Anything For Her

[Namine Joy LeBeau]

The mirror shows my reflection.

I hate it.

I hate what I've become... For her.

Never once before had I not listened to a direct order like that, but...

They sent her in without properly training those with her!

She's not that strong...

One day she'll die by their hands...

And no matter the mercy they show me...

I'll kill them for it...

“Angel?” Words soft and shimmering, the way a true angel would speak. “Thank you... You saved us today.” Small hands grip the side of my shirt when I do not respond. I can see those deep, endless pool beginning to brim over, filled with tears. I can hear the quivering coming off of her body -it sickens me how weak this infection has made her- and a soft cough leaves her lips.

“Don't thank me,” I say roughly as I pick her up and spin us a little, anything to get that rare smile from this child. Anything to see her happy. Anything to be the one that makes her happy. “Just doing my job~.”

She does giggle.

Even if it doesn't reach her eyes.

Doesn't reach her heart...

“Angel...? You're my best friend,” Her arms coming around me- so glad I've already cleaned up, yuck, imagine if I got blood all over her!- and her head rests on my shoulder. Blond, no, solid sunlight strands fall a little off to the side. I can smile.

“Oh yeah?” I chuckle as I rock back and forth, lulling her into a sleep I know she can find with a little help. “You're my Little Miss.” Though I know better than to get attached like this, I can't help it. With her I feel whole once more.

Walking out of my room I carry her down the hall, up three flights of stairs, and down another hall to her chambers. And then I lay her gently down in her plush bed, “Sleep well, my little Namine. Dream sweet dreams and forget the blood I've spilled... Even if it was all for you.”

- - -

Dark, ocean stealing eyes burn with a fiery rage, blond hair thrown back in a braid. Small, but strong arms crossed over a small child's chest and a thin lipped expression to match the glare I'm receiving. Now that... That's Darla, child wonder of the LeBeau family. Born from the first heir, first daughter and no assistance to her mother's crave for power.

They say you get what god gives you.

If that's true then god has a cruel sense of humor.

These poor girls.

“Angel! Focus!!” A shout is heard as a sword comes swiping at me, but their too slow. A simple one-two and now their disarmed. Three! Their ass hits the ground. Four! My blade is at their throat.

“You have two choices... Give in now or beg for mercy later, Otherborn,” That's right, they had me playing the part of the demon today. Not that it bothered me. Actually, I'm getting an almost sick joy from it. “Chose or I chose for you!” My blade raises and the child cower. I can feel my more demonic heritage begging me to continue, its loves blood... Namine does not.

All the kid could do is cower and I sigh. Lifting my blade up as if I were to attack, their was a couple sounds of protest as I bring my blade down. It embeds next to the kids head, “Lesson one... Real demons aren't as forgiving as I... But if you do not leave my site I shall rethink my decision!”

That was the fastest I've ever seen that kid move. Well, maybe I just put the world in focus for him. I look up to the rest of the training party, “You can NOT lose in a real fight! Not only to keep your own skin safe, but other's as well... I would strive to becomes my strongest and then some If I were you!” Silently I add, Thankfully I am not.

Ocean colored orbs meet my happily muddy brown ones. I raise a brow at her glare. She hates me, but that's okay... I hate her too, the brat...

- - -

My eyes open and I can smell... Well things I wish I hadn't done. I can hear Namine sobbing in the next room over... I did that. I caused that. I've hurt her again...

I can't keep living like this.

What changed me?

Was it her?

Was it my... need for her?

Or was it something inhuman?

No.

It was all me.

All my fault.

That I... That I...

“My dear Little Miss... I'm so sorry.”

And I can feel myself crying with her.

“I have to get out so she can be safe... I love her, I do, I love her more than... I need her...”

I know what I have to do...

I have to find Neku.

And make sure he still wants her.

I can't leave her with no one after all.

So...

I need to talk with him then?

“I'm doing this because I love her.”

Alright then... Wow... It was a little too easy to write in Ang's POV... I wonder why.

Angel: *sighs*

Yeah... I'm nothing like that... well... I guess I am... I do run things in circles in my head until I make a decision... Hmm... See! I just did that ^^'

Anywhom...

Nami: Wait... You're gonna go talk with Neku now?

Angel: *looks to her and nods*

Darla: I take it back... All the shit I've ever said before isn't true... He's not crazy! He's insane!

^^' Anyways, hope you enjoyed... *looks to time* Shizzzzzzz bye-bye!

[Riku Nomura]

Riku: You've got that right Darla!

Although, I get where he's coming from. He just wants to make sure Namine is safe but he's starting to take a psychotic approach and I get a bad feeling he and Neku are going to duke it out before this is over. And maybe Riku too if he gets Darla involved.

[Aqua]

Well, first of all Angel and Darla have that whole I hate you, but I have to deal with you grr-grr relationship. So... If anyone would start it, it would have to be Darla and then Namine would quickly end it all.

Second... Yes, its kinda planned that they might... Most likely not due to the fact neither of them want to upset Nami~~~<3

[Shizuo Heiwajima]

I enjoyed reading something from Angel's point of view, he's a very conflicted character and I just want to grab him, huggle him and be like "EVERYTHING SHALL BE FINE" although I like my face mounted on my head, not his wall :3

It's quite sad to see a character who is inwardly quite a nice person go down such a destructive path, I've made characters that have taken this path before and it's just such a complex and difficult thing to do, you as their author and player knowing that they're secretly a top person but having to make them out as the bad guy :')

[Namine Joy LeBeau]

Angel: ... I wouldn't cut off your head...

Nami: Nope, he would *I cover her mouth*

Ssssshhhhhh... No speaking of a man's weakness, just like men do not speak of women's weight!

*coughs*

Yeah... He is really just confused and hurt and honestly in need for someone to just take the time to hold his hand, give him a little guidance.

And... Well... Yeah. Writing him as evil isn't that hard, second nature to me... I've often been forced to play the "Bad Guy(s)" in RL RPs. It really bugs the CRAP outta my bff that I can't make a single "Bad Guy" that's not just strikingly insane... Because... God... Can she ever *shivers*

And yes... It does pain me sometimes to write all the things he does/did... But most of the time you see me writing from the victim's POV not his...

*coughs*

*hugs*

[Lea]

*nod*

Riku Nomura: *cough* I don't know about what Wresie thinks, but someday, Neku intends to take him into a back alley somewhere and beat the crap out of him.

@shizu-chan: She does it quite well, doesn't she? I love Angel to death as a character, while I also hate him to death at the same time. It's amazing. I've never created a villain as amazing as Angel, ever, in my life, especially not the kind that he is. *huggles*

[Namine Joy LeBeau]

About Neku... Well, Angel would be torn between fighting back and respecting Namine's will... In the end... I don't know what he'll do until it happens ^^'

And *blush* Stop it... You're making me feel all fluttery like Aqua is again >////////////////////< But thank you none the less *huggles and cuddles Miri* <3 <3 <3

[Shizuo Heiwajima]

*Nod*

I've just realized that I've never properly played a villain, and if I have the board or character's never taken off well enough for it to take proper shape. Even Jack isn't completely evil.

I suppose the closest I can come is Ave, who, as Miri will tell you, is a complete and utter jackass, but he adds an element of depth and creepy-ness to the original character (Ironically based on Roxas...)

[Namine Joy LeBeau]

Really? I think you're doing a fine job with Jack and his area of people~<3

Hmm... I think Miri told me about him... because I used the same picture as you (I think) for Ang...:



Yuppers, that's my darling Angel~~~<3

[Shizuo Heiwajima]

Yeah, he's not completely evil though, it'll make sense later on :')

And si! That's an image I used at one point! He's easily one of the best characters I've ever made, unfortunately, it's when I was awful at thinking of names so I just came up with Roxa Sairen, and because it's so close I sometimes have to check that I'm actually typing Roxas instead of Roxa :')

[Aqua]

AH-HAH! I knew it! ^^'

Okay, I shall wait~~~<3

*giggles* Oh gosh! Lets see...

Sora's ancestor... Rosa

Rixas (*coughs no COMMENTS on how that's Riku and Roxas' names as one please)

Sorel (*coughs* Same as last)

And.... Raku which their name was based off of HAKU so... >.>... Yeah...

Maybe I should shut up now *shuts up*

[Lea]

XDDDDD

Don't hate yoirself too much, Roxa is a totally awesome character and Ave is an awesome villain, as well.

Heck, you seem to be forgetting that desite his Heel Face Turn and badassery as a hero, Roxa was a VILLAIN to begin with, and a pretty damn good ojne, too.

"Villain" does not necessarily mean Pure Evil; I like villains to have sympathetic traits/interesting motives just as much as I like people like Izaya who are just plain fucked up in the head.

[Shizuo Heiwajima]

I think Roxa was unique in that whilst he was a villain, he wasn't? If that makes sense? But Ave... Man... Ave is just too fun to write as, I actually have a word document that's just full of Ave quotes because I can just go absolutely wild with him :')

But I agree, it's better when you love to hate them!

And I guess apart from Ave, I've never played a 100% Evil bad guy XD
