"So what are you?" Asks Kurumu as Danny laid on the bed in his dorm room, his left arm and chest bandaged and his right arm in a black and silver cast.

"I'm not allowed to tell you." Danny monotoned.

"Please?" She begged, sitting down at the foot of the bed"No." Danny reiterated

"But-"

"Non, nein, nyet, nah, No" Danny re-reiterated.

"Please?" She begged again.

"He said no!" Shouts Moka from where she was sitting with Tsukune.

"Moka's right. If he doesn't want to tell us, and seeing as neither of you can figure it out based of what you saw when he was in his other form, I guess we'll only know if he or a staff member tells us." Says Tsukune, having a rare period of clear-headedness.

"That's just it. None of us could figure it out. We've never seen anything else like him before." Says an exasperated Moka

"Yeah. I've never seen anything like you." Says Kurumu seductively, rubbing up against his leg.

"Um, Kurumu. Judging by what he's been through today, I don't think he'd even be able to do much." Says Tsukune.

"He wouldn't have to. All he would have to do is be there." Says Kurumu, blushing after hearing what she just said.

"First of all, he will not tell you what he is, nor is he interested in a relationship at the moment. Not since Sam." Danny says irritatedly, getting depressed and mumbling the last sentence.

"Sam? Who's that?" Asks Moka.

"Sam is . . . was . . . an old friend, and my first and only girlfriend." He whispers dejectedly, showing the most emotion they've seen from him.

"Was?" asks Moka.

"Was." Danny quietly affirms.

"What happened to her?" Asks a shocked Kurumu. But Danny didn't respond, all he did was shift a bit so he was looking out his window.

After a few minutes of everyone silently thinking Tsukune shivers and looks around for the thermostat.

"Why is it so cold in here?" He asks.

"Oh, my apologies. That would be me." Says Danny, no longer reminiscing about Sam. After receiving questioning looks he speaks up again.

"Whenever I heal a relatively bad wound the room I'm in gets colder, depending in the severity of the wound." He said.

"Thanks, that just makes it even harder to figure out what you are!" Shouts an exasperated Kurumu, throwing her hands up into the air.

"Sooo Moka. How well do you think you did on midterms?" Asks Tsukune in an attempt to relieve the tension in the room.

"I don't know. Why don't we go check on the board in the courtyard? I saw a teacher putting up the results earlier."

"Yeah. I might as well get up also. I'm already getting stir crazy." Danny Said as he got up and out of bed.

"But these bandages are annoying." The ring on his finger morphs into a black-bladed, silver-edged, karambit with a blue and green handle, which he uses to cut off his bandages. The other three people gasp when they reveal a few large and red scars on his arm, among other white scars. Although only Moka's enhanced vision could see the hundreds of smaller scars layering his arm.

"What?" All three ask as he rolls the arm of his sleeve back down his arm.

"I heal fast." He says, reaching for the cast on his right arm and squeezes the cast. After a moment the cast shatters and falls to the ground, revealing his unbroken arm. The Karambit morphs back into a ring and he turns towards the door.

"Come along. Lets go see how we did on those midterms." And he walked off, with Tsukune, Moka, and Kurumu following.

"I'm number one hundred and twenty eighth. Well, it could have been worse." Says Tsukune as he looks back at a group of students who are excited about getting all D's.

"Yay! Tsukune look! I got thirteenth place!" Moka called as she ran over to glomp Tsukune, to the disdain of the male populace of the school, sans Danny.

"I only got one hundred and sixty ninth place." Moped Kurumu.

"I got 1st place. Sweet." Deadpanned Danny

"WHAT?! YOU GOT FIRST?!" Yelled Tsukune and Kurumu simultaneously.

"Yes. Why?" Asked Danny with a bored tone. The two just sputtered their disbelief, seeing as he had just gotten to the school. Just before they could get their act together enough to speak in full sentences Danny turns around, hearing something.

"Well, well, well. Looks like our resident witchy genius got shown up. How's it feel to be second place?" Said a creepy looking tall kid with two goons standing behind him.

"At least I'm not in sixty eighth place, idiot." The young girl standing in front of him mumbled.

"What was that kid?" The tall boy asked menacingly.

"Nothing, class president." She said submissively. Just as the class president was about to respond condescendingly, Danny walked up behind her and laid his hand on her shoulder and glared at the boy.

"You do know that it is usually only the weaker people who need goons or bodyguards to back them up. The only time a real man needs a group of weaker people behind him is when the one he is up against is too stupid to recognize when they are outmatched. I suggest you learn that the easy way by backing down now." Danny said with a relatively disinterested tone of voice, emulating Clockwork with a good helping of Vlad's superior tone. The class president steps forward angrily, obviously not learning the lesion he was just told of, when one of his goons grabs him by the arm.

"We can't reveal ourselves now. That's against the rules class president."

"Fine. But we will be finishing this later." The three walk off as Danny gets down on his knee to look the young girl in the face.

"Ignore those idiots, their mean and not worth the time it would take to shut them up."

"But, why did you help me? I'm just a witch." asks the little girl "My names Yukari by the way."

"Well I don't exactly know. There are a few reasons why I would help you, besides the inability to not help an adorable little girl like you. There's the fact that those idiots irritate me. It could have been common decency. Or maybe it was because you remind me of my daughter, Danielle." As Danny said this Yukari was steadily blushing harder and harder, making Danny smirk more and more. As he said the final possibility she looked at him curiously.

"How could you have a daughter, you're only what? Sixteen?" She asked, still blushing badly. Danny leans in to whisper into her ear.

"It's confusing, just like me. I'm much older than I look, trust me." He whispered. And then stood up and spoke regularly.

"Now come on. I don't trust those idiots even a fraction as far as I could throw them, which is pretty damn far." He said, laughing as he walked over to his 'group'. They stared at him, seeing as it was the first time they had heard him laugh.

"Hello everyone, I would like you to meet my new friend, Yukari Sendo. Yukari Sendo, meet Tsukune, Moka, and Kurumu." The three look down at the uncomfortable and blushing girl. Moka's eyes double in size and she glomps onto the little girl.

"You are the cutest little girl I have ever seen! I just want to hug you forever!" Squealed Moka as she hugged Yukari tightly, who seemed to be In heaven.

"Yep, she definitely is." Said Danny as he ruffled her hair, her hat was lying on the floor from the vigorous hugging, Yukari looked even more content and got a bit of a nosebleed.

'Yep, just like Danielle, but a bit more pervy.'

The school day passes in a blur of movement and sound and images, many of which are Tsukune getting hit, Moka being groped by Yukari, and Yukari sitting on Danny's Shoulders on hanging on his neck like a cape. Finally Seventh hour arrives, Danny's free hour, and the blur slows down to reveal Danny walking towards his practice clearing.

'Ugh. Its been such a long day with Yukari hanging off Moka and I. At least I have a free hour now. Time to get a bit of practice in.' Thinks Danny as he walks though the woods, occasionally seeing a glimpse of white, purple, or dark blue but ignoring it, seeing as it wasn't presenting itself as a danger towards him. As he nears the clearing he hears voices coming from it. He walks in to see the class president and his two goons transforming into lizard-men and ganging up on Yukari. His eyes glow green as a ring of white flame appears at his feet and shoots upward in a brilliant flash of light, gaining the lizard-men's attention. They turn around and see him in his Hades form. Now just that would be scary when he's just bored and fighting like it. But now he's mad. And when Hades is mad, the smart thing is to get on your knees and beg for forgiveness. But these lizard men were not smart in the least, and acted accordingly.

"Hey Yukari, guess what?" Danny called out in a positively neutral tone, completely unlike how he was acting earlier.

"What?" Squeaked Yukari.

"Here I was, walking down to the clearing I fount to train, and what do I see? A beautiful young lady being threatened by a dung-for-brains class president and his dumber-than-a-sack-of-hammers bullyboys. And would you like to know what happens when I see something like this? I get angry, and these idiots had better hope they didn't harm a hair on the head of the aforementioned pretty little girl. Because if they did, not only will they get the beating of their life's, I might be tempted to add on an extra beating for every hair they touched." Said Danny, Growing more and more angry and scary with each word he says, ending with him spitting out each word on the last sentence venomously. The lizard men looked at each other and charged at Danny in a snarling, fanged, and clawed wall of scaly flesh. Danny simply flipped over the three idiots and calmly walked over to Yukari.

"You okay Yukari?" Queried Danny

"They, they broke my wand." Sobbed Yukari, holding out the shattered grip of her wand.

"May I?" He asked, gesturing to the stump of a wand. Yukari nodded and
Danny took it from her and slipped it into one of the pockets, drawing a small gasp as the ten inch remnant of a wand slipped into the four inch deep pocket. Danny looked down at her and smiled for the first time since he had gotten there. Not a self satisfied smirk or a taunting grin, but a true smile.

"Shh, their bigger in the inside." Danny said with a wink and finger to his lips. He reaches into a thin pocket on his right hip and pulls out a wooden wand with skull and feathers designs etched onto it with a crown on the base. Yukari looks at the wand in wonder but sees the lizard men charging again. She squeals and points behind Danny. He turns points the wand at them.

"AVIS" A flock of onyx and silver ravens explode from a green light at the tip of his wand. As the ravens fly he pulls back his wand and slings another spell.

"OPPUGNO" The Ravens fly straight at the three lizard men and start hassling them, but not really attacking them. Danny snickers at their high-pitched screams. He reverses his grip on the wand and hands it down to her.

"Thestral Heartstring and Bristlecone Pine. Life, Death, and Immortality, all in one. Now, I want you to cast the Inrita spell in the ravens." Says Danny, Yukari casts said spell and the ravens disappear in a burst of black light and silver sparks, with the harsh cry of a raven following. Danny turns to the bedraggled lizard men and moves his arm, almost as if he was shaking away a numb feeling. The ring on his right arm swells and encompasses his forearm after a few seconds his arm is half flesh and half metal, coming down to a spike a foot longer than his regular arm. He looks down at it.

"No, that's too good for some child eating idiots like you. Hmm . . . Yes, that's perfect." The spike on his arm retreats back and forms a loop, and another loop. The loops continue until a twenty foot silver and black chain with whips of cold air flowing down from the chains. He whips the chain around above his head, generating subzero winds. The chain shoots out at one of the goons and wraps around him but then releases, leaving a skin of frost where it touched him. A hauntingly cold voice echoes from Danny.

"So! You puny little idiots thought you could try and hurt my friend did you? Well guess what. The! Tables! Have! Turned!" He shouts. The chain whips out of the small ice vortex it had created, quickly coating the idiots in a skin of ice. The vortex slows and reveals Danny standing there with the chain coiled evenly around his feet. He stand for a second before The links dissolve back into his hand. Just as he turns the three Lizard men break out of their icy prisons and growl at Danny and Yukari. He just sighs and the rind reforms into a ten-foot bo stave with the same color scheme as the chain whip. The lizard men charge and in a split second Danny is in front of them, spinning the stave into their mouths, breaking about a third of their cumulative teeth and launching them into the trees, unconscious. He turns to Yukari and holds his hand out for his wand, which she gladly returns. He taps the pocket with her wand in it and puts his ways. He pulls out her wand, completely repaired and returns it.

"If you'd like I could make you a better, more durable and powerful wand, Yukari."

"Yes please, thank you. So you're a witch?" Asks Yukari.

"Yes and no. I am a wizard, but I'm so much more." He transforms and picks up Yukari, placing her on his shoulders and walking out of the clearing, telling her all about him, but not really knowing why.

(Two days later)

"So have you heard? About Yukari?" Asks Kurumu to Moka as they are walking to their class.

"Yeah, I hear she has been reciprocating for all the bad she did to her classmates, she has even been getting a bit popular with the boys." Responds Moka.

"Yeah, but their all perverts unfortunately."

"'Tis a shame she cant attract a more respectable crowd, is it not?" Says Danny as he appears between them with Yukari hanging off his neck. The two girls jump a foot in the air in terror. Yukari laughs and hugs Danny's neck tighter.

"Your right, that was really fun. I can see why you do it so much." says Yukari as Danny laughs deeply along with her, dropping his monotone façade for the first time in front of the other girls, making Kurumu blush heavily. Although Moka just thought of how different his laugh was compared to Tsukune's, and promptly blushes at the thought of Tsukune laughing.

Blah! Its finally done! Now I get to decide what to do for the next chapter. Either episode four, five, or six. I'll probably have the next chapter out by next Wednesday, sooner if I get a lot of reviews, lets just say ten reviews. BYE!
