Chapter 18: True Cross...
(Y/N) POV:
I ran, tripping over my own feet I fell hard onto the pavement. I could hear voices getting louder behind me, I had to get up. My body ached as I forced myself up and continued to run. I needed to get help. I needed HIS help! "There he is! Don't let him escape!" I felt hot tears stream down my face, I was so close, please don't let them catch me.—18 hours earlier—
I rubbed my lower back as I got ready for school, a dull ache throbbed through my spine. Today wasn't going to be comfortable. Sitting was going to be hard and I was also going to have to wear a scarf again, Rin had really done a number on me last night. I hear Rin call my name from the kitchen and knew that breakfast must be ready, I gathered my things for the day and set out.Rin and I walked to school after breakfast, he seemed extremely happy today and I couldn't help but chuckle at how easy it was to read him. I wanted to reach out and hold his hand but I wasn't too sure yet on how the twins wanted to deal with PDA, it might be awkward if both display affection towards me publicity if they don't explain before hand the type of relationship we have. People might think I'm cheating on the other with their brother. And that would be a headache to sort out, as well as embarrassing. So for now, we keep acting like friends in public.
School went by normally, everyone in class was pretty happy and loud. Joking around with each other and chatting. Even Yukio seemed to be in a good mood, smiling with the others and making fun of the things Rin did as a child. It was like nothing could go wrong, that incident a distant memory.
I heard the bell ring and I packed up my things, I met Rin and Yukio by the front desk and asked if they wanted to go out for a snack. Yukio declined the offer since he had work still but Rin seemed excited, "We should go get burgers! There's a really good place not that far from here." I agreed and we left. The entire walk I could see Rin glancing at the scarf around my neck, like he was trying to get a peak at his marks. Images of last night repeated in my mind and left a flush across my cheeks. We eventually got to the burger place, McConalds. We went inside and ordered some food, the place was fairly busy. Lots of students from school were here to buy fries and junk food. It was odd to see the normal students and exorcist students mingle, the normal students having no idea what we all actually went to school for. Our order came up and we grabbed a seat outside to eat. We talked and ate our food, "How are you feeling today (Y/N)?" He glanced at my neck again. I smiled, "I feel great, a bit stiff but great. Everyone seems to be in a really good mood today, it's nice to see all their smiles again." Rin smiled back at me, he reached out and rugged at the scarf a bit, "I want to see." I flushed and grabbed his hand quickly, "stop. Remember what I said about terrible timing? We're in public!" I tried to keep my voice low so I wouldn't draw attention. Rin pouted and returned to his food, I gave him a sympathetic look, "once we're back at the dorms you can look as much as you want." He perked back up and happily ate his food. He was so cute, like a puppy. We both finished our food and headed back towards our dorm, once we were out of sight from most people Rin reached out and help my hand. We interlocked our fingers and I couldn't help but grin, it felt nice to do little things like this with him.—Time skip—
Rin was in the kitchen preparing dinner when Yukio arrived home, he seemed tired and immediately flopped into the chair next to me. "What's for dinner?" I smiled, "Rins making a beef stew, he said he wanted something a bit different tonight." Yukio nodded and leaned his head back, a small sigh escaping his lips. "Are you okay Yukio?" He frowned, "No, I have this uneasy feeling. After everyone left today I noticed the other teachers acting a bit odd around me. I don't like it, they must have heard something." I felt my blood go cold, "you don't think the true cross is planning on bringing up the incident do you? It's been so long now, wouldn't they have acted already if they were going to?" Yukio could easily see the anxiety written on your face, he reached and and ran his hand through your hair, "I wish I could say I know the answer but, the true cross is very unpredictable. I don't know how they'll respond to Rins incident. All I can do is try and keep you both safe." I leaned into him and he hugged me, it felt safer in his arms. "(Y/N)? What's this?" He tugged at the back of my scarf revealing a perfect bite mark. I flushed and jumped back, "Ah, ha that's nothing. Just a little nip." I expected him to be jealous like Rin but instead he laughed, "So Rin finally got his turn huh?" He leaned in and whispered, "I still had you first." I could feel how warm his breath was and my heart raced. I teasingly pushed his chest, trying to get a bit of breathing room, but he quickly grabbed my wrist and pulled me closer. He leaned in and placed a light kiss on my forehead. "Your reactions are adorable." My body went into overdrive and I scrambled out of my seat and towards the kitchen. "H-hey Rin, hows it going in here?" He looked and me and grinned, "Almost done! Did yukio just get back?" I nodded, "perfect, let him know that we'll be eating soon.

I checked my clock, 10:15 pm. I rubbed my neck and looked at my completed homework, it never did get easier to finish. I turned my lights off and flipped in my bed, not even bothering to change out of my uniform. Right now I need sleep. It didn't take long to drift off.

I woke up to a bang down the hallway, towards Yukios room. I felt my adrenaline kick in, time seemed to slow down. Quick flashes of the abduction raced through my mind. I looked at the clock, 12:45 pm. I ran to the door and cracked it open, peeking down the hall. I could just barely see two silhouettes moving away from my room, I crept out of my room as quietly as I could and made my way towards Rins room. right as I was about to open his door I could hear Yukio yelling, gunshots, and then more yelling. I couldn't make out what he was saying but it felt like my insides were being scrapped out. His voice sounds fierce but scared. So scared. I went into Rins room and found him sleeping still, "really?" I shook him awake as fast as I could and shushed him before he made a racket, "we need to get help, someone's here." Yukios yelling stopped and I felt my whole body tense. Like I couldn't move or breath. Rin seemed to click into the situation immediately, he grabbed for kurikara but I stopped him. "No rin, you can't use your demon blood. We have to escape, go get help." I heard footsteps coming down the hallway and I tried to pull Rin towards the window, "we have to go, we can get help." My voice was weak, like I was trying to convince myself not Rin. But Rin wouldn't move, he gave me a sad smile, "Run, Run as fast as you can away from here. I'm going to get my brother." He pushed my hands off of him and grabbed his sword, he was going to fight. My heart screamed at me to stay, to help them, but my body took over. I was scared, and I ran like a coward. I opened his window and jumped outside, booking it towards the only person I thought might be able to help. Mephisto. He has influence in the true cross, he might be able to save them. But he would be surrounded by true cross exorcists. I shook my head, no doubts just run. And I did. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, I tried to stay off main roads or paths and ended up tripping over many rocks and branches. But I kept getting up, I couldn't stop. My bare feet throbbed and my toes felt like ice, it hurt. Everything hurt, my feet, my knees, my lungs, my heart. I kept running. I didn't know if anyone from the dorms had followed me, I refused to look back. I knew it wouldn't matter once I was at the academy, there would be many more there. I could see the large structure looming over me, it's shadow swallowing me up. I could hear voices in front of me, there must be exorcists out patrolling. I ducked into some bushes and watched. 3 of them walked by me and turned towards my dorm, my heart felt like it had hit my shoes. Did that mean Rin was still fighting? Should I have stayed to help him? Or was he caught? What's going to happen to them? I slapped my cheeks, I have to keep going. I checked my surroundings before continuing to run, I was so close now. I could feel the presence of the academy, a glimmer of hope. All shattered. "Who's over there!?" My heart stopped, I looked behind me to see two exorcists. Both with guns drawn and pointed at my chest. I put my hands up and whimpered, "p-please don't shoot." One of them seemed confused, "what's a student doing out here right now?" The other jabbed him in the ribs, "idiot, that's one of them. The half-breeds." I tried to slowly back up, "stop moving!" He whispered into the others ear, "they should have all been captured, report this in." I didn't know how I heard him but I did. I looked around for anywhere to run and hide, a way to escape them. To my right was just building, and my left, foliage. My best bet would be to run through the foliage and use it as some cover to try and out run them. I waited for one of them to move and then booked it into the bushes, scrambling through the thick foliage and onto the other side. I tried to duck my head and run as I heard them fire. I prayed to any god that might be listening to help me, to help me escape and to help Rin and yukio. To keep us safe. I ran, tripping over my own feet I fell hard onto the pavement. I could hear voices getting louder behind me, I had to get up. My body ached as I forced myself up and continued to run. I needed to get help. I needed HIS help! "There he is! Don't let him escape!" I felt hot tears stream down my face, I was so close, please don't let them catch me. I could feel my blood burning, a golden light flickered in my eyes. It felt like I could run faster, my body lighter. I shot around a corner and ducked into a side door of the school. But it would seem no gods listen to demons. Inside were more exorcists. I stopped in my tracks and stared in horror, was my luck really this bad? I was surrounded with no escape. I hung my head, my light going out. "Raise your hands!" I put my hands up and waited. I felt a sickening blow to my stomach and I fell to the ground, I could feel one of them Lin me to the ground and put cuffs on me. It felt like the cuffs were sapping my strength and the toll tonight had on my body it me like a truck. No more adrenaline, no more demon blood. Just a bruised and beaten child. I failed.
