Life and Death
Chapter 11: Explanations
Yuck's POV
He stood in front of me. His smirk added to this glare made him look insane and very dangerous. I started to get unsure about my plan. What would happen if he killed me? I would wake up, I wouldn't receive any physical damage. But of course... he would get more powerful and I'd get weaker if he won against me. I just had to win... for her. He twirled his knife playfully with his fingers, standing in a battle position. I myself got into one as well. No one moved. I was waiting for him to do the first attack and I guessed he was waiting for me to do the same.
Author's POV
Yuck was waiting and waiting, but nothing would happen. "Aren't you gonna make your move?", the green rabbit asked loudly.
"Aren't you gonna make yours?", was the loud response coming form the beast.
The green rabbit then understood. As long as he wasn't wearing himself out fighting n the dream world. It wouldn't be of any use for the beast to kill him. He wouldn't gain power. So it was either just standing there or making the first move himself. And the last option was the one he decided to go with. Yuck made his fists flame and ran yelling towards his beast, who vanished just as the rabbit was about to ram his fist into the beast's stomach. "What the...?"
"You missed!", the beast laughed manically behind him. Yuck turned around and received a punch into his face, which made him step back a little. He growled a deep growl and spit some blood out. "Face it, Yuck, you cannot win. Let me take this body and maybe I will think about mercy with your beloved Yin." "No way!", Yuck screamed and scratched the beast's cheek, right before skipping a kick. The green child received a slap and gave his beast a punch, skipped a kick and had his kick skipped as well. As dangerous as the beast was, in a fight they seemed to be equal. The beast slashed into Yuck's arm with the knife, leaving a wound. Yuck growled. "Why don't we solve this like gentlemen?", he grinned evilly and sent a fire-ray towards the beast. The mentioned one jumped to skip the attack, sending burning knives to the other. Yuck skipped them, just one got stuck in his shoulder. He pulled it out and threw it back at the other, who simply burnt it. The green rabbit then made a fire-nado , letting his alter ego get sucked into it.
The beast growled. "You really think you can defeat ME? I was meant to be the ruler of this universe! I was meant to destroy and kill!", he yelled. "So was I!" , Yuck yelled. The beast gave him a questioning look, then crossed his arms in front of his chest. "I thought you wouldn't want to ACCEPT that you are evil, a killing machine." Yuck threw a fist of Yuckcineration at the beast, only hurting his rival slightly. "You are right. I don't want to accept it. I don't want to accept that I wasn't meant to be nice." He punched the unexpecting beast. "...that you were right." another punch. "...that I was supposed to kill and hate." And another punch. "And that I wasn't supposed to love." He punched the beast once more, before it kicked Yuck to the wall. "But I can't deny who I am." "Well, then, why are you trying to protect your poor little Yinny, if you know that you are made to hate and not to love?", he smirked evilly, smacking Yuck with a burning fist. "Because..." Yuck pushed him to the ground. "...I also can't deny who I want to be." He kicked the beast into the stomach, only to get his foot grabbed and be slammed into another wall. Even though it really hurt he didn't show any pain or any weakness. "I wanna be her boyfriend..." He stood up. "I wanna be her hero..." He came closer to the beast. "I wanna be the one to save her brother..." He now stood in front of the beast. "And..." He slammed the other into the ground. "I wanna be the one..." He pulled out his sword and raised it "To make an alliance between light and darkness." He was about to ram the sword into the other's chest, before everything started shaking. The sword fell out of his hands and next to him and everything turned bright.
"Wake up! Yuck! Wake up!"
A voice yelled loudly.
Yuck opened his eyes. "Wh-what...?" He looked around surprised. "What happened...?" Then he suddenly remembered the fight, the conversation and the final ram he was about to make. "No.. NO! I almost had him!", he grabbed the person in front of him and shook that person. "Why did you-" He was cut off. "Yuck, there is no time now. Yin is in danger." It was Nameless. "Hurry!" "What...? Yin? Danger?" Nameless grabbed his shoulders and disappeared with him, only appearing at Nameless' house seconds later. Yin was lying tied up on the bed, struggling. "Let me go! It's no use!", she screamed. Yuck just stared at her in shock. "Don't worry, Yin... I' m here. I'll help you." He went to the bed Yin was in and started trying to untie her. He ignored all the questions in his head. Questions about Yin, Nameless, the beast and even himself. "Don't!", Nameless suddenly yelled. "Huh...?" "Don't untie her! She's suicidal!"
"Suicidal...?", yuck asked at looked at the beloved in front of him. She seemed to not even listen to them talking about her. She just struggled. "But how... what time is it?" Nameless answered quickly. "Around 9:30pm, why?" "Oh, god..." "What? "What's wrong?" "The beast didn't bluff! He really manipulated her!", the rabbit yelled, fighting back tears. "He made her try to kill herself! Yin! Snap out of it! You don't want to die! You want to live and make your brother live!" Yin didn't listen to him, she continued to struggle against the tight ropes. "Please...", Yuck begged, tears escaping his eyes.
He then looked at her and pressed a soft and warm kiss onto her lips. It calmed her down. She stopped struggling and started blushing. Her heart beat faster than ever before as Yuck let his tongue enter her mouth, his eyes closed, his cheeks red. Yin soon realized how much she enjoyed the kiss and kissed back, her eyes closing and her tongue playing with Yuck's inside their mouths. The ropes disappeared and they wrapped their arms tightly around each other, Yuck lying his love backwards on the bed, getting on top of her. Their bodies were really close to each other as they enjoyed each other's warmth. Then their lips broke apart and they stared into each other's eyes, both of them panting a little.
Yuck stroked Yin's cheek, breathing onto her lips. "Yin, don't ever think about hurting yourself... I couldn't take it... I love you..." Yin smiled happily, her eyes sparkling with life, joy and love. "I promise, Yuck... and... I love you too..." the girl snuggled to the chest of her lover, taking his scent in, loving it, loving him.
Nameless stood in the corner of the room, probably smiling happily. "Two souls found each other...", they whispered. Then the cloaked person talked louder to get the two love dove's attention. " I'm really sorry to interrupt you two, but we need to talk. The beast is not defeated yet and I'm sure there are a lot of questions to answer and things to do." "The beast...?", Yin asked. "It's kind of a long story, honey..." Yin's eyes shot open and she blushed hardly as getting her first nickname by Yuck. Her first REAL nickname. Yuck chuckled warmly and kissed the girl's forehead. Nameless led them to a round table with some chairs around it. "Have a seat. ", the person offered and sat on one of the chairs. Yin and Yuck sat down as well. "Yuck, I think you should start by telling everything you know about the beast. Please start from the beginning so your girlfriend understands everything as well." The rabbits blushed at Nameless mentioning Yin being Yuck's girlfriend.
"Well, okay..." The green one started. "I first really met the beast when I was asleep after we got out of the cave. He was already a bloodthirsty maniac and said that he was first within Yin and went into me after I was created. He is trying to take over my body and can only do mental harm, not physical one. But he also can manipulate people to do whatever the hell he wants them to do." He glanced at Yin. "I guess he was the one who made you try to kill yourself, because he told me when the manipulation, he put on you, would take effect and it fit the timing you started to become all suicidal perfectly. I never heard him talk to me at day, only when I was asleep. I still don't know why he chose this body to do his evil wantings..."
"Well, I think I can bring light into this whole situation.", Nameless said. "You see, I am pretty sure that Yin's dream has something to do with him."
"What dream?", Yuck asked, looking at his girlfriend.
"Well... some voices told me that I'd die in another language that turned out to be Latin.", I was really scared..." She received a comforting hug from Yuck.
"I think", Nameless continued. "That the beast is able to enter other people's dreams, not only yours, Yuck. He entered Yin's dream to manipulate her to do damage to herself. And he spoke in Latin to scare her more, so she'd believe more in it. Mental manipulation doesn't work if the victim isn't scared or doesn't have the feeling they are supposed to have. Oh and Yuck. He chose you to take control over, because you are supposed to be made only of bad traits, a reason for him which is why your mind would be easier to manipulate to do bad things, like he did with you when you killed Yang. What he didn't expect was that you already developed enough on your own without yin or Yang to create your own feelings as well. Such a feeling as the love you share for Yin or a feeling like the strength you have to fight on and on until you reach your goal."
"I don't have that strength.", Yuck argued with Nameless, while nuzzling Yin's pink fur.
"Oh, really? Who didn't stop fighting until his enemies were defeated? Who didn't stop writing letters until he got an answer? Who didn't stop believing that there's a chance to win against the beast? And who... who didn't stop getting his crush's attention until she was finally his? That was you. You aren't just a mix of bad traits and hate. You are a person.", Nameless told him, the voice completely calm, but getting a little louder while talking.
"He or She is right, Yuck. You do have that strength." She looked at the cloaked figure. "But... if the beast lives inside Yuck, how come he could get into my dream?"
"Well, I think I know the answer to that as well. You see, the beast doesn't really LIVE inside Yuck. He just tries to convince his body and his work in there had already gotten pretty far, so he won't change the person anymore. But he doesn't really live inside his mind. He lives on another level of dimensions and life. He lives on the level of dreams and death."
Yuck and Yin were equally shocked. There was a creature that could enter everyone's mind and talk to everyone who was no longer alive. "...Death and dreams are on the same level...?" Yin asked, getting a nod in response. "Wow... " Yuck then said something, shock still in his voice. "I just remembered something... A few hours ago I was about to fall unconscious... I saw a blue light and... I heard Yang's voice. I thought I was going to meet him in my dream. Instead.. .there was the beast."
Nameless nodded understanding, they seemed to be thinking for a couple of minutes before answering. "Yang was trying to reach you to make a connection to you, but the beast blocked him before he could, so you wouldn't get to know or hear anything that might make it harder for the beast to take over your body and mind. Sadly, I don't know what Yang would've wanted to say to you..."
"Isn't there any way to stop him?", Yin asked.
"Yes, there is." Yuck answered. "I almost defeated him in my dream last time I slept, I will just dream again and defeat him again."
"That's not possible anymore."
"huh?"
"With the battle you and the beast had he was able to make you several wounds, so your mind got weaker. It's too dangerous to try again. If he hurts you again, he might take over your body and hurt Yin. There's only one way you could possibly defeat him."
"What way?", Yin and Yuck asked at the same time.
"You two have to sleep together."
Mwahaha... I'll stop here, at least for now ;3
