Disclaimer: I do not own YGO deal with it
A/N: I came up with this story while writing a few drafts for upcoming Skeletons in the Closet one-shots. This story will take time as I hope to make it at least longer than my other stories. It will be multi-chaptered and will have many, many character deaths along with creepy distorted lullabies (Yay for me)…This first chapter (introduction) will set the ground for the next chapters and the deaths…But if I get no reviews then I will not update nor will I post anything new. People seem to lose interest in stories or only say the famous "Update soon"
Chapter One: Domino Murders
The police were stumped. So far over ten young people had been murdered in the most gruesome ways imaginable and they still didn't have any leads. The only things that the murders had in common was the fact that they were all between the ages of 12-21, they were asleep at the time of the attack and that there was always a lullaby at the crime scene; the only thing was that they were always distorted and had some connection with how the person was murdered.
The mayor of Domino had issued a curfew for every resident from the ages of 12-21, as that seemed to be the targeted age. No person fitting that age frame was allowed to be out after 6 p.m. unaccompanied by an adult. Though as they would come to see, teenagers don't appreciate being told what to do let alone when they thought they could take care of themselves, but as always those that don't abide by the rules are taught a lesson, in this case a permanent one.
The media so far was having a field day with this. They had named him the "Lullaby Killer" and he was in every newspaper and on every channel you could see. They had declared the killer as male for the simple notion that no one believed a female possible of such horrendous acts. Some of the bodies found, so far, had been left almost beyond recognition, forcing the police to rely on dental records for a positive identification. The parents of the victims had been the first ones to contact the media going completely against the police's request to keep this as quiet as possible. They believed that the killer would be easily apprehended if certain facts about the murders were kept quiet. At first most had complied but one in particular had declined immediately, his name was Seto Kaiba.
Seto Kaiba, the president and CEO of Kaiba Corp had been the last person targeted, or at least his younger brother was. The young boy, named Mokuba Kaiba, had been found in his room decapitated. The following note was found attached to his corpse:
Little boy blue, your fate is done,
Big brother is sleeping, now we can have fun
Where is the little boy who hides under the bed?
He's under the blanket, already dead
Victim: Mokuba Kaiba, age 14.
The police could not understand how the killer had made his way into the estate, passed the guards and into the boy's room, and how above all else did he know that the boy would hide under his bed when he got scared. The details of course only incriminated his brother. Seto Kaiba, outraged of course, handed over the video surveillance from the night of the occurrence and eliminated himself as a suspect. Domino Police Department was in transition from a law suit issued against them by Mr. Kaiba.
Domino News:
The victims of the famous Lullaby Killer were relayed us by an inside source from the Domino P.D. Those are said to be Weevil Underwood (age 18), Rex Raptor (age 19), Keith Richards a.k.a. Bandit Keith (age 21) (A/N: okay people I made this one up as I had no clue of what his real was. Same goes for the Doom guys and anyone else that I wasn't really acquainted with), Varon Morris (age 18), Amelda Thomas (age 20), Raphael Lawrence (age 21), Jonathan Bonze a.k.a. Bonze (age 17), Rebecca Hawkins (age 12), and Duke Devlin (age 21).
The first victim was Rebecca Hawkins who had flown into Domino to visit her grandfather. She had been found in an alleyway near a supermarket with no eyes and her tongue had been severed.
The second victim, Duke Devlin had disappeared the same night as the first victim as it was later discovered that they were acquaintances. It was thought that Duke had been present at her murder and had tried to intervene. His body was found hanging from a tree in Domino Park, with his fingers severed and his face burnt off. Dental records were used on this victim for a proper identification.
The third victim was identified as Weevil Underwood, a local usher at the Domino Mall Movie Theatre. His body was found in a dumpster outside of the mall mutilated in several areas, his stomach was found to contain rotting maggots, implying that he had been dead for several weeks, concluding that he was the first victim.
The fourth victim, Varon Morris, was taken out from under Domino Peer where he had appeared to be strangled and hung to rot. The victim held no relatives.
The fifth victim, Amelda Thomas, was found on the roof of the police station, sliced from head to toe. The victim held no relatives.
The sixth victim was identified as Mokuba Kaiba. An impending lawsuit prohibits further disclosure of the victim's condition upon discovery.
The seventh victim Raphael Lawrence was found castrated behind a local shipping warehouse. He appeared to have bled to death from a few yards away, it appeared to be as though the killer had toyed with this victim in particular and had given him leeway to try and escape. The victim held no relatives.
The eighth victim Keith Richards was found hung by his own intestines on the outskirts of Domino. The victim held no relatives.
The ninth victim Jonathan Bonze was found skinned alive seated inside a local pastry shop. The victim held no relatives.
The last victim Rex Raptor was found with missing internal organs and a half chewed hand outside of the local high school. The victim held no relatives.
It is urged for all young people from the ages of 12-21 to stay indoors after the established curfew time of 6 p.m. Any person fitting that age frame that does not abide by the law established by the Mayor of Domino will be arrested upon sight for their own protection.
Joey Wheeler set down the newspaper he had been reading and looked pale towards his friend. "Hey Yug, you think we could be next?"
Misery: So like it? Tell me but remember no flames. I hope it was good enough for a start and that no one is left confused. I know who the killer is (duh) and in what order the characters will die so I will not go along with what people reviewing ask me to do, such as ooohhh kill her first or kill him first. No bashing will be found here and the storyline is already established. I hope to make this ten chapters long, the number of characters that will die…Yay…later
P.S. Three pages long, the longest I've written in a while…
