A stupid little one shot about Yukio and Amaimon xD I just hope I dont get carried away. The songs can be found on youtube if you wanna listen to them.
It all started on a moonless night, when silence could be described as the chirping of crickets and the pitter patter of falling rain. Yukio, Rin and Amaimon were all at a banquet served by Mephisto for some event they were all unaware of. Among them strolled rich-looking people dressed in cocktail dresses and suits. They, too, were well dressed, fitting in nicely with the crowd. Of course, the mood was classy and fancy, making Rin and Amaimon both feel quite uncomfortable. Though the two did not get along very well, they were obliged by Mephisto to behave their best, seeing as how this classy party could be easily ruined.
"Say, Amaimon, how have you been doing?" Yukio asked, as they sat together on a couch sipping at the bitter liquid in their crystal glasses. Rin glared at his brother and the unneeded question. Though he must admit, the boredom of the event must have driven Yukio to do that.
"Oh, I have been doing quite well. You?" he replied politely, the classiness of the party obviously affecting his words.
"Nicely. But I do say, this party is gettting a little... boring. How about some entertainment, good chap?" Yukio's words still held a tint of classiness, causing Rin to raise his eyebrow at his brother's unusual wording. Rin's hands were crossed, seeing as how he had put down the bitter drink long ago, a disappproving look in his eye.
Amaimon, however, was not phased by the wording, and agreed at the idea. "I do say... they offer no good entertainment around here, do they? Nothing but rich families blabbering. No fun in that, is there? We should make it livelier, should we not?" Both Yukio and Amaimon nodded at thier own idea, while Rin was baffled at their unusual behavior.
"Let's see. Theres a beautiful piano. Why don't we play it?" Amaimon suggested, and Yukio nodded at the idea. Rin was surprised to find out that both his brother and the crazy demon both played to piano. And no, I do not mean play as in a simple song. I mean play as in...play.
Yukio sat down on the piano first, leaving his glass on the frame. As he paused, everyone around the piano looked in awe at the young gentleman who just sat. After a short moment of silence, he started playing. One by one, the notes formed a melody, and the melody resonated within the high walls of the room. By the third note, everyone went quiet, listening to the beautiful song. Rin was shocked at his brother, but his mind was filled with an even stronger emotion. It seemed like the feeling of reminisce had somehow crept into his mind. The song was known as Aoe Sweet 4th Movement, but at the time, nobody know what it was called, but it didn't matter that much. The simple niceness of the song brought back memories, like sweet honey melted in raw cocoa, it was both a pleasent and sad experience.
By the look of it, everyone felt the same. The atmosphere became warmer and sound of keys playing filled in the void of talking. But too quickly, the song ended, leaving behind a silence sharper then before. Before long, thought it was broken by the applause of many people. It was indeed a beautiful peice, and everyone, even Rin, were amazed by his brother.
As Yukio stood up, he looked at Amaimon, who was preparing to play his own peice. The crowd looked away, whispering about the amazing song played to them, and not knowing another one was to continue. Amaimon sat down, a scary look of concentration and steep sadness. He left his glass where Yukio's had been.
Slowly, he started playing lightly, catching the attention of some people. It was Chopin, as many had realized. The playing grew louder, deeper, mezmorizing whoever heard. Yukio, too, was caught in the debt of the song, even more so then Rin, who was sitting, mouth open, watching the demon play. Who knew that Amaimon could actually play...
That song, too, ended to quickly, and Amaimon had a somewhat serious look in his eyes when it ended, painful enough to raise questions in Rin's mind, but calm and happy enough to just confuse Rin. The room burst in applause for a second time, this time a bit more fierce then the last. Far away from the ruckus, Mephisto was sitting at the bar looking with a slight smile at the demon boy.
Yukio seemed a bit ruffled by the song, and realized that he had some stiff competition. He felt that there was no way he could win against Amaimon with classical music. He had to think differently...
By now, this had somehow turned into a contest. Amaimon smiled as he drank some more from his crystal glass, and thought about how fun this could become. Yukio, too, smiled, thinking of how badly he could beat Amaimon and how proud he would feel. He may not seem like it, but Yukio was actually pretty competitive.
Oh no... they're drunk, aren't they... Rin realized, knowing very well the stage fright his brother must feel. He stopped Yukio just before he could sit down to preform his piece.
"Don't do this Yukio," Rin whispered seriously. He knew that many people were watching, and he didn't want his brother to look like a fool. Who knows what stupid think he might do if he's drunk,
"Nonsense Rin, I most obviously must beat Amaimon," he said loudly, the fire and terror in his eyes creeping Rin out. Rin looked behind him to see Amaimon glaring at Yukio with the same feirce deadly expression.
"NO! GET OFF THE PIANO! NOW!" he pulled Yukio from the piano, and quickly sat down in his place so that he wouldn't be able to sit back.
"Oh, I see, brother!" Comprehention brightened Yukio's eyes as he backed away from the piano. "you want to play, too! Well, play on! I'm pretty sure you'll suck and then I can beat both of you," he said with a friendly smile. Drunk Yukio is a scary Yukio.
"Don't be so sure of yourself," Amaimon warned in a classy creepy manner. But Rin did not pay attention to the low quarrel they were having. He instead paid attention to the people staring at him, expecting another beautiful song to be played.
Rin could not play the piano. Actually... Rin sucked at everything that had to do with music. Except for the lute...he was always oddly good at the lute...
He had never played the piano before, so he cautiously pressed a few keys to begin with. Then, he finally knew what he could play.
Slowely, one note after the other, Rin played a single melody. He messed up most of the notes, but in the end he finally got it. Twinkle, twinkle, little star. How I wonder what you are. Up above the world so high. Like a daimond in the sky. Twinkle twinkle little star. How I wonder what you are!
The room was silent, a faint echo of the last note lingering in the minds of the people. More silence. Then a slight hushed mass of whispers erupted among the people as Rin waited for the applause he would never get.
"that was... very nice, brother..." Yukio said after Rin went up to him.
"I know! For a beginner I'm not that bad, right!" Rin asked, hopeful.
"No. You suck," Amaimon muttered bluntly.
Rin was silent.
Yukio was quiet.
Amaimon was awkwardly standing in the middle of the two.
"Why don't we sit down?" Yukio asked, recieving approval from both Amaimon and Rin. After sitting down and sipping once more at their bitter drinks, Rin concluded that this party was just as boring as it was before the piano incident. He was debating whether or not to stop Yukio from drinking, but then decided it would be more interesting to let him sip on. After a few more boring minutes, Yukio finally broke the tension.
"Wow. I never noticed how much you resemble a unicorn, Amaimon," Yukio stated, admiring the interesting spike on top of his head.
Rin silently freaked at how Amaimon would answer that question, but was releived when Amaimon took it positively.
"Neighh," he said happily. "I am a unicorn!"
"Haha! No you're not! You're a warwhal!" Yukio said laughing.
"and you're a pair of shirts!" Amaimon said back, and they both laughed as if that made any sense. Rin was confused but decided not to doubt their humour. Rin wondered whether they were high or drunk... he looked at the bitter liquid and then shivered at the thought of what Mephisto could have done with it.
"Oh, and Rin. Rin is a..." Yukio started...
"Rin is a bottle of toothpaste!" Amaimon answered ruffling Rin's hair. Rin backed away from Amaimon, who continued getting closer to Rin and messing his hair.
"or a microwave...!," Yukio laughed, and then suddenly stopped. "Wow Amaimon, I never realized how caring you are... It's like... you were... actually nice. I mean. I always thought you were a stuck up brat that cared about nothing other then himself, but today I found out... that you look like a unicorn and can play the piano!" Yukio said seriously, looking at Amaimon.
Rin started laughing, but Amaimon stayed serious. "...I am a stuck up brat that only cares about himself, but... I'm self taught. You know. You're actually not that bad either. I always thought you were a goody two shoes that was secretly in love with Rin. I mean... I saw the way you looked at Rin when he was sleeping," Amaimon said back. "But now I realize that you're not a goody two shoes! Cause... you're not!"
Rin stopped laughing. "wait... what? WHY WERE YOU STARING AT ME IN MY SLEEP, YUKI-...and wait... how would you know that he was staring at me, Amaimon?..." Rin was gatting scared.
"Because I watch you sometimes," Amaimon answered as if that was the most average thing in the world.
"Wait... were you the one who stole my candy stash last month?" Rin asked, now angered.
"No. That was Kuro," Amaimon said back. "Hey, Rin, want some water?" he randomly asked.
"...sure? Yeah, why not. Im pretty thirsty," Rin answered just before Amaimon left. When he came back, he handed the glass to Rin, who chugged it down.
And to this day not one of the three boys remember what happened after Rin had that "water"
I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THESE SONGS, CHARACTERS, OR ANY PART OF BLUE EXORCIST.
so, for you people who were completely confused as to the songs they were playing, then... here are the songs. Even though I deaply believe not many of you would care
First off, Yukio started by playing Aoe Sweet 4th Movement from the anime
Then, Amaimon counter attacked by playing Chopin's Nocturne op. WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WHATSOEVER WITH THE ANIME. yeah... im not sure why I chose that piece... at least Yukio's had something to do with the anime...
Damn. This. WAS SO FRICKEN STUPID :D no. really. I apologize for the waste of time. THE RANDOM PIANO MOMENT WAS SO FRICKEN...grr,, haha. Yeah, it was late and i was bored and... what else to do then write a completely random peice of fanfic? When I think of Amaimon drunk at a banquet in a tailcoat and suit, all i can think of is... classy. Only thing thats missing is some Chopin.
Maybe I'll write a second part of what they don't remember (O.O) if you people want me to..which you probably wont... BUT THANKS FOR READING XD
