Worlds Collide
Chapter 10
"Do you fear me?" Takuya asked in a low voice.
"No," Zoe firmly replied. "Why did you return? Coming back for seconds?"
Takuya chuckled. "On the contrary, I've come for something else."
"Don't even think about trying to kill me," the blond said. "I might be weaker than you, but I won't hesitate to castrate you."
A blade was suddenly pressed against Takuya's crotch. He winced slightly, trying to shift somewhat.
"Take it easy. I'm not here to kill you. If I was going to, then I already would've."
Zoe lowered the knife, then pushed him away from her. "Then why are you here?"
"I came here to talk."
"Talk about what?" Zoe raised an eyebrow incredulously.
Takuya clenched his hands into fists and took a deep breath. "Look, I'm not very good with this shit. Fucking and killing are basically the only things I know about. So here me out."
The angel took a moment to think about it, then nodded. "Okay. What do you want to talk about?"
"Not here," Takuya replied, suspiciously looking around. "I can't risk anyone hearing this."
"Well, where are we supposed to go?" Zoe asked.
"I know of a place. We can fly there."
Zoe stared at him. "I would go along with that idea, but there's one problem. You kind of destroyed one of my wings. I need both to fly."
Before she knew it, Takuya had gathered her into his arms. "Hang on."
He propelled them outside, taking off into the darkness.
Zoe fused her eyes shut, holding him tightly around the neck. She wasn't used to this speed. He plummeted down through the golden cloud, making his way down to earth.
"Where are you taking us?" She shouted through the wind.
"You'll see," he loudly replied.
A few minutes later Takuya landed on a snow-capped mountain top. He gently set her down and smiled.
"Enjoy the ride?" He quipped.
Zoe rolled her eyes as she tried to smooth down her hair. "So what do you want?"
Takuya's smile disappeared. "I'm not sure how to say this without you thinking I'm crazy. But then again, most people think I'm crazy anyway. So I guess it kinda works-"
"Just get on with it," she impatiently told him.
"Right." Takuya scratched the back of his head. "How do you feel when you're around me?"
Zoe faltered, her green eyes widening slightly.
"Indifferent," she lied. "Somewhat annoyed."
Takuya smirked. "Yeah, sure. Anyway, I don't know what it is about you, but you drive me crazy."
"Crazy in what way?" Zoe asked, her heart quickening its pace.
"I don't know. But the few times I've been around you, I get this fucked up feeling inside of me. I've never felt it before, and I'm curious what it is," he said.
The blond swallowed. "Do....do you feel happy inside?"
Takuya shrugged. "I'm not sure. I've never felt happy that way. I've only been happy if I was torturing or fucking someone. Killing, too."
"Ummm......well...." Zoe was at a loss for words.
She was surprised when he put his hands on her shoulders, his dark eyes boring into her. "I'm just going to come out and say it. When I'm around you, I want to shove you onto the ground and have my way with you."
Zoe smirked. "Way to sugarcoat it."
"But it's not just that," he said. "I want to do...this!"
Takuya crushed his lips against hers, wrapping his arms around her waist. Although Zoe had been caught off guard, she hadn't felt the urge to pull away. In fact, she felt the complete opposite. She didn't even register the fact that she was returning his gesture. He deepened the kiss, intensifying it, lightly nibbling her lower lip. Finally, he pulled away.
"Okay, what just happened?" Zoe softly touched her lips with her fingertips. "Where is this coming from?"
"I don't know. You're the angel here, so you should know about this. Fill me in already," Takuya said, exasperated. "What the hell is going on?"
Zoe shrugged, confused as well. "Just because I'm an angel, it doesn't mean anything. The only thing I can think of is that we're attracted to each other."
"But I can't stop thinking about you," he replied. "I've been attracted to women before and not give a shit about them ten minutes later. You're different, though I don't know why."
"Do you even know my name?" Zoe asked.
Takuya dropped his gaze. "Well....no.... So are you going to tell me?"
"Zoe," she replied. "And you are?"
He hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath. "Takuya."
Immediately, Zoe's eyes went wide. "Wait, what? You're Takuya?"
"Umm...yeah... Is there a problem?" He inquired.
"A problem? You're the friggen son of Satan!" Zoe nervously ran her hand through her hair. "I can't believe this. I can't believe I just made out with the damn Devil's son."
"Hey, I'm not that bad," he countered. "I didn't kill you, so cut me some slack."
Zoe sighed, sinking to the ground. "It's just a lot to take in. I mean, it was bad enough when I found myself constantly thinking about a creature from hell in the first place. But the son of Satan?"
Takuya smiled. "You were thinking about me?"
"Eh, shut up," she muttered. "Just when I thought things couldn't get any weirder."
"So....now what?" Takuya asked.
"I...I don't even know. We should probably just pretend like none of this ever happened. I mean, an angel and a....demon?"
The brunette smirked. "I'm at least a few rankings up, but close enough."
"Whatever. This is just unheard of...." Zoe's voice trailed off.
Takuya pulled her up and looked into her eyes. "I can't stop thinking about you, and you want us to pretend like none of this ever happened? You even said that you constantly think about me. Why the sudden change?"
"I don't know." Zoe shook her head, confused. "We can't-"
"Can't what?" He gently stroked her cheek. "Just because we're different we can't feel this way?"
Zoe shuddered slightly, enjoying the warmth of his skin against hers. "I'm not sure...."
Takuya sighed, dropping his hand. "I'll let you think about it. I'm going to drop you off and I'll be back tomorrow for your answer."
"Okay," the angel replied, unsure of herself.
"I really want to get to know you, which is a first in my book." Takuya picked her up, extending his long demonic wings. "Just think about it."
Zoe silently nodded as she wrapped her arms around his neck. A moment later they took off, making their way back to Heaven. The blond rested her head against his shoulder, having a battle with herself.
He's the son of Satan for christ's sake. What the hell is the matter with you?
But he's different. He's not like those cruel, vile monsters that lurk in the underworld.
It doesn't matter. He'll kill you the minute after he's had his way with you.
How do you know? He would've killed me already if that was his goal.
But that doesn't change the fact that he's basically a demon and you're an angel. It could never work.
Just shut up and see how it goes....
About five minutes later Takuya swooped into Zoe's open window and set her down. He lightly reached down and adjusted the strap of her nightgown, which had slipped off her shoulder.
"Please, just think about it," he whispered into her ear. "I'll see you tomorrow night."
"I'll let you know," she quietly replied.
Takuya leaned down and gave her a soft kiss. "Goodbye."
Before she knew it, he had taken off, leaving her alone to ponder with her thoughts.
Ten minutes later on earth
Takuya was holding a young man up by his throat, digging his fingers into the soft flesh of his neck. Blood spurted out and splattered on his face, forming crimson trails. The man screamed, desperately trying to break free of his grasp. Takuya tightened his grip, then used his other hand to yank out the boy's larynx. His victim convulsed, then went limp. Takuya dropped him to the ground with a satisfied smile. When the bars are closed for the night, do the next best thing to take the edge off, he told himself. Kill someone and leave their mutilated body behind.
