Tsukune felt the claws slash across his back as he reached for Moka, he felt the aura change as he clutched the Rosario in his hand. Then to his horror he felt Gin bite him and he blacked out.
Moka turned from the hole in the railings "If you're going to make a pass at me Tsukune you'd better prepare your body first" she said coyly over her shoulder towards him. As her gaze fell on the still unconscious boy her expression changed to one of fury. Tsukune had a bite to his neck that was pumping out his precious blood. She could hear Omote screaming to her from the Rosario.
Kurumu sat with her hand over the wound trying to stop the blood, her fingers in the wound had stopped the spurting, however the flow wouldn't stop, her hand and skirt were covered and soaking. In the full moon the blood looked black and her splattered face turned to Moka imploringly "He ripped when he felt you change" she sobbed "I can't stop it. Please Moka" tears rolled down her face the silver tears turning black where it mixed with the blood.
Moka stood in front of her "I'll try, but that mutt has infected him already" she knelt down and her mouth went over the wound. She grimaced as she tasted the werewolf then there it was, Tsukune's real blood. The taste filled her as she drew more and more from the feeble human body. Her fingers were on the other side of his neck and she could feel the pulse slowly get weaker and weaker. The flow was slowing she was now having to draw out the blood; then the heart stopped and she drew out the last. She lifted her head and looked at Kurumu her black lips and mouth smiled grimly "Now pray that this works and I don't have to kill what I'm about to create" They heard a groan from below them "I am killing that fucking dog whatever happens"
Kurumu still sat as she registered the words, Moka had returned to Tsukune's healed neck now returning the blood. "He wouldn't like you to do that, you know how gentle he is"
The look she received from Moka showed that she understood and would decide later. Kurumu shut her eyes and let her hands come together, they stuck with the blood but she didn't notice as she didn't draw them apart, her head fell forwards.
Watching, Moka's eyes grew as Kurumu actually prayed in front of her. She'd never seen a monster pray before; she'd heard pleads but never an actual prayer. Beneath her fingers she felt the faint pulse of death start. Whatever happens Moka knew that the Tsukune who'd come into her life was dead, in the back of her mind she could hear Omote's tear soaked voice as it joined Kurumu's silent one. She realised that the pulse was now strong and then realised that she'd given more blood than she intended, before she could take a little back she blacked out. She missed seeing the white robed figure stoop to pick up the discarded camera and the flash as he took a picture. Smiling as the camera came down he indicated his guards to take the trio to the infirmary.
oOoOo
Moka looked up at the blood pack suspended above her head and felt the Yoki of three others in the room, two were suppressed by Rosario's or seals and Kurumu's was quiet as she slept. Sitting up she realised that she was still in her true form, her eyes narrowed as it became apparent that someone had undressed her and put her in a gown.
"There are such things as female nurses" a chuckle sounded from behind her. The voice was however very low "Quietly or we'll wake the others"
She turned to look at the figure in white, the cowl hiding his face. "I am the chairman of this school and as such thought I'd better have a word before we wake the others" The glow of his eyes grew as he watched her: with her quick imperious nod he continued "Firstly your destruction of Morioka Gin will not happen. Although it has been instructive to listen to you contemplate what you were going to do to him" he paused "When we could decipher it from amongst the expletives." Moka saw a grin within the darkened cowl "His Sempai has been summonsed, she will not be in the slightest happy with his conduct. Although he has already healed from your meeting the staff here have been warned to expect him to stay for at least two weeks when she finishes with him"
"Only if …"
"Tsukune kun is" he paused "Alive. But changed as you no doubt expected" He held up a hand to forestall the question "In a moment. The uninhibited release of his blood during a full moon has caused other problems. Your friend Kurono Kurumu was bathed in it although she was a succubus she has also been changed" Moka concentrated on Kurumu's yoki then looked quizzically at the chairman. "Physically you could say that she is still a succubus however she has increased in power. In short she now has the strength and speed without the need for the full moon, it will take her some time to adjust" there was a chuckle "She will now outclass a normal S class vampire" he watched the face as the pride so pre-eminent in her race made it's presence felt "Which you are not" he again waited until the question was verbally unasked "Your Dam was Shinso"
Moka's eyes flew open wide "Shinso" she exclaimed "But Tsukune"
"Yes a most unexpected development on your part. To think you'd give your blood to a human" there was a sigh "It has caused more than a few problems"
"How strong was that mutt?"
"Strangely Morioka Gin is pure blood, although he doesn't realise it yet. His true form will only appear when he is of age. Much like yours"
Moka shuddered "Then the combination of blood within Tsukune?"
"Yes interesting. If this were a film he would take some strange hybrid form and be more powerful than either of you. However this isn't the disturbed mind of some Otaku this is the monster realm where even stranger thing happen. It would appear that the bloods have cancelled the other somewhat. He is neither a vampire nor a werewolf" he raised his eyes "He's possibly the most unlikely creature ever created"
"You're saying Tsukune is a True Human with the power of both races" she whispered
"Yes, he will have the speed and constitution of a werewolf combined with the intelligence longevity and healing of a vampire. It appears his body accepted only those traits it considered it needed. As a human he's neither affected by the moon or water and there is the problem" there was a long silence "I've sealed him at the moment but what do we do. The decision is also yours since he is your creation and responsibility"
Moka instinctively opened her mouth to tell the chairman to kill Tsukune then stopped and reigned in her fears. Her mind started working and she asked in a quiet whisper of incredulity "Have the Lords been informed?"
"Very good" the chairman replied "Yes they have. He can be kept in a coma until we've met"
"When, how soon?"
"A few days" he indicated her Rosario still in Tsukune's hand "Your Rosario wasn't designed to be removed for long periods of time, it will be adjusted when we meet but now you'd better put it back on" he paused "What does your other half think?"
Moka stood and removed the intravenous needle and walked over to the sleeping Tsukune taking the Rosario from his hand she listened.
"She understands the necessity for the caution and the danger involved but will try anything to preserve him" Moka frowned "I thought you'd sealed him?"
"I had but his yoki is natural and he has no concept of controlling it as well as no way to release it; and at the moment no definable limit. That is a standard seal and will soon break; you'd better drink to keep it under control until we have our meeting"
Moka sank her fangs into his neck and drank a little blood but concentrated on taking the excess yoki until she couldn't feel it beyond the seal. When she finished she turned back "He isn't a normal human, or should I say he wasn't a normal human"
Again there was a flash within the darkness of the cowl "I know that's why he was selected to attend this school" he waited until he saw comprehension on Moka's face "Will he be able to adjust and will you accept him, he'll be your equal at least in power and the other traits you vampires value?"
"And share is what you're asking" she growled
"He has your lifespan now" he waved the matter away as an irrelevance. "A succubus" he pointed to Kurumu, "A snow woman and maybe others. All races that need a good boost of genetic material that he can now provide; if he can be controlled" he watched her expressive face again then chuckled "You can not deny your interest as you gave him an excessive amount of blood to save him"
"We'll need to prepare him for the shocks and changes he'll now have to adjust to" Moka smiled "As for the other, it won't be easy he's actually monogamous but we" she indicated the Rosario "think it can be worked out"
"Good, then he can wake up in the morning and you can start to prepare him for the meeting. There is just as much need for vampires as other races" As Moka moved to the bed to reseal herself he continued "You will be expected to be honest in your assessment"
"Tsukune will agree to help others it's hardwired into him; the problem are his morals" then sighed "Also the knowledge that he'll have to take more than one partner knowing that he'll outlive both them, his human family and any children. We'll need somewhere secluded to stay" her hand included Kurumu
The chairman took the Rosario from her fingers and lifted the link "The curse of being a vampire or any near immortal being. The change will be arranged by the time he wakes fully, he'll need to be almost fully adjusted before he returns to classes." There was a hidden threat there that Moka nodded to. "Sleep well and good luck" he clipped the Rosario back and watched as she fell asleep, then turned and left.
oOoOo
Tsukune woke in what was obviously a hospital room. His attention was taken from the room by a slight pain in his wrist. He looked to see Moka kiss two small punctures that vanished leaving unblemished skin. She looked at him and continued to hold his hand. His eyes took in Kurumu sitting on the other side of the bed holding his other hand. Both looked deeply unhappy.
"What's the matter, what happened?"
"What do you remember" Kurumu asked as she squeezed his hand
"We were on the roof" his eyes closed "I'd managed to get the Rosario then" His eyes opened wide "He bit me" his hands pulled out of the girls grasp and went to his neck feeling. His eyes resumed their normal size as he didn't find either bandages or marks. He looked at the two "Did he bite me?"
They took his hands and held them again "Yes" Moka replied, Tsukune could tell she was having trouble controlling her anger. His eyes opened a little wider as he saw the Rosario bounce up and down as if agitated. Moka saw his face "No you're not a werewolf"
"Thank god" he looked again "But why the long faces"
"He ripped your neck open Tsukune" Kurumu said "You were dying and we didn't want you to"
"We didn't know that he was a pure blood" Moka continued "When my other self had finished you were in Kurumu's lap still bleeding uncontrollably" Moka paused "She was covered in your blood Tsukune with her fingers trying to stop the artery" They both sobbed then looked up as Tsukune squeezed their hands
"Hi, still here"
Tears appeared in both sets of eyes and then they both fell onto him, each taking a side and burying their faces into his neck crying. Eventually they sat up and each took his hand again.
"The only way she could think of saving you was to use her blood so that it would heal you. It's risky but without it she thought you'd die"
Tsukune was still confused and not really attentive; having had both girls so close whilst he was lying in bed was too close to recent dreams to be comfortable. "I'm a vampire then" he asked
"No the bloods reacted with each other" Moka answered shaking her head and sending tears flying.
"Then what"
"You're human" Kurumu replied
Tsukune did a double take at the two still weeping girls "This is a bad thing?"
"With the abilities of both whilst staying in your true form" Kurumu continued
Tsukune looked more confused than ever "It means I won't be weak anymore, that I can stay here with you?"
"You'll be as strong as my other self" Moka said "As fast as a changed wolf during the full moon and will heal very quickly. You also have a vampires lifespan and intelligence now" Moka paused "For all monsters of all races you're our boogie man Tsukune, our worst nightmare"
Tsukune was totally adrift "You hate me"
"Nooooo" they both fell onto him again and his brain shut down.
oOoOo
"Dreaming again" Tsukune thought out loud as he looked around the large bedroom. He shut his eyes and there was total darkness, when he opened them again he could see as clear as day even though it was night and the curtains were closed. He looked at the two heads that were resting on his chest, one pink and the other a light blue. "More like a nightmare if one of these wakes up" he paused "my worst nightmare if they both do, they'll rip me apart" he smiled however and his head returned to the pillow. "God they smell nice" He felt the two warm bodies move and realised that neither was wearing anything as rough hair rasped on his legs. "Now I die, do you die in real life if you're torn apart in a dream I wonder"
"Shush" Moka breathed into his ear, soft silky flesh brushed against him and he shuddered.
"Tsukune look at my eyes" Kurumu said He opened his eyes to see Kurumu naked from the waist up, the lower part still covered by the sheet. "My eyes Tsukune" she giggled "You can play later"
Tsukune looked towards his dream Moka, she'd also sat up and was as naked as Kurumu "Well since it's a dream and I'm going to die anyway" his eyes moved downwards
"Dream is it" Moka asked with a slight blush. Then she slowly pulled the sheet away revealing her total nakedness. "Now look at Kurumu, her eyes, Tsukune her eyes"
His eyes had stopped when he'd turned back, where Moka had her knees together, Kurumu didn't. He felt her hand move his face upwards "My eyes Tsukune" Moka giggled from the side. As he looked into her eyes he felt a deep apathy "Now sleep" Kurumu commanded.
Kurumu looked at Moka "He has a normal male sex drive at least" she lifted the sheet and smiled "And reaction"
Moka sighed "Can we make it work?"
"How's your other half about this now that we're actually here" Moka's eyes unfocused as she talked to the seal then blushed a deep red "Much as I want to try out the attachment as well we'll have to wait" Kurumu said sharply "Do that now and he'll withdraw thinking the worst of himself. He's passed the first test, even when he thinks he's dreaming he's respectful."
"She knows but is more than a little" Moka paused "Curious and anticipating, also a little annoyed" she paused again "Irritated rather that she'll have to share"
"Patience Moka's, it's a basic drive in humans. It has to be done after he admits that he loves us. If we just allow him lust in what he thinks is a dream then there is the chance that he will become the monster we fear and then he'll be put down."
"When did you know so much?"
Kurumu put her hands under her breasts and lifted a little "Succubus remember" she smiled and moved her hands away "Just like you we learn about humans as soon as we can talk. We learn the best and the worst of them, they are our prey, just like you. I'm sure you were taught how to get food without giving yourself away. It's the same for us" she smiled "Only we're not after blood. Tsukune has all the traits of the best but is at a critical time in his development; his first love. Push too hard and it will drive him away." She smiled "He's not handsome nor was he physically strong, but I wanted him as my mate because of the other aspects, his mental strength, loyalty, kindness and love" She settled back down against Tsukune and sighed.
"He has those in spades" Moka replied as she did the same.
oOoOo
Tsukune woke and stretched, his hands not finding the edges of the bed he opened his eyes and looked around. He was in the same room as his now remembered dream, this time the daylight streamed through the open curtains. The bed wasn't his futon, it was a vast western style bed. He flopped back down and caught various scents from the bedding. They seemed to be crystal clear and almost overpowering, Moka and Kurumu, as well as a slightly smelly Tsukune. "Dream or not I need a shower" he muttered
"Then get up and have one" Kurumu's voice came from his side Tsukune turned to look at her, dressed and smiling as she stood by the bed "Unless" she offered pouting and trailing her finger around her mouth her other hand flipping at her skirt.
"Kurumu" Moka's voice came through the open door
"He's just sitting there" Kurumu complained
Moka appeared in the door and made her way to the pouting girl "Let's give him a kiss then let him get up. We can explain with brunch" she looked at Kurumu "One, two, three" both hands shot out and Moka's scissors pretended to cut Kurumu's paper. She lent forwards and pulled Tsukune into a quick kiss and stood back while Kurumu did the same. "Shower's through there" Moka pointed to a door "Clothes there" she then pointed to a wardrobe. "We got you some new ones, we haven't got school for the next seven days or until you're ready" she took Kurumu's arm "Shout when you're in the shower so Ku can come and change the sheets" They reached the door and turned to see Tsukume still in shock sitting on the bed. Moka grinned and felt for her other half "GET UP AND SHOWER" she roared in a perfect imitation of Ur-chan. They giggled as a naked Tsukune shot through the door to the bathroom, Moka carried on down to the kitchen as Kurumu turned to tidy the bedroom.
Sat in a kitchen and eating Tsukune was able to absorb much more than when he'd been in the hospital. His increase in intelligence and reasoning were beginning to show. He was already far more mature than he'd been, although she didn't say he was also showing the traits of a vampire and werewolf, Moka had to admit the slight changes in his features and the increasing bulk of his musculature was rather nice. He closed his eyes when they'd finished and thought of the things they hadn't said.
"I'd like to talk to 'Ur-chan' as you call her if I can please Moka" She lent forwards and lifted her chin so that he could remove the Rosario"
"What is it, don't you believe me?"
"Oh no I believe you" he paused "But you haven't told me the whole truth"
Moka paused and looked at him "No we haven't" she looked at Kurumu "You haven't taken from him yet"
"We need to be … a lot more intimate for me to do so at the moment"
Moka turned back "You understand why we fear a powerful human" he nodded "You know that you now produce huge amounts of yoki now; although you'd call it ki" again he nodded "You understand that you'll heal and be as fast and strong as we are even though you're human, you're already changing to resemble the best of both as far as I can tell"
He waved away the last part of her comments. "No not human" he sat up straighter "If I use the ki or yoki" he moved his head from side to side "Yoki let's stick with that. If I use this yoki to do these things then I'm as much as a monster as you two. Humans don't have this ability unless it's after years of training, it's no longer innate. They certainly can't use it the way you're describing"
"So your problem is that you don't see your-self as human"
Tsukune sighed "I do but I don't. My upbringing was as a human, and I don't feel that's any different from when I first arrived. So in that aspect I still feel human. But I know I've other less noticeable changes. My sense of smell is now far better, as is my hearing and eyesight. When you shouted at me this morning I was in the bathroom before I could even consider what I was doing. I'd moved before I was aware and was a lot faster than I could ever dream of, and as you mentioned I know I have and I am changing physically" he stopped and thought about what he was going to say next
"Tsukune I can't stay out of the Rosario for long without damaging it, you're doing alright and we have a few days for you to adjust before any decisions need to be made. Believe me when I say if you stay as the Tsukune we know then everything will be fine. Just don't get big-headed about things" she looked into his eyes "Kurumu and I were here in your life before this happened, now we can stay there" her eyes flashed a little as she said it.
"It's more than; I just wonder at the price"
"The price won't be too much; you might find it'll be negligible in the long run because the advantages will be so great. There are some things you'll have to do that you'd rather not, but that would happen anyway as a human" She turned to Kurumu "I don't like the idea of sharing; this is a vampire household, you are a wife" Then she smirked and put the seal back on.
"Vampire household, wife?" asked Tsukune as he caught Moka.
A wide eyed and white Kurumu sat at the table "Moka can explain" she squeaked
Moka was otherwise engaged when she sat up. There was obviously a long discussion as to the decision that Ur-chan had made. Finally she turned to face them "Tsukune Ur-chan said that you consider that you almost like us"
"Yes that's fair and accurate"
"Then you know that the social structures of our races is different" he nodded "And that you'll live in our society as much as your own" it was a question rather than a statement
"I want to see my family as much as I can"
"You will age normally for a while" Moka smiled "That shouldn't be a problem" she paused. "A vampire household has three levels, wives dependants and members. At the top are the wives, they are all equal and make all the decisions, there are some other aspects that we can talk about later. Next are dependants, children and others, finally are the members, these are people who live with us. Nobody can join a household without the agreement of all the wives" she looked at Tsukune "We run the house and the household. It's a custom that's fallen out of use in recent times, I think there are only a couple of traditional households left."
"So where do I fit in"
"Oh sorry you're the head of house" she smirked "It's your job to make sure that everyone is happy, you're the binding force that will keep us all together"
"There's one other level you didn't mention Moka" Kurumu was sat looking at her tapping her fingers on the table.
"At the top with the head is the mate of the household" Moka quietly said
"Mate" Tsukune asked
"Mistress of the house would be a better description"
"But we don't need a mate to start with do we" Tsukune asked
Both girls looked at him and smiled "Actually no we don't" Moka replied "we can set it up like this, with just us three to start"
Tsukune put his head in his hands and looked through his fingers "So what you're saying is that we get married. What age is normal for you?"
"Well for succubus we start at about fourteen looking, so fifteen's no real problem for us. Actually most races fifteen is acceptable if a little young"
"Vampires look when they're ready, fifteen is far too young to be a mate but not to be in a household if they want"
"Then it's just me. Since I've to live here as much as at home" he looked at the two "Are you really sure about this, fifteen?"
"Yes, and it's the best way" Moka said
"Where would we live? Rather where are we at the moment?"
"This is one of the older dormitories; it was built for the advanced classes that have now been discontinued. It's actually just a large English country house that the chairman of the school has given us to use for a while. We should be able to stay here" she took Kurumu's hand "Shall we do this formally" she asked her
They both turned to Tsukune and took one of his hands each "Tsukune Moka/Kurumu will you be my husband" they asked at the same time.
Tsukune sat looking and his mouth moved without sound. The two started to glare at him "Yes" he said in reflex.
"Don't you love us" Kurumu asked pouting
"Of course I do" Tsukune instantly replied then looked astounded at the revelation and the smiling faces.
"Say it again Tsukune" Moka whispered "Do you love us?"
Tsukune smiled as he looked into her eyes and then the Rosario "I love you Moka's but I also love Kurumu"
"So do I Tsukune and she loves us. We're not human remember so there's nothing wrong with more than one wife here in our cultures"
Kurumu looked at Moka "The seal's under pressure again isn't it?"
Moka looked at the cross on his wrist "Actually it is" they grinned "Let's leave the washing up till later and go and start our married life" Moka said as she stood.
oOoOo
Unbeknown to Tsukune both Moka and Kurumu had finished a paper whilst he'd been in the hospital and the chairman had arranged new accommodation for them. Keeping Tsukune asleep for these few days Kurumu had used all her resources to change and adjust Tsukune's mindset. As they'd worked on the paper they'd talked freely about what they were doing and where they were now going with Tsukune.
The finished paper had revealed the peeping tom as Morioka Gin. He was now trotting in front of a group of girls who wanted to beat him. He wasn't worried, in fact as he kept just in front of the pack he was finding ways to turn this to his advantage. He stopped in shock as he rounded the corner to see a young girl in a summer dress holding a pad to a third year. She turned towards him and he read the note 'Where is Morioka Gin' as his eyes looked at her face she closed the pad and made to put it into her small bag. Her expression turned from inquisitive to disappointed; Gin turned and fled through the girls, his fear scattered them to allow a quick escape. They looked at the small girl as she held the pad 'I'll deal with him' was written and she followed the scent of the terrified werewolf.
Moka was standing in the office of the chairman holding Belmont to allow her to talk without removing the seal.
"A traditional vampire household?" the chairman asked astounded
"Set up without a mate"
"Ah, that makes things a lot easier. It also demonstrates his intentions quite nicely to the other Lords" he looked at her "There's more?"
"Tsukune doesn't consider that he's still human. They have lost the innate ability with ki. I didn't realise as I was sleeping and Omote isn't as sensitive, I didn't even consider it when I was released"
"We've lost a lot hidden away, many of the border creatures will know but contact is sporadic and information is not transmitted as it should be due to petty jealousies" he looked at her stoic expression "Enough on that"
"Tsukune worries how he will support us" Moka smiled
"How very human and noble" his fingers steepled "You can stay and use the house and grounds. Whilst I would like to introduce others to him you've pre-empted that, let's just leave things to nature for now. Although I'll accept and support the household in private, when he's at school he's a normal student. Anyone can talk to him" the cowl moved forwards "Understand"
"Talk while he's at school reluctantly agreed, however"
"Anything more then I'll not interfere with a wife's duties" he paused "However no deaths"
"We haven't told him everything yet; we'll wait awhile to inform him of his full responsibilities"
"Not too long, Aono Kurumu's mother will arrive soon, now that she's taken a husband. Also after the meeting both of you might consider a change in your names"
"My father"
"A problem, however whilst you're here he doesn't know where you are. He may have to be introduced at some much later stage, but after Tsukune has learnt to utilise his new abilities" he indicated the whip in Moka's hand "To that end keep Belmont for a while it will allow you to start training Tsukune and Kurumu. I'll need your Rosario to have the adjustments done when we meet, but with Belmont there should be no problems" he waved in dismissal "The mid term results will be posted just before lunch, I expect that your other family members will improve their grades by the end of the year. Belmont is only to be used within the limits and gardens of the house, do not bring him to school unless I tell you"
"Again reluctantly agreed" Moka said as she shut the door
oOoOo
"Well how did you do" Moka asked
"One hundred and twenty eight, slap bang in the middle. You"
"Thirteen. The chairman said that your grades will have to improve, but that shouldn't be a problem now. How did Kurumu do?"
Tsukune waved to the lower end of the board "Not well"
"Her grades have also got to improve" Moka sighed "Let's get lunch, you need to loose some yoki"
"That's just your excuse to have some blood" Tsukune grinned as they moved away from the boards "How does it taste now?"
"As good as ever, if not better" she looked towards him as she took his hand then her face hardened as she saw three large boys advancing on a small girl in a witches costume. She let go of Tsukune's hand and rushed over.
"Stop" she shouted as she stood in front of the girl "I don't know what started this but I won't allow you to bully anyone"
Tsukune had followed and stopped behind Moka. With his more sensitive hearing he heard them back off as Moka's mere presence had attracted a large crowd, but also that they were planning retribution later.
The girl, Yukari joined them for lunch, where Tsukune's promise that no PDA's were allowable was sorely put to the test. It wasn't the A for affection, it was the A for ability that was under most stress first. Yukari had declared her love for Moka even though she was just eleven. She then decided that Tsukune wasn't worth being near 'her' Moka. Glancing at Moka and the Rosario whilst accepting blows from magically animated brooms Tsukune was sure that Ur-chan was rolling on the floor clutching her stomach as tears poured from her eyes. Tsukune decided to talk to Kurumu, however his pint size tormentor used her magic so that they were actually engaged in a rather explicit PDA of affection when Moka found them. Moka went to find Yukari as Kurumu explained the problem.
"A border being" Tsukune repeated
"In the societies they are treated as human, they are discriminated against would be a nice way to describe it. Persecuted would be more accurate" Kurumu explained "I doubt she's ever had a friend in her life, coming here would be her first contact with the other races"
"Well I know how that feels" he smiled "We'd better find them before anything else happens" he frowned "The three who were bullying her were going to wait and catch her later, we'd better hurry"
"A problem" Kurumu asked
"No, just a feeling that something's going to happen" Tsukune replied
Seeing Moka and Yukari threatened by three lizard men wasn't the best introduction to Tsukune's abilities. His promise that he wouldn't display his abilities meant that his mind had to make his body react at its previous human speed. Grabbing Yukari away from a clawed arm would have been child's play instead he ended up with a torn and bloody blazer and shirt. Grabbing Moka's Rosario did however go as planned since he was irritated enough not to care.
"We need a lot more practice Tsukune" Ur-chan stated as they sat down at home, Belmont in her hand "Unless that was deliberate"
"Not totally it wasn't. I was trying to be quick, but still within the bounds of a normal human. It doesn't help that I've really no idea what I'm doing"
"That's a difficult balance" she sighed "But one you've got to try for at the moment"
"Practice after tea" Tsukune agreed. He looked up "Where's Kurumu"
"Getting Yukari settled in. She can't stay in the dormitory block she's too vulnerable there. Seems she's upset a lot of people so she'll need to stay here until she's apologised" she looked at his face "You don't get a say since it's not directly affecting you but"
"It actually did worry me. She's too young to be on her own"
"You're soft Tsukune" her voice lightened and she smiled "Going to adopt her then?"
"That would take the agreement of my wives if I understand correctly" he grinned back
"Yes it would"
