Once Upon A Time

Chapter Seven: Slau-Beat-Ah Hell Fight!

(If you really want to get a feel for this, I find listening Circus for a Psycho by Skillet, really does this part good. Oh and yes, same song he's listening to when he finally decides he was done beating around the bush.)

As soon as the barrier went, the snow white monster dashed straight for the still recovering blonde bird. Fist cocked back and instigating a full blown fist fight, as soon as said fist crashed into the blonde's face he found himself off the ground with his body in midair with himself falling back. Riser was pissed, but he was too slow to stop all of this from happening to himself.

Then the snow haired male grabbed the blonde quite literally by the head with one hand, brought his arm up and slammed it down into the ground with a godly amount of strength. Letting go just to let Raiser recover as Dante walked a bit away to allow his little 'magic' as everyone called it, to change him. In a matter of five seconds, Riser had gotten back up, but Dante was completely changed. Wearing his casual outfit, left shoulder out in the open with his leathery coat, the large left glove going up and stopping half way up his bicep. The leather latches holding said glove in place. (Again, Dante wears what Nemesis does in Resident Evil 3) Large black boots, black leather combat jeans, not only that, but on his left shoulder, there was something new, a tattoo that no one could remember where it came from. It was that of a black wolf head with a duel sword background with a knight's shield around it.

Riser, while now standing began to prep a large fireball before all of a sudden.

BANG!

A loud cracking noise rang out and then Riser felt something impact his chest, then another, and another and then they continued in quick succession, just slamming into him, not through though. It was as if whatever was hitting him wasn't meant for actually killing.

Dante was standing there holding two obviously nine-millimeter Beretta handguns, stalk gun metal black with extended magazines if the long thing protruding from the bottom was any indication. The barrel looks a bit longer as well. Obviously was customized, but then again, no one was going to question Dante on this, for one, he was still a hunter. Two, he was easily able to beat Akeno at magic, and three, well; he always has something surprising for people who don't know him.

The maid of Gremory was confused and shocked by how a normal human weapon had done some much to knock Riser back quite a bit and stop his attack indefinitely. This though, while in Riser's mind, was in too much pain to even understand.

Then, his voice rang out. "Serious? This is all you're capable of? I'm only using 9 Mil. Damnit you suck…" Dante spoke with annoyance, he wanted a fight, not a total beat down, but this is better than nothing from this bird brain fuck up. Well, that was before a sudden flaming ball impacted him in the gut and sent him back a good bit. Boots skidding and leaving an indent in the ground before it finally stop and the fireball disappeared. Leaving a scorch mark on the leathery under coat and a bit of scorch marks on the opening part of the outer trench coat.

Riser was now standing full and tall, still feeling the sting of the magic rounds that impacted his gut and chest, he started to gather another fireball before they all heard a loud growling noise. Slowly, Dante's head went from looking down at the ground from the earlier impact, to looking up at Riser. Golden eyes holding slit pupils, teeth showing as a very, very, very sinister grin appeared upon his face. "Now that's more like it…" the dark tone showing before he suddenly started running, making a circle like run around Riser as he started to fire both his weapons as the foolish blond.

As entertaining as it was, everyone on the sidelines, including Grayfia started to actually feel a denser killer intent, a large amount of energy spiking just from his eyes taking that shape and his anger rising. The maid stared at the human power-house before Dante holstered his weapons, and the very evil grin still upon his features. Slowly his right arm moved to his left and grabbed one of the straps to the gloves, unlatching it, and slowly pulling it out like a small leather belt, as soon as it was removed another spike in energy happened in front of everyone, and then they heard him drop that little leather belt with a couple strange spellings on it.

"Let's see how the phoenix tangos with my fire demon!" As soon as that was said, Dante's left arm shot up, and with the snap of his finger, a large purple and fiery snake like creature went flying straight at Riser. Growing in size almost instantly to swallow him whole, which upon flying straight at him, mouth open and then it did swallow him, kind of; it hit him and flew through him, but not before igniting Riser in violet flames. "Good job Chiquita (I think that's right?)!" he shouted with a kind of Hispanic accent, copying the one fire mage from his past that help put him down before being reincarnated.

Eyes were wide, a fire demon, a fire, DEMON! He had a fucking contract with a fire, a violet flame, DEMON! Rias, Akeno, Koneko, Everyone's eyes were so wide you could swear they were going to fall out. Only a few people could ever, ever, EVER! Even think about getting a contract with them, but him, he has one, and calls the demon Chiquita…CHIQUITA FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

Asides from that, they continued to watch before the fire demon went back to his hand and began to swim around it before he smiled to the demon and mouthed something. Quickly he replaced the leather strap around his arm, sealing away that magic before looking to the damaged and now attempting to heal himself, Riser Phoenix.

All Dante said was this, "Give up, or Die now…your choice." And with that, he started to walk away, step by step, and with each one, he could just feel the blonde devil grow in anger. Until, a fire ball shot past his head, and an invisible grin appeared on Dante's pale face.

"You will bow to me human! Even if I have to burn your legs off to make you do it!" The arrogant male cried out in hostility, but then everyone stopped, as they seen Dante's golden eyes, brighten up and instead of the slits. What they seen truly frightened them. The white parts of the eyes, turned black as night, the pupil, had a red glow and outline, the iris's outline was glowing violet, and the iris itself, was golden with a ring of silver in it. The insane grin showing on Dante's face.

"I was hoping you'd say that, now I can bring out my babies to play." He stated before holding his hands up and a sudden shimmer of light appearing in each one before it shattered like glass and was replaced with two weapons. Both of them seemed to be if of base look of a standard . Desert Eagle, but they were obviously different. Both had markings and were made of different bits. The one on the left had inscribed on its side "For one to create" and the other side was "One must first destroy" that was on the black side arm inscribed in silver. The black one was obviously customized for maximum hit capacity, a longer barrel, heavier hammer, everything down to the enchanted marks of both the holy cross firing hammer, to the pentagrams on the sides of the handles.

The other side arm was the same kind of weapon. D-Eagle but this time, the color was full blown silver, and inscribed on its left side was "Death comes to those who expect it the least" and on its right side was "He who believes the lies of life will cry in the truth of death." (Each inscription is in a more italic cursive font.) This one was pretty much the same, except the inscriptions were in black, and the changes of this one were obvious for rapid fire capabilities and to the trained eye, you could obviously see a fire-rate-selection. At the moment, was set to burst.

"Meet Lucy, and Eve. These two are my prized weapons, and they just so happen to have more than meets the eye. Lucy, my black monster of a weapon, is for long range and high impact and piercing for maximum damage. She has a twenty round magazine, though you can see the full length of this magazine due to the sealing magic I put on the weapon. Eve, is my silverette, this little baby holds fifty rounds and can spit them out faster than you can say bang." He stated aiming them both at Riser. "They can shoot whatever type of rounds or magic I pump into them, and what's more? I made them and put undead souls of old friends into them…So, let's see how you handle the kindred spirits of us three." He smirked before he quite literally vanished from sight, quicker than any untrained eye, Kiba could keep up, and so could Koneko, Rias sadly was having a hard time, Akeno was too confused to understand what was going on.

But the one who understood the most and could tell easier was the maid of Gremory, the ultimate queen. For some reason, his psychopathic male reminded her of her husband somehow, that or someone she used to know. Shrugging it off, she watched intently.

Riser was moving as fast as he could running dodging, hell he had to start flying to dodge to the best of his abilities, if it wasn't being shot at by 3 rounds at a time, it was almost full blown sniper accuracy with the ability to take down a fucking full blown armored Tank crew with said magnum from Dante. And the amount of rounds and pure magic that was fired from the weapons, it was just pure insanity about how much energy and stamina this male had.

About twenty minutes later, Dante stood over Riser. Both guns pointed down straight at his head with a smirk. "Sad to say Riser, you lose, and what's worse, I forgot to mention one thing…." This intrigued everyone before his eyes snapped to the simple slits of gold but the black remained in the whites of his eyes. "As I stated before, these weapons, have souls literally inside of them, they live, breathe, think, that kind of thing. What they live off of? Other soul that's what….meaning if I use these on you that would naturally kill anyone or anything else you do die….completely. Your soul is taken by these two weapons, split evenly and made into a snack, while I get the body to use." The grin had disappeared and turned into a serious one.

"Goodbye Riser Phoenix, I knew you all too well in an hour of meeting your perverted ass…" And then there was a click, which surprised everyone, blinking, Dante looked at his weapons and eyes went wide. Ice was blocking the entire top half of the guns plus the barrels."…Ho-" He didn't even finish his sentence before his instincts kicked in and he dived away in search for cover as a set of icy kunai like weapons hit the ground near him.

(Please note, I simply GUESSED her abilities, I truly, don't know, couldn't find it on the wiki and I haven't caught up on the series as of late so I'm behind, by a lot.)

A feminine voice was heard at that moment. "I'm afraid Dante-san I cannot allow you to kill the heir to the Phoenix family." Dante looked over to see it was the maid, Grayfia, who stopped him. Looking to Rias, he sighed and looked to Riser before standing up and slapping his weapons against his thighs, shattering the ice like it was nothing more than mere glass. "Fine…" He said before he was swarmed by what looked like flies, and in seconds, his outfit changed a gain into his normal school outfit, well, with the addition to the new ass long trench coat. (Pretty much like Anko's trench coat from Naruto (The series))

"Please note though, if he gets out of line again, I will kill him, not as a servant of Gremory as my temporary status is by my contract, but as a Hunter protecting that of which is to him family. And due note, you should be careful of your own actions as well, we do not wish to start another great war." He warned her with a tone that normally only a parent gets with a child, this tone actually surprised most, because it had an experience behind it, at least, that's how it felt to them.

With that, Dante simply turned and started to walk off, going home to shower and probably get a nap, or maybe go find a slut in the red light district of town and get laid. SOMETHING.

Finally! Final-fucking-ly! Done. HAHAHA! Got it done!...anywho!

What's up? Sorry for taking so goddamn long but my new schedule with school and all is fucking insane and annoying as FUCK.

So here's another chapter to hold you over...Also, you know what, I may regret asking this, but I'm going to.

Lemon scene, Asia and Dante, want one or not? (NOTE! This would just be a one night stand kind of lemon, not something that'll blossom into romance.)

Anywho, This is Demon's Poet, signing off..OH Dante! Do the disclaimer cause I forgot to.

Dante:*Sigh* DP, I'm going to seriously kick your ass sooner or later if you keep forgetting this shit, hell I almost forgot I had a fanfiction of me going. For fuck sakes, I've been working at Burger King to feed myself you ass hat.

DP:Yeah yeah! Shut the hell up and do the disclaimer before I kick your ass out on the street.

Dante:*Cursing under his breathe before taking a deep breathe* Demon's Poet does not own Highschool DXD, Or Clive Barker's Jericho, He DOES however own Me and my character idea. Note not the "firstborn" think though, just the reincarnation idea at the moment. Though due to free use policies and him just not really caring anyone can use it if they so please. Also, I'd like to state, No. Demon's Poet does not make any money off this or any of his fanfictions...which reminds me, DP...you're ass is grass if you don't finish some more fucking chapters on the other fanfictions.

DP:I know I know!

Well, Bye bye for now. Later!
