This is the first Omake of the Pink Exorcist story. These will be sprinkled in every once in a while. So enjoy the first one.
Sakura hummed as she rubbed a towel over her wet hair. Her tail shook back and forth quickly, trying to dry off. Sakura giggled and grabbed another towel, rubbing it against her fur. She grabbed a white shirt and pink sleep shorts and smiled, exiting the girl's bathroom. She walked down to the kitchen and grabbed a bottle of milk out of the fridge.
"Evening Ukobach!" The small demon squeaked a greeting in return. "What's for breakfast tomorrow?" Ukobach squeaked at her and Sakura gasped in happiness. "Really? Omelets? Score!" She rubbed Ukobach's head and bid him goodnight.
Sakura knocked on her brothers' door.
"Come in!" Yukio shouted. Sakura entered the room and noticed that Rin was gone.
"Where's Rin?"
"He's gone to take a bath," Yukio answered. "Is there something I can help you with?"
"Yeah, can you brush my tail? Please?" Sakura pouted cutely and batted her eyes.
"Brush your tail?" Yukio repeated in confusion.
"Yeah, you see my tail is really hard to brush when it's wet, and if I go to bed with it unbrushed it's going to be a whole lot harder to do it in the morning." Sakura explained.
"Why can't you do it?" Yukio asked.
"I pulled a muscle in my arm during training today. Normally I would heal it up, but…" Sakura trailed off, looking at the ground sadly.
"I understand." Yukio smiled and closed his notebook. "I'd love to brush your tail."
"Really! Thank you!" Sakura giggled and jumped on him, giving him a hug. She sat down and handed Yukio the brush. Yukio smiled as he ran the brush down her fur. The room was comfortably quiet for a few minutes.
"Yukio, we're almost out of shampoo," Rin said as he entered their room. "Hey sis."
"Hi!" Sakura waved at him.
"Alright I'll add it to the list and buy some tomorrow when I go shopping," Yukio said. Rin sat down on his bed and looked at them in curiosity.
"What exactly are you two doing?" Rin asked.
"Yukio's brushing my tail since I can't." Sakura told him.
"What! Yukio! How come you never brush my tail?" Rin asked his brother.
"Because you never asked?" Yukio shrugged, not really caring.
"Can you brush my tail?" Rin asked, excited at the prospect of having his brother brush his tail.
"No." Yukio smirked. Sakura snorted and covered her mouth trying not to laugh.
"You suck." Rin leaned back on his bed and took out a manga flipping through it.
"Give me back my manga and I'll brush your tail," Yukio said. Rin glanced at him and looked at the book in his hand before shrugging.
"No thanks I'm good." Yukio huffed and rolled his eyes at his brother's response.
"It's so much fun seeing you two interact," Sakura said. "You get on each other's nerves but you'd really do anything for each other. It's a nice thing to see."
"Did none of your other friends have siblings?" Rin asked.
"Well, my old teammate Sasuke had an older brother, but Itachi kinda defected and became a criminal. Now Sasuke just wants to kill him," Sakura said nervously. Yukio and Rin blanked, staring at her in shock. "Itachi killed their entire clan when Sasuke was young. Oh! Hinata has a younger sister. Uh but, their father prefers Hanabi over Hinata and thinks Hanabi's stronger."
"Any good sibling relationships?" Rin asked.
"Uh, I think Kiba gets along with his older sister Hana, but I haven't seen them together that much," Sakura said. "Oh! There are the sand siblings! Temari, the oldest, Kankurō the middle child, and Gaara the youngest. I think you'd like Gaara, Rin."
"What makes you say that?" Rin asked.
"Because he's like you. He was born with a powerful and cruel demon inside of him. His siblings even feared and hated him before," Sakura said. "But now, they're really close, just like you and Yukio."
"Can I meet him sometime?" Rin asked.
"We'll have to see, he's very busy. He's the Kazekage, leader of the Land of the Wind and the Hidden Sand village," Sakura told them. "It's really impressive, the village's most feared shinobi became their beloved leader. He's even the same age as us."
"I think he'd be a good influence on Rin." Yukio laughed.
"If you want a good influence than I've got to introduce you to Naruto." Sakura laughed. "He's the one that helped Gaara. Gaara was cold and killed anyone he wanted before he met Naruto. He even tried to kill me once."
"Have I ever told you that your home is fucked up?" Rin asked.
"At least once every single time I bring it up. But I'm serious, you'd get along with Naruto. You two are a lot alike." Sakura smiled softly and Rin couldn't help but return the smile.
"Alright, then you'll have to make it happen sometime." Rin told her. The children of Satan fell into silence once more as they continued their previous activities.
"I never noticed but you have a kink in your tail." Yukio ran his thumb over the kink in Sakura's tail, looking it over.
"Can demons have kinks in their tail?" Rin asked.
"I don't know, I've never heard of it before," Yukio said.
"It's good luck," Sakura told them.
"Good luck? How?" Yukio asked.
"Well, aren't cats with kinked tails considered good luck here in Japan?" Sakura asked.
"In some parts I guess it could be considered good luck." Yukio confirmed.
"Then it's good luck!" Sakura declared.
"Whatever." Rin snorted, turning the page of his manga.
"There's also another thing about your tail that bothers me," Yukio said, placing the brush down.
"What?" Sakura's tail swung up and tickled her cheek.
"The color. While we don't understand much about demon tails, exorcists have noticed that the tail of a demon matches their natural hair color. You showed us a baby picture and you had pink hair even as an infant, proving that it's your natural color. So why isn't your tail pink as well?" Yukio explained.
"I always thought the color was hereditary, I mean, it's the exact same color as Rin's," Sakura said.
"Really?" Rin asked. Sakura nodded and waved him over. Rin stood up and stood next to her. Sakura's tail wrapped around Rin's. With them curled together you couldn't tell where one's tail was, it was just a mass of black fur.
"Wow, they really are exact." Rin looked at their tails in shocked.
"This is very interesting. I've never seen two demons with tails the exact same color before." Yukio grabbed his notebook and jotted down a few notes. "I'll have to see if we can learn anything else from this. You two have the same powers and your tails are the same color. This may help the Vatican find out more about demons."
"Or maybe the color is just a sign of bad luck," Rin said with a smirk.
"You shut up! It is not!" Sakura's tail tightened its hold on Rin's.
"Ow! How is your tail so strong? That really hurts!"
"Then don't make fun of my tail!" Sakura shouted. Yukio watched the two bickering half-demons and smiled.
"Sakura guess what!" Rin said, entering the classroom. Sakura looked up from her conversation with Shiemi and turned to her brother. He was immensely happy and his tail was swishing back and forth excitedly.
"Someone looks happy." Shima teased.
"What happened Rin?" Shiemi asked.
"Yukio actually caved and brushed my tail last night!" Rin said.
"Really?" Sakura asked.
"The teacher brushed your tail?" Suguro asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, it was really relaxing," Rin said with a huge smile. "He was really good."
"Nothing's more relaxing than having someone brush your tail." Sakura laughed in agreement. "And Yukio's technique can't be beat! My tail is normally such a pain to brush after I've washed it. But I couldn't even feel him pull at the knots that I normally find. He got them all and I didn't even feel a thing.
"Next time you should try to get him to do it right after you've gotten out of the bath, that's the best time. You're already relaxed from a nice hot bath and then having your tail brushed just adds to the relaxation. I had a great night's sleep." Sakura told him.
"Really? I've got to try that sometime."
"You're failing class and instead of asking your brother for help, you get him to brush your tail." Suguro groaned and rubbed his head.
"If you had a tail you'd understand," Rin said.
"I don't ever want to understand you," Suguro said.
