KuroFai The Dragon and His Boy chapter 1

I don't own the characters in this story... I only own this idea. It's going to be KuroFai obviously but not right away. Please be , this story will be AU. Anyway, I'm sure you're wanting to get to the story so I'll let you do that now.

----------

A young blond man was walking down a street. He was concentrating deeply on what was going on and wondering why he was hated so much, or he at least must be hated so much to have such a life put in front of him. When he'd been very young his twin brother had died of cancer and then his life had gotten much worse when at the age of 16 his parents had been murdered before his very eyes.

What's worse, the murderer was about to do the same to him, and he would have preferred that as well, when he got a good look at the boy. His blue eyes and sun-kissed hair had intrigued him. "I'll spare you," He sneered "But, of course, there's a price. You now belong to me." Fai sighed as he remembered that night. He was so terrified of this man, and he still was. His name was Ashura, and, just as he'd said, he'd spared Fai's life, but the price was so great that Fai really wished he hadn't.

Fai had been forced to be Ashura's lover. Of course, thousands of people had told him, not knowing the details of how they'd gotten together, that they'd love to be in Fai's shoes. Ashura was a well-known actor, and of course had billions and billions of dollars at his disposal. Fai never was one to go for a man with money and that's how he got where he is now. For two years he'd put up with Ashura, too afraid to try and defy him, until finally, one day when Ashura had come home drunk, Fai took his chance and fled.

He was now on the streets, running still from Ashura, and hoping that Ashura wouldn't be just around the corner. Fai was just looking around a corner, making sure the coast was clear when he heard some people talking. Curious, he listened in. It didn't make sense to him. "Yeah, that beast still won't eat when people are around."

"No kidding? We aren't going to get any money from it that way."

"You're telling me. How are we supposed to even get pictures if it won't move from it's position and just looks like a huge rock or something?" That was all Fai heard before someone came up from behind him, hitting him hard and turning his world black.

Fai woke again a while later. He had no idea how long it had been, or even where he was. The room was so dark and black that Fai couldn't even see his hand when he knew he was waving it right in front of his face. "Great. Now I've gotten kidnapped... I'm sure they'll just send me back to Ashura." Fai shivered at that thought. "No! I won't go back to him! I won't!" It was then that Fai remembered the pocket knife that Ashura had always insisted he carry around.

He pulled it out of his pocket, flipping it open and lifting it high up in the air. "This is better than going with Ashura... besides, there's nothing left for me in this world." He then plunged it towards his chest, closing his eyes to brace himself for the pain that he was sure to feel.

He opened his eyes in surprise. His hand had been stopped, he was sure that he'd been the only one in this room, but he obviously wasn't. He felt a long, scaley.... something on his arm and he wasn't sure what to do. He was too surprised to panic, but he was panting louder and he felt his heart beating a bit faster than normal.

It was then that he was even more surprised. The... whatever it was, shifted itself so that it was in a good position and squeezed his hand to make him drop the knife. He heard it clink against the floor and then the scaley thing slid away from his hand. He looked around, but he still couldn't see anything. Before he could move however, the door opened and light filled the room as a switch was flicked on.

"Well Well, it looks like our little prisoner has awoken... and you've met our... pet." He sneered. He then walked in, placing a plate of food in front of Fai. Fai looked up at him and saw a dead lamb in his other hand.

"What's that for?"

"Well, our pet of course. He's got to eat too." He then chucked the lamb behind Fai. Fai turned in the direction and saw a silver cage for the first time. That wasn't what caught his attention though. The cage was huge, about the size of an average sized living room, but the creature inside it was what really surprised him.

It was lieing down, it's face blocked from the side by it's paws and it was as big as the cage it was in. If it's that big while lieing down I'm not sure I want to see how big it is when it's standing up. The person who had given him his food saw Fai's expression and smirked. "A beauty aint he? I'm sure you won't believe me even if I tell you but, he's a dragon. He refuses to move at all when people or objects are in here with it though so we haven't been able to get any money off of him." Fai looked at the man disbelieving before looking back.

Now that he looked closer at it, it didn't actually look all that scary. It was pure black but he almost felt............ safe around it. It was then that his eyes were drawn to it's tail. He inched close to it and gently picked the tail up. His eyes widened. That's the same texture as the thing that stopped me... could it be.... did the dragon stop me from killing myself?? But.... why?? Why would this dragon care? It's not like it's starving or anything...

Fai continued to think this through, not even realizing that the man had left him be with the lights on, having forgotten to shut them off. He looked around then and, seeing they were alone, began to eat his mediocre meal. He continued to think when he heard something behind him. He turned just in time to see the tail pick up the lamb and drop it in the dragon's mouth with ease. It almost looked like the dragon did it lazily.

Fai blinked. He finished his meal and walked over to the dragon. "Why did you stop me?" He asked when he was close to it's head. No response. It was then that Fai realized that the dragon's eyes were closed and he looked as if he'd been carved out of stone. "Well... why is it that you seem so... I don't know.. comfortable around me? The man said you refused to move when people were around.. yet.. you saved me and even ate in front of me.."

Again, the dragon refused to even move. Fai wondered then if the dragon either couldn't hear or understand him. He sighed deeply then and saw his knife on the floor. Maybe the dragon doesn't care?? Maybe it saved me by mistake and it's regretting it now.. could that be why it's not answering me? Fai sighed again and walked over to the knife. He picked it up again, but before he could even lift it up he felt the dragon's tail on his arm again. He looked at it and, sure enough, it was the dragon's tail, gently telling him to stop by the looks of it.

Fai looked at the dragon and saw that it hadn't even moved other than it's tail. He folded up the knife and put it in his pocket. "How did you know I was about to try again?" Again, the dragon didn't respond. Fai was beginning to get discouraged. He couldn't understand this dragon. It saved him, but then it wouldn't even talk to him?? Or even look at him? Or anything? It was quite annoying.

Then the dragon poked him gently with his tail, to get his attention. Fai looked at the tail and saw it pointing up at the ceiling. Fai looked in the direction it was pointing and his eyes widened. "That's why you are ignoring me huh? There's a camera in here watching us!" Fai knew the dragon wouldn't respond but he thought the dragon almost seemed excited that he'd figured it out so quick.

Fai looked around and saw that there were some boxes. He piled the boxes up on each other underneath where the camera was and then carefully climbed up. Once he was on top he went to the camera and pulled the knife out of his pocket again. He then stabbed the camera and pulled hard so that it broke. "There!" He said and it was then that he was surprised.

"Good Job. No one has ever even bothered to try and listen to me if I didn't talk." Fai gasped and looked towards the dragon. It hadn't moved but the voice had been deep and enchanting, leaving Fai without a doubt that the dragon had just spoken. He carefully climbed down so he wouldn't kill himself before he turned back to the dragon again.

"Thanks." Fai whispered. He didn't know why, but he wasn't scared of the dragon before him. "Why did you stop me anyway?"

"Well, that's a simple one. I sensed your pure soul and knew it would be a waste if you threw your life away now." Fai walked close to the dragon's head and sat down.

"I see. That makes sense I guess... thank you."

The dragon surprised him then by smiling gently. He then lifted his head up gently, turned towards Fai, and gently opened his delicate eyes. Fai's breath was taken away at the sight. His eyes were a beautiful crimson colour that Fai had never seen before. He was sure that the colour would never be able to be duplicated in a million years. "Tell me... why did you want to take your life anyway?" The dragon before him purred.

"Well, I wanted to get away from this man that insists on calling me his boyfriend. I can't stand him. He's a murderer and he's very abusive. He killed my parents right in front of me and then forced himself upon me." Fai shivered. "He's horrible. I was running from him when these guys kidnapped me and I was sure they'd just sell me back to him."

The dragon purred comfortingly then, wrapping it's tail gently around him. "I won't let them hurt you. I promise." Fai sighed gently and relaxed. It was then that he realized that he was quite tired. The dragon saw this and smiled. He nuzzled Fai gently through the bars before making his tail a bit of a bed. "Sleep." He commanded softly, and Fai couldn't resist. He lied down and fell asleep, the dragon watching over him for a bit before going to sleep himself.
