Chapter 13 – Jakotsu and Kagura

A cheerful guy jumped around the corridor like a deer. He had a pink card in his hand, a very good one, made with love. This man was one of the most long-term patients in this ward; Jakotsu. He came here a bit over six years ago, at 17-years old. He would be transferred to the men's chronic ward next spring. But what about his past?

Jakotsu's first time in a mental hospital was when he was just a child. When he turned seven, he was taken in a childrens psychiatric ward for a few months. He was simply gay, which wasn't actually a problem, but he was highly disturbed, since he enjoyed seeing blood and others suffer. He was also acting more sexual than a young child his age should.

Jakotsu commited his first rape at eight years old, but only he knew that – he never got caught. And when he turned ten did the same thing again, but got caught this time. His victim was his classmate, a boy of his age. But because Jakotsu was so young, he couldn't be sued. He spent a year in a childrens ward and was let back home. But just one month from that, he raped another boy. This is when he was sent to the difficult-to-treat childrens ward to this hospital, Kuroshima. He never stopped 'falling in love' with boys, but didn't do anything serious during those two years he spent there. And so just when he turned 13, we was signed off.

But when Jakotsu turned fifteen, he carried on raping, but there came a new feature; he hit the victim unconcious or dazed them, so that they wouldn't remember anything of what had happened. But not always – sometimes Jakotsu killed the victim. Their bodies were found from forests and trenches.

The news were filled with questions about this mysterious rapist-murdered, and he wasn't caught for years. Everyone was scared. Within two years Jakotsu had raped and mutilated 20 young man, and killed eight.

Then finally one of his victims and managed to escape and ran to the nearest police station. And so Jakotsu got caught at 17-years old. He was sued, and the charges were hard. 23 rapes (because the very first was still unknown, eight murders and 20 mutilations. A case this serious was rare even in court. The prosecutor demanded a psychiatric assessment, and like everyone had quessed, the result was clear: he was not criminally responsible.

So a long sentece began. It could last for the rest of his life. Now he was 23, and had been on K10-3 for six years, and even though some advancement had happened, there was no way he'd be freed.

"Lal la laa, Inuyashaa, I wanna kiss yaa!" Jakotsu sang and did a few pirouettes.

"Jakotsu", a nurse shouted from the other side of the corridor. "Be appropriate."

"I AM being appropriate!" Jakotsu laughd. "I love ma' little puppydoggy-Inuyasha!"

"Should we take you to the box or will you stop this?"

Jakotsu showed his middle finger at the nurse and got back on his way on the corridor. He arrived into the action room, and found just the person he had been looking for: Inuyasha. The boy was sitting on the sofa – OMG, with no straightjacket! - and looked at Koga, who sat by him, playing PlayStation. As Jakotsu walked into the room, both boys' eyes turned at him.

"Here, Inuyasha!" Jakotsu chirped and gave Inuyasha the card. Inuyasha didn't take it – but Koga did.

"Jakotsu, are you really serious with these cards?" Koga grinned and raised his eyebrow.

"Ooooh yea!" Jakotsu nodded. "Inuyasha, you're so cute! I'd wanna fuck you!"

Inuyasha stared at nothing, like he hadn't even heard of what the man had just said.

"Jakotsu. The number you have called cannot be reached. So get the hell out of here before I call the white-coats", Koga threatened. Jakotsu crossed his arms with a pout.

"What's going on here?" That was Kagura, who just stepped into the room. Jakotsu grinned. As the woman got closer, she saw the love card in Jakotsu's hands.

"Jakotsu, stop this madness", Kagura snorted. "You know that Inuyasha doesn't give a shit about you."

"Now it's not about caring, it's about sex!" Jakotsu started lauhging.

"NURSE!" Koga and Kagura shouted together. Soon three nurses ran into the room.

"What's going on in here?" one of them asked.

"Jakotsu would like to rape Inuyasha", Kagura said. "That's what he said."

"Spoilsporters!" Jakotsu shouted and marched out of the room. And so one nurse ran after him.

"Why doesn't he ever learn?" Kagura puffed. She knew Jakotsu. They had both been here for guite a while. And what about Kagura's past?

She belonged to a gang of youkais, who murdered and mutilated humans. But only humans, not youkais or hanyous. They were known in the front pages, but nobody caught them. Their motives were unknown, but maybe it was about the revenge of the past, when humans wanted to kill youkais and especially hanyous.

The organization was still at large, and Kagura was the first and as for now the only member who had been caught. She had also gone through a psychiatric assessment, and was diagnosed criminally insane. She was 17 back then. Now she was 22, and, just like with Jakotsu, her freeing wasn't topical. She had also refused to give out any information about the organization, it's location or other members, even though she was interrogated by the police every month.

Nowadays Kagura at least usually behaved cool and rationally. Her diagnoses were psychopathy and psychosis. But if you'd meet her at the street, nobody could tell she was a dangerous psychopatic. She seemed a sensible, adult woman. She actually maintained the calmness upon the ward, and had never done anything bad to the other patients, not even humans. She got along with everyone, and was like a 'leader' of the girls.

Jakotsu walked fast, almost ran through the ward all the way from the activity room to his room. A nurse was following him. Jakotsu slammed the door shut right in front of the nurse's face, but he opened it and walked in.

"What happened, Jakotsu?" the nurse asked. "You haven't done anything bad for a long time – years – and now you molested Inuyasha. What happened in there?"

"I didn't to nothin'!" Jakotsu snapped.

"Come on. You told Inuyasha you want to 'fuck' him."

"That was an innocent blurt! And it's true I tell you!"

"If you ever want to lay a foot out of this hospital, you must gain self-control and give other people some space", the nurse said. Jakotsu huffed and turned away from the nurse.

"Your own nurse Ryo will be here in the evening shift. We will tell him about this and he will accost you a bit."

"Yea right. I don' care", Jakotsu grunted with his arms crossed.

"You are not at the most difficult-to-care patient's ward for nothing. You know it", the nurse sighed, but Jakotsu didn't stop his sulking.
