Did you all enjoy the first episode the Nurarihyon anime, season two? Because I didn't watch it yet xD

Well enjoy this too!


"Fufufu~ Rikuo take a picture!" Tsurara swung her arm over an ancient statue.

"Hey don't touch that, it could break!" Yura called out to her.

"Ahhh, sorry no film today Tsurara!" Rikuo smiled at her nervously.

Tsurara danced up to him and held his hand and had a determined look on her face. "Let's go explore Kyoto! Get a camera while we're at it."

Yura smiled to herself. Finally, they're gone. Maybe the Keikain house can maintain its peace and quiet.

Tsurara blew out a large ice boulder onto the floor. "Yura~! We decided on a spot to sleep tonight!" She pointed to the boulder.

Yura began to scold Tsurara. "Hey don't go deciding things by yourself you know! This place is my -"

Rikuo reached in his robe pocket and pull out a small pole and stabbed it into the ice boulder. "Okay, we'll call this area Camp Nura!"

"Why are you also accepting this place as a free hotel? Honestly, Rikuo Nura I thought you would be the mature adult out of you two!" Yura started to scold Rikuo too.

Rikuo kept moving his eyes everywhere in order to not make eye contact. "Really? I was the one who suggested it."

Rikuo grabbed Tsurara's hand and began to skip happily out of the house to explore Kyoto.

Oh my god…this is going to be a disaster. Yura's eye began to twitch.


In Ukiyoe Town it was bright and sunny. The sun was shining down, absolutely no clouds in the sky to block its rays.

"Ugh what is this smell…" Kiyoshi sat on a hill under a tree and pinched his nose.

"You smell it too? The smell of Youkai that do not belong on the Nura clan turf." Ryuuji glared at Kiyoshi. "I think…there's more to this problem then Rikuo Nurarihyon thinks."

Ryuuji looked behind and whistled to Kiyoshi. Kiyoshi took out one of his cards out of his onmyouji robe and sliced at the rotting smell that grew closer. A decayed rotting human flesh fell on the floor and stopped moving.

"God, this Youkai smells horrible!" Kiyoshi felt like he was going to puke. "Never even heard about this Youkai in my life."

"Quiet Kiyoshi. It seems like we're surrounded." Ryuuji warned him.

More slow, sloppy moving decaying human-like creatures began to walk over, their backs all hunched.

Ryuuji put two fingers together, "Gengen," then put them down, "Actually this is supposed to be your mission." He stared at Kiyoshi, "Take care of them, there appears to be at least twenty of them."

"Heh, don't worry, I'll take them down with ease." Kiyoshi grinned.

Kiyoshi confidently held a card up in his right hand in between his middle and index finger and swiped at one of the decaying Youkai. The Youkai wobbled but continued walking.

"All I need, is one card to take you guys all down." Kiyoshi grinned and continued to focus on the one Youkai who would not just fall down. "W-what the hell is this?"

"Kiyoshi, behind you." Ryuuji pointed out to the 19 other youkai nearing him.

Kiyoshi's eyes opened widely but he kept hacking and slashing at the decaying youkai with his one card.

"Why isn't it working?" Kiyoshi screamed out loud.

The decaying monsters all surrounded him, they didn't try to bruise him, instead they all wrapped their arms around his body, and Kiyoshi threw his arm up in the air as if to ask for help.

"You guys…" Ryuuji grinned.

Kiyoshi jumped out of the tree that he was hiding in that was on top of the hill. "Fell for it!"

Kiyoshi took out a bunch of cards and threw them into the Youkai. All of the cards hit perfectly and they all just fell straight down without hesitation.

"Heh, an onmyouji that creates a clone of myself and acts like he's powerless? The perfectly Shikigami for a trickster." Kiyoshi smirked as he stared at the monsters. "Wait, Ryuuji what type of youkai is this though?"

"To be honest, this is my first time seeing something like this. But the way they look, they look like as if they were real humans before they became youkai." Ryuuji answered him. "Well, that was a nice warm up to knowing what we're up against. Now let's get to our place we will be staying at. You have a new school to attend, right?"

"Yeah, well the place better not be rundown!" It was all that Kiyoshi cared about.

Ryuuji lead him to a tiny motel. "Ah, only for about 3 days maybe." He told the manager.

"Only 3 days? Do you believe in my strength?" Kiyoshi laughed confidently.

"Ah…um…of course! You're my student after all." Ryuuji gave him a lazy pissed off stare. "Don't snore! I hate it when you snore in your sleep!"


"Hey hey, what's with those two?" A lady whispered to her friend.

"I don't know, they seem to be tourist, and are really excited to be in Kyoto at that."

Tsurara and Rikuo were jumping all around the streets, posing at every single shop they walked by and taking pictures.

"Tsurara, we bought so much stuff on our first day." Rikuo smiled at her.

Rikuo was carrying five bags in each hand and had two around his neck.

"Yeah I know! But half of that stuff is for rearranging our room in Hotel Keikain~" Tsurara sang.

"Well, we do want our room to be nice while we stay there…We'll be here for at least a month, maybe longer if it's fun here." Rikuo laughed with Tsurara.


Yura smacked both Rikuo and Tsurara with a fan, on their heads. "A MONTH? You GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!" Yura shook her head furiously.

"Calm down Yura. We're friends aren't we? Listen to your friends!" Rikuo tried to make her relax.

"Then please listen to me when I say that you two should leave." Yura lightly banged her head against the wall.

"Ah…Rikuo! This statue is heavy, help me move it…it's also ugly, maybe we should throw it out?" Tsurara suggested.

"ARE YOU LISTENING TO THE HOTEL MANAGER AT ALL?" Yura yelled at them.

"Oh, you're right, Yura we need help over here." Rikuo tried calling her over.

Yura sighed helplessly and felt a sense of defeat, she threw her head down in shame as she began heading towards them. "Ignoring me huh…?"

The three began to lift up the statue and Tsurara was taking deep breaths, struggling to carry the statue. Yura felt her cold breath and sneezed, dropping the statue.

"Oh…it broke…" Tsurara sounded a bit sad. "Fufu~ sorry Yura~!"

"Heheheh…" A month huh? Yura slouched lazily against a wall and fell down on the floor.


"I know this is quite soon, but we already have another new student!" The teacher announced to the class.

"Hey! Isn't he the one from that Youkai news show that aired a few weeks ago?"

"You are right, he is the same one!"

"The kid onmyouji right?"

"Now if another Youkai group appears we know who to count on!"

Misaki walked to Ren's desk and massaged her shoulders. "Don't worry, he won't steal your spotlight!"

"I'm Kiyoshi Keikain. Please to meet you all!"

"Hey, Rio…that guy is an onmyouji! His last name is Keikain! Hide yourself well Rio." Toru whispered to him.

Hmmm? Kiyoshi stared at Rio's corner. Youkai? Blending in with students?

"Ah…he's looking this way!" Misaki said to Toru nervously.

"So, Kiyoshi…we have one empty seat near the back. Right beside Ren." The teacher pointed to the empty seat.

"Ah, thank you for telling me sensei." Perfect, exactly the ideal seat. Kiyoshi smirked to himself and sat down at his seat.

"Ren, since you were the previous new student, I hope you don't mind showing Kiyoshi around?" The teacher suggested.

Ren just nodded her head and turned toward Kiyoshi. "H-h-hello~"

Kiyoshi went and hugged her tightly in front of the class, his hand grabbing the back of her head. The class squealed loudly.

"Love at first sight for Kiyoshi?"

"Nice seating Sensei!"

"Hey, don't do something out of the blue!" Toru objected.

"K-Kiyoshi! W-what are y-ou?" Ren acted nervous, but her skin didn't turn to a shade of blush.

Kiyoshi slid a card out from the hand grabbing the back of her head, and she felt the card immediately. Kiyoshi whispered in her ear, "Cut the act, will ya? You damn Youkai."
