A/N:
Hey guys! TrixBella here,
Well it looks like the results are up! I really don't have much to say, but ah, well I'm glad you guys are liking this fic as much as I am writing this. Thanks for the reviews from on and off the site. Here's the official first chapter of R+B. Enjoy!
Chapter 1: Moka Vamp Episode 1
The ungodly sound of an electronic referred to as an alarm clock woke up the sleeping Koyomi. Trying to fight off the sleepiness, he shifted to the side and turned off the alarm. A few moments later he looked at the time, 7:00 A.M.
"And so it begins." the young vampire groaned sleepily.
He sat on the bed, removing the crust on his eyes, and looked behind him. He sees the now chibi-vampire sleeping happily on the bed, a mischievous smile on her face. The young vampire's eyes softened at the sight,
'She must've had a rough night due to her nightmare.' thought out while stroking her cheeks. Doing so caused her to stir a bit before giggling in her sleep,
"Hehe. Now, servant, kneel before me and lick my feet. Hehehe." muttered by the chibi-vampire, drool starting to leave her pretty mouth.
Koyomi dropped a sweat before shaking his head and wiping the drool off her face. He shook her a bit, trying to wake her up,
"Shinobu-chan. Shinobu-chan, time to wake up. Today's the big day, remember?" he said softly to her sleeping form, still continuing to shake the near-awake vampire.
"Noooo~ Stop it…" whined the chibi-vampire. She shifted, her back facing Koyomi.
The young vampire sighed, before leaning to her ear and whispered something to her.
Whatever it was, caused her to shot up at the speed of light, face turning different shades of red. The young vampire chuckled while the flustered Shinobu was glaring daggers at him. He patted her head before getting up to go to the bathroom,
"Want to join me?" asked the young vampire.
The chibi-vampire smirked, transforming into her mature form before saying,
"Thou already know the answer to that question." stated as a matter-of-fact by the sensual vampire.
Koyomi shook his head and chuckled, then continued to head to the bathroom. With the not so chibi-vampire following suite, they enjoyed a refreshing 20 minute shower.
Koyomi got out first, a towel wrapping his lower half. His torso glistening from the sheen of shower water, covered in scars from the results of his training with Shinobu. His muscles were toned, indicating a swimmer's body. Hair wet with water, he dried it off with another towel in his hands. A jingling sound came from his left wrist. The young vampire's eyes looked at the noise. A bracelet, with a ruby red gem embedded, adorned his wrist.
It was a seal.
His seal. A seal that can only be removed by Shinobu.
Koyomi continued to gaze at the accessory for a while…before getting kicked in the back. Stumbling, he turned to see the culprit. In front of him was a glistening wet Shinobu, leaning on the door frame of the bathroom with her arms crossed, doing interesting things to her breasts. Her eyes trained on his body with a predatory gleam. Iron-blooded, hot-blooded, cold-blooded vampire indeed. His gazed caught the attention of a black choker, embedded with the same ruby red gem from his armlet, on her neck.
The young vampire raised an eyebrow,
"Why is your choker visible?" he asked the sensual vampire, still keeping the predatory gaze.
"No reason, though it probably suited thy tastes, no?" Shinobu smirked.
The young vampire returned her expression twofold, "You would know, wouldn't you?" he teased.
The not so chibi-vampire blushed lightly, composure slightly compromised, before returning, "I would."
The young vampire chuckled, then went to his suitcase and took out a white long-sleeved shirt, boxers, his school blazer and pants, a red tie, a pair of black socks, as well as his academy shoes. He placed them on the bed before he took off the towel covering his lower half, revealing himself to the sensual vampire in all his glory, not minding one bit. Said sensual vampire let out a small playful 'reowr', then made an 'aww' when Koyomi put on his boxers. Next he sat down on the bed and put on his socks. He stood up and retrieved the tan colored pants and put them on. He then put on the long-sleeved shirt, buttoning it up to his neck, but leaving the cuffs unbuttoned. He had Shinobu help with his tie, much to her amusement, before putting on the green blazer. He stretched out the sleeves of the long-sleeved shirt underneath so that the cuffs were popping out from inside the blazer. Then he folded the cuffs before proceeding to button them.
All in all, Shinobu was on the verge of jumping him and undressing him again. But she didn't. She waved her hands and a white summer dress with black frills materialized on her hands. She reverted back to her chibi form, body now dry and her choker nowhere to be seen, and put on her dress. Another wave of her hands and her signature aviator cap appeared on her head.
Koyomi put his shoes in front of the door then walked up to the kitchen to cook breakfast for the both of them. He opened the fridge and took out four eggs, cheese, butter, and ham, as well as two blood packs and closed the fridge. He took out a pan from one of the hooks and placed it on a grill, before turning knob of the electric stove. Koyomi cut a good amount of butter and placed it on the pan, the butter slowly melting. He cracked the eggs and put them on a bowl, proceeding to mix it using cooking chopsticks, until it turned golden yellow. The young vampire sliced and diced the ham and cheese to small cube sized pieces and mixed them with the eggs, mixing it again. Seeing as the pan was ready, he poured the contents of the bowl in to the pan and cooked the omelet carefully.
Moments later, the omelet was ready and Koyomi cut it in half and placed it on two plates. Grabbing two glasses in the drawer, he poked a hole in both blood packs and poured out the contents in to the glass.
"Smells good, my servant." he heard his favorite vampire speak. Turning to the sound, he sees Shinobu sitting in the dining table inside the kitchen. He smiles at her and grabs the two plates and sets one down for Shinobu and himself. He went back and grabbed the two drinks, as well as two forks and knives proceeded to sit down on with the chibi-vampire.
"Enjoy, Shinobu-chan." he smiled at her as he gave a fork and knife to her, and the two went and enjoyed their breakfast in silence.
After their breakfast, Koyomi washed the dishes and Shinobu dried them. Putting everything where it was before, Koyomi grabbed his shoulder strap bag and they walked to the door. Putting on his shoes, Koyomi opened the door, gesturing for the chibi-vampire to go first. The chibi-vampire smiled and nodded, then stepped out the door. The young vampire soon followed and was met with the sight of the sun shining quite brightly. He took a deep breath and closed then locked the door. He took out his phone and looked at the time, 7:45 A.M.
"Here goes nothing." he says to chibi-vampire. Shinobu smirked, before proceeding to grab him into a bear hug that seemed impossible for a 12 year old body.
Then again, she is a Kaii.
Letting go, she stepped back and proceeded to sink into his shadow.
-50 minutes prior-
-Akashiya Moka-
Moka Akashiya woke up 5 minutes before her alarm rang. She sighed.
She had trouble sleeping.
Her mind kept wandering on the person she met the day before.
Koyomi Araragi.
She had made her first friend, and she was glad it was him.
He was nice. He was caring, maybe a bit quirky. He looked cute.
She blushed at the thought. Sitting up, Moka off the alarm and stretched her arms, letting out a yawn. She dusted off the dirt in her eyes and glided to the bathroom. As an S-Class vampire, her water system is much different from that of the other students. Water acts as a holy purifying agent and when untreated water touches her, a shock of pain will course through her body. As a solution, herbs such as nightshade are placed to dilute the water.
With that, she turns the faucet of the tub and lets the herbal water fill the bathtub.
Stripping off her night wear, she turns on the knob of the shower, letting the herbal water hit her pale skin. The smell of the water waking her up, she proceeds to let the water wash her pink hair. Moments later, with the bathtub ready, she slowly sinks in to the water letting out a sigh of contentment.
After the relaxing bath, she walks out the bathroom, towel wrapped to cover from her chest down. Drying her hair with another towel, she walks to the closet and takes out a sky blue blouse, the school's blazer and plaid skirt, white panties and matching bra, black socks and the academy shoes. Taking off her towel, Moka shivers at the sudden loss of heat. She adorned an hourglass shaped lithe figure, resembling a ballerina's body, her legs toned and feet spotless. D cup breasts resting proudly on her chest, she clasps on her bra. Next, she slips on her panties, following with the black socks. Grabbing the blouse, goes to her vanity mirror and puts it on, buttoning it up just right to show a bit of cleavage, her Rosario accentuating it. She then puts on her blazer, flicking her hair back with her hands to fix it, then buttoning it up as well.
Looking pleased at herself, she looks at the clock,
"Oh no!" panicking at bit after noticing it was 7:40 A.M., she takes out a blood pack from the fridge and decides to just drink from the pack.
Face scrunching up at the taste, "Tastes like burnt leather." she rushes to the door and puts on her shoes. As she opens the door, she says to no one in particular,
"I'm heading out~!"
And with that, she runs off to find her first friend, Koyomi Araragi.
Moments later, she spots him. Her face lit up in happiness, she runs up to him.
She slowly stops. 'Eh? Who's that girl with him?' Moka thought.
In front of her friend is a girl, seemingly at the age of 12, wearing a white summer dress adorned with black frills. On her head was an aviator cap with goggles, keeping her waist length golden hair with tips that curved up, from going all over the place. She had golden eyes that had an expression of mischief.
Seeing the girl give her a bear hug that seemed impossible for her age, she held a laugh in. She then gasped at sight of the girl sinking into his shadow, wondering what kind of monster her friend is. 'Araragi-san, who are you?' she thought out.
She resumed running towards him, which caught his attention, waving at him with a big smile.
-Present Time-
-Araragi Koyomi-
Noticing a flash of pink in his peripheral vision, Koyomi sees a certain Akashiya Moka.
"Araragi-san! Good morning!" The pinkette shouted, waving at him.
The young vampire smiled and waved back at her, "Good morning, Akashiya-san. Good to see you again."
Stopping to a walk, she performs another 100 megawatt smile at him, "Please call me Moka, Araragi-san." she says turning from his gaze and blushing a bit.
Ignoring the blush, he nods his head and returns in the megawatt smile "Well, if I'm to call you Moka, refer to me as Koyomi then." Her blush deepened at that,
"Okay then, Koyomi-san." she says weakly.
"Very well, Moka-san. Shall we go to the opening ceremony?" Koyomi asked the pinkette.
Regaining her composure, she nods. Walking towards the gymnasium, they tackle the new day with confidence.
Entering his classroom, Koyomi sees students mingling in the class.
Ranging from two people conversing to small circles to large groups of people, the young vampire thinks 'seems like Youkais have similar social interactions'
A voice resounds in his head, 'Of course. Though, the Youkai society is practically based in the feudal era, where strength rules all instead of the humans' peaceful and non-violent behavior.'
'Shinobu? Why don't you come on out?' asked the young vampire 'Isn't it normal to have familiars present in the Youkai society?'
An equivalent to a scoff voiced 'As if they are worthy of seeing my appearance.' she then mumbles quietly to herself. Unbeknownst to the hiding chibi-vampire, he heard a bit regarding privilege and being his. He chuckled and shook his head, then walked to his seat in the left corner of the room.
As he walks to his chair, he surveys the classroom; school desks that can be opened to store items are placed in the center and in the back of the room, a large chalkboard with bulletin boards in both sides is located in front of the classroom, a janitor's closet is seen a few chairs down, residing in the corner. To his right, windows that overlook the forest are seen, with curtains installed in the far left and far right. Judging from the looks of it, a typical Japanese high school room.
The bell rang as soon as he settled down into his seat, placing his shoulder strap bag inside the desk. Waiting a few moments for the students to sit down and be silent, a woman walked in the classroom, high heels clacking. Medium length blonde hair on her head, with black tips, on top of her head Koyomi saw what looked like cat ears of the with the same blonde and black color. Her face, attractive for people who were mature enough to appreciate it, had a happy expression pasted on it. Wearing a white suit jacket with a camo design tube top, her black skirt stopped at the legs, hugging her hips. He then saw a tail waving around willy-nilly. She had the looks of a typical ditzy blonde teacher with glasses, but he really shouldn't judge.
She walked up to the teacher's desk and coughed.
"Nya~" Koyomi dropped a sweat, "Hello everyone and welcome to Youkai Academy!"
She wrote her name on the blackboard and faced the students again,
"I am your homeroom teacher, Shizuka Nekonome!" showcasing her name on the blackboard to her students,
"I think you already know this but..." she kept her happy expression, "This-" waving her hands as if to showcase the entire school, "-is a school built for the sake of monsters to attend!" She drew a diagram of the Earth and some stick people surrounding it, labeling the stickmen as humans "Our current problem, the Earth has already come under the control of the humans!" the bakeneko rapped the picture of Earth with her teaching stick (?) to emphasize her statement.
"In order for us monsters to continue to survive, we have no choice but to continue to peacefully coexist with the humans." still rapping the black board, the teacher continues "At this academy, you will be studying 'How to coexist with humans'!"
'Sounds reasonable enough' Koyomi thinks. Noticing the teacher walk to the side of the desk and lean towards the class, he pays attention.
"So for that reason, as a school rule, you will all live your lives at this academy in your human form!" her previously happy face turned to that of seriousness, "Do you understand? It's a matter of being able to disguise yourself well as a human! This is the foundation of coexistence." she wags her finger at the class "You are never to allow any of your fellow students to know your 'True Form' understand?"
A chuckling was the reply for the teacher, it was the guy sitting a few chairs away from the young vampire. Koyomi glared at him. Long brown hair swept back, cocky expression, a piercing on the his lower right lip, clothes resembling a delinquent.
He probably is a delinquent.
"Hey teach, wouldn't it be better for us to eat up those puny humans, and in case of beautiful girls, better to molest them, hehehe."
'What a smug guy.' the young vampire irately thought, 'The fool! Servant! I may not care much about the humans, but his comment about molesting women, Youkai or not is unforgiveable. Show him his place!' an irate chibi-vampire called out to him inside his head. He can feel her disgust roiling up within her. 'With pleasure.'
Waiting for the right time, the teacher spoke "Oh, what was your name?" she looks up at the student book, "Komiya Saizou. Ah. Well, inci-" Koyomi then rushed in,
"You know, those puny humans you're referring to, do you think they don't know Youkai exist? There are organizations that are hellbent on decimating the Youkai population. Sure, a single human may be no match for you, but what about a squad of professionally trained monster hunters? An army of them? With today's technology, they could single handedly decimate this place with a well placed nuke."
Everyone's attentions were now focused on the young vampire, expressions of curiosity and fear on their faces. Koyomi noticed this and proceeded to continue, adding a bit of power to his voice.
"The only thing stopping them is the Great Barrier placed by chairman of this academy, preventing any human to enter and locate this place. Showboat yourself into the human world, and they will find a way to track you down, and in turn, track us all down. Trust me, I've dealt with monster hunters before, the only reason I survived was because of my master-" Shinobu felt pride at that "-assisting me. So before you spout out nonsense, think before you speak. But I guess a guy like you can only think with his other head, no?"
The entire class laughed, even the teacher (but she tried to hide it), with the young vampire's last remark. Saizou though, was not a happy camper. He was seething with rage and red with embarrassment. Koyomi's dagger glare prevented Saizou to turn around and strangle him, that and he was too embarrassed to even move.
'Not bad, servant.' the chibi-vampire commended. Koyomi nodded and relaxed in his seat.
"Excuse me!" a familiar voice made its presence known. Looking at the door, he sees the pinkette entering the class.
"After the entrance ceremony, I kinda got lost in the school…sorry I'm late" she looked apologetically at the teacher.
Said teacher cocked her head to the side before saying,
"Ara! What a cutie. Well that's fine, just take a seat-" she looked at her student handbook "-Akashiya Moka." finished with a smile on the bakeneko's face.
"Hai~" the pinkette smiled her megawatt smile.
All of a sudden,
"WHOAH!"
"Wh-Who's she?"
"Such flowing hair…such big eyes!"
"Hot! She's too hot!"
"I'm so happy to be in the same class as this girl!"
Shouts from all the male students resounded throughout the classroom, hearts replacing their eyes, steam coming out their ears and noses. The pinkette was a bit unnerved at the situation before,
She spotted the young vampire.
Spotted.
"Koyomi-kun!~" She launched herself to the startled vampire. "I'm so happy you're in this class with me!" Locked in a bear hug, Koyomi replied,
"Ah, looks like it'll be interesting with you around, Moka-san."
The males in the class responded with,
"AAAAAAH!"
"Why does it have to be him!"
"Our beautiful girl! Our beautiful girl!"
"NOOOOO!"
Within the class, a certain Komiya Saizou, eyed at the pinkette with less than honorable intentions. Licking his lips, he thinks 'Moka Akashiya, you will be mine.'
A loud clap caught everyone's attention,
"Okay class, settle down! It's time to start the lesson, nya~!"
Class started without a hitch. Currently the lesson was history. A good subject for the young Araragi, seeing as how he has a 500 year old companion with him, that and one of the perks of being a Kaii is having greater senses than those of others, meaning increased brain activity, allowing him to absorb and retain information at an incredible rate. It won't make him a genius at will, but if he tried hard enough, he could.
'I can't help but feel like I'm cheating using my Kaii senses…' the young vampire dropped a sweat. A snort from Shinobu reverberated in his head. He smiled and went back to taking notes.
Math. The young vampire didn't really like math, but his senses allowed him to understand concepts that made heads of some people implode. He impressed the math teacher, Kagome Ririko. The sultry looking mathematics teacher seemed to have a great passion regarding education. Wearing a white low cute blouse, making her cleavage stand out, and the same form fitting skirt to that of Nekonome, she's the fantasy of most high school males. Some females would say she's the TRUE enemy of all women.
But enough about that.
-Turning our attention to the bubblegum vampire-
She, on the other hand, could not concentrate. She was seated next Koyomi, inevitably catching his scent. That scent made her unable to concentrate, for some reason unknown to her, though she supposed that his scent would make any female go crazy. The sweet musky smell that he gave out, relaxing and making her mouth drool. She wondered if his blood tasted as good as he smelled. Unknown to her, someone could vouch for that.
-Back to our young vampire-
A sneeze resounded within Koyomi's head, interrupting his thoughts, followed by him sneezing as well.
'Bless you.'/ 'Bless you.' they both said. And both wondered what happened.
-Back to the pinkette-
A sneeze from her friend brought her out of her daze. She faced him and tapped his shoulder. Koyomi turned to face her she whispered a "Bless you." to him.
Koyomi smiled and nodded, before returning his attention back to the lesson.
And with that Moka Akashiya could finally pay attention.
Unfortunately the bell rang, indicating it was lunch time.
She didn't have any notes.
'Awwwwwwwww…' the pinkette inwardly whined. Then a thought came to her, and she smiled 'I'll ask Koyomi-kun to share his notes with me.'
Delighted, she packed her stuff and looked at Koyomi who was waiting for her near the door, leaning back and waving at her. She skipped towards him and so, they both headed to the cafeteria.
-Araragi Koyomi-
As the young vampire is being dragged across the hallway by the ecstatic vampire, he looked around; the hallway was decently spaced, the layout was pretty uniform, white tiles that had a zigzag pattern were placed on the floor, in front of him was a staircase leading to the second floor, he could guess that this school had around two to three floors judging by its size outside. To the side were the class rooms and across it were windows that overlooked the sea.
"Ne, ne, isn't this a cool hallway?" Koyomi looked at her, who was looking at him with her signature smile able to power a dozen computers. Seeing the bubblegum vampire cock her head in anticipation, he replied,
"Yeah. It is isn't it? The view from here is pretty relaxing." giving her a lopsided smile.
Satisfied with his answer, she went back to dragging him to the cafeteria.
"Wow…hey did you see that girl?"
"Whoah! Gorgeous!"
"I've never seen such a hottie!"
"I…I wanna date her!"
"Hey, hey! The hell is that guy next to her?"
"Let's just kill him now and claim the beauty!"
Both of them did not notice the male population ogling the pinkette and the miniscule killing intent directed at the young vampire, but they soon did when a familiar voice made itself heard.
"Hmmm, such a pretty one." both vampires turned their attention to the voice that said it, Komiya Saizou.
"You Akashiya Moka? I'm your classmate, Komiya Saizou. Salutations!"
The delinquent then walked up to both of them, focusing his gaze on Moka. A hand suddenly shot up and grabbed the collar of Koyomi then lifted him up in one hand,
"By the way, why is a beautiful lady like yourself associating with a guy like this?" a smug expression pasted on Saizou's face, never keeping his gaze off her.
Voices throughout the hall were heard,
"It's him! Saizou!"
"Komiya Saizou!"
"He seems like he's probably one of those ill mannered suspicious rogue monsters."
"He sounds like a ladies' man, from all the human women he's molested."
That got the young vampire's attention,
"They say he caused too many problems out there in human society and was forced to the academy against his will."
The delinquent continued his self-imposed speech,
"Wouldn't someone like me be far superior to that sort of scummy guy? Why don't we go off somewhere for just the two of us and have fun?" he licked his lips, unnerving the pinkette,
"Well? Why don't we go out for a bit?" the delinquent leaned in suddenly, startling the bubblegum vampire, who was on the verge of tears,
"Eh? Eh?..." she squeaked out.
That was it for the young vampire.
A sudden burst of Youki and killing intent was felt by all the students for a second, before disappearing, next thing the witnesses knew, there stood a frozen stiff Saizou, who let go of Koyomi's collar, looking at the eyes of the young vampire.
Ruby red reptilian eyes.
Noticeable fangs.
A noticeable air of power behind and around him.
It was over in a second. Dusting off the imaginary dirt in his shoulders, he held out a hand to the surprised bubblegum vampire, before shaking her head and taking his hand, and proceeded to walk towards the cafeteria.
The students stood dumbfounded at the confrontation, and as if a spell was broken, they dispersed and went about to do their own thing.
Unknown to all of them, a certain Rosario has been stirred from its sleep.
'That Youki…'
-Komiya Saizou-
A now recovered Saizou was staring at figure of the pinkette, and then overheard a conversation,
"Did you see his eyes, they were frickin' red man!" Student A mentioned.
"Those fangs too, pretty long…" Student B supplied.
"Maybe that chick was attracted to him cuz' he was a vampire, everyone knows that vampires marry within their own race only." Concluded by Student A.
"Yep, those eyes and fangs were proof enough that the guy's a vampire. Too bad, that chick was good looking." Concurred by Student B before proceeding to walk way, Student A in tow.
Saizou Komiya was plotting as soon as he heard the conversation.
"Vampire, huh? Whatever, I'll take that guy down and claim my woman. Then I'll be known as the guy who took out a vampire and claimed another." the delinquent chuckled. He stalked off to the library, a certain pinkette still in his mind.
-Araragi Koyomi-
Our main character is seen walking towards the cafeteria, with Moka in tow. He was thinking about why the pinkette didn't seem to have any friends. She was beautiful in her own right, and she was an outgoing person. So why? He decided to voice out his concerns.
But before he could, they arrived at the cafeteria.
Calling it a cafeteria would be an understatement.
The size of the place was comparable to a football field, Koyomi swore that some sort of magic was making this possible. It was like a food court in the young vampire's eyes. Various foods, ranging from human to Youkai, Chinese food to Ogre food. Many seats were scattered throughout the area, and there were many, many people in here.
"Waaaaaah~" hearing Moka's voice, the young vampire turns to face her, eyebrow raised. He was met by an ecstatic schoolgirl, eyes sparkling, mouth drooling, squealing.
"Look at all the foods in here~" the pinkette said, "Ne, ne. Let's go over there!"
It was like he was talking to a 10 year old in a candy shop. He chuckled and allowed himself to be dragged to a counter with no one in line.
Arriving, he looked at the menu in front of him, and raised an eyebrow yet again at a recipe in the menu.
'Blood pasta?' he thought out 'For some reason, that sounds unappealing…' Yet another squeal was heard, inside his mind. 'Iya! Blood pasta! Servant! I demand you get me one as well!' spoken by a seemingly excited chibi-vampire.
'What's so special about this?' he asked the shocked Shinobu 'Fool! Thou do not know of blood pasta? Something is wrong with thy head! It's a vampire's delicacy I tell you! Now, as your master, I demand you get one for me and for you. You have got to try it!'
A pretty lunch lady behind the counter smiled at the both of them and asked,
"What will it be for the two of you?" she showcased the foods in front of her.
Moka spoke first, "I'll have a serving of blood pasta, and a monster durian, as well as a blood pack please!" jumping with joy, the pinkette pointed at her orders.
The lunch lady nodded to her with a smile, before looking at the young vampire, her smile widening and a blush forming on her face. "What'll it be, pretty boy?" winking at him she showcased the foods yet again.
Koyomi smiled and said, "I'll have 2 servings of blood pasta, as well 2 blood packs please-" he was interrupted by the chibi-vampire 'Get a durian as well!' his left eye twitched, before continuing "-and a monster durian as well, please. Thank you." he asked the lunch lady who was looking at him with a predatory gleam before regaining composure and giving both of them their orders. Head cocked to the side in confusion of his order, the pinkette vampire looked at him questioningly.
Noticing her gaze, he mouthed a "You'll see."
The two paid for their orders, the young Araragi noticing a small note in his receipt that had a number and a name 'Hikari Fujiyoko'. Chuckling, he pocketed the note, receipt and change. They grabbed their respective food trays and left shouting a "Bye!" to the lunch lady.
'Thou art such a womanizer, thou know that?' a certain Shinobu mumbled inside his head. The young vampire laughed, much to Moka's confusion, and replied,
'I'm not going to ask her out, if I can get a discount for our friends then it'll be worth getting to know that lunch lady, what's wrong? Jealous?' the young vampire teased, which ruffled the chibi-vampire's feathers.
'F-Fool! As if…' the flustered Shinobu retorted, he can see her puffing up her cheeks in anger. He laughed yet again before noticing a small donut shop along the way.
Koyomi looked at Moka and said to her,
"Hey Moka-san, can we stop by over there?" pointing at the Sir Donuts section.
The pinkette let out an "Eh?" before nodding to him, smiling.
The young vampire felt an emotion of excitement and happiness in his mind, coming from Shinobu, but said nothing of it. Koyomi smiled and thought to himself 'She deserves something nice once in a while.'
The still smiling vampire walks up to the counter and asks,
"Excuse me. Can I get a dozen assorted donuts and a dozen donut holes?"
Arriving at the school roof top that they found while to search for a place to eat, they noticed it was calm and peaceful, no one in sight. The duo find a good spot to sit in and proceeded to settle down. A question broke the calm silence,
"So why is it that you ordered 2 blood pastas and blood packs? As well as those donuts? Are you a big eater, Koyomi-kun?" Moka asked Koyomi, head cocked to the side in confusion.
He looked at her before speaking,
'You ready to make your appearance to our first friend in the academy?' Koyomi asked Shinobu.
'Yes. I'd like to meet a fellow vampire, she's a nice person from what I can sense in her.' the chibi-vampire answered.
Nodding, he spoke "There's someone I'd like you to meet. She is my master as well as my companion. She'd like to be friends with you, Moka-san." he smiled at her.
With the pinkette shocked, she remembered the young girl she saw with her friend that morning. She nodded and smiled, "I'd like to meet her as well, Koyomi-kun."
And with that, Shinobu popped out of the young vampire's shadow.
Making a half-smirk half-smile, she walked up to the startled Moka and held out her hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet another vampire, call me Shinobu." she spoke, her half-smirk half-smile turning into a toothy grin.
Stunned at the young girl's revelation, she squealed and launched herself towards the startled chibi-vampire. "Kya~! Please be friends with me, Shinobu-chan!" the pinkette squealed.
Shocked at the use of a suffix on her name, she returned the hug and laughed, "Thou art energetic, young one, did something good happen?"
Koyomi sweat dropped at the use of the old man's catchphrase, but waved it off and spoke "Looks like you made another friend, Moka-san." he smiled at her.
Next thing the young vampire knew, he was at the ground being embraced by the pinkette squealing,
"Thank you for introducing me to her, Koyomi-kun~!" continuing to squeeze the unlife out of him.
A growl from all three's stomachs interrupted the happy moment, before all three laughed and proceeded to eat.
-Akashiya Moka-
Moka was sitting next to her friends, enjoying their lunch. She was sipping her blood pack looking at Koyomi spoon-feeding Shinobu. It was like looking a father and his daughter, she smiled at the sight. She was felt a bit jealous at the interaction, but waved it off, she was happy just being with the two. Moka was wondering about Koyomi's words 'master and companion' and decided to ask him about it.
"Ne, Koyomi-kun?" she spoke, catching their attention.
"What did you mean by master and companion?" the now common head cocking ever present.
She watched as the two of them look at each other and nod, then look at her,
"I'll answer your question with an answer first." Koyomi mentioned.
She nodded, allowing him to continue.
"I don't mean to cause offense but, why do you have trouble making friends? Your outgoing personality should be an advantage in making friends, why not use it?" the Koyomi questioned.
At his question, she lowered her gaze and drew circles on the floor with her finger "I used to go to a human school. I tried making friends there, but I was isolated."
She looked at Koyomi and Shinobu with teary eyes,
"I was isolated. None of the students believed in monsters, so I started believing that I was weird, that I was different from everyone, that it'd be better if I wasn't there, that it'd be better if I disappeared." she finished, looking at the floor again.
-Koyomi Araragi-
'I see. It must have been tough for her, I mean I didn't believe in monsters until a few months ago…' the young Koyomi thought.
'Haha, I think that girl and I are going to get along just fine, dear servant.' Shinobu smiled.
Koyomi put his hand on the pinkette's head and proceeded to ruffle it,
"Don't worry, not all humans are like that." he spoke with a spoke soothing tone. The young vampire was startled when she looked back up with fury in her eyes,
"No, Koyomi-kun! Those humans are really bad. I don't like them!" she said with righteous fury in her voice.
The young vampire dropped a sweat at this 'Well, it looks like I'm lucky that I'm not human anymore.' A laugh reverberated from his head. He looked at Shinobu, noticing her amused expression.
"Well. Moka-san. I have to make a confession, which will answer your question regarding my statement of master and companion." Koyomi spoke with a smile on his face.
The pinkette's expression turned to curiosity and surprise before nodding.
"I." the young vampire pointing a thumb at himself,
"Was once human." a small gasp escaped the pinkette's lips, unable to say anything. "To be honest, I was a human 5 months ago." the pinkette leaned towards him, focusing on his story,
"On the first day of the first month, I met-" the young vampire pointed to Shinobu "-Shinobu or rather, her real name as Kissshot-Acerola-orion Heartunder-Blade. I spotted her in an alley, missing both arms and legs. Dying." the pinkette put an open hand on her mouth and let out another gasp, looking at the amused chibi-vampire.
The young vampire put his arm around Shinobu and pulled her closer to him, letting her head rest on his lap before continuing,
"She asked me to help her, and so I did, by letting her suck my blood. Back then I felt like I wanted to die, because I felt like I had a boring life, so I thought that dying by helping someone was a good way to go. Turns out, I get turned into a vampire and as her servant, so that answers one of your questions."
Koyomi started stroking Shinobu's hair, eliciting a purr from her. The pinkette was too busy focusing intently on the young vampire's story to notice.
"She's my master. Now to answer the companion question. After I woke up, I did not want to be a vampire, so I found Shinobu nearby, sleeping and her limbs were back. I woke her up and she told me that her limbs were just a replacement, and that she needed her original limbs back from the three vampire hunters that took them, so that she can get back her powers and turn me back. Long story short, I managed to get her back to her original state. But a revelation was discovered. I was going to her to ask about how she would turn me back, and I found her eating one day, eating one of the vampire hunters. I was mad at this, asking why she would do such a thing. She replied with the predator/prey ideal, which did not make me satisfied at all. So we got into an argument and we fought. I was winning, I pinned her to the ground and sucked her blood. Halfway through, I realized something. I stopped and asked her how she would restore me back into a human. It turns out that for me to turn back into a human, I have to kill the person who made me into a vampire."
Koyomi gazed at Shinobu, who was looking back at him with a smile,
"So I had an acquaintance tell me what to do. My wish was to be a human, her wish was to die for living in boredom, I told him to make a way to make both of us happy. His response was that he cannot make us both happy, but he can make us both unhappy. He told me to beat Shinobu within an inch of her life, rendering her near powerless. Doing so will put her in a sealed-like state-" Moka looked at the chibi-vampire and saw a black choker materialize on her neck, a ruby red gem embedded in it "-that only I can release, while I will also be in a sealed-like state." Koyomi held up his left wrist, and Moka saw an armlet with the same jewel embedded in. "Shinobu did not like that though, she wanted to die. But I did not want her to die. Both our wishes were not fulfilled, I didn't turn back into a human, and she didn't die." he smiled at Moka "I have to devote the rest of my immortality with her to ensure she does not die, as my blood keeps her alive, and she has to devote the rest of her immortality with me so that she can release my seal."
The pinkette gulped and could only look at the two, unable to say anything.
Shinobu finally spoke "Koyomi was an example of a good human, Moka. He helped me when no one else did, went far where others stopped short." The chibi-vampire leaned towards his hand, closing her eyes and speaking "If it is with him, I do not mind spending the rest of my immortality with."
Only then when they were finished with their story, did the bubblegum vampire spoke, looking at Shinobu, "But, I thought that injecting vampire blood into a human would turn them into a ghoul. How is it that Koyomi-kun is not a ghoul?" she questioned.
The young vampire chuckled at that. The pinkette cocked her head.
"Let's just say that Shinobu-chan is special."
All Moka could do was nod her head.
After lunch, Shinobu sunk back into the young vampire's shadow the donuts in her hand and waving goodbye to the pinkette. The bubblegum vampire smiled and waved back at the receding form. When Shinobu fully receded, the young vampire heard a deep sigh coming from Moka,
"Whew. That sure was a lot of information to take in, Koyomi-kun. But with that I learned to judge people based on their actions rather than race, and I thank you for that." her signature megawatt smile on her face.
Koyomi only shook his head and replied,
"No, Moka-san. There is nothing to thank me for, I was just glad to help out a friend, that's all." the young vampire performing his signature smile as well.
The female vampire just giggled and proceeded to grab his hand and drag him back to class, wanting to finish school so they can hang out again.
-Akashiya Moka-
After school, Moka asked Koyomi if she can stop by his dorm and copy his notes regarding math and history...
-mini flashback-
"Hmm. I'm not sure. Currently, I'm living on a guest dorm, and today I'm going to move in to my more prominent dorm. If I can get that done early, you can stop by. If not, well, I guess I'll lend you my notebook. I will let you know, yeah?" Koyomi spoke, uncertainty on his face.
Moka pouted, before nodding "Okay, Koyomi-kun!"
-end mini flashback-
Walking to her dorm, Moka took a detour. Currently in the graveyard, she thinks about Koyomi and Shinobu, a fleeting smile appeared in her face.
'It's as Shinobu-chan said, Koyomi-kun helped me out when no one else did in a long time. I'm very grateful that I became friends with those two.'
Tears escaped her eyes as she cries tears of joy,
'I won't be alone anymore, I can finally have fun with friends!'
Her crying grew stronger as she remembered her first meeting with Koyomi.
'His strong yet gentle grip on me, carrying me like a princess…his handsome smile, delectable scent…'
A hand suddenly gripped her wrist. It was Saizou,
"Yo! Why are you alone and crying? Did that scummy guy up and leave you? Don't worry, you won't be lonely when you can be with a man like me." Saizou licked his lips.
He threw her to the ground, screaming from the top of her lungs.
-Araragi Koyomi-
The young vampire has just finished sorting living arrangements out with the headmaster. He chose to move in with his assistant in order to repay his debt to her, by putting up with him yesterday. The exorcist stated that his assistant will be gone for a day, which gives him time to set up a nice surprise for the pretty assistant when she comes back.
Walking back to his dorm, he hears the chibi-vampire speak,
'Thou should take care of the young one, Koyomi. Thou, of all people, should know that there are people with less than honourable intentions towards her in this academy. That fool of a Youkai, Saizou was it, should be watched very closely. I sense all forms of lust from that trash.'
Koyomi nodded an affirmative, 'She's a good friend, we'll watch her back, no?'
An equivalent to a nod was felt by the young vampire, and he smiled. He knew she really liked the pinkette.
Almost to the door of his room, his supernatural hearing caught a familiar voice screaming. His eyes flashed red and ran towards the direction of the scream.
-Akashiya Moka-
"Eeek!" stumbling into a gravestone, Moka braces herself.
"Hahaha! I'm serious, your beauty is incomparable to any one of those puny humans I've molested!" taking off his jacket, Saizou walks closer and closer towards her.
"I want you in all seriousness, MOKA AKASHIYA!" Moka notices that Saizou has trouble keeping up his human form.
Frightened at the sight, she screams even louder and calls out his name,
"KOYOMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!"
"Hahaha, I'm going to enjoy this little violation of the school rules!" Saizo is in his fully transformed state now, tongue now sticking out to the ground, slobbering the entire area.
As he got closer and closer to the panicking Moka, a blast of Youki stopped him in his tracks and in front of him appeared out of nowhere, Koyomi Araragi.
"You know, I always did assume that orcs were one of the stupidest of the monster races. I was wrong. You guys are really retarded."
"Koyomi!" happy that he was here, Moka ran up to him, but was stopped as he held out his hand.
Bite Size Monster Dictionary: Orcs
Shizuka Nekonome: Nya~ Hi there! Looks like Orc race will be showcased today. Well, here it is~!
-cough-
Orcs are a race that thrive on war and battle. They are physically strong and can crush boulders with their fists. When huge battles break out from between Youkai factions, Orcs are generally in the front line. Orcs are ranked B-Class Youkai, but stories and legends speculate that there are S-Class orcs. Nya~
-Araragi Koyomi-
Youki flaring around the unnaturally calm vampire, it was the most horrible thing that Saizou saw. Blacker than night and redder than blood, the Youki mix together, it was as if looking at the entrance to Gehenna itself. Seeing as the delinquent is frozen in fear, the young vampire settles his Youki and walks toward the frightened pinkette.
"Koyomi-kun." Moka whispers looking at his eyes with tears on her face. The young vampire's eyes soften as he notices her state 'I can't stand her being powerless when she's sealed, we'll have to do something about it as soon as we can.' he thought out to Shinobu. All he got was an equivalent to a nod, for she was too infuriated at the delinquent to make a coherent sentence.
He puts his hands on her shoulders and looks at the bubblegum vampire in the eyes,
"Yosh, yosh. Don't worry, I'll take care of this, yeah?" he wipes the tears off her face as she looks up at him and nods. But suddenly her eyes widen when she looks over the young vampire's shoulder and shouts,
"Watch out!" pushing him out of the way, he notices the now recovered Saizou throwing a punch at his direction. The young vampire lands on his butt and mutters a curse, and suddenly Youki exploded in all directions. He looks at the center of the Youki storm and sees Moka in the center of it. Looking at the reaction on Saizou's face made him smirk but then he gets confused as to what is happening. As he shifts his weight, he feels a metallic object on his hand. Looking down, a Rosario resides in his right hand. Putting it all together, he realized he must have pulled it when he was pushed out of the way. He stood back up and watched the events unfold before him.
Lithe figure turning into a fighter's body.
Fingernails sharpening.
Hair turning from pink to silver.
Fangs lengthening.
Eyes shifting from emerald green to ruby red.
An S-Class super vampire, Moka Akashiya.
Bite Sized Monster Dictionary: Vampires
Shizuka Nekonome: Ara~! Yet another showcase, and this time it's the deadly and attractive vampires too! Nya~
-cough-
Often mentioned in the folklore of various cultures: a monster that sucks the blood of humans and livestock. Possesses high battle capabilities and is not easy to kill. Its strength is the greatest among monsters. On the other hand, vampires have many weaknesses such as being afraid of rosaries and water. Also known as the Immortal Ones. Nya~
From the back of his mind he hears 'My, such deadly beauty. Tis what you'd call a femme fatale, no?' giggling ended the conversation and Koyomi couldn't agree more.
A voice laced with power spoke "What's wrong rogue one?"
Komiya flinched,
"You…want me right? Just try and take me…by force." She held out her hand and made taunting gesture, a smirk on her face.
"Won't you?" That was all Saizou could take.
"UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" His fist was aiming towards the super vampire, who remained standing in the same spot, full of openings.
Until the fist landed, and she was moved back a few meters, ground crumbling from the force of the punch.
The young vampire was nervous for a second, until he saw an outstretched hand blocking the fist. Then he was impressed.
"Attacking me, with this degree of power. You-" the reaction on Saizou's face was priceless. Koyomi couldn't help but chuckle. "-had better LEARN YOUR PLACE!"
A super powered high kick landed on the delinquent's face, forcing his head to turn to the direction of the kick.
A sickening crack was heard.
Blood flew out his mouth.
Teeth flew out his mouth.
His tongue…well was still hanging out his mouth…
His body flew into a tree, breaking it. But that doesn't stop his flight, he went to another tree.
And another.
And another.
Then he fell to the ground, exactly 35 feet from his original position.
And the threat was over.
"A low class monster like you who has nothing to show for his size doesn't even make for a decent opponent in a contest of strength." Akashiya called out. Dusting off the actual dirt on her clothes, she turns and faces the young vampire.
'What a complete turnover, this personality is totally different than Moka-san's.' he says to Shinobu as he keeps her gaze on the super vampire. 'Hmm. Interesting indeed, I know little of seals but I'm pretty sure that you don't get split personalities using one. What about us? I'll have to ask this young one about it.' Koyomi nods in understanding.
Seeing his nod, Akashiya raises an eyebrow and walks toward him.
"…What's wrong?" She asked the young vampire, "Are you afraid of me? Of this me?"
He shakes his head and smiles at her, surprising her "No, whichever Moka is present, she will still be my friend. I have no reason to fear a friend, no?"
Impressed by his answer, a small blush creeps on her face, "It seems to me that it is you that has awoken my from my long slumber. I am grateful for that." She stops a few feet in front of him, performing a small nod of her head as a sign of thanks.
"I have never heard of any seals that gave multiple personalities, young one. Tell me, how is this possible for your case?" Shinobu's voice catches her attention, she turns to see the rising form of the chibi-vampire from the young Koyomi's shadow.
"Hmm? Well, this-" she points to herself "-is my true self, the other Moka you have seen is a personality that was developed during my sealing ceremony. It's possible that it is for the convenience of 'making friends' as you call it." the super vampire nonchalantly flicks her hair to one side, revealing her pale neck to the young vampire's gaze. Koyomi ignores it and keeps his gaze on her eyes. Akashiya inwardly smiles at his honourable attitude.
"I see. Tis indeed interesting, I thank thee for sharing this information. I suppose we shan't keep you waiting, I've heard that being unsealed for too long can break the seal itself." Shinobu's trademark smirk and mischievous gaze trained on the super vampire.
"You heard correct, Mistress." Koyomi holds up her rosary in his hands, and Akashiya takes it. "Until we meet again, Mistress, Koyomi." she nods her head to each person and presses the Rosario onto her choker. A flash of light surrounds the area and the pinkette is back to normal, although she fainted.
Catching her, Koyomi looks at Shinobu and smirks. "You know what to do with that guy. Be my guest." he says to the now devilishly grinning chibi-vampire as she walks toward the unconscious form of Saizou.
She straddles his torso.
And proceeds to eat him, starting from his head.
Skin tearing.
Bone crushing and cracking.
Blood spurting.
Gray matter and various materials flying out.
The chibi-vampire lets out a small grunt, "For such trash, he sure doesn't taste bad." she comments, chunks of meat and bone flying out her mouth. Koyomi deadpans,
"For a Dark Mistress, you sure act like a starving peasant." The chibi-vampire harrumphed, but proceeded to correct her manners.
Moments later, and a now satiated Shinobu, they make their way to Moka's dorm.
And with that, the entire confrontation only lasted 15 minutes.
Post Script:
Wow, 26 pages in Microsoft word. Originally I planned for yet another 30 more but this entire chapter took the whole day! ¾ of it typing and ¼ of it proofreading. And even then I probably left out some grammar and spelling errors. I'm hoping I can get a beta reader before the fifth chapter is posted. :C
I've decided to split this into two parts so I can at least leave you guys with something to gnaw at. I hope you guys enjoyed the chapter, please read and review!
