"Looks like I underestimated you…" Rin smirked watching as Yami made to the top of the mountain. Yuugi smiled in relief that Yami was alright and safe, "You manage to make it to the top of the mountain however, this is the most you can do." Yami frowned at Rin's words, "Come here Yuugi!" The black haired boy ordered reaching for Yuugi who back away instantly from him. Rin's eyes widen when something fast went through his way and he dodge it.

"Yami!" Yuugi cried out happily in Yami's arms. Yami had rescued the boy from Rin and place his small one beside him safely. Rin hissed at them.

"Are you hurt?" Yami asked worriedly.

Yuugi shook his head smiling, "Nope, I'm fine!"

"That boy is useless anyway…." Rin said and his eyes darken, "However, he have already satisfies my cravings. The legendary White Phoenix's blood has been proven worthy. I only licked a little; already it has given me such great power."

"Yuugi quick hide behind me!" Yami ordered pushing the boy behind him.

"Rin's actually not a bad person!" Yuugi cried out.

Yami's eyes widen, "WHAT? Have you forgotten what he did to An?" Yuugi froze and thought about his dead friend. An lying there in a pool of blood not breathing, "You don't even realise that he can do those things…."

"I am going to make you two suffer a painful death…" Rin declared and he releases his claws from his fingernails.

"WAIT!" An angry voice yelled out, "Your opponent is me!" Shuri exclaimed. Yuugi was shocked to see that she was here along with the others. "I have the support of the eastern school! THIS IS OUR SCHOOL FIGHT!"

Kotomi placed a hand on Shuri's shoulder, "Shuri, wait here! I will give you the final strike but he is also my enemy." Kotomi and her fellow mates stood into an attacking position, "Daring to cheat the four gods….you must understand the consequences Rin!"

"Dealing with you cumbersome idiot is as easy as blowing off dust. I merely have the White Pheonix's strength." Rin laughed and Kotomo, Daichi and Jin could not move their body as a strong pressure pull them down.

"Wha….what…the…pressure…can't move." Daichi groaned.

Rin smiled, "Very good, this will finish you off for good!"

"RIN, STOP!" Rin turned around to see Yuugi standing behind him looking worry. Yami's eyes widen, he didn't realise Yuugi had escape from him, "This stupid blockhead! What is he doing?" He thought with annoyance. "Don't continue to do bad things! Don't use these mean to prove yourself!" Yuugi cried out.

"You…SHUT UP!" Rin blasted a beam of energy toward the boy but was blocked by a phoenix.

Shuri dropped onto her knees, "It's my strength's transformed body…don't take it to heart but that guy doesn't have a heart like yours…." And her knees gave her away.

"SHURI!"

"That girl….used the last of her strength…" Daichi mumbled to Jun and Kotomi stared shockingly at her fallen friend.

Rin laughed evilly, "With that rubbish dealt with I can continue to tidy up." His long claws and wings were out again and his eyes gleam happily, "This is the end!" Yami got his wings out and sprinted to Rin who smirked and they both took the fighting up in the sky. Yuugi watched with worry and shouted out to Yami to be careful.

"Hey white phoenix!" Daichi called out to the boy, "You are the white phoenix? Then quickly change this kind of pressure!"

Yuugi blinked his eyes, he could do that? But how? He can't even get his wings properly out. "Don't count on the boy." Jun said.

"But…."

"Shuri! Can you hear me?" Kotomi shouted out to her friend, "I will transfer my strength to you." A light beam went through Shuri and all her injuries were cure and she was able to get up, "With this kind of thing, out of all of us, your body alone is free of Rin's constricting pressure. Use my demon strength and defeat him." She turned toward the gasping boys, "Give Shuri your strength as well!" Kotomi ordered.

"Are you kidding?" Daichin gasped, "The 4 gods strength like that could easily…."

"It will finish him off once and for all!" Kotomi explained with anger, "Don't say such foolish things again!"

The two boys also sent their strength to Shuri quickly, "You all…." Shuri whispered her eyes widening and Kotomi grinned back at her.

Meanwhile the fight between Yami and Rin were looking bad. Yami looking all worn out stared at the beast in front of him, "Is that all you got?" Yami's eyes harden, "And to think I had a high expectation on you", Suddenly Rin got Yami locked within his long arms squeezing the boy, "You shall now die!" Yami bit his lip to stop from screaming out of pain.

Another figure was flying fast toward them, "Your opponent should be me!" Shuri declared as she was covered with bright orange and reddish flame. She glared at Rin and threw a powerful beam from all the gods' power combines at him. Rin's eyes widen letting go off Yami.

"It worked?" Kotomi asked hopefully and everyone watched with anticipation. Yuugi clenched his fist.

"No….I…can't-" Rin's fingers twitched, "I CAN'T LOSE AGAINST YOU AND YOUR WORTHLESS ATTACK!" He shouted and tried to stop the beam, "AHHHHHHHHH….how is this even possible?" Rin was defeated and his wings disappeared leaving him to slowly falling down to the ground, "….wings? why don't I have wings….?" He whispered.

"Why don't you have new wings? Your ability to use the white phoenix's strength as temporary, a person who uses that kind of strength can't be superior." Shuri explained watching as Rin slowly falling down, "We also have been negligent and have forgotten this but we are the responsible for the confusion and unrest of a great number of people. Our combined strength will defend this world." Rin's eyes widen, "This is the four gods true identity. The original gods hold an advent age that makes me unnecessary…I resemble a type of insignificant existence; this shall show the promise of being forsaken."

A bright white light suddenly erupted and everyone else turned to look at it with surprises, "It's not like that!" A familiar voice spoke up and Yuugi jumped forn from the mountain, "Quick! Grab a hold of me!" He shouted toward the fallen Rin.

"W…..why towards me…..?"

"I don't know…..but….." Yuugi's face was filled with concern making Rin feel so different than he ever felt before.

"I've never been….bathed in such warm light before…." Rin closed his eyes and tears fell down his face, he slowly reached out his hands toward Yuugi.

"YUUGI!" Yami was flying toward his little one, "Really? How reckless can he get?" Yami sighed in his thought and he landed where Yuugi were with Rin crying in his arms, "Yuugi….what do you want to do with him?" Yami asked and Yuugi's sad and warming eyes stared at the boy in his arms.

The others had also quickly landed beside Yami, "Let go of him White Phoenix! Hand him to me!" Kotomi ordered strictly.

"NO!" Yuugi's clenched tighter onto the boy, "Please…..forgive Rin." He pleaded in a soft voice.

"W….what? What nonsense!" Daichi exclaimed.

"He was the one that wanted to kill us!" Jun pointed out.

Yuugi's face harden, "Although that's true, we're not the same as him!"

"This discussion is worthless!" Kotomi announced and she summoned her power ready for an attack.

"Stop!" Another voice ordered and Kotomi stopped in her tracks, "Let it go….Kotomi."

"Have you forgotten that he's the one who murdered An? Don't you want revenge?" Kotomi questioned confusingly.

Shuri smiled, "Let's stop here. An wouldn't want anyone's blood to be shed." She turned to Yuugi, "Right Yuugi?"

Yuugi grinned nodding his head back, "Yes"

"Your white wings tell me, what I should do is not fight. My responsibility lies in protecting more lives." Shuri said and Yuugi was happy with his friend's words. All a sudden, a brilliant shining light burst through the sky making everyone shield their eyes from it.

"Ah! What is this light!" Jun shouted, "It's hurting my eyes!"

Yuugi tried to peek through the light, "Huh? What is this? What is happening?" He wildly thought and then he saw up in the sky was an animal with four legs that looked kind of like a horse or unicorn with a long horn with golden fur and tail, "The kirin?"

"But why is it appearing now?" Kotomi asked.

"How magnificent…." Rin whispered starring at the beautiful creature.

The kirin landed beside Shuri, "Welcome, this generation's king, Shuri." The kirin announced and her eyes widen, "Although you're very young, your heart is filled with hope."

"Ah! Congratulation!" Roushi-sama appeared, "Now the Chinese Society will be peaceful again."

"ROUSHI-SAMA?" Everyone announced.

"Oh yes! Didn't they say that the one who catches the Kirin can be the student council president?" Daichi asked quickly jumping onto the kirin and hugging it.

Roushi-sama watched as the kirin shook Daichi off him, "The so called 'catch' is only a way of saying it. If the right leader doesn't appear, the kirin will not show itself. Catching the kirin means to change oneself." He looked at the group, "But, it's hard if you're alone….I think that the ones who stand here, not even one can be absent, if not the leader wouldn't have born." Roushi-sama explained, "What's sad is that there has been a sacrifice."

Both Shuri and Yuugi looked sad remembering their dead beloved friend. Rin dropped onto his knees, "Miss Shuri….please take my life with your hands."

"Rin….!" Yuugi shook the boy gently, "Why do you want to do this? Shuri had already promised to forgive you!"

Rin caressed Yuugi's face, "Thank you for your light." He smiled warmly, "I'm very happy. My life won't suffice for my grave mistake, but…."

"That's right! No matter what I do, An will still be dead!" Shuri hissed.

"Let it go!" Yami shouted out in annoyance, "Even though you promised to let him off, it won't be able to save him." His face softens, "You're the student council president now you know."

"But…."

"Leave it to me" The kirin spoke up and he begins to shine in the brilliant light again, "You will be reborn and live how your will wishes of you." The kirin told Rin, "But, if you bear evil intentions once again at that time, I will never forgive you." And the place where once Rin stood was now a little baby in replace.

Yuugi picked up the baby, "Rin, this is great….this is great…." Yuugi laughed hugging the baby with happy tears forming in his eyes. The poor boy had suffered so much in his past, this was a great start for him.

"That child….can you let me take care of him…" Shuri asked and Kotomi was shocked with her odd request, "Please?"

Yuugi smiled and nodded his head, "Yes." He handed the baby to Shuri.

"Roushi-sama, from now onwards, the Chinese Society won't judge others by status anymore. Let's open the door to every child…" Shuri announced to him.

Roushi-sama nodded his head, "I will leave everything to you. I'm only watching you from the sidelines."

"Hey Shuri, no matter what you say, this is too weird!" Kotomi frowned, "Although he is a baby, he was still the one who killed An! How could you?"

The baby in Shuri's arms suddenly opened it eyes and it smiled and patted Shuri on the cheek making her laughed, "Is it? I…..I guess I'm really weird then."

"No, it's not what you think my princess."

Shuri's eyes widen and tears were forming, "How can it be? Im…impossible….." Instead of the kirin in front of her it was…

"Ah…eh?" An sheepishly rubbed his head, I'm sorry, I'm still not used to this transformation."

"How can this be?" Yuugi's jaw dropped starring at his friend who now has golden long hair and a long horn on his forehead, "WHY? WHEN WHAT HAPPENED?" Yuugi burst with astonishment.

Sweats dropped down An's face from Yuugi's shocked face. "Um….even if you ask me like this….I…I still…."

"Kirin-sama! Please forgive us for treating you so badly in the past!" Kotomi apologised as she and her group bowed down on their knees and Daichi dragged Yami down too who muttered under his breath why he had to do it too.

"Everyone please don't be like this, please rise…." An insisted feeling embarrassed with the sudden formality.

Shuri laid her head on An's back, "That's great….you're still alive…." She cried.

"Miss Shuri…." An bowed down on his knees, "That child called Rin…is the result of the fighting between the four gods. The four gods who should have treated each other with respect and importance were separated because of incessant disputes. But the ones who really suffer are those who are the weakest."

"Just like Rin." Yuugi whispered.

"Yes." An nodded his head and his face looked wearily, "That's why Rin lived his life as a weak sufferer in the deepest depth of the world. Of course Rin didn't have his own will. If he died, it was because he couldn't survive. Even if he had the luck to live, if he hadn't found a person to rely on, Rin could never have found his own personality." An closed his eyes, "Luckily, I was able to meet Miss Shuri. And Miss Shuri awoke me at the most important moment. I was able to wake Rin and only then was I capable of letting you see me again. My past body is gone and this is my new transformed body."

"Ah….so it was like this…" Yuugi said.

"Everything that has happened today was too moving but I shall never forget this day." Shuri said and smiled down at the baby.

"Shuri is so amazing." Yuugi looked at the girl with high expectation, "Although she's about the same age as me…she's like in a totally different world than me…"

"Yuugi isn't bad either." Yuugi blinked his eyes and looked at Yami with the 'huh' face, "In that kind of situation no one thought about saving Rin. I have a new perspective of you now." Yami replied.

Yuugi's face lit up and he was really happy that Yami actually praised him, "It's not really that….." He chuckled rubbing his head sheepishly and then his attention was locked onto Shuri who handed the baby to An who said he will take care of the baby too. "He really looks like the child of the two of you." He announced with a grinning face.

An's face turned really red, "Me? And the princess' child?"

"Yu….YUUGI!" Shuri embarrassedly cried out. Yuugi and Fluffy grinned cheekily at each other before sprinted off from the furious and shy Shuri.

"To me, it's impossible to save someone who killed one of my close friends." Kotomi said with Jun and Daichi nodded in agreement.

Yami rolled his eyes, "That's why you weren't selected by the Kirin. What else do you think?"

Kotomi glared at him, "You are the same!"

"Me?"

"If that small phoenix was murdered by someone, will Yami let that person go?" She questioned before she went silent as she sense a weird, creepy aura from Yami.

"We should go home now Yuugi." Yami called out to his little one ignoring Kotomi's earlier comment.

Kotomi looked uneasy, "What was that? That murderous intent….?"

"If that guy had realised his true ability, he should have been able to beat Rin." Roushi-sama said to Kotomi, "Maybe he himself hasn't realised it yet." He chuckled, "The principle sent two really interesting people here…."

"We have to go now~~~?" Yuugi whined.

"Why don't you stay for a few more days?" Shuri suggested.

"Don't tell me you forgot the purpose we came here for…." Yami sighed at the clueless look Yuugi was giving him, "You should revise your studies."

Ah! Yuugi finally remembered that he have supplementary classes during the summer holidays since he failed the exams. Yami handed him a piece of paper. There were three things he needed to do and Yami had tick them all.

1. Familiarise with the white crow's capabilities.

2. Solve the problem of choosing the Chinese Society's Student Council President.

3. Find the Kirin (After completing all of this, come back immediately).

"Eh? When….." Yuugi mumbled starring at the sheet blankly. How come he didn't know there were missions he had to do? He blinked his eyes at the first task, "The white crow's capabilities are….?" He asked Yami.

"Can't you open your wings and fly now? That's counted."

Yuugi pouted and he stared at An observing his appearance. "What a great horn. He can even transform at will. Can use great techniques. His intelligence is shown in his conversations with others. He really exudes an aura of a deity." Yuugi thought with envy. "Although I'm also a legend like him, it feels like I'm losing out." Yuugi sighed and Fluffy and him sat in a corner with misery.

"No….no, it's not like that! Mister Yuugi will definitely become an outstanding white crow in the future!" An pointed out.

Yuugi sighed again, "I don't need comforting words."

An's face soften, "I said the truth because I can see it. But…that also means that you have to carry a responsibility." Yuugi stared at his friend, "Mister Yuugi must finish the White Crow's task, no matter how hard it may be…."

Yuugi's eyes twinkled, "That also means I…I will become the world's hottest, most popular monster with a model's figure!" An's sweats dropped.

"It should be more like this…." Yami thought of a big fat ugly crow and Yuugi wacked him on the arm.

Meanwhile back at the SM Academy….

The group was at the cafeteria completely bored out of their mind, "The winner is Seto!"Noah announced and Joey huddled in a corner with disappointment. They were having an ice-shaved eating contest.

"Let's compete again!" Joey said.

Mai walked into the cafeteria, "Eh? All of you still haven't gone home yet?"

"Because we are waiting for Yuugi to return…." Tristan and Joey sighed while Vivian was daydreaming about Yami.

Back to the Chinese Academy…..

"Bye Roushi-same!" Yuugi waved as he and Yami was getting ready to jump back in the scary looking ox holding the bowl, "Thank-you for your care!" The whirlpool begins to form.

"Please ask how the principal is doing for me."

"Yuugi!" He turned around to see smiling Shuri, "The next time you come, I guarantee that this place will turn into a wonderful academy!"

"Yeah." And he and Yami jumped into the bowl.

"That's right, but listening to the principal…eh?" Mai stopped talking when she heard two familiar voices bickering outside the school yard. All the others also stopped what they were doing and looked outside the window to see their two friends are finally back. Drats in his office smiled before continue back with his work.

"When you hugged Kotomi, you looked all flirty!" Yuugi glared at Yami angrily running away from him.

"It wasn't like that!" Yami defended himself.

"YOU SICK CROW!"

Yeah I know a very late update from me ^^"
