Hello again people! I closed the polls a while ago, and I have to say I was quite frankly... pleasantly surprised! Not one day had gone by since I posted the Prologue for this story and already I had people voting. The poll that would decide who will be paired with the ever loveable Tsukune was a landslide victory, and Outer Moka came out on top with a colossal 50% Majority. MUWAHAHAHAHAHA! That's an easy pairing to write... though I was kind of scared of what would have happened if the Harem Route pulled off a come from behind win~starts to sweat~... We still have two more polls after this one! The next poll will be for our oh so clueless Kurosaki Ichigo, so get ready to vote. Now, I am sorry that it took so long to update, but I didn't really know how I should start. I hope you all don't mind that I took a little liberty with Tsukune, as you will see at the beginning of this chapter. This will be explained later. Oh and one more thing... the Question is this: "What kind of monster is Yukishirou Saito?" For those of you that read the prologue, he did say he was a Snow Boy, but he may not be. Imma let you all decide in a poll. Here are the choices...

A) Dragon

B) Vampire

C) Snow Boy

D) Warlock

E) White - Kitsune no Yoko (He will have adorable fox ears and tails) I may be a guy, but even I'm hoping for this one... it'll make things far more entertaining considering his personality. XP

F) Demon(True Demon)

To vote on Saito's Species, leave a review with your vote. Thank you.

Remember, no matter what is decided, he will not be the all powerful Final Boss Type Monster. He is only nineteen after all. Yet he is still a Captain in a militant organization, so he will be roughly Akuha level in strength when in Human Form. Don't worry, he won't transform all that often.

Now that that really long AN is out of the way, here you go, as promised; Chapter One of Sabiduria Infinita: The Masquerade

I Do not own Rosario + Vampire or it's Characters, nor do I own Bleach and its' many Characters.

I do However Own Yukishirou Saito and the model I used to create him aka Adell Maverick.

Chapter One: The Masquerade

The peaceful morning, like many others, was not what one brown eyed, brown haired, young man woke up to one Tuesday morning. No. It most certainly was not. He greeted the day just like he would any other day...

Cursing like a trucker and turning his ever infuriatingly annoying alarm clock into pieces of scrap metal and broken plastic. With a hammer.

Groaning with the effort such act always entails in the early morning, Tsukune rolled off the bed, landing almost drunkenly on his bare feet. After a few awkward stumbles, he managed to make his way into the adjoining bathroom.

Several minutes and a squeaky clean Tsukune later, he got dressed in the Academy Uniform and the young man was ready for the day. He stopped though, when he saw himself in his mirror on his way out the door. Gone was the young, sprightly face that once stared back at him. With vampire blood flowing through his veins, Tsukune had become the very image of what many would argue to be handsome.

Where once he would be looking into the wide innocent and hopelessly naive eyes of a fifteen year old human teenager, was now the sharp glare of a battle hardened young man. He had grown noticeably taller than he once was, now standing on the verge of 5'9". His brown hair was longer, though still largely untamed as it would forever remain. There was one other change though; a Rosario.

The silver cross with a blood red gemstone at its' centre hung lazily just beneath his collar bone from a black leather choker around his neck courtesy of Ruby(duh), forever advertising to the world that he was no longer human. Yes Tsukune could now be called almost devilishly handsome; but to Tsukune he was one thing and one thing only.

He was the true image of a Vampire in human form.

After locking up his dorm room and heading outside, Tsukune soon found himself walking down a familiar path, only to come upon a familiar sight.

There was Moka, the love of his life, bubblegum pink hair cascading down her back, while eyes as green as the purest emeralds stared unblinking down the path towards the Academy gates. Her Rosario was sitting in its' usual place, but Tsukune swore that the ruby in the centre had lit up, and a single reptilian eye was currently staring in the same direction as the outer shell.

Then there was the sweet Kurumu, vibrant blue hair tied with a blue ribbon, a killer figure and breasts that would make a watermelon jealous; she was wearing her usual yellow vest and short skirt. She too was currently none-the-wiser about his arrival, opting instead to gaze off at whatever had captured the vampire's attention.

He caught a glimpse of Mizore hiding off in the bushes as well, violet hair falling about her shoulders in elegant waves, her white sweater doing nothing to help in concealing her presence, while her trademark sucker was stuck in her mouth, moving side to side as lazily as could be. She was the only one who noticed Tsukune, deciding that whatever had captured the others' attention wasn't worth her time.

We mustn't forget the dirty minded young witch either; Yukari. A Fourteen year old child genius, just as perverted as she is intelligent. Instead of the green blazer, was placed a black cape instead. Atop her head was the stereotypical pointed witch's hat.

When Tsukune finally joined the group, he looked back and forth between Moka and Kurumu while Yukari did much the same. It would seem she was just as confused as he was. There was an odd feeling in the air, a certain tension that he couldn't deny but couldn't put his finger on. When he followed their gaze, it was then he saw what had their attention occupied so thoroughly.

Six people; all but two were dressed in the green blazer and slacks or skirts of the academy. They were walking down the pathway towards the dorms; and one of the first things Tsukune noticed was that everyone was giving them quite the wide berth.

Trying and failing to get Moka's attention numerous times, Tsukune sidled over to Kurumu and tapped her on the shoulder. Startled, Kurumu whirled to face him, violet eyes wide; once she realized it was him, Tsukune was surprised to note that the first thing she did wasn't pull his face into her cleavage, instead opting to put a hand to her rapidly beating heart and sigh in visible relief.

"My god Tsukune, you scared me!" Kurumu whined. She crossed her arms under her breasts and looked back over her shoulder at the steadily advancing group. "Good morning by the way."

"Ah, good morning Kurumu..." A pause. "Ano... what's going on? Who are those guys? Transfer students?"

Nodding Kurumu turned back to Tsukune and took him by the arm. "I'd advise against taking off Moka's Rosario anytime in the immediate future." She then pulled him off to the side of the path where Mizore was currently waiting and growled irritably at the yuki-onna, who merely shrugged before saying good morning to Tsukune and turning her attention to the small group of people. Or at least, two of the six who both had the most eye catching white hair and the white sticks of suckers sticking out to the side of their mouths.

Baffled, Tsukune complied before whispering. "Why should I not take her Rosario off?"

Kurumu gave Tsukune the 'Are you really that stupid?' look, and shook her head. "You know, I love you and all Tsukune, but you can be really dense sometimes. Since you're a Vampire too you should know this, it's a dominance thing; like you, Moka's a powerful Vampire, and these new people are practically radiating power. Do you get it now?"

Tsukune frowned. "So, she wants to see if she's stronger than them?" Tsukune chuckled, he may still be new to the whole Vampire instinct thing, but he knew the inner Moka well enough. "Well, if that's all it is I don't see too much of a problem."

Kurumu sighed once again. "At least one of them is a powerful predator, it's coming off him in waves and it doesn't even feel malevolent. The other five absolutely reek of death. So much so that it's giving me the shivers." Kurumu closed her eyes and rubbed at her temples in an attempt to alleviate the growing headache. "And two of them appear to be those new teachers we've been hearing about. Getting into a fight with them would have serious repercussions both physically and academically."

"Not that you need to worry about that cow-tits." Yukari quipped from her position to Kurumu's left.

At that Kurumu seemed to visibly burst into flames, as she turned and proceeded to lay into the little witch with the usual amount of restraint. In a word; none.

When the group of six finally passed them on their way back to the dorms it took only a moment to sink in. Tsukune felt it, a sudden rush of adrenaline that could only come along with the anticipation of meeting and facing a powerful opponent; it was a feeling in the air that spoke of a presence so thick with barely restrained power that even his sealed Vampire nature was literally quivering with excitement.

'All of them are the same! They're all insanely powerful, and they aren't even in their true forms! They're power is coming off them in waves and they aren't even trying to exert their presence! Well Kurumu-chan, I'm sold! No way, absolutely no way, will I remove Moka-chan's Rosario when these guys are anywhere near us.' At the end of his thought-tirade, Tsukune clenched his fist in front of his face and nodded to himself. He was so focused on not removing Moka's Rosario it wasn't even funny.

That's right, Tsukune was not going to remove the Rosario until the newcomers were out of sight. 'I'm so proud of myself. Go me! FIGHT!' Tsukune idly noticed someone take hold of his hand and pull it towards them, but knowing the company he kept he assumed it to be Kurumu once again trying to get a rise out of Mizore. At least, those were his original thoughts until the entire group heard a rather ominous sound.

CLINK

"Clink?" Tsukune wondered aloud, his brow furrowing in confusion. Tsukune, Kurumu, Mizore, and Yukari all then looked to Tsukune's now outstretched hand, and the Rosario that was sitting in his palm. 'Now where have I seen this Rosario before? It seems eerily familiar, wasn't Kurumu just talking about this very Rosario? It's not mine, but that could only mean...' Sudden realization dawned after that moment of cerebral inactivity, and a single phrase was spoken by all those present at the exact moment as a torrent of unearthly energy was unleashed upon the world in a swirling crimson vortex of youki and thousands of screeching bats.

"Awe Hell..."

XxSCENExBREAKxX

Earlier that Morning...

The group of five shinigami awoke the next morning in good spirits. They spent the majority of the morning getting ready. Double and triple checking their equipment, and relaying any last minute orders they received from Soul Society. This was all done before they relaxed for what little time they had left before the bus was said to arrive outside their hotel.

Thanks to the organization Saito worked for, each and every one of them received their own room for the night while Saito remained in his office finishing up any last minute paper work still sitting on his desk for the night.

So naturally when he met up with the group, he was a little cranky.

The bus ride, save for the few instances where the cigar smoking driver with the glowing white eyes decided to get a little ribbing in on the taller white haired Taichou, was uneventful. The shinigami were all set on edge when they passed through the tunnel though. Though this was to be expected, since for the briefest of moments they passed through the rift between worlds.

Upon finally arriving at their destination, they were greeted by the dismal landscape that was Youkai Academy's outer grounds, scarecrow included; Saito was the first off the bus with his single travel pack filled with essentials, and was now standing a little ways away with said pack slung over one shoulder, eyes closed and the stick of what was quickly becoming his trademark sucker poking out the corner of his mouth. He was tapping his foot impatiently when the others arrived, and Ichigo was the first to notice the tick mark steadily growing upon his twitching brow.

"What's up?" Was the question of the day from the carrot topped shinigami. Of course this got little more than a snort and a few grumbled words that Ichigo couldn't catch before the white haired Taicho was on the move.

"Follow along quickly if you don't wanna get left behind." Saito growled, and the Shinigami were all quick to heed his warning. They were in unfamiliar territory, and yet, even someone who had a miniscule sensory ability would have little trouble finding the Academy that at this time was no doubt swarming with students. All of which possessed some form of Reiryoku.

They walked along in silence, their footsteps unhurried and confident. After all, they were the most powerful beings in this dimension as far as they could tell. There was no reason to be overly cautious.

The only members of the group that were on edge were Saito, and the resident Commander of the Onmitsukidou. Said commander looked over at their guide with a pensive look. "So, Yukishirou-Taichou..." A small hum was her response, prompting her to continue. "Do you know the Headmaster... this Dark Lord, personally?"

Saito looked side-long at the diminutive Taicho and nodded once. "I should, he's the one who created the organization I work for. The Taicho of every division meets with Tenmei Mikogami, or the Headmaster as he likes to be called, once a month to discuss current events."

Sui Feng nodded and turned to look ahead as Saito began to scrutinize his fellow snow-topped Taicho. After a few moments thought he turned to the child-like Taicho and nodded. "Toshirou was it?"

Toshirou nodded and Saito reached inside his coat, and pulled out, lo-and-behold, a sucker not unlike the one he was currently eating... or was he eating it?

When Saito went to hand it to the young Taicho, Toshirou recoiled. "I may look like a child, but that does not mean I over-indulge in sweets like one!"

Saito brushed it off. "It's not any normal sucker Toshirou... it's a little Yuki-Onna magic actually. Whatever the temperature is outside, this little doohickey will keep them at a more comfortable temperature. In more simple terms, this will lower your body temperature. Now correct me if I'm wrong, but you utilize Ice-Type abilities correct?"

Toshirou looked gob-smacked. "How...?"

Saito smiled and Toshirou accepted the sucker. "I can feel it. It's not too different from my own abilities actually, so I can recognize a kindred spirit. But no self respecting snow boy would ever submit themselves to the climate of this place without some of these. I'll ask the Headmaster to have double my usual order shipped here later."

Toshirou smirked as he unwrapped the sucker and popped it in his mouth. "So I'm a snow boy like you now?"

Saito chuckled. "Yes, yes you are. You already look the part after all. So why not roll with it?"

Toshirou nodded. "I can see where your coming from. It'll be a lot easier to blend in if we use our natural appearances to determine our species."

"You and Matsumoto are the easy ones... but for the rest, I'm going to have to get creative." Saito stated calmly. "Now listen up good Toshirou, you and me are going to be introducing ourselves as half brothers. We've been living together in the Human World since our parents were killed by a Yeti when we were kids. Got it?"

Toshirou nodded, and that is when Saito turned his head to regard Matsumoto. "Matsumoto... you're a succubus if anyone asks. Though in this school they shouldn't, since one of the rules is to keep your true form hidden." He then turned to Ichigo... "I'm gonna have to say that you're a..." He paused... still nothing... wait for it... wait for it... "You're going to be a Yoko. I got nothing else that will go with your hair colour."

Ichigo snorted. Then scowled... then growled. "Yeah, definitely a Yoko..." Saito mumbled to himself. He then turned to Rukia. "You're going to be a member of the Fae... You're Ice-Type abilities would make it easy for me to call you a Yuki-Onna, but your hair colour is all wrong."

He then turned to regard the last member of their group and sighed. "Now, what to call you..."

Sui Feng twitched, and then shot a glare in his direction. "I swear to Kami above, if you so much as imply anything demeaning, I'll make sure that you'll never be able to have children."

Now, when this was said, Toshirou paled along side Ichigo, while Matsumoto whistled and Rukia smirked devilishly. They were thus surprised to note, that Saito didn't seem to visibly react at all. Instead, he smirked and continued walking. "I think I have the perfect race for you. A Vampire."

XxSCENExBREAKxX

When the group of six arrived at the Headmaster's office, they were greeted by a young woman with brown hair tied into several tails that almost resembled... dare they say it... handles. What those 'handles' were for was a no brainer really. Saito however, shocked them when he greeted the strange woman with a wave and a smile.

"Yo, Tojou-san." He walked into the reception area and turned to face the young woman just as she started to pout cutely.

"Why won't you just call me Ruby-chan Saito-kun?"

Saito actually blushed at that, and scratched at his cheek with a single finger as he smiled with a hopeless expression. "I'm not sure your boyfriend would like that Tojou-san."

Sui Feng and the others raised their eyebrows at the interaction they were witnessing. The woman was strange enough, but for the ice-cold Taichou they had been only recently introduced to to be acting so cordially with someone... it was actually rather surprising.

"He wouldn't mind at all!" Ruby protested. "He's really nice Saito-kun! You'd like him actually... though he is a little bit too soft. He'd probably annoy the heck out of a soldier like you."

Saito's smile immediately turned into a scowl as he looked at Ruby more seriously. "We need to see Tenmei immediately Ruby, it's concerning our mission parameters."

Ruby blinked, obviously caught off guard with the sudden switch from familiarity to professionalism. The others were equally as baffled. "He'll be available momentarily... he's just checking on Paradise right now. He should be back soon though. You're welcome to take a seat." As if just struck by a thought Ruby smacked her own forehead with an open hand and smiled sheepishly. "Can I get you all anything?"

"Tea, black... cream and one lump of sugar if you would for me Tojou-san." Saito answered almost immediately before sitting down in one of the plush chairs. The others all refused except for Sui Feng, who simply ordered yet another black tea, though this time without anything added.

When Ruby returned shortly afterwards, the group sat in relative silence as Sui Feng and Saito sat next to each other enjoying their respective beverages. Sui Feng took this chance to ask Saito a few questions.

She cleared her throat and set her cup down on its' saucer; when Saito turned to her with a raised eyebrow, she began. "Just how strong are you, Yukishirou-Taichou?"

Saito frowned, seeming to actually be putting some thought into his answer, unknowingly earning him some brownie points with the shorter Taichou. After several moments of silence, he spoke. "In the world of the Living, there are the three Dark Lords who stand at the pinnacle of power in the world of the living. Immediately Beneath them are the Vampire Elders, powerful monsters all." He paused for a moment, and then smirked darkly. "And immediately beneath them, are people who have achieved such renown for their strength that they've been granted certain titles by the Dark lords themselves, people such as the 'Black Devil', Shuzen Akuha."

The way he hissed that name, with such vehemence, told everyone that could hear him, exactly what he thought of this 'Black Devil'.

"Then there are people like Aoyama Kaito, the White Devil." Ruby interjected here with her own dialogue, forcing all attention to the witch who was now doing some kind of... dance? She was holding her wand in between her breasts, and spinning like a ballerina. "I've always wanted to meet him! He's just as famous as the Black Devil for obvious reasons! The two of them have had several documented confrontations, but apparently neither of them have ever been able to beat the other... at least not decisively. I bet he's such a hunk!"

Cue multiple sweat-drops.

"You mean, you don't even know what this guy, this White Devil, looks like?" Ichigo spluttered, obviously rather confused. 'Fan girls are scary... yeesh!'

Sui Feng's attention was drawn momentarily to her right, where a certain white haired Taichou was currently sitting sipping his tea. Though it appeared he was choking on it discreetly at the moment. She narrowed her eyes at the look of barely visible amusement dancing in his eyes; something she would definitely have to speak to him about later. What was it about this White Devil that he found so amusing? And why did he hate this Black Devil, this Shuzen Akuha so much that it was nearing the point of animosity? Surely in his line of work, he must have met her at least a few times... and yet he speaks as if he knows her personally and just plain out despises her.

"But we must not forget you Mr. Yukishirou!" Ruby exclaimed happily. "What is it they call you again?"

Saito sighed. "The White Knight." Saito set his cup and saucer down and turned to the gathered shinigami and witch. "It's not a very well known title, which is why I can use my real name so freely. The Human-Youkai Relations Bureau likes to keep the identities of its' more powerful operatives a secret. I obtained the title after facing off against the Black Devil two years ago..." He paused and took a sip of his tea. "and was actually able to walk away."

"Oh but you forgot something Mr. Yukishirou."

Everyone in the room looked to the door, where a man dressed in white priestly robes with a gold cross around his neck on a chain, was currently standing. The only things they could make out from his face, were the two glowing red eyes, and an ethereal mouth currently set in a broad smile.

"You forgot to tell them that your battle with Akuha placed the city of Kyoto into a state of early winter. It took a little over a week for all the snow and ice to melt."

Saito grunted his acknowledgement. "Tenmei-sama... I would like to kindly request that you not speak of my earlier accomplishments so openly when guests are present."

Now the newly named Tenmei Mikogami seemed to actually smile wider to show his amusement. "Oh? But why not? Many of your accomplishments are so very amusing and make for very good conversation topics. Though I could live without all the paperwork."

Saito finished off the last of his tea and sighed before standing up. "If you're finished amusing yourself at my expense Mikogami, we have work to do."

"Ah yes, the Shinigami. I take it you've already decided on your cover stories?" Mikogami motioned the group to the door that led into his office and smiled that creepy... glowing... grin of his.

"We'll go over them with you in your office Mikogami. Once we're done here we'll go and get settled in our dorm rooms and then go and greet our classmates and co-workers." Saito stated calmly as he led the group into Mikogami's office.

That was when Matsumoto piped up. "You're the one that did that to Kyoto two years ago?"

Everyone stopped at that; Saito began to sweat, Ichigo looked confused, and the other shinigami adopted pensive looks as they tried to remember that particular incident. Then it hit Sui-Feng like a ton of bricks. "I remember that now! Kyoto was in a state of panic and the entire city had to shut down. The death toll was enormous, and even the souls in the area were affected by the cold. That was you?"

Saito cleared his throat and continued on into Mikogami's office. "Moving on!"

Mikogami hadn't laughed like he did then in over a hundred years.

XxSCENExBREAKxX

We now return to serious shit about to go down... serious shit.

The moment the group of six felt the massive release of Yoki, they were instantly on alert. Saito stopped dead in his tracks and looked over his shoulder, his ice blue eyes narrowed at the now silver haired, red-eyed, Akashiya Moka in all her glory. If he didn't know what was about to happen, he might have been impressed with the young woman's good looks. For she was indeed very attractive.

Full lips complemented by a narrow jaw line and narrow red eyes with slitted pupils. Perfect hour-glass figure with high end C-Cup breasts and perfectly rounded backside that her skirt had a little trouble covering completely; and last but not least, long, flowing silver hair that glistened like the precious metal it resembled in even the dull luminescence provided by the perpetually overcast skies of the academy proper.

Her eyes, which were unfocused at the moment of her unsealing, suddenly focused on him. Strange, considering he was quite positive he wasn't the strongest in their little motley group. Perhaps it was... 'Yeah, it's definitely my aura.' This was the conclusion after less than a full second of thought on his part.

Ichigo was practically vibrating with excitement, making the other shinigami present positive he was more like a certain eleventh division Taicho then he would ever admit. "Whoa... talk about your oppressive presences. What is she?"

The shinigami all turned to their resident Yokai expert who was currently standing stock still in a relaxed posture while he stared down the Vampire over his shoulder. Without looking at them he answered quietly. "That my friends, is a Vampire."

The moment he said that, Moka dashed forward, despite the protests from her friends. She lunged at Saito with a spinning kick intending to take his head right off his shoulders. What she didn't expect however, was for him to block her powerful kick.

With a single raised arm.

Their was a blast of air from the impact, telling all that could see it that the blow was indeed quite powerful, and yet Saito didn't even budge. Save for a brief moment where his visage reflected slight discomfort and surprise at the force of the attack, he looked his usual stoic self.

Yet his glare was more frigid than the Shinigami had ever seen. Even Moka had to suppress a shiver, yet even she wouldn't be able to tell you if it was because she was intimidated, or aroused.

No one had ever been able to take one of her kicks without at least flinching before. No one, not even Kuyou was able to take a kick like this from her. Even when she had been weakened, Kuyou was still sent flying.

Yet this person barely even moved.

"Last I checked, trying to take someone's head off, was not a proper way to greet someone." Saito drawled sarcastically from his spot as he continued to hold back Moka's leg. 'She's stronger than I thought... that kick actually stung a bit.' Giving her a slight push, Moka was forced to withdraw a ways from her opponent and with no small amount of surprise.

'What the hell! That was akin to kicking titanium! Who... or what, is this guy?' Moka growled as Saito turned towards her and placed his hands in his pockets.

"My name, is Yukishirou Saito." Saito stated calmly, ignoring the stares of the shocked onlookers, and his curious comrades. "What is your name, Vampire?"

Moka assumed her trademark fighting stance and her eyes narrowed. "Akashiya Moka."

Saito blinked at that... 'Did she just say... oh Hell. Please don't tell me that she's her kid!' Without missing a beat Saito nodded and turned to face the direction in which he'd previously been heading. "Well, this has been fun, Akashiya Moka; by my associated and I have things to do before our first class. Ja ne." With that, the group of rightfully confused Shinigami left with their guide to the dorms, leaving a stupefied Moka in their wake.

Kurumu snickered behind her back, and Mizore smirked. Kurumu's thoughts were along the lines of, 'Moka just got the metaphorical finger from that guy... priceless.'

While Mizore's thoughts were more confused. 'A snow boy, able to stand up to the strength of an unsealed Vampire without even blinking? How is that possible... who is he?'

Tsukune, was speechless. In the two years he'd known Moka, she'd never once actually lost a fight. Until now it would seem. "Who is that guy?"

Moka scoffed and took her rosario. "Be wary of them Tsunkune. That snow boy is strong, strong enough to defend against one of my attacks as if it were nothing." Just before she snapped her Rosario back on, she smirked. "And unless he's hiding some serious power, I could sense that he was the weakest of the six."

With that, she snapped her rosario back on her choker, and Tsukune caught her as her hair shifted from silver to pink and she collapsed into his arms.

They were all, in a word, floored. Tsukune though, he was worried now. 'Are they from Fairy Tale? If so, we're in big trouble.'

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXENDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Alright, and that is it for Chapter One. Sorry about the Long Wait guys... I just started College a little while ago and I wasn't able to get working on this until quite recently. Hopefully you all wont have to wait this long again, but I unfortunately can't make any promises.

Remember to get all your votes in. One Poll will be posted on my profile, and that one will be Ichigo's Pairing. The other one, I will accept votes with reviews, that will determine Saito's Species. Well, that's it for me for now, until Chapter Two everyone.
