Blood Rose
Chapter 1
Once upon a time there was a vampire prince that lived in a beautiful castle. The prince was very handsome, making all the girls and boys fall for him with just a glance. But the prince had a flaw. He only cared about himself. He was unkind to anyone that approached the castle or used people for his own selfish reasons. One day an old woman appeared in the castle. She asked for a place to stay since a storm took place at the time. The prince was already repulsed by the woman's look but asked what will he get if he agreed. The woman opened a chest, revealing a crimson colored rose. The prince frowned and turned the woman away. A while later the old woman came back and asked the prince the same thing. The prince once again turned her down. The old woman warned the prince to not judge by appearance and that true beauty comes from within. But the prince still turned her away. Suddenly, the woman's ugliness faded away revealing a beautiful enchantress. The prince begged for forgiveness but his pleas were ignored. The enchantress stated that his heart was spoiled and threw a curse at him. As punishment, she turned him into a hideous beast and everyone that lived in the castle into an living object. If the prince didn't find true love before he turned twenty one everyone in the castle will remain in their cursed form. The prince, ashamed of his new formed, stay ed always in the castle. The blood rose remained with the prince. The rose will continue to bloom until the prince turns twenty one. If the prince learned to love and received the same feelings back the curse will be lifted and they will be free. If not, he will remain in his beast form forever. All hope was lost for the prince but his staff still waited for a miracle to happen...
4 years later...
A young man walked around the little town he lived in. His beauty was envied by both males and females. His silver hair complemented his beautiful purple eyes that stared at the road in front of him. It was always the same thing everyday. His pale hands held a book. His favorite book. The friendly villagers greeted him everywhere. But an not so friendly villager was waiting for him at one corner.
"Hello Zero. What a surprise to see you here" a deep voice said.
Zero turned to where the voice came and found the person he least wanted to see.
"Hi Rido" Zero told him in the most polite tone he could think of, even thought he was just annoyed. Suddenly he snapped the book out of Zero's hands and threw it to the trash.
"A beautiful man like you should be reading. It will keep you distracted from me" Rido said with a big grin on his face.
"You think about yourself too much" Zero took the book again. "Besides, I can do whatever I want with my free time and I will choose reading a million times before you so if you excuse me I have to go with my father now"
"You mean that crazy old man that can't even fix his toaster? Who cares about him?" Rido's 'friend' Vector teased.
"Yes. Who cares" Rido repeated the last part. The both started laughing, which made Zero even more annoyed.
"Do not EVER make fun of my father. He is a genious" Zero shot at them.
"I can do whatever I want dear Zero" Rido told Zero.
"Whatever. I don't have time for this" Zero said and leave the two laughing men behind.
Once he arrived to his house he heard a loud crash. Zero gasped. What is one of his dad's inventions fell on him? He quickly entered the basement to find his dad laying on the ground.
"Are you ok dad?" Zero asked in a concerned tone as he helped his father get up.
"Yes. I'm fine Zero" he removed the dirt from his clothes. "That stupid machine won't be ready before the fair" He pointed at a machine that seemed to be broken. Some pieces were on the floor.
'So that's what crashed' Zero thought to himself.
"Come on dad. You can fix it. You are Taki Kiryu. I bet you can finish it" Zero tried to cheer his dad up.
"Son, it's not as easy as it looks like. It's easy to just give up"
"Fine. But don't go whining all day after knowing that you lost your only chance to become a world known scientist" Zero slowly turned to leave.
'5, 4, 3, 2 and 1...' Zero counted on his head.
"You are right. I will make this stupid thing work" Taki said and began picking up some things. He started fixing the machine, putting on some odd things but it seemed to be working fine so Zero said nothing.
After some time the machine was finally done. To any normal people who watch it they would think Taki is insane for building something like that but as some people say: 'Looks don't matter'.
"Are you going to try it?" Zero eagerly asked his father. He wanted to see what that thing could do.
"Here it goes" Taki pushed one button and the machine turned on. The machine began chopping some wood.
"Nice" Zero told his dad. A big grin crossed his father's face.
"I have to pack this up for the fair. There is some stew at the kitchen if you want to eat" Taki said before starting to get the machine into a carriage.
Zero left the basement and went inside the house. He put his book in a shelf and sat on the table to eat his stew. When he finished he heard someone shouting from outside of his house.
"Zero! I will be heading to the fair now! I'll be back in a week! Will you be ok!" Taki yelled.
"Sure dad! Have a nice trip!" Zero yelled back and picked up his book.
Zero stayed reading that book almost all day. He was already in the middle and he was eager to read more. Even thought he had already read it he just loved that story. The love story between a princess and a beast. The story simply seemed to call for Zero. But Zero was interrupted by a knock on the door.
He calmly placed the book on the coffee table and went to answer the door. He opened to find Rido. Zero let out a frustrated sigh at the sight.
'What now?' Zero thought
"What do you want Rido?" Zero asked but he was ignored.
Rido let himself into the house and looked around it for a minute.
"Nice place you have here" Rido finally said.
"Thanks" was Zero's only reply.
"I'm going straight to the point" Rido took Zero's slender hand. "Zero, will you marry me?"
Zero's eyes widened. How can Rido ask him that question all of the sudden.
"Is this some kind of joke?" Zero asked, backing away from Rido.
"I'm serious" Rido said while following Zero wherever he went.
Zero backed until he reached the door.
"No"
"Do you know how many people want to be in your place? Just say yes and you will be my beautiful wife" Rido kept insisting.
"I want to point out some things. One, I'm not a woman so don't go around calling me your wife. Two, I know that the whole town wants to marry you and honestly I feel sorry for those people. And three," he threw Rido out of his house, who landed on mud "I will never love you"
With that said Zero closed the door and returned to his book.
With Taki
Taki rode his horse, Eclipse, around the road. He was completely lost. He had to choose between two roads. A beautiful but long path that was filled with birds and flowers. The other one was a short but awful road filled with dead plants and you could hear wolves howl coming from there. But Taki only wanted to get there as fast as he could so...
"Come on Eclipse. Let's take a shortcut" and the horse obeyed his master. Little did they know that that decision will change their lives forever.
Tell me what do you thing. Is there anything I need to improve? Please review and no flames.
