Scarlet Eyes

~!Hunter x Hunter Spoilers!~ - be warned! hehe

Riku (my name instead of Scarlet Eyes ^^;) : This is sort of based on Kurapika's point of view. This could probably be inserted somewhere in his fight with Ubo. All characters are owned by Hunter x Hunter. This MAYBE a disturbance to some and isn't made to be a matter over (as in don't flame me if you think it's dark..) anywayz. Enjoy~ ^^

Life is like the light of a flickering candle in the wind. It may stifle suddenly or last until the very end. Life was designed to be a contest. For some, it is a contest of strength and dignity, and for others, fate and destiny. Even with this, humans must have the strength to believe in themselves, in their power of will. People become stronger by feeding off of their emotions, overcoming one emotion after another. Strength, of all feelings, may be what built the determination of one, but it is also what constructed the failure of another. It was also strength that made humans do unjustifiable things. In order to obtain whatever one desires, one would apply cruelty and violence. They would even slay another for their own purposes, causing pain and suffering to numerous amounts of innocent people.

And now here I stood, staring at my hands stained with the color of blood. "How could you pathetic beings be the ones that had so easily taken away the most important things of my life? I lost them all. My family, friends, hometown. You may have taken everything away and scattered my life but you will not take away the final pair of scarlet eyes."

No matter how much longer time will drift, this ache will not recover. It never will, even beyond the end of time. This memory was engraved into the very depth of my heart. Even after death, this memory shall haunt my spirit. My anger and sorrow shall abide even if time was suspended along with the color of blood on this very hand. Humans are greedy creatures. Their soul intentions of living are to fulfill themselves. But as they attempt to attain their freedom, they will fall and notice that they are chained to the fate that they were born with. No matter how hard one may try to struggle out of this fate, one will still fall back into fate's hands. In reality, liberation cannot be found. However, humans can sense the freedom that they had longed for in the whispers of the wind. I was warned by the wind not to be driven by my hatred and to seal away my cravings for revenge. But no matter the circumstances, I must avenge all that I've lost. From now on, revenge shall be my destiny! The revolution of fate shall begin! These hands will destroy those who will try to stop me as well as those who were responsible for annihilating my happiness. These hands will make them pay for all that they have done.

My pupils diluted from scarlet and gradually changed to a shade of brown. And now here I stood, staring at my hands stained with the color of blood.



Riku: Yada na~? I'm so absolutely in love with Kurapika. I don't wanna sound like another obsessed fan-girl but he's just sooo kakoii! Kurapika forever~!
