Pain

Dreaded pain

Beloved pain

Knowing pain

Feeling pain

Pain makes you human

Pain makes you remember

Remember why it hurts

Alive

Burning alive

Burning within

Burning without

Burning alone

Set on fire for the world to see

Set on fire to kindle a light

To keep the darkness away

Fear

Drowned in fear

Frozen in fear

Blinded by fear

Fearful without fear

Afraid of what lies beyond the door

Afraid to hear the truth

Petrified of knowing

Hope

Hope is eternal

Hope is desolate

Hope abandoned

Hope forgotten

Praying for a future

Praying for the past

Believing this will all end soon

Alone

Terribly alone

Always alone

Bound to be alone

Remembered alone

Loneliness consumes

Loneliness builds the walls

Walls that can come crashing down

I once thought I was loved

I once thought I was hated

I once believed I had a place

Until with the Devil I met

You may dance with the devil

In the pale moonlight

But never for all it is worth

Take him to the ball

Never meet him in dining hall

For if you take the Devil out to dinner...

"M-Marik?"


This story is not about to be a romance ever. This story is a tale of woe. This is a horror. You are here because I wanted to give something I had always imagined a go. Thanks to Iced Blood, this is the monstrosity that will finally give something I always wanted to know an answer.

What happens when Ryou or Marik's bodies are under the control of the evil spirits?

Dear audience, please, take a seat at this the gala of Ishtar Marik and partake in our buffet for thought.

May the donuts be delicious.
