Chapter Two: Bad Stroke of Luck
Ansem groaned as the morning sun shone its way into the bedroom he was sleeping in. He ran a hand through his hair, and then pulled the silky blue sheets off of himself as he climbed out of bed. The man blinked, seeing that he was fully clothed in a long-sleeved white shirt, baggy blue pants and white socks. He got ready to stand up until he sneezed hard, falling back onto the bed.
"Ugh..."
"Ansem, you should stay in bed!" Nao demanded, entering the bedroom. He sighed, and then climbed under the bed sheets before coughing. The woman walked over to him, holding a tray with an empty mug and a pot of hot tea.
"I feel horrible..."
"Well, speaking that you were wearing next to nothing and it was pretty cold last night, you have a cold."
"I'm sorry if I am a burden..." The succubus smiled, pouring a cup of tea before lightly blowing on it and handing it to the man. Ansem blinked, then slowly took the mug from her before looking at the tea.
"It'll help you get better, so drink up! And you're not a burden." He nodded, and then slow began drinking the tea. Nao smiled softly watching him, then took the mug from him once he was finished.
"Thank you, Miss Nightingale."
"Just call me Nao, now get some rest." Ansem nodded lightly, and then lied down on his side, drifting off to sleep. The succubus stood up, and then left the room, closing the door behind her.
"This world has been connected..." I looked around to see that I was standing in darkness, hearing my own voice echo. "Tied to the darkness... soon to be completely eclipsed..."
What... what am I talking about? Connection? Tied to... the darkness? When did I say this...?
Nao stood at the sink with her black sleeves rolled up as she washed the dishes. She stopped rinsing out Ansem's mug when she heard the doorbell ring. The succubus dried her hands off, took off her white apron, revealing her black leggings and black leather boots, and then ran to the living room. Once she had opened the door, she was face-to-face with another succubus who was wearing a read dress, cream stockings, red heels and a cream-colored wool coat. She had short pink hair and cerulean blue eyes, and like Nao, she too had purple bat like wings coming out of her back and head.
"Sister..." the other succubus said to Nao, causing her to step out of the way and allow her to step into her household.
"Neo, sis, how are you?"
"Just fine... What have you been up to...?"
"Nothing really," Nao replied, closing the door. Neo nodded, and then followed her younger sister the kitchen. She blinked, seeing that was making a pot chicken noodle soup, and then sniffed around.
"There's someone else here..."
"Huh? What do you—"
"You have someone else in this household and I'm sure the soup's for that being." That's when the pink-haired succubus quickly left the kitchen, following the scent. Her sister growled, then followed after, trying to end her search for whom she smelled.
"Sis! Stop!"
"You shouldn't hide things, younger sister." Neo pushed open Nao's bedroom door to see Ansem lying in her bed. She smirked, glancing at her younger sibling. "A man? My, my..."
"Neo! I found him in the park and he needed help!"
"He could be a criminal."
"Stop thinking like Daddy for once and help me—he has a really bad cold!" Nao's sister rolled her eyes and sighed before leaving the room for the kitchen.
"Whatever..."
Ansem sat up in bed, coughing loudly as a pink-haired succubus entered the room, carrying a tray with a bowl of chicken noodle soup. She made her way over to him, and then dropped the tray onto his lap, causing him to wince.
"Ouch... that kind of hurt..."
"I don't care. I'm doing Nao a favor—not you." Ansem sighed, picked up the spoon, and then began eating. He was beginning to not like this succubus...
The man chocked slightly, then gasped when the Neo slapped him hard on the back. He coughed hard, and then rubbed his chest, staring at her.
"Thank you..."
"Whatever." With that, she left, leaving Ansem there in silence to eat his soup. What an interesting person...
There... finally finished that chapter. Just to let you know, when there's like a spaced out paragraph or set of paragraphs in the middle of the story or whatever, it's a scene change. However, since it's first person, it's Ansem in his "Dark State", in which his mind and soul go to a different work, one of total darkness. Usually he hears himself saying things that were said in the game and he has confrontations with his dark side. Also, I'm trying to alter this so that it'll fit with KH2 somehow... Ansem comes back.
Anyway, just to state a fact, the romance isn't quite being rushed. Ansem has yet to admit his true feelings to Nao because of his current state.
