K: Well, I was gonna put this in with the rest of the next actual chapter, but then I realized peeps would probably just overlook it in the AN and would be totally confused about what the hell the guy's talking about… --; Anyhoo, here's a sort of filler/trailer for the next chapter…

Disclaimer: I blew all my money at fanimecon, you really think I'd have enough left to buy a whole series? *rolls eyes*

Dedication: To Shinji/Tora, for giving me the idea to start writing fic trailers as a way to brainstorm, and to Sakyu-chan, who came up with fic trailers in the first place, and was kind enough to let me borrow the idea. ^_^ *hugz 'em* Domo!

Scarlet Tears Ode II: Visitor of the Night

::Thunder rumbles in the distance, and a pic of someone looking out into the rain is shown, shaking wildly like the cameras from the 'Blair Witch' movies::

"......A shadow stands over me at night."

::Scene switches to a pic of the person sleeping quietly, the shadow of a figure standing at the foot of his bed, staring down at him::

::Camera zooms to the person's face, hidden behind a glass windowpane as he stares out into the rain, pressing his right hand to the cool surface::

".....I never see him, but I know he's been there...."

::The person jolts awake, whipping around to see the shadow, but the other has already faded away into darkness::

::Back to scene in the rain- he lowers his eyes, bringing his right hand away from the glass and placing it over his heart::

"It's the dreams his presence brings...."

::A myriad of images flash across the screen- people screaming, dying, a glazed, dreamy expression on their white faces as their lifeless bodies slide back down to the ground::

::Screen goes black::

".....I think he's trying to tell me something."

::Scene switches back to the 'rain scene', where the boy lifts his gaze, sharp brown eyes piercing the dark shadows in the mist::

"....but is it a threat.........or a warning?"

::screen goes black again, then ripples and turns red like a pool of blood, revealing white text ::

"Scarlet Tears. Chapter 3 coming soon...."

K: Ne, ne- can someone please illustrate this trailer in a comic or something? I really want to, but I suck at drawing and I know it'll turn out crappy even if I try hard…. --; The person depicted throughout this is Ryou, BTW, and I'm not revealing who the shadowed visitor is yet… XP Domo!
