Lucifer's Angel- Riku (For Ellie's contest)

"Behind those eyes lies the truth and grief
Behind those beautiful smiles I've seen tragedy
The flawless skin hides the secrets within
Silent forces that secretly ignite your sins

[Chorus:]
Fly away, fly away
From the torch of blame
They hunt you
The Lucifer's Angels
Never lived, you never died
Your life has been denied
They call you
The Lucifer's Angel

Beyond these clouds you can hide all your tears
Beyond this world you'll be safe from their wicked fears
And in their hearts they fear your demands
You know their minds won't accept you, they'll never understand

[Chorus]

On your own I know you can make it
Truth or bone. I know you can shake it
Survive alone I know you can take it

[Chorus]

Fly away, fly away
Run away, run away
Hide away, hide away
Lucifer's Angel"

Weee! It was this song and the AMV to it that brought this picture into reality, and doesnt the song fit Riku SOO well? (Btw if you wish to see the amv, check out my blog called "Lucifer's angel" for the linky =3)

This ish for Gardian_of_the_shadow_relm's contest, and for eet I of course chose to draw Riku, I had a hard time deciding which version of him to draw, so I decided to draw BOTH his younger bad boy self and his older yet supah sexy self.

I represented 15 yr old Riku as the devil/demon cause well, Riku gave into the darkness at that point in his life, and his older 16 yr old self represents an angel cause Riku is finally coming to terms with his past and becomes good once again. Why are they chained to the cross you ask? Well it is because Riku is a twilight being; as in he has BOTH darkness and light withen him, and the cross means that he is good and is fighting for the right reasons; and it can also mean that he is no longer running from his past and he's bearing his burdons like Christ had to carry his cross etc.

But anywho; I hopes this wins or at least gets 2nd or 3rd place in teh contest, wish meh luck and I hope ya enjoy it Ellie! View, comment, and enjoy mortals mwahaha! x3

UPDATE: Fweeee! I got fourth place! Ah well its better than not getting a place at all rights? =P -happeh panda dance- Go me, go me, I rule -shot!-
