Blood Hungry
Mirror, Mirror on the Wall
A young black haired girl sat on her throne, shrouded in darkness, staring into a mirror she had recently stolen to a certain deceased noble. The mirror was like a television set, in which as long as the owner had some sort of magical ability, they can watch the events happening in other worlds without the owner being there. In the mirror was scenery of Tokyo again being sweltered away by acid rain, as people screamed and agonized for help and shelter. She smirked in disgust and threw her head back.
"Ugh…this is so boring! Does nothing interesting happen in these worlds anymore?" She crossed her legs then snapped her fingers to make the image in the mirror change. The next scene was a skirmish taking place between modern day looking teenagers and Oni. The girl took a sip of her glass, which contained blood, and followed with a sigh. "YUE!"
A beautiful tall man with flowing long white hair entered the room with a straight face.
"Yes, my vampiress?" he wailed, standing a foot behind the short haired-girl's throne. She stretched her arms, being careful not to spill the wine glass half filled with blood.
"I'm bored! Entertain me and explain to me the latest news and gossip on the streets," she blabbed childishly. Yue turned his ice blue eyes into the air and thought for a bit.
"Well…I have heard that there was an encounter between a group of people and a particular person in the acidic streets in the world of Tokyo…"
The vampire blinked, anticipation building in her spine.
"Oh? And who is this particular person, might I ask?" Her brown eyes narrowed as she raised her black knee-high with her free hand. Yue gulped as he prepared to answer.
"Your twin brother…"
The girl instantly grinded her teeth and shot up.
"Where is he?"
Yue bit his lip and shrugged.
"I don't know. Some say he ran off into another world after being discovered," he answered regretting. He knew that a day like this was sure to come. She threw her glass into the cold stone floor as it shattered into a million pieces; blood staining all around.
"I want you to go into the country of Japan, the one with CLAMP Academy and start looking into the archives for information! I want you to find him! Do anything you can! Search every space! Ask every person! Torture info out of people if you got to! Go to every single world if you need to! I don't care as long as you find him! Bring him to me!"
Yue closed his eyes and bowed.
"Yes, Sumeragi-san…"
She turned and stared down at the mess she had just created.
"Do not call me that, Yue. You know how I despise formality. Call me by my name next time. Call me…Hokuto."
Yue didn't reply. He just turned and disappeared into the darkness. Now alone, the young vampire reseated herself upon her throne. She again gave her attention to the mirror which she had forgotten she left on. She smirked to herself.
"This is a pretty hefty mirror. I forget who I…borrowed…this from. Some guy used to own this place…Fei-Wong Reed was his name I believe…? Ah whatever, the guy shouldn't leave such nice luxuries unguarded," she explained to herself. She pitied herself that she didn't have anybody to have a conversation with, but felt blessed that she at least had Yue. Well, when she didn't send him out on errands for her. Again watching the mirror, she witnessed another human-won battle in the country of Oto. She snapped her fingers again to change the scenery to that of another world. She blinked in surprise when this scenario was different from all the other ones. Instead of watching people suffering, or some meaningless fighting, this scenery showed a young, brown haired girl twirling in her room.
"Well this is certainly different."
The girl she was watching had emerald eyes, and wore clothes that reminded her of gypsy apparel. Through the glass mirrors of the girl's room, there was an admirable land, surrounded by golden deserts. Hokuto examined the dancing girl, taking in her personality and status.
"Why would the mirror show me this? What's so great about this girl?" she asked herself. She went quiet as an event was about to take place. The emerald-eyed girl hasted her way over to her shelf, pulling open one of the drawers. She pulled out a tiara and placed it correctly over her hair. She day dreamed of her adventures that she had embarked on. She experienced travel through different worlds. Met all kinds of civilizations. Most importantly, she fell in love. She constantly had his image stuck in the back of her head, of a brown haired, boy of similar age. She would occassionally remember three other faces. One being a cute, rabit like creature. The second being a blonde, blue-eyed comical magician. And lastly, a tall, black-haired samurai with a much tough attitude. There was a knock on her door, which followed with two people casually entering. In came a tall black haired man, accompanied by a slightly shorter, silver haired man. The black haired fellow sighed and beckoned to the girl.
"Sakura, hurry and stop playing. You need to be ready to address the people. Be a princess for once, will you?" he joked. Hokuto's eyes widened at the man's comment.
'So she's a princess, eh?'
The girl, known by the name of Sakura, pouted.
"I'm ready, Oni-san," she retorted as she straightened her posture and took deep breath. The shorter man smiled.
"You've really blossomed into a strong woman, Sakura-hime," he commented. Sakura put on a huge grin.
"Thank you, Yukito-san. Now, let's go and do this. I've been looking forward to this day," she replied before motioning all three to the hallway. Hokuto snapped her fingers repeatedly to keep in sight the girl in every room she passed. Sakura, the now assumed prince or king, and his high priest marched onto the balcony, looming over all the cheerful citizens of the desert country. Sakura raised her hands and smiled to her people.
"Towns people of the Country of Clow! The first day of the Yellow Apple Harvest has begun!"
The mob of people cheered loudly. The Princess of Clow began her speech with the Prince and High Priest at her side.
Astounded, Hokuto straightened her posture, letting a very mischievous smile plant her pretty lips.
"A country with peace, beautiful sands, happy citizens…this is quite a rare discovery. No war, hungry or suffering people, and definitely no vampires…it is one worth ruling over…"
She lustfully glared at the mirror, taking in the face of the young princess. She held out her hand and clasped it tightly, as if she were holding the girl, and her country, within her fist.
"Dear brother…when you and I meet again…I shall use your powers and show you what it really means to be a vampire…" she echoed through the halls. Bodies of shadows started gathering around her as if she had her own personal congress of yes men.
"Starting with the Country of Clow…"
Who is her twin brother? What plans does the vampire girl have in store for the Country of Clow? Read on next chapter!
I know what you're thinking. Why does Hokuto seem evil? Isn't she usually a good character in the previous CLAMP mangas? Well I do know this, but again, this is fan fiction. I can write what I want here. So to those who read my previous fiction, you know what I'm going to say.
LEAVE ME LOTS OF REVIEWS! Mwahahaha!
