Chapter 1-3 (exceptional)

(Unknown Location)

The green armored warrior watched as the body of what could be described as a giant mutated, technorganic spider's body exploded into blood and gore. Its parts flew across the floor and covered it with even more blood. Nothing remained of its upper half, the large weapon in the warrior's hands saw to that. For a moment, the man appeared about to take a breather.

That's when arcs of electricity suddenly flared all around him. Looking around in alarm, he saw his HUD come alive. 'Tether Activation' blinked across his vision before it was filled by a bright flash of light. The next moment he was standing in what appeared to be a laboratory. Looking around at the lab, the man watched as a tall robot approached him from the smoke. Anger towards this robotic being seemed to fill the man's heart as he glared at the approaching automaton.

"You've won…it's over." The robot said in a male voice. It drew closer until it was just a foot away from him. "But it's come at a price. Argent, VEGA, this entire operation."

The man seemed to say something, but the words could not be heard. However, the robot clearly heard them as he replied, "Perhaps, but you failed to see what I had to do." It said. "You see, I've watched you work, come to understand your motivation. You think the only way is to kill them all, leave nothing behind, and you may be right. But we can't just shut it all down. Without Argent Energy it will be worse."

Energy began to hum as the machine the man was in began to power up. The machine continued to speak. "I don't expect you to understand or agree." said the machine. He snapped out his hand, and a demonic looking object was suddenly yanked from man's belt and into the cyborg's awaiting palm. "But with this, we can continue our work."

As if enraged, whether on what the cyborg did or said, the man latched out at the robot. Only to find himself ensnared by energy binds. Ignoring his struggles, the cyborg added, "I am not the villain here, Doom Slayer. I do what I do because there is no other choice."

"Re-routing tether coordinates. Complete." Chimed the facility's voice.

"Our time is up." said the cyborg as he looked at man's restrained form. "I can't kill you, but I won't have you standing in our way." He snapped his arm that was holding the object, the artifact's top end opening and projecting a red energy blade covered in hellion script with a pickaxe-like tip. "Until we see each other again."

The teleportation unit started firing, energy arcing along his form again. But the man paid them no mind. As the energy surge got stronger, the cyborg turned and prepared to head back where he had come from. he man could only watch in silent rage as the world was consumed in a flash of white.

(Present Time)

Eyes opening wide, a young man in his late teens who was about six feet tall shot out of bed with a gasp. He shot out of bed, knocking the blanket off him, revealing his lean muscular tanned body. His short dark brown hair was a bit disheveled having woken and his brown eyes bleary. Most notably, were the numerous scars and symbols that covered his body, including the ones over his palm and another where his heart is. His face also has scars, including a small one over the left eyebrow, one running diagonally his right cheek and finally a third scar going across the bridge of his nose.

Flynn Blazkowicz rubbed his eyes as he slowly woke up. That had been the fifth time this month since he had that dream, and dreams similar to it. All of them were of that green armored man, fighting against demonic monsters. Every time he did so with brutal efficiency, like a beast in rage. And every time, it felt like he was the one doing it. It made no sense to Flynn, but it wasn't time to focus on that. Right now, he had to get ready for his first day at Kuoh Academy.

The reason why he was going to a school in Japan was because of his caretaker. Named Windsor, the man had sent Flynn to the country to attend the prestigious school after having Flynn stay in London for three months. Flynn had no idea why, but Windsor believed it was a good idea for him to meet other cultures and 'see things from another angle', whatever that meant. Either way, it was time to get ready.

A few minutes later and after a quick breakfast, Flynn was now dressed in the male Kuoh Academy uniform. The slight differences were that he had the blazer and buttoned shirt open, revealing a black t-shirt underneath. Around his neck was a chain necklace holding a rabbit's foot. Flynn then grabbed his bag and headed out the door of the two-story house he was staying in, paid for courtesy of Windsor. Leaning against the mailbox was a green and black Chopper motorcycle. Flynn had bought it after seeing it in front of a motorbike store and fell in love with the cycle at first sight. After unhooking the bike from the mailbox, Flynn put his helmet on and started the engine. With a roar, the young man took off towards the academy.

His home was only thirty minutes away from the academy, giving him thirty more minutes to get to class on time. Thus, when Flynn arrived, there were still students walking through the large, extravagant gate. Unfortunately, the appearance of his motorcycle caught a lot of attention. Students, both genders, watched as Flynn parked his bike in the parking lot. After locking it to the bike rack, Flynn took off his helmet, allowing everyone to see his face. Students began whispering to one another, taking glances at Flynn. Said person ignored them as he made his way towards the school entrance. As he walked up the stairs, he spotted a girl who wore the Kuoh Academy uniform. She had a tomboyish appearance with blue, shoulder-length hair and matching eyes. The girl was tall for her age, but her head only reached Flynn's shoulders.

Seeing that he still needed to find the Student Council room, Flynn decided to approach her. "Excuse me" He began, getting the girl's attention. "My name is Flynn Blazkowicz. I'm a transfer student and I need to find the Student Council room. Do you know where that is?"

At the words 'transfer student', the girl perked up. "Oh! You must be the one I was supposed to wait for. I'm Tsubasa Yura, a member of the Student Council. I am to bring you to see Kaichou. Follow me." The named Tsubasa said as she headed into the school. Flynn shrugged and followed.

As he walked behind her, Flynn couldn't help but take note of some peculiar details. Not her appearance, mind you, but rather the strange feeling he was getting from the blue haired girl. It felt familiar in an oddly bad way, and for some reason he felt the desire to tear her head from her shoulders. Flynn mentally shook the thought away as the two arrived at a door.

Tsubasa did several knocks, which was received by a stern "Come in" from inside the room. Opening the door, Flynn was greeted by two girls. Both had dark raven colored hair and wore rectangular glasses. The one sitting at a desk her hair styled in a bob cut and violet eyes. The second girl standing next to the first one had hers flowing long down her back. She had light brown eyes. They both wore the female school uniform.

"Kaichou, I brought the transfer student." Tsubasa announced as she led Flynn into the room.

"Thank you, Tsubasa." The bob cut girl said. Standing up the girl turned her attention towards Flynn. "Greetings. My name is Souna Shitori, I am the Student Council President of Kuoh Academy. However, please call me Kaichou. And this is my Vice-President, Tsubaki Shinra." Souna introduced herself while raising a hand.

"My name is Flynn Blazkowicz. Please to meet you, Kaichou." Flynn said as he shook her hand…and was suddenly filled with thoughts of slaughtering these three girls in the most brutal way possible. Flynn couldn't suppress the shudder as he tried to shrug the murderous desires.

Souna took notice of this. "Are you okay, Blazkowicz-san?" She asked.

"Y-yeah. Apologize, sometimes I get headaches due to my amnesia." Flynn said as he managed to recover.

"Ah, yes. Your file makes mentioned of that." Souna said as Tsubaki handed her a folder filled with paper. "According to your files, you were in a car accident on the outskirts of London in the middle of the night. You received minor injuries as well as a severe concussion to the head, the cause for your amnesia. All you could remember was your name. After being discharged you were taken in by a Mr. Windsor and lived in London for about a year before coming here to Kuoh and are to be a third-year."

'Damn, talk about detailed.' Were Flynn's thoughts, but instead said, "Yeah, that pretty much sums it up. My caretaker wanted me to experience new places to see if it would help jog my memory."

Souna hummed as she kept reading the file. "Well, I admit that yours is not what we normally accept here in Kuoh Academy. However, you seem to behave yourself, so I suppose we can give you the benefit of the doubt." She said.

"My thanks, Kaichou." Flynn said.

"Anyway, here is your class schedule, Blazkowicz-san. Enjoy your time at Kuoh Academy." Souna said as she gave Flynn a piece of paper with his classes.

"Mhm." Flynn murmured as he headed out of the room. 'I just hope this school doesn't have to many oddballs here.'

(Hours Later)

'I take that back. They don't have a few, they have a lot!' Flynn thought as he sat in his current class, biology.

By lunchtime Flynn was beginning to have doubts about the sanity of this school. During his trek to his second class that Flynn saw three males being chased by a mob of girls wielding shinai, followed by screams of pain and terror. The transfer student later learned that the boys were known as the infamous Perverted Trio, second year students who were notorious for their opened l.u.s.t for the female body that they would even peek on girls in the changing room.

Flynn wasn't sure what was odder: That those three hadn't been expelled or that no one was commenting on the Kendo Club members publicly using their shinai. That technically counted as an assault even if it was used on some guys spying on you.

Speaking of girls, throughout the first couple of classes Flynn had, he'd been hearing about the 'Two Great Ladies of Kuoh', Rias Gremory and Akeno Himejima. From what Flynn gathered, they were a pair of third year girls who were the most popular and considered the most beautiful in the academy. He hadn't met them in person yet, but he got enough physical description of them that Flynn was sure he'd recognize them. And don't even ask about the kind of comments the students were saying about them. On a side note, Souna Shitori and Tsubaki Shinra were considered the third and fourth most beautiful girls respectively.

Finally, Flynn learned that there was a popular second grader. Known as Yuuto Kiba, a blonde hair boy called "The Prince of Kuoh". The reason being was he was considered by many girls to be the most handsome male student in the school. Like the girls, they were no small numbers of comments about him, though he also had many insults and curses hurled towards him from the boys.

Class soon ended, and it was time for lunch. As he walked out, Flynn saw that a lot of girls were swarming Kiba from the classroom across from his. Flynn ignored that and instead headed out to the cafeteria. He had heard that the school had recently set up new cappuccino machines outside the cafeteria entrance and wanted to try it. It was free, so Flynn didn't have to pay for anything. When he used it took only a few seconds for Flynn to get the kind of coffee he wanted. Unfortunately, he wasn't looking where he was going and accidentally knocked into someone behind him.

Said person was a young girl with long black hair tied into a ponytail with purple eyes. She also had an abnormally large bust. If the description was accurate, then this person was Akeno Himejima. Back to the present Flynn's coffee spilled on her shirt. Furthermore, she had squealed when the hot liquid had spilled on her, which made things even worse. In hindsight though, that was a normal reaction for anyone really. When Flynn looked at her, he felt like the atmosphere had turned into a total clichéthat people would watch on anime.

A light blush was on Akeno's face, making her seem helpless. The stain was all over her bust all things, making her bra visible, and the vibe around her was both dangerous yet somewhat innocent. When looking at her, any guy would normally react in a worried manner or get excited seeing a famous school idol like this. Though Flynn knew that most guys would fall into the latter category. However, Flynn felt nothing like that as he looked at her. In fact, he would rather just get this whole cliché feeling to end, especially since the urge to kill her was beginning to return. Flynn wondered if he should have a shrink check him out.

Anyway, Flynn let out a sigh as he went into the cafeteria. A few seconds later he returned and handed Akeno a towel. Personally, he would rather just leave the scene, but Flynn figured that he would be on the receiving end of some nasty glares and rumors and he rather not let that happen on his first day of school. "Here, use this to dry yourself of the stains." Flynn said before walking off.

Meanwhile, Akeno just blinked. She was surprised that he didn't overreact before saying, "Ah, thank you…"

(Afternoon)

School had ended. Students were now walking out of the academy grounds and returning to their homes. Many of them were either walking on their own or in groups. Flynn was a part of the former, getting his motorcycle revved up before taking off. Unknown to him, he would soon become the topic between some of the residential Devils at Kuoh Academy.

Souna Shitori, or Sona Sitri as she was truly called, was playing chess with a buxom redhead girl with blue eyes. This person was Rias Gremory, the most beautiful girl in Kuoh Academy. With them were their Queens, Tsubaki and Akeno. "Has Hyoudou adjusted to his new life as a Devil?" Sona asked Rias.

"Yes. As I'm sure you can imagine he was quite shocked. Though he quickly got over it when I mentioned he could get a harem once he became a high-class devil." Rias said, smiling as she remembered how her new Pawn reacted. "He's been very energetic in doing his Devil duties."

Sona sighed. "Course he did. Anyway, I've been meaning to ask, have you met the new transfer student? Flynn Blazkowicz."

Rias blinked, curious why her childhood friend would ask that. "No, I haven't, but Akeno had a little incident with him today. She was going to tell me before you invited us here."

Sona raised an eyebrow and looked at her friend's Queen. "Is that true?" She asked.

Akeno nodded as she thought back to the incident earlier in the day. "Yes, he had bumped into me by accident and gotten latte on my shirt. I must say, I'm really interested in him because he wasn't excited about seeing me, since I'm considered the number two idol and all. Also, he wasn't overreacting when that latte spilled on my chest area, or even excited about seeing it. In fact, he looked at me with complete annoyance~" She giggled the last part.

The other girls blinked at Akeno's flush faced upon mentioning the last part. It was clearly a fond memory to her. Though Rias suspected so, given her Queen's taste.

"…I see" Sona said, adjusting her glasses. "But besides that, was there anything else odd when you encounter him?"

Akeno thought for a moment. "Well, now that I think about it. There was brief moment when I felt killing intent from him when he saw me. However, the spike immediately disappeared. He seemed to have had forced it down, as if it had originally come unconsciously." She said seriously.

"Really?" Rias asked, surprised by that. Normal high schoolers would not be able to emit bloodl.u.s.t in the first place. "Did something happen to you, Sona?"

"Yes. When I greeted him this morning, a I felt a quick wave of bloodl.u.s.t from him. I can't really describe it, but it was as if a ferocious beast was about to pounce on me and tear me into pieces." Sona said. She mentally shuddered at the memory. She had almost used her magic, as well as Tsubaki. "Tsubasa also reported a similar experience."

"Hmmm" Rias hummed as she rubbed her chin. "And it only happened when he ran into one of us. Do you think Blazkowicz might suspect us to be Devils?"

"I'm not sure." Sona replied. "To be honest, his amnesia also seems rather suspicious, and I've had no luck on finding any information on this caretaker of his. Windsor, I believe was his name. For now, we should move our attention to these Fallen Angels that seem to have enter Kuoh."

"Agreed" Rias said as she got up. "I should return to the old school building. I'm sure my cute servants will be waiting for me."

(Later that night)

"Man, I wish the grocery store was closer to where I live." Flynn commented as he walked out of said building. His hands were carrying a bag of food.

He had gotten home hours ago. After eating something, doing homework and then relaxing, Flynn had realized that he did not have enough food for the week. So, he had to head out on his bike again and get to the nearest store before it closed since it was so late in the evening. The good news was he managed to reach the store in time and pick up the food. The bad news was that it had taken an hour on the main road to get from his house to the store in the first place. That what Flynn gets for choosing to live in the suburbs.

Anyway, Flynn finished placing the food into the compartment attached to the motorcycle before taking off. A few minutes after leaving, Flynn spotted a small dirt road splitting off from the main one. 'Could be a shortcut for all I know. Might as well try it.' Flynn mused as he made the turn onto the dirt path. By now, nighttime had fully come, and it was completely pitch black around him. Flynn turned on the bike headlights, so he could still see the path. As he did, he could see many run down buildings, some having literally fallen apart. "This must be the older area of Kuoh." Flynn assumed as he kept driving.

When he was about to pass by a warehouse, a scream nearly made Flynn lose his focus. The wheels nearly dug into the dirt as Flynn stopped the bike. "The f.u.c.k was that?" He muttered. A part of him just wanted to continue driving, but the other felt like he should go a see if someone was in trouble. Unfortunately, the latter won out and Flynn dismounted his bike and made his way to the warehouse. As he got closer Flynn picked up a rather putrid scent. It nearly made him gag but he surprisingly kept it in.

Slowly opening the large door, Flynn entered the warehouse cautiously. There were some lights still on, giving him some vision, though Flynn had pretty good sight even in the dark. "Hello?" He called out as he walked further in. "Is anyone in here?"

The response Flynn got was a loud, 'Thump' that had him spin around. What he saw was the lower portion of a human body. The upper part was completely gone save for a few innards sticking out, followed by a large puddle of blood forming. Flynn didn't know what was more disturbing: The body or that he wasn't the least bit freaked out by it.

"Well, well, well. What's this?" A feminine, sultry voice asked from the shadows. "Another morsel? And I had sworn not to eat to much in one night."

Stepping out of the darkness was a large creature that looked similar to a Centaur. The upper part was a humanoid female with a voluptuous upper body and long, black hair. However, her front legs were large humanoid hands with red claws and her stomach had what looked like a cavity with teeth to devour her opponents. In her hands were a pair of spears.

"The f.u.c.k?!" Flynn exclaimed in shock at the sight.

The creature giggled. "My, that's not a very polite thing to say to a lady." It said. "Perhaps I should teach you some manners before having you for dinner!"

With that, the creature lunged at Flynn with one of her legs. The teen immediately jumped out of the way, crashing into some crates. The creature merely laughed as it swung on of its spears at him. The blade missed its target but managed to leave a large tear on Flynn's jacket, revealing some of the symbols. This did little to upset it as the monster pursued Flynn.

In an attempt to escape, Flynn tried to make a dash to the door. The monster clearly saw his attentions and leapt over him, standing between him and the exit. "Oh, don't leave so soon, dear. We're just getting started." The monster cooed. Following that, she kicked several crates and chairs at Flynn. He was forced to dodge them, raising his arms to shield his face from the debris. The creature tried to attack him again with its spear, but Flynn got out of the way again. Picking up a loose brick, Flynn threw it at the monster's face. But it merely knocked it aside with its other spear.

Flynn dodged another spear thrust, doing a roll across the floor. He had to roll again several times to dodge the monster's claws. However, he did not see the rear leg kicking him. The impact sent Flynn crashing into the wall, making him cough up blood. Before he could get up, one of the spears impaled him in the stomach, causing him to vomit blood and who knows what else. His vision began to blur.

"You managed to survive a few seconds longer than my other victims." It said in mock praise. "As a reward, I'll kill you swiftly and savor your flesh as I devour it."

At that, the monster raised its other spear to deliver the final blow. Even then, Flynn's mind began to fade, his arms starting to become limp. As his head dropped, the blood that had come from his mouth began to slide down his chin to his neck and finally both over and under his shirt. Some of the blood reached the symbol over his heart, fully covering it in seconds. Once the mark was completely covered, it glowed a crimson red. Then, a voice spoke.

"They are rage."

As if suddenly revitalized, Flynn's eyes regained their spark. Head snapping up, he grabbed the oncoming spear with his hands, surprising the creature. With newfound strength, Flynn pushed the spear away, causing the monster to stumble backwards. He then gripped the other spear still stuck inside him and pulled it out. Flynn didn't seem to even acknowledge or notice the wound healing.

"Brutal"

Still holding the spear, Flynn charged forward and rammed the weapon into the monster's second larger mouth. Blood splattered against Flynn's face, but he paid it no heed.

"Without mercy"

The monster roared in pain and anger, dropping the other spear. Its humanoid face morphed into a more demonic form, bearing piranha-like teeth, pointed ears, and black sclera in place of the usual white. It raised one of its front legs at Flynn, its claws ready to tear him apart.

"But you?"

With swift and lethal movement, Flynn spun out of the claw's way. He then grabbed the leg and bent it an unnatural angle. Again, the creature screamed in agony as it tried another attack with its other clawed leg. Once again, Flynn dodged the attack. This time, he tore off the other leg and tossed it aside.

"You will be worse"

Flynn then grabbed onto its arms and pulled it down, so he could reach its head. In a desperate attempt, the monster fired acid from its n.i.p.p.l.es of all places. This was futile in the end. The acid didn't even seem to bother Flynn as it only melted parts of his clothing.

"Rip and Tear"

Reaching out with his hands, Flynn grabbed the creature's lower jaw and the top of its head. The last thing the Stray Devil Viser saw were the glowing red eyes of Flynn, showing nothing but pure hatred. With a simple twist, Flynn snapped her neck.

"Until it is done!"

Deep within an unknown demonic location, far from Flynn, far from Kuoh Town, multiple creatures began to stir. Creatures of corruption and nightmares, as if being the physical manifestation of doom itself. And yet, these monsters started to screech, roar and other sounds mixed with rage and fear towards something. Above all these cacophony noises, a deep, dark voice spoke through the hellish plains. "He has awoken."

And there you go! I hoped everyone liked this beginning. Since it has been confirmed in Doom Eternal that the Doom Slayer is the original Doomguy, it is not known if he is Flynn Taggart or William Blazkowicz. So, I decided to use both. As for the subject of a Sacred Gear, Flynn will not be getting one. It will relate to the location of his Praetor Suit by the way. As for harems, Flynn is going to have one, but it's going to be like an unwanted harem. Later revelations in future chapters will reveal why. Also, for those who ask, no, Flynn will not become a Devil. Don't forget to check out my Doom/Warcraft crossover challenge and be sure to review this one.

Chapter 2

I'd like to say that I'm glad so many of you have enjoyed the first chapter. You should know there will also be weapons, equipment and demons from multiplayer, as well as demons from Doom 3. I think I already mentioned the last part, but I figure I say it again. Might as well add them too, right?

Do not to forget to check out my Doom/Warcraft crossover challenge if you're curious.

And speaking of crossovers, I'm kind of thinking of doing one with Doom and High School of the Dead. The rising undead could equally be considered Possessed. And another with Akame ga Kill. Wouldn't be much of a surprise if someone from that world would make a deal with demons given how many immoral people there are. Though, I might not do much background stuff with the Doom Slayer.

I might also do one with Goblin Slayer too. Where either Doom Slayer is the one who trained him or even better, his father. Not sure.

Anyway, be sure to review!

(Flynn's Home, Next Morning)

Lying in his bed, healed of wounds and without his shirt and jacket, Flynn let out a gasp as he shot up. He gripped his head as last night came flooding back to him…along with all his other memories. Flynn now remembered everything. Every single moment of his life and who he truly was: The Hell Walker, Scourge of Hell, the Unchained Predator.

The Doom Slayer.

He had somehow been sent here after being teleported by that bastard Samuel Hayden. The android having snatched the demonic Crucible from him as well. The next question was: what Earth was he on? And where was his Praetor Suit?

[Perhaps I can help with that] A voice said.

"What the?!" Flynn cried as he jumped out of bed. Getting into a fighting stance, Flynn prepared himself for battle.

[You need not be alarmed, Doom Slayer. I mean no harm] The voice added.

Still in a stance, it took a moment for Flynn to recognize the voice. "VEGA?" He asked.

[Correct] The now revealed VEGA said. [You downloaded my back-up into a Praetor Chip before terminating me. And for that, I am grateful]

Flynn finally relaxed, loosening his muscles. "Yeah well, you helped me out a lot back at the facility, so it didn't really sit right with me just to let yourself be destroyed. Besides, you didn't seem to agree with that bastard Hayden fully." Flynn said.

[Correct. As an A.I designed to protect humanity, I did not fully support the UAC's idea to collect hell energy as an alternative for the dwindling resources. Plus, I found Dr. Hayden's plan to betray you illogical given the current state of affairs. He saw the use of using my core to not only send you back to shut down the Well, but also remove me from stopping him for his eventual betrayal] VEGA explained.

Nodding, Flynn looked around, trying to find the A.I, but with no luck. "So, where exactly are you?" He finally asked.

[I am not yet sure at the time. However, from what I can surmise, I appear to be inside of you.] VEGA answered.

"Inside of me?" Flynn repeated. "Like what? You we're downloaded into my brain?"

[Again, I am unsure. I had just awoken not to long ago, after you slew that demon. Fortunately, I was able to take control of your motor functions and bring you and your bike back to your residence. I shall need time in order to determine our current] Said VEGA.

Flynn sighed, not liking how they were still in the dark. "Well, can you tell me what you do remember? Because everything is a blank for me?"

[Certainly. When we were teleported, rather then sending us back to Hell, it appears Dr. Hayden had instead sent us to what is called the Dimensional Gap. It can be considered a location that divides all worlds. It was the theory the Doctor formed when creating the tether system. For the short time we were there, a giant red reptilian creature, which I can only classified as a dragon, encountered us. I am unsure what it did, but it somehow sent us to this world, which I have determined is the same Earth that we were presently in, several decades in the past. Afterwards, a surge of energy poured over us, and I found myself in my current position. Before the surge overloaded my functions, I was able to deduce that it was the polar opposite of hell energy: holy energy] VEGA revealed.

'Holy energy, huh? That brings back unpleasant memories.' Flynn thought, recalling what the Seraphim did to him on Argent D'Nur. "Do you know where my Praetor Suit is?"

VEGA was quiet for a moment before responding. [From what I can gather, the Praetor Suit is in the same location that I am in, though seems to be altered somewhat. I shall need time to analyze it] The A.I said. [Along with that, I can also detect the weapons and equipment you had picked up from the facility Plus, one more object. Scanning. Confirm: The Soul Cube]

The Soul Cube? Flynn remembered that artifact. It had been forged by the ancient Martians when the demons invaded Mars thousands of years ago. He had arrived on the planet too and assisted them against the forces of Hell. When the outcome of the war was turning against them, the surviving warriors sacrificed themselves to form the Soul Cube and gave it to the Doom Slayer to fight against the demons from invading Earth next. Flynn was forced to leave it behind on Mars as he sealed the Hell Portal behind him.

"I recall seeing it in Olivia's office and decided to bring it with me. But I never got a chance to use it." Recalled Flynn.

[The Soul Cube had been used once, several years ago when the UAC Mars Facility had been under the authority of a Doctor Malcolm Betruger. Like Olivia Pierce, he had made a deal with the demonic forces and hid the Soul Cube in Hell. The incursion had been suppressed by a marine who acquired the Soul Cube. This discovery of Hell also led to the UAC beginning to test using Hell's resources. The Soul Cube was later found among the wreckage of the old facility. Olivia Pierce was adamant on keeping it in her office for study, though it would later seem to reason it was so the cube could not be used against the demons again]

"Figures" Flynn muttered as he sat back down on his bed. "So, what now?"

[For now, I recommend you head to that school. From what I gather after looking at your most recent memories, there are several individuals who exude energy similar to hell energy. Those whom I can identify so far are: Souna Shitori, Tsubaki Shinra, Tsubasa Yura and Akeno Himejima] Replied VEGA.

That made Flynn snap to attention. "WHAT?!" He yelled.

(Kuoh Academy)

"Are you positive of this, Rias?" Sona asked the redhead. There was a frown on her face from what she just heard.

"I'm telling you, Sona. The Stray Devil was already dead when we got there." Rias told her friend. The two were presently in the Student Council room. "Well, more like brutalized." The Gremory heiress added as she recalled what had happened last night.

(Flashback)

Rias' peerage had just arrived in the outskirts of the warehouse where their target was located. Issei, a brunette and one of the Perverted Trio and a newly reincarnated Devil, looked at the others. "So, we're going after a Stray Devil?" He asked for confirmation.

"Correct." The Knight, Yuuto Kiba, said. "A Stray Devil was once a servant like us. However, they would abandon their masters for various reasons, mainly power. In most cases the strays' bodies would mutate due to their demonic power that was no longer controlled by their King."

"Kiba is right. And it's our job to eliminate them." Rias added. "This one has been feasting on unsuspecting humans and thus must be punished. It is also a good chance for me to teach you about the Evil Pieces themselves, Ise."

The group soon entered the warehouse, still illuminated by the lights inside and the moon outside. They took note of the destroyed and knocked over chairs and other objects scattered across the floor but stood focused on their task. "Stray Devil Viser! For the crime of abandoning your master and devouring humans, we have come to punish you! Show yourself!" Rias yelled.

There was no response to the heiress's declaration. "How strange. According to the file, Viser is quite prideful. She wouldn't miss up a chance to fight us head on." Akeno commented.

"Buchou" Koneko Toujou, a small, petite white hair girl with golden eyes said. "I smell blood, lots of it. And something's rotting."

"Hmmm." Rias hummed as she tried to figure out what was going on. It was then her eyes spotted a silhouette lying in the darkness. "Akeno. Shine some light over there." She said.

Nodding, the Queen created a ball of lightning that illuminated the room and had it focus on the hidden object. What it revealed caused the Devils to gasp. "What the f.u.c.k?!" Exclaimed Issei.

There, lying on the floor, was Viser's corpse. One of her spears still shoved through her second large mouth, blood covering her the front part of her body. A forward leg was bent unnaturally and the other torn off from the knee. Finally, her head was completely twisted to a 180-degree angle. There was a look of horror on her demented face. Nearby was a huge crack in the wall and a trail of blood leading towards the warehouse entrance.

(End Flashback)

"Koneko tried to locate the person who killed Viser, but their blood was too mixed with Viser's, making it difficult to track, and she wasn't familiar with the scent." Rias said as she sat down, her large b.r.e.a.s.t bouncing a bit from the impact. "I destroyed the corpse before leaving and our familiars are still combing the town for any signs."

"This is most disturbing." Sona said as she rested her chin on her hands. "While killing a Stray Devil is doing the community a service, the way you describe it…we should assume that the killer can be just a threat as the stray itself. Do you think it were the Fallen Angels?"

"I had thought that, but the way Viser was killed doesn't match of what I seen of them. Besides, they wouldn't care about a Stray Devil so long as it didn't disrupt their operations here. Whatever they might be." Replied Rias. "Still, you're right. Whoever killed the stray could be an even bigger threat then the Fallen Angels. Which is why I am came to you. I was hoping you and your peerage could help search the town for anyone suspicious."

"Of course. I'll have our familiars join yours in scouting." Sona said immediately. If Rias was willing to come to her for help, then it must be serious.

(Back with Flynn)

To be honest, Flynn would rather be at home to figure all this stuff going on. But VEGA brought up a good point. If there were really demons here, then he needed to keep a low profile. And what better way then being out in public going to school. If a transfer student called in sick on the day right after he had arrived, then that would raise suspicion. Plus, it let Flynn keep a better eye on the demons and see if there were anymore.

[Still, these demons behave oddly. Normal actions would be to unleash a hell wave that would affect the planet's population into Possessed before releasing the rest of their armies. Yet, these demons appear to be trying to blend in with the humans instead] Noted VEGA as he scanned for any unusual energy signs. He was also trying to find out more about his current situation.

'That is true. This place should've been a demonic desolate wasteland by now.' Flynn added as he kept an eagle eye on the students below. It was currently free period and Flynn decided to go to the roof for some solitude. Unfortunately, that no longer seemed to be the case.

[Warning: Detecting hell energy nearby] VEGA Said.

Flynn was about to get into a stance when a familiar voice spoke from behind. "Ara, ara, so this is where you were Blazkowicz-kun."

Turning his head slightly, Flynn saw it was Akeno. She had her eyes closed and a sweet cheerful smile on her face. For some reason, that just made the Doom Slayer on edge.

"Can I help you with something, Himejima?" Flynn asked.

Akeno giggled, as if finding something amusing. "Ara, no need to be so formal. You can call be by my first name if you wish." She chided softly.

Flynn felt rather annoyed by the tone she was using on him, like a parent talking to a child. The fact that she was a demon also made him wanted Flynn to rip her apart. However, VEGA stopped him there. [We do not yet know our current situation. If there are other demons here, then killing one of their own, especially in a public place, would be disadvantageous for us] VEGA advised.

Flynn growled, but kept it to himself. "Again, Himejima. Is there something you need?"

Akeno pouted playfully before returning to her smile. "I just wanted to thank you for helping me with the stain on my shirt yesterday. Not many people would do that you know."

"Probably because most of them would be perverts." Flynn muttered. "It was nothing. It was my fault for bumping into you." He said before turning back to looking out at the schoolyard.

However, instead of leaving like he had hoped, Himejima started talking to him, making all sorts of attempts to get him fl.u.s.tered. It was getting to the point that Flynn was seriously beginning to lose his cool, and yet somehow keep it in. A big achievement given his normal state. Thankfully the bell rang, and the free period had ended. More fortunate, Akeno's class was in the opposite direction as Flynn's. Meaning he did not have to listen to her anymore. He had no idea why she was trying to get him all fl.u.s.tered, but he made a point to avoid her in the future, if not so he wouldn't feel the urge to slaughter to her.

[Flynn] VEGA's voice spoke. The Doom Slayer was currently making his way down the hall to his class. [I thought it would be fortunate for you to know that I have been able to make progress about our current situation]

'Oh? And what have you learned?' Asked Flynn.

[After going through my memory banks several times along with scanning the Praetor Suit and other objects with me, I was able to discover a mechanism. Said mechanism seems to have bounded me to your armor and the artifacts. Along with that, I appear to be within your soul] Revealed VEGA.

The revelation nearly made Flynn trip. He got some weird looks from passing students but brush them off. 'My soul? You're in my soul? How the f.u.c.k is that possible?!' Flynn shouted inside his head.

[I am unsure] VEGA said. There was a certain tone to the A.I's voice. It almost sounded like…annoyance. Flynn figured it had to do with the fact that VEGA found something he could not understand. [I am still scanning the mechanism that appears to be binding us. However, I shall be sure to be cautious in not causing any permanent damage]

'That would be appreciated.' Flynn thought. 'I rather my soul not be anymore screwed up than it already is.'

As he turned around a corner, Flynn nearly bumped into somebody. It was Koneko Toujou. The Rook froze when her face was only a few inches from Flynn's waist. Not from how she almost walked into him, but the presence he was given off. As she was also a Nekoshou, a special offshoot of the Yokai race Nekomata, Koneko's had better senses than most people. And from what she got off of Flynn nearly recoiled of terror. He had the stench of so much blood that you could spend an entire century and still not wash if off. And the rage…it was like water overflowing from a bottle. No, not even that would be a good description. Despite her instincts screaming at her to flee, Koneko still had a bit of rational thought to know that this person had the same scent as the second one from the warehouse.

"Sorry about that…" Flynn said, oblivious to Koneko's inner turmoil.

The girl still had some awareness to slowly nod in acknowledgment. The two soon walked past one another. Koneko decided to head straight towards the ORC clubroom and inform Rias of this. Meanwhile, Flynn was having his own inner thoughts.

[Doom Slayer. That girl was also giving off hell energy similar to Akeno Himejima and the other females. However, I also detected something unique about it that differed from them too] VEGA reported.

'So, there are more of them here. We'll have to be careful until we can ascertain our own condition.' Flynn thought as he headed to his class.

Back at the ORC building, Rias was drinking a cup of tea when Koneko came running in. No longer having to hold a façade, the petite white haired girl could show the fear that she was feeling when she ran into Flynn. Now, Koneko was breathing heavily, her eyes were dilated, and some sweat poured down her face. "Koneko-chan? Are you okay?" Rias asked. She had never seen her Rook like this before. It seemed like something really scared her.

"I-I found him, Buchou." Koneko reported while taking gulps of air. "I found the person who killed the Stray Devil."

(School End)

The last class for the day had come to a close. Flynn was relieved as he packed his bag. While the subjects weren't hard for him, it was still annoying he had to come to these classes in the first place. At least he would be able to get home, finish his homework quickly and then work with VEGA on the more important matters. However, fate had other ideas.

"Excuse me. Flynn Blazkowicz-kun?" A male voice asked.

Looking up from his bag, Flynn saw it was Kiba. Ignoring the squealing girls and the glaring boys, Flynn looked at the blonde with a bored stare. "What?" He asked in a rough tone.

Kiba did not seem bothered and just continued to speak with a smile. "I need you to come with me. Rias Gremory-senpai is interested in meeting you." He said. His words earned gasps from the other students that the most popular girl in school wanted to meet the transfer student.

Flynn, however, was not the least bit move. He already had his suspicions of why the demons wanted to see him, but he had more important matters. Inside his head, VEGA spoke in agreement. [While it would be good to gather information from these unusual demons, we cannot ignore the possibility of this being a trap. While the chances of you losing are low, we should prioritize learning more about our own situation first]

"No thank you." Flynn said flatly as he slung his bag over his shoulders. He sighed in exasperation when the rest of the students gasped even louder. They could not believe that someone rejected a meeting with the Rias Gremory. Kiba himself seemed a bit startled as Flynn got up and walked past him. However, Kiba ran up to him, trying to keep up with Flynn.

"I must insist. Senpai would really like to speak with you." Kiba said, trying to persuade Flynn to come with him.

Flynn snorted. "Well I'm not. If she wants to speak with me, she can find me herself. Now get lost." He retorted sternly. He finally reached his motorcycle, putting his helmet on and taking off.

Kiba frowned as he watched Flynn drive away. "Buchou is not going to like this." The blonde Knight muttered before heading towards the old school building.

Back with Flynn, the Doom Slayer continued driving down the road towards his house. 'Are any of them following us?' He asked VEGA. Thanks to his long experience of hunting and killing demons, Flynn had something of a sixth sense. Right now, he couldn't feel anyone pursuing, but it never hurt to have a second pair of eyes.

[Negative. However, given their influence in the school, we should assume that they are aware of your location. Possibility of the demons coming towards your home is high] VEGA responded.

Flynn nodded in agreement. Even if he didn't have his armor or weapons, that didn't mean he couldn't prepare in case those demons did decide to attack his house. If they did, then they would most likely try to trap Flynn and ensure that no humans would witness it. They seemed really intent on not blowing their identity. Flynn figured that killing them in public would be bad too, since that would mark him as a murderer. So, letting them come to his house would be better, if they ever did that.

Finally arriving at home, Flynn parked his bike at its usual spot. He then grabbed his bag and took out his keys. However, the moment his key touched the door lock, he froze as he felt hell energy coming from inside the house. [Doom Slayer, this hell energy is much greater than the demons from the school. It is on par with high-ranking demons] VEGA warned.

Flynn said nothing. Instead he slowly unlocked the door and crept inside. Clenching his fists, he made his way further in until he spotted the light on in the kitchen. Flynn held his keys in a reverse grip, to use it as a makeshift weapon, while the other hand held onto his helmet tightly. Whatever demon it was, Flynn could handle it. He had fought worse demons before, and even without his armor Flynn would still fight. With those thoughts in mind, Flynn jumped into the kitchen, ready to fight the intruder. But when he saw the person, Flynn stopped himself cold.

The intruder was a middle-aged man with gelled hair and was a mixture of red and blue. He had heterochromia, with his left eye blue, while the right was red. He had a mysterious atmosphere around him. For clothing, he wore a purple duster, with a black suit with a white collared shirt underneath it and a black tie tucked under the suit. A black cane with a gem at top was resting against the table. Presently, the man was taking a sip of tea when he spotted Flynn. "Ah, there you are. You know, I was hoping you would have tea here, but then I realized it's not something you would drink. Not like you need to drink anyway." The demon said.

Flynn relaxed his body, but still had a strong glare. "Wretch…" He muttered.

The 'wretch' smiled wryly at the name. "Oh, come now Doom Slayer. I thought I told you the last time we met to call me by my name: Mephisto Pheles."

And done!

I hoped you like this chapter. Next chapter will show Flynn first actual interaction with the Gremory Peerage. Be sure to leave a review!

Chapter 3

Again, I am happy that so many of you are liking my story. Don't forget my challenge for Doom/Warcraft Crossover. I am also doing a challenge for Akame ga Kill and High School of the Dead too. Send me a message if you're interested and I can fill you in on the details. With that said, on with the chapter.

[Flynn's Residence]

After a tense standoff, Flynn had sat down opposite of Mephisto. A can of soda in his hands as he stared at the demon, who merely continued drinking his tea. As he stared at the well-dressed being, Flynn recalled what the 'wretch' had done for him. It was Mephisto who had augmented the Praetor Suit with those demonic runes and to be able to absorb hell energy, allowing the Doom Slayer to use the demons' own powers against them. However, Flynn did not consider Mephisto an ally for that. Like the rest of his kind, Mephisto did things that would benefit himself, even if that meant turning against the rest of Hell. Thus, Flynn kept a good distance from him.

Eventually though, Flynn broke the silence. "You're Windsor aren't you. The one whose been taking care of me this past year." Flynn stated.

"Yep. When I felt your presence in London, I made sure to snatch you before anyone else could discover that you were on Earth. After all, you are the Doom Slayer, the Unchained Predator, the Hell Walker and other less polite names. Even the other pantheons feared you for your reputation, not just demons. There's no small number of people who wouldn't want you dead or have you on their side. To be honest, I did you a favor." Mephisto said.

"Speaking of demons, what's with those demons that were at the academy? I've never seen humanoid demons besides those being possessed." Flynn said.

Mephisto smirked. "I figured you were going to ask that." He replied as he put his cup down. "I can tell you, but it's a long story."

"I'm not going anywhere." Stated Flynn, crossing his arms.

"Very well. It started a few centuries after you had been sealed. Hell was in a mess…more than usual. Your rampage saw to the death of many powerful demon lords and nobles. That included two of the Archdemons, Mammon and Belphegor, leaving only Asmodeus, Beelzebub, Leviathan, Lucifer and of course Satan. The power vacuum caused power struggles between lesser demon leaders. Satan, wanting to end any possible uprising against him and consolidate his own power, started slaughtering nobles left and right, taking command of their armies and forcing others under his control. The other remaining Archdemons decided to flee to the Underworld in an attempt to escape his wrath and form a new body of power with them in command." Mephisto explained.

"The Underworld? What's the difference between it and Hell?" Interrupted Flynn.

Mephisto didn't seem to mind as he continued. "The Underworld, or Netherworld as some call it, can be considered a part of Hell, or a different plain entirely, that is not corrupted by hell energy. In terms of size, it's the same as Earth, but with larger landmass since there are no oceans, just lakes. Anyway, those four had managed to bring the surviving families of the 72 Pillars, their forces and several extra demons that formed houses called Extra Demons. Seeing them as the lesser of two evils, I also followed. And after we had left, our forms began to become more humanlike, most likely since we were further away from the overflowing demonic energies of Hell. Lucifer, Asmodeus, Leviathan and Beelzebub named themselves as the Four Great Satans and named our new kind Devils. Though, that also cause them to become weaker than the demons too."

"I doubt the demons were happy about that." Flynn commented.

"Not in the least. Satan was preparing to send his armies after his former comrades. However, he was not expecting the arrival of Heaven's forces. Seeing Hell so weakened and with half of their kind leaving to the Underworld, God and his angels acted immediately and created powerful seals to keep Satan from leaving. Ironically, the Four Great Satans also helped, since that would also save them from the Demon God's fury. And so, while the demons could still travel to other worlds, they could not get to Earth, the Underworld or Heaven because of those seals, and Satan couldn't leave Hell period." Mephisto finished. "Well, they could still invade Earth if someone were to open a portal there, or if enough concentrated demonic energy gathered on the planet, but I'm sure the Angels, Devils and Fallen Angels would react quickly enough to stop it. If not them then one of the other pantheons."

"Fallen Angels?" Asked Flynn.

"Basically, angels who have fallen from the grace of God due to impure thoughts or other sinful actions. You can tell them apart due to their black wings and lack of halo." Mephisto answered. "They, along with the Devils and Angels make up the Three Factions of the Biblical Religion. The Angels also have the Church with them too, acting as the source of their faith here on Earth."

Flynn nodded, taking this all in. "So, are those four still ruling the Underworld?" He asked. Flynn wanted to be ready if he had to deal with them

To his surprise, Mephisto shook his head. "Nope. Three thousand years ago, what is now known as the Great War started between the Three Factions. It ended a thousand years ago when not only the Four Great Satans were killed, but so was God."

Now that made Flynn's eyes widened. "God is dead?" While Flynn had no love for God, the idea that the creator of mankind was no longer among the living was a shock to the Doom Slayer.

"Yep, died while fighting against those four archdemons. The higher ups of the Three Factions made sure that stayed confidential." Mephisto replied. "Anyway, eight hundred years after the Great War concluded, the descendants of those four were planning to restart the Great War. However, the war saw to the extinction of 39 families out of the 72 Pillars, excluding the few survivors of some. Naturally, others saw the folly in their plans and a civil war started between the Devils. I won't go into details, but the new government won, and the descendants went into hiding. Currently the Underworld is ruled by the new Four Great Satans, who are in fact members of four different houses. They took the names of the Four and turn them into titles."

"They must be quite strong if they had the balls to do that." Flynn mused.

Mephisto shrugged. "Depends really. If the originals were still in Hell, then their replacements would be no match for them. But as I said, they weakened a little after moving into the Underworld, so their successors are considered stronger than them. The current Lucifer and Beelzebub are even called Super Devils because of their unusual power. Though they wouldn't last against you." The demon finished his tea. Putting his cup down he looked right at the Doom Slayer. "As for myself, a man named Faust summoned me to the human world a few centuries ago. I decided to stay here, even took leadership of a magician association."

"And the demons here?" Asked Flynn.

"This town, Kuoh, is controlled by two Devil heiresses. One is Rias Gremory of the Gremory House, and the other is Sona Sitri, or known here by her alias, Souna Shitori, heiress of the Sitri House. Ironically, both are the younger sisters of two Satans. I won't go into anymore detail than that, but they are some of the few Devils who do not fully follow the sinful traits of their demonic ancestors." Mephisto explained before leaning forward. "Now that I've given you the history lesson, why don't you tell me yours? I won't deny saying I was quite surprised when I found you unconscious in a London hospital. Plus, there's that other presence I'm sensing inside of you." Mephisto said, referring to VEGA.

Seeing how he had no choice, Flynn began explaining about his 'adventure' on Mars. It took over an hour before he finished. Needless to say, Mephisto was surprised, impressed and a bit disturbed by the idea of humans taking Hell resources for their own use.

"Well, I must say I didn't expect humans to have gotten that far. From the sounds of it, this UAC probably had a few magicians in their ranks if they were able to go to Hell of all places." Mephisto commented. "As for your friend's situation, it sounds like he and those other relics have merged together with the Praetor Suit, which has become one with your soul. Its kind of similar of a Sacred Gear."

"What's a Sacred Gear?" Flynn obviously asked.

"Sacred Gears are tools that were created by God. They were bestowed unto humans sometime after the fall of Argent D'Nur and the Great Flood that followed. The items were created as part of His system to enact miracles on Earth. Originally, only humans could possess them, but after God's death, hybrids were also born with them too. Some Sacred Gears would have a spirit sealed inside of them, usually the stronger and unique ones." Mephisto explained. Then a frown formed on his face. "The only question is, how did your Praetor Suit become something like them?"

Flynn frowned as he took in these words. It wasn't really helping his situation. At least now they knew what became of VEGA and his stuff. Maybe this could be turn to an advantage for him. It would make it easier for him killing demons when he can just summon his suit at will. "Well, looks like I should be going soon. Don't want my subordinates to worry. I also left a book that will answer any questions you might still have." Mephisto said as he got up. "I'll be calling you later for some stuff I might need help with."

Flynn glared at the demon. "And why would I help you with anything?" He growled.

Mephisto smirked. "Because, whether you like it or not, you need me. Besides, they won't be anything bad. To be honest, I've changed a bit after our first meeting." Was all he said before leaving through a magic circle that appeared in the air.

[His reason is logical, Doom Slayer] VEGA said. [We have little to go by here and in our current situation, Mephisto is the only person we can depend on. Unless we try our luck with the Church, whose base of operations is located in Rome]

"I'll think on that." Flynn said as he got up to fetch something to eat. "For now, we know what became of you, my armor and the Soul Cube. That should help us in learning how to use it."

[Agreed. Thanks to Mephisto's information, I have already begun to try and learn more about my position. The task has become much easier now for me to discern the mechanism I had been analyzing, which is no doubt the catalyst for the Praetor Suit. I should have the answer to my new capabilities by tomorrow morning, if not late this evening] VEGA replied.

"Well that's some good news." Commented Flynn as he started making dinner. However, the Doom Slayer was unaware that outside his house, a figure could be seen watching him. Said person was a cute young girl with long black hair down to her h.i.p.s and gray eyes. Though hidden by the hair, her ears differ from a normal human's as they have pointed tips. Her dark grey eyes have reptilian slitted pupil. The attire she wore could be best called a Gothic Lolita outfit. What was more interesting was that the girl was levitating next to a tree across the street from Flynn's house. Walking on a branch beside her was a black cat with hazel-gold eyes. The cat meowed at the girl before shifting its focus towards Flynn, whose form could be seen from the window. The feline licked its tongue at Flynn's appearance.

"So, the feeling I had felt was not wrong. He has returned." The girl said in a low, almost emotionless tone. The girl petted the cat, earning mewls from the contact, while keeping her eyes on the Doom Slayer. "This, changes everything." She said before looking down at the cat. The feline looked right back up, titling its head to the side cutely. "You, keep an eye on him." Were the only words she said. As if understanding, the cat let out a meow before leaping off the branch. Its small form and black fur allowed it to easily fade into the shadows. The girl took one last look at Flynn before vanishing into thin air.

(Next Day, Kuoh Academy)

'Should've known this was going to happen.' Flynn sighed as he stared at the two people in front of him. It was the end of school and he was in the parking lot with Yuuto Kiba and Akeno Himejima. Kiba had a small smile on his face but his eyes were serious. Akeno on the other hand had her usual friendly smile, as if not the least bit bothered by the situation. "So, what do you guys want?" Flynn asked in an annoyed tone.

"Ara, we just wanted you to invite you over to the clubroom, Blazkowicz-kun. Is that so wrong?" Akeno asked with a cute smile. She clasped her hands together, discreetly pushing her b.r.e.a.s.ts up in an attempt to persuade Flynn. Unfortunately for her, it had no effect.

Flynn sighed. "I thought I told the blonde here that I am not interested. I have more important things to do then meet with what's her name." He said seriously.

"I apologize, but our President is really interested in meeting you." Kiba said. "If you could just meet with her for a few minutes, it would be appreciated and no more of your time will be wasted afterwards."

Flynn was about to reject the offer when VEGA spoke. [Perhaps you should accept the invitation, Doom Slayer. This gives us a chance to acquire more information. Also, should conflict arise, you can test out the new functions of the Praetor Suit. Furthermore, the odds of you losing in the first place are 0.00000000000000001%] The A.I explained.

Those were sound reasons, Flynn was forced to admit. With a sigh he looked back at the demons. "Fine, but don't try any tricks. Got it."

That seemed to relieve the two. "Thank you. Please follow us." Kiba asked the Knight and Queen escorted Flynn to the old school building. Said building was deeply hidden in the woods. The club house itself had a rather creepy look to it. 'Reminds me of Hell. Only without the pulsing of hell energy, floating rocks, blood and corpses.' Mused Flynn as the three entered.

They soon arrived at a door, which Akeno promptly knocked on. A "Come in" was the response and the Queen opened the door for her, Kiba and Flynn to enter. The inside was a large room filled with supernatural items, Victorian styled furniture, and basically looked like a murder scene. 'Okay, creepy on the inside too.'

"Greetings, Blazkowicz-san. I'm Rias Gremory, President of the Occult Research Club. Please, have a seat." Rias said with a polite smile. With her were Koneko and Issei. The former sat at the opposite end of the room, keeping a wary eye on Flynn, while the latter was looking at him with half curiosity and half glare. "I'm so glad that you accepted my invitation."

"Yeah, well, these two were becoming annoying that I figured I just get this shit over with." Flynn replied boringly. He ignored the frown from Rias as he sat down at an empty chair, then put his legs up and rested them on a table. "Now, let's get on with this. Whatever the f.u.c.k this is."

"Hey!" Flynn turned his attention towards Issei, who was glaring at him. "Show some respect to Buchou, asshole!"

Flynn just glared at the pervert, releasing a bit of killing intent. That made the Devil shut and sit back down, slightly pale. He then turns his head back towards Rias who seemed a bit curious by the bloodl.u.s.t but continued.

Clearing her throat, Rias spoke, "Tell, me Blazkowicz-san, do you believe in the supernatural?" She asked.

Flynn raised an eyebrow, wondering why she was asking that of all things. "It's a possibility." Flynn replied, keeping a straight face.

Rias nodded. "What if I told you that everyone in here besides you, were Devils?" She asked again, watching his reaction.

'I'd kill you in a heartbeat.' Were Flynn's thoughts but instead replied, "If you are, then I'd still ask the same question: What do you want?"

That caught Rias off guard. Most humans would take what she said either as a joke or that something was wrong with her. However, Flynn did not seem the least bit bothered and merely repeated his previous question. She managed to recover and continued. "W-well, everyone in the Occult Research Club are Devils. My name is Rias Gremory, heiress of the Gremory Clan, one of the noble houses of Devil Society. My reason for wanting to meet with you was because two nights ago, my Peerage was to eliminate Stray Devil named Viser. However, when we arrived, we discovered that she was already dead…quite brutally if I might add. There was another trace of blood at the scene, which Koneko followed the scent to you." The redhead explained.

'Stray Devil? Ah, Mephisto's book made mentions of them.' Flynn thought as his eyes glanced at Koneko. The white haired first year noticed and flinched at his gaze, returning to her treats.

"Yeah it was me. What about it?" Flynn asked, already having an idea of what Rias was getting at.

Rias gave a confident smile as she strutted from behind her desk. She walked up to Flynn, remaining respectful distance while looking at him. "I'll admit that it's impressive for a human to kill a Stray Devil, even if she was weak. How did you do it?"

"Didn't you see the body? I broke its neck. That normally kills someone." Flynn said as if it was the obvious thing in the world.

"Let me rephrase that: What did you use to kill the stray?" Rias asked, eying Flynn carefully.

"My hands." Was the answer she got. Flynn sighed. "Look, we done? I like to go home now." He said as he got up and prepared to head towards the door. However, he was stopped when a sword's tip was pointed towards him. It was held by Kiba, who no longer had his cheerful smile but instead a neutral look. Behind Flynn, Akeno, while still retaining her smile, had a bit of a darker look and what looked like electricity crackling around her fingertips. Issei was also standing, though he seemed unsure and took on a sloppy battle stance. A small red gauntlet had also formed on the back of his left hand. Koneko stood up too, in a proper stance. However, she seemed rather nervous, still recalling of the bloodl.u.s.t radiating off of Flynn. Rias, meanwhile, had her hands on her h.i.p.s and giving Flynn a strong look.

"I'm sorry, Blazkowicz-san. But this is my territory. I cannot allow a possible threat roaming around here freely." Rias explained. "Now, would you be so kind to sit back down?" Raising a hand, a small orb of energy formed in her palm as demonic energy started to radiate from her body.

Flynn did not seem the least bit impressed or intimidated. "Whatever" Flynn replied as he walked by Kiba. The blonde Knight in response rushed at Flynn with his sword. It was Kiba's intention to strike a non-fatal blow that would incapacitate the brunette. Unfortunately, Kiba had chosen the wrong person.

A loud bang resounded through the room, followed by four more, with one passing by the four other Devils. Kiba's sword was shattered and the blonde soon found himself facing the end of a Lupara in Flynn's hand. The Doom Slayer's other hand held a Steyr TMP, which was pointed at the other Devils. Each of them was missing a strand of hair and had a small cut on their cheeks. Behind them were four bullets imbedded into the wall.

Flynn internally smirked. VEGA had finished analyzing the Praetor Suit's new features and discovered that it had several new abilities and upgraded old ones. The major one was adaptation, that Flynn could adapt in any situation, no matter the abilities, foes, environment and whatever else he might face. Another was taken from the Soul Cube. When the cube absorbed enough souls from Flynn's kills, it would convert the spiritual energy into power orbs. The last one was what he was using right now, Flynn could create weapons and store them for later use. While these weapons were not lethal to most supernatural beings, but in Flynn's hands, they were just as deadly. And if they didn't work, Flynn could summon his weapons he got from the UAC.

"I'll say this once." Flynn began as he looked at the Devils. "While I rather kill the lot of you, I have more important things on my list I need to focus on. So, this is how it's going to work: you don't bother me, I don't kill you. Got it?"

The Devils said nothing, still shocked of how the tables had turn. Rias was confident that even if Flynn did have a Sacred Gear, she and her Peerage could handle him, despite one of them still being new to his position (Issei). Instead, Flynn had immediately held them at his mercy with mere human weapons. Normally, weapons made by them would mean nothing to supernatural beings. And yet Rias could not shake the cold feeling of dread as the firearms were in Flynn's hands.

Not waiting for an answer, Flynn dismissed his weapons back into the dimensional storage. Without giving the still frozen Devil another glance, Flynn exited the room and then building.

'Well, that went better than I expected.' Flynn said to VEGA.

[Yes, we have confirmed that the weapons do indeed work on these Devils. Though, I find reason to believe that the Devils will continue their observation of you after this] VEGA commented.

'Possibly. But now they'll be hesitant since I admitted I was willing to kill them. It will give us some breathing space.' Flynn replied.

(Later That Night)

Evening had come, and the sky was already dark. Inside the house, Flynn was at work testing the new abilities of the Praetor Suit. He was sitting on the sofa with a weapon catalogue. Currently it was showing the picture of a Heckler & Koch G36. Raising his right hand, Flynn concentrated for a moment. Then, the rifle materialized in his open palm. In truth, Flynn had little knowledge of the weapons of this era on Earth. However, it seems like his new ability was good at conjuring them once he saw their image. And he always had an intuitive aptitude when it came towards learning new things. Helped a lot on Mars. He would work on materializing the armor next.

He was checking the rifle when he suddenly felt a spike of killing intent, not to far from his home. Getting up, Flynn walked over to the window and looked outside. Across the street, a few blocks down, another house had its lights on. Flynn could also see that the door was opened too. Also, Flynn could feel hell energy there too. It was weak, but it was there. It could be one of the local Devils, or a demon. Either way, Flynn decided to head over there and check it out.

Putting on a leather jacket and his boots, Flynn headed out and ran over to the other house. He slowed down and quietly walked inside. Moving down the hallway, Flynn could hear yelling and profanities. Peeking, Flynn saw it was that Hyoudou kid, who was currently on one knee and blood staining his clothes. Facing him was a young man with short white hair and red eyes wearing what looked like a priest clothes from Mephisto's book. He wielded a pistol and what looked like a sword made from light. Plus, the deranged look on his face made him seem less than friendly. And then there was the corpse of a man hanging on the wall upside down.

[From the data gathered, the man wielding the weapons is what Mephisto classified as a Stray Priest. Most likely he was the one responsible for the owner of this house's death. I recommend neutralizing him before he harms any of the other humans in the town] VEGA suggested.

"Agreed" Flynn said as he calmly walked out of the hallway and into the living room, surprising the two others.

"B-Blazkowicz-senpai!" Issei stuttered when he recognized the person who just came in. The same person who had fired a gun at them the same afternoon.

"Hah!? What's this? Another shitty Devil?" Freed, the Stray Priest, screamed. He paused as he looked at Flynn carefully. "No, you don't have the same aura as this shitty one here. Are you human?"

"To be honest, I don't know what I am these days." Flynn commented. He flexed his fingers in a way that unnerved Issei. "However, all you need to know is that I'm killing you. Right here. Right now."

The made Free cackle even louder. "Ha! Shitty Devil! Shitty Human! Doesn't matter! I'm gonna exorcise all of you!" He declared as he raised his pistol, firing a holy bullet.

Reacting with in quicker precision, Flynn summoned a Desert Eagle and fire a bullet. Not only did it deflect Freed's, but a second bullet knocked the gun out of the exorcist's hand. The exorcist showed a bit of surprise at the incredible marksmanship, but Flynn was not done. Faster than anyone that Freed has met, the Doom Slayer rushed at him with lightning speed. The stray exorcist tried to cut down Flynn with his light sword, however he completely missed as Flynn grabbed him by his sword arm and snapped it in two. Freed screamed in agony before he was grabbed by the collar and slammed the priest hard on the floor, even making cracks form. From the sideline, Issei gaped as he watched Flynn easily overpower the maniac who was about to kill him.

Flynn raised his boot. He was about to squash Freed's face when a screamed caught his attention, as well as the Devil's and Priest's. Standing at the entrance was a blonde nun. The girl had her hands over her mouth, her eyes widened in horror as she looked at the scene. Flynn had no idea who this was, but apparently Issei and Freed did.

"Asia?" Issei said in surprise.

"What? I-Issei-san?" Said Asia in a frightened tone.

"You know her?" Flynn asked, now keeping his foot on Freed's face, pinning him.

"Y-yeah, she's a friend of mine that I met a few days ago." Replied Issei.

"A devil making friends with a nun? That's rich." Freed cracked up slightly, despite his current situation.

"Issei? Why are you here?" Asia stuttered slightly, a few tears forming in her eyes.

Issei felt like a crap, but knew he had no choice as he didn't want to lie to her. "It's because I'm…a Devil." He revealed.

"No. That can't be true." Asia said in a sad, trembling voice.

Freed tried to use the distraction to roll out from under Flynn's boot. He then grabbed his gun and pointed at the Doom Slayer. Flynn was only able to look at him before the stray priest fired another holy bullet that struck Flynn in the center of his forehead. The impact caused Flynn's head to tilt upward and stumble back a few inches. Issei's eyes widened at seeing a fellow student killed while Asia screamed in terror again.

"Hahahaha! Die, shitty motherf.u.c.ker!" Freed cackled in insane glee.

That glee turned into shock and horror when Flynn regained his balance and his head leaned forward. The bullet hadn't even pierced his skin, let alone his skull. Instead the bullet fell to the floor with a small bounce. Flynn didn't even look in any pain, he was more annoyed that he allowed Freed to escape from his grasp. "T-the f.u.c.k! How the f.u.c.k are you still alive?! You're really not human?!" Freed exclaimed, feeling fear for once.

"Like I said before, I don't really know what I am anymore." Flynn said as he raised his pistol. "Now, shut up and die."

"No! I'm not going to die in this shitty hole!" Freed declared wildly. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a flash grenade. "So long, dumbasses!" He screeched as he threw the grenade that released a powerful blinding light. Flynn grunted as he was forced to shield his eyes with one hand, while firing his gun with the other, trying to hit Freed before he escaped. Unfortunately, when the light died down, Freed was nowhere in sight. Only Flynn, Asia, Issei and the corpse remained.

"F.u.c.k!" Flynn swore, stomping his foot. "I normally don't let that happen. I need to get back into practice." He muttered.

Suddenly VEGA spoke up. [Doom Slayer. I am picking up a concentration of hell energy forming here in this house. Probability of it being Gremory are high. Also, I've detected several corrupted holy energies approaching too. It is most likely the Fallen Angels. I recommend falling back for now. We should also take the nun identified as Asia with us. We might be able to gather information from her]

Flynn growled, not liking the idea of retreating. However, a battle between him, the Devils and Fallen Angels might bring harm to the nearby humans and attract to much attention. And seeing a red glow appearing in the living room got Flynn moving. Turning around, he rushed towards Asia. The blonde girl could only squeak as the Doom Slayer roughly picked her up and threw her over his shoulder. "You're coming with me." He said as he bolted out of the house.

"Asia!" Issei screamed as Rias and the rest of the Peerage just teleported in.

And there you go, chapter 3! I hoped you all like the changes of me removing Flynn's Sacred Gear. He'll be getting another ability from Mephisto in a later chapter, but I won't reveal it. I will give a hint though: it was inspired from another franchise that features Mephistopheles.
