Chapter 2: Mujitsu no Sōshitsu

In less than a year, the news about the incident spread like wildfire within the news and social media, and Ryoma Hoshi underwent a trial for juvenile offenders, and though a lawyer was assigned to him, assuring to the boy that he will do all he can to clear his name, the lawyer was actually in league with the mafia gang that murdered the tennis enthusiast and instead of defending Ryoma, he made the interrogation look like he is intending to force a confession from the boy, and this not only confuses the younger boy, but also caused the trial to pin him down further, as the bullies that tormented Ryoma made false accusations, and with the evidences, which were rigged and planted, pointing out that made it appeared that the testimonies were credible, Ryoma now has almost no chance to prove his innocence, and thus the judge sentenced Ryoma at a juvenile facility for young offenders and will remain there until he is of legal age so he can be transferred to a regular jail.

Ryoma tearfully pleaded for his innocence, but the judge coldly rebuked him and said he do not belong to society because of his ACTIONS, and on top of that, the judge told Ryoma that he has no sense of gratitude, killing the tennis enthusiast for such selfish reason and now he will pay his dues from this point on.

"You are one ungrateful boy!"

"But…"

"You deserved to be put away!"

"No…you…"

"You're lucky you're too young to be given the death penalty!"

"I'm innocent!"

"You are guilty!"

"I'm not!"

As the judge walked away, the guards arrived and handcuffed the boy and is being dragged away, where the bullies grinned at him and made a mocking farewell gesture, and Ryoma realized that they were behind all this but is too late to do anything about it, and he was soon sent to the juvenile facility for youth offenders, and there he is placed there and it shows that the jailed offenders consists of violent and cruel delinquents, and they saw a newcomer being escorted here, and the jailed offenders are looking forward to give Ryoma an INITIATION.

"Hey…"

"Check it out…"

"A new target practice…"

"So young…"

"We're gonna have fun with this brat…"

"But he's a midget…"

"So what?"

"Tasty…"

-x-

At one of the political scion's house, the scene shifts inside the bedroom where the bullies are celebrating, pleased that they have ruined Ryoma's life and are expecting him to suffer a lot, though one of the bullies lamented that now they have no one to pick on though the other said they can look for a new one to pick on, and there are no shortages of it as the school they are attending have lots of targets to pick on, and there are plenty of them to choose.

"…so no problem!"

"Yeah…we can pick on anybody!"

"Really?"

"Yeah…the new one will be much more fun than the last one!"

"He's right…we're getting tired of that Ryoma brat…"

"I bet he's crying at jail…"

"I sure want to see that…"

"Well, let's celebrate in sending that brat to jail!"

The bullies cheered and raised their glasses to TOAST on their success and now they are planning to find a new target to choose and hoped that their new PROSPECT is as easy to pick on and expected thst their new target would ENTERTAIN them.

In the months that followed, you can see that Ryoma is suffering tremendously at the hands of the inmates there, as they took turns in beating and maiming the boy, as they somehow managed to smuggle in weapons and uses it to beat up Ryoma, and the guards there did little to prevent this, as some ignored the scene as they cared less about the plight seeing that the inmates would not listen to the wardens and just walked past the scene, turning a BLIND EYE.

The jailed offenders kept on beating Ryoma as the months passed, and by the age of 13, Ryoma was mentally scarred, as no one came to his defense, his parents permanently abandoned him as they were not present in the trial, and never once visited him, and the beating continued, and as a year came to a close, Ryoma was due to turn 14 years old, and his body bore deep bruises and scars, and the beating he received appeared to have affected his body, as he has not gained any height, and one day, the jailed offenders ambushed him and began beating him mercilessly, saying that his parents abandoned him and that with the tennis enthusiast dead, he will rot in hell and regretted taking Ryoma under his wing.

"Who's gonna save you now, shorty?"

"You're momma and poppa left you to rot!"

"No one's gonna save you now!"

"You're gonna rot here till you die!"

"Baby's gonna cry!"

"Crybaby!"

"Crybaby brat!"

"Ha-ha…come, start crying like a baby!"

As the taunting and beating continues, Ryoma, now aged 14, finally snapped as he grabbed one of the baseball bats and utilizes his tennis skills, and strike down the first tormentor with one tennis swing, killing him instantly, and the other offenders were taken aback at what they saw, and the offender who got killed was their leader, and this made them wary towards Ryoma, as they did not expect him to fight back with such intensity.

"Whoa…"

"What the heck?"

"He just killed him…"

"Is he a brat or something?"

"Whoa…look at him…"

"His eyes…"

"We better take him seriously…"

"Right…"

The remaining offenders are now starting to take Ryoma seriously as they began to gang up on him, but he fought back in such primal rage that he gravely injured 10 of his tormentors and attacked seven more, reducing his attackers to five, and the remaining offenders were terrified that they banged the jail bars calling the warden for help, as they are now fearing for their lives, not wanting to end up getting killed or comatose.

"Wait, kid…"

"Easy…"

"We're just fooling around…"

"Careful with that thing…"

"It's not a toy…"

"Let's talk, okay?"

"Want a candy?"

"Yeah, let's be friends…"

A warden passed by as he heard the commotion but ignored the jailed offenders' pleas as he rather see them dead than bailing them out, and just sat on his seat eating popcorn as Ryoma savagely beat up his tormentors, and the warden is enjoying the show, but then a superintendent showed up unexpectedly, as he is conducting a surprise inspection, and he is appalled by what he just saw and confronted the warden, who was taken by surprised at the superintendent's sudden arrival.

"Warden!"

"S-sir!"

"What are you doing?"

"Um…ah…you see…"

"Are you allowing this to happen?"

"Um…"

"Well?"

"I'll get to it!"

The warden was forced to do something to save face, and he went inside the cell and confronted Ryoma, but he was pinned down and is about to receive the DEATH BLOW, as Ryoma berated the warden for ignoring his pleas for help when the jailed offenders beat him up non-stop for two years while the warden just watched there doing nothing, and the warden was fearing for his life that he accidentally acknowledged his shortcoming and begged for forgiveness and pleaded for his life.

"You…!"

"Waaahhh!"

"I'll kill you!"

"I'm sorry!"

"You let this happen!"

"Mercy! Forgive me!"

"I'll kill you!"

"Help!"

The superintendent heard this, and noticed Ryoma, who is shirtless, seeing his upper body have deep bruises and his face and most of his upper body bloodied, and he approached the boy and tries to calm him down, assuring him he will investigate things and ensure that this incident will never happen again, as well as asking him to stand down and let the doctors treat him, but Ryoma pointed out that his suffering went on for the past two years, and not a single medic came to check on him, and the warden did nothing but watch the beating for his own entertainment, and now he told the superintendent to leave since he is just the same as everyone else in this facility, but the superintendent assured that he is not, and gives his word that he is willing to listen to his case, which seemingly swayed the disgruntled Ryoma, as if the words reached him.

"Please, kid…calm down…"

"…"

"I'll review your case…"

"…"

"I'll do what I can…you have my word…"

"…"

"Please believe me…"

"…"

The superintendent approached Ryoma and urged him to stand down and slowly took the weapon, and told him he will conduct an investigation and see what he can do, though Ryoma told him it is useless, as no one would be willing to take his case, as everyone see him as a convict with no redemption because he is sure that they will make false testimonies like what happened at the trial, as he believed that he was set up and the evidences are rigged, and he told the superintendent to leave, but he told Ryoma that he will do what he can to help get a retrial for Ryoma, which somewhat swayed the boy.

"Please, kid…calm down…"

"…"

"I'll review your case…"

"…"

"I'll do what I can…you have my word…"

"…"

"Please believe me…"

"…"

However, a high-ranking police official came and saw the scene, and approached the superintendent, asking for an explanation, and as the superintendent went to explain his side, the police official drew his gun and shoots the superintendent on the head, killing him, then kicked Ryoma on his gut before whacking him with the gun on the head, knocking him out. He then approached the remaining witness, the warden, and shoots him down, dead.

The police official then reloaded his gun and shoots down the remaining inmates until they are dead, before he placed the gun on Ryoma's hand, as the police official is wearing a rubber glove so that his fingerprints won't be on the gun, and uses Ryoma's fingerprint to incriminate the boy. It is then revealed that he is secretly in league with the mafia group who killed the tennis enthusiast and an uncle of one of the bullies who tormented Ryoma, and he now did this to prevent a retrial and to ensure that Ryoma remained incarcerated.

-x-

The frame-up further aggravated his case and he was sent to another facility where his life became more miserable, and this went on for two more years, and now aged 16, Ryoma has lost his innocence and is now a shell of his former self, as he is no longer the gentle boy, but a young teen who is bent on revenge, vowing to get out and make the police official, the mafia gang, and his bullies pay for what they did to him in the years before.
