A/N: Yesh, I am alive. Here ish the second chappy. I don't own SM. I own the band name, though :P It was hard to think up a name for em, considering "Three Lights" didn't fit the profile of who they were. Also, the only SM characters that are going to be used in this story are Seiya, Yaten, Taiki, Usagi, Ami, Minako, Haruka, Micheru and Mamoru. Maybe. I don't know.
Vampyr
Chapter 1: Rock Idols
"Have you heard of the new group that's come out?" A girl with long blonde hair asked her two girlfriends. Her dark blue eyes held stars in them.
"Minako-chan, you mean the group called 'Obscurity Three'?" A girl with short blue hair and blue eyes asked, blushing. Minako nodded. Their other friend was silent. Sipping her coffee, she sighed heavily. Her blonde hair was pulled back into two odangos. Her sapphire eyes reflected sorrow.
"Usagi-chan, what's wrong?" Minako asked, concerned for her friend.
"Mamoru broke up with me last night…" Usagi whispered, and Ami looked at her in shock, as did Minako. Mamoru was Usagi's life.
"Doshte?" Ami asked.
"He has too much to deal with; the band, his college life, and apparently I'm taking away from his social life, and any chances of him getting big…He basically doesn't want to be tied down, nor does he want competition with me," Usagi said in a dull voice.
"Nani? Are you going to be ok tonight?" both girls asked, amazed at Mamoru's behavior. Usagi stood up, and grabbed her jacket. She smiled weakly.
"It's ok. I'll see you guys at 9 at the club, ok?" She asked, waving good-bye to them. She walked out, and left her two best friends to sit there and ponder.
"I hope she'll be alright" Ami said, bringing her fingers to her chin.
"Me too" Minako agreed. She looked outside, and both girls noticed that the sunlight was dying out, just as their friend's emotions were. But she would never let them know it. Usagi had always kept to herself her emotions. The sun soon set, and night was upon them.
Seiya awoke to the feeling of the sun leaving for the night. He stretched, finding his room extremely comfortable. He was the only one that slept on a bed in their new home. Taiki and Yaten wanted to stick to the trusty comfort of their caskets.
He got up, and felt the insatiable hunger that tore at him well up in his stomach. Sighing, he clothes himself in all black, and grabbed his jacket. Contrary to popular belief, vampires could feel cold. It seemed to be all Seiya felt lately. Warmth was something he couldn't hope to have after so long.
Realizing his sudden weakness, Seiya growled. What was wrong with him?
I need blood…
Exiting the apartment, Seiya headed for the park. There was always bound to be some dead beat there that no one would miss if he killed them. All of a sudden, a scent so chaste filled his nostrils, and it made him stop dead in his tracks.
What in the world?
He followed the scent, trying to find the source of such purity. He could feel small raindrops on his shirt, but paid no attention. He was more interested in the scent of such magnificent purity.
He rounded the corner, finding no one there.
Nani? Was the scent of someone who was here? That strong!
Sighing, Seiya did his best to follow the scent, but found he couldn't. He shrugged his shoulders. He needed blood, and any would do at this point. Spotting a young punkette mugging a much younger girl, Seiya smiled. He enjoyed the blood of punks. For what reason, he could not answer. Maybe it was that it had adrenaline that pushed the generation. Walking up to the young man, Seiya smiled his charming smile. The punkette smiled dangerously back, and licked her lips. Seiya walked with her to a back alley, and let his true character loose. The girl's screams were never heard.
"You had it coming," Seiya said, taking the money from the corpse. He walked over to the child, and handed it back to her. She smiled, thanked him, and was off. Normally, Seiya wouldn't do this kind of thing, but he was feeling generous after the sweet scent of purity.
He met up with his two brothers at a local club. They all found that they enjoyed this club. It was dark, the people listened the kind of music that they were singing, and they didn't hound them, like other music genre fans. It was as if they understood. Seiya went to his normal spot, waiting on the performances to begin. Taiki and Yaten found their seats as well. They were in the line up tonight, for there was a multi-gig going on; not that they minded. Unsigned bands were going to perform in a competition, and the winners would be guaranteed a record deal. They were only there to close, since they already had one.
"You know, I wish people were more like this centuries ago," Yaten commented. Taiki nodded.
"I must agree. They look like us, don't they? But they aren't"
"It's because they think that our kind are misunderstood. And I must say that I do agree with that," Seiya added. "And they like our music."
The other two nodded. They sat for a while, listening to the various bands coming onstage. Some were good, some were bad.
"Wow," Taiki commented, impressed with the last group.
"Their timing was off," Yaten criticized, as he always did. Seiya said nothing, his nostrils taking in that same sweet innocent intoxication from before. It was apparent Taiki and Yaten smelt it also. But it was different this time. It was a mix of three. Their eyes searched the club, not finding the sources. Their heads darted towards the stage.
"There is no real way to introduce the next group. What can we say? They're young, beautiful, and definitely know how to rock! Inducement!"
The three of them stared in shock as three women took center stage. The drummer and bassist were contained in the background. Taiki stared at the blue haired angel. She sat at a keyboard, her aquamarine eyes determined. She was dressed in a black tank over a tight fitting dark blue blouse. She also wore slim black boots. Her black jeans were tight fitting, and she completely captivated Taiki. He couldn't move.
Yaten was entranced by the blonde beauty that held an electric guitar in her hands. Her long hair went to her mid thighs, and was pulled back at the top in a single black bow. Her own blue eyes were resolute. What she wore was similar to her piano playing comrade. The only difference was that she wore a dark orange undershirt. Yaten didn't want to admit it, but she was shining a purity that was like no other.
If Seiya still had a beating heart, it would have stopped at that very moment he laid eyes on the golden haired seraph. Her sapphire eyes were a little dull, signifying something had happened to her. He wanted to caress her long neck, if just to comfort her. She wore a tight fitting black shirt, studded with the design of a butterfly. Her tight fitting dark blue jeans were ripped at the bottom, revealing slim black boots, the same as her two friends. She held an electric guitar in her hands as well, and all three of them were in front of microphones.
"Beautiful" All of them said at once, and then looked at each other. Shrugging, they watched the performance. They sounded like sirens, their voices holding so much innocence, and purity, that not even Yaten could criticize them. The last song was about to come up, and the one Seiya had his eye on took the center stage, setting her guitar gently on the floor. She walked back up to one of the microphones, and nodded at the other two girls, and the two in the shadows. It was obvious that she was the lead vocal, for Seiya could hear her voice more than the other two. She looked at the audience, and for a single second, her eyes locked with his.
He saw pain and sorrow in her eyes, if only for one instant. She waited as the music played, and began singing.
Is this real enough for you?
You are so confused.
Now that you decided to stay,
We'll remain together.
You can't abandon me,
You belong to me.
Breathe in and take my life in you
No longer myself only you.
There's no escaping me my love.
Surrender
Darling, there's no
sense in running You can't abandon me Breathe in and take my life in you Breathe
in and take my life in you
You know I will find you
Everything is perfect
now
We can live forever
You belong
me
No longer myself only
you
There's no escaping me, my love
Surrender
No longer myself only you
There's no
escaping me, my love
Surrender
(Evanescence-Surrender)
The song ended, and Seiya was entranced. Her music was haunting, as if it would always be in the back of his mind. She sounded so perfect, it was scary. They bowed, and the three men stood, giving them a standing ovation. Onlookers followed suite, and soon everyone was standing.
Seiya and his brothers looked at one another, and headed towards the stage after the girls went off. They set up, purposefully stalling until they could take their seats. Taiki took his seat behind the keyboard, while Yaten settled himself behind the drums. Seiya took his guitar, and strapped it on, secretly nervous. He didn't doubt that the other two were as well. The girls' scents were still lingering. They looked around the audience, finding the three girls in the back, like they had been. They started playing their music, and everyone was deathly quiet. The trio of girls looked at the men onstage.
"Hey, they're pretty hot," Minako whispered to Ami, who was blushing as she nodded. Usagi didn't speak, but stared at the man with the electric guitar. He seemed familiar, yet she knew she had never met him. She felt a chill go down her spine as his eyes once more found hers. They were full of void and indifference.
"Men like them wouldn't give us a second glance," Usagi then said to the other two, earning odd stares from them. "I'm out."
"Wait, at least wait until this song is over!" Minako urged. "It's Obscurity Three, for crying out loud!"
"It'd be rude to just leave," Ami agreed. "Plus, we don't know who won the record deal."
"Alright, fine," Usagi said reluctantly.
The song played, and the club was filled with the sounds of more hauntingly perfect sounds of the keyboard.
I
woke up today I
woke up today I
woke up today I'm never crossing that line I am on my
own I'm never crossing that line I'm never crossing that line
Expecting to find all that I sought
And climb the
mountains of the life I bought
Finally I'm at the top of every
hierarchy
Unfortunately there is no one left
But me
To a world that's ground to dust, dirt and stone
I'm
the king upon this withering throne
I ruled every forest, every
mountain, every sea
Now there're but ruins left to rule for
me
And... you see, it beckons me;
Life turned its back on
us
How could you just agree?
...how? I just don't see...
To a world devoid of forests and trees
Drained of
every ocean, every sea
Just like a useless brick upon the
shore
The morning after the storm
That swept the bridge
away
Relentless tide
No anger
Just this relentless time
That
calls us all on
But...
Leaving
this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained
throne
I rule the ruins and wrecks
And the dust, dirt and
stone
I rule rage rod and rattling of bones
I am all alone
Everything is gone
Stuck forever
here
Already cold
Leaving
this world behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained
throne...
Leaving this world
behind
I will stay on my own
On this bloodstained throne
I
rule the ruins and wrecks
And the dirt and the dust and the
stone
I'm the ruler of rage rod and rust
And the rattling of
bones
Ruler of ruin...
(Pain of Salvation-"Iter Impius")
It shot through Usagi's heart as he looked at her as he sang the beautiful song. She couldn't move anymore. It was what she felt inside at the moment. Cold and Lonely.
"Do you feel the same?" She whispered, not knowing he heard the words as they escaped her lips.
