Kuoh Academy (3rd Person Pov)

Gaea's rage resonated with the earth as the entire floating rock shook violently, the ground surrounding Kuoh had it worse than any other nation as the ground was torn apart all over the place with lava pouring from said holes

Issei: R-Rias! What's going on?!

Rias looked at who she thought was Kokabiel but as she squinted her eyes she noticed that Kokabiel slowly morphed into Aether making her widen her eyes

Rias: What?!

Rias scanned the area then saw Freed holding Excalibur Transparency, putting two and two together Rias came to a conclusion on what she thought had happened

Rias: We've been tricked!

Kiba: By who?!

Rias: By the enemy

Issei: But didn't we defeat the enemy?!

Rias: No... it seems that the Kokabiel we saw was merely an illusion and who I actually attacked was Aether

Akeno: Wait that means...?

Rias: That's right

Rias looked down at the ground then clenched her fists 

Rias: The reason the ground is so violently shaking is most likely because we've caused Gaea to rage 

Issei: G-Gaea?

Rossweisse: The one who visited us last time, Issei

Issei: I know that it's just-!

Issei didn't get to finish his sentence as the ground suddenly shot up and formed a fist that punched his chin with such force that it blew away the devils and launched Issei into the sky

Rias: Issei!

Kokabiel: It seems we won't be able to have our fight just yet

Mei: Hmph, what do mere devils got to do with us? Gaea is handling them right now 

Kokabiel: *Smirks* But Gaea is also destroying this world right now, if you don't stop her then there's a very good chance this planet will blow 

Rayquaza: He's done his research...

Kokabiel: I've always heard a lot about Gaea, gathering intel on what she's capable of proved useful

Mei grit her teeth at Kokabiel then turned to Rayquaza

Mei: Well? What do we have to do?

Rayquaza: First of all we have to calm down Gaea

Mei: How though?

Rayquaza: With force of course

Rayquaza and Mei both vanished from Kokabiel's sight making the fallen angel grin as he took a look at Aether on the ground 

Kokabiel: (So that's the boy that Neriah wanted to kill... the fact that he managed to kill her means that he's got a good amount of power stored within him, I wonder if I'll be able to make that power mine?)

Kokabiel's hand glowed a bright white colour

Kokabiel: Well... there's only one way to find out!

He brought his arm down hoping to slam it into Aether's chest but a rope wrapped itself round his wrist and brought him forward over Aether

Kokabiel: What?
