Prologue : Eyes on Me

"More than your body...what I want is your soul...."

*****

He stood on the stage, microphone in hand, his eyes flashing strangely. All around, voices of the audiences screamed in admiration, their deafening applauds praising him as he sang the last notes of his final song...

He finished his song with his head down, his body unmoving. Beneath the mask he wore, two gentle tears fell against his face. It was a sorrow no one could see...no one could comprehend.

The one standing on the stage...was the famous singer, loved and lusted by all...

But beneath the lustrous pale skin...within the soulful brown eyes...hiding behind the beauty of a frail and sick prince...was the darkened soul, lost and yearning for love.

And finding none.

Very slowly, amidst the silence that suddenly took over the once excited audience, the singer removed his mask. And then the people saw his tear-streaked face. The people saw his grief.

Your knife will always be the thread to weave the tapestry of my body.

He produced the golden dagger, which he brought to his throat to slice his horrible existence...

Against the ground he fell, his head resting on spilt blood. Dirty and filthy....

************

~Hush little baby, don't say a word, poppa's gonna buy you a mocking bird...~

"Why do you love that song so much?"<br>

~If that mocking bird won't sing...poppa's gonna buy you a diamond ring...~

Ryou smiled faintly, as he stared at his pale complexion on the mirror, his hands slowly and skillfully painting make-up on his face. "My mother used to sing it to me all the time."<br>

~If that diamond ring turns brass...poppa's gonna buy you a looking glass...~

"That's stupid.... Come here."

~If that looking glass gets broke...poppa's gonna buy you a billy goat...~

Ryou stood up and walked over to his lover's arms, smiling happily.

"What are you so happy about?" his lover asked, his voice slightly annoyed. "I hate it when you smile."

The sickly pale boy covered his mouth at once. "I'm sorry. I forgot."

"You are an idiot, did you know that?"

Ryou cringed at the harsh words. "I know."

Soft and warm hands began caressing him lovingly, a total contrast to the tone of the voice speaking to him. "Do you hate me?"

"No." the young singer replied without hesitation, as he rested his head against his lover's strong chest. "I'm sorry I can't hate you."

His lover frowned. The gentle caresses stopped suddenly, and the lovely boy was pushed roughly away.

Ryou trembled as he hit the hard floor with such force, but his chocolate orbs remained on the man standing in front of him. The one he loved and feared all at the same time.

"You know I have to kill you someday."

"I know." Ryou replied in a whisper. He closed his eyes and laid back down on the carpeted floor, his spirit gently swaying with the cold wind seeping through the window of the small dressing room. "But until that day comes...can I....ask for your love?"

He could hear his lover's soft footsteps as the murderer neared and knelt before him,taking his left arm. He shivered as he felt the coolness of the dagger slit his wrist...and the warm lips of his beloved sucking on his fresh blood.

"My love is yours forever."

So hush now...don't you cry now...be still in momma's lullaby...

Isis Ishtar stared intently at the television, watching the news flash about some sort of incident that had happened at Blue Eyes prostitute house.

"The 16-year old singer and courtesan famously known as Ryou Bakura commited suicide by slashing his throat with a dagger in front of his fans at the Blue Eyes bar."

Isis dropped the remote control onto the floor, shock spreading across her face. "No..."

"The said star had been linked with numerous lovers, including the feared serial killer known only as "Osiris". Witnessess declare that the serial killer had forced Ryou Bakura into a lover's suicide with him...but "Osiris" never came at the appointed time."

"NO!" Isis screamed, running to the T.V. and gripping it tight, as though she were insane. "He can't be dead! He can't be!!!"

"Before the said death, Ryou Bakura performed one last song, dedicating it to 'his beloved murderer.' Our news center was able to video this last performance. Please watch and let us offer one last silent prayer for his soul... "

"Ryou..."

He stood on the stage, microphone in hand, his eyes flashing strangely. All around, voices of the audiences screamed in admiration, their deafening applauds praising him as he sang the first notes of his final song...

I never sang my song

On the stage on my own

I never said my words

Wishing they would be heard

I saw you smiling at me

Was it real or just my fantasy

You'd always be there in the corner

Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you

Same old songs just once more

My last night here with you

Maybe yes maybe no

I kind of liked it your way

how you shyly placed your eyes on me

And did you ever know

that I had mine on you?

Darling so there you are

with that look on your face

As if you never hurt

As if you never doubt

Shall i be the one for you,

who pinches you softly but sure?

If frown is shown then i would know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you

close as I wanna be

Close enough for me

to feel your heart beating fast

and say there as I whisper

how I love you feast your eyes on me

Did you ever know

that I had mine on you?

Darling so share with me

your love if you have enough

The tears that your e holding back

of pain if that's what it is

How can I let you know

I'm more than a dress and a voice?

Just reach me out and I will know that you are no dreamer

Isis shook, feeling tears fall from her eyes down to her brown skin. "You idiot...even at the end of your life...the one you were thinking of....was him."

**************

"My love is yours forever."

A single lily, a sign of purity, was placed upon his grave.

"I never lied..."

**************

a/n: Confused? Good. Read the next chappies and you'll understand EXACTLY what happened, who "Osiris" is, and why Ryou killed himself. Of course, there's the romance part...and the lots of Ryou pairings. Oh yeah, read the song Eyes On Me(don't skip it!) and you'll get some part of the plot. Now review and guess who "Osiris" is. ^_^

Next chappie will be longer. This had to be short because I can't reveal who "osiris" is yet until somebody's guessed it correctly. After you guess, tell me if you want the prize or not. That way, if ever you win, I can start on the fic I promised you.

REVIEW.
