Ch. 1 Day One

Bobby Minaka was gazing upon the ocean. He'd done so since the bus let them off before the pumpkin scarecrow. Turning his eyes upward towards the sky, he saw that the sun had just risen from the east only an hour before if his calculations were correct, from just over the eastern side of the Island. So, why was it that the waters of the ocean was red as blood. He turned back to the tunnel, having known that the driver would be useless as hell since he already floored the gas and disappeared just a minute ago once the last of the brothers disembarked with their bags beside them, the tunnel entrance following just soon after.

"Let's go." He said as he picked up his duffel bag, hefting it over his shoulder.

As he began to walk, his younger brother Jake quickly picked up his own duffel bag, running to catch up with his older brother, but not before shouting, "Bobby wait, do you even know where you're going?"

With a nod and raising his free arm to point with an up turned palm without words being spoke, it was then that Jake and his other brothers noticed the open trail lying just ahead of them.

Mike had already noticed the roof of the school ahead in the distance beyond the boundaries of the forest and estimated that it would most likely be 30 minutes before they reached the school grounds, 45 at the most should anything slow them down.

"So, what are the chances that you think we're going to run into any Yokai once we reach the school?" he asked.

"The likelihood of our chances of running into any true Yokai, are more than good." Came his elder brothers response.

"You think?" he asked, an eyebrow raised as he looked to his brother beside him.

"There's a good reason why that...Priest, stopped by the house. And it wasn't just because we were there."

"You think he knew of our dual heritage? Our abilities?" Ben asked from behind his older brothers.

"Maybe." was the only thing Bobby could let out.

Not many within the normal human world, outside of their mother of course, knew of the gifts the boys possessed. And it wasn't just their fighting, hacking, or any such skill that anyone could inhabit, it was their meta-physical abilities.

Bobby was strong, beyond human levels with enhanced speed and durability, much like the famed hero of the Marvel Comics, Captain America. Bobby always emulated the man by being just like him, even seeking out fights because he was restless, his mind adaptive to any situation while also an Eidetic memory. This, and in turn his physiology, made his healing also somewhat unique as he healed five times faster than was known as normal for any ordinary human being.

Mike was strong as an ox, somewhat a tad bit stronger than Bobby. His nickname was the Juggernaught, a name he gladly adopted from the villain of the X-Men comics. When he had the momentum going, none could stop him. Only Bobby was able to overcome his brother when he really tried to put forth the effort to do so, though their mother took the title of undefeated champ as she had more ways than one to do so when it came to putting Mike on his ass. The counted number of times Mike landed on his backside via their mothers Martial skills, was well close to the hundreds mark before he wizened up and got his mind right.

Jake, the brothers learned early on, was more than just a pickpocket. Like his older brothers, Jakes was truly gifted. After Ben came into the family, the brothers would learn, that the only reason outside of giving the boys a loving home and a loving parent, was because the boys possessed Meta Powers. Jake was a teleporter, silent like a Ninja, and just as quick. He had stealth on his side when it came to getting things no one else had or wanted.

Ben, the youngest and the last of the mismatched group, wasn't just good with a computer, he was a telekinetic with a growing, yet limited form of telepathy. He was just beginning to harness his telekinetic gifts after learning that he had them, when Ming found him. They never could figure out why it was that Ming picked them, despite their gifts. But in time, they came to accept that it didn't matter because to them, she was no Charles Xavier, she was their mother, and that's all there was to it.

They knew she had her reasons for taking them in, but from what they could piece together outside of being special, was that Ming knew something that they didn't. And that set them on edge more times than they could dare to count when it came to their mother.

And now, years later, they now find themselves enrolling in a school, possibly for those born of the Supernatural World. To them, it was beyond coincidental that this was happening to them.

The morning sun shined through the forest as they walked along the trail. Noticing the trees as far as they could see, the life within the trees appeared non-existent, no leaves, bark was dead and rotting. And before too long, they could make out many a tombstones lying on either side of the trail, all the while, the brothers could feel and see the red glowing eyes of of ravens and crows high above within the branches of the dead forest trees.

An owl hooted, forcing Jake to cringe somewhat, an action not missed by his younger brother Ben who rolled his eyes, "A bit cliché, don't you think?"

"Come again?"

"The hooting of an owl within a dead forest, tombstones everywhere, a feeling of dread upon your bones."

Scoffing, Jake shrugged as he didn't slow in his stride behind Bobby and Mike, "Got a point. It is kind of cliché. But it seems so surreal, you know. I mean, we're literally walking towards a place that may or may not be filled with monsters, and the ominous feeling this trail gives off, it all seems a bit..."

"Much?" Ben finished.

"Yeah."

"It's to be expected."

Suddenly, a bat caused even Ben to look up as it was speaking in fluent Japanese that they were able to understand as if it was English to their ears.

"Is that a talking...bat?"

"Quiet!" Bobby barked as he paused in his stride uphill.

Mike pausing beside him with Jake and Ben stopping behind them, tensed as he listened.

A chime sounded, followed by the sound of weak bike brakes, sounding as if it was coming from a distance on their left, and it was getting closer. Snapping his head to the left, Bobby was able to shout out an order for his brothers to get down just as a female voice cried out in alarm, "Look out!"

The eldest Minaka didn't move as he caught the full brunt of a front bike wheel colliding with his chest. The force of the bikes front tire hitting him caused him to lose the air in his lungs. But, the body flying into him was what knocked him to the ground as he and the unknown female rolled several times, coming to a complete stop before a tombstone. Dust and debris was loose within the air from their tumble upon the ground.

Neither noticed the front tire bending from colliding with Bobbys body, let alone flying off into the distance. Bobby on the other hand felt the body that collided with him and confirmed with the round, soft orbs pressing into his chest muscles, that the person atop of him, was indeed a girl, or young woman.

Said young woman moaned as if in pain as she tried and failed to rise to her hands and knees. Taking the initiative, Bobby raised himself into a sitting position while aiding the girl onto his lap. Grabbing her shoulders as they were now in a more comfortable position, "Hey, you alright?" he asked in a soft tone with worry.

The girl, as he now had a chance to look upon her, had long, bubble gum pink hair. Her uniform jacket matched the same green tone as he and his brothers, though the tan plaid skirt was somewhat short, and left little to the imagination as he noticed her long, sensual legs. He then looked back up and noticed a black choke collar around her neck with a set of rosary beads interconnecting to the collar with a double chain loop between the beads, holding a silver cross with a small circular blood red stone in the center of the cross.

"Oh, I'm sorry." she said, her cheeks turning slightly red with a look of shame upon her face as she lowered her head as if in submission, "I just suddenly got all dizzy."

She then raised her head and it was like all time had stopped as Bobby looked into her eyes. 'Her eyes', he thought to himself as he gasped in awe, were like the most smoothest of Jade. It took him a great deal of will power to try to remove his eyes from hers.

Her eyes held a power all their own. So much so, that they threatened to draw him in and never let him go. She then closed her eyes, her cheeks turning a slight bit of red, as if blushing, yet had a look of shame about her expression.

She was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen. Time stood still as he gazed upon her eyes that just about took his breath away, his heart hammering in his chest a mile a minute.

"Hey, you ok?" the voice of his younger brother Ben asked. Shaking himself from his stupor, he looked up and then down back upon the girl.

"Yeah, just fine." he answered without looking away from the girl.

"Oh, you're bleeding." the girl said as she reached into a side pocket of her jacket, pulling out a handkerchief. Pressing it to his cheek to soak up the blood, he noticed that she suddenly stiffened. This didn't go unnoticed by his brothers either as her nostrils flared as if to inhale his scent.

Gasping in a lungful of air, like unto an animal searching for a scent, her eyes glazing over, "I can't...I shouldn't." she cringed as if fighting an instinct within herself. She grabbed the right lapel of her school jacket as if whatever her baser instinct was, was winning over her power of will and self control.

"Shouldn't what?" Bobby asked as he grabbed the hand that held the clothe to his cheek.

"I'm getting a bad feeling about this girl." Mike said.

A spark of anger appeared in Bobbys eyes as he looked at his brother who wasn't fazed by the look in the slightest, instead wore a look of annoyance himself as he crossed his arms.

The girl didn't seem to notice the others at the moment as she ever so slowly drew closer to the elder Minaka.

"Tha...That smell." she gasped as she leaned ever so closer to Bobbys neck, causing his brothers to stiffen in warning.

Bobby of course was drawn to her hairs scent as it smelled of strawberries, making him moan in ecstacy. He closed his eyes as he breathed her bodys perfume in even deeper.

It was then that she knocked him out of his thoughts as she grabbed his face, with an expression of happiness as she then said, "Sorry, I can't help it. Because I'm a Vampire."

"Wait, what?" Bobby said when suddenly, she lunged for him, or more specifically, his neck.

Before her canines could connect, two sets of arms grabbed her own, and pulled her away. She began to cry out, kicking and screaming, crying out, begging to be released. Bobby sat back on his backside for a moment, rubbing where her teeth nearly dug in. Taking a moment to gather himself, he stood up.

"Man, she's a fighter. And a strong one at that." Jake said as he and Mike subdued her, putting her back on her knees. Both held her arms on either side while also holding her shoulders down.

"W-What's going on? Why are you doing this?" the girl cried out.

Walking up to his brothers and gazing down at the girl, he was conflicted. Mike on the other hand, looked to his brother, "You good?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Let me talk to her."

"You sure that's a good idea?" Ben asked as he brought the bike over with one hand while grasping the broken and bent free wheel with the other.

"Yeah, something like this was bound to happen, sooner or later." Returning his eyes to the girl, he bent to a knee, "What's your name, Angel?"

"M-My name?" she whimpered.

"Yeah." he smiled softly as he brushed a few strands of her hair behind her right ear.

Her face turned towards his hands, her mouth opening, allowing him to see her teeth, and noticing the elongated canines.

"Mo-Moka. Moka Akashiya." she replied.

"When was the last time you fed?" he asked as he retracted his hand, making her moan in disappointment.

"Yesterday."

With a nod, he waved his brothers away, "Let her go."

Not letting the girl go, Mike and Jake shared a look, "Are you out of your mind?"

"It's ok, she needs this. Let her go."

Looking as if their brother was insane, but submitting to his small demand, the brothers let her go.

Rubbing her wrists, Bobby smiled once more, "Sorry about that. These are my brothers, Mike, Jake, and Ben. I'm Bobby. Are you really thirsty?"

"Mm-hmm." was her reply as her cheeks reddened, Bobby noticing her blushing.

"Bobby, I hope you know what you are doing." Ben moaned in nervousness.

The older Minaka grabbed the girl by her arms and placed her on his knee, "I'll make a deal with you, I'll let you feed from me, but me alone from here on in, ok?"

"You'd let me do that?" she asked suddenly with a look of hope.

He smirked softly, "Yeah, I would. Just so long as you take what you need, and not a drop more. I'm trusting you on this as a sign of good faith."

He then noticed her expression change from one of near confusion, to one of understanding as he gently guided her head towards the right side of his neck. He felt a slight pinch as her teeth sank into his flesh.

"Dude, I can't believe you're really letting her do that." Jake said in nervousness as well while running a hand over his own mouth as if he was going to be sick. In the meanwhile, Bobby softly ran his left hand over her hair repeatedly while holding her to him with his right.

Before the brothers knew it, the female Vampire known as Moka removed herself from his throat, and yet, he felt a slight ticklish lick against his neck as if her tongue ran over the skin of his said neck. As she moved back a bit to look at him, she said, "Thank you."

Mike kneeling next to him with his other brothers gathering behind him, he looked at his brothers neck, "She healed the bite marks, with only a red spot where she bit you."

Running a hand over where the girl drank from him, and not noticing any blood upon his fingers when he pulled his hand back, he looked to the girl, "You healed me? How?"

"A Vampires saliva has healing properties." was her answer.

"Dude, sweet." Jake said in awe.

Nodding at her answer, he aided her to stand as he too got to his feet, "Feeling better?"

"Mm-hmm." was her reply as she shyly brushed a strand of her pink hair behind her left ear, her cheeks still flushed.

"If my theory regarding Vampires is accurate, and I think they are, it isn't just blood they need, but the plasma within the blood." Ben interjected.

"Meaning?" Mike asked.

"Meaning he's going to need to consume double the natural helping of both food and fluids in order to restore the blood and plasma he loses every time she feeds from him."

"That makes sense." Jake said as he stepped up to Moka with both the bike and bent front tire, "Uh Moka, was it? It looks like your bike is going to need to be repaired. If you let me, I can probably have it repaired by the end of the week, once we get all settled in and all."

Looking towards the bike and seeing the damage for herself, she frowned, "I really liked that bike. My parents bought it for me so that I can get around faster wherever I go."

"Well, all the better for us to fix it for you, if you'll let us, Moka!" Bobby said as he stepped up beside her and grasped her left shoulder gently and reassuringly.

"I-I don't know what to say. You're all being so nice to me even though I tried to take your blood without permission."

"It's all water under the bridge, Moka." Mike said as he stepped up to her with his right hand out, "What's say we try this again since you told us what you are, it's only fair we tell you, so long as you promise to keep it to yourself."

"O-Ok."

"Bobby Minaka is the big lug who will be your donor, so to speak, and the eldest of us all. I'm Mike, the enforcer and second in charge. Next is Jake," he said as he pointed at the one with the bike and tire who nodded, getting one in return fro the female vampire, "and then there is the youngest, Ben. We're Meta's."

"Meta's?"

"Meta-Humans." Ben corrected. "Ever heard of or read any of the comics from Japan, or even any of the Japanese translated comics of DC and or Marvel?"

Shaking her head, she replied, "No."

"Well, in the comics, they speak of Meta's and mutants. Meta's are those who are exposed to certain...elements if you will, granting them special abilities. This is of course either by accident, Government experimentation, or even nefarious and downright evil experimental purposes by the bad guys. Then there are the mutants, who are beings born with special powers and abilities that activated on the genetic level by several variables, but most often than not, via puberty."

"So, which are you?"

"Well, that's the thing, we're not mutants. We believe we may be the offspring of possibly, the supernatural world since our mother was the one who found and adopted us when she realized what we were. She helped us to harness our powers, while ensuring we didn't abuse them." Jake said.

"Yeah, I can still feel the phantom pains of every time she busted my backside with her Martial Arts skills." Bobby shot out as he rubbed his neck with his left hand and winced a bit at the reminder.

"We think, and we're pretty sure that we're correct on this, that whatever Yokai or Monster we're descended from, its left some genetic anomalies traits behind, making us not necessarily monsters, but not fully human either." Ben stated.

"Oh?" She queried.

"Why don't we continue this conversation as we head to the campus, shall we?" Bobby said as he held out his arm to Moka, "My lady, may I have the honor of escorting you?"

"Uh, sure." she replied, the blush returning. "So, what can you do?" she asked as she looped her left arm around his right. Once they began walking, he answered her question.

"Well, like my comic book idol, I'm what you would term as Super Human. Enhanced speed, strength, agility, and reflexes. I also have an eidetic memory which is another way of saying I have perfect memory recall."

"I'm a human Juggernaut." Mike spoke up from Bobbys left. "I have super strength, but when I start to move, nothing can stop me."

"Teleporter." Jake said. "Meaning I can appear and disappear whenever, wherever, at will."

"Telekinetic, meaning I can move objects with my mind. I also having some limited, but growing telepathic talents. Reading a lot of comics has helped me figure out how to keep the thoughts of others out and making sure my mental powers don't overload so as to control me." Ben said as he tapped his noggin with an index finger so she could understand his predicament. "Here, let me get that." he said to Jake, taking both the bike and tire from his brothers hands with his mind, removing the weight of the objects from his brother arms.

Moka was surprised by the display of Bens abilities as the damaged bike and tire floated harmlessly beside the brothers, Jake giving Ben his thanks. Looking back at the younger two, and then at Mike, and finally Bobby, she had to ask, "So, you're not really human, or at least not completely human?"

"Had problems with humans before?" Bobby asked.

Her head lowered as the memories of being around humans in the past made her very afraid of answering him.

"Moka," Bobby called out softly. Pausing in his walking, he lifted her chin to look at him, "You've been around humans before, haven't you?"

Her eyes and the pain within them answered his question. Pulling her into his arms as he then ran a hand through her hair, he then spoke, "Whatever happened in the past, you will never have to worry about that with I or my brothers."

When he pulled her into his arms, she stiffened at first, until his next words soothed her mind, her heart, and put her fears to rest as she relaxed in his arms. The hand running through her hair helped as well as she felt her vampiric heart flutter at being in his arms.

Feeling her relax, Bobby let her stay like that for another moment before he gently pulled her back a bit and raised her chin once more to look at him, "As a good man once said to another, I am, and shall always be, your friend. We all will."

She turned to look at his brothers who all looked back and nodded with soft and gentle smiles. She looked back at Bobby and leaned back into his arms as she cried tears of joy, "Thank you."

"You are very welcome, Moka."

"There is something I have to tell you too. All of you."

"And what's that?" Bobby asked.

"Well, you see...I-I have this...problem. You see this Rosary seal?"

Bobby nodded as his brothers looked as she turned to let them all see it.

"Whe-When it comes off, I become a...what you would call a very different person. A scary, S Class Vampire. I'm no longer in control of myself."

"So, what you're saying is that the Rosary seals off your true power and has basically left you as a victim of alternate personality disorder." Ben stated.

"I-I guess you could say that. Only the one I'm meant to be with or my true love can remove it. My mother told me that my destined is the only one who can remove the Rosary Seal."

Bobby took a good long look at the Rosary, worried. He didn't like that such a thing had happened to Moka. No one should ever suffer having two minds in one body. It just wasn't right and not done. His left hand curled tightly into a fist as he felt a surge of anger at the audacity of what her mother had done. But then he thought about it, he wondered if Mokas other personality welcomed the transition willingly. And if she did, would she still be the same Moka that was now attached to his arm. He doubted it, but was wanting to give Mokas parents the benefit of the doubt that what they did, was right and or necessary.

"Moka." Bobby spoke. As she turned and looked up at him, he continued, "Even though we are now friends and in a way...bonded, should it ever become necessary to remove that Seal, I want you to know, that if it is me, I will stay by your side, as long as you will have me."

"You...You really mean it?" she asked.

"Yeah, I do." Bobby replied. She just tightened her hold on his arm and laid her head on it as they resumed their walk. He felt his heart beating fast as she remained tethered to his arm in the manner she was. She was driving him crazy, and he even felt a pull towards her that he couldn't understand. The saying must be true, sometimes, love can be known when first sighted. Was it love that he truly felt for her. He didn't know for sure, but he couldn't wait to find out.

"So Moka," Jake called out.

"Hhmmm?" she responded, turning to him while still holding Bobbys arm.

"How is it that you aren't affected by the sun? Almost all legends have it that Vampires are allergic to the sun. So much so, that they'll literally burn to ash when in its presence."

"Oh, that's just superstition. We burn, but only if we remain in its presence for too long. We burn at twice the speed than humans do as if we've been in the sun for hours."

"So, that means we'll just have to find a way to limit your exposure." Bobby said.

"Yep. So, if the school has a career day, we'll have to see about setting up something that deals with being indoors." Mike spoke up.

"Well, we all have a love for fixing things from computers, to vehicles, even bikes." Jake said as he raised a hand and pointed at the levitated bike and bent tire.

"Why not try and open a garage within the school for fixing up things?" Ben asked.

"You now, that doesn't sound like a bad idea." Mike said. "What do you think, Moka? Wanna help us set up shop?"

Thinking on it for a moment with a finger on her chin, she smiled and nodded with a smile, "Sure. I'd love to."

"Then it's settled." Bobby stated. "Jake, you and Moka will set up the flyers and get any feelers out for whoever needs things repaired while Mike, Ben, and I will find a space and get it ready for business. All agreed?" They all nodded and gave their verbal affirmative.

Throughout the remainder of their walk, the group of five walked in silence until they made it to the front of the Campus. The front of the school was three stories tall. It was all white with some of the architecture reminding the brothers of some of the places they've seen online of vacation hotel hot spots with a touch of a Lousiana style craftsmanship. There were conjoining parts of the school that were both single and double stories high. It was all in all, not that bad looking, despite it being the size and length of any ordinary college campus. Though the dead trees within the compound were a bit unsettling.

"This place don't look so bad." Mike said as he looked the place up and down.

"Still, be wary. No doubt the school students will have enhanced senses, meaning they'll most likely be able to sniff us out." Bobby said. "So try not to attract any unwanted attention to yourselves, and let's try to get along without exposing too much of what we're all capable of."

"Got it, bro." Mike said.

"Affirmative." Jake replied.

Ben nodded as Moka also said, "Ok!" with a smile and hugged his arm to her body, making Bobbys heart beat faster.

Entering the school, all five were able to reach the Headmasters Office who then welcomed them to the school. After a bit of a sit down and getting things out of the way, the Headmaster then gave them all their schedules, all the while giving the four brothers a gleaming look as if to size them up, but not getting a physical response from them at all. He even let them place Mokas damaged bike and tire in his office so that she could collect it later. He then summoned an aid whom was also wearing a human form, making it difficult to know what her true species was, just like the Headmaster, whom then sent them on their way. The girl stood at what the brothers estimated was at least 5'8, at just a few pounds higher than a hundred. She had short black, bowl cut hair with black rimmed glasses. Her eyes were golden brown, and she had a stiff posture as if she was not one that enjoyed being in big crowds.

Ben and Jake were sent to a separate classroom several doors away from their older brothers and Moka. They looked back with worry, but Bobby made sure to remind Jake and Ben to see about working on their cell phones to try to get and or create an artificial signal so that they can keep in contact with them. And if there was trouble, to find them immediately, but other than that, try and keep their heads down and try not to draw attention to themselves.

Both nodded at this with Jake promising to teleport them to Bobby and Mike should trouble arise. Ben promised to reign in his mental abilities and only use them should the need arise.

Both older brothers watched from outside the hall as Jake and Ben were introduced to their first class elective before being escorted with Moka to their own first class elective.

As the door opened, the teacher inside had short blond hair with the sides perked up, looking like cats ears, so to leave both Mike and Bobby thinking along the same lines of her being a cat-based Yokai, most likely hiding her appearance by some form of a magical glamour charm. She had blue eyes that further asserted their belief that she was a Cat-based Yokai, a Nekomusume if their memories from researching the legends were anything to go by.

"Ah, Ms. Nekonome Sensei, I have three new students to introduce you to. Aksahiya Moka, Minaka Robert, or as he likes to be called, Bobby, and his younger brother, Minaka Michael, who likes to be called Mike."

"Class, please welcome the newest additions to our school, Ms. Aksahiya, and..."

"Please, Nekonome Sensei, we prefer just Mike and Bobby. No titles." Mike spoke up.

"Oh, of course. If you would, just introduce yourself to the class. One at a time, Moka, followed by the two brothers gave their names and bowed to the class as was expected.

As Moka gave her name, Bobby noticed many a male Yokai gasp and drool in their presence, making him extremely jealous as his anger levels began to sky rocket. He forced himself to to school his expressive features as he gave his name, and yet when he and Mike did so, many of the female girls began to look at him and his brother as if they were dinner. That's when his jealousy turned into fear as one of the girls in the front licked her lips when she looked him in the eyes. That fear was accompanied with nervousness until Moka broke him from his thoughts by taking his arms once more and leading him to a desk that was empty and was sitting in a desk next to his, at the back of the class, next to the windows. Mike followed as he sat in front of his brother.

Seeing Moka grab Bobby like he was hers, made some of the girls moan in disappointment, until they then looked on Mike and began to make flirtatious remarks and sounds that made his younger brother of a year and a half, blush.

The guys on the other hand, were disappointed and very jealous that such a foreigner could catch such a girl like Moka. One in particular that sat on his right while Moka sat on his left, next to the window, caused his nerves to go haywire.

After being situated, the teacher, Ms. Nekonome re-introduced herself to him, Mike, and Moka, and then began to go back over the rules since the three new arrivals didn't hear them upon arrival. Once she explained the second rule, the student on his right, made a comment about the rules not being to his liking, "And you are...?" she began as she pulled out a book and checked his name in the said book, "Oh, Saizou Komiya." she chuckled in her sweet, yet professional tone.

'Saizou Komiya, huh? Going to have to keep my eye on the guy.' Bobby thought to himself as he turned to look at the guy. He then noticed how Mike was doing the same and was openly glaring at the guy, not really knowing what his brother was thinking at the moment.

"If we do happen to spot a human, why not just eat it? That's what I would do, anyway." Komiya then began licking his lips with an elongated tongue that made the brothers both think of Gene Simmons, the Demon of KISS, and how he had nothing on this guy.

"Well now, there's no chance of that happening, because at this school, all of the students and teachers are monsters." she said with the utmost certainty. "So, no exceptions, got it?" she finished when a golden brown tail revealed itself from behind her short skirt, causing the brothers eyes to widen comically. But on her last statement, they then became nervous because of their status as more than just human.

Moka grasped Bobbys left hand, offering moral support as she began to worry for him and his brothers. He grasped her hand a bit tighter as thanks and smiled in appreciation, then giving her a nod letting her know he was alright.

"You see," Ms. Nekonome began again, "this school's enclosed in a giant secret barrier, but even if a human got through it somehow, and wandered in here, they would be killed immediately."

"Yeah, that's sending the right message, alright." Mike said suddenly, as his head was lowered, casting a shadow over his eyes.

"Mike," Bobby growled out in a warning.

"You preach how the students are supposed to blend in by looking human, and yet you're talking about killing them if they wander into your school and into monster territory. That's a bit hypocritical, don't you think?"

"Well, uh..."

"I mean, what's to stop the school from sending an invite to an innocent human who somehow wanders into your school without knowing a single thing about what he's really facing, huh? You going to kill him then?" he spat as he crossed his arms, openly glaring at the teacher.

In another universe, a young man named Tsukune Aono sneezed, 'Huh, I wonder what brought that on?' he thought to himself.

Back in the class, the teacher was at a loss as to how to reply to Michaels statement.

The class was looking at Mike when the class jock named Komiya let his tongue out once more, as if to sniff the air, "Whatever, human lover. Say what you want, but I swear I've been smelling a human this whole time."

"Maybe you have, bub." Bobby aid as he glared at Saizou, "Maybe what you've been smelling is someone who's been raised by a human and knows, not all humans are bad."

"Our adoptive mother was human, and died as one. So before we hear one more remark from you Komiya, you better think real hard about what to say next. Because if the next words from you are about humans being killed or served for food, you'll find yourself with my size twelve and a half inch boot so far up your ass, that the sweat on my knee will quench your thirst." Michael finished.

"Now, now, no need for hostilities." the teacher said as she raised her hands in a nervous, yet placating gesture, "I'm sure you are right in how some humans aren't all bad if what you say about your adoptive mother is true. It just goes to show you class, how some humans can be accepting of others who are not human."

Throughout the remainder of the class, the beginning lessons were tense as the brothers continued a stare down with Saizou who gave as good as he got, though the idea of two brothers who looked nothing alike, and yet claimed to be adopted by a human who raised them as her sons and they as brothers, began to make him a bit wary as a single drop of sweat fell from the left side of his face.

Moka looked on worriedly when not paying attention to the days lesson. Eventually, the class period ended with the school bell going off, and the brothers followed the rest of the class when they rose to their feet. Moka remained by Bobbys side as Saizou once more let his tongue out, sniffing the air near them.

"Zip up the tongue friend, or I'll cut it off and feed it to you." Mike said.

That got Saizou to retract his tongue with a gulp, and yet as he began to move away and towards the door, they could clearly him muttering, "Human lover. Got no business in a school of monsters..." they missed the rest as he left the class room and went on his own way.

The remaining three, plus the teacher, finally released the air in their lungs, "Woah, that was a tense period." Ms. Nekonome said.

"You're telling me." Bobby replied.

Looking to the brothers, she asked, "We're you really raised by a human?"

"Yes, we were. And we won't stand for anyone disrespecting the woman who took us into her home, gave us a roof over our heads, food in our bodies, and clothes on our backs."

"Ho-How did she die?" she asked.

"Cancer." was Mikes answer.

It was at this time when Ben and Jake appeared at the door together, letting Bobby introduce them both one after the other. When introductions were out of the way, Moka decided to lighten the brothers spirits by suggesting food. Together, all four brothers plus one female vampire sought out a snack machine with the hopes that there was a drink machine nearby as well.

Behind them, a blue haired Succubus looked on in wonder as she thought on what the brothers revealed about themselves. Shaking her mind from her thoughts for a moment, she began to try her hand and see if there was someone worthy of her time and attention. And maybe, just maybe, she can finally find her one.

Going to pause here, as the next chapter will be where the action takes off. I hope you like and enjoy. Remember to leave positive reviews. Until next time.
