I do not own Blue Exorcist.

The Naberius roared a screeching roar, and slowly headed towards Izumo. She looked petrified. She was so scared she couldn't move. I called out her name, but still no movement. The Naberius was standing right in front of her. A small tear fell down her cheek. I clenched my fists, and ran towards her. There's no way I'm letting any friends die today. The demon raised one of its hands, looking like it was about to slam it down onto her. I grabbed Izumo, and pulled her away just in time, for the demon slammed down onto the roof, intending to hit her.

"All of you get out of here!" I yelled, grabbing my sword.

"Me and Rin will handle this!" shouted Yukio, running up behind me.

I looked at Yukio. He gave me a reassuring nod. He trusts me, and I trust him. I saw the gang, standing still. What the hell are they doing? The demon started to charge at Yukio, but he shot at it, causing to blind it temporarily.

"Leave! Now!" I yelled, pulling my sword out of its cover.

Once again, the flames covered my body. The warmth was so familiar, and extreme, I felt so powerful.

"Don't piss me off Okumura! I told you before, we've got your back!" shouted Bon, not budging.

I looked at Shiemi, who nodded in agreement with Bon. Dammit, looks like there's no persuading them.

I lunged at the now healed Naberius, cutting it in half. It fell to the ground, Limp and motionless.

"Looks like there's no need for your help," I said, smug.

"Its not over yet, Rin," said Yukio, reloading his gun.

I looked back at the half's of the Naberius. Slowly, they started to move. I was utterly shocked. What the hell? I killed it! Both half's stood up, fully able to fight. How? Why is this thing attacking us again?

"I'll take the one on the right," said Yukio, running forward towards it.

He shot multiple bullets at it, causing the halved demon to roar in pain. Whoa, he's awesome! I heard another roar coming from the left. I drew my attention to the other, more violent looking half. It ran towards me, about to strike. I smirked, and ran toward it. I'm going to kill this thing once and for all. I jumped up into the air, and plunged my sword right into his skull. Just like before, he exploded, but not as viciously as last time. I looked to my left, and saw the Yukio had already killed the other one, without getting burned by the blood.

"You'll need to get those burns treated soon, Rin," said Yukio, smirking.

"Whatever four eyes," I said, in pain.

Shiemi came running up to me with Aloe, and treated my injuries again. Yukio stood there, looking like he was solving a rubix cube with his mind. The others came walking over, congratulating Yukio and me for killing those things. Well, all except Izumo. She was still sat on the ground, looking horrified. I should probably go other there and comfort her, but I can't exactly move right now, not while Shiemi's bandaging me.

"What you thinking?" I asked Yukio, who still looked puzzled.

"About the tamer," started Yukio, pushing up his glasses. "Mr Neuhaus is in prison right now, meaning it is impossible for him to have done it."

"But then-"

"Who did it?" said Yukio and me in unison.

"The tamer would probably want to see how the fight went, so that means that they are probably near by," said Yukio, pacing back and forth. "For all we know, they could be in this building at this very moment."

"Me and Shima will go and look for the summoning circle in the building, you guys stay up here and heal up," said Bon, running off followed by Shima.

"Be careful!" shouted Shiemi.

"Why the hell would someone do this?" I asked myself, slamming my fist down onto the roof.

"We'll find out soon enough," said Shiemi, placing her hand on top of mine.

"Soon enough isn't soon enough!" I shouted, swatting her hand away.

Shiemi looked hurt and sad. She turned away from me, and started walking towards Izumo. I sighed. I guess should apologize to her. I stood up, and followed her to Izumo.

"Izumo? Are you okay?" asked Shiemi, leaning down beside her.

"I…I've never be so scared in my life," stuttered Izumo, not making eye contact.

"Um… do you want a hug?" asked Shiemi, holding out her arms.

"No I don't want a fucking hug!" shouted Izumo.

"Hey! Shiemi was only asking! She was being kind!" I yelled back.

"It's okay Rin, she's just scared," said Shiemi.

Izumo, scowled at her, then looked away. Weird, Izumo isn't one to be scared.

"We should go and follow Shima and Bon, help them look for it," said Izumo, standing up.

"No need, I've found it," said Yukio.

I ran up to where he was, which was at the edge of the roof, and looked down. On the ground, was the circle. Some of the blood that had been dropped on it was still there, visible to see.

"Le's head down there, Izumo, go and find Shima and Bon," said Yukio, heading down, off of the roof.

Shiemi and me followed Yukio, through the doors, down the stairs, around the corners, and out the back of the temple. Slowly, we approached the circle. Lots of blood had been shed onto it. That must be why it's so powerful. I watched Yukio take a step closer to get a better look. He leaned down, analysing it.

"Anything that could tell us who did this?" I asked.

"Well, there is the blood, but we can't go around asking for a blood sample from every tamer, that would take years, but it can identify if Mr Neuhaus is truly innocent or not," said Yukio, still crouching.

"Anything else worth noting?" asked Shiemi, taking a step forward.

"The pattern that was used for the circle is rather unusual. Most summoning circles have the same pattern, and those that don't are still known well. I've never seen this pattern before," he said, just as confused as I am. "Why would they put it right here? It was obvious that it would be found…"

He trailed off, thinking. We waited for him to continue. Suddenly, He stood up and turned to us, looking concerned.

"The tamer that did this wanted us to find it," explained Yukio.

"What?" said Shima, running up behind us.

"Whoa," said Bon, staring at the circle.

"Find anything interesting," said Izumo, back to her normal self.

Yukio explained to them what he had just told Shiemi and me.

"Bon, you come from a temple, do you recognise this pattern?" asked Yukio, stepping aside so Bon could get a better look.

"I've seen many patterns before, but nothing like this. Sorry teach," said bon taking a step back.

"Why would they want us to find this?" I asked, curious.

"I guess they are tired of waiting for you guys to find them, so they are giving you some hints," said Izumo.

"What makes you think that?" I asked her, turning around to face her.

She simply shrugged her shoulders and yawned.

"Are we going back yet? Its getting late," she said, stretching out her arms.

"You guys can go, I'm going to stay here and try and figure this all out. On your way out, could you get Mr Tsubaki to meet me here," said Yukio. "Thank you. And well done today, you all did well."

Shiemi pulled me away from Yukio. I was going to ask her why, but I already knew the answer. Yukio needs time alone to think, and besides, I'm knackered.

I'm an Okumura, Rin Okumura!

Shiemi's pov

I looked at the clock. Its 12:30. When Rin and me got back, we spent the rest of the night playing board games. Chess, Monopoly, Snakes and Ladders, Charades, scrabble, Cluedo, all the games I own. Naturally, I won most of them, which frustrated Rin, but he was particularly good at chess, which I teased him about. Eventually, Rin got bored of board games, and decided to watch TV. I thought he was going to watch the notebook again, but he surprised me. He put on the walking dead, because he has recently been rather keen on zombies. I'm not fussed about gore, so I sat and read a book. A few times I did look up, and just watch Rin. He looks so happy lately. I'm so glad he's been having a good time. After that, I couldn't concentrate on my book. Maybe, I should decide now. He must hate waiting; he's such an impatient person. But its hard, I like him, but then again…

You're afraid of him.

I guess I am a little scared of him, but not very much. You're going to have to make a decision soon Shiemi, whether you like it or not. It's not fair on Rin. I sighed and shook my head, disappointed in myself. My phone buzzed in my pocket, so I took it out. It was a text from Yuki.

Shiemi! This is urgent! I need you and Rin to meet me out in the forest ASAP! It's about the tamer; I think I know who it is!

Yuki x

Strange, this isn't Yuki's phone number. Maybe he changed it.

"Hey, we gotta go," I sad to Rin, standing up and wrapping a jumper around me.

"But this episode is getting really good!" he said, watching a person get their limbs pulled off and eaten.

I shoved my phone in front of his face and let him read. He shot up and grabbed his coat.

"Let's go!" he said, rushing out the door.

We walked into the woods hand in hand. I didn't see Yuki anywhere. We tried calling out his name, but there was no answer. We kept on walking, hoping to find him soon. Eventually, we came across a patch of land with no trees on it and torches surrounding it, so we headed towards it. As we got closer, we noticed two people wearing hoodies standing in the middle of it. I started running towards him.

"Yuki! I'm glad we finally found you!" I said, grabbing his arm.

"Shiemi?"

The guy turned around and pulled down his hood. It was Shima, looking confused. The other person was Paku.

"What are you doing here Shima?" asked Rin, walking up behind me.

"We could as you the same thing," said Bon, appearing from the shadows.

"We got a text from Mr Okumura to meet us here," said Konekomaru, walking beside Bon.

"Konekomaru! You're better!" I said, relieved.

"Luckily it was just a small head injury," he said, pointing to the plaster on his forehead.

"This is slightly suspicious, isn't it?" said Rin, looking around us. "We all got a text to meet Yukio here, but where is he?"

"Rin? What are you doing here?"

We all turned around to see Yuki standing there, looking just as confused as Shima did.

"What do you mean? You told us to come here?" said Bon, holding out his phone to show the text.

"I never sent that! I got a text from Shiemi!" he said, holding out his phone as well.

Yuki! This is urgent! I need you to meet me out in the forest ASAP! It's about the tamer; I think I know who it is!

Shiemi x

Suddenly, the torches lit them selves. We were able to see each other clearly now.

"What the hell is going on?" shouted Rin.

We all stood there confused. All of a sudden, we heard a laugh. An evil laugh.

"God! You guys are soooo slow! It takes you forever to solve problems! I got bored so I decided to reveal myself!"

It was a female voice.

"Who the hell are you!" shouted Rin to the voice.

"I was hoping you'd know that. Oh well, I guess you're not as smart as you guys claim you are."

The girl stepped out of the shadows and into the light. She was wearing a true cross academy uniform, had twin ponytails, and a huge grin on her face.

Izumo Kamiki.
