On a cold dreary night there layed a boy. A fine king in the making, who went by the name Sterlying Lytton. He has grown to the age of 18, his white silky hair almost touching his shoulders, and his bangs falling with poise onto his porcelain doll-like face. Quite a pretty boy he is. He arose from his cloudy bed and slid the glass door open to his balcony. He stood there in the cold of night, letting the breeze flow through his soft silky pajamas. The wind brushed against his face, and sent shivers through his delicate body. He let out a little smile, as he admired the moon.
Suddenly, he heard faint sounds of somebody walking.
"Who is on castle grounds, let alone at this hour of night." He thought, and began to get worried. As the respectful boy he is; he did not awaken his parents. Instead he chose to investigate himself. He creeped out the backyard gate, peering around the corner to see a tall slim dark figure,holding a glowing blue bell,sitting in the grass.
"Who could this be.?" Sterlying did not know if he should approach the figure, or back away.
"My family might get hurt if I don't confront this- thing." Sterlying walked up to the figure, he then saw it was very human-like. The thing had black skin with crimson red roses peering out of its arms.
"This thing definitely is not human." murmured Sterlying.
Unknowingly that he had talked, the creature quickly turned around. The creature's bright red eyes let off a red hue into Sterlyings crystal blue eyes. The creature's eyes were so captivating, like a deep ocean of red. Sterling admired the creature's beauty for a moment, then blinked and realized the situation.
Sterling flinched back, and looked away from the beast. The beast arose from the ground, and gently put its hand onto Sterlying's head. Sterlying looked up at the creature, and tilted his head as he was confused.
"What are you doing.?" Sterlying asked with a shaky quiet voice. His blue eyes held fear, puzzlement, and curiosity. The beast began to say
"Watashi wa anata no shikichi ni fuhou shinnyuu shi te iya masu ka?"(Am I trespassing on your grounds?) The beast paused.
"Japanese?." Sterlying knew Japanese as he was Japanese himself. Sterlying nodded, "Anata wa, naze anata wa koko ni iru no desu ka.?" (You are, what are you doing here.?) The beast's eyes widened, as the beast got on its knees and looked up at Sterlyings soft blue eyes. "Huh?" Sterlying muttered. The beast smiled an emotionless smile. "So you do speak my language." The beast said with a pleasant calm tone. Its voice ratchet and scratchy, but soothing and calm at the same time. Sterlying looked down at the beast, his expression relaxed slightly more than before.
"Why are you on your knees?" Sterlying asked, trying to cover up his confusion and fear with a toneless voice. The beast chuckled and sweetly said,
"I could sense something- or rather someone of great power. A power so strong it's saint worthy." The beast continued, "That someone is you. You hold great power, so great it can be dangerous if not trained correctly." Sterlying tried to speak, but the utter shock of the words he had just heard, held back his voice. The beast took one of Sterlyings small delicate hands into its, and pleaded with genuine words,
"Let me train you, I'll serve you forever if you let me help you master your power. Or rather your 天使の力." (tenshi no chikara) Sterlyings eyes had a cold blue glisten in them, "
Angelic power.?" he paused and thought for a moment. "I'll let you help me, if you promise me your undying bound loyalty, and service." The beast smiled and nodded,
"Of Course, shujin."
