Prologue
Atop the roofs of the fabled Yokai Academy, a battle is fought between two powerful titans. On one end is the famed Moka Akashiya. The silver haired school beauty that just happens to be a vampire. A creature that is categorized as an S-Class. A super monster that is nearly unrivaled in strength and power. But on the other end is the fire demon known as Kuyou. The leader of the academy's school safety committee. A being that is known to surpass S-Class and is even revered as a God. He stood in all of his glory in his 3rd form. The most powerful there is, as he claims.
But in the middle of it all was a half-dead human boy named Tsukune Aono. The reason for everything. His humanity was his crime. Kuyou would try to see that Tsukune would be punished for his crime as humans were restricted from going to the academy and the punishment was death.
The scene was rather grim. A bruised Moka clutches a bloodied Tsukune after he had taken a fatal shot to his chest. With time running out, Make injected her vampire blood into Tsukune in a desperate effort to save his life. The downside is that Moka is now too weak to fight and now Tsukune and Moka must rely on their friends to hold off a sadistic Kuyou until Moka can gather her strength.
Kurumu came down hard onto Kuyou, slashing his flaming form with her sharp talons while Mizore and Yukari hit him with their best ranged attacks as Gin clawed Kuyou to his best ability before backing out and hitting again. With too many targets, Kuyou emitted a roar of anger and began to charge up his next attack.
"It's no use!" Yukari cried. "Our attacks are doing nothing to him!"
"But we have to buy Moka more time to rest up!" Kurumu yelled from above as she swooped in for another attack. As she raised her talons, Kuyou dashed forward and took her arm in his fiery grip.
"Insubordinate weakling!" He shouted as he threw Kurumu back before launching a jet of fire into Mizore. Mizore tried to put up a wall of ice which connected with the fire just in time for an explosion of fire and ice to occur, knocking her to the ground. Gin howled in anger and went in with his werewolf speed.
"We can't give up! I won't let you harm these girls!" Gin yelled as he leapt into the air. Kuyou growled and caught the werewolf with amazing speed.
"You pathetic dog! You never learn do you!? Your entire pathetic club will pay the price for defying me!" Kuyou shouted and smashed Gin into the ground before chucking him into a fence near Moka and Tsukune. Kuyou looked at Yukari with a sadistic smile and began to slowly walk towards her. Yukari began shaking in fear as she launched as many tarot cards as she could, only for the cards to burn to ashes as they got close. Kurumu, Mizore, Gin, Moka, and Tsukune watched with wide eyes as Kuyou merely flicked Yukari which was enough to send her crying to the ground.
"Moka..." Tsukune weakly said. "You have to save her..." Moka looked at Tsukune with a saddened expression. Surprising given her usual monotone or prideful stature.
"I-I can't Tsukune. If I try, I'll be too slow...I can't save her!" The Newspaper Club watched on in horror but yet to pained to move. Kuyou looked down at the shaking Yukari and gave a sadistic grin to the group.
"Keep this in mind. Her death is on your hands. But don't worry, you'll join her soon enough." He taunted as he raised a hand and the fire started to swirl in his palm. "Now say goodbye, brat!" He laughed as the fire launch. Yukari closed her eyes and looked away in tears, waiting for her burning death. Only it never came. "WHAT?!" Kuyou shouted in anger.
Yukari opened her eyes to find a boy with his arms raised and his hands shining with a protective ward enclosed around them in front of her. The Newspaper Club gasped in surprise as the fire and smoke cleared to show Yukari and the boy encased in a protected ward.
"Varen...?" Yukari weakly called out. The boy was breathing heavily as he turned his head around and gave a weak smile.
"I came as fast as I could when I heard you were all in trouble..." Varen said between breaths. Varen let down the ward and turned towards Kuyou. With a deep breath, he screamed out; "FUS RO DAH!" The blast forced Kuyou back a few feet, sending dust and even a few tiles from the roof flying away. "I don't know what's going on but if Moka can't fight, that must be bad news..." Yukari nodded and informed him of the situation.
"Tsukune took a near fatal hit to the chest so the other Moka gave Tsukune her blood so that he won't die! Now she's barely at half strength and needs to recover!" Varen absorbed this information and nodded. He turned towards the recovering, angered Kuyou with a determined look.
"Get back and protect the others. Heal them if you have too. I'll hold him off until Moka is ready." The orbs in Varen's hands changed color as they formed into a purple/blue. Yukari's eyes slightly widened as she knew what he was going to do.
"That last spell literally drained you! You are in no position to be casting more large spells!" Yukari protested. "You'll pass out and be defenseless!" Varen turned his head to her.
"If I don't fight him now then we're already defenseless!" Varen responded with an angered look. He turned his head and looked back. "You and I both know you can't fight him either. Just let me do this, Yukari. The Divines shall watch over me." Yukari nodded in defeat and turned to walk away before giving Varen a sad hug around his waist. She quickly broke off and ran back to the group who began to relay his decision to them which earned some surprised looks.
"You? YOU ARE THE ONE WHO SHALL CHALLENGE ME? YOU DARE CHALLENGE THE LIKES OF A GOD?! I WILL CRUSH YOUR BONES UNTIL THEY ARE ASH!" Kuyou screamed in rage, his voice becoming deeper as his anger grew. Varen merely walked forward. His voice filled with much determination, unfazed by the creature in front of him.
"In another life, I have faced far more than you dare to dream. I have conquered Alduin the World-Eater, destroyed Lord Harkon of the Vampire Lords, saved the world from the Eye of Magnus..." Varen stopped his advance 30 feet away from Kuyou and raised one of his palms and flexed his hand. Lightning began to crackle between his fingers and did the same with his other hand. "I was the Arch-Mage of the College of Winterhold! I have slain dragon and monster alike!" The lightning began to surge from his palms with increased ferocity, zapping the nearby ground and air. With one final statement, he raised his hand and pointed towards Kuyou.
"I am the one dragons fear! In their tongue, I am Dovahkiin! DRAGONBORN!"
A/N: This is merely a prologue of a scene later in the story to test out my writing capabilities and hopefully didn't make him too powerful. Leave a review if you see anything wrong but...c'mon, we all know that mages are kinda like this in Skyrim. Better descriptions and story will be uploaded on the first official chapter of the story.
