Dance With the Devil
DxD End
Disclaimer: I own none of the series involved.
Time to answer some reviews:
Akane will end the world with food? Yes, but not for the reasons you think.
Armiture: Yeah, Q-Bee's one attack made me go "Perfect" and since they're officially known as Soul Bees, I went with it. Besides, when Q-Bee wins a fight, she pulls out a large fork and knife and is prepared to eat her opponent.
tamagat: I originally planned for that, but as I got to this point, things changed.
Mr. Haziq: In Ranma 1/2 canon, if you dangle something a character wants in front of them, they jump for it. Akane with the Super Soba and Battle Douji, Ranma with a cure for Jusenkyo, Ryoga with the mark of the gods, it's only after, when they realize it's a bad thing, do they not want it.
Fateburn: Alas, that happens. Besides, Ranma can't change the world right away. This was the first major DxD event he was a part of after all.
AnimeA55Kicker: You'll find out.
BTW, why do all the FSN/DxD crossovers all copy and paste each other? Can anyone answer that?
"So..." Rias looked around, grateful everything seemed to be dying down. "Is that it?"
"Yes." Xenovia nodded as she slid down to sit on the ground. "It is..." She sighed, her grip loosening on her swords as they clattered to the ground. 'What am I going to do? If God is dead, what does that mean for me?' Or other members of the church or the world. What did it mean?
Ranma ignored them and ran up to where Bulleta was. "Hey..." He sighed as he saw her out cold, but breathing. "Great..." He found her arms, thankfully not far from her body, and brought them back to her. "Now how does..." He trailed off as he saw her arms starting to reattach themselves as he put them up against her shoulders. Ignoring that, he looked around and frowned as he realized something was missing.
"Where's Bishamon?"
(-)
"Really!" A sultry female voice huffed in annoyance. "You should have taken that sword and killed them, or better yet, just left with it."
"AnD hAvE tHeM cHaSe Me DoWn To ThE eNdS oF tHe EaRtH? nO, tHe WaY i ChOsE tO dO iT wAs BeTtEr In ThE lOnG rUn." Bishamon stated as it reattached its leg and arm. The two of them and a Chinese young man were in a clearing some distance from the battle.
"Boy, aren't you lucky?" The male in their group snorted at the armor. "If you were flesh and bone..."
"But I'm not. Hannya will stay quiet now." The female spirit in the armor giggled. "But those two might be pretty good with some more training."
"You lost to them." The woman snorted and Bishamon seemed to grin at her.
"Intentionally, you really think that if I could pull out a sword beam from Excalibur that I couldn't beat two whelps with less than thirty years of experience between them?"
"I dunno, an Angel thousands of years old just lost to the current White Dragon Emperor." The guy pointed out. "And that weird girl, the one with the long dark-red hair, she sucker punched him."
"Being overly cautious?" The woman snorted at him. "That's not like you, Pantyhose."
"DON'T CALL ME THAT!" He bellowed at her. "Just call me Tarou if you have to call me anything!" Scoffing, Tarou crossed his arms over his chest and leaned against a tree. "But anyway, that Angel was pretty damn strong, even if he was holding back. He could have ended that whole group by himself, save for the White Dragon Emperor, pretty easily."
"And that's my cue to appear." A new male voice spoke up as the air itself seemed to crack apart before a very tall and muscled blue-skinned man walked out. He smirked at the trio as the air fluttered his purple outfit.
"Jedah." The woman scoffed at him. "Late as usual."
"Now, now..." The Devil smirked while stroking his chin. "I have to deal with that annoying group. Besides, you agreed with my plan."
She scoffed at him. His plan was stupid and she knew she'd have to kill him later anyway. "Whatever, I'm only going along with this farce for a bit longer."
"Of course, princess." He smirked at her glare.
"So how come you didn't show up during that fight?" Tarou asked the Devil. "You're more than a match for that Angel."
"I wouldn't be able to move freely if I made myself known. There are beings out there that completely dwarf my powers." Jedah grinned and looked at Bishamon. "Do you still have..." He held his hand up and caught the item thrown at him. "Excellent." He grinned at the sheathed sword in his hands. Unsheathing it partially, his eyes seemed to light up in delight. "This is perfect for my plans." Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a large multi-colored crystal. "There you go, it took me some time to find one of this size."
Tarou snorted as he turned and left them. "So what's the plan now?"
The woman smirked at him. "I'm up next."

Meanwhile...
"So where are we?" Akane Tendo asked as she looked around the rocky mountain area that she and Ophis had appeared at.
"Unimportant." Ophis responded and nodded as a man with a circlet on his forehead and a staff walked out from behind a tree. "Bikou, where is..."
"Nyaoh!" There was someone yelling from on top of the tree before falling down and crashing onto her back from the tree branches. "I was just napping, Ophis!" The black haired woman with cat ears and, as Akane noted bitterly, large breasts complained as she sat up, rubbing the leaves out of her hair.
What made it worse, in Akane's opinion, was that this bimbo's right boob was noticably smaller than her left and even THAT boob was bigger than Akane's breasts were. 'That's not fair!' She mentally whined.
"Stop your complaining, Kuroka." Bikou muttered as he looked at Ophis and Akane. "So what are you doing with this untrained whelp?" He ignored Akane's cry of indignation when he said that and focused on the small girl.
"You're to train her. As she is, if I gave her her Balance Breaker, she would die."
"Oh? Another Sacred Gear user?" Kuroka raised an eyebrow at Akane. "Please don't tell me that it makes her grow extra arms or something stupid like that."
Ophis shook her head. "No. Anyway, I'll leave her to you. If you train her well, her Sacred Gear could take out Great Red."
"No shit! Really?" Bikou looked at Akane in shock. "Just how strong is her Sacred Gear?"
"Strong enough that she could kill God if he was still alive." Ophis disappeared in a dark mist.
"Well now, I'm curious..." Kuroka grinned at Akane. "I can't wait to test you." She licked her lips, hoping for something interesting.
"One question." Akane raised her hand and Kuroka tilted her head in confusion. "Do you always dress like a floozy?"
Bikou started laughing while Kuroka narrowed her eyes in annoyance at Akane and stood up to her full height. "I'll have you know, girl, that it's hard to, ACHOO!" She sneezed when some dust flew up into her nose, causing her breasts to bounce out of her outfit again. "Heaven forsaken dammit!"
Bikou ignored her as she fixed her outfit and spun his staff around a few times. "Just so you know, girlie, if Ophis has us training you, we won't stop until you're good enough to keep up with us or dead." He narrowed his eyes at her. "I wonder how you'll do." The current Monkey King leaped at her while Kuroka fixed her outfit and ran across the ground on all fours like a cat.
Bikou grinned, this was going to be fun.
(-)
"That wasn't very fun." Bikou grumbled as he looked at Akane's unconscious form. "Dammit, why did Ophis get my hopes up?!"
"That was all on you, Monkey Boy." Kuroka answered him as she healed Akane. "Well, either way, we have a lot to work with. She's barely above an untrained person."
"Feh. Might as well train her until either Arthur or Vali needs us." The idea of training a little brat wasn't very appealing to him.
Oh well, he needed something to do to pass the time.

Meanwhile...
Bulleta groaned as she woke up. "Now where..." She gasped as she realized a couple of things.
One, she wasn't hurting anywhere, probably due to the healing barrier she was in.
Two, she was in some sort of room she had never been in before.
And finally...
She was butt naked.
"What the hell is this?" She muttered and looked to the side as the door opened.
"I swear, people are just..." Ranma trailed off as he saw Bulleta sitting up. "Hi."
"...Hi." She sighed and flopped onto her back. There was no point in covering up, he had seen her naked before after all. "How long has it been since the battle?"
"It's two in the morning." Ranma answered her. "Most everyone went their own ways, I brought you to my place."
Bulleta stared at him and blushed. "You... Me?" She shook her head. "Thanks, I guess... How'd my arms get back on?"
"They healed themselves when I put them on your shoulders. The healing barrier to fix up what other issues you have."
"Other issues he says! HA!" She snorted in anger. "After what that fucker did to me, he gets to live?! I didn't even remove his ribs yet!" She sat up and huffed in anger.
Ranma grimaced as he sat down just on the outside of the barrier. "Well that's a pleasant mental image."
Bulleta snorted at him. "I imagine that everyone wanted to kill me after what I did to him."
"I don't, if that makes you feel better?"
"It doesn't." Bulleta grumbled and hung her head. "How come you're not disgusted by me?"
"Remember the first time we met?" Ranma asked her rhetorically. "That necromancer?"
Bulleta suddenly grinned at that. "Oh yeah! All those rotting zombies! That town had what? Three thousand people? I think we killed over twice as many zombies that day before we killed the necromancer." That had been fun. "That was when I heard Lilith calling you Master too, wasn't it?"
"I would think so." Ranma rolled his eyes at the naked blonde. "You chased us for months after that."
"Yeah, I suppose you already saw everything about me, huh?" Bulleta sighed and shook her head. "Just give me a shirt and pants and I'll..." She trailed off as Ranma slid something to her. "My Uzi! How did you..?"
"Nabiki called me up and told me where it was, so I went and got it while you were out cold." Ranma waved her off. "So what are you going to do now?"
"I dunno, travel a bit, get my bearings again." Bulleta sighed. "After being raped by that fuck-face for I don't know how long I kind of just want to go on a murder-spree."
"Sounds fun." Ranma said dryly. "Your butler's worried about you."
"I'll have to call him then." The naked girl sighed again. "Hey, Ranma, why aren't you freaked out by me?"
"Bulleta, the first time we met, I saw you put a bullet through a four year old girl that had just been turned into a zombie." Ranma said flatly. "And that was after I saw a zombie eat its whole family." It was... a very unpleasant memory in his life. "Not exactly thrilled with what you did to that freak though."
"Feh..." Bulleta snorted at him. "I have one question for you. How come you only slept with me that one night?" It was months after the zombie event and Bulleta remembered that she had been really interested in him and why she followed him for all those months.
Ranma looked at her in confusion. "That's because you said it was a one night stand."
"Huh?" Bulleta gave him a confused look. "What do you mean?"
"Well..."
*Flash*
"So this is a one-night stand, right?" Thirteen year old Ranma asked as the petite blonde spread her pussy lips and rubbed her crotch over his erect penis.
"Yeah, sure, whatever," she licked her lips at the tied up boy, "just make it good, okay?"
"Sure."
*End Flash*
"Oh yeah..." Bulleta chuckled and rubbed the back of her head. "Well, when I first was chasing you down, I was curious how you had a succubus calling you "Master", so I was hoping to find out what you did and then I was going to sell you or that information to the highest bidder."
"So why'd you keep following me?"
"I wanted to ride your dick again!" Bulleta yelled at him, her face flushed. "You weren't bad back then either."
"So that's the reason..."
"Duh!" She snorted and laid on her back. "So how long until you let me out of here?"
Ranma shrugged at her. "Probably tomorrow, you should be fine by then." Ranma stood up and turned to leave. "But, Bulleta..." He looked over his shoulder. "You're welcome to stay here at any time."
She snorted at him. "Don't give me an open invitation like that, you never know when I might pop in and want you."
Ranma smirked at her. "When you get your frustration vented, feel free."
Seeing him leave, Bulleta growled and punched the ground. "Damn you, Ranma! Why do you have to be such a nice guy?! Can't you hate me like everyone else does?!"
Outside the door, Ranma sighed as he heard her yell that. "But I don't..." He whispered and walked off. He had other things to do right now.

The next day...
In the Occult Research Club, Rias frowned as she listened to Lilith explain Soul Bees. "So they're just..."
"Basically Makai locusts, yes. Except that they don't eat plants, they eat fleshy things and then multiply. The only thing they think of is "eat, kill, eat, kill" and nothing else." The succubus shuddered as she remembered what it did to the Cerberus. "There's a reason that their populations are generally heavily watched and not allowed to grow too large."
"I'd ask why they aren't disposed of and made extinct, but I suspect that they're great scavengers." Rias replied, getting a snort and nod from Lilith. "I hope you don't mind if I send a report to the Devil Kings with a warning of "kill on sight" for any Soul Bees that are seen in the future."
"Nope! Those things freak me the fuck out!"
"Good." Rias nodded as Lilith turned and left.
"Well, that was probably the freakiest thing I've ever seen." Akeno said to her King, getting a nod from Rias. "Some day we should find a way to get to Makai, just to see the freaky things it has."
Rias smirked, that would be interesting. "I think that we'd see something that would scar us for life and make us wish brain bleach was a thing."
Akeno laughed.

A few days later...
Irina looked at Xenovia in both sadness and anger. "Why?! Why would you let yourself become a Devil?!" She hissed, doing all she could to keep her voice down in the airport terminal. There was a private jet in the runway preparing to return to the Vatican. The remains of Valper's body had already been loaded up and the only thing left was the sword fragments in the bag Irina was holding, as well as the Excalibur Destruction that was strapped to her back.
"I... I have my reasons, Irina, I'm sorry." She couldn't tell Irina why, the girl was far more deep into the faith than she was and Xenovia worried it would shatter her. "I guess this is it, huh?" Xenovia found it odd that her eyes were burning as she looked at her long-time friend.
"Yeah..." Irina nodded, her eyes glistening. "Just because you had a crisis of faith doesn't mean you should give up everything." She turned and stormed off as Xenovia watched her go.
"I'm sorry, Irina." Xenovia whispered and turned to walk off.
As she got closer to the terminal, Irina looked back at Xenovia's retreating form and bit her lip. "Xenovia..."
"Are you really going to let your friendship end like that?" A familiar voice spoke up and Irina jumped in surprise as she saw Lilith walk out from behind a pillar. "Aren't you friends?"
"Yes, but she became a Devil, I'm still a servant of God." Irina looked at Lilith sadly. "And what do you care?!"
"I don't." She shrugged at Irina. "But the instant you step on that plane you're her enemy, right?" Irina nodded at the succubus. "That doesn't mean you're enemies now, right?"
"But..." Irina was faltering as Lilith walked up to her and put a hand on her shoulder.
"If you leave now, hurting as you are, you're going to forever regret it, won't you?"
"Why are you..."
Lilith shrugged at her. "Ra, ah, Master must have rubbed off on me a lot. Anyway." She stepped back, waving her hand. "Go. At least go say goodbye with a smile on your face and get rid of your regrets."
"What about..." Irina motioned to the bag in her hands and the sword on her back.
"I'll watch them." Lilith rolled her eyes as Irina looked at her in gratitude. "Just go."
"Thank you!" Irina put her stuff down and ran back towards Xenovia. "XENOVIA!" She cried out, trying to get her friend to stop.
As she left, Lilith let out a smirk and reached into the bag, pulling out the hilt of the fused Excalibur. "This is exactly what I needed." She said as she used a small spell to make it disappear from sight.
(-)
"Irina?" Xenovia looked at the Church girl in question. "What are you, OOOOMPH!" She gasped as Irina suddenly hugged her tightly.
"I'm sorry!" Irina cried out into her shoulder. "I know that the next time we meet, we'll probably be enemies, but right now, I just want to say, I'm sorry. I don't know why you did it, but I'm still your friend."
Xenovia smiled and hugged Irina back. "Thank you. Irina, if... If our sides fight again..."
Irina pulled away from Xenovia and smiled brightly, tears flowing down her face. "I hope you and Issei will be the ones to fight me. If I have to die in battle, I'd rather die to my friends than strangers."
Xenovia nodded at her, tears welling up in her eyes. "Likewise. But, Irina, I hope... I hope that you won't forget me."
"I won't." She took a deep breath and took a step back. "Even though, as soon as I leave, we'll be enemies, you'll always be my friend."
"Likewise." Xenovia smiled as Irina walked backwards from her, the two friends waving at each other and tears running out of their eyes. 'For some reason, I feel a lot better now.'
After getting close to the terminal, Irina turned around to see Lilith still standing there over the bag and the bundled sword. "Thank you."
Lilith waved her off and pushed off from the pillar. "Don't mention it. Anyway, see ya." Waving the twin-tailed girl off, she smiled and started to walk in a direction away from both Irina and Xenovia.
As Lilith walked, her torso slowly got taller, her breasts got bigger with each step, her outfit changed from Kuoh Academy's school girl outfit to a pair of black dress pants and a white dress shirt that was strategically unbuttoned to reveal a healthy amount of cleavage, her hair got longer before shifting from purple to an emerald green while her eyes changed to a similar color to her hair.
"I have to admit, that other form is very useful." Her voice, once child-like was now sensual and seductive. With a snap of her fingers, the fused hilt of Excalibur appeared in her hand. "Let's go." With a crack of darkness, she disappeared in the hallway.

Meanwhile...
Lilith looked at Mittelt, who was sitting at the kitchen table, moping. "Okay, what's wrong?"
"Just thinking what Kokabiel said..." Mittelt sighed and slumped in her chair. "That I'm his..."
"So what?" Lilith asked as she walked out of the training area and sat down next to her. "Maybe he is, maybe he's lying, who cares?" She poked Mittelt in the chest. "Who cares? You're Mittelt, part of our group, our family, he tried to kill you, we won't."
Mittelt gave Lilith a smile. "Thanks."
"Besides..." Lilith grinned at her. "If he's your father, you're better off where you are right now."
Mittelt chuckled and nodded at her. "Yeah!" She looked over as the door opened, revealing Ranma and Atsuko walking in with groceries. "Yeah, this is our family."
"Ugh, gag me with a cat." Bulleta, in shorts and a tank-top that she was borrowing, groused from the top of the steps. "Seriously, Ranma? You get a harem of lovey-dovey idiots like this?"
Ranma snorted at her. "You're welcome to join."
"Maybe later, after I've had some insulin shots." Bulleta smirked at him as the others laughed. Still, she had to admit, this relaxed atmosphere wasn't bad, even if she was certain that they would rather her be gone.

Elsewhere...
There was a knocking sound and the old man inside snorted. "Go away!" It was a nice day, why would anyone bother him? When the knocking continued, he sighed and walked to the door and opened it. "WHAT?!"
"How rude." The gorgeous green haired woman narrowed her eyes at him. "And when Bishamon told us that you were the best around."
Looking over the woman's shoulder, he saw a Chinese boy that he had never seen before and Bishamon. "What do you all want?"
The woman held up a sword hilt and then a large magical crystal while Bishamon held up the remains of Kien and Muramasa in its arms.
"Well..." The old man grinned at them. "This could be interesting." He stroked his beard. "I assume that's why you wanted your armor to be able to absorb magical energy, Bishamon?"
"Of course." The female spirit said as he invited them inside and they put the swords on his table. "Give me that hilt."
The green-haired woman snorted and gave it to the armor. "Whatever, what good will..." When an aura in the general shape of the fused Excalibur formed, though it was pulsating between green, gold and red. "What is..?"
"The reason I let that boy win was because I wanted to feel what his Holy Devil Sword was like."
"Interesting..." The old man smirked as he took the crystal from the woman. "Do you want me to repair Kien and Murasame?"
"No." The armor shook its head. "I want you to fuse them into the sword you'll be working on for me. One that's a fusion of Demonic, Devil and Holy energies."
"You know without the core of whatever this sword was I can't get the special properties it held."
"Just do what you can." Bishamon said and turned to leave. "You have only a few days to finish my sword."
"It'll take me ten days at least." The old man sighed as they left. "Well, who needs sleep?"
Besides, he wondered just what kind of Holy Sword this had been before it had been broken.
"This should be fun." The old man grinned and got to work.
End Chapter
Yes, that's the end of this arc. Onto the next one!
As for Bulleta, she's going to disappear from the story for awhile, so she's off doing stuff to work through what she needs to.
As for Kuroka's right boob being smaller than her left boob, blame the anime. If you look at her in Seasons 2 and 3, there are plenty of instances where it looks like her right breast is notably smaller than her left. So I'm running with it.
However, seeing you guys wanted Lilith to give Xenovia and Irina some punishment, I decided to write a bonus scene, just for you guys! This wasn't even in my earlier drafts.
Bonus Scene
After introducing herself as the newest member of the Occult Research Club, Xenovia looked at Lilith and gulped nervously, after everything she said to and about the succubus, she was surprised that there was no hint of anger coming from her. "I would like to apologize to both you and your master." She bowed to Lilith and Ranma.
"Hmm, I dunno..." Lilith trailed off, a dangerous gleam in her eye as she stood up. "Rias, can we borrow your desk?"
"If you use it to seduce her, I won't forgive you." Rias sighed, but stood up and walked away, wondering what Lilith had planned.
"No seducing, I promise." Lilith had a Cheshire cat-like grin that had most everyone shivering. "Anyway, Xenovia, come here."
Walking over to the desk, Xenovia wondered what Lilith was planning before tendrils whipped out from the desk, wrapped around her wrists and legs and pulled her against the desk.
"You know, just because you apologized doesn't mean I forgive you." Lilith said, ignoring the cries of shock from everyone. "So, tell you what. I'll forgive you on one condition."
"What?" Xenovia gulped, she felt completely helpless.
"Lilith..." Ranma said in a low growl. "No club room sex."
"I wasn't planning on it." Lilith said, completely serious.
"Okay, NOW I'm worried." Ranma muttered, knowing Lilith's sex drive and hearing her say that made him wonder just what she was going to do.
"See, Xenovia, I don't mind that you thought I was a weak little Demon," Lilith began before grabbing Xenovia's skirt and flipping it up, revealing her white panties to the club. "I don't care that you insulted me over it."
"He..! HEY!" Xenovia's face turned bright red as she felt Lilith pull her panties down, exposing her ass and privates to everyone.
"Don't look!" Asia jumped at Issei, covering his eyes.
"What I don't like is that you insulted Master!" Lilith snarled before pulling out a wooden paddle. "Naughty girls get spanked!"
Kiba was polite enough to look away, well, mostly look away, he couldn't help but sneak glance every time he heard a meaty thwack as Lilith slapped Xenovia's butt. Seeing her firm and fairly large butt jiggle with each slap, Kiba felt himself needing to shift so that he wouldn't attract too much attention to himself.
Rias twitched, she really should stop this, after all, Xenovia was her knight now! But Xenovia did insult Lilith and Ranma... 'I guess a spanking like this is better than Lilith wanting to actually hurt her.'
Ranma just sighed as he counted off the slaps. "Ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen," he winced as Lilith let loose a really painful slap, "oww..." He felt for Xenovia, he really did, but watching her butt jiggle and turn red was a rather pleasant sight.
Mittelt was fighting the urge to grin. Partially because it wasn't her being humiliated and partially because she felt Xenovia deserved this.
"Oww! OWW!" Xenovia cried out, her ass really burning and tears forming in her eyes. Sure, she had taken worse before, but the pain on top of the humiliation of being spanked in front of everyone was really getting to her.
"Ara ara..." Akeno smirked. "Lilith, if you really want to make it stick, you need to show her some loving too. Don't just spank like that, you need to pull back and let us all soak in the sight of her punished booty." Her face flushed as Lilith stopped and looked at her with a raised eyebrow. "It's even more effective if you slap along the insides of her thighs and up to her..."
"Okay, that's enough." Rias spoke up, stopping this right now. "Lilith, are you done?" She could see tears falling from Xenovia's face at that moment.
"Hmm, yeah. I'm not interested in making her a submissive masochist." Lilith said, much to Akeno's disappointment. Grabbing Xenovia's panties, she pulled the up, causing the bound girl to let out a squeal as they were wedged tightly across her pussy and in-between her butt-cheeks. "But she has to go home with her panties like this."
"I will! Please stop spanking me!" Xenovia would have gladly worn her panties like that all night if it meant that Lilith wouldn't spank her anymore.
Seeing Xenovia sobbing and her tear-soaked face, Lilith nodded and undid the shadow-binds holding her down. "Good, now I forgive you and your sexy ass." She smiled and skipped back to Ranma, sitting in his lap. "I feel better now."
Ranma sighed and resisted the urge to apologize to Xenovia. "Now that... You had coming." He wasn't sure why he felt a strange sense of ironic satisfaction when he said that.
Xenovia whimpered, but nodded.
End Dance With the Devil DXD
Omake by Innortal
Bulleta looked up, spotting the sleeping form of the one male she trusted, cuddling her close.
It was times like this she dreamed of a future, of three children, a two story house with a white picket fence ...as they all blasted zombies attacking them.
'Dreams for another day', she thought cuddling deeper into his hug, smelling his scent.
