The next morning came far too early…
This was especially true for the tall blonde. He had a hard time sleeping; his mind was flooded with worry for his Sacrifice. He knew Ritsuka was not taking the situation very well but had no idea how to go about soothing his pain.
Soubi finally gathered his strength enough to get out of the bed that he was now occupying all by himself. After getting up he left the bedroom and descended the stairs still wearing nothing but his jeans, still yawning from exhaustion. Soubi then arrived into the kitchen to find Ritsuka sitting at the table with his head buried in one of the books Kouya had given him, avidly studying. Ritsuka had never really taken a deep interest in spell battles before, in fact he avoided them at all costs; but after what happened last night he wanted to know everything: rules and etiquette, advanced spells, training exercises, the whole nine yards. He was determined not to let Ritsu get the best of him ever again and he now in fact had ulterior motives of his own.
"Good morning Ritsuka." Ritsuka replied without ever lifting his head out of the book.
"Good morning."
"What are you reading?" Soubi asked as he made his way to the coffee machine. Ritsuka then finally lifted his head out of the pages to answer.
"Well when I went and saw Kouya and Yamato yesterday, Kouya gave me her old books from being in the academy. She said that they could help me." Soubi had now made his way behind the chair Ritsuka was sitting in and had leaned down to wrap his arms around the small boy, looking over his shoulder as he did. Soubi gazed at the page for a brief moment before becoming disinterested. He never actually received textbooks when he studied at the academy; he was always given private lessons, so he never really cared for textbooks of any kind.
"I see. So, will you be attending school today?" Ritsuka then calmly closed the book and stood from his chair, breaking free of Soubi's grip so that he could turn to face him.
"No. You will be taking me to the academy today." Ritsuka's voice was very stern.
"Oh? Why is that?"
"I want to talk to Ritsu-Sensei, and I want to see Yuiko."
"Well I'm not sure if arriving there in the middle of the day uninvited is a very good idea."
"I don't care." Soubi could tell that Ritsuka was starting to get frustrated so he gave in.
"Ok. Let me go get dressed." Soubi then made his way back upstairs to the bedroom to get dressed. Ritsuka remained in the kitchen and sat back down at the table. He grabbed a book from the pile on the table and began to read while he waited for Soubi. He only made it a few pages into a chapter on advanced defense spells before Soubi came back down the stairs, now fully dressed.
"Are you ready to go Ritsuka?" Soubi asked with a gentle smile and a hand extended out to his lover. Ritsuka broke out of his serious mind set just long enough to return the smile and clasp onto Soubi's strong hand. They then both left the house and made their way to the academy yet again. The car ride remained mostly silent until Ritsuka remembered that he had a question for his Sentouki.
"Hey Soubi…"
"Yes?"
"Last night, when we fighting Yayoi and Yuiko, you used a spell that I have never heard before, that last one. What was it?" Soubi was somewhat pleased with Ritsuka's new found interest in spell battles, so he was happy to answer.
"Well it was a rebound spell. It is a very advanced spell and rarely used. It turns an opponent's attack back on them, but if the user isn't strong enough then the opponent's attack will then land with double damage on the user's sacrifice. I had never actually used it before to be honest." Ritsuka was silent for a moment while he took in the information.
"I see. That seems dangerous if it back fires though." Ritsuka couldn't decide if he was upset or not by the idea of Soubi knowingly putting him in harm's way.
"Yes it is. But I wouldn't have attempted it if I thought for a moment that it would fail. I would never let one of my own spells harm you Ritsuka." This made Ritsuka blush slightly and all thoughts of being upset melted away. The rest of the car ride continued in a peaceful silence.
Upon arriving at the gate, they identified themselves as they had before and made their way to the academy. As soon as they pulled up Ritsuka immediately got out of the car and headed toward the door, he was on a mission. Soubi had to rush to catch up to him. Once inside Ritsuka made a bee line for Ritsu's office and before Soubi could stop him, Ritsuka burst through the door.
"Hello. To whom do I owe this visit?" Ritsu spoke in his usual calm cool voice.
"I want answers Sensei!" Ritsuka's voice was on the verge of yelling.
"Ah, Ritsuka, nice to see you again, well hear you to more accurate." Soubi could only watch on as his angered sacrifice approached the desk, slamming his palms down on it.
"Enough with the pleasantries already! Why did you make us fight our friends? That was completely un called for!" Ritsu then slid himself back from his desk and neatly folded his hands in his lap.
"I must admit, I did have some selfish reasons. I wanted to see you two in action to gauge your strength now that you are a proper pair and I must say I was rather pleased with the result."
"Well I'm glad that we could satisfy your morbid curiosity!" Ritsuka replied in a sarcastic tone.
"Well I will say however that having you fight the undefeated Limitless was also a test of their strength as well. Yayoi was boosting that they could defeat anyone, and I wanted to test that. The fact that they are your friends was merely a coincidence." Ritsuka was not very satisfied by this answer nor did he completely believe him but he decided it was best to leave it alone for now; he wanted to try and stay on Ritsu's good side at least for the time being.
"Thank you for answering my questions Sensei." Ritsuka had now reverted back to being as polite as possible. "I have one last question though."
"And what is that?"
"I would like to see Yuiko and Yayoi."
"I'm afraid I can't allow that. They are in class now, and all students are only allowed visitors on weekends and holidays." Again Ritsuka was none to be pleased at this answer, but tried to remain calm.
"I understand. Well then, seeing as we are already here could Soubi and I at least do some training while we are here?" Ritsu saw no problem with this request.
"That would be fine. There is an empty training room in the west building. First floor, room 6-D. You may use this room until the end of the school day if you wish."
"Thank you very much Sensei." Ritsuka then grabbed Soubi by the arm and dragged him out of the office. He only let go when they began walking down the hall. They walked side by side the rest of the way.
"Ritsuka, are we really going to go train?" Soubi thought this was a little odd and thought that maybe Ritsuka was up to something.
"Yes we are."
"Is there anything in particular you have in mind?"
"Yes actually. I was doing some research on my own this morning and I found some spells that I want to do some practice on. I found one in particular that I want us to learn."
"And what is that?" Ritsuka paused for a moment and looked around to make sure no one was listening in.
"Well it is something that I came across on a few websites, but it something that is believed not to exist. It is actually a type of spell, something called inoffensive spells. They are offensive spells, but they supposedly cause restraints to the opponent without causing pain." Soubi was taken aback a bit by this statement. Could there really be such a thing?
"I don't know how that could be possible Ritsuka."
"Me neither, but it something I want to research further."
"Well I don't think it could hurt to some research into it. But I think it would be better to research it more first before we actually go around trying to use something like that at all. In most cases, a spell that is out of the norm like that can have very bad repercussions if not executed properly." Ritsuka thought on this for a moment.
"Maybe you're right. Then how about we just do some strength training today? And maybe some agility training as well."
"I think that is a wonderful idea." Soubi smiled down at Ritsuka and they made their way to their training room to begin their day of training.
Meanwhile…
The Zero girls sat holding each other snuggly on their large love seat watching TV.
"Kouya, would you like to go out this afternoon?"
"Out to where?" Yamato then gave Kouya that big adorable smile that made her heart melt.
"You'll see." Kouya then just laughed and gave Yamato a small kiss on her forehead.
"OK."
After boarding a bus headed toward downtown, the women arrived at the main bus hub in downtown. Yamato dragged Kouya around to several shops, while keeping a sharp watch on the time. After about an hour of shopping, Yamato finally took Kouya to a small café that sat across from a large college building. They grabbed a seat at a table on the outside patio and both ordered tea. After sitting in silence for a while, Kouya began to notice that Yamato was distracted for some reason and kept glancing over to the college across the street.
"Yamato…would you like to tell me what this is really about." Yamato gave her a smile and took Kouya's hand in her own.
"Just be patient. You'll see. " Kouya then sighed and took another sip of her tea.
After about ten minutes, Yamato noticed a tall green haired man walking down the sidewalk in their direction, about to pass them by.
"Kouya…are you ready to have some fun?" Kouya's expression was completely puzzled as she looked at Yamato who was now watching this man that was now only a few feet from them.
"Excuse me!" Yamato quietly said as she gently tugged on the man's sleeve as he walked in front of their table. "What is your name?" The man then stopped, rather confused, but replied anyway.
"Umm, Kaidou Kio. Do I know you?" Once Kouya heard that she immediately knew what Yamato was up to. Yamato then ignored the man's question and turned to her Sentouki and smiled.
"Kouya…would you kindly invite our new friend to join us on a walk?" Kio still stood there complete confused.
Kouya then gave a devilish smirk as she realized what was being asked of her; they really hadn't had any fun in a while so she gladly obliged. She looked up at the man standing bewildered in front of her, looking directly into his eyes making sure to keep strong eye contact as she spoke.
"Kaidou Kio, I will control this name." This odd statement was finally enough to get a rise out of Kio.
"What did you just say? I'm out of here crazy ladies. Bye bye now." Kio then quickly realized that this was not an option, seeing as he was completely unable to move his body. His eyes grew wide in terror at this realization. "W-what's happening?! Why can't I move?! What did you do?!"
"We will be asking the question from now on." Yamato then stood from their café table taking Kouya by the hand as she did. "So where should we take our new friend Kouya?"
"Hmmm, how about over there?" Kouya raised her petite hand and pointed to the large wooden bridge that held the train tracks that led away from the crowded downtown area.
"Perfect." With that Kouya and Yamato headed toward their destination with Kio close in toe, his legs forcing him to follow much against his will.
"Hey! What the hell is going on?!" Yamato was getting annoyed with his questions.
"Shut up! If you don't just stay quiet, then your inability to control your body will be the very least of your worries." Her voice was very cold and threatening.
Kio thought for a moment and decided that it was best to obey his captures. After having the control of his body taken from him, he had no idea what they might be capable of.
Upon arriving at the bridge, Kouya and Yamato led Kio to the underside of the structure. Once they were sure that they were out of sight and ear shot from the bustling city center, Kouya forced Kio's body to sit down on the ground with his legs crossed and his back against one of the wooden support beams of the bridge. Once Kio was forced to his seat, his sight shot straight to the women standing in front of him.
"Who the hell are you two?!" The duo turned to each other and giggled slightly before Yamato finally answered.
"We are good friends of Ritsuka's. That's all you need to know." Kio's expression then became that of a criminal facing the judge.
"Shit…" This made both women begin to laugh.
"Well it looks like he knows he's in trouble. And I half expected him to deny everything." Kouya just laughed at this.
"So what do you plan to do with your catch Yamato?" Kouya's tone was very coy; she really was beginning to enjoy this.
"Hmmm…let's see…." Yamato then took a few steps to be right in front of Kio, and then bent down to be face to face with him.
"First off…Kio, would you like to apologize for what you did to Ritsuka-kun?"
"Not really." Kio replied with a smug grin that infuriated Yamato. She quickly thought of a fitting reply to the older man's evil attitude.
She raised one of her delicate hands to Kio's left ear, running her fingers over the cool metal of all seven of the rings that pierced the length of Kio's ear.
"These are so adorable." She then gave Kio a big smile before latching tightly onto the ring attached to his earlobe (the lowest of the seven). "Much too adorable for someone like you." Yamato's smile became absolutely devilish as she quickly ripped the ear ring from its place causing it to bleed immediately.
"Ahh. Bitch!" Kio's tone was more annoyed than pained, which upset Yamato even more.
"Tsk tsk, that's no way to speak to a lady." Yamato replied as she moved her hand to the next ring in line, this one firmly anchored into his cartilage. "We will have to teach you some manners." She then violently ripped out the second ring, applying more force than before to ensure it tore through the cartilage.
"AHH!" This time Kio's screams were definitely screams of pain. The sound brought a grin to Kouya's face as she looked on.
"Do you think he has learned his lesson yet Yamato?" Yamato giggled.
"I doubt it."
"Maybe another then." Yamato turned to give Kio a big grin.
"I agree." She then made quick work of the next ring, ripping out a small piece of flesh with the ring this time. Kio clenched his teeth as hard as he could trying to hold back his screams, not wanting to give them the satisfaction, much to Kouya's displeasure.
"Another Yamato, I don't think he felt that last one." Kouya's tone was now a mix of anger and sarcasm. Yamato did as she was told and wretched another ring from his flesh. This time Kio again cried out in pain. "That's better."
Yamato then stood so that she was looking down at the bleeding man before her, enjoying the sight of his pain. But she didn't want to stop at causing him physical pain, he deserved much worse. She then turned to face Kouya.
"You know, I wonder why he felt the need to attack our little Ritsuka. Maybe he just hates people younger than him. Or maybe Ritsuka had done something to him. Or maybe…he is jealous." This got the rise out of Kio that she was looking for.
"Shut up bitch!" This remark earned Kio a swift punch from Kouya that landed across his face.
"Ohh, looks like I hit a nerve huh Kouya?" Kouya smirked at this. "Is that it Kio? Are you jealous that Ritsuka is the one that Soubi chose?" Kio remained silent even though he was now filled with rage, but he would never admit his jealousy out loud. His silence only got him a strong kick in the stomach from Kouya, making Kio began to cough blood onto the dirt.
"You better answer when Yamato asks you a question." Kio then replied between coughs.
"F-fuck you." Yamato was not about to let this go unpunished. She slipped her hand into her pocket and pulled out a small razor blade then kneeled down to Kio's level once more.
"If I remember correctly, Ritsuka had a bandage right about here." She then began tracing the blade ever so gently across Kio's cheek in the same place that he had placed a cut on Ritsuka's face. "I think we will make yours match." Then with a big grin, Yamato pressed the blade into his flesh and very slowly pulled in across his face, making a large gash across his cheek.
"AHH!"
"Oh I'm sorry did that hurt?" Yamato said coyly. She then stood again to look down at him.
"Do you want to know why he chose Ritsuka?" Kio remained silent knowing that he would be given an answer either way. "It is because they share a name. And that is a bond that you could never share with Soubi." Kio still remained silent, so Yamato reached down and tore another ring from Kio's ear causing him to cry out again. "That's what I thought you said."
Kio was now bleeding profusely from his ear and was still coughing up blood and breathing heavily. Yamato then decided to land her final blow on the depths of Kio's heart. She kneeled down again, and brought her face right next to Kio's bleeding ear and whispered to him.
"Do you want to know a secret?" Kio just spat more blood form his mouth and stared at the ground in front of him. "Did you know…the night that you attacked Ritsuka out of selfish jealousy…Soubi took Ritsuka's ears." Those words shot right through Kio's hearts and for the first time during his confinement here, tears began to flow down his cheeks, mixing with the blood running down his face. This is what Yamato was after. She wanted to make sure that he felt just as much pain as he caused Ritsuka, inside and out. Satisfied with the weeping state of her captive, Yamato stood and walked back over to be next to Kouya before speaking to him again.
"I think you've learned your lesson. But before we let you go, I want to make one thing very clear." Kio looked up at her with tears still in his eyes. "If we ever see you anywhere near Ritsuka or Soubi…" She paused for a moment and her voice became cold as ice. "…we will kill you." Kio, now broken body and spirit, simply averted his gaze back to the ground seeing as he couldn't actually move. "I'll take that as an agreement. Now, once we let you go, I suggest you go home and stay there. And I strongly discourage any kind of retaliation. You have got us on a good day; you don't want to meet us on a bad one." After a moment of silence from the man, Yamato was satisfied that he understood and gave the command to Kouya.
"Ok, you can let him go now Kouya." Kouya then nodded, and locked her eyes with Kio's.
"Kaidou Kio, I release this name."
Kio then immediately fell onto his hands and knees in agonizing pain. Kouya and Yamato then casually turned their backs to him and began to walk back up to the street, leaving Kio down in that ditch. They then boarded a bus towards home, satisfied that justice had been done.
Kio was now completely broken. He stayed there in that ditch for hours until night fall. Once he finally gathered enough strength to get up, he walked to his apartment a few blocks away from the college. Once he arrived home, he cleaned his wounds, and then sat down at his computer. He filled out resignation forms for the college and then bought himself a plane ticket to Paris. In the morning he would pack his things and leave this awful place behind forever. He would leave behind all his memories and all the pain that went along with them.
