Mission 01: A Date with a Fallen Angel

*BRRP!-BRRP!-BRRP!-BRRP!-BRRP!-BRRP!-SMASH!*

"Urgh! Damn clock. And I was having a nice dream too."

Tony 'Dante' Redgrave cursed the man who came up with the idea of the infernal machine known as the alarm clock as he sat up in his bed and ran a hand over his face. He had come home late after one of his 'jobs' that he had completed when a group of demons had set up shop in a small bar in one of the back alleys of Kuoh City. The extermination had gone off without a hitch and now there were four less demons lurking around killing humans at will. The only thing he would have really liked is being able to sleep in after coming home at 2 o'clock in the morning on a school night.

Damn school system. It just doesn't respect the efforts of a hard working demon hunter.

Letting out a tired yawn, the young hunter rose from his bed and stretched his tired body, the satisfying sound of popping joints let him know that it was still a little stiff. Speaking of stiff…

"Damn…it's still growing. Really need to measure that thing when I get the chance."

Shrugging off the surprise of his ever growing 'prowess', Dante went over to a nearby desk to retrieve a pair of sweat pants that he had hanging on the chair to cover his bare form. Slipping them on, he noticed that he had a new message on his cell phone if the blinking blue light was any indication. Grabbing the phone, he flipped it open and pressed a few of the buttons to read the message. He grinned when he saw who sent it and why.

Job completion confirmed. Payment has been credited to your account.

-Enzo

"Ah, good ol' Enzo." Dante whispered as he placed the phone back down and went to find a shirt to wear. Enzo was his 'agent' that helped him find work in his specific field of expertise. The man would go out and establish contact with certain individuals or groups that had some kind of demon problem and then offer service to have the problem dealt with. Once negotiations were taken care of, he would forward the details to Dante via phone and in turn, he would go out and deal with the problem. Once the job was complete, Enzo would then collect the payment, take out his share as a 'service fee', and then give the rest to Dante via a private bank account. The money that flowed in was pretty good, considering the dangers his work entailed. But who would he be if was afraid of a little danger.

A whinny little pussy, that's who. And Dante was no pussy!

No sir!

"Dante….Dante."

"Yes, Mrs. Hyoudou?"

"Breakfast is ready. Hurry up and come down to eat"

"Got it."

Letting out another yawn, Dante opened the door to his room and started down the hall towards the stairs that would lead him to the kitchen to eat with his adopted family. However, as he was passing by another door, it suddenly flew open as a person came rushing out of the room.

"Whaaa!"

"Oomph!"

Dante suddenly found himself pushed up against the wall when the person who came out of the room and slammed into him. Shaking his head from the sudden collision, he looked down to find a head of light brown messy hair flowing down the back of a distinctive female form. Distinctive due to the fact that he could feel a pair of soft mounds pressing up against his chest. The girl looked up, his blue eyes met a pair of amber orbs, and he knew immediately who had ran into him.

This girl was Miyoko Hyoudou, the only child of the family.

"Oh, sorry Dante, I wasn't watching where I was going." The 16-year-old girl said with an embarrassed look on her face.

"You know I would actually believe that apology if you weren't blatantly feeling me up right now." Dante replied flatly, as he felt the girls' hands rubbing up and down his torso from under his shirt.

"Can I help it if I can't start the day without feeling your godly abs in the morning…did you get bigger?" Miyoko replied/asked as she continued to feel him up as one of her hands dipped a little low.

"Alright, I think you've sexually harassed me enough for one morning. Let's get down to the kitchen and eat, I'm starving." Dante gently pushed the girl off of him, revealing that she was hearing a pair of form fitting PJ's, and resumed his walk towards the kitchen. Surprisingly, this wasn't the first time that she had ambushed him in the hallway and coped a feel of his body; in fact, it was a bit of a routine with them in the mornings. It didn't really bother him too much; after all, there were worse things in the world than having a pretty girl molest you every morning.

Far, far, far worse.

It didn't take long for the two teens to get down to the dining table and eat with the rest of the family. Dante and Miyoko sat on one side of the table while two adults sat on the other. Mr. Hyoudou was a salary man with messy light brown hair and brown eyes with tan skin. He wore a pair of half-rimmed glasses and was in his mid-forties. Mrs. Hyoudou was a full time housewife with dark brown smooth hair that she kept tied up in a ponytail that traveled down her back. She had the same amber eyes that Miyoko had and a slightly lighter skin tone then her husband. These two were the birth parents of Miyoko and the ones who took Dante in.

So, you're probably wondering how a Yankee like Dante who was born in America ended up in the care of a family in Japan, right?

Well, Dante was born to a woman named Eva Redgrave and a man named Nigel Knight (aka Sparda the Dark Knight). He also had a twin brother named Virgil. Now, one night when he was just a few years old, his father mysteriously vanished, leaving Eva and his sons alone in the world. They made due without their father around, but he could still remember the look of sadness from his mother from time to time as she thought about her missing husband. But one night when he was eight years old, disaster struck the family. A large band of demons who had managed to escape the Abyss attacked the family in their own home. Eva tried to fight back but their numbers were too great and it became apparent that they would overrun them within moments. In a last desperate attempt to save her children, Eva placed them in a magic circle. She made sure that they were both carrying a pair of amulets that they were given for their birthday and she gave Dante a small letter addressed to someone he didn't know. With all the preparations complete, Eva went to activate the circle, just as the demons broke into the room. Dante can't remember much of what happened after that but the next thing he knew, he was lying on the ground in front of a small house in a place he had never seen before. He also found himself alone, without his brother. That was when Mrs. Hyoudou appeared. The housewife had seen an odd light appear and disappear in front of her home and came out to investigate, only to find a very confused and scared Dante sitting on the front lawn. She rushed over to him and checked him over, finding the letter he had on him. When she read the letter, Dante could see a variety of emotions flash across her face. Confusion, shock, worry, sadness and at least, understanding. The housewife took the boy inside and showed the letter to her husband. After he read it, the two stepped into a separate room to speak in private while Dante waited patiently in the living room. A few minutes later, the two adults came back with gentle smiles on their faces and introduced themselves. Turns out the two had known Eva and Nigel from their earlier years. Mrs. Hyoudou had meet Eva when she was working at a café shortly after she graduated high school and the two became fast friends. Soon after Eva introduced her to her lover, Nigel, and little woman stayed close in contact with the two for many years. Coincidentally, it was Nigel who first introduced her to the man who would later become her husband. From that point on, the two couples formed a familial bond with each other to the point where they entered into an agreement where if they were to have children and something were to happen to the parents, the other couple would take them in as if they were their own. The letter was in fact addressed to Mrs. Hyoudou asking her to fulfill the terms of the agreement and take Dante in. So with everything explained, the two asked Dante if he would like to live with them. Dante agreed and that was how the young boy became a part of the Hyoudou family.

Anyways, back to the present and the breakfast table where everyone was enjoying a meal of steamed rice, miso soup, tamagoyaki (rolled omelet) and broiled fish. Dante would have preferred to have pizza, but he guessed he couldn't always get what he wanted, right?

While he was eating, the boy let out another tired yawn. This was something that Mrs. Hyoudou picked up on as she looked over and spotted the slightly dark spots under his eyes.

"Dante, did you stay up late again?"

An acknowledging shrug was her response and she let out a sigh.

"Dante, you shouldn't be staying up so late at night, especially on a school night. You won't be able to focus on your studies if you're too tired and it's bad for your health."

She got another shrug. "Ah, don't worry about me. I've operated on a few hours of sleep before and I'm doing all right in school. I'll manage."

The housewife shook her head slowly. "Please listen to me, Dante; I know that I'm not your real mother, but I can't help but to worry about you. Your mother was a great friend of mine and she entrusted you to me. I want to make sure that you are not only happy and healthy, but ready to take on what is ahead of you."

Mr. Hyoudou decided to add his two cents into the conversation.

"She's right, Dante. I know that we aren't your parents but that doesn't mean we don't care about you. You're still our son and we only want what is best for you."

Dante sighed as put his chopsticks down. "I know, and I really appreciate what you guys have done for me. Hell, if it were any other couple, they probably would have just dumped me in the nearest orphanage and wipe their hands clean of me. And then what would have happened to me? I would have probably turned into some major delinquent. But you two took me in without a second thought. You gave me a roof over my head and three squares a day, that's more than I could have hoped to have if I was on my own. So, I hope that you guys don't think that I don't appreciate you guys because I do. And thank you."

The Hyoudou's smiled at the boy's words, even Miyoko was smiling at her 'big brother', with emphasis on big. It was then that Mrs. Hyoudou glanced at the kitchen clock.

"Oh, look at the time. You two are going to be late if you don't hurry and get ready."

Both Dante and Miyoko nodded and bottomed up their bowls of miso before bolting back upstairs to get dressed. A few minutes later Dante came back down wearing a black blazer over a red shirt and black slacks and shoes. Normally the blazer would be closed up but Dante always kept his open. Miyoko came down a minute later wearing a white long sleeved dress shirt with a black corset which emphasized her border D-cup bust, black cape and red frill skirt with a white lace around the edge and clack dress shoes. After getting their bags and wishing the adults a good day, the two teens left for another day at school.

- Kuoh Academy -

Kuoh Academy. A prestigious school ranked as one of the highest in Japan for its scholastic standards and was recently an all-girls school before it became co-gender. Because of this, the student male to female ratio was rather skewed with the number of female students being higher than the males. The academy is separated into three divisions, a primary school, a high school and a college. Those who graduate from the academy are highly respected and sought after in the professional arena. Which begs to ask how someone like Dante, who had mediocre scores at best, could get himself accepted into such a high-end school. To be honest, he didn't know, nor did he really care about such things. The only thing he really cared about was finding a nice quiet place to rest and maybe catch up on a few Z's. Which is what he was doing at the moment. Dante was reclining in his chair with his feet up on the backrest of the chair in front of him with a math book covering his face as he got a few more winks that he had missed out on.

Too bad some people wouldn't let him sleep in peace.

"Why am I not surprised to find you like this, Redgrave-san?"

Dante casually reached up, lifted the book off his face, and looked up at the person who interrupted his nap. Standing before him was a girl around the age of 17 with bob cut black hair, violet eyes behind red-rimmed glasses and fair skin. She wore the standard girls' uniform, which of course brought attention to her C-cup bust. There was also another girl standing behind her who was a head taller than the former girl was and had knee length black hair, brown eyes behind a pair of square blue-rimmed glasses and fair skin as well. She too wore the girls' uniform with the attention going to her DD-cup bust. These two were Sona Sitori and Tsubaki Shinra, the Student Council President and Vice President respectively.

'I wonder if the guy who designed the girls' uniform wasn't some kind of pervert, I mean c'mon, your eyes are practically drawn to their chests and legs.' Dante wondered as he pulled the book off of his face and gave the too lovely ladies a cool smile. "Yo, prez, what can I do for you this fine morning?"

Sona continued to stare at Dante as he sat up properly. "I wished to speak with you about your attendance here at the school. It has come to my attention that you have yet to join any of the after school club on campus. As you are aware, you are required to join a club in order to pass this year."

Dante let out a sigh. This girl had a knack for trying to get into his business. He looked back up at his senior. "Well, unfortunately I have no intention of joining a club; I'm just not the clubbing kind of guy, unless it's a night club, of course. Besides, I'm a little too busy after school anyways."

Sona adjusted her glasses. "So it would seem. Am I to assume that it is true you are working after school? You are aware that it is against the rules for a student to have a job while attending high school. As such, I politely ask that you quit your job or you will have to face disciplinary action."

Dante just shrugged. "Who knows, maybe it's true, maybe it's not. But it is my own business so if you'll excuse me, I going to find another place to take a nap." And with that, Dante stood up and walked right past Sona and Tsubaki to find some privacy.

Sona made no move to stop him. The reason was because she knew she couldn't. She had been speaking to Dante for over a year now trying to 'reform' him into a proper student. However, every time she tried he would coolly and casually brush her off and walk away. This seemingly disrespectful display against the student council president had earned the boy the title of 'Cool Rebel' by the majority of the student body.

This wasn't the only title he earned as he had gained the admiration from over half of the female students thanks to his roguish good looks and his reputation of being a ladies man. This earned him the title of 'Second Prince of Kuoh.' This of course earned him the ire of most of the male students. Because of his reputation with the ladies, charming good looks, his carefree attitude, and his unexplainable ability to just waltz right out of punishment with the school disciplinarians earned him his most known and well-used title.

'That Damn Yankee.'

After the two girls watched him disappear out the door of the classroom, Tsubaki finally spoke up to her superior.

"Are you just going to keep letting him go like that, Kaichou?"

The student council president used her right hand to adjust her glasses as she closed her eyes and sighed.

"It wouldn't do any good if I did try to go after him. He's not the kind that is concerned with authority. Even if I tried to discipline him, he would just view it as merely an inconvenience."

Tsubaki nodded in understanding. Even though she didn't like it, she had to agree. "What shall we do with him, then?"

"We will continue to observe him, like always, to make sure that he isn't a threat to this school." Sona stated as the two left the classroom and started walking down the hallway.

"It still perplexes me how we still can't seem to be able to identify what manner of creature he is, even though he has been under our observation for over a year."

"Yes. From the first day I could tell that he wasn't human, but even after all this time we haven't come any closer to unraveling the mystery that is Tony Redgrave. Although, it would be easier if our observations weren't limited to the boundaries of the academy."

"You don't think he might be a demon, do you?"

"I doubt it. Some demons are brazen, but they are not that brazen." Sona stated as they made it to the student council room. "Enough about him, though, we have some reports to go over."

"Yes, Kaichou."

Meanwhile, Dante was making his way across the school grounds in search of a nice, quiet spot to resume his little nap. As he walked, his thoughts turned to the two devils that he had just 'escaped'. From the very moment that he stepped into this academy, he had felt them along with several others inside the school. Originally, he was quite curious as to why over a dozen or so devils are doing in a human school, but since they were leaving the student body alone he didn't feel like he needed to try to interfere with their business. So, he would just watch them and leave them be.

Now if only they would let him be.

"What was that, the fifth time in two weeks? I'm starting to think that girl has a thing for me."

"Hehehehehehe…hehehe…hehe."

Dante came to a dead stop as he heard a very distinctive sound that he had come to recognize over the time he's been attending the academy. It was the sound that compelled mothers to check on their daughters and fathers to go find their guns. It was a sound that made any women to instinctively cover themselves in fear. It was a sound of someone was degrading themselves to the lowest form of being there is.

It was the sound of perverted giggling.

"Are those two at it again?" Dante asked himself as he looked over at where the sound was originating. It was coming from the exterior wall of the gym, outside of where the girl's changing room was located. He remembered that it was around this time that a few of the second years had PE class and they would be changing out of their school clothes to put on their uniforms. He also remembered that his 'sister' was in that class.

"Ah, shit. They better be looking at a porn mag."

Deciding to confirm whether the perverts were looking at tits and ass on a paper or not, Dante quietly honed in on the annoying sound to find what he suspected. There, kneeling down and peeping through a small hole in the wall, were the infamous 'Perverted Duo', Matsuda and Motohama. Matsuda was a former jock and current member of the photo club with a buzzed baldhead and a self-proclaimed lolicon while Motohama sported long dark hair and square glasses. The boy had the unusual ability to accurately guess the three sizes of any girl, which earned him the nickname 'Three Size Scouter'. The two had the dopiest smiles on their faces as they watched the girls change into their gym clothes, and they weren't quiet about it either.

"Dude, I can't believe you found this thing. What luck!"

"I know. I call it the 'tit hole'. Oh man, Murayama has such huge jugs."

"33-28-32"

"And Katase's body is just rockin'.

"31-26-31"

"Oh, this is just paradise. Now, if only-"

"KYAA! Miyoko, what are you doing?! Stop that!"

"Oh, Murayama, did your bust get bigger again?"

"Noooo! Stop rubbing them!"

"Miyoko, stop groping my friend!"

"Ah, Katase, Your legs look amazing. Let me feel them."

"IYAAAA!"

"Alright! It's the 'Groping Queen' Miyoko Hyoudou!"

"38-26-32!"

"Oh man, Hyoudou is so sexy. I wouldn't mind tapping that."

"So, you think my 'sis' is sexy, huh?"

"Oh, yeah." The perverted duo's suddenly stopped dead when they heard the distinctive sound of cracking knuckles. Slowly turning around, the two came face-to-face with the menacing visage of Dante as he stood over them like death itself as he glared down at them with a very evil grin on his face.

"Redgrave!" The two shouted as they hugged each other in fear. A most disturbing sight. The hugging I mean.

"Nothing personal guys, but since my 'sis' isn't a fighter, I'm going to have to collect the viewing fee for her."

- One Ass Kicking Later -

Both members of the perverted duo were now sporting some rather impressive bruising and bloody lips and Motohama's glasses were cracked. Both boys were sitting on the ground leaning against each other looking like they had just went ten rounds with a pro boxer without having a break in between rounds. Dante was wiping the imaginary dust off of his hands while he smiled at his handiwork.

"Maybe that'll teach you boys to go snooping around where you don't belong."

"Oh, c'mon man!" Matsuda shouted, somehow ignoring all of the injuries he had just received. "This place is a perv's paradise. All of these amazing beauties walking around and you're not even tempted to see some extra skin? Are you a man or what?"

Dante just scuffed. "Of course I'm a man; I saw proof of that this morning. I just don't need to peek at girls changing to get my rocks off, not when I got girls throwing themselves at me." He replied with a smirk. Truth be told, the girls don't really throw themselves at him. They do like to talk to him, though, but it's just too much fun getting a rise out of these two guys.

"Damn Yankee! Thinking you're all that just because you got half of the girls here swooning all over you. You and that bastard Kiba are hogging all the girls leaving none for the rest of us." Motohama said, deciding to get in on the conversation.

"Because of you two, the rest of us have to find other ways to sate our desire for girls." Matsuda continued with tears in his eyes.

An eyebrow rose on the young hunters face. "And one of those ways happens to be using a small hole in the wall to peek on the girls in gym as they change like you did just now?"

"Damn right!" The two shouted in unison.

Dante stared at them for a second until his evil grin returned to his face, making the two boys become extremely nervous. He then spoke out loud. "Well, I must say that is rather interesting. What do you think about that statement…ladies?"

Seeing him look over to his left, the boys slowly followed his line of sight and their faces drained of color. Standing off to the side was the Kendo Club members with Murayama and Katase standing at the front of the pack. All of the girls were glaring at the two offending boys and Murayama spoke.

"I think we would like to have a little talk with them in private. Would you be a darling and leave us be, Dante-kun?

The hunter just shrugged. "I don't mind. Just make sure to leave them in one piece."

"No promises."

And so, Dante made his exit and left the two perverts and a pack of angry, bokken-wielding girls alone. Fifteen seconds later the air was filled with the sound of wood cracking against flesh and a few high-pitched screams. Dante chuckled as he listened to the sounds fade away as he moved across the academy grounds.

'Ah, it's always fun to get the drop on those two. Now, back to finding my napping spot.'

Dante continued to walk around when he suddenly had this feeling as if he was being watched. Stopping in his tracks and looking around, he eventually caught a flash of red in his vision and turned to find a certain pair of students looking at him from a second floor window of what he knew was the old school building back when the academy was girls only. He recognized first girl as Rias Gremory, the president of the Occult Research Club and one of the famed 'Two Great Ladies of Kuoh Academy'. The girl had crimson red hair that flowed down to her thighs, teal green eyes, fair skin and a buxom figure with an incredible bust. The girl standing next to her was Akeno Himejima, the vice president of the Occult Research Club and the second member of the Two Great Ladies. She had long raven hair tied up in a ponytail that ran down to her feet, violet eyes, fair skin and was just a buxom as Rias, though she did have the bigger bust out of the two.

As he stood there, his blue eyes locked gazes with Rias's green eyes and the two stared at each other for well over a minute. It wasn't until Dante smiled and lazily waved at the red head that Rias broke out of her stare. She gave a look of surprise from the gesture before returning it with her own smile and wave. Finished with his little 'hello', the young hunter turned to resume his walk while the two girls continued to watch him leave until he was out of sight.

"That was him, wasn't it, Buchou?" Akeno asked her red headed friend and superior.

"Yes, Tony Redgrave, though I hear he goes by the name of Dante."

"Dante? Like the character in the Divine Comedy?"

"Indeed. Though unlike the character, he is far from human."

"Yes, I felt his aura too, but what is he exactly? I've never felt anything like him before."

"He is a mystery; that much is certain. More than once, I have wondered why my brother gave him a scholarship if he is so unknown to us. I've asked him if he knew anything but he keeps telling me to not worry about it and let him be." Rias spoke as she went back to a nearby couch and sat down behind a chessboard.

Akeno walked up to stand by her Buchou's side. "Sirzechs-sama granted him a scholarship? That's surprising."

"Indeed, which makes him all the more interesting to watch." The redhead said as she picked up a pawn and moved it into striking distance of the enemy king. "Checkmate."

Rias stood up and moved away from the board as Akeno leaned over to study it and see that she was indeed locked in checkmate. "Oh, I lost again."

"Your trap was very easy to see through." Rias commented as she started to strip out of her clothes. She started with her cape and then unbuttoned the black outer corset and laid them both on the backrest of a nearby chair.

"Sorry, I did my best to make it harder on you." Akeno responded as she watched her superior strip off her skirt, revealing a pair of rather racy black panties.

"Thanks, I look forward to next time." The redhead spoke as she removed her white dress shirt showing off the black bra that matched her panties. With a sigh, she proceeded to unclasp her bra and remove the article, revealing her large breasts that were capped by a pair of small, pink nipples. The last thing to go was the black panties, which she stripped off leaving only her long hair to cover her perfect, peach-shaped derriere. No completely devoid of clothes, the redhead walked a short distance to a shower that was installed in the building. She stepped inside, pulled the curtain close, turned on the tap and allowed the hot water to cascade over her shapely form. As she felt her body relax under the flowing water, her thoughts turned back to the silver haired male she was talking about minutes before. He was quite handsome, and she could tell that he possessed a good amount of physical strength with how he filled out his uniform, but what really caught her attention was his eyes. Those blue orbs held a great power in them, the like she had never seen before. This greatly intrigued the teen and she vowed right there that she would unravel the mystery that was Tony 'Dante' Redgrave.

- Streets of Kuoh -

- Later that Day-

It was after school and our favorite hunter found himself wandering the streets as the sun was starting to make its descent below the horizon, bathing the city in golden light. The young man eventually made his way onto a bridge that span across the large roadway below. As he stops and leans against the railing and gazes out across the city, his thoughts turned back to the girl he had locked gazes with earlier. Rias Gremory was, by many people's opinion, the perfect girl. She was beautiful, smart, friendly, kind and compassionate. She was the kind of girl that parents would love for you to introduce them to as a girlfriend, and he was sure that many a boy has tried to court her, with obviously little success. Of course, Dante knew the reason for that. Not only was the girl from an apparently rich family, which put the girl out of reach of almost all the boys at school, but she wasn't even human. She was a devil, one of the two main devils that called Kuoh Academy their home in fact. Both Rias and Sona had that air of nobility around them, so it was easy to tell how they were raised. He also knew that, just like Tsubaki, Akeno Himejima was Rias's direct underling, and it wasn't because she was the VP of the ORC. Thinking about the club also made him think about the two other members of the club he knew about.

The first was a second year by the name of Kiba Yuuto, a pretty boy who shared Dante's title of 'Prince of Kuoh.' If Dante held one-half of the admiration of the girls at school, then Kiba held the other half. The other was a petite first year named Koneko Toujou. Known as the school's 'Mascot' Koneko held the affection of almost the entire student body.

Both of them were also devils.

It seemed like a contradiction for him to coexist with not just one, but two groups of devils, considering his line of work, but so long as they don't go causing trouble then he had no reason to interfere with their affairs.

Despite what some people might think, he actually enjoyed having a little peace in his life.

"Um, excuse me?"

Dante's inner thoughts were broken by the voice of a young girl. The hunter turned to find a rather attractive girl around his age with long, raven hair and violet eyes, fair skin and a heart shaped face. She was wearing a magenta school uniform with a crest that held the letter P sown over her right breast, which by the way was a rather impressive bust, and a short green skirt.

Seeing as how she now had the boy's attention, the girl nervously spoke. "A-are you by chance, Tony Redgrave?"

Staring at the girl for a moment, Dante gave the girl a charming smile. "I am, and who is the sweet thing that's asking?"

The girl blushed a little before speaking. "Um, I-I'm Yuuma Amano. I, uh, I was wondering…are you seeing anyone right now?"

An eyebrow raising in surprise from the question, the boy answered. "No, not really. Why?"

"Well, I was wondering if you would, um, go out with me."

The hunter said nothing as he continued to stare at the girl, making Yuuma a bit uncomfortable. Just when she started to think that he was just going to flat out turn her down, a grin appeared on his face. "Sure, why not. I'll go out with you."

"Really?" Yuuma's face lit up with a beautiful smile. "That's great! I'm so glad. So then, would you like to meet up at the mall on Sunday?"

"Sure, sounds good to me."

"It's a date then." The girl then turned and started skipping away. She got halfway across the bridge before she turned back and called out to him. "I'm really glad you said 'yes.'"

As the girl left, Dante leaned back against the rail and let out a sigh. "Well, that was interesting." The boy then pushed himself off the railing and started on his way home. As he walking, he muttered to himself. "Now I wonder what a fallen angel could want with me."

Unseen by the two, however, a certain petite first year had been hiding nearby and had seen and heard everything said between the two. With this knowledge in her possession, the girl headed back towards the academy to make her report.

- Kuoh Academy -

- Thirty Minutes Later -

"I see. So they're making a move." Rias said after listening to the first year's report. The young redhead was sitting in a dark room lit only by a set of candles sitting beside a chessboard with her vice president standing by her side.

"But why would the fallen angels make a move now? And why him? Do they think he is some kind of threat to them?" Akeno asked as she placed a single slender finger upon her chin in thought.

"That must be the case; otherwise they wouldn't have even bothered with him. It would seem as though there may be much more to Dante then we originally believed."

"What shall we do about it, Buchou?"

Rias hummed in thought for a moment as she contemplated her actions before she spoke. "Let's keep an eye on them. This will be a good chance to see how he reacts to the supernatural."

"And if the fallen end up killing him?" Akeno asked.

"Then we'll just have to make preparations in the event that does happen. Either way, things will at least get a little more interesting."

- Outlet Mall -

- Sunday -

The day of Dante's date with Yuuma finally arrived and our favorite hunter found himself standing in front of a large clock as he waited for his date to arrive. The boy was wearing a black hooded leather jacket with red lining and red leather sown on the ends of the sleeves (A/N: DmC reboot jacket only shorter), black shirt and dark grey jeans. He also carried a large gig bag on his back. The boy turned to look up at the clock behind him to check the time.

"Hmm, should be here any minute now."

"Here, take a flyer." A voice spoke up to his right and he turned in time for someone to put a piece of paper in his hand. Blinking a couple of times in confusion before he looked at the person who gave it to him. The person happened to be a woman with brown hair that oddly enough resembled a pair of bat wings, brown eyes, and fair skin. She wore a red dress that covered her large bust and a pair of bat wings on her back, a short white skirt, calf-high boots, a black choker and a set of golden bracelets on her wrists. She was carrying a large red bag and as Dante looked at her, she gave him a smile, then turned, and walked away without a word.

Dante watched her for a moment and muttered, "Well that's kind of weird." He then looked at the paper she had given him and looked at it more closely. "Your wish will be granted, huh...wait…this is a-"

"Dante!"

The hunter looked over to see Yuuma running up to him. She was wearing a light purple blouse over a black dress and carrying a small purse. As the girl neared him, Dante quickly shoved the flyer into his pocket and turned to the girl with a smile. "Ah, you made you made it."

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Dante." The girl said as she came to a stop in front of him.

"Nah, don't worry about it." The boy replied.

Yuuma smiled brightly until she noticed the bag on his back. "What's that, Dante?"

"Oh this?" Dante motioned his head at the bag. "Just something I thought I'd bring along, just in case things go well with our date."

"Are you going to play for me?"

"Well, later on I might put on a little show for you."

Yuuma seemed really happy to hear that as she smiled brightly. After some more small talk between the two, they decided to get their date going and headed out.

- Later -

It had been a rather pleasant day for the two as they had spent the majority of the day walking around different stores and shops that lined the walkways of the mall. They had looked at a variety of items including clothing, jewelry, music and entertainment. At one point Yuuma even had Dante buy her a little pink wristband to wear. At one point, they had stopped a sweets shop and Yuuma indulged herself in a chocolate parfait while Dante had a strawberry sundae.

All in all, the date was a rather huge success.

Now, the couple found themselves at a city park with a large water fountain in the center with the sun casting its evening rays down on them. If anyone were to ask, one would say that this was the perfect atmosphere for some romance.

"I really had a great time today, Dante." Yuuma said as they walked side by side through the park.

"Yeah, I enjoyed it myself." Dante commented as they neared the fountain.

Suddenly, Yuuma ran out in front of the boy and turned back to him once she came to the fountain. "Can I ask you to do something, in honor of our date and to commemorate this special moment?"

Dante's eyebrow rose up in curious intrigue. "And just what would you like me to do? You want that show I had promised you?"

Yuuma giggled as she slowly approached him. "No, it's nothing like that."

"Oh, then what is it?"

Yuuma came to a stop right in front of him with her head down, then she let out a chuckle and looked up at Dante, but her eyes had a very sinister look to them.

"Would you die for me?"

"Hmm?" Dante blinked at the odd question. "I'm sorry, what was that?"

Yuuma then leaned over and spoke directly into Dante's ear. "I want you to die for me." Yuuma then laughed darkly as she jumped back and started to transform. Dante watched in amazement as Yuuma's clothes were shredded by an invisible force, leaving her completely bare and her nude form exposed. Her body then grew in height and proportion and a pair of black feathery wings grew from her back. After the wings came out, a black liquid materialized and spread across certain parts of her body. When her transformation ended, Yuuma had grown a whole head taller than what she was, had crow-like wings, and was wearing a get up strangely reminiscent to what a dominatrix would wear.

Strangely enough, it was kind of a turn on.

(A/N: It's a little hard for me to describe her clothing but everyone has seen her outfit so you already know what she's wearing.)

Yuuma stood there with a grin as she saw Dante's shocked expression on his face, completely convinced that he was paralyzed with awe and fear. "You know, Dante, I really had fun today. You were so nice to me and all, but, unfortunately, we're going to have to end this little play here. So, what do you say we-"

"OH, YEAH! NOW THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT! WHOOO!"

"Wh-What!?" Yuuma was shocked at Dante's sudden outburst, not at all expecting him to yell out like that.

"Yeah, this rocks! Who knew that my girl was a stripper! Man, is it my birthday and I didn't know about it?"

"What?! What are you talking about, you imbec-"

"Hey, listen, I know we haven't known each other for very long, but you think I could get a lap dance?"

Yuuma nearly tripped on her own feet hearing that question. Who did he think she was? Did he even realize what kind of situation he was in right now? She was there to kill him and he's asking for a lap dance? Regaining her balance, she glared at the man in anger as evidence of her red face.

Or it could be from embarrassment. That was possible.

"You Insolent Fool! How Dare You! Do you even know who I am?! I am the Fallen Angel Raynare, and I will not tolerate such vulgar talk from an imbecile like you!" The now identified Raynare shouted as she extended her hand and what appeared to be a spear made of red light materialized in her palm. "Now DIE!" Raynare reared her arm back and threw the spear at Dante.

The boy just continued to smile as he watched the spear of light hurdling towards him, but just as it was about to reach him, Dante suddenly grabbed the gig bag from off of his back and used it to swat the light spear away, causing it to go sailing off to the side and bury itself in a concrete wall.

"What?!" Raynare shouted as she watched her target swat her spear away as if it was a fly, his smirk still present on his face. "Wh-What the hell?!"

"Well, that was easy." Dante remarked as he straightened himself back up and sat the gig bag down on its bottom. "So, I guess we've finally come to the end of our little date, and I must say, I think it went pretty well. So, how about I put on that show I promised you."

Raynare growled as she glared at the boy before her. "I don't give a damn about your little guitar show."

"Are you sure? Because I have no doubt that, it will be the most awesome show you will ever see. And one more thing." Dante reached for the bag's zipper and pulled it down. Raynare was about to retort, but her words died in her throat as she watched as the gig bag fell away to reveal the contents wasn't a guitar, but a sword.

A Huge Sword!

Dante hefted the large skeletal claymore on to his back and held it with his right hand as he grinned at the fallen angel. "Who said it was a guitar show?"

Raynare gritted her teeth as she generated another spear and threw it. Dante watched the spear get closer and just like with his bag, he swung his sword around and deflected the spear away. Growling, Raynare summoned two more spears and hurled them at her foe, but these were also deflected.

"C'mon, is that all you got?" Dante taunted as he made the 'come here' gesture.

Raynare roared as she summoned another spear but this time, she flew at Dante with the spear poised to impale the boy. Sparks exploded in the air as the light spear meet the claymore and the two beings pushed against each other's weapon. Raynare disengaged from the lock and tried to knock the boy down with the side of her spear. Dante leaned back as the light weapon passed over his head. Raynare then tried to sweep his legs but Dante simply jumped over the spear. She then tried to hit him in the side just to be blocked again by the claymore. The close quarters combat continued for some time as Dante continued to block, duck, jump and weave through Raynare's attacks.

"Stand Still, Damn You!" Raynare shouted in frustration as she thrust her weapon with all of her strength.

"Now why would I do that?" Dante casually replied as he sidestepped the lung, but because Raynare had but her all in the move, she ended up over exerting and sailed right past the boy. Seeing an opening he couldn't refuse, the boy raised his left arm high in the air and brought it down hard.

*SLAP!*

"KYAAAA!"

Raynare found herself bouncing around on her feet as she grabbed her now red buttocks where Dante had slapped her. As she jumped around in pain, it did very wonderful things to her barely covered breasts, at least in Dante's eyes.

"Now this is what I call a show." Dante remarked as his eyes followed the bouncing twin orbs.

Hey, he may not be a pervert like the duo are, but he was still a red-blooded male.

Raynare finally stopped her bouncing as she rubbed her swelling behind and glared angrily at her foe. "You slapped my ass"

"Yeah, and I got to say, it's a pretty tight ass it is. You sure I can't have that lap dance now?"

Raynare saw red as she took to the air with her large wings and started hurling light spears at Dante, who just kept knocking them away.

"Man, you really are a one-trick pony." He commented as he slapped one more spear away. "How about I show you what a little variety looks like." Dante said as he cocked his sword back with his right arm and then flung the sword through the air, the blade spinning around as it traveled straight at the fallen angel. Raynare's eyes widened as she watched the spinning blade get closer and flapped her wings hard to lift herself out of the swords path, allowing it to sail past under her. Raynare laughed as she settled back to the spot in the air she had just occupied.

"You fool. You just lost your only weapon. Now I can kill you easily!" Raynare cackled as she made another spear and was preparing to throw it.

Dante lifted his right hand and used his finger to point at something behind her while he made a high-low whistle to catch her attention. Raynare was confused with the gesture until she heard something slicing through the air behind her. Imagine her surprise when she spun around to see the very sword that she had dodged just seconds ago coming back towards her. She tried to dodge the blade again, but this time she was not quite fast enough to get out of the way completely and ended up with a few of her feathers shaved off by the spinning blade. As Raynare tried to recover from the close shave, the claymore continued to spin through the air towards its master until it was almost upon him when he simply reached out with his hand and grabbed the hilt, stopping the blade cold.

"Wh-What the hell was that?!" Raynare shouted as she tried to get her heart rate back down to normal levels.

"That, my dear, was a little move I like to call Round Trip." Dante responded as he rested the large sword over his shoulder. "And this…" Dante lifted the blade, flipped it around in a reverse grip, and held it out behind him. Raynare's eyes widened as she watched arcs of red lightning dance across the blade as it started to glow red. A second later, the entire blade was humming with energy. "…this is Drive!" With that, Dante swung the blade around in a large arc as the energy stored in the sword was released. A crescent wave of red energy shot from the blade and sped through the air headed right at the fallen angel. Raynare could only stare in shock as the wave of destructive energy barreled toward her. However, just as it was about to make contact with her, the wave miraculously tilted to the side and passed her by with only inches to spare. Raynare's hair whipped around in the wake of the wave as she heard a series of crashes could be heard from behind her. Slowly, she turned to look behind her and gasped when she saw that the top of the trees behind her had been sliced cleanly off. Her skin turned pale white was she realized that she would have been those trees if the attack had connected with her.

"Would you look at that? I missed." Dante commented as he hefted the blade back over his shoulder.

Raynare's mind was a maelstrom of thoughts as she turned back to look at her opponent. The idea that this boy held so much power was maddening. Just where did his power come from? Could it be his weapon?

"That sword...is it a Sacred Gear?"

Dante blinked. "Sacred Gear?" He rubbed his chin as he rolled the name around in his head for a moment. "Nope, no clue what that is. No, this little beauty here is my own personal Devil Arm, Rebellion."

That term got her attention real quick. "Devil Arm? That's impossible! The only way to acquire one of those is to slay a high-level demon and then subjugate its soul. There's no way you're that strong!"

"Maybe I am, maybe I'm not. Who knows?" Dante coolly replied as he took a few steps forward while twirled the blade in his hand. "Well, sweetheart, it's been really fun, but what do you say we call it a day? I got school in the morning."

Things were not going anywhere close to the way Raynare had planned. She had expected the boy to be putty in her hands. He should have been completely bewildered by her transformation and defenseless against her power. Instead, she was the one who was outmatched in this fight. She knew that she couldn't take him as she was, so there was only one thing left for her to do.

Run like a bitch.

"This isn't over, you hear me! One day, I'll make you pay for humiliating me!" Raynare shouted out as she rapped herself in her wings and disappeared in a flurry of feathers.

"Call me!" Dante shouted out to her while making a phone gesture with his left hand. "Well, that was rather fun. Not a bad way to end a date with a sexy fallen angel. Too bad I couldn't get my lap dance, though." The boy walked back to where his gig bag lay and then put Rebellion back inside before zipping it up and slinging it back over his shoulder. With nothing left to do, he started to make his way back home. He was unaware that a pair of small red eyes belonging to a small bat had watched the entire fight and had witnessed his incredible powers. With Dante leaving, the little bat took to the air and headed straight towards Kuoh Academy.

- Hyoudou Residence -

- Later that Night -

Dante laid in bed as he stared at the flyer her had gotten from that girl back at the mall as he gazed at the glyph drawn on the center of the paper. He was going over the day's events in his head as he pondered on what he had gotten himself into. He had been targeted by a fallen angel, but for what reason was what he didn't know. He knew all about the supernatural world thanks to his profession as a demon hunter, but up until now, the three main factions have left him alone. So, what would cause one of them to try to kill him?

"Maybe I pissed them off. Can't remember doing anything to one of them before, though." Dante mused as he continued to stare at the piece of paper in his hand. The picture in the center of the paper held a series of elaborately drawn concentric circles with a symbol in the center of the circles. In between the outer and second circles held six sets of identical characters of some odd language. He knew what it was immediately, having seen them at some of the jobs he had in the past. It was a summoning circle, used to call forth the beings of the supernatural world from where ever they reside. He had seen a few of them used by idiots who thought that they could summon and control the demons of the Abyss and try to use them for their own purposes.

Most of the time, though, the result of the summoning results in the poor fool getting immediately eaten by whatever he called forth from the Abyss, and then Dante would plug the thing with a few rounds and skewer it and call it a day.

This one, however, didn't appear to summon a demon from the Abyss. IF Dante had to guess, he would have to say that this particular circle called forth something else. He didn't know what, but he knew a way to find out, without using it of course. It was a neat little trick he discovered when he tried to study a magic circle earlier in his life by accident, but it served him well when trying to decipher such things, although it always left him with a bit of a headache afterwards, but you know what they say, no pain no gain.

Looking directly at the center of the circle, Dante allowed his vision to lose focus. Everything blurred for a moment as he concentrated on the circle, but at the same time he let his mind go blank, focusing on everything, but at the same time, nothing. If he had to describe what it was like, he would have to say it was like taking the world around you into your hands but letting it flow through your fingers like water. An odd analogy, yes, but it worked as the image on the paper began to distort and change. Like a form of dyslexia, the circles began to lift off of the paper and spin around as the individual lines pulled away from each other and move around in a bizarre dance. The characters in the circles started to shift and merge until they became characters that could actually be read. When the shifting stopped, he was able to read five different words.

SUMMONING

DEVIL

GREMORY

DESIRE

CONTRACT

So, this was a devil's contract summoning circle. Now it made sense, this is how devils gain power. They use the desires of humans to empower themselves as they fulfill the terms of the contract. Well, at least he wouldn't have to worry about the summoner being devoured. That being said, there was just one word that got his attention the most.

Gremory.

"Wait a minute, the only devil I know that has the name of Gremory is Rias. Is this her summoning circle?" Dante asked as he sat up. Unfortunately, he had forgotten the first rule of using his decoding vision; never change your perspective before canceling the vision. Therefore, the circle snapped back into its original shape and the room shifted back into focus instantly, causing his brain to jolt at the surge of information.

The result? A massive headache.

"Ah, damn it!" The boy cursed as he grabbed his head and tried to get his migraine under control. God, it felt worse than having a hangover.

He should know.

Shaking his head to clear it, he took one last look at the summoning circle before tossing the paper onto the desk nearby. "Well, no sense worrying about it now. I'll look into it tomorrow." The boy then proceeded to strip himself of his clothing and get himself comfortable in bed. It looked like he was going to have to pay a certain redhead a visit.

- Later that Night -

The entire house was dark and quiet as the residents were all deep asleep. Dante himself laid on his back with his eyes shut and his breathing deep and even as he slept, his right arm being used to support his head. The room was dark save for the sliver of moonlight that peaked in from between the window curtains. That changed, however, when the room was bathed in a red haze as a magic circle appeared on the floor of the room. The circle stayed stationary for a moment until it started to rise in the air. From within the boundary of the circle, a figure started to materialize following the circles progress as it rose up from the floor. That figure revealed itself to be Rias Gremory dressed in her school uniform. Rias had her eyes closed as she waited for the magic she used to teleport herself to disperse itself. When the light completely died down, she slowly opened her teal green eyes…

*C-Click!*

…and they widened as she suddenly found herself staring down the barrel of a large handgun and a pair of blue eyes looking down the sight at her.

Dante stared at the intruder as he kept his gun trained right between her eyes and smirked at having caught the devil off guard.

"So, to what do I owe the honor of having a beautiful devil girl like you coming in here at this time of the night?"

[Author's Notes]

Well, this is the first official chapter of The Nephilim of Kuoh Academy. As you can see, there are a few things that are different from Highschool DxD canon. First off is the fact that Issei has been replaced by a female version of himself. This is because it was the only way I could progress with this story in the direction I want it to go. This was one of the first major hurtles I encountered making this story and the only way I could get over it was to change his gender from male to female. She is still a pervert, but she won't be taking the flak for it like her male counterpart. Her personality is like a raging bisexual Risa from To-love-ru.

The second thing you guys will notice, and some of you would flame me over, is the fact that none of the devils or fallen could determine what manner of being Dante is. There is a reason for this as one; it adds an element of mystery for our heroine, Rias, which will cause her to be drawn to him, and two; he is a type of being they have never encountered before and therefore, would not be able to determine what he is. Think about it this way, each being in existence, whether it be a devil, angel, fallen, god, yokai, or human, has an aura, which possess a unique wavelength. Now, a supernaturally attuned being can determine what someone is by feeling out the aura and determine what wavelength they possess. Now, since Dante is a Nephilim, he will possess a wavelength that no one has seen before. Ergo, no one can tell what he is. Understand?

Now, many of you have stated in your reviews that I shouldn't have Dante reincarnated as a devil. Fellows, there is a reason why I named this story the Nephilim of Kuoh Academy. If he is reincarnated as a devil, then he wouldn't be a Nephilim, now would he?

Will this stop Rias from trying? No, it won't. But I have come up with a nice little work around where he will be deeply involved with the affairs of her and her peerage, so he can still be a part of the group, even if he's not in the peerage.

The battle with Raynare was a bit one sided, right? Well, in hindsight, the fallen were not all that strong, so I can see Dante totally trolling Raynare in the fight.

Does Dante have a sacred gear? That is a surprise. I will tell you that he will establish himself as the badass demon hunter he is in this story.

One more thing, you guys have probably noticed that I removed the name 'Hyoudou' from Dante's name. This is because it would have caused some flaming later on as the story progressed, so I changed it up from him being adopted to simply being taken in.

Anyways, read, rate and review.

Peace.

5/14/2017 – Changed Issei's name to Miyoko to suite the gender swap.
