L.W.K: Hey everybody! Nice ta see ya!

SDX: Hey!

L.W.K: Everyone, meet ShadowDreamerX. The reason I am able to have this story re-posted in peace.

SDX: Yup. This story will be exactly the way it was, because L.W.K is having me post it here.
She'll continue to write it, and have me post up the new chappies...but let's get to the old ones, shall we? From here on in this chapter, it's all L.W.K! Take it away, gal.

L.W.K: Thanks...-Grins-


Okay, I suppose I should explain just what caused this or something to that effect. Well I have been reading a ridiculous amount of vampire stories. I wanna write my own now.

With encouragement from my fellow writer and friend Divey, I have decided to write an idea I had for a story. Please no flames. You CAN tell me if you don't like it however. Just nicely okay?

No straight flames.

Unless I need 'em for s'mores...

This story includes an OC from my other stories, known as Sarah Katoma from the world of Yu-gi-oh. This story is also, as I'm SURE you guessed, is AU.

For the people who don't know what that means: Alternate Universe.

I didn't know what this meant for a long time, so I know I would've appreciated the explanation.

Also, as you know, this is a vampire story.

For those of you who don't KNOW my character Sarah, It doesn't matter. You don't need to know her for this story. It's AU. -Shrugs- This is an experiment. If you guys LIKE it I'll post more.

For the heck of it (And for the very nice writer that inspired me to write it) I'll finish. But as far as posting it goes, I won't bother unless I get a good response. Please note something though...I am working VERY hard in a lot of other things. (Outside the computer) I hardly have any time to take breaks at ALL. You guys are lucky that my favorite thing to do when I break is write. And answer e-mails from my dear friends... Yes. You know who you are. Hello.

Warnings: This contains...a possible slight Yami Marik bashing. Oh yeah...and Bakura isn't exactly in a good light here.

Bakura: I vant to suck your blood...! MUWAHAHAHA! The roll I was born to play...!

L.W.K: Oh shut up. -.-; Idiot...I had to give him THAT roll...-Sighs-

Bakura: What did you call me mortal?!

L.W.K: I am no mortal...

Bakura: O.O;; WHAT ARE YOU?!

L.W.K: MUWAHAHAHAA! I am...a WRITER! -Cackles-

Bakura: AHHHHHHHHHH! -Shrieks like little girl- HIDE ME!

L.W.K: -Giggles and turns to readers- Told ya so.

Other warnings: This story will be freaky. You are reading a VAMPIRE story. Blood sucking...the desire for blood...cutting...biting...possible mutilation. Oh yeah...and Angst.

So, let's go people! DISCLAIMER!

Sarah: -Sigh- Yu-gi-oh doesn't belong to the lady winged knight. If it did...it would be one WEIRD show...and Yami Marik probably wouldn't exist. Malik would though...

L.W.K: And ACTION!

Chapter: Prologue: Let the games begin.


In a town dipped in shadow, cries ring through in the night. Pain and stress abounding. Ringing through the stone roads. The dark night's moon smiling mysteriously at the quaint town below. Ominous feelings covered in shadow. Something is happening tonight. A woman shrieks again, more pain then before.

Suddenly the pained shrieks stop. The few passers by stare to the building where they came.

A dark figure smiles. Another cry comes into the night air. But no longer from the woman. It is a child.

The young one coos at the figure that holds it. Fearing neither shadow nor light. The woman also smiles before drifting into a peaceful sleep. Repose as lovely and as deep as rest eternal.

Other figures watched with scowls as the figure holding the child rejoiced. Some looked to the woman in revulsion, others looked to the man. It seemed impossible that this event would take place, and yet it did. Everyone was surprised and amazed...as much as they were angry and disgusted. It was against every thing they knew...every law...every moral rule. Something WOULD be done.

Fate smiled. Such impossibilities becoming realities intrigued it. Darkness looked worried as its brother smiled. The light had planned this for a long time.

And yet...behind its smile there lay uncertainty. Darkness smirked. His brother's plan would fail.

Putting its own in the dark...uniting the two...it was impossible. Light and Dark played games as such...but this time the darkness was sure that his opponent had made a fatal mistake. He would not be out done.

Light watched the figures surrounding the child. Frowning as it paced. Its plan was going along well...but how long would the child be protected? When should the next step be put into play? Light had beaten darkness many times...it would not lose...not this time.

However, other times the darkness had taken hold.

Light would pierce darkness or darkness would smother the light into oblivion.

Combining the two...was it possible?

Light turned to its work...there was more to be done. There was one more element to this plan.

Darkness chuckled and light smirked. "Let the games begin." Dark declared to the other.

"They have already started my brother..."Light answered.

#####

As some time passed again cries rang true through the air. The bright light of morning shed through...

Revealing another figure. A lady with a warm smiling face and a man who seemed strong yet kind...beauty spun about the room and joy flooded from it...

Again light took to smiling. Here was the chance it had been waiting for. This was the one.

Dark glared at his brother. Fury and hatred towards the small infant began to grow. This was unexpected to say the least. But it mattered not...It was just beginning. Only the start of what was to come.

Light smiled once more and proudly exclaimed. "Make your move my brother...I have finished mine."

Darkness glared. It was about time...

"And move I shall..." It said and with that the sky darkened. The time of the light was done.


So that's my prologue. Simply the beginning. The next chapter will be coming soon. I don't even know the name for it yet...but it will be out as quick as I can make it...Yes...I know there are no bishies or boujos here. PRO-LOGUE. Get it? Muwahahaha...

As they said...let the games begin.
