(FAIR BIT OF WARNING. THIS CHAPTER INCLUDES THE DEATH OF A CHILD. IF YOU CAN’T HANDLE THAT SKIP A FAIR PART OF THIS CHAPTER.)

While the kids increased their training Azazel looked for sacred gear posers and especially Viritra users as if Raynare could have all 6 it could result in a new Longinus. He sent his fallen throughout Japan for a start and ordered them all to stay out of sight. In a small town called Kuoh, he may have found what he was looking for.

There was a young kid around Kurayami and the others age. He had normal parents and was a normal kid, but sadly he just had to be born with the wrong sacred gear. Azazel may want peace, but it does not change the fact that he is one of the evilest existence in the three factions. God knew he had evil in his heart since the start and he was right.

A team of Fallen with three pairs of wings snuck into Kuoh Town and abducted the kid and his whole family with no trouble at all. While the devils ran this town they were not the most hands-on owners and they got the kid with no issue..

Saji was terrified as he was just a 6-year-old kid. He was tied to the same device that killed Asia in canon and took her Twilight Healing. He was crying and suddenly walked in Azazel with no smile on his face. Saji was gagged and trying to escape. Azazel sighed but shrugged.

“Well, kid. As you will be dead soon it’s fair I explain. You own sacred gear which is like a weapon, or gift from God. Sadly one of my favorites also owns the same type and we need all 6, yours included.” Saji struggled even harder to escape, but it was useless. “Don’t worry. Your soul will pass on and reincarnate, or go to heaven.”

Azazel engaged the kid and Saji screamed for help. “MOM. DADDY. SAVE ME.” Azazel gagged him again and smiled lightly. “Sorry kid, but that’s just how it is.” He activated the device as the bright lights began to surround his right arm. Suddenly the gauntlet like a Chameleon showed up and began to be pulled off him.

The screams of agony and fear even made Azazel feel a little bad, but too late now. Not long after the Sacred gear was out and he placed it in a special means to preserve it. As for the body it was staged as a brain hemorrhage. Azazel erased all evidence of what occurred and went to find called Raynare and Kurayami to his office. When they got there he was grinning and pointed to Absorption Line.

When Raynare got close to it the gauntlet rushed to her hand and the split soul of Viritra began to mend its self and she did not pass out this time. The gauntlet appeared on her arm and she was smiling. “4 down, 2 to go. How did you get this one?” Azazel grinned. “Some nameless criminal had it and we took it.” They both felt there was more to it, but they really didn’t care.

Kurayami shrugged. “Well whatever. At least she is stronger now.” Raynare nodded. “Well thanks Azazel.” She bowed lightly and went back with Kurayami to her training. From here on the training they went though increased in intensity while every morning they spent 2 hours meditating with Kuroka in the morning.

As time passed they just got stronger and their training increased in intensity to match up to them. Currently, Kurayami, Raynare, and Esdeath were in the middle of New York for their next mission. Apparently, Azazel heard some mess popping up with the Greek Gods as Zeus and Poseidon were currently up in squabble.

Esdeath looked around the city and found it interesting, but at the same time disgusting. She looked at Kurayami dressed in his usual trench coat and asked him. “So after these years, Azazel sends us here why?” Kurayami was 12 and looked at his map. “Apparently someone stole the Lightning of Zeus and he blames the demigod son of Poseidon.”

Raynare sighed and looked at the big city with a bored look. “So why the hell are we here?” Kurayami looked back to her briefly. “Apparently Azazel wants us to help the son of Poseidon as he can get a deal with the Greeks if he helps him.” Esdeath gazed back to him and asked again. “So how do we find the demigod then? It’s like finding a needle in a haystack in this city.”

Kurayami nodded. “While it be hard if Azazel hadn’t known who the kid is. His name is Percy Jackson and he goes to a special school and we just need to keep an eye for him as sooner or later they will try to claim the lightning from him.” Esdeath was interested in the lightning. “So what’s so special about the lightning of Zeus?”

He nodded. “It is one of the strongest weapons in the world only matched by the Longinus, Gungnir, Thors hammer and you get the picture. Anyone gets that they will get stronger to usurp Zeus.” Esdeath nodded. “Well let’s get the kid and go.” Raynare also wanted to get it done with and go home. “Sadly we can’t just yet, but no worry. We don’t need to do much and the rest will be done for us.”

They began to walk to the museum as apparently, the middle school-aged Percy went to was having a field trip and Esdeath found something strange. “You said that as long as they had human hybrids could get sacred gears. Can demigods?” He shook his head. “Something about the gods makes it impossible for them to get them.” They nodded and bought a ticket to the museum.

The three of them got some attention, but as they were taller than their ages suggested and they had tickets they were ignored. When they got to the Greek section the class was having a lecture by Mr. Brunner better known as Chiron the trainer of Greek Heroes. “Here we have the three brothers, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. After they overthrew their father and chopped him up to bits. They ruled.”

The high school students were interested, but Percy was wearing headphones until Mr. Brunner continued. “A thing about the gods is that they would sometimes come down to Earth to a how do I say this.” A kid raised his hand and laughed. “Hook up.” Mr. Brunner chucked. “Yes. Hook Up. The children of the gods and mortals were called demigods.”

“Some very famous ones were like Heracles and Achilles. Can anyone name one more? Mr. Jackson? Any clue.” Percy was shaken by his friend Grover in crutches. Percy pulled out his earbuds and looked at his teacher. “Excuse me?” Esdeath saw that and shook her head at how clueless and weak he was for a demigod. Mr. Brunner asked again. “Can you name one more demigod?”

Percy looked around and at the Greek text which began to shift and turned into English. “Perseus.” Mr. Brunner nodded. “Good. Next, we have the thirteen laborers of Heracles. He had to complete 13 missions and one of them was slaying the Nemean Lion. The beast’s hide was unpriceable, so he choked it to death. He took it’s skin and formed a armor from it. Percy’s teacher tapped him on the shoulder.

“Mr. Jackson. Come with me.” He felt it was odd, but he followed her. Mr. Brunner saw that and was going to follow when he finished here, but he looked at Grover who nodded. Esdeath, Raynare, and Kurayami all followed and when they got to the room Percy was looking around. “Hello. Where you go?”

He looked up and saw his teacher high up. “How did you get up their?” She glared at him and turned into a horrendous beast. She screeched and charged at him, but a white lightning bolt turned her into cinders. Percy fell on his ass and looked where it came from and saw a kid in a trench coat with a black cross on his neck.

Kurayami approached Percy and kneeled down. “Are you Percy Jackson?” He nodded. “Why?” Suddenly Mr. Brunner and Grover came in and when Chiron saw Kurayami and Raynare he knew what they were as they stopped hiding their auras. “Fallen Angels? What are you doing here? This does not concern you.”

Grover looked over to the wheel-chaired man in shock. The higher-ups kept the existences of other pantheons and religions more like myths as it would weaken them if less believed in them. Kurayami looked over and explained. “If Zeus and Poseidon fight another war the other Pantheons won’t stay quiet as a war of that scale will affect their followers.”

Chiron sighed and knew it was true. War of the scale that Zeus and Poseidon were about to fight would drag in other Pantheons and the Greeks especially didn’t want to piss off Indra or Shiva as those two were in the top ten. Chiron looked them over and needed to know more. “So what does Azazel win out of this?” Kurayami explained. “He wants a treaty with the Greeks as a means to avoid war.”

Percy was in shock and was about to craw always, but he was grabbed by the nape of his shirt by Raynare. “Don’t be a baby. Your 12, so act like it.” He was going to complain it was not normal, but he didn’t. Chiron decided. “Grover. Go with them. Take him to the camp. Nowhere can he be safe.” Grover nodded and approached.

“Let’s go Percy.” Before he left Chiron gave him a pen. “Here. Only use it in times of great danger.” Percy looked at the pen and looked at the man like he was crazy. “This is a pen.” Kurayami pushed him to get him to move. However Chiron grabbed him by the shoulder. “You three won’t be able to enter the camp.” They shrugged.

Kurayami grabbed Percy’s hand and placed a bracelet on it. it glowed purple and suddenly it clamped down. “OW. What the hell?” Kurayami sighed. “That’s a tracker. I can follow you as long as you wear it. Any way let’s go to this camp.” Kurayami, Raynare, and Esdeath walked out with the confused Percy.

Grover asked Kurayami if it was true. “Hey. Is what Chiron said true? You are Fallen Angels. Is the God of the Bible real?” Kurayami knew he was dead, but he wouldn’t tell a soul. He was one of the reasons the Three Powers were not taken over by other pantheons. “Yes. He is real don’t ask more.”

Percy looked at the bracelet and than asked. “What about my mom? We can’t leave her.” Kurayami sighed and nodded. “Let’s get her and then we leave. My job is to guard you not babysit you.” Grover looked over. “Hey. I am the protector here got it.” Esdeath looked at him and laughed. “You? You are weak.”

Grover was going to complain, but he didn’t. When they got to Percy’s house Percy’s mom was serving drinks to her husband’s friends. However they all suddenly got blank looks and all of them fell face-first into the table. Sally saw that and wanted to laugh.

They all looked at Kurayami who raised his hand. He looked over and shrugged. “Fallen Angel magic. We wipe the minds of mortals who see us.” Grover was impressed. “You teaching that?” He shook his head. “You can’t learn it as it is a ability Fallen can just use. Anyway, let’s go.” When they got outside Kurayami placed a talisman on the car and it turned into an SUV.

Sally saw how her crappy car got turned into a luxury S.U.V. “Can I keep that?” Kurayami nodded. “It was just alchemy. Nothing hard to use.” They all got in and drove to the camp Half-Blood.
