(Narrator's POV)

It was a long run for Akira Fudo, the ending going the same as always: his brutal death at the hands of Ryo/Satan, a person he thought was his friend.

After going through the difficult struggle to protect his loved ones and humanity, Akira fell victim to another of God's punishments to Satan himself.

And the cycle continues as always: God destroys and resets everything just so Satan could suffer. It would end up the same as always too.

God creates humanity and the world as a whole, allowing the events to repeat seemingly forever until Satan could learn. However this time...things were different.

God created F/n Fudo this time, a young man dubbed "Kuoh Academy's Shadow" for his anti-social and introverted attitude. His life was the same as always. He was forced to live with a friend of his due to his parents work and his life was averagely normal albiet hard.

Still, life has a way to shape destiny.

(No One's POV)

We get a shot of a door leading to the bathroom before F/n (our protagonist) was seen walking out in his school uniform. Then, he was met with his friend (and secret love interest), Murayama.

Murayama: Are you ready, F/n?

F/n gave her a small smile, which she returned with her own smile.

F/n then walked downstairs with her and peacefully ate breakfast with his adoptive family. Before him and Murayama left, his adoptive father and mother, Takeo & Valerie, stopped him.

Takeo: Remember, F/n: always stay strong no matter the influence.

Valerie: He's right. Don't let the others stop you for being different.

F/n: *smiles* Okay, I will.

Murayama's younger brother, Koji, also spoke up.

Koji: Bye! See you two after school.

The two waved goodbye and left, where they soon came across their two other friends: Katase & Aika.

Katase: Are you two ready for today?

Murayama: *smiles* You know it.

F/n: *sighs* I guess so.

Katase: Are you sure, F/n? You know you can just tell us.

F/n: I'll be fine, I promise.

Aika: You say that all the time, even when you're bruised up and beaten.

F/n: Come on, I've taken it all before. *starts walking* Come on, we don't want to be late.

And they started to head to Kuoh Academy. On the school grounds, the boys looked at F/n with scorn while the girls gave him suspicious looks, all while whispering untrue claims.

F/n just sighed and started his day.

~ Timeskip (because too lazy) ~

After classes had let out, F/n was seen packing his things before a group of boys came and got up in his face.

Boy #1: You really don't learn, do you?

F/n: *sighs* Learn what?

His collar was roughly grabbed, almost choking him in the process.

Boy #2: No girl would want some loner like you.

Boy #3: Right, so stay away from them or else.

F/n: Or else what?

Then with no hesitance, the boys began to beat him up against the wall, breaking his nose and bruising his face.

Boy #1: Now, stay away from the Kendo girls, you loser!

After they left him, F/n just sat against the wall, lightly sobbing and guilty over not being strong enough to defend himself. Murayama found him and instantly showed worry over him, but he kept insisting he was okay.

Murayama: F/n, please! You can't keep  doing this to yourself! It hurts me seeing you like this!

After she spoke those last words, F/n started to break into tears, seeing that he's causing his own love pain. After she comforted him, they went to the nurse to get him checked before they left.

~ Timeskip ~

F/n was seen leaving with Murayama and heading into town to run errands for the parents. However, their peaceful walk was interrupted by a couple goons.

Thug #1: What do we have here? A wimp and his little girlfriend?

Thug #2: You guys wanna have some fun?

Thug #3: Let's do it!

F/n: Hey! Don't talk like that, that's just sick.

Thug #2: Oh, we have a tough one here guys. That'll make it even more fun.

Murayama: Can you please leave us alone!?

Thug #1: Tough girl, huh? That'll make this even more fun~.

And with that, they effortlessly kicked F/n to the ground and two of them held him down. After that, they dragged the two to an alley, where more thugs were waiting. And then....

The most messed up thing occured. The thugs...transformed into some grotesque creatures, ones that instantly struck fear into their two victims.

Thing #1: You boys ready?

Thing #2: Hell yeah! Let's make this bitch scream~.

Seeing his friend break out in tears, F/n desperately struggled but the two effortlessly holding him down were sadistic and laughed at his feeble attempts. Even tears came out his eyes at this point.

F/n: NO! PLEASE STOP!

And then....

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~ Inside F/n's Mind ~

F/n was seen in a mysterious dark place. Things were dead silent until....

???: I don't care what you say! This boy's carcass is mine!

???: Just wait and see! This is my next incarnation and I know he can overcome you!

???: *laughs* Sure, just wait and see! The name Amon will prevail!

F/n was confused at who these people were, but he sure knew that it was him they were referring to him. Then in an instant, the demon charged right at him. F/n was consumed by fear, unsure of how to react....

But, it then turned into something different, something demonic!

~ Back To Reality ~

Something had overtaken F/n and before the demons even noticed....

F/n snapped and violently threw the ones holding him down over his shoulder, ripping off arms in the process. Yellow blood covered F/n and the demons saw his face.

F/n didn't say a word and began his transformation.

After that intimidating roar, the demons attacked, only for F/n to begin his violent killing frenzy, ripping apart and crushing the bodies of the demons present.

While these actions transpired, Murayama just watched, scared but relieved at the same time. And when the opposing demon breathed fire on the remaining demons, it turned to her and (as she feared the worst), it smiled at her in the inferno.

Then....

The screen faded to black on the flames and the smiling demon.
