Disclaimer: Don't ownie, end of story. If I did I'd make Kyo do... naughty things with me xD I don't own Crawling by Linkin Park either. But I do own this story and Darksin.
This is pretty much a fic of Yuya becoming dangerous after she can't take any more pressure or pain. She snaps under it all and becomes a demon, much like I did in my other fic Inner Self. I'd always wanted to see Yuya get stronger or vicious so yeah, that's my inspiration. The plot in this story will be a lot different from Inner Self though.

Crawling in my skin
These wounds they will not heal
Fear is how I fall
Confusing what is real
Lyrics from "Crawling" by Linkin Park
Crawling to Darkness
Narrative - Yuya
I had always thought I was a nice and mature girl. I thought nobody could hold a grudge against me in any way. My brother Nozomu taught me that as long as I was polite and respectful of others, that they'd do the same. Only... I was proved wrong on many occasions because of one demon. He was never kind to me at all and he only thought of me as a servant. A person could go crazy after enduring treatment like that for such a time. Fortunately for him, I have a strong spirit but I don't know how much of this I can possibly take anymore.
Normal POV
It was a nice, sunny and breezy day. Yuya was chatting with Mahiro and Okuni on 'girl' stuff. Kyo, Yukimura, and Bontenmaru were drinking sake... as usual. Akira was listening to the sounds of the woods, which seemed to calm him. Akari was hanging around Kyo, still having notions about being his wife. Benitora had to attend important business being the Shogun, so he couldn't be around at the moment. Sasuke was hanging with Kotaru for a few hours, but he'd be back.
"So Yuya, have you been thinking about you know who lately?" Okuni asked knowingly.
Yuya blushed deeply. "Uhhmm I don't know what you're talking about" she lied.
"Don't deny it Yuya, you love Kyo don't you?" Mahiro pressed on with a giggle.
Okuni was smiling at this point. She had been trying to hook Yuya up with Kyo for awhile now. She just loved to play matchmaker. "I think I'll tell him" she announced proudly.
"No Okuni! I'm afraid he won't...erm..." Yuya broke off.
"Don't worry Yuya, I have a good feeling about this." Okuni replied anxiously.
Okuni was about to head off and tell Kyo everything, when all of a sudden, Kyo barked out "Hey Dogface! get us some more sake!" Yuya sighed heavily and ventured to where the sake was kept. She wondered how he would feel if he was in her position, but then again, it would seem pretty pathetic for a demon to be a servant.
Yuya prodded lightly in her tabi back to Kyo's group, setting down the sake carefully. They all looked at her thoughtfully, but Kyo had an expression that screamed a bored nature. Yuya somehow resisted uttering a nasty retort. Kyo had always acted that same way, what was the point of trying to reason with him? She travelled back towards Okuni and Mahiro with a sad smile.
"Don't be like that Yuya, it's okay." Mahiro comforted.
"Yeah, I mean I seriously doubt he means to be that way. Probably just to cover up any emotion from the others." Okuni joined in.
"Thanks" Yuya mumbled. "Do you really think he cares for me more than just as a servant?"
"Of course, why else would he keep you around him for so long?" they chorused.
Yuya smiled a genuine, serene smile. She could always count on others that met up with Kyo to cheer her up. Later that day, she got up and started to Kyo's group. She was hearing voices from them all and decided to listen in on the conversation. So she hid behind a nearby bush, and watched. It turns out they were speaking about her and she was immediately intrigued. What could they be conversing about me for? Yuya thought.
"Yuya certainly is a most interesting girl, she never stops amusing me." Yukimura stated.
Bontenmaru joined in "I have to agree, she is unnaturally strong in her own way." Next to them, there was a snort.
Kyo, the owner of the snort, replied "Puh-lease, if she's so strong then why do I always need to save her?" he demanded. "She's usually useless to me unless she's around to get me sake." Yuya balled her hands into fists after hearing Kyo's share of information.
"I really don't think you mean that Kyo" Yukimura said. "You probably wouldn't have saved her in her times of need if you actually thought that."
Kyo growled "Yukimura, get off my case! She means nothing to me but a slave! Besides...she's just an annoying, underdeveloped, bitch that doesn't know when to start cooperating around me without shutting her mouth! She's just lucky I let her live, in fact I don't even think she deserved to live ever."
Yuya was utterly shocked, gritting her teeth and digging into her palms by the last of his statement. Oh, she would make him pay dearly for that! But she would do it secretly, and leave him for the rest of her days. She was trapped by him for so long, but there was nothing holding her back now. He wished for her to never exist. Baka Akuma Yuya shouted in her mind. She gathered all her belongings of good use, and started her journey to prove to him that she didn't need him to protect her. She didn't need anyone.
After a couple hours...
Where had Yuya gone? Okuni thought. It had been hours since she was last seen. Could it be Kyo's doing? Had he broken her heart by his words? Yuya was a strong girl, so what could he have possibly said?
She announced to the others that Yuya was missing. Akira, Bontenmaru, and Yukimura had a mild look of worry. Mahiro and Akari's were of complete shock and Kyo's was a look of unemotion. I'm sure the woman will come back eventually Kyo was thinking holding back the worry. They all waited a few more hours until it had gotten dark, everyone was concerned for her by then. Kyo still wore the same expression only on the inside, he was really disturbed. Why did she leave? Or did someone take her? Kyo sought to find out.
With Yuya
"Baka, BAKA!" she yelled. She has had enough of this. Whatever she did to possibly deserve this was beyond her. Walking along a meadow, she suddenly spotted an area of dark aura. Fearful, she asked "Who's there?" The black mass formed into a black figure. "Do you want to be strong? Stronger than all of those fools?" it asked. Yuya shook her head slightly, she would make at least Kyo pay. "Do not fear me child, for I will be your guide through all this. I see how you are unappreciated." The figure opened its eyes revealing deep crimson orbs.
Yuya was a bit scared she admitted, but calmed as soon as it spoke its last sentence. "Yes, could you please help me? May I ask your name?" she wondered innocently. The bodily form nodded. "My name is Darksin, and I'm a demon at your service. I can teach you all the dark arts of us demons if you wish. It may take a few years though, so you probably cannot take revenge until then." Darksin murmured. Yuya smiled brightly at the kind demon, even though it certainly didn't look kind on the outside, she was proved wrong. Darksin levitated toward her, smirking at her "You shine so much when you are happy. So beautiful. You're not ugly in any way like he says" Yuya blushed at his words and hugged him. "Oh Darksin, you're so nice to me. I'd be happy to accompany you wherever!" Darksin caressed her cheek tenderly. He wondered how such a gentle and caring being could be so mistreated in her prime. He would surely expose Demon Eyes Kyo for the fibber he really is. He wasn't fooled by his lies.
"Together we will make them all pay" Darksin said. "We will show them how strong you can be. Also if you ever needed, we could merge together and be even more powerful."
"We can merge?" Yuya asked curiously.
"Sure, nothing's that impossible for me." Darksin replied.
Yuya smiled once more. This was her lucky day. Her pleas of strength were answered. "Come along then, we have much to do. Get on my back." Darksin smiled with her. Yuya crawled upon his dark but not uncomfortable backside. Darksin sprouted demonic wings to go perfectly with his body and they flew somewhere far off. She was taken to a glorious looking space of land nearby to a hot spring. "This is where you shall train. Also you may have noticed that hot spring. You can take a break there whenever you like."
"Oh thank you! I'll get started training right away!" Yuya gleefully chided. Darksin smirked at her courageousness and willing. She sure is something he thought. That whole day, they practiced some magic and sword techniques and Yuya was doing considerably well. She didn't feel pressured by her training or his presence. Wonderful.

A/N: R&R. Next chappie will be up shortly. Don't hate me for making Kyo act that way ) he still cares for her deep inside. Also, I'm not making this a Darksin and Yuya pairing so don't yell bout Yuya belonging to Kyo cuz I know that XD this is gonna be another KyoxYuya down the road. I'm hoping to get Yuya to meet Kyo and the others again in the next chapter. The reason Darksin is so nice to Yuya is because I believe there are good demons in addition to the bad ones in this world. This may turn out to be like Different Circumstances by fluffy-rakia or The Problem by Fluffy1322 because I like the plots and ideas of them.
