Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction / Yu-Gi-Oh! Fan Fiction ❯ Angel in the Distance ❯ Angel's HIstory ( Chapter 3 )

"So Karasu is trying to capture Sanguine." Miaka stated, "That crazy crow doesn't know when to quit". Everyone looked up at Anui and her childe with surprise in their eyes. Yusuke looked angry and opened his mouth to let every one in on that fact, "When did that good for nothing, son of a-" "Please excuse Yusuke, he's pretty upset that Karasu has had time to observe Sanguine." Kurama said softly, "What did he want?" He was soon surprised by Sanguine herself sitting up to speak. "He wanted to take me as his mate about three centuries ago." "Three centuries how old are you!" Kuwabara blurted out, "What did you look like?" "The thing about Kyrelles is that while their body matures from a young age, but our minds take longer to do so." Sanguine said, "I am an exception the rule". "So you looked like an average ningen girl all of your life." Hiei said softly, "Now tell us about Egypt".

Sanguine took a deep breath and sat up straight as all of her memories came flooding back to her and started to speak: "I was born under a lucky star. My parents were seers and they were highly respected. My life was normal until I was about fifteen and just starting to use my powers. I had been out riding with the apprentice priest, I had asked to see his powers, and I would show him my natural powers. He was cute and every woman in the pharaoh's court fell in love with him. I of course was no exception and I wanted to show off my powers if that would make him like me more. I concentrated and used a strand of my powers to cause a small cactus flower to burst into bloom. "Amazing!" he exclaimed, "You have more powers than this?" I nodded and his cerulean eyes turned up into a smile. Then before I could move, he kissed me on the lips.

"The sun set soon after and we went to our separate homes. All of my friends wanted to know what Seto and I had done while we were at that very secluded oasis, but I wanted to keep the memories of my first kiss all to my self. "It's a secret", I said mysteriously and made my way home. On the way, there I met up with one of my guy friends, a yami named Bakura. "Hey Angel, would you like to see my treasures today?" he asked. Bakura was one of the Darkness. An order that even our pharaoh, Yugi is a member of and I know that it was quite costly to be a member. Bakura was the best thief in the world and he always knew how to crack me up. He was also the only human to know about my powers and he kept them secret. As usual, he had a special gift for me, a special amethyst necklace to ward off bad luck before I went inside.

"Let me skip ahead, Seto told the king about my powers and ordered that I join the war against a neighboring country. I was tired of the fighting and when I told the king so, he sentenced me to death. I was to be killed by poison and I didn't mind dying if it was for something worthwhile. The morning of my execution, Bakura killed the guards and helped me escape. He helped my parents and me out of the country, but he never made it. He was mummified alive, but at least his soul wasn't destroyed in the process. I heard that he was still alive, but I don't have the courage to go see him." When Sanguine finally looked up, her crimson eyes showed all of the pain that she held in her soul and the tears threatening to over flow. Kurama gently held her in his arms as the tears finally escaped, "Don't cry koi, I'm here for you." He whispered into her hair, as her sobs grew louder and her body shook, "I won't ever leave you."
