Chapter 10: Hakujou
I own nothing from any anime that may come up in here!
Only one more chapter! All cry in sadness!
The guy standing next to the wolf walked to her. "Hello Moonriver. It's nice to see you again." He said. "Shut up!" Moonriver said, backing into the corner. "Come now, you created us. Want to name us?" he said, a laughing look in his eyes. "You want names, how about monsters!" Moonriver snarled. "Come now, we aren't monsters. You made us to match your lover perfectly did you not?" "You'll never be him!" Moonriver said, not sounding very convincing though. He laughed and touched her hair. She cringed at his touch. "Come on. I'm not that bad." He said sounding offended. Darks watched, looking rather amused. He pulled out a collar with a thick chain on it. "Let's go for a walk." He said. Moonriver didn't struggle as he attached the collar around her neck, she just glared at him.
The two walked out of the cell, leaving the wolf to guard Darks. He smiled as Moonriver walked along side him. "You know for such an angry person you sure are obedient." "Shut up." Moonriver said in a voice just above a whisper. "What, is it me? Is it the way I look?" he said. Moonriver didn't say anything, just looked away from him. "So it is the way I look." He said smiling. "This is how you always envisioned your beloved if he were a human. I have to say you have an odd taste, but that's okay." He turned into a room. It was a bedroom with a canopy bed and another door leading to a bathroom with a large tub. The chain grew longer and he tied it to the bed. "I'll be back, do rest, you look horrible." He said. He left the room and locked the door behind him.
Moonriver sat on the bed and found herself consumed by drowsiness. "Dammit what did he do to me." She said before passing out. He came back in shortly after. He laughed softly as he came in and closed the door behind it, locking it as well.
Darks looked boredly around the room. She looked at the wolf. "So you're Amazon, the lover of all lovers. Wow I can't believe Moonriver loves you." She said. "It is not I Moonriver loves, it is a wolf with a soul. We homunculi do not have souls." He said. Darks quickly lost interest. "You may not be him, but I swear you two don't know how to have fun!" she said. "Dark Moon has a gift for you." "I don't want it!" "Oh but he insist that you wear it." "NO!" The wolf ignored her and put the leaf necklace around her. Darks stopped struggling, and her eyes seemed distant. "Well this necklace seems to work well." He said, sitting back down.
Moonriver woke to find him in the bathroom tub. He smiled. "You are amazing in your sleep." Moonriver cringed in disgust, and felt like she wanted to light herself on fire. She put a pillow over her head, as if to deny that any of this was happening. She heard Dark Moon come in. "Stop messing with her, she is mine." "But I thought you wanted that demented little twerp in the dungeons." "I had Moonriver first!" "No you didn't. In a way I am Amazon. Amazon had her before you." "I want you out of my castle; you are no longer a welcomed guest!" "Oh, I'm so scared." "Out!" "I believe I should be the one saying that. This is in fact my room, I created it. So if you don't mind, I'd like you to leave." He said. He snapped his fingers and Dark Moon disappeared. He quickly dressed and walked over to Moonriver. "Don't worry about him love your mine now." Moonriver let out a soft cry before falling asleep. "You're no fair, retreating into your dreams like that." He said. He shrugged and snapped his fingers, creating another bedroom. He walked in and closed the door, leaving Moonriver to sleep.
Dark Moon stormed to the dungeons and threw open the door. He saw Darks was wearing the controlling necklace. "I want you to kill Moonriver!" he shouted as he quickly undid the chains. Darks nodded. Even if she weren't under his control she would have gladly done so. She disappeared into the shadows, reappearing in front of the door. She opened it. The leaf necklace stopped glowing; meaning Darks had some control over what she did. She walked to the bed. Moonriver lay asleep, crying. "Pathetic. This is why I will enjoy killing you." She said. She raised her hand, her fingernails becoming sharp claws.
She stabbed Moonriver in the heart, twisting her claws to make sure the pain kicked in. Darks was no idiot, she knew Moonriver couldn't die, but the more pain she caused, the better. Moonriver woke, screaming in pain. He came dashing in, seeing darks he lunged at her. "Leave her alone!" He shouted. Darks quickly stabbed him. Blood poured from his wound, but it didn't seem to affect him. "I'm not a real person, I can't die." He said. He pulled back some hair covering his forehead, revealing Oruboros, the snake eating itself. All homunculi had this mark. His fingernails turned into claws like Darks. "Homunculi aren't suppose to have souls." He said as he slashed at her. He cut a small cross into Darks' cheek. "But I think I'm different." He said. "I took a bit of Moonriver's soul when she created me. So in essence does that make me human?" he said. Darks screamed as she lunged at him again. "If you're human than why won't you die!" she shouted. He smiled as she sank her claws deep into his heart. He threw her off, slicing her seriously. He put a claw across her neck, just touching it gently. "I could kill you now. You're not immortal, as you're in that pathetic excuse of a body." He turned his claws back to fingers and punched her hard in the stomach. She coughed up blood before passing out. He picked up the leaf necklace, studied it, then yanked it off her neck. "I may not like you, but I don't like Dark Moon either."
"I think I have a name for you." Moonriver said, staring at Darks. Her hair grew shorter, and her clothes turned back to what River was wearing. "Really, what is it?" he said. "Furai." She said. "And Hakujou. Hakujou Furai." Moonriver said. He smiled. "I like the sound of that. Heartless Not Amazon."
