April Fools! The next chapter's here in only 2 days! I actually had it written before the prologue, so that's why its early. Before we begin, if you have any questions, feel free to ask in a PM or in a review. Without further adu, let's start!


Chapter 1: Stabbed through the Heart

While walking home, Anthony came to a stop on a bridge which overlooked one of the three rivers that flowed through Kuoh. His mind kept drifting back to that Rias chick. He only had 3 words about her...

Bella.

Bella.

And hot-damn Bella! He couldn't believe his luck, capturing the attention of such a hot girl out of the blue like that. Then again, she was probably already taken. Leaning against the bridge railings, he overlooked the river below the orange sky, as the sun set on another day.

"Umm… excuse me?... Your Anthony, right?" A meek voice asked from behind him. Turning his neck toward the sound of the voice, he spotted a girl with a slender figure and long black hair, wearing the girl version of the school uniform. Anthony had to admit, this new girl was pretty cute. The girl looked very nervous for some reason, her feet shuffling back and forth.

"Ya see any other Italian around here? What's up?" He said, kindly. If he learned one thing about talking with girls, it's that they like a charismatic guy. It was a good way to crack the ice before getting to know the person underneath.

The girl blushed at this before taking a few steps forward. "H-Hi. M-My name is Yuuma. I n-need to ask you something" said the girl, calling herself Yuuma.

"Ok, what's wrong?" Anthony asked her.

"Will you... will you..." Yuuma began to ask, trailing off each time.

"Will you fix my car? Will you make me some pastina?" Anthony joked, trying to lighten the mood to make it more comfortable. Looking up with determination, she blurted out quickly: "WILL YOU GO OUT WITH ME?!"

Anthony was caught off guard, but only for a second. This wasn't the first time a cute girl asked him out without a proper explanation. Throughout middle school, girls would approach him and ask him because "it was a dare, I had to do it", then walk away with their friends giggling. It was sort of a rite of passage kinda deal.

"Ok... real funny. I know the game" he sighed.

"W-What?" Asked Yuuma with a shocked face. She was a good faker, Anthony had to admit... that almost sounded genuine.

"Go tell your friends in the bushes over there you failed, you could use an acting coach," Anthony said, pointing to the bushes with his index finger. Were their girls in there? He didn't really know, but wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. "It was a nice attempt though, you almost had me" he continued, beginning to walk away.

SMOOSH!

Suddenly, Anthony felt softness against his back. Despite her figure, she had pretty nice... he mentally slapped himself, getting back to reality.

"It's not a joke, I swear! You seem to be a great, gentle guy. You always get those Perverts to back off the girls locker rooms... and your real handsome and... eep! S-sorry!" Said Yuuma, sounding like she was heartbroken upon rejection, but didn't want to give up without a fight, then went back to being shy.

As she let go and held herself in shame, Anthony couldn't help but blush. Being called cute was one thing, but handsome was another... was this girl actually serious? Did she REALLY just want to go on a date? If this was some kind of prank, this girl was stupefacente at it. But on the odd chance that it was real...

"Your serious? Someone like me? I'm not some random guy to practice on, am I?" Asked Anthony. Yuuma looked utterly shocked at his question, and shook her head vigorously, her hair going with it.

"No, NOOO! I really mean it! I wanna... wanna... get to know you better..." Yuuma said, becoming shy again. Anthony couldn't help but chuckle, this girl kinda reminded him of the in-training nun he used to know or that pink-haired girl from a manga he used to read... all she was missing now was a rosary...

He certainly couldn't deny her after that. When he told her as such, she came at him like a blur, hugging him tightly. He was more-so aware of her generous curves, including the ones at the front... "THANK YOU! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!" Yuuma cheered with glee.

-TIME BREAK-

Sunday... the dawn of the date had arrived. They had an amazing time! Trying on clothes, laser tag, a huge mall and even lunch at a diner; Yuuma looked like she was having a ball! As the day came to an end, the new couple found themselves in the park as dusk fully set in. Yuuma held Anthony's hand as they walked and stopped in front of the park fountain... Kuoh seemed that have a fascination with them as one was present almost everywhere they went. Yuuma brought Anthony out of his thoughts by suddenly moving ahead and looking up into his eyes.

"I had a wonderful day today. Thank you so much, Anthony" Yuuma said with a bright smile of her face. Anthony couldn't help but smile back, this girl was too cute.

"No problem, had to make sure our first date was a good one" he said, sheepishly. While he had been on dates with the in-training nun back in America, he wouldn't actually call them 'dates' as they were only a few minutes at a time, then she had to return to the church for a bible study.

Yuuma then began to blush for some reason, he feet where shuffling again. "C-Can I... ask you a question?" She asked, shyly.

Anthony's heart fluttered for a second, the way she said it was adorable. "Sure, everything ok?" He asked.

"Yes, everything was perfect, but I have to ask..." she began, getting close to Anthony's ear. "Would you die for me?"

The Italian-American flinched, not expecting that sentence to come out of Yuuma's mouth. "Uhhhh... well, if ya mean I'll take a bullet for you... then sure" he said, trying to hide his discomfort. The way the girl said it was kinda unsettling.

"Oh, that's sweet... how about a spear?" Yuuma asked, her voice suddenly sounding older.

What Anthony saw next ... will forever haunt him...

The girl he was just dating moments ago was suddenly dressed in extremely provocative clothing which appeared out of nowhere, barely covering her body at all. Her bust had also increased. But the thing that really got him was the pair of black wings which had sprouted from behind her... actual wings! They were as black as a raven! Holding up her arms, some kind of spear manifested out of thin air, looking like it was made of pure light. Looking at Anthony with the eyes of a predator and a sadistic smirk, she threw it right at him!

Shaking off his initial terror, he dodged to the side, but this crazy bitch was scarily accurate, the spear of light just grazing his brand new shirt. Another second, he would have been an Italian-Kebab! "HEY! CHE CAZZO A MATTER WITH YOU?!" Anthony shouted in Italian, with a mix of both fear and anger. Angry because he was attacked, fear because this was a unknown creature.

"You promised you'd die for me, so DIE!" Said Yuuma, making another spear and tossing it, faster this time! Anthony once again dodged, this time by rolling. Part of him wanted to run, but another part of him was curious as to why this girl was attacking him. Now that he got a better look at her wings, they looked feathery... like an angels... was she an angel of death, or was this what his Grandmother meant by: "heaven's angels will carry your spirit to heaven?"

"W-What about our date?" He asked, but Yuuma just laughed at him.

"Don't worry, that date was everything I could've wanted. You really know how to treat a girl... but I still have to kill you" she answered, preparing another spear. Sadly, Anthony couldn't avoid this one completely, it ended up going straight through his right leg. The pain was incredible! The spear, like the 2 others from earlier, vanished into thin air after a few seconds, leaving Anthony with a gaping hole in his leg. Yuuma showed no remorse upon her act... on the contrary, she looked pleased with herself.

"It's been fun, but you were just too dangerous to live. Couldn't have your Sacred Gear awaken, Azazel's orders" said Yuuma, throwing one last spear of light, this time into Anthony's chest! It missed his heart, but it still hurt like hell. Sneering at the downed human, she considered her work done and she flew off.

'Sacred Gear... che diavolo è quella merda? A new Yu-Gi-Oh card series?' Anthony thought to himself... and Azazel, why did that name sound familiar? He'll worry about that later. Right now, he needed to get to a hospital and... pfft, that'll be a good story.

-FANTASY-

"Good evening, Mister Messuri. I'm Doctor... whoa. The fuck happened to you?" Asked the ER doctor, who just walked into the room after moving the curtain. He was looking down at a clipboard with the patients information, but didn't expect the damage he was seeing.

"Oh nothing, just an angel stabbed me in the heart after our date..." Anthony said. The doctor stared at him with a cocked eyebrow, and left behind the curtain. "Wait, where ya going?" The Italian called out. The doctor returned with a... "H-H-HEY! Put that syringe down! I'M NOT CRAZY!"

-END FANTASY-

Anthony collected all his remaining strength and, with a groan of intense pain; rose to his feet, holding the gaping hole in his chest. He only moved about 2 feet before falling to his knees... he lost allot of blood, he wasn't gonna last much longer. He called for help, but it came out as a horse wail. He tried again... same result. Was this it? Was getting killed by one of Gods servants his fate? What had he ever done wrong? He fell to the ground as these questions ran through his head... he didn't want to die. As his eyes began closing, he saw someone approach him... that angel come to finish the job?... no. This new figure was wearing a skirt, one of Kuoh Academy's...

He blacked out, darkness overtaking him...

-TIME BREAK-

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

"GAAAAAAH!" Shouted Anthony, gasping from brea-... wait. Why was his alarm going off? Shutting it off, he looked around. He was back in his home, in his own room... how? Was that all just a dream? No way... it felt real... TOO real.

And when did he take his shirt off... and the rest of his clothes? He started feeling his chest... nothing. He ran a hand down his leg.. still nothing. No blood, no holes... just skin. "I... I'm alive?... maybe I should stop eating ravioli's before bed, but why the hell am I naked?" He asked aloud. Chalking it up to his dinner Saturday night, he started getting up. Putting his hands on the covers to pick himself up...

Smoosh.

"The hell? What's my pillow doing under..."

It was NOT his pillow.

"S-S-SANTO CIELO!" He yelped, seeing something or rather, some-THINGS, that he didn't think he'd see until he was married. It was not one, but 2 mounds of flesh, attached to a girl in... "A girl... in my bed? N-N-No way, no fucking way!" He stuttered. If this were any other situation, this would be awesome. Either the girl heard his voice or she was getting up herself, because she began to stir. Another thing Anthony noticed was the distinct color of the girls hair... red. Despite what he saw in mangas' and anime back in the U.S., odd color hair like that wasn't common in Japan. Their was only one person he KNEW had that color...

"A-Anthony?" She asked, the voice indeed belonging to none other than one of the 2 'Greats'; Rias Gremory herself! Why was she in his house, let alone; HIS FREAKING BED! AND NAKED! She began moving, rubbing the sleep out for her eyes before getting up. "Hey..." she said, yawning; rather cutely. As she stretched, her impressive breasts also jiggled. His eyes couldn't help but lock-on, but once he realized what he was doing, he covered his eyes.

'This isn't happening, this isn't happening; I did not just wake up next to Rias naked, I DID NOT wake up next to her naked' he thought to himself, denying what he was seeing. How the hell did she end up in his room anyway?

"Good morning" Rias said, cheerfully. "Come on, don't be like that. Aren't you happy?" She asked, seeing that the boy she just slept with was covering his face. Anthony lowered his hands just a little, seeing that Rias was leaning on her arm and knee, with a smile on her face.

"Um... about what? Did we...?" He asked. For the love of him, he couldn't remember crawling into bed with her or vice versa.

"Hmhm, no. Don't worry, I'm still a virgin" Rias replied, then her eyes started drifting down Anthony's body. The Italian-American couldn't tell if she was checking him out or not. "... although..." she added, her eyes fixated on something.

Didn't take a genius to figure out what she locked onto, so Anthony grabbed a pillow that happened to be next to him. "HEY! S-STOP PEAKING!" He said, embarrassed.

"Awww, and I was just enjoying the view..." Rias teased. Anthony's heart stopped for a second, she liked what she saw? He shook those thoughts aside, but that was a sentence he'd soon never forget.

"So uh, did you at least take me out to dinner first, or is saving my life how you get your kicks?" He joked, though it was mostly to calm himself.

Rias wasn't expecting that response, he remembered everything? That was odd, usually being reincarnated had some side effects. The day she met Anthony and sensed something about him, she had sent her servant Koneko to trail him. After a few days of doing it, she couldn't see nothing special about him, until she heard that Fallen Angel say something about a Sacred Gear. Even before she left, he was able to avoid her attacks (which was impressive enough for a human) AND still be conscious enough to call for help.

The white-haired first year called Rias through some type of red circle, and that lead to Rias reviving Anthony through an Evil Piece... for some reason, it took all 8 of her Pawn Pieces before the reincarnation was successful. Not even her remaining Rook, Bishop or Knight Pieces alone would work. Still... he should have had a memory lapse or something because of the trauma his body had endured. Shrugging it off, she gave an innocent chuckle.

"Yes. You took quite a lethal blow, but you recovered in just a single night. I must say, your body is amazing... all parts of it" she said, slyly. Anthony blushed again, knowing exactly what she was talking about. He then realized an important fact:

Anthony: That doesn't explain why we're undressed.

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

Female voice: ANTHONY! ANTHONY, ARE YOU OK? You were just screaming.

SHIT! It was his neighbor, Pesca! She and him were very close friends, he even gave her a house key for his apartment... "AH! PESCA! P-P-PLEASE DON'T COME IN! I'm fine, I swear! Sto solo, avendo una brutta mattinata, non c'è niente di cui preoccuparsi..." He stuttered, trying to get his neighbor to go away. He got up and started darting his head back and forth, trying to figure out what to do. If she saw Rias... speaking of whom, she was just watching the Italian get worked up, almost like it was good entertainment. Was she enjoying this?!

Pesca, hearing the commotion from outside, unlocked the door and followed the sounds. She kept Anthony talking to found out where he was, as he had the biggest apartment in the whole building. He also sounded flustered while still calling down at her to not enter to premises, which she knew was one of his problems. When Anthony was caught by surprise or got angry, he'd start bawling out random stuff in Italian. Not only was it cute and funny, it was also useful to find out where he was.

"Anthony, I'm coming in!" Persa said, having approached his bedroom door. She heard: put this over you, NOW!... What was going on in there?

She was NOT prepared... the poor thing.

What she saw, was Anthony over a red-haired girl, who had the largest breasts she'd ever seen for a teenager. Pesca was 21-years-old, and even she wasn't that size. That's saying nothing about Anthony's face, his jaw looked like it came loose and was hanging by a thread.

"Good morning, ma'am. How are you today?" Rias responded without a shred of embarrassment.

Pesca's words were caught in her throat, unable to answer right away. "I-I'm... fine. I... didn't know you were busy... I'll just... be going..." she simply said, closing the door slowly as she left.

Anthony fell back as soon as the door closed. "Dear God... make me a bird... so I can fly... far, far away..." he said, his voice muffled by the blanket on the floor. Again, Rias was surprised. He just said a word that would normally cause Devil's, especially newly created ones, to have a mind-spiting headache. Yet, he made no such moves that would tell her he was in pain... maybe he had a high tolerance for it?

"It's quite a party here in the human world, isn't it?" She asked, sitting up in the bed with her legs hanging off.

"Oh yeah... SO much fun..." Anthony muttered, his face still buried in the blanket. Sighing, he picked himself up. "Sorry about that, I panicked" he apologized.

"Its fine, I'm not complaining... I kinda liked being dominated" Rias teased.

By now, Anthony assumed this was her personality type and just went with it... didn't mean it didn't strike a few emotions. "Sure ya did" he said dryly, looking up at Rias, but immediately looked back down upon seeing... lady parts. "Look, not that you aren't attractive, but your not... covered."

"Would you like me to stand so you can have a better view?" Asked Rias. Anthony heard the mattress make noise, so it was obvious the Devil was standing up.

'Yup... definitely ain't human' Anthony thought, as no human girl would say something like that, even WITH her personality traits.

"You don't like what you see?" Rias teased some more, faking an annoyed tone.

"If I answer truthfully, my mama will rise from her grave and beat me with her shovel" said Anthony, being semi-cryptic and still not looking at her.

"Better?" Rias asked. Hearing the sound of fabric against skin, Anthony's curiosity got the best of him and he looked up at the red-head, seeing she finally put her panties on. Taking a deep breath, he finally relaxed.

"Yes, very. I'm not the type of guy to sneak a peak until I get prior authorization... not everyday some random girl shows up in my bed in her Birthday Suit" Anthony said.

"I suppose, but my magic only works with close contact" Rias explained.

'Suuuuuure it does' thought Anthony, as that sounded utterly ridiculous. Magic was magic, right?... So what did clothes have to do with it?!

"Besides, I need you..." Rias continued, making Anthony flinch. "Mind doing this for me?" She continued, her bare back facing Anthony. What she 'needed', was his assistance in refastening her bra. At first, he hesitated, but gave in since at this point, there wasn't much else to be embarrassed about... they both already seen each others nuda gloria. As soon as Anthony finished, he hugged Rias slowly from behind, something she didn't expect.

"I don't know how you did it... but thank you, for saving my life... even though I probably didn't deserve it" Anthony thanked. What could Rias say? It was her turn to get as red as her hair. She honestly didn't anticipate this boy to be so... gentle and kind.

"Y-Your welcome" was all she managed to get out. She didn't understand why, but something about his touch made her... feel at peace. Yes... there was something special about him indeed...
