10. Greetings

3RD PERSON POV

Y/N: *yawn* Good morning everyone.

Bijou: *chirp* Good morning Y/N!

Velvet/Ryuko: *kiss* Good morning Y/N.

Grabbing a crossaint from the fridge, Bijou bites into it and sits down onto the couch sprawled alongside Ink, who grabs the remote and changes the channel before slumping onto his back once again lazily.

Ink: *yawn* So.....are we up for training later?

Y/N: That's what I was planning for today.....since we'll be fighting the metal junkie in 2 days. Let's just hope we can beat him.

Ink: *scoff* Like that scrap of metal is stronger than me......what a load of bullshit......even if he has 3 sacred gears I'll kill him!

Tricky: *grin* ThAt'S tHe SpIrIt!


Bijou: So......who are you......uh....clown?

Tricky: TrIcKy ThE cLoWn!

Bijou: *thoughtful* Huh.....so that is you. 'No wonder dad called you crazy.'

Mako: Asia~ Oh Asia~

Asia: I-I'm coming!

She sits onto the floor as everyone gathers around in the living room portion of the apartment.





Y/N: I kinda know all of you already.........except for you Asia. I just want to know....like how's Union?

Asia: *worry* W-Well it's even worse than before due to the AAU. Rias always forces me to overexert myself and Issei is always trying to force himself onto all the girls out there.

Velvet: *worry* That seems bad.

Asia: I know........all this time I thought Rias cared for me but she only used me. So thank you for removing my peerage piece.

Y/N: No problem-





Ink: Are these real?


*pulls*

Velvet: KYA!

Velvet: P-Please don't pull on my ears! T-They're sensitive.

Ink: Oh uh.....sorry.....how about this?

He widens his hand and starts to rub the sore spot where he bruised her, earning a purr from Velvet as she thumps her feet.

Velvet: *purr* Much better..........








Ryuko: Anyone up for a quick game of cards?

Everyone: Sure.





Later

Chase: You both felt the power surge?

Scarlet: Yeah........

Brook: *takes pictures* Yeah....something's not right about it.

Chase: Wanna go investigat-

*KNOCK*

A knock was heard from the apartment door so Chase decides to come and open it.

Chase: Hello do you have any business her-

Ashe: So we finally meet eh?

*THUD*

Chase: *sweating and turns around* I may have found our third reaper just outside my doorstep.



Scarlet: HUH?!

Brook: *wary* Chase get back! Let us handle this!

Chase quickly backed away from the door as Scarlet and Brook carefully opens it with their demons in hand.

Brook: State your business here Ash-

Satan: My my~ We finally meet in the human world.







Brook:

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Scarlet: HUH?!

Brook: WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?!

Satan: *frown* Well unfortunately I can't kill your little precious human......but we do have something to discuss about.....

Chase: *pops from door* Something to discuss?

Satan: *grin* Yes Chase~ Something to discuss with our fellow archangels outside.

Scarlet: Oh god not her.......wait you said archangels as in plural?

Satan: Yes Scarlet.....all 3.

They all quickly step outside to meet the 3 standing across in the hallway.

Celeste: Greetings reapers.

Brook: Hello........why are you here?

Bernadette: *sigh* Let's cut to the chase. Do any of you feel the power surge yesterday?

Reapers: Yeah.......

Satan: It's quite interesting~

Azrael: Hmmmm~ I have dear Bernie......but it's quite....unusual as I may ask.

Celeste: From what I can tell, this energy never came from either heaven or hell. Seeing that this being can be dangerous, we need to make sure that it doesn't wreck havo-

Ink: Oi! Move!

Chase turns only to find Ink towering above him while holding his battle axe. Fearing for his life, he steps out the way as Ink grabs the ledge next to him and jumps down 4 stories.




Brook: The fuck was tha-

Bijou: Wait for me!

Bijou and Mako comes running and jumps off the same ledge. Not too far behind, Ryuko and Velvet ran and vaulted off the ledge as well.

Asia: A-Are you sure about this?

Y/N: Yes this isn't dangerous I have done this before you don't need to worry.

She reluctantly hugs his head tighter as Y/N jumps off the railing with Asia on his back.







Bernadette: We need to follow them!

Later


Y/N: So.....how are we doing this again?

They all made their way into an open plain out in the outskirts of the city, just where no one can hear or see them.

Ink: We spar each other, see what we can improve on, then he work on it and plan for a day before It arrives.

Ryuko: *wary* Yeah.....

Asia: *nervous* So we're fighting against a machine that can destroy the world?

Y/N: If it couldn't before now it can.

Ink: FUCK IT! I'M WAY MORE STRONGER THAN LAST TIME WE FOUGHT!

Y/N: Ok now first up.........I'd purpose that I fight Ink first. Then Ryuko, then Velvet, then Bijou, then Mako, and then Tricky. Asia I'll personally empower you but you're the support so I can't have you dying off early.

Asia: D-DIE?!

Y/N: *panic* No not die! I'm not letting you die on my watch! It's just that.......if I can't heal you guys then you're the backup and main support.

Asia: Oh....O-Ok!


Y/N: So Ink.....you ready?

Ink: Huh......yeah I-

*CRACK*

He shot into the air with an uppercut. Jumping up, Y/N grabs his legs and throws him into the ground. He lands on his 2 legs to throw out a body shot to which Ink blocks and stomps onto his foot.

*BOOM*




















Y/N: *rubs jaw* Goddamn.....I was just warming up.

He gets up from the crater underneath and takes his stance, seemingly now serious.


Ink: *rubs jaw* Fist fight to weapons huh......*grin* LET'S DO THIS!

He sprints forward as Y/N does the same and they both exchange a punch, shaking the very area around them as they now initiate their fight





Meanwhile


*BOOM*


*BOOM*


*BOOM*




The reapers, devil, and angels struggled to get close to the battlefield. Azrael maneuvered his wings around a tree only to get blown back by a shockwave that sent him flying into a ditch.

Azrael: *covers eyes* I can't get close!

Satan crouches while digging his tendrils and wings into the ground to lock himself in. Ashe in return stabs his sword next to him and holds on

Satan: *frown* The question is.......who are these people?

Bernadette: *grit* I thought we were following the people from before......

Celeste: *crouch* Unfortunately we came across a fight we can't even get close to.

Chase: What the hell is going on?! Who or what is fighting?!

Scarlet: Chase stay close! I-

*BOOM*


Ink comes flying out into the clearing. Before any of them could react, Soul Eater comes in spinning as he spins his battle axe and deflects i-

*CRACK*

He narrowly blocks a drop kick that sends him skidding across the field. Getting back up, Y/N reaches out and pulls Murasama from it's sheathe and points it to Ink grinning.


Y/N: *grin* Come.

*BOOM*

Ink comes barging in, swinging his axe as it crackles with blood red electricity. Spinning around, Y/N deflects his axe and swings to decapitate him as he dodges. Swing after swing, parry after parry, they both mindlessly swung at each other with the intention to kill.

Taking advantage, Y/N stomps onto the axe trapping it beneath him as he strikes his temple with a roundhouse kick-

Ink: FEEBLE!

Y/N flips onto his feet a bit surprised as Ink grabs his axe once again.

Y/N: 'He's getting fancy with his fee- *CRACK*

He coughs blood sensing the tip of the axe piercing through his ribs. He cuts open Ink's arm in return and kicks him away as he bends down breathing heavily.

REGENERATION INITIATED

Both of their wounds closed in just a few seconds. Finally realizing that Ink was getting serious, he dashes towards him, creating a sonic boom along the way as they both reared their fists back.

Y/N/Ink: RRRAAAAHHHH!-

*SHATTER*




Y/N/Ink: Huh?

They both stopped mid punch to turn their heads as Ashe held his broken sword in hand while Bernadette backs away with her hand out, surprised at the numerous of broken glass surround the two.

Y/N:............so you are angels or something?

Brook:........*brow raised* Is that the first thing that comes to mind?

Y/N: Well.....you kind of attacked us in the middle of our sparring session so yeah....

Celeste: You call this sparring?

She points to the literally demolished landscape behind Ink.




Ink/Y/N: Yes.

Bernadette: *stutter* T-This is you sparring?!

Y/N: For the last time yes.

Bernadette: And you!!

She pints to Ryuko who was just sitting there among the rubble casually.

Bernadette: Are you even bothered about all of this?!



Ryuko: Why would I?

She freezes on the spot, unable to comprehend the absurdity of the situation with everyone just awkwardly standing there waiting.

*snap*

Brook: 'Wai- bunny ears?' You stepped on my foot.

Velvet: Heh....sorry...











Brook: *emotionally damaged* 'Why is she a real rabbit girl?'

Velvet/Y/N: Um.....are you ok?

He just stands there depressed as the devil recollects his thoughts.

Satan: Well this is a bit of a surprise~ Mind if you introduce yourselves?~

Ink: *frown* You interrupted our spar so it's only fair you introduce yourselves first.

Chase: *sweating* You destroyed the entire landscape though.

REVERT

The entire landscape suddenly reverts back into its original state, startling the angels and devils as they all back away.

Ashe: The fuck is this?!

*POP*

Tricky suddenly pops out of the ground holding his stop sign on one hand while holding a half eaten hot dog on the other.

*CRUNCH*

Tricky: YuMmMmMm.......oH hElLo SuPeRnAtUrAlS!

Bijou: *yawn* Can we just introduce ourselves and get this over with?

Satan: *grin* Eager are we?~ Well then I shall settle this quickly. I am Satan, ruler of hell and these are my reapers Ashe, Scarlet, and Brook!~

He gathers them all together side by side and pats them all on the head while grinning at the group.


Satan: Are you entertained?~














Everyone: I've seen better.

An imaginary arrow pierced through his heart as he backs away.

Satan: *dramatic* Why must you hurt me this way?~

Y/N: *yawn* I've seen worse....what about you angels?

Azrael: Well~ I'm Azrael, third archangel of heaven~

Ryuko: Nice.

Bernadette: *frown* Is this necessary?

Everyone: Yes.

Bernadette: *sigh* I am Bernadette, 2nd archangel of heaven.

Asia: S-So you're the 1st archangel of heaven?

She points to Celeste who was calmly closing her eyes.


Celeste: Yes....I am Celeste, 1st archangel of heaven.

Chase: *nervous* I'm Chase......ex-detective.

Satan: And now that we finished our introductions lets hear from you guys!~

He giggles while looking at the group across from him.





Ink: I am INK, soldier and Nation Guardian of Keriotheca Technology Corporation!

Y/N: I am Y/N, founder of AAU and commander of AAU military forces!

And they all proceed to introduce themselves as usual leaving the other side speechless and confused.

Y/N: Now if you excuse us we have a little spar to get to aga-

Ink:......you literally overextended the time by 10 minutes.

Y/N: FUCK!!


Scarlet: Now hold on just a minute!

Chase: What's Keriotheca Technology?! What's AAU?!

Bernadette: *narrow* Are you even human?

Y/N: I am. Velvet's a rabbit Faunus.

Brook: What's a Faunus?

Y/N: Someone other than humans who live alongside them. Only difference is that they inherit one animal trait depending on their parents.











Chase: I have no idea what the fuck you're talking about-

Y/N: *sigh* Just fuck it let me explain everything!

And so he proceeds to tell them the short version of everything in just 30 minutes. Their faces ranged from indescribable to questionable and soon surprised and interested. However sometimes they were doubtful of his remarks but remained neutral until he finishes talking.

Y/N: And yeah that's the gist of it.








Bernadette: *doubtful* Tell us the truth.

Y/N: That is the truth. If you don't believe it then fine by me. We'll just spar in the meantime-

Bernadette: You will not cause unnecessary damage to your surround-

Y/N: *narrow* For your information I can literally fix this all in the span of a second.

Bernadette: *narrow* You are threatening the stability of this world! Now sto-

Y/N: Who are you to stop us?

Bernadette backed away as Y/N glared at her with a burning intensity.

Bernadette: *red* WHO AM I?! I AM THE 2ND ARCHANGEL OF HEAVEN I WILL-

Celeste: BERNADETTE!

She snaps her head to Celeste who was glaring at her.


Celeste: THIS IS NO TIME TO FLAUNT YOUR WINGS BERNADETTE!

During her fit of anger, Bernadette inadvertently released 4 of her wings, unleashing a power surge that well...........still did not impress the group.


Bernadette: *red* I—-FINE! I'll be back in heaven.

She reluctantly teleports herself away, leaving Celeste to turn to the group.

Celeste: I apologize for her behavior. She can get.......rather arrogant sometimes. *frown* But whether or not you're telling the truth or a bunch of imagination it is not up to me to decide on what you do since you're still all mortal. So be careful.

She teleports herself back along with Azrael, leaving the group still with Satan and the Reapers and one lonely boi standing alongside Scarlet.





Ashe: *yawn* I need to kill some people.

Brook/Scarlet: *murmur* I still need to fulfill my quota.

Chase: Follow me!

All the reapers how head back into the city to find sinners. Satan meanwhile was standing there grinning still.





Y/N: You still here?

Satan: *grin* Well.....I'll be taking my leave now~

Jumping off the branch, he descends into a hole in the ground as it closes up around him until he was gone.








Ink: Well that's it.

Y/N: *sigh* I really need to work on my social skills on how to convince people without my abilities.

Mako: To be fair, revealing foreign information to them that makes no sense in this world right away isn't the best option to convincing someone.

Bijou: At least they're gone now.

Y/N: And now we can spar......*grin* All of you against me!

Everyone: HUH?!

Tricky: ThAt WiLl Be FuN!!

Asia: A-Am I fighting?

Y/N: *pat* No.....but I'll teach you how to hone your abilities shortly after.

She quietly nods and stands off into the sidelines as all the girls and Tricky stood guarded.

Y/N: *grin* Are you ready?











Later

Y/N: I guess not.

Said group was laying on the ground, tired and exhausted after 6 hours of non-stop fighting and training. Asia meanwhile was panting, already having to heal them multiple times.


Ryuko: *pant* The hell? I couldn't even more that fast!

Y/N: *shrug* I simply just increased the gravity around you by X10.

Velvet: *pant* I'm.......exhausted......

Bijou: ACHOO!! Your ears are on my face Velvet.

She quickly removes her head as Y/N helps them all up.

Tricky: *groan* So HoW dId We Do?!





Y/N: Well........Ryuko first of all you have a really good bond with Senketsu. You're fast, strong, skilled, all of the above. However, you are somewhat too reckless sometimes which leads to a lot of openings I was able to take advantage of.

Ryuko: *dazed* Yeah....

Senketsu: That is true.

Y/N: However with It coming that wouldn't really matter but just make sure. Now Velvet, you're good but you often rely on your semblance too much. Have you ever thought of making your own style of fighting?


Velvet: W-Well yeah but my old team insisted on-

Y/N: Don't say old team! This is your opinion not theirs! I can give you some tips later but so far you are doing well.

Velvet: *smile* Thank you Y/N.

Y/N: Now Mako....you are obviously strong but you lack the experience.....how much have you trained in Union?

Mako: *sulk* Satsuki didn't allow me to train for very long.

Y/N: We'll work on that later but you're doing good. Now Bijou...your marksmanship along with your weapon skills are one of the best. *scratch head* It's unfortunate how you lack the strength though.

Bijou: *pout* Who you calling weak?!

Y/N: No no! I'm just saying that you do have the speed and stuff but you need have a bigger physical capability. Although it certainly has gotten better since I last met you so you're doing something right.

He then turns to Tricky who was eating a hotdog.


Y/N: Tricky......you are absolutely one of the most unpredictable fighters I came across. I.....don't even know what to say but I think you did excellent. Just keep up because I know you were holding back.

Tricky: *grin* ThAnK yOu FoR tHe CoMpLiMeNt Y/n!

Y/N: Now........who wants something to eat?!

Everyone exhausted: Me............











Later


Y/N: *yawn* You all good and full?

Ink: *sigh* Yeah......the burrito was shit though.

Ryuko: I wouldn't mind a drink or two.

Asia: B-But drinking is bad!

Ryuko: I'm not intoxicating myself!

Getting the table waiter to get them a table (although he felt threatened by them), they all sat against the window while waiting for their drinks.


*thud*

Y/N looks away from the newly made drink to find a familiar face sitting just next to him.








Y/N: Oh......it's you Azrael.

Ryuko: 'Oh great.'

Azrael: Relax!~ I'm not here to cut you off or anything! I'm just rather curious~

Y/N: Curious about what? You all didn't believe me when I told the truth about what we were doing here. Why would you care?

Azrael: Because unlike the lovely ladies, I am rather open to new ideas and I can sense the truth in you as well. So tell me......are you really the co-founder of an entire army and agency in a different world?

Y/N: Yeah.

Azrael: And you all are from different worlds as well? Separate ones?

Ink: *cough* Yeah. Not like anyone would care.





His grin immediately drops as he gains a serious look.

Azrael: *serious* I do care for the safety of this world and I do care if there is grave danger to everyone here. I am willing to negotiate and do whatever it takes to maintain the status quo. When did you say this Nation Guardian is arriving?

Y/N: Two days from now.

Azrael: I need to relay this to my co-workers. I am not sure I can convince them but I'll do my best to get them to assist you in this fight.

Y/N: Thank you Azrael.

Azrael: *serious* And tell me more about this Union. I'd like to know more about the danger they can pose here.


Seeing that he was willing to trust them, Y/N discusses with him quietly about the AAU and Union while his friends and girlfriends all listen in, contributing to the conversation as everyone in the bar stares at them weirdly.














But there's no time to waste.
