Sakura stepped towards the amusement park, looking at it in interest.
"I've never been to an amusement park before," she hummed, looking at the rides in unmasked joy. She was wearing a white button up shirt and a tan skirt with black biker shorts under it. She had on heeled boots that stopped under her knees. A brown belt was slanted across her hips, holding a scroll. A sword was strapped to her right hip. She had a red headband in her hair to hold back her bangs.
The pinkette jumped onto the high fence. She used it as a vault to jump onto the roof of a shop. She looked around the deserted area, spotting a group of male teens at a statue of Mephisto.
"I'm sorry for making you wait!" a girl shouted. Sakura looked back and saw Izumo and a blonde girl running towards them. Rin, Shima, and two other boys that Sakura did not recognize stared at the blonde girl, their cheeks pink.
"You've got to be kidding," Sakura huffed. "A pair of big breasts and they fall? Why are boys so perverted?"
"Shiemi! What happened to your kimono?" Rin shouted in shock.
"Ah, so that's it, they've never seen her this way before," Sakura muttered in understanding. "Still pathetic."
"I asked the director to issue me a uniform! Kimonos aren't exactly the best thing to wear on missions," Shiemi explained. "Miss Kamiki was teaching me how to wear it properly."
"Like that was my job?" Izumo said with a huff.
"It doesn't look weird does it?" Shiemi asked.
"You look really cute in that Moriyama," Shima chuckled.
"Ugh…he's drooling…" Sakura thought in disgust. Rin jumped off the statue and approached the short teacher, whispering something to him. The teacher, who appeared to be around his age, slapped him with a notebook.
"That hurt four-eyes!" Rin shouted angrily.
"Alright, now that you're here, let's get started," the young teacher announced. "You'll be teaming up in groups of two for today. Miwa and Takara, Yamada and Suguro," A tall boy with black hair with a blond stripe groaned in defeat.
"Crap…"
"Kamiki and Shima," Shima chuckled, his cheeks turning pink. Izumo huffed and rolled her eyes. "Okumura and Moriyama."
"We're together Rin," Shiemi smiled. Rin snapped out of his anger and sent a smile back.
"Oh sweet."
"Seriously?" Sakura groaned. "You're like Naruto."
"As you all know, this is Mepphy Land. We're here in response to a mischievous ghost," the young teacher said. "Today, you will be the ones finding it. We've sealed the park off from the public so you have the whole day to search for it. Once you find the ghost, call either Mr. Tsubaki, or myself."
"Now, what is the definition of a ghost?" Mr. Tsubaki asked. "Miss Kamiki?"
"Yes sir," Izumo nodded. "A ghost is a demon that posses the volatile emissions of either a human or an animal. It assumes and expresses the emotions its host had before it died."
"Correct," Mr. Tsubaki said.
"Exactly how many ghosts are we looking for?" Miwa asked.
"There have been sightings all around the park, but according to our intel it is just one. It takes the appearance of a young boy and so far the only mischief it's caused is arm pulling and skirt flipping," the young teacher said.
"Skirt flipping?" Rin muttered.
"How childish," Shima sighed. He blinked when realization hit him, "Oh wait, it is a child."
"So far the pranks have only been minor things. If left alone they will become more dangerous. It is of upmost importance that we find this ghost quickly," the young instructor told them.
"If we split up and search different ends of the park, we'll find this thing faster," Suguro suggested. The young teacher agreed.
"Does anyone have any questions?" he asked. He was met with silence. "Alright, then you may begin. Good luck."
Sakura yawned as she approached the two teachers.
"Who are you?" the younger one asked, hand going for his gun.
"Relax," Sakura sighed. She stopped in front of them and waved.
"Oh, are you the girl Mephisto warned was coming?" Mr. Tsubaki asked.
"Yep that's me, Sakura Haruno," the pinkette nodded.
"I didn't get a warning that anyone from the Vatican was coming," the young teacher muttered.
"That's because I'm not from the Vatican," Sakura told him.
"She is a special guest sent by Mephisto, don't know why though," Mr. Tsubaki hummed. "I am Mr. Tsubaki."
"I'm Yukio Okumura," The young teacher introduced. The pinkette paused, not expecting that name.
"Are you…related to Rin?" Sakura asked.
"Yes, he's my older twin brother," Yukio nodded. Sakura flinched, her eyebrow twitching.
"God damnit Mephisto, why didn't you tell me there was another one?" she growled under her breath. She sighed and shook her head, looking at Yukio. "I need to talk to you in private." Her tail came out, swishing back and forth. She didn't miss the way Yukio's eyes widened and then narrowed. "Don't worry, I'm not gonna hurt you, promise. What I have to tell you is really important."
Rin came to a stop as he heard a voice. It was soft and echoed in his ears. It sounded like someone was crying.
"Rin? What's wrong?" Shiemi asked.
"A voice," he whispered.
"What voice?" Shiemi asked.
"It's here," Rin muttered. He held out a hand to protect Shiemi. The carousel ride in front of them whirred to life. The horse mounts circled forward, moving up and down.
"Did that start all by itself?"Shiemi whispered, slightly scared. The ride came to a stop and they both gasped when they saw a young ghost boy sitting on one of the horses, crying. "Amazing! How'd you know it was here, Rin?"
"Uh, I just had a gut feeling," the half-demon said. Shiemi smiled and stepped forward.
"Excuse me," She called nervously. "Why are you crying?"
"Hey, don't get to close to it," Rin warned.
"But…it's just a little kid," Shiemi protested. "He can't be that dangerous, can he?"
"Hey kid! Cut the lame ass crying routine!" Rin shouted. The little ghost boy shouted in fright, not expecting the yell.
"Rin, you don't have to yell at him," Shiemi scolded. The ghost boy cried and flew towards her, shoving his face into her breasts.
"I was always sick," the ghost sniffed. "And my daddy and mommy promised to take me here when I got better! All I wanted was to come here and have some fun! But now that I'm dead…I can't play with anyone!"
"Oh, that must be so hard, I'm sorry," Shiemi whispered, stroking his hair. The ghost smirked and grabbed her breasts.
"Shut up you old hag!" The ghost laughed and flew away from them. "You dummy!"
"That rotten little piece of-" Rin growled. "Come back here damnit!" He chased after the ghost. Shiemi ran after him, trying to keep up. The chase ended at another statue of Mephisto. The ghost boy had gotten away.
"Little perverted brat, where did he go?" Rin growled, looking around.
"Rin, I'm going to go look over there, okay?" Shiemi said.
"Sure," Rin nodded. The blonde ran off to search for the ghost child. Rin sighed and took out his phone.
"That's right, we're supposed to call when we found it," Rin muttered. Suddenly he felt a tug on his sword and before he knew it, it was gone. He looked above him and saw a guy holding his sword.
"So do you understand the situation?" Sakura asked.
"I…never dreamed that something like this would happen," Yukio muttered.
"Yes, it is a lot, which is why I wanted to talk to both of you," Sakura nodded.
"I understand. But we are in the middle of a mission, I will talk to nii-san about it," Yukio stopped when Sakura turned around. The tip of her tail twitched. "What's wrong?" Sakura ignored his question and jumped onto the roof of a store. Music suddenly started playing and a few rides close to them sprang to life. Sakura growled and narrowed her eyes. Yukio's phone rang and he quickly picked it up.
"No, I didn't. Look around to see if there is anything strange happening near you," Yukio told Mr. Tsubaki. He looked back at the roof, only to find Sakura gone. "Where did she go?"
"Hey demon over here! Follow the sound of clapping!" A guy teased, shaking his behind around. His clothing was formal, but there were elements of crazy and weird to it. The pants had a strange pattern, and his overcoat was torn. His hair was green and stuck up in a point.
Rin growled, glaring at him. First this guy, Amaimon, as he oh so politely introduced, stole his sword. Then to top it off he unsheathed it, making Rin transform. And now the bastard was taunting him? What the hell? What did Rin ever do to him?
"Son of a…" Rin growled. "Don't tease me you bastard!" The half-demon leaped towards Amaimon. The demon jumped back, avoiding him. Rin growled and jumped over to the roller coaster track.
"Up here!" Amaimon called. Rin looked up and saw him at the top, crouched down.
"Come back here!" Rin shouted, climbing up the railing.
"You know, I had some free time the other day, so I spent it at the beach," Amaimon said.
"The hell are you going on about?" Rin growled under his breath. He continued to climb, getting closer and closer to Amaimon, and more importantly, his sword. Amaimon jumped onto the coaster cars and rode it down the hill.
"Look at me!" He cheered as he got closer and closer to Rin. "Surfing is a blast!"
"Come here you bastard," Rin growled. He jumped into the sky, dodging the coaster cars. Amaimon was in front of him in an instant.
"Here's another game I learned to play." Amaimon flicked him in the forward. There was force behind it, force that Rin didn't expect. He went crashing down the coaster, breaking the supports. Amaimon appeared over him once more. He grabbed Rin's arm and began punching him in the face as they fell. Rin grunted with every punch.
"I don't understand it. Why are father and my big brother so obsessed with this one?" Amaimon mused out loud. With one final punch he sent Rin to the ground. The half-demon landed hard, creating a crater on impact. Amaimon landed on Rin, digging his knees into his stomach. Amaimon straddled the half-demon and began punching him once more. Out of nowhere, the Earth King was punched, and sent flying back. He sat up and shook his head. A pinkette girl was standing above Rin.
"Who are you?" Amaimon asked. Sakura ignored him and looked down at Rin.
"Rin, are you okay?" the pinkette asked, holding out a hand. Rin growled and jumped up. He turned towards Amaimon, growling. He grabbed two support columns from the coaster and threw it at the Earth King. Amaimon laughed as he dodged it. Rin leapt after him and pinned the demon. "Rin!" Sakura shouted.
Rin gripped Amaimon's neck. He growled, his blue flames growing larger and brighter. The demon under him could have cared less. He wasn't in pain, he barely even felt anything from the tight hold Rin currently had on his neck
"Yes! That's the spirit!" Amaimon cheered. He punched the ground, splitting it. He kicked Rin off and flipped up right. Rin yelled out loudly, his flames intensifying.
"Rin! Snap out of it!" Sakura shouted, jumping between them.
"Why are you interrupting our fun?" Amaimon asked her.
"Because I don't see this as fun, give me the Koma sword," Sakura ordered, holding out her hand.
"Fine, then I'll get it back myself!" She ran towards him, and punched him in the face. Amaimon flew back, hitting the roller coaster. Amaimon groaned and sat up, rubbing his head. He looked at the pinkette and smiled.
"You're a fun toy! I'll gladly play with you too!" Amaimon shouted. He jumped down and landed neatly on the ground.
"This isn't a game, give back the damn sword!" Sakura shouted.
"Why should I? I think he's much more fun this way," Amaimon said. A high-pitched scream rang through the area. Rin gasped and turned around. Shiemi was lying on the ground, gripping the ghost boy. The ball pit had been pierced with supports from the roller coaster and was currently falling over.
"Shiemi," Rin gasped.
"Someone help me!" she screamed. Tree branches grew over her, protecting her. Rin ran towards her, trying to get to her in time. He thrust out his hand and sent a wave of blue flames towards her. It scorched the ball pit and sent it back, saving her. Rin fell to his hands and knees, panting.
"Rin! Are you alright?" Sakura asked, running over to him. Amaimon approached them and kicked Sakura in the face, sending her flying back. He stomped on Rin's back, pushing him into the ground.
"Is that it?" he asked. "Are you done with your show already? That was so boring for me" Rin groaned weakly as his flames died. "Oh well, I promised big brother I wouldn't, but since we're done, I guess I'll just break this now." He gripped the blade of the sword.
"No, stop," Rin pleaded weakly.
"Devour the eight princesses," a voice spoke out. The hooded student pulled down his sweatshirt and pulled a sword out of his chest. "Slay the serpent!" He shouted, leaping forward. Amaimon leaped back and the hooded figure landed behind Rin.
"Oh, and who might you be?" Amaimon asked. Yamada pulled Rin behind him. Sakura ran over to them and crouched next to Rin.
"You're Amaimon, King of Earth, aren't you?" Yamada questioned, standing up. Sakura grabbed Rin and helped him stand up as well. "I wonder how a big shot demon like you managed to get into the academy. Did Mephisto summon you?"
"I wish you'd get out of my way," Amaimon growled.
"I wish you'd get out of my way," Yamada replied. Amaimon hummed and tapped Rin's sword against his shoulder.
"I changed my mind," he said, grabbing the sheath. He covered the sword and tossed it at Rin. Sakura caught it and placed a hand on Rin's chest. "Perhaps another time! Farewell!"
"Hey! Get back here!" Yamada shouted. "The others will be here soon. Hide the tail, will ya?" with that he ran off, chasing Amaimon. Rin groaned and fell to his knees. Sakura grabbed him and gently lowered him down.
"Are you alright?" she asked. She kneeled in front of him.
"Who are you?" Rin groaned.
"I'm Sakura, I'm a friend," the pinkette smiled. "You need to hide your tail." Rin nodded and the tail hid.
"Rin!" Shiemi gasped, running over to him. She paused when she saw Sakura.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to hurt you guys," Sakura assured her.
"Rin, are you alright?" Shiemi asked, turning her attention to her classmate.
"I'm fine," Rin grunted, standing up. Sakura did the same. "What happened to the little brat?"
"He just disappeared. He called me big sis and said thanks," Shiemi smiled.
"Shiemi!" Yukio shouted, running over to them. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, but Rin's hurt. He's going to need treatment," Shiemi said.
"Leave it to me," Sakura winked. She reached out her hand and cupped Rin's chin. The half-demon flinched at the touch but soon relaxed when he felt a calming sensation enter his body. Sakura's hand glowed green and the cuts and bruises on Rin's face disappeared.
"How did you do that?" Yukio asked.
"I'm a healer," Sakura answered, dropping her hand. "Healing people is what I do."
"What took you so long?" Yamada called, approaching them. "Seriously, you were taking forever Yukio. I had to make a move. It's been a while, wouldn't you agree?"
"Can't be," Yukio muttered.
"Yukio, what's going on?" Rin asked.
"I can't take another moment in this damn hoodie," Yamada groaned. He pulled off his sweatshirt and dropped it on the ground. Yamada's long dark pink hair with blonde tips was in a ponytail. His, or rather, her chest was tightly bound. Yamada unwound the bindings and freed her breasts. She had on a bikini top. There was a tattoo on her front.
"Sorry kid, I'm not your classmate," 'Yamada' apologized. "I'm an inspector with the Knights of the True Cross. Vatican HQ sent me here to investigate a dangerous element in the Japan Branch. I'm Senior Exorcist First Class, Shura Kirigakure." Rin, Yukio, and Shiemi were staring at Shura in shock. Sakura sighed and shook her head.
"I'm Sakura Haruno, shinobi from Konohagakure," the pinkette introduced, holding out her hand.
"A shinobi, never met one of you guys before," Shura smirked, shaking her hand. "What's a girl like you doing away from your village?"
"My Hokage has allowed me to leave on a special personal mission," Sakura answered. "I'm here to find my little brother, or rather, brothers as I found out earlier. I'm Yukio and Rin's older sister."
"We have an older sister? Since when?" Rin shouted.
"Half-sister," Yukio corrected. "And it came as a shock to me as well. I found out about it an hour ago." Rin looked at Sakura in shock.
