Chapter 4: Realization and Dread
A sharp knock brought Mamoru to his senses. He opened the door and Igawa stood there.
"What's the emergency then?" He asked. Mamoru lead the way upstairs. He turned to look at Igawa.
"Haruka was…hurt. She won't go to the hospital because she's afraid they'll take her away when they discover that I'm not her family…"
Igawa looked perplexed. "Hurt? How? You barely let the girl out of your sight." Igawa went silent seeing the look on Mamorus face. It was guilt, remorse, regret. Things Igawa had never seen on the blind warriors face before. "Allright. What do you need from me then?"
Mamoru looked uncomfortable. "She needs someone to determine the extent of her injuries, and fix her up as best as possible…none of the women are available."
"And you couldn't do this because?" Igawa asked.
Mamoru sighed. "Because I'm blind one…and two…she's..very unstable. I'm not cut out for this kind of thing… just help her please."
Igawa blinked, taken aback. Another first for him, hearing a sincere "please" from the man. He nodded and walked over to the bathroom, knocking softly on the door.
"Haruka, I'm coming in ok?" He heard no answer other than the sound of a shower being turned off. He hadn't noticed it was on before. He waited a moment before opening the door.
It took him a moment to collect himself. Harukas arms were covered in bruises, as were her legs. Her middle was hidden by a towel. Her skin in some places seemed to have been rubbed raw. He cautiously walked into the room, closing the door. Haruka avoided his eyes.
"Haruka…." He kneeled in front of her.
She looked down. "I can't get it to go away…" She mumbled.
"Get what to go away?" Igawa asked quietly.
Tears welled up in her eyes. "I can still feel him.." Her voice trembled and Igawa's eyes widened as he realized what had really happened. He clenched his fists, slowly relaxing.
"Haruka…." Igawa trailed off, not sure what to say. He gently pulled the girl forward, holding her as she cried. He'd never seen the girl fall apart like this, she always acted so strong, so mature. It was easy to forget she was only a 13 year old girl.
"Shh, it's ok Haruka, it'll be ok." He said softly. After some time her trembling stopped, and he pulled back to look her in the eyes. She tried to look away, and he pulled her face back.
"D..does he hate me now?" She asked forlornly. Igawa blinked in confusion.
"Who?" He asked.
Haruka hesitated before answering. "M-Mamoru…" Igawa looked at her shocked.
"Oh Haruka, of course he doesn't hate you. He's worried about you, he's scared." Igawa said gently. Haruka looked up tentatively.
"Mamoru doesn't get scared…" She mumbled. Igawa smiled slightly.
"He was scared, scared for you. That's why he called me over." He paused for a moment, then reluctantly asked. "I need to make sure you weren't internally damaged…can you tell me where it hurts?"
Haruka looked down in shame, and Igawa spoke softly. "There is nothing to be ashamed of. This is not your fault. You can talk to me ok?" Haruka nodded.
"I…think I'm ok…" She took a trembling breath. "It hurts here, and hurts to sit down…." She pointed to her abdomen.
"Ok, I have to ask you some questions that may be uncomfortable to answer. Do you want to wait a bit, or do it now? Either way…you have to be completely honest." He looked at her as she debated internally.
"You can ask now.." She said. He nodded.
Igawa took a deep breath. "Did he pull out of you, or did you feel him cum inside of you." The question made her flinch. He felt bad for asking, but it was important to know. Haruka fidgeted looking down.
"Inside…" She said. Igawa had to keep himself from getting angry. What kind of person did this to a little girl? He calmed himself with some difficulty.
He finished his questions soon, then led Haruka to her room so she could get dressed. He walked to Mamorus room slowly.
Still they arent mine
sorry the chapters are so short, but they just seem to cut off well at these points, you know?
Igawa, the unfortunate computer nerd is much less prone to explosive anger than Mamoru. Mamoru couldnt handle personally examining Haruka because he's still angry and doesnt know how to comfort a kid, especially one thats just been hurt. He kills people that commit crimes, hes not used to comforting the survivors.
