Kaidoh couldn't sleep after he woke up. There were too many thoughts in his head now and they weren't leaving him alone. His eyes darted toward the digital clock it was about one o'clock AM and what woke him up in the first place was sounds of breaking glass down the hall. He heard movement from the hall and someone going back upstairs and a door closing.
Kaidoh sat up from the bed shivering at how cold it was. He glanced at his senpai to find him still asleep. Good because he was going out to the river to practice and he didn't need to be stalked. Especially when he was feeling extremely awkward being around him.
He slipped out of his nightclothes and grabbed a dark blue long sleeved shirt and some jeans. He slipped on his tennis shoes and headed downstairs where his racket lay in the living room where he didn't have time to pick it up when the whole mistletoe fiasco happened. He unlocked the front door and jogged down the streets like he would when he usually did his nightly run.
The river was farther away than it would be from his parents house or the college. It was cold and he forgot to bring himself some warm water that would've been really nice right now as he arrived near the river where the bridge was. He sat there for a while to rest and instantly started thinking. Inui tried to save him. From kissing. And offered himself to Kaidoh instead so Kaidoh wouldn't have to kiss Tezuka.
Kaidoh was confused. Why would Inui-senpai care? Wouldn't it be more good data? Yes Kaidoh was scared as hell. He of course didn't want to kiss anyone but he had been having some weird feelings that were starting to hit him when he was around his senpai.
Kaidoh picked up his racket and started swinging.
Maybe it was love? Kaidoh blushed at the word and shook his head swinging the racket again. Love. It sounded too mushy for Kaidoh's liking. The word didn't sound right. And what would Inui-senpai think about such feelings? Kaidoh had no idea. He wasn't even going to think about the after effects if he told. Because he was never going to tell Inui-senpai that he loved him. It would make Inui leave. Again. And he might never look back. And Kaidoh didn't want that, Inui gave him a reason to play tennis. Without him, tennis didn't feel the same to Kaidoh.
Kaidoh stopped swinging and rested. His hands went onto his cell phone and looked at the time. Three o'clock in the morning. He was about to head home when he was roughly shoved onto the ground and punched in the jaw.
"Look who we found on our turf," said a male's voice.
Kaidoh opened his eyes only to be punched again in the stomach and someone else kicked him in the ribs. He couldn't breathe but he had sense enough to press the talk button on his phone and know where the speed dial was without looking and hoped whoever the phone called would be able to wake whoever's number was first on the list.
The person who had him pinned down grabbed the phone and pressed the end button and knew it had been thrown aside. And then he was roughly kissed on the mouth and Kaidoh didn't dare breathe or move. He was scared to death that he was going to be killed. He felt metal being pressed at his throat and he knew if he made a little move forward or even tried to fight back that his throat would get slit.
"He's quite a submissive one boss," said someone beside Kaidoh.
"Quite a cute punk isn't he? I'll let you have him after I'm done with him," replied the person on top of Kaidoh his mouth tearing apart from him.
Kaidoh tried to open his eyes only be kicked again. He winced in pain and then finally he found himself not being able to breathe. He could just remember his shirt being ripped apart and rough texture of ropes going around his wrist and ankles.
Inui was woken up by his cell phone ringing loudly. It was glowing a bright white from the screen on the bedside table. As soon as he answered someone hung up and Inui looked at the name on the glowing screen. Kaidoh. Inui's eyes instantly shot towards the empty bed and then he placed his glasses on to make sure he was seeing right.
Yes Kaidoh was gone and he had just tried to call him. Inui tried to call back only to find out the phone had been disconnected. Something was wrong. Very wrong, Kaidoh should've answered his phone and it was working just a second ago and then when Inui called back it was turned off. That and the phone only rang only rang two times. Inui had enough sense to quickly get dressed and get back up to go help him find Kaidoh.
Inui knocked on Fuji's door first. He heard someone move up from the bed and Tezuka was the one who answered it.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"Kaidoh's gone," replied Inui.
Fuji got up from the bed glancing at the clock his eyes going wide.
"At three fifteen in the morning?" he asked.
"I'll explain everything while we find him but something is very wrong," said Inui.
Momoshiro came out into the hall his eyes wide and he looked pissed just as well. Obviously he had eavsdropped and head the news through the door. Ryoma was right behind him, looking as bored as ever. How could he be calm at a time like this dammit? Kaidoh was missing!
"Mamushi's gone?" Momoshiro asked.
"No time to explain. I need back up though just in case something has happened," replied Inui racing downstairs.
Fuji and Tezuka got dressed and woke up Eiji and Oishi who bounded downstairs looking like a bunch of scared kitten. Eiji clung onto Oishi's arm as he himself listened to Inui who was explaining the whole situation. Ryoma at the time was clam a yelling Momoshiro down.. Everyone made their way to the driveway looking worried and feeling cold.
"We should split up and search. We'll find Kaidoh faster that way. Ryoma and Inui take the scooter and search. Tezuka and I will take my car. And Eiji, Oishi, and Momo you take the other car. If you find Kaidoh call and tell us," said Fuji.
Ryoma started up the scooter and Inui got on as well and they left first. Fuji and Tezuka taking the opposite road and Oishi's car headed straight.
"How do you know something's wrong senpai?" asked Ryoma.
Inui paused for a second.
"He tried calling, the phone rang two times and then stopped. I tried calling back but his phone was off afterward," he explained trembling.
Ryoma braked at a stop sign and then sped off again.
"Kaidoh cares a lot about you. He tried really hard to get you something for Christmas," said Ryoma as they looked at both sides of the road to see if they could find Kaidoh. But so far there was no sign of him.
"Really? Don't tell me what he got me. But I'm glad to know he cares," replied Inui.
Ryoma smirked as they headed to the road where the river was a couple miles away.
"He might even love you senpai," he said.
There was a long silence and Inui thought about Kaidoh loving him. It sounded nice. Inui had to admit to himself that he cared for Kaidoh deeply and never wanted to see him hurt in anyway. And now that he thought about it, care was too weak of a word. Yes, he loved Kaidoh very much. When they were in junior high he was very unsure on how he felt and during highschool he was more confident about the fact but didn't want Kaidoh to break away from him completely. And when Inui moved to Europe to study, he missed him. His data had been slightly off and he called Kaidoh once a week to see if he was okay until a month or so later when Inui and his studying got to be advanced, keeping him busy all the time.
As they neared the river they saw a group of people. Three people gathered around something and as they headed across the bridge Inui saw what had happened and his stomach did a flip. Ryoma also noticed and sped across the road and called Fuji telling them they had found Kaidoh but they needed back up to get to the river as soon as possible. He turned off his phone and then stopped. The gang of people were too distracted at what they had in front of them to care who showed up.
One of them was on top of an unconscious and tied up Kaidoh kissing him roughly. Inui didn't even bother to take a quiet approach, he tackled the one who was kissed Kaidoh yanking the punk by the hair.
"Oh fuck!" said the blonde who screeched at the surprise attack.
Ryoma sighed.
"Baka Inui-senpai," he muttered.
Inui was yanked to the ground and Ryoma tried to fight back as one of the gangsters tried to grab him. Ryoma punched and kicked as much as he could until he felt a knife being held at his throat. Inui had flung the person who had his throat off on him stepping on blonde's hands hearing a sickening crack of bones that pleased him hearing the bones crack of the hands that had just seconds ago roamed all over Kaidoh's body.
The brown haired one tackled Inui bringing him to the ground. His glasses falling off into the grass in the process.
"Alright bitch, time to pay," said the blonde getting up off the ground.
"Hold it!" called out a voice.
Inui saw a blurry form of Fuji Syusuke and Tezuka Kunimitsu standing up on the road way.
"Seems like we have more visitors. Hey babe you know what happens to people who visit our turf?" asked the one who had a hold of Ryoma.
Fuji gave no reply but instantly tried to head for Kaidoh.
"Make one more move pretty and we kill these two," called out the blonde.
Fuji stopped in his tracks and glanced back at Tezuka as if to ask him what to do. Tezuka was afraid as well. And now that Fuji had stepped away from him and was a couple feet away from him at the moment it worsened the situation they were in.
And Kaidoh, Inui finally had a chance to see Kaidoh, even without his glasses, Inui knew Kaidoh looked a mess. His dark blue shirt was completely ripped down the middle revealing his chest, his jeans were hanging down to his thighs and his undergarments were shredded barely even hanging on his body.
Inui felt angry with himself for not noticing that Kaidoh had left. He felt his blood boil and wanted to kill the people who did this Kaidoh and were holding Inui down at this very moment. And then there was a shout from the left side of him. Ryoma made a tricky move of kicking the person behind him in between the legs. He instantly stumbled to the ground and got out of reach of the gangster was holding himself in pain.
Tezuka then made a move for the one holding Inui and had literally thrown the blonde into the river. Of course the other aimed for Fuji who was thrown back against the ground by Ryoma pushed him out of the way and sent both the punk and Ryoma rolling on the ground. Momo had gotten there and sent the blonde unconscious after he had gotten out of the river. The one who had gotten hit badly by Ryoma was now back up but Tezuka had already punched the guy in the jaw sending him flying to the ground.
Eiji gasped at the sight and Oishi was dialing the police up. All three of the attackers were knocked out thanks to Tezuka, Momo, Ryoma, and Inui who did one hell of an ass-kicking job. Inui retrieved his glasses and walked over to Kaidoh. It was worse now looking closer even in the dark. Kaidoh was bleeding badly and he almost looked dead. Ropes were around his wrist and ankles and Inui got the knife beside him and cut through the ropes. Inui checked for Kaidoh's pulse, and thankfully he was alive.
The police came soon after arresting the gangsters saying the police for had wanted them for awhile now. They questioned everyone quickly and examined Kaidoh telling them that there was nothing severe to take him home and clean him up and let him get plenty of rest. Inui had placed Kaidoh's clothes back on him except his shirt, which was shredded to pieces. Momo lent his jacket to Inui to place around Kaidoh. Momo and Ryoma left on the scooter and Eiji and Oishi left in the car, they placed Kaidoh in the car laying him down on Inui's lap. Fuji and Tezuka followed behind the scooter and car in front of them heading home at about five o'clock in the morning. It was already Christmas. And a very dramatic early Christmas morning at that.
(A/N: OMFG! I was so OOC wasn't it? Then again, Kaidoh would've fought if he didn't have a knife to his throat... And Inui was just pissed (I tend to think that it takes alot to make Inui mad..>> and hurting Kaidoh is on the alot list) because Kaidoh was hurt physically, probably mentally too. Heh, you'll see next chapter. There's alot of Inu/Kai goodness in the next chapter and we FINALLY after all your paitence with me, we finally get to Christmas! Which means present opening time! XD Um just an IMPORTANT NOTE: There's a certian part in a certian chapter that isn't rated PG-13 so the rating will have to go up when that happens. It's nothing really explicit though (I have a hard time writing lemon scenes so this one is barely even a lime) but it does have clothing removal, kissing, and a little bit of touching. Between which characters? I can't tell you yet. Anyway still read it even if the rating goes up, it's the same stuff. I won't let the rating go up until we get to that chapter so be sure to maybe place the rating setting on "All Ratings" when I tell you that we have gotten to that certian chapter. Alrighty, until next chapter!)
