Alluring Darkness

Chapter 01= Presence

A dark sky, just as dark as his thoughts were right
now, was what he was staring at -almost admiring.

Clouds, still unrecognizable because of the darkness
of the sky, were growing to cover the shining stars, so quickly it took less
than an hour to have them disappeared completely, this being the only sign they
existed.

Here and there, other type of lights were
recognizable, the red lights of the airplanes landing or departing from the
city, but it was like nothing could break the peace.

Deep, crimson eyes stared carelessly at the sky,
mildly wondering if it would rain in the immediate future, but not bothering
the last bit about it.

It was all too quiet to ruin the moment by thinking
something so stupid -it was one of the few peaceful moments he could spare and
he wasn�t going to spoil it.

It was a wonderful night, stars shining up high,
bright and clear -he could even tell which light was which constellation- the
moon standing right above his head with its pale glow, and the silence greeting
him.

Nothing could be compared with laying in the grass in
the middle of the night, staring up at the sky, with no care in the world, no
place he was needed to be, no one waiting for him.

Just himself to be with.

Next to his face, gracing his painted cheeks, there
was his scarf, which he took away in order to lay down better� well, it was
heavy, and for how much he was used wearing it, knowing it helped him
strengthen up, it still bugged him sometimes.

Why do I need these kinds of things? Why can�t I just
let it all go, and start acting normal? Maybe he would think like this another
time... but not tonight. For once, similar thoughts were not appearing in his
mind, he was contented resting the way he was doing now.

Arms resting behind his head, eyes
fixed high but lightly unfocused, as if the teen wasn�t really just looking up,
but inside himself as well.

Many nights he�d spent like this, back in the days he
hadn�t needed to worry about championships, or people trying to dominate the
world. He could�ve passed hours like this, and no one would ever had known -not
even Boris, who was his director and knew all about him.

Years passed by, he grew up, things changed, nothing
would never ever be the same again, but still, as his mind went back to his
past, the slate haired teen resting well hidden in the grass knew he would
never miss entirely what he�d left back.

His past, dark and painful, was concealed behind the
mask he usually wore, he was determined not to turn to it anymore, he was now
looking up, trying to find a way to finally cope with it without getting hurt.

But in nights like these, nothing mattered.

He was high above the city, no highlights could reach
his spot, protected by the tall trees and by the bushes, no cars, no human
voices could break the intense peacefulness of the moment -it was just him and
the night.

His eyes closed slightly, his mind relaxing a bit,
forcing him to forget the problems of the last weeks in order to rest
-something he�d been deprived of no matter how hard others would complain,
especially Mr. Dickinson.

The recent championship, the challenge Boris tried in
order to defeat once for all Tyson and his idealistic idea of justice, the
fights, the strain of competing against strong opponents, it was a weight Kai
was all too happy to brush off his back.

He�d almost been killed in one of those so called
justice matches, against a genius that was way stronger than he would ever be.

He�d thought he would die, it was true -but luckily
enough, by a twisted turn of fate, he�d been saved in time, had being called
back to the living.

Not that the last strain left him unharmed. After the
loss of energy due to The Fight complications occurred that did not fade
together with the weariness and the weakness after few days.

His hands�

Soft footsteps could not take him out of his
concentration, even if in some deep part of his mind he�d registered the sound
and tensed up just barely.

Was it Tala? The red head knew how Kai�s mind worked,
so maybe he found out where he was and dropped by.

A soft whiff caressed his silky hair as the other
person sat down near him, not speaking, almost not breathing, trying too to keep the silence some more.

But he knew it would break. It was almost obvious one
of them would speak, the words chasing away the quiet, sounding foreign and out
of place, and still, he couldn�t stop it to happen.

He opened his eyes again, not caring about the other�s
presence, not caring about whom the other might be, his tension returning
slightly because of the proximity with another human being.

Bright orange hair met his sight, together with white
clothing that made the crimson eyes blind for a split second, too candid in the
darkness. Bright calm and intense green eyes were not looking at him, but
staring at the sky, as if the other hadn�t registered his presence somehow.

Still, no one spoke.

The slate haired teen was starting to feel uneasy,
this was another kind of silence, one the orange haired enigma seemed to like, on the other hand it unnerved him greatly.

But he couldn�t speak. Not with�

Seconds passed, minutes passed, but the tension in his
shoulders and stomach didn�t go away. He shifted uncomfortably once, knowing his
personal space had been broken and he needed to get back, shattered peace and
ruined night.

He was about to get up, his muscles tensing and his
weight shifting to help him sit, when green eyes finally turned to him.

Still no words were spoken, but Kai stood there frozen
by the piercing gaze, flashes of memories from their fight appearing before his
eyes. Memories of their fight, memory of the heated battle that caused his
greatest fears to play again before his eyes, the dark creature lingering just
above, enveloped by darkness�

Crimson met green in a long speechless glance,
emotionless expression meeting pacific one.

It was like the time had stopped, the slate haired
teen�s mind was filled with questions -why was he here? How could he know about
this place? Why now?

Why wasn�t he speaking? That silence� he couldn�t
stand it. It was filled by the dark presence of the BitBeast� Zeus� it was so
similar to Black Dranzer�

They hadn�t been in good terms right after the fight
between each other, or even more after the fight the orange haired teen had
with Tyson. What now?

Brooklyn.

Such a mysterious one.

Or should it be �weird�?

Not that he was the one to speak. He was well aware of
how strange he could appear to normal people, with his unusual crimson eyes and
shark fins marked on his cheeks.

But he couldn�t understand Brooklyn.

He was just too strange.

He always smiled as if nothing was wrong in the world,
quiet and serene, eyes warm and welcoming, and then, in the moment�s change,
the reassuring smile would turn to a sadistic grin, green intense eyes would
shine with a mischievous light, almost filled with some kind of lust.

He could not read him like he read everybody else.

And he didn�t like this the
last bit.

Weird, strange, it didn�t matter; Brooklyn was someone
he couldn�t stand to stay near to. It was not fear, he kept repeating over and
over in his mind. He was not afraid of Brooklyn, not at all, and he was not
afraid of Zeus!

Brooklyn was still looking at him, unreadable eyes
burning into his own, and then, a soft slow smile appeared.

�Stay,� Brooklyn finally whispered. �You don�t need to
go, Kai�.

Contrariwise to what he had thought, the whisper was
so low it was barely audible, it didn�t break the silence, as if it was part of
it, as if Brooklyn didn�t speak, as if he communicated with him with his mind.

Comfortable, that�s how he was feeling now.

This alone scared him immensely. It was like he was
under the hypnotic gaze of the orange haired blader, he refused to, he rejected the very feeling of it! He would never get along
with Brooklyn, because� because�

No, he didn�t fear Brooklyn� but�

Flashes of dark� Zeus attacking him.

The feeling of hopelessness, sinking down, unable to
stop his fall�

Empty, hollow� dark and thick� just like blood, but
blank, enveloping him; drowning in the nothingness, Zeus and Brooklyn staring
down at him with insane, satisfied eyes, their faces twisted into a sadistic
and morbid smirk, destroying Kai�s barriers, having him face his worst
nightmare�

All the pain of the place he was sent to, all the
things he had to face down there, a hell inside his own mind, lost, trapped
within it, the despair and the anguish, the loss of hope, the complete loss of
his own being.

It hurt.

And he was terribly afraid to have to go once more
down there. He came out once, but he was sure he wouldn�t be able to free
himself again if needed. He was losing his real self in the dark hole and he
knew deep down that the second time he would not be so lucky to escape.

Green eyes turned again to him, piercing and caring,
hiding, smiling, bright and obscure at the same, flickers of gentleness but
also of craving�

No.

No!

He wasn�t aware he was trembling,
it was so slightly neither he nor Brooklyn noticed it. But he was feeling so
cold, as if the night was eating away the warmth of his soul.

Green eyes, piercing through him�

Kai�s eyes widened, he couldn�t stand any longer
Brooklyn presence. He turned and ran away, caring nothing of whatever pride he
could have, caring nothing of what Brooklyn would think.

Fear. No, it wasn�t fear! But still, he ran.

Brooklyn stared at his retreating form, confusion and...
hurt? Clear in his eyes then with a soft sigh, he lay
down once more, green eyes staring up.

Eating the light.

��

Sun shining above the park as he laid down the grass
-really, he was a lucky guy. For two days he got to spend some time alone.

Well, technically not completely alone.

Brooklyn�

A wave of cold hit him and he shuddered despite
himself. No matter if the sun was shining above him,
and it was a very hot day. It was cold� every time he thought about the orange
haired teen.

Uneasy was not the world he could use when speaking
about what he felt around Zeus� wielder... maybe it was because he looked
unreadable to the slate haired blader -void of any emotion was an
understatement, Brooklyn had emotions but they were hidden behind a
carefree mask, much similar to the emotionless one Kai himself wore every day.

No, it was not the mask.

�(Tainted...)�

Kai gasped sitting up abruptly, and shook his head
forcibly, the voice he was determined to forget echoing in his mind. Others
would say he had to go to an asylum since he was starting to hear voices, but
this wasn�t the case.

There were too many ghosts in his past, and the fact
that he had been forced to remember all of them, living inside them again,
twice, thrice, did not help at all.

That attack�

He seized his shoulders with his hands, trembling,
holding so tightly he hurt himself, but any physical pain was better than
remembering�

A sudden stab of pain from his fingers reminded him of
his problems, but the pain, so real, so strong, helped his mind retreat from
the darkness. He couldn�t let Brooklyn near him anymore, it was razing down his
defences and he would end up insane.

He always acted as if nothing could scare him. After
his life in the Abbey, he knew he had to act up as the cocky one, proud and
egoistic, he knew he had to become the stronger one around, so nothing could
scare him never ever again.

That because, if one ever could scare him, this was
Boris. All the boys at the Abbey were frightened by him, Tala and the rest of
the Demolition Boys -now Blitzkrieg Boys, or NeoBorg- were no exception.

He swore to himself to grow and stop being afraid of
Boris, but it never worked out. He could hide it pretty well to anyone but his
fellow Russians, but he still was afraid of Boris.

Nothing else, nothing else...

He was not afraid of Brooklyn�

�Hey��

He froze.

He couldn�t even move as he looked up, dread filling
him up as he met, once again, with the orange head�s eyes, green depths
concealing and confusing.

He was standing there, a grin on his face, smiling at him,
and with the dread something else filled Kai�s panicked mind� something he could
not recognize, akin to warmth, but not quite it. It was hidden behind the wave
of anguish and despair.

The orange headed teen wasn�t even moving, merely
smiling, and still, it caused Kai�s control to shatter in a second.

The slate haired teen tightened his hands into fists,
grabbing the ground and the grass at his sides in an attempt to focus, it was
just Brooklyn, it was just�

An image of Zeus flickered before his slightly
unfocused eyes but Kai willed himself not to be dragged away but the rush of memories.

In a great effort, he managed not to shudder under the
piercing gaze, and with an even greater strain and effort, he looked straight
into Brooklyn�s eyes.

�What do you want?!� he sounded harsh and unpleasant,
but this was better than squeaking anyway; he ignored the fact that his voice
was holding a light panicked tone into it. Light.

Brooklyn�s smile never faltered, and again Kai thought
how similar they were, both hiding under a mask of deceiving� but the thought
was replaced by Zeus, and then the BitBeast turned into the Black Phoenix, and
he suddenly felt light headed.

�No!� he
told himself.

�You disappeared last night, and I wanted to know� how
are your hands?�

Kai froze once more.

How could he know? Of all people, not even Tala knew.
And they were close friends, as close as anyone with their dark past could have
been.

Kai bit his tongue to the point of drawing blood in
order to stop himself from trembling. He couldn�t take
this.

Coppery liquid filled his mouth and for a single
moment he had the urge to spit it on the perfect smile the older teen was
offering him, but instead he swallowed it, almost doubling over in disgust at
the metallic taste.

It all made him sick, he just
wanted to go away�

�How�� he gritted his teeth, his voice didn�t sound
like him at all.

�That�s a secret, Kai,� Brooklyn�s eyes held a defined
quality of slyness that the other teen did not like.

He was not scared of Brooklyn, damn it!

Zeus� wielder shook his head, seeing Kai�s uneasiness,
and decided to add, �it was obvious by the way you
keep them,� he smiled whilst his eyes trailed to Kai�s tense hands. �They have
to hurt, right?�

Kai retreated lightly, until his back was pressed
against the tree behind him, eyes watching every move of the older teen.
Brooklyn seemed not aware of the tension he caused in the slate haired blader,
and leaning over him he brushed the back of his hand against Kai�s cheek,
mumbling near his ear, �take care of yourself, ok?�

Without even knowing it, Kai reacted viciously and
grabbed Brooklyn�s wrist, tightly pushing the hand away from him, hatred
flashing in his eyes, the fear and the confusion forgotten for a single moment.

�Don�t. Ever Touch. Me. Again,� he growled, narrowed
eyes. �I don�t like being touched�.

Suddenly, Brooklyn�s expression changed. The carefree
and happy mask melted away, leaving him looking completely serious, eyes almost
flashing as he replied, �and do you know what I
don�t like? I don�t like being told what to do��

Kai let go of the other�s wrist, gasping softly,
shocked by the sudden change. He was not lying, he was deathly serious. The
Phoenix�s soft trembles became suddenly stronger as he searched frantically for
a way to escape Brooklyn.

Wait, did he really thought to escape? He never ran
away, never had.

But... he felt like he was trapped.

�If this is a threat, I am not afraid,� he stated.

He hoped he looked enough convincing, because his
voice really wasn�t that much.

But he did not fear Brooklyn, he did not.

Brooklyn�s serious expression turned into a sly smirk,
eyes flashing with mirth and malice.

�Well� you should be,� he stated, smirk growing.

Kai paled slightly; once more Brooklyn searched for
his eyes, green clashing against crimson, and again, Kai found himself
attracted by them. He rejected the feeling with all his being, but all the same
something inside him ached in need for it.

The moment was broken by a well known voice, �Kai?
Where are you?�

Kai snapped out of his shock and hastily pushed
Brooklyn away, eager to go away, as far as he could from him; but he was able
to glare in the general direction in which he knew Brooklyn was, sending a last
remark, one of his usual, �stay away from me!� but was not able to turn
properly, he did not want to meet the green pools.

Then he half ran towards Rei, the one who called for
him.

Brooklyn stared with mild, bright eyes, as Kai reached
the Neko-Jinn, and the two started speaking about something he could not hear,
but he cared nothing.

Slowly he let himself lean against the same tree Kai
was before, closing briefly his eyes, breathing deeply the warm air, then his
green eyes opened once more, a sly grin making his appearance on his lips.

�But do you know what I like, Kai?� he whispered
softly to no one, eyes sparkling with delight. �I like challenges��

��

�Kai� hell, you look like you were hit by a typhoon��
Rei laughed happily while he and the slate haired teen walked through the garden
towards the main stadium. �And you know what? It took me a whole lot of
thinking to figure out where you went. I wanted to speak to you, and��

Kai wasn�t hearing a single word Rei was saying. There
was a loud buzzing in his ears and he couldn�t concentrate, because before his
opened eyes a single image continued plaguing him.

It was a Dark beast, even darker than Zeus would ever
be. Eyes as red as blood, feathers of the deepest black, hatred and evilness
emanating from her body�

That was it. The moment he saw Zeus, during his first
match with Brooklyn, the sight of that beast made Kai remember another creature
he longed to forget forever. They had the same hatred filled eyes, the same
aura of evil around them, but contrariwise of him with Black Dranzer, Brooklyn
could control Zeus.

At least he could most of the time. A slip off had
been the battle against Tyson, and there Kai saw how much he and the orange
haired freak were similar. But if Brooklyn did not realize the fierce strength
of his Beast, otherwise Kai could.

He�d a Beast like Zeus, and it had been hard to get
rid of it before it was too late.

Black Dranzer, she still haunted him in his sleep, and
having to confront with Brooklyn, could only worsen things out. Not to mention
Brooklyn himself was a cause of Kai�s distress.

The slate haired teen still couldn�t understand what
scared him about the orange haired freak, but something had to�

Kai froze, not aware of Rei�s confusion, and realized
he actually thought he was scared by Brooklyn.

He wasn�t, no one could scare him, no one�

�Kai, are you ok? Kai?�

Crimson eyes trailed down to his aching hands, flashes
of the fight against him once again showing up, and the trembling
returned.

Every time the green eyes looked at him. Every time he
heard the orange haired teen�s voice. Every time he felt he was anywhere near�

Hurt.

He couldn�t deny anymore the truth, not when every
time he saw Brooklyn he lost control over himself.

�Kai? Why are you trembling?! Kai, can you hear me?!� Rei
was trying without much luck, to shake his friend out of his trance, and was
scared out of his wits in seeing Kai tremble, for no good reason.

Kai felt cold inside as he accepted an undeniable
truth. He was deeply afraid of Brooklyn.

��

Cepheus: the
first chapter is up. I have another idea for a BrooklynKai fic but I won�t be
working on it unless I finish some of my other stories before. If you are
interested in them, I am a huge TalaKai lover and all my fics apart two are
centred on this pairing.

Review please! Show me you care!
