Out and away
She looked in the mirror and sighed, 'sometimes I wish he would just see me…'. She made a mental check in her mind and then started to leave her dorm room.
"Hey, do you mind if I borrow your notes?" A blue haired girl with a yellow sweater had a questioning look in her eyes.
"Sure Kurumu, here." She handed over some papers that looked like math.
"Thanks Yukari-chan, ja ne." Kurumu winked and left with a smile on her face.
"No problem…" Yukari looked at where the succubus was at with jealously. 'sometimes I wish I was her age so I could at least compete with the others for his affections…' She looked at the path and continued walking.

He got out of bed, still tired from last minute cramming. 'I hope I can get some time to myself before the test… Miss Kagome's tests will kill me one of these days…' He got out a fresh uniform and then showered, dressed, and ate breakfast. 'I have to keep my strength up if I'm going to be drained every morning…' He left his dorm room and started to leave the building.
"Hey Aono, did 'ya hear? We have a new student coming in, an american." Ururu Kenji had a humorous look in his eye.
"An american?" Tsukune had a curious look in his eyes.
"Yeah, I wonder what kind of monster he is…" Kenji looked thoughtful.
"If he doesn't show it, Kuyo might make him show it… just another fight on campus." 'one I won't be in.' He left the building and made his way up the path to see a pink haired girl with a choker that had a cross on it. She waived as he walked up.
"Umm… Tsukune… could I have some of your blood? I didn't have time for breakfast and…" She had a blush on her face as she was bringing the tips of her fingers together in a nervous manner.
"Uhhh… sure Moka…" He moved his neck and she bit in and sucked greedily as he let out a yelp of pain.
"What are you doing!" Kurumu shrieked as she came upon the scene, anger flowing off of her like a waterfall.
"It appears like she is getting her pint for the day." Yukari looked at both of the people she admired.
"I hate it when she does that… but she is a vampire." A voice came from nowhere.
"Mizore, on this point I agree with you." Kurumu looked at the violet haired girl in odd stockings.
"If he is anemic, how can I bear his child when he has no energy?" Mizore looked at him and shifted the lollipop stick in her mouth. Right before Kurumu attacked Mizore, two washtubs appeared over their heads, knocking some sense into them.
"We have fifteen minutes to get to class." Tsukune looked at his watch and groaned, Miss Nekonome would make them stand outside with the water buckets again if they were late.
The group left for their classes.

He looked at the paper in his hands and was completely confused. 'why the hell did my parents send me here? Oh well, when life hands you lemons, make lemonade…' He bumped into another student and just kept going.
"Hey you!" The other guy had an annoyed look on his face, not sensing any yokai coming off of him, took him for an easy target. Grabbing him by the shoulder and spinning him around.
"You say your sorry."
"Listen buddy, I really don't wanna fight, I'd rather just get to class, and get the first day over with." The new guy had his hands in the air trying to diffuse the situation.
"I'll tell 'ya what, I'll just take it out of your hide!" He hit him as hard as he could, and since he still had a hold on the new guy, he didn't go flying. Instead he heard the sound of his fist breaking every bone in his own hand.
"And this is why I don't like fighting…" The new guy looked to the gathering crowd as if asking for help.
"Dude…. Did he just break his hand hitting that gaijin?" A random student had an awed look on his face and nervous twitch in his voice.
"I think so… that man is a dream." A random girl looked away with a blush.
"Alright people, break it up!" A new voice shouted above the murmurs. A guy in a long black coat walked up with a group of people similarly dressed.
"What is going on here?" The guy in the long black coat with blond hair asked with a steely gaze.
"I was just trying to get to class, and this guy tries to pick a fight with me." The new guy had a sincere look on his face. When he didn't get an ounce of yokai off of the new guy, the guy in the long black coat narrowed his eyes.
"What kind of monster are you?"
"…huh?" The new guy looked confused. The crowd now dispersed, and only black coated people there,(except for the other student that broke his hand) the black coated leader smiled a feral smile. And then the new guy went up in flames.
xXXx
Gin looked below and just shook his head, he watched the flames die down expecting to see a pile of ash. Instead he saw a now nude boy there with an annoyed look on his face.
"Oook… now I have to get a new uniform." He turned around to leave when found his hand held by a sticky substance.
"I don't think your going anywhere…" A silky smooth voice came from a female holding the end of the sticky rope.
"Actually, I think I do." He walked away, dragging her along with. Gin smiled and chuckled. The look on Kuyo's face was priceless.
xXXx
Kuyo looked on as Keito was being drug behind the gaijin. "I sense no yokai coming off of him, but he is dragging Keito like she is a ragdoll…and he wasn't even burnt from the flames I hit him with…" Kuyo had a serious look on his face.
"You didn't answer the question, nor did I give you leave. What kind of monster are you?" At this the new guy turned around with a blasé expression.
"For the first question, I'm a mutant; as for the second frell you, I'm getting a change of clothes and getting to class." The new guy had a serious look on his face. Keito gave a tug that was pointless. The new guy ripped the spider-silk off and continued walking.
"He is going to pay…" Keito had a embarrassed expression on her face.
"He is more powerful than any yokai I have ever seen…" Kuyo had a thoughtful look on his face. "He had no fear when he faced me and the school police…lets see how he fares against the troll…" Keito had seen that look on Kuyo's face before. "He's thinking about adding him to the police…"

Tsukune breathed a sigh of relief; they had made it in time for class, which meant no buckets.
"We have a new student joining us today, please make him feel welcome." Miss Nekonome had a smile on her face. When the class degenerated into its usual thing, Miss Nekonome started her lecture on Japanese classics. Halfway through the lecture there was a knock at the door, it was answered by Tsukune. "This must be the american…"
"Hi, I'm Class Representative Aono Tsukune, and whats your name?" Tsukune smiled as he spoke english and took the sheet from him.
"I'm Arthur Thompson, glad to meet'cha, now where's my seat?" Arthur had an annoyed look on his face.
"Well we all speak Japanese here, if you need any help, I'm here…" Tsukune smiled as Arthur took out a pocket dictionary that tourists usually had.
"If something comes up that the book can't handle, I'll consult 'ya." Arthur smiled as he entered the classroom, Miss Nekonome smiled as the new student entered.
"Please introduce yourself." She had a smile on her face. With a sigh Arthur got up in front of the class and took out his dictionary, and in very bad Japanese introduced himself. After the snickers and chuckles subsided, a girl in the back raised her hand.
"What's your favorite band?" After he translated it he sighed again.
"Metallica, Greenday, Aerosmith, Smashing Pumpkins, and one composer, Yoko Kanno." He had a blasé expression.
"Are you an otaku?" One of the guys asked. After translation…
"Yes."
"Is that all the questions?" He looked over the class. When none were forthcoming, Miss Nekonome pointed him to a seat. He nodded and took it.

By the time class was over Arthur walked out with a headache. "At least I'm slowly picking up the language…" He bumped into a student.
"Sorry, I'm not looking to pick a fight." He had his hands in the air to diffuse the situation.
"Its all right, no harm no foul." The black haired girl in regulation uniform smiled as she spoke perfect english.
"Lemme guess, English is a required course over in these parts?" He had an annoyed look on his face.
"Actually…yes it is, but you are grasping Japanese rather well!" She smiled.
"Thanks…as you know, I'm Arthur Thompson, and you are?" He smiled.
"I'm Ichigo Sakura, but you can call me Sakura-san." She smiled.
"Whats your next class?" He had a questioning look in his eye.
"Math with Kagome-sensei, do you have math next as well?" She asked.
"Yes…with the same teacher…is she rough?" He looked like he was inwardly praying that she was easy.
"She is…adamant about math." She saw his face look down.
"Math is my worst subject…ah well I'll walk 'ya there if 'ya like?" He smiled as she giggled.
"Ok…" They walked together to their next class.
