"Fuck him, I don't need them anyway. What's good about a home anyway. It's just a way to confine my creativity and growth as a human." I mumbled to myself as I walked down the street.
"Vali, stop moping." I heard a strong voice from nowhere.
"What! Who are you? No, show yourself! Ugh, you know what I mean!" I started shouting frantically.
A man in black robes with ten crow-like wings descended in front of me. "Yo." He started talking to me with a carefree attitude. "Name's Azazel. Guess you aren't doing so well?"
"Well I just got kicked out of my house. Now I'm homeless and to top it all off, I'm hallucinating. I'm going fucking crazy. So no, I'm not doing fucking well!" I started shouting at my hallucination. Good thing no one is around this late at night, or else I'm probably going to get the cops called on me.
"You aren't crazy. I'm totally real. I'm Azazel, the governor-general of the fallen angels. I've taken an interest in you, so why don't you come live with me. It would be chill, free food, a place to sleep, I can also explain what's going on. I know your father very well. Well technically I've never met your father, but I've been watching you guys and I knew your great-grandfather and your grandfather personally. So whaddaya say?"
"No."
"Aww, come on. It will be fun."
"You're being rather creepy. I completely and utterly don't trust you. Nope, I'm out. What is going on, I'm yelling at my hallucination."
"Come on, I can prove it."
"Prove what! That you're real! No, I know you aren't! I'm just tired, so fuck off. Let me find a cozy bush to go and sleep in, if you're here in the morning, I'm crazy. So. FUCK! OFF!" I yelled.
Suddenly with a flash of light; images began to play through my mind, I saw my hallucination fighting with someone who looked like the portrait of my great-grandfather. Azazel looked exactly the same, where my grandfather had ten bat-like wings behind him. They were fighting around a pit of lava, surrounded by red stones. When I regained my senses, my hallucination, Azazel, had a smug grin on his face.
"Believe me now?"
"Not really, but I'm willing to listen. After I sleep."
"Do you trust me enough now to sleep at my place?"
"Not really, but do I have a choice?"
"No. Not really."
There was a big flash of light and just like that my new life began. No longer would I be Vali Lucifer, descendant of the original Lucifer. But Vali Lucifer, An owner of a king piece.
"Ok, later Azazel." I've been living with Azazel for a couple of years now, seeing how at this point I'm in my third year at Kuoh Academy.
Two years ago, the new satans claimed me loyal enough to be considered a high-class devil (due to my lineage) but also worthy of getting the evil pieces that come with that, and my inheritance from my great-grandfather.
I have debated getting my own place, but work has been rather slow for a devil in Kuoh, so I haven't really felt like it would be a good investment as I'd be extremely broke if I got a place, here in Kuoh. My devil money comes in slowly as I did get part of the Lucifer property back, but with paying workers and people not wanting to buy stuff from some no name devil (as I have to use a fake name to not undermine Sirzechs' authority), money is hard to come by.
"See ya later, Vali."Hence, I continue to live here with Azazel. Sometimes, he acts as an authority figure for me, others as my roommate. Still, I owe him my gratitude for taking me in, even after my tirade all those years ago.
I sat down in my seat, at the back of my homeroom. First as usual. Next into the room was Sona also as per usual. When I transferred in, she didn't particularly care that much. Considering me just like any other devil. Unlike Rias, who originally saw me as a threat to devil society, yet she was unable to do anything about me transferring in; as her father and brother were the ones to transfer me here. Speak of the devil princess, she walked in fourth as usual behind some unknown human kid. Rias sat down in her seat, next to Sona. In front of me but next to Sona. Rias and I have bonded a little since then, but she still prefers to give me the cold shoulder.
Seventh into the room was the only human I've reincarnated. Kiyome Abe, the captain of the tennis team. She took all eight of my pawns. I've tried to do the math how she could be need all eight pawns, and all I could come up with his maybe her tamed beasts may gain promotion along with her, so it calculates in her having a wide array of monsters she has tamed; whatever it is, it was well worth it. She walked over to us, sitting in her seat next to me.
I watched as people began to enter to room. Each of them following a simple pattern. Look over at me, quickly hide their eyes, then scurry to their seat. According to rumors Kiyome had heard, I have gotten a reputation for being "the handsome bad boy" of the school. My favorite comparison I've heard is that I'm Kiba's evil counterpart. Another great one was that I blackmailed the girls who nearly constantly surrounded me and that I had nudes of each on my phone. Not that I really care; friends aren't really my style. Sona and Rias are mere acquaintances. And Kiyome is more of just an ally to me.
I may be being too picky though. I do have the smallest peerage of the Kuoh devils. Whatever with my sacred gear, divine dividing, and Kiyome's beasts; we can complete any task the peaceful town of Kuoh has for us.
Finally class started. It was a boring class as usual. The girls surrounding me were frantically writing notes, trying to keep up with the young female teacher's breakneck delivery of the lesson. It was a simple concept that Azazel already taught me, so I kind of just gazed lifelessly at her boring blackboard.
I must have fell asleep, as the next thing I knew, school was over and Kiyome was shaking my arm.
"Vali, get up. School is over."
"What happened? Better question, can I see your notes?" I might as well see if I don't know any of it.
"You fell asleep. You can. Only, if you come watch my tennis game."
"Fine, when is it?"
"Right now, let's go." I finally clued in. She wasn't wearing her normal uniform but instead changed to the gym uniform of Kuoh's tennis team. Pretty much the exact same as the normal one except it had a tennis racket embroidered on the upper left corner of the chest.
I grabbed my bag, and we ran out to the tennis court. I left her at the door of the court, making my way over to the stands where I saw none other than Rias. I sat next to her as everyone else would run away if I sat near them. As soon as I sat down, I heard the whispers begin.
"Hey Rias," I said casually.
"How was your nap, Vali."
"Wonderful, thanks for asking. Would have been nicer if I didn't have to run as soon as I woke up." We just sat in silence, watching the match. Kiyome was doing extremely well, holding Kuoh's entire tennis team on her back. "So, Rias. What are you doing watching the tennis match? Don't you have ORC stuff to do?" I asked, trying to break the silence.
"I have everyone keeping an eye on someone for me." She responded as coldly as ever.
"Mysterious as ever. You really are a chip off the old block, huh."
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"Your brother. You two are so similar. And I mean more than just the hair."
"Is that supposed to be a compliment."
"Yeah,it is. I respect your brother. Without him, I'd just be trailing through life, not truly human, not truly devil." She jumped onto me then, effectively shushing me.
"Are you stupid? Don't bring that up here." She hissed at me through closed teeth.
"Can you get off of me. You're going to start even more problems for my already non-existent social life." I joked. And just like that, I saw Rias smile at me. And we sat the rest of the tennis match in silence.
After the match, in which Kuoh won, Kiyome and I began to walk home. We didn't live too far from each other yet didn't walk to school together due to our differences in punctuality. As we walked home, a man approached us. He was a tall gentleman with a fedora, I recognized him as the fallen angel, Dohnaseek.
"Hey Dohnaseek. What are you doing here in Kuoh?" I asked, knowing him from my time meeting Grigori members with Azazel.
"Just a little business." He responded nonchalantly. He seemed up to something.
"Run home. If I'm not at school tomorrow, don't worry." I whispered to Kiyomi. She nodded, knowing that's the signal that I'm about to do something rash. And she booked it, hopefully home.
"So, Vali. How has life been treating you?" He tried to make small talk. He was stalling for something.
"Shut it Don. What do you want."
"My new leader wants the church up there." He actually answered me. Or at least I hope he answered me.
"So what do you mean by new leader." The fact was stressed as he said this to whom he knew was living with Azazel.
"You don't need to know. You won't be around long enough." As he finished his sentence, a burning sensation went through my stomach. Another fallen angel joined him. Raynare! The fallen angel that went AWOL a few years ago. This can't be fucking good.
"Ugh, sorry it took me so long, Don. That fucking kid walks way too slow. And then when I asked him, he just stared at me like I already showed my true form. Stupid human." My vision was beginning to get hazy as they talked. My hearing going very quickly. When all of a sudden I blacked out.
A/N: So, welcome to my new story. I probably won't be working on this one nearly as much as my other. It kind of just came to me so I wanted to get it out before I forgot it. I'm not actually sure what to write in these things. I kind of just ramble on. Review at your leisure. Love to know what everyone thinks. ;p
