6 Darth Paku

Hallo Mensch,

That is supposed to mean hello human in German, but Mephisto taught me it so I don't really trust it. Anyways, I would like to congratulate you on successfully breaking out of jail. This one occasion will hopefully be the first AND last you have to do that.

I don't want to make a habit of burning down any more cites with demonic firebombs. And yes, I am partially to blame for the thousands of deaths that occurred because of the fire, but how was I supposed to know that my flames would spread so fast.

The good news, though, is that you are no longer in captivity. (But you're still on the run) I sent along a nice present to congratulate you on escaping.

It's a simple little ballpoint pen that EXPLODES if you click it five times rapidly. Just a little tool to escape more police, just click five times, toss it, and all your worries are evaporated, literally and figuratively.

Let's get back to the juicy stuff though.

So after my epic speech, I noticed that a few of the plebeians sitting in the crowd seeming dissatisfied.

'Whatever could be the problem?' I thought.

ME, THEY DIDN'T LIKE MY SPEECH! JUST LIKE YOU!

I WOULD'VE BURNT THEM ALIVE RIGHT THERE AND THEN, but then I felt a heavy aura press onto me. With a quick glance, I confirmed that Mephisto was the owner of the aura.

Suddenly I got angrier.

'MEPHISTO KNEW I WOULD BE GIVING A SPEECH! HE IS THE F***ING HEADMASTER! I'M GOING TO BURN HIM TILL HE BEGS FOR MERCY LIKE THE CLOWN HE IS!' I thought.

But that could wait, I had the façade of an awesome person to keep up. The announcer, who had been silent in awe of my speech, finally began moving along with the ceremony.

After that was over with, the students got split into groups and given tours of the True Cross Academy campus. I was sorted into the group with Yukio, who was giving me a look of curiosity.

At one point in the tour, Yukio came up to me and started a conversation.

"Are you really Mephisto's son?" He asked.

"Adopted, but yeah, I am." I replied in my "bored cool kid" tone.

"How come no one's heard of Mephisto adopting you?"

I turned and smirked at him.

"Why would anyone tell a mere Middle First Class Exorcist like you?"

'PLEASE FORGIVE ME YUKIO!' My mind screamed, but I was already committed to the role.

Yukio didn't even react to the insult, he instead just narrowed his eyes at me.

"Are you an exorcist?"

"Not yet, but I'll be training at the cram school. So I guess you will be teaching me then."

"How do you I would be the- ohhh…Mephisto told you."

Mephisto actually didn't tell me, but what Yukio didn't know couldn't hurt him.

Yukio stopped questioning me after that, but I knew he still had questions about me. The rest of the tour passed uneventfully, other than for some reason a lot of girls kept trying to get Yukio's number. They kept calling him "talented" and "awesome" for being the freshman class representative.

But for some reason, none of them came up to me. Huh…weird.

I could care less about human girls though, I was too excited about the FIRST CLASS OF THE CRAM SCHOOL! I was already planning my entrance.

There were two options: come in before Rin, or come in after Rin. The former option would let me watch Rin's entrance, but the latter would give me more cool points because arriving late automatically equals cool.

I eventually decided on going in after Rin, but then there was the classic question:

"Where do I sit?"

I could sit next to the Kyoto trio, but that seemed like a boring choice. Sitting with puppet boy would be weird, and so would sitting with Shura while she was in disguise. Sitting near Paku and Izumo would let me observe how Paku closely and I might have a TINY crush on Izumo. On the other hand, I could sit with Rin, which could be fun.

In the end, I chose to sit next to Rin.

When the tour was over, I rushed over to the hallway with all the classrooms and hid in the toilet until I heard Rin talking with Mephisto. After hearing them, I waited for about two minutes before walking out into the hallway and entering the classroom.

I looked around the classroom just as I had practiced, with a bored but arrogant expression. After scanning the room, my gaze just happened to land on Rin, who I then started walking towards. Without so much as a greeting, I plopped down into the chair next to his and pulled out my phone.

'BOOM, JUST AS PRACTICED!' I thought in my head.

But then Rin did what Rin does and started talking.

"WHA- WHO SAID YOU COULD SIT THERE?" He yelled in bewilderment.

Instead of responding to him, I turned towards dog Mephisto and said:

"What are you doing here?"

Of course, I knew what he was doing here, but that seemed like the thing a cool anime character would do.

"I am sitting in with Mr. Okumura, but please don't draw any attention to me, my boy. It wouldn't be appropriate if students found out their headmaster was spying on them like a dog." Dog Mephisto replied in a pipsqueak voice.

I turned away from the two demons and began using my super-hearing to listen in on the other group's conversations.

"Isn't that guy the weird freshman representative?" I heard Konekomaru say.

'WHAT DID HE JUST CALL ME! I CAN'T BELIEVE I ACTUALLY LIKED YOU KONEKOMARU, BUT NOW YOU'VE BETRAYED ME! I'M GOING TO BURN YOU TO A- no, I can't do that.' I thought.

Thoroughly angered, I decided listening in on the Kyoto trio might be bad for my health, so I switched to Paku and Izumo.

"Are you sure you're fine Paku? I'm sure the teachers would be fine if you missed a little bit of school considering what happened." Izumo said.

"It's fine Izumo, I really want to be here. I had my doubts about joining the cram school before, but now after my dad's…" Paku began to say, before trailing off.

"You are obviously not fine Paku, you really need to take a break."

"NO! I have to avenge my father no matter what. Mark my words Izumo, I'll murder the demon that did that to my father."

When I heard that, I started sweating like pig.

So yeah, I created Darth Paku, or maybe Pakubat? No…I like Darth Paku.
