"The only thing I ever expected out of you Obyzouth was for you to act
alive every now and then."

Yaten gazed out of the window on the local city bus, the
reflection of her lime green eyes staring straight back at her. She sighed and
leaned her cheek against her fist, an obvious sign of boredom. She stared at
the old graffiti as if it were just another masterpiece of pollution in the
world. "You're simply fascinated by the outside world aren't you?"
Yaten jerked her head up to Haruka, the question interrupting her momentary
bliss.
Give me one good reason why I shouldn't be, she mentally said. But she
just looked up at Haruka, a frown marring her lips. "No," she stiffly
answered verbally. Haruka looked down at her and lifted an eyebrow in question.
"Why so cold, doll?" Yaten snorted.
"If she's around you I could see why. What she sees of the world should be
cherished – nothing ever lasts too long. Around here at least it doesn't."
Haruka blinked and lifted her head, looking around. "Excuse me, did I
intrude upon your conversation?" Haruka's eyes fell upon a tall, lanky
figure.
"And who are you?" The
stranger smirked, bright orange bangs falling in his eyes. He threw back long
braids of hair over his shoulder.
"Do names matter? Right now is all I'm know as to you is the bastard who
interrupted the conversation that was going absolutely nowhere."
"Suits you enough," Haruka said bitterly, a scowl crossing over her
facial features. Yaten smiled at the sarcasm and stared up at him.
"Indeed," he said.
"What's your name?" The stranger looked down at Yaten.
"Michael, it's my real and nickname for you junkies," he said quietly
and averted his eyes to staring out the window.
"You look vaguely familiar," Yaten said. Michael frowned and shrugged
lazily.
"I don't understand how," he lied. "I'm never around here."
"I don't see where you see a resemblance to anybody else, Obyzouth."
"But I do," Yaten pressed. "He looks like Dommiel." Michael
ground his teeth together.
"I'll be damned if I do." Yaten bit her lip and narrowed her
eyes.
"Why are you getting so worked up over it anyway?" Michael looked up
at Haruka.
"You must seriously not know what the meaning of being polite is."
"And you do?" Haruka clenched her fist. Michael smirked.
"No, I don't. But at least I admit it."
"Ne, Michael," Yaten waited until she gained his full attention.
"If you're not around here, how would you know what Dommiel looks like in
the first place?" Michael winced.
"Just drop it," he muttered.
"No I wont drop it, damnit!" Michael blinked.
Never ignore a heroin abusers words, he mentally reminded himself.
"Alright, alright, I'll talk. You're making me feel like in a goddamn
confessional," he muttered. He glared at Haruka one more time before staring
at Yaten. "He's my little brother. Period."
"You liar," Haruka snapped.
"What's there to lie about?" He turned his eyes back to the outside
world that seemed to give him too much pain than he had ever asked for.
"He never mentioned you," Yaten said.
"There was nothing to mention."
"I want proof that you're his older brother," Haruka snapped out.
Michael simply sighed.
"I was the one who forced speed into his body, and I guess it was more
potent than I expected and he wanted it over and over again. I was never
around, and to be honest, his other brother* found out and was tempted to tell
mom and dad about it," he said. He toyed with one of the many braids in
his hair. "I guess he did, it was beyond both Dommiel and I how both mom and
dad found out, but they did, and kicked him out of the house. He really had no
place to go. The only people he knew were oneshot dealers. But all in all, he
had managed to meet up with Asmodeus – or X as you all so affectionately called
him – and gained a place to stay through him. That's when he met Lady Caine and
hated her right from day one*." Haruka stuttered for a minute and then
clamped her mouth shut. "Is that suitable enough for you?" he asked
bitterly. Haruka grunted and just sat down, crossing her arms.
"Where are you from?"
"I'm from way across the country*." Yaten bit her lip.
"Do you have a place to stay?" Michael shook his head. "You can
stay wi-"
"Obyzouth, both you and I know that Hakael wouldn't-"
"Shut up," Yaten snapped at Haruka. "You don't live there. I
do. And I'll do whatever the hell I want."
"Narcissistic spoiled bat," Haruka mumbled.
"Would you want to?" Michael snickered.
"I can't be in the same room as Hakael."
"Good, go away and spare us the bloodshed," Haruka said gruffly. Yaten's
nails dug into the seat and Michael backed away slightly
"Semyaza, shut the fuck up! Michael, you're going to come with me
to Hakael's, got it?!" Haruka snorted.
"Yes ma'am," Michael muttered. Haruka lifted her gaze to Michael,
opening her mouth only shutting when Yaten glared at her. Angry heroin addicts
were not the best people in the world, especially ones who had short tempers before
they were addicted to the heroin.

"Hakael!
I'm home!"
"God save me," he muttered while flipping through the channels on the
television. He sighed and spoke up, "Welcome home!"
"I've got a surprise you," Yaten said. Hakael could barely make out
what she was saying from her spot in the hallway.
"Oh really?"
"You've gotta close your eyes, Hakael."
"But-"
"Just shut them!" Hakael sighed and shut his eyes. Yaten walked into
the living room, dragging an unwilling Michael, Haruka trailing behind.
"Hmm… Now you can open them." Hakael opened his eyes slowly, fearing
what was to come.
"…No…" He stared right at Michael. "No, no, no!"
"Can we keep him?" Haruka snickered.
"No! Michael, get out of my house!" Michael blinked.
"But-"
"Out!"
"Can't we just forget the past*?" He smiled, finding suddenly
difficult to do that task.
"No."
"Come on, Hakael," Yaten pleaded. "He has no place to
stay!" Hakael sighed.
"Fine. He can stay. But you," he turned his piercing gaze to Haruka.
"Get out of my house."
"Its technically Lucifer's* house."
"Get out! Lahatiel called and he sounded really pissed and blew up at me
over you when I didn't even know where the fuck you were! Leave!" Haruka
sighed and stood up.
"See ya tomorrow, kid," Haruka said and ruffled Yaten hair, only to
receive a growl back. And stopped next to Michael and snapped her teeth at him.
He gave her and odd look as she walked into the hallway and walked out the
door, slamming it behind her. Yaten winced.
"Great," Hakael muttered. "More door hinges to replace."
Hakael glanced up at Michael. "You're not sleeping in my room. I'd be
afraid you'd rape me or something. Stay in Obyzouth's room."
"…Why my room?"
"He's your pet, Obyzouth," Hakael said sarcastically, picking up his
windbreaker. He dug through all the pockets until he pulled out a syringe and
elastic band. "I only prepared this maybe five minutes before you came
home. Be careful – there's morphine in it." He threw both at Yaten.
"You allow it?" Michael watched as Yaten tied the elastic band around
her arm.
"You can take away the heroin from the addict, but that wont take away the
addiction," Hakael replied. He sighed and leaned back into the chair.
"But it'd bring the abuser one step closer to freedom wouldn't it?"
Hakael shrugged.
"You forget sometimes that you've corrupted several people, Michael,
including me." Michael just stared as the light brown fluid* was pushed
into Yaten's vein.
"But heroin…" Yaten looked up at Michael.
"You speak deep words considering you're a meth manufacturer.*"
Michael inwardly winced.
"Perhaps, Obyzouth… Perhaps I do."

"…And I'll slow come to this realization...
That it's me who stands here,
Feet planted on the warm, red carpet.
And realize all over again that's it's just me,
Standing over my own marble casket."

Casket"

Notes
#1.) Originally, I wasn't going to stick Dommiel's other
brother in here. But he told me too, cause no matter what he did he couldn't
run away from the fact that he was a failure compared to his 'duplicate'.
Dommiel consistently refers to his brother as the smart one who didn't get into
bad things, and the 'family favorite' that never got slapped around my both
Dommiel and Michael.
#2.) "They hated each other from day one." That's quite literally. In
Dommiel's life story he wrote (and is writing all over again) he thoroughly
explained how he hated Monsieur (In this fic, Lady) Caine right from day one.
When Dommiel finishes writing and I type the whole thing up, he's allowing me
to post it. So sometime in the next month or two, you will be able to get to
see everything through the actual Dommiel's eyes.
#3.) When Michael said he was from on the other side of the country when I met
him, that meant he was form California considering I live in New Jersey slums.
I don't care what country you base this fic in, because I never gave a specific
area, just let it be known that Michael is not local.
#4.) The past being the fact that Michael turned around Hakael and made him
literally into a crack cocaine addict.
#5.) Lucifer has not been introduced yet, and at this point, Yaten doesn't have
an awareness of his either. When Hakael welcomed me into the house, Lucifer was
away at Baltimore, Maryland.
#6.) The fluid color of any drug you shoot up on really ranges, though heroin
and morphine is most really know for the varied liquid and powder colors, and
occasionally you'll hear about cocaine being like that. I remember the liquid
color vividly from that night. The hues of the liquid tend to run from clear to
dark brown.
#7.) I was stupid when I said this years ago, because I realized that whether
one is making a synthetic drug such as ecstasy, GHB, LSD, methamphetamine, etc;
cultivating drugs or growing plants that make the drugs such as coca plants,
opium poppies, peyote, cannabis, etc; stealing drugs from pharmacies such as
methadone, OxyContin, OxyCodone, Vicodin, etc; or stealing drugs from
veterinary hospitals such as ketamine, it's typical that they do not use the
drugs themselves. They have the trend of making it and selling it to major
national or international traffickers and dealers; or just in general sell it
themselves depending on the quantity of the drug.
