A week went by and Akira's uniform failed to show up, and Kurama was getting anxious. "This is just getting weird, poor Akira, why hasn't their uniform come? Must be something wrong with the order..." Kurama said to himself, looking across the lunch room at the pale albino eating by themself. But he noticed something else about the skinny person as well. They seemed to be limping, yet whenever he tried to point it out to his friends they didn't notice.

"I don't think she's limping, its just your imagination."

"Maybe your right, but still, im worried about Akira."

"You don't even know her, no one does."

"Maybe we should talk to them..." Kurama said quietly as the meek person left the lunch room with their tray.

What the group didn't know was that Akira was being beaten, by a particularly big bully every day, one seeming particularly interested in what they called the 'little freak' or on occasion 'princess'. Right after lunch the bully brigade would cart Akira away behind the school and have this big bully, who went by the rather cliche name 'butch', beat the frail body mercilessly. Akira didn't think anyone knew his real name, and found minor amusement in the fact that it was probably a girly name anyway. Butch seemed to get a sick pleasure from beating up on his 'little princess', and that never did any bruise last very long or even show up in some cases. Today was to be no different, just as Akira was finished with lunch the bully brigade returned and carted their little punching bag to their favorite spot.

"You ready for your beating today?" teased a shrimpy little bully who seemed to be a crony of the bigger bullies.

"I wish you would leave me alone."

"Ahhh it'll be over soon enough, little freak" as the bullies started to prepare, Butch who seemed to be 'high ranking' in the group, also being the biggest spoke up.

"Ahhh boss?"

"Yes butch?" the sleezy, and rotten woman leader asked.

"Can I have little princess today? "

"well, sure, I have other things to do, have at it buthy." she said sleezily and motioned the other away.

Akira suddenly got nervous, butch had no classes that he cared about, and Akira feared for a worse beating then ever, but what was about to happen was much worse.

Ohhh, you're a pretty lady aren't you?" he said in a disturbing voice. as he grabbed the pale person by the neck. He pushed the lean body down and against the wall. "Its too bad your tits aint bigger, you'd be really hot then." Akira squirmed as the huge bully started kissing Akira's pale neck , and rubbing the thin legs caught under the massive weight. Akira was frozen in terror, this had never happened before, "what is happening" was the only thought Akira could form. The bully ran his hand first up Akira's shirt and started popping buttons, and then the bully moved lower, down the chest unbuttoning one more button as he slipped his hand into Akira's pants. At that point he froze.

"Uhhh ahhh ohh man thats not... they'll never let me live this down! Ohhhh your done for you little freak!."

Akira in a last ditch effort, jumped up and ran inside, terrified and not paying attention. The scared and mortified Akira ran into the one person, that might be able to help.

Kurama wasn't paying attention, walking to class after lunch, when he looked up he saw a severally distraught Akira running right at him, he didn't have time to move and Akira ran right into him, knocking them both down, when he regained composure he looked up to see Akira's shirt hanging open and he said the only thing he could think of. "You're a guy!" the mortified boy looked up and Kurama could see deep into his emerald green eyes, and could feel his fear.

"Im sorry, im so sorry, I have to.. I have to go, sorry!" he got up and ran before Kurama could say anything else.

Later on, after describing what happened to Yueske and the rest what happened for the fourth time Kurama couldn't help but continue to feel the pure terror he saw in the boys eyes.

"He was just so scared, I don't know why all I could say was "you're a boy" why couldnt I say 'what happened?' 'Or are you ok?'"

"well its over now, maybe we can find where he lives tomorrow and see if we can help." it turned out they wouldn't have to, because just as Keiko said it, Kuwabara saw the panic stricken boy collapsed in an ally way. They ran to his side and saw that not only had he been beaten, hard enough to leave bruises on his skin, but had been slashed at, many time.

"Ohh no, poor guy!" Keiko yelped.

"Lets get him to my house," Kurama said "my moms outta town, but thats o.k., she probably wouldn't mind anyway." they scooped up the bleeding body of Akira and rushed to the Minamono home.
