Nanjiro's POV

I was finally ready to put my magazine down when I heard Rinko start to yell. Did the brat break something because it sounded like he was being scolded pretty badly by the tone I could pick up? However, a minute later I heard Rinko shriek like she was in pain. The second I heard her I dropped my magazine and bolted to the front of the house. I don't care if it will be embarrassing or not, when my wife is hurt I put everything down to help her.

"Rinko, Gaki" I shouted eager they would respond before I got there. As I got closer I could have sworn I heard another voice, it was familiar but I couldn't pinpoint where I heard it before. When I turned the corner I saw a man knee Rinko's head into the wall and with a scream in pain she landed on the floor next to Ryoma. I couldn't believe it, what just happened? Why is this happening?

"Hey, you! What are you doing to my wife"? The man standing by the doorway looked towards me and just as fast he started walking towards me. He turned to the side and reached for something in his sports bag and pulled out a racket. The man's eyes widened as he brought the racket up and swung at me countless times, I tried to dodge but the man started going berserk. "YOU…You're a monster! You're not a tennis player, you cheat, and you don't play fair! I'm going to end you!" the man yelled at me as he took another swing.

Rinko slowly got up behind him and picked up a close by umbrella and started hitting him with it to get him away from me. Grunting in pain and dropping the racket, the man turned around to snatch the umbrella away from her and hit her with it until she was on the ground once more. "Mommy!" Ryoma getting up and shouting for his mother also got hit by the umbrella and landed head first on the floor next to Rinko. 'I can't take this, I can't let this man come in my house and beat my family around like this. No more!'


The front door shot open and closed just as fast leaving another man standing in the front room of the house. "Sasabe you idiot, what's taking you so long"? The new arrival said to the man holding Ryoma's father by the neck. Sasabe looked to the man at the door and replied, "Well I didn't think the kid and wife would be in the way and weren't you supposed to be right behind me? Geez Akutsu, what made you take so long"?

The man at the door now identified as Akustu looked to the woman trying to get up off the floor and reach her son who was slumped against a nearby wall in pain. Akutsu walked over to her and grabbed her by her hair while he beat her and threw her across the room. Ryoma started to cry as he saw how terrible the two men were being to his parents. "Mommy, Da…ddy" Ryoma cried to his parents.

"Rinko…" Was all Nanjiro could muster as he too was abused by the man that stood over him. "Stop! Stop! Stop"! Ryoma yelled as he got up from the wall and flung himself at the man beating his mother. Said man turned around and punched Ryoma in the head and took him by the leg. Both parents screamed, "RYOMA!" as the boy was flown across the room into the wall and landed with a thud and groan on the floor. The next couple seconds were silent except for the small sobs coming from Ryoma as he lie on the floor and the labored breathes of his parents and captives.

Sasabe decided he should speak up once he saw Akutsu's face. "Akutsu settle down we need to focus on Nanjiro, he's the one we want. Let them go and help me take care of him already". With a grunt Akutsu turned away from the wife and son and pulled a knife out of his pocket. Nanjiro tried to back away but was quickly put in a head lock by Sasabe so he couldn't escape. "Let… let go of my husband you monsters!" Rinko yelled as she got up with the last of her strength and ran towards the men about to hurt Nanjiro.

Akutsu turned around in a fit of rage with the knife in his hand slashing Rinko from the neck across to the shoulder. "Shut up woman!" He yelled "We're not the monsters HE is" as he pointed to Nanjiro. "He's a coward, a cheat, and a good for nothing just like the rest of his pathetic family. If he didn't always taunt and act so arrogant to us maybe this wouldn't be happening but no he can't admit he did anything wrong and instead decides to humiliate us, US, the Great Akutsu and the Golden Retriever".

Rinko lying on the ground with a thick pool of blood starting to surround her whispered something inaudible to her son the first time. Ryoma's eyes widened as he looked at his mothers' eyes and then the blood around her. "Mommy…" Nothing. "Mommy…" He said a little louder. "Run" She said loud enough this time that most of the people in the room heard it. Her eyes flickered then shut as the rest of her body went limp.

"Rinko! Sweetie! Wake up!" Nanjiro started to yell to his wife hoping she wasn't really dead. Tears streaming out of Ryoma's eyes he stood up and for the first time he noticed that his left arm was limp and he couldn't move it. As he began to move forward Akutsu moved so that he was standing right in front of Ryoma. He fearfully started to walk backwards but fell, too scared to do so anymore.

Sasabe starting to get irritated at not being able to finish off Nanjiro decided to stop Akutsu. "Akutsu wait, you can do whatever you want with the brat later but first let's take care of Echizen. Now hurry up and help me." Ryoma's face painted in pure terror at the thought of them doing the same thing to his father that happened to his mother only minutes ago. At hearing this Nanjiro started to struggle more than ever.

Akutsu grunted in affirmative and turned away from the boy on the floor. Starting to head in the direction of his partner who was holding Nanjiro Echizen against the wall so he wouldn't try to get away he put the knife in his more dominant hand. With a murderous gleam in their eyes the two men began to punch and stab the man against the wall. Ryoma stood, tears rolling down his bruised face, and ran with what seemed as the last of his strength at the men beating up his father. "Go away! Leave my Daddy be!" He shouted at them as he pounded his only working fist into the side of Sasabe. "Akutsu hold Echizen still while I make sure the brat doesn't bother us again".

Akutsu nodded in agreement as he took Nanjiro by the neck of his shirt and pounded him into the wall again. Sasabe took the boy by his arm and said, "It looks like your shoulder is disconnected why don't I fix that." He slammed Ryoma to the floor and took the arm of the dislocated shoulder and popped it back into place. Ryoma screamed in pain, tears rolling off his face and into a puddle on the floor. "Daddy! Daddy help me! Help me Daddy!" He screamed to his father.

Nanjiro's eyes half lidded looked with incredible sadness at his son on the floor in pain. "Ryoma…I'm so sorry…I'm so sorry Ryoma" Nanjiro said. Sasabe looked down at the boy and decided it wasn't good enough. "No, I think I liked it better the other way, here." He said as he snapped Ryoma's shoulder out of place again. "Please…please stop…no more…please" Ryoma pleaded as he lay on the floor sobbing and whaling.

Starting to see dark spots at the edges of his vision he grew still. "I'll stop when I think I should, got it kid" was all Sasabe said. With that said he started to kick Ryoma in the stomach over and over until he was on the other side of the room. "You know, now that I think about it you should be punished for being that trashes son" Sasabe said as he picked Ryoma up by the hair. "Akutsu…give me your blade for a sec" Sasabe said determined to make him stay on the ground and pay for being related to Nanjiro Echizen.

With Ryoma still not able to move due to the already inflicted injuries all he could do was watch in half lidded terror as Sasabe dragged the blade down the side of his body. As Sasabe started the painful trip with the knife from just below his shoulder down to his waist, Ryoma let out a last attempt for him to stop or someone to help with a gut wrenching scream/whale. Surely someone would hear him and come to his and his parents rescue.

With the mark done Sasabe let go of Ryoma's hair and dropped him on the ground where he stayed unmoving. "Brat…" Sasabe mumbled under his breath as he walked away. Returning to Nanjiro he slicked back his hair and said, "Now…let's do this already". Handing the knife back to Akutsu and taking Nanjiro by his shirt he pushes him to the wall one last time and gives the nod to Akutsu to do it.

Ryoma lying on the floor couldn't even find the strength to move his pinkie finger if he wanted to. All he could manage to do was watch as Akutsu took the knife and jammed it into his father's stomach over and over. Nanjiro at this point couldn't let a single moan come from his mouth; He'd been screaming in pain for so long that he lost his voice. Akutsu had finally stopped with the knife and caught him by the neck of his shirt.

Ryoma's eyes feeling heavier by the second could only watch as Sasabe twisted his fathers' head fast and into a position it shouldn't be in and dropped him. The last thing he saw was his father and mother lying on the floor next to him. The last thought as he closed his eyes was 'I'm going to die here too, no one will come for me'.


YAY! second chapter done! I really hope it turned out okay, and everybody understood it! HA, sorry I'm such a sadist but I couldn't help myself!
