"Pride can stand a thousand trials, the strong will never fall, but watching stars without you, my soul cried."

------

Night has fallen, replacing the blue sky with endless darkness. Temperature dropped and trees whistled because of the strong wind. It was a dark night. No stars or moon appeared on the sky, just dark clouds hovering above.

Walking up the stairs, Tezuka wanted to go away from all the tension and atmosphere surrounding him. Since the talk he had with Saeki, he started to remember the unnecessary things from the past. The air around him turned heavy and he needed fresh air, urgently.

Opening the balcony door, the cold wind greeted him and so was the darkness. Only a flickering light came from a broken lamp gave him direction to the bench.

What the hell am I doing here? He thought to himself as he lay on the bench, watching the black sky.

I thought I could find a clue here. Anything that relates to Atobe's death but even after all this time, I found nothing.

Closing his eyes, Tezuka tried to relax his mind and body. Though he could be the one….

As the darkness taking over his mind, Tezuka started to drift to sleep when his phone suddenly rang. Reaching to his pocket, he took out his cell phone and answered it.

"Hello?" Said Tezuka sleepily.

"Dr. Tezuka, sorry if I'm disturbing you or anything but have you seen Fuji Syuusuke? We couldn't locate him anywhere."

Fuji… again. "Maybe he escaped like last time. Search the beach or any area around here."

"Yes, we thought about that but when we check the beach or any area that he might go to, we couldn't find him. We found his wallet is still in his room too."

Could it be!? That person is starting his move?

"I understand. I go help find him now."ß

-------

Somewhere inside an isolated building, Fuji Syuusuke slowly regains his consciousness. His head was pounding like crazy and he could feel the cold, rough floor beneath him.

He could also hear a familiar voice talking. "Yes I understand. I contact you immediately when I find him. Don't worry."

"Dr. Takada…?" Groaned Fuji softly. His head hurts so much and he couldn't move any of his body parts.

"So you're awake." Said Dr. Takada as he approached him slowly.

Kneeling in front of Fuji, he whispers softly to his ear, "You think no one will recognize you, didn't you, if you stay hidden inside a small, isolated mental hospital, Yuu's little boyfriend?"

Opening his blue eyes, Fuji stared with shock into Takada's eyes. "How did you…"

Before he could finish his sentence, Dr. Takada started to kick his stomach, followed by punches to his face and body. Unable to protect himself, Fuji could only lay there, helplessly, receiving all the punches. He could feel blood dripping from his mouth and pain especially in his stomach.

"Isn't it great, that feeling of inability to do anything, not even protecting yourself? I made the drug especially to do that. You will still be able to feel the pain but it paralyze your whole body."

Groaning, Fuji lay helplessly on the floor, unable to do anything just like Takada has explained.

"How did you know?" Asked Fuji again, with pain. His mouth was full of blood that made speaking very difficult.

As Dr. Takada watched him with a face of disgust, he kicked him again hard on Fuji's stomach. "Didn't he ever told you about his older brother? I'm Milch, Yuu's older, psychotic brother." Answered Milch with a smile as he grabbed Fuji's head roughly and watched dripping blood from his face.

"You killed my brother and took his money." He said seriously while wiping the blood from his mouth with his thumb.

"I didn't kill him, the other gang did." Said Fuji as he coughs blood between each word.

Losing his patience, Milch bang Fuji's head on the floor while putting pressure on it. "I don't care whether you kill him or not, he was a useless brother anyway. I want that money!" Explained him as he puts more pressure on Fuji's head. "I want that money he got from selling all those drugs and I know you have it."

Trapped inside the pain, Fuji could hardly stay conscious as he tried to understand the situation. Before he could give any answer, Milch grabbed his hair roughly and pulled him to a bench. Wincing in pain, Fuji could feel his body being slam into the hard bench.

"I thought you were smart. Genius. But I guess I was wrong." Said Milch with disappointment in his tone. "Where do you think he got all the drugs from? Me! I stole the hospital's supply for him but he betrays me. He took all the money for himself and fled while I had to run away from the police. Useless little shit! He deserves to die!"

As Milch released his anger, he sent a couple of punches to Fuji before walking to a table, located not far from them. On that table, Fuji could vaguely sees needles and drugs scattered.

"You're going to be my new test dummy." Said Milch calmly as he filled the needles with an unknown solution. "Don't you ever wonder why the patients there sometimes die for an unknown reason? Hmm Fuji?"

"You…" Groaned Fuji. His brain was blank and filled only with pain although he starts to regained sensation of his fingers.

"Well I try not to kill any of them. It creates bad image for me. Although sometimes, shit just happens." Explained Milch as he taps the needless. "Ready for your medication?"

Milch then inject the unknown solution to Fuji's pale arms. "Don't worry, this one won't kill you. It only leaves a burning sensation to your heart but not enough to actually kill you."

As the liquid travels inside Fuji's body, his heart began to pump faster and he could feel that burning sensation. Crying in pain, Fuji feels tears rolling from his eyes and a sinister smile from Milch.

"Now tell me where the money is or I shall inject you with something lethal." Threaten Milch as he calmly watched his prey writhing in pain when suddenly Fuji's hand hit him in the face.

It wasn't a strong punch but enough to send Milch a few steps back. The paralyze drug's effect from before has weaken, especially since the burning sensation knock some senses to Fuji.

Trying to stand up, Fuji tried to get off the bench, away from Milch but before long, he feels the pain of being thrown off to the floor.

"You little shit." Said Milch angrily. "I guess my brother makes you strong by doing this too huh. Kicking, punching, little sex now and then."

Walking closer to Fuji, Milch then kneeled down and grabbed Fuji's face roughly. "I wonder where did he touch you? Here? Or maybe here?" Asked Milch as he touched Fuji's groin hard, making him cried in pain. "What is it like, being raped by my brother? He told me that. How he found a new slave, and a pretty one in fact. I guess his taste is not bad after all."

Before Fuji could do anything, Milch throws him again to the wall before going back to the table. "Now, where do I put that paralyze drug?" Said Milch as he scrambled the table. "Found it."

Milch then walks back to Fuji, holding the needles in front of his face so Fuji could see it. "Too bad I'm not into that." Said Milch as he grabbed Fuji's bruised arms to inject the needles but before he could do that, a gunshot was heard.

Standing behind Milch, Fuji could see Tezuka holding a gun calmly. The needles then dropped to the floor and so it Milch. Fuji could see blood coming out of his body.

"Don't worry. I didn't kill him." Said Tezuka calmly as he approached the wounded Milch.

Pointing the gun to Milch's face, Tezuka asked calmly though with serious tone. "Do you know anything about Atobe Keigo? Do you have any involvement to his death?"

Groaning in pain, Milch didn't said anything, resulting in another shot to his leg.

Ignoring the shouting of his former coworker, Tezuka keeps pointing the gun to his face. "Answer me or I keep doing this."

"I don't know anything." Answered Milch as he whimpers in pain. "Who the hell are you!!??"

"Not your business." Replied Tezuka as he knocks Milch with his gun, making him faint. Tezuka then put the gun safely and walks back to Fuji, checking on him.

"Are you ok?" Asked Tezuka although he knew Fuji has heavy injuries. "Don't worry, the police will be here shortly. Just stay still." As he touches Fuji's head to check on his injuries, Fuji's hand grabs his shirt. "Who are you?"

"I explain it later. Now we have to treat your injury." Replied Tezuka as he softly removes Fuji's hand from his shirt while caressing his head. "Fuji, do you by any chance…" But before Tezuka could finish, Fuji injected him with the paralyze drug.

"Fuji!?"

"I'm sorry but I have to go." Said Fuji smiling before he grabs Tezuka and kissed him. "Don't worry, it won't kill you." Whispered Fuji before Tezuka falls towards him.

"I like you." Said Fuji for the last time before Tezuka lose consciousness and fall into the darkness.

Note:

- drugs idea from Dexter, man I love that book and drama

- Milch is from Nodame Cantabile, though I choose it because I don't know what other name to use (Milch is a nice person in Nodame so I'm just using the name lol). At first I was thinking of Nill but that's an ugly name.

- Yuu from nothing, though I was thinking about Reiko Shimizu's work such as Kaguya hime and Moon Child.

- just for the record… Tezuka won't die hahahaha.

- also quote up there from Des'ree Kissing you.
