Hello, sorry about not updating any of me stories in like, FOREVER, but not only have I been having a major case of writers block, Ideas for One-shots have been plaguing my mind so I'll get this one off my chest, for it is the only one so far. ENJOY
Sincerely,
HM:D
It hurts. This hunger, pain thirst, need, whatever you want to call it, its hell. Wait, that's not true. The Beginning is hell. The Beginning change was a living hell, for everything which powers your being stops, everything except your brain nervous systems, muscles, and, of course, your need for 'food'.
Hidden in the shadows, the light is searching for my weak body. I'll have to move sooner or later, preferably, later.
The alley that I collapsed in reeks of feces, urine, garbage, rotten fruit, and, most importantly, me, or rather death. The ground is moist from a recent rain, the walls are covered in various arts of graffiti, there is no outlet, and I'm in the furthermost corner from the entrance. At the entrance, I can see Taxies, cars, vans, trucks, humans, pets, stray or homeless animals, food vendor, basically anything you can find in New York US, passes me by. All the humans are enticing, but, alas, I must refrain. It would too troublesome to deal to deal with. So I wait, wait for the stars, and moon to come out with the night to play, for night is sanctuary.
I wait and wait. Seconds turns to minutes, minutes turn to hours, and by the time my waiting is over, six hours, forty-seven minutes, and two seconds have passed. At last, night, the domain for all of my kind and more, has come.
I stand, for it is time to catch my meal of the month. I 'feed' once every twenty-eight to thirty-one days or, as you humans put, roughly a month. Any longer and extreme pain captures my cold being. I have not 'eaten' in thirty-two days, seventeen hours, thirty-six minutes, and fifty-two seconds. No, I am not obsessed with keeping the time, but I am obsessed with not getting fucking hurt, you idiotic, sad excuse of a human. Trust me on this; it hurts like a son-of-a-bitch once you go past thirty-one days.
I walk into the club that I own. Nobody knows that I am the owner. All the public knows is that I am a 'man' who is very rich and never comes over to check how the club is doing. They know I am rich for everything is of the best and top model, some of which can cost fifty thousand dollars just to replace some of the parts. The interior of the club is of no significance to you, human. The name, though, is "Necromancer". Fits my kind and you can always find at least one of us inside and outside the club at all times, for all my workers are ones like me, all except the bartender. He may not know it, but a very scary monster loves. That monster is me. I would tell him, but I don't have the slightest inkling what his preferences are. I'm Bi. Oh, and my name is Yami by the way. I might tell you my actual age later.
My Aibou is a guy. Like I said, I don't know what his preferences are. He is currently twenty-five, and his name is Yugi. He is five feet, six inches tall. His skin is a pale, ethereal, cream color. His hair is similar to mine, with a few noticeable differences. For instance, the shape of his hair is exactly like, star-shaped. It starts as black but, instead of crimson, his hair switches to violet near the tips. The golden bangs he has, frame his face, as if trying to hide his angelic beauty from the harsh world. The difference there is that, I have three golden bangs which shoot up in front of my hair, like lightning bolts. What draws me to his intoxicating beauty though, are his eyes. Deep, wide, heavenly, and innocent amethyst gems which glitter with a child-like mind. Not only are they beautiful, they are also hypnotic, for I have never been able to look away from them first. It's almost as if his eyes are traps. Once they have you in their sights, you can never escape unless they turn away from you, as if you're not worth their time.
I've noticed that many people, men, women, and creatures of the night, will prance after him, trying to catch his gaze. Some more forcefully than others. Every time someone, usually male, pulls him outside against his will, they always come back a few minute later, tails tucked between their legs.
They'll come in wide-eyed, deathly pale, their eyes empty, as if they either lost their soul, or have simply lost the will to live. Their bodies come in tatters. Scratched, some deep and others shallow, bruised, and cuts decorate their entire body, and their clothes are barely there. Yet, in comes Yugi, happy as a fickle, completely unscathed and some of these people are extremely strong by human standards! It makes me wonder, "Is he really human?"
XxXxX
Its twelve thirty-nine a.m. and Yugi still hasn't been bothered. He'd usually be "busy" with a person by eleven o'clock at the latest. Maybe people are finally learning not to mess with Yugi anymore.
Promiscuous by Nelly Furtado is playing.
[N:] Am I throwing you off?
Nope
[N:] Didn't think so
How you doin' young lady
That feelin' that you givin' really drives me crazy
You don't have to play about the joke
I was at a loss of words first time that we spoke
You're looking for a girl that'll treat you right
You lookin' for her in the day time with the light
You might be the type if I play my cards right
I'll find out by the end of the night
[N:] You expect me to just let you hit it
But will you still respect me if you get it
All I can do is try, gimme one chance
What's the problem I don't see no ring on your hand
I be the first to admit it, I'm curious about you, you seem so innocent
[N:] You wanna get in my world, get lost in it
Boy I'm tired of running, lets walk for a minute
[Chorus]
Promiscuous girl
Wherever you are
I'm all alone
And it's you that I want
[N:] Promiscuous boy
You already know
That I'm all yours
What you waiting for?
Promiscuous girl
You're teasing me
You know what I want
And I got what you need
[N:] Promiscuous boy
Let's get to the point
Cause we're on a roll
Are you ready?
[Verse]
[N:] Roses are red
Some diamonds are blue
Chivalry is dead
But you're still kinda cute
Hey! I can't keep my mind off you
Where you at, do you mind if I come through
[N:] I'm out of this world come with me to my planet
Get you on my level do you think that you can handle it?
They call me Thomas
last name Crown
Recognize game
I'm a lay mine's down
[N:] I'm a big girl I can handle myself
But if I get lonely I'ma need your help
Pay attention to me I don't talk for my health
I want you on my team
[N:] So does everybody else.
Baby we can keep it on the low
Let your guard down ain't nobody gotta know
If you with it girl I know a place we can go
[N:] What kind of girl do you take me for?
[Chorus]
Don't be mad, don't get mean
[N:] Don't get mad, don't be mean
Hey! Don't be mad, don't get mean
[N:] Don't get mad, don't be mean
Wait! I don't mean no harm
I can see you with my t-shirt on
I can see you with nothing on
feeling on me before you bring that on
Bring that on
[N:] You know what I mean
Girl, I'm a freak you shouldn't say those things
I'm only trying to get inside your brain
To see if you can work me the way you say
It's OK, it's alright
I got something that you gonna like
Hey is that the truth or are you talking trash
Is your game M.V.P. like Steve Nash
[Chorus]
Promiscuous Girl
Wherever you are
I'm all alone
And it's you that I want
[N:] Promiscuous Boy
I'm calling your name
But you're driving me crazy
The way you're making me wait
Promiscuous Girl
You're teasing me
You know what I want
And I got what you need
[N:] Promiscuous Boy
We're one in the same
So we don't gotta play games no more
Women are grinding into me, trying to catch my attention. They are obviously competing. See, this is why I hate the females as a species. They think of men as prizes. Well, I do need to eat. Hmmm, I'll take one short-haired brunette, with blues eyes, wearing a very skimpy and very revealing dress. Thank you, have a nice day (A/N: New from The Colonel, Chicken and Tea! Wait, WHAT?! XD) She's the one trying to catch my attention the most.
"What's your name, Hime," I say over the music so she can hear me.
"Tea, Yours?"
"Yami. Want to take this elsewhere?" Tea grins, what she think is, a seductive smile.
"Would I ever, Yami"
XxXxX
"That…was ex-…exhilarating…Yami."
I move closer to her neck. I can practically hear her pulse. It's calling me, fucking teasing me. I lick my lips. Tea notices my moving. I can tell by her smell that she's worried and slightly afraid. Okay, let me tell you this first. Humans ARE aware that we exist. They ARE aware that there are many of us who live in the realm of the night. They also know that they have the chance of becoming our meals during the night. Now, you must think that we just take and eat whenever. Well, you're….FUCKING WRONG! We're NOT damn ANIMALS, you idiotic, pessimistic, little bastard pests! We do have rules! Now, let explain them.
We have three rules that pertain to my species. Rule one, you first must be invited into whatever household unless you own it. Two, each and every one of us is only allowed one kill per month. Three, you can only feed if you and the human have engaged in some type of a physical activity. Finally, you must clean up the "mess" you've made. If any of these rules are broken there is a dire consequence depending on which one you break. If you break number one, you are killed, number two, flogging, number three, no food for two months, and number four, a decade of community service. Now, where were we.
"Y-Yami, what are you doing?" Even though I can smell her fear, the sound of it lacing her voice is music to my ears.
"AHH-mff!" She tries to scream for help, but humans are not allowed to interfere when one of my kind is feeding, as the treaty states. So I cover her mouth to shut her up. I continue to feed for seven minutes straight. She was already dead five minutes ago due to blood loss. Once I finish, I get up, get dressed, and leave to alert Seto of the "mess".
XxXxX
I'm closing up the bar. The only other person, besides myself, her is Yugi. He's been stealing glances at me when he thinks I'm not looking. Silly hu-
"I know what and who you are, Yami, prince of the Night, he who was chosen by Night herself, he who is the strongest of them all. He, who is cursed," Yugi says out of the blue. I stiffen. No human knows that much about me. In fact, only those closest to me know who I am and no one, no one, knows about my curse. So, here's my question you all who are reading this… HOW DOES HE FUCKING KNOW!?
"You thought I didn't know, Yami? I'm not stupid. I wasn't saved for that. Nor am I a human though." My back is facing towards him. I turn around.
"If you're not human then-" When I turn around, it was like looking at a clone of myself. It had my slight tan, black star-shaped hair fading to ruby-red at the tips, same adult face, same blonde bangs with three shooting up, and my same deep, crimson, blood-red eyes. It was still wearing Yugi's clothes and was still his height. When it spoke it had my same deep baritone voice.
"This is what I am and I am the last of my kind, who were hunted by humans five years ago." My jaw drops. No way. He's a-
"Shapeshifter," I finish my though out loud. Yugi doesn't react. I can tell he want to say more. I waited for him to continue. I didn't have to wait long.
Yugi changed back to his former form from before. I believe it's the one he was born in, making it his natural form. He walked up to me, stopped roughly three paces from me, and kneeled like they did in ancient Egypt. Right knee blow him, left knee in front of him, right fist over his heart, eyes closed, and head bowed, face facing the floor.
"At long last I have found you, Master."
XxXxX
Me: I so rock
Theaxher and Havoc: *glaaaaaare* Work on your other damn stories, dammit!
Me: ^_^
Havoc: If you don't finish at least the rough draft of one story, I'll run away
Me: Okay! *Lazes around*
Havoc: Okay, I won't run away, but I WILL eat all your candy!
Me: NOOOOO! NOT MY CANDY!
Theaxher: Then work
Me: Maybe. Anyways, I don't have a sequel planned but, if at least 25 people request me to do so, then I will try to come up with one! Take that universe! *lightning bolt* Ow.
Theaxher: For those of you who don't know, that came from Avatar: The last Airbender, from the character Sakka.
