Rosario Vampire: Search within the Shadow
Disclaimers: I do not own Rosario Vampire.
Warning: Some of the pairings I did might be spoilers to the original Rosario Vampire series, but I wouldn't know since I don't own the series so don't be mad at me for something I have absolutely no knowledge of.
Author's Note: The time period of this story is little bit after everybody has graduated from Youkai Academy.
Summary: Tsukune and Moka have finally decided to be together and became blood mates. Tsukune became a second born vampire, and was accepted into Issa's family of vampires. Moka still wears her rosary but the Inner Moka is out more often than before. Kurmuru decided to try and go out with Gin after Tsukune made his decision, but the relationship isn't going that great. Gin is as perverted as before and still takes pictures of girls changing and other stuff. Mizore got married to someone from her village and starting to have kids with him. Yukari became a teacher for Youkai Academy after she graduated. Ruby is still the Headmaster's assistant and still does jobs for him, when ordered to. After Kokoa graduated, she decided to head back home and live with her family like when she was a kid. So basically everybody is living there own lives even though they still keep in contact of each other at times.
-Chapter 1-
A boy wakes up from a nightmare, covered with sweat and breathing heavily. He looks around, and realizing doesn't know where he is at. Then he gets out of bed wearing only his boxers. He starts to look for his black slightly torn jeans. After he puts them on, he realizes that he has white tribal tattoo marking with black outlines a little around his arms. He looks around the room to find a mirror and walks to it, he sees with his crimson red slitted eyes, his short snowy white hair, his slightly pointy ears, and his palish toned upper body that is somewhat covered by tribal tattoo designs which he thought were cool. Deciding to look around the room again and he finds an open balcony. He walks up to the balcony and sees mountains and a crimson moon in the clear velvet sky, which he believes that its night time. After looking at the moon for a bit, he calms down and starts thinking about his nightmare.
~His POV~
I sigh and ask out loud. "Why do I always have that same nightmare every time I close my eyes? I don't know what it's suppose to mean. Also, who is that girl and how does she know my name?"
A woman lightly knocks on the door so she doesn't wake me and says "Hello? Are you alright? Are you awake yet?"
She waits for a reply but hears nothing, so she decides to enter the room to see if I was awake. She looks at the bed and sees that I wasn't there, then she starts feeling wind lightly blowing at her long pink hair.
So she walks up to the entrance of the balcony with crossed arms and a smile. "I see that you're awake, that's always a good sign." She said
I slightly turn my face to her and gave her a small smirk. "Hmph, I guess so. I'm assuming it was you who found me, right?"
"That's right, I found you passed out in this world with some slightly torn clothes, that was slightly covered with blood." She replied
I turn my head from the woman back to the moon "I see, if you don't mind me asking but why did you save me instead of killing me when you found me? I would've been better off dead than alive." I asked alittle coldly
"Why would you say that? I'm sure that your family or friends would be sad if you were gone." She asks with a worried look on her face
I sighed and replied "I've never met my real parents, all of my families are mostly dead or they want absolutely nothing to do with me, and I rarely have any friends, people are scared of me because of what I am in the human world."
I turned and looked at her again and said "I assume you're a special kind of pureblood vampire, judging by your aura. Am I wrong?"
"No, I am a Shinso Vampire. Does it bother you?" she asks
"No, it doesn't matter to me. So back to my question, why didn't you kill me? You already know or at least figured out that I'm a hybrid, right?" I asked a little bluntly
She shook her head and said with a sweet smile "It doesn't matter to me if you're a hybrid or pureblood or even human for that matter."
I lightly chuckle "Hmph, you are defiantly different from the things I've heard about pureblood vampires. They would usually be disgusted with me or would want to kill me. May I ask your name?" I asked kindly
She chuckles "Of course, my name is Akasha Bloodriver, I am the queen of all vampires and the leader of the Three Great Dark Lords." She replies
"Oh, thank you for finding me and saving me." I said while kneeling down to her to show her respect.
Akasha slightly giggles "Rise young man. You don't need to be so formal. By the way, what is
your name?" she asks
I rose and replied "My name is Neon Shadow, son of Leon Bloodsworth and Lilith Shadow."
Akasha's emerald eyes widened from the names Neon had just mentioned and said with a smile
"I knew them. They were good friends of mine."
"I see, so I assume you now already know what I am, right?" I asked
"Yes, you are a vampire and a demon hybrid, your father was a vampire and your mother was a demon from the Shadow Clan. Now I understand why pureblooded vampires would want to kill you." She replied with a saddened look on her face.
"Exactly, it was strictly taboo for a vampire and a demon to breed a child, even though they were friends. It was dangerous, since back then the monsters didn't have enough knowledge to control that kind of child's power. Also if a child is alive after birth, they are to be killed along with their parents if they survive. I got lucky somehow when I was born even though my parents died on that day, which was round 18 years ago." I said with my head moving downward
Akasha looks at me and places a hand on my shoulder and says with a smile "But that is in the past and things have changed since then, it still doesnt matter to me if you're a hybrid or not."
I smiled and a tear slowly came down on my face "Thank you Akasha-samma, you've just made me feel little better about myself." I replied
She blushed while smiling back and said "You're welcome Neon, but just call me Akasha and I'll just call you Neo for short, if you want."
I blushed and said "Ok Akasha and of course you can call me Neo. Uh not to change the subject, but can you tell me where am I and what are these markings I have on my upper body?"
"Of course, you are in Castle Shuzen owned by Lord Issa Shuzen, my ex mate. Also all of the markings on your body is a seal that is used to seal your inner demon, to be able to use its power you will have to learn how to use it and so you can have some control of yourself if you ever go berserk. But if you don't learn how to control its power, it will destroy your soul and turn you into a mindless rampaging monster which will force us the Dark Lords to destroy you." She replied
"I see, thank you for that. I have another question, what's gonna happen to me now, since I have no family left to take me in?" I asked in a curious face
She barely blushed and replied "Well, you can either stay here until you find a place of your own, or leave this castle and go live where you were living before, or you can stay here and consider this place as your home. It's your choice, but it's fine with me if you stay here."
I smiled and bowed to her while saying "Thank you Akasha, may I speak to Lord Shuzen for his permission to allow me to stay?"
"You're welcome and of course, but first you should put on some more clothes." She replied while slightly chuckling and blushing from checking out the muscles on my toned body
I chuckled and said "Alright, just give me a few minutes."
~Normal POV~
Neon looks around the room in search of his clothes. After that, he puts on his tight fitting muscle shirt, then he puts on his black button shirt, rolls up its sleeves to reveal his forearms and undo two bottons at the top of his shirt to reveal a part of his chest and neck, he finds his white bandage wraps and wraps it on both of his forearms, he puts on a sliver-chained amuletwith a crimson red jewel that has a black slit design that he normally wears, then he puts on his black biker boots, and puts on a black blindfold to cover his eyes and part of his pointy ears. While Akasha waits, she calls a maid in to send a message to everyone in the household that a man is requesting/asking for an audience with them.
"Alright, I'm all set. What do you think?" he asks with a slight chuckle
She blushed and replied "You look stunning and appealing, Neo. Since you're ready, I will lead you to him."
"Thank you Akasha, after you milady." He said while opening the bedroom door for her
"Why thank you, you're a fine gentleman." She said while giggling
After they left the room, they walked down the halls toward the throne room. While they are walking down the halls, Neon decides to ask something.
"Uh Akasha, what's gonna happen once we enter the throne room? Should I expect anything?" the boy asked nervously
"Well, once you enter the throne room, you will see him with his children, his current wife, and myself will be present. Show him with utmost respect, speak to him clearly, there is a chance where you will have to fight to prove yourself how strong you are to them. Anything else before we enter?" she asks
"Uh yes, I have another question. What should I do about my demon powers, even though I'm part vampire?" he asks trying to be cautious
"Hmm, well I think you shouldn't mention that your part demon since Issa is somewhat old fashioned. So I don't know what will happen if he knows what you truly are. So only tell him that you're a special kind of vampire. If he asks what kind of vampire you are then tell him that you do not know so he'll tell you what kind of vampire you are. So only use your demon powers when you absolutely have no choice. Also since you have your blindfold on, it lowers your aura which won't track unwanted attention. Understand?" she asks
He nods and says "Yes, I'm ready."
He opens the doors to allow Akasha to enter the room before he enters, then he enters after her and follows her down the aisle until they reach near the man sitting on the throne along with his children standing near him and his current wife sitting near him. Once they got near the throne, they began kneeling before Issa and his family.
"Rise Akasha and stand by me." Issa said to Akasha
She rose up and walks to Issa to give him a hug, then she walks over to her daughter, her step daughters, and step son and stands by them and Issa. Neon was still kneeling, waiting to be called.
"Rise young man and state your purpose." Issa said demanding Neon
He rose and looked straight at Issa even when blindfolded and said loud and clearly "Lord Shuzen, I Neon Shadow have requested/asked an audience with you all to ask for your permissions to allow me to stay here in this castle."
Everybody except Akasha and Issa, eyes widened with shock. Issa got silent and began thinking what to say, then a voice called out and yelled. "How dare you ask for something like that? Are you stupid or something? This castle is for vampires, not for some weakling like yourself, I'm gonna kill you!"
She dashes towards him at blinding speed and attempts to punch Neon in the face to kill him, but just before it makes contact, it gets blocked by his right hand and didn't get forced back. After that, the woman's eyes widened with disbelief along with everyone else except for Issa who was alittle surprised.
"That's enough Gyokuro!" Issa yells at his current wife
She steps back while giving Neon a murderous glare then walks back to her seat. Neon smirked and shakes his right hand in the air for a bit to loosen it from the punch earlier.
Issa looks back at Neon and said "Young man, I can tell that you're strong so you might as well take off that blindfold to show us what you really are."
Issa already figured out that Neon is a hybrid, but was curious on what kind of hybrid he really is. Everybody except Akasha was wonder why Neon was blindfolded and what kind of monster he is.
"Hmph, as you wish my lord, since you already figured out that I'm a hybrid monster" Neon replied calmly while starting to take off the blindfold
Everyone except Issa and Akasha was surprised that Neon is a hybrid, but Gyokuro wanted to attempt to kill him again. Once Neon took off his blindfold, his ears came out but his eyes were still closed. He breathes slowly then he opens his eyes, revealing his crimson slitted eyes to everybody, then his aura flared up which nearly consumed the entire room. Everybody except for Akasha were shocked with disbelief and extremely amazed about how strong and how dark Neon's aura was.
"I see, so you're a hybrid of a demon and vampire." Issa said
"That's correct my lord, I still ask for your permission to stay here in this castle. I'll stay here until I have a place of own, if that is what you and your family want. I don't want to intrude so that's why I'm asking." Neon said
"Hmm I understand, what do you say about this, Gyokuro?" Issa asks his blonde haired wife, already knowing her answer
"I say he should die for embarrassing me and he is a hybrid, not a pureblood like us!" She said out loud
"What do you say about this, Akasha?" he his ex mate, already knowing her answer
"I say he stays as long as he wants, since he is nice and respectful to us. If I were you I would look closely at his amulet, you'll be surprised once you see it. " She said in a kind tone
Issa focuses his sights onto Neon's amulet and was shocked with disbelief and asks "Where did you get that amulet?"
"It belonged to my father. My father's name was Leon Bloodsworth, he was a pureblood vampire. My mother's name was Lilith Shadow, she was a demon from the Shadow Clan." He said in honor of their names
"I knew them, they were my and Akasha's good friends. I'm sorry for your loss." Issa said in a slight sadden tone
"It's alright, I don't really dwell in the past. So what does your children say about me staying here?" Neon on asks
"Kokoa, what do you say about him staying here?" Issa asks his red headed daughter
"It's unacceptable, he is not worthy to stay here. He is nothing but a weakling who deserves to know his place." She said trying to sound prideful
"Hmm, how about you Moka? What do you say about this?" He asks his daughter with silver hair
"I honestly don't care, but I could use a different sparing partner knowing how strong he is so far but like I said I don't care." She said not exactly caring at all
"Ok, how about you Tsukune, what is your say in this?" He asks his son-in-law
"Hmm I say he should be welcomed here since you and Akasha knew his parents and it wouldn't show any respect if you force him to leave or be killed." He replies with an honest tone of fairness
"Alright, how about you Kahula? What do you think? He asks his daughter with blond hair
"Hybrid or not, he is quite attractive and he seems nice for someone to talk to. I say let him stay." She said with a smile on her face
"Alright last but not least, Akuha what do you say about him staying with us?" He asked his daughter with black and two silver highlight hairs
"Hmm, he seems interesting and strong, but I don't think he is welcomed and should just kill him. He could be a an assassin for all we know and judging by his aura he is dangerous. Since I've haven't had blood in awhile, I'm a bit curious on how his blood tastes knowing how strong he is." She said before she started licking her lips for wanting to taste Neon's blood.
All of the girls except Gyokuro blushed after that comment about wondering how Neon's blood tasted. While the girls were having thoughts about how his blood taste and how they're gonna get it, which caused them to blush. Issa has made his decision about Neon allowing to stay in the castle.
"Alright, it seem we have a draw on deciding on allowing you to stay in this household. So I've made my decision, I here by grant you permission to stay here in my castle until whenever you decide to leave" he announces out loud to Neon
Neon bows to show respect and said "Thank you Lord Shuzen."
"However, you must fight someone here to allow yourself to stay" Issa said with a smirk while everybody was confused
"Wait, I thought you said I can stay?" Neon asked all confused
"This is just a test, if you pass then you can stay but if not then you will have to leave or be killed by your opponent." Issa said with an evil grin
Neon sighed and said "Very well, the opponent that I choose . . . is . . .
-End of Chapter 1-
A/N: In this fanfic, a Shadow Clan Demons are a type of monsters that have their own humanities and that is very similar to witches/warlocks or mages that can use spell books except they don't use staffs or wands, they have their own unique demon powers(that reacts to emotion), and some can transform. They also can be good fighters if trained properly. Their trademarks are snowy white hair, bright sky blue eyes, and slightly pointy ears. They are basically immortal, like vampires. Their only weakness is a holy weapon stabbed into their hearts, which is hard to do and that nobody knows about, except for certain amount of people.
I hope this version is better than the one before, lemons will come later on. Please review if you think it's better or not and also vote on whom you think Neon should choose to fight. Choose either Issa, Gyokuro, Akasha, Akuha, Kahula, Tsukune, Moka, or Kokoa. It can be 1 vs. 1, 1 vs. 2, 1 vs. 3, 1 vs. 4, 1 vs. 5, or 1 vs. all. After I look at the reviews and what people vote for, I'll use that for the second chapter.
