So so sorry for not updating in ages, just been very busy with exams at school since this is my final year. But i'll be updating hopefully more frequently now. so here a small chapter to keep everyone satisfied for now :)


"N-no, Ushio stay with daddy" Rin cried as tears and unfortunately a trail of snot ran down his face as he cried into his worn and slightly torn manga, which was hiding behind a demon textbook his brother had assigned the class as homework. Wiping his nose and eyes on his jacket sleeve Rin momentarily looked up from his book to look at the small demon cat sitting on the desk giving Rin quite the quizzical look.

"Why are you crying Rin?" Kuro suddenly asked causing the teen to jump and slam the books closed.

"N-nothing Kuro just, uhm... this history section! Yeah! Really sad stuff" He lied tapping the book with his knuckles and sniffling. Rin had forgotten Yukio had assigned homework duty to Kuro before leaving, trusting the sidth to make Rin actually do his work for once.

Kuro simply stared at the boy before settling back into his previously position on the desk, curling up in the small patch of light that was slowly fading as the sun set behind the distant mountains. Watching the cat with a watchful eye Rin once again picked up his book and its current disguise and continued reading, eyes welling up once more as he read, but made sure this time to keep silent as his eyes every so often slid over to see the dozing cat.

Chuckling under his breath he whispered, "May be a demon, but sleeps as much as a normal cat."

As another hour passed Kuro had remained asleep and Rin had finished his current manga volume. Placing both the book and its disguise down Rin slid off the bed and into a standing position, stretching his back with a small mewl.

Running his tongue over his chapped lips and headed to his desk to retrieve the bottle of water he had refilled just after returning to the room. Taking a sip the demon sighed at the refreshing feeling before jumping in fright as a sudden loud knock echoed off the wooden door of the dorm room. His brows furrowed Rin placed the uncapped bottle on the desk and grabbed his clothed sword before walking over to the door when the knocking continued rapidly.

Grasping the handle Rin slowly turned the knob and opened the door.

"Mephisto?"
