Yo, It's KhemAnnihilator1000 here with Chapter 4 Part 2. I know that this chapter took a lot longer than my last few updates but I have a pretty hectic schedule so I can only afford to spend about 3-4 hours a day max on writing these chapters and most of that time is just me brainstorming about how to actually set these things up. I've gotta say that this chapter was by FAR the toughest to write yet, and if you didn't notice, it is also the longest. I was almost going to just make a Chapter 4 Part 3 but I decided to just keep it all in Part 2 instead. While it's not a completely original chapter like Part 1, it is a mostly original spin on a cannon occurrence. So it took a lot of thinking and brainstorming to make this Chapter into an acceptable sequel to Part 1.

Regardless though, as usual, I worked my ass off to make this chapter as great as I could. I hope you guys enjoy it, and remember, constructive criticism is always welcomed. If you think I should be handling a certain character better, or maybe I need to work on my descriptive writing (because I honestly do) drop some notes in the reviews and I'll look over them and see what I can do. Well here it is:

Chapter 4 Part 2

6:45 AM

All things considered, Yokai Academy had an absolutely amazing sunrise. It was a brilliant golden orange that shone over the trees outside the Girl's Dormitory with a beautiful intensity!

Moka Akashiya was an early riser, she always had been, she had already taken care of her morning duties, she had brushed her teeth, bathed using her special herbs, and washed her hair with her trademarked shampoo that made her hair smell like Strawberry Shortcake. Needless to say, Moka's hygiene was impeccable.

Moka was currently in a pair of green shorts that were thigh high and a loose pink tank top. She sighed contently at the beautiful colors that bathed the School area in a bright light.

'Oh I just love watching the sunrise, it's kind of ironic since I'm a Vampire, but, it's just so beautiful' she thought to herself as she draped her body over the window. Her elbows were on each side of the window while her hands held her face upright as she stared at the horizon.

~SNAP~

She suddenly gasped as she was temporarily blinded by a flash that seemed to come out of nowhere. 'Did…..someone take a picture of me?'

She looked to where it seemed the flash had come from only to see a patch of brown hair hiding behind a large tree

She glared at the obvious outline of a student who had clearly taken a picture of her. Ok, maybe it wasn't such a good idea to wear a small, tight-fitting tank top while she was looking out of a window, but wasn't she at least entitled to her privacy in her own room for god's sake.

"Ugh, I know you're out there, you pervert!" She angrily yelled out causing the brown patch of hair to twitch in fear and duck back into the tree. Moka quickly closed her window and blinds! She walked in front of her mirror while she wrapped her arms around her hourglass figure, she looked at it for a second, taking in its shape. She didn't really understand what the hype was about, every guy in school seemed to treat her like some sort of Goddess walking among them. Was she really that pretty?

She sighed as she pushed those thoughts out of her head, they quickly moved to Tsukune. He was so good to her, when she first came to this School she had been so insecure. Then she met him, and with a whisk of his magical tongue, he had made her feel so much better about herself. Tsukune, Riley, Huey, they were the first friends she had ever had. Even the stoic big brother of their group, Huey, seemed to have finally warmed up to her by now.

As she started to put her uniform on, she thought of Kurumu, the two had no doubt had a rocky start. She giggled slightly when she thought of their common verbal arguments. Pretty much, one of them would give a passive-aggressive insult to one another, most of the time it was Kurumu, but she'd be lying to herself if she said that she didn't start a few. Like the day they had met Yukari and Mizore. When Kurumu began to talk about Riley, she couldn't help but knock her down a peg or two. It was always good-natured fun of course, she couldn't imagine being around the blue-haired Succubus without getting into an argument with her about something.

After she had gotten her uniform on, she looked at her alarm clock, which read 6:55AM, and walked to her door to leave her room. As she began to descend down the stairs and into the main lobby she heard a voice that made her smile and slightly cringe, knowing she was about to be ripped on.

"Well, well, well, if it isn't Little Miss Moka!"

Moka looked back to the staircase she had just walked down, only to find the very same sassy Succubus she was just thinking about. She was already dressed in her uniform, she walked down the stairs to her with her arms crossed under her huge bust and a shit-eating grin on her face. She walked so close to her pink-haired rival that the two were only inches apart, each of them smirking slightly at their standoff.

"So, Little Miss Perfect, as usual, you look absolutely stunning this morning. Almost as good as I do after three days without sleep and a bad mani-pedi"

"Well if you look this tacky on a regular basis then maybe you really do need more beauty sleep, it'd do you a lot of good you know" Moka retorted!

The two smirking girls continued to leer at each other for a few seconds more, before bursting out laughing at each other's jabs as they walked out of the Girl's Dormitory with big smiles on their faces.

Kurumu continued to smile as she looked at the giggling pinkette, "I've gotta say Moka, your delivery is improving by the day"

Moka blushed at her praise and began to touch her two pointer fingers together shyly, "O-Oh, you really think so, I've been working on it but I'm still no match for the guys, I can only get Tsukune speechless if I bring up something dirty but that doesn't seem to work on Riley or Huey"

Kurumu giggled at how the girl who had just sassed her with the utmost confidence seemed to revert back to her bashful self almost instantly afterward, "Well duh, that's why we have to practice on each other, just you wait Moka, someday we'll be the one's with the last laugh, Yahoo-hoo" she remarked as she twirled around with an excited smile on her face.

The two friends walked down the pavement to go to one of the many unused Outdoor Cafeteria Table Areas. It was a Pavilion with 2 sets of tables and a flowerbed that surrounded the area. No one really went there much so it had become a place for the group to meet up before class every once and a while and hang out before they had to go their separate ways for the day after their first class where everyone but Yukari was present.

Moka had noticed that Kurumu was particularly cheery this morning, she was glad that she was so happy, things had been looking up recently. The number of friends they had was quickly increasing with the addition of Yukari and Mizore. They were each a handful to deal with, in their own ways but they were good people, and she enjoyed their company all the same.

"You seem really happy today Kurumu, it's really good to see you so cheery this morning," Moka said as they approached the empty table on the pavilion.

Kurumu just continued to skip happily as the two of them jumped to sit on the top of the table, "Well….Why wouldn't I be, it's a beautiful day" she said softly before averting her eyes with a small shy blush on her face.

"Things have been going really good for me lately, I mean I have friends, real friends, like you Moka, not just a bunch of horndogs who are only around me to get in my pants, I've even met my Destined One…...and I love him so much you know, he hasn't said it back yet, but I know he loves me too!" The girl almost whispered out with a bashful smile on her face.

She began to tear up a little bit before she looked at the warmly smiling Moka and smiled brightly herself "It's just…..I've never been so happy before. Moka listen….I know we got off on the wrong foot when we met, but you're the first female friend I've ever had. And I really cherish this time we spend together, I know I can be a real pain sometimes, I just hope that you can still stand being around me"

Moka gasped at Kurumu's teary confession, before smiling happily, tears in her own eyes began to form, "Kurumu, you're an amazing friend and don't ever think that's not true, you're always a blast to hang out with. Sure we argue sometimes but it's always in good fun right! You're the first girl I've ever had the chance to hang with too. I didn't have any friends before coming here, I went to a human School and nobody believed in Monsters so they were all so mean to me there. I felt so alone, so worthless, but then I met Tsukune, Riley, Huey, and you, Kurumu…. I just want you to know that…...I'm really glad I met you guys!"

The two formerly lonely girls stared at each other in awe for a moment before crying tears of joy and hugging each other, both of them happy to finally not be so lonely anymore.

After another few seconds of teary-eyed giggles, the two ecstatic girls broke their hug! Moka looked down at her phone, seeing the clock read 7:10AM!

"Hey Kurumu, we still have nearly an hour until Ms. Nekonome's class, why don't we call Tsukune and Riley down here a little bit earlier. Then we can all hang out together" The pink-haired Vampire cheerfully asked, making the still smiling Succubus perk up in interest.

"That's a great idea Moka, way to use your head every once in a while" Kurumu quipped with a friendly smirk on her face.

Moka laughed before smirking back as she retorted with an equally light jab, "Well at least when I hit puberty all of my brain cells didn't go straight to my tatas"

Kurumu chuckled before coming back with another quip, "Oh of course they didn't, they went to your feet instead, bigfoot"

Moka looked at her with a self-conscious gasp before reverting to her shy demeanor, "W-what, what's wrong with my feet, they aren't that big are they?" She says with a panicked look in her eyes, making Kurumu deadpan, she still had a ways to go.

She grabbed her friends frantically moving hands and put them in her own palms soothingly, "Honey, your feet are as pretty as a ballerina's, you weren't supposed to take it seriously" she said as she began to laugh at the pout on Moka's face.

"Whatever, I'm calling Tsukune, he's probably with Riley by now so I'll ask him to bring him along too ok!" Moka said with a dreamy smile on her face as she thought about her Tsukune.

Kurumu raised an eyebrow at the fact that she didn't mention Huey, "What about Huey, aren't you going to invite him?" she asked curiously.

"Don't worry, when he and Mizore get here, we'll see him as well" she said with a reassuring smile on her face.

As Moka began to dial in Tsukune's number, Kurumu chuckled slightly when she thought about the two quietest members of their group. 'I swear, those two are totally made for each other, still I wonder why Huey seems to push her away so often, he clearly has a thing for her, and he's all she ever really talks about. It just seems like it's unnecessarily complicated if you ask me' she thought to herself as she heard Tsukune's voice on the line.

###############

6:45AM

It couldn't have been a more beautiful morning at Yokai Academy; the weather was resting at a perfect 70 Degrees, meaning it wasn't too hot nor too cold. When the three teens climbed into the window, which was in retrospect about an hour and 45 minutes ago, they didn't shut the blinds to the window so the sun shined into the dorm room with a brilliant golden glare. Indicating the start of another productive and hopefully not in any way dangerous, day. The Boy's dormitory was already bustling with activity. After getting some good rest, students of literally all shapes and sizes were preparing for the school day. Getting up for School at a quarter of 7 every morning was hard for everyone, especially since considering the fact that this was a boarding school with a fully stocked shopping mall, multiple buildings to hang out in, and regardless if they were Monsters or not, a bunch of hormonal teenagers with very loosely enforced peer visiting hours, kids tended to be up pretty late.

Unfortunately….. Needless to say, It had been an exceptionally long night for Huey, Riley, and Tsukune, and not the fun kind!

~RIIINNGG!, RIIINNGG!~

As the loud and obnoxious sound of Huey Freeman's alarm clock rang throughout the room, Huey, Riley, and Tsukune awoke from their deep slumber with loud gasps. As it continued to ring, the three teens groaned audibly, practically in sync due to their shared exhaustion.

Huey opened his eyes, instantly regretting it when he was hit with both the strong glare of the sun and a sore body that seemed to vehemently protest the resolution his mind had already made to get up. He was seriously considering just ditching the purple-haired beauty and making up an excuse for it later, but his ethical side quickly pushed that idea down the drain. He had already promised that he would walk her to class every day for the time being so that was what he would do, it had actually been something a part of him looked forward to, she had a strangely calming effect on him, maybe it was her soft melodic voice, or how much she seemed to care for him but whatever it was, during the last few days it was a welcome feeling to the almost constant anxiety he had been feeling before about their current situation. But today was a different story, he wasn't gonna suffer alone, he'd be damned if Tsukune and Riley got to sleep till noon while he had to suck it up and go to class.

"Yo, turn that shit off man, you know a nigga like you need as much beauty sleep as he can get," Riley said sluggishly as he pulled his blanket over his head, attempting to block out the sound and sunlight as much as possible.

"Have fun taking Mizore to class Huey, we'll see you guys at lunch, Scout's Honor" Tsukune muffled out comically, despite the loud alarm he still hadn't moved a muscle, he even still had saliva leaking out of his mouth while the left side of his face was mushed up against his covers

Huey glared at the two boys who had the nerve to sass him in his own room, after taking a deep breath to compose himself, he began to slowly stand up. He quickly went to turn the ear-splitting alarm on his dresser off before walking over to his window and opening it, immediately, he felt the sun's warm rays mixing with the cool breeze perfectly as he stared into the distance with a tiny serene smile on his face.

Riley and Tsukune let out pleasant sighs when they realized that Huey had turned off the alarm. As they began to get comfortable again, they found themselves quickly dozing off, their bodies clearly desperate to have the opportunity to fully reclaim the sleep they lost the night before. Unfortunately for them, they wouldn't get the chance to do so as they felt Huey lightly kick them in their ribs causing them to gasp in pain and surprise at the sudden blow.

Huey merely looked down at the two glaring teens, "What? You didn't think I was gonna have to get up in the morning without waking y'all lazy asses up too, did you" Huey told them with an exceptionally tired look in his eye.

Tsukune groaned in irritation but began to slowly rise, he decided to acquiesce, it wasn't like this was his room anyway, he had already slept in Huey's room for the night so he had no right to stay if Huey wanted him to leave.

Riley, on the other hand, wasn't moving, he merely set his head back down on his makeshift pillow and slowly said "I ain't going no where nigga, if you want me to get up you gonna have to throw my ass out that window"

Huey glared at his difficult brother as he began to put on a white undershirt before retorting, "That can be arranged, but I think I've got a better idea" he said with a small smirk as he reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. He went to his gallery and filed out an old picture he had been saving for a situation like this. Once he found it, he smirked as he walked over to the still stationary dreadhead.

"Alright Riley, you know, I didn't want to do this, but I guess if you don't want to get up then it looks like I'll just have to show Kurumu what you look like in a skirt"

As Riley heard the word skirt, his eyes widened in terror, he had an awful feeling he already knew what picture his brother had on his phone.

Like a snap, Riley was up as he tried to grab the phone in his brother's hand but he was too slow, Huey sidestepped him with a satisfied smirk on his face at his brother's embarrassed expression.

Riley, who was now mostly awake, glared at his uppity brother, "You better stop playing around Huey, you know I ain't no fag. I was a kid, how was I supposed to know the nigga was pushing sweet boy merch"

Huey began to grab a towel to get ready to go to the showers before retorting, "I don't know man, I mean when I was 8, I knew for a fact that wearing a bra and skirt was pretty damn gay, It's cool though, remember what I said, If it feels natural and that's what you're into then go for it"

As the two brothers continued to trade jabs, Tsukune had finally gotten out of his sweaty jumpsuit and put back on his nightclothes from yesterday. He audibly sighed when he realized how sore his body felt.

'In hindsight, maybe jumping off a high staircase to tackle a maniac wasn't such a good idea' he thought to himself as he tried to stretch out his back to alleviate the pain slightly.

"Hey guys, I'm heading back to my dorm now, thanks again for letting me crash here last night Huey," Tsukune said with a yawn as he began to approach the door, making the two still arguing boys look up at him, having forgotten he was there.

Huey nodded his head before crossing his arms with a raised eyebrow, glaring slightly, "Yeah no problem man, but the same thing that goes for Riley goes for you too. I better see your ass at that lunch table this afternoon. If you niggas leave me to have to deal with your hyperactive girlfriends all day, I'm coming back up here to shoot the both of you"

Tsukune paled at his declaration, "Uh….yeah sure, I'll be out of my room by that time at the latest" he assured him as he quickly made his exit.

'Man, what the hell am I getting myself into here, I've been here no more than a month and a half and I've already been bitten by a Vampire, backhanded by an Orc, and in a fistfight with a superpowered Lieutenant, I still can't believe I actually took him out, I guess it's not all bad, if everything goes well, by the time I graduate from this school I'll be a total badass!' Tsukune thought to himself while he walked to the floor staircase, trying to make sense of it all.

'Like dealing with the psycho students here wasn't enough trouble….now we have to deal with a Classified Government Agency from the human world!'

'Who knows when the Headmaster is going to call on us again to do his dirty work. There's no turning back anymore is there, we're in deep now aren't we' Tsukune began to shiver in fear slightly, the full weight of his current position bearing down on him for the first time. This wasn't a game anymore, he, along with Huey and Riley were at the intersection of a centuries old war between the two species. To make things worse, they were merely pawns! They lacked the knowledge to understand the true magnitude of how deep this seemed to run. What really is Sector Yokai! Who's pulling the strings, how many more of these guys are there, how deep does their influence run, and what other abilities are they privy to? There were so many questions they didn't have answers to.

He still couldn't believe that he was even really here, at a Monster School, and he was still alive. Hell, he was more than alive, he was the bane of the entire student male body. He still vividly remembered the first kiss he and Moka had shared a couple of weeks ago, it was so raw and passionate that he thought he would go crazy. Although In all honesty, his relationship with Moka was confusing to say the least. Moka's libido seemed to be inexplicably linked with her hunger for his blood. Sometimes it was pretty sweet he had to admit but other times it was annoying how much she seemed to want to suck him dry so she could get her fix. He would often end up tired after each day because she would drink so much from him, it made him wonder sometimes what she was really attached to. Him or his Blood?

Tsukune was so lost in thought, he hadn't even realized he was already outside his dorm room, he sighed as he opened the door.

"Even when I'm running off of less than two hours of sleep I still can't stop thinking about Moka" He whispered to himself as he laid on his bed and began to close his eyes.

As his chaotic thoughts began to quiet, he quickly realized he was becoming comfortable again, 'If only Moka was here with me right now, we could totally just ditch class and just sleep together all day …. buuuttt, as much as I'd like that, no way in hell do I want her sucking on my neck when I'm asleep or something, and not the fun way'

A mirthful smile found it's way on his face as he began to finally doze off, he was still absolutely exhausted, his body was sore and weak after exerting himself so much in that fight, that added to the fact that he was up until 5 in the morning, after a long night of stress he was finally falling asleep…

"RIINNGGGG"

Tsukune's eyes shot open as wide as dinner plates before letting out a loud groan of irritation, he glared at the still ringing phone with vitriol. "Ugh, for Fucks Sake, who the hell is it" he whispers angrily as he slowly leans over to his nightstand to find a picture of Moka pouncing on him as she wrapped her arms around his neck with the widest smile on her face. Moka had asked Huey to take a picture of the two for their contact picture. She had jumped on him unexpectedly so he had a fairly caught off guard smile on his face. when Huey took the picture, she was already in midair, making it look that much more photogenic.

His gaze softened slightly, the sight of her adorably innocent smile melted his angry exterior significantly, he sighed and decided to pick up the phone.

"Ngh…...Hello" Tsukune answered sluggishly with a sizable frown on his face.

"Good Morning Tsukune, Kurumu and I are at the pavilion right now, you should bring Riley and come meet us so we can hang out a little before class"

Tsukune sighed again, he could practically feel the bubbly smile on her face, he looked over to his alarm clock, which read 7:09AM! How the hell could she be so energetic all the time?

"Uh….I don't know Moka, I'm pretty tired right now you know"

He heard her gasp over the line "But Tsukune, please, I really want to see you right now, I feel like we've all been so busy with our classes the last few days that we haven't been able to really hang out in a while." The girl begged him, making Tsukune sigh again, he felt his resolve quickly crumbling at the sound of her dejected voice.

'Damn it…..Riley was right, she's as crafty as a snake, I hate it when she does this, no, yes….NO, no, no I'm not letting her get me this time, I just kicked a crazed Lieutenants ass there's no way I'm going to lose to-'

"Please Tsukune….I-I really miss you"

Tsukune's eyes twitched at that, her tone was saddened but it had a hint of flirtatiousness in it. She knew exactly what she was doing by taking that tone.

Tsukune began to blush furiously as he felt his resolve literally crumble in the span of three seconds.

"FINE, I'M COMING MOKA" He yelled as he quickly hung up the phone and flopped back onto his bed, now physically and emotionally drained!

'Sigh…..how is it that with all of the crazy things going on in my life right now, the thing that stresses me out the most is a girl!' He thought to himself angrily as he mentally prepared himself for the verbal lashing he would no doubt receive by calling his equally tired dread-headed friend.

################

As Huey made his way over to the door he looked at the slowly changing Riley with slight contempt, Riley was currently putting his tank top back on and noticed his glare. He had no issue glaring back with equal intensity.

"Oh, so you like looking at niggas while they puttin they shirts on huh, Nigga you Gay!" Riley said as he finished putting his tank top on.

Huey merely rolled his eyes in annoyance, "Shut the hell up Riley, it's too early to be dealing with your stupidity, Hurry up! I don't wanna see you here when I get back" he simply remarked as he took his leave with his shower materials.

As Riley left his brother's dorm, he took a deep breath! Last night was supposed to be fun, and in small doses it certainly was. He had a great time with Kurumu last night, they spent their time laughing and joking about all kinds of things. They had a really good thing going on in his eyes, He sat on her bed frame while she sat in his lap and fed him her homemade cookies…..through her kisses of course!

A content smile found itself on his face as he thought of the blue-haired beauty. 'That girl man, if she keep bakin like that, imma have to start calling her Aunt Jemima. That girl loves me don't she, If I'm really her Destined One like she says, then she probably want to spend the rest of her life with me…..but I'm still so young man, am I ready for this shit'

His smile faulted slightly when Tsukune's angry words filled his head.

"What if Kurumu knew you were human….would she still save you?"

As much as he tried to resist it, the doubt wouldn't let up in his mind. How would Kurumu really react if he told her he was human, would she still even like him….or would she want him dead like the rest, simply for the crime of being born Human.

As he walked up the stairs to his own floor, he began to think about their current situation. He and Huey had been in plenty of fucked up situations before, but never like this. This wasn't just a Nigga Moment gone wrong between two old men or a fucked up "historical" theme park trapping them in enslavement, they had leveled up, this was a Nigga Moment between two entire species', and he, Huey and Tsukune we're right smack dab in the middle of it. Last Night made it painfully clear that there was no right side to this war. Everyone was out for their survival first and foremost.

As he walked past one of the bathrooms on his floor his eyebrows raised when he saw a kid with a zombie-like face looking into the mirror, laughing with a friend who had a beak for a mouth. He just sighed in resignation, he had grown used to seeing that kind of stuff in the morning but it didn't make it any less weird.

'Damn man, sometimes I forget how fucked up a lot of these niggas faces really is' he thought to himself as he entered his own dorm.

He walked over to his bed and instantly jumped on it, landing with his chest facing the ceiling and his arms wide open. He sighed to himself again as his mind replayed the moment when he killed that man with vivid clarity. He hadn't been able to stop thinking about it, he had taken a man's life for no other reason than a sadistic Headmaster's whim.

He looked at his alarm clock, seeing it read 7:00AM! He was still insanely tired so he decided to put it all behind him and try and get some sleep. After about 10 minutes he began to doze off. Finally, his mind felt clear and he could sleep. Nothing could stop him now!

"RIINNGGGG"

Riley's reddened eyes snapped open, he angrily went to check his phone, only to find that it was Tsukune of all people! He picked it up and yelled at his friend angrily.

"NIGGA WHY THE FUCK IS YOU CALLING ME?"

"LISTEN! Moka and Kurumu are waiting for us at the Pavilion, I need you to come with me" He heard Tsukune yell in irritation over the phone.

Riley chuckled out a scoff, "You gonna have to tell that bitch to kick rocks cause I ain't goin nowhere, I don't even care if Kurumu is there, I don't need my face titty deep, I need sleep!"

"Hey, don't call her a bitch Riley" Tsukune stated angrily over the phone, making the dreadhead massage his temples before sighing apologetically.

"My bad man, you know I don't mean no disrespect, Moka's my girl and all, but I'm tired yo, my filter is all the way back in Chicago right now"

"I get it, it's been a long night but they asked for you too, and If I have to deal with them then there's no way in hell I'm letting you skip out on me!" Tsukune exclaimed with an exasperated tone.

Riley raised an eyebrow at that, "Whatchu mean you "have" to go, you don't "have" to do nothin. Just tell her ass you was up all night studying or something, she'll believe you"

"What….I can't just lie to her" Tsukune gasped over the phone making Riley sigh again.

"What the fuck do you think we gonna have to do when she sees us, we walking with limps, we got bags under our eyes, and we didn't shower before we fell out last night so we probably smell like Winston Jerome's asscrack! We Gonna LIE!" Riley told him with an irritated look on his face. He could practically hear Tsukune whimpering over the line.

"Come on Riley pleassee, we don't even have to go to class we can just hang there for a while, walk them to class and head back to our rooms! Don't you think Kurumu would be hurt if you just blew her off like that!"

Riley's glare couldn't help but soften at the mention of his girl, "You just love bringing her up to guilt-trip me into some shit don't you."

He could practically feel Tsukune cringe at his wording, their fight last night still fresh in his mind. "Uh, sorry about that"

"Whatever man….wash your ass and then meet me at the front of the building," Riley said before quickly hanging up the phone before Tsukune could get another word out.

Riley sighed as he laid on his bed, staring up at his ceiling. He was struggling to find the energy to actually get up out of bed, what was he thinking letting Tsukune talk him into this.

###############

7:35AM

As Riley and Tsukune sluggishly walked up the banister to the Pavilion that Moka and Kurumu were sitting at, they unknowingly shared a thought once the girls' excited gazes met their steadily approaching forms.

'I'm Not Ready for This!'

"TSUKUNE"

"RILEY"

Riley and Tsukune didn't get a chance to even blink, by the time they got to the top step they were already in crushing hugs from Kurumu and Moka. They cringed in discomfort at what would usually get the blood pumping down low.

Riley's head was quickly pulled into his all-time favorite place, normally this would be what he thought was a great start to his day. Kurumu's breasts were soft, supple, and they always smelled like Blueberry Pie. He loved it when she pulled him in like this, but this time, all they were to him were pillows.

Kurumu's eyebrow widened at both his lack of a response and the fact that his weight was beginning to lean on her. He seemed like he was falling asleep right in her chest, when she looked to her right to see Moka try and bite an exhausted-looking Tsukune, only to have him catch her chin comically, she knew that something was seriously wrong with this picture.

Moka's eyes widened at the cavalier way he stopped her from getting her "fix". She looked up at his face only to reel back in shock at how sunken his eyes were.

"Tsukune, you don't look so good, are you alright" Moka gasped in fear as he tried to give her a smile, but the contrast with his dead-looking eyes made it look like something out of a horror movie.

"Never better Moka" he slowly drawled out, making Moka put her hand on his face in concern!

Kurumu pulled Riley back out of her bosom and gasped slightly at his barely conscious expression. He had bags under his eyes, much like Tsukune; the dead tired look in his eyes practically mirrored the brunette boy.

Moka and Kurumu practically dragged the two boys over to the Pavilion Table, and sat them down next to each other.

"Holy crap guys, you look like you haven't slept all night" Kurumu said, concerned as the two boys sighed and elaborated.

Tsukune discreetly pinched himself to wake up from his autopilot state, the pain was slightly effective "We haven't, we had a-a uh, test to take! Yeah, a big test today" he said awkwardly, making the two girls raise a suspicious eyebrow.

Riley, sat up from the table, mentally waking himself up as much as possible, he glared slightly at his friend, making him awkwardly smile and slightly shrug in response

He quickly wrapped his left arm around Kurumu and pulled her in, making her happily gasp in surprise.

"Yo don't worry bout us, we good, but we was up all night though, so we gonna chill here with y'all and walk y'all to class then we gone go back to our dorms and get some rest," Riley stated with a forced smirk on his face.

Moka smiled at his declaration, seemingly believing their stories, but Kurumu wasn't so easily convinced. She didn't know what it was but something didn't feel right, maybe it was her connection to Riley but she didn't feel he was being sincere.

He was her Destined One, their kiss on that fateful day had already sealed the initial deal. She had learned from her mother that the First Phase of Destiny would eventually begin to form a small mental connection between the two lovers, but she had no idea when it would begin to develop. As she relaxed into his toned arms, she realized how off he felt. His heartbeat seemed to quicken after he told them what happened. Was he lying to her?

Her mouth grew agape as an impossible thought came to her, she had had a very strange dream last night, it was fuzzy in some parts but she had seen a few parts of it well enough. The boys were out all night doing some kind of search and rescue mission? She flinched as she tried to recall more but all she could currently recall was the three of them wearing black jumpsuits, in some sort of fight with an older man! She shook her head at the notion, it was completely ridiculous, wasn't it?

"Yeah right Riley, if you guys were up last night partying then it's no big deal. It's not like you study anyway, so what's the real reason you guys are so tired" she asked with a mocking smirk on her face, making him twitch in panic slightly.

Moka hugged Tsukune's back making him blush as he felt her sizable bust on his traps. "Yeah come on guys, there's no need to lie about that, I'm only just a little disappointed you didn't invite us to party with you guys"

Riley and Tsukune shared a glance, they seemed to telepathically communicate with each other a single line that they both picked up flawlessly.

'Just Go with It!'

Riley laughed awkwardly at their deduction, "Shit, looks like y'all caught us slipping, huh"

Tsukune simply laughed awkwardly along with him! Moka seemed to drop it at that, but Kurumu still wasn't convinced. Her eyes narrowed suspiciously, something in the back of her head told her that what really happened had nothing to do with a party, she didn't know what to think anymore, was this a product of their connection or was she just letting her Woman's intuition get out of hand. Her eyes widened when she realized he also had a busted lip, where could that have come from? However, before she could confront him about her suspicions she heard two very familiar voices in an intense argument outside of the Pavilion.

###############

7:35AM

Mizore leaned on the wall of the Girl's Dormitory, suckling on her lollipop patiently as she waited for her Afro-headed Hero to arrive.

She had begun going to class again at his request. A couple of days ago on the first day he walked her to School, they had reported Kotsubo to the staff. They simply apologized for the inconvenience and reported that they had not seen him recently. Huey had surmised that he was probably hiding out somewhere in the vast woods that surrounded the School area.

Mizore had told him to let it go, that he couldn't hurt her anymore but Huey was far from pleased. It warmed her cold heart to see him so invested in bringing her attempted rapist to justice. It only added to the reasons why she wanted to be with him. He had an iron-clad sense of justice, she understood that. She understood him!

She looked to her left and felt her heart skip a beat when she laid eyes on her Afro-headed, tall, dark, and handsome friend. He always had a reserved, even tired look on his face but this time it was different. As he approached the banister, she could see his sunken eyes from where she stood. He was obviously exhausted for some reason.

Huey walked up the banister and laid his eyes on her, she blushed, crossing her legs as her heart skipped another beat as he walked closer to her, his hazel eyes seemingly locked into her azure gaze.

Mizore smiled shyly as he stopped in front of her, he was only about a foot away. There it was again, something was wrong here, for the last couple days, he would show up to walk her to class with a peaceful even content look in his eye. He tried not to show it, but she could tell he enjoyed their time together, this time though, he seemed so lost, it looked like he was on autopilot at the moment.

Mizore raised her hands to his face, her slightly chilled grasp waking him up from his stupor. He looked at her like he had only just noticed she was there.

"Huey…...you look terrible, please tell me what happened" she asked caringly. She hated to see him like this, he looked so very tired, he had an almost defeated look in his eyes.

Huey stared back into her caring frosty blue gaze, and felt his processing center fail him, he had already come up with a retort for when she inevitably asked him why he looked so tired but as he looked into her piercing but concerned purple eyes, he found that the only thing he could think of was the truth. He quickly put that foolish notion aside and gave her an answer.

"I was just up all night studying for a big test I have today" he stated lamely, inwardly cringing at how half-assed it sounded.

Mizore felt her heart clench at his obvious lie, she felt her eyes water slightly but pushed them down before they could show. He always lied to her! What was he hiding, didn't he understand that she could read him like an open book? Every time she tried to shimmy her way into his heart, he seemed to put up a solid wall that stopped her in her tracks.

Mizore pulled his face down to hers, so that they were now eye level! She glared at him with a hurt expression on her face.

"I can tell that's a lie you know, but those are all you ever seem to tell me now, aren't they"

Mizore gently took her hands off of him and walked off with a saddened glare on her face. Huey followed with a pained look in his eye. He hated doing this to her, he could tell that after the last few days of him essentially shutting her advances down she was starting to get angry with him. All his life he had prided himself on being unreadable, keeping his composure was one of his many talents, but now for the first time, he had met someone who could read him like an open book.

'Shaping up to be a great day isn't it' Huey thought to himself sarcastically as he followed the Snow Woman.

It was usually quiet when they walked to school together! The two connected loners had pretty much mastered the art of creating comfortable silences with each other, but this time it wasn't so comfortable. The tension between them was so thick they could taste it! There were rare moments when Huey Freeman didn't know what to say but unfortunately for him, this was one of those moments.

Mizore glared as she walked in front of him, this little game he was playing with her was starting to seriously piss her off. It'd be different if he just didn't like her, but it was quite the opposite, It didn't matter how much he tried to hide it, she had seen that spark of attraction from him from the very moment they'd first locked eyes on one another at the Cliff. So why the hell was he resisting not only her, but his own desires so much.

'Well isn't this just typical, I finally find someone who understands me and actually likes me and now he wants to play hard to get, ugh damn it Huey, why don't you just pick me up, throw me against a wall and tear my clothes off already' Mizore thought to herself bitterly as she continued to quickly walk down the pavement glaring daggers at anyone who so much as looked at her.

"Holy shit she's a Snow Woman!"

"Yeah maybe, but jeez who pissed in her Frosted Flakes"

"I feel like she's going to freeze us if we so much as make eye contact"

Huey walked at what he had calculated to be a safe few feet behind the enraged girl, in her frustration, her Monster Form was starting to become more apparent. The lower half of her luscious purple hair was swaying in the wind with a frosty aura. The pavement hissed with each step she took and her tightly closed fists were glowing a dangerous purplish blue

Huey sighed to himself in irritation as he put his hands in his pockets, he was too tired for this shit right now. He knew that sooner or later he would have to deal with her getting frustrated that he wasn't returning her advances, but now really wasn't the time. She had no idea of the pressures he was currently under!

He honestly didn't know what to do, it wasn't like he had any means to leave this cursed dimension at the moment, but did that mean he could afford to give in to her? What about Sector Yokai? He had no idea when Mikogami would call them again to take down another checkpoint. Even if he was an asset to the Headmaster, he wasn't foolish enough to believe he wasn't expendable if the need arised. Not to mention the fact that the three soldiers that they spared would have no doubt reported back to their superiors with information about the loss of their Lieutenant and fellow soldiers to inform them that Sector Yokai was being targeted. That meant that if there were any more checkpoints in this dimension, they would no longer be as easily infiltrated. Last night was already dangerous enough, next time they were forced to attack another checkpoint, there was a decent possibility one of them wouldn't make it. Maybe Tsukune and Riley were dumb enough to keep this little charade of everything being all hunky-dory, but he wasn't. If he, his brother, or Tsukune ended up getting killed then the girls would be heartbroken. He couldn't put Mizore through that, it was better if she just learned to hate his guts.

As they passed the Pavilion they commonly hung out at, Mizore's frustration began to overflow. She tightly clenched her icy fists as she suddenly stopped walking and turned around with a vulnerable but furious expression on her face.

"I can't believe you, we've been walking for five minutes and you still haven't said anything" Mizore glared, looking him directly in his tired eyes.

Huey was beginning to lose his cool, he knew this was on him but in his sleep-deprived state, he had a lot less patience than usual. He merely glared back, making her flinch slightly.

"Why would I waste my breath talking to a ticking time bomb, if you've got something to say, come back to me when your hair isn't frozen!" He stated with a cold glare as he began to walk past the teary-eyed girl. He only made it four steps before he nearly tripped. He growled before looking down to find his left foot frozen to the pavement.

"Screw you Huey, you know why I'm angry with you" she said coldly as she walked a few steps closer to his surprised frozen frame. Huey's glare softened when he took in her hurt expression more thoroughly.

"You keep lying to me, but even worse, you keep lying to yourself. There's a connection between us, an understanding!" Mizore said as she raised her hands to his face gently yet again before smiling bitterly, letting a single tear slide down her face, making Huey's eyes widen in surprise.

"Am I just not good enough for you, is that it? I know I'm not worth much, I'm not super pretty like Moka and I'm not very charismatic like Kurumu. But for once I thought I'd met someone who understood that, but somehow still liked me anyway" She sobbed out, her bitter smile still on her face, making Huey's heart wrench.

Huey put his left hand on her right hip, gently pulling her into his body and his right hand on her chin, making her perk up at his sudden movement.

"Hey, Mizore…...you're wrong so don't talk like that! For your information, I find you a whole lot prettier than Moka, and Kurumu's a lot like Riley, she doesn't know when to stop talking. Your calm and collected demeanor is perfect if you ask me. My point is, I do understand you, and I like you Mizore, a lot!"

Mizore looked up at him with an adoring expression on her face, he was so close to her that she could practically feel his pheromones as they were only inches away from each other's lips. She was lost in his hazel gaze, was this finally it, would he finally give into her.

"Then let me in Huey, stop torturing yourself like this, I want to help you, you just have to kiss me, take down this stupid wall and kiss me you idiot"

As Huey leaned in closer, she felt her heart skip a beat! She smiled and closed her eyes as she leaned into him as well, ready to finally claim his lips, to claim his trust.

~Smooch~

Mizore's eyes widened in horror when she realized he had kissed her on her forehead instead. She shivered uncontrollably, she couldn't believe it…..he had done it again.

Huey pulled back from her cool forehead with a pained expression on his face. "That's why I can't be with you Mizore, I'm not what you need. I'm not the relationship type, you deserve someone who's gonna love you and be there for you, no matter what. I'm not that guy Mizore, I don't even know how much longer I'm going to be here. I can't let you get attached to me and then be gone the next day!"

Mizore simply stared into his chest with a dumbstruck expression on his face. She was so close, didn't he understand that she didn't want anyone else but him? She came to her senses and with a groan of emotional pain pushed him on the ground, he grunted as he landed on the pavement, the ice that formerly held him had fallen apart on his way to the ground. He sighed painfully before he looked up at the Purple-haired girl he had fallen for so quickly. Her tears were in freefall now as she sobbed uncontrollably, still looking in his eyes with intense despair.

"Why…...why are you doing this to me, you say you understand me but if you think that ignoring your feelings is what's best for me then you clearly don't understand me nearly as much as you think!"

As Huey heard her broken sobs, he felt his heart break in two. The last thing he wanted to do was hurt her, but she didn't understand, she couldn't understand. There were so many reasons why whatever they had wouldn't work it was crazy. Even Kurumu still didn't know that his brother was Human, and she had already made him her Destined One. Who knows how she would react when they eventually would have to tell her the truth, he had no intention of leading Mizore on by doing the same thing. That wasn't even mentioning the heartbreak she would feel if he died the next time they had to storm another Sector Yokai checkpoint which would undoubtedly be substantially better guarded.

Huey frowned as he slowly began to stand up, "You don't understand, the situation is more complicated than you can imagine, believe it or not, I'm doing you a favor right now"

Mizore wiped away her tears with her sleeve before meeting his gaze with conviction. "Then tell me, If it's about your Monster Form then I don't care! I just want to be with you, you're the one person who can understand me, I just want you to trust me, to embrace me, please Huey open your heart to me!" the girl begged as she waited desperately for him to say something, anything.

Huey clenched his fists as he struggled to keep himself from speaking, he hated to hurt her but in the end…...it really was in her best interest if she simply didn't get involved with him. She would hate him, but in the end it was worth it. Hopefully, she would find some other guy who could afford to be honest with her. He simply sighed and averted his gaze, he cringed as he could practically hear the girl's heart breaking in two at his rejection.

He walked over to her as her body shaked in what seemed to be despair, "I'm sorry Mizore but I-Arrrgh"

He didn't get to finish before he felt a blunted icicle smash into his chest sending him flying before he landed on the pavement. He coughed painfully before looking up at his assailant to find her eyes laced with intense fury.

"Fine Then…. I don't need you anyway you self-righteous sack of shit, thanks for introducing me to your friends, they've been far better to me than you ever were" Mizore remarked with fiery intensity as she walked past the stunned Afro-headed Revolutionary to the Pavilion, only to see Moka and Kurumu running down the stairs to meet her, looking concerned.

"Mizore are you ok, what happened?" Moka yelled out in concern as she ran up to the teary-eyed Snow woman and clasped her hands making the stunned girl smile slightly at her kindness.

Kurumu glared at the slowly standing up Huey, "I'll tell you what happened, this asshole told her off! What gives you the right to treat her like that you skeeze" she yelled as she rapidly approached Huey, who looked at her approaching form with eyes as dead as the sea around them.

Riley and Tsukune had been watching the whole thing from the pavilion as well, at first Riley had no qualms laughing at his brother's apparent girl problems before he saw that things were quickly getting out of hand. He quickly ran up to Kurumu and grabbed her shoulder and turned the girl around.

"What Riley, there's no way you're defending this jerk are you," She said as she crossed her arms under her bust with a disbelieving tone.

Riley scoffed at her, "Hell yeah I'm defending this jerk, that jerk's my brother. Yeah, the nigga's a know it all and a hater but he's still my brother! I ain't gonna crucify him over the word of some ice bitch with anger issues over his."

Kurumu put her hands on her hips and glared harder at his declaration as she angrily stepped closer to get in his face, "Don't call her a bitch you asshole, can't you see she's in pain because of your brother, have some sympathy for once"

Riley glared back hard, he wasn't in the mind state to argue. He was tired and was completely without his filter. He knew he shouldn't have let Tsukune drag him out of bed, and for what, all for a disgruntled female with attachment issues. She was lucky he was even here! Riley roughly grabbed her right arm and yanked her into his chest, making her gasp in slight fear at the cold fury in his eyes.

"The only reason i'm with you right now is because of sympathy, so shut the fuck up and humble yoself, if you step to me sideways again imma show you how much of an asshole I am," he said dangerously before shoving her back to Moka and MIzore

Kurumu's eyes widened in despair as she began to tear up, he couldn't mean that, could he? After all he said to her before, after all the moments that they had shared, was she really just a charity case to him. A broken lonely girl that he picked up out of pity. Her tears began to flow freely now as she began to sob audibly.

Moka put her hands on the heartbroken girls' shoulders and began to tremble in anger, Kurumu was so happy this morning, she didn't deserve to be put down like this especially after she had admitted to her that she was in love with the very man who had just crushed her spirit seemingly without remorse. She looked up to meet the gaze of the dark-skinned teen who's glare had subsided as he realized how Kurumu had interpreted what he had just said

"Riley, how could you say that! Kurumu is in love with you, you idiot. You haven't even said it back to her yet and now you have the nerve to break her heart like this. Screw you!" She yelled out to the now apologetic looking teen.

Tsukune could quickly see things going left and tried to intervene. "Hey come on guys let's take a deep breath and calm down. There's no need to fight!

Mizore simply looked at Tsukune with a dead-looking smile making him flinch before speaking up.

"Tsukune's right Kurumu, he's not worth the effort, neither Huey or his pigheaded brother. It's getting late girls, we should head to class now, let them sit there and suffer on their own a little longer, bye-bye Huey" Mizore said in a sing-song voice with a cold smirk on her face as she walked off with Moka and Kurumu in tow.

Huey continued to stand in place with a broken looking expression on his face. He had done it, she officially hated his guts now. This was for the best, he knew it to be true. So why did he still feel like he blew it!

Tsukune and a clearly distraught Riley walked over to him, they cringed slightly at his dead expression. He seemed to be completely out of it, like he was so lost in thought that he seemed to have forgotten they were beside him.

"I told y'all we should have stayed in bed but nooo y'all niggas wanted to be chivalrous, them hoes would have been fine till lunch, now we probably banned from the table" Riley exclaimed bitterly. He couldn't believe he was so stupid, he was so tired that he had forgotten that he had never actually told them why they were really tired in the first place. When he said those words to her, he was talking about the fact that he agreed to come with Tsukune because he cared for her more than he liked to admit.

"Shut the Hell up Riley" Huey simply exclaimed before he walked off back to his dorm, ready to sleep and hopefully put the whole disaster of a morning behind him.

Riley and Tsukune sighed as they followed him, both of them eager to get back to their own rooms. To the three of them, it felt like their escapade had never stopped.

As they walked off, no one noticed a glowing pair of eyes in the woods looking right at them with brilliant intensity.

"I knew you couldn't handle that cold little piece of ass Freeman, Women respond to a more ….. Forceful Approach!" a deep, husky voice said as it slowly crept back into the woods.

################

It had been a profoundly long morning, it was only 7:50 and so much had already happened. Moka, Kurumu, and Mizore walked into the School and decided to sit down inside the classroom for the next ten minutes until class started.

"What happened Mizore, why were you guys arguing like that?" Moka turned around and asked the Snow Woman who had her face resting on her right hand as she stared outside the window, lost in thought.

Kurumu glared in irritation at Moka's question before answering it for her, "Why do you think Moka, that walking statue Huey has been shutting down poor Mizore's feelings for him all week. Wouldn't you be mad if you were throwing yourself at Tsukune and he just decided to blow you off like that"

Much like Mizore, Kurumu had been glaring at the window to her left the entire time they were in the classroom. Her thoughts were revolving around what Riley had said to her, although after the initial shock of his words, she began to feel strange, almost … content, like she wasn't even angry anymore. She had focused so much of her energy on him for the last 20 minutes, that she could vaguely feel his own emotional state as well, which confused her greatly. It was clear to her now, their link was active, there was no doubt about it. What really confused her however, was the fact that if he didn't love her like she did him, the link couldn't be maintained. As she focused on his emotional state, she could vaguely feel that he felt almost as miserable as she did. It baffled her, but it also gave her hope that maybe he didn't mean what he said.

Moka looked down in thought and silently nodded her head in agreement before turning back to the still gazing Mizore. "I'm sorry Mizore, I don't get why Huey would act this way to you, he's usually such a mature guy"

Mizore sighed to herself before turning her steely gaze to the concerned Moka, "He's a lying piece of shit that I no longer want anything to do with, he even had the nerve to lie to me about why he showed up to meet me half asleep this morning."

Kurumu raised an eyebrow at her declaration, "Hm, you mean he showed up with bags under his eyes too, what did he tell you?" she asked the stoic Snow Woman.

"He gave me some half-ass story about him staying up studying all night or something, I don't really care anymore" she informed them with a bitter glare that didn't seem to leave her face.

Moka's eyes widened at that, "Wait, he told you that too, Tsukune and Riley showed up at the Pavilion this morning looking like crap and said the same thing to us!"

Kurumu glared when she came to the same conclusion as her pink-haired friend. "Those dicks, I knew they were hiding something, Riley was with me last night, after he left, I went to bed but ….. I-I had this really weird dream. At first I just brushed it off but I've been remembering more of it for the last 20 minutes. It was so vivid and linear that I felt like I had to talk to you guys about it." she said, her voice becoming a self-conscious whisper when she brought up Riley's name.

"A dream, um... no offense Kurumu, but I don't think that's a really reliable source" Moka said with trepidation.

Kurumu sighed before she elaborated, "Look, when a Succubus kisses her Destined One for the first time, a link is formed. Over time we begin to slowly connect with each other in mind, body, and spirit. Riley and I haven't been linked for long, but I've already begun to be able to read his feelings and thoughts slightly if I concentrate hard enough."

As the classroom began to fill up more and more by the minute, Mizore perked up at her explanation in slight interest, smiling for the first time since they had been together, "That sounds pretty cool, stalking someone is only fun when they don't know you're there" she said unironically, making the two girls look at her with slightly alarmed expressions on their faces.

Kurumu braced herself and began to speak somewhat shakily, "I-It was really weird because it started off with Huey talking to Riley and Tsukune about how they were going to leave the academy because they were … Human's." she whispered

Mizore and Moka's eyes were as wide as dinner plates at the bombshell their Succubus friend had just dropped on them, but one of their expressions wasn't surprise, but fear.

'N-no, this can't be real, this has to be some kind of coincidence. There's no way Kurumu would know about that! That means that her dream must be what really happened last night, Tsukune, no… y-you can't leave me!'

"It must be a dream then, there's no way that can be true, Human's can't even get in here, can they?" MIzore said with a distraught look on her face. Could that be the reason, as insane as it sounded it would make a lot of sense. Suddenly, she gasped as she remembered some of the things he had said to her.

"You don't understand, the situation is more complicated than you can imagine, believe it or not, I'm doing you a favor right now"

"I don't even know how much longer I'm going to be here. I can't let you get attached to me and then be gone the next day!"

"The details are pretty shaky but to make long story short they ended up being forced by some guy in a priest outfit to go on some kind of mission or something to the deep woods, they ended up having to fight another man in a warehouse. At first, they got their asses handed to them pretty badly, but the guy wasn't very smart after he summoned this strange power and they were able to outsmart him. They….. They took two naked girls from the facility and dropped them off for the robe guy to pick them up."

Mizore and Moka looked at her like she had grown a second head, both of them were still trying to make sense of Kurumu's odd new ability.

Mizore leaned into the two girl's ears and began to whisper, "So what …. do you guys think that those three are Humans or something"

Moka began to sweat before trying to throw the suspicion away, "Mizore that's crazy, Humans can't come here, remember! It's gotta just be a dream Kurumu, there's no way that's true" she exclaimed firmly

Kurumu's eyes narrowed in deep thought, "I'm not crazy about this little theory either, but it makes sense, doesn't it. I even noticed that Riley had a busted lip this morning, and I know for a fact that he didn't have it last night. She whispered out, before realizing the gravitas of this new revelation.

She put her hands to her mouth in shock. "W-why didn't he tell me, he's me Destined One, didn't he think that this was an important piece of information," She said with a teary-eyed expression

Moka sighed as she began to realize that there was no way to salvage this situation. 'Sorry guys, but at this point, they already know enough, I need to tell them the truth.'

Moka began to nervously rub her arm before speaking up, "Kurumu, Mizore … I have a confession to make"

Mizore looked at the nervous girl, before mentally sighing, she had a feeling that she already knew what she was going to say. She began to tear up slightly as she took in the cold hard truth, 'Huey is a Human! Damn it, I told him it didn't matter what he was to me. So why was he still so reluctant to tell me. I can't believe I said all of those awful things to him, I just told the only man who's ever cared about me that I hated him'

"You knew about this the entire time, didn't you," she whispered out as she continued to stare at her desk like she was in a trance.

Kurumu gasped and looked at the guilty-looking Moka with hurt in her eyes, "Moka, how could you not tell us about something like this."

Moka met her eyes for the first time since she had dropped the bombshell, "I-It wasn't my place to tell you guys, I even only know because I met them on the first day of school when that Saizou freak attacked us. It was Tsukune, Riley, and Huey's responsibility to tell you on their own merit." she explained before looking at both of their shocked expressions.

She began to bow and beg profusely, "I know this is a really big surprise to you two but ….. don't hate them, it doesn't matter if they're human, they're our friends and they've been there for us more times than we can count. So please, don't let this change how you feel about them" She whispered out desperately.

Kurumu averted her eyes in deep thought, 'I suppose I should have known anyway, I mean Riley uses a freaking gun as a weapon for pete's sake. But ….. I was always told that Human men were miserable, unworthy creatures with no empathy for others whose sole purpose in life was to be slaves of my race, but Riley's nothing like that, he's so smart and headstrong, and confident, he, he saved me from myself, and all so he could make sure that the rest of the boys in school still had their free will, h-he, even knew they were Monsters, but he didn't care. Does it really matter that he turned out to be a human.'

Kurumu clenched her fist, "This is just too much to take in right now Moka, give us some time to process this," she said with a heavily conflicted look on her face.

Mizore nodded her head with a despairing look on her face, "Truthfully, I don't really care if Huey's a Human or not, I'm just sad that he didn't trust me enough to tell me" she whispered out.

"GOOD MORNING CLASSSS" Ms. Nekonome yelled eagerly as she walked into the classroom with her usual bubbly smile on her face.

Kurumu couldn't help but smile slightly at their teacher's infectious positive energy before it fell momentarily as she looked at her pink-haired friend, "We'll talk about this later Moka!" she proclaimed as the girl nodded her head in agreement solemnly.

################

Riley and Tsukune stood at the bottom of the banister of the Boy's Dormitory as they waited for Huey so they could go to the lunch cafeteria hall. They had gotten back to their dorms sometime in between 7:50-8:00 O'clock. Huey stayed quiet the entire walk back to the Dormitory, he didn't even bother saying goodbye to the two, he simply walked up to the second floor and went to his dorm. Once each of them hit their beds, their bodies once again reminded them of how tired they still were. They were out in no time flat!

As Tsukune and Riley waited for their Afro-headed companion, Tsukune looked over to Riley and asked him the question that was on both of their minds.

"So….that was pretty harsh back there, you think he's going to be alright Riley?"

Riley shrugged nonchalantly, "All I know is the nigga better hurry up, we already late, we might not even make it no more; and he better be alright, bein a simp and loving these hoes was Tom's shtick," he said bluntly.

Tsukune raised an eyebrow at the seemingly random name that Riley had brought up. "Huh, who's Tom?"

"It don't matter, what matters is that Huey ain't never gotten Bitch Dependency before, and this bet not be his first"

Tsukune crossed his arms and sighed at his friends' vulgar descriptions. At this point he was so used to his friend's potty mouth that it barely even phased him anymore. "O.k….. What about you?"

RIley scoffed at his brunette friend with a panicked look in his eye, "What about me? Shit, I'm good, i'm chilling, i'm gone be alright" he said strongly, trying to take the pressure off of himself. In truth he didn't feel alright. Kurumu probably hated his guts now, all because of some misunderstanding on the account that he couldn't keep his big mouth shut. It was slowly eating him up, would she ever forgive him, or was the best relationship he'd ever been in in his life a relic of the past now.

Tsukune adopted a shit-eating grin on his face at his friend's obvious deflection, "You know, It's just me Riley, I'm not going to judge you for having actual human emotions you know. You screwed up, and now you're worried that she won't forgive you, it's a very common emotional reaction among our kind" he remarked sarcastically.

Riley raised an eyebrow at his friend's jab, "Yeah whatever, I ain't got nothing to be sad about, but you need to check yourself for Bitch Dependency too, cause from what I'm sein, Moka got yo K-Pop looking ass wrapped around her little finger."

Tsukune glared at the dread headed boy, "I'm not sure what offends me more, your insinuation that i'm some kind of sucker or the fact that you just called me a Korean, we're not all the same you know" he borderline yelled comically

Yo … you two ready to go."

Riley and Tsukune looked up at the top of the banister to find the aforementioned Huey Freeman with his hands in his pockets. Like theirs, the bags that were previously under his eyes were significantly less apparent. A stiff breeze caused his Afro to blow majestically in the wind as his iron clad gaze steadied itself on the only other two humans at this school.

As Huey walked down the banister Riley smirked at the look in his eyes, his gaze seemed a lot more relaxed than before. It was clear that the hours of sleep he reclaimed had done him good! He wasn't all peaches and roses but he seemed fine enough.

"It's about time nigga, you finished crying cause yo girl left you" Riley chuckled before yelling out in pain as Huey stepped on his foot as he passed him by.

Tsukune laughed as Riley picked his left foot up and began to nurse it with a grimace on his face. "Where I'm from, we call that Karma" he stated simply as he followed the still walking Huey.

Riley glared at the two smirking boys as they walked away from him, neither of them looking back. He ran to catch up to the two boys.

"Don't hate me cause you bitchless nigga, you better check that hoe Huey"

Huey merely raised an eyebrow at his brother's ironic choice in words. "We're expendable soldiers Riley, like it or not, eventually Mikogami's gonna call us again. We've already kidnapped a Lieutenant and killed three of their soldiers. Next time we have to take these guys on they won't be so easy to deal with. They know we can get in now, and that means that the soldiers are on guard 24/7, we could easily die if we aren't careful next time. You two may be willing to break Moka and Kurumu when the news of your deaths comes around but I'm not willing to do the same with Mizore" Huey stated, making Riley and Tsukune cringe slightly as the reality of their situation set in.

"So what we supposed to do, just suffer here until we get capped. I ain't with that Huey, if we gone go out we might as well enjoy our last moments here with the girls. I don't know …. I've been thinking that maybe we should just spill it man." Riley exclaimed in a rare moment of solemnity.

Huey looked back at him with a shocked expression on his face, he looked to Tsukune to find that his expression was a thoughtful one. "Don't tell me you're agreeing with this, Riley's already a dumbass, the last thing I need is two of them"

Tsukune shook his head at Huey's conclusion, "It's not like that Huey, but I think Riley's right! I mean, I don't think the Headmaster's going to call us again for quite some time. He even told us himself that we should focus on living our lives here, besides, Moka already knows we're human anyway. What if there are more checkpoints out there, would we be able to forgive ourselves if any of them came across those flowers and were captured because we didn't tell them anything?" Tsukune whispered out solemnly, making Riley nod his head in agreement.

They had been standing by the furnace for a few minutes now, Huey looked down, lost in thought. He couldn't believe he had never thought of that! Were they right? Was he thinking too much into this for once, did he dare to hope that maybe, just maybe, things would work out fine for them in the end. Even if it didn't, was it really better to have loved and lost than never loved at all.

Huey sighed as he pinched his nose while he attempted to rein in his thoughts, "I-I don't know y'all, I really don't know! Maybe you guys are right, but right now I just want to eat. We can talk about this later alright!"

Riley and Tsukune nodded in agreement before the three students began their journey to the cafeteria again, before being stopped by something completely unexpected. Three students stepped in front of them. One was tall and lanky with brown hair, another was not as tall as the brown haired teen but still about their height. He had Auburn hair and a standard build. The last one was short and pudgy with dirty blond hair. At first glance Huey, Riley and Tsukune prepared for a fight but the literal tears streaming down their faces threw the three human boys for a serious loop.

"You're them aren't you, Huey Freeman, Tsukune Aono, and Riley Freeman right?"

The three boys looked like deer in headlights, these three had come out of literally nowhere and were all of a sudden demanding their identities. Tsukune answered first with a questioning tone in his voice, "Uh, yeah that's us, and you're-"

"Fed up with you three, that's what" The pudgy teen finished for him with an angry and strangely…..jealous look in his eyes.

Huey sighed with irritation, "I know I'm gonna regret this but, why, what's your problem with us?"

"Because you three are our number one enemies" The lanky teen sobbed out, making the three humans cringe at the pathetic display in front of them.

Riley raised a critical eyebrow as he crossed his arms, "If that's the case then we don't claim y'all, my enemies don't cry like a bunch of bitches on they periods. What y'all want with us?"

Suddenly, the three students seemed to dry their tears almost instantly and stood up straight with oddly confident smirks on their faces.

"You mean you don't know, then allow us to explain!"

"Formation SET!" The three yelled in sync as they quickly ripped their school uniforms off of their bodies to reveal the same white button-up shirts and red ties, but in the place of their green blazers, they put on bright pink ones instead, each one of them displaying unnerving kanji's on the backs of their jackets.

The auburn-haired teen who seemed to be the leader spread his arms and yelled out,

"START!

~Give me an M, give me an O, give me a K, give me an A, what does that spell: MOKA!~ he stated excitedly, as he clasped his hands together and danced like a fangirl.

"I've gotta cheer for the girl of my dreams too pal!" ~Kuru, Kuru she's my love, touch her and you'll get a shove, chya~ the short fat student sang!

~Y, U, K, A, R, I, Yukari, Yayy!~ the lanky teen cheered in a high pitched voice.

The auburn-haired teen crossed his arms "I'm the president of the Moka Akashiya Fan Club: Kozo Kasahara!"

The short pudgy teen put his hands on his hips, "And me, I'm the president of the unofficial Kurumu Kurono Fan Club: Bosaburo Taira!"

The tall lanky teen put his left hand on his hip, "And me! I'm the president of Yukari Sendo's Private Fan Club: Kubasaki Nagai!"

"The three of us form: The Cute Girl Fan Club Coalition!" The three presidents yelled in sync as they struck flamboyantly gay poses.

An awkward breeze passed by as Huey, Riley and Tsukune stared at the still posing coalition with flabbergasted looks on their faces. That was until the silence was broken by Riley who slowly began to crack up before bursting out laughing.

"Hahaha,Y-Yo! Y'all see these three gay ass niggas" Riley chuckled as the three presidents began to glare at him furiously. Upset that he had insulted their clearly sublime performance.

Bosaburo especially glared daggers at him. He was a delinquent, through and through! He got into fights commonly, he cursed like a sailor and slacked off in class. At least Saizou and all of the other delinquents had the decency to wear a tie, this Riley kid wore a fricken gold chain around his neck for christ sake, A Gold Chain! And no one said a damn thing about it. Every time he thought about all the attention his Sweet Kurumu gave this rap star wannabe he cringed. All he did was disrespect her, what kind of man didn't kiss the ground his goddess walked on. It seemed like it was even the opposite. His sweet Kurumu chased his validation constantly, he had even heard her tell him she loved him a few times and the delinquent had the nerve to smirk and say "Yeah I know baby." When they thought they were alone together, Riley would regularly just slap and grab her bottom while looking at her like she was a piece of sexy meat. He would even do it in public sometimes, he didn't care about tact and he had no respect for the Queen that Kurumu was.

Riley noticed the short fatasses jealous glare immediately, he smirked and shifted his gaze to him. This was just too good, ripping on these incel ass niggas would make this shitty day just a little bit better for him.

"Yo what's good Tubby! You know, I aint even mad that you want my girl, I mean she the Baddest Bitch in School so that's just natural you feel me. What I am mad at, is that you thought you could intimidate me by comin over here dancing like a fag at a homo parade!" he said arrogantly, intentionally twisting the knife for his own amusement.

Bosaburo snarled as he clenched his fists, barely even feeling the sharp points of his nails digging into his skin. "Shut up womanizer, you don't deserve my sweet Kurumu. How could you even think to call her a bi- a bi-, a….. B-WORD. I-I'll save her, j-just you wait" he stuttered out awkwardly!

Riley inwardly cringed at that, 'Damn, I really don't! That girl does everything for me, and I don't do nothing for her. I ain't even told her I love her man, I really ain't shit, am I?' he thought to himself in shame before outwardly chuckling and shrugging smoothly to keep up appearances, "Yeah alright Teletubby, the problem is she don't want to be saved playa!" he taunted.

Huey glared at his brother as he continued to taunt the shorter student. From the look of him, he was close to snapping his cap. He decided to try and play peacemaker before they had to get into yet another fight.

"Hey c'mon Riley lay off of him" he ordered before looking at the other two presidents who hadn't stopped glaring at them since they got there. "Look, we've got shit to do, what do you want with us"

"We came here so we could make you face our fearsome fan club wrath" Kozo glared as he, Bosaburo and Kubasaki lifted singular yellow club props in their hands and began to walk towards the three human friends.

Tsukune grimaced as they came closer, "Aw come on, not another fight" he whispered dejectedly to Huey who had taken a light stance in preparation.

"Suck it up Tsukune, these guys aren't anything special, this won't take more than 20 seconds" he retorted before three flying golden pans came out of literally nowhere and smacked the approaching club members in the face, sending them flying a few feet away.

"Hey cut it out, you bunch of creeps better stop picking on my friends right now or i'll kick your buts" Yukari yelled as she ran to the altercation in front of her.

Kubusaki sat up off the floor and rubbed his head before perking up at her voice, "Oh Yes, its….My Love!" he said with a deep blush on his face as he gazed at her small and supple…..11 year old…...pre-teen body making Riley grimace in disgust.

"Ew nigga, this ain't the remix to ignition, R-Kelly"

"Come on guys, this our chance" Kozo grabbed Bosaburo and the still staring Kubasaki and dragged them off quickly, "We'll Be Back!" They yelled simultaneously as they ran off into the distance.

Yukari smiled happily as she ran up to them and jumped right into Huey's arms, forcing him to catch her so she wouldn't pretty much fall on her skull.

"HUEY, It's so great to see you"

Riley and Tsukune chuckled in the background as Huey cringed slightly at the feeling of her arms tightly wrapped around his neck. Ever since he had lifted Yukari's spirits and invited her into the group in the woods a few days ago, she had become, in her own words, "completely in love with him." Needless to say, as much as he liked the little Witch, it made him seriously uncomfortable to constantly turn around to find her developing chest in his face. She was a cute girl and he could tell that when she grew up she would probably be a knockout, but therein lied the problem, the girl was only 11 and she didn't seem to have any concept of the word no!

"Hey Yukari, what did I tell you about jumping on me like that" he stated with a raised eyebrow, making her pout cutely before retorting.

"Hmph, you're no fun Huey" she said irritated as she let go of him and dropped to the ground.

The group continued walking as Riley smirked, "What's going on Hermione, now that you done sexually harassin my brother, you ain't gonna show no love to the niggas in the back"

Yukari smirked back, "Well I could, but why would I waste my time trying to teach an ignoramus simple language skills." she remarked as she stuck her tongue out playfully before she felt a draft where her hat usually was.

"HEY, GIVE ME BACK MY HAT!" She yelled as she began to chase the thief down the walkway and into the School.

Tsukune laughed as the two quickly ran out of sight. "Those two sure are something aren't they" he remarked with a smile on his face as Huey nodded his head in agreement.

"Yeah, something of a pain in my ass" he retorted with a raised eyebrow as the two continued to walk to their classes.

"Well I guess we're going hungry huh!"

################

"So … are you guys feeling better about this now?"

It had been a painfully long day for Mizore, after she had the pleasure of having her heart ripped out of her cold chest this morning, she had to suck it up and go to every one of her classes. As usual, Ms. Nekonome's class with Moka and Kurumu wasn't that bad! At least she got to spend time with her friends. Unfortunately, that was the only class she had with any of them so the rest of the day wasn't nearly as entertaining.

Most of the time, her classes weren't too unbearable for her, unfortunately though, today she had an even harder time focusing on her schoolwork than usual. She mentally cursed the Afro-headed young man that seemed to endlessly linger in her mind no matter how hard she tried to stop thinking about him.

"I can't stop thinking about him Moka!" she whispered out as she stared at the trees over the horizon.

She, Moka, Kurumu and Yukari had agreed to meet up after their classes on the roof of the School building.

Kurumu sighed at their current situation, they hadn't seen the boys all day, even at lunch they were a no show. At this point she had begun to feel bad for spazzing out on Riley like she did earlier, she distinctly remembered the apologetic look on his face after he had said what he said to her. He probably didn't even know about the mental link, but that didn't stop her from feeling how miserable he was during the rest of the day. It must have been a misunderstanding of sorts, regardless of what it was, she missed him greatly, she hadn't had the chance to feel his lips on hers all day, it almost made her feel a distinct cold feeling.

"Maybe we should talk to them you guys, we haven't seen them all day, I-I mean they were probably hiding the fact that they were Humans because they were scared that we wouldn't want to be friends with them anymore." Kurumu stated with uncertainty.

Yukari sighed as she looked at her feet in inner conflict. They had broken the news to her after school let out, she didn't take it too badly but the girl had become awfully quiet ever since.

"Well I-I still don't know what to think about that, I was always told that Humans were the worst form of scum, incapable of any empathy or goodwill. B-But when I came to this school all of the other Monsters treated me like crap, Huey: a Human, knew what I was and stood up for me anyway, I'll never forget what he said to me in that forest last week. Even Tsukune and that jerk Riley, they really do care about me, about us." she whispered, letting a small heartfelt smile form on her face as she began to realize that she really didn't care if they were Human whether or not.

Yukari perked up, "Actually, I did see them today!" she informed, making the three girls turn to her in shock.

"W-What…...where did you see them- w-when did you see them?" Moka asked incredulously.

"Around lunchtime, I think they were on their way to the cafeteria but when I showed up they looked like they were getting ready to fight another three students," Yukari informed simply.

Kurumu laughed at her description, "Well I assume they won right?" she asked cherily.

Yukari smirked confidently, "They didn't even need to throw a single punch, with a whisk of my Magic Wand I knocked those losers into next week"

"Enjoy your victory while you can, next time we end up having to fight real Monsters again, your little Magic Wand will be about as useful as it is intimidating" Kurumu retorted with a mocking smirk, making Yukari snarl at her as she tightened her fists.

"Oh yeah, and what are you going to do, Streetwalker, use your sagging balloons to seduce them!"

"W-What…..d-did you just call me Streetwalker?" Kurumu asked as she recoiled with a pink blush on her face.

Yukari smirked at the bewildered look on the face of her frenemy, "It's your new nickname, Streetwalker! It suits you, doesn't it."

"That's It, COME HERE!"

As the two begin to fight much to the chagrin of Moka and Mizore, they heard a feminine but powerful voice that made them look directly at Moka's glowing rosary.

"Are you fool's just going to sit here? Or are you going to find the boys and get some answers!"

The four surprised girls looked at Moka's talking Rosary in complete shock. It had been so long since Outer Moka had even heard her other halves' voice, she had almost forgotten she was there.

"What the hell Moka, who is that?" Kurumu asked the pinkette, she was about to explain before Inner Moka cut her off.

"I am Moka's true nature, the proud Vampire that lives inside of her! It's a pleasure to see you again …...Streetwalker!" Inner Moka proclaimed with a small iota of amusement at the nickname.

Kurumu blushed furiously at her jab, "HEY, I remember now, it's you! Why don't you come out of your little rosary then so we can finish our fight Vampire!" she yelled furiously at the glowing rosary.

"Hahaha! Believe me, If I could show you your place I would in a heartbeat, but luckily for you, I can't leave this seal without Tsukune to pull it off."

Yukari gulped audibly, the voice coming from the pinkette's rosary was commanding and intimidating, she timidly raised her hand slightly like she was in a classroom, "Um …. question, so if you're Moka, and she's Moka ….. are you like an entirely different person or something?"

"That's enough questions, we have bigger things to worry about! Find Tsukune, Huey, and Riley, and find out what's going on here, it doesn't matter if they're Human, but something deeper is in the works here, I can sense it. You should probably make haste, during the last few days, this morning included, I've been feeling a sinister presence stalking us in the shadows, at first I believed it to be nothing but after nearly a week of feeling such powerful negative energy, I now understand that this is no coincidence ….. Someone has been watching us for some time now, and they seem to be primarily focused on you, Snow Woman! You and Huey to be exact" Inner Moka proclaimed eerily, sending fearful shivers down their spines.

Mizore's eyes widened in fright and recognition, it was Kotsubo, it had to be! He had been missing for a few days, Huey had already suspected he was planning for his revenge but she never expected it to be so soon. She looked into the treeline thoroughly, he could be watching them right now for all she knew. Just as she was about to sigh in relief she saw a sight that made her heart stop.

Bright wide yellow eyes in the western treeline staring right into her very soul. She felt her body tremble violently, her fear of him had been growing for the last few days. She knew he would come for her eventually, but she figured she would have had just a little more time. As she continued to stare into his sinister gaze, she felt her mouth run dry as they narrowed and she saw a ghost of a smirk on his face before he vanished into the woods.

"So tell me Snow Woman, which of your outer demons have you brought onto us?"

As Outer Moka, Kurumu, and Yukari looked at her with frightful stares, Mizore yelped slightly as she was broken out of her trance. She began to tear up before explaining.

"It's Kotsubo-Sensei, the Gym teacher …. When I was low, he was there for me, he pretended to care for me, and for the first time, I felt like I was desired, I didn't feel so worthless anymore. So I confessed my love to him, and he told me to meet him in the deep woods. I wanted to be with him so badly that I followed his instructions and met him out there. I was so happy, so excited that I finally found someone who seemed to understand me, to actually want me. Of course, It turned out to be a lie all along, he knew I didn't have any friends, no one to call my own. So he targeted me, he knew if he took advantage of me, no one would believe me if I told anyone because I was a nobody. Luckily Huey showed up that day, I don't know why he was out there so deep in the forest but he was, he confronted Kotsubo and saved me from my fate. He lifted my spirits and walked me back to campus, he was so genuinely kind and caring that he helped me deal with the reality that I was almost raped by the person I cared about most at the time. That's when I fell in love with him!" Mizore whispered with tears flowing down her face.

Yukari gasped at her purple-haired friend's explanation, "Wait, Kotsubo?, I've heard that he's got a pretty creepy reputation with the female student body. Apparently he's a pretty big pervert who likes to stare and flirt with the girls in class. One time he was even caught getting grabby with a student. Why is he even still teaching here?" The Witch asked.

Outer Moka's eyes widened as a terrifying thought came to her, "Wait a minute, if this creep has a grudge against you and Huey, then he could be going after him right now for all we know. The boys could be in danger." she yelled out, making the rest of the girls gasp in horror at her assumption.

"We need to handle this situation now! This guy's Youki feels pretty strong, he won't be like the other monsters you've faced. Find Tsukune and get him to let me out, I'll handle this!" Inner Moka proclaimed, leaving no room for discussion amongst them.

As Moka, Kurumu and Yukari nodded in agreement, Mizore's eyes seemed glazed over. She started trembling! She couldn't let them risk their lives for her. They were all she had, this was her problem, she had to deal with it herself.

"...No!"

The girls looked at the glaring Snow Woman with bewilderment as she began to tighten her fist, a chilling aura began to spread across the roof.

Kurumu snarled and grabbed the Snow Woman's shirt and pulled her into her own glaring gaze. "No? What do you mean no? Don't tell me you're still so mad at Huey that you're willing to let him and the rest of the boys die!"

Mizore looked back into Kurumu's angered visage and merely smiled tenderly, instantly wiping away her anger and making her lightly gasp in surprise. Kurumu let Mizore go, the three girls stared at the Snow Woman, wondering what her sudden "no" meant.

"You guys really are something, you know that. I can't believe you'd be so willing to put your lives on the line for me. I've never had friends ….. a-and for a long time I didn't think I ever would. But then Huey introduced me to you guys and you let me in so easily, I love you guys and I'm more thankful for you then you will ever know…. but that's why I can't allow you to interfere. Kotsubo is my problem, and mine alone."

Mizore's eyes flashed a deep purple as she began to summon a snowstorm. The winds became so strong that the three girls were blown back from her intense power.

Moka, Kurumu, and Yukari screamed as they felt the freezing snow buffet their uncovered arms and legs. They covered their faces with their arms as Mizore's snowstorm grew more volatile.

"MIZORE, PLEASE STOP! YOU DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS. WE'RE YOUR FRIENDS, WE WANT TO HELP YOU" Moka shouted out at the top of her lungs as she tried her best to advance in the storm to reach her friend.

"DON'T BE AN IDIOT MIZORE, THIS GUY'S TO DANGEROUS TO TAKE ON ALONE" Yukari yelled as she held onto the railing beside her, as well as her flaying hat that threatened to be blown away in the wind.

"YOU DAMN IDIOT! WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER, WE JUST NEED TO GET HUEY FIRST, HE'LL KNOW THE BEST WAY TO HANDLE THIS" Kurumu screamed as she unleashed her claws and sunk them into the roof to keep her traction.

Mizore felt an icy tear roll down at their words, they were fighting so hard for her. It was completely nonsensical, this had virtually nothing to do with them, why did they care about her so much? Why were they so adamant on helping her resolve a problem that her own foolishness had not only caused but had also brought onto them.

The snowstorm began to compress into a powerful funnel around Mizore, "I've lived my entire life waiting on someone to save me, to rescue me from my own inner demons. I've never once taken responsibility for my own actions and tried to fix them. Well now It's time I save not only myself but someone else for a change. Don't interfere, I'll take care of this, Goodbye ….. My Friends!" Mizore proclaimed strongly as she used her own power to project her voice over the snowstorm before she disappeared altogether, leaving the three awestruck girls to look at the spot where she vanished in despair and confusion as the winds died down quickly.

Kurumu snarled as she rose from the floor before impulsively slashing through a section of the roof's railing in rage. "That Dumb Bitch, I can't believe she's pulling the whole hero speech at a time like this. Doesn't she get that friends fight our battles together?" She yelled in both anger and concern.

"We don't have time to deliberate, we need to find the boys and then find that fool before she gets herself killed ….. Or worse!"

Outer Moka bit her lip in deep thought before perking up as the likely location of the three humans became clear to her.

"Wait a minute, I know where they are!" she exclaimed happily.

Yukari waited for the girl to explain impatiently before clenching her fist and pointing angrily at the girl "WHERE? Don't be dramatic Moka, just tell us!" Yukari yelled.

Moka flinched before rubbing the back of her head awkwardly, much like a certain brunette boy often did "Uh, sorry, Tsukune told me yesterday that he would be going to the bus stop to send some letters back to his parents in the human world, if I were a betting girl then I'd wager that's where Riley and Huey are as well" she proclaimed confidently.

Kurumu took a deep breath before grunting slightly as her Succubus wings ripped out of her back. "Come on then, both of you! We need to get to them as soon as possible, and running will take too long."

Yukari gulped at her blue-haired friend's proposal, "Um, a-are you sure about this Kurumu, I mean we aren't fat or anything, but carrying the both of us can't be easy, can it?"

Kurumu merely scoffed before smirking confidently, "Puh-lease, I'm the Baddest Bitch on Campus, carrying you little tramps will be as easy as pie!"

Moka and Yukari sweatdropped, both of them thinking more or less the same thing about their Succubus friends' potty mouth.

'She's totally taking after Riley to much'

################

"So …... I-I can't be the only one thinking that we can take him….. Right?"

Huey, Riley, and Tsukune had been standing at the Academy Bus Stop patiently for the last 10 minutes. They knew that the Bus Driver was scheduled to arrive soon and they were hoping that he would be willing to mail their letters to their families for them, especially since he knew they were Human and they couldn't leave anyway.

Huey shook his head in irritation at Tsukune's declaration. "That's suicide, we don't know what kind of Monster he is. Without any information on him we'd be at a complete disadvantage."

"Aw, c'mon Huey, we're on a roll here! When we work together we're unstoppable, I mean, we beat that crazy Lieutenant didn't we? And he was a better fighter than all of us individually!" Tsukune tried to reason with a semi-confident grin on his face.

Huey bristled at him, "That's because we got lucky! He was overconfident, he was clearly not ready to use that power of his but he did it anyway because he thought we'd be easy targets, and look how that turned out for him. He lost control and we were able to catch him off guard, but when he was focused, he was able to whip all three of our asses, without his power, soundly I might add. Look, I get it man, you're still feeling the high of facing your fears and now you feel invincible, but don't get overconfident Tsukune, we can't handle this guy …. Not yet at least." Huey explained as he continued to look into the tunnel in between the realms of Human and Monster.

Tsukune pouted slightly as he realized that his Afro-headed friend was absolutely right. He couldn't help but grin to himself though. He still felt amazing, even now! All his life he had been afraid of confrontation, especially physical. When he had first come to this Academy, which he still found it hard to believe was only a month and a half ago, he was terrified of everything around him. What if he had to fight another Monster again? What if someone found out he was a Human and tried to eat him or something? Even as he trained every day with the motivation of protecting Moka driving him. He still felt like a stress bomb ready to go off any minute, that was, until last night. He had really done it, he had conquered his fear of physical conflict and felt ready for anything now.

"Yeah, I guess you're right Huey"

As a mostly comfortable silence descended upon the three Human students, Huey and Tsukune began to take periodic peaks at Riley, who was at the cliff face, staring off into the red sea with a rare solemn expression on his face. He had been awfully quiet after they had gotten out of class earlier that day. Riley would antagonize his brother around 39 times a day, Huey had counted, but today, after they attempted to go to lunch only to miss their opportunity he seemed to stop nearly altogether. Needless to say, it was unsettling for the two boys to see the usually almost hyperactive teen so grave.

Huey tunes around and walked over the cliff face where his brother stood, the breeze was slow but steady as it blew through his brothers dreadlocks loftly

"Yo Riley, you've been quiet for a while man, are you good?"

Riley only continued to stare out into the sparkling Red Sea for another few moments, not moving a muscle. Huey raised an eyebrow, thinking he was being ignored before Riley finally spoke up.

"I don know how much longer I can go without telling Kurumu I'm Human man. You know I ain't never had much trouble lying, but each day I just feel this pressure in the back of my head, and I don't know why?"

Huey sighed audibly at his brother's confession, before putting a hand on his shoulder as he looked into the majestic Red Sea himself.

"... You've become bonded to her Riley, from the moment that you first kissed her, you were bonded. I assume you haven't had sex with her yet, right?"

"Hehe, despite my best efforts, nah! She said that she wanted our first time to be "special" or somethin." He said with a reserved smirk on his face.

Huey nodded his head, "Good, The kiss is Phase 1! It's a semi-bond, it's still fairly weak to give the couple time to adjust to their new reality. That's why you're beginning to feel this way, because to a small extent, Kurumu is already in your head, and you're in hers."

Riley sighed as he moved a dreadlock out of his face, "I think subconsciously I kind of already knew that, I don't know man I feel like we've become almost in sync. Every once in a while, it's like she'll almost be able to tell what I be thinking!"

"Phase 2 however, is much deeper than that! Sexual Intercourse is already a transfer of the bonding spiritual energies of man and woman; but in the Succubi's case if she acknowledges her partner as her Destined One, the spiritual connection becomes insanely powerful."

Riley crosses his arms before looking to his brother for the first time with a questioning look on his face. "What so you mean like, if we get down, we gone be down … for good?"

Huey smirked slightly in mirth at his brother's simplified version of what he meant. "Yeah Riley, if you and Kurumu have sex, then you two will be truly bonded, in Mind, Body, and Spirit. She'll be able to read your thoughts, your feelings, everything! And you'll be able to do the same! It's a permanent ritual bond of a mate for life in Succubi culture." Huey informed his wide eyed brother, before continuing.

"That's probably why she wants to wait, I'd say she's just as scared about creating that kind of bond as you are! ….. Also, she's a Succubus, they're created to be the ultimate sexual being, so it will probably be the most mind numbingly euphoric sensation you could ever experience, but don't let that rush you" Huey stated sagely before comedically delivering his last line!

As Riley began to smile like a lark and loudly ask his brother more questions, Tsukune simply let them have their brotherly moment as he continued to wait for the bus to arrive. He chuckled slightly, wondering how his parents would react if they knew what they had gotten their son into. He still didn't understand though, why was he chosen! Mikogami didn't seem like the kind of guy to accidentally drop an important acceptance flyer all willy-nilly, no, he was there for a reason. As his thoughts continued to race, he perked up as he began to hear the sound of the bus coming from the tunnel.

He put his hands to his face to project his voice to Huey and Riley, "HEY GUYS, The bus is here!" He yelled out, making the two brothers quickly turn around and jog over to his side as the pavement groaned under the weight of the bus that had just pulled out of the dark tunnel.

Huey took off his backpack, put it on the pavement and unzipped it to find three stacks of letters written by each of them. Tsukune's stack was the biggest by a sizable margin, he had almost two dozen letters to send back. Huey's letters were few but thick in their content. Riley's letters were a little bit more than his stoic brother's, but they were short and sweet. He knew Grandad didn't read like that anyway!

Huey grabbed the three stacks of letters and handed them to Riley and Tsukune, the three teens looked up as the Bus opened slowly, smoke began to bellow out of the door almost mystically before it cleared to reveal Yokai Academy's favorite, and seemingly only Bus Driver.

The mysterious man's grin intensified at the fierce glares on the three Human's faces. He took another puff of his cigar before speaking up, "Howdy boys! I hope you're enjoying your Yokai Academy School experience, it's quite unique isn't it."

Hueys glare intensified as he took a step towards the buses staircase, "We had a run in with your friend yesterday, the name: Mikogami ring any bells!" he said angrily before pointing dead at his face as he let out another puff, Huey didn't flinch. "So what, are you the real mastermind or are you just his errand boy"

The bizarre Bus Driver merely chucked audibly at the young man's snark. "Kukuku, he's a sparkling conversationalist isn't he, It's a pleasure to see you boys again, when I first picked you three up I wasn't sure what he saw in you …. but I can see it Now!" He said cryptically, as his glowing eyes began to shine even brighter, making the three boys flinch and begin to shiver slightly, his smirk grew more pronounced, it wasn't exactly sinister but it was unsettling to say the least, they felt a dangerously powerful aura permeate from the man.

"Hehehe, Huey and Riley Freeman, Tsukune Aono, you three may be Humans, but you have a spark … a fire in you, like i've never seen before. To be able to withstand my aura like this, that's a badass feat worthy of praise!" he exclaimed as he let up the pressure, making them exhale silent breaths of relief

The three boys in question stared into the driver's mysterious eyes with stony facial expressions, but on the inside they were feeling the pressure, who was this guy. Whoever he was, he certainly wasn't Human, but he clearly had more information than he let on. It was almost as if he had as much knowledge on them as the headmaster himself.

Tsukune gulped audibly before composing himself, "Um, we didn't come here for trouble, we just want to mail some letters to our families. So if you don't mind, we'd really appreciate it sir" he said smiling nervously as he motioned to give the driver his stack of letters, Huey and Riley nodded before doing the same.

The Bus Driver continued to smile but it became less sadistically intimidating and more mirthfully warm, "Sure, no problem kids, is that all you need" he asked in a calm manner, surprising the three teens before they shook their heads no.

He merely continued to smile as he took their letters, "Look kids, I know we've put you in a pretty screwed up position here, but don't worry about it too much, we sent you on that mission last night because we knew you could handle it, trust me boys, you're not as expendable as you think you are. We will only send you on another mission when we know that you can handle it, and it won't be anytime soon so you can take a breather for now alright." he exclaimed warmly, making the wound up tight boys sigh in relief a little.

Riley wiped the metaphorical sweat off of his forehead and smiled slightly at the bus drivers words, "I ain't gonna lie, hearing straight from the horse's mouth that we ain't gonna die no time soon is a real fucking relief man"

The bus driver nodded, "No problem kid, keeping in touch with your folks is commendable boys, I'll make sure to get them where they need to go. Your Grandfather has been worried sick about you two" he said looking at Huey and Riley.

The two brothers raised a collective eyebrow at his revelation, before looking at each other with disbelieving looks on their faces.

"You can't be talking about our Grandad, he's probably throwing parties every night with overpriced sake and high-maintenance Japanese Women." Huey said with a mirthful half-smirk on his face.

The Bus Driver merely let out a friendly chuckle, "Believe what you want kid, well, it's time I took off, take care boys"

They three human teens nodded, before walking off the bus, Tsukune smiled cheekily and waved as the Driver put the bus in drive, "Thanks again sir" he said cheerfully.

the Driver's nodded his head before his warm smile became a sinister smirk once more, "Don't let that make you three get comfortable though, you kids better keep on training, there will inevitably be more rowdy student's you will have to throw down with"

Huey stepped forward, putting his hand up in a stopping gesture before he began to drive off, "Wait, I know we're just pawns in the big picture, but can you at least tell us what we're up against, who runs Sector Yokai and how large is the operation?" He asked the mysterious man.

The man looked conflicted for a moment before sighing in resignation, he turned to the pleading Afro headed revolutionary, and elaborated, "Alright kid, I guess we owe you that much" he said before frowning heavily as he began to explain.

"Sector Yokai is simply a code name they use to appear as if they were an officially Government Sanctioned Organization. We know, because we have spies in every one of the Human World's Superpowers, we've found no signs of such a corporation in their records. For the last 200 years, their history has been coded in secrecy. So much so, that even our most skilled espionage agents cannot gather much information before they either have to abort …. or are Killed In Action. They use many aliases but the one true alias our sources agree on is the name: The Masons of Shadow! They are a ruthless Secret Society who use their public status as a Private Military Operation as a front. Around 70 years ago, The Masons of Shadow, also publicly known as PW Corporation began purchasing the largest bioengineering, research and development firms in the world. They've been kidnapping and dissecting monsters of all kinds for centuries, studying their Youki for their own purposes. They're a bunch of scumbags that attract humans who have had their lives uprooted by Monsters in some way, shape or form by operating on the moral front of protecting the world from the so-called Supernatural, but in reality, they just want to use our energy force for power and world domination. We don't know exactly who founded the organization but we do know that the perpetrator was a European Man whose descendants are most likely still secretly running the corporation and currently living in luxury in The United States of America." He spat firmly with a sinister glare on his face.

Huey had been listening intently at the Driver's words as he explained what he knew, or maybe what he was willing to share. He gasped at his last line before narrowing his eyes at the revelation. "Modern-Day Babylon, I'm not surprised" he said bitterly before he grinned ever so slightly at the Driver before putting his right hand out.

"Thanks … you're not all that bad, I appreciate you providing us with this information." He said warmly as the Bus Driver simply stared at his extended hand in slight shock before chuckling mirthfully and reaching out to shake it.

"Of course kid …... I know you're just going to use that information to find out more about those bastards." he exclaimed matter-of-factly with a friendly smirk before letting go of the half-grinning Afro-headed revolutionary's hand. Huey nodded affirmatively as he hopped off of the busses steps

Riley gave him a friendly smirk, "Next time you come through, how bout you hit me up wit one of those cigars my dude" he said as he gave the man the peace sign.

Tsukune cringed in disgust at Riley's request before smiling himself, "You've been a great help sir, we'll see you again soon!" He said as he waved cheerfully.

The mysterious Driver gave the three of them one last friendly grin before tipping his hat and driving off into the dark tunnel.

Tsukune continued to smile as he rubbed the back of his head awkwardly, "I've gotta say guys, that went a lot better than I expected. I was getting really worried we'd be sent on some suicide mission pretty soon." He remarked as Riley nodded in agreement.

Huey put his hands in his pockets and let a small smile on his face as he allowed himself a deep breath of hope for the first time in nearly a week. He merely let himself be in the moment for a few seconds and let himself feel everything. The cool breeze bellowing through his large afro, the feeling of his shoes in the dirt, the feeling of temporary ease that he allowed himself to feel. His thoughts shifted to Mizore, would she be able to forgive him? He at least had to try and win her affections back, they weren't safe by any means, he wasn't foolish enough to believe that, but the Driver's revelation allowed him to feel as if he could spend a little bit more time here with his friends.

Riley smirked happily before walking over to his brother and slapping his back roughly, making the previously serene teen yelp in surprise before glaring irritatedly at his cockily smirking brother.

"Ah shit, here come McHater again, lighten up nigga, you heard him, we've can start bustin Monsters again instead of a bunch of Call of Duty rejects. Now you can stop being so sexually frustrated and get it on with yo girl man" he exclaimed cheekily

Huey simply continued to glare at him before giving a retort, "Don't get too comfortable Riley, now that we have the basics, we've still got a lot of research to do. We gone need to up our gear too man, and our training. We might not have to raid anymore facilities for a while, but who knows how long a while really is?" He questioned firmly.

Tsukune walked up to the discussing brothers and was about to add himself into the conversation before he heard a very familiar scream that caused him to look up.

"HEY GUYS!"

The three boys perked up at the familiar voice before looking up to the treeline to see a flying Kurumu carrying Moka and Yukari, all of them had frantic looks on their faces. Riley gulped when he met the blue-haired Succubus's eyes, he began to panic as he quickly tried to think of how he was going to break the truth to her, the whole truth. He wasn't sure how she would take it, but as she began to get closer, he gazed into her eyes again and was confused to find that she wasn't staring at him with hate, anger, or sadness but instead with a strange focused look in her eyes as she kept her gaze on him exclusively

Kurumu took a dive down to the rocky ground and flapped her wings to slow her descent before dropping them on the ground. She tensed her wings before looking at the flinching Riley again and flew right at him.

Riley's eyes widened in fright as she began to quickly fly over to him, this was it, he was royally screwed, now she would bring out her claws and slice him up like a thanksgiving turkey, she was crazy like that, and it was all his fault. As the girl got within 10 feet he closed his eyes, ready to accept his fate!

~Smooch~

Riley's eyes widened as he realized he wasn't dead, far from it actually. He tasted Kurumu's peach flavored lips on his, her tongue forcing itself through his lips. He didn't waste anymore time thinking, he gave into the warm feeling in his chest and wrapped his arms around her slim waist tightly as he began to kiss her back with just as much passion.

Kurumu gripped his green blazer as she euphorically moaned into his embrace. She began to coil her wings around his body to pull him as close as possible, while she continued to wrestle with his tongue in a symbiotic dance of passion.

Riley felt like he was on cloud 9! She wasn't angry! Wait, why wasn't she angry? He hadn't had the chance to explain himself yet, could it be the link between them that Huey had talked about, if so, then what else did she know?

Kurumu moaned as she pulled back from her Destined One with an audible pop with a small trail of saliva on her bottom lip. She looked into the awestruck eyes of her boyfriend before smiling warmly and pulling his left ear Into her mouth. "It's Ok studmuffin, I know it was a misunderstanding, right?" She whispered contenly.

Riley smiled happily as he gave her a peck on her forehead before elaborating. "Yeah girl, I'm sorry for making you cry, I was so tired that I wasn't thinking straight. I meant that I decided to go with Tsukune to meet up with y'all cause I care about you KK, I wanted to make you happy baby! I-I-I, I Love You Kurumu, and I'm real sorry for not telling you sooner!"

Kurumu felt happy tears come to her eyes as she smiled widely before putting her head into his toned chest, "Oh, Riley, you finally said it, I Love You too! I'm sorry for overreacting like that, I made you feel miserable all day"

Riley merely shook his head before his smile dropped slightly, "Kurumu …. look I-I've gotta tell you something, I want you to brace yourself cause I don know how you gone react to this but I-" he said solemnly, he was about to continue before Kurumu looked up and put her finger to his lips to silence him.

"Riley ….. I know!" She said simply making him gasp In surprise both at her declaration and the loving smile on her face.

"But I don't care, it doesn't matter to me if you're a Human or not. You already saved me once by saving the boys in the school that day. I was so hurt and desperate to help my people that I had convinced myself that I was doing what was necessary, b-but your words made me realize that I was just being selfish. So, I-It doesn't matter if your human or not Riley …. because you're the best man I've ever known, and I want to be with you for the rest of my life, My Destined One!" She cried out. Making the wide-eyed dread head chuckle happily before lifting her and twirling her.

As the happy couple celebrated in their own little world, Huey looked around but he couldn't find the purple-haired beauty he had grown attracted to.

Yukari ran up to him and began to explain why they were there, "Huey, we need your help, it's Mizore, we don't know where she is, it turns out Kotsubo has been stalking us for the last few days and she went to take him on alone!" She said frantically.

Huey felt his heart stop, she didn't, what in her right mind would compel her to fight that monster on her own? He clenched his fish as he snarled, he couldn't believe she'd do something so stupid, what they hell was she thinking?

"WHAT!" He yelled almost instinctively. "Damn, why the hell would she do that, we've gotta find her, Now! He exclaimed as he began to quickly pace over to his backpack he had put the letters into.

Tsukune raised a questioning eyebrow, "Huey, what are you doing; Why are you looking in your backpack?" He asked as the Afro-beaded revolutionary strapped on his Power Fists before pulling a tactical utility belt out of his bag and tossing it over to Tsukune. "Here's your answer"

Tsukune caught it and glanced at its contents, it was the same belt the three of them had worn last night. It was equipped with loaded dual M9's, and a utility knife. He smirked as he wrapped the belt around his waist and clipped it into place. The sight of the firearms in his holsters made Moka cringe in unease.

"I know you have to use them to fight, Tsukune, b-but I really don't like those very much." She said nervously as she stared at the intimidating handguns.

Tsukune checked his ammo before looking at her uneasy visage and simply smiled, "Don't you worry, I'm not going to hurt you with these, I strictly use these to protect my friends, like you Moka" he said making the girl smile at his declaration, before curling her grin sultrily. She slowly put her arms around his neck, making him nervously chuckle as he felt her sizable bust on his chest. She let out a cute giggle before giving him a small peck on the lips.

"You know Tsukune … you smell really, reallyy good right now, just a little taste!" she whispered out huskily as she slowly moved closer to his neck ready to feast. Tsukune sighed before grinning slightly, "I seriously don't get how my blood tastes so good to you, but if it'll make you happy Moka then im ok with it" He said as he moved his collar to the side to give her an opening.

"Oh Tsukune!" She screamed out excitedly before taking a gentle bite into his exposed neck, making him cringe ever so slightly.

"Capu-Chu" she moaned as she continued to suck more out of the brunette boy than she probably should have been. 'Oh Tsukune, it's been so long since I've been able to taste you like this. O-Ohh it's positively orgasmic' she thought to herself as she began to grind her body against his, making her shiver at his moans as he used his hands to pull her even closer to him in response. She suddenly yelped as Huey grabbed her shoulder and pulled her off of him, "You can suck him dry later Moka, we've gotta go" he said as he strapped his Katana Blade on his back. His tactical belt was already clipped onto him as was Riley's.

Moka felt a small part of her want to pout but she withheld it and began to focus on the task at hand again. Mizore was out there in the woods, alone. With Kotsubo just waiting to pounce onto her and take what he believed to be his. She clenched her fist to steel herself before turning to her Afro-headed big brother figure.

"Your right Huey, where do you guys think she could have gone?" she asked the group firmly.

Riley put his hand to his chin in a thoughtful manner before signing, "This damn dimension is huge, how we gone find her in this place!"

Huey's eyes narrowed as he began to realize where exactly she would have gone, "I know where she's going to ….. and it's not good, let's go!" he whispered cryptically before taking off into the woods without so much as a second glance. Yukari gasped as he raced past her

"HUEY, Wait for us!"

################

Mizore took a deep breath as she walked through the darkening woods. She was no coward but she couldn't help but be spooked by the crows that seemed to permeate every corner of the treeline, with every audible crunch of the dead leaves on the ground that she walked on she felt her fear growing more intense. She narrowed her eyes, she wouldn't let that stop her from finishing this. Kotsubo was her problem, she wouldn't stand for any of her friends getting hurt because the bastard wanted to get to her.

"Kotsubo! Quit hiding like a coward and come face me already" she yelled as she continued to trek forward in the seemingly never ending forest. There was no response, she stopped and looked around momentarily to try and spot the man, just as she began to fear that he had instead decided to go after her friends, she heard his sinister voice that made her gasp audibly, her knees wobbled with fear.

"C'mon, you didn't really think I'd let you go that easily, did you?" his voice seemed to be projected by his own Youki, and it was coming from the clearing directly in front of her path.

Mizore bit her lip hard as she forced herself to stop shivering, she wouldn't let him control her emotions, "You don't scare me, show yourself, and i'll freeze you solid you lying bastard" she said coldly as she continued to follow the sound of his voice into the clearing. She knew where she was currently going, it was the same tree she had met Huey for the first time, it was also the tree where she had met him as well. She had only come to that tree on the cliff face that day in hopes of seeing him there, but instead she had fatefully encountered Huey instead.

"We sure had some fun times didn't we, you never did put out though, I mean seriously, it wasn't like anyone else wanted you anyway!" he chuckled out cruelly. Mizore's lip began to quiver as she felt cold tears form in her eyes.

She sobbed slightly before clenched her eyes shut as she tried to quell the tears that threatened to fall down her face. "That's not true! Huey loves me, I know he does" she yelled out insecurely, making the hidden man laugh loudly at her.

"HAHAHA, Who are you trying to convince here, me or yourself, all that brat does is push you away, just like everyone else. If you really think he cares about you, then you're even more pathetically desperate than I thought!"

As Mizore walked out into the clearing, she laid her teary eyes on that beautiful leafy tree and began to clutch her chest as she struggled to regain her composure. She slowly walked over to the cliff face and fell on her knees in defeat. 'I can't do this, it hurts too much. I thought I could but I can't, Kotsubo is right ….. I really am worthless, so much for saving myself.' The tears began to flow like a river from her face now as she sobbed loudly.

Kotsubo walked out from a tree behind the girl and began to chuckle coldly as he slowly walked towards the crying Snow Woman. Each step the man took behind her caused her to be filled with more dread, she was utterly terrified, she knew that she needed to move, but she found that she was rooted to her current spot on the grassy ground.

Kotsubo smirked evilly as he stopped behind her before grabbing her shoulders and yanking her upright causing her to yelp out in fear. He pulled her back into his chest sinesterly and began to caress her flat tummy.

Mizore sobbed fearfully as he continued to explore her body, she felt his hot breath inch closer to her ear. She inwardly cursed how pathetic she was, she couldn't even fight back.

"You really were the perfect target you know, the funny thing about Monster's and Human's is that when it comes to our social habits, we aren't all that different. We crave bonds, most of us do whatever we can to develop them. Many of us go so far as to abandon our true identities just so we can fit in with the rest of society, kukuku, it's exceptionally common with women. That's why the girls in my class would have been too risky, they all had friends, people to call their own. But you, you were this cute little lonely girl who was so desperate for love that she actually believed the act I put on about actually caring about her. You ate it up so much that for a moment I thought I was dreaming, you made it so easy for me My Love. Just like you are Now!"

At that last line she felt something in her shatter, he was right, she was letting him take advantage of her again, without so much as a fight. Without even noticing it she felt her nails digging into the palms of her hands, she heard herself snarl as her brow began to deeply furrow hatefully, 'NO, I won't let him do this to me again, I will fight back, It's what Huey would do' she thought to herself as she regained her resolve.

"You're right Kotsubo, I am making it too easy for you, aren't I!" she whispered, the fierceness in her voice catching him completely off guard. "Well then how bout I turn up the JUICE!" She yelled as her body began to emit a strong icy aura that froze his body into place.

Kotsubo struggled as he tried to free himself from the cold, jagged block of ice that held him captive. He looked up and flinched at the furious look in the Snow Woman's eyes. She raised her arm and began to smirk coldly as she slowly lifted his frozen frame off the ground and began to position him over the cliff, not seeing the discrete smirk on his own face.

"Any last words, My Love?" She said sarcastically as she continued to hold him over the cliffside.

"Just three: You're a Fool Mizore" he proclaimed with a smirk, Mizore's glare intensified at his callous answer. "Fine then, Goodbye Kotsubo" she growled before dropping him off of the side of the cliff face. She watched as the suspiciously still smirking man fell into the ocean with a stoic expression on her face. She sighed in relief, it was finally over, she did it, she was able to face her fears and get the job done. She let a small smile form on her face before she began to turn around and walk away.

"KYAAAAA"

She didn't get far however as she felt a strong and slimy tentacle pull her down to her stomach and attempt to pull her into the seas. She grabbed on to an extended root of the leafy tree and held onto it with all of her might. She felt her heart stop as she looked down at the creature holding her to find that it was Kotsubo himself!

Mizore continued to cry out in effort to pull herself up but she felt herself slowly slipping more and more. 'Shit! That bottom-feeder's monster form just had to be a bottom-feeder, didn't it' she thought to herself comically, trying to banish the fear that was once again beginning to take root in her heart.

"Hgnn, Let …. go of me" she yelled out in a strained voice as she continued to try and pull herself up. She was beginning to seriously panic, and the malevolent, wide toothy smile Kotsubo was giving her wasn't making it any better!

"No, no, no, I don't think so Shirayuki! You see I can't afford any more rumors about me going around, so I'm just going to drag you down with me!" He proclaimed wickedly, as he began to snake his tentacle further up her leg.

Mizore gasped in fear as she began to feel the tree root severing under the weight of both Kotsubo's Monster Form and her own body weight. She felt tears form in her eyes for the utmost time that night. 'I guess this is it! No one is going to come to save me this time. I'm sorry Moka, Kurumu, Yukari, I should have listened to you guys. Huey …. I'm sorry that I said all of those awful things to you, I wanted my first kiss to be with you, I wanted my first time to be with you, I wanted to be by your side for the rest of my life, I just wish I had a chance to tell you how much I loved you before I die!'

~SNAP~

Mizore didn't scream, she closed her eyes and accepted her fate. In the end, all she would ever be was a lonely girl, misunderstood by everyone ….. except the one person who she had pushed away.

"MIIZZOORREE"

The Snow Woman gasped in ecstasy at the sound of the frantic voice that called out to her. She felt his gloved hand catch her arm. She looked up and smiled wider than she thought possible at the sight of the man she loved struggling to pull her up with a strained smirk on his face.

"HUEY, IT'S YOU" she cried out ecstatically.

The Afro-headed revolutionary nodded his head, "Right on time, huh!" He quipped before snarling at the sight of the animalistically glaring Kraken that still held on to the Snow Woman's leg. He wanted to pull out his M9 from his belt holster but he was 100% sure that if he let go of the grass roots in his left hand, Kotsubo would yank the both of them into the Red Sea!

Kotsubo snarled venomously at the sight of the Black teen, every time he got close, every time he was about to get his way, that black bastard seemed to be right around the corner! "BACK OFF FREEMAN, SHE'S MINE!" he screamed at the top of his lungs as he launched a tentacle up to his neck.

Huey looked at the rapidly approaching tentacle with terror, there was nothing he could do. If he tried to electrocute the tentacle with his left hand, they would fall into the water. Suddenly he felt five pairs of hands grab onto his jacket and pull him up with all of their might. He gasped as the tentacle just missed his neck. Huey smiled in relief and with the help of his friends, Huey grasped the girl's right shoulder, shifted all of his weight to his back and pulled Mizore up onto the grassy field. He quickly rose and grabbed the katana blade off of his back and slashed the tentacle still wrapped around Mizore's leg, making the Kraken scream in agony before falling into the ocean.

At the sight of the giant splash Kotsubo's large frame caused when he plummeted into the body of water, Huey fell onto his rear, allowing a half smile to grace his features as he let out a deeply relieved sigh, he had made it in time, just barely! He gasped in surprise when he felt the sudden weight of Mizore's arms tightly wrapped around his neck. As he took in the feeling of her tear stricken face rubbing up against his and her delightfully cool hair that fell against his neck and shoulders, he felt a sense of relief and peace that was foreign to him. He gently wrapped his arms around the crying girl's back.

Huey put his hand on the sorrowful girl's right cheek, "It's alright now Mizore, I'm here ….. We're here!" He whispered in her ear making Mizore slightly perk up before smiling adoringly.

The Snow Woman blushed before entwining her own hand with Huey's on her face and squeezing tenderly "I knew you would come Huey, you have a very strange habit of showing up at the last minute to save me!" she whispered happily making him stare at her in enchantment for a moment before a half grin came onto his face.

Moka gave the vulnerable Snow Woman a teary-eyed smile, "We're so glad we made it in time Mizore!"

Tsukune smiled warmly at the awestruck girl before scratching the back of his head, nervously chuckling a bit. "Well, what did you expect? We're friends Mizore, all of us!

Yukari smiled as well, happy that the girl seemed to be unharmed before frowning at her recklessness. "Please don't do that to us again Mizore, we were worried sick about you!"

As Huey began to stand, he put out his hand. Mizore looked at it almost absentmindedly for a few seconds, before taking his hand with a happy smile as he pulled her to her feet. The sight of all of their concerned faces melted her cold heart. They actually came for her, they really did care about her. She felt a lone tear fall as she reveled in the warm feeling before she frowned and retorted.

"I-I'm sorry for all of the trouble I caused you, you shouldn't have come for me, really!"

Kurumu stood a few feet away with her Destined One as the rest group began to crowd around the Snow Woman. She bared her teeth as she felt her fist shake in anger, before slowly walking up to Mizore.

Mizore heard her sassy friend walk up to her and turned around to apologize but instead felt the Succubus's hands roughly grabbing her jacket for the second time that day, this time her grip yanked a few strands of hair off. "Ah, Kurumu?" Mizore yelped as she felt Kurumu furiously yank her into her furious face

Huey tensed before advancing on the volatile Succubus, "Kurumu, stand dow-" he wasn't able to finish however as he felt a hand yank him back from his jacket, stopping him from advancing, he looked to his right to see an unexpected sight. It was no one else than his own brother glaring daggers at him. His message was clear, 'don't interfere.' Nonetheless, Huey's own eyes widened in shock at the sight of his brother's gaze, it was so serious, so emotionally mature, was this really Riley Freeman? Maybe his connection with Kurumu was having more of an impact on him than he had originally thought?

"You Selfish Little Bitch! What the hell were you thinking going after that bastard on your own. Just because you don't give a damn about your own life doesn't mean that we don't. Didn't you understand what Huey told you in that forest last week, "We fight together, not alone." If you ever pull something like this again, I'll Kill you Myself, Do You Hear Me" she screamed out passionately.

Mizore looked into the furious, but concerned eyes of the blue-haired Succubus, she gasped as she realized what she had done. In her decision to take down Kotsubo, she had abandoned the only people who cared about her. What she had wanted her entire life, was currently stretching out her short sleeve jacket: True Friendship! Kurumu cared about her to such an extent, that she was driven to anger at the callus way she had abandoned them. Mizore shook the happy tears out of her eyes before smiling warmly.

"Loud and Clear Kurumu! I'm sorry for worrying you, all of you!" she whispered out before bowing her head, making Kurumu's furious gaze significantly subside at the repentant look on her face. She felt the tears in her own eyes fall before she quickly hugged the mirthful Snow Woman.

"D-Damn it, just don't do that to us again, please! We're your friends Mizore, let us be there for you!"

As the girls continued to talk amongst themselves, Huey, RIley and Tsukune walked over to the cliff face. Huey took a deep breath as he composed himself before snapping his eyes open. He took off the two Black Power Fist gloves he had on his hands and threw them to Riley and Tsukune respectively. "Put those on you two ….. this fight isn't over just yet!" he whispered eerily, as the two human students nodded without a word. Huey unsheathed his Katana blade once again, and tensed as he saw the water below bubble violently before bursting open with a blood curdling scream from Kotsubo as he quickly climbed up the stone wall.

Riley glared at the quickly approaching Kraken with slight fear before activating his left Power Fist to prepare for the ensuing battle. This wasn't an ideal situation by far, he was still really sore from all of the action from yesterday night, and if he was still not at 100%, he was willing to bet Grandad's beloved Dorothy that neither Huey or Tsukune were either! "Yo, Tsukune, quit sitting there like a white nigga in a horror flick and pull Moka's Rosary off already" He yelled frantically to his brunette friend.

Tsukune seemed to snap out of his trance at Riley's words, before nodding in agreement. He turned to the pinkette and grabbed her left hand making the girl blush and smile shyly "Alright, Moka, are you ready?" he asked quickly.

Moka gulped slightly, it had been so long since she had let Inner Moka out, she wasn't entirely sure she was ready to take her place in that seal for too long. She pinched herself, pulling her mind out of its negative train of thought. She had to do this, to protect her friends!

"Yes, Tsukune, quickly do it now!" she exclaimed.

Tsukune nodded his head in confirmation before reaching for Moka's Rosary, he didn't get far however as he was quickly struck by the Kraken's tentacle, he screamed in pain as he went flying only to land in front of a tree. Kotsubo used another tentacle to launch himself onto the grassy ground directly in front of them.

Moka's eyes widened in horror as she observed her friend on the floor clutching his ribs in pain "TSUKUNE!" Moka yelled before she heard the obnoxious laugh of the deranged Gym Teacher.

"There's one pest down! Hey Huey, Might you want to be next?" Kotsubo asked sarcastically as he bared his shark-like teeth at the group of young teens.

Huey snarled angrily at the spiteful bastard before he felt the wind shift monstrously all of a sudden. The group looked at the flabbergasted look on Moka's face as she looked down to realize her Rosary was gone. Tsukune slowly began to rise before chuckling as he held on to the Rosary in his hand like a lifeline. "Heh, heh, I-I got it" he said to himself weakly before attempting to steady his dizzied body on the tree he landed near.

"Ugh, Finally!"

Moka's body exploded in a burst of red light, blinding everyone around her!

A Swarm of Bats completely Surrounded the transforming girl, as a column of pure Youki began to erupt from her very being, making everyone stare in awe at the power being released by the usually frail looking girl.

"Kurumu, Yukari and Mizore put their arms out in front of them in an attempt to block the ferocious winds that threatened to blind them due to the sheer speed and power of the Youki hurricane.

'Holy crap, this is insane! Was she even trying when she was fighting me before?"

'M-Moka, what in the world is going on here, are you really an S - Class Super Monster?'

'... Show Off!'

Kotsubo felt his tentacles curl in fear at the sheer amount of Youki being released by his new opponent. His eyes were so wide they began to go red. 'N-No, this has gotta be a nightmare, there's no way a student should have this kind of power. This almost feels like …. A Vampire?'

As the light began to die down, they began to be able to see the transformed girl in all of her Vampiric glory. Her pretty Pink hair was now a daunting Silver, her already fully figured form became even more voluptuous. But the biggest change was her eyes. Her previously innocent gaze became slitted, cold, experienced and bloodthirsty. The newly transformed Moka put her left hand on her hip, she couldn't help but display a wicked smirk as she flicked the hair out of her eyes, staring daggers at the terrified Kotsubo.

Moka looked behind her to find Tsukune walking back to the group, holding his ribs, he seemed to be in serious pain at the moment. The silver-haired vampire frowned, she felt that strange feeling in her stomach again, was she …. concerned about this boy? She furrowed her brow slightly, No, it couldn't be, maybe the other Moka had a fascination with the brunette but she certainly did not!

"Are you alright Tsukune? I'd hate to have to find a new blood fountain." she asked with a faux caring tone, the cold smirk on her face was almost playful in nature.

Tsukune sighed slightly in irritation, it was still unsettling to say the least looking at the kind and caring girl he had grown attached to, acting so drastically different. He honestly liked Inner Moka, she wasn't his Moka but she was still Moka he wanted to be close with her as well but the girl had a real knack for putting everyone around her down. "Just dandy Moka, I'd hate to take away your only source of enjoyment in life" he grunted sarcastically, making Inner Moka smirk at his comeback.

Riley smirked in excitement as he gazed at the Silver-haired femme fatale for the first time in a month, "Heh, heh, heh, Yeahh, the Dominatrix herself is back in the building! Whatchu waiting fo, kick this nigga's octo-ass so we can seal you back up again!" he proclaimed laughing.

Moka lightly glared at the dread headed nuisance, the swine had the nerve to ruin her spectacular entrance! "Riley, honey, if I hear one more word out of you I'll shove that chain of yours up your rear …..Link, by, Link!" She exclaimed with a dangerous edge to her voice, making Riley shut up fairly quickly with the knowledge that she probably would do it.

"That's what I thought!" she began to elongate her arms to the side as she shamelessly stretched out in front of her opponent, making him glare at her implication.

"Damn it, I don't care what you are, don't you dare look down upon me, when I take you down I'll just have to teach you some manners little girl"

The awakened Vampire finished her stretches before playfully smirking at the Kraken, "My apologies, i've been asleep for a bit longer than I am used to. Unfortunately, we just can't seem to find any worthy opponents for your's truly" She remarked arrogantly as she dramatically put her palm to her chest.

Her grin dropped before she yawned, seemingly bored at the caliber of foe she would be forced to deal with. "In all honesty, I truly expected more from you" she said, making the Kraken glare even more hatefully at her. "I could just sit back and allow these weaklings to deal with another of their ilk, but I've decided to grace you with the honor of being taught your place today" She proclaimed arrogantly, making everyone in the immediate area glare at the disgustingly overconfident woman. It only made it worse that she wasn't just all talk and really was about that action!

Huey and Mizore raised an eyebrow at the rather direct insult at everyone in the vicinity. "She really loves to hear herself talk, doesn't she?" Mizore exclaimed stoically. Huey sighed before simply nodding his head in agreement.

Huey looked at the still red-eyed Mizore and gently grabbed her left hand, making her blush at his contact. He gave her a small playful smirk, "C'mon Mizore, no way in hell are we letting this showboater finish our fight for us. Let's take care of this, just you and me!"

Mizore gasped as she looked back into the confident eyes of her Afro-headed hero, she felt a happy smirk come onto her face before meeting his gaze and nodding ecstatically "I'll have to warn you though, sometimes I just really don't know how to hold back!"

Huey chuckled before the two of them began to walk in between Moka and the still frightened but enraged Kotsubo. The Vampire crossed her arms in irritation, raising a critical eyebrow at their interference, before giving them a mocking smirk.

"Why don't you two cubs get out my way and shower each other with kisses while Momma Bear takes care of the big bad meanie!" she said sarcastically, she felt her smirk grow at the pissed off looks she got from the two.

Mizore's hair and arms began to slowly morph into jagged ice, her complexion grew even more pale and frosty. She glared at the arrogant Vampire and attempted to give a scathing retort before she felt lightly gasped, feeling Huey's hand on her shoulder. His gaze was still locked onto Kotsubo, but his intentions were clear. "I know you've been asleep for a while Moka, but we've got unfinished business to take care off, if you want to step in after I've cut off another tentacle or two then fine by me, but for now, wait your turn!"

Moka glared daggers into the Afro-headed revolutionaries back, before taking in a deep breath to calm herself. "Fine, you two can have your fun. It would take me exactly 7 seconds to deal with this fool, so i'll give you 30! After that, I'll swoop in and attempt to satisfy my lust for battle on this weakling. It'll only take one kick anyway" she acquiesced with a nonchalant shrug.

"Ay Huey, catch," Riley yelled as he tossed the two Black Power Fists that were previously on Tsukune and his hands. Huey turned around and caught the two electrical gloves before nodding in appreciation as he put them on.

Huey grimaced as he reached behind him and pulled out his Katana blade from its sheath. "Mizore, I've got a plan, we're gonna work together on this one. He relies on his tentacles for combat, so I want you to freeze any that come our way solid. If you can't reach them, then i'll cut them down, once we've got him reeling back i'll knock him out cold, no pun intended! Alright, are you with me?"

The Snow Woman chuckled at his totally intentional pun before nodding in agreement. "I'll always be with you Huey!" she said with a shy blush on her face making his focused expression brighten slightly before he grinned at her warmly.

Kotsubo was wide eyed at what was taking place in front of him, "You cheeky brats! You're just lining up to be the first ones to die. I'll rip your limbs off, piece by piece." He yelled out hysterically, before he used two tentacles to launch himself in the air. He rotated his body before whipping out his tentacles in a slamming motion.

"MIZORE! Stay on me!" Huey yelled as the Snow Woman nodded in agreement before the two quickly lunged to the right, they felt the ground tremble as they the two powerful appendages had barely missed them.

The enraged Kraken snarled at his failed attempt to crush his enemies before chuckling darkly, "Well then, guess i'm just gonna have to get serious about this, won't I" he said as he used four of his tentacles to lift himself up off of his feet. He smirked murderously as he stood tall over the unnerved Huey and Mizore.

Mizore subconsciously moved a couple inches closer to the Afro-headed revolutionary who's steely glare narrowed at the impending challenge in front of them. "Remember Mizore, stay on my ass, I'm gonna need you to give me some cover fire while we advance, alright!" he whispered, making her nod her head stoically, a look of equal fury in her own eyes.

"Let's take this asshole down, I want to enjoy this!"

Huey sprinted towards the enraged Kraken with Mizore on his rear. Kotsubo snarled and launched a tentacle whip to his face, Huey tensed before quickly rolling diagonally to avoid the strike. Mizore glared at the sight of the tentacle ripping the roots of the grass out of the soil before freezing it in place.

"I'll freeze you solid and break you into pieces you perverted fish" She yelled as she willed a large column of icicles to attack him from below his tentacles. Kotsubo grimaced at the sharp knives of ice that continued to come up from the ground. He began to rapidly retreat as he nimbly maneuvered the barrage that seemed to keep on coming from the ground. He ducked at a sudden Icicle that arched out of the ground at a 70 degree angle. He groaned in pain at the feeling of a small cut on one of his tentacles.

'Damn that girl, if this keeps up i'm gonna become a calamari dish'

Kotsubo coiled all seven of his remaining tentacles around him tightly before yelling in effort as he quickly rotated, sending his tentacles into whips of centrifugal force. The speed in which he swung his already strong appendages shattered the ice columns around him. He smirked in satisfaction but felt his smirk drop abruptly as he saw a concerning smirk on the girl's face. He gasped in realization,

"S-Shit, where is that little basta- AARRGHH!"

Kotsubo screamed in agony as he felt Huey's Katana Blade pierce the blubber on his back. Huey grabbed onto his sword in Kotsubo's Kraken flesh before harshly ripping out the blade. He quickly sheathed his sword before charging his Power Fists, electric currents began to run off of the gloves before he screamed out a battle cry as he repeatedly began to punch the area he had just stabbed with all of his strength. With each blow, the sound of Kotsubo's roars of agony grew louder, only drowned out by the thunderclaps the impact of his electrified fist generated on impact.

"STAY *punch* - AWAY *punch* - FROM *punch* - MIZORE! *Punch*"

Kotsubo's blank eyes regained their consciousness as his rage began to eventually overpower his intense pain. He growled animalistically as he forced a tentacle to wrap itself around Huey's right knee, he squeezed in his painful convulsions. Huey screamed in pain as he heard a disturbingly loud crack before Kotsubo lifted him and threw him towards the blushing Mizore, making her break out of her trance and catch him in mid-air with a grunt of effort.

While Kotsubo continued to twitch in agony as the aftershocks of Huey's intense barrage of attacks, Huey slowly began to stand up only to feel an intense sharp pain in his knee, with a groan of pain he began to fall to the ground again before Mizore caught him and wrapped her right arm around his waist and hoisted his his left arm over her shoulder. "Huey, are you alright?" she asked gently, making him force a grin on his face. Kotsubo had probably fractured his Knee, hopefully it wasn't worse!

"Y-Yeah I'm good!" He whispered out as he kept as much pressure as he could off of his left leg. Mizore shook her head at his stubbornness before gently sitting him on the ground much to his disappointment.

"No, you're not good Huey, you're amazing!" She whispered to him before kissing him on the cheek making him perk up in surprise at her sudden gesture. She rose and turned back to Kotsubo, "Sit this one out Huey, you've earned it! You've done more for me than I ever thought anyone would ….. Especially for being a Human nonetheless" She exclaimed, playfully sticking her tongue out at his flabbergasted expression.

Kotsubo growled in rage as he tried to center himself enough to move again, 'That little bastard got me good, didn't he. There's no way I'm gonna let a bunch of kids get the best of me, I don't even care about that stuck up little Ice bitch anymore. I'll kill all of these damn rejects' he thought to himself before using all of his strength to launch himself into the air, making the two fighters look up at him with fearful expressions.

"Time to Die Kiddies! I'll make you watch as I rip off your friend's arms slowly Mizore, as a gift to you!" he yelled sadistically as he reared back his remaining six tentacles before launching them all down at Huey and Mizore at breakneck speeds.

Mizore looked fearfully at their approaching doom like it was in slow motion. 'What can I do? I don't care if I die, but Huey's only a human and he's tapped out. No! I won't let it end like this, all he's done is protect me, and so help me god, I Will Save Him!' Mizore cleared her mind before taking a deep breath to gather all the power she possibly could, she screamed at the top of her lungs as she thrusted her arms forward with all her might.

"KYAAAAAAAA!"

A mighty shield of jagged ice materialized over the two students. Kotsubo looked on in horror as he realized he couldn't stop his tentacles in time before they slammed directly into the icicle shield, stabbing directly into all of his appendages making him shriek out in the most intense pain he had felt yet before his body fell to the ground. Mizore smirked sadistically at the look on his face before willing the Ice entrapping his tentacles to frost over and slowly move up his appendages.

"Time's Up!" an irritated voice shouted!

Mizore gasped as she turned around to look at the glaring Moka, "He's all yours Moka, I've had my fun" she yelled out with a satisfied smirk as she gazed at the horrified expression of the downed Kotsubo.

Moka charged the terrified Kraken, Tsukune flinched heavily at the wind hitting his face from Moka's sadistic fastbreak. 'Whoa, I almost forgot how crazy fast she is!'

"After a beating of that caliber, I'm sure you're already well aware, but just in case, it's time that you Know Your Place" she yelled as she planted a colossal jump sidekick to the perverted Krakens face before backflipping off of it, sending him flying into the ocean with a loud splash.

Moka landed on the ground with an audible "thud". She turned around with a bored expression on her face as she walked back to the group. "Well, as usual, that was a colossal waste of my time!" she remarked, annoyed!

Kurumu crossed her arms and glared at her, "Whatever, you're the one who said that she "wanted out", don't start complaining now!"

Mizore lifted the flinching Huey again and put his arm around her shoulder, "C'mon Huey, let's move!" She whispered to him.

Huey used his left leg to push himself off the ground with her help before looking at her with a guilty expression, "Mizore … I-I wanted to say tha-"

"Shush!" she said with a playful grin, "let's get you to the Nurse's office first ok!"

His mouth was agape for a moment before he simply nodded his head in agreement!

The transformed Moka simply glared back before walking over to Tsukune, who still had the Rosary in his hand. "Alright lover boy, It's time for me to depart!" she said as she reached for the rosary and grabbed on to it, only for him to not let go just yet. Moka's eyebrow raised dangerously at his defiance. She quickly realized how uncomfortable this was as she began to feel tiny butterflies in her stomach again. "Tsukune … I'm not your Moka, It doesn't make any difference to me if you don't want to let go, I'll just throw you into another tree and yank the rosary out of your hands myself"

Tsukune only continued to look at the other version of his favorite girl curiously, mostly undaunted by her cold demeanor "Look Moka, I know you like to pretend that you don't like us that much, but I want you to know that regardless of whichever Moka you are, I still care about the both of you the same!" He said tenderly before letting go of the rosary, smiling at the barely noticeable blush on the glaring Vampire's face. "We'll see you again soon, Moka!"

Moka's iron clad glare softened ever so slightly, 'This idealistic fool, does he really think that just because the other me is sweet on him that I'll fall for his little spell too?' She shook her head as she clicked the rosary back into place, before making eye contact with him, "Sayanora …. Tsukune!"

As she began to fall, he caught the pinkette in his arms. Tsukune smiled as the innocent look in her eyes as well as the gorgeous pink hair he had fallen in love with returned to her.

Yukari yawned audibly as she looked into the night sky, "I don't know about you guys, but I'm beat, this day felt crazy long!"

Huey, Tsukune, and Riley shared an irritated look at her declaration, like telepathy, somehow they all knew what each other were thinking.

'Preaching to the choir on that one!'

################

Yukari certainly was right about how long the day had felt. After Moka had woken up they had originally intended to all go down with Huey to the Yokai Hospital to get his leg treated but Mizore had made a not-so-surprising request. She had asked the rest of the group if she could take Huey there herself. Needless to say, they had agreed and decided to make their way back to their dorms for some much desired rest.

"Don't worry Mr. Freeman, the X-Ray results have just come back, it's only a hairline fracture in your kneecap." A bubbly nurse explained with a friendly smile on her face.

Huey nodded his head in thanks, as he sat in the surprisingly comfortable hospital bed with medical tape wrapped around his knee. He was grateful that things turned out relatively ok after Kotsubo's final attempt to get to Mizore, he sighed comfortably as he relaxed into the feeling of her running her hands through his hair while the nurse talked.

"Thank you Ms. Yasuhuro! Huey and I really appreciate how helpful you have been" Mizore exclaimed with a small bow, making the nurse blush and bow in return. "Oh it was no trouble! Trust and believe that your treatment at Yokai Academy is our number one priority! Well, I have other patients to attend to, if you need my assistance, please don't hesitate to press that button on the right side of your bed! But if there's nothing else, Goodnight Mr. Freeman"

"Right, thanks doc!" Huey said simply as the nurse smiled back and took her leave.

At the sound of the door closing, Huey looked around for any cameras of any sort. He found none but spoke quietly, "So … how did you know I was human Mizore, what gave me away" he asked with an audible sigh.

Mizore merely giggled cutely before taking her shoes off and getting into the bed with him with a mischievous grin on her face. She grabbed his left arm and began to snuggle with him. Huey raised a questioning eyebrow but blushed nonetheless at the feeling of her cool bust squeezing his arm, it was admittedly, a feeling he had grown to miss over the long day.

"Mizore, what are you doing?" Huey asked the snuggling Snow Woman. She merely leaned into his ear with labored breaths, "Getting closer so we can whisper more effectively, good idea right!" she whispered before giving his lobe a small lick, making him reel back in surprise and arousal.

"Whoa Mizore, not that i'm not enjoying this but you know me, I'm all about business before pleasure, why aren't you still angry with me?" he asked with a small grin.

Mizore smiled back, "A little Succu-birdie told me and Moka that you and the boys were up all night on some kind of stakeout or something, apparently, she and your brother's bond is a little bit more powerful than we thought and she pretty much dreamed the whole thing." She explained.

"What!" Huey nearly yelled out before quickly composing himself, "Look Mizore, I didn't tell you because we didn't have as much information as we do now! I thought we were basically being sent on suicide missions and I wanted to protect your heart from what I honestly thought was gonna be my inevitable death. So I figured that it'd be best if you just hated me instead, you feel me!" He said, inwardly cringing at his last phrase, he had been watching too much BET with his brother when he was bored.

Mizore smirked sultrily at him before letting go of his arm and lifting her left leg over his midsection to mount him. She relaxed into his torso, she moaned, blushing madly at the feeling of his rapidly growing member poking the slit in her purple striped panties. Huey moaned slightly as well, as he felt how warm the moist panties actually felt. "Mhm, Huey, you're a Big Boy aren't you!" She said sultrily as she slowly lowered her mouth to his.

As Huey felt the chilled breath of the Snow Woman couldn't keep the smirk off his face at her words, "Don't you want to know what I got to say Mizore, you can't tell me that me being Human doesn't affect you at all?" he asked playfully.

Mizore moaned as she began to slowly grind against the Afro-headed revolutionaries member, making Huey grunt in pleasure at the sensation he was currently experiencing."I told you remember, I didn't care what your Monster form was, trust me, you've seen how gross a lot of these guys's Monster Form's are, you turning out to be Human was a lot better than it could have been to be honest! It doesn't matter to me what the rest of your species has done because you are such an amazing guy! You saved me from my own loneliness, you saved poor Yukari from those Lizard freaks, and then you saved me again from Kotsubo, twice I might add! You can tell me about the rest later, right now … All I Want is You Huey!" She whispered tenderly with a loving smile on her face.

For the first time all day, Huey had allowed a genuine smile to grace his features. He looked into the adoring eyes of his Ice princess. He finally had no reason to fight against his feelings anymore. If this day had taught him anything, it was that a wise man formulates and plans for his future but he also makes sure to not let the present pass him by as well.

Huey smirked suggestively before reaching over to his facility control remote and dimming the lights, never breaking eye contact with the girl. Huey grabbed the girls midsection and pulled her in closer, Mizore's eyes glistened with intense desire as she grabbed the collar of his hospital gown. The two were a mere inch away, "So …. You're finally letting me in huh, better late than never I guess!" she said playfully making Huey shiver at her melodic voice that was just so unbelievably sexy to him.

"Does this answer your question?" he whispered out huskily before finally claiming Mizore's lips. Mizore felt her whole world shake as her tongue gleefully played with his own. It was a sloppy kiss, full of passion, love and lust. She moaned into the kiss further as Huey's hands continued to travel up and down her curves. She smirked slightly as she began to gyrate her hips on his member once again, she felt ecstatic as Huey groaned into the kiss even more before moving his hands into her jacket. She gasped as she felt him slowly snake his hands up her flat tummy and tenderly grab her left breast. As she pulled back for air, a thin trail of saliva persisted between their lips.

"Hn, maybe I should have come with you to your dorm last week, huh!" Huey whispered with a deep rasp as said Snow Woman shivered pleasurably at his voice and licked her wet lips sultrily. "I'm wetter than a melting ice cap right now, I Love you Huey, please …. make love to me tonight, I want my first time to be special, and today, has been the most special day of my life!" she requested, making Huey's eyes widen at her sudden request.

He wasn't like the rest of his generation, he knew sex was something to be taken seriously, only to be done when a true connection was formed with someone. Try as he might he couldn't find a reason to say no! Was this not a perfect situation for it? Even if it was kind of soon, he had established a true bond with Mizore and after such a seriously crazy day between the two of them, did it get any more special than this?

Huey leaned in to kiss her again, she grinned happily before moaning into his lips. Mizore felt like she was on cloud9 as she felt his hands once again snaking up her jacket before he lifted it off of her back. Huey looked on intensely as the smirking but blushing Snow Woman created a razor sharp icicle on her pointer finger. Huey moaned in anticipation as she slowly began to slice his Hospital gown in two to expose his chest. The feeling of the slight chill accompanied by her power only served to turn him on more. The cold never bothered him anyway!

"We don't need this, do we?" she whispered suggestively as she cut the collar of the gown and pulled it apart with her hands to reveal his toned chest and washboard abs. Huey smirked at the mesmerized look on her face at his shredded physique before he unclipped her black bra. He stared at her exposed chest with an equally mesmerized look as he took in the size of her breasts. "Damn Mizore, that jacket really doesn't do you justice" he quipped, making her giggle before leaning down to his belly button and kissing his exposed abs one by one, reveling in their somewhat sweaty taste on account of their recent fight. Huey groaned in excitement as she moved up to his nipples.

"How about you start wearing muscle shirts Huey, you'd rock that Wife-Beater" she quipped back as she moved from his chest and leaned over his lips again.

Huey chuckled before roughly pulling her into his chest, groaning at the amazing feeling of her snowy peaks rubbing up against him. Mizore chuckled at his forwardness and smirked before moaning as she sensually rubbed her sizable chest up against his. "How about you prove to me how much you want that tonight!" he whispered back making her lean into him.

"Gladly!"

Their lips met once more in a euphoric battle for dominance, Mizore wrapped her arms tightly around Huey's pillow-raised neck as Huey wrapped his own arms around her toned waist, both of them pulling each other in as tight as possible. Their naked chests rubbing against one another made them moan into the kiss that much more. Thankfully the walls to the facility were created to be rather thick, because their moans only continued to get louder as their passionate night of love-making continued.

End of Chapter 4 Part 2

Jesus Christ that Chapter was a Bitch to write. I know it's been a minute since I updated this story, at least compared to the first three revamps and Part 1 of Chapter 4, but lord knows I wanted to make this chapter really good. I know it was a long one, hell i've never written anything as long as this in my entire life. I promise though, most future chapters will not be this long, this was just a big chapter in the story. I know it might feel like some loose ends weren't addressed but best believe that they will be addressed in future chapters.

I really hope you guys enjoyed this one, because if I put my whole ass into the last one, then I put my entire lower body into this. Remember I am entirely open to any kind of constructive criticism, this is still my first story so try as I might, I expect to have some not so well written moments in this story for a while. I hope that for a newbie, this story isn't too bad. Anyway, Chapter 5 is coming sometime this month, probably not for about two weeks though, Peace!
