Chapter Eight: Revelations and new destinations

FATE agency building April twenty third 1927 8:16 AM; dinning hall

All the staff members of the FATE agency are having breakfast, Rin is sited besides Benji. Kenichi as usual isn't among them. There is a light chatter around the table concerning daily events and a bit of the job in the cinema house. Benji, Alexia, Sakura and Caster don't mention the long conversation of the previous day related to Benji's job investigating the Imperial Theater.

FATE agency building April twenty third 1927 10:16 AM; Shooting range

After the breakfast Benji takes Archer to the shooting range. "Archer I won a pistol and I want your opinion on it." Benji says to the white haired man. He hands the pistol to Archer. He let's out an impressed whistle. "Impressive to say the least." Archer comments. Benji tells him everything that Sumire said about the gun.

"Well to begin I think that you should not use it as your main piece." Archer says to him. "If mass production of this pistol was canceled because the potential threat to security it might be dangerous for you use it openly." Benji nods understanding he thought similar to that too.

"But this kind of firepower is too precious to be left unused. In a shoot out it might make the difference in getting out alive or dead." Archer continues. "Thirty rounds of .45 ACP fired twice faster than a Tommy is for sure a hell of an advantage. Besides it is quicker to reload than a Tommy with a drum." Archer looks at the pistol and fires a little after his words.

"And this pistol has a good accuracy. It is bellow a rifle like a Winchester or another long distance rifle. But you won't be firing the head of an enemy at five hundred meters. It might be tricky fully mastering the full auto but it will be worth." Archer comments. "So should I carry it?" Benji asks.

"Exactly. Carry as a secondary pistol." Archer answers. "It is too big to hide up your sleeve like you do to your knifes. Besides you have knifes there. Carry it on the small of your back with the burst fire one on your side holster." Benji nods understanding. Benji chats a bit with Archer before leaving. Benji meets Saber on the garage and they get in a car and then to the imperial theater.

Imperial Theater 11:34 AM; entry

After a small series of interviews that resulted in nothing at all Benji and Alexia are sited in one of the benches in front of the gift shop. Tsubaki gives to them a cup of tea each. She sits behind the counter while the duo drinks the tea. 'There is something wrong on this place. Everyone closes up when I ask about their happiness. But Iris was just the opposite. She seemed really happy. I can't understand. She is kept away from whatever is happening here?' Benji thinks looking at his tea cup. 'What is this?' he thinks seeing something like a button but a bit bigger on his tea cup.

He drinks the tea carefully and hides the mysterious object on his mouth. He picks a handkerchief and dabs his lips placing the object there with out anyone noticing. He puts it on his pocket and decides to exam it later. He returns the cup to Tsubaki and leaves with Alexia. On his way out he sees Reni looking at him leaving. Benji nods to her and she moves way. He knows that was Reni that placed the item there.

FATE agency 11:52 AM; audio lab and picture developing lab

Alexia leaves Benji on the lab and leaves to eat. Sakura joins Benji on the room. Benji carefully removes a layer of wax and paper from a small recording unit that he gave to Reni. 'Smart girl. She found a good way to slip it back to me and protect it from the tea.' He thinks.

"Your deal with the Kanzaki industries is good. This kind of recorder is very useful." Sakura comments while carefully placing the device on a proper machine to read the audio on it. It will take few minutes before they can hear it. 'Kanzaki espionage sector, micro audio recorder; It is a self sufficient audio device with a high quality microphone build in the structure and can be turned on and off by the will of the person that holds it. It is a bug that needs to be retrieved to hear the conversation recorded. I mostly used it to record a conversation between myself and a source of information. It is able to record half an hour of conversation.' Benji thinks looking at the small machine.

'It is also good in situations like this where it is given to someone that can't speak freely with you because it own reasons but can record a message and send it back to you. Sadly it is one way only. And to listen to the message you need the main machine to play the message. One of the firsts bugs that Kanzaki created.'

"It is ready to play." Sakura says when the machine beeps notifying her that it is over. "Sakura I don't know the contents of the tape. And I want to keep the source secret mind in stepping outside?" Benji asks in a gentle tone. Sakura is a sweet girl and very helpful. But whatever is on that tape isn't for her ears. She nods with a smile understanding. She knows that on that line of work sources are everything and you are who you know. She respects Benji's need to keep his informant in secret. She steps outside and waits for him to call her.

Benji puts on the headphone and turns on the machine to play the message. Reni's voice reaches his ears. "I am sorry that I can't speak with you freely or tell you what is truly happening here. It is too painful for me and everyone else to think about it…" –Click- Benji pauses the machine. 'She is suffering…I can feel it on her voice…' -Click- "We never mention this to anyone not even between ourselves… we try pretending that it doesn't happened, that there isn't anything wrong here. But we all know that things are very wrong here. On the beginning each of us thought that we were the only one suffering that…but we were wrong…all of us are suffering…" -Click-

Benji paused it once again. 'She was crying…sobbing when recording this. It was that painful? Am I doing the right thing?' –Click- "Deep down we knew that it was the reason that Sumire had retired. She was the brave one of all us that finally gathered the courage to give up and walk away. But none of us have a place to go…we only have the theater…-riiinnng- the bell…it will begin again…it will be hard do this again…specially because I know that you will be hearing it all…but I have to at least try to do it so you can at least have an idea of what is happening…"

Benji swallows hard hearing the sound of fabric ruffling and the recorder being hid, by the sound near of her neck since he can hear her breathing. 'Steps and a door open. More steps, another door, voices…male voices…two…three…five! Clothes ripping?! God it can't be!' Benji shouts on his mind. But it is. He can clearly hear all the sounds as the unknown males ravish Reni's body. The pain filled grunts of the young German that her filled throat filters to the recorder still hidden by her neck. Reni's ragged breathing. The men's grunts of pleasure as they seek they own sick pleasure.

Benji hears it all. Twenty minutes of it, at least twenty five men passed by Reni on the time of the record that she somehow how turned off. When it begins again her painful sobs mixed with the sounds of her throwing up all that they stuffed down her throat fills Benji's ears. Someone says something to Reni but it is too distant to Benji hear that new voice. Once again a short silence followed by another recording. "We all need help…but some of us won't help because fear…fear of that being exposed…fear of how everyone will treat us…some of us will help…some won't do anything…but some might be hostile to protect that secret…be careful…" now the record comes to a end as the tape ends.

Benji is shocked beyond words. He removes the recorder from the machine and leaves the room. He dismisses Sakura and moves to his office where he locks the door to keep Rin out. He can't accept what he had heard. Reni was raped inside the theater and that happens in a very regular basis and with everyone according her words.

'That would explain why everyone reacted like that. Sumire said that it was forced… someone inside the theater is forcing them to do that. But who and why?' Benji looks at the bromide album that Rin owns that is over his desk. He flips thorough the pages beginning from the first page from when the hanagumi were created.

Benji stops looking at a Sumire bromide. He looks at the Kanzaki heiress eyes. He opens his desk drawers and picks one of the most recent bromides. And he can see the difference on her eyes. When it began her eyes didn't had a hint of fear and despair. But on the last bromide that she took before her retirement play her eyes had it. Now knowing what to look for Benji flipped thorough the pages of the album.

After one hour Benji found an approximated time that the events began. It began after defeat of the Kokkikai. Benji knows that things will be serious. He puts the album away and picks a bandolier and puts inside it more ammo for his pistol and an extra set of clothes and puts it on his back.

He leaves his office nearly crashing on Rin. He runs on the hall ignoring her calls and moves to the garage. In there a woman with long purple hair, wearing a jumpsuit is polishing a motorcycle. "Sorry Rider but I need this!" Benji shouts jumping on the bike, turning it on and speeding away. "BENJI GET BACK HERE WITH MY BIKE!!!" She shouts running to the entrance of the garage just to see him skillfully dodging the traffic as he moves to a location unknown to her.

"I should have not taught him how to drive a bike." She mutters adjusting her glasses and walking to the garage with a small frown. But she knows that things was really serious to him just grab her bike and go away with out asking her if he could get it.

Yokohama Kanzaki family mansion 1:45 PM; entrance gate

Benji is in front of the large gate of the mansion. Sumire can see him by the binoculars. "Akiko let him in. He found it." Sumire says after seeing the look on his face. "I obey but strongly advice against it." She replies. The gates opens and Benji drives until reach the steeps in front of the mansion. He stops the bike there and turns it off and enters on the mansion.

Akiko leads Benji to Sumire's study. Sumire can see the anger on his face. "Why you didn't tell anyone about that?" Benji asks to her, his voice clearly showing to her that he was holding back his anger. "Because hurts to remember about it. We were forced to that. Threatened to do it and keep in silence." Sumire replies trying to stay calm. It was a very painful subject.

Benji calms a little seeing the tears beginning to rise on her eyes. "I can't mention what happened because I want to forget that." Sumire adds. "And let the others being raped day in and day out? Letting a new girl being forced to that too?" Benji asks icily. "I am trying to help you don't I?" Sumire asks back to him. Akiko is tense, she can tell that Benji is very angry and armed.

"Why we don't take a walk?" Sumire asks to him. "Leave your bag with Akiko and we take a walk. You walk and push my chair." Benji nods sensing a subtle innuendo on her request. Benji gives the bag to Akiko and take Sumire away. "She is being too reckless." Akiko mutters placing the bag over Sumire's desk.

Benji is pushing Sumire on the large backyard of the mansion. "Why none of you went against that?" Benji asks when they are far from the mansion. "All of you fought demons it would be easy fend off those people." Sumire nods agreeing. "What we know is that by doing that we were preserving the theater and the defense force." Sumire replies. "Thought we don't know if is truth or not. But the fear of losing our home made us do it. We never did it together. It is one of us in a separated room far from the other."

Sumire takes a deep breath. "Why you didn't tell to the police or anyone?" Benji asks. "It would ruin our reputation, honor and no one would believe, and either if they did the people that rape us is too important, they control the police, the government and many more things. The police wouldn't arrest them." Sumire answers sadly. "If was possible I would have done it."

Benji nods understanding. If the people was rich enough that could afford to finance the theater and the defense force by paying to use the hanagumi bodies they had to be rich and important.

"The scandal would destroy their reputation as well ours." Sumire says. "Sakura is from an old samurai family and if people find that she was forced to sell herself it would destroy her family honor and name. My family is famous and powerful but a scandal like that would shake the credibility of the company. Kanna only has her name and family dojo. The scandal would ruin any chances that she would have to rebuild her dojo. Orihime family would throw her away because of it and god knows what else they would do to her. Iris's family could do even worse. And Maria and Reni don't have anything other than the theater and their names. Kohran's reputation as a scientist would be damaged if people found about that."

Benji nods understanding. He knew that it would damage everyone if the truth came to light. But they were all begging to that to stop. And they could be blackmailed to keep the secret down. Benji has no doubt that one of the reasons that they still do it is that someone is using the 'keeping the secret card'.

"You have to understand that I can't say who was doing that to us and who is behind everything." Sumire says in a serious tone. "Just by telling you what I have already told you I am in danger. Because that person will do anything on his powers to keep those secrets a secret."

"Yeah I can tell it already." Benji says tensing up as ninja clad figures come out from behind the trees of the small wood of the yard that they were passing thru. They are armed with short swords. "Miss Kanzaki you might want to close your eyes and cover yours ears." Benji says pulling both of his pistols.

Sumire just covers her ears and watch as Benji shoots at the ninjas while they are away. The burst fire pistol is on his left hand and the RFP on his right. Sumire is impressed with his control. Ninety percent of the shots hit the targets. Not a bad mark for dualing and using a pistol that fires three times every time that you pull the trigger.

Benji's ammo runs out and he drops the pistols and uses the knifes on his arms.

Benji blocks a slash with his knife and gives a strong vertical cut on the ninja cutting him from the groin to the jaw. Benji moves to another ninja and keeps fighting until all of them are gone.

The shots make Akiko Sumire's maid/bodyguard run to the yard. She founds Benji breathing fast and deeply, holding his two bloody knifes in his hands. The area is covered with blood but there isn't a single drop of blood in Benji's clothes. He cleans his knifes and puts them away and picks up his pistols.

"Impressive." Sumire commented. "You for sure are a good bodyguard." Akiko feels a pang of jealousy but he did protected Sumire. They move back to the mansion while other people clean up the mess. They are back in Sumire's study. "As you can see that person might be already trying to get rid of me." Sumire says to Benji.

"Then why you don't tell me more so I can work faster?" Benji asks. "Because that was more like a warning than a threat. If they were serious they wouldn't be only armed with swords." Sumire replies. "I can't tell you who is behind this because I am not sure about who is truly behind this. It would be better if you found that by yourself."

Benji sighs with the woman stubbornness. "It will be better if you increase the protection around the house." Benji warns. "We are doing that. We just finished installing new defenses on the perimeter. As soon we get rid of the corpses this place will be secured." Sumire replies. "If you don't mind I will stay until is over." He says Sumire nods and motion to him sit down.

Yokohama Kanzaki family mansion 3:04 PM; entrance gate

Benji faces the gate of the mansion. Now locked shut, Benji was informed of the new defenses. 'Electric fences, automatic weapons with motion sensors and guard dogs. It is kind of too much of a defense system. I hope that it works.' He thinks starting his bike, he will return to the agency to report his finds, the chief have to know what is happening on the theater.

FATE agency 3:52 PM; garage

Benji parks the bike on the proper spot. He moves to his office where he drops the bandolier, and then he moves to Kenichi's office. Saber tags along when he calls her to inform that he was going to report.

After getting the permission to enter Benji and Alexia enter on the office. Benji reports everything to Kenichi even the attack on the Kanzaki mansion. Kenichi doesn't express anything while hearing Benji's report about the rapes and forced prostitution. Benji asks what will be done and Kenichi replies that will consider and dismiss them.

Outside the office Alexia also doesn't seem affected with the discovery that the hanagumi was being raped. Benji sighs with the lack of worry of them. He leaves to his office to think about what to do.

FATE agency building April twenty fourth 1927 10:26 AM; Meeting room

Kenichi have gathered all the Servants on the meeting room. They are all standing beside the other with Kenichi facing them. "As you all know I ordered to Stabber to investigate the imperial theater. They had issued Rin to join the defense force. Because certain rumors I ordered him to go and investigate them. He discovered that the rumors are truth and she won't join them. That is all." He says to them in a serious but emotionless tone.

"WHAT?!" Benji shouts. "What about the hanagumi?! You will allow them to be raped everyday with out doing anything?!" "That is right. You was acting under my orders to investigate if was a safe environment to Rin live in. And since it isn't she won't go. Case closed." Kenichi replies.

Benji hairs fluffs up and Archer and Lancer hold Benji by his arms, preventing Benji from charging at Kenichi. Benji shouts curses at the older man that walks away. Caster makes him sleep. Half an hour later Benji wakes on the infirmary. Caster calms him a little and holds him there until she believes that he is calmer.

Benji moves the Kenichi's office, after getting the permission to enter Benji gets inside. "You really won't do a thing to help those girls?" Benji asks in a serious tone to Kenichi. "Yes. I won't help them. We are bodyguards not police officers." Kenichi replies. "You are not going to do anything that is final."

Benji sighs. "Fine then." He says. Kenichi smiles content that he let it go. "I quit then." Benji says leaving the office. Kenichi sighs. "Hardheaded fool." He mutters seeing Benji walking away from his office lobby. Benji moves to his office and begins to pack his belongings. In few minutes the word of Benji's resignation spreaded out as a wild fire on the agency.

Rin was voicing her displeasure very loudly while Benji places his belongings in a large backpack. Benji lets her vent out but keeps working. Rin is crying seeing that her words won't change Benji's mind. "Benji why you are leaving?" she asks in a sad tone holding his hands to stop him from packing.

"Because my path is now different from the path of your father." Benji replies in a serious tone. "I don't like of the idea of leaving but I have to." Rin squeezes his hands. "Don't go please…" she whispers. "I don't want you to leave…" Benji lightly kisses her forehead. "Not everything in life goes as we want to." He whispers removing his hands from hers carefully. Rin cries harder while he finishes packing. She just watches unable to do anything to stop him.

FATE agency building April twenty fourth 1927 10:47 AM; Benji's room

Benji is now picking on his apartment his belongings and placing in another backpack. It doesn't take too long since most of his belongings are small objects, picture frames, mementos, books and clothes. In one hour everything is stored and ready to be taken away. 'I am going to miss this place. I lived here for a very long time.' He thinks looking at his apartment, now deprived of everything other than the furniture. "You are really going to leave?" Archer asks by the door. "Someone has to help those girls." Benji replies looking to Archer. "I can't let them suffer if I can do anything to help."

Archer chuckles. "Well good luck my friend. You will need it. I am sure that you know that the reason that the chief said no to help those girls is that they are part of the government and we have no powers against them." Archer says. "You will be on your own. But here between the two of us everyone here will be giving you a hand if you need. But that under the sheets, after all we are friends."

Benji nods with a smile. Archer smiles back, none of them would let Benji go thorough that alone. If they could lend a hand they will lend a hand. "I will keep your stuff until you get a place to crash. Until then travel light." Archer says. "Thanks." Benji replies while Archer picks his bags. "I already have an idea of where to stay. But hold those for me for a little while." Benji says to Archer. He nods and moves to his own room.

Benji leaves the building and moves to a payphone. He dials a number. "Operator?" Benji says when the line connects. "I want to make a call to Yokohama, to the Kanzaki residence. Tell them that is Benji Himura and is related to Miss Kanzaki proposal."

After twenty seconds of silence Sumire's voice breaks the silence. "So what you decided?" she asks to him in an expecting tone. "I hope that you really meant in hiring me, because I just quitted my job because they didn't wanted to help them." He answers in a mix of serious and teasing tone. "I am serious Mister Himura; Dead serious. You are hired. Just come here and we will make things official." She replies. Benji smiles at her words. Even facing the government and all it's power he will try to set free those girls, even if costs his life.
