OK so this is the next chapter.

Thank you all for the reviews/favorites/follows

So this is a nice little family chapter. Um I'm doing this because of reasons, one being because a guest had mentioned it earlier, two I need to do some nice family stuff after what my family just went through, and because I need to draw stuff out.

Onto the chapter!

The weekend had sadly come to an end meaning it was time to go back to school. Yukio didn't really mind this but Rin did. This meant he had to go back to school, back to the bullies that picked on him. Rin got dressed as slowly as he could, at least until he heard Yukio yell at him that he was going to be late for his ride to school.

The eight-year-old grumbled before running down the stairs and into the kitchen where Yukio was waiting for him.

"Are you ready to go?" Yukio asked as he grabbed the lunches Rin had made last night, giving one to his brother.

"Do I have to go?" Rin whined as he took the lunch but stopped when he got a look from Yukio.

"Yes," Yukio said. "You learn things at school. Now come on." He began ushering his brother out the door. Rin reluctantly followed his brother's lead and was about to complain even more when he caught sight of his ride.

"Is that a limo!?" Rin exclaimed as he stared at the pink vehicle before him. He looked to Yukio for the answer and got a nod of a head in return. Rin looked back at the limo and then frowned. "Why is it pink?"

"Why can't it be pink, my dear child?" A familiar voice spoke up. Rin jumped before turning to face the speaker and found a familiar clown-dressed man before him.

"Hello sir Pheles." Yukio greeted with a nod of his head.

"And good morning to you, Mr. Okumura. You should get a move on so you aren't late for school, don't you think?" Mephisto asked with a smirk. "I'll get your brother to school like promised."

"Of course." Yukio said, but Rin though there was anger in his brother's voice before he turned to look down at him. "Now, Rin, I want you to behave at school for me, alright? Please, don't get into any fights, ok?"

Rin was going to object, to point out it was never his fault but from the look his brother was giving him, he sighed and mumbled fine. Yukio gave another nod before giving one last look to Mephisto and walking away.

Rin watched his brother walk away with a frown. He never understood why his brother and father never bothered to listen to him when he tried to explain and that fact made him sad.

"Well, come on, we don't want to be late!" Mephisto's voice called to the boy as he opened the door to the limo.

"Ok." Rin mumbled before turning and entering the vehicle. His frown was soon replaced with a look of awe when he looked around the limo. He had never been inside of one before and to him this was the greatest thing ever.

"Woah!" Rin breathed as he crawled across the seats to look around.

"Could you please not crawl on the seats, I'd rather keep the leather clean." Mephisto said as he climbed in with the boy.

Rin huffed but sat down anyway and watched Mephisto as the car began to take off. They sat in silence for a while more before Mephisto finally wanted to know why the boy was staring at him.

"Yes?" He asked, turning to the boy.

"Why are you taking me to school?" Rin asked.

"Because your father asked me to." Mephisto replied giving the boy a smile. "Am I not allowed to do something nice for you and your father?"

"If you were nice you would take me away from school." Rin offered only to get a laugh in reply.

"That was a good attempt but I promised to help look after you while you stayed at my school." Rin huffed again in response, upset he failed at trying to convince the other. Deciding to give Mephisto the silent treatment, Rin stared out the window with his arms crossed. He, in a way, knew it was silly of him to pout over going to school but he couldn't help it.

It wasn't long before they reached the school and the limo stopped. Mephisto opened the door for the eight-year-old and waved to him as he walked out. Rin took a deep breath and looked around. All around him, other students were staring at him in shock and confusion, each whispering among themselves. Rin decided to ignore them to the best of his ability and trudged toward the entrance of the school.

None of the teachers had questioned him, apparently having been informed about how he would be dropped off and picked up so there would be no questions, and just joined the kids in watching him enter the school. He attempted to get through the day but he knew they were all whispering about him, questioning why he had been dropped off in a pink limo. He knew it wouldn't be long before more rumors spread about him, but Rin just tried in all his hardest to ignore the others.

At recess he was met with familiar taunts and attacks, added with some teasing remarks about why he had been dropped off by the pink limo. He fought back just as always, but that only seemed to fuel the fire of the attacks.

By the end of the day, Rin was just done with it all and wanted to go home and sleep. Mephisto had asked him about his day and Rin had answered with a simple fine. However, that didn't stop Yukio from seeing the few scraps on his hands when he got home.

"Did you get into another fight!?" Yukio exclaimed.

"It's not my fault!" Rin exclaimed. "They were picking on me! They were calling me names and stuff!"

"That doesn't mean you respond with violence! Control yourself Rin! And report them!"

"But no one listens to me!" Rin shouted. "Then what do I do?! Just let them pick on me!?"

"Just…" Yukio sighed. "Just go to your room." Rin gave a shout at him and stomped up the stairs to his room.

They next day was similar, only without the fight. Apparently Yukio didn't even want to talk to him that day, only talking enough to make sure he was taking care of himself. It seemed like the week would continue like that, the taunts and comments getting worse and there would be days that Rin did fight back and other times he didn't, it depended on the comments. Yukio was still upset when he came home from a fight but it wasn't until the last day of the week that Rin was finally fed up.

It had been the end of the day and he was waiting for Mephisto to come and pick him up when he heard footsteps coming up behind him. Turning around, Rin was met with three of the bullies in front of him, the one at the front being Reiji Shiratori. He was only a year older than Rin was but he had fun picking on him.

His brown eyes gleamed with ill-will as he stared down at Rin.

"What do you want Shiratori?" Rin asked as he met the eyes of one of his bullies.

"I just was coming to see if your new family picked you up yet." He said with an evil smile.

"I don't have a new family." Rin huffed out, repeating words he had done many times this week.

"Really? Are you sure about that?" He asked. "Because we see that man pick you up all the time in the limo." He said. "Did your dad and brother finally get rid of you because they found out you were a demon? So they sent you away?"

"No! That's not at all true!" Rin growled at the other, taking a step toward him.

"Hey! Stay away demon!" Shiratori cried, backing away. "It was about time they sent you away!"

"Shut up!" Rin shouted at him.

"You're just a demon! A demon that nobody likes!" One of the boys with Shiratori taunted. Suddenly a rock flew through the air and hit Rin on the arm. He turned his watery glare to the other boy who had at some point picked up rocks to throw at him.

"Just go away!" Shiratori cried. "Go away and make everyone happy!" More pebbles and rocks followed that. Rin looked in the direction of the school, hoping a teacher would come out and help him but nothing like that happened. Then he looked at the direction of the road, hoping Yukio or Shiro would come and help him. They didn't.

With a sorrowful cry, Rin ran from his tormenters. He ran toward the park, a place he knew he would be safe. His ears rang with their words and the words from everyone this week. Tears fell from his eyes as he ran, trying to get rid of the ringing in his ears. He swiped away any bugs that floated before his vision. When he finally reached the swing sets he tripped and fell in front of it, scrapping his knees on the ground beneath it. He cried as he knelt there, loud, sad cries that told of his torment.

"You're a demon!"

"Nobody likes you!"

"Go away and make everyone happy!"

"Why do you always have to get into fights!?"

"Run away!"

"AHH! Demon!"

"Control yourself!"

"I just…huh"

"Did your family get rid of you?"

"SHUT UP!" Rin shouted with tears in his eyes as he slammed the ground in a furry. He continued to rage before he grew tried and curled into a small ball with soft whimpers escaping him lips.

Yukio huffed as he ran to the park. He had gotten the call from Mephisto and hand headed out immediately. Apparently Rin decided not to wait for Mephisto this time and had taken off. The director didn't know where he had gone so he had called Yukio who already had a guess of where he had gone.

When he finally saw the park in view, Yukio began to slow down and started calling out for his brother.

"Rin!" He called. "Rin where are you!? Rin!" He continued to call out for his brother and it wasn't until he reached the swings did he find him, curled up in a small trembling ball with his backpack scattered off to the side. Yukio's widened at the sight and ran once more toward his brother.

"Rin! Are you alright!? Rin!" He called as he knelt down beside his trembling brother.

"Go away." Rin mumbled making Yukio freeze in shock.

"Rin?"

"I said go away! Leave me here!" Rin cried into the ground.

"I'm not doing that." Yukio said.

"Why not?"

"Because you're my brother and-"

"It would be better if I just disappeared!" Rin cried letting his crying eyes shoot up to meet Yukio.

"Wha-?Why would you say that!?"

"Because it's true! I'm just a demon and I should go away."

"Never call yourself a demon!" Yukio growled at his brother forcing him up to meet his eyes but Rin struggled away.

"And why not!? It's what everyone calls me at school! All I do is cause trouble! Even to you!" Rin exclaimed, crawling away from his brother.

"What? No, Rin-"

"Why do you even care!?" Rin shouted at Yukio. "You don't even care about how I'm getting bullied at school! Dad probably even gave me to you so he didn't have to put up with me anymore! You don't care about me because I'm a demon!"

Yukio listened with wide eyes as his younger brother continued to shout at him, all of his hurt he felt spilling forth. His heart broke when he realized just how much he never helped his brother, only yelling at him for any trouble he caused and not listening to the other half and doing something about it.

Even now, as he watched Rin shout and scream at him, using both words to hurt Yukio as well as describe himself with the words others had spat at him. Finally unable to take it anymore, Yukio reached forward and pulled Rin into a hug. Rin squirmed and fought against him, but he seemed to hold back a bit, Rin remembering when Shiro had done a similar thing three years ago when he was raging in a classroom.

"Rin, listen to." Yukio spoke. "I'm and so sorry that I ignored you and the people who pick on you. I never meant to hurt you. Dad never meant to hurt you. We both love you so much and we will make it up to you-I will make it up to you. Alright?" Rin had stopped struggling and was no clutching Yukio's coat in his hands, tears spilling from his eyes once again.

"Ni-san?" Rin called out. "Am I a demon?"

"No otuoto. You're not a demon. I don't think you could ever be a demon." Yukio replied holding him even tighter. Rin clenched his eyes tight and held onto Yukio even tighter. As they hugged and Yukio comforted his brother, he couldn't help but think back to when his brother was raging. He remembered seeing the flicker of blue around his brother and the thought made him hold Rin even tighter.

He couldn't let Rin become a demon, he just couldn't.

So that was that. Next chapter I'll start doing stuff with the actually show/manga, hopefully.

Feel free to comment, ask questions, etc.

Until next time! :D
