A/N: Oh boy I screwed up this story big time. When I look back at my original story now I couldn't help but cringe. *Shudders in fear* At the time I was a new writer who had no experience in the fan fiction community, but as time went by. I gained a lot of knowledge from better writers. As for my long ass hiatus and stuck on writer's block. College and work have been ridiculous! Nonetheless, you don't want to hear me complain. So here's a rewrite for you guys/gals.

Sirius I

In the gorgeous palace that resides in the Underworld, Prince Sirius Caelum made his way across the marble flooring in a regal manner. Someone befitting of his status as one of the great houses in the underworld. Accompanying the young Prince and few paces ahead of him was a beautiful lady in a blue and white maid outfit, with long silver hair and matching silver eyes. Her name is Grayfia Lucifage. Head maid of House Gremory.

"Do I have to be here Sirius?" Protested a silvered haired teen, who also accompanies the maid and the prince.

"Are you not my Queen Vali?" Sirius replied to the man in his signature black leather jacket and his green V-neck shirt.

The now mention Vali could only frown at his reply. Not at all pleased with being given a question back. "A simple why is substantial. You know?" He replied.

"As my Queen, your duty is to be my closest advisor, appointed and authorized to make decisions on behalf of their Kings absent and or present. This is such a situation that I need you to be here."

"And what so important that you need me here?"

The Caelum could only shake his head. "I don't know Vali, Grayfia would not specify."

"Whatever the case maybe Sirius I hope it's not bad news."

Sirius grimaced at the idea. He hopes it wasn't the case. Especially with the rise of the Khaos Brigade. Things have been alarming since the Devil Civil War and Great War. The Khaos Brigade has been running amuck in the supernatural community and even in human governments as of late. In one such occasion, his peerage was sent to the Clock Tower to prevent a Civil War. The already unstable political landscape of the Mage Association did not help at all. Luckily with the help of a professor and a student who the latter is his bishop, the Mage Association has somewhat been stable for the past few years or so.

Now having arrived at his destination, the maid generously opens the door for the pair. Across the room and behind the desk sat a man with shoulder-length crimson hair. That person is the one and only Sirzechs Lucifer, one of the four leaders of the devil faction. The man that usurped and revolted against the original Four Great Satans. To him, his father by all but blood. The man that concealed him away from the eyes of the supernatural world after his real father was backstabbed by his own kin.

"Prince Sirius, Vali." Sirzechs respectively nodded to the two. "Take a seat you two, this will surely take a while to explain." Sirius and Vali complied with the offer and settled on the leather armchairs. The maid who ushered them made her way to the side of her husband.

"Sirzechs could you explain the reason for this summoning? Sirius requested the crimson haired devil. The only answer given to him was a blank expression. Only to look away second later to retrieve a letter from under his desk. "Do you know my sister Rias?"

Sirius could only snort. "Of course, I do. You're an absolute sis-con." It was indeed true, there have been days where Sirzechs will go through his collection of photos and point out how adorable his "little" sister is. Though in his opinion, she was beyond adorable she was beautiful! For somebody so young she had the body of a full-grown woman. Though he wouldn't say that outwardly in fear of an overprotective brother.

Off to the side, Sirius could see Grayfia shoulders inaudibly shake as if she's holding a giggle, Vali in the meantime, snickered. All the while, Sirzechs grinned at the jab, "Aye that is indeed true, but…" Sirzechs expression became grave afterward. "I should have clarified my question. Who is my sister among the Devils houses?"

He raised an eyebrow at the question, the young Prince nonetheless answered. "Your sister Rias Gremory is talented with the power of destruction that you and your sister inherited from the Bael clan of that of your mother side. In the line of succession, she is the next heir to the House of Gremory. She also has a peerage but is unfinished as of now." He concluded.

"And?" Sirzechs emphasize as he leans forward on his desk.

"She is also betrothed to Riser Phenex, who is third in the line of succession to House Phenex. Why are you requesting such strange questions Sirzechs?"

At the mentioned name of Riser Phenex, Sirzechs began to ball up a fist like he was about punch something. Sirius seeing the obvious signs of loathing assume that this meeting had to deal with a Phenex." A loveless marriage I will assume. Is it the reason why you brought Vali and me here?"

Sirzechs nodded to confirm Sirius suspicion. Both could only sigh. He needed a drink now, especially something with a kick to it. 'I need my wine now.' He complained inwardly. "Why evolve me in this affair? You know I'm still in hiding?" He questions the redhead once more.

Before Sirzechs could answer his question, Grayfia decided to finally interject in this meeting. "Lord Sirius, when we were organizing old files of destroyed houses from both the Great War and the civil war, we stumble upon your house's files. As we were searching through it we manage to spot a marriage pact that was signed by your father and Lord Gremory long before the Phenex Clan." She respectively said.

"Where would this contract exactly be at?" He received said paper from Sirzechs, the same exact one from earlier in the meeting. He began to read all of it, to the benefits of both houses joining, his own father penmanship, and signature of Lord Gremory to his house's sigil and name at the end. Finish reading it, he handed back to Sirzechs.

"So, my father created this before his death... I see then." He solemnly whispered. "How long have you found this?" He looked at his surrogate father.

"Ten years ago," Sirzechs stated plainly.

"Yet you decided to show to me now?" Sirius furiously voiced. His hands slamming hard on top of the wooden desk.

"Easy Sirius," Calmed Vali. "Let Sirzechs explain before you accidentally light up this place on fire." To his infuriation, Vali and Sirzechs nodded in agreement. "Fine explains." He complied.

"At first Riser seemed to be a decent kid back then, but as the years go by I started to see drastic changes in his attitude. Riser became an arrogant piece of shit who think of my sister as property! I even overheard him saying what he would do unbelievable things to my sister on their wedding night! The reason why I haven't obliterated him to nothingness is that of my damn position as a Maou!" He seethed in anger. Grayfia while rubbed her husband back, trying to comfort him as much as possible. "My love, calm down."

"Sirzechs why do you trust your sister future on my shoulder?"

Sirzechs stood up from his seat and walked up in front of Sirius, laying a firm grip on his right hand on Sirius right shoulder. "Sirius, I am not asking this as one of the Maou's but as your father by all but blood. I want my sister to be happy and to be protected. Her big brother can't be there with her forever you know? You'll be her only hope of getting out of this loveless marriage. Will you accept this request?" He shut his eyes to think about his decisions, contemplating what was the right thing to do. 'What would Father do?'

Now revealing his beautiful Amethyst eyes. Sirius stood up and face Sirzechs with determination. "I accept your request Sirzechs."

Pleased that Sirius accepted his request. The Maou shock his adopted son hand to form the agreement. "You Know Sirius that you're going to reveal yourself to the world if you do this. You can back down right now and I'll find another way to resolve this problem." Said the Crimson haired devil as he releases his handshake.

Smiling at his father figure he reassures him that he could do it.

"I think it's my time to make my presence in the world. I know both the angels and fallen angels will go after me. Even the old Maou faction will try and hunt me down. All because I'm his son and last of my kin to carry Successor's Right."

Catching Sirzechs off guard Sirius gave a firm grip on Sirzechs shoulders with his hands. Looking at him with more determination. Sirius made the Maou an oath.

"This is the only way that will benefit both of us. Sirzechs your dear sister future is in danger. I think it's my time to reveal and bring back my house from the ashes. Sirzechs… father... a Caelum will never leave his duties left abandon!"

Smiling in determination Sirius said his farewells so he could gather the rest of his peerage about their situation. Both Devils waved goodbye one more time before He and Vali used a magic circle to teleport to some place unknown to them.

Kuoh City

In a small city called Kuoh, two figures sat on the edge of the tallest skyscraper and looked down upon the people below. Besides Sirius, a seventeen years old teen with mesmerizing blue eyes sat right next to him. Both enjoying the scenic view.

"It's sure a beautiful night Sirius, it reminds very much of Fuyuki city." Said the young beauty, her wavy black hair blowing gently in the cold windy night. To keep warm she wore her favorite red turtleneck and for some strange reason, she decides to wear a black skirt with black high stocking. 'Perhaps trying to get attention from a certain battle maniac of ours.' He mused.

Sirius chuckled at the fond memories there. "It sure does Rin. The next time we stop by at your home, I'm taking a few of your vintage wine bottles."

"Fine by me, never been a wine person." She shrugged not at all caring for the matter.

The sound of chains rattling interrupted their conversation, both looked behind to see Vali landing. "So why exactly are we all here for? Besides you introduce yourself to the next heiress of House Gremory." Said Vali, having just returned from scouting the city.

Grinning back at the silvered haired teen he informed him the news that will make him glee with joy. "Vali, Sirzechs inform me that Rias Gremory's pawn is the Red Dragon Emperor."

The silver hair responded back with a huge grin himself. "Albion, you heard that? The Red Dragon Emperor is here!"

"I heard you, partner, the Red One has finally awoken." Said the voice of a dragon.

"Vali please refrain from fighting the host of the boosted gear. We're just going to be there to introduce ourselves." Lectured Rin.

"Fine I will, but I won't promise you," Vali responded back with a smirk.

"Actually, you two, only I would be intending this meeting due to our peerages past history with Rias's, it would only complicate things more, so for now just relax in the house that Sirzechs kindly offered us to stay at. 'Yeah especially with a certain nekoshou and blue haired knight of ours.'

"Yes, Sirius." Nodded Rin.

"Fine." Vali nonchalantly waved back.

"Good." He nodded. "Let's head out then." At that, the trio teleported to their destination and regroup with the rest of the peerage.
