Hello everyone, though I doubt anyone is even reading. If they do, I doubt they'll stay for long.
Yes, I haven't updated or made a chapter for Monarch DxD or The Nameless Midnight. Which the latter will be rewritten but no loss there. This is an story that I've been working on for the last year and a half along with finishing Highschool.
Anyway, this is a DC/Sandman Comics AU with some light crossovers into other places. Though for a bit, it will mostly follow the plot kind of. Eh, you'll see eventually. But it won't start in the DC Universe but in another WAIT before you say "Not another Gamer/Reincarnate with knowledge of the universe beforehand and makes the whole thing boring unless they're really good at it." (Which I'm not) My OC Kuriya pronounced Ku-rai-ya is from an alternate version of earth where the comics don't exist or have an alternate version of the comics replacing it like Invincible or something. Either way, Kuriya has no foreknowledge of the universe except what she was told.
Though she does have a system, but it's low key and will eventually be useless and a means to an end, kinda like Solo Leveling. I am willing to do Q/A's every other chapter. So please ask questions and be civil. Enough of this let's get this prologue started.
I do not own any DC/Sandman comics or any other properties of other franchises, only my characters which I've created.

WARNING THIS MAY GET DARK VERY QUICKLY
Our story starts off with a young woman walking through the city trying to make it to her college.
HONK!
"CAN'T YOU SEE THE LIGHT'S RED DUMBASS!?" The young woman yells at the car that almost ran her over as she's crossing the street. "DOES IT LOOK LIKE I CARE?! I'M TELLING YOU TO GET OUT THE FUCKEN' WAY!" The driver yelled at the young woman as she finished crossing.
This is Kuriya.
Kuriya is a young British Italian woman with black chin length hair styled in a short combover bob with her hair brushed behind her left ear. She has deep blue eyes and a pale complexion. She's wearing a white button shirt with dark black jeans and black boots.
Kuriya's an orphan has been since birth. Kuriya has been told that she was left on the door of the well-kept orphanage and only had a blanket with her first name on it. No one ever adopted her and Kuriya eventually outgrew the system and gained a scholarship to her local college through her amazing grades.
"God damn it, no one seems to know how to drive today." Kuriya says already done today even know it just turned around noon. She growls and thinks. 'First off my alarm doesn't go off, then when I go to quickly take a shower the water's COLD! And if that wasn't enough, I missed the bus and have to walk across downtown to get to college. CAN THIS DAY GET WORSE?!' Kuriya finishes with a yell in her head.
Unfortunately, Kuriya didn't realize she tempted both Murphy and Fate, which guaranteed misfortune. As soon as Kuriya finished that thought, a very bright sliver light appeared above the city. Everyone in the area covered their eyes to prevent going blind. Panicked screams sounded out throughout the city. "What the hell?!" Kuriya yelled out before the light died out revealing angelic(?) beings made of sliver light.
The largest one in the front raised his blade and at that moment, a barrier of sliver light covered the city. The Leader swung his sword down, resulting in the rest of the angels(?) to fly down at the crowd of people with their weapons ready. Kuriya had already started running away the moment the barrier went up looked back only to see a massacre. Bodies left and right, limbs everywhere, and the angels covered in blood still going after others. It seemed like they were somewhat merciful as anyone below sixteen were killed quickly and somewhat painlessly, anyone above that was free game to more cruel angels(?). Kuriya didn't look back anymore and ran like her life depended on it, which it really did. She ran seemingly endlessly, taking alleyways, backstreets, and even running through stores in order to avoid the beings of light. (Un)fortunately, only finding bodies upon bodies in piles upon lakes of blood.
Kuriya was currently running through the bottom floor of her local mall. 'I just have to get through here and across the parking lot, then get home and barricade myself in the basement.' she thought before turning right seeing a Richard's Sport wares and goes to open the glass doors. As she grabs the handle, suddenly Kuriya gets sent flying through the doors and into a rack of golf clubs. Her vision is burly as she gets up, holding her ribs. Kuriya stands up shakily as her vison clears up, revealing the Sliver Leader of The Angels(?) standing in front of her.
The Silver Leader is a humanoid male being made out of silver energy and has flaming gold hair with bright gold eyes. He, unlike his kin, is not wearing armor and instead is wearing an old white Victorian button-up and pants with black boots all drenched in blood. Lastly, the leader has large sliver oddly enough dragon-like wings coming from his back. In his right hand is a large flaming gold broadsword.
The Sliver Leader pointed his sword at Kuriya and said in an arrogant yet warm voice full of disgust. "Etton alled odratsab oilgif." Kuriya didn't know what that meant but decided to pick up a golf club as a weapon. The leader seemed almost amused at that and motioned for her to come at him. Kuriya narrowed her eyes and tensed her legs only to run in the opposite direction, hoping to lose the angel(?) in the store. The Sliver Leader walks slowly through the store, looking down at each individual Ille. He dips to the side as a golf club goes flying past him. Kuriya comes up behind the leader with a sharp metal pole and stabs him the back, resulting in a loud screeching sound. Kuriya looks wide-eyed at the pole in her hands in scared awe, seeing the pole resembling a crushed soda can. She quickly snaps out of it and jumps back only a second to late, losing her left forearm in the process.
"AGH!" Kuriya screams in excruciating pain as she falls on her back. She sobbed softly cradling her stub before hearing footsteps and quickly started trying to crawl away. A large boot stepped onto her back, drawing a pained gasp from before oddly enough, her head started rolling before stopping showing her own headless body and the satisfied and kind smile of The Sliver Leader.
Kuriya gasped and fell on her knees right before the crossing onto the street. "What?" She said softly before grabbing her left forearm in disbelief. "This is right before..." Kuriya head snaps up in realization before standing up and running in the opposite direction, pushing people out of her way. She managed to get at least a block or two away before the sliver light appeared in the sky. Kuriya slipped into a nearby store and ran behind the countertop.
'So all of that before was real or was it a look into the future?' Thought Kuriya before speaking out loud. "It doesn't matter, I just need to make it to my house and wait this out." She got up and went into the back. Kuriya quickly left into the alleyway but not before grabbing a broomstick. It may not do much but it's something.
Kuriua decides to walk through to another backroad but as she makes it towrads the end of the alley, she notices something that wasn't there last time. Screams. There were groans as well but you could barely hear them over the screams. She knows she shouldn't look but she could never leave well enough alone and looked around the corner and immediately regretted it.
There were still mountains of bodies and lakes of blood but this time the male angels(?) were forcing themselves upon any female they could get their hands on while the female angels(?) were setting ablaze anyone they could get. The only bright side if there was one was that they still killed anyone under sixteen quickly. Kuriya quicky ducks back into the alley. 'It's worse than last time. Last time they just killed them but now...' Cold dread flushed through her body. Kuriya suddenly heard steps outside the alley and curses. "Shit." Kuriya quickly ran back into the store she first hid in and ran through it and out onto the street.
Kuriya ran and ran until she reached the suburbs. Suddenly she gets tackled from behind. She rolls and looks back revealing one of the female angels(?) underling had tackled her. The female underling was also made out of sliver energy like her leader with long flaming gold hair and eyes. It was wearing deep blue knight-like armor without a helm and wielding a large flaming gold kukri. "Etton alled odratsab oilgif!" The angel(?) shouted before running at her.
Kuriya quickly swung the broom at the underling managing to hit the angel(?) in the mouth with the brush stopping, it in its tracks. The underling coughed and took a step back. Kuriya tried to capitalize on the moment of weakness before the angel(?) quickly spun around revealing a glowing sliver lizard-like tail which swung at Kuriya. She quickly blocked with the broomstick which broke in half on contact sending her flying. The survivor crashed into a fence still holding both sides of the broken broomstick. The sliver underling stomped over to Kuriya with fury staining her beautiful face. The angel(?) rose its sword arm which it quickly came to regret exposing itself.
Kuriya using one of her broken weapons stabbed the sliver underling in it's armpit causing extreme pain to the angel(?) making it drop the kukri. Kuriya quickly picked up the discarded weapon with her left hand. Kuriya hissed as the sword/knife was burning her hand before quickly steeling herself before tackling the underling to the ground and attempting to stab the angel(?) in the eye. The sliver entity held the survior's attack before suddenly being blindsided by Kuriya's right hook. With the underling disorientated, giving Kuriya the opportunity to violently stab the angel(?) in the throat multiple times.
Kuriya sat there for a few moments taking the fact that she had just killed a fully sentient living being. 'Even though I had just killed a living being, I can't bring myself to care about this entity in any given way.' She thought while covered in the sliver underling's green blood. Behind her came clapping making her look back revealing The Sliver Leader.
Kuriya slowly stood up while gripping the kukri tighter. She absently noted that she could smell burning flesh, her burning flesh. The Sliver Leader still had one that smile, one full of warmth and disgust. "Aton id onged etton alled odratsab oilgif. Non im ovattepsa ehc issediccu onu ied ieim itadlos." The angelic(?) leader said as he held his hand out and his broadsword appeared. Kuriya warily took a step back. "Sorry but I don't know what the hell your saying." She said voice full of anger and bite as Kuriya continued to step back.
The Sliver Leader started to advance slowly. 'Dammit I can't escape, and I can't run or I'll expose my back to him. I can't risk him attacking me then.' Kuriya thought with slight fear. Unfortunately, when Kuriya's flight or fight instincts came out she chose fight. She ran at him with her weapon ready while The Sliver Leader just stood there with doing absolutely nothing to protect himself. Kuriya swung at his neck and it connected! Sparks flew almost like it connected with steel. Instead of standing their dumbfounded Kuriya decided to go on the offense again this time with a kick to the nuts. That affected the angel(?) as he hunched over clenching his area. The survivor decided to take the chance to stab at the sliver leader's eye.
SPALT!
"AARRGGHH!" Two screams rung out. Kuriya was once again on the ground cradling her regained stub but she quickly recovered and stood up. 'I didn't manage to hit his eye so why is he hurt?' Kuriya thought as The Sliver Leader was rolling around on the ground palming his face with both of his hands. She noted that his face was sizzling and covered in her blood...
'My blood! That's why he's hurt. My blood is harmful to them but why?!' She thought before Kuriya decided to get a head start and started running. She managed to get a few blocks away before suddenly she was thrown into a wall. Kuriya looks up seeing The Sliver Leader's burnt face curled up in a sneer. "Adraud asoc im iah ottaf noc li out eugnas ottedelam!" It yelled at her running up to her and pushing her back against the wall. Kuriya being disorientated wasn't slow enough to see the angel(?)'s hand rip her blouse off.
The ripping sound broke Kuriya out of her daze. Cold dread settled in her stomach as she realized what the entity planed to do to her. "Nononono No NO!" Kuriya screamed as she swung her remaining fist at the sliver leader. Unknown to Kuriya her fist had a dark aura around it before the angel(?) impaled her hand with his broadsword. She screamed out in pain as the sliver being unbuckled his pants.
Kuriya gasped and fell on her knees right before crossing the street once again. 'I'm back again? After th-that.' Tears built up in her eyes before she wiped them and started running away once again. "I have to survive. I have to survive. I have to SURVIVE!" Kuriya screamed as she subconsciously suppressed the previous event in order to focus properly on surviving.
Kuriya somehow managed to get out of the downtown area and somewhat close to the suburbs before the sliver light appeared once again. Maybe Fate decided to back off? If only she knew...
She slows down near a pickup truck seeing a toolbox. Kuriya decides to look inside and sees a true temper crowbar which she picks up hoping it'll be a good enough weapon. She hears blood-curdling harrowing screams coming from the city. "Guess they aren't done with everyone else yet to consider coming out here yet." Kuriya states in the deadest tone one could have as she stares indifferently towards the city. "Well, it's only a matter of time before they get out here." She walks into a nearby house after breaking the lock. Kuriya then sits on the couch while looking out of the window watching and waiting.
She waited there for twenty minutes before she saw any of the angels(?). It just so happened to be that female angel(?) with the kukri but this time she wasn't alone. There was another sliver underling male this time. This male angel was made out of the same sliver energy and had the same gold flaming hair and eyes. It wore the same glowing blue knight-like armor with the helm's faceplate open and it wielded a glowing flaming spear. The more curious thing was what it was eating. It looked like a light blue ball of fire almost like those souls in those shows...
The more she looked at it the more she saw. In her head images of people laughing and crying appeared. 'It doesn't look like souls. They are souls!' Kuriya thought as she tightened her grip on the crowbar. Kuriya stood up and had an idea.
Outside with the two angels(?). They heard a crash in the house they just passed, and the female decided to go deal with it. The sliver underling walked into the house and passed the staircase never noticing the eyes following her movement. Kuriya was following behind her ready to strike and so she did.
Kuriya stabbed the crowbar through the angel(?)'s throat killing her instantly. As the underling fell to the floor, Kuriya grabbed the kukri hesitantly as it still burnt her hand slightly before it went away. She looked at her left hand that held the weapon and noticed a dark aura surrounding her hand. "What the fuck!" Kuriya dropped the kukri, but the dark aura stayed around her hands.
Shadows was flowing around her hands and arms in an enchanting motion. "It isn't hurting me. It feels nice, and I feel stronger too." Kuriya said as she looked at the aura of darkness in wonder and relief(?). She stood there for a few minutes just looking at the aura. A shout came from outside knocking Kuirya from her trance. She quickly snatched up the kukri and hid behind the opened door. The angel(?) stood in the doorway staring at the corpse of it's comrade.
Kuriya slammed the door into the sliver underling destroying it in the process. The angel(?) swung it's barbed light spear at Kuriya breaking the doorway. She ducked and stabbed the underling through the arm pinning the angel(?)'s arm to itself. The sliver angel(?) dropped it's spear and launched it's clawed hand at Kuriya. She grabbed the underling's arm and broke it at the elbow before slamming her dark aura infused fist at the sliver being's face.
Kuriya slammed her fist into its face over and over again. The green blood evaporates upon touching Kuriya's aura of darkness. She stepped back to let the body fall before stomping the head into fine paste, covering her boots in green matter. Kuriya slowly got up as she breathed in and out she caught her breath, Kuriya noticed three glowing orbs, two gold and one light blue flowing towards her.
As if in a trance, she reached out to them. As soon as they came into contact with her darkness covered hand, they were pulled into the dark aura. She then stood up rejuvenated. "Those were souls?" She asks herself hesitantly as she clenched her fist. "Maybe...like this, I can survive. I can win, but I will need a better weapon." Kuriya turns around and looks at the sliver knight's weapon then proceeds to quickly pick up the barbed light spear, remembering what her dark aura did to the Kukri. She grips the spear tightly even as it burns her flesh. "Come on..." Kuriya hisses as she tries to force her darkness aura into the spear. Wisps of the mysterious aura began to seep into the spear gained black veins creeping into it. Its flaming aura quickly died out against the darkness. The spear started losing its golden color, turning into a dull sliver color. The black veins are pulsing wildly and ferally along the shaft of the weapon. A black substance starts leaking from the blade, burning the floor as it makes contact with the maliciously smiles as she images how it would affect The Sliver Leader. She walked outside the house, making sure to stomp the female angel(?)'s head in before she left.
Kuriya began running towards the city, knowing that she'll run into her murderer. As she got closer to the city, she started to see corpses. "It seems the change this time is cannibalism. " Kuriya commented, seeing the bite marks and ripped flesh from the bodies. "I wonder even if I kill the leader. Will this loop end?" Kuriya grimaced at the possibility. "It doesn't matter. Even if that is the case, I get to kill him over and over forever." Her mood got much better at the thought of paying The Angelic(?) Leader back for everything he did to her.
Kuriya turned around quickly to block a sword slash. She looks up and sees The Sliver Leader. The Sliver Angel(?)'s face contorted into a sneer at the sight of the corrupted weapon. "Ehc anutrofs ehc ut ais oticsuir a eraccolbs el eut atiliba ehcainomed" Once again, the entity spoke in its odd language. "Like I said last time I have no clue what the fuck your saying." The Leader snorted and charged at Kuriya. Kuriya quickly summoned her darkness aura into her arms. She ducked under a slash and retaliated with a swift stab. The Sliver Leader did nothing to dodge and just watched as the spear tip hit his chest.
CLANG
The spear bounced off, but the acidic liquid did not. The Angel(?) roared in pain and quickly used his sliver light to remove the harmful substance. The light successfully removed the acidic darkness, but the doing nothing for the massive burn on his chest. He glared at her with pure hatred as his broadsword became engulfed in golden flames. The sliver entity jumped at her attempting a downward slash which Kuriya blocked with the middle of her corrupted spear. The ground under her cracked and splintered. Kuriya gritted her feeling the vibrations rattle her bones. She encased her leg in the darkness aura then proceeded to kick The Sliver Leader in its burnt chest. The angelic(?) entity roared in pain as he stepped back. Kuriya lunged at The Leader intending to stab his wound hoping it'll pierce the weakened skin.
CLANG
The spear was blocked by The Sliver Leader's draconic wings. The entity extended his wings back out flinging Kuriya into a wall. She stood back up quickly and moved in time to dodge a burning stab but yelled in pain when The Sliver Leader sunk his teeth into Kuriya's shoulder. Hissing was heard as the angel(?) stumbled back. Kuriya looked up confused before remembering that her blood is acidic to these entities. "Fucking moron." She stated before jumping at the injured leader and swinging the spear like a bat. The Sliver Leader looked up at her words and attempted to dodge backwards but Kuriya changed the direction of her swing aiming towards his knee.
CLANG
The corrupted spear bounced off the leader's knee. Kuriya still in the air from her previous jump planted the spear tip into the ground, twirled and pole-vaulted feet first towards the angel(?). Kuriya incased her boots in her darkness aura as The Sliver Leader wrapped his wings around his upper body. Unfortunately for the sliver angel(?) Kuriya target wasn't his wounded chest but the entity's knee. The one she just hit and the one he left wide open.
SNAP
As soon as the survivor's boots connected to the sliver entity's knee it snapped. As the two fell onto the ground Kuriya brought up her left arm intending to finally kill the leader via impalement. Once again, she forgot about the angel(?)'s wings as one of them blocked the stab and made her arms bounce backwards. The Sliver Leader's broadsword came slicing down towards her left arm. Kuriya yelled out in pain and was sent flying back from a burst of light. 'My fucking arm again!' She angrily thought as she stood up and focused her darkness aura to her regained stump hoping it'll stop the bleeding.
A large amount of blood started to drip down from her stump causing her to panic slightly. As the blood began to pull together into a small puddle. The shadows surrounding her started flowing towards her crawling up her body. Kuriya's severed arm turned to shadows and joined the flowing shadows and started to swirl around her stump. Darkness shaped into bones and shadows into flesh. Kuriya clenched her fist a few times before speaking. "The old one felt better." She looks up at The Sliver Leader flying in the air flapping his draconic wings as his leg is still broken. "How's the leg asshole?" The sneer showed that the obvious taunt worked.
The Sliver Leader charged at Kuriya which she grabbed the broken leg and slammed angel(?) into the ground. The injured leader tried to stand back up before a small boot pressed him back down and two dark aura covered hands grabbed onto one of his wings. "Let's see how you like someone taking something precious of yours." Kuriya begins to tear the draconic wing off. It was a slow process requiring her to stomp on his back trying to pull the wing off. Kuriya kicked him in the face and channeled more darkness aura into his arms.
RIP!
With a meaty and loud rip, the wing was finally torn off. She procced to do the same with the other wing. "Can't move much anymore, can you?" The malice in Kuriya's voice is clear and thick. She kicked him onto his back and went to grab The Golden Broadsword. Kuriya focused her darkness aura on the sword and The Sliver Leader watched in horror as his flaming sword was corrupted. It's celestial gold metal turned into a dull sliver as dark veins grew from the hilt and in place of the flames is vicious black acid dripping from its blade. "Any last words?" The Sliver Leader opened his mouth.
STAB
The Sliver Angel(?) was cut off by a stab to the mouth via impalement through his mouth. "Enjoy the Second Circle." She pulls the sword out and lets the corpse fall to the bloodied floor. Kuriya looks up into the sky to see the light barrier around the city shatter and sat on a destroyed car then smiled. "It's over." The relief in her voice almost made Murphy not want to do anything. Almost. An ear-shattering mind-numbing roar shook the world. Kuriya shot up and thought. "WHAT NOW?!' She heard glass shatter in the distance and looked up towards the source. Up far in the sky was a hole. It looked like the sky was shattered glass and behind was nothing but black. A massive golden claw reached into the "frame" followed by another and those were followed by a giant dragon with black holes for eyes. The dragon was titanic, it completely blocked out the sun and turned day into night.
"YOU'VE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME!" Kuriya was completely done with today.
Apparently, the dragon disagreed with her and decided to make sure that tomorrow never came. The Golden Dragon winded it's head back and simply roared. And that was enough for the world to simply give up on itself. Reality was disappearing in front of her turning into nothing. Kuriya ran and ran channeling her darkness aura into her legs making her run faster and yet it'll never be enough to outrun the collapse of reality. Eventually the ground under Kuriya faded into nothing and she fell into the never-ending void.
TO BE CONTINUED
Kuriya's story isn't over just yet. One that will have its ups and downs with character growth and power. Budding Love and Endless Hate. All for my precious daughter and your entertainment.
Anyone who can tell me what language it is will get a hint of one of the ships into the future and whoever tells me what it says gets to suggest an enemy or ability for Kuriya in the future.
SEE YA NEXT TIME MY DEAR NIGHTMARES
