AN: Enjoy

I was in the living room. Rias and co. Were firing off questions like machine gun bullets.

"When were you planning on telling us?"

"What's it like inside the suit?"

"What was it like to kill the titan?"

"Is your suit air-conditioned?"

All these questions were obnoxious, to say the least. My mind was on other things as I vaguely answered the simple questions they were throwing at me. The Devil King had called me earlier in the week. He covered up Zadans death and made me out to be some kind of hero. Showing up, late to the party, but killing the murder. I was no hero. I had multiple interviews spreading some bogus story. I never showed my face though. I was sure to stay in my suit. Sir Zechs was slowly turning me into some kind of superhero. Not some insane killer. Kind of like what he did with Issei I suppose. Oppai Dragon. That shit never gets old.

"Do you have a woman in your life?" This question pulled me from my thoughts. My eyebrows raised instinctively. Koneko had decided sitting in my lap was the most comfortable for some reason. She really was like a cat, practically purring as I rubbed her behind the ears.

Xenovia had asked this question. Was she crazy? I had opened my mouth to say something but Rossweisse cut her off.

"He's my man! Back off!"

I was normally calm and collected. Well easily agitated and firm but this was flustering. I honestly didn't know what to say.

"As if, I'm sure your womb couldn't handle the might of bearing the Doom Slayers child." Xenovia retorted.

Rossweisse looked hurt and crossed her arms with a hmph.

"Both of you are crazy, He's my man anyway" Akeno cut in. 'Not her too' I thought as the three got into a heated staring contest.

"Girls. Stay focused." Rias said, looking unamused and trying to return the conversation back to the topic at hand. Azazel let out a laugh and smiled.

"Getting all the ladies are we now slayer?" He said.

Rias had explained to me what a 'rating game' was and how everyone was like a chess piece. I was not very interested I was only interested in the killing. She explained how I was going to take Rossweisses spot and I would be interviewed for some reason. She said the game was getting a lot of publicity since Lord Riser had gone and ran his mouth. He still didn't have a clue I was the Doom Slayer and we all had a mutual agreement to keep it that way. I was kind of like their ace in the hole. Rias hoped she wouldn't need me to 'do my thing' but if it came down to it she wouldn't lose.

I thought back to what Sirzechs had asked me earlier as the meeting came to a close. He looked quite worried when he asked me.

"You're hud. We saw that It has a 'sanity meter' "

I had nodded slowly before answering " It's nothing to worry about I assure you. I advise against diving too deep into my past. Some things are best kept hidden." Some of my secrets had come back to me. I had no intention of telling anyone about them. He must think I'm some loony who needs to be locked up. Ha! Funny joke. The rest of our conversation had gone smoothly and he even fed me. You can never turn down free food.

There was a huge number of reporters who had been crammed into this tiny room. I was getting claustrophobic as I took a seat in the front row next to Issei and Rias. There was clapping and a few ooo's and aa's as we took our seats. The flashing from the cameras was making my head hurt. I despise reporters, their kind makes me sick.

An announcer had said something about how each leader would get to say something about the upcoming match. I was not paying attention at all. My blood alcohol content was dangerously low and I was trying my best to fix that. I took a big gulp from my flask as Riser gave some kind of speech about nobility and righteousness. He finished with something about teaching me a lesson. I chuckled a bit to myself. Rias was then given the floor to speak. She put in her two cents then the floor was opened to questions.

Most of the questions were at me, the 'bodyguard'. I hated being on the spot. I tried my best to reply with 'No comment' and other things of that nature unless it was something simple to answer that wouldn't give away who I was. All these people wanted to know who I was. Where I came from etc etc.

My blood was beginning to boil. I took another drink from my flask as reporters continued to fire off questions at me. Everyone could see I was visibly getting agitated by these obnoxious questions.

I stood up in a rage and grabbed ahold of the microphone before me.

"All you people keep asking me about who I am and what I've already done, you should be concerned with what I'm about to do" The look of fear on everyone's face was priceless.

"I'm about to disrespect all over Lord Risers ass! And there isn't a damn thing any one of them can do to stop me!" I gave a little sassy head shake and dropped the microphone as I finished. I stormed off the stage as I crushed my flask and dropped it on the ground. The cameras flashed as I exited the room.

I met with Sir Zechs just before the game. He informed me of the politics behind the game. He didn't want me to just go out there and expose myself to the world. He wasn't opposed to the idea of me revealing myself entirely but he was not quite sure if this was the right time. John Kane had gotten a pretty decent following after my outburst at the interview. I was seen as some kind of symbol of defiance and someone everyone could get behind. The Doom Slayer was a dangerous vigilante who served justice and we were just waiting for the right time to combine the two.

"I've worked really hard to put things right after you killed Zadan Kane, please don't let this all go to waste." The red-haired devil told me.

"I wouldn't plan on it" I said with a sly smile.

I, the Devil King and Azazel were all drinking at the Gremory mansion. We were quite inebriated as the other two droned on about turning me into some kind of symbol. Maybe giving me a tv show of some sort.

"No no no, He needs to wear two hats!" Azazel said, getting far too into the idea. I honestly didn't know what hats he was talking about but I laughed and drank along with them. My mind was wandering. Where was Crash? I mean Zoe. The dragon girl. God, I must have had too much to drink... And the night before the rating game too. I was so plastered I couldn't even think straight. I was drinking like I had already won.

I couldn't get that dragon out of my mind. She was beautiful. A clear-cut copy of Crash. Where was She at. I clearly hadn't cared that much because I never teleported back to try and find her. That would be weird I was acting like an angsty teen. Worrying about things and never doing anything to change them or make them better.

What would I say if I ever did see her again? 'Hi you're the girl I've been dreaming of, please be mine' no that sounded like a bad 80's song. 'Hey, in another life you and I killed a lot of people' totally not weird at all. I felt like a high school girl when I thought about this. I don't need someone to love. Those three girls also messed with my head as we grew closer to this game. They would sneak into my room at night or try and confront me to have my way with them. It was some pretty weird stuff. Also, very out of the ordinary for Rossweisse.

" Kane, Manly guys can wear pink. Dontcha think?" Sirzechs slurred as he unclasped his dress shirt, revealing a pink undershirt. I almost laughed at the way he presented this.

"Yeah of course. The manliest guys wear pink" I reassured him, trying to hold back a laugh but Azazel couldn't. He started poking fun at Sirzechs as I had to try even harder to hold in my laughter.

"Grayfia washed this white shirt with my red socks again." Lucifer said. This had apparently been a recurring issue. Which I found rather funny.

The more alcohol the two had, the more they wanted me to just flaunt that I was the Doom Slayer. Maybe I could use booze to my advantage at some point. I'll keep that in mind. VEGA write that down! I thought to myself slyly. We ended the night with a celebratory shot of Whisky. I teleported home and into my room.

I sluggishly slid my shirt off and slid into bed. The bed grabbed me and cuddled into me as I laid there. Wait a second, beds can't do that.

"What the fuck?!" I slurred as I tried to figure out what was going on. All this booze wasn't helping me.

Xenovia pushed a finger against my lips to silence me. She had apparently been waiting in my room for my return for hours. She pulled out a pair of panties (which I could only assume were hers) from under the covers. She tossed them at me and winked.

"Good luck fuck for tomorrow?" She said, trying her hardest to be seductive.

I rolled my eyes and picked her up. I carried her to the door and plopped her on the ground. "Sorry I need sleep. I have a headache." I muttered as I closed the door. I heard her pout and head down the hall to her room as I slid back into bed and drifted off to sleep.

We entered from the west into a giant stadium. Sirzechs was right John Kane had a huge following after my outburst. I got cheers and waves while we walked into the center of the field. We met with Riser and his harem as the beginning ceremony hit. The announcer went through his spiel of announcing players and pausing for cheers. I wasn't surprised when I got the loudest cheer. Apparently, Lord Riser wasn't as popular as he thought he was. I looked around at the huge crowd. We surely had a huge following. This was the most people I had ever seen in one place.

"Today's game theme will be an all-out team battle. In honor of Lord Zadan's death the playing field will be based off of his palace."

It took all my power not to wince as they said his name. My blood boiled slightly at the mere mention of his name. The field was mirrored down the middle of the palace which I remembered so well. It wasn't a perfect copy but the mental damage had already been done.

The field formed around us as the announcer continued.

"Each team will have five minutes to prepare and as always. When the king is killed the game is over."

My PTSD was on edge already. They had put a room at the beginning of the entrance where the gate was. I was getting flashbacks of the slaughter. My hands twitched slightly as Rias began coaching her club members. She coordinated attacks with everyone else I was the last line of defense with Rias. I was too sit in the room and guard her. I was ok with that. I didn't want to see Zadan's palace again anyway.

The match began as the troops set out. I heard the announcers over the intercom. I almost forgot we were in some kind of game. Wait, was that Azazel's voice? He never mentioned he would be a caster for this game.

Azazel and the other commentator (who's name evaded me at the moment) followed the battle blow for blow. I sat in the king's room on a couch across from Rias. I was sipping on my new flask rather heavily as Rias eyeballed me. My hands began to shake slightly as the sounds of the battle raged on outside. Rias could tell something was wrong as we listened to the announcer's jest while our friends were being murdered outside this room. My eyesight began going hazy as I took another sip from the flask.

Gasper has been eliminated.

I winced at the sound. The eliminations began. My hands began shaking a bit more as the battle continued.

"What is wrong Kane? Everything's going to be okay" Rias said but I ignored her.

Koneko has been eliminated.

"Sanity levels are dropping" VEGA said. Rias went wide-eyed. Sir Zechs must have told her about this.

Kiba has been eliminated.

The thought of losing my family for real was too much. I knew this was a game but it was all too real. Zadans palace outside the window. My family being slaughtered one by one as I sat in here like a pussy and did nothing.

Asia has been eliminated.

My vision continued to shift. Traces of red showing up as I gazed at the ground. I finished the contents of my flask as I dropped it to the floor.

Xenovia has been eliminated.

I stood up rather jerkily

"Sanity levels are dangerously low" VEGA reported again. Rias looked visibly scared.

"VEGA I know!" I said. I was clearly agitated at this point. He was like a nagging woman sometimes. Pestering me about things when I knew they were a problem. I already knew what was happening.

Akeno and Issei have been eliminated. The only remaining players are Rias and Kane.

It was now or never. It was all up to me. Those fuckers were out there about to come knocking on my door and take my last family member. I wasn't going to let them take her. I wasn't going to let them hurt anybody else. I wipe tears away from my eyes as I moved toward the door.

" Come on out Kane! It's time to learn your lesson!" I heard Riser call out as I stood in front of the door.

"Stay here." I ordered Rias who nodded in response.

My vision went completely red as I lost it. I threw the door open knocking one of Risers harem girls back onto the ground as I exited the house. The bloodshed looked great and I was about to add to it. Instantaneously I pulled out my double barrel and unloaded the first barrel into the face of the girl who I knocked on the ground while the familiar black goo consumed me. My armor forming as I fired my second round into another harem member.

My armor finished forming as my eyes smoked fiercely. I ejected the shells from my trusty 'boomstick' as I glared at the remaining members before me.

Isabella and Xuelan have been eliminated.

I could hear the gasps from the crowd as John Kane and the Doom Slayer became one. Both identities fighting for justice or some garbage like that. Not taking shit from anybody and dishing out ass-whoopings whenever I saw fit. I was somebody they could get behind as a people. I was an inspiration.

Lord Riser looked at me wide-eyed. That pretty little smirk had been wiped of his face really quick as he realized what was about to ensue.

I loaded two fresh shells into my shotgun and the fight was on. I darted forward and slammed into one of Risers pawns. The mere force from the impact caused her to explode into a mist of blood.

Burent has been eliminated!

A pair of twins with green hair and chainsaws charged me. I stood my ground as they swung their weapons at me. I grabbed both chains simultaneously. The chains shattered, rendering the weapon useless. Fortunately for them, I had an extra that I was more than willing to lend to them.

I pulled out my own special chainsaw, which happened to already be stained with blood. I gave it a pull and it roared to life. I made quick work of the twins as I dropped one of my personal favorite weapons to the ground. It dissipated as the announcer said Ile and Nel have been eliminated.

I cracked my knuckles as two cat girls approached me. They reminded me of Koneko kind of... Koneko. My rage grew as they approached. The hand to hand combat that ensued was very ugly to watch. We walked around in a circle and threw a few jabs at each other before I went in for the kill. I darted behind one and snapped her neck. I grab the other one by the head and squeezed as hard as I could. Her head exploded sending brain matter onto my visor. The blood that coated my face didn't matter much. All I saw was red anyway in my rage. I felt a slight prick in my stomach just as I finished dealing with the twins.

Ni and Li have been eliminated.

I looked down to see the blade of a sword protruding from my abdomen. I had been careless. I didn't feel the pain anymore. I turned slowly to face the long black-haired woman who had seen an opportunity and had taken it. The look of delight from Risers peerage slowly turned into shock and denial as I eyed the remaining few. I closed in on the girl, who was now weaponless.

"What are you?!" She screamed as I ripped her in half.

Siris has been eliminated.

Karlamine has been eliminated.

Isabela, Xuelan, and Mihae have all been eliminated. All the remains are lord Riser and Yubelluna.

I obliterated four more of Risers peerage with a rocket. There was not really a whole lot to say. One second, they were there, the next they were a puddle before me.

I took a step defiantly into the puddle of Riser's former peerage as I taunted him.

"Your ass is mine!" I growled as slide my thumb across my throat. Riser looked visibly defeated as my trusty boomstick formed in my hands once again.

Riser shook in his boots as I got up in his face. I looked down on him slightly as he trembled with fear.

Riser's queen interrupted our staring contest, which I was winning by the way.

"You will have to go through me to get to him." She threw me back and unleashed a flurry of explosive attacks. I could see the duo smirk as I was engulphed in her magic. There was a puff of smoke and when it was all cleared all that remained was that sword that was in my chest moments ago. I had taken it out and left it on the ground as a distraction.

I was standing behind The Bomb Queen with my arms crossed. I heard the announcers go wild as they realized where I was.

I stomped down on her ankle. My boot crushed bone as if it were toothpicks. I heard her cry out in pain. I hated when women cried, so I decided to do something about it and fast. I snapped neck and silenced her.

Riser began to back away from me before stumbling over his own feet. I heard him plead for his life. Before finally surrendering and giving up. I stuffed the barrel of my Boom Stick into his mouth as he wept.

"Pussy" I growled as I pulled the trigger. That was the end of lord Riser.

The field around me returned back to the arena. The crowd was going wild.

"Rias wins" I heard above me over an intercom. I stood in the center of the field. My wounds we no more. There was no more blood. Just a stadium full of supernatural beings who were all singing my praises. It felt weird. Being praised for slaughtering innocent people. I was unsure of how I felt about this whole situation now. I was frozen for a moment longer as I spotted Rias an Akeno watching me out of the corner of my eye.

I had to get away. I started moving on my own. I made my way to the edge of the arena. I wasn't thinking straight. I could have teleported anywhere else. I needed a drink. Anything to get my mind off this horrendous game. As I passed through crowds of people I got pats on the back and arms. People grabbing me like I was a celebrity. I made my way out onto the street as I found the nearest bar. It was late in the day so I was good. My armor faded as I entered the bar and began drinking my sorrows away. Guess I'm what you would call an Alcoholic.

"I had a feeling I would find you here." I was greeted by Azazel. I was half expecting it to be another fan asking for an autograph or a picture of some sort. I was pretty far gone as he took a seat next to me and ordered something to drink. Rossweisse joined us shortly after.

"You had Rias worried" Azazel started. He was still sober and trying to play the role model.

"I don't really want to hear it right now." I replied. I was tapped on the back for another picture. I kind of wish I wasn't completely wasted right now... These photographs were getting old.

Rossweisse had less drinks than both of us and was already slurring helplessly.

I felt another tap on my back. I was about to lose my shit. I turned in a rage and had my mouth ready to strike as fast as my fists do. I paused. The heavens opened up and there was Crash. I mean Zoe... The dragon. No, it can't be, I must have had too much to drink.

"It took forever to find you Slayer. I finally caught your scent in this bar. Anyway" She babbled on for a moment. She was wearing a sweater and some form fitting jeans. She was stunning.

"Anyway, I owe you my life. I am now your servant." She concluded. Rossweisse was furious.

"You're cheating on me?!" She yelled.
