Rise of the Dragons
Hey everybody, it's BlueCelebi. I've decided to write a Highschool DxD fanfic, which will be my first of this series. This is partially inspired by EmbraceMadness' story, Secluded Dragons, which is my favorite of all the DxD fanfics so far. BUT HE HASN'T UPDATED SINCE JANUARY! :( So Embrace, if you're reading this, update! Moving on, in this fic Issei will have both Heavenly Dragons, and try to start a Dragon Faction. He will also have a harem. There may or may not be lemons, but there will definitely by some lime in later chapters (give it a couple of chapters, there's no set date). I'll say who's in the harem at the bottom.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything. At all.
Issei Hyoudou was walking down the street, going back to his house after school. A new episode of Code Geass was going to show today, and he wanted to watch it live. Ever since he had started watching Code Geass, Issei made it a point to stop hanging out with his pervy friends, and smarten up. He started by following Lelouches lead, and learning chess. Halfway through the season, Issei was pretty good, beating all of his friends, and most adults, even at his young age of ten. As he was about to turn the corner, he noticed that there was no one around. No kids, no cars, no adults, no nothing. Then, he heard something that sounded like wing beats. He looked behind him, and saw three men, each with a three pairs of pitch black wings.
"Hello. Are you Issei Hyoudou?" The apparent leader asked.
"Um, who's asking?" Issei replied.
"A Fallen Angel. I'm assuming you are, since you match the description. I'm terribly sorry, but I'm afraid we have orders to kill you." The man said, with a face that showed little regret.
"I don't suppose we could just talk this out?"
"No, I'm afraid we can't. Pray, my friend, for you will die this day." With these words, the Fallen Angel summoned a light spear, and threw it at Issei.
After a moment of flying, it hit just next to Issei, exploding and throwing Issei across the street, where he stopped when he hit a wall of a church.
"Issei, I told you to prepare yourself." The Fallen Angel said.
"I... Don't know... What you want... Please... Let me live..."
"As I said, I cannot."
[Boy. Do you want to live?]
Yes! Of course!
[Then do as I say.]
{No! Do as I say!}
[Don't listen to that white fool! Listen to me!]
{That redneck is racist! Listen to me!}
[Did you just call me a redneck you cracker?]
{What if I did? What are you going to do? Huh? Kill me? Good luck!}
Wait... Stop fighting! Help me!
[Oh yeah. You're still in danger aren't you? Cracker, I got this.]
{Fuck you redneck. I'll handle this one.}
[Issei, to summon me, all you have to do is focus your emotions into your left arm, and shout, "Boosted Gear!"]
{No. Don't do that. Summon me, by focusing your emotions into your right arm, and shout, "Dividing Gear!"}
Uh... Can I do both?
{[No. Choose.]}
Tough.
Issei focused all his emotions, his will to live, his love for his parents, and his future bride... He wanted to live, he NEEDED to live! So he focused them into both of his arms, and shouted,
Boosted Gear!
Dividing Gear!
As he said this, a red gauntlet appeared on his left arm, while a white gauntlet appeared on his right arm, and wings grew from his back.
[Fuck you.]
{Yeah, you should have just chosen one if us.}
HOW THE HELL DO I FIGHT?!
[For me, shout "Boost!" It will double your power. There will be a ten second delay, then you can do it again. After a couple times, just aim your hand, and yell, "Explosion!"]
{As for me, you need to touch one of them, then yell, "Divide!" I also have a ten second delay. The result should cut their power in half, and add it to yours. I suggest starting with the polite one.}
[I'm way stronger though. Start using my power.]
{No! Start with me!}
Shut up. I'm assuming that if I die, you die. So deal with each other, just for this fight, ok?
[Fine.]
{Very well.}
Issei shouted,
Boost!
He felt a surge of power flow through him, and he charged the three Fallen Angels.
"What do you think you are doing boy?" The lead Fallen Angel asked.
"Preparing myself!" As he said this, he punched the lead Fallen Angel in the face, sending him flying into another building.
Divide!
And as soon as he said it, a white aura enveloped the Fallen Angel, and a white ball emerged from his chest, and flew towards Issei. Once Issei absorbed it, he felt even more power flow through him.
Meanwhile, the other two Fallen Angels were cowering in fear at the sudden comeback of the human they assumed would be an easy kill.
"Let's finish this!"
Boost!
Explosion!
And a beam of energy shot out of his left arm, and killed the two other Fallen Angels. He began panting, having exerted too much energy.
[See? I told you that you should have just used one.]
{Yeah. Now you're all tired. I'll take control, and fly you back to your house.}
[No. I will assume control.]
{Do you have wings?}
After a moment of silence, he continued,
{Exactly. Now shut up.}
[Come make me…]
Issei suddenly lost what little control of his wings he had, and was flown home. By his arm. That makes sense, right? Right? Because if not, something's definitely wrong.
Once at his house, Issei laid on his bed, and closed his eyes. Um, who are you?
[Does it matter who we are?]
{It very much matters. I am-}
[I AM DDRAIG THE RED DRAGON EMPEROR!]
{And I am-}
[He is unimportant. Just listen to me.]
{Albion, the White Dragon Emperor. Don't listen to the rude redneck. He's racist.}
[Shut up you cracker. I am not.]
{Yes you are, you just called me a cracker, just because I'm white.}
[Well you call me redneck. How's that any different?]
{I don't speak, act, or taste like a cracker. You act, behave, and speak like a redneck.}
[…]
{Is there anything else you need Issei?}
I'd appreciate it if you would stop fighting. It's a real pain, especially if I'm in another fight.
{I didn't start it. He did.}
[No I didn't! He stole my girlfriend!]
{No I didn't, she was just crashing at my cave after a long night at the pub.}
[Really?]
{Yes. Truce?}
[Ok. Truce.]
Huh? Did I miss something?
[We have been fighting each other for the past couple millennia. Anyway, I'm going to take a nap. Ask Alboin about anything that you need. He's the brains, while I've always been bronze.]
{True. Have you gone to sleep yet Ddraig?}
[…zzz…]
{Good. Issei, I don't want to have any secrets between us. I banged his girlfriend. But I do regret it, she got really upset after Ddraig commented on her figure, so she got me drunk. Please don't think poorly of me, or tell Ddraig. We were best friends before, but he would never listen to reason, and always attacked me before I could talk. In all of past lives, being transported from one host to another, we would fight each other. Well, more like he would attack me, while I would try to talk to him, then kill him out of irritation. Which reminds me, you should be happy. Never in existence has there been someone who has had both Ddraig and I in their possession.}
I wouldn't call being attacked by three people I've never met lucky.
{Ah yes. I should also explain that to you as well. The three strongest Factions of this time are the Angels, Fallen Angels, and Devils. All of these are derived from The Bible. Long ago, there was a war. During this war, the three Faction were almost destroyed, until Ddraig found out what happened between me and his girlfriend. He went on a rampage, and I fought back. They assumed that we meant to destroy the world, and thus sealed us in something called a Sacred Gear. Only humans can be born with them, as they were Gods gift to humanity. Also, this is a big secret. So you have to promise not to tell anybody before I tell you.}
Ok. I swear on my life.
{New rule: never swear on your life. You're part dragon, which means when you do, and you intentionally break it, you will die. But you won't if you have truly done everything in your power to keep your oath.}
Intense. Wait, did you say I'm part Dragon?
{Yes. Because you have both Ddraig and I, you have become more Dragon than any other being that wasn't born a Dragon has been. You will gain extreme strength, speed, endurance, and lifespan. Also, you will attract more members of the opposite sex. Most of our hosts have appreciated that fact. Anyways, the secret: God of the Bible, is dead.}
WHAT?!
{Yep. So don't tell anyone ok? It would cause a mass panic, and many lives would be lost. Any other questions?}
Is everything in the Bible true?
{Hm. It's kind of true. It's like those pathetic movies that are 'based on' a true story. Most of the events did happen, but not in the way it says, with varying degrees of accuracy.}
Can you tell me anything about the three Factions?
{You ask a lot of questions. I like that. And of course I can. The Angels are the weakest, mainly because they can't make any more Angels. Their leader is Micheal, and their second in command is Gabriel. She's super hot. And a virgin, or so I've heard. Did I mention that The Angels are getting desperate for more members? Like children? And I did mention that members of the opposite sex will be naturally attracted to you?}
I get the feeling that you want something…
{I'm the White Dragon Emperor. I have a thing for Angels. Ddraig has a thing for Devils. It's one of the reasons that he had girlfriend that would cheat on him (A bitchy Devil), and why she had to get me drunk first (Because I don't condone cheating). Moving on, the Fallen Angels are the second weakest, since they can get more members by either having kids, which is encouraged in Fallen Angel society, as opposed to the Heavens, where it's looked down upon, since that's how many Angels fall. The other way they can get members is by recruiting Angels, and having the Fall from Heaven. Their leader is Azazel, and their second in command is Kokabiel. I've heard that Azazel is a pretty cool dude. The Fallen Angels are kind of a mix of the two Factions, so Ddraig and I never really liked them, nor disliked them. The final Faction is the Devils, who are undoubtedly the strongest. They can gain members by having kids, or by turning members of other races into Devils. Because of this, they have far superior numbers, and their members have a wide variety of attacking forms, unlike the other two, who are largely limited to Light attacks. As I previously said, Ddraig has a thing for Devils. I never understood why.}
Do you have any idea why the Fallen Angel faction attacked me? I didn't do anything, last time I checked.
{Hm. Like I said, Azazel is a pretty cool guy. I only briefly met him once, but I have heard very nice things about him. However, the second in command, Kokabiel, isn't. He's a warmonger. I wouldn't be surprised if he put that hit squad on you to prevent a potential threat. You probably shouldn't hold a grudge against all Fallen Angels, because I doubt they would all approve of this.}
Hm. These Factions sound dangerous. Should I align myself with one of them?
{I'm to biased to say. I would, of course, say the Angels, but Ddraig would argue that you should align yourself with the Devils. In fairness, the Devils have made significant progress from the barbarians that were portrayed in the Bible. But I still wouldn't trust them too much.}
If I'm part Dragon, shouldn't I just join the Dragon Faction?
{Dragon Faction? There's no such thing. Well, there is, but it's just something that this one Dragon named Tannin used to get some Apples. Don't ask about the Apples.}
Seriously? Why?
{I just said don't ask why kid!}
I meant why isn't there a legitimate Dragon Faction?
{Why would we need one? We rock. We don't need to gather to prove it.}
But then you could help each other, and protect each other. That's good. Right?
{I suppose so.}
Who's the strongest Dragons right now?
{Well, there's Great Red, who's the most powerful being in the universe. Then there's Ophis, who is the second most powerful being in the universe. Then there's some Evil Dragons, but I haven't heard from any of them for awhile. Then the Dragon Kings. There were six, but then Tannin became a Devil, so now there's five. And Ddraig and I used to be somewhere between the Evil Dragons and Ophis. But then we were sealed, and we were never more powerful than any one of the Dragon Kings. But now with both of us in you, you have the potential to become the most powerful being in the Universe. Not that you'll achieve that for quite some time.}
What would you say about making a Dragon Faction? I mean, there's no real downside, even if it's just a loose agreement between Dragons to help each other whenever possible. Or it could be as great as assembling a Dragon Army.
{Eh, why not. I can't really control you, so you have all the power here. You should ask Ddraig too though. Actually, I have nothing against it. But, I do suggest one thing: If you do this, make sure you're on friendly terms with all three Factions. If you're not, there's a chance that you could start a war. If you do, then most Dragons would see you as a warmonger, and wouldn't even consider joining you. Actually, some might because you're a warmonger. But that's besides the point.}
Any advice on how to keep on good terms with all the Factions?
{There's one sure way. Induct members of their Faction into your Faction. I suggest you do this by marrying them. I did mention Gabriel, right?}
Wait, but then I'd have to marry at least three women. I don't think they'd go for that.
{You'd be surprised. It's very common in Devil culture, and the Fallen Angels don't believe in monogamy, let alone marriage, so they wouldn't have a problem with them. But you might want to keep an eye on them, if you don't want them wandering, if you get my drift. As for the Angels, they might be a little difficult, but very doable. Especially if they get really desperate. Also, there are other, smaller, Factions. Such as the Youkai, the Japanese, Greek, Norse, and Hindu religions. I also suggest you add at least one of their members into your harem as well.}
Hold up, who said anything about a harem?
{I did. Didn't you hear me? You're starting a Dragon Faction, and the best way to make that start out smoothly would be to start a harem, with at least one member of each of the Factions. I say you should add Gabriel to that list.}
I get it, you like Gabriel. Calm down. I'll do my best, you have my word. But if I were to add her to my harem, wouldn't she Fall from Heaven? Or at least stop being an Angel? That would cause some turmoil.
{Well, Angels only Fall from Heaven if they put something above God, which happens when people fall in love. As long as she doesn't fall head over heels for you, she'll be fine. And you wouldn't convert her to being a Dragon, while you can do something similar, she would still be an Angel, she would just also be a member of your harem.}
Well, that sounds ok I guess. Can you wake Draig up?
{I know I can't hear how you spelled it, but I know you spelled it in your head with just one 'D'. There's two. Ddraig, not Draig. And yes I can.
DDRAIG, WAKE THE FUCK UP. THE KID WANTS TO TALK WITH YOU, YOU PATHETIC REDNECK.}
[…zzz…]
{He mentioned something about banging a Devil.}
[Huh? Banging a Devil? Wha-?]
{Kid wants to talk.}
[Oh. Thanks. What's up kid?]
You have a thing for Devils, right?
[Yeah. What about it?]
I'm thinking about starting a Dragon Faction, since it looks like there isn't a real one. Albion suggested that I start a harem, mentioning Gabriel by name, several times, and he also mentioned that you have a thing for Devils. Do you know of any that are worth adding to my potential harem?
[Some say that Serafall is the hottest women in Hell. THEY'RE ALL LIARS. SHE'S A COLD HEARTED BITCH.]
Wow. Ok, I won't add her, calm down. Do you have anything positive to say about the Devils? Or just mean things to say about Serafall?
[I suggest adding this girl named Rias. She is the next in line for the Gremory Household, and is pretty hot, from what I hear. If genetics are anything to go by, she'll be smoking hot. I haven't seen her, since I've been stuck in you these last ten years, but I did hear about her when she was still in her mother, while in my last host. She might be engaged to some other Devil, since she's a pureblooded Devil, and the Devils are all about that, but if you talk to her brother, Sirzechs, and he should agree to it to maintain friendly relations with the Dragon Faction.]
Ok. And do you have any problems with starting a Dragon Faction?
[Why the fuck would I? I want to become stronger, and this looks like a great way to do that. Not to mention, getting some of the most powerful beings in the Galaxy in the same place would be badass. No one would dare stealing my girlfriend then! By my girlfriend, I mean your girlfriend. Since I'm stuck with you until you die, so everything that's yours, is mine.]
Oh. Goody. One last thing, and this to both of you: Can I see you two? Instead of just closing my eyes, and thinking? And can you train me to be stronger? I don't think I should go and start making a Faction while I'm ten. Maybe once I graduate College, or at the least highschool.
{That's two things. But yes, we can show ourselves to you. And we can train you. But which do you want to work on first, your physical body, or your magic?}
[I say we train his body first. If he gets to powerful for his young, weak body, he might die.]
{True. For this, there's not much you can do. Just work out often, eat right, and get lots of sleep.}
Wait, that's it?
{Yep. Although, you can avoid studying, since we know how to create a hidden dimension, so you can pause time, go there, and study while you take a test. But keep in mind, while we can freeze time, you can't move. You can think, but otherwise, it's useless. But when used in combination with the alternate dimension spell, you can study for as long as you like, then come back and do the test. The alternate dimension will look like an empty field, although you can put any inanimate object in. Within reason.}
That's cool. Will I age? And can I train there?
{No. On the alternate dimension, time actually goes half as fast. But since you use your time freeze spell, no one will notice. You don't age in the alternate dimension, you just think. You can practice using risky spells that would normally run the risk of backfiring, with no risk to your actual body. Unless you die. But neither Ddraig nor I would let do die. In short, you go there, remember everything that happens, and it can help muscle memory, but you can't grow, muscles or otherwise.}
Helpful, I suppose.
[So, what now?]
Opening his eyes, Issei said, "We train."
It's BlueCelebi again. I'm not sure who exactly will be in the harem, but here goes:
Definitely in:
-Gabriel
-Rias
-Koneko
-Kuroka
-Asia
-Raynare
I MIGHT BE including, and if I do, they won't have a major part:
-Irina (actually she might play a significant part)
-Akeno (I never did like her, but I have a feeling people would be mad if I don't put her in)
-Xenovia (I don't like people who call random people witches. Which she does.)
-Le Fay Pendragon (I do want to, but if I do, she won't appear for awhile, so don't get your hopes up, nor down)
-Risers Peerage (I just don't know them well enough, and I don't want to make an OC)
-Kunou (Same as Le Fay.)
-Elmenhilde Galnstein (A mix of Le Fay and Risers Peerage. But I will try, just because she's a vampire.)
And then there are those who I will DEFINITELY NOT include:
-Serafall (Same as Risers Peerage. I know almost nothing about her, and don't give half a shit about her.)
-Sona (Same as her sister.)
-SonasPeerage (Same as Risers peerage.)
-Rossweisse (She's a freaking crybaby. Hell no.)
-Ravel (I'd feel like a Pedo if I did. I'm sorry. I really am.)
-Grayfia (Sorry. Albion said it, cheating is bad. I know that some fics have found ways around it, but I'm not going to.)
And that's it. If you have any ideas, leave a review, PM me, do whatever you like. Keep in mind, authors LOVE reviews, and the more reviews I get, the more inspired I am. I'm not going to hold this fic hostage, because I'm not crazy, but it's true.
