Never Forgotten (Sariel x Reader)

It had been a few years after Sariel had been sealed away for 3,000 years, and Y/n was feeling lonelier than ever. Her cheeks were red, and she still cried so much even thinking about memories she had with her beloved Sariel.

Y/n was walking around in a forest, rubbing her eyes before she felt a presence come up behind her. It was pretty dark outside, most likely evening since there was a deep sunset.

"What are you doing here?" A dark voice asked. Y/n turned around. Her eyes were met with a tall man with silver hair and light purple eyes. He was wearing a suit. She noticed a very peculiar tattoo on the side of his neck. Y/n slowly looked him up and down, taking him in.

"Oi, lady, stop being a fucking pervert and answer the question," He said, his voice dull.

An irk mark appeared on her head. "Who are you calling a pervert! You're the dumbass that snuck up on me all of a sudden!"

"Well maybe that's because your ass found its way into my territory, you bitch!"

"Yeah? Well you're a bitch!"

"No you are!"

"No you!"

"How about you shut your mouth and tell me why you're here in the goddamn first place, filthy human."

Y/n huffed in annoyance and rolled her eyes. "I was just wandering around and this place seemed nice and calm."

"Tch."

"But clearly I was mistaken because some asshole of a bitch decided to ruin my peaceful time by being a rude ass."

An irk mark appeared on his forehead and he growled, fangs growing from his mouth. His eyes slowly turned red, and he groaned in pain, covering one of his eyes and attempting to fight back.

"You're a member of the vampire clan?" Y/n asked softly, walking to him.

He growled and punched her away. "Get away from me!"

Y/n sighed and walked away, leaving the vampire boy alone to deal with his own hunger. She shook her head and mumbled to herself on how ignorant he was. The boy didn't even care to introduce himself. Noooo he just decided to pick a fight with her off the bat. That goddamn son of a motherf-

The next day, Y/n woke up from a tree she had spent the night in. The soft sunshine made its way in between the leaves and hit her face, lighting up her features. Y/n stretched and sighed softly... until she found herself falling off said tree. Y/n fully expected a terrible impact, as she was not yet awake fully, but instead, she fell into some rather comfortable arms.

Her e/c orbs slowly opened and looked up to see the same boy from the previous night.

"Oh," she said sarcastically. "It's you." She jumped off his arms and onto the floor.

"Look, I'm sorry. We got off on the wrong foot yesterday," He said, rubbing the tattoo on the side of his neck. "That doesn't excuse your bitch ass for walking into my territory, but-"

Y/n slapped him across the face. "It's not an apology if you say the word 'but.'"

The boy rolled his eyes. "Anyways, let me introduce myself so you know who's territory you're on. The name's Zero."

"Y/n."

From that day forward, the two slowly started becoming friends. Granted, they both cursed each other out often, but if they were both honest with themselves, they wouldn't have had it any other way. It seemed unique to them, and the both of them enjoyed it.

One day, Y/n and Zero were walking around the forest together, conversing about random things that came to mind. Y/n wanted to ask him a question.

"Zero."

"Hm."

"Where did you get that tattoo on your neck?"

Zero sighed softly and looked at her before saying, "Let's sit down for this."

Y/n and Zero found a small stream. They both sat down and watched tiny fish swim around the clear stream.

"I'm half human and half vampire," He started. Y/n stayed silent and nodded along. She felt it was right to listen first before shooting a lot of questions at him at once. "I was turned into a vampire by a strange woman whose name was Shizuka. She took a liking to my twin brother. His name was Ichiru. Anyways, she was the person who turned me into a vampire, but I do still have my humanity intact. This tattoo is a symbol that.. that she controls me." Zero started tearing up in frustration. "This is her fucking mark that she turned me into a beast!"

Y/n hugged him softly. "I don't think you're a monster, Zero." 

Zero hugged her back tightly, craving the warmth she radiated. It was then he knew that he loved her.

Y/n started noticing gradual feeling towards Zero in her own heart. She was still distraught over Sariel very much so, but she felt like being with Zero... she could get over it.

The pair started dating, and each person fell deeper and deeper in love. They shared kisses, cuddles, hugs, sweet thoughts and dreams, and almost united into one. Y/n caught themselves though before anything happened, so she was still a virgin.

After a week passed of them falling completely in love, Y/n blacked out. She didn't know how long it had been. All she knew was Zero had gone out to do some hunting for animals. He was getting hungry, and he needed the food. Y/n had been in their home, basically Zero's previous home in the forest except she moved in. She was sitting around until she blacked out. She heard a voice in her head telling her to kill Zero in the most brutal way possible.

Next thing she knew, she was aware of her surroundings and looked around. She was confused on how she ended up outside. The ground was snowy and the sky dark. Stars sprinkled across the sky and the moon shone brighter than ever. It was a perfect, endless night. Such a breathtaking sight when one looked up at the clearly visible dots of gas in the galaxy.

But that was ruined once she looked down to see a brutally mutilated corpse. The corpse of her beloved vampire, Zero. Her breath quickened, then she looked at her feet, which were stained with his blood. She quickly looked to her hands, her hair, her entire body was drenched in blood. The blood of her lover, the blood of the person she loved, the blood of the boy who helped her seemingly get over Sariel. Up until she realized, she hadn't moved on from that beautiful archangel.

Not only had she not moved on from her dear archangel, but she had pushed down those emotions she once had with him. Now, they've resurfaced. A stinging in her heart was all she could feel, and now there was the weight of her vampire lover, who she had murdered with her own bare hands. The blood on her hands plagued and etched into her memory.

She couldn't believe it... So this was her curse.

It was so fucking brutal...

Woooooo a nice backstory on Zero and Y/n's past so you guys can understand the trial a bit more. To clear things up, in the trial, Y/n experienced exactly what she did to Zero, but in her memory, she never knew what exactly she did, she could only guess.
