Dark Alleys

Wow... Reviews... 'Mazing... I don't really have anything to say except that I'm going to reply to my reviews. AFF first than FF. Lemon is going to be inserted here. I'm going to dedicate a whole day to writing this. If I'm not too tired... Might fall asleep in the middle, so it might just kinda...die. I'm trying, though! You have to give me that!

bakurasgirl: Ryou thanks you for the plushie. ((Ryou: ^__^ Thank-you, Bakurasgirl-sama!)) He's away coating it in sugar to eat later with Indie. Indie has strange habits. Poor Ryou. Getting sucked into them. _ Dumb muses...

Bishojo_shadow: *bows* Arigatou, Bishojo-sama! I might not get it updated every day, though. I'll probably hit writer's block after a while. I do with every story, and it drives me insane. _ Oh well. I'll try to update as quick as I can. Not much thanks from my muses...

Elle-Fate2x1: Thanks for the suggestions! *bows* I kind of did a trial lemon with Akio-sama (we're co-writing a fic), and I might be able to get through this one. *deep breath*

bakura lover: I'm trying to update this as fast as I can, but I have so many other stories that I'm trying to get done including another completely original Yu-Gi-Oh! fanfic. Those never turn out too well for the cast... [insert evil laughter here] And I'm trying to get an original story done on FictionPress for all the people that are in my classes. I forced them to read it and one person told me to submit it to a publisher, so now I have to finish it and see if my language teacher will edit it and (hopefully) help me submit it. Gotta finish it first, though... _

Nightmare's Revenge: You got your wish. I'm updating. ^__^

And now, presenting (with special thanks to Voltaire, for keeping me sane ^_^'):

Chapter 2: The Rape (As before, I'm tired. Lame chapter titles present themselves to me when I'm tired. XP)

~*~Ryou's POV, 6:35 PM~*~

I stared at the door. Dark swept around me, pressing in from all sides. Time passed without notice and the shadows grew longer and longer...

I shook my head and looked around me. My body had been subconsciously walking towards Kaiba while my mind was back at the house. I looked around again. I didn't remember any of this being on the way to Kaiba's...

I was about to turn around to see if I had missed a turn when a hand shot of nowhere and pulled me into an alleyway that was right next to me. I tried to scream out, but a hand slapped me across the face.

"Don't you dare make a sound!" a deep voice hissed into my ear. A man who seemed to be about twice the size of me slammed me into the brick wall. Pain ripped itself through my body, and silent tears fell down my face. Lips roughly claimed mine, and a hand creeped up my shirt to toy with my nipples. Tears fought their way down my face and splashed onto the ground. The wind surrounded me harshly when my shirt, pants, and boxers were taken from me roughly. Another naked body pressed up against mine, and my lips were taken again. I felt myself being forced to the ground, but could not do anything to stop it.

I felt something straddle my hips. My arms were wrenched above my head and tied with some sort of rope and onto a pole. I couldn't move my arms at all. My shoulders felt like they were being ripped from their sockets as I tried to move away from the man on top of me. The lips pressed against mine again, and a hand continued their assault on my nipples. I wanted to cry out for help, to have anyone -- *anyone* -- come help me, but I knew that I would go through even more pain than I was already feeling if I attempted that.

The man on top of me must have guessed my thoughts. "Even if someone *does* hear you," he said softly into my ear, "who do you think is going to come help you? No one."

My eyes widened as something press deep inside me, and more tears worked their way down my face.

"P-please stop!" I begged softly, mustering up as much strength as I could to form those words. I didn't get an answer. The man on top of me didn't say anything. He just pounded into me as hard and fast as he could, with hardly a rhythm or pace. I could feel my insides ripping to shreds and blood pooling around my hips.

And then, it was over. The man just pulled himself out of me and left. He didn't untie me, he didn't help me up. He just left. I didn't expect anymore, and I was grateful to see his retreating form disappear into the shadows. When he was far enough away, the tears began to flow again, this time louder than before. I tried to get my hands out of their bonds, but to no avail. The rope only cut deeper into my skin, making my own blood seep down my arm. I tried harder and thought that I felt my hand slide out a bit more.

I don't know how much time actually passed, but my hands were finally free from their prison. I wiped away my tears and searched the ground for my clothing. When I felt them, I first pulled up my boxers and then my pants, only to realize that I had put my pants on backwards in the dark. I wiped away my tears again, switched my pants around, and pulled them up again. I didn't even try putting my shirt on. I just grabbed it and ran. I was halfway down the street when I realized that I had forgotten my shoes. I didn't want to go back until I realized I had to anyway: I was going in the wrong direction. I ran over to the other side of the road and continued to run as fast as I could, hardly knowing where I was going.

~*~Normal POV, 8:30 AM~*~

Seto Kaiba mentally cursed when he heard the phone ring. He wanted to go back to sleep. This was the first time that he didn't *have* to be up until ten. This was also the first time since he and Ryou had gotten together that Ryou hadn't come over...

"Ryou..." he whispered silently. He picked up the phone and whispered in a far and distant voice: "Moshi moshi..."

"Where the hell is Ryou?!?!" a voice yelled at the other end of the phone, waking Kaiba up the rest of the way.

"B-Bakura?" he asked, amazed. Why was Bakura calling him...?

"He was supposed to be here half an hour ago!" Bakura continued to yell. "He was going to drag me off to some place that was so big and important that I had to get up early for it and—"

"You mean, Ryou's not there?" Kaiba asked, his sleepiness completely fading.

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?! He's ALWAYS at your house, baka!!!"

"Yes, except for tonight, hinakanbetsusha [1]!"

"N—Nani?!"

"What the hell did you do with my koi?!"

"N—Nani?!"

"Stop playing dumb!" Kaiba was confused, and his confusion made him frustrated, which made him very irate. All he wanted to do was to curl up with Ryou and sleep until ten. The last thing he wanted to do was to talk to the ex-tomb raider. "Just tell me where he is! Please!"

"I...He..." Bakura took a deep breath and tried to start again. "He left to go to your house last night at around six. If you lost my hikari, I swear I'll—"

Kaiba wasn't listening anymore. He had already hung up the phone and was running down the stairs to search for Ryou. He threw open the front door and there was Ryou sitting on the front step curled up in a little ball.

* * *

Yes. I know it's short, and I apologize for it. It's just that it's 1:16 AM and I'm about to fall asleep. Hence the "hinakanbetsusha" part that I threw in there... Fear me and run – if you want to live. *runs off screaming*

[1] Sorry. I just had to throw "chicken molester" in here somewhere... ^__^
