Rating: PG 13, might go up to R (but I doubt it, well, who knows)

AN/: Hey, well, sorry it took so long. I've had a really busy week and have finally got time to write this. The downside is that I happen to have time, because I'm sick. Well isn't misery one of the best muses? Anyhow, since I'm feeling squeamish today the rape will not be as descriptive as what I planned to write originally. Hence the rating stays PG-13.

Black Boudoir Chapter ten

Kyo was in Shigure's room, getting on a white kimono, Shigure had specified that Akito would require it and since the point was to undergo as little damage as possible, they both thought it best not to give him any reason to get mad. Shigure glanced over at his cousin. He looked extremely handsome in the lily's uniform, and Shigure felt a pang of regret in his stomach. Did Kyo realise that he would have to wear that uniform from now on? It was basically impossible for him to escape now, and knowing what would probably happen to Kyo this evening, Shigure shuddered. Yet what could he do? There was simply no way in which Kyo would be helped.

Kyo looked at his own figure in the mirror of Shigure's bathroom. He liked how loose the kimono felt, but why could he not go in his regular clothing? Or even a suit. He decided that Akito might well be a very conservative clan-head and settled for his answer, ignoring the tingling feeling in his stomach.

"Are you ready?" Shigure asked, his face a mask of calm.

"Whatever" Kyo mumbled.

They made their way to the staircase, went up it and through the hall again to Akito's room. Kyo found that he could smell the incense from outside and it made him nervous. The idea of not having his wits about him in confrontation with Akito was unnerving. Shigure knocked and slid the lacquered wooden door open. He went in, bowed and motioned for Kyo to follow suit.

When Kyo rose from his rather deep bow, he notice that Akito was sitting in the back of the room where the light was dim and that Yuki was with him. Both were also wearing kimonos, Akito's was a pale blue and Yuki's a light green shade.

"Very well. You may leave now Shigure." Akito said.

Shigure bowed and left, glancing briefly at Kyo with regret showing in his eyes. Kyo's stare followed Shigure out and he found himself wishing that he could leave this room as well. He could already feel the incense seeping into his lungs and dazing him. Akito motioned Kyo forward so as to bring them face-to-face.

"So, I've given you time enough to think about my proposal. What is your answer?" Akito whispered.

"Akito-san" Kyo faltered he felt dizzy. He breathed in slowly and continued, "I will accept your proposal, to my greatest displeasure." He answered, trying to sound formal.

"Very well" Akito said. In truth, he had hope that the cat would be more fun, he had looked forward to forcing him to join, but he couldn't show disrespect yet.

"It is agreed then that you will live in one of the rooms on this floor, that you will work here and that ten percent of your salary will go to my bank-account." he said. Kyo simply nodded.

"In that case, there is only one thing left." Akito said softly with a wry smile.

Kyo was starting to feel faint again. He could hardly think anymore and was horribly aware of Akito moving even closer. He heard the words " your initiation" and all of the sudden felt light. It reminded him of being drunk, this lazy "I-don't-give-a-damn-what-happens-to-me" feeling. He felt Akito's hands slide down the back of his neck, pulling down the kimono as they went and then saw Yuki take Akito's place and start kissing his neck. He wanted to protest, but felt he hadn't the strength, and really, right now he wasn't in any pain, so why bother?

Outside the door, Shigure sat, his back to the wall, smoking a cigarette. So far he had only heard Akito's voice and an occasional answer from Kyo, but he knew that it wouldn't last long. He noticed how Akito's voice had suddenly gone quiet. He felt disgusted with himself once again; he had let this happen to Kyo. Would he trust him when this was all over?

Tohru came up to him. She sat down next to him and asked him if he was all right.

"Thank you for asking. I'm fine." He said, willing himself to look like he believed what he was saying.

"Ano, why are you waiting in front of Akito's room?" She asked and then was struck by a sudden realisation.

"You're waiting for Kyo-san?" She asked, sounding slightly bewildered. Shigure nodded.

"Wasn't there anything you could do?" She asked quietly. Shigure laughed, but it sounded a little like a cough.

"Tohru-chan, why don't you go? You must have other things to do." Shigure said lightly, making puppy dog eyes.

"But, Kyo-san. . ." she said.

"Don't worry, I'll be there when he comes out." He said.

She was about to go when the screams began. Shigure grimaced, remembering his own "initiation". He could hear Kyo calling for help, with a half sobbing voice. Tohru turned white and tears started rolling down her cheeks. She had never heard an "initiation" before but knew all to well about it. She looked at Shigure with something he read as horror and then ran down the hall to her room. Shigure followed her with his eyes until she disappeared behind her door and then took another long drag of his cigarette. He closed his eyes and listened to the now muffled yells. It seemed to be a word. He could barely make it out. When he realised what it was, a single tear escaped his closed eyelids and his breath, though quiet was unmistakably turning into sobs.

Kyo's mind was chaos. 'Why is this man doing this to me?' he thought confusedly, all too aware of the hands pulling him onto his stomach. He could guess what was going to happen. It was not hard, considering where he was. He had been rid of his kimono and was now being pushed onto his knees. 'Damn it, why isn't anyone helping me? How can Akito just look on? Why is he smiling.' He looked at Yuki. His face was set in a frown and he clearly was not doing this of his own free will. "Stop" he pleaded with him. Yuki didn't react. Kyo felt so tired, he couldn't fight back. All because of the incense. He felt something intrude and screamed trying to move away, but was held back by cold hands. He yelled again as something else in him. He faintly heard voices outside and thought he recognized Shigure's voice. He tried calling his name, all the while a constant pulsating pain occupying his mind. He called out again and was muffled by a pillow. He yelled again and again and again, the name and the pain coming at the same time. All he could thing of.

"SHIGURE!"

* * *

Tohru heard a knock on her door. She stood up from her bed, her eyes still puffy and red and tears still on her cheeks. She opened the door and found Yuki standing in front of her, looking exhausted. He came in with a blank expression on his face and collapsed on her bed. She rushed over to him and pulled him into a sitting position with one arm and placed a cushion behind his back with the other. He had closed his eyes and there was sweat on his forehead. She felt it and gasped, realising how hot he was. She ran out of the room and fetched some cold water and a cloth from the bathroom.

When she came back, Yuki's eyes were open again and as she placed the wet towel o his head he offered her a weak smile of thanks. She did her best to smile, despite her still tearstained face. He took her hand and squeezed it gently with his clammy one.

"I only obeyed Akito." He said. Tohru, not knowing what he was going on about just nodded and murmured a faint "yes".
