Not edited in the slightest...sorry...hopefully it's still okay. Anyway, here you go. Uh there is implied rape in this chapter but nothing graphic or anything really at all...just basically suggests that rape occurred.

Comments are appreciated.

I might re-write this later and make Akashi more threatening...he seems a bit soft right now. eh I don't even know.

"Is Kurokocchi going to die?" Kise asked as the three waited in the waiting room.

"Aka-chin wouldn't leave if Kuro-chin was going to die."

"You don't know that for sure. Damn bastard." Aomine growled. Kise buried his face in Aomine's shirt.

"Please stop Daikicchi. Akashicchi has his reasons."

Aomine wrapped his arms around Kise and apologized and the group went silent.

In Kuroko's mind~

"It's time to play again cutie."

Kuroko's eyes were covered. He couldn't see the speaker, but he knew who he was. The one called boss.

"Aww look, I think he's afraid." It was a different voice this time.

"You can't escape." Another voice whispered.

"Just enjoy."

"You know you like it when we all come to play."

"Doesn't this feel good?"

"That's right."

"What a good boy."

"Oh no. Not yet."

"Ha. You bitch!"

"We're losing him!" Midorima shouted. "I need the paddles now!"

"Yes sir!" A nurse answered and appeared with two paddles. Midorima took them, rubbed them together and shouted out a number.

"Clear!" He shouted and pressed down. "Damn it!" There was no response. He yelled another number.

"Clear!"

In Kuroko's mind~

"You piece of shit! Can't you do anything right!" A man shouted and kicked Kuroko in the side. He grabbed his hair and shook him. Kuroko couldn't help it. The vomit rose in his throat and spilled onto the man's shirt.

"You….YOU'RE GOING TO PAY FOR THAT!" The man threw him against the wall before climbing on top and pinning him down. Blow after blow connected with his face and chest as he struggled to breathe through his broken nose. Just when he thought death would claim him, the familiar sensation of his boxers being ripped off confronted him."

"CLEAR!" Midorima shouted again and looked at the monitor. A small beep and the flat line was replaced with a bumpy one indicating Kuroko's heart was beating again. He sighed a breath of relief and looked down at the unconscious boys face.

"You can't die yet. Not on my table damn it." He murmured only loud enough for him and the other doctor in the room, Takao, to hear. "Akashi will have my head if you don't make it out of here."

"Shin-chan?" Takao asked curiously.

"Never mind. Hurry up. I'm almost done with this one."

It took over an hour for the surgery to finish. Midorima walked over to Kise, Aomine, and Murasakibara who were still in the waiting room. The other doctor from the surgery joined and they both took a seat.

"How's Tetsu?" Aomine asked first.

"He's okay of course!" Midorima responded, slightly offended that Aomine would even consider him failing to keep their phantom alive.

"Well it just took so long….." Kise added in an attempt to defend Aomine from Midorima's frightening glare. It didn't work.

"We lost him once." Takao spoke up. Everyone but Midorima had been too focused on Kuroko's condition to notice him.

"Is that you Takao?" Aomine asked, since he couldn't quite tell with all the surgical gear. Takao nodded.

"Hey."

"You helped with Kurokocchi too?"

"Mmhmm. He's going to be okay. He's in a coma, but he should be okay. The bullets missed any major organs." Takao replied reassuringly.

"Where is Akashi? I thought he would want to be here." Midorima looked around the room surprised at the red heads absence.

"He's dealing with Haizaki." Aomine informed, receiving an eye brow twitch from the greenette.

"Haizaki? Don't tell me…"

"You didn't see him Mido-chin?"

"I was focused on my patient."

"It was Haizaki." Aomine confirmed Midorima's question.

"Why?"

"Hell if we know. Damn chief made some deal and handed Haizaki over to Akashi's men." Aomine growled, still pissed at the whole situation. He really wanted a go at that asshole.

"Daikicchi…Takaocchi is here." Kise whispered in warning.

"Shut up Ryota. The whole god damn world knows!"

"Knows what?" Takao asked innocently.

"Whatever. Can we see Tetsu? I want to make sure you didn't do something crazy to him."

"Do I look like a mad scientist Aomine? Yes you can see him."

"Humph. Ryota, Murasakibara, let's go."

"We have to report to Aka-chin first or Aka-chin will get really mad." Murasakibara reminded them as he stood.

"Hai, hai." Aomine pulled out his phone and sent a quick text to Akashi as they followed Midorima to the post-surgery wing.

[To: Akashi

From: Daiki

Message: Tetsu's okay. The bullets didn't hit any major organs. He's in a coma right now but Takao and Midorima said he should come out of it soon. Don't forget to give Haizaki a few punches for us too!]

Akashi glanced at the incoming text and smiled. Tetsuya was okay.

He turned back around to face Haizaki who was tied to a chair in the middle of a mostly empty warehouse and looking worse for wear. His amber eye gleamed dangerously.

"Looks like your plan failed, Haizaki Shogo." Akashi spat the name laced with every ounce of venom he could muster. He grabbed a chair and sat across from the captive. "I think it's time you start talking, don't you." He grinned mischievously. Haizaki spat, although he wasn't daring enough to spit in Akashi's face or even at his feet.

"It's like I keep telling you bastards. I don't know anything." Haizaki grinned, only to be punched again by one of Akashi's men.

"How about we stop with the lies Shogo. You're working for Okazaki."

"I don't work for nobody!"

Akashi nodded and one of his men punched Haizaki again.

"He offered me a deal." Haizaki spat. "You got no one to blame but yourself Akashi. You and your bastard father brought this on!"

Akashi's glare was murderous as he stood and punched Haizaki in the gut causing the latter to cough up blood. Haizaki laughed maniacly.

"The great Akashi Seijuro couldn't even save his lover from a little ol Okazaki!" The silver haired man taunted earning himself a knife in his shoulder. He didn't scream. He met Akashi's cold mismatched eyes with a grin.

"Did I hit a sensitive spot, Sei-jur-o." Haizaki hissed. Akashi twisted the knife in his shoulder.

"Where is Okazaki?" The red head demanded.

"I don't know." Haizaki admitted. The knife in his shoulder was removed only to be shoved into his thigh. This time he let out a small shriek. "I'm tellin the truth."

"Hmmm?" Akashi hummed dangerously and revealed another knife which he pierced Haizakis other shoulder with.

"He just hired me to shoot Tetsuya! I never met him face to face, just his goons."

"Oh really?" Akashi chuckled and pulled the knife from Haizakis thigh place it in the other thigh. "You better keep talking if you don't want the next one to be in your throat!"

"If you put it in my throat I can't talk anymore." Haizaki grinned with a last shred of defiance. His confidence was stripped away quickly as Akashi's face moved within inches of his own.

"Talk!"

"Okay okay. It's like I said. I never met him. I don't know where he is."

"But you do know something." Akashi glared as he pulled back and removed both knives. Haizaki nodded.

"Y…yeah. He said you would take me, but he would get me out….as soon as Tetsuya was confirmed dead…he would kill you."
