Hola Amigos! Here's a new story for you guys. I'll talk more about it at the end
"You've got to be shitting me Zeref."
The man named Zeref put a hand to his face and sighed.
"No Natsu, I am not 'shitting' you. This is serious."
The demon named Natsu jumped up, clearly exasperated at Zeref's words.
"This is some lower level demon shit! I'm the fucking prince of hell! The most fearsome demon! I'm not supposed to go infiltrate a catholic school!"
Zeref looked up at his younger brother with a fearsome grin, one that only meant bad news. Natsu blanched before him.
"Oh? Then tell me what it is that the prince of hell is supposed to be doing."
"Uh, well," Natsu racked his brain quickly, trying to come up with an answer that Zeref would like. "Oh! Sorting souls into the different levels of hell and preparing their punishment."
Zeref seemed to agree with his response and Natsu relaxed a bit. Man I'm a genius, Natsu thought.
"Have you done any of that?"
The pink haired demon tensed up at his older brother's words, realizing that he had, in fact, not done that. In like a really long time. Natsu cringed.
Zeref took a deep breath before he screamed,
"THEN START ACTING LIKE A PRINCE AND DO YOUR DUTIES. SINCE YOU'VE BEEN IRRESPONSIBLE AND BRASH LATELY THIS IS YOUR PUNISHMENT. NOW, I WILL NOT TELL YOU AGAIN. AS THE KING OF HELL, I ORDER YOU TO INFILTRATE THAT STUPID LITTLE CATHOLIC SCHOOL."
The receiver of the scolding held his breath before he coughed out like a smoker. He waved his hand in front of his nose before narrowing his eyes at the black haired man.
"Man Zeref, you've got to control those death waves of yours. This whole place smells like a bag of old farts."
Zeref's eye twitched before he unleashed his wrath again.
"GET THE FUCK OUT RIGHT NOW!"
The demon held up his hands before unfolding his wings and flying away.
"Geeze, I get it," he huffed, blowing his bangs out of his eyes. "Stupid fucking lower demon job."
"Hey Makarov, I don't mean to be disrespectful in any way but wouldn't this job be more appropriate for someone that isn't a keeper?" Asked a chocolate eyed blonde.
A short old man looked up at the woman and smiled softly.
"Usually yes, but I need someone to do this job exceptionally well. And in this case, it's you that I need Lucy."
The blonde smiled at the praise, happy that she got recognized after all the years of hard and grueling work. Who knew heaven could be so exhausting? She sure hadn't.
"Well ok, I mean, if you think I'm the person that's best suited for the job then I don't mind."
The old man looked at the blonde blankly before his eyes widened and he waved his hands.
"Oh no it's not that! There are plenty of people more suited for this job child, it's just that they're on other missions. You're just better than a rookie is all."
Lucy's eyes twitched and her wings shed a few stress feathers. Makarov was sure he could see steam coming out of her ears.
"I can't believe you're god. Rude, old ass pervert" She mumbled.
"What was that child."
"Just give me the damn location." She huffed.
The old man chuckled at the blonde's irritated expression before he told her the location of her mission site. With that, the woman flew away.
Back on earthland, there was a small country called Fiore. Inside of the small country was an even smaller city named Magnolia. Magnolia was a diverse town in the sense that it was filled with both sinners and saints. In magnolia, however, was a prestigious Catholic school called St. Mavis Academy. The school, just like the city, was full of both sinners and saints, as you didn't necessarily have to be catholic to go. And even if you were, that didn't mean you were perfect either. Both the demon Natsu Dragneel and the angel Lucy Heartfilia were sent to Earthland to infiltrate this seemingly normal school and pose as students. They were both basically on a recon job as for some odd reason, this specific school had an unusual amount of supernatural activity and attracted both extremes of good and evil. They were sent to gather information and do damage control.
Lucy knew of the existence of Natsu, as he was the prince of hell. Natsu knew of the existence of Lucy as well, as she was called the keeper of the stars. Both had their reputations and so it came as no surprise that when they crossed paths, they butted heads.
Lucy brushed the nonexistent dust off of her uniform. She started her walk to fairy tail, entirely pissed that she had to hide her wings. That was one of the main reasons she didn't like coming to Earthland. Flying was a much more convenient way of travel.
She made sure to get the school early to check into her dorm as she was assigned to live on campus by Makarov.
On the other side of town, Natsu was running at full speed, his shirt untucked and his tie loose. He didn't give a damn about his appearance as his dearest brother failed to mention that he was supposed to live on campus, and thus Natsu was running late to register for his dorm. Smoke came out of his ears for a few seconds before he realized that humans didn't blow smoke out of their ears, demons did. He stopped short after.
The pink haired boy got to his dorm building and ran up to his room before running back down to find his class as the man at the registration told him how he was already late for class.
For fucks sake, Natsu thought, this is already as shit as I thought it would be. Fucking lower level demon job.
He was too caught up in his own seething as he came in late to class that he failed to notice the blonde sitting in the back. Maybe if he had, he would have realized that something wasn't right.
The boy rubbed the back of his neck as he spoke to the teacher. "Uh, sorry I'm late. I got caught up registering."
"It's no problem, just find an open seat." Said the teacher.
The demon made his way to the back of the class to the open seat next to a blonde who had her nose stuck in a book. The moment he sat down the hairs on his arms stood up. He immediately felt a sensation he'd only felt twice before run through his body.
That same moment, the exact thing happened to Lucy. She ignored the feeling for the sake of feigning normalacy.
The teacher cleared his throat before he started to speak.
"Well, to those who are new here, I'm Gildarts and I'll be here to teach you your theology class. How about the new students stand up and introduce themselves."
Natsu tch-ed before he stood up and tucked his hands into his pockets.
He rolled his eyes and let out a sigh. "I'm Ether- uh, I'm Natsu Dragneel. I moved here from Hell."
Lucy's eyes widened as the class sucked in a breath. No way, this mission literally could not be any worse, she thought.
A blond haired kid raised his hand and asked nervously "That's a joke right? There's no way you're actually from hell."
The demon in question raised an eyebrow and his mouth turned up into a mischievous grin. "Nah, I'm actually from Hell. Hell, Michigan that is."
Some of the class let out a small laugh and Lucy smacked her head against the desk and let out a groan.
Gildarts cleared his throat, "Well how about you Miss?"
Lucy groaned once again before composing herself and regaining her 'angelic' composure, what a fucking joke. She lifted her head off the desk and stood up before giving the class a blinding smile. "I'm Lucy Heartfilia and I moved here from Colorado." Half the class sighed in enamourment as the others stared wide at her with wide eyes. Natsu, however, had the most shit eating grin on his face. All of a sudden this assignment got a thousand times better, he thought.
The rest of class was pretty uneventful. Neither Natsu or Lucy paid attention to the class as they already knew the entire course being nephilims and all. Once class was over Natsu waited outside until Lucy came out. Before she knew what was happening, the demon was dragging her out of the school before his wings unfurled and he shot both of them up to the roof.
When they were both situated, Natsu held a predatory grin on his face as Lucy had a scowl on hers.
The pinkette held his hand out and said, "Pleasure to meet your acquaintance keeper of the stars."
The blonde scowl deepened and ignored his outstretched hand. "I wish I could say the same but unfortunately all I feel is displeasure to see you again Etherious."
"Aw Lucy baby, don't be like tha-"
"Do not call me that Natsu." She spit out, her voice laced with venom. "What are you even doing here?"
He laughed and held his arms out, "Relax Luce, I didn't know you'd be here, I'm here on a mission from Hell."
Lucy's eye twitched at the nickname but chose to ignore it. "Well then go back." She seethed.
Natsu's eyes twinkled. "Can't. Orders from the big man. This is my punishment."
"It seems this is mine as well." Mumbled the blonde."Anyways, as much as I absolutely adored this conversation as well as you being reckless and irresponsible as usual by using your wings, I have to get to my next class." She started walking away.
Natsu grinned at her annoyance. "Well then I'll see you again soon."
The blonde didn't look back. "I pray to both Heaven and Hell that we don't."
And with that, she walked out of sight and left the demon alone on the roof. He ran his fingers through his pink locks and let out a sigh as he looked up to the sky.
"You know Makarov," he said, "I feel like you planned this out."
...so, what'd you think? I know angel and demon AU's have been done before but I've never seen one thats exactly like this so, it's kind of original? Fun fact, I thought of this in the shower while I was listening to the song Saint Bernard. Another fun fact, it's currently 1 am over here and my eyes are burning! The main plot for this is still kind of blurry but I'll figure it out. I also ~probably~ won't update this fic until I'm done with Heather but idk. Maybe i'll feel inspired again.
If you have any questions feel free to pm me, I love talking to people.
And as always, if you feel inclined to do so, leave a review and let me know what you think! Reviews are like literal crack for me. I read them and I go into a frenzy. But like, a drug free one you know? They just make me real happy :)
Also this has nothing to do with the story but today I was chasing after my skateboard because I thought it was gonna fall in the sewer and I literally tripped on air and I scraped myself worse than any time I've fallen off of my board. And my family saw. So, it was embarrasing.
With all that being said, I hope you enjoyed the story and I'll see you soon :)
