Deity's Annihilation
Issei Hyoudou woke up from a dream. His dream. His nightmare. 'Always the same one. I wish I could just forget about it', he pondered for a moment before shaking his head and heading off to the bathroom. He walked up to the sink and washed his face to get rid of the cold sweat that the nightmare induced. As he left his face dripping, he studied his reflection in the mirror like always
He was about 6"2, had just not quite shoulder length, brown hair, chocolate coloured hair and he was quite muscular. Not body builder league, but he had some muscle, and abs. He would class himself as lean, if he weren't so modest. But the most striking features about him are his scars. His most prominent one would be the on reaching from just above where his heart is to his right hip, right across his chest. His whole body is littered with scars as well, some only about a couple of centimetres, to others up to 6 inches.
It was the plane crash. The same one that killed his parents. The same one he had the nightmare about every night. It was the cause of so much pain in his life, physically and mentally. He was tired of looking at the outcome of the event that took his parents, and got in the shower. He just stood in the shower, letting the water fall off his body as he daydreamed about what would his life been like if he had his parents.
His alarm snapped him out of his thoughts and he remembered what today was, the first day of his new school. He would be joining Kouh Academy as a second year. He needed to go to school again. despite losing his parents, he was fully capable of taking care of himself since he was just an 11-year-old child, alone since the crash. Now being 17, he was now fully experienced at living in the world.
After Issei got out of the shower, he got dressed and had some breakfast, just bento, his favourite. He still remembered the first time his mother made it for him, even though he was only an infant, he remembers it vividly. After his breakfast he got into his uniform. It fit him rather well, showing off his well-toned body. After he packed his bag full of the things the school told him he needed for class, he went on his way to school, for the first time in 5 years.
Issei walked everywhere, he liked the time to think. Once he walked into the school gates, he young man got nervous. He was quite shy, since he was afraid of getting close to people in case he lost them like he lost his parents. A group of girls in the distance spotted him and started to walk towards him, curious of the new boy.
"You must be the new boy in our class. I'm Miamono Katase, but you can call me Katase!" The first girl greeted him. She had pink hair and pinkish-brown eyes. She seemed quite energetic and Issei was quite nervous because of that reason. He wasn't used to people so happy.
The next girl had brown hair, put up in a unique fashion, and dark brown eyes. She bowed to him formally, "I'm Humaru Murayama, but because you look kind, you can call me Murayama", Issei got flustered at her input. He was not used to people showing him the much respect.
The last girl added her comment in as well, "Hi! I'm Ugiteri Hannai, but please call me Hannai, or Han-chan, all my friends do!" She finished with a peace sign beside her eye. Hannai had pale blue hair that reached her chest and light green eyes which shone like a jewel. Issei blushed heavily at the last part though.
"F-friend? I-I haven't had many friends", he confessed, rubbing the back of his head shyly. The trio looked at the young man kindly and with a small twinge of pity. Hannai reached out to his side to hold his hands, but he flinched and she stopped. When she saw this, she felt worse for the teen and kept reaching out. When she touched his hands, he avoided her eyes and gave a small blush.
"It's okay, we are your friends now", she comforted him, "What's your name?"
"I-Issei, Hyoudou Issei"
"Well Issei-chan, let's be friends, okay?", The other two looked on at the two, sadness at him for not having many friends, but a small twinge of envy at Hannai. Issei was kind, shy and handsome. They wanted him for themselves, but quickly drowned those thoughts out, and decided to help Issei.
"let's show you where the class is, we're in the same one anyway", Katase interjected. Issei looked up at her, gave her a nod and a small, kind smile. 'He must have had a rough life to be this shy and introverted. I wonder why?' she questioned silently while she started to walk away. From a certain building in the distance, a crimsoned haired girl watched the confrontation with peaked interest
"Who was that boy? I know he's new, but something about him makes me… want him.", Rias mumbled to herself. Another girl stepped out of the shower that the room owned. The room was set as an old Victorian suite, with two long sofas' and a large desk near the back wall. The girl walked out in nothing but a towel to wrap her slender body. She had waist long, black hair with purple eyes and a massive bust.
"Ara ara Rias, see a boy you want? I may want him first", The girl said suggestively, while biting her finger sexily.
"No, there's something about him Akeno, it draws me to him, yet he seems shy, maybe even emotionally damaged", Rias explained while still staring out the window at where the boy was. The girl, Akeno, dropped her sexy attitude and looked at her best friend/king in slight realisation, she may need this boy, to maybe take care of HIM.
'I hope he's good enough for the task Rias, for your sake'
-Line Break-
While Issei was traversing the corridors of the school, Issei was very uncomfortable of the amount of looks he was given. Looks of hate from some boys because he was walking with the kendo trio, others of respect for the same reason. But in the mix were looks Issei didn't understand. Longing, jealousy, even downright envy at the girls walking with this tall, handsome, shy boy. The trio was getting annoyed at the glares, especially the envy ones. They picked up the pace to get to the class.
Upon arriving at the class, the bell rang, signalling the beginning of the day, Hannai told him to wait outside for the teacher to bring him into the class, and he abided to her instruction. When he heard the teacher call him, he entered the class. The second he stepped foot into the class, there was a mixed response, a look of kindness at how shy and nervous he looked, ones of lust and passion from girls as they were unconsciously drawn to him, enticing blushes from their skin. But two pairs of eyes from two certain perverts from the back where the most prominent, hatred and a killing intent.
The nervous teen made his way to the front to where the teacher was indicating him. "My name is Hyoudou Issei, please take care of me", he said shyly, then a moment later the class burst out in riot of how cute and handsome he was. Many were blushing and grinding their legs together unknowingly under the table. One of the perverts got pissed off and stormed up to the front in a fit of rage.
"You pretty boys should just die; you're not wanted here!" The monkey looking one shouted and grabbed him by his top, ripping it by accident. Gasps resonated throughout the room at the sight before them. At first they were of lust, then pity and sorrow.
Issei was confused at the moos shift, so he looked down at his shirt and his eyes shot open. All of his scars were visible, allowing everyone full view of his scarred flesh. The pervert, Matsuda, let go of his shirt and tried to apologize but Issei just ran out of the room in panic of everyone seeing him like that. He ran of the grounds in record time, not even realising the breakneck speed at which he ran at. The young boy turned the corner and rested against the wall, catching his breath, not because of the running, but of the panic.
'Oh no. I have to move school, there'll be too many questions.' He thought to himself, He was snapped out of his thoughts when he heard a scream. He looked around and saw a woman being mugged by a group of masked figures. He got pissed off at that. His father taught him that if he ever saw anyone in need of help, no matter the risk, help. He ran over to the group.
"Hey! Let her go!" He shouted while running at them. The group turned around and saw Issei. They laughed before recognising his face.
'He's the target Kokabiel wants dead! What a coincidence we meet him here!' The leader thinks to himself. He looks to his group and nods. Issei notices a slight buzz coming from the man, then he spots something about him. His hand is glowing! The glowing grows till it becomes into a spear.
'What is that?!' Issei ponders, before it's too late. He stops running for some reason and looks to the man. The spear is gone. Issei feels a wet sensation running down his arm. He looks down at his shoulder and sees the spear lodged in his bone. Wait, It's in him! Pain flares throughout his body and his brain finally registers the spear and he falls to his knees.
The man's surprised, "Huh, you're still alive after that spear hitting you. You're pretty strong, for a human." He adds. He charges up another spear as his group just laughs at his comment. Issei's instincts kick in as he jumps to the side to didge the next spear hurtling towards him. The movement sent a fresh wave of pain coursing through his body
'Shit! This hurts so fucking much! What is ths?!' He was lost in thought for a moment. It was his demise as he didn't register the spear coming at him.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!" He screams as the spear pierces his chest just below his heart. He fell to his knees, as all sound was drowned out as he stared at his blood soaked hands. He needed help.
'Please, someone, something, lend me the strength to defeat these things. Please. Please! PLEASE! LET ME BEAT THEM!' he screamed in his thoughts, thinking it would go unheared, as he slowly lost hope.
[Issei…]
He tried to located the source of the call, but he couldn't move his body, he thought it was just his imagination.
[You want my help?]
"…Y-Y-Yes"
[You want to be able to beat these fallen?
"Yes"
[You want to keep your life?
"Yes!"
"What are you talking to?" The man called to Issei, thinking he went crazy from blood loss. Oh how he was wrong.
[You want to return to life? To enjoy life to its fullest?!
"YES!"
[YOU WANT TO SEE TOSE GIRLS AGAIN?!}
"YES! I DO!"
[Then use my power child! Don't let these people take your life away! Show them my power! SHOW THEM NOT TO MESS WITH MY HOST!]
[BLANCE BREAK, ELEMENTAL ARMOUR!] "BALANCE BREAK, ELEMENTAL ARMOUR!"
A blinding light shone throughout the street, blinding the group of muggers/fallen angels. The shout echoed around the road, shaking the ground a little bit, threatening to break the windows of nearby houses and parked cars.
"The fucks going on?! Why can't I see?!" The leader shouted at nothing. A few moments later the light died down, revealing a horror to the fallen. Where the teen used to lie, was a suit of armour. The armour was pure black with red jewels on its chest, hands and knees. The helmet had a visor which allowed nothing to be seen into it, and black wings on the back with spikes all the way up the sides.
The figure took a step forward, still looking down. It looked at its hands then looked at the group. They looked like they just saw the dead rise. In a sense, they did.
[Heh, haha, HAHAHAHHAHAHA] A power surge blasted from the suit, blowing the fallen angels onto their rears, wind swirling around the teen, threating anything to enter to be torn to shreds. Lightning cackled around the ground, snaking out around a 10m radius before disapating.
[YOU DARE HARM MY HOST? DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM?! I AM THE ELEMENTAL DRAGON SVARKOVA!], the voice reverberated around the area. Most of the fallen didn't know who the dragon was, but the smartest one, Drakki, knew of the dragon from legends. There was a dragon who controlled the elements, struck fear into the hearts of even the strongest gods, drained all the hope of those who faced it, and almost caused the end of the world. This dragon was called Svarkova. It was one of the strongest dragons in existence, behind Great Red and Ophis.
Drakki's face drained of all colour, his heart rate increased five-fold and his legs started shaking like mad. He got up to try and fly away, before a strong wind smacked him back to earth with a sickening crunch. His body formed a crater and his neck was bent at an unbelievable angle. The others started to panic and started to scramble up, but the lightning that was arcing along the ground grabbed them before they could make flight.
[YOU TRY TO KILL MY HOST, THEN TRY TO RUN OFF?! YOU PISSED ME OFF!] Issei reached out his arm slowly and from the tips of the gauntlets, a stream of fire was bounding towards them. The group of fallen tried desperately to get out of the electrical bounds, some even trying to tear their limbs off to get free. But to no avail.
The fire spread across their body, engulfing them whole, only their screams remain. Then, silence. Issei was still for a moment, before he started to sway for a moment, then the ar our broke and he fell to the ground
[I'm sorry for taking control of your body my child, but you wouldn't be able to take the stress]
Issei was already asleep and healed from being in the armour, the only thing that'll be wrong with him tomorrow will be the tiredness from using the balance break when he was that weak, but it was need. Svarkova teleported him to his bed to rest
[Sleep well, my child]
END NOTE
This is my first story, I hope you enjoy it. The idea came partly from LordxSesshomaru's story Earthen Fury (he's a great writer, I highly advise checking him out), and partly from the stories Longinus, Zenith Tempest. Issei's parents died in a plane crash and he was one of the only survivors, left with scars to remind him of what he lost that day. Inside him, he has the hidden Longinus, Deity's Annihilation, the dragon Svarkova. Svarkova in this story is used instead of Ddraig and Issei is emotionally scared, and it will be hard for him to interact with people, but yes, he will be part of Rias' peerage, but with a twist.
If you like where this story is going, please review it, favourite it, all that good stuff, it really helps, and ill try to upload as much as I can, but with school it may be hard.
See you in the next one!
