Summary: Sakura Haruno is brought over to Assiah by Rin Okumura's deceased mother in hopes of protecting him from his father, Satan. In order for Sakura to survive in Assiah, she was granted the Pink Flame. The pink flame is Rin's mother's remaining life force combined with Satan's powers. With a sudden new power and surrounds, will Sakura actually go along with the plan at hand, or try to find a way home?
Chapter 1: Introduction! The Soft Pink and Dark Blue Flames?
My son…is in…Danger…I must…P-Protect him…from….
"Asuma-sensei!" A pinkette greeted as she ran towards the older man. "Hello!"
"Oh, Sakura." The man responded as he smiled with cigarette tucked between his lips. "What's up?"
"Have you seen Hinata anywhere?" Sakura asked as she tucked a lock of long pink hair behind her ear.
"No I haven't sorry." Asuma replied as he stuffed his hands in his pockets. "Why?"
"Oh. Well, I have some girl talk I need to have with her about Kurenai-Sensei." Sakura explained as she pulled out a pregnancy book. "Is it your child, Asuma-sensei?"
"W-W-W-Wha—!" Asuma stammered as the cigarette in his mouth fell out. "H-H-H-How did you K-Know?"
"Dummy, I'm a medical ninja now." Sakura taunted as she pulled out her new medical-nin licence. "And it just happens to be that Kurenai-sensei is my first patient!"
"Ugh…I didn't want anyone to know…" Asuma sighed as he took a cigarette pack from his pocket and started to light a new cigarette. "You know… Like a surprise."
"Well don't worry." Sakura reassured as she tucked the pregnancy book and license back in her bag. "Only the hospital and I know. Well, that is until I tell Hinata."
"Eh…Do you have to tell her then?" Asuma asked as he scratched the back of his head.
"Yep, Hinata is Kurenai's student after all. Don't worry, I won't tell Kiba or…" Sakura began.
"…Shino?" Asuma asked as he completed her sentence, and Sakura laughed.
"Oh…Right. Sorry." Sakura apologised, but not towards Asuma, but towards Shino wherever he may be. As she begun to walk away, she lifted a hand of farewell. "Well, Asuma-sensei. I'll be on my way now. See you!"
"Bye and good luck finding Hinata." Asuma added as he raised a hand to wave. In a swift motion Sakura leapt from the ground and onto the roof of an unsuspecting apartment.
"Hinata, Where are you?" Sakura said in a frustrated sigh. Running absentmindedly throughout the city, she soon heard the distinct battle cry of the girl she was looking for. "There you are!"
"S-Sakura!" The long dark haired girl replied, as she ceased her attacks on a defenceless tree. "What's wrong?"
"Kurenai-sensei wants to talk to you!" Sakura informed as she walked towards the tree Hinata was at. It seems like the tree got quite the amount of damage. "Wow Hinata! You've gotten even better at fighting!"
"Y-You think so?" Hinata asked as she scratched her cheek with a finger bashfully. "Thanks."
"No problem!" Sakura replied as she begun to walk back towards the village. Hinata jogged besides Sakura.
"What does Kurenai-sensei want with me?" Hinata asked as she wiped her swear covered forehead. "Is she alright?"
"Yes she's fine." Sakura assured. "But she does have a little surprise for you."
"A surprise?" Hinata asked as she pondered the thought. Just what could it be?
"Kurenai-sensei, y-y-your PREGNANT?" Hinata yelped in surprise as she rose from her seat.
"Yes she is." Sakura replied on Kurenai's behalf while she laughed at her student's reaction. "They say it's been… 1 week at most, right Kurenai-sensei?"
"Yes it's been about that long…" Kurenai replied still laughing as she patted her abdomen. "Asuma and my child."
"I-I never knew!" Hinata cried in joy as she gripped her sensei's hand. "Congratulations Sensei!"
"Thank you Hinata." Kurenai replied as she wiped away Hinata's tears. "Now now, why are you crying?"
"It's because I'm so happy!" Hinata replied as the tears began to fall even harder. Sakura walked up to Hinata and placed a gentle hand on her shoulder.
"Hinata, please don't tell anyone?" Sakura asked as she grinned. "I promised Asuma-sensei that I would keep it a secret."
"But of course!" Hinata replied as she swung her head up to meet Sakura's. "I won't tell anyone!"
"Ahaha, Thank you Hinata, Sakura." Kurenai thanked as she patted the seats next to her. "Let's talk, just us girls?"
"That'll be great!" Sakura agreed as she took the seat to the left while Hinata took the seat to the right.
"Are you girls interested in anyone at this time?" Kurenai asked as she reached for a glass of warm water.
"That…" Hinata sighed as she lowered her head. "…Is painfully obvious for me, isn't it?"
"Well I'd like to hear it come from your mouth for once." Kurenai replied as she took a sip of her warm drink.
"Well, it's Naruto-kun…" Hinata answered as her cheeks began to blush. "But I haven't seen him for over a year…"
"He's off training with Jiraiya isn't he?" Kurenai asked as she continued to drink.
"Yes, He'll be back in about a half a year more." Sakura spoke as she fiddled with her hair. "Hinata, with your hair that long, he won't be able to take his eyes off of you."
"W-What?" Hinata gasped as she combed through her hair. "N-No, that…"
"Sakura your hair has grown out as well." Kurenai pointed out as Hinata sighed thankfully. "It's just below your shoulders now isn't it?"
"Yes it is..." Sakura replied as she pulled gently on a thread of hair. "Just above the waist."
"Sakura, are you planning on cutting it short again?" Hinata asked as she freed her hair of her own grasp. "I think it looks lovely just the way it is."
"Well, It's a nuisance when healing people," Sakura answered, "You have to wear a net in your hair all the time."
"Oh, I see." Hinata said with a disappointed sigh.
"Hinata, are you growing your hair out for Naruto?" Kurenai questioned as she put her drink down.
"I..uh…" Hinata hesitated before placing a hand on her chest. "Not just for Naruto."
"What else are you growing it for?" Sakura asked as she stopped fiddling with her own hair.
"I want to grow." Hinata answered while looking Sakura straight in the eyes. "I want to change, not just for Naruto, but for my Sake as well. I cannot be protected forever."
"That's my girl!" Kurenai grinned as she placed a supportive hand on her student's shoulder. "I can't wait to see the final product!"
"Kurenai-sensei…" Hinata sobbed, while allowing herself to be congratulated. "Thank you…"
"Heh, that's what I'm here for!" Kurenai responded as she rubbed Hinata's head affectionately. Turning her attention to Sakura, her head was also rubbed. "As for you Sakura, do you have an ambition?"
"Well, I…" Sakura began before halting. Kurenai and Hinata sent her a questioning look before the room's door burst open.
"Sakura-chan!" A young paramedic yelled as he searched frantically for the pinkette. Once his eyes were on her, he grabbed her hand and began to run out the door. "I'm sorry Kurenai-sensei and Hinata-nii, I need to borrow Sakura-chan for a minute!"
"Kyoya-Tan?" Hinata yelled as she began to rise to her feet before Kurenai grabbed her arm.
"It must be an emergency, leave them be." Kurenai commanded before placing a hand on her mouth. "Could you help me get to the washroom? It seems I have morning sickness."
"Alright." Hinata replied before helping her up and down a long corridor.
"Kyoya, what's wrong?" Sakura asked questionably as she allowed herself to be pulled down the busy hospital hallways.
"A woman… She keeps calling out your name." He replied before making a sharp turn to his right.
"Who's this woman?" Sakura asked as she stumbled from the sharp turn. "Is it someone I know?"
"I'm not sure, we don't know her origins at all." Kyoya answered as he slid open a hospital room door. "Here she is."
"Sak-u-ra…" The woman groaned as she bled on the hospital bed. "SAKURA!" The woman shrieked before bleeding even more.
"What… is happening to this woman?" Sakura asked as she tied her hair into a tight ponytail and slipped on a pair gloves.
"Intense bleeding, everywhere." The doctor already tending to the woman replied. "It seems some of the major arteries have combusted!"
"Is this patient saveable Sakura-chan?" Kyoya asked as he stared at the woman. "It's almost like she's possessed."
"I'll try." Sakura replied before grabbing a scalpel from the operating table. "Look Kyoya, I'm going to reconnect the arteries and veins that are almost beyond saving. Can you heal the smaller ones?"
"Yes, of course!" Kyoya responded as he placed his hands in any injured places.
"Sensei, I'm going to extract the blood with special formulated chakra. Could you give her the General anaesthesia? She can't be conscious with this procedure."
"Of course." The doctor replied before grabbing an IV needle and sticking it into the major vein of the arm.
"S-Sa...Sakura?" The woman mumbled as she lifted a trembling hand. The hand emitted a soft light blue light as she continued to cough blood. "It's…too late for me…"
"What are you saying?" Sakura asked as she laid the woman's hand back on the bed. "We have to get you healed."
"No…His father will never…allow it…" The woman coughed as she sat up. "May I ask… your companions to leave? I must talk…to you in absolute secrecy…"
"…Very well." Sakura replied hesitantly as she turned to the two and they left the room. "What is it you want?"
"I… Your name is Sakura Haruno…correct?" The woman asked as she continued to bleed. Sakura nodded questionably before the woman chanted a hymn and a Naginata slowly came out of her palm. "This is Amenonuhoko… This Naginata belonged to the gods Izanagi and Izanami to help create the world's land. Tomoe Gozen is also said to have used this in the Genpei war. I want you to have it."
"Me?" Sakura questioned with a note of suspicion in her voice. "Why?"
"Because… You're the only one I can trust… you are Tomoe's reincarnation…" The woman mumbled as she pushed the Naginata into Sakura's hands. "You must protect… My sons…please….as a sister…for me…Hangaku Gozen's…reincarnation…"
"But I don't even know your sons or even you!" Sakura argued as she tried to push the Naginata back with minimum strength. "Are you hallucinating? Dreaming? It must be the Anaesthesia…"
"No…I'm not…." The woman mumbled once more as she covered her face with a determined look. "My sons…are not of this world… You must find them…Or this world and my world will…meet its inevitable doom…"
"…doom?" Sakura acknowledged as she finally grabbed hold of the weapon. A soft pink flame surrounded the tip of the beautifully decorated Naginata blade. "I'm…just a normal medic nin, there's nothing I could do…"
"This Naginata…has my remaining life…force in it…" The woman coughed as she ignored Sakura's statement. "…and my son's father…Satan…power…"
"Satan?" Sakura exclaimed as she looked at the Naginata once more. It continued to emit a soft pink aura. "You don't mean, Satan god of Hell, do you?"
"Yes I do mean him…" The woman murmured. "He possessed my body while I was pregnant with my sons."
"That is…" Sakura began with a look of sympathy when suddenly the woman threw up at least a litre of blood. Placing a healing hand on the woman's face, Sakura poured healing Chakra into the women's bleeding mouth, nose and eyes.
"Like I said…"The woman cried as she continued to cough up more and more blood. "It's too late for me…" Grabbing a sealing paper from her bag, the woman placed it on the Sakura's arm and chanted another hymn.
"What are you doing?" Sakura screamed as she tried to pull her arm away. "You can't put a seal on me!"
"This really isn't just a seal…" The woman grunted as she continued to hymn. "I will hide the Naginata in your soul. No one but you should posses it." The woman's paper seal melted into Sakura's skin, but the old English markings that were on the paper remained.
"I never agreed to have it!" Sakura argued as she stared at the Naginata being sucked into the circle shaped seal.
"When you need Amenonuhoko's strength, chant this hymn…" The woman began as she placed two fingers in her face horizontally as if she was summoning a jutsu. "I call upon the heavens with thy jewels of faith, and thou holy Naginata of Izanami and Izanagi appear before me…" The woman murmured as she drew her last breath. Finally she collapsed on the bed.
"…" Sakura thought frustratingly as she stared at the seal on her arm. Looking at the back door, she pressed the service button and Kyoya and the Doctor returned. Gasping at the sight they sent Sakura an accusing look.
"What the hell happened here?" Kyoya yelled as he ran towards the deceased woman. "…She's dead?"
"Yes, she is…" Sakura replied in a whisper as she rubbed the seal on her arm. "She left me with such a terrible burden also."
"A terrible burden…?" The doctor asked, but Sakura was already strutting out the door.
"Something I don't want to think about…" Sakura murmured before shutting the sliding door shut. Sakura continued to walk down the hallways as people looked at her fearfully. Wondering why she was receiving such looks, Sakura finally looked down at her simple skirt and top outfit. Oh yeah, I'm covered in blood. With an effortless sigh, she yanked a lab coat from the front desk and slid her arms through the arm holes. When she didn't look as intimidating, one of her coworkers approached, steadily, but confidently.
"S-Sakura-san?" The woman noted carefully as she passed her a handkerchief. "Are you alright?"
"Oh, Minami-san." Sakura acknowledge with a small bow. "I'm alright. I just had some…problems with one of the patients."
"L-L-L-Like you…" The woman began fearfully at the thought of Sakura beating up a patient.
"Eh, No, No!" Sakura replied with a small laugh. "I never intentionally hurt someone when they are in my medical room. My patient was suffering combusted arteries and veins."
"Oh…I'm sorry to hear about that. Unfortunately that situation is almost beyond saving." The woman said with a sympathetic sigh. "That usually only happens when something is wrong with the blood flow or if chakra amounts spirals out of control."
'Satan'
"Sakura-san?" The woman asked as she waved a hand on front of Sakura's face.
"Eh, Oh yes… It's really rare." Sakura replied absentmindedly as her gaze drifted towards the mark on her arm. Would it count…If a demon is what caused it to happen?
"Oh, Sakura-san, it's glad to see you're alright. If you'll excuse me…" Minami began after catching the eye of another co-worker, probably a friend.
"Okay, see you!" Sakura countered with a hand of farewell. Using the handkerchief provided, she used it to wipe the sweat and blood that seemed to gather around her fairly large forehead. Stuffing the hanky into her left lab pocket, Sakura walked slowly out the front entrance of the hospital and in the direction of her home.
Just what is it with the event's that happened today? Sakura thought as she lifted her lab coat an inch so she could reach into her skirt pocket. Pulling out a pair of house keys, she threw them in the air playfully as she thought. Amenonuhoko….The heavenly jewelled spear. Wasn't it a myth made up by people who didn't believe the science that created the world? Why would it… Catching the keys in mid-flight she stuffed them back into pocket and started to look at her arm instead. The seal she was given was planted just below the wrist, probably as a way to show she could summon it at anytime she wanted too.
"I call upon the heavens with thy jewels of faith, and thou holy Naginata of Izanami and Izanagi appear before me…" Sakura murmured towards the seal and the seal emitted a pink glow as the stub of the handle stuck out of her arm. The people around her stared suspiciously.
"Oh crap." Sakura cursed as she pushed the stub back in her arm. When the glowing ceased Sakura sighed thankfully, however he stares never stopped. In fact the number of people staring grew in the numbers. One little girl holding her mother's hand giggled as she used her free hand to point at Sakura.
"Mama look! That girl has pointed ears like a fairy!" The girl giggled as Sakura grabbed her pointed ears out of reflex. "Teehee, she has a tail too!"
"W-W-W-WHAT?" Sakura shrieked as she grabbed her butt. There was a tail and it was waving in the air oblivious to the current events. "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?"
"Inform the hokage! There's been a break in!" One passerby yelled fearfully at a nearby ninja. Without hesitation, the ninja leapt off the ground and towards the hokage tower.
"N-N-Nooo!" Sakura screamed as she ran towards the direction of her apartment. Her newly grown tail continued to sway in the wind as she ran faster than normal. Feeling her canines and ears growing larger by the minute, she grabbed her tail and stuffed it in her skirt.
"Ouch!" Sakura winced as she released her grasp on her tail. "It hurts when I grab my tail…?"
"Kakashi-sensei! She went this way!" A distant voice cried, and Sakura sent chakra to her newly developed ears. With the new advance structure of her ears, her hearing was capable enough to sense just how far away those who were in her pursuit were.
"Wait. Just why am I running away from my own sensei?" Sakura realised as she stopped running. "I think it would be best if I explained…"
"Stop intruder!" Kakashi yelled as he turned the corner. "You are under the Hokage's suspicion!"
"Hey, Kakashi-sensei, It's me Sakura!" Sakura began as she strutted towards her sensei.
"You are…NOT!" Kakashi yelled. "Stop your act, women! It's over for you!"
"What the hell!" Sakura yelled back confused.
Seems like you're in a pinch… I'll help you out, Teehee! …
Sakura's eyes widened at the sudden new voice in her head. "W-Who?"
I'll bring you over to Assiah!
In an instant, soft pink flames surrounded the clueless girl. Sakura's hair fluttered in the air as a pink cherry blossom colored Halo appeared on the top of her head. Her eyes turned a gorgeous aqua blue as her ears and canines grew even larger than they were before. Her tail dug its way out of her skirt and swayed in the air once more, except the tip was emitting a ball of soft pink. The pink flames around the girl spun in a whirlpool motion like ribbons of silk and Sakura began to fade.
"W-What's happening to me?" Sakura screamed desperately as the flames warmed her body. "Assiah? What's that? I don't want to go there!"
Ehh? Too bad, you're already almost there! This is your destiny! Protect the sons of Satan, will you?
"Why meee…." Sakura cried as the last of the flame faded away along with Sakura's existence.
Why am I always dragged into things…?
In Current Assiah.
"The road is unmarked for those without faith…" A man chanted as he ran roof to roof holding a younger man's hand. "The hand of God will cause them to fall from Jacob's ladder!" The man then swung his arm and the things in their pursuit disappeared in an agonizing shriek. However, more and more of them continued to appear.
"Come on, Rin." The man yelled as the approached the buildings ledge.
"Seriously?" The young male complained as the older on took a leap off to the other side. Rin, also jumped, but tripped upon landing. The older man grabbed his hand a helped him keep balanced. They were soon met with a herd of dogs of the undead.
"Stray dogs?" Rin wondered before covering his nose with his sleeve. "They stink!"
"They're ghouls. Demons who possess the dead." The older man explained. "Lucky for you, if this weren't Japan, we'd be beset by ghouls in Human form!"
"There's nothing lucky about this!" Rin argued, but the older man pulled out a grenade like object. "Whoa, is that a bomb?"
"Not to worry." The man replied as he chucked it at the unsuspecting dead ghouls. "It's just holy water."
The holy water containment exploded causing the ghouls to disintegrate and this gave them both the chance to run to the fire exit. When they ran inside they shut the door and sighed.
"It's not exactly easy to babysit at my age, you know." The man sighed as he barricaded the door with his body.
"Who are you calling a baby?" Rin demanded as he raised an accusing fist, but was quickly ignored.
"Now then, let's head home while we can." The man said as he ran down the emergency stairs.
"You mean it's not over yet?" Rin asked, tired of running from the beasts.
"Didn't I tell you?" The man reminded as he turned around to face Rin. "Demons of all species will be coming after you for every kind of reason. The sun is setting, that's when demons are most active."
"Welcome home!" An exorcist greeted as he waited on front of an old church.
"Have you put up all the charms and holy water?" The old man asked as he and Rin ran inside.
"Yes we have!" The exorcist responded before closing the gate behind them.
"Drain holy water into the pipes and on any cracks in the walls, we cannot let anything in here." The older man commanded and the exorcists agreed in harmony. "Astaroth's minions are after us."
Pushing an old statue out of the way, it led down dark stairs until a large red chest was visible. Inserting a key into the keyhole on the chest, a small drawer opened revealing a long ancient looking Katana.
"This is the Demon-Slaying blade called Kurikara." The old man said as if to answer his son's unasked question. "It's a legendary katana passed down since ancient times." The man grabbed the katana gently and showed it to his son. "Your demonic powers were sealed in this Katana by its scabbard."
"My power…?" Rin asked as his apparent father motioned for him to take it.
"This Katana is more important than your own life." Rins father said with a grave tone. Motioning it towards Rin once more, he finally took hold of the weapon. "Never hand it to anyone else. Don't let it leave your side even if you're sleeping." Sending his son one more look of warning, he stared with absolute confidence. "You must never draw this Katana."
"W…Why…?" Rin began as he felt cold sweat trickle down his forehead.
"If you draw it," His father began. "…Your demonic powers will awaken and you will never be human again!" Rin stared at him with accusing eyes before responding.
"Wait, if I'm a demon…Then what about my brother, Yukio?" Rin questioned as suspicion and worry grew in his voice. "Don't tell me…!"
"You and your brother a Fraternal twins." He replied, voice churning into a deep monotone voice. "In your mother's womb, your brother proved to be too weak so the power rejected him."
"Only I…?" Rin feared at the thought of being the only one suffering and the fear that his brother and friends might reject him.
"…Only you inherited the 'Blue Flame'." He said completing his son's question. Soon the sound of an exploding demon was heard outside, but the pair cared not.
"…Did everyone know about this?" Rin asked as his voice began to crack up. "That I'm not human…? That I'm the offspring of a demon…?" His father continued to stare, not knowing what to say.
"Why…Why did you keep such an important thing a secret all this time?" Rin cried, his voice almost pleading.
"I could only raise you if you were human." His father began, "That was the condition, despite the demonic blood flowing through your veins."
"Condition…?" Rin exclaimed, taken aback by his father's ruthless truths.
"I raised you as a human and that's why we didn't tell you anything." He said with full authority. "Nothing of the secrets of your birth, not even your power—." He was cut off when huge explosion was heard upstairs.
"What the hell was that?" Rin stammered as the ground shook. In a swift motion, Rin's father ran up the stairs without any hesitation.
"Come!" He commanded as he continued to run up the flight of stairs. What they saw wasn't expected. Half a truck and approaching ghouls and demons were visible as the whole exorcist team stared at the wreckage. A distinct deep monotone laugh was heard from the truck and soon they're fears were met when they saw the same possessed boy they had encountered before.
"I have come for you, young master…" The teen about Rin's age laughed. Horns, elongated ears, sharp canines and a tail were visible on him and at that moment, they knew for sure that he was possessed once more. "Let's go back to Gehenna…"
The possessed teen then threw an elastic like hand at Rin and grabbed his unsuspecting foot. Yelling out a battle cry, one of the exorcists threw a can of holy water at the teen and he released Rin's foot. Tumbling to the ground, Rin trembled in fear. However, this didn't last long as his father grabbed him and lead him down the stairs they were in a moment before.
"The demon's attacks will weaken once dawn breaks." Rin's father informed, as he placed two supporting hands on his shoulders. "Get out of here and hide somewhere where the demons can't find you."
"Hide…?" Rin argued. "Where would I hide?" Rin's father dug in his pocket for a splint second before handing him a cellphone.
"Take my phone. There's only one number in there." He instructed as he pushed the cellphone into his son's hands. "It belongs to my best friend. Call him as soon as you leave this Monastery." I'm pretty sure he'll protect you…"
"Hey wait—!" Rin yelled before being pushed down the stairs by his own father. The entrance was quickly shut by the time Rin got back to his feet. Running towards the closed entrance he banged the door almost desperately.
"We're not done talking yet!" Rin cried as he hit the entrance over and over again. "Let me out, damn geezer, let me out!" When he suddenly stopped hitting the damaged entrance, his eyes turned glassy as he tried not to cry.
I'm… a demon… The memories flashed through his mind, his memories as a former human and his memories as a child. Being with Yukio and the old geezer… All this time… Was he really a…Demon…?
Dammit… I…I really am a demon…
"Wait… There's so much I still need to know…" Rin mumbled as he placed two firm palms on the bottom of the entrance. "The damn old geezer hasn't told me enough yet!"
Pushing on the bottom as hard as he could, a blue flame emitted softly from his body. With gritted teeth he placed his back on the bottom and pushed as hard as he could. As he let out small frustrated grunts, the blue flame increased. When the entrance finally moved, Rin used his last remaining strength to push.
"God…Dammit!" Rin yelled as he pushed his hardest and the entrance finally fell to its side. Running outside he witnessed the teen, or rather Astaroth transform into something even more hideous than what he once was. Searching desperately for a weapon other than Kurikara, his eye's caught the view of the end of a pitch fork. Running towards it and yanking it off the wall, he turned his attention back to Astaroth and threw it.
"I'm going to tear all your guts out…" The beast warned maniacally, but was interrupted by the pitchfork penetrating his head. He tumbled to the ground in a pained cry.
"I said we're not done talking yet, you damned geezer!" Rin yelled confidently as the monster cried in pain.
"Young master…What in the world…" Astaroth cried as he writhed in pain. Rin's father stomped on the monster's chest as he held up the pendant that was hanging as a necklace around his neck.
"O Lord, bind the millstone around its neck so that it shall never again rise from the depths of Leviathan," He began as the monster cried for him to stop. "Chain it in eternal darkness, where it shall not see nor hear!"
The demon let out one more agonizing scream before disappearing into the pendant while leaving the human host behind.
"…Get the car ready." Rin's father commanded and one of the exorcists began calling a taxi. "Also, put a seal of tetramorph on this boy. Cleanse him in holy water to purify him as well."
"…Wait, shouldn't we treat all your injuries first?" Rin asked as he approached one of the injured exorcists.
"No, the most important thing right now is getting you to safety." Rins father replied as he faced him. "Don't forget, it's you the demons are after."
Surprised at his father's words, he sent him a glare. "Oh? So it's alright if I just disappear then?
"Rin!" His Father argued, but was quickly cut off.
"Fine, is it better if I just left?" Rin asked almost accusingly. "Fine I'll just leave right now!"
As Rin began to walk away, his father ran up and grabbed his shoulder. At this sudden contact, Rin hit his hand away.
"Let me go! You'd throw me away anyway!" Rin yelled as he glared. "I know I've been a problem child all this time…"
"Rin!" His father began once more, but his son would not allow it.
"You aren't even related to me, so stranger's right?" Rin laughed as he continued to glare. "Just admit it! You're tired of pretending we're family! Or maybe you just wanted to play the perfect father just once? Don't screw with me; you're not my father or ANYTHING!" Rin yelled angrily as he clenched his fists as hard as he could.
"DON'T CALL YOURSELF MY FATHER EVER AGAIN!" Rin demanded, but was silenced by a slap across the face. He was slapped by Shiro Fujimoto. The man he once called his father.
"…It's almost daybreak. Hurry and pack up." Shiro murmured as he paid no heed to his throbbing hand. His demand was met with silence for a few moments before Rin finally answered.
"Fine…" Rin replied with a pained expression on his face. As he walked away, Shiro looked at his swelling hand for a few moments before a throbbing pain took over. He fell to the ground grasping and clawing at his own chest.
"Damnit…" Shiro grunted as he gasped in pain.
"Father Fujimoto!" One of the exorcists yelled fearfully as he started to get to his feet.
"Don't come any closer!" Shiro warned, and all the light bulbs in the room popped one by one. "G-Get away from… ME!"
"W-What's going on?" Rin panicked as he stared at the dead lights. When Shiro started to laugh manically, he stared at him.
"Finally…I've got a hold of this body!" A sadistic voice echoed from man still clenching his chest.
"Oy!" Rin questioned worriedly as he ran to the fallen man's side. The man features changed drastically as he grinned as if he were a man who ran away from the mental institute.
"Finally, I could meet you my son…" He began, "Or WHATEVER!" He laughed as he tongue hanged from his mouth like a dog on a hot day. Blue flames exploded around the demon as he laughed his hardest.
"What's wrong with you old man?" Rin yelled as his eyes widened at the sight. An injured exorcist stood from the ground and leaned on a wall.
"He's possessed! Satan has taken over his body!" The exorcist announced.
"Exactly. I'm Satan. God of Gehenna and your biological Father!" Satan grinned as his nose began to bleed. "You can call my Papa if you want." He laughed as his body took weird postures. His tongue continued to stick out as he laughed Maniacally.
"Father Fujimoto!" Another Exorcist exclaimed but was silenced by being set on fire.
"Shut the hell up!" Satan dictated as his tone of voice changed drastically.
"You guys!" Rin yelled worryingly as he began to approach them.
"Don't ruin this toughing reunion…" Satan said as his face began to bleed even harder than before. "I don't have time for that." Tearing off four of his finger's, he let the blood drip on the floor and form the shape of a box. Suddenly demon formed as a gate appeared at his feet.
"I'm too strong for Assiah, so you can't bear my presence for long." Satan informed Sadistically. "Not this man's body, not even your mother."
"What the hell is that?" Rin exclaimed as the Gate began to take its real form.
"Gehenna Gate…" Satan replied. "Let's go back to Gehenna, my son!" He laughed as he approached Rin.
"Don't come near me, Stay away!" Rin screamed as he too summoned his flames.
"Ehe…HAHAHAHAHAHAA!" Satan Laughed as he pointed a finger at the frightened boy. "What is this? Did you just wet yourself?" Satan continued to laugh until it came to a sudden halt. "So Pathetic… Awaken to your powers already." He grabbed Rin's sleeve forcefully as he dragged him towards the gate.
"I'm not a demon, I'm human!" Rin screamed as he struggled from his grasp. Taking a look at a cracked mirror he saw his demonic expression. This is me…? So I really am a…
"You have the blood of Gehenna, although you reside in Assiah. You truly are a remarkable being…" Along with his sword, Rin was thrown on the gate and was quickly being dragged in.
"ah..UwaHHHHHH!" Rin screamed as he saw the tiny creatures climb up his arms.
"HAHAHAHA, What splendid birth cries!" Satan laughed mockingly. "Happy Birthday, My SON!"
"That's not it…"
Grabbing the needle pendant, he stabbed himself through the chest and into the heart.
"He's my son…and you'll give him back…." Shiro demanded in a faint voice.
"Y-You damn Exorcist!" Satan screamed as he fell into the gate's pool of demons. "Taking your own life…What a remarkable exorcist you are…However it's too late. The Gehenna gate will never let go once it's got a hold of you."
"Old man! Get a hold of yourself!" Rin cried as he swam over to his fallen father. "DAMNITTTT!"
"Hey, Daddy." A small voice asked.
"Hm?"
"Why am I so different from everyone else? Am I really a demon's child?"
"No, your not." The fatherly voice replied. "You're a human child."
"Mhn!" The boy replied.
A hand reached under from the Gehenna gate a grabbed a hold of the Kurikara. Rin popped out from under the demon and gasped for air.
"The Kurikara!" Rin realised as he took one last look at his father.
"Stop Rin!" An Injured exorcist warned "Don't you remember what your father told you? If you draw that Katana you'll never be human again!"
Grunting as he pulled himself from under the demons and grabbing hold of the Katana's handle he remembered his Father for the last time.
"Don't die, Old Man!" Rin yelled as he unsheathed his Katana. A blue light arose from the sword causing Rin's whole appearance to change completely. His ears and teeth grew and a tail sprouted from his behind. Two blue orbs floated on his head and on the tip of his tail. He raised his Katana above his head and hit the head of the gate causing a strong blue fire to arise from where he hit. In a moments time, the gate disappeared and Shiro's body was visible. However, Somehow, Rin knew that it was far too late.
"Dad…" Rin cried as he returned the Kurikara back into its casing. His eye's glassed up as he remembered his finally moments with his only father. The tears poured down his cheeks regrettably, but it was soon interrupted by an enormous Pink light.
"What is that?" Another injured exorcist exclaimed as he stared at the large pink flame hovering above Shiro's body. "Don't tell me… an Angel?"
"KAKASHI-SENSEI, YOU IDIOT!" The figure in the pink flame screamed as the flame disappeared. Looking up to see what all the commotion was about, Rin raised a depressed gaze. What he saw wasn't what he expected.
"Eh?" The girl said as she floated in the air for a brief moment, but it was for a brief moment, so in a second she came crashing down. "Ouch…"
Rin and the rest of the exorcists stared at the new foreigner. Pink hair, elongated ears and canines, and a long tail swinging carefree behind her. Was she…
A DEMON?
