Hello Readers, AnonymousAK here. Before I start, let me say this.
-REVIEW! I can't stress this enough.
-To ZERO, thank you, and if you read chapter three, you'll understand what I'm doing.
-All I need now is Mizore, Ruby, the PSC, and Kokoa and I can get to my actual story.
-Another thing, I won't have a good grasp of times in my chapters. But I'll see what I can do. It is my story after all.
-That's all I got for right now.THANKS!
It was the day after Kurai and his friends dealt with the Swimming Club and joined Miss Nekonome's Newspaper Club. At first he wasn't so enthusiastic, but he had a change of heart after Moka sweet talked him into being more cheerful about this.
Kurai was in his room late at night, looking through what was in the package. He had changed out of his school uniform, and was now wearing a white t-shirt, and gray sweatpants. His clock read 9:46 PM
"This could help a lot." He said as he examined the contents.
All of a sudden he heard a distant screaming coming from the girls dorm, he looked out the window.
He saw a lone figure running through the roof of the girls dorm.
"Why is it always something?" He said to himself.
Kurai took a deep breath and in a quick puff of smoke, he teleported.
The figure was running through the rooftop when he was blinded by a sudden flash of smoke. The figure got a better look, and saw a boy blocking his path. The figure turned around and made a run for it.
"HEY!" Kurai exclaimed as he gave pursuit.
Kurai couldn't get a good look at him, because there were clouds covering the moonlight. But he noticed how fast his runner was, even without shoes on, Kurai was just as fast, and was catching up to him.
The clouds covering the moon passed away, giving off more light. Kurai got a better look, he noticed that the figure was wearing the Yokai Academy male uniform, and he had also noticed; A tail?
That was the last thing he saw before the figure disappeared. Kurai stopped running and took a minute to catch his breath.
"Shit." He said in between breaths.
Kurai looked off the roof to see if he could find him. But he was long gone.
"Next time." Kurai said before he teleported again.
Currently Tsukune and Moka were making their way to the school, to begin the day.
"Are you excited about today, Tsukune?" Moka asked. Barely able to contain her own excitement.
"Yeah, I'm just hoping that I won't have to worry about fighting anyone." Tsukune replied. "I mean ever since I've been here, I've been in a fight at least once a week."
Moka had a downcast look. "I'm sorry." she told Tsukune.
Tsukune went into a small panic. "No, No! It's not your fault!" Tsukune explained. "I mean what kind of friend would I be if I didn't help out my friend no matter what."
Moka looked at him with sparkles in her eyes. "Really!?" she exclaimed.
"Yeah." Tsukune answered. "You're my friend, Moka, and I would do anything for you."
"Tsukune…" Moka said with a blush.
Tsukune blushed when he saw Moka blush and look at him lovingly. "Moka..."
"Tsukune…" she said leaning in closer to him, her breath tickling his throat, "You… smell so good…"
Tsukune wasn't paying much attention, but when the words finally registered his eyes went wide. "Wait! Moka..." he tried to reason.
"Oh, Tsukune… I can't help it when I'm around you." she exclaimed as she lunged forward and lightly nipped him in the neck, sucking his blood.
CHUUU!
After Moka was done, she pulled away, cupping her face, as she blushed a crimson red. "As always, your blood so so yummy. I think I'm hooked on it." she complimented.
Tsukune just stood there with a sweat drop on his head.
"Why do I fell like if I'm not careful, this'll be the death of me?" he thought.
Kurai had walked up. He was looking around all the students passing by with a quizful look.
"Hi Kurai." Moka yelled cheerfully, getting his attention.
"Hey." Tsukune said weakly, with a look that said 'HELP ME!'
"Hey gu.." he was interrupted.
"Tsukune!" Kurumu called out.
All three turned to face the direction they heard Kurumu's voice only for her to pounce and latch onto Tsukune, pressing his face into her breasts.
"Today's the first day we all join in the Newspaper Club. And I'm so happy that I get to be in it with you!" she exclaimed as she smothered Tsukune.
'I take back my earlier thought!' Tsukune screamed in his head. He couldn't very well shout it out loud. 'This is going to be the death of me!'
"Kurumu! Stop it!" Yukari shouted as she magically appeared. "I joined the club, too. So give me a chance with Tsukune!" She ran up and attempted to glomp Tsukune.
But Kurumu pulled him away before either Yukari or Moka could pull him back. "Too slow!" she told the two. Kurumu smirked at the two, but more at Moka.
'I'm not giving up. Tsukune's my Destined One, and the bond between us will grow stronger by being in this club together.' She glared daggers at Moka, who seemed to return the glare. 'I'm not about to share him with you, Moka. He'll fall in love with me, and you'll just be an afterthought.' She thought to herself.
As the two older girls were glaring down one another, Yukari was the first to notice that Tsukune's body was struggling to break free, until a gasp was made, and it suddenly went limp. Yukari panicked, getting the girls' attention,
"OH NO, KURUMU! YOU'RE SMOTHERING Tsukune! HE'S DEAD!"
The girls stopped their staring, as Kurumu released Tsukune from her hold. His face was all blue and his eyes swirling around; the only audible sound he made was a small moan. The girls panicked in thinking they killed the boy, or rather they panicked as they attempted to bring him back, as Moka pleaded, "No, Tsukune! Stay away from the light!"
Kurai walked off, heading to class. "CALL ME IF YOU NEED HELP BURYING THE BODY." He yelled as he kept walking, laughing at his own joke.
After the five were all done with their classes for the day, they made their way to the Newspaper Club Room. When they arrived Miss Nekonome was aleady there. So they came in and sat down and after a few minutes no one else showed up.
"Are we the only ones in the club?" Kurumu asked.
"Of course, not silly!" Miss Nekonome replied with a smile. "The club president will be here shortly, he seems to be running a bit late."
As if on cue the door slid open.
"Here he is now." Miss Nekonome told the group.
The person who walked in was a young man who seemed to be at least a year older than them. He appeared to have a light build on him, but due to his size, it almost looked medium. He was wearing the school uniform, but without the tie and the first few buttons undone, exposing his collar bone. He was also wearing a silver wolf head male choker necklace. He had black hair which seemed to be untamed and held back by a red headband. And in his arms were two bouquets of flowers.
"Oh man. The first day and I'm already late." the boy said with a sigh, as he made his way to the head of the classroom. "Hey. My name's Ginei Morioka. Just call me Gin for short. Let's try to get along shall we?"
Gin then made his way to meet the group of new club members. "I got to say this club lucked out to have girls as pretty as you two joining up." he said with charming smile, as he handed the two bundles of flowers to Moka and Kurumu.
Moka flushed slightly while Kurumu took it in stride. Kurumu was used to getting such flattering compliments. But Moka never considered herself that pretty so getting compliments was still new to her.
"And you must be the child genius Yukari Sendo." Gin said while still smiling as he pulled a rose from his inner coat pocket for the youngest of the four. "I guess it's true what they say: Big things come in Small Packages. Welcome aboard."
Kurai rolled his eyes. "Oh barf me." He said to himself.
Tsukune couldn't believe how smooth this guy was, although he felt jealous when he gave Moka flowers.
He turned to Tsukune.
"You must be Tsukune Aono, let me tell you that you're a lucky man to have such three beautiful ladies, all of which are in love with you." He said grinning.
Tsukune couldn't help but chuckle nervously as the girls were blushing madly behind him.
Then Ginei turned to Kurai. When they made eye contact, Gin looked like he had seen a ghost. But he got his composure back.
"And you are..." He snapped his fingers repeatedly, trying to figure out his name.
"Kurai Kage." Kurai said, with what sounded like a serious tone in his voice.
Gin suddenly remembered. "Ah yes, Kurai Kage, you're the one who possesses weird powers, and is said to be a badass in a fight. I should write an article about you sometime."
"I'll pass." Kurai replied. "Me being popular seems to bring me nothing but trouble." Kurai couldn't put his finger on it, but he was getting a bad aura from Gin.
"Too bad. But, I'm not giving up." Gin told Kurai.
"Well, it looks like things are under control." Miss Nekonome said to the club with a smile. "I have to attend a faculty meeting, so I'll leave things in Gin's hands then. See you later!" Miss Nekonome waved good-bye as she left the class.
Gin saw this as his cue and walked up to the front of the classroom and stood at the podium. He leaned on the wooden stand and looked out at his new club members. "Okay, for all you newbies, the School Newspaper is the source of all information and news all things Yokai Academy." Gin explained. "As such, we search out news everywhere to report to the students."
"Yeah!" Moka and the girls cheered. Kurai gave an enthusiastic hoorah.
"I think I just died a little inside." Kurai thought
Seeing the new club member's enthusiasm, Gin decided to continue.
"You all better be ready, BECAUSE THIS CLUB IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART. He nearly yelled. Getting everyone's attention.
"In this club you would have to do anything, even risk your life for a story." He continued
Everyone was onboard, but they were surprised about how serious he was.
"I've already found a scoop for your first story." Kurumu said, turning even more serious.
"There have been numerous reports of someone peeking in on the girls changing rooms, and the girls' dorms. All these incidents happened at night, with only a few girls only catching a silhouette and nothing else. No one has been able to get a good look at him and he's been gone so fast no one else has managed to catch him in the act." She explained.
Before she could continue, Kurai stepped in.
"I confronted him last night." Kurai said. Everyone in the room had his eyes on him.
"Really, what did he look like? Moka replied
"I couldn't tell, it was too dark, and he had his back to me the entire time, so I couldn't see his face. All I know was when I chased him, he had a tail sticking out, so he must have been in his monster form." Kurai explained.
Everyone was on the edge of their seats, while Kurai continued.
"Another thing I noticed is that, he was incredibly fast, I could barely keep up with him myself. And at one point he disappeared with the wind." Kurai was done explaining.
"Man, what kind of pathetic guy does something like that?" Moka asked, with a scowl. If there was one thing that Moka hated the most in the world, it was perverts. And that was thanks to the hundreds of guys gawking her a day.
"I'm not sure." Gin answered. "Our first assignment is to interview people who claim they saw this guy. Lesson Number One: a journalist's strongest resource is the people. We're also going to be putting up posters for the Newspaper club while we're at it."
"Don't you think we should be more concerned about catching this peeping tom, than getting more club members?" Kurai asked.
The girls were nodding their heads in agreement.
"We are." Gin replied. "We won't be able to talk to or even find all the people who have saw the guy. So, I added a nice little bit to the poster." he said while holding one up for them to see.
Tsukune took a close look at it and sure enough at the bottom of the poster it read: If you have or know anyone with information on the Peeping Tom contact the Newspaper Club, in Classroom 3-1.
"That will helps us out in the long run." Tsukune commented.
"Alright, let's catch this guy!" Gin exclaimed.
"Yeah!" the girls cried.
And so the girls went around putting up the posters while, Tsukune and Gin questioned of few of the girls that they could find who caught a glimpse of the peeper. But, it didn't go so well with Gin flirting with every girl they talked to.
Kurai was off doing research, and asking other witnesses
So, the two guys met up with the girls in the main hallway.
"Did you find anything?" Moka asked curiously.
"Not a thing." Tsukune replied. "And the little information we did manage to get isn't all that helpful."
"I found nothing." Said a voice, they turned to see Kurai, coming up behind him. "I looked at some books in the library, but none of them helped at all. I even talked to the victim from last night."
"What she say?" Tsukune asked.
"Pretty much the same thing as the others; all she saw was a shadow of the bastard." Kurai responded.
"He's a slippery one." Gin muttered.
"So you have nothing?" asked Kurumu disappointedly.
"Don't worry we'll just have to do this the old fashion way and catch him in the act." Gin said trying to cheer the gang up. "Let's finish putting up the posters and call it a day. Tsukune why don't you and Kurai put these up over there while, I'll make sure the girls don't hurt themselves?" Gin told him as he motioned to the other side of the hall.
"Got it," Tsukune nodded, as he and Kurai ran over to the other side of the hallway.
Yukari popped up, and hiped up, "Anything I can do?"
"Nothing yet," Gin reassured her, but pointed out, "If you want, you can go get snacks. I have a feeling we'll be pulling an all luncher." Yukari looked confused by that comment, as he explained, "That means we'll probably be skipping lunch."
"Oh, okay, got it," the little witch understood, and took off.
After Tsukune was done with his posters, he started back to where the others were, but stopped for a moment. Once he was in eyesight of the others, he noticed Gin kneeling down, and smirking at something. He arched an eyebrow in confusion as he cautiously walked over,
"What is he doing?" He thought as he walked over.
He slowly walked over, making sure not to make a sound, and looked at Gin, who didn't seem to pay much notice to him. He then turned to where Gin was looking, and saw he was looking at the girls. Though he wasn't sure that it was the girl's he was looking at, due to the flush on Gin's face. He knelt down, just to get at his eye level, and looked up, only to get a first front row seat of Moka's and Kurumu's panties.
He paled at this as he went bug-eyed, "WHAT THE HELL?! HE'S CHECKING OUT THEIR UDNERWEAR!" He yelled in his thoughts.
He sharply turned to Gin as he stood, up and shouted, "Gin! What the hell are you doing?!"
Gin immediately got up, and looked away, acting innocent, as Moka and Kurumu turned around to see what all the shouting was about. Kurai showed up after hearing the yelling, as did Yukari, who had just come back from the school's store with a bag of snacks. But Gin shrugged, "I don't know what you're talking about, Tsukune."
"You know exactly what I'm talking about," Tsukune persisted.
"Um, what's going on," Moka asked, oblivious as to what happened a while ago.
Gin shrugged, "Oh, it's nothing much. Tsukune's getting all frustrated that I caught him spying up your skirts."
"WHAAAT?!" both the girls and Tsukune shouted in surprise, Moka and Kurumu shocked at this turn of events, and Tsukune of being accused as the pervert.
The two girls ganged up on him, as they glared daggers of disgust at him, "Tsukune!"
Tsukune shrunk back, as he tried to defend himself, "Girls, I swear. I didn't look!" Tsukune scratched his cheek with a bit of shame, "Although, I only peeked for a second, but that's not the point! Gin saw them first; I was only looking just to see what he was looking at!"
"Dude, you're not helping yourself." Kurai said.
The girls didn't care much about the explanation, as they were too miffed at Tsukune's perverted actions. So, for once in their quarreling battle for Tsukune's affections, they double-slapped him in the face. The poor boy was disoriented with two red hand marks on his face, as the attack was pretty powerful due to their monster strength, and him secretly being a mere mortal human.
Kurumu came to her senses, as she apologized.
"Oh, I'm sorry, Tsukune! My hand just slipped." She then shyly walked away, dragging an equally miffed Yukari, "But seriously, Tsukune. If you wanted to see my panties, all you had to do was ask."
Tsukune regained a bit of his senses, as he shook it off, and then saw a much fuming but calm Moka. She walked past him, as he tried to reason with her, "Moka, I would never do that to anyone. Not even you; especially you!"
She stopped in her tracks, but kept her back turned to him. Her face was hidden by her bangs, until she finally spoke up, sounding rather upset and hurt, "Tsukune… I hate perverts." And stormed off, leaving Tsukune shattered and defeated by those three words.
Gin shrugged, "Thanks, Tsukune. Our first club meeting's over a lot faster than I thought." And just walked away, without a care in the world.
"That's what you get for peeping." Kurai said as he left the meeting.
Tsukune's defeated sorrow disappeared, as his fists clenched up, seemingly angry that he just took the fall and made the scapegoat. Until he finally shouted out ot the ceiling, "What the hell?!"
Meanwhile, Moka had went to the girl's restroom, she had washed her hands, it was sparking a little bit, but it was bearable.
After washing her hands, Moka looked to the mirror, a look of flustered frustration written upon it. She sighed, not believing that Tsukune had done such a thing. But the evidence was written on Tsukune's face when Gin made mention of what he had done. She just couldn't believe it. She looked at the mirror, fuming in her mind, "That's so gross; I feel so dirty."
She sighed, as she grabbed her skirt, in fear of someone else peeping, "Was Tsukune really peeping?" But then, another thought popped in her head, as she blushed.
"But still… which one's did I wear?' Slightly fearful and curious, she slowly lifted the skirt, just enough to try and see the reflection of them…
'What are you doing?' Inner Moka spoke up through the Rosario, startling Moka as she screamed in fright. 'Calm down. I don't know of what's going on around here, but I'd keep an eye out for that Morioka.'
"Gin?" Moka asked.
'I can't say for certain,' Inner Moka advised, 'But I sense something dangerous about him; so be extra careful around him.'
Moka blinked in confusion on that, just as the Rosario went silent again.
Later at night, at the dorm roofs, Gin stood there, gazing at the moon as if the maiden of the Moon was calling out to him. He smirked at the glowing orb.
"Another beautiful full moon." He said
He then gazed down near the Girls' dorm, and spotted Moka's room window. There, he saw the pinkette vampire, sleeping peacefully in her bed and covers. The boy let out a small wolfish grin spread across his face.
"But… it can't compare to you, Moka Akashiya. My little Moka."
And suddenly, a large howl pierced the quiet night air, and then went silent as it died out.
Kurai was in his bathroom, violently vomiting in his toilet. After a few minutes of dry heaving, Kurai washed his mouth, and popped a piece of peppermint gum in his mouth.
After a few minutes of chewing, he spit it out, and walked to his desk. His headache had returned earlier, and it was as excruciating as ever.
Kurai took his knife out of his pocket, and approached the dead crow that was lying on his desk.
He stroked the lifeless animal. "Don't worry little one." He whispered to it as he continued petting it as if it was still alive.
"Even in death, you still serve a purpose." He slashed the palm of his hand with the knife, causing it to severely bleed. Drops of blood fell on the desk, and the blood moved on it's own. It moved around until the multiple drops surrounded the bird, and formed a circle around it. Wisps of white mists were rising from the bird, and flew into Kurai's mouth.
After he ingested the mist, he took a deep breath, and the wound on his hand began to rapidly heal, until there was nothing but a scar.
Tsukune walked behind Moka, not really sure if she wanted to talk to him. This was kind of a first in the morning, seeing as how he knew the routine. Moka would run up to him, catch him in a hugged embrace, then have her morning quota of his blood. And usually Kurumu would run up and jump on him, usually pressing his face into her boobs, and unknowingly suffocated. Then Yukari would show, wand waving and pan-smashing Kurumu away, trying to get him and Moka together, all for the sake of her threesome plan. Though today, it didn't probably due to him being framed of being a peeper.
He wanted to talk to Moka, but the look on her face, and what she said yesterday, it wasn't gonna happen. He sighed, as he knew the truth.
"She's never gonna talk to me again." He said to himself
Moka stuck out her tongue playfully, as she kept her distance from Tsukune.
"I know it seems like I'm not going to talk to him again, but a healthy dose of the silent treatment should be enough for a hard lesson learned. He's got to know there are consequences for looking up my skirt." She thought to herself
But she slightly turned to face him, and saw the depressed look on his face, though he didn't notice her looking at him. She turned forward again, and her smile just faded.
"But still… he could at least try to talk to me." She thought as she continued walking.
Some of the girls were changing or getting a shower as the P.E. session they had gone through was over. And as fate would have it, Gin was walking past that area outside, as he stopped to hear the girls conversing. He scooted over, hoping to get a 'juicy' lead. One of the cheerleaders, smirking with glee, gossiped with a few of her friends.
The first girl asked her friends, "So is it true with all the rumors going on? Are Tsukune and Moka really dating?"
That caused Gin's ears to perk up suddenly, listening in on the conversation. The second girl shrugged, "You know, I'm not really sure, but they have been seen going everywhere together."
"What about that creepy kid that's always hanging around them. I think his name was Ko-Re-a Cogi." The first girl asked.
"Kurai Kage!" The second girl said. "He's in my third period science class. I'm pretty sure they're just friends. He's not creepy, although he is cute." She started to sigh dreamingly.
Gin sighed after hearing this. Kurai was the last person he wanted to think about, he was really starting to get sick of that guy.
"I've heard that some of the other students see them together… and that she kisses him on the neck." A third girl stated, Gin scowled and his eyes bulged at this piece of information.
The girls sighed, envious of Moka's supposed romantic experience. However, Gin was growling or teething as a vein popped on his forehead and his upper face was covered in shadows. Until finally, he shot up from his seat, holding his head with his hands, and wept out loud hysterically.
"Going out together? KISSING ON THE NECK?" He now just imagined them all alone, in a bedroom, all over each other under the covers; his beloved Moka giving herself to that loser Tsukune, "AAAAAAAAAA AAH! THIS IS NO JOKE! YOU GOTTA BE FREAKIN' KIDDING ME! TSUKUNE, YOU"RE A DEAD MAN!
The girls just stepped back for a moment, after hearing that uproar, they opened the window… just to see no one. They shrugged and closed the window, shrugging as they went back to getting dressed.
Gin, who was now on the roof above the changing room, finally took a breather as he finally calmed down. He glared at the floor and thought to himself.
"I need to take precautions. I've got to split those two apart." But then, eh thought about it, "And I think I know how to do it." He suddenly remembered what Moka said the other day,
Tsukune… I hate perverts.
Gin smirked, a scheme already percolating in his mind.
The girls all sat in one corner, while Tsukune sat in another. They were slightly avoiding him like a plague victim, all simply because they had spotted him peeping up their skirts. Although, the girls were in the club room first, just chatting about the leads they had found, and then Tsukune walked in the room. Once he was in there, they were giving him the silent treatment, and turned away not even looking at him. Sighing in defeat, he walked away from them, still keeping his distance from them, as he sat at an empty chair. It wasn't the best time for the club at this moment.
He sighed, as he pulled out a folder, containing some info on the peeper, and looked at the evidence… alone. Although he had been slightly caught peeping, Yukari whispered to the girls.
"You know, I know Tsukune's a guy and all. But I never once saw him try to do what Gin said he'd do."
The other girls looked at each other, a bit unsure of their accusation. They were going to walk over to him and talk to him, until Gin popped up in the room, with info.
"Heads up, guys. I think I just found a lead." He then pointed out.
"One of the girls I interviewed mentioned she saw someone suspicious over at one corner of campus. I think it sounds like a solid lead." He explained
"You think so?" Wondered Tsukune, forgetting that the girls were ignoring him. "Where is it?"
"Near the edge of campus," Gin answered. "You know, one of those back lot places like where the incinerator is kept. No one goes there, but lots of people can see it. It actually makes for a good place for privacy."
"I'll bet that pervert has been creeping around there!" Kurumu growled as she clenched her hands. "I can't wait to give him what for!"
"You'll get your chance," Gin nodded. "Anyway, Tsukune, I want you to help me investigate this lead. I want the girls to keep putting up posters while we investigate. It shouldn't take too long."
"You got it!" Yukari smiled with a thumb's up.
"Great," Gin grinned. "Okay, Tsukune, let's get a move on. The sooner we investigate, the sooner we can catch this guy."
"I'm on it!" Tsukune nodded as he got up.
As he past Moka, she slowly got up, and tried to call him out, "Ah, Tsukune. Wait, I…" But he and Gin were already gone; she slumped back in her chair, and sighed sadly, "There goes my chance to apologize."
Kurai walked up to her and patted her shoulder." Don't worry, you'll get your chance later." Kurai said trying to cheer her up.
Moka beamed. "Thanks Kurai." Moka said, feeling relieved.
The two young men headed around to the back of the school. It looked pretty bare save for the wall of a building with a small window and a nearby barrel. Tsukune looked around, finding that it didn't look too much like a secret hideout. In fact, it looked like no one would go there period.
"Are you sure this is the place?" Tsukune asked uncertainly.
"From what my sources tell me," Gin nodded. "I think he must be inside. Think you can take a look?"
"Um…" Tsukune mumbled as he looked around for something to stand on. For some reason, he was beginning to get a bad feeling about all this.
"You can get on this barrel over here," Gin announced as he pushed the metal barrel from before over. "It feels pretty solid, but you'd better get on top of it. You look lighter so you had better do the lookout. I'll keep it from falling."
"Okay," Tsukune nodded. Tsukune stepped onto the barrel in question and stood up. He kept himself steady and gripped the windowsill for balance. After making sure he wasn't going to fall, he dared to take a look inside.
"So, Tsukune, what do you think of Moka?" Gin asked, stopping Tsukune from looking into the room. "I mean, do ya think she's cute?"
That question got Tsukune blushing a bit, as he gulped, looking rather bashful.
"Well, she's um… I mean. Well, she's the first girl to actually talk to me, and kind of put up with me." But he smirked, "Actually… I think she's pretty."
"Really?" Gin smirked, as he turned away, hiding a glint in his teeth, "Because honestly, I thought she was smokin' hot when I saw her. And I thought to myself, I want her in my pack."
Tsukune arched an eyebrow at that, but returned to the task at hand as he looked inside. What he saw threatened to make him break out in a sudden nosebleed…or make him grin like an idiot. What he saw was a bunch of girls who attended Yokai Academy. They were all in various forms of undress, revealing their underwear and a lot of their bodies. Apparently the girls of Yokai Academy liked to wear frilly underwear too.
"Wagh!" Tsukune cried as he fell backwards and onto the dirt. He gasped for a moment to catch his breath. "Wait a minute! That…that was…"
"The girls' changing room, I know," Gin chuckled. Tsukune looked over and saw that he was holding a camera up to Tsukune and not holding the barrel like he said he was. "Enjoy the view?"
"Huh? Wha-?" Tsukune gaped. "What the heck is going on?!"
"I'm catching the Peeping Tom, of course," Gin chuckled as he turned the digital camera around and revealed a picture of Tsukune looking into the locker room. "Bet Moka won't be too happy with you when she sees this shot."
"What!?" shouted out Tsukune. He then realized it. "You set me up!"
Of course, the girls had heard him.
"What was that?!"
"Is it the Peeping Tom?"
"Sounded like a guy!"
"Now that was a dumb move. Those girls are gonna come out here in force," Gin chuckled.
"Why are you doing this?" asked Tsukune in anger.
Gin answered, glaring darkly at Tsukune, "I'm willing to do anything to get my hands on a pretty girl like Moka. You're an obstacle that in my way. Sorry, but all's fair in love and war. Later, man." With a wave, Gin vanished in a blur.
Tsukune gaped as his club president vanished. Still, he had something else to worry about as he heard shouting.
"It's him!"
"The Peeping Tom!"
"Get him!"
"Oh, man!" Tsukune gulped, as he saw the angry mob of girls with various make-shift weapons, mainly brooms, baseball bats and mops. They were all glaring at him with a look of murder.
One of them spoke up. "So you're the peeping tom?"
Another one spoke up. "You might as well fess up!"
Tsukune tried to reason with them. "Listen you have the wrong idea, I'm not the peeping tom."
"Oh, then why were you staring out the window, that looked like peeping to me."
Tsukune tried to explain, just when he thought the situation couldn't get worse.
"Tsukune?" A familiar voice said.
Tsukune looked to see Moka standing there, she looked distraught.
"Moka wait, it's not what you think." He sighed. "It's true I did see them, but that was because..." Moka ran before he could finish.
"Moka wait!" Tsukune yelled trying to get up, but the mob of girls crowded him.
"YOU FILTHY PERV!" They all yelled as they began mercilessly beating him. They would either stomp on him, or beat him with their weapons.
After seven minutes of that ruthless beating, Tsukune finally fell unconscious, and his attackers left in groups, leaving him behind.
Meanwhile, Yukari and Kurumu were in the newspaper club's headquarters, talking about something interesting.
"What? Tsukune?" Kurumu asked.
"Yeah, he was seen peeping in the girls locker room. That's the big story on campus right now." Yukari responded.
Kurumu looked angry, but it was for the wrong reason. "I don't buy it, there's know way Tsukune would look at any other girl than me."
Yukari chuckled, she couldn't believe that Kurumu wasn't taking this serious.
Kurumu caught her mistake and tried a different approach. "What I mean is, we in the newspaper club, are going to figure this out."
Yukari nodded in agreement.
Later on that night Moka was up on the roof of the girl's dorm thinking about what was now going around the school.
Tsukune had apparently been caught by the girls in the changing room trying to peak on them. And now every one in the school believed Tsukune was the Peeping Tom.
'Tsukune wouldn't do that. Not after what he said the other day. Would he?' Moka thought.
"Hey, what you doing up here."
Moka turned and saw Gin walk up to her.
"Oh, hey Gin." Moka said glumly.
"It's pretty late, isn't it? Although I cant blame you, the full moon sure does look beautiful. Almost like you." He said smooth like.
Tsukune was still passed out where the girls left him. Kurai was walking by when he noticed his friend passed out and bruised.
Kurai pinched the bridge of his nose. "This is getting ridiculous." He said as he walked up to him.
Kurai place his hand on Tsukune's face and released a bright blue energy on him.
Tsukune suddenly sat straight up, he noticed his bruises were starting to fade.
"Did the peeping tom enjoy his beat down?" Kurai mocked.
"Shut up." Tsukune said getting up.
Tsukune suddenly remembered something.
"Kurai, you've got to hear me out, it's Gin, he's..."
"He's actually the peeping tom, and he framed you so you would look bad in front of Moka because she hates perverts. He also did it just so he can have a shot at Moka." Kurai interrupted.
Tsukune's mouth hung open.
Kurai smirked. "Am I right?" He said rhetorically.
Tsukune just shook it off. "We have to find her."
"I might know where she is." Kurai said as they both ran to the school.
"Jeez, is there any thing you can't do?" Tsukune asked.
"Like I said, I am simply one hell of a Demon." Kurai responded.
"No, I know Tsukune." Moka said, trying to defend him. "He would never do something like that."
"Come on Moka, face facts. Look at the picture if you don't believe me." Ginei showed her a picture of Tsukune looking out the window.
"But, Tsukune..." Moka whispered.
Gin was getting fed up as he continued to wave the picture around, "Be realistic, Moka! Photos don't lie! Who are you gonna believe? Him or me?"
"Who we shouldn't believe is you!"
Both students turned to where the voice was coming from. It turned out to be Kurumu and Yukari. Both were dressed up like detectives. Kurumu was in a Sherlock Holmes getup while Yukari was in something like a Japanese detective getup. Both of them looked pretty serious despite the situation and what they were wearing. Moka was just wondering where they had gotten their outfits.
"Kurumu? Yukari?" Moka asked in surprise.
"What are you two girls doing up here?" asked Gin.
"And what's with the detective costumes?" added Moka, equally confused.
"The outfits seemed like a good idea at the time," Yukari smirked. "They helped set the mood we had to be in for this."
"You see, Moka," began Kurumu. "After the news got out, me and Yukari did some investigating to clear Tsukune's name."
"Of course Tsukune would never do such a thing as peep," added Yukari, "So we looked for clues."
"Take a look at these photos!" Kurumu cried as she brought out several shots of Tsukune's 'peeping' that they had gotten for themselves. "We can only see the top half of Tsukune!
"That's a good point, Gin told me he was standing on a drum." Moka agreed. She then turned to Gin. "How did you know?"
"T-that's," Gin gulped. "That's because I went to the scene after all the excitement. Since the barrel was there I assumed he used it. I've never been there so I had to guess."
"So you also know that Tsukune had moved the barrel originally?" asked Yukari skeptically.
"He had to," Gin answered. "I mean, there was nothing else there originally."
"Oh?" Kurumu smirked, seeing her opportunity. "Didn't you just say that you had never been there before? How would you know that nothing was there originally?"
"Uh?" Gin gulped.
"Obviously you knew that there was a good peeping spot there," Yukari answered while folding her arms.
Gin grimaced, realizing that he had been caught in a lie. He broke out in a cold sweat for a moment before he managed to put on a cool smile.
"Okay, okay. I have been there before. I also know that the barrels could be used for support, but c'mon. There's no proof that I was there." Gin said
"Sure we can, President," Kurumu smirked.
"Huh?" Gin blinked in shock.
"You see, the female students had taken those barrels away since they didn't want anyone else using those barrels to peep inside."
"In other words," Kurumu added. "Those barrels were there for the crime and immediately afterwards. Besides those at the scene, it was impossible for anyone else to know those barrels were there! We even have a witness who said you had moved those barrels there before the crime happened!"
"The witness being Miss Nekonome," Yukari replied.
"Then that means…" Moka gasped as realization came to her.
"The real criminal…is YOU!" both Kurumu and Yukari cried as they pointed at Gin accusingly.
"Uh…uh…," Gin gulped as he backed away. As he stepped, several photos fell out of his jacket. All of them depicted girls in obvious forms of undress and completely unaware that anyone was watching them.
All of a sudden, Kurai and Tsukune ran through the door to the rooftop.
Tsukune spoke up, "Guy's listen, Ginei is not who yo.."
"Don't worry Tsukune, we just cleared your name. You should have been there." Kurumu said.
Kurai was looking at their outfits, before they could explain, he held up his hand.
"I don't even want to know." He said.
With this undeniable proof, Gin knew that he was busted. "Enough of this!" Gin frowned angrily. "I really didn't want to do this, but I've got no choice in the matter!"
Gin leaped up into the air with blinding speed before he landed at the other end behind Ben and the girls. Growling, Gin's body began to swell with raw and wild power. His face sprouted gray fur before turning into a canine snout while his ears relocated to the top of his head. His forearms elongated and grew out black curvy sharp claws, with dark and gray fur growing on them. The same thing happened to his feet as they became more canine, and sprouted fur and claws as well. And shooting out from his butt, a great bushy gray tail was present. With his transformation completed, Gin howled at the moon, a fully transformed werewolf.
"A werewolf!" Yukari gasped.
Quick Monster Fact:
A werewolf is a ferocious wild beast-like monster. Normally it is in human form, however, on moonlit nights, it transforms into a werewolf. The relationship between the werewolf and the moon has been known since the 16th Century, with its power increasing based on the strength of the moonlight. A beast of western origin. In exchange for it's lack of a unique ability, it's physical power towers above the rest. Especially in terms of agility, it is said that there is no equal. It possesses a deep connection to the moon, where its strength increases proportional to the intensity of moonlight.
"They're supposed to be on par with vampires in power!" Kurumu cried. "Where Vampires are the most powerful, werewolves are the fastest."
"No wonder you were able to outrun me the other night." Kurai said.
"Because of you, I'm ruined!" roared Gin, as his transformation was completed, "Now, if I can't have Moka by trickery, I'll just use force!" He then charged right after Moka, who was completely unaware to do anything, but cringe and scream.
"MOKA!" Tsukune yelled.
"When hell freezes over!" Kurai exclaimed as he transformed.
Kurai was now in his snake form and slithered to Gin at great speed, just as he was about to bite him. Ginei dissapeared.
"Hey, what are you doing there? I'm over here." Ginei taunted, suddenly standing behind snake Kurai.
Kurai, who couldn't speak, hissed angrily at Gin. Kurai took another lunge at him, but he dissapeared and was behind him again.
"Too slow!" Gin taunted again.
This cycle kept going until Ginei planted his foot on snake Kurai's throat. Just enough to where he couldn't bite him. Kurai had returned to his human form, with Gin still crushing his throat.
"Guess the rumors about you being a badass, was nothing but BULLSHIT!" He yelled as he kicked Kurai in the stomach.
His kick wasn't as powerful as Moka's but it was strong enough to knock the wind out of Kurai. He doubled over, clutching his stomach in pain.
"He's fast," groaned Kurai as he tried to get back on his feet.
"Of course I am!" laughed Gin as he kicked Kurai again. "Look up at the sky!" There was a full moon there. "Because of its light I can use my full power and speed! Face it, Kage, you can't beat me!"
Ginei demonstrated his point by giving Kurai another hard kick to his ribs. Kurai was having a hard time breathing, let alone moving.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!" Ginei laughed at Kurai's pain. He turned noticing that Tsukune was trying to run to Moka.
"OH NO YOU DON'T!" Ginei yelled as he ran incredibly fast at Tsukune.
Ginei slashed at Tsukune, causing him to fall over, and accidentally pull off Moka's rosary.
Ginei walked over to Tsukune, repeatedly stomping him on his back.
"Time to teach you who the alpha male is." Gin said as he continued stomping his foot on Tsukune's back.
"Moka is mine, you got that. If you don't back off. YOU'LL BE NOTHING BUT TABLE SCRAPS!"
All of a sudden, bats started swarming from the skies, and surrounded Moka. Ginei stopped his assault on Tsukune and stared as Moka started to transform.
When the bats cleared away, there stood Inner Moka. Her silver hair was flowing, and her red eyes were glaring at Ginei.
Ginei had a look of fear, but then it turned into a smirk. "So you're a vampire, eh Moka?" He questioned as he eyed her up and down.
He laughed. "Well I'll be honest, this is the best. Cause if a vampire is going to be my woman, then I'm going to have to teach you who the pack leader is." He then lunged at her.
"Get real, you flea bitten mutt." Moka exclaimed as she tried to take a punch at him, only for him to dissapear.
"Hey! What are you aiming at? I'm over here." Ginei said, now standing on the safety rail.
Gin lunged at her, and was moving around her at super fast speed. So fast that as he moved, he looked like a blur. Moka moved her eyes around trying to target him. "Face it Moka." Gin said as he was still moving at an incredible speed. "A werewolf is a tough monster to beat. As the moon gets brighter, we move faster. And tonights the brightest of them all, THE FULL MOON." He howled loudly.
"AWWWWRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"So this is the true power of a werewolf?" Inner Moka thought to herself.
Ginei was about to make a final lunge at Moka, when he was blindside tackled by Kurai.
They both fell to the ground, and Kurai was cringing in pain, holding his ribs. Ginei was the first to get up. Before Kurai could do anything, Gin gave him another kick to the ribs, knocking more wind out of him. Ginei kicked him three more times. After which he picked him up by his throat.
"You had enough yet?" Ginei asked him.
Kurai responded by spitting in Ginei's face.
Ginei took a swipe at Kurai, and slashed three fresh marks on his cheek, his cheek was drenched in blood. Tsukune, Kurumu, and Yukari were staring in horror as their friend was being beaten to near death. Even Moka was surprised at how ruthless Gin was.
"Now I'm gonna ask you again. HAVE YOU HAD ENOUGH?!" Ginei yelled as he began squeezing Kurai's throat.
Kurai was too weak to say anything, or even do anything.
Moka took this as an opportunity to finish the distracted Ginei. She moved fast at him and drew her leg back, ready to kick him square in the back. As she put her foot forward, Ginei sensed her coming and vanished at fast speed once again. He left Kurai falling in midair
Moka couldn't stop her leg's momentum, and hit Kurai on his chest. Kurai was sent flying and smashed into the entrance wall.
"KURAI!" Yukari screamed.
From the rubble, Kurai managed to crawl out weakly. He looked as if he was in the worst pain of his life. Moka's kick had enough force to kill him.
"What does.." He rasped, starting to cough up blood. "What does everyone have...against my ribs?" He chuckled weakly as he started to faint.
"Now then, where was I? Ginei smirked. He turned to Moka.
"Oh right. YOU!" He yelled as he took another lunge at her, only to have her grab his wrists.
"What the hell, how did you block...?" Gin asked surprised, then he realized something. "Wait don't tell me."
Gin looked up to see the moon covered in clouds. "Aaahhh! Without the full moon I can't use my full power!" Gin shouted.
Moka smirked at him. Ginei lost his cool guy personality, and switched to scared little kid.
"You're nothing more than an untamed mutt, who thinks he can win using an unfair advantage, but it doesnt matter." Gin didn't like the sound of that.
"It's time for you to KNOW...YOUR...PLACE!" Moka yelled as she delivered a roundhouse kick to his chest, sending him flying. Right before he hit the rail, he gained his footing, and pushed off the rail, doing a front flip in the air, and landing on top of the nearby statue.
"HA, it's going to take a lot more than kicks to defeat me Moka." Gin taunted and laughed.
Moka was at her limit with this guy.
All of a sudden Gin stopped, and pointed behind them. "What the hell?" He stuttered.
Everyone turned and saw Kurai stand up from the rubble. But there was something off about him. His eyes were wide open, and he had a creepy, demented smile as blood slowly gushed out of it.
He limped his way over to them, dark energy was surging all around his body.
Tsukune was about to help him out, when Kurumu stopped him.
Moka was starting to feel cold, very cold.
Kurai stopped limping and got on his hands and knees. His creepy smile never left. To top it off he began to laugh, it sounded like a wicked cackle.
Everyone was starting to get scared. Except for Moka, who was fascinated, yet slightly creeped at his display.
Dark energy intensified around Kurai until he was completely out of view. When the energy cleared. Standing where Kurai was, there was now a wolf.
He had white matted fur covered in fresh blood, he was twice the size of Ginei, and his eyes were blood red.
Kurai had turned his head to Ginei, and began to growl. His growling turned into a full fledge snarl as he ran to Ginei. Before he could run for it, Gin was suddenly trapped by the waist in Kurai's jaw. Kurai ran with Gin in his jaw and rammed him into a nearby wall.
"Kurai...is a werewolf?" Kurumu asked, starting to worry.
Moka had her arms crossed. "No, he's something much worse." She said as she watched Kurai repeatedly throw Gin to a wall with his jaw.
Gin finally escaped and tried to run away. As he ran, Kurai opened his jaw wide and blew fire in Gin's direction. It had charred some of Gin's fur off, and set his tail on fire.
Ginei blew out the fire on his tail, but he looked up to see Kurai, who grabbed him by the waist with his teeth again. Kurai ran at full speed and slammed Ginei in another wall.
"He's what you would call a hellhound." Moka said.
Gin had enough, but wolf Kurai wasn't through. He began mercilessly slashing at Gin, he didn't care where his claws ended up, as long as they hurted him.
"Please stop, have mercy." Ginei pleaded, but Kurai wouldn't have it. He continued slashing at him, pretty soon Gin was covered in blood himself.
Kurai stopped for a second when he realized someone was on his back. Tsukune had ran up and latched up on his neck for support.
"Kurai, stop it! He's had enough." Tsukune yelled. This only made Kurai angrier. As he threw his friend off his back.
Kurai had forgot about Gin, who was now back in his human form and turned his attention to his four friends. As soon as he glimpsed at them, he started growiling ferociously.
"Kurai, are you okay?" Kurumu whimpered.
"Remember us, were your friends." Yukari pleaded.
Kurai roared and ran to his friends with a feral look in his eye.
Kurumu had grabbed Yukari and Tsukune, and lifted them up in the air, just enough to avoid Kurai's fire.
Moka however, stood her ground as she was in a deathly staring contest with Kurai. She noticed that he was starting to look uneasy, and backed away a little bit
"Why would Kurai attack us like that, but be scared of Moka?" Yukari wondered as she watched the two.
Moka heard her with her vampire hearing and smirked. "It's simple. Kurai couldn't control himself, in this form he went feral, rabid, insane, and untamed." Moka explained as she walked towards him.
Hellhound Kurai was worried, he backed away. But she would only get closer.
Moka looked him straight in the eye. "Like Gin said, you should know who the pack leader is. It's time you learn your place." Moka said coldly. She was two inces from him, and raised her hand up.
Everyone thought she was going to hit him. But instead, she scratched him behind his ears.
Kurai's hound eyes widened, and his growling started turning into whimperings. Moka then proceeded to scratch him under his chin.
Kurai turned from a savage beast into a playful mutt.
"That's it, good boy, that's a good boy." Moka said quietly so that only she and hound Kurai could hear it.
Kurai wagged his tail like a playful puppy, and panted with his tongue out.
Moka stopped scratching him and he began to shrink. His white hair turned blonde again and disappeared. His form changed until he was normal Kurai, whose clothes were torn a bit and he still had all his scars in place. He lied down on his sides and went back to being unconscious.
"Moka, how did you do that?" Tsukune asked in awe.
"Especially without killing him?" Kurumu added in.
Moka grabbed the rosary from Tsukune. "I had a dog when I was little." Moka explained.
She smirked at the unconscious Kurai. "I guess you could say I like dogs. Except for perverted, lecherous mutts." She yelled, hoping Gin could hear her.
"Well we better get him to the nurse. His injuries look serious." Tsukune said as he and Kurumu picked him up.
"Wait, what about Gin?" Yukari asked.
"What about him?" Moka scoffed.
"You saw how Kurai almost mutilated him, we can't just leave him like that." Yukari exclaimed.
Moka gave in and sighed. "Fine, I'll grab him." She said as she picked him up from the rubble, and carried him on her shoulder.
"Thank you." He said weakly as he was about to stroke her hair.
"Do you want to get neutered?" She said coldly.
Gin caught her point, and stopped himself.
Kurai fluttered his eyes open. He was aware that there was four people in the room with him.
"Look he's awake." A female voice said
"Man, I'm so relieved." Another female voice said
"Okay, lets give him some air." A male voice said
Kurai focused his eyes, and saw Tsukune, Kurumu, Yukari, and Pink haired Moka. He looked around and realized he was in the infirmary.
He turned to his friends.
"How do you feel?" Moka asked.
"Like I got ran over, twice." He said grinning.
Everyone laughed, until he got their attention.
"What happened last night?" He asked.
Everyone went silent.
"Kurai?" Moka caught his attention, "That was two months ago." She said.
It took a second to comprehend what she just said, and it clicked; He was in a coma for two months.
Kurumu started to explain. "You took a severe beating from Ginei, add to the fact that the other Moka broke twenty of your ribs when she kicked you , and a few more bones when you slammed into the wall at 70 miles an hour. It took two days for the nurse to fully put them back together.
"I remember all of that." Kurai responded. "What I want to know is what happened after that, and how did I end up in coma?" He was starting to get angry for some reason.
Everyone looked at him with worry in their eyes. It was then Yukari spoke up.
"You went insane and turned into a giant, fire breathing hellhound." She explained.
Moka interrupted. "You almost killed Gin, and tried to kill us too. If it wasn't for the other me, we would've been dog food."
"You honestly don't remember any of that?" Tsukune asked.
Kurai nodded no, he was having difficulty processing what his friends were telling him.
"After that, we exposed Gin for the peeper he was, and cleared Tsukune's name." Kurumu said as she chest rubbed him.
They were all laughing and conversing. They told him about how humiliated Gin was, how they wouldn't stop checking up on him day after day, how they took care of his missed assignments, how Gin cleaned up his act, sort of. Kurumu even said she made a get well cake for Kurai, but she ended up eating most of it and saved a few pieces for him. She proved it to him by bring him a slice that she frosted to fit the words: Get well soon.
Twenty minutes went by, and Kurai was amazed to how much he meant to them. Although that might have been out of pity, he didn't mind though. But at one point he had enough.
"Guys, can I have some time alone?" He asked them.
They all nodded and left, leaving behind some fresh clothes for him to change into
Kurai thanked them, and after they were gone, he picked up his clothes, and left to go to his room. Hopefully to ease his throbbing head.
I'm proud of this chapter. I'm definitely giving Kurai a lot mystery to his character.
Like for example: What was in the box he got? And what happened ten years ago?
Don't worry, you'll find out soon, if there's one thing I can tell you about me is, I love suspense!
I should update with Mizore's chapter fairly soon, I'm gonna make it a mix between the Manga, and the anime, including the fight scene.
That's all I got for now, Signing out.
