Shattered Mirror

Ok…… sorry I'm late but lately I had a lot of work at college and my boyfriend keeps me busy too! Yayayyyy. Well hope you like this chapter is lighter than the others but it has his yaoi parts of course.

What else….. Well you know that I'm not own this, but the story came out of my head and my brother and friend's help.

Ok now to the show!!



Chapter Six: My Relex, My Mirror

Kouichi's S.O.S.


It was like hours, he could not believe what he was seeing. This really was disgusting. He had to do something, but what? All this years of happiness with his mom were the hell to his brother, this could not be happening… He was trying to think hard what to do when he felt a hand that was pulling him to the ground. He saw Takuya that was as white as he but his face was expressing something more…

- We have to do something! I didn't…. I mean he… didn't tell me this; I have no idea of this… Oh my God! - He was shaking like mad, both of them were.

- Yes we have to do something… Let's get in! I have to bring him with me; I can't leave him here with that man! Let's go! - he was standing up and searching with a quick look for something like a bat or a heavy rock whatever he found first but once again the hand stop him. - Now what?


- You can't enter like that there! Are you crazy! If he doesn't kill you then your mother was going to when she gets the know! - Kouichi was going to answer him but was stop by a scream inside. - Yes I know you want go in and me to but think a little what you are going to do. I know this man better than you so I think it is better to wait until he is drunk so we can storm in there.


- Probably you are right but what about Kouji? Your plan has something that could bring Kouji some kind of sake? I can't let him suffer more! We don't know what is happening there, maybe he is killing Kouji and we are here, well sit under the window trying to do something when he get drunk!


- I know, I know but as you said you don't know what is happening there. For what I know this man have weapons, I mean guns, knives, chains, and a lot of stuff that could kill you in a minute, and if he kill us then who is going to save him? The policemen didn't know that this is happening here, your mother and mine didn't know where we are, nobody knows! So we have to stay calm and wait for the first opportunity to get him out of there.

Takuya was right, They have to wait so he sit down again and try to cover his ears with his hands, but it seems not to work cause he continue hearing the yelling of his brother, he could hear him cry. He was going to stand up and get in the house when Takuya push him into the brush - shhhhh! Some one is coming… - they stay silent waiting for someone when suddenly a man appeared. As Takuya said he was drank, the smell was to strong. He was walking by now down the street and disappeared in one corner. This was the time!



Kouji's S.O.S

"What is happening here? I have seen a death omen! Why I'm not dead! Don't tell that the old lady lie to me! I have figured it out these years ago, no one really loves me, and everyone seems to hate me! What have I done to you people?"



By now Kouji was in the middle of the bed and his father, the man who wapingping him was in the top. By now the dress was the one that was in the middle of them. The man sits down in Kouji's legs and then sits the boy too. Kouji was beginning to love that dress until his father put it away. He felt miserable. He has to do something, he had to runaway but with his father on at the top was an impossible mission.

Kouji was waiting for this to stop all this abuse when he felt and intense pain that made him scream like mad, his father was biting him like a dog, tears were flowing down his cheeks.

- So… I see that you like to scream…. Then let's make it a little fun. - Kouji didn't like that tone of voice; he knew that more pain was going to come. The man stands up and grabs him by the hair pulling him to the floor. Kouji try to think something nice, something that would make him forgot what he was living now… his mother came to his mind. Her face, her eyes, it was a pain to think she was dead…..

- What are you thinking? Do you want this to end? Don't worry it is just beginning. - The man realizes him from the hair and turn him face to the floor. Once again he smashed the boy. Kouji could taste the blood that was running from his lips. And the he feel it. His father was inside him, the pain this time was bigger than the others and he didn't know why. He screams with all his soul until his lungs were without air, tears once again were showed in his face and when they were falling they were mixing with the blood.


- "Stop, please, stop! IT HURTS!!! Please… STOP!!!"

- You want me to stop? But honey you like this, I know you love it. - He didn't stop. But the worst of it was that he thinks that the boy enjoys with it and because of that he began to enter him with much force and in a faster way. Kouji could not support this much, his screams were transforming in little whispers. His eyelids were closing and his breath was slower than hours ago.

After a few minutes the man notice this and with a kick he left the boy "if she sleeps then this is not going to be so fun" he think "maybe it would be better is I let her sleep a little" so he dressed him with the girls clothes again and put him on the bed. His face was wet in a mixture of blood, tears, and sweat. He sat down at Kouji's side and began to stroke his hair. Suddenly the boy began to open his eyes very slowly.

Kouji by now was beginning to hate himself. Why did he have to wake with that man at his side? Why? The man runs his hand in all his body and then he take out something from his own pocket. - Honey you seem so tired maybe you need something that… don't now made you feel better when we play, made you more creative… Now open your mouth. - What the hell he was talking about kouji thought but he had no time to react because his father was opening his mouth by now and was giving something to him, he could feel a pill but... a pill for what? Of course he was not going to eat it. He was going to wait for a moment when his father was not looking at him to put that pill into the trash. - Did you eat it? - He nodded - I don't believe you - The man press Kouji's nose and stay like that for a while. Kouji try to resist without air for a while but it was impossible, he had to open his mouth… He had no other choice and so he did, unfortunately he eats the pill.

At first he felt normal but a few seconds later all his body was relax, he feel like he was floating in the sky but things then become not so great. He run to the bathroom, he felt sick, the problem was that he didn't see the walls, everything was spinning, he crash against a wall so he try to stay there calm, but he couldn't. He vomits. He saw then something like his father but was transforming in …. A train. A train that kicks all the air he had. Was he dead? He thought. He began to laugh, he doesn't know why but by now everything looks great. He began to cradle a little and look trying to find the train but it seems it had gone. He was alone in a field. He tries to walk a bit but it seems that things like flowers and cactus were moving. So he decides to sit in a middle of the field. But suddenly something weird appeared. He notice that two cactus were talking to him… this was so funny. But he can't understand what they were saying. It seems like they were trying to make him stand up, to move him but in their effort they were hurting him with their needles. It hurt so much.

He decide to stand up, he walk a bit and then run. He was not going to let them hurt him more. He run until he crash again, again with the train, but this time the train seems to have hands and with those powerful hands he was trough against something. He was feeling sick again, his eyes were closing like courtines do when the show ends…. This was so funny….



Kouichi's S.O.S.

This was the time they were waiting for, the man has left the house, and maybe he would be here in a couple of hours, so they had to hurry up. Both boys run to the door and fortunately it was open. They walk trying to look were Kouji could be but with out lucky when they heard him. The sounds were like laughing and they where coming from one door that was left open. They run to it and what they saw was other thing very different of what they had seen hours ago.

Kouji was in the corner of the room, right behind the night table, he was like he was hiding covering his face but laughing at the same time.

- Kouji? Hi! It's me, Takuya remember?? This is going to sound crazy but the boy at my side is Kouichi, your brother. - Kouji was looking at them. They get a little scared when they saw his face that was cover with blood. But when they were talking to him a funny expression was draw in his face, like he could not understand them.

- Kouji? Are you all right? Come on we have to go before that man get in - but Kouji continue with his funny face - come on Kouji stand up we have to go! - By now Kouichi and takuya grab him by his arms and try to pull him to stand up but he refused them. He said something like "it hurts" and try to make the aside.

- Kouji, what happen to you? Do you want to stay here? Come on let's get out! - Kouji stand up and walk a little then turn to us, it seems that he was going to fell in the next step. - Kouji come on let's go! - Kouji took a step behind and run to the door as the same time they heard a sound probably at the front door... - Kouji come on the man have arrive let's go trough the window! - but it was to late Kouji was now at the living and a few seconds later they saw him fly against the wall and fell there probably unconscious. They have to hide but in that dorm was not the best option so they run into the next one that was so much little than the others and very dark. They get in and close the door slowly.

- What are we going to now! If he found us … Oh my god! What are we going to do?"

- Takuya first of all calm down! The question here is how we are going to get out of here with Kouji. But what happen to him? He looks like …. Drug. Where are we? -Kouichi began to look where they are. The smell was more like a cabinet than other thing. He suddenly found a something that seems like a closet. With the lights of they couldn't see anything.

- Kouichi… did you hear that? Sound like steps, they are getting closer.

- Come here quickly! Let's hide here! - Takuya run in time and they both enter in the closet. Seconds later the door open and the light were turn one. The man was carrying Kouji and was putting him on the little bed. The dress has fresh blood in the back. Now they could see the room. It was as little as he had image a while ago, the night table was a box and in the top of it was a picture frame with a drawing of his mother. There were also a lot of bandages and pills. In the floor were all spread tiny pieces of glass and a bunch of drawings. And in one of the walls a window not as big as Kouichi dream but it was going to be the size for them.

- Hope you had sweet dreams babe - then the man kissed the boy meanwhile his hand was playing under the dress. Kouichi and Takuya were getting sick for just watch that. The man sudd sto stop and look around and with a suspicious look he left the room.


The boys wait a few minutes before they get out of the closet. There he was Kouji sleeping peacefully in that bed. Kouichi run to him and try to carry him. Kouji was as light as a feather and his breath was to slow… Takuya open the window and was the first to get out of the house. Kouichi try to made Kouji get out through the window without hurting him even more. After a couple of minutes they were out.

- Now what? You can't take Kouji to your house because your mom would be like crazy if you tell him that you have seen your father…..

- I have no other option; I prefer the yelling than left him there again.

- What you talking with your mother first and me waiting for you with Koori at the door? You know that your mother will have a shock after your story.

- And that is why I prefer to enter with him than talk first to her and not let him in.

- Ok man you are right once again. Let's go!

The boys try to go as fast as they could but with the snow even walking was a problem and with Kouji at the back was worse. When they finally arrive to the house Ms Kimura were waiting for them. Her face was a mixture of angry and worry and a bit of curiosity to know where were them and what was his son carrying at his back, but when they began to get closer to her view she finally figure it out what had happen. The angry disappeared of her face and the concern began to show. - Please tell me that the thing at the back is not what I think. Tell me that the thing at your back is a dog or a big toy! Tell me that you were all this time at Takuya's house. Tell me you didn't go to that place to look for your brother…- she was beginning to cry now. Kouichi didn't know how he was going to tell her all the story cause even for him that was something that he prefers to forget.

- Mom...I … well … why don't we get inside, I think it would be better…- Takuya in order to help try to push her a bit meanwhile Kouichi began to enter to the house. Kouichi put his brother in the couch for a while, and turn to his mother. Her face was now more relax.

- Wow, it is a girl? Where did you find her? Poor thing … what happen to her? Who is she? I was beginning to think that you had disobeyed me and that you went to look for your brother. What a fool am I!

- Well mom…actually I disobey you…. I actually want to present you… Kouji. You see I found him a time ago but I didn't figure it out. - He could now sense the fear in his mother, her eyes were more shining and the tears were fighting for get out. - I think it would be better for you if you sit and listen all what I had to tell you. - He began to tell his mother all what had happen weeks ago. For some moments she seems to pass out and her eyes were focus in her other son…. When Kouichi finish she stand up and look at the boys

- No one has seen you… right? I mean you didn't left a clue or something that could guide him to this house …right?

- Well I think we didn't, we try to touch nothing …- they didn't left any clue. They just get out of that house as fast as they could and didn't left anything there… or did they? - Why did you ask that mom?

- Well… you didn't know your father… you'll see your father is that kind of man that could find his penny in a bunch of them. If you have left a clue somewhere then he is going to find us. And I don't want to know what would happen if he find us…

- But it doesn't matter mom! What we have to do is just call to the police. Look all this abuse, that man has to be in jail! What reminds me… momji iji is hurt, he is bleeding… - her eyes wide open and in a second she was at the side of Kouji. She tries to stand up him. His face was red cause the blood and so was his dress. She put Kouji again on the couch her face now worried than ever.

- Snow is still there?

- Um…. Yes there is … snow…. - dammit! They have left prints in the snow but… every one could leave prints in the snow, why is he going to guess that it was they? Or he could? What of special this prints are?……… Oh God! Kouji! Kouji was bleeding the entire ride! - Mom …… I…..

- We have no time! We have to get out of here!

- Mrs. Kimura… but I think you don't have to worry until tomorrow. When we left the house he was so drunk that he was going to sleep and he will sleep all the night. Tomorrow morning when he figure it out that Kouji is not there and began to look for you then it would be late for him, by that time you have to put a demand against him. And everything is fine.

- Is not that simple Takuya… He had contacts everywhere, what I had to do is runaway like always, but this time with my two sons. But first we had to clean and heal Kouji. Tomorrow morning we will go to the police station. Now boys help me with Kouji please. Take him to the bathroom.

Mrs. Kimura brought shampoo, soap and a clean towel. She ask Kouichi to bring some clothes for his brother, meanwhile Takuya was putting water in the kettle. She was left alone now with his son. She warms the water in the bathtub, and began to remove the dress of his son. His body was light and have a lot of bruises everywhere, his skin was soft as Kouichi's and his hair was as long as she, black and silk. She carries him and put him slowly in the water. His eyes began to open but at first it seems that he could not focus well and when he look at her his eyes that were dull at first wide and shiny as kouichi when hi gets excited but in this case Kouji began to shake….



Kouji's S.O.S

Wet…. He could feel something wet…. He was in the middle of water…. But how?… His head hurts ...did he have hurt his head lately? … Of course he has, he always got hurt when he is near to his father. He began to open his eyes slowly because he really didn't want to see his father's face at first. But when his eyes were open he could not recognize the place…. He was sure that it was a bathroom cause he could focus not so well a toilet. What he was sure is that this was not the bathroom of his house cause the color and the warm water, it was relaxing… he look at himself… he was naked… how? Suddenly a hand was running his hair, maybe his father, he hate when his father do that, it was disgusting. He decides to turn his face and try to look for the door. But when he turn he could see a person at his side but it was not his father, he couldn't recognize, it was so blur…. One thing he was sure is that this person was a woman, he close his eyes for a moment and open them again this time he could focus better, he search for the woman and when he found she his eyes wide open. - Could this be possible? Am I dead…… mom? - The woman, she was exactly the same, she looks just like he had dream her, thin, silk black hair as his, her eyes were as blue as his own. Of course he was dead, finally he was with his mother. He couldn't stop the tears. He couldn't stay there al the day, he had to do something… and so he did. He tries to stand up but all his back hurt and tries to reach her with his hands. He was going to touch her….

- Ok mom! What do you think about this…. - Kouichi enter in to the bathroom bringing a few clothes for his brothern thn their eyes meet. Kouji recognize the boy now, he was exactly the same as he just with shorter hair… he was the bear boy, he was the boy that live with her mother now, he was his dead omen. He was the one that was taking the love of his mother away from him…. But he call her…mom!?

- Thank you sweet heart! Look he wake up just a few minutes ago. Kouji…. Honey… are you all right? - But Kouji didn't respond … he was not paying attention anymore to her…. If she was the mothf thf that boy then… what about him? - Honey are you all right?

- I….I….I am not your honey….I'AM NOT YOUR HONEY!!!!!….. Don't call me honey, I'm not a honey! No! No! No! - Everything was bad. He had no mother in heaven now, his mother was dead even in heaven. He didn't even want to be this dead, he prefer to live again but not with his father, he wants to be alone. All the dreams he has about her mother were broken now. Tears run freely across his face.

- Is something wrong with Kouji? - That voice…. He could recognize that voice. He hadn't heard it for a while… it was Takuya's voice… was he dead too? - Kouji! You finally awake, great! We where waiting for you to wake up…. But why are you crying?

- Are you dead too? … Takuya?

- You are really funny Kouji, You have not change a little! Well, probably you didn't remind this, but I think it is better for you… now I mean… - remind? What does he have to remind? He didn't understand anything right now, what the hell he was talking about? Everything was so confuse. If he was not dead then…. This woman… No that was impossible; she couldn't be… alive? Could she? - Kouji… maybe it would be better if I present you cause your face is telling me that you just don't get it. It is very simple. She is your mother, as you see she is not dead as you believe, and this is Kouichi your twin brother. All your dreams are true now! Kouji? Are you here?

He could not believe it. His mother was alive but… why did she have to appear now? Why does she didn't move a finger for him in all this years? Why? Does she forget that she has another son? Or she, as his father, hates him too? Does she know all the things he had to live?

But it seams that she had read his thoughts cause she come closer to him and with her hands took Kouji's face and look at him, right to his eyes. - I was looking for you a long time ago, but you know how is your father as well as I do, I really try. When I have got a clue of where do you where it was too late. I have hopes of finding you again but I never think that your brother will found you. Now… here we are. We have to tell everything you have lived to the police, we have to put that man in jail, and we have to start living in peace. I love you and every day that have past without you were like a nightmare. Every birthday I remember you. - Tears were flowing down from her eyes. He had to do something. He doesn't know her very well but something in his heart was telling what he had to do. He was feeling the need of cry too but he couldn't do that, not in front of Takuya and …his brother. He looks at her too and then he hugs her, shyly but it was his first hug. She hug him to but stronger than him. The hugging thing was nice, he felt like in heaven, he feel protection, love. No one has hugged him like this before. His back was aching but it doesn't matter now. He feels another hug. His brother was with him; it was a big hug now. He couldn't stop his own cries now.



When they get separate all the pain come again. His mother noticed this so they finish the bath and then she began to heal his injuries as best as she can. What he had more was bruises. He could begin a collection of them. His mother gives him some pills to stop the pain but he couldn't take them without food in his stomach.

- So boys… what ou wou want to eat?

- What about fried chicken Mrs. Kimura?

- That would be nice mom, why not the fried one, the one that you prepare with sauce! - Kouichi was licking his lips, he looks starved like Takuya.

- What do you prefer Kouji? - What does he prefer? He doesn't know what, he was not hungry by now, what he only want was… He then remember, he had dream with it every rainy day, he wants… - I just want hot chocolate… please… Mrs. Kim… mom.

- Only that? But you are so skinny; you have to eat something more, but if you just want that then all right… Hot chocolate for you and chicken for Kouichi and Takuya.

An hour lately he was sited in the table full of food. He eats sandwiches and drinks his chocolate in the time that Takuya and his brother clean the table. He could feel his mother's eyes on him every moment. During the lunch Kouichi told him how does he found him and how that he became Takuya's new friend. He was beginning to feel very tired, his eyes were closing, and it seams that those pills were drowning him to sleep. Their mother realized them to sleep. Takuya stay in house for a sleep over one: cause he didn't want to gd twd two: it was too late to go to is own house. The boys fix Kouichi's bedroom for the sleepover. Kouichi's bed was bigger than the one he has and was more comfortable.

- Ok, let's do this - said Kouichi - you Takuya could sleep in my sleeping bag and Kouji and me in my bed. What do you think Kouji?

- Thank you. I mean for what you did for me. I really didn't know I have a brother and…

- Hey! We are brothers, remember that. Now let's sleep. Kouichi turn and suddenly a pillow hit him in his head. Takuya was beginnings with the play. - Takuya, you are going to pay for this! - And so he does. The battle begin, first were pillows, then were sheets, shoes, pants, socks, everything that were closer to their hands. Kouji could do nothing than laugh. He hasn't laugh since… since… well he doesn't remember when. But his mistake was stay in the middle of the battle cause suddenly a book hit him on his knee causing him to end in the floor. He didn't have any force to stand up against a dictionary.

- Ups! Sorry I didn't…. Are you alright? - Takuya was ashamed.

- Yes, it is nothing. I'm good, really!

- Look what you did! You have to be more careful with him! You know all what had happen!

- What do you mean with that? Do you think? That I did it in purpose? - He could see that Takuya was gettingryngry, and all was his fault.

- Kouichi, really, it doesn't hurt. It was not his fault. It was mine, I should have moved when you began to battle, I'm really sorry. Gomen.

- What are you talking about? Listen. It was not your fault, it was ours, we can't play through things to each other, and because of that you got hurt. We have to apologize with you.

- Don't do it, please!

- Boys sleep now! It is late. - She enters to the room only to find everything out of place. She wait for the boys to get in their sleep positions and gives a kiss for each one. Before she went out of the room she turns the light off and closes the door.

Everything was dark now. He tries to sleep but he couldn't. And then he close his eyes but he began to see other things, things that were not as happy as he was moments ago. He remembers his father. What will happen to him? What was he doing now? Does hve nve noticed that he was not at home? He knows that sooner or later he would figure it out. And then… No he had to think in other things. He had to sleep. Tomorrow was going to be a brand new day so he had to sleep. He closes his eyes again but this time what he saw made him shiver. Kouichi….he had watch everything of what had happen in the kitchen. He had seen all those horrible things that his father does to him. That was not good. Now he and Takuya knows the secret…

He couldn't sleep now. Takuya and his brother were sleeping peacefully as he has to but… he decide to walk a bit, so he get out of the room and began to look all over the house. He sits in the couch and began to look some pictures of Kouichi and his… no, their mother. They were so happy. He decides to go back to bed but in the middle of the hall he found her door open. He slid inside and found her sleep in her bed. Her bed was like Kouichi's but her room was all in order. He looks over her mirror. He noticed something. His face looks rare, like his reflex looks better than he does. Could it be possible? Under the mirror were some of her jewelry and a blue ribbon. He grabs it and smells it. It smells like a shampoo. His mother began to move a little and without noticed he slid the ribbon in his pocket. - Kouji? Is that you?

- Yes mother, I… I… I can't sleep.

- Come here then. Let's sleep together. - Sleep with my mom? He was not sure, he remembers sleeping with his father and he doesn't like. But he has to try it. He lay at her sidt int in the corner of the bed. - Come on Kouji I'm not like your father, I'm not going to bite you. - She was right. He moves closer to her and closes his eyes. He feels his mother's fingers playing with his hair but definitely not like his father. - Kouichi always come to sleep with me when he was little. - mot mother began to tell him stories about Kouichi when he was little. He began to imagine them but sometimes he forgot that they were talking about his brother and he began to imagine that the boy of the story was he. His eyes were closing; he was beginning to fell asleep when a smell wakes him up…




TBC….

Ok this was the end of this chapter, and I'm thinking in one more chapter and that means the end of the story. Yeeeeahhhh!


For this chapter I have to said that Kouji was flying so high that he began to see other things that in common sense are not normal, things that didn't have any sense like me today but it was the first thing that come to my head. You know that when your brain doesn't want to work then is impossible to make sense.


By now my boyfriend is giggling me in my ear and is trying to make me stop here, people just for you to know he was the cause why I left here this chapter! I really want to write a bit more so, if you want to kill him do it now! Oh Oh my God he is whispering my ear…no, no, don't do that!…. Oh my God I have to go!


Yes, yes I was forgetting. I want to thank the people who had write reviews and sorry for the wait. I also want to thank a girl named amy who gives me the direction for the translation pages that helps me in this chapter (hope it have work!).


Bye bye

See you soon!!!
