Author's Notes : I do not own Black Lagoon
This is not canon with my other most recent story titled ' A Mafia Boss and her Vampire Kids ' , this is an AU which is a rewrite of the Vampire Arc .
Expect some OOC'ness coming from some of the characters .
With that in mind enjoy !
Children are supposed to grow up experiencing all kinds of things , happiness ... joy ... humor ... maybe even a little love .
But for a certain unlucky pair of Romanian Twins , the first and everything they had ever experienced ... was pain .
" Stupid brats !" A man kicked a young boy and girl , no older than 5 or 6 years old .
The young girl cried and sniffled , while the boy grit his teeth , why did this man have to be so cruel to them ? Why ?
" Can't you two do anything right ?!" The man kicked them again , making the girl throw up ." We're trying to make a goddamn snuff film here ! Not a sappy drama ! You worthless brats !"
The man turned away from them , taking out a cigar and a lighter . " When the crew and actors get back , I expect you to put your best performance . Got that ?"
The boy with pale white hair , growled at the man , as if he were just a rabid dog that couldn't be tamed . Well , that analogy couldn't be anymore perfect for them . Ever since they had been born into this world , all they have experienced is pain . Hard and unadultered pain . It came in many different forms of course ...
Beatings ...
Rape ...
Being forced to kill other kids ...
And like today being forced to perform in sick films like this one ...
Where even if they did well , they would still only be treated to shit food that may as well be fed to dogs ...
Well ... everybody has a breaking point .
" Now , I want you both to - WHAT THE !" The man didn't have time to react when the boy suddenly jumped onto his back and slammed what looked to be a small knife into his eye , causing him to scream in pain .
They had been waiting for this day for a while , it took a while and was hard fashioning two small knives out of nothing but bathroom tiles and garbage . But all that time and energy was well worth it , as today was the day ...
They would finally be free ...
" YOU FUCKING BRATS !" The man threw the boy off of him and the boy landed on the wooden floor hard . The man pulled the knife out , but before he could go for his dual Colt M1911 , the girl stabbed him in his leg , forcing him down to one knee .
The boy recovered quickly and picked up his knife that was thrown to the ground and jumped back on the man , this time stabbing him clean in the neck . The girl also made her move , stabbing him straight into the middle of his neck .
The boy jumped off the man and walked back , as the man literally started chocking on his own blood .
The boy and girl looked at him dead in the eye , shocked at what had just happened as the man was , before he fell to the floor face first .
The girl panted , shocked and terrified beyond belief ." O-Oh my god ... he's ... he's... "
Dead .
The boy wasn't as shocked by this , he knew that this was the only way ...
The man never would have let them go in a million years , eventually they would have ended just like the others kids had been ... dead .
It was kill or be killed ...
And the boy certainly preferred the former over the latter .
He walked over to his sister and helped her stand up ." Its okay fratele meu ... we're free now ..."
The girl could only nod , as the man's blood started to seep out of him .
" Hey boss , you okay in here , we heard yelling and - " The door suddenly opened and a group of people walked in carrying all sorts of equipment . They were all shocked to see the man dead on the floor " WHAT THE FUCK ?!"
The boy cursed under his breath , before quickly grabbing both of the man's guns , throwing one of the guns to her , before cocking the one in his hand . .
" YOU BRATS DID THIS !"
" KILL THEM !"
...
...
...
The sounds of shots rang out in the abandoned apartment that was home to some of the worst of the worst acts to take place .
The boy and the girl panted for breath , falling to the floor , as the bodies of the crew , actors and other guards fell to the floor dead .
The boy was the first to regain his bearings , quickly grabbing his sister by the hand and pulling her out ." Come on , fratele meu , lets go !"
And like that , they both ran out into the night , with nothing but the clothes on their backs and a gun in their hands .
The next few months weren't all that kind to them , after all who the hell wants to take in a pair of children when they can hardly feed themselves ? The people of the country were going through mass unemployment and poverty , so nobody wanted kids , much less wanted to take care of them .
So what can a pair of children with no family or money really do ? They spent several weeks on empty stomachs , not that they weren't already used to it , since their owners had barely fed them most of the time . They had to steal food from people's farms or gardens and sleep under bridges and trees .
Somehow by some miracle ... they both survived .
Growing up on the streets , they both quickly learned what you had to do to survive and they managed to learn all sorts of things . They learn how to break into a car , they learned how to make connections , they learned how to drive despite their age , they learned how to manage to money , they learned how to properly use a gun and most importantly ...
They learned how to kill ...
Eventually they wounded up working together with an Ex-KGB spy turned assassin on one of their jobs and the ex spy had taken a mild liking to the two . He trained them for about two years , in all sorts of things , espionage , sniping , reconnaissance and other deadly things .
Unfortunately their 'master' as they used to call him wounded up getting killed during a job , it hit both of them pretty hard but like with everything else they got over it and kept on living .
And that is the story on how the Vampires were born ...
" Sora mea , wake up ... we're almost there " A young girl woke up her brother who was sleeping in one of the cabins . The boy opened his eyes to see his sister standing over him , with a smile on her face . " The captain says the ship will be docking soon and we'll meet our client upon arrival "
The boy got up from his bed , sitting up straight . " So soon ?"
" Yup , we'll be arriving in around 5 minutes by the captains estimation "
" Alright , lets get our things and get ready " Hansel got up from the bed and put on his black coat " We need to look presentable for our client "
Gretel nodded in agreement , gathering her things as quickly as she can .
They were used to this sorta thing , packing in a hurry , sometimes leaving behind non-essentials as to not slow them down . Hanse checked their bag to make sure their passports , ammo , guns , knives , snacks , spying equipment and other things were there . After doing a quick check , they both headed topside to join the captain and the rest of the crew .
Heading towards the front deck , the twins felt the cool sea breeze on their faces , the girl's pale white hair flowing in the wind . It was at times like these where they almost felt ... at peace , like they could live this moment forever . The twins held hands together , in a comforting manner .
" Sora mea , look " The girl pointed at the city that was slowly coming into view . They both could see a city decorated with bright and shiny lights . But they knew better than to be fooled by looks alone , they had already done their research on the city .
The city of Roanapur , otherwise known as the city of sin , from they could gather about the history of the city , is that after the Vietnam War, Roanapur became a city where deserting soldiers and prostitutes ran wild . From what they heard , its the city where the worst of the worst gather and try and live together for one common interest . Prostitutes, drug-addicts, mercenaries, killers, and psychopaths of any nationalities compose the population of Roanapur. There is absolutely no discrimination whatsoever , regarding the scum that make up the city .
Branches of large and smaller criminal organizations gather at the city as well . The Russian Mafia , The Triads , the Italian Mafia , the Colombian cartel and pretty much any kind of would be criminal organization exists in Roanapur .
They had been contacted for a job by someone in the city and ... well recently money was tight for the two twins , so how could they refuse ?
Their client had organized for them to be taken to the city by boat , where they would meet them in person upon arrival . The twins had to hand it to their client , they certainly had their connections placed well or maybe the immigration security for the city was just incredibly bad . But either way , they could see the dock slowly start getting closer and closer , and they could see the silhouettes of few men with cars waiting for them .
They both took a deep breath , as the boat docked by the port , the twins jumped off the boat and onto the dock , carrying their luggage along with them .
One of the men approached them , with a grin on his face , that reminded them so much of their first owner ." Well , it was about time you two showed up , I was concerned that something might have happened ..."
The man held out a hand ." Pleased to meet you two , the name's Verrocchio and I'm your new boss "
The twins weren't deterred or intimidated the slightest by the man , instead the boy stepped forward and gave a polite bow . " Pleased to meet you as well , my name is Hansel "
The girl stepped forward to stand by her brother's side " And I am Gretel ..."
" And we ... are the Vampires "
And so that is it , for chapter 1 !
I hope you all enjoyed ! Leave a review to tell me how I can do better !
See you all in the next chapter !
