Title: Crimson

By: Misery Johnson

Disclaimer: I do now own Yugioh or Evanescence

Attention everyone: I have to finish this story before Mid-January,

so the next chapters will be as long as possible, many things will

happen in each chapter, except for this one since it was kind of

rushed. It's sort of an intro to the other chapters and the new turn

it took. I have to do so since next semester classes will be hectic,

very hectic.

Thanks to:

Chi Yagami: I have a question, when I emailed you did you

happen to receive some picture. Some other reviewer kept ranting

on how I kept emailing her with my picture. And I'm not crazy to

send a picture to someone that I don't know through the Internet.

Please respond to this…gomen if I did, although I have no clue

how…

Silver Moon Phoenix: Thanks, I actually got a few reviews so

I'm happy now…

Chapter 16: Haunting Dreams

The church was perfection. The drapes and white rose petals gave

it an air of innocence. The groom stood at the altar a nervous

wreck, seeing his true love approach him. She looked enchanting

in her white Victorian dress, as a delicate vale covered her

beautiful features.

Long lost words whisper slowly to me

Still can't find what keeps me here

When all this time I've been so hollow inside

I know you're still there

An eerie song played in the background as she came to stand beside

him. He knew this was what he needed to make him whole again.

So many decades had passed and his heart had not mended. So

much hate and anger had replaced his once beating heart. Yet all

seemed so distant as he held unto her hand. The couple said their

vows as the sun slowly began to rise. Rays of sunshine sparkled

through the church's stain-glassed windows. The priest announced

their union, allowing the groom to finally gaze upon his beloved.

Watching me wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Fearing you loving you

I won't let you pull me down

But he stood in horror as she began to decay right in front of him.

She gave him a sad smile as her once white dress began to change

to the color of crimson. She gave him one last look before falling

upon the ground and turning to dust.

Hunting you I can smell you – alive

Your heart pounding in my head

Watching me wanting me

I can feel you pull me down

Saving me Watching me


Bakura awoke soaked in sweat. His dream had been vivid and the

pain still remained. He decided to check on Anzu. He need to

make sure that she was all right, he was still fearful for her life.

He couldn't believe that the once mighty vampire was afraid of

anything. But since he had met Anzu his heart had opened up and

all emotions had returned full force. The only thing that mattered

now was her welfare. He made his way to her room, feeling his

heart break over and over again as he remembered that horrible

nightmare. He arrived at her door and hesitated to open it, what

if…? No he had to think positive.

He knocked softly on the door, when no answer came he cautiously

opened it, there laying half on the bed half on the floor was Marik.

He looked so stressed and worried that Bakura almost felt complied

to leave him be, almost. He approached Marik and attempted to

drag him out of the room but was stopped as he heard a whimper.

That made Marik's head shoot right up. His eyes were bloodshot

from lack of sleep. His friend had used all of his remaining

strength to get him to let go of Anzu, long enough for him to check

her for damage. He stated that she'd be fine but Bakura didn't

believe him completely. She lay upon the bed as though she were

an angel. She still looked as fragile as she had before. He couldn't

register why she wouldn't wake up. Deep down he feared the worst

but for Marik's sake she had better get well.

She kept whimpering and soon there were simply hisses, they

observed her closely and noticed as changes began to occur. Her

once light, short hair was now long and dark; her once rosy lips

were full and red. She smirked as he saw how much more beautiful

she was becoming. As sudden moan of pain snapped him out of his

stupor as he saw her body moved as though to protect itself from

invading harm. 'Fangs' he thought, 'they're very painful at first'.

He remembered when he was first turned, the pain he suffered as

they began to grow, but soon they had been merely a discomfort,

later being a gift. He had savored so much blood over the decades

thanks to them. He ushered Marik out of the room with him to let

her final transition take place. But as they turned into the hallway

they heard a crash come from her room. They dashed into it but

saw that Anzu was nowhere to be found. Only glass littered the

window area as the moon shined into the room.


Misery: So like it? Tell me but remember no flames. I understand

if it was short but I have my last final tomorrow and wanted to

update at least a portion of the story, as it will follow. I do warn

that there will be character death in the next chapter. And itwill

be longer than 800, at least 2,000 words

(trying to break the 1800 record from chapter 10)

If you want to know who look at the past chapters and you'll see

someone who does deserve punishment, or at least Anzu thinks he

does…I want to thank you all again and Chi Yagami please

contact me asap… Forgive the grammar mistakes if there are

any...
