Sadist group™ : Excessive violence and dark themes up ahead. Turn back if you don't wanna read.
"Demon? Are you crazy?" Hamuko growled. "How in hell did you arrive to that conclusion?"
"Do you think I did this to myself?" Ikutsuki replied. "I was just sitting here and that blasted demon attacked me for no reason!"
Hamuko's left eye twitched. She resisted the urge to strangle the already beaten chairman. "Minato is not a demon!"
"Silence Hamuko, that is quite enough," Mitsuru snapped. She turned to Ikutsuki. "Are you sure that was him?"
"I knew it all along," Junpei barred his fangs. "That thing is no human being, he's a fucking monster."
"We should do something," Yukari added. "Tie him up and torture him till he tells the truth."
"I always had the f-feeling," Ikutsuki stood up. "His unbelievably high strength, reflexes and pain tolerance are impossible for any human being to possess. Why do you think he keeps coming back from the dead?"
"Shut up," Hamuko snapped. "You don't know what he's going through."
"I said that's enough," Mitsuru sent a cold glare at Hamuko who gritted her teeth.
"Minato would never harm someone who doesn't deserve it!" Hamuko shot back.
"W-What did I do to deserve this?" Ikutsuki replied. "No sane human being can be so cold and brutal," He coughed out some blood again. "And his voice, didn't you hear it? He can change it all will!"
"That boy is no human," Ikutsuki finally stood up. "We must act quickly otherwise he might end up slaughtering us all."
"You shut your mouth," Hamuko growled, she was ready to tackle Ikutsuki but Yukari held restrained her.
"I know you like him," Yukari spoke. "But come to terms : That asshole is a demon. He isn't one of us."
"What do you know!?" Hamuko powered out of her hold and went running towards the door. She was aiming to wake Minato up so she could prove that he's innocent but she was stopped, by Mitsuru no less.
Mitsuru grabbed a hold of Hamuko's wrist, harshly pulling her back and delivering a vicious slap across her face which sent Hamuko to the ground. The auburn haired girl looked up to her senior with shock. "S-Senpai?" She couldn't believe Mitsuru had slapped her.
"I know this is difficult for you," Mitsuru sighed. "I apologize but I will not let my team be killed by some demon."
"D-Don't you trust him?" Hamuko stammered. "He saved our lives countless."
"He never really gave a shit about us," Yukari answered. "He only saved you, for god knows what reason."
"Plus, we trust Ikutsuki-san way more than that scumbag of a person," Akihiko spat. "That son of a bitch, he doesn't spare anyone."
Hamuko turned to Fuuka who hadn't uttered a single word up til now. "F-Fuuka, you believe me, right?"
"I think we should avoid violence with Minato-kun," Fuuka said slowly. "Rather, why not talk to him directly?"
Junpei snorted. "Like that will work with that bastard," He turned to face Mitsuru. "I'm with you senpai. Time to beat the truth out of him."
Akihiko looked below at Hamuko who was ready to cry any second now. "Hamuko, if you trust him so much then you shouldn't be worried."
"You know him!" Hamuko shouted back. "If this ends up as a false accusation then Minato will leave SEES, forever. He has a short temper, and you know that. He will not kill us right now, but if you guys torture him then he might not even listen to me!"
"Who gives a fuck?" Junpei replied. "He's beaten me half to death anyway. Besides, we won't let him run free after this."
"Please senpai," Hamuko turned towards Mitsuru pleadingly. "You have to trust him."
"I trust the chairman more than Arisato. He's vile to the core," She turned to Aigis who was observing Minato through the monitor. "Aigis, what do you think?"
"We should eliminate him," Aigis spoke without any hesitation.
"WHAT!?" Hamuko started yelling at the android. "That's out of line, don't touch hi-" She collapsed mid sentence as Mitsuru knocked her out with a chop to her neck. She caught her junior from meeting the ground and rested her against the couch.
"Forgive me," Mitsuru muttered. She faced the rest of her team mates. "He's asleep now, we won't get a a better chance than this." She glanced at Hamuko through the corner of her eye and sighed.
"No time to waste," Ikutsuki said, barely holding back a manipulative grin. "Act swiftly and put an end to his madness."
...
Minato was awaken unceremoniously when ice cold water was splashed over him. The Fool hissed and scowled like a predator, ready to pounce on the dead man who dared do this, but to his surprise; he couldn't move. He looked around, where the hell was he? This wasn't his room at all. He could barely see a thing since the room was pitch black.
"What the..." The blue haired psychopath tried to break free from the ropes but they didn't budge. "Who the hell did this!?" He wanted to summon Death, but he knew that if he did, he would die given the ridiculous amount of fatigue and fever he was suffering from.
Another bucket of cold water was splashed onto Minato and this time, he lost it. "Show your fucking self!" He again tried to power his way out but it was no use.
"Finally came to, Arisato?" That voice, Minato instantly recognized it.
"Mitsuru?" The blue haired boy spoke through barred fangs. "You better have a damn good reason for doing this to me. Tell me what is going on that blasted head of yours!"
A hard punch rocked Minato as he shouted at Mitsuru. Minato hacked out blood and took a long deep breath. His fever was acting up again and the pain doubled because of it.
"Who dares," Minato growled, spitting blood on the ground.
"You've insulted her enough," Akihiko said from the side, giving a soul piercing glare to the tied up persona user. "You bastard, how could you."
Minato was about to retort but the lights came back on. He widened his eyes at about a dozens security guards, all of them wielding some sort of a weapon. In front of them stood Mitsuru, and boy she looked pissed. Minato glanced at his side and Akihiko was glaring at him. Other side? Junpei was flipping him off. From the looks of stuff, he was in a prison.
Minato panted. His head was spinning since he was asleep for barely a few hours. "What the is this about?"
Mitsuru grabbed him by the his collar and slapped him hard across the face. "You crossed the last line Arisato." The deranged blue haired boy momentarily forgot all about his fever and pain, he shouted at the top of his lungs at Mitsuru.
"You bitch, how dare you-" Mitsuru slapped him again, harder than last time.
Minato bit his lip so hard that it started bleeding. He was never this pissed off before. Before he knew it, Mitsuru slapped him again. "Will you talk?"
"What the fuck are you on about? You better hide behind that fucking shell of a man that you call a father," Mitsuru's rage flared and she smashed Minato's head onto the ground. Minato landed on the ground, right on his head with sick impact. His head started to spin and his vision went blurry.
Minato panted again as Mitsuru stood over him. The brutal landing had left Minato with a severe concussion.
"This is where you belong," Junpei started walking towards him. "You fucking monster."
"Why are the hell are you doing this?" Minato hissed. "I was fucking sleeping peacefully."
"How can you say that with a straight face?" Akihiko shook his head. "Why did you attack Ikutsuki-san?" Minato widened his eyes, he couldn't believe it.
"That bastard is still alive?!" Minato asked exasperatedly. "What the fuck is he made of?"
"So you confessed," Mitsuru crossed her arms. "Despite all the hate you've thrown at me, I've ignored it because you are a valuable member of SEES but I will not forgive you for what you did to Ikutsuki-san."
"... Your head is so far up your ass that its not even funny," Mitsuru growled and smashed her heel right onto Minato's forehead, without remorse.
"Grrrrr," Minato felt the blow but he frankly didn't give a fuck. Mitsuru had her foot on his god damn head. The blue haired teenager faced Mitsuru with a very vicious glare.
"You better back away if you know what's good for you, bitch," Minato breathed out slowly. The fact that Mitsuru was still standing after doing something like that was driving him to insanity once again. Something inside Minato snapped again, just like a few hours ago and he let out another hollow laugh, scaring the crap outta the security guards.
Minato looked at Mitsuru through the corner of his eye, an almost demonic smile decorated his face. What the hell was he?
"I admit I didn't fully trust Ikutsuki, but he might be right. You are a demon." Mitsuru barred her teeth and stomped onto Minato's skull again. This time, Minato let out another demented laugh.
"You thick headed bitch, you know you'll die, right?" Minato said between laughs as he licked the blood off his lips with delight.
"What in the hell are you..." Junpei was shaken to the core. Sure Minato was demented and brutal, but this display of insanity was really pushing it, Junpei was sure not even a shadow was this insane.
"I'm not a demon like this bitch over here says," Mitsuru growled and kicked him right in his ribs with her heels. Minato rolled over and let out another haunting laugh. Minato faced Junpei with another one of his slasher smiles. "I'm the devil himself!" Again, his voice shifted into something very demonic and Junpei quickly backed away.
"Senpai, kill him right now!" Junpei pleaded. "Look at his face, he's worse than the shadows."
Minato started struggling again. "Let me free and I'll send you bitches running. You made me mad, really mad. Hamuko or not, I'm gonna rip your goddamn throat off."
"Where's that skank Yukari huh? Is she dealing with her customers right now? What about that robo-bitch? She dead yet?" Minato struggled again. "Fucking let me go!"
"Shut for a second!" Akihiko kicked the junior right in the ribs with so much force that Minato spat out blood. The silver haired boxer lifted Minato up by his collar. "Why did you attack Ikutsuki-san?"
Minato kept that blood thirsty smile on his face and spoke. "You fucking fools, he's playing with you all. I did you all a favor, now kiss my ass."
"He completely lost it," Junpei commented.
Minato turned around to face Junpei. "I don't give a single fuck about you dumb bitches now." Akihiko rocked him with another punch and Minato just laughed, despite his cracked facial muscles. "You all deserve to die, and so do your parents."
"Gggggrrr!" Mitsuru grabbed a hold of her rapier and slashed Minato right on his cheek, purposely stopping mid-way through so that his eye wouldn't get damaged. "Stop insulting us and answer!"
"LET ME OUT!" Minato demanded, his voice made a few security guards gulp and take a step back. "I'll tell you everything, let me ou-GGRRRR!" Minato bit his lip again as Mitsuru dove her rapier through his arm. Blood stained his jacket but Minato was so close to insanity that he ended up laughing again, completely ignoring the pain.
"I know several effective methods of inflicting pain, this was only a taste of things to come," Mitsuru said coldly. "Speak, fool!" She stomped on his open wound hard but it didn't really work, Minato started humming.
Mitsuru started panting, she didn't want to go so far but Minato wasn't taking her seriously at all, and this pissed her off even more. Mitsuru grabbed a gun from a nearby security guard and pointed it at Minato's bloodied arm.
"Speak, or else..." Mitsuru warned.
"Burn my- Go fuck yourself, you piece of shit." Minato responded.
"Fool," Mitsuru bit her lip, clearly not wanting to go this far. "Just tell us why you attacked the chairman."
"You fool, I told you. He was manipulating you, I just taught him a lesson," Minato replied, the pain was building up to a breaking point now and his fever was further worsened by the loss of blood. Minato let out another in-human smirk as he started feeling the effects of the fever, namely nausea and dizziness.
"You expect me to believe that? That man has been helping my father before you were born," Mitsuru growled. "Just admit it already, what are you? why are you here?"
"Hahahaha..." Akihiko was starting to get unnerved and Junpei had lost his mojo long ago. They seriously couldn't wrap their minds around how much of a freak Minato actually was. "Your father is a dead man, bank on that!"
Those words finally sent Mitsuru over the edge and she pulled the trigger, unloading a bullet into his already wounded arm. Minato finally gave out a soul piercing scream that made the rest cover their ears. The bullet ended up burying deep inside his flesh, but midway through the scream, Minato started laughing again.
"The pain..." Minato breathed out. "Go on motherfuckers, try all you want, but you better kill me or else..." Mitsuru grabbed a hold of his blue bangs and lifted him up.
"Are you gonna talk or not!?" She finally snapped, slapping him right on his wounded cheek.
"I fucking told you, Ikutsuki is manipulating you, get your head outta your ass, bitch," Minato insulted once again and Mitsuru tossed him to the floor again. She signaled towards the dozen of security guards.
"Beat him till he answers. Don't hold back until he starts speaking the truth," She ordered, shooting a vicious glare to Minato. "You will speak, you blasted demon!"
Minato laughed and looked around to see guards, loads of them, cracking their knuckles and getting ready for a beatdown. The men in black started kicking and punching Minato over and over again, mercilessly beating him to within an inch of his life.
Mitsuru bit her lip, deep down she really didn't want to do this, but his constant cheap shots and insults regarding her family had sent her over the edge.
Minato let out several screams but he never really said anything else. He was already speaking the truth, what more could he do?
"Minato!" A warm voice called out to him, Minato was suddenly brought back into his senses from the brink of insanity. It was Hamuko, he was sure of it.
"H-Hamuko..." Minato whispered. So she finally came.
"You are not supposed to be here!" That voice belonged to the fucking chairman...
Hamuko broke free from the chairman's hold and dashed ahead towards the cell in which Minato was captured. She ducked below a female security guard and stopped right at the cell.
Nausea and vertigo assaulted Hamuko as she observed the state of Minato. His face was caked in blood and his arm looked nearly non-existent. He was lying in a pool of blood, probably his own.
Minato panted as the pain finally started kicking in. "H-Hamuko..."
"What did they do to you Minato," Hamuko looked at her senpai in disbelief. Mitsuru's lip was bleeding and she looked greatly conflicted.
Two female guards finally caught up with Hamuko and they restrained the redhead. Minato growled, turning to Mitsuru. "This is between you and me, leave her be!" His eyes darted to the side, and he laid his eyes on the chairman who looked delighted as fuck, Minato saw him pass a smile but he was the only one who noticed it.
"Leave Hamuko alone," Minato yelled at the female guards.
"I will not harm her, I promise," Mitsuru spoke. "But you better tell the truth, or this will be the last time you'll see her."
Minato didn't really give a fuck, he already told them the truth and he was in no mood to reiterate his words again, but once he saw Hamuko again, he knew he had to do something, if Ikutsuki planned on killing Hamuko then he wouldn't certainly allow that.
"I told you the fucking truth!" Minato yelled. "That bastard has been toying around and using us as puppets."
The guards started beating the crap out of Minato again upon Ikutsuki's command. "Foolish boy, I think nothing else but the best for my team."
"MINATO!" Hamuko yelled out in utter horror as life slowly began to leave Minato's eyes, he was very close to death.
Junpei and Akihiko were dumbstruck, and the capped teen almost puked.
"Minato, please tell us what happened!" Hamuko begged.
Minato spat out blood again and Mitsuru started to shiver.
"Beat him up again!" Ikutsuki commanded with delight which he was barely able to mask for the others. The guards started beating him up again.
"STOP!" Mitsuru cut in, sending a glare to the chairman who froze. Mitsuru bit her lip, barely able to hold her emotions in check. She was panting hard, she bend down to Minato's near lifeless frame and spoke. "Arisato, speak the truth, I don't want to do this anymore."
"Minato, I beg of you, tell them what happened!" Hamuko begged.
Minato gritted his teeth, he received a vicious kick to his throat and it was really hard for him to speak. "I swear on my love to you Hamuko, I'm telling the truth, that bastard is manipulating you!"
Mitsuru widened her eyes, there was no way Minato would lie by swearing on something so serious, despite all the rage and brutality, his love for Hamuko was always constant, and Mitsuru knew that better than anyone.
"Lies," Ikutsuki shot back. "Do you have proof? No you don't, you vile wretched demon. You're existence itself is a sin!" Ikutsuki mocked the battered teenager with a wide grin.
Hamuko tried to power her way out but the guards held her tight. "Minato, please do something dammit!" She yelled.
"You don't deserve to live, you cold hearted monster!" Ikutsuki insulted him again.
Minato closed his eyes and fought back the pain to think of something. "I should have recorded that sh-" He stopped as the mechanical voice of the console replayed in his mind.
"Recording saved..." His eyes opened wide and he thanked his lucky stars for remembering that. "The console..." Ikutsuki froze. "That console in the command room, it has the recording of that bastard's, go get it now!"
Upon hearing this, Ikutsuki made a run for the door. Mitsuru turned around and yelled. "Get him!" A security ran after the chairman and tackled him to the ground.
Mitsuru was sweating profusely now, was she wrong after all... and did she torture Minato for nothing...
"Why... did he make a run..." Akihiko wondered, placing a hand on his chest. Were they wrong after all?
"Let me go," Ikutsuki yelled in rage, glaring at Mitsuru.
"You won't be going anywhere," Mitsuru breathed out. She signaled to the female guards and they released Hamuko who kicked the door to the cell open and ran towards the nearly dead Minato.
Hamuko cringed, Minato smelt like a mixture of blood, sweat and filth. She still held him up and engulfed him in a tight hug. "Are you okay?" Why the fuck was she even asking that?
Minato smiled somewhat in her embrace, pressing his head against her neck and letting out deep breaths. Mitsuru already ordered a guard to bring her the data from the console, and Ikutsuki was beginning to sweat buckets. Hamuko kissed his cheek, not minding it was caked in blood.
While Minato loved Hamuko to the world's end, something inside him was beginning to even overshadow his love for the redhead; his hatred for SEES was growing even stronger. Minato looked at Mitsuru and the two males from the corner of his eye.
"They will pay..." He swore to himself. "I swear on my life and pride!"
Mitsuru nearly wanted to tear her own hair off. "What have I done..."
So uh, good to see you again! If you made it till here then I congratulate you brave soul, because that was hard to write. Welp, I didn't do all the writing, most of the credit goes to the Sadist Group™. Who is the sadist group? A bunch of freaks obsessed with violence. Seriously though, they help me a ton.
Uh, this fic will be going on another short break, but please do review. The Sadist Group™ likes the reviews and hell, don't be surprised if they pull out another chapter soon WITHOUT me knowing in the middle of my exams. Yup, sadists I tell you.
Anyway, why did Mitsuru beat Minato so badly? It's really simple, just a really twisted snrk, twist of fate. His insanity kicked in at the worst of times and it really did make the rest believe that he was a demon plus SEES does have pent up aggression against him and his insults really didn't help. I'm surprised how dark this fic is getting, and I know Minato and Hamuko confessed, but I'm gonna be an ass about it and you ain't gonna see fluff for a while. Sorry, but I assure you what's going to happen next will knock your socks off. Thank you Sadist Group.
The drift has really started and his hatred is growing stronger than even his love. So yeah, officially Minato is outta SEES. What the hell will happen? Keep reviewing snrk, to find out.
Anyway, thanks for the read and later.
