Therese: Now let see if anybody still reads this story... ON WITH THE FIC!
Chapter 2
A man screamed into the night as his throat was slit open with just one flick of his predator's wrist. He didn't know what he did to deserve this gruesome death. He looked at his killer who was smiling wickedly, only her glossy red lips and matching red serpent right eye was clear in his blurry vision. He was slowly dying in the hands of… a seventeen year old girl, a very conniving, attractive seventeen year old girl.
The said killer smirked as she watched her prey's blood pour down from his neck and stain her white satin gloves that's gripping a golden knife with a snake carved in the handle which is still digging deeper in the man's throat. Her left eye has a sparkle that could lure even the straightest of women to her. That dark brown orb was paired with the red serpent eye that seemed to glow in the dim light of the conveniently empty alley, both looked dangerous yet alluring. Is this the reason why this person has fallen for her trap? She licked her lips. Of course not. It was her accomplice that led him here. She tasted greed, desperation and… lust. It was satisfying but wasn't enough.
The body in her hands went limp and she withdrew her knife from the throat while letting the body drop to the ground like a rag doll. She licked the blood of her favorite knife with a satisfied grin across her face. This was too easy, yet amusing. Child's play. But the fact that this man didn't put up a fight against her was disappointing. She was looking for some kind of challenge, knowing this man was a business man who hired an assassin to kill all his competitors. What a shame? She flipped her curly black hair back and her red serpent eye was now the same dark brown shade as her left eye.
"Are you done yet?" She heard the melodic voice of her accomplice. She turned to see a girl with light tan skin like hers except hers was dull. She also had the same shade of eyes but the woman's was sharp and piercing with a hint of crimson, contradicting her round, doll like ones. Long brown hair cascading to her hips, she has a lot of volume in front where her bangs was piled up. Her glossy red lips match her red evening gown. She was leaning against one of walls, arms crossed in a regal posture. "I had enough of your fun and games, Therese. You could have set aside your cravings for blood and negative emotions and get it over with. You know how impatient I can be" She pushed herself up and gracefully walked over to the dead body and kicked it with her black stiletto.
The said girl laughed at her that she can't help but glare daggers, hoping this will cease Therese's laughter but it only caused her to smirk back. "Oh darling, I'm so sorry" her child-like voice has a hint of wickedness behind it as she breath out the words "It was too much fun seeing him in pain and misery" she licked her lips again as her eye flashed into those serpent eyes and faded to brilliant dark brown again "Considering we are Viletsus. So, it's instinct to make his death slow and painful. Don't you agree, Daniella?" The other just rolled her eyes and started walking away without saying another word.
Therese looked at the limp figure below her before turning around to catch up with Daniellla, leaving a bloodied silver knife on his hands. "Could you now give me the details about that man?" Daniella asked as soon as she saw the flash of gold that came from Therese's triangular dangling earrings on the corner of her eyes.
"Uhm… Let me see if I can remember" Therese looked up, her hands behind her back in a childish manner, pretending to have a difficult time recalling "Jeffry Fetherson, a well known business tycoon over the world. Eliminated almost twelve of his competitors except for one, Seto Kaiba"
Both smirked at the mention of the CEO of Kaiba Corporation. One day, they would get to him. One day, they will feast on his negative emotions until they drive him insane. Insane enough to make him believe they are just hallucinations. Insane enough to make his death… satisfying.

Yugi glared at the golden pendant that was sitting on his study table from his bed. He didn't know why but, he felt something odd ever since that mysterious young man has left it to him. Like a cloud of grief was hanging over him and all those people around him.
Just like earlier today, he was walking down the hall to his next class when he felt a pang of grief and humiliation that made him slow down to a stop. The hallway was empty for some odd reason, so he doesn't know the source of the negative vibes. Then he heard sobs from his right, where the utility closet was located.
He strained to hear who it was, making his vision turn black and white. It was an unknown voice, begging for her torture to stop. Was she talking to him? He shivered as the sobs turned into screams of despair and pain, like the woman was being cut in half. Then Yugi saw a flash of red in his vision, the screaming stopped and childish giggles was heard in its place.
Yugi quickly grabbed the doorknob, tears threatening to fall. He felt someone grab his shoulder, beckoning to him. NO! I need to save her! Yugi mentally screamed as he tried shake away the hand that's stopping him from opening the door.
"YUG! What's gotten into you?" he finally recognized the voice to be Joey's but didn't look back to check if he was right. "Who's in there?" he slapped Joey's hands away, and opened the door to find… nothing. No blood. No dead body. No psychotic child giggling like she's playing dress-up with a friend. Nothing.
He was turned around to face Tristan who looked like he was about to punch Yugi. "What's gotten into you, man?" Tristan yelled at him enraged. Yugi looked beside him to see Joey's hurt yet confused expression. He wanted an explanation. They both wanted an explanation for his odd behavior.
"I-" Yugi didn't know how to explain it to them without them thinking he was insane. I heard a woman screaming bloody murder inside the closet! And I think a child is with her as well, enjoying her pain and misery! Of course! A sane person will say that to his dear friends so that they could have a laugh about it after ten years or so. So he went for the next best thing to do "I don't feel so well"
Joey's expression turned from hurt to concern. Noting Yugi's dark circles, unusually pale skin and dull eyes, he carried Yugi on his back and to the nurse's office.
That's how he ended up back at home, sitting on his bed and looking at the pendant all day. He tried sleeping it off but the face of that stupid, egotistical jerk he met yesterday always haunt him as soon as his eyes do close. And he's emphasizing the word HAUNT.
Yugi heard another scream, this time it was male, before he saw a flash of red from the corner of his eyes. He took a deep breath and ran downstairs to get a glass of water.
As soon as he got what he wanted from the kitchen, he walked to the living room. Yugi threw himself on the couch and turned on the television to get his mind off what he heard and saw a while ago.
"And for breaking news," the blonde newscaster said, looking directly to him like she can see him "Super Model, Miyuki Yashime was found dead on her condo in downtown domino earlier this morning."
Yugi's eyes widen at what he heard. A woman found dead this morning? The same time Yugi heard the screams and cries for help?
"Investigators say that she committed suicide because of the three cuts on both her wrists and the knife beside her" the blonde woman continued, a picture of a pale girl with black hair has appeared on the right side of the screen. Then the newscaster glared at him, like he was the killer, "Why didn't you help her Yugi? You heard her screams and cry for help. WHY DIDN'T YOU SAVE HER!" Just like on cue, blood dripped from Miyuki's eyes on the picture, her smile faded and her mouth was open in a silent scream.
Yugi sank back on his seat before running back to the comforts of him room, sweat dripping down from his forehead to his chin. His eyes were still wide in fear, the words echoing in his head like someone was hitting reply over and over again just to torture him.
WHY DIDN'T YOU SAVE HER?
He didn't know that a pair of crimson eyes was watching him. Lips curved in a satisfied smile as he watched the young man's hysterics. Soon, he'll break down and come look for him. Soon, he'll own his very soul. Soon, hikari, soon.
Therese: /laughs evilly/
Daniella: Aw great! Your a psycho here
Therese: I'm not the only one XD By the way "Viletsus" means "Misery" in Estonia. I prefer to use their language because of two reasons: ONE! I love Kerli ^-^ TWO! I like how their language sound.. so creepy at the same time fascinating and out of the ordinary ^-^
