Deja Vu

Chapter 1: I've Been Dealt Worse Hands By Fate

Where are you..? A group of men are all looking at you, and the one in the middle speaks up.

"Welcome to Devildom, ___. Oh, shocked, are you? As a human, it may take some time for you to get used to Devildom."
You stare in silence, trying to get your bearings. One moment, you were in the hall, listening to Ace and Deuce talking about some incident that happened in Applied Spellworks class, and the next, you're in a completely different place and the people in front of you seem to know who you are.
The man continues speaking, and you consider it best to listen, in hopes that you can glean some kind of hint as to who he is, and what this place is, and why you're here. He calls himself 'Diavolo' and 'The ruler of all demons'. He explains that this is a campus.

You're starting to get a familiar headache. Did this happen to you again? You didn't touch a carriage. There's no magic mirror here.

"Where the hell is Crowley..?" You ask, eyes narrowing. If they know your name, maybe they know Crowley. And if they know Crowley, then this is his fault.

"Ah! Yes! Your guardian and headmaster! He was very nice to speak with when we met. He's back in the human realm, where you came from." The man is smiling, but you're visibly pissed.

Crowley called himself your guardian? What the hell is he making you do now? What lows will that bastard not sink to? What, did he decide to send you away without telling you? Something about that feels so goddamn appropriate. "Why am I here?"

"I will explain everything to you." A new voice speaks up. It's a dark-haired man with red eyes. He's introduced as Lucifer, the demon "Avatar of Pride". Right away, it's apparent that he's both important and has a lot riding on his shoulders. The sunshiny Diavolo seems to have a liking to him though. He greets you warmly and very professionally. You're almost a little sorry that he's going to have to deal with your rage, because it is stirring like a growing storm with every second that passes.

"Answer my question." You say, on-guard and annoyed.

And yet, he seems amused by your demands. Even compares you to someone named.. 'Solomon'? He explains Diavolo's plan to strengthen relations between different realms- All of which is a foreign concept to you entirely. Human World? Celestial Realm? What's this place? If these people aren't humans, does that mean they really consider themselves demons? What sets them apart from humans? They look so.. Human.

You almost get lost in your thoughts when it hits you.
You're an exchange student?
They plan to keep you here for an entire year?
Oh hell naw Crowley-

Before you can really protest, the man before you explains that you'll need someone to protect you and watch out for you, and that this person's name will be Mammon. The "Avatar of Greed". He does, however, hand you a cellphone-esque device.

Already, this place is very different from your stay at the Night Raven College. It took you over a year to get Crowley to give you a cellphone, and he put you on the most limited plan he possibly could, claiming that you should only use it for emergencies. AND HE DIDN'T EVEN ANSWER WHEN YOU CALLED HIM ABOUT EMERGENCIES. Here, you're getting a cellphone immediately, and you're not responsible for yourself? They also explain that your data is unlimited, and you've got unlimited texting and calling.

...

Okay. Well, maybe this might be interesting.

You call up this 'Mammon'. You explain to him that he's in charge of you now. He immediately tells you "No way! There's nothing in it for me." Well this feels like it's getting off to a great start. You explain that it's what Lucifer told you, and he just scoffs. Lucifer, listening to the call to ensure that the transfer of power goes well, begins counting down so that Mammon can hear him, which quickly changes Mammon's tune. After having to be the one who solves all the problems and makes shit happen at Night Raven College, it's refreshing to have someone who is capable doing the work for you.

Lucifer begins to introduce you to two others of the council, which both appear to be his brothers; Asmodeus, the "Avatar of Lust" and Satan, the "Avatar of Wrath". Wait, isn't this a school? A college, like Night Raven?

"... Avatar of Lust?" The words seem so strange coming off your lips. As though you're not really sure you should be saying them yourself. NRC didn't really go much into the birds and the bees, it was mostly just a place where they learned magic and trained physical physique. Do they study an even more wide variety of magic in this place? As soon as the words leave your mouth, this Asmodeus guy seems really keen on showing you what that means. He mentions that his title is related to his power? He offers to give you a demonstration.

You figure, well, that's a pretty good way of learning about this world, yeah? Looking into his eyes, he coos warmly to you, bubbling at your compliance, but he's then caught off-guard. You feel nothing, but Satan explains that if you're not careful, Asmodeus will charm you to do his bidding and then.. Eat you??

He seems taken aback that Satan would tell you such a thing, but.. no one's refuting it??? Not even the headmaster???
