Issei's different path
(" " speech/portal talk)
I don't own Highschool DXD it belongs to Ichiei Ishibumi
"You're heading for a fall Kokabiel." Said Issei as he flew towards Kokabiel
"How exactly?" asked Kokabiel preparing for Issei's attack
"Cause I'm going to punch you in the fucking balls!" said Issei as he right hand made contact with Kokabiel's dick, everyone could hear a crushing sound as Issei's hand connected with Kokabiel's dick
"Usually, I would never hit below the belt." Said Issei as he pulled back his blood covered hand "But… I'll make an exception for a bastard like you!" as he flipped a few feet back letting lose a breath of Fire hitting Kokabiel's body cauterizing where Kokabiel's dick was a few moments before, he wasn't going to let him bleed out Azazel asked for him alive
Rias gathered as much of her power as she could, she launched it as fast as she could at Kokabiel. It took the form of a black Eastern Dragon, it had a crimson red and light green outer lining. It hit Kokabiel like a small truck, he tried to use his wings to shield himself but his wings and feathers started being destroyed.
"Thunder!" screamed Akeno as she raised her hands above her head, a very strong lightning bolt came down and made contact with her right index finger. With a small grunt, Akeno sent the lightning at Kokabiel.
Kokabiel saw Akeno's attack coming, he managed to close what was left of his wing protecting himself.
"Are you trying to kill me? Baraqiel's daughter." Asked Kokabiel from inside his wings
"Don't lump me in with that thing!" screamed Akeno angry as her lightning attack grew in power
"One of the fallen angel leaders?" said Xenovia shocked "I've heard that he can use lightning and thunder, but…"
"So… Akeno is Baraqiel's daughter?" asked Issei as Ddraig had already told him that Akeno was half fallen, but that was it
Akeno's attacked stopped, she was out of magic. She was breathing heavily, as Kokabiel laughed evilly as he unfolded his wings.
"You've fallen so low to become a devil now?" asked Kokabiel mockingly "What an amusing House you have, Rias Gremory."
"A weird Red Dragon Emperor…" said Kokabiel as he looked towards Issei "A ruined Holy Sword Project subject…" as he looked to Kiba "And Baraqiel's daughter!" as he looked to Akeno "Rias Gremory, like your brother, you seem to like inferior products." Laughed Kokabiel mockingly
"Don't you dare talk about my friends like that!" screamed Issei angrily getting a shocked look form Akeno
"Why does he say that? He hate's fallen angles." Akeno asked to herself
"Your insults to my family deserves death!" screamed Rias angrily not being able to take what Kokabiel said
Kokabiel landed on the ground creating a huge dust cloud, the cloud only lasted a few seconds. "Then try and destroy me, little sister of the Devil King, possessor of the Welsh Dragon!" Kokabiel screamed as he retracted his wings "You're confronting the archenemy of devils, you know. If you don't take advantage of this chance, then this is as good as you'll get!" continued Kokabiel trying to bait everyone into attacking him thinking he could win, but his huge ego was getting the better of him
"Hey, you fallen crow!" screamed Issei with a look that could kill
"Issei." Said Rias in shock
"I will not allow you to insult Rias, Akeno and the rest of my friends!" Issei continued as he charged at Kokabiel
"You brat! Are you… ah!" asked Kokabiel as Issei appeared right in front of him
Issei punched him hard in the stomach making him double over, Issei then forced Kokabiel to the ground. He grabbed Kokabiel's right arm, the tearing of flesh, the breaking of bones could be heard as Issei slowly ripped Kokabiel's right arm off. Kokabiel screamed in pain, it sent shivers down everyone spines. All had either read or heard stories about what happened when you truly pissed off a dragon, the dragon would kill the person by any means necessary.
As Issei threw Kokabiel's severed right arm to the side, Kokabiel manged to flip up and kick Issei stomach. Issei flew back a good 10 meters into what was left of the school, Xenovia charged in jumping to slice Kokabiel. Kokabiel saw Xenovia charging at him, Kokabiel formed a light sword to block Durandal with ease.
"You humans are sure fighting hard for people who've lost their master." Laughed Kokabiel evilly
"What?" asked Xenovia wondering what Kokabiel meant
"What are you talking about?" asked Rias
"Kokabiel, what do you mean by "Lost their master"?" Asked Xenovia demanding to know what Kokabiel meant
"Oh my, I let it slip." Said Kokabiel with a smile
"Answer me, Kokabiel!" screamed Xenovia
Kokabiel started laughing uncontrollably "That's right, since I'm trying to start a war, there's no point in hiding it any longer." He paused for a few seconds before turning to everyone "In the previous three-way war, my former father died along with the four Great Devil Kings!"
"T-That can't be true." Said Xenovia falling onto her knees as everyone went silent
"God… is dead?" asked Rias shocked "That's ridiculous, I haven't heard anything about that!" said Rias trying to deny what Kokabiel said as Issei reappeared at Asia's side
"During the war, the devils lost all their kings and most of their high-level devils, and the angles and fallen lost almost everyone except their leaders. The pure angels couldn't increase their numbers, and purebred devils are rare." Explained Kokabiel with a happy
"That… That can't be true!" said Asia in pure shock
"All side have been ruined to the point where they have to rely on humans to survive. Angels, fallen angels, devils. The leaders of the three factions had to seal away this information, so that the God-fearing humans would continue on." Said Kokabiel continuing
"Lies… All lies…" said Xenovia trying to deny what Kokabiel said
"Not like I care about any of that." Said Kokabiel boringly "What I can't take is the fact that with God and the devil kings dead, it was decided that continuing the war was pointless! I can't take it! I can't take it!" he screamed in anger "You want me to calm down after raising my fist? If we'd continued fighting, we would've won!" he screamed pissed "Even that bastard Azazel declared that there wouldn't be another war! What the Fuck!"
"God doesn't exist anymore? Then what about the love that is given to us…?" asked Asia panicking
"Michael is doing a good job, you know. He's keeping the angles and humans together in father's place." Said Kokabiel not caring
"The Archangel Michael is acting as God's agent?" asked Xenovia "Then… we've…"
"As long as the system works, prayers and exorcisms will operate to a certain extent." Said Kokabiel as Asia fainted
Issei manged to catch Asia before she hit the ground, he gently laid her down next to Koneko.
"That's a natural reaction, I'm surprised that I can still think at a time like this." Said Xenovia barely being able to keep herself together
"However, the number of believers in father has fallen drastically. Without anyone to manage the balance between good and evil, it's no wonder that something contradictory like the holy devil sword would appear. Otherwise it would be unthinkable for good and evil to mix like that." Explained Kokabiel "I'll continue the war, even if I have to do it myself by taking your heads!"
"You know… Azazel said he wanted you taken alive…" said Issei in a dark voice as he started walking up to Kokabiel
"Oh? You don't seem shocked, I guess Ddraig told you." Kokabiel said shocked by Issei not reacting to him saying God was dead
"No, I joked about it when I would give heaven a visit." said Issei
"But… he didn't say you had to be in one piece." Said Issei darkly as he charged at Kokabiel again
Issei tried to punch Kokabiel again, but he took to the air deploying what was left of his wings. He smirked as he was about to prepare a light spear to run Issei through with, but Issei was quicker. Issei dashed round him and grabbed Kokabiel's top two pairs of wings and ripped then right off. Kokabiel screamed in pain, Issei then grabbed Kokabiel's middle pair of wing.
"A rat like you doesn't need wings." Said Issei darkly as he ripped the middle pair of Kokabiel's wings off
Everyone watched in horror, at what Issei was doing to Kokabiel. Wings, tails, ears, etc, were very sensitive for supernatural species. And having them ripped off was one of the worst things anyone could happen to them, it sent a shiver down their spines.
"And, now… the final four." Said Issei darkly as he grabbed them slowly ripped off Kokabiel's last wings
Issei was about to grab Kokabiel's arms to pull them off, when everyone heard a feminine laugh. It had a seductive undertone, it was similar to Rias when she seduced Issei a few nights ago, it had a devil's undertone to it. This concerned Issei, Sirzech wasn't here yet. So, whoever the woman was, they didn't know.
"Is he really that interesting?" echoed the female voice as the barrier around the school broke into thousands of pieces
A blue light floated down from the top of the barrier, Sona and her peerage had to shield themselves from the flying pieces of the barrier.
"What's that light?!" asked a female member of Sona's peerage as the blue light floated down lower
"I'm actually surprised the barrier lasted this long, but still… it would still be slightly hard form me to break it." Said Issei as he studied the floating woman, everyone was looking around concerned
"That power… it's the white one." Said Ddraig with middle shock
"The white one hugh?" asked Issei surprised "At last, they finally reveal themselves." As he was eager to meet the white one
The blue ball of light broke revealing a white armour similar to Issei's balance breaker, but instead of green jewels they were a light blue. The armour was tight on her body, she had a body similar to Rias's.
"You've made my job a lot easier, Red Dragon." Said the female as she floated down to the ground
"I guess that Azazel sent you?" asked Issei as he changed back into a full human form, he was in his causal clothes he could tell that the White One didn't come here to fight, he could feel that
Issei got a nod form the White One as her armour disappeared, she had silver hair and was wearing jet black jeans, a blue t shirt and a black bicker jacket with a proud white dragon on the back.
"Vali." Said Vali introducing herself as Issei checked her out, she smirked playfully
"Issei." Said Issei introducing himself to his rival "Well, at least my rival is good-looking." As he gave Vali a smirk
"You're not so bad yourself Issei." Said Vali as she walked swaying her hips seductively
"Are they?" asked Xenovia confused by the scene as she'd heard that when ever the Red and White Dragon's met they fought but Issei and Vali? They were checking each other out, when they were surpassed to hate each other
"Yes… Yes, they are." Sighed Rias into her hand. Though, she had to admit, Vali was a beauty "I think after Issei got me and Asia to have some fun, I've become bisexual." She thought to herself, thinking back to the times they had threesomes or when Asia awoke with her head buried in her chest
"Issei's perversion knows no bounds." Said Koneko as she felt something pull at her heart at the fact of Issei cheeking out another girl
"Here, take him before I change my mind and do the world a favour and kill him." Said Issei as he grabbed Kokabiel's collar and threw him at Vali's feet
"I'll be seeing you soon… very soon." Said Vali as she quickly walked up to Issei and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, she turned on her heals and went and picked up Kokabiel as she left in a blue magic circle
Seconds after Vali left with Kokabiel, a massive golden magic circle appeared from the ground and floated up into the air disappearing.
(With Sona and her peerage on the way to join Rias and the others)
"The ways from the magic square disappearing!" said Tsubaki as herself and the rest of Sona's watched as the Golden magic circle disappeared
"Does that mean Rias and the others… won?" Sona asked wide eyed "But then what was that light from before…?"
Sona and here peerage walked to see Vali leaving, they all saw her white and blue wings.
"Rias." Said Sona as they appeared behind the Gremory Group plus Xenovia
"Sona." Said Rias in a mild shocked voice
"Who was that woman?" asked Sona wondering who she was
"Vali, the White Dragon Empress." Said Issei with a smirk "Azazel sent her to pick Kokabiel up."
"Well then, Tsubaki, we need to repair the damage to the school." Said Sona as she turned to her friend "We should be able to manage before school starts."
"Is it over?" asked Kiba still holding onto his knew sword, the adrenaline was still flowing through his veins "No, there are still people who took over that man's research. My fight is not yet over." He continued sadly
"You did it Prince Charming!" said Issei congratulating Kiba as he walked to him
"Issei." Said Kiba slightly shocked
"A Holy Devil sword? I'm a little jealous." Said Issei as he looked at Kiba's new sword
"Issei, I want to apologise." Started Kiba knowing he'd betrayed Issei friendship to him
"If you want to apologise too someone, then apologise to Rias." Said Issei as he wasn't really hurt by what Kiba did but he could tell Rias was
"Rias…" said Kiba sheepishly as he looked over to Rias
"Yuuto, I'm glad you came back, and for you to achieve your Balance Breaker… As your master, I'm very proud." Said Rias happily
Kiba bent down in front of Rias, holding his sword behind him. "President, I betrayed the club members, and above all, I betrayed you, who once saved my life. There's no way I can make up for that." Said Kiba sadly
"But you came back, must that's enough." Said Rias happily "You can't let everyone's feelings go to waste." As everyone bare Xenovia surrounded him
"President, I vow again… I, Kiba Yuuto to protect you and your companions as a knight of the House of Gremory for the rest of my life." Kiba vowed to Rias again like he did all those years ago
Rias walked up to Kiba and bent down and hugged Kiba "Thank you, Yuuto." Said Rias happily "Now then, Yuuto…"
"Yes?" asked Kiba wondering what Rias was saying
Issei smirked as he saw Rias form a magic circle in her right hand "This is your punishment for moving on your own… One thousand spankings." Rias said with a smile
"What?!" asked Kiba shocked
"Hahaha! This is great! Good luck taking it, pretty boy!" laughed Issei
"Issei…" said Kiba scared as Rias got ready to spank him
(Early morning)
"It seems an angel is here." Said Issei to Ddraig as he felt something of pure light as he untangled himself from Rias and Asia's grasp
"It's Michael, I'd recognise that light anywhere." Said Ddraig as the small green light appeared on Issei's right hand
"Well then, I'm going to meet him." Said Issei as he quickly left a note for Rias and Asia
(The playground where Irina and Issei played together at when they were kids)
"The Archangel Michael, it's an honour." greeted Issei as he landed in front of Michael
"It seems you already know who I am, Red Dragon Emperor." Greeted Michael with a smile
"Please, call me Issei." Said Issei with a smile he was never big on formality's "But why are you're here?"
"I came to get Irina personally, I don't want her to return to the Vatican." Said Michael
"Why is that?" asked Issei though he already had a good idea why
"The Vatican hasn't been doing what we've asked for over 200 hundred years, we can't allow them to have the Excalibur parts." Said Michael sadly
"I was right." Said Issei with a smirk
"What?" asked Michael confused
"Anyone can look at what the Vatican has done and see that they didn't do the will of God, their more similar to a God damn Cult." Said Issei as he realised what he said at the end "No offence."
"None taken, father become corrupted with power." Said Michael as he thought Issei would be shocked but he wasn't "You're not shocked?"
"Power can corrupt anyone Michael, even Gods." Said Issei giving a great point
"Fair enough." Agreed Michael
"I'll go and get Irina, I want to talk to her anyways, but I want a few favours in return." Said Issei a he turned ready to take off to the airport "What about the other priests?"
"They can't be allowed to leave." Said Michael earning a shocked look from Issei "They know to much and are too dangerous."
"So… the Archangel Michael himself just told me to kill some priests?" asked Issei laughing at the fact an angel just told him to go kill some people "I'm confused, is this a sin or not?"
"You know, I don't now either." Laughed Michael agreeing with Issei as he took off
(Airport)
At the airport, Irina and Xenovia were standing in a small opening. Irina looked as if she was going to cry.
"All the cores of the four destroyed Excalibur's were also retrieved. Using alchemy, they should be able to be re-forged into holy swords." Explained Xenovia to her friend as if she was about to cry "Irina, you accomplished your mission."
"It's unfortunate that it's not "We." Said Irina sadly
"I feel that way, too." Said Xenovia sadly as she did want to return with her friend
"Why?! Why did you have to be reborn as a devil?" asked Irina angrily "I can't believe the church just accepted it, either!" as she turned away to leave and catch her flight
"Irina!" yelled Issei as he ran up to Irina and Xenovia
"Issei?" asked Irina shocked
"Irina, go to the park were we always played together as kids." Said Issei getting a shocked look from Irina
"Why?" asked Irina wondering why Issei told her to go there
"The Archangel Michael is there waiting for you." Said Issei as both Irina and Xenovia's eyes went wide
"The Archangel Michael?" asked both Irina and Xenovia speechless
"Yes, Xenovia go with her." Said Issei as he walked past them "He's asked me to grab the Excalibur parts."
"How can I believe you?" asked Irina shocked that the Archangel Michael himself was here
"Have I every lied to you Irina?" asked Issei turning his head round to Irina
"No." said Irina "But what about the other priests doesn't Michael want to see them as well?"
"The one question I didn't want you to ask." Sighed Issei "Michael will explain everything just go." Irina trusted Issei so she turned to leave with Xenovia after a few seconds.
Issei smiled and continued walking to the door to the outside, he got stopped by security. They instantly pulled out their guns, Issei could tell they were light guns. Issei sensed that every guard in the area had them, they were all with the church. So Issei did the only thing to cover his tracks, forming a black balaclava and a black hoodie he attacked and killed everyone that had a church weapon. He quickly dispatched them, by this time mass panic occurred in the airport. So, after Issei grabbed the Excalibur pieces, he went to security and removed all security footage of what happened. He then took off to meet Michael, Irina and Xenovia.
As Issei was about to land, he saw Michael, Irina and Xenovia chatting happily. Rias and Asia was there as well, Asia seemed very happy. She was heartbroken when she heard about God's death, she cried herself to sleep in Issei and Rias's arms last night.
"Issei, I asked you to get the Excalibur pieces, not cause a panic." Said Michael disappointed as Issei landed dropping the Excalibur pieces at Michael's feet
"Every single security guard there had light weapons, so I had to cover my tracks." Said Issei as he placed his hand round Rias's waist and kissed her
"Hugh… Well, was anyone else hurt?" sighed Michael as he could feel and see the jealousy form Irina
"I personally didn't, but I can't say anything for anyone else that was running out of the airport." Said Issei holding up his other hand acting innocent "So, what have I missed?"
"We've just been talking for a bit." Said Rias has she slapped the back of Issei's head
"What was that for?" asked Issei grunting slightly as he rubbed the back of his head
"For not waking up by my side." Pouted Rias cutely
"I'll make it up to you." Said Issei as he smirked kissing Rias quickly
"We best be off, thank you Issei you've done us a great favour." Thanked Michael as a female angel appeared, she quickly gathered the Excalibur pieces and left
"Irina, you're welcome at my place anytime." Said Issei smiling as he turned to see Irina in a slightly better mood
"Thanks, Issei." Said Irina happily as she walked up to him and hugged Issei
"We'll be seeing you lot soon." Said Michael smiling happily as a bright yellow light appeared, the yellow light disappeared after a few seconds leaving Issei, Rias, Asia and Xenovia standing in the park
"Well then, let's grab something to eat and head to the academy." Said Rias as he grabbed Issei arm again as Asia grabbed his other arm
The group of four left to get something to eat, they went to the café were Issei and Rias ate after Issei's transformation.
"Hey Red Dragon Emperor." Said Xenovia as she came into the 0.R.C
Rias was sitting at her desk with a cup of Akeno's fresh tea at her right, Akeno was standing at Rias's left with a tray of tea on the desk in front of her. Kiba was standing at the front right of Rias's desk, a fresh cup of teat was in his hands. Asia was sitting on one of the sofas with a cup of fresh tea on the small table in front of her, Issei was next to her with Koneko sitting in his lap. Both Koneko and Issei were eating donuts, Koneko had her ears and tail out, he single white tail was swaying happily as she ate her donut.
"Xenovia, I have a name besides that you know." Sighed Issei annoyed
"I must say, we were surprised after being told about it." Said Kiba getting a small nod form Koneko as well
"After learning about God's death, I was desperate and begged Rias." Explained Xenovia
"It'll be nice to have the Durandal user added to our ranks." Said Akeno happily as she laughed "With this, you and Kiba will be the swordfighters covering our right and left flanks."
Xenovia was about to ask Issei something when a golden magic circle opened up by his ear.
"Alright thanks Michael, see you at the peace meeting then." Said Issei thanking Michael who was the one calling him
"Irina has made it safely to heaven, we'll be seeing her in the next peace meeting." Said Issei as the golden magic circle disappeared
"Peace meeting?" asked Asia wondering what Issei meant
"With what happened last night, one is going to be called and since we were there, we'll have to go." Said Rias happy for Irina getting to heaven safely as she did like Irina but groaning at the thought of dealing with politics "Well then, let me welcome you officially to the family Xenovia." Rias said happily as Akeno brought out a cake form one of the side rooms
Everyone enjoyed the cake for the rest of launch, Issei thought for a bit. He didn't get a cake when he joined Asia did, but in the end, he got something way better.
Later during the day, when everyone was walking out of the old school building. They caught Matsuda and Motohama ruining away from the Kendo club, Issei walked up to them and grabbed them throwing then at Murayama's and Katase's feet. They thanked Issei as the rest of the Kendo club started beating up Matsuda and Motohama, their screams of pain/hatred for Issei could be heard as everyone walked off. Later after school, Rias, Akeno, Asia, Koneko and Xenovia all went out to get swim wear. This left Issei and Kiba to cover on contracts for them, luckily it was just new people for the night.
