I honestly have no idea how I am writing these chapters so fast, because I am literally starting each after posting the last. I don't know how long I will be able to keep up this pass, but hopefully it will last a little longer.

However, after today I might not have as much time to right, because the next few days are going to be a little busy. Plus at the weekend I am going to take a three hour drive to help my sister and her new husband finish moving into their new house, so it might take some time for the next chapter.

But I will still try, so I might get another in before then, Insomnia and fear of being reliant on drugs gives me a lot of free time at night, so you never know.

Chapter 4- The Leash

XXX

Takami made sure to keep her face blank as she leg the group through the tower to the top floor, not even listening to them when they tried to ask questions, and kept her back to them at all times.

Karasuba had dragged Harry away after telling her to take the group to Minaka's office, and she was sure if it had been anyone other the grey heard Sekirei they would have lost a hand before he move in for the kill, but that was why she was taking them instead of Karasuba.

At least they were behaving better than the last group of English people she had to deal with, they didn't wonder off, didn't insult her for being a woman, and most importantly the kids didn't set off any programs that would lead to the deaths of over thirty people.

Having said that, she didn't like them. If they hadn't left Harry with the Dursleys, he wouldn't have become so…broken, so as far as Takami was concerned they were indirectly responsible for the deaths of all the people he had killed over the few years.

She lead them to the, in her opinion overly large and imposing doors that lead to Minaka's office, she paused to bang her fist on it three times before waiting a second before opening the door.

She had made the mistake of not waiting once, only to walk in and find the idiot standing in front of a mirror in nothing but his boxers and a cape, trying out different 'dramatic posses' as he had called it. Needless to say she waited at least five seconds after that, which proved to be enough time for him to at least get dressed.

Takami stood to one side as she gestured for the group to step in, which they did after hesitating, before closing the door behind them. She had noticed that they seemed to have lost a lot of their confidence since Harry had broken those sticks they had seemed be plan on using as weapons, especially the old man, but filed it away for the moment.

Minaka's office was very big, too big considering it only had a large desk and chairs in it, with the back wall being nothing but windows that lead out into a balcony. Behind the desk was a large, leather chair that was currently turned away from them, and it was from this chair that a voice came from.

"Greetings, Mr Dumbledore, Mr and Mrs Potter, I have been expecting you…"

The chair turned around, revealing Minaka sat in it wearing his usual all white suit and cape, one leg crossed over the other and a condescending smirk on his face, it was clear he was trying to look confident and imposing. However, the illusion was ruined by the fluffy pink cat doll sat on his lap, which he was stroking gentle with one hand as it kept saying 'I luv you' in an over sweet voice.

Rubbing the bridge of her nose in frustration, Takami walked over to stand next to the man, before repeatedly hitting him in the head with her clipboard.

"Aw! Takami-kun-aw! Stop-aw! Your running my-aw! Entrance-aw!-aw!-aw!"

"Shut up to idiot! This is not the time for your stupid games! ACT YOUR AGE!"

This went on for the next few minutes until the clipboard finally snapped in two, an a somehow fully recovered Minaka sat up straight and gestured for his guests to take a seat, a large grin on his face.

"Please, take a seat, we have much to talk abo-"

"Who the hell are you? And what have you done to our son?"

Pausing mind sentence to look at James, who was glaring at the odd man in front of him, Minaka much to Takami's surprise actually got serious for a moment even though the grin never left his face.

"I assure you, Mr Potter, I have done nothing to little Harry-kun. His current mind-set is the result of years of abuse, before latching himself onto one of my employees shortly after their deaths, who you have already met. While I admit Karasuba might not have been the best choice to raise a child, it was out of my hands. As for just who I am, that is simple…I am the man that has just save the lift of you and the rest of the people standing with you, and am currently the only thing standing in the way of Harry-kun bursting through those door and literally tearing you to pieces."

Ignoring the looks of shock he was being given from the people in the room, Minaka grabbed a file on his desk and gave it to Takami, before gesturing for her to give it to them. She recognised it instantly as being Harry's file, the only one because Minaka refused to keep a digital copy of it in case Matsu was able to hack into it, before walking over and giving it to James Potter with a stony expression on her face.

Before they even had time to open it, Minaka started speaking again, his voice still that odd mix of serious and playful.

"In that file is everything we know about Harry-kun, starting from the day he was found in Mr Dursleys car shortly after their deaths, which he had been locked in for several hours. You will find pictures of his physical condition from then up to the present, including some interesting shots of the scars covering his body though most are on his back, along with medical records. It also includes a psychological profile, and listed the mans of all the people he has killed over the four and a half years, not including those killed on missions…those are on the next page."

As he was saying this, Takami watched as the two adult Potters and the elderly man read the file, turning paler by the second. Lilly seemed to have reached a point her stomach couldn't handle anymore and ran over to a bin in the corner of the room to be sick, while the two young children could only look at the adults in the room in confusion, unable to understand what was going on.

For the next half an hour the white haired scientist watched as the group looked over the file in silence, at some point having taking the offered seats in front of the desk, as she stood next to Minaka with her arms crossed over her chest and a frown on her face. They waited until the three had finished reading, there expressions getting more and more distraught as they did, until finally they place the file back on the desk in front of them.

The moment it was back on the desk, Minaka grabbed it and placed it in a draw, locking it.

Lilly seemed to be in a catatonic state, her eyes wide and unblinking as she held the twins closed to her chest, her breathing slightly uneven. James looked like he had aged 20 years in the last few minutes, his hands shaking as he laced them together in front of his face, and sending worried looks to his wife and children. Without a doubt the one taking everything the best was Dumbledore, though he did look pale, and was sending looks at the distressed Potter family.

Being the only one able to actually talk at the moment, Dumbledore locked his eyed on Minaka, a small frown on his lips.

"While I am…grateful for the information you have given us, I admit I am confused as to why you have volunteered this information. I am was not familiar with the creatures now as 'Sekirei', before now, and have a feeling it is not something may are…"

The grin that crossed Minaka's face was something Takami would have expected to see on Harry or Karasuba, but wasn't quite evil enough, and sent a shiver down her spine.

"You are a clever man…even if you look like Santa, Mr Dumbledore. You see I was watching your conversation with Harry-kun from a security camera, and heard you very clearly saying you had knowledge about why and how he is able to do the things he does. Right now I am the only thing standing in the way of your, what I can promise you if passed history is anything to go on, an extremely painfully death. You are going to tell me everything, every little detail, and I like what you say I will make sure you can leave Japan with all, if not most, of your limps still attached. If I don't like what you tell me…well the information I just gave you will not matter anyway, will it?"

At this point Takami was staring at Minaka with almost as much shock as their guests, have only seen the man act like this maybe two or three times before today, and one it always scared her.

Then once again, the effect was broken in an instant, the need to beat him with another clipboard got unbelievable strong.

"But first…let have some tea! Takami-kun, bring us some teas and snacks! AW!"

"I'M NOT YOUR FUCKING MAID YOU IDIOT!"

Harry could feel his whole body twitching, every muscle in itching…aching!

His mind was a storm of contracting thoughts, all fighting for dominance in his head, over lapping each other and screaming at him.

His family had come for him…they abandoned him…but they came…they left…he looked just like his dad…they left him with the Dursleys…he had his mother's eyes…she was the sister of the woman that used him as a slave…he had a brother and sister…they got to live with his mum and dad while he rotted away in a cupboard…they were his family…they were his family!

"AAAAWWW!"

Letting out a scream, Harry swept his hands to his right, sending everything in his room flying into the wall. But it didn't stop there, everything started spinning around him, almost as if he was in the eye of a storm, his hands clutching his head as he continued to scream.

"Hey, shut the hell up, your giving me a headache!"

His head shooting to look at the door, Harry saw Karasuba leaning against it with a small frown on her face as she watched his bed pass her.

The sight of his Sekirei instantly calmed him down, the flying furniture crashing to the floor, before he ran over and wrapped his arms around her in what, if she was a human, would have been a bone breaking hug.

"Karasuba…I want to kill them…I want to kill them! But…"

XXX

Karasuba felt a jolt of fear shoot through her body at that one word, her thought filling with the implications.

Was he actually thinking about leaving with them…leaving her? No…she had moulded him perfectly, twisted his mind so he was just like her, there should be no doubts in his head, no hesitation. But he said BUT, that meant he was thinking about not killing them! And if he wasn't going to kill them he might actually go with them!

Dam Minaka, she should have just let Harry kill them in the heat if the moment, then he wouldn't have had time to second guess himself! It would have probably been the finally push he needed to insure there was no way for him to go back!

What would happen if he left her…what would she do?

Despite the fact she would never admit it to even him, Karasuba couldn't live without her little Ashikabi…she wouldn't live without him.

Circling his still slightly small form with her arms, pulled him even closer to her body, her usual unnerving smile on her lips.

"…but?"

"…there still my family…right?"

Her grip tightening slightly, one hand moving up to hold the back of his head, Karasuba let out an exaggerated sigh as she slowly ran her hand up and down his neck in a soothing motion.

"But Harry-chan…what is family? Your Aunt, Uncle and Cousin were your family, and look what they did to you. And these are the people that left you with them…knowing exactly what would happen, how could they not? They Knew how you would be treated, knew they would hate you for being different, but they still left you with them. And now, after almost ten years they show up pretending to care…with twins! They had moved on with their lives, left you behind, and now that you are so strong they come and try and claim you as there's?"

She could feel his body relaxing, her words sneaking their way into his mind like they always did, and it brought a smile to her lips as she continued.

"Don't let them make you doubt yourself my little Harry-chan, don't give them a ledge to hold onto in her heart, or they will get in your head and twist your mind."

"…you're right…I need to kill them…I need to kill them before they corrupt me…"

"Of course I'm right, have I ever lied to you, would I ever lie to you? You're my precious little Harry-chan, and when Minaka is done getting all the information they have about you, we will kill them together and bury them in the same ditch as those things you used to live with…"

Even though she couldn't see his face because it was pressed forming into her body, Karasuba could feel the grin slowly starting to spread across her Ashikabi's face, and it sent a delightful shiver down her spin.

"Wizards…well I must say out of all things I had theorised, that was not among them…and you claim to have sent Harry to live with your sister for his own protection?"

Wiping the tears from her eyes, Lilly nodded her head as she stared at the odd man behind the overly large desk.

"Yes, after Voldemort failed to kill Harry and disappeared, his followers started trying to assassinate him. We needed to hide him in the last place anyone would think to look until they were all caught, or he was old enough to start learning magic at age eleven. There are still several out there even now, but with his birthday coming up soon we thought it was the right time. I knew Petunia hated magic, but I never thought she would such horrible things…he was supposed to be safer with them! There were Bloodwards set around the house to make sure nothing could hurt him!" "

Despite not wanting to, Takami couldn't help but see the logic in what the Potters had done, after all who could ever imagine the Dursleys were capable of doing such things. But that didn't mean she liked it, after all, even if there was a risk, they could have checked in on him. They had cut themselves off from Harry completely in fear of someone finding him through them, but that didn't mean they couldn't have arranged for someone else to look in on him, at least then they could have prevented this situation altogether.

"While it may not have been the smartest plan, I seems to have been the only one you could come up with on short notice, so I can't fault you for what you did…"

"So you will allow us to take Harry back to England?"

Letting out a condescending laugh, Minaka turned his attention one the oldest of the group, his glasses shining in such a way as to block his eyes from view.

"Of course not, setting aside the fact Harry-kun will try and kill you the next time you see him, he is part of the Sekirei plan now. I cannot allow such an important playing in the game of the gods just leave before it even starts, he will a vital role in the years to come."

This time it was James who spoke, his face set in a frown and his voice angry.

"But he is our son, you have no right-!"

"Was your son, in the both the eyes of the law, and I am sure anyone else who hears this story, you gave up any claim you had on the boy the moment to abandoned him on the doorstep of creatures like the Dursleys."

"There were Bloodwards set around the house! There should have been no way for him to have been hurt while inside it!"

She saw the smile on Minaka's face when the red headed witch said Bloodwards, which had been explained to them already, and knew it was the smile he got whenever he was about to make someone feel stupid for the fun of it.

"Ah yes, the Bloodwards…from what you told us, a Bloodward is powered by the shared blood running through at least two people living in the same house that are directly related, and is designed to prevent anyone not living there from being able to enter the house if they have bad intentions towards the ones inside. However, I loophole in this is the fact that if the people who live there have bad intentions to each other, the wards are useless to do anything about it. A large oversight on your part for sure."

Before they had time to respond to this statement, the group was interrupted by a beeping coming from Minaka's computer, which was followed by a window opening on the screen. The window was showing a security video, and on it was Karasuba and Harry, the latter of which had his Ninjato drawn, as they made their way to the office.

Her eyes widening, Takami sent a worried look at Minaka, who's only reaction was to cross his fingers in front of his mouth with a slightly annoyed expression on his face.

"Well, it would seem our conversation will need to be cut short, I had hope we would have more time before he snapped, but it would seem little Harry-kun is on his way right now to kill you…"

Ignoring the now clearly panicking people, Minaka stood from his desk and slowly turned and walked towards the balcony.

"But let it never be said I am not a man of my word, there is a ladder on the balcony leading to the roof, where I have already arranged a helicopter to take you to the airport. The information you have given me will be very helpful, and I really don't want blood on my nice white carpet, however this is a onetime thing and if you return to Japan I will not help you again. Now, I suggest you hurry, at their current speed they will arrive here in…4 minutes and 53 seconds…"

Though they did hesitate slightly, and Lilly look as if she wanted to say something, one glance down at the two little children holding onto her legs was enough for them all too quickly leave without another word.

Frowning slightly, Takami let out a tired sigh, crossing her arms over her chest as she looked at Minaka.

"They'll never make it, you know that…"

"Don't be such a worry wart, Takami-kun, like always I have an ingenious plan!"

This did not ease her fears in the slightest.

XXX

He was tired of waiting, tired of Minaka standing between him and what Karasuba assured him, was his right. So with his Ninjato drawn, grin on his face, Harry quickly made his way to the CEO's office with every intention of killing his 'family'.

He saw a few guards look like they were thinking of trying to stop him, but the moment he glanced in their direction they quickly moved out of the way, not wanting to be on the pointy end of his weapon and knowing they could do nothing to stop him. He could feel Karasuba walking behind him, feel her own excitement for what he was about to do, and it only made him grin wider.

When they finally reached the door he didn't pause, slamming them open with a flick of his wrist, only to stop and look around when all he saw were Takami and who he knew from pictures and videos was Minaka.

"Where are they!?"

To his credit, Minaka wasn't intimidated in the least, a small smirk on his face as he took a sip from a cup of tea in front of him, his eyes locked on Harry.

"They are on the roof, using the helicopter I arranged to take them to the airport, why don't you sit down so we can talk, Harry-kun? After all this is the first time we are meeting face to face…"

Ignoring the offered seat, Harry made to walk over to the balcony, only to hear a word that would change his life.

"Activate"

At that one word, Harry grabbed his head in pain as it was filled a high pitched shrieking, sending painful spasms throughout his entire body ad he fell to his knees, his Ninjato clattering to the ground at his side.

"What are you doing to him?!"

"Minaka stop!"

He had just enough awareness to recognise the voices of both Karasuba and Takami respectfully, but the sound was getting louder and with it the pain stronger.

"Deactivate"

With that word, the sound was gone, and Harry fell the rest of the way to the floor gasping as the pain finally released him. He realised that Karasuba had at some point grabbed hold of him, sitting on the floor with his head in her lap as he slowly became aware of his surroundings again.

"I just want you to know, I took no pleasure in doing that to you, but you gave me know choice…"

Turning to look at Minaka, who was still sat behind his desk sipping tea, Harry struggled to get his breathing back under control as the man continued talking.

"Your no don't wondering what just happened, and that is understandable, so I will explain. During one of your annual physicals, I arranged for one of the lap techs to inject you with Nano-bots, which have been hiding dormant in your body since. You see you are a powerful boy Harry, too powerful to not have a way to control you…with one word I can activate the Nano-bots and render you helpless. The effects of them being activated will only increase the longer they are active, and only I can stop them. in a way, you could think of this as a leash, insurance in case you ever got too much to handle…"

"Bastard!"

Harry made to get up and leap over the desk, only to stop when Minaka made an exaggerated move of opening his mouth, his eyes shining slightly at the power he had over the boy.

"Now, I'm not a monster, so I will only use this power over you when necessary, and you will be able to carry one living your life as you have so far. I will not even stop you if your family were to return, but I agreed to allow them to leave in return for information, and that information was very good, so for now you will forget about them."

His hands were shaking, his teeth grinding tightly, but Harry knew he could do nothing. Even as the sound of a helicopter taking off reached his ears, and all he could think about was chasing after it, he did not move an inch.

It was at that exact moment, during his first ever face to face meeting with the CEO of MBI, that Harry make a decision.

One day, no matter how long it would take, Harry was going to kill Manaka with his bare hands.

XXX

Hope you like it, sorry for those who wanted him to kill them, but this will not be his last meeting with his family. However, I have yet to decide if he will kill them or not, but even if he doesn't the only ones he will actually be able to have any kind of relationship with would be the twins, if that.

Let me know what you think.
