Author note: I do not own Criminal Minds or Yakitate! Japan. Nor do I own the songs that are in the 'Story of Evil' series by Vocaloid that inspired this fic, mainly the song 'Servant of Evil.'
Obviously, this fic will have to be AU. So...nothing's really changed in the Criminal Minds universe, except let's just pretend this took place BEFORE Season 8, so Alex Blake isn't around replacing Emily Prentiss. For the Yakitate! Japan universe though, backstories for certain characters have been changed slightly, and those certain characters may be somewhat OOC.
Warning: Violence, possible pairings (mostly onesided ones, but you get the idea), possible crossdressing in later chapters, more violence...I think that covers it.
Constructive Criticism would be great (or at least a review), and I hope you guys read and enjoy! Thanks!
Story of Evil
Prologue: Remembrance
Spencer Reid stared quietly at the envelope before opening it. It was a late night at the headquarters, probably around 10:30 in the evening or so, and he should be getting home. But he had gotten a letter. Again. Slowly, he opened it and started to read the letter inside.
Dear Spencer,
Things are going well. The nurses are starting to get freaked out from my constant singing, but I'm generally okay besides that. They've asked if I sing anything else besides the two songs I know so well, but I've told them those songs are ones I know by heart, and that's why I sing them often. Of course, you know the real reason why I sing those songs. Because I'm the servant to my sister, my queen. Sophie.
I haven't heard from her at all. It's been months. Maybe she's still trying to build her kingdom again.
Maybe I'm not okay. I don't know. Maybe it's just me. And I'm trying to learn some new songs as I write this, so not to make the nurses get mad at me. I don't like it when people get mad at me...
How are you doing? Are you having enough coffee? How are your knight friends? I imagine you are all out there, defeating the bad guys! Killed any dragons yet, or made any evil kings or queens surrender, Spencer? Maybe you can come by and visit again; if you're not too busy, of course. But...knights do get a break occasionally, right? Right?
Don't worry. Even if you don't visit anytime soon, I'll keep writing.
Sincerelie, Sylvan
P.S. The nurse just told me I spelt 'Sincerelie' wrong. It's spelt as 'Sincerely.'
Sincerely, Sylvan
"Hey Reid." Spencer looked up from his letter to see Emily Prentiss, who sat down beside him. "What's that?" she asked, pointing to the letter.
"Oh, it's from Sylvan."
Prentiss seemed confused. "Sylvan?" she paused for a moment before remembering. "You mean Sylvan Kirisaki? From that case two months ago?"
Reid nodded, showing the letter to her. "Yeah." he responded. "He's been writing letters to me everyday since the case ended."
Prentiss smiled a little. "That's sweet."
Spencer sighed quietly. "I know...but recently he seems to be quite lonely. I guess even with all he's doing where he is now he still misses his sister."
"His sister manipulated him, Reid." Prentiss responded, remembering the case entirely. "She manipulated him from the very beginning. She made him believe that she was a queen and he was nothing but her servant, even though they were related."
"I know." Spencer looked at the letter again. "It's not like we can tell him she's not coming back for him. I don't think she ever will."
