Writer Note: Akihito is the name his father picked and it is spelled the same as the king of Japan from 1989 to 2019(quit this year), kanji: 明仁. His middle name, Giovanni, was picked by his mother because she wanted him to keep his Italian heritage since she wasn't allowed to make his first name, he also does not use this part of his name in Asia. His surname remains his father's Kuromiya, meaning "black shrine." kanji: 黒宮.

Part 3: The Hunter

"YOU SON OF A BITCH! I WANT A DIVORCE YOU INSUFFERABLE BASTARD!" a woman yells at her husband while she holds her newborn child, "Baby it was a mistake, please beli-" "SHUT THE FUCK UP CHEATING HEART BREAKING FUCK!" fueled by rage at her husband, she storm's off. "You don't have to pay child support, hell keep the house. I'd rather move to Italy than live with you!"

The woman packs her bags and takes her child with her, all the while her husband begs her to stay. "Baby, come on. I was drunk and I was not thinking right. I lo-" "If you truly loved me, you would have controlled yourself and stopped drinking so much."

She spits before slamming the car door in his face. While on the drive to a hotel, she speaks to her child. "Don't worry, Akihito. We will move to a better place, a place where you will never see that asshole again." she states in a soft voice to the sleeping baby.

4 years later, The Vatican Italy.

"Are you sure it's ok for me to leave Akihito here?" Akihito's mother asked "Don't worry ma'am, I think of him as a grandchild. I will watch him and make sure he stays out of trouble. He does not bother the church, Akihiko is a kind child, we do not mind taking care of him after school." A Cardinal Priest says. "Ok, just tell me when to pick him up, Cardinal Michael.

Giovanni don't make any trouble for the kind Cardinal!" Akihito's mom runs to her car while waving to a small child. The child in question is Akihito. He wears a gray shirt with a TV show called 'drag-so-ball' on it and blue jeans. His ash blond shoulder-length straight hair covers most of his baby blue eyes.

"Now, let's go inside Akih-" "Where does that door in the library go," Akihiko asks while yawning. Michael stares blankly at the boy. "Are you going to speak?" he asks Michael, stunned by the child's words, he tries to change the subject. "Oh, you like visiting the library? Well, I nev-" "You are trying to change the topic, what's there? Are you hiding something?"

Michael struggles to find the right words to say, but eventually ends up with the words "O-only an exorcist may know that now let's go inside." These words stuck with Akihito for the rest of the day, the words put his brain in a spiral. "Why was he shocked? Why did he stutter when I asked him? What is so private that the church is hiding?

What does the exorcist have that makes them able to go in there?" These questions repeat in his head until the next day after school. He quickly hugs his mom goodbye and rushes into the library, Michael slowly follows the child to see him stacking books on a table.

"What could such a young child want to read about this much? He's too young to understand this material." Michael asks himself. When Akihito wasn't looking, Michael peeks at the title of the books. In pure amazement at the selection of books.

"These books are rarely touched, they're outdated exorcist books. Sure they do hold facts but, why?" Michael whispers to himself. "So these are exorcist books? Kinda makes sense." the boy states. Michael turns around to Akihito standing with 2 books, one in each arm with the crest of Lucifer on his left and the crest of Leviathan on his right.

"Thou shall scapan vow's of Devil kin, as one whom reads thou tome. Vows bind thy soul to the damnation of Devil's Crest." Akihito speaks in a hushed tone trying to make sure he said the words right.

"Y-you know old English?" Michael asked "Not really, but based on the prayers you say. This is talking about a person making deals with the devil, I-I think?" He placed the book on the table with a thud and climbed into the chair. "Thou and one means you. Shall means will, I think? A tome has to be a book and vows must mean deals.

Thy means. . . my? Whom means who, lastly scapan means. . . make?" the child struggles to understand if his words are right. "Sc-scapan means to create in that line, how did you read it?" Michael asks while picking the books up and putting them in the return bin. "I just went off of what sounded close." Akihito tries to grab one of the books out of the bin but it is too short. "May I ask why you want to know these-" "I want into that room, if I become an exorcist then I can go in there," he states in a flat tone.

Michael notices the boy's presence change, the boy has become less of a child and more of an order-driven machine. His eye's blank, like 2 never-ending blue pits. "Why has a child developed a thousand-yard stare?" he thinks to himself before sighing. "Alright I will allow you to join us, but you have to believe every word said. Understand?"

Michael says in a commanding voice. "Cardinal Sir!" he says while getting up and following The Cardinal to the hidden door. A Teenager wearing priest robes with no buttons walks up and rests his hand on Akihito "Woah! You look a bit too young to be here kid. How about you go play with the other kids?"

The Cardinal snaps his fingers "Eden, your presence is not needed I will handle the child on my own." Eden sighs a bit and ruffles up Akihito's hair "Well alright then I'll just go and see if I can get a bite to eat" Eden turns on his heels and walks off in the opposite way.

7 years later, România.

After 3 years of training in the church and 2 years of on-field training, Akihito became a well-known vampire hunter, priest, and exorcist as he slept in a taxi. Dreams of his mother passing away from Lung cancer 2 years ago swirl in his mind as white feathers fall with a waterfall. Right before Akihito can look up he is woken up. "Hey, brat! Get the fuck up, it's only 10 A.M! Welcome to România. Well, to be more direct it's Transylvania Hunedoara România." Before the man can ask for a tip, Akihito throws him the money for the trip and an extra 20 before closing the car door. "Why is the sun so hot and my spine is killing me, can my day get any worse?" he groans while dragging himself down the street.

His looks have changed so much from his life back when he was 6. The expected changes for any boy turning 12 had happened. Voice cracks, growing longer hair on his head and around his body including his face, and a little more than average height, and a little muscle growth. But inhuman changes started 3 months ago after a battle with a vampire all night, his eyes turned from baby blue to salmon pink, his ash blond hair turned fully silver and his skin turned from a warm ivory color to an albino-like pale skin, his skin feels as if it burns in sunlight and his body hair fell out. Leaving him with just his eyebrows, lashes, and long hair that reaches his back.

After an hour he arrived at the house. Akihito straightened himself up and cleared his throat before knocking at the door.

Knock-knock-knock

"Hello, it's me, Giovanni, the exorcist you higher. Is anyone home?" He tries the door but it's locked, annoyed by the fact someone called him while not being home. He climbs into one of the windows on the second floor leading to what looks to be a family office. He noticed the smell of blood and bath salts. "Guess they called a normal priest before me, huh? And it's only 9:30." He says while kicking a blood-stained body, he notices a killing intent down the hall.

He starts to walk down the hall to where the stairs are and waits. After a while, he puts his stake into a backward grip, and with a full-force jab back he stabs a young vampire in the side. "Your trash race needs to be more skillful, your killing intent was too strong." he states while yawning "damn, I should have taken a longer nap." he mumbled before kicking the vampire down the stairs, with every thud the vampire screamed louder and harder, "If I knew your race was such trash then I would have picked to hunt devil's, holy stakes truly is easy to use," he says while pinning the vampire's The arms with his left hand and its legs with his own.

"Well, rest in hell, boring vamp-" Akihito could not finish his statement as another vampire appeared and kicked him in the back of the head. Sending him flying out a wall that broke from the force on his body on contact, landing in the grass with blood spilling out his mouth and nose. "Honey, how the FUCK did you get beaten by a child?" the older-looking female vampire asks. "He somehow saw me." as the vampire tries to get up, a glass bottle of holy water is thrown at her in a spiral. She screams as another hits her left foot. When the older vampire goes to look at the hole in the wall she sees nobody lying dead on the grass. "WHERE THE HELL IS H- AGHH!" she screams out as she feels something bite her neck, she looks down to see Akihito giving her the peace sign while stabbing her collar bone with a holy dagger. blood spews out everywhere as Akihito stabs her chest repeatedly.

She tries to elbow his sides and bang him on the walls. "GET HIM THE FUCK OFF ME LEY-" her eyes go blank as she falls, twitching as Akihito gulp's down the blood. With a breathy panting voice. "Haah, now she is… haa… dead. We can continue, right?" dragging his legs to the vampire attempting to limp away, Akihito grabs the vampire's hair and pulls her up to his face. "How does it feel vampire, to fear for your life? Is it fun?" he asked, staring into her eyes. "What was your name again? Something with a ley at the beginning?" "SHUT UP! WHY WOULD A FELLOW VAMPIRE HUNT THERE OWN KIND FOR THE CHURCH!?" she cries while clawing his neck. "A fellow vampire? A FELLOW FUCKING VAMPIRE!? WHO THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOUR TALKING TO!?" he yells with blood dripping down his chest. Picking the vampire up by the head, and dragging the vampire to her dead partner. Once pinned to the ground he stabs stakes in the heels and wrists, "FOR EVEN SAYING SUCH LIE'S I WILL KEEP YOU ALIVE TILL THE SUN COMES UP! NOW SUFFER FOR THE NEXT 9 HOURS VAMPIRE!"

2 hours as the wailing cries of a vampire can be heard, other exorcists come to the sound just to see a boy slowly ripping a vampire apart with blessed medical tools. The sickening sight makes some throw up while the rest use magic to stop the city from hearing the wails. When he notices the other exorcist using magic to suppress the sound of the crying woman, a small smile grows on his face. "Thank you all, now I can put a smile on her face," he says while cutting her cheeks open, blood spews all over the floor as her wailing has turned into whimpers for mercy.

"P-pl-please, just kill me. Let me die." the vampire cries. "Sorry but you have yet to smile, so we will keep going," Akihito states while putting her blood on his face, covering his face from cheekbone to cheekbone in a smile made of blood. For another hour the screams dim down till the house falls silent. "Oh, she quit making noise. It's only 1:00 A.M. girly- oh her mind is gone." Akihito stands up and writes a piece of paper with a paintbrush and the blood from the vampires, quickly he folds it into an envelope and seals it with the blood and his thumb.

"U-umm mister. . . Gia-" "It's Ordained Priest to you exorcist, and it's Giovanni." The exorcist was cut off by the boy's words. He limps out of the house as he feels something heavy fall on his back. "Ordained Priest Giovanni is the White One!" an older exorcist says in shock, Akihito looks over his shoulder and jumps.
