Chapter One- Raenef's Cross

Raenef slowly opened his eyes, dimly remembering why he was unconscious. He didn't remember much, except that...someone had been mad at him, he just couldn't remember who...

"AAAGH..." Raenef groaned, as he slowly sat up. His whole body hurt! And besides that, he had a lot of complicated questions chasing themselves around in his head.

He knew he was Raenef. He just didn't know what he was. He knew he had a home. He just didn't know what it looked like or where it was. He knew he had friends and someone he loved. He just didn't know what they looked like or who they were.

Raenef's vision blurred, but for some reason he would not release the burning tears behind his eyes. "I...will...not...cry..."

Forcing back the sobs that longed to come forth, Raenef looked around him. Stone surrounded him, it was dark and he couldn't see anything.

Another emotion took place of his misery. Fear.

"Aaaah...it's good to see you're finally awake Raenef...it's time to see if you're worth what I paid for you."

Raenef looked up quickly, then jerked back as bright light hit his eyes.

"P-paid for me...?"

"Yes, and I fully expect you to do your job correctly, or its not going to be that much for you..." the emotionless voice intoned.

"Uh...I'll do my best...?" Raenef said, not quite getting what the voice was talking about.

"Good..."

"RAENEF!" Chris yelled for the millionth time to no avail. Erutis was on the other side of the room rummaging through Raenef's side table.

"LOOK WHAT I FOUND!" Erutis crowed, holding up a little black book. "It's Rae's diary! Let's see if there's anything in here..."

"No...we've got to keep looking for Rae...oh, fine! Open it!" Chris said, getting excited.

"Okay, okay! Don't kill me!" Erutis said, opening the diary. Both the knight and future High Priest sat silently and started to read...

Dear Diary,

Eclipse is once again annoyed with me. I have managed to turn all the books in the library into miniature Mr. Tomatoes. I wish he would stop yelling at me. It tells me more than anything else that he will never love me like I love him.

Every time he yells at me I like the idea of death even more...I'm always staring at my dagger, daring myself to do it...and then my mind shows me an image of Eclipse and I can't...my heart won't let me...

~Raenef

Erutis looked up, tears flowing down her face, feeling genuinely sorry for Raenef, who was the closet friend she had.

Chris was backed into a corner, a look of pure horror on his face.

"ECLIPSE...IS...A...DUDE!!!" he spat.

"Yeeeeah...so what?" Erutis said, giving Chris an "I-don't-give-a-shit-so-why-do-you?" look.

"W-what are you going to do with those?" Raenef asked, his eyes locked on two long ropes of chain.

"They are to be used on you...you wouldn't want to upset me, now would you?"

Raenef stared at him, trying not to whimper. The man had dark red hair that went to his waist and black eyes that seemed to absorb any light that he gazed upon. The man was taller than Raenef by about a foot and a half. He had broad shoulders, but was quite slender.

He had a pale, narrow face and a voice that sent chills down Raenef's spine. He had said his name was Zenire.

Raenef, although he was a morbid person, had no idea what was going on, but he knew it wasn't good for him.

"You didn't answer my question, little one," Zenire said as he attached one of Raenef's arms to the bedpost with the chains.

"N-no...I-I don't w-want to upset y-you...uhh...why exactly are you chaining me to the bed?"

Okay people, listen up. The next chapter WILL contain RAPE! Sorta...so no like, no read, NO FLAMES! I mean it! Oh, and don't flame Zenire either, cause I made him up and he's hot! -_-;;
