Synopsis: Sho's junkie mother has suddenly decided to marry a mysterious man named Luka. Luka isn't also alone. He has a son named Kei. Both father and son are so pale, and are only around when it's dark. Sho's mother has been acting differently since meeting the two and Sho can't shake the feeling that there is something shady about this father and son duo.
AN: This has a different storyline entirely to the movie. I have also been listeneing to a bunch of songs as I get into the mood for this. I will put them at the end of this chapter.
Chapter 1
Sho sat in the filthy apartment reading some porn magazines. He went to turn the page to the center fold, which was the best in the porn mags. It usually showed some busty blonde with nothing on but her birthday suit. He scowled as he realized that the pages were stuck together. He tossed the magazine away in disgust. "Damn Toshi." He mumbled as he got to his feet, thinking of his friend who lived downstairs from him in another shithole apartment like his own.
He felt his stomach grumble and looked in the fridge, which was as bare as the women in the magazine he had just been flicking through. Cursing, he went to the cupboard. After rifling through it, he pulled out a pack of cup noodles. Smiling in triumph, he opened it, and tore the seasoning packet open, and after he emptied its contents into the cup of noodles, he began boiling the old kettle. The kettle had just started to boil, when the lights in the apartment went out. "Fuck." He swore, and shrugged and pulled out the dry noodles from the cup and bit into it.
Elsewhere, in town two figures sat in the dark corner of a seedy bar. "What about her?" The smaller of the two pointed to a well dressed woman who clung onto the arm of a man who looked like a body builder. "No, not her. Too much trouble. I want to find someone stupid, someone easy to manipulate." The elder man shook his head, his dark eyes scanning the crowd. His eyes fell on a woman who stumbled drunkenly around the bar, giggling like a dumb girl. "Her. She's the one." The elder replied and smirked. "Luka, you can't be serious. She's a junkie. Look at the glazed look of her eyes." The smaller one faced the elder, Luka, his long wavy blonde hair shaking as he shook his head with a look of distaste on his face. "She can be manipulated. She's the one, Kei. Bring her over here." Luka raked a hand through his own dark locks as the blonde sighed, and approached the woman. He whispered something in her ear and frowned in displeasure as the woman laughed this screeching sound, which immediately made Kei think she was related to a banshee. She stumbled over to their table and plonked herself down beside Luka. "Hey handsome. Wanna date? I can do it cheap." She said, and placed her hand on Luka's. Kei felt his insides burn with anger at the absolute cheek of this cheap slut, but he sat down opposite them without a word.
Cupping the woman's face with his hands, Luka looked into the woman's eyes. "Miho-chan...listen to my words carefully." He said, as his eyes glowed slightly. "Hm? How'd ya know my name, handsome?" She slurred, and giggled more. "You told me. Just now. Don't you remember?" Luka said, his voice sounding like he was an old friend of the woman. "Huh? Oh yeaaaah. Now I remember..." Miho yawned a little, nearly falling asleep. "Miho. Listen to me now." Luka's voice sounded a little harsher, and his grasp on the woman's face hardened a little as he forced her to look into his eyes. "You and I are to be married, understand? You will devote yourself entirely to the safety of me and Kei. You are mine, and shall do whatever I say." Luka said, and as Miho stared into his eyes and listened intently to his words, she felt sleepy, as she felt all reason leaving her. She had taken some smack earlier, but this was different from the high she normally experienced. A tear slowly made its way down her cheek as she felt her will slipping away from her as she became this man's puppet. "I understand." She spoke, in a monotone tone of voice. "Good girl." Luka said, and stood up. He held out his hand, and the woman took hold of his hand. "You have a place, yes? Somewhere we can sleep?" Luka asked, and the woman nodded her head. "Lead the way." Luka ordered, and the woman lead both Luka and Kei out of the bar, and they began to walk down the street together. "I can't believe this. Of all people, why this junkie?" Kei hissed and he felt Luka take his hand and hold onto it. "This is for us. The police have started catching onto our activities. At the moment, they are searching for two loners. They won't be looking for a married man and his son." Luka said and smiled softly. Kei still didn't like it, and he kept on grumbling all the way to the woman's apartment.
Sho had found some candles and had lit them and placed them around the apartment. He decided to take a shower. He got undressed and under the water. Since the electricity had gotten turned off, the water was only lukewarm, but it would have to do. He soaped up, and rinsed off, before he began drying off. That was when he heard strange voices at the door. He heard the front door rattle as someone tried turning the doorknob from outside. Thinking it was his mother's dealer looking to get inside, Sho wrapped a towel around his waist. Walking out the hallway, he grabbed a baseball bat that was on the kitchen table and gripped it in his hands until his knuckles went white. "Come on. Batter up, mother fucker." He whispered, as he waited for the intruder to make their way inside, before he would start swinging.
"I don't like this idea, Luka! This is a really bad idea! I don't want to be living with this disgusting woman for a single second!" Kei huffed, and scowled as Luka had to open the door with the woman's keys, as the woman was too stoned out of her skull to do even that. As soon as the front door was open, Luka was confronted with someone standing there brandishing a bat. "SWING BATTERRRR!" The young man roared, and swung the bat at Luka's head. Luka dodged it easily. Miho poked her head into the apartment. "Sho-chan? It's mama-chan!" She giggled and pushed her way inside. Sho immediately pushed her behind him. "Who are these fuckers? Your dealers? Your johns?" He asked, and swung the bat again as Luka stepped forward. "Back up, mother fucker. Next time, I'll be hittin' a home run on your head!" Sho warned and Luka stood there, and glanced in Kei's direction. Kei's attention was solely on the young man who stood in their path. His eyes raked over his mostly unclothed body, eyeing the droplets of water that clung to his toned chest. 'Maybe this won't be so bad after all...' Kei thought, until Luka cleared his throat, and caused him to look away from the handsome distraction. "Miho-chan." Luka interrupted and Miho clapped her hands together. "Oh! That's right!" She laughed like a wacko and faced Sho. "This is the man I'm going to marry! Say hi to your new papa-chan!" She smiled like a drunken fool and the bat that Sho was clutching fell to the floor. "What the fuck." Sho swore, and stood there, towel around his waist, with an incredulous look on his face.
Once Sho had gotten dressed, they all sat inside the grotty apartment. Kei kept wrinkling his nose in disgust. "Is this a joke?" Sho asked and Luka shook his head. "No, son. It's not a joke, it's-" Luka was cut off when Sho let out harsh laughter. "I don't even know you, you old fart! I'm not your son!" Sho stood up in anger. Kei's eyes flashed in anger at hearing Luka being ridiculed, but Luka shook his head, and the younger blonde man dropped it. Sho faced his mother. "Of all the pathetic things you've done in your life, this takes the fucking cake! I thought you were trying to get clean! And now you say you're gonna marry some old geezer who looks old enough to be my grandpa!" Sho shouted, and Kei couldn't hold it any more. "Have some respect." He said, in a tone of voice which was silent and dangerous. Sho took in Kei's appearance and chuckled. "An old fart and a hippie. Your standards are low, even for you, mother." Sho said curtly, before he stormed off to his room, slaming the door behind him. "Miho-chan. For this to work, we must all work together here." Luka said, and got up, and went into another room, with Kei following closely at his heels. Miho sat there, her eyes emotionless and blank. Inside, her brain was trying desperately to fight what the mysterious man had done to her, but she wasn't strong enough. One thing she was certain of, was these two weren't normal. Right now, all she could think of was her and her son, and what they would have to do to live through this.
In the other room, Luka and Kei lay curled up on the bed. "What should we do about the son?" Kei asked and Luka sighed. "I was a little careless. I didn't account for her having a son." He admitted. "Should we do away with him?" Kei asked and Luka shook his head. "No, it's too risky. We need this to work, and if bodies start turning up, we're sure to be suspected." Luka said and stood up. "It's nearly dawn. As much as I hate to admit, this apartment won't provide adequate shelter from the sun's rays. And the place isn't even fit for rats to live in. I can't allow my angel to live in such a squalid place." He said, and Kei smiled, and took Luka's hand as he too, got to his feet. "So we're looking into a new place, then? But what about Miho and Sho?" Kei asked as he and Luka left the apartment. On leaving, they had to walk past Sho's bedroom. Kei and Luka, both having extra keen senses, could tell that the boy was inside, his ear to the wall, trying to listen to their conversation. "See you this evening, Sho-chan." Kei called out, and Sho blinked in surprise. 'How did they know I was listening'? Sho thought, as he curled up on his tattered bed as he let sleep claim him finally.
