Lightning and Fire given form.(DxD)

As their group walked through Hades they were intercepted by a huge group of Grim Reapers led by Pluto, but the Reaper stopped and bowed when he saw Artemis. As a goddess of their pantheon, he had to be respectful.

"Lady Artemis, what do we owe the pleasure of your visit?" She walked forward and looked at Pluto. He wore a dark robe with a clown mask and a black scythe in his hands. "We are here to return my uncle's Helm." When the Grim Reapers heard that they moved aside and let them pass. Since he lost his helm, or wand in this case, Hades has been enraged and was more violent.

When they reached the black shrine that was decorated with fancy jewels and they entered. Azrael, Azazel, Kurayami, Esdeath, and Artemis went towards Hade's throne room. When they got to his throne room they saw Hades himself sitting on a back throne. He was dressed like a priest and was one big skeleton. When he felt his helm he looked calm, but they felt his urge to kill them all. He only stopped when he saw Arael as they fought before..

"Azrael, it has been a long time. I see you came to return what belongs to me. " Hades extended his bony hand and Azrael threw the helmet over to Hades. When it touched his bony hands it became a skull wand and Hades looked far stronger. "Hades, last time we fought a huge chunk of your domain was destroyed. What will you do?"

Hades looked at his wand with what can only be called a sneer on his bony face. He looked up while standing. "Last time we fought I was younger and mature. I have been preparing ever since for a rematch to kill The Angel of Death." He looked at Artemis with a look of shame.

"Niece, I heard you got engaged to that crow. How far have my family fallen, that shames me. As your family, I have to set things right by killing this crow."

Artemis frowned as she looked at Hades. "Uncle, we just came to give it back. We will leave now in peace." Hades shook his head and looked her in the eyes. "It is far too late and seems I will have to kill yet another one of my foolish brother's children." Several ultimate class Grim Reapers entered the shrine along with thousands of them surrounding the. Azazel, Esdeath, and Artemis got ready to fight, but Azrael and Kurayami looked at each other. Azrael pulled out a coin and flipped it in the air.

Kurayami and Azrael spoke out at the same time. Kurayami said "Heads," Azrael said "Tails" Azrael caught the coin and flipped it and what he saw made him sight. The coin landed on heads meaning that Kurayami would fight. Kurayami walked towards Hades while Rebellion appeared in his hands. She was excited as Hades was stronger than Ladon.

Kurayami looked right at Hades. "Hades. Is there no way to just leave without fighting? I hope you say no." Hades began to float in the sky while looking at Kurayami. Kurayami began to fly with his 16 wings and Hades's divine aura began to flow out of his body and as a being, in the top ten of the world's stronger the entire realm of the dead began to shake.

The grim reapers were forced to retreat or they would be killed by Hades himself. Azazel sighed and he, Esdeath, and Artemis began to back off as they will be caught in the crossfire. Azrael snapped his fingers and he began to film the whole thing as no one will believe him.

Shin began to growl at Hades, but the god of the dead no longer cared about speaking or even considering to let them leave in peace. His rival was watching and he had to impress. He raised his wand and thousands of magic circles and spells began to form and Kurayami for the first time saw what a technique-type fighter in the top ten was like. Kurayami watched in awe as Hades used magic to such mastery.

Even as a super fallen angel when it comes to using magic anything can go wrong as he is a power type. He focused on brute force and that can be countered. He can only use his abyss side balance breaker for about 30 seconds and he is still recovering from Ladon's poison. All the better. Hades was not going to wait for him to finished and suddenly Kurayami was blasted with thousands of spells which he dodged and the result was like a small nuke.

Seeing the effect of what kind of power Hades had even Kurayami was impressed. 'Let's take him down a pet Shin.' He felt Shin agree with him and he began his chant. What better way to break in his new form than to push it to its limits in a fight at this level. He charged at Hades while insane amounts of flames began to turn the entire area into ash while lighting, spears of light, huge tidal waves of fire, and weapons were launched like arrows at Hades.

"Behowlest the slaying of thousands of mortals and principles. Besingest the slaying of tens of thousands of goblins and evil omens. Mine name, which reacheth unto the farthest abyss, tis the Imitation God beguiling the Polar Night and the Midnight Sun. Thou shalt be exterminated by our own jet black demonic blade. Thou art merely ephemeral, oh paranormal Creator God , ABYSS SIDE, DARK DEMON OF THE ABYSS."

A terrifying howl shook the whole realm of the dead and Azrael saw it in person and he knew that Kurayami would surpass him in the future. In terms of pure power, he is equal to Hades, but when it comes to technique Hades should be able to counter him. Rebellion was covered in pitch black aura and a second sword appeared in his left hand and he charged at Hades.

He reached Hades and slashed down intending to kill him, but Hades teleported out of the way, but from the shadows, several Shins came out of the dark shadows and charged at Hades intending to cut him to pieces. Yes, a wave of Hades' hand destroyed them. As they were in one of the lowest parts of the underworld the battle of this scale was shaking the layers above.

Shiva was looking at the battle with pure interest while his subrodnate Mehaballi watched as well. "Lord Shiva, will you try to recruit him to your cause in the future?" Shiva looked at the man and smiled. "I will certainly try. Such talent will be rare, but Indra may have the same idea let's see how he deals with this." Hades looked at the huge slash that destroyed a massive part of the terrain and nodded.

"If that hit me I would be injured. Your trying to kill me are you not?" Kurayami charged at Hades as he would waste his minute. "It would be disrespectful to look down on you. If I am not careful you will kill me will you not?" Hades raised his wand and even more, spells were created and Hades's divine aura made them glow. Kurayami knew he will not win this fight, but he will at least leave a cut.

A massive spell blasted at him and he raised his sword and dropped the second blade and his eyes dilated. The fur on his body stood on end, his muscles tensed, and his fangs bared. "Dimension Slash." A huge slash cut through the whole space and Hades used several sealing and spells to block it and they were cut through and it crashed into him. HE was pushed back and he felt pain on his face.

A gash went from Hade's face and left a black slash that was smoking. Hades was feeling pain and felt his soul take some damage, yet it was not something he couldn't deal with. "You did good boy, but you are still new and your great power is done." Hades was right as his transformation was undone and he was left exhausted. Azrael looked at the ground and knew that Hades was far from done.

Kurayami could keep going, but technique types were not to be underestimated. A form he only used once could not be mastered that quickly and seems that he will have to train it even further or the drain will leave him defenseless. The wound on Hades may leave him hurt for a time, but he would heal in time. Hades was not his rival for nothing and after the last time Azrael beat him Hades for the first time began to train, research, and improve his magic.

He may even have had his spot risen on the list. Azrael flew in front of Hades with his scythe in hand. "We will fight Hades, but not today." Hades looked at the gash on his cheek and put his wand away. "Yes, seems I got a new pest to deal with in the future. The next time I see you all I will reap your souls. However, look out for my boy." Hades left and Azrael sighed as Hades could be hard to read. One moment he tells you to die the next he becomes a broody guy.

Esdeath, Artemis and Azazel looked at Kurayami and Azazel nodded. "I expected you to lose you know. Even with two Loginous, and you being a super fallen can't always trump experience. Especially when it comes to wizard-like Hades." Kurayami nodded as he knew he would lose. "I know, I wanted to see how I stack up and I have raw power, but not enough technique."

Esdeath checked on his old wounds and she sighed as it seemed they didn't open up. Artemis looked at the damage caused and she covered her face. "I expected him to be angry, but he is usually level-headed. I will have to talk to my father and explain that Hades is being broody." Azrael sat down and he had to agree.

"I have known Hades for thousand of years and I can say he was once quite the hot-blooded guy. When we met for the first time he attacked me without warning and I fought him back. I won, but after that, we would fight over and over. He still my rival and someday we will truly fight to the death. When that day happens I say the damage will be off the scale."

They all looked at Azrael a little weird out. Azazel looked at the damage Kurayami caused and he wondered what Hades and Azrael at full power would be like. "So you two go way back, hope you two really don't destroy the world as that is what I say will happen if you two fight." Artemis nodded. "As we are in an alliance I request you don't kill my uncle as even if he is the way he is he matters for the sake of the world."

Esdeath nodded. "If you two want to kill each other, go right ahead. Just do it in the dimensional gap." Azrael smiled and they were going back to Grigori, but the underworld was in shock as they all felt the underworld tremble all over from their spar. It could not even be called a fight really. Some like Shiva saw what happened and they are all interested in Kurayami.

Even a small girl in a gothic lolita dress looked at Kurayami leaving and tilted her head. "Strong, maybe he can beat Baka Red." She was in a dark room watching with hollow eyes and even from here she felt something from him like pie for a child. She stood up and she vanished from her darkroom and she appeared in front of Kurayami and his group.

She looked at all of them and Azrael had met her once back when she still looked like an old man. "Ophis, been a while." They all froze when they heard Azrael and it seemed he did not fear her. She looked at him and nodded. "Old." Azrael sighed as everyone called him an old man. He did not even look that old.

Ophis walked in front of Kurayami and he looked down at her. She looked kind of adorable and they both saw eye to eye. Both of their eyes were hollow and they starred for a few minutes without blinking. It got creepy until she hugged him while smiling. She was looking like a little child that saw her parent. He patted her head and she looked up. "Mine." He vanished and they all saw they were gone.

He appeared back in her room and she had him in a vice grip with a small smile on her face. This might be hard to explain.
