"Akito…" The hazel eyes opened only part way, still a bit cloudy. Hitori grasped the dogs hand tight and knelt beside his bed.

"Shigure…Shigure!" He tried to get through to the dog as those eyes were open for just a moment more. Soon enough they drifted closed and he was lost to the world of consciousness.

"Let him sleep. Maybe he'll die." All eyes turned to the door where the infamous Akito now stood. Hitoris eyes narrowed and he growled a bit. How could Akito be so bold…no…so cruel to even say something like that.

"How dare you…" Rising to his feet, his fist clenched, the doctor paced towards the man who caused his dear Shigure so much pain. "How COULD you…" That sickening sneer came from the man that claimed himself God, his slight form leaning against the door frame.

"What ever are you talking about Hitori…I haven't a clue."

"How DARE you even deny it! This is all your fault! It's YOU who caused him all this pain; it's YOU who made him do this!" Hitori raised his fist but simple words fell from Akitos mouth that stopped the dragon dead in his tracks.

"I would watch what you say Hitori. You may have him in your care now, but he does belong to me. He will always belong to me." Hitoris fist lowered.

"What are you talking about?"

"The dog and I made an agreement."

"An agreement?"

Flashback

The young Shigures hands shook horribly, Akito towering over him.

"Hitori told me you got into another fight! ANOTHER ONE! MUST YOU CONTIOUNOUSLY BRING SHAME TO THIS FAMILY! WHY? WHY CAN'T YOU BE A GOOD BOY LIKE EVERYONE ELSE!" Hitori stood by the door, listening to every word. It was funny almost, Akito wasn't much older then most of them, maybe by a handful of years yet he still struck fear in everyone.

"Leave me alone Akito! Why can't you just hurry up at die!" There was a pause and Hitoris winced as he heard skin meet skin. Again and again the sound echoed through the empty room. Empty all except for two boys. Akito grabbed the front of Shigures school uniform and brought him close to his face.

"You need to learn something and you need to learn it now. You're not a member of this family dog. You are a possession. And you will belong to me until you die. I will make you a simple deal and you will take it or suffer. You will forever belong to me, you will never love another, belong to another and I will let you simply walk away from this home." Shigure glowered but the hatred faded and he looked down.

"Yes…" It came out as a whisper. With a snarl, Akito dug his claw like nails into the boys' chest, growling the words into his ear.

"Louder…"

"Yes…" He spoke a bit louder and let out a pain filled whine as the nails dug in deeper, piercing the flesh.

"Louder!"

"YES!" Throwing the boy to the ground he just stared down at the crumpled boy, watching him try to conceal his sobs. "I fucking hate you Akito. I hate you!" With a swift kick to the boys' side, Akito stormed out and looked at Hitori.

"Deal with the wretch…" Hitori nodded, watching Akito walked away he knelt by the sobbing, bleeding boy and that's when he made the final decision.

"Shigure…I'm going to let you forget this all. Forget everything that man has ever done to you." Tear filled eyes looked up.

"H-h-how?" Without hesitation, Hitori kissed the boy. It was meant to be a distraction but it became more passionate and soon the boy fell limp. Hitori removed his hand from the boys' eyes and a sad smile crossed his features.

"Like that…"

End of Flashback

"But I…" Akito snickered a bit and pushed himself from the wall.

"The mutt was dumb enough to make it twice. Your little stunt back then made no difference now Hitori."

"You'll never touch him again Akito." The other laughed as he turned his back.

"So you think Hitori. He'll come back to me, just you watch."
