Raynare grunted while nursing her wings, arm… well all her everything.

It was supposed to be a simple job, to seduce that perverted boy and kill him before he becomes aware of his Sacred Gear and pose a threat to the Grigori.

She has to admit that while a high-level pervert, Issei Hyoudou knew how to be courteous with a girl in a date, pouring all his heart into it. And the look he had when he killed him… that was one of the most enjoying moments of her life!

At least, Azazel-sama will love her!

If it weren't for some kind of something that crashed into her with the strength of a car and that launched her a good distance from the fountain she was sitting on.

Cursing, she took a look at whatever attacked her only to see a red-haired woman in a hoodie whose green eyes gleam with cold fury.

"Who-what are you?" spat Raynare trying to level eyes with that interloper, furious, though a little scared. Ridiculous. Fear? Her? From a worthless human woman?!

Though to her merit, the intruder had somehow skipped the anti-intruder barrier and surprise-attacked her with force unbecoming of a normal person. Was she a magician or Sacred Gear user?

"I could say the same to you." the red-haired spoke "Unfortunately, seeing someone butcher another person" and she looked at Issei's corpse with a hint of sadness "and especially one that I know, doesn't leave me with too much time for presentations, you know?"

Hard-steel look restored and a bluish purple aura flaring in her body and eyes, Jane Shepard took a posture and Biotically Charged against the Fallen Angel.

The New PE Teacher

Some days before…

Commander Jane Shepard, member of the Systems Alliance N7 Forces, Lioness of Elyssium, first human Spectre, Citadel protector and galactic hero, finds herself…

Yelling at some students at a running track.

"Come on! I've seen greenhorns run faster at you! Matsuda, I know you were at the Athletism Club so you can do better! Issei, stop staring at the girls breasts, leave that for 'nother time! Seriously, Motohama. All that time running away from the girls and still struggling in my class? LIVE IT UP, PEOPLE!"

"HI!"

Yes, somehow she's a PE teacher at Kuoh Academy of the 21st century.

Let us explain.

After getting fed up with the Catalyst bullshit of the Reapers' purpose of collecting and preserving life and been given a choice, she decided to finish everything once for all and blow the Catalyst and consequently, the Reapers.

She did not expect to end up in a bed, in a house, in Japan, in the year 2014. After recovering her wits, she discovered a huge amount of her gear, including her armors and weapons in spares. She also had, apparently, a significant stash of element zero, various omnitools and more military-grade stuff. All in various conspicuously large rooms in the basement.

Obviously, she thought it was a dream, punched herself, then knew it wasn't a dream.

Being a huge nerd herself, she attributed it to some ROB or another bullshit force that existed mainly on those Isekai stories.

After calming down, she searched for some message or tip about what she had to do. The protagonists in those kinds of settings were normally given some task before given the chance to return to their world, saving the world most of the cases.

Unfortunately, Jane couldn't find anything else, so she sat at the couch and tried to think things more calmly. The stress of a galactic war finally caught up to her and slept a day and half, snoring.

After probing that the refrigerator indeed had food and having some lunch, the reality of it all fell on her with its unforgiving weight.

There weren't news of Reapers, of the Systems Alliance, of the Citadel, of her friends. She was completely and utterly alone.

Now she not also had to cope with the fact that a lot of people died in her presence, including some of her comrades, but that she was also in the past without a purpose.

They may say that Commander Shepard was an invincible hero but behind all that armor, professionalism and cybernetics, Jane Shepard was merely human. A person.

She broke and cried like she never did in her live.

After calming herself (again), she planned what to do now. Technically, she has served more than 10 years in the Alliance Navy so she could retire in any moment. And with no Reapers or any other purpose, Shepard decided to pursue a less risky career, at least to pass the time. Whoever or whatever brought her there left her with enough money to subsist some years. And she didn't even need to hack the registry, she also had legal and consistent papers already, courtesy of the same ROB.

She liked cracking some systems from time to time, you know? She was a little frustrated for not being the one that did it, or Tali, or Liara, maybe Mordin but he was primarily a biologist and she didn't know how capable he was with computers and information compared to the others.

Though being an ex STG and a multidisciplinar salarian scientist gives him ton of points in his favor...

So she took a job offer at a prestigious local institution, Kuoh Academy, as a Physical Education teacher. She had experience instructing new recruits after graduating from the N course so it couldn't be that difficult.

She's also keeping all her equipment to herself, after all those things weren't supposed to exist on Earth at her current era. Not to say that some of the weapons there are akin to mini-nuclear weapons. Why would she need a box full of Reaper Blackstars, anyway? She could arm a small army, for the love of God!

Curiously, some people at her surroundings flinched in pain while hearing the capital G god name or some Bible lines. Meh. She doesn't judge. She wasn't even religious. Don't ask about why she would be spouting biblical verses.

Besides, what would happen while teaching at high school?

The New PE Teacher

"I've seen that you're distracted by something, Sona." Rias Gremory told her childhood friend and rival, Sona Sitri, while sipping tea.

Sona sighed "It's nothing, only thinking about the new teacher."

"Oh? And why that would be?" Rias asked interested. While she knew Sona was a diehard workaholic that takes her duties as Council President and Sitori heiress seriously, she never thought about anything so intensely unless they were school troubles, like the Pervert Trio, or family affairs, like when would her immature sister arrive to embarrass her.

Sona picked up her glasses "Jane Shepard. Age 31. From Canadian roots, she served on the US Marine corps and later at the Navy SEALs. A remarkable soldier who accomplished various campaigns with minimal casualties, a clear example of professionalism and discipline that this school strives for. At least, that's what her resume and non-classified background says."

"So, a soldier and a very good one at that. Are you planning on recruiting her?" Rias asked with a raised eyebrow. While Devil peerages were usually formed of Sacred Gear users, magicians and other warriors and creatures, a full-pledged modern soldier wasn't something so common.

One of the main reasons is that they're constantly monitored even on the battleground or MIA so they can't approach dead combatants without rising suspicions. Not to say that those that retire prefer to live a life without conflict because they're tired or heavily traumatized.

A resurrected mercenary, one who lost his entire squad by a mine field, couldn't move when he heard explosions and rabidly fought like he was going to a death battle even if the Game fields were secure and had infirmaries and healers a teleport apart so he costed his peerage many Ranking Games despite his skills.

At least those that remain sane were highly beneficial, even though they are recommended to psychiatrists just in case.

"While having a war veteran could be good for my peerage's fighting potential, that's not the case, unfortunately." Sona tiredly answered.

"So what's biting at your head, Sona?" asked again Rias.

Sona took breath again "By what we've seen of her, her contribution to the school is enormous. Not only she's good at her classes but there are numerous cases were she took of the role of middlewoman between students but also in staff affairs. She's been helping everyone that needed and called for help within reason. She listened to those that needed venting and even gave them advice, somehow replacing the psychiatrist. And called out the peeping toms and giving them serious reminders at what would happen should they continue. And maintained a cold head at every crisis that arose. Should anyone else tried to do everything she did all this time here could have been overwhelmed due to the sheer pressure of doing all those selfless acts."

From all of that, Rias was reminded for how Shirou Emiya from the Fate series could be. A completely selfless individual that wouldn't stop for anything to help and save everyone in their own twisted version of justice.

Or maybe she was overthinking it.

"Are you worried for her or-" and for that, Rias adopted a sly expression "-are you just jealous?"

Sona harrumphed "While I admit that she's one of the finest examples for what everyone at Kuoh or everyone in the world should strive for, no. The problem is that behind all this professionalism, selflessness and dedication for duty, at the end she's a completely and irremediable carefree, unhinged, otaku, pervert!" Sona stopped to take a heavily breath from her increasingly intense rant.

Rias just stared with an emotionless face, trying in all she could thinking how this was a prob-

Oh.

Oh!

Ooooohhhh!

"She reminds you of your sister, right?" Rias could only think of another person really good at her job that was all that carefree inside and outside of it.

Serafall Leviathan. One of the Four Satans and in charge of foreign affairs.

Also someone who lives and thrives in the fantasy of Magical Girls and even had a TV series with that premise.

And possibly a siscon worse than her own brother. Granted, while Sirzechs also dotes her a lot, Sona's more serious personality combined with her sister own bubbly nature leaves some interesting reactions.

Mainly leaving Sona a flustered mess from all that embarrassment.

Those are funny spectacles for those in and out-of-universe.

Sona sighs in relief at being understood "While not to the same extent as her, she leaves quite the impression. Remember the "I'm not pedophile, only pervert" speech?"

Oh, how could she forget. It was some days after Shepard's first day that a rather conservative and jealous teacher tried to recriminate her of being a pedophile, knowing that the ex-soldier was lesbian, a fact that she casually let out in simple conversation, at the entire school. Kuoh Academy was a previous all-girls school until some years ago, with many of the boys going due to that fact. It would stand that some adult would take care of the situation with less than benevolent thoughts… Even if that possibility can be very small with that kind of argument and without proof. He was backed by a large majority of the old staff, so his stupid theory had some support.

Her reaction? To reunite all the student and teaching body and let out a speech. A speech that revealed her as a completely pervert that appreciates perhaps a little too much the female body as well as a die-hard otaku.

But also that she was one of iron-deep morals.

She explained that even with a mind as deprived as hers, SHE would never stoop so low as the criminal vermin that she hated, that that would be against all that she stood for and the reason she signed up to the military.

That she's seen all the worst of humanity but also the best, of how she lost precious comrades and let civilians die, SHE would never change the way she is. A woman with a duty for the people.

Somehow, it all spiraled in a moralising speech about for everyone to stand up for what they believe, how to not being let down by others' prejudices, to denounce bullying and to follow their dreams and know the limit where someone would get hurt.

I was only a speech. A simple motivational speech done by someone trying to defend herself. Something that wouldn't look out of place in a trial or a politician's press conference. But everyone could feel it. The feelings she put out in those words. The look of hurt when she recalled some of her mistakes. The proud she put in her duty.

If it wasn't for the fact that there was anything magical about her, every being related to the supernatural at the school would have thought that she was using a charm or Sacred Gear to bring all attention to her and make them susceptible to her words.

However, it was simple pure unaltered charisma that won the profound respect of her public.

Even if her speech's final words were "I am a pervert, not a pedophile."

Like if those were the magic words, nearly every person in the campus applauded, cried and let out their biggest anxieties and dreams.

"I WANT TO BECOME THE HAREM KING!"

Yes, you can imagine where that came from…

Suddenly, a female student took the stage, with tears in her eyes, and confessed she was being sexually harassed by the same teacher that accused Shepard with troll logic.

At the end, the jerkass homophobe teacher was arrested, Sona had to enforce more measures so that incidents like that wouldn't happen and Shepard gained the school's absolute respect. She even had a fan club…

In her humbling words "I only wanted some respect, then improvised a speech using my own experiences. I never wanted to escalate just like that. Ok, maybe I overreacted a tiny bit. But hey, at least it worked."

Rias let out a small chuckle "Well, that sure took a lot of guts." then her voice took a little melancholy "Not even I can come up with that confidence…"

She then looked into her friend's eyes "Sona, not everyone can be as serious as you'd like them to be. Human and even Devil lives can end up at any instant, so the only option people have is to live their lifes as much as they would like. Leviathan-sama does the same, even if sometimes it ends up as overbearing for others." especially Sona "And apart from that, Shepard doesn't look like her at all, you're only thinking this too much. Try to relax a little."

Sona took a moment and sighed "You're right. Shepard doesn't look like nee-sama. I don't know what took over me. Maybe I just need a rest."

"Yes you probably do." Rias said before finishing her tea.

Sona then changed subject "By the way, it seems that you took some interest in Issei Hyoudou."

With that conversation continuing, nobody imagine that the gears of fate were turning for the Kuoh Devils, a certain pervert Red Dragon Emperor, a galactic legend and all the supernatural society at large.

One thing is certain, Shepard would only have a decent retire after a loooonnng time.

AN: I wanted to realize this vision from last year's summer while reading Beyond the Outer Gate Lies series. What if instead of Dresden, the same Commander Shepard ended up as a teacher in Kuoh Academy? The only things that I can spoil is that Shepard will end up with tons of friends, allies, enemies and tons of firefights and explosions.

Sorry if Sona seemed somewhat OCC but this version of Shepard can be quite… passionate with her hobbies and has her crazy moments from time to time. I wanted some situation were that gets very clear, first solid thing that passed in my head was that.

And just in case, a very HUGE apology for every homosexual that reads that. I obviously know that being gay/lesbian doesn't make you a molester but heard this: if a straight person can commit acts of sexual harassment/abuse who's to say that a homosexual cannot do that? Again, sorry, that only depends on the person but after rereading this draft I saw that it could be a little rude. Even the narration lampshades that it's ridiculous without evidence, but human stupidity makes you do things like judge someone without thinking about what the other really does or thinks.

For some, it could be ridiculous that Shepard has a lot of things from her home universe but when put in a world where every myth is real, she WILL need every advantage possible. The Shepard in this story is a Vanguard/Sentinel hybrid for your information.

And I would like, please, to have criticism. Flames no, thanks. I want to improve in everything I can, writing good stories while enjoying them, and probably without offending someone. And no power levels bashing.
