Chapter Text
Me and Anthony knew each other ten years now. I remember how I was new in America and when i met him we were both making fun of how we both don't know much English. Yeah, good old times... Even throught the fact he's five years older, he was always good friend to me, and i didn't care what my step father told you.
,,Umm World to Kurayami, are you okay toots?'' He waved his hand infront of my face and i stopped in my thoughts.
,,Yeah i was just thinking about old times, sorry.'' I laughed and pushed his hand away.
,,Okay toots, but if it's somethin' more than just thinking about old times tell me okay?'' He looked worried, but i really didn't think about anything else, murdering always helped me with stress so i was okay.
,,I will, Anthony. I promise.'' I smiled at him, he nodded and continued.
,,So, like i told you. I met some really handsome guy, it's few weeks now and i-''
,,HOLD ON! You know him few weeks and didn't tell me about it?! Anthony when you find handsome guy tell me!''
,,What am i doing toots?'' He teasingly smiled at you and i huffed.
,,Yeah but you waited FEW WEEKS'' I said dramatically and he playfully rolled his eyes.
,,Can i continue now toots?''
,,Yep''
,,Alright.'' He took deep breath and smiled at me with stars in his eyes. ,,I was thinking that i can invite him here so you two could meet!'' I stared at him two minutes, i didn't know how to response. He never wanted me to meet someone he wanted to fuck. Everytime he invited somebody it was because he wanted somebody for me. But if he said that this guy is handsome and he wants to invite him, he means it.
,,Toots? Are you ok? You don't look happy for me..''
,,I am!'' I quickly smiled and took his hands in mine ,,Anthony of course i am happy for you! After all is time for you to find someone, you're in your 30s''
,,Do you want to tell me that i'm old?'' He said playfully.
,,NOOOOO, nononononononono. OF COURSE NOT. You're just in age when you could find partner on live not just for one night.'' I gave him serious look, and he answered with sweet smile.
,,Don't worry toots, maybe i will once find someone. But i'm not planning it now.''
,,Then why do you want to invite him? NOOOOOOO, Don't tell me you want... NOO''
,,Wrong guess toots! I was thinking that someday i can be with him so he needs to meet you!'' After these words i sighed, i had time to find someone.
,,And what is his name?''
,,Alastor''
,,The radio star?''
,,That's him''
,,From rich to celebrities?'' I teasingly smiled at him.
,,What can i say, i'm soooo hot'' At this words we both laughed.
,,By the way toots...''
,,Yes?''
,,You know how i told you that i was thinking about inventing him?''
,,Yes??''
,,I already did.'' I almost choked after his words.
,,WHAT? AND WHEN WILL HE COME?!''
,,Tomorrow... On dinner...'' Oh if look could kill.. I took a deep breath.
,,Okay, that's fine, it's on dinner.... OHMYGODIDON'THAVEDRESSIWILLLOOKLIKEHOMELESSNOOOOOOOO''
,,Toots don't worry about clothes, you can always borrow mine'' He smiled at you and you stopped panicking and smiled back at him.
,,Thanks Anthony.''
After this conversation with Anthony, He showed me some clothes you could like.
,,Do i look like some kind of whore Anthony? There’s no chance in this world that you will make me wear this infront of him!” I screamed meanwhile you were hiding in his closet.
,,Come on Kurayami! You can’t hide forever in my closet, and i bet that you don’t look that bad!” Anthony laughed at how childish i can be.
,,No chance! It don’t look bad but i’m showing too much skin! If that i will stay here means that i’m safe, i’m gonna live here!” He laughed at this and you were red.
,,Don't laugh at me!''
,,I can't help it toots!'' He said while he tried not to laugh.
I sighed and came from the closet.
,,Are you happy now?” There was annoyed tone in my voice, but He didn’t care about it. He was just thinking that i'm really showing much skin.
He hummed and i raised my eyebrow in question. ,,Turn around” He finally said and i did as he said.
,,Don’t know what are ya talking’ about toots! You look perfect even if you show much skin”
I look like a whore Anthony. I would prefer some sweater...” i looked at him and he had worried expression.
,,You still haven't gotten out of what he did to you, right?” I nodded and He Hugged me.
,,you told me that you will tell me if he’ll try again... I don’t want you to be disgusted by showing much skin just because of your step father” i snuggled up to him and whispered little “thank you”
After this i finally chose clothes (it was a suit for women, i don’t even know Why Anthony have it) and then me and Anthony watched movie and you fell asleep on his shoulder.
Next morning i woke up on the couch, and Anthony nowhere to be found.
,,Anthony?'' No respond..
,,Calm down Kurayami, maybe he just went to the mall buy something on that dinner. Yep.'' I talked to myself and then i noticed, that you can smell spaghetti. Of course! He's cooking! I got into kitchen and then i hugged Anthony.
,,Whoa! Toots you scared me!'' He laughed and i looked at him with innocent eyes.
,,I'm sorry.. I thought you left me here..''
,,You know i won't ever leave you toots'' He smiled at me and pat my head, i smiled at him in response.
,,What time it is?''
,,Four''
,,In the morning?!'' He laughed at my reaction
,,No toots, soon will be evening''
,,WHY DIDN'T YOU WAKE ME UP?! WHEN WILL ALASTOR COME?!''
,,Chill toots!'' He laughed ,,He will be there before six'' Oh how he regretted this words.
,,BEFORE SIX?! I DIDN'T EVEN TOOK A SHOWER!'' Yeaah, that was my smallest problem.. I wanted to kill somebody before he comes, but whatever. I can go at night can't you?
,,Then take shower now toots''
,,That's what imma gonna do BITCH'' I said dramatically and left the kitchen. He only laughed at that.
*ANTHONY'S POV* (His pov will be there rarely but psst)
Kurayami left me in the kitchen and i continued in cooking, it was almost ready and when i got it on plates i heard a phone. Weird Alastor doesn't have number to our house. I took the phone and i heard girl. That girl was Kurayami's sister.
,,Hey Eve! I just wanted to tell you that-''
,,Wrong person Aiko'' I laughed and she was quiet for a while.
,,Sorry Anthony! Can you call me Kurayami please?''
,,She's in shower babe.''
,,Oh. Then just tell her that i called.'' Before i could respond she ended the call. Fuck it. I went to the bathroom doors and i knocked.
*YOUR POV*
When i turned off the water i heard a knock.
,,Yes?''
,,Your sister called.''
I got little nervous. She called just when she really needed because she stayed in Japan.
,,What did she said?''
,,She just told me to tell you that she called''
,,Okay?'' I put on my towel and i came out from bathroom.
,,I will call her back while i'm gonna change into that suit okay?''
,,Alright toots'' He knew i have a secret, but if it's something with my family he doesn't even care much, me and my family had past 10 years relationship like friends that didn't see each other from middle school.
,,Anthony are you okay?''
,,Just thinkin' don't worry'' He laughed and i smiled and we both leaved. I left to my room, and called my sister while i was changing.
,,Hey Aiko. What did you want?''
,,Mom is in hospital.. She want you to come..'' I froze, suit pants i wanted to get on fell on the ground.
,,Y-You mean it?'' She was quiet for 5 seconds and then i heard group of people laughing.
,,Got ya sis! Of course i don't! Step dad just wanted to make fun of you!'' Great now even she's with him..
,,You know what Aiko? I don't have time on this! Go bother somebody else! And don't call until something really happens!!'' I screamed at her and threw my phone so it broke.
,,Tch. Bitch... I HATE YOU!'' I threw my framed photo of my stepfather and me when i was nine trough the window.
my bedroom doors went open and i saw Anthony with worried look in his eyes, i was just in suit shirt and in panties, but He didn’t care. He was scared that i did something to yourself. i quickly turned to face him. Tears in my eyes, when He saw mine broken expression He quickly walked to me and hugged me.
,,What happened babe? Something with your mother?’’
,,I just.... My sister is on his side now too... No one believes me! My mother, my grandma and now not even my twin...
,,shh toots. You have me... I believe you, and if you’ll tell Alastor i’m sure he’ll be on your side too..
I hugged him. Now i NEEDED to kill someone. I needed your stress to go away. After all if a celebrity is going to meet me, i have to be in best condition.
I pulled from the hug. ,,I will go on walk for 30 minutes. If he’s gonna be here sooner call me on my second phone”
He titled his head ,,Why on the second one?’’
I started nervously laughing. ,,Well...Heh..You know...I...hehe... yeeted that first on the floor heh” I started laughing.
,,You’re sometimes really a dumbass ya know?”
I laughed. ,, Well i’ll go before He comes. I want to be back early” I took my knife and something to cover my dress so i won’t be from blood. Oh and a lighter so i can get care of that body.
When i wanted to leave i heard Anthony’s voice. ,,I know Why lighter and that second thing, but Why a knife?’’ I turned to face him
,, Seriously? There are serial killers out there Anthony. Two!’’
,, makes sense.. Enjoy your walk toots and don’t come late!’’
Don’t worry Anthony!’’ With this words i took your gloves and left.
I was outside mine and Anthony's house and i sighed. ,,Guess i will today kill someone innocent. I don't have time to waste.''
I then looked if Alastor isn't near, and then i walked to the nearest bar with alley. I came into alley and i saw some totally drunk girl laying there. It's really big chance that somebody raped her. ,,Poor little thing'' I said as she looked at you with tears in her eyes. ,,Don't worry i will help you out of this'' I helped her to stand and hugged her. But little does she know she met killer, i took my knife and stabbed her into her back. When she was on the ground again i took her body and i disappeared in the dark. When you donť have wood or coal use someones body. ,,Oh sugar... How i wish i could eat you..'' Just when i though about how nice meat she can have, my mouth watered. ,,But no! I have today something better!'' When i put out the fire, i left the forest. When i was under street lamp i noticed that i have bloodied pants. I sighed and runned back home. I was in house, i noticed that Anthony is showering so i had a chance to go to my room. When i was in my room i got from that bloodied pants and looked at them ,,Fuck.'' I then tried to look for new pants but only thing i could find was skirt and really thighs socks. I have no idea how it's called. When i looked everywhere, i sighed. ,,Guess i will have to wear this..'' When i were dressed again, i took of my gloves and got downstairs. *ANTHONY'S POV* I got from shower and dressed best i could. When i was dressing i heard doors. Guess Kurayami is here. When i got downstairs i saw kurayami in skirt and some black socks over her knees. ,,Damn toots. I though you don't like dressing like this'' ,,Well some weirdo destroyed my pants and i don't have anything else. Do you have problem?'' She had teasing smile on her face and i laughed. I sometimes don't know if it's scary or adorable. ,,Oh i'm not that surprised anymore. Anyways he's gonna be here any moment now'' I said and i got to the kitchen *YOUR POV*
Any moment? Oof I'm not ready on this.....
I went on my balcony and took one cigarette, i hate smoking but when i'm in big stress i can't control myself.
,,Come on Kurayami! It's just handsome guy.'' I told myself before i lightened cigarette.
*ANTHONY'S POV*
When i was controlling if everything is okay i hear a knock on front doors. SHIT HE'S HERE.
I ran to the doors and opened.
There he was. Tall handsome guy with brown hairs and eyes behind glasses, of course he had smile on his face like always.
,, Hello my dear!''
,,Hi Al! My friend will be down soon, she just... What is she even doing?''
,,That's alright, we can wait can't we?''
,,Y-yeaah.. Look before she comes. I have to tell you few things about her'' He raised an eyebrow and he had now just closed-lip smile.
,,Don't ask her about her father, sister or brothers. You can ask on her mother but be careful, she's kinda sensitive on this themes. hehe'' I nervously laughed and he nodded.
,,Don't worry if this themes makes our little deerling uncomfortable we don't have to talk about them.'' I nodded and moved from doors.
,,Okay you can come in. Right into kitchen, like i said she will be here soon.'' We left to the kitchen and waited on her.
We talked five minutes, and then i heard steps.
,,She's heree'' I said happily. And then i saw her, She had her long hair in messy bun.
*YOUR POV*
I came down and i saw Anthony an Alastor already in kitchen waiting on me.
,,Oh Kurayami! Alastor this is Kurayami like i told you about her, Kurayami this is Alastor.''
Alastor stood, took my hand and he kissed my hand.
,,Nice to meet you my dear.'' Fuck... I never met gentleman like this before.
,,Nice to meet you too'' I nodded and he released my hand from his grab.
,,I'm sorry that you had to wait on me. I didn't realise that you're already here.''
Dinner went pretty well, i was pretty surprised that he didn't ask about anything about my family. I noticed that Alastor kinda looked like male version of me. Just prettier with glasses and taller.
After dinner Anthony told us to talk while he'll go for something.
,,Sooo... Any guestions?''
,,Only one.''
I titled my head and smiled ,,Yes?''
,,Why are you in New Orleans alone?''
I giggled ,,I'm not alone. I have Anthony''
,,I mean without family. Just you.'' He was pretty curious about this. Yes he never cared about anyone else's personal life, but he would like to know how can parents let fifteen years old kid live alone in New Orleans for ten years.
I sighed.
,,You know... My mother told me it's best way to... Run away from... My curse... It only become worse heh.. Not like anyone cares...''
,,I see..''
I looked at him and smiled, then he noticed that i'm staring and smiled back.
,,I'm back!'' Anthony came to us with three glasses and vine.
,,Anthony'' I laughed ,,It was just dinner, we don't celebrate anything''
,,Oh yes we do babe. You're in America 10 years today!''
,,So that's why you invented Al? Or?''
,,Yes, but no. I wanted you to meet him and i wanted him to celebrate with us. He told me that he don't celebrate much so i wanted him to join us!''
Our little party was pretty boring. To me. Anthony took Alastor just for himself s i was lonely again.
~Time skip~
It was two in the morning, Alastor was gone for three hours or more. I couln't sleep so i went back to the alleys. This time, with mask.
I heard screaming for help so i ran there. Normally when i'm killing i show them my face before they die. Oh how nice is when they get to know that it was me the whole time! But this time i didn't took it off. I felt someone's present. After i killed her i finally saw him. He was sitting on ground near wall holding his stomach. I didn't saw his face. I came closer and took long part of my white dress. I Took his hands off his stomach and I bandaged his wound. That bitch used his own knife to stab him. He looked at me then and when i wanted to leave i heard his voice.
,,Why did you help me?''
I giggled ,,Because you're practically my colleague.'' And then i walked away.
When i was back in my room i got into clean clothes and i laid in my bed. Slowly i started to fall asleep.
~time skip~
,,Toots wake up! You're going somewhere'' i heard from downstairs and i looked at my phone.
5:00 am.
Are you kidding me?
,,Anthony you know that i have job next week! Let me sleep!''
He opened the doors, walked t your bed and started shaking with you.
,,Yeah but i promised to Al that you will meet him before six'' My eyes widened.
,,You fucking kidding me?!'' I walked out of my bed and started to change clothes.
,,Why won't you go yourself?!''
,,Meh, that man isn't gay. And i noticed your face when he kissed your hand toots'' He said teasingly an my face felt hot.
,,Alright that's it.'' I took my shirt on sleeping off and i threw it at his face, then i started to dress again. I was in my school uniform from Japan. I love that dress. Of course because it's part of me when i was a teen, not because i didn't grow since i was 14.
,,And how did you found out that he's not gay?'' I said while i was brushing my hair.
,,I never met gentleman who is gay'' He threw my shirt at my bed.
,,Maybe because you're only gay you met?'' I said teasingly ,,And don't tell me that it's not true. Half of the boys you sleep with are drunk that much that one of them called me monkey.''
,,It's not his problem that you look like fluff ball when you're after shower'' He laughed.
,,Do you have something against my hair?''
,,Well they're little too long.''
,,Long? They're under my knees! You can't call this long!''
,,you kiddin' me babe?''
,,Of course i am! I know they're long but i can't do with it any-'' Anthony came to me. He took the opportunity to grab the scissors and cut my hair so that my hair was shoulder-length.
,,Thing..'' I finished and looked into mirror.
,,Oh my god... Father's going to kill me!''
,,It was the best way suga'... I'm sorry but your father controlled you long enough! You can do what you want! He's why you're here, and still. You have to do what he says? No you don't! I want to help you toots! I really want! But you have secret! And i can't help you if you won't tell me what's wrong...''
,,I...'' I closed my eyes and turned to him. ,,You have to promise me something...'' He nodded and i continued now with opened teary gaze ,,You won't run away if i will tell you...'' He nodded.
,,I... I am half demon...'' Anthony's eyes widened and he laughed nervously.
,,Kurayami.. You know demons don't-''
,,I mean it Anthony... The reason why you never met my real dad and why i don't talk about him... It's not because he was bad dad or that he died.... It's because he's incubus and he had to leave...''
,,You're telling me that... the reason why boys in the club was attracted to you and when you leaved the wasn't''
,,Was because of my powers... I can't control it Anthony! Since i landed on my head i don't know who i am! I'm here because i almost killed my step father! I AM THE SECOND SERIAL KILLER! My demonic side wants to come out since my mom told me about it... I-I-....'' Anthony hugged me and tried to calm me down.
,,Shh toots... Everything is gonna be okay...''
,, I think this is my last day...''
,,Than you should go. I know, you would love to stay and be whole day with me watching tv. But. If that your dad is incubus is true. Then Hell exists. And you should find someone who will one day find you there..''
,,T-Thanks Anthony..'' I said waved at him and leaved.
Now with short hair and with glassy eyes i walked on streets of New Orleans. Since Alastor is Radio star i knew exactly where to find him. Mimzy's Bar, or Bistro. Maybe both. Anyways, came in and of course i saw Alastor sitting on bar chair drinking coffee. I came to him.
,,Well hello my dear!'' He turned to face me and my eyes widened. I didn't expect this.
,,Hi Alastor. Anthony told me that he promised you that i will meet you here''
,,i'm glad that he told you, i thought that he'll fall asleep''
,,He never sleep when i'm gone. He would stay awake whole night if that means he will be there when i'll come. So.. Did you want something or you just wanted to make sure that no one will look after me if i will miss?'' His eyes widened.
*ALASTORS POV*
My eyes widened. How does she know?
,,Don't play dumb Alastor. You know very well what i mean. but you should know one thing.... I am the one who stopped the bleeding. Don't think that i didn't saw that bound on your stomach.'' She smiled teasingly.
,,My, my. You're smarter than i though. What will you do now when you know who i really am?'' My face darkened, i was surprised that she didn't react with words ''Oh my god don't kill me!'' instead of it her smile got bigger.
,,Nothing. I already told you that you're kinda my colleague. Plus even if i tried to inform police about that, they would laugh in my face. You're famous radio star and i? I am just girl from Tokyo. Is that all?'' She asked and when i nodded she left bar. This girl is quiet interesting. Maybe i can wait with killing her.
When i thought i finished all i wanted before my job i heard doors once more and from behind me her voice.
,,Oh and. See you in afterlife mister Alastor.'' Before i turned she was gone again.
~Time Skip~
It was late evening, when one of my colleagues came to me with newspaper.
,,Alastor you wont believe that''
,,What is it? I don't have much time can't it wait?''
,,I'm afraid that this can't wait!'' He gave me newspaper and when i finished reading i saw picture. I couln't believe my eyes.
,,This is what you're gonna talk about now! Oh can you imagine how many people will listen to our radio now when after all these murders is here this?
When my break ended i set on my chair ready to go live.
,,My dear listeners! Ladies and Gentleman, i'm here with sad news. This evening was found dead body of Kurayami Evelyn Sato. This time was not cause of dead murder by one of the serial killers, this time it was suicide! Yes you hear well! Kurayami shoot herself in right side of her head. All i can say to this case is. Rest in peace little deer... And to forget on these terrible things happening, we have also good news!''
~Time skip~
I finished early after i told boss that i she was a friend of mine. I couln't help myself, i wanted to see where it happened, since police got stuck on highway.
When i got near crime scene, there was surprisingly just Anthony running to her dead body.
*ANTHONY'S POV*
When i heard news about Kurayami i ran as fast as i could into the forest where i knew she would do it.
When i saw her i started crying. There was a lot of blood coming from her head, but she was there so peacefully. If there wasn't so much blood it would look like she's sleeping.
,,EVELYN?'' She didn't move, she was really...
,,NOOO!!! EVELYN WAKE UP!'' I screamed while i was running to her.
,,Anthony....'' She wasn't dead.. not yet! She opened her eyes, not fully but enough to see me.
,,Evelyn...'' I said while tear was running on my cheek. She wanted to put her hand on my cheek but she was too weak so i helped her.
,,Don't cry over me.. I cried enough for us both...'' i closed my eyes I snuggled up to her hand.
,,Don't leave me here Eve....'' I opened my eyes and i saw tear running on her cheek right into pool of blood.
,,I'm sorry...''
My grip on her hand tightened.
,,This wasn't our last adventure....See you in afterlife..... Anthony...'' She gave me a weak smile and then the life in her eyes, faded away...
,,Kurayami..'' I whispered her name and then i hugged her lifeless body.
