And here I am in the Dark Souls' fandom. Maybe this idea was already used, But I always wanted to make a Dark Souls Highschool AU. Please, don't blame me for my pseudo-writer urges, and forgive if this idea is unoriginal. I'd also like to say that english is not my first language, and if any gramatic error is unbearable, please PM me and I'll correct it as soon as possible. With that being said, I hope you all enjoy this little fic based in my unlucky journey in that game. Stay golden, everyone.
oh, and dark souls dont belong to me. Thank you.

And here I am, Lordran Highschool. I can't believe that after that insane place called Asylum Middle-School, my life would have some light in it. Too bad my senior Oscar couldn't make it here. Stupid two ponts. TWO. EFFING. POINTS!
Oscar was the best senpai you could ask for. He helped me out with the homework, shared some Soul-candy with me. He even gave me the key to the roof back in that nightmare I called Middle School. Too bad indeed, But he didn't had any hard feelings, and gave me his precious lucky charm, his Estus Flask. A pretty little necklace with this jewel with orange light. Don't worry senpai. Your will will carry on with me...
Oh, sorry. I didn't introduce myself. My name is Kurokiba Mukuro. Kinda morbid, isn't it? Well, when you have the Darksign Disease, pale skin and a weird mark in your chest is something you've to get used to. I'm not the only one, but those idiots think I'm different for some reason... Well, not wasting my time with them. But I guess this whole "different" thing will bite me someday... somehow...
So, after the entrance cerimony with ms. Busty Student council president, Gwynevere, she dismissed all of us so that the new students, "undead" to some seniors, have some time to know the school and "each other". I should go to the infirmary to check myself up, after all, this DD can mess with me if I don't take my Humanity medication from time to time. Since my student ID have this little warning, I should be fine.
Except for the fact I have no ideia where it is. I should ask for some directions. Maybe that guy with messy black hair can help me? He is tall, skinny, and for some reason was looking at his hands and twitching a little. Another weirdo? But he must be a senior, so I really don't have much of a choice.
"Err... Excuse me?"
"Crah!" Holy crap! What the hell?! Did he just... Crow at me? What was that about? What was he? Some kind of chicken? After that freaky accident, he turned around to face me. Wow, he should really sleep more. Look how deep those eyes are. "Oh... Sorry if I scared ya. But never talk to me from the back. That's freaks me out!"
"Okay..." He's the one to talk. "Hey... Could you give me some directions? I can't find my way to the infirmary."
"Oh... Are you an undead?" I shaked my Head in a yes, and he smiled. Now, that's one senpai I was happy to meet. With no hesitation, he guided me though the school. Some floors and stairs later, there I was: The infirmary. At least was what the sign above the Door was saying. "Here we are. I hope you enjoyed the tour. Thanks for choosing Raven Airlines."
I chuckle, he laugh as well, what a funny senpai. But before I could ask his name, he runned away. Huh... Maybe he is some kind of Tour Guide. After all, Lordran is a giant place, and I couldn't be the only one lost here. His duty or not, I should buy him some snacks one of these days to thank him.
"My, Oh my. If is not an undead I see." I heard next to the Door to the infirmary. I turned myself to the way I heard that voice, and saw this... Senior? This guy with short black hair, skin pale as mine, and with those strange, bored eyes, that said he probably didn't have anything better to do, sitting in one of those "waiting seats". He chuckle, and to be polite, I chuckle as well. "Welcome to Lodran Highschool. Want a piece of advice? Just don't mess with anyone, and your life in here will be easy, easy..."
"E-Excuse me...?" Now, what kind of "advice" was that? 'Don't mess with anyone'? What does he mean by that? Apparentely, my confusion was too obvious, as he sighed, and continued...
"Look, kiddo, just take this advice from your senior. This school may have a great reputation and stuff, but is still a school. Delinquents and gangs are everywhere, and one word, one move, even one wrong stare, they will skin you alive. Even that hot student council president have two abominations as bodyguards. And believe me, they will do much worse. Like I said, just stay cool, and your school life will be smooth and safe."
"Okay... Thank you, Err..."
"Naito... Call me Crestfallen Naito."
"Okay... Naito-senpai. Thank you for the advice. I must go Now."
"Very well. Go do your stuff. If you need anything or more advices, I'll be here. I'm always here, anyway. Good luck, you will need it. Heheheheh..."
Geez... That senpai freaks me out. But, somehow, I can't blame him. He must've seen some insane stuff, or maybe just some bad experiences with those said delinquents. If I remembered correctely, there was indeed two strange students beside Gwynevere-kaichou in the entrance Cerimony. The blonde with red ponytail and fierce eyes, and the bald guy whose jacket makes him look overweight. Mental note: avoid those two. What were their names Again? Onrstein and Smough? I can't remember very well...
Better snap back to the infirmary. I bowed to Naito-senpai and knock the Door in front of me a few times. Nothing. Knock knock Again. Nothing nothing Again. Well, that was some school nurse. I know is kinda morbid, but I would be dead by Now...
Soon, I was tired of waiting, so I slided that door open and knock a few times to warn... Someone, about my presence. The infirmary was your regular type of infirmary: some beds, a curtain to separate them, a closet for some medicine, a table and a rolling chair. Yep, standard as hell. However, there was this little item that separate this infirmary from the others: this tiny, cute, blonde girl I found in one bed. She was probably about my age, so she must be a freshman As well. She was trembling a little... Maybe in fear...
...
Crap! I scared a cute lady! This is so uncool!
"H-Hey...! Don't be afraid! I won't hurt you! I just need to see the nurse!" Now I'm talking like one of those stupid new preschool teachers that have no idea what to do with a crying child. This is even more uncool... Or less cool... Who cares?!
Fortunetely, she seemed to calm down a little. I'd said, I'm not the most frighting guy either. But I did notice that she seems to be that kind of shy girl that doesn't talk much.
"Oh, what do we have here? An undead?" Hearing that voice behind my back, I turned around and saw this guy. A blond guy with one of those coconut haircuts and a pointy nose. He was wearing a labcoat over his School uniform, our school uniform. Was he a student? "Pleased to meet you. My name is Saitou Petrus, and I'm nurse Rhea's assistant. Can I help you?"
"Well, yes... I'm Kurokiba Mukuro, and I have this prescription saying I must take some medicines here." I handed to him a piece of paper with some of the stuff I needed. He took it and started reading it. After that, he sighed and went sitting in the rolling chair, looking at some bottles in his table. It didn't last long, and he passed some of them.
"Here you go. Darksign, isn't it? Tough stuff, But some right medication and you should be fine." He said as I drunk some water to gulp down those black pills. For an assistant, he do know what he was doing. Petrus then waved to the cute girl in the bed. "I bet you already met our little angel here. Her name is Hoonoji Anastasia. She's an assistant as well, despite being a freshman."
"Oh, really?"
"Yeah. Shortening the story and sparing her of some... Unpleasant memories, little Annie is working here as a part-timer for money to a throat surgery. She can't do much, but please bear with it."
Wow. So that's why she didn't talk to me. She can't. Throat surgery, eh? Must be tough, tougher than being an "undead" with DD.
"Mister Eeyore outside is also a part-timer. Don't mind him, he also have some bad memories, like that time with the President's golden boys or when he almost drowned because of some stupid prank with the Ghost Gang..."
"Huh..." I was right. Naito-senpai did have an awful first year. Was he warning me? Well, that's not gonna happen to me!
... I hope...
"But I guess this is what happens when you try to be another Slayer..."
"Another What now?"
"Oh, you never heard about the... Slayer of demons? The delinquent with noble heart that saved Boletaria High with his own fists?"
"..."
"Very well. If you have some time to spare, I can tell you the story of the Slayer of demons. Everything started with a school not far from here called Boletaria High and the Mist Gang..."

thank you for reading, I hope you all enjoyed. Probably there is some other fic with that same idea, But I hoPe that this won't be a problem. I just wanna write a fic and have some fun. But if this fanfic is not as good or is to much unoriginal, I'll understand. aside those unfortunate implications, I hoped you all liked the story. StaY golden, my friends.
oh, and some explanations for the names:
- Kurokiba Mukuro: "kurokiba" means "black fang", my favorite class in the game, and "Mukuro" can mean "corpse".
- crestfallen Naito: "Naito" can be a real japanese surname, and a way to say "Knight". Its kinda of a play on words.
- hoonoji Anastasia: "Hoonoji" can mean "flaming bird", like in phoenix. First, because of her duty as a firekeeper, and second because... You know, that incident with Lautrec.
- "-kaichou": It means "faculty leader", or "president" in the case;
- "-senpai": senior.
- Oh, and snuggly will also have a japanese name. I hope you all understand. Thank you for reading Again.
