Authors Note:

I'm in the mood for doing some drabbles. So just a few little short fanfics of 'demon children' from various anime.
Including;

Death Note, Ao No Exorcist, Bleach, Death Note, Fullmetal Alchemist and maybe a few more~

1. Ao No Exorcist

"Look! Over there!"

"It's that demon child!"
"Why did they let somebody like that in this school?!"
"Don't get too close, he might kill you!"

Rumours. Everywhere. They spread. They aren't true. I know that I'm not a demon child. I would only kill someone if I was forced to, or they truly deserved it. Am I a demon for protecting my younger brother?

"Rin! I finally found you." My younger twin, Yukio smiles slightly whilst panting. His voice. So soothing. As are his words. The only person here who understands me.

"Yukio... why were you looking for me?" I ask quietly.

"Rin... you don't sound too good... do you feel sick?" Damn, he understands me that well huh? He can tell when I'm distracted. I push him – gently mind you – to the side, waving off his assistance. He gets bullied still. I know he does. He'll be off to that academy place soon. I hope – for his sake – that he has a better time there. He won't be known as 'the brother of the demon child'. He'll have a great future. I know it.

"I... I'm fine... just got a bit of a fever, that's all. Don't worry..." I reply after a long time, conscious of the passing students in the hallway who had stopped to watch the demon child and his brother conversing. I really don't feel okay. My head is pounding, I'm sick to my stomach and, unknown to my brother, bruises all over my body, covered by long sleeves and jeans. There had been a nasty purple bruise spreading over more forehead this morning, with an outline of green that faded into muddy brown. I had simply pulled out a small make up kit and applied a layer of the stuff that was a shade darker than my natural, pale skin colour and covered it up. I wouldn't let anyone worry about me. I decided that morning, that I wouldn't tell my brother about the injuries he hadn't seen. I would hide my bloody knuckles, broken teeth and bruises.

He would want to get involved. I couldn't let that happen. He gets bullied enough. He wouldn't be able to handle knowing that me, his strong older brother was being brutally attacked everyday after school. Cornered. Attacked. Left to clean up and hide his wounds.

"Rin, are you sure? You seem distant," Yukio took the role of older brother from him for a brief moment, placing the back of his hand against my head before taking it off abruptly. "You're burning up... you should go home." He said sharply.

I think about this for a moment. Will they turn and attack the demon child's brother instead of the demon child? Will my attackers hurt him? I doubt it. The only other time I'd kill somebody would be if they hurt Yukio.

"Yeah, you're probably right, I don't feel well at all." I pick my school bag off the floor and swing it over my shoulder, trying my best not to stagger as I walk home. Nobody except Yukio notices my walking pattern. Nobody except Yukio cares.

Who would care for a demon child anyway?

Fandom; Ao No Exorcist

Poor Rin, he really is a Demon Child. This was set before they go to the academy, in case you didn't see that bit in the 'soon he'll be off to that academy' bit.

I have found that in most anime there is an outcast. That's who this story goes out to. Everyone who reads this and thinks 'that's me'. Everyone who watches anime and sees themselves in an outcast.

Reviews are appreciated ^^ Next chapter will be a different fandom.
