Comments: Sadly, I do not own Hikaru no Go. Wish I did, but I don't. Bah. Um… yeah xD; One random little anime placement thing in there! 8D Isn't that nifty?

Obsession

Prologue

He's just so… perfect… popular. He can't help it. He was practically born that way. He was born into a special family. Damn him. He's good at practically everything. Sports – most of them anyway, games – all kinds of them, especially school. He doesn't seem like it, but he's like… the captain of every single damn sport at school. The teachers think he's some sort of fucking prodigy or something. And it drives me up the fucking Goddamned wall.

But… he can't help it.

Fuck that, I don't care. People practically lick the damned floor clean with their tongues, just so it won't soil his fucking, precious feet! Damnit he makes me so angry! But it's not necessarily that he's loved and adored by all, it's not necessarily that he's good at everything, it's just that he's always one upped me since I was a kid. He's always been one point better than me. Always!

And…even then, it's not necessarily all of that. It's really and truly one thing. ne single, solitary thing when it comes down to it. One thing. One fucking thing…

A game.

My life. I've made it my life. It's the one thing that I have. The one thing that I need. It's practically consumed my whole life. My existence. I don't need anyone or anything. Geezuz, I feel like that obsessed guy from Death Note or whatever. I don't care. I -will- beat him. I will win. I will win even if it kills me. No, it'll kill him. He couldn't stand to lose. I'll beat Touya Akira at Go. I will beat him, even if I have to cheat to do it.
