Everything was so red. Tsukune's heart was echoing in his ears. He wondered when he became such a monster.

'Let me consume you.'

Not yet. He had to wait to until she was in front of him. He would lose all control. He would have no mercy and maybe not even spare her life. He looked at the people on the floor. They were all injured and bleeding.

They were alive at least. Tsukune let out a malice laugh. He walked over some of the bodies that were groaning in pain. He continued to walk the hall. He could hear the fighting going on behind him, but he couldn't care less. He had to get to her.

He had to destroy her before she destroyed everything he ever loved. That's right. It was her fault that everything was ruined! She destroyed his paradise. She needed to pay for what she had done.

He was killing two birds with one stone. He would get revenge and would create a better future.

Tsukune walked into Gyokuro's office. His expression was unreadable. His shirt covered in blood. She simply gave him an amused smile.

"You have made it far, young one." She said with a smile, "I'm impressed. You have truly caught my attention."

"If you give up now I won't have to hurt you." Tsukune said monotone.

She let out a loud laugh, "Darling, you wouldn't be able to hurt me. Not now not ever."

"I'm already taking down your whole organization." Tsukune warned.

Gyokuro waved her hand in dismissal, "You destroyed some people who work for me. I can find new people, rebuild buildings, and re-influence everyone all over again. If you'd like, you may join me in the power and glory. I could use an ally like you."

"Over my dead body." Tsukune said, "Now get up from your chair and prepare to die!"

She gave him an uninterested look. It was as though he were a child. She would humor him though. She stood up from her chair and walked over to him. He aimed a hit at her.

She dodged it without struggle and shot her hand deep within his stomach. She looked at his facial expression as her hand went though his stomach to his back. She did love his expression. It was filled with hate and a slight hint of pain. How amusing.

"Did you honestly think that that would win you the fight?" She sighed, "I expected so much more. Mmmmm, well, not really."

She let his body drop to the floor. She walked around him like a vulture as he spat out blood. She had to admit he did smell tasty. He took out a water bottle and tried to wet her. He was too slow and only got her a little wet.

It stung, but nothing to truly hurt her. She kicked his back so his face was touching the cool tile. She admired his effort as he tried to get back up. She slowly kneed down and pushed his body back to the floor.

She bit his neck. There was no reason to let his blood go to waste. Actually his blood was really, really good. The best she had had in years. It was human blood mixed with overwhelming ayashi blood.

It was an intoxicating drink. She was ashamed to admit she let her guard down, so when the headmaster stabbed her in the back, it was a good clean blow. She quickly jumped away. She let out a laugh. What a good plan, distract her with the bait.

Tsukune slowly got back on his feet. The headmaster nodded at him. He slowly transformed into the ghoul. He grew wings and his hair, skin, and eyes changed color. He launched himself at her. For a moment she wondered why he wasn't completely attacking her, but just holding her down.

Then she heard the Headmaster mumbling something. Shit. They were going to put a spell on her or something. She quickly tried to escape, but Tsukune held her down. He bit her, hit her, and even though he struggled to keep her down he managed. She felt something around her neck and howled in pain.

They were putting a rosary on her chest? Why? The Headmaster also covered them in water. Tsukune was unaffected but she couldn't really say the same.

Kokoa took deep breaths to regain the force to walk. Damn, there were a lot of them. The whole group looked exhausted, but they managed to do it. They had token down the whole building. Kurumu was in Akasha's arms.

Kokoa could tell Akasha was tired by the look in her eyes, but to everyone else she looked perfectly fine. Kurumu had been unharmed, but had they been a minute late she would have had a bad fate. Kokoa took no mercy on those perverse men. She had of course mad sure Kurumu saw no such violence. Akasha had Kurumu's head covered with a blanket so when they walked down the crimson halls, Kurumu wouldn't see it.

Kokoa slightly looked over at Akasha and gave her a weak smile. Akasha smiled back after a moment. The three women slowly walked to the car. The rest of the group started to leave as soon as they were sure everything was okay. They had succeeded in their mission. They could only hope the other group did the same.

"I wanna go back home." Kurumu softly sobbed.

Kokoa started the car and smiled at the little girl, "Yeah. You're mom is already waiting for you with a big batch of cookies and sweets that will probably make a fat kid."

"Kokoa!" Akasha scwolded.

Kokoa smiled at her.

"I thought…erg…I thought that making you human would be a worse punishment…" Tsukune said slowly.

He was bleeding profusely. His eyelids felt heavy, but he felt almost content.

"You'll die!" She yelled furiously, "I killed you! I will take off this stupid rosary!"

Tsukune let out a small chuckle before coughing more blood out. He was leaned against the wall, she was in the center of the room tied up, and the headmaster sat in her chair with a smirk.

"You see…I thought about having mercy…and-and leaving you like-like this…but you showed no mercy to my friends….so…so burn in the depths of hell." Tsukune weakly lifted a gun that the headmaster had given him and shot her and shot her until he ran out of bullets.

"How do you feel, boy?"The headmaster asked.

Tsukune's breathing was slowing down, "I…I feel…empty…"

"Was it worth it?" The headmaster walked to the boy.

Tsukune weakly smiled, "I…hope so…now they won't die…because of this…"

"But you will." The headmaster kneeled down beside the dying young man.

"I…I don't," Tsukune paused for more breath, "I don't know if I'd want to die…any other way."

"How so?" The Headmaster asked.

"Saving…saving the people I love…even if they won't remember…who I am…or know what I-I did…I can die in peace…"

"But you feel empty." The headmaster said, "Is it really enough to love? Enough to die for them?"

"Y-yes," Tsukune's eyes felt so heavy.

"You are so entertaining, I believe I owe you something." The Headmaster said with a wicked smile.

Tsukune couldn't respond anymore. He just saw the light fading. He felt his body slowly numb. He jumped back up when the Headmaster stabbed him with an odd looking knife while mumbling some words. Tsukune wasn't sure if it was in a different language or if he simply didn't understand anymore. He just knew the last thing he saw before he died was the Headmaster wickedly smiling at him.
