DXD: The Queen[King] of Angels?

Location: Heaven, Seventh Heaven

Time-Line 2nd May 2008

Change of POV: 3rd

Michael.

Michael feels uneasy..

He can't truly grasp the 'emotions' he is processing right now.. But the has to subdue them, thus manifesting other emotions.

Angels..Must always stay pure, no anger, no envy,no lust, no pride, no arrogance, no greed, no gluttony and no sloth.

If either Angel, just manages to 'manifest' even 5% of said emotion they shall fall, thus become Fallen Angel. 

And when they become Fallen Angel, Azazel is more than happy to 'kidnap' them back to his Grigori. And that's why he prohibited ALMOST every single Angel from leaving the Heaven, to not get corrupted by the Mortal World.

And he himself could not list the number of times he was ALMOST close to fall himself, simply from grief, sadness and anger.

And that's where he contemplates sometimes.

Was his Father wrong with creating so strict System? 

And yet, no matter how many times he tried, he could not maintain nor enter [Holy-System] to change the future of his Race...

It's a destined path of extinction at this point.

Michael grabbed the table in front of him, table containing [Holy-System] as he gazed at the device in front of him.

"Could he truly be...Alive?" He questioned no one particularly, he just had to say it. Comment on it. He gazed at screen, made from technology only his Father would have been capable of. A age of technology that long ago since passed with his Father's dead, and Humanity is not even coming closer to it.

He glanced at golden screen in front of him, he glanced at [Holy-System]'s authority.

[Authority: God} [Activated]

Father's Authority has been de-activated for hundreds of years after his death at the end of Great War. 

It was a sign, sing that their Father died after dealing the last blow to Four Great Satans, where three of them were his children.

Michael tightened his fists around the table.

~Crack~ Table broke under his force, he didn't spare it even a glance.

He will fix it later anyway.

Since yesterday, morning when he was doing his usual routine, managing [Holy-System] and casting miniscule Miracles around the world, just enough to keep 'people believing in God'. That's why.

Yet, suddenly. Out of nowhere, his Father's Authority activated, surpassing Michael's and overriding it in a second.

Michael stood up, his golden hair flowing behind his back. As his twelve golden wings outstretched themselves.

A single tear feel from his right eye.

And in that same time...

The Golden Wings, twelve golden wings turned black as Abyss before they reverted back to golden color.

He doesn't know what to think, he cast a glance towards the Golden Throne, the Throne his Father would always sit on.

From the throne he would command them from. 

From the throne he would smile at them.

Right now, that same throne is empty. 

Only the [Crown of Heaven] sat on the throne, a crown that deems the whoever wears it the Ruler of Heaven. When someone un-worthy, meaning everyone beside his Fathers wears it, it would stay the same. Just plain old but extravagant golden crown with cross.

But if Father wears it, it would glow. It's glow would reach the skies of Heaven. Deeming the one who wears it true Ruler of Heaven.

"But Father. I remember it, crystal as day when I was created by you.." Started Michael, as he slowly approached the Golden Throne.

One step at a time.

"I remember before we left on your last battle.." Michael couldn't truly bring himself to say it.. But.." You said that one day, if it comes to the worst. You shall reincarnate into Human World.. And eventually regain your powers. But the price of such feat was your memories.."

He remembers it, he clearly remembers it.

Flashback-

"Michael and Gabriel.." Both Michael and Gabriel turned towards him, their Father, their Creator. As he stood at front of their Heavenly Army, waiting for approaching Devil's Army lead by Four Great Satans.

Michael listened, he looked at his Father. The fluttering of the wings from the Heavenly Army could be heard, as thousands Angels behind them readied 

Gabriel wore her usual golden armor. Despite what many may think, she has killed hundreds of thousands of Devils. By no means she is innocent.

Both Seraphs perked.

"I feel it.. My end might be approaching." Continued their Father. Michael and Gabriel widened their eyes, they are dozens of meters away from their armies. It's a good thing they could not heard such words from their Creator.

"Father! How could you say such thing!" Gabriel voiced her opinion, as she brandished her spear in front of herself. 

But Michael, despite wanting to disagree. Knows deep down..... That Father was right.

Father is weakened now, incredibly so.

Michael and other Seraphs do not know what happened, but sealing two Heavenly Dragons could not have possibly weakened their Heavenly Creator to this magnitude.

His strength is barely reaching 10%, his Magical Power was this weak...

They all could feel it, but simply choose to not acknowledge.

And he can see it, not only is Father's strength weakened but he is also exhausted..

At first, Father disappeared for days. Without any notice, any warning. And Heaven has reached Chaos before he returned.

No one knew what happened or where he was, but he returned exhausted and tired.

And yet..

He did not have time to rest, immediately he was forced to engage with two Heavenly Dragons that rampaged across the battlefields himself, with barely any assistance from Michael and other Serapsh.

And those Devils and Fallen..

Despite signing 'corporation to deal with Dragons together' they pulled back, leaving both God and his army to deal with the threat alone.

But what was Michael supposed to expect from his dear sister Lucifer at this point.. It was just another ploy to defeat kid or weaken him.

 While Azazel was forced to engage with approaching Greek armies from his flank, he had a valid reason to pull back.

And now, Lucifer's plan seems to have worked. Father was at his weakest.

"Then Father, you should retreat! We'll deal with the Devils army!" Shouted Gabriel trying to pull some sense into their Father. But deep down, both Michael and Gabriel knew.

If Father leaves them here, they both are going to die.

Devil's army is not only lead by Four Great Satans, all High-Satan Class. But also Great King Bael himself too. Another Satan-Class, Astaroth Too.

Belial too..

This army had seven Satan-Class Devils. And both Michael and Gabriel wouldn't be able to hold them off, they would be deleted...

And that's why God does not want to back down either.. He tried, he tried to do his best.. But he is forced to do everything in his might to stop his children's bloodshed, even when he is forced to kill them..

And then.

"If I die in this battle, you two should know.." Gabriel immediately went to protest, but Michael's hand on her shoulder was more than enough to catch her silence.

"If it comes to worst, I want you to know.. " He paused." That I loved you all and that's this will not be the end. I'll be back eventually. If it takes decades, centuries or thousands of years, one day my soul shall be reincarnated without memories. I'll be reborn on Mortal Realm as a Human. By that time, don't treat me as a Father."

They silently watched as they greeted Devils army.

"I'll be like a blank slate, a new being despite possessing soul..It would be appropriate to treat me as sibling then? Who knows...."

And they are here..

"Father! Are you prepared to die?~" Sad a husky voice, as they noticed the Devils army approaching. Leading the army is none other than the 'Devil' herself. Lucifer.

Lucifer is a beautiful woman, with long silver hair reaching her waist, tall for a woman standing at whooping 180cm. Her body clad in dark-red armor, but still barely concealing her 'assets'.

Truly, only those of Gabriel level like Goddesses of Beauty could compare with her.

FlashBack END-

Michael wiped the last tear flowing from his eyes before he stood up from his kneeling position.

"It must be it.. Father's reincarnation." He muttered to himself as he cast one last glance towards the throne before turning around and walking towards [Holy-System[. " If Father has truly reincarnated and regained his powers..."

"Then I shall find him before Devils do or other Pantheons and teach him wield his Powers myself.. That's the least I could do for my Father, for Our creator.." He proclaimed as he looked at [Holy-System] in front of himself. "No, for brother I suppose.."

He chuckled, a dry chuckle indeed.

Fate is such a fickle thing. 

Who would have expected, that once 3rd Strongest existence would die and reincarnate into weakest race? Without memories too, to go along with it..

Only ones who knew about God's death would be entire Heaven, after all Michael could not lie to his brothers and sisters.

He had to tell the true even if it hurt them, even if it backfired. 

So he locked the Heaven, so no one could leave nor enter. 

And beside entire Angel Race, only Higher-Ups in Grigori along with Devils Higher Ups knew. And of course, Higher-Ups in Church too.

The secret of his death must be contained at all cost, otherwise Pantheons almost obliterated by Father would use this opportunity to strike back.

One such example would be Egyptian Pantheon, Pantheon that barely exist.

 Even when said Pantheon is almost destroyed, they have remaining forces to cause distress and another Great War...

Michael sighed.

If he could find his 'brother' before others do, Lie about his 'Father' being alive would indeed become truth.

But how? 

How could he start to search for him, Earth is big. 

Michael shock his head, he needs a trail Michael just needs even 'one' particle of his 'Father's ' power or someone's power similar to his, and he would be able to find them. 

Just anything that he could track..

He hastily opened [Holy-System] to check it, and see 'if a new Angel was born'. 

He searched, he looked for newest..

And zero.

Newest Angel was a Miracle Child born between a Human and Angel, a true love. Child is now ten year old, living on Earth with his father.

But then, he heard it..

When someone, or something were utter a name of a God or being of similar Status, the God or that being would be capable to hear that voice, and only if that person knew how 'God' looked. 

Otherwise, Earth's Gods would have been flooded with requests from left and right.

But prayers, when someone prays to 'Father', the energy accumulated from prayers would be accumulated in [Holy-System] and that energy could be used to 'create' Miracles, Holy-Weapons or blessings for Human race. 

But..

"Sigh, I just want to get this over...Michael huh.." 

Michael heard him, no her. A powerful voice, carrying same 'Holy-Light' of his Father.

But..

Voice belonged to a woman.

Michael was immediately able to locate where voice comes from.

From Japan, near Tokyo in a small town that's...

Under Devils control.

Just sweat, his 'Father's potential reincarnation' is in Kuoh.. It couldn't get worse at this point, that's what Michael though.

But then he stopped. He was too 'pre-occupied' with locating where voice comes from that he disregarded one fact..

His 'Father' has been reincarnated as a woman?!

His eyes shoot up open.

He didn't tell any of his brothers not sisters about their Father's 'potential reincarnation'.

He doesn't want to disappoint them.

He doesn't want to give them false hope.

He doesn't want to be... What would Human term for that be.. Ah... A jerk, indeed.

Chapter Word Count: 2014

I actually enjoyed writing this Chapter!

Writing 'Michael's ' deep feelings for his Father and his demise.

His 'potential reincarnation' and how Michael would be capable of dealing with any potential setbacks in the future.

I honestly don't think I would have been capable of writing this chapter better. Gabriel and Michael will be 'main Seraphs'.

Gabriel will be drastically changed here, I really don't want to write her 'innocent every second', but rather into someone 'playful at one moment' and serious when needed.

After all, despite Gabriel's supposed 'innocence' she participated in the Great War, meaning she must have 'dealt with' tens of thousands of Devils as a Seraph-Class Angel herself.

I hope you all enjoy 'Michael's view on this'.

If you did, I might even write chapters like this with other characters, for example: Uriel and Azazel.
