Wild kuro fang – Yay! My first review!
I'm glad you like my idea.

Toby – Le gasp! That's what I already plan on doing lol
*gives cookie for guessing right*

Hartanna – Thanks, I hope I do a good job with the characters and keep them in character even though they'll also be a bit ooc. Lol does that even make sense?

It took Rin a few moments to snap out of his shock of seeing the ruins of True Cross Academy before he could even think about his situation.

"What do I do?" Rin shouted as he scratched at his head in frustration. If only he'd been paying more attention to what Shura had said! Then he wouldn't be in this mess.

'Okay think Rin, think. What do you remember Shura saying?' Rin closed his eyes as he tried to think deeply, which was probably his first time all week. The red head had said something about one portal being a doorway to another world, and the other was a window. Or something like that.

'Well I definitely went through the doorway.' The half demon sighed and sat down on the ground, leaning his back on a chunk of rock. Thinking about it some more, he managed to remember some other things. However, they only made him realize even more how bad his situation was; because even if he could somehow open another portal, there was no guarantee it led back to his world.

So he was basically stuck here.

"Shit." Rin cursed as he shoved his hands into his pockets. 'Wait a minute, what's this?' The black haired teen pulled his right hand out to reveal a set of magical keys; Yukio's to be more specific.

'Oh yeah, I stole them from his pocket this morning to annoy him and see if he'd notice. And then I
forgot to give them back. Whoops.' Looking at the keys, an idea popped into his head.

"Maybe if I use one it'll lead me back to my world!" He announced happily, so excited he accidentally said it aloud.

Rin rushed out of the broken doorway of the class and into the desolate hallway in search of a door. This normally wouldn't be too hard to do since this was a long row of classrooms, but almost every door he passed was broken in some way to where the key didn't work.

Finally, Rin found a promising looking door and inserted a key at random into the lock. He closed his eyes and held his breath as he opened the door and took a step through.

Sadly, it wasn't his world. But, even though there were sturdier walls and the garden was rather overgrown, he recognized the place he was at now.

"This is the exorcist supply store Shiemi lives at." Rin murmured as he took a step forward.

And then something leafy and hard smashed into the side of his head, knocking him into the cracked pavement.

"Good job Nii-Chan, now seal him up with an una-una-kun!" a familiar voice commanded.

"Niioh!" another voice answered as thick brambles began surrounding him.

'Shiemi?' Rin thought. 'If it's her maybe she can help me! I just gotta explain my situation.'

"Hey! What the hell?" He excaimed as the plant sprouting from the greenman began surrounding him.

Rin rushed to pull Kurikaraout from its sheath, but by the time he got the sword out of the red cloth container, the brambles had completely trapped his arms and legs.

Another plant must have been summoned, since now there were many flowers wrapping around the branches. From what he could remember when Shiemi had used this plant to block the Naberius', flowers had definitely not been on those branches. He would have remembered something like the thick smell that was wafting off from the flowers. His eyes than began to droop as the flowers intoxicating scent continued to fill his nose; before he knew it, his vision faded to black.

"Urgh…" Rin moaned, blinking his heavy eyelids as he looked at his surroundings. He was in some sort of cell, kind of like the one he'd been locked up in at Kyoto, but this one was all stone and iron.* A lot fancier too, or at least from what he could tell about the marble floor tiles. To his disappointment, whomever had captured him had taken Kurikara as well, since he couldn't feel the weight of the demon sword on his shoulder.

Rin decided to try and sit up, but as soon as he did, a flash of pain erupted through his tail.

'Crap that hurts like hell!' Hissing a bit as he tried to hold in a yelp, the half demon began assessing where else he was hurt.

He felt a dull ache in his head, and his hair around the throbbing area felt a bit sticky and wet. That punch to the ground he'd gotten must have cracked his head, but because of his demon side, the wound was already almost fully healed.

Focusing back on his tail, Rin gingerly touched it and found a small circular bracelet like clamp.

'It's like the one Shura put on me that causes pain. Man I hate that thing. Especially when she started chanting-'

"On gyachi-gyachi gabichi yanju-ynju tachibana sowaka!"** A voice said, interrupting Rin's thoughts.

"GYAAUGH!" Rin cried out, pain shooting through his body and preventing him from doing anything but seize up in pain.

"Behave yourself, demon." The contempt filled voice ordered him.

Rin weakly lifted his head up to see who the person was, and was shocked to see Arthur standing on the other side of the bars.

'No matter what parallel universe I'm in, it seems that guy will always be a total prick.' Groaning, the black haired teen struggled to push himself up into a sitting position so he could look at the exorcist better. This Arthur's clothing wasn't the same as the one's he knew, it was more tactical with less flowing fabrics, but it was still all white.

"Shouldn't you be busy being a paladin and stealing candy from children?" Rin retorted to the man with a glare.

To his surprise, Arthur let out a laugh.

"Are the other spawns of Satan as ill informed as you?" He chuckled. "I'm not the paladin, I'm an upper first class exorcist. In my opinion though, the one who is paladin is completely incapable of the job."

Yeah, this was definitely the same personality.

"Okay then, if you're not the paladin, then who is?" Rin questioned, his curiosity getting the better of him. Maybe it was Shura; no she hated being accountable for things like that. What if it was Yukio? Man that would suck for this universe's Rin, because how the hell was he supposed to surpass Yukio if Yukio was already Paladin? There wasn't anything higher than paladin right?

"You don't need to know that demon-"

"Sorry I'm late! I stopped by the infirmary on the way to check the wards and then got distracted by some busty nurses."

Rin dead panned, immediately recognizing the newcomer before he could even see their face.

"Old man! You're alive?" Rin stammered in shock.

"Eh? Yeah why wouldn't I be?" Shiro Fujimoto replied as he turned to Rin, a confused suspicious look on his face. Arthur just had one of his hands massaging the bridge of his nose, muttering something about "no class" and "not even paying attention to what's going on".

"Right, I need to get down to business." Shiro said as he strode over to the cell, his face now serious and not the warm look Rin usually saw on his father's face. "What I want to know, is why would you be stupid enough to approach the exorcist supply shop, when you know how heavily secured it is? Is Satan planning something?"

"Oh and don't even think of trying to let Satan come out so you can escape, this place we're in is one of the most heavily warded areas in the Vatican headquarters." He added.

Rin said nothing and just continued to stare at Shiro with his mouth wide open. The boy was so shocked to see Shiro alive he couldn't even form a single word, let alone a sentence.

"Answer the questions!" Arthur demanded as he approached the cell as well.

"W-Wait I don't-"

"On gyachi-gyachi gabichi yanju-yanju!" The blond man shouted causing the half demon feel his body seizing up with intense pain once again as he let out a cry of pain.

"Hey, he can't really answer the questions if he's unconscious." Shiro reasoned to Arthur.

"Are you feeling compassion for that demon? Need I remind you what he's capable of? How many exorcists he's killed? That abomination isn't the boy you once raised!" Arthur argued to him. "We need to get answers out of him now, before any other attacks from Satan occur!"

"Hey wait-" Rin attempted to cut in.

"No, if we have Rin here than we only need to worry about the other six demon kings, not satan. Plus, we already know where all of them are. Torture isn't necessary right now." The priest instructed him firmly.

"Can't I just explain som-" Rin tried again; only to be cut off by Arthur this time.

"Yes it i-!"

"LISTEN TO ME GOD DAMMIT!" Rin roared, his patience finally done with. "Look I have no idea what the hell you are both talking about! What's all this about Satan and attacks and the six demon kings? And why is True Cross Academy in ruins?"

The black haired boy panted as he finally got to blurt out all the questions that had been forming in his head.

"Don't play stupid with us, that's not going to work at all." Arthur spat at him as he placed a hand on his sword. The blond looked to Fujimoto expecting him to say something similar, but instead was shocked to see the man have a pensive look on his face.

"Wait, you're not actually considering what he's saying are you?" The exorcist questioned him.

"But it makes sense. Things just aren't adding up right now…" Shiro rubbed his bearded chin as he thought about the matter. "I mean, why would Satan willingly let his important and only vessel in Assiah get captured, by a greenman of all things, unless he had a plan? And what would that plan be? Only an idiot would think of a plan that involves getting captured like this when there's no chance of escape."

Arthur rolled his eyes and turned to the paladin.

"Do you think I know what a demon thinks like?"

'Yes' Rin thought as he fingered the cuff on his tail.

"I'm only pointing this out. I think we should head back up now." Fujimoto said to his companion as he headed away from the cell and towards the stairs.

"Wait! But we haven't gotten any information from that demon spawn!" The blond argued, pointing a finger at Rin. Shiro ignored this though and continued heading up the stairs, so Arthur had to reluctantly cross the marble floors and head upstairs as well.

"Yeah thanks for answering my questions." Rin muttered sarcastically. "You guys have been a big help."

Still though, Rin couldn't help but feel a bit excited. The old man was alive and not only that, he was still his awesome self! He totally just owned Arthur.

However, using what Rin pieced together from the two exorcists conversation, he realized something horrible.

His parallel self was on Satan's side and had killed a lot of people. Rin was also starting to get the sinking feeling that his parallel self was behind the destruction of True Cross Academy as well.

The half demon sighed and leaned his back against one of the stone walls of the cell.

"What the hell is wrong with my parallel self?" He thought aloud.

'I wish Yukio were here, he could probably use that big brain of his to think of a way to fix this situation. Hell, I'd even wish Bon were here. He's smart too, he could probably think of something as well. Or he'd just yell at me to stop moping around. Actually they both would. Never mind I don't need either of them.'

Rin chuckled softly at this and then lay down on the hard floor. Using his arm as a pillow, the ravenette closed his blue eyes and somehow fell asleep.

* - I used the cell Rin was put in in episode 22, I believe, of the anime. I added more security/barriers to it and took out the bed though lol. I don't think the Order cares about his comfort so yeah. No bed for you Rin

** - This is the spell Shura used in the manga to stop Rin after he started yelling at/attacking Bon because Bon told his dad what Rin had told Shiro. Yeah, I'd like to punch whoever taught Arthur that spell in this parallel world. Oh well, it's better than him chopping Rin's foot off again (or at least that's what it looked like)

Happy Easter!

Wow, I can't believe how fast I got three reviews. And to those who didn't review but added me to their story alerts, thank you ; w ;

So, as a reward I decided to work on a new chapter. I both love and hate this chapter though. I loved it because I got to let Shiemi be useful and k.o. Rin, but at the same time oops, since it's not the Rin she thinks it is. And I hate it because I feel like I could have done the Shiro and Arthur scene better.

Oh and for those of you who think Arthur is too ooc, as in he's supposed to be sucking up more, I like to think that if Shiro were still alive, Arthur would have originally been a kiss up to him, but eventually Shiro's laid back/informal personality would cause him to stop kissing up and speak his mind.

I was wondering, would you guys want any characters from Rin's world to come after him into the parallel one? And if so, which one? If I get enough feedback I might just let Rin not be alone anymore~

Now I will end this extra long A/N, if you're stilll reading this thank you and please review!

Rin: *starts humming "I'm all by myself"*
