Disclaimer: I do NOT own any of the characters already featured in the Date A Live series.
Now, the Date A Live series doesn't have specific years it's set in. Because of what I've seen, I'm going to assume the great Spacialquake took place in 2010, which means the canon events of Date A Live assumably would start in 2040, which makes sense, given the futuristic equipment and such.
{Prologue}
OC POV:
"It is what it is."
I was just a neighbourhood high schooler, as Shido Itsuka would say, during my time in the world where I originated from.
I just had my heart broken completely in half by a girl I've known for a decade. I was lost, felt as if my existence was questionable but I came to terms with myself that I'll never find love ever again... Or so I thought. -(Keep this in mind for later).
However, one day as I was on my way back home from school, I was about to cross the road in a big highstreet when I heard a truck speeding to my right as it closed in like a Ferrari on a race track and at the same time, I saw a little girl with white hair and blue eyes crossing the road without warning.
I don't know whether it was instinct or not, but I jumped into harms way and saved the little girl just in time, causing me to get hit by the speeding truck instead.
I laid there in a pool of my own blood, looking up at the sky as I smiled faintly, knowing I've done something heroic to make up for my mistakes during my life. I was content with what I had done. I then passed away not long after I had gotten hit.
In what felt like a dream, I opened my eyes to find an entity standing infront of me, holding a crystal which looked familiar but unfamiliar to me. I used to watch Date A Live a lot and I knew what types of crystals there were: Qlipha and Sephira crystals.
Except... this one looked to be a mix of both. Half Sephira, half Qlipha.
"Do you wish to become a vigilante spirit in another world? Your power will be more powerful than that of the Spirit of Origin." The entity said.
"Spirit of Origin... that's Mio Takamiya if I remember rightly. In turn, if that's the case, I should be more powerful than Issac Westcott, the founder of DEM too, that's if I'm going be reincarnated into the Date A Live world." I thought to myself.
"I don't see why not.." I said, slowly putting my hand on the crystal, putting it against my chest. It then slowly sank in, seemingly merging with my heart.
"I'm going to teleport you to Tengu City in Japan in 2010. Oh, and don't die, not that you will that easily. But still, don't. I'd rather not see you again so soon." The entity said to me before sending me to Tengu City in 2010.
I ended up awakening on the beach where Mio and Shinji are supposed to have their date during June. No spacialquake or anything, which is good.
"Hmm.. it seems my astral dress is... a jet black mercenary uniform with armor plating.. hah. I've always loved military things and now I have it as an astral dress. I suppose I'm in for a ride.." I said to myself, standing up to look at myself in the waters reflection.
I saw that I have jet black hair, blue eyes, flawless skin, and I had a good figure too.
"Hmm.. because I've been born into this world before Mio... does that make me the new Spirit of Origin?" I thought to myself as I walked along the beach, finding a discreet location to manifest my angel.
I then found a discreet place for me to start testing my power. I then closed my eyes as I remember the incantation.
"Excelsus." I recited, a white katana appearing in my right hand; this was my angel. I inspected the katana, seeing it was eminating a pure radiant glow.
"So this is my angel.. if I'm wielding katanas, then I suppose my moves will be mostly consist of close range techniques." I concluded, analysing my angel.
As I was thinking, I remember back to when I absorbed the crystal. It was half and half, which begged the question; can I use an angel and a demon king at the same time?
"Hmm.. if I'm able to wield both of these, then life is about to get easier yet more chaotic." I said, closing my eyes again, remembering my demon king incantation.
"Hearth." I recited, a dark red katana now appearing in my left hand which emitted red flames, flames imbued with brimstone and can scorch pretty much anything.
"So I can use my Angel and Demon King at the same time without going berserk.. woah. This is a very surprising discovery." I said, looking at my dark red katana.
"From what I know, Demon Kings have more raw power than Angels.. but Angels have more complex and controllable techniques.." I said with uncertainty in my voice.
I then made both katanas disappear from my hands, sitting down by the ocean, pondering to myself.
"I'm gonna let go of my old name. After all, I don't need it, nor was it relevant. Let's see.. what should my name be from this point on? Hm... I think Scara Tojo. It rings." I thought to myself as I sat up, looking towards the horizon, smiling faintly.
After some trial and error with my reiryoku recreating stuff and manifesting into objects, I managed to dawn myself in a random high school uniform to walk around in public once I got to Tengu City.
When I got to Tengu City, I wondered around, taking in the setting while keeping an eye for details I'll take note of later. I then saw something which was important; the date.
"So it's the 24th of May.. in 2010. Good to know. This means I can start brainstorming." I thought to myself as I walked through the city, calm and composed.
"I can save Shinji from being gunned down by Westcott and give him and Mio their deserved family life.. but I'm going to keep Westcott alive as to not temper with the story too much."
I then managed to find an abandoned building I can hide out in for the meantime while I waited for Mio to appear in 6 days.
Night then fell upon the city a short while after I settled into my temporary home. I sat by the window, looking up at the stars as I began to be intensely deep in thought.
"If Shinji is saved, then the only way Shido will be born, is if Shinji and Mio actually have intercourse.. which'll be inevitable. Shido is 16 when everything begins, so my guess is, he'll be born during 2024. Tatsuo and Haruko will have Kotori 2 years later after Shido is born."
"As for Mio's goals.. I reckon even if I save Shinji, she'll still want to kill people, but I think she'll generally narrow it down to anyone working for Westcott, in other words, anyone working for Deus Ex Machina (DEM) Industries. She'll most likely divide her power into Sephira crystals to give to the harem Shido eventually builds by sealing their power."
"Because Mio is Westcott's primary objective, Mio and Shinji most likely won't be able to be there for Shido all the time but I don't think Shido will be adopted this time. I'll see what happens with Shido when they cross that bridge."
"Mio will definitely create 'Reine Murasame' to watch over Shido as a mother figure while being part of Ratatoskr. That much is a fact. I also think Mio herself will visit Shido with Shinji from time to time. Parental love and that."
"As for the final battle between Ratatoskr and DEM during presumably 2041.. well, we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. For now though, I need to focus on keeping Shinji alive so him and Mio can live happily."
All of that thinking was enough to get me sleepy, so I called it a night as I laid down on the floor, sleeping for the first time in the world of Date A Live.
I could subconsciously hear the gentle wind blowing outside as I slept, the sound making for a peaceful setting for me to sleep to; I relished in calming situations like that.
All in all, I slept like a rock for what seemed to be the first time in what felt like forever. Was it because I'm in a new world with a fresh start? Was it because I'm no longer as weak as I was before? Time could only tell..
A/N: Scara's life has begun in the Date A Live universe! A vigilante spirit who wields a katana as both his angel and demon king.
I did say I'm gonna twist the story a lot and I'm gonna twist it in a way it still makes sense, but add my own elements to it if that makes sense.
I hope you enjoyed the Prologue! Stay tuned for the next chapter!
FF: I came up with "Qlihira" by merging "Qlipha" and "Sephira" together.
