Cram School
Rin stretched as she finally got out of class for the day. She was placed in 1-D. Hopefully, she’d be able to test out of there soon. She’d fallen a bit behind in her studies while looking for a job since no High School would take her. Stupid judgemental teachers, she never even started those fights. She only finished them. She held back, too, thanks to Hedwig.
“Hey, girl, how was your hunt?” Rin asked the ice phoenix/service animal. She had found Hedwig as an egg and raised her. Thanks to her funds from her videos, she could get her and Yukio appointments with some specialists. Comet to find out Yukio has an inferiority complex and anxiety; she had dyslexia and ADHD, according to Mephisto that was common for half-demons. Made her wonder about those books she read as a kid.
Hedwig helped her keep focus and calm her when she became too enraged. It’s incredible how being reborn into a different world she can be reunited with her best friend, sister, mother. Honestly, if she didn’t know any better, she’d think Yukio was Neville in a past life.
“I do believe we should get going,” Mephisto said in front of her but as a dog.
“Fan of Howls moving castle, huh?”She smirked at the dog.
“Is that an Ice Phoenix? I know I approved of a service animal, but I didn’t realize she was an Ice Phoenix in disguise. Do you know how rare they are?” Mephisto asked in amusement.
“I mean, I found her as an egg and raised her. Guess she decided I was a good companion.” Rin shrugged, shocking the Demon.
“What?”
“You…are not what I expected.” Is all he said as he led her to the cram school area.
Rin kept her silence as she followed the Demon through the dimensional portals. Led to the classroom when she entered, she saw a familiar face.
“Hey, Shima—san didn’t know you were enrolled in cram school too.” Rin waved to her classmate.
“Ah, Rin-chan, I’m glad to see such a pre—” Shima froze in fear as a bullet grazed past his head into the wall.
“I’d appreciate it if you didn’t flirt with my sister Shima—San.” Yukio smiled sinisterly at the pink-haired boy.
“Yukio, I can take care of myself; besides, he’s not my type.” Rin shrugged as Shima gained a dismayed look on his face.
“Why not~” he whined.
“Because you’re a lazy, whiny boy?” She snarked.
“Rin—Chan, that’s too cruel.”
“Oh, shut up, Shima, stop flirting with every skirt you see.” Bon snapped at the pink-haired pervert.
Rin merely laughed at the dismayed boy's frown before taking her seat next to the girl in a hoodie. Whoever she was, she definitely wasn’t a student. Something about her made Hedwig uneasy, and she’s pretty sure she could hear snakes around the woman.
“Now that’s taken care of, let’s get the class started.” Yukio grinned as he began to lecture on different demons and asked who didn’t have a taint. Rin had a feeling that one of the candidates wasn’t entirely sure about becoming an exorcist, so she may have knocked the blood over. Once everyone evacuated, she sealed the doors and pulled her sword out.
“Really Rin?” Yukio’s vein twitched.
“You really want someone unsure to become an exorcist?” Rin asked as she sliced through a horde of goblins.
“Point,” Yukio said as he shot the other goblins. When’d his sister get so…ah that’s where she went after school. He wondered what she’d used her extra money for.
“You two are absolutely no fun, you know that?” Mephisto pouted as he popped into the remains of the room. He was hoping they’d argue over what happened to Shiro. Not whatever the fuck this was.
“I think we’re pretty fun,” Rin smirked at her brother.
“I mean, we are the only ones you can’t get a clear picture of, right?” Yukio grinned wide at the time demon.
“How'd the hell did you two know that?” Mephisto asked.
“Fuck you, that’s how.” The twins said at the same time.
“Shiro, let you watch that show.”
“What is this, let you speak of?” Rin asked.
“I don’t recall ever asking dad about it, do you?” Yukio replied, smirking at his twin while Mephisto groaned.
This must be how the Weasly twins felt. Rin thought to herself as she left the building.
