I'm still so happy with all the reviews/favorites/follows! Thank you!
I don't own ROTG or BE/ANE
Onto the chapter!
"That wasn't a fair move." The demon whined, "But then again I should have expected so with Rin Okumura on this team."
"You know who I am?!" Rin exclaimed. The other exorcists could only understand Rin's half of the conversation so they just stood aside.
"Of course." The demon answered, "I mean what demon doesn't know you? You're the fucking son of Satan!"
"Don't associate me with that bastard!" Rin growled.
"Alright, alright no need to get hostile. So you mind telling me what you're chasing me for?"
"Er…the exorcists that have been chasing you for a while needed our help, but I can't really explain what they want from you."
"And I should trust you because?"
"Why not?"
"I have several reasons. One there's a giant wall of fire behind me and two you're chasing me down with exorcists, hell you're an exorcist and I should trust you? As a demon?"
Rin smirked, "What, are you afraid we'll just exorcise you? Send you back to Gehenna?"
The demon's eyes narrowed, "I'm not afraid! It's just suspicious! Besides I could easily fight you off!"
"I never said you couldn't!" Rin snapped back, "Just trust me."
"How and why should I just trust you?!" The demon growled.
Rin thought for a moment before saying, "How 'bout we make a deal?" This perked the demon's interest, but the others, however, were opposed to such an idea.
"Rin!" Yukio scolded, "Don't just suddenly make a deal with him! It's dangerous! Don't you understand that?!"
"I know what I'm doing Yukio!" Rin snapped back.
"I would listen to brother." North said siding with Yukio. "This demon is very mischievous and full of tricks."
"Don't trust him, mate." Aster said narrowing his eyes at the demons.
The icy demon put a hand to his chest as if hurt but the smirk upon his face said otherwise. "Ouch, I don't hear any amount of trust in those words." Then he turned to Rin and leaned on his staff. "So are you going to offer me a deal? It's your choice of course."
"Yes I'm still making a deal with you." Rin answered. "If you don't run away I'll take the wall down but you have to come with us."
"And in return?"
"I'll make sure you aren't killed, tricked, or imprisoned by any of them."
The demon scowled, "I don't need protection from you; I can handle myself."
"Are you accepting or not." Rin snapped in irritation.
"I'll go with you but it's just because if I run you'll just track me down again and it's not as fun with fire." The demon huffed. Rin nodded and took down the wall of flames while sheathing his sword. The other demon swung his staff over his shoulder while giving a smirk to the others, but in his eyes Rin could see the wariness of trusting them.
A few minutes later they all stood in the lounge of the abandon dormitory. The pale demon stood away from the other's watching them warily but not fleeing. He hasn't spoken and refused to let any of the exorcists approach him.
There was a tense, quiet air around them all that Tooth broke. "So," she said looking towards the demon, "What's your name?"
The demon just looked at her in silence.
At his lack of response she turned towards Rin. "Did he say anything?"
"Oi I'm not a demon translator!" Rin growled.
"I know it's just only you can understand him." She responded quickly. Rin grumbled a 'no' for an answer.
"Jack." A voice said and they all whipped their heads towards the pale demon. "My demon name is Jokul Frosti but I prefer Jack Frost."
"You speak English?!" Both Aster and Rin shouted in anger.
"I speak multiple languages." The demon, Jack, said with a shrug. "I just didn't answer in English because I didn't feel like you should hear what I said. That, and to irritate you. The only reason I'm speaking English now is because I don't want to be referred to as "demon" but rather my name."
"Why did you change your name?" Tooth asked.
"Because I can." Jack simply answered.
"Well, it is good thing you speak English then!" North exclaimed clapping his hands. "We can understand you!"
"Only if I feel like speaking clearly to you." Jack scoffed. Aster narrowed his eyes at the teen-demon but before he could retort, Yukio cleared his throat.
"Don't you four have something to explain to Mr. Frost here?" He said.
Jack's face gained a look of disgust, "Don't call me Mr. Frost. Jack is just fine."
"Yes, thank you for reminder!" North exclaimed. "Jack we would like you to team up with us so we can take down a powerful demon! What do you say?!"
Jack stared at them in shock.
It's short and I don't like it but meh.
