Broken Home
Summary; Reikai is Dom and Mia's 15 year old brother. You'd think that he'd
be just like them, but he's not. He's gothic, depressed and much more.
Unlike his siblings, he can't stand racing. He hates it, so when Dominic
makes him go to Miami with him and the rest of the team because of the
hijackings, he flips and tries to kill himself. It doesn't work. Change is
not something he's big on, seeing as he's been thru enough to last one
person a lifetime. This is his story.
Note; This might turn out to be a crossover with Good Charlotte, Linkin
Park or some other band. Don't get pissed if it does.
"I hate you! I hate all of you! Mum told you to take care of me but you don't get it, do you? That means you have to listen to what I say! I hate you!!" I scream and Dominic growls at me, a deep rumble sounding in his chest. Mia tells me to go pack and Jesse glares at me while Letty, Leon and Vince all stomp towards me. I resist from punching them, seeing as the casts on both of my hands are only gonna make them slow me down. I whimper when Dom pushes me to the wall, digging into my cuts from Leon's torture.
"Pack. You have 15 minutes before we leave. And you're coming with us so don't even think we're going to leave without you." He snaps at me, finishing it off with a squeeze to my throat. You all may wonder why he does this to me, well. I was the mistake in the family. Everyone's a racer in the Toretto family- everyone but me. I'm gothic; I hate racing and most of all cars. Wouldn't you when you watched your father die in one when you were 7 years old? I don't even understand why my 'brother' can even stand being near one. Frankly, they scare the shit out of me, so when Dom told me that we weren't going to Mexico and that we were going to Miami because the racing scene is better there, I flipped out.
"Fuck you. I'm not leaving this house. And I'm not leaving Atticus." I tell him quietly. Atticus is my full-blooded silver Rhodesian Ridgeback. Mia hates him because of his size and temperament, so does everyone else on the 'team'. Only Vince has a reason to though, he was bitten by him when I first got the dog. V had pulled on of his ears roughly when it was just torn open by one of Edwin's Presa Canarios. Att left a deep mark on his knuckles but earned a broken rib in the process. Vince frowns at the mention of my dog's name and Dom smacks me.
"Too bad, now go pack!" Leon shouts at me and I grumble, racing up the stairs to my darkened room. The black walls are covered in a few posters of my favorite bands, mostly Taproot, Disturbed and Linkin Park though with a few Good Charlotte ones. I grab my walkman, all my cd cases and my black duffle bag before opening my dresser drawers. I stuff all my pants shirts and boxers into it and then grab my knives. Taking all my bracelets, choker collars, beanies, makeup, hair supplies and wristbands, I push them in next then grab Atticus's stuff, putting all of it in the side pocket. A tear runs down my cheek when I see the picture of me, Mum and Dad sitting on the front porch, playing a board game when I was 7- the year Dad died. I scream, pick it up and smash it against the wall, wiping my eyes and smudging my black eyeliner. The frame cracks, glass shattering from the impact.
"I hate you! I hate what you put me thru! Why do you torture me for something that wasn't my fault? What'd I ever do to you??" I howl, falling to my knees and reaching for a piece of the glass that looks sharpest. I dig it into my wrist, above my cast, right into the protruding arteries and drag it to the inside of my elbow. The blood flows smoothly and I flinch when the glass scrapes my bone. Doing the same to the other, I twist the glass when I reach my elbow, making more blood drip thru the cut. A new pounding on my door makes me cover my ears, a migraine forming quickly from my shouting.
"Reikai!! Open the fucking door! Now!" I didn't even notice I had locked it and I whimper, shaking my head while standing and going into my connected bathroom. I grab a bottle of what I think is Excedrin and take 3 of them at first before deciding to take a couple more. 'I'll die quicker if I take these.' I think, swallowing 5 more after that. My head is swimming by now as I sit in my bathtub, head hitting the wall hard. I look at my wrists and sigh.
"Fifth time in two months. What a fuck up I am." I mumble, my eyes glazing and closing slowly as the door to my room bursts open. Mia looks in the door to the bathroom and sighs, motioning for Dom to take a look. He growls again, I ear it echo in my ears, before he stomps into the small room, knocking over the bottle of pills at the same time. He himself sighs when he notices them spill on the ground.
"Damnit Reikai. What the fuck is wrong with you?" He mumbles, picking my small form up from the tub and having one of the guys grab some towels to wrap around my arms. Granted, I don't see this, it's all happened before so I know it by heart. They do the same thing every time. My eyes snap open when they shove me, literally, into the backseat of someone's car.
"No! Let me out of here!" Its Dad's charger, the car that killed him. Dom shakes his head and speeds out of the garage as I see Jesse walk out with my duffle bag and a few of his own. Letty turns back to me and presses her hands to the rags covering my arms, trying to stop the bleeding. A sudden turn makes me jerk to the left and slam my head against the window, knocking me senseless for a moment. "Fucking retard!" I shout seconds later, rubbing my head and glaring at him. Letty smacks me just as he stops in front of a hospital- another thing I hate. I hear the screeching of the other team member's cars pulling up next to us and I glower. My head falls limp after I peel the towels from my arms making the bleeding start up again in great strength and I pass out quickly.
"Suicide attempt number 10 in the past three months, Mr. Toretto. You should really think about putting your brother in a mental facility where he can be watched at all times. He'd be safe and taken good care of as well." Is what I hear when I come to. 'Fucking-a. He did it again, actually brought me back. I wanted to die, damnit!' I think, my eyes fluttering open slowly and focusing on Dr. Greene. I glare at him when he smiles softly at me and someone smacks me upside the head. I turn to the person to see Vince shaking his head at me. 'Man, I thought only Dom was in the room.' I growl, sighing seconds later. "Hello Reikai, how are you feeling?" Stupid fucking question. I blink at him before speaking quietly.
"How the fuck do you think I feel, Jackass?" I growl at him only to be smacked again. "Stop fucking doing that!! I'm surprised I don't have brain damage from all the times I've been smacked upside the head!" I shout, surprising only the doctor. He clears his throat and looks away from me to my brother.
"Think about what I said. Reikai, you can get dressed and ready to leave. Your sister told me about the vacation and I think it is a good idea for you to get out of the house for awhile. Just don't do any heavy lifting or strenuous activity for a few weeks." I grunt, shrug and pull the IV out of my vein and step out of the bed, groaning from the pain in my head. I grab my bondage pants and pull them on, seeing as I still have my boxers on and grab my shirt after pulling the gown over my head. Looking in the mirror- like walls, I see my make up has been washed off and my hair is limply laying ontop of my head.
"Damnit all." I mumble, stalking out of the room and hospital as well with everyone following me. I walk away from the cars and out of the parking lot, turning the corner to the next block. After a minute of walking I hear Dom's shouting but I ignore him, walking faster than before and crossing the next street. None of the people in the team get out of their cars to grab me as I stop at our house, walking behind it and to the woods behind it. I walk for fifteen minutes in a straight line before reaching Atticus's kennel. "Hey boy. What's up?" The dog jumps on the metal link fence surrounding him and pokes his nose thru on of the spaces, sniffing my hand. I hear the team walk up behind me and open the gate, walking into the kennel and sitting on doghouse I made for Att that's in the middle of it. No one dares to come in because of Att's growling.
"Reikai, get outta there, now. We have to go." I shrug at Mia and blink as Dom opens the gate slowly. I speak one word to my dog.
"Attack." He does, jumping onto my brother's chest and biting his arm, tearing it open when he shakes his head. Dominic screams in pain. "It's amazing really. I wonder what all of your adoring fans would think of you if they saw this. The Great Dominic Toretto afraid of a dog smaller than a BMX bike. Pathetic." I mumble, circling him before whistling. I shake my head when Leon walks in to help my brother up. "Fucking prick." I leave the kennel, motioning for Att to follow me as I grab his leash and collar from the tree next to it. I hook him up on the leash and walk out of the woods, go to Mia's car and get in the backseat with Atticus right next to me. I notice my duffle bag is lying on the floor and take my walkman from it just as I feel my cell phone vibrate. Looking at the ID I quirk an eyebrow. Who the hell? I don't know this number. I shrug, press talk and answer.
"Reikai? Is that you?" I know this voice, I know I do. "It's me, Seth. You know, Jesse's ex? Your old best friend? Ring any bells?" I gulp. 'Oh fuck, he's gonna wanna talk to Jesse.' You might be wondering what is so bad about him wanting to talk to Jesse, well Jesse's kinda changed from the last time Seth saw him. Okay, so he's changed a lot. "Reikai? You still there?" I just now notice that the car is moving and that we've reached the highway.
"Yeah, Seth. I'm still here." I whisper. "What- what do you want?" I ask him quietly, looking at my sister to see if she heard me say his name. When he left LA, he and the team weren't on good terms, so naturally everyone hates him. He sighs, probably trying to stall on what he has to say to me.
"I hate you! I hate all of you! Mum told you to take care of me but you don't get it, do you? That means you have to listen to what I say! I hate you!!" I scream and Dominic growls at me, a deep rumble sounding in his chest. Mia tells me to go pack and Jesse glares at me while Letty, Leon and Vince all stomp towards me.
