(NXT Tuesday)

With Triple H as head of creative, he has made some changes to the developmental brand. He has dropped the 2.0 part of NXT, but still stuck with the ruling of hiring young talent to keep up with the foundation of building the future of WWE.

For Ilyas and Io, the change was a very big positive move for them. The Joshi Judas was at the make up department while a big smile planted her face following her first date with the Descendant this past weekend. Cora walked over and smirked as she noticed Io's big cute smile.

Cora: why you're in a good mood today, Io-san

Io was a little startled by Cora's sudden appearance.

Io: oh Cora-san, when did you get here?

Cora: just to see you all smiley

The young star said and teased the Genius of the Sky while Io blushed.

Io: u-uh...

Cora: tell me what happened

Cora said as she smirked and was curious.

Io: well Ilyas-kun and I went on our first official date

Cora: aww, where did you guys go?

Io: oh, we went hiking at the Everglades. It was a tiring, but it was worth it

Cora: because Ilyas is with you

Cora smirked while Io hide her blushing red cheeks in her hands, attempting to deny it, but knows that the young star is right of her statement regarding Ilyas.

Cora: any idea what your future boyfriend will do tonight?

Io: he's not my boyfriend yet

Cora: key word is "yet"

She said with a smirk.

Io: well Ilyas-kun has a tag team match with Marcel-kun

Cora: Imperium huh? Sounds very interesting

Ilyas was involved in another match as he once again teams with Imperium in tag team action. The Descendant's alignment with his mentor's group is becoming clear to the crowd, but they will find out more tonight in the tag match.

(In the ring)

Edris Enofe and Malik Blade were in the ring ready for their match. Then the classical music entrance theme of Imperium played and the camera pointed at the silhouette of the three members of Imperium. The trio of professional wrestlers stood on the stage with their hands behind their backs with Walter leading Barthel and Ilyas to the ring. As all three got on the apron, they all wipe their feet to respect the mat.

Barthel and Ilyas got in the ring to get in position like a military squad. Then the Ring General got inside the ring and got in between the two members. Walter called for the formation and all three put their arms behind their backs in full synchronization.

Walter exited to the ringside area as Barthel and Ilyas are set for action. The Descendant got out of the ring and allowed the Impeccable German to start for the team.

From the opening bell, Barthel locked up with Malik and he immediately took the up and comer down with a waistlock, however Malik got out and escape the hold, but he walked right into a vicious uppercut from the German Superstar.

Blade immediately backed up and tagged in Edris. Barthel then tagged in Ilyas and as Edris ran towards him, Ilyas fired back with a pop up powerslam while Walter nodded as he looked on.

Ilyas then saw Malik trying to help his partner, but as the young star ran in, Ilyas ducked a shot and took down Blade with a hard chop to his chest, causing the sound to echo through the Capitol Wrestling Center.

The Descendant saw Edris at the corner, and has called for Barthel to execute a team maneuver as they shouted.

Ilyas and Barthel: NEIN!

Ilyas ran towards Edris for a corner uppercut at exact moment with Barthel nailing Edris with a kick to the back of his head.

The Descendant measured and set up as he waited for Edris to get up; as Enofe got up, Ilyas took him down with a Slingblade for a pinfall attempt, but Enofe managed to get his shoulder up.

(End of match)

Blade managed to create separation between him and Barthel, and crawled to his corner, but as he was about to tag in, Enofe was pulled down by a hooded figure and the mystery person landed punches on Enofe.

Blade was confused of what was going on, while behind him Barthel tagged in Ilyas. As Blade turned around, Barthel took him down with a running uppercut followed by the Death March from Ilyas for the pinfall victory for Imperium.

Walter nodded and smirked as he got in the ring to raised Barthel and Ilyas' arms. Then the hooded figure joined the three men in the ring. The figure lowered his hood and removed his mask and the person was the Italian high flying muscle of Imperium Fabian Aichner.

Walter got a mic and the Ring General spoke.

Walter: here I present to you the greatest group of professional wrestling, a group of men who brought honor to our sport and respect to the mat. I am the Ring General Walter! Here are Marcel Barthel, Fabian Aichner and Ilyas Rizal! We are Imperium! And the mat is sacred!

All four members of Imperium stood in the center of the ring with their arms behind their back while their entrance theme played and it signified and confirmed that Ilyas is now officially a member of Imperium.

(Backstage)

Cora and Io were in shocked of what they saw, from Aichner's shocking return to Ilyas' confirmation as a member of Imperium.

Cora: wow... he's a part of them now

Io couldn't get the image of Ilyas standing side by side with Walter, Barthel and Aichner. In her mind, she found Ilyas as a part of Imperium hot.

Io: Ilyas-kun, part of Imperium

Cora: that makes him hotter, huh Io-san?

Cora smirked and teased her friend while Io blushed more.

Io: I have to admit, it is hot Cora-san

Cora: oooh, having the hots for the Imperium's Descendant

Io felt her cheeks getting hot and hid them with her hands, while unbeknownst to her Ilyas quietly sneaked up on the Joshi Judas while he signaled Cora to keep quiet.

Io: Ilyas-kun looks great with Imperium, and with strong allies, he is more dangerous and not meant to be messed with

Ilyas smirked as he leaned down to whisper and tease the Joshi Judas.

Ilyas: I don't even want to mess with you too

Io yelped and jumped from her chair while she blushed even more as Cora chuckled.

Io: Ilyas-kun, don't scare me like that!

Ilyas: sorry about that, so you say I look dangerous and not to be messed with?

Io: hai... but also-

Cora: hot!

Io: Cora-san!

Ilyas smirked and nodded.

Ilyas: hot huh?

Io blushed and admittedly nod.

Ilyas: a hot Imperium Descendant

Io: and that was a great match you had

Ilyas: arigato, Io-san

Ilyas playfully patted Io's head and went to wash up.

(Small time skip)

Io and Ilyas drove home for the night and the Descendant dropped off the Joshi Judas at her apartment building.

Io: thanks for the ride Ilyas-kun

Ilyas: of course, anything for my... special friend

Io smiled and blushed a little bit from Ilyas calling her his special friend while a cute smile was planted on her face.

Ilyas: Io-san, wanna go out again tomorrow for our second date?

Io: oh hai! I would love to!

Ilyas: perfect, we can have lunch, we can try some Asian cuisine

Io: oh I can see all the delicious food they have

Ilyas: we can try each other's cuisines from out home countries

Io: oooh hai, I want to try some Filipino food

Ilyas smiled as Io was excited of tasting some food from his home.

Ilyas: oh you will like Filipino food, I guarantee it

Io: I am excited already

Then Ilyas parked in front of the Joshi Judas' apartment.

Io: oh I hope Kairi-san is not making noises

Ilyas: noises?

Io: she has a husband who is also living with us since our apartment room is twice as big as the others

Ilyas: oh Kairi-san is married?

Io: hai, she is married to a wonderful man, Kenji Cruz

Ilyas: oh wow, is he a wrestler too?

Io: hai, he is a WWE Superstar just like us, and he is on SmackDown

Ilyas: oh wow, tell him and Kairi I said hi

Io: hai, thanks again for the ride Ilyas-kun, I'll see you tomorrow

Io smiled and kissed Ilyas' cheek before she got out of the car and went inside her building. Ilyas smiled and drove back home to his apartment.

(Time skip to his room)

Ilyas was resting in his bed while he looked over his phone to see that his Imperium membership was trending on NXT's Instagram and Twitter accounts.

He put his phone away for the night and rested as he was now excited for his lunch date with Io tomorrow.
