Chapter 2
Exercise was not one of Tsukune's favorite things by any means. But running was ones of the things he could do pretty well. In middle school he had to learn how to run fast because he was always being picked on. So the pace he ran with Kurumu hardly tired him at all, yet she wasn't even breaking a sweat. They kept running hoping they would get to the school before class started. After another three minutes of running Tsukune was wondering if they would ever get to the school. He found his mind starting to wander with ideas of what the school would be like. Unfortunatly he was so distracted he failed to hear Kurumu tell him to stop in time.
Thump.
This seems familiar. He thought as he lay on the ground once again.
"Owwwie" He heard a high pitched voice say.
Like before he looked at the person currently sitting next to him. She was incredibly cute.
Her eyes were a misty green color and her skin was a soft pale color which made the pink tint in her cheeks stand out. What he found interesting was her hair was pink, which was the second person with odd colored hair.
"Are you okay?" he asked the cute girl.
"Yeah sorry, I was hungry and didn't look where I was going… mmm you smell so good" she said getting closer to him with a strange look in her eyes that made him nervous.
"What are yo-"
"Capuu~" she said as she bit his neck and drank some of his blood.
"Ahhhhh! My blood!"
"Hey what are you doing to him?" A very annoyed looking Kurumu said to the pink haired girl.
"Oh sorry I was just really hungry. Do you not like vampires?" She said swaying back and forth while twirling her skirt.
"Is she serious?" he thought.
"Well vampires are different like everyone else right? So I don't mind."
"Eh they are okay I guess." Kurumu said reluctantly agreeing with Tsukune.
"Yay!" The pink vampire girl yelled hugging both of them.
Tsukune laughed while Kurumu tried to act like she was annoyed, even though she had a hint of a smile on her lips.
"This new girl was pretty cute, but then again Kurumu was also really pretty, not to mention she had a kind heart, even though she pretended she didn't like the vampire girl.
"Oh my name is Moka" The pink haired girl said with a smile.
"I'm Tsukune and this is my friend Kurumu" He replied.
"Nice to meet you both, I hope we can be friends" Moka said in her bubbly way.
Kurumu sighed and said "Well we better get to class or we will be late."
The group of three hurried the rest of the way until they saw the school. It was like an old Victorian style mansion, very common in the West but not very common here in Japan. After looking it over for a minute or two, taking in the long white spires along the railways and the V-shaped arches above the windows, Kurumu dragged them inside the impressive building and they looked for their classes.
Once inside they noticed there were still students walking along the odd shaped blue and white tiles.
Then came a collective, Whew.
Much to their surprise they managed to make it just before the bell rang to class 1-2. The teacher seemed nice and told them to take their seats. They sat in the back of the classroom, Kurumu in the corner, with Tsukune in front of her, and Moka to her side. Tsukune couldn't help but smile. The sun was bright and joyful, the teacher was friendly and two of the most attractive girls in school were his friends. Life was finally turning around for him.
"Alright class welcome to your first year at Yokai Academy. I'm your teacher for this year Miss Nekonome. As you know this a school for monster. While humans control almost all of the world for us demons to survive we must learn to blend in so rule one is you must stay in human for except for special circumstances."
"Yep school for monsters." Tsukune though and smiled.
"..."
"Huhhh?" He said and jumped up from his seat.
When he realized everyone was staring at him he sat back down and looked terrified.
"And the second rule is you should reveal your true identity to anyone else." Continued the teacher.
"That's stupid if we see a human why not just kill them, that's what I would do" said the grotesque looking guy next to Tsukune, while sticking his abnormally long tongue out looking and glancing over at him.
"Let's see your name is Siazo right?" Miss Nekonome said though at that point he had pretty much tuned everything out.
Needless to say Tsukune was in disbelief. Was everyone at this school really a monster? Miss Nekonome, even Kurumu and Moka?
"Are you okay Tsukune?" He heard behind him.
Kurumu was looking worried. He hadn't noticed his fists were clenched and he was bending his book.
"Uhh… yeah I'm just not feeling well" he lied to comfort her.
She still looked a bit concerned but he was dealing with too much. He was desperate for class to end.
After class they made their way into the hall where it seemed like everyone was staring at him. Well, they were mostly staring at the two gorgeous girls walking with him, but to him it felt like they were all looking at him.
"Monsters. All of them." He thought looking at the other students.
He was already moving before he caught up with his body. He was sprinting down the hallways, dodging people as he went. He went right out the front door and straight into the woods.
He had to get out of here.
It was about two hours later when he decided to go back. He was far from his home, way farther than the three hours that he thought they went. The bus only came once a month he saw when he got off the bus and saw the schedule.
He started walking back when he heard shouting near by. He ran over to the source of the sound and when he arrived he couldn't quite process what was happening. Moka was laying by a tree as if she were throw, and a huge ugly monster was approaching Kurumu. The monster was grey and packed with hardened tissue and had a long tounge.
Without thinking he ran over and spread his arms in front of Kurumu facing the monster.
Wack.
Then darkness came over him as his vision faded and the muffled sounds of yelling went deaf on his ears.
"Ugh…" Tsukune said as he slowly allowed light to creep into his eyes.
"Tsukune!" he heard two voices say at the same time.
He looked over and saw Moka smiling seeing that he was okay and Kurumu who was holding his hand and… crying?
"Where… Where am I?" he hoarsely said taking the time to look around the white room with curtains around the bed.
"Your in the infirmary, when you stood up too Saizo he smack you across the head and into a tree. You should have seen what Kurumu did to him after that. He shouldn't bother us for a long time" Moka said.
"I was so worried, you were so brave, stupid, but brave" she said wiping her moist eyes and smiling at him.
Did she really care about him this much?
After that the nurse looked him over and released him with only minor bruises.
He walked out with Moka and Kurumu. This was a very weird and scary place, but he had friends who care about him and needed him, he couldn't just leave them. Maybe he was just a human but he couldn't let stop him.
"I might not be here long so I should just enjoy the time I have here, I'll wait a month and then decide, besides what's the worst that could happen, he got his ass kicked by a troll thing, it can't much worse." He thought optimistically.
With that he headed home.
"Home" he thought "and what a strange new home it was."
An: Hello again friends and fans. I'm happy to present chapter 2. I tried to stay as close to the real story as possible but also make the changes that might occur due to the meeting of kurumu. Hope you all enjoy. I should put chapter 3 out within a day or two.
