DISCLAIMERS: I do not owe YnM! Matsushita-sensei owes them! I only owe Ayumi-chan!

EVE ARC 4: SORRISO

Tsuzuki Asato, Kurosaki Hisoka and Yukata Watari were all dumbfounded, Hasegawa Ayumi just smiled and that's not all, her eyes, they were no longer gray but bright blue. Tsuzuki touched her face and asked, "Ayumi-chan?"

"Hai! It's me Tsuzuki-san!" Ayumi exclaimed smiling sweetly at him. Hisoka shook his head and thought, "Impossible! This is impossible, how the hell she got emotions that fast? She just synchronized with Tsuzuki!"

"I don't understand it either Hisoka-kun but I have emotions now! My stoned heart is broken, all thanks to Tsuzuki-san!" Ayumi telepathically replied to Hisoka. Hisoka grabbed Ayumi by the shoulder and demanded, "BUT HOW? You just saw his thoughts, his feelings, his past! HOW?"

Ayumi stared at Hisoka and exclaimed putting her hand at Hisoka's cheek, "I told you, I don't know... somehow, I absorbed those feelings that's why, now... I have them!" Hisoka jerked off, he felt the strong gush of emotions coming from Ayumi, he angrily exclaimed, "Don't touch me!"

"Calm down boy!" Watari exclaimed getting hold of Hisoka. Tsuzuki broke into his cheerfulness crying, "YUKATTA! AYUMI-CHAN HAS EMOTIONS!" with that he hugged the young girl. Hasegawa Ayumi was surprised by it, could only blush. Tsuzuki's cries sent Tatsumi, Terazuma, Wakaba and Chief Konoe to the infirmary.

Terazumi grumpily demanded, "What's going in here Tsuzuki?" when he saw Ayumi smiling at him, he froze and freaked out, "SHE'S SMILING!" he cried looking horrified. "SUGOI! That's good!" Wakaba exclaimed hugging Ayumi. Ayumi replied, "Yes Wakaba-chan, I do have emotions now"

Chief Konoe smiled and said, "Well done Tsuzuki, you did a great job!" Tatsumi approached Ayumi and exclaimed, "Congratulations Ayumi-san!" Ayumi bowed his head and said, "Arigato Tatsumi-san"

Tsuzuki wrapped his arms around Ayumi and sweetly cuddled the girl saying, "I knew that what I did would help you Ayumi-chan!" Ayumi faced Tsuzuki and said, "Hai! Because of you all what Sister Mary thought me all came back! Thank you Tsuzuki, for sharing your emotions to me!" with that she hugged Tsuzuki.

"Ayumi now had emotions... emotions... those emotions... those emotions will take Tsuzuki away, away from me!" Hisoka thought, tears building in his eyes. He swallowed hard trying to compress the tears. He nearly choked on his words but didn't. "Umm... Tsuzuki, Hasegawa-san, it's time to go to Earth" Hisoka replied looking down. Ayumi broke away from Tsuzuki and exclaimed, "Oh yes! The mysterious disappearances at St. Mikhael!"

Chief Konoe nod his head and exclaimed, "Better get going to it!

EARTH (ST. MIKHAEL)

Hisoka, Tsuzuki and Ayumi hurriedly went towards the girl's restroom. The body of Yujin and the girl
was found. "Sumimasen! Let us through please!" Tsuzuki exclaimed squirming his way inside. As he got inside, he turned
his back at once at the sight he saw.

"What's wrong Tsuzuki?" Hisoka asked and gasped. In front of them, are the two burned bodies of Yujin and the girl. Their expressions shows they were burned alive. A girl exclaimed, "How frightening! I think I won't be able to pee in here anymore!"

"What do you mean? I might quit this school! I don't want to be the next one to die!" a boy exclaimed looking terrified. Ayumi kneeled down to take a closer look at the bodies. Their skins were torched terribly. "Tsuzuki-san... please tell all the students to leave, I will synchronize with the bodies to see what happened to them" Ayumi telepathically told Tsuzuki.

Tsuzuki nod his head and exclaimed, "Minna-san, everyone back to your rooms, I will be the one to report
this matter to the principal!" The students then disappeared one by one. When they are all gone, Ayumi synchronized with one
of the body.

Intense black fire, screams of two people being burned alive

An evil laughter

The whole place is blazing hot

A shadowy figure appeared behind the black fire.

It has cold, evil, gleaming red eyes

"IGNEM! IGNEM!" the figure exclaimed then it laughed evilly

Ayumi took her hand off the body and turned to Hisoka. "Take a look Hisoka-kun and tell me what you think." Ayumi replied with that she placed her hands on Hisoka's hand and made him see what he saw. Hisoka screamed on what he saw, he was gasping for air when it was finished. Tsuzuki asked, "What? What did you saw?"

Hisoka gulped and exclaimed, "These students, were taken to place where there is black fire and were burned alive by this shadowy figure with gleaming red eyes. Our enemy is not human Tsuzuki! It's a demon!" Ayumi nod her head and said, "A demon who uses Black Fire, I don't know what is his purpose of why is he doing this, but what he is doing is really evil!" Hisoka looked at Ayumi and was surprised that he face shows anger, even her tone is anger.

"Don't be surprised anymore Kurosaki! She now has emotions" Hisoka told himself taking deep breaths. Tsuzuki frowned and said, "I'll contact Tatsumi and ask if Watari can help us with this, you two go back to your rooms." Ayumi nod her head, she then extend her hand to Hisoka and asked, "Need help Hisoka-kun?"

Hisoka frowned and snapped, "No, I don't! I'm not a child that need to be guided!" with that he brushed pass Ayumi and Tsuzuki. Tsuzuki shook his head and exclaimed, "Gomen ne Ayumi-chan, he's not that really grouchy." Ayumi smiled and said, "Daijoubu Tsuzuki-san!" with that she left.

"Anger... jealousy... why is Hisoka-kun feeling this?" Ayumi wondered as she got back to class.

MEIFU (JuOhCho, Shokan Division)

CHIEF KONOE'S OFFICE

Tatsumi frowned upon reading Tsuzuki's message. He showed it to Chief Konoe who gasped after reading this. "I knew it would be a demon" Chief Konoe exclaimed nervously. Tatsumi nod his head and said, "We must pull Tsuzuki, Kurosaki and Hasegawa out of this case! This case is for the Demon Exterminator Division not ours!"

Chief Konoe nod his head and exclaimed, "I know that, but Tsuzuki can handle this, he is the best and
the most powerful shinigami around here! Among us, he is the only one who can control the four sacred shinigami of Gensoukai!"

Tatsumi slammed his fist on Chief Konoe's desk and exclaimed, "Kacho! You know ever since Tsuzuki defeated Saaga, all demons in the Makai world want Tsuzuki dead! I'm 100 sure that the demon in this case is after Tsuzuki! I am not having Tsuzuki in peril!"

"He won't be in peril Tatsumi!" Chief Konoe exclaimed sternly. He then looked at the paper and said, "Tsuzuki wants Watari's help, send Watari at once!" Tatsumi frowned and said, "All right I'll send Watari but if ever Tsuzuki gets in danger, with or without
your permission I'll ask the Demon Exterminators Division to take over the case plus I'll make sure Enma Daoih learns about getting his precious one into big trouble!" with that Tatsumi stormed out of the office.

"Tatsumi... what a frightening person... " Chief Konoe thought heaving a big sigh.

EARTH (ST. MIKHAEL)

CAFETERIA

"I never thought your eyes were blue Ayumi!" Seira replied looking into Ayumi's eyes. Ayumi grinned and said, "My eyes are gray when I want to scare people off!" Meiko raised her eyebrow and asked, "You mean you can change your eye color?" Ayumi nod her head and exclaimed, "Thanks to the power of contact lenses!" the three girls laugh.

"Hmph. She now can laugh with these people, how surprising!" Hisoka thought mockingly. Meiko noticed Hisoka talking with some of the boys and replied, "Kurosaki-san is incredibly cute isn't he?" Seira nod her head in agreement. "Hisoka-kun is sooo adorable! He is new but he's already a heartthrob here!"

Ayumi just nod her head and thought, "Hisoka is cute, but he's too grumpy!"

"I've read that!" Hisoka exclaimed looking at Ayumi. Ayumi blushed and replied, "He he he he! Just kidding Hisoka-kun" Hisoka raised an eyebrow and replied, "Kid my ass!"

Seira turned to Ayumi and said, "You and Hisoka-kun went to the same school before transferring here right?" Ayumi nod her head. "Do you have his phone number?" Meiko asked. "No, Hisoka-kun and I are not that close, he's rather anti-sociable." Ayumi answered looking at Hisoka. Hisoka frowned and said, "I'm not anti-sociable!"

"Yes you are! You don't like speaking and talking to people" Ayumi replied giving the green-eyed shinigami a look. Hisoka shrugged his shoulders and said, "I only talk to people I like." Ayumi sighed and said, "I bet, I'm one who those people you don't like."

"How did you figure it out?" Hisoka asked. He's being frank and he's enjoying it. "I'm an empath too you know and I felt it." Ayumi replied sadly. "Naze Hisoka-kun? Why don't you like me? Why do you hate me Hisoka-kun?" Ayumi asked giving
Hisoka a very sad gaze. Hisoka gritted his teeth and replied, "Because... because... because..."

Then suddenly, Ayumi sensed it, the evil presence. "Hisoka-kun! It's the enemy!" with that she rushed towards the school ground. Hisoka followed behind her. "Tsuzuki!" Hisoka exclaimed inside his mind. Tsuzuki meanwhile hurriedly left the clinic to join Hisoka and Ayumi.

IN THE SCHOOL GROUNDS

Ayumi halted as she noticed that the school ground is in suspended animation. She then took out a fuda and chanted, "Heavenly powers! UNDO!"

In an instant, the suspended animation was broken and scream of help was heard. A student was being taken away by a shadowy mass. Tsuzuki appeared, bearing a fuda, he placed the fuda on the shadowy mass and cried, "RELEASE!"

The shadowy mass unwrapped the girl. Hisoka rushed over catching the girl. "Protect her Hisoka!" Tsuzuki ordered. Hisoka nod his head and set up a barrier. The shadowy mass attacked, Tsuzuki cried, "INFLATUS" there was a loud explosion. Ayumi approached Tsuzuki and exclaimed, "Daijoubu ka Tsuzuki-san?" Tsuzuki nod his head.

"TSUZUKI!" Hisoka cried clutching the girl close to him. The shadowy mass in now attacking them. Because of the barrier, the shadowy mass can't get through. Then a crack appeared on the barrier. Tsuzuki cried, "CHIGAU!" with that he rushed at the shadowy mass. The shadowy mass let out wind like tentacles and enveloped Tsuzuki. "TSUZUKI!" Hisoka cried.

"I will take you instead shinigami!" a voice exclaimed. The voice came from the shadowy mass. Tsuzuki tried to break free but can't. Ayumi screamed, "TSUZUKI-SAN!" then her blue eyes turned gray, and a strong psychic ki came out of
Ayumi. She took out a fuda and chanted, "Heavenly powers, I the maiden of the Nacht! Give thee the powers! Grant me you divine protection!"

She then trusted the fuda at the shadowy mass and cried, "ATRUM FLATUS!" there was a blinding light and a strong explosion. Tsuzuki was released from the shadowy mass. Hisoka and the girl were safe, the shadowy mass disappeared leaving a trail of evil laughter.

"Hisoka!" Tsuzuki exclaimed rushing towards Hisoka. "I'm fine, how about you?" Hisoka asked. Tsuzuki smiled and said, "Not a scratch! Thanks to Ayumi-chan, I'm okay and you two are safe!" He then turned around and gasped, Ayumi lay on the floor unconscious.
