I come to you all with another long chapter(by my standards). Honestly, I haven't even slept at all.

I'm not great with Japanese honorifics, so forgive me.

I also forgot to mention this story will be slight AU. You'll see why.

Anyway, let's get this show on the road!

DxD - Living Darkness


Spike dug into his pants pocket, fishing for the keys to the house he and Amara shared. After some digging, he found his keys and inserted them into the knob and twisted it. He unlocked the door and put his hand on the knob. He stopped momentarily and sighed.

'She is definitely gonna be pissed when she sees me.' He thought to himself.

After mentally preparing himself, he opened the door and was surprised by the smell of food. He closed the door and walked into the kitchen. He saw a small feast, exciting his taste buds. His excitement was short lived as he then spotted Amara sitting at the dining table with a smile on her face. She had changed out of the Kuoh Academy uniform and decided to wear a white tank top and blue jean shorts.

"So, care to explain where my brother really is? I know that wasn't him at school today." She said.

'Quick, gotta make up a lie!' Spike thought to himself. He thought of one, but he was forced to think twice before lying to the 15 year old girl.

"Oh yeah, if you decide to lie, you will not eat any of this food. Not a single bite."

'She's evil...' Spike thought. He decided to press his luck.

"We decided to cut class and go to a strip club." Spike said proudly. He was almost sure this lie would work.

"Hole number one in that lie is that you two didn't take your IDs." She pulled out their IDs out of her left pocket.

"Hole number two is that you didn't take your wallet with you to school today." She pulled Spike's wallet out her right pants pocket.

"Dakarai paid for the trip." Spike said, quickly trying to save this lie, even if it was in vain.

"Brother hasn't worked since he's been here. Now, since I'm in a good mood, I'll give you one more chance to come clean."

"Okay, we went and invaded a Fallen Angel base. He's gone to speak with the Governor of the Fallen Angels." Spike decided to come clean.

Amara froze for a second. Her brother went to go speak with the governor of the Fallen Angels. She was tempted to slap Spike.

"Why would you let him do that!? He can be killed!" Amara shouted, standing up from her seat.

"Your brother can handle himself. Actually, I think Dakarai knows him. But you just showed a little too much concern for Dakarai." Spike took a mock gasp.

"Don't tell me that you're a bro-con!" Spike said. He would regret saying those words. Amara narrowed her eyes and showed killing intent, a dark, ominous aura surrounding her body.

"Care to repeat that, Spike?" She asked.

"You know I didn't mean it!" Spike bolted for the door, only to be punched in the gut and flipped over. He felt Amara's foot plant itself on his back.

"Not only will you not get any food, but I will tie you to a chair and force you to watch Magical Girl shows."

"OH NO, ANYTHING BUT THAT! Wait, I actually don't have a problem with that." Spike let out a perverted chuckle.

"Change of plans. I will force you to watch Twilight."

"NOOOOOOO! OH GOD NO! PLEASE! HAVE MERCY!" Spike cried. His cries were ignored.

"You brought this upon yourself. " She laughed evilly. She dragged him into her room, tied him to a chair, and cut on her TV. The movie started.

"NOT THE SPARKLES! NOOOOOOOOOO!"


DxD - Living Darkness


Kalawarner and Raynare were rubbing their ankles, finally free from their restraints. They felt drained of any magic power they had, They found out that when they were restrained, the lightning had been draining them of their magical power, as Dakarai explained. The two sat on the same couch Dakarai sat on, but kept their distance, out of fear he might snap and kill them like he did Dohnaseek and Mittelt. Dakarai went into Azazel's room and grabbed a blue v-neck shirt. He asked Azazel if he could get a shirt beforehand, and Azazel said it was okay.

"So," Azazel started, "What brings you to my humble home, my boy? Did you come for a drink, or maybe you just wanted to see your good ol' Uncle Azazel, eh?"

"I'm not calling you that, Azazel." Dakarai deadpanned. Azazel burst into a small fit of laughter.

"You need to learn how to relax, Dakarai. No need to be so serious and tense." Azazel went into his kitchen, getting a refill of whiskey.

"You want a drink? I have vodka, beer, sake, you name it!"

"You know I'm not old enough to drink yet, Azazel."

Azazel walked back to the couch, after getting his refill.

"Well, if you ever want to hang out for a few drinks, let me know. But onto business." Azazel's tone changed to a more serious one.

"I know you didn't come here just for a friendly visit. You brought two of my subordinates with you."

Dakarai pointed to Raynare, giving her a dirty look.

"She tried to kill this generation's Sekiryuutei, and killed an ex-nun of the church who happened to have a Sacred Gear called Twilight Healing. I would've killed her and her accomplice, but my brother came in time to stop me. The nun was reincarnated as a Devil before I came here."

Azazel nodded his head.

"Well, would you like to explain yourselves? Especially you, Raynare. I gave you specific orders to monitor the Boosted Gear wielder, not kill him." Azazel said, his voice firm. Raynare got off the couch and bowed to Azazel.

"I apologize, Azazel-sama! I thought it would be better to kill him, so he wouldn't be a threat in the future." Raynare said. Kalawarner also got off the couch and bowed to Azazel.

"I also apologize Azazel-sama. But it wasn't our doing. Dohnaseek threatened to kill us if we didn't follow our orders." Kalawarner said. Dakarai quirked an eyebrow, but suddenly thought of something. Azazel noticed this.

"You two can stop bowing. Dakarai, you look like you have something to say." Azazel looked at him.

"I thought of this theory when I was watching over this generation's Sekiryuutei. I think someone is working independently within your faction. I know you couldn't have ordered this. You're mostly peaceful and too interested in your Sacred Gear research. That, and you also know that another Great War would wipe out the Fallen Angels." Dakarai explained. Azazel smirked.

'Kid thinks just like his father.' Azazel thought to himself.

"I think you're right. I know just the person that would be the most likely, no, would order something like this and have something to gain from it."

'Kokabiel...' Azazel thought to himself.

"I'll investigate further into this issue. Now, as for your punishment.." Azazel said, looking at Kalawarner and Raynare. They started to shake a little.

"You two are now under Dakarai's command." Azazel had a grin on his face, going back to his care-free attitude.

"A-Azazel-sama! You can't leave us with him! He might kill us!" Raynare pleaded.

"And that's why I'm leaving you with him. If you two cause trouble, he'll quickly discipline you."

"Pardon me, Azazel-sama, but how do you know this boy?" Kalawarner asked. Azazel grinned.

"Oh, that's simple. I'm his godfather!" Kalawarner and Raynare sweat dropped. Dakarai sighed, only proving what Azazel said to be true.

"I don't why my father gave you the honor of being my godfather. I will never know nor understand why." Dakarai said, facepalming.

"Now that you just dumped these two on me, I might take you up on that offer for a drink."

"I look forward to it." Azazel smiled, chuckling.

"H-how is that even possible?" Raynare asked.

"His father requested that should anything happen to him, I can take Dakarai and his sisters in." Azazel took a sip of his whiskey.

"Sisters? His comrade spoke of him only having one sister." Kalawarner spoke.

"Ah, but Dakarai here has an older sister. One he was very close to and cherished." Azazel saw Dakarai's face show a small amount of anger, before going away.

"Would you mind if I told them more, Dakarai?" Azazel asked. Dakarai nodded his head, signaling him to continue.

"If I remember correctly, her name was Straya. She was left with the responsibility of caring for her siblings after their mother died. The three were living on the streets, not knowing where the next meal would come from or where they would stay. Eventually, she was found by a High-Class Devil, and allowed herself to be recruited into his peerage in exchange for sheltering her and her siblings. When Dakarai turned 7, she became drunk with her senjutsu powers and killed her master, becoming a Stray Devil. Dakarai ran away from the hunters with his little sister. I tried finding the two after receiving word of what happened, but I couldn't find them." Azazel explained, taking another sip from his glass.

"Senjutsu?" Kalawarner inquired.

"Him and his sisters get their yokai blood from their grandfather on their father's side."

Dakarai got up from his seat and started to prepare a magic circle.

"Not using your Sacred Gear?" Azazel asked.

"Dragon says not to use any power until she makes the necessary adjustments to my body." Dakarai explained. Azazel nodded.

"Oh, before I forget, I really think you should go and see Gabriel. She misses you and wants to see you." Azazel said, making Dakarai freeze in place.

"O-one of the Seraph, Gabriel?!" Kalawarner asked, her turn to be surprised.

"Yep. She's his godmother. His mother asked Gabriel if she could the godmother in case anything happened to his mother. She accepted the offer gladly." Azazel stated.

"Just who the hell are you?" Raynare looked towards Dakarai.

"But from what you just told us and for a Seraph to be his godmother would mean his mother had to be an Angel, and since you said demonic power, that would mean his father was a..." Kalawarner said, slowly coming to a realization.

"You guessed right, Kalawarner. He's Half-Angel and Half-Devil. Would you be so kind, Dakarai?" Azazel look at Dakarai, who had his back turned to him. Dakarai's wings appeared, leaving Raynare and Kalawarner speechless.

"It's impossible for a Angel and Devil to mate!" Kalawarner said in shock.

"Well, his mom and dad proved the supernatural world wrong on that one. It would be more accurate to say that the powers of an Angel and a Devil can't co-exist in the same body. You see, the most important reason for me being this kid's godfather was because he has a large amount of dark power flowing within him, due to being a hybrid. Because I'm involved with the Grigori, I have the resources to help him, should his demonic power or "Devil side" overpower his "Angel side" or Holy power. The simplest way to put it would be to imagine his power as a yin-yang symbol." Azazel paused for a moment.

"Then what we saw earlier was..." Raynare said, recalling seeing his dark power.

"Then wouldn't that mean his sisters are the same way?" Kalawarner asked.

"They probably would be the same but his older sister was trained by her mother and Gabriel to master her Holy power and her father taught her how to control her demonic energy." Azazel explained.

"His father told me the other reason why Gabriel was appointed as his godmother as well. His mother, Kahina, didn't want him to go down a dark path, or have a thirst for revenge. She and her husband knew that one day, someone would come for him or his sisters. She accepted the fact that she could very well die protecting them. From the moment Dakarai was born, while she was overjoyed, she knew for a fact someone would come to try and take her son away from her. So she asked Gabriel to be his godmother, because she knew Gabriel wouldn't let Dakarai progress towards darkness and that she would protect him." Azazel took another short pause.

"His mother was his everything after his father died when he was three. He looked up to his father so much, wanting to be strong, just like he was." Azazel chuckled, remembering one time where Dakarai asked his father if he could train with him, not caring about his age or small size. His father would have done it, had his mother not grabbed Dakarai and held him close to her, meanwhile giving her husband a dangerous glare saying "don't even think about it". His father quickly responded saying he would train him when he got older, much to Dakarai's chagrin.

"After his mother died, all he had left was his older sister. After she left, I'm surprised his demonic power hasn't consumed him yet." Azazel finished.

"I'm sorry, Dakarai. I didn't mean to tell your whole life story."

"It's fine. I guess if I'm to be working with these two, they should know my past I suppose. You can tell them who my parents really were." Dakarai said, shaking his head.

Azazel nodded his head.

"Dakarai's father was Obi Tukuro, or otherwise known as "Death's Right Hand Man" for the number of Angels and Fallen Angels he killed and utter destruction and chaos he caused during the last few hundred years of the Great War, not to mention being the grandson of the Egyptian God of Death, Anubis. His mother, Kahina Tukuro, was known as the "Ice Empress" for her control over ice, as she could turn a battlefield into a frozen tundra. She could've been a Seraph, but turned the offer down so she could settle down and have a family."

Raynare and Kalawarner could only stand in silence. This boy was the son of not one, but two war legends.

"Speaking of peaceful times, I'm thinking about proposing a peace treaty to the other factions. Would you help uphold the peace, Dakarai, or will you still harbor hatred against the Devils?" Azazel asked seriously.


Flashback

(A/N: Dakarai's three at this point in time. You guys are going to think he is OOC as f*ck now lol.)

Dakarai was resting, his head on his mother's lap. He was feeling tired after playing outside all day. The sun was setting.

"Dakarai." His mother spoke. Dakarai turned his head to look up to his mother. He always found her long, brown hair to be beautiful, as well as her chocolate brown eyes, which he inherited from her.

"Yes, mommy?"

"I want you to promise me something." She paused for a second, stroking Dakarai's hair with her hand.

"Don't hold hatred or ill-will towards someone because of what they are. You know how Mr. Azazel is nice to you, even though he's no longer an angel, and how your father cares about you even though he's a devil?" Dakarai nodded his head.

"Judge someone from their character, not from what they are, okay?" She smiled at her son.

"Okay mommy, I promise." Dakarai stretched and yawned, his tiny fangs showing. His wolf ears and tail appeared. His mother almost squealed at his cuteness. She started petting his ears and hummed a lullaby, putting him to sleep. She carried him to his room and tucked him into his bed. She gave him a kiss on the forehead before leaving his room.


"Not trying to send you on a guilt trip here, but just take into account what your mother and Gabriel would want you to do." Azazel said. Dakarai let out a sigh.

"I'll uphold the peace treaty." Dakarai started.

"But I will avenge my parent's deaths. I am going to kill the man who murdered my parents and girlfriend." Dakarai finished. He walked into Azazel's kitchen and made himself a glass of water.

Azazel would have to tell Gabriel that Dakarai already has a thirst for revenge. Her kindness could probably lessen that. He would contact Gabriel once Dakarai left. Knowing her, she would rush over to Kuoh to find him and his sister. Wait, what was that last part he said?

"Wait, you had a girlfriend?" Azazel asked. Dakarai nodded.

A grin plastered itself on Azazel's face. He was about to tease the hell out of him.

"So you're no longer a virgin? I didn't think you had it in you. Gabriel is going to be sad once she's heard you lost your 'innocence'. Azazel said, trying to hold back a laugh.

Dakarai spit out the water he was drinking. Azazel went into a fit of full-blown laughter. After he finished, he went into the kitchen and put his arm around Dakarai's neck.

"I swear I'm 30 seconds away from killing you, Azazel." Dakarai threatened. Kalawarner and Raynare believed he would actually carry this threat out.

"C'mon kid, you can tell me what she was like. You have a picture of her?" Azazel said, dismissing the boy's threat. Dakarai sighed and pulled a picture out of his pants pocket. He handed it to Azazel. He made a wolf whistle.

"She was an Angel. A pure-blooded one too." Dakarai said, thinking about his former lover.

"Damn, nice one kid! C'mon, high five!" Azazel held his hand up.

"I'm not going to high five you, Azazel." Dakarai said, snatching the picture out of Azazel's hand. Sitting his glass of water down on the counter and going back to the living room. He prepared a magic circle once again.

Azazel chuckled a little. He stretched.

"Well, you three go on home now. And Dakarai, talk to Gabriel, seriously. I swear she was ready to kill me after you disappeared when that little 'incident' of yours." Azazel shivered a little at the memory.

"Incident?" Raynare asked, stepping into the magic circle. Kalawarner followed her. Dakarai was the last to step in the circle.

"Just ask him once you get home. He'll tell you about it." Azazel said, smirking. The three teleported away, but not before Dakarai flipped Azazel the bird. Azazel laughed. After he stopped laughing, he contacted Gabriel using magic.

"Hey, Gabriel. Guess who I just saw?"


DxD - Living Darkness


Gabriel had just finished up some work she had in Heaven. She was preparing for bed, until a small holographic image of Azazel appeared in front of her.

"Hey, Gabriel. Guess who I just saw?" Azazel said, grinning.

"Who did you see, Azazel?" Gabriel asked.

"I want you to guess. This is too good to just tell you who it is." Azazel said, holding back a chuckle. Gabriel put a finger to her chin, trying to figure out who it is. She quickly came to a realization.

"You don't mean..." Gabriel trailed off.

"Yep! I just talked to Dakarai." Oh, how Azazel wished he had ear plugs for the scream of joy Gabriel let out. Most Angels heard Gabriel scream, even Michael heard it, which startled him. He went to Gabriel's room, where he saw her jumping up and down.

"Sister, is something wrong?" Michael asked.

"Oh, far from it brother! Azazel! Tell me where he is right now!" Gabriel demanded, after she stopped jumping. Azazel was on the floor, holding his ears as he was recovering from Gabriel's scream. He got up, still holding his ears.

"He's where I am, in Kuoh, Japan. You can probably still find him before he goes home." Azazel said, his holographic image faded away.

Gabriel quickly created a magic circle and stepped in it.

"I'll be taking some time off, brother. See you soon!" She said before disappearing. Michael stood in place for a second, trying to figure out why his sister was suddenly so happy and why she left so quickly. He then remembered that Gabriel told him that she was a godmother. Then everything made sense to him.


DxD - Living Darkness


Dakarai, Raynare, and Kalawarner were standing at the front door of Dakarai's house.

"So, about this 'incident' Azazel-sama mentioned..." Raynare started.

"When I was 13, I borrowed my brother's Sacred Gear so I could attempt to go back in time and prevent my parent's death. When I traveled back, I found out I ended up in the wrong timeline. My mother and father were still alive, my sister was still with us, and I was actually happy. I traveled back here, where I went into a small rampage, destroying everything around me. After I used up all my power, I passed out. My brother found me and took me back to our hideout. " Dakarai quickly explained.

"Now, I'm going to set the ground rules here. The first one," Dakarai looked towards Raynare, making her jump.

"is for you two to find new, and modest clothing." Dakarai said, putting emphasis on the word modest for Raynare. "I will not have you two be a bad influence on my little sister."

"The second one is that you respect me, and I'll respect you." Kalawarner and Raynare nodded.

"The final one is to clean up after yourselves. Other than that, I can tolerate you two living here. I don't have that much of a problem with you, Kalawarner. But Raynare on the other hand, I still have half a mind to kill you." Raynare avoided his deadly gaze, directed towards her.

"You two go on inside. I'll be down the street, talking with the Devil in charge here." Dakarai walked down the street.

"Oh, before I forget! My brother is a pervert, so you two should cover up!" Dakarai walked towards Issei's house.

Raynare and Kalawarner stood there for a moment.

"Well, most Fallen Angels are perverted in nature, so I guess it's not that big of a deal." Raynare said. Kalawarner nodded in agreement. The two walked inside of the house.


Originally, Kuroka and Dakarai's sister were going to appear instead of what I'm typing now. I seriously need to sleep though lol.

Okay, explanation time!

1. Anubis's daughter is Kebetchet, making her Dakarai's grandmother who has has never met. Her husband, who was one of the last wolf yokai left, was also reincarnated as a devil. So this explains why Dakarai and his sisters have Devil blood, Angel blood, and Yokai blood, all wrapped up in one bundle lol.

Not enough Gabriel in this fandom damnit! Lol

I have the whole Riser fight thought out, just not written yet.

Please review! Okay, Imma go pass out now.
