What is up guys? I know I have not finished Guardians yet, but this story is too damn tempting to leave in a notebook, besides, some of you have been waiting so patiently for this, and I am tired of making you all suffer. I would like to personally thank kunoichi2006 and seiferalmasy120806 with inspiring me for this fic, and giving me plenty of moral support for it. I know you guys will love it. With that said, I give you chapter one of Tainted Heart.

Summary: Yami and Yugi have had an argument, leaving Yami with a broken soul, what happens when a vampire turns him and forces him into an abusive relationship? Will Yami survive the horrors that he will be forced to endure? Or will he accept what he has become, and use his new power to its greatest extent?

Warnings: Yaoi in later chapters, blood, language and torture

Tainted Heart

Chapter 1: Yami's Dedication

---Yami's POV---

These days all I do is reflect on the past. All that has happened and all that has changed me. Even now, I have seen where my path has taken me, and is still leading me. The future is not a prime concern of mine, for I have accepted what I have become.

All I wanted was to have a normal life, grow up with a loving family, find true love, and face each day with the belief that it would not disappear overnight, that however, was too much to ask for...I learned that the hard way.

Everything in my past is as clear as the present, sometimes I wonder if that is something I should be thankful for. To this day, I still wonder what would have happened if I hadn't allowed myself to be taken into darkness, but at the time, I didn't have much choice.

But the past is over and done with, and there is no one that can change that, not even me.

This is my story, I accept it now, but this was after all the despair and rage I suffered, and how it nearly destroyed me. Many people suffered alongside me, some willing, more not so.

Friend...

That word used to make me think, What is a friend? Was it someone you could use to get ahead in life? Or was it merely a figment of your imagination telling you in times of despair that everything would be alright, and then stab you in the back when you were not expecting it?

I know what it means now, it just took what felt like an eternity to realize it...

I tell this in dedication to all those who did not abandon me when they found out what I had become.

Alright guys, this is the opening, let me know what you think, and thanks for the title kunoichi2006!
