Out of All People
Written By: RedFireHead41
Yuki felt the guilt after every step he took. The sound of the wooden floors creaking underneath sounded if they were haunting his movements until he reached his destination. Tears wanted to force their way out of his silver orbs, but he wouldn't let them, he was doing this for Kyou, to keep him safe. Nothing would stop him from protecting his new love, even if that meant being Akito's personal toy.
Obey him, and Kyou is safe. That's all the reason Yuki needed to keep going.
When he reached the Sohma head's door and knocked, the poisonous voice purred, "Is that you Yuki?"
Yuki felt last weeks pain trample over his body, but the lingering touch of Kyou's lips against his battered skin caused the pain to sooth away. Making his voice become clear and strong, he answered back, "Yes."
"Come in..."
Sliding the door open and closing it behind as he entered, Yuki spotted his 'master' leaning against the wall of the large window, petting a small bluebird upon his two fingers. Akito snickered as the boy hopped closer to him with the aid of his crutches. "You won't be needed those my beauty, set them aside the wall where I can't see them."
Yuki eyed cautiously at Akito, "I only set them down when I'm sitting and don't need them. And right now, I do need them."
Akito was up in a flash and slapped the boy across the face. The blue bird chirped in fright and escaped from the other hand of Akito while Yuki let his face still stare at the ground. The Sohma head glared deadly at his relative and hissed, "You will obey me or be punished, severely."
The rat started to feel his fear rising as that venom slipped from Akito's mouth, and began to shiver violently. His thoughts strayed to his lover, silently praying that he would come though he already knew the answer to that. Suddenly his chin was whipped up and hard cold lips pressed fiercely against his own, sharp fang-like teeth biting into his soft skin. Yuki winced and tried to struggle away, but his injured foot and Akito holding him possessively tight wouldn't allow it. The Sohma head kicked the crutches aside, crushing Yuki against his body the moment the boy's balance went astray.
"A-akito!" Yuki whimpered trying to pry himself out of the strong grip. Akito smirked and pushed Yuki to the ground, making the rough hit strike the boy's back hard. Yuki cried in pain.
"Master Akito to you. If you dis-honor me again, your body will be crying out so much that it will never forget the feeling of it's sting."
"N-no..." Yuki whined silently, pulling himself onto the back of his elbows. Just then, Akito was over him and traced his tongue from the bottom of the boy's neck all the to the tip of his eye, feeling Yuki continuously shivering as he enjoyed himself.
"You never order me to do anything Yuki..." Akito whispered into Yuki's ear as he traced his fingers up the boy's throat, "You're mine."
Yuki couldn't take it, he was more scared than ever before. All he wanted was Kyou; Kyou coming to rescue him and hold him as if he was an injured child. Telling him that everything was alright and that he was safe...that he would protect him.
"This night will never leave your mind...it will forever haunt you...reminding you that you can never escape me, you'll always be mine. My toy..."
Guilt, sadness, and above all else, fear shook Yuki's body as Akito continued to torture him. The weight slammed down onto him and something below was hard against his stomach, Yuki wanted to cry.
"Now, now my toy...no crying. If you do you'll be punished..." Akito licked over Yuki's lips and forced his tongue to dig deep into the hot mouth, completely devouring the curves inside. Yuki tried to close his mouth, but the superior wouldn't let him as he continued to taste all around his curves and silkness. Kyou please...please come to me...please...please!
Akito pulled back suddenly and glared down at the frightened teen beneath him. After licking his own lips thoroughly, he sneered down with another hiss.
"Who have you been with rat! Tell me now! Tell me!"
"Akito I-I don't know what you're talk–"
Akito slammed his foot into Yuki's stomach making the boy cough harshly and clench his stomach. A line of blood trickled down the corner of his lips.
"I taste someone else in you and I know what I say is true!" Akito's tone grew louder and more fierce as he kicked Yuki once again, this time on the side of his head. Yuki cried out in pain as he held his wounded skin, tears streaming from his eyes.
"Who have you been with!" he roared, eyes flaring.
More tears spilled from the silver eyes and Yuki never answered. He had to get away, he had to get away before Kyou–"AH!"
Akito crushed his foot into Yuki's side making the injured boy roll onto his back, "Who have you been with?"
"N-noone Akito..." Yuki whimpered hoarsely, "...I-I've been with no...one..."
"Liar!" he hissed back, kicking Yuki's side again.
More and more tears spilled from the innocent boy's eyes as he felt the pain skim throughout his body. His head felt dizzy and weak, his eyes were dull and lifeless. Was this it?
Was this how he was going to die?
"How dare you do this to me Yuki..." Akito continued skratching his nails together as if he was sharpening them. Yuki suddenly felt the strength fill up his head once more, and he lifted up his eyes with pure innocence glittering in them saying quietly, "I haven't been w-with anyone...I belong to you...o-only to you...I swear..."
That caused the black-haired Sohma to quell his anger for a moment as he registered Yuki's form. He eyed Yuki suspiciously before kneeling and gently pulling the boy into his arms, stroking the half damp hair. Slowly, he began to rock back and forth, trying to make his toy feel at peace. But Yuki wasn't at peace at all...he felt like he was in hell. His relative's voice cut through the rasp air with more sheer posion that he has ever heard before.
"Yes my beauty...only me...you'd never disobey me, now would you?"
Yuki cried into the shoulder he dispised the most, wishing that Kyou was there instead. He mewled helplessly and answered, "I would never...disobey y-you..."
"Disobey who?" Akito sneered.
Choking out sobs and shaking viciously, Yuki let himself be controlled by Akito's will. He let one more tear fall before replying as he thought of the safety of his love.
"I would never disobey you...master Akito..."
Akito chuckled and sniffed down the crook of the boy's neck, filling his nose with the delicate scent, "Good boy..."
Yuki shivered again and felt his body completely collapse against the firm cold one, seeing an image of his love gazing down upon him as darkness engulfed his mind. As long as Kyou is safe...I don't care how much pain I receive. I'll take it without regret...
oOoOoOoOoOo
Hatori finished looking over Kyou's reddened hand and wrapped a more comfortable cloth after he finished. Saying that it should be fully healed in another week, Kyou was excused and the cat exited the room.
Damn...Hatori didn't have to take so freaking long by checking over my hand. Geeze, talk about being obsessed with your job. Kyou rolled his eyes to his mental question and strolled out of the building where Hatori lived and into the night. Several lampposts were lit along the pathway leading to the main path towards the gates, and the wind was gently caressing against his body. That's when he noticed something. Perking up his catlike ears he listened carefully to the direction of the wood. He could feel fear blowing through it's current.
"Kyou?"
Kyou jerked around and held up his fists, steaming. He was taken aback to see Haru standing there, his head cocked to the side as always.
"Oh, Haru. What do you want?"
The cow closed his eyes and stood there in silence, not answering Kyou's question. Silence was now beginning to piss the said-cat off.
"Dammit Haru, what is it!"
Haru opened his eyes again, "Wondering why you're here and asking you if you've seen Yuki today."
With the mention of Yuki's name, and last night's 'talk' ringing in his mind, you's angry behavior stopped. He looked to the side, immediately noticing that Akito's chambers were right there. Kyou snarled.
"Kyou?"
The cat looked back at Haru seriously, and answered, "Only at school, why?"
"I wanted to see my little Yuki that's all. Didn't get the chance to say hello at school, so I figured he was here since he always came on Thursdays."
"He came every Thursday?"
"Yeah."
...so he was in pain all the time, dammit I should've noticed it sooner. I'm such an ass...
"Well, see ya later. I'm headin' inside."
"Yeah, later."
With that, Haru walked passed Kyou and disappeared down a narrow pathway leading to his home. Kyou turned to look at Akito's chambers again and decided that he should look inside. Making sure no one was around, he crept along the side of the house and crawled under the window. He lifted his head up and instantly scanned the room for any trace of Akito. Finding none, he hopped inside and quietly moved into the shadows. Kyou peered around the dark room. You better not be in here... Suddenly, a soft cry sounded in the air and Kyou snapped his head to the side and almost cried at the sight. Yuki laid helplessly on the ground, legs tucked against his chest and arms laying motionless ahead of him. Stripes of moonlight glittered across his naked skin, and large gashes and bruises were swelling across his entire body.
"No!" Kyou's voice was quiet, but anyone could've heard the fright and love pour from just one word. The cat ran to his lover's side and he gently pulled the injured body into his arms, feeling the shaking speed up as he continued the gesture.
"Shh, Yuki it's me," Kyou soothed tracing his finger across the silky skin, "It's Kyou, I'm here..."
New tears sprayed from the boy's weary eyes that refused to open. Though his body was numb and useless, Yuki could feel that it was really his love holding him this time and not Akito's crushing embraces. He melted instantly into the cat's warmth and mewed softly as choked sobs escaped his mouth, "...y-you...came..."
"And I'm going to get you out of here." Kyou rested Yuki's back against the end of his knee and slipped off his light jacket, covering Yuki's cold body with it's warmth. Making sure it was wrapped tight around his lower hips and across his stomach, Kyou lifted him into his arms. He silently walked back to the window, and after checking the outside for any sign of movement, slipped out the window and stalked towards the gate.
"...k-kyou..." The cat stopped and pulled Yuki's chin up, so he could get a glimpse of those precious eyes. His heart cried when he gazed over the battered face. His eyes were closed and dry tears and blood trickled over his cheeks. A black bruise stained his forehead, and his lips were swollen from bite marks and other things Kyou did not wish to know.
"I love you Yuki," Kyou whispered placing a light kiss upon the boy's temple. Yuki surprisingly tried to lean more towards him, but the pain shooting throughout his body protested him to stop.
"I'll protect you, you're safe."
After feeling Yuki collapse fully into his body, Kyou took off under the shadows, passing through the main gates undetected and running for Shigure's house, Yuki cradled safely in his arms.

listen to the great word;

A/N: Wow, I'm very sorry for the late update. School started August 4th and it has been hectic for me to get all of my need supplies for it and get everything in order. Pain in my arse let me tell you. Anyway, I wanted Yuki to go see Akito because I wanted to show that he really wanted to protect Kyou even if that meant going against his promise. And of course, I made it to where Kyou sort-of had this feeling that Yuki was actually there and made the whole chapter come out. So yup, I'll try to update much more faster than last time, but it might take long, for school is a hassle and a pain in the beginning. Thanks for all the reviews everybody!
