Hey guys great to be back thanks for all of you who reviewed and gave me some idea's for Ophis's power and her power levels in contrast to the Fairy Tail universe.

Chapter 3: A Heart Bleeds Out

STPRY START

Elfman was not someone who appeared to be sociable due to his rough and often haggard demeanor which really belied his soft and caring nature which he showed more often to his sister Mirajane and some other members of the guild he was close too.

At the moment he was walking down the streets of Magnolia where he was seen carrying the newest member of the guild Ophis who was in her 'child' form and was currently asleep.

She had passed out a few minutes after exiting the guild with Elfman and so would have fallen off of Elfman's shoulder if not for him catching her and carrying her towards the house he shared with Mirajane.

They were the Strauss siblings after all and none of them had any plans of moving away from each other unless of course one of them get's married; then it would be too awkward to remain under the same roof as the other siblings.

For now though since neither Mirajane nor Elfman had any plans of getting married yet they shared the same home and luckily they had a lot of spare rooms not being used at all primarily because they spent most of their time at the guild or at other guild mates houses.

That left a lot of space for anyone they wanted to house which at the moment would be Ophis.

As Elfman entered his home he passed by a narrow hallway where various pictures could be found majority of the photo's were of three people in various backgrounds in it was Mirajane, Elfman, and their younger sister Lissana. She had passed away a few years ago causing change in the lives of both Elfman and Mirajane.

For now though Elfman ignored the photo's and the memories they stirred up in him and brought Ophis up to the second floor of his home where a spare room could be found it was formerly Lissana's room but they had long since moved all memorabilia, of their sister, out of it and it was just another spare bedroom.

'I guess it would be fine if Ieft Ophis here' Elfman thought as he lay an already asleep Ophis down on the bed and tucked her in.

After tucking Ophis in he left the room as quietly as he could as not to awake Ophis only to come face to face with his sister who had apparently left the guild a few moments after he did.

"Nee-san what brings you home so early today?" Elfman asked. It was unusual for Mirajane to be back so early in the night she usually came home close to midnight for a few hours of sleep before heading out to the guid in the morning.

"Oh Master gave me the evening off. He want's me to take Ophis out for some basic necessities tomorrow since he could tell Ophis had no money not to mention any spare clothes to wear so I seemthink it only proper for me to help her out." Mirajane explained to which Elfman nodded. Mirajane had always had a motherly side to her which she kept hidden only ever showing it to her siblings but with Lissana's death it changed her that she was now friendlier with others than she was before.

Elfman could only guess that seeing Ophis awakened some of her old maternal instincts.

"I see so I guess you won't be at the guild tomorrow then?" Elfman asked to which Mirajane nodded.

"Ok, goodnight Nee-san" Elfman said as he went to his room he was tired after the day's activities not to mention the shook of seeing some of Ophis' powers earlier.

"Goodnight Elfman." Mirajane said in a kind voice before she cracked open the door to the room Ophis was in only to see Ophis trembling in her sleep as if she was being frozen and burned at the same time.

Before her eyes Ophis seemed to transform into an older version of herself. Ophis now appeared older at her appropriate age of 15 she had a cup size of around high C to low D though she was still wearing her gothic lolita outfit which looked more sensual in Ophis' older form. The skirt was barely reaching her knees and the front of the skirt was parted to reveal her thighs and inner legs also showing to anyone looking hard enough that she wasn't wearing any panties underneath. The top somehow stretched to accommodate her new size but still didn't cover anything in her chest so her nipples were still covered by the black tapes in a cross design. Her hair grew out as well now reaching her upper legs. All in all Ophis looked very alluring in her older form.

Moving closer to the still trembling young woman Mirajane wrapped her arms around her and began to try and sooth her by rubbing circles into her back.

"shh it's ok your safe here." Mirajane whispered into Ophis' ear as she continued to calm the young woman down.

Suddenly as if she awoke from the nightmare Ophis clutched onto Mirajane and began to cry silently. She wasn't outright sobbing or anything but tears just kept pouring from her eyes.

"H-hey what's wrong?" Mirajane asked Ophis who simply kept on crying and didn't appear to stop any time soon.

Grasping even more firmly onto Mirajane Ophis didn't answer her and instead grabbed onto Mirajane tighter and cried onto her shoulder without making much noise.

"Ophis? Hey it's ok what's wrong?" Mirajane continued to ask. Makarov had told her before she left after all that Ophis was hiding something from them.

"Don't move….just don't move." Ophis said in a somber tone though her face was still expressionless tears were still pouring nonstop from her eyes.

"Shhh it's ok Ophis your safe here. I'm not going anywhere why don'tyou tell me what's making you cry? I know it may not seem like it but it actually does help get some of the pain out of your chest." Mirajane said with a kind smile as Ophis loosened her grip slightly allowing for Mirajane to look at the tear stained emotionless face of Ophis.

"I-I don't know. I can tell though it's from my recent memories but I don't know why that is making me cry." Ophis said as her tears came to a stop.

"What memories why don't you tell me everything huh?" Mirajane said as she adjusted herself on Ophis bed to make herself comfortable for what she knew would be a long story.

Ophis then decided to retell her memories to Mirajane to help herself make sense of her strange reaction to her own memories.

"I see are you sure you don't know why you cried earlier?" Mirajane asked after listening to Ophis' recount of her battle with Kaguya and the merger with her friend becoming who she is now.

"No" Ophis shook her head negatively. Along with the merger with Sasuke into becoming who she was she maintained both memories of Naruko and Sasuke as well as the knowledge they both possessed in terms of power and skills and when they merged into her she had gained immense power and skill all of which she was still beginning to just understand however one of the things she didn't gain in the merger was her full range of emotions.

She had emotions alright it was just she couldn't understand them or express much of it just yet.

"I see. Well then Ophis as your new nee-chan I guess it's my responsibility to help you understand these things." Mirajane said before she was cut off by Ophis.

"Nee-chan? Why would you want to be my nee-chan? We look nothing alike?" Ophis asked Mirajane with a childlike expression of beffudlement.

"Silly looks or even blood has no importance to the bond people share and what I want our bond to be is one of sisterhood." Mirajane said with a pleasant smile on her face.

"As for our earlier topic I guess you could say that even though you may not understand it yourself at some level you do in fact feel the sadness of what had just happened to both Naruko and Sasuke. You feel both their sadness at the world they lost as well as they lives they may never live now that they are in essence you." Mirajane tried to explain to Ophis as best as she could why she was crying earlier.

"I see so because people died that makes it sad? Why is that sad?" Ophis asked Mirajane. To her most things were temporal and faded to pass away in the sands of time.

"It just is because for us dying means that we no longer can continue what we want to in this life it means a total and sudden stop to our existence affecting not only the people who died but those closest to them as well." Mirajane explained as best she could just what death meant to humans.

"I see did you lose someone as well?" Ophis asked in curiosity. To her knowledge only people who had experienced loss can properly explain and deal with it.

"Yes. Elfman and I had a younger sister once. She passed away a few years ago on a mission." Mirajane said with a few tears slipping out of her eyes. It still hurt to recall such memories even though she was mostly over it.

"Hmm I guess it would be nice to have an older sister like you." Ophis said honestly. She was quite attached to Mirajane by now. She had explained a lot of things to her and by the end of it she had become quite attached to the older woman.

"I see thanks Ophis. Well you better turn in we have to get you a lot of things tomorrow." Mirajane said to Ophis as she tucked the young woman into her bed once again.

"I see goodnight nee-chan." Ophis said as she started to head back to sleep.

"Goodnight to you as well Ophis." Mirajane said as she walked out of Ophis' room to get some sleep for the next day.

Next Morning

Elfman had just woken up from his usual dreamless sleep. It had been quite a while since he last dreamed when he slept or at least remembered a dream when he awoke.

Getting dressed in his usual clothes which consisted of loose formal wear which was pretty much just the coat, and pants since he felt he was too manly for an inner shirt.

Going downstairs to fix himself breakfast he entered small kitchen he and Mirajane owned only to receive a bit of a shock.

In the kitchen counter was seated a young beautiful woman she looked distinctly like Ophis except much older and her breasts were pretty much on display the only thing stopping it from full on nudity was the fact she had a skirt which he could see had nothing underneath and the fact she had tapes covering her nipples.

"O-Ophis is that you?" Elfman yelled with a full face blush had accidentally stared to long at her skirt which had parted in the front revealing that she was wearing nothing underneath it.

"Hmm isn't it obvious as to who I am?" Ophis said in confusion he had after all been the one to bring her to his home last night.

"I-It's not that weren't you a young girl yesterday? Why do you look older now?" Elfman asked now that he had calmed down a bit more from his initial shock.

"Oh Whatever form I appear in doesn't matter to me I could assume any form I wished I just merely am more comfortable with this one." Ophis explained. She could look like whoever she wanted it was just that she was more comfortable with her base form which she appeared in when she was first 'born'.

"I see." Elfman said with a blank face he really had no idea what to say to that.

"Ahh Elfman good morning! Good morning to you too Ophis!" Mirajane greeted in an upbeat tone.

"Good morning nee-chan." Elfman and Ophis greeted back.

"Hey nee-chan since when did Ophis call you nee-chan as well and why does she look like that?" Elfman asked his older sister assuming that she had the answers to his questions. She was pretty much the source of most information in the guild after all.

"Oh about that me and Ophis had a little chat last night before sleeping and she accepted me as her nee-chan. As for why she looks like the way she does now it happened last night as well I guess; it doesn't really matter though." Mirajane answered as she began to cook for the three of them.

With that Elfman just nodded to her answers it wasn't really much of a shocker to him that Mirajane would see Ophis as a younger sister. It was just something that came naturally around a young girl though she looked like a young woman right now.

In the streets of Magnolia

After breakfast they had parted ways with Elfman going back to the guild and Mirajane taking Ophis to go shopping.

Needless to say Mirajane was amused at the reactions garnered from people staring at Ophis' apparel. She may have taken Ophis as a little sister but she was a model for the Sorcerer Magazine in which she modeled for money.

It had quite a few revealing photo's of her and other models though it was mostly her. From her modeling career she lost much of her modesty which was barely there to start with so she just ignored the revealing outfit Ophis was wearing since she first arrived.

Now it seemed every hot-blooded male could not keep their eyes off of her.

Their eyes were fixed on her breasts which was on full display only her nipples were covered by tape blocking them from gazing at her breasts in their full glory.

Mirajane simply laughed to herself as she saw the wives and girlfriends of the men in a relationship hit their counterpart for ogling at Ophis' breasts.

Just then a small breeze picked up and hiked up Ophis' skirt revealing to all the men gaping at her that she was not wearing underwear and that she had just inadvertently flashed everyone who had been looking at her.

This served to knock out all the men, who had passed out with a bloody nose and a perverted grin on their faces, and give the women blushes that lit up their faces at the indecency of Ophis.

"Oh my! It looks like we'll have to pick you some undergarments first. Good thing we were already here." Mirajane said with a demure giggle at the whole thing. She was by no means a prude so she found the whole thing very amusing.

It was fortunate that they were already near the lingerie shop Mirajane was bringing Ophis since she just knew that Ophis would need proper underwear at least before anything else.

Fortunately she guessed correct and had gone here first.

"Ophis what do you want to wear?" Mirajane asked as she brough Ophis inside and showed her towards the underwear section.

Ophis merely looked at her questioningly.

"I see do you have a favorite color then Ophis." Mirajane asked since she took Ophis' silence to mean that she didn't understand what they were doing here. So she took it upon herself to be the one to choose for Ophis.

"Black." Ophis said simply as she stared at what Mirajane was choosing for her.

"You know I can make my breasts bigger." Ophis said as she saw Mirajane try to figure out what kind of Bra size would fit Ophis.

"Really? That's interesting but they're at the right size for your current form so leave it as is for now." Mirajane said as she finally figured out Ophis' size.

"Come on Ophis we still have to get you some other clothes." Mirajane said to Ophis after she finished paying for the things she bought for Ophis.

"Oh wait a minute Ophis why don't you wear this first." Mirajane said as she handed Ophis a black underwear.

Taking the garment from Mirajane she hiked up her skirt and started to slip the underwear on before she was stopped by one of the attendants of the store.

"E-excuse me miss you can't do that here!" the attendant said with a large blush on her face.

"Huh? These are mine can't I wear them?" Ophis asked confused.

"You can but please do it in the changing room!" the attendant replied.

"Oh, ok." Ophis said as she went to go change inside the changing room which was pointed out to her.

"My, my you sure are interesting Ophis." Mirajane said as she laughed lightly at what had just occurred. Sure part of it was her fault for not pointing out to Ophis to change in the dressing room but she just couldn't help herself find the whole thing amusing.

What more amusement would Ophis bring to her as they went on their shopping trip.

CHAPTER END

Thanks for reading and reviewing in the last chapter. I have decided to hold a small shopping trip for Ophis early on in the story but for those who can guess where the shoping trip was based on I have another surprise down the road regarding the nicknames Ophis would have for the guild members later on.

I have decided to make Ophis stay in her current adult form for those of you who still couldn't picture it in their minds there's a photo of it in the DxD wikia.

As for her power levels I will leave it at her full power it's just that she is still figuring out the full extent of her powers. So she will be growing as the story progresses but still i would like to ask for help for those who can suggest me powers Ophis might possibly possess.

Thanks for reading don't forget to review but not flames please.
