Rider + Vampire
(Disclaimer: I don't any of 'Rosario + Vampire' nor anything of 'Kamen Rider', anything else is as original as I could possibly do.)
1) Academy Vampire
Tsukune Aono, age 18, is an average young man with no special skills and a passing grade of B's and C's in high school entering college. But he's used to being average, even though no college would accept him, and then by some stroke of luck he was able to graduate and by some miracle (according to his absent-minded but well-meaning parents) he was enrolled into a college way out in the country.
He has short dark-brown hair and light-brown eyes and is dressed in a light-blue colored standard uniform for the academy he's going to enter soon so he'd make a fresh new start in college life this spring.
Tsukune thought to himself, 'I can't believe my own father would actually believe a nice priest would just happen to be passing by and by some coincidence hands out an application form for some unheard-of college in the middle of nowhere in Japan just for me. I've even tried to tell them that it's a missing item, but they're far too preoccupied. It's a wonder I'm even related to them.'
With no other options, he had to go enroll so he'd really witness college life and by luck he was accepted. Now on the bus, Tsukune had no idea this would be the beginning of the weirdest time of his life.
"So…" says the mysterious bus driver, "entering Yokai Academy, eh?" Tsukune gulps, "Uh… yeah." "I hope you've said all your goodbyes…" Tsukune exclaims, "WHAT?!" the driver chuckles, "Because as soon as we come out of next looooong tunnel you'll see the academy. And it's so scary that perhaps—— you may never see anything again!!" Tsukune is startled, 'WHAA?!'
Hearing his cell phone ring, he picks it up and nervously replies into it "Moshimoshi, Kyou-chan?" On his phone, his cousin's says to him, "Hey, Tsuki! I've heard from Kasumi-Obasan that you're going to enter some college called Yokai Academy. Is it true?" Tsukune sighs and nods, "Yeah." She continues on his phone, "Amazing, my precious is going to attend some mysterious school. I did some research——"
Much to his shock, he lost the connection on his phone just as soon as he enters a very long tunnel. Later, as soon as the bus came out of the bus…
The doors opened, signaling Tsukune to get off. "He-he…" snickers the bus driver, "welcome have arrived, sonny boy." The immediate area looked to be desolate and barren. The only kind of vegetation around was the scraggly trees and some moss that grew on them. The sky was murky and foreboding, with lightning and sounds of thunder, offering no comfort. The most terrifying thing in the scenery was the almost obscene amount of tombstones that were littering the grounds and the sight of bones lining most of them. The next scare was the wildlife of the crows, owls, bats, and probably wolves according to the distant howling. Next to the bus as soon as it stopped is a scarecrow with a jack-o-lantern head with a sign reading 'Yokai Academy'.
"Be careful," said the driver one last time before driving back into the tunnel. Moments after the bus disappeared… "WAIT A MINUTE!" shrieks Tsukune, "What kind of college ground is this?!"
Lightning crashed some more,
"I… I can't believe how creepy this place is…" jittered Tsukune, "it's like that tunnel led to a different world. And I mean completely different!"
Remembering what the mysterious bus driver said, Tsukune gulps but summons some courage to move on, "Okay… this is scary. But Yokai itself can't possibly be as horrifying as that crazy driver claimed it to be."
Slowly, Tsukune walks on into the dark forest, thinking that perhaps it's a hoax. As he walked on, the sky seems to calm down giving some comfort, even the spooky sounds lessened. While nearing the edge of the forest, he spots a massive complex of ominous mansion-like buildings in the distance.
Tsukune then gets nervous, "Could that be… the main campus? From top to bottom, it looks more like a series of haunted mansions merged into a ghost town."
A slight growl from the distance sets him off, "That's it! I've seen enough! I'm going home!"
As he was about to turn to leave, "Huh? What is this?" he stops and bends over to pick up a white-colored stone covered in black gunk. It appears to be square-shaped with frilled wing-like side corners, a circular black gemstone held in with fangs, angled horns on the top corner, and a small triangular point on the center-bottom corner. "At least I can show that she-devil Kyou-chan a souvenir from this trip."
"Watch out!" he heard and he turned to see a girl coming towards him on a bicycle, which screeched to stop. He was frozen in fear and unable to move out of the way, "UWAAAAH!"
CRASH!
"UGH… OW-OW-OW! OW!" moaned Tsukune as he crawled up to stand, finding an upside-down pink bicycle with its wheels whirring. Dazed, Tsukune groans out "I got a hit by a wheeled vehicle. Even my luck isn't that bad. But where'd this bike come from all of a——"
FUP! BING! "OH!"
Feeling something unbelievably soft all of the sudden, Tsukune's line of sight returned to see his hand on the right thigh of a girl. 'Oops! A girl!' gulped Tsukune, unconsciously squishing the girl's thigh accidentally. He also realized he was on top of her when she crashed into him.
The young lady groans, "Ow… I'm sorry… I'm anemic… I got a little dizzy and…" Tsukune gulps "Are y-you okay?"
As she looks up to him, his only thoughts are 'Whoa! She's… CUTE! I have never seen any other girl this beautiful before in my entire life! '
Indeed the girl is; a cute face, lovely long flowing pink hair, eyes like emeralds, creamy skin tone, a slender build, the works. Around her neck is a black leather choker with a metal belt buckle on the left side of her neck, strands of beads dangled around it, and in front is a chain with a silvery rosary with a strange round ruby in the center of the cross.
'Who cares how scary this place is?' sighs Tsukune, then he remembers that his other accident. Also realizing their predicament, the young woman quickly sat up on her knees and placed her hands in front of her skirt. She blushes furiously as Tsukune's hand is now on the other thigh. Tsukune reels backward with a nosebleed, he accidentally touched her thighs.
He tries to get away, exclaiming a series of apologies and explanations of the accident.
"AH! Oh no! Blood!" exclaimed the young woman at the sight of his blood. She pulls out a handkerchief and readies it to wipe away the blood, "H-here…" then she blushes and acts like she's suddenly drugged. "the scent… of blood…" she leans into him, making his heart beat faster. She says quietly, "I'm losing control."
Tsukune thought to himself, 'No way am I this lucky so early. What the heck is going on?'
"You smell nice," she said huskily. Tsukune sniffs her and politely says, "Your smells so wonderful."
"I'm sorry," says the beautiful woman, "but… you see…"
She slowly leaned in to Tsukune some more to…
"I'm a vampire."
GABU-CHUUUUUUUU!
Bite him!
"GYAAAAAAAAAAA!"
Seconds later, after sucking some blood, she removes herself from him and jerks back, "Oh, I'm so sorry!"
"EEEEEEE-GYAAAAA! OH MY BLOOD! GOD, HELP ME! SHE SUCKED MY BLOOD!" screamed Tsukune. He stops to notice something else around his neck, 'Ara? There's no wound. She must've licked the blood off.'
The girl bows and apologizes, "I really am sorry! My name is Moka Akashiya! I'd never dream of doing anything like that… if I weren't a vampire, it'd be less painful."
Tsukune asks, "A vampire? Like afraid of crosses and garlic? That kind of vampire?" Moka nods, "Yes." Then she got into a dream-like state, "and I have to say, you have really delicious blood!" She sighs in a satisfied way.
Tsukune chuckles lightly, until he noticed the item he found is no longer anywhere in the location they're in! "Huh?" he dashes around, looking for it, and then exclaims, "It's gone!" Moka was confused, "Gone? What's gone?"
Realizing that if he told Moka that if he has dropped some strange stone when she crashed into him, she may laugh at him, Tsukune had to make an excuse. But he knew he had to ask first, "Moka-san, if I were to tell you that it was a strange stone that I found went missing just when you crashed into me, would you laugh at me?" She shook her head, "Only if you admit that it was a friendly joke. I'm sorry I made you lost it." Tsukune sighs, 'She's really polite.'
With both getting up to their feet, Tsukune and Moka began walking towards their destination again. Nervously looking at the beautiful girl beside him, Tsukune noticed that she was wearing a uniform similar to his, save for the fact it was meant for girls. He says, "I take it that you're a Yokai Academy freshman like me too." She smiles and nods, "Yes."
Gathering their things, they later venture toward the campus, everything looks much friendlier to Tsukune with each step.
"Ano…" shyly spoke Moka, "Now that you know I'm a vampire… do you hate our kind?" Tsukune gulped nervously but then shook it off with slightly nervous laughter, "Well, I don't think so. I mean it'd be amazing to meet another vampire like you. It's unique, really."
He then quickly thought to himself, 'Maybe she was just giving me a friendly hickey. She also probably was once someone like one of those outcast/freak patients in that American movie, 'Transylvania 6-5000', which Father watched other 8 years ago.'
Moka smiles brightly, which made Tsukune's heart skip lots of beats, "Thank goodness! Let's be friends! I was worried that things would be so horrible, like me spending the rest of my life being alone like before, but that comes with being new around first times in new places!" Tsukune's heart beats uncontrollably, 'OHH… so innocent yet definitely super-cute!'
He introduces himself, "M-my name is Tsukune Aono." She giddily smiles, "It's nice to meet you, Tsukune! Let's talk again after the commencement ceremony!"
She hugged Tsukune's arm even tighter, making the young man blush even brighter. Tsukune just had to ponder what other crazy things were going to happen at Yokai Academy. 'Gosh!' sighed Tsukune, 'to have actually meet such a girl and make friends with her on my first day of college… SUPER-LUCKY!"
Tsukune had lost Moka during the entrance ceremony, but he got over it. Finding his classroom was very easy. He had quickly discovered that people weren't looking at him at all. Still, no one really went out of their way to talk to him. That was fine by the shy young man. He seems far too mediocre to be communed with. Entering his classroom (1-3), he picked out a desk that was out of the way so no one would seek him out for anything.
As more and more students filed in, an older woman wearing bright clothes, a round kitty bell around her neck, and glasses entered the room with a wave. She was a pretty woman with short blonde hair and what looked like cat ears on her head. Waving lazily behind her, a yellow-furred tail was connected to her. Tsukune had to admit that she was very cute and appealing, even if it wasn't out loud.
"Welcome, everyone, to Yokai Academy!" she cheered, bringing equal cheers from the students on the classroom. "I'll be your homeroom teacher, Miss Shizuka Nekonome!"
Tsukune remained quiet through the cheering. He had to admit that it was nice that the school seemed like such a nice place. The scenery could use a little bit of work, but the people didn't seem to be too bad.
"Now, as I'm sure you're all aware," Ms. Nekonome continued, drawing a pointer. "This college is a school for monsters!"
DOOM!
'MONSTERS?!' thought Tsukune, 'Oh no! I must've landed into hell by accident!'
Tsukune's aware about monsters that it was usually in their nature, according to the movies and books, to have preyed on humans. If they so much go to suspect him of human blood, he'd be in deep trouble right about now, so it's best to lay low and silent at the moment.
"So, like it or not, humans run the world!" Ms. Nekonome continued. "That means we monsters, in order to survive, have to learn to co-exist with them, every one of our tribes and every other race too. That is the mission of this school! Peaceful co-existence with the humans!"
'OH NO!' thought Tsukune, 'Oh no! I don't fit in, I'm human!'
"That brings us to rule #1!" the catty teacher continued. "You will retain your human appearance at all times!"
Tsukune felt a wave of fear at that announcement. Even though everyone around him look human, he began to subconsciously imagine them as shadow creatures looking hungrily at him.
"Does everyone understand this?" Ms. Nekonome asked seriously. "This is our first key of survival among the humans. To practice the art of disguise, please do not reveal your true nature, even to your fellow students. With the exception of special conditions, you cannot take your true form."
"Oi sensei," asked one of the students "can't we just eat all the puny humans?" He had long brown hair that reached his neck, a muscular body, some piercings on his face, and a row of earrings on his left ear. "And in the case of beautiful girls, better to molest them. Those rules are boring anyway."
Tsukune was shocked when he heard this. This sounded like something an unsavory barbarian would say, even if he was human. He slowly turned his head to see who'd spoken. He looked at the student who was smirking while licking his lips.
"Oh, that's just silly, Komiya-kun!" Ms. Nekonome sighed. "You don't have to worry about humans here though. All the faculty and fellow students are monsters just like you. This school exists behind a special barrier so no humans have ever seen it. Well, seen it and lived."
Komiya scoffs, "Still smells like a human's around here."
'Oh no!' shivers Tsukune, 'I think I'm a dead man either way! Father, that wasn't a sign from above, it was a lure into the afterlife. If I die here, I hope I can haunt you and make your life a living hell! More to the point, I've got to find a way out of here! '
A sudden sliding sound that went with the opening of the door suddenly sounded off. It cut off the rather grim conversation.
"I'm sorry!" a familiar voice to Tsukune apologized. "I got lost in the halls after the welcoming ceremony…and…sorry I'm late!"
"That's okay," Ms. Nekonome smiled reassuringly. "Just take an empty seat anywhere." Ms. Nekonome thought to herself, "Oh, what a polite cutie."
Stepping into the classroom, Tsukune immediately recognized the beautiful Moka Akashiya. He blushed again while all the male students in the room began to gape at her beauty. The way she walked down the aisles of desks made her look almost like a model walking down the strip. She certainly had the face and figure for such an occupation if she wanted one.
"W-who is that?" one boy gasped. "The silky hair, the beautiful eyes," added another. "That can't be a disguise," a third gasped. "She's too…too," "BEAUTIFUL!!" the general male populace of the room cheered. One exclaims, "Suddenly my life here is worthwhile!"
Moka seemed to be a little surprised at how the entire classroom seemed to be reacting to her entry. It didn't even occur to her that she was really that beautiful. Still, she continued down the aisle toward an empty desk. As she got closer, she noticed a familiar head of hair.
"Hmm?" she blinked. Leaning close, she managed to peek at the blushing face of the boy who owned the head of hair. "Tsukune?" "H-hai, Moka-san?" Tsukune mumbled.
"It IS you, Tsukune!" Moka cheered happily. Lunging forward, she wrapped her arms around the young man, making him blush an atomic red. "We're in the same classroom! Isn't it great?"
Tsukune was too busy blushing and shocked at the same time to answer her. Even if he did, he didn't have much of a breath to do it. Moka was squeezing him too tightly. As the reunion was going on, the other students in the room were making their own comments.
"Huh?! Who is that guy?!" "How does he rate a hug from her?!" "How does a weirdo like that know her?!"
Obviously the males in the room weren't happy at how Moka was being so friendly with Tsukune. Saizou was also giving Moka a lecherous look as well. He'd just found his target. The guy was of no consequence and would be collateral damage anyway.
When class had ended, Moka had immediately wanted to explore Yokai Academy. Not having much else to do, and being too shy to turn Moka down, Tsukune had become her exploring buddy. Most of the time had been the poor boy getting dragged around by the excitable vampire.
"Wow," she smiled. "The main halls are so clean! Neat!"
"Um…y-yeah," Tsukune mumbled.
While Moka was taking in all the sights in the school with sparkling eyes and happy smile, Tsukune was too dazed to notice the people around them. 'Wha-what is this?' thought Tsukune lost in his thoughts 'The whole day felt like a nightmare… but suddenly, it's turned into a wonderful dream. Yeah, who's afraid of monsters anyway?'
Walking along the school hallways again, Moka and Tsukune were subjugated to the lustful/hateful stares of the males in the general vicinity. Moka was again oblivious to the looks, but Tsukune was all too aware of who they were aimed at.
Males were all stopping and staring at Moka as she went past them. It was obvious that they were lusting after her from the way they stared at her. "W-woah." "She's beautiful!" "What a babe!" "What a hottie!" "Must… date her!" "Who's the guy with her?" "Who cares?!" "If he gets in my way, he's dinner!"
Tsukune shivered as he heard the subtle threats against him. He really didn't want this to be his college life. Being friends with Moka was good since she was really nice. Still, being ostracized because of whom he was friends with wasn't something he wanted to go through. He had enough of that going through elementary, junior, and high school.
"They're right you know," said another familiar if not creepy voice. Tsukune snaps out of it to discover that it's the brute, Saizou Komiya. The creepy disguised monster was looking at Moka, "Moka-chan… my name is Saizou Komiya. Remember it."
The male students are spooked by Saizou, seems like to Tsukune that he's the type of monster one mustn't mess with. More proof was displayed when Saizou picks up Tsukune by the collar of his jacket, leaving the poor boy's feet to dangle in midair. Moka gasps in horror at the sight of this. Tsukune remembers him as the student with a taste for humans.
The other students grew fearful too, Tsukune heard their frightened comments. "Oh no! It's Saizou Komiya!" "One of the real monster mashers?!" "Yeah, an ill-mannered suspicious rogue." "He's molested many girls!" "He caused so much trouble in the human world that they sent him here, like it's some kind of reform school."
Throwing Tsukune to the ground, Saizou looms over Moka, "Wouldn't you like me; far superior to that sort of scummy guy? Why don't we go off somewhere, babe; just the two of us having some fun?"
Moka is less than interested in the creep, "EEP!" She grabbed the fallen Tsukune and ran away!
Saizou cracks his knuckles, "I'll take it as a no. Oh, well… enjoy him… while he lasts."
Back with Moka and Tsukune, from under a staircase, Tsukune returns to his feet as Moka pants for breath. Moka encouragingly smiles, "Whoo! That was kinda scary, huh?" Tsukune nods, "Yeah." "Are you all right, Tsukune?" "Uh… yeah! I'm fine! I'd hate to find out what kind of monster that guy was, if the rules allowed it."
"But…" says Tsukune, "why are you being so friendly to me, Moka? We've just met today, I never really talked to a woman before aside from my mother and cousin, and where I come from I'm just another worthless average guy…"
Moka grabbed Tsukune's hands and said directly, "Don't say that! You're hardly average or worthless or anything to me, Tsukune!" Tsukune blushed, "Huh?"
Moka blushes, "Besides… you… already let me suck your blood! Tee-hee!" Tsukune dropped to the ground, "GUH!"
Moka continued, "Be proud of yourself! Your blood is Grade A in my book! Way more delicious than any I've drunk out of transfusion bags! Full-bodied, sweet-flavored, mineral-balanced; everything's perfect!" Tsukune got up and shrieked, "I'm a person, not a bottle of wine for vampires!"
Moka sighs, "Also, truthfully… y-you were… my first, Tsukune." Tsukune gasps and thinks to himself, 'Usually, people say that about the first person they've slept with or… or kissed.' Moka enthusiastically smiles, "The first person I really sucked blood from! And a girl never forgets her first time!"
Tsukune blushes, "Moka-san…" Moka palms him, "Oh, stop! I'm embarrassed!" WOMP! She rushes off toward the doors for more exploring, unaware of Tsukune tailing behind, recovering from the blow. 'She's strong."
Smiling, Tsukune and Moka headed out to explore even more of the school. Tsukune was amazed at how much energy Moka had. If he'd run away, he'd be really unhappy. He rarely stayed out after school, despite what his cousin Kyouko tried to do to convince him otherwise. Taking a break on a bench, they get a few drinks from an almost spooky looking juice vending machine; iced tea for Tsukune and tomato juice for Moka (which happens to be a favorite of hers next to Tsukune's blood).
Walking past a dorm, which is obviously the jocks' dorm due to the loud party sounds, Tsukune hears someone from said place call out "weakling!" repeatedly. Moka looks around curiously and asks Tsukune, "Where is he?" Tsukune gulps, "I think they were talking about me." Moka disbelieved it, "No way." Tsukune pulls her hand, "Let's just get out of here, because I think otherwise."
Tsukune was enjoying the sweet normal moments with Moka, almost as if he was dating her. She introduces him to the dormitories they're going to be staying in, much to his fright they appear to be haunted, which is, to him, disturbingly quite the theme of the entire college campus. Despite his thoughts, Moka finds it dreamy as it is in a way more like a monster's dream.
"Oh yeah!" says Moka, "By the way, what type of monster are you?" Tsukune gulps then thought of the best excuse, "Actually, the rules state specifically that you're not supposed to do so." Moka giggles, "Sorry, earlier I didn't know that there was such a rule, so forget about it!"
He says to her, "Once I've heard my father tell me the story of a vampire that tried to destroy the world almost 25 years ago, but I've passed that off as a scary bedtime story." Moka's face cringed, Tsukune noticed this and asks, "Was it true?" Moka sadly nods, "Yes… it was such a dark day for many worlds, including the humans and the monsters. You shouldn't have shook it off as some silly bedtime story, he was looking for something and went mad until he met his end at the humans' hands. He was said to be even scarier than me."
Tsukune says, "Although I already know you're a vampire, still… to me you appear very much like a normal human." Moka presents the cross-like charm over her chest (giving Tsukune somewhat of a view), "Listen, if this rosary over my chest is removed from the seal… I'll become reeeeally scaaaaary."
Tsukune thinks back to the best of his knowledge, "Rosary's are sort of Christian artifacts that are supposed to drive away unholy, right?" Moka nods, "Yes, but this special one locks up my vampire powers, I don't like causing trouble and because of this I can keep my powers in check."
Tsukune gulps in shock, 'She's serious! Even though she's different from humans like me and appears so cute and gentle, she's a vampire.'
Moka sighs, "This is basically a sealing amulet in actuality. Even I cannot get it off." Tsukune says, "Even still, that guy got what he deserved 25 years ago but Moka is Moka even in you're in your true form! So it'll be all right." Moka glomps Tsukune, "Thank goodness!"
Then Moka says, "Of course, even with her powers locked up… a girl still needs blood." She bites him again. CHOMP! "OOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW!"
Later the next morning… as soon as Tsukune prepares to get away as quickly as possible, just soon as after he delivers his withdrawal notice, 'I wrote the letter of withdrawal to the principal… but for some reason I just can't bring myself to deliver it. Should I give up or stay? I don't want to be separated from Moka-san…'
A familiar voice calls out to him, "Yo, wait up, loverboy." Tsukune turns to find Saizou leaning against a tree and then corners him at a concrete wall. Malevolently, Saizou growls "You spent an awful lot of time with Moka. How dare you do so! What is your true form?"
Knowing the campus' rules and how he's going to die if the fact that he's human gets out, Tsukune had to think of something to defend himself, "I think I'm related to… the Tsugiri Vampire Tribe." Saizou drops him and punches the wall behind the victim, displaying his awesome might!
Everyone around them clapped softly, just to stay on the stronger one's good side.
Saizou growls, "A Tsugiri Vampire? So you do belong with them, the other vampires are nothing but really powerful immortals compared to those weak-spirited lower-classed fiends!" Saizou's hand expanded and displayed claws, "Weaklings like you are not even worth my time!" Tsukune was more surprised that he came up with a real tribe of vampires than how the thug's hand transformed.
Saizou turned and left, "Don't let me catch you near Moka again. If you so much as talk to her, you're a worm feast."
Tsukune's mind was made up; 'That does it! This place and every person in it is hazardous to my health!' he marched his way toward the entrance he came in by. Moka pops out of nowhere and hugs him, "Tsukune! We'd better hurry or else we're gonna be tardy for being late!" Tsukune looks at Moka and sadly sniffs before continuing on his choice of destination.
Moka was worried, "Tsukune? What's wrong? Are you sick? Why do you have your luggage with you?" As tears crept out from his eyes, Tsukune says, "I don't belong here… it's too scary here, I'm leaving for the human world and staying there."
Moka was shocked, she held onto him and angrily states "No! You can't go to some human campus! I hate humans!" Tsukune's world came crashing around him as he paled. She continued, "I attended human schools until high school and yet I was isolated! No one believed in monsters, I felt like a freak! I even thought that it'd be better if I didn't exist." She smiles, "It was tough, but then you said that I was all right even though you found out I was a vampire. Now… for the first time, I know I'm not really alone!"
Tsukune's face still darkened with contained unhappiness. Moka takes Tsukune's hand and says, "You can't go, Tsukune! We'll get through this together!" Tsukune didn't move, no matter how hard she pulled. "Moka-san," carefully asks Tsukune "do you really hate humans?" "What's wrong?" she asked. "You look pale, Tsukune." She reached out to him but he backed away, averting his eyes.
"What you said confirms my decision to leave immediately… I'll never belong anywhere. I can never really fit in," he said.
Now Moka was worried, "Tsukune? What are you talking about?" he asks, "Moka-san, what if… what if I told you I was human; those 'monsters' that you hate? Would you still stop me?" She gasps in shock. Tsukune says to her, "I'm a human. I got into this school by mistake!"
Moka then tries to protest "But you can't be! I mean-" her words got caught in her throat. She'd said she hated humans. "So. Now you know," says Tsukune, "that's how you look at me. I was right all along; this isn't the place for me."
Shocked at Tsukune's admittance for a few moments, Moka then realized he was leaving, ran up to him, and gripped at his shoulder to stop him, she cries as she asks him, "Wait! Tsukune… Is it really true? I——" Before she could say anything else, He turns to her one last time and angrily yells out, "Let go! You hate humans! Right? Well, excuse me for befriending a monster!" He then ran off, leaving the only friend he had in the entire college ground.
"Tsukune!" Moka cried out.
Inwardly, Tsukune felt a part of him silently say 'Goodbye' to her while he never looked back.
Tsukune was walking aimlessly with his hands in his pockets. He knew it was just a matter of time before he had to leave. He was not a monster, just a human. Maybe it would be better if he just left. His only friend in the school said she hated humans so what were the chances for someone like him who was human?
Looking at the scarecrow-like sign and then his withdrawal note, Tsukune says "Forget college, now I can go back to my totally average life." Then he remembers her words from one of their last talks together; "For the first time, I know I'm not really alone".
He felt his heart sink, "…but …is this what I really want?" He asks himself why'd he run away and regrets it. He walks up to the sign to find a notice that's stating something really important——
"What? The bus is only here around once a month?" shouts Tsukune in shock. He realizes, "So I cannot get out of here until next month? How on earth will I survive until then?"
Someone crept behind him and said, "You can if you come with me." Tsukune quickly turned to find a dreadlock-haired man dressed in black silk carrying a black rose-shaped box in his hand. The man smiles sinisterly, "You are chosen to join the Magnificence Of New Supremacy To Every Realm."
Tsukune says, "I don't know. I've just left the college grounds, until I've noticed the sign reading that the bus only shows up once a month. This whole thing is too sudden. How will I know that this Magnificence Of New Supremacy—— WAIT A MINUTE! Isn't it initialed to MONSTER?" the man with dreadlocks nods, "Yes, and you're chosen to be a new recruit."
Tsukune, having enough of craziness, angrily questions the stranger, "And should I refuse?" Unfazed, the dreadlock-wearing stranger says, "Golunoids, grab him but not too tightly."
Popping out of thin air, inhuman yet humanoid skeletal creatures with sullen black eyes and pale faces clad in black cloaks were coming out and surrounding the poor young man. They made sounds like "GAAH!" "KUU-KUU-KUU!" "GUH-AHH!" "FUHAAAA!" "HWOOO!" "KHI-KHI-KHI!" "GAU!" and "UWOOOOH!"
Tsukune tensed up, "Okay, now this is hell!"
————
Alone in the forest, Moka sadly kicks pebbles around, feeling sad for emotionally hurting the only friend, "No… it can't be true… I finally make a friend… I think I have a real friend for the first time in my life, and… even though he was human, he was accepting to these until I've driven him away… all because I've said I hated humans."
She heard strange shouts, "That's not of any monster I ever heard before." Slowly, she walked into the direction, lead by her curiosity to the mysterious noisy shouts.
————
Back with Tsukune, he found out he was going to be forced into some insane group called MONSTER.
He knew that if he'd run away, these guys would follow him and capture him since they said that they chose him to join him for some reason, which leaves him with one option; to fight.
Every time Tsukune could knock one of the mysterious Golunoids, they'd get back to their feet, Matrix style! Tsukune strikes his hardest into the center-front of the chest of a Golunoid, finding out that it dissipated into a harmless black cloaks.
The man in dreadlocks says, "Congratulations, you have exploited the easiest weakness of the Golunoids; they have holes in their chests where their hearts should be, but when introduced with something fueled by or with such lowly things like the so-called 'goodness' or kindness or even courage, they die so easily."
Sure enough, Tsukune's determination to go back to Moka is giving him the strength to overcome the Golunoids and defeat them all. Tsukune growls, "Tell your superiors no deal! I want nothing to do with them! Your organization sounds like something that wants to rule the world!"
The man in dreadlocks cackled, "Actually, MONSTER wishes to rule everything… including Yokai Academy, the monsters that inhabit it, and the human world. I guess I'll have to use my Kaijin form to knock you out."
The man with dreadlocks transforms into a hulking black-and-red spider-like creature with a thick arachnid-like abdomen and prickly hair running over his skin. His teeth are razor sharp and his arms and legs doubled before changing into arachnid-like legs with horrible 5-fingered hands. In all, he looks like the real definition of a spider monster.
Tsukune had visions of his parents and cousin and Moka, and then he thought of creatures like the Spider Kaijin attacking them entered the visions… this was enough to fuel his need to protect them. Tsukune punches the MONSTER agent beast in the left eye.
Tsukune is surprised to find his entire right arm and fist, which he used to punch the Kaijin in the eye with, now fully covered in white armor. He gasps as he looked at the new belt around his waist, "The relic!" The strange stone relic he found the day before, is the belt white (black gunk is gone) buckle of the new black belt around his waist.
The Spider Kaijin gasps, "Yokissai!"
Tsukune sighs, "God forgive me." then he punches his newly armored fist into the mutant arachnid's eye once more, turning the head into mush!
(Referee Bat: "This battle's over for 209 seconds. CHUU!")
Tsukune looks at his armored hand soaked in Spider Kaijin's brain goop, he wipes it off with the black cardboard box the Spider dropped. "If only there was some way to remove the armor," thought Tsukune, then the armor disappeared. "Okay, I guess I can summon this belt and get the armor disappear through will."
————
Back in Moka's location, she lost track of the shouts and decides to take a rest. She never even suspected that Tsukune was even human, but his blood did have an interesting flavor. She shook her head. She needed to find him and apologize, and to talk to him.
She heard rustling behind and spun around expectantly, "Tsukune?"
"Sorry, babe," Saizou grinned ferally. "It's just you and me now, alone."
"Saizou?!?"
————
Tsukune walked through the forest back towards the school after his battle with MONSTER agents. He decided it was time to face Moka, even if it meant letting her drain him completely or have her kill him personally for hurting her. Maybe he could give Moka a chance to explain herself and…
"KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!"
Tsukune's eyes snapped wide open. "Moka-san!"
————
Saizou had assumed his true form, an orc, and he looked hungry in many ways. He is a hulking creature with thick veins and bumps running over his skin. His teeth are razor sharp and his tongue is longer than before. In all, he looks like the real definition of a monster. "Don't worry babe," said Saizou sleazily, "When I get nervous, my body changes on its own. But I'm going to enjoy this violation of school rules! Give me a kiss, toots!"
Frightened, Moka screamed out "TSUKUNE!"
A rock hit Saizou's head and he turned, annoyed, to look at who'd thrown it. It was Tsukune Aono again.
Moka turned to see Tsukune, he looked like he was in a bloody battle, but she's glad to see him!
"Get away from Moka-san!" Tsukune demanded.
"Scram, kid!" Saizou shouted at Tsukune.
Tsukune says, "No, I've come back to tell something important to Moka."
Saizou ferociously growls, "Then say it, boy… before you DIE!"
"Tsukune!" Moka exclaimed, "Be careful, Saizou's an orc!"
"You're trying to hurt Moka-san," said Tsukune angrily. His eyes took on a different light now. "I can't forgive you."
"Oh yeah? What are you gonna do about it?" sneered Saizou, preparing to swipe Tsukune away.
Tsukune shouts out a battle cry and charges at Saizou, fist first! The belt with the relic/buckle materialized first, then as Tsukune's fist connects with Saizou's face its armor from before materialized again!
Moka watched curiously as did Saizou. Tsukune throws a kick at Saizou's gut, revealing complete set of white armor for his own leg, getting an idea… Tsukune plants two more unarmored blows into Saizou, but then Tsukune becomes fully armored.
With the transformation complete, Tsukune finds himself clad in a full light-grey bodysuit with pieces of white armor. His head was covered with a white helmet with a pair of pale brownish red eyepieces and a silvery human mouth-like mouth guard, and on the forehead of the helmet is a dark-brown arrowhead-shaped crest-like gem with a pair of small gold-colored bladed horns.
Saizou was taken by surprise by the sudden change and Tsukune tackled into him. They both tumbled along the ground as Moka watched. "Tsukune!" she cried and she ran to follow the fight.
While Saizou was powerful in his true form, Tsukune was glad he's mediocre enough in martial arts that it makes him able to defend himself and, more importantly, others. He was able to dodge all of Saizou's punches before retaliating with amazingly strengthened punches of his own that forced Saizou backwards. He then used a snap kick to hit Saizou between the legs before grabbing the orc's hair and pulling his head down into his knee. Saizou was sent reeling.
Saizou thought furiously, 'What the hell is this? He's throwing stronger punches and kicks than me?' Tsukune thinks to himself, 'I think I'm getting the hang of this!'
"Tsukune!" Moka cried when she arrived and Tsukune was momentarily distracted. Saizou took advantage of this and slashed at Tsukune across the chest, sending sparks flying. Tsukune cried out in pain and was sent flying by a brutal haymaker that sent him skidding along the ground and into a tree.
He crashed violently and Moka kneeled next to him to check him for injuries but it was hard to tell with that armor of his. "Tsukune-kun? Are you alright?" she asked. Tsukune gets up, "If it weren't for this armor, I'd be dead. So yes, I'm fine."
Moka cries, "You came back… for me! I'm so sorry!" Tsukune asks, "Why?" Moka's eyes swell with dripping tears, "I… used to… want to believe… that… I could really have a human friend… but with me being a vampire, my blood-drinking heritage just hurts them. I wanted to think the right person and I could overcome that. But I guess it's impossible, because of everything that's passed I've been hurting you Tsukune."
Tsukune's helmet vanished, revealing his face, he says "Surely, I'm pathetically ordinary, without this armor. But, still… it's not right to run away… and leave you… so, even if you're a vampire, I want to be your friend… because I really like you, Moka-san."
Moka cries and holds on tight to the armored Tsukune, "I'm not leaving you either! Even if you are human, you're still my friend! I could never hate you!"
"Aw, how sweet," said Saizou mockingly. "Looks like I have to kill you both. What a waste though; I wanted to have one go at Moka before I had to kill her."
Tsukune's newfound battle rage grew and he reached up for something for support when his hand grabbed onto Moka's rosario. With an accidental tug, he pulled it off her. "It came off!"
"Huh?" Tsukune blinked as he stared dumbly at the silver cross in his hand. He remembers what she said about it; 'Listen, if this rosary over my chest is removed from the seal… I'll become reeeeally scaaaaary.' He only had time to hear Moka gasp before her entire body was enveloped in light.
While he couldn't see what was happening to Moka very well, he could sure sense it. That well of power she had within her that Tsukune had felt was being restricted was now breaking loose, even his helmet rematerialized. The inhuman power was moving like a river through her entire body. As his eyes began to get accustomed to the light, he saw that the sheer amount of power was making Moka's physical appearance change as well.
Her body gains a sensual outlook boost; better rear and even bustier than before. Her pink hair is turning silver right before Tsukune's eyes. Her skin seemed to become paler as the power continued to flow. The nails on her fingers became slightly pointed, looking like they could cut things. Her fangs became more pronounced while her eyes turned crimson and slitted.
Tsukune can only stare at Moka after her transformation. She looks radically different, almost like a different person. She looks…more sensual, than before. She exuded a kind of sexuality that would make men drop to their knees, yet Tsukune can also feel the danger that lies underneath it. This girl is dangerous!
"Impossible! Those crimson eyes, that silver hair and the intense dark supernatural energy!" shouted Saizou. "An S-Class monster? Super vampire?!"
Tsukune blinks at the words describing his friend. He knew she's a vampire, but to hear that she is so powerful? That was something new to him. Getting up, he saw this Reverse Moka opening her eyes and taking in the armored form of Tsukune.
"Impressive," she smiled. "I did not expect to find one such as you here."
Tsukune remained silent before he turned to look at Saizou. The orc was shocked at seeing the new Moka, but his courage was returning. He was clenching his fists as he readied himself to execute another attack. Seeing this, Tsukune stepped forward and took a fighting stance. Chuckling softly, Reverse Moka stepped beside her armored friend.
"Chivalry noted, but I am not some fragile sick child," she smirked. "I can take this insignificant low class nobody myself." Tsukune gulps and stood aside.
Coldly looking at the orc, "Are you the one who disturbed my sleep, little boy?" Saizou stops in his tracks, "Huh?" Reverse Moka wickedly smirks, "What's the matter? I thought you wanted to snuggle with me. Please show me how strong you really are and… gimme a hug."
Infuriated, Saizou charged in at Reverse Moka who blocks his enormous hand with her smaller hand with perfect ease. "Really!" scoffs Reverse Moka, "Is that all you've got?"
Then with a single front kick, "Learn your place!" she sent the massive orc sailing backward, screaming, as her kick made impact.
KWOOM!
"Typical monster, all size," smirks Reverse Moka, "not even a decent opponent for me."
(Referee Bat: "This battle's over for 8 minutes and 2 seconds. CHUU!")
Reverse Moka turned to regard the armored Tsukune. His helmet shimmered and dissolved, again revealing his regular human head. With the first immediate crisis dealt with, Tsukune worries as he looks at his transformed friend. She is even more beautiful and sexier now than when she was wearing her Rosario.
Reverse Moka picks up the rosario that lay on the ground and stood up to the young man, her presence was intimidating to say the least. With the choice to either stand or flee, Tsukune feels too much of everything remotely connected to fear.
"You're an interesting one, Tsukune Aono," said Reverse Moka. "Or, would you like to go by a different name in this form?" "Not really, I'm really Tsukune Aono," gulps and stutters Tsukune, "But I think we've solved… the mystery of the… missing stone I've… found earlier. Some Spider Kaijin… from an organization… called MONSTER… said 'Yokissai'… when he saw this, but… afterwards I had to… smash his head."
"Kaijin? MONSTER? Yokissai?" nodded Reverse Moka, "Hmm, I see. And this stone you were looking for was really a relic that can create that magical armor that you're wearing now. Very well. And, please, stop being so worried for your life. It's been a while since I've been awakened… I'm still drowsy."
Tsukune blinks as she continues talking to him, "I won't hurt you. 'cause your blood tastes too good to me…" she gets closer to the mostly armored human, who tenses a bit, as she snickers "…even when the real me is asleep. Heh heh heh."
Tsukune's heart skipped a beat for a second, 'Multiple personalities!!! The other Moka may be gentle and sensually cute. This Moka is a lot scarier… but on the other hand, she's really hot too!'
Suddenly the rosario gleams in a sparkly light, Moka-sama sighs "Till we meet again. You just keep babysitting Moka… 'kay? I can't be out here all the time."
With a single motion, the rosario was attached back onto the chain Moka-sama wore. In a flash of light, Moka's power was brought back into her body. Her eyes drooped shut as they returned to their original shade. Her hair likewise returned to its pink shade. Stumbling forward, Tsukune caught her in his arms. As he managed to her steady, the armor dematerialized. His body turned white light before returning back to normal with the clothes he had on earlier and his wounds healed.
"Moka-san?" he called, "wake up, Moka-san." Moka's eyes fluttered open, "Thank goodness you're——"
"TSUKUNE-KUN!" Moka cried out loudly as she hugged him tight, surprising him. "I'm so sorry about what I said! I really am!"
"I'm sorry for running off before I heard you out," replied Tsukune, returning the hug.
————
Over with the corpse of the Spider Kaijin, the bus driver sighs "Oh boy, looks like sonny boy isn't so weak anymore. Good luck to you, especially against the perils here and with the terrorist organization, MONSTER."
————
And so, the truly bizarre college life of Tsukune Aono begins… his withdrawal notice was torn to shreds thanks to his encounter with the first wave of MONSTER agents against him, but with the awesome power Moka packs, the incredibly powerful Reverse Moka, and his new mystic armor, probably the Yokissai they mentioned, he could be able to survive anything.
Tsukune believes he has made the right choice. Of course sometimes he has his doubts, but he's found someone special at this college campus that he would never find anywhere else.
Moka chased him down the halls, "I keep wanting to suck your blood!" Tsukune screamed, "NO-O-O-O-O!" the male students are obviously less than pleased about this!
To be continued…

-Powers: Because she's a vampire, Moka needs to drink blood to function daily (despite still being able to ingest other food and drinks, with tomato juice being the alternative to blood), if she goes too long without it her strength will decline and she may suffer fainting spells.
Like most vampires in traditional folklore, she's weak against silver and crosses, yet her greatest vampire vulnerability is water, due to its purifying properties. Being with plain pure water (not herbal water nor sweat) can have an adverse affect on her, rendering her immobile.
In her sealed state, Reverse Moka can communicate with her counterpart via the rosario, imparting both knowledge and warnings. Of course even in her sealed state, Moka has access to her tremendous vampire strength (but she prefers to be more laid back and rarely uses all her strength). Once the rosario is removed, Reverse Moka takes over and she goes from vampire to super-vampire.
In her super-vampire state, Moka possess super strength, super speed, incredibly agile reflexes, and strong regenerative properties. With her intense demonic supernatural energy, she can convert it into raw strength (this ability is rarely seen in other races). When soaked with water in her unsealed state, Moka is held back from utilizing the full extent of her abilities. Oddly enough, sunlight has only a minor effect on her; her pale skin is easily sunburned.
Moka can physically inject her blood into another person through her fangs, temporarily transforming them into vampires about as strong as she is (just for regenerating any wound on their body) at the cost of diminishing her strength and need to recuperate for lack of blood in her system. Moka gains some kind of connection to those who she injects her blood into. However there's an extremely dangerous risk that constant injection will slowly damage the host's body and perhaps kill him. Even if the host does live through a blood transfer, there is a rare instance where he or she may transform into a ghoul, a mindless variant of a vampire, with an uncontrollable desire to kill and crave for blood.
Her Vampire Queen Kick attack (which is when she usually finishes off an opponent with a kick), a kick with all of her supernatural energies infused, is powerful enough to crush almost any opponent.
