Chapter 9: Ryoga Never Back's Down
Ryouga hopped rooftop to rooftop, drawing closer and closer to the Lake house. He looked at the time. 23:34, "Now I wait for the moon to be in its highest position." Ryouga said getting his weapons ready.
Inside the Lake house
Mercenaries were all over the place, and in the main room, a teen was crying, holding his son as their captor watched over them. "What was the reason?" Thomas asked. Yuma looked up at him. "For what? I have no reason, for anything. What's you reason for killing my boyfriend!? Huh? Why did you kill the only person I have that makes me happy!?" Yuma asked. "Why did you go with him!? I could've given you what he had and more, thousand fold!" Thomas retaliated. "So you killed him out of jealousy. I went with him because when he approached me, he really showed his true colors the right way. He asked me out after apologizing for his wrongs and making them right. That's why I went with him." Yuma explained.
Thomas sighed. "But you, you kidnapped, tortured, raped, and got me pregnant!?" Yuma said hysterically. "Yuma, I know what I did was wrong and that I screwed shit up. But I'm not asking you to be with me. I just want to see my son. You were not allowing that and I did even more wrong actions. I just want to be able to see my son. I don't want to influence him or anything; I just want to make sure I can see how the heir to my part of the family money grows up." Thomas said sadly. Seeing him this way made Yuma think. "I will allow you to see my baby, if- and only if, you get yourself some help with your problems. Only by that condition will I allow you to visit." Yuma said.
"Alright. First off, I apologize for all I did. All the scarring I did are sins that will not be erased. But I do want you to know I am truly sorry." Thomas said. "I forgive you. But Ryou is still dead…" Yuma said sadly. "No, he's alive." Thomas said. Yuma was confused. "How do you know?" Yuma asked. "He's been on the streets for how long, I'm pretty sure he'd be coming straight here." Thomas explained. And then, they heard gunshots and people yelling. "And now he's got my mercenaries." Thomas sighed. Someone walked up to the door and kicked it open. "You fucking thought that you can fuck with my family?" Ryouga shouted as he held up his pistol. "Ryou! Calm down, nothing happened we just had a talk." Yuma said, trying to calm Ryouga down.
"Oh really, and what was the conversation about?" Ryouga asked rudely. "He wanted to see Beno, that's all." Yuma said, rocking Beno back to sleep. "You tried to kill me, Akari, Ms. Haru, and possibly Yuma, just to see Leon?" Ryouga asked Thomas skeptically. "Is it wrong that I want to see my son?" Thomas asked back. "It is if the father is a fucktarded sociopath willing to kill anything in his fucking path!" Ryouga shouted. "Ryou! Stop that, you're gonna wake up Bunnito. Thomas is willing to get help just to see his son. Isn't that at least a start? Are you even going to try to give him a chance?" Yuma scolded. "Yuma, tell Ryouga to remove this gun from my head." Thomas said calmly. "Ryou!" Yuma yelled.
"You are so lucky my boyfriend is here to save you. For their sake, I'll give you one chance; but if a speck of dust from you steps out of line, I will make it my personal obligation to kill you right on the spot." Ryouga warned viciously. "Alright," Thomas said. Ryouga dropped the gun. "Good, now I can drop the hostile façade and get back to being a father figure." Ryouga sighed out. "You were acting?" Yuma asked skeptically. "No, I will kill him; I just put up the hostile act to make things feel right. But I believe I don't have a problem with you; or do I?" Ryouga asked. "No problem at all." Thomas replied. "Alright then, let's go Yuma, Leon should be sleeping in his cradle not out here in an abandoned shithole like this." Ryouga said. Yuma sighed, "Ok." Yuma said, holding Beno tighter as he was sleeping. And off they went walking in the night.
A.N.:
Kirua: One more chapter. I'll leave you in suspens.
Yami: They got two extra chapters. Make the wait longer.
Kirua: You know a meeting is in place if that's to happen.
Yami: Ughhh.
