A/N: Hi all! So sorry for the delay on this one. I can't tell you how many times I've restarted it or redone parts of it. I have no intention of abandoning this story so don't worry if the odd chapter is a bit late. I hope you enjoy it. I hope I'm not rushing things but if you feel I am then please don't hesitate to let me know! Updates will have to slow down a little now as I'm starting a YouTube channel and have some voice acting work to get done. Worry not! I'll try at the very least to make sure that you wait no longer than a week!
I wanted to say thank you again for the reviews! I appreciate every word! There will be a small A/N at the bottom of this chapter.
Chapter 5 – Just Because You Paid For A Show Doesn't Mean You Have To Stay
He could be mauled by a bear. He could be attacked by a homeless person. The Hyakka could descend on them and execute him on the spot. Space pirates could land and threaten the safety of the planet unless they are given him specifically as a sacrifice. Perhaps the Shinsengumi discovers evidence of his sadistic crimes against innocent, pure members of the public such as young Yato females and rush in to apprehend him and demand that he commits seppuku in front of said girl in penance for his atrocious crimes against her.
Perhaps that last one was a little bit too specific but Kagura could think of many ways in which the sadist could meet his end.
She wouldn't be too picky so long as it happened within the next sixty seconds. She glared at her feet as she followed closely behind him. She refused to look up. She had never visited Yoshiwara alone. The only reasons she ever came to the city were to visit Hinowa and her son, Tsukuyo or to do a job. She had never strolled through the streets and never had any intention to. Otae had always told her that it was not the type of place that a young lady should go and yet, thanks to the sadist, here she was. Her internal crisis was openly displayed on her face for all to see.
Sougo, however, was not suffering from such problems. He walked casually along the streets as he navigated them to their destination. He could practically feel the heat radiating from Kagura's face on his back due to how closely she was following him. He found it amusing how such a brazen and foul-mouthed girl could feel so embarrassed in such a place. Her behaviour made it seem like there were naked people overflowing into the streets and fornicating left right and centre. He glanced over his shoulder to check on her. He had to restrain himself from laughing at her expression. They had yet to reach their destination and already she seemed at her limit. He contemplated being kind to her for a moment and then decided against it. His sadist mode activated.
He reached back with his hand and grabbed hers, pulling her forward so that she was walking next to him. He didn't release his hold as he felt her grab his wrist with her other hand. "Oi! What the hell do you think you're doing, bastard?! I'll rip your hand off and feed it to Sadaharu!" He felt her grip tighten on his wrist. Sougo sighed and continued to look forward.
"Yare yare, China. You're so quick to violence. Didn't Danna teach you how to use your words?" Kagura could feel the vein on her head enlarge. Sougo had made no move to remove himself from her person and that was unacceptable. She would teach the brat to respect his betters.
"Gin-chan always said that actions speak louder than words so if I want something done, I should do it and not talk about it."
"That doesn't sound like Danna. You can't just say "Gin-chan said" and act like whatever comes after it is true. Besides, do you always do what Danna tells you?" He looked down at her as he asked this, a smirk tugging at his lips. Kagura glowered at him in return.
"Gin-chan is Gin-chan. He'd say anything if you paid him to say it so therefore it's true." She jutted out her bottom jaw as her accent became thicker "and damn right I do what he tells me. Gin-chan's the boss and no one messes with him, punk." She attempted to pressure him into looking away and she leaned in closer to his face. Sougo didn't back away however and she found that it was becoming difficult to keep up with his pace in her current position.
"I need to tell Danna how to get better dogs then because the mongrel in front of me is defective." Kagura reacted instantly and he felt the pressure on his wrist intensify as she tightened her grip. As she let out a low growl, Sougo loosened his grip on her hand and twisted his wrist to dislodge her. As her hand slipped away, he reached across to grasp her stretched arm and twisted both arms behind her back. Kagura bucked wildly as she tried to break free but Sougo held firm. He had had to restrain far more brutish criminals than the small Yato. So long as she couldn't use her strength, he was fine.
"You're trying to hurt a police officer again, China. Do you want to be put in a cage that badly?" Her bucking only intensified at his words. "If you start foaming at the mouth, I'll have to tell Danna to put you down." Kagura stilled. Sougo tilted his head to one side in confusion. He had thought she would become more erratic, not upset. As he made to lean forward to check on her, he didn't see her leg sweep backwards to swipe his feet from under him. He released his grip as he fell backwards. He landed with a thump. He hadn't expected her sudden actions and was therefore unprepared for her to fight back at that moment. He had underestimated her. He looked up just in time to see Kagura's foot swing down but this time it was aiming for his head. He reached up and caught her leg by the ankle. Kagura responded by twisting her body and kicking her other leg towards him. He pushed her backwards as he back-flipped away from her. As he landed, he locked his gaze on her again as she charged at him. He side stepped her punch and raised his arm to wrap around her head to lock it in place.
Kagura heard him laugh and whipped her head up to see why. He leaned down slightly and said "There's a time and a place for that, China. Danna may be the saviour of Yoshiwara but they won't hesitate to put you down." Her eyes followed scanned the area and noticed two Hyakka members across the street from them walking by. They appeared to be engaged in conversation but their eyes were focused on the two. Kagura swallowed as she stood up straight, feeling Sougo's arm drop from around her neck to the small of her back. He gently pushed her forward and they continued towards whatever destination Sougo had in mind.
"Then next time, sadist, do as you're told."
"You seem to be forgetting who's in charge here, China. If you'd like, we can head back to the park later and I'll gladly pin you beneath me again." Kagura's shoulders tensed at his words. They were only an hour or so into the first day and she was ready to obliterate him. She felt him grab the back of her dress and tug her backwards to stop her walking. She hadn't realised that he had stopped. She turned to look at him but he was looking past her. She turned to face whatever was holding his interest. She couldn't see any signs, just a building that looked like any other in Yoshiwara. She noticed the door was open and it looked dark inside. She felt Sougo push her forward slightly in the direction of the building.
"And to think I was nice enough to bring you to a show."
She walked with him down a corridor. It was oddly silent in the building. It was well maintained and looked as though it was frequently used. The walls were a plain apricot colour with low lighting illuminating the way. There were a couple of doors that appeared to lead off from the hallway to separate rooms. To what purpose those rooms existed for she didn't know and she had no intention to find out. Sougo seemed to know where he was going. Kagura couldn't help but wonder how many times he had come here before and more importantly, what was it that kept bringing him back? He had mentioned something about a show?
As they made their way around a corner, Kagura saw that there was a desk with a young lady sat behind it. The woman was dressed in a beautiful red kimono that had a yellow floral petal pattern. Her hair was pinned up in a large top bun with a gold hair ornament. She looked up at them as they neared the desk and smiled. "Good evening, Okita-sama." The woman bowed her head slightly as she greeted them. "It's a pleasure to see you again. I hope that you are having a pleasant evening so far. I see you have a companion tonight. Are you here to watch the show?" The woman looked at Kagura, her smile still in place. Kagura smiled back but was unsure if she should speak for herself as she had no idea what the "show" was. She looked at Sougo and was stunned into silence. While she would not admit it out loud, Kagura was confused by Sougo's behaviour. His eyes had softened and he wore a dazzling smile that he freely gave to the woman. If Kagura didn't know any better then she would have thought him charming.
"Good evening to you too, Miyuki-san! If it's not too much trouble, we would be grateful to see the show but I know that we're a bit late. If it would be problematic for you, we could come another night." Kagura was still unable to contribute or comment. She was dumbfounded. Not only was the sadist being polite, he was being considerate! She glanced at the woman. How well did he know her? How did he know her? How often did he come here? What was this show?! She had so many questions!
"It's no problem, Okita-sama!" She raised a hand to her face. Her cheeks had turned a bright pinkish red colour as she struggled to find her words. "They 're a bit late starting so it's no bother!"
Sougo's smile returned as he tilted his head to one side. "Thank you so much, Miyuki-san. You're always so kind to me. I truly don't deserve such kind consideration." Kagura had to resist holding her stomach. The scene she was witnessing made her want to revisit her food from earlier that day. She did not have many regrets but this observation of the sadist was sure to make the list. She watched as the woman, now known as Miyuki, left through the door behind her. She returned her focus to Sougo only to witness the return of his dead fish eyed stare. She blinked and rubbed at her eyes. She was sure that just seconds ago he was projecting sparkles and sun beams.
"Oi, brat. What the hell was that? Are you schizophrenic or something? Toshi 2.0?"
Sougo turned to face her. He wore an expression that looked as though he were half asleep. Her perception was only strengthened as he lifted his hand to shield a yawn. "Hardly. If you want something then you catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Women here love you so long as you treat them like a princess." He turned back towards the desk as they heard Miyuki return. As she sat once more behind the desk Kagura grew concerned for the woman. If her smile grew anymore then her face may split in two.
"I'm so sorry for that. I just wanted to make sure that we had two seats next to each other. It's all ready for you, Okita-sama. That will be 4500 yen, please." She held out her hand to receive the money. She blushed and looked away as Sougo brushed his hand against her's when making the payment.
"Thank you so much again, Miyuki-san! You really are the best, you know that?" He laughed as he concluded their exchange. Kagura was at her limit. It reminded her of that time when the Shinsengumi dressed up as hosts. She recalled how proud the sadist was as he manipulated the customers. She truly believed that the tax robber was in the wrong line of work.
Kagura was so deep in thought that she hadn't realised that Sougo had walked off until Miyuki had called for her attention. "We hope that you enjoy the show, miss!" Kagura just nodded and followed Sougo. With any luck, whatever this show was it would be over quickly and she could go home. If she closed her eyes and listened hard enough, she was sure that she could hear her bed calling out to her.
If she had thought she was in hell before then she did not know how to describe her current location. The show had started not long after they had sat down. Due to their late entry, Miyuki had sat them at the back of the room which appeared to displease Sougo. She smiled at the thought. Sometimes, it was the little things in life that made it good. Her joy had been short lived however as the curtains were drawn back. Kagura could only stare wide eyed at the woman on the stage.
The curvaceous but slim woman wore a bright blood red kimono that hung loosely around her shoulders. It was wrapped tightly around her body accentuating the curve of her chest down to her petite waist and onwards to hug her hips. The woman withdrew two fans from her sleeves and opened them revealing a cherry blossom pattern that matched her kimono pattern. A slow but melodic music began to play and the woman proceeded to glide across the stage, her movements revealing a large split in her kimono leading up to her hip exposing her long, pale legs. Kagura watched in fascination. The woman's actions were fluid and hypnotising. The room was silent as they watched on. Kagura was in awe. The woman projected control as she progressed, rotating and waving the fans as she moved and twirled making them appear as an extension of herself. Kagura wondered if she would ever be able to do something so graceful.
Sougo had also become engrossed in what he was watching. Not by the dancer however, but rather by the expressions playing out on Kagura's face. He was a frequent visitor to this place and therefore while he found the performances beautiful they had become somewhat repetitive. It was worth coming more with the China girl however to see her wonderment and admiration at such a show. He had brought her here with the intent to embarrass her so completely that she would beg and plead for him to take her away. He had been waiting for the moment she would realise what she was watching to witness her face to turn brighter than her favourite Qipao but what he was viewing instead was more than a pleasant surprise. Perhaps he would gain more from tonight than he had expected. However, the real show was about to begin.
Kagura was so enraptured by the dancing that she failed to notice the changing tone of the music as it shifted. The woman finished her dance with her back to the audience. She placed her fans down and slowly dragged her hands up her body. As her hands reached her obi, she gave a light pull and let it drop to the floor. She arched backwards and stretched her arms out behind her. Her kimono flowed like water down her body as it fell to the floor. Kagura was sure that she heard her jaw hit the floor.
The woman revealed that beneath the Kimono she was wearing a tight black leotard that consisted of straps and what appeared to be netting. She turned seductively towards the audience as a chair was slid across the stage that she stopped with her foot. Kagura felt that she should look away but found that she was unable to tear her eyes from the sight. The woman's corset appeared to have thick black straps that crossed over her chest and down to her waist. Two more straps encompassed her hips and dipped down between her legs. Everything else was thinly veiled by the mesh-like material and left little to the imagination.
Kagura turned to face Sougo. He was watching the show with his usual fish eyed stare. Kagura felt infuriated. She struggled to find a reason for why he would bring her here. He didn't even look like he was enjoying it! Her hand launched to his leg as she gripped it tightly, her knuckles turning white. Sougo jumped from the sudden pain and glared at her. She glared back. "We're leaving. Now."
Sougo gripped her wrist and attempted to alleviate the pressure from his leg. He was already certain that he would have bruises tomorrow. He cursed the Yato girl for her brutish strength. "It's just a show. Can't handle a bit of flesh, China?" He tried to force his fingers under hers to pry her off but had no such luck. Her grip only tightened at his words. He gritted his teeth against the pain.
"Listen here, Sadist. I have no problem putting on a show of my own when I beat you black and blue and drag you out on your hands and knees. Like I said, we're leaving. Right now." As she went to stand up, Sougo gripped her wrist and squeezed on her pressure point. Her hand immediately released his leg as he kept his grip on her wrist.
"Well, China. I had no idea you were such an S. I wonder how far you'd go if given the chance." She watched as he licked his top lip. She hated that damn tongue. "However, for now, I'm the one in charge and I say that we're watching the show. Maybe you'll learn something." With that he faced the stage once more with her wrist still in his grip. She made a move to tug it away but felt his grip tighten once more and her hand spasmed. She tsked as she looked at the floor. He might be able to make her stay but that didn't mean that she had to watch.
Kagura was determined not to lift her gaze from the floor. She was sure the show couldn't be that long. She counted in her head the number of different ways she was going to hurt the sadist once they finally left. Game be damned. She would make sure that the brat couldn't walk by the time she was done with him. As she plotted his demise, she felt his grip loosen slightly on her wrist. She didn't make a move to remove it as she knew he would only grip it once more. Before she could contemplate any further, she felt his thumb brushing over her wrist. She tilted her head slightly to look at what he was doing. It was a small movement but she watched as he brushed his thumb in circles over the pulse point. She decided that it wasn't a bad feeling. On the contrary it felt oddly soothing and so she allowed him to continue.
Her head jolted up and she heard what sounded like a cry come from the stage. Her attention was drawn to a man that had appeared on the stage with the woman. He was dressed in a plain set of black trousers and a black shirt. The man looked rather ordinary and Kagura would have thought him a backstage member if not for his hold on the woman. She watched as the man withdrew something from his pocket. It appeared to be something long and silver. As he pulled it out, he moved so that the audience could see that what it was that he held. In his hand appeared to be a wide length of silk.
The man abruptly grabbed the woman by her hips and turned her around to face the chair. He reached forward and around her body as he wrapped the silk around her hips. He brought both ends to the small of her back and tied a small knot. He pulled both of her hands behind her back and bound them using the silk. Once that was done, he proceeded to wind the silk back around her hips once more tying a knot at her stomach. He lifted the top end of the length to the woman's mouth who gripped it between her teeth. Though she knew this was not likely a first-time show, Kagura could only speculate at how many times they had done this. They moved as though they were dancing still. The movements flowed into one another. While she could appreciate the fluidity of the performance she couldn't understand the point of what they were doing.
Sougo's eyes flickered between the show and Kagura's face. He was a little confused on why she hadn't demanded they leave once more at the turn the show had taken. While he felt intrigued at her interest, this was not what he had intended. He had wanted her to stutter and fluster. To twitch in her seat in desperation to leave. He had expected her to be mortified not fascinated. As he watched her, he slowly realised that China was more innocent than he thought and was more than likely confused. He had momentarily forgotten that Danna had taken her in when she was a child and highly doubted that he would permit her to explore topics such as sex. She probably didn't realise what it was that she was watching. Sougo looked back at the show. He no longer felt like being here. He decided that it was time to call it a night.
Kagura was oblivious to Sougo's thought process and was still watching the show. The man was smoothing his hands down the woman's body ending with one hand on the still dangling silk at the front and the other once again on the small of her back. His hands reached down as he passed the silk between her legs and lifted it up behind her back. He pulled it taunt making the woman grunt at the sudden tension. Kagura observed as the man tied the left-over length to the knot from the first bind. She couldn't understand what the point of this was. The man then spun the woman around once more and removed the silk from her mouth and held it in his hand. He walked a few paces away and lead the woman across the stage.
As Kagura finally realised the intent of the binding, she was trying to understand the point of it when she felt Sougo release her wrist. He leant towards her and spoke quietly. "Time to go, China. Some of us have work tomorrow." He didn't give her a chance to reply as he swiftly got up and quietly left the room. Kagura rushed to follow him. Her confusion kept her silent as she tried to process what had happened. The sadist seemed to be the same as usual as he walked slightly in front of her with his hands in his pockets. His face showed its familial expression but his eyes seemed out of place. They appeared hard and focused. As though he were trying to work out a problem.
Kagura thought back on what had just taken place. She truly didn't understand the point of the show but she had thought that they would have stayed for the duration. Miyuki had clearly stated that this wasn't his first time so why did he leave early? The brat slacked off in work all the time so she hardly believed his shift excuse. Kagura quickened her pace slightly as they neared the exit so that she was by his side. "Hey, brat, what was the point of that? What did we just watch? Oi! Stop ignoring me you-"
Before she could finish, just as they were exiting the building Sougo had suddenly thrust his arm out and backwards, pushing her back inside the building and around the door frame. Kagura hit the floor forcefully. As she prepared herself to tackle the sadist to the ground in retaliation, Sougo's next words made her freeze in her place.
"Yo, Danna. Didn't expect you here tonight."
A/N: Okay, so I'm not an expert at bondage but I have done some research for this chapter. The type of knot I attempted to describe is the "Matanawa Osanpo". Hopefully, I didn't mess it up too badly!
Chapters will be getting more intense as this story progresses so consider this a trial run. Also, while there will be moments of Kagura being an S and Sougo being an M, this story will mainly focus on Kagura being and M and Sougo an S. While I feel that they would sometimes switch roles, I feel that this setup would be more often and likely their dynamic.
Hope you enjoyed the chapter! Please feel free to let me know what you think!
