[Classroom: Lunch Break on the roof] [12:15 PM]

Yukari was shuffling her tarot cards and Tsukune was watching her while laying on the floor.

"Yukari?" Tsukune asked

"Yes?" She said, not looking up

"I've been wondering...what do you use your tarot cards for?" He asked

"Oh! They are more of a lucky charm than anything else..." Yukari said, looking down at Tsukune.

The red-haired teen stood up, stretched out his limbs and looked at Yukari and said, "Do you think you can make them better?"

"What you mean?"

"Like use them for attacking or defending yourself?" Tsukune said

"Hmm~, give me an example," She said, now very interested in the conversation

"Like can make your cards form a shield to protect you or you can use them to summon things to fight for you?"

"That sounds really interesting. I never thought of using my cards like that before. But I don't know how..." She finished with sadness

"Your parents are witches aren't they? I'm pretty sure they would know how," He said, offering his advice

"That's true, however can I pick your brain some more ideas about how to use my tarot cards?" Yukari said, looking hopeful

Tsukune nodded and Yukari squealed and hugged him and then the pair went deeper into the discussion of different ways for Yukari to use her cards and she had to write down all the new ideas in a notebook and the discussion for each card.

At the end of lunch time, Yukari was smiling and she found out that her cards were a lot more special than she realized and made to write to her parents for several books about magic and her conversation with her friend Tsukune.

Unnoticed to Yukari, she was once again being watched by a stringy-haired boy wearing glasses, who was gritting his teeth in anger at seeing the happy scene and Tsukune turned his head to smirk at him, making the fanboy fume in anger from his hiding spot.

Several days later, she received a package of several books that were her mother's and one of her fathers' where they told her about the tarot cards in her collection and how to use them to their full compacity and one of the books to raise her yokai and magic usage.


[Swimming Pool] [4 PM]

After school, Kurumu asked Tsukune if he wanted to take a swim with her and he agreed, but just needed to change first and Kurumu nodded and told him to meet her there at the pool.

Tsukune and Kurumu arrived at the swimming pool, turning heads as people watched the two.

Tsukune stood out with his fiery red hair and his pair of black swim trunks with orange-red flames, while Kurumu had her hair pulled up in a ponytail and a baby blue bikini that barely held her tits in place while she walked.

"Come on Tsukune and help me stretch," She asked

"Fine..." Tsukune stood up and made his way towards Kurumu who sat up and let him take her limbs to stretch them, much to mutterings of 'Lucky bastard' surrounding them.

He had her lie on her back as he worked her over and then started to rub her back making her moan, much to his slight embarrassment and pride and to the renewed cursing of the guys surrounding them. Along with the head slaps of several girlfriends of said, staring male monsters.

After Tsukune finished, she dragged him towards the pool, Tsukune cannonballed while Kurumu dived in. She came up from the water with grace and then the two started to swim and mess around.

"Having fun?" Tsukune said, treading water

"Lots of it and it could be even more fun..." She trailed off, pressing her tits against his chest

"How so?" Tsukune said, already knowing what she wants

Kurumu pressed her lips against Tsukune and made to kiss him to the best of her ability and he responded much to her glee.

The two finally released for air, showing a heavy blush run across her face as he carried her out of the pool and laid her out on her towel and kissed her cheeks and down to her neck.

Tsukune rubbed her sides as Kurumu closed her eyes and let pleasure wash over her. But he then he stopped, which caused her to look up confused.

"W-why did you stop?" She stuttered

"Because that's not what you truly want isn't it?" He replied, looking at her with knowing eyes

"I-I-" Tsukune cut her off by hugging her, making tears well up in her eyes

"I would have let you if you wanted..." She mumbled softly

"Maybe, but you want someone to give you children and spend time praising you. I'm more of your best friend who is willing to defend you and stand by you. Besides, your heart wasn't really in your attempts."

"No, I-" "Don't lie to me, Kurumu."

She flinched and he continued, "As you can sense passionate emotions, Dragonborns sense such things as well and as I am aligned with fire, I can sense fiery emotions such as love, lust, passion and so on."

"So you could tell right away, huh..." She asked him

"Yes, but you taking my first kiss is something that will always be pleasant for me to remember and I know you will find someone special."

"You are truly a...one of a kind person, aren't you Tsukune?" She asked, wiping away her tears

"I have my moments..." He said, shrugging his shoulders

"So what now?" She asked, not wanting to be near the pool anymore

"There is a cheesy romantic movie with your name on it..." He offered

She let out a shuddering laugh and said, "Alright," with a smile

They grabbed their towels and then left the pool under the heated glare of the Kurumu fanboy.

The day ended with Kurumu laughing and going back to her dorm room in a good mood and wondering about a new potential destined one and her friendship with Tsukune.


[Tsukune's Dorm Room] [10 PM]

Tsukune has been spending time with the snowwoman and now it was Friday evening and Mizore wanted to spend the night in Tsukune's room and he allowed her and soon the pair found themselves residing in his dorm room.

Tsukune was wearing a burnt orange sleeveless t-shirt with three-quarter sweats and Mizore was wearing a gray sweatshirt with blue pajama bottoms.

They were watching cheesy slasher films with snacks surrounding the two of them, laughing and joking about the fake deaths and cheesy lines.

After finishing the 'Scary Movie' series, Tsukune asked, "What's the next one?"

"Hm~, how about Vampires suck?"

"Vampires Suck? I haven't heard of it...Is it funny?"

"Just about the fake vampires, just a shitty, funnier version of the twilight series."

"I see...I'm not going to have to tear out my eyes, will I?"

"No, at the best you get a couple of cheap laughs, at the worst, I will make removing your eyes as painless as I possibly can."

Tsukune mocked sniffed and said, "You treat me so well, snowy."

A block of ice fell on his head and said, "Don't call me that, you jerk."

"So what can I call you?"

"Mizore."

"How about minty?"

"No."

"Chilly?"

"No. No nicknames," She said, crossing her arms over her bust

"How about the name cutie then?"

"I'm not cute," She said, softly

"I didn't say that I called you a cutie, so that's what you are."

"You are too cheesy, you know that..."

"Maybe, but you didn't deny your nickname so it stays," He chirped

She tutted and said, "Let's just watch the movie, Tsukune."

"Alright," He smiled before going to Netflix, the rest of the night was spent with laughing and eating snacks.


Tsukune was resting on his bed on a rainy weekend, listening to the noises of the boys in the dorm catching up on work, messing around in the lounge or catching up on sleep.

Tsukune looked at his window where the pitter-patter of rain hit the window as he thought back to his cousin.

[Flashback]

Esdeath vs. Tsukune

Training Room:

Tsukune was wearing a pair of black shorts with a red t-shirt and dark boots while Esdeath was wearing a blue tight shirt with a white skirt and heeled thigh-high boots. The two dragonborns stood across from each other with excitement heavy in the air.

"Finally going to give what I want?"

"Such a unique choice of words," Tsukune smiled

"Still have a mouth on you, I see," Esdeath smiled back

"Both opponents ready?" The announcer said, looking at the two dragons

"Yes," The two of them said at the same time

"Fight~!" He said, then moved the hell out of the way

Good thing, too. Considering an explosion just happened from where he stood, Tsukune and Esdeath were in a deadlock as they looked at each other, trying to get their opponent to kneel, but Tsukune kicked her away from him, but that allowed her to spread her arm out, calling on a horde of icicles ready to impale Tsukune.

"Weissschnabel!" She yelled, firing them at them at Tsukune

Tsukune responded with a wall of blazing heat with, "Kyokaen!" and called out, "Hotarubi!"

He put out his hands with many bright yellow condensed fireballs around Esdeath, rigged to explode and they did, but she avoided it and appeared behind him above to strike at his back and was about to carve through him and she literally cut through him.

Tsukune smirked at her surprised face and slashed at her and she avoided it.

"So you've been working on techniques have you?" Esdeath said as she watched Tsukune's flames disappear off his body

"So have you, you're much faster than I remember...I hope you know how to keep it," Tsukune said

"I should be telling that you," She smiled before the two went through duking it out again, causing explosion after explosion, melted ice and fire licking the air as the two panted with excitement.

"Kagero!"

"Higan!"

"Hiken!"

"Grauhorn!"

"Hagelsprung!"

The pair of Dragonborns panted as they stared at each other and then both decided to release their last attacks.

Tsukune used his fire to surround him leaving him nearly untouchable in a blaze of hellfire, covering his entire form like the sun.

Esdeath formed her ice around her in a raging blizzard, barely obscuring her entire body from sight and the pair stood still for a moment before they screamed out their last attacks.

"Ice Storm!" Esdeath yelled, her powers creating ice spears to stab into Tsukune

"Dai Enkai: Entei!" Tsukune yelled, his powers, creating a blazing inferno towards Esdeath

The attacks clashed before everything went white before the flash ended, it ended in a wipeout, Godric was scared out of his wits while Tsukune's mother and little Olive was cheering from the other side of the protective barrier.

Tsukune's uncle sighed and said, "We need to repair the training room again, I need to get started on that new reinforced training ground."


Moka Akashiya was not always the pink-haired leech that was known today...

When she was younger she was actually much more spirited, she could defend herself and her friends and had a bit of a mouth on her when angered, but that was mostly because of her ghoul side. Her hair was a dark pink boarding on red wine, but she was still a sweet girl.

She made friends with several humans and monsters that were in hiding like she was, along with several ups and downs, her childhood raising herself in the human world was fine. All except for...that day. Where Inner made the decision to split Outer Moka from her Ghoul side.

Inner hated how Outer would ignore her advice, how she wouldn't put people in their place whenever she was insulted or how she hung around with people who Inner thought were below her station as an S-class super monster.

However, Inner found out when Outer let her out was that Moka had a ghoul side as a part of her and she just needed to tear away that part and lock her away so she can mold Moka into a person suitable for her.

Inner started her plan on Halloween night when Moka was dead asleep from the festivities of partying with her friends and she would be none the wiser.

Inner gave Moka's ghoul side a body where she was chained to a dark part of Moka's mind where she would never find her and Moka would only listen to her and become a proper vampire under her guidance.

She erased and rewritten all of Moka's memories of Ghoul and had Inner be the one that was there for her and protect her, she made her compliant and had her avoid fights, destroyed her relationships with her childhood friends and made her into what she is known now...A leech that needs others to protect her.

Ever since then, Ghoul Moka has been watching Inner destroy Moka's life and the worst part of it was when Inner latched onto Tsukune, using him to suit her needs and wrapping him around Outer Moka's finger. Along with draining his blood, knowing he was a Dragonborn and only paying heeds to her nearly undefeatable, not caring about how Dragonborn blood had nasty consequences towards the vampire.

Ghoul Moka could only sadly shake her head as she watched Inner tear apart Moka's life with her rancid personality and pride and soon she would pay. Ghoul Moka swore she would make Inner pay dearly and when she got out of here, she would teach her a lesson she will never forget as long as she will live.


Ending it! I am ending the chapter! The next chapter will go back to Moka and you will see what will happen from there. I hope you like this chapter and the next one. See you all later!
