Chapter 4

Author's Note: This is Demon Rin speaking to his human half and vice versa

This is word emphasis

Shinagawa:

" Onii-chan, are you all right? " Yukio asks his older brother.

Rin was spending the afternoon with his twin while Usagi got some girl time in, he'd been busy with his new job as a demon hunter for the last couple of weeks. " I'm fine, otouto, promise. The threat of war has kept the hypocritical bastards in their places. Neither of us asked to be his sons, now did we? "

" No, we didn't, it's just, what are those suckers you keep popping? "

Rin winces at this question, " Something the Albarn family made for me. "

He takes a swig from his sports bottle, making sure to lick his teeth clean before facing his brother again. Yukio sighs, in other words Rin couldn't tell him anything until they were assured of privacy. He blinks when his twin casually slices through a weaker demon with his claws before retracting them again. " I see, how is Usagi-san anyhow? "

Yukio watches his brother's eyes light up at the mere mention of his girlfriend, meeting Usagi-san had centered his brother, " With me around her grades are pulling up since I actually know how to help her with her homework. She also enjoys the fact that her fan boys admire her from an even further distance now that I'm attending school with her as well. Unfortunately I seem to have gained the dreaded fangirl horde. "

Yukio shudders, " Fan girls are terrifying. "

" You could always throw them Naru's way. " Rin says.

Yukio blushes deeply at the mere mention of Osaka Naru, " Why would I do that, Onii-chan? "

" You think she can't terrify your fan girls away from you? " Rin teases, he'd heard bits and pieces from Naru's end of their phone calls to each other after all.

" Onii-chan, you're terrible! " Yukio exclaims.

Juuban:

Usagi and Naru are currently enjoying the spa section of the new gym that opened up when the blonde curses under her breath as her energy starts dropping off, " Naru-chan, we have to get out of here. "

Naru snaps awake, feeling the energy drain now too. Their masseuses turn into youma forcing the girls to hightail wearing only the towels around them. They look for somewhere to hide when Naru ends up with a nasty slash down her back from an attack. Usagi barricades them into the first room she can find, one of Sango and Miroku's descendants had taught her how to create spiritual barriers. With her free hand she pulls her cell phone out of subspace and dials Rin's number, praying he would answer immediately.

As the doors are pounded upon to seek entrance, she had also made sure to extend the barrier throughout the whole room, no way in hell was she going to allow sneak attacks from windows or vents. - Usa-chan, I thought you and Naru were taking some well- deserved R and R?-

- We were until we realized we waltzed right into a Dark Kingdom trap, Naru's got a pretty bad slash down her back, I have us currently barricaded into a room with a spiritually powered barrier up. We could use some help, Rin. Oh, right, warn your twin that we escaped from the massage tables.-

Shinagawa:

When Rin hangs up his gaze turns steely, " You up for a fight, otouto? The girls are in trouble. Fair warning they went to that new gym that opened up in Minato, it's a trap, and they escaped from the massage tables. Bring your full healing kit, Naru's been hurt. "

Yukio races back to True Cross Academy for his stuff before following his brother to their girls. Yukio blinks as he replays that thought, when the hell had Naru become his anyhow?

Juuban:

Usagi winces as it's getting harder for her to keep the barrier up, " Naru-chan, can you fight? "

" Iie, hime. " Naru replies, her senshi healing was all that was keeping her alive and conscious at the moment.

The barrier flickers before Usagi strengthens it once more, begging Rin to hurry. If she'd tap into her powers as the hime she could hold the barrier longer but that would negate her laying low. Dealing with this stuff as a demon huntress until she could remaster the Phase Dial. Naru could see her best friend pumping her own life force into holding the barrier until it's blasted open. Usagi manages to brace herself and stand in front of Naru. Jadeite smirks, " Not so high and mighty now, are you? "

Usagi glares at him, " Last I checked you generally used big blasts of power to compensate for something else, Jeddy. "

Jadeite grabs onto her throat and slams her back first into a wall, " I am going to enjoy putting you in your place, wench. "

Jadeite had placed himself so she couldn't even ram her knee into his manhood, the wuss. Usagi had barely managed to get a hand in between his and her throat. That was all that was keeping her conscious, She was able to keep just enough pressure off that she could still breathe properly. Her sapphire eyes widen when Jadeite removes the towel, Naru's protective amulet, given to her by Yukio was keeping her safe for the moment. Jadeite smirks as he takes in the teenaged female body unveiled before him, " Perhaps I'll sample the goods before I deliver you to my queen. "

Rin and Yukio have just freed the victims from their imprisonment when Rin stiffens, he lets his demonic features take over, " Keep up if you can. Some bastard is trying to have his way with my girl. "

Rin is engulfed in the blue flames of his heritage as he races through the halls, his weapon, Aohime, drawn and in his hands. Yukio was barely able to keep up with his twin, he hadn't realized just how close Rin and Usagi-san actually were. For the demon half to take over like this, Rin had demonstrated that he had perfect control over both of his sides, Usagi was practically his sister-in-law. Yukio has his guns out and ready to fire breaching the door just after Rin, he takes out the youma going after Naru before seeing to her back while Rin heads for Usagi, decking Jadeite just as his hand had reached a certain area of Usagi's anatomy that only Rin himself was allowed to touch, of the male gender anyhow, in an intimate manner, " Keep you goddamned hands off of her, bastard! "

Rin tosses his jacket to Usagi, letting her cover up somewhat. Usagi had dropped to the ground without Jadeite holding her up, eyes wide and frightened at what had nearly happened. Aohime is lit up with Rin's blue flames, the hanyou unleashes his Satan Slash upon Jadeite, forcing the Dark General back. Once Jadeite has retreated Rin looks at his twin, " Any other idiots we need to take care of? "

Yukio casts out with his senses, " No, we've cleared the building, Onii-chan. "

Rin lets his demon form drop before turning to Usagi, he hated seeing that look of fear in her beautiful sapphire eyes, " Naru, can you and Yukio go get yours and Usa-chan's stuff? I'd like to get us out of here. "

Yukio swings her up into his arms, letting her vocally guide him. Once they're out of earshot Rin isn't surprised to have his arms full of a sobbing fourteen year old. He keeps his hold on her firm but gentle. " You're safe now, Usa-chan, I've got you. "

Next time Rin saw Jadeite he was a dead man. No one touched what was his, no one. The only other time Usagi had broken down like this was when her parents locked her out in the middle of the worst thunder to hit Minato and Shinagawa in twenty years. She'd showed up at the church, his home, soaking wet, looking absolutely miserable. He'd been the only one up at the time, he'd gotten up for a drink of milk.

Flashback:

Rin pauses in his quest for some milk when he can just barely catch the scent of tears, it was overshadowed by the rain along with fear, misery, despair, and loneliness. It was rare that those particular emotive scents were mixed together. He heads to the side door before opening it to find a drenched Usagi standing there, huddled in on herself, and shivering from the chill her wet clothes had wrought upon her. He pulls her in without a second thought, drawing her to himself when he notices her flinch at the crash of thunder, " Usagi-chan, why are you out in a storm like this when it's obvious you fear them? "

Miserable sapphire eyes meets his own light blue eyes, " If I'd've had a choice I wouldn't have been, Rin. "

" Let's get you dried off. I think there might be something in the donation boxes that will fit you. " Rin murmurs, leading her off. Once he's gotten her dried off and into dry clothes, having to help her change had not been part of his plan, he makes some hot chocolate for them.

Usagi wraps her hands around her mug, staring morosely into space. Rin had taken the seat next to her, wanting to be close at hand for when she broke, and it was a matter of when not if. He just couldn't wrap his mind around parents not wanting their children, even his dad wanted him and Yukio, to the point he killed several high ranking holy men to try to save their mother, looking for someone he could possess safely. Oh, Usagi's grandmother had filled him in fully after they changed the seal on his powers and heritage.

Rin keep silent as he sips his cocoa, Usagi was finally drinking her own, her sapphire eyes telling a story all their own. It was only when her cocoa was gone that Usagi seems to come out of her haze, " They locked me out for being a waste of a daughter, doesn't matter if baa-chan named me her heiress, doesn't matter that I became a fully licensed and accredited demon huntress at the age of eight, that I do my damnedest to actually bring home good grades, I just don't meet their standards. Papa literally threw me out of the house after burning my school things. "

Rin has to clench his fists to keep his temper in check, she threw herself at him, even as she asks why she wasn't good enough for them, " It's their loss, Usagi-chan, you are a good and decent person. "

Years of misery and torment come pouring out of her in the safety of one of her truest friend's arms. Her body is wracked with silent sobs even as she clenches two fistfuls of his shirt in her hands. Rin just holds her, letting her cry it out around someone whom wouldn't berate her for being human and having all too human emotions. The hanyou just keeps her enfolded in his arms, silently promising to protect her from that day forward.

End Flashback:

Like back then he just holds her, though this time words of love, safety, and comfort are murmured in her ear. He easily catches the bag Yukio throws to him before his brother leaves the room again. Rin ignites his blue flames, keeping them at such a low heat that they wouldn't even burn before running his hand down the path Jadeite's had most likely taken along his Usa-chan's body. " He will not touch what is mine again, Usa-chan. " Rin growls this out so low not even his twin could hear him, " I will destroy him the next time I see him. "

Rin could feel the fear leaving her, he'd never touched her with his flames before, this time was different, they needed to erase that's bastard's aura from their intended mate's body. They needed to ease her fear, as Jadeite's aura fades away Usagi relaxes further, Rin sighs at this, " Usa-chan, you need to get some clothes on. While I most certainly don't mind I think my more innocent twin will. "

Usagi sighs before grabbing her bag though she gives her boyfriend a look, Rin grumbles but turns around, the only times she made him not look was when she happened to have something she liked to surprise him with under her clothes. She also puts his jacket on, her pendant hadn't been removed since Rin placed it around her neck. Rin doesn't even react when her arms wrap around him from behind, her touch was always welcomed by him. " You all right, Usa-chan? "

" I will be, eventually. Might need to steal you for a few nights though. " Usagi says.

" Staying at your grandmothers again, huh? " Rin asks her.

" Where else can I use you as a human teddy bear? Not even Mayumi-kaa-chan would allow that. " Usagi says flatly.

Rin was the one whom would write the report about this incident, stating that there had been a near sexual molestation of the Albarn Heiress. He pulls her forward and into his side, Aohime back in amulet form. Yukio keeps quiet as Rin leads the way to the Albarn family lands. Yukio wanted some answers from his twin, and going there was the only damn way he would be able to get them. Naru calls her mother to say she would be visiting Usagi's grandmother with her, all true without going into details. Once on Albarn lands Rin swings Usagi up into his arms, cradling her close, " To answer your question about those suckers I pop, they're Blood Pops made with Usa-chan's blood. They can tide me over if necessary since I need her blood once a day. "

" Wait, Blood Pops exist? " Yukio asks.

" Yeah, they do, I could take you to the local magical alley as well. " Usagi states.

" Rin, do I even want to know how you discovered a taste for blood? " Yukio asks.

Rin chuckles awkwardly, " I meant to just bite down gently enough to bruise, instead, I bit just hard enough to draw blood. We both learned something about ourselves that day, I have a thing for blood, specifically Usagi's blood, and she actually enjoys me snacking on her blood fresh from her body. That sports bottle is runically spelled to always be filled with rabbits blood too. "

" The bottle also keeps the rabbits blood at the temperature Rin prefers as well. " Usagi says.

Everyone present on the lands realized something had happened if their heiress was allowing Rin to carry her across the lands, something that had unsettled her to the point she was actually showing vulnerability. None of them batted an eye about Yukio's presence since the Albarn Clan Lands were the only safe place for the brothers to truly talk. Yukio looks at his older brother, " Blood though? "

" I was just as shocked as you were. Hell, couple weeks back I had to open up one of my veins and let Usa-chan drink my blood. I believe Umika brought the fools to you and Tou-chan that forced the issue. "

Yukio winces, even he knew how special that was for any demon or half-demon. Since Usagi hadn't partaken of his twin's blood under her own strength she was considered his intended mate, his fiancée in ningen terms. That would keep most of demon kind and the hanyous from trying to make a move on her. " You seriously have no problem with this, Usagi-san? "

" Him feeding on my blood happens to be a major turn on for me, Yukio-san. Besides, he always makes sure to heal the bites up enough so they won't cause any problems. " Usagi admits, " Takito, show Yukio and Naru around, all right. Rin and I aren't to be disturbed unless the world is ending, got it. "

" Yes, Usagi-chan. " Takito states and leads the other two off.

" My room, now. You're going to be making me forget about what nearly happened for a little while. "

Rin smirks before teleporting them away. He'd only recently mastered teleportation to the point he could carry a passenger. Time to see what she had hiding under her clothes for him. Her uniform top is literally rent in two as Rin kisses her, both sides of him in agreement, he needed her, needed to brand her as his. Rin's eyes widen when he takes in the blood red front hook bra that just barely covered what it needed to, " Dear Susanoo, are you trying to kill me, Usa-chan? "

Usagi smirks, " If this will kill you, then what happens when you unwrap the rest of the package, Rin? "

Rin shivers at the way she said his name before her skirt is rent in two as well. Seeing the matching blood red thong has him pinning her to the wall, kissing her brutally, yet his hold was kept gentle, still seeing her pinned by her throat to the wall by Jadeite. It was only when he felt her clamp down on his carotid artery that he realizes what his two sides had done. Feeling the mate bond assert itself fired his blood up even as Usagi pulls away long enough to remove his shirt. Rin regains just enough of his senses to realize that their first time was not going to be against a kami damned wall. He takes them over to her bed before losing himself in her and his instincts.

North Pole Point D:

Jadeite shudders as he remembers the look upon the hanyou's face. Apparently the Moon Princess was his. If there was one thing he had learned in his last life, you did not mess with a youkai or hanyou's other half. It was a very quick way to ensure your demise. He had barely escaped with his life this time, he had no doubt that should he run into that particular hanyou again he would be dead. Time to use proxies for a while, though not even he was stupid enough to out the princess. She'd make his life a living hell through trolling him.

Vatican:

Several screams of horror are heard throughout the holy place as several rooms are filled with wall to wall snakes, along with a mock-up of the scene where the snake tricks Eve. Some scenes however depict Eve and the snake doing immoral things together. There was no sign as to whom had done this, and the snakes were real as well. All they knew was the fact that their holy place had been blasphemed against, and whomever had done so would pay for it with their lives.

Plane Enroute to Tokyo:

Soul curses under his breath, he had missed the opening act, dammit. Here was hoping he'd arrive to see the rest of the show and maybe help out too. His inner troll was demanding to be entertained, in the only way for a true troll to be entertained, screwing around with the lives of others. Hmm, maybe he could play with Ikuko, Kenji, and Shingo since they treated his other meister like dirt. Soul cackles softly at the mere thought which causes his future victims to all shudder in horror as a feeling of ALL ENCOMPASSING DOOM washes over them.

Time Gates:

Pluto stares in horror as Crystal Tokyo fades out of existence entirely before the future is blocked off to her. What the hell had just happened? It wasn't like the hime would get together with someone other than Endymion-sama, right? Little did she know that at that very moment her hime and her half-demon mate were finally consummating their relationship, making them married according to demonic and ancient terms. Current mortal ningen laws had yet to be met however since Rin did happen to be half human as well.

Divine Realms:

Susanoo starts cackling as the ripples of Rin and Usagi consummating their relationship spread out. Fate and that dried up prune Bitchenity had to be throwing massive bitch fits at the moment. Now he knew why Zelretch had so much fun interfering in things. Seeing the reactions to his simple little nudge was hilarious.
