Chapter seven: Creatures of the Night. Part one
Yuki opened his eyes and heard that it was quiet, just the way he likes to get up. He looks at the clock and saw that it was 9:00 p.m. He sits up from the bed. It has been almost four days since he can to temporary live with Shuichi. He noticed that Shuichi spent most of his time in his room working on his music, which was just fine with Yuki. He stood up and went to the dresser. He unpacked his clothes into it to make life a little bit easier. He decided to just get a new apartment, but still needs to find one that would suit his tastes. He got dressed and walked out of the room. He walks into the kitchen and started to make a cup of coffee. He went shopping the other day and bought a new coffee machine. He will probably throw away his old one when he moves his stuff to the new apartment. He walks into the living room and noticed a piece of paper on the coffee table. He picked it up and read it.
'Hey Yuki,
Under this note is a ticket to my latest concert. I am hoping that you will come, but you don't have to if you don't want to. The concert starts at 10:00 tonight so see you there…..maybe.'
Yuki looked back onto the coffee table and saw the little piece of paper that was the ticket. He picked that up next and looked at it. It was at a concert hall that wasn't that far away from the apartment. He looked at the clock that was on the wall. 9:25 p.m. He might as well go, after all he was crashing at his place even though he hates crowds. That and he wouldn't hear the end of it, if Tohma heard about this and saw that he didn't go. He went back into his room and decided to work a little bit before he went.
It was 9:45 p.m. when he left the apartment. He walked down the street and continued walking until he reached the address. As usual it was pack and with the special pass that was with the ticket he got in easily. He went to the front of the audience and waited for the concert to start. The crowd erupted into a cheer when Shuichi and the rest of the band came out.
"Thanks for coming everyone, let's start the party!" Shuichi called with a grin on his face. The music started and a few seconds later there was the blast of the guitar.
"Spicy Marmalade These days, people really seem
to be lead astray, with faces hidden by sadness.
What's making you tremble? Hedonists are the one who smile.
Lying along these frozen rails is a future that's been planned without telling us.
Eccentricity is an obstacle; passion is absorbing.
Quite a nightmare, isn't it? Boredom's fighting back.
Spicy Marmalade Now that it's exploded into being,
Seize hold of this evening's chance.
Vanish into the night These days, people really seem
to be astray, with faces hidden by sadness.
Beneath the stage of the pale moon, the sobbing villain scrams aloud.
In the sweet contents of the bottle, the fatal reality us a misunderstanding.
Mischievously acting like you want it, join the fad yourself.
Quite a problem, isn't it? Vainly not even noticing…
Spicy Marmalade In your own way,
throw off the chains if they've rusted.
Vanish into the night Even tonight, so intently gazed up,
becomes a phantom with the touch of a fingertip.
Spicy Marmalade Now that it's exploded onto being,
seize hold of this evening's chance.
Vanish into the night Conspicuous marmalade
If you've decided you're ready, well, then…
Spicy Marmalade In your own way,
throw off the chains if they've rusted.
Vanish into the night These days, people really seem
to be lead astray, with faces hidden by sadness."
The crowd cheered when the song ended. Shuichi made eye contact with Yuki and smiled. He turned back to the crowd and started on the next song. As the music blared Yuki head a voice beside him. "I wasn't expecting to see you here Eiri." Yuki turned and saw that it was Tohma.
"I had no choice in the matter." Yuki replied. Tohma looked at him looking like he was confused.
"Why's that?"
"I would never hear the end of it, if I didn't come." He told him glaring at him a little.
"Now what would give you that thought?" Tohma asked looking innocent. The music started up again, interrupting what Yuki was going to say. They looked back up to the stage.
"Here is one of my newest singles; I hope that you will enjoy it." Shuichi said into the mike. "SMASHING BLUE!" The crowd let out a thunderous roar as they cheered.
" OH! OH! SMASHING BLUE OH! OH!
The dried aftermath of the passing shower has begun painfully to tell a tale:
'In tears, so silently… the wandering nights have passed.'
Shivering with the rain that trails down my body, a fleeting thought passes;
'In crimson allure… the wandering nights passed.'
Coloring the radiant miracle Smashing Blue
Beginning to make me true The vanishing moon is silent
We don't need even your voice Smashing Blue
Our bodies….."
There was a loud sound of something smashing into pieces. The music stops and the crowd went silent. There was another shattering noise and something appeared on the side of the stage. It growled and howled. The people started to panic and ran to the exit. In no time the place was empty other than the bad, Tohma, and Yuki. The creature stepped out into the light revealing a giant dog.
"A werewolf." Tohma said frowning. It continued to growl as it walked slowly to Shuichi. He was taking steps back away from it. Hiro stepped in front of him blocking him from the wolf's point of view. Yuki stepped forward and jumped on stage. The wolf stopped and looked at him.
"And what is a mutt doing here?" he asked. It growled at him this time. It looked from him, to Shuichi, then back to him. It crouched down and pounced onto Yuki. He landed off the stage onto the ground with an 'oof'. He was fending the wolf off with his right arm. The wolf had it's fangs in his arm and the blood was dripping off onto him and the floor. He punched the wolf in the face, sending it flying into the wall to the right. Yuki stood up wincing from the throbbing pain in his arm. The wolf stood up as well and shook. It looked at Yuki and bared it's blood covered fangs. It jumped and Yuki dodged this time. It kept going and would have hit Tohma if his didn't smoothly move out of the way. It crashed into that wall, leaving a hole in it. Yuki saw it as an opportunity and rush up to the wolf. It looked up surprised before Yuki kicked it out of the building. He turned back to the others.
"Stay here," he commanded and jumped out of the building as well. Shuichi jumped off the stage and went to follow, only to be stopped by Tohma.
"You heard him, stay here Shuichi-kun," Tohma said with that sweetly voice. A chill went up Shuichi's spin.
"What about Yuki?" he asked.
"Oh don't worry about him; he can take care of himself."
"But, he is going against a werewolf." Tohma smiled down at him.
"Yuki is a lot stronger than he looks."
