It's been three days now and everything seemed to be back to the way it was before. Kakuzu didn't hint on having sex again, no more sleeping outside for the time being, and I was in a better mood since our previous encounter with those two.
We just came to a fork in the road when we saw two stagecoaches pulled by horses parked next to one side. They looked pretty cool but I didn't know there were carriages around these parts. Kakuzu stopped walking and glared menacingly at them. I stood next to him and wondered why he looked so pissed until someone came out of one…Yutaka.
I tensed and slowly scooted backwards from seeing the man who defiled me and caused me so much pain. Yutaka approached us, along with a few other bodyguards, including Keizo. "Greetings Kakuzu," he then looked at me with an evil grin, "Hello my little doll." I just glared and didn't utter a sound.
"I see your injuries are healed now, too bad you didn't succumb from them." "I am still sore about our little encounter last time we met and I won't die that easily by the likes of you." Kakuzu took a step forward, "You won't be so lucky this time." Yutaka raised a hand, "Please, let's handle this without brute force and in more of a discreet manner between two fellow businessmen."
Kakuzu glanced around before muttering, "Fine. If I may ask though, what's with the precautions? Are you that afraid of me?" What's Kakuzu talking about? Yutaka smirked, "Oh, just in case." I finally noticed what he was talking about; we were surrounded by at least forty shinobi. "Don't mind them, they won't attack unless I say so; I'm here to offer you a deal for her."
Yutaka beckoned over a servant, who came with two briefcases and opened them up to reveal a LOT of money, Kakuzu's weakness. "This'll cover the costs of any financial damage you've spent thus far, including her purchase price, clothing, food, bounty, and some extra for your troubles. I'm sure this'll be enough compensation for you. No woman should be worth the trouble to deal with right?"
I warily glanced at Kakuzu, who remained silent and stared at the money. He's not actually considering it. "Do we have a deal Kakuzu or not?" He looked so deep in thought and didn't say anything at all until a few minutes passed, "Fine, she's of no use to me anymore anyway."
I felt like my heart was just pierced straight through hearing those horrific words and I stared questionably at him, but he just averted his eyes. Maybe I misheard him; that has to be it.
"Excellent! That is perfectly understandable, at some point in time, they do outlive their usefulness. Keizo, go take her to the carriage." I murmured hopefully, "Kakuzu, you didn't really mean that right?" Keizo got closer and my breathing started to quicken, "Please tell me you didn't mean it." Still no answer as Keizo gripped my arm and started to drag me away.
"Come along pet." Kakuzu stood there motionless without lifting a finger to help me and my emotions just exploded. I struggled with all my might to get away, "PLEASE DON'T LET THEM TAKE ME AWAY KAKUZU!" Keizo had a somewhat time trying to get me to be still, "Stop yelling in my ear!"
"I PROMISE I WON'T COMPLAIN ANYMORE OR TALK BACK!" Keizo tried to cover my mouth but I managed to bite his finger, "DAMN BITCH!" He slapped me across the face and that's all it took to get me in that inescapable hold.
My cheek throbbed and I was at the door of the carriage now. 'PLEASE KAKUZU, I WANT TO BE WITH YOU!" The only reaction I could see on Kakuzu's face was a twitch in the eye, but he didn't budge and let Keizo shove me in the carriage. "Stop fucking moving!" Mr. Ishida was in here and muttered, "Just give her a tranquilizer Keizo.
Keizo glared at him grumbling, "Does it look like I fucking carry one with me all the time?" Yutaka had followed and poked his head in the door, "Not cooperating is she?" "What do you fucking think?" Yutaka pulled out a vile and handed it to Keizo, "Give her some of that and you won't have any more trouble with her for another hour."
Yutaka stepped back and shut the door, "Oh and Keizo, do NOT try anything with her understand?" I saw Keizo roll his eyes, "Alright." Mr. Ishida tapped the roof, "Go on driver." The carriage started to move and I almost got hold of the door handle when I felt a sharp pain in my neck. I let out a small cry and my body went limp...not again.
"That's fucking better." Keizo positioned me to where I was leaning against his chest with an evil grin on his face. He started to glide a hand inside my kimono and let some tears fall when he fondled a nipple, "Would you please not do that in my presence Keizo!" "Why?"
"It's indecent and you can wait until we get to Mr. Yutaka's place. I know you're going to get back at her whether he told you to or not." He removed his hand, "Fine, it'll be more fun there anyway."
I don't know how long I rode in here, but I ended up back in that same blank stupor I had before without a thought on my mind until we finally came to a stop and arrived at the destination. I could move again by this point, which shows the ride was an hour.
Keizo pulled me out and led me into this huge mansion by the arm. I didn't bother to resist anymore, there was no point. He led me into a bedroom and roughly pushed me on the bed before straddling me, "Are you ready my pet?"
I averted my eyes and didn't say anything. "I'll take that as a yes." He spread the top part of my kimono apart and attacked my neck with rough bites and sucks. I grimaced from his unwanted exploit and did nothing, "No resisting this time? Now you're being a good girl pet." He continued his deed and was just about to travel lower when he popped up his head, "Damn it! I knew I forgot something."
He took hold of my face to make me look at him, "I have a quick errand to do so I'll be right back to finish what I started." He got off me, "Just so you'll know, there's no escaping this room." He shut the door and I heard a click; naturally I'd be locked in. I pulled my kimono back to where it's supposed to be and slowly got up.
I can't go through another rape again, I just can't! I shuffled to the bathroom, grabbed a razor, and sank down on the floor; this is the only way for me to be set free. It's not like it matters anymore, Kakuzu doesn't want me and no one will miss me anyway. I hesitantly pressed the blade against my wrist knowing it was going to hurt, but at least there won't be any more pain after it's over.
A loud bang came from outside, which made me jump and the blade dug in deeper than I intended, but the deed was done. It stung badly as the blood came flowing out onto the floor. I'll leave it at this one wrist and wait for the end to come.
How could he do that to me? I loved and trusted him, but he deceived me! I thought he loved me but it was just empty words; it turned out to be one big lie after all!
I was on the brink of despair and suicide before he made it all better, even though it didn't happened the way I'd always hoped it would be. Meet someone special, fall in love, have a home, get married, have children, and grow old.
Still, just when I thought I found happiness and a reason to live….it all slipped away. What have I done so wrong to deserve to be all alone and miserable? It's not fair.
As my vision started to get blurry I could think of only Kakuzu. He made me so happy despite the fact he apparently never cared for me in the first place. I was such a fool to believe he loved me and an even greater one to love him, but it was nice while it lasted.
I closed my tear filled eyes as I started to slowly slip back into the darkness and softly murmured, "I love you Kakuzu." Those were my last words before I fell unconscious into the black abyss.
…..I cried my eyes out as I wrote this.
