My First Post As A 17 Year Old..........................Imma SeeD Commander Like Squallie. On With The Story.
The door slammed shut as the small nine year old boy stormed out of his house and into the dark forest that surrounded his home. Riku could hear his father shouting from behind him but Riku paid no heed to it. The silver haired boy briefly wondered why his father chose not to follow him but he just shook it off. His screwed up family were doing his head in at the moment and he had no idea where his brothers were. Trust Squall and Cloud to run off when he needed them the most. Riku just continued to walk into the forest with everything in his head. He suddenly heard a scream. It would be normal for someone of Riku's age to be scared but Riku wasn't. He simply continued to walk deeper into the forest. He suddenly started to hear noises that sounded like blood squelching and Riku decided to hide behind and tree and peek around the tree to see if he could see anything. Whenn he did, he wished he just hadn't bothered. Two men were leaning over the body of a man and they seemed to be biting into his neck. The two men stood up and what Riku saw scared him more than anything else he had ever seen. The two men were his older brothers, Cloud and Squall and both of them had blood dripping from their lips. Riku let out a loud gasp and the two older males turned to look at him. Squall's eyes went wide while Cloud just looked at him in a confused manner.
"R-Riku" Squall could hardly talk as he started to walk towards him. Riku started to stagger backwards before he turned and started to run as fast as he could back to his house. The moment he arrived back in his house, he ran up to Zack and tried to hide behind him.
"Kiddo, what's wrong" Zack just smiled a little but Riku was scared out of his wits. The raven haired male warpped his arms around Riku's back and he couldn't help but wonder what Riku had seen that made him so scared.
"Cloud and Squall. Th-they're murderers" The smile was wiped from Zack's face and Sephiroth-who had just walked into the room- looked horrified. Suddenly the door slammed shut and the two ' murderers' entered. "Get away from me. Y-you monsters" Sephiroth just sighed and Squall looked to be on the verge of tears. Squall was slightly more emotional than Cloud, especially when it came to Riku.
"Great. Now he knows" Riku looked perplexed as Sephiroth just sighed and ran a hand through his long sliver hair. "Well we may as well tell you now since you've alreday seen it" Sephiroth looked at Zack who leaned down so that he was face to face with Riku.
"There is no easy way to say this so I'm just going to say it as it is. Your a vampire, Riku. This isn't a joke before you even say it. Do you ever wonder why we never let you out into the sunlight or why your skin always felt so cold as if you'd been near an iceberg." Riku started to shake his head just before Zack pulled him towards the mirror that sat in the lounge, simply for decoration purposes. Zack pulled Riku in front of it and pointed at the mirrior. "See I don't have a reflection. Doesn't that tell you something" Riku could only stare at the mirror. He could see a reflection of himself but that was it. There was no reflection of Zack even though he was standing right at the side of Riku.
"I have a reflection. See I can't be a vampire" Riku spoke as fast as was humanly possible which would be difficult since he apprently wasn't human.
"Your half-human" Riku turned to look at his father who walked forward. " Your wretched mother was a human and that is why you can see your reflection. We weren't going to tell you until you were 12 because that is when you'll start craving blood. Surely you must have realized something, Riku. We've never aged since you've been born. Doesn't that tell you something." Riku just looked around before he started to shake before he collapsed into a heap on the floor.
Riku awoke to see a crowd of people around his bed. Zack was hovering over him while everyone else stood at the side. Zack was always the kind of person that had to be in your face but Riku was used to it so he just smiled at the raven haired vampire. Riku looked up at his father who smiled back down at him. Riku liked that fact that his entire family was crowed around him. His father and Zack, his brothers, his grandfather and his grandmother. Riku found it a crime to call this woman his grandmother, she looked so young and so full of life after being trapped in a crystal for over 130 years. Sora must have gave her some sence of relief being trapped in there.
"SORA?" Riku shot into a sitting position before he felt a searing pain running up his side. Zack smiled and pointed to the other side of Riku's bed, the sliver haired vampire turned to see two blue orbs looking up at him. Riku grinned and lay back down and ran his fingers through Sora's hair.
"Right ladies and gentlemen, shows over. Let's go" Zack started to shove everyone out of the room so that Riku and Sora were left alone. Riku watched as everyone evcuated the room before Sora sat up and started Riku right in the eyes. "T-Tidus phoned you from Roxas's mobile. He said he had to urgently speak with you" Riku sighed and slowly sat up again.
"How long was I out for ?" Sora seemed to ponder for a moment.
"Four days" The brunette sighed and pulled Riku's phone out of the pocket of his- well Riku's- jumper. Riku smilied and dialed Roxas's number before he put the phone up to his ear.
"Hey, Roxas......Yeah Sora's fine don't worry and I'm fine.......Look can you get Tidus..Thanks" Riku waited for a moment before Tidus took the phone. "Hey, you wanted to speak to me...um yeah I suppose. At what time?....yeah okay and he'll come too. See you later" Sora looked up at Riku. "We've to meet Tidus and Vaan in the forest in 20 minutes." Sora tilted his head and sighed.
"But your hurt" Sora watched as Riku stood up and pulled on the shirt that lay on his bedside table. He alreday had a pair of jeans on so he was alright. Sora shuffled off the bed and stood beside Riku. The vampire looked down at his best friend and smiled.
"Everything is okay now. Your safe from Xemnas." Riku sighed as Sora hugged him tightly. He hated lying to Sora but he really had no choice "Now come on. I know Tidus and he can be pretty impatiant at the best of times." Sora smiled as he followed Riku out of his room once he was dressed. Sora looked pretty amusing in Riku's clothes that were far too big on him but its all he had at the moment. Everyone that was in the lounge didn't seem to notice the two teens leaving the large house. Riku kept Sora close to him the entire way to the place where they were supposed to be meeting Tidus.
Riku guessed that they were late because when they got to where they were supposed to be, Tidus and Vaan were alreday there. However according to Roxas and Namine, Vaan had extramly bad timekeeping skills.
By the time Riku and Sora reached the place where they were supposed to meet Tidus and Vaan, the two were alreday there. Which was quite surprising. Tidus was leaning casually against a tree while Vaan was just simply pacing around. Sora still clung to the back of Riku even if it was Tidus and Vaan they were near. He never really spoke to either of the other two teens and he had nothing against any of them but he just really wanted to be close Riku.
"About time" Riku raised his eyes at the blond who threw himself on the ground beside Tidus who had walked forward from the tree he was previously leaning on.
"You can talk. I've heard at your just as bad and I don't think Namine would lie" Riku grinned but Vaan just glared at him. Everyone seemed to notice that if Vaan was angry he would either glare at you then attack you or he would pout and then glare.
"Shut it, both of you." Tidus hissed and tilted his head slightly so he could see Sora who was hiding behind Riku. "Okay. Look I hate to ask you this just after you've been saved from....'that place' but you really need to anwser this" Sora nodded his head and came to stand beside Riku, rather than behind him. Tidus seemed to wait for a moment as if he was pondering the question he was about to ask. "Did Xemnas....you know......do anything to you?" Riku's eyes widened and Sora just whimpered a little.
"Tidus, what the hell?" Riku hissed at the werewolf who stood opposite him. Even Vaan was horrified at what Tidus had asked and those two were best friends.
"I don't think you understand how important this really is" Tidus shot back at Riku. However they didn't have time to keep arguing after Sora interupted.
"YES. He did" The small bruentte just stood for a few moments before he started to sob. Tidus groaned loudly and turned to kick a tree. The older werewolf started to mutter curses undr his voice as Riku comforted Sora.
"Sora, have you been feeling sick lately" Tidus watched as Sora nodded an the older werewolf groaned again.
"Get to the point, mutt" Tidus glared at Riku for that remark before he turned to Vaan and looked at him.
"Go and just go back the now" Sora and Riku could see the insult on Vaan's face. Tidus place his hands on Vaan forearms and pushed him back slightly and started to whisper something into his ear. Riku watched as the blond angel pushed Tidus back and looked at him in shock.
"No. For gods sake, Tidus. How the hell can I go out with out if your not willing to tell me stuff" Sora and Riku's eyes widened. Those two had certaily kept that a secret from people. Tidus turned around and looked Sora and sighed. The blond's hand was still holding Vaan's.
"Werewolf are diffrent to everything single mammel in existance. Since there are no female werewolves, its the males of the species that can carry children. In other words..." Everyone around Tidus looked horrified and judging by the look on Vaan's face, he had no idea about this.
"Male werewolves can get pregnant" Vaan whispered into the air. Tidus nodded and looked at Sora.
"I'm sorry, Sora. Your pregnant" The teenager's face paled and he looked horrified as did Riku's. Sora doubled over and started to throw up beside on of the trees. Riku felt sick as well but he just stood silently "I'm so sorry but you give birth in 6 months time. Their's nothing else I can tell you" Sora just fell into a heap on the ground and started to cry. Riku couldn't move as he took in every piece of information in. His best friend who was a boy was pregnant. It just wasn't happening.
"Sora, come on. We better get back." Riku went and picked up his sobbing best friend bridal style and started to walk back to his house.
Sephiroth sighed and looked at his father with an unamused glare. Vincent was still pressing the idea that Sora shouldn't be near their family and he would listin to the fact that Riku would abandon the family if Sora was shoved off. Riku was just like a normal teenager who wouldn't listen to his parents.
"Xemnas won't just give up will he?" Sephiroth looked at Squall who looked strangely nervous. The sliver haired vampire was used to seeing the indiffrent look on his adoptive son's face. Then again, the brunette was obsessively over protective of Riku.
"No. He'll start to look for Sora and he won't give up until he has Sora back" Squall just looked down at the floor while Cloud sat and said nothing. Zack seemed horrified with the idea that Xemnas was going to hunt Sora down. Zack wasn't the only one who was a human before he was a vampire but he was the only one who seemed to retain his humanity. That was possibly because unlike Cloud and Squall, he was in a prefect state of mind when he was turned. Squall was dying from a gunshot wound and Cloud was on the brink of insanity. Suddenly the door slamed shut and Zack jumped off the sofa to see Riku and Sora standing with solem on both their faces.
"Sora, go up to my door" Sora just sadly turned and started to walk up to Riku's room. Riku just fell into Zack's arms. The elder vampire was taken back by the action but he quickly wrapped his arms around Riku. "He's pregnant. The bastard's won" Riku whispered into his 'father's ear. Zack gasped in horror as Riku pushed away from Zack.
"The werewold child is pregnant" Riku looked over to see his grandfather standing in the entrance to the living room. Sephiroth was standing beside Vincent with a look of horror on his face. Sephiroth walked over to his son and looked at him.
"Are you absolutly sure that he is pregnant?" Riku nodded his head. "Tidus informed us" Riku seemed to be very shaken.
"So what do we do?" Zack looked around everyone and Riku suddenly straightened himself out and looked serious again.
"We kill the monster that's inside Sora's body" Even Vincent was shocked by what his grandson was saying. Zack grabbed Riku's shoulder and started to shake him about.
"Riku,this is Sora's baby. If you had one shred of humanity you wou--" Zack was interupted in the middle of his sentense.
"I was never a human, Zack so I don't have a 'shred of humanity'." Zack glred at Riku before he turned to look at Sephiroth
"Your mother was a human" Riku glared at Zack in a rather frightful manner. The youngest vampire was known to be rather frighting at the best of times which was something he took from Sephiroth. It had somthing to do with the abnormal silver hair and the almost demented looked in the shimiering green eyes.
"My disgutsting mother was the scum of the earth who wanted me dead for what I was. She was a pathetic little human who was worthless." Zack growled and lundged at his adoptive son and pushed him to the ground. Everyone back away from the two as Zack pinned Riku to the ground.
"WHAT THE HELL HAS HAPPENED TO YOU" Zack hardly ever raised his voice. It shocked everyone around him apart from Sephiroth who was the only person that had heard him shout before and that was only on two occasions over the course of a 130 odd years. "You've become a monster. A selfish kid who only thinks about his own gain. That kid is Sora's not yours and don't you dare talk about human's like that. I was one and so were your brothers. So was Sora." That was alwyas going to be Riku's weakness. Sora was the one thing that could stop Riku in his path. Sephiroth pulled Zack off of Riku and the teenager just got up and stormed up to his room.
Kairi awoke to the sound of the rain battering off of her window. She sighed as she sat up and looked out her window and decided to go back to sleep. However, Marluxia choose that moment to open the door to his little sister's room. He was dressed in a pair of black sleep pants and his usual black gloves.
"Your phone just went" Marluxia handed the phone over to Kairi who looked to see that she had a text from Riku.
'Kai, please come over before school this is really urgent' The redheaded witch sighed and politely asked her brother to leave her so that she could get reday. About 40 minutes later, the witch was reday and she asked Marluxia to give her a lift to Riku's place.
When Kairi arrived she just walked in to the house. Riku let her do it as did Sephiroth so she just done it. She quickly climbed the staris to Riku's room. She walked into to find him lying on his back, staring at the ceiling while tossing a tennis ball in the air. He looked so tired. Which was saying something because vampires had very little sleep.
"What's wrong" Kairi slowly stepped forward towards the bed where Riku had now sat up and was looking straight at Kairi.
"Sora's having a baby" Kairi raised her eyebrows at Riku. " Male werewolves can bear children. We need to kill that monster that's living inside of him" Kairi gasped before she quickly brought her hand to Riku's face. The slapping sound echoed throughout the room and Riku couldn't say he wasn't expecting that. It didn't stop him from getting angry though.
"You selfish bastard. How could you even say that. It a unborn child and you want it dead" The disgust was clear in Kairi's voice, she glared at Riku who just bared his teeth at her. "Oh grow up, Riku. Do you really think I'm scared of you?" Kairi knew that Riku would never harm her. Sora would hate him if he did and that was something Riku that would just kill the vampire.
"I don't think Sora wants that 'thing' either. It Xemnas's, Kairi. Do you really think that Sora wants any reminder of what happened to him during his time in that hellhole. That is all that baby will be is a cural reminder and its better if its disposed of." Kairi shook her head and ran a hand through her red hair. She turned away from Riku and walked towards the door.
"Get reday for school. I'll go and find Sora" Riku watched as Kairi left the room. The silver haired male sighed and stood up so that he could get reday.
Kairi walked down the staris to hear a strange conversation from the kitchen.
"Okay, Okay so what is exactly is that stuff. Riku never explains any of this to me" She looked around the door to see Sora holding a tub of ice cream and Zack was staring at it in a confused manner. It wasn't even 8.15 in the morning and the brunette was munching ice cream. That was nothing to do with his 'condition'. Sora ate ice cream constantly and it was Roxas fault for that.
"Ice cream. Jeez you've never lived" Sora sounded strangly upbeat for someone whose not been long told that they are having a baby. Kairi made her presense known and just raised her eyebrow at Sora.
"Can't you leave the ice cream for once" Kairi grinned at Sora who smiled at her. Zack stood and waved happily at Kairi. "Aren't you getting reday for school, I'm not your mother Sora" Kairi scolded playfully and Sora put back the ice cream and martched up staris. Kairi watch Sora got up the staris before she sighed and flatened her skirt down.
"I have no idea why Riku has that stuff because I've never seen him eat it" Zack screwed his face up and looked at Kairi who just smiled polity. Suddenly the redhead just burst into a river of tears and Zack was shocked that Kairi had just went from smiling to sobbing in a matter of seconds. Zack hugged Kairi who could do little else but stand and cry for a few moments. When Riku and Sora came down the staris, evidence of Kairi's miniture breakdown were missing.
"Okay, lets go" Riku rolled his eyes and walked out of his house and towards his car. Kairi wtached the two carefully as they didn't interact whatsoever which irritated Kairi because it would have been Riku that wasn't going to talk to Sora. The entire way to school, Riku was as silent as the grave while Kairi spoke to Sora. By the time the three had reach the school, Sora looked like he was on the verge of tears, Kairi looked as if she was going to maul someone and that was most likely going to be Riku while said vampire just said nothing.
Kairi was thankful that Roxas appered when they had got out of the car because Sora ran over to him. Kairi just turned and face Riku with a glare that would make saten himself shiver in fear.
"Are you just going to ignore him forever ?" Riku turned his head to see Roxas hugging Sora before he turned back to the witch standing in front of him.
"What do you want me to say to him, Kai?" Riku arched a elegant brow at the redhead who was standing with her hands on her hips. "I can't just turn around and accept that 'thing'. I'm a vampire and that thing is a pure blood werewolf. Not only that, it the only heir that freak has. I would be a fool if I let it stay alive whether it was good or not" The glare on Kairi's face only intesified at the statement.
"So what's any of that got to do with ignoring Sora" Riku sighed and looked down at the ground. Luckily he was saved by the bell and he quickly walked off from Kairi and towards his science classroom. Riku had no idea what he was supposed to say to Sora.
Axel shook as he heard the woman screaming in pain. The redhead couldn't understand why this was all happening. He really didn't want to be a part of this but he had no choice in the matter because he knew what would happen to him if he refused to do as he was asked. The redhead couldn't help but think back to the look on Roxas's face the blond had found out that Axel had betrayed him.
"You look completely helpless. Go and do something useful, Axel" The redhead looked up to see Ashe staring at him. Axel waited for a moment before a evil smirk came to grace his 'sister's' lips. "Oh yeah, Xemnas wants you to burn down this house and he wants it done as soon as possible and he want it done with all of them inside of it." Ashe handed Axel a picture of the house and what Axel saw made the bile rise in thoroat. It was Roxas's house.
"You've got to be fucking kidding me" Axel hissed at the blond who was standing, laughing beside him.
"Nope. Its to be done as soon as possible" Ashe smiled and started to walk off from the redhead. "What are you worried about, Axel. The little blond hates you anyways" Axel's eyes grew wise and he suddenly had the urge to set Ashe alight but that was nothing unusual. Axel sighed and walked away fromm the house he was standing in front of. Ashe was right, Roxas hated him anyways.
Poor Axel -Sobs-
