Hey guys next chapter and thanks for some of the amazing ideas for the different character arcs But right now here's the next chapter I'm sure a lot of you are eager to see.

Abandoned church

Just a few short minutes ago Kuru and his peerage had arrived at the request of Rias to save a certain nun that her [Pawn] Issei had become quite involved with. Naturally Kuru had accepted not only cause she was his friend but even he knew that Issei was nowhere near ready for this level of combat.

So in an effort to make sure the mission was a true success Kuru had divided his peerage and sent them to different area's around and in the church to make sure none of them were caught off guard. Now though he and every member of his peerage are engaged with Fallen angel forces and ready to give their all to complete their mission.

Jynx vs. Stray Exorcist

"Wow you guys are pretty mediocre when it comes to fighting aren't ya?" mocked Jynx as she crushed another stray exorcist beneath her hammer.

There were a total of thirty of them all gunning for her but even with their superior numbers they still were barely able to even land a scratch on her. Mostly due to the fact she had a large hammer that none of them were really willing to get in range of however Jynx was getting really annoyed having to avoid the holy bullets being shot at her constantly.

So she decided to make use of her status as Kuru's [Pawn] by using her Promotion ability. She instantly changed her class from [Pawn] to [Knight] and disappeared from the exorcists sight with her newly acquired speed. She then reappeared in the middle of the largest group of them consisting of about six exorcists with her hammer already in mid swing.

"Gotcha!~" sang Jynx as she brought her hammer in a side swing.

Her hammer slammed into the first exorcists side instantly turning his bones to dust but it didn't stop there as Jynx continued to follow through with her swing all the while dragging the body of the first exorcist along for the ride.

One by one each exorcist in the group became apart of the growing number taking a ride on her hammer until she had made a full circle with all six of the exorcists bodies on her hammer. Then with on final push she sent the six bodies flying with which they managed to crush two more exorcists with both their weight and the force behind them. All of this in a mere three seconds.

The exorcists were stunned for a moment at seeing their comrades so brutally killed but quickly regained their bearings as they yelled out in rage.

"Kill that devil bitch!" screamed one of them as the all started firing at her only for her new [Knight] speed to allow her to easily dodge the incoming projectiles.

Jynx continued to dodge for another few seconds before getting bored.

"Go get'em Pit!" she yelled out as she flung her hammer at the remaining exorcists.

This confused the exorcists somewhat as they found the move to be really stupid as she just tossed her only weapon at them. That confusion quickly left when the hammer in mid air changed from, well a hammer into a large flaming blue lion about the size of a horse.

The exorcists didn't even have time to scream before Pit tore into them with unwavering ferocity. He cut and bit down anyone in his way while his flames burned anyone too close to him. All the while Jynx cheered on from the sidelines all the way up until the last exorcist was cut down by Pit's claws.

When all of the exorcists had been killed the large lion ran up to Jynx and quickly turned into a cute flaming cub before leaping into her arms. Jynx snuggled the creature lovingly while telling him how proud she was. After a few moments of this she quickly ran towards Tank who was just starting to really get into it with Raynare.

Ryujin vs. Freed

"Dance you shitty devil dance! Hahahaha!" maniacally yelled Freed as he continued to fire rounds at Ryujin who was using a pew as a shield.

Freed had learned early on that going close quarters with Ryujin was a very bad idea. Evidenced by the fact the entire left side of the crazed exorcists face was now swollen courtesy of a right hook from the devil. From there Freed had quickly gained some distance and seemed quite content with shooting at Ryujin from afar all the while yelling out vulgar things that was quickly getting on his nerves.

After another derogatory remark about Ryujin and his mother the Cerbures [Rook] had had enough. Using the pew he held Ryujin tossed it at Freed making the stray exorcist roll away to avoid becoming crushed under the flying projectile. Right as Freed rolled Ryujin rushed him with speeds that contradicted his size thanks to fighting fast enemies like Hayate which had really improved his own speed.

Freed had no time to react as Ryujin drove his foot into his chest and sent him hurtling across the church and into the opposite wall. The faint glow around Ryujin signified his Sacred Gear's activation but Ryujin was sure he wouldn't need it. For all of Freed's skills he was only human and couldn't hope to match someone like Ryujin.

"You shitty devil! I'm gonna enjoy cutting you to pieces!" cried out Freed as he shakenly stood with blood dribbling from his lips and favoring his left side.

"You have a very vulgar mouth exorcist. Someone should really shut it up, and by someone I mean me!" retorted Ryujin as he rushed Freed once more.

Said exorcist tried desperately to defend himself by firing frantically at the charging devil but was having a hard time due to his wounds throwing off his aim and the few shots that did hit Ryujin were barely grazes. When Ryujin was only a few feet away from him Freed tossed his gun aside and instead brought up his light sword and brought it down just as Ryujin reached him.

The blade cut into the [Rooks] shoulder however Ryujin just kept charging and shoulder tackled the crazed exorcist right through the wall of the church making Freed cough up a bunch of blood as well as releasing his sword.

Now Ryujin stood over Freed's bleeding form looking down at the unconscious exorcist coldly with the blade of light still in his shoulder. Reaching up and grasping the handle Ryujin yanked the blade out with a small grunt of pain and crushed the weapon in his hand.

Shaking his head and ignoring his slight wound Ryujin turned and made his way back inside the church leaving Freed's form where it was and not bothering to check if he was truly dead.

Tank vs. Raynare

When Tank had charged at the Fallen angel that was the source of his anger he stopped almost immediately in confusion as the nun on the crossed cried out in pain before going limp. What happened next made the blood in Tank's veins freeze as two rings floated from Aisia and into Raynare's hands who had a look of absolute glee on her face.

Placing the rings on her hands her twisted smile grew even larger if it was even possible.

"Finally! With Twilight Healing I will be invincible!" she cried out only to quickly have to dodge a pew thrown at her from an even angrier Tank.

Raynare was about to demand who he was until she got a good look at him in his werewolf form and her eyes narrowed. It was obvious she remembered the werewolf even from all those years ago.

"Well looks like one of you mutts actually did survive my little tests after all. I admit I was a little bit sloppier back than so you got lucky flea bag." said Raynare mockingly as she didn't see Tank as much of a threat even as a devil. He was still a smelly mutt in her book.

Her words only served to enrage Tank even more. The mere presence of this winged bitch brought memories of his families death screaming to the forefront of his mind but it wasn't just that. The whole point of coming here hadn't been to satisfy his need for revenge but to save an innocent girl. A girl who was now hanging lifelessly as the Fallen angel now took the part of the girl she needed to live. Tank blamed himself for not acting quicker and now because of him another innocent had died by this bitch's hands and he couldn't stop it. But he would be damn sure to make her pay for it.

With a roar of rage Tanks accessories snapped as his form increased in size. Raynare backpedaled in shock but was even more surprised when Tank spread had spread his devil wings and had tackled her through the roof of the church and into the air. He then brought his claws up slashing into her side with enough force to send her backpedalling through the air for a good few feet before she managed to regain her balance.

Her side was bleeding heavily but then she used her newest acquisition and healed the wound almost instantly. She sent a smug smile at Tank who hovered a bit away from her. All Tank did was growl at her as it was just another reminder of how he had not only let down Kuru but also that girl probably still hanging in the church.

"You think you can challenge me you flea bag!? With Twilight Healing I'm invincible! Any injury you may give me will heal and when it is all said and done I will have your pelt on my wall right next to your miserable families!" cried out Raynare.

In response Tank let loos another roar that was much louder than the last one and moved at speeds Raynare couldn't track. Before she could even think of forming a light spear Tank was above her and sent an axe kick right down onto her shoulder shattering it like a twig and sending her careening towards the ground. she barely managed to regain her balance with a newly healed shoulder just above the tree line.

Forming a light spear she threw it at Tank who just slapped the hard light weapon away like he was swatting a fly. Tucking in his wings Tank nose dived towards a now fearful Raynare who desperately started throwing light spear after light spear at the incoming werewolf.

I did no good as Tank used his claws and swiped them all away while never losing speed. Yet just before he hit Raynare head on he disappeared which confused the Fallen angel. That was until she felt a tight grip on her wings. Looking over her shoulder she saw Tank who was now gripping her wings tightly and making her eyes widen in fear as she figured out what was about to happen to her.

"Heal this bitch." growled Tank before he violently ripped the wings of the alen angel off of her sending blood and feathers everywhere.

Raynare didn't even have time to scream in pain at the loss of her wings before she felt Tank's clawed hands around her throat holding her up. She clawed at his hand as she struggled to breath but Tank's grip was like steel as he gazed at her furiously. After all these years he had wited for this and now he had it. When he was revived Kuru promised him the chance for revenge and now here it was. Kuru sure could keep his promises.

"Payback's a bitch ain't it." was all Tank said before stabbing the claws of his free hand into Raynare's chest and straight through her heart.

He watched as the life left her eyes and when it was done he slowly pulled out his clawed hand as his anger began to subside. Eventually his werewolf form faded returning to his human form. Looking down at the dead angels limp hand he saw the two rings she had stolen from the girl. Using his free hand once more he took off the rings before finally letting go of Raynare's body and letting it fall down through the hole in the church he had made previously.

Taking a deep breath Tank felt as if a great weight had been lifted after so long. Then he slowly began to float back down into the church, there was still work to be done after all.

Yosuke vs. assassin (1)

"Well ain't this typical." grumbled Yosuke as he was hiding behind a tree as bullets relentlessly pelted it from his enemy.

He would easily be able to take her out with his lowest level attack the problem was she would easily be able to avoid it. That and he couldn't get close enough to her to bash her head in so his options were pretty limited. He was a support guy so going one on one against someone wasn't really his forte but he could manage.

This bitch though was actually starting to irritate him even more than he already was. After all Tank wasn't the only one who had suffered because of Fallen angels, At least Tank's focus and main source of pain came from one specific angel but Yosuke's hatred spread over the entire race and with good reason.

So while he was busy fighting this skank Kuru and the Gremory were having all the fun killing those Fallen. Needless to say he felt a bit irritated at his current predicament.

But his feelings on the Fallen wouldn't help him here as right now he needed to think of a way to off his current assailant and fast before his cover decided to give out and fall on him. Where the hell was she getting all these bullets!?

"Is it too late to call a truce lady?" Yosuke called out only for the shooting to continue, "guess not."

Looking around Yosuke tried to think of a plan. He just needed to distract her for 5.2 seconds and then it was over and right now he could only think of one way and it could turn out really well or really bad. Really bad being he winds up as a piece of devil swiss cheese.

"Nothing gained from sitting here." sighed Yosuke as he stood up and readied his harp.

Spreading his devil wings Yosuke shot into the air momentarily surprising the assassin. Her surprise quickly left however and she started to fire on him once more. But the [Bishop] was more than able to avoid the shots in the air. He started to get a little showy part way through but nonetheless the assassin was the one now getting frustrated at her inability to hit him.

This is what Yosuke had been hoping for as while he was flying he was strumming the cord's on his harp. It was a good thing he learned to play and move at the same time or even this option wouldn't have been available to him.

The assassin never noticed to blue glow under her feet as her gaze was still skyward. The only warning she received was when Yosuke stopped in mid air and was smirking down at her setting off warning bells in her head. It was only then she noticed the glow beneath her feet.

"By the power of music!" shouted Yosuke as he strummed the final cord and a pillar of magic erupted under the assassin's feet. A few seconds later and the blast died down leaving only the assassins partly melted pistols where she once stood.

"Well that went better than expected. Wonder how the others are doing?" wondered Yosuke as he turned and flew off towards the church.

Nico vs. assassin 2

"I figured you'd be better at this given your choice of weapon." said Nico as he delivered another punch to his opponents face sending them staggering back.

The only reason Nico had chosen this particular opponent was because they appeared to be a close range fighter like himself only to find out his so called opponent was a great disappointment. Sure he may have been a threat to other humans but to Nico he was mediocre at best.

He would give this to the guy though, he could take a punch.

"Fool I have only just begun to fight." spoke the assassin in a gravely voice.

The assassin then slammed his fists together and all of a sudden his gauntlets began to glow white with holy energy. Nico was so surprised by this change that he couldn't react in time when the assassin drove a fist into his gut at a much faster pace as well as with much more strength than before. That wasn't even counting the burning that came from being struck with holy energy.

Taking a few steps back Nico wiped some blood that began to drip from his lip before giving the man a small smirk. Now they were getting somewhere.

"Looks like you actually got some bite to go along with your bark. You've shown me yours now let me show you mine." Nico said as he retook his stance.

The assassin snorted at this before he charged Nico to deliver a right hook. He found himself surprised however as Nico lashed out and grabbed the approaching appendage with ease. Then before he could react he was pulled forward into Nico's incoming fist. The sound of the assassins nose being broken was clear as day before with another push Nico sent him tumbling along the ground.

To his credit the assassin got right back up and charged Nico once more with a flurry of punches that were either blocked or dodged by the [Pawn] with apparent ease. Nico was more than able to take any punishment this guy could give and dish out just as much or even more given the circumstances.

Eventually Nico had grown bored with prolonging the fight. He had better things to do than play patty cake with some so called assassin.

So on the assassins next strike Nico knocked the blow meant for his face away before delivering a left punch to the throat cutting off the mans ability to breath. The finisher came with a devastating right hook that actually crushed the mans skull on impact and ending his life.

Nico cast one last glance at his fallen opponent before running off towards the church where the other would no doubt be waiting at.

Hayate vs. assassin 3

Hayate said nothing as he engaged his opponent in a flurry of blades. Despite his opponents apparent advantage of two blades against his one it was clear who possessed the greater level of skill. Hayate was the weapon of a master swordsman at one time and had learned and improved upon all of his skills since that time.

That was not to say that his opponent wasn't skilled with his weapons but he was a novice compared to Hayate.

"You should concede. You and I both know that in the end I will be the victor in this battle nano." said Hayate as he blocked a sideswipe from his opponent and retaliated with a downward slash.

The assassin quickly twirled away from Hayate's attack and retook his stance.

"We shall see about that won't we you unholy bastard!" growled the assassin as rushed Hayate once more.

The assassins attack's had become more ferocious and had more power to them than before. At first this caught Hayate off guard but he quickly adapted to his opponents new fighting style. Sparks flew whenever their blades collided and soon enough it was hard to determine whose blade was whose as they became blurs.

Yet while the assassin could clearly be seen to be getting more frustrated by his lack of progress by the minute, Hayate kept his calm and stoic demeanor all the way through. Steadily the assassins frustration turned to desperation as he started to realize just how outmatched he ways by his foe.

Hayate began to see the realization dawning in his opponents eyes and started to up the ante as it were. Steadily Hayate began to make small cuts wherever he found an opening in the assassins guard which were becoming more and more frequent as fatigue began to set in for the assassin.

In next to no time at all the man was littered with various cuts staining his uniform with his own blood while Hayate looked as pristine as ever with not even a drop of sweat marring his form.

Then it came when the assassin made a desperate lunge only for Hayate to spin around the attack and deliver a back slash making a huge cut across the mans back and eliciting a cry of pain from him as he dropped to his knees.

"Now you see how pointless this battle was? You were doomed to fall from the beginning. I suggest you leave and seek aid while you still can. Consider this my mercy to you." said Hayate with his back still turned to the down assassin.

Said assassin growled lowly in his throat as white hot rage slipped through his veins. This damn devil was looking down on him and now he wants to give him mercy like he's some kind of weakling!? Never!

"Grrr DIE YOU BASTARD!" cried the assassin as he turned and lunged and swiped his blades aiming to take Hayate's head from his shoulders.

All he did was seal his fate as Hayate kneeled to avoid the attack while simultaneously bring his blade up behind him for the man to impale himself on Hayate's blade. The sword had gone straight through the assassin's chest leaving him to hang there as the assassin coughed out some blood.

"G-go *gah*..to h-h-hell you b-bastard." grumbled the assassin.

Yet the only response he received from Hayate was the quick extraction of the blade from the mans chest letting him fall face first to the ground. With a quick flick of the blade to remove the blood Hayate sheathed his sword and took off towards the church leaving the man to succumb to his wounds shortly after.

Aila vs. assassin 4

"Your really starting to get on my nerves now." growled Aila as she rolled away from another swing from her opponents weighted ball half of her kusarigama.

Dodge, deflect, dodge this little song and dance had been going on too long in Aila's opinion. Yet she couldn't get too close to her opponent without risking her head being bashed in or being cut by the sickle part of her opponents weapon. With her power it would take not but a single strike to cut down the assassin but the woman had proved very proficient at keeping Aila at a distance.

Aila hated using her weapon for prolonged periods of time due to the corruption effects she got from it. Already she could hear the whispers of her Sacred Gears occupant trying to take control. However she would not let him, she would never let that...thing control her as long as she breathed.

"Awe, is the pasty devil getting angry?" mocked the assassin as she twirled her weapon.

Okay, now Aila was mad. Call her pasty! Her womanly pride was damaged and now the one who damaged it must pay. Namely the bitch standing just a few feet away from her.

Aila raised Deathreaver and pointed it at the assassin. The blade glowed a chilly blue for a moment before suddenly skeletal hands shot out of the ground surprising the assassin. She immediately tried hacking at them with her sickle. By the time she managed to hack away the last hand Aila was already in front of her bringing down her blade on top of the assassin's head.

Said assassin yelped before bringing her chain up to block the blade. She held Aila back for a few moments before another weird occurrence came up in the form of her chain becoming covered in frost. Starting from where Aila's blade met the chain.

The assassin tried to pull back but Aila was relentless in her assault and completely throwing all safety out the window as her rage consumed her. She wanted to see this bitch bleed and damnit she was going to!

Bringing back her leg Aila quickly drove t forward and into the assassin's get sending her tumbling along the ground. The assassin quickly righted herself and sent the ball end of her kusarigama at the incoming Aila and struck the white haired women in her shoulder but Aila barely felt it as she continued her charge.

Seeing she couldn't pull back her other end in time the assassin brought up her sickle ready to defend herself. This didn't help her however as when she tried to block Aila's sword swing the deadly looking blade cut right through the weapon and leaving a long gash across the assassin's chest.

Following through with her swing Aila spung a full circle before driving her blade straight through the woman's gut and out her back. Almost instantly frost began to spread from the wound. Aila watched with a sort of glee as the woman let out a soundless pain filled scream as her body was steadily frozen into a large chunk of ice.

The [Knight] then violently yanked her blade from her now dead enemy and watched as she shattered into hundreds of bloody frozen chunks.

She then spent the next few moment's calming herself and resealing Deathreaver before heading to the church to regroup with he others. She just wanted this night to be over.

Olivia vs. Caretaker

"I see you've improved since we last met." commented Caretaker coldly as he blocked Aila's ice katana with his claymore.

"More than you can ever know you bastard, now just shut up and die!" yelled back Olivia as she tried to push back her former teacher only for the much larger man to push her back instead.

As she stumbled back Caretaker swung out with his claymore. Olivia brought up her own blade to defend but realized her mistake too late as her blade shattered and a light cut was made across her cheek. The Cerbures [Queen] quickly leaped back using her wings for some added boost. Now she stood a good few meters away from the still calm Caretaker glaring at him with utmost hatred.

"You know none of this would be happening if you hadn't of run off with that devil. Him and the rest of his kind are nothing but trash that needs to be wiped out." said Caretaker coldly making Olivia's rage skyrocket as she sent waves of water and ice at the man who weaved through the attacks.

"Don't you dare speak of him like that! He's given me everything I've ever wanted, from a family, a home, a purpose and has loved me more than you or anyone else in that hell hole could even comprehend! I hate you and that damn Organization and once I kill you I'll finally be rid of it for good!" screamed Olivia as she used her Sacred Gear and emitted a high pitch sound that made Caretaker's ears bleed yet the man barely flinched.

"Your going to have to do a lot better than that wench." was Caretaker's reply as he charged her with his Claymore once again.

Olivia used her magic once more to form a bunch of ice daggers which she then began to throw with great accuracy. Despite Caretaker's skills with his weapon he couldn't block all of them and some found home in his arms and legs but his vitals were left unscathed.

Growling at this Olivia was about to form another katana and charge him again only to stop and think for a moment. She knew she couldn't match Caretaker in a up and close fight. Even with her new devil powers Caretaker had far more experience in that particular area of fighting. No she would have to use something else, something she only ever used in a dire situation.

This particular trick of hers drained her immensely if used for too long but she never needed it for too long anyway so it wasn't really a problem for her.

Holding out her hand towards Caretaker she started to focus her magic. Seeing this Caretaker stopped wondering what she was up to now. He had read all the reports on her current capabilities and this didn't seem familiar. During this entire fight he had been debating whether to capture her and turn her into a nice little pet or just simply kill her. Personally he was leaning more towards the latter.

"Deciding to finally give in wench?" asked Caretaker as he shouldered his blade.

"Not even in your wildest dreams you fuck." responded Olivia with a smug smile as she clenched her hand in a grabbing motion.

Caretaker felt his whole body freeze up against his will. He tried to force himself to move but he just couldn't. He then turned his gaze to the still smiling Olivia and instantly knew it was her doing. Growling at her is eyes narrowed as for the first time Olivia had ever seen Caretaker lost his cool.

"You damn bitch! What the hell did you do t me!" he demanded.

"Nothing much old man... except now I'm in control of all the blood in your body. A little trick I picked up from spending time with my [King]. Something you could have never taught me." she responded coldly.

Caretaker tried struggling even more but as predicted it was a pointless endeavor on his part. Nothing he did could get him out of this and he knew it. He should of finished her when he had the advantage but since he wanted to make her suffer for betraying the Organization he was now at her mercy and he knew already what she was gonna do to him. So he decided to try and say something that would at least haunt her the rest of her days.

"You may kill me Olivia but it won't do you any good. You'll still always be that little bitch who killed whenever I told you to. No matter what you do nothing will ever get rid of all the blood on your hands. And that devil boy will only use you until your all dried up. When that day comes then you will truly know how worthless you are." said Caretaker coldly.

Olivia was silent for a moment taking in her former guardians words. When she looked him in the eyes though he didn't see and sadness or anger like he had been wanting or expecting. What he saw instead was a content and even happy expression on her face that really didn't fit this situation.

"You always were a bit dramatic old man. I know I'll never be able to wash away the blood on my hands, however I know I won't have to deal with that burden alone. I have Kuru and the others to help me through it and that's all I need. They are my true family and if you think Kuru will actually 'throw me away' then you don't know jack shit about him. Now be a good old dog and play dead." finished Olivia as she clenched her hands and crushed the mans heart.

She then relinquished her control over his body and let it fall to the ground lifelessly. Taking a few dep breaths Olivia for once in a long while felt truly at peace with herself. It was as if she had finally let go of something she had been hlding onto for so long. Needless to say it was very refreshing.

Her little moment of serenity was broken however by the explosion nearby cause by Kuru and his fight with Bethor. Sighing to herself Olivia spread her wings before taking off in the direction of the battle between her [King] and the Fallen angel.

Kuru vs. Bethor

"Is that all you got Fallen angel!? I was expecting more of a challenge from all the shit you spout from that mouth of yours!" called out Kuru as he crossed blades with the Fallen angel yet again in the air.

Throughout the entire battle with the Fallen angel Kuru had kept an arrogant smile that served to infuriate his opponent more every time he saw it which is just what he wanted. But if Kuru had to be honest he was pretty disappointed in his current 'opponent'. Truly this guy was more talk than anything else from what Kuru had seen so far.

Bethor hadn't even managed to land a scratch on the Cerbures heir while he was littered with multiple cuts. Truly a pathetic sight in Kuru's eyes.

After kicking Bethor away Kuru dispelled his sword as he glared down at a panting Bethor with disdain.

"So like a Fallen angel, always running their mouths about how 'powerful' they are but when push comes to shove their nothing but a bunch of weaklings. Just like the pathetic excuse in front of me." commented Kuru making Bethor grind his teeth and glare at Kuru heatedly before the angel actually smiled which made Kuru raise an eyebrow in curiosity at what the man was thinking.

"Seems you aren't all talk either devil-san. But now its time for you to learn exactly how I earned my wings." said Bethor with a manic grin as he spread his hands out.

Instantly from each of his fingers threads of light spread out and kept lengthening. As Kuru wondered what the man was going to do with those strings of his Bethor swung his hands forward with his strings doing the same. Widening his eyes Kuru dropped down just barely avoiding being hit but one did manage to nick his cheek which began to bleed a bit.

"You like my Holy String's devil!? With these I'll turn you into chunks of meet and feed you to the hounds! Then I'll do the same to your little devil servants starting with that bitch caretaker has no doubt killed by now!" laughed Bethor not noticing the dark look Kuru had adopted.

"I was going easy on you before Bethor but after that little statement I think it's time I put you down like the rabid dog you are. It's time everyone learned to fear the name Cerbures once more." said Kuru as he began to form another weapon in his hand only this one was unlike his usual swords, no this was his most preferred weapon and the one he excelled at the most out of all the weapons in his arsenal.

The weapon had a shaft about eight feet long but at the end of it rested a curved blade extending about four feet. In Kuru's hand now rested a scythe and combined with his wings he looked like an angel of death which was pretty ironic with him being a devil. A fact which was not lost on either of the two combatants though neither decided to voice it.

"A scythe? That's what's gonna make me fear the 'Cerbures name'? Seems losing your pathetic family knocked a few screws loose." said Bethor mockingly only for a chill to crawl up his spine as a dark aura of barely contained anger readiated from Kuru.

The Cerbures heir didn't speak, instead he decided to act as he seemingly disappeared from the Fallen angels sight. Before Bethor could even realize what had happened he felt a feeling as if he was missing something. Looking to either side he found that both his arms had been cut off at the elbow. Shock was the first thing Bethor felt before the sheer agony hit him and he began to scream in pain.

His screams were cut short however as Kuru now had his hand wrapped around his throat choking him slightly. Kuru's eye's had gone completely black as he seemed to stare into the Fallen angels soul. Kuru then changed his scythe into a dagger before plunging it straight into the Fallen's gut.

Almost instantly Bethor could feel the poisonous effects of shadow magic. Unlike light magic which burned devils and felt as if lava was flowing through their veins, shadow magic had the exact opposite effect. Instead it was a bone chilling cold almost like frostbite and while it spread quickly it felt agonizingly slow to the victim all the way up until it reached the heart and they died.

"This is why my family was feared by angel kind asshole. While your light magic is poison to devils my families shadow magic is poison to angels. During the Great War we had the highest kill count among all three factions and it was because of this right here. Isn't history fun Bethor-san? Too bad your about to become just another causality that no one will bother to remember. Goodbye Bethor and may you rot for eternity in the afterlife." said Kuru as the life finally left the angels eyes and his body went limp.

Kuru let go of the angels corpse and let it fall unceremoniously to the ground without a care. He then waited a few moments before Olivia appeared hovering right next to him and looking down at Bethor's body.

"You took longer than expected to dispose of him Kuru." she commented idly.

"Eh I thought he'd prove to be entertaining and for a brief moment he was. Still the outcome was obvious from the start. How about you Oli-chan, did you finally get some closure?" asked Kuru with a hint of worry at the end.

"Yes, yes I did." Olivia said with a smile and a small blush as she remembered exactly what she said before she finished Caretaker. Shaking her head her expression turned serious once more along with Kuru's

"Good, now lets meet up with the others. Pervy-san, Koneko and Kiba should be arriving any minute now." said Kuru and after receiving a nod from his [Queen] both took off towards the church.

Church

When Kuru and Olivia arrived inside the church via the large hole in the roof they were greeted by the bodies of ton's of exorcist, one particular Fallen angel with a hole in her chest and Kuru's peerage standing over the body of one Asia Argento. When they landed the first to approach them was a depressed looking Tank.

"I'm sorry Boss. I just wasn't quick enough to save her." he said with a slight whimper.

Placing a hand on his [Rooks] shoulder Kuru spoke in an understanding tone, "it's alright Tank. We can't save them all. Luckily Rias already had a plan in case this happened."

It was just then that Issei and his companions busted in through the front of the church looking ready for a fight only to be surprised to see Kuru and his peerage had seemingly taken care of everything.

"Geeze doesn't anyone knock anymore?" jested Yosuke.

But no one had really heard him as they were too focused on Issei who had rushed to Asia's body and was trying to shake her awake while calling out her name.

"Asia! Asia come on wake up dammit!" cried Issei over and over again.

It would have been a heartbreaking scene if not for the fact Kuru already knew what was going to happen in the next few minutes. In that time Rias and Akeno had both walked through the door with satisfied smiles on their faces as they joined the others. Seeing her [Pawn] in such a state saddened Rias but she knew in a moment he would be overjoyed with what she had to say.

"Issei," she said kindly getting the Boosted Gear wielder's attention, "I know you care for her and that she is gone now, however this doesn't have to be permanent. I will make sure she will live again. After all it wouldn't due to have my servants depressed all the time now would it?" said Rias kindly as she pulled out a bishop piece.

Kuru couldn't help but shake his head at his long time friend. Things were never dull around here it seems.

Well there you have it the next chapter of the story. Sorry if some of you found the fights a bit short but I plan to make them longer in the future and not cram them all into one chapter so look forward to that. Review and/or PM me and I like the arc ideas I'm getting so far as well!
