Vanilla Smoke (Blue Exorcist)

Chapter 5

Sorry, the chapter's kinda really short.

Ryuji walked up to the Reaper, mumbling to himself, steadily his voice got louder. "I'm not a coward like you. I'm gonna be a real exorcist someday, and I'll defeat Satan!" He shouted.

Shuku stared at him, eyes wide, then he went back to his usual expression quickly and smirked. Wasn't that funny? It wasn't that Shuku couldn't think he could do it, it was that he had the guts to shout it out like that. There was a second of silence as Ryuji realized what he had just proclaimed, then Polka-brow laughed. Shuku turned his head her direction, casting a deadly glaring, it wasn't funny, not even to him.

      "You hear what he said, he's gonna defeat Satan, seriously." Izumo giggled.

Shuku slipped out a sharpened pencil, that girl was getting on his nerves. Tossing the pencil in the air once before catching it and throwing it dart-style at Poka-brow. It whistled through the air, an everyday object turned into a deadly yellow dart. It flashed right in front of her face, and inch from her nose at most, and she shut up, bewildered.

      At that moment, Ryuji cracked, and the reaper roared in a shocked Skunk's face, realizing, he fucked up. Reacting before Shuku could, Rin jumped down into the arena, directly in front of the angered reaper. The jump was inhuman in itself, but yet, he was the son of Satan after all. Shuku darted over, into the cloud of dust, and saw Rin with a hand on the reaper as it released him. Shuku let out a quick laugh to himself.

       "What do you think you're doing? Are you insane?" Rin asked a confused Ryuji,

        "Listen up! I'm the one the one that going to defeat Satan, so stay outta my way!" Rin announced.

         The look on Skunk's face! Shuku could help but let out a small laugh. 

         "What the hell? You're insane! Man you could have gotten killed, and don't copy my ambition! Shuku's bad enough!" He yelled. Shuku blinked and stopped laughing, since when was he apart of this?

        "What does Shuku have of do with any of this!? And it was mine first!" Rin yelled back.

         "No it wasn't! I decided I was gonna do it before you or Shuku did!" Ryuji yelled back. Shuku had no intrest in their target whatsoever, and he didn't want any part of this.

        Confusion was written clearly over the Idiot's face, "Shuku? You're going after Satan too?"

         "Hey! I never said I was going after Satan! Don't assume things!" Shuku huffed, slightly raising his voice.

       "Then what demon are you going after?! You never said, and you made it sound like a big deal!" Ryuji shouted in Shuku's face.

        "The one I'm going after is none of your concern. I'm getting the one that fucked up my face, not Satan." Shuku gave a poisonous glare, but it wasn't directed at them, rather something not there. The other two blinked.

        "Yeah, you do have a scar on your face, I never noticed. You're so pale it really isn't visible." Rin pointed at the white line on Shuku's face.

        "What's that supposed to mean?! It messed with my fucking eye more than my face!" Shuku retaliated. He really didn't like getting into arguments, but when it came to something he disliked or believed, he wasn't afraid to stand up for himself.

      "Your eye looks fine!" Rin stated, and Shuku sighed.

       "I think he means the other one you dumbass!" Skunk shouted.

        "Oh, what's wrong with it?" Rin asked, his head tilted in curiosity.

With a sigh, Shuku pushed his bangs out of his other eye so it was visible. He got plenty of weird looks when he didn't cover it up. Or, more anyways.

        "What the?! It's fucking lavender! How the hell did that happen?!" Rin exclaimed, making Shuku uncomfortable.

        "I don't think it's normal for someone to have one green eye then a lavender one." Ryuji stated, bluntly.

Shuku averted his eyes, now uncomfortable. His eye was one of the very few sensitive topics Shuku greatly disliked talking about since he was about 10. 

          Though Shuku's natural eye color was a pine green, his other eye, which was not visible along with the other half of the scar, was a bright lavender, it almost seemed to glow. The scar that was usually only half visible before ran straight across his eye, and then halved his eyebrow before stopping. In the light, all he got from it was a blurry mess, and that messed him up. It was much better to keep it covered up.

       "A story I'm not willing to share except that I'm getting the demon back for it. And a few other things as well." Shuku stated, then hid his eye. Walking off the two started arguing about who decided to beat Satan first now that Shuku was out of it.

        Shuku eyed a hallway a floor above. Stalking was his specialty.

To understand that last part, you'd have to have watched the anime. Yukio was there watching Rin from above on orders to monitor him. So.... Later! Remember to vote and Comment!
