I don't have much to say so i'm just going to do the disclaimer!
I DO NOT OWN BLUE EXORCIST IN ANY WAY! I ONLY OWN LAURA/TORA and any other oc's that pop up!
A young girl dressed in black dress that had torn edges with blue burning flames strolled in the vast waves of blue flames her three wolf tails wagged as she continued to walked in the eternal endless darkness with the blue flames as her only light, her white tipped wolf ears that rested on her head twitched trying to find any other type of sound other than flames roaring.
Her aburn hair swayed from her shoulders as she scanned the area with her green eyes, she sighed and began to run trying to find something to do after a few minutes she skidded to a halt as she looked up to a strange demon that was dressed in some sort of magician getup, the girl tilted her head at the new sight she didn't sense danger nor thought of him as a threat since she was too young to understand.
"my, my if it isn't tora~ she who can walk through satan's flames and not be hurt. Never saw you as a sever year old child." He said as he waved his hand making the flames clear a circle for him before he jumped out of his chair and landed gracefully on the black singed ground.
"it is an honor to see such a rare halfdemon. I am mephisto pheles, the pleasureis mine." Mephisto said slightly taking off his hat to show his purple hair and funny curl. Tora tilted her head at what he called her.
"half demon?" she said as mephisto chuckled, as he noticed the violet flames that ran from the top of her head, spine all the way to the tips of her tails, some were also on her elbows and knees and tips of her ears.
"I guess satans power has gotten to you, well a place like this is no place for a lady, how about I take you away from gehena for a while hmm~?" Mephisto said holding out his purple gloved hand as Tora nearly took it with her black clawed one only to stop a second away.
"Sammy will be sad and miss me…" She stated as her ears drooped, mephisto raised an eyebrow at the name then chuckled.
"if he does I'll tell him your safe ok?" he said as tora looked at her home and then nodded to the man and took his hand.
"now then we need to set a few things up before you can make yourself home in assiah….."
"so you sealed up fathers powers and hers inside this stone?" Amaimon asked tapping the violet colored stone that burned with a purple flame.
"indeed, but not all of it could be sealed so I put some seals on Laura herself, come I'll show you." Mephisto said motioning his brother to follow him to the girls room, amaimon peeked in the crib like bed to see the girl had one tail with three iron binds on it along with one around her neck, her wolf ears were now human that are slightly pointed and her fangs shrunk but her claws stayed the same making mephisto clip them to look human.
"my, she looks more human than I thought, but why would father take this puny halfdemon in? is she his new toy or something?"
Mephisto shrugged and pulled a blanket over the girl.
"no clue, but I didn't like where it was going, she seems to be special enough for him to keep her in the deepest darkest pits of gehena. So I thought I could take her in and make a backup weapon. You know incase our little brother fails to defeat him." Amaimon nodded in understandment as he stared at the sleeping little girl.
. . .
Laura yawned as she opened her green eyes the ceiling, blinking she sat up and looked at her room that had anime posters hung everywhere. She went to her drawers and got her normal outfit with a plain white T and some blue jeans. After slipping them one she went to the mirror to see a fifteen year old looking right back at her as she took her big binded fluffy tail and wrapped it around her waist giving the illusion of it being a belt. She walked out and went downstairs to see mephisto drinking tea and turned to her with a smile.
"oh, Laura~ how are you today? In good spirits I hope, espesialy since I let you sleep in." he said as Laura nodded and sat down at the table with orange juice at hand.
"yeah, thanks mepphy." She said still half tired as she took a sip of her drink. It was a lovely Saturday in her opinion since it seemed to be going good so far.
"well today I want you to go visit a friend of mine, he is a paladin and I think he could start up your training you always wanted." Mephisto said and hearing that made Laura snap awake.
"y-you mean I can be an exorcist!?" She asked jumping up as mephisto nodded. "you seem to be more stable in your mostly human form and you have gotten even more used to making your tail stay in the position of a fluffy belt, so I think it is about time to take it for a test run, you won't be taught to fight though only to use barriers and how to use holy water right."
"but what if a slip up and my tail uncurls by accident what will your friend say?" Laura said as mephisto smirked. "oh, don't worry about that everyone at the church other than my friends kids know of your condition so if you slip up it just means you need a little more time. But it will only be for today, if it goes good we'll do it again for a longer period of time next week. If not, than you have to wait longer." With mephisto saying that Laura slowly looked down to her tail, it took her a while to keep in place and completely still to make it seem inanimate. She has been doing her best to get this chance and shes not about to blow it!
"tell me how to get there!" she stated as mephisto put on his signature smile and held up a key making Laura's smile grow.
Rin huffed as his father scolded him more and more about fighting, he didn't get what the old farts deal was, if he knew why rin fought those guys that day he wouldn't be saying all this!
"father fujimoto, someone is here to see you." One of the pasters said as rins dad nodded and went to see who. Rin just sighed in frustrasion as looked at his brother who smiled and motioned his brother to follow him so he could tend to his older brothers wounds.
Fujimoto smiled when he saw who it was, he only saw pictures from when she was a little kid and such but the bindings around her "belt" and neck were a dead giveaway.
"well if it isn't Laura Marie Brooks, so mephisto let you come out?" Fujimoto asked as Laura gave a big grin and nodded. "yeah but I think you should help the people here first, I can wait." Laura said jestering to the woman and little girl behind her.
"ok, you go in and feel free to look around. I'll come find you when I'm done here." The paladin said as Laura nodded and slowly entered the church, she never was good in big empty spaces so she walked around the sanctuary slowly taking in every surrounding. She entered a hall way and turned the corner to see a boy who seemed to be trying to strangle himself with a neck tie.
"GRyaaah! What the hell!? How am I suppose to get this thing tied right!?" he yelled to himself as Laura held in a laugh catching the boys attention.
"huh?" he blinked at the new person in front of him, she was wearing just plain simple clothing but her belt really stood out making him stare for a good long minute.
"sure take it all in, it's not going to help you with your tie problem." Laura said rolling her eyes as the boy noticed he was still holding the tie tightly around his face and quickly hid it behind his back like it was never there.
"need help? I never tied a neck tie but I can try and help~" Laura said as the boy nodded with a smile.
One minute later
"why do things like this even EXIST!? " Laura yelled in frustration as she somehow tied her own hands to the boys neck. While the boy tied his own up in the tangle of knots
"Hell if I know! It should have never been invented in my opinion!" they both panted as they calmed down from their little fit.
"well since we are like this might as well introduce myself, I'm Laura brooks I came to start my trial to became an exorcist. If I do good I can start full fledge training." Laura said holding her hand in an akward way as the boy took it and shook.
"I'm Rin Okumura, I'm about to do an interview for a part time, if I do good I can start my part time." Rin said as Laura smiled and looked around.
"know anyone good with knots?" she asked as they stared long and hard at the knot.
"maybe dad can help." Rin said as they menuvared through the halls when rin in the lead.
"what are you doing rin?" a voice said as rin and Laura's heads turned to see another boy that looked like rin but had greenish eyes with glasses and three moles on his face.
"yukio! Oh than god, can you get us out of this knot!?" Rin said as yukio sighed and turned his head to the knot.
"alright, let me see" yukio said as he undid the knot in a matter of seconds. Making the two sigh in relief.
"I gotta hurry, can't be late right?" rin said to yukio as he nodded making the older twin run out of the church.
"laura right? I'm also an exorcist in training, I'm rins younger twin brother Yukio." Yukio said as Laura tilted he head in confusion.
"I thought you two knew nothing about me…" she said mostly to herself as yukio gave her a smile.
"rin yes, but dad told me about you since we both never knew when mephisto would send you over here… hey I was wondering can I see your tail?" yukio asked in a slightly excited manner as Laura was confused for a moment, wasn't she NOT suppose t- OH!
"don't have one, sorry" Laura said scratching the back of her head while giving an apologetic laugh.
"but isn't your belt it? I mean it really looks like a tail wrapped around your waist." yukio pushed as Laura sighed in fake annoyance.
"it's just a belt I bought from Kyoto, looks cool though huh?" Laura lied as Yukio nodded with a smile.
"heh even though she knew about you knowing of her tail she still lied about it? I think that's a pass." A voice spoke up as the two turned to father fujimoto. Laura inwardly sighed in relief since she made it past the first obstical.
"now then, yukio will help you on the tasks I give you, think of him as a tutor or something kay?" fujimoto said as Laura and yukio nodded.
Training montoge~ 1: holy water
"ow ow ow!" Laura shouted as she accidently split some on her arm.
"well that's out of the question…" Fujimoto said scratching his cheek
"even half demons are burned by it, we should have known that already before letting her use it." Yukio said regretfully as the girl held her arm while jumping up and down in pain.
2:barriers
"ok this is easy~" Laura said as she set another one down on the ground while making it activate.
"good job, now lets see what else dad wants you to do." Yukio said as Laura smiled and followed behind.
3: holy versus
"ummm and then he shall…."
"smite the wicked, you getting better but you still need to memorize the whole verse here." Yukio said giving the bible back to Laura for her to try and memorize it again.
"well at least her hearts in the right place…" Fujimoto said to himself as he passed the two.
One hour later
"guuuuh my head is about to explode…." Laura groaned as she set the bible on her face and leaned back.
"well at least you got some versus memorized, you did great I think it's about time we had a break." Yukio said closing his as Laura peeked out from under.
"ok, I don't mind." Laura said while she got up and stretched .
"taking a break huh? I think I can give you another test, why don't you take this and buy yourself something from the market?" Fujimoto asked while taking out ten bucks. "We can tell you can keep your tail tucked around a small group of people, now lets see if you can handle yourself around a large group. And you will be on your own so be careful."
Laura hesitantly took the money then looked at the paladin as he nodded that it was ok.
"alright. I'll do it." She said as she took a deep breath and began to march out of the church. Yukio sighed and looked at his dad.
"you sure about this dad? What if her tail does come undone?"
"don't worry boy, if mephisto told me was true. She'd do anything to keep it tucked tight. She really wants to do this. Mostly cause she wants to protect those in need sort of like you with rin, except she wants to try and protect everyone she can as many as she can." Yukio nodded and watched out the window to see the half demon leaving the church grounds to the market, only to go the wrong way.
"dad…. She does know where the market is… right?" Yukio asked as his father flinched when hearing that.
"Nope!" was all he said and began to run out of the church to the aburn.
Laura sighed and looked around at all the people in the store she looked at all the stuff and kept the money in her pocket as she looked at all the merchandice.
a scent caught her attention even with all the different scents it made it hard for her nose to cope with the city but this scent was easy to tell where it was since it was close by. She kept her head looking normal since she knew it was not normal for someone to have their nose in the air, she followed to hear sizzling and a group a people crowding around a certain area.
"this taste delicious!"
"sign me up to buy some~"
"me too!"
Laura blinked and smelt the air to tell the tasty scent was coming from there. She slowly walked through the crowd and saw rin cooking noodles and another lady saying the secret to its flavor. Laura was a little nervous since so many people were here and she was right behind the front lines. But she took a deep breath and stepped up to get a sample.
"oh hey Laura, what are you doing here?" Rin asked while frying the noddles.
"oh, I was just grabbing some type of snack and saw the crowd." Laura said picking up a sample. "thought I'd come see the hype." Laura slowly took a bite and her eyes went big and she chewed and swallowed.
"This is delicious! How did you get so good!" Laura shouted in delight as she took another bite of the noodles while rin chuckled with a red face. "oh it's nothing cooking is like the only thing I'm good at you know?"
"well keep it up~ you rock at this!" Laura said as rin nodded with a big smile on his face. "Well I'll let you get back to work, you got more hungry customers coming to taste as well~" Laura said as she waved and left the crowd as she saw a lady with a big orange afro and glasses pass her, in a way Laura thought it fit the ladys look making her look cute in her own uniqe way.
Laura went to the candy aisle to see what she can get for a good deal. Even though mephisto had money doesn't mean Laura was one to waste and burn money all willy nilly…. Unless she earned the money herself then she would spend as much as she got on video games or treats. But since she was given this money she had the full intention of giving every cent back.
She decided to get a jumbo pack of multiple candies that only cost five bucks with tax. She got this thing for sweets from her uncle amaimon, the two usualy bumped heads but they did get along at times so it was sort of a love/hate relationship between family members.
As she left she saw rin chasing a pink scarf that belonged to a little girl in the lot, Laura threw the plastic bag on her shoulder carrying it like a purse as she went and snatched the scarf for him.
"Got it~" She stated while holding it out to rin he smiled and reached out to take it only to stop and look at the ends, Laura didn't get it until she looked as well and saw it. A monkey creature that she imediatly recognized as a low class demon (hey, having a guardian as a headmaster of a school means you get lots of books so it's not hard to come across a demon class book)was clinging onto it while swaying in the breeze.
"what the-" The demon jumped up and ran into the store Laura ran after it since it still had the scarf Rin ran behind her with the small girl right far behind, Laura was accidently bumping into people and stuff as she turned corners trying to catch the demon or at least get the scarf from it.
The demon jumped on a batch of boxes the little girl was standing under and began to dance on it Laura was about to dive for the girl when rin got to her first, Laura skidded to a hault to look over at rin and the girl, the teen flinched to see her head was bleeding rin looked at Laura only to shout.
"Look out!"
Laura slowly looked up to see an avalanche of boxes crashing on top of her, she opened one eye to see she only had one box on her head while the rest stayed sprawled around her.
"Laura you ok?" Rin asked as the mother of the girl took her daughter from rin in a panic. Laura slowly took the box off her head and flinched.
"eh it might bump but it's not bleeding." Laura stated as she turned around to see the same orange haired woman with glasses from earlier was stomping up to her.
"miss was this your doing!?" the lady said as Laura hung her head.
"Ye-"
"It was me boss." Rin blurted out as Laura's head snapped over to rin who was bowing. "me and my friend were trying to catch the little girls scarf and I accidently ran into the boxes, if it wasn't for my friend Laura pushing me out of the way while I had the girl, we would have had worse injuries." Rin said as his boss glared even harder making Laura shake her head.
"well I can't have a violent thug like you working here, honesty is a vertru but violence and destruction is not welcome here. you are fired." The lady stated stomping away as rin hung his head his eyes covered by his hair.
"Rin…." Laura said taking his shoulder as he silently began to walk out of the store. Laura followed as he went to a small park and sat down on the swing.
"hey you didn't have to do that. I can handle myself." Laura said as Rin sighed. "I know it's fine really, I just wanted to help."
"but you got fired, from what I overheard while training they were excited if you were going to get the job! Why did you drop the ball for me!?" Laura said don't get her wrong she was grateful but rin got fired just as he was hired. In laura's book that was unacceptable for her to do to someone.
"Well for one you probly would have gotten sued for two things! One the girls head was bleeding and the damage you caused while chasing that monkey thing!" Rin snapped as Laura flinched and sat in the swing next to him.
"heh but you were the one that stood up for me." Laura said taking out two lollipops and quickly snatching Rin's nose.
"Wha- Glomp!" Rin said while an orange tootsie roll lollipop was shoved into his mouth.
"we are both at fault… so why not share some sorrow candy? " Laura said (for those who don't know "sorrow candy is any type of candy you eat for when your sad when trying to find comfort.)
"….thanks" Rin said as Laura popped a cherry one in her mouth as the two ate their sweets in silence.
"there you two are, come one lets get back." Yukio said as the two slowly gazed over at rin's younger twin. "whats wrong you two?"
"We'll explain it on the way back…." Laura sighed while getting up with rin following slowly behind.
After that night Laura paid fujimoto the ten bucks back and apologized for the trouble she caused about a dozen times and after a bit she decided it was high time to get back.
"bye you guys, I'll come back soon." Laura said bowing goodbye.
"we'll be waiting to welcome you back." Fujimoto said when Laura turned she was stopped by fujimotos hand on her shoulder. "one more thing…" Fujimoto said handing her a piece of paper. "rins' boss sent this over, but since you both say it was your fault. YOU got to pay for it."
Laura tilted her head and opened it and read the price. "even if it's in my price range this is ridicules who the hell pays this stuff!?" Laura snapped as Fujimoto just shrugged. "not me that for sure~"
"cheapstake" Laura muttered and she stuffed it in her pocket. "well I gotta go. See you guys around."
After she was out of sight she turned a corner to an allyway and closed a random door that had a lock to it and used her key, when she opened it she was back at her home in an instant.
"Meppy you here?" she asked taking the key out of the lock.
"indeed~ home late I see? How was it any trouble with your tail?" Mephisto said walking up to her in flashy moe pjs.
"there was trouble just not with my tail." Laura said holding out a bill as mephisto blinked at it. "whats this?" he asked as he took it and read it to himself.
"you got some explaining to do missy!" Mephisto scolded as Laura sighed knowing she might not get much sleep tonight.
