I don't own Rosario + Vampire, this is a fanfiction only.
As our classes ended and we had a free period that day, we decided to go on a walk to talk about what had changed in our lives since we were together as kids. I always felt for some strange reason that a walk in this graveyard looking landscape was actually quite relaxing.
I must be the only person I know that walking through this place would feel relaxed and calm, then again so far until a few days ago I only had the human perspective. Dad didn't say anything about this last time I talked with him, for some reason dad was more concerned with my combat training than how I felt in my school's surroundings.
"So Moka how is your sister doing? Is she still bugging you about sparring with her?" She laughed as I said that, and she was quick to remind me that she had more than one sister and that I only met one.
"Yes, she keeps trying to take my rosary off for some reason. She never manages it but that has never stopped her from trying. I had to bar my bedroom door to prevent her from keep trying while I was asleep. So tell me Tsuki how has your life changed since we last me?"
I couldn't help to think how much my life had changed since those innocent days, "Well for one I found out my true nature, and my true form thanks to you. I found my father has been sealed for I don't know how long, and the people I considered my parents were actually my guardians."
We both began sharing some of our most embarrassing incidents we had with our relatives since we last were together, and even I had to admit even though I found this kind, sweet, and gentle Moka strange it did remind me quite a bit of my childhood friend.
It was until we walked over to the cliff that the person I been sensing following us decided to launch his ambush. It was the jerk that punched me and was flirting with Moka back when we were having that drink together.
"Took you long enough to launch your ambush Saizou. I was worried that you might have lost your nerve. What is the matter afraid? Because you should be." Saizou looked at me like I was an insect and it was easy for me to tell from his body language alone, guess dad's training was good after all.
"You may try to act tough, but guess what, we are outside the school grounds which means I don't have to hide my true form anymore. You look as weak as a human, once I beat you to a pulp Moka will see she is better off dating me, instead of a weakling like you."
I had enough of his flirting, and without even thinking of it I took off my bracelet. The energy began to course right through me and I felt an incredible sense of relief as my power slowly returned to normal. I stopped pretending to be weak and glared at him with the full intent of making this fool suffer.
"Those eyes, that hair, those fangs, those wings, this has to be an illusion, an absolute lie! There was only supposed to be one Vampire in our class and that is supposed to be Moka! How the hell can you a weakling be a human! I don't believe it, it is impossible!"
The idiot tried to tackle me but to me, he was walking at such a slow pace I evaded his attack and kicked him hard enough to send him flying into a dead tree trunk. Moka walked over to me and held my arm as I walked over to where Saizou had landed.
"Please Tsuki, he doesn't mean any harm. Show some mercy, please." Saizou was not as smart as he seemed, he took a piece of the trunk and threw it at me, causing me to stumble as I evaded it, the unintended consequence is I unintentionally grabbed her rosary and it came off.
As the rosary came off her chest, the sweet and innocent looking Moka banished, and in its place was the Moka I once knew, except if the other side of Moka was beautiful, this one was smoking hot. She seemed to like the fact that I actually found her attractive.
"Nice to see you again Tsuki, it's so nice to wake up and find the man I love there as I awake. Don't mind the plea of the other me, go ahead and teach this mongrel his place. We can have our romantic reunion as soon as you get done dealing with this piece of garbage."
As I walked towards Saizou I remembered the words that Moka said to me before her apparent transformation. I walked over to Saizou and he was trying hard to get up but something was making his knees buckle and legs shake so much he kept falling down.
I grabbed him by the neck, "Look Saizou chances are we are going to be in the same classroom for years to come, so I will make it so simple even you will understand it. You will not bother me and Moka ever again, should you ever again try to force yourself on Moka, or insult her and I will know, the only way your parents will ever be grandparents is for you to adopt. Am I making myself clear?"
I let him go and he nodded his head as soon as he was standing, I leaned in closer and looked at him directly to his eyes, his face lost all color for a moment. "Now if you or anyone you ask ever try to kill Moka, there will be no place on this or any other dimension where you will be able to hide from me. I will hunt you and I will end your life."
He looked at me and then at Moka, "Now as you heard I have little time for my reunion so beat it before I change my mind and kill you now!" I never thought an Orc could run that fast. He turned around and ran away from us, crying while he ran.
"Now I guess I should explain Tsukune, the Rosary my father gave me not only blocks my power and aura, it sort of makes me into what you saw before. It was supposed to help me avoid suspicion, and get along with humans while I attended human schools."
She looked at me and placed her hand on her hip, "The other my father calls an illusion, and if he is right, then this is the real me. Sorry that I was so distant with you Tsuki when we were kids, but dad raised us on horror stories about the Shinso Vampires. Now that you told me he married your sister, it sort of doesn't make any sense to me."
I knew there was only one thing I wanted to do, and I decided to do it before I got cold feet. I walked over to her and placed my arms around her waist, pulling her close to me and give her a tight hug. "It's nice to meet you again, Moka. Welcome back, I really missed you."
I did say the Moka I knew very direct didn't I? Why am I asking? Well, as soon as let go of her she pulled me back and placed both hands on my face and kissed me. "I missed you too Tsuki. Thank you for defending me, you didn't need to but it still made me feel very happy."
I felt her place the bracelet back on and my power grows weaker, I felt my body shift and I looked at my body as I looked down and knew that I was once again in human form, for a brief second I held onto the rosary and the idea of crushing it came to my mind, but I would never take that decision away from Moka.
I placed the rosary back on and I guess she went through the same change I did, except the pink haired friendly, sweet and shy Moka was back. At least she was those things usually but for some reason, she was actually upset. "Moka am I wrong or are you upset about something?"
I don't care what people say but her with her cheeks looking like that did look cute. "Of course I am upset! My rosary came off, and what ends up happening? Inner me gets your first kiss! I am feeling so jealous right now I could scream!"
"Sorry Moka, I was caught by surprise, and I was really happy to see the person I grew up with. I mean you didn't wear that rosary when you were a kid. I still don't know why you wear that thing? You never had to wear one when we were in elementary school."
She looked at me and looked at the large whole Saizou basically crawled out off and ran away like the grim reaper was hot on his heels. "Well isn't the pot calling the kettle black. I don't remember you being that brutal, and you wore that bracelet since before I even met you. Come on Tsuki, you never beat anyone like that before, and we both know there have been plenty of people back then who deserved it!"
I was feeling really ashamed as she finished telling me that, I kept looking at the ground. "Well, I never manage to get this thing off before. The first time that came off was when you bumped into me. Dad says that I really need to learn to control my impulses better, but I am really hungry sometimes."
"I can't help it if I want to eat something tasty every once in a while. Let's face it if it wasn't because of that tradition, I would have asked to drink your blood. Drinking your blood without even asking permission? That is something I am not willing to do. I respect you too much to force myself on you."
She looked at me and had this confused look on her face, "What tradition are you talking about Tsuki?" You have got to be kidding me, she was never taught that traditional rule? What in the hell was his father thinking!
I came closer to her and placed my hand on her shoulder, I guess I was just feeling really sorry for her, and a lot of sympathies. "Moka if vampires drink blood from each other the act is something that is called a blood union. In other words Moka, the two vampires become husband and wife, it's a traditional form of marriage Moka."
"So if you drink my blood and I drink yours, we become husband and wife? Don't you have to marry in a church or with the justice of the peace?"
I can't believe I am having this conversation with her, please god tell me her father explained where little vampires come from, cause I don't want to have to give her the lecture about bats and the wolves, please don't have me do that until after my kids if I have any grow to be of age.
"Moka vampires were hunted and killed by most churches, we had to attend church service in secret for hundreds of years, or worship while in hiding. Most civil authorities would love to see a vampire and our kin killed since they could take all that family's properties. We had to overcome a lot of horrible things in the past, so we should really be grateful for a place like this Academy."
We both decided to walk back to the school, and for some odd reason, she was holding my arm close to her body a lot closer than she used to. That night I met my dad and boy was he even more brutal than before.
"Dad, did I do something to upset you? Or do you think something bad is about to happen to me or someone we both know?" He looked at me and threw a shinai my way, I caught it.
"Me upset, nonsense, what could I possibly be upset about? It's not like you basically proposed to marry you own niece without asking me first now is it?" That was the first time I wondered about something, how in the world my dad know so much about my life if he was constantly sealed and watched?
"I didn't propose to anyone, and No I didn't ask Moka to marry me. I respect our traditions even if I just learned a little while ago. I just explained Moka the ancient tradition about vampires drinking each other's blood. Can you believe her father never explain any of that to her?"
Dad seems to relax somewhat as we began practicing our family style of swordsmanship. "Well that makes me feel better, I was afraid that you abandon our kind's traditions like your sister did. So tell me, son, why did you have to take off your bracelet? You could have easily taken care of that punk with it on."
I kept blocking his strikes, I just couldn't find an opening for me to counter attack, my dad was just that good. "I will say it again, I respect of kind's traditions. You know full well if an enemy fights you without holding back, I must do the same as a show of respect."
He hit my practice sword extra hard and broke it. "Good answer son, now go to sleep. I will see you again another time. Before you go to sleep know that I am always aware of what happens to you, you are my only son. I guess your old man does tend to worry about you."
