Chapters ♘Rosario+vampire: Year of the Dragon
Prologue
Standing on what he assumed was a stage, he watched the chaos before him unfold, a multitude of colorful horses argued with one another about him, one party stating that he had done a heroic deed, the other countered, saying that he was a monster, that he enjoyed it. He didn't know what it was, but he theorized it was something considered evil among the bright equines, but most of all he noticed six horses standing in front of him, they seemed familiar to him, but he couldn't remember why, and far in the back he saw two larger horses, one white, the other dark blue.
"Why did you do it?" The yellow one with pink hair asked.
"He had to, or else he would be dead!" The the purple one yelled.
"Yeah, well they were put in the hospital because of him!" The blue one with rainbow hair yelled back.
"He did what he had to, ah know ah would," The orange one with the stetson said.
"Well apparently he enjoys it too much then," The white one with purple hair said.
"But he didn't mean to, i'm super sure!" The pink one exclaimed.
"Enough!" Came a call from the back, it was the tall white horse, apparently it was time to pass judgement, "We have made a decision," they turn their full attention to him, "You have been found guilty, and as such you will bear the full weight of the punishment, you are hereby exiled from this world, and you shall be cursed to return here only when we deem necessary, if at all in your lifetime, begone!"
"NO!!!" Screams the purple one as he was hit by a massive light, "SPIKE!!!!"
~~
Waking up with a start he jumped out of his bed, he took a fighting stance as he scanned the room, all he saw was his nicely decorated room, until he reached the door, in the doorway stood a small figure, having red hair, pink eyes, and holding a stuffed dragon while dressed in night clothes. He dropped his stance and beckoned the small figure over, slowly she approached him, he noticed that had forgotten to fully change from his workout sweats, it had been his final test to see if he had truly mastered all his fighting skills, leaving him exhausted.
"Can't sleep?" He asked as she sat upon his lap.
"Yes, mom and dad haven't come back from the business trip yet, mom always sings me asleep," she snuggled closer.
"Alright, i'll sing for ya Trinity, but it won't be as good as moms','' He said, then sung a song he knew since he was little. (imagine him singing it)
Soon she had fallen asleep, he put her down on his bed and sat near her, continuing to sing as he fell asleep as well, memories of his happiest and saddest moments playing out in his head, and before he fell asleep entirely he heard his sister mumble something, and it filled his heart with happiness, "G'night Emerald, I love you."
~~
Awaking again he found that Trinity was no longer in his room, he got up and pulled the curtains open, sunlight flooded through and illuminated his room, making him cringe and blink the sleepiness away. From behind him he heard the door open and someone enter, then he heard them speak, " Good morning young master Spire, breakfast is ready sir, and your father has returned, bearing some news he wishes to give you."
"Helpful as always Miguel, thank you," Emerald smiled as he began to dress in his usual attire, a nice relaxed shirt and pants.
Once he finished dressing he turned and walked out of his room, entering the wide hallway, some of the maids were talking as they cleaned, but stopped when they spotted him. All of them gave a polite bow, and to their surprise they got one back, they each felt a little better and returned to the work at hand, allowing him to continue down the hall toward his fathers' study. As he approached the door Emerald felt a wave of unease wash over him, he didn't know why, nearly as soon as he knocked he heard from inside, "Come on in."
As soon as he did a crushing bear hug greeted him, his father Igneal Spire held his son tight, "Um, hello father," Emerald managed to wheeze out.
"Oh, It's marvelous to see you again my boy, absolutely wonderful," Igneal said, unaware of his sons distress.
"Father," Emerald gasped out.
"Yes my boy?" His father asked.
"Air!" Emerald managed before nearly passing out.
"Oh dear! My apologies, I had forgotten my own strength," He released his son, who gasped and choked for air.
"Thank you," Emerald then got up, "You wished to speak with me father?"
"No fun, always down to business," His father sighed, "Yes, I wish to inform you that you are now enrolled for Yokai Academy."
"Truly?" Emerald asked.
"Yes indeed," Igneal answered back.
"Yes!" Emerald always wanted his high school experience to be at the school his parents spoke so highly about, "Thank you father."
"Of course son," Igneal said, "After all, what better place to learn than there?"
"I promise to make you proud," Emerald was in a half daydream, then his stomach grumbled.
"Yes well, better get some breakfast first," His father said, getting a shy smile from him, "To the dining hall then."
~~
In the dining hall were three other family members, little sister Trinity (you already met her), mother Homura, and big sister Rose, all sitting and eating breakfast, conversing over the days plans and other such things. But as soon as Emerald and Igneal walked in, all conversation stopped, they watched as both of them walked over and took a seat, then they switched to conversing with the two men, asking questions and talking, like the family Emerald so loved.
"So Em, I heard you got enrolled in Yokai," Rose said, staring at him with her ocean blue eyes and brushing her dark blue hair.
"Yes I did, and I look forward to it," Emerald smiled.
"Quite interesting," Homura gave him a warm smile that made her purple eyes shine, twirling some of her black hair.
"You expect a good experience when you know nobody there?" Rose said, antagonizing him.
"Will not matter, I know I will be fine," Emerald said.
"So sure of yourself already?" Rose smirked and sat up, "How about I fix that."
"Enough, both of you," Igneal raised a hand.
"Yes father," they both said.
"I think it's cool that big brother gets to go to that school," Trinity smiled at Emerald.
"Indeed," Emeralds mother said, she was never one for talking.
"Bleh, I don't like the idea of school starting after this weekend," Rose huffed.
"I find it as great news," Igneal said, giving his wife a smile.
"Yeah, yeah, I got stuff to do, later," Rose stood up and walked off.
"And I really should prepare for the school year," Emerald bowed and left the room.
Both Igneal and Homura turned to the last daughter, who looked up at them, "Oh yeah, I have training!"
"Well," Homura said, watching the little girl run off.
~~
Emerald was in the training yard of his home, practicing moves and honing skills, off to the right his little sister was practicing with his grandfather who, at the age he was, trained many generations of the family. The old man showed him during each lesson how inadequate he was, then when he completed his final exam something happened he never expected, the old man said that he was proud.
"Emerald," A voice caught his attention, he turned to see that his grandfather had appeared next to him, "I wish you good luck in Yokai, you may need it."
"Thank you, i guess," Emerald was unsure if the old man was again saying he was inadequate, or if he wished him the best, but as he turned to ask he noticed that his grandfather was back over by his sister, silent as usual. Returning to his workout he attempted to keep focused, but his mind kept wandering back to the coming year.
~One weekend later~
"Couldn't have got less sleep," Emerald yawned, all dressed in his uniform and walking to the bus, the morning had been a rush, each member of his household had some pressing matter. Looking back at the mansion he knew he would miss it, but he was ready for a school year.
The bus stopped right as he made it to the street, opening so he could enter, once on board he noticed three people on the bus, two in the very back, then another one seat up on his own. Emerald decided to sit by him, the guy had dark brown hair and light brown eyes, and the two in the back had white hair and blue eyes, the other had deep green hair and chocolate brown eyes. The lone kid answered his phone as the bus started moving, "Hello?"
He slowly walked forward as they entered the tunnel, the guys phone call cut out, he hung it up with a confused face.
In the very back the two others were chatting nonstop and laughing, Emerald walked over to the seat the lone guy sat in.
"May I sit here?" Emerald asked.
"Huh? Oh sure," the guy said moving over a bit.
"My names Emerald, good to meet you," Emerald said trying to be nice.
"Um, my names Tsukune," he said smiling, "Nice to meet you."
"My names Gon!" the dark green haired guy said leaning forward.
"And i'm Killua," the white haired guy introduced himself.
"Well gentlemen," The bus driver spoke, "Now that you know each other, you would be better off sticking together, this school can be hell, so watch your back."
Looking out the window they saw another world, completely different from before the tunnel, the door of the bus opened and they stepped out.
"Cool," Killua smiled as he looked around.

Chapter 1: First day chaos
Chapter 1
Walking toward the school, Emerald, Tsukune, Gon, and Killua talked, they all got along really well, laughing and joking, none of them knew the havoc the first day would bring.
"So," Killua said after a long silence, "What kind of monsters are you fellas?"
"Monsters," Tsukune said, trying to make it not sound like a question.
"Yeah" Gon held a smile, "I'm a Lycan!"
"I'm Vampiris," Killua smirked.
"Actually, I'm a dragon," Emerald absently answered.
"WHAT!?" Gon and Killua yelled, making Tsukune flinch back.
"Yeah, whole family is," Emerald shrugged.
"Wait, the Spire family?" Killua asked, Tsukune turned to them, he had heard of them.
"You hear that?" Tsukune asked, but nobody heard, he looked around just in case.
"Yeah, the same one," Emerald spared them a glance.
"That's so cool!" Gon said, "It must be awesome to be part of that family."
"Eh, it is what it is," Emerald said as he turned his attention back to the trail, they were passing a small graveyard.
"I know I hear something," Tsukune quietly said to himself.
"Hey Tsukune," Killua called, "What kind of monster are you?"
"What?" Tsukune didn't know what to tell them, "Um, I'm a c-"
Tsukune was hit from behind by a bike, sending him and the rider crashing, the other three guys watched in shock as they settled from the crash, and caught a glimpse of who hit Tsukune. The rider moaned and rubbed her head, catching Tsukune off guard as he stood up, who placed his hand on her leg, eliciting another moan from her, and reacting quicker than light he stood up and pulled his hands back, "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to."
"Oh you're bleeding!" She said producing a handkerchief, she then proceeded to wipe a little blood off his cheek, but before Tsukune could completely register she stopped, "I shouldn't, but i can't fight what I am, a vampire!"
"RRGr," Tsukune bit his lip as she sucked his blood, and before a minute passed, she was done, and he freaked out, "Gah! Do you just go around sucking blood! Is that what this about?"
"I'm sorry, but your blood tasted sooo good!" She said, "My names Moka Akishia by the way."
"Moka huh?" Tsukune said, he then stopped and turned around, the three other guys were watching them, each with a different expression.
"Really Moka? right here?" Killua held a disapproving look.
"Huh? Oh hi Killua!" Moka waved, "Good to see you cousin!"
"Cousin?" Gon questioned.
"Yeah," Killua answered.
"I see, rather interesting." Emerald spoke.
"W-well, um good to meet you, My name is Tsukune," He said, still captured by her beauty.
"I'm Gon," He called from the back of the three.
"And I am Emerald," He bowed.
"It's good to meet you all," Moka bowed, then turned to Tsukune, "Hey! you want to sit with me in the opening ceremony?"
"Yeah," Tsukune accepted.
"I think it would be best if we headed off now, don't want to be late," Emerald gestured the others down the path.
"Right," Killua said.
~~
Once they reached the school, they saw a mass of students talking and entering the school, stands were put up for the many school clubs,they all looked around and enjoyed themselves, except Emerald, who was staring at a person standing on top of the school. The person seemed to have black hair with a streak of orange, but Emerald couldn't see the eyes as they were wearing what looked like a trench coat with a hood, which was grey and orange, the person was surveying the school grounds, watching them all, waiting.
"Wouldn't mess with him," A voice right next to him said, making Emerald jump a mile.
"Uh, why? Emerald asked, the person had black hair and red-ish eyes.
"He's the strongest student I've ever seen," he said.
"And you are?" Emerald asked, "cause i'm Emerald."
"Name's Ginei Morioka," Gin said with a dazzling smile, "But call me Gin."
"Well Gin, thank you for the advice," Emerald smiled and walked away.
"Talk to ya later," Gin waved.
~in the classroom~
"Hello everyone and welcome to Yokai Academy!" the teacher said, " I'm your home room teacher, Shizuka Nemonome."
Emerald tuned out the rest as he surveyed the room, looking at each person, assessing them, and profiling them mentally, when he noticed a blue hair girl in the back row with purple eyes, he noticed that she was eyeing Tsukune like a piece of meat.
"Sorry i'm late," a voice pulled Emerald from his profiling, "I'm Moka, nice to meet you."
"Huh?" Emerald turned to see her standing, both Gon and Killua sat near the front and waved to her, she waved back.
"Pssh, she waves to them?" one students says.
"Yeah, she is so hot," another says
"Oh hi Tsukune!" Moka ran over to him and hugged him, "I can't believe we got put in the same class together!"
"What the hell?" one student yelled
"Why him?" another asked.
"What's their relationship!?" the other said.
"Eh hehe," Tsukune nervously laughed.
~~
Emerald was sitting on the railing of the second floor, looking up and down the hall, watching students pass, but he really wasn't paying attention, he was thinking about the student on the roof, how come he couldn't profile him, why did he make Emerald feel uneasy, so many questions. "Hey look," A student whispered, catching his attention, most of the students were watching as Tsukune and Moka were walking down the hall, in truth thought Moka was clinging so close to Tsukune that he would be wearing her. Emerald gave himself a small chuckle at his own joke, not often you become a comedian, but Tsukune didn't seem to think so, he looked up at Emerald as he and Moka left the building, he was giving a pleading look.
"Hello?" Someone poked Emerald from behind, causing him to back flip down to the first floor, then search for whoever poked him, who happened to be a guy with brown hair and light blue eyes, "My apologies, do you have a minute to talk?"
"Sure, I guess," Emerald got an odd vibe off this dude, he didn't know why.
"Come on, let's go to the lunch room," he gestured Emerald to follow.
"Yeah," Emerald followed.
Once in the lunch room they both sat down and stared for a minute, "Oh sorry, I'm the doctor."
"The Doctor?" Emerald thought that through for a minute, he knew that name from somewhere.
"Yes, and just the Doctor," Doctor said, making sure he knew that.
"Oh I know, you were the one who made big bang two right?" Emerald looked at him, to hopefully get a bit of info.
"What? How did you know that, no one knows that," Doctor questioned, then proceeded to pull out his sonic screwdriver and scan him.
"Actually," Emerald almost began, "I-"
"You are Emerald Spire, second oldest of the Spire family, Draconian lineage, and child of two worlds," Doctor put his screwdriver away and looked back at Emerald, "Good to meet another variant of my kind."
"What?" Emerald sat there, wondering what he meant.
"Ah yes you see dragons and timelords are-" Doctor was interrupted.
"Child of two worlds?" Emerald had wondered what if it had anything to do with his dreams.
"Oh that, you are the combination of this world, and another, ruled by equines," Doctor said as if he were talking to another companion.
"Horses," Emerald stared off into space.
"Indeed, they are quite the odd bunch, holding things without fingers, claiming to move celestial bodies, being cute and fluffy," Doctor listed off.
"Weird," Emerald rubbed the back of his neck and gave a nervous smile, his dream was real, now he had proof.
"You said it, cannot believe the things that went on there either," Doctor mumbled something after about never getting a break.
"What was the other thing about dragons and tim-" A crash caught everyone's attention, they rushed to see what had happened, when they got a view all they saw Moka laughing and Tsukune embedded in a pillar.
"That's a vampire for you, strong enough to put you through a building," Doctor shrugged it off and sat down again.
"Think he'll be alright?" Emerald sat down too.
"I have faith that this Tsukune kid," Doctor folded his arms, "After all, he is an excellent monster."
"You know what kind of monster he is? tell me," Emerald sat closer.
"He's a rare one, called cha-" Again a crash interrupted him, "Is this some kind of running joke?"
"Probably just those two again," Emerald leaned back and forgot that he had asked Doctor a question.
~Later at the dorm~
"And she turned into this true vampire form? Kicking him so hard he K.O.ed in on hit?" Emrald asked Tsukune, who was beat up, and told a tale of how he had yelled at her, and the orc, and the talking bat.
"That sums it up," Tsukune said, laying in his bed across from Emerald.
"Sounds like an awesome first day," Killua said, leaning over the side of the top bunk over Emeralds.
"Yeah, wonder what tomorrow's gonna be like," Gon wondered aloud as he got comfortable in the bunk above Tsukunes'.
"Goodnight gentlemen," Emerald turned off the light.
"Goodnight," Tsukune answered.
"G'night," Killua slurred.
"Night," Gon sleepily said
.
.
.
.
.
"Hope none of you snore," Tsukune spoke.

Chapter 2
Emerald was not having a great second day, first he woke up to the sight of two purple eyes watching Tsukune, second he was trying to track down the person but was having little luck since they were covering their tracks. While searching for clues he saw Tsukune and Moka, she was sucking his blood, again, and again Tsukune freaked out, but this time it was different, "Ah! Why do you suck my blood, am I a walking lunch to you?!"
"Oh no," Emerald facepalmed as Tsukune ran off, leaving a surprised Moka, "Better go get him."
Emerald walked in the direction that Tsukune ran off in, walking slowly as to make sure he was going the right way, which lead to the incinerator apparently. As he approached he noticed Tsukune and the blue haired chick starting at each other, Tsukune pulled her in close and they started to laugh, 'Alrighty, better stay out of sight,' Emerald thought as he jumped into the tree nearby, close enough to hear Tsukune.
"Oh of course i'll be your friend!" Tsukune smiled and laughed as they hugged, but something seemed off, Emerald was sure.
"No, Tsukune?" Moka suddenly said from behind them, catching Emeralds attention.
"Oh shiya," Emerald whispered, he watched as Tsukune and blue chick walked away, leaving Moka to turn and run off, "This just got complicated."
~~
While walking the halls with his best friend Killua, Gon hummed an old tune he had heard long before he could really remember, Killua stopped him, Gon looked up and saw Moka and a blue haired girl.
"My name is Kurumu Kurono," the girl said, "And I have come to declare war on you!"
"War?" Moka hardly understood.
"Yeah, can't let you get in the way of my plan," Kurumu said.
"Plan?" poor Moka asked.
"Yes, to make every male student here at Yokai my slave!" Kurumu said without hesitation.
"Ah!" Moka then understood.
"Every male here should be a slave to my beauty," Kurumu said dramatically, "But they are busy slaving over you! I cannot have this!"
"Sounds like a heated argument," Gon said.
"Sounds like a plan to me," Killua said, "After all, I wouldn't mind being her slave when she has those dumplings."
"Really Killua," Gon gave him a deadpan stare.
"You know it," Killua smiled.
"Hey Moka!" Tsukune suddenly cut in, running past them, then got jumped on by Kurumu, "AH!"
"Oh Tsukune, thank you for yesterday," Kurumu was already pulling him close.
"I need to apologize to Moka," Tsukune reached for her.
"Apologize!" Moka fumed.
"She's pissed," Gon said.
"Hurry and get her off you, she's tricking you," Moka said.
"What?" Tsukune looked down at Kurumu who was feigning dizziness.
'Charm,' Kurumu silently thought as she put him under her spell.
"Tsukune get away from her, she's dangerous and she will eat you!" Moka begged.
"But aren't you the one sucking my bood?" Hypno Tsukune asked, "You're the dangerous one.
"Bu...uaaaaeeehhh!" Moka had cried as she ran off.
"Geez, That was a bit harsh," Gon said.
"Gon, i'll see you after lunch," Killua said and walked off after Tsukune, clearly pissed.
"Ok?" Gon was unsure of what to do, "Not good."
~~
"I did this for you!" Kurumu summoned her clawes and wings, "Some of it was embarrassing!"
"Whaaa!!" Tsukune yelled.
"But her! She's still in my way!" Kurumu pulled back to strike, "Now I'm going to get rid of you and her!"
"So that was it," A voice from the door stopped her, she looked over to see Killua, "Manipulating the bodies of men huh, nice trick Succubus."
"Who are you!" Kurumu turned her fury to him.
"Killua, cousin of Moka," He said nonchalantly.
"Then I guess I will get rid of you too!" She charged him, only to be pushed out the window.
"Get away from them!" Moka appeared next to Killua.
"Moka!" Tsukune gasped as she appeared.
"Run, Run while there is still time!" Moka said.
"What? Moka wh-" Tsukune hear Kurumu suddenly
"So that is vampire strength? impressive," Kurumu was flying just outside the window, "Come here and I will kill you all!"
"Ahh!" Tsukune was being pulled by her tail, Moka jumped on to save him.
"Grr," Kurumu couldn't hold them both and dropped them.
"Pull off my rosary Tsukune," Moka held a grim face.
"What! she's going to get us!" Tsukune was confused and freaking out.
"Pull it off," Moka said again.
Tsukune went and pulled it, but it wouldn't come off, "Uh it's stuck."
"Then I will protect you," Moka pulled Tsukune in close and prepared for the attack, "Cause he is precious to me, not his blood, he makes me feel happy!"
"Don't make me laugh," Kurumu closed in.
"Then I will not burden you Moka!" Tsukune pulled away with the rosary.
An explosion of light flooded out as Mokas' true form came out, blinding Kurumu and cathing Emeralds eye.
"Don't get in my way," Kurumu yelled at Moka, "In order to keep our small species going I must find my destined one, only one out of hundreds of men."
"You need to know your place," Moka disappeared as Kurumu swiped, appearing behind her and swinging her to the ground by her tail, "Egotistical girl."
"I..uhh.. Wai.." Kurumu was on the ground attempting to beg forgiveness.
"Now to make sure you never do this again," Moka started to walk toward her, "I will rip off your tail and wings."
"No... no please," Kurumu was nearly crying as she feared for her life.
Tsukune then stepped out in front of Kurumu and raised his arm as to shield her.
"Move Tsukune, she must pay for trying to kill you," Moka did not stop, "You will move Tsukune, or I wil-"
"Shut up," Tsukune held a grim expression, "She had no evil intention in mind, I really can't see her being evil at heart," Tsukune lightened up a bit, "Just like you are just another Moka we can depend on."
"Don't misunderstand," Moka took her rosary, "I don't want your blood to be taken from me, that is all."
"Bold move telling a vampire no," Killua said from in a nearby tree.
"Indeed, but did you see it?" Emerald asked.
"See what?" Killua didn't see anything.
"Tsukune, I know what monster he is now," Emerald smiled.
"Oh?" Killua looked over to him.
~~
"It spoke to you?" Tsukune was surprised, the rosary had spoken.
"Yeah and the voice saved us," Moka looked sad for a minute, "Hey, even if it breaks, will you still like me?"
"Of course, even if you two think and act different, I will still like you," Tsukune smiled.
"Good morning!" A familiar voice called, making them both jump
"Kurumu!" They both screamed.
"Oh Tsukune, I baked you some cookies!" Kurumu held up a small plate of cookies.
"Uh thanks," Tsukune half questioned.
"My search for my destined one is over, I have decided it's you Tsukune!" Kurumu said, "You risked your life for me and now I totally love you!"
"Well that escalated quickly," the passing figure in the grey hood and coat said.

Chapter 4
All the freshman stood in front of the exam score board, many failed, others succeeded and some were right in the middle, like Tsukune who ranked 128th, a little better than most, but not considered excellent, "I'm alright with it."
"Speak for yourself," Gon sighed, he came 150th.
"I'm cool with mine," Killua smirked, he was 43rd.
"I guess I could have put a little more effort in mine," Doctor said as he scanned the board, he was in 3rd.
"What! more effort!?" Gon screamed, Killua let his jaw drop, and Tsukune laughed.
"Rather well done for lack of effort," Emerald walked up and complimented Doctor, Emerald himself held 1st.
"You got First!" Gon nearly fainted.
"Quite an achievement," Killua complimented.
"Not really worried about my score," Emerald rubbed the back of his neck and gave a shy smile, in the corner of his eye he spotted the 5th score, Twilight Sparkle, she was quite knowledgeable.
"Hey Tsukune!" Moka ran up to him, she had gotten 13th.
"Oh hi Moka," Tsukune answered in a neutral voice, he was unsure if he was ready to talk to her.
"You did pretty well for the first test here," Moka smiled at him.
"Um thanks, you did even better," Tsukune said, the others noticed his emotionless voice.
"Are you alright?" Gon asked.
"Yeah you seem, sad," Killua asked.
"Tsukune?" was all Moka could say.
Tsukune was unsure how to answer, he really didn't want to tell them really why he was being so emotionless, but he couldn't lie to them, and as if his silent prayer was heard a thud resonated through him from behind, "Tsukune, I will need your help."
Turning around he was surprised to see the tall figure of Hunter, "Sure, how can I help?"
"Grab on," Hunter held his left arm out.
"Okay?" Tsukune grabbed on, but before he could ask why they were both launched high up into the air, scaring Tsukune witless.
"Here we are," Hunter said bringing Tsukune back to his wits, he looked around, they were in what looked like the cockpit of a plane , "Welcome to my home."
"Kinda small?" Tsukune asked.
"This is just a cockpit, the rest of it is behind those doors," Hunter gestured to a double door.
"Oh, So is this some kinda monster plane or something?" Tsukune asked.
"No, this is my home," Hunter said as he sat in the pilot chair.
"You live on a plane?" Tsukune was curious.
"Ship, this is a void ship," Hunter said as he mess with some gadgets.
"Void?" Tsukune didn't understand.
"Yes now hush, we have a mission," Hunter said.
"Oh, I thought you had just said that to get me out of there," Tsukune said as he took a seat as well.
"For that reason too," Hunter said as he brought up some odd holograph thing, a portal it looked like.
"What's this?" Tsukune asked.
"Our mission," Hunter said darkly, "Something in this universe was not meant to be here."
~~
"Well that happened," Killua said as he stared up to the sky, waiting to see it they would fall back down.
"Yeah," Gon stared too.
"Have to expect that, especially counting him," Doctor shrugged.
"Huh?" Emerald didn't know what he meant.
"HEY WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO ME!" A voice yelled, they turned to see a larger guy running at a little girl, they couldn't have that.
"STOP!" Moka yelled as she jumped between them stopping the guy and making everyone around gasp, "I have no part in this but I won't let you do this to her!"
"Look, Moka stopped them from bullying her," a student called out.
"No way!" another yelled.
"You had better remember this Yukari," The guy said, walking away with his friends, "Let's go guys."
"Oh thank you Moka!" Yukari Sendou said with glee, she held 2nd on the board.
"This could turn out bad," Emerald said, he then turned and spotted Twilight, perfect, he wanted to talk to her.
~~
"Getting anything?" Hunter asked Tsukune as they walked down the school hall.
"A small reading, meaning our initial assumption was right, it is in the school," Tsukune fiddled with the device to keep the signal.
"Good, that will make business a little easier," Hunter mumbled.
"Hey isn't that guardian?" one student pointed at them.
"Yeah, what's Tsukune doing with him though," another asked.
"Guardian?" Tsukune wondered aloud.
"A title I was given," Hunter check the device, " I work to keep dangerous threats at bay."
"Like this?" Tsukune held the device up.
"Maybe, this could just be the work of another realbound," Hunter said.
"I see," Tsukune went back to tuning the device, "You think it could be like you?"
"No, I would know," Hunter and Tsukune kept walking.
"They are even bigger than they look!" A young voice said, catching both guys attention.
"Wha-wh-wha," Tsukune stuttered out, Moka was walking down the hall, Yukari groping her the entire way, "What are you two doing?!"
"I know you, Tsukune Aono, average grade, average athletic ability, nothing special at all," Yukari lifted her head as if she were better than him, "And I don't want my perfect Moka touched by the dirt of someone like you, begone!"
"Alright then,have fun," Tsukune was far too focused on his mission to really care, she could have her.
"Then take this!" Yukari summoned a washtub and smashed Tsukune over the head, "Ha take that! Wait what did you say?"
"Tsukune!" Moka saw him get hit, she was worried.
"Hah! A witch's magic is the best!" Yukari made a pose.
"Hey Hunter! The signal points this way!" Tsukune called to him as he walked off, leaving two stunned girls.
~~
"Yukari Sendou huh?" Kurumu and Tsukune were talking in the club meeting room, "Sounds like she really loves Moka."
"Yeah, but it really doesn't bother me much," Tsukune shrugged, Kurumu was the only one who believed him at the time of the last chapter.
"Wow dude, that's unexpected," Gon said.
"Hey where's Killua?" Tsukune asked.
"He had some family things to clear up," Gon said as he took a bite of lunch.
"Sounds like a pain," Tsukune went for a bite when he felt his body seize up, something was controlling him, without warning he groped Kurumu, who gasped, "Help! Somethings controlling my body!"
"WHAT!" Moka gasped from the door, she had just walked in.
"Dude really?" Gon had a skeptical look, then Tsukune flipped up Kurumu's skirt.
"NOOOOOO!" Kurumu and Moka screamed, smacking Tsukune down.
"HAHAHA!" Yukari cracked up in the window.
"There!" Gon grabbed her quick.
"Hey!" Yukari squirmed free and hid behind Moka, making faces.
"Hey! Yukari!" Tsukune was ready to give her a piece of his mind, but Moka stopped him.
"Leave her alone Tsukune! You don't know her or how she feels!" Moka yelled at Tsukune, who stopped and drooped his head, slap marks still showing.
"Alright, I see, guess i'll leave then," Tsukune said, then grabbed his device to resume the search.
"Wait," Kurumu ran after him.
Moka and Gon then turned to Yukari, "Oh boy."
~~
"So, you're looking for this person, maybe I can help," Emerald said, he was with the six new girls.
"You would do that?" Twilight asked.
"Of course," Emerald said, "What kind of gentleman would I be if I didn't help?"
"That's awfully kind of you sir," the girl from before said.
"Well I think it's very suspicious," The rainbow haired girl with pink eyes and wings said.
"You think everything a stranger does to help is suspicious," The girl with golden hair and green eyes said.
"I think it's nice," The girl with pink hair and turquoise eyes quietly said, flapping her wings.
"Well I already think he's my friend," The girl with pink hair and blue eyes smiled.
"Thank you miss, um," Emerald didn't know their names.
"Oh yes," Twilight smiled shyly, "The girl with purple hair is Rarity, the rainbow haired one is Rainbow Dash, the with the stetson is Applejack, the shy one is Fluttershy, and the hyper one is-"
"I'm Pinkie! Nice to meet you friend, what's your name?" She said in one breath.
"My apologies, my name is Emerald Spire," He bowed, Twilight gasped, "Huh?"
"What is it Darling?" Rarity asked.
"You're a monster right?" Twilight asked.
"Of course," Emerald answered.
"What kind?" Twilight asked
"A dragon, why?" Emerald was confused.
"Oh my," Twilight gasped, she then turned and ran off.
"What," Emerald was very confused.
"We should probably go get her," Rainbow flew after Twilight.
"Yeah, thanks for volunteerin to help, see ya later," Applejack turned with the rest and ran off.
Emerald stood there a minute before coming to with what just happened, "Was it something I said?"
~~
In a deep part of the haunted forest three lizard men had cornered Yukari and Moka, threatening to kill them, "What do you think you're doing little brat!?"
"Watch out!" Moka tackled Yukari out of the way, taking the slash for Yukari.
"What's going on here!?" Tsukune pulled all their attention to him, letting Kurumu swoop in and take Moka and Yukari away to a safe spot.
"What? They got away! We'll kill you for that!" The three growled at Tsukune, the front one taking a swipe as Tsukune took a step back, leaving the claw to only slash the front of his throat.
"TSUKUNE!" All three girls yelled, Kurumu turned and flew at them to attack, but stopped when a super sonic projectile from above landed on the lead lizardman, nearly breaking him into pieces.
"I'm going to have to ask you three gentlemen to back away from my student," the tall and menacing person said as he stepped off the lizard landing pad.
"What the hell?" one of the others said.
"Run," the person simply said.
"N-never!" they said defiantly.
"You were given a chance," the person then sped faster than anything could, throwing one through all the trees until he hit the mountain, and knocking the other into the lake hard enough to splash the entire surrounding land.
"Enough please," Tsukune wheezed out, collapsing.
"Tsukune!" Moka called to him, but the tall figure was already next to him, then they vanished, "No! Tsukune!
~The next day~
"She really cleaned up her act huh?" Kurumu asked as she and Moka walked to the club meeting room.
"Yeah she has certainly changed for the better," Moka smiled as they opened the door.
"Tsukune! I love you!" Yukari suddenly hugged Tsukune, making both girls jaws drop, then Moka noticed the bandages wrapped around his neck, some blood slightly visible through the wounded area.
"Um Yukari?" Tsukune whispered.
"And another was added to his harem this day," Killua and Gon laughed from behind the girls.
♘Rosario+vampire: Year of the Dragon
Chapter 5
Emerald sat on his bed, wondering if he had somehow offended Twilight, it puzzled him to no end, but most of all why she asked what kind of monster he was, that was out of nowhere.
"Hey, you alright Emerald," Tsukune whispered, his injury was not full healed yet.
"Hmm? Yeah, just can't figure women out," Emerald thought harder, but was interrupted when Tsukune grabbed his shoulder.
"Trust me, you don't want to," Tsukune whispered.
"Hehe," Emerald laughed, "Hey Tsukune, how long was it before you could get the bandages off?"
"Three more days," Tsukune whispered back.
"That Hunter guy is really a great medic," Emerald smiled.
"Could have been gentler," Tsukune whispered.
"Hahaha!" Emerald cracked up.
"Pssh," Tsukune huffed as he left.
~~
Emerald and Tsukune were walking toward the school when they saw the newspaper stand trashed, all the other members were there, they had sad faces.
"What happened?" Emerald asked, but they just stared at them, like they were idiots.
"The safety committee," Moka finally said.
"They trashed the place," Gon added.
"Told us there will be no more newspaper club," Killua said.
"Where were you!" Moka yelled at Tsukune, "We couldn't do anything!"
"I-" Tsukune tried whispering.
"No I don't care," Moka folded her arms and turned away.
"Take it easy," Killua said.
"He had no idea," Gon added again.
"Moka Akishia," someone called from the school gate, there stood the discipline commitee, led by Kuyou, "You are facing charges for assaulting a disciplinary committee member."
"What?" Tsukune whispered shocked.
"Oh don't worry Tsukune Aono, you will be coming too, along with Emerald Spire," Kuyou grew a wicked smile.
"For what charges?" Emerald asked.
"Suspicion of being human," Kuyou laughed.
"No leave them alone!" Moka yelled, the others were just in shock.
"Ts-Tsukune, tell me they're wrong," Kurumu stammered.
"They gotta be," Killua said.
"Yeah, no human can get into this school," Gon tried to reassure.
"Yes, do tell them what sort of monster you are," Kuyou sarcastically said, only to receive silence from
Tsukune, "You can't, cause you really are a human!"
"Let's go!" another member ordered them, making Tsukune, Emerald, and Moka march.
"No," Yukari cried.
~~
"Well here we are," Kuyou had brought the to an odd dark room, "Drop the human disguise and prove to me you are monsters."
"But," Emerald tried to speak, only to be kicked in the gut.
"I don't like hearing excuses," Kuyou grimaced, " Just transform and I can let you off the hook, that simple."
"Promise to let Moka go," Tsukne half Whispered.
"Pretty noble thing coming from a worthless human," Kuyou smiled, "But her life is already over," he then kicked Tsukune into a wall, hard.
"Stop it!" Moka jumped in front of Tsukune, only to have a hard punch knock her down.
"Showing compassion for a human huh? your death will be painful," Kuyou scrunched his nose in disgust.
"Enough," Emerald said as he stood up, he had had enough, all he wanted was to get rid of this annoyance and finish his business with Twilight and her friends to find out more about this pony world from the Doctor, to fix things between his friends.
"Stay down you pitiful human!" Kuyou went to kick him again, putting all the force he could into it, only to have it do nothing, Emerald then transformed into his humanoid dragon form, "My what a majestic monster, that should clear you."
"Those two come with me," Emerald snarled.
"I'm afraid not," Kuyou said as he then pointed to the exit, "Now get out."
"Then I guess we solve this the hard way," Emerald grinned as he delivered a crushing blow right to Kuyou's face, sending him flying through the wall and tumbling before hitting a rock with a solid crack.
"Yeah Emerald!" Gon said as he, Killua, Kurumu, Gin, and Yukari walked through the door.
"Tsukune are you ok?" Moka asked, she noticed that his bandage had fallen off.
"I feel great," Tsukune said, he stood up, nothing but a scar was left on his neck, and his shattered bones from the kick, he was in great shape.
"But how?" Moka whispered, nobody else heard.
"Glad to see you alright," Gin gave him a thumbs up.
"Thanks Gin," Tsukune smiled, then heard the voice of Kuyou.
"I will burn you all to ash!" Kuyou yelled, he was in his monster form, and before anyone knew it a fire spear struck Tsukune right through the heart, making him fall over dead.
"Tsukune!" Killua yelled.
"No, No,NOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Moka suddenly exploded in a bright light, her rosary still attached, but her true form out, "You will pay for what you have done!"
"A vampire? Mere child to me! I am a god!" Kuyou yelled as they both charged each other, niether saw Emerald fly right into the air beyond sight.
"Know your place!" Moka delivered a high kick, sending Kuyou, who changed to his second form, into the air, but did little damage.
"Is that all?" Kuyou mocked as he began to descend, but before he touched down Emerald sped right into his back at the speed of a comet, crashing down with enough force to shatter the iceberg that sunk the Titanic easily, oh and knock Kuyou right into oblivion.
"Think before you engage a Spire," Emerald roared at Kuyou, then transformed back into his human form, leaving them all stunned.
"That was pretty awesome," Tsukune said from the back of the group, startling everyone.
"You were dead," Killua said.
"We saw you go up in flames," Gon added.
"That was him," Tsukune pointed to a dead body, which was another discipline committee member, dead.
"Oh, that makes sense," Gin srugged.
"I'm glad you're alright," the outer Moka was back, and gave him a hug.
"Thanks, it feels good to be back," Tsukune said as he was embraced in a group hug.
~~
"Thank you Discord," Tsukune said as he waved at the mismatched character, they had first talked when Tsukune suffered the fatal kick of Kuyou.
"Anytime Calamity," Discord waved back.
"Hey, you never told me what your world is like," Tsukune/Calamity said.
"Ah yes, it is quite interesting, ruled by Celestia and Luna, movers of the moon and sun, they sure are stiff though, they need to loosen up, ruling over a kingdom of harmony and peace, but I guess that's what happens when you lack meat," Discord said.
"Sounds like no fun, we sure get a lot of that around my world," Tsukune smiled.
"Yes, and I do envy you there Calamity, to live among such chaos day to day, how glorious," Discord held a truly happy smile.
"Yeah, loads of fun," Tsukune said rubbing his neck.
"Ah yes I noticed the scar on your throat, a bad date?" Discord asked.
"You could say that," Tsukune said, giving little to imagination.
"Oops, sounds like sunbutt called me, I must dash, but we should talk again over tea and moon bombs, tata Calamity," Discord faded away.
Tsukune suddenly woke, another bright day ahead, another chaos filled, fighting packed, and drama coated day, "Oh joy."
♘Rosario+vampire: Year of the Dragon
Chapter 6: Cold friendship
Chapter 6
A few days passed with few crazy happenings, and nobody had figured out what type of monster Tsukune was, not to mention that the group patched up arguments with each other, it felt good to have friends, not that one girl knew, but she would soon.
"I think that's the last student," Kurumu said, putting some papers down.
"That was awesome, we handed out a lot of papers," Killua stretched.
"Got to love the newspaper club," Gon said as he threw a box to the side.
"Mhm!" Moka nodded.
"You guys get along very well," everyone turned to see a girl with light purple hair and frost blue eyes walking toward them, she was beautifully pale, "I just don't understand that stuff."
Tsukune stood there as she walked up and leaned toward him, "Wha? Can I help you?"
"So you're Tsukune," She smiled and blushed, "you're even cuter than I expected."
"Huh?" Tsukune was confused.
"I'll take a copy," She said as she grabbed a paper and walked away.
"Tsukune who was that?" Moka questioned him.
"Uhh, I don't know her," Tsukune tried.
"Wonder who she even is," Kurumu said.
~in class~
The teacher was talking about how they would elect a class representative and secretary, but Tsukune and Emerald had tuned them out, until the girl from the morning stood up, "I think Tsukune would make a great class rep," she said in her usual monotone voice, getting a bunch of murmurs of agreement from the class.
"Yeah and Emerald should be the class secretary," another student spoke up.
"Wait," Tsukune said.
"What?" Emerald finished.
"Me?" Tsukune gestured to himself, they cheered as the answer.
"You sure?" Emerald asked, and got a loud affirmative.
"Oh man," Tsukune sat back down.
~after class~
"Congratulations Tsukune!" Moka cheered.
"You too?" Tsukune sighed.
"Nice Tsukune, knew you could," Gon patted his back.
"Quite the ambitious streak you have going," Killua smiled as he walked past.
"Guess we are going to be working together even more," Emerald grabbed Tsukunes shoulder, "Best of luck."
Tsukune sighed and started the walk to the next class when that girl walked up to him, "Good job Tsukune," she smiled at him.
"You again," Tsukune didn't want to sound rude, " um thanks?"
"Mizore Shirayuki," She smiled and pulled out the newspaper, "As always you are my favorite when I read your stories."
"Um thanks," Tsukune said before she grabbed his arm affectionately and pulled him with her down the hall, he lightly struggled, "Easy there, don't pull so hard."
"Actually I couldn't attend most of the first semester, but I always loved when miss Nekenome brought me a newspaper you guys wrote," Mizore said, Tsukune at this point stopped struggling and walked with her, " I even have a notebook of the articles you wrote."
"That's very kind," Tsukune said as she handed him the notebook, inside were indeed his articles, but she had written lots of things all over it, "These are your thoughts?"
"Yup, you always write from the point of view of the weak and shy, I like it," Mizore said.
"Uh, well," Tsukune stammered.
"I can tell you are a loner, that you want company," Mizore got more and more eerie, "You think so similar to me, I can tell."
~~
"Did you see that! It skipped nine times!" Mizore and Tsukune had gone down to the lake, they had been hanging out for about an hour.
"Uh yeah, hey I have a party I need to get to here soon," Tsukune cringed when she looked down, "You want to come?"
"You just want to be with her, with Moka," Mizore sounded angry.
"What? not just her," Tsukune said, making it worse.
"I see, then I will make you mine, as every snow women does," Mizore let out a cold burst freezing the lake solid, "I wouldn't worry about Moka, She may be dead already."
"What!?" Tsukune said, he was slowly being frozen, he could not move his legs.
"You are the one Tsukune," Mizore leaned on the half frozen Tsukune, "Will you be mine?"
"Pl-please," Tsukune tried, but the ice was making it up his face, making him feel numb.
"Hey you!" Kurumu and Moka were flying to save Tsukune, they must have known he was not at the party.
"Stay out of my way!" Mizore then raised her arms, raising ice, freezing most of Moka, and the arms of Kurumu's arms, making her crash and skid across the ice, "Tsu-Tsukune."
"No! Leave them alone!" Tsukune said, breaking free of the ice, then using his frozen hand smashed it into the lake, cracking the surface, "Please stop this."
"Tsukune," Mizore was shocked, she almost shed a tear, before plummeting into the lake with everyone else.
After everyone had managed to get out they noticed Mizore was gone, she had run when she had the chance.
"Are you alright?" Tsukune asked as he helped Moka up, she and Kurumu were shivering.
"Yeah I think," Moka said, Kurumu caughed up some water.
~~
"Find her?" Moka questioned, they had been told by miss Nekonome to find her, because if she were absent anymore, she would be in trouble.
"Yes, I trust you and Mr. Aono can find her," the teacher smiled.
Tsukune and Moka both shivered involuntarily at the thought of another encounter with her, "Yes miss," they both said.
"Hey Neko, you have a moment to talk about miss Shirayuki?" The gym teacher walked up, Kotsubo Okuto, "The girl is responsible for the near death of two of my soccer team students, froze them."
"What," They all gasped.
"We need to hurry and find her," Moka said.
"If you don't she may be expelled from the school," Kotrubo said as he gestured Nekonome to follow him.
"Guess we have no choice," Tsukune said.
"Let's split up and look for her," Moka said.
"Alright," Tsukune said.
~~
"So this is her room?" Tsukune went to see if she was in her room, which he doubted, but knocked.
"Yes?" He heard her say from behind the door, 'She is here?!' , Tsukune thought surprised.
"Mizore it's me!" Tsukune said, "I came to help you!"
It was silent for a moment as Tsukune listened, but before he could react the door exploded outward as ice blew it up, sending him flying.
"Don't, you will not play with my heart again," Mizore threatened, Tsukune hit the ground with a loud thud.
"Please think about this," Tsukune said, pulling an icicle out of his left shoulder before the smoke settled, only leaving a torn shirt.
"No, I won't let you," Mizore summoned her icicle hands.
"What about the soccer students?" Tsukune asked, "Why did you attack them, then leave them to die?"
"What? I never attacked anyone," Mizore was confused.
"Huh?" Tsukune was confused.
"I lost my tmper and froze them, but I unfroze them right after," Mizore put her icicle hands away.
Tsukune had heard it froma teacher, he knew she was wrong right?
"To think you would accuse me of something so aweful," Mizore said coldly, "I hate you forever!"
"Uh," Tsukune couldn't think right, she said one thing, a teacher said another, one had to be wrong, but he had to make sure she was alright, he ran in the direction she went, to apologize.
While walking he thought about what he would say, but that was cut short when he heard a shout, reacting, he ran to the source and tried to see what it was. He then saw Mizore being dragged down off a cliff, jumping he barely caught her hand, "Mizore! Hold on!"
"Tsukune?" Mizore cried.
"Hold on!" Tsukune said, he noticed a Kraken monster attached to her foot.
"Don't get in my way!" It said as it grabbed Tsukune's neck and squeezed.
"Ahhh!" Tsukune almost fell off the edge too, but was caught by Emerald, who pulled him back up a bit, nobody except Tsukune realized that his neck had been crushed, snapping his spine, he coughed up a bit of blood.
"That was close," Emerald sighed as he began to pull them up, bringing in the Kraken for a massive final punch, sending the Kraken into a bunch of trees, instant K.O.
Tsukune sat up and cracked his neck, "That feels better."
"Yeah, heck of a day you been having," Emerald patted him on the back, but when they went to see if Mizore was alright they saw she had left.
~The next day~
"Heck of a day you had," Gon said.
"Oh yeah," Tsukune said.
"And she is over there," Kurumu pointed to a nearby tree, Mizore then walked up, her hair shorter.
"Thank you Tsukune, I will never forget this," Mizore said, "My love," she then kissed Tsukune.
"Whoa," Emerald leaned back.
"Hey that kiss was for me!" Moka yelled.
"Guess not," Yukari laughed.
"So that's Mizore," Killua said, secretly having a crush on her, "She's cool."

Chapter 7: Where did they go?
Chapter 7
What did it mean, she had found him, but it wasn't him, she knew this was someone else, but it didn't matter, she had to tell the princess, if anypony could assure her what really was, it was her. Twilight kept quiet as she and her friends went to her room, which was up on a high floor, all of her friends were chatting, none of them noticed her silence, they just kept going, hopefully the princess was awake about now.
"So then, why did you run off on poor Emerald?" Rarity asked, all the other girls turned to Twilight.
"Well, I have to tell you," Twilight said, Emeralds name bringing up two faces in her mind, "But in my room."
"Alright, that's cool," Rainbow accepted the answer, she personally thought that Emerald was a fit guy, good muscle tone.
"Ah find it suspicious the way he talks, he's got secrets," Applejack said, she never liked secrets, she was an open and honest gal.
"He looks like a fun guy!" Pinkie bounced by them, then she giggled, "hehe, fungi."
"Well I think his dashing green hair is perfect with his bright gree-" Rarity suddenly gasped, realization hit her like a train.
"You know too?" Twilight asked.
"How could I miss it!?" Rarity said.
"What?" Applejack asked, they were approaching Twilight's room.
"What is it?" Rainbow and Fluttershy asked.
"It would be better if we discuss this in private," Rarity said, they stepped into Twilight's room, all waiting patiently.
"Well?" Rainbow said.
"Emerald Spire, is actually-"
An explosion rocked the building.
~~~
"Sweet salted mudcrab's butt, what was that?!" A student yelled.
"How am I supposed to know?" another yelled back at him, but before she could continue they noticed a large cloud of dust rising from the dead forest.
"What? What happened?" Twilight walked out of the building, her friends running up behind her.
"Again, how am I supposed to know?!" the second student yelled.
"Think it's another monster fight?" Rainbow asked.
"No," Twilight responded.
"What? why do ya think that?" Applejack asked her, fights were common among students, and they tended to get out of hand.
"I don't know, it just feels different," Twilight said.
"What do you mean, seems the same to me," the first student said.
"It just feels, empty," Twilight took a step forward, zoning out.
"Oh my!" Fluttershy peeped, scaring the life out of them all.
"What is it?" Rainbow asked, getting a point into the air as an answer.
Above them was what looked like a four armed metal lizard, with metal wings, it was staring at the smoke rising from the dead forest, then began to laugh. The laugh made them all feel small, it had a ring that made them shrink in fear, but they feared if they did they would be spotted by it.
"Helluva punch, almost made me flinch," said a figure as she walked out of the forest, she had blond hair and grey catlike eyes, the metal lizard growled.
"Strong words from a weak creature," the metal lizard growled out, "Guess I will have to take this more seriously."
"Oh give it up, you couldn't beat my father, you can't beat me," She said taking a fighting stance, two swords at the ready, "Well Xeima? Feeling lucky?"
"Never dirty my name with your words again!" He roared as he charged, Twilight would have helped, but the two were fighting at a level that made Princess Celestia look like a novice, they were moving faster than she could register and attacking with enough power to obliterate anything within it's range.
"How?" Twilight was dumbstruck, they moved with such grace, but hit with such force as to convey the deadly intent.
"As are the powers of Void," the girl said, parrying a blow while delivering another, the girl was smiling.
"Don't look so smug," Xeima said, "After all, you won't be when I cut you in half!"
"Calm down," the girl said, then called to Twilight and her friends, "Oh by the way, the name's Miria Zentrus."
"Will you quit ignoring me!" Xeima said, knocking her blades out of the way and going for a stab, only to meet air, but was quickly rewarded with a decapitating blow through the neck.
"Now will you shut up?" Miria asked, she then turned and waited as the lizard put it's head back on.
"Yes ma'am," Xeima said, sitting and awaiting orders.
"Good," Miria said before turning to the girls, getting a yelp as they backed up a bit, " How about lunch?"
~Hours earlier~
Miria sat on the bus as she waited to reach the grounds of Yokai Academy, she had heard a rumor of a person with unmatched prowess in battle, she was honestly scared, hoping this was not the person she seeked, and if it was, she hoped for it to go as smoothly as possible, she hoped.
"Hey kid," The bus driver said, catching her attention, "You best watch your back at this place, nothing ever goes as planned."
"I'll keep that in mind," Miria said, his words did little for her mind.
"Good, cause we have arrived," The bus driver said opening the doors, "Right this way."
"Eerie," Miria mumbled as she walked off the bus, the scenery registering before her.
~
She sat in the base's mess hall as she was again being lectured by her father about the risk she took, at the time she saw no harm in it, all she did was sit and wait for the lecture to end, she wasn't even listening to him. She had her mind on other things, like her next mission, she wondered if it would be another fetch quest, to many of those, maybe an assassination, she loved them, or maybe it would be exploration, that could be fun.
"-So that means that you are off the team," Her father said, finally catching her attention, she was shocked, "That's right, your team voted you off, they don't want you on their team, I could not convince them otherwise."
"But," She squeaked out, she was still registering it, no more missions, " Th-they can't do that!!"
"Yet they did," He said, ignoring the ringing in his ears.
"They can't," She hung her head, she never imagined this would happen, to be thrown out of her team, "Then I guess, I will go solo."
"What?" he turned to her, "You really shouldn't-"
"No, I don't care, I WILL go solo," Miria folded her arms and walked away, that would be the last time she would see her father.
~
The forest was rather dark and intimidating, and held an odd sort of vibe, but she was far too focused on what she would say to him, she wondered if he would even accept her apology. The things she had seen during her solo work made her realize quickly how right her father had been, she went through hell during the time of her work, but she came out alive, and stronger. Her mind then wandered to the topic of her father, was he a teacher, was he a student, maybe he was something else? All of these questions, and more, flowed through her mind as she walked along, slowly getting closer to the school, but she didn't make it, a metal fist filled her vision, right before she hit the ground with tremendous force, causing her to wince in pain, great just what she needed.
♘Rosario+vampire: Year of the Dragon
Chapter 8: Just 'the Doctor'
Chapter 8
The Doctor stumbled down the corridor of his Tardis (Time and relative dimension in space - machine), he had just got done regenerating from his eleventh persona, this time he was much younger, no really he was about eighteen years old body wise, he had ginger hair (finally!), dark orange eyes, and was a bit shorter. He wasn't too fond of his teenage years, so this was an unwanted blast from the past, but it was his own fault for getting into trouble like he did, he needed to eat, he could feel it, but no amount of fish fingers and custard could satisfy. Some thing else, something bread, no pancake, yeah, with honey and, uhhhh, butter, nope that's not it, eggs perhaps? That sounded right, it sounded delicious, Doctor walked out of the Tardis, right into a English restaurant, it smelled delicious, the smell of cooking food, it made him lose focus, but now was not the time.
"Next please," a women at the counter called, she was smaller with orange hair and brown eyes, more memories.
"Ah that would be me, yes, may I perhaps get pancakes with honey and some eggs?" He asked, trying to hold in the hunger.
"Certainly, that would be eight sixty five," she said with a creepy smile, "Would you like a drink with that?"
"Perhaps just a decaf," Doctor said, coffee, been more than a while since he had some.
"Alright sir, we will call your number when it's ready," she handed a number to him, but it disturbed him, he had an unshakable feeling that this was wrong, though he didn't know why.
As he sat there he began to notice some of his surroundings, it was a nice little place, more than likely a popular spot, considering the number of people there were, but the people themselves, they seemed uneasy, as if something in the air was causing them fear, but then he heard, "They had another, was my neighbor David this time, he was taken to the hospital after he had passed out, they found it again, his organs became mechanical er something, he loved to eat here, just like the others."
"You would think they would shut this place down for all those patients," another person quietly said, "It's like this place is cursed or toxic or something."
There it was, another mystery that he couldn't ignore, great, he couldn't walk into a restaurant without stumbling into some weird mystery, "Well, better get investigating, after I eat."
"We have pancakes and honey with eggs here," A server called, the Doctor got up and walked over, it all looked delicious.
"Thank you for choosing Badwolf breakfast diner," The server smiled and walked back into the kitchen.
"This is," The Doctor stopped and looked around again, indeed it said Badwolf, "How."
"Something wrong there son?" a guy asked from the corner of the room.
"Oh nothing, just some trouble that may be coming my way soon," Doctor smiled and shrugged.
"Ah i see, that is always trouble for us old men, yeah?" the guy chuckled.
"For us old -," The Doctor stopped himself, it couldn't be, "You, but how?"
"You can't rid yourself of me that easily," the guy chuckled, "Good to see you Doctor."
"Not sure I can say the same, Master," Doctor said the name with as much politeness as he could muster.
~~~
All was calm inside the Tardis, the console whirred quietly as it ran numberless calculations on various things, then without warning the door's burst open as the Doctor and Master rushed in, they both were panting and worn out. They exchanged glances, then broke out laughing, both just stood there and laughed, the Doctor was the first to calm down, he took a seat, then the Master relaxed, he was injured, but that would change soon, neither said a thing for a good minute.
"Wow, never expected that," Master said, he puffed as he began to glow.
"Oh yeah, never imagined that something like this could go down," Doctor took a breath, "And right under our noses too."
"Well then, wonder what it's gonna be this time," Master said, he began to regenerate while the Doctor looked over confused.
"What do you mea-" Doctor was knocked back as energy shot out, a regeneration, in his Tardis.
The regeneration lasted almost fifteen seconds, shaking the room, once it died down there was a different person standing there, this person was much younger than the previous one, they were shorter, had black hair, and green eyes, "Whoo what a rush, seems I got a bit smaller, younger perhaps, about seventeen, maybe eighteen."
"Wow, looking good there eh Master," Doctor said, he got a nod, but then said, "Don't think this means you're off the hook for regenerating in my Tardis."
"What about it?" Master grumbled, but got his answer, the Tardis, who was quiet this whole time, spoke up finally.
"Are you boys quite done?" the console asked, but huffed when they looked at her, shocked, "What? You thought you were the only ones to change?"
"This is honestly a surprise," Doctor managed out, this is the first time any of this has happened.
"Well, get over it, we need to get out of here now," Tardis said as she prepped random coordinates.
"But we are in here, nothing can get in," Master said.
"Oh no, I was just scanned by an enemy A.I. and I know that those doors will do nothing against them," Tardis said, "Now hit the phase switch idiot!"
"Alright alright!" Doctor said, he jumped up and started turning switches, pushing buttons and pulling levers.
"No! Don't pull that one! Push the reflux, not the dampener!" Tardis said, getting a groan out of them.
"Jeez, you talk like his mother," Master said, getting another groan out of the Doctor.
"May as well be, you too! Now get over here and help!" Tardis yelled at him, making him rush to the console to do what she said.
"Where are going?" Doctor asked.
"Where else? Yokai Academy," Tardis said.
"Yokai, why there?" Master asked.
"Why not, you need cover, that is cover," Tardis said, then began to glow, "No! we need to get there, fast!"
"I'm trying, it's not easy getting past a full cover dimension shield," Doctor scowled but then smiled, "Got it!"
They suddenly crashed down, the Doctor was sent flying back right into the wall, and the Master flew back into the door, pushing it open and hitting the hard ground outside, both were hit hard enough to blackout.
~~~
Tsukune was walking to school alone today, it had been an odd past few days, but he had the feeling that it wasn't going to stop now, and he would be right, because off to the side was a ginger haired person, they seemed to be beat up pretty bad, but otherwise alright.
"Hey! Are you alright?" Tsukune rushed over to the person to see if he was alright, they coughed and opened their eyes.
"Bright! Oh hello Tsukune," they quietly mumbled.
"What? have we met?" Tsukune asked, this seemed odd.
"Oh right new face, sorry about that, I've heard about you before," he coughed again, this time more awkwardly, "my names Josh Smith."
"Oh, nice to meet you Josh," Tsukune helped him up, "Soo, what have you heard about me?"
"Something about you defeating a werewolf with one hit, impressive," Doct- I mean Josh said.
"What!!?" Tsukune was shocked, was that really what they were saying?
"Oh hey Tsukune!" Yukari called, she ran for him, only to be trampled by Kurumu.
"Tsukune!!" Kurumu yelled as she jumped on him, making him yelp.
"Hry! Can't breath!" Tsukune said muffled, suffocation,what a way to go.
"Hand's off my Tsukune," Mizore calmly said as she froze Kurumu solid.
"No! Tsukune is mine!" Moka yelled as she ran to Tsukune, to suck his blood.
"Gah!" Tsukune cringed.
"Real popular with the ladies huh, even a kiss in the neck, wow," Josh laughed.
"Oh that's no kiss my friend," Killua smiled as he walked up behind a frozen Kurumu.
"Oh?" Josh raised a brow.
"Yeah, she's sucking his blood," Gon said, appearing behind him.
"Gah!" Josh jumped.
"Lucky guy though," Emerald said as he walked in near Killua.
"Seem's like it," Josh smiled.
"So, who are you?" Moka asked, finishing her Tsukune sundae.
~Somewhere in a dark room~
The Master awoke, he found that he was not in the Tardis anymore, but chained down, the last thing he remembered was crashing, and hitting the ground, but it sure as heck didn't look anything like this. The room was made of a black wood, the entire place seemed like a shrine or temple of some sort, but darker and more menacing, the lights on the walls were purple and gave off an uneasy feeling, but the worst part was the statue across the room, it sat in the darker end of the room, in the black throne sat what looked like a depiction of a god, but which on he didn't know.
The statue seemed menacing, even more so than the room, until it moved, it was a person, "So you woke up? Good, I was getting tired of waiting, nice to meet you, you can call me Mako Yakumaru," a wide smile crept up the persons face.
The Master realized something, this was an opprotunity to let loose, to get the anger out, just what he needed, a face splitting smile was plastered to his face, finally.

Chapter 9
Things were looking good today for Tsukune, aside from the morning happenings, and the new student showed promise, he was a smart and very skilled at many things. To top it off, he got along really well with him, that in it's self was an achievement, but that didn't matter right now, he had to hear this.
"Name's Josh Smith, but you can all call me 'Doctor', everyone else does," Josh shrugged.
"Doctor, like The Doctor?" A student asked.
"Oh no, he was my older brother, was suspicious of this school, so he came here to check it out," Josh said, not entirely false.
"We aren't that bad," another student said.
"Discipline committee," Josh flatly said.
"Oh, good point," the student said, averting their gaze.
"Anyway, it's good to meet you all, hope we can get along," Josh smiled.
"I'm sure you will fit right in, here, your seat is back by Miss Kurono," Nekenome said with her ever smiling face.
Josh nodded as he walked back, the students he passed either smiled or gave him a wave, he liked being young now, when he reached his seat he noticed that Kurumu was glaring at him, but did nothing as he sat, "Don't think this means I will even consider liking you."
"Huh? Oh no, never dream of it, not looking to be liked anytime soon," Josh said, "Besides, you got it for that Tsukune guy right?"
"Yeah, why do you care?" Kurumu folded her arms.
"Just saying, if you really hate sitting next to me that much you can talk to the teacher about it," He said before turning toward the front to possibly catch part of the lesson.
~~~
"Man what a day," Josh said, he had met the class, again, and was apparently popular, already.
"Meh, it's been pretty mellow actually," Gon sighed, most days were exciting, this was dull.
"After the night I had before, this is a nice pace change," Josh said, it had been exhausting, and were was Master off at, that was another thing he needed to find out.
"Oh? Interesting night huh?" Killua had a grin on his face.
"Shut up would ya! It was not that kind of night!" Josh waved him off.
"Oh your face! HAHAHA!" Gon and Killua broke out laughing as Josh tried to hide his red face.
"Oh shut up you two," Josh pouted, folding his arms.
All three were having a great time, Gon and Killua finally met someone to talking to (Emerald wasn't much of a talker), and Doctor was enjoying youth, as he should have, but this all meant nothing when an explosion rocked them, they stumbled before catching their balance and running to see what had caused it.
By the time they got there, nothing was going on, whatever happened had ended, and nothing was left but a bit of blood on the ground.
"What happened here?" Josh said, he knelt down to examine the blood.
"Looks like a fight gone bad," Gon said, he surveyed the clearing and spotted the remaining smoke from the dead forest, "Over there."
"What could that be?" Killua walked toward it.
"Why do we have to investigate?" Gon sighed.
"Why not?" Josh replied, walking toward it too.
"Geez, fine," Gon said rubbing his neck, what a pain.
The walk to the smoke origin was mostly silent, aside from the occasional ambiance and random comment, the forest gave off a more menacing vibe than usual, but that was nothing to really worry about.
"Do you get the feeling that someone is watching us?" Gon asked.
"Oh yeah, more than likely hiding in a distant tree," Josh waved it off.
"Really? what makes you so sure?" Killua asked.
"It's the little hints that give them away," Josh paced on.
"You're pullin my leg," Killua said.
"No really, they most likely have something to do with the smoke in the forest," Josh said.
"I can see clearly now the whale has moved," Gon sang, "Now I can see all the other whales in my way."
Killua burst out laughing, "Really man?"
"What?" Josh chortled, the forest seemed to grow lighter as they laughed, but it grew darker again as they saw a crater come into view, energy seemed to leak out of the empty smoking ditch, an oppressive energy.
"What a mood killer," Killua said looking into the crater, then without warning Josh jumped into the crater and began to investigate.
"What are you doing man?" Gon asked, he kept a distance from the crater.
"Having a look, why?" Josh asked as he gave them an odd look, then realizing that they were a few feet away from the ditch.
"It's emanating energy, we would like to stay back," Killua said.
"Alright then, all the more for me," Josh sat down in the crater, he then began to focus, to call his power to front, being younger made him have to focus harder.
"What are you doing?" Gon took a step closer.
"Get back!" Josh suddenly yelled, Gon jumped back.
"What are you doing man!" Killua said.
"Collecting the energy," Josh calmed down.
"That's dangerous!" Gon said, if he knew anything, it was energy, "That kind of energy could kill you."
"Hardly, with the resilience I have this is hardly a danger," Josh was finishing up, "There, now that that is done, let's head back, I can track the energy signature."
"Nice, where is it?" Killua held a cool stance.
"The school," Josh said nonchalantly.
"What," Gon and Killua said in unison.
"Huh?" Josh looked at them for a moment, "Oh, ohhhhhhh......
"SHIIIIIIIIIII-"
~~~
"Never again," Tsukune said laying on a hall bench, after homeroom his day turned for the worst, Hunter pulled him in for a mission (again), which consisted tracking down a spirit on a roller coaster, which they had to ride five times, "Why did I agree to this?"
"Dunno?" Emerald said, unsure what he was talking about.
"Remind me stab Hunter next time I see him," Tsukune said, barely holding to awareness.
"Noted?" Emerald still didn't know what to say, "Do you need to rest or something?"
"Can't, having too much trouble getting relaxed," Tsukune said,
"Here, let me help," Emerald said, he whacked Tsukune in the head lightly (not), "Oops, too hard?"
~Tsukune's unconscious~
"Gah my head!" Tsukune sat up quickly, he was not anywhere he recognized, it looked like a castle room, the throne sat tall, the decorations depicted the sun and moon, it all looked like a movie set of something of the sort.
"Finally awake eh Calamity?" A voice rang, the throne was suddenly filled with a familiar mismatched character.
"Discord! Where am I?" Calamity (Tsukune in his dream state) asked.
"This is the throne room of Canterlot my friend," Discord said, snapping his fingers and summoning a chocolate shake with a Nilla wafer.
"Hehe horse puns," Calamity giggled, "It looks like a near perfect recreation of it."
"Recreation?" Discord tilted his head, but before he could explain, the doors to the throne room opened, in walked two tall figures, clearly female, as well as a few smaller gaurds.
"Discord! What art thou plotting, thou lowly serpent!" the smaller blue horse spoke.
"Me? plotting? Why I never!" Discord sarcastically gestured.
"What abomination have you made this time!" The larger white horse said, picking up Calamity with Telekinesis and chaining him, "What purpose do you serve beast."
"What? Who are you? What's with the hostile welcome?" Calamity asked, the chains tightened.
"Answer thou abomination!" The blue one said.
"Lulu, Tia, please drop my friend here, we are merely having a chat," Discord said.
"Lulu? Tia? These are the ones you told me about?" Calamity did a pathetic point to them, "They really are uptight."
"Cur! Thine words will be the last!" the blue one's horn lit, but the white one stopped her.
"Calm down Luna, I want to know why Discord would create such an ugly thing, and what power it possesses," the white one spread out his arms and legs, then scanned him, "Interesting anatomy, an omnivore, and it is an apex predator, this abomination is going too far Discord."
"Hey don't look at me, the bro who made human's is the one responsible," Discord shrugged helplessly, "And I would not try and tamper with it's soul Celestia, yes I can see that spell, the big boss in charge of that person would get mighty pissed if you did, and I would hate to anger a Creator."
"Art thou not a god thyself?" Luna asked, "Thou keep claiming to be a god of chaos."
"Indeed, but another god can equal, and sometimes surpass my power," Discord said, then pointed to Calamity, "Such as the person you are holding, that is the god of Calamity."
"Uh, new god," Calamity nervously laughed.
"Thou represent such a horrible thing?" Luna shook her head, "But I do not understand, what is the difference between a god and Creator?"
"Gods represent a certain attribute," Discord poofed into a lab coat and glasses, with a whiteboard, "And creators are the highest of beings, big difference really."
"Interesting, but why is he here?" Celestia gestured to Calamity.
"Good question," Discord smirked, "He is actually here so we can get to the meeting that was called by Chaos, in fact, Q should be here soon to pick us up."
"And here I am," another person walked around the throne, "Ready my friend?"
"Indeed, how about you Calamity?" Discord turned to the ever patient god.
"Yeah, not really into this whole uptight kingdom," Calamity said, he broke free with little effort of the restraints and walked over to the other two.
"Bye honey, don't wait up!" Discord blew a kiss to the sisters, then vanished in a flash with Q and Calamity.
Luna then boiled over, "HEATHENS!!!!!!"

Chapter 10: A different person
Chapter 10:
Things did not go according to plan, the Master knew this well, sure he had managed to take off one of this crazy chicks' arms, but that didn't seem to change much, she was all over the place, slashing here and there, but it didn't matter, there were still about eight hours of after regen time, and he could accurately calculate her movements.
"You're getting sloppy," Master taunted, tripping her as she made another pass, but she was quick to her feet.
"Doesn't matter now," she said eerily, on another pass she shot her extending finger into his neck, catching him by surprise, "So incredible, anger, wrath, discontent, all so pure and strong, what wonderful emotions."
"Then try some," The master had dealt with emotion parasites before, this would be easy, he flooded her with negative emotion so great that she passed out instantly, "Now, where is the exit to this place."
~~~
Tsukune woke up with a slight headache, the meeting went well (No I won't include or tell what happened yet), and not well, but that didn't matter right now, what mattered was, where was he?
"Jeez, my head is pounding," Tsukune hissed sitting up, the room looked like a dorm room, but not his.
"You finally awake huh?" A blond haired girl walked out from another room.
"Yeah, where am I though?" Tsukune asked, the girl chuckled.
"In my room," She said in a seductive voice, "you can call me Miria."
"Oh the girls dorm?" Tsukune wasn't phased.
"Not even a little surprised? you must get a lot of action," Miria said.
"Nah, just after all I've seen, this seems normal," Tsukune shrugged.
"Wow, you must have seen some stuff," she said, most guys would have lost it when they found out.
"Well I got something I need to do, see ya, and thanks," Tsukune jumped out the window.
"WAIT, WE'RE ON THe sixth.....floor," She looked out the window and saw him just strolling away, "Ok, bye."
Tsukune smiled, just the reaction he was expecting, this would be easy, now all he had to do was find the right place, hell was on it's way.
His stomach growled, ok so lunch first, he could do that, the bell at the school went off, perfect, lunch time.
"And then he said he didn't know," a girl said, the first conversation Tsukune heard, others then sprung up as he passed more students, each would give a varying look, anger, curiosity, disgust, all there was, but he didn't know why.
"There he is!" A familiar voice called, he turned and saw the girls, Kurumu, Mizore, Moka, and Yukari, none looked happy to see him.
"So you thought you could get away with peeping!" Kurumu yelled, "And now you rape a girl?!"
"Huh?" Tsukune was confused, "What?"
"Don't try to act innocent," Moka said, she looked pissed.
"When did?" Tsukune stopped himself, this was the peeping tom event, again?
"We thought you were a good guy," Yukari growled out.
"Now just admit it," Kurumu pointed at him, "Say it!"
"No, I didn't, really, I don't even know what's..." Tsukune had his lower half frozen, no escape now.
"Make all the excuses," Kurumu extended her claws above him, "IN HELL!!!!"
Tsukune took it, he was cut up in seconds, he wanted to be sure, and now he knew, "So you really meant to kill me, hmm."
"Wha!" Everyone was dumbstruck, he was healing at an impossible rate, he wasn't dead.
"Now i'm sure, thank you for confirming it," Tsukune broke free from what was left of the ice prison, "Now I need to find out how to wake."
"You should be dead!" Yukari said, "Why did you not die Tsukune!"
"Funny thing, my real name is Calamity," He said, the others gasped.
"What did you do to Tsukune!" Moka yelled, her rosary glowing.
"It's still me, but my name isn't really Tsukune," Calamity said, he held a stoic face.
"But how can you be!" Kurumu was still in shock.
"God of Calamity," He took a bow.
"You're..." Moka started.
"Busy, now then, bye!" Tsukune faded out like an old t.v. image.
~~~
Calamity stood in the middle of the forest, not his finest teleport, a rustle caught his attention, someone was very good at teleport tracking, and out walked Gin, and this time things would be very different.
"Tsukune my friend, heard about what happened," Gin flashed him a bright smile, "I could help you out man."
"Oh really," Calamity said, uninterested.
"Oh yeah, it'll change the way Moka and them look at you," Gin flashed that smile again, this time though a sickening crack resonated, blood dripped onto his wonderful smile.
Calamity had impaled Gin though the chest, with his bare hand, "Fuck you, rapist."
"Wha-a-why," Gin gurgled, he fell over.
"Don't worry, you won't die, but I can't say the same for your reputation," Calamity gave a sparkling smile, teleporting Gin to the nurses office.
Calamity sighed, even for what he stood for, this was too boring, he wanted more, something worth his time, he learned to embrace his attribute well.
"You, are you Tsukune Aono?" another familiar voice called, this time it was the discipline squad.
"That I am, how may I help you?" Calamity held a smile.
"You were accused of being a human, but that little display changed my mind," the girl up front said, "so instead I say this, be more careful in the future, you may regret your actions."
"You issuing a threat?" Calamity took a dangerous tone.
"Of course not," she smiled, "Just a warning."
"May as well take your own advice," Calamity smirked as he walked off.
Calamity kept walking, he was thinking of anyway he could get back, anyway he could wake up, but nothing seemed to stick out.
~~~
"You mean, you were the one?" Kurumu gasped, Gin was the real culprit, and she hated him, she hated herself, for not believing Tsukune, or Calamity as it seemed.
"That's what I'm telling you," Gin weakly whispered.
"Then we," Moka started.
"Hurt Tsukune," Yukari said.
"When we should have hurt you," Mizore finished.
"Uh yeah?" Gin shrank.
"What have we done," Moka whispered.
Tsukune unknowingly walked past the nurses office, he had an idea to get back, now he had to go find the place he fell asleep, he didn't notice the girls watching him walk away.
"And here it is," Tsukune sat down, his calamity calmed down, "Better get asleep."
"Tsukune!" An unwanted voice called, the girls were running toward him, but before they passed five feet a shield flared as they made impact.
"You again," Tsukune sighed.
"Ow, why?" Kurumu got up and dusted herself off, the others looked just as sad.
"I WAS gonna take a nice nap and do this the easy way, but it looks like I will be doing this the hard way,hopefully I get this right" Tsukune said, after which he clapped twice, disappearing.
~~~
Waking up with a jerk Tsukune sat up quickly, a gasp came from behind him, turning he saw Moka and Emerald, both had concerned looks.
"Are you alright?" Moka asked.
"Yeah," Tsukune said.
"Hey, sorry for knocking you out," Emerald apologized.
"It's nothing," Tsukune said.
"Well I was worried," Moka huffed.
"Didn't mean to worry you," Tsukune said, this time, things felt right, he knew it.
♘Rosario+vampire: Year of the Dragon
Chapter 11
The new girl, Miria, was an odd one, she said that she had to transfer here, but Twilight thought otherwise, the girl was always looking around, like she was searching for something.
"Um, Twi?" A southern accented voice said, Twilight snapped out of thought.
"Huh? sorry, was thinking," Twilight said.
" Ah asked if you were sure that Emerald is really Spike," Applejack asked, they were walking down the hall from the lunch room.
"Positive, the odds of it not being him are under five percent," Twilight said, then had a more humble tone, "and I can feel it, he really is here."
"That's great, now we can get him back and throw him a 'Welcome back Spike party!" Pinkie bounced.
"Yeah, it would be great to have him with us again," Fluttershy spoke.
"But, he doesn't remember us," Twilight softly said.
"Don't fret darling, he will soon enough," Rarity comforted her.
"I hope so, I miss him," Twilight said, then she felt something, a magical pull, Princess Celestia was calling, "Well, here we go."
Twilight summoned a portal window, on the other side stood the princess and her sister, Princess Celestia had a calm smile, while Princess Luna had a displeased look.
"Young Twilight we would have words with you," Luna said, but her sister placed a hoof on her shoulder.
"As she said, we do need to talk, but don't worry too much," Celestia smiled, calming the group.
"Alright princess," Twilight said, awaiting the news.
"We encountered an unexpected..... entity," Celestia right out said.
"Entity?" Twilight asked.
"Yes, Discord called him Calamity, said he was a god," Luna spoke suddenly.
"A god, of Calamity?" Twilight and the others were shocked.
"Indeed, they seemed to know each other well," Celestia said, " They were going somewhere, a gathering of sorts, but this is not the most concerning part."
"What?" Rainbow was confused.
"He wore the attire of the school you art attending," Luna said.
"Here?" Twilight couldn't believe it, a god of Calamity, here, "wh-what do we do!?"
"Calm down Twilight," Celestia said, "We have managed to draw what he looks like, here."
Twilight gasped, scaring the others, she had seen this person before, she knew who it was, "But he's......."
~~~
Emerald shot out of his seat, Tsukune gave him an odd look, all he had done was sneeze.
"Hehe, Sorry," Emerald sat back down, some in the class were staring.
"Anyway," Miss Nekenome started, " This is what would happen if too much Monster energy were to be present, things would begin to bre-"
The bell rang, students all began to pack up, others talked and laughed, some just left without a word.
"Don't forget the school festival coming up," Nekenome called after them.
"Oh yeah, the school festival," Emerald thought aloud.
"You going?" Tsukune asked.
"Yeah, it sounds like fun," Emerald said.
"It does, I hope Hunter didn't plan any work during the festival," Tsukune walked with Emerald to the next class.
"Work during the festival, that would be pretty bad," Emerald agreed.
"Man, this reminds me of when I went to a festival with my sister," Tsukune said, a warm smile lighting him up.
"Whoa wait," Emerald stopped walking, "You have a sister?"
"Kinda, she's actually my cousin, but we've always been as close as brother and sister," Tsukune said.
"Is she hot?" Killua said from behind them.
"Gah!" they both jumped.
"Don't say stuff like that!" Tsukune said, flustered.
"So she's not?" Killua said.
"What, why would you want to know?" Tsukune asked.
"Just curious," Killua said backing off.
"Jeez," Tsukune huffed.
"Hey Tsukune!" a person called him before he got into class, Hunter, "We got another job."
"And like the voice of work itself," Tsukune sighed, " So what is it this time?"
Hunter walked over and whispered something in Tsukunes' ear, making Tsukune sigh, another job, another day.
~~~
The one upside to this job was the fact that it wasn't too far off in another dimension or something, just the warehouse a little far away from the school.
"Keep sharp, someone or something isn't supposed to exist here," Hunter said, getting another sigh from Tsukune.
"Alright, how bad is it," Tsukune asked as they approached the warehouse.
"Bad, strong enough affect the matter around it," Hunter said, "This is where i leave ya, good luck."
"Wow, this could be a hard one," Tsukune pushed open the doors, inside it was dark, "Oooh, spooky scary.
"Indeed, Tsukune Aono," A feminine voice from within spoke, making him freeze, "We've been waiting."
"What? Why?" Tsukune couldn't see them, but there were many there.
"We knew you would answer our call," the voice said as they moved forward, "so we could get rid of the idiot human right now."
Out walked the school nurse, Mako Yakumaru, and her allies, the outcasts, "Why get rid of me?"
"Why else? You get to walk among monsters while we are thrown out?" she said, "And the boss orders it, he is so very generous, giving me a new arm, and this lovely sword."
The sword she held in her left hand had a black blade, the edge of it lightly glowing orange, "Fancy, what does it do?" Tsukune asked.
"Don't know, but I'd love to find out," She grinned madly, then charged him, Tsukune managed to dodge with a left lean, "I have him, leave him to me!"
"Good luck with that," Tsukune called to them, ducking under another slice, with the small window he jumped upward and hit her right in the face, "Hah, so slow."
"Oh yeah?" She gritted, pulling the blade right, missing by a hair.
"Yeah," Tsukune said, he then kicked the blade out of her hand, sending it to the wall.
"RrRR," Mako growled, she pushed him back and dived for the blade, but by the time she reached it a kick send her tumbling.
"Ah ah," Tsukune waved a finger, he was going to make a witty remark but something felt weird, something felt bad.
"What was that about me being slow?" Mako was suddenly right in front of him, he didn't have time to block as she hit him right through the wall.
"What, wha happened?" Tsukune got up and held his head, he felt like his senses were dulling, but he didn't know why.
"I did," she stood in front of him again, this time with the sword in her hand, she went to bring the sword down, but someone else kicked her, Moka.
"Why are you here?" Tsukune quietly asked, losing his senses a little faster.
"Because I followed you," Moka said, "But I can't do this, you need to take this off."
Tsukune was starting to feel fuzzy, "I can't."
"Please you have to!" Moka took his hand and placed it on the rosary, Tsukune hadn't noticed, he was passing out, but before he did a sword came down, cutting the rosary chain clean through," What."
"Damn, hoped to get his hand," Mako cursed, then was shoved back by the bright red light, the true Moka was awakened.
"No, not this time," Moka growled, then launched her attack on the mental sword wielding annoyance, both traded blows at a high speed level, the other goons were in awe, but one noticed that Tsukune had awakened, and was getting up.
"Let's get him!" one yelled, the others yelled in agreement and ran for him, their last mistake, with one swipe Tsukune took off ones head, with his second he impaled another, and with his third move he crashed another with the second one, splattering them both across the ground.
"What the hell?!" the last words of the one who landed a punch, ripped in half immediately, Tsukune was taking them out left and right hardly taking a hit, but getting covered in blood, then without warning a person from above landed on Tsukune and began to expertly hit and block him, the hits registered with a vibration effect, making them more lethal.
"Ahck!" Tsukune knelt down, coughing blood.
"Good, you do register hits, have some more!" the person began to bombard him with hits, some of which cracked bones, after they had finished Tsukune fell down, "Pretty strong for a human, to last that long."
The words were lost on Tsukune as he got right back up, no sign of giving up, just boiling rage, he jumped forward and began to attack again, the person still avoided and blocked the hits, but this time it was different, like a beast.
"Very good, still standing even, but to attack," the person delivered a punch that sent Tsukune flying across the room, landing hard on the broken concrete, " But to still fight? most impressive."
"RRRaaAgh!" Tsukune roared and got back up and charged, injuries be damned.
"Impossible," the person gasped, no human was possible of shaking that off, what was he!?
Tsukune grabbed the pest before he recovered, lifting up, flipping him, and bringing him down with one swift move, a crack sounded as the person had his neck snapped and crushed, still not enough for Tsukune, he turned and spotted the fight between Moka and Mako, both furiously fighting, Tsukune had his target.
"You're death will be so delicious," Mako taunted, swinging again.
"You need to learn your place!" Moka yelled and went to round house kick, but her opponent dodged it and tripped her.
"No you learn yours," Mako brought the sword up to slash, but before she could a piece of steel beam struck through her shoulder, making her gasp and fall to her knees.
"Mako!" Tsukune roared as he cleared the space in a single step, then began to rip her apart like an animal, biting her neck he began to slash at her, Mako cried out in agony, this was unlike anything she had ever experienced.
"H-help me!" Mako cried, but there was no one, and Moka was too shocked to do anything, then with a disturbing squish he bit clean through her neck.
"Much better," Tsukune said, his mouth dripping blood, Moka finally regained herself, then grabbed the sword and pointed it at him.
"I'm so sorry Tsukune, I hadn't realized you were so far gone, to become a ghoul," Moka said, pulling the sword back, "I can't allow you to keep doing this, goodbye."
Without any further warning she stabbed Tsukune right through the chest with the sword, Tsukune gasped and began to fall, a scream came from the door, Kurumu and the others had just walked in, "M-m-mo-k-ka," Tsukune managed before falling to the ground consciousness leaving him, but before he was gone he saw a fist connect with Mokas' face.

Chapter 12: Helluva lot of explaining
Chapter 12
The odd yet wonderful dream that Tsukune had was fading, he began to regain his senses, then the pain slowly throbbed in his mind, he had been in a fight, no, that was too generous, it was a massacre, until it began to fade, was he running at Moka? He couldn't tell.
"-e's waking," a familiar voice said, others soon joined in.
"Don't thin-," another said.
"your fault!" one screamed.
"Could you keep it down, my head is killing," Tsukune said as he finally awoke, when he looked around he found that he was in the school hospital, everyone of his friends were around him, they each had different but similar expressions, 'what are you.'
"Tsukune i'm so glad you're awake!" Kurumu hugged him before any of the others could react.
"Oof! Careful, still injured," Tsukune fought back the pain.
"S-sorry," Kurumu pulled back and turned away, embarrassed, Tsukune realized that his shirt was wet, she had been crying.
"Are you really alright?" Gon asked from his right.
"Yeah, just not feeling so well in the chest," Tsukune said, he then did a self scan, all things seemed normal, except the stab wound in his chest, it didn't seem to want to heal, like it couldn't even if he tried.
"Well yeah, getting stabbed can do that," Killua said with a shrug, earning some harsh glares.
"Now that we know you are well," Emerald spoke, " The real question."
"Why, did you...," Yukari started.
"Go crazy?" Mizore finished.
"Well," Tsukune thought for a second, he couldn't tell them, "I become a monster when i lose it?"
"Bullshit," Inner Moka spoke up from the back, "I'm unfamiliar with a human who can become that strong and fast when they lose control."
"Really it's true," Tsukune tried to convince them.
"Don't take me for an idiot!" Moka yelled, she rushed forward and grabbed him by the shirt, "Tell me what you are!"
"GET OFF HIM!!" Kurumu yelled in return, prying Moka off and smashing her against the wall, "YOU'RE THE REASON HE'S IN HERE, SO GET OUT!!!"
"Get off me!" Moka pushed Kurumu down and walked out the door.
"You two need to calm down," Yukari said.
"Shut up!" Kurumu said in rage.
"Chill out," Mizore walked over.
"You Chill out Frosty mcBitch!" Kurumu pushed her away.
"HEY!" Tsukune said, cringing, Kurumu stopped and looked over startled, " Come here!"
"Wha-" Kurumu mumbled, still shocked.
"Now," Tsukune gestured her over, she walked slowly over, "It's ok."
Kurumu began to break down as he pulled her in, his warm hug just melting her anger, leaving her nothing but sadness.
"Wow," Gon just sat.
"Yeah," Killua agreed, she began to calm down.
"Feeling alright?" Tsukune asked, she nodded and weakly cried, "Now what I really need to say you must listen."
They nodded, scooting a little closer, " I am a-" A crash from outside the door, making them all stop and turn, in burst Twilight and her friends, they all seemed angry, yet cautious.
"Feeling better, Calamity?" Twilight asked with much venom.
"Very much so, thanks," Tsukune smiled and turned to her.
"Good, cause this is the last comfortable place you will have the pleasure of staying in," Twilight growled.
"What makes you say that?" Tsukune didn't bat an eye.
"Don't make this any harder than it needs to be," Rainbow smugly said, "just come with us."
"What are the charges constable?" Tsukune took an accent.
"Don't play dumb, ya know what ya done," Applejack said.
"Enlighten me," Tsukune folded his arms.
"Oh really, like disrespecting both of our rulers, being in league with Discord, representing Calamity," Twilight listed, she took up a defensive pose and began to cast a spell.
"Oh that, what a bunch of tightwads," Tsukune waved them off and shifted down, "Now please go, I need some rest."
"Why you slack little prick," Rainbow gritted her teeth, jumping at him fist first, but before she made contact she hit an orange hexagon shield, it flared as she stumbled before disappearing.
"My, what a pain," Hunter walked in and past the others, "please refrain from engaging my patient while he is still recovering."
"And who the hay are you?!" Rainbow yelled, she turned to him threateningly.
"His personal medic," Hunter wrote something on what seemed like an tablet, "As my patient has asked, please leave."
"You stay out of this, we came for him, we won't leave without him," Twilight said, the others voicing agreements.
"Them my apologies, this may disorient you," Hunter twisted his hand slightly, making them fade out like an old tv image.
"And who the hell is he?" Kurumu pointed.
~~~
"Ow ow ow," Twilight moaned, she sat up, her friends slowly got up as well, they were all feeling off, like they weren't meant to be there.
"That hurt," Rainbow growled.
"Yer tellin me!" Applejack had trouble opening her eyes.
"Aye aye, my back agrees!" Pinkie jumped, "Ow."
"It really tingled," Fluttershy mumbled.
"Certainly not my favorite style of transportation," Rarity fretted over her hair.
"That *ow* medic really knows his magic," Twilight moaned again.
"Powers, darling," Rarity combed her hair.
"Right monsters here," Twilight said, "But we need to get Calamity!"
"Patience is, um, a virtue," Fluttershy softly spoke.
"Right, right, so are the elements," Rainbow rolled her eyes.
"But we need a plan, who knows what he'll do if we let him roam free," Twilight said, "So let's get planning."
~~~
Tsukune sat with Hunter, the others got the answers they were satisfied with and left, leaving them to talk, "So I don't understand, why can't I heal this?"
"Well it's because it's a disintegration blade,"Hunter said, taking note that the injury seemed to heal well, "not a normal one, but an unreal one, meaning it disintegrates your very existence."
"Oh," Tsukune held his injury.
"Indeed, but that isn't a problem now, I must tell you something," Hunter said, Tsukune listened, but the door to the room cracked open, a person looked in.
"Is it....safe now?" a small but familiar voice asked, it was Mako!
"You!!" Tsukune sat up more, making him lean back again, his injury stung.
"M-me? P-pl-ease don't hurt m-me!" She shook as she pressed against the wall, "I'm sor-ry!"
"Hey, it's ok, he won't hurt you," Hunter cast him a glance, "Come on over."
"Alright," She inched closer, Tsukune thought she looked a little different, she was rather timid looking, no longer like a psycho, "Hi, I'm...... Mako Yakumaru."
"I kinda know, but..... good to meet you," Tsukune tried to not let his past feelings affect him now, and it was easier because she looked so, cute, which made him blush a little, "Sorry for yelling at you, I just mistook you for someone else."
"Oh ok then," She said quietly, she liked him, he didn't at her a lot, like others.
"Miss Yakumaru here was under the effects of an advancement change, making her schizophrenic and older than she actually was, meaning she is actually your age," Hunter smiled a smug smile to Tsukune, "I hope you to can get along, she is my patient too, but I have work to do, play nice now!"
"Yessir," Mako called.
"Y-yeah," Tsukune stuttered.
"So did we meet some where before?" Mako suddenly asked, no timid voice anymore.
"Another person like you maybe, but no," Tsukune said.
"You seem so familiar, and I don't know why," Mako said, she tapped her chin as she thought for a second, "I remember now," She said with some happiness in her voice, "You're my boyfriend, that's right!"
"Say what," Tsukune seemed shocked.
"Tsukune Aono, the one who said they would be my own little god, if only I stay with him," She purred as she climbed on the bed and hugged him closer, "I'm happy we weren't apart long."
"Yeah," Tsukune said nervously, "Hey, why do you seem more relaxed?"
"It was the medic," She said, still holding him, "He's really scary."
"True, he can be really scary," Tsukune agreed, feeling more comfortable.
The door opened again as Emerald stepped in, he gave them a blank look for a second before speaking, "Don't forget that the festival is almost here."
"Oh yeah," Tsukune remembered, "Hey, why was the inner Moka, here?"
"Oh yeah, her rosary chain was cut clean through by that crazy sword," Emerald said, turning to leave, "Hunter's working on fixing it without causing more issues."
"Thanks,"Tsukune called before settling himself to a comfortable spot on the bed, Mako still attached.
"You should get some rest," She told him, she herself was drifting off, he thought he may as well rest.
~~~
"You're late," Q said from behind Calamity, making him jump a light year.
"Now now, he's not late, nor is he early, but arrived exactly when he meant to," The elderly wizard said.
"Well said Gandalf, well said indeed," Discord smiled, the group he was with were sitting at what seemed to be a war planning table, the people around, somewhat all familiar, "Do grab a seat young Calamity."
"Sure," Calamity sat as the others situated themselves and readied for the meeting to begin.
"Ladies, gentlemen, wizards, witches, and other chaoslings," Began Lucy Heart, Goddess of honor, "We convene here today to discuss some rather nasty business, but first, Calamity if you will rise."
Calamity stood up slowly, some clapping was heard, what was this?
"Congratulations on an excellent start to ascension," she gave him a warm smile, she was talking about his outburst at the warehouse, "Though unfortunately injured by an unreal item, you did beyond brilliant for a start, you may sit now."
"Thank you," Calamity sat, then someone spoke.
"That aside, what is it you wish us to talk of," A dark haired person near the back asked, they didn't look much older than Calamity, and wore a black coat with white lines.
"Well sir,um," She paused for his name.
"Kirigaya, god of dimension," He gave a polite bow, which she returned.
"Well sir Kirigaya, what we are all here for is rather, alarming," She let her voice drop a little, "we are gathered here to discuss their next movement."
"Who's next movement hmm?" A little green long eared man asked.
"Well it's actually," She sighed and bit her lip, "The Tikens."
Everyone gasped, some began speak with others in a hushed tone, some cowered, some took up rage, while few just sat, confused.
"Who?" Calamity asked, silence greeted him for an answer.

Chapter 13: Now back to you!
Chapter 13
Tsukune woke to a punch in the face, opening his eyes he saw Hunter standing there with a disapproving look, He rubbed his cheek as Hunter spoke, "You overslept, get going while you can still catch the first class."
"Oh right," Tsukune bolted up and got ready as quick he could with bandages on.
"You can take those off as the end of the week," Hunter said, pointing to the bandages.
"Right, thanks," Tsukune put on the last of his uniform before taking off out the door to school.
"That kid," Hunter sighed, disappearing with a sizzle.
~~~
Tsukune slowed his pace as he approached the school gate, others were giving him odd looks, like he killed someone, "Take a few nights to heal and everyone treats you like a freak," Mumbled to himself, he didn't bother listening to their conversations, he didn't care, but what bothered him though was that there was a student walking close behind him, black hair and green eyes, very dangerous looking.
"Something I know all too well," the student replied.
"Sorry, meant to keep that to myself," Tsukune said as the student walked up by him.
"Oh don't worry, I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who heard," He assured Tsukune, "My name's Bryan."
"I'm Tsukune," He smiled, not entirely comfortable.
"And I'm Miria!" A girl said from Tsukunes' other side, making both their hearts stop, "Too loud?"
"A little," Bryan shook it off.
"It was a good sound level," Tsukune tried to be kind.
"Nah too loud," Miria said, fixing her blond hair.
"Alright then, off to school?" Bryan asked, gesturing ladies first.
"Sure," gesturing him first, she smiled.
"Geez you two," Tsukune sighed and walked ahead.
"Wait up!" Miria called as she ran to catch up.
"Uh hey?" Bryan sped up.
The observers assessed them, they seemed to have fair power, even seperate, but that is not what interested the observer, what was interesting is what use they could serve with their powers.
~~~
School was rather uninteresting today, at least Tsukune seemed to think so, classes went rather good, no interruptions, lunch was nice and peaceful, no arguing or fighting, the only concern was that he didn't see any of the girls, sure he saw Emerald, Gon and Killua, Even Josh was there.
"Hey, anyone seen the girls?" Killua said what he thought.
"Now that you mention it, they weren't here today," Gon said.
"Actually, most of the girls weren't in class today," Josh spoke.
"Yeah, wonder what that's about," Gon scratched his chin.
"Why don't ya just ask?" Mirias' voice came from behind them, stopping all their hearts, "Too close?"
"Yup," Killua put his hand down.
"Kinda," Gon agreed.
"Just a tad," Josh said.
"I guess," Tsukune said.
"Yup it was," Miria agreed again, "So ya want to know why most of the girls weren't in class today huh?"
"That's what we wonder," Killua folded his arms.
"Come closer," she gestured as they spared an ear, then whispered, "heat week."
"Uh," Gon gasped, the others had similar reactions, Josh just shrugged.
"Yup, that would explain it," Josh began to walk off, the others sped up to keep with him.
"This doesn't worry you?" Tsukune asked.
"Not really, I have a place I can go to get away from all this," Josh smirked.
"Can I come?" Killua asked.
"Me too!" Gon raised a hand.
"Eh? sure I guess," Josh shrugged, "But don't act surprised."
"K" Gon smiled.
"You gonna come to Tsukune?" Josh asked, getting his attention.
"No thanks, I have work to do, catch you guys later!" Tsukune turned and jumped off a cliff, but when they went to check, he was gone.
"Strange that one," Killua said, the others agreed immediately, "So are we taking her too?" He pointed to Miria.
"Why not, she hasn't tried to rut us yet," Josh reasoned.
"True, but what makes you think she won't try?" Killua asked.
"It's better if I don't," Miria gave a weak laugh, "My, kind, get heat the worst, better if ya go without me."
"Aw come on, how bad could it be," Killua asked.
"We can track the one we want across a planet if we want to," She said, short and deadly.
"Yikes, well see ya after then," Gon smiled nervously.
"Sure thing, have fun!" Miria waved as she walked to her dorm.
"Now where is this place you spoke of?" Killua asked.
"Wait, did you see Emerald with us?" Gon asked.
~~~
Emerald was on a scouting mission, at the request of his friend Tsukune he was checking out the Festival stalls, he was searching for anything suspicious, or that gave off an odd energy, no luck so far.
"Hello," A soft voice called, he turned and saw that it was Twilight, "Anything I can help you with, you are searching for something right?"
"Uh, yeah, something out of the ordinary, something that might give off an unusual energy," Emerald said.
"Great, I know a spell that can help," Twilight focused, her horn glowing, they began to search.
"Nice," Emerald complimented.
"Oh thanks," Twilight blushed.
Emerald was about to say more, but his sense caught some thing, it felt malicious, he went over to the swimming club stall and peered in, something inside a bag was glowing a faint green light, "Hey Twilight I think I fou-"
Like a bullet Rainbow dash crashed down on his head, knocking him through the stall counter, out cold, "Phew, he sure is sturdy," Rainbow got off him.
"Rainbow what the hay!" Twilight yelled.
"You were taking too long Twi, so I got him," Rainbow smirked.
"You could have hurt him!" Twilight yelled again.
"Calm down, he's sturdy enough survive that, besides, I got him," Rainbow tried to lift him, "Oof, could use a hoof here."
"Fine," Twilight levitated him, walking away from the wrecked stand.
~~~
"No report yet," Tsukune said, checking his phone for the fifth time.
"Maybe your friend found nothing, or maybe he was attacked," Hunter said, scanning the surrounding mountain.
"You always say stuff like that," Tsukune scowled.
"Never rule out a thing until you know," Hunter threw a rock and looked down a rabbit hole.
"Something life taught you?" Tsukune asked.
"No, life taught me, 'If it's not one, it's the other," Hunter held a flashlight toward the rabbit hole.
"Oh, hey why are you staring at a rabbit hole?" Tsukune knelt down next to him to see.
"What you should really ask is, 'Why is there a rabbit hole on a solid stone mountain?" Hunter turned his head to Tsukune.
"Uh," Tsukune was at a loss, why had he assumed it was a rabbit hole?
"This seems to be a vent," Hunter examined it some more.
"For a factory or something," Tsukune asked.
"More than likely," Hunter agreed.
"How do we get in?" Tsukune knew they wouldn't fit.
"Just, knock," Hunter lightly tapped around the vent, causing cracks to grow around it.
The vent caved in and they both slid down a dark hole, the cave at the bottom was, actually not a cave, but a kitchen, expertly carved from stone, precise and smooth, the kitchen seemed to have been used recently, the oven and such were rather clean, and the fruit on the counter was still fresh.
"Tread lightly," Tsukune whispered.
"Indeed," Hunter agreed quietly.
"Who do you think lives here?" Tsukune asked as they silently left the kitchen.
*"Standard answer," Hunter replied.
"You think?" Tsukune was skeptical
"Could be, with this level of architecture," Hunter and Tsukune left the dining hall.
"That would be, unpleasant," Tsukune sighed, they were nearing what they believed to be the front door to this mountain house, but when they went to open in it they backed up, the door swung open and on the other side stood some thing that made them stop and stare.+
~~~
Moka was not very aware today, all she really got were fuzzy fragments of her day, she was trying, like all the other girls to contain herself within the dorm, but apparently that didn't work, she and many of the others were all over the male students, trying to satisfy themselves. Some of the guys didn't seem to mind either, but Moka was only passing them by, she felt herself searching, looking for Tsukune, her and Mizore, Kurumu, Yukari, and some other girl were on the hunt for Tsukune.
She felt like some animal on the hunt, she was getting closer, she could tell because she started to lose more focus, like her animal side was trapping her logical side.
Some mountain in the south barrier, that's all she knew, he was around here, the world began to grow lighter, but before she completely lost it, the mountains exploded, causing her to take control again, she looked in shock, then realized, she was in control, meaning Tsukune was....
♘Rosario+vampire: Year of the Dragon
Chapter 14: Is that...my voice?
Chapter 14
The world was fuzzy around him, making him cringe at the bright light around him, like really bright, almost like being on the surface of the sun, but he soon shook it off, looking around he noticed that he wasn't where he was before, this place was too clean, and had banners everywhere.
"Rest well?" a voice asked from behind a throne near the center of the room, out walked a tall white horse with wings and a horn, it's mane flowing in some unseen wind.
"I suppose so," He responded, realizing that he was in his dragon form.
"You seem surprised, is this not your true form?" the white horse asked.
"It is, but I don't remember releasing my human form," He wobbled a little as he stood up.
"Why would you need such a thing?" she asked him.
"It is a rule of the school, and I heard the energy could cause unfortunate effects," Emerald stretched a bit.
"But is your dragon form not enough?" she asked him, stepping closer.
"Oh believe me, I am proud to be a dragon, but it can be intimidating to others," Emerald took a cautious step back.
"I see, and I enjoy being an Alicorn, but it is intimidating to others," She said as she took another step back.
"Really?" Emerald kept from laughing, she looked cuddly, "So you are an Alicorn?"
"Yes, a mix of earth, pegasus, and unicorn ponies, my name is Princess Celestia," She said, then looked up at him, he being a hoof taller than her or so, "Does my form not frighten you?"
"Not really, you truthfully look cuddly," Emerald smiled.
"I do huh? would you?" She smiled as she watched him internally panic.
"Uh well, I guess if I knew you," he gave a nervous laugh.
"Beware, looks can deceive," She said, Emerald nodded, Tsukune came to mind, but before he could say anything her power level spiked, her mane started on fire and her eyes glowed, energy collecting around her horn, then within a split second she launched a solar beam hot enough for the entire kingdom to feel.
The beam ceased as the she stood up straight, but to her absolute shock he was still standing there, unfazed by the attack or the melting room around him, "I know it well."
"More than interesting, any other being would have dodged," She paused taking notice of his power level lowering to a metaphoric hum, " You were able not only to take it, but still have astonishing power left."
"Of course, good defense and offense require near no power," Emerald smiled, she knew him it seemed.
"You seem well trained," She sat and seemed to invite him over.
"Have to be, I carry the Spire name on my shoulders," Emerald sat.
"Spire?" She had a confused look, not of unknowing, but of previous different knowledge, "Interesting."
"Yeah," He sat forward a little, " don't take this wrong, but you talk like you know me."
"What if I say I do?" she gave him a warm smile.
"Where would I know you from?" Emerald seemed to get a nostalgic feeling from her, "Perhaps a party?"
"Oh no, we have more history than that," She trotted over and sat next to him.
"Do I also have history with the ones lurking in the shadows as well?" Emerald didn't bother turning to see their surprise.
"How did you notice us?" a familiar voice called as six figures left the shadows.
"Ooh! maybe he read our minds! or maybe he uses a weird chakra field that senses our heart beat and pulse and stuff," the pink one jumped and hung in the air for a second.
"That sounds ridiculous," the rainbow pegasus scoffed.
"It does sound mighty far fetched," the orange one agreed.
"Actually that last one wasn't so far out," Emerald smiled and turned to them, only to stop and stare, they were.
"So is it some sort of heat sensing spell?" purple asked.
"Uh, no, it works more like natural sense tuning," Emerald was then calm, "But I guess that's not a big thing around here Twilight?"
"So you recognize me?" Twilight was surprised.
"Hard to forget a pretty face," Emerald said all smoothlike.
"Ew, that's just, ew," Rainbow gagged.
"What? not one for mushy stuff?" Emerald laughed as she cringed even more.
"First, that's just wrong, second, i'm no good at mushy stuff," Rainbow didn't look amused.
"What, is it so wrong to see Twilight as cute?" Emerald had a pleading face.
"Ew ew ew, that's just loving your sister," Rainbow and pinkie gagged.
"What?" Emerald was hit with an unexpected feeling of familiarity.
"Rainbow!" Twilight yelled.
"It's alright Twilight, he would have found out anyway," the princess said, but before Emerald could question it, her lit horn touched his head, everything went white.
~~~
Tsukune hurt all over, really bad, he couldn't believe that they had found something in the cave factory fort thing, but they did, and apparently it exploded, but that was the least of his problems, now he was concerned about how bad the damage was, had he lost a limb, or perhaps his spine broke?
"Ugh," A foreign voice left his mouth, it sounded female, but that can't be right.
Gasping he opened his eyes and sat up, but as soon as he did that, he felt pain shoot through him like a train, "Hey now, take it easy, you were just hit by seventy five metric tons of force after all," A familiar but unfamiliar voice spoke beside him.
"Who, ah, are you?" He spoke, but again, didn't sound right.
"Come on, don't tell me you don't recognize me," Tsukune turned to identify who it was, and was shocked, there sat Hunter, with long flowing hair, a cute face, and a big pair of knockers on his chest, he was female.
"H-hunter?" Tsukune stopped and checked himself, indeed he had long hair, and some fair sized breasts, barely contained in his shirt.
"Actually, while i'm like this, it's Huntress," she spoke, technically true, "You feeling alright?"
"Uh huh, just takes a moment to get my head around," Tsukune said, "And I guess I should be called, um........, Tsukie!"
"Good one, Tsukie," Huntress tried to keep from laughing.
"Hey! it's from what my cousin called me," Tsukie huffed and turned away.
"Well then, shall we get going?" Huntress asked.
"Lead the way," Tsukie gestured as she struggled to get up.
"Here," Huntress put her arm around her and helped her up.
"Thanks," Tsukie cringed as pain hit again.
"I wonder if Emerald's ok," Huntress said.
"Or if the girls are alright right now," Tsukie added.
"Yeah, hopefully that explosion didn't catch much attention," Huntress said.
"Can someone please explain why i'm a guy?" someone asked from their left, turning they saw it was Kurumu, or at least looked like her, still wearing a dress.
"Reasons?" Tsukie shrugged, Mizore sat up and rubbed her/his head.
"I feel so funky," Yukari managed to stand, entire body protesting.
"It's good to see you guys are alright," Tsukie smiled, then realized that Moka wasn't there, "Hey, where's Moka?"
They looked around, no sign of her/him, where had he/she gotten to, "Maybe she wasn't affected by the heat," Kurumu suggested.
"That's not it, she definitely would have been affected," Tsukie widened her search range, looking around the wreckage, then saw Moka stand up from near a large part of the machine, seeming perfectly fine, "Hey, are you alright?"
"Uh yeah, seems so," Moka did a quick check as he came to realize that Tsukie was a girl, "When did, why are..."
"Yes we are the opposite gender of our original forms, yes it came from the explosion," Huntress took a moment to calculate something, "But no, this is not permanent, this will only last a day, for you."
"Oh thank goodness, I can't imagine living without my godly body," Kurumu said, "Wait what do you mean for us!?"
The others ignored her, "So we get to experience what it's like to be a guy," Yukari tapped her chin, "Yay! now I can try some things I have been wondering about."
"Uh," Tsukie was concerned.
"Guess I can try being a guy for a day," Moka too gave Yukari a concerned look.
"We should get away from here," Huntress caught everyone's attention, "I get the feeling that whoever owned that machine and the mountain base won't be too happy with us."
"Oh," they all stopped and looked at all the wreckage, this would not end well for them, so they quickly gathered themselves and left, no want to be part of the scene.
~~~
Josh woke up, head pounding, the last the he remembered was giving a tour of the Tardis, the next something rocked the Tardis, knocking them unconscious, now he woke, but instead he was outside, in the forest, and not in the Tardis.
"Gya!" Someone said from beside him, turning he saw that it was Gon, female Gon, how odd.
"You alright....Gon?" The feminine voice of Killua said from near a tree, where Killua was slouched against.
"Been better," Gon sat herself upright, "Anything with you?"
"Aside from being sore, not much," Killua front flipped off the tree and semi-gracefully landed, "Is Josh alright?"
"Aye, just a little shaken," Josh spoke, realizing that her own voice gave away her gender.
"You seem alright, although not very surprised," Killua helped Gon up.
"It's...not the first time this has happened," Josh rolled over to get up.
"So this has happened before?" Gon asked, to which Josh nodded.
Josh stopped and thought, should she tell them the story, or would she rather they don't know? Meh, they can guess at it, "It's not something I think you two should hear."
"Now I want to hear it," Gon giggled, then realized, "Hey, why aren't we in your Tardis thingy?"
"I'm not entirely sure," Josh pulled out her screwdriver and scanned the surrounding area, hardly a trace could be found of it, but other than that, it was gone.
"That doesn't seem good," Killua had picked up on approaching footsteps, lots of them, " Be ready."
From the other side of the small lit area of the forest, a group had indeed walked out, the air growing suspenseful and caution spiking, both parties assessed each other and sized up the threat, then laughed.
♘Rosario+vampire: Year of the Dragon
Chapter 15: Identity Crisis
Chapter 15
In the dark abysmal plain of the mind two figures stood, one tall, the other short, both hated the other with equal might, matching memory for memory two different lives, but it was clear who the winner would be.
"They are my family!! You cannot ignore this!!" the smaller one yelled.
"This is my family!! those were your family!!" the taller one yelled back, "This is my mind!!! My body!! You no longer belong!!"
"Then I will take it back by force!!" the small one began to assault the bigger one with emotion, logic, memory, and intelligence.
"Perish then!!!" the taller one shot out emotion, logic, memory, and intelligence, the fight for control raging.
One overpowered the other, and the cry came as they lost control, "Just don't forget them!"
~~~
Two eyes opened as the dragon stood, then with much anger, yet kindness, spoke, "You can thank him, for keeping me from attacking you, to invade a Spires' mind, is to declare war on us all."
"I'll keep that in mind next time I do something like that," Celestia smiled, it was clear to her that this was Emerald, " So how are you feeling?"
"That little guy can put up a heck of a fight," Emerald rubbed his head, "But other than that, hungry."
"We can take you to the dining hall, they have plenty to eat there," Twilight suggested.
"Yeah, I wouldn't mind a hayburger," Rainbow said nonchalantly.
"Sounds, tasty," Emerald was unfamiliar with food around here, other than the gems.
"So how does it feel to be back Spikey?" Pinkie bounced next to him.
"I'm Emerald, not Spike, sorry," Emerald said, 'You could at least tell them i'm still here ya know,' Spike said from in Emeralds head.
"Right, you just look like Spike," Pinkie nervously laughed.
"Anyway, what do plan to do now that you're back darling?" Rarity spoke.
"Huh? back?" Emerald hoped they didn't mean what he thought they did.
"Yeah, I am mighty curious what y'all plan ta do now," Applejack asked, "ah mean, sure Ponyville will accept ya, but what would ya do for work?"
Yup, he was afraid they would say that, "I don't plan on staying here," Emerald was internally arguing with Spike as well.
Everyone stopped, "What do you mean?" Twilight asked.
"I still have so many things that I must do in my world," Emerald said, Spike again protested.
"But you don't even belong there," Rainbow pointed a hoof, "You belong here."
"No, Spike belongs here, I have a life, family, and many friends who still wait for me at my home," Emerald turned to Twilight, "Where is the portal you brought me through?"
"You can't thought!" Twilight yelled, "We need you here!"
"And they need me there," Emerald replied, 'Just stay, it's nice here,' Spke had calmed significantly, having seen some of the memories Emerald had.
"How many actually need you there?" Celestia finally spoke up, "I can open a view to see how many of these friends really need you."
"Huh?" Emerald was curious, her horn lit again, this time a window like image opened in front of them, the other side was Yokai, then they changed to the view of his friends, or he thought, since when was Tsukune a girl?
"I wonder if Emerald really was attacked,"
"So this is how you saw us," Emerald was somewhat enraged, but then had an idea, "This is like the portal you brought me through."
"Yes, it is a dimensional viewing spell," Celestia saw he was smarter than ever, "Yet it is modified so we could bring you here."
"I see," Emerald wasted no more time, with the strength he had, the item he held flew directly through the portal, gone before they could react, "Then my apologies, but I cannot stay, and since you all seem to treat me like a prisoner, I will have to call for aid."
"Why you!" Rainbow lunged at him.
~~~
Tsukie was sitting in her room, the others had discussed how to spend the day, but she was too busy worrying if Emerald was alright, he had been late before, but this wasn't late, this was missing. What was most worrying was the fact that the signal he went to in- Thunk!
"Ow," Tsukie rubbed her head and picked up the item, which happened to be a dark purple scale, well that doesn't hit you everyd-, "Wait, this is... Emeralds!"
Looking around she saw there was nothing, where had it come from? Tsukie tried to figure out where it had come from for a good five minutes, 'Why don't I just ask Huntress?'
"You rang?" Huntress' voice called from the window, startling Tsukie and nearly making her jump a mile.
"But I didn't," Tsukie had no idea how she knew.
"Think of the devil and she shall appear," Huntress smiled innocently.
"It's speak of the devil," Tsukie huffed.
"So whacha need?" Huntress asked.
"I got hit by this scale," She held it up.
"And you want me to find where it came from?" Huntress finished.
"Yeah, since he disappeared," Tsukie handed the scale over.
"Let's see here," Huntress took it and looked it over a few time, each time with a different energy or magic, "This came from another dimension, way too peaceful, not very interesting, could use some chaos, as for getting there, that's up to you," She gave back the scale to Tsukie.
"How am I supposed to get there!?" Tsukie asked as Huntress flipped out the window, "Oh wait, duh."
"Duh what?" another voice reached her ears from the doorway, in it sat Killua.
"Oh, just realized how I can save Emerald," She said, "All I would need to do is disru-... I mean create a dimension cross device."
"Sounds like fun, can I help?" Killua hopped in, Tsukie shrugged and went to work, really what she planned to do was contact the god of Dimensions, they could help her get there.
"Huh," Tsukie stopped and thought for a moment, "This may be harder to achieve than I thought," she had to stall for time, all she needed was to contact them, but that required lots of noticeable energy.
"Why don't I get Josh, this is her thing," Killua jumped for the window, "It's way beyond me."
"Sure sure," once Kilua left Tsukie began to gather the required components to hold a mental call, all while minimizing the area of which it could be sensed, 'Calling all Peruvian Fages, do you read me Fage one?' Tsukie gave a call out to him.
'Huh? what?' the confused reply of the Dimension god came, 'Who is this?'
'Hi! this is Calamity, we met only once before,' Tsukie mentally replied.
'But Calamity is a guy, I remember,' came the response.
'Sorta had an accident involving a weird machine,' Tsukie mentally laughed.
'Oh, sounds about right,' he said, 'So what did you need.'
'A friend of mine seems to have got himself stuck in another dimension, could you please help me get him?' Tsukie asked nicely.
'I usually would, but i'm kinda in the middle of a life or death fight here,' he responded, 'Contact me later, when things settle a bit.'
'Sure, thanks Kirigaya, ' Tsukie ended the conversation and mentally hung up.
"Hey, you here Tsukie?" a small familiar voice came from the door, in it stood a male Mako, still cute.
"Hey Mako, been a while," Tsukie invited him in.
"Yeah, the school director called me to talk, and do some work for him," Mako smiled slightly, "But I came to see how my boyf- er, girlfriend is."
"Yeah, i'm alright," Tsukie said, after much mental discussion with herself before the machine, she decided to give Mako a chance.
"That's good, i would hate to-" Mako stopped, in the window were Josh and Killua, both were just watching, smiling like idiots.
"Did we interrupt you two lovebirds? Josh asked, Killua snickered.
"Uh no we were just-" Tsukie was interrupt as they burst out laughing.
"It's alright, we're to fault here," Killua laughed again.
"So I heard something about a dimensional portal?" Josh asked.
"Oh yeah, I need to make one so I can find Emerald," Tsukie refocused.
"Emerald? I thought he's been missing," Josh said.
"He is, in another dimension," Tsukie responded.
"How do you know?" Josh asked, Tsukie then handed her a purple scale, which she examined, "Yup, this is his."
"So can you help me?" Tsukie asked.
"Yeah, but it would require my Tardis, which is missing," Josh said, that put a damper on their spirits.
"Any idea where it could have gone?" Killua asked, Josh just shook her head and sighed.
"Well let's get going and search for her," Josh grabbed Killua and Mako, "You work on a plan should this go wrong."
"Yeah, good luck finding the Tardis," Tsukie had no idea what that was, Time to get started , sparks began to fly.

Chapter 16: Whoops, wrong dimension
Chapter 16
The world began to come into focus around Tsukie as her headache cleared, the surroundings became clear, a wall, she was sitting atop a giant wall, one side of which overlooked an enormous city, the other side seemed to be endless plains, as far as the eye could see, a few giant people dotting the land. When she got to her feet she saw a group walking the wall, they were dressed in some odd gear, two big metal boxes strapped to either side of their waist, on the back of their coats was a symbol of a shield with blades, military, how fun. Tsukie was careful to not get closer than necessary, she listened in, "Here we are on the damn wall when we could be taking the fight directly to the titans!!" one yelled, he didn't look happy.
"Calm down Eren, we'll get our chance," the blonde one said, he seemed to have a better head on him.
"But for now we must ask why someone is following us," the last one said, female, and very vigilant.
"Huh?" the other two swerved around faster than Kurumu jumped on Tsukie, the vigilant one already had two blades out, ready for a fight, the others fumbled with their equipment.
"Hi!" Tsukie said in purposely cheery yet freaky tone, "I'm kinda lost, could you perhaps tell me where I am?"
They looked at her like she was crazy (mental crazy, not Hannibal crazy), 'Eren' stifled a laugh, blonde kid seemed taken aback, and lady vigilance raised a brow and tilted her head, "Are you serious?!?" 'Eren' fell on the floor laughing.
"What?" Tsukie was confused, "Something I said?"
Eren laughed harder, lady vigilance sighed before sheathing the blades, " You are atop wall Maria, on of the three walls protecting humanity from the titans," She then cast a glare at Tsukie, "But the better question is, who are you?"
"Me? just a passing soul," Tsukie brushed off the question.
"How did you even get up here?" blonde guy asked.
"It's a rather interesting tale actually-," Tsukie began, but before she could speak a flash signaled the appearance of a giant titan, right beside them, "-That I must tell you another time," Tsukie teleported again as Eren sprung into action before the others.
~~
Landing face first into another place was not fun, Tsukie could attest to that, so standing up while clearing her head she took a look around, this time it seemed like a pretty normal town, except the fact there was an orange haired guy running her way, fast! With a crash they were both sent sprawling, each rubbed their head before looking at who they hit, Tsukie saw that he seemed to still be on edge, his brown eyes held sadness, "Sorrry, I wasn't looking where I was going," He apologized, in a subdued tone.
"It's alright, i'm sorry for bumping into you actually," She laughed weakly.
"It was my fault," he simply stated as he helped her up.
"Are you sure? You seem kinda sad," Tsukie didn't want to pry, but he did seem to be hurting..
"Yeah, guess that can happen in my situation," He felt a wave of emotion wrap around him.
"Oh, wanna talk about it?" Tsukie sat on a bench, offering him to do so as well, the street lights illuminating everything around them.
"I just met you,why should I?" He seemed cautious of strangers, rightly so.
"I completely understand, just want to ease the suffering is all," Tsukie shrugged, she had planned to just jump to the next one, but he interested her, he seemed to be in so much pain, yet was holding it together, it was intriguing.
"Sorry, I just seem to have bad luck meeting new people lately," he said, remembering something, " My name's Ichigo by the way."
"Call me Tsukie," She said, gesturing him to have a seat, which he took.
"Nice to meet you, unless you want to take something from me," Ichigo said, he seemed to lighten up a little.
"No, No, just wondering why you're so sad," She nervously chuckled.
"It's a long story really," He leaned back, "I'm not sure I can tell it all in one sitting, but needless to say, I would really like to get away from here."
"Oh yeah! No problem!" Tsukie smiled, preparing another jump, plus one.
This startled Ichigo, "What are you-!?"
~~
Both of them landed in the next place, it was a bright technicolor looking castle, adorning the walls were sun and moon banners, Tsukie noticed the familiarity, this could be the one, "So then thinking he really cared whether I got my powers back to protect others, I agreed," Ichigo continued, he wasn't even a little surprised.
"Who intrudes upon the eve of our victory?!!" A loud (yet feminine) voice rang from behind them, they turned around to see a dark, tall, menacing Alicorn, who wore the emblem of the moon, with a white Alicorn injured laying behind, not moving.
"Tis I, Tsukie, the Calamity god! Tremble peon!" Tsukie boomed back, taking the dark Alicorn by surprise.
"Uh, bad idea," Ichigo whispered to her.
"FOAL!! I AM NIGHTMARE MOON!! RULER OF DARKNESS, THOU SHOULD BE TREMBLING WITH FEAR BEFORE US!!" Nightmare roared at them, dark energy swirling around her, her eyes glowing with energy as her horn crackled.
"Nice, you went and pissed off a villain," Ichigo face palmed, "I haven't known you a day, and I can already tell what kind of person you are."
"Relax, I got this," Tsukie smirked as Nightmare moon finished her spell, sending a beam of pure lunar energy at Tsukie, who the split the beam with a quick chop, charging an attack behind her back.
"Astonishing, that thou wouldst posses such strength in such a weak form," Nightmare commented, not knowing of the imminent danger, as soon as the beam ceased an attack composed of redish white energy smashed directly into Nightmare, sending her flying through a wall.
"Wow," Ichigo whistled, he had seen some power in his time, but this was something else, he noticed Tsukie panting, "Are you gonna be alright?"
"Yeah, just don't do this often," Tsukie wheezed, "It's taking all I have not to let loose."
"Letting loose is bad," He didn't question it, he himself was a monster when he lost control.
"Now lets get going before she gets up," Tsukie formed the jump again, but was interrupted when Nightmare got up again, rage well gone, just a sad look, she sent a spell as Tsukie completed the jump, sending them spiraling through it, making them crash into the next world.
~~
Celestia sat on her throne, tending to the concerns of the nobleponies, how ridiculous it was to assure these overgrown foals that they need not be concerned about Spike, that he would hurt nopony, oh how Spike's rampage through ponyville had been a disaster, but all was well now, even if Spike felt responsible, but what concerned her the most was how distant the Elements of harmony push Spike, even when they said they were there for him, they weren't. It could lead to some big confrontation in the future, something that would haunt them for the rest of their lives.
A loud crash burst forward as the roof of the throne room exploded inward, two figures crashing down and destroying the floor, the guards around Celestia jumped forward, ready for the assault, but none came as whatever hit, was unconscious, Celestia inched forward peering into the small crater, inside she saw two familiar shapes, humans, both seemed fine despite the smoldering crater, but to be safe Celestia decided, "Take these two to the dungeon, and call in a vet to have a look at them."
"Yes your majesty," They all said, moving in to take them away, Celestia could feel the headache already.

Chapter 3: New students for the club
Chapter 3
"Welcome!" Nekenome said, "This is the newspaper club meeting room, so glad you decided to join!"
"Are we the only members?" Tsukune saked as he looked around, Killua, Gon, Moka, Emerald, Kurumu, and him were the only ones in the room.
"That's silly," Nekenome said, "There is also the class president, but I need to be going, have fun!"
"So sorry," A voice came as the door slid open, "Didn't mean to be late on the first day."
In walked a tall guy holding two bouquets of flowers, as he lowered them Emerald sat up, "What's up?" Gon asked.
"Good to see you Gin," Emerald smiled.
"Emerald my friend," Gin gave a dazzling smile back, "Good to see you decided to join my club.
"Who?" Gon wondered.
"What," Killua continued
"How?" Tsukune finished.
"My apologies, my name is Ginei Morioka," He said hand the bouquets to the two ladies, "A pleasure to meet you all."
Kurumu embraced Tsukune while watching Gin, 'Tsukune help, i'm not good with this kind of flirty guy.' Tsukune sat confused for a moment before Gin spoke.
"Alright, let me give you a quick rundown of what kind of club this is," Gin held a dazzling smile as everyone listened up, "The goal of the newspaper club is to report any interesting activity in the school an out."
"Hmm," Killua thought that through for a moment.
"I'll tell you now, this will be no easy ride," Gin got a little more serious, "We will be put in danger time and time again, just to get the scoop."
"I like him, he seems like someone we can depend on," Moka smiled, unaware of the small smirk that seized Gins' face for half a second.
"I'm just messing with you," Gin said, "Lets get out there and have fun without all the strict talk."
"Huh?" Gon was confused.
"Here," Gin held up a poster, "This is the ad poster for our club, lets put some up."
"Me and Gon will go put some up around the school," Killua grabbed a stack and walked out with Gon.
"Alright," Gin waved as they left, then turned to tell Emerald something, but found that he was talking to some odd brown haired guy by the door, good enough, "Miss Moka and Miss Kurumu, could you put some posters over the board for me please?"
"Sure," Moka gave a smile and pulled some chairs over.
"Hey uh, Tsukune, could you organize the rest of the posters," Gin gave him and oddly empty smile.
"Uh yeah," Tsukune began organizing them thinking about how odd Gin was.
"Could you guys put them a little higher please?" Gin asked as he squatted down, staring up their skirts.
"This high?" Kurumu strained.
"Yeah, perfect," Gin smiled.
"Gin! what are you doing!?" Tsukune jumped in front of Gin, "Stop staring up their skirts!"
"Me do that?" Gin faked surprise, "I'm not the guy who do something so lame."
"Oh yeah?" Tsukune threatened.
"What's going on here?!" Moka called from behind them
"Just this guy saying something about getting an eyeful of your panties," Gin waved it off.
"What? no that's not what I meant, I mean I did-" Tsukune was double slapped by two powerful monster hands with enough force to crush a human skull.
"Well thanks a lot Tsukune, thanks to you it looks like today's meeting is over," Gin said as the girls walked off, before walking off himself.
"What did I miss?" Emerald asked as he walked up to Tsukune, "What happened to your face?"
~~
The next morning Tsukune walked up toward Moka, but she pushed him back and walked away, "I don't like dirty perverts."
"Moka it was an accident, please," Tsukune begged.
"I don't care, I don't know you anymore," Moka walked off, 'I don't really mean it, I just want revenge for him peeping yesterday.'
"Geez man, didn't take you for that kinda guy," Killua walked past him.
"Yeah man, thought you were a nice guy," Gon walked after Killua.
"Even I find it hard to believe," Emerald walked past them all.
"But I didn't," Tsukune said in a small voice, his soul crushed.
"Hey Tsukune!" Gin walked up next to him, "Got a minute?"
"Oh, Gin," Tsukune tried not to sound too angry, "How can I help?"
"Come with me, I can help you clear this whole thing up," Gin said.
"Really?" Tsukune was skeptical.
"Yeah just follow me," Gin gestured him to follow.
~~
"Had it rough huh?" A person asked Tsukune, who was beaten up and heartbroken, she had said some unforgivable things.
"Why do you say that?" Tsukune turned to the guy, who happened to the person in the grey coat, but their hood was back revealing something odd, his eyes were like crosses, his eye color orange.
"Aside from how badly you took a beating, the sad look on your face, and the fact that no one visits the top of the highest school tower without good reason is another way to tell," He said.
"I was tricked," Tsukune put his head in his hands, "Someone else was sneaking peeks at the girls, and framed me for it, and now my friends won't even talk to me."
"Sounds familiar," The guy said as he sat next to Tsukune.
"Yeah?" Tsukune raised his head.
"I was once framed for the death of many close friends of mine," He said, almost letting emotion get to him.
"But why?" Tsukune asked, shocked.
"The one who came up with the blame didn't get along with me very well," Grey guy said.
"Oh," Tsukune drooped his head again.
"But I didn't let it affect me," Grey said, "I kept going, never letting it bring me down."
"Huh?" Tsukune looked over at him.
"A friend," He said, "Told me something that has kept me going for a long time, 'Get up, get up and keep walking, you have two damn good legs, so use them."
"I see," Tsukune thought about it for a moment, "Then I will, thank you, um."
"Hunter," he said, "D.j. Hunter."
"Thank you Hunter, I will do this," Tsukune felt renewed.
"AHHHHHHHHH!" a voice sreamed in the light of the full moon.
"That was Moka!" Tsukune said while climbing down the tower.
"Good luck," Hunter saluted before putting his hood back on.
~~
"SO HURRY UP AND DIE!" The wolf said as he charged Kurumu, who was defending Moka, but before anyone could react a blur landed in front of both girls, startling them all, Tsukune then stood up, holding the rosary.
"What?" Kurumu was shocked, where did he come from?
A blinding light then shot out as Moka transformed into her true form, making the wolf shield his eyes, then before him stood a vampire to behold, "So this is your true form, that's the freakin best, now I have to make you mine!"
"Don't screw with me!" Moka went for a swipe, only to hit air.
"What were you aiming for? I'm over here." Gin smirked, then took off again, "Vampires have incredible strength, and werewolves have incredible speed, during a full moon I become faster than light!"
'I can't even sense him!' Moka thought, waiting for a chance, which came.
"Just give up and be my girl Moka!" Gin swooped for the attack, which Moka grabbed, "What? How! Wait," Gin turned and looked at the moon, which was behind a cloud, "Aw crap that's not fair, now I can't use my true power!"
"Heh," Tsukune half laughed.
"Even so, I can still show you the power of a werewolf!" Gin went to punch, but was sent flying by a vampire kick, then went crashing through the railing of the roof down to the ground.
"Know your place, Moka huffed, "You better prepare yourself before making a pass on me."
~~
Tsukune sat on the tall tower again with Hunter, staring down as the rest of the newspaper club handed out the first newspaper, all about who the peeping tom really was, "Some view huh?"
"Yeah," Hunter agreed.
"Wonder how things will be going with the rest of the group," Tsukune worried but was still feeling distant from the rest.
"Things will be alright," Hunter said.
~down with the others~
"First edition here," Gon called out, Moka was utting up a poster, Kurumu was pulling out papers, and Killua was standing there and looking cool, Emerald was the one passing out the papers.
"Can I get one?" A girl asked.
"Me too," a guy called.
"May I have a copy?" Another girl called, this one seemed familiar to Emerald.
"Here you are," Emerald handed her a paper, then noticed the horn sticking out of her dark purple hair with a pink stripe, her deep purple eyes scanned the pages as she skimmed the headlines, "You new here?"
"Is it that obvious?" The girl asked as she blushed.
"Not that, it's just that I have a good memory," He tapped his head, "But don't remember seeing you here before."
"Oh well yes, me and my five other friends just transferred here," She said as she folded her news paper.
"Five friends huh?" Emerald smiled, "Pretty lucky to have five friends with you."
"Thank you, for that and the newspaper," She gave him a warm smile that made his heart skip a beat.
"Anytime," Emerald said, but before he could say more another girl walked over and grabbed the first girls arm, she had bright purple hair and dark blue eyes, not to mention a horn on her head too.
"Come on, if don't hurry we may never find him darling," the second girl said.
"Alright i'm coming," the first said.
"Searching for someone?" Emerald kindly inquired.
"Yes, an old friend we wronged in the past," the first girl gave a sad smile.
"Good luck, and it was nice to meet you, i'm Emerald Spire," he said giving a slight bow.
"Nice to meet you too, i'm Twilight Sparkle," She said as she was leaving, "hope we can talk again."
"Yeah," Emerald waved, she seemed so familiar, and made him feel warm, how odd.
