Ummmm, this is a rather random story… It's a bit odd. In a scary kind of way. But nevertheless odd. I was in a psycho-killer type mood when I wrote it, I guess. If you can guess who the speaker is…kudos. As of now, it's a one-shot. Um, read on if you dare?
Disclaimer: I do not own Yu Yu Hakusho. Um, yeah.
Darkness. It's beautiful, isn't it? The same beauty held in a cloudless, moonless night. Nights where you can see only the stars, spread like shattered crystal across the velvety obsidian sky. Nights like tonight. I love those nights. They're so inspiring. It's a pity that I can't enjoy this one.
I bite back a scream of frustration, but my anger is not so easily silenced. Nearby, several rocks explode, startling the slumbering birds and sending them, screeching, into the darkness. I take a deep, calming breath. I must keep my temper; at least for now. But…two years? Two years?Mind you, that's nothingcompared to how long I've really been waiting for this moment. But to be so close, so painstakingly close, it's infuriating. It annoys me to no end. But revenge, oh, how sweet that will taste. I allow myself a little smile, and begin to hum softly.
A plan. I finally have a plan. Ah, yes, and it's one that will ensure his demise. Of course, others will have to pay as well. One might say that would be taking innocent lives, but what is innocence, anyway? Noting more than an illusion, I say. People once called me innocent, but even then it was but an act on my part. Even then I was driven by revenge. And anyway, I've seen my so-called 'victims' in action. They are far from anything I would define as innocent. No, no innocent lives will be lost from my actions. Ignorant? Naïve? Trusting? Perhaps. But not innocent.
And so it begins, this little game of mine. After this, I'll be free. Free of my obsession, free of my hatred, free of…him. I'm almost certain. Almost. I despise that word. Because almost is never definite, never sure. I shake my head violently, quickly dismissing my doubtful thoughts. If I'm wrong, so be it. If I'm right…he dies.
*blinks* Uh… Like I said, good luck at guessing who the speaker is. If you do, you get a cookie! Well, actually I don't HAVE a cookie at the moment. I don't even have ice cream. *sniffle* If this thing gets enough reviews, I MAY turn it into an actual story as I originally planned, but I'm a manic procrastinator, so for now I'm just going to keep it as a one-shot. So there. R/R, pretty please? Ciao!
