Its me again!
So I was listening to Eyes On Fire by Blue Foundation and this story just popped into my head!
Tell me what you think! :)
The Black Rose
-Intro-
Human's crave physical contact.
From the simplest touch, to the more, deeper meaning.
But what if, one day, it was all stripped away from you?
That you could kill with just,
One.
Touch.
My time with my two brothers has certainly been an interesting one. From the vampire's that come with their troubles to the one's that wish for the mortality cursed on them to be taken away. But I always love to 'see' each one's story before we end them. But never has my gift been shunned by one of our own. A vampire asking for death- from begging to committing a crime- has never not let me see. Until that one day.
- Aro POV -
My eyes gazed over the newest offender. A thick chain coiled around the throat, locking the arms behind the back. It was a girl. Physically appeared seventeen or eighteen. Her skin the whitest snow, her eyes the darkest night. Hair the darkest raven, brushing her shoulders. Caressing her angled face. Felix and Demetri stood at her side. Keeping the young vision kneeled before my brothers and I. "Do you know why you are here, my dear?" I asked, keeping my gaze locked with hers. A smile ghosted across her lips before it vanished. "I do. But I must admit," Her voice trailed off as she moved her gaze across our places on the three golden chairs in front of her. "I'm surprised you haven't already killed me." Her eyes locked back onto mine. "And I assume before I die you want to see my motives?" She asked in a flat, but thoughtful tone. I nodded to Demetri before he loosed her chains on one hand. "Very much so." I answered, gracefully getting to my feet. I dissented down the three steps as Felix pulled the girl to her feet. I reached my hand towards her before her comment stopped me cold. "I wouldn't do that." Just four words that made me pull back and watch her. "And why is that?" I asked her, a small snarl pulling from my lips. "Because. You'll die." Caius was on his feet in an instant. "You dare threaten us?!" He snarled. "No, not threaten." The girl corrected, her eyes on my angered brother. "I'm just warning you. But go ahead if you must." Her tone was dull before her hand was in front of me. Relaxed and limp. I glanced at her dark orbs before grasping her small hand into mine. Images flashed in the back of my eyes only for a second before they froze. My chest tightening as my eyes watched my marble skin start to cave in on my form. My head started spinning as my sight darkened. I barely registered the hard marble floor making contact with my knee's. A breathless gasp slowly flowing out of my lungs into the room. My hands slipped from grasping hers before I collapsed to the bright-colored floor. The girl crouched down next to me. Her lips hovering over my ear. "You think you know pain? I can suck your very life force from you with one touch." Her voice was a heavy hiss. "I can end you just by holding your wrist." The room was silent. Both my brothers on their feet. The girl sat back, her now brighter eyes seeming to bear into mine. "I am something you do not want to touch, Master Aro." Her tone was dull again. Slowly my sight returned as did my breath. My skin slowly filling back up again. I slowly rose, watching the girl. "Never before," I started, my voice but a whisper. "Have I encountered a being with your particular gift before." I could feel Marcus and Caius flank me on either side as the girl rose to her feet. Felix and Demetri each grasping her arm tightly. I pushed my hands together, placing them against my lips in thought. "How old are you, my dear." Her eyes narrowed slightly. "I was turned when I was nineteen. That was two hundred and nine years ago." A smile pulled my lips. She would be a wonderful addition to the Guard... "And what is your name, child?" She didn't seem to be affected with being called such. "Rose. Rose Blackheart." My smile grew. I'm positive I look raving mad. "My dear, Rose. Would you do me and my brothers the honor of joining our Guard?" "Aro!" Caius hissed on my right, tightly grasping my forearm. "Are you mad?! This, this, this rat committed a crime, threatened you and then almost had you killed! And you offer it a place on our Guard?!" The smile still shone on my face as I looked at my brother. "I know what I am doing, Caius, brother." I slowly turned back to Rose. "Well, my dear? Would you do me and my brother's," Caius snarled behind me. "The most highest honor of joining our Guard?"
So, what do you think?
I know it was a little short but it was mainly a background story for the next chapter :)
