Chapter 24 - Koneko's Past

Eight o'clock in the evening. The three finished eating dinner and are lazing on the couch in the living room. Koneko, seemingly had not enough, kept eating sweets.

Kisuke and Yoruichi are reminded by a certain orange head girl from their old world. But it still makes sense as all the food that the girl eats becomes nutrients for her bosom, while Koneko doesn't seem to use any nutrients she gets.

"Koneko-chan, this may seem a bit sudden, but can you tell me your story?" Kisuke spoke getting the attention of both Koneko and Yoruichi.

"Story? What story?" Koneko is puzzled.

"Life story. Who you are before you became a devil and how you lived your life. You can also refuse if you don't want to. It's just my curiosity got the best of me." Kisuke looked at Koneko with a serious expression.

Koneko's body shook and started shaking.

"Does it have something to do with what you discovered in my hairclip that you mentioned earlier?" Obvious sadness fills Koneko's eyes while she looked back at Kisuke.

"I don't know, but the chances are yes." Kisuke gave Koneko his guess.

"Then can you show it to me first?" Koneko wanted to confirm it before talking.

"No. What I discovered is pretty serious, I want to know the connection of it to you before I pass it to you." He refused her suggestion as she might change her story if she saw the log. Kisuke wants the story from how she perceives it.

"Will you give it to me regardless of how my story goes?" She didn't want to give up.

"I'll have to think about that." Kisuke hesitated and didn't want to give any definite answer as he doesn't know if it'll be advantageous or disadvantageous for her to know the content.

"This hairclip is the last memento of my family, it is probably related to me. Senpai, please promise me that you will give it to me regardless." Koneko can't give up because she can remember some discrepancies in her past and wants to confirm something.

Kisuke closed his eyes for a minute and looked at Koneko again. He can see a longing inside those eyes.

"Fine, I promised. But before that..." Kisuke snapped his fingers and a preset barrier activated around the house, "I activated a barrier against contingencies and eavesdropping."

Koneko didn't notice how out of place Kisuke's magic is as she still preparing to go through her life again.

"Well then,..." Koneko started narrating.

Born as Shirone, Koneko is a young Nekomata who is part of a rare species among her kind, called the Nekoshou. The Nekoshou are a special variant of Nekomata and are the strongest among their types. Nekoshou are high-level Youkai species that are capable of mastering both Youjutsu and Senjutsu. She was born between a human father and a Nekoshou mother, Fujimai. Her parents eventually died in an experiment accident.

After losing her parents, she and her sister named Kuroka were later taken in by an unnamed Devil from the branch family of the House of Naberius, who reincarnated her sister as one of the members of his peerage. Kuroka was reincarnated as the Devil's Bishop using up two Evil Pieces. While serving her master, she became extremely talented in Senjutsu and Youjutsu, and her magical power as a Bishop became so great that she surpassed her own master in terms of magical power alone. However, Kuroka's power as a Nekomata supposedly soon grew out of control, eventually causing her to kill her master and become a Stray Devil on the run from her pursuers.

Following the incident and the failed manhunt that came after, Koneko was sentenced to death by the Devils in hopes of preventing another incident like Kuroka's from happening. However, Sirzechs Lucifer, one of the Four Great Satans, protected her and left her under his sister Rias' care. Due to the trauma, she experienced with her sister's betrayal and murder of her master, she fell into a deep depression, eventually robbing her of nearly all of her emotions until Rias helped her out of it. It was around that time Rias gave Koneko her name and made Koneko her servant.

Tears are already flowing on Koneko's face when she finished narrating her story. It is still a big trauma for her to this day. And the reason why she didn't want to use her innate power, which is Senjutsu and Youjutsu, is because she is afraid that she might lose control of her power and hurt her master and those around her. She didn't want to be alone anymore.

Yoruichi suddenly approached Koneko and begun giving off white light. This light covered her whole cat's body. Koneko was taken aback, "Yor-." Before she could speak properly, an arm covered in light suddenly shoot out of Yoruichi's position and wrapped around Koneko.

The light dispersed and a beautiful naked woman is hugging Koneko. She is a slender and well-endowed woman of average height. She has dark skin, golden irises, and black hair. She has waist-length hair with chin-length bangs framing the sides of her face.

"Yoru....ichi-san?" Koneko was shocked silly.

"You can cry more, you know. There, its been hard on you. Let it all out." Yoruichi buried Koneko's head on her bosom and started patting her head.

Koneko wasn't able to hold back anymore and started crying loudly. Yoruichi's scent and aura with the combination of her soothing words relaxes Koneko causing her to let go of her guard and pour out everything she's been holding in.

Kisuke just smiled at the events that transpired.

"Instead of big and little sisters, you two look like mother and daughter pair." This comment earned Kisuke a jab to his face from Yoruichi.

'This is truly unfair.' He thought while rub his nose.

Koneko calmed down after a few minutes of bawling loudly.

"Yoruichi-san?" Koneko looked up to her.

"Yes?" Yoruichi beamed a smile at her.

"You're a human girl?"

"Of course I am. There is no such thing as real cat speaking, and I didn't have any balls attached to me even my cat form."

"But your voice."

"Just a side effect of me transforming."

"Yoruichi-san."

"Hmm?"

"So you really are an exhibitionist just like senpai said."

Kisuke, whose been eyeing Yoruichi's bottom from behind with a serious expression for quite a while now, suddenly saw a foot, and it connected to his face sending him spinning in the air for a few times before dropping a few feet away.

"Why?!" Kisuke protested.

"It's because of your unnecessary words." Yoruichi glared at him.

"Prepare my clothes and another set for Koneko. We're taking a bath together." She continued and walked towards the bathroom with Koneko in tow.
