Hey guys I just want to thank everyone that gave me suggestions and that to keep it up, they've really been helping plus it can let me know what you'd like to see in this story. Also I'm not an expert on 40k lore so if you find something that doesn't make sense then please tell me.

Question time:

Guest: It's likely he will make the famous characters from 40k, I've already been researching some of the more powerful heroes that could be used.

Rotrox: Yeah that was always a pet peeve of mine as well, I mean he literally just made the Chaos Gods. That's not something you can just calmly go 'okay that was cool' and walk away from.

Azrael-Von-Gruber: That is a very, very, interesting idea there mate. Honestly I have no idea but I'll keep it in mind.

Mad God 42: Really? I thought the C'tan only had power on the material realm not the Warp?

Commissar Carl: Cheers mate, that will be helpful.

Nero Angelo Sparda: Good job, yeah that was how I pictured the Chaos Gods reacting, and yeah Azazel did fuck up quite badly.

edboy4926: That one is tough to answer, since we don't know how the Sacred Gear defines things as equipment. It is entirely possible that an Iron Man could be considered equipment by the Sacred Gear due to not having a 'life' of its own e.g. Necrons could be made since they are made from living metal. I checked the wiki page but it doesn't help, so unfortunately I don't know about that one.

Dased22: Glad you liked him. Could you tell me what you liked most about Alex's character?

Inquisitor Czevak: You're going to like the next chapter.

Guest: Slaanesh is going to play a big part for Rias and her group.

Rias and the rest of her peerage suddenly appeared back in their office as the teleportation circle disappeared, causing Issei to rush over to his King. "Buchou, we have to go back! We have to save Asia from those Fallen Angels!" cried Issei, only to see his King sigh and give him a harsh glare.

"Issei, she is the enemy. Or have you forgotten that she's a nun? Besides the Stray Exorcist's master was about to appear. I'm not risking open conflict with the Fallen over the fate of a single human," informed Rias, harshly.

"Buchou, please…she's my friend," begged the Sekiryuutei.

"I'm sorry Issei but my decision stands," replied the Gremory heiress, getting a flinch from Issei before the Pawn nodded and walked out of the room.

"Kiba, Koneko, keep an eye on him…make sure he gets home safely," sighed the Devil, getting nods from her respective peerage members as they left after Issei.

The clubroom was filled with silence as Akeno and Rias just stared at the door before the heiress got up from her chair and turned to look out the window. "Akeno, how much do we know about the Fallen in that church?" asked Rias.

"If you're wanting to know whether they are strays or not I'm afraid I have nothing new on that front. Our spies say that they weren't authorized but it is always possible that this is a secret mission of one of the Cadre," replied the Queen.

"Of course, could this get any worse?" muttered Rias as she began rubbing her temples.

"There's more Buchou, our spies managed to intercept messages to Azazel and the Cadre itself. It seems that Annihilation Maker has been found," informed Akeno with a grim expression.

Immediately Rias spun around in shock and fear, "he followed the standard procedure we all agreed upon didn't he?!"

The standard procedure agreed upon by all of the Three Factions was an agreement on how to handle any wielders of Annihilation Maker should they appear. Even though the true Longinus was the most powerful when it came to sheer power…Annihilation Maker was something much more dangerous. It was known as the biggest bug in the Sacred Gear system for a reason and this problem was only compounded by the fact that humans had become far more creative and intelligent since the Sacred Gear was designed.

This was never more accurate with its last wielder; he had raised an army of powerful creatures with near Godlike levels of power, before attempting to conquer the supernatural world by storm. To make matters worse he nearly succeeded and it was only thanks to a lucky sniper that he and his army was defeated.

Still even with their master dead these creatures took another five years to finally rout and scatter to the far reaches of the world, preying on any who were foolish enough to come into their territory. After this everyone agreed that if Annihilation Maker ever surfaced again then the three factions would kill the wielder before they ever had the chance to do this again.

"Kokabiel volunteered to take him out," informed Akeno, her expression getting grimmer the more she read.

"Well then we have nothing to worry about," sighed Rias in relief as she turned back to Akeno, only to freeze as she saw the expression on her Queen's face. "Akeno, what's wrong?"

The Queen looked up from her paper before silently placing it on the desk, "the Cadre lost contact with Kokabiel immediately afterwards…he hasn't been heard of since."

Suddenly ice ran down Rias' back and she looked up at her Queen in shock, "what about the Maou…what are they going to do about this?"

"Nothing…they don't want to reveal their spy's existence to Azazel, so until he asks for help, they're stuck," replied Akeno.

"Well that's just lovely," sighed Rias again.

"Buchou…there's one more thing," hesitantly spoke up Akeno.

"What is it now?" growled the Gremory heiress.

"We've been given a message addressed to all Devils living in Japan from the Maou, apparently they are ordering us to stay away from Kyoto for the time being," informed the black haired Devil.

Rias immediately raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Kyoto? Why? I thought we had a relatively good relationship with the Youkai of Kyoto?"

"They're not saying, all the report says is that some dangerous and unusual activity has been detected there. Apparently the Priests of Amaterasu are currently trying to deal with the problem."

"I see," muttered the heiress as she pondered the implications of this.

Rias then nodded before she took the paper off her Queen and threw it into the fire, "burn any other documents my brother sent us. With the Fallen in our territory it's too big a risk to leave them intact."

"Understood Buchou," replied the Queen as she and her King began collecting documents.

However, in their haste neither of them noticed a small bird that was watching them from outside the window, whom then flew off and headed towards the gym. Once there it landed in front of Alex and transformed into a copy of Rias herself before throwing itself around the human. "Well, what did you learn?" asked Alex, ignoring the daemon before him.

"Really Creator? I surprise you with this form and you don't even blink? You're breaking my poor innocent heart," pouted 'Rias.'

Alex raised his eyebrows, "are you really a daemon of Tzeentch and not Slaanesh? I don't have time for your pranks Changeling."

'Rias' shrugged before her form changed into that of long cloaked creature carrying a scythe of some kind in its hand. "So what did you find out?" repeated Alex.

And so Alex was brought up to speed with the current situation, "so there are Fallen Angels in the territory? What are the odds of Rias and her group taking care of them for us?"

"At the moment? Not likely but not impossible either. Plus, it would be a simple matter to engineer that situation," replied the Changeling in its whispery tone before it changed back to Rias' form.

"After all, if their leader orders it then they will obey," smirked 'Rias.'

Alex shook his head, "no I don't want to tip them off yet, for now just stick close and observe them. Pranking is allowed but just make sure not to compromise yourself."

"Of course, Creator," nodded 'Rias' as Alex walked off.

As Alex left 'Rias' gained a frown, this new information about his Sacred Gear was troubling. If they got discovered then his Creator would need allies, perhaps it should tell its master to speed up the plans in Kyoto…

As soon as it thought this the daemon shook its head, of course its master already knew this and had acted accordingly. The Changeling's job was just to protect the Creator until the plan came to fruition…whether the Creator liked it or not.

It was time to visit some Fallen Angels…

Raynare and the rest of her group growled in frustration as they tried to undo the damage that Freed had just caused to the nun. It had taken many hours of consoling but it seemed that they had finally managed to calm the nun down, although she still had Mittelt keep watch over her just in case.

Suddenly all of them shuddered as an unnatural power flowed into the abandoned church, causing all of them to draw their light weapons as they turned to face the door slowly open. Raynare's eyes widened as she saw an exact copy of herself walking into the church, her own twisted smirk on its face.

"Hello there Fallen, I've come to make you a deal," replied the doppelganger.

"Who…no, what are you?" demanded Raynare angrily, trying to cover up the unease she was feeling at the sight before her.

"What I am is of no importance, however what I have to tell you is," replied her copy as she kept walking towards the group, seemingly uncaring about the number of weapons being pointed at her.

"Oh and what's that?" growled Dohnaseek.

The copy of Raynare stopped in front of the Fallen Angels and their exorcists minions before replying with another smirk, "Rias Gremory and her group are planning to wipe you out."

"Ha let them come, we'll destroy them all," scoffed Raynare, only to be cut off by the condescending laughter coming from her copy.

"I'm sorry, but if you think you can beat them at your current level then you're more stupid then you look," laughed the doppelganger.

Before Raynare could rage it continued, "however, we can give you an edge over them. A power that they won't understand or be able to fight against."

"Oh and what would you want in return?" replied Raynare carefully.

"Simply that you make sure that Gremory is dead, but try to keep the rest of the peerage alive if possible," replied the copy.

"And what is this power? Who is your master?" asked Raynare, wanting more information.

"My master is Tzeentch but I think you would prefer Slaanesh, judging from our outfit," smirked the copy before gesturing to the clothes they both wore.

"Very funny, now who is Slaanesh? I've never heard of them before?" replied the Fallen Angel, finally beginning to lower her light spear.

Upon seeing this the exorcists and the rest of her companions did the same as they all stared at the copy of Raynare, whose smirk seemed to widen to Cheshire proportions. Slowly the copy told them of the power that was being offered to them, their eyes widening at what was being promised to them, even Freed seemed intrigued at the idea of both perfecting his sword skills and sex with anyone he wanted.

Finally, after glancing around at the rest of the group Raynare nodded, "alright, we accept your deal. Now how will you give us this power to fight the Devils, to make them suffer."

"First, take down those crosses and any other religious symbols, they will interfere with the process," ordered the doppelganger. "Next I'm going to need a test subject."

"Why?" asked Raynare as she motioned the exorcists to do as it said.

"I'm going to teach you how to create powerful shock troops, however power demands sacrifice and we will need a human for the spell," answered the copy.

Raynare thought back to the nun that had caused them so much trouble and smiled, "I think we can arrange that…when will the ritual be ready."

"In two days, in the mean time I expect this church to become a temple devoted to Slaanesh by the time I get back," laughed the copy as it left the church.

In the meantime, Raynare and the Stray Exorcists began tearing down the numerous crosses and other symbols of Christianity…it might have been an illusion, a trick of the eye caused by the rain but it almost seemed like the statues outside had begun crying as the church was slowly corrupted.

Kyoto was in chaos, there was no other way to describe it…

Two days ago every Youkai felt it…the energies of the world recoiling in horror as an unnatural eldritch energy began forming just outside their awareness and pressed itself down on all their minds. Voices screaming in horror or whispering promises of power into their heads, thankfully most were strong enough to fight them off but others…

"Blood for the Blood God!" cried her newest opponent.

Yasaka gave a brief prayer of sorrow to her deity Amaterasu as she watched her fox fire burn another poor insane Monkey Youkai to cinders before turning and using her immense strength to force another berserker back and incinerating him as well. She had already got reports of some of these insane cultist actually rising from the grave, so she was taking no chances.

"May Amaterasu have mercy on you," whispered the Priestess as she and her companions finished off the last of them in the area.

"That makes the second terrorist cell taken down, good job Head Priestess," congratulated one of the soldiers.

"Look for survivors, if any of these insane individuals are still alive bind them and return them to the temple…we may be able to save them with our lady's help," she ordered, not acknowledging the compliment as she took in the numerous captured human and Youkai bodies.

'This is bad, if any more citizens go missing then we won't be able to cover this up from the mundane human police force, hopefully this is the last cell remaining,' sighed Yasaka as one of her soldiers began rushing up to her.

"Ma'am we found signs that the victims were dragged to the lower level, likely to act as another sacrifice for these insane bastards," informed the Kappa Youkai, seeming to take comfort in the fact that the Head Priestess of Amaterasu herself was present.

After all it seemed that these cultists were hurt by the presence of holy symbols, which was why she had ordered the rest of her order to go out and help bring this chaos to an end. "Let's go put this madness to an end," growled Yasaka as she fingered her protective charm of Amaterasu, the white of her shrine maiden clothing standing out in the bloody battlefield.

Leading her troops further into the depths below Yasaka frowned as her enhanced sense of smell picked up the faint metallic scent of spilled blood, judging from the way the rest of her guard tensed they sensed it to. 'Once I find who's responsible for this I swear I'll have their head,' she growled angrily as they reached the bottom of the chamber.

As they all stormed into the remnants of the lower level of the underground cavern, all of them had to stop themselves from vomiting as they took in the site before them. Standing alone in an eight pointed star was a single figure holding an eerie looking staff in his hand, Yasaka gasped as she realized that the symbol was painted in blood.

"Ah Head Priestess, I was wondering when you'd show up," greeted the male, bowing mockingly before them as he pointed the staff at them.

Suddenly the dull glow that had surrounded the staff grew into a blinding white flash of light as unnatural eldritch energies were channeled into it. Just as quickly the figure's hood fell of its face to reveal a Nue Youkai with glowing eyes as he smiled coldly at Yasaka's group.

Yasaka's eyes widened as she felt the massive unnatural power flowing from the other realm and flooding the Nue before he smiled and the Priestess of Amaterasu was blown off her feet from a pulse of energy hitting them. Seeing their leader going down and with their eyesight returned, her guards roared in fury before they charged the Sorcerer, only for half of them to cry out in pain as Eldritch lightning erupted from his finger tips and impacted with their bodies. A demonic scream sounded throughout the cavern as more and more power was channeled into the staff, causing the sensitive ears of the Youkai to bleed from the pitch and volume.

The rest of the group skidded to a halt at this and warily began circling the Nue, watching as he slammed his staff into the blood red sigil beneath their feet. Yasaka watched in horror as chains erupted from the ground and bind her troops before the Youkai screamed in pain and agony.

"You cannot beat me, this weapon was granted to me by the Lord of Change himself!" laughed the Nue as a bolt of unnatural energy sprung from his hand and slammed into Yasaka.

The Priestess growled as she brought her protective charms up and chanted warding spells, allowing the bolt of eldritch energy to dissipate harmlessly along her protective barrier. However, before she could counter attack she found her body frozen as the Nue's voice echoed across her mind.

'Interesting, so this is your mind Head Priestess…you had quite an eventful childhood didn't you. Ah, I see you resent Amaterasu, you were chosen to succeed your mother before you...but that wasn't what you wanted was it? You don't have to feel ashamed my master will happily take you in,' whispered the Nue in her head.

"Get out of my head!" spat Yasaka, chanting protective prayers as the Shinto symbols all over her body began lighting up.

"What?" muttered the Nue in a shocked voice as he was forced from the Priestess' mind.

"You…" hissed Yasaka as blue flames surrounded her body as her amulet and the symbols of Amaterasu on her uniform glowed with the force of the Sun God they represented.

With the ferocity of a thousand suns the blue fox fire crashed into the surprised Nue who once again slammed his staff into the ground as black eldritch flames erupted around him in a dome, shielding the Nue from the Kitsune's wrath. Once the fox fire died down Yasaka growled as she saw her opponent weakly resting on his staff, the will and energy required to protect himself from the attack leaving him drained but alive.

The Priestess then turned to her troops and breathed a sigh of relief at seeing the surviving ones now struggling up from the ground once more, looking very injured but otherwise alive. Turning back to the Nue, Yasaka rushed forward as she saw him readied his staff again. The Nue cried out in pain as the fox fire slammed into his hands before the staff was kicked away for him by the Priestess whom then sent the Nue flying out of the ritual circle.

Immediately Yasaka felt a sigh of relief escape her as she herad the damned whispers slowly recede as the barrier between Kyoto and the other realm began repairing itself. 'That was too close, who knows what would have happened if the barrier had broken,' thought the leader of the Youkai.

Turning her attention back to the Nue she and the rest of her guards surrounded the smiling Youkai whom held up his hands, "I surrender."

"What?" questioned Yasaka in confusion, none of the other cultists had surrendered before they had all decided to fight to the death.

"Even a warped mind can see the odds stacked against it," replied the Nue with a shrug, before he was forced to the ground and restrained by her remaining guards.

Yasaka shuddered as she saw the result of the man's bloody ritual painted into the earth, the eight pointed star soaking into the ground as the greenery around it withered away and died. "What have you done?" she demanded, glaring at their prisoner.

The Youkai grinned up at Yasaka with unnatural eyes, "you can feel it can't you Priestess? The shell holding back the power is thinner, can you hear the voices? Whispering to us? Can you hear my master calling to you?"

"You're insane, rest like the rest of your corrupted kin," growled the Kitsune.

The man then laughed condescendingly as his eyes continued glowing with an eldritch light, "I have seen the truth, I have performed my master's will. The shell weakens with every sacrifice; your Gods can do nothing but watch as we steal their kingdoms from them."

"You dare to talk ill about our lady Amaterasu! We stopped your ritual, tell me how did that influence your master's plan!" growled Yasaka as blue fox fire began casting their ominous glow inches from his face before she turned to her guards. "Take him to the temple I want to question him further, to find out where the rest of these terrorists cells are hiding."

However, the Nue just smiled as he leaned in and whispered, "understand, Priestess, that everyone one of you, each of your so called champions with their petty ploys, is just a piece in the great game of my master…and even now you play your part in the service of my master Tzeentch."

The Priestess of Amaterasu said nothing as she watched him get dragged off by the guards before turning to the remains of the ritual and shuddered. Suddenly seeing something out of the corner of her eyes Yasaka frowned as she spotted the odd staff used by the sorcerer lying abandoned next to the ritual circle. 'All those deaths for something like this?' she sighed, weeping slightly at the needless loss of life for such an item as she walked up the staff.

The staff was longer than a man is tall and consisted of a single rod of roughly hewn black granite, and Yasaka noticed that it seemed to cast an unnaturally shaped shadow even as it drew in the nearby light. The staff also gave off a very peculiar glow that seemed to form some sort of pattern and the longer she stared at it the more she felt sick. However, the Youkai once again shuddered as she felt the unnatural power radiating from the staff, the same power residing in that other realm that all Youkai were feeling.

'I should take this staff back and have it examined by a specialist,' decided the leader of the Youkai faction as she stared at the weapon in her hands, her flesh crawling at the mere presence of it.

No, this weapon is too dangerous and powerful for anyone else to be trusted with…I should keep it close and experiment with it myself.

Upon hearing the voice whispering in her head Yasaka shook her head and frowned, that was true this weapon was powerful…maybe she could use it against whoever this 'Tzeentch' was. Besides she didn't know who else had changed allegiance and as a priestess of Amaterasu it was best to keep this weapon close, if only to protect others from it.

Indeed, but would she be able to figure out the purpose of this weapon without help? Perhaps the other followers of Amaterasu would be able to shed some light on the artifact?

Yes, that was a good idea, she would have to summon the rest of her order and together they would get to the bottom of what this artifact was and maybe even how to stop the maddening influence this power had over her people. As the Priestess left she didn't notice the ritual circle she had been standing in moments ago had been glowing a faint red again before the unnatural glow died down as the Youkai left its influence…nor that her protective symbol of Amaterasu now had a crack in it…

The five winged figure smiled as he watched the Sorcerer get taken away by the Youkai, soon he would be allowed to slaughter and fight for the glory of his new God. "I can't wait," announced what was once Kokabiel the Fallen Angel, the symbol of Khorne carved into his chest.

Well there we go another chapter done, this one mostly focused on the effects that Alex is having on the world and the set up for the later chapters. The next chapter should be more focused on Alex himself, or maybe Issei's point of view. Which would you prefer?

Also just wondering what everyone's favourite 40K faction is, as well as their favourite Corrupted Primarch and why.
