Can the young, shy Felicity learn to Love the monster or will she completly push him away? Only time will tell and Death has lots of that.
Prologue
Darkrai
I blinked up towards the starry night sky in silence. The sound of cricketots chirping filled the air as if mourning what was to come. Sad sound as it seemed, but it was music to my ears. Ah! The sad sound of the music of the night! Even lovelier than Dream's voice while she sings my favorite operas, last birthday by the way.
I placed my scythe onto my left hit and sniffed disdainfully. The putrid air of the city flowed into my nostrils causing me to sneeze quite loudly. I hated nights like these, the air always smelt worse. It was like a mix of Meowth urine and rotten garbage, disgusting as hell it's self. Thank Arceus that I'll be out of here soon enough.
I paused at the corner of Heart lane and Dark Parkway, looking at my directions again frowning. "Was I suppose to turn left on Heart Lane or right?" I muttered trying to make sense of Mew's scribble like hand writing. Deciding on right, I messily folded up the paper and stuffed it back into my pocket of my robe. I turned right and quickly headed down the street muttering nonsense to myself.
My newest assignment was to reap the soul of a "still-born" infant. As joyful as it sounds it was part of my good work. I enjoyed it somewhat despite that I could have be a creature of nightmares, but Darkrai had already drawn that name out of the job hat Arceus calls fate. Bah! A load of vulpix dung that is, damn Fate and her twin sister Desire. Both are the two stupidest Uxie and Mesprite I have ever met. Even their brother Will had better sense than the lot!
I continued my way down the street and turned left on Jackson Way coming close to 357 Hillside lane.
I gave another deep sigh and adjusted my cloke so that my horrid face was hidden completely under it. I swear after this I'll give Arceus a good talking to. He knows how much I hate doing these types of jobs. But he still does it just to tick me off, the stupid bugger.
I took off down the street towards a large Victorian style mansion guarded by Iron Luxios. I paused at the steel gate and looked at the small front yard silently taking it in. In front of one of the windows was a bed of Tansies and on the other window was a bed of leafeon tail bushes. I also saw in the far back was a small field that held Rapidashes and Miltanks. They grazed lazily about not noticing that death lurks just outside their peaceful home.
Poor suckers.
I floated over the gate with a sigh and headed towards a lit window where a bunch of screams could be heard quite clearly. The sound of a woman in labor echoed through my ears causing me to shiver in delight. Being of the darkrai species I am one of many who somewhat enjoy screams of victims, even if it isn't by my own hand.
I peered into the window grinning, unseen by the normal eye. A beautiful young lady with deep blue eyes and strawberry-blonde hair that glittered prettily under the electric lights was laboring to push a child out of her womb. A nursemaid and midwife sat at her other end watch her body push the young one out of her other end. I silently sneaked in without being noticed so far and floated up behind the nursemaid and Midwife.
With a single swipe of my deadly hand I knocked the two out cold leaving me and the laboring misses alone.
I looked at her in the eyes as she stared back at me horrified. I blinked at her confused wondering why she was so scared. She shouldn't see me right now! Jeez... Maybe it was just that she saw that the two women were knocked out by an unseen force.
"Wh-Who are you?" She asked scared between laboring gasps of pain. 'oops' I tilted my head in wonder thinking how she could have seen me. I was invisible to mortals... Unless she had some sort of legendary father and he made her.
I snorted in disgust at this at then looked at her sharply in the eyes. "I am Death, your child is no longer valid in this world." I hissed giving into my "Evil" self type of role in order to scare her. She shivered what seemed to be fright and stammered, "Y-You ca- Aggg!" She grabbed the red linen bed sheets as cold sweat broke over her face. She was still trying to push the soon-to-be dead child out.
Ha! Pathetic!
"Here let me help." I growled darkly as I stuck my whole hand into her contracting womb causing a blood curdling scream to erupt from her fragile throat. I chuckled darkly as I grabbed the child's head and began to pull it out slowly. The woman's eyes were blood-shot and wild from the pain...
It pleased me quite a bit.
I soon yanked the child out of her and the small creature let out an ear splitting cry. I looked down at the small creature in my hand and froze up for some strange reason. Despite the blood and gunk that cover the young creature, I saw those beautiful sky blue eyes that were wide in shock and pain. I sucked in a painful breath as she captured me in those deep blue pools. She had pretty snow white hair, though barely any of it. With rosy red cheeks that were flushed from the pain and light that blinded her.
I quickly let go of her head and cradled her in my arms quietly looking at her. I felt strange, like she had put a spell over my body. All blood lust drained from my cruel mind when she reached up and actually touched above my quickly beating heart. I sucked in another breath and continued to stare down at the beautiful creature. There was no way I could kill this!
Staring down a this child stirred something, something I haven't felt in all of my years of living. It was a warm sappy feeling that spread warmth throughout my body, melting my blackened heart. I have never felt this warm in my life... What was this sudden feeling?
I snapped out of my strange thoughts as I heard the woman cry out. "Leave her alone! Leave my little Angel alone!" She begged as she tried out reach out for her child. I looked at her glaring before softly looking down at the bloody child in my arms. I couldn't bring myself to take her life, it was strange...
The woman cried out again for me to spare the infant causing a heavy sigh to escape my lips. "I shall let her live..." I finally said after a few more moments of staring at the young child. "But I have two things that must be full filled..." I looked to the new mother and handed her the child... Reluctantly. I wracked my brain for the right words about what was I going to tell her.
'Sixteen would be the perfect age for her to become my wife!' I thought as a bit ago I decided on her becoming my life's mate. A perfect fit, Death and his bride, the two who shall strike fear in the hearts of mortal! A wonderful! Wonderful thought!
One, on her sixteenth birthday I shall come for her and take her as my bride... I don't want to be force to take her, okay?" I sniffed wracking my brain for more of an explanation, but none came. The woman looked at me with a shocked look and held her child close to her breast. I glared at her darkly and growled, "Okay?" The woman looked at her child and her frightened eyes faded to a soft light. "She is all I have left of him..." She muttered unconsciously, probably thinking out loud. "...Okay." She said after pausing to look at me. I smiled at her and then began thinking of a name….
"Two, Name her Felicity, for she shall be the happiness that fills the void in my life." I declared as the same warm feeling creeped over my limbs, making me smile sappily. As disgusting as it is, I really wanted to get that out. This new feeling is starting to make me a bit light headed, like as if I was drunk or something.
Yet again the woman nodded and I waved my hand in dismissal. "I shall be back in Sixteen years to retrive my bride, until then... Adieu..." I turned and floated out of the window just in time as the two other women woke up from their fainting.
I flew off into the night looking back silently at the home with a smile on my face. "Death's Bride..." I said with a click of my forked tongue as I headed to the Hall of Origin. "Death's Bride... Has a nice ring to it." I said absent mindedly, not noticing the bright light that met up beside me.
"HEEEEYYYYYYY DEATH!" A high-pitched voice rang annoyingly inside my head causing me to reel a bit. I dipped a bit out of the sky and stopped with a hiss as I shook my head side to side in annoyance. "Screw off you annoying piss-ant." I growled looking at my nemeses, my feared other half, my annoying little brother, Mew. Mew merely covered his mouth in a high-pitched giggle and cooed, "Ohhhh! Does the wittle bitty Darkwai mad at little old mes?" He floated around me in a mocking way and then landed onto of my head.
I growled darkly towards him and shook my head causing the stupid pink cat to fly off. "I had a long night mew, now screw off!" I roared at him, all the happiness inside of my gone in an instant. I charged up a shadow ball at shot it at my brother, but he merely floated up out of the way.
"Awww... I'll see you then!" With that he flew off chuckling at the little trick he did. I reached behind my back and pulled off a sign that said "I like licking balls" and roared at him. "I SWEAR TO ARCEUS THAT I'LL FUCKING RIP YOUR PELT OFF AND USE IT AS A BATHROOM RUG!" I flew up to Mount. Cornet and headed up to the castle in the sky, swearing the whole way there.
As soon as I got in through the crystal doors I was smacked across the head with a frying pan. I fell to the ground in a daze as Torchics flew around me chirping a funny little tune. "DEATH YOU FUCKING IDIOT! YOU ATE MY EGGS!" I heard as the shape of Desire came into view, wearing an apron by the way. I chuckled at her darkly and took off my hood showing her my glittering eyes. "Hey I was hungry and Death gets what he wants."
She snarled at me and raised the frying pan again poised to strike me down but I was saved by the crappy laws of psychics. I melted into the ground and darted off to my bed room. I got out of the ground and locked to door calling out. "See ya later you bugging Shelia!" I heard a roar in response and chuckled again.
I plopped down onto my bed, which had nice black silk sheets and blankets, and turned onto the T.V. smirking. Teenage Weremon was on and at one of the bloodiest parts, the part where the weretails (A werepokemon in the form of a ninetails) was ripping the face off a snudy cheerleader. I leaned back into my bed letting out my stilt like legs, resting comfortably. Life could never get better than this.
In sixteen years I'll have a wife to enjoy this movie with me, ah a mere sixteen years.
Sixteen years and done.
