Prologue: Yuri on Arena
A/N: Naming it like this partially because I have no idea what else to name this random AU idea... this is just a tryout ahaha. I have the urge to make this into a angst story if I continued-/shot
Disclaimer: Only the storyline belongs to me, everything else belongs to their respective owners.
Ever since the day where he first appeared, I had been mesmerized by him.
The long silver hair glistening in the light, highlighted by the long, argent flashes formed by the smooth movements of his sword...
The blazing sun, which should have made both swordsmen look dehydrated and exhausted, seemed to affect everyone in the stadium but the young and agile teenager. His perspiration sparkled in the sun, the wide grin broadening on his face with every step and slash, his pink cheeks seemingly filled with ecstasy...
"TH... THIS IS UNEXPECTED! It's the first time a... a rookie, has won this famous competition, in his debut year! His name will surely be remembered for years to come!"
As a child, I remember desperately hanging over the railings, my body half out, and my new glasses whose frames were too big for my face almost falling out, just from trying to get a better look of his captivating figure.
"This year's! Gladiator Showdown! Belongs to...!"
The young teenager raised his hand with a gusto, grinning freshly in the direction of the young me, still stranded in mid-air on the railings.
"Viktor Nikiforov...!" I breathed out, stationary with glimmering eyes, among the wild cheers and chants of the crowd.
