This is the real version of Demon Tamer. Thank you for reading!

"Let me go." The young girl growled as she pulled against the boys' arms.

They snickered and pushed her to the ground. She landed on her knees and let out a squeak of pain at the hard contact with the floor. Her dark hair fell in her face as she looked down, biting her lip to keep from crying.

The boys had jumped her when she walked into school and dragged her along to a dark hallway.

"Good job guys." A boy said approaching the gang that towered over the girl. He tilted her head to the side looking at her cheek with a frown.

The girl kept her eyes glued to the floor afraid if she looked at him, he'd see the fear shone in them.

"Oh, Hata." The boy sighed, clicking his tongue, "it really is a pity for you. You're so pretty, yet you've been cursed by the devil."

She glanced at him as the boys snickered. The lead boy took something out of his pocket. Shing went the pocket knife as he popped open the blade running it down her jawline.

"I guess we'll have to cut it out, huh?" He chuckled pressing the point against her cheek.

The girl let out a cry for help thinking no one could actually hear her. She squeezed her eyes shut waiting for pain to overtake her.

"Oof." She heard as one of the boys let go of her arm.

"Hey. What are you doing, Demon?" The lead boy snarled.

Bam! Another punch.

"I'm not a demon! And what do you think you're doing to her!?" A new boy yelled.

"She's cursed. We were just removing it." Another boy said from behind the girl who shrank in fear.

"If she is or isn't, isn't any of your goddamn business." The boy snapped.

The girl looked up as he threw another punch at the boy holding the pocket knife. The boy dodged and went to strike him. Like super-human reflexes, the boy grabbed the bully's hand and swung his fist hitting the boy in the gut.

The gang from earlier gasped and helped their leader up before swiftly walking out of the hallway.

The girl sniffed and wiped her eyes. She looked up to see that the mystery boy had walked closer and was now offering his hand to her. He held a serious look on his face.

"Are you alright?" He asked firmly.

The girl nodded her head and smiled softly, "yeah, thanks to you." She took his hand and he helped her up.

He let go and stuffed his hands in his pant's pockets. He turned away and started to walk out of the hallway.

"Wait." The girl said suddenly.

The boy turned around and looked at her, "yeah?"

"What's your name?" She asked, "I'm Sachiko Hata."

The boy looked at the girl as she looked down shyly. He grinned at her, "Rin Okumura."

That's all for now! Thank you for reading. Till next time, さよなら!
