"SHE WHAT?!" exclaimed Rin after hearing what his brother suggested for Kuro.

"That she becomes an student at the EXWires class." Yukio repeated.

"Have you lost it?!"

"What do you mean, nya~?" Asked Kuro with a cute look.

"Everyone will know you're a demon cause of those!" cried out Rin pointing to her ears and tails.

"So what? I don't care what they think as long as I'm with master nya~!" Declared Kuro determined.

"Other exorcists might attack you!" he retorted.

"Then I'll beat them up! Especially if they dare harm you, Master Nya~!" Kuro said back.

Rin sighed while Yukio handed him the form, which showed she was officially a student. "There's really no way around this, huh?" Rin sighed in resignation.

"Nope." spoke Yukio as Kuro hugged Rin from the side.

"But still, I'm so happy Nya~!" Spoke Kuro happily as Rin blushed.

"Well it's getting close to class time, so I'd get ready you two." smiled Yukio at seeing his brother get embarrassed.

"Yeah yeah, just don't get your panties in a bunch." Mumbled Rin as Yukio now glared at him and Kuro laughed at that.

Rin headed to class with Kuro hugging him while her ears and tails twitched in joy. While one part of him was glad that a cute and attractive girl was with him like that, the other part was worried about everyone's reactions to her.

He reached the class as Kuro hadn't loosened her grip on him. That made Rin sigh in relief.

He turned the knob and walked in with Kuro right beside him. There they saw the rest of the students seated down.

Shima though was quick to notice the girl on Rin's side. "Hey Rin, who's the cutie?" He asked as he looked at Kuro.

"Uh, oh. Well..." Rin hadn't come up with an answer since he was trying to process the fact his own familiar would be attending class with him.

But before Rin could answer, Kuro said something that would unleash chaos to everyone;

"I'm my master's mate!" smiled the girl.

"Wait WHAT-?!" Gasped Rin as he blushed.

That got everyone's attention.

"What did that girl just said?" Izumo asked curious.

"Uh, nothing?" tried Rin.

"I said I was my master's mate nya~!" Said Kuro, unaware of the chaos that would be unleashed.

"Master?" spoke Shiemi in confusion.

"M-Mate?!" Izumo gasped with a blush.

Bon just blinked twice.

Konekomaru had his jaw open slightly.

Shima stared in disbelief before he banged his head on the ground in denial.

That's when Yukio walked in without noticing Rin and Kuro. "Hello there class!" He said cheerfully until noticing everyone's expressions. "Did something happen here?"

"Uh, who's the new girl?" Bon managed to get out.

"She's Kuro, Rin's familiar that won a human form due to an accident." Yukio answered.

That made everyone really stare at the two of them in shock.

"Wait! Wasn't Kuro a m-male?!" Shiemi asked with an embarrassed look.

"Turns out Kuro was a girl." spoke Yukio.

That caused looks of disbelief to be sent towards Rin, who nodded embarrassed.

"So, she use to be a cat?" asked Shima.

"How did she become a human?" Asked Bon serious.

"A random amulet."

"Which kind of amulet?" Izumo asked curious.

"Something that belongs to Mephisto."

Bon shut up then upon hearing that since even he didn't want to question the director of the academy...despite how weird he was.

"Okay, let's focus since class started." spoke Yukio.

Everyone did as told as they went to their seats except Kuro, who looked around confused yet curious.

"Kuro, you can sit beside Rin." spoke Yukio seeing her confused look.

Kuro then nodded happily and did as told. Rin blushed as she didn't hesitate to rest her head on his shoulder. That got everyone to stare at them as Yukio chuckled in amusement.

What the class failed to notice was the bird plushie on one of the shelfs with a blinking red eye.

(Mephisto's Office)

"This is getting good." grinned Mephisto watching the video feed.

A certain mouse on his shoulder nodded as well.

(Classroom)

Back in the class, Yukio started writing the lesson on the board while Rin noticed Kuro's head left his shoulder. Then he looked down and almost had a heart attack upon seeing her head on his legs!

Shima noticed and cried tears of sadness. Why couldn't he be that lucky?

Izumo and Shiemi could only look in embarrassment at the scene.

Bon tried to stay focused while trying to ignore the scene. Konekomaru was doing the same thing as Bon.

Yukio though wanted to make sure everyone was focusing and walked over to the sleeping Kuro. He gently shook her up, but she didn't want to wake up.

'Didn't want to do this.' thought Yukio as he reached over and tugged on one of her tails. The result was Kuro waking up in panic and slashing at the one in front of her with her claws, whom happened to be Yukio!

Yukio managed to duck back as Kuro glared with her tails twitching.

"Don't. Touch. The. TAILS!" She growled darkly.

"Sorry, but since you're a student here, you need to pay attention." spoke Yukio with a professional tone.

"Mou...alright, what's the question then?" Kuro asked after recovering.

"What's the proper way to deal with being surrounded by demons?"

"Try to find a way to resolve things peacefully if they're friendly, but if there's no other option or the demon is too dangerous, then it must be taken care of." Kuro answered.

"Correct."

Kuro just smiled before resting her head on Rin's lap, much to his embarrassment.

"Uh, Kuro? How'd you know that?" asked Rin.

"I'm several decades old due to my demon blood, so obviously I would know a lot." She answered straight.

That got Rin to shut up. And so, the class continued as Kuro rested her head on Rin's legs.
