About an hour had passed before Ritsuka finally began to slowly open his eyes. He was still very groggy and disoriented, so it took a few minutes before he completely came to. As soon as he came around everything flooded back to his memory and the last thing he could remember was a cloth being pressed against his face. He was starting to panic again as he picked up his head and looked around to see that he was in a dark classroom. He then quickly realized that he was sitting in a chair with his hands tied behind the back of it. At this point the only thing running through his mind was the sight of the burnt body he had found years ago in his seat at his old school and he was preparing to meet the same fate. His racing thoughts were then cut short by the sound of a small voice giggling form across the room. The laugh sounded so familiar but he couldn't put his finger on it. Then out of the darkness, a small lamp on a desk was flicked on and his capture stepped into the light. Ritsuka was then immediately filled with rage; He should have known.
"Nagisa! Why am I here?! What do you want with me!?" Ritsuka was now screaming in hopes that someone would hear. Nagisa continued to laugh.
"Screaming won't do you any good you little brat. We are in the basement, no one can hear you." Ritsuka let out a small growl in frustration.
"What do you want with me?" Nagisa then took a few steps to be standing in front of the constrained boy.
"I don't want anything to do with you actually. I hate all sacrifices, but I hate you the most."
"Then why am I here? And why am I tied up?
"Well you see, Soubi is the strongest Sentouki this school has ever seen…" Her words were cut off by the angry boy.
"Yeah so what?"
"So… the fact that he was a blank was a god send for me and I have been preparing a proper sacrifice for him ever since Seimei died. And you are messing all of that up for me."
"Yeah but he isn't a blank! He is my Sentouki! So you are just wasting your time." Nagisa's expression turned slightly angry at this.
"No I'm not! Do you not remember your encounter with Bloodless? When Hideo's Sacrifice mysteriously vanished, I replaced her with a much better one." Ritsuka did in fact remember that encounter and that's when it finally clicked.
"Mysteriously disappeared? I didn't believe that to begin with….but I knew that you had something to do with that." Nagisa let out a laugh.
"Maybe I did."
"You're sick! How could you separate a pair just because you don't like the Sacrifice?! Now I see why Kouya and Yamato would have rather died than to continue to work for you!"
"I just prefer to see a good Sentouki with someone that won't hold them back. Which brings me back to why you are here; as I was saying, I have been preparing a proper partner for Soubi and the only thing in my way is you."
"What makes you think that Soubi would ever abandon his true partner for someone you picked out for him?" Ritsuka's voice was a little more confident now.
"Well after he learns of your unfortunate accident, I'm sure he will accept a new sacrifice no problem." Now Ritsuka's mind was filled with worry again.
'Accident? This doesn't sound good.'
"He would never accept another Sacrifice!"
"Oh no? He was so devoted to Seimei, but when he died he gladly accepted you didn't he?" A smug smile crossed her face as she saw the look of fear in Ritsuka's eyes.
"I-it's different this time! He loves me!"
"You are so naïve, I almost feel sorry for you. Oh wait, no I don't." She then began to laugh wildly. "So I'm afraid this is the end of the line for you brat." Ritsuka's eyes grew wide as he saw the women pull out a small container of gasoline, he couldn't believe that she would stoop this low and he was really beginning to panic now. Ritsuka then closed his eyes and did the only thing he could think of, he called to his Sentouki with all his heart.
'Soubi! Please help!'
Ritsuka's eyes then shot open as he heard the sound of her footsteps growing closer and closer to where he was sitting. His heart was racing at a thousand miles an hour as he saw the women that was now standing right in front of him, screw off the cap of the gas can.
"Nagisa! Please don't! This isn't fair!" Tears were now streaming down his face.
"Life isn't fair, get used to it." Ritsuka was running out of ideas and desperately tried to scream for help.
"Somebody! Hel-" But his words were cut off by a deep unfamiliar voice.
"Nagisa! Put it down. Let the boy go." Ritsuka looked toward where the voice was coming from and there in the doorway of the classroom he saw a very tall figure. He was almost as tall as Soubi with jet black hair covering his earless head, which hung down in front of his face, almost covering deep amber eyes. His voice was very calm but stern and almost scary. The man then poked his head back out of the door to call down the hallway.
"Reiki! Over here." Almost immediately after he called, a smaller boy appeared in the door frame. He was smaller than the other man but still much taller than Ritsuka. This other boy had shorter red hair that was styled up into a fohawk keeping it well out of the way of his bright blue eyes that hid behind a pair of black thick rimmed glasses. This boy was also missing his ears. As the boy arrived into the classroom he was very out of breathe as if he had been running. Ritsuka had never seen these people before, but much to his relief their presence stopped Nagisa dead in her tracks, and she let out a very frustrated sigh.
"What are you two doing here? This is none of your business! Go away!" The taller man then stepped forward toward Nagisa while holding an arm back signaling the other boy to stay by the door.
"Our business or not, you can't just kidnap people and tie them up, let alone go around killing people." The man's voice was still very calm, making it even scarier.
"I can do whatever I please!" She then stepped back toward Ritsuka with the open gas can and raised it over his head but her arm was quickly grabbed by the man who was much stronger and taller than Nagisa. As he held her arm, he turned his head back toward the boy in the door way.
"Reiki, go get Ritsu-sensei."
"Ok Sasuke." He then quickly took off running down the hallway. Sasuke then turned back to Nagisa and grabbed the container out of her hand. Ritsuka could now see that Nagisa was getting very pissed off.
"You are so troublesome Sasuke! I should have never let you two attend the academy." This brought a scary grin to the man's face.
"But you did. Now I strongly suggest you run along now before Ritsu gets here." As soon as those words left his mouth however, Ritsu quickly entered the room with Reiki in toe. Sasuke then released his grip of Nagisa's arm and stepped out of Ritsu's way.
"Nagisa! What have I told you about abusing our students?!" Nagisa was now very clearly scared.
"I…But he isn't even a student!"
"He works for me, this means he is protected under the same rules." Ritsu then made his way toward the sound of Nagisa's cowering voice and latched firmly onto her arm. He then began dragging her toward the door.
"Sasuke, Reiki, thank you for informing me. I will be taking Nagisa to my office now to receive her punishment. Will you kindly take of Ritsuka?" They both simply nodded and watched as Ritsu dragged Nagisa out of the room. Ritsuka was immediately relieved when she was gone.
"Thank you so much for saving me. I'm Ritsuka." The tall man then made his way to the chair Ritsuka was bound to.
"It wasn't a problem. I'm Sasuke and this is-" He was quickly cut off as he was violently yanked completely off the floor and slammed hard against a wall, being held up by his collar.
"Soubi!" Ritsuka called to his Sentouki from his spot still tied to the chair, but Soubi completely ignored him to speak to the man he had pinned.
"Who the fuck are you?! What did you do to Ritsuka?! Give me one good reason why I shouldn't kill you!" Reiki had now run over to Soubi and was beating on him frantically with tears running down his face.
"Let him go! Let him go!" His assault however, did not even faze Soubi; he was too filled with rage to even notice. Ritsuka knew that Soubi wouldn't hesitate to kill him so he tried to snap Soubi out of it.
"Soubi! Stop! Put him down! He saved me!" Ritsuka's words finally reached him and Soubi dropped the man onto the floor. He then walked over to Ritsuka, leaned down and quickly untied him from the chair. As soon as he was free, Ritsuka collapsed into Soubi's arms, crying and snuggling into him furiously. Soubi gently stroked Ritsuka's head trying to calm him down, completely forgetting about the other two people in the room.
"Ritsuka…I heard your call but I'm sorry it took me so long. I should have been here faster." Soubi then squeezed the boy tighter, very relieved that he was ok. "Who did this to you?" Ritsuka then pulled his head from Soubi's chest and wiped away his tears.
"Nagisa-sensei. She wanted to kill me and replace me with another sacrifice that she had prepared for you." This filled Soubi with rage, but he fought it back for the time being to assess the rest of the situation.
"Who are they?" Soubi looked toward the two boys that were now standing at the front of the room with Reiki clasped tightly onto Sasuke's muscular arm. Sasuke was the one to answer Soubi in a very cool calm voice.
"I am Sasuke and this is Reiki. We are Ageless. We just happened to be taking a walk around the school and we heard someone scream, so we came to investigate." Soubi then stood up and gently released Ritsuka from his arms before stepping in front of him so that Ritsuka was safely hidden away behind him.
"I see…well I am Soubi and I'm sure you already know this is Ritsuka. We are Loveless. I apologize if I hurt you."
"I'm fine. I would have done the same thing in your position."
"Thank you very much for saving Ritsuka, I am in your debt."
"It wasn't a problem." Sasuke then reached out a large hand toward Soubi in an attempt to offer friendship, though his face was still rather expresionless. Soubi acknowledged and shook his hand firmly.
Once the tension was settled, both Sentouki calmed down and Soubi allowed Ritsuka to come out from behind him. Reiki then looked up at Sasuke silently asking for approval, which was granted by a subtle nod from the tall man. He then ran from Sasuke's side and threw his arms around a very surprised Ritsuka.
"It's nice to meet you Ritsuka!" Ritsuka tentatively hugged him back before wiggling away.
"Um, it's nice to meet you too." Reiki then put a huge grin on his face before running back to Sasuke's side. Soubi then decided to investigate these two further.
"So, you two are students here?" Reiki now took control of the conversation with a rather cute and bubbly voice as well as a big smile; he really seemed like a happy go lucky boy.
"Yes we are. We started attending here about six months ago. How about you guys, do you go here?"
"No, I used to but I graduated a while ago. We both work for Ritsu-sensei now."
"Wow that must be interesting."
"That's one word you could use to describe it." This made the red haired boy laugh. After a short moment of silence, Soubi was satisfied enough with two strangers and now had other things to attend to.
"Well, Sasuke, Reiki, again I thank you but we have to go now. I have something I need to take care of, so could you kindly tell me where I could find Nagisa?" Sasuke and Reiki looked at each other, thinking on whether they should let Soubi tear into Nagisa or not. Sasuke finally decided that he didn't really care what happened to that woman.
"She was hauled off to Ritsu's office. "
"Thank you." Sasuke just nodded. The four of them then left the classroom, parting in opposite directions once they entered the hallway. As they departed, Reiki called down the hallway to Ritsuka in his very happy little voice waving as he did.
"I hope to see you again soon Ritsuka!" Ritsuka just waved back slightly confused as to why that boy was so friendly even though they were basically strangers. They then made their way to Ritsu's office, leaving the other duo behind them.
As they walked back to their dorm, Reiki was firmly attached to his tall Sentouki and still had a big grin on his face.
"Hey Sasuke?"
"Yes?" Sasuke answered in his seemingly usual calm quiet voice.
"Can we keep an eye on those two from now on? I think we could be friends!" This finally summoned a small chuckle from the quiet man.
"If you would like to be friends with them, then I suppose we can keep an eye on them." Sasuke's voice was now loosening up and becoming slightly playful. Reiki then shot ahead of his Sentouki and stood in front of him, stopping him in his tracks.
"You're the best Sasuke! I love you!" Reiki then flung his arms around Sasuke's strong neck and pulled him down into a deep kiss, before they continued on to their room for the night.
Meanwhile…
Ritsuka was now struggling to keep up with Soubi as they grew increasingly close to Ritsu's office.
"Soubi, slow down!" Ritsuka's words had no effect, so he just tried to keep up with him as best he could.
When they arrived at their destination, Soubi stopped only for a brief second before violently flinging the door open. As soon as he stormed in he could see Ritsu sitting in usual spot at his desk and then his eyes filled with rage as he located Nagisa sitting in a chair in the corner of the room. As soon as Nagisa laid eyes on Soubi she knew that she had seriously messed up.
"S-Soubi...I-I…" This was all the small woman could get out before Soubi had picked her up out of her chair by both of her pigtails.
"OOWWW!"
"Shut up! How dare you ever try to take Ritsuka away from me." Soubi's voice was now extremely scary, so much so that Ritsuka didn't even try to intervene; instead he just clung onto the door frame.
"I-I was just trying to make you stronger…" This earned her a swift knee to the stomach before Soubi let go of her hair and let her fall to the ground, where she doubled over in pain.
"That's all you care about, how powerful a Sentouki is. It's pathetic. You will never understand that our true strength comes from our Sacrifice." She then painfully propped herself up against the wall, wiping away the trickle of blood that was flowing from the corner of her mouth.
"I guess I won't. Sacrifices are useless." Soubi's face was now bright red with anger. He stormed over to her and picked her back up off the floor, by her neck this time making sure to add plenty of pressure around her windpipe. Nagisa was now frantically clawing at his hands, trying to fight for breath. Finally after her movements began to slow almost to a stop, Ritsu stepped in.
"Soubi, that's enough. I still need her around whether you like it or not." Soubi very begrudgingly let her fall back to the ground but took great pleasure in watching her gasp for air like a fish out of water.
"Fine. But if you really like her alive, I strongly suggest you keep her away from both me and Ritsuka."
"I can do that. And rest assured that she will be receiving a fitting punishment. From now on Nagisa will be teaching the leadership class for the first year Sacrifices." This made Soubi chuckle in delight.
Soubi then walked over to Ritsuka and wrapped one of his strong arms around him, ushering him out of the building without another word to Ritsu.
"Let's go home Ritsuka."
"Ok." Ritsuka then cuddled closer to Soubi as they walked to the car together.
After making their way back to the car, they began their drive home through the heavily falling snow.
"Hey Soubi…"
"Yes?"
"What do you make of those two guys? Ageless."
"Well I'm not quite sure what to think of them. I have never heard of them before and they were defiantly an interesting duo."
"Yeah…I think I'd like to get to know them though." Soubi smiled softly as he looked over at his lover.
"You are such a kind person Ritsuka. I'm sure we can get to know them, and maybe even make some memories together." Ritsuka looked back at Soubi with a grin and red tinted cheeks.
"That would be really nice."
Once they arrived home, they were both drained from the day so they made their way straight to bed. Ritsuka crawled unto the large comforter and snuggled in tightly, very excited that tomorrow was Sunday and he could sleep in. Soubi quickly joined him, wrapping him up tightly in his arms. They both quickly drifted off into blissful sleep with no worries or cares about what the next day might bring.
