I do not own Highschool DxD or any of its creators content. Duh. I'm not attempting to be blasphemous, the religious elements and charecters are not related to anything IRL and any resemblance is merely a co-incidence.

Well, I died, and guess how? You are correct! Unless you were wrong but that doesn't matter. I was an O3 piloting a Hornet when suddenly the whole left wing along with my engines were obliterated by an enemy AA missile system. Flares didn't work as well as my ejection system. So I was left, stuck in my seat of a falling aircraft with my wizzo screaming in terror behind me. Crash...
Now I'm just gliding along black abyss. With nothing but my thoughts to deal with. I just thought it was some sort of purgatory, where I will be judged and sent to either hell or heaven. Not that I was a religious person. But what I'm experiencing right now must mean there is life after death. So highly likely I'll be in either of those places.
It certainly took me a while to get somewhere, it was as if I was swimming among the galaxies towards a certain direction. I was awed and shocked by what I'm seeing. Is this what everyone experiences? Suddenly a portal opened right in front of me and I was violently sucked in. I curled up and prepared for the worst. When I came out my body was spinning so fast I had to stay in pose until I slowed down to halt.
"What is this place?" I asked aloud. Only white was seen, not blinding but everywhere, the portal I came from is nowhere to be seen.
"You are in my mindscape." Answered a voice. A very pure and warming voice of an elder man. I turned around to look at whoever had spoken. What I saw shocked me. A man with a white beard flowing silver hair and a white tuxedo suit with a cane.
"So you are real?! I'M SORRY FOR BEING AN ATHEIST ALL MY LIFE AND THINKING YOU NEVER EXISTED PLEASE DON'T SEND ME TO HELL!" I pleaded, who would've known? Not me. I WOULD HAVE NEVER IMAGINED MEETING A GOD!
Now that I looked at him, he was not angry, he just stood there with an amused fatherly expression.
"Are you actually god?" I asked. Now that I got my crap together I found my cognitive processes dominating again.
"Yes, but not yours." He answered cryptically.
"What do you mean not my god? Are you Budha? I'm not chinese sorry..." That was unexpected. Well who knew? I was a little surprised when he burst out laughing.
"AHAHAHAHA, I HAVEN'T LAUGHED LIKE THIS IN A MILLENIA! TRULY YOU ARE A COMEDIAN!" And he just kept laughing. I was mildly confused. I hope I didn't insult him lest I get sent to the last circle of hell.
"Don't fret, Budha is an old friend of mine. I'm THE god, not to be arrogant, that's just how everyone knew me. You are probably confused and rightfully so. I'm a god of a different, sort of an alternative universe to yours. A land full of oppai, and hentai logic! Aren't you surprised?!" God asked me.
HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO REPLY? This is the holy being everyone is worshipping and here he acts like a complete idiot.
"... I can read your mind..." God deadpanned.
"..."
"It's fine, criticism is a way to improve after all. Let me explain what happened from the start. First I have to admit I'm not a perfect being and was greatly saddened when my oldest child revolted. I was trying to be just and fair to anyone, and ended up in a very bad relation with him for the rest of my life. I regretted my decision to banish him until the end of my life, even when we were locked in mortal combat." God started explaining his story and I was mildly confused.
"You are speaking as if you are no longer alive." I rightfully asked, fearing his answer.
"You would be correct, I was killed during a four way battle. Don't interrupt me. My eldest son was a being of love and purity, but his sense of superiority corrupted him. I thought I made them perfect and unable to sin but I was wrong. When my other children saw him falling, out of a sense of loyalty to him, they followed him right into the underworld. This was a place where I kept the worst being ever." He sighed and continued.
"Samael. The very VERMIN that made my other dearest creations sin. There my dear Lucifer founded the underworld alongside 72 other angels that followed him. Our relations were not that bad even. It sort of felt like my son growing up and moving out. We talked from time to time and we were amicable. I thought I could mend the wound. But ended up just pushing away. What hit the nail in the coffin of our relationship is my second biggest mistake." Again god takes a deep breath and sighed. There I saw a broken man, tired and wounded, not physically but mentally. This is when I really felt bad for him.
"Azazel, he went above and beyond to further our influence. He was one of the most dutiful angels I could find. But during his crusade against baltic pagans, he found a woman. Honestly I should have been happy for him right? But I was arrogant and thought myself and my creations above such things and promptly banished him. But not in the same way as Luci. The system that I had just brandished found not only him as a sinner, but a THIRD OF HEAVEN!" God looked visibly angry but then it turned into melancholy.
"I was greatly stressed and could not find it in myself to stop working to mend my relationships with my dear Luci and Azazel. Well, enough of that, you are probably interested in how I died?" He asked, knowing my answer. Of course I nodded.
"Well, there was one of the biggest threats to my creations, not just the angels but humans and devils too. The Trihexa, or 666 as some of others know him. As soon as I found out about him, I sealed him, draining me of most of my powers. This wouldn't have been so bad if not for Licufer and Azazel finding out about my weakness. The only thing keeping our factions from a total war is their knowledge of my power. I was the third strongest being after all, not including trihexa. Even Shiva feared my might." God looked into distance in thought.
"As soon as both of my sons found out about my state, they declared war on each other and heaven. This was the most heartbreaking thing I've had to experience. My sons are fighting over power. Heads so far up their rectum that they didn't notice the repercussions. Its wall ended with armies of hundreds of thousands fighting on the field of Lucifaad. Fallen angels, my white children and Lucifers devils. It got so bad that I had to be on the field myself. Coincidentally there were also two very angry dragons rampaging through hell. After killing the Leviathan, Beelzebub, Asmodeus, I had to kill my own son, MY OWN SON!" Oof, sounds harsh, If I had kids I don't think I would have the sheer willpower to even want to kill them, I can't imagine what he is feeling.
"I was out of breath, my magical were already halved after sealing Trihexa, and after fighting four strongest beings of the underworld, I was almost depleted. And that's when the dragons struck. Obliterating not just the heavens holy army but Azazels and diseased Lucifer's soldiers. Faced with such odds, me and Azazel banded together and defeated them. But during our battle, Albion weakened me and Ddraig dealt me a finishing blow as a goodbye. Trust me a hundred boost Ddraig hitting me felt like the worst pain ever. Luckily I had the last laugh and my newly minted sacred gear system activated and trapped them..." Makes sense, but god dying? That just sound like those jokes about god being dead and we killed him stuff. But I had one question, a very major one.
"But where does this all involve me?" I asked a very valid question. God seemed to consider me before answering.
"Well, gods can't die. Very contradictory to what I just said. After all I'm a physical manifestation of an actual being. So what was actually done is they killed part of my soul inside of my physical body. I'm not stupid despite all I've said, I don't store all of my eggs in one basket. Well, you conveniently died when I needed a second half for my soul." He answered. I was bewildered.
"Are you just going to absorb me and kill my soul?!" I was freaking out. I'm about to be killed by god.
"No, no, no nothing like that. Think of it more like us sharing the physical realm. I found a way for us to coexist actually." Well that alleviated my worries, but my training told me to always be alert, so that's what I'm going to do.
God then waved his hand and suddenly I felt a nauseating sensation. My vision blacked out and I fell into the abyss again. I KNEW I SHOULDN'T HAVE TRUSTED THE BASTARD. Wait a second. I feel everything again, I feel as if I'm ALIVE! It's still dark but I can open my eyes. I Tried to swim up, out of the darkness, only to end up in the middle of nowhere. Grey clouds rolling over this place. Lighting strikes from time to time. Now actually looking around myself, I notice. Miles upon miles of gravestones. This is a graveyard. Makes sense. And I'm standing in the middle of it, covered in dirt. Looking at myself, I notice the same well trimmed beard, and pearl white tuxedo. Kind of like the villain from cube zero, just without the mechanical eye. And then mysteriously a cane appeared in my hand.
[Can you hear me?]
Was this in my head? God?
[This is my head, but yes, this way I can talk to you, don't worry this is not forever, this is just a thing I came up with for a short period of time. First I want for you to mask your presence, you have all my powers but no skill, but you can easily execute it because of me. Think of it as this body's muscle memory. I used this ability very often. First, feel for your nature, look inside yourself and find it.]
That was very unhelpful. I sat down in mud and imagined my nature. AND IT APPEARED! WHAT? Sort of like a green tether going through my body.
[Good you have found it. Now, for any other person, even the ones capable of magic it would take decades of dedication to achieve what you did in seconds. Now I want for you to imagine it going invisible. DO NOT IMAGINE IT DISAPPEARING, just going invisible.]
Okay, I did and I stopped seeing the flow in my body but I can still feel it. I think I did it correctly.
[Good, you have a pretty good grip on basics, now set up a teleportation circle, I'll provide all the logic myself.]
I guess I just have to imagine a magical circle? Okay let me try... and BOOM! A golden circle with various runes inscribed appeared rotating on the ground. It's kind of mesmerising... I stepped in it and it teleported me into.. The most beautiful place ever. Trees with fruits nobody had ever seen, animals that look like they were sculpted to perfection, green planes that are glowing from the golden sunlight. Wow... This is undescribable.
"Welcome to Eden! My home and my holy plane!" Announced god's voice. Outside of me? I looked back and saw an exact copy of myself. Well, not really myself, this is god's body after all.
"This is the only place my soul can manifest itself without separating. And I think you need a different appearance to avoid confusion." God said and promptly waved his hand. My insides were fighting it, but my mind told them to just let it happen. And I saw my form transforming. Growing taller and wider, my wrinkles fading away and my hair turning brown. God then presented a mirror and then I saw something interesting.
Blue eyes, middle eastern-european features. Fave sculpted by god, literally. Well trimmed brown beard, not too long not very short. Pretty long hair with my sides going behind the top of my ears and down my head until the top of my neck. My first comparison was Ewan McGregor, but my second... Don't tell me...
I immediately look at the pond nearby and point my finger at it.
"A fine wine but just a cheap trick, for the next century you will stay here and I will teach you what it means to be god and how to use my powers. If I do everything right, you will be as strong if not stronger than me in my prime." God explained what will happen in the future, but I was too busy being shocked. I'M JESUS!
"If you wish so you can change your appearance any time."
"Yeah, I'm not you, I'm myself and having this appearance will make me feel like an extension of your powers. But for now..." How can I say no to being Jesus? I'll stay in this form while we train.
"Before we start, let me explain how important you are right now. I split my power equally and gave the other half to you. It took me one hundred years to transport your soul, and that puts us roughly at 1600 AD. You were in the 21st century so I'll help you adapt to the past. And last important matter, what is your new name?" God asked. I had a name, why not just use it? Schulze von Kassler. Yes, It's weird, I was a german piloting an american aircraft so what?
"Hmmm, How about, Novadio Croisare. Eh? Eh?" Gotta say, this is the most unoriginal name ever I could have chosen considering the situation. My name roughly translates to Newgod Christ. Wow.
"Wow indeed. Well, lets start training. I don't want for you to embarrass me by being weak." God stated. His face taking a dark tint and an evil smile spreading across his face. Oh god no. Literally.
"Did you feel it sister?" Said a certain Archangel.
"Yes, it can only be him."
"Father."
Okay, I've made this on the go, I always wondered why no one considered god as an actual charecter of the past and treated him like a one off piece of history. Well, I tried to be original. Also as you might have noticed. This is a blatant powerfic so if you are into that I suggest you don't continue. I probably won't continue this. This story is just a brainchild of a weird dream I had and DxD.
