Chapter 2

friend or foe.

disclaimer: I do not own High School DxD

"Where am I?" I say without a moments hesitation, still a little scared from the... dream... vision... memory? And angry from being bashed over the head with a rock.

"You are at my place of residence." Azazel said, with a little bit of regret in his voice. "And I only thought you had Vargel, I didn't know you were the wielder of Arlina too."

"Well, I guess I hid my self well then." Arlina said, with a hint of doubt in her voice.

"Whoa, hold up, for one, how am I supposed to know where you live!?" I said, Noticing the regret in Azazel's words. "I don't even know who you two are." I say referring to Azazel an Crowgar. "And two, yeah I guess I do have a second.. uh... what are you two called?" I asked, calming down a little, yet also a little confused as to what I summoned.

"We are sacred gears." Arlina and Vargel say at the same time.

"Well then." He says as he clasps his hands together. "I think there are a couple people who would like to meet you." As he says that, 2 pretty looking women step out of the shadows. Provoking a jaw drop from me.

"Hello my name is Vali" says the shorter of the 2. sparking a faint memory in my head, as I visibly wince in pain. "Whats the matter, did I say something wrong." She Says teasingly. I give a pained smile, and shake my head.

"And my name is Kalawarner, I would like to have a sparring match with you If you don't mind." She says, a little excited at the idea, While sparking some anger out of me when she said her name.

"Sure, but where is Crowgar, I'd like to talk with him." I say, not realizing what I just said.

"He's on an errand, he should be back within the hour." Azazel says, surprised at my question. "In the mean time how bout we go out side for that sparring match."

As we walk out the door, Vali asks me "can you tell me why you winced back there."

"I'm not entirely sure." I say, caught of guard as I'm walking faster to catch up with the others "I just feel like something's wrong is all." I say as I remember a line from somewhere in the back of my mind. "I wanted to try defeating god." I whisper, making sure nobody herd me.

A couple minutes later.

"So Hurryon, want me to tell you what I can do." Arlina says pulling my consciousness into a dream state. "Ah, this is better." She says as a couch appears next to her. I then take my time to look at my surroundings; It's a field of red and purple flowers, she has beautiful long purple hair and red eyes, and she's wearing a dark blue dress with silver highlights. "I see that you are admiring the flowers." She says with a sly grin. before I can speak, she says. "don't worry, Vargel's got you covered. Come, sit." I do so, and she sits down next to me. "my name is Arlina the dragon of intellect."

"I guess that means that you know a bunch of sword styles according to what I summoned." I say as I remember the sword.

Sigh. "Yes, you would be correct, I'm also able to change forms depending on what you need at the time." She says as she rests her head on my shoulder. As I look over, I have an almost clear view of her cleavage. "Are you alright I sense some uneasiness from you?" she says moving closer.

"Oh I.. I.. I'm alright." I say trying to hide the fact that my nose is bleeding.

"Kukuku. I think I've had my fun with you, I cant keep you all to myself now can I." She says,as she kisses my forehead. At that moment I feel something unlock, and I'm pushed backward with a sudden look of surprise on my face. "I'm looking forward to what you can do with my power." And at that moment I'm left thinking (What the, she freaking teased me.)

5 minutes later

"we are here now kid... I don't think we got your name did we?" Azazel says with an awkward smile.

"It's ok, my name is..." I trail off as I can't remember. A name pops into my head. "Ah, It's Hurryon Dragon." I say with confidence.

"Oh, well then Hurryon, let us hope you can do well against her." he says as he summons a magic field. "this will be a no holds barred all out match, Hurryon you need to try to touch her in any way possible in order to win." He says, stating the rules of the match.

"OK, im ready whenever." I say readying my sacred gears.

"Ok, Hurryon be ready." Kalawarner says,readying her whip.

"3... 2... 1... GO" Vali says, releasing a shot of energy into the air.

Immediately I dash towards Kalawarner expecting her to dodge out of the way, instead she uses the whip to knock me out of the way.

"huh, he went straight for the dash" Azazel says, in awe at my first move.

As I turn around and run, circling Kalawarner, I summon my sacred gears. "Sacred gears, serpent's bite, blade shift." I concentrate on what I need at the moment and get a rapier for my effort. In the next moment I run at her again this time using a multi thrust technique to shoot off concentrated energy spikes at her. She tries to dodge them all, but one catches her off guard in the shoulder.

"ha-ha. Now's my chance." I say as I rush past her thinking I was going to touch her, but end up grabbing air. "Dang it I missed." I say as I get my backside whipped.

After about 6 or 7 minutes of running around and getting my ass whooped, That's when I reach around and grab the end of the whip, swinging myself around a nearby pole, (using the centrifugal force to my advantage), 3 times I let go whipping out my wings and rushing at her with full force, along with a fire in my eyes that has the intent to kill.

"Hmm, Its interesting for someone so new to battle to have that kind of fire in their eyes." as Azazel says this he steps between me and Kalawarner and seemingly freezes me in place and says; "i think you need to go somewhere to train." as he hands me a card that I somehow recognize as a summoning circle.

And with that, we return to Azazel's place. Just as we walk in I notice something. the bed I was laying on has been torn apart with certain things out of place like an id and a wallet and... is that a 3ds. Azazel sees this and asks me "do you have someone after you?" we walk over to the strewn about belongings.

"I don't think so." I say, a little confused. Then I think back to the fight I had with Crowgar "Are you thinking what..." I trail of as I see my name on the id, something about it seems off. I pick it up and turn it over in my hand. A message starts playing.

"what do we have here, seems Azazel found a new game to play." an unknown voice resounded throughout the room. "And it seems our little transfer has worked."

Just then Crowgar stepped out of a doorway on the other side of the room. "Hello..." we all look at him with dead panned eyes. "what, bad timing."

"Now, you can ether choose to ally your self with me." someone can be heard saying (dramatic pause) in the background. "or go and be a bloody hero."

"I'm going to choose... hero." I say as I swipe the option as it floats above the card.

"Gottverdamnt, well I guess zat idea is out ze window. Goodbye."
