·Neither said a word to the other, neither needed to, the two's eager smiles on their faces speaking volumes. The blue clad man moved first as he rushed towards her at a ridiculous speed and the woman did the same. The two met with a clash of spears but it was clear that the woman was winning as she started pushing her opponent back until their faces were inches apart. In desperation the man head-butted the girl as their weapons locked themselves together before he was kicked in the gut and sent flying away.

"You've still got a lot to learn if you want to beat me Sétanta," laughed the woman with a fond smile.

"Oh really?" coughed Sétanta with a smirk as he pointed to his forehead.

Frowning the woman placed a hand over her face and her eyes widened as she felt the blood running down her skin, "well I'll be…you finally landed a hit on me."

The young Cu Chulainn just smiled as he struggled to his feet.

The images faded away from his mind and snapped Issei back into the present as their spears were still locked together, the girl showing no strain from holding back Issei's doubled strength. 'What was that?' he thought in confusion.

"So that's the legendary Longinus, Boosted Gear?" scoffed the girl, breaking the teen out of his thoughts. "And they think that can kill a God? That's ridiculous, I should know I've killed a few myself."

[BOOST!]

Issei just glared at her for insulting his partner and again went on the offensive, only for the girl to sigh in disappointment as she blocked the strike. As the two spears collided Issei tried to use his newly doubled strength to overpower her, only to see the girl not only hold her own but start to push him back.

"Cute, but it'll take more than that to overpower me," she grinned before as she used her strength to press her face inches from Issei's.

[BOOST!]

Issei tried to push her back but she was just too strong and in a move of desperation he head-butted her as the girl pressed her face in to him again. Eyes widening the girl staggered slightly while Issei just fell to the floor in pain, his head feeling like it had just hit a brick wall.

"That move…" muttered the girl as her crimson eyes bore into his "Looks like Morrigan and Lugh were telling the truth after all, you are connected to him."

"Your lack of faith in us is insulting," remarked the black haired girl watching from the sides with a frown.

"Morrigan? Lugh? What are you talking about?" questioned Issei, frowning at the mention of the Celtic Gods.

"It doesn't matter," replied the purple girl as she eyed him with an appraising look. "Oi use your card already, I'm getting bored her."

Issei just froze as a cold feeling spread across his body, "card? What are you talking about?"

The girl glared at him before she instantly appeared inches from Issei's face, "I mean the Lancer card that somehow connects you to Cu Chulainn."

[Well looks like the cats out of the bag, partner.]

'Ddraig what do I do?' panicked the teen as he sent his spear at the girl, only for her to catch it in one hand as she ripped it from his grip and snapped it in two.

[They already knew about it somehow, so there's no need to keep it a secret.]

Nodding Issei backed up from the girl, whom just watched with a calculating expression as he grabbed the glowing cardholder and brought the Lancer card. "Include Lancer!" he shouted and both the girl's eyes narrowed as they saw the spear in his hands.

"What do you think? You spent more time with that spear then even your student did," asked the black one curiously.

The purple girl nodded with a frown, "you were right Morrigan. That spear definitely has the same aura as Gae Bolg."

'Student?' thought Issei before his eyes widened as a look of fear and realization crossed his face, Cu Chulainn didn't have any pupils and only one person could ever call Cu Chulainn their student. To make matters worse she called her companion Morrigan, as much as he wanted to believe it was a coincidence, even Issei knew he was deluding himself.

[BOOST!]

"You're Scáthach, Cu Chulainn's teacher. What could you and the Goddess, Morrigan herself, want with a human like me," stated Issei as he gripped Gae Bolg tighter.

Scáthach just smiled, "we'll tell you but first I have a little test for you."

"Test?" repeated Issei.

The immortal witch held out a hand as if to grasp something and Issei saw a red light form in her hand before it extended to nearly her height in length. As the red light died down Issei gasped as he saw a familiar blood red spear in her hand, giving off an incredible amount of bloodlust.

Scáthach got into her stance, "let's see which is stronger, my Gae Bolg or yours."

The cursed spear of the Celts, descended from the Norse spear Gungnir, and Brionac, the spear of the Celtic God of the Sun, father of its most well-known wielder Cu Chulainn. The tragedy of Gae Bolg is one of the most infamous of all the Demonic weapons in the world, yet despite its infamy very few have ever seen the weapon as it is jealously guarded by the Celtic Sun God, Lugh. Those few who have seen it all report the same thing however, a blood red spear with an overwhelming amount of bloodlust emanating from the weapon.

Originally obtained by the immortal witch Scáthach through means that have been lost to time, she eventually gave the weapon to one of her most successful students, Cu Chulainn. The witch then asked her student to kill her but sadly; she had grown so powerful that she had been cursed to 'not be considered human.' Not even the cursed spear could end her existence and so Gae Bolg failed to kill the one person it was intended to.

Eventually Cu Chulainn left, taking Gae Bolg with him and forged his own legend as the 'Shield of Ulster' but in the process ending the lives of his close friend and son with the cursed spear. It is known for its ability to 'reverse the nature of causality' ensuring the opponent's heart is pierced, however what is not as well-known is its second ability, that was developed and mastered by Cu Chulainn. When thrown Gae Bolg supposedly…

"Kiba what are you doing?" questioned Rias, as she walked into clubroom.

Kiba immediately snapped out of his book and stood up to greet his King, "Buchou, I was just doing some more research on Demonic weapons. I thought there might be something to help us identify Issei's spear Akashi."
