How is everyone doing today? This is a story that's been bouncing around in my head lately so I decided to write it out and see what you all think of it. Thank you all for taking the time and reading the story. Please let me know what you think of it but please no flames. I'm also accepting OC's with more details at the end (don't want to spoil anything) Now sit back and relax and enjoy the new story.

I don't own Highschool DXD nor Destiny.

In a forgotten part of the underworld where no creature has stepped foot in since the faction war, a man with hair the color of blood wearing a silvery grey armor and a cape slowly walked through the ruined gate into the remains of the town. His emerald eyes scanned the ruins as he walks past destroyed homes some doors creaked or fell as his feet echoed in the empty streets. It seemed the town was lost, forgotten in time however Sirzechs one of the four great satans knew better. He knew he wasn't alone, he felt countless eyes on him as he walked with an air of purpose. Ever so often the area was filled with faint growls and what sounded like barks as if whatever was watching him was communicating with each other. As he passed by a fountain in the center of the town in the darkness ahead he felt something gathering blocking his way protecting whatever was behind them. He couldn't see them due to the abysmal darkness however he could feel the tension and cautiousness from the area.

"I wish to speak to your leader, your king, I have some matters to discuss with him." Sirzechs said his voice filled with determination.

There was silence from the darkness for what seemed to be an eternity before he felt the presences step to the side allowing him to pass. He walked through the darkness and stopped as he heard a voice behind him from the darkness he just passed through

"Na sha zu bo ka." (The houses shall fall) A deep guttural voice said.

"How would your kell feel if he knew you just threatening an old friend of his?"

The voice said nothing else as Sirzechs continued to walk down the path towards a large mansion. It looked run down as vines and weeds consumed the courtyard of it as he opened the doors they let out a loud creaking sound once he stepped onto the marble floor the doors swung shut as the lights came on illuminating the large entrance hall filled with books and seats as well torn banners from different devil houses as well as a torn fallen angel and angel banner from the faction war.

"Sirzechs Gremory, it's been quite some time hasn't it?" A voice asked from behind Sirzechs.

Sirzechs turned around seeing a young man about 17 years sitting on the stairs smirking his sandy blonde hair a mess as he wore a cloak with a dark purple phoenix on it.

"Akihiro "Blaze" Phoenix, the Fallen Phoenix. It has been a while hasn't it my friend?" Sirzechs said grinning slightly.

"What brings one of the most powerful beings in the underworld to see an outcast like me?"

"I came here to make a deal with you Akihiro." Sirzechs said getting right to the point.

Akihiro sighs before he stands up walking past Sirzechs.

"How many times do I have to tell you I won't join Rias peerage nor anyone else. I refuse to follow a leader who is weaker than me." Akihiro said.

"I'm not here to talk about that, I'm here to talk about a situation that Rias is in. We may have made a mistake-" Sirzechs started to say before Akihiro started to laugh.

"The mighty Sirzechs actually admitting he made a mistake. That's a first time." Akihiro said between laughs.

"So what was the mistake?"

"We made an arranged marriage for her...with Riser." Sirzechs said.

Akihiro suddenly stopped laughing as he glared at Sirzechs.

"You did what?!" Akihiro yelled.

Sirzechs could see outlines of creatures in the darkness move around in response to Akihiro sudden change of attitude and raised voice.

"How stupid can you possibly be Sirzechs?" Akihiro growled lowly.

"I admit it was stupid and father and I regret it." Sirzechs said with regret in his voice.

Akihiro sighed pinching the bridge of his nose.

"What do you want me to do about it? You know I want that bastards head on a platter before I set it on a pike or let the young ones use it as a toy." Akihiro said seriousness in his eyes.

"When the time is right...I want you to step out of the shadows and make your presence known as well as theirs." Sirzechs said cutting his eyes towards a patch of darkness.

"You really have gone insane, haven't you? If I do that then we will be hunted down and slaughtered."

"Not if we make an alliance."

Akihiro places a hand on his chin thinking before he hears growling and barking noises as well as the strange language from the darkness as he looks towards the area nodding.

"Very well we accept however under one condition when and if the time comes you and the gremory house will help us, no matter what. Agreed?" Akihiro asks his eyes never leaving Sirzechs.

Sirzechs nods holding his hand out to shake as Akihiro shakes his hand.

"Rias and her peerage have ten days to get ready for a rating game against Riser. I want you to help them as well."

"Very well, I will...in my own way that is." Akihiro says

Sirzechs nods before leaving the mansion and heading back to his home. His mind wondering to a single question. Did he make a good choice in dealing with a faction who absolutely hates the remaining three factions? After all, how could you trust something that has long forgotten what humanity and loyalty even is?

There is the first chapter of The Fallen Phoenix I hope you all enjoyed it and are looking forward to the next chapter. Now for the OC's I need some to be Akihiros' inner circle the ones he can trust the most. If you want to submit an OC I need a name, old faction or human, appearance, personality and if you want some background and it can any desire and ambition besides wanting power as long as it's a very strong desire, for example, a desire for revenge wealth etc etc. Til next time take care and have a good one everyone.
