A long time ago, it was thought to be pre-determined before your birth whether you would carry on your life on the path of good or the path of evil. Some people have changed their thoughts on this and say people can change. But even at that, can people really change?
Sierra Fidelis and Leo Volaticus lived their lives together as Nobles in their town of Regium for ten years. On the night of his tenth birthday, Leo mysteriously disappeared. The Knights searched the forest for days, and then weeks, but never found young Leo. Some say that he was stolen by Thieves, or shot with an arrow by Archers, or taken to some strange land by the Mages. Not even Sierra knew where he best friend had run off to.
Eight years passed, and any hope of finding Leo was long gone. Sierra, following through with her dream to be a Knight, chases a Thief into the surrounding forest. After that, she finds Leo's true fate. Would she have been better off accepting he was dead?
So can you really turn good after being evil? How do you know when you've reached your limit?

Having been presumed dead, Akira woke up without any recollection of who he was.

Something he's good at. "Kill. Kill them all." As he slowly regains his memories, he begins to remember the things he's done. The pain he's felt, the regret he soon comes to bear, the sins of innocent lives he's taken. Remembering all this only furthers his drive to forget the pain and to bury it.

"I was only helping. I know you're angry Lucious, but you can't go around doing whatever you want anymore. My father has laws in place for these types of things."

The Neglected Pawn that became the God of War
Oscar use to be a Shared Pawn for Rias Gremory & Sona Sitri, but he feels less like a member of the groups and more like an afterthought since Issei & Saji's introduction into the peerages. It angered him to no ends. He was the one who helped them all with their problems, he was the one who made their average lives easier & he was the one who did all the heavy lifting. But everything he did went to Issei & Saji because they were holders of Dragon Sacred Gears, while he had nothing: no magical powers, no Sacred Gears, no nothing! One day, after defeating Rizevim & getting his credit stolen again, he overheard nearly everyone talking about making Issei, Saji & Vali, their newest member in their Brotherhood of Perverts, both the Pillars of the Supernatural World & the Champions of the Greek/Norse/Hindu Pantheons. They agreed under one condition: Oscar must be removed from the Peerage & be demoted to their servant. He was outraged by their demand, which grew worse after they immediately agreed to it while also badmouthing him. This was the straw that broke that Camel's back. He renounces his allegiance to them & vows that he'll make them regret ever ignoring him. He was met with the few Supernaturals that haven't wronged him as they gifted him a few things, including a necklace that hides him from the eyes of the Devils, Angels, Yokais, Greeks, Norns & Shintos. He thanked them for their help and tells them he'll do whatever they'll ask for him. Stopping by Kuoh to say goodbye to his friend group, which is the Kendo Club, to say his final goodbyes to them. But they decided to join him as they all head off with him.
Vixen
"Are you willing to risk everything?" He asked, leaning his face in closer until our foreheads touched and our lips were barely an inch apart. His blue eyes were so deep and dark today, but not in the menacing way, more so in a lustful longing. My heart was speeding so erratically in my chest that I was afraid that it might just pop right out. Say yes! My wolf cheered. She was waiting for this ever since we first found his smell. That alluring smell of security. Well my thoughts were really getting muddled. "I have nothing to lose," I stated bluntly while trying to distract my heart. And then abruptly he backed away, taking my breath away with him. I wasn't sure what to make of the situation. We both stood there standing speechless for a moment. I couldn't help but to feel a disgusted that he would act like he wanted me and then pull away so harshly. "You selfish son of a cunt," --- In her run for freedom and to find out who she is, Cora ends up entangled in the arms of Raphael, the relentless beast.
