chapter 21

Chapter XXI – Past And Present Issues

Raynare breathed out a sigh after she reappeared in a swirl of feathers in her safe house in Tokyo with her team. They were ordered by the leaders of their organization to keep careful surveillance on Kyuren Kaizer Avynzen.

A human so powerful that he almost killed one of the Devil Kings with one strike if the reports were reliable. But Raynare knew they were because she fell victim to his might once before.

When she told Dohnaseek, Kalawarner and Mittelt that they were going back in the field, they were ecstatic and eager to get back into the swing of things and the same could be said for Raynare.

Like her, her team had gone through rigorous training after their punishment for disobeying the direct orders of the Governor General. They were sentenced to severe disciplinary actions and were restricted from going on further missions until such a time the higher ups have deemed them ready to return to active duty.

But they used that time to better themselves and grew stronger than their first encounter in Kuoh. And they would prove their worth and strength in due time.

"Raynare, glad you made it back." Dohnaseek said with a nod. "We were beginning to worry that something had happened."

"No need to worry about me." She plopped down on the sofa with Mittelt who was munching on a chocolate bar. "The deal is done and the rest is up to him now."

Mittlet swallowed her mouthful. "So...what now? Wait for shit to go down."

Raynare shrugged. "Pretty much, yeah. We really can't set foot back in Kuoh with this going on...at least not being seen." She could hear the murmurs of agreement from her team. Between the stunt they pulled and the shit stain known as Kokabiel stirring up trouble, Fallen Angels were not welcome in Devil Territory.

"Then I guess we should make ourselves comfortable." Kalawarner piped up. "We're gonna be here for a while until the higher ups says so otherwise."

"Right. You guys make sure this place is up and running." Raynare stood up from the sofa. "I'm going to give Azazel the good news."

"You got it." With that, the three went to work while Raynare went to her room to contact and inform their heads of the new development.

Closing the door behind her, the young Fallen Angel sighed and stripped down to her underwear and put on some fresh clothes. Once covered up, Raynare grabbed her laptop and began to establish a link back to headquarters.

This may just be a simple laptop but it was special equipment given to their spies deep within enemy territory linked back to one of the many information centers of Grigori.

But Raynare's was specifically linked to the Governor General's own because him, Shemhazai and...Barquiel wanted to keep this under wraps for now.

"Raynare, am I correct to assume that things went according to plan?" Azazel asked, his face showing on the screen.

"Yes." She nodded. "I delivered the intel to him and he had grudgingly agreed to take action against Kokabiel. I think it's possible that he went to the devils with it."

The Governor General nodded. "I see, that should give them a little heads-up for Kokabiel's little plans...that is, considering they believe it."

"They'd have to be damn idiots not to." She said that made Azazel chuckle at her comment. "Any word from the church, sir?"

"So far, nothing yet, but I can bet my secret stash of sake that they already found out that their precious swords are missing and I wouldn't put it past Kokabiel to leave a trail leading back to Kuoh."

Raynare nodded. Kokabiel himself wouldn't be able to set foot in the Vatican without thousands of heavily armed and trained priests and steal the swords. If he did, then he'll have a hell of a fight out of there. Not to mention that the Archangels kept careful watch on the place.

"Do you think it was an inside job?" She asked and Azazel hummed in thought.

"It is a possibility, but we don't know for sure. Just remember to be there when the action starts. I want you to collect as much data as you can so we can find out how big of a player he really is."

Raynare hesitated for a moment before nodding. "You can count on me."

Azazel smiled. "Good luck, Raynare. And be careful." With that, the link was severed and she shut down her laptop before plopping down on her bed with a sigh.

She had no doubt in her mind that Kyuren would win this. Anyone who can plant the devil king to the ground like it was Sunday morning had balls of steel. She almost felt sorry for Kokabiel...almost.

But deep down...Raynare couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Technically speaking, she lied to him about certain things. Yes, she was there to watch him but that part about this not being a lab project was a lie on her part.

Azazel wanted to gauge his strength to see where Kyuren stood and this little fiasco that Kokabiel was just what he needed to do just that. That was the real reason why she and her team were here.

Letting out a groan, Raynare felt that it was time to change the subject. Guilt tripping wasn't exactly her thing. Instead...she thought about that kiss on the cheek she gave him.

A slight shade of pink colored her cheeks as Raynare smirked at the memory. It was especially funny since Kyuren froze on the spot. Man, you would think a guy that hot must've burned through dozens of girlfriends right about now.

'Okay, maybe that was a little exaggerated.' She giggled to herself. How can a guy be so seductively hot and not be in a relationship for so long?

But in all truthfulness, Raynare was glad to see him again. If there was any saving grace that made her go back to this shit hole they call Kuoh...it was Kyuren.

She owed him for giving her a chance and believing in her just as Azazel did when he scrapped her up from her...previous life.

"Maybe I could meet up with him again." She said to herself while looking on her phone on the stand before smiling. "Maybe I should."

Raynare didn't know where this would lead her...but she stands by her word, she wouldn't mind getting together with Kyuren.

*Grigori Headquarters*

After the connection to his subordinate was severed, the leader of the Fallen Angels leaned back on his chair with a small grin.

Looks like he made the right call in giving Raynare this assignment due to her...previous performance in Kuoh.

"What do you think, Tobio, is she ready?" He turned to Tobio who was leaning on the wall with an almost lazy expression.

"I wouldn't know until I see it." Came his rebuttal with a shrug.

This was Tobio Ikuse, a human though he was a member of the Grigori Organization. He may be a human, but he was one of the top combatants the Fallen Angels and he had the skills, power and strength to prove it.

Not many know this but he was actually a descendant of the Himejima Clan and was born with the Sacred Gear, Canis Lykoan, and one of the rare instances that it has already achieved Balance Breaker.

Azazel chuckled. "You really need to have more faith in her. After all, you trained her."

"Only to stop her damn begging." Tobio said with an annoyed huff. The only reason he agreed to train her was so she could stop being so damn clingy. It reminded him too much of Vali.

"Yeah, but you can't argue with the results. Remember how she beat Vali in a spar? Granted all she got was a ring out, but it's still a win."

At that, Tobio just grunted but deep down, he was really amused about it. When he heard about that little bit of good news, he almost laughed his ass off. Vali was always an overconfident bastard and would sometimes underestimate his opponents.

And it was that bull headedness that cost him the win against Raynare. He underestimated her and didn't think that he would need to use his Sacred Gear, figuring that little Ray was still the weakling that she was.

Too bad Vali didn't know that she received training from him and other instructors to better herself.

Now, don't get him wrong, he cares for that White Dragon Emperor...but it was just so damn funny.

Tobio let out an amused chuckle. "How's he taking that loss?"

"Oh, you know." Azazel smirked in mischievous joy. "Training all day and all night, demanding a rematch between him and her again, whining like a bitch about it, not to mention the brooding. I kind of understand why you don't want to show your face to him."

He let out an amused snort. Yeah, kid's a certified emo if he ever saw one. "You know he's going to stab you in the back right." It wasn't a question.

The Governor General just waved it off. "I know; I have my suspicions that he's working for someone very familiar but I can't know for sure. On another note..." He conjured up visuals of their most interesting subject yet. "What do you think of him?"

'Ah, yes. The reason why Azazel sent Raynare back there.' Tobio said to himself as he peered at the image of Kyuren. At first, he merely scoffed at the claim, believing that Azazel was pulling a fast one on him again and was finally losing it.

And then, he was shown that infamous footage and his amusement turned to interest and stunned amazement. Was Tobio the one finally losing it, he asked himself. Someone actually just...punched the Devil King into next week?

After taking a few seconds to recollect himself, he asked the Governor General if this was real and who was the one who had the balls to do that.

Naturally, Azazel answered that this was authenticated and verified by himself. But the real kicker was when he told Tobio that the subject was human. He chuckled at the look of shock on his face.

He couldn't believe it; a human did that? There was no way. He knew who Sirzechs was and respected his strength. If they met on the battlefield, Tobio doubted that he could defeat him in a fight, even with the necessary preparations.

But this human just did that...in his own turf. Questions began forming in his mind, but one was prevalent. Did this human possess a Sacred Gear? Maybe one of the Longinus Class Gears like his or something new like an evolution or something? He asked Azazel this.

Unfortunately, the Governor General didn't know if Kyuren - the name of the subject - had one or not. And that's why he needed to find out and had sent Raynare to keep tabs on him but informed her to keep her distance.

"Why'd you pick her of all people?" Tobio asked. "There's gotta be someone more qualified than her and her people."

Azazel chuckled. "Like you and Vali?" Tobio frowned. "See, there's your answer. And besides, she's probably the only one who could get close to him and not get turned into mincemeat."

"What makes you say that?"

"Call it a hunch."

Tobio frowned but didn't say anything more. Raynare can take care of herself, he made sure of that. But still, he would keep his eyes and ears open in Kuoh.

After all, he takes care of his own.

After Kyuren left Sona couldn't help but frown...not at her partner though. She was actually very grateful to him that he gave this information to her. With this, he gave them a chance to possibly avert war...and saved her and Rias' lives as well as their respective peerages.

If the raven haired teen didn't come forward with this...Sona didn't want to think about what the future holds for this world and its inhabitants. The Earth can ill afford another devastating war.

But with this, they had a fighting chance to keep the peace...a relatively fragile peace. And as an added bonus, Kyuren had agreed to lend a hand. Like her pawn said, 'Oh shit' was right. Even the Sitri heiress could get behind that.

Though his reason to take action maybe a little bit selfish, Kyuren's assistance would be an invaluable asset.

Regardless, that still raises the question. Why did the Fallen Angels give him this information? Immediately after, her eyes widened in surprise. Sona should've noticed it sooner, the Fallen Angels knew about Kyuren!

'B-But how?!' A new problem had reared its ugly head. Now the Devils weren't the only ones gunning for Kyuren, but the Fallen Angels as well. She ran through every possibility until she recalled the incident a few months ago. 'That Fallen Angels that escaped Rias...they must've told Azazel about him.'

Sona mentally kicked herself for failing to see that. The news has already begun spreading and it was only a matter of time before the Angels and church got wind of this and send their own watchers. Hell, if this got out to every mythology, they would flock to either test or try to kill him!

Who knows what would happen then!

'Dammit, I thought it would take longer for this to get out.' So lost in her train of thoughts that Sona didn't even notice that she passed by her older sister who was staring at her weirdly.

Serafall was confused now. One minute, her baby sister was all friendly with Kyuren, the next, she was frowning. She wondered what was bugging her sister. "Hey, Sona. What got you so...thinkery?"

Normally, Sona would chastise her sister, but she was worried about something much bigger than petty sibling squabbles. "An even bigger problem."

"What do you mean, sis?" What was bigger than the problem they had right now?

"I'll tell you with the rest."

Serafall nodded and the two met up with their parents and Sona's peerage.

Claudius had reviewed everything that Kyuren gave them, even the copy of the recording that Sona requested of him. It all adds up because he knew who Kokabiel was.

In the war, he had faced the deranged Cadre in battle and he was almost killed. Lord Sitri knows just how bloodthirsty and how much Kokabiel loved war...and he was targeting his youngest daughter.

'Not on my watch. I will make sure of that.' He had already lost family and friends in the last Great War. Claudius will NOT lose his wife and two daughters.

Lady Sitri was also in the same sense of thought. Before taking on the Sitri name, she was of the Valefor Clan. Now, the clan of her birth was gone, erased from existence. Her entire family was gone and she was the only one left.

Inza squeezed her husband's hand. She lost one family, she will NOT lose another because of some lunatic who can't stand peacetime.

"What do you think we should do, Lord and Lady Sitri?" Tsubaki asked as they had all reviewed what Kyuren had given them and were ready and willing to take action.

Saji nodded resolutely. "Yeah, over my dead body will some asshole get to Sona."

Despite the course language, Claudius and Inza smiled at their daughter's peerage. They were loyal and ready to defend their king even if the odds are against them.

One could not ask for a better peerage.

Just then, Sona and Serafall came back into the room. "All right, now that we're all here, let's figure out how we're going to do this." Inza stated.

Like her husband, she didn't exactly trust Kyuren with her youngest but...she had to give him her thanks. Without this, there was a good chance that Kokabiel would just waltz into their territory, kill Sona and Rias, and ignite another war.

But with this, they had a golden opportunity to stop this threat before it even becomes one. For that...Inza would at least give him the benefit of the doubt.

"Before we continue, have you all noticed something?" Sona asked.

They all looked at her in curiosity. "What do you mean?" Reya asked.

"Haven't you wondered just how Kyuren got this information? Who gave it to him?"

Claudius thought about it for a second before his face hardened in realization. "The Fallen Angels...it had to be them." Soon, everyone realized that as well. "But this can't be a set up because Azazel doesn't want a war."

Inza nodded. "Yes, that's true. Azazel was the first to withdraw his faction from the war and had done everything in his power for Grigori to not be pulled back into another war. It's not hard to guess that he would want to stop Kokabiel's plot."

"Okay, so you're basically saying that the head honcho of the Fallen Angles wants this guy gone as much as we do?" Saji asked and Sona nodded. "That's great and all, but I don't see what the problem is."

"The problem, Saji, is that they specifically gave the information to Kyuren." She stressed her partner's name. "Meaning they somehow know of his...special abilities otherwise they wouldn't go through the trouble of giving us this information themselves."

That made them realize what Sona was implying. So focused were they on the looming threat of war, they overlooked just how Kyuren got this information.

"It would seem that we aren't the only ones to know of him." Tsubaki noted seriously. "But how could they have known-" Just then, her eyes widened in realization as did the rest of the peerage. "Do you think it could be them?"

"It must be. Unless they have eyes and ears within our ranks, it has to be them." The Sitri heiress agreed.

Claudius, Inza, and Serafall's interests were piqued, wanting to know just what they were talking about. "What are you talking about?" Inza asked.

Sona sighed, she just knew her parents - especially her sister - would definitely fuss about this. "A few months ago, three Fallen Angels had infiltrated Kuoh." Her assumptions were proven correct...as always.

"WHAT?!" Serafall shouted in outrage. "And you're telling us this now?! Why didn't you say something to us, you could've been killed!" She ranted at her sister who simply sat there with a neutral expression.

"Your sister is right, how could you not tell us this?" Claudius glared disapprovingly at Sona. He had no idea what she was thinking of not reporting this to them. "Did you even think of the dangers?"

Sona let them continue their tirade before they finally stopped, their eyes demanding that she explain. "Moving on, as I said before, a few months ago three Fallen Angels infiltrated Kuoh, but one of their target was Rias' pawn but their true goal was to get Twilight Healing from a nun. Rias requested me to back off as she would handle this herself."

"And this is reason enough for you not to report this to us? To your sister who is one of the Devil Kings?" Inza hissed, pointing at Serafall who nodded. "We gave you permission to study in the human world on the condition that you be safe. This is not a game; this is tantamount to an act of war."

As this was going on, Sona's peerage kept their mouths shut and resigned themselves just to watch. They didn't want to draw the ire of their king's family.

"And that is exactly why I and Rias didn't report this." The Sitri heiress retorted. "Serafall and Sirzechs would no doubt see this as a threat to our safety and would no doubt retaliate."

"Damn right I would! No one hurts my little sister and gets away with!" Serafall snarled but a quick glare from her father made her calm down. She may be the Devil King Leviathan, but these were her parents for crying out loud!

"Whatever reason you may have, this doesn't excuse it, young lady. Even if you weren't targeted, you should have informed us."

Hearing this, Sona bowed her head in slight shame. "...Yes, I admit. I should've told you, but I had confidence in Rias to resolve the issue quickly."

"So you just did nothing and relied on Rias to resolve this on her own?" Claudius knew his daughter would've acted accordingly, not bend to the wishes of her friend and not reporting the incident at her behest!

"Father, I know-"

"Don't. We shall discuss this later." Inza said as she stood up, followed by her husband and Serafall. "For now, we have to get this to the other Devil Kings and you will be coming with us back home." She gave her daughter a stern glare. "As Lady of the House of Sitri and as your mother, this is not a request."

Knowing that she had to obey, Sona gave a weak nod. "...Yes, mother."

*Underworld - Sitri Household*

Sona knew she was in trouble. Big trouble. Normally, she maintained this stoic exterior befitting her position and authority as both the Student Council President and the Heiress of the House of Sitri.

But now...that title means nothing as her mother and father glared disapprovingly at her.

Serafall had left to bring the information to the other Devil Kings to get them up to speed, leaving her here to deal with their parents.

Sona slightly fidgeted in her seat, unable to meet her parents' gaze. How could she? She had broken the rules set by her parents and mandatory laws in not reporting the incident a few months ago.

She knew she should have informed someone, at the very least her parents. But Sona didn't because she thought that Rias could handle the situation and involving the Four Great Satans was unnecessary and there was no telling how Serafall would react if she heard that Fallen Angels were near Sona's vicinity.

But that did not matter right now.

"Sona, I'm very disappointed in you." Claudius said sharply that made her flinch. "Did you even consider the danger you and Rias put yourselves in? Did you forget that we Devils are vulnerable to light based attacks?"

"...No...I did not..."

"Then why didn't you tell us that Fallen Angels had infiltrated Kuoh?!" The Sitri Lord roared.

Sona gulped down a nervous lump before mustering up the courage to look at her father. "Because I know the incident could spark increased tensions between the factions. Rias and I figured that we could resolve the situation ourselves."

"And did she? Had it not crossed your mind that we could've sent our servants to assist you?" Inza asked. Sona opened her mouth to say something but found she had no answer to give and just looked away in shame.

Inza and Claudius couldn't believe it. Their daughter had not thought of informing them of this?!

"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?! YOU COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED!" Inza stood up and shouted in a rage with tears threatening to spill from her eyes. "This is not a matter of pride or you proving something, this is about your safety as OUR daughter!" Inza was breathing heavily before she sat back down.

Claudius placed a calming hand on his wife's shoulder before turning back to Sona. "You will tell us everything that happened. And you can expect an appropriate punishment for this."

All Sona could do was nod. She brought this upon herself and it was a long time coming.

Seeing that his daughter was clearly upset because of this, Claudius couldn't help but release a sigh. "Please understand, daughter. What you did was irresponsible and you could've gotten yourselves killed. Do you have any idea what would happen to us if you were killed?"

The Sitri Lord didn't like to entertain that thought. He had lost enough family; he couldn't bear losing any more.

"Your father is right." Inza said, her voice softening as she wiped the tears from her eyes. "You mean the world to us…if we lost you…"

Sona sniffled a little. "I understand…and I'm sorry. I'm sorry and…I'll accept any punishment you deem fit of me." She deserved this and mentally cursed herself for this. The Sitri heiress should have known better and now, she was going to pay for it…she just hoped it wasn't too severe.

"Now…explain to us why did you do that." Inza commanded softly. She and her husband needed to know just why their daughter deemed it unnecessary to report that. Only then would they decide on the proper punishment for their daughter.

The Sitri heiress took a calming breath, preparing herself. "I first heard about those Fallen Angels from Rias. She had been tracking the current host of the Red Dragon Emperor, planning to make him one of her servants."

Claudius and Inza nodded, knowing just who exactly their daughter was talking about. Claudius had been there when the Red Dragon Emperor suddenly crashed into the chambers and proclaimed that Rias' virginity was him.

Quite frankly, it was disgusting to do such a thing. Especially in a room filled with pureblood Devils; he could only imagine the shame the Gremory family felt after that.

Inza was told by her husband about the current host of the Red Dragon Emperor and she was not impressed nor amused. She felt pity towards the young Gremory for having such a servant in her peerage and wondered what she was thinking in the first place.

But both could agree…they were very relieved that Sona didn't take him as her servant. He may have the Welsh Dragon, but there was no way in the seven levels of hell they would allow their daughter to have him as her servant.

They'd tear their wings off first.

"Rias informed me that a Fallen Angel had mortally wounded Issei and she made him her servant after he summoned her." Sona continued. "Initially, Rias and I kept our ears open for any more signs of the Fallen Angel, but there were no signs of them after a few days. Not until Hyoudou was attacked again."

"Hm, what would they get out of trying to kill the boy?" Claudius inquired with a hum.

"I honestly don't know." The Sitri heiress shook her head. "But after after another attack by the first Fallen Angel, Rias and I both thought that it would be necessary to call it in."

Inza frowned. "But you didn't. Why?"

"Because of Kyuren."

That made Claudius narrow his eyes. "What do you mean?" His voice carrying subtle hints of suspicion.

"I do not know the exact details, but Kyuren had stumbled upon Issei being attacked by a Fallen Angel and decided to intervene. After defeating his foe, Rias had them brought to the ORC. This is where Kyuren found out about the supernatural." And how they found out his amazing powers, but Sona left that one unsaid.

Lord and Lady Sitri slowly nodded their heads. "But that still doesn't explain why you didn't report this up the chain." Inza stated. She and her husband were also wondering what Kyuren had to do with this.

They could not doubt his strength because they had the proof to back it up, but what role did he play here?

"The same Fallen Angel he faced, Raynare, had tracked him down to his abode." Sona gave a shrug. "I don't know the details, but he managed to find out that only four Fallen Angels were operating in Kuoh and they had gone rogue. He also found out that Hyoudou was but a secondary target, their primary was another Sacred Gear, Twilight Healing in the possession of a nun."

At that critical piece of information, Claudius and Inza's eyes widened in shock. The church?! But before they could open their mouths, Sona held her hands up to stop them.

"Mother, father, please. Let me give you the full details." Though they wanted to rant about this, they held their tongues for now. Seeing that her parents were placated enough, the Sitri heiress continued her explanation.

"Some time earlier, Hyoudou had met up with the nun in question and the two struck up an unusual friendship. He had also reported that the nun, Asia, had been cast out of the church because she healed a devil."

That put Lord and Lady Sitri at ease - if only a little bit. The church was always harsh to those that strayedaway from the teachings of the Biblical God and branded those individuals as heretics.

Also, this meant that the church had no legitimate reasons here as they had practically disowned the nun.

"While I am relieved that you made that clear, everything that Kyuren told you...they could've been misinformation to mislead you." Claudius suggested, seeing it as a possibility.

He knew how Fallen Angels were; they were cunning and manipulative.

"Yes, I had my doubts about that one as well." The Sitri heiress nodded, she would admit that she doubted his words then. "But it was the only piece of information that we got...and it proved reliable in the end."

"And what happened next?" Inza urged on.

"I was prepared to offer support, but Rias told me that she was handling this on her own. I agreed, but my peerage and I would be on standby if things go awry." Sona gave out a sigh. "Unfortunately, Rias failed to contain it and the Fallen Angels escaped with their prize."

The Sitri Lord frowned deeper but before he could say something, a servant came in. "My lord and ladies, pardon me for the intrusion but your presence is requested by Lord Ajuka Beelzebub as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Claudius gave a single nod and the servant bowed before moving away. He turned towards his daughter with a stern stare. "I have no doubt that your sister told the others about this so be prepared."

Sona hesitated for a moment before nodding. "Yes, father." She would face this head-on; she wasn't a coward.

"Go, get yourself cleaned up." Claudius dismissed his daughter and she went upstairs to get herself cleaned up for the inevitable.

As soon as she was out of sight, Claudius released a heavy breath and collapsed into his chair, his hand massaging his temples. "This is such a mess."

Inza gave her husband a sympathetic smile and gave his other hand a gentle squeeze. "I know, my love…we will deal with Sona, but we must focus on the current problem."

He just shook his head. "Do you really think we can trust this…human…Kyuren?"

"I don't know…but Sona seems to trust him." Lady Sitri supplied. "He could've left it as it is, but Kyuren went out of his way to give Sona this. He even said that he was willing to help her if needed. Don't you think he deserves the benefit of the doubt?"

Though he still didn't like the idea, Claudius couldn't deny that Kyuren's help was very much noteworthy. He not only gave them a chance to protect the fragile peace, but also a chance to protect their daughter.

Claudius was still worried about his daughter associating herself with such a powerful and dangerous being, but he was starting to see that Kyuren means little to no harm to her.

"It would seem that we have to trust the human for her safety." Lord Sitri mused and Inza silently nodded.

He couldn't believe that he was trusting a human for his daughter's safety, but if this Kyuren keep his word and ensured his daughter's safety…he would earn his respect and gratitude.

AN:

Hope you enjoyed the latest chapter of High School DxD: The Transfer Student.

This is primarily the past coming back to bite Sona and Rias in the ass. Let's face it, sooner or later, the other Devils would've found out about that incident and in canon, it annoyed me that Sona and Rias didn't even get reprimanded because of it.

I wanted to show that at least some devils are indeed competent. The anime and manga doesn't really show it much.

I mean, take Serafall for example. She's supposed to be so protective of Sona that she was willing to wage war, but when Loki came in, she doesn't even protest against it. Hell, she actually smiles at it.

So are their parents. What parent would just let this one go? An enemy running around near your child and said child didn't tell you anything intentionally, you can be damn sure there's going to be consequences.
