Rin couldn't believe his eyes. There were demons, bigger than the Coal Tar, stronger than the pesky HobGoblins. Yukio clenched Rin's small hand in fear. "Rin… What's going on? All these demons are scary…"

Rin raised an eyebrow. "Scary? Yukio, are you crazy? This is awesome! About half the demons mom talked about are here!"

Yukio shook his head. "No Rin! Demons hurt people! They're mean and scary and I hate them!"

Rin stuck out his tongue. "Well I'm being to be their buddy! If you don't want to come with me, then let me go!"

Yukio didn't loosen his grip. "No! 10 is too young to die!"

Rin was impatient with Yukio. "Fine." Rin bit down onto Yukio's arm. Yukio cried out and finally let go; Rin runs to the blazing monastery. The monastery was burning down as Rin ran in. Yukio couldn't follow his brother's path, it was too scary. He stayed back, praying to God that Rin would be okay.

Rin looked around for demons, there were nothing but ashes until… Rin squinted to see his mother, collapsed in front of a wall. "Mom!", Rin ran to Yuri. He shook her shoulder, hoping it would get her to wake up. Yuri opened her eyes. "Rin… Satan has come to get us."

Rin's eyes widened. "S-Satan? But mom, you're an exorcist. I thought your enemy was Satan!"

Yuri pushed herself up. She patted Rin's head. "I know… but I couldn't help but falling in love with him."

"But mom! What about Yukio, he hated demons! We can't leave him behind! We just can't!", Rin started to pull on Yuri's dress.

Yuri wouldn't budge, she wanted to go with Satan. "I'm sorry Rin. But I've decided. Get Yukio and let's go."

Rin grew angry at what he's hearing. "I can't just make Yukio go by force! If Yukio wants to stay, I'm staying!"

Rin turned around and ran away, leaving his mother behind. The entrance seemed easy to pass, right until the doorway crumbled. Rin was nearly killed. In mere moments, the smoke from the blue flames were getting to Rin. Cursing under his breathe, Rin was knocked unconscious from the smoke.

Yukio stood outside, watching the building burn in Satanic Blue Flames. A hand grabbed Yukio's shoulder. Yukio turned around, hoping it was a fireman or something. It was Shiro.

"Yukio, what happened?", Shiro asked.

"R-Rin and I came here and found blue fire everywhere. Rin ran in and said he wanted to befriend the demons and I couldn't stop him! What if Rin got hurt by a mean demon! How could I ever live with myself?!"

Shiro patted Yukio's head. "Stay here and I'll rid of those scary demons."

Shiro walked away from Yukio, facing the burning monastery. Yukio was helpless to stop the events that are unfolding. Yukio cursed under his breathe, now blaming himself for what will happen.


[In the Monastery]


A demon grabbed Rin, cradling the half-demon (who's still unknowing what he really is) in it's arms. "Quite a fine boy you gave birth to.", the demon said to Yuri in a hissing voice.

"Whatever, get the other one. I don't want to leave without both my children.", Yuri demanded.

The demon nodded. "Satan did choose correctly in whom to mate with."

Suddenly, the demon crumbled to dust, dropping the unconscious Rin. His head banged against a shard of wood, causing slight bleeding. "RIN!", Yuri yelled out. She turned around and saw Shiro, holding a bible.

"The Lord if my strength", Shiro muttered, along with other words from the holy scriptures. One by one, the demons who surrounded the monastery began to turn into black smoke.

"What the hell are you doing Shiro!?", Yuri yelled.

"I'm saving your sons!", Shiro yelled back. "What you're doing may be your decision but don't drag your sons in this!"

A Gehenna Gate would appear out of nowhere, releasing many new demons, in which have greater power than the ones recently exorcized. Shiro cursed out and began yelling out holy passages. As the Paladin, Shiro bested the demons. He picked up Rin and ran out, leaving Yuri behind.

Yukio watched the building start to crumble into hazy ash. Then he saw Shiro, holding Rin in his arms. Yukio smiled. "Mr. Fujimoto! You saved Rin!"

Shiro coughed and laughed. "I sure did!", he said and he grinned.

Yukio looked back the building and then frowned. "But mom…"

Shiro looked at Yukio, frowning back. "There was nothing I could do. Yuri is either dead or in Gehenna with Satan."

"M-mom…", Rin mumbled in his sleep.

Shiro looked at Rin.

"Will he be okay?", Yukio asked.

"Only time will tell…"


[5 years later]


Yukio is an exorcist by then after 4 years of intense struggle and study. He's packing his bags after getting the scholarship. He looks back at Rin, who's been sick for the past 5 years.

[Flashback: 5 years ago (2 days after the monastery burnt down)]

Shiro had brought Rin and Yukio to another monastery, which the ones who ran it gladly let them stay. (I mean, who wouldn't want the Paladin to stay with them?)

"Rin won't stop coughing!", Yukio cried out. "His temperature has gone up by another degree, that makes 103!"

Shiro had went back and forth, trying to find ways to help Rin out. He became sick after large intakes of the smoked from the blue flames. This has never happened to anyone before and it was a huge problem. He was truly afraid at this. Yukio then decided to become an exorcist, just to 'kick Satan's ass' (as was Rin's goal in the original). At this point, Yukio studied all day and night, loosing any chance of a social life due to seclusion.


[Okay, back to where this is.]


Yukio sealed his bags full of clothing and study materials. He was going to teach a class today, a privilege given to very few in his age group.

"By Mr. Fujimoto, I'm going out of town to check out the academy!", Yukio said as he left the monastery.

Shiro smiled and waved. This was probably the last time he would see Yukio like this.
