Chapter 1: Awakening

I dreamt.

I dreamt of a beautiful woman with black feathered wings, her voice a soft melody that resonated within me.

"Thank you Ryu.. You have no idea how much this means to me.."

I dreamt of a fierce red haired woman, with a fiery attitude that only increased her attractiveness.

"Ba-baka! You shouldn't say that to a maiden!"

I dreamt of a little girl, asking me to go catch some fish..

"Nii-sann! Papa said to bring down the fishing rod! We're having fish for dinner!"

I laughed, and patted her head. "Papa didn't say that.. You should just say you want some fish Yua."

I dreamt of a dog like person calling me best friend, a large humanoid armadillo giving me dating advice, a monkey burying me under the ground, a talking plant, and a fat talking frog!

Seriously, what the fuck..

I dreamt of fighting with these people, entrusting my back to them, and they in turn trusting their back to me. I dreamt of fighting evil.. demons.. set on destroying our home.. I dreamt of a large demon, one I could not fight on my own.. We were fighting it.. We were winning. Until..

I could not move. I tried moving my fingers but I was paralyzed with fear. I glanced at my companions. They too, could not move.. The demon laughed at our helplessness. It had played with us, giving us false hope of victory..

It killed them. One by one it killed them.

I tried to scream for it to stop, to take me instead, but I could not move. I couldn't even clench my fist. My limbs betrayed me. I could only watch as it killed them one by one.. until finally.. I was the only one left.

My friends.. I swore to protect them.. But I could only watch them die..

I fell on my knees, too numb to notice that I could finally move.. It was meaningless now.. they're gone.. everyone..

I repeated their names in my head.. a mantra.. a bloody vow of vengeance..

I saw red. My blood boiled. Rage coursed through my body.

I bite my tongue, the metallic taste and the pain distracting me from pain of loss. I clenched my fist and looked at my fallen companions.. I could not protect them.. But I could avenge them..

I leveled my hateful eyes at the demon. Deathevan. I craved the demon's death. The only thing that mattered was its death. Nothing else..Vengeance..

I draw my sword. And with a surge of power, I let out a scream of both rage and pain as I attacked, losing myself to the rage.

….

Dull eyes gazed at the sky..

I had succeeded.. I killed Deathevan.. I avenged my friends.

I fulfilled my destiny..

But why do I feel so… empty?

I chuckled darkly.. Of course.. Because nothing else is left for me.. Everyone was gone..

I looked back at the cave that I had just exited.. The elders had said that Deathevan would rise again..

NO!

My eyes narrowed. Deathevan? That murdering bastard will appear again?

NO!

That demon will appear again? Taking away other peoples loved ones?

NO!

I will not allow it. I would not. Maybe this way, I can repent for my sin of helplessness..

With a roar, I changed into Kaiser and settled myself over the entrance.

I felt tired.. A great weariness came over me..

I welcomed it.. as I slowly closed my eyes, I saw what remarkably looked like my sister Yua..

How foolish. She was dead. I closed my eyes, ignoring the wet sound of tears falling and the sobbing.

"Onii-san.. sniff*sniif* don't leave me alone again! Nii-san!"

The dream changed.

I dreamt of an endless plane of grassland, swaying with the soft breeze.

I stood there with my eyes closed, feeling the wind on my face..

"What a nice breeze.. Maybe I'll take a nap.."

Laying down, I closed my eyes and prepared to sleep.. But then..

"I think that you've slept long enough my son."

Ryu Bateson, better known in this world as Hyodou Seiryuu, woke up.

Author's Note:

Boom first fanfic prologue!

I haven't read the DxD lightnovel, but I've watched the anime and read the manga, so I have an I idea of what's up.

But on the other hand, I AM a fan of the crossovers. So I was thinking, dragons huh.. Then I remembered, Breath of Fire has Dragons, so why not incorporate it? And boom here I am. Also, I dislike protagonist who are outright perverts.. So.. Ryu will probably be a closet pervert. Lawl.
