Author's Note: I apologize in advance for this chapter. I wanted to experience a roller coaster of emotions. I want you to experience the adrenaline of emotions. Some of things need to be done to progress on Aki and Yusei's relationship too. I hope everyone still enjoys the chapter. More importantly I hope everyone understands. There's a lot of action in this chapter...and what will happen to our beloved couple? What lengths would Yusei go to save Aki? Please read/review.
Also June 26 official marks in a year since I published this story! Yipee!
Aki slowly opened her eyes as she could hear the sound of splashing when she moved her arms. She had looked down to discover that she was naked under the water, she quickly covered herself with her arms. It scared her because she didn't even know why she was in large bathtub. Aki woke up to her clothes being completely stripped off of her as she was resting in bubbly water. Her head hurt as she tried to move as she reached out to rub the back of her head. Why did that part of her hurt? She remembered leaving Yusei to see her father as it occurred to her that it was all a trick. How could she be so foolish because of her hopes on wanting to see her father again? Yusei knew this and should have listened. The thoughts came to mind if Yusei would worried about her.
She had wondered if this was all Divine's doing. That couldn't be as he would have sex with her while she was unconscious much with her disgust. It was something she didn't want to think about but she knew Divine wouldn't be aware of their location. Was that rival gang Team Phoenix involved with her abduction? Naturally it occurred to her that they must not have a lot of women, so one it were they trying to fulfill their sexual desires. That was something that wasn't going to happen. Her mind had drifted to the only source of comfort she could think of to help with her fears.
"Yusei." Aki whispered his name as she prayed for him to come for her. She hoped he would come into the room and just deal with his perverted nature towards her. Aki would shout at him for watching her as she was bathing. Why did she want those moments that made her so angry in the past happen now? It was a friend's with benefits relationship, so why would that even change? Aki didn't love him anymore than someone to have lots of "fun" with on occasion. Even though in their case, it appeared to be nearly after night. It's hard to ignore when someone like Yusei is so good in the bedroom. It's no wonder he had all these girlfriends in the past. However the very thought of him being with any girl besides her was nothing but an increasing hatred towards these women. It was something Aki just didn't understand.
She had remained in the water for several minutes but Aki didn't want to wait around. Aki was sure that Team Phoenix was the ones that kidnapped her. They had used her father in order to capture her for what reason? This was something she needed to find out but Aki knew she couldn't snoop around while she was undressed. Aki glanced around in panic as she had covered her breasts with one of her arms. Her eyes widened as she saw a large black towel that was hanging on one of the racks. It was going to have to do at least until she found clothes. Aki hesitantly got out of the bathtub as she looked around as she hoped none of these gang members were peeping at her nakedness. While she knew that she was every man's fantasy girl. Aki didn't want to be in these guys' daydreams as she thought about it in disgust. Maybe no man other than Yusei's but she brushed those thoughts out of head.
Quickly wrapping the towel around her large breasts but was in relief since she in some form of clothing. Aki though looked down to see her cleavage still was exposed a bit as she moved her long magenta hair to her shoulder. She could feel drips fallen from her wet hair while shaken her hair. It was a bit messy but it would have to do for now. Aki looked at the door as she reached out to touch the metal doorknob before turning it. Peeking outside of the bathroom as she left the door open a crack as extra measures so no one would see her. After all Aki didn't want to give any unwanted attention to herself especially since it would cause trouble. If she was really in Team Phoenix's hideout then danger lurked in every corner. There was nothing but silence as Aki had opened the door further while sneaking into the next room.
Just who exactly were those group of thugs? Her heart raced on the possible thoughts on what they were planning to do to her. Were Yusei and the other searching for her? She remembered that he was going to go out with her but brushed it off because it was her father. Aki believed that Yusei must be angry at her for not following his advice. Perhaps deep down she did hate herself for not listening to him. After all despite the way she treated him, he still always keeps his word on wanting to keep her safe. Though was Yusei doing this to remain on her good side so she can reward him with sex? Aki didn't understand the reason to why he had become so understanding, protective and devoted towards her since they became friends. Aki did admit she found his loyalty towards her attractive?
Aki looked around to find any means of escape before noticing a window. She ran over to it and tried to force it open but it wouldn't budge. Was the window locked by her captures so she wouldn't escape? She put her face to the window as she looked down to see that it would be impossible anyway. Aki had to take a chance as she went to the entrance of the room and hoped that she wasn't locked in. Her hand shook as she took a deep breath as Aki turned to the doorknob and to her relief it opened. She looked through the crack in the door to see if the clear but Aki had quickly hidden as she saw the young gentlemen. After all they couldn't know she had woken up but regardless she was trapped.
She decided to peek through again it was only Royce that Aki had recognized. She had noticed a small scar on his cheek that she couldn't see from the distance while on the back of Yusei's D-Wheeler. Aki had assumed that they were the other members of Team Phoenix, not that she was aware Kingston was right beside him. One member had black hair with white and orange highlights. Both he and the gang member next to him both had large amounts of criminal markings with maroon hair with light blue highlights as he was playing around with his dagger. He twirled it around over and over again with his hand. There was one more with criminal marking over his left eye in a crescent moon shape. The man appeared to be older than the others like he had the experience but he was what was left of the old gang. Purple and silver hair tied back in a ponytail with long bangs. He had a more sinister grin like the guy was ready to kill.
This is when she had decided to listen in to their meeting; perhaps she would get more answers to why they captured her? This had to be Divine's doing. This was something that had set firm in her mind. Aki wondered if there was more to it though after all he knew about her tattoo. Despite everything there were so many unanswered questions. Did everyone seem to be after her because of this power she didn't even know she had? Aki had received this tattoo when she was a child after an incident. What was the reasoning for this Crimson Dragon to give this to her?
"Slaughter, did you get the information on the girl?" Royce asked as the older man had flicked his silver and purple bangs. He took out a cigar as he igniting a lighter as he released a puff of smoke. "After all with someone like Divine wanting to hire our gang to bring this girl to his boss. There must be something more on Aki Izayoi besides the fact she's Senator Izayoi's missing daughter. After all with someone from the government missing as well there has to be more too it. I don't fully believe his words that he is a close family friend that wants her back. You can see it in that b***'s eyes. I want answers on her dammit." Royce slammed his fists on the table as he finishes his sentence. He believed that Yusei had taken her for his own personal reasons because someone of Aki's status wouldn't come along willingly. There had to be more to that as well since it was something he wanted for himself. "And why does Yusei Fudo have her with his gang to begin with?"
"Yes, there was material that this Divine when I hacked into his system to get his information. There sure was stuff he wasn't telling us when they hired us to bring Aki Izayoi to Rex Godwin. Apparently they believe there's a special power that lies dormant within her because of a being known as the Crimson Dragon. The creature is so powerful that those who receive these have markings are godlike. There's not much more as Godwin had placed a lot of the information on top secret disks. Godwin is also planning to use Aki as an experiment in a sense." Slaughter addressed to the rest of the group as he enjoyed the look of bewilderment.
"Experiment? Like cut her open to see inside." The one gang member addressed as he stopped twirling his knife. "I mean with this powers she has I am sure they would love to see more what's underneath her clothes with that gorgeous body." She heard this while Aki wanted to cover herself more than just one towel. Her large b*** were still exposed even though it was only brief as she pulled up her towel. Why did all these men have such perverted thoughts about her? For once can a man she comes against be courteous.
"No not like that Blade." Slaughter answered while he was unfazed by the guy's words. Aki was more eager to listen in as she was finally getting answers. This was the only good part of this kidnapping before she attempted to make her escape. "Can you think about other things besides killing people. "The way you think is disgusting and this is even for my standards."
"It's just the way I think." Blade let out menacingly.
"You're psycho."
"Why thank you." Blade happily expressed as the supposed insult was more of compliment. All of them just rolled their eyes. They preferred to just ignore his antics. It was the same thing at every meeting.
"Sir, I do believe we're getting off topic." Kingston whispers to Royce. It was with that Royce had faked a cough in order to stop the arguing between his fellow gang members. "We do have to think of a plan. You know Team Satisfaction would make their way here. I am sure to get the girl. We have to keep her locked up . . ."
"Yes Slaughter, did the information say anything else?" Royce questioned as Kingston acted more like his assistant as he handed the leader a box of cigarettes. He had slowly taken one out as he took a lighter before breathing it all in. "After all we need it to blackmail Rex Godwin if we want to double or even triple or many in exchange for Aki Izayoi. With her being chosen by a god for some purpose and keeping this a secret from the world. At least it's something we can hold over his head if anything."
"I can't tell you much but from what I do know he's having some kind of project that involves the girl. Her father is being held hostage but it doesn't say a particular location. As the data with the system coding is encrypted even I can't figure out what it is. You have to be super skilled hacker to even get out a small portion of the information." Slaughter pointed out as he put his cigarette in the ashtray nearby while Royce followed with his own. Aki sighed in disappointment as she couldn't get any information on her father's location or even about her powers. The only good sign was that she knew it was connected to the Crimson Dragon. She had begun to wonder if others were granted with this power too. There was sure to be more than just her if this sacred being had plans of its own. What was that purpose to begin with? Aki had closed the door as she walked back into the room since she had to wait to make her escape.
"That's really disappointing. However we can't let anything happen to this girl. So all of you stand guard. Yusei Fudo is not go" Royce remarked, Aki wasn't listening at thst point. That doesn't mean we can't scare her." He smirked as he had his own plans for this beautiful woman. These moments are so rare and he wasn't going to let anything mess up this opportunity if he can't have his fun. Royce certainly wasn't going to tell the other gang members that before negotiations with Rex Godwin. He would fulfill his sexual desires by have any means necessary, it didn't matter if she didn't want too. The leader knew this woman was basically Yusei Fudo's girlfriend this was something he didn't deny. Kingston and himself were the only two that even knew about any of this. To lure him to his hideout as a trap, screw with his girl were things that gave him joy but didn't satisfy his lust. "I will go check on the girl. Come with me Kingston." It was with that the meeting was over as they parted ways.
"What are you planning with this girl?" Kingston questioned to his lifelong friend while both of them had went to the door. Royce placed his hand on the doorknob as he turned around. "Does she really desire any of this? Especially with the fun you plan on having this girl once you enter the room." Kingston wasn't even aware of what Royce was intending to do to Aki. He wasn't all that intelligent since he was accepted into the gang because of his muscles. It gave him incredible strength most people were intimidated by.
"Just stand guard you idiot. It's not like you to show any compassion. Aki Izayoi is a real beauty and as the leader of Team Phoenix, it's my job to entertain her." Royce remarks with a more menacing smirk on his face. Kingston had prepared his pistol as Royce patted his in his pouch. "Just stand guard." It was with these words he had opened the door before closing it behind him. The leader gazed around the room as Aki was sitting on the bed. Her already naked body was wrapped in a towel since he remembered when the gang had undressed her prior. It was to get her clean so she could be presentable to Rex Godwin. They promised to not do anything to her but Royce had no plans on keeping his word.
Meanwhile Yusei had to try to restrain himself. Every muscle in his body wanted nothing more to strangle Royce. It happened over a year ago but he hadn't forgiven himself for the death of one of his own gang members. Royce menacing laugh could be repeated over and over again in his mind as he saw the corpse of his dead friend. He was reliving the events on what happened to her father. It was made even worse that Aki was in danger with the type of guy she had to deal with especially with women. This time he wasn't going to witness it happen first hand or be too late to save someone. Aki was the love of his life so he wasn't going to wait around. Yusei had searched for the location of Team Phoenix hideout as he rode his D-Wheeler. He had made a call to his friends to inform them but they protested to wait for them to get there. This was one of those times he wasn't going to listen even if it was a trap. Yes, he knew it was foolish but the anger he was feeling Yusei felt like he could take on the whole world.
When he got near the location, he parked his D-Wheeler at a safe distance so it wouldn't be seen as he took his red helmet off. Aki most likely was being kept in Royce's room but he didn't know where that was so the only hope was sign. Not that he wanted to hear her loud screams as that meant Royce was potentially doing something to her. Yusei just couldn't bear the thought of his beloved in distress. Yusei was defenseless as he had to get some weapons before he continued on. He didn't know where they kept them so he had to steal them out of one of the members of Team Phoenix. Yusei believed one of them was going to be on patrol near the outside. It's the same time of thing he would want done if he was in Royce's shoes.
Sure enough he was right Blade was circling around like a confused bird because of his eccentric nature. Yusei's father had trained him when he was a child to fight. He had secretly practiced at the orphanage to continue his father's legacy. His foster mother, Martha certainly didn't approve of violence saying that it wasn't necessary in a situation. That talking out your problems is always the first resort. The complete opposite of what his father believed since prior to his death. His advice was take action before they can do anything to you. That couldn't trust everyone around you because they couldn't be trusted. This is advice from a crime boss so you wouldn't expect anything more than advice for when he was supposed to take over. It was the one of the privileges of being his only son.
There were times he wished that he could be more of a father to him than seeing him more as someone that could take over the family business. He was not someone that Yusei could get advice from or help him with a problem. When he was very young because he was scare of a storm, he couldn't go to his parents as his father. Yusei remembered having his father making him face his fears because he shouldn't rely on others. Due to his mother's death when he three years old, he never had really experienced a nurturing touch. Martha was very strict and harsh with him because he was a troublemaker. Meeting Aki was always different from the other girls he dated. Her harshness towards him when he asked her to have sex was something he had found appealing. Perhaps it's because it was something he has always been used to their whole life.
Perhaps his whole life he had craved affection. That was the reason he had gone on dates with all these beautiful girls was because he wanted rejection. His father was the main source for all these problems he had in his adulthood. That he had all these commitment issues because he feared that no one would ever love him. So he didn't want to have the 'fun' that Crow always had with the women. Perhaps because it meant that he would be in a serious relationship. However it was different with Aki as he had felt that he could beyond what he feared. She was someone that was able to fulfill that desire that was missing in his life. It was more than just sex to Yusei; he had loved everything about Aki. Despite the hostility, she had come to be very nurturing towards him. Royce kidnapping her was very personal as a result.
"Nothing in this direction" Blade menacingly laughed as he talked to himself, Yusei hid behind a tree. He waited for the right movement to strike him so he could take his weapons. Blade was genuinely insane so it made him unpredictable if he had a blade in his hand. This was why Yusei knew that he couldn't be seen by him otherwise he would have more of a problem on his hands. He could see him looking around even glaring straight at him but he was clueless as he just shrugged his shoulders. When he had his back turned, Yusei knew this was his chance as rushed behind Blade. Yusei grabbed his neck with his forearm as he tightened his grip before he became unconscious. Blade had fallen to floor, while a smile formed on Yusei's face.
"Sorry but I am going to be taken your weapons" Yusei addressed, he didn't hesitate to take his pocket belt, he placed two knives he had into both sides. A pistol was already with it to his approval. After all, he wasn't known as the 'Shooting Star of Satellite' for nothing. No one could beat him with his speed and accuracy with a gun. He practiced as soon as he left the orphanage and it gave people a reason to fear him. There was also the matter of the training he had with his father as well. He looked up at the upper levels of Team Phoenix hideout because he assumed that was where they were keeping Aki. "Don't worry Aki, I am coming for you. Just hang in there." He confidently said this before he formed a fist with his hand. It was with that he had walked into Team Phoenix's hideout being prepared for anything. He couldn't wait for the rest of his own gang to save the woman he loved.
Meanwhile upstairs Aki was startled, she saw Royce and attempted to cover her body more with her arms. It made her very uncomfortable to be left alone with the leader of this rival gang especially with her only thing covering her was a towel. Even though she knew they planned to bring her to Godwin. The smug look on Royce's face could only meant he most likely was thinking about something more. These men only have one thing on their minds . . . sex. They did strip her naked after putting her in bath, she only could pray they didn't attempt anything on her when they did so. Aki certainly was going to give him a chance give them a chance if she could help it.
"Hey there Beautiful. You were waiting for me." Royce addressed as Aki felt the remark was very demeaning. He wasn't going to have any respect for her as a person.
"Why would I be waiting for someone that kidnapped me?" Aki questioned as with nothing but anger directed towards the gang leader. Part of her thought she could at least try to reason with him that maybe he would understand. Not that she could think he would but because of Team Satisfaction Aki had become more hopeful in that people can be reasonable. It's just she was part of their profit to make money by giving her to Rex Godwin. "Especially with the fact I had woke up naked in a bathtub. So tell me where my clothes are. I like to get changed. I would like to go home."
"Why would a slut like you need clothes?" Royce continued to insult her as he walked closer as Aki had turned her head to look away. She placed her hands to her chest as Aki tried to calm herself. She knew that Yusei and his friends would be coming for her. Despite the fact she had broken their agreement Yusei still desired to keep her safe. Of course Aki never fully understand why he would continue to keep this promise. Both of them had become friends after all they always looked out for each other but she believed it was more to stay on her good side so they could continue having sex. Royce didn't care about the feelings on this defenseless girl that sat on his bed. He had one thing on his mind and it was going to be fulfilled. "I am sure tramp like you made all the men in Team Satisfaction really happy if they're keeping a whore like you around. You're certainly would make me very contented." The insulting words were really getting to her but Aki had forced herself to hold back her tears. Aki could feel his hands touching her but she managed to kick him with his first attempt.
"Well could you at least explain this, why do you hold a grudge against Yusei? Why do you hold so much hate towards his gang? Even worse murder one of your former friends." Aki asked as she moved herself farther away from her perverted kidnapper. She glanced to see he had weapons that he would clearly use on her to have his way. What could she do if that gun was placed on her so he could force himself on her? Someone like Royce didn't care that about her feelings. The fact he was saying all these horrible things to her was under the assumption she was a prostitute. Was this something gangs in satellite did to get women on a regular basis? So did Yusei engage in sex with these women? The very thought of it made her feel disgusted at the thought of him being with another girl. Then again, why did she want to be selfish over such a thing?
"Why do I hold a grudge against Yusei Fudo?" Royce laughed as he repeated out loud on what he thought was a ridiculous question. "He was the one that got the glory for everything that I should have gotten. Yusei's father was the most feared crime lord of all time. How he was got the reputation as the greatest criminals because he was his only son. That he was could with easy be a faster shooter with never missed a shot with a gun. Not to mention beautiful women have desired to have him." It was the last of the words that made Aki cringe as her hand formed into her fist. Aki was bothered by the very notion that he had fun with other women besides her. It was strange; if it was around a month ago then she wouldn't have even cared about it.
"So you killed Bruno because he was one of his best friends." Aki questioned as she tried to continue distracting him. She had only begun to wonder on how Yusei was doing at this very moment. Was he really coming for her or was he going to leave her behind while she suffered. Just waiting like a prisoner because there was nothing she could really due but be a distraction. "Was he trying to reason with you and he got in your way . . . so your situation is to shoot him dead. That you're so cold and unfeeling that none of that matters to you."
"It was more of both. Bruno wasn't even expecting me to shoot him due to the fact we been so much together." Royce confessed as Aki was surprised by the confession because he didn't even deny it. As most of people, even the most gruesome villains would cover it up or blame someone else. It was something a lot of sleazy Politicians would do for the most part. As they always had to one up the other in some way to boost their career. Her father wasn't someone that would do something like as far as she knew but that could only been in her presence. Aki knew her father had to make a living to provide for her since her mother died. After all he was the only family she really had with her grandparents being so far away. This was one of the reasons that motivated her to survive this. She had kept getting these flashes of Yusei in her mind as well. Aki had told herself that he had suffered so much. Not only he witnessed his father's death but one of his best friends. No one should have to go through that in their lifetime.
"You're thinking about Yusei aren't you?" Royce asked her as moved in closer to attempt to touch her shoulders. Aki had elbowed him but unknowingly he didn't get that much of it as he saw that coming. "He won't be coming for you. None of Team Satisfaction will." Royce lied to her as he wasn't fond of the fact everything seemed to be going back to Yusei. Did she have something for him? He certainly held feelings for this woman. Royce wanted to take everything that was Yusei cherished as he grew impatient. As far as he was concerned this conversation was done with because he wanted to get what he wanted with Yusei's girl. Aki Izayoi wasn't going to give in to anymore of these distractions.
Inside the hideout though Yusei wasn't even sure on when he was going as he had taken out the pistol and opened one door after another from the lower levels. He wasn't sure if Aki was in the upper levels as it very well could be a distraction. Royce was always very cunning when he attempted to gain the upper hand over an opponent. Bruno ended up getting murdered because of his compassion and let his guard down. Yusei knew he was doing the same as him and being foolish since he was doing all of this alone. It was more he was trying to take responsibility since Yusei knew Aki got captured because he didn't act fast enough.
Their hideout was more like a three-story house as it had a kitchen, dining hall and many more bedrooms. Royce would want to live in the path of luxury since he had such an ego. Royce was the one that set their original hideout on fire after shooting Bruno. They had to save their friend's corpse so he could have a proper burial. Bruno had left an abandoned motorcycle shop that belonged to his uncle before it was bankrupt. It was also the reason that it was the main home for the time being. Well he claimed it was temporary as they all longed for a permanent place to call home. They just wanted to be accepted by the citizens of Neo Domino City so they could live their lives.
He knew that were planning something as he saw that Slaughter was near the staircase. He had a gun ready so he would have to fire a few shots to get through. Was he going to kill him with his attempts? There was a possibility but he always left killing as a last resort. A trait that was different from his father since Yusei didn't want to be like him. It was hard to fight because of this reputation so he simply embraced it. There was nothing he could do to stop the gruesome rumors that spread about Team Satisfaction. Gangs did things that were beyond the law and seeing the woman he had been infatuated with asking for his help. Yusei had used that opportunity be like those criminals as he blackmailed her for something he wanted for so long . . . sex. This was the reason he had to get to Royce because with someone as beautiful as Aki in one of these rooms. Why would he attempt to force himself on her? It scared and enraged him on the way the bastard could rape and hurt his girlfriend. Yusei didn't even want to think about it.
Kiryu and Crow were heading in Team Phoenix hideout on their D-Wheeler's. Neither of them cared that it was in the middle of the night because they had to take care of their rivals. They had attempted to make contact with Jack since he was in Satellite. Both of them had told him that Aki Izayoi had been captured by Team Phoenix and he agreed to join them. The question was would they make it in time, Royce wasn't merciless when he wanted something. Yusei didn't appear like himself when his video messaged them on his D-Wheeler. He was someone that had taken responsibility for his charge so he would blame himself on the girl getting kidnapped. They just didn't want him to do something so foolish that could get him killed. The problem was he cut off the video as they to tell him to wait for them. Perhaps because it reminded them of Bruno, it was something they couldn't let happen again.
"I can't believe Yusei would do something so reckless without us." Kiryu assisted as he tried to understand his friend's motivations. "I mean he was always one to take responsibility but to infiltrate Team Phoenix hideout all by himself is complete suicide. He knows what happened when Bruno had attempted to stop Royce on his own. "I mean Miss Izayoi and Yusei have gotten rather close . . . you don't think there's anything-"
"NO ABSOLUTELY NOT!" Crow interrupted as anger grew in his voice at the mere thought of a possibly relationship was between the girl he was in love with and one of his best friends. Not realizing that he was more in denial over the situation because he didn't want any of it to be true. Crow still was very confident that he could win over Aki Izayoi's heart. "They bicker all the time. It's quite clear they hate each other. Yusei's has had a girlfriend in a long time because he had been unhappy and feared commitment with his last one. She was also a real bombshell from her beauty to that French accent. He was lucky to have a girl like that chasing after him."
"You would be content if any sexy women was chasing after you." Kiryu pointed out. He shook his head at Crow's antics as he has been like he was sixteen. He was never was one to just one that had settled down with them. "You just wanted to have sex with her, much like the reason you want to be with Miss Izayoi. I mean watching a girl while she's bathing definitely borders on creepy. It's always the same thing. You're a real disappointment."
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that." Crow irritably remarks as he glanced at Kiryu before putting his eyes back on the road. "Let's just focus on getting to Yusei and rescuing Miss Izayoi."
Aki had sat on the bed as she started to hug a pillow, for the past few minutes there was nothing but silence. This scared her because it made Royce appear to be even more unpredictable. She wasn't aware on when he was going to try and do something to her. Her thoughts had drifted to Yusei, she just wanted him to be there. Being in his arms was always the one place she had come to feel safe. Was it because she was dependent of him or did she in fact have feelings for Yusei? No, there was no reason for her to love someone like him. Despite his reputation as a criminal and troublemaker, Yusei was good-hearted. He was doing all this for revenge but she was sure Godwin was the one that gave him this label. Being the leader of Neo Domino City, Rex Godwin always made sure that he always got his way.
"Now you know that Yusei is not coming for someone so worthless." Royce continued as he forced his lips onto Aki's and bit her lip. He didn't care that she didn't want his kiss as all he wanted was have his way with her. All he had to do was take off that towel and she would be n*** and vulnerable for him. There was nothing better than that see a woman weak at his mercy as they're in anguish. She kept trying to force him off her as Aki punched him in the stomach. Royce had backed away as he held it in pain.
"That should teach you for kissing me you disgusting pig." Aki yelled at him as she was rather shaken by the kiss. She wiped the back of hand as she smeared her lip to get the residue from the kiss off her. "So gross. I don't want anything of you touching me."
"Boy, I like a girl that's feisty." Royce remarks as he didn't learn his lesson on his first attempt on kissing her. This time he grabs the pillow as he throws it off her and pushes her down onto the bed. "You're such a little bitch. It makes me want you even more." As his hands started to touch her, she could feel his nails scratching her body in attempt to take off her towel. Part of her breasts started to become exposed. Aki certainly wasn't going to have any of it, with all her strength she took part of a broken piece of wood and smacked him across the face. His cheek had started to bleed as Aki had got a good hit on him.
"Alright you want to do this the hard way." Royce mutters as he takes out his pistol and aims it right in Aki's direction. Just to show he meant business, he had let out a shot close to Aki's head. It had startled her a bit though she pretended to be unfazed by it. Keeping a straight face in front of someone who wanted to rape her wasn't easy. "Listen you little whore, you're going to have sex with me whether you want too or not. A bitch like you should show some respect!" As he said this he had taken off his shirt, he switched hands with his pistol and threw it aside on the floor. "If you refuse, I can simply kill you."
"Go ahead shoot me then." Aki addressed as she looked straight at him though he could see the hint of fear in eyes. She was calling his bluff because Aki knew Royce wouldn't kill her. It's only because she was going to be sold back to Rex Godwin so if she was murdered they would lose their profit. She was going to use that to her advantage to keep herself alive. That was the only thing she could think of to save herself from this menacing gang leader. After all she knows something Royce isn't even aware to her relief. "I know you need me in order to make triple your money to sell me back to Rex Godwin. I am no fool on that. There's also the matter I would rather die than have sex with you. So. Shoot. Me!"
"You're not afraid to die?" Royce smirked at seeing this damsel trying to pretend to be strong but wanted to scream deep down. In his mind, the only thing a woman was good for was sex. They really were just a fun toy that a man could have fun with whenever they wanted. "I admit you got spunk. You're right that I need you. However even though I can't have you die however it doesn't mean I can't have my fun." He knew the threats his pistol weren't going to work so he had put it back in his belt pocket. Instead he took out his knife as he grabbed her throat as he placed the blade gently at her neck. "However what I told you wasn't a request. Take off your towel so I can see that naked body of yours. Just like a slut like you would sell your body for payment for Team Satisfaction."
"Get away from me. I am not some prostitute!" Aki refused as tears had started to stream down her to her cheeks. She wanted to scream out Yusei's name with all her might but Aki feared that Royce would attempt to kill him. In her heart, Aki had come to realize that she needed him there. He was more important to her than she had ever realized since she first hired him. Unknowingly she's been placing him on a pedestal in place of her father because there was something different with Yusei. It was special feeling that she had kept denying to herself as they had been growing closer over the past month. Aki had been fallen in love with him in that duration of time. She had told herself that it was a simply an infatuation that would disappear over time. It only made her more confused so Aki had tried to push Yusei away. This was something she couldn't deny anymore. "Yusei . . . please come for me." Royce had forced her down on the mattress as he removed the blade from her neck as he held it high into the air.
Yusei had made it upstairs, he had managed to knock out Slaughter with the butt of his pistol while it was on safety. After all he couldn't let the gun fire as he attempted to use it like a hammer. He didn't go down without a fight as he had bullets attempted to be fired at him from a distance. Yusei knew better and just waited until he was out of ammo while he missed his shots as he moved around. He didn't plan to waste the little ammo he had especially if he had to use it against Royce. With the gunshots and screams as his heart raced. He was sure that something may have happened to Aki. His fear of losing her just had kept entering him mind.
"Yusei Fudo. The Shooting Star of Satellite graces us with his presence. You're so bold to come to this hideout all alone." Kingston addressed as he snapped his knuckles with his fingers with eagerness. He had left his post to handle his enemy; it was also to make it harder for Yusei to find his boss and Aki Izayoi. Royce wanted to have his way with her and no one could interrupt him especially when he had a objective on his mind. Yusei had switched his pistol off of safety as was going up the stairs. He hid his gun from behind out of plan slight. "Aki Izayoi must be very special to you in order for you to be so foolish."
"I already had taken out Blade and Slaughter. Don't think you will stop me from getting to Miss Izayoi. She simply just hired me to protect her from any danger. You a threat, so I have no problem taking you out. I always keep my promises." Yusei insisted even though he didn't deny the relationship he had with Aki. Royce and Kingston were clueless like most other people were especially from the way he had reacted to her kidnapping. "Where is she?" Yusei asked as he raised his voice in frustration as if he was a predator on a hunt.
"I am not telling that information. Royce had given me strict orders." He laughed as took out his much larger gun as he believed that Yusei wouldn't be able to pull anything fast enough. "It's too bad that you won't get to see your girlfriend since you'll be going to hell." Kingston remarked but before he could end attempt to get out his gun. BOOM! A single shot was fired as the bullet had gone through his chest. Blood splattered onto the floor and wall behind him as he fallen to the ground. Yusei remained emotionless as this was the coldness he didn't realize he had picked up from his father. Not only that but he didn't show any regret for his death in the slightest due to what happened with Bruno and now Aki. Yusei just moved on as he tried to find his beloved in one of the rooms in the upper level as he enjoyed the thought of taken care of Royce.
Royce growled as he grew more impatient as he took his blade and cut through Aki's towel as it ripped in too as Aki had covered himself. She tried to knee him in the groin in defense when Royce had forced his lips onto hers once again. This action was certainly being punished for her crime as he had then taken his dagger as he sliced her cheek. Blood had dripped down her face before the end of the blade went once again to her neck. Aki couldn't move as true fear had overwhelmed her this time. Her large breasts had jiggled about as Royce forced her arms onto the mattress on both sides of her. This time Aki had become more frightened as she couldn't set her arms free. "You can't win. Until we sell you back to Rex Goodwin. I am going to wreck you both emotionally and physically as more like my sex slave. That you will still remain the pathetic whore that I know you truly are. Now time to give a slut like you the experience you deserve with a real man."
It was with this he leaned down as he licked and bit down on Aki's neck. It wasn't like when Yusei had done it in the past, even when she hated him it was affectionate. These types of things had only made her appreciate Yusei even more. Every touch she felt from him was like sandpaper. It hurt as he scratched her with his nails as neck was swore and painful. She didn't want any of this to be happening and wanted to wake up. That she was really going to be raped. Aki just prayed this was all a nightmare she was having and was going to wake up soon. All she was lingering on was the hope that Yusei would be coming through that door.
"AKI!" Yusei screamed out, Royce quickly loosened his grip before getting off of her completely. Aki took the chance to cover her naked body with the bed sheets. Even though the man she loved was there, she didn't want him to see her body the way it was at the moment. She was getting weak that she could even sit up properly. "Are you alright?" He asked as he called out to her but Yusei wasn't expecting much of an answer. He could clearly see the state she was in and Aki wasn't fine. All he wanted was a gesture or some kind of sign at least. This was all Royce's doing and he hated the man even more for putting her in this condition.
"Yu . . . sei." Aki weakly had let out as she tried to smile at seeing him. She wasn't even sure if she was even was since her body had felt so numb. At least everything was stopped before Royce ravished her with more pain or even stripped her clothes down even farther.
Yusei mentally let out a sigh of relief as he came before anything could happen to Aki.
"You tried to rape her. You're nothing but a bastard." Yusei screamed out. He just couldn't bear to even look at his girlfriend so shaken. All he wanted to do was hold Aki in his arms and tell her that everything was going to be alright now since he was there. Yusei could only be in relief that he had made it in time before Royce had undressed himself farther. He wanted nothing more to take revenge for all misery his friend and lover had suffered through. This was his chance and he wasn't going to blow it. "You don't even deserve the chance to breathe."
"Just because I was about to have fun with this little whore of yours. She wanted it just as badly, maybe even more. I was just about to give her the sex she wanted, until YOU interrupted"
Royce replied, even though he lied- it could have been what he was trying convince himself. "The Senator's daughter was always a slut if she was traveling around with your gang. I mean there would be no other reason for her too."
"DON'T EVER TREAT HER WITH DISRESPECT! NOW DIE!" Yusei screamed out as he clutched his hand on the trigger and didn't even bother to hesitate as Royce had gotten off the bed as he moved in closer while taken out his own gun. He was almost as fast as Yusei as Royce managed to take out his pistol but the bullet had hit his stomach as he fell to the ground. He fell to the floor as he appeared to motionless as he assumed he was dead before he put his pistol back in his belt. Aki was his primary concern and the reason he infiltrated the hideout. "Honey . . . Sweetie. Please talk to me." Yusei slipped out as he flustered in embarrassment as he couldn't believe he was calling her such endearing terms. Aki may not like it if she was in better condition.
"Yusei . . . you really came for me" Aki let out as she sat up, a blush came across his face. The bed sheets had slowly fallen off but she really didn't seem to care. Yusei turned his head away as he blushed as her naked body. He couldn't marvel at it like he normally would out of respect especially with near He had taken off his coat as he quickly tried to cover up her exposed breasts. "Here this will cover you up for a bit." Aki had pulled the jacket as she wrapped it around herself completely. She already had been through enough in only a few hours.
"Please . . . don't leave me." Aki tearfully let out as she quickly embraced him and cried into his chest. She just wanted be arms of the one person that made her feel safe. Yusei just wrapped his arms around her as he stroke her back with hand. He pressed another kiss on top of her head. "I just want you to hold me right now."
"Don't worry. I will never leave you again." Yusei insisted.
unnoticed, Royce's arm was moving from behind him as the menace held his stomach. It was still bleeding from his wound but he had enough to grab his gun. He had aimed it at Yusei's back as he rejoiced at finally seeing his enemy die. Perhaps at least get a shot on his rival as he smirks with the advantage.
BOOM! Royce's gun fell onto the ground as even bigger pool of blood surround him as he fell.
Jack managed to shoot Royce in the back of the head at just the right time.
"I really hated that bastard." Jack causally comments. As he walked into the room before he puts his gun back in his belt. It was more assuring that the man they hated for years for murdering their close friend was finally dead.
"Nice shot." Yusei remarks with a smile on his face. "Thanks for the save. I owe you."
"Good Miss Izayoi's safe." Crow remarks as he elbowed Kiryu. "See you were worried over nothing. Making us all worried with your comments on that bastard Royce. That he was going to take advantage of her. "Jack of course steals the spotlight as usual and kills him."
"Are you referring to yourself?" Kiryu comments as he crosses his arms. "Because you sound foolish. Like me you really did nothing."
"That's so hurtful." Crow answered as his failure to act like he wasn't bothered by his statement.
"I am just speaking the truth is all." Kiryu shrugged his shoulders.
Aki ignored everyone else as her crying slowed down but she had moved her arms so they wrapped around Yusei's neck. She just couldn't find the words at the moment to express how he felt. The guy was just being nice to her was all, that Yusei couldn't possibly love her back. After all with his perverted nature she wouldn't be surprised if he was ogling at her right now. However it's not in the way Aki believed as Yusei noticed that his jacket was opening. Aki's breasts were going as he quickly put his hand to close it up.
"Guys, can you back away. Aki was nearly raped so she's naked under the sheets. I used my jacket to cover her but it's not really going to work. I tried to find her clothes but she doesn't want me to leave her." Yusei expressed with worry as Aki grip his shirt tightly. She was still traumatized by the whole experience she had with Royce.
"Yes, sure thing. Come on guys." Jack smiled in understanding as began to walk away. "Let's leave the two of them alone."
"How come they get to be left alone together? Especially with her being naked in his arms. Completely exposed for him to get a free show." Crow complains as he was not comfortable with the idea of them being by themselves. As he believed that his friend would attempt something. More importantly he was beginning to view him as a rival for her affections. "Yusei I swear if you even do anything with her-"
"Crow, I have no intention. Especially in such a vulnerable state she's in. Not only that but we're just friends." Yusei lied to cover up their relationship as they still attempted to keep it a secret. Crow reluctantly left as Yusei looked down at Aki still in his arms as he never wanted to let the woman go again. The question he had on his mind was traveling with them the best way to keep her safe?
Author's Note: I hope you like the chapter. Yes, I had NO INTENTION on Aki getting raped by Royce. It's just something that had to be done since I wanted Yusei to save her. It's also helped Aki start to realize her feelings for him are a major plus. Not that she would even admit any of that too him.
Crow-Aki-Yusei "love triangle" will only get more complicated. Crow starting to get suspicious…and he may start viewing his friend as more of a genuine rival. Who knows? There also the matter with Divine and maybe more that's could end up getting to the mix. You will understand once the chapters go up.
Well you know more that Royce was very jealous of Yusei from an early age. Bruno was just in the way…and made of the mistake of trying to reason with him. He simply was killed to spite Yusei. . . .
