The Nightmare of Forever
Hey everyone! For all of those of you who read my first story, Moon Light's Call, I want to say welcome back. I actually thought of this story after a really creepy dream that I had. Basically this story is centered on Yuki who somehow finds a door to an alternate reality (any of you see the Simpson's Tree House of Terror where Homer wanders through a portal and becomes 3-D/laughs/ I love that one!) Anyways, once there, Yuki finds the people of that reality to be somewhat different. /wink wink/ Catch my drift? Well, even if you don't, you will sooner or later.

"Yuki! I'm home!" Yuki sighed, knowing what was coming next, and he wasn't disappointed. A ball of pink hurled across the room to him and threw itself into his arms.
"Baka, can't you see I'm working?" Despite his annoyed tone, Yuki wrapped an arm around Shuichi and pulled him into a swift kiss. Shuichi, seizing the moment, closed his eyes and slipped his tongue into Yuki's mouth. Yuki smirked and withdrew from the kiss before it got any further. He had a meeting tonight and didn't want to be tired for it.
"Yuki…!" Shuichi tried to get Yuki back into the moment by running his tongue slowly down Yuki's neck. Usually, this would have made Shuichi be on the floor on his back in about .5 seconds, but like he knew, he had a meeting to go to later on. Knowing this, Yuki unceremoniously dumped Shuichi onto the floor and turned back to his computer.
"Not now baka, now go away, I have a book to finish, a meeting to attend, and I'm getting a migraine.
"But Yuki…!" Throwing a dictionary at Shuichi and hearing the resulting squeal and thud, he sighed and rubbed his temple. This was getting to be a very long day. Hearing the slam of a door, Yuki flinched and turned back to his computer. Defiantly a very long day.
Looking at the computer, he saw that he had one sentence typed. He'd been staring at this for about an hour now. Sighing, he turned off the computer and left the study, heading down the wooden hallway to the kitchen. Walking through the dining room Yuki saw that Shuichi was playing Resident Evil: Apocalypse again. He'd just bought that last week and had insisted that Yuki play with him for almost three hours until Yuki threatened to return the game. Shaking his head, he went into the kitchen and grabbed a beer. Heading back to the dining room he heard the phone ring and picked it up.
"Hello?"
"Hey Yuki, is Shuichi around? This is Hiro"
"Yeah, the baka's currently rotting his brain out but I'm sure that he'll come to the phone." Yuki handed the phone over to Shuichi who actually, surprise, paused the game and started jabbering away on the phone.
"Hey Hiro, what's up? – What? You got to be kidding me! – Aw man, but just last ni- what? Really? – Okay, I'll be down there soon." Shuichi sighed and hung up the phone.
"What was that about?"
Shuichi sighed, not making eye contact with Yuki "Well, Sakano's not really happy with the way our song's going right now and says we need to come in right now. Hiro also mentioned something about K coming to get me to hurry up with a rocket launcher but I'm not really sure."
"WHAT! But you worked late last night!" Yuki was feeling very pissed off at that moment.
"I know, but there's not much I can do about it!" Shuichi's eyes were starting to tear up. 'Oh fuck no, he's not about to cry is he?' Seeing a tear fall down Shuichi's face Yuki went into red alert 'NO! This cannot be happening!' On the outside though, Yuki's face was as stony as ever.
"Whatever baka, make sure you lock up when you get back cause I'll be in bed." With that, Yuki left the room, even though his mind was screaming for him to head back.
"Yuki!" Yuki slammed the door to the office shut and was greeted by the thump of a large body hitting it at strong force. The door actually caved in. Hearing a soft sob then the slam of the front door, Yuki knew he was gone. Letting his face soften some, Yuki sighed. 'Oh well, nothing I can do now.' Leaning back in his chair, Yuki closed his eyes, and somehow, miraculously, fell asleep.
Waking up who knows how many hours later, Yuki saw that it was pitch black out. Walking over to the wall switch, he flicked on the switch then frowned. The lights weren't coming on. Flicking the switch several more times, he got the same result. 'Damn, just another thing to worry about. Now I'll have to get dressed in the dark.' Slowly walking forward with his hands out in front of him, Yuki slowly stumbled through the pitch-black house.
"Fuck!" Yuki stumbled over something and fell towards what looked like a rapidly approaching wall. Except, for some reason, he never felt it. Instead, he stumbled through the wall into another hallway, exactly like the one he just left. 'Um…okay…' Looking behind him, he saw a very solid looking wall. Putting his hand to it and shoving, he was somewhat dismayed when it turned out to be just that. A solid wall. Walking down the hallway, still with his hands in front of him since the lights were still out, Yuki came into what would have been his living room, and it still was, sort of. It looked about the same, except there were a few additions. On the floor, there was what on closer inspection was a taser, and hanging up around the walls were some Bad Luck posters (which Yuki'd never left Shuichi hang up before) except the group looked…different. They were all wearing black for one, and Shuichi's hair, though still pink, was spiked out. Hiro now had pure black hair, and was playing a guitar with a skull on it. And Suguru…well…he wasn't wearing a shirt and he had several large tattoos on him that you could see quite well, including one just below the eye (like in Naruto with Gaara). All in all, they were not really what Yuki expected.
Whoa, that took longer than I thought it would. Now let me explain a few things about alternate realities. Everything there happens at exactly the same time here, but maybe a little different. So, I just wanted to let you know that just as Yuki stumbled into the alternate universe, that alternate universe's Yuki traveled into ours. A little confusing, I know, but it'll make a good story in later chapters. So, please R and R cause I'm not sure how this one is. But, new chappie coming out soon!
