Chapter 1: Divide The Hate
The despair-filled words of the song 'Divide The Hate' (A/N:By Submersed yeah!) filled the head of an orange/brown-haired boy as he laid down on the soft, but moist grass. Yeah…this was a bad idea- should've sat on a bench… or something like that, the teenage boy in a hoodie stood up as the shadows coiled around him. "I've still gotta get used to this- it's been like two months and it still feels so weird," he said with a chuckle. He had to be honest though; his new power had helped him massively in surviving, although he sometimes suspected there was something more sinister about it than met the eye. His inner self as well… they had met a couple of times after the first meeting, and every time he would learn a bit more about himself. He was involved in something big within the world, and there were secrets that the organisations of the World kept from the normal people; from his already weird lifestyle, he'd guessed there might have been more abnormal people out there… that he was correct about, but had yet to experience it. "Hey Yuuki! Hey human snow cone!" a voice pierced his mind as he sat in thought. Turning around to face the one with the assailing voice, he sprung up, the grass slowly swaying in the wake of his jump. Before him stood a teenage girl- she was around his age (only in appearance though), with long flowing curly-ish blonde hair, is quite tall, and has a pretty face. She also has red eyes. "Very funny… but I'd prefer if you called me properly instead of making puns out of my name. I don't make fun out of you after all..." His face turned into a smirk as he continued, "or are you still bitter about me owning you and your vampire prowess?" The girl's eyes turned a shade redder, and a knife made from the earth barely missed the now-identified Yuuki Rito as he narrowly sidestepped out of the way. "I could kill you right here, you know? So don't push your luck…" the blonde girl warned.
"Halal it… I mean allow it… no, no, no- you shouldn't start a fight with people for no reason at all, Viktoria. After all, I'm the kind Samaritan who took you in after an unknown assailant injured you…" Rito commented with a smile. "You're unbelievable…" Viktoria sighed and shook her head, "let's go now, Mikan and everyone is waiting for you… you really are an idiot brother to Mikan…" she muttered in annoyance as she headed towards the Yuuki household. Rito, seeing he had nothing much to do, followed suit, and made his way out of the park as the afternoon ended.
Without a care in the world, Rito walked into his home, looking for his family members & friends, followed by an annoyed Viktoria. "Heh, who'd have thought vampires really existed… I guess you live, you learn, right Viktoria?" Rito asked with a faint grin. "You can be so annoying…" she replied with a sigh.
"I know you really like me…"
"I really don't…"
"I know that…"
"Then why are you saying that I like you then?"
"I wasn't talking to you, I was talking to the house,"
"You talk to the house? Is this what humans do?
"No, the house talks to me, simples, (insert Meerkat noise) "
"Wow?! How did you do that?" This time, Viktoria looked right up to Rito as he stood there trying not to laugh at her puzzlement. "Uhhh… I'd hate to interrupt the bonding moment, but you should come into the living room instead of just staying here," Mikan said as she saw the situation.
"What?! No! With this guy- that's out of question!" Viktoria shouted, her cheeks usually pale, tainted with a furious red. As she stood there trying to get her composure back, Rito just shrugged and walked into living room. "Hey guys- Lala, Momo & Nana-hime," Rito introduced with a bow at the last part.
"Seriously, stop calling me that," Nana said with anger in her voice.
"Hey Rito-san, looking good as always," the slightly taller Momo complimented.
"Rito, where should we go for a honeymoon?" Lala asked with innocence.
"Wow, wow, wow (processing noises)?! We're not even married yet, so don't get any weird ideas- and where did you even get that idea from?" Rito questioned with suspicion as steam poured out of his head; he thought he saw the strong sparkling of Momo's eyes when he asked that. Man, things here never change- they're always the same… but I guess, they're also different at the same time, making it a good life, Rito reflected with a smile. Viktoria sat down to talk to the Devilukean sisters as Rito made his way to the kitchen where his sister was.
"Mikan, how are you today?" Rito asked with nonchalance, as he started to help in preparing dinner. "I'm fine Rito. Everything's going well for us- I guess it's thanks to you… only in part though," she teased. "But I was surprised, Rito. You took her in, when she not only kidnapped us, but also nearly left you for dead…" Mikan remarked in thought. "That's true, but she needs someone, Mikan. Her family was killed in a merciless manner- they were slaughtered. I have no doubt that she barely survived- she needs support and direction, and I think we can provide that well- plus, she's adapting and adjusting well. I think she gets on well with everyone (except me)," Rito stated with assurance. "But seriously Rito, you always attract the weirdest type of attention," Mikan declared with narrowed eyes.
"Hmmm… I agree, and that will probably continue; like I've said to you before, this World's a big place, and I'll probably be involved in more of the deep end. There are secrets out there, Mikan… they affect our very World and existence. There's conspiracies everywhere- after seeing so much, our World can never be the same (well, mine anyways). But… that's where all the excitement is; I need to go outside, I'll see you in a while, okay?" he finished as he faded out of the kitchen into the outside. Life starts now, hehe, he thought with a small smile.
Hey everyone, I'm back! How's it going, this is Faceless-Corruption94, previously known as R136a- I changed my name, because I needed something more dynamic, and was inspired by a Red song (Faceless). So here's the sequel to the Change, with Viktoria as an ally/friend- themes will be quite similar to the Change, but will also borrow elements from other mangas, e.g. Rosario Vampire. If you haven't read the Change, then read it, as this story will make more sense. I'll try and update at least once a week- it wont be an amazing story, but hopefully, it'll be half decent lol. So enjoy, see yas next weekend!
