Chapter 7:2 Dates Part 2
“Honestly Lyte, I offer to take you anywhere you want to go, and you choose a Mall Pizza place?” asked Darkness as he sat across from his sister, who puffed her cheeks out adorably at him “In case you forgot buster, I practically grew up here! From being a little girl doing all the dances to getting my first job at the nightclub here!” She said defensively as Darkness just chuckled “I’m kidding hun, honestly I am just glad you had something to make you not feel alone while I was overseas, you and Silver were always on my mind you know!” He said as a giant Larry the rat costume shuffled up to their table and started his dance “I’M LARRY THE RAT, I’M WHERE IT’S AT! I’M EVERYBODY’S FAVORITE LITTLE CUDDLY MALL RAT! I DO MY DANCE, FROM HERE TO FRANCE, TIL CHEESE FLOWS FROM MY GULLET TO MY UNDERPANTS! Can I take your order?!” He asked, after a bit of cringing on Darkness’ Part, they both placed their orders as Darkness forced a smile. “Well, that was….. So why did ya want to have this date Sis?” He asked quickly, Lyte sighed and shook her head with a small smile. “I just wanted some time with my big bro! We never really get to see each other much, either I’m working, or you’re….working… I just miss your company!” She said as he shrugged and nodded uncomfortably “Yeah sorry about that, I am planning to take some time off if you want-”
“I REALLY wish you’d just stop altogether…” Said Lyte looking into his eyes, Darkness just groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose. “I Should have known that’s what this was really about…”
“You don’t even like your job! You are way better as a musician, I could have you in the studio first thing in the morning if you ask, why do you keep fighting me on-”
“BECAUSE THIS IS ALL I KNOW ANYMORE!” Shouted Darkness, causing everyone to look up at him. “Look Lyte, I can still play instruments, but the young me you sat around and listened to died some time ago, the notes are at my fingertips, but the things I wanted to write about aren’t… that war… It took from me so many people… I just can’t bring myself to do it… let’s leave it there.” He said sadly, causing Lyte to glare at him with tears in her eyes. “That’s bullshit and you know it! Mom always said the music may change, but it’s always there! I KNOW you can get back on it if you try… But working for Mr. Capryse is just SO much easier, isn’t it?!” She said on the verge of crying, Darkness just shrugged. “Honestly? Yes, yes it is… like it or not, there are a lot of awful people here, and knowing they can’t harm anyone else makes me proud of the work I do… I KNOW that means something to you, I heard about Sophomore year, that man you blinded with your prism aura for getting too handsy?” He asked, making her breathe harder. “Please… D-don’t m-mention that again.” She begged, causing him to realize what he was saying. “Sorry Lyte, but if anything, it proves my point, some people gotta die… But I suppose….For you, I’ll at least consider other fields of work, for now, I just want to spend time with my little sister.” He said, causing her to calm down and try to resume a peaceful meal with him.
A few blocks away, Zach Farley sat in his office with a glass of wine in one hand, and a Cuban cigar in the other. “And I want that purple-haired fucker TOAST by the end of the month, I want things to be CAPICHE WITH CAPRYSE! He said, trying not to chuckle at his own stupid joke. On the other side of the table, a tall medium skinny man just rolled his eyes as he looked at the target and fixed his white suit and red tie. “So it’s Settled, ‘Darkness the void walker’ fights the Blood Angel… on one hand, I am happy to fight such a worthy opponent, on the other hand, I was always a fan of his brutality!” Said Blood Angel, causing Zach to raise a brow. “Ey! I paid damn fine money bringing you here! Don’t get cold feet cuz you wanna kneel down and suck Goth dick you little-” But he was cut off mid-sentence with a knife to his tongue.
I know your type, Mr. Farley, you demand so much death, but you’ve never actually killed anyone yourself, you aren’t HALF the man Darkness, or Mr. Capryse are! Still, I can’t turn down this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!” He said as he pulled his knife back and slid his own arm with it. Blood flowed off his arm and onto his head and back, giving the shaved side of his head Red hair, and his back wings. “So Mr. Sonata! GAME ON!” yelled Blood Angel as he laughed Maniacally through the night.
