Ariku: Hello. I'm Ariku, the insane asylum escapee.
Miya: And, I'm sorry to say, she's my hikari.
Ariku: Which makes you one helluva crazy bitch. And guess what?
Miya: I get to say your first disclaimer ever, right?
Ariku: What a mind reader…
Miya: Ariku does not own Yu-Gi-Oh, the lyrics to the song, or her body in most cases… but she does own Lucia and Messiah.

Chapter 1: Her Song
Crowded streets all cleared away
One by one
Hollow heroes seperate
As they run…
Lucia strolled down the street casually, hands shoved in her pockets. Blue locks fell messily over her face, setting off angry violet eyes and pale skin. 'I hate it when Messiah does this…' Her thoughts were not that of a happy creature. 'God damn him! I should've stayed home!' Her garb today was baggy blue jeans consisting of six pockets, and bandages wrapped tightly around her upper stomach and chest, showing slight midrift and cleavage that definitely annoyed the human beings around her.
She didn't really seem to mind the inhuman and confused stares coming her way, that seemed to say "What is she WEARING? Is she insane? How indecent!" Lucia could only smile. These people didn't have a clue… and they were already jumping at the chance to judge someone they couldn't even begin to understand.
You're so cold
Keep your hand in mine
Wise men wonder while
Starved men die...
A man with rather tan skin and medium length black hair stared blankly out the window, obviously waiting for someone to show up. His eyes were gray, a void expression on his face at the moment. He could imagine how frightening he must've looked to the few others just there to drink coffee or chat with their friends. Controlling the urge to bang his head on the table and cause a spectacle, he began to wonder where in hell she was. Leaving a sixteen year old to navigate her way to a place she'd never been to before was most likely not one of the smartest things Messiah had ever done. He smirked. 'She's probably pissed off at me for bugging her to come.'
He sighed exasperatedly as he heard bells, meaning someone had entered the rather large café. 'No need to look' he thought, assuming Lucia would strut up to his table any second now and sit her ass down as noisily as she could, signaling that she was mad. But it didn't happen. He looked up curiously, only to see that two white haired men who resembled each other, yet one had crimson eyes, and the one standing in front who was ordering had brown. "Interesting," Messiah muttered as he studied the two with curiosity replacing the emptiness in his eyes.
Show me how we end this alright
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfy an empty inside
Well that's alright, let's give this another try…
Lucia continued walking, more or less dragging her feet, towards the place her brother had said to meet her. Mind you, she didn't exactly know where it was, but she was armed with a good idea of where it was, and Messiah's directions of course. She stopped her mindless shuffling when she spotted the place from across the street. "Hahn's Café," she read aloud. 'Trippy name.' She paused for a moment as her violet eyes spotted a boy with white hair, about to enter the café in which she was supposed to meet her brother. Strutting along behind him was a twin so it seemed, having that 'I'm bored as fuck' look on his face.
If you find your family, don't you cry
In this land of make-believe, dead and dry
You're so cold, but you feel alive
Lay your hands on me one last time...
Just as the nicer one with brown eyes was about to open the door, he spotted Lucia out of the corner of his eye. He blinked and then smiled sweetly at her, watching her for a moment, only to be nudged inside by his crimson eyed look alike. She blushed, and smiled back just before he was pushed through the door. 'I was staring again' she groaned on the inside. She jogged across the busy street to get to the café, and once on the other side heard a pudgy man with bloodshot eyes pull up to the curb and yell at her. Something about being a brainless whore. "ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME!?!" he shouted, spit spraying onto the side of her face. "Bad move, pal." She turned around in a split second, and almost laughed at the expression on the fat man's face as she placed a well-aimed kick into his jaw. He gasped as her foot buried itself into his cheek, horrified at how much it hurt.
Show me how we end this alright
Show me how defenseless you really are
Satisfy an empty inside
That's alright, let's give this another try
Tubby, as she had already labeled him in her head, stumbled and fell, coughing up blood onto the sidewalk. "Y-you're not human!" he cried and scrambled to get up. He practically launched himself into the driver's seat, and took off. Lucia yawned, unaware of the boys she had seen just minutes earlier watching her through the window.
Boisterous laughter slipped from Bakura. "She showed that fat ass who is boss!" Ryou stared at her intently. "She's tough, yami. The man shouldn't of yelled at her anyways…" Bakura turned to his hikari and grinned. "True. But if he hadn't of yelled at her, then we wouldn't have had something fun to watch." "She could've gotten hurt," Ryou murmured. This caused Bakura to laugh even louder. "I admit, at first, I thought he was going to slaughter her. Ra she looks hella fragile!" Ryou directed his gaze to Lucia and smiled, "She's something special." Then the bandages then caught his attention. Bakura voiced his hikari's thoughts. "The bandages are interesting, aren't they? Wonder what happened to her." He grinned maliciously.

It's alright…
It's alright…
It's alright…

Ariku: Well, there's chapter one. Tell me what you think, or don't tell me what you think. Either is great.
Miya: I'm proud of you Ari. You actually started off with a good first chapter for your very first fan fic ever…
Ariku: Woohoo… what a rare thing. Yami complimenting me.
Miya: Don't expect it too often, hikari.
Ariku: By the way, the song is So Cold by Breaking Benjamin... And finally... after 5 TRIES I've got this stupid thing done. Changed her name in my head about a bazillion times, and the voices were not happy with me...
