Capitulo 1:New Life

At first you're going to think this is a typical, cliché story, just hold on until the action comes.

Narrator:There is an Earth in DC that is far removed from the rest of the creation of The Presence, this same era in which heroes and villains did not exist physically, but existed in comics, just like the real world we all live in. This earth had no number, it was called just Earth, it had no number or anything, just, earth.

Earth:

Blaze:

-I was reading a DC comic book, it was one of the few I had, because I was more of a digital comic book reader via apps, but now that I had a physical comic book, I wanted to try reading it in physical-.

Nero if he existed in DC would be very useful and very powerful, I wish I existed there too.

-He said sighing, as despite being 18 years old, it was his dream to be in the DC world and be an anti-hero, and have villains of his own and interact with the heroes-.

Narrator:

At that, flashing beams of light brightly illuminated the entire room, as if something had appeared.

???:

I heard your request, I can help you with that, but you must do something for me in return.

-It sounded like a neutral voice resounded throughout the room of that boy, although there was no person in the place beyond the boy-?

Blaze:

Do you think I'm going to believe that, that only exists in fiction, I'm not going to believe you unless you prove to me that you can do it.

????:

Why did I have to create them...

-He said noticing something neutral in his tone of voice. For two seconds, the boy's room would turn into space-.

Blaze

-At once he saw the changes in his room, his first instinct would be to hold his breath, waving his arms as he thought he was going to die- -Blaze, the boy's first instinct was to hold his breath, waving his arms as he thought he was going to die.

...

-After a few seconds he notices that he had not died, since he did not feel cold, did not feel that he lacked oxygen and could stand in space- ...

????:

Now do you believe me when I tell you that I can help you with what I offered?

Blaze:

Yes, I believe you but where is-

-In a moment, he manages to see down below seeing many lands of the multiverse, all different, some half destroyed, others completely healed, and others totally turned upside down.

How is this possible?

????:

What you know as DC actually exists, just as the characters there exist as well, only, the land where you come from, is distant to my creation which are those characters.

Blaze:

Wait, did you just say "My creation?" does that mean you're the presence?

The presence:

Yes, I am me, the people who die in your land, some are sent to my multiverse as some variant of one of the main heroes, while others are simply reincarnated back into the land.

Blaze:

That's interesting, although I'm still thinking then how it all came about but oh well. What do you want in exchange for me being reincarnated into your creation?

The presence:

You see, there is a universe in which it is very similar to the original, only in this one the Kryptonians do not exist, so Superman, Supergirl do not exist, being that they are the strongest of the league, plus there is no flash Barry Allen or Wally west, so the speedforce has no place there, although it could happen that at some point someone manages to have the speedforce. The Martian detective is not in this universe either, nor is Hal Jordan.

Blaze:

Are you telling me that universe is defenseless because the justice league is unformed?

The presence:

Yes, that's where you come in, with Nero's power and abilities, with trainings that I will leave you written on a sheet, you will be able to become stronger.

Blaze:

Alright, I'll get into this, but I still have a question, can I choose my appearance?

The presence:

I don't think that will be a problem but yes.

Blaze:

Ok, I want Nero's body from devil may cry, but I want to keep the hairstyle he had in 4, and have the clothes he owns in 5.

The presence:

Okay, granted, is there anything else you want to fulfill what I'm telling you?

Blaze:

I want to have the obvious powers of Nero, but I want to have two Devils trigger, one that is like in 4, and another the form of 5, the full form.

The presence:

That's fine with me, but I'll tell you that obviously you won't start with all those powers, you'll have to unlock them as you train.

Blaze:

I know I know I know, and as the last thing I want, I want to be really good at physical combat without the Queen net.

The presence;

Well done, since you won't always be able to use your sword in combat, granted.

So, anything else before I send you off to your new life?

Blaze:

Yes, what is my goal in this universe?

The presence:

Your goal will be to make the justice league and protect the universe from all the problems that occur, both that occur within the earth and the problems that come from outside.

Blaze:

Okay, I understand, I'm ready now, you can send me no problem.

The presence:

Understood, then, best of luck to you, although, I'll still give you some things you didn't ask for.

-He said and then snapped his fingers.

Blaze:

¡!

-At that moment, he felt like he was attracted to the ground, being sent by the presence to some land, but as he traveled, he observed several lands, many passing in front of his eyes, due to the vastness of the DC multiverse.

It's incredible!

-He said until at one point, he blinked and found himself in a strange garage, exiting it by pressing a switch. He noticed several people since he was in a city, but he couldn't identify which one.

Calm down, the first thing I have to do is to see the leaf that the presence left me to become stronger.

-He said going back into the garage, closing it the same way it opened. Entering the house, he noticed that he had a sheet on top of the kitchen table, starting to read-.

"You only have a part of Nero's power, you must go training both physically and your sword, for now, you can't access any devil trigger, you only have your normal form, your sword, that yes, I gave you the power to manifest the devil trigger arm. You can train normally on your own, hitting the air or defeating villains on your own, don't take your new life as a game.

Being half demon, you don't need to eat, sleep or drink water, but if you want to, you can.

The powers will be unlocked over time on your own. You are in a new city on earth, in this city you will have new and exclusive villains plus those that will come in the future. This city is called Sekinin, good luck.

Sincerely:The presence".

Blaze:

I see, sounds more like a Japanese name to me but I guess it works for me. I'll watch TV, to see if it's not like in my country and they're more fake than anything else.

-He says sitting on the couch taking control of the TV, pressing the power and looking for the news channel, noticing that the crime rate had gone up, due to the fact that there are no heroes in this city-.

I'm pretty excited about this, I'll be your savior!

-Until then he noticed that they were doing a live broadcast in which a criminal was in the center, and that nobody could do anything- -I'll go over there right now, but this time I'll be your savior!

I'll go there right now, but this time I won't use my sword, I'll only use my fists, I need to get used to this new body.

-He says as he stood up from his armchair, grabbing the red queen that was his sword, carrying it on his back. Leaving his house, heading towards the first person he saw-.

Hey, excuse me, do you know where is the center where there is a criminal guy with powers?

Average Citizen:

Uhm, yes, look, I'll point you to it.

-Proceeds to point him with a map to where the center of the city is, where the disturbance is being caused-.

Blaze:

Thanks, good man, see you!

-He says to then start running towards the direction the man indicated to him, since he had to get there as fast as possible-.

Average Citizen:

Boy, why are you going into danger?

-I shout to him when I saw how that young man with white hair ran away, since I wanted to know the reason why the boy wanted to know why he was going to the place- -Blaze.

Blaze:

Because I think I know someone who will help with this!

-He shouted back loudly as he continued to run towards the center, losing sight of himself at the speed he was moving.

Pyroth:

-It was exploding cars by throwing them at others, due to its telekinesis power- -It was exploding cars by throwing them at others, due to its telekinesis power- -It's too easy!

This is too easy! This city is the easiest to dominate if there are no heroes to stop our brakes!

Blaze:

-He arrives just at that moment, noticing that he is a guy who has the power of telekinesis, this was going to be a complicated battle, since he knew how complicated it could be to face people with those powers-.

Hey, buddy! over here!

-she whistles at him to get his attention-.

Pyroth:

Huh? and who are you, punk?

-He asked confused, as he didn't understand how a boy wasn't scared at all by his powers-.

Blaze:

Me? I just know that I'm the one who's going to make you regret attacking this city.

-He positioned himself in front of pyroth without any fear, although deep down he was very nervous, since it was his first fight, but he was fully confident that he was going to win-.

Pyroth:

Who do you think you are, don't you see that I have fire powers, do you want to die or inside you are that you can't move.

Blaze:

-Just when he finished talking, this one quickly gave him a headbutt with a lot of force, since he was like this because of the adrelin of the moment-.

Pyroth:

-She couldn't dodge the blow, backing away because she couldn't think that he was going to attack in that way-.

Ahg! Y-you fucking brat! you're going to die.

Blaze:

(Good thing I can't die, and that I'm coming back to life. I don't know how to fight, but I have to improvise.)

-He said to himself, raising his fists, flexing his legs, slowly approaching the other guy.

Pyroth:

-This one just the same struck the same pose as he did, only as a boxer, keeping his eyes on his fists-.

Blaze:

-He didn't say anything, he just kept approaching him silently, he had to improvise in all this so that the fight would go in his favor-.

....

Pyroth:

-When he was already close, he threw a punch in the stomach to that boy without thinking about it, since he was covering only his face- -Blaze.

Blaze:

-He received the blow in the stomach although he could react, but he couldn't dodge it, retreating in the same way with one hand right there- -Blaze: -Blaze: -But he couldn't dodge it.

Ahg!...this hurts

Blaze: -says between groans because of the strong blow he received, looking up for a few seconds because of the pain-.

What-

Pyroth:

-At that moment he uses his telekinesis to throw a 4x4 pickup truck towards the white haired boy with force-.

Blaze:

-He received the full impact with the truck in front of him, feeling how the truck threw the boy into a concrete wall-

¡!

-At that moment the wall cracked, the boy's back started to hurt due to the strong impact against the concrete wall, and then he stood up- -Blaze: -Blaze: -Blaze: -Blaze: -Blaze!

Pyroth:

You're one of the tough guys huh? tell me, you're a hero and this is your first fight? because you really suck!

-He said mockingly, as he was expecting a super hero like Batman.

Blaze:

-At that moment he looks at his hand, remembering that he possessed the power to manifest the demonic arm. So he rejoins, starting to run straight at him- -Blaze: -Stop taunting!

Blaze: -Stop taunting me!

Pyroth:

-Seeing it coming straight towards him, he just laughed, as he was carried away by the emotion of the moment. But he still ran towards it too-

Blaze:

-As they were about to approach, he put his arm back, and then stretched it forward, making the demonic hand present larger, grabbing the guy by the middle of the body-.

Now who's useless?

Pyroth:

-He was surprised to see how a hand appeared and grabbed him from the middle of the body, feeling squeezed as if he was between two narrow walls-.

How is it possible for you to have these powers?

Blaze:

I'm not going to tell you, now it's my turn!

-He says to then, throw him to the side with quite a bit of force-.

Pyroth:

-He was thrown by that arm, bouncing on the ground, having several scratches all over his body, due to the acceleration he was going- -He was thrown by that arm, bouncing on the ground, having several scratches all over his body, due to the acceleration he was going-

¡K!

-He rejoined quickly, getting up from the ground, noticing that the boy was already coming, with intentions of doing the same-.

Blaze:

-He was approaching at a great speed, ready to use the same trick as before, preparing his demonic arm- -Blaze: -He was approaching at a great speed, ready to use the same trick as before, preparing his demonic arm-.

Pyroth:

-As he knew he was going to use the same trick, since he was very predictable, he used his telekinesis but this time he would play dirty, he would attract towards himself two cars that were behind the boy-.

Blaze:

(Now it's my time! He's given up!)

-He was very nervous, but when he was about to hit him, he felt two cars passing over him.

¡K!

-At that moment he fell to the ground, in front of his enemy, with tire stains on his blue jacket-.

Pyroth:

It's time to say goodbye boy!

-He said to then raise only two fingers, causing a pile of cars to rise into the air, missing the front part-.

Blaze:

-Couldn't stand up, he was recovering from his injuries, noticing that several cars were piling on top of him at the time-.

¡!

Pyroth:

Give my regards to God.

-He said to then move away a little, and make each car fall on top of the boy at a great height, and on the last car, which released gasoline, this one threw a match, making all the cars explode near the boy-.

Blaze:

-He received every hit of cars and the explosion of several of them, flying out of there, falling down next to a restaurant where there were several people-.

K..damn...how is it possible that I could lose...I'm only alive thanks to being part demon, I have regeneration.

-He says and then spits out blood.

Pyroth:

What a crappy hero you are, your attacks were very predictable, and I'm sure this is your first fight, you're a shit and you know it.

-He said approaching him, to then kick him in his mouth with a lot of force in his mouth-.

Blaze:

-He felt the foot stitch on his nose, his enemy had super-human strength, so that kick sent him flying against the glass that was there, of pure luck without breaking it, only staining the blood that was coming out of the boy's head-.

B-bloody...

-He tried to stand up, but his legs and back didn't feel good, since the strong blows and impacts, plus the explosion destroyed his bones.

Pyroth:

Look at you, you can't even stand up, it's unbelievable that you're still alive, but very soon I'll finish with that!

Narrator:

At that moment several patrol cars arrived at the place, getting off the same several policemen with normal pistols and shotguns.

Police N1:

Both of you, on the ground right now, you are under arrest for destroying or causing disturbances inside the city.

Police N2:

If they put up resistance, we will have to shoot and we will not hesitate to do so

Police N3:

It doesn't matter that you have powers, we'll still capture you both, so engage peacefully.

Blaze:

-He fell to the ground at that moment, not being able to move much, looking up stretching an arm towards one of the policemen-.

N...n...n...n...stay away! He has telekinetic powers!

Pyroth:

What nice weapons..it would be bad if these were triggered in a way that was not at all justified.....

Blaze:

Don't you dare!

-He tried to extend his demonic arm, but couldn't.

Narrator:

That man used his telekinetic powers to make the guns point at their owners, and then using the same power on the trigger of each gun, ending the lives of all those policemen.

Blaze:

You're a bastard, you kill good people on a whim and fancy....

-He was recovering thanks to his regeneration but still, he couldn't stop himself-.

Pyroth:

Silence, right now you're nothing but an ant to me, now, you saved yourself, because I hear patrols, but..I won't leave without leaving you a little present.

Pyroth: -grabs him by the neck strangling him and throwing him with force towards the glass of that restaurant, where there were several terrified people-.

Blaze:

-He was thrown against the glass, breaking it this time with him, falling several on his legs getting some cuts that would taste right away, hitting the ground, blood starting to come out of his mouth-.

Pyroth:

-Escapes from the place running away from the police patrols, to hide somewhere safe-.

Site Manager:

Quick, everyone help the young man to stand up, he's badly injured

35 year old adult:

-It was a citizen who was exercising, so he lifted the boy easily since he weighed very little, sitting him on one of the chairs-.

Don't move, you have very deep wounds and I'm sure you have several broken bones.

Cashier:

I will look for some tweezers, alcohol and patches to place on your body, the others call the ambulance we have an injured person.

-She said to go in search of what she said, bringing the tweezers, alcohol, and patches, approaching the white-haired man, removing the pieces of glass that were on his body.

Don't move...

Blaze:

I'm sorry you have to worry about me...I'm a burden.

-He says barely able to speak, while his bones were regenerating inside at a somewhat slow pace-.

25-year-old female citizen:

-While the cashier was taking care of him and treating his wounds, she took out her cell phone to try to dial the ambulance- -While the cashier was taking care of him and treating his wounds, she took out her cell phone to try to dial the ambulance-.

I will call the ambulance to get them here as quickly as possible

Blaze:

No, don't call them, just..just hang up, please..they must be busier to attend to me.

25 year old female citizen:

-She didn't want to hang up but she was right, she cut the call, then approached the white-haired man, adjusting his nose.

That should help a little

Blaze:

-At that moment he felt a great pain all over his body, but at least it was healing, but he held back the urge to scream-.

T-thank you, t-that's very kind of you.

Manager:

The police, well, one of the patrol cars is on its way..I'll explain what happened, but first tell me what you were doing fighting against that guy

Blaze:

I was going to stop him, but I lost because he used his telekinetic powers so well-.

Police:

-At that moment, a policeman, who was armed, opens the door of the restaurant- -At that moment, a policeman, who was armed, opens the door of the restaurant-.

I want an explanation now of everything that happened, and why there are dead cops outside.

Blaze:

A guy with telekinetic powers made the cops self-shoot themselves....

Police:

You're the guy who was confronting him, we all thought you were going to win.

Blaze:

I thought the same thing too.

-He said feeling defeated and humiliated, plus he was already a bit in shock, as he had witnessed the death of several policemen-.

Police:

Let me report this, commander.

-Speaks over the radio with his commander, explaining the situation and the casualties there were, naming the names of each policeman-.

Blaze:

-While recovering from his pains, this one listened as he had an ear capable enough to hear him-.

....

-Starting to get several tears in his eyes without making any screams or anything, only several drops fell from his eyelids-.

Cashier:

It's incredible...your skin regenerates and heals from your wounds, with that you are already better...even if you couldn't save those policemen, you made the attempt....

-She said noticing how the man was shedding tears without crying, as if it was the first time he witnessed a massacre.

35 year old adult:

It's not your fault, you didn't have the necessary experience nor the knowledge about the villain to defeat him...but thanks anyway for making the attempt.

-Said the man, noticing how the boy was shedding tears, holding back the urge to speak or make noises-

Police:

You...you'll have to tell the families of each of those police officers about the death of their father/son/brother/yard/cousin..

Blaze:

-At that moment when he heard that, he stands up from the seat to then throw himself on the floor apropos, since because of his impotence, he made some families lose a family member, because he was so excited he got carried away, all this was his fault, he even remembered the words of The presence-.

"Don't take your new life as a game."

-That phrase began to ring throughout his head, as he hit the floor with tears of helplessness, he blamed himself for the deaths of every cop that had died without him being able to do anything-.

Cashier:

Hey..you can't blame yourself for that..you couldn't do anything, we all saw how you were slaughtered on the ground....

-Although the guy was a stranger, I could tell he was a good man.

Blaze:

-Another phrase that rang in his head, was "I will be your savior" "I wish I could be in DC", those were the phrases he said before he came, when he thought his new life was going to be fun and trouble free, and now he was carrying the deaths of 8 cops on his back. He didn't say anything at the time, as he was taking it all in-.

.....

Manager:

Stand up boy...you can make amends for your err-.

Blaze:

-When he heard that, he immediately got up, but he was still crying, shattered, in his conscience he had 8 deaths because of him- -Blaze: I thank you all for your help, but I must go, I have to go.

I thank you all for your help, but I must go, I won't stay here any more minutes, listening how it was my fault all this...and why I'm a shit as a hero, even he said so...and...and...it's true...

-He said to run out of there, as his body was completely healthy, escaping from that restaurant in a few seconds. Then he goes back to his house where he had appeared, entering his house, leaving the red queen on the floor, throwing himself on his bed, repeatedly hitting his head against the pillow-.

I was supposed to win! This was supposed to mean a better life! I thought this would be like in the comics! But I only came to make things worse, I'm the worst...I'm not good for this.

-He said ending up falling asleep in his bed, to try to calm down and rest for a while, but having nightmares about the policemen who died because of him, torturing himself for not being able to avoid those deaths-
