Chapter 1

A Stranger in the Mist

Yugi sat in the national park weeping under the old willow tree that was centred in the middle. His eyes were red and his face held streams of flowing tears, he huddled his knees to his chest trying to make him seem small to the average eye. The pain in Yugi's heart was unbearable, the pain most people know as betrayal. The betrayal of his spouse to be friends when they told him he was weak and useless. But the most unbearable pain was the glare of disgust Yami had given him. That face was still imprinted into the poor boys mind and soul.

Yugi looked up to the sky seeing it no longer blue but black. He turned his wrist to see it was 10:30 at night according to his watch. He wanted to go home, to cry into his grandfather's embrace but he knew Yami would be there. He couldn't face his darker side and it only made it worst that Yami had taken residence in his home. He didn't want to see the face full of disgust and rage, he didn't want to gaze in those crimson eyes to see nothing but hate. No he didn't want to feel lower then he already was. No he wouldn't go home, not now not ever. He would rather die in the gutters with his blood spraying the ground around him then face Yami.

"You shouldn't be out here all alone boy, didn't people tell you creatures come out to play in the dark" a voice sneered as Yugi made it to his feet. He looked around but all he could see was darkness and the city lights in the distance

"Come out and show yourself coward" Yugi said trying to sound intimidating but came out as a whimper instead.

"Fine" he heard a reply in the wind before being pushed back into the willow tree and a dark figure looming over him. Yugi tried to see the man's face but couldn't for it was enclosed in shadows, all he could see was his crimson eyes and pearly white fangs that glistened in the moonlight.

The man gripped Yugi's arms with unnatural strength shoving him harder into the willow tree exposing Yugi's pale neck to the hungry predator.

"You're not screaming begging for mercy, WHY AREN'T YOU SCREAMING!" the man hissed his voice dripping with rage. Why wasn't the boy screaming, they all screamed at him begging him to let them go only to be denied and ripped apart by the heartless creature. So why wasn't this boy doing the same?

"Because I simply do not care" Yugi said his warm eyes boring into the man's, showing him he would not fight. Which only caused more rage to build up inside the predator.

"Why don't you fight me, scream for me to let you go. Begging me to spear your life unless" the man said his face show one of horror as his eyes widened to saucers "You welcome death warmly with open arms"

"That I do, so please just get it over and done with" Yugi said resting his head back against the ruff bark of the willow tree and closed his eyes waiting for the vampire to finally end his road of misery.

But the bite never came

Yugi opened his eyes to see the man hadn't moved an inch, like he was studying the boy before him instead of doing his original plain.

"Why aren't you ripping me to shreds and feasting on my blood" the Yugi cried confused by the man's antics. The man laughed being amused by the boy that was so thriving for death.

"I have a better idea but first what is your name"

"Yugi" he replied in a whisper that seemed to get carried by the wind.

"Well Yugi welcome to immortality"

Then Yugi was filled with the most unbearable pain he had ever felt in his life, making his legs weak and his body turn numb. He felt a cold wet substance trickle down his neck knowing it was blood, his blood and essence flowing away turning into something dark and evil. More evil then the souls and spirits that were trapped in the shadow realm, more evil then the shadow realm itself.

Before and icy feeling went through his body turning his world black.
