A/N: Sorry I have not updated in a while. I might have lost the last chapter…so I have decided to write it anyway! So R&R!
It had been months since any of our friends had talked to us, except for Shiemi; she would still hang around with us and talk. The others usually avoided us or if I was alone would come and call me a demon lover, a constant reminder of Jet.
I was lost in my thoughts as I was walking over to professor Okumura's office, having been summoned. If they knew about Shion would they act the same way even if he wasn't the son of Satan? I strode into the room and looked around surprised. Everyone was there, Rin and Shiemi sitting on one side of the room, everyone else on the other. I walked over to Rin feeling nervous, he noticed and wrapped an arm around my waist holding me close. Soon his twin brother walked into the room. He stood behind a desk looking more than a little uncomfortable.
"There have been reports of a 'haunted mansion' which we know to hold a large clan of various lower level demons. Since there is a large number of them we are sending ALL of you. No arguments now go."
With that he walked back out the door he had come in by leaving the group of stunned students to watch him leave. They all looked worriedly around before they left to accomplish the mission as quickly as possible. I watched everyone carefully, seeing fear, anger and confusion written over most of their faces. A let out a soft sigh, this was going to be a long mission.
"Be quiet demon lover!"
I felt Rin tense up beside me so I placed a hand on his arm telling him it was alright and I didn't mind the name so much. I knew it was a lie but walking through the mansion we couldn't afford for Suguro and Rin to get into a giant fight. I stared up at the numerous portraits on the peeling wall. This mansion was old, incredibly old. We were in a long halfway with windows all along one side; if you looked out of it you could see a large lake and a beautiful grassy field. I longed for the fresh air instead of the musty feel of the air inside the mansion.
Suddenly the familiars became uneasy, Cocoa almost whining beside me. Suddenly the windows broke as a tidal wave rolled through. The familiars vanished as their summoning papers were soaked. The group was slammed against the wall. Cautiously I got to my feet, only to be slammed across the room. My shirt ripped slightly across my side revealing a cut, warm blood dripping from it. I spun quickly facing the seaweed monster. It swayed crazily hitting the walls with its slimy tentacles. Other demons soon joined it attacking the others. A familiar voice was clearly audible over the noise of the room.
"We meet again young prince."
I turned away from the seaweed creature to face Jet. Bad move, the monster grabbed my foot and yanked me up. I fell hitting my head then was raised hanging upside down facing the monster. I grabbed my staff as it fell from its pouch feeling the metal expand. I sliced up breaking the grip the monster had on me then quickly flipping to land on my feet. I barely noticed the sounds of the others fighting around me as I dodged each attack that came at me until an all too familiar voice rang through the hallway. I turned swiftly to see Rin, face first on the floor. His flames were gone and he was bleeding from multiple wounds over his body. A shrieked in fear as I took in Jet, a few feet away a ball of power being created in his hands. I ran forward blindly falling in front of Rin. A burning feeling ran through my body. I screamed, the pain was unbearable but it soon died down. Everything around us was quiet; I could feel the blood leaving my body from multiple injuries. Tears fell down my cheeks stingy in the cuts that were there.
"What did I say the last time we met? You would get burned."
Rin had come to kneel beside me. His breathing came in small gasps and he was shaking with the effort of staying raised on his knee. He wiped a tear away from my cheek and pulled me behind him. I weakly raised my head to see Jet preparing to launch another attack. I clung to Rin, wishing I could say goodbye too Shion, hug my mom one last time… I could hear Jet laughing maniacally as he let it loose. Rin hugged me close as he braced himself but no pain came. We looked up to find all of our friends in front of us. Most were chanting which had made the attack disappear. We stared up shocked at the group. Suguro turned his head slightly to face us, he was frowning.
"Did you think we were just going to let you die? Even though I thought you were the enemy I noticed that I had been wrong when you saved us from that attack just then and now you were prepared to die for Liz."
I faced Rin, he was smiling slightly. When had he saved them? What attack? What was going on? I didn't have time to voice my thoughts before Rin rose slightly. His wounds were starting to heal already as he drew his sword flames returning. I tried to stand only to fall to my knees again. Damn demon blood. Rin stood almost calm in front of Jet.
"You threatened the life of my friends and those I care about, do you think I would just let you get away fish boy?"
With that he charged Jet. Jet stared completely dumbfounded as he watched him come closer. He barely put up his hands in defence as Rin attacked. His efforts were for nothing as Rin's sword sliced through him. He soon disappeared in a puff of smoke; the other demons soon following by escaping threw the broken window. Rin steadily walked towards me and held me in his arms. Carrying me bridal style I could see Shiemi was also hurt along with Shima and Konekomaru. I winced as Rin jumped through the window causing slight pain to run through me. He apologized and continued walking. I soon couldn't fight the sleep that overcame me as I fainted.
"Mommy, will she be okay? She's been sleeping for a long time even though she's all better and not bleeding."
I opened my eyes carefully, blinking at the blinding lights above me. I turned to face two familiar faces. I smiled and sat up in bed, my arms were bandaged along with my head, although the bandages were clean and I could not see any blood stains on them. Shion jumped into my arms and my mom sat beside me pulling me into a warm hug and kissing my head. A creaking sound made me turn my attention to the door of the infirmary. Rin walked through it was Suguro and Izumo. I turned and saw Shima, Shiemi and Konekomaru lying in cots next to mine. The others smiled at me then continued to their friends. Rin came and sat next to me, I rested my head on his shoulder happy that everyone was safe and getting along. I was content to stay there forever if I could.
"Hey Rin."
"Mmm yeah?"
"Thanks for everything."
He hugged me closer and kissed the top of my head lightly. I snuggled closer watching as Shion played with Nee making everyone laugh. This was going to be a good year, I could feel it.
A/N: Okay! So it's finally finished! I hope everyone enjoyed the ending and I didn't leave anyone with any questions. Thanks and please R&R!
