I know you guys (and gals) weren't expecting this until Friday but I don't know if I would have been able to so here it is today. I hope you enjoy it. I also wanted to say that wherever you see italicized words, it is the characters thoughts.

Chapter 2: A School For Monsters?

"As you all know this school is a very special one. Here you will learn how to coexist with humans," the man spoke to the students. At this sentence Tsukune lifted one eyebrow and looked around to see if anyone else was looking as puzzled as he was. "Today you will only look around the school grounds and get to know your homeroom teachers. So I will ask the teachers to come up."

Once he finished his sentence all the teachers came up onto the stage. They looked normal enough to Tsukune. One in particular caught his eye. She had blond hair with two tufts sticking up that made it look like she had ears. This strange woman looked like a typical ditsy blonde. She had on a white blouse an orange skirt and low heel sandals.

"I will now call the students to their homerooms as I do so follow your teacher to the room." The priest cleared his throat and looked over the students. His gaze lingered a little longer on Tsukune. "Now I will start with…"

Tsukune kept thinking about Kurumu. He hoped that they would be in the same homeroom together. Moka was thinking the same thing except about Tsukune. She was also hoping that Kurumu would not be with them.

"Now for those who will be with Shizuka Nekonome-sama." The priest read through the list and in it were Kurumu, Moka, and Mizore. Tsukune grabbed onto his seat listening intently for his name. "Tsukune Aono. Now will all those called please follow Nekonome-sama."

The group of students who were with her followed the teacher out of the auditorium.

Tsukune was relieved that he, Moka and Kurumu were in the same class. He looked to his left to ask Mizore if she wanted to walk with him and Moka.

"Hey Mizore-chan do you want to walk with me and Moka? And Kurumu hopefully."

"Sure Tsukune-kun."

"Come on Moka. Let's go see if Kurumu wants to come with us."

Moka was about to tell him that Kurumu wouldn't want to be with them when she could be with her fan boys but she didn't wan to hurt Tsukune's feelings. So they all walked over to where she was surrounded by boys. Tsukune tried to get through them but they wouldn't budge. Then Kurumu started walking and the guys who were in their class followed her still blocking Tsukune.

"I guess she's busy with her fans." Moka spoke sourly as she watched Kurumu leave with her posse. She then turned to Tsukune. "Let's just go we can meet up with her in class. If we can get past her wall of boys."

Tsukune nodded and started walking following the group of students headed out, Moka and Mizore next to him. Before they could go out the door the priest came up to them.

"Mr. Aono will you follow me to my office there is something we need to speak about?" The way he said it sounded more like a command then a request.

"Y-yes sir," Tsukune was surprised. He started wondering what sort of trouble he could possibly be in on the first day. "You girls keep going I'll catch up."

Moka gave him a worried look but went on ahead with Mizore.

Later

Tsukune hadn't gone to meet Nekonome-sensei in their homeroom. Moka was really worried about what had happened to him. As she headed towards the dorms she decided that she would look for Tsukune before she went to her room. Moka turned around about to tell Mizore her plan but all she saw was a group of guys goggling at her.

"Where did she go?"

"Hey Moka-chan I decided that you'll be my girl for now." It was Saizou one of the students in her homeroom. Moka just looked at the brown haired boy. "That means all of you losers have to stay away from her or else."

The guys who were gazing at Moka fled in fear for they knew of his temper and his strength. Moka took notice of their absence and wished that she could remove her Rosario.

"I'm flattered Saizou-san but I have to find Tsukune," Moka tried to get past him but he grabbed her by the arm and roughly pulled her back. Moka was shocked and afraid.

"I said that you'd be my girl and you will be! This Tsukune will do nothing about it. Is that clear?"

When Moka didn't respond he shook her and brought her up to eye level with him. Moka didn't say anything at this but was getting more frightened by his actions. With his temper rising Saizou threw Moka to the ground.

"I guess this Tsukune must be taken out of the picture for you to obey me."

Moka's eyes widened in fear of what he'd said.

"No Saizou you can't harm Tsukune-kun!" Moka shouted at him but he started walking intent on finding Tsukune.

Moka got up and ran past Saizou hoping that she could find Tsukune before he could.

Meanwhile

Tsukune was sitting on a bench by a pond in the dead forest. He was terrified of the students walking around. So much so that he couldn't bring himself to even walk to the scarecrow where the bus was supposed to be to take him home. Tsukune jus couldn't believe that he was in a school full of monsters. He shivered at the thought. In his mind he remembered the talk he'd had with the headmaster.

Flashback

Once in his office the priest went to the window and looked out. He turned to look at Tsukune and motioned for him to sit down. He himself stood. The priest turned back to look out the window. After a while he broke the silence.

"Mr. Aono do you know why I asked you to come with me to my office?"

Tsukune shook his head.

"What I am about to tell you concerns your entrance into this school.Headmaster of this school I choose who gets in and who doesn't. Usually I wouldn't let humans in but I have decided to try an experiment."

"Headmaster-san what do you mean? Isn't everyone here a human?"

To Tsukune's surprise the headmaster shook his head.

"This school is a very special one as you heard me say during the orientation. What makes this school special is that it is for monsters." The headmaster paused and turned around to sit down behind his desk. He studied Tsukune's face which showed shock, and fear. "I didn't drop the paper that your father found by mistake. He was meant to find it. Monsters and humans have had a hatred for each other for a long time. What I am trying to do by bringing you here is to establish peace between our kinds."

Tsukune wasn't taking the news well. He was shivering at the thought of being around monsters. If what the headmaster was saying is true then he really did see Kurumu flying. She was a monster. Tsukune realized that she hadn't been lying when she told him she was a succubus.

"Whether you decide to stay or leave I will leave up to you." The headmaster could see that the boy was taking it all in. He was hoping that Tsukune would stay but he could tell the boy was frightened. "I will give you as much time as you need but do not discuss this with anyone. If it were to get out that you were a human I wouldn't be able to assure your safety."

"I'm going home!" Tsukune finally spoke. He didn't want to stay in a place where he could be eaten.

"If that is your wish then a bus will be waiting for you." With that he dismissed the brown haired boy.

End Flashback

After he'd left Tsukune had ran into the forest to avoid the students around him. He was too afraid to even leave. What could he do? Tsukune buried his face in his hands. He was thinking about how to get to the bus when felt a hand on his shoulder. At first it was cold but it soon warmed up. Tsukune was afraid to look up and see whom the hand belonged to.

"Are you alright Tsukune-kun?"

He recognized the voice to be Mizore's. Tsukune looked up and could see concern in her eyes. She sat down on the bench next to him.

"Mizore I have to go. This school is not for me."

She was surprised that he didn't call her chan but more so that he looked uncomfortable to be near her.

"Tsukune I know that you are a human." Tsukune stood up prepared to run from her but she just looked up at him. He could see that she was genuinely worried about him. "I wont hurt you and I wont tell anyone unless you want me to. But I want you to stay because…" Mizore blushed as she got the rest of the words out. "Because I-I love you."

Tsukune was surprised at what she'd said. As he looked at her he thought about what the headmaster had said about there being peace between their kinds. He could see that there could not only be peace but love. At this he thought of Kurumu. The two heard footsteps coming towards then and turned to see Moka.

Moka was glad that she finally found Tsukune. But she wondered what Mizore was doing here.

"Tsukune you have to hide Saizou is coming and he wants to get rid of you!" Moka had a tone of urgency in her voice. Tsukune could see that her hair was messed up and that she was panicked.

Before any of them could react Saizou burst through the trees and grabbed Tsukune. He had a smile on his face as he gripped Tsukune's collar.

"So your this Tsukune whose keeping Moka from me." Saizou began to grow in not just size but muscle mass. Soon he was a hulking beast who easily reached 7 feet. He spoke in a deeper voice next. "It's time for me to get rid of you."

Saizou felt something hit his back. He turned to see it was Mizore who was throwing ice kunai at him. Her hands had transformed into ice claws and her hair was also ice. Her attack didn't do anything to him. Saizou laughed and kicked Mizore. She went through two trees. The girl slipped into unconsciousness.

Overhead Kurumu was leisurely flying. She was glad for all the attention from the boys but even a succubus needed time for herself. She spotted a commotion down in the forest by a small pond. She could see one of the students was turned into their monster form disregarding the rule about staying in their human disguise. She flew lower so she could have a better look. Kurumu could see that he was holding a boy by the collar. The beast kicked someone who was throwing ice at the monster. That person broke threw two trees then stopped moving as she lay under the broken trees. On closer inspection she could see that it was Tsukune whom the best had in its grasp. Without thinking she dived in just as he was thrown to the floor.

"This is it. Here I die." As this was going through Tsukune's head someone wrapped their wings and arms around him. The momentum was too much and they kept falling slower, but still unable to stop their collision with the ground.

The person behind Tsukune hit the ground with a thud and a crack. He rolled off the person and came to a stop facing up. Moka ran to them praying that they were alright. Tsukune reached up as Moka kneeled by him and his hand was caught on her Rosario. The Rosario came off. Moka looked at Tsukune in amazement as she transformed into her true self. Saizou could feel the demonic aura. It was so powerful that it made him shiver.

"So you're the bastard that has threatened me and the other Moka's precious Tsukune." Moka now had silver hair, fangs and a more mature body. "I think a punishment is in place."

She sped at top speed toward Saizou and kicked him in the face breaking his nose, jaw and a couple of teeth. The kick also sent him flying into the forest.

"Know your place!"

With the threat incapacitated Moka walked back toward Tsukune. He was looking over at the person who'd saved his life. It was Kurumu. She was also unconscious and was scratched all over.

"I shall take Mizore to the infirmary. If you feel strong enough you can bring her." Moka then headed toward where Mizore was and picked her up. "We have to talk Tsukune."

Tsukune was too concerned with Kurumu that he wasn't afraid of Moka even though her aura was frightening. He picked her up bridal style. Kurumu's wings and tail had disappeared. The two then headed toward the infirmary as the sun was setting.
