Dragon Lord Draco, present and accounted for. Wow, this is incredible, over one hundred visitors, I didn't expect anything close to this when I started, not until I got to true cross academy at the very least. But no, you all had to shatter my expectations completely, not only have I gotten that many people to look at this story, I have six reviews, and I only need one more student to finish Rin's class, as well as a handful of teachers. I have made a few last minute changes to the class, they balance each other out at least.

To fill you in, originally there was four people who had the element of time, and with my original plan of putting Yukio as the teacher, I only had two people from canon in his class that had fire, so I did have an OC with a fire element. To be fair though, the change occurred after I accepted it, so I will let him keep it. But I decided to make shura the teacher, and remove one character that I honestly don't know why they are in the class, I have read enough of the manga that a little has been revealed of him, but I honestly am not a fan.

So far we have gotten basically all of Rin's classmates but one insect mage. Though, there is also the fact that our earth mage submission hasn't been finalized yet, they said meister and magic, but that's it. If I don't end up getting more from them the earth slot is open, but if they get back to me, they get the slot first. Additionally we have need of many teachers, so if you want feel free to donate there too. For any who are doubting why you would have the magics described in the insect element, or any of the others, allow me to reinforce, I haven't fully described any magic. There are more facets to all of them, multiple applications. There are no bad magics.

Five years later

Mephisto sat at the desk in his office, one long, claw like fingernail idly tapping against the wooden surface. A stack of paperwork lay in front of him, remaining mostly untouched. It wasn't that he didn't want to go through it, per say, it was just that he had more… urgent things to attend to. Suddenly, the phone jumps to life as it began to ring, startling him out of his thoughts. He stared at the receiver for a moment, before a smirk slowly started to spread across his face. It was obvious who was calling, and he waited until the last second before answering the phone.

"Hello, this is the wonderful Mephisto Pheles, also known as-"

"Yes, yes, I know who I called," Shiro interrupts from the other end of the line, making Mephisto smirk when he heard the edge in the man's voice. "Rin's blood ties are showing sooner than expected."

Mephisto paused, bringing his hand to his lips. "Flames or just enhanced physical capabilities?"

"So far just strength, he's only five, but he is already strong enough to leave some nasty bruises on adults. He hasn't realized that having this power is unusual, but one day he will, and I'd rather have an excuse when the day comes," Shiro explains, suddenly sounding tired through the phone. "I think having them visit a Well might work for that. I can explain to Rin about the magic and the need to be careful with people, rather than straight up telling him he's a Son of Satan."

Mephisto hums softly in thought, tapping his lips softly once again, "You are aware that a demons magic also gets stronger when in proximity to a Well? This could very well speed up the process of his awakening."

"I'm aware, but at the same time I don't want to know what happens when a five year old already capable of overpowering grown men would do when he learns that he is a demon when they are often depicted as evil incarnate," Shiro sighs quietly. "I know that he's a weapon to you and everything is a calculated risk, but I'm convinced that this is the right path. Better to risk his flames in a controlled situation than let him discover the secret by accident in a few years."

"Hmm…" Mephisto leaned back in his chair, folding his hands across his lap as he contemplated Shiro's words.. "You've really done it? You've come to see those two as your own children?"

"Yes. I don't care about their bloodline. They are my children." Shiro states with absolute conviction.

Mephisto paused for a moment before sitting up and starting to open the drawers of his desk. "Go ahead and tell them about the Wells then. I'll see you in a week. Curse you and all the paperwork you give me."

The line was quiet for a moment before Shiro replied quietly, "Thank you Samael."

Mephisto scoffed, "Please, it's in my own best interests. Besides, Samael is someone else, I'm not him anymore." Mephisto slowly put the phone down, before turning and looking out the window. He wondered how this would turn out, and if it had been the right decision...

He shook his head, muttering, "Get ahold of yourself, now is no time to be going soft."

Shiro softly shook his head before starting towards the large structure in the back where the dragons are kept. It is a massive structure, looking very much like a warehouse, but double the height of the other warehouse in town. It has three garage doors on each side, and oddly they are on the top floor as well. He idly wonders how the priests and dragons are entertaining Rin and Yukio. Opening one of the smaller, side doors, he sees the priests chasing Rin around Sylvia who keeps playfully nudging the other exorcists. Meanwhile Yukio is sitting leaning back against Sylvia's chest as he reads a children's book on dragons.

Shiro chuckled before putting two fingers to his lips and whistling sharply. "Now, now, Rin, what have I told you about running around dragons?"

Rin looks at the ground, "Not to…"

"That's right. Sylvia's known you for almost your whole life, so she wouldn't do anything, but other dragons, particularly wild ones, would have no qualms with gobbling you up." Shiro preaches before smiling, "Remember, meddle not in the affairs of dragons…"

Both children giggle happily before joyously shouting, "For thou art crunchy, and go well with ketchup!"

Shiro shakes his head in mock exasperation as he shrugged. "What kind of children find being eaten alive amusing?" The priests all laugh before Shiro and the kids join in. Even Sylvia's heaving, growling laughter joining the mix.

Once everyone calmed down, Shiro turned towards Izumi. "Izumi, go over the flight gear please? I got permission for Rin and Yukio to visit a Well." Rin and Yukio look at each other in confusion and excitement, beginning to fidget a bit. After a split second hesitation the thin young exorcist quickly ran off to obey. "Maruta, go check our saddlebags, make sure that we have enough water and snacks to fly over to True cross. It should be a three hour trip, and I'd rather not have to land on the way."

An overweight man walks towards the kitchen with a spaced out look in his eyes. "Naoya, make sure the dragons are especially well fed this week and get enough rest, I don't want any of them falling asleep mid flight."

A man with bandages wrapped around his hands just rolled his eyes in response. "Really Fujimoto? We already have the best kept dragons in the order."

"Right you are, unfortunately, but I want it to remain that way," Shiro replies somewhat sadly but with authority, earning a nod in response. "Seishiro you can help me watch the boys." Shiro turned towards the man with dark eyes and brown hair, who nods.

Rin hesitantly speaks up, "Dad? What Well are we going to?"

"And what's True Cross?" Yukio questions.

Shiro smiled, kneeling down in front of them and placing a hand on each boy's shoulder. "Well boys, I'm a member of the Order of the Knights of the True Cross."

Rin suddenly speaks up, "You're an exorcist? That's so cool! I wanna be just like you when I grow up!"

Shiro barely restrained himself from flinching as he remembers all the close calls he's had in his life. "No you don't. Being an exorcist is very dangerous. I have almost died many times in my life because of this job. In fact I found you two while on a mission, and the very next mission I had almost deprived you of having me as your father." Shiro shakes his head, smiling softly. "But anyway, I'm taking you two to a Well of magic."

"A Well is where two or more ley lines intersect-"

"What does in… intur… what does that word mean?" Rin interrupts, stumbling over the unfamiliar word.

Shiro chuckles before responding, "Where two or more ley lines cross. A ley line is like a river of magic, deep beneath the ground. A Well, on the other hand, is a place where all that magic can rise to the surface, not all at once of course, but enough that by entering a well some people can gain magic."

Rin furrowed his brow, trying to make sense of all this new information while Yukio paid rapt attention to his father. "So… does that mean we are getting magic?" Yukio asks hopefully.

Shiro ruffled his hair, "Thats right Yukio, you're so smart." Rin pouts and crosses his arms while glaring at the two of them. "Aw, don't be jealous Rin, Yukio is good at learning from book, but you are good at learning by doing." Rin relaxes a bit but still looks upset. "How about this, I'll let you try cooking as long as you promise not to do it without adult supervision?"

Rin bursts into a wide grin and starts cheering and jumping around happily.

"Are you sure about this?" Sylvia broadcasts worriedly to Shiro. "As much as I would love to finally be able to properly communicate with the boys, I'm also worried about how their magic would take shape. Even if we got lucky and they end up as a branch of warrior, when they never display their element, it would raise eyebrows. They are almost certainly going to be fire elementals, but even with Satan's flames sealed I don't think that the fire would be of normal colors, Yukio especially has me worried, he is a son of Satan, even if he didn't inherit the flames immediately doesn't mean a Well wouldn't bring it out…"

"It will be fine. Both Mephisto and I are planning on it, we will have only those who know how to keep their mouths shut and reserve judgement around. We shall only bring the bare minimum as well," he sends back to his familiar.

Rin speaks up, "What is it dad?"

"Oh nothing, Sylvia is just worried about how well you to will be able to handle it is all. Good news is that she's excited to be able to talk to you," Shiro replied gently. "You see, dragons that are brought to a Well as an egg are imbued with magic, making them bigger and stronger than natural dragons. Smarter too. The problem is that the magic is so concentrated in their body they also won't be able to have children, so we unfortunately can't give all dragons magic. But they can send their thoughts to other beings with magic, which is called telepathy."

"So coool," Rin replies, somewhat awestruck.

"Will I have telepathy?" Yukio asks.

Shiro laughs, "I don't know, maybe. But even if you don't if you find a familiar, your magic will bind the two of you, so you will be able to have entire conversations with them that no one else can hear. There's a little more to it, but I think I'll save that for another day. I think Rin's mind is going to turn to mush if I keep going." Laughter boomed throughout the room, much to the dismay of Rin, who only stared at the floor with a blush overtaking his face.

Shiro looks behind him. Including him and Sylvia at the point, five dragons are soaring across the countryside at a relaxed pace in a V formation. They have been sticking to a flight plan that keeps them away from the major cities as well as a large amount of small towns, and so far there's been no trouble. Everyone is clearly relaxed, the humans, the dragons, and even Rin and Yukio, who were only attached by a couple of straps.

To his right is an elegant looking silver dragon with a bluish tint, he has white fur running down his spine. There are frills like Sylvia's on either side of his head and a small nose horn. On his back rides Seishiro, his arms around Rin and Yukio who are both being held on by tethers rather than being fully strapped in. They are still too small for the method of all those straps and buckles to fit yet, after all they are only five years old.

Continuing in that direction is a red and orange dragon with two large horns pointing backwards from the top of his head, and three smaller ones running along the back of his head. He also has a red spade at the end of his tail, and his rider is Maruta.

Shiro twists to look at the other side is Naoya, on the back of a slender water dragon with webbed talons gills and a deep blue coloration. There are three frills running down the neck and body, one on either side and the four and eight o'clock positions on the neck and one down the spine, while a broad rudderlike tail trails behind her. All of them are about the same size of course, as is typical for their breeds, quite unlike the final dragon of their party.

In the back left is Izumi he sits astride a dragon that is a whopping seventy-five feet long from snout to tail tip. Unlike the other dragons, who fold their four legs to their body, this one lets his six legs dangle, revealing he is only seven feet tall. He has six ruby red eyes and his head is an off black that slowly fades to a soft green by the end of the forty foot long tail. He has four wings, each set in between a set of legs. The front wings have a wingspan of forty feet, while the rear wings are fifty feet from wingtip to wingtip. There are also a set of bony arm like mandibles that extend four feet past the end of it's snout. The ends of them look very porous and they are sticking out from the back of it's jaws. The wings also beat in alternation, front wings going up while rear wings go down and vice versa.

"This is Izumi, I'm still seeing no signs of trouble. I still don't see why we didn't fly over the cities, so long as we call ahead of time and stick to the route we would have no trouble." A voice echoed through Shiro's head.

Over the newly formed telepathic link Shiro replies, "Two reasons, because the children will enjoy this more, and because even though it would cut our time in half, anyone can figure out from the straight flight path where we are going and lay an ambush for us."

The other riders give the all clear. With that, the other exorcists start talking about various things and joking around. They were all having fun, seemingly relaxed to any who weren't a part of their tightly-knit group. Everyone was very worried about how this day would go and how the trip would end, and whether that would be good or bad.

When True Cross Academy Town finally came into view, both children were stunned into silence. Dragons of every color and breed were flying around, and giant stone golems stood guard around the perimeter of the upper levels. Shiro smirked and spoke over Izumi's magic, "You all owe me a hundred yen, as I said, both Rin and Yukio are quiet." All at once, the silence ended with everyone shouting denials before Izumi abruptly closes the link while holding his head and going limp in the saddle, with only the straps holding him in.

Everyone twists in their saddles looking to see if he's okay, quickly catching the kids attention with their movement. "Is Izumi okay?" Yukio shouts over the wind worriedly.

Seishiro replies, "Yeah, he was just using too much of his magic, so he fainted, but otherwise he'll be fine."

"He has magic?" Rin asks excitedly, "What can he do?"

Seishiro sighed not wanting to shout into the wind, "Ask Father Fujimoto when we land." His response made Rin and Yukio pout, but they don't make more of a fuss.

Soon, eight dragons started angling towards them, a black and red insect dragon pulling up alongside Shiro and Sylvia briefly before the eight dragons split off to resume patrolling the bizarre city. The five dragons continue making their way across the city, flying for the mansion. A few minutes later Izumi's dragon dips down to land while the others split the formation widely, circling the area waiting for the dragon landing pad to be cleared before they themselves land on the mansion.

Izumi's dragon scuttles along the roof on a pattern of red lines that show its reinforced enough for dragons, then the furred dragon glides down and lands as gently as it can to avoid jostling the children. "Thank you old friend," Seishiro says while his dragon proceeds to stride after the first. Next, Sylvia swoops in for a landing, bounding after the children before she was even fully stopped.

The water dragon glides down, sliding slightly before her relatively small talons catch on the pavement. She crawls after Sylvia hurriedly as Maruta's mount is already coming down to land.

The tension in the air was palpable as the four men stand beside Mephisto. Meanwhile, Shiro and the twins start down a hallway in the basement of the mansion. "The whole city, along with this mansion was made with the help of enchanters." Shiro explains calmly, "The methods that were used have been lost to time, but they have managed to make the entire power of the Well only come far enough up for us to gain magic in a single room. That's where we are going now boys, but know this, once the magic flows through you, it will change many things, some more obviously than others. But one thing is certain, you will need to be far more careful with normal people."

Shiro smiles reassuringly at the twins when they shared a nervous look with each other. "Don't worry, all I mean is that you will need to learn how to control your magic." Shiro puts his hand on an old doorknob. "Are you ready? The moment I open this door, magic will rush out, and into you. If you have the potential, and I'm sure you do, you will fall asleep for a few moments, and when you wake, you will have magic. Don't worry about falling though, I will catch you."

Rin and Yukio look at each other for a moment. They look at their father before nodding. Shiro turned the knob and opened the door, allowing for a bright light to pour out, in eight colors. Red, blue, green, violet, silver, orange, white, and yellow all blended together before breaking off and shooting towards them. The red swirls around the twins, the little that goes past focusing on Maruta, the white focuses on Shiro. Silver makes a beeline for Mephisto, Seishiro leeching just a bit off him, with the blue being absorbed by Naoya, and orange goes to a tired and sickly looking Izumi, who quickly seems to recover.

After ten seconds Shiro closes the door and lunges to the boys just before they collapse. As the light of magic fades they see that Rin's formerly jet black hair has lightened to a dark blue. Shiro looks at the others worriedly but picks the boys up and starts quickly walking back to the others who are opening another old door that kept any magic from being leaked. "We need to hurry, I'd like to be back at the Monastery before they wake." With that, they began to run back to the dragons before flying back to Southern Cross Boys' Monastery as fast as they could, praying that Rin's hair wasn't an indicator of his demon blood awakening.

Well, that's it everyone, the chapter kept trying to end, but I think this is a better point than after all the dragons from Rin's childhood were described. And as I'm sure some of you are wondering why I said there are no bad magics and Izumi fainted while using his telepathy, there are a few things to keep in mind, he only just graduated, and he has more than just telepathy. In fact, it's not even his main magic, and he held a link up for three hours with five people chattering over it basically the whole time. Anyway it's time for review responses now.

zorgon873: I'm glad you think it's interesting, I'd hate to write something boring, though, I bet my authors notes might be. The start is honestly the hardest part for me, don't believe me take a look at my other story's chapter one, whew that was horrible. I haven't updated it in so long because I'm that horrified that I thought it, and I was ready. I'm thinking I'm going to rewrite it as an AU since only one person responded when I posted an apology/status update on it asking what they wanted me to do. As for seeing where it goes, here's a little progress on that front.

Guest GirlUpLate: Yeah, most of it looks good, but unfortunately she can't be a summoner without time magic, and umbrakinesis is a light magic. I have yet to draw from the hat, so no one has two elements unless its for the plot, and both light and time slots for Rin's class are already full. As stated above, I have room for an insect mage, and maybe an Earth mage you can change your magic to any of the following magics to get a spot in Rin's class.

For an Earth mage a shapeshifter(warrior subtype can transform into animals) terrakinetic(move soil and stone with ease) or an alchemist(can change the battlefield drastically before the enemy arrive making traps and new walls). Insects can be Guardian(warrior subtype and can harden their body enough to defend against most physical attacks) telepaths and telekinetics

But I'm glad you like it, I wouldn't say it's completely original though, I took a little inspiration from My Hero Academia.

IndigoisBlue: hello, Thank you for the review. I'm glad you like it, I'm excited to write more too.

ChaoticMercy: I really appreciate your understanding, here is the reward for your patience.

Shiroikage: It's no problem. I would've been very frustrated in your situation, especially since I told some people that the chapter would be up soon, when I got in contact with my beta before I knew he was sick, gave an ETA and everything. Also, Praetor says; Thanks for the concern! I'm doing better now, and I am glad to be back. :D

ZenoZen: Oh? Discontinue it? Nope. That's not happening, I got too many plans, and too many people that would disappoint. Maybe next time don't say something like that, it's a legitimate point because that's how it seems to be for my other story. I'm not abandoning it though, it will end up being more work for what I'm planning to do for it though, I'm making it an AU rather than just parallel plot, have a little faith please. One would be surprised how much of an effect words can have, they can inspire you in many ways, inspire you to give up, to act, to stand up for yourself, or throw away your life. If it weren't for how much I'm looking forward to it, and the second part of your review, you very well might have caused the discontinuation. But alas, I am very stubborn. Hope you enjoy the new chapter.
