He's from my world.

A million thoughts flowed through my brain, so many questions. I was too shocked to form a proper sentence.

"Ehh!?! But I-I mean, where- are you really -" I heard a small chuckle, and Itsuki took off his mask to smile. "Looks like even you can stutter once in a while huh, Ms.Sarcasm?"

I gaped at him, speechless. He- he was beautiful. His hair was white-blond and his face was stunning. With his black clothes, his pale color only stood out more.

 An angel. He looked like an angel in disguise.

He looked at me, confused as to why I was staring at him, and I opened my mouth to say something to break this awkward situation. I mean, come on! He looks too good, it would be weird if I didn't check him out.

"Don't laugh! But seriously though how did you-"

"Well well, isn't this a rare sight", A voice sounded from the shadows. We froze.

An idiot. I'm an idiot. I was too worked up about what Itsuki said, let my guard down, and couldn't sense the guy's chakra approaching. But once I did sense it, I could feel my blood turn cold. I try to breathe- but I can't. 

What is this... what's with this chakra? This guy, he's dangerous... actually dangerous feels like an understatement. 

I look at Itsuki and my heart stops. That face, that beautiful face which was glowing a moment ago, withered with plain fear and terror. My fear multiplied seeing Itsuki shaking. This hate, this vengeance. My body is screaming for me to run.

Itsuki looked at me with so much pain, as if someone just ripped his heart out and sewed it back in, only to rip it again. Why? Why are you looking at me like I'm gonna-

A shadow emerged from the dark, and I sucked in a breath. The man looked about 40, but his movement had a sort of grace to them. When I saw his face, I knew then that I was going to face something worse than death. His smile. It was like a predator sizing up its prey. His eyes look too psychotic to be called human.

Itsuki snapped out of the trance first, but his voice shook as he said, "Rinnes-sama, w-what are you- I mean, I didn't expect your arrival till tomorrow, is something wrong?"

Rinnes sama? Damn, is this some Yandere character I don't know about? shit, why did I have to run into someone like him... just my luck.

His eyes didn't leave my face, but he addressed Itsuki casually.

"My knights told me they captured an Akatsuki just for me, now even I can't ignore a delicious gift like that now, can I?" he said, licking his lips.

Delicious. Did he just call me del- who the hell is this guy!!!

His laugh was so creepy I had to look away. My stomach churned just looking at him.

"Now then," he said, "open the cell, Itsuki"

I felt my heart stop beating. He smiled, that gruesome smile again.

"I have to go meet my gift personally, don't you think?" he said, and for the first time in my entire life, I wished I was dead.
