hood began to heat up. Causing his back to be burned. ”Ow! What the hell was that?!” He asked his friends who had all began to shrug.
”Careful it's.....HOT.” I quipped with a grin as I began to make my way to the driver's seat. Opening the door with my key and began to put my breakfast in the passenger's seat. Soon they began to crowd around me and got a glimpse of the interior. The glasses wearing teenager began to whistle.
”Splimented and I just blankly stared at him and gave him a shrug.
”She's a beaut. Saved from a junkyard. Now she's good as new. Maybe even better...” I said to him, the last part I uttered under my breath. I soon began to get in the driver's seat and closed the door. Lowering the window, I put my arm through it and gave him a straight look. ”Better clear the parking lot kiddo. I'm plannin' on goin' someplace to enjoy my breakfast in peace. You lot gotta head to your school probably. Until then.” I gave a small nod to them as I fully pulled the window up. I turned on the engine causing it to give a mighty roar. Which stunned the three teenages as I drove off into a different part of town so I could eat and panic.
