Yukio was glaring at me.

I shifted about under his hostile gaze and Mephisto patted my shoulder, grinning. "Yukio doesn't much like you, I know, but he is an excellent teacher. You would do well to listen to him."

"Like when he says jump off a cliff?" I hissed out of the corner of my mouth.

"Miss Kusami, I may not have good eyesight, but my hearing is excellent. Don't tempt me." Yukio met my eyes with absolute loathing.

"You told him. You actually told Mr Mole here that his newest student is a mist demon."

Mephisto flung his hands in the air. "It was fun outing you."

I snarled at him. "Is this a joke to you? I want to live, there are other demons after me, and you're treating it as a joke?"

"Oh, hush now. You and Yukio are both late for class." He made shooing motions and the tall boy pushed me forward, towards the door.

"Are you completely foolish? You need to learn the rules. Number One: don't be rude to Mr Faust."

Faust? Mephisto was still using that name?

"Number Two: Don't be rude to or annoy me."

I glared at him. "You really are an arrogant person. I don't care how tall you are, you can't tell me not to annoy you and class it as a school rule."

"Number Three: breathe one word of Rin's secret and you die."

"I'm already in the dying place." Like I would tell anyone of Rin's secret!

"Number Four: Don't make a move on Rin." I choked at that one.

"Say what? He's my freaking uncle!" I spluttered. "Ew! I MEAN, DUDE, COME ON."

Yukio looked like he was ready to throw up. "Then that means, Oh, my god, I cannot believe this.."

"What's your problem? I'm the one going to school with my uncle who's a year younger than me. You just…"

"Get into the classroom!" He shoved me into the classroom.

"This is Kasumi…"

"Koizumi. Kasumi Koizumi." I stuttered. Everyone was looking at me.

"She's your classmate." He glared at me.

"GO AND SIT DOWN, KOIZUMI!" What was his problem?

I jumped and ran for it, landing in the seat behind a pretty girl in a kimono.

"Oooh! Your dress is so pretty!"

I blinked and looked down at my dress. It was just a white dress. I smiled at her nervously. "Thanks. I like the kimono."

She giggled and gave me another one of those smiles. I coughed and turned my head, flushing from the attention.

"Now, please pay attention!" growled Yukio.

"Sheesh." I turned and saw Rin pouting. "He's in a bad mood."

"My fault. Sorry." I stuttered.

"He's a good teacher. What the hell did you say to him?" Rin asked casually.

"Well, I pointed out that you're my uncle for one. I may have called him Mr Mole for another. Sorry."

"You told my brother I was your uncle?" Rin's eyebrows went way up. "I'm your uncle?"

"Yes."

I made a throat cutting motion at him, praying to the effect of please don't mention I'm a demon, don't screw this up, you may be strong but you're not overly bright.

"Wait. Your what now?"

"I don't remember! How can you be my niece?" Rin was having a mental breakdown of some kind. Well, pardon my ass for telling him the truth.

Suddenly my brain caught up with my ears.

"YOUR BROTHER? YOUR BROTHER! MY UNCLE!"
