Cold Nightmare Part 1

INFO: So, I was like "MorningStar, that last rpg took fucking forever! Let's just play a real quick one! (possibly dirty, yes?)" "Okay!" "But, that's too easy! Let me throw in challenges as we go!" "Cool!" So, we ended up with this rpg, full of fun, angst and nightmares!

Tsuzuki says: *soundly sleeping on his back, in light blue pjs. Suddenly feels something creeping up through the sheets. He peeps down to see Hisoka having crawled up his torso from under the covers, in his pajamas of a tank top and black shorts. It's really cold...Tsuzuki smiles at the apparently disgruntled boy* Something the matter, Hisoka? I wasn't sure you like to snuggle.

Hisoka says: *Can't control the involuntary shiver that courses through his body. He curls around Tsuzuki's body, allowing the warmth to seep into him. His teeth click together as another tremor hits him while he is trying to talk* I'm just-t cold-d. *As if to prove his point, he nuzzles Tsuzuki's warm neck with his ice cold nose.*

Tsuzuki says: Eek! *sighs* Should have known it was too good to be true. Not only are you cold to me, you literally are too.... *snuggles down, but wraps his arms around Hisoka as he gets ready to sleep for the night*

Tsuzuki says: If you weren't so scrawny, you wouldn't have this problem

Tsuzuki says: you should eat more. *sighs, and snuggles his nose into Hisoka's hair*

Hisoka says: *Sighs contentedly as the warmth seeps back into his body* I eat plenty, I just don't produce enough body heat on my own. I can't help that. And having only a thin sheet on the bed doesn't help anything, either.

Tsuzuki says: *smiles and gets up* Then I'll go get some blankets. You should have something else for pajamas in the winter too, Hisoka. I only wear tshirts and shorts when it's warm enough for it.

Hisoka says: *Whimpers a little at the loss of his heat source, he curls into a ball and wraps the sheet around him* Hurry! It's really cold without you!

Tsuzuki says: *grins at the comment, at the number of things it could mean* Hai, hai. *going back to previous conversation* Well, you could stand to eat some other things...you know maybe even more unhealthy things. You don't even drink regular soda! You drink diet soda!

Tsuzuki says: *spreads the blanket* I'm just saying, it won't hurt to try, if you weren't so picky.

Hisoka says: *Looks up from his semi-fetal position and glares* Diet Soda just tastes better than the regular kind! *Grabs blanket and greedily wraps it around his body.* Besides, I eat enough to get me through the day, I'm fine, I don't need anything more.

Tsuzuki says: You just don't understand the joys of sugar. *fake cries, as he watches Hisoka snuggle in the blankets without him*

Hisoka says: *Another shiver racks his body and he glares up at Tsuzuki. He opens his mouth to say something, but pauses as he notices Tsuzuki's eyes aren't quite right. He pulls on Tsuzuki's arm, yanking him to eye level and just stares into Tsuzuki's eyes curiously.* Tsuzuki, why are your eyes a different color?

Tsuzuki says: *blinks, then grins* Sorry, sorry. Watari was playing around with lenses today. I must have not taken these blue contact lenses out...and I almost went to sleep with them in.

Hisoka says: Not good, you better take them out now, besides I like your normal eye color better anyway.

Tsuzuki says: *taken slightly aback by Hisoka's comment* I didn't know you really like them. I just always thought they were an unnatural burden. *grins as he can see a bit of Hisoka's face peeking out the sheets is beet red*

Hisoka says: *Grumbles, buries himself deeper into the covers, and mumbles* Hurry up and take those things out, I'm still cold, and you're warm enough for the both of us.

Tsuzuki says: *finds the smallest container he can out of the kitchen and puts the contacts into water, closing it* Well, that's the best I can do. *walks back to the bedroom*

Tsuzuki says: *grin and teases* Still cold, 'Soka-chan?

Hisoka says: *Nods his head, body still jerking every now and then from trying to surpress the shivers*

Tsuzuki says: Yesh. *realizes he must be really cold for not yelling at him. Gets under the covers and grins as Hisoka latches on. Yelps at his icy touch* Geez, do you have no fat on your body at all? People think I'm skinny too, but good grief!

Tsuzuki says: *hugs him closer* It makes me worry about you.

Hisoka says: *Once again he sighs as his body absorbs the heat from Tsuzuki. He speaks thorugh his teeth so they won't chatter* I'm fine, really, I just have never been able to produce enough body heat on my own. I don't think eating more will help any. *Presses his cold nose beneath Tsuzuki's neck once more*

Tsuzuki says: *yelps* Well, warm up already. It's really shocking to my system. ^_^ *smirks*

Hisoka says: *Yawns as the warmth surrounds him, causing him to realize how tired he truly is. He quickly falls asleep, enjoying the feel of Tsuzuki's arms wrapped around him. He starts to shift and make small sounds in the back of his thorat as his dreams are disturbed by some unkown force. He unconciously tightens his hold on tsuzuki's body, searching for more than just heat now*

Tsuzuki says: *fast asleep, he doesn't notice Hisoka's state*

Leering Voice: Boy...

Hisoka says: *Looks around, frantic, he can't see anything. Where is he?* Who's there?

Muraki says: Do you really think you can ever escape me...and if you do, what kind a life do you have now? If you can call that a life...you of the undead.

Muraki says: You easily let your emotions take hold of you...such as the time you became mine. Your inability to stand strong on your own, will be your undoing...forever.

Muraki says: You will not be able to keep Tsuzuki-san with you forever...not from me.

Muraki says: How do you think YOU can protect him. It is always the other way around...is it not?

Hisoka says: *Shock scrawls itself across his face before being replaced by anger. His fists clench at his sides and he looks around, trying to find the owner of the voice in the vast emptiness* Stay away from Tsuzuki! Show yourself! I don't need him to protect me, and I won't let anyone hurt him either!

Muraki says: *out of nowhere in the undefined place of darkness, a ghostly hand peers out and gently caresses his face* What is the matter? Is the truth that hard to swallow?

Muraki says: *eyes peer out, the right shining unnaturally*

Muraki says: *a smart grin gleams along with it*

Muraki says: You are tied to me...no matter what. I can find you...track you down...death did not stop me. *Hisoka's curse flares*

Muraki says: *painful red marks of his curse flare*

Hisoka says: *slaps the hand away, and stumbles back from the peering eyes. His mouth has gone dry, he fights off the searing pain that is coursing through his body. He manages to croak out* M-Muraki. *He grits his teeth and tries to protect himself, but his powers seemed to be blocked*

Hisoka says: *The pain is nearly blinding and he falls to his knees, staring up at the evil doctor, his eyes wide with shock and pain at the realization that he can't use his powers*

Muraki says: Hmph! Keep dreaming, my little doll. I may not care for you as a play thing any longer, but your suffering from your short comings at protecting your partner provides a different kind of amusement for me now. Keep holding on to that illusion of becoming stronger to overtake me. But in the end it is useless...futile that dream. Enjoy your nightmares, boy!

Hisoka says: *Hisoka cried out and jerked up in the bed, his limbs flailing so that the blankets wrapped themselves around his body. He cried out again and tried to fend the blankets off, still not completely aware of where he was*

Tsuzuki says: *sits bolt upright, and quickly turns Hisoka to face him, the boy in his lap, grasping his shoulders* H-HISOKA!! What's wrong?! *gasps and starts to cry...sees Hisoka's curse glowing in the aftermath of his nightmare*

Tsuzuki says: A-are you all right? *afraid to hug him, since he doesn't know if it'll irratate Hisoka's curse marks*

Hisoka says: *Blinks and stares at Tsuzuki, confused. He raises his hand an strokes lightly, fearfully, down the other man's face* Tsuzuki?

Tsuzuki says: Y-you were asleep. Didn't you know? We just went to sleep a little over a half hour ago *glances at the clock on the nightstand* You woke up screaming.

Tsuzuki says: *brushes light fingers over Hisoka's cheek, and asks him again* You understand, right? Are you okay?

Hisoka says: *Shakes his head and leans against Tsuzuki's, desperate to hear the beating of his heart.*

Tsuzuki says: *frowns, knowing what Hisoka is thinking* We are no longer living. Our blood is dark with death...but mine is still here for you. Please try to be happy here with me Hisoka. Don't let the darkness get you...him...or anything else.

Hisoka says: *A huge sob finally forces its way through his defenses and wracks his whole body. He wraps his arms around Tsuzuki's body and whispers, both hoping and fearing that Tsuzuki will hear him* I can't protect you. I can't protect myself, I tried, but I couldn't. He was right, I'll never be rid of him.

Tsuzuki says: *refuses to hug him, and makes him look at him* Hisoka, I am here for you! But you can be strong on your own. I believe you can...you can protect me too...it may not be out in the field when we fight...but you protect me all the time...from myself.

Tsuzuki says: And that is as important as anything that could hurt me physically. You are there for me. But giving in now will prove nothing. It makes him win.

Hisoka says: *Eyes widen at the fierce look in Tsuzuki's eyes. He gathers back his own tattered confidence and strength, pulling them together. He looks at Tsuzuki and nods, he dashes away the moisture that had formed in his eyes to be replaced by a determined gleam* You're right. I won't let him win. It was just a dream, that's why I couldn't use my powers. I'm not defenseless, and you'll always be there.

Hisoka says: Just like I will always be there for you.
