Hey Guys! Its the BONUS DAY!
The subject of Free! I thought most people would do the whole I feel free when I'm with you thing so I thought I'd do a kidnapping instead haha!
Sousuke Yamazaki was a member of a very successful and rich family. He was sent away from his family and the family business a year ago with no reason from his parents and ended up at Samezuka Academy, rooming with his best friend, the red haired swimmer, Rin Matsuoka. Sousuke kept in contact with his family, receiving cryptic messages in return. One morning before meeting up with his friends he received a threatening text.
We're coming, I suggest you run.
Sousuke checked the ID, unknown. The teen furrowed his brow and read over the message again.
"Come on Sousuke, we'll be late!" Rin called, poking his head around the corner. Sousuke glanced up at his impatient friend, locking his phone.
"Alright, I'm coming." Sousuke called, following his roommate, the text message long forgotten. He received several more text messages throughout the following years, Sousuke overlooking them as a new distraction would appear before him. During the years Sousuke had rekindled his relationship with Haruka Nanase, after their troubled childhood affairs. They had begun dating after high school had ended. Sousuke moved into Haru's house. Sousuke and Rin along with Makoto had joined the local police force. Sousuke had just ended a long shift, cracking his back as he entered his home, sniffing the air smelling the delicious food his boyfriend had cooked.
"I'm home Haru." He called out to him. Haruka was sitting patiently for him, waving slightly as Sousuke entered the room. They talked and discussed their days while eating, Haru announcing he'd bathe. Sousuke was lazing on the sofa when his phone began to buzz. His eyes widened at the caller, accepting the call instantly.
"Mum?"
"Sweetie, I can't talk, I'm here to warn you."
"What are you talking about?" Sousuke frowned.
"Please Sousuke, just listen. Your father has run into some bad business and we're leaving the country. You have to do that same. They're coming for you. They won't stop."
"Mum what's going on?" Sousuke demanded, grasping the phone tightly in hand.
"You have to leave now! Oh no, they're coming."
The phone went dead and Sousuke stared at his phone screen. What just happened? Sousuke was still processing what his mother just told him. He heard shuffled steps and turned to see Haruka wearing one of his work shirts and his hat.
"Haru what are you doing?" Sousuke smirked.
"Trying to seduce you, is it working?" Haru asked, pulling down on the shirt, revealing his muscled shoulder.
"Yes." Sousuke eyed him hungrily, flinging his phone onto the sofa behind him and following the retreating raven haired man into their bedroom.
During the night, Sousuke woke groggily to a urgent grunt.
"Haru, I'm trying to sleep." The boy swatted at the boy beside him, eyes snapped open feeling thin air and hearing a scream rip through the room. "Haru?!"
Sousuke threw himself at the man who was dragging the thrashing Haru to the door. They fell to the floor, the lamp smashing on the ground. Sousuke punched the man in the face causing him to black out. He turned to his boyfriend and grasped his shoulders.
"Are you okay?" Sousuke asked seriously, swiping Haru's fringe from the mans eyes. Haru nodded, shivering, clutching onto Sousuke's shirt.
"Who is that?"
Sousuke looked over to the unconscious man, unable to recognise him. "I have no idea."
Haruka let out a yelp as he was ripped from Sousuke's grasp and yelled his name. Sousuke went to lunge at the other invader but was taken by surprise and was restrained by two other men while the a another placed a piece of cloth over his nose and mouth. He thrashed around, slowly losing strength, vision blurring as he fell to his knees. The last thing Sousuke saw before he lost consciousness was Haruka thrashing around, screaming his name as he was dragged from the room.
Sousuke woke that morning feeling drowsy, he was lying in his bed. Haru wasn't beside him, Sousuke assuming he was making breakfast. The dream he had last night still fresh in his mind. He slung his legs to the side of the bed, his foot landing on something sharp.
"Ouch." Sousuke exclaimed, bringing his foot up, picking the glass from the sole. He glanced down, the lamp smashed on the floor, memories of last night flooding back to him. His eyes exploded from his head and he glanced around the room, a mess from where Haru and he fought the invaders.
"Haru!" Sousuke shouted, running from the room, slamming the front door open, sprinting down the stairs and screaming out Haru's name. He searched everywhere, he pulled at his hair screaming at the sky. Sousuke ran to Rin's apartment and pounded on the door continuously.
"Alright, I'm coming, I'm coming." Rin yelled from the other side, opening the door to find his bestfriend. Rin smiled brightly before becoming serious at the lost look on Sousuke's face.
"What's happened?"
"He's gone." Sousuke whispered, the thought finally coming to grips that he failed to protect his Haru. "He's gone."
"Who's gone? Haru?" Rin asked, pulling his friend into his apartment. Makoto appeared from the kitchen, offering them a drink. Sousuke shook his head and sat on Rin's sofa, head in hands, shuffling his legs up and down.
"What am I going to do?" Sousuke murmured. Makoto sat next to Rin, passing a mug to him.
"What happened?" Rin asked again.
"Haru got kidnapped."
"What?" Makoto piped up, narrowing his eyes at the visitor. "What are you saying?"
"We were sleeping and I woke up to Haru's scream. He was being dragged across the floor, I attacked the man and we were okay. But then others came, I was knocked out and they took Haru." Sousuke explained, his eyes beginning to water. "I woke up this morning and he wasn't here and I've searched everywhere. I have to find him."
"You mean, we have to find him." Rin pointed out, nudging Makoto.
"We need to figure out why Haru would be kidnapped in the first place." Makoto announced, starting the investigation straight away.
"He hasn't got an enemies." Sousuke spoke, "Everyone loves him."
"What about you?" Rin pointed out. "Have you got any enemies?"
"No, at least I don't think so." Sousuke replied, suddenly he was taken back to the afternoon before. "Maybe."
"What is it?" Makoto pushed.
"I got a weird phone call from mum yesterday, saying they're coming and I should leave the country." Sousuke explained. "But what has that got to do with Haru?"
"That's strange, have you gotten anything else weird?" Rin moved over next to his best friend. Sousuke pulled out his phone and showed him several text messages from an unknown number.
"I got threatening messages from these guys, just talking about how I should watch my back and they're watching me."
"You never told anyone about these?" Makoto frowned at him. Sousuke shrugged and shook his head.
"I always got distracted when they came through and I'd forget about them. I thought it was just some punk trying to scare me."
"Well maybe not." Rin prodded his finger on his chin. "Your family own a big company don't they?"
"Yeah it's one of the most successful in Japan."
"Does your family have any enemies?"
"I wouldn't know, they shipped me off years ago. My mother did say that dad had run into bad business." The events clicking together in Sousuke's mind. "You don't think they kidnapped Haru because of that?"
"I think so." Rin nodded, "They've figured out where they put you and could be using you as leverage in a deal."
"But why didn't they take me instead?"
"Either they're using Haru as leverage for you or the kidnappers weren't so bright and took the wrong person."
"Well either way we have to find him!" Sousuke exclaimed. "I won't have Haru paying for my family's mistake."
"Where should we start?" Makoto frowned. "He could be anywhere."
Sousuke's phone began to buzz in Rin's hand and they all glanced at the screen. "It's them."
Rin handed the phone to Sousuke, accepting the video call. A middle aged man came into view, bald, angry and fat.
"Who are you?" Sousuke furrowed his brow darkly.
"I'm the one who determines what happened to your beloved partner. So I suggest you cooperate."
"Let me talk to him." Sousuke demanded. He watched as he moved his body from the camera and Sousuke gasped. Haruka was chained to the wall, arms and legs spread out. A black eye the prominent feature of his face, along with several cuts and bruises on the boys jaw. Haru's head was hanging down, limp. "Haru?"
The said boy snapped his head up at his name and his eyes brightened seeing his boyfriends face before darking and his snapped.
"Where the hell are you?"
"What?" Sousuke looked at him skeptically.
"Hurry up and kick these guys butts." Haruka spoke to the phone, his face a blank wall.
"Haru." Sousuke smirked. "I'm coming."
"Looks like your boyfriend is waiting." The bald man came back into view. "Well you'd better hurry."
Sousuke, Rin and Makoto hurriedly dressed in their uniforms, Sousuke borrowing on of Makoto's and they rushed to the location that the man had texted them.
"Are you sure they're here?" Rin glanced up at the building, the spooky atmosphere causing him to draw closer to his friend. "This is such a trap."
"Well we're going in whatever." Sousuke rolled his eyes at the scared looks on his partners faces. "If there's the slightest change Haru is in there we're going."
Makoto nodded timidly in agreement, following him into the building where his best friend might be.
"Do we actually have a plan?" Rin whispered, gun out, eyeing the hall they were walking down.
"Kill baldy and save Haru."
"That's a vague plan." Rin pointed out, "Can we just think about it for a second?"
Rin was pushed by Sousuke, as his friend whacked the hilt of his gun on the opposite opponent, the man falling to the floor.
"Or maybe not." Rin took Makoto's hand and they headed further into the building They heard murmuring further up and they took out the guards silently, kneeling by the door listening to the conversation.
"Do you think he'll come?"
"He seems to think he will. We'll just have to wait."
"What will we do when he gets here?"
"Kill him and everyone he comes with, but not before we take the life of what he holds dearest."
They heard chains clanking together and low groans coming from the room. The three boys glanced at each other.
"Haru." Makoto breathed. The boys nodded in agreement, counted to three and flew into the room. Rin took the only guard in the room while Sousuke and Makoto raised their guns to the man grasping their friends chin and watched him turn towards them.
"Well look who is it." The man chuckled, chucking Haru's face away. "Come for your precious friend."
"Yes." Makoto aimed at the man. "Let him go."
"I don't think so." The shoved a gun to Haru's head and the three men seized up.
"Hey now, lets not be hasty." Rin convinced, "We can work something out."
"I'll be thrown in prison!" The man shook his head. "If I'm losing my life then so will he."
"You can cooperate in our investigation and you could walk free."
"I don't think you'd be willing to let the man who killed your friend to walk free, do you?"
"Damn right." Sousuke growled, aiming at the mans heart.
"I wouldn't do that boy." The man pushed the gun further upon Haru's temple, Sousuke faltered.
"Sousuke." Haruka called out. Sousuke looked at his boyfriend, pale and broken, teal eyes locking with deep blue. "Shoot him."
Sousuke pressed his trigger and the man fell to the floor, clutching his leg in pain. Rin bounded over, clapping handcuffs on the man and sitting on his back. Sousuke rushed over to Haru and stroked his face.
"Lets get you out of there." Sousuke whispered, taking the key from Rin and unlocking the chains from Haru's ankles and wrists. He fell from the wall into Sousuke's arms and punched the man on the shoulder weakly.
"What took you so long?"
"He got a bit emotional." Rin explained, mocking his best friend, causing a weak smile to appear on raven haired mans broken face.
