Disclaimer: I do not own Majin Tantei Nougami Neuro and it's charachters.

This is my first fanfic ever so please don't blame me too much. :P Also English is not my mother language, so there will probably be terrible mistakes and so on. I apologize for that.

Quit

Yako felt a fear growing inside her while she run toward the office. She was clearly going to be late again. And that definitely wasn't allowed. No way he would show mercy.

Since the time she came back to him begging him to let her stay his side, he had made extra sure that she did exactly as he command. If she didn't there was always punishment waiting for her. That was the way Neuro wants things to be. And she couldn't complain at all. Not anymore when she had agreed to do anything Neuro deem fit.

She rushed up the stairs and stopped before a door. She stared at it for a moment and then sighed. It wouldn't turn any better by hesitating here. She grabbed the knob and pushed the door open. Warily she stepped inside and shut her eyes.

"Neuro, I'm horribly sorry, I'm late..." Nothing happened. That worried her even more.

"Please forgive me," she said, still standing close the door eyes shut. Still nothing. Afraid what she might see, she opened her eyes just to see Neuro standing close to window, watching out absentmindedly.

"Neuro...?" she asked hesitantly.

"Come here, slave," Neuro said quietly. Oh crap, here it's comes she thought while making her way to him. She stopped a few meters behind him, not wanting to come any closer.

"I want you to quit, Yako," Neuro said with his dark, deep voice still looking out of window. Yako felt her heart to jump. Quit... he couldn't mean... no, no after this all! She could not be able to stand it. She had got used to this, actually she liked to solve mysteries with this demon. He crush the criminal's shield outside and she win them over inside. She could meet various people and learn a lot about them and also herself. So Neuro couldn't be so cruel that he would take this all away from her now!

"Quit...?," she stuttered stunned. Was Neuro so angry to her that he would not stand her and her always-late-attitude anymore?

"Yeah...the school." Neuro said and turned to Yako with a grin plastered on his face. He had enjoyed her shock a lot, because it tell him, that she really didn't want to run away from him anymore. It somehow pleased him very much.

Yako looked confused a moment but then she seemed to understand.

"Ah, the school...." she said with relief and almost turned to the couch "...EH? W-what, the SCHOOL?" she then shouted and turned back when she realized, what Neuro really means.

Neuro just smiled to her very, very "pleasantly". That was the first warning sign that make she to take a step backward. He wants me to quit the school...what the hell...there is no way I could quit the school, he should know it as well!

"Yes, my little dishrag. I was talking with a customer one day, and he asked why you are still at school. He thinks you could be much more useful to the society, if you are full-time detective." Neuro said cheerfully. "So I thought it a bit and I decided that it would be very useful also for me. Actually I'm surprised that I didn't think about this from the start." He grinned evilly.

"But...but..N-neuro...there is no way I could...,"Yako started but was soon cut short by Neuro.

"Are you going to rebel against me now, slave...?" He stepped forward causing Yako to step backward again. "You are going to quit the school, want you or not. I told you from the start, that you don't have right to refuse in your lifetime." His unnatural green eyes sparkled dangerously and his grin grew wider as he take a slow, almost lazy step towards Yako.

With this, Yako backed several steps. I...need time to say something to change his mind she explained her sudden want to get away from him in her mind, though she knew that wasn't the case. But she was not going to give up, the school was something essential for her, at least its cafeteria was. And also there she could meet her friends, because Neuro take away all her free time. So she definitely has to confirm Neuro, that there is no way she could quit the school.

"Neuro...my mother would never let me quit the school! And isn't it important to educate me, you always speak about evolving, so this is...uh..part of it...isn't it..," she complained quickly before Neuro get any closer.

"You evolve enough here, under my care, if you evolve, not anywhere else. And about your mother...I already talked to her, and after I said you could save a lot of humans lives, she was very proud of you, and said that of course you can quit the school, if you want. And I command you to want" He looked amused and had somehow shorten the space between them.

Yako take steps backward and met then a wall. She winced when she noticed she has no way escaping. She looked at the demon looming in front of her. Still, against her better knowledge, she protested. She was somehow angry now.

"But I don't want to! You cant control every part of my life, you monster! I want to go to school and meet my friends and eat there. I won't allow you to take that away from me!" she shouted adrenaline flowing through her veins. And almost immediately she regret it. Now she was really frightened as she looked up at Neuro.

Neuro chuckled in a way which send a shiver down on her spine. He lift both of his hands and placed them each side of Yako's head and leaned down. Yako shuddered and avoided his gaze.

"My my...you don't want to...I can't...you won't allow me... Do you actually want to make me angry?" His voice was like dark velvet and it sounded definitely dangerous and Yako doesn't even dare to look at his eyes. She hear the sound of metal scratching metal both side of her head.

"Uh....no..I just..." she said with very small voice. She lowered her head trying at least to look submissive, although she was still not going to quit the school. But of course there is no way to trick a demon.

"You just?" Neuro said softly and lifted her head with one knife shaped finger. "Whatever the reason is, it's unforgivable to rebel against your Master, do you remember? Well then, will you just do as I want, or do I have to force you...?" She felt the edge of the knife press down on her neck, close her pulse.
