(This is a fanfiction based on the book "The Forger" by Shannon Neprily and the anime Trinity Blood, which I also do not own; its owned by Sunao Yoshida and Kiyo Kyujo, they're geniuses!) By: Joybug Yaoi Rated M for language and possible sexual scenes M/M Once again, I don't own the Forger or its characters, nor do I own Trinity Blood, I just like both of them very much.
I hope you enjoy: ) Ch 8

"Hell, you say? Hell is merely a frame of mind," A slithering snaky voice whispered in Torian's small shell of an ear. Long thin fingers ghosted over his shoulders, making his blood run cold.

Torian whipped around, glaring at the blonde haired man that had somehow slipped under his defenses easily.

"Nosy little fucker aren't you?" Torian snarled, baring his teeth at the man that smelled strangely similar to Abel only darker in intent.

"Hiding behind your words will not ease the pain in your stomach. Come with me and I will show you a feast to be reckoned with!"

"In exchange for my services, right? Been there. I don't like how you stink, so you can run along and try to get someone else to be your pawn," Torian could really feel the empty space on his finger right now, the space where there was once a ring to protect him. He clenched his fist, ready to fight tooth and nail to escape.

"I haven't the time to argue with you right now. I will be back for you."

Torian just stood there stupidly, trying to figure out exactly what had just happened. He was glad the creature had walked away. He could sense the power within him and it was nothing that he could deal with on his own. He would need Abel... when had he started thinking of the priest as someone to be relied on?

Torian frowned. Things were going to get a lot harder from here on in.

Author notes:

The Forger is now available through for anyone interested. I'm so excited, I'm going to buy 3 copies and make my friend sign all of them! One for me to read and the other to hoard until they're worth tons of money! LOL!

I've been typing as quickly as I can, I hope everyone is enjoying the story so far. :)

Let me know what you think.
