Fayted

** 03:Anki, the Hunted and Fayt, the Destroyed**

Disclaimer:
Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue,
This Rho doesn't own Star Ocean,
So you no sue.
But as for the storyline and the characters I create,
touch a single one of them,
and your head this Rho will take.

A/N: Alrighty then! This next chapter is another violent one. I apologize ahead of time for the things that happen to Fayt in this chapter. But, I have decided to incorperate something in this story that I deal with everyday of my life, not only from my own experiance, but also from the things that have happened to those that I know. Yes there is rape in this chapter. I will not make it too graphic because I know how hard it is to stomach something like this. Other then that, this chapter isn't too bad. Mainly alot of random human deaths so there is no big loss ( j/k man I am going to hell for that one). Hmmm, I don't have much planned for this one so forgive me if there is something that I didn't warn you about ^^;;Afterall, I try to be a bit unpredictable in my writing. Makes it more interesting. Now that the scene has basically been established, it's time to break away from the game story line! Yay! ^^ Of course there will be a few things here and there but basically this is an entirely new thing. So, hopefully it won't suck badly >>

Fayt...

Dearest...

I am coming...

Don't Die...

Please...

You Promised.

The night sky had grown dimmer it seemed, the air going still as two figures moved in silence through an open field. Fayt's usually brilliant emerald eyes had taken on a dull shade of an almost gray color and he seemed diminished in stature. His love cast a solumn and pained glance at him as the two neared a line of trees. The blue haired male stopped and turned to face the other, a sorrow unlike anything he had ever felt coursing through him. He felt the warm and strong hands of his love cup his face as the first of his tears fell from his burning eyes.

" Damnit...I don't see why it has to be you..." Came the rough voice of his love. Fayt forced away his tears and smiled up at taller one. With trembling hands he embraced the other, burying his face in the taller man's shoulder. He felt his love release a shakey breath and returned the hug, his strong arms holding the boy to him tightly. Fayt was surprised to find that his love's body was also shaking uncontrolabley.

" It has to be me because of what I am...and because I refuse to let you sacrifice yourself for me." The blue haired male stated. " Heh heh...it's funny...after all this time...We finally quit being dumb asses and admit things to each other...And now...I am going to lose you."

The other remained silent, one hand stroking Fayt's hair gently. It was soothing to the smaller boy and he inhaled his love's scent deeply.

" You will not lose me...We shall be together again, Liengod. Do not forget me and don't give those bastards the satisfaction of your pain..." The man stated finally. Fayt nodded against him, unable to voice anything. He raised his head to place a kiss on the lips of his love and poured all of his anguish and love into the simple act of affection. The other's heart leapt and he returned the kiss tenfold. Finally they parted and Fayt stared up into those eyes that he loved so much.

" I love you, Fayt." The older male stated softly. Fayt felt his face flush pink and a warm smile worked it's way onto his face. His eyes glinted with a joy that pushed away whatever anguish he was feeling.

" I love you too." He replied. " Now go...I don't want you to be taken as well..."

His love stared back at him in defiance, feet rooted to the ground.

" Go. I can't stand the thought of you seeing what they are going to do..." Fayt stated firmly. After a moment longer of hesitation, the other backed away, his eyes never leaving the boy.

Fayt wrenched his gaze from his love and focused on the tree line ahead. He knew all too well what lay on the other side of it. The boy shoved away his fear and sorrow and stepped forward, allowing every ounce of his own defiance and pride to seep into every pore of his being. He would not give them the satisfaction of fear, of pain. The boy's steps were carefully measured and each one seemed to cause the air around him to grow thicker. It had to be the longest walk of his entire life. The trees surrounded him in their stiffling darkness and he continued further. There were no sounds that were made by the animals that would have usually inhabited these trees. Fayt felt a cold chill run down his spine when the trees suddenly gave way to a large clearing. Within this clearing stood nearly fifty cloaked figures, all standing motionless in neat rows, hands crossed in front of them. They looked to be dark spectors from hell sent to steal away the light that their robes seemed to absorb from the many torches that were arranged in two collums between them.

The blue haired boy squared his shoulders confidantly, knowing that the lives, no, the very existance of this world depended souly on him. His emerald eyes had taken on an almost inhuman appearance, glowing intensely as they studied the scene. Fayt stepped forward slowly and the robed figures began to chant in unison. It was a language that Fayt understood perfectly, but at this moment he wished that he did not. The voices gained volume as Fayt began to walk through the path that had been made for him. Old stone beneath his feet let out a soft clink with each step he took and the torches gave his pale skin an eurethral glow. Fayt glanced up ahead at the large platform of stone that stood in the center of the clearing, massive stone pillars rising around it in what appeared to be a circle. The young man let his head fall back as he walked and his eyes focused on the night sky. Every star seemed to be visable this night. They shined down at him in an almost comforting way, as if those burning orbs of fire and gas knew what was going to happen. The moon was not in the sky at all, blackened out completely.

These feelings,
They cry for you.
Desolate soul that hath been chosen,
Shed not a tear,
The end is near...

Fayt felt his heart slow gradually and he looked back ahead of himself. He would not show weakness. He ascended the few steps that led onto the platform and halted at the top. The boy did not look around, nor did he speak. He simply stared into nothingness as four cloaked forms moved to each side of him. The four guided the boy to the center of the stone platform and he complied, not resisting them. Fayt did not even flinch as they sliced his white and blue robes off of his body with silver blades. The other hooded figures surrounded the stone like a sea of black. They leered up at his bare body, eyes lustfully taking in his perfect form. Fayt felt their eyes like groping hands on him, but he did not react. One of the figures lifted his right arm and Fayt allowed him, his eyes sliding shut. A second figure raised it's knife, sinking the blade into the boy's arm and slicing deep lines. Fayt clenched his teeth, but refused to cry out, to flinch. On his left side the other two did the same. They carved intricate symbols into the boy's body, moving over his back and chest before making more in his legs. Fayt did not make a single sound throughout the entire thing.

The figures stepped back after completing their painful work. Fayt allowed his eyes to open after a moment, blood rolling down his pale skin. His eyes focused on a figure in white that made it's way through the sea of black, a chill running through his aching body. This could only be one person. The figure stepped onto the platform gracefully, his face concealed beneath a white hood.

" heh...Well hello there Child of Heaven...I am so glad that you have finally agreed to cooperate..." Came a smooth voice from the man who for the moment still remained hidden. Fayt said nothing in return. The man held out his hand and one of the robes figures handed him a black bladed knife. It was very detailed, symbols similar to the ones that Fayt had on his body engraved in the hilt. The white clad man held the knife to Fayt's cheek, smirking in satisfaction when the blade was drawn across the boy's skin. Blood pooled in it's wake as the man finished the symbol. Fayt glared at the man hatefully as he did this, moving to the other cheek to repeat the symbol. The chanting of the black figures grew louder and Fayt stood stalk still, body numb from the pain. The man's smile grew, slightly fanged teeth glinting from between his lips.

He stepped back and the black figures began to sprinkle brilliant white sand on the stone in intricate patterns around Fayt's motionless body. By now the boys blood had begun to pool on the stone around his feet. When the four hand finished, they each knelt on either side of him, one at each arm and one at each leg. However, they stayed outside of the circle that emcompassed the large symbol.

" Lay down." The white clad man commanded and with a look of defiance and hatered, Fayt obeyed. He laid down stiffly across the sand, eyes focused on the beautiful sky overhead.

" Spread your arms and legs." The white figure demanded next. Fayt heard the rustling of fabric as he obeyed. The black clad forms grasped his arms and legs, holding the boy down. He did not bother struggling. There was no point to. His mind wandered to his love. The young man's eyes, his beautiful face, and his rough voice. The man who had been wearing white robes now loomed over Fayt menacingly. He was bare to the world, but Fayt did not see him. His mind was too far gone. The man knelt between the boy's legs and lowered his body over Fayt.

" Heaven and Hell, take this boy in. Give me his soul with his body." The man stated and the chanting grew. Fayt Felt the pressure of the larger man's length against him and he tensed instantly.

" You belong to me now, Fayt!" The man hissed before thrusting violently into the boy. Fayt's eyes went wide as pain knifed through him. He felt as though he were being split at the seams and he bit down on his lower lip to keep from screaming in agony. Blood had already begun to roll down his legs as the man continued to violate his body. Fayt found himself becoming nauseated, bile rushing up into his throat. He choked it down and forced his eyes open. They seemed to glow with a silver light, causing the man to hesitate in his movement. A single silver tear loosed itself from Fayt's pupiless eyes.

" I will never belong to you!" The boy spat, allowing his rage and pain to swell within his broken body. The young man let out a cry as every ounce of his energy surged outward. The man atop him let out a scream of pain as the violent blue and silver light consumed him as well as every one of the black clad figures nearby. The ground shook under the sheer magnitude of the power. Fayt felt his own body being consumed by the wild energy and he felt a smile curve his lips. He would take every last one of these bastards with him.

" I love you...Albel..." The boy breathed before his body was destroyed completely.

The dream always ended at the same time...

Cliff had just landed near the half destroyed building when Anki transformed, the blonde man's eyes going wide in surprise as he watched the scene play before him. He stared mutely at the fallen boy. Suddenly a nearby explosion snapped him from his stupor and he rushed forward quickly, and knelt at Anki's side. With as much care as he could manage, he lifted the broken boy into one of his powerful arms. Cliff then stood and moved to where Hana had fallen.

" Hey! Girl!" He called roughly. She stirred slightly and let out a groan of pain. Her eyes opened slowly and she looked up fearfully at the large man.

"wha?" She mumbled, her head throbbing.

" Get up! We've gotta get you two outta here!" Cliff demanded. Hana nodded mutely, disoriented beyond comprehension. She stumbled to her feet with some difficulty and instantly felt her knees wobble.

" Shit!" The blonde man cursed, before scooping the girl up and tossing her over his shoulder without a second thought. Hana let out a cry of surprise and pain, but the large man ignored her and begain running. He had to get them out of the area. Buildings crumbled and fell beneath the many explosions that sounded on all sides. DAMN! The man narrowly avoided a falling piece of metal while Hana clung desperately to the Blonde's leather shirt. He suddenly skid to a hault, barely keeping himself from falling off of the edge of the tall building. Cliff looked about frantically, his dark eyes narrowed. A series of explosions sounded behind them and he turned to watch a chain of blasts heading straight for them. Without a second though he leapt from the edge, Hana screaming in terror as they plummetted through the air. The school had been build on one of the many floating structures high about the earth and so there was nothing but emptiness below them. The whine of an engine sounded below them and a small ship caught the three, Cliff smirking lightly.

" Thanks for the lift Mirage!" He beamed as the side hatch to the ship opened and a blonde woman swung out to hang in the air. She held an arm out as Cliff lowered the trembling Hana and carefully pulled the girl inside. A moment later, Cliff swung inside with Fayt nestled gently in his arms. Mirage closed the hatch quickly and from the control pannel where she now sat, shot the ship forward.

" Mirage, the kid don't look so good..." Cliff stated. Mirage manuvered the ship around a falling structure and began to gain altitude.

" You had better get him into one of the medical beds until we can get him back to the Dipplo. The girl needs to rest in one as well." She replied. Cliff nodded sharply and turned toward the back of the ship. Hana followed after him shakily, using the walls as a brace. The next compartment of the ship was small and had two deep metalic pods that seemed to be some sort of medical device. With as much care as he could manage, Cliff laid Anki inside one. The top slid shut a moment later and a strange greenish fluid began to fill it. The blonde then helped Hana into the other pod.

" Don't worry, you're safe now. We'll explain everything later, so for now get some rest." Cliff said. The girl could only nod in exaustion before laying down. The hatch shut and like Anki's, this pod also began to fill with the same liquid. It was a healing solution. It couldn't close wounds or anything, but it acted as a sustainer that would keep the person alive until medical attention could be given. Cliff looked down at the two a moment longer before returning to the bridge. He took his seat next to mirage and strapped the safety harnesses around himself.

" Alright! Get us the hell outta here!" He commanded in his loud voice.

" Roger!" Mirage replied, before punching the thrusters and jettisoning them out of Earth's atmosphere. The blonde man felt the familiar pressure of the ship's speed as it escaped into space. His narrowed eyes looked out of the large window, landing on what looked like a fleet of massive red battleships hovering over earth.

" The Federation in here now, Cliff." Mirage stated. He looked at the monitor before him and sure enough, there were several blue dots on the radar. Good. They would take care of those Vendeeni bastards. Mirage began powering up the conventional space engines for warp.

" Still...we should lure the Vendeeni away from Earth..." Cliff replied softly. He crossed his arms over his chest and let his eyes slide shut. " Then again, they will be following us anyway. Afterall...We have what they want."

Mirage nodded and engaged the warp just as the federation engaged the red ships.

Anki let out a soft moan, his brow furrowing as conciousness came to him unwillingly. He felt horrible. After a moment he allowed his eyes to open. The sight he was greeted with confused him. Anki took in the silver ceiling and slowly forced himself into a sitting position. He was in a room, it's interior comfortable including the white bed he sat upon. His head swam uncontrolabley and his eyes wavered slightly. Where was he? The boy pulled back the covers and placed a trembling hand to his stomach. Not a single mark marred his tanned skin. Anki sighed in relief. Even though he was sore, his body wasn't shattered as it had been. He spotted a set of folded clothing on a nearby chair and hissing in pain, he swung his feet to the floor. The young man examined them curiously and raised an eyebrow at the tight fitting gray shirt that he was expected to wear. He had never really been one for tight fitting things. But, at least it was better then nothing, which was what he was wearing at the moment.

With a sigh, he shrugged on the shirt, zipping up the front. The boy noted with satisfation that it fit quite well and that it was a muscle shirt. He loved those things. There was something familiar about this outfit, but what, he had no clue. Next came on the black boxers and then the thick black pants. Yet again one of his eyebrows quirked at the sight of the armor that obviously went to the pants. With a shrug, he began fastening the metalic blue metal in place. It was smooth to the touch and as he ran his fingers over the cool surface of it, he was struck with something odd. Didn't that Fayt guy wear something like this? He ran a hand through his messy hair, before glancing into a nearby mirror at himself. The boy froze in shock at the image that reflected back at him. His rather long and disheveled hair appeared to be the only differance from the man in his dream. As his thoughts shifted to Fayt he took on a solumn look, pain filling his heart for the poor man. He felt his throat constrict and his eyes begin to burn painfully. How could those monsters do that!? How could they hurt someone in that way!? Fayt... I'm so sorry! His mind screamed and tears streamed freely from his eyes. Why? It must have been the worst thing in the world. To be so violently torn from the person you loved and humiliated by a horrible man until you sacrificed yourself. But why did Fayt do it? Why didn't he fight back? Anki's mind replayed the scene again and again, anger swelling within his very soul. All of those long years he had dreamt of Fayt and he had grown attatched to the blue haired boy.

To see him so violently violated tore at him. Anki wasn't even sure that the dreams were real or not. Was Fayt Leingod a real person? And What was a Child of Heaven? Anki's brain froze in mid thought when another question entered his mind. Fayt's lover...a man named Albel? Anki wiped his tears away with the back of one of his gloved hands. Albel. Where did he know that name? It felt so familiar. The young man picked up a thin leather strip from the nearby table and gathered up his shoulder length hair in a ponytail at the nape of his neck, several uneven strands handing about his face stubbornly. He managed to compose himself somewhat, his narrowed eyes looking about carefully. How had he and Hana gotten out of the game? And what about the monster? Anki opened the door to the room and peered out into the hall of what looked like the interior to a rather large ship. What the hell? He couldn't be on a ship! And where was Hana!? Anki's eyes narrowed dangerously and he moved into the hall. He looked all about him and proceeded to the left, hoping that Hana was somewhere nearby. The sound of voices caught his attention and he quickly ducked into another room. The young man pressed himself against the wall near the door and strained to hear them as his breath came in short gasps. He was still so weak, so tired.

" Yeah, I would think that he'd of woke up already! It's been four days!" Came a rather deep and loud voice. Anki's eyes widened in shock. Four Days?! Had he been asleep for four days!?

" Well, what did you expect Cliff? He just barely survived the inccident, not to mention the fact that he used the Destructive power." Replied a female.

" I'd expect the kid to be tough enough to wake up by now!" The man that Anki assumed was Cliff answered. Anki heard an audiable sigh from the woman as the duo passed by his hiding place and towards the room he had been occupying. The young man slipped out into the hall again as quietly as he could manage and backed down the hall away from the two who had just entered his room. He turned only to slam into something solid with an OOf! Anki looked up in surprise at a VERY intimidating man with hundreds of tattoos all over his bare chest. The man glared down at him and grabbed the startled boy around his waist, lifting him off of his feet effortlessly.

" HAHA! Lookie at what I found!" The beast of a man laughed loudly. The duo that had entered Anki's room came back out into the hall in time to see the now angry Anki knee the large man in the gut hard. The man let out a surprised oof and Anki twisted free of him, landing in a crouch on the metal floor.

" Hey! Kid!" Came the call of a male behind him and Anki glanced back to see another large man, only this one having startling blonde hair and a woman with hair similar to him. The young man did not stop to ponder them any further, for the beast before him had begun to regain his composure. Anki pushed hard off of the floor and leapt toward the tattooed man, his twisting his body in mid air to flip easily behind the man. Anki began running the instant his feet touched the floor. Cliff watched in a stupified awe as the kid had easily evaded the now enraged Adray.

" Damn! After him before he hurts himself!" The blonde commanded. Mirage nodded sharply and the three ran down the hall in pursuit of the fugitive Anki.

Anki panted heavily as he ran, turning corners and entering various doors. The boy had no clue as to where he was going, but hopefully he would find Hana or an escape pod or something. He had been about to rush past a large door when a cold chill rushed down his spine. Anki froze in his tracks and his wide eyes looked at the metal door. Without knowing why exactly, he opened it, the door sliding open with a hiss. The room was dark, only a strange glowing liquid giving off any sort of life. Well if anything he could hide here, the boy thought as the door slid shut behind him. He allowed his eyes to adjust to the darkness and he focused on the glow that came from the back of the room. Curiously, Anki stepped toward it, still panting heavily from his run. He felt so tired, but his adrenaline and curiosity kept him moving. The glow turned out to be a large tube of some sort, possibley a medical unit, a dark figure floating silently within the liquid. Anki's eyes widened slightly and his hand reached out to touch the side of the glass. The moment his skin touched the cold surface a tingling sensation rushed through his arm.

He watched silently as the figure stirred within, a weak arm lifting slowly to place a pale hand on the other side of the glass where Anki's was. It felt like electricity had surged through his body with that hand's placement facing his. The young man felt his breath catch in his throat and though it hurt to touch, he could not remove his hand. A gasp escaped him and he felt his eyes watering slightly. Stop struggling Maggot. I am not going to hurt you... Came a voice within his mind and his eyes widened dramatically.

" W-what?" He yelped softly in surprise. The figure veiled in all black placed another hand on the glass and Anki hesitantly mirrored the action. He felt his body arch back uncontrollabley as the sensation doubled itself. Anki felt his eyes roll back into his head and he dropped to the floor unconcious. The figure's arms fell back to it's sides and went limp.

Anki let out a groan and his eyes fluttered open slowly, the boy pushing himself up into a sitting position. Instantly he notice that he was no longer in that dark room, but instead in a VERY familiar clearing. It was dark, like it always was when he saw this place. Only it occured to him this time that Fayt was nowhere in it. He felt cool air across his skin and he looked down to find himself as bare as the day he was born, a fact that he did NOT find amusing. Anki also noted that his skin was much paler then usual, the young man slowly rising to his feet. What the hell was going on?

" Hello, Fayt..." Came a deep and rough voice from behind him. Anki whirled around in surprise, his eyes landing on what had to be the most beautiful creature he had ever laid eyes on. Slim, muscular frame that stood a bit taller then him, skin a milky white that seemed to hold it's own light, and eyes like the devil himself. They were red. Slitted slightly, and as familiar to him as the back of his hand. This person was also without a shred of clothing, Anki noticed with a dark blush. A male. Long Black hair hung loosely about the man's shoulders and tappered off near his waist while the top was a startling golden blonde, cut unevenly and spiking out here and there. Anki swallowed hard and was startled to find that his blood had begun to heat at the sight of the man.

" A-Albel?" Anki asked almost timidly, earning a broad smirk from the taller man. He nodded slightly in acknowlagement before striding toward Anki. The boy watched him with wide emerald eyes as the man closed the distance between them and wrapping his arms about Anki.

" You kept your promise..." Albel stated in a low voice, lifting Anki's chin with one hand and pressing his lips to the other's. The boy felt his face turn brilliant red at the feel of Albel's lips against his own. Even though he knew that he should put a stop to this and tell Albel who he really was, he found that he could not. Instead, his arms went around the man's neck and he returned the kiss...
