The girl drummed her fingers against the leather of the arm of her sofa, thinking furiously. She was a very beautiful girl, petite with pale skin and dark purple hair in an amusingly whimsical cut. Her eyes were a lovely jade, with heavy eyeliner to bring out the color. Her current clothing was a pure white gown that revealed a nice amount of cleavage and puddled over her legs in a pool of frilly lace.

Right now she was thinking about her brother. It was remarkable, really. They had both achieved immortality… although through completely different means. She owed him a great deal though. She doubted she would have survived this long if he hadn't been catering to her needs for centuries. She touched the white bone medallion at her throat, and looked at the matching ones on her wrists. She was a vampire, but those lovely medallions let her take sustenance from ley lines. Pure magic was her drug now, and that kind of magic was everywhere. And with magic, she could walk in daylight and felt no urge to hunt. Immortality with all the benefits and none of the drawbacks. It was truly glorious.

And she owed it all to her brother, Ya Tashra. It was almost a shame that he'd taken such a different path to immortality, because he was definitely experiencing drawbacks. But then, if he'd done it her way he'd never have been able to master the magic required to make her immortality so painless. She really owed him something. He'd been so good to her. But what could she do to lesson his pain that wouldn't make him want to kill her?

Although right now he wanted to kill everything. She smirked as she thought about it, but only for a moment. Ya Tashra was irritated. Insufferable. Absolutely unbearable to be around… and he knew it, which was the only saving grace. He was drinking heavily to help cope, but his apprentices were having a very rough time. Fortunately, his senior apprentices were able to take care of most teaching. Unfortunately, this had just started… and it was going to be going on for a year if nothing was done.

"Something needs to be done." She idly tapped one of her fangs, thinking. But what? She knew what Ya Tashra needed, and he knew what he needed… but he was refusing to get it. She knew why, but it made her want to bean him. How could a brother of hers be so ridiculously repressed? "Hrmp!" She licked her fangs, then sighed. "I suppose maybe I'll just have to take the chance of him killing me." He probably wouldn't, and even if he did, he'd regret it and bring her back to live in a year or two. Vampires were quite hard to kill permanently.

Picking up a scrying crystal, she began putting her own magic to use, searching the multiverse for exactly what she needed. Part of her power was innate but a very large portion of it was borrowed from her brother. Which was fine. She could use his power to take anything she wanted, and leave enough money to cover the purchase. It was a fine way of shopping when she didn't really want to leave the tower… or when she wanted to shop outside the Twisted World without the fuss. It would be perfect for what she was doing now. If Ya Tashra caught wind of it before it was a done deal, he'd pull her fangs out.

She started with the slave pens on the Twisted World. It was a vile business, slavery, but all too many worlds that the Twisted World connected to allowed it. Ya Tashra wasn't a bad man at all, but the only rules he enforced in the Twisted World involved damage to the world itself. So if the people living there wanted slavery… that was how it was. And a slave, or rather slaves, would do nicely for her plans. If she could only find the right ones.

That was very hard going. She blew a bit of hair out of her face, frustrated. She needed something so particular! Maybe… maybe it was time for oracular divination. She cast the spell, and was surprised when a scene immediately popped up in her glass.

"…?" Peering in the glass, she blinked as she saw a malnourished, spiky haired little boy being forced to ride a dark skinned, pale haired man. The boy was crying but his body was enjoying it, from the condition of his penis. And in the corner of the room, there were two other children. An auburn haired girl and a silver haired boy, very young but old enough for the use the dark skinned man was putting them to. They were both stark naked and she could see cruel marks on their skins. Leaning back on her couch, she settled in to watch the entertainment, a hand straying between her own thighs. She was a vampire, after all. She had no shame… and the way the boy was squirming and begging all kinds of things was just so beautiful. It made her wish he was in her room right now. She quickly fingered herself, hoping to reach orgasm before the man finished with the boy. She just barely managed it, groaning in pleasure as the boy wept and released his seed across the man's stomach. He had lovely blue eyes, she noticed… even lovelier when they were hazed with held back tears. He would be perfect. Licking her lips, she turned her attention to the silver haired boy. He was certainly good looking enough, although she hadn't seen him in action. The girl she didn't care about. She could include her, but only to keep the two boys in line.

There was no need to be hasty though. She could watch them for some time, make sure they were right for what she wanted.

A week later.

The beautiful vampire licked her lips. She'd been watching the man and his toys for the entire week and had learned quite a bit about them. The man, as it turned out, was Ansem… and the boys were Sora and Riku. The girl was named Kairi. Apparently, this was a shadow world where Sora and Riku had failed miserably to stop him and had been turned into his sexual pets. The same for Kairi. The entire place was falling apart into darkness, but she couldn't care less about that. She knew for a fact that Sora and Riku had won on many other worlds, so it was probably just a karmic thing. If they won in most places, there had to be at least one place they lost.

She had decided they were indeed perfect. She would steal Ansem's toys, and if he didn't like it, he could come to the tower and try to get them back. She grinned evilly at the thought. He thought he was so powerful, this Heartless. But he didn't understand the limits of his power, since he'd never tried to leave his shadow world. But lesser Heartless couldn't come to the Twisted World, and unless he had resources she couldn't see, his power would be vastly diminished by entering Ya Tashra's sphere. He would be cut off from the Kingdom Hearts in his universe, the things he was drawing power from. And even if that weren't the case, she'd seen her brother destroy an elder god single handedly. Destroying an uppity Heartless would probably be a pleasure to him right now. Setting her crystal down on the table, she rose to her feet in a swirl of silk. Her current dress was a purple that matched her hair, beaded with seed pearls on the bodice. It made her look like an innocent child, which was perfect for a first meeting.

Tapping her wrists together, she quickly got everything ready. She set the table with four places… she could eat now, thanks to her brother's magic… and called in the food, setting it on magical stones that would keep it warm and fresh. She licked her lips… it was her favorite meal, chicken fried steak with gravy, mashed potatoes and butter corn, with apple pie for dessert. Her brother thought it was dreadfully prosaic for a vampire to prefer home cooking, but she'd never though that was a good enough reason to change her tastes. Given the wretched stuff Ansem had been feeding the children, they'd no doubt appreciate this. She'd thought about getting them new clothes as well… the grey uniforms they were wearing were terribly drab and not very durable besides… but decided to leave that to her brother. Having them looking pathetic and in need wouldn't hurt for the first meeting. She needed to ignite some of his protective instincts, or he'd kick them all to the curb so fast their heads would be spinning. And that just wouldn't do at all.

Picking up her crystal, she waited until the perfect moment… when all three of the little sex toys were wandering around, none of them in Ansem's presence. Smirking, she breathed out the spell, unleashing the magic.

Instantly, three children were dumped to the ground in front of her. Smiling prettily, she watched as the girl and the brunette boy lay dazed. The silver hair was in the best shape… he flipped himself onto his back and looked at her, his aquamarine eyes wide.

"Who… what…?" Riku was stunned by the abrupt change in his surroundings. One moment he'd been in Ansem's castle, a nightmare of steel and Heartless… and suddenly, he was in a room that was full of feminine warmth. The thick, plush carpet he was lying on was nearly as comfortable as the bed Ansem had given him, and it was done in shades of gold, green and purple. Lamps of gold filigree illuminated the room, showing creamy walls and elegant paintings. Sora and Kairi both pushed themselves up, and gaped as a beautiful woman stepped in front of them. She had lovely purple hair and huge, jade green eyes… and the palest skin they had ever seen. It was almost white.

"Hello there, sweeties. I'm Ya Seshti, and I have a proposition for you." She smiled ravishingly, tiny fangs peeking from under her lip. "But before we go into that, I do believe you must be hungry. Please, will you join me for supper?" She gestured to the table, and three sets of eyes followed her gesture. Sora's stomach growled, not to her surprise… he was the one eating the least of the three, and it showed in his body.

"Wait, what is going on here?" Riku was trying to pull himself together. Was this all some kind of trick of Ansem's, to see how his slaves would react? That would be so like him. But the woman smiled at them again.

"I've stolen you, kitten. Ansem's going to have quite the fit I expect, but he can just bark for it… if we come to an agreement, at least." She lowered her eyelashes for a moment, then shrugged prettily. "But we can talk while we eat. Don't want the food to get cold… it's my favorite, and better than the slop that creature was feeding you." Sora swallowed, but moved over to the table. The food was strange… he'd never seen anything quite like it before… but it smelled so good. Kairi hesitated but followed, and finally Riku took a spot at the table as well. "Excellent!" She took a seat across from Sora, with Riku on her right and Kairi on her left, and smiled as she poured them some wine. "Please, call me Seshti." She frowned faintly as she saw they weren't taking the food, just waiting uneasily, then shrugged and quickly served them herself. Probably Ansem liked to dole out what his slaves ate. She hadn't watched the mealtimes but it seemed typical of the man.

For a time, they ate in silence. As soon as he was sure it wasn't a dream and that the food wasn't going to be taken away, Sora ate like he hadn't seen food in weeks. Riku and Kairi weren't quite as ravenous, but they did a good job of finishing their plates. Grinning, Seshti called cut up the pie and served it to them, giving each slice a big dollop of ice cream and a drizzle of caramel. From their expressions, they all thought they had died and gone to heaven. Seshti rather agreed, as she ate her own piece of pie. The crust was perfectly flaky, the apples done to just the right texture with the perfect amount of lemon and spices. It didn't get much better than this.

Sitting back with a sigh, Seshti smiled benevolently at her unwilling audience. Sipping her wine, she began to speak. "You wanted to know why I've brought you here?" Riku nodded shortly, watching her carefully. He didn't trust her an inch, but that was too be expected really. "Well, you see, I'm having quite a problem. It's my brother. He's got a horrible case of the ten year itch."

"Say what?" Sora said, confused… then suddenly hunched his shoulders. "M-Mistress." She stuck her tongue out at him, and Sora blinked.

"Please! Call me Sesthi, Sora. I'm not Ansem and neither is my brother." Sora flinched, then smiled shyly. He desperately wanted to believe that… believe that his torture was over… but he didn't quite dare. "You see, my brother and I are immortals. I'm a vampire, but thanks to his lovely magic I exist on pure magic these days. Which means I can go out in daylight and eat anything I please." She gestured at the table with a content expression, then grimaced. "But my lovely brother took a completely different turn on his track to immortality. It's hard to explain, but he's tied himself directly to the force of entrophy. But what that means for his body is that he's immortal… but he still, ahem, cycles." They all looked confused, and she licked her fangs, trying to think how to explain. "Every ten years or so, he goes into a heat stage. He needs sex, and a whole lot of it. But he's such a stubborn, insufferable bastard that he usually just denies his needs and rides it out with drugs, alcohol and being a complete douche to the rest of us." She sighed, rolling her eyes and ignored the looks the children were exchanging. They clearly didn't like where this was going. "This time he's having a really bad one and I swear, he is completely insupportable. I'm tempted to throw him off the edge of the world and put us out of our collective misery. Alas, that wouldn't kill him anyway so I'm onto plan B… get him some sex, pronto."

"You want us to be his sex toys. Just like we've been doing for Ansem." Riku said, his voice tired. Sora and Kairi both looked down, and Kairi quickly drank her wine. Seshti shook her head with a smile.

"Not exactly. Brother dearest isn't going to want you. He has some problems with sex. You'll have to… seduce him a little." Seshti grinned at the shock in Sora's face as he glanced up. "And it'll be just you and Sora darling who get to do that. Sorry, Kairi, but my brother is completely gay. He takes a female form sometimes, but even then he loves the cock." Kairi blinked at that. "I only included you for completeness, so these two wouldn't be all worried about you." She shrugged, draining her wine and pouring herself another glass. "To be honest, I'm not sure this idea of mine will work. And there's a good chance he'll kill me. If he does, though, don't worry about it… I'm a vampire. He can always put me back together when he cools down. But I think the story of what's happened to you, and how much you need to be safe, will tug on his heartstrings a bit. Maybe enough to get him to put his infernal guard down. So, what do you say?" They didn't have to think about it long. The only choice other than this crazy offer was going back to Ansem… and that was no choice at all.

"We'll try." Riku said, and Sora nodded. They would do anything to stay away from Ansem… anything at all.
