Mizuki's P.O.V.

When the video finally ended there was complete silence around the room. I didn't even know how to respond to what we had just seen. I mean, if I am processing what was told, that means the sons of King Satan, the ones who possess the blue flames, which are Rin and supposedly Yukio, are either going to destroy or reform all of life, demon and human alike.

But what does it mean that the other halves of their souls are the only ones who can stop them, what... who is that?

I was brought out of my musing when the Lord Mephisto made his way to the front cheerfully. "Well now! What did you all think, a bit creepy but the graphics and transitions were spectacular were they not?"

The mean human with the stripped hair and piercings slammed his hand down on the table and began to yell, causing me to flinch and Rin to tighten his grip around my hand. "What the hell was that?! What kind of sick joke are you playing?! Are you telling me that both the Okumura's have a prophecy about them either destroying or reshaping the world?! That's insane, and if it was true, why are they still alive?! We should kill them now before they even have the chance to do so!"

By the end of his shouting, I was scared and shocked how he had the courage... or stupidity, to yell at one of the demon kings with the rest of them sitting near. It's like he had a death wish, with how much disrespect he just showed them. Then he also said to kill Rin and Yukio, again! I felt mad and wanted to make him shut his mouth, but I don't think I would win or get a clean fight after what he did to Rin and Yukio earlier.

I could feel Rin tensing and heard Yukio release an angered huff. Before anything else was done, Lord Mephisto held up a finger. "Now hold on a minute Mr. Suguro. I want you to think about this carefully. A prophecy is considered a fate that cannot be changed and must be completed in whichever way it states. If we kill off the Okumura's then we just seal the destruction of Assiah and Gehenna. If we keep both, then we have a chance to get a happy ending instead of one filled with death. Which do you prefer?"

Mr. Suguro, as Lord Mephisto stated, sat down slowly after hearing this, but still crossed his arms definitely as he asked, "Okay, then what are we supposed to do? I refuse to work with those offsprings of Satan." He spat King Satan's name in such a disgusting way, I feared a gate to Gehenna would open up beneath him and drag him down to be punished by King Satan himself.

Lord Mephisto gained a smirk on his face before turning around, putting his back to us. "Well then, you won't have to. For now, I just want you to continue as if nothing has happened." Mr. Suguro went to protest but Lord Mephisto spoke before he could begin shouting again. "No complaints Mr. Suguro. You said you refused to work with them, and I have no problem with that. For you, the three youngest demons in the room-" He turned to face where Rin, Yukio, and I were sitting. "I have a mission of sorts for you."

All three of us, heck, I think even Yukio's students, were confused as to what he could mean. Yukio was the one who asked the main thing we were wondering about. "Do you mean Mizuki as well? But she's not an-"

"I know she's not Mr. Okumura, but there is a certain reason she needs to join along as well." He turned his back once more. "You'll understand when you get there." He waved his hand causing pink smoke to form before it faded and showed a black folder. "This is your mission intel. I suggest you read this as soon as you get the time..." He glanced over his shoulder at Yukio. "Especially you Yukio. You leave Wednesday at 10:00 am. I'll explain to your teachers that you will be unable to attend school for the rest of the week. Good luck~"

Mr. Suguro quickly shot up again out of his seat, this time slamming both his hands on the table. "What do you mean those three have a mission?! Why aren't you sending all of us?! Letting three demons do an exorcist job is just-"

The whole time Mr. Suguro was yelling, Lord Mephisto's frown deepened and deepened. He finally had enough and cut the yelling student off. "Now, now, now, Mr. Suguro. If I recall, you just said you refuse to work with the two sons of Satan, is that not right?"

Mr. Suguro looked dumbfounded for a minute before shaking his head and trying to answer. "Well yeah but-"

"No, buts!" Lord Mephisto had a devilish smirk like he already knew he won... which he technically did. "You said it, and I complied with your wishes. But~ this mission is of most importance and Mr. Yukio is required to go. Miss Mizuki can help smooth things over while Mr. Rin will need to help out the two in however way he can.

Mr. Suguro's mouth opened and closed like a fish, which looked funny. Finally, after figuring out there was no way he could win nor say to do so, he sat down grumbling. "Great, now my dear brothers, would you please humor me by making your way to the amusement park I've built. It seems our youngest wanted to take our newest addition on a tour." Some of the kings scuffed while others chuckled. Iblis and Egyn seemed a bit excited and grabbed one of the twins each to drag there, Ilbis with Rin and Egyn with Yukio, arguing all the way. No matter how much Rin or Yukio complained about letting them go or waiting for me, they ignored them.

I chuckled to myself at the Sons of Satan antics and slowly got up to follow them. "Hold on there Miss Mizuki." Lord Mephisto's words caused me to freeze and throw him a questionable look. He only chuckled and told me to stay back for a bit then he would escort me to the amusement park. I could only nod, and sit down like I was told.

Once all the demon kings were far away enough that I could no longer hear them, Mephisto asked us a question that caught me off guard.

"What comes to mind when you think of fire? The first words you think when you hear or see a flame?"

No one spoke for a minute, but then Mr. Surguro snorted. "What kind of a question is that? Why exactly are you asking us this? It's a waste of time compared to the worry we should have because you decided to release the demon kings of Gehenna in True Cross with the two spans of Satan and no supervisor!" With each word, he got louder and louder until he was to the point of yelling.

Lord Mephisto gave Mr. Suguro a hard look before looking around at the rest of us. A sly knowing grin appeared on his face as he shrugged. "You want to learn more about King Satan's power and what the two twins possess of it, no? If not, that's fine with me. I was only trying to give you a little insight and maybe a bit of understanding of why the two Okumura's are so different personality-wise." He turned in the direction of the door and made his way towards it as if he were leaving. "Come now, my dear Miss Mizuki, we can't leave my dear younger brother worrying-"

Lord Mephisto was cut off when a hand slammed on the desk followed by the shout of "Wait!" From multiple people. Lord Mephisto did as they said and paused right before the door. His silence said speak now or keep hold of your tongue. I almost thought it was going to be the latter before one of them did.

"M-Mr. Pheles-san..." Stuttered a girl with short blonde hair. She was timidly holding her hand in the air as she spoke. "W-we...w-would you st-stay and h-help? S-so we could help Yu-Yuki-san and R-rin?"

Lord Mephisto didn't respond for a minute before he turned around with that knowing smile once more. "Well~, since you asked so nicely. What is the first word that comes to mind when you hear the word flames?"

The blonde girl went to speak again but was cut off by Mr. Suguro's scuff. "Destruction, uncontrolled, wild. What else is there to say about them, that's all they do. And they need to be put out."

I kept flinching at the harsh words he spat. The way he talked, sounded like he wasn't just talking about flames anymore. Though, unlike me, Lord Mephisto's smile seemed to grow at Mr. Suguro's description, confusing me. "You are right Mr. Suguro, but that's only half of it." He shrugged.

All of the exwires looked confused. Is that all they really saw flames as? There really is a lot more to them than they think. I slowly raise my hand, figuring I was here for the discussion, I might as well add my own thoughts. Lord Mephisto's eyes cut to me as he gave me a nod. "Go ahead, Miss Mizuki. Let's hear what you have to say. Maybe you'll be able to open these Exwires eyes."

All eyes were focused on me, making me regret doing this for a second. Steeling my nerves I tried to speak without flinching back. "Flames could also be calm and controlled. They can provide warmth and comfort...right?"

Mephisto clapped his hands together in delight. "You are absolutely right my dear. Though most only see the negative effects of flames, there is a positive to them too. Now look at it, but using the twins, Rin is uncontrolled and wild, impulsive you can say, while Yukio is more level-headed and calm, cautious if you will."

Everyone's face molded into shock when the words Lord Mephisto said registered. It caused him to chuckle at us. "You see, they were both supposed to possess the flames. Yukio the controlled and Rin the uncontrolled. Together they become as powerful as our father." Lord Mephisto looked down at his wrist like there was a watch there. "Oh, dear! Look at the time. Well, I think it's time we bid you adieu, come on Miss Mizuki, we can't leave the rest alone too long. Who knows what kind of mischief those fools could get into."

Lord Mephisto started out the door for real this time, ignoring all the shouts of protest from the Exwires who wished to learn more. I quickly scrambled out of my seat and hurried after him.
