There are many things I will not hesitate to protect. My life, my past, but the thing I will protect above all else is my brother. Well adoptive brother. He is the only one who is friends with me at Kuoh Academy, the only one who will talk to me that I will have lengthy conversations with. And the one person who, above all else, should not know my secret…
My name is Vincent. I have short dark silver hair and blue eyes. Some people regard me as handsome, so I go with it. I am known around the school as the Anti-Social Prince. Why? Well apart from me being handsome, the only person I will talk to for more than two minutes while at school is my brother. Speaking of which, my brother is well known around the school, but for a different thing entirely. Let's just say he is a-
"Vincent-Nii," someone yelled to me. I looked to the right and speak of the devil, it is my brother.
"Yes Issei-Nii," I asked calmly.
Issei Hyoudou is my brother. Years ago, after I ran from my real family, I met the Hyoudou family. They adopted me and thus my life changed. I am now known as Vincent Hyoudou, the adopted brother of Issei Hyoudou.
"They are after me again," Issei panted.
"Who?" I asked, thinking who wold be after my perverted brother. The Basketball Club, The Student Council (hopefully not)…
"The Kendo Club," He exclaimed. I pointed to hide under the table I was sitting on.
"Hey," a girl from the Kendo club asked as the whole group surrounded my table at once, "have you seen him?"
"Who?" I asked the girls innocently.
"You know who," the girl threatened as she grabbed my collar. She does not scare me. The things Oka-san does is five times scarier than what she can threaten. We glared at each other for thirty seconds before I sighed.
"He went that way," I said pointing to around the corner of one of the buildings.
"Thank you," the girl said before she looked towards one of the other girls, "Katase, stay here in case he lied."
"W-wait," Katase stuttered and blushed. Oh, so she is one of the girls with a crush on me. I see.
"No buts," the girl said again, "make sure that pervert does not make contact with his brother."
The rest of the Kendo Club left, leaving me, Katase and Issei, who is still under the table (hopefully), behind. I need to get this girl gone, otherwise Issei would be staying under the table till the end of the lunch break. Where is a distraction when you need one? Hang on…
"Do you have to stay here?" I asked the girl, leaning close to her,
"M-Murayama-san," Katase stuttered, "S-said that y-you may b-be l-lying a-about Issei…"
"What would I gain," I said seductively as I leaned closer to the Kendo girl, my soft breath against her face, "If I lied to you?"
She stuttered more and blushed twice as much before fainting from the distance of my lips from her lips.
"You can come out now Issei," I told my perverted brother. He got out of under the table.
"Thanks Nii-san, I owe you one" Issei said, before I hit him over the head.
"Now get out of here," I said as I shoed Issei away. Honestly, I love my brother (like a brother girls, I am straight!), but there are times where his perverseness grates on me. And yet this is better than my previous family…
LATER
"Why isn't the sky falling?" I deadpanned as the impossible has happened.
"S-shut up," Issei back talked, "I am telling you, it did happen."
"In the real world? And is not your hand?" I asked.
What is this impossible event that happened you tell me? Issei got a girlfriend! Before me! Hell, even before that blonde imitation devil! I really am judging the fate of the universe here. Apparently she fell in love with him at first sight. Now call be a pessimist or whatever, but stuff like that does not happen in the real world, only in works of fiction.
There are only two good reasons for this:
1). This Yuuma is a bit wrong in the head. Or
2). She is using Issei for something involving the supernatural.
Oh yeah, there is something I have not told Issei or my adoptive parents before. I am not completely human. I am, in fact, Half-Human Half-Devil. It is partly the reason why I ran from my birth family. Is that what this Yuuma is here for? To kill me, to take me back? Or is she here for the Sitri or Gremory heirs? Either way, she is a potential threat to my family.
Also, I really do not want Issei to become aware of the supernatural. It is a very dangerous world, one that may kill him.
"You know Issei," I sighed, "go on back home. I just realised that I need to take care of something."
Issei left back home, probably getting ready for his date on the weekend. Even though it is days away. It is good to see him happy, but considering on what is making him happy…
"Ara, ara," said a voice of a certain Onee-sama, "Is it perhaps the Anti-Social Prince worried about something?"
This girl here is one of the two Great Onee-samas known as Akeno Himejima, a Devil that has been reincarnated. Though there is something off about her.
"What is it Himejima-Senpai," I asked the black haired third year.
"I am curious," Himejima-Senpai replied, "Why do you looked scared?"
…Crap. I am really not good at hiding my emotions sometimes. Should I tell her the truth? Or, better yet, I think I can use Gremory and her slave of Imitation Devils to help Issei…
Yes, I will do just that. I should not say out loud that I know the supernatural though.
"It's just that," I replied sheepishly, "Issei-Nii says he has this girlfriend now, but I honestly think she is using him for a prank or something like that." Now she doesn't have a sister (that I know of), but she should see that I am concerned for my brother and understand. Hopefully.
"I understand Vincent-Kun," Himejima-Senpai replied. I didn't ask her to use my first name, nor add the Kun on it.
"Thank you Himejima-Senpai," I bowed, now I have to get Gremory's attention without unveiling my secret.
"Call me Akeno," she giggled. But it is improper. "You will need practice for the future date between Issei and his 'girlfriend'."
Wait when did I tell her about the date and what practice?
ON THE DAY OF THE DATE
"I can't believe you got a date as well Vincent-Nii, and on the same time as me," Issei said excitedly while I grumble about this plan. Really, Himejima- I mean Akeno-Senpai could of really chose a different idea.
"Well," I said, trying to hide my distaste to this plan.
After Issei got a flyer about his wish coming true, Yuuma herself appeared. Not going to lie, this Yuuma is pretty cute, but there is something off with her. She is certainly a supernatural being.
"Who is he?" Yuuma asked, shocked at my appearance.
"This is my Nii-san," Issei said proudly, "Vincent."
"Nii-san? He doesn't look like you."
"I am adopted," I said with a smile.
"But why are you here?" She asked, her eyes glaring at me, but Issei doesn't notice.
"I figured if the world is going to end because Issei-Nii has a date I might as well get one before the end as well," I said with a smile, but also glaring at Yuuma. Issei still hasn't noticed. The glaring I meant, not that small insult I made about him. He certainly noticed that if his 'hey' is any indication.
"Vincent-kun!" a voice belonging to a certain black haired Senpai said before she hugged me from behind. "Nice to see you are ready as well."
"Y-you have Himejima-Senpai as your girlfriend Nii-san?!" Issei asked, unbelieving one of the most popular girl in school is my date.
"S-she i-is not my g-g-g-girlfriend Issei," I stuttered. Why are my cheeks hot?
"Ara, ara," Akeno-Senpai said mischievously, "It is all right darling. You no longer have to rid our relationship to Hyoudou-kun."
You. Are. Not. Helping. And since when was Akeno-Senpai a teaser? And why did she call me by my first name when she first met me and not Issei-Nii?
"You lucky bastard!" Issei screamed at me. Look, I know you have a women trying to use you, but you don't know that. Try and act like the loyal boyfriend to your fake girlfriend!
"Girlfriend," I deadpanned as I pointed at Yuuma.
Issei looked at his fake girlfriend for a second before bowing. "S-sorry Yuuma-chan," Issei apologized.
"It is alright," Yuuma smiled almost convincingly, "Ise-kun."
And so, somehow, Issei and Akeno convinced me and Yuuma to have a double date. Honestly, I was fine just tailing the two, maybe I should have done that.
We went to many places. From the Arcade, to the clothing shops, and to the restaurant. Honestly, if it were not for this Yuuma using my brother, I would have said I enjoyed the day. And Akeno, I have to say, is very good at acting, she honestly looked like she enjoyed the day.
"So Yuuma-san," I asked Issei's girlfriend, "You were not what I expected."
"Oh," Yuuma asked, suspicious, "what were you expecting from me?"
"Well for starters," I said as I held up Issei's hand, "I thought you would look more like this."
"Vincent-Nii," Issei complained, while Akeno giggled and is Yuuma…. Actually trying to hold her laughter?
"Also," well this is going to be painful, "I also expected you to be more, endowed?"
"By the way Yuuma-chan," Akeno-Senpai asked, preventing me from getting killed, "what do you love most about Hyoudou-kun?"
"H-He just," Yuuma stated, "looks so dreamy."
"He looks like your normal perverted teenager if you ask me," I said flatly. I didn't sense anything from him either, so why is this Yuuma interested in him?
"And yet," Issei pointed out, "I got a girlfriend before you."
Correction: Your girlfriend is a liar and potentially a bitch while mine is actually trying to help me save your life.
"Hands don't count," Akeno giggled, "Hyoudou-kun. Your Nii-san and I have been together for a long time now."
What. Is. Wrong. With. You? I would certainly remember being in a relationship.
"Is this true Nii-san?" Issei asked, jealous.
"No," I hastily replied.
The sun was going down, and Yuuma decided that she and Issei will finish their date. This left me and Akeno-Senpai outside the park.
"I think," I told Akeno-Senpai, "Yuuma is going to do something to Issei now."
"You are correct Vincent-kun," Akeno-Senpai replied, "the Fallen Angel is going to kill him."
KILL ISSEI?! I have to save him-
Wait a minute…
"A Fallen Angel," I asked confused, "I don't think creatures from the bible like that exist. Also, Fallen Angel or not, isn't killing Issei a little extreme?"
"We know what you are Vincent-kun," Well fuck, "We know you are born from a human/Devil who who has been adopted by the Hyoudou family." Well, there goes my cover. Wait, I can still salvage this…
"Don't be ridiculous," I lied as I ran towards the fake couple, "there is no such things as Devils."
"You know I am telling the truth," Akeno-Senpai replied as she ran with me. Well, it was worth a shot.
We got to a fountain just in time to see Issei fall over, a very large hole in his stomach, with blood spraying everywhere. Yuuma on the other hand…
"…My brother dated an exhibitionist?" I asked, confused.
Currently, Yuuma is a lot older than she was, taller, her black bird-like wings out to signal that she is a fallen angel. She is also wearing what is best described as an outfit certain girls would wear who are also in S&M.
"Ah," Yuuma, if that is even her real name, said, "looks like you were too late Devils. I killed Issei."
I looked down at the dying body of my adoptive brother. In the end, I was unable to save him.
"Don't blame me, Vincent-kun," Yuuma mocked, "Blame the god that put the Sacred Gear in him in the first place."
That…..
BITCH!
Immediately I fired a demonic ball of energy at the Fallen Angel, who dodged it. Just. I really need to practise my combat skills sometime in the future.
"Oh is that all you got," Yuuma mocked as she flew through the air, before narrowing dodging magical bullets from me and some form of lightning from Akeno-Senpai. That is, until a red glow came from Issei's pocket.
"What the," I mumbled before looking back for the woman who killed Issei, only to find her gone.
"So," a new voice said to my dying brother, "you were the one who called me."
I looked to Issei, to see none other than Rias Gremory, who people claimed to be the most beautiful girl in the school. And no one can blame them.
I stared at the heir to the Gremory as she talked to Issei, before bringing out some chess pieces. Wait, is she…
"Stop," I called to her.
"What is wrong," Gremory-Senpai asked me, "I am saving your brother."
"I know what you are planning," I told her, "And I will not allow it."
"Then you will leave your brother to death?"
"I will not allow him to become your slave!"
"Vincent-kun," Akeno-Senpai said gently, "Please, let Buchou revive Issei. I promise you, Buchou will look after Issei. She will not mistreat him."
I studied Akeno-Senpai for a minute before sighing. I then turned to Gremory-Senpai before threatening, "If you mistreat him in anyway, I will kill you."
"Of course," Gremory-Senpai replied, "By the way, don't tell Issei about him becoming a Devil, leave that to me."
And that is the day that my life changed.
Again….
AN: What?
I purely like this series for the story, I swear! The Ecchi is just an extra on the topping.
I will incorporate items from both the Light Novel and the Anime (as you can see with Raynare).
I also hope I got the Japanese honorifics right. Please tell me what is wrong.
Now, because this is obviously a Highschool DXD story, there will be a harem for our Vincent here. I will accept people based on suggestions. However there are four people who will NOT be a part of Vincent's harem:
Rias: Because of the amount of shit Issei goes through for this women, I should at least give him the benefit of giving him the girl. Don't care if she is the most beautiful girl in all of anime, she will not be going into Vincent's harem.
Asia: I honestly cannot see her outside of Issei's harem. Issei is nice. Vincent, yes he is nice, but not to Issei's level. Usually.
Ravel: Because it will be too complicated to write in the story. I already am not a good writer, me being new and all, but also because Vincent will not fight Raiser (as much as I hate the bastard in the anime).
Irina: Vincent was adopted by the Hyoudou family after Irina left so it will be difficult to include her in as well.
People who ARE going to be in Vincent's harem:
Akeno: We already seen the two on a date this chapter (sort of) and I do plan to make Akeno the head girl. Also, there is a very good reason for them to be together as well.
At least one of the Fallen Angel girls: Although up to you viewer on which girl, one of Fallen Angels will fall in love with Vincent. If Raynare is the choice, keep in mind that she did kill his adoptive brother.
Genderbent characters are okay (blame makoto x chelia), but if a character shows up male here, he will stay male.
Also, for the love of god/Maou, do not give Vincent too many girls. Yes I am picky about Harems, but I do have a good excuse.
And that is it for harems. If there are any others you want to include, recommend in the comments and I will think about it.
Next Time: Issei learns the truth about me!
