Devil's Trill

Chapter 1: Theives of all Kinds

Year 8263

"Stop him! Hs got the disk!"

"Hahaha!!! How can you be a part of the mafia if you can't even capture one person," a young man by the age 22 taunted. He was running for his life, well, not exactly. He was just toying with them. He was wearing a red cap and blue jacket, hiding his appearance. The cap covered his crimson hair and violet eyes. What he took was the Fantasma Di Sette's data of weapons smuggling and drug enhancements. Sadly, this Italian mafia is supposed to be highly guarded but proved wrong by one kid.

The guy was snapped out of his thoughts by one of their tall buff guards bear hugging him. "Got you now you shitty brat!" he said in a dumb sounding voice. The kid smirked. "I wouldn't think so," he said leaving the dumb guard confused.

"Wha- AAARGH!!!" The sounds if bones cracking and chomping was heard, but what made the kid excited was the sight if his blood splattered on the floor like a red river or red snow.
"Such a pretty color, but it's a shame it doesn't suit you," he said crouching down to the dead figure.

"Rin, we have to go now," a voice advised.

Rin look way the dog that was about the size of a horse with fluffy fur and dark as the night itself. His eyes were as blue as the river on a full moon. So pure and untainted, yet calm and ever so dangerous.

"I know Sosuke. Just wanted to have a little fun," he shrugged climbing on the dog's back. Sosuke ran to the 80 ft. fence and jumped over it with ease, leading their escape.

As soon as they were sure of their escape, Rin jumped off, took off his cap, revealing his short crimson hair with shoulder length bangs and black beads with a cross on each end. He slid his hands over his jacket, changing it to a thin white sweater with tight blue jeans to have the appearance of a model.

"Rin, can you stop with your weapon obsessions?" Sosuke urged walking smoothly with him.

"I can't help it. This mafia group have weapons for all kinds of stuff. RA-9s, CP13s, rock grenades, you name it," he smiled.

"Do you even know what they are?"
"Sure I do. RA-9s are a futuristic term for laser gun but can vary in killing distance and can also see closer than any weapon ever made. They can also set coordinated attacks either stunning the douches it downright frying them to death. CP13s are small blue and black pills that enhances your ability and that of your familiar's 10 fold but the effects are a bitch. Withdrawal symptoms are in effect after an hour's use of the drug. Plus, if you're addicted to power, you'll surely be addicted to that. And rock grenades, well, exactly how it sounds, except they are a pain in the ass. You can set them up as time bombs, hand grenades, smoke signals, or even land mines, but it all don't mean shit if you can't tell the difference between a rock grenade or a regular rock. Once I get my hands on those babies, I'll modify them to my liking so there won't be major effects," he explained.

Sosuke rolled his eyes. "If I wasn't linked to you as your familiar, I swear I would've knocked you out for being a weapons freak."

"But you can't since you'll also be knocked out. Besides, I like to think of it as the term 'mechanical prodigy'," he smiled.

"Whatever sho- Rin, what's wrong?" Sosuke asked.

Rin's complexion paled and eyes grew darker in fury. Sosuke glanced in the direction he was looking at and narrowed his eyes. There some guys following a kid down a dark alley, clearly picking a fight.

"Rin, you know what will happen if you do it, right?"

'Yes' he thought.

"Then don't. Your hopes will be shattered like 12 years ago," he warned earning a blank stare from Rin.

"All my hope for humans was shattered the day I was betrayed an violated."
But still, he ran towards their direction.
The kid went inside alleyway but he was trapped. Three taller guys were right there behind him and he had nowhere else to run.

"Now give us your money and maybe we'll let you go!" one of them said. (A/N: cliché I know couldn't think of anything else)

"But I told you, I don't have any!" the kid said holding his chipmunk familiar.

"Don't lie to us, kid. We know you have it," the one at the end proclaimed.
"Why don't you just shut up and leave him alone?" a sly voice called out.

They all turned to face the voice in shock to see a pretty boy with crimson red hair and violet eyes sitting playfully on the trash dumpster, legs crossed. Is he calmly climbed down, the three men slowly retreated.

"You know guys, you should know how to pick your fights- Oh, what's this?" he mused as if looking for something.

"I don't see your familiars." The three men flinched as Rin smirked.

"You sacri(1) should know your place. It's dumb shit like this that caused you to lose your familiars in the first place," he darkened.

"Go, before you piss me off." And with that, shadows became larger, going toward the guys as if ready to eat them(2). Without further notice, they ran for their lives.

Rin sighed and turned to the shaking boy. "Are you alright?" he asked crouching down to his level.

The boy was shaking so hard, the ground itself started to shake. Rin sighed again. Here we go again. This always happen.

"M-m-m-monster!!!" he screamed as he ran away.

Rin just stared blankly at the disappearing figure. "See? I knew saving humans would be too much trouble."

"Yet, you saved him," Sosuke said appearing out of nowhere.

"Couldn't be helped. I only delayed their deaths for a short time. Soon enough,they won't be living for longer than 10 more years, 5 if I had my way," he said walking out of the alley and into the sidewalk.

Rin and Sosuke were walking in calm silence, when all of a sudden, he bumped into someone.

"Ah, sor-" Huh? That smell. He knows that smell anywhere. Blood. It was so alluring, that he glanced up and caught the eye of the stranger. Strangely beautiful eyes. His eyes were light green with a flash of gold. His hair was dark with a short straight ponytail just around his right shoulder. Looking down at his suit, it looks like he's dressed for business and have such an overpowering aura about him that would make a normal man cry and the ladies come rushing after him. But Rin isn't a normal guy nor is he a woman, but he wish he was right about now. The guy's hot!!

What took minutes, felt like years as they stared deeply into each other's eyes as if they'd known each other for the longest of time.

A few more moments later, the stranger reluctantly broke it off, shaking his head lightly. "Sorry about that. I wasn't watching where I was going," he said in a voice that would lure a person in, then left.

"Ah, yeah," Rin mumbled still in a daze.

"That guy seems strange," Sosuke said with an appearance of a puppy.

"Strange indeed," he replied taking out a wallet with ID that read:

Name: Takahashi Akira
DOB: xx-xx-82xx
Age: 29
Occ: CEO of Takahashi Corp.

"I might have to look into this," he thought slightly amused.

Little did he know the stranger, Takahashi Akira, did the same thing with the same smirk.

Ok guy, I know you're a little confused with certain words I used so here's the vocab and explanations.
(1). Sacri pronounced (Zha shree). It's a made up word in the story and as you read it means people without familiars. They are no longer espers due to their criminal actions and thus stripped of their familiars and powers, which brings me to (2).
(2) is the fact that in this story, every esper has one power and as you can tell, Rin's power is shadows. If you lose you familiar you lose you power and part of yourself.
If you're still confused, ask me anything as long as it doesn't give the story away.

Ciao~
