HeadMaster Tsukune Aono

Written April/2-10/2020

This story is for those of you who were fans of the series. This is a pick up where it left off Tsukune Aono, who has taken the job as principal/headmaster of Yokai Academy, he has been training in several areas, with Issa Shuzen his future-father in law trains him in hand-to-hand combat, swordsmanship and vampire powers , Wealth of Power through instruction as vampires seldom use their shapeshifting powers. Ruby instruction shows him how to cast spells and information on every monster from Gnome to Vampire, gaining encyclopedic knowledge of monsters to help him understand the student body and defend himself from assassins. Finally the former Headmaster who had a variety of magical treasures which tsukune being new to them would have trouble not being hurt by them That is the point of this story, my stories will be a monster of the week theme.

The Start of the story soon-to-be Headmaster Tsukune Aono is having a meeting with his secretary(Ruby Tojo).

Ruby Tojo: Hello Master.. Uh Tsukune… Sir (Ruby said trying to hide her masochist/submissive side) I have recovered a new magical object for your treasury it is called navigation (a large red compass with straps for the user to wear on the wrist ) let me put it on you master (she said under her breath) unfortunately the manual was destroyed.

TSUKUNE: I'm supposed to use a magical artifact with no instructions, and no idea what it does, ruby why don't you just put that into my vault with the other ones for now.

Ruby: As you wish but I was given a description of the artifact, it is supposed to be a teleporter or a map.

Tsukune: A map you say? But it's a compass ruby.

Ruby: Yes but from the description navigation leads you to the solution to the biggest problem the owner has.

Tsukune: Biggest problem?(Motioning towards the thing clutching it as if he had hope for it to do its job.)

Ruby: (Concerned came to her employer) Are you still worried of those assassins that stalk you, the story-hungry paparazzi that hound you, or the terrorist organization (Fairy Tail) after you. Wow you have a lot of problems!

Tsukune: Although noteworthy none of those problems are it after that last attempt on my life by that bone monster (struggling for the name of the yokai) the Gashadokuro it was huge yet against Mr Shuzen it didn't last 20 seconds. Mr Shuzen is so powerful I wanna know if he thinks I am worthy of being in the Shuzen family. But he's waiting in the bus playing cards with the bus driver. I can ask him that now ruby you can just put this in my vault after all.

Ruby went to the treasury on her toes afraid of all the powerful items in that place but right next to it was another item two to object near each other they started to glow and as both did ruby used her magic to stop whatever it was going on.

Ruby: This is bad this magic is chaos I wished I had those instructions now (suddenly the appeared) what how did?(Cut off by tsukune who came bursting into the treasury)

Tsukune: What's happening? What is that portal, (as he was being sucked into the portal with his assistant) here we go into trouble.

Chapter 2 We ended up where and when?

The basically new Headmaster of Yokai Academy along with his loyal secretary have been teleported into the unknown territory, the surroundings were trees, bats, and not much else, though they are unharmed , they are still cautious and worried.

Tsukune: Ruby where are we ruby, did the navigation do this.

Ruby: I believe there is more than that. The navigation was near another unknown item. The navigation must have heard your problem and combined with the magic of another item only made worse by my use of my magic but for some reason I at least have the instructions now, but not the navigation device.

Tsukune: Well I don't see how that helps us now. Wait ruby your magic wand can you teleport us back to Yokai Academy.

Ruby: I cannot, I have no spell like that. We are stuck here Sir.

Tsukune: (Surprising calm tsukune reasoned) Well there is only one thing left let's just look around and see where we are and see if there is any civilization nearby.

Wandering around for 30 minutes they finally find a house. I use the term loosely. They have found an enormous building that could house hundreds , a castle.

Tsukune: Wow that's an actual castle it looks just like, Mr Shuzen's, but that was destroyed years ago, maybe they rebuilt, (tsukune turned and noticed that they had company coming from all corners, they were monstrels well-dressed in high-quality suits, menacingly staring at them and pacing forward) (Tsukune decides to question the group about what they wanted) hello is there a problem, we are just passing by, we mean you no harm.

(One of the thugs has stepped up and established his leadership having both hands in his pockets stiff posture and menacing look.)

Leader : So we come all of this way to meet up with the world's greatest assassin, Issa Shuzen, I guess that we should have to deal with security guards but I expected more than a scrawny kid and his girlfriend, this is all he sends to deal with us. I feel insulted by this. Maybe I'll bring back a head, ...too dark. (He leaped into punch tsukune right in the guts turning his fist into a drill and ready to pull something out of his skull.)

The Vampire Principal not needing anymore scars to his collections he's racked up, he disappeared from the guys line of sight grabbed the attacker's arm from the back and threw him as if he were a boomerang but he didn't come back.

Tsukune: There's a misunderstanding, I am not a security guard ,I am a principal, (realizing what is happening) internally: Wait we are on the Shuzen family ground they must have rebuilt, and these guys are trying to kill Mr Shuzen I have to take them down before this gets worse.

Second thug: (Slightly afraid after seeing the power tries to reason)A "principal" never heard that one before, well then forgive the wanna be leader he wanted to be dramatic.

Ruby: Should I cast a shrinking spell on the rest of these guys tsukune, I remember that spell?'

Tsukune: Let's talk this out first ruby(turning to the second thug) what do you all want?

Second thug: I agree ,we are reasonable, would you mind looking the other way for a second we are being paid a lot of money to take out the owner of that castle, since you just nixed our boss there is a slice of the pie for you a great 100 million yen est($1,000,000).

Tsukune: (The diplomat chosen to take over the school)I'm sorry but, no if you're planning to hurt, Mr. Shuzen then you should leave now , because the real guards of this place will not be as merciful, what I did now was just a slap on the wrist, bringing out his red eyes stabbing him with his looks.

Ruby held her wand in a menacing as if it were a gun, backing along tsukune's warning to the monstrels. But drops a filler the same filler of tsukune from Fairy Tail showing a healthy bounty for him as well.

Noticing that price, all of them agreed by nodding to each other, the rest of them disagreed with just running away from this whole thing. Saying we have come way too far to go home empty-handed they all jump in believing he is easy pickings compared to Issa Shuzen. The four remaining thugs have an ace up their sleeves, as monstrels have unique powers, they join together combining into a Kaju, but first discarding the expensive suits they donned.

The Kaju is an upper with mandibles and a mouth full of sharp teeth and lower half connected by tendrils that look metallic and scaly.

Ruby steps up to fight instead of tsukune.

Ruby: Tsukune it is my fault we are here, allow me to make up for it by defeating them, and prove I'm useful. (she transforms into her Iron Maiden form) she goes in throwing punches with those fist working better than brass knuckles, attackings tendrils holding him up, spinning him around, uppercutting him next.

The tendrils still actively swipe at her multiple times, still eager to kill the witch drawing only a drop of blood after all that effort, ruby delivers a downward punch that grounds him, and leaves him unconscious.

Ruby: That was a good fight, you are stronger than I thought, armor depress, that's done what should we do sir.

Tsukune: Well, my cell phone doesn't work here, we are far away from the school but not far away from Shuzen Castle, why don't we go and ask him for directions and/or a ride back to Yokai, (strolling up to the doors of the giant castle).

The two of them walk to the castle hoping that they would get a straight shot back home but they magic trinkets that brought them there was more than just a short cut

Chapter 3 Ask the future Father-in-Law

The third Chapter of the story Tsukune Aono and Ruby tojo have been stranded outside a seemingly familiar territory, the enormous, castle filled with Vampire Assassins the most powerful monsters on earth with skills honed over years, specifically to kill their prey,not that they needed much effort to do it, for a vampires have strength of dozens of men, blinding speed too strike before you know they are there, and bloodlust to scare off enemies before the fight starts. THe two of them ruby and tsukune are on the front porch of an ally.

Guard: Holt! Identify yourselves

Tsukune:(Surprised that he isn't being greeted friendlier after practically being a son-in-law to Issa) Hello I am Tsukune Aono, I suppose I don't want to bother Mr. Shuzen's servants right now are there anyways that you would happen to know a way back to Yokai academy?

Guard: Don't pretend like you're not here for a fight with Master Shuzen, I heard news of the squad coming to kill him, but two is less than I thought, I have my orders if you defeat me and the rest of the security detail, you can get killed by Master Shuzen.

Tsukune: What? I'm a friend. We don't want any blood split, or drank I'm surprised that no one has spread my name within the family. (Noticing the guard striking a fighting pose,tsukune tries to explain) just ask Mr Shuzen , wait he's here now did that trinket bring him back home?

Ruby: Tsukune I have a bad feeling something tragic is coming, you feel it right? And it feels familiar.

(But that wasn't the guard she was afraid of,boldy stepping forward to the front gate from inside, each step causing a servant to back up until HE reached the door it was the Vampire Boss)

ISSA: What are these two unfamiliar faces outside of my doors, come to kill me, fine then it has been a slow day after all, I welcome you assasins.

Tsukune: I've never been so confused. Why is he treating us like we are intruders…

Mr Shuzen it's me your student, I'm basically your so...

(Noticing that there was another familiar face but younger than he remembered it was he's semi-sister-in-law kokoa only as an eight-year-old standing far behind Issa and holding a hammer, in shock ruby and tsukune look at each other and step away for a moment.)

Conversing with each other they whisper: Ruby how did that thing bring us here how, witch, how!?

Ruby: I remember now the other object on the shelf was a temporal wand, they say it has a time travel spell.

Tsukune: What there was something like that and I hear about this now.

Ruby: It was supposed to be a dud like a firecracker. I always thought it was for decoration, but is supposed to have only one use per century which means we are stuck.

Bringing their attention back to him Mr Shuzen asks after politely waiting for the end.

Issa: Hello are you here to kill me or chickening out?

Tsukune: Wait um explain… I am Tsukune and this is my assistant ruby, we are just lost travelers (saids while slowing back up.)

Issa: Stay where you are, you leave on my order.

(Coming from behind him two of his daughters appear) Kokoa: Daddy who are these guys are you gonna kill them I wanna watch.

Kahlua: Is this a bad time for those two?

Tsukune: Kokoa, kahlua, he won't kill us.

Issa: You know my girls, are you here for them or me?

Tsukune: Neither I am just a lost travel we think we should just leave now.(Tsukune grabbed ruby and ran as fast as he could sprouting wings for extra speed until a force-field stopped him from leaving the grounds) What you have a force field around the castle? (He said as he was twitching on the ground.)

Ruby: No that was navigation it's back on your wrist, it's glowing and there are words, translated it says "we can't leave until we finish the task we started".

Catching up to them Issa appeared

Issa: This is starting to be confusing. Tell me why you are here and if I think you're lying to me, I will end you. Why are you here, Who are you? And how do you know my children?

Tsukune internally: Think Tsukune you are a diplomat, principal, and vampire, fighting's not an option, do I just tell the truth, he won't believe I'm a time traveler, I work at yokai wait is that a good idea.

Tsukune Out-loud: I am a staff member at Yokai Academy do you know the place?

Issa: I do, answer the first question, then the third.

Tsukune: I was brought here by magic, well not on purpose, we were just going through the HeadMaster's treasury and not for anything just a random magical mishap, see this item on my wrist.

Issa: Now for the big one.

Ruby answering: We have heard tales of your daughters from the Headmaster of the school, we are not stalkers.

Issa grabbed ruby pinning her to a tree: I can see lies and that was one, if my daughters are in danger.

Tsukune: Not at all, let go of her (stopped himself when Issa's death glare turned to him) we know your daughters because.(tsukune's phone rang with magically enhanced reception)

Issa gestured to him to answer.

Cell Phone caller: Hello Issa it's me Tenmei (both tsukune and ruby surprised) hello old friend I hope they haven't cause you to much grief meet my assistants , they are both there by accident, I can tell when my objects have been tampered with, they are just leaving, no need to harm them.

Issa: I trust you Tenmei , I will let them leave.

Tsukune: You know who what is going on?

Tenmei: Of course you're my successor I've been watching you, and my fortune telling powers keep me on top of things, now then there is a way for you and ruby to get back .

(Continuing the conversation )Tsukune: Well we'd like to leave but we don't where we are.

Tenmei(still on the line): The object that you used to get there is how you get back, finish the task.

Tsukune: The task? (Flashing back) "I wanna know if Mr Shuzen thinks I'm worthy" Scared tsukune tries to reason why Mr Shuzen so they can go on with their time), Well I would like to join the Shuzen family or at least know if I am strong enough to join potentially, or just to head home right now.

Issa: I am wondering why I haven't seen you before, I was sure I know a majority of vampires in JAPAN.

Tsukune: I have been living in the Human World for my whole life. I am a diplomat trying to learn about humans, so I guess I'm one of the few vampires you don't know, and this is my assistant Ruby the witch.

Tenmei: I assure you he is a great warrior on par with any of your fighters, but he is not an enemy

Issa: Fine I will help with the task of yours,if you wish to join the Shuzen Family then I have a task for you to complete.

Tsukune: Well that was easy.. wait , does he want us to kill someone, to fight to the death, or maybe he'll give me a jug of blood to drink, I don't drink blood what am I gonna do?

Issa: If you are an apprentice of Tenmei and you already know about my daughters, then you probably know that my daughter Moka is having a birthday party, she is turning nine and I would like you to spare my head of security then I will call it even for this unexpected surprise.

Chapter 4 Fight for your life Tsukune or just for a ride home.

Tsukune Aono is inside the Shuzen Manor to fight for the chance to go home fulfilling his task, and then make his way home with ruby. The Shuzen family enforcer, a fairly tall, muscular, pale, and intimidating vampire, named Cappu. Always ready to kill on his master's orders.

TSUKUNE: I have to fight this guy to the death I don't like killing? What about a simple tap out I will get him to admit defeat?

ISSA: Moka come here is your birthday gift (the young vampire girl showed up surprising tsukune, the sight of his girlfriend as a prepubescent girl was odd, but still flustered by how cute she is.)

ISSA: Defeat him however you wish than leave or stay. Are you ready for this fight, Cappu?

Cappu: I will slay this intruder (he rushed toward tsukune ready to rip his head off ) showing off concrete smashing punches, baring his fangs like a gorilla pounding its chest.

Tsukune evaded using backflips, showing off his spells using force-fields to block and trade blows with this opponent,

Cappu: Impressive every attack is packed with enough power to kill a lower level monster, to me you are a shuzen-class warrior, but as an enforcer to the shuzen family I will not go done easily.

Tsukune: I thank you for the compliment right now I'm focusing on staying alive, I'll need a trump card,(tsukune pulled out his whip used to fight off vampires "Belmont", he recently trained with.) With a few swings of that sword tsukune had weakened Cappu.

Cappu: That is one heck of a whip. Why do you have that thing?

Tsukune: I have a lot of magic weapons, this was a gift.

Cappu: That whip brings back memories, the last person that hit me with a whip was not a friend and you having that, makes me want to kill you, so bring your A game.

Tsukune didn't want to die and decided to end this fight with a quick barrage of punches, not missing a spot on his face, spending Cappu flying away, but before that tsukune grabbed a piece of the ground and swung it like a bat, knocking him unconscious.

The crowd was amazed seeing a young new member take out a boss was a stunning feat.

Moka: Well that was a pretty good fight, good job new guy. (Moka was sadly disappointed with the party.)

Tsukune: Moka is everything alright?

Moka: I see fights like that all the time. The whip was cool though, well I guess I'll open the presents now.(Heading over to the table moka lazily opened her presents, slightly amused with the contents)

(Hating to see moka even a younger moka sad, tsukune went in to put a smile on her face)

Tsukune: Moka you don't like your presents, they seem fun. (/pointing out the gold necklace, the guillotine, and a book on escapology.)

Moka: Hello new guy, do you have a present for me?

Tsukune: Well no (slightly embarrassed thinking quickly remembered that there is something that always makes moka smile leaning in, and pulling his collar down showing his neck) but I do have something that you will like.

Nervous but he is sure that moka will enjoy it, having flashbacks to various moments of painful but funny moments.

Tsukune: Moka here you go.

Moka: What is this?

Tsukune: You can have some of my blood, it tastes great.

Puzzled at his offer stares at him thinking he may be insane , but after getting a whiff of his scent comparing it to a steak, or a lovely ice cream sundae, she stepped in licking her lips, getting ready to bite his neck. She dug into his neck and after drinking a cup's worth of blood, she was amazed at the taste.

Moka: That is the best thing I've ever tasted (she said as she was spinning around jumping all of a sudden she was happy) that was good.

Tsukune was nursing his neck but it didn't hurt as much from 9 year-old moka having a smaller ruby was standing by ready to heal him with magic.

Issa was happy to see his daughter's attitude changing, wondering if he could do this again.

The next step in the party was the dance floor, every vampire in there was dressed in high quality suits each one worth the same amount of a used car, and tsukune fit in with his long coat he donned as the Headmaster to impress the media. The only available partner was ruby, she came happy to have a chance to dance with her "Master".

Tsukune: Ruby we have to stay focused. We have to find a way to become worthy, I don't understand why we aren't back home. I took out his fighter so aren't I strong enough to join.

Ruby: Yes well this may be a suggestion, but Issa seemed more impress when you made moka happy, maybe he wants you to be able to take care of his daughters

Tsukune: I'd do that anytime but that's in the future he doesn't know who I am now.

Tsukune notices that moka is the only one without a partner to dance with at her own party, excusing himself from ruby offers to dance with Moka despite the strange looks of the other attendants for the mix-matched aged couple, moka remembered his great smells weirded out but ready to try the dance. Not practically good at dancing tsukune said:

Well you look like a better dancer this way don't you, I'm glad you agreed to dance with me you look happier now. Tsukune had chose a non-formal dance, and requested the DJ in this case Ruby who had a hoodie she pulled from nowhere like a witch could to play "Disco Lady" . The crowd was pleased as tsukune had started a trend, he remembered this was his moka's favorite song, she was so happy dancing her head off.

The dancing had ended later and tsukune was the life of the party. All the vampires were crowding him and ruby, especially moka.

Moka: You're fun, you should come more often, plus you are strong.

Tsukune: Well I'm glad you had fun, Happy birthday Moka.

Issa came and intervened, noticing tsukune influence on moka, pulled tsukune away from the crowd for a word he said "Well done Mr. Tsukune my daughter has been in a funk and I have not seen her happy for a bit. You have done well, as for Cappu you did better than most. There is one last task I would like you to take care of."

Tsukune was tired from the changing tasks but had no choice.

Issa: Slay the witch you came with.

Tsukune was shocked and terrified, but had to make the stand: Mr Shuzen I will not do that this is my friend.

Mr Shuzen: You decline fighting her, she is a witch, then I will (he was stopped when tsukune struck him across the face.)

What is she to you, a servant, a meal she must be something worth dying for if you struck me?

Tsukune: She is a friend, I know she is not a vampire, but she is mine, we are a part of Yokai, and we are supposed to bring monsters together.

Mr Shuzen: I am impressed with your actions, but let's see if you both can defeat me at once.

Mr Shuzen striking a fighting pose this would mean death for anyone not a Shinso Vampire.

Then tsukune realized that if he used full power that it would reawaken the Kaiju underneath them"Alucard". Not sure which one to fear more tsukune tried to reason not to fight using his diplomatic skills. But both were surprised when moka stepped in to get cash in her birthday wish.

Moka: Father it's my birthday so I get a wish correct?

Issa" Of course Moka, (remembering the day tsukune gave moka thought that moka had grown fond of him) you want me to spare them.

Moka: I do, and I don't think you were gonna kill them anyway.

Issa: Tsukune you have won over my daughter within a day,defeated my guard, and landed a blow on me, impressive , you have earned a spot in the Shuzen family, you are free to leave, and tell Tenmei hello.

The navigation had glowed ready to open the portal. Before the two of them left to go home. Moka tugged on tsukune coat.

Moka: Will you come back? This was a super-fun day, I would like to see you again.

Before he could finish the phone rang again, and the caller "Tenmei " told them that the side-effect of the other device used was that anyone they met in the past would forget their meetings so they wouldn't leave an imprint in the past. But tsukune isn't going to ruin her party so he told her the truth.

Tsukune: Moka I will meet you again and you're gonna be just as beautiful, and fun later.

And to top off the party that tsukune spiced up. Tsukune gave her a peck on the forehead.

Moka was hiding her excitement poorly,as she blushed hard enough to look like a tomato.

With that done Tsukune and Ruby said goodbye and traveled back to School and Tsukune was much better getting the reprieve he needed.

THE END
