A/N : Hey. It's me, again!^^ Here with another story. I know I have Itachi's Voodoo Hotline and stuff to work on, but this just popped in my head all of a sudden, and I had to write it down. It was a must thing. Understand? Er.... You might not. But that doesn't matter. Anyway, this story another AkuRoku ~ (Yay!) And maybe a bit of RikuSora. OR maybe that shall wait for my sequel~! Well, Im planning one at least cuz this story is only going to be approximately 7 or 8 chapters long. Anyway, we'll see at the end of this story, if you guys want a sequel. (I'm betting you will.)

Enough of my long ramble-ness. Oh, this story is my first try at first person, so I hope it goes over well. Enjoy~!

________________________________

I was plunged into darkness. There was a gross, sickening smell - urine, blood, sweat. I was panicking, working my hands aganist the rope that secured them, jerking and twisting in the hold I was in.

I heard Axel's sigh. I opened my mouth to say something, anything, but I heard my voice crack and die. Axel laughed.

Tears pricked at my eyes behind the blindfold. This was it. All Axel and I had worked for....

I was shoved harshly, I cried out. My face smacked against a rough wall. I could feel it bleeding. Hands - rough, calloused- grabbed me and turned me over, and Axel's cold voice rang in my ears, "What a weak human." My sob got caught in my throat.

My heart rate sped up, and I could feel cold breath on my face. I screamed, and the same rough hands covered my mouth. I struggled.

And then there was teeth and claws, fangs, ripping at my skin, ripping me apart. Breaking my bones, spilling my blood, splattering it on the walls. Sickening, gross, wet noises. My voice died.

Pain. Pain. Pain. Pain.

I could feel the litres of blood I possessed in my body, spilling out, everywhere. Augh, the smell. I couldn't move. There was laughter echoing. More pain.

My eyes rolled back in my head, my eyes closing. The pain, pain, of it all was too much. Igniting me on fire. Dragging me down, down, down, down....

Vaguely, with what I could muster - Was I hearing right? - Axel knelt down beside me. I could tell by his cold little laugh. I felt his cool fangs pierce my neck. I went completely limp.

And knew what true betrayal was.

I could hear a vague sucking sound, and then water fell on my neck only to burn and sear my open wounds. Pain - no, no, no. My brain had trouble. I was falling.

Tears. Tears on my neck. Was Axel...

Then there was nothing.

Hey. My name's Roxas Strife. Eighteen years old. College freshman. I live with my younger brother, Sora. My best friends are Hayner, Pence and Olette. My life was pretty normal. Went to College, listen to lecture after lecture, takes notes, come home, study. Sometimes I had free time to hang out. Which was always nice. I could do whatever I wanted - freedom - it was nice. Until I met Axel, that is. This is my story.

"Owww!Sora!" I complained, rubbing my head softly.

"Sora! Look what you did!"
"Yeah, man. Watch out!"
"Sora..."
"Ehehehe...."

I glanced up through my blonde locks, locking eyes with Sora, who rubbed the base of his neck sheepishly. "Sorry, Rox." He held out his hand.

I took his hand and hauled myself up. I brushed the fallen leaves off my shirt and pants and smiled, "No problem, Sor. How the heck did you hit me with that ball, anyways?"

"Ah!Well, I just threw it...and...the wind caught it, y'know..."
"Uh huh."
"Rox! I sai-"

"Hey! Can we get on with the game already?"

I blinked, and looked over to where Hayer stood, loftily holding a bat. I took my place as pitcher. I tested the ball's weight in my hand - I had picked it up after it hit me - and smirked, "Ready for this, Hayner?"

The boy grinned, "Please, Roxas, I can handle anything you can deal."

I laughed, aimed the ball, and threw it. A loud crack resounded and the ball flew out left field. I watched it go, "Hey, Olette, that's yours!"

I saw her laugh, run for the ball, and miss."Aw, man!" She muttered as she returned the ball to me. I smiled, and Sora leaned in, supportive as always, "Good job, Olette! You almost got it!"

She smiled and thanked him, and suggested ice cream. We all agreed, gathered or stuff up, and left the park.

It was about nine o'clock when Sora and I got home. Sora immediately dove for the couch, snatching up his new vampire book he'd been reading.

I sighed, it was impossible to get Sora out of that book when he started. I went upstairs to change into something more comfortable. When I came back down, I was surprised to see Sora staring at me, his book placed back on the table.

"Your not going to read anymore, Sor?" I walked into the kitchen to make myself some food.

"Nah," I heard him call. He didn't speak for awhile. Only when I had finished making and eating my sandwich, and came back into the room, he spoke, "Hey, Rox..."

I nodded, "Yeah, Sor?"
"Do you think Vampires are real?"

I almost choked, "Sor. They're fictional creatures. They don't exist."
"But what if they did?"
I gave him a look, "They don't."

"But let's just pretend - If they did, wouldn't it be cool to be one?"

"And have your life taken from you? Watch all those you love die?"
"Way to be negative."
"It's true."

I watched Sora leaned further towards me, his eyes bright with excitement,"Well, I think it'd be cool to be one. Rox, if you were one, would you change me?"

I frowned. Sora always came up with weird questions like that. He should really stop reading those books...

"Well, if I was thinking seriously about it?" I saw Sora nod eagerly, "No, never. Not even if you asked."

Sora immediately pouted, "What?! Why not?"

I shrugged, and turned, ending the conversation."I'm going to bed, Sor. Playing baseball tired me out. G'night."

I was up the stairs and almost in my room when I heard the soft reply, "G'night, Rox."

Short, but it's only an introductory chapter. They'll be longer. Promise. ^^ So, what'd you think about the chapter? I forgot to give Pence a line in the baseball scene...but have no fear, he is there!Er...somewhere.

Watch out for foreshadowing, lovely people~! (Some in this chappie, see if you can find it. ^.- It's not that hard to find, however....)

Don't forget : Many drops make a shower! (Random-ness, yay!)
