Hello again everyone and welcome to the next chapter of The Son of Satan in Yokai Academy. First of all, thanks for all the favorites, follows and comments for the last chapter. I'm glad no one has lost faith in this story and I would like to thank you all for being so patient and to let you know your patience will be rewarded. So last chapter, the gang had a run in with the mermaids of the Swimming Club and now they know never to cross Rin and Moka again and the gang managed to join the Newspaper Club. So this chapter, the gang gets a look at what the Newspaper club does and meet it's president and I'm sure you all know what his game is. Just a heads up be prepared for an unexpected cameo near the end of the chapter. Before going on, I'll answer some reviews.

TheDevilZero: Thanks amigo. And like you I too read a few crossovers of this fic and I was genuinely disappointed that some didn't even make it to 10 chapters let alone even continue to be updated. I'm glad you are going with Rin x Kurumu, I'll be sure not to disappoint you with future chapters.

Guest: I was thinking of Satan possessing both Kuyo and Alucard. It just depends on where the story will go from here but I assure you I will incorporate this somehow so stick around to find out.

Sonicflash78: I'm glad you like how things are going for Rin. I will include the True Cross crew in future chapters, like the Witches Knoll Arc. And I was thinking of having things start out a little sour between them and Rin, especially with Bon and Konekomaru, but they will mend fences in the end, but that's a bit of ways away so stay tuned.

Zehel2010: If I gave you the impression that Inner Moka and Rin entering into a relationship later in the story, I apologize and I will put you mind at ease, there will be no romance between the two. The relationship they share is one of mutual respect among fighters. Worry not, Rin x Kurumu is a definite. Hope this puts your doubts to rest.

Gwencarson126: I'm glad you are enjoying this story. That is actually a good idea for Rin to do a cooking column. He could even do it with Kurumu since the two are masters of cooking. As for Tsukune, I know there hasn't been much he can do but I was thinking of him having to learn the ways of becoming a Tamer Exorcist so he can better learn how to defend himself and be able to protect the people he cares about. Let me know what you think abut that and look forward to more chapters.

And now, without further ado, here is the next chapter. Read, review, and enjoy and as always, I own nothing but the ocs.

Chapter 7

Howl at the Moon

It was now night time at Yokai Academy. Many of the students were finishing up their homework for the next day and then turning in for the night. Others were getting ready to go to bed in preparation for classes in the morning. One female student, who apparently went out for a little late night swim, was in the locker room and changing into her clothes. As she was putting on her shirt, she saw something in the corner of her eye. "Who's there?!" She asked frightened as she covered herself. In the blink of an eye, whatever it was that she saw was gone in a flash. "Is there somebody out there?"

At the girls dormitories, another female student was in her underwear and about to change into her pajamas. As she was putting them on, a shadow in the shape of what looked like a wolf like creature cast over. She looked behind to see two glowing yellow eyes leering at her through her window, causing her to scream in horror. And just like before, the creature with glowing eyes was gone as fast as he came.

The Next Day

It was the end of the day and students were heading out to the clubs they joined. Before heading to the Newspaper Club, Rin decided to pop in on Miyabi and the Cooking Club since Miss Nekonome had to do a little more paperwork and find the club president and said she would be gone for about half an hour. Kurumu of course went along for the ride. After getting to the club, Miyabi and the rest of the club warmly and happily greeted the half blood and succubus. They even gave them a tour of their club room.

With some time left to kill, Rin showed the cooking club members a good way to clean pots and pans. He showed them that the thing to use was baking soda and water into a pot and boil it. He explained that when the burned pieces rise to the top, you then drain the water through a sifter and into another pot, which will catch the burnt pieces. He then explained that with the burned pieces gone, you can clean the pot with dish soap and water.

"Wow, I never would have though their was an easy and painless way to clean pots like that." Miyabi said as she jotted down notes in a notepad excitedly.

"It's amazing all the things you know Okumura and even more surprising that you're self taught." One female member of the club said.

"It's just a bummer you couldn't join our club because of the Swimming Club." One of the male members said, with the others nodding in agreement.

"Yeah, but at least we helped to save the boys from that sea hag's all you can eat buffet." Rin retorted.

"Yeah, serves Tamao and her cronies right for what they did. Seriously, I thought my kind were man-eaters." Kurumu added.

Rin nodded his head as he looked at the clock in the room and realized it was almost time to meet up with the others in the newspaper club. "Whoa, look at the time! Sorry Miyabi, but we better get going. Come on, Kurumu. It's time we got out butts to our own club room."

"Right behind you Rin." Kurumu replied.

"Bye Rin. Bye Kurumu." Miyabi bid her farewell. "And hey, stop by again and bring your friends along too. Our door is always open to you guys."

"You bet. Thanks again." Rin said.

"Bye Miyabi." Kurumu said.

Rin and Kurumu finally made it to the Newspaper Club's club room and upon entering, saw Tsukune, Moka, and Yukari sitting at the front of the room with two empty seats for them with Miss Nekonome standing at the front. The cat eared teacher noticed their presence and smiled at them. "Aah, Mr. Okumura and Miss Kuruno. Glad you could make it." She said not losing her smile.

"Sorry if we're late ma'am." Rin apologized as he and Kurumu took the empty seats.

"Oh no, not at all. You're both right on time." She said.

Rin noticed that Tsukune was looking a little pale. Already he knew what the answer was going to be. "Hey Tsukune, you're looking a little pale. Moka been sucking your blood again?" He asked his human friend with in a joking manner.

"Yeah, she has." He answered, Moka chuckling embarrassingly with a blush on her face.

"I'm sorry, I can't help it. Tsukune's blood is simply the best. Honestly I think I might be hooked on it." Moka said, making Rin shake his head in a playful manner.

"You really need to be careful Moka. We don't want Tsukune dying on us from blood loss, do we?" Rin said jokingly, making Moka chuckle again.

"Alright, now that we're all here, we can get started." Miss Nekonome announced getting everyone's attention. "I would like to officially welcome you all to the Yokai Academy Newspaper Club." She announced holding up a copy of the school's newspaper.

The gang started to look around the club room with confused looks. "Ummm, ma'am, are we...the only members?" Tsukune asked with a raised hand.

"No, of course not, silly." Miss Nekonome said jokingly. On queue, the door to the club room opened.

"Sorry I'm late, there were some things I had to pick up." A new voice said.

"You see, there he is now." Miss Nekonome motioned to the one who entered the room. The man who entered looked was holding two bouquets of pink and red roses. When he lowered them to show his face, it was revealed to be a boy with short cut black hair held in a red bandanna with a silver wolf pendant hanging around his neck. He was tall, easily about Rin's height of 5'8" and he definitely had the air and looks of a 'playboy'. The gang all looked at him with questioning looks.

"It's very nice to meet you all." The boy said to them. He then went to Kurumu and Moka and presented the bouquets to them, which surprised them greatly. "I'm Ginei Morioka, club president. But please, just call me Gin." He then saw Yukari and presented her with a single rose he took from Kurumu's bouquet. "Well, I guess good things do come in small packages. Those flowers make you ladies look even lovelier than you already are." The boy, now known as Gin added. Already there was something Rin didn't like about this guy, and it wasn't just because of his looks.

"Showing up with flowers. Gotta say man, you know how to make an impression." Rin said with a sarcastic tone.

Gin just looked with narrowed eyes, but soon changed his expression. "Ah, from your appearance, you must be Rin Okumura. I've heard of you, you know."

"Have you now?"

"Indeed. Word about what happened to Saizo Komiya spread through the school like wild fire. Apparently you've taken his place as the toughest guy on campus."

"I wasn't trying for that. He threatened my friends and I did something about it."

"And I respect that." Gin said as he put his hand out to shake the half-blood's hand. Rin smirked as he shook Gin's hand with applied pressure. Gin felt a jolt of pain in his hand from Rin's grip, but he kept up the facade. "Whoa! Well, gotta say Okumura, that's quite a handshake you got." Gin said with a chuckle.

"My old man always said 'never trust anyone with a limp handshake.'" Rin said with a smirk.

"He sounds like a smart man, your old man."

"Like you wouldn't believe, buddy."

Rin and Gin were chuckling in good fun, but everyone could feel the sparks flying between the two. Miss Nekonome decided to step in.

"Alright, that's enough you two." She demanded and the two let go of each other. The cat eared teacher cleared her throat before she continued speaking. "Anyway, Ginei here is the only other member of the newspaper club and he's also a sophomore. Since he's the oldest, he'll be the club president. So if you have any questions about, please direct them to him."

"Right, I'm here for all of you." He said casually with a hand behind his head.

"Oh, the faculty meeting is about to start. Well, I'll leave the rest up to you them, Gin." Miss Nekonome said as she left the room.

"Sure, I got it covered. Leave everything to me." Rin of course knew he was just bullshitting. He knew he would have to keep an eye on him.

Right now, everyone was sitting at a table with Gin at the head. He was about to go over the Newspaper Club and what the responsibilities of the club were. "Alright, lets get down to business." He started off. "For starters, I'll go ahead and explain what the Newspaper Club is all about. First and foremost, the club writes, edits, and publishes the school paper. When something happens on campus, we're there to report it. And we'll do anything for a story, that includes throwing ourselves in harms way if need be. So you better prepare yourselves guys, cuz this club is not for the feint of heart!" He said passionately.

"Wow, he sure sounds like a hard hitting journalist committed to the truth." Moka said, surprised at his enthusiasm for the club.

"I know, something tells me he might hold true to those words." Rin replied back, even thinking that maybe he was wrong about the club president.

"But of course, sometimes we report on the normal stuff." Gin added with less enthusiasm as he sat back down.

Everyone just sweat-dropped at that part. 'And just like that, newfound respect is gone. Pfft, douchbag.' Rin thought to himself.

"With all that said, do any of you have any story ideas you wanna share?" He asked the club members. They went into deep thought about their first story should be. After a few moments, no one came up with an idea.

"I've got an idea." Kurumu said. "How about that Peeping Tom."

"Peeping Tom?" Tsukune inquired.

"What Peeping Tom?" Inquired Rin.

"You guys haven't heard? There's this pervert that's been going around campus lately and peeping on girls. The freak is so quick that no one's been able to get a good description of him." Kurumu answered.

"A peeper is the worst." Moka said disgusted.

"That's for sure. This guy has got to be stopped." Yukari added.

"Hell yeah! And I say we use the Newspaper club to bring this sleazy creep down for good." Rin said excited. Everyone nodded their heads in agreement.

"Well, then the first thing we gotta do for this story is find ourselves some informants." Gin added.

"And how do we do that?" Asked Tsukune.

"Through the first rule of reporting; hit the pavement and start asking questions." Answered Gin.

With their idea for their first story, everyone set out to find informants. Tsukune, Gin, Kurumu, and Moka were gonna put up flyers that asked for information regarding the peeper while Rin decided to go around campus and ask some of the victims of the Peeping Tom with Yukari tagging along. She had heard from some of the girls in her homeroom that they were victims of the peeper, one of whom just so happened to be in the Cooking Club so they thought they should start there. After some walking, Rin and Yukari found themselves in the Cooking Club club room and went inside.

"Hey guys. What's up." Rin greeted the club, who returned his greeting happily, especially Miyabi.

"Oh Rin, welcome back!" Miyabi shouted with glee. Rin just smiled at her and the rest of the club, who were also very happy to see Rin again. "Oh and you brought Yukari, too."

"Hi Miyabi." Yukari happily greeted the twin-tailed president.

"So what brings you two here?" Miyabi inquired.

"We were hoping we could talk to one of your members, Nozomi Hotaka." Yukari answered.

"What about?" Said girl asked making herself known. She was a petite girl with fair skin, black hair that went past her neck, and brown eyes.

"It's about the Peeping Tom that's been going around lately. We're reporting about it for the school newspaper and we were wondering if we could ask a few questions." Rin answered.

"I remember you saying in homeroom that you felt like someone was watching you outside your dorm window a few nights ago. We were wondering if you remembered anything about this creep." Yukari added.

Already Nozomi was starting to feel uncomfortable having to remember that night. "Well, I do remember something." Nozomi confirmed with a shaken voice. "I was just getting out of the shower and was about to put my pjs on. As I was putting them on, I thought I heard a sound coming from outside my window. When I turned around, I caught a glimpse of someone or something hanging outside my window. Whatever it was that was watching me quickly disappeared as soon as I saw it." She said as Rin jotted it down in a little notebook.

"Did you manage to get a good look at the perpetrator?" Yukari asked.

Nozomi just shook her head. "No, the only thing I saw were his bright yellow eyes. They almost seemed...like a predator stalking his prey." She said hesitantly. She was then rubbing her arms, almost like she was trying to wash off the feeling of being watched. A couple of members of the Cooking Club went to comfort her.

"One last question Nozomi." Rin interjected. "You mentioned you thought you heard a sound outside your window. Do you have any idea what it could have been?"

Nozomi thought hard for a few moments before she answered. "Yeah, it sounded like clicking. You know, almost like a camera when it takes pictures." She answered.

Rin wrote down the information in his notebook. "Alright, that's all the questions we have for now."

"You know Rin, if you're looking for more info on this peeper, I have a couple of friends in the Literature and Anime Clubs who say they were peeped on by this creep too. Go talk to them, maybe some of them might be able to help you out a little more." Miyabi said.

"Great, we need all the info we can get. Thanks Miyabi." Rin said gratefully.

"Don't you worry, we'll find out who this sleazy perverted freak is and teach him a lesson he won't soon forget!" Yukari exclaimed enthusiastically.

Once Rin and Yukari got the names from Miyabi, they sought them out and interviewed them. Just like Nozomi, they didn't get a good look at the perpetrator, but they did say that it was a large figure but it's size didn't hinder it's speed. The only other clue that they got from the people they interviewed was that one of the girls might have noticed that the creature had what looked like pointed dog ears and a snout, like a wolf's. Rin just looked over what he wrote down from witness testimonials as he and Yukari headed back to meet up with Gin and the others.

"So what do you think Yukari?"

Yukari cupped her chin in deep thought. "Hmmm, let me think. According to eyewitness reports; Glowing yellow eyes, pointed ears, a long snout, and one capable of great speeds. Rin, I think we're dealing with a werewolf." Yukari deduced.

"A werewolf? I remember reading about werewolves in that monster encyclopedia, but I thought that thing about them being quick was total crap. Are they really that fast?"

Yukari nodded her head in confirmation. "Yeah, werewolves are quick alright. They're S class monsters, right up there with vampires. But while vampires are known for their strength, werewolves are known for their speed."

Rin just grinned confidently at what he heard. "Well, fast or not, I bet there's no way a werewolf can escape my flames."

"You got that right." Yukari affirmed. "A werewolf against a you, now that is a fight I'd actually pay to see." Both Rin and Yukari chuckled in good humor.

"Alright, let's go meet up with Tsukune and the others. See if they had any luck with getting any leads." Rin said.

"Can I ride on your back Rin? Can I? Can I? Pleaaaase?" Yukari asked with a puppy dog like face. Rin couldn't find it in him to say no to the young witch.

"Sure, hop on." He said as he knelt down low enough for Yukari to wrap her arms around his neck. The two surrogate siblings then headed to where the rest of the newspaper club was, smiles plastered on their faces.

The two were nearing where the rest of the club members were. "So Rin, you liking the newspaper club so far?"

"Well, it's not the cooking club, but yeah I'm starting to like it. I mean going around trying to get a good story, who wouldn't find that awesome." Rin responded. "Although, there's just something about Gin that I don't like."

"What do you mean?" Yukari asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Well giving you girls flowers when he first introduced himself, the way he looks at Kurumu and Moka, not to mention the looks he shoots me and Tsukune that just screams 'he wants to rip out our throats and eat us'. I don't know, but something in my gut tells me this guy is a creep. A total grade A sleazebag." Rin answered.

"Yeah, I admit it was weird when he gave us flowers, but maybe he was just trying to make a good first impression." Yukari deduced.

"Maybe, but I still don't like it, nor do I trust him." Rin retorted.

Yukari was silent for a few moments, pondering deeply. Yukari had only just met Gin and at first glance, she can tell he's not a bad guy, but then again, Rin's gut has been right more than once and she's known him longer. Plus she knows the old saying goes that appearances can be deceiving. "Alright Rin, if that's what you think, then I'll trust your judgment. I'll be sure to be careful around Gin."

"Thanks little sis." Rin said with a smile as he rubbed her head affectionately, making the young girl giggle happily. As they were walking, they saw Moka and Kurumu walking towards them and the looks on their faces said they were not happy. "Hey Moka. Hey Kurumu. What's going on?" Moka just walked past them not even making eye contact with them. Kurumu stopped and looked at Rin. "Kurumu, what the hell's going on?" He asked.

"Hey Rin. Club activities are canceled for the day." Kurumu answered.

"Canceled?! But why?" Yukari asked.

"Well, apparently Tsukune took a peek up mine and Moka's skirts while we were putting up posters." Rin and Yukari were shocked at what they were told. In all the time they've known Tsukune, they never would have pegged him as the kind of guy who would do something perverted like looking up a girl's skirt and catch a peek of their underwear.

"Seriously?!" Yukari exclaimed.

"Tsukune? Our Tsukune? You're telling us he was looking up your guy's skirts? That doesn't sound like him." Rin added.

"I don't know if Tsukune did it or not. But as soon as we found out what happened, Moka and I just slapped him out of reflex and Moka just left. After that, Gin announced that club activities were canceled for the day." Kurumu said. She then adopted a sly smile on her face and pressed chest against Rin's chest, making him blush heavily. "Oh, and just so you know Rin, the only one who can see my underwear is you. All you have to do...is ask." She whispered seductively in his ear as she brushed up against Rin, shocking him greatly and making him blush even harder.

'Holy crap, seriously?! Man, I knew Kurumu was ambitious, but I didn't think she would be so hardcore!' He thought before he gained a lecherous grin. 'But seriously, all I have to do is ask? Hot damn, I hit the jackpot with her!' He then felt someone pinching his cheek. He looked and saw it was Yukari who was pouting. Rin just chuckled awkwardly.

"Alright guys, come on and pack it up. Club is done for the day." Gin said clapping his hands as he headed out the building. Rin just looked at Gin with a narrowed glare.

"What's wrong, Rin?" Yukari asked.

"Hey Kurumu, was Gin with you guys when you were putting up posters?" Rin asked.

"Uh, yeah last I checked. Why?" Kurumu responded.

"Just call it a hunch."

The Next Day

Rin woke up the next day and met up with Kurumu and the two walked to school together. Rin spent a majority of the evening asking some of the second year students about Gin Morioka. A lot of the people he interviewed had mostly said the same thing. The girls said he was handsome and charming, some of the guys who knew him said he was a hell of a guy and had a reputation to be quite a ladies man. Rin was no psychologist, but he felt like all this had to be some kind of ruse to hide the kind of guy he truly is. The way he introduced himself to the club already raised some red flags for him, not to mention the way he looked at Moka and Kurumu made Rin even more suspicious of the Newspaper Club president.

Kurumu noticed her 'Destined One' so deep in thought and decided to find out what was on his mind. "A penny for your thoughts Rin?"

"Something's not right here Kurumu. I mean Tsukune of all people was accused of looking up your girl's skirts. I'm not buying it."

"He did say he looked before we slapped him. But I remember him calling out Gin's name before the whole mess started."

"And what happened after that?"

"Well, Tsukune accused Gin of looking up our skirts. But then he said something along the lines that Tsukune was the one who peeked first. After that, well you know the rest."

Rin cupped his chin in deep thought. "Hmmmm, I'm still not buying into Tsukune being a perv. Plus, there's something about our club president that isn't sitting right with me."

"Hey, Moka, wait up!" Rin heard someone shout and looked to see that it was Moka and Tsukune. Tsukune was running to catch up with Moka and tried to explain the situation to her, but she was avoiding him completely, staying a good three feet away from him. "Like I said I didn't mean to do it." He tried to explain.

"I don't care. I don't want to see you anymore." She declared, shocking Tsukune as well as the two demons.

"Ouch." Rin said. Moka then walked up to Rin and Kurumu. "Hey uh, something you want to talk about Moka?" He asked.

"Nope, not at all." The pink haired vampiress responded. "Hey, is it okay if I walk to school with you two?" Tsukune looked like a knife was just shoved deep into his heart. Rin had to try and find a way to help his friend. No way in hell was he going to leave him hanging in the wind.

"Uhhh, actually why don't you two go on ahead. I'm gonna have a word with Tsukune." Rin responded.

"Alright then." Moka said.

"See you in class Rin." Kurumu added.

With the two girls gone, Rin was now face to face with Tsukune. "So you mind telling me what the hell happened yesterday?"

"Rin, come on man. I'm not a peeper. This is all just a big misunderstanding." He immediately answers.

"But you did peek at their panties, didn't you?"

"No, of course not! Well, actually technically I did but-" He noticed Rin had a disgusted look on his face. "Hey come on, don't look at me like that Rin. I didn't mean to do it. You gotta believe me."

"I do believe you man. It's just...how the hell do you not mean to look up the girl's skirt?"

"Like I said, I didn't mean to do it. Gin was the one who looked first."

The last part made Rin raise an eyebrow in curiosity since Kurumu mentioned the same thing. "And you're absolutely sure he was peeking?"

"I saw it myself. Moka and Kurumu were hanging posters high on the wall and he crouched down as they were doing it. He even told them to go higher. When I saw what he was really doing, I told him to knock it off. Then all of a sudden he turns it around saying that I was the one who was looking up their skirts." He frantically answered.

"I knew there was something sleazy about that jerk I didn't like." Rin said. "But sadly, no one is gonna believe us without hard proof."

"What am I gonna do Rin? Moka totally hates me because she thinks I'm nothing but a giant perv."

"Calm down, Tsukune. Look, I don't think you meant to peek on purpose. I really don't, plus I'm sure Moka doesn't hate you. She doesn't seem like the kind of girl who could do that." Rin said before he started to scratch the back of his head. "Honesty, I'm not sure how to handle this, but just give Moka some space and I'm sure everything will be fine." Tsukune made a downtrodden expression. Rin then put a hand on Tsukune's shoulder in a comforting manner, making Tsukune look at Rin. "Look Tsukune, I promise you, I am going to find out what the hell is going on and work to clear you name. I give you my word." Rin said with a reassuring smile.

Tsukune himself smiled gratefully at his best friend's words. "Thanks Rin."

"You bet pal. Now how about we get our own butts to class before we're late." Getting a nod from Tsukune, the two boys headed off to class.

After school

It was the end of the school day and everyone was heading off to their club activities. Rin was still thinking about how he was going to clear Tsukune's name. Earlier today, Tsukune, being in the wrong place at the wrong time, was accused of peeping on some girls again and was given the cold shoulder by Moka and Kurumu. Rin met up with the girls and told them he would meet up with them once he found Tsukune. When he got to the shoe lockers to change out his shoes, he receive a surprise he thought he would never get; a letter was in his locker. From all the manga Rin read, he thought this could have been some kind of love letter. He looked around before he bagged the letter and ran to the nearest boys room.

The boys bathroom was empty, so Rin went into the first stall, locked the door, and looked at the letter. "I wonder what this could be." Rin said curiously. He slowly opened the flap of the envelope with anticipation and removed it's the letter at the front of the envelope. The note simply read 'Heard about what you are doing for your friend. Hope these help. S.' Rin raised an eyebrow. "S? Wonder who that could be. And 'these'?"

Rin looked into the envelope and inside were about ten photographs. Seeing what they were, Rin widened his eyes in shock and surprise. They were all pictures of Gin Morioka with a camera with an extended lens. He was taking pictures on a nearby rooftop of girls undressing after P.E., getting ready for the swimming club, pretty much anything that had to do with girls getting undressed. Looking at the pictures infuriated Rin. This creep was a pervert and had the nerve to frame his best friend. "Gin, that lying, creepy, son of a-." Rin said out loud before he realized something. "Holy crap! This changes everything! I gotta find Tsukune and the others!" Rin then burst out the boys restroom and ran to find Tsukune.

Rin felt like he ran a marathon looking for Tsukune. He literally looked all over the school for him. He then saw something up ahead that caught his eye. It was Moka along with Tsukune on the ground and surrounded by a bunch of angry girls. He could tell that this was a misunderstanding and he was about to get pummeled for it. Rin took off in a sprint to try and stop it.

Around the same time

Tsukune was having, for lack of a better word, a really shitty day. During free period, he was walking by the girls changing room and right at that moment, one of the girls who were changing heard a noise outside and looked to see Tsukune just walking by minding his own business. She immediately assumed he was the one who made the noise and assumed he was peeping on them, which Tsukune tried to deny, but she wouldn't believe him.

Later that day, Tsukune tried to explain himself to Moka and Kurumu, who had heard about the incident. But they wouldn't listen to him and just gave him the cold shoulder. Tsukune then met up with Gin, who said he would help Tsukune with his problems. Tsukune ultimately believed in him, not knowing what the club president had planned for him.

After some walking, the two found themselves on the side of a building. Gin convinced Tsukune to stand on a nearby barrel and look into the window. When Tsukune did, however, he received a shock when it was revealed to be the girls changing room. Gin snapped some pictures of Tsukune doing the deed, saying all the while that with these pictures, Moka would be all his. Tsukune suddenly realized Gin set him up. Gin then disappeared before the girls came out the changing room to angrily confront him, but not before knocking him to the ground.

"Hey Sicko!" One of the girls yelled out

"You're not gonna get away with this!" Another shouted.

"You're the Peeping Tom, huh?"

"Fess up you sleazeball!"

Tsukune, looked to see nearly a dozen very angry girls surrounding him and ready to beat him to a pulp. "No, wait! You got it all wrong! I'm not the peeper. I swear!" Tsukune frantically replied. But from the looks on the girl's faces, they weren't buying it.

"Oh? Then what were doing at the window just now?"

"That sure looked like peeping to me."

"W-well, you see..." Tsukune tried to find a way to explain himself.

"Tsukune?" Tsukune's heart sank when he heard a familiar voice.

"Moka?!"

"Is it true? You peeped on them?" Moka asked, shock and disbelief present in her voice.

"This is all just a big misunderstanding!" Tsukune answered. "I mean I did look at them, but that's only because-"

"He just confessed!" One of the girls interrupted.

"Oh no, not again." Tsukune said. Moka, unable to bear the sight of one of her most beloved friends accused of such a heinous act, turned around and ran away from the scene, shocking Tsukune. "Wait, Moka-"

"TSUKUNE!" Tsukune and the girls looked to see Rin running towards them. Before she could run far, Moka even looked to see Rin running towards the scene and went to find out what was going on.

"Rin." Tsukune said, all too happy to his best friend. The girls were surprised to see the half blood running towards them, some even blushing, and wondered what he was doing here. Moka looked at the half blood and could tell Rin looked like he ran a marathon.

Rin stopped in front of the girls and tried to deescalate the situation. "Hey, everyone listen, whatever is going on here, you're making a mistake. Tsukune isn't the peeper."

"He was just caught peeking into that window. What do you call that if not peeping?" One of the girls angrily retorted.

"Like I said, this is all just a big misunderstanding." Tsukune said.

"He's right girls. Listen to me, Tsukune isn't the peeper, I have proof." Rin replied, which surprised everyone. Rin then pulled out the photos he got and showed them to everyone. The girls were shocked and disgusted at the contents of the pictures. The charming upperclassmen that some of the girls even had affection for was a disgusting pervert who got his rocks off taking pictures of girls in their underwear. Even Tsukune and Moka were appalled at what they were seeing.

Moka then looked at Tsukune. "Oh Tsukune, I'm sorry I didn't believe you when you said you weren't a peeper. Can you ever forgive me?" She said genuinely apologetic.

"Of course Moka. I could never stay mad at you no matter what happens." He said with a smile, which in turn made her and Rin smile. Tsukune then looked at Rin. "Rin, where did you get these?" Tsukune asked.

"They were in an envelope in my locker." Rin answered. He then turned his attention towards the girls. "So, now do you believe Tsukune was set up?"

"We do now." One girl said.

"Grrrrr! When I find that creep, I'm gonna wring his neck!" Another girl said angrily.

"Hey, whoa, whoa slow your rolls." Rin said trying to calm the angry girl down. "Listen, I'll make you all a deal. Let us at the Newspaper Club put these pictures in the paper and expose Gin for the slime-ball he is. The entire school will know his dirty little secret. And once they do, you and the rest of the girls here can have at him until your satisfied. What do you say?"

The girls all looked at each other and thought about the half-blood's offer. On the one hand, they all wanted to tear Gin apart for being a creepy, lying, perverted asshole. But on the other, if they allow the Newspaper Club to go forward with the article, the whole school would know what kind of bastard he is and the wailing he would receive from not only them, but from practically every female student in Yokai Academy would be all the more sweeter. So after some thinking, the girls gave him their answer. "Alright Okumura, we'll let you all print the story. On the condition that we all get first crack at this sicko." The apparent leader of the girls said with a grin.

Rin matched the girl's grin and nodded his head. "You got a deal." He then let out his hand to shake the girl's hand, which she took. The deal was sealed and the three friends left the scene to go to their club room, where Kurumu and Yukari were holed up. Rin showed them the photos and they shared the same reactions as the girls from earlier.

"So Gin was the culprit this whole time?!" Kurumu exclaimed.

"How disgusting! This jerk is the enemy of all women!" Yukari added.

"Tsukune, I'm sorry for doubting you and slapping you yesterday." Kurumu apologized, to which Tsukune accepted.

"So where is Gin now?" Asked Rin.

"He was here earlier, but he left early. He said he had something 'important to do'." Yukari answered.

"So he doesn't know we're onto him. Good. I say we take this time to write our article and put these pictures in it." Rin said with a grin, to which everyone nodded their heads in agreement. He then looked to Moka. "Moka, I'm gonna need your help with something."

"What is it Rin?" Inquired the vampiress.

Rin still had a grin present on his face. "Let's just say it's time we had a 'chat' with our club president."

Later that night

Gin was having a really good day. Not only did he manage to trick Tsukune Aono into looking like the Peeping Tom and getting proof, but he just received a note from Moka saying she wanted 'to talk'. Gin thought that she would be upset that Tsukune would be outed as a pervert and he would be there to comfort her and sweep her off her feet. The note said to meet him on the roof of the girls dorm later tonight and that is where Gin is right now. He was looking for Moka but he couldn't see her anywhere.

"Hmm. I wonder where Moka is. Aw man, don't tell me I'm early." He said to himself.

"Nope, you're right on time."

Gin jumped in fright at the voice. He turned to see Rin leaning against the wall that lead to the stairs. "Okumura?! Dude, don't do that. You almost gave me a heart attack." He said jokingly clutching his chest.

"Please, I'm not that lucky." Rin replied sarcastically as he stood straight up and glared at Gin. Seeing Rin glare at him put Gin on edge.

"Woah, what's with that look man? That's a look you shoot your enemy with." Gin said lightly. "Anyway, what are you doing here? It's passed curfew you know. If you get caught, you'll be in big trouble."

"Hm, funny. I was about to tell you the same thing. What brings you to the roof of the dorms at this time of night?"

"Who, me? I-I'm here cuz uhhh...I'm on the hunt for a scoop. You know cuz I'm such a news hound." Gin said as he scratched his cheek.

"Oh really? You sure you're not out here to peek into innocent girl's windows and take pictures of them changing?"

That question stuck a nerve for Gin. "Wh-what are you talking about, Okumura?" He asked.

"Cut the crap, Gin. I know you're the peeper. I also know that you tried to set up Tsukune."

"Oh yeah? Prove it."

Rin just grinned sadistically, making Gin start sweating bullets thinking what it is that the son of Satan has planned. "Gladly." He then reached behind him and brought out a copy of the latest issue of the Yokai Gazette. "I thought as club president, you want to have a look at tomorrow's headline." He said as he tossed the paper to Gin. Gin looked at the headline and looked like he was about ready to shit himself. The article read 'Special Edition! Culprit in Staged Peeping Tom Incident Revealed to be Class 2-1's Ginei Morioka! Aono Framed by Morioka. Tsukune Aono Cleared On All Charges'. In it included the pictures of all the times he peeping on unsuspecting girls while they were changing, morning, noon, and night.

"W-w-where did you get these photos?" He asked terrified.

"Sorry, a good reporter never reveals his sources." Rin replied while wagging his finger facetiously.

Gin knew his goose was cooked now. If this story made it to the public, his reputation would be ruined. He thought the only way to stop that from happening was to get to the club room and destroy the other copies. He turned around to head for the stairs so he could run to the club room, but the way was blocked by Tsukune and the other girls, all of whom had scowls on his face. "Going somewhere, you creep?" Kurumu asked. Gin backed up to avoid them.

"It's over Gin." He looked to Rin and scowled angrily at him. "Just come quietly with us and maybe we won't hurt you too bad."

Gin just gritted his teeth in anger and growled. "Damn you! Damn you! My plan was so perfect, there was no way it would fail!" Gin shouted angrily as he threw the newspaper to the ground.

"Plan?" Rin wondered "What plan?"

"My plan to make Moka Akashiya MINE!" He exclaimed. "A couple of nobodies like you and Aono don't deserve to have someone as beautiful and majestic as her."

"So that's why you did all this?" Tsukune asked. "Going as far as to frame me for being a pervert. Just so you can have Moka. You really are a sick creep Gin." Tsukune said angrily.

"Hell yeah. You're the lowest of the low." Kurumu said.

"People like you make me sick." Yukari added.

"To think I actually trusted you." Moka added.

"Like I said, it's over Gin. Surrender now! Final warning!" Rin warned.

"Tch! I thought this would be easy, but now it seems I'll have to get rid of the both of you and take Moka by force." Gin then jumped high in the air and over Rin, landing behind him in a low crouch. Gin's body soon began to shake and before long, his body began to change. He sprouted gray fur all over his body, his face elongated into a dog like snout with a mouth filled with razor sharp teeth, ears sprouted on the top of his head, his arms and legs extended and claws grew from his fingertips and toes, and to complete the transformation, a tail emerged from the back of his pants at the base of the spine. His monster form was completed and he soon let out a loud howl at the moon.

"Damn, this guy really was a werewolf. Good call Yukari." Rin called out.

Gin soon set his sights on the two boys who have become annoyances to him and looked at them with the eyes of a predator about to pounce on his prey. "You and Aono have been a thorn in my side for long enough, Okumura. It's time to DIE!" He roared as he lunged towards Rin first, ready to tear him to shreds.

Rin barely saw Gin coming since it looked like Gin disappeared in an instant. He rolled out of the way of the oncoming attack just before Gin's claws could make contact. Tsukune and the other girls followed suit and jumped out of the way. "Damn! Looks like that book was right. These fleabags are fast. Guys, stay back. I got this." Rin said as he took Kurikara from his sword bag.

Gin saw Rin take out his sword and just chuckled arrogantly. "You really think bringing a sword to this fight will help you Okumura? Ha, you must be either very brave or very stupid. We werewolves are fast to begin with, but we get even faster when the light of the moon gets brighter. And tonight is the brightest night of all. There's no way you can beat me."

"You wanna put some money on that you flea bitten mutt?!" Rin asked confidently as he gripped the handle of his sword.

"Heh, if you think taking out a sword is gonna scare me Okumura, you're sorely mistaken."

"Oh yeah, let's see how you think after THIS." Rin unsheathed his sword and was once again engulfed in blue flames, greatly shocking Gin.

"W-what the hell?! Blue flames and this demonic power. It can't be...you have the power of Satan?!"

Rin pointed his sword at the stunned werewolf. "Final chance horn dog. Surrender now and everyone gets to walk away from this, no one gets hurt and no one gets torched." Rin offered. Gin just started chuckling, which put Rin on edge.

"Give up? Fat chance, Okumura." Gin said arrogantly as he started moving around the rooftop at breakneck speeds. Rin was barely able to keep up with him. "I don't know how it is you have this power Okumura, but as long as the full moon is out, the only winner is gonna be me." Gin then shot towards Rin while howling like a wolf.

Rin let out a loud sigh. "Well, I tried to give you a painless way out of this, but it looks like you wanna do this the hard way. Fine by me." Rin stuck his sword into the roof and concentrated. A ring of fire soon surrounded him. "SATAN PILLAR!" He shouted and soon the ring erupted into a pillar of blue fire. Gin barely dodged the fire pillar as slid on the roof a good distance away from Rin as he dissipated the pillar. Tsukune and the girls cheered Rin on. Rin concentrated and the blade of his sword became engulfed in his flames as he readied to deliver one of his signature moves. "SATAN SLASH!" And just like in his fight with Kurumu, a wave of blue flames was fired from his sword towards Gin, who barely managed to dodge the attack. Rin fired a few more slashes towards Gin, who dodged the attacks. "Aww, what's wrong horn dog? Afraid of getting burned? What happened to all that crap when you said when the moon was out you were practically invincible."

"Shut up Okumura! Don't you dare mock me!" Gin scoffed at the half-blood's words, but then he had an idea. He looked towards the rest of the gang and grinned evilly. "Well, with those flames, I can't touch you without risk of getting burned. But I know someone I can touch, your little friend Aono."

Rin became wide eyed in shock and anger at such a lower handed trick. "Hey, you leave Tsukune and the girls alone you son of a bitch! This is between you and me!" Rin said exclaimed angrily.

"All's fair in love and war. That's how the old saying goes." Gin said as he shot towards Tsukune and the girls.

"Tsukune! Girls!" Rin shouted as he took off in a sprint as the world looked like it was in slow motion. He brought forth a fireball to try and shoot at Gin.

Tsukune and the girls were terrified of what was coming towards them. "MOKA!" Tsukune shouted as he wrapped his body around Moka to shield her from Gin's attack while Kurumu and Yukari prepared to try and defend themselves with their respective powers. Rin was about to fire when suddenly...

"Nee." A little green creature appeared before the charging werewolf and soon giant tree roots erupted from it's stomach forming a shield to protect them. Gin hit the root shield head on and rebounded.

"GAH, what the hell was that?!" Gin angrily exclaimed as he rubbed his head to alleviate the pain. The tree roots soon retracted back into the tiny creature's stomach. Tsukune and the girls looked to see who or what it was that saved them. The answer came in the form of a tiny green creature with a light green body with some slightly darker green spots. It also had two leaves for a tail and a small lily pad for a hat. It also had a yellow flower petal around it's left eye and orange flower petal on it's right eye. Rin dissipated the fireball as he saw what made the roots and was extremely surprised to see such a familiar face.

"What the? Nee?" Rin exclaimed in surprise.

"Nee?" Tsukune and the girls asked, confused as to how Rin knew this creature.

"RIN!" Rin heard another familiar voice coming from the stairs leading to the roof. Pretty soon, Shiemi appeared on the roof. "Rin, oh thank goodness. Are you alright?"

"Sh-Shiemi?!" Rin exclaimed surprised.

Gin saw the newcomer and howled in excitement. He couldn't take his eyes off her beautiful blond hair and green eyes. And because Shiemi was in her school uniform instead of her usual kimonos, Gin also got an eyeful of her impressive bust. "Whoooheeee! Another pretty bombshell. So what's your name, hot stuff?"

"My name is Shiemi Muriyama and I'm a friend of Rin's." She introduced herself.

Gin glared angrily at the son of Satan. "Damn you Okumura. It's bad enough that you're friends with two of the hottest girls in school and now I find out you have a hottie like her hidden away. You really know how to piss me off."

"Piss off mutt!" Rin angrily declared. "You go anywhere near her, I'll cut you balls off and serve them to you on a skewer."

"Oooooh, I'm so scared." Gin mocked. While all this was going on, Gin never noticed Shiemi's familiar float slowly and carefully towards Gin's face. Gin looked to his left and saw the little green creature and was surprised to see it.

"Nee now!" Shiemi shouted. With that order, Nee blasted a yellow pollen from it's stomach straight into Gin's face, making him peddle back a few steps.

"GAH! What the hell is this?!" Gin then started to feel a little funny. He felt light headed and his entire world felt like it was spinning and he started to wobble back and forth. "Wha-what's going on? I feel...I feel so...sleepy." Unable to stand up anymore, Gin fell on his back hard and was fast asleep, reverting back to his human form. Hearing him start to snore, everyone breathed a sigh of relief that it was over. Nee then flew over to Shiemi and perched itself on her shoulder.

Rin sheathed his sword and dissipated his flames. He then faced Shiemi. "So Shiemi, what are-" He was interrupted when Shiemi ran up to him and embraced him in a hug, surprising him greatly, but he eventually returned the hug.

"Oh Rin, I'm so glad I got to see you again." She said happily with tears in her eyes.

"You're...happy to see me?" He asked confused. "But..I thought you were afraid of me."

Shiemi looked up to him. "Afraid of you? No, never. You're my friend Rin. I could never be afraid of you. Especially not after you saved me." She replied, surprising Rin even further.

Kurumu couldn't help but feel a bit jealous that another girl was hugging her Destined One. She along with Tsukune, Moka and Yukari joined the two to check up on Rin and find out more about more about this stranger. "Rin, are you alright?" Tsukune asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine guys. Don't worry about me." Rin said as he broke the hug with Shiemi. Shiemi herself saw the group and couldn't help but be intrigued.

"Rin, are these your new friends?" She asked.

"Uh, yeah. Shiemi, this is Tsukune Aono, Moka Akashiya, Kurumu Kuruno, and Yukari Sendo." Rin introduced his new entourage. "Guys, this an old friend of mine from back at True Cross, Shiemi Muriyama and this is her familiar, Nee."

Shiemi bowed to the group of friends with a smile on her face. "It's nice to meet all of you and thank you so much for looking after Rin."

"Shiemi, what are you doing here? Or better question, how the hell did you even get here in the first place?" Rin asked.

"I brought her here." Tsukune and the girls never heard the voice but Rin knew all too well and scowled angrily. The gang saw a young man dressed in a long black exorcist's jacket with black square framed glasses over teal eyes and dark brown hair with two moles under his left eye and another under the right side of his mouth walk onto the roof from the roof access. "It's been a while, hasn't it Rin?"

"You got a lot of balls for showing your face here...Yukio." Rin said to his brother, who casually adjusted his glassed with his right index finger.

And finally done with this chapter. Hey everyone, sorry it took so long to put up this next chapter. My reason for this is because I'm moving to Minnesota next week to start a new job at Activision. So the stress of packing up and finding a place out there can really put people into a very bad state of writers block. But everything is fine now, I found a place with cheap rent and I will start updating again. It may be a while to get my stories up since the job is an 8 to 5 job Monday through Friday, but I will start writing and updating my stories when I have downtime. Thank you all for you patience in waiting for the next chapter and for all the people who are following and favoriting my stories. So anyway, I hope you all liked this chapter and the cameos I did. If you find that there was something I could have done better or fix something, let me know in the comments. So next chapter, Rin and Yukio finally see each other again after months and I could only imagine how Rin feels right now, coming face to face with the one person who was instrumental in sending him away. Will Rin be able to let go of his anger or will this turn into an all out brawl between the brothers. Find out next time on The Son of Satan in Yokai Academy Chapter 8, Reunion. Until then, this is TravyMcNavy184 signing off and telling everyone reading this story to continue to stay awesome.
