~Jou Pov~
Even in my dreams I can't escape him. No not even now when I know I am at least a few miles from him. I feel like I am hiding in the shadows again from him as he stumbles through the darkness trying to find me.
-Dream/Flashback-
I am trembling hiding in the corner of my room. I hold my breath too afraid to let it out. Tears make their way down my face. I press myself further back into the wall wishing I were dead at that instant. Unfortunately nothing happens except he finds me and drags me out of my hiding place. I scream but no one hears me. If they do they don't care. My father just looks at me and laughs.
"What is it? Afraid of your dear old father? You have nothing to be afraid of.."
I shake my head thinking he had no clue how terrified I was. I dreaded this each day and each night. He looked at me annoyed in his drunken haze.
"Well?" He spat at me wanting an answer.
This was one of those questions no matter how I answered there would be a beating..just a beating if I was lucky.
"Yes..yes sir." I said trying to stop my trembling along with making my voice steady. I sound so weak.
He looked at me as if thinking. I looked at him my face tearstained and horror stricken. He growled.
"What have I told you boy?"
I turn my head away quickly.
"Never look you in the face sir."
"What else?"
"Crying is for children and weaklings."
My voice was barely above a whisper. He nodded and lifted my head up forcefully. I closed my eyes waiting for the darkness to come I prayed it would be soon. So I would not know as much pain.
I held in a cry as he kicked my ribs. I heard a crack but I held in my cries the tears running down my face in streams.
I beg of you god make him stop save me. What have I done?
He continued the beating it was at least an hour before he took a break to roll me over.
"Have you learned your lesson yet?"
I stay curled up unable to speak or move.
'Well?!"
He asked anger flaring. I brace myself again as the beating begins again worse this time. It was another twenty minutes before I lost consciousness this time.
This fades to black as I lost consciousness hearing faint sounds of clothes rustling. That made me shudder.
I see a city next in the springtime. A happy place the sun coming down on a perfectly clear day. This was the kind of day no one could say indoors with. I walked along in the park smiling looking up at the green trees. I was supposed to meet Shizuka here. I stop as I hear a quiet cry. I froze for a moment when it hit me..
That was Shizuka!!
I ran toward the quiet sound to see something that shocked me. There Shizuka was in the arms of a creature. I was shaking with fear or anger I'm not sure. Shizuka looked at me her eyes showing few signs of life to them. He was greatly paled.
"J..Jou.." She said quietly.
There was a small laugh as the creature pulled away from the spot of my sister's neck where he had fed. Shizuka lay limp in his arms eyes dulled and dimmed.
"Sh..shizuka." I said staring at her body numbly.
The creature turned to me licking his lips clearing them of blood. I looked at him clenching a fist. I ran toward them with all that was in me. He smiled dropping my sister turning his attention toward me. He grabbed me tightly. I winced as this and glared at him tears running down my face showing no sign of stopping.
"Why her?."
I asked quietly. He just smiled at me. A horrible smile I can never forget. She lost her spirit, her soul, and her innocence to that man. That man I later came to know as Seto Kaiba.
That as well faded to black as he looked at me coldly.
I had once known Seto Kaiba. He had been a cold person but he was no inhumane then. It was painful partly to see him do that to my sister. I loved my sister so greatly I was a broken man at the age of fourteen. I am eighteen now. I put up a good act for my friends. I make myself seem like the happy-go-lucky type. I am not. I'm just a cold and forgotten as the day sweet Shizuka died.
-End Dream/Flashback-
I woke with a start and sat up in bed wherever I was. I looked around to see a larger room with high ceilings. The room was sparsely decorated. I looked at the bed to see silk sheets and a comforter. They were a tan gold color. The bed was rather large. I looked at the headboard to see a Red Eyes carved in wood to serve as a decorative heard board. I blinked once or twice. I was very well done. The walls were a deep yellow color. I got up and walked across the room curious partly. I opened one of a pair of large double doors. I walked out into a hall that seemed to stretch a mile both ways.
I did not know this place. He must have taken me here. I put a hand to my neck to see it bandaged. My trench coat was no longer on me. I sighed deciding to walk east. I thought to myself and I looked at the doors I passed wondering where each one led.
"I may not leave here alive.." I muttered as I stared ahead thinking. My pace was slow. I was not tired but I felt a bit weak.
The bastard must have had a snack.
I continued walking thinking. I looked around sure anyone could get lost here other than a servant or the master of the house. I shuddered thinking I might just be lost here for a week. I shook my head that was nonsense.
I pushed myself on. I saw a stairs. I decided to take them. They went downward. I supposed I must have been upstairs. I shrugged figuring that was obvious. I should probably have just jumped out the window in my room.
I stopped on the stairs as I felt a breeze behind me.
"Looks like I've been found.." I said feeling a hand grab my shoulder roughly turning me.
