Hmm, a little strange and very short. I just suddenly thought of it really and decided to put pen to paper. (Okay, hands to keyboard). Please tell me what you think.
Oh, and it's based on the first ever series (not Duellist Kingdom).
-The Job-
"You promise?"
"Promise? Promise what?"
"You know. To save me when I'm in dire peril, to come running when I'm in danger and all that stuff."
"Yeah…I suppose. That is my job now, I think. To protect you."
"Well, you couldn't have picked a harder job! I'm not that easy to protect you know."
"You'll be fine. You always are."
"I know. Now you're here, everything will be better. I made a wish, you know? When I put the last piece of your puzzle together."
"Wish?"
"Yeah, I wished for some friends. Real ones, not 'I'll be your friend if you do my homework and if you ever dare to forget I'll use you as a punching bag' type friends. Real ones that actually care about me, about how I feel. Nice friends."
"Nice friends? Elaborate."
"Well…I've had friends before, but they weren't exactly 'nice'. They would always laugh at me behind my back, or play jokes on me and stuff."
"For what purpose?"
"I don't know. Their amusement?"
"…"
"Mou hitoru no boku? Are you alright?"
"…yes aibou. Go to sleep. I promise you that no one will ever harm you again."
"Thanks. No one has ever been this nice to me before."
"Hn."
Blood red eyes darkened as the innocent light slept peacefully, just happy to finally have someone to talk to. His pale face showing a bright smile that was previously unknown.
The crimson eyes that tenderly watched his aibou sleep were the same that brought terror to the hearts of any of his enemies; never again would anyone harm his hikari…
…and live to tell about it.
-Owari-
Please review.
