The Blood Runs Deep into the Ground
Moka hadn't pictured her first day at school like this.
She was expecting a normal day in which she would meet exciting new normal people and make lots of normal friends. Right now, she should be in class, chatting animatedly with her fellow normal students and fully enjoying her normal youth.
Instead, here she was, in the company of the strangest man she had ever met. Their meeting was strange to say the least. She honestly thought that the teen would reject her after she had drunk his blood but he didn't. Instead, he had proposed her his friendship and this little act of kindness would remain forever engraved in her memory. The boy was kind but had the tendency to make... questionable actions.
Like what he was doing right now.
The aforementioned friend was now cackling uncontrollably while dumping bucketfuls of white glue in a strange machine.
When he had asked her to help him accomplish a prank, she accepted, thinking that it would be a simple one. She had never been so wrong.
They were now standing on the roof of the school, right above the gymnasium where the entrance ceremony was held. She frowned and she had a creeping suspicion that the blond's intentions weren't to put a bucket of water on a slightly opened door.
Her hunch was proven correct when he saw him pull out a scroll, opening it and making a strange gesture with his hands. A cloud of smoke blocked her vision and when it dispersed, it revealed a crate. The strange phenomenon arose some questions. Where did it come from? Was it Naruto's doing? What did he do with his hands?
She put those questions at the back of her mind and watched him closely as he opened the box with a crowbar. She widened her eyes when she saw the contents.

The entirety of the student body was now gathered in the school's gymnasium, eagerly waiting for the Headmaster's speech to start so that they could leave as soon as possible. After a few minutes, the teenagers stiffened when they saw a man dressed in priest robes come from the backstage. They had heard from their parents tales of this man, the mysterious Headmaster of the prestigious school of Youkai Academy. They told them to be wary of him as if they ever confronted him directly, they would be utterly destroyed.
So, it was understandable that they were surprised when gallons of glue came from the ceiling and drenched him from head to toe in the sticky substance. Then, a cloud of feathers surrounded him and when the cloud settled, Mikogami looked like he was disguising himself as a chicken. To add insult to injury, a rubber red glove fell on his head, making him look even more ridiculous.
No one dared to even breathe.
Chaos then erupted in the room when a flock of chickens came through the doors of the gymnasium and all the gathered students ran around screaming. Finally, the farm birds all jumped into the air and a rain of eggs fell on the heads of the poor teenagers. Finally, it seemed like Mikogami and the teachers had enough of this and morphed into their monster forms before starting to kill all of the pesky birds. Strangely, instead of exploding into a shower of blood and gore, a decapitated chicken simply… disappeared in a cloud of smoke. The gymnasium was soon cleared out of all the pesky birds and the adults started to order students around to restore order.
Finally, after making sure they were no one injured, they sent the students to their dorms to change into more… respectable clothes. Indeed, translucent white and yellow goo covered their bodies and stained their clothes. They quickly complied and ran to their respective apartment building. However, when they arrived at their dorms, they were shocked to see that all of their clothes had disappeared and were replaced by ORANGE uniforms!
Unfortunately, as much as some of them hated that obnoxious color, they had no choice but to put them on and return to school. There, the teachers-who also wore orange versions of their clothes- gave them their respective identification and class schedule before pointing them towards the direction of their classes. As their first day at school started on a rough start, they was a single question in their minds: who was the mastermind who planned all this?
-X-
The aforementioned "mastermind" was now sitting in front of an irate headmaster who still had the feathers sticking to his body. He leaned back on the chair while trying-and failing-to hold back his laughter.
Mikogami glared at him furiously and tried yet again to detach the annoying and itching "accessories" from his face. After the teachers had evacuated all of the students, he had immediately went to search for the blond. He had quickly found him on the roof where he was rolling on the ground laughing with a pink-haired girl. He had then told him to follow him to his office. Surprisingly, the blond didn't resist and had complied without any complaints after seemingly telling the girl to meet him later at class.
Finally, Naruto managed to calm down and the only signs of his amusement of the situation was a quiet giggling.
"Mr. Uzumaki, I cannot say that our agreement has started… pleasantly. Could you please restore everything to its former state?"
The consequences of the prank were disastrous. The gymnasium was all but ruined, he was sure that the students would complain to their parents of the event, everyone seemed to be wearing orange and worst of all, HE LOOKED LIKE A FUCKING CHICKEN!
"Don't worry, all of it had already been taken care of. However, the uniform will stay orange!"
The kishin rubbed his feather-covered temples in frustration as he felt the beginning of a headache.
The blond has proven himself to be bothersome and unpredictable. It made him think that hiring an unknown entity with unknown abilities and motives with a seemingly infinite amount of power was a bad idea. He shuddered. He was lucky that the youth didn't seem to have any bad intentions as he wasn't sure if you would be able to stop him. Actually, he didn't think ANYTHING in the world could stop him.
"Well, at least you cleaned everything up," he said before gesturing to his state of clothes. "Could you also make them disappear? Nothing I do seems to make them detach."
"That's because it's a particularly potent glue that can only be removed in one way."
He then took out a water gun from a pocket and sprayed him with generous amounts of the liquid. The headmaster was surprised to see the glue dissolve, taking with it the feathers.
(A/N: Can you guess the reference? If so, here's a cookie.)
Mikogami sighed in relief and stretched his liberated limbs.
"Well, Uzumaki, I'll dismiss your behavior this time but if you pull a stunt like this another time, I will consider the contract as broken. Now, since you are already here, we can talk about your mission." He said. He then rested his chin on his crossed hands and his eyes shinned in a sickly light.
"Your mission, like I said before, is to deal with any person or group that threatens the security of the school and the well-being of the students. Here are the school's rules."
He handed to the blond a file who opened it and flicked through its contents.
"This school is a school for monsters destined to educate them and to teach them how to cohabit with humans. So, to train them, I created a rule that everyone in the school must hide their true forms. I don't not know if you are a monster or not but since you appear to be human, this rule won't get in the way of your mission. You must NOT reveal your actual reason to be in the school. If people find out about your identity as a spy, I will deny any knowledge of knowing you or connections between us."
Naruto nodded to that. Mikogami continued.
"There are some troublesome students who may step out of line and it is your job to whip them back to place. However, I'm sure there won't pose any threat to you. There are also some troublesome factions here that you may need to eliminate in the future. First, there is the school's Public Safety Commission. It is a branch of the student council that insures that order reigns in the school. They are the ones who had your job before it slowly began to fall into corruption. They are the primary reason of the school's current state. Its current leader is Kuyo, a Yoko, one of the most powerful type of monsters of the world. He rules over the school by using force and intimidation. He is powerful and his influence is deep. I'm sure you would best him in a fight but he is very influential and has many contacts and allies so watch out."
He handed him another file in which Naruto found details of the Committee and its leader, Kuyo.
"Next is ANTI-THESIS, a group mainly composed of Monstrels, half-breed monsters that take no definitive, physical form of anything classified as a supernatural creature who wish for nothing more than to destroy the current school system. I still haven't found who their leader is so you will have to do some snooping around."
Yet again, Kimogami gave him a file in which he found several reports and photos of suspected members.
"Apart from them, some teachers have been acting suspiciously and it may happen that I would give you specific assignments. I think this is about it. Submit daily reports on your findings and actions and report to me directly if you find anything that could potentially threaten the existence of the academy. You are dismissed."
Naruto nodded to it and saluted him before leaving the room. Mikogami sighed, feeling the weight of his age fall on his shoulders. He then pondered, feeling like he forgot something very important. He waved the feeling off as nothing and started to fill in his paperwork.
In his bus, Nurari fought with his restraints again furiously but was yet again shocked by a powerful electric blast. He laid there and for the first time in centuries, he cried.
