Blue sky with a few clouds was overhead a school that might've given the impression of a haunted house, as it had the stereotypical design given to those kinds of houses, with sloping roofs and dark windows. The forest too would've given any passerby a slight feeling of unease, as if it held unnatural things within its premises. But for the students that were headed to school due to first bell ringing, this was completely normal, and no one felt ill at ease. Then again, Youkai Academy wasn't just any school.

The wind blew gently as one of the females headed to class, a very cute pink-haired girl dressed in the uniform of the school, called out with a smile, "Good Morning, Tsukune!"

One of the boys who was headed to class, dressed in the male uniform, turned his head and smiled back. "Good morning, Moka-san."

He had been waiting for her just outside the school and now looked dreamily at her. Likewise, the pink-haired girl had begun to stare at Tsukune with a similar look in her bright green eyes.

"Tsukune…"

"STOP IT!" Yelled out a very well-endowed girl who had short blue hair, as she crashed into Moka, who had been just inches away from Tsukune's neck. "You were about to suck Tsukune's blood again, weren't you?" However, before Moka could answer, the girl jumped onto Tsukune, his head going in between her breasts. "I won't let her suck your blood, Tsukune."

"Kurumu-chan, could you possibly get off…" Tsukune pleaded, as he was very slowly being suffocated. To answer his request, a basin dropped out of nowhere on Kurumu's head.

"Take that, you big-breasted woman! " A dark-haired girl who looked perhaps 12 said. She was dressed in witch's attire, her wand raised, before she herself latched onto Tsukune.

"Jealous that I can get Tsukune with my sex appeal, while you have nothing in that department, Yukari-chan?" Kurumu said, making it a point to jab at Yukari's chest as she said this. This of course, made the two soon get into a fight.

"Tsukune…" a new, soft voice said behind Tsukune, as a girl with short purple hair dressed in striped long sleeves and a skirt seemingly appearing out of nowhere, a lollipop in mouth.

"Mizore-chan…" Tsukune replied, before she was now on Tsukune's arm. However, he managed to pull away from her, and went back over to Moka, before she smiled, and the entire group headed to class, with Yukari and Kurumu being broken up. Of course, a few straggling guys shot Tsukune nasty looks as they went in, but most everyone else had already gotten to class, and taken their seats.

For anyone else, the events that had occurred this morning might've seemed like a scene of pure Chaos, but not for Tsukune Aono. In fact, that was the daily routine for him, and he'd just simply gotten used to it. Unlike all the other students, he wasn't a true monster. Then again, only a few people knew what he really was, a human. But as of late, even that was becoming something of the past as well.



"Onee-sama, please come out before you go to class!" a new voice rang out as a redheaded young girl ran towards the group, with a giant hammer in hand. Everyone in the group got rather frightened looks, before Kurumu quickly stuck her foot out, causing the girl to trip, as well as the hammer to revert back to the bat Ko-chan.

"Kokoa-san, how many times…" Tsukune started, before hearing the bell that signaled they were just about to be late. "Er… we'll talk later."

The group rushed to class, just barely making it, though they did managed to get a slightly disapproving look from Nekome-sensei, who seemed overall human minus the fact that there seemed to be cat-earlike partitions in her hair.

The day went on as usual, with the girls attempting to get Tsukune focused solely on one of them, though this was always thwarted by one of the other girls attached to Tsukune. Soon enough, they ended up at their newspaper club meeting, where Kokoa from before had joined them, making her their most recent member. Also there was a girl with long black hair and a dress, Ruby, who was something of an advisor appointed by the chairman himself, and the other witch of the group who was also after Tsukune. But currently, all antics were off as they talked, and Ruby ended up telling some very interesting news.

"Did you guys hear about the new transfer student? She just arrived in Japan a week ago, I heard. Apparently she's half-Japanese, half-German."

This was news to all the others. Kurumu, not thinking, asked, "So what kind of monster is she?"

This immediately got her hard looks, as the rule was to never know about another student's true form, even though this group had broken that rule several times over. Ruby then said, "Well, anyways, it appears she's in the same grade as you guys. And she's really cute too."

Suddenly, all the girls were giving death glares to Ruby. "Did you just say she was cute?"

Ruby sweatdropped, then said, "Well, even if she is, Tsukune's already got his hands full with us already."

Kurumu said, "Well, as long as she leaves my Tsukune alone, I don't care."

Moka immediately responded, "What do you mean, your Tsukune?"

The other girls, minus Kokoa, agreed with this, and soon there was fighting amongst them. Kokoa wore an incredulous look, still not being able to comprehend the madness that was the Newspaper Club. Tsukune merely sweatdropped as the meeting ended with the usual chaos.

The rest of the day came and went as any day should, so long as they weren't involved in any sort of dangerous plot, which they often would find themselves in. But for the while, everything seemed peaceful.



The next day and the usual routine came around as well, and then came the one interruption to an otherwise normal day.

Nekome-sensei stood at the front of the class this day, and spoke, "Class, I have an announcement. Very recently, we had someone transfer all the way from Germany to Japan, and she's now going to be part of our class."

A girl with wavy blond hair walked into the classroom, dressed in the school uniform. A stone pendant around her neck bounced lightly as she walked in. Of mid height and medium build, and a figure that wasn't exceptional but still attractive enough, she faced the class. Her blond hair flowed past her shoulders, framing a sweet and delicate face, with mysterious grey-blue eyes. Her pink lips smiled politely as she was introduced by Nekome-sensei, who had written her name on the board. "this is Lorelei Mizusei. Please make her feel welcome."

She bowed to them. "Nett, Sie zu treffen…" She suddenly stopped, blushing faintly as she realized her mistake. To their credit, none of the other students could even guess what language she had started off in and were looking at her with blank looks.

She managed a quick bow to them again. "Ano…sumimasen." She took a deep breath and this time, she spoke in crystal clear Japanese. "Konnichiwa, watashi wa Mizusei Lorelei desu." With that, she gave a big friendly smile. "Treat me well, Okay?"

The majority of the male population had now gone gaga over Lorelei, but Moka's other side had her comments, which she told the pink-haired vampire alone through the rosary. "Be warned of this one. She may seem innocent, but there's something about her…something powerful that I can't place… hidden behind that sweet exterior."

Moka looked at her rosary, slightly confused. However, that confusion was nothing compared to the incident that followed.

Lorelei looked over the class with her now clear blue eyes, and they suddenly stopped on Tsukune, lighting up brightly. A beautiful smile crossed her face, as she walked over to Tsukune, and called out a very strange name.

"Herr Rhine!" With that, Lorelei enveloped Tsukune in a massive hug.
