Chapter 2: Vincent Nightray and the Lost Nii-sanA Chapter by PokemonFan#1Chapter 2: Vincent Nightray and the Lost Nii-San Sarah
could not believe what was happening. First of all, she was at home having a
normal day like any other till Earl, Tyki and Neah came, almost kidnapping her,
and then this angel man, with strange white hair and wings, came and took her
to this new world. “Come, the king is waiting for you.”
Calcifer said holding his hand out for Sarah to take like before. “No, I just want to go home!” Sarah said
squeezing her eyes shut and holding her hands close to her chest. Calcifer sighed. “Princess, I do not make the rules, my
king does and he wishes for an audience with you.” “What for?” “You can come with me to find out. Don’t
worry darling, I don’t bite.” He said. She looked at his face, then his hand,
then his face again, and then his hand once more before taking it. “Shall we?” “S-sure…then I can go home?” Sarah asked,
but he did not respond and led her out of the room. They walked into a long
hallway with pictures of previous or present royalty hung all over and a few
servants looking at Sarah in complete awe, some looking at her strangely as if
she was an alien. Sarah and Calcifer had finally come to the throne room where
an old King figure sat in a large throne with two servants next to him, fanning
him to keep himself cool from any heat. “My king, I have brought the Princess,”
Calcifer began, going on one knee and bowing, “just as you asked me to do.” “Good job Calcifer, please leave us be.”
The king said shooing the servants and Calcifer away. Once they all had left
the room, Sarah was left all alone with the king. “U-uh…I-I’m sorry, but, I need to go home
right now.” Sarah said after a minute of silence. “I’m sorry but you can’t return to your
world yet.” The king said. “What? Why not?” She asked. “You are being hunted, and if you are to
return home safely, you must stay here till Earl Taxidermy is stopped.” He
said. “No! I wanna go home, now!” Sarah pleaded.
“I feel like I’m being kidnapped and held hostage…Sure, I’ve had the strangest
feeling I’d be kidnapped, but I never ever wanted that to come true!” The king rose
from his throne and walked over to Sarah, ruffling her hair. Sarah flinched,
but let him ruffle her hair, for who knows what this king would do if she were
to do anything to upset him? “My step son would seem to like you a lot.
You should meet him.” The King said and snapped his finger’s. Calcifer and the
two servants came back in. “Calcifer, please take Sarah to Vincent’s special
room. I want her to meet my step son. She may be able to help him with his, problem.” “Yes my king.” Calcifer said, bowing and
taking Sarah’s wrist; he led her down the long halls till they came to a door
with the name “Vincent Nightray” written in gold. “Why do I have to do this? What is the
purpose for me to do this?” Sarah questioned. “I
cannot tell you, you just have to meet with him. That is the kings wish.”
Calcifer said. He opened Vincent’s door, pushing Sarah in and closed the door. The
door then automatically locked its self. “Huh?! Hey! Let me out!” Sarah said
pounding her fist against the door. “Are you another play mate for Vincent?” A
voice asked. Sarah instantly froze; no longer pounding on the door for a
terribly frightening feeling ran through her. “…Are you?” Sarah heard the snipping
of scissors. The person was obviously ignoring her now, or waiting for an
answer. Sarah turned around slowly with her heart beating rapidly to see a man
sitting on a dark blue couch. He reminded her of Jack, but his golden hair was
let down in his face and messy. He looked up for a brief glimpse, returning his
attention back to cutting up the teddy bear. He had the strangest of eyes Sarah
had ever seen; crimson red (right) and golden topaz (left) eyes. He moved a
part of his hair out of his face, tucking it behind his ear. He wore a pair of
ruby earrings. There was a little light leaking through the dark and drafty
black curtains slightly revealing he wore a jet black dress type outfit, black
boots with golden lining, and his skin was very pale. “U-Ummm…N-no, the king forced me in here
to…h-help you…” Sarah stuttered nervously. “That old geezer thinks I need help?” He scoffed.
“U-uhh…w-well-” “I
don’t have a problem! He thinks cutting up stuffed animals is a problem I have! He doesn’t know me!” Vincent
bellowed with an angered, ready to kill, look on his face. He sighed and his
face calmed. “I’m sorry, I just hate him. He keeps me isolated from the world,
thinking I’d be a killer.” “I-I’m
sorry…” Sarah said feeling a bit sorry for him and also scared at the same
time. “What’s
your name?” Vincent asked setting down the scissors. “Huh?
O-oh, uh…S-Sarah Hollenbeck…” Sarah said shyly. “I am
Vincent Nightray. It’s nice to meet you Sarah Hollenbeck.” Vincent said. He
stood up and walked over to Sarah. “By one look at me, what do you first think?” “Hmm?
Uh, you seem to be hiding some secret…?” Sarah guessed.
“Really?” Vincent asked. He lifts up Sarah’s chin. “And what do you
think I’d be hiding?” Sarah froze, not really sure what she should say, it was
only a guess! He seemed so persistent to know why she thought he was hiding
something. He probably was, or wasn’t hiding anything, but he wanted to know
why she thought that of him. “Well?” “Uh,
I-I don’t know, you just seem to be hiding something dark.” Sarah said pushing
him away, but then he resorted by taking her wrist and pulling her close to his
chest, and almost at a kissing distance making Sarah fluster madly with her
face turning a bright tomato red. “W-what are-?!” “Please
stay in here with me tonight. Please sleep in here with me.” Vincent said
giving Sarah a puppy dog face she just couldn’t refuse. “I-I
don’t mind not sleeping in a bed…” She said. “But
then you’d be sleeping on the ground.” Vincent said. “I
don’t mind.” Sarah said. “No, I will not allow you to do that. This
floor is hard and you’ll have a terrible back pain and won’t be able to get
up.” Vincent said. “But-”
A white cloth was placed over Sarah’s mouth, her breathing becoming slow every
time she struggled and her heart racing fast as she began to feel tired and
limp. “You’re
sleeping in a bed my dear.” Vincent said and before she knew it, her world went
black and she fell into a deep slumber. ~***~ When Jack had awoken, he found himself in some
sort of cell; as he got up, he was pulled down from the shackles on his wrist. “What
is this?! Where am I?!” Jack bellowed as he attempted to struggle about. “Silly
Jack,” Road’s voice echoed with giggles, making him flinch, “you’re back on our
side as soon as Daddy gives you a curse!” “I
never said I’d join him!” Jack bellowed. “True,
but we’re evil and can force anyone to be a minion.” Road said. “Let me
out of here! I need to find Sarah and return her home somehow!” Jack said
getting angry. “Oh
Jack, you see, Neah and Tyki are doing just that. But, they of course aren’t
taking her to her original world.” Road said. “They’re bringing her here so you
can perform an important role we are setting up. You’ll play the most important
role, along with that girl.” “Wait,
you mean to tell me she’s-” “Yep~” “NO! I
will not go through with this!” Jack refused, trying even more to get free from
the shackles. “Jack,
you are the most stubborn man I have
ever met.” Road said. “You’ll be forced to do whatever Daddy wishes if you want
to ever see her again.” Jack
gritted his teeth. He was being held hostage and would soon to be used for
Earl’s evil purposes no matter how much he’d refuse. He needs to find a way out
fast before it’s too late. ~***~ Sarah began to wake up, slowly realizing she was
in a soft comfy bed that almost felt like a cloud. As she soon again woke up
completely, she bolted herself out of the bed, falling onto the hard floor.
“Morning~” Vincent greeted. “No!
P-please tell me you-” “I
didn’t. Don’t worry. I slept in the other
bed. (Sarah gives him a surprised look) Let’s play~” Vincent said taking
Sarah by the wrist to help her up and began spinning around in circles till she
felt dizzy.
“Gaaahaaa…s-stop…I-I’m getting dizzy…” Sarah said staggering once he
stopped spinning her around. “But
this is fun~” Vincent said childishly. “Not
for me…” Sarah mumbled. “Aww!
Then let’s think of something else to do then~” He said wrapping his arms
around Sarah’s neck, the two plopping onto the bed and he snuggling up against
her. “Ak!
P-please get off me…” Sarah said gagging a bit.
“...But, you’re the closest thing to Nii-san…” Vincent muttered.
“Nii-san? What’s that mean?” Sarah asked, unfamiliar with the language
Vincent was speaking in. “Older
brother…you’re the closest thing to my Nii-san, Gilbert…” He said sadly. “Wait,
you have a brother?” Sarah asked surprised. “Yes,
but he was sent away by our step father, the king, to some faraway place.” “But
why take it out on me?!”
“Because, I miss him and you have the same aura he has…” Vincent said
snuggling up even more. “Ag!
Th-then why didn’t you go too?” Sarah asked feeling very uncomfortable. “I
don’t know why and I have no clue where he was sent too…” Vincent said. “Why
don’t I ask the king where he sent your brother?” Sarah asked. “YOU MUSN’T!
He’d get mad and he’d most likely lock you away somewhere and I’d never see you
again!” Vincent whined. “Then
let’s sneak out of this place and find him.” “We’d
be caught and sent back here!” “I’ll
go do it alone then. I promise I’ll come back with him; you just have to let me
go and trust me.” Sarah said. Vincent hid his face, hiding the possible tears
that would over power him, giving her one last snuggling hug till he let her
go.
“Please…bring Nii-san back and be careful.” “I will,
Vincent.” Sarah said and walked to the door, telling the guard on the other
side Vincent was fine. The door opened and she took one last look at the
depressed Vincent and then walked out of the room. ~***~ The Noah brothers came to a small village, run by
a rich house and searched the area for any sign of Sarah, but with no luck. “Damn
it! Why is it so hard to find her?!” Neah complained. “Let’s keep on looking, she’s gotta be
here somewhere.” Tyki said. A girl with light baby blue hair put up into a bun with an ocean blue ribbon, pale
skin and dark sapphire eyes walked by. Neah went up to her. She wore a long sleeved white shirt, jet black dress with
a skirt attached and a big bow on the side, jet black tights, and boots. “Hello miss, have you seen a girl who is
about your height and age, white skin, brown hair, blue eyes; someone you’ve
never seen before?” Neah asked. “No, I’m sorry, I haven’t seen any new
faces but you two.” The girl said. “Okay, thank you for your help…what’s your
name by the way?” “Echo.” Said girl Echo replied. “Thank you for letting us know you haven’t
seen who we’re looking for, Echo. If you do happen to meet someone like that,
let me know.” Neah said. He walked back over to Tyki. “She hasn’t seen the
girl.” “I have a feeling she’ll come here. For
now, let’s wait.” Tyki said. Neah nodded and the two walked into a café. ~***~ Sarah was in her room,
figuring out her plan to find Vincent’s brother, Gilbert. She also needed some
type of cloak to hide her face in case the Noah brothers were to find her
during her search. As she paced around the room, she noticed a white cloak with
a hood and quickly grabbed it, throwing it on. “Perfect!” She said. “Princess, how was Vincent?” Calcifer said
walking into the room without any warning. “GA! D-don’t you knock here?!” Sarah asked,
taken by surprise. “I’m sorry; I just thought you weren’t
doing anything.” He apologized. “……Vincent…Vincent is okay. He seems lonely
though, why is that?” Sarah asked. “Lonely? Prince Vincent? Never!” Calcifer
said. “Ummm…just a random thought, did he have
an older brother or something?” Sarah asked, hopping Calcifer would tell her
something about Gilbert. “…He…he has no brother…not anymore that
is.” Calcifer said. “He did? What was his name?” Sarah asked, playing
dumb. “Gilbert Nightray, but the King sent him
away many years ago.” “Where did he send Gilbert?” Sarah asked
acting interested to fool Calcifer. “The only person who knows where he may be
would be Echo.” Calcifer said. “Echo? Who’s that?” “Hold it. You aren’t trying to go find
Gilbert, are you?” Calcifer questioned back. “U-umm…” Sarah stammered. Oh no! He’s onto me! I need to think of
something fast, or…I could tell him the truth? Sarah looked at Calcifer who
looked to be waiting for his answer. He sent off strange vibes and that’s when
she snapped. “Yes, yes! I’m trying to find Gilbert! Vincent was freaking me out
and the only way he would stop is if I go find his brother again!” “There is no way you’ll be leaving here then.
Earl is out looking for you.” Calcifer said. “Don’t you understand?! Vincent is acting
this way cause he need’s his brother! I have
to go find him!” Sarah shot back. It felt weird getting all upset with him “Princess! You cannot leave here! If you
do, you will be captured and die. Earl would win and destroy this world and
yours! Do you want that?!” He shot right back leaving Sarah with a frozen expression
and speechless. Sarah’s eyes began to swell, tears running
down her cheek. “Princess, I-” “I miss my family and Vincent misses his
brother! We both have something in common! We share the same pain! We both long
for something! Vincent wants his brother back and I want to go back home! Let
me do this one thing, and I’ll do whatever you want! Just let me get Gilbert!”
Sarah exclaimed with tears running down her cheeks. This was one of her rare
moments where she would be overcome by a feeling and snap easily. “You leave me with no other choice then.”
Calcifer said. He took a silver key from his pocket, closing the door and
locking it from the other side. “This is for the best, Princess.” “N-no! No! You can’t do this! Y-you can’t
do this to me! Let me out of here! I need…I-I need to…I need to…t-to
find…Gilbert…” Sarah said banging her fist against the door while her tears
overflowed. “Sarah?” A familiar voice said. “Vincent?” Sarah asked, wiping her tears
away and turning to see Vincent crawl through a hidden passage. “H-how’d you
get in here?”
“Through the hidden passage; I came back here just in case you were to
be locked up…I was right.” Vincent said. “I-I’m sorry…He somehow saw through me
when I asked about who Echo was…I’m so sorry! I tried! I really did!” Sarah
apologized, hiding her face in her knees. Vincent walked over to Sarah, pulling
her chin up and began to kiss her cheeks, then her forehead, and then her neck. “W-what are you-” Sarah began trying to
squirm away, her mouth covered by Vincent’s index finger. “Don’t
speak.” He whispered and slowly pressed his lips against hers while pinning
her to the wall. ~***~ A searing pain ran through
Jack’s head, waking him up from probably the best sleep he would have had if it
hadn’t been for his rude awakening. “Ag! W-what is this!? It hurt’s…” He said
clutching his throbbing head. He suddenly saw Sarah and Vincent who were
kissing. “Sarah?!” “What are you jabbering about?” A Shadow
guard asked. “S-Sarah……AG!
Stop! Stop! STOP!” Jack cried out again, the pain even stronger. “Master! I think he’s ready!” The guard
called. “Really? Well then, bring him back here. I
need to set my plan into motion as soon as possible.” Earl said and walked off. “Yes, sir!” The guard saluted and opened
the cell doors, unlocked the shackles binding Jack, and he took him by the
scruff of his shirt and dragged him out of his cell and into a nearby room. “Set him down on the table.” Earl said
while choosing his knife. Jack was set onto a cold steal table, his arms and
legs bound by more shackles. “Y-you’ll never get away…with this…Earl…”
Jack muttered gritting his teeth. “Shut up. Ever since I took you in under
my wing when you were just a boy, you never listened to me.” Earl said walking
over with a knife and cloth in hand. “You aren’t my father!” Jack bellowed. A
strange liquid was shoved into his mouth and instantly, his body and mind went
numb and limp. “W-what was…that…?” He started as he
gagged and choked. “Be
quiet if you want to see her ever again.” Earl warned and began to carve in a
detailed clock design into Jack’s left side of his chest with a small heart in
the middle. Once the operation was over, Earl cleaned up
the blood and had Jack tossed back into his cell, re-chained and left alone to
get his strength back in time for Earl’s plan to take action. ~***~ “Mrph!” Sarah muffled over
the deep kiss from Vincent, hardly able to escape. She would not return the
kiss, so Vincent continued kissing her. “Mmmph! Stop!” She finally was able to
push him away after the long and tiring struggling and she wiped her mouth with
her hand. “I love you.” Vincent said. “What?!” Sarah squeaked. Vincent ran his
hand through Sarah’s long smooth silky hair and lifted her up bridal style.
“Put me down! Put me- No! Not the bed!” Sarah was tossed onto the bed, Vincent
cuddling up next to her. Sarah tried to escape, but Vincent held onto her
tightly. “If I can’t have my Nii-san, and you can’t
return home-” “I said I’ll find him! Let me go and show
me a way out of here!” Sarah exclaimed. “…Fine…”
Vincent mumbled and got off the bed. Sarah did the same with a breath of relief.
He walked over to the hidden passage way door and led her down the labyrinth
till they came to a door that led outside the castle. “Follow this road and you’ll hopefully
find where they took Nii-san.” Vincent said. “How do you know this is the way?” Sarah
asked. “Because this is the road they took him
away on.” He said. “I’ll find him Vincent, I promise.” Sarah
said. “If you don’t mind…could you also bring
this Echo girl back here too?” Vincent asked. © 2013 PokemonFan#1Author's Note
