Author's Note:
Hey all. I hope you enjoyed what I've written so far. I've come up with a few ideas for a title, but none of them really hit that "spot". Anywho, I actually wrote this several hours after I wrote Chapter One, because I'm in such a crappy mood! My mood often changes my writing style. See if you can tell. Cheers! Also, if you don't happen to like my writing at the moment, you can always check out my friends. She writes much better than me. ^^'' Check out Suwako. Also, R&R! Thanks (:

Chapter 2: Revelations
Class ended. As Rin got up to leave the room, I quickly trailed behind him, but she wasalready on her way. We looked at each other. Sparks lit up across the room and I felt the need to kill her, but I contained myself. She glared at me with her hazy, purple eyes, they looked like such a mystery, I wondered about her past. I looked back at the door, and Rin was gone. I motioned for the girl to follow me outside, to talk.
"What the hell is your problem?" I spat.
"Just about to ask you the same thing."
"That doesn't answer me."
"Well then, maybe this will;"
She threw a punch at me, I struggled to catch it. She was quick for a human. She chuckled and said
"Having trouble?"
I quickly blazed out of control, flames engulfed me, my bow grew out of my hand, and as I leaped in the air, the heels of my feet sprouted blades; I was being caressed and lifted by the air like a graceful nymph. She stared wide-eyed as the tables were turned. She stopped and said
"You…. Satan…."
I closed my eyes and was enjoying myself, when I opened them; she was gone from the ground. Quickly, I scouted the ground and found her nowhere.
"Up here."
I looked to my far right and gasped. She was in flames too. She was the third tie. Holding a large scythe, she came over to me. We stood erect and tall. I reacted fast. I kicked up my foot and notched some of her flesh off her right cheek. She was faster.

Her scythe swiped my feet and knocked off one of my toes as I leaped in the air. Gasping in pain, I drew my bow, and shot an arrow square in her chest. Trying to evade it, she ducked, and it hit her left shoulder. We danced around the sky, creating scarlet streaks of blood in the sky. It was like a fireworks show. After several minutes, our body parts were littered on the floor. I was missing an arm, her, a leg. We drifted in front of each other; a sign of peace.
My bow to my side, her scythe to hers, we stared at each other intensely and our facial expressions softened. I looked at her, and held out my hand.
"Screw that." She said.
She enveloped me in a hug, our flames mingled, and together they became a brilliant blue, streaked with purple. We extinguished our flames and started to mingle.
"You go grab my toes and arm. I'll get your leg and shoulder meat." I told her.
"How do you get your weapon?" She responded.
"Mine's in a charm. Yours was interesting. I couldn't tell."
"Well, it kind of grew out of my palm and attached itself to my elbow area."
"Kind of? Well, I love the colour of your flames!"
"You fight well!"
"Hah, so do you. First time I've ever had to re-attach my limbs."
"Well, now let's find that kid Rin. He's the second Demon-Child."
"I don't think he's a kid. Manly, almost."
"Ahahaha, well he's ALL yours." I smiled. "I'm Akahana, you?"
"Kuromu Scarlet. You have no last name?"
"Nah."
Together, we walked back to the dorms.
