(Y/N)'s Pov
~Flashback~
<Six-Teen Years Ago>
-Location: ???-

It began like any other day...

The Blue Night.

An infamous event in the history of the Vatican, that till this day haunts them. The day when satan for no apparent reason began to posses priest from all around the world. This tragic event caused so much damage and devastation to many people and left them scarred. Some have even children who were affected by this night, but that's a story for another time...

My story began here...

I was just a baby when I was abandoned in front of a tiny church. It wasn't much but that place eventually became my home, when that night happened... I was about three years of age. I myself was too young to remember it, but the head priest at the time bared witness to the raging blue flames as he himself combusted into flames and all seemed lost until...

The sound of flames could be heard as the screech of a man on fire broke through the night... his blood curled screams could be heard by everyone as everyone who assisted in the church ran towards the scream...

Father ???: "AAAAARRRRGGGGGHHH!!!"

Assistant ???: "Father Sakurai!?! "

Priest ???: "W-what is going on?!"

Priest ???: "I-I have no idea Father Sakurai just all of a sudden combusted into blue flames?!"

Priest ???: "B-blue flames...?"

Assistant ???: "C-could it be...?"

Priest ???: "Satan?!"

Priest ???: "N-no that's impossible?!"

Nun ???: "W-we have to help him!!"

Father Sakurai: "N-no!!! AAGGHHHH!!! S-stay b-back... k-keep the children safe...."

Assistant ???:" B-but..."

Father Sakurai: "I SAID STAY BACK!!! H-H-huah... EVEN IF I DIE WE MUST PRESERVE THE CHURCH... THE CHILDREN MUST BE PROTECTED!!!"

Shouted Father Sakurai as he began to succumb to the flames and was about to give in that was until a soft voice was heard... the voice of a young child.

(Y/N): "Papa...?"

Father Sakurai: "H-huh..?"

His head shot up as he quickly turned around to look at the young me that had just entered the room. He attempted to reach out to the little boy but fell quickly to the floor in pain.

Father Sakurai: "(Y-Y/N)... huaaa... huff... stay back my boy..."

(Y/N): "Papa!?"

The young me then rushed over to him in a panic seeing that he was in a ton of pain, but the other nuns and priest in the room attempted to hold me back.

(Y/N): "L-let go!!! Let go!!! I have to help Papa!!!"

Assistant ???: "(Y/N)!!! Enough...! Father Sakurai doesn't have much more time.."

(Y/N): "Let go!! Let go!!"

Assistant ???: "That's enough... please just stop fighting..."

Tears then began to fall from the eyes of the assistant that was holding me down, he has served the head priest for a good many years and today seemed to have been his last day of service until...

(Y/N): "I-I can save Papa!! I know I can just please let me near him!!!"

Desperate to assist him I started speaking nonsense... at that time I didn't understand much of what was happening, but the one thing I did know is that I wanted to save Papa. With new found determination I somehow managed to escape the grip of the assistant and ran towards him as fast as my three year old body could possibly go.

Father Sakurai: "(Y-Y/N) n-no... s-s... STAY BACK!!!! IF YOU TOUCH THIS FLAME YOU TOO WILL DIE!!! AGGGGHHH!!"

Not being able to handle the flames anymore he fell to the ground ready to give in. When all hoped seemed to fade away the other could only look away fearing the worse.

I...

I however jumped towards him...

All seemed to be pointless that was until...

A miracle happened...

(Y/N): "Heheheheh!!Yay~ Papa is okay now!!"

The young boy began to bounce in joy seeing as the current threat has diminished... Papa was no longer on fire... I don't exactly remember what happened but I recall that they all had a shocked expression.

Assistant ???: "H-huh... h-how could this have happened...?"

Nun ???: "W-what happened to Satan's flame?"

Priest ???: "D-did that boy do something?"

Father Sakurai: "(Y-Y/N)... w-what did you do...?"

(Y/N): "Hehehehe I saved Papa~!"

I said making a silly pose not understanding the seriousness of this situation. Meanwhile most of the adults looked at the young version of me in fear.

Assistant ???: "Doesn't that mean...?"

Nun ???: "W-what could it mean...?!"

Priest ???: "Could he actually be a demon?!"

Priest ???: "N-no that's not possible...?"

Assistant ???: "A half-demon...?"

Father Sakurai: "Regardless of what he is... we need to take him to the Vatican."

Nun ???: "Father Sakurai!? Are you okay?"

The Nun said rushing to his side and helped him get on his feet. The assistant soon then followed her to help up the father.

Father ???: "H-heh... I'm okay badly burned but otherwise I'm still alive... Satan has attempted to possess me... but it looks like I wasn't suitable with him... however, that's not important here... (Y/N)..."

(Y/N): "Hehehe!! Yes, Papa?"

Father Sakurai: "You may have a power that will cause you a lot of pain in the future..."

I could only tilt my head in confusion... Father Sakurai then put his hand on my head and gave it a soft rub.

Father Sakurai: "You're going to become someone really important to insure that this battle with Satan will one day end."

He gave a sad smile...

After that day... what happened was reported to the Vatican. Due to my age, however they were told that they would return once I have grown a bit more. Sadly things began to change all around me after that incident... one by one the people who would always talk to me and treated me with kindness, would now treat me cold and distant as if they... feared me.

Something grew within them after that night... after all a child who could quell the flames of Satan is something to fear... little did I know even father Sakurai felt the same fear.

Then came that fateful day... hearing of this particular event has caused some interest to be shown by the Vatican. As promised when I became an old enough a member of the Vatican came to take me away from the home I know for many years. There I stood silent as Papa and the Vatican member takes about my fate.

Vatican Member ???: "So this is the child you spoke of... he seems to have grown a bit... so if what you say is true, he managed to quell Satan's flame?"

Father Sakurai: "Yeah... I've heard about this happening all over the world... people would just combust into flames..."

Vatican Member ???: "Yeah... for reasons we don't know, Satan has attempted to possess many people around the world, however no one can handle him for too long less they succumb to the flame. For you to have survived is nothing short of a miracle..."

Father Sakurai: "Yeah... and it's all thanks to the boy, (Y/N)."

Vatican Member ???: "Hmmm... if what you have said is true then we'll have to take the boy."

Father Sakurai: "I see... but what if it was just a mistake...? What if the flames just went away on their own.."

Vatican Member ???: "Impossible... "

Father Sakurai: "You can't possibly know that for sure."

Vatican Member ???: "Tell that to the many who suffered at the hands of the blue flame on the Blue Night... even if it turns out not to be true the chance of having a "safety precaution" against another Blue Night the better."

Father Sakurai: "B-but to take the boy all of a sudden..."

He was cut of by the Vatican member as he stood up, gave him a stern look and began to speak again.

Vatican Member ???: "You don't seem to understand the utmost importance of having someone with this ability... we may be able to finally have a stand against Satan and his demons... we can probably end this war! Despite what you have to say the decision has already been made. We will take the boy."

Father Sakurai: "I-I see.... it pains me to say it but very well..."

Vatican Member ???: "You shouldn't lie to yourself. You no longer have to play the good father."

Father Sakurai's eye shot open as the Vatican member said that... I didn't understand it at the time... I just stayed quite. Soon after more men came into our small church and soon enough I was take by those men.

(Y/N): "B-but... I don't want to leave Papa... a-and everyone else..."

My pleas went on deafs ears as they said nothing and continued with their goal and took me away. I didn't even have the chance to say good-bye to those I cared for... to the ones who raised me... but I saw a look of relief on their face.. as if they got rid of a weight that was holding them down for so long.

And that leads us up to now...

~Time Skip~
<Current Time>
-Location: ???-

-BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMM-

A sudden explosion in the middle of the night sounded out alerting the current inhabitants of this forest to quite a surprise. All types of animals then began to run in fear of what may or may not happened in the next couple of minutes.

Middle-Class Exorcist ???: "My oh my... do we have quite the mess to deal with..."

All of a sudden a giant lizard like creature came out which clearly was the cause of the explosion that occurred earlier.

???: "S-so this is the Salamander demon that went on a rampage nears these woods.. I-I wonder why B-big brother wanted this mission..."

Low-Class Exorcist ???: "~Sigh~ You know how the Young Master is... he's always accepting mission's that don't suit him..."

Middle-Class Exorcist ???: "Where is the Young Master anyways...?"

-RRRRRRROOOOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRRRR-

The salamander gave off a nasty roar as it prepares to send another fire breath towards my fellow comrades, however I would not give it the chance to do so. From the leaves of a tree I jumped out and made my appearance with my hand on the hilt of my blade.

(Y/N): "Ittoryu Iai: Shishi Sonson."

Unsheathing my katana and then quickly sheathing it again as I was now standing behind the salamander after striking it down. The demon then let out a roar of pain as it began to fade away into nothing leaving only the five man group of exorcist alone.

Middle-Class Exorcist ???: "Ahh, there he is... what took you long, Young Master?"

(Y/N): "Ahh Hibiki, where are the others?"

Middle-Class Exorcist ???: "We're right behind you, (Y/N)-sama!"

(Y/N): "Ahhh Aito, Hanabi, Tsuki. What took you guys... I already took down the target."

Middle-Class Exorcist Hibiki: "Well we did find it first you just beat us to the punch, Young Master."

Middle-Class Exorcist Tsuki: "Yeah, (Y/N)-sama you're the one who took the longest to get her..."

Low-Class Exorcist Aito: "Young Master, you're sense of direction is terrible... we told you to follow us..."

(Y/N): "I did follow you guys!!! You all just took to many turns and I got lost...."

Hanabi: "Ano...? B-big Brother... we ran in a straight line... and as soon as we said to stay close and follow us, you instantly ran the other direction..."

(Y/N): "U-u-ughh..."

My soul was slightly leaking from my mouth as my teammates told me of my incompetence. Breaking out of my trance I held my ground and was about to say something to defend myself, until a noise was heard.

???: "Whhhhoooo~!"

This caught all of our attention as we looked up to see a white owl flying around. I smirked as I saw my familiar flying around in the sky, I then held up my arm and whistled allowing it to come and land on my arm.

(Y/N): "Ahh, Blanc. What are you doing here? Hmmm... what's that envelope inside of your mouth...?"

Aito: "O-Oi don't change the subject buddy!!!"

(Y/N): "Hmm..."

I hummed taking the envelope from Blanc's mouth and then proceeded to open and read the letter and was pretty happy with what I read.

(Y/N): "What... what is this..?"

Hibiki: "What is in the letter, Young Master?"

Aito: "No way is it what I think it is?!"

Hanabi: "A-ahhh I know it's another mission for B-big brother?!"

(Y/N): "Yeah..."

Tsuki: "Whats wrong, (Y/N)-sama..?"

(Y/N): "I-it's just that this mission is straight from the Grigori... themselves..."

Hibiki: "It's about time they recognize what the Young Master is capable of."

Tsuki: "That's great! (Y/N)-sama is finally getting the recognition that he deserves! "

Aito: "That's great news for ya buddy!! So what's the mission?"

Hanabi: "And how long will you be away... do you want me to come with you, Big Brother...?"

(Y/N): "Those bastards...."

I whispered with a bit of malice in my voice as I crumbled up the piece of paper in my hands. Sensing my malice, my fellow teammates gave a shocked reaction to the way I responded to the letter.

Hanabi: "E-eh..? B-big Brother... I-is everything alright...?"

Hibiki: "H-huh... Young Master what's wrong...?"

Tsuki: "(Y/N)-sama...?"

Aito: "H-hey is everything alright buddy... you shouldn't disrespect the Grigori like that..."

(Y/N): "Tch... doesn't matter now... I have no choice but to accept this mission... anyways let go... we have to go speak with the Grigori personally..."

I said walking away from them expecting them to follow me only to hear this...

Hanabi: "B-but Big Brother... you're going the wrong way.."

(Y/N): "E-e-ehhhhhhhh?!"

Hibiki: "Young Master... as much as I respect you... you really are hopeless when it comes to directions..."

Aito: "Some would even say useless..."

Tsuki: "Hehehe, I think his habit of getting lost is kinda cute~."

Hanabi: "I agree!! Big B-brother is always being cute..."

(Y/N): "O-Oi I'm not cute... I'm manly!!"

Aito: "A man wouldn't get lost as easily as you would...."

(Y/N): "O-Oi..."

Aito: "You know for someone who mastered Santoryu, a very difficult thing to accomplish by the way... you would think you'd be pretty skilled at everything, but no..."

(Y/N): "..."

Hanabi: "Ano... Aito-san..."

Not realizing that I was now standing behind him with my grip on my hilt and a slightly pissed off face, ready to cut Aito down. When he finally realized that is due to Hanabi's warning he quickly apologized.

Aito: "S-sorry... please don't kill me..."

(Y/N): "Tch... whatever let's go already... I've killed enough as it is because of this damn mission from the Grigori..."

Tsuki: "If you don't mind me asking, (Y/N)-sama... what is your mission?"

(Y/N): "~Sigh~.... it's..."

~Time Skip~
<A Couple Weeks>
-Location: ???-

Sensei ???: "Ano (L/N)-san, please come in and introduce yourself. Ahh, also tell us something about yourself."

Said the adult in the front of the classroom filled with students. Taking that as a signal I walked into the classroom, stood in front of the class and then introduced myself... man what a pain...

(Y/N): "Umm... my name is (L/N) (Y/N), nice to meet you... oh one thing about myself... oh! I'm pretty good at kendo! So I hope we all get along!"

Despite how annoying the situation is I might as well make the best of it. Due to some circumstances with the Grigori and what not I was ordered to come to True Cross Academy. As much of a pain it is I'm forced to take both regular classes and cram school classes. Anyways, looking around my so called fellow classmates looked pretty plain looking except for a couple student, oh well let get this over with...

-Several Classes Later-

I collapsed onto the floor as soon as I finished my last regular class of the day...

My soul was slightly leaking from my mouth, attempting to leave my body and end it's suffering..

(Y/N): "What the hell... I don't remember regular classes being that annoying... but it doesn't matter... I can finally start my cram school classes..."

I said as I brought out my key that I got earlier during my meeting with the damn mad clown.

I put it into a key hole and twisted it. I then proceeded to open the door and saw a long hallway, stepping through it I then began to walk towards where I thought my class was.

But I was wrong...

(Y/N): "E-ehhh.... I could've sworn this was the right way...?"

I said wandering these long narrow halls clattered with colors of gold, green, red and decorated with banners that share the same colors.

(Y/N): "I-I must've made a wrong turn somewhere... damnit... why is this place so damn big?!"

I then started to speed down the halls knowing fully well that I am late to arrive to my mission... which is attending cram school... those bastards...

-Wrong Turn-

On my way to try to find my cram school classes I took many wrong turns, this one happened to take me to a dead end... another one...

(Y/N): "AAAARRRGGGGGHHH ANOTHER DEAD END!!!"

-Wrong Turn-

(Y/N): "HOW THE HELL DID I END UP BACK IN MY REGULAR CLASSES?!"

I shouted earning some odd stares from my fellow classmate that were around me at the time, I digress I continued on my way to try to find my class.

-Wrong Turn-

Female Student ???: "KYAAAAAA~!!! YOU PERVERT!!! THIS IS THE GIRLS BATHROOM!!!"

-SSSSSMMMMMAAAAACCCCCKKKKK-

The loud sound of the palm of a hand hitting my right cheek could be heard throughout the wing of the regular classes.

(Y/N): "I-I-I'm sorry!!! I-I got lost?!?!"

Female Student ???: "HOW DO YOU GET LOST IN THE GIRLS BATHROOM!?!"

(Y/N): "TCH... LOOK I'M SORRY OKAY!!!"

Female Student ???: "I DON'T CARE JUST GET OUT!!!"

With another shout I ran out of the girls bathroom in fear of earning another smack.

I hate this school...

Not only am I lost, I'm late for class and there's a huge red hand print on the side of my face...

(Y/N): "That stupid clown... he gave me a key and everything, but it seems like it's pretty useless..."

???: "Woof!"

I heard a the sound of a dog and quickly unsheathed one of my blades and held it towards the neck of the small white dog that was standing on all fours in front of me.

(Y/N): "Enough with the disguise..."

???: "Hehehe... Eis Zwei Drei 🎶!"

With a gentle poof the dog that was on all fours in front of me was now a grown man with purple hair wearing all white and a hat to match his clothes.

(Y/N): "So the mad clown reveals himself to me..."

???: "As expected of the special transfer student recommended by the Grigori themselves! YES, Welcome, welcome to my academy!"

(Y/N): "Enough with the formalities, Mephisto. What do you want from me...?"

Mephisto: "Well seeing as I've gotten word that you have missed most of your morning classes, I decided to come pay you a little visit~! And here I thought you were a naughty little kid skipping class, but it just seems like you're just lost~!"

(Y/N): "I don't need you to patronize me... but I could use the help..."

Mephisto: "HAHAHAHAH SEE I KNEW IT YOU HAVE NO SENSE OF DIRECTION DO YOU!!!"

(Y/N): "Tch... if you weren't the headmaster I would've killed you for this..."

Mephisto: "Now, now no need to be so riled up on you're first day~ After all you want to make a good impression on you're new classmates! Come now they already have a bad image of you considering you skipped your first couple classes."

(Y/N): "Fine lead the way..."

I said as I sheathed Shusui as the clown just looked at me and smirked. He had a scheming type of glint in his eyes... for so many reasons I don't think I can trust this man...

Mephisto: "So those are the famous demon slaying swords that belong to the Demon Hunter, (L/N) (Y/N)... not bad."

(Y/N): "Enough with the staring come on, I'm late enough as it is."

Mephisto: "Understood! No need to be such a party pooper! Well anyways, you do have that key that I gave you earlier correct?"

(Y/N): "Yeah, I have it right here."

I said holding it up in front of him as he proceeded to take it and then put it in a key hole and twist. He then opened the door and stepped through it and then motioned me to follow him. Which I proceeded to do and eventually after a couple minutes he stopped in front of a specific door.

Mephisto: "Well this is it Demon Hunter, I wonder can you handle what's behind these doors~?"

(Y/N): "Heh... I'll make sure to exceed you're expectations."

Mephisto: "Oh please see it that you do otherwise it wouldn't be that interesting, however before you go in a question, why is it that some who is already considered an Exorcist by the Vatican attending my academy?"

(Y/N): "The old farts in the Vatican just wanted to make things official... considering I'm a different circumstance then most students I didn't attend cram school, now it seem they want me to make up for lost time, graduate cram school and become an official exorcist."

Mephisto: "I see..."

After giving my answer we just stared each other off, I gave my best poker face, but in the end I could feel that he saw through the facade. This man as goofy as he seems and acts... he's a lot sharper then the Vatican gives him credit for...

Mephisto: "Alrighty~! Make sure to play nice with the other student~! Eis Zwei Drei 🎶!!"

With a snap of his finger and a poof of smoke the mad clown was now gone... I better keep a close eye on him if I want thing to go smoothly. Regardless, instead of staying in my thoughts and standing him the hallway, I instead opened the door to my cram school class. I then proceed to walk into the class earning some stares from the eight other students that were in their, as for the professor he stopped mid-lesson to address me.

???: "Ahh, you must be (L/N)-kun... you're late..."

The teacher who looked oddly familiar said as he glared at me through his glasses... he then gestures me to come in the front of the class and introduce me.

???: "Everyone this is the new student that I mentioned. Please introduce yourself."

(Y/N): "Hai, hai... The names (L/N) (Y/N) nice to meet you."

???: "Well now, please take a seat anywhere that's free is fine. Now then, shall we continue where we left off at... Okumura-kun!"

He called out a young man by name, to which he stood up and walked up to the front of the classroom to receive a piece of paper from the professor. On his way up he passed me...

~Ba Thump~

I looked towards him as I felt something... what the hell was that feeling... I then looked at what he was looking at...

???: "Sickening..."

Looking closely I looked at his sheet of paper that seemed to be a test paper... he got a score of...

(Y/N): "PFFFFFTTTTTT?!?!"

HE GOT A SCORE OF TWO?! I seemed to have caught the teachers attention as he sent a glare in my direction... this guy really does look familiar.. well doesn't matter I decided to take a seat a row behind two girls, one with brown hair and another with purple hair. I was ignoring most of what was going on during class until a fight broke out between Okumura and what's his name... Suguro? Oh well that's besides the point the fight got so bad that the teacher held Okumura back and it seems like Suguro's friends held him back.

(Y/N): "Man these guys are too loud..."

I said practically to no one watching the two still bicker, I couldn't help but look at the Sensei... why does he look so familiar to me...? Actually now that I think about it, Mephisto mentioned I would know the Sensei...

(Y/N): "Mhmm...?"

Where...

Where...

Where did I meet this four eyed man...?

A moment of realization then hit as I quickly stood up and pointed at him... causing quite the scene as everyone turned to look at me.

(Y/N): "Y-YUKIO?!?!? IS THAT YOU?!?!"

Yukio: "(L/N)-kun, please refrain from small outburst like that."

(Y/N): "Ehhh... couldn't you say something along the lines of "long time no see" or "it's been a while"... so cold as usual..."

Yukio: "And you're too laid back as usual..."

(Y/N): "Hmph... Four-eyes..."

Yukio: "No sense of direction fool..."

(Y/N): "That's too long for an insult!!"

Yukio: "And your insult is too cliché!!"

What was going on between Okumura and Suguro was now happening between the four-eyes and me... after a bit of staring we both then laughed it off. Meanwhile Okumura looked at both Yukio and I, fathered confused of what was going on.

Okumura: "E-ehhh... do you know this guy, Yukio?"

(Y/N): "Heh! I guess you could say that."

Yukio: "Forgive me for my outburst. Anyways, that's all the time we have for today!"

With that said, most of the students began getting up one by one to leave for break... eventually the two girls in front of me both got up themselves, while the brown haired one didn't seem to mind my presence the other one shot a glare towards me.

(Y/N): "Ehhh? The hells wrong with you?!"

I shot a glare back as I said that to her, but she seemed to have ignored me completely and walked out with her friend... a voice behind me then spoke up.

Yukio: "I see you're as much of a people person as you were before huh, (Y/N)?"

(Y/N): "And I see you're still the same stick in the mud as usual, Yukio."

Yukio: "Hmm that would be Sensei to you, (Y/N)."

(Y/N): "Look at you! Raising up through the ranks of the Exorcist. Following you're old mans footprints I see."

Yukio: "Yeah..."

(Y/N): "How you holding up?"

Yukio: "I'm coping with it... though I'd be lying if I said I wasn't still hurt by it..."

(Y/N): "It's okay to feel that way.. especially after losing someone you love."

Yukio: "Yeah... though my older brother seems to be taking a little harder."

(Y/N): "Rin Okumura, right... if I remember correctly the old man was watching over both of you."

Yukio: "(Y/N)... you're someone that the Vatican already considered an Exorcist... "

(Y/N): "Your point...?"

Yukio: "So what is it that you are doing here in Cram School...?"

(Y/N): "Well according to the story the Vatican gave me, I'm making things official and am going to graduate cram school to become an official exorcist.."

Yukio: "Whats the real reason you're here...?"

(Y/N): "Yukio, I consider us old friends... but tell me... is Mephisto hiding something...?"

Yukio: "..."

(Y/N): "The Vatican holds some trust in Mephisto but as of late his actions have been somewhat suspicious..."

Yukio: "..."

(Y/N): "For now I'm here to keep an eye on him... the Vatican are also keeping tabs on him... though at the same time I will try my best to pass all my classes. I leave it to you, Sensei!"

I said as I began to walk of the classroom. Leaving Yukio to his thoughts.

Yukio: "Nii-san..."

We had a small break in between classes, but I didn't really have anything to do so I decided to head my way towards my next class which happened to be, Piratical Athletics.

Though I couldn't be helped but be lost in thought about the mission I was given the by Grigori.

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

~Flashback~
<A Coupe Weeks Back>
-Location: Vatican HQ-

After a whole trip back to the Vatican Headquarters, returning from the mission I was on with my team. I now am standing in front of the very people who sent me a letter for my next mission. I was beyond annoyed by them considering the details of said specific mission.

(Y/N): "Oi... you bastards wanna explain my next assignment?"

Grigori Memeber ???: "(L/N)... please refrain from you're outburst."

(Y/N): "Oh, forgive me for my rudeness... Tch like I care about anything like that..."

Grigori Member ???: "~Sigh~ Enough."

(Y/N): "Tch... explain yourself and this damned mission!"

Grigori Member ???: "For many years now, we in the Vatican have kept you close because of the unique ability you wield."

Grigori Member ???: "In fear that another Blue Night may once again happen..."

Grigori Member ???: "However, we require your assistance, you know of our Paladin do you not?"

(Y/N): "You mean old man Shiro?"

Grigori Member ???: "The very same..."

(Y/N): "What does he have to do with this?"

Grigori Member ???: "He passed away a couple nights ago."

My eyes widen in shock as he told me this...

That powerful old man killed?!

My shock could be seen from the expression I made on my face.

(Y/N): "H-how did this happen?!"

Grigori Member ???: "We know as much as you do... his death was very sudden and unexpected... and left many questions unanswered."

Grigori Member ???: "However we believe that Satan was involved..."

(Y/N): "Satan...?"

Grigori Member ???: "We fear something..."

Grigori Member ???: "Something grand..."

(Y/N): "Where are you going with this...?"

Grigori Member ???: "We gave, Shiro a mission sixteen years ago... and this mission was to exterminate the sons of Satan born from a human women."

(Y/N): "...?!"

Grigori Member ???: "We believe Mephisto is also involved in hiding them."

(Y/N): "Now wait just a damn second... there's no way this can be true."

Grigori Member ???: "We have no concrete proof, but his actions have been suspicious as of late."

Grigori Member ???: "Which brings us back to you, your mission is to infiltrate True Cross Academy and keep an eye in Mephisto. Report anything that you find suspicious and immediately take action if you find anything involving the spawn of Satan."

(Y/N): "Oh... and what if I say no?"

Grigori Member ???: "We have kept you close and have even allowed you to act on your own as an Exorcist, but do not forget you are not an official exorcist. If you fail this mission you will have lost your privileges that we bestowed upon you."

(Y/N): "Ho...?"

The feel of the room dropped as I glared at the Grigori. I then slightly drew my sword halfway through the sheath which seemed to have intimidated them.

Grigori Member ???: "(Y/N)?!"

(Y/N): "Are you threatening me? Exorcist or not I will continue to act as I always have."

As I spoke my threat, the Grigori meme era began to feel a slight chill from the pressure that I was exerting.

Grigori Member ???: "Y-you..."

(Y/N): "That being said I'll take your mission. I never did get to live a normal life, plus the extra training could help me towards my goal."

I then decided that we were done discussing things here, so I turned away from them and began making my way out of this stuffy room.

Grigori Member ???: "DON'T FORGET YOUR PLACE BOY!!!"

(Y/N): "Don't tell me what to do.."

I said as I slightly looked back revealing a glare, my eye was outlined with a tint of red as I looked down upon the members of the Grigori.

(Y/N): "You old farts have been too in control as of late... fear has been clouding your mind... therefore it results in actions such as this... heh... when I become the worlds strongest exorcist... I'll make sure this fear of yours will be dealt with."

Grigori Member ???: "Very well. You know the consequence of failing this mission."

(Y/N): "Big deal... if I do fail this mission I'll just stay in cram school."

Grigori Member ???: "We wish you luck in this mission, Bearer of Flames..."

And with that I left the scene leaving the Grigori member to discuss things among themselves. Meanwhile I went off to prepare for my own mission.

~Flashback End~
<Current Time>
-Location: Practical Athletics Room

Okumura: "HAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

Suguro: "HAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Shouted the two idiots in the room as they ran around in circles, they were suppose to be avoiding the Reaper that was following them, but instead they were trying to beat one another.

Annoying Girl: "What's all this?"

Brown Haired Girl: "Who knows?"

While the idiots were racing, the others students, myself included were watching them from above. That's when they all began to have a conversation between themselves.

Pink Hair: "HUAH~ Bon's no slouch; that kid must be pretty good?!"

That was until Suguro jumped into the air and jumped kicked Rin in the back causing both of the idiot to crash to the floor.

These idiots...

That gave the Reaper enough time to catch up with the two and attempt to pounce them. The giant frog like demon was about to land on them if it were not for our Sensei pulling a lever yanking the chain around the Reapers neck.

Sensei ???: "HEEEEYYYY!!!!! What on earth are you two playing at?! Are you trying to get yourself killed?!"

(Y/N)/ Annoying Girl: "Those Idiots..."

We both said at the same time which in reaction we both looked at each other, sent a glare at each other, and then looked away from each other.

(Y/N): "Tch annoying girl..."

Annoying Girl: "Senseless brute..."

(Y/N): "E-ehhhh?! You don't know anything about me?!"

Annoying Girl: "And you don't know anything about me!"

(Y/N): "You wanna go Eye-brows?!"

Annoying Girl: "W-WHAT DID YOU CALL ME?!"

Literal sparks were coming in between us.... looks like whatever Okumura and Suguro had, this girl and I have it for no apparent reason. We were about to start again that was until the sound of fighting brought our attention away from each other. Okumura and Suguro started to fight again causing the teacher to pull Okumura back while Pink Hair and Baldy lulled Suguro back. Seeing how the fight stopped the teacher then pulled only Suguro aside to talk to him about his behavior I guess... but why not Okumura...? Sighing I could only look around... feeling kinda weird about the fight I got into with a girl I don't even know I decided to apologize.

(Y/N): "Oi, Eye-brows..."

Annoying Girl: "..."

She said nothing...

(Y/N): "Oi!"

Annoying Girl: "..."

She said nothing again almost as if she were doing this intentionally just to spite more or for some other petty reason.

(Y/N): "Oi!!"

Annoying Girl: "..."

And there is was again, she ignored me...

However this time...

It struck a nerve with me!

T-this brat... ?!

She's completely ignoring me.... I was a say to say something, but decided against it.

Giving a defeated sigh I was about to give up until.

Brown Haired Girl: "Ne, Izumo-chan you should probably hear him out..."

Izumo: "Hmm and why should I do that, Paku?"

Paku: "I-it's just I don't think we should fight against each other after all we are classmates!"

This girl is so...

Nice!!

Izumo: "Hmph I don't care he just a rude senseless brute who interrupts class. I mean are you even serious about becoming an Exorcist?!"

(Y/N): "Tch..."

Paku: "A-ahh I'm so sorry about her, (L/N)-san!"

(Y/N): "E-ehhh? I-it's fine... I was rude... anyways you don't have to respond I just wanted to apologize. I'm sorry okay..."

I said looking away feeling slightly embarrassed about apologizing .

Paku: "See, Izumo-chan!! Now don't you think you should apologize too?"

Izumo: "Hmph!"

She huffed looking the other direction...

This girl... I heard about people like here but I didn't think it was true.

This girl is a Tsundere?!

Paku: "E-ehh.... b-but Izumo-chan...-"

I cut her off by waving it off.

(Y/N): "It's fine. I wasn't expecting her to apologize anyways. Either way I guess I should thank you."

Paku: "E-ehh?! W-why are you thanking me?"

(Y/N): "Heh well for being so kind! Thanks Paku!"

Paku: "U-uwuh?!"

Paku exclaimed? As she put both of her hands on her cheeks which burned bright red. This caught the annoying girls attention and seemed to have irritated her.

Izumo: "You senseless brute!!! Don't act so familiar with her!! Get away from her!!"

She said standing in front of Paku as if she was protecting her from danger. Just what does this girl take me for...?

(Y/N): "Geez... I'm sorry okay..."

Paku: "I-Izumo-chan!"

Izumo: "Hmph....!"

And with that I backed off leaving them to discuss thing between themselves while sitting down and continued watching what was going on with Okumura and Suguro.

Man what a complicated girl... I feel bad for the sucker that marries her...

(Y/N): "Hmm? Looks like the teacher already settled it with those two idiots..."

I said looking down in the arena like area that Okumura, Suguro, his friends, and the teacher were at.

-BBBBBIIIIIIVVVVVVPPPP-

Huh was that someone's phone going off? Who has there phone on them at this time... and it's the teacher... how do I know this you ask? Its because he just pulled his phone out and answered it.

Sensei ???: "What is it, Honey? Right now? Oh, what would you do without me, Kitten?"

With that he snapped his phone closed and addressed the students with one of his hands pointing up. At this point everyone was out of the arena.

Sensei ???: "Everyone!! We're going to be taking a short break!! Now listen up! The Reaper is ordinarily a docile demon but it has the nasty habit of reading people's emotions and attacking! Until I get back you're not to go down to the field, and you're to stay out of the range of the Reapers chains! Got that?! All right, that's it from me!! I'm on my way!!! My cute little kitty!!!!!"

As he shouted with all he had he ran out of the arena and towards... where ever he was going... Yukio was fine as a teacher, but this clown...?

Pink Hair: "Did you hear that? He said "my cute little kitty."?"

Izumo: "And study hall? For a P.E class?"

Paku: "Is that even allowed..?"

Suguro: "What the heck?! And he calls himself a teacher?! I thought that True Cross Academy was a sacred place of learning where only the highly motivated gathered... and the students aren't much better, either!!"

He said taking shot at Okumura all the while sending a nasty glare his direction almost as if he was trying to pierce him with his gaze alone.

Man how long are these two gonna keep going at it I wonder...?

Okumura: "Oh, come on!! You need to shut the hell up! How do you know that I'm not motivated?"

Suguro: "I can tell by the way you act in class!"

Pink Hair: "Here they go again...."

Suguro then gave Okumura some type of death glare.. it's as if he held a grudge against him for so many years.

I don't get why he's so mad..?

Pink Hair: "Bon, you're being so immature..."

Baldy: "Please stop!"

Suguro: "Back off, both of you! Just shut up! If you're telling me you're motivated, then why don't you prove it?! "

Okumura: "Prove it..? How?"

He then pointed towards a Reaper. Crap he's not gonna say what I think he's gonna say, is he?

Damn these kids are trouble...

Suguro: "That! If you can touch it and return without getting attacked, you win!"

Okumura: "Huh?"

Suguro: "A Reaper will look into you're eyes, and try to read your emotions. Fear, anger, grief, jealousy whatever it sees, you're dead if you waiver and look away because that's when it attacks. If you're trying to become a true exorcist, you wouldn't lose control of your emotions over a scrub like that. If you make it back here in one piece, I'll be glad to acknowledge that you're serious about this!"

Pink Haired: "Wait... Bon?!"

Suguro: "Of course, I'll give it a shot, too. Naturally, I'll win!! What's it gonna be? Made up your mind!?"

(Y/N): "Oi, you guys that's enough..."

Suguro: "Tch back off new kid!! This is between Okumura and I!!"

(Y/N): "If you do this you'll fail you know that don't you..."

Suguro: "You don't know what you're talking about now stay out of this!!"

(Y/N): "~Sigh~ Very well..."

Suguro: "So what do you say, huh?!"

Okumura: "Huh, interesting. Sure I'll do it."

Is he really...?

No..

It's a bluff. He's not gonna do it, he seems hot headed but when it comes down to it he can rationally think things out.

Okumura: "Is that what you thought I'd say?"

He said picking his nose..

I retract my last statement, this guy is a complete idiot.

Okumura: "Dumbass!"

Suguro: "What the...?"

Okumura: "I'm not doing it! What if I get killed by accident? And besides I have the same ambition as you no way am I gonna risk my life over something petty like this."

Suguro: "What the...?! Ahh! You told him, didn't you?"

He said shouting at his two friends seemingly embarrassed as his check slightly flared red.

Ambition... hmmm I wonder what they're talking about?

Both of his friends were caught off guard as they struggled to answer their friend after being accused of something.

Pink Hair/ Baldy: "Well.."

Suguro: "Ambition, my foot! You're just spooked, that's all!!"

Okumura: "Say whatever you want!"

He stood there for a good minute glaring at the floor...

He... the way he is now, I can tell that if he goes down there he'll definitely die...

Suguro: "Everyone of you.. why don't you fight?! Aren't you bitter?! I'm gonna do it. You just stand there and watch!!"

Okumura: "Hey, don't do it!?"

Paku: "What the... is he serious?!"

Izumo; "Oh, he's just gonna turn back, right? This is so stupid."

(Y/N): "Wrong... he's determined to do this... though if he continues he will die..."

Izumo: "Hmph... don't talk to me..."

I chose to ignore that statement as I was more concerned about what Bon was about to do.

-Step-

Suguro: "I'm..."

-Step-

Suguro: "I'm..!"

-Step-

Suguro: "I'm not a coward like you! I'm gonna become a real exorcist... and defeat Satan!!"

This sudden out burst left the whole class silent.... normally this would be a goal that a child would claim only for it to be shot down by cruel reality.. but despite that he clings to this dream and kept it. This fact was not unnoticed by the rest considering that Izumo just broke out into laughter.

Izumo: "Heh.... hehehehehe~ Jeez... what is he saying, that he's gonna defeat Satan? What is he, a child?"

(Y/N): "O-Oi! Look out Suguro!!!"

The Reaper read the emotions of Suguro and let out a fierce roar. Suguro could only cover his face, it knowing what to do in a situation like this.

Pink Hair: "Bon!!!"

-Step-

-Step-

-Step-

The sound of footstep could be heard as Okumura and I, ran towards the edge of the arena and jumped in. Though Okumura did something I didn't expect him to do... as the Reaper charged Suguro, he landed in front of him leading for his right arm to be swallowed up by the Reaper.

~Let go~

My headshot up as I heard that... time seemed to have slowed down as I felt the same feeling from earlier... when I passed Okumura.

~I SAID, LET GO!!!~

The Reaper for some reason stopped his attack and back away from Rin in fear. Why is that...? Could it be...? Okumura then turned to Suguro and glared at him.

Okumura: "What do you think you were doing? Are you a moron?"

Suguro: "H-huh...?"

Okumura: "Listen up, and listen closely! I'm the one who's going to defeat Satan!"

Suguro: "Huh...? W-what... what the hell?! Listen you're the moron! What if you got yourself killed? And don't copy my ambition!!"

Okumura: "Huh? I never copied anything. I'm the original.!"

Suguro: "What do you mean, original? I'm the one who decided first, you idiot!"

Okumura: "When, huh! What year, what month, what day, what hour, what minuet, what second?! How many times did the planet spin that day?!"

Suguro: "What are you a kid?"

Okumura: "Look who's talking!!""

They both clashed heads as the continued arguing...

I couldn't help but sigh in disappointment looks like there wasn't a need for me to step in.

(Y/N): "Man oh man... and to think I let out a little force... Oi both of you shut up!"

I said now standing behind the Reaper slowly sheathing Shusui.

Okumura: "Ehhh who do you think you're telling to shut up, new guy!!"

Suguro: "Yeah stay out of this!! You have nothing to do with this!!"

(Y/N): "Nothing to do with this? Of course I do!"

The sound of my blade being put back in it sheath could be heard.

(Y/N): "Ittoryu Iai: Shishi Sonson..."

-RRRRROOOOOOAAAAAARRRRRRR-

The Reaper let out a ghastly screech as it yelled out in pain as a giant slash mark appeared on its body soon following its demise. My classmates stared in shock as they saw what just occurred...

Suguro: "W-w-what...?!"

Okumura: "THAT WAS SO COOL?!"

Paku: "A-amazing...?!"

Pink Hair: "I-I didn't even see him attack...?"

Dirty Blonde: "W-wow..."

Izumo: "W-what is it with this guy...?"

(Y/N): "My ambition is to become the strongest!! So strong that my name will reach the heavens!!! And the only way to do that is to defeat Satan!!! If anyone's gonna defeat Satan, that's me!!"

I said pointing to myself with my thumb as they both just gave me a shocked expression. The rest of my classmates were in quite the shock too... why? For different reasons.

Izumo: "No wonder I didn't like him... he's an idiot too..."

Paku: "I-Izumo-chan...."

Pink Hair: "M-man... that guys as crazy as Okumura and Suguro..."

Baldy: "Y-yeah..."

Dirty Blonde: "R-Rin..."

I caught a glare from Izumo,looks like she wasn't to pleased with my answer as well considering how she bashed Suguro's dream.

Oh well not like it matter to me either way..

They both then began to argue about me stealing their ambition until they eventually began to fight with each other again.

Having enough of this I decided I saw enough and began to make my way up the exit. As I walked through the dark hallway, there I was met with four eyes himself.

(Y/N): "Did you enjoy the show...?"

Yukio: "..."

(Y/N): "Okumura Rin... he's one hell of a fool..."

Yukio: "..."

(Y/N): "But he seems to be alright..."

Yukio: "(Y/N), what are you planning..?"

(Y/N): "Yukio... enough with the games... I'm here to find the sons of Satan."

Yukio: "..?!"

(Y/N): "The Vatican, they're questioning the death of old man Shiro. They say Satan is involved in it... and apparently they have the suspicion that his spawn are still alive."

Yukio: "That's absurd."

His glasses glared up as he and I stared off against each other. His silence was answer enough and now the only question left is who it is.

And I already have an idea on someone.

Yukio: "The Vatican has kept a close hold on you, (Y/N). Due to your unique abilities.... throughout your years in the Vatican you have been given many titles... though there is one name that the Grigori specifically call you... the Bearer of Flames. Why would they send you here... the answer is simple..."

(Y/N): "Yeah... I'm here to exterminate the sons of Satan. They gave me permission to take any action required."

Yukio: "....."

(Y/N): "Knowing my title you should now know why they sent me."

Yukio: "....."

(Y/N): "It seems you didn't inherit the flames."

Yukio: "That ability of yours is unprecedented... Mephisto didn't expect the Vatican to take rash actions after Fathers death. How did you know it was him?"

(Y/N): "I didn't at first. But I sensed something in, Rin."

Yukio: "They don't call you the Bearer of Flames for nothing... so what are you going to do now...?"

Yukio question with a worried expression painted on his face. I scratched the back of my head realizing how much of a pain it would be to explain it to him.

(Y/N): "Well..."

Rin's Pov
<After School>
-Location: Abandoned Dorm-

-Time Skip-

FINALLY!!!!!!

I thought to myself as I was now standing in front of the dorms that Yukio and I shared.

Cram School was too long today and it was all because of that jackass Suguro, but now I can come home and relax for a bit.

Rin: "AHHH!! I can finally finish that manga!!"

???: "Oi, Okumura Rin!"

Rin: "E-ehh?!"

Not expecting to be called out, I looked behind me to see that is was none other then the new kid.

Rin: "Ah?! You're the new kid... ummm... what was your name again?"

He gave a slight smile as he walked closer towards me. I couldn't help but noticed that he had his three swords with him again.

What a weird guy who uses three swords, but he is pretty cool after what I saw in class earlier today.

(Y/N): "Heh, the names (L/N) (Y/N), but you can call me (Y/N)."

Rin: "Oh yeah, that's right. You can just call me Rin."

(Y/N): "Alrighty sounds good then."

Rin: "Yeah!! So what's up? Did you need something from me?"

(Y/N): "Yeah, I couldn't help but feel that we had somethings in common and I wanted to talk to you about something. You got time?"

Rin: "Oh.. yeah I have some time! So what's up?"

(Y/N): "Cool! If you don't mind can we take it to the roof of this dorm?"

Rin: "Yeah! Come on I'll show you the way!"

Weird...?

What does he want to talk to me about and what do we have in common...? And why on the roof?

Ahh so many questions, I'll just follow him for now.

Thinking of it now we don't have that much in common..

Well except the fact that we both have the same goal. To kick Satan's ass, but still I don't think that's enough to talk about...

I led him through the dorm to make it to the top he was pretty quite.

The hell...? He wants to talk but he doesn't try to make small talk... should I make small talk...?

I never really made any friends before... so I don't really know what to do here...

Rin: "Ahh we're almost here. Just through these doors."

Opening the doors the night sky was now visible to us. Not gonna lie this is a pretty good view I might have to come up here once in a while. Giving a small smile I looked back to see that (Y/N) was right behind me.

Rin: "So we're here, what did you want to talk abou-...."

I was cut of when his foot was forced into my chest, the force of impact shocked me and it was enough to knock me back and hit the mental fence that outlined the roof of the dorms. Being knocked back made me drop my katana... I was trying to get back up slowly but the pain from the kick was too much.

Rin: 'A-AAGH?! ~Hu-huff~ What the hell was that for you jackass...'

I said grabbing onto the fence to support me as I began to stand up. Meanwhile he used that chance to grab my katana and take off the cover I had on it.

(Y/N): "You know... in my years of life I've seen so much..."

Rin: "W-what...?"

(Y/N): I've felt so much...

Rin:....?

(Y/N): "And I've lost so much... I've been on so many mission for the Vatican... some I took with pleasure and other not so much."

Rin: "W-what are you talking about...?"

(Y/N): "This is one of those jobs... why do I always get stuck with the icky job...."

He said gripping my katana...

~B-Bump~

Huh..?

~B-Bump~

W-what is this feeling...

~B-Bump~

(Y/N): "You feel it too don't you...?"

Rin: "W-what are you talking about!?"

(Y/N): "This is all the proof I need... you're demonic heart is attached to this sword."

Rin: "Demonic...? W-wait what do you mean?!"

(Y/N): "There's no use hiding it...."

I then noticed he put his thumb of the hand guard of my katana... no... does he know who I am... what is going on?!

(Y/N): "Show me you're true colors, Son of Satan?"

Rin: "DON'T!!!"

-SSSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNKKKKKK-

With that he drew my sword...

All went quite... and for some reason time seemed to have slowed down. Then my body combusted into the blue flames I knew to well.

Rin: "...?!"

I could only stay silent as he slightly glared at me... but I also saw a look of remorse on his face. As if he didn't want to do what he was about to do..

(Y/N): "I'm sorry... that it has to end like this.."

He threw my sword at me and I managed to catch it... he then drew one of his own blades.

Rin: "O-Oi what the hell do you think you are doing?!"

(Y/N): "My mission here is to exterminate the Son of Satan... prepare yourself, Rin!!!"

Rin: "B-BUT WAIT I DON'T WANT TO FIGHT YOU?!?"

He said as he came charging to me with a glint of red in his eyes as I prepared myself for a clash...

-CLLLLLLIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNKKKKKKKK-

~To Be Continued~

Hope you guys enjoyed the first chapter about this! Again sorry for the lack of updates and sorry for the long wait @Nightrage67.
