Hi all! I'm Crystal Hikari and this is my first FanFic! I've read them
for a while and now I'm going to try my hand at writing my own. I hope you
all enjoy it!!
***Prologue***
A group of mortals walk below me. I see their happy, shining faces. One makes a joke and the others laugh. Around me, the shadows shift and pulse with an eerie glow. That's what the only "light" is here, in the deepest part of the Shadow Realm. It's all I see.
I look back to the view which I have created of the real world. The sunshine, the beauty, the joy . . . it makes me sick. Why? Maybe I have dwelt in the shadows for too long and I yearn for a way into the light. Maybe I am just to far gone to see the truth behind their happiness. Maybe . . . no. I have waited for too long to let this moment pass.
The boundary that separates these two realms is getting weaker. I will be able to reach through soon. For I need something from that world, two things to be precise. If I have them I will be able to recover what is mine from the shadows that imprisons me.
I think of the crime I will have to commit. To take the freedom of others so that I can become free. Oh well. Why should I care? It's not like they did when they sentenced me here in the first place. They have no idea what it's like, when I first came to this tortured place. The shifting fog, the dark, tortuous memories of happier days, and who could forget the nightmares that had a nasty habit of coming true? Welcome to the shadow realm boys and girls, enjoy your stay.
I am so alone . . . but soon, I won't be alone. No. Soon, two will join me, and when I am free, so will the rest of the world. If I can not have light, no one will.
But I must not be hasty, I must take this one step at a time. One miscalculation and my whole world will fall to dust, not that it can get any worse. Oh well on with step one. . .
***********************
My first goal, two innocents. I must find them first, get them together, and when the time is right and the barrier is thin I will steal them away. With their light protecting me, willingly or not, I will be able to take back my item.
Now, who to chose .Ah! That one will do nicely!
My little window into the world shows to me a boy in high school. He has many friends surrounding and supporting him. I look at him closely. He is short for his age and his hair is strangely styled . weird mortals. I sense a spirit guardian keeping watch over his soul. Nothing I can't handle. His purple eyes show innocence and his heart is pure. What a wimp. He will do nicely.
Next, hmmm, lets see now. . .
Oh perfect! My window settles on a different scene. A young girl sits in class, dutifully copying her note off the board. Her blonde hair streams neatly down her back. Her blue eyes positively shine with the purity that I need. She will be the second.
I smile. So far so good! Now all I have to do is wait until the barrier grows thin. In the meantime, I must get these two into the same spot, so I can take them when the time is right.
I sigh, looking over my drab surroundings once more. The purple and black fog shifts and shadows pace unceasingly. For now, this is all I have, but soon. . . I will have so much more, and the rest of the world will have so much less!
*****************************
So. . . What do you think? Please review and tell me if you liked it and if it is worth continuing. I will have Yugi in the next chapter, I promise. Thank-you everyone!
