I DON'T OWN KYOU KARA MAOU!
It belongs to its respective owners.
I am not making any money of it.
Warning. A bit OOC. Daikenja X Shinou. This is not an AU but it's a kind of remake of how the soukoku and the blond soldier met. The way I present it may look like a RP game but it's not ( well, I think).
XXXXXXXX
Daikenja could feel his presence coming closer to him and he shuddered. He wanted and needed no one. The vast plain was enough for him as men couldn't reach him, noise was unknown to him.
And however this presence was seeking for him. Had been searching for him for weeks. He didn't want to leave him alone, Daikenja knew it was a man. He could feel it, almost smell it. Every time he came back, to the places he had escaped to avoid his presence, he could feel a manly aura. A virile but tender one was always lingering. Sometimes it was blue. Sometimes yellow. Nothing negative. Something that badly desired to meet him. So badly.
Why?
All he wanted was to be alone. Men had only hurt him, rejected him, feared him, insulted him and cursed him because of his black hair and eyes.
He had always succeeded to avoid all of them since he decided to live alone. But however that one was more stubborn than any other curious creatures. He was truly searching for him. And this time, Daikenja was not even sure to escape and to find a shelter against that intruder.
His breath became too heavy and quickened.
X Shinou X
He could feel him. A savage but tender scent. It was smelling like berries and fresh grass, mixed with slight perspiration. He was no longer far away from him.
And he could sense the soukoku was spying on him.
No one could miss his own blond hair, his bright blue eyes, his pale skin. Shinou felt sure about it: the one he was searching for was around. His steps crushed the almost dried ground, soundly but discreetly enough.
He didn't want to scare the soukoku...Well, if he really was a soukoku. Villagers, even his soldiers had talked about a wild creature with dark hair and dark eyes. A curse according to them. But Shinou didn't care: as long as there was no evidence of the soukoku's badness, he would try to meet him.
His own heart took a quicker beat.
He was there.
So close.
So warm.
Oh!...
Dark eyes were visible behind low branches and green leaves. They widened as blue eyes met him. Shinou witnessed as the branches and leaves suddenly shook, and guessed the " creature " was trying to run away.
" Hey!"
Shinou didn't loose a second, he ran after the strange person, catching a glimpse of dark long hair. Amazing. He was fast, so Shinou forced his steps.
" Hey! You! Wait!"
Useless: the soukoku was scared to death and only wanted to disappear from his view. He was so fast, that the blond almost lost him from his sight. His jaw clenched, his eyebrows furrowed his handsome face.
This time, he won't go far! You won't escape me!
Succeeding to follow him into the eerie forest, Shinou's movements were as smooth as possible. The soukoku went between two big trees, making the blue eyes bulged: " What?! Is he so slim!"No need to waste his time for idiots thoughts, Shinou continued his chase, never giving up.
Soukoku you can be as fast as you want , you will never win against me!
Yes! He was getting closer! So close! He could even hear the dark haired creature panting, gasping, as if lacking air. The forest was haunted by the sound of their steps breaking dead leaves and rotting branches.
Just one step!
Just one and you'll have him!
Shinou jumped forward, his strong arms circling the lean body, the two men falling on the floor, rolling down a small hill. In their fall, Shinou felt a bit odd thinking about how it must hurt the soukoku.
Once " landed" on a flat ground, at the entrance of the forest, Shinou nearly lost the other male who'd stood up and tried to escape. But the blond's grip refused that, pulling almost roughly the slighter body against him. The soukoku tempted to hit him with some punches and kicks, given to hazard. It was so obvious he wasn't a soldier and a trained man. He only acted by instinct.
" Hey! Hey, calm down! Calm down, for God's sake!" Shinou hissed as he forced himself to circle the man in his arms to stop his struggling.
" I don't want to harm you! I swear!"
The double black refused to hear him. He kept struggling to the point his dark blue clothes nearly got ripped off. Shinou noticed that and with a smirk , pronounced:
" Maybe you want me to help you to get you naked, that's it?"
The soukoku's eyes widened as he stopped his fight. At least he understands our language!
Shinou almost loosened his embrace around the other man, who took this chance to escape.
But Shinou surprised him by catching his arm and flattened him on the ground, his body covering the leaner one.
The soukoku, panicking and gasping; spat on Shinou's face, a big amount of saliva staining the pale skin.
Shinou's eyebrows deeply frowned and shut the man's mouth with his left hand:
" Listen to me! I'm not there to hurt you! So you're going to calm down right?!"
Obviously, Soukoku didn't believe him as his eyes only expressed fear and distrust to his words.
My God? Am I that frightening?
The body beneath him was still moving. Poor creature. He absolutely didn't believe him. However he had too!
Tentatively, Shinou leaned to press his lips against the tanner skin, the forehead and then the cheeks.
X Daikenja X
His heart was hammering against his chest, very painfully, as fear overwhelmed him, breathing betrayed him and his body almost paralyzed. Rape!
Was he about to rape him, that filthy blond?
His cry was muffled by the strong hand on his mouth.
Let go of me!
X Shinou X
Never letting himself being too much distracted and disturbed by the moves underneath him, Shinou continued his kisses. One here. One there. On the temples, on the nose, on the eyelids.
I have to calm him down! If I show him that I care for him, he will eventually listen to me.
It seemed it was working. The double black was relaxing. A bit. Just a few kisses in addition. The wild creature was finally calming down.
Shinou looked at his dark eyes, then smirked, as if triumphing:
" If you're wise , I will kiss even your lips"
Not the right thing to say. The soukoku's eyebrows frowned in disgust, making his face almost scaring. Shinou smirked even more, not in the least impressed. Well, maybe a little:
" You have beautiful black eyes..."
Dark eyes shut down. The creature had closed his eyes. First astounded, Shinou blinked:
Okay...So he's very free and independent. He won't go easy on me. To gain his trust is the best to do.
" Alright, you have the right to close your eyes. Anyway, I still have your splendid black hair to admire. Just one thing, soukoku: I'm not bad. I'm not evil. I will never harm you. Never. I want to listen to you as I want you to listen to me! I swear I'm not going to break your teeth or something. Please..."
X Daikenja X
The man had said " Please" . Something no one had never uttered for him.
Maybe...Maybe...he was an exception?... a gentle soul?...
No, even with sweet words, he wouldn't be trapped:
Trust no one. He had to take his freedom back.
Slowing his rapid breath, Daikenja nodded.
Never let yourself be submitted to another will than yours.
You're not his pet, no matter how savage you look.
X Shinou X
Witnessing as the soukoku was capable to show some softness and a bit of obedience, Shinou ended up smiling:
" That's good. I'm taking off my hand; but you won't bite, got it?"
The double black nodded again. Shinou slowly removed his hand away from the mouth, almost trembling. But the creature remained composed and kept his promise.
" Thank you. I want to know your name..."
Silence.
" Please..."
"...Soraito."
Shinou didn't know, well he knew, but there was something wonderful.
" Your voice is so beautiful. You should speak more...Soraito, your name too sounds magical. Tell me...Tell me what you're doing in life."
Soraito refused to reveal more, being silent as a rock. Shinou could feel their hearts beating almost with the same speed.
" Alright, my turn now. My name is Shinou. I'm twenty one. I'm a general and I lead an army. You know the evil Shoushu tries to invade our lands and destroy us. People have elected me as their chief. And I'm intent on protecting them. But I need you. You're said to have powers and knowledge. Someone who said to have been your preceptor told me you have a great sense of organization and a real intelligence. I need you to help me. Believe me..."
X Daikenja X
He frowned. Believe him?
This idiot had just said he was leading an army but was there any good advisor and planner among his men? Was this army the army of stupid baboons?
The double black kept observing him. Almost calmly. The blue eyes were so intense and bright that he couldn't escape them. They were inspiring him...trust?
"He slowly nodded as he gained a genuine smile on the pale face.
X Shinou X
Shinou couldn't believe it! He had succeeded! To convince the savage soukoku! He nearly let a sigh of relief out.
" Alright, I'm freeing you. Just promise me not to try to escape. We really need you." As the double black nodded again- like a meek lamb- which surprised the handsome blond- Shinou leisurely moved up as he stood up. Holding a hand out to Soraito, relief, contentment, and happiness were filling him. The soukoku seemed to accept and believe him. He graciously raised up; looking into the dazzling blue eyes.
" I know where my horse is." Shinou continued, his eyes never leaving the black ones. " We will both ride on it." Astonishment struck him as Soraito-what a bastard- turned round and started to run.
Damn it! My patience has limits!
This time, he wouldn't let him go away. Almost angrily and nervously, Shinou ran after him, caught the black hair, pulled at it and made Soraito fall one the ground and cry. Shinou knelt, holding him by the cheeks, his index and thumb at each side of his face.
" There's something I really dislike. The fact people make empty promises and dare laugh at my face. Too bad for you, this is what you have just done."
At the moment, a carriage appeared some meters away. Shinou looked over his shoulder: this was his men. A cold smile stretched his face.
" See...We're going to bring you to my camp, with this you won't be able to escape and I will no longer be afraid of seeing you trying to."
X Daikenja X
Humiliation filled the soukoku with each second, he couldn't do anything against the strong arms of Shinou. He was glaring at the soldier who kept his eyes on him until the carriage was close to them. Five men, clad in different clothes, were surrounding it, they were riding impressive horses. Shinou, locking his hands around the soukoku's wrist, rose, thus making Soraito follow the same movement. One of the men approached Shinou, glancing with repulsion and fear at the double black and declared:
" We're here as you ordered us, general Shinou. With the carriage."
Soraito watched it with rejection and fear, stepped back but Shinou kept him firmly by his side. He witnessed the blond grinning smugly:
" Really good, thank you. I knew Soraito could be unpredictable. So I knew a carriage could be useful."
The soukoku let himself very reluctantly be brought to the " wooden" four-wheeled machine ( as he mentally called it) and was forced to take a seat within it. Shinou decided for once to join the camp with the car and not on his horse. He sat down in front of the soukoku. The doors were securely closed, rope tied around Soraito's wrists and ankles.
X Shinou X
He couldn't take his eyes off of the double black. He was afraid to see him run away again, and also because...He was beautiful. His black hair and eyes were merely fascinating him. This was the first time he could see them for real.
From now, you are my Daikenja. I won't let you go away.
Shinou thought as his sapphires stared at the onyxes.
