Chapter 2

Juuban District:

Usagi smiles when she spies Rin out in the hall as she just skids into her homeroom in time. Rin had been accepted into Crossroads Junior High, meaning Usagi now had a study partner. Plus, her boyfriend was now close at hand to deal with her fan boys. When lunch rolls around they both start noticing the students auras seem to be off. That was when they heard about the new fortune telling house that had opened up. " Looks like we know our next target to investigate, Usa-taicho. "

The whole school knew Usagi happened to be a demon huntress, Rin addressing her as taicho told them that he was also a demon hunter, one less experienced than the girl whom had been trained as one since she was a toddler. Usagi takes the time to change her outfit once school lets out. She came out of the girls bathroom wearing a blood red halter top, sapphire blue fingerless fighting gloves with amethyst cuffs, dark gray booty shorts, and black combat boots with sapphire blue soles. Rin had changed into his usual street clothes since all of his were made to handle demon fights. Rin has to immediately pop in one of the blood pops that had been made for him when he sees Usagi emerge from the bathroom.

Usagi smirks, she knew the effect it had on Rin when she wore blood red, " Ready to deal with another problem, Rin? "

" Always, Usa-chan. " Rin says, pulling out his sports bottle as well. The Albarn Clan had been all too happy to supply him with a special sports bottle that would keep his rabbits blood fresh and would automatically refill as well. Hell, the bottle was even engraved runically so only he could touch it and it kept the blood at the temperature he preferred it at.

Seeing his girlfriend in blood red always increased his blood lust, he loved her in bold colors but dammit, blood red turned him on like nothing else could. She knew it too, which meant she wanted to play a little rougher than usual today. With him around she was managing to get her homework done in school. As he gulps down some rabbits blood he follows her to the new fortune telling place, almost whimpering at how her shorts hugged her curves just right. It was going to be a long two years, he just knew it.

Luna watches the pair go off after the new fortune telling place, she was pretty sure it was a front for the Dark Kingdom. She just didn't understand why the girl meant to be Sailor Moon was refusing to use the broach. Rin lengthens his stride until he catches up with her and wraps an arm around her shoulders, his system was levelling out with the rabbits blood sating his blood lust. Rin may get annoyed at some of his more annoying hanyou tendencies but, he honestly wouldn't trade being a hanyou for anything.

" You good to go now, Rin? "

" Yeah, I'm good, you vixen. " Rin mutters.

Usagi wraps her arm around his waist, they rarely got to do normal couple stuff since Rin had to sate his demon side with her blood. " Tomorrow you and I are going to an amusement park just to have some fun. It's been too long since I took you out on a proper date. "

" My ward or yours? "

" Yours since demon hunters are more prevalent here and less likely to try and kill me. " Rin states.

Usagi was still fuming over that incident. She had reported it to the higher up of the Demon Hunting Guild whom were going to deliver an ultimatum to the Vatican and True Cross Academy to teach their damned students to not just attack hanyou's for merely existing. Especially when said hanyou happened to be one of theirs and the hunting partner to an Albarn. No one wanted to piss off an Albarn demon hunter because they got creative with their revenge. That and they had good relations with Youkai unlike the Exorcist community.

" Hopefully your status as my demon hunting partner will make the more idiotic ones pause before attacking you. You have been taught the Albarn distress signal, right? " Usagi asks him, if she lost him because of some idiot exorcist she would be pissed off.

" I do, your grandmother made sure I got properly trained, including using my powers. The exorcist community would always be looking for an excuse to end me simply due to whom my sire happens to be. I'm not my fucking father yet they'd put his sins upon me, the fucking hypocrites, going on and on about redemption, yet condemning so many for circumstances beyond their control. " Rin rants, yeah, he had issues with the Vatican, whom wouldn't in his shoes, being the son of Satan.

Usagi lets him get his rant out so it doesn't poison him. Rin generally went to the Albarn family lands and sparred with one of the demons in order to work his aggression out. That was tantamount to keeping in harmony with his demon half. The exorcists would make him believe that he had to choose one or the other instead of balancing both of his sides. The blood thing kept his demon half happy for the most part since even his demon half understood why he was waiting to claim Usagi as his mate. Youkai had evolved with the times and his demon half understood about certain mortal or ningen laws.

The man whom had raised him just didn't understand that unlike his brother Rin needed to feel his adrenaline singing in his blood stream. He got that either through fighting or making out with her since Usagi wasn't going to be submissive. Rin actually enjoyed their dominance battles since it meant he wouldn't have a weak mate. There were times when she won their battles and Rin immensely enjoyed her ministrations.

While they're dealing with the current youma they are observed by a high ranking pair of Exorcists whom attack Rin just as he finishes off the youma. Usagi's senses snap taut, and she barely gets in the way with a barrier up to protect herself, only she wasn't expecting the holy artifact which slams through her barrier and just barely misses her heart. Rin spins around even as Usagi fires off the Albarn family distress signal, horror, fear, and rage warring for domination in him. His arms wrap around her and hold the artifact in place. He'd had enough of Usagi's blood that holy artifacts no longer affected him. Rin can barely hold down the anguished cry that wants to escape knowing that he couldn't let those damned exorcists begin to suspect how much hurting her would hurt him.

The exorcists come closer only to have Tsukino Umika nee Albarn arrive in person. Upon seeing what had happened to her granddaughter she levels her nastiest glare at the unimportant exorcists. Unimportant due to the fact that she didn't know their names, but she was going read them the riot act. Said exorcists freeze when they see her, " Who had the abysmally foolish idea to attack my granddaughter and her partner with their backs turned? "

Rin looks down at the blonde cradled against his body, thankfully he did happen to be a hanyou, that made it easier for him to keep her still. The scent of her blood would be driving him wild if not for the fact that her blood was slowly coating the hand that was holding that thrice cursed holy artifact in place. His demon side was enraged at what had happened to her, but also knew that Umika would do far worse than they could. Every hanyou suffered from D.I.D due to their human and demon blood. Demon Rin was, as stated, pissed off, but concern for Usagi muted it. Human Rin was terrified and pissed in equal measures.

Two more Albarn's arrive just then, Umika had the exorcists well in hand while they focus on the heiress. Usagi winces when they pull the artifact out, " Rin, you know what you need to do. Umika will keep the exorcists in check. "

Usagi remains pliant enough for Rin to clamp down on the right side of her neck without causing undue damage. Demon Rin already knows what is needed, feeding his power through his future mate while Human Rin keeps her still. The exorcists stiffen when they see the half demon spawn of Satan bite down on the heiress to a prominent demon hunting line. Once she's healed just enough to stop bleeding the other two Albarns teleport off with Usagi and Rin. Even with Rin healing some of the damage the blonde was still in bad shape. The head healer sighs after she examines Usagi before looking at Rin, the whole Albarn Clan knew Rin was waiting until Usagi was sixteen to claim her as his mate.

" Rin, there was more damage done than we thought, the only way she even has a chance is if you let her drink your blood. "

Rin doesn't even think about it, even with her eyes glazed over in fever, Usagi was aware enough to have some idea as to what was going on. Rin uses his own teeth to open up a vein in his left wrist, cradling the back of Usagi's neck with his right arm. He put his wrist to her mouth thankful she understood enough to start drinking, " This isn't how I wanted this to happen, Usa-chan. "

They would only be truly mated when Usagi was able to bite him herself to take in his blood. Until then they would be considered engaged at this point as youkai would be able to tell she'd ingested his blood at one point. It was only when her eyes cleared up that Rin pulls his wrist away, " You all right, Usa-chan? "

" I will be, Rin. "

Rin doesn't even consider going home, he just settles himself beside Usagi, his place was with her at the moment.

Shinagawa:

Umika drags the worthless exorcists straight to Fujimoto Shiro, " Fujimoto-san. "

Shiro winces when he sees Umika, " Umika-san, it has been far too long. "

" These idiots attacked by granddaughter and heiress along with her demon hunting partner from behind. Said partner is your eldest adoptive child. You won't be able to dynamite him away from her right now since his demon half views her as his future mate. He only left the idiots for me to deal with because I can do far worse. "

Yukio pales when he hears what Umika says, " Is Onii-chan all right? "

" Physically he's fine. It was my granddaughter whom protected her partner and got impaled by a holy artifact, one Rin held in place to keep it from moving and hurting her further. " Umika states, tossing the fools in front of her before stomping down hard on each of their manhoods.

While Shiro and Yukio wince they can't find it in them to feel any sympathy for the idiots, " How is your granddaughter? "

" I have been dealing with these fools and thus have no idea what is going on currently. Rin will most likely spend the night at my place since we demon hunters don't give a damn about heritage. Inform your superiors if my granddaughter or Rin is gone after again it will be war between our communities. " Umika states.

Shiro winces again, " Understood, Yukio and myself will never harm Rin. "

" I know, which is why I came to you. Tell that fool of a half-brother of theirs that Rin does not need his help. I made damned certain he was trained properly and had that damned seal on him redone. What InuTaisho did for his half-demon pup we did for Rin with Totosai's help. " Umika states.

Umika's Home:

Rin looks up at the ceiling even as Usagi snuggles into him. Today would be the first day in months that he hadn't gotten some of her blood fresh. " Rin, you can take some of my blood. I'll be fine. "

" You'll be wearing wrist bands tomorrow. "

" I don't care, I know how much it hurts you to not get my blood fresh. " Usagi murmurs.

Rin winces, after that first time it had literally hurt him to not take some of Usagi's blood fresh daily. The pops could tide him over, but he needed her blood fresh from her body once a day, it would be more if he happened to be a full demon of his type. Rin rubs her left wrist with his right thumb, " Are you sure you can handle me taking what I need right now, Usa-chan? "

" I am, I also know you won't take too much either. " Usagi says.

Rin sighs before pulling her left wrist up to his mouth and biting down on her radial artery. Thankfully his saliva happened to have healing properties, once he's had his fill he runs his tongue over his bite mark, dipping it in to each tooth mark. This bite he would heal more thoroughly. The hum of pleasure coming from Usagi told him all he needed to know. Once done healing her latest mark from him Rin just pulls her closer, " Tomorrow I'll take the edge off and give you what you silently asked for today, Usa-chan, tonight you just recover. "

Usagi settles herself in his arms, she could live with being painfully aroused with a promise like that. Hours later Umika comes in to find her granddaughter snuggled into Rin's embrace sound asleep. Rin's eyes slit open enough to see whom had entered the room before he lets himself fall asleep again. Umika slips over to the bed and draws the covers up around the sleeping teens, " Thank you for saving my granddaughter, Rin. " Not only does she drop a kiss on Usagi's forehead she also drops one on his.

Rin's eyes snap open and he stares at her in shock, " Rin, don't ever let anyone tell you differently. You are a good boy and I can think of no one I trust with my heiress more. I won't hold it against you if you do fully have to claim her as your mate, or if your hormones decide they've waited long enough. "

The hanyou blinks at her in incomprehension, only his adoptive father and Yukio had ever shown this kind of faith in him other than the girl sleeping in his arms. " Sleep, Rin. We can talk later. "

Once safely ensconced in a sound proof room the matriarch of the Albarn Clan lets loose with her temper. Rin was almost as bad as her granddaughter when it came to being shown simple affection. Rin had no problems showing Usagi affection, that was done in every minute gesture, even the biting was affectionate for the particular breed of demon Rin happened to have making up half of his genetics. He was so careful with Usagi even when he was rougher with her he always kept her safety as his foremost concern.

Usagi's parents, her worthless son and his pathetic wife, had been informed that Usagi was staying the night at her place. Rin's family had been informed when she dropped the idiots off. The fact that her darling magomusume had to drink Rin's blood to survive was troubling as Umika knew firsthand how fast Usagi healed. Rin actually healed at about the same rate as Usagi too.

North Pole Point D:

Queen Beryl and Jadeite were quite put out that their plans were being derailed by a pair of demon hunters. One of which was being hunted by exorcists, telling them the one was a hanyou at the least. The navy haired male teen had taken out the youma this time while the girl had protected him from the exorcists, " Jadeite, ensnare the exorcists to do our bidding. "

Jadeite smirks, " As my queen wishes. "

Shinagawa:

Fujimoto Shiro, after lambasting the fools that would most likely never have children, had immediately upgraded the wards around the church with Yukio's help. Finding out Rin had such a good career and a powerful demon hunting clan backing him eased the worries of the exorcist whom had raised the older hanyou. He could feel an ill wind coming which was why he was upgrading the church's wards.

Juuban:

Ikuko fumes at the fact that her useless daughter was spending the night at her mother-in-law's home. Ikuko knew she and Kenji only had a roof over their head as long as they didn't piss the old hag off too badly. The mother of two goes to spend some quality time with her son. Shingo was so much better at pleasing her than Kenji was anyhow. Plus, Shingo loved it when she punished him when they played adults games together. Ikuko puts on the skimpiest lingerie she owns before grabbing her toys.

Shingo takes in the sight of his mother standing in the door way of his bedroom, licking his lips even as his blood rushes south. He was going to have a lot of fun tonight with his kaa-chan. Shingo doesn't even hesitate to shuck his clothes as Ikuko enters his room and shuts the door. Leaving behind the disturbing mother/son relationship Naru can be found just finishing up her homework before texting the delicious Okumura Yukio. She had managed to draw him out of his shell the previous day and was hoping to at least count on him to be her date to dances so she didn't have to resort to asking Umino.

Tuxedo Kamen observes the most recent gem he had stolen, it still wasn't the silver crystal. How would he ever find the right gem anyhow? Plus, whom was that princess that kept asking him to find the gem in the first place? Luna is beside herself with worry when she saw the girl whom would be Sailor Moon get wounded in such a manner and all for a boy! Romance had no place in a young girl's life!

London:

Aino Minako straightens up from where she was brushing her hair as a shudder traverses her spine, " Artemis, why is Luna so against romance anyhow? "

Artemis groans, " The romance blocker shudder again, Minako? "

The blonde teen nods, " She feels romance is a distraction, that senshi should wait to date until after they've retired. "

Minako stares at him in horror, " What the hell happened to her to make her feel like that to begin with? "

" She has never said anything one way or another, she just can't stand the sight of a senshi shirking her duty by dating. "

" We also have to continue our lines too. What does she think we should just pick a guy at random and get knocked up that way? " Minako asks.

Artemis' silence spoke volumes, Minako snarls under her breath, " I can just tell Luna and I are going to get along swimmingly, Artemis. "
