Darkness Within the Light

Good Afternoon.

I know I had already posted the first chapter, however I felt it was necessary to post two chapters.

Part 2


Kuwabara walked down the crowded streets, his head down and his hands in his pockets. His eyes were looking at the ground, not really caring if he bumped into someone or was knocked him self. He sighs.

‘What’s wrong with me? I just threw the only friends I have out of my life forever. I’m stupid….what was I even thinking….wait I don’t think.’ He sighs again.

‘This sucks big time. I feel so tired all the time and feel so bad. I don’t feel like my self, but….then again, I don’t know who I really am. I’ve been acting for all of my friends for such a long time, I don’t even know who or what I am anymore. I’ve lost my self to playing the fool.’

Kuwabara turns down a dark alley and continues to walk down the abandon street way.

‘When did I start feeling like this anyway?’ Kuwabara thinks about it and tries to remember it, but as he tries, he feels a sharp pain in his head. He grabs his head and falls to his knees, clenching his teeth. He rips at his hair, trying to stop the pain. As suddenly as it started, it stopped.

Kuwabara opens his eyes and slowly let go of his hair. He sighs with relief.

“Damn it. Stupid migraines; been getting worse lately.” He grumbles as he stands up. He looks up and sees he’s at a dead end.

“Great, just like everything else in my life. A dead end...”

He turns and finds a group of thugs. They are swinging around chains and carrying bats. There were seven all together, the leader out in front of the group.

The leader was maybe a few inches taller then himself, which was astounding, especially since Kuwabara was 6’3 now.

He had short blond hair and silver eyes. He had fair skin and was obviously hot with the ladies by the way he looked and presented himself.

“It seems we got a trespasser on to our territory….and to the looks of ‘im, a weaklin’.”

Laughed the leader, chuckles came from his lackeys.

Kuwabara snorted.

“Whatever.”

The leader narrowed his eyes at the boy.

“You’d better pay more respect, baka!” shouts one of the guys.

“Yeah, ya have no clue who yer messin with!” shouts another.

“Same could be say for you baka yaio.” Snorts Kuwabara.

“Oh you’re dead!” shouts another lackey who had his bat ready to clobber the disrespectful idiot who dared to wander in THEIR territory.

The leader puts his hand up, which halts the guy’s attack.

“I like you. You show no fear in your eyes. I can tell you’ve been in more then a few fights in your time.”

The leader walks up to Kuwabara, who only crosses his hands across his chest and stares blankly at the man.

The man leans close to Kuwabara’s stone cold face; dangerously close to Kuwabara’s face.

“Not to mention, you aren’t too bad to look at.”

The leader grins evilly at Kuwabara, causing chills to go up and down his spine. Some of the lackeys smirked at their leader’s comment, while others looked towards Kuwabara with the same lust their leader had.

“Why don’t you join us? You seem like you would easily fit in with us. Besides….” His lips now lightly brushing against Kuwabara’s lips, who stiffened at the close contact.

“…you seem like you need something to hold on to.” A glint appeared in the leader’s eyes, as his silver eyes never looking away from Kuwabara’s brown eyes.

Kuwabara couldn’t help but feel uneasy at the closeness of the man, who wasn’t too bad to look at either; however Kuwabara had decided a long time ago that he would never go down that path again, especially when Yusuke left.

A familiar feeling seemed to consume the teen; a sense of terror yet interest in the one who was close enough to lick Kuwabara’s lips.

Kuwabara composed him self, a smirk crossing his lips.

“Like I would join a bunch of wanna be punks.”

Kuwabara didn’t move, daring to stare the guy straight in his eyes, challenging him to try and defend his pride.

“Why you….” growls one of his men.

“How dare you turn down Denshi’s offer!” shouts another.

“It’s alright boys.” says Denshi never taking his eyes from Kuwabara’s cold glaze.

His gang looks up at their boss, shocked.

“If you change your mind; I’ll find you.” Denshi says, taking a step to the side to let Kuwabara past him.

Kuwabara snorts.

“Whatever dude.” Kuwabara walked past the gang of punks who were giving him a mixture of glares and lustful gazes that made his skin crawl.

Once Kuwabara disappeared into the alley he had used to find him self to the dead end, one of the men from the gang turned to their boss.

“What makes you think he’ll change his mind?”

“Trust me. He will change his mind. We’ll see him sooner then he thinks. Don’t worry about that.” smirked the leader, walking the same way Kuwabara just left, his gang followed close behind him.
