HSDXD ch 1

I do not own anything except some parts of the storyline please show respect for original authors, mangaka and anyone else who holds the copyrights and makes the anime. I do not make any profit from this. I do not own high school dxd.

I had this really good idea for a fanfiction so I'm going to write it in between Journey into High Class.

Chapter 1 Who am I?

Who am I? Where am I? Who the hell are those people running at me with swords?

"Issei?" A girl asked. She appears to be roughly 20 years old... Yet something tells me I'm wrong.

"Who are you?" I ask.

"Oh no. Not now" The girl said worriedly.

"What?" I ask wanting to know.

"Listen you are immortal. You lose your memories every 140 years because of that" the girl explained "Anyway we don't have time for this I will explain the rest later grab my hand!"

It sounds urgent maybe it's has something to do with that ever approaching army. Hesitantly I trust the girl for some unknown reason and grab her hand. The surroundings blur then change. We are no longer in the old wooden hut village we were in before were now in some kind of bigger city. The town is still made of wood but the architecture is more advanced.

"Who am I?" I ask the girl now we are safe.

"You are Hyoudou Issei my saviour and now I will repay my debt" she said with determination.

Several hundred years later it is 1996.

"Who are you?" I ask a familiar looking girl.

"It's that time again is it?" The girl replied slightly sad "I am your mother. Well adopted mother anyway"

"Who am I?" I ask.

"You are Hyoudou Issei a immortal warper" my mother explains "The average human brain was only designed to last 140 years maximum. So every 140 years you lose all memories"

Really, how can that be true. If so how old am I? Who else have I forgotten. Wait technically it's like I'm dying and being reborn every 140 years.

"So today it's been 140 years since I last lost my memories" I try to confirm.

"Yes it has" my mother explains "I am also a warper but I am not immortal I just have extended life. However I lose my memories every 200 years so as you help me when that happens I help you when it happens to you"

Really then she knows my pain. Wait if she loses her memories then technically we don't know how long ago we met.

"So we don't know when we met?" I confirm.

"No we don't exactly. But we do have a rough idea as we have some diaries from before we lost our memories" my mother explains for me "Anyway your father will be home soon so act like you've bumped your head and got amnesia. We will then take you to the doctors who will say they don't know how you lost your memories or if they will ever recover"

Should I do it? Should I trust her? She could be telling lies. No she's not I don't know why but somewhere deep inside my existence I know she's telling the truth.

"OK I'll go along with the story" I say.

"Thanks Issei"

Later that day.

"So doc is he ever going to remember" My father said to the man sitting in the chair at a computer screen. The guy was wearing a white over coat so was combined with my dad calling him doc it's fair to say he's probably a doctor.

"Unfortunately with all amnesia cases it's the same. I don't know" The doctor replied sadly.

So my mother was probably right about me never remembering anything.

"Then he might never remember. Isn't there anything you can do for my son?" My father pleaded.

"I'm afraid not. By the way according to his record your child has been 17 for the past 10 years" the doctor said curiously while examining his computer screen.

"Oh that apparently he has a rare condition which causes his body to stop ageing" My mother explained. That's probably a lie to cover for my lack of ageing.

"Hmm interesting" the doctors said while staring at me. I don't like that stare. What's with this guy?

Even later that day at home.

"Issei?" My mother said.

"Yes mum" I reply.

"Come with me" I follow my mother outside. She then offered her hand which I accepts. The space around me blurred then we were in a giant empty space.

"I'm going to teach you everything you taught me"

"Ok" I said.

"First things first markers"

"Markers?" I ask confused as to what the heck she's talking about.

"Markers are what you warp to. Look over there do you see a blue ball and a white ball" she said. I look where she's pointing and see exactly what she described. So I nod in response.

"The white ball is your marker and the blue ball is mine. White means your own marker, blue means a contracted ally's marker which you can use. Do you understand so far"

Again I nod in response.

"Good. To warp just focus on the area a marker is placed" my mother explains.

"But I don't know any of my areas" I said not remembering where I've placed any.

"Don't worry I have a map for that" she said while smiling probably remembering herself asking similar questions from when she forgot "Now to make a marker you must focus for 3 seconds. You can then throw it. There are too types of markers fixed and movable. The movable kind can be attached to people or thrown and bounced around a room"

"OK" I say to tell my mother I understand so far. But this is really a lot to take in and remember.

"To teleport focus is required so you need to learn to ignore pain as much as possible" she warns me.

After that I spent the next 5 years training before being recruited by the church as an exorcist.

"Everyone ready" I ask my exorcist platoon as we ready to raid a devils gathering. The devils society has given us permission to slay a group of radical pure bloods that want the old maou back in power. Even the church doesn't want that so we agreed to kill them. I don't have much against devils my grudge is against fallen angels as one tried to kill me several years ago which led to me joining the church. I'm currently outside behind a tree holding the holy sword Ascalon as it's light and easy to warp with. Next to me Irina, Xenovia and the rest of my exorcists nod. Irina and Xenovia young exorcists in training are already highly renounced being able to wield Excalibur fragments. Xenovia Excalibur destruction, horrible sword. Incredibly hard to dodge as it disrupts my warping. Irina wields Excalibur mimic, now that is my kind of sword it can change into anything. I wish I could use it. I could turn it into a knife and slash an enemy from behind teleport behind another then decapitate them with an axe. Then shoot a third in the head by turning it into a gun. I really want that sword.

"Ok let's go" I said while sneaking from bush to bush approaching the massive warehouse. When we've surrounded it I nod to my team and we burst into the place. Shit, theirs guards already at the door. There's too many. I can count at least 100 even if their low classes we are only human one or two shots and were dead. We will be massacred before we even reach the first devil. Come on think, think, think... I'm sorry but I can't save all of you. I focus for three seconds while turning and create a movable marker. I throw it and a random exorcist. Grabbing Xenovia and Irina I warp to the Vatican.

"What?" Xenovia and Irina said as I warp back. I grab two more exorcists and warp back. I repeat this twice more after that when I warp back I'm too late the shots have been fired and are less then a second from hitting everyone I grab the last two people I can save and warp back ounce again.

"What?" The exorcists say.

"Issei you saved us" said a random exorcist but I was too busy crying to notice. Irina approaches me and hugs me "It's not your fault you couldn't have known"

I know that but it doesn't help! I couldn't save them... If only I'd sent an exorcist to recon first then only one would have had to die. No wait if I'd gone myself to do recon none would have had to die. There's an English saying we learn from out mistakes this is one mistake I intend to never forgot. I will take this lesson all the way into my next cycle I will insure it and the next I see those shitty devils I'm going to kill them so slowly and brutally they will wish they were never born. I get up.

"Issei?" Irina said worriedly.

"I'll be fine... Can I borrow Excalibur mimic"

"Of course Issei" Irina said handing me the sword. I warp. I warp back to that blasted massacre with one goal revenge of my fallen comrades. I maybe immortal but I'm not invincible so I'm going to have to be careful. Back were it all started outside the warehouse I turn mimic into a gun with a silencer. I hide in a bush not forgetting to hide my presence. It seems my prediction was right their patrolling for any exorcists left alive. One is walking past my bush. Okay keep calm you can do this. I put mimic in my pocket and grab the mouth of the devil as I leap out of the bush. Using Ascalon I slit his throat. I drag the body back into the bushes to hide it. I repeat this style for 9 more guards. This bush is starting to get crowded I better move. All the guards patrolling are now gone... I think. I look in through the door past my dead comrades. 40 devils that means the majority have gone patrolling further away. I put Ascalon down and create two movable markers in my hands. Calm. Remember think 10 bounces and warps ahead. I throw the markers and they bounce of the walls. Warping to one I use Ascalon to stab and kill two devils I teleport to the other marker and do the same. 4 down 36 to go. All the devils turn to see the dead.

"Hello and goodbye" my markers are bouncing round the room at high speeds. I use mimic to shoot 3 devils in the head. The rest of the devils panic or make magic circles ready to attack. They fire the magic but I just warp behind them stabbing one in the back without even looking behind myself. I slit the throat of two devils by stabbing sideways then swinging round into the others throat. I shoot another 4 devils. Two brave devils charge at me with swords. Too easy my marker was just behind them so I warped to it and decapitated them by turning mimic into an axe. 12 devils down 24 to go. It's a good job these are all low class or I'd be fucked.

Now there's a good idea. I smirk to myself and warp away before I get hit by magic. Using my imagination I turn mimic into an old medieval canon. I fire it killing 10 devils I fire it twice more finishing the rest off.

Now to kill the bastards behind this. I kick open the door mimicking something I saw on TV for some unknown reason.

"Hello and time to die" I say but their not there. I walk in slowly and carefully incase it's a trap. I sense the wind change and dodge left by jumping but I wasn't fast enough and received a reasonable sized cut to the side of my stomach. Shit this might stop me from warping. I look behind me to find the culprits. I can't win... Their too powerful I can sense that now. They are not high class the information was wrong. Their ultimate class.

"Kill him" one orders my attacker. The attacker approached me with a Japanese katana and readies it above my heart. Shit focus, focus, focus. It's not working. She starts moving it towards my heart. I brace myself for my demise after all these lifetimes.

... It didn't come. I open my eyes I'm at the Vatican.

"Issie!" Irina screams as she approaches my injured self. Ha my injury is worse than I thought I'm bleeding quite severally I think I might lose consciousness. Yep I am I feel my consciousness fading. My mind goes blank.

Please review, criticise and advise.

I'm not sure wether this will be a short or long story. But I hope you enjoyed.
