The Black Dawn Rises.. [Fin]

[Kain "Akatsuki" Elric]

Kain would find himself leaving what he considered his new home, drawn to his past life...his past lie. Walking down the streets Kain would find himself in the outskirts of the city, looking at his old home. He stared momentarily at the building before walking up to the house and entering it. The house would be clean, flinching at the memories he shrugged them away, He would not feel sorrow. Kain walked about the old house before checking his old room. He looked at the various things that was him. The past that he had held dearly, he had not been a perfect child, in fact he was somewhat of a thug in town. But he had loved his family and they had done there best to protect him. He sighed flipping through his old things before walking out of his room and to where his parent's had fallen. No doubt everyone died, and he himself was most likely thought the same, maybe not. Hardly anyone other then his family would care in the least, and surely they had died.
Kain walked down the stairs into his parents room and felt sorrow take his heart. He wept for them with great tears, wishing maybe that he could have helped them, or died with them. He began to open there closet and look at the items that lay inside, since the nightmare had begun they held a new light. He felt sick as he looked at a book, the marked page told of vampires, and other fabled creatures. He shuddered. He had cared for his parent's so much...and they were dead. He closed the book before getting a back pack and filling it with some random things. He then closed the door and looted the place for money.
Leaving he left behind all that he knew, this was his life now. As he walked and turned a corner Kain noticed something else...a women he had loved, she had even been his girlfriend for a few years. He smiled upon seeing her and felt a string tug at his heart, someone he had known. Then it happened, from his spot he had not been seen, but a guy approached her...and it hadn't been just any man. It had been Kain's worst enemy. Kain would watch in horror as the man whom he hated so well walked up to his sweet heart and kissed her with a passion. His hands caressed her in ways that Kain had dreamed of. Kain himself hadn't been dead for more then a week or two tops and he was not missed. Inside he screamed, how could this be!?! The women he loved was with the man he hated so well! He felt poison seep into his body and decay what he was. Kain watched the man touch her and then bolted from them both.
Running with a great stride he would run till he was was near the subway. He cringed silently, his life was trashed in about a week, who would ever care?! Kain sat there for hours hating everything around him, swallowed up by darkness and torn asunder all in a short amount of time, how could anyone take this. Kain looked up only to once more see the man he despised walk into a near ally way. Kain began to laugh as he went into an insane rage. He was going to beat the living hell from this man, his mind a chaotic mess. Getting up and walking into the alleyway Kain took up a near by Crow bar, thanks to the local thugs leaving it behind. Sneaking up behind the one he loathed Kain struck out with his crowbar and lashed out striking him several times, "You son of a bitch!?!? Who the hell to you thing you are you Ass!" He screamed and then laughed as he let his insanity build and boil over. Kain would beat the man senseless and then walk off after spitting on him. Live or die, Kain did not care. It was beginning to darken now as Kain once more ran He would find himself in a secluded area shuddering, he was so angry, so hurt. How could he survive this?
Kain looked up at the dark sky and scream his heart out. "I am the black dawn!!" He yelled to the heavens with rage. "And I am the unloved! I will Serve my new master and bring destruction upon all who cross her path!!" HE shuddered as he defied who ever or what ever might hear his cries of insanity. He panted gritting his teeth hard. "And I hate..."

[··¤ Zen Kamei ¤··]

A shadow had sneaked up behind Kain, she had heard him scream. So full of hate, anguish, a certain loathing for all around him. She was... amused, if anything, but she also felt some sort of pity forming within her gut. She had done this to him, she had destroyed his world comepletely. It was completely her fault. She had seen him in the Subway, watched as his rage boiled over into selfish hate. And she could smell the blood upon him, the blood of a lover, but one who had one love in an unfair way. Kain was to be cursed, he was to start a new beginning, for everyone, all of them thought him dead.
She slipped behind Kain like a shadow, silent and deadly, as if she were a reaper, a bringer of death, calling. Her cold hand reached out and tenderly touched his neck from behind. His hatred was growing, his strength, his emptiness that would drive him to do anything for her demonic wishes.
"The Black Dawn..." She whispered, licking a smear of blood from his neck. "What drives you to be so... cruel, Kain?" She whispered quietly. A smirk then found its way to her faintly blue hued lips as she thought to herself. She then spoke softly in that same melodic voice she had when they first met. "Does it hurt Kain..?"

[Kain "Akatsuki" Elric]

Kain sat there, he had felt the presence of being watched, known that maybe someone had been following him, like a second instinct. It was odd, but he found an odd tranquility with her around, as if he was not alone. The intensity of his rage made him shudder a few times as he attempted enough control to even think, "Yes, the black dawn..." He whispered on the air. Kain took a moment to think, "He got what came to him...you saw the betrayal...the way they loved..I had to destroy it...I've been dead for only a week, maybe a week and a half..and..and this happens!?!" He laughed, "He got his punishment....I should have made sure he was dead.."Kain laughed again and shrugged. Her voice was better then any could describe. "And hurt seems like such an understatement... burns, infects, dissolves, rots..Much better terms...Drowns even." Kain sighed and shuddered again, so much on his mind caused his mind to be chaotic and unpredicatble.

[··¤ Zen Kamei ¤··]

"Meet me at the Coven tonight, Kain.." She whispered softly. Zen bowed silently and slipped away into the darkness of the night, a low chuckle was all that could be heard, before her divine figure disappeared into the shadows. Someone had hurt him, and she did not take it lightly. Zen, though she seemed uncaring and hateful was enraged by this event that had so wounded her precious tool of destruction. She would not stand for such a trecherous snake to live upon these streets. She smelled the air, searching for that scent she had caught earlier. She stalked her prey like a true beast, hunting her down. She would never draw another breath after tonight. The one she followed glanced back, nervous, feeling as if there was something stalking her. Zen just simply stood still, her stale gold eyes fierce icy and unwavering as she stared towards her prey, a merciless blood lust glinting in her eyes as they flashed a bright golden yellow. Thw woman she stalked blushed out of embarrassment of being noticed and glanced away quickly, continuing on her way. She refused to look back again, in fear of once again meeting those deadly, cold eyes. Zen lurked in the shadows, watching and waiting, learning all she could, until she was ready to make the kill. The woman definately did not have her flavor, for fear was her emotion, and Zen was attracted to love. How disgusting. Zen had a mission, and it was to be completed. Surely Kain would be happy with her. Zen scowled, why did she want Kain to be happy with her actions? She lurked in the shadows like death, almost seeming to be a living breathing entity within the darkness. She watched the woman slip into to her home, where Zen would intrude. Swiftly Zen slipped into the woman's house, silent, unnnoticed like a simple breeze. She even went unseen. Again she waited and watched, for patience was what made the kill worth it..
Once the womans back was turned, Zen was tempted to attack. But no, she would wait until the perfect time to exact her revenge upon this harlot. Within the blink of an eye, Zen was upon her prey, hissing into her ear that if she dare move, it was all over. But the woman didnt understand, she struggled and tried to scream out. But Zen gripped her face and mouth with an iron grip, not quite hard enough to crush the jawbones, but hard enough to make her cry out in pain. Zen smirked, it was like ecstacy listening to the woman in her grip writhe and cry out in pain. She wondered how to kill her, hissing into the ear of her victim with pure malice, her eyes glowing a fierce golden yellow.
"Never again shall you hurt my precious Kain.." Zen grinned widly, her blue hued lips pulling back, bearing her perfectly shaped, pearly white and venom tipped fangs, which glinted in the light. Zen grinned and held a hand over the womans mouth, digging her fangs mercilessly into the tender flesh of her neck, their sharp tips ripping and shredding through the muscle and tissue, causing the woman to let out a muffled scream, tears streaming down her cheeks as she attempted to beg and plead the dark angel to let her live. But there was no hope. Zen was ruthless, and she would achieve what she wanted, and it didnt matter how. Zen bit down and drew thr hot blood into her mouth, drinking it down almost hungrily. After weakening her prey enough to stop her struggling, she clamped her jaws down and ripped out a large chunk of flesh from the side of the woman's neck. This was the end, but she wasnt going to let her die so easily. She teased and but at the wound, and but into her shoulder and arms mercilessly, leaving deep gashes due to her carelessness. She didnt care about damaging the flesh, or wounding the human.
Zen finally smirked, now nearing the end of her merciless torture upon this poor pitiful human soul. She dug her claws into the womans back, ripping and tearing through the tendons and the flesh, causing her to scream and cry out in agony and excrutiating pain.
"Now I will crush you... Like you crushed my precious tool..." Zen hissed into the womans ear. She had reached the womans chest cavity, and her icy cold hand was around her beating heart. The woman gasped at the sudden coldness, and tryed to scream out, vomiting blood while doing so. Zen just smirked and slowly restracted her arm from within the woman's chest. She was ripping out her beating heart. With one final scream, Zen gripped the back of her victims neck and ripped her heart from her chest with a sickening crack, she snapped her neck and tossed her mangled body onto the floor, gazing at the heart within her hand. She walked into the kitchen and looked upon the counter, a smirk finding its way upon her cool, blue hued lips. How convient, a box placed upon the counter just as if it were meant for this occasion. She emptied the box, wrapped the heart in a cloth and enclosed it inside. Afterwards she slipped out into the cover of the darkness, and vanished into the shadows.
Zen slipped into the Main hall of the coven, and put the box on the table, a tag upon it reading.

'For Kain Only. No other eyes shall see the contents of this box, for if they do I will do the exact same as I did to this woman's heart. -Zen-'

The vampire maiden then slipped into her study, and waited for Kain to find his gift..
"A special gift.. for the Rising of the Black Dawn..." Zen whispered as she gazed into the darkness of her study, her stale golden eyes unwavering, and her lips curled into the most devious of grins. She had accomplished her mission, and done as she wished to do, and she was no doubt pleased with it. She was curious to see Kain's reaction to the womans heart that lay within the small black box. Was he nothing but a pathetic mortal? Or did he have enough hate within his black soul to find pure joy in what she had done.. Would she please him?

[Kain "Akatsuki" Elric]

Kain nodded quickly, he had always felt a certain calmness pass over him when Zen was near. It was as if the darkness inside him suddenly reached out to the greater force and in doing so, it became less ragged.
Slowly rising from his seat Kain smiled a dark sadistic smile as he pointed out as if to the man he had beaten could hear and see him. "I am Kain Elric..I have become Evil and Destroyed your world..." He stated with almost a pride about him, he felt that it was right for him to say that phrase, as if it was an honorable ritual. Smirking in a defiant angry manner, full of animosity and anger he laughed a small chuckle before walking off. Tonight was his night to do as he damn well pleased, in fact from this point on he might do as he damn well pleased. Nothing was holding him back, stopping him. He no longer had restraints on him as he had before. He was something else then he had been only a week or two, a new type of person who is slowly learning of the truth.
"Heh.." He muttered satisfied with his new persona and life style, "This...is going to be fun.." He muttered as he realized the power he could gain from such knowledge that he now possessed. He found he didn't want the things he had desired a week or two ago, he desired destruction and suffering to be unleashed upon the world. "A Black dawn is rising and it will consume everything..." He laughed again as he walked down the cold streets alone.
"I am Kain Elric, The Black Dawn!!" He screamed again into the night air, it felt so...wonderful to finally awaken to what he was. Continuing his path with a silent smirk he felt like he owned a new part of the world, as if power was growing inside him, making his soul dark and taint. And he loved it so much, it felt good to let his very fiber rot in to this twisted being that now stirred inside him.
Kain would walk along the path finding the night held a new edge for him, he loved to be alone before..but now it was as if he had only been dreaming of being free, now he could experience it freely and openly. Turning round a corner he noticed something that took his fancy. There stood a motorbike, and he knew the model. He laughed and hot wired it before taking off with it.
Revving the engine he would dart off at high speeds, no longer caring what happened. Kain rocketed down the streets and turned corners as if he was on rails. Making his way back to the coven, his new home. He would race by at high speeds, maxing out the throttle as high as the bike could manage. He would continue blasting by on the bike till he made his way to the building. Kain parked the motor bike outside and laughed before he walked into the old building like he belonged, like he owned the place, arrogance and hatred burned in his green eyes. His eyes were like razors, cutting into anyone who crossed his path whom he might not like.
Walking into the main halls he glanced around and then noticed the box, A crooked smile crossed his lips as he read the tag.
Opening it and moving the fabric he at first looked surprised, but then almost instantly he knew what it was and what had happened. He could almost picture it, His expression changed quickly to a very pleased expression. He touched the human heart and laughed at the irony, it felt moist and cool. The clotted blood stuck to his finger tips as he examined it. He would then bring the blood stained fingers up to his mouth and slowly lick off some of the blood that clung to his finger tips. "How wonderfully sweet..." He muttered wondering how it would taste to one of her kind, he enjoyed the feel and coppery taste of it.
Yes, the Black dawn was more then pleased at this. This was what he desired, to become like her, or to do her will. And he would. He would not hold her accountable for what she did onto him, he was grateful for what she had done. Unveiling the fictitious world he had lived in and showing him the truth and the light that this sinister world possesed.

[··¤ Zen Kamei ¤··]

Zen stood behind him and leaned down, murmuring into his ear.
"Do you enjoy my gift, Kain..?" She smudged some of the blood from his lip with her thumb. Such a curious action, she truly wondered why he would do such a silly thing. Wasnt that sickening to one of his own kind? what was him that drove him to taste the blood of one he hated so.. She enjoyed the sight. Knowing no one was there, she traced a finger down his cheek, and down his neck, her lips grazing past the skin of his lower jaw. Her lips the reached his neck, and for a moment her cool lips caressed his neck, her lips then pulled back slightly, revealing her fangs. There would be a twinge of pain as she dug her fangs into his neck, welcoming the rush of warm blood into her mouth. For some odd reason she seemed to love the taste of his blood, it was such a mixture, a medley of different flavors like something she had never tasted before, but it ran so smoothly together, that there was no way she could ever resist. The scent, even the sound of his blood seemed to lure her in, like prey to a predator. She was the prey, and he was the predator, for no matter how hard she resisted, she just had to have a taste. After a moment she pulled back and ran her tongue against the wound, licking the small drops from his neck as the wounds, as usual, healed themselves. Her eyes were a bright glowing yellow as she looked down at the human heart within his hands. He was perfect, and in time perhaps he would become something... more to her.
"The black dawn has awoken, and with it shall come destruction upon the world, as the moon lights his path to his desires, they together shall dring darkness..." She whispered softly, her lips curling into a slight smirk. Her voice was melodic, magical and ever so poetic. She seemed to speak beautiful webs or words, her voice like a wind chime, singing in the summer breeze. Yes, her black dawn, had finally come..

[Kain "Akatsuki" Elric]

Kain looked up from the heart and to her eyes. For some reason she could always make him freeze over and be perfectly calm. His breath slow and even as her cool fingers touched his lips, then his cheek and then his neck. He could feel her lips moving along his jaw bone and his neck, he inhaled deeply, almost excitedly. It felt wonderfull, despite the fact she was cold to the touch. Her marble lips held another sensation that he was unable to describe. As of late he had been careless, just for the sheer fact that he didn't care weather he lived of died. But with her around he...felt the urge to maintain his life.
Kain would hardly flinch when she bit into his neck, as if he was waiting for her to bite him. Could this be his true destiny, perhaps rather then being careless he should spend more time with this dark women.
Kain inhaled sharply as his blood rushed out into her mouth and closed his eyes while she fed. It felt like he was giving her a part of him, As if she was absorbing him into her dark soul. But Kain didn't mind, he enjoyed this sensation of belonging and even being wanted here. Kain's hand lightly ran over her soft hair as she fed from him. What could he have that could possibly please a vampire like her, what qualities did he poses?
Before he knew it he could feel her tongue lapping at his neck and healing the bite marks. This Zen, this vampire was more then just a monster who destroyed his family, more then just the one who uncovered the truth to him. She was so much more to him, a part of him that could not be removed. It would take the human a time to figure out what to say. "The Black Dawn is guided by the moon." He would whisper and give a slight smirk at the thought. "But yes, together they shall bring forth destruction to all those whom cross there paths." In a way, Kain knew he could never go against Zen, not because she was vampire and he a human. Not because she had spared him and he was honor bound to her. Not even because of the difference in strength and skill. Rather it was that Kain found a part of him in this vampire and could never have the will or desire to not be loyal to her.

[··¤ Zen Kamei ¤··]

Zen smirked lightly, a drop of blood dripping from her silken lips, running down her chin leaving a crimson stain. Her smirk faded into a light smile as she ran her finger down his cheek lightly, her lips once again against his ear, cold and soft like silk. Her voice was quiet, breath cool and sweet, causing a shiver to run down anyone's spine. Her golden eyes glinted with mischeif, as well as a different emotion, hard to see within those deep eyes."Kain Akatsuki Elric..." When she whispered his name, she paused between each, waiting a moment, as she formulated her web of words. But this was something simple, there was no need at all to be poetic. "You are my black dawn.." She whispered softly before pressing her lips to his cheek, almost like a kiss. And with those final words, Zen pulled away, and sunk into the shadows, diappeaing completely from sight. She was gone, and left him there in silence, to ponder her words.
