 [Once Upon a Time, there was a village not far from an enchanted forest.

It was a normal village, filled with normal people living normal lives. Truly, it was a place ripped right out of a storybook that a particular young man enjoyed reading to his sickly little sister.

A sickly little sister that, one day, passed away. 

So the young man lived alone with his father: an explorer who often found himself wandering into uncharted territory and disappearing for weeks at a time. Both were considered 'strange' by the town's standards, often ignored and treated as outsiders by any who knew them. Truly, the man's father was all he had, even if the two had a strained relationship and were hardly what one would consider 'close'. 

The boy's name was Ryou, though some of the men in town jokingly called him 'Beauty' for his feminine looks and gorgeous long hair. He took it in stride, spending every day working odd jobs to keep himself fed while his father went off on his expeditions...

Unbeknownst to him, though...

His father's eyes fell onto the castle in the Enchanted Forest. 

He found a Ring there, and had to leave with it. 

However, a Beast confronted him, and threatened his life. Told him that for trying to steal what was his, he would take his life. 

The man, Mr. Bakura, was desperate to survive; there were things to find, and he wasn't ready to join his daughter and wife in Heaven. He had things to see, things to do, and wanted desperately to leave the town behind that had so many horrible memories...

But. 

Thinking quickly, the man begged and pleaded: 

"Please," he said, "I have a son! He's young and beautiful, and his life is worth far more than mine. If you let me go, I'll bring him to you, and I'll give him to you! No questions asked!" 

He didn't intend to give Ryou away, of course; he just needed to find a way out.

To his surprise, the Beast even acquiesced! Told him to return home to his son to have one last day together before the Beast would take him into his castle to take his life. 

So Mr. Bakura went home, and did not tell Ryou anything of this encounter, not knowing that the Beast was following behind him to take Ryou once he arrived home...]

[He knew the man wouldn't keep his end of the bargain. Why would he? No one ever did. It was a lie to get out of his situation.

Why was it so hard for people to leave him alone? To avoid the forest? Why were they always wanting to seek his treasures?

As he stood in the woods outside of the cottage, the beast wondered to himself why he was even bothering to do this. Loneliness? Anger? Pettiness? He wasn't sure but... if the man wasn't going to keep his word then neither would he. He would take the man's most prize possession to show him how it felt.

At the stroke of midnight, Ryou's bedroom window shattered and there in the moonlight stood a tall, pale, large creature that could be mistaken for a demon. (But strangely fluffy as well...?) Before the boy can react, he's picked up and thrown over the beast's shoulder, and carried off into the woods.]

[There's a low rumble of a growl before he speaks, his voice surprisingly gruff yet velvety for such a terrifying creature.

He continues to dash through the forest like he's running down the street, nothing getting in his way.]


Your father made a bargain with me. I'm simply taking what he offered in exchange for his life.

[... An odd reaction. Does this not come as a surprise to him?

Is his father that terrible of a person?

The beast slows down to a walk.]


No protesting?

[Thankfully, it isn't long once Ryou has awaken that the sound of loud footsteps approach the door, along with a knocking before it opens.

The horned, fluffy beast peers in for a moment and then enters fully, making his way to Ryou's bedside.

Still dressed in regal clothes, still majestic looking despite being more visible thanks to the sunlight peeking through the balcony window. He grunts and looks to the plate of food before his gaze meets his captive.]


Did you sleep well?

Good.

[... He's very beautiful when he's happy. Bakura grunts and looks to the side.]

How is your food?

stealerofsouls: (035)
From: [personal profile] stealerofsouls
Of course.

[Zorc attempts not to stare, instead moving to look out the balcony window.]

... You will not be unhappy here.

[That first day together shook him. Made him feel things he hadn't in what felt like forever.

And it terrified him. Terrified him to open up to someone. That someone could actually... love him as he was. Surely Ryou was just trying to get on his good side so he'd let him leave, right? He couldn't possibly want him...

He spent the next week distant and generally by himself, spending minimum time with his guest. The servants didn't seem all that worried. He got like this from time to time.

But one servant could tell something was a bit different, suggesting to Ryou that perhaps he make something for him. Maybe that would cheer him up!

One particular rainy day, Zorc is sulking about as he has been, and happens to walk past Ryou's room. Against his better judgement, he peers in to see what he's up to.]

[It was hard to tell what he was working on. Was it a sculpture of some sort...? He's certainly engaged in it though...

Zorc finds himself smiling a bit.

Curiosity gets the better of him and he softly knocks on the door so he doesn't startle poor Ryou, then pushes the door open all the way to enter the room.]


... How are you doing?

[His cheeks flush just a little at that sheer joy on Ryou's face.

The beast steps over to the table to look at his work. And his eyes fall on to the figurine.

It's... him? Ryou's making... him?

Any wall he might have had up melts as he kneels down next to the younger man's chair to get a better look at it.]


Is that... me?

[It was unusual for Zorc to be restless. Everything he did was so particular.

But while Ryou was gone from the castle, the beast paced around, pointlessly looking out the windows, checking the time. He knew it was foolish to get his hopes up but after their talk yesterday, how could he not?

He wanted to beloved Ryou. Wanted to let him in to his life and perhaps ease his heart. To have someone see him for who he was instead of what he was.

Zorc wrings his hands anxiously. How long would he be gone? Surely it wouldn't take him more than a day to get back. He hasn't heard anything from the servant that went with him so that's a good thing, hopefully...?]

[As soon as he hears the slam, he rushes to Ryou's room but stops outside of the door when he hears the crying coming from the young man as he draws closer.

At first, he wonders if he's upset that he had to return.

No. It couldn't be that. He returned. He said he wanted to... He's even brought all of his things without prompting. Which means...

Zorc knocks softly before pushing the door open. His voice is soft, velvety when he speaks.]


Ryou...

You returned...

[He leans over slightly to rest a cheek on the top of his head.]

... Who hurt you...?
