Yo readers! Love ya'll so much, sorry it took so long forgot how to add another chapter _. Ya I know that's really sad. But I have a question for you. Do I keep the story at this current part of the timeline or skip ahead to where I already have several chapters written? And I mean ahead by all the way to the Impure King arc. I'll be making my decision by the comments so if you was more chapters...Comment! hehe I love being the arrogant writer who can say whatever he wants to the readers. um what? lol
"Congratulations!" The voice broke the horrifying aura surrounding Rin as the lights flickered back on. Faust the principle stood in the middle of the room where he had jumped down from the ceiling. "The two students Shiemi and Rin have passed the test!"
"What? What test? We were getting punished for arguing in class" Shiemi said confused. Her kimono was drenched with sweat but she was still awake enough to talk.
"Why the test for Esquire of course! The other students haven't turned in their forms so they can't be graded based on their performances. So we'll conduct another test to see if they qualify for esquire." Mr. Faust said. Elbowing Rin he muttered to him, "You may be keeping you flames in check but try your strength. That was not natural what you did and even a student would know that."
Moving the students towards their dorms he silenced all of their questions, he patted Shiemi on the head and pulled out candy bars out of his hat and gave them to the students. "Just enjoy the fact that two of the students in this class passed in the shortest time period in ten years!" he chuckled, "It seems we have a monster on our hands here." With that the class was guided to their rooms and left with instructions at what time class was the next morning. Yukio watched Rin uneasily as the older brother slept like a baby wearing the bloodstained clothes. Rin had always been an aggressive fighter, but this was taking it to a new level. When Yukio finally fell asleep he slept fitfully, dreaming about the past.
Yukio and Rin were twelve at the time; Rin was as usual out of the classroom first. Yukio slowly packed up his school books. Throughout class he had been distracted by the Coal Tar that was swarming around two of the students. He didn't remember their names but he knew of their reputation of being bullies. The dream skipped ahead. Pain exploding as the boys fists collided with Yukio's nose. His hair being pulled causing his head to slam into the desk. Where were the teachers? His arms being pulled behind him as the other boy punched him in the stomach repeatedly. A voice broke through the pain, "Hey Yukio what's taken so long? Let go of him!" Rin's voice was happy at first then changed to surprise. Rin ran across the room sending a straight punch into the first bully. The boy fell without a sound. The Coal Tar became agitated and swarmed faster around the room before closing in on Rin. They spun around him so fast that it looked like he was a ghost rippling in the wind. Rin, unable to see them pointed a finger at Yukio's attacker, who was still holding his arms back. "Let him go if you want to leave with only a few broken bones dog." Rin's voice was cold, he was only a step away from Yukio and seemed bigger than he really was. "Hey man we we're just teaching him to keep his faggot eyes to himself, se-in him staring at us gives me the creeps". Rin slid closer to the fellow student his voice growing softer, "He creeps you out does he? He makes you piss yourself? Well allow me to show you fear. It's actually quite healthy for you isn't it?"
When Shuro showed up to pick him up and take him home Rin had finally calmed down and the coal tars had left him. If Yukio didn't have bruises on him ribs and face it he would have thought it was his imagination. Rin acted like a different person, cheerful until Shuro showed up. The two boys were taken to the hospital one with a broken arm while the other had coward carved into his forehead with a pencil tip. The pencil was still speared through his hand while the paramedics tried to stop the bleed flowing from his head. "Rin, why did you do it?" Shuro asked. "You've been in enough fights so I know you could have not broken that boys arm, let alone carve coward into that poor boys face!"
The sun was going down and it was a hot humid day but Yukio didn't care he ran on ahead and was in the monetary before he heard Rins answer. A sudden drop in temperature and a cold wind buffeting Shuro started while Rin slowed to a stop and turned to face Shuro. Rins face was pulled back his eyes bulging, glowing red and teeth pointed was what Shuro saw, not his beloved son. "Who are you to ask us questions? An exorcist who kills demons raising one as his own? You're a threat nothing more Paladin. It's been us who've been protecting the prince all these years, training his instincts. Oh I wouldn't worry about exorcising us from Rin right now; we'll go on our own today. But you better hurry home Rins heart is beating so loud every demon in the city can hear it. They now the princes heart in the building." After saying that Rin collapsed and several ghost like images shot out of him and scattered. Shuro threw Rin over his shoulders and ran to the monestary. They demons had spoken the truth about the attack but the monastery stood strong and the dissolving demons were all that remained of the attack.
