No one's POV:

West side of Kyoto

"you! useless bastard" bellowed Gin Shidesu and he pulled his fist back and drove it hard and fast into his son's gut. Causing Osoro to grunt in pain, and bend over due to the sheer force of the punch his father levelled onto him.

"I must get that from you then old man!" Osoro snapped back in retaliation, only to enrage his father even further.

"You ungrateful little rat! I sired you! Raised you when the bitch abandoned you! And this is what I get back!" Bellowed his father as he threw Osoro to the floor, kicking him mercilessly.

"I don't blame mom for fuckin' off like she did! And as for raising me! What a joke! You through me to the wolves when I was six!" Osoro yelled in between pained grunts and gasps.

"You little bastard! Perhaps I haven't been clear about what I want from you, perhaps what I'm going to do next will clarify the message" growled Gin as he reached for a katana on the wall.

Quick as a flash, along with the familiar sound of fabric tearing, Osoro found himself on the floor, with both his arms and his abdomen bleed in profusely from this father's attack, looking up at the fearsome man, waiting for the next attack, waiting for the death blow. Osoro didn't know what to think any more, half of himself wanted to be dead and the other half wanted to live if only for the life he was only now reclaiming, for Wisteria.

There was a sudden whoosh as the katana rushed through the air, as his father went in for another attack, Osoro put his hands up hoping for some sort of protection only to hear another rush of air and a loud crashing sound at the other side of the room. Osoro looked up, only to see his father's crumpled form in the pile of splintered wood and torn paper that used to be a shoji door.

That was the moment Osoro made his decision, he needed to get out of the compound before his father really did kill him or the other way around, before he'd end up killing his father. Breathing heavily, he forced himself to his feet and staggered into the hall way aiming to get away before he collapsed from blood loss. However, that wasn't to be, as he stumbled around, he felt his legs get weaker and weaker, a few moments later as he began to pass out strong pair of arms reached out and caught him.

Michi, Osoro's personal man servant knew what had happened, and had come to patch him up as always, but this time the older man could see that his masters father had gone too far in his vile treatment of the boy, as he watched the boy stumble in to the hall way, he crept up behind the boy just as he was going to collapse and grabbed him, carrying him to one of the external store houses.

Half an hour later when he believed it to be quiet, Michi returned to the store house with a large hand cart that was normally used for supplies and placed the unconscious boy in it, covering him with a large tarpaulin, if only to conceal his young master.

Osoro's POV:

I woke up, feeling like shit, with the ground moving below me and something covering me. I opened my eyes to see a bright blue plastic tarp covering me, while I was in a cart of some kind of cart being pulled by someone. Suddenly the cart went over a particularly large rock, causing me to groan in pain, which led to the cart being stopped and the tarp being lifted off of me.

"ah, your awake young master" said the relieved voice of Michi.

"I can't stay at home any more Michi, I need to get out of there now" I said wincing in pain as I tried to shift into a more comfortable position.

"but where can you go? I mean there aren't many places we can go?" Michi asked, causing me to have an idea.

"We can go to my tutors, she might be able to help" I explained telling him the way to her home before I passed out again.

No One's POV:

In the north of Kyoto

Wisteria was cuddled up on one of her squishy chairs in the living room, quilt on her lap insulating her from the bitter cold while the recently fire gently grew in size and warmth. She smiled softly as she lifted a bowl of chikuzenni onto her lap along with a spoon and began to eat contentedly, it had been a full three months since she had been in the hospital and she was well on the road to recovery, she still had to make trips to the hospital to track her progress, now she only had to visit every three weeks instead of every two weeks, Wisteria thanked Snape for his potions and advice as well, if it weren't for him, she would still be on crutches struggling to get around for weeks.

Wisteria was also grateful to Mrs Najimi for her cooking and her visits to make sure that she wasn't killing herself with caffeine and take out grease, the very thought of that brought a small smile to Wisteria's face as she thought about the petit woman slaving over a hot stove and all for a stranger, it warmed Wisteria's heart at the fact that there were still people like that out there. Not long after she had finished her stew, Snape came in with her nutrients potions and a smile that said "I know something you don't".

"Thanks prof" said Wisteria as she downed the viles of potion and swallowed with a grimace.

"your welcome Potter" replied Snape a smirk evident in his voice.

"And thank Mrs Najimi for the chikuzenni" added Wisteria as she picked up the tv remote and got up to open the cabinet it was situated in.

"Oh, you don't need to thank her, in fact I should be thanking you for the recipe and you should be thanking me for cooking it" said Snape, causing Wisteria's head to snap up in shock.

"You've been in the kitchen... my kitchen" said Wisteria, her voice quivering with fear her mind flashing back to the last time.

"Don't worry everything has been left spotless and the house elves didn't have to do anything but inspected it any way" Snape tried to reassure Wisteria.

"the last time I had to get a new microwave and blender, and you got food poisoning from that chilli that was earmarked for Walter" replied Wisteria her temple muscles ticking noticeably.

"your appliances are safe and clean" Snape countered rolling his eyes as he spoke.

"they better be" said Wisteria, sitting back down and turning on the tv, however they were further disturbed by a loud pounding on the door. Sighing Wisteria stood up and went to get the door.

Wisteria opened the door to be met with a stranger on her stoop.

"Can I help you?" Asked Wisteria curiously.

"it's my young master, there's been a bit of trouble, if you wouldn't mind stepping out and helping me" he said as he lifted the tarpaulin off of a cart to reveal Osoro.

"Oh my..." Muttered Wisteria as she took in all of her friend's wounds.

"Please help him, we can't go anywhere else" said the man.

With this statement Wisteria said nothing more and went inside yelling for Snape to come and help her, and with relitive ease, between the three of them they managed to get Osoro upstairs into Wisteria's bedroom, stripped to his boxers.

"Now, prof, there's a first aid kit in the bathroom cupboard and you, there's another first aid kit in the kitchen, can you fetch them?" Asked Wisteria pointing to Snape and the man, as she went to a linin closet grabbing a pair of fabric shears on the way. An hour later Osoro was bandaged up but sadly he was still unconscious and in a bad state.

"It's no good, he needs a doctor" said Wisteria, rubbing her eyes tired from all of wrapping.

"we can't take him to a hospital, there'll be all sorts of reports" said the man.

"but I can't do anything other than basic first aid, he needs a professional to help him!" Said Wisteria sternly.

"well I know of a doctor that'll help him but he won't come cheap" said the man.

"Fine get him here, but if I catch him eyeing up my things, he's out the door" said Wisteria, causing the man to disappear.

Twenty minutes later the man returned with a rather weedy looking man in a lab coat, Wisteria was not impressed with the man.

"Are you sure this man is qualified?" Asked Wisteria sceptically.

"He gambled heavily and the yakuza bought out his debt, but now he's stuck toeing their line, he's a weak man but a good doctor" the man replied, causing Wisteria to sigh.

"Upstairs to the left door at the end of the hallway" she said pointing up the stairs.

The man escorted the doctor upstairs while Wisteria followed them up. Keeping a sharp eye on everything they did and making sure nothing went missing in the process. Once they were at the room the doctor went in followed by Wisteria who sat with her back to her vanity, watching the doctor like a hawk.

The doctor was nervous, as he looked around the room, the girl's bedroom was full of seemingly valuable items, a tiffany floor lamp with a wisteria flowers on the shade and a tiffany style chandelier in the shape of brightly coloured birds on branches, a table lamp in the form of a bronze casting of a mermaid sitting on a rock with a disc of frosted glass concealing the bulb and the bed, it was a large four poster bed with hand carved seahorses acting as feet at the base and snakes coiled up the posts along with other carvings of oak leaves, achornes and ivy , there were other factors including the girls jewellery box that caught his attention. However, the one thing that took the most of his attention was the near naked boy on the bed, the doctor was shocked at the state of the boy, it looked like that there wasn't a single inch of flesh that wasn't bandaged up.

Over the next few hours the doctor worked under Wisteria's hawk like gaze, knowing that it wasn't going to be easy to save the boy's life and under constant watch the doctor knew that messing up wasn't an option. It was late when the doctor finished working on Osoro and headed out with Wisteria prowling out behind him, only to overtake him in the hallway.

"This way" said Wisteria sternly as she walked to the study, with the doctor hot on her tail.

Once in the study, the doctor was unnerved at the study's imposing nature as he walked into the long slightly gothic room.

Wisteria's POV:

While I wasn't comfortable with the man in my study it meant that I had the advantage in this room, as I could see that he was nervous being in here.

"Sit" I commanded, causing the man to run to the seat in front of my desk and sit in it, quivering as he watched me walk to the liqueur cabinet and pull out a bottle of whiskey along with two tumblers.

"While I don't trust you one bit, I can see you've done a good job taking care of my friend" I began as I poured the whiskey and sat in the chair opposite him.

"I know you don't trust me, but I'm an honest man, but I'm also weak" he told me as he took a swig from his glass, his hand shaking in the process.

"and not cheap, but you've earned it" I told him as I got out of my chair and walked towards the phoenix statue by the window, I shifted some of the metal feathers to reveal a key hole and I unlocked it to reveal a safe, I pulled out some wads of cash and threw them on to the desk.

"This should be sufficient for now, but I'm not happy with the way you eyed up my bedroom" I told him in a calm neutral voice.

"I do apologise, but I was surprised to see someone so young filling their home with such beautiful antiques, I thought kids these days where only interested in their smart phones and video games" said the doctor almost jumping out of his skin at the amount money I had just thrown to him. However, he gladly pocketed the cash.

"People in this day and age don't know how to make beautiful things any more, I was taught how to appreciate beauty and antiquity and I like to think that I've got taste" I replied dryly. We continued to chat for a little while until I decided to interrupt.

"listen doc, I don't mean to be rude to you but it's been a trying evening, and I've got things to clean up and a patient to look after, and I'm sure that you've got a family to return to as well" I told the man as we finished our glasses of whiskey and got up to leave the study.

"I'm sad to say that I don't have a family to go home to any more, my gambling habit saw to that" the doctor said sadly as we walked down the stairs.

" I'm sorry about that" I said grimacing internally.

"It's alright, it's my fault after all, I shouldn't have started, if I knew what I know now perhaps it could have been avoided" said the doctor opening the door and leaving the house quietly.

After the door closed I sighed and went back upstairs to check on Osoro and to sort out another couple of rooms for myself and Osoro's companion. Once I arrived I saw the older man sat in my bedside seat watching Osoro like a worried mother hen.

"If you'd like I can take over while you rest uh..." I began only to realise that I never got his name.

"Michi, and you're the young masters tutor" Michi replied holding out his hand for me to shake.

"My name's Wisteria, anyway, why don't I take over while you get some rest and something to eat, there's chikuzenni on the stove if you want some" I told Michi who looked exhausted.

Michi hesitated for a moment but eventually went downstairs to have a rest and some food while I was left with Osoro, it shattered me to see him like this, all battered and broken, it made me want to kill whoever did this to him.

It reminded me of how the Dursley's treated me, it reminded me of when Petunia went after me with the carving knife, I was lucky then, if it weren't for my magic, I wouldn't be here now, only for me to see the self-propitiating cycle happening to another person in my life, this time I won't just stand by and let my friend suffer because others are too scared to step in.

Time skip the next morning

No One's POV:

The rest of the night had been stressful for everyone in the house, with Wisteria, Snape and Michi taking turns in watching Osoro, however he still had yet to wake up, causing everyone in the house to worry even more, leading to Wisteria to skip school to look after him.

It was nearly afternoon when Osoro did finally wake up, unfortunately for him he was confused and dazed especially when Wisteria came into the room. It took a few minutes for Osoro to remember what happened, that he was brought there after his father had attacked him again. However, the most embarrassing thing was the fact that he was in nothing but his boxers wrapped in bandages, kind of like a modern mummy.

"Ahh, you're awake" Said Wisteria in relief, glad that her friend was back in the land of the living.

"Yeah, thanks to you and Michi" replied Osoro in a gruff voice, showing that he despreately needed a drink, which Wisteria gladly provided for him.

"Okay now that you're awake, I bet you're hungry, I've got soup on the stove if you want it" said Wisteria looking at Osoro in sadness and sympathy.

It was then Osoro gave Wisteria a weak smile with watery eyes as he nodded his head stiffly, biting his lip to hide a pained whimper, noticing his expression, Wisteria truly felt sorry for the boy, quietly walking out of the room, Wisteria went downstairs into the kitchen grabbing a bowl and spoon along with a ladle whilst heading over to the stove, where a large pot of pea, mint and spring onion soup was simmering happily.

Smiling softly Wisteria set the bowl and spoon on the counter before taking the ladle and scooping some of the soup into the bowl adding a swirl of cream while she was at it as well, with the soup poured she placed the bowl and spoon on to a tray and carried it up to Osoro who was now propped up in a sitting position looking a lot more comfortable than he was when he first woke up. It didn't take long for Wisteria to spoon feed him, mainly because his arms where still weak from his injuries, by the end of the meal, Osoro was as pink as cherry blossom by the end of being spoon fed his soup, which he found tasty and comforting.

" Okay do you feel a bit better now?" Asked Wisteria warmly as she placed the tray on the vanity.

"A lot better than when I first got here" was his gravely reply as he looked away ashamed at his own weakness.

"Okay then, you should rest up then, when you're ready to talk let me or Michi know, okay" said Wisteria in a semi stern yet motherly tone, as she picked up the tray once again and proceeded to leave the room, carrying the tray, downstairs, to the kitchen.
