Alright guys here's the next chapter for ya! Now just to warn you I will not be describing the appearances of the cannon characters cause lets be honest here if you haven't seen them or know how they look just google image them cause you really shouldn't be reading a Highschool DxD story if you haven't seen the show before. So with my peace said let's get on with the story!
Kuoh Academy
"Well this was unexpected... not." deadpanned Kuru as he and his peerage entered the schoolgrounds and instantly became the center of attention of the other students.
"Holy crap who are they?" asked a random student as they saw the group walking.
"Wow those guys are so cute!" squealed a female student.
"Those girls look amazing!" drooled another male student.
Various comments such as those began to be spouted around non-stop and it was starting to get on some of their nerves. Especially the more perverse comments being thrown in. It took every ounce of willpower they had to not just unleash hell right then and there.
After grabbing their individual schedules the peerage split off. Kuru, Olivia, Aila, Ryujin, Hayate and Nico were all third years with Tank, Jynx, and Yosuke being second years. Though while Tank Jynx and Yosuke were lucky enough to be put in the same class the same couldn't be said for the rest.
Kuru, Olivia and Hayate were in the same class as Rias if Kuru did his homework right while Aila, Ryujin and Nico were with Sona.
"Alright you guys head to your classes and leak a bit of energy just to get Sona and Rias attention. If all goes to plan we'll definitely be getting a meeting with them but also be on guard, I'm sure you all sensed the fallen angel on the way in." spoke Kuru getting nod's of confirmation from the others.
With that said they all split up heading to their own classes. On the way to their class though Kuru, Olivia and Hayate passed by a girl that Kuru locked eyes with. Instantly he and the girls eyes narrowed in hostility as the two recognized each-other for what they really were.
As they passed each-other Kuru spoke to Hayate and Olivia without looking at them.
"Keep an eye on that one. Whatever that fallen bitch wants can't be good." said Kuru.
"As you wish my Lord." responded Hayate.
"I'll be sure to inform the others." added Olivia.
'What a great way to start the day. And I still have to meet Rias and Sona, fan-fucking-tastic.' sighed Kuru in his head.
In Class
Rias was sitting in her desk with Akeno waiting for classes to start but her mind began to wander. She knew one of the perverted trio Issei Hyodou possessed a powerful sacred gear. Also there was a fallen angel in her territory and she had a good idea that Issei was her target. This could be a good opportunity for her to gain a powerful new piece for her peerage if everything goes her way that is.
She was broken from her thoughts by the teacher making an announcement.
"Alright students today some new students are going to be joining us so please give them a warm welcome. You may come in now." said the teacher before the doors to the classroom opened to let in Olivia, Hayate and Kuru in that order.
Standing in front of the class more comments like they heard from when they were outside started being whispered amongst the class but Rias payed them no mind as her gaze was focused solely on Kuru. It was as if she had seen a ghost.
'It can't be! H-he's dead! Sizerch's nii-san told me he and his whole House was wiped out! And that energy... he's definitely a Devil and a powerful one at that but who is he!?' she raged in her mind not willing to believe Kuru was her dead childhood friend come back from the dead. All the while Akeno looked over at her [King] with concern at her odd behavior.
"Now introduce yourselves to the class please." addressed the teacher to the three.
"Hello my name is Olivia Dawson, pleased to meet you all!" greeted Olivia politely making some of the males drool at the sight of her which made keeping her smile a little bit harder as she really just wanted to castrate the perv's for giving her such lewd looks.
Next to step up was Hayate.
"Good day. My name is Hayate Tetsuken. Please treat me well." he said in his usual monotone with a slight bow at the end before retaking his place beside Kuru and Olivia.
Finally Kuru stepped up and now Rias' full attention was on him wondering who he was despite the small part of her mind hoping that he really was her childhood friend who was said to have perished with his family.
"Hello everyone! Name's Kuru Cerbures and I'm glad to meet all of you." said Kuru with a smile yet his eyes were solely fixed on Rias who had gone ramrod straight at hearing the name she had not heard in over ten years. She wanted so much to believe that this man was her childhood friend back from the dead but logic stopped her. For all she knew he was a fake sent to kill her when her guard was down. She would need to meet with him as soon as possible.
If this man wasn't who she thought he was and claimed to be then she would make him suffer for it before erasing him from existence. But if he actually did turn out to be whom she thought, and secretly hoped, he was...she would deal with that if and when it happened.
As it was she would have to wait for a chance to speak with him when the class broke for lunch.
With the rest of the peerage members they were receiving their own set of stares and labels from the student body. All of the guys were labeled as princes, save for Tank who was labeled as more of a punk due to his accessories and the sheer fact most of the males were scared shitless of him since he looked like he could rip them in half with minimal effort.
Nico gave off a feeling that made people want to just look up to him given his calm demeanor. This made him a sort of neutral among the crowd.
Ryujin was very quiet and despite his size people found his quiet nature quite endearing making him a hit with the ladies and an enemy to men. Oh who were they kidding, any guy from Kuru's peerage was an enemy to all the males on looks alone and the fact that the other males had no reputation to speak lest they were something negative.
Yosuke's laidback demeanor made him pretty approachable to the students so out of all of them he had the least trouble with the students.
Meanwhile the girls like Jynx and Aila were looked at as odd due to Jynx's love of research which creeped some people out but others found cute. Aila though was given a wide berth due to the cold aura she gave off that just naturally drove others away which was nothing new to her nor something she cared about.
After their introductions the teacher pointed the three towards some open seats, one of which just so happened to be right in front of Rias. Naturally Kuru took that seat while Olivia took the one right beside him. Hayate took a seat towards the back making him able to have a good view of the rest of the room.
As the teacher began his lessons Kuru began to feel the back of his head heat up and knew it was because of Rias. Said Devil was currently glaring right at the back of Kuru's skull as if trying to dig into his brain and pry out the answers she wanted completely ignoring the teacher's lecture.
This was how class progressed all the way up until the bell rang signaling the students to break for lunch. But before Kuru could even think about getting up from his desk Rias was already standing next to him with Akeno slightly behind her glaring down at him. Seeing this Olivia and Hayate stood still ready to intervene should Rias make an attempt to try and harm their [King].
"Something I can help you with?" asked Kuru already knowing where this was going.
"You're coming with me to my Clubroom. We have a few things to...discuss." said Rias and it was obvious from her tone that it wasn't a request.
Kuru simply stared at her for a moment before sighing in resignation. He really should have seen this coming since he knew how Rias was when it came to getting answers. There was no pulling away now so he might as well go along with it and hope for the best.
*sigh* "Alright, but you might want to get Sona to join us as well since this involves her as well. And I will be taking my [Queen] with me as you and her will no doubt be taking yours, agreed?" said Kuru with a similar tone that Rias gave before.
Now it was Rias turn to stare as she became more and more suspicious of the man who shared the same name as her childhood friend. He knew about Sona also being friends with them and that made her just a little more hopeful but also a lot more suspicious. Nonetheless she nodded in agreement and motioned for Kuru to follow her as she sent Akeno to get Sona.
As she did that Kuru turned to Hayate, "Hayate I want you to inform the others about what's happening so they don't worry. Do not come after me as Rias and Sona may see this as a sign of hostility. I'll summon you all if things turn bad but hopefully it won't come to that. Understand?"
"It is clear my Lord. I will make haste to inform the others and I wish you the best of luck in reconciling with your friend." spoke Hayate before leaving to complete his set task.
Walking after Rias Olivia fell in step just slightly behind Kuru.
ORC Clubroom
Now here Kuru was sitting silently on the sofa of the ORC Clubroom with Olivia standing behind him as Rias stared at him from her position behind her desk. This had been the situation for the past few minutes and needless to say that Kuru was feeling pretty awkward as they waited for Akeno to arrive with Sona.
Just as Kuru was about to lose his mind from the tense atmosphere the door to the room opened to reveal the Sitri Heiress herself along with her [Queen] Tsubaki. Upon seeing Kuru Sona froze for a moment as her eyes widened in surprise. Instantly she knew just why Rias wanted her here.
Sona managed to regain her composure quickly and took a seat across from Kuru as Tsubaki stood behind her.
"Well I'll just go make some tea for everyone." said Akeno as she walked away but no one heard this as the three House heirs stared at each-other silently.
Another few minutes of silence passed for them as no one was willing to break the tense silence just yet. It was a godsend when Akeno walked into the room carrying a tray of tea with a smile on her face. as she set the tea down Kuru was the first to reach out and take a cup saying a quick thank you to the [Queen]. His action was quickly followed by the other two and the atmosphere seemed to lighten just a bit.
Setting down his cup Kuru turned serious as he gazed at his two childhood friends. He wasn't going to sugarcoat his words or dick around with the situation. He was gonna lay all his cards on the table and hope for the best.
"Alright lets not mess around as we all know why we're here. Before you ask or say anything I'm gonna answer what I know your question is gonna be. Yes. I am Kuru Cerbures, Heir to the House of Cerbures and the friend you no doubt were told died the night his home was attacked and his family killed." said Kuru as he waited for the reactions from the two Heiresses.
He watched as various emotions crossed their faces. Anger, denial, hope, sadness and everything in between before both of them settled on a mask of emotionless judgment.
"How do we know your telling the truth? Kuru-kun was pronounced dead with the rest of his family ten years ago and you just show up saying that you are him out of the blue? I find that highly unlikely and a severe insult to Kuru-kuns name." said Sona as her magic began to rise along with Rias in anger.
"I agree Sona. What's to say this man isn't simply pretending to be Kuru-kun to gain some type of fame? Granted you may look like him and have taken his name but that doesn't mean you are him. So please give us a good reason not to erase you from existence for daring to to pretend to be someone we cared very deeply about." said Rias as her powers of Destruction began to envelop her.
Olivia for her part was ready to call the others to come to Kuru's aid but one look at Kuru stopped her. Her [King] was calm despite the situation and that made her wonder if he had indeed lost his mind. Such a thing had more than once been called into question before after all.
While Kuru was calm it was only because he was expecting this kind of outcome despite hoping it wouldn't come to this. Then again it wasn't like he could expect them to just accept his words at face value without a shred of proof after all. Thankfully he had all the proof he needed.
Before Rias and Sona could unleash their wrath upon him Kuru reached into his shirt before pulling out a necklace that upon seeing it stopped Rias and Sona cold as they looked upon the item with shocked eyes as they had seen that very same item many times before worn by only one person.
The necklace in question was on a shining silver chain with a pale horse pendant. While most would see it as nothing more than a necklace Sona and Rias had seen it plety of times to know it was much more than that. That necklace was worn by Kuru religiously and never once left his person. Why that was is because he was the only one able to wear it without it killing them. Only the true Heir of the House of Cerbures was able to wear it.
"B-b-but that's-" stuttered Sona.
"Kuru's necklace." finished Rias as they could only stare at Kuru whom was smiling at them sadly.
Kuru let them take it all in as he remained quiet as he tucked the necklace back into his shirt. He began to get worried though due to their lack of response over the past few minutes. Just as he was about to ask them if they were alright he was surprised as both Heiresses tackled him out of his seat and to the ground with a simultaneous cry of, "KURU-KUN!"
From there came Kuru's struggle to breath as Rias and Sona began to crush him in a death hug as they cried at finding out their long thought dead friend was actually alive. Meanwhile Olivia, Akeno and Tsubaki could only look on. Akeno and Tsubaki were confused by their [Kings] behavior while Olivia looked on with a strained smile. While she understood where they were coming from due to knowing of Kuru's connection to them she didn't appreciate the fact that two attractive women were currently smothering him.
Yet just as the moment began both Rias and Sona stopped and then glared down at Kuru who upon seeing theglares began to sweat nervously.
"Wait a second. If you've been alive all this time then why didn't you come to see us and reveal yourself sooner?" questioned Rias with Sona nodding in agreement.
Now Kuru was practically shaking at the looks his two friends were giving him as they spoke of immense pain heading his way if they didn't get an appropriate answer.
"Heheh, w-w-well you see-" began Kuru before the door to the ORC room burst open to reveal the rest of Kuru's peerage rushing in.
"Boss are you alr-woah." said Tank before seeing the position his ]King] was in with two beautiful women on top of him.
"Well looks like Kuru has been 'making up' quite well with his childhood friends." said Yosuke with a cocky smile.
"Fascinating! In the first day Kuru has managed to reconcile with Rias and Sona and seem to be in the middle of a very tender moment." said Jynx to herself as she began taking notes in her notebook.
"About time." muttered Aila to herself as the ghost of a smile was on her face.
Nico simply nodded in congratulations to Kuru as he held a small smile with his arms crossed.
"It seems our [King] was not in need of our assistance after all." said Hayate with a straight face.
"Good for you Boss." said Ryujin simply.
Kuru just stared at them in surprise for a moment at his peerage's sudden appearance but quickly face palmed. Things just kept escalating quicker and quicker. It was only a matter of time before it reached its zenith and he got royally fucked over.
'This day just keeps getting better and better.' Kuru thought to himself as he prepared to explain everything to Rias and Sona as they would no doubt be demanding answers.
