"Anyway, the rules Yuki gives you are the same. if you can't make a friend I won't have you join." Guren looks at him, "I don't get it, what is it with you and trying to have me make friends! I have Yuki, that's all I need! It's not like it'll help me kill more vampires." Yuu says, "Keep a lid on your temper Yuu." I wriggled out of Guren's arm, "Oh thank goodness! Hyakuya! You're alive! I thought you'd die!" We saw Yoichi jump over the railing, he tackled Yuu in a hug and was crying, rubbing his cheek on his chest, "Who's that?" Guren looks at them, "I guess... his friend? Actually no, maybe his lover?" I looked at them, "I've got good news. You're now officially part of the vampire extermination unit. Yoichi, let's have a chat shall we? Welcome to the Moon Demon Company." Guren says and walks off, dragging me after him, "At least gimme a chance to congratulate Yuu you jerkface!" I thrash around.
The next day, Yuu and I were on the roof, "Hey um... you might not remember me but I was the girl you saved yesterday." A girl hands Yuu a letter, my eyebrows shot up, she giggles and runs off, I jumped down, "Look at you Yuu. Already the knight in shining armour." I grinned, "Shut up." He scrunched up the note and shoves it into his pocket, "Come on now. Really?" I raised an eyebrow, "Ki, can I ask you why I'm still in his dump. I've already passed Guren's test and I'm on the vampire extermination unit. So why am I wasting time playing schoolboy?" He asks, I spin on my heel and face him, "Sorry, that's a question you can ask Guren." I shrug and jump up onto a bench, "Then how do I ask him? Lazy jerk is never in his office! Literally the only person he responds to is you and his team." Yuu yells, "What are you getting mad at me for? I'm not his keeper." I turn around, "Well you're the closest thing to one." He grumbles, "Yuichiro." I jump down and look eye to eye with him even though I only reached his chin, "Fine then. Who says your training has to start when Guren says, let's start now." I bring out my key, "I know you want power, like this." I spin my key between my fingers and hold it up, flames and sparks spew from it and a scythe materialises, Yuu gasps, "Woah, what the hell?!" He had never seen my weapon, "This is the demon I formed a contract with. Moro." A wolf appeared in the steam and smoke then condensed into my weapon, it was all black with the edge of the blade a glowing red, "Hold on, why is it red? Not green?" Yuu asks, I staggered for a moment, "That's an answer for another day. Try not to embarrass yourself in front of him." I grinned and had my scythe wrapped around my body, "Cursed gear... a weapon that can kill vampires... I've never actually seen yours like this..." He tries to touch it but I flip it back up and knock it on the floor, he unsheaths his sword, "I'm taking the cursed gear." He looks at me, I was taken aback for a moment but I smirked, "You idiot. You can't use someone else's cursed gear, that's why we have contracts." I giggled, "Then bring it on Ki!" He runs towards me, I grinned. He ran towards me, he tried to slice down on me but I deflected with my blade, the resonating sound boomed and he flew back.

"Yuu, you don't have a chance against cursed gear, I'm sorry." I kept walking closer to him, spinning my blade as he deflected my attacks as best he could, "Not too shabby." I hammered the blade into the ground and jumped up onto the handle, flipping my body around the heel and kicked his stomach, "Well played Yuu." I grabbed the handle, "Go Moro." I sliced the air and the inferno wolf appeared, bounding over to Yuu and carrying him over to the chainlink fence, passing through him, once she disappeared, I flipped my key and turned it back into a key, "Haha, Woah. Okay, that was pretty badass." He looked at me with wide eyes, "Don't ever look down on your 'frail' family member. Remember that." I knocked Yuu's head and helped him up.
"I don't get it, you've got a kickass weapon. How can the vamps beat that?" He looks down at me as we walk through the corridors, "It's war dummy. We're up against their soldiers. The fangs won't just idly stand by while we slice them to bits, they've got weapons too." I sighed, "Argh, for real? That sucks." Yuu groans, "They suck, why do you think Guren's trying to hammer that idea of teamwork into your head? We can't win this without each other. I'm not losing you too." I say and I bit the inside of my cheeks, Yuu stopped and looked down at me, "Hey, I'm not going anywhere, promise." He smiles softly, "Yuu! You've got to help me!" We saw Yuichiro running over, Shinoa tailing behind him, "Come on! Quit running!" We saw the bullies chasing him, "You've got to be kidding me. Don't tell me they're picking on you again." Yuu's eyes narrow, they were gasping out of breath, "We don't want trouble, just hear us out. Sorry about before, we were Grade A jerks." They puffed, "Will you forgive us and make us your disciples?" They ask, "Disciples?" I cock my head, "No way! I can't have disciples, that's too great an honour!" Yoichi wiggles, "Hey it's Yuu! Thanks for saving me yesterday! My name's Satoshi Yamonica. You saved me from that vampire bitch. Way to stick it to them, boss man." Yamonica says, "Boss man?" Yuu asks, I sighed loudly, "Look at you Yuu. You're even popular with the guys now, it's starting to make me feel left out." I tease, "What's with the 180? You were just using Yoichi as a footstool before, you have no right in coming back to ask him for favours." Yuu says firmly, "Yeah, can't argue with you there. We messed up but we can really do with his help right now. But still... it's Yuji. The guy who's with us, he went into the forbidden chamber and never came back out." He says, I suddenly paid attention, "Of course you did, I should've guessed, the Grade A curse must be a welcome mat for you morons. There's no excuse, to be completely honest I don't know why you guys did it." I walk over to them, "I care more about the punishment and your friend's punishment has already been decided the instant he stepped foot into that chamber." I walk past them, Shinoa following close behind me, "What? No way! Are we talking hard time?" Yamonica asks, "I'm sure he's already in custody" Shinoa turns around, "Oh no, for how long?" They ask, "Till the demon company decides to execute him." I spun on my heel, their eyes widen, "I suggest you forget about him." I continue walking.
"Wait so Yuji managed to open it and get inside?" Yoichi asks, "It's actually a training ground for the extermination unit but if an untrained civilian like him got in, he's pretty much guaranteed to be possessed by the demon." I shrug, "Wait, demon?" Yuu asks, "Remember what I told you? who says your training has to start when Guren says. Let's move onto stage two." I continued walking down the stairs.
We finally reached the sealed door, "So what happened to Yuji?" Yoichi asks, "He probably got his heart eaten if the demon's already taken control of his body." Shinoa explains, "Then what about us? What if it eats our hearts?" He trembles, "That's why you need to be trained first, otherwise you'll get possessed." Shinoa says, I saw Yuu open the door, "Yuu." I glared at him, "I'll get that cursed gear, I will." He runs in, I saw Yuji in the middle, holding an axe, "Shit. Shinoa, Yoichi, get the Moon Demon Company, I'll deal with this suicidal maniac." I run down after him, they nod. Yuu was about to go in with his normal sword but I encompassed him with my scythe, "You realise if you touch that axe, you'll get possessed too, your hunger for revenge will make it that much more easier for the demon to take control of your body." Flames appeared across the edge of my blade, "Yeah well let's see how much of it I can take." He slides under my blade, "YUU!" I shout as he touches the axe's handle. He blacked out and lay on the floor, "Come on Yuu! Are you an idiot!" I held him, I bend down and listened to his heart, so far, the rhythm was constant and normal, Yuji was no revoked from the demon and was slowly stirring awake, "Yuki?" He rubs his head, "Shh." I shush him harshly and continue listening to Yuu's chest. After twenty minutes, his eyes fluttered open, "Yuu? Oh my god what the hell were you thinking!" I tackle him into a hug and cry, "I'm alright, see I told you, I can deal with anything." I felt him stroke my back, I looked at him and punched him, "You idiot!" I shouted, "Ow! What the hell!" He holds his cheek, I saw Shinoa and Yoichi panting, out of breath, "No way... did he get out by himself?" Shinoa runs down, I nod and frantically rub my tears away, "So does this axe belong to me now?" He points at it, "No, you need to follow a few more procedures than that when you form a contract. Guren will decide what suits you best." I look at the axe, "Let's see, starting tomorrow we'll line you up with the rest of the trainees." I slapped his head and stood up, "Alright!" He shouts, "That was just to keep his yammering mouth shut right?" Shinoa whispers and snickers, "You're too clever Shinoa, too clever." I smirked.
