The Forgotten Dragon - Highschool DxD FanFiction

10 - Assult

I pulled out my phone and started a call with Rias as I flew onto the roof of one of the houses. "There could be something suspicious going on here." I spoke as I tried to peer through the broken and dirty windows. "There seems to be a green smoke or light lingering around warehouse 8c, I just can't see any sort of entrance or vantage point except through the front." Rias made a bang on the other side of the call. "Sure, I will be right there." She then turned her attention to someone else. "Akeno prepare a portal to warehou-" She cut herself off by ending the call and a circle appeared on the ground.

Rias and Akeno dragged themselves through the portal followed by Issei, Koneko, Kiba and Xenovia. We all made our way down towards the warehouses front entrance and Rias got my attention. I turned to face her and she handed me half a mask. "If your eye changes, put this on." I sighed. "What so I can look stupid?" I put it in my man bag and then closed it. "Koneko, will you do the honours." Koneko stepped up to the large entrance and grabbed a hold of it. She then pulled it straight out the wall and threw it to the side. "Good job." Rias praised her as we all walked in.

We were all instantly met with a crazed laughter. We all looked up to the walkways high above us revealing multiple mages. "We were going to go after you, but you're here now." One of them jumped down as he created a staff. "We have the strengthened powers of the divine ones above us to for fill this mission. I hope you enjoy dying by my hands." He pointed the staff's tip towards us and launched a massive beam. I ran in the way and created a large shield which blocked the attack. "Wow, fast." He said as he stopped the attack. I made my shield disappear and then heard a fast approaching whistle. I created my gauntlet and watched an arrow come straight at me.

Everybody dispersed from the entrance except me. I moved slightly and grabbed a hold of the arrow. I spun myself around quickly and threw the arrow back into the air. It shot back into a dark corner of the warehouse which was filled with only shadows. I then heard a bang and then saw someone fall over the railing. They plummeted to the ground, it was the archer. I stepped up to her and pulled the arrow out from her shoulder blade. I then grabbed her bow off her and pulled the string back. An arrow magically appeared out of thin air, already loaded in he mechanism. I pointed the bow at the archer and shot it at her. My glove disappeared.

She seemed to turn into a strange dust which matched the colour of the sky but with hints of light blue and yellow. I then caused the bow to disappear. I then heard a galloping, or some sort of running, like a horse running on concrete. It seemed to come from outside of the warehouse. I rushed out and saw a woman, engulfed in green fires riding a horse. The horse was completely skeletal, made up of bones with the rest of him being hollow. The woman on horseback pulled out a sword and pointed it at me. "Yuki, it's been a while." I sighed. "I come back to the human realm only to be 'greeted' by all of you violently." I created my glove and it seemed to have stayed a different shape.

I looked at it confused. "It's just upgraded." I nodded as I changed it's form. I then felt my face go numb for a second, with the numbness fading but from my eye. Everything went grey, it was happening. I quickly pulled out my mask and put it on the left side of my face. It was just a plain white mask. It had a protective piece of see through material over the eye hole. I felt stronger all of a sudden. A strange red glow surrounded me as a strange shards of armour surrounded me. They seemed to float just above my skin, not touching each other with small gaps in between each shard, the thing which seemed to be holding everything together was the glow. The armour changed itself to red.

I swayed side to side as I stared down the woman on horseback. She only laughed, "just as strong, I see." I frowned. "Are you with them?" I muttered under my breath. "What was that?" She smiled as she could tell I was getting annoyed, she then readjusted her helmet. "Are you with them?" I screamed as the light around me grew stronger turning into a large aura. "It depends who them is." She laughed. "Fine." I took a deep breath as the rope around my arm made its way into my hand. It turned itself into a broken sword. "I won't hold back, but I won't kill you using this weapon. Make your move!" I shouted. She looked at me confused.

"If that's really what you wish." She swung her sword down to her side and it ignited with green flames. She then charged towards me without hesitation. I pointed my sword upwards and stood my ground. As she drew closed, I managed to move towards her within it took her the time to notice, I would say I was as fast as light. I took a slice at her side and seemed to teleport behind her quite far. I waited a second and then she stopped. She climbed down off her horse gripping her waist. "This isn't good." She muttered. I turned around and charged at her. I cut her once again with my sword before she could react. She then tried to get me. I blocked the attack and pushed her back.

My sword extended its broken blade out. "I made have to take more of a lethal approach." I created my shield in my other hand and charged at her. She swung her sword at me and I deflected it with my shield. I then cut along her leg with my sword. She fell to the ground and her horse charged away. I pulled her helmet off and held the sword to her neck. "Leave this place, return to heaven and never come back, or else I'll hunt you down personally." I took the sword away and it wrapped up my arm again. I stepped away, without looking back. I walked back into the warehouse, everyone had pretty much been dealt with. "Who was that?" Rias questioned me. I didn't respond, rather stared ahead of me.

"He has the mask on, guess he really did do it then." I heard talking in the other room. I was still sitting on my bed in the dark, I couldn't think straight and had a pain going through my face. "Why can't we relax for a while?" I sighed to myself as my hand began to glow. "All I'm saying is at this year, there is no relaxing with a potential war on the horizon." I looked at my glove for a second then fell backwards laying my head on the pillow. "Anyway, I have to wear this stupid mask until my eye fixes." I took the mask off and looked at it. "It's really pathetic, like I have to hide my face."
