Attempted Rescue

Rei and Mariah had seen it all. They hid within an empty hut on the boarder of Jin's village. Mariah had said that the lights never went on in this hut and so presumed it was empty. A good hiding place to gain bearings on the foreign village. Rei had moved about that morning when he bumped into Mariah, and that's when they decided to go without the others and rescue Kai; they knew the landscape better than the others did anyway. The room was dark, damp and empty, but that didn't matter. All that mattered was what was going on outside.

They had seen Kai walk through the alley, looking depressed and alone and Rei was going to step out and grab Kai, but then the girl turned up and challenged Kai. Rei smiled when he saw Kai let the girl win; it gave him hope. Then Jin came, Rei just wanted to go out there and strangle that idiot while beating the life out of him, but Mariah held onto him and the image that appeared before him next. Kai kissed Jin. Kai kissed Jin, willingly. Allowing that thing to let his hands roam around Kai's precious body while allowing him to enjoy the feel of Kai's mouth. Rei's spirit had almost diminished at that sight, yet he could not prepare himself for what happened next.

He watched as Kai knelt down and carefully unzipped Jin's trousers, then turned away from the image, knowing very well from Jin's groans of pleasure what was going on. Mariah had taken Rei hand and was stroking it lovingly with her thumb as she watched Kai pleasuring another man willingly. Rei wanted a knife, not for Jin, but for himself. The earlier images played in his head, punishing him, burying into his soul, killing him. He didn't want to see this, this wasn't what he expected to see when he arrived.

"Rei! Kai's running!" Mariah squealed.

Rei turned to the window to see Jin collapsed on the floor, trousers down at his knees and Kai running away towards the hill that led to their village. Rei's heart lifted into the air with joy, only to fall back down. Kai was ambushed and fastened to the floor by Mikio, Riki and Yuto. Jin walked up and slapped Kai around the face. Slits, catlike slits occupied Rei's eyes now. No one touches Kai like that and gets away with it. Mariah squeezed Rei's shoulder to try and calm him down. Personally, Mariah was loving this act, it meant a rift would be in their relationship from now on and forever.

Rei watch intently as they carried Kai away towards a hut which Rei memorised completely. He was going to get Kai back and he was going to get him back now. Mariah placed her hand on his jawbone, catching Rei's attention and making him turn to face her. Mariah's eyes were so deep and full of love for Rei that he could only smile down at her.

"We'll get him back, Rei. Don't worry, I'll help you." Mariah reassured.

"Thanks, but if we're going to do it, we'd better act quickly." Rei asked, the only reasoning behind that being, he wanted Kai back, in his arms, for him only.

"I agree. Come on." Mariah urged.

Mariah opened the door that lead to the park Kai had just been in. Rei looked around, remembering everything that had happened in graphic detail. Mariah grabbed his hand and dragged him into the alley. As much as she hated doing this, she still didn't want to get caught. They entered the alley of darkness and hide in the shadows while they waited for the pebble path ahead of them to clear. Once an old woman and her grandchildren had passed them, Mariah and Rei ran across the path and into another dark alley.

At the end of the alley, the light shone brightly, blinding them. Once their vision had cleared, the object of their mission was revealed. The cabin that Kai had been sent into stood before them. Rei wanted to go in there right now and get Kai out of there. Mariah clasped his hand in hers to calm him down. She didn't want Rei to get caught. Rei agreed, if he got caught they might force him to watch as Jin pleasured Kai, and Rei didn't think he could cope with that. They heard a click and looked towards the cabin. Riki, Yuto and Mikio walked out of the cabin, muttering to themselves.

Once they had turned a corner, Rei and Mariah rushed over to the cabin and carefully opened the door, stepped in and carefully closed the door. The cabin was decorated in silk and leather, making it look like a palace. Muffled sounds could be heard from down a corridor. With catlike agility, Rei and Mariah walked down the corridor and stopped outside the door where the voice was coming from.

Rei leaned against the door to hear what was being said. It was Jin's arrogant voice that came through.

"If you do something like that again, Kai-koi, I won't be as kind to you as I was. If you do something like that again, you will have to be punished, and I have many different ways of punishing you, all lined up. Behave my precious or you'll live to regret it."

Silence. It went quiet, Rei wanted to know what that bastard was doing. If anything, he wanted to break down the door and kill that son of a bitch. Mariah tapped Rei on the shoulder and he turned around to see Mariah climbing into a trapdoor that lead to an attic. Rei climbed up himself and they crawled along in the dark and stopped over where Kai and Jin where.

Spying through a gap, they saw what they had dreaded. Kai was strapped by leather restraints to a king sized bed covered in silk blankets. Kai's top had been removed and his leather trousers sat dangerously low on his hip. Jin was lying on top of Kai, forcing his legs to spread. They were kissing, what was worse was that it looked like Kai was enjoying it. Rei's eyes slit again and his fists clenched, he wanted Jin dead, how dare he touch Kai like that. Mariah covered his hand with hers trying to calm him down. Rei agreed and took deep breaths, but the anger was still there, building, building.

Jin got off the bed but leaned down and kissed Kai lightly before leaving the room and locking the door. Rei watched as Kai rolled into a ball, his arms pulling on the restraints. It looked painful, yet Kai didn't seem to care. Rei watched as he closed his glistening eyes. Rei's heart sank, he wanted to hold Kai and make him feel better. Mariah began to pull away the boards to produce a gap. Kai didn't flinch at the noise and Rei just stared at Kai, lovingly.

Mariah tapped him on the shoulder, pulling Rei from his trance and allowed him to jump down first, Mariah followed behind. Rei walked over to the bed and sat next to Kai. He wiped away a stray tear that had escaped Kai's eye. He shook Kai gently not wanting to hurt or distress him, Kai didn't move. Rei shook him again and Kai's eyes fluttered open slowly. His eyes turned to Rei then turned away, his head burying into the pillow. Rei felt rejected and hurt.

He placed his hand on Kai shoulder firmly but it was rejected with a twitch of a move, as if Kai was disgusted. Rei heart sank lower. Mariah undid Kai's restraints then moved over to the door to watch out for anyone approaching the room. Rei watched as Kai wrapped his arms around his chest, hugging himself. He placed his hand on Kai's head, stroking it gently. That's when Rei noticed that Kai's triangles were missing and his hair was a mess; he looked awful.

Rei's hand moved from Kai's head to his neck where it rubbed over a love bite, which Kai flinched at. Rei growled, he had marked Kai's skin! Rei hadn't even done that yet, how dare he do that in just one night. Rei looked over Kai's balled form and growled out load when seeing the strap on Kai's ankle with the wolf symbol. Rei ripped it off and threw it away. Kai would never belong to him, never.

Rei leaned over and covered Kai's body with his and whispered to him.

"Kai. We have to get out of here, Jin could come back at anytime and I'm not leaving without you." Rei whispered.

"Leave me be." Kai growled.

"I can't do that, I love you too much. I don't care what Jin's done to you. Whatever it is we can work through it. But no matter what, you'll always be perfect to me." Rei fought.

"You're delusional." Kai growled.

"That's Black Dranzer talking, not my Kai." Rei fought.

"I'm not yours." Kai barked.

"No, no you're not. You're your own person, but I love you, and I want us to be one. That means that I'm yours and you're mine."

Rei knew he was getting to Kai, his shoulders where quivering slightly. Rei knew only one more thing would break through the web Black Dranzer had spun. Rei leaned closer to Kai.

"Aishiteru, Kai-koi." Rei whispered.

Rei sat up and watched as Kai quivered. His lips opened slightly and Rei leaned forward, knowing Black Dranzer would only let Kai whisper the words.

"Aishiteru, ko neko. Gomen, gomen nasai." Kai whispered.

Rei smiled and watched as Kai turned over to face him. Rei leaned down and lightly pressed his lips against Kai's, then releasing him from the intimate touch and looked down at Kai's chest and saw Black Dranzer's bit- piece resting against his chest.

"Get rid of it." Rei ordered harshly.

"No." Kai said bluntly.

Rei sighed, he didn't not want to argue with Kai now. He held out his hand and helped Kai off the bed. Picking up a stray white shirt, he passed it to Kai. While Kai put the shirt on, Rei opened the window. He buttoned up his shirt to hide the bites Rei hadn't seen yet. Rei opened the window and motioned for Mariah to come over. She obeyed and jumped out to keep watch. Rei turned to Kai who was looking at the bed, eyes saddened. Rei walked over and held Kai by his arms.

"Kai, we can talk about this later, we have to get out of here."

Kai looked up at Rei then stepped out of his hold and jumped out of the window with Rei following behind. They landed on the hard soil floor that worked as a foundation for the cabin. From behind the woodwork, they could make out Jin talking to his grandfather. He looked worried and angered.

"When did they see them?!" Jin ordered.

"About half an hour ago, outside your cabin, grandson." His grandfather murmured in his a used voice.

Jin bounced up the stairs and walked into his cabin again. Kai turns to Rei, serious mahogany eyes staring into his distressed golden orbs.

"He's going to check on me. I have to go back, if he doesn't find me there, it'll be nearly impossible to get out of here." Kai explained, calmly.

"No. I'm not going to let you, even if I have to drag you out of here." Rei cried, tears running down his cheeks at the thought of Kai going back.

"I've almost escaped already today. I can get out of here on my own. I have to go, he'll be back soon." Kai explained.

Kai went to stand but got slapped by Mariah. Kai held his cheek as he looked at Mariah, shocked. Mariah had an annoyed and serious look on her face. As much as she hated Kai for taking Rei from her, she did not want to make this journey for no reason.

"I don't care what it takes, all three of us are getting out of here." Mariah hissed.

Kai sat back down in the dirt next to Rei, who immediately wrapped his arms around Kai's neck, digging his head into Kai's neck. Kai could feel the tears on his skin; they were warm yet chilled as they ran down his back. Kai raised his hand and stroked Rei's raven hair in short runs. Mariah could only smile at the sight, they were meant for each other, yet, it still didn't stop that sting of jealousy running up and down her spine.

They heard Jin unlock the door to the bedroom and storm in, immediately shouting Kai's name out continuously. He swore at the gap in the ceiling and then leaned out the window to look for signs of him. When he didn't see anything, he rushed out the house and ran towards the town hall. Mariah looked around looking for the right time to run.

"We have to hurry then, he'll get there in a few minutes then there's virtually no way of getting out." Kai informed.

"We'll make it." Rei promised, squeezing Kai's arm.

"It's clear." Mariah whispered.

They climb out from under the porch and run stealthily across the road and into the alley Mariah and Rei had themselves waited in. One behind the other they sneak through the alley to the other end. This would be the big run. The main pebbled road ran thick from the other alley. Mariah looked around quickly before skipping back, worried.

"It's absolutely packed, there's no way we'll pass without being noticed." Mariah informed them.

"Then let's go back." Rei offered.

"Waste of time, both ways lead to the public path and the market. It'll be worse." Kai disagreed.

"Great. Now what." Rei complained.

Kai lowered his head, then raised it. The Black Dranzer bit-piece was glowing corruptly against Kai's chest.

"I have an idea." Kai purred.
