Kurou walked out of the airport while stretching his arms over his head. He looked around him as he took in the sight of the people walking through the city. After arriving to the vatican he walked through the entrance where a preist was waiting for him.

"The elders are waiting for your report in the council room Kurou-san" the preist said.

"Sigh, I hoped I could relax before having to talk to them." Kurou said dissapointedly.

The preist gave a small smile before replying."I aplogize for having to call as soon as you got back."

"It's fine, let's just get this over with." he sighed.

The preist led him to the council room where the elders were waiting. After going in Kurou gave his report of the battle at Kouh. Thankfully it didn't take long to explain what hapened.

"After Kokabiel was defeated he was taken by the Vanishing Dragon along with freed." Kurou finished.

"Thank you for your report. Make sure you come back for your next mission in the morning." one of the elders said.

He nodded and headed off to his room. Arriving to his room he immediately collapsed on his bed.

"I wish they would just let me rest for once." he said to himself.

[You already know that's not going ot happen. Since your one of their strongest exorcists, you'll be sent on missions more than others.] said Acnologia.

"Yea I suppose so. I just wanted a little break considering what happened yesterday." he replied

Kurou closed his eyes as he thought back to what transpired a day ago.

yesterday

Kurou was taking a break in a resturant while he waited for his next flight. As he was eating he sensed a small amount of magic energy with a dark feel to it.

"Hmm,what's that?" he thought to himself.

He turned to look out the window he was next to. He couldn't see anybody suspicious and thought it was his imagination. Turning to coninue eating before stopping once someone looking like a preist entered his line of sight.

He frowned as he looked at the man. "There shouldn't be any preists in this town."

He quickly paid for his food and went to follow the man. Kurou moved through the city watching the man walk into a building. Thinking fast he snuck into the it through a window. He walked until he came upon a room in the building with voices talking inside of it.

"Alright, does everone know the plan?" a male voice said.

"Hai!" multiple voices responded.

"Good, we'll be taking over this town tonight." the man said.

Hearing footsteps coming towards the door he hurriedly left the building and jumped onto an oppossing rooftop. He watched as a lot of figures left the building and split up into groups. Clicking his tongue in annoyance once he relized they were stray exorcists and magicains. He continued to watch but left before someone spotted him.

"If what that man said is true than this town is in danger." Kurou said.

[It's best if you take of this problem now before your flight leaves.] Acnologia told him.

Nodding in agreement he went to follow one of the groups of stray exorcists. He waited for an opportunity for them to be away from any reinforcments and civilians. Once they were alone Kurou rushed towards one of them and kicked him in his head hard enough to knock him out. Catching the other two by surprise he managed to take down one more before he had to avoid a light bullet. Turning to the last one with his gun pointed at him,Kurou formed a sphere of wind and shot it at him. The exorcist was blown back dropping his weapon in the process. Walking up to him Kurou grabed him by his neck and held him in the air.

"So would you mind telling this plan of your leader?" he asked.

"Like I would tell you." the man angrily retorted.

Smirking,Kurou ignited his hand in electricity and held it to the man's chest.

"Are you sure. I was going to let you go if you told me,but it looks like I'll have to kill you." he said.

The stray exorcist's eyes widened in fear. "Alright I'll tell you just don't kill me!" he said in fear.

Smiling Kurou lowered his hand and told him to continue. After he told Kurou everthing,Kurou thanked him before knocking him out. Leaving the area after teleporting the exorcists to the vatican's prison, Kurou hurried towards the meeting spot that the exorcists and magicians were going to.

[You better hurry Partner, you don't have a lot of time.]

"I know,I'm gonna have to try to end it by surprising them with one massive attack."

Getting close to the meeting spot he summoned his sacred gear. Starting to send power to it once he could see the exorcists and magicians. Jumping to the top of a tree he jumped again to get to a high enough position so all of them was in his sight. Some of them noticed him,but by then it was already to late. Swinging his spear,Kurou unleashed a huge amount of fire and magic energy down below. The attack smashed into the ground before spreading in a giant inferno engulfing those on the ground.

Landing once the the fire dissapeared,Kurou looked around to make sure he got everyone. He relaxed after seeing that nothing was left once his attack hit. He turned to leave before he was hit by an attack that sent him flying dropping his spear. kurou got back up to see that there was one more person left.

"Tch,I let my guard down." He thought while summoning his spear back to him.

"You ruined my plans you brat. I'll make you pay with your life!" shouted the man angerly

Narrowing his eyes at the man,Kurou rushed at him with his spear in a position to stab him. The spear struck a barrier the man created. The barrier stopped the attack for a moment before it shattered and the spear continued forward stabing the man in the shoulder.

He grunted as the spear left his shoulder and created a sphere of magic energy in his hand. "I won't let our plan fail so just dissapear!" He yelled.

The mans attack seemed to go through Kurou surprising the man before a spear burst through his chest. He coughed up blood before falling to the ground. Standing behind him was Kurou with his blood coated spear in his hand. He frowned as he looked at the man.

"Sigh,I at least wanted to leave one alive to question." Kurou said.

[It doesn't really matter Kurou. But you better hurry your flight leaves in a few minutes.] Acnoogia said.

"What,why didn't you tell me sooner!"

[It must have slipped my mind.]

Kurou immediately rushed to the airport while Acnologia laughed at him.

Present

Kurou sighed as he remembered almost missing his flight to the Vatican. He wondered why those stray exorcists and magicians wanted to take over that town. Dismissing he thought once he started yawning and decided to head to sleep.

Morning

After waking up Kurou showered and ate before heading to the coucil room. Entering the room he bowed to the elders.

"I'm here,would you mind telling me what my next mission will be." he said.

"Kurou Ryouta your next assignment is extremy important one. Will you take it?" one of them said.

Kurou raised his eyebrow wondering what it will be. Now interested he nodded his head.

"Very well,you wll be heading to Kuoh to attend a meeting of the three factions." They said.

"The three factions meeting huh. I was already planning to check it out." he thought.

"And what will I be doing." He asked.

"You will be escorting and guarding Lord Micheal and Lady Gabriel." one of them responded.

His eyes widened once he heard his assignment. Bowing to the elders he turned and left the room.

[The three factions meeting huh, are you excited.] Acnologia asked.

"Yea, I can tell something intersting will happened." Kurou relied.

With a giant smile on his face Kurou hurried to his room to prepare while thinking of the intresting things that would be happening soon.

Hey guys It's me. Sorry for not updating for months but I had to deal with school along with some other things. So as you can see this chapter is what happened to Kurou after he left Kuoh to return to the Vatican. Next chapter will be the the three factions meeting. By the way would rather see Issei vs Vali, Kurou vs Vali or a three way battle between them,let me know.
