Don't you hate stuff like this?
Damn you, Lurker... =)


Silence
A Dark SM fic
****************************************************************
After such an intense orgasm, she should have been panting heavily;
however, she lay unnaturally still, the rise and fall of a chest filling
with air curiously absent.

Her partner lay on top of her, waiting.

Still nothing.

He leant forwards, pressing his cheek hers, trying to feel for a wisp of
breath on his sweat soaked skin.

Nothing.  Not a breath.

He noticed that her warm skin had started to become clammy, losing the
warmth it once held.  He lay on top of her and waited once more.
When it was apparent that she wasn't going to change, he brought
his head slowly down to her chest, pressing his ear against her heart.

Nothing once more.  Not a single beat.

He lifted his head solemnly, gazing into some far off point.

And then, he smiled.

He leant down and kissed her forehead, as one would kiss a child
being put to bed.  Slowly, finger by finger, he pried his fingers from
around the neck of Kino Makoto, slowly chuckling to himself.  By the
time his hands were free from her neck, his maniacal laugher filled the
small and sparse bedroom.  He finally removed himself from her and
picked up a discarded bathrobe from the floor by the bed.

"It seems that you really don't have any luck with boyfriends...," he said
to the quickly cooling body of Kino Makoto.  He reached up and ran his
fingers through her long hair.  "At least you don't have to worry anymore..."

He smiled at her, and his eyes seemed to glitter for a second.

"Kino Makoto.  Sailor Jupiter."  He reached over on to Makoto's body and
removed her hair-tie, replacing it on his wrist.  "A momento."  He patted her
on the cheek and started to rummage around in a nearby closet.

"Tonight was wonderful.  It always amuses me to hunt new game.  The
problem is when you catch it and claim the prize.  That was wonderful, but
after the first time, it wouldn't be worth it anymore.  You would lose your appeal
to me.  Then there would only be pain.  You don't like pain, right?  No one does.
I saved you from it.  You always did complain about your lonely nights.  Now
you can be with your parents.  Much better this way, don't you agree?"  He
looked back over his shoulder at that last question and sighed when it was obvious
that he wasn't getting a response.  "No matter.  The only problem left is your 'friends'."
He turned to face Makoto's body once more, this time wearing a pair of latex gloves.
"I don't know how I'm going to get rid of your body..." he sighed, grabbing hold of the
body's ankles and dragging her off the bed.

<But then, that's part of the fun, now isn't it?>

He grinned at that, as he pulled the body to the floor with a loud thump.
and he continued to drag the body out the door.

"So tell me, Makoto, how are your friends..."

Author's notes: *Shudder*... Ok, I have no idea why I've written that...
It's the first thing that popped into my head after that sentence, and
seeing a lack of darkfics for the challenge, I just had to write it.  Sorry
about this.  I gotta stop watching movies...It's stuff like 30mm that is
making me indifferent to this kinda stuff... The dark evil crazy guy didn't
really fit in anywhere, and I'm sure Makoto can be replaced by any character
(almost) and it'd be fine.  Just picked one off the top of my head, I guess.
Anyways, enough ranting...
