Chapter 2

YUKIO POV

I walk into the room to find it completely vacant. Heck Kuro is nowhere to be seen. I heave a sigh of relief because it meant one thing; either Mephisto took that bastard away or some Exorcists came for him. Either way I am glad that he is nowhere to be seen because what I am about to carry out is very dangerous and disturbing and Rin being Rin would get triggered by it thanks to how hyperemotional and sensitive he is.

Met Izumo on the way who came looking for Rin which I find highly surprising. Isn't she supposed to be this cold, detached, high and mighty bitch who puts herself above others and only cares for that weak friend of hers. What is her name? Oh yes Paku. Yet here is Kamiki having some concern for my foolish brother. But then again, I have always noticed how flustered she acts whenever Rin was around. Which means that my hypothesis of her is true. Kamiki does have a crush on Rin. But that goes beyond that. She seems to be very understanding and sympathetic of the guy, lashing out at anyone that dares to make fun of him. Still I do not see her as a threat yet. Just an annoying little ant that can be dealt with eventually.

Anyway, I get out of the room and head off to the one place that Rin and no one in particular knows nothing about and that is my secret sanctuary, a special lab that I created in the another block of the dorm that no one knows about.

Yes I am kinda like Batman but worse because I do not care about humanity or anyone. I only care about serving my own needs. And in order to do so without anyone knowing, I have to control stuff behind the scenes.

I power up the computer system and sit and wait for it to boot. Once that is done, I then begin to connect to a secret database only I know. From there, I hook myself to the camera I have installed in Shura's home. That's right. I secretly installed in Shura's home to keep a good eye on the bitch and monitor her every move. I now know her every move and now it is time to act.

"Everything ready boys?" I say into the microphone. Beelzebub then whines. "I still do not see any use in any of this shit." I simply roll my eyes. Beelzebub is even more cowardly than both Amaimon and Rin combined and that is saying something.

"Quit your complaints and do your job." I command him. Iblis then says "Pay him no attention boss." I hear some scrapping which means that Iblis must have hit him. Thank God for Iblis. At least we have one competent Demon King that is hands on in more ways than one. I think you are getting the picture here.

I watch as the duo make their way to Shura's place, masking their presence from her. Shura was in her bathroom having her bath. I smirk evilly at this. This should be easy if Shura does not put up a fight that is.

RIN POV

"Let me get this straight. Not only were you an A-star student back in the day but also you were the IT boy?" Amaimon asked. I simply grin and nod at that. The ride of our destination has been enjoyable so far as all four of us have been chatting, mostly saying nasty stuff about Yukio hence the current subject of discussion.

 "Boy do I miss being on top and having people kiss up my ass." I smirk fondly at the memories. Mephisto simply chuckles. "Kissing up your ass? And in what way?" My evil smirk gets nastier. "I try to play nice and all but when the situation calls for it, I play bitches like a giant chess board, moving the pieces the way I want."

That's right folks. Rin Okumura, or at least the Rin that you thought you knew was not and still isn't a complete innocent ball of sunshine. No. The real Rin is a lot more darker than that. You are talking about a boy that lost his virginity at a young age. Do not ask me the age. Not only did I get high grades that were higher than all the shit Yukio brags about currently but also, I was the quintessential bad boy of the hood that everyone and I mean EVERYONE wanted to be like and wanted to date. And boy did I shag a load of people along the way. Way more than Yukio.

If teachers gave me grades I did not want, I would wait till everyone else is gone, corner the teacher and seduce them into giving me what I wanted. Oh yes, I was that bad of a person and I miss being a  bad boy.

Yukio thinks he's the shit but guess what? I was and will always be that bitch. That benchmark he aspires to reach but can never quite get to. Yukio and I do not have and never had a picture perfect brotherly relationship.

The mere thought of being friends with that imbecile sickens me. He is the true pathetic loser here not me. The true difference between Yukio and I is that I try to play nice with everyone except him. He is a total jerk to everyone and has always been since day one though I will admit that his acting has sort of gotten better.

I act nice and can be nice. However like everyone else, I do have a dark side which I reserve for those that piss me off. I can be cold, calculating and manipulative when the need arises, something that Yukio clearly has forgotten about. Yukio and I have been having this rivalry ever since we were kids over every little thing. Whenever Father Fujimoto or the other priests were around, we would act like normal kids who would play with each other.

But when none of them were around, we would immediately turn on each other. Our fights were vicious back then. I remember throwing knives at Yukio's head and Yukio doing the same to me. Yes we have always hated each other as kids but hid it well enough.

It got to a point that that whiny pussified bitch Yukio went to report me to Father Fujimoto, accusing me of bullying him. Funny since I was out with my friends when he reported me to Dad. I got grounded and that was when the bitch blackmailed me into downgrading myself for him. Big mistake. Now after years of humiliation at his hands, I want that bastard to suffer for every single shit that he has done to me. And I will gladly make sure of that of course.

We soon arrive at our destination which was this massive black gothic like mansion. Said mansion from the outside was so large, kinda like a little luxurious castle shaped like the letter U with dark grey bricks. There was a large oak tree by the left. I glare at Mephisto. "Someone sure loves to live fancy huh?" I say. Mephisto simply laughs. "Oh come on. You can't blame me now can you? I love luxury and therefore must surround myself with it at all costs."

I snort. "Touché."

We then get out and walk into the house. I take the time to look around. The mansion was so massive and clean with dark gothic décor all over the place, starting from the chandelier. And the exquisite furniture. I feel most at peace with this shockingly. Must be my inner demon.

"This will be your new home kiddo." Says Mephisto. I simply grins. "Ah this is more like it." At that moment, a butler, who seems to be an elderly male demon with white hair and demon horns sticking out of his head dressed in a black suit walks into the room. "Haruto please show Rin to his room." Mephisto instructs the butler who nods and motions to me which I do.

NORMAL POV

Shura hums as she gets out of the shower, drying her hair with a towel. The past couple weeks have been stressful thanks to Rin's situation. She does not blame Rin for his actions. If anything, it was bound to happen anyway. However she would have preferred a far more pleasant situation. She can understand how the others feel in regards to Rin's Satanic lineage especially if one considers the Blue Night and its terrible aftermath.

Regardless, Rin is such a nice guy deep down and does not deserve the shit people are throwing at him. She and Izumo are the only ones so far that still care and like Rin despite his lineage. Ironically she and Izumo have been having private conversations and in fact, it was she that told Izumo to go fetch Rin so that they would take him off campus. But it seems someone had already beaten them to it.  Definitely Mr Pheles.

It was then that she stops in her tracks as she feels a very powerful presence in the room. Tch….demons.

Before she could dash over to grab her sword which was in her bedroom, Iblis flash steps behind her and opens his mouth, spewing out a mouthful of flames at the lady, causing her to fall back and groan in pain. She tries to get up but Beelzebub grabs Shura and throws her so hard in the wall that she feels her spine crack. Shit….

Both demons exchange evil smirks before taking it in turns to beat up and straight up torture her, making her groans turn into screams.

Yukio meanwhile watches this sickening act with glee, letting out a psychotic evil laugh. "Now this is a wonderful piece of beauty right there!"

Once they were done, the demons disappear from the scene, leaving Shura's bloodied corpse behind. Hours later, Izumo arrives to meet up with Shura but lets out a blood curling scream once she sees the horrible mess that lay before her.

Meanwhile, Mephisto and the others were eating their dinner which was a massive buffet of various human food, obviously out of consideration for Rin. Rin would have to admit. Haruto is a pretty good cook though he doubts he would be able to beat him in that department. At that moment, Mephisto's phone rings. Sighing, the Demon King of Time pulls out the phone and picks the call. "What now?" he says in an irritated tone.

Once the caller on the line tells him what had happened, Mephisto's eyes widened in shock. "WHAT?!" Rin lifts up his head. Whatever this is, it has to be serious. Once he was finished with the call, Mephisto sighs. "What happened Mephisto?" Rin asked.

"I'm afraid we have to return back to True Cross. Something bad just happened." Astaroth glares at their brother. "Will you quit beating about the bush and get straight to the point here?!"

Mephisto nods and then says, "I'm afraid to say this Rin but I was just informed that Shura your teacher is dead….."

Rin feels the world around him collapse. "T-That's impossible….no…." Mephisto sighs and nods, a grim expression on his face. "Unfortunately it is true. She was apparently attacked by some powerful demons who are yet to be identified."

Rin then clenches his hand as tears flow down his eyes. Astaroth hugs his younger brother whilst Amaimon gently pats his shoulder. "Any ideas who could be attacker anuie?" Amaimon asked. "I wouldn't know till we get to the crime scene." he says. Rin then wipes his tears and then says in a low angry tone, "Whoever it is that killed Shura, that person shall be destroyed…"
