When I saw people following and reviewing I couldn't help but cry. Thank you all so much for that!

So here's another chapter for all of you!

I own neither shows/movies


Rin looked around for the source of the laugh, but was only met with empty darkness. Rin unsheathed Kurikara hoping to gain some light, but it did nothing.

"Where the hell are you?" Rin growled.

"Isn't it sad?" A voice greeted him, "You help those mortals but in return you're ridiculed. They make you hide your true self and punish you if you show it."

"What the hell are you talking about?" Rin growled back.

"Those so called friends of course." The voice answered, "If they're your friends then why do they cower away from your true form? Why do they watch you with distrust like you are a bomb that will go off at any time? Even your own twin brother reacts this way. Why do you bother with helping them?"

"Because they're my friends." Rin answered.

"So friends tend to use friends as weapons? They push them away because of their heritage?"

"Shut up."

"I mean that last one is kind of stupid. They push you away but they keep you brother. Only because you inherited the demon traits right? You with the blue flames and demonic appearances that are told to be hidden because of the fear they bring to people."

"I said SHUT UP!" Rin screamed releasing a wave of blue flames in hopes of hitting something.

"Ah those beautiful flames. You shouldn't keep those hidden. You should embrace you true form and the fear it causes. If they fear you and in return harm you because of that fear, you could show them the real fear you can cause. Come with me and I won't hide you. I'll help you become your true form. You don't have to stay with these terrible people. I'll help you be free. For what goes together better then demons and shadows?"

"Fuck you."

The voice sighed, "I see your mind is still poisoned by their tricks. You need to realize that they are only using you and are waiting for you to go off. You need help embracing the demon within you. You need help realizing the truth."

A gray hand reached out and before Rin could slice at it, black sand was blown in his face. Rin's legs gave out as he suddenly passed out, but before he could hit the ground someone caught him. Pitch Black. A gray skinned man with black spiked hair and black robe, pants, and shoes. His golden sliver eyes stared at the half demon before him, and he grinned with his sharp teeth. All Rin needs is a little push and he will be his and with him the power of Satan. So much fear he can gain from one teen.

He remembered what he told Jack once. What goes better then cold and dark? Why demons and shadows. Demons and fear.

Pitch placed the unconscious teen on the ground and pulled away the shadows revealing a burnt wooded area around them. Not many trees were burned from the fire that was unleashed, about only ten. In fact they weren't that far from where he had taken the boy.

Pitch watched as the half-demon's face as it became one full of both sorrow and horror. A nightmare of the 'truth' was given to the boy.

"Soon." Pitch whispered. He then sheathed Kurikara and then vanished.


Back with the others, no matter how hard they fought or how many they took down, the nightmares just kept coming. Then suddenly they all disappeared. They just vanished into thin air without a reason. Every single one.

"What the hell?" Bon yelled

"They just disappeared." Konekomaru said.

"How? Why?" Shima asked

"That doesn't matter, right now we need to find Rin." Yukio said. He turned towards Bunny, "Can you find his sent?"

Bunny nodded, "Yeah mate. I just need something to recognize his sent with."

"You don't need anything. You'll most likely be able to tell it when you smell it." Yukio said.

Bunny looked at him curiously but went with it. As soon as he sniffed the air he smelled a strange sent. It smelled like burning fire and something inhuman, but at the same time human. He noticed Pitch's sent was near it as well. But the first one has to be who there looking for. Rin if he remembered.

"Got him." Bunny said.

"Take me to him now!" Yukio shouted. Everyone gave Yukio a shocked look but he ignored them. Bunny then nodded and told Yukio to get on his back. He normally wouldn't let people ride on his back but this kid was obviously worried. And he had a right to be. His brother was taken by Pitch right before his eyes. And by Pitch!

Sandy created a platform that everyone else climbed on as Bunny took off, with them following. Soon Yukio and Bunny reached where Rin lay and as soon as Yukio saw him on the ground, he jumped off Bunny and ran to him.

"Rin!" Yukio yelled as he knelt besides his brother and lifted his upper body into his arms, "Rin come on wake up!" He was worried. Rin wasn't waking up but he was making soft whimpers in his sleep.

"He won't wake up, mate." Bunny said putting a hand on the exorcist's shoulder, "That's a nightmare forged directly from Pitch. He won't wake up until the nightmare ends or Sandy intervenes."

Just then the other Guardians and exwires appeared in the clearing.

"Rin!" Shiemi shouted running over to the twins. "Yuki is there anything I can do?" Yukio shook his head.

"What the hell happened to him?" Shura asked as she and the other exwires came up to them.

Yukio signed, "He trapped in some sort of nightmare."

"Sir I found this a few feet away." Bon said as he held up the red cloth Kurikara is always wrapped in. Yukio looked next to him and found the sheathed Kurikara. He picked it up and handed it to Bon.

"Please hold on to this." Yukio said and Bon nodded in response. Just then Rin started muttering things like, "I'm sorry", "Don't leave", and much more. Suddenly his breath hitched and he quieted. The others thought it was over but they were wrong. Soon Rin started to scream and sob, tears rolling down his face from clenched eyes. Fear and sorrow rolling off him like waves scaring his friends and family.

The Guardians, who were over to the side discussing everything that's happened, heard the screams and rushed over. Once Sandy saw Rin he instantly got to work in trying get the nightmare to fade away.

Everyone sighed when they heard Rin's cries subside and relax in his twin's arms.

"What are your names?" Shiemi asked.

North grinned, "I'm Nicholas St. North you may call me North. Of course you most likely know me as Santa Claus. Toothiana, the Tooth Fairy, but you may call her Tooth. Sanderson Mansnoozie, The Sandman, but you may call him Sandy. Jackson Overland Frost, Jack Frost, but you may call him Jack. And finally E. Aster Bunnymund, the Easter Bunny, but you may call him Bunny." North pointed to each person as he introduced themselves.

"Wait. Santa Claus, The Tooth Fairy, The Sandman, Jack Frost, and The Easter Bunny? I thought you were all myths." Konekomaru exclaimed.

"Well for kids your age that should be true." North mumbled.

"How can you see us?" Jack asked.

"It must be because of our mashou." Bon stated, "If normal people can't see demons without one but we can, you must apply to the same rules, since both you and demons are considered myths to people."

"I thought only children could see us." North hummed. Then he saw the confused faces of the other group and explained, "Well we are usually only seen by children because they are more willing to believe in us, since we can only be seen if we are believed in."

"What are your names?" Tooth asked.

Yukio smiled and pointed to each person as he introduced them, "I am Yukio Okumura and the one you saved is my older twin brother Rin. They are Konekomaru Miwa, Ryuji Suguro, Renzo Shima, Shiemi Moriyama, Izumo Kamiki, Nemu Takara, and Shura Kirigakure."

"I would like to thank you for helping Rin!" Shiemi said bowing.

"Who was that anyway? The demon that attacked. And why did it take Rin?" Yukio asked.

"That was Pitch Black, the Boogieman." Tooth said.

"He feeds on fear and loves to bring it." Jack said with a shrug, "Unless Rin could have helped him with that, we have no idea of what he'd want with him."

Realization dawned on the exorcists' faces.

"You know don't you?" Bunny said crossing his arms, "And it has to do with a demon. It's something about Rin and a demon."


So there's the second chapter!
