AN: Welcome back to chapter 8 of the Summoned Prince. I am sorry that it took so long for you to get this chapter, but I hope you all still like it.

Disclaimer: I do not own Blue Exorcist. Obviously

"We just got a call that a strange being has appeared in the courthouse."

"But that's one of the most secure buildings in all of True Cross. Almost no demon should be able to enter the courthouse."

"Yes, but if I'm right, this isn't a demon." He pushed his glasses farther up his nose. "They're saying that this being could be an angel."

(Yukio's POV)

"An angel?! But there hasn't been an angel sighted in at least half a millennium," I said in a state of shock.

"Yes, and many of our exorcists don't even believe that angels exist." Dad replied.

"I was starting to think that they didn't exist. And I really doubt that a real angel would just suddenly appear without warning."

Father let out a laugh, "Well of course they exist,Yukio. They're God's finest creations, and the protectors of all things in God's light."

"Then where have they been all this time?"

"Ah! Time!" Father hurriedly looked at his watch and said, "We will continue this talk later. We have to hurry." He started running towards the courthouse, and I followed after him. As we went down the streets I could see tons of exorcists everywhere heading in the same direction. I recognized some of them, but the majority I didn't. It was about a 5 minute run towards the courthouse, and what I saw shocked me.

The entire courthouse was surrounded by at least 200 armed exorcists. The perimeter of the building was lined with rows of exorcist, there was heavy artillery, and a few tanks, behind them. Mephisto himself was standing there directing different exorcists with a smile. There was an air of dread coming from everyone as they were worried about what was happening. Dad walked straight to Mephisto as he sent another exorcist away.

"Give it to me straight, Mephisto. What do we have here?" My dad asked in a serious tone.

"Oh, you know nothing much." Replied Mephisto, his exaggerated smile widening.

"Really? Because it looks like a whole damn army has assembled here."

"I guess there is a small thing. It appears that some of the exorcist claim that a blinding light suddenly appeared in the center of the main room while they were in the building and a figure appeared. Apparently, the figure was dressed in long white flowing robes, had golden hair, and 6 huge white wings. The building was immediately evacuated and quarantined, and now we're getting ready to send in an extermination team." Mephisto said in a cheery tone.

"Have you got a team ready yet?"

"Of course. We plan to send in 12 upper first class exorcists. They're waiting on standby for orders."

"Go ahead and send them in. Give them 10 minutes." My father ordered.

"Alright," responded Mephisto before he disappeared in a cloud of confetti and pink smoke.

Dad turned to me, "Yukio I want you to head to the medics. If anything happens and whatever is in there gets out... I want you to run."

I nodded. I knew that even though I wanted to stay by his side, all I would do was get in his way. He nodded back to me, and we parted ways. I went to the makeshift tent that had been set up at the back, and dad went to the very front of the whole ordeal. He sent the extermination team into the building.

I went to help the medics with their preparations and for a few minutes, nothing happened. Until, out of nowhere, a blinding golden light shown out from the courthouse. People started yelling and panicking, but the only thing I could see was the golden light,

(Rin POV)

I was sitting on my throne, a purposely menacing look on face, demonstrating the power I held. In front of me was a long rectangular table with twelve of my subordinates sitting at it. The Royal Shadow Court. A coalition of the most important and powerful demons under my reign. Six of them were generals in the army, and the other six were the demon nobles ruling over the demons in my realm. To be honest, only about four of them really mattered in the grand scheme of things.

The first one is the leader of the vampire clan, Lord Doyle Vladia. He looks like a little kid around ten with blond hair, red eyes, and normally dresses in a suit a little too big.

The second was Queen of Warriors, Helena. The leader of the hellhound clan. A tall woman with cropped dirty blonde hair, fingernails sharp as claws and a set of crimson claw marks were scratched onto her cheeks as a symbol. She wore black battle armor and her three black dog tails slipped out the back.

The third demon wore long black robes that looked like they were weighing him down. His deep, almost black, red hair was slicked back, complimenting his dark skin complexion. He wore an absurd amount of gold on his neck and fingers. Duke Zal; he controls the treasures of my domain, as well as acting as one of my top advisors.

Finally, there was Lady Marvool; leader of the Shade, the most elite shadow demons in my kingdom. Shades are partially a ghost but their spirits were never recognized in Assiah. Their soul warps into a demon made entirely of shadows and because of that, Lady Marvool doesn't have a true physical body, the ideal infiltration device. When looking at her all you can tell is her pure white eyes and lips. Her smooth black hair falls down her back, nearly to the ground, further giving her a shadowed impression. She is captain of the stealth squads, information tactics and chief strategist of my military.

"Now that all of you are here, we shall begin. First things first, we are here to discuss the war against heaven. I'm sure you have all heard the rumors about angels."

Duke Zal scoffed as he said, "Yes, my prince, we have heard of these rumors, but no one truly believes it. I mean angels, can you imagine?"

There was a murmur of agreement from some of the other members, but my generals were looking at me and I could tell they were starting to understand what was happening. The members continued muttering and conversing with each other.

Helena slammed her fist onto the table, "Silence! Our Lord is speaking! If anyone interrupts again, they will lose their tongue." She glared at Duke Zal harshly. With that, the chatter died down and I smiled at Helena's brash loyalty.

"Then allow me to put your worries to ease and end the senseless talk. The rumors about Gehenna going to war with angels are….. true."

There was a collective gasp from multiple people, and some of them even stood up from there seats. Zal was one of them.

"Impossible! Angels are just a myth created by those pitiful humans. Just like God and Jesus the bible is a fake." He yelled. At me, nonetheless.

I looked at the duke and glared. I set the stones beside him ablaze with blue flames. Zal jumped back from the fire, looking at me with terror in his eyes. I stood from my chair, everyone instantly got down on one knee in a bow. There were obviously some people who didn't like it as I could sense that a lot of the minor members, as well as Zal, were mentally yelling.

I stood on the dais in front of my throne, pacing a little, "Yes, Angels, God, all of it; they're all real. And in six months heaven's gates will spill forth an army of angels against us. My father has decided that we must make a preemptive strike. Each of the demon kings has been given the order to organize the forces of their realms and invade Assiah. We were told where to strike as well. We must claim those areas if we wish to succeed in the war that is coming. So, I have jobs for each of you."

They looked up at me.

"What would those be, your highness?" Lord Doyle asked from beside me.

"Doyle, Helena, and Marvool to prepare your forces. Your are the heads of your demon clans, I want all of you to get them ready to go into battle. My generals will work together on invasion plans and rally our strength. Duke Zal," he flinched as I said his name; good, "I want you to find suitable weapons against the angels in our treasury. Everyone, complete your task quickly, I want to leave before the start of next month." I said as I stopped in front of my throne and sat down, making myself even more intimidating.

There was a silent pause but they all answered, "Yes sir" and left the room. The moment I felt them leave the castle the first thing I did was get up from my throne and take off my suit jacket. I hated wearing those fancy clothes. I threw the suits jacket over the throne and walked off towards the center of the room. I put out my hand and formed a cloud of dark mist that formed the shape of a tornado twice the size of my palm.

The mist grew until it was just about my size. Then it began to solidify until it no longer looked like mist. It now looked like a body with no features, and completely black. However, then I forced the features to appear on the body, starting with its hair and face. The whole process took a minute, and when it was done the black figure had transformed into a perfect replica of me. Even its clothes were the same as mine. My dark clone ability had infinite uses, because I could clone anyone. However, it takes longer to make a perfect one.

I made this clone for two reasons. The first was to see if I could make a high-quality clone, and the second was if I could then I would use it as my stand-in. I need a stand-in because I still had the mission of being a spy for my father. Which meant I had to go back to that girl, but someone had to stay behind and manage the Shadowlands. That's where my clone came in.

I did an inspection of the clone just to be sure, and once I was satisfied I said, "You know why I summoned you, don't you?"

The clone scoffed and said, "Of course. You want me to be your stand in and report to you everything that's happening, so you can stay as father's personal spy."

"Right. No one besides our direct family may know this information."

He rolled his eyes, "Just stop worrying. I know what to do."

"Don't forget that I'm still your Superior, show me the deserved respect and do your job or I can just as easily destroy you."

"I apologize, sire." I gave a curt nod, and the clone walked over to the throne, picked up the suit's jacket that I had thrown down, sat down. Crossing his legs and for all the world, looking the imposing demonic prince I was.

"Go ahead and get ready Rin." Said the clone. I nodded again and headed towards my chambers to prepare for my return to Assiah.

(Shiemi's POV)

Me and my mother had been having a nice talk about the garden and school, and everything had been going well. She was about to ask me something, but before she could there was a huge blast of golden light nearby. My mother instantly jumped up and tried to cover me to protect me. At first, I didn't really notice because the light was so blinding that it filled my vision on all sides, and I couldn't see anything else. As the light dimmed, I was able to see again.

My vision was slightly blurred, but I could see most of it, and what played out before me was incredible. With the way I was facing, I was looking right towards True Cross and I could see that there was a huge pillar of golden light that was going up into the clouds. The light was so bright that it illuminated everything with a golden hue. Based on where the pillar was rising I could assume that the pillar was in the area near the center of True Cross. I was so focused on it that I didn't even hear my mother yelling at me to get in the house.

Before I could register what she was telling me she grabbed me and basically threw me into the house through the door that we had left open. I landed on the floor with a hard thud, my arms arching as I used the to catch myself. Mother ran into the house and closed the door, locking it. Even then, the light was still faintly shining through the window. Illuminating the tiny dust particles drifting in the air.

"Shiemi you stay here while I run to make a call. Don't you dare go outside."

Mother ran past me, and turned a corner heading to the landline that was in the living room. She was terrified, but I wasn't. In fact, now that I think about it the light didn't feel scary. Instead, it felt warm and safe like there was a warm sheet covering my whole body. I stood from the ground, and without even thinking about it I headed back to the door and opened it.

I knew what my mother said, and I wanted to listen. But there was something calling to me- no, calling for me- from the light. Normally I would be scared, but I just wasn't this time. As I stepped out the door and walked down the stairs, I looked towards the light and was truly surprised. The pillar of light had morphed its shape from a pillar into a pair of golden wings that covered True Cross. The wings looked like there were thousands of individual feathers, and were slightly flapping. Each movement sending an aura of energy across the city. An experience that I had never felt before.

I stared at the wings and there was something inside me that wanted to get closer, and I might have done it but a voice filled my head. The voice of a woman.

(Yukio's POV)

The golden light had shaken everybody into a panic. It was like we had become a swarm of ants, going every which way, and scrambling around trying to make sense of what was happening. The healer tent was knocked down in the chaos and I was being jostled around by the frenzied crowd. I looked at the courthouse and was astonished to see that the entire building was covered in nothing but a bright radiant golden pillar. It was beautiful being so close that if I ran I would reach the pillar within a minute; but I couldn't run. A boundless reservoir of power emanated from the pillar, so strong that every muscle in my body had turned to jelly and I could barely stand on my feet.

I looked around trying to find my father, but it was almost impossible with how many people were running around. However, after a few seconds, I was able to spot him. He was standing within arms reach of the pillar, and he had his glasses in one hand and his standard rifle in the other. His cloak was billowing back with the force of the pillar but by his body language, he was on ultra high alert.

I was about to call out to him when the pillar of life began to bulge at the center, spreading farther and farther out. Then it formed into towering golden wings. They were so detailed and realistic that if I hadn't seen it form, then I would have thought it was a bird.

The newly formed wings flapped slightly, the wind alone was strong enough to almost blow off my glasses. It flapped a few times, and all the exorcists stopped running around and looked at the wings. Most were even pointing their weapons at them.

There was a calm silence that laid over the rush of the constant wind flowing over us. Then, out of nowhere, a woman's voice filled my head, and not like someone was talking into my ear. Instead, it was like there was someone talking in my head.

In a calm voice, the woman said, "Fear not. For I am not your enemy."

There was a rustle from the exorcists, and the majority of them scoffed. Which meant that everyone was hearing this voice. I noticed that the courthouse which had been completely obscured from the light was now perfectly visible even though it was still shrouded in the golden light.

Something was different. A woman stood on the top step of the courthouse. A long silky white robe freely flowed behind her. She was wearing black shiny shoes, and around her neck was a single gold necklace with a gold gear on it.

She had long flowing golden blond hair, pure white skin, golden eyes, and a slight smile on her face. However, the most noticeable thing about her was the six huge white wings that were attached to her back.

There was a dead silence, then the woman continued, "I sense a great fear within all of you, and it pains me to be the cause of it. Still, because of the nature of my visit, I must continue."

She stopped again to let her words settle. She was about to speak when all of a sudden some exorcists at the front began to fire on her.

At first, I thought the bullets would immediately kill the woman; but the bullets never even touched her. How was it possible that not a single bullet hit her, when least 20 exorcists had fired directly at her? The exorcist bullets were lying crushed in front of the woman at the bottom of the steps. So they had to have hit something.

The woman flicked her hand, and all of the exorcists who fired at her collapsed to the ground. People started panicking again and some even ran away.

I was about to run as well, when she said, "Fear not. I merely put them to sleep. They will all awake tomorrow. Listen, and allow me to explain the reason for me coming here. My name is Chamuel. I am the third archangel of Heaven."

A wave of feelings washed over everyone, from disbelief and shock to disgust and fear. Most wrote this off as a lie, and even I didn't believe her but my father's words emerged from my memory. He had thought that this was the real deal, and if it was, then this could change everything. Still, most of the exorcists did not believe her and many even raised their guns higher at her.

Just as it seemed like there was going to be another shootout Sir Pheles appeared in front of the woman facing the crowd of exorcists. Then, in his normal over exaggerated tone, he said, "Friends please there is no reason to be so afraid. I can personally say that this a true angel, and what she speaks is the truth."

Mephisto turned to Chamuel and with a toothy grin he said, "Long time no see, Chamy."

Chamuel looked directly at his face, and instantly her face shifted from happiness to annoyance and disgust. She looked down at him.

"It's Chamuel, Demon. You have no right to taint my name with your mouth, you are better off dead."

"Ah, so cold."

Chamuel rolled her eyes and then turned back to the masses of exorcists.

"I hope you all believe that I am an angel, I have very important matters to tell you all. War is coming." She paused as murmurs, whispers and generalized terror rushed across the crowd. "Whether you believe my words or not, they must be spoken. Heaven's gates will open into Assiah and an army of angels will come within six months. However, the demons of Ghenna also know this and they are mounting their biggest invasion of Assiah ever. We expect it to happen soon. Your forces would have been crushed, but through my the knowledge and grace of my Elder Brother, the which is the 3rd highest in all of Heaven he devised a brilliant strategy for you all."

She waved her left hand, and above us formed a 3-dimensional image of the entire earth it looked like a hologram, but it was the size of a football field. There were also multiple red dots all over it.

She said, "this represents your Assiah, and those red dots represent the most likely places that the demons will invade to gain strategic footholds. Some of these may be false, and others may not be on here but the majority of these areas will be targeted by the demons so you must strengthen them."

She closed her left hand, and the hologram shrank to the size of a soccer ball, solidified into a physical object that still had the planet and the red dots, and it fell to the ground and landed right in my father's outstretched hands."

"I have delivered my brother's message so I will be taking my leave. I do hope you survive so I can meet you all in person."

Chamuel's form became completely golden, and it zipped up into the sky vanishing. The golden light also disappeared, and there was a blanket of tension resting on everyone. There were a few seconds of just silence and everyone exploded.

"What the hell... yeah right… oh god."

They were saying all sorts of things, but none of that was really important. All that was on my mind was getting to my father. I began to push past the exorcists who were basically screaming at each other and was heading to my father who was talking to Mephisto at the same area where Chamuel had stood. I was right t the front when all of a sudden my father turned from Mephisto, and to the crowd.

He took in a long breath, my first thought: oh no. I covered my ears.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU ALL DOIN' STANDING THERE? THIS IS NO TIME FOR YOU TO BE ACTING LIKE A BUNCH OF WHINING BABIES! I WANT ALL OF YOU TO GO BACK TO YOUR DUTIES AND STAY ON HIGH ALERT! DISMISSED."

Everybody began running away and heading back to their positions, or going back to their homes. I turned to look at my dad one more time, but he was already gone and so was Mephisto. The only thing that was left was some scattered confetti where the had stood.

I let out a sigh and looked at the time. My watch read 9:21, and so I started to run back to the dorm, and hopefully get at least some sleep tonight.

AN: Thank you for reading this chapter, and I hope you all of a great day.
