I do not own Rosario + Vampire. This is my original fan fiction story based on the manga series created by Akihisa Ikeda. Its where the story continues on in my heart from where Akihisa Ikeda chose to end his story of Tsukune Aono and Moka Akashiya. I make no money from this in any way. This is just for fun and to increase my writing and story telling skills. I hope you are enjoying this story as much as I am in writing it. I would also like to thank you all for the positive reviews I've been getting as well as the favorites and follows on this story. THANK YOU!

Chapter 30

Signing of The Yokai Rights Act.

/\^^/\

The Prime Minister handed Tsukune the bill they were about to sign as he began shaking the hands of everyone that had come with the young man. Tsukune, Moka and Issa taking the few moments to thoroughly read through the bill with their vampire eyes and intelligence. All three were astounded by the bill in their hands. It was everything they had hoped for, it was a bill that insured everyone's rights and safety, yokai and human alike. By the time the Prime Minister had made back over to them they were all smiling as Tsukune handed the bill back to The prime Minister while shaking his hand. Then the Prime Minister walked up to the podium and looked around at the gathered press as well as the civilians gathered behind them. He noticed the news reporter from Monster Vision Tv and smiled at her warmly.

"Before I begin I would like to take a moment to welcome the newest addition to the journalistic pool of Japan. Welcome Monster Vision Tv, I am honored you were able to come so that the entire yokai realm could witness this historic event. And I look forward to seeing more of your reporters covering news events throughout Japan in the future. I have here your official press pass badge as well as an operating license for Monster Vision Tv to lease and or purchase buildings for substations throughout Japan. Enabling your news reporters to get to the news scenes quickly, to catch the news as it unfolds. Would you please come up here and receive these Ms… um… Ms. Brightfire." Prime Minister Toranaga said in greeting with Tsukune helping him with her name as he stood beside him.

Sara Brightfire was so moved and overjoyed by the extremely warm welcome she and M.V.T. were receiving. She lost control of her human disguise as she excitably made her way up to the podium. Her long fox ears and bushy nine tails suddenly appearing, letting everyone know she was a kitsune. Both Tsukune and Toranaga merely chuckled as the excited kitsune finally made it to the podium.

"You know what, I think Ms. Brightfire has the right idea. Even if she didn't do it on purpose. I think it's about time that we start getting used to seeing the uniqueness and beauty of our yokai bretheren. So if the yokai present here are comfortable with revealing their true appearance rather than hiding behind a disguise. In fact I would encourage you to feel free to do so wherever you are. You have the right to be proud of who you are and what you are. For today is the day Japan acknowledges your rights! And your rights are fully protected and enforced by the law just like every other citizen." Prime Minister said as he handed Ms. Brightfire her press pass and a folder for her to give to her employers.

At this Tsukune and Moka removed their rosaries, revealing their true form and even using their wealth of power to bring forth their wings. Ruby, Yukari and the Sendo's took out their wands with Ruby also calling forth her wings. Issa, Kalua and Aqua removed thier rosaries as well while Kokoa stirred her aura causing her eyes to turn red and her fangs to grow. Kyoko also removed hers as she stood next to her parents. Mizore frosted over with her hands becoming ice claws while Yukio transformed into his true appearance of a frost drage. (thankful he was wearing the trench and boots The Almighty gave them at Nomen Tuum.) Kurumu revealed her wings, tail and horns while Gabe transformed into his golden armored angelic form radiating a Holy light. Gin took off his jacket, shoes and socks before loosening his belt and transformed into a werewolf. San let her wings come forth while writing I'm a Siren, he's an Angel with an arrow pointing to her right towards Gabe as she held up the sign. An attractive reporter from TBN Tokyo revealed herself to be a Lamia. And a girl in the crowd with her boyfriend looked at him nervously before revealing herself to be a Nekomusume, only to be surprised when her boyfriend had a nosebleed cause he thought she was so cute.

Roughly 25% of all the yokai living in Japan revealed themselves as they watched the Prime Ministers news conference on various tv's throughout the nation.

"Now before I and Mr. Aono sign this bill in my hand here, making it officially law. I have a title to bestow upon perhaps the noblest soul I've ever met. By the power vested in me by the great people of Japan along with the power of the Emperor of Japan. I Hereby declare and bestow upon Tsukune Aono the title of a Lord within the nation of Japan. With all rights and privileges due to his station. Including retainers of his choosing for enforcing the peace, exacting judgment on any and all yokai that threaten the peace. Investigating any and all attacks made upon yokai living peacefully in Japan as well as investigating discrimination claims against yokai. And let me say this before I continue. The Emperor himself has said that attacks and discrimination charges will be thoroughly investigated and harshly punished." Prime Minister Toranaga said in a serious voice.

I also have Imperial Medals of Valor to present for unwavering bravery and steadfast resolve that saved countless lives during the Alucard event. When I call your names please step forward. Moka Akashiya, … Tsukune Aono, … Kurumu Kurono, … Gin Morioka, … Kokoa Shuzen, … Ruby Tojo, ... San Otonashi, … Mizore Shirayuki, … Yukari Sendo. I would now also like to present on the behalf of a grateful nation the Medal of Honor along with the nations flag to Lord Issa Shuzen. The husband of the late Dark Lord Akasha Bloodriver who along with two other Dark Lords sacrificed their lives to rid the world of the threat of Alucard once and for all. I also have Medals and flags for Dark Lords Tohofuhai Huang and Tenmei Mikogami that I'll entrust Tsukune Aono to seeing that they are delivered to the proper families." Prime Minister Toranaga said.

"I'll see that the Huang family receive theirs, as for Mikogami's, we'll have a display case made and mounted at Yokai Academy in his honor." Tsukune said as he received them.

"Well then Lord Aono, I think the yokai rights act has waited long enough. Shall we now sign it into law?" The Prime Minister said lightheartedly with a warm smile as he held a pen out for Tsukune.

"Yes it has, lets make it law!" Tsukune said as he took the pen and signed it before affixing his personal stamp and a stamp of the Junsui Crest beside it. A moment later they were shaking hands while holding the bill up before the cameras. Both of them saying loudly over the cheering crowd. "IT IS LAW!"

I'm sure many of you are wondering what all is inside this bill. For that I'll let Lord Aono take the podium. Lord Aono." Prime Minister Toranaga said bowing to Tsukune.

"Thank you Prime Minister. As many of you have heard as you were either called to attend this ground breaking historic news conference. Or you heard about it from the various tv stations including Monster Vision Tv for those now watching in the yokai realm. My fiance and I were invited to the Emperors Palace to meet with the Prime Minister Akihito Toranaga along with the chief executive officer of the Imperial Department of Paranormal Sciences Taka Hagimora. As well as the chief inspector of the Imperial Guard Ikki Tushanari. Our meeting was being broadcast and teletyped directly to both the Emperor himself as well as the Senate. They showed me a rough draft of a bill that while had many good parts within it, also had some that were very disturbing when you look under the seemingly innocent wording. It was actually just a bit of a short sighted desire from the military leaders. The implications of that desire would have brought the world nations down upon us. It would have thrown us into a war Japan would not have survived. They were asking for all Yokai to serve in the regular military for a 5 year minimum. And while many yokai would be more than happy to do just that if not make a carrier out of it that they could be proud of. It would be tipping the delicate balance of power among the nations of the world. Which is something we cannot allow. However any yokai that would like to serve in some sort of military are more than encouraged to enlist with the national guard. While you can't be sent overseas as a military strike force. You will become a strong warning to any military force that would want to invade our beautiful homeland. You would also be extremely valuable assets for search and rescue missions after a natural disaster or terrorist attack. I also recommend and encourage many of you to think about police work as a way to serve the people of this nation, yokai and human alike. I believe it was the Captain of the Tokyo swat division that said he wished that he had Moka and myself on his payroll after the hostage crisis a few days ago. As you can see there are many humans that see just how valuable a yokai's natural talents can be. But that can also cause problems that this bill addresses. This bill ensures that yokai will not be mistreated or taken advantage of in some way that would or could cause the yokai to be treated like lesser citizens. Since many yokai already living among us in secret are hard working tax payers that deserve the same respect and protection as everyone else. After seeing what Fairy Tale did to 'convince' several communities of yokai to support them both terms of labor and money. You'd understand the precautions if you'd seen it.

Imagine whole villages held hostage under threat of a massacre if they didn't receive all the precious metals and gems found in the villages mines… Or just to make a few of the local mages and scientists come up with weapons or ways to control yokai against their will. Several peaceful villages that refused to join Fairy Tale were wiped out… slaughtered down to the last child. That must never happen again! But likewise yokai attacks on humans cannot be allowed or left unpunished either. In order for coexistence to work both human and yokai must be protected equally with strong punishments for violations to each others basic rights protected by the law. Believe me this bill has just that written in it and you don't want the kind of punishments that are written in here. There were also concerns over what kind of qualifications would be to be met for unrestricted and unsupervised movement of yokai among the general populace. As well as how do we start breaking down the barriers of fear that have divided humans and yokai for so long. How do we get humans used to seeing and meeting yokai in their true form and how do we get yokai used to interacting and building relationships of trust with humans, helping them to adjust to living in close quarters with them. We came up with a solution for both. If the yokai grew up in the human world and went to human schools with no serious violent episodes in their record or if they've lived in the human world for 5 years or more with no serious criminal or violent crimes they should be given an automatic unrestricted and unsupervised qualification. Other than that be a yokai accademy graduate and have at least a 1 year home/roommate stay with a human volunteer before they can get a work release. If we open a yokai/human university and give a tuition discount for human volunteers willing to sign a waiver and be responsible for helping the yokai assigned to them adjust to living with humans not just hiding among them. As well as to remind them of the rules when they start to let their instincts take over. The volunteers would first spend a semester at yokai accademy where they will be in a class of senior's looking to go to college and further their education. The semester would be a classes going over all the rules and punishments for breaking the rules as well as human customs and a class for the humans to learn yokai customs and taboos. I don't know how many times I accidentally offended one and nearly got killed because of it lol. They would be under the protection of volunteers from some of the vampire clans that would like to raise their family status among the vampire nobility.

After they graduate from the university with no serious problems they should be well adjusted to living with humans so restrictions then would be unwarranted. Sexual relations between them should be discouraged unless they've lived together for at least six months to a year and the feeling is mutual between the two. As for policing the project… a Human agent of the government project in charge of a team of yokai consisting of at least 1 vampire, 1 werewolf, a powerful witch or warlock along with a yokai that can fly like a siren or succubus preferred as both can subdue suspected subjects nonviolently with either a lullaby or a charm and yet also be able to respond with violence if it is absolutely necessary. I know there's probably a few succubi that would rather have a respectable job rather than working the water trade. And all applicants for the policing job. Would have to pass a background check from both sides, human as well as the yokai world.

As for yokai wanting to do manual labor instead of going to a university we'll be looking at highly recommended construction and or skilled manual job companies out there with a great customer satisfaction and quality and safety inspection records. That would have some employees willing to teach trade school classes at yokai academy. Along with having some human employee's willing to take them in after they graduate, with the incentive of being tax exempt for the 2 year minimum required homestay. The employers incentive will be receiving more consideration for Government contracts and larger tax breaks than what come with just being willing to hire yokai, for employers willing to pay half the teachers pay at the trade school. Which would also be a screening process for that company to hire the best fitting yokai for their company. Other companies can only receive tax breaks for hiring and providing employee's willing to house them for at least 2 years. All of that is in this bill. Some of the parts wont be ready for a while as the trade school at Yokai Academy as well as a human dorm building will need to be built first. Which also brings up something else that's not in this bill but I know there will be question addressed to me from the students, staff and board of directors at Yokai Academy. I know that the board wants me to bring in more humans to become students there at Yokai Academy. After the human dormitories are built along with the trade school buildings. I will consider accepting transfers for seniors only. They and their family will have to take a guided tour of the school, meet with the school staff and go through an interview process where all the pro's and con's of a human attending Yokai Academy at this time period. With one of the pro's being they would be qualified for the homestay project. But while every precaution will be made for their safety, it is by no means a guaranty. Younger yokai just like younger humans tend to react to perceived offenses, often before they think. After all Yokai Academy is a school for monsters and monsters will be monsters from time to time." Tsukune said seriously in a lighthearted way.

Throughout Japan and the yokai realm there was a loud round of applause. Fears and concerns were covered. Ways to afford a higher education for some were seeing a door of opportunity about to open for them. Company's and Businesses of all kinds were looking forward to examining the tax breaks they could receive along with possible grants. While all of the succubi working the water trade were flattered that Tsukune had shown concern for them. Only a few of them were seriously considering leaving the water trade. The rest of them liked being able to feed off all the lust the customers brought with them. Yokai throughout the realms were gasping with wide smiles. They couldn't believe how welcoming the bill had sounded to them as they were expecting requirements that would leave them as lower citizens for decades. Before they could reach the status of being seen as equals, in the eyes of the law.

Ageha Kurono saw everything as a reason to through a huge party as not only was the bill everything they could have ever dreamed. Her baby was publicly recognized as a hero to the world.

Kiria Yoshi watched the news with a snarl on his face. His eyes stared at the screen with seething hatred. What angered him the most was he realized as he was watching and listening to the once human scum that he hated with a passion. Was that once again Tsukune Aono was destroying everything he had been working so hard to build. Many of his troops started to go awol, deserting Fairy Tail like rats abandoning a sinking ship. And now after his display of power against a sizable force of his troops in the human world. Which made continued recruiting hard enough… that bill that they just passed into law… Will make recruiting yokai into Fairy Tail all but impossible. He would never be able to recruit the kind of numbers needed to not only kill Tsukune Aono and his bratty friends. He wouldn't have the numbers to strike fear into the very hearts of man to start a war.

It was Tsukune Aono and his friends that had brought Fairy Tail down when it was at it's peak of power. 60,000 strong that in less than 3 months was reduced to 10,000 scattered troops. It was Tsukune Aono and his friends that brought down the Floating Garden where the cream of the crop, the very elect members of Fairy Tail was going to safely watch the world burn as they controlled Alucard from within it's floating walls. And it was Tsukune Aono and his friends who with the help of the late Dark Lords vanquished Alucard once and for all. And as word spread that Fairy Tail had been defeated by a mere teenager and that the head of Fairy Tail was eaten by Alucard because they were deluded enough to believe they could ever control him. The numbers fell to less that 500 loyal troops. It had taken him over a year to silently bring the numbers up to 3500 troops. After the fiasco that was The Yokai Rights Act that Tsukune Aono and that Human signed into law… He would consider himself lucky if he still had the 500 loyal troops he discovered remaining true after the whole Alucard disaster.

Sitting beside him with the same seething rage burning in is eyes was Kuyo, his most trusted General. The only one who probably hates Tsukune Aono more than he did.
