(Tokonosu Airport)

"Boom, headshot" Said on the two people lied on top of a small building

The firs of the two, the one who had taken the shot was a tanned female with purple hair, she wore First Squadron police uniform with a bulletproof vest. Along with a black choke collar and shooting glasses. The second was a man that wore the same uniform as the woman, which consists of a full-body suit, knee and elbow pads, and a bulletproof vest. He also wears a black cap. He has a scar just above his right eye. The man looked at her, "…What are you doing?"

The woman stretched her arms out, "what do you think. We've been up here since morning so I was starting to feel numb."

"I can give you a massage if you'd like Rika" The man grinned,

"Tajima, beat my score and then will talk"

"Oh come on, weren't you the one who was inducted into the best five of all the police officers in the country?" the man said

"Yep, anyways. we're not allowing ships to dock, but people can leave the offshore airport." Rika mentioned.

"Is it because of the new regulations?"

"Yeah, blame the people up top. The Indispensable Engineers who were in charge of the airport maintenance are returning home to their families in droves. Anyone could leave next."

"Who knows what would've happened if we hadn't come along. They would've been fucked." Tajima mentioned.

"We have enough hands for now, but it'll only last for so long. We haven't been able to do much damage to those monsters. And since Hokkaido and Kyuushuu airports are starting to accept passengers again, we may have to send some support to strengthen their defenses." Rika said.

"But we don't have an unlimited supply of ammunition."

Rika smiled, "Are you going to run away?"

Tajima kept a straight face, "No, not yet. What about you?"

Rika kept the same smile on, "I'm going to go to the city eventually."

"Really? got a boyfriend or family members there or something?"

Rika removed her vest and then began to unzip her suit. When her suit came unzip, she revealed to wear a white sports bra, "I have a friend there."

(Apartment)

"Achoo!"

"Bless you Marikawa-san." Saya said.

"T-Thank you Saya-chan" Shizuka said now was wearing brown hot pants with a white tank top.

Takashi just stood in the living room and took quick glances at the sleeping girl that he and Rin had saved last night. She had shoulder-length maroon hair with bangs reaching down from the side of her temples stretching outwards, burgundy colored eyes, a mole under her left eye, and wears a white headband on her head. She was wearing a white jacket, a pink dress top and a light blue skirt, black socks and shoes.

It had been hours since Rin had lead the undead away and the young exorcist had yet to return. A few members of the group were a bit worried for the dark haired teen and just simply could sleep. Some were worried that he been hurt or worse killed, after all no matter how strong one was number could always overwhelm and the number were definitely against him. But other specifically Saeko and Kohta assured them that Rin wouldn't die so easily.

At the moment the teens and nurse were all doing their own thing. Saeko sat on a comfortable as she read a book she had found and was now earing her uniform once more. Kohta and Hiro were cleaning the Guns while Kohta explained to Hira how they worked, Saya and Shizuka were surfing through the channels trying to find any news station that was still on the air but with little luck. As for Takashi and Rei the young man sat on the couch with a somber expression on his face and the young girl watched him with a worried glance.

Rei looked at her childhood friend and began to worry. She was now wearing her school uniform again, but she stopped wearing the black, thigh-high socks. The brunette realized ever since he returned without the blue exorcist, her childhood friend had been rather depressed and frustrated lately not that she could blame him but none the less she felt worried. She walked over to him and placed a hand on his shoulder, "Takashi."

The boy didn't say anything and kept an irritated look on his face, "Taka-"

The boy snapped his head to look at her, "What!"

Rei jumped a bit, but simply began to approach him slowly until was sit next to him. "Look I know you're worried about Rin-san. But remember both Busujima-san and Hirano-san assured us that he'll be fine. Plus you heard what he said his trained to deal with this sort of thing, so I'm sure his ok"

"And how could you know that? You saw how many of them there were" Takashi told here as re returned to his somber state.

"Miyamoto-san right Komuro-san, believe me when I tell you that out of all of us Rin-kun is the most likely to survive against whatever is out there. So there's no point in worrying" Stated Saeko sending him a reassuring smile while getting a nod of agreement from the chubby gun nut.

Takashi sighed and scratched his head "I know you guys are right, But still I just can't help but feel that Rin-san might run across something worse than a horde of 'them' " said the teen.

(Somewhere in the City)

After hours of running and killing countless of 'them' Rin somehow ended up out of sight from the house but couldn't exactly tell how far he'd gone. As he looking behind him, he saw that their numbers had started to decrease. A smile came upon his face, "Looks like I'll be able get some shut eye after all" Said the blue exorcist as he swung his sword vertically upward on one of them, which ended up cutting the entire body in half.

During his long time of fighting, Rin's dark pants had been torn below his knees and his black tank top was nothing but a blood soaked rag that barley managed to cover up his torso. While his entire body was covered by the blood of those he cut down. The last few remaining creatures came up to the young exorcist as they all lunged at him. Rin simply grabbed one by the neck and slammed it on the ground, as he stabbed it in the head. He then ducked to avoid the corpse's grasps and spun a full turn, as he sliced their bodies in half. Blood showered down on his body, as he stood straight back up. His eyes remained narrowed the entire time he was out here.

But at that moment his train of thought was broken when he heard the sound of clapping along with amused laughter coming from behind him. Rin quickly performer a 180 spin to face whoever was behind him. Once he was face to face with the source of the laughter he was a bit surprised to see a man who looked like he was in his mid-twenties sting atop of a black SUV. Rin began to study the man and saw that he had fair skin with rosy hues, rather small eyebrows and thick shoulder-length bright red hair styled into slicked-back spikes, bright emerald eyes and a purple reverse-teardrop shaped marking under each eye. The man wore a high quality black blazer with a white silk dress shirt that was mostly opened, black trousers and black dress shoes. But Rin's shock was quickly replaced by anger once he felt the demon energy the man was realizing but what truly worried Rin was that even with the great amount of energy he was giving off the young exorcist could tell that the red haired man was suppressing it and that was what unnerved Rin the most. But he was brought back from his thoughts as he heard the man begin to speak.

"Hahahaha, bravo! such wonderful spectate and I must say I'm glad to see that the rumors of your skills with a blade haven't been exaggerated my young prince" the man said smirk plastered on his face which only served to make Rin even more tense.

"Who the fuck are you" Rin asked as he tightened his grim on Kurikara ready to strike on a moment's notice.

"Now Now little brother no need for such hostility, after all we're family" the man said as his smile instantly turned to a wicked grin "Plus we both know both know you wouldn't stand a chance. Also i doubt you'd want anything to happen to filthy humans you insist on protecting" the Demon said as Rin sent him a death glare with as much kill intent as he could muster. But alas it didn't seem to have the effect he wanted and instead caused the demon to laugh with even more amusement.

"HAHAHA come now I was merely jesting. I mean I could understand if I had threatened the purple haired girl since its clear you fancy her so much. But honestly why worry yourself about people you barley even know?" The demon asked.

"Because their my friends" Rin stated as if it was the mostly obvious thing in the world.

"Are they? Then tell me brother. What will these so called friends of yours do when they find out about their heritage? When they discover that you are the spawn of the king of hell"

"They won't find out" the teen said with a bit of hesitation in his voice.

"We both know that's not true. The corpses and ghouls you've fought so far have been nothing but warms up. The true battle is yet to come and sooner or later you will be force to use your flames and when that day comes I will enjoy watching your little 'friends' turn on you" the man said as he placed his hands inside his pocket and began to walk away.

"Wait!" Rin shouted regaining his composure as the man halted and turn his attention back to Rin. "Just who the hell are you?" Rin asked which made the man's smile return.

"My Name Iblis, Demon king of fire and it was a pleasure to finally meet you little brother" the now introduced Iblis said as a large pillar of fire shot upward from beneath the demon king engulfing his entire body, which forced Rin to raise his hand over his face to shield himself from the intense heat. Once the heat and flames dispersed Rin lowered his arms and saw that Iblis was long gone leaving nothing but a large scotch mark were he once stood.

As the young exorcist looked at his surrounding he saw that he was alone once more. "*sigh* great like a freaking zombie apocalypse/demon invasion wasn't enough now I've got a demon kind to deal with. I swear if I ever meet the prick who came up with Murphy's Law I am kicking his ass" Rin declared with an annoyed look on his face. Once Rin had calmed down he noticed that he was in some sort of shopping area. As he looked down at his clothes, he deciding that it would probably be best to find some news clothes to replace his tattered rags.

After a few minutes of searching Rin found himself standing in front of a clothing store that actually seemed to still be barely touched,. He saw that the doors to the store were forced open and also saw glass everywhere. What caught his attention even more was the blood on the ground. At that moment a gust of wind came from his right, which caused his hair to blow with it. His upper body began to shiver from the impact of it, as he then walked he began to look for some proper clothing. Once he was inside, he saw clothes racks that were knocked down all over. Taking in his surroundings, he walked to one of the racks and realized that this one was full of men's clothing and as his eyes roamed around the rack he was able to find a black long coat along with a gray V-neck T-shirt, black jeans and a pair of black boots.

Once he had found a suitable outfit he made his way to a nearby dressing room, once there he quickly took off his shirt only to stop as he saw his exorcist pendant that from a black leather cord around his neck. Now unlike normal pendant this was looked a bit beaten up and the reason for this was because that was the very pendant that belong to his late father the same one he had used to take his own life in order to banish Satan back to the Underworld and save him. It had been a gift from his brother when he passed the promotion test and became a full-fledged exorcist and while for some this would bring sad memories, to Rin it was a reminder of the promise he had made on his father's grave. Rin quickly pushed does thoughts to the side as he removed the rest of his clothing replacing it with the new once. Once he had rolled up his sleeves put on his last pieces of clothing with were a pair of black leather fingerless gloves, Rin exited the changing room Rin decided that it would be a good idea to get some clothes for the others, but before he could do this Run heard one of the racks falling to the floor along with a familiar moaning.

Rin turned towards the source of the noise and saw that a small group of undead along with a few ghouls had made their way into the store. But as Rin examined the creatures he noticed that there was something odd about them. As he focused his sight the young exorcist's eyes widened as he noticed that some of them had crowbars and pipes in their hands.

'Shit! Don't tell me these things can use weapons now? That's the last thing we need. Wait? What are they doing?' Rin asked as he saw that some looked like they were sniffing. At first he was a bit confused as to why they would be doing such a thing but at that moment a worrisome thought crossed his mind. 'C-can they smell me?' Rin thought nervously. While he didn't doubt that he could take them on (weapons or not) he didn't want to cause enough noise that it would attract others. He tensed as one of the ghoul hounds was approaching his hiding place. But just then the creatures suddenly stopped as their attention was drawn back to the outside as they gave out a disgusting roar and ran out with their weapons in hand.

Once the undead were outside, Rin heard the sound of gunshots going off along with the sounds of cutting through flesh. The blue exorcist quickly unsheathed his swords as he made a dash for the nearby counter taking cover behind it. He looked over at the counter where the register was and as the smoke began to clear Rin was able too see that there's a large group of people. When the smoke cloud had finally dispersed Rin was finally able to get a good look at the assailants, but when he was who it was his eyes widened in pure shock only for it to be instantly replaced by rage.

"Illuminati" Rin said in a whisper. The illuminati were a powerful influential group led by none other than the King of light himself the demon king Lucifer. Their goal was to merge Assiah and Gehenna and 'return the world to the original state and bring the divided worlds together in order to make every living being equal to one another, thereby creating a world free of affliction and one of true peace' as Lucifer put it when he declared war on the order. And while at first glance that might seem like a wonderful dream, the way they went about doing this went against what they supposedly stood for, the illuminati were merciless and cruel and all does who either disagreed with them or stood in their way were terminated with extreme prejudice.

As the exorcist examined them closer he saw that these certain group were exactly like a few he had faced before. It was clear that this people had enjoying killing the dead and he had no doubt they would enjoy killing the living if the laughter he was hearing was anything to go by and as he continued to observe the people who were fighting a few of the remaining dead he noticed that some of them had guns similar to the once he had seen in the apartment. Those that didn't have firearms were using high quality close combat weapons such as such as long swords, great swords, spears and axes. But then all went quiet as a familiar voice came from amongst the crowd getting everyone's attention.

"Alright that's enough of that" said the familiar voice which made Rin eyes go wide in shock.

'No, it can't be' Rin thought. But alas it was, for none other than Renzo Shima emerged from the twenty man squad as he made his way to the front of the store, with his teal, white and red uniform and his K'rik in hand. (If you're interested in what the uniform looks like google Ao no exorcist illuminati and you'll find a picture of Shima with the rest of the illuminati)

'Shima' Rin mentally said letting out a low growl as he glared daggers at he had once considered a brother in arms. For you see the reason Rin held such anger towards Renzo Shima was due to the fact that the pink haired teen had been a spy for the illuminati and when he had discovered this along with the rest of his friends you can imagine how they had felt as Shima casually told them of his reason for betraying. Rin could still remember the looks of betrayal from Bon and Konekomaru had had and while he and Rin weren't as close, he had still considered Shima a friend as he had been one of the first people to accept him when he was revealed as the son of Satan.

"Alright people we had our fun but we've still got a lot to do, so let go" Shima announced the squad began to move. But just as he thought Shima was about to leave, Rin looked through a hole a random bullet had made and the that he pink haired teen was looking at his direction and for a moment the blue exorcist thought he was going to recall his men but instead all he did was give his trade mark carefree smile and casually walked away.

After a few minutes when all was silent once more, Rin emerged from under the counter as he looked at where Shima had stood as multiple questions ran through the young exorcist's mind a mile per minute. Why was Shima here? What where the illuminati doing in the city and what were they planning? Could they be part of all this? This and many other questions ran through Rin mind but he pushed does thoughts to the accumulating question pile in the back of his mind as he looked up at a still functioning clock and saw that he had been gone for too long.

"The other must be worried about me. Hmm maybe I could bring them here so they can get some better clothes, plus we could probably salvage something useful from the other stores" the young man thought out loud. In the end he decided that he would discuss it with the group once he returned to the apartment.

(Time Skip)

It had been a full hour since Rin left the shopping district and while one would think that with all the dead he had killed the night before getting back to apartment would have taken far less. But does people had clearly not accounted for the dead's insane numbers. Half way through his trek Rin discovered that the dead had retaken the part of the neighborhood that he hadn't sealed off which meant he had to find another way back to the apartment since he really didn't want to deal with all the dead now that it wasn't necessary. After making hey way around he was able to find a route that could get him to the apartment, but just then Rin's danger sense kicked which made him go into full guard

He looked around his left eye began to twitch in annoyance and anger as he saw that two giant naberius had appeared on the far end of the street and were looking directly at him. They stood at about ten feet tall, with four arms, two heads each and were completely covered in stiches, along with complete muscle and disgustingly huge tentacles.

"Oh god not these things" Rin told himself in annoyance as memories of when his former summoning teacher had sent a few of them after him.

The two giants charged at him like a couple of raging bulls. They closed in on the dark haired teen and attempted to slam their fists down on him, but the young exorcist easily jumped back avoiding them. He unsheathed his sword flipping it in his hand to where he held it backwards and once his feet hit the ground, he charged at the two with incredible speed. He appeared behind the two giants in the blink of an eye and with a single wide ark slash blood shot out in the air as he ended up cutting them both in their backs. But just as his feet touched the ground he was hit hard against the gut and sent soaring back. He hit the ground rather roughly and ended up sliding a few feet. When he came to a stop, he leaned up and saw the two naberius coming at him once more. Since brute force hadn't worked, he knew that he was going to have to use his demonic power. The demons closed in and like last time, they attempted to smash him, but Rin spun around them and with his sword know engulfed with his blue flames he attempted to cut the creatures in half finishing them off. However, that didn't quite happen as both creature were able to see the attacked coming and quickly got out of the way dodging Rin's attack.

Once on the ground Rin looked up at the giants and was instantly hit by an uppercut against his chin. The dark haired teen was sent in the air and due to the creatures immense strength the hit forced him to drop his sword. The demons quickly grabbed the exorcist's ankle while he was still in mid-air and then slammed him hard on the ground. A sharp pain shot throughout his back and then he coughed up some blood. The beast let go of him and attempted to beat down at him, but at that moment Rin unleashed a blast of blue flames which threw the creatures back, Rin stood right back up with an angry look in his face as a small trial of blood came down from the right side of his face.

The second naberius charged at the exorcist, but Rin was able to quickly jumping over the incoming beast and while he was in mid he performed an amazing three sixty spin and using the momentum he delivered a devastating roundhouse kick to the back of the demons head. It managed to cause to the naberius to go sliding forward, but it didn't last long, as it stopped itself.

But just then a sound came from behind the young exorcist and just as he looked to see what it could be, his danger sense kicked in telling him to dodge which he quickly did avoiding a sneak attack from the first naberius. Rin was luckily able to get some distance as jumped away and landed right where he had dropped his sword, which he quickly picked up. Looking at where he once was, he saw the two demons looking around for him. He swung his sword horizontally, which ended up shooting a strong wind blade towards them. The attack caused the two giants to stumble a bit, but then they both glance to where it came from and saw their target. They charged towards him while unleashing ravenous roars. Rin patience had reached its limit with the two giants and so as his body was engulfed in his blue flames Rin took hold Kurikara with both hands Rin unleashed a powerful Satan slash which sent a wave of blue flame towards the demons. With nowhere to go the demons were engulfed by the blue inferno purging the impure creatures from the face of Assiah along with any else in the nearby vicinity.

Once the flames had faded away Rin took a deep breath and after a few seconds released a long sigh as all the stress from battle left his body "Well that takes care of that" Rin said to himself as he looked up at the sky as saw that the sun was beginning to rise.

"Well at least I won't run into any of 'them' for a while" Rim said as he looked around the area to see all that all the nearby courses had been turned to ash. A sigh escaped his mouth, as he sheathed his sword and began to head back to the others.
