Begin Flashback (Ichigo's POV)

I awoke with a start. I looked around in confusion, I was no longer in the forest but, in the passenger side of a car. Blinking a few times I looked around only to find passing trees and small shops. I was at a loss, there was only one time that I had ever seen a place like this. That was the day my mother died on our return to L.A. from Washington, 2 years ago. I felt fear rise in my chest as I knew what was going to happen next.

"Ichigo, sweetie are you okay?" A voice came. I looked to see my mother looking at me. I wanted to say 'no' but, the opposite came out. "Yes, I'm fine mommy." was my response. She smiled at me and went back to focusing on the road. My mind was screaming for me to tell her to stop the car.

It was too late and that's when all hell let loose. There was a loud bang and the car began to jerk forward and slow down. I felt my heart race, I didn't want to relieve the next part, but it just kept going. My mom pulled over slowly, and got out of the car. We were on a road surrounded by trees. Not a town, building or gas station in sight. Behind us pulled up a black car, it looked really expensive and foreign. Out of the car stepped a tall man with brown hair and an angular face. He gave me a bad vibe, I wanted to scream for my mom to run and get help but, the words just wouldn't come out.

"Oh! I am glad to see you. My car broke down, do you think you can help?" My mother asked. The man shook his head and stepped forward. "Ah, Misaki. You need my help? Why should I after you shot me down?" The man asked in a sneering manner. Something about him was familiar I just couldn't tell what it was.

"Not now especially not in front of my son." She growled. I felt a lump swell in my throat, I wanted to wake up from this nightmare. Within seconds there was a bang that scared all the nearby animals away, my mom was on the ground in a pool of blood. I was crying and backing away from the man.

"Now, now my little berry boy, your mommy owes me a few favors but, I guess you are going to have to pay me back for her." He said, with a false smile on his face. I kept backing up until I fell on my back. He got over top of me and started stroking the side of my face. I was afraid, suddenly I felt a warm sensation in my crotch and it seeped down to my legs. I had wet my pants out of sheer terror. His smile grew dark and he placed his fingers under the buckles of my belt.

"Oh my. Did you have to go to the bathroom? I am so sorry. Why don't you let me help you out of those clothes?" He asked as he began tugging my pants off. I screamed and cried louder as he stripped me against my will. Suddenly, his weight was gone, I looked in his direction right as he got up.

"Stand up and assume the position." He ordered, his eyes alit with lust. I shook my head in opposition. He lifted up one eyebrow and pulled out his gun, pointing at me with the intent to shoot. "Do what I say or I will shoot you in each of your limbs and then force you to do my bidding. Got it?"

"Someone will catch you! We are on a public road!" I screamed. He laughed and shook his head at me. "Ever since the new freeway was made to lessen the time taken to get back to California no one uses this road anymore. I guess it's unlucky for you that your mommy decided to take the scenic route. So do what I said." He spoke in a mocking tone.

I stood up and he guided me over my mother's body to his car. I could feel his eyes searching me in an eager manner. I slowly put my hands on the hood of his car and leaned forward, closing my eyes tightly. I felt a hand rub my back and another rubbed my neck. The hand at my neck moved to my throat then up to my mouth and rubbed my lips.

"Open." He commaded. Slowly, I opened my mouth and let his fingers prod my tongue. I was practically drooling on his hand. He withdrew and I felt a finger being shoved into my ass. I let out a scream as I was being violated by a murderer. Then he added another finger, then another until he almost had his entire hand inside of me. There was a small puddle on the hood where my tears had fallen. Suddenly the hand was gone, instead I felt something equally as large slide inside of me. My body quaked in pain, I cried and screamed as he thrust into me.

He grabbed my limp member and began to stroke me as he thrusted. I felt my body quake as I grew hard. Without warning, he pulled almost all the way out and slammed back into me. I saw stars as I screamed and came in his hand. He groaned and pounded me a few more times before I felt something warm spill into my torn insides. I dared to look down and back, I could see his seed mixed with my blood running down my thighs. My legs were trembling and I felt sick, my stomach was churning and I thought I was going to vomit. Once he finished, he headed toward the trunk of his car.

"Don't. Move." He ordered sharply. I was to afraid to even speak let alone move. He pulled out a water bottle and a small object that looked like a turkey baster just with a larger bulb at the end. He placed both on the ground and pushed me up on the hood of his car. I quivered as he loaded the object with water and shoved it inside of me. I felt ashamed and filthy, no matter how much water was used to clean me out it still felt disgusting.

When he finished he slung me to the ground with a sick look plastered to his face. "If by some sort of miracle to survive and make it fifty miles back to LA I might have to come see you again." He sneered, pulling his gun out and aimed for the middle on my chest. I raised my hands just as he pulled the trigger, the bullet went through my hands and hit my chest.

I went backwards from the force, I was still concious but I feigned conciousness until his car was gone. When I tried to get up I felt a seering pain in my chest, there were holes in both of my palms and my chest was bleeding. I struggled to get up, when I finally stood I threw up. I was so afraid, but I knew that if I didn't get help I was screwed. I could barely bend my hands but it was enough to open the back door to my mom's car. I tried my hardest not to throw up again after I saw her body laying there, her skin was ghost white.

I crawled into the car and slid on my swim shorts that were drying in the back seat. I was bleeding everywhere, I felt dizzy. I couldn't passout now, I had to keep going. I struggled to move but I collapsed onto the seat. A few seconds passed as my vision faded in and out, then I noticed the emergency assistance button on the dashboard. A new found strength surged in me, I pushed my self in between the seats and hit the button as hard as I could.

Within moments a voice came on. "911 what is your emergency?" I was only able to whine because the pain was overwhelming me. The operator was silent for a moment before she asked me another question.

"Mrs. Kurosaki I see your car has stopped. Do you need assistance?" The woman asked. I cried out and tried to speak, my voice cracking when I was finally able to do so.

"H-Help...I've been shot..." I cried. "He killed my mom...I d-don't know where I am. Please, it hurts so badly." My voice began to grow hoarse and give way. My eyes were burning with tears, I began to lose conciousness.

"Young man? I have your location I am sending an ambulance to you. I need you to stay on the line with me okay?" the woman asked.

"I lost a-a lot of blood...everything is going dark. Please hurry." I moaned. The operator said something else but it was drowned out in the sound of sirens. The world went black and I collapsed.

When I awoke again, I was in the hospital hooked up to an IV. I looked to the side and found my dad sitting and waiting for me to wake up. I slowly sat up and winced in pain, looking down I saw stitches in my chest. My arms shook as I lifted my hands to see they were tightly bandaged.

My father got up and came over to me, I looked at him and I leaned up against him. My eyes watered as I buried my face into his chest, crying with everything I had. My dad just held me and whispered it would be okay.

ZOMG! Who was the man that attacked Ichigo? If you think you know good, don't spoil it. If you don't STAY TUNED! Arigatou!

Me: Yay! This should clear up some things.

Ichigo: Really? Did I have to get shot?

Me: Yesh, now shaddup and take it like a man.

Ichigo: *whimpers.
