Chapter Two: Pledging Demon
Rins POV
I was heading to the gas station to try and get a job so Yukio won't worry about me so much, as soon as I walked past an alley I didn't notice or hear someone walk up to me soon after until two hands covered my mouth and eyes most likely dragging me into the alley. "Hey ya Rin how're you today?" I heard the familiar voice of the 'Pigeon Killer' as I called him yesterday say "what do you want Reiji? I have somewhere to be" I said as the hands holding me let go.
"I hear your brother is attending True Cross Academy" I heard him say a little too sweet for my taste "yeah, what does it matter to you?" I asked looking away from him as a few coal tars started gathering around him. "I want to know how much it will take for you to be quiet? Since I will also be attending True Cross" I heard him say and I couldn't stop the laugh that bubbled from my throat and out my mouth at what he informed me of.
"What's so funny Okumura?" I heard him snarl causing more coal tars to gather in the alley "nothing, I was just shocked that you were able to get into that school, I don't care for what you have to offer I won't tell anyone anyway" I said looking him in the eyes the entire time before I turned around to walk away. "So I guess you don't want to save that run down monastery or pay your brother back for all the trouble you caused him?" I heard him say breaking my line of sanity for a moment.
I whipped around and threw a punch towards the now possessed Reiji, he held up both fists in the shape of a half square, the next thing I knew my face was pressed against the hard ground of the alley my fist still balled up and held to the ground by one hand. "Okay now that you're restrained I want to pass on a message to you from Akira, he says thank you for not interrupting my activities and also if anyone interrupts our conversation we'll reveal everything we know about you to your family and friends" I heard him say as he gripped my hair and yanked my head up with it so I could face him while he was talking.
"It's the same for when Akira and I go bully your brother everyday he gets done with his cram school class until the day he graduates" I heard Reiji say making me mad "don't you dare touch my brother you arrogant brick!" I yelled at him before he slammed my head into the concrete floor. "I bet father could fix that attitude of yours, I also bet he would love to see you as well" I heard Reiji's garbled voice say and I realized he's now fully taken over to the point he can't be saved "I may want to thank Satan for giving me that book but I don't want him to change me in anyway" I said looking up at Astaroth.
After I said that I heard the old man's voice speaking a verse or two from the bible that I remember trying to read once, I was unsuccessful in that though. I felt the weight being lifted off of me as well as a pain in my sides, I winced and bit my lip so I wouldn't scream in pain, I realized after a few minutes that the old man interrupted causing me to worry for my brothers safety.
When I remembered all of what Reiji said the pain in my side increased and I erupted in azure blue flames surprising me in the process "come on son we have to get you back to the monastery" I heard the old man yell causing me to get up. He grabbed my wrist and pulled me through the alley making many twists and turns in the process to get to our destination.
(Instead of Satan it's Astaroth who killed Shiro by going after Rin, Shiro jumped in front of the attack getting pierced in the lung with a four foot sword of rot.)
Time skip- the next day on September first
I stood in front of a grave the day after father died, I was soaking wet from the rain, I had an umbrella but I didn't want to use it. I was wearing the same outfit I was the day before when the old man died, there was still blood on it as well as a small tear from the sword of rot, but I didn't care about that either.
I had the old man's cell in my hand so I decided to call the number he told me to before he died, when I pressed the phone to my ear I heard two ringtones one from the phone I was holding and the other form the phone I was calling. "Hello Rin Okumura" I heard a guy dressed in what looks like a mix of a clown and business suit "hello I'm guessing you're the one the old man told me to call" I asked unsure why Shiro would tell me to call someone like him.
"Rin Okumura you have two choices, either you let the Vatican execute you or you can choose suicide, which is it?" I heard him ask which made me laugh "how bout you give me another choice? I can help exorcise the demons who try to harm humans intentionally or I can work specifically for the Vatican" I said not really liking the second option I gave but it betters the chance of my brother still having family. "Hmm I like you Rin Okumura you're funny and conniving at the same time, you have a fire that speaks volumes in more ways than one which is a thing I like to see, though you'll have to speak to Arthur Auguste Angel" I heard him say making me smirk slightly.
"Is that him?" I asked looking towards a tall man that looked to be dressed as a noble "I don't really like the idea but the Vatican seems to since it would be better than you being on the other side, so I can't argue" I heard him say confirming my suspicions. "That is true but what does this agreement cost me?" I asked raising my left eyebrow "you'll have to pass the exorcist exam in two or three years" he answered but I don't think that's all.
"But?" I asked knowing there was more to it than that and I was correct "if more than two of your classmates know who your father is, including Yukio, than you'll have to pass the exorcist exam that summer or you'll be sent to the Vatican to await your execution" he answered and I wasn't very surprised. "Very well, I agree to your terms" I said standing up straight as I said it "very good, Mephisto you'll be in charge of him so he doesn't cause any trouble, if you don't inform us of what he does you'll be joining him when/if that day comes" I heard Angel say before he disappeared.
Time skip- True Cross Academy two days after the day in the grave yard
Five days before school started "what do you mean I'll be Rins Exorcism teacher?!" I heard my brother yell from the other side of the door "why would the Vatican agree to that?! What's the catch to this?" I heard him continue before it stopped for a while. I heard a crash sound behind the door before my brothers voice sounded, his voice sounded sad instead of angry or surprised "how can I teach him all about exorcism in two or three years?" is what my brother asked.
At that I decided to leave, I took out the piece of paper that Mephisto gave to me, it read: Aller a la vide garcons le dortoir. (1) I gave up on actually trying to read what it said and figured Yukio would call me if he needs me to come home.
I walked around not knowing what the signs said, one of the signs said Le Science Batiment (2) another said La Gymnase (3). The signs made no sense to me, same with homework and anything to do with writing or reading, though the demonic language of Gehenna I can read just fine.
"Hey hey hey who do we have here? I'm shocked to see an idiotic demon in an elite school like this" I heard a familiar voice say making me falter mid-step. "Well I guess we can change our agreement from a while ago now" I heard Reiji say from behind me.
I turned around after a while of just standing there and saw Akira and Reiji standing a few feet away from me, they were barely facing each other, Akira on the left with his right hand on his right hip. Reiji was on the right with his left hand on his left hip, both of them were staring at me with an evil smirk and a glint in their eyes.
"What are you going to change in it?" I asked even though I already have a guess as to what the revised agreement will be "we'll be hurting you instead of your brother, anything you want to change Akira?" I heard Reiji answer and I was relieved that they changed to me and did not keep my brother, plus I should be used to torture by now. "I want to torture him every other seven months when school starts, only one day that month though" Akira answered and that surprised and scared me at the same time.
"Why so short a punishment time with a long waiting period?" I heard Reiji ask Akira with a confused glance "so he can wonder what I'm going to do to him that one day with such a long wait" he answered and it did scare me but I think I might be used to torture by the time seven months is over. Seven months of torture from Reiji versus one day of torture from someone who ruined my life in just one day from it.
So in other words his torture will be the worst to wait for, I felt a hand in my hair and then my head was pulled up so I was looking into Akira's blood red and purple steaked eyes. "I'll have so much fun messing with your mind for seven months" I heard Akira say before he let go of my hair smirking all the while as his eyes danced with mischief and enjoyment.
"Come on Akira, we'll be late if we don't hurry" Reiji said and I saw him smirk "even if it's fun messing with him" Reiji continued before he spoke again. "Meet me at the fountain after cram school every week day, never be late or our agreement about your disabilities will be upheld" is what Reiji told me and it scared me more than it should.
They left after that and at the same time my phone went off, I took my azure blackberry out and saw that it was Yukio calling me, I answered his call but I had to take the phone away from my ear right away. "Rin where are you?" Yukio yelled before I tore the phone away, I looked around and frowned because I couldn't answer him.
"I don't know" I said instead which caused Yukio to sigh "do you see anything around you? A building, forest, anything?" I heard him ask and I looked around again. "I see a light green and grey building shaped like a dome" I answered and he sighed again "good you're nearby, I'll come get you in a bit just stay there" I heard him say and I smiled at my phone for it.
"Kay Yukio" I said happily and he hung up, I looked around and saw an orange wood bench, I went to it and sat down placing Kurihara next to me on the seat. I waited fifteen minutes for my brother to find me, when he did he lectured me about walking around a strange unfamiliar place without him "yeah, yeah, I know" I said when he finished.
"Good you will have to take me with you until you get a map or know where to go" Yukio said as he walked away and I followed, after a while we walked over a hill and what looked like an old abandoned dormitory came into view. Yukio and I walked in passing what looks like a cafeteria, we passed three doors, turned left, walked up a flight of stairs, turned left again and passed two doors before Yukio opened one.
"This is our room, your bed is on the left mine is on the right" I heard Yukio say as I walked into the small room "the beds used to be bunk for four occupants but for some reason Mephisto knew you were coming here before I did" I heard Yukio say and I smiled. "Oh really" I said sitting down on my bed 'I wonder why Mephisto didn't tell him that part?' I asked myself as I laid down, my tail feeling uncomfortable under my shirt.
Backtrack Yukios POV
"Rin I'd like you to stay outside for a little while, if you want you can head to your dormitory to wait for Yukio, here you go" I heard Mephisto say to my brother before handing him a small folded up piece of paper. "Mmk" I heard Rin answer taking the piece of paper before grabbing a seat on the blue violet metal bench by the door as I went into Mephisto's office to speak with him.
"So what is this about Mephisto? I know Rin will be safer here than at the monastery but what will he do here? He doesn't think he's smart enough to do public school let alone this school" I asked my demonic principle. "He will be studying to become an exorcist with you as his teacher" I heard him answer, I was shocked by his reply while he had a smile on his face.
"What do you mean I'll be Rins exorcism teacher?!" I asked yelling the question "because the Vatican agreed to it" he answered with his chin resting on his interlinked hands. "Why would they agree to that?! What's the catch to this anyway?" I asked sitting down on the chair behind me just to shoot back up.
"He'll have to pass the exorcist exam in two or three years or else he'll be executed" I heard Mephisto answer and all the breath in my lungs disappeared. I shot up knocking the chair I was sitting on down causing a crash to echo through the room "how can I teach him all about exorcism in the next two or three years?" I asked sadly when I calmed down a bit.
"You won't know until you try" I heard him say in a sing song voice "so when will his cram school classes start and where will he be staying while he's here? He can't stay in the regular dorms with his ears, tail and flames" I asked picking the chair back up to sit down in it. "September, he will start cram school on September eighth, YOU and Rin will be staying in room 204 on the second floor of the abandoned boys dormitory" I heard him say causing my mouth to fall agape.
"Why do I have to stay in the same dorm as him? I know he's irresponsible but he won't do anything too bad" I said annoyed with all of these changes. "Because he has to be watched, and I don't think he'll like having people he doesn't know watching him while he sleeps" I heard Mephisto answer after he sighed.
"Very well you make a good point" I said after I laughed lightly at what I think my brothers reaction would be to waking up and seeing stranger's eyes on him. "Good now I think you need to find your brother now" I heard Mephisto say making me sputter, I ran to the door and opened it to see that my brother was gone.
I ran out to the dorm running frantically to see if he's there, when I got there I checked every room, none of them had any signs of life in them. I got really worried after an hour had passed so I decided to call him when I could think more clearly.
The phone rang twice before he finally answered, thank goodness I was so worried about him "Rin where are you?" I yelled into the phone worry lacing my tone. It took him a while to actually answer, he was most likely looking around to answer my question "I don't know" I heard him say into the phone causing me to sigh.
'That's just like him' I thought before I asked another question "do you see anything around you? A building, forest, anything?" is what I asked finally hearing an answer. "I see a light green and grey building shaped like a dome" I heard him answer, I heaved out a sigh of relief glad that it was nearby.
"Good you're nearby, I'll come get you in a bit just stay there" I said into the phone smiling in relief that I know where he is "Kay Yukio" I heard him say and hung up right after the confirmation. I put my black Nokia back into my jeans pocket and ran out the door of the dorm running to the square my brother was at, when I finally got there I smiled when I saw him but I gave him a lecture anyway.
A/N: Hello I hope you liked this chapter sorry if it's rushed, if this story or chapter is bad please review so I know how I can fix it or improve it, it will help a lot.
