A/N: Here's an Ao no Exorcist fanfic, the featured pairing of Izumo Kamiki and Rin Okumura. There is a possibility I'll add Shura into the 's pretty damn hot. I do not own Blue Exorcist.

(First Chapter is in Izumo's PoV, but the rest will be in Rin's Pov)

Enjoy~ Neh, and don't forget to review or else I may lose motivation to write.


Chapter I:

In True Cross Academy, a high societal high school for rich kids. They get top-notch education, First class food among other things. But that's not the only thing the academy contains. There is an Exorcist cram-school for those training to become an Exorcist. They all have their reasons, but I have never told mine to anyone. There are few in the class; Shiemi, Shima, Suguru, Konekomaru, and myself. The the most mysterious out of all of them, is Rin Okumura. He's frustratingly mysterious. It annoys me so much that there are endless secrets about him. He's not very academically intelligent, he seems to be incredibly strong. While he used to call me 'eyebrows', I always wondered why he had odd pointed ears. It pisses me off that I know next to nothing about him other than he is a damn good cook. Enough about them. I come from a long line of shrine-maidens, and my name is Izumo Kamiki, and I am a Tamer.

It all began the night the middle class Naberius attacked in our training camp. The details were muddled, but one of our sensei's went overboard a bit. In that time, apparently Rin slew one of the demon halves on his own without any support. And again when he apparently tamed a high class Cait Sith and named it Kuro. Had he ever even tested to see if he was a tamer? He'd mentioned he wanted to be a Knight. He carries a sword around, but I've never even seen him take it out of that red sleeve for combat. Just what kind of Exorcist is he?

It's a little more than that though...


I just had to know; I would find out Rin's secret even if I were to get in trouble. So here I was, standing just outside of the creepy old dorm that Mr. Okumura and Rin lived in. I once saw Rin and Yukio open the rusty gate and enter the building. It seemed odd to me, that only the two of them lived there. Why would Mr. Faust place them there instead of a boy's dormitory? The place is really decrepit and seems like it should be torn down. Ivy infested the outside of the building, but not much else grew around it.

Pushing one of the heavy doors open, I cringed as it made a high-pitched squeal. Swiftly, I darted inside before the door slammed shut. The entrance hall didn't look too bad, not as bad as the building appeared on the exterior. As I strode down the corridor, my footsteps echoed behind me loudly. It smelled musty, but not terribly so. I discovered a stairwell and raced upwards to the second and then third floor. Opening the door at the summit of the stairs, I looked to either side before heading east.

"Ne, this place is eerie," I muttered to myself, looking at the closed and unused dorms.

I wandered around for at least a good five minutes before I noticed a flicker of light beneath one of the doors. A light? The cafeteria I had visited a quarter of an hour ago was abandoned, but obviously there had been someone cooking in there recently. But this dorm was obviously in use. Did the twins really live here? Then I heard a pair of voices; I hid behind a support pillar and listened.

"You heard something walking around in the dorm Kuro?" That was unmistakably Rin's voice. "You certain you didn't just imagine it or think it was a mouse, cuz there's plenty of those."

The next voice didn't sound like anyone she remotely knew: "Hai! Rin, I was the Southern Gatekeeper here for a long time. I am always alert. Well...except when you give me catnip wine. But the scent is humanoid." That...that couldn't be that feline familiar of his, could it? Most demon familiars were incapable of speech. All familiars could understand speech, but non could speak in human tongue. Those that could were rare, like my Byakko familiars.

"Mou...I suppose so," replied Rin. I imagined him ruffling his hair. "I bet it's just a low class demon that got in somehow. Maybe a ghoul or something. I should exorcise it. Wanna come along Kuro?" I heard the Cait Sith give a loud mewl which I assumed meant yes.

My heart was pounding in my chest as I heard the door-knob turn and saw the corner of the door swing outward. I first saw Kuro as he leaped past the room threshold. Like I'd seen him many times, I saw the white chest fur and black body. He had a forked tail. A nekomata for sure. I cowered in the corner, wishing to disappear. It would not be good if I got caught. Crap, I thought as I saw the feline familiar gazing at me. They were like glowing yellow orbs in the darkness. I could hear heavy footsteps falling closer.

"Kamiki-san?" That was Rin's first question. I looked at him; Rin had messy black hair that swept down in his eyes, pale skin, and dark blue eyes. He's a little taller than myself. He was wearing a pair of black jeans with chains hanging from the belt, but no shirt on his torso was to be seen. There were a multitude of scars dotting his chest. I flushed at seeing him shirtless, but that was not as important. What really caught my attention was the tail that jutted out from behind. I blinked, having thought I imagined it. I opened my eyes again to see I had not made up the fur-tufted tail.

"You have...a tail?" I had never been so confused in my life before. I'd lost confidence, had wavers in my heart, but never confused. This...was an uncomfortable place in my mind, not knowing what was going on. I absolutely had to know, for the sake of knowledge. "Nani yo! Rin...why do you have a demon's tail?" I pressed. I had been watching him intently and I'd noticed the black furry tail had snaked into his pants in an attempt to hide it. I waited for an explanation, "Well?"

Rubbing his head, he laughed, "Ehhh, it's a really long story. We have class tomorrow, so you should go get some sleep and forget about this."

"Tomorrow is Saturday Rin," I countered. I was not taking no for an answer. I would know exactly what was going on, even if it killed me. "There's a lot of stuff we Ex-squires know nothing about. And you're the biggest mystery of True Cross and I will find out one way or another. So just spit it out and tell me!" I hadn't meant to get bossy, but I had to do what I could to thieve this knowledge from him.

He turned around and walked back into his room, Kuro right behind. "Come in and close the door," he said quietly. I walked in and looked around at the two halves of the room. "Yukio is spending the night at Shiemi's place," Rin grumbled, answering my unspoken question. "He mentioned something about tutoring her in hopes of getting her to become an exorcist, but it's pretty obvious that the two like each other."

As I took a seat on one of the beds despite how messy it was, I asked, "So what the big deal huh? You have a tail. Are you some sort of demon?" Why would a demon try to become an Exorcist? I thought to myself. I'm certain he is. There's no other explanation.

"It's quite a long story, but it looks like you aren't going to leave me well enough alone," sighed Rin as he plopped down next to me. I guess it was his bed after-all. "You can't tell anyone any of this or I'll be in deep shit with Mephisto. Only a couple teachers and my brother know this."

"Yeah, yeah, I won't tell anyone," I said. I scoffed mentally. I doubted it would be a big enough deal that I wouldn't have to hide it away from my classmates. "Go on."

"It's because of something out of my control. Dammit!" He looked at me briefly before looking at the floor and fidgeting with his tail. This secret of his was eating away at him. I was being snoopy and nosy, but I had to know. Kuro jumped up onto the bed and onto my lap. I smiled at the familiar. "I'm Satan's son."

"N-nani?!" My eyes widened in disbelief, but the pained look in his eyes told me he was not lying to me. I wanted to stand up and back away out of instinct, but my body would not move. I wasn't sure if I was frozen with fear...or surprise. Memories of the times we spent as classmates refused to let me see him as the demon he said he is. I grit my teeth together and asked, "Akuma... If you're a demon...Satan's son, why is your goal to defeat him? Why would a demon become an Exorcist? And why don't you fight with your sword?"

Throwing his head back, Rin contemplated a moment before he began, "I was adopted by an old man name Shiro Fujimoto. When he was still alive, he was the Paladin and my dad." At my creased brow, he said, "It's the reason I became an Exorcist. A while ago, Satan possessed my father, the only one who had the body to resist him. But..." Rin's voice became shaky and faltering. Clearing his throat, he said, "I said that day...I never wanted him to be my father. I regret everything that day." As I looked up at Rin who was still topless, I bit my lip, seeing his body shake. "The sword I carry, the Kurikara seals the blue flames and my demonic power. That's why I've never used it in front of everyone. Now...you'll surely hate me."

"Iie!" I shouted a little louder than I intended, but it was to get my point across. "You're my classmate Rin. You're an Ex-squire like the rest of us. So what if you're Satan's son? You're still human. You wouldn't be in Assiah right now if you weren't. You're my friend Rin. So-"

Jumping in from the open window, a woman slightly older than myself tutted, "Rin, you aren't suppose to be telling people you're the son of Satan. Do you need another lesson? I'd rather not have to report this to Mephisto."

"Ah, no! I'm still sore sensei." Rin said quickly, shaking his hand back and forth comically. "I just caught Izumo sneaking around the dorm. I wasn't really expecting it. I thought a low level demon had gotten in, but it was just her. And I forgot to hide my tail and she saw it. So I swore her to secrecy and told her. She's pretty stubborn. So, you don't need to give me another lesson Shura." I couldn't believe he said that right in front of me! That idiot!

I looked at the woman standing before us. She was the one who replaced Professor Neuhaus. Shura possessed long, red hair with yellow bangs that resembled flames. Her eyes are violet, like the color of my hair and she has a curvaceous figure. She is seen wearing a very revealing bikini top, along with shorts. Shura is certainly provocative to look at. Not very modest at all.

As the teacher held Rin's head to her scantily clad chest, I blanched. Did she really just put his head next to her boobs? Does she like him. Then I reflected back to my own feelings for Rin. He was so kind. Especially after the incident that injured Paku and caused my familiars to attack me.

Petting the half-demon boy on the head, Shura asked, "You're not gonna blab about this to anyone, are you?" Her voice was serious and rather venomous. No doubt she was protective of Rin. I wondered if she was watching the dorm all night or if she had been nearby. Or maybe she lived her to keep an eye on Rin.

"Tch, no. I'm not gonna tell anyone. Especially not because I like him or anything," I mumbled, feeling a blush on my cheeks. I looked away and stood up. "A-anyways, I came here because I was curious if it was true that Rin lived here. I'm going back to my dorm now." My face was on fire from the impending embarrassment. I huffed and walked up to Rin. I mentally gulped and kissed his cheek. "Good night!" I promptly hightailed my way out of there.
