The Downfall Has Its Perks

Chapter 7

3rd-

Shura and Izumo soon headed back to their dorms through the gate, and as they waved good bye to their demon friends, they dreaded what was awaiting them when they returned. Izumo grabbed onto Shuras bare arm as she looked at the boys, and girl, standing in front of them. They had angry looks and their arms crossed over their chests in disappointment.

"How stupid can you be?" Questioned Yukio as he reached for Izumo, who in turn, stepped out of the way and behind Shura. "Being friends with Rin and the other demon kings...you said he was gone forever."

"Why would you think we actually killed the boy? He is the sweetest kid I have ever met in all my time of being in this class. You would think that Shiemi would be the sweetest but actually, its Rin." The ex-wires, and exorcist looked at the two in hatred. "His caring personality is like no other." Shura said and pulled out a picture from her shorts pocket.

"This is his restaurant/hospital and anyone can go there, no matter how evil, weak, or strong you are." Izumo pointed to the small building in the picture to show what she meant. "His first day opening, he made friends with everyone that came in there." She let out a small smile as she thought about the craziness that day. "They're already overprotective of the new sweetheart."

"He is a monster. A being that should have been killed long ago." Bon spoke fiercely as Miwa was telling him to shut up or the demons will come and kill him. Even though they were nowhere around, he still had a high fear that they could hear him from all the way in Gehenna.

"He's your brother Yukio! Your twin!" Shura shook Yukio by the shoulders, yelling in his face. "How can you be so blind? Don't you see that you're the son of Satan as well?" The ex-wires looked at their sensei in question. "You have his blood running through your VEINS!" She all but screamed as her fists tightened, most likely leaving a bruise.

"He is no brother of mine." Yukio said as he turned around and started to walk away. He didn't want to hear any excuse that Shura can come up with.

"Have you ever wondered why you never got any bullies for being smarter than anyone else?" Shura questioned as she stepped one foot in front of her. "Rin got beat up for you. He never got into fights, but instead dealt with the pain while others ridiculed him for something he didn't do."

Yukio turned his head slowly to look behind him. The sincerity in her eyes was what got him believing what Shura was saying. "You mean all those times he came home with bruises. They weren't from fighting?" Yukio was hesitant and gripped his gun a little tight from inside his coat pocket.

"He didn't want to harm anyone and if he did, it was out of pure defense." Shura started to step away from the group with Izumo next to her. "You hurt him, and don't think for a second that we will let you near Rin for his own safety." Then they were running down to there dorm to cool off from this unexpected conversation.

Yukio was sitting in his room, thinking about what Shura said to him a little before he got back to his room. 'What she said was true. No one ever asked if he was not getting into fights but just presumed it was just that.' He was wrong to think of his brother as nothing. He was his twin for damn sake!

Maybe if he looked and spent the time with his brother he would notice the little hints that Rin was trying to protect him. If only he didn't push him away since they were younger. He was the one that dealt with all the bullies, the harsh words, and the daily scoldings he got for getting into trouble with other kids his age and older.

He wanted his twin back, and nothing was going to get in his way. Not even Satan or his sons that he doesn't know fully about.

Despising a plan, Yukio wrote over ways to get Rin all to himself the next time he visits. This means that he will have to hover around Izumo and Shura to see him. And if he has to go to Gehenna than so be it. He will do anything to get his brother back. Nothing will stand in his way to make up for what he has done and he wont leave Rin alone until they make up.
