Howdy everybody. I got the next chap up obviously, though I wanted this up two weeks ago. School work (mainly my junior year project!) got in the way, but at least I'm on mid-winter break, so maybe I'll get the next chapter up a bit fast. Cuz I'm sweet.

Disclaimer: I do not own Rosario+Vampire or The Demonata. I'm writing this for fun due to imagination running rampant. Please don't spoil the fun :(

Grubbs yawned as he shuffled to class. It had been an exhausting week of school and it wasn't because of the workload. It seemed that everyday he had been caught up in some sort of life-threatening situation pertaining to those around him, mainly Moka. The entire first week of school, easy for most, had drained him. Usually that didn't happen when fighting demons, but Grubbs had always fought them within some sort of magical area where his magical strength seemed boundless. Here there was only some magic in the air and he could only go hold his own for so long.

"Grubbs!" shouted Moka from behind, running to catch up with him. Every boy swooned in her presence, but when she reached Grubbs, their admiration had turned to hate for the young Grady boy. Grubbs paid no attention to them, focusing his attention on the beautiful vampire.

"So are you excited for today?" asked Moka. Grubbs thought for a moment, not really sure what she was talking about. "The newspaper club, remember?" The thought clicked as the events from the day before replayed in his head. He felt a bit sad that he had taken another student's life, but the feeling was hollow, already having killed so many of the heartless Demonata. Besides, Grubbs felt safer having the bodybuilder in a ditch than himself. "Yeah sure," said Grubbs as he yawned again.

"Grubbs are you not getting enough rest?" asked Moka in a concerned tone. She started to go on about it was important it was to get enough sleep. It reminded Grubbs of his deceased mother, but he didn't mind, in fact he was actually glad that someone other than Dervish gave a damn about him.

"Grubbs!" someone shouted from behind. As Grubbs turned around to see who it was, all he could glimpse was yellow before he was tackled to the ground, Kurumu smothering him in her giant rack.

"Yahoo! Are you ready for club activities today Grubbs?" asked Kurumu. All she got was a muffled response. Before Grubbs could meet his untimely end the way any guy would probably want it, a gold wash bin was dropped onto Kurumu's head.

"You're going to kill him you big breasted cow!" shouted Yukari as she pushed the injured Kurumu off of Grubbs and pulled him to his feet. After the young magician was off the ground, he and Moka were pulled into a death grip by Yukari.

"I love you two!" Moka's face was red while Grubbs was staring glaring at the sky, wondering when his life got so weird. And since when did eleven year old girls act like this?

----- ----- After classes ----- -----

The school day was over, classes being pretty much the same here as they were in the Vale, Grubbs headed back to his homeroom for the newspaper club with the girls. It's just a newspaper club, how hard can it be? thought Grubbs.

The group stepped into the classroom, which was almost vacant except for Nekonome-sensei sitting at her desk. The group looked around, were they the only ones there?

"Uh, Nekonome...sensei" Grubbs said, almost forgetting the sensei part, "Are we the only ones here?" She smiled as if nothing was wrong. Was she ever sad? thought Grubbs. She always seemed to be smiling.

"Well, of course not!" she said joyfully. "There's one more member here from last year." It was at that moment, someone walked into the room, catching the attention of everyone. He was tall, wearing a headband, an air of cool around him and he had two bouquets of flowers. There was something familiar about him too. Grubbs couldn't remember for the life of him why he felt like he already knew this guy; he'd never met anybody here before.

While Grubbs was deep in thought, the last member started to talk. "Sorry, I'm late on the first day, I had some ... things to attend to." He passed off the bouquets to Moka and Kurumu each, both of them blushing from the gesture. "Name's Morioka Ginei, but feel free to call me Gin." He reached into a pocket on the inside of his school jacket and pulled out a single rose. "For the young lady." Gin said as he handed the rose to Yukari, who giggled in return.

Grubbs saw the gifts Gin gave to the girls. He had to admit, this Gin fellow had some smooth moves.

"Well, it looks like you'll all going to get along really well," said Nekonome-sensei. "I'll leave it to Gin here to explain everything." Before anyone realized it, she walked right out the door.

"So I'm assuming we all know why we're here?" asked Gin as the group sat down, "Well, I'll tell you why! As members of this club, we report about the ongoing activities of the school and publish them." He slammed his hands onto the desk for emphasis, gaining the attention of the others. "Time and time again we'll be putting our lives on the line all for the sake of investigative journalism!"

Wow, he sure is serious about this club thought Grubbs It's kinda motivating.

"Let... me... OUT!" Exploded a voice. He looked around the room quickly, but everyone else was still focused on Gin talking. The older boy was still going on about how important being in this club was, the girls' eyes wide in anticipation.

"Alright then, does anybody have any ideas on what to investigate?" asked Gin. Kurumu was the first to stand up from her seat.

"Well I heard there's been a pervert going around and peeping in the girl's changing rooms but manages to get away every time."

"A serial peeper, huh? Well then, I guess we know what to search for. Let's get out there and search for clues!" said Gin. Since when did this become Scooby Doo? Grubbs thought.

----- -----

One hundred million girls, same story, thought Grubbs. Every girl he talked to had said the same exact thing: Some perv is going around the changing rooms to peep and all they ever see is some mysterious shadow moving too fast to see. The second Grubbs saw this guy, he was gonna punch him in the face for being so difficult to find. Even if his monster knowledge meant crap here at Youkai, he had never heard of anything like this.

"Hey, Grady!" Grubbs looked over to see Gin walking towards him. Grubbs had seen the way he interviewed the other girls. It was all good until it ended with Gin getting slapped in the face, or worse....

"I got a lead on the peeper," said Gin. Wow, thought Grubbs, he managed to get a lead. When he isn't being a flirt, he's actually pretty helpful. "All right then, what's up?"

"Someone's spotted the perv somewhere behind the school," said Gin. "Let's go before he runs off!"

The duo headed off to the school, Gin in lead. If Grubbs could see his face, he would have seen the devious smile.

----- A few minutes later -----

"This is it? This is the dude's secret hideout?" said Grubbs, somewhat disappointed by the location. It's a freakin' empty lot. How can anybody hide here? Thought Grubbs. All I can see is a few barrels by that window.

"Is... this it?" asked Grubbs. Gin just gave him "Are you an idiot?" look.

"No, this isn't the whole thing. I heard that window leads into his hideout. Can you take a look inside?" Gin had his back to him; it made Grubbs a little suspicious.

"All right then, but why don't you do it? You're the taller one." Gin turned his head a bit to face him. "What, you scared?" That made Grubbs' blood boil a bit. He'd done stuff that would have most people too scared to live.

"Don't worry about it. If there's some trap by the window, I'll be here watching your back," said Gin reassuringly, turning his head back the other way.

Watch my back he says, thought Grubbs; He's not even looking over here!

Grubbs shoved one of the barrels near the window under it so he could reach the window. When he did look the window, Grubbs could have sworn his eyes would bulge out of their sockets. He quickly pinched himself to see if it was a dream. OW! Okay this was real.

The Grady child was looking into the girl's changing room. It probably wouldn't have been that bad for one thing...

There was a flash of light behind him, making Grubbs spin around to see Gin holding a camera. "You know you shouldn't be peeking into the girl's changing room, serial peeper?" said Gin, turning the camera around to show a picture of Grubbs looking in the window.

... this was a trap, and he fell in hook, line, and sucker.

"If you keep quiet about this, then I won't tell Moka about this little incident," said Gin, his victory almost in view. Grubbs wouldn't let him have it.

Thinking fast, Grubbs imagined the camera being pulled out of Gin's hands. His magic worked with the mental image and the camera was pulled away from a very surprised Gin. Once Grubbs had the camera, he slammed it into the ground, watching it break into several pieces.

Gin's face was priceless, a comical tear running down his face. He fell to his knees in front of the camera. "My camera..." started Gin. It seemed as though Grubbs had averted a disaster. He jumped down from the barrel and was about to walk off when-

"OH MY GOD! IT'S THE SERIAL PEEPER!"

Grubbs spun around again to see Gin holding the remaining parts of his camera. He gave a final smirk before blurring out of sight. A mere second after Gin's departure, the girls looked outside the window.

"IT'S THE PERVERT! GET HIM!" shouted one of the many angry girls. Grubbs ran off, hoping to avoid the mob that would soon be chasing him. During the run he remembered he could go invisible. After turning another corner, he watched as he faded away due to the magic.

"Hey, where'd he go?" asked the leader of the girls, coming around the corner and passing Grubbs. He held his breath as the mob slowly walked passed him, trying his best to not expose himself. Once the crowd passed, he walked back the way he came. He almost didn't see the next girl lagging on from the previous group.

In a comical fashion, Grubbs jumped back. The girl walked passed him, and once out of earshot, Grubbs released the air he'd been holding in. It had been a horrible mistake; the passing girl spun around fast, glaring at Grubbs.

"There he is!" Grubbs stood still, but the mob began to backtrack and charged at him. He looked at his hands quickly to see that in his haste, he must have undone the spell. Grubbs tried to turn tail and run, but something held him in place.

Grubbs looked on in horror as a shadow was gripping at his legs, immobilizing him. He was helpless as the girls tied him up with some rope and shoved him to the ground.

"What should we do with him?" Grubbs heard the ringleader say. The mob began to talk at once, threats ranging from beating him to neutering him. Ah geez, if they're gonna kill me, at least spare my dignity! thought Grubbs.

Before he realized it, one of the girls kicked him in the face. Luckily, Grubbs saw the oncoming hit and lessened the damage, but it left him feeling numb. The crowd grew more rowdy, fists and feet flying into Grubbs at once. At this rate, I'm screwed! thought Grubbs, his death seeming imminent. He always thought that he'd die for a just cause but instead he got pissed off girls.

His thoughts were cutoff when he felt something hard smash into the back of his head.

----- Some time later -----

Grubbs opened his eyes to the darkness, letting out a groan. Everybody part seemed to hurt, there must have been bruises everywhere. He moved his legs a bit, though it hurt to do so. Grubbs smiled to himself; it seemed they didn't neuter him after all!

"Pathetic!" Screamed a voice that seemed to come from every direction. Grubbs looked around hastily, trying to stand up even if he was still binded by the rope.

"Little girls beating you up? Pathetic!" the voice went on. It was then that Grubbs realized the voice was in his head. Even worse, he knew what the voice was.

"Release me!" commanded the voice. Grubbs was standing up now, stumbling to the light of the window. "N..Never," croaked Grubbs. It felt as if he hadn't had a drink in ages.

"Don't you fool with me! I know how weak you are," said the voice. A fresh wave of pain washed over Grubbs, yet he stayed in control. After all this time, he wasn't going to let this side of him take over...

He fell to the ground again, the darkness taking hold.

----- -----

There was a tapping against some sort of surface. Grubbs ignored it, just trying to enjoy his rest. He felt drained of strength and magic and all he wanted was to sleep.

"Grubbs! Grubbs, are you in there?" said a girl's voice. Wait a minute, he recognized the voice! Immediately, Grubbs eyes snapped open, taking in the surrondings. It was the shed where all the P.E. stuff was stored.

"Kurumu, is that you?" shouted Grubbs, sitting up from the ground.

"Grubbs, you really are in there! Hold on, I'll get you out!" said Kurumu before there was a thumping on the door. After a few moments, the door splinters into pieces, Kurumu walking in with her nails still extended. She quickly ran over to Grubbs and cut the ropes binding him. He just looked at the succubus in mild surprise.

"How'd you find me?" asked Grubbs.

"Well one, some of the girls told me that they locked you up here after beating you up," said Kurumu, "But before that, I saw Gin trying to frame you. I was about to help, but my plan was shot down when the girls came out."

"Well at least you tried," said Grubbs, earning him one of Kurumu's beautiful smiles. But before he could bask in the light that was Kurumu, he remembered something. "Moka! That Gin creep is probably gonna be after her now."

Kurumu frowned a bit. "Can't we just let him have Moka? You got me after all."

"With all the effort he put into trying to get rid of me, I would just let him get Moka. But Moka's my friend. I'm not going to give up on her that easily," said Grubbs. "You know where she's at?"

Kurumu thought for a moment, still frowning, but said "The school roof." Grubbs stepped out of the shed to look around. It was dark out now, the students would probably be in their dorms but it would still take forever to go through the necessary halls to get to the roof. He would just fly up there, but still felt drained from earlier. So much for the magical prowess of a magician. Wait, flying... thought Grubbs.

"You know, I could fly us up there," said Kurumu, as if she knew what he was thinking.

"We could try it, but I'm not exactly the lightest person around," said Grubbs. He was a bit on the big side. But hey, more to love right?

"Don't worry, I think I can lift you." Kurumu's wings sprouted from her back. Looks like she wants to go through with this thought Grubbs.

----- A few moments later -----

"You alright Kurumu?" asked Grubbs. She managed to carry him and stay aloft, but already looked exhausted.

"Just....fine...." she grunted, trying to hide her exhaustion. Kurumu is doing a pretty good job so far, Grubbs thought, We'll be there in no time.

"HELP ME DESU!" shouted a familiar voice. "Oh, great... what does she need now?" said Kurumu. Grubbs looked around, spotting Yukari not too far away whose current predicament didn't look too good. She was surrounded by the jerks from before.

"Hey Kurumu, think you can drop me right here?" asked Grubbs, ready for a fight. "Right here in the air?" asked Kurumu, a bit bewildered. "Yup!" She gave him another weird look before letting go, Grubbs falling fast.

"What should we do with her?" asked one of the lackeys. "I say we eat the half-breed!" shouted the other one. "Sounds like a plan. No one will miss her anyways," said the Prez, starting to turn into his monster form. The other two followed suit, revealing their lizardman faces. They advanced on Yukari, back up against a wall with a useless wand.

"... away from HER!" shouted a voice from her. The four students looked up to see Grubbs falling from above. He landed on the first lackey, slamming him into the ground.

"What th-," the Prez started before a fist was slammed into his face, sending him flying into the side of the building. Grubbs looked at the remaining lackey, untamed ferociousness directed at him. The chump looked scared for a moment before charging at Grubbs.

"Big mistake," growled Grubbs before slashing at the lone lizard. The last one fell to the ground dramatically, blood flowing from his wound. Grubbs observed his hand, blood dripping off his... claws? He flipped his hand over a few times, which was covered in brown fur. Before he could freak out anymore, Yukari jumped up and hugged him from behind.

"My hero!" she giggled, causing Grubbs to lose his focus on his hand. Whatever anger that was toiling inside of him vanished, replaced with worry for the young witch.

"Don't worry Grubbs, I'm all right," said Yukari cheerfully, "All they did was break my wand." Grubbs sighed in relief, not usually the one to worry like this. Kurumu landed near them, panting a little bit.

"I though.... we were... going to save... Moka," she said between breaths. Yukari looked up in alarm. "Moka's in danger? We have to help her desu!"

"There's no way we can reach her time. My wings are tired," complained Kurumu, sitting on the ground. Yukari looked at her busted wand. "I'd teleport us there, but this thing is useless."

Grubbs looked into the sky, the blood red moon still high in the sky. "I think I can get us to the roof," he said, taking several steps back.

"How are you going to get us up there?" Kurumu started, "You said it yourself tha- WAH!" She never finished her sentence as Grubbs ran at an incredible speed, picking up her and Yukari and throwing them onto his shoulder. Grubbs ran a quarter up the school building before he started to dig his hands into the wall.

"Go Grubbs! Use your powerful magic!" cheered Yukari. He didn't have the heart to tell her that this wasn't magic.

----- On the roof -----

Gin opened up the door to the roof, spotting Moka near the fence. Score! Gin thought, walking up to her casually. With that Grubbs kid out of the way, Moka will be in the palm of my hand.

"So Moka," started Gin, "Have you heard about Grubbs sneaking around the locker rooms?" She nodded in response, not looking at Gin. "I don't believe it. He just doesn't strike me as the kind of person who would do that." Gin scowled, not pleased by the results.

She still wants him! He thought angrily, but it faded once he reached into his pocket. Gin pulled out the photos of Grubbs "caught" red-handed. Luckily, he was able to put it back together. Hey, it wasn't the first time his camera broke.

"Well, these have been circulating around the school," said Gin as he handed the photos to Moka. She grabbed them from his hands, her eyes widening when she flipped through a few of the photos before she passed them back.

"I don't believe it... Grubbs isn't the kind of person to do something like this," said Moka sadly. If she was looking at Gin, she would have seen his face, which looked like a cross between anger and constipation. Who knew Gin was capable of that?

She should be angry! Instead she still clings on to that loser! Gin's thoughts were swarming around his head, but he hadn't quite lost his composure yet. He closed the gap that was between them and pulled the vampire into his arms.

"What are you doing?" Moka asked fearfully, trying to break out of Gin's grip.

"I'm comforting you. It's obvious that you're in shock about Grubbs," said Gin. Moka struggled for another moment before breaking free.

"Wh-Why are you doing this?" she asked. Gin looked up at the moon and smiled.

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" he said, "When the moon is full like this, I just can't control myself," Gin started to advance on Moka. "How bout we go crazy together?"

"Stay away from her!" shouted someone, their voice sounding very familiar to Moka's ears.

Grubbs flew into the air from the side of the wall before landing a few feet from Moka and Gin.

"Grubbs!" shouted Moka joyfully, running towards him. Grubbs carefully put dwon Kurumu and Yukari before facing Moka.

"The one and only," he said with a smirk. Grubbs looked over Gin. At least, where he was at. Before he knew it, a fist connected with Grubbs' face, sending him flying into fence.

"You... you couldn't just stay locked up, could ya?" said Gin ferociously. Blue fur started to grow everywhere that could be seen, a snout appearing on his face. "Well, neither could I!"

Grubbs stood up and dusted himself off. "So you're a werewolf, huh?" He fell back to his knees, holding his head. "Release your inner self!" screamed the feral voice inside his head. No, I won't give in! Grubbs shouted back mentally, not entirely sure of himself. The last time he turned, Grubbs lost all self control to the other part of himself.

"Fate has not chosen this of you" said a third voice Grubbs had never heard before. Grubbs howled in pain, parts of his body beginning to shift. He could see the brown fur from earlier growing unnaturally fast on his skin. His arms seemed to be getting bigger too. Grubbs opened eyes, not knowing that they were closed to see that his coat was tearing slightly from the growth. He remembered this feeling all too well.

But... it felt different this time. Earlier, Grubbs felt drained of magic and wanted nothing more than to sleep for a week. Now, it was if power was flowing like a raging river!

It was just as surprising to Grubbs as it was to everyone witnessing it from the outside.

Kurumu and Yukari stood their ground, not knowing what to think. It was just a few days ago that he told them he was a mage and now he's a werewolf? Moka wasn't nearly as dumbstruck, but she didn't think it was actually true.

"No way! You're a werewolf too?" shouted Gin, a mix of surprise and anger written all over his face. Grubbs howled in response.

"He's one wild animal!" said Kurumu, "Grubbs' is officially cooler than you." It was hard to tell, but it seemed as if Grubbs was grinning.

"Grrr RAWGH! I'll show YOU who's the cooler werewolf!" said Gin as he rushed towards Grubbs at an incredible speed. Grubbs rushed forward also, his hand balled up into a fist. When he was close enough, Grubbs brought his fist up and punched ay Gin!...

....only to swipe at air. "You're so slow. You call yourself a werewolf?" taunted Gin, standing on top of the fence. He disappeared, blazing a trail all over Grubbs. Grubbs stood still, eyes darting from side to side before punching behind him. His fist successfully connected into Gin's snout, his body crashing into the entrance to the roof and slumping to the ground

It was a small victory, however, as Gin jumped back up to his feet. "I gotta admit you're pretty strong." Gin blurred from sight again. Grubbs looked around to see the other wolf running towards Moka. "But as long as I'm faster, you'll never beat me!" Gin scooped up Moka into his arms and jumped into the air.

Grubbs eyes widened, gathering speed and chasing after them. Gin landed on the fence and jumped into the air again, Grubbs close behind.

"Grubbs!" shouted Moka, reaching out with her free hand. Grubbs extended his hand as well, but went past her hand.

CHINK! Grubbs instead went after the rosario. There was a surge of power around Moka, bringing Gin to a stop near the edge of the roof.

"What the-" was all he could get out before a knee slammed into his face, dropping the now fully-powered Moka. She landed on her feet before lifting up her foot to roundhouse kick Gin. The perverted werewolf wasn't out yet, landing on his feet as well.

"A vampire? Even after your transformation, you're as beautiful as ever!" There was a tap on Gin's shoulder. Turning around, he saw Grubbs though his face had reverted back to its human appearance.

"I think Moka has something to tell you," said Grubbs, bringing up his fist. Gin ran forward, expecting a lightening quick get-away. He took two steps before he looked up at the sky, the clouds dark without the light of the moon. Grubbs looked up as well.

"That's right, your source of power is the full moon. Lucky for me I'm not normal." Before Gin could interpret Grubbs' words, he was sent flying towards Moka.

"Know," she started, kicking Gin into the air. Grubbs appeared in the air above Gin.

"Your," Grubbs performed an axe kick, sending Gin downwards.

"PLACE!" shouted Moka, her foot sending Gin off the roof like a rocket.

"I know my place!" Gin managed to say before he was a speck in the sky.

----- The Next Day -----

Grubbs, for some unknown reason, woke up feeling like he could fight an army. I've already been down that road he thought. Grubbs walked out of the dorms with a slight spring in his step. Once outside, he was glomped by two hot girls and a cute little one.

Life seemed pretty normal at this point for Grubbs. Thought the same couldn't be said about Gin right now.

"Can't we talk about this?" whimpered Gin. He was tied up into a tree. It wouldn't have been that bad if there wasn't a mob of angry girls with sticks and bats surrounding him. They raised their sticks while Gin closed his eyes, bracing for impact.

WHAM! SMACK!

Pictures of various girls changing flew out of Gin's pockets as if he was a pinata (argh no accents!). At this point, he pretty much is one thought Grubbs, witnessing Gin get beat up while his friends pulled on his arms in a game of tug-of-war.

----- ----- -----

There's chapter 4 for ya! Wow, this is a lot of words for me. At this rate, chapters are getting 1,000 more words added from the last one. Anyways, hope you enjoyed. If I just ruined book 8 of the Demonata for you (or made it worse since I haven't actually read it yet), then I feel kinda sorry.
