Chapter 3: Chapter 3

chapter 3

Gon was asleep after the incident two days prior. He had been permitted to rest and no one not even the doctor had come to see him. He was hyper attentive though scared of even the rats. Any move and sound made caused him to freak out as he expected to be beat or electrocuted. But instead of being tortured he had his arms untied. They were still dislocated but he was happy to at least see them. Examining them they were swollen and blue from being dislocated for so long.

He also hadn't been hung back up since the incident. But he didn't try to move around much. He was even more uneasy since they were leaving him alone. Staring at the chains on his feet he tried to break them with his nen. But they just absorbed it.

He signed softly and mumbled. "I just want to disappear." He thought about it then using Zetsu he faded out and even though He was still there he felt better about not having a presence needing to feel in some kind of control.

But no matter how much he faded. He remained crammed into the small corner that was painted with his own blood. His knees were pulled up to his chest as he watched the door the slightest sound sending him into a panic attack. He was freaking out that Silva was gonna come and punish him deeming his head beating wasn't enough.

After an undetermined amount of time passed he heard something and knew someone was coming down to his room and with each step it sent Gon spiraling closer to losing it again. For some reason he couldn't control himself any longer around them. His steely nerves had been broken down. He felt his body heat up as his fear filled his eyes. No longer feeling like fighting he just stayed faded into the background.

20 minutes prior -

illumi approached Silva with a generous proposition. "I saw what happened a few days ago father. I wanted to ask, ``What is your goal with young Gon?"

Silva smiled though not obligated to answer, did so anyways. " He's entertaining. He's nothing like anyone I've seen before."

Illumi nodded and smiled. "So what do you want to keep him? What is it you want? To control him?"

Silva only smiled, causing his son to nod. " I see I think I understand. Then allow me to make a proposition. "

Silva's face changed to curiosity. "We want to control alluka. I want to control Killua and you want to control Gon then how about you take Him and I can use him to get Killua and alluka back into our grasp. "

Silva took long moments before nodding. "Deal then I'll take Gon and sculpt him from this day forward. But you can't let Killua find out until we have full control over everything Gon does.

illumi bowed and left to go prolong Killua's search for gon.

Silva had approached Gon's cell. The moment Gon felt who it was his heart sank. He swallowed hard and backed up into the corner of the room tighter.

when the cell door opened and Gon's body felt limp as fear over took him again. He didn't speak but with each of silva's steps Gon flinched and closed his eyes wishing himself away.

Silva finally spoke after what felt like an eternity. Within a few feet from Gon. "Stand!" He demanded the instruction getting the desired response the shaky and jumpy Gon forced himself up using the wall as a brace.

With his shirt torn to pieces you could now see his ribs having been trapped for almost 3 months now he was skin and bones covered in scabs and endless dark circles of bruises. His legs rubbed raw and punctured from the shackles. Blood endlessly dribbling with each movement gon made.

"lift your arms!" Stated Silva who kept getting the desired response from Gon. Gon's dislocated arms and fingers were hard to move but he managed it out of sheer will not to be beat.

His heart raced as he wanted to ask what it was Silva was doing but he didn't dare open his mouth.

"So you broke a bowl two days ago." Said silva closely watching Gon's golden eyes as fear ran down his spine. He saw Gon want to speak but as soon as He opened his mouth. Gon clamped it shut again swallowing hard as he shook his weak arms still out in front of him.

Silva smiled as Gon had taken their last lesson to heart and learned not to speak. He patted Gon's head gently. "Don't worry I saw what you did to repent for your crimes. I came to say your forgiven." Gon wasn't expecting it and his eyes betrayed him causing him to glance up for an instant.

He swallowed tightly still without a word. He stood there as Silva spoke. " However... " with the however Gon's knees buckled and he almost fell. But he caught himself forcing himself back up. "You also kept throwing up the food and I have not forgiven that." The moment the words left his lips Gon knew something was gonna happen.

"The cook went out of his way to make such a worthless worm like you food. To repay his kindness you threw it up. " stated Silva coldly crowing his arms as Gon looked back down. He was biting his lip causing blood to trickle down his chin. He was clearly having a panic attack again but was trying to make it less obvious.

" To make amends your going to eat until I say stop. " smiled Silva. The punishment unclear until Silva broke the bones in Gon's smallest finger. Gon squealed and whined trying to pull his hand away. Silva growled and punched Him in the gut. "Don't you move! You will be broken every time you move away from your food or you throw up." Grinned Silva getting an abrupt nod from Gon who was finally allowed to fall back tears rolling down his face mixing with the blood on his lip.

Silva then gave the signal and a 30 course meal was brought in and placed in front of the starving Gon. He looked up slightly seeing if he should begin. He sought Silva's approval and as soon as it was given Gon started eating. He spent 4 hours eating and he was hurting. His stomach was distended and he felt sick and he was only through about an 8th of the meal when tears streamed as he continued looking at Silva for the word to stop but it never came.

He eventually got sick and threw up multiple times losing 3 fingers at first. Gon cried out but went back to eating as much as he could again only to throw up again. Getting 5 fingers broken this time. Pausing he gave a pleasing glance towards Silva but soon went back. Eating more but after two more bites he did it again this time 7 times losing both bones in both lower arms his last 2 fingers his upper bones in his left arm.

Gon was now in shambles crying he slumped over the food and kept going the process continued until Gon couldn't move and every bone in his outer limbs his shoulders and his ribs were so broken he needed medical help to put them back together. He swallowed his tears as he had collapsed in the food. Silva After a few more moments of watching Gon spoke. "I think you've suffered enough today. How about we just talk. So how long do you think you've been trapped for?"

Gon just laid there not sure if he should answer or not. Silva saw the hesitation to speak and smiled. "You may speak clearly."

"T-two months sir." Answered Gon quickly.

" And do you think Killua is on his way to save you? " asked Silva questioningly.

Gon spoke again. "N-no sir..."

Silva now raised a brow. " but he's your friend why not? "

Gon mumbled thinking about Killua and his sister before carefully answering. "well sir I think that he has more important things to do. And well he doesn't know where I am he may have noticed something is wrong but...He doesn't have any reason to think I'm in trouble... " the words out loud caused Him to realize how alone he was and this was the moment Silva was waiting for.

"That's right you're all alone nothing more than a new tool to be used as we see fit. So why fight it." Gon's body pulsed slightly as he mumbled. " I refuse to give you what you want... " he froze the moment the words left his lips and Silva stood over him in an instant. Tears of fear rolled as his voice became shallow and distant. "I'm s-sorry s-s..." " call me master from now on. You will learn true despair from this day forward." smiled Silva slugging Gon in the stomach before hanging him back up.
