SailorStar9: After getting the prologue out, this is Chapter 1 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot and pairing.

Chapter 1: Temptation

"I found you." Amaimon grinned, bursting into the courtroom, in his demon form. With a slam of his hand, he smashed the courtroom's barrier, causing the crystal holding Rin to fall to the ground.

"The time for voting is almost over." Mephisto declared, the crystal shattering. "Please decide whether you are for or against."

"You..." Arthur glared. "Heeded the summon because you knew this would happen? You knew that the son of Satan would lure an army of demons here."

"What are you talking about?" Mephisto chided. "By the way, instead of thinking up schemes, shouldn't you be ensuring the Grigori's safety?"

"I'm here to settle things with you, Okumura Rin." Amaimon was about to squash Rin between his fingers with a shot from a Dragoon freed Rin. "You're pissing me off! Could you all just shut the hell up? Don't worry, you'll get your turn when I start killing you one by one!"

"Sir Pheles, I don't care how, just get rid of that demon." Casper ordered.

"As you command." Mephisto bowed.

"Okumura!" Suguro Ryūji yelled. "How long are you going to sleep there? Wake up already!"

"That's..." Arthur recognized the blade in Ryūji's hand.

"The Kurikara?" Shura gasped. "They managed to fix it?"

"I can hear it." Amaimon muttered. "I can hear Okumura Rin's heartbeat. Give that to me."

"Shima!" Ryūji tossed the sword over.

"Pass!" Shima threw the blade over to Izumo.

"Why me?" Izumo whined.

"Kamiki, over here!" Yukio called.

"Binding Spell #63: Locking Bondage Stripes!" Ami secured the attacking Amaimon with a chain of light, giving Yukio a clear path to his fallen sibling.

"Wake up." Yukio placed the sword in Rin's body. "Rin, wake up."

With his demonic powers awakened, Rin stood up.

"I'll crush you!" Amaimon swore, breaking free of his binds.

"I ain't dead yet." Rin growled, slashing Amaimon's face.

"Binding Spell #4: Crawling Rope!" Ami sent a rope of light at Amaimon, effectively keeping him immobile and allowing Rin to stab the Demon King in the face.

"No way..." Amaimon stammered. "I'm... the Earth King... I can't lose!" he wailed. "Brother!"

"What are you doing?" Ryūji gaped when Arthur rested the edge of his sword on Rin's neck, the half-demon having fallen unconscious after the short fight.

"I am slaying the spawn of Satan." Arthur replied.

"Stop, Angel." Casper voiced.

"We will take Sir Pheles' gamble." Melchior added.

"Will he become the savior of Assiah, or a demon king that will bring upon the destruction of everything, we have no choice but to see for ourselves." Balthasar admitted.

"I summoned you all here for a reason." Mephisto gathered the teachers of the Academy for an emergency staff meeting. "We have received a notice from the Vatican Headquarters. So from today on, we are officially raising Okumura Rin, the son of Satan here in the True Cross Academy."

"Question." someone raised his hand.

"Yes, Inokawa?" Mephisto asked.

"I heard the fire in the forest the other day was the result of Okumura going berserk." Inokawa pointed out. "Is there really no danger?"

"I cannot say there is no danger." Mephisto corrected. "However, if he was ever to run berserk again, we have been ordered to kill him."

"The risk is too great." one teacher muttered. "Is there a reason why we are in charge of him?" he voiced.

"Not the tiniest." Mephisto winked. "However, I like to gamble... on the potential of Okumura Rin. On a happier note, the Vatican Headquarters have graciously loaned us one of their esteemed Arc Knights who so happens to be one of our former students."

"Don't say 'loan', principal." Ami rolled her eyes. "That implies that I'm on contract hire and that is just insulting."

"Of course, Ms. Youngest-Arc-Knight-In-History." Mephisto teased.

"I can never read what going on in that guy's mind." Ami sighed, after Yukio confronted Mephisto.

"Seriously." Yukio agreed. "Every single one of them..." he twitched, reading the SMS Shura sent him.

"She never changes, does she?" Ami bit back a giggle. "Your left arm..." she started. "Is it alright?"

"How..." the male Doctor Meister blinked.

"I saw it," Ami replied. "At that time."

That night...

"Alright, this one's done too." Ami nodded, adding her reinforcement barriers to Mephisto's shields. "This is..." her senses went on high alert. "A demon in the school?" she frowned. "But how?"

SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
