Edgar and Shu were playing in the woods, a game of tag. Shu was it. As Edgar ran, he heard soft whimpering. He followed the sound, to a small wolf with red fur, a black cresent shape on his forehead, and golden eyes. "Tag, you're it. Hey, what happened to the wolf?" Shu asked, catching up to Edgar. The pup looked up at them. "I dont know, but he looks so helpless. What can we do to help it?" Edgar asked worridly. The pup didn't seem to be whimpering anyone, but instead its eyes were focused on the vampire. A man suddenly came, and tried to take the pup by the neck. "Come on mongrel," the man said when the pup refused to behave. Something told Shu to protect the pup from this man. "Hey, leave it alone!" Shu said. "Don't tell me what to do child," the man snapped. The pup bit the man's hand. "How dare you bite the hand of your Master?" the man scolded. "Maybe if you were gentle, it wouldn't bite you," Edgar said. "Dont tell me what to do child, get that through that thick head of yours," the man said. "I'm the one with a thick head, so if you value your life leave this pup alone," Shu threatened. "What can a small thing like you do?" the man insulted Shu. Getting mad, Shu revealed his fangs to the man. "I thought vampires didn't exist. Well, lucky for me I have a cross," the man informed him. "Well we do exist, and crosses don't have any affect on us," Shu said. Fearing his life, the man left. The pup licked Shu's hand, making the vampire laugh, as well as Edgar. Then the pup transformed into a human form, with red hair, that reached his elbows in curls, a black cresent on his forehead, and gold eyes. "Thank you for scaring him off for me," the 'pup' thanked them. He was their age, around Edgar's height. "You're welcome. My name is Shu, and this is Edgar," Shu said. "I-I don't have a name, Master always called me 'mongrel,'" the neko said. He still had wolf ears, no human ears. "Well, what do you want to be called?" Edgar asked. The neko thought for a few minutes. "Rex," he finally replied. "Okay Rex, do you want to play with us?" Shu asked. Rex smiled, and nodded.
First chapter. I DO NOT OWN ANY DIABOLIK LOVERS CHARACTERS but I do own my OCs. I came up with this when I was reading different fanfics about Shuuma, and I thought it would be fun to have a third person. The next chapter will be at the time where Yui gets kidnapped by the Mukami's. Rex is still in the fanfic, living as a Mukami, but sometimes will call Yuma by his childhood name. In this Edgar, Rex, and Shu are 10, but for the rest of the story they are 17.
