Chapter 4: Don't fight with your sempai, okay?
I owe you guys an apology. Because of my GCSEs, I'm not going to be
able to post as often- let alone start my planned Naruto fic that was
requested- for a little while. I'm just going to have to ask you to bear
with this for a bit, at least until I've got the big tests out of the
way.
In other (unrelated) news, some reviewer said that they thought
paladin were human. Well in my opinion if a witch, who manipulates
nature, can't be counted as a human, then a paladin who commands weird
and unnatural holy powers and auras definitely can't be human. I see
what they mean, but in this case I can't agree with them. Ok, lastly
plz remember to R&R and to do that poll I mentioned last chapter. Now,
on with the story!
Yuuto sat calmly in a chair outside of Tsukune's classroom as he
waited for him to finish opening his present. His patience was
rewarded as he saw a newly invigorated Tsukune run past him into the
class, waving as he did so.
Yuuto waited calmly by the door until it closed again, and at that
moment anyone that saw him would have sworn that he actually deflated.
Yuuto covered his face in his hands and sighed. What am I doing? he
asked himself internally. Do I really want to lose Moka to the likes
of him? He waited a little while, recomposing himself, before walking
in.
Shizuka looked round to see a new student enter the room and sit down.
She was about to comment on his sudden rude entrance when he tossed a
huge fish in her direction, which she promptly caught, and she decided
not to say anything.
Moka was mildly surprised to see Yuuto, and her eyes (along with
everyone else's in the room) widened to the size of saucers when she
saw that he had the nerve to bribe Shizuka with a fish. Inner Moka, on
the other hand, giggled at his bravado.
Yuuto then deliberately caught Tsukune's eye as he made to sit down.
Unfortunately, Saizo (that psycho from chapter 1) had other ideas, and
pulled the chair back. Yuuto suddenly looked tired.
"...Give me my chair back." he said, looking at Saizo's feet. "Please?
I really don't want to fight".
Tsukune's jaw dropped in amazement and shock. Wasn't Yuuto supposed to
be brave?
Saizo however grinned, thinking that he had a new victim to bully with
his strength and size.
"What if I don't want to" he said as he leered at Yuuto.
There was a blinding flash of golden light, and by the time everyone's
eyes has re-adjusted, Saizo was on the floor and smoking very
slightly, about 6 feet from where he had been before.
"Well, I might do that", responded Yuuto. "Did you like the present
Tsukune?" he asked as he sat down. Tsukune and Moka had to laugh.
After the lessons, despite an attempt to escape, Moka managed to
drag Yuuto all the way to newspaper club (he had really wanted join
the swimming club because he was hungry) and forced him to sign up.
"Why do we have to let him join?" said Yukari and Gin in unison as
they saw Yuuto walk into the classroom, led by Moka (who happened to
be holding his hand). Moka blushed and let go as she introduced him to
everyone in the room.
"Everyone, this is Tsukioni Yuuto. He's our new...umm sales director."
As she turned to face Yuuto, she whispered to him. "Don't fight with
Gin-sempai, okay?"
Yuuto looked at her questioningly, before nodding slightly and turning
to everyone and opening his mouth to speak.
"We've met before... I apologise for knocking you out Mizore."
Tsukune looked surprised at this. "You've met Gin before?"
Even more surprisingly, neither Gin nor Yuuto offered an answer to
this. Gin was too busy glaring at Yuuto, who seemed to believe himself
above glaring and pretended to absorbed in the previous article of the
school paper. Tsukune felt personally responsible for the tension and
apologised to nobody in particular.
Yuuto, still reading, reached into his pocket to get another one of
the transfusion packs he tended to have, but a moment later, his hand
withdrew, holding nothing. He frowned and looked in another pocket.
Again he found nothing. His eyes widened and he dropped the newspaper,
frantically searching his pockets. As he did so, his hair began to
grey, and his eyes turned red. Tsukune ran forward to help, but was
thrown backwards by an aggressive strike. Now Yuuto was leaning on a
desk and panting heavily, but trying to say something. His hair,
instead of going silver, stopped at a sort of light graphite as his
breathing stabilised. After a long pause, Moka spoke up.
"While a dhampir needs less blood than vampires, the effect is much
more exaggerated when they are deprived of it. Since Yuuto has been
drinking wolf blood for the past few days as opposed to human blood
(Gin growled) he needs a lot more of it. My other self can smell the
type of blood, in case you were wondering how I know this. Anyway-"
She was cut off by Yuuto, who leapt towards her, muttering something
to himself. Tsukune dived toward Moka to protect her, and a second
later they collided. A second later, they all collided in a writhing
ball of arms and legs. During the mess, Moka's rosario got removed
(this seems to happen every single time Tsukune gets close to Moka,
and I'm starting to get sick of it) and everyone was pushed back by
the epic wall of yoki, as per usual.
Tsukune looked around his person for the rosario, but it was nowhere
to be found so he turned around to see a rather shocking sight- Yuuto
was sucking Moka's blood, holding in his hands her rosario! As he and
everyone else watched, Yuuto's sanity visibly returned. He stopped
sucking, and the slowly and deliberately licked the wound to seal it.
Moka, meanwhile, was blushing heavily and evidently far too stunned to
just beat the crap out of Yuuto for doing that. Evidently, Yuuto's
sense of logic was back, as he made to put the rosario back on before
Moka could do anything. Moka snapped out of it, and put her hand on
the rosario to stop him doing anything with it. He swallowed
nervously, expecting a kick to come any second. She held his gaze for
a while, then bit into his neck too. She then replaced the rosario on
the chain. As she collapsed and her hair turned pink once again,
everyone stared at Yuuto, who for once had let his usual mask of
apathy slip, and a smile was slowly creeping across his face.
The spell was shattered in a flash of furious werewolf, who had lost
every scrap of self control and was charging at Yuuto like some kind of
supernatural bull charging at its prey. Yuuto reacted just in time, catching
both of Gin's hands before they crushed his throat.
"I'm sorry to disappoint" he said quietly, though his voice dripped
with venom, "but I'm not allowed to fight you. However, now that I
think about it, you're only my sempai whilst we're at school... Let's
meet outside of the male dorms at 10. On second thought, let's meet at
the females. Knowing you, you'll be there anyway." He turned around
and made for the door. "Oh, Tsukune, you're welcome to come too. In
fact, bring Moka with you."
Tsukune, sitting down with tears streaming down his cheeks, barely
heard him.
Looks like I went a bit overboard this chapter lol. Don't worry,
tsuxmoka isn't done for yet. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to
watch TV.
