Minato looked out the window, staring at the sky outside of it. He was trying to make sense of what of the conversation he just had with Igor. Apparently, Elizabeth found a way to permanently kill Erebus so that there would be no need for a great seal. Igor explained that whatever Elizabeth found, it had something to do with a place called Yokai Academy. When Minato asked what it was, Igor admitted that Elizabeth didn't tell him anything other than the fact that Minato had to be the one to kill Erebus. So, Elizabeth is now the Great Seal with Minato trying to figure out what she meant. That was how he ended up sitting here, listening to his MP3 Player for the first time since he became the seal. Igor managed to get Minato an Evoker in addition to his MP3 Player. Minato tried to hide his Evoker with his jacket and either the bus driver didn't notice or didn't care. He was still in his old Gekkoukan uniform.

Minato noticed the bus slow down and a brown haired boy get on board, the Persona User and this boy were the only passengers. Once the brown-haired boy sat down, the bus began moving again. It sped forward, it's speed slowly increasing as it entered the tunnel. The bus driver began speaking once the bus fully entered the tunnel.

"You two are enrolling at Yokai Academy?" The Bus Driver asked, speaking for the first time since Minato got on the bus. Minato noticed the ominous voice of the Bus Driver. Minato nodded as both an answer to the Bus Driver's question and due to the encroaching sleepiness. The brown-haired boy answered by saying

"Ah, Yeah." Minato noticed how unsure the boy was about his answer. The Bus Driver laughed raspily.

"In that case, you two had best prepare yourselves now… Hehehe, when we come out of this long tunnel, we'll be right in front of the school and Yokai Academy is a very horrifying school."

After the Bus Driver said this, the brown-haired boy screamed. The scream drowned out Minato's music and when it ended, the Bus emerged in light. The first thing Minato noticed was the large body of red liquid. It made him remember the Dark Hour and he may have gotten more nervous but, the sky lacked the sickly, green color that signaled the Dark Hour at that thought, Minato started debating whether or not water was red here or if it was an ocean of blood. In reality, he didn't like either answer. Then, the blue-haired boy looked around and saw the silhouette of the school. At this point, the brown-haired boy stepped off the bus and started freaking out. As the boy was freaking out, Minato watched the bus back up and leave.

"There's the school." Minato said to the boy who seemed to calm down.

A minute or two after the boy's panic attack he spoke up. "My name is Tsukune Aono." Minato, who was now wearing his earphones around his neck. Minato nodded before introducing himself.

"Minato Arisato." Tsukune stuck his hand out to shake but, Minato had already started walking towards the school and either didn't notice or didn't care. Minato noticed something coming and stepped to the side, resulting in the bike hitting Tsukune instead. Minato watched the two as they landed and Tsukune looked at the girl with pink hair.

"Ow. I'm sorry, I get dizzy from my Anemia. Are you okay?" Tsukune started freaking out at this point, not scared but surprised, silently Minato thought of Junpei and his perverted nature, was this boy similar?

"We're going to be late." Minato spoke as the girl noticed Tsukune bleeding. She was distracted by the blood and didn't even hear She began slowly approaching Tsukune mumbling about the scent of blood. Tsukune looked confused and slightly scared. Definitely more scared than confused when the girl announced she was a vampire and bit him on the neck immediately.

"We should get going." Minato said again, ignoring the event that just transpired.

"My name is Moka Akashiya, I'm sorry for crashing into you." The pink-haired girl said to Tsukune and Minato but, directing the second part at Tsukune. With that, the three of them headed towards school. Moka pushed her bike and talked with Tsukune, occasionally they would ask Minato a question and he would answer.

Minato and Tsukune, as it turns out, all ended up in the same class. Once class began, their homeroom teacher, Ms. Nekonome, began informing them that this was a school for monsters. Minato deduced that from Tsukune's reaction to both this and Moka informing them that she was a vampire that Tsukune had no idea about this fact. That was when a someone near Tsukune spoke up.

"Hey Teacher, would it not be better for us to eat up those puny humans and in the case of beautiful girls, better to molest them?"

At that point, the teacher mentioned how there were no humans here and any found would be sentenced to death. Minato wasn't that worried about that fact. If he did die, he would just have Thanatos revive him and that would get rid of anyone who suspected him of being human. He did wonder about Tsukune though, if his suspicions were right, Tsukune wasn't human. At this point, Moka walked in and apologized for being late, her reason was that she got lost after the entrance ceremony. Ms. Nekonome didn't seem to mind though and told Moka to take a seat. Everyone in the class seemed to be freaking out over how attractive the pink-haired girl was. The Ex-SEES member merely sighed. He had to figure out what the secret to getting rid of Erebus was. Moka started walking down between a row of desks.

"Mo-Moka?" Tsukune asked a bit surprised. Moka looked at him before leaping at him and hugging him tightly. Then she let go and noticed Minato and leapt over a desk to hug him too.

"We're in the same class!" Moka said to Minato and Tsukune cheerfully. Tsukune merely stared back enthralled by her but, Minato was busy looking at all the death glares. He silently cursed himself, he was trying to stay out of everyone's attention. When class ended, Moka wrapped her arm around Tsukune's and tried to grab Minato but, he escaped the Vampire's grasp. Moka didn't ask why, she seemed happy enough with just Tsukune's arm. With that, the trio headed down the hall.

Minato noticed the daggers everyone was glaring at them, more specifically Tsukune. He also heard the whispers, a few whispers were about him, some of the boys whispering about him venomously and a few of the girls pointing and smiling at him. Was he that popular with women? He remembered Toriumi thought so but, she was too old for him and he never really pursued a relationship with anyone, Fuuka and Yukari both liked him as more than friends as well, and eventually Aigis grew feelings for him along with her human emotions. But, he was too focused on clearing Tartarus and stopping the annihilation of all life on Earth to focus on actually developing those feelings for him into anything more. Really, there were very few times when he hung out with anyone outside of Tartarus for any reasons other than Social Links. As he was thinking about this, he noticed the guy from earlier.

It was the ugly guy that suggested killing and raping humans.

"You are called Moka Akashiya, are you not!? I am you classmate, Saizou Komiya! Salutations! By the way, why is a beautiful lady like yourself associating with guys like these?" At this point, Mister Rape and Pillage, also known as Saizou Komiya, picked Tsukune up by the collar and dropped him on the floor. The onlookers started talking to one another. That was when Saizou continued his bragging, "Wouldn't someone like me be far superior to that sort of scummy guy? Why don't we go off somewhere, just the two of us, and have a little fun? Well? why don't we go out for a bit." Saizou asked, at this point, Minato stepped between the two. Ever since he met Fuuka, he had started trying to stop bullies. It was one of the few things he did that didn't involve The Dark Hour or Social Links.

"You should leave." Minato said, his voice didn't give any hints of emotion, nor did his eyes. He merely stated it. The brown-haired bully looked down, a bit of sneer in his eyes. He was a taller than Minato but, shadows were over twice the Persona User's height. The mere fact that this was a little bit taller didn't intimidate Minato. The boy with headphones had already switched to Arahabaki so that he could get the effects from Null Strike. At that point a teacher walked in and Saizou, apparently, wasn't an entire idiot.

"Tch. I will get back at you." Saizou said before walking away.

"Thanks, Arisato-san." Moka said a bit nervous. Minato merely sighed, he had a feeling that wouldn't be the end of it. The rest of the day was rather uneventful. Moka, Tsukune, and Minato talked and eventually the day ended. Minato silently thought of Junpei and Yukari, the two friends he made at his first day at Gekkoukan. He laid down and fell asleep immediately.

Elizabeth was nude and made of stone, hovering between Nyx and an empty space where Erebus was slain. Minato knew that Erebus would soon reform and that Aigis would destroy Erebus again. Minato had to figure out a way to permanently get rid of it before that happened. He now had the suspicion that the only time he could get rid of Erebus was when it had formed. Did Elizabeth tell him that? Was she feeding thoughts to him?

Seal.

The word appeared in his mind but, why the word Seal? Was it referring to the Great Seal or the word itself? Was Elizabeth trying to tell him something? The word just kept appearing. Refusing to leave Minato's thoughts. Minato had to look away, he looked at where Erebus had once been.

Seal.

Minato woke up, the word seal was still stuck in his head. What was she trying to tell him? Minato had to figure out how to permanently get rid of Erebus before Erebus reformed, or at least he assumed it would only work then but, what was it that would only work then?

Minato noticed as he walked down the hall that a lot of students accidentally transformed during the night. He mentally made a note of each monsters voice, he recognised some of them from their gossiping yesterday and it seemed that monsters retained a voice similar or the same as their human form's voice. He had already prepared for class and was ready, now he just leaned on his door listening to his MP3 Player.

Minato noticed a hushed conversation from nearby. He paused his music but kept his headphones on, giving off the illusion that he couldn't hear anything.

"I heard someone is planning on tricking Tsukune." A blob-like boy said.

"Isn't that one of the two guys that was with Akashiya-sama yesterday?" A boy with wings for arms asked, to which the blob boy nodded.

At that point, Minato turned and left, he wasn't sure what to do now. A bit of him wanted to go see what was around the school and mentally map it out and other parts wanted to warn either Tsukune, Moka, or both. Eventually, he decided to look around due to the fact that he didn't know where Moka and Tsukune were. If he did find them, then he would warn them but, until then he would explore the school and the area around it. As the blue-haired boy began exploring. He opted not to listen to music, instead he mentally conversed with his Personae lying in the Sea of Souls. He was walking outside the school when he heard a feminine voice.

"Help me, please… please lend me a hand. I just started feeling ill." Minato noticed a girl on her hands and knees, barely holding herself off the ground on the edge of the forest. She looked ill and in pain. Minato didn't want to reveal his Personae, even if this girl was the only one around. The monsters that attended this school kept, or were supposed to keep, their true forms hidden and Minato decided that he should do the same with his personae.

"Are you alright? Let's get you somewhere safer." Minato said as he bent down and offered the bright blue-haired girl his hand. The girl grabbed it and he helped her up. As the girl was on her feet she started wobbling and began falling, Minato catching her as she fell.

"I-I don't think I can stand on my own." The girl said weakly as Minato helped her stand. The girl leaned on Minato, pressing her shoulder against his the girl started falling to the other side, forcing Minato to place his hand on her arm on the other side.

"Thank you very much. I've always had a weak body." The girl thanked, her voice weak as she did so.

Minato and the blue-haired girl began walking down a path between the trees, headed to the school infirmary. That was when the girl turned and fell on Minato, her rather large breasts pressing against him. She spoke, lightly panting.

"My… my… chest. My chest just started hurting all of the sudden. Hold me tight like this. My chest feels like it's going to burst." She spoke, Minato could feel a hint of arousal under her weak voice. She spent a few seconds pressing herself close against him, "Hey, Minato-kun.. I'm Kurono Kurumu. Please be a good friend to me, okay?" She said, the weakness in her voice gone and now replaced with a tone of kindness, and a hint of control. Unknown to Minato, she cast a spell called 'Allure' as he looked into her eyes. This spell would hypnotise him, something he hadn't been expecting.

Minato didn't speak, he merely stared at her caringly. In the back of his mind, the Personae sealed in him roared in defiance, Minato himself watched his body move, he didn't seem to have any kind of control over himself. He embraced her, his head close to hers. The girl snuggled up to him, not because of him but over the love he was giving her. She was a succubus and giving a succubus love was like giving a vampire blood. Tsukune and Moka walked down the path and saw the interaction.

"Minato…" Moka said, a slight hint of sadness in her voice.

At school that day, Tsukune and Moka were talking about who that girl was and her relationship with Minato.

"He didn't mention him dating anyone yesterday." Tsukune mentioned as they walked down the hall.

"They really looked like lovers. Totally all over each other like that..." Moka replied, the way he held her and looked at her, it didn't look like a couple that just met. "Why don't you go and ask him?" Moka suggested to Tsukune who nodded before going to the blue-haired boy that fell asleep during class.

Once Tsukune was gone, a girl sitting on the railing of the stairs nearby made herself known, "You are a vampire, right?" A girl spoke, shocking the Moka, "That's, at least, what the rumors say, Moka Akashiya-san." The girl that was with Minato earlier spoke.

"You were the one with Minato earlier! When did you…?" In the middle of Moka's question, the blue-haired girl leapt off the railing, landing in front of Moka.

The crowd began wowing over the blue-haired girl's beauty. The blue-haired girl walked by Moka, stopping at Moka's side before whispering to the girl.

"I am the succubus Kurumu Kurono… I have come to defeat you."

The girl walked away from Moka, who turned to watch her before Kurumu turned on her heels and pointed at the Vampire Girl. "I can't stand it anymore! You're the biggest eyesore in the way of my great plan."

"Pl-Plan?" Moka asked, hesitant and confused.

The succubus merely laughed before lifting her right arm up and placing it behind her head and holding her left hand over her chest, her beauty emanating from her as she posed like a model. The boys watching her adored her, although she secretly placed an Allure spell over them both for the admiration and so they wouldn't remember her plan.

"Yes, my plan is to make every member of the male student body at this academy completely become my slave. The Yokai Academy Harem Transformation Plan!" The succubus cackled before the lust for power in her eyes switched to malice and she glared and the pink-haired vampire.

"My plan was perfect! I should have had every guy at the academy a slave to my beauty right from the start! However!" Kurumu was inches from Moka's face at this point. "Moka Akashiya, the guys at this academy are dreaming about you rather than me! I'm not letting you get away with this, I could never lose in a battle of feminine charm!" Kurumu yelled at the pink-haired girl. Then, she continued.

"That's why I've decided to prove I can defeat you, I'll show you I'm better than you by stealing Minato-kun and making him fall in love with me so badly that he would die for me with a smile, and once he loves me, I'll steal Tsukune Aono from you." The succubus had a bit of a grin forming at this point. Moka, in the meantime was telling the succubus that they didn't have anything to do with this but, either Kurumu didn't hear Moka or didn't care.

"I knew it from the moment me and Minato were close earlier… he had a really good scent, just like a human, and I saw you drinking Tsukune's blood earlier." The grin the blue-haired girl had was evident in her happy, arrogant tone as she continued, "You're using them as 'food' aren't you? Ahahaha, you're face when they are taken from you will be a sight to see." The succubus laughed at Moka, who merely had a scared look.

"No… I'm not using them, I'm…" The girl muttered, loud enough for Kurumu to hear and the succubus had a triumphant look in her eyes. Sure, she drank Tsukune's blood a bit but, he wasn't just food to her, and she hadn't seen or tasted Minato's blood. It was at this point that Tsukune emerged, practically dragging the half-awake Minato, who was rubbing sleep out of his left eye.

"Moka-san, I managed to wake Minato up!" After stopping Tsukune was rather shocked to find that he was no longer holding Minato's hand. When he turned to see what happened to the boy, he found Minato a couple steps away being embraced by Kurumu.

"Oooh, It's Minato-kun! Thank you so much for earlier!" The girl said as she hugged Minato tightly, pressing her breasts against his shoulder.

"You're being tricked Minato! Hurry up and get that girl off you! That Kurumu isn't really your friend!" Moka yelled in warning to Minato who was awake but, was still a bit drowsy.

"...How awful… How can you say such things?" Kurumu managed to make it look like she was genuinely hurt, the succubus was a great actress. "Aah… I'm getting dizzy again… We've got to go to the infirmary." The girl fell, leaning on Minato more so that his arm was between her breasts. Her eyes looked up at Minato. Then the Persona User looked down at the girl. The moment their eyes met the ex-SEES member just fell under this girls charming spell.

"P-Please, believe me… That girl is dangerous, Minato! You're going to be eaten by her!" Moka warned but, her warning fell on deaf ears. Her words were useless against Kurumu's allure spell.

"Moka, you're not allowed to say that while you're drinking Tsukune dry." Minato said, possibly the longest sentence he's said since Moka met him, his voice that normally had no emotion behind it had a sprinkle of arrogance, or maybe it was love for Kurumu. The more Moka was around Minato, the more questions that popped up. Even though Moka knew he wasn't himself, she was hurt by his words. She cared about Tsukune, he wasn't just a snack and Minato was her friend too. A tear started forming in her eye before she grabbed Tsukune's hand and the two of them took off.

"I did it! I finally did it! I made that annoying Moka cry! Did you see that pitiful face! I can't take it! Now, to make Minato my slave and then start enslaving Tsukune and she'll be be all alone!" Kurumu cheered in her mind, while she may only be thinking that on the outside she was just as excited, her tail that looked like a heart at the end was bouncing up and down.

"That was rude of me." Minato thought to himself. He still had no control over his body but, he did switch to Asura. The Universe Arcana allowed him to switch and activate Persona without the need for an Evoker, which was rather convenient but, he did want to use his Evoker soon, for nostalgia's sake. But, it was thanks to the Universe Arcana that he could switch Persona without the need for control of his body.

The blue-haired Persona wielder felt something plump and soft press against his face.

"Aren't you sad Minato-kun? Sorry… Kurumu will make it up to you and make you feel all better."

The girl pulled back and sat down on the bed, her breasts no longer obscuring Minato's vision as she looked at him. She started fidgeting nervously and crossing and uncrossing her legs. She placed her arms together, making her large breasts seem even better. "This will be my first time." She blushed before standing up, Minato's body did the same, despite his protests. Minato placed his arms around the Succubus' neck, their foreheads touching. Her soft lips met his in a kiss, her first kiss.

"My first kiss and my first slave! The allure is complete!" She thought as she continued kissing Minato.

"What's going on?" Tsukune asked, he and Moka were sitting on the steps to the academy building. Moka's still had a few tears on her face that Tsukune wiped away.

"Why was Minato being so mean to me?" Moka said, sobbing once during the sentence.

"Naive one… Minato is being manipulated." The Rosary spoke and both Tsukune and Moka were shocked at the Rosary chained to Moka's neck. It started floating as it Telepathically spoke to them, "It's called a charm. It's a work of sorcery which turns the opposite sex into your slave."

Moka was still shocked that the Rosary was talking and voiced her surprise, "What's going on… a voice is coming from the Rosary." Tsukune was equally shocked, it's more than likely that he was even more shocked than Moka.

"At this rate, I believe you are too late." The Rosary announced. Tsukune and Moka both immediately sprung up and began sprinting towards the infirmary.

The door to the infirmary swung open and Moka and Tsukune watched from the doorway. Minato and Kurumu were on the bed now, Kurumu had pulled him onto her and they were kissing still.

"I believe we are too late." The Rosary spoke solemnly.

The Succubus let go off Minato and stood up. "I got Minato, now all I need is to enslave Tsukune and I win." Kurumu said before grinning. Tsukune shut his eyes tightly and this greatly angered Kurumu.

"What makes her so much better than me!? I'm going to destroy everything that has anything to do with her starting with him!" The Succubus roared as bat-like wings sprouted from her back and her finger-nails extended into claws. She flew at Tsukune but, Moka intervened by pushing the flying Kurumu and yelling, "No!"

The succubus merely said "What?" and screamed as she flew out the window. Clearly, the pink-haired vampire didn't know her own strength even while in her sealed form! Moka begged Tsukune to get Minato and run. Even if he was enslaved maybe someone knew how to save him! Kurumu flew back, hovering outside the window before speaking.

"Hmpf.. To be thrown so far… a vampire's power is really something… Come down here… and I'll kill the both of you together!" Moka leapt out the window and Tsukune followed, he would have to take off her Rosary for her. He gripped Minato's hand tightly, he wouldn't let the blue-haired boy wander off.

"Take off my Rosary! Take off the Rosary on my chest, Tsukune! I can't take it off myself." Moka ordered, Tsukune moved his free hand towards the Rosary as he heard Kurumu start swooping down, mocking them and laughing. The girl swooped down and Tsukune and Moka barely dodged. Tsukune barely made it and had to let go off Minato, who ducked under the swipe attack.

Tsukune panicked when seeing the tree had been sliced through like butter and Moka hurried Tsukune to take it off or they were going to be killed. Tsukune complied and yanked on the Rosary and it came off.

Moka's chest and rear became bigger, making her more curvy. Her hair turned silver-white and her eyes became a blood red color with slit pupils. Her canines extended into long fangs as she unleashed her true form. She became a true Vampire.

Minato had not seen this form before but, Tsukune had seen it last night. He had tried to leave and the Monstrel named Saizou from their class that almost got in a fight with Minato had gotten his ass kicked by Vampire Moka and the girl made Tsukune decide to stay. Minato didn't seem to be bothered.

"What's going on?" Minato asked Tsukune who stared dumbfounded. Kurumu was hovering out of Moka's grasp a bit frightened by the new aura surrounding Moka.

"I thought you were enslaved by Kurumu." Tsukune asked, surprise in his voice. Minato shook his head.

"I couldn't get rid of it but I could protect myself against it in the future. It wore off while she was kissing me and I regained control of my body." Minato explained, Tsukune merely looked confused before shaking it off.

"I took off Moka's Rosary so that she could transform into her true form." Tsukune explained before continuing, "Now she's going to kick Kurumu's butt so that we won't have to worry about her." Tsukune finished and Minato merely watched the battle.

While Tsukune was explaining this to Minato, Kurumu was yelling at Vampire Moka, explaining that she couldn't lose and how Succubi seek a destined encounter among the men they tempt, and that they had to find that one man out of many to their destined one in order to keep their small species from dying out. That was why Kurumu had to get her revenge.

"... So, what are you going to do? You can't let me do this, so you dare bear your fangs at the likes of me? Frail, egotistical woman… realize your place!" Vampire Moka growled. Kurumu swung at the vampire but, she was too slow. Moka even commented at this fact. Moka grabbed the Succubus by her tail and slammed her into the ground creating a crater where Kurumu impacted. The Succubus gasped in pain.

"Calm yourself, that attack was too straightforward. Am I too difficult for you? Though you act like a little devil, you're just a naive little girl!" Moka said as she walked forward, her long silver hair swaying as she did so. A sadistic grin grew on Moka's face and malice filled her eyes, "Ohhh! I'll make it so you can never stand up to me again!"

Tears started rolling down Kurumu's face as the vampire approached. The succubus was terrified of the Vampiric Moka. Minato walked between them.

Minato switched to Kohryu in case this Silver-haired Moka struck at him.

"What is this? Move! Was this not the woman who attempted to enslave you and may have attempted to kill you?" Moka asked glaring at the Blue-haired Persona user.

"I can't let you kill a living person like that." Minato spoke, no emotion showing in his voice, "Besides, can't you hear the nervousness and desperation hidden deep in her voice?" Minato asked, if only people would listen. If people truly listened and understood one another then Erebus wouldn't exist in the first place.

"I expect you to be worth the trouble, boy." The Silver-haired beauty growled before walking over to Tsukune and reattaching the Rosary, which in turn made her revert to her old, pink-haired self.

Author Note: This chapter wasn't my favorite, or my best really. It's just there was a lot of pre-written dialogue to have to trudge through. Hopefully, this will be come less and less as the story progresses and Minato makes a bigger impact. The overall story/plot will be based around the manga more so than the anime since the manga both has a better story and I don't have to remember what time at what episode I'm at. So, thanks to anyone who stuck around.

On an additional note, I plan to make each chapter 5,000 words or somewhere close to that. This chapter was about 30 words short of 5k and I felt like the end of the Kurumu introduction volume was a good place to end it. If you have any advice or constructive criticism please give it.

(Who am I kidding, nobody will read this.)
