Chapter 1: A new beginning

Chapter Text

A mustard coloured ribbon flew through the air it was guided towards a school window landing into the palm of a young middle school aged Rin.

The blue eyed boy examined the ribbon curiously “J.T...huh must belong to someone” he mumbled to himself as he saw the neat embroidery of what seemed to be initials, he pocketed the fabric vowing to find the owner and return it.

A few months before our story takes place...

Rin chased after the ribbon as it flew he looked incredulous as it was seemingly leading him somewhere he followed quickly. It seemed to go deep into a field he saw a hill with a huge Sakura tree, it landed before the hill. He sighed as he trudged up the hill, he froze eyes widening in slight horror at what he saw at the trunk of the tree.

 

His nose curled at the stench of blood there were seven bodies all bloody but he could hear their heartbeats and short breaths. His heart dropped when he saw what seemed to be three children amongst the bodies, he grimaced but took out his phone he gulped as it rang.

”Mephisto...yeah look I need to call in a favour..I owe you one if you help me with this,” he pushed away the regret at making a deal with the clown in favour of checking them for any major injuries.

A few seemed to be missing limbs but it was clear that they weren’t the source of injuries, a man with long ginger hair Rin was confused the man was missing a limb but the arm he still had had a circled cut around where if completely cut off all that would be left was a nub. He waited doing what he could with The injuries as he waited for help, in the end Rin had written a few pages worth of a note explaining how he had found them. 

Now...let the story begin...

Rin was quiet it had been a few weeks after Yukio came back from the illuminati in tears and regret, Rin was happy but there was a deep seeded distrust placed in him towards Yukio. He couldn’t help it, after everything they had been through together Yukio left him, tried to kill him! 

Needless to say Rin was looking through a book on different races, worlds and universes, contrary to what everyone but his family Rin was quite academically skilled. He seemed to had inherited Satan’s intelligence fully though reckless and instinct driven as a young child he quickly realised he was a lot smarter than normal.

It began when he was bored in class due to all the work being to easy in middle school he had started to learn English but quickly got the hang of it, Shiro had to buy college level books to keep him entertained. Yukio surprisingly was not jealous as he had someone to tutor him with things he could not understand. Though halfway through middle school Shiro and the rest of their family silently stared at Rin with sad eyes as he declared he wanted to drop out wanting people to think he was an idiot, but what had hurt more was his reason why “People already are frightened of me but...they will even more terrified when they learn how smart I am!” He shouted.

Shiro grimaced but accepted it as sadly that was the truth so Rin stayed at home helping out at the monastery and studying different languages to keep him preoccupied.

Yukio was ecstatic when Rin said he wanted to go to the library since he had finished reading the books from Yukio’s current lessons, Yukio wanted it to be fair on the ex-wires so Rin wouldn’t slip up in class.

Rin yelped as he was teleported to Mephisto’s office he turned to yell at the clown when he froze at the look of serious curiosity in the demon’s eyes. “So~ I have been informed of your true knowledge and It is time for you to repay your favour!” The purple haired idiot chimed grinning.

Rin grimaced as he sighed motioning for the cheery clown to continue “So Rin-chan the seven you rescued need someone to rely on as they get accustomed to the world they know the basics of technology but not with demons and just basic living,” Mephisto explained “We figure since you found and saved them you could help them!” He finished with a clap.

Rin frowned but sat back reviewing the request, he sighed and nodded as he had made his decision. “Yeah..I accept I need a change of pace...i’m guessing I’ll be living with them, so where will we all be living?” He asked already planning and making a schedule.

”uh...well, um England?”

...

...

...

”What the fuck did you just say?”

After fully informing how the moving will go in two weeks Rin was fully packed and waiting nervously for his brother and friends to arrive he had a day left before leaving and of course he forgot well was too nervous to tell them.

Once everyone was silent and all attention was focused solely on him he gulped “So..tomorrow moving to England...to live with the group I rescued...” he winced at his blunt wording.

There was an immediate uproar he let them vent for a few moments before explaining they looked crestfallen but nodded all planning to call and visit every so often. 

Rin Sighed it was now time to go he tearily had a proper moment with his brother their intertwined fingerless gloves fitting together as they cried.

Mephisto was giddy he smiled softly and treated Rin kindly which Rin couldn’t help but feel happy at.

 

He was in front of a two story house Mephisto had been generous seeing as he was the King of Time, Rin gulped as the front door open out stepped a- Oh HOLY SHIT HE WAS TALL-
