Defilement: Atem x Reader

Chapter 22: Let's play a game

There was always those one or two people who like to pick at others who're weaker than them. They feed off the other's misery like a depraved leech. Naturally, three things happen when and if the victim either snaps or had enough; Fight back. Suicide or the worst cases, school shootings. Isn't it strange how the parents act all shocked and or surprised that their child has done something wrong and deny that they did? It boggled and annoyed you personally.

And, always, fate decides to be a bitch to you again. For the fourth time this month.

A new guy, burly in appearance. Likes to target the quiet ones and had already made quite a reputation for himself here in your class room. And of course, he's apart of the student body president club that's held two times every Friday after school. Not only that, this bastard had already began or in a rather poor attempt, to sway your affections due to quote on quote ''Moving and beautiful'' poem you had done in Advanced English during third period. The pestering was bothering you greatly; for you knew that something bad always happened if someone tries to bother you. Courtesy of your boyfriend.

It was around nearing third period and oh, how you hated it. Mainly because of Kaito Rinzuka. That's the urchin's name. The raven haired jerk never lost the chance to bug you, even as you politely told him to leave you alone. He continued this behavior until after school when he decided that enough was enough and had cornered you in the hall way while you were leaving Science finishing up a study group session. No one was around outside the science section of the school so he thought it was the perfect spot.

A mistake he'll pay for dearly.

You were still in your gym clothes from fourth period and had just finished changing and low and behold, he was there at the doors leading outside, leaning casually against the lockers; freaking lame. Seeing as nothing of it, or the impending doom that lurked around the corner, you started to crack the code for your locker. Since school for fall had began, Atem had insisted that your locker was next to his. At first, you were annoyed at his possessive behavior but then you remembered what had happened to him. How he became what he is now. The quiet clicking of the turner was the only noise in the hallway. Almost finished and ready to leave had it not been for the shadow looming over you.

Bastard was quick for someone with a bulky anatomy.

The back of your head cracked against the metal door, wincing at the harsh impact as well as your back. Your arms were pinned to your side by his hands as he leered down at you with a unpleasant look on his face. ''Now I've been trying really hard to be patient. But this little game of yours stops.'' You struggled, trying to break free from his grip. ''I'm already taken! Leave me alone!'' Your face was suddenly whipped to the side as a burning ache consumed your left cheek, registering that this fucker had just hit you. ''Shut up. I'm tired of hearing that come from you. And what? You mean that foreign guy from Egypt? Don't make me laugh.'' his face leaned in close to yours, killing all minimal personal space. ''Are you going to come with me quietly or will we have to do this the hard way?''

''You disgusting piece of trash. Release her!'' Both heads turned toward the voice. Your heart was stuck in your throat before it dropped into your stomach. Oh no. You knew that face. And he is not happy.

You've seen first hand what he's capable of. What normal human being shouldn't be but he's not normal; nor human. Not entirely. ''I won't say it again.'' violet eyes flickered between amethyst and amber gold. ''Let my girlfriend go, and this ordeal can end without anyone getting hurt.'' Kaito glares before laughing. ''Are you serious? This shrimp is your boyfriend?! But then again, I shouldn't be surprised; you're the perfect height for more intimate activities. But we'll discuss that after I beat this brat down.'' The heavy implication shot his eyes red.

''Tell you what, Kaito is it? We'll play a game.'' Blue eyes widen as another laugh erupted from him. ''This is fucking stupid. Go back home kid. This is no place for you-'' ''You will play. Or I can just break the four limbs that help you move.'' His eyes narrowed. ''Fine. Name it.''

''The game?'' The last thing you saw was that glowing eye appearing on his forehead again.

''...Yami no Game.''

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kaito's POV:

Where am I? I can barely see anything here! And where's that brat? Tch, no matter. When I get out of here, he's dead.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Atem's POV: It feels good to be using this part of my powers again. I've forgotten how long it's been since its last usage. A fuzzed nose nudges my hand. ''It's been too long, old friend.'' The death wolf. Heh, fitting name for a creature of the shadows. Kneeling towards its eye level, I ruffle his fur. He was my only companion aside from Vanin in that damnable realm. ''How about we play fetch with our new toy?'' It was amusing to see his eye bleed out from gray to pitch black. Kaito, you will pay dearly for insulting my mate.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Kaito's POV:

I feel as if I've been running around this damn forest forever. Everything was silent and no animals were around at all. Even the nocturnal ones had ran off. Not only that...I think, no. I know that something's following me. Stalking me. That damn howling's back. Damn it, not him again. I already got bitten last time!

''F-Fuck...Rabid bastard and his damn teeth.'' ''Adding more reasons for me to make you suffer I see? I had a feeling you were a glutton for punishment.'' Him. That damn creepy bastard! So this wolf is his then? Doesn't matter, I'll get rid of him and his little pet and find a way out of here.

''Quit with your edgy talk and fight me! Unless you're too much of a coward to do so!''

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The tanned male before him barked out a laugh. Such a foolish request. But very well. If he wants to be humiliated, so be it. ''You don't know what you're asking for, boy. But since you're so insistent, who am I to refuse?'' Getting into a stance, the other mimicking, but his was sloppy. A sure sign that this child was no more than a street rat. ''I guess it was a good thing you taught me hand to hand combat Vanin...'' The boy's moves were birthed from anger and frustration; it was this desperation and fear that Atem adored most from his victims. Of course, those who cross him or those dear to him all suffer in a gruesome fashion. Or end up dead. Or both. It depends on his mood and the game.

Kaito struck first but that was easy to evade. A novice obviously. ''You're slowing down child. A shame. I was hoping we'd continue this little game of yours.'' Blue eyes narrowed darkly at the male. He screamed. His back slamming harshly against the trunk of the tree behind him barely able to dodge the punch that coming at him so sudden. Panting heavily along with sporting a head wound from earlier's little encounter with that damn wolf of his, he was running out of options and fast. He had to find someway to beat this freak and leave this place.

''That girl...You care about her don't you? I can tell. Let's see how good you are at protecting her when I'm the victor!'' His tone slipped into a cocky tone. ''Maybe I'll hang you over the flag pole, making you watch-'' a hand clamped around his throat in a vicious grab. Practically lifting him off the ground. ''Unforgivable.'' That same eye from before glowed upon his forehead. ''You will pay for those words.'' ''L-Let me go you freak!'' No matter how much he struggled, it was futile. He had already made his bed, now he has to lay in it.

''Threatening the one I chosen was a grievous mistake.'' ''W-What the hell are you doing?!'' The wolf beside him had transformed into a giant shadow monster. Gleaming bright rows of teeth and saliva dripping from its gaping maw.

''The doors of darkness has been opened.''

Blood splattered over his school clothes, painted his face red. It was interesting how there was so much blood contained in the mortal body. How life can be so easily taken away just as it is beginning. ''Good boy.''
