Hey guys! I've decided to make a change to when this story will be set. After rereading the Mobichi (Tissue) Arc, I've decided to have it set after the arc. Furthermore, this story will be a Furuichi x OC story. Enjoy Chapter 2!

Chapter 2- The Special Class
It's been a few days since my move to Ishiyama, and now, I'm going to be starting school at St. Ishiyama Academy. I put on the girls' uniform, which consists of a pale green skirt, a white short-sleeved blouse, a red checkered bow, and a blue blazer. Just for safety, I put my discus into my school bag, since there's a chance that I might encounter some demons.
"I'm heading out!" I call over my shoulder.
"Have a nice day!" Mom calls back. "Good luck on your first day!"
Upon arriving at the school, I make my way to the special classroom. I'm told that the special class consists of some of the well-known delinquents of the sister school Ishiyama High School. After some asking around, I eventually find out who the delinquents are. The Tohoshinki, MK5, Good Night Shimokawa, Killer Machine Abe, the Sanada brothers, the Red Tails, and the Rampaging Ogre/Baby-on-Back Brawler.
I find an empty desk by the window and I sit down. However, I feel a strange energy emanating in the classroom, once again. Someone in this class isn't human. But who? I start to look around the classroom, trying to look for the source of the energy when I hear the sound of two hands hitting a desk. "All right brats! Listen up!"
I turn and see Saotome-san, or sensei, standing in front of the class, a cigarette between his lips. "We have a new student in this class who has transferred from somewhere in India. Please welcome the 2nd-year student Mizushima Ayaka."
I stand up and give a slight bow before sitting back down. However, I feel a few pairs of eyes on me, one of them coming from the force of energy. I try and ignore it for the rest of the class period until the bell rings, signaling that it's lunch time.
As I pick up my bento box, I suddenly feel a small tug on my ankle. To my surprise, I see a baby at my ankle. The baby is completely nude, and has green hair and a little yellow pacifier in his mouth. It's the same baby who was attached onto the back of one of the delinquents. I can't help but smile at him. "Hey kiddo," I coo. "Is something wrong?"
"Da bu…" he whines.
"You want to be picked up?" I ask. "Okay!"
I pick up the baby and walk through the hallways, looking for a place to eat lunch when the baby starts pointing in a certain direction. "You want me to go this way?" I ask. He nods.
"Da!"
I follow his directions and soon, I find myself on the school roof. Right then, a delinquent with messy brown hair comes up to me. "Oi, Berubo!" he says, taking the baby out of my arms. "Don't wander off on me like that!"
I stare at him in surprise. "This kid's yours?" I ask.
"It's kind of a long story," a silver-haired boy tells me. "Wait, you're the new girl, aren't you? I'm Furuichi, and this is my friend Oga. Come and sit with us!" he offers.
Sitting with them is a blonde-haired girl and a black-haired girl. "So, the new girl's sitting with us?" the black-haired girl asks.
"You can just call me Ayaka," I say. "What about you?"
"Kunieda," the girl tells me. "My name's Kunieda Aoi. This is Hilda."
The blonde girl, now known as Hilda, looks at me. "Ayaka, hm?" she asks. "Just what were you doing with the Master?"
"Master?" I ask, confused. Right then, I feel it. The force of energy is now in tenfold.
"She means Berubo," Oga says.
"Hey, is something wrong?" Furuichi asks. I turn to him.
"Do any of you feel this?" I ask. "I feel a force of energy, and I can sense that it's coming from one of you."
Furuichi stares at me in surprise. "What are you talking about? How can you sense this?"
"She's like us," Kunieda says. "She's able to sense demonic energy."
Demon?! Right then, I turn to Hilda. "You're a demon, aren't you?" I ask. "I knew it. There was something that seemed off about you."
"I'm a Demon Maidservant, and I serve the baby that Oga has on his back. His name is Kaiser de Emperana Beelzebub IV, and he has been sent from Makai to destroy humanity, and Oga's his contractor," she tells me.
I stare in shock. So that's how it all started! This baby was sent to destroy humanity, so that's what must've triggered all these strange occurrences! "I knew it…" I murmur.
"Knew what?"
I hide my shock with a bright smile. "Oh, it's nothing!" I say. "Why don't we talk about something else?"
"Yeah!" Furuichi agrees. "So, you're from India? Which part?"
"A place called Madurai in Tamil Nadu," I reply. "It's got a lot of temples there, and my grandfather's a priest at one of them. I moved here with my mom."
I try to hide my growing uneasiness by having this conversation with them, but at the same time, I can't help but be worried. Just how many people in this school know about the presence of demons and Asuras? I need answers.
After class today, I approach Saotome-sensei. "Excuse me, Saotome-sensei?" I ask. He looks up, giving me a small smirk.
"Well, well, Ayaka," he greets. "Long time no see. What's up?"
I look around to see if anyone's listening. No one else is around. "How many people here know about demons and Asuras?" I ask.
He blows a puff of smoke from his mouth, looking thoughtful. "There are a small handful of people who know only about demons. However, I can't say whether they know about Asuras," he replies. "I heard about what happened in Madurai."
I nod. "It's making me a bit uneasy. The demonic energy in this city is kind of spread out, and I'm a bit confused. How many demons are here?"
"Only a few," he tells me. "I know you're worried about the presence of Asuras, but I can assure you, there aren't many right now. One thing you need to know, is that the Asura Tribe is very intelligent. They already have this planned out, and they have no intentions of letting their plan fail. Some of them can be very dangerous and vicious, so take care. Have a safe journey home."
"Thank you," I thank. As I walk out, he calls me again.
"And by the way, Ayaka," Saotome-sensei says. "Be careful not to show your spiritual energy too much. You and Kunieda have similar powers, except she uses the Shingetsu Sword School technique taught by her grandfather. You use the Sudarshana Chakra technique, also taught by your grandfather. It's best to only use it when the situation is dire."
I nod. "Yes. Have a good night, sensei," I thank, walking out.
During the walk home, I let my mind wander to other thoughts as I hum a song to myself, shivering slightly as the autumn wind blows. With the days growing shorter, nights are slowly getting colder. I unconsciously hold onto my blazer and walk faster, hoping to hurry home. I finally reach the residential area, and the glow of the lights give me a sense of comfort as I reach my home.
"I'm home!" I call as I enter the house, the warm air quickly warming me up.
"Welcome home!" Mom calls back. "Dinner's just about ready!"
I enter the main room, glad to be out of the chilly and ominous night air as I turn on the TV, changing it to a channel that plays anime. As Mom and I eat dinner, I try and forget about the uneasy feelings as I tell her about my day.
