I asked God for poison cradle. ME. sown to my dreams, soul searching.

Death blossoms were clouds lie over me. held in God's hands,

Death blooming.

Dark for fear of failure. an inner gloom as wide as an eye and

Fermenting roiling hate. death grip in my veins, unveiling rancid

Petals. flowering forth foul nectar. the space between

A blink and a tear…

Death blooms

Chapter VII: Death Blooms

Randal's PoV

I was hiding in a bush in front of Tristan's house. I intercepted a not saying that Joey would be over around 2:30. It was now 2:24. I watched as Tristan and Joey walked into his house, laughing jovially. 'You'd think they would have their guard up over the past few days. Well, their mistake.' I ran to the back of the house. I quietly snuck in. I ran to the knife rack (a/n- gotta have one). I took out the thickest one. I hid behind a counter, waiting to strike. I heard Joey walk into the bathroom. I slowly crept into the front room. Tristan was on the couch watching T.V. I stood behind him. I slammed the knife into his head. His body slid off the couch, into his flooding blood. I saw Joey walk outta the bathroom. I ran and hid in the closet.

"Hey Tristan, what's on-OH MY RA!" I ran out of the closet. Joey tried to run. I caught up with him and stabbed his legs. He fell to his knees.

"Please don't kill me. Please."

"I am entertained by your pleas. Should I kill you?"

"No."

"I don't like that answer. Prism Storm Of Torment (a/n I totally stole that line from Yu Yu Hakusho)." Lightning appeared out of now where. It surged through my hand. I pointed my palm at Joey and he burst into an eruption of lightning. His charred body fell to the ground.

"My work here is done." I ran away from the premises. I walked towards Domino City. I started to look around. I kept my guard up incase I saw Ryou and/or Bakura. I saw an old lady at an intersection.

"Hello, ma'am." I said as I walked past her. I took a few steps and turned around. She was on the ground gripping her throat, blood seeping through her fingers (a/n I took that outta "From Hell"). I laughed as people screamed and crowded around her, calling for ambulances. No one saw me do it so I kept on walking. I remembered the faces of Yami and Yugi right before they died. It brought a chuckle about me. I walked into the crowded part of town. I spotted Ryou. He must have saw me because he was running my way. I started to run. I looked back. Bakura was with him. I ran a little faster, the disappeared.

I reappeared at my temple.

"That was waaaaaaaaayyyy to close. I've got to be more careful." I took off the jacket I was wearing and settled down into my makeshift couch. I flipped on the television. I turned to channel Mtv. I was watching the video for KoRn's 'Thoughtless' when it cut right to an important news bulletin.

"This just in. The murdered bodies of three individuals, names not yet released were reported today. One was at the intersection of Bloom Ave and Bezerker St. Names of two of the bodies have been released. They were identified as Tristan Taylor and Joey Wheeler."

"Man, I hope Bakura is watching this.' I flipped of the television. I headed towards the secret compartment of my temple. I pulled it open, revealing tons of rotted corpses (a/n have you not got the point, Randal is a violent and sadistic freak). I ran over to one. I pulled some thing out of it. It was my secret stash of money. If someone fond my compartment, no one would look in a corpse. I shoved the money, which was easily a few million, into my pocket. I grabbed my coat and walked out.
