My Life In Blue Exorcist

When I opened my eyes everything around me is bright with a blue light annoyingly hitting me in the face. I raise my right hand to cover my eyes, but then I realise im holding something like a stick.

Why am I holding sticks in both my hands?

When I focus my eyes on the 'sticks' I realise it's a sword and it's sheathe.

Dafuq? A sword? Why the f.u.c.k am I holding a sword? What the heck is going on and where am I?

I look around in confusion, hoping to find something or someone to answer my question. But when I looked at a certain something, it wasn't what I was hoping for.

"Holy shit!"

What I look in front of me was a corpse. A corpse of a man that looks 40 something years-old. With a goatee made of stubble, grey hair and a cross on his forehead. Why does he look familiar? Why's he covered in burn marks and blood? What the f.u.c.k happened here?

"Where the f.u.c.k am I?"

Last thing I remember I should still be on my bed. So how'd I end up in this situation with a dead body and a sword...wait, why's it on fire?! And whys it blue?!

I jumped out of my kneeling position to look for something to extinguish the flames. Wait. Why was I kneeling on one leg in the first place?

It wasn't until I looked to my right, I saw it. Well, me, Rin. Rin Okumura. That's me. But why? How did I get here? This isn't a joke, is it?

"Aaaaghh."

Just when I was thinking about how stupid this situation is, my head started pounding as I screamed in pain. It felt like something was forcing itself inside my head. Then I started to see pictures moving as if I was watching a movie playing in my head.

When I opened my eyes again I saw a scene where I, Rin, drew my sword and destroyed the Gate of Gehenna. But, still, why am I here? In the body of Rin Okumura?

I looked at the corpse in front of me again but this time I felt something choking me as I screamed.

"Father!"

Tears started falling out of my eyes as I look at the corpse. Yes. He was my father that looked after me for the last 15 years. Father Fujimoto, my father and the strongest exorcist, Dead. Killed by me.

I grabbed his body, not caring for the disgusting smell of burnt flesh and his face covered in blood and hugged him with all my might.

"I'm sorry. I'm sorry."

I repeated those words over and over again till I passed out. Seems like I was tired from awakening my powers, even though I was technically not there yet.

-Yukio pov-

I heard a loud noise and ran towards the bas.e.m.e.nt where nii-san was at. I beg that none of the Demon's broke through to him. Although everything should be alright with father being there, I need to see with my own eyes that he's alright.

A few minutes ago, I was supposed to be at the station since all my stuff's already been sent to true cross academy but, when I called father he didn't answer his phone. I felt something was wrong, father always answers his phone calls even if he's in a meeting with our teachers, he'll prioritize the call over what's happening around him. After all it's a habit of being an exorcist. So I headed back to make sure nothing happened. Although there are few things that can defeat father, I know he isn't invincible so I ran back as fast as I can.

When I took a corner to see the monastery, I find it destroyed with the gates destroyed and with a truck sticking out of it. Shit. Was there a Demons attack? I increased my speed and I met the other priest clearing out the rest of the demons inside of the monastery.

(Yukio): "Nagamoto-san what happened?"

(Nagamoto): "Yukio...Rin has awakened his flames. The situation at hand is already taken care of. Right now father Fujimoto should be giving Rin kurikara. They should be underneath the monastery right now."

Nii-san awakened his flames? No wonder the Demons are acting wild. Since I was young I was told that nii-san and I are both twin sons of Satan. However, unlike me, who was too weak to handle Satan's flames, nii-san was able to inherit it. Although I've never seen them before, I've been told by many how frightening they are, especially by my superiors.

I ran to the underground room with Nagamoto-san and the rest of the priest following behind. I had Nagamoto-san open the lock to the door and we entered only to see chaos.

(Yukio): "Father! Rin!"

The room inside was charred black with the smell of blood lingering in the air. Everything from the scrolls and the talismans on the wall to the furniture got burnt. At the centre of the room was nii-san holding father covered in blood.

I ran towards the duo to see if they were still alive. Please. Please tell me they're still alive. When I got closer to them the disgusting smell of blood and burnt flesh intensified making me feel sick but I endured and got closer to nii-san still hugging father even though he looks like he's out cold.

I separated the two and checked fathers pulse... Only to feel no contraction of valves. even his breathing has long since stopped.

(Yukio): "Father! Please don't leave me!"

I hugged father as hard as I could. Hoping that holding him like this will keep his soul from leaving. But reality isn't like that, and even though I'm aware that my actions are meaningless. Tears are streaming down my face as I hold father.

The other priest came soon after me. All with shock in their faces. Why? Father was the strongest. There's no way Satan would've possessed him now when he's failed for the last 16 years.

While I was crying, thoughts of doubt appeared in my mind. Father was the strongest. He was a Paladin. He had the will to resist Satan, so how did he manage to fall now of all times?

(Nagamoto): "Yukio... We need to cremate his body and build him a grave... Else demons will soon possess his body... Lets let Father Fujimoto leave this world with his dignity remained."

Nagamoto-san approached the crying me, patting my back and told me to... part ways with father.

Why? I haven't shown you how much I've grown. I wanted you to still teach me stuff. Why did you have to die?

I had to have Nagamoto-san peel me off of father before I could scream this question burning within me.

When I leave my father's embrace these thoughts didn't decrease at all. Father was the strongest. He was a legend. But he's dead. By Satan.

But... How? How did Satan manage to do something he failed for many years now? And why now? Something must've happened.

I got my answer when I looked over my shoulder. Rin. It must be. Father wouldn't have lost his will even for a moment unless it was something that hurt him at an emotional level.

(Yukio): "Rin!"

I raised my guns towards my brother, the brother that I swore to protect.

(Nagamoto): "Yukio, stop this at once!"

Nagamoto grab my gun as soon as he realised what I was going to do.

(Yukio): "let go of me."

In a cold voice that surprised even myself, I told Nagamoto-san to release me.

(Yukio): "He's awakened his flames, there's no telling what he's going to do when he wakes up."

(Nagamoto-san): "Trust me, Yukio. Whatever you were about to do, I know it's something you'll regret it till your death as Rin's brother or as an exorcist. Go rest up, the rest of the priest will take care of the funeral and the mess here. Remember to go to sir Pheles office after the funeral and report the death of Father Fujimoto. Don't let Shiro's death be in vain."

(Yukio): "Fine."

I took a deep breath and started counting back from 10 to calm down. I looked back at my father and then back to nii-san then began to follow Nagamoto-san's advice to rest up and walked out of the bas.e.m.e.nt.
