Here's a chapter based on an episode from the second season of the anime. The parents will be visiting Youkai Academy again and it's not even the school festival.

ROSARIO+KIVA

Episode 52: Parents' Day

Wataru whistled happily as he walked towards school. He was actually looking forward towards today. It was Parents' Day, meaning that the students' parents would be paying the school a visit and sit-in during classes. Up until now he always had either Jiro or Riki attend Parents' Day during his elementary and middle school days but today would be different. His birth mother, Maya, would be attending and he just couldn't stop himself from smiling. Odd that Youkai Academy hadn't had a Parents' Day the previous year. Maybe this was something they were just trying out this year.

"Moka-san!" Wataru called as he spotted the pink-haired vampire in the distance. When he walked alongside her, he saw that she seemed depressed. "Moka-san, what's wrong?"

"Wataru-kun, you know what today is, don't you?" she asked.

"It's Parents' Day," he said, smiling. But then he frowned as her sad frown deepened. "Moka-san?"

"Ever since I was in school in the human world, I was the only one who didn't have her parents show up for Parents' Day," said Moka.

"Oh." No wonder Moka was depressed. At least he had his guardians but Moka didn't have anyone to even attend Parents' Day when she was in school in the human world. "My mother is coming."

"That's good," Moka replied, trying to be happy but failing.

"Maybe…maybe you can pretend she's your mother too?" he suggested. They stopped at the school gate. "Moka-san?"

Moka smiled at her beloved mate and hugged him, "Thank you, Wataru-kun." Knowing that Maya would be coming made her happy. Maya was like a surrogate mother to Moka and the former Fangire Queen did seem to adore the vampire. She then kissed him on the cheek before going towards the building.

Wataru smiled but then he felt like he was being glared at. He looked over his shoulder to see the Moka Fanclub glowering at him. He sighed. They knew they stood no chance against him so all they could was glower at him. He did, however, know how to scare them off. For a moment his face was decorated by the markings of the Fangire Clan and upon seeing those marks the groupies dispersed, not wishing to raise Wataru's ire. They were smart enough to value their lives.

"Well, Wataru," said Kivat, "You sure showed them."

"I would like not to be attacked today," said Wataru. He wanted his mother to see how he did in Youkai Academy with the day to day events. She didn't need to see how well he fought off the jealous fanboys of the three women in his life.

"It's Parents' Day," nodded Kivat, catching Wataru's drift.

"Yes," said Wataru. Approaching the school, he spotted Taiga and Mio at the shoe lockers. "Nii-san! Mio-san!"

"Yo, Wataru!" smiled Taiga, hearing his brother's call. "Guess you're looking forward to today." Wataru nodded.

"What about you, Nii-san?" asked Wataru.

"I am, but we're in different classes. How will Kaa-san be sitting in both our classes?" asked Taiga.

Wataru's eyes widened in horrified realization, "Oh…"

"Hey, don't worry," said Taiga. "We'll figure something out. In the meantime you should get to class. Your girls are waiting."

Wataru nodded and went to switch his outdoor shoes for his indoor shoes before going up to his homeroom.


Wataru had reached his classroom, hoping that his mother was already there. She wasn't unfortunately, but someone else was…

GLOMP! SMOOSH!

"Wataru!" cheered Kurumu as she had her Destined One's face in her chest.

"Good morning, Kurumu-san," greeted Wataru, but it came out muffled.

"Wataruuuuuuu!" Kurumu pouted. "Please don't be so formal! We're much closer than that, aren't we? Just call me Kurumu! Ku-ru-mu!"

"Kurumu-chan, you're suffocating him!" Moka cried, attempting to intervene and rescue her love from his untimely demise.

"But I'm just so happy! I could hug him all day!" the amorous succubus cried out before a gleam came to her eyes, signalling an idea. "Or maybe something better…" Dragging Wataru's face from her cleavage, she only gave him a moment to breathe before she wrapped her arms behind his neck and began kissing him passionately.

A dark aura began encircling the classroom, but it did not emanate from Moka or Mizore, although Moka did have a stress mark on her forehead while Mizore froze the surface of the desk she was hiding behind. Since deepening their relationship with Wataru, they knew he had much love to spare and enough for all of them, but they were admittedly jealous that one of them got the first share of the day. The dark aura came from the male students in the classroom who watched with dark jealousy as Wataru made out with one of the top beauties in school. They would have done something about it, but they knew from either rumour or experience just how tough Wataru was.

With a final kiss, Kurumu leaned back with a rosy hue on her cheeks, "Ahhh. I love you Wataru," she murmured, leaning nose to nose against her man. After a moment of enjoying the intimacy, Kurumu backed away with a glowing smile. "Oh, by the way, since Wataru and I deepened our relationship, Mama and Papa both are coming to visit! Isn't it great?"

"Your father?" Wataru blinked. That was funny, he never recalled Kurumu talking much about her father.

"What's he like?" asked Moka, her curiosity overcoming her slight jealousy at seeing Kurumu receive the first full kisses of the day.

"He's a super successful businessman, even if he can be kind of dull," Kurumu answered. "But he always makes time for Mama and me. He's been very interested in you too Wataru. Mama said he's looking forward to meeting his future son-in-law!"

"My father's coming too," Mizore spoke up from her hiding place. "Mother said that he feels it's time to meet the boy who I'll marry and bear children for."

"You have a father?" Kurumu blinked. "Well then where was he when we were visiting your home? I didn't see a hint of a man in the house."

"He patrols, hunting for yeti," Mizore answered. "He's very good at it so he's sent out a lot. He doesn't get home until late. We were probably all asleep or doing something else when he came back." She smiled at Wataru. "He's looking very forward to meeting you. I've told him everything about you and he likes what he hears."

Wataru grimaced slightly, but put on a show of a smile. While Tsurara and Ageha just seemed to adore him, he wasn't too sure how their husbands would see him. Typically, fathers were very protective of their daughters and that fierceness seemed to grow along with how attractive the boys seemed to find their girls. Judging by how beautiful Mizore and Kurumu were, Wataru feared for his personal health if the men were just as protective of them as he was.


"Achoo!"

"Bless you honey."

"Thank you Koi."


"…..!"

"Bless you Anata,"

"…."

"-giggle- you're welcome."


"I'm gonna head down to see my mom," said Kurumu. She then kissed Wataru on the cheek before exiting the class.

"See you later, Wataru-san," Mizore added as she pecked Wataru's other cheek before leaving the classroom as well.

For some reason, Wataru felt like a countdown had begun.


Inside one of the the third year classrooms, Taiga and Mio were conversing with Gin while students and their parents were milling about, seeing what their children did. Mio was a little subdued, knowing that her real parents would not be there, something which haunted her for years. Still, her future mother-in-law would be arriving to see them and it did give her a measure of comfort.

At the moment, they were conversing with Gin, who seemed utterly relaxed about the whole day as opposed to excited or anxious like the other students.

"Are your parents going to show up today Gin?" asked Mio.

"Maybe," Gin shrugged, leaning back on his chair with his feet on the desk. "Dad says he might not be able to make it because of this latest photo shoot he's at while Mom has another modelling job to deal with as well."

"Your mother's a model?" asked Mio with a gasp.

"Sure is! Take a look!" Gin grinned with pride as he pulled out a magazine before flipping open to a particular page. Taiga and Mio both blushed when the page revealed a sultry woman posing in the laciest bra and panties either of them had ever seen. The woman was thin, trim, but she seemed very fit rather than just skinny like many other models are. She was actually very busty with curves sloping in the perfect places. Her hair was very long and reached down to her backside and she was running her hands through the long and wild tresses. Her eyes were an earthen brown and held a wild sparkle in them. Her posture exuded wild energy which would make any man want to howl like a wolf in her presence.

"Why…do you have pictures of your mother like this?" asked Taiga, trying to reboot his brain.

"Are you kidding? Look at her! She's a total babe!" Gin cried, pressing the picture forward. "I'm so proud to have a beautiful model for a mom! That's how my dad met her. He's her personal photographer so they travel and work together all the time. They love it!"

Taiga nodded. Well, that certainly explained how the perverted werewolf had gotten onto the shooting site of that modelling gig they were invited to. Gin had someone on the inside he could get to work with, his own father of all people.

"What's that scar on her shoulder?" asked Mio, pointing at a very faint marking on the woman's shoulder which looked like teeth marks. They didn't take away from her good looks, but instead only enhanced them.

"Oh, that's Dad's mating mark," Gin explained. Seeing confusion, he continued. "You see, when we werewolves find a mate, we mark them to warn other wolves that they're taken and laying a hand on them could mean big trouble. Dad knew she was 'the one' the first time he saw her. He couldn't mark and marry her soon enough according to him. Mom gave one to him too once she got over her surprise of her photographer wanting her so bad he transformed."

"So werewolves have an easier time finding mates then?" asked Taiga, finding himself curious. He didn't often get to interact or learn about other monster cultures beyond how to fight them.

"Well, it's sort of an instinct thing, or a twist of fate. There's no real solid explanation," Gin shrugged. "When we meet our mates, we just know it and do everything we can to get together with them. The stories I've heard some other wolves tell when they found their mates…"

"Is that why you…you know?" asked Mio, referring to Gin's rampant womanizing ways as he seemed to constantly flirt with girls and peek on them whenever he could. He was likely trying to find his mate as his werewolf instincts drove him to.

"Partially," Gin shrugged, beginning to grin. "I also sorta don't want to get tied down too early so I want to have some fun before I do meet her."

"Ah," Taiga nodded. Well, that solved one mystery he supposed. "Too bad your parents won't be showing up then. I'd like to learn a little more about werewolf culture."

"Yeah, too bad," Gin sighed in a deep form of depression, but the grin on his face wouldn't be denied. "Guess I'll be the only one who won't have to worry about anyone breathing down my neck during the day I guess. Such a shame."

"GINEI MORIOKA!" a female voice shouted clearly from the ground outside of the building. "YOU GET YOUR FURRY TAIL OUT HERE AND GREET YOUR SISTER LIKE A GOOD LITTLE BROTHER SHOULD! DON'T MAKE ME WAIT HERE!"

Gin almost tumbled from his chair, his face going deathly pale, "Oh god no…"

"Sister?" Taiga asked.

"Quick, hide me!" Gin begged as he went under his desk.

"Gin-san, what's wrong?" Mio asked.

"It's my sister! She's totally nuts!" Gin told her.

"You must be exaggerating," said Taiga. Then again, that voice had been loud.

"I'm not! She's a nut!" said Taiga. "Please, don't let her…" His nose wiggled as he sniffed the air. "Crap, she's getting closer!"


Maya had arrived and with her were Riki, Jiro and Ruby. Maya was dressed in a black waist coat over a white turtleneck and a black skirt that reached down to her knees. As she ran a hand through her hair, several men among the parents that arrived were captivated by her beauty, only to have their feet stomped on by their spouses.

"Oh, I can't wait to see Goshujin-sama again," said Ruby, her eyes sparkling.

"You have two sons," Jiro reminded, "How will you be able to sin in both their classes?"

"Well, I think I'll go sit in Wataru's class before lunch then Taiga's after lunch," said Maya. It wasn't like she could be in two places at once, well not without magic. She looked to Ruby whose eyes were still sparkling.

"Well, guess that just means Riki, Ruby and I will sit in Ramon's class," said Jiro.

"Maya-sama, is it possible for me to see Goshujin-sama before lunch? I can't wait to see him again!" pleaded Ruby.

"Woman, it hasn't been that long since he came back here," said Jiro.

"But I still miss him! Many, many things have happened so I want to tell Goshujin-sama about them," said Ruby, blushing.

Maya smiled and then spotted three familiar women: Fujiko Sendou, Ageha Kurono and Tsurara Shirayuki. The succubus and Yuki-Onna, during their high school days, had been rivals for Otoya's affection. They had also been best friends but the rivalry broke them apart. However, Wataru, using a piece written from his father that reminded the two women of their past, was about to help them reconcile. They were still rivals still because now their daughters were going after the son of the man they loved, but considering that both their daughters could now share their rivalry was now based on who would make the best lover and wife between their two daughters.

"Fujiko-san, Tsurara-san, Ageha-san," Maya greeted, catching the attention of the three women. "It's good to see you all again. I had hoped you would all make it."

"Oh, hello Maya-san," Tsurara greeted with a smile.

"Maya," Ageha nodded.

"Hello Maya-sama!" Fujiko smiled brightly. "It's good to see you as well!"

"Hm," Maya nodded as she approached the three women who made up the unofficial club that they belonged to since their children got together. "I missed out on much of Wataru and Taiga's lives. I intend to never let it happen again." She then glanced around as if looking for somebody. "Are you here by yourselves or are your husbands here too?"

"Unfortunately I am," Fujiko sighed. "My husband had a thesis to present and he couldn't put it off any longer so he's at home working on it."

"Anata is hiding around here someplace," Tsurara answered, taking glances at the surrounding area. "If there was anyone Mizore got her shyness from, it had to be him."

"Like you're one to talk," Ageha giggled before answering Maya's question. "My honey saw some old friends of his and decided to go say hello as to get it out of the way so he could concentrate on our little girl and her husband-to-be."

"Ah," Maya nodded. She turned back to Riki, Jiro, and Ruby. "Why don't you all go ahead and meet Ramon while we go and see Wataru and the girls?"

Receiving nods (and a disappointed pout from Ruby), the group of butlers and a maid headed off to find their friend.

"Well then! Shall we be off?" asked Ageha. "Our men and children won't be waiting around forever."

"I agree," Tsurara nodded before she looked into the scenery. "Anata, make sure to follow us."

"It will be good to see Yukari again," Fujiko nodded. "I've been getting a little worried about her lately. She gave me the strangest phone call only a few days ago."

"Oh?" asked Maya. "What kind of call?"

The elder witch would have replied, but was cut off by something else.

"Mama!"

"Mother."

The enthusiastic calls of a teenage succubus and yuki-onna to be exact.


"Ah, Wataru-san. Here you are," Tsurara smiled gently as she and Mizore entered the classroom. She walked as gracefully as a traditional lady should and easily turned some heads just by doing so.

"Ah, Tsurara-san. Hello again," Wataru greeted, relieved at not having to meet any overprotective fathers just yet.

"Oh Wataru-san, didn't I say to call me Mother?" Tsurara sighed dramatically, placing a hand on her cheek. "Oh woe is me, my son-in-law holds me at such a distance. All I wish to do is be a good mother. Whatever will I do?"

"Mother, don't be so dramatic," Mizore chided while gliding closer to her mother, but instead latched onto Wataru's arm. "Wataru-san is a very polite & proper boy. He wouldn't feel right calling you mother until we are properly married and a true family."

Tsurara could only giggle and smile pleasantly at Mizore's good-natured chiding, "Ah, very true. I still wait for that day. I've always wanted a son." She giggled again before looking to the door. "Anata. He's here. Please don't be so shy and come say hello."

Wataru blinked and felt a chill run up his spine. From the door, a man poked his head in. He was obviously a Yuki-Otoko if the arctic shade of his hair was any indication. It seemed Mizore got her hair from him since it was a very similar shade. He was actually very handsome, something many other girls and women in the room noticed too. Stepping through the door, it revealed he wore traditional clothes just like his wife did, but obviously more male oriented.

"Wataru, this is my husband Hyozan Shirayuki," Tsurara smiled. "Your future father-in-law."

"Yoroshiku," Wataru greeted, bowing politely. What Wataru didn't know was that Hyozan had actually disguised himself as a yeti while he had been visiting Mizore's hometown. The Yuki-Otoko had only been happy to help his only daughter with her plan to get Wataru. He knew how hard it was for a Yuki-Onna to find a proper husband. They weren't many Yuki-Otoko with the females outnumbering the males in their village by a large margin so the Yuki-Onna had to venture out to find mates from other races. When he heard his daughter had found a mate he was happy, but not as happy as his wife, obviously. Still, he wanted to meet Wataru face-to-face.

Nodding at Wataru's greeting, Hyozan then leaned over and whispered into Tsurara's ear. The elder woman listened and then nodded before regarding Wataru, "Anata says it is very nice to meet you and that he is glad you have been taking good care of our little girl."

"Father is very shy," Mizore whispered into her boyfriend's ear, answering his unspoken question. "He usually talks through mother."

"Oh," Wataru blinked.


"Riki? Jiro?" Ramon questioned as he saw his fellow endangered Mazoku friends walk into his class. "Ruby-san?" he asked, spotting the maid.

"Hello, Ramon," said Jiro. "How's school treating ya?" He grinned in a feral way. Some of the girls in class looked at Jiro and couldn't help but admire him. He looked like such a badboy, even in his suit.

"Have you been eating well?" Riki asked as he stood to the left and behind Jiro.

"Oh, it's been great here!" smiled Ramon. "I never knew school could be fun!"

"We've been hearing some interesting things as well," said Jiro, grinning. "Wataru-sama told us you've gained a harem."

"I doubt he worded it that way," said Ramon. "I just joined the Swim Club."

"They no doubt welcomed you after finding out what you are," added Jiro.

"That could be a reason," Ramon shrugged.

Kokoa sat at her desk, watching the exchange. She sighed. Her parents weren't going to come to this Parents' Day and for a moment she felt saddened by the fact. However, she would just cover it up with her haughty attitude.

"It won't be so bad," she murmured.

Ruby sighed too. It wasn't that she wasn't happy for Ramon. She was. But what she really wanted to do was to go and greet her beloved Goshujin-sama.


Taiga and Mio could only watch as Gin was trapped in a headlock administered by an older girl. This was, apparently, his big sister who had come in his parents' place.

She looked to about college age and was wearing a very nice designer blouse which was unbuttoned just enough to show her cleavage, something she seemed to share with her mother. She wore a denim skirt with knee high boots. She had several bracelets and even a golden moon necklace on. Her hair was wild, but tied back in a messy braid. Her face was very attractive, bearing a strong resemblance to the woman in the photo Gin had shown them, but at the moment it was twisted into a furious frown.

"I can't believe my little brother, the boy who couldn't even talk to a girl while in elementary school could turn into such a pervert!" she growled, keeping her brother in her powerful headlock, incidentally keeping his face engulf in her breast. Not that she noticed in the midst of her anger. "Mom told me all about it while you were off photographing with Dad! As the duty of the older sister, I am to DRIVE the perversion out of you!"

"Mph!" Gin whined, his face concealed by likely one of the two sets of breasts he didn't want to get close to.

"Excuse us."

The female werewolf looked up from where she was punishing her brother and saw the two standing in front of her. Both looked pleasant enough and the girl had a simply adorable baby bird perched on her shoulder. Gin was thankful for the intervention since it meant his sister stopped her crushing pressure, even if he still couldn't escape.

"Hello, I'm Taiga Nobori," Taiga introduced himself. "I am, unfortunately, Ginei's classmate."

"Mio Suzuki," said Mio. She then gestured to the baby phoenix perched on her shoulder, "And this is Pyo-chan."

"Oh!" the girl gasped, standing up straight, dragging her brother with her. "Where are my manners? My name is Ayame Morioka. Ginei's my little brother and my parents asked me to come here in their place since neither of them were able to find the time off to make it themselves." She then bowed deeply to the both of them. "Thank you for befriending my brother, even if he is an extreme pervert."

"MPH!" Gin cried. He wasn't that bad!

"Oh he isn't that bad," Mio defended her fellow third-year. "He's just…enthusiastic."

"Oh you're so polite," Ayame smiled. "It's good to know my brother has friends who are a good influence."

"MRRR!" Gin cried out, giving one last tug before finally freeing himself from his sister's grip. Inhaling deeply, he glared at his sibling. "Aneki! You're as crazy as ever! I am not some slavering pervert!"

"Could have fooled me!" Ayame huffed, glaring at her brother. "Really, peeking in through the changing room windows? Framing an innocent student for it all? Were you really that desperate?"

"How did you know about that?" he asked, shocked.

"Mom was most informative after I got back from university," Ayame frowned, crossing her arms over her chest, making her breasts become that much more noticeable for the rest of the boys in class. "Honestly, do you really think that the school didn't let Mom and Dad know the stunt you pulled? If it wasn't for the fact you got your ass kicked by a Fangire, you would have been facing a lot more than just some missed classes for what you did!"

"He did not kick my ass!" Gin retorted hotly. "He just got a lucky shot in!"

"I'm sure," Ayame rolled her eyes.


GLOMP! SMOOSH!

For the second time in a single day, Wataru's face was trapped between a massive pair of breasts. Of course these breasts belonged to Ageha Kurono, the mother of Kurumu Kurono.

"Hello, Wataru~" Ageha purred in a sultry fashion. He couldn't answer. He was too busy trying not to suffocate and even if he could reply it would come out muffled.

"Mama, don't do that!" said Kurumu as she pulled Wataru away. He was almost turning blue from lack of oxygen. She hugged Wataru possessively. "He's mine," she whined.

"Mou, Kurumu-chan, haven't you heard of sharing?" Ageha pouted.

"I have, and we don't share Destined Ones," said Kurumu. She caressed Wataru's face gently. "Are you okay, Wataru?"

"I'm fine," said Wataru once he regained the ability to breath. He then saw his mother enter the classroom. "Kaa-san, welcome," greeted Wataru as he hugged his mother.

"Well, I couldn't really miss this occasion," she said. She'd missed a lot in her son's life but now was time to make up for lost time. Attending these events would be a good start. Of course, she had three daughters to consider too.

"Oh, Moka-chan." Maya smiled, spotting the pink-haired vampire. Releasing her son, she swooped to Moka and captured her in a similar hug. The young vampire was of course surprised, but welcomed it whole-heartedly.

"Welcome to our school, Maya-san," said Moka, smiling as she received the hug.

Kurumu and Mizore glowered at Moka as she received a hug from Wataru's mother. They admittedly felt threatened by this. Moka had already gained Maya's favour quicker than either of them had and it made them feel a little insecure about themselves.

"Ah, ah Moka-chan," Maya smiled, squeezing Moka tighter. "Didn't I tell you to start calling me Okaa-san? You're one of my daughters in all but name now, aren't you?"

"Mn," Moka blushed vibrantly, but the smile on her face was unmistakable. "O-Okaa-san."

"There you go," Maya smiled, withholding the urge to squeal like a teenager who stumbled onto something adorable. She then approached the teenage succubus and Yuki-Onna and smiled warmly at them. "I trust that you both have been taking good care of my son as well."

"Of course," Mizore nodded.

"You bet!" Kurumu beamed.

Maya smiled again, wrapped an arm around either girl and hugged them close. It was enough to dispel the discomfort both had felt when they saw the former Fangire Queen hug their vampire friend. Maya didn't play favourites when it came to her children, and the three girls she counted among them.

Finally, Fujiko Sendou came and gave her daughter a hug. The tiny witch gave off a squeal as she babbled to her mother about all of the cool things that had happened in recent days along with how much more she wanted to show her.

"Koi? Are you in here?" asked a male voice.

"Ah, in here Honey!" Ageha beamed, waving to the door.

Entering the classroom was a man whom no one had ever seen before. He wore a sharp business suit and a pair of small glasses over his eyes, which seemed to be a match for Kurumu's. He had dark hair cut in a sensible yet fashionable manner and slight stubble on his face, making him appear like the modern executive hunk stereotype. Many women and girls in the room began to drool, but then began to cry when they saw the wedding ring on his finger.

"Ah," the man smiled, approaching Ageha and the group. His eyes then landed on Wataru. "I take it this is the young man that you and Ku-chan told me about?"

"Papa!" Kurumu whined. "I told you not to call me that it public! It makes me sound like a little kid!"

"That's right Honey," Ageha beamed, looking at Wataru with her husband. "This is Wataru Kurenai, our daughter's Destined One."

"Kurenai?" Mr. Kurono questioned. "Hm, isn't that the same name of that man you fell in love with in your high school days?"

Ageha no doubt had told her husband about her first love, Otoya. Still, he didn't hold it against her. It made sense and she had been a young girl back then. "Yes, it is."

"So, Wataru-kun," Mr. Kuruno began.

"Hai?" Wataru responded almost instinctively.

"Tell me, what are your intentions for my daughter?" he asked in a firm voice. Everyone watched as Wataru fell under Kurumu's father's scrutiny. He had faced terrifying odds before but an overprotective father was not one of them. He shivered under Mr. Kurono's gaze. But then he took a deep breath and answered.

"Kurono-san, I love Kurumu-san deeply. She's my precious friend and one of the people I care for. I know she can be very passionate but that's what I like about her. She doesn't hide her feelings and I know how she feels about me. I just hope I can make her happy," said Wataru as confidently as he could.

The man's gaze hardened slightly but Wataru kept his composure but then Mr. Kurono slapped his shoulder, causing Wataru to flinch as the man's smile appeared on his face. "I think I like you kid!" He could sense empty words but seeing Wataru's eyes and conviction had told him what he needed to know. This boy really loved his daughter and wasn't just using her for sex. It was a huge weight off of his shoulders to hear Wataru's conviction. He had been worried that Kurumu was jumping to conclusions, but it seemed she had picked well after all.

Kurumu let out a breath of relief as she watched her father give Wataru his approval.


The parents all took their seats in the back of the class, observing Ms. Nekonome as she taught the class. This was something new for Wataru. Back when he was a child he never had his mother sitting in class watching him before, only his guardians. It was the same for Moka. During Parents' Day she was the only one who never had her parents appear but now that Maya was here she felt happy. It was a great feeling.


During music class, Kurumu got up and sang a song she entitled 'Yafu Na No Ni' and sang it with such passion that it brought all her classmates, and their parents, to tears. She felt confident with her singing voice and glanced to Wataru who applauded while wiping his tears.

Then it was Mizore's turn and she sang a song entitled 'Snowstorm'. She got a positive reaction from everyone, until it began to snow, but then the snow turned into a freezing blizzard. By the end of the song only Tsurara, Hyozan and Maya remained unfrozen while everyone else were in blocks of ice. Tsurara and Hyozan applauded their daughter while Maya could only gaze at everyone worriedly. Mizore did put a lot of emotion into her singing, but as a result her powers were affected as well.

After everyone was melted out of the ice thanks to a member of the faculty who could wield fire, it was Wataru's turn. He didn't sing but instead he picked up his violin and began playing. It was a piece that Maya recognized. Otoya had written it for her and Wataru had it memorized.

Ageha and Tsurara imagined seeing Otoya's spirit standing beside Wataru, playing alongside him. They loved their husbands but they still missed their white knight. A first love was a powerful thing and certainly never forgotten.

Wataru finished with a signature plucking of the strings and then there were applauses from his classmates and their parents, and also from the teacher.


PE was next and the girls were playing tennis. The tennis uniform was a one-piece white dress with a short skirt and orange trim. Everyone was of course putting up their best efforts in order to impress their parents. Yukari played her best and of course always made sure to check to see if her mother was watching.

"Yah!" Moka cried, sending a tennis ball hurtling back at her opponent. She was playing two-on-two with a classmate as her partner.

"Good job Moka-chan!" Maya cheered from the sidelines.

Moka flushed slightly, more than she was from the exertion but waved back at Maya with a smile. Of course, many of the other students took notice of how familiar the regal woman was being so close to Moka.

"Say, Moka-san?" asked her teammate. "Is that woman your mother?"

"Um, sort of," Moka smiled sheepishly. "She's more like my mother-in-law."

"What?-!" the girl and their opponents cried out. Moka's teammate continued. "I didn't know you and Kurenai-san were so serious!"

"It's not official yet, but it will happen," Moka nodded, her smile growing.

On the opposite side, Mizore's own teammate could only complain at her. Ever since the game had started, Mizore had yet to move an inch outside of her ready stance, "Put more effort into it!"

"I can't," said Mizore. "I might melt."

Boys and girls were separated during PE. At the moment, the boys were playing at another tennis court reserved for them but still in view of the girls' court. The boys were actually paying more attention to the girls whose skirts would flip up exposing what they wore underneath. One boy made a comment, "Man, Moka-san sure looks great in that uniform. I can almost see what's under…WARGH!" The ball had flown right past him and hit the fence. It had been so close that it had even cut off a few of the hairs on his head.

Wataru was on the opposite side as he apologized after his serve, "Sorry!" Of course he had actually been paying attention. Kurenai had decided to make a subtle move and launch the ball a little harder than Wataru intended.

"Gambatte, Goshujin-sama!" Ruby cheered for Wataru. She didn't notice the boys and some fathers eyeing her with envious gazes as they drew connections between her and Wataru.

Meanwhile, Ageha had pulled her daughter aside after distracting her husband with a request for some water for their child. While she was happy that Kurumu managed get to the next level of her relationship with Wataru, her daughter was still in competition with Moka and Mizore. Both succubae relocated to a clearing inside the withered forest surrounding the academy. Once there, Ageha decided to begin her questioning.

"Kurumu, what have you done after you and Wataru slept together?" Ageha asked.

"Well, I always greet him with a hug and kiss," said Kurumu, smiling fondly. It was so much easier to be affectionate with Wataru in public now. Of course, she would certainly never turn down another chance for a romp between the sheets if she could get it.

"That's good, but now it's time to be more aggressive!" Flames seem to be blazing from Ageha's eyes.

"Aggressive? I don't think I have to-"

Ageha cut her off, "There's no doubt Tsurara is going to make sure Mizore marries him first! I know her." Despite reconciling and re-establishing their friendship, Tsurara and Ageha were still rivals. Though Wataru would no doubt marry all the girls he loved as one of his privileges of being Fangire royalty, Ageha wanted her daughter to walk the aisle first. "You'll need to make him take you as his FIRST wife!"

"First wife…" The thought had Kurumu begin to fantasize…she was walking down the aisle with her father, dressed in a pristine white gown. At the altar stood Wataru who looked dashing in a tuxedo. Kurumu's father let her go as she stood next to Wataru and he gazed at her lovingly.

"Do you understand, Kurumu?" Ageha asked.

"I DO!" Kurumu cried out, only it was hard to tell if she was responding to something in her fantasy or to her mother.

Mizore and Moka were taking a break while their court was being used by two more pairs. Tsurara, always sneaky, came up to her daughter while her husband was off getting many bags of ice for the three of them. "Mizore, how are you and Wataru doing?"

Mizore blushed, remembering his warm embrace against her bare skin. Tsurara, noting that expression, knew it well. She had worn it several times during her marriage to Hyozan. Mizore had gotten to that point where she was now Wataru's lover. That was a good step forward to what Tsurara was planning. Operation: Son-In-Law had been in preparation for quite some time now and even if Wataru could have all the girls as wives, she was determined to make Mizore Wataru's first wife. Maybe Wataru could even live in their home. Castle Doran would look out of place but it might become a symbol of power for the Yuki-Onna.

"He loves me very much," said Mizore confidently with a loving smile. She had to share him though but when they were alone it made Mizore very happy. He would pull her into his arms, kiss her fully, then take her to the bed. It got really hot that Mizore threatened to melt but she didn't. They made love and Mizore had been satisfied. He had been an amazing lover and she hoped to have more nights with him like that.

"I'm sure he does," Tsurara acknowledged. "Now, I think you should try and seduce him."

"Seduce him?" Mizore asked. But she and Wataru had already reached the ultimate level of intimacy. Why would she need to seduce him when she could just ask him for the comfort all couples needed at times? "Why?"

"So you can get even closer to him and convince him to marry you first," was Tsurara's reply.

"Oh…" Mizore blinked, her eyes widening. How could she have forgotten that part? She could already picture it, their union being blessed by the Snow Priestess… and then their honeymoon…-sigh- "How?"

"You're in a sexy tennis uniform. I'm sure you can get creative." Tsurara could get devious. Mizore wasn't unattractive. She had a nice slender body and a cute face. What turned people off was her habit of being a little creepy when she didn't mean to, but Tsurara knew her daughter was a beautiful Yuki-Onna. They may not be like the succubae race but Yuki-Onna had their own seduction techniques, even if they were a little more subtle compared to succubae.


Wataru decided that he must've been channelling Kurenai because he had been very aggressive during the match. The boys knew that the King of Youkai Acaemy would be a tough opponent but most of the time he was just so nice and polite. Then again they also knew that in fights he could be very fearsome. The teacher told him to take a break and he did. As he wiped sweat off his brow, he felt a towel pressed against the side of his face. Blinking, she turned to see it presented to him by a familiar girl with blue hair.

"A towel, Wataru," offered Kurumu, smiling.

"Ah, thank you." Wataru took the offered towel. She even had a bottle of water for him.

"You must be parched," she said.

"Yes, I am a little thirsty," admitted Wataru, taking the offered drink.

Ruby had actually been standing by with a towel and water for Wataru but was crestfallen when Kurumu beat her to it. 'So unfair…'

Sitting on a bench together, Kurumu watched with a smile as Wataru took a sip to cool himself off. "Say Wataru, when do you have another match?"

"Not until the others are done," Wataru shrugged. "So I have some time. Why?"

"Well, I thought I'd help you stay warmed up for your next match," Kurumu grinned.

"Really?" Wataru blinked. "How?"

"Just follow me," the succubus smiled as she stood up. She took Wataru's hand and pulled him along.


Maya was speaking with Moka at the moment, the two of them getting along handsomely. Hearing that Maya was Wataru's mother had been shocking to the many students of Youkai Academy. She was so young and beautiful, much too young-looking to have had children. The boys had seen her when she came into their classroom earlier, many of which predictably became fanboys on the spot. To think such a woman had two sons already.

"I actually came to check up on Wataru and Taiga," Maya admitted as she chatted with her future daughter-in-law. "But I see I didn't need to worry."

"Well, not exactly," Moka replied sheepishly. "Wataru-kun has been receiving many challenges from other students."

"Considering the way this school is I'm not surprised," sighed Maya. "They are all trying to become top dog and assume that beating my son would be easy. They still have no idea what it means for someone to wield Kiva's power."

"That's true," said Kivala as she perched herself on Maya's shoulder. "They are just arrogant fools who are jealous of him. I can see why, though. He's very well-mannered, talented, reliable and dedicated in protecting the ones he loves. He especially loves dear Moka-chan."

Moka's cheeks turned as pink as her hair.

Maya ran her hand through her hair. Moka looked so much like her old friend that it was like speaking with her again, though Moka was a teenage girl and not someone as old as Akasha. However, anybody who commented on Akasha's true age would be dealt swift punishment.

"Excuse me, Moka-chan, but I would like to speak with Wataru for the moment," said Maya.

"Oh, I'll come with you," said Moka.


Wataru was up against a tree, holding Kurumu in his arms as they kissed. When she meant he would warm him up, this was what she meant. Their lips were pressed, open-mouthed, with tongues wrestling. Wataru's cheeks were flushed and so were Kurumu's as she felt her Destined One holding her close. Still, she wished he would touch a little lower down her back and maybe even fondle her but he was a gentleman.

Well, he did touch a lot more during their first time which she had burned into her memory.

They broke the kiss, panting. Wataru did indeed feel very warm after that. "Kurumu-san…that was…"

"Kurumu-chan," she corrected. "We're lovers now. Speaking of which…" She traced circles on his chest. "I'm in the mood."

"The mood?" Wataru asked, confused, and then he realized what she was talking about. His blood rushed up to his face...and down below. "B-b-but! Someone could catch us!"

"I know!" Kurumu grinned, "Isn't it exciting? Don't you want to know what color underwear I'm wearing? I picked it out especially for you…" Kurumu started to pull up the hem of her skirt when all of a sudden a blade of ice flew past her cheek, cutting the skin. Blood leaked out. "Ow!" she jumped in shock and pain.

"Kurumu-san!" Wataru gasped as she saw the cut.

"Oi, Stalker!" Kurumu snapped as she spotted Mizore who was coming up from her hiding place. Even if the girls were alright with sharing, they could get aggressive over who could have alone time with Wataru and Mizore was still a little possessive as she, like Kurumu, wanted to have alone time with Wataru.

"I'm sorry, that was meant to hit your forehead," stated Mizore coolly. She smiled at Wataru, "Hello, Wataru-san."

Wataru wasn't the least bit amused by Mizore's attack and chided her, "Mizore-san, you shouldn't attack your friends like that."

Mizore knew she had upset Wataru. She immediately bowed her head and began playing with her index fingers, "I'm sorry."

Kurumu was instantly at Wataru's side and hugging him. "Now, go and shoo! It's time for me and my Destined One to bond."

Mizore's scowl return and she shoved Kurumu away before taking her place. "My turn," Mizore insisted.

"Hey!" Kurumu shouted as she landed on her rear. She got back up and dusted herself off before yanking Mizore off Wataru. "Hey, it's first come first serve!" Kurumu shouted. They started to have a shoving match, trying to be the first to reach Wataru and resume their activities. Wataru, not wanting to see the two girls hurt each other, tried to intervene.

"Girls, please!" he started as he approached but then tripped and fell forward. "Woah!" He stumbled forward and crashed into the pair, knocking them over into a heap. It took him a moment to get his senses back, but when he did he wished he hadn't. Wataru's right hand was on Kurumu's breasts, squeezing and his face had landed between Mizore's legs. Kurumu moaned and Mizore also let out a sigh of pleasure. Normally it was quite a compromising position, but neither of them were one to care about that when it came to their man.

Kurumu cooed, "Oh, Wataru, if you wanted a threesome you just had to ask!"

Mizore recovered and sighed, "I was hoping for some alone time, but I suppose in this situation we have to be quick. I go first."

Kurumu rounded up on her, "The hell you do!"

Mizore pointed out, "But look where his face is."

Kurumu shot back, "Then use his mouth! I get the lower parts!"

Suddenly, the two felt two menacing auras manifesting behind them and froze. They slowly and fearfully turned to see Moka and Maya staring at the scene. While Maya was happy that her son was becoming very close to his lovers, there was a time and place for such activities. Moka was just mad because they were making Wataru do something lewd in broad daylight.

"Wataru…do I need to give you a lesson on the proper time and place for things?" Maya asked with a frown.

"O-O-O-Okaa-san! This isn't what it looks like!" Wataru cried, jumping to his feet. "Honest! Kurumu-san and Mizore-san were fighting and I tried to stop them! But I tripped and ended up where we were! Honest! I wasn't doing anything!"

"Mou, but we want you to," Kurumu pouted.

"It felt very nice…" Mizore added.

"Oh…I bet it did…" Moka frowned, clenching her teeth. Honestly, why was it that Kurumu and Mizore were getting all the opportunities to be intimate with Wataru today? She wanted some 'happy time' too!


Once the lunch bell rang, everyone was seated at a table together. There were baskets filled with scrumptious bread and also steak platters in front of each of them. Obviously, a special menu for today's Parents' Day. Jiro's mouth watered at all that prime beef as he sat with Rika with Ramon seated between them. The three endangered Mazoku were close friends, looking out for the youngest like older brothers. Ramon's female classmates had commented on them, wondering if they were Mermen as well. His male classmates had inquired about Ruby, asking if she was single so they could make a move on her.

Kokoa, with some insistence from Moka which was reinforced by Maya who frightened the redhead, agreed to join them for lunch. Taiga and Mio were also included and Maya commented on the baby phoenix perched on her shoulder.

Wataru had somehow gotten seated between Mizore and Kurumu with Moka seated across from them. Moka glowered slightly but Wataru reached over and put a hand on hers in comfort.

Up until now, Hyozan and Mr. Kurono had watched Wataru and liked what they see. He had soft features but they hid a strong resolve underneath. They of course had heard about Kiva, and how Wataru had saved the world from the Legendorga. It was huge news in the Monster World. However, they had yet to see Wataru in action, unlike their wives and daughters.

"Taiga, after lunch I will be sitting in your class next," Maya informed her eldest son.

"Thank you, Kaa-san," said Taiga, glad that she would be there. She would also be there for Mio whom she had adopted as a surrogate daughter as well since the young girl had inherited her rank as Fangire Queen. Still, the new Queen had a lot to learn but fortunately for her she had Maya to guide her. The transition hadn't been easy. She had believed herself to be human until Bishop found her and revealed the truth.

Ruby looked at Wataru and scowled. She had wanted to sit next to her beloved Goshujin-sama but as a servant she would sit with Riki, Ramon and Jiro. It was so unfair! Didn't she deserve some affection and attention from her beloved Goshujin-sama too?

"Wataru-kun, have you ever thought of being a professional violinist?" Mr. Kurono asked. "My daughter had informed me you won a contest, earning a scholarship to study in Vienna."

"For university, sir," Wataru confirmed, "And I'm not really sure. I don't do so well on stage."

"Stage fright?" Mr. Kurono had heard that Wataru once had a bad case of stage fright. He found it odd that someone with such an outstanding talent would have stage fright, but it seemed to be one of the contradictions that made Wataru who he was.

"Oh, I've conquered it, for the most part," Wataru added. "But…if I ever became professional the number of people watching would be overwhelming for me."

"Well, I'm sure with practice you will completely get over it," said Mr. Kurono. "My daughter will certainly help."

"Of course I will, Papa!" smiled Kurumu.

Hyozan whispered to Tsurara who nodded. "Wataru, any future plans? Like marriage, perhaps?"

"Ma-marriage!-?" Wataru sputtered. "Tsurara-san, that's too soon!"

"Oh, but my daughter will soon be at that age and will need a husband," Tsurara reminded.

"Mother…" Mizore blushed. "I want to wait."

"Wait?" the elder yuki-onna blinked.

"Wataru had asked me to graduate high school with him. After that he will…we will…marry," said Mizore blushing, but with an unmistakable silly grin on her face.

"Yes, we all promised to graduate together," said Wataru as he gazed at the girls he'd befriended.

"Well, at least I know you're serious about staying with our daughter," said Tsurara, seeing how serious Wataru was about his graduation promise. She would need to keep her plans for grandchildren on hold for another year but it was only one year. Wataru had made an impression on the Snow Priestess as well so there would be no forcing her daughter and her potential husband apart.

Maya smiled. Wataru had so many girls who loved him but he never took advantage of their affection for him. He returned the affection and he cared for all of them. Despite such ideals being considered weak in the eyes of the Fangire Clan, there were few who believed in love despite species. Maya had fallen for a human, which was a huge taboo for their Clan, but she did not care. She loved Otoya and never regretted it.

She only wished the girls would be able to spend more time with Wataru than Maya had been able to. Otoya had not been able to watch his son grow up.

Or maybe he was watching over them from where he was now. Still, the Otoya from the past was proud of Wataru, his son.

As they continued to eat and converse, a group of boys watched Wataru with utmost hatred and envy. They were 3rd years and they could not accept the fact that Wataru had been crowned the King of Youkai Academy. While they knew he was a powerful monster with the bloodline of the Fangire Clan royalty, he was still just a filthy half-breed in their eyes. They had not acted before for various reasons but to see him, surrounded by beautiful women, and smiling happily annoyed them.

They hated it, and they hated him.

Now though, it was going to change.

"WATARU KURENAI!"

Wataru withheld the urge to groan as he heard the battle cry. It was like clockwork and even on a special day like today it never seemed to change. Someone took offense to his very existence, status, or the fact that he had a bevy of beautiful girls hanging out with him and decided that gratuitous amounts of violence would make their problem with him go away.

Grabbing Kurumu and Mizore by the waists, he allowed Kurenai more influence which sparked his Fangire markings before he leaped away from his seat just before the large fist of a brown-furred, razor-fanged eight-foot wendigo crashed down on the spot.

Skidding to a stop on the tile floor as other students and their parents backed away, Wataru eyed the three wendigos glaring at him with red-eyed fury. They were large, muscled, furry, and packing a very bad attitude.

"This couldn't wait for one…fucking…day?" Kurenai growled, setting down two of his three mates.

"What better day to kick your ass and claim your girls than in front of your parents and theirs?" snickered one of the trio.

Kurenai growled, instantly hating the wendigo and his two friends. Standing up, his markings flared further as he called out, "Kivat! Tatsulot!"

As the wendigos advanced on him, they were sent staggering back as they were smacked around by a small bat-like creature and a tiny golden dragon. Both had flown down from a removable panel in the ceiling, the likes of which Mizore would use to sneak around the academy.

"Kivatte Ikuze!" Kivat cheered.

"Pyun Pyun Fortissimo!" cried out Tatsulot.

Kurenai snatched Kivat out of the air and pressed him against his free hand. Kivat sank his fangs into the flesh, feeding power in Kurenai which forced on the appearance of his royal Fangire markings. Ghostly chains appeared around his waist before melting and morphing to form the Kivat Belt. Thrusting Kivat forward as the bat glared at the wendigos, Kurenai called, "Henshin!" before he pulled Kivat bat and hung him upside down from the Power Roost perch in front of the belt.

Quicksilver began to coat Wataru's body, taking shape when Tatsulot also got onto his perch on the figure's left arm. The quicksilver turned gold and there was an explosion of bright golden light which took the form of golden bats that flew away from the figure's body to reveal him in his majestic glory.

Emperor Kiva had decided to make his stand.

The appearance of Kiva in his Emperor Form caused the girls in the first year classes that were present in the cafeteria to cheer, squeal and even faint.

Kiva glared at the wendigos through his blood red Omnilens and did a challenging 'come here' gesture with his hand. They were only happy to oblige as they charged at him. He didn't hesitate to retaliate as they lunged. He jumped up and used a reverse tornado kick that slammed into their skulls, knocking them out of the air and sent them crashing into one of the vacant cafeteria tables.

"FIGHT! FIGHT!" Saizou Komiya shouted, rallying the other students into cheering. He was with his 'Mommy' and 'Daddy' whose eyes were glued on the scene before them.

Tossing his crimson cape over his shoulder, Kiva looked down at the wendigos. "Not only did you attack me, but you dared to disrupt this special day where students get to spend a day with their parents in this school. And for what? Jealousy? Pathetic."

"SHUT UP!" one of the wendigos roared and threw a fist at Emperor Kiva but the Fangire Prince caught it in his hand, stopping it cold. He began to sweat as Kiva's crimson Omnilens seemed to be staring deep into his soul. He could feel the powerful demonic aura radiating from Kiva. It was almost suffocating.

While this was happening, Hyozan Shirayuki and Kurotsuki Kurono (Kurumu's father) both watched, feeling some measure of surprise at what was happening in front of them. Regular human adults would have been appalled that such violent fighting was happening in a school, but both men were youkai and knew that sometimes there were those who felt the need to show their dominance. Still, the fact that it happened so suddenly and without provocation was what surprised them. That and the fact that no one seemed to be all that willing to stop it.

"This happens everyday since the new semester started," Mizore sighed as she and Kurumu rejoined their friends and families. "Boys are always jealous of him."

"As if punks like that could even scratch my Destined One!" Kurumu huffed, glaring at the three wendigos as they tried to beat Wataru. Honestly, this was supposed to be the day her father and her Destined One would get to know each other and be friends, making it a perfect opportunity to get closer to her wedding day!

"At least he's proving himself capable of protecting our daughter," Kurotsuki commented, watching Kiva kick the first wendigo so hard he flew back a few feet before hitting the floor.

"…" Hyozon observed, his lips moving but no words coming out. The only person who seemed to understand him in the chaos was his own wife.

"I agree Anata," Tsurara smiled. "Wataru-san is proving himself to be a good match for our Mizore, if not the best one."

The other two wendigos tried to attack, lunging at him from both sides, but Kiva suddenly transformed, assuming the form of the Emperor Bat before flying up. He swooped down, slashing the two wendigos with his wings and knocking them down before he landed and changed back to his Rider form. He eyed the two youkai, finding them both out cold from the impacts he had dealt them.

Seeing the last opponent recover, Kiva strode over to the first wendigo and hauled him to his face. "Let me tell you this only once," Kiva growled, causing the wendigo to whimper, "Come after me or my friends again and I will send you to the hospital, permanently!"

"Gnnn! Got it!" the wendigo nodded rapidly. Seeing the message was made, Kiva dropped his enemy and turned to face his family and friends again.

"My apologies," he sighed, approached the group. Kivat and Tatsulot detached themselves, bringing a gold flash before Kiva changed back into Wataru. He looked at the floor guiltily, as if it was he who had caused trouble. "I just wanted the day to be peaceful, but I guess trouble refuses to leave me alone."

"Wataru…" the girls began, ready to stand up and speak in his defence.

"Wataru-kun," Kurotsuki sighed as he and his wife stood up. Hyozan and Tsurara did the same before all four of them approached him. The succubus' husband spoke first, "You mustn't blame yourself for the actions of others. In fact, by taking such decisive action just reassured me that you are a good man and a fine choice for our daughter."

"That's what I've been saying ever since I met him," Ageha agreed with her husband.

"I agree," Tsurara nodded. "Time and again you've risked yourself to protect our little girls as well as show no mercy to anyone who would threaten the people you care about. If that doesn't say that you're perfect for our little girl, I don't know what does."

"…I approve…" Hyozan spoke, his voice barely a whisper. However, he then ducked his head and began playing with his fingers as his quiet voice had everyone glance at him.


Maya, as promised, spent the second half of the school day sitting in Taiga's class to observe both her son and heir. She also met with Gin's sister, finding her very mature and polite, though why Gin flinched every time she looked at him made her curious. Like the boys in Wataru's class, the boys in Taiga's class were stunned by her beauty. They would not have believed that she was hundreds of years old just by her appearance. She was young looking, and hot, and some of the married men were caught staring at her by their spouses.

Many couches would double as sleeping quarters this night.

Lunch had been a pretty exciting affair for them but Maya was happy to see that Wataru was able to take care of himself and the girls he loved so much. He was indeed his father's son.

Maya paid attention not only to the class but to her son and Mio and how they got along. While being King and Queen naturally drew them to each other, the relationship was more emotional rather than one out of obligation due to their roles. Taiga and Mio cared for each other not because they were the Fangire King and Queen, but because…well there was just no reason. They just cared about each other.

It seemed that Bishop's teaching had left Taiga as the King discovered his advisor's traitorous actions coming to light, as well as how distasteful they were. He no longer despised humans as he did before or look down upon other races. Fangires were a lot worse than vampires when it came to 'lesser' races. Vampires saw those beneath as trash or servants and treated them as such. Fangires on the other hand eliminated other races whom held the potential to match them even if they were fellow Mazoku, which resulted in the extinction of the Wolfen, Merman and Franken races, with the exception of Jiro, Ramon and Riki.


The final bell rang, marking the end of the day. It was a very exciting Parents' Day but considering that it was Youkai Academy it was just another day for Wataru Kurenai. At least he once again asserted his position in school but it would just encourage his jealous schoolmates to come after him again.

Maya hugged her son, "See you during school break," she said.

"I will, Kaa-san," said Wataru. Maya then went and hug her eldest.

"Take care of yourself, your brother and Mio-chan," Maya reminded.

"I will, Kaa-san," smiled Taiga. She hugged Mio.

"Take care of Taiga, OK? He needs a good woman in his life," Maya said.

Mio blushed at what Maya was implying and answered softly, "Yes."

Maya also went and hugged the girls Wataru had befriended, giving them her blessing. She then walked away with Riki and Jiro. However, Ruby was strangely absent from the farewells. Most everyone assumed she just hated to say goodbye to her Goshujin-sama and decided to leave ahead of time.

While Maya was having some parting words with her sons, Ageha and Tsurara were giving their daughters some more words of advice and encouragement while Kurotsuki had a few words with the young Fangire Prince. He really did approve of the boy dating his daughter. His daughter deserved a strong man, but also one with kindness and a gentle heart and Wataru was all that. He also saw that the boy had a bright future and would take good care of his little girl. Hyozan would have had similar words, but he was still embarrassed over having spoken out loud and had gone into hiding. Mizore didn't seem to mind, apparently knowing that he was nearby to offer his support.


"Come in," said the Headmaster and the door opened. His glowing eyes widened slightly with mirth as he saw who it was. "Ah, Maya!"

"Hello, Mikogami-san," said Maya as she entered.

"Please, take a seat," said Mikogami and she did, sitting in a chair across from him. "It has been a long time since we've seen each other, hasn't it?"

"Indeed," Maya agreed. "We have much to talk about."

"Indeed, we do."


"EEEEEHHHHH!-?"

It was a big surprise that Wataru and the girls found when they reached the dorms. Standing in front of the boys' dorm was none other than Ruby Toujo. She was in her regular clothes rather than her maid uniform. Next to her were several suitcases, no doubt her things.

"Ruby-san?" Moka blinked. "What are you doing here?"

"Maya-sama had arranged with the Headmaster to allow me to stay," Ruby said happily. "From now on I will be staying with you, Goshujin-sama!"

"Oh no you won't!" Kurumu snapped, stepping forward to confront the elder witch. Knowing Ruby, the witch would probably put herself in Wataru's room, giving her more chances of being alone and seducing the young Fangire Prince.

"Oh, relax," Ruby told her calmly, "I will be living in the staff dormitories." The tone of her voice implied that she didn't like that arrangement and would rather be living with Wataru, but there were still rules. No matter. It was just a matter of time before she could be alone with her beloved Goshujin-sama and do 'many, many things with him'.

"Ruby-san, you're drooling," Yukari pointed out.

"Oh, am I?" Ruby blinked and then wiped the drool away from the corner of her mouth with a napkin. "I'm sorry."

Mizore, Moka and Kurumu all glared at Ruby. Here was a woman who owed Wataru her life. He had saved her, given her a new lease of life. Sure, Wataru treated her like a good friend but he had treated them the same way before and look what happened later. They became lovers. Ruby might try to achieve the same goal as well and she was very attractive. Wataru would not be able to resist if Ruby came onto him.


KAMEN RIDER CHROME: And so another chapter comes to a close, finally. Next we have the Curry Episode. I know some may not like it but I want to do a chapter focusing on Mizore. It seems like a fitting story for her plus Rey-Kivat deserves some face time. Also, I would like to thank Ten-Faced Paladin again for his assistance.
