The Snake and the Dragon || @the-raven-dhampir

The King was dying.

Everyone knew, nobody talked about it. For it was grave news indeed.

Cain was the rightful heir, by birthright. Only son of Vigarys Targaryen, named Aegon Targaryen - but everyone called him Cain as he wished. Nobody dared to go against the will of the dashing prince, who's cruelty outshined his beauty.

The Kingdom knew that dark times were ahead, because Cain did not make it a secret that he wanted to rule way past that any Targaryen ever dared. His methods were creative and dangerous to all involved, even to him. But he cared little about anyone's safety anyway.

He was tall and proud, his eyes shone with hues of purple, his pale hair stood up in spikes almost always from riding his dragon, Aerys. The dragon only responded to him; their bond was tight and unbreakable. Once the King died, he was off land for a week with his dragon. They did not have a good bond due to the fact his mother died giving birth to their second child many years ago, but Cain was still in mourning.

When he came back, he had a council meeting with his demands. First, he got rid of anyone he didn't like; he fed them to Aerys. Second, he collected people who're clever enough and followed his wishes blindly. Even so, during the first meeting with them, it didn't go as he planned.

"I want Dorne."

His words were met with silence and paling faces. Then three of his council started to speak, but he silenced them with a raised hand.

"Send a raven to them that their new King wants to see their Prince. Rumour has it he's... interesting."

Seeing the faces Cain could tell they wanted to object or change his word 'interesting' to something worse, but they did not dare to object. They've had the topic of marriage ob the table for days by now, but for Cain to be curious about a Prince of all, well... nothing went as they wanted, either.

@the-raven-dhampir 🧛🏻‍♂️

The chase had been going on for forty minutes by now.

The android was relentless, he really wanted to accomplish his mission; eager to prove himself to his superiors, he was dead set on his goal.

Neutralize a dhampir.

Although, he was pretty much convinced that the aforementioned dhampir was toying with him. It didn't bother the android, even if he knew time was of the essence. He followed the halfling's trail every time he lost him, and Sixty did not need to sleep, to eat, to stop and rest.

Which probably put a strain on Raven as he needed most of those things.

Stopping in the rain, he sized up the distance between himself and the man on the roof, analyzed it with caution before he slid his handgun out of his pocket.

He aimed and shot.

As an android, he had insane accuracy, and his shots rarely missed. But this one wasn't a human; he knew he'd need to recalibrate if he could collect data from this.

The first thing he could remember, if there was even ever anything else, was the dark. His head shifting lightly as he showed signs of life. Sasha remained mostly inanimate, however. His mind was a fog, his body felt heavy. Like all of this had been new to him. From one perspective his own, it certainly all was. The rest of the world around him soon started to tune in, roughly the sound penetrated his ears as he connected to the outside world with them. Sharply he turned his head to one side, wincing.

The fog in his head cleared for a moment, he could see shapes, for a moment. Then the fog pulled the images back from him again, recessing them back into his mind. Sasha closed his eyes tightly, before soon, slowly, opening them up, just a little bit. The light shining down on him hurting his eyes. Instinctively his suddenly brought his right hand up to his head, trying to cover his eyes and smacking himself in the face in the process, absently groaning with the miscalculation, because of how strange the weight had been.

Magic in the veins || @the-raven-dhampir

Cain was too bored to even fall asleep. The History of Magic class was the worst; he always had to try and find things to keep himself entertained and awake.

He was scribbling something on the parchment in front of him when a crumpled up parchment fell on his desk. He held back a yawn, and set his quill down to open the parchment with a raised brow.

Stop staring at me, it makes me uncomfortable.

Cain blinked at the note, then he glanced at the back of the Ravenclaw boy who dropped the note on his desk. Raven was sitting up front, three rows of students were between them. Staring at him? He wasn't staring at him, they just made eye contact after they sat down. The Slytherin took a piece of parchment and wrote a message back.

...but you're cute. :(

He folded it in half, then got his wand in his hand and used magic to sneakily make it fly on Raven's desk, beside his hand.

"Mmmmm~ yes, follow me, kitten~"

@the-raven-dhampir

Cain was in his lil' bat mood, and he flapped about with his lil' wings in the manor until he found his lover, reading a book as he sat on the couch. The bat landed on top of his head and chirped happily at the fluffy hair he felt against his belly.

[painforcain]

In a brief fifteen minutes, Cain had bled the rest of the journalists dry, and made one of them his thrall to follow him with one of the cameras as he walked down the corridor. Of course, guards, police, commando flooded the facility with the order to shoot him on sight, but they were truly no match for the ancient. Heads rolled while no bullet could hit his body.

As he walked, he got a headset from one of the bodies. He paired it with his phone and called his Inner Circle. Those he'd kept close to his heart. Those who'd follow him to Hell and back and to Hell again. Those he trusted with every bit of information, those who guarded his Institutes across the globe.

"I want all of you to rise when dusk falls", he told them, "the time has come to take power!"

And hundreds of voices responded in his ear:

"Yes, Cain!"

"I want all of you to take power in your countries, I want you to burn down the churches, I want you to bleed priests out and feed on nuns! I want you to gather the humans and strike fear into their hearts, but follow my general rules on killing: no pregnant woman nor children can suffer any harm. We'll need them."

"Yes, Cain!"

"Love", a voice added, and when Cain did not reply, he continued: "I've been waiting for this day for hundreds of years, and I'm so glad it's finally happening!"

"I'm glad too", Cain murmured with a half smile as he slowly started to unbutton his suit, then his shirt. "I should've done this centuries ago, as you've all always told me; but the wait is over, my darlings. Feed!"

"Yes, Cain!"

As hundreds hang up and started to make plans for taking over hundreds of cities, Camille was having a nervous breakdown. James and she went to the nearest Institute as fast as they could and sound the alarms at once. She called Raven - of course, he was useless as always -, and they remained online to see the chaos Cain was causing. At the moment, he was walking out from the news conference room and relieved himself of his suit and shirt, continuing his way half naked, the camera showing his toned, beautiful, pale back.

"We need to follow protocol", Camille murmured and James frowned as he looked at her.

"Protocol?"

"We have a plan in case he goes berserk", she stared at the screens, her eyes determined. "We can't allow him to change the order of the world. That'd be too drastic, we're not ready yet."

"I think you know too little about Cain to determine that", James replied, completely amused.

"I know enough about him!" Camille yelled and half turned to look James in the eyes. "If he loses his mind, it'll be the end of us all!"

"If he loses his mind", James tilted his head, "let him. We'll never see what he really is capable of otherwise, right?"

"Is this why are you here?!" Camille now turned to stare at him in the face, and James was just politely grinning at her. She never looked so angry. "To test him?! To assess his weaknesses?!"

"More or less", James half nodded and half shook his head. "The Lightbringer requires him to rule over the Earth for him. This would've happened sooner or later. Your comfortable way of life was temporary; once Earth falls, Heaven is next."

"He's not your pawn in your game!" Camille screamed and lurched forward to jump at James's neck, but he caught her mid-air with an arm that extended from his back as his eyes turned black and his lips stretched into a menacing smile.

"You're right", he replied in a much deeper voice, "he's not a pawn. He's the King of the Damned."

~*~

"At least make it a challenge for me!"

His yell echoed in the hall where special forces were waiting for him. The soldiers shot at him without wasting another second; hundreds of bullets hitting everything but him as he faced them. Once they ran out of ammo, Cain half smiled.

"My turn."

He stretched his arms out to the soldiers and slowly raised them; and as he was doing that, the men also ascended from the ground. When Cain forcefully shut his hands into fists, each and every skull was crashed. The ancient hummed. He felt that his nose started to bleed. That was when he received the texts. With a gentle smile, he continued walking.

[Text] You're always safe, no matter where you are.

I miss you, he wanted to write. I know you see I'm turning the world inside out for you. Is it good enough for you? Did I manage to escape from myself? Do I still look miserable to you?

Then, he decided to write a message anyway.

[Text] Have fun. This is all for you.

"I know they're about to host a party for my birthday", mumbled Cain as he was beating another stage of the match three game on his phone as he was hanging upside down from the ceiling. "I want you to sabotage it." || @painforcain

"Your... Birthday?" Raven repeated, getting the eyes away from his Alice in Wonderland book.

His eyes darted around the room several times without seeing anything, a very puzzled expression on his face. Nonetheless, every thought disappeared as soon as he laid his eyes on Cain: stupid of him to still wonder about a being who was literally defying the basical rules of gravity right now.

"So, you're an Aquarius, I'm a Libra. There's affinity." he simply commented with a grin, deciding not to ask any further questions, which were more about the date Cain had picked than about the reasons why he wanted Raven to sabotage it.

"Let's see..." he mumbled. "Can you get your hundreds bodyguards out of our ways for a few hours? Just the time we need to board my jet... There are a few islands in the Pacific Oceans with literally one single cabin on them." He got out of Cain's bed to look at him. He tilted his head to reach the cealing: no lies, Raven would have loved to sit like that at least once, no matter how uncomfortable it looked.

"I know, I know... You are probably imagining indoor explosions, fire, chaos, Hell on Earth..." he continued. "But... If it could be something that won't get me another step closer to be mysteriously murdered for natural causes by your Inner Council..."

He took a break, imagining them on a tropical island. Silence, alcohol, weed and some bags of blood. Alone, truly alone for the first time ever.

"I'd love that."

Cain slowly poked his tongue out of his mouth and licked his lips before he clicked with his tongue.

"Yeah?" And he yawned. Absolutely unimpressed. "Tell me something I don't know, sugar."
