When TK woke up he found himself in a small room with only one tiny window for light. He was still groggy from the anesthetic, but he quickly remembered what happened. 'What do they want with me?' he wondered, 'and just who are they anyway?'
As if knowing what he was thinking, someone chose that moment to open the door. Without a word the man handcuffed TK's wrists behind his back before roughly shoving him out of the room.
The two walked for about five or ten minutes, taking too many twists and turns for TK to keep track of. When they finally stopped, TK was feeling very worn out, as the sedative was still in his system.
The door that they stopped outside of looked, to TK, like all the others, save that there was a flame insignia in the middle of it. A woman opened the door and pulled TK inside. The first thing TK noticed about the room was that the walls were lined with boxes. Upon looking into an open box he found that they were filled with all sorts of weapons.
The second thing TK noticed was a man sitting behind a desk. The man looked intimidating. 'Sort of like a power hungry business man' thought TK.
The man had been watching TK intently since he came into the room. When he finally did speak, it wasn't to him; it was to the lady.
"Well Veronica, I haven't seen him in action yet, but it looks like he'll make a perfect neko dorobou."
"I agree, love." The lady replied.
'Neko dorobou?' thought TK, 'These people actually think I will steal things for them?'
"I see that you don't believe that we can turn you into a neko dorobou," the man said, startling TK, "but I assure you, we can."
TK was very scared of the man, but he resolved to be as brave as possible. "And how do you plan to do that? I won't steal anything."
"I see you have spirit. Well we'll just have to fix that."
TK just scowled at him.
"But you've brought up a good question," the man continued. "how? Well I'll tell you." the man paused, "But first you should know who we are. I am Nenshou Ijin leader of the Makai, and this is my girl Veronica. I'm sure you know all about the Makai already?"
TK nodded and Ijin continued.
"Now on some of our missions something goes wrong and we 'lose' some people. Just the other day we unfortunately lost a koroshiya and two neko dorobous, so we recruited you as a replacement."
"Well dream on!" snapped TK, " 'cause I'm not doing anything for you."
"Oh I think you will," Ijin replied.
"What makes you so sure?"
"I had my men do a little spying and I know all about your parents and your brother. If you don't do what I say I will give the order to have them killed. And if that isn't enough to keep you in line, then this will be." While he said this he snapped a radio collar on TK. "This is a specialized collar that will allow me to know your precise location at all times. It also has a special feature that allows me to activate an electric charge in it. Depending on how high I set the charge, it can cause you minor discomfort, or it can kill you. Also the higher I set it, the more chance innocent passerby's will be hurt or even killed."
TK took a moment to let this all sink in. 'I don't see a way out of this. If I try anything my family, and possibly other innocent people, could be killed. I guess I have no choice but to go along with this for now'
Ijin seemed to know what TK was thinking and he smirked. "Glad you see it my way. Now," he said signaling to one of his thugs, "you will get food and rest, for your training begins tomorrow." With this he sat back down as TK was carted off by one of his many henchmen.
TK sighed and rubbed his, now handcuff-free, wrists as he looked around the room. It wasn't small, but it wasn't large either. There were two pairs of bunk beds in the room, and a small bathroom off to the side. Looking at the beds TK guessed he was the only one in this room, as there were no sheets but his own. 'Good,' he thought, 'Solitude will be good in a place like this.' He noticed that on the floor there was bread, water, and an apple. 'At least it's food.' He thought as he sat down on the bed and began to eat.
TK spent a majority of the next few weeks in his room. His 'training' consisted of learning how to handle many different weapons, how to disarm a security system, and how to arm a bomb. TK seemed to be good at these kind of things, but always got punished for one thing or another. Punishment consisted of being whipped, shot, stabbed, strangled, and shocked. The one thing they didn't do was burn you. The reason for this is that they didn't want to mess up the 'branded tag'. The 'tag' was just a fire insignia burned into ones shoulder. TK received his about a week after he was captured. He hated the thought of being marked as someone's property like he was an inanimate object with no thoughts or feelings. He unconsciously rubbed his shoulder at the memory.
Suddenly a thought came into his head. 'Today is first real mission,' he thought, 'Today I unwillingly become one of them. I wonder what Matt and the others would think?' TK blinked, 'Where did that come from? I've been so busy trying to not do anything to get them hurt, I haven't actually thought about them for a couple weeks.' Just then two men came into the room. 'No time to think about that now, I have to go complete my first mission.' TK was shamed at the thought.
On the way to the mission site, TK remembered his first simulated mission.
//Flash Back//
The mission was simple enough, break into a building with a top rate security system, including armed guards, and retrieve a diamond from it. If he was caught he would be given intense punishments and no food or water for a week. Another twist that Ijin added was that if he should fail, a person from his family would be injured, but just enough to put them in a lot of pain, not enough to kill them.
Determined not to get anyone hurt, TK decided to give his all on this test and worry about the consequences later.
During the simulation TK expertly disarmed the security system and used a stun gun to take care of all the guards he met. Once he found the location of the diamond, he used his athletic and stealth skills to get past the pressure sensitive floors in the room. Once he secured the diamond and escaped through the skylight, he was approached by Ijin.
"Well done, for your first test," Ijin said smirking, "you're lucky we found you kid, with your skills you were born to do this."
//Back To Present//
'born to do this.' Those words still rang in TK's mind. Out of all the punishments he had ever received, those four words hurt the most. 'Maybe,' TK thought, 'he's right.'
A/N: Well? If it sucks tell me, and I'll stop, but if you want me to keep going let me know. Also, let me know who from TK's past do you think should get tangled up in this? Season one characters only please, I don't know enough about season two. If you don't give me any ideas, I'll just pick whoever I want.
