Shadow to Vampire 3

Chapter Four – a few Answers and an annoying Succubus part 1

- Tsukune's inner world-

Tsukune opened his eyes only to find himself in the dark space again. 'Where am I?' his though echoed trough the abyss. The same door appeared again, but this time he had control over his actions. He reached out slowly and, unlike the other times, nothing happened. He entered, only to find himself in what appeared to be his room back in the human world – only it seemed to be more spacious and instead of a wall on the left, there was a dark space. He also noticed that next to the door he came from there were two more – the first looked like an ancient demonical black door like from a museum, while the other was made from metal and was chained like it was taken directly from an asylum. The teen also noticed that on the right there was another room, connected with an arch, which seemed like a kitchen from where he stood. Also, there was a delicious smell coming from there.

"Ah Host you're here take a seat I'll be done in a second." The voice that sounded like the one in his head but without the echo or dark tremor came from the kitchen. Tsukune looked at the middle of the room and saw that were two couches one facing the dark wall and the other facing the kitchen, between them there was a more western style table like. The teen was curious about the voice so he tried to take a peek at the kitchen. He only caught glimpse of a black mist like demon tale before it was shouted.

"Don't peak, dumbass!" a plate flied out and hit the corner of the kitchen entrance, breaking to pieces. The teen was startled and quickly took a seat on the table that was facing the black space. After a few minutes and a lot of sounds from the kitchen someone shouted

"OK, dinner's ready!" and from the kitchen came a figure that clearly wasn't human – his hands were like claws, he had a tail, his head resembled a dragon's and to top it off, it was absorbed by darkness. His eyes were black with red spited pupils. He was caring two platters, each with a steak, a cup of rice, a bowl of ramen and a bowl of miso soup. The creature settled the plates on the two sides and went back, bringing out two cups, which it poured Cola in. Tsukune was staring at the black entity with a WTF look on his face which caught its attention.

"Is there something wrong, host?" it asked, sitting on the opposite couch. Tsukune could only shake his head in disbelief and the creature took it as a 'No'. "OK, let's eat then, I wasn't sure what you'd like, so I made both western and eastern meals." The entity took the fork and knife and started with the steak. Tsukune was confused, but took the ramen some time later. After a while the creature had already finished its meal and was drinking from his glass, while Tsukune had only the miso soup left and after a few seconds later he put the bowl down on the table.

"Who or… what are you?" The teen was finally able to make a normal sentence. The dark creature looked at him and put the glass he had in his hand down on the table, his demonic mouth forming a smile.

"It was about time you asked me that question." The entity settled back on the couch. "I am a 'Shadow Demon God' and my name is well… Arthemis. I have been in you soul for over a month now." Tsukune was seriously lost by now and the demon noted that.

"If you are wondering why I'm talking to you now, it's because only recently I was able to connect to you. I started to wake only after you entered Youkai Academy. It's possible the reason for that to be the great amount of demonic auras or maybe the presence of a 'Shadow Lord'?" The demon identified as Arthemis seemed unsure himself, but the mention of a "Lord" made something in Tsukune react.

"Lord as if in Lord Dark Scythe?" the teen asked carefully as Arthemis looked at him.

"Possibly, but the point is that you're no normal human, my dear boy. You're a chosen one, a descendant of an ancient god we follow or, as we in the 'Shadow realm' call you, 'Lordblood'. Tsukune was confused beyond imagination.

"Damn it, I don't understand! I can hardly comprehend this place and you, too! And from nowhere you're suddenly telling me all that stuff ?! It's just too confusing!" the teen put his hand on his head; he was hoping he wasn't going crazy, but in the same time he was hoping that this was all just a dream. The demon looked slightly disappointed and sighed.

"I guess it is hard to comprehend right now. But this may help - I will answer you some of your questions, about three of them." Tsukune looked up, thinking for a while.

"OK then, where am I?" the chosen human asked in an attempt to clear up everything.

"Very well. This is your inner world, the borderline between your soul and the 'Shadow realm'. In other words, your own space, which I will be sharing with you from now on. The opened door over there is mine." Arthemis pointed at the door next to the one Tsukune came from." The chained door and the dark space will remain off limit as it is still too early for you to open. That was your first question, two more left." The shadow demon had two of his demonic fingers up. Tsukune though again, he had to make the most of the last two questions.

"OK, earlier when I blacked out after Saizou's hit and before that, did you help me?" It seemed that Arthemis was glad, because he was grinning.

"Yes and No. Now to explain – 'Yes', because I did not approve of the attitude of that weakling towards a 'Lordblood' and me, he should very well know his place as she put it and – 'No' because my power and I were summoned by your strong emotions and will to protect the vampire." The demon stated with a smirk and put one more finger down." Last one, host, chose wisely." Tsukune looked down, his bangs covering his eyes. After a few minutes he spoke with a light chuckle.

"You know that I have an ocean of questions to ask you, but you're limiting me to one now… but despite that, there is one question I want you to answer the most… Can I trust you?" the teen spoke, revealing his eyes full of determination. Arthemis gave a whole hearted laugh.

"Perfect question, host, you have gained some points on my side, but back to the question. Hmmmm… well, it depends. If you are referring to me as a person, then the answer is yes, you can, but if you are referring to my powers, then you will have to prove yourself first." That just raised more questions to Tsukune. 'His powers?' "What do you mean?" Arthemis smirked at his human companion.

"Sorry, host that makes three. If you want more information, talk to Dark Scythe, he may have the knowledge you seek. Always wanted to say that, but anyway… bye for now, you have to wake up." the demon waved at Tsukune as the teen felt darkness overtaking him. "See ya, host!" was the last thing he heard before he was totally unconscious.

- in Tsukune's dorm room-

Tsukune awoke from his dream with a start. That was a very exhausting dream for him, but at least he was satisfied with some answers for now. He got up and headed to the boys' dorm bath. There he noticed that some of his classmates and residents had reverted to their monster forms. When he was done with his regular morning routines, he headed back, only to bump into someone.

"Sorry about that." The person Tsukune bumped in to apologized and as the teen looked who it was and realized it was Dark Scythe.

"Scythe-san?" Tsukune was rather surprised. Dark Scythe had only his jeans on, so Tsukune could see the many dagger-like tattoos on the upper side of his arms as well as the demon in a frame of dark mist on The Lord's back. The thing that amazed the human teen the most was that the hood Scythe always had was actually attached to his skin.

"Ah, Tsukune-kun, I was on my way back to my room, would you like to accompany me?" the 'Lordblood' teen nodded and followed Dark Scythe to his room. On the way there Tsukune was trying to come up with what exactly to ask him and after a while he finally arranged his thoughts.

"Um, Lord-san, can I ask you something?" Scythe didn't even turn to him.

"Well, Tsukune-kun, you should ask me on the way to school, 'cause now I will hardly pay you any attention." Dark Scythe's face was emotionless. "I need my Cola first, but that aside, we're here."They stopped at room number 442 and it was then that Tsukune realized he was right next to him since his room was 443.

"Hey, Lord-san, how about you wait for me, since we're neighbors." Dark Scythe looked at Tsukune's room number.

"Really? Didn't know. Well, in that case, see ya in 15 minutes." Scythe said as he entered his room and closed the door.

'I'm begging to doubt he will be able to answer my questions.' The human teen thought to Arthemis. 'Really, my doubts were just cleared.' The demon spoke as a matte-of-fact'How?' 'Those tattoos on his back and arms were cursed 'Shadow marks' and the fact that his hood comes directly though the skin proves even further that he is a 'Lord'.' 'This is still just too weird, but if he can answer my questions, than I have no objections.' Tsukune entered his room to get ready for school and came out 15 minutes later only to see Dark Scythe waiting for him. Both of them made their way down to the lobby and not even ten steps out of the dorm Dark Scythe was on the ground with a very lively Angel on top of him.

"Angel, Get OFF!" Scythe yelled annoyed. After three minutes the three of them were on their way, with Angel clinging to Scythe. Tsukune though it was a good time to voice his questions.

"Uhm, Scythe-san, can I ask my questions now?" Dark Scythe only nodded in agreement. "OK then, my first question would be, are you a Shadow Lord?" Tsukune asked carefully as the Dark Scythe smiled demonically.

"Yes, I am, Tsukune-kun. Like you, I have 'Lordblood' in my genes but I am a true Lord now. I see you have entered the stage where you can communicate with your demon. That's good." The Lord turned to Tsukune. "Anything else?" The human teen visibly stiffened.

"Is Angel one too?" the 'Lordblood' teen asked trying to rearrange his thoughts. 'He knew I was like him and about Arthemis! Just how much does he know?'

"No, she isn't, but she is still connected to the Shadows nonetheless." Scythe looked away from Tsukune. "I see that you have a lot of questions about what exactly is going on. Hmm… how about we settle this after school, it will be easier. Besides, I think you wouldn't want to involve her." The Lord said with a smirk.

"Involve who?" Tsukune asked himself. "Good Morning, Tsukune!" and there was his answer. Moka had jumped on her friend.

"Good morning to you, too, Moka-chan." Tsukune couldn't hold the blush back from the fact that her breast were smashing against his back. The pink haired vampire looked over to the Lord and Dark Angel.

"Who are your friends?" Moka asked, smiling. Tsukune glanced at the Lord and Angel and then back at his bloodsucking friend.

"Them, well, they are the first people I met here at the academy and they are also our classmates. He is Steven DarkScythe, but prefers the name Lord Dark Scythe." The almost human teen said, gesturing at Dark Scythe. He then pointed at the girl who was clinging to the Lord. "And she is Arina Deron, but she prefers to be called Dark Angel." Angel smiled at the pink haired girl.

"Nice to meet you. You're Akashiya Moka, right? It's great, I get to see the school's most popular girl… but you know, mphn…" she was cut off by Scythes hand on her mouth. He shot a death glare at her from under his hood and then Angel hung her shoulders apologetically with Dark Scythe letting go of her. The Lord then turned to Tsukune and Moka.

"Nice to meet you, vampire." Scythe said with a small grin, shocking both of them. Tsukune was the first to recover.

"Lord-san how did you…?" 'He was probably watching you from the darkness when you wanted to leave yesterday. Also the Shadows have a saying that says that the Lord knows and sees everything.' Arthemis spoke calmly. 'That does make sense. He also knew you had made contact with me.' The human teen thought back to his inner demon.

"We'll be going on ahead." Dark Scythe announced and went ahead with Dark Angel still clinging to his arm.

"Bye, Tsukune-kun and by the way, Moka-chan, we're friends from now on! See ya both in class." Angel said before both she and Scythe disappeared in the crowd of students.

"We should get going, too, Moka-chan." Tsukune turned to his companion and saw that she looked a bit uneasy and that she was blushing a bit.

'I wonder what's wrong with Moka-chan.' Tsukune thought to himself. 'You're an idiot if you fall for that!' 'What do you mean, Arte?' a bit of awkward silence followed. '…What. The. Fuck. … Arte?! What is this Arte stuff ?!' 'Well Arthemis is a bit long, so…' 'I don't give a damn, you will call me Arthemis, period! Anyway, she wants some of you blood, you idiot.' 'I guess you're right.' Tsukune thought tiredly. The teen felt a hand on his face and was brought out of his conversation looking at the beautiful girl in front of him. Moka seemed to be worried.

"What is it, Moka-chan ?" he smiled at the pink haired vampire.

"Well, I was calling your name, but you didn't answer me, so I got worried. Are you alright?" Tsukune gave a nervous chuckle. 'Note to self - learn how to talk to Arthemis without spacing out.' 'Note taken.'

"Nah, I'm fine, Moka, I was just thinking about something. By the way, are you by any chance thirsty?" the pink haired vampire jumped a little while Tsukune was as calm as ever when he asked that question. 'Strange, I thought I would freak out only at the thought of her, sucking my blood?' 'Well… As our connection grows stronger, the emotions which are hard for you to express or suppress will become lighter to you. Like, for example, you're facing an enemy that you can defeat, but looks scary, you would normally panic, right? Well with our connection, when you face him, deep down inside you want to defeat the enemy and it will be easier to overcome your panic.' 'I don't understand much, but is that the reason why I am not going crazy at the fact that there are monsters all around me?'

"Tsukune!" "Uh-hn What?" Tsukune concentrated at Moka again.

"Are you sure you're okay, you space out a lot. I'm worried!" she was unconsciously griping his hand with strength that would normally crush a normal human's and make him cringe in pain. 'That thing you were talking about, can it suppress pain?' 'Yes.' came Arthemis's answer dully. 'That clears everything up.'

"Don't worry, Moka-chan. Now, are you thirsty?" Moka swore her heart skipped a beat when he asked his question again.

'How did he know…? I hope he doesn't see me as a blood sucking monster. What should I do?!' Sealed Moka panicked, while deep inside the Rosary, Inner Moka was ready to kill her outer self.

'Can't that stupid girl see that he is willingly offering himself?! Damn this stupid Rosario, I would take up his offer in a blink of an eye!' but her words went unheard by Outer Moka, still the Rosary glowed as its red eye opened as if responding to the true Vampires rage. The glow distracted Sealed Moka.

"Moka-chan, if you are thirsty, just say so. I would gladly give you some of my blood if you need it." The pink haired Vampire stared at Tsukune. For her it was like this – OMFG, he's known her for like three days and he is going to let her drink willingly!? She couldn't say a word, so instead she just nodded her head and looked away from Tsukune while blushing like a tomato. The Human boy laughed at his friend as he lowered his collar, exposing his neck.

"Here you go, Moka-chan. Drink up." The pink haired vampire's embarrassment quickly disappeared as she caught a smell of his blood and approached her friend, about to bite in.

"Itadakimasu. Cappu-chu ~" Moka bit into his neck. 'His blood is so delicious. But it's even tastier then before and I am relieved he trusts me enough to let me drink willingly… but why did the rosary glow?' the vampire thought, a few more gulps of Tsukune's blood distracted her from that question. Now let's see what Tsukune's thinking.

'… so that is going to happen if you don't tell her to stop when you fell light headed.' (we seem to have missed out on something important but it keeps suspense.) 'Uh-hum but I still don't get it! What's the difference?' 'Well like I told you – your power starts to awaken but with it the 'Shadows Instinct' as well and it would be bad if she drank that blood.' Arthemis stated clearly warning him. 'Why so? ...uhr I'm starting to feel light headed.'

Tsukune came back to reality. "Moka-chan, could you please stop now? I feel lightheaded." The vampire retrieved her fangs and licked the bite wound so it could heal. When she was done, she stepped back with a slight blush and a very happy smile.

"Thanks a lot, Tsukune that was simply delicious." The human teen smiled happy, she was satisfied.

"No problem, Moka-chan but we should get going, so that we're not late for class." The pink haired nodded and clung to Tsukune's arm. The teen blushed, but not because she was clinging to him, but because he could feel her c-cup breast on his arm. Despite that, he didn't say anything and they both continued on their way to class.

From the nearby tree the two were watched by a girl with a jealous expression. She was the freshman Kuruno Kurumu.

"So, she is the famous Akashiya Moka." Kurumu spoke her name as if she is some kind of pest. "I won't let you have my title of school idol and what luck - she seems rather close to the first I met on campus. What was his name again? … ah, yes - Aono Tsukune." She had menacing smile on her face as she headed towards the school building. 'Just you wait, Akashiya Moka. I'll show you who the true beauty of this school is.'
