Hunter Westerdyk


"I'm sorry but their are still a few members that are yet to be introduced" Azazel said, Sirzechs looked at Azazel, "Oh?" Azazel turned his head to another door, "Come in!" he called, The door opened and my eye's widened, alongside the eye's of nearly everyone in the Peerage. "Sadly their Kind and Jack couldn't attend today, but luckily the rest could." Azazel said. I growled as I looked at them, the group we had grown accustomed to calling the Fallen Peerage. "Issei" I said as Issei, Olivia, Asia, Habriel and Cadriel walked into the room. Irina looked at Issei in surprise, Azazel spread his arms, "Allow me to introduce the strongest Group of Fallen Angels." I clenched my hands as the Fallen Peerage noticed us, Issei growled, "You" he said, I narrowed my eye's, "You" I said. "You seem to know each other, but may I ask how?" Michael asked, Rias sighed, "We had just defeated a Stray named Viser..."

"... Thats when Hunter Unlocked the Deep Black, with that power he was able to defeat Issei and Cadriel, forcing them to retreat" Rias said as she finished explaining. Silence had fallen in the room, which was broken by Azazel, "I apologize, I wasn't informed of this encounter" Then looking at the Fallen peerage he said sternly, "And I hope this doesn't interfear with the meeting" The Fallen Peerage nodded, Azazel's voice hadn't really given room for argument. Sirzechs looked at me and gestured to Issei, Clenching my jaw Issei and I walked up to each other and shook the others hand. As I touched Issei I flinched slightly as I realized how much he had grown, His arm was Draconic in Magic, and at some point he had achieved his own Balance Breaker. Issei sighed before saying, "I'm sorry for how I acted in the past, I was immature and idiotic for letting my emotions get the best of me. I hope you can forgive me" I realized with shock, that Issei was sincere, but what was an even greater shock was what Zekrom said to me, 'Forgive him' 'Why? he tried to kill Rias!' 'A Rival in an ally is always better then a Rival in an enemy' With a sigh I looked at him, "I forgive you Issei" I said, I could practically feel the surpise in the rest of the Peerage, but I ignored them. 

Timeskip:

"God and the Devil King are gone, Both of our War generals have been anahilated" Michael said. "We have a complication, once again it's not even our three powers, But these forces are equally if not more destructive, They are the Red and White Dragon Emperors, Not to Mention the Black one. So I'd like to hear their thoughts." Azazel said. "What I want, is to fight someone who's as strong as me" Vali said dismissively, Azazel chuckled "Yes but you can still find a lot of powerful opponents without having a war." Azazel said, "I suppose" Vali said, "And you? Red Dragon Emperor?" Azazel said looking at Issei, "What are your thoughts?" Issei stuttered, "I- uh- oh wow. yeah I'm not good at coming up with stuff on the spot so uhh" Azazel closed his eye's, "I see, well then why don't I make it a little easier for you Issei?" Opening his eye's Azazel said, "Try to focus here, If we start fighting again, You'll never be able to have your way with Olivia" Both Olivia and Issei gasped at Azazel's words, Issei more out of shock and Olivia more out of embarrassment. Azazel smiled, "But, if we make peace instead, then prosperity and propegation will become far more important." "You mean like, baby making?" Issei said a smile on his face, Azazel nodded, "That's right, Imagine those Training sessions. And you could practice every single day" Azazel said, making Olivia blush, "Hey I'm right here!" "Peace means a daily dose of Olivia lovin. War means no sexy time. You understand? Is that simple enough for ya?" Issei's face became distant and perverted before snapping back to reality he said, "Peace is number one! Yeah peace for me please!" Azazel and Sirzechs chuckled before Azazel looked at me, "What about you? Black one? Never before has the Black Dragon Emperor met both the White one or the Red one. Much less been in the position you are in now." I closed my eye's and looked at Azazel, "I believe that Peace is the Best course, and should've been established long before God and the Devil King Perished.  Bottom line, is I won't fight unless It's to protect my friends." I said. Rias smiled at me, "Black Dragon Emperor didn't you have a question you wanted to ask me?" Michael asked I thought for a moment and shook my head, "It's more personal, I'd prefer to talk about it in private" Michael nodded, "Very well" I then scratched my chin, "Oh but also, With God being you know dead. How's heaven doing?" Michael sighed at my question. "Not good, The only thing we had to keep the faith was our power to administer divine protection, Mercy and miracles. Even with me as the centre the church is barely functioning right now. The Faith of believers is the reason those of us in heaven exist, A threat to the system is a threat to our survival therefore anything that could negatively affect it had to be removed." Michael said, "Of course, That's why I suffered Rin's fate to" Xenovia said walking forward, "Along with others who found out the truth" Michael looked at her, "Exactly, It was unfair, you were hardly heretics, we should've discovered another way, I ask you for your forgiveness" Michael said bowing his head. Irina's eye's widened, "Apology accepted chief Michael. It's interesting I grew up in the church so I must admit, I do have a few regrets, But to be perfectly honest I am more then satisfied with my life as a Devil. I am sad though, for the other believers" Xenovia said, Rin walked forward, "As am I, And I'm much happier as a Devil to, I've met people who I cherish who also care for me" Rin said, "Both of you have forgiving spirits, like young Asia, and I am grateful for that" Michael said. Azazel looked back at Asia, "Oh right, I've heard of her, Wasn't one of my underlings responsible for her death? As well as Issei and Hunters?" I growled, "Yeah! And you should be apologizing!" I shouted, In usion with Issei, much to our surprise Azazel looked at me, "Naturally I take full responsibility, Although If I recall, you were the one to kill her weren't you? but nevertheless I will satisfy you in a way only I can" I growled and stepped forward, "How?" Rias walked up to me and put a hand on me, "Calm down Hunter" But as she spoke I felt something, Blinking I looked around, my eye's widened as I realized what had happened, "oh no" I said, "They're frozen" I looked around to see that Kiba, Xenovia, Irina, Issei, Vali, Grayfia and the leaders were all unfrozen. For those that had Sacred Gears or Holy swords, they were drawn and glowing with power. "Time frooze" I said, "It appears so, fortunatly those of us superior powers weren't affected." Azazel said, "Thank our dragons, they protected us" Vali said, 'Thank's Zekrom' 'No prob' "And the heavenly bunch over there were protected by their holy swords." "What? I don't understand" Irina said, looking at Xenovia then away again. "I'm okay thank's to you Hunter" Rias said, "You did it again" I looked at my gear when suddenly a huge explosion came from outside. I ran to the window and saw hundreds of cloaked warriors appearing. "Who are they?" Issei asked, "Magicians" Serafall said, "Magicians?" Issei asked, "And they're so rude! I'm a real life Magi Girl and their flat out ignoring me!" Serafall shouted. Michael walked up to the window, "But what is this power?" "It's the half vampire boy, He must've been coerced into creating Balance Breaker conditions for them." I looked at Azazel, "Gasper?" "He has the power to stop time, I think it's safe to say yes, It is him." Sirzechs said, "Gasper has fallen into enemy hands" "Oh no" Kiba said, "Terrorist Magicians dare to kidnap a member of my household? They will pay for this disrespect" Rias said, "our guards are dissapearing, Teleportation Magic, that can only mean someone is connected to the gate within this barrier." Michael said, "And unfortunately our Magical troops are completely sealed off from us" Grayfia said, "So we've been cornered" Azazel asked, "Yes, their timing along with their use of Lady Gremory's Bishop could not have been more perfect" Michael said, "We've been betrayed" Irina said. "I reccomend we take action soon. If they've somehow found a way to make Gasper even stronger, None of us will survive" Sirzechs said. "No one is strong enough to beat him? How could Gasper have that much power?" Issei asked, "Because he is a Mutation piece" I frowned as Issei's eye's widened, 'Great now he know's something I don't, I'm going to have to ask later on' One of the Barriers broke, "If we don't do something about this Half Vampire kid now, It'll be far to dangerous to fight back" Azazel said, "Sirzechs" Rias said, Sirzechs looked at Rias, "I have an unused rook in storage where my household usually holds meetings" "A rook? Castling could work" Sirzechs said, I frowned, 'If Rook's are castles in a game of chess, isn't castling basically teleportation?'  "But I'd rather not send you in alone" Sirzechs said, "Gasper is a member of my household, I take responsibility for him and I'll steal him back." Rias said "I'd reccomend using some of Sirzechs power, then another person will be able to escape with you, prehaps even two." I stepped forth, "I'm going" But my voice wasn't the only that spoke, Issei did as well, "Issei?" I asked, Issei looked down, clenching his fists, "Look, Even if you've forgiven me I still feel guilty, I wanna help" I looked at Rias who gave a reluctant nod. "You can go with her" Sirzechs said, "Wouldn't it be easier to take out the half vampire with the terrorists? If you'd like I can just do it for you" Vali said, "Dick!" I shouted "Vali try to be a little more considerate okay? After all we are trying to make peace here." Azazel said, "Sorry it's hard for me to do nothing like this." Vali said, Azazel chuckled, "Fair enough, Then why don't you go welcome those magicians? Upset there ranks some, seeing the white dragon emperor should help." Vali smiled as his sacred gear appeared, which took the form of his Wings. He flew out the window and engaged them, transforming into his Balance Breaker. I looked at Rias who appeared worried, "Don't worry we're going to get Gasper back safe." Issei walked over to me and nodded, "ah first things first." I looked over to Azazel who held up a hand, and gave me two silver bracelets, "Take these, you should be able to use that bracelet as compensation for an arm, allowing you to transform into Balance Breaker, But it doesn't regulate the Drain, put the other one on the half vampire, It should help bring his Balance Breaker under control" . A red circle appeared around me, Rias and Issei. "I'm leaving Rias in your hands understood?" Sirzechs said, I nodded, "Yes sir" The circle moved up and we teleported to the club room. "Gasper!" Issei shouted, "Not here, Lets try another room" I said, Issei nodded and we ran through out the Club. Rias and I gasped as we ran to a window feeling a huge flow of Magic. "Who's that? Look with Azazel!" Rias shouted, I looked out to see a Azazel battling a stranger whom I couldn't see well from here. "What's she doing here?" Rias asked, "Who's she?" I asked, "Cadelia Leviathan, you know when the four Devil Kings were killed in the war, they were replaced by devils that earned instead of inherited those titles right?" I nodded, "Yeah" "Thorugh the long years of fighting the Devils were almost completely decimated, If the new Devil Kings hadn't ended it when they did, we probably wouldn't be here right now. But the direct descendants of the Former Devil Kings still retaliated. They declared themselves to be the rightful successors. So they were chased to the farthest corners of Hell, Cadelia was a part of the resistance, She is a descendant of the Leviathan Family, Come with me" Rias said walking away, "I want you to promote yourself to queen" Rias said, I nodded as I promoted. Issei glanced back out the window, but followed us. Rias stopped outside a door and using her destruction Magic blasted a hole into it. Issei and I ran in, taking out the Magicians. I growled when I saw Koneko and Gasper, With a start I realized Gasper's eye's were red, and had the patterns of a jewel, and the centre glowed yellow, "Rias I'm sorry this is all my fault!" Gasper said, "Please forgive me Rias" Koneko said, "It's all right, I'm just glad we found you, you're okay?" Rias asked, "I don't know what tricks you used to get here, but don't take one more step." One of the Female Magicians said, "Please Rias, Just kill me now and get it over with" Gasper said, Issei jumped when he realized that Gasper, was Gasper, "Wait, that's the Vampire? Why's he so cute?" Issei asked, I groaned, but ignored him, "Don't say stuff like that" I said, "It would be better for everyone if I was dead, I'm a useless coward and not only that, look what happened, my stupid power caused it so I don't deserve to live anymore!" Gasper said crying, "Don't be so dramatic, Remember what I told you when I made you one of us? I made a solem vow, I will not abandon you" Gasper's eye's widened, "Thank you, Thank you so much" two of the magicians pointed swords at the throats of Gasper and Koneko. "How stupid, you should've taken the time to brainwash such a dangerous creature so that you could then use him as your own personal weapon" One of the Magicians said, "I know this is most likely beyond your understanding but my servants are actually cared for" Rias said, "Disrespectful bitch, I'll turn that pretty face into one deserving the name Devil!" The mage shouted shooting a yellow beam out of the Eye patterns on her forehead. I narrowed my eye's and summoning my Sacred gear protected Rias' face from the Magic Beam. Rias smiled at me and I nodded, Stepping forward Rias said "Listen to me, now would be the right time to cause major problems, I promise if you do I'll scold you over and over and over for being so naughty Gasper, Then I will hold you and never let go" Rias said, Gasper began to tear up, "You will? Okay, I can try!" Gasper shouted, I smiled at Rias, before turning my Gaze to Issei who nodded, "Oi! Gasper! You can do this! Dry those tears! All of us, Rin, Kiba, Xenovia, Akeno, Koneko, are your friends! Stand for those Friends! Be Brave for them! Don't disrespect the name of Gremory!" I shouted, An Idea formed in my mind and I looked at Issei, "Issei!" Issei looked at me, "Yeah?" I pointed at Gasper, "Give him some of your blood!" Issei's and Gasper's eye's widened, "What?! Why?!" Issei shouted in surprise, I clenched my fist, "I said give him some of your blood! You'll see!" Issei looked at me, before nodded, "ASCALON!" He shouted as a sword blade sprouted forth from his knuckles, 

 Rias smiled at me and I nodded, Stepping forward Rias said "Listen to me, now would be the right time to cause major problems, I promise if you do I'll scold you over and over and over for being so naughty Gasper, Then I will hold you and never l...

It was a holy sword no doubt, With a shout Issei cut his right Palm. "Stay still little dude" Issei said, before thrusting the sword at Gasper sending a couple drops of his blood onto Gasper's face. Gasper's face was in shocked, "Damn it dude! You are a Sacred Gear wielder! Show them what it means! Do it Gasper!" Issei shouted, I smirked at Issei, seem's like he was bonding with Gasper rather quickly. Gasper closed his eye's and licked some of Issei's blood off his face. The moment he did the Yellow irisis' in his eye's expanded into a ring around his pupils. I closed my eye's and decided to let Gasper freeze me as well, once I opened my eye's Koneko was next to Rias and Gasper was gone. "He's gone!" One of the magicians shouted, "No he stopped time!" another shouted, "I don't understand, the sacred gear was surpressed!" Another shouted, Bat's descended on the Magicians, "He managed to transform two!" Magician 1 shouted, Dark Purple hand's appeared out of nowhere and binded the magicians, "He's drinking my blood!" Magican 2 shouted, "Not only our blood, He's draining our power along with it!" Magician 3 shouted. One of the Magicians broke free of Gasper's dark hands and tried to run, but Koneko kicked her right back to the others. "Awesome!" Issei shouted, "This is just a small dose of Gasper's power" Rias said, Issei looked at Rias, "No way" Rias nodded, "Yes way, his power was released when he tasted your blood. But Hunter, how did you come up with that Idea?" Rias said turning to me, I looked at my Sacred Gear, "I might've had some help" I said. "You guy's watch out" Koneko said looking behind us, Turning around I saw a Magician fire a beam at Rias, Narrowing my eye's I held up my Sacred Gear but the magic froze. "Wait what happened?! The magics been stopped!" the magician shouted in surprise, "It's no use" I looked around as Gasper's dissembodied voice spoke, "I can see every move all of you are making" A glowing red pair of eye's appeared as the Magicians all froze, "Hunter! Your up!" Gasper shouted. I nodded and held up my Sacred gear, as the dark silhouette of Zekrom appeared around me "Urbosa's Fury!" I shouted snapping my finger's and striking all of the frozen magicians with Lightning. "Woah! what was that?!" Issei shouted when he saw the silhouette of Zekrom. I smirked and shrugged as Gasper appeared beside me, "I'll tell ya later", Then remembering the Silver bracelets that Azazel gave me I turned to Gasper. "Here, this should keep you more in control." I said, putting one of Gasper's left bicep, then putting the other on my own. "Wow thanks! But uh, why didn't you give me your blood?" Gasper asked, Hearing Gasper's question Rias stepped forward, "Gasper, that's not-" I held up my right hand, "It's okay Rias, I think Gasper and even Issei deserve to now" Rias stopped and looked at me concerned "Are you sure?" I nodded, with a sigh I began to tell them the secret of my blood.

"... and now that poison has saved my life 3 times from Fallen." I said finishing my story, Gasper and Issei looked at me in shock, "Wait so your blood even kills Fallen Angels?!" Issei shouted in surprise, I nodded, "Just a drop, my guess is that It would Kill Gasper as well, and I wasn't going to take that risk." Rias nodded, "Well, now that's done, Let's get out of here!"
