The After Story
Chapter 1
It was the day before graduation and everyone at Yokai Academy was excited. Well everyone except four girls. Ever since their freshman year these four girls have competed for the affection of one human boy. Moka Akashiya looked at her four friends the Snow Fairy, Mizore Shirayuki, the succubus, Kurumu Kurono, and the two witches, Yukari Sendo and Ruby Toujo, all of whom were in their pajamas.
"So why did you bring us here Moka?" Kurumu asked suppressing a yawn.
"And why so early? The sun isn't even up." Mizore said around the ice sucker in her mouth.
"I wanted to talk with you before Tsukune returns from his training with Father." Moka explained before her cheeks gained a light red coloring. "For the last few days, Tsukune has been incredibly distressed even though he doesn't show it."
"Moka, how do you know that?" Yukari asked resting her head on Ruby's shoulder.
"My blood link with him allows us to sense when the other is under emotional duress. He has been trying to decide who will be the girl in his future. Yesterday Tsukune's distressed emotions vanished from my senses meaning he has finally decided. I think I know what his decision is going to be. Option six. No one."
"How do you know this Moka?" Mizore asked.
"If he had chosen someone, then I would have still sensed extreme amounts of guilt. However, due to his personality, he can't hurt his loved ones. So I…I…I…I am willing to share." She forced out becoming very quiet.
"Wait. What? What do you mean share?" Mizore asked.
"I thought you despised the idea of multiple partners." Kurumu said.
"I do. But truth be told, I love him. I'd rather share the greatest man in the world than lose him to some floozy down the road." Moka was bright red as she finally confessed her feelings about Tsukune to the girls.
Kurumu smirked at the confession. "Well it's about time you admitted it. As a Succubus, I have to say that love is only meant to grow so I agree."
Yukari thought back to when Fang-Fang and she accidently switched bodies with each other. Back to what Tsukune said. "Yukari is one of the people I trust most." After a few minutes the young witch spoke up "I agree with Kurumu. After all the only one who was against sharing him at first was you Moka."
"I agree too. But then again, I've already said that even if Tsukune didn't choose me, I'd still follow him where he goes." Mizore informed.
"Great then let's go find Tsukune and tell him." Ruby finished.
"Tsukune is still in his training session with Father. We can confront him at dawn." Moka said.
‡‡‡‡
Tsukune grunted as he slammed into a boulder. Flipping to his feet, Tsukune drew his arm back, turned around, and punched at an upward angle in front of him sending a shockwave of Yoki energy towards Issa Shuzen. Issa had just slammed his own fist into Tsukune's jaw before jumping behind his student in evasion. The wave of Yoki clipped Issa's shoulder knocking the supreme vampire out of his arc. As Issa fell, Tsukune darted forward, slammed his fist into Issa's gut forcing Issa to redirect his landing. Issa traveled with the arc of Tsukune's fist before being slammed into the ground under his student's fist. Tsukune felt Issa's bones shatter and a few organs collapse under the attack causing his trainer to cough up blood. Tsukune stood up allowing Issa to heal himself before they continued.
Issa stood tall a few minutes later causing Tsukune to jump into his battle stance. His arms protected his chest while his hands got ready to strike out or block. His left foot was slightly forward giving him access to jump or run.
A slow clap caught the attention of both Issa and Tsukune. Despite the sinking moon giving way to the dawn turning the black autumn sky purple, Tsukune could clearly see the outline of a man with a burning red circle near the man's face.
"Well done Mr. Aono, we will turn you into a headmaster yet." Nurari the bus driver said walking up to the two vampires.
"Yes, well done. You have earned my blessing." Issa said extending his hand out for Tsukune to shake. "However your skills at assassination still need work, but you are now capable of fully controlling the Shinso blood in your veins."
"Thank you sir." Tsukune said bowing slightly before shaking the offered hand.
"Tsukune, it's taken almost a year to complete but it is ready." Nurari said handing the future headmaster a large flat black jewelry box.
Tsukune opened it revealing a familiar silver cross with a blood red stone in the center. Tsukune had given the cracked and broken cross, that Moka's mother created for her daughter, to the Bus Driver towards the beginning of his senior year, requesting that Nurari find someone who could turn it into a limiter for him.
"The cross will seal your Shinso blood and suppress your vampire powers. The beads are self-healing so if they get torn off, the beads will reconnect." The bus driver explained.
"Thank you." Tsukune said taking the rosary out and placed it around his neck.
The jewel flashed and Tsukune felt his Creation ability and his deeper than night aura vanish. Mentally searching his body, Tsukune found he could still access his vamperic strength, agility, and healing powers just like he could with the Holy Lock.
Issa looked to the sky. "Well Mr. Aono, it has been an honor training you. I look forward to our next session after your summer break. Remember what I said about women though."
Issa turned and walked away.
Tsukune nodded in reply before exhaustion fell upon him. "Mr. Nurari, do you happen to have the other?"
All the bus driver did was hand Tsukune another box similar to the first and told Tsukune to get some rest.
With the sun rising, Tsukune wearily left the area that served as his training grounds for the past several months. Entering the wooded graveyard that acted like a crossroads between practically everything on academy grounds, Tsukune heard his name being called. Before having a chance to react, he was tackle-hugged by Yukari and Kurumu causing the jewelry box to skitter across the ground stopping by Moka's feet.
"Good Morning Tsukune!" Kurumu exclaimed looking at her love's face. "AH! Ts-Tsukune! Y-Your eyes! They are different colors!"
"Huh? Hey you're right!" Yukari confirmed as Mizore stepped in to take a look.
"Oh it must be because of my limiter." Tsukune said.
Moka wasn't paying attention. In her hands was the open jewelry box containing a replica of the Rosary Cross she had worn for 7 years.
"Why do you have this? Where did you get it?" Moka asked her voice carrying grief and anger.
"I…um…I had it made. I had it made in case you wanted to limit your powers like Kahlua and Gyokuro did. I'm currently wearing the one Akasha made. I had it restored to seal my Shinso blood and suppress my Vampire powers. You can have this one if you want." Tsukune said pulling the beaded necklace containing the silver Rosario from under his shirt.
Moka didn't know if she should be furious at Tsukune or joyful about the gift. "No Tsukune you should keep the Rosario my mother made. After all I have the choker that went to the original Rosario."
"O-Ok. And just so you know, it will seal your Shinso blood, but you will be able to remove the Rosario on your own. Um…why are you all up so early." Tsukune asked.
"We…um…we have something to tell you." Moka said shyly.
Yukari stepped in and said "It's about your decision, we know you are not going to choose any of us to be your future however you have a seventh option."
"What do you mean a seventh option?" Tsukune asked a little confused.
"Instead of just choosing one of us you can choose all of us." Mizore answered. "We voted this morning and we agreed that if you choose that option we would share."
"Really? I never even gave that option a thought because of what Moka said last year. How did you guys know what my decision was going to be?"
"The blood link we share." Moka said. "and it's true, while I still despise multiple partners, I figured it's the only way for all of us to be truly happy."
"Could I get some time to think please?" Tsukune asked. "It's a lot to take in."
"Yes. Of course you can have time to think about it. I would have been angry if you had just said yes without thinking it over." Moka said.
Tsukune started heading towards the academy with the others in tow.
‡‡‡‡
During the middle of first class, Lilith came to Tsukune's classroom.
"Tsukune, the headmaster wants to see you in his office right away."
+ Hey all, I am back and I do apologize for the super long break but I am back and better than ever.
