(Sora's POV picks up from his POV from Chapter 3)
Sora ducked and covered his head to protect it from the glass raining down into the class room. The kids in the classroom saw the new opening and charged towards the open windows. However, as they were crawling out, other men were coming in. Sora made to follow the student out, but the new kid threw his cell phone battery on the ground and grabbed him. He held him against him, back to chest and laughed/
"Na-uh Sora! Where do you think you're going? I thought we were having fun!" Something cold and metallic was pressed to his throat and Sora resisted the urge to shiver at the cool threat.
"What do you want from me new kid?" he asked. No one seemed to notice or care about what was happening to him. In fact, the people that had broken in were the only ones in the room.
When new kid spoke, Sora could hear the scowl in his voice. "Cut the new kid shit. I'm damn near twenty-five. I just look young. My name's Pierce and I want the money you'll be getting me when I turn you over to my boss." Sora looked around at the guys surrounding him, positive that they were working with Pierce and had the exact same goal. They were all dressed simply, but he knew their clothing was expensive. Each man was of a different shape or size, but they all had disgusting leers or smirks on their faces as they took in his appearance.
"Come on Pierce, let us have a little taste."
"I don't think the boss will mind us having an appetizer."
"We'll just play with him real quick."
Sora was nudged slightly when Pierce shook his head rapidly, making the knife to his throat dig in a little deeper. He winced at the slight pain. He hoped all of his friends were safe and far away from this chaos.
"No, he can't be touched. Though from the information we've gotten he's probably already been ploughed, the little slut." Pierce growled the last three words in his ear and then Sora felt a slimy appendage trace the shell of his ear. He felt disgust crawl over him and he wished someone would get him out of here. One of Pierce's fat accomplices spoke.
"Which way are we going to take him?"
"Let's go through the halls. I know the competition for him will get here soon once word gets out that the school's been raided. With the crazy shit going on in the halls it'll be hard for them to spot us. You perverts can have fun with a few students while we head to the car. I have it parked near the bushes to the side of the school." Everyone nodded at Pierce's instructions with a sort of sick glee and Sora felt his stomach churn at what was being implied. He swallowed deeply and willed his tears back. He wouldn't let these sick freaks see him cry. He knew someone would come get him. He refused to believe otherwise.
Pierced let him go slightly, to grasp his arm firmly instead. He threw a key to one of his lackeys. When the door opened, Sora gasped at the destruction he saw in the hallways. Kids were going insane. People were getting trampled on while some struggled to pull friends away from the madness. There were traces of blood on the hallway floor and walls and Sora tried to figure out why everyone apart from his class would be going crazy. His mental question was answered as the men in his group started pushing people aside so they could get through. Aside from the injured people that had gotten stepped on, there were three bodies strewn on the white tiled floor. They had obviously fallen out of a janitor's closet, because the door to one was wide open. As they passed the bodies Sora felt bile rise in his throat when he realized who they were. It was the school principal and two kind janitors who always took his lunch tray for him at lunch. Instead of the usual smiles he was used to them sporting, their mouths were open in shock and their usual bright eyes were dulled by death and frozen with an expression of horror. They each had slit throats and some of their limbs looked disjointed and broken. There was a pool of blood under each one and Sora would forever have the image burned into his memory. He closed his eyes and tugged futilely against Pierce's hold, but one of his men grabbed his other arm and helped restrict his movement.
"You are really not in the position to try to fight." His voice was very gruff and deep and it rubbed against Sora's skin like prickly Velcro. An involuntary shiver of disgust racked through his body at it and the man grinned. They worked their way through the school, pushing away anyone that came across their path. Before they could take the right turn, that would lead them to the hallway that'd lead them to the car, Sora heard a familiar female voice shout and he prayed that this seriously wasn't happening.
"Sora!"
He realized that the hall they were in contained the art room, meaning Namine was standing in their way. Instead of looking fearful, like he assumed she would look, she looked downright pissed. She stood erect, with her fists clenched.
"Namine, get out of here before they kill you! They've already gotten the principal and some janitors!" he shouted. Her eyes widened slightly at that, but her mouth was fixed into a firm, grim, determined line.
"If you guys were smart, you'd put him down before his rescue unit gets here. I can assure you, when they arrive; you're going to seriously regret what you're doing." They group laughed at the willowy girl's words and Sora felt his stomach drop at the thought of what they'd do to his kind friend. After all, what could Riku honestly do against guys like this? Riku may have a little rough edge to him even though he was an artist, but against eight people? What about the people still running around looking for him? He started to hope that his silver-haired lover didn't come. He didn't know what he'd do if he lost him because of him trying to save him.
"Look little girl, if I were you I'd listen to your friend here. He has the right idea. Although, you are a pretty little thing…maybe we can take you too. You can be entertainment for the road." The guy holding him said as Pierce remained silent. Sora looked at him to see him assessing Namine from head to toe, as if trying to figure her out.
"Tie her to that chair by the room she came from." He ordered. His cronies all looked at him in surprise.
"What?"
"Pierce!"
"Why can't we take her or kill her!"
Pierce shook his head. "We already have enough problems taking Sora. Killing her would cause more problems than we need right now."
"But Pierce man-" Before the thin, lanky pasty skinned male that was one of his cronies could argue, Pierce moved so fast that Sora didn't really see what happened, but he heard it. A loud roar filled his ears and he let out a startled shout. The thin man hit the ground with a thump. His eyes were widened in disbelief and his mouth was frozen in an 'O' of shock. A bullet wound decorated his chest and his life force oozed out from it at a rapid pace.
"Does anyone else want to test my fucking patience? We don't have the time. Tie her to the damn chair and let's go!" Pierce shouted. Everyone scrambled to do as told. Sora had to give Namine some credit; she wasn't as fragile as she looked. As soon as the closet thug got closer to her, she swung her fist and hit him with a right hook that had him stumbling. Another approached and she kneed him in the groin before smashing his nose with her fist. It took five minutes and four men to tame her and tie her down with some rope. Even then, she was struggling.
"Let him go assholes! You're dead already"
If Sora wasn't in the predicament he was in, he would have found Namine swearing comical. However, the knife at his throat and the dead bodies behind and the one beside him erased any humor in the situation.
"Stoopid bih' got my noth!" The guy she hit in the nose yelled over her shouts as he held the end of his shirt up to cover the gushing feature on his face.
"We'll worry about that later. Come on! She made us lose time!" Pierce shouted. They trekked on, but as soon as they got to the door, gun shots rang out and everyone dove for cover. Behind them, were a set of men all dressed in dark green. By the greedy way they looked at him, Sora knew they weren't here to help. Pierce and the rest of his group drew their weapons and fired back, and soon, it was an all out gunfight. The fat guy that had been holding him before dropped to the ground with a hole in his neck. Sora took that as his cue to leave and started to crawl closer towards the exit; sure he could escape and go get help for himself and Namine.
"Oh no you don't!" He felt himself being yanked by the back of his shirt and dragged out of the door. He struggled to get away and he got loose enough and managed to punch Pierce in the eye. Pierce let out a pained grunt before he tripped Sora and reached out to him.
"You know I'm starting to get really tired of you!" His grip transferred to his hair and Sora screamed out in pain at the viscous tug as his body was dragged over the grass. He couldn't stop the tears that flowed out of his eyes in pain and at the realization that they couldn't be too far from the car. Just before he was about to give up and resign himself to his fate, he saw a familiar body that he's recognize anywhere rushing towards him. His eyes widened to new levels when he saw his artist boyfriend decapitating anyone that stood in his path with a quickness that was unnerving. The intense feeling rolling off of Riku could be felt from a distance.
"You came!" He shouted in relief, despite the situation. He looked up at his assailant and saw Pierce actually had fear on his face when he saw who was coming after them. He looked back to Riku and saw why. By now, the police and students couldn't see what was going on, and they were lucky. Riku swooped down on his opposition like an avenging angel, working methodically and quickly to get to Sora. His hood fell from his head and Sora saw the pure look of fury on his face as he took people down with one blade and a bare hand. When no one stood but Pierce and Riku with Sora on the ground, Sora realized Pierce was breathing more heavily than Riku.
Finally, Riku spoke. "You took the wrong guy."
Pierce's voice was shaky and scared, a huge contrast to the in-charge voice Sora heard before. "I-I didn't know he was yours!"
Sora saw Riku checking his body over for wounds with his eyes. His gaze zeroed in on his neck and Sora traced his hand over it, feeling a very thin line that hurt faintly, but not by much. The most pain was in his scalp.
"Riku…" he whimpered slightly, just wanting to get away from Pierce. Riku nodded to him.
"Let him go. Now." His voice was freezing and it sent a chill up Sora's spine, even though it wasn't directed towards him.
"You'll kill me if I do." Pierce said.
"I'll kill you if you don't. If you let him go now I'll make it quick and painless." Sora winced as Pierced clutched his hair hard for a second and saw Riku tense at his discomfort. "You have five seconds before I make the choice for you."
Pierce started to slowly step back, taking Sora with him.
"Five…" Riku took a step forward, his eyebrow raised at the thug's movement.
"Four…" Sora didn't know what Riku was going to do, but after seeing him go through all of those people, he knew it wasn't going to be pleasant.
"Three…" Sora clenched his eyes shut as Pierce continued to try to drag him towards the car.
"Two…" He knew Pierce's attempt was pointless by now, and didn't even try to struggle.
"One." Suddenly, the grip on his hair was gone and he heard a choked gurgle before silence overtook it.
"Sor? You can open your eyes." He opened his eyes to see Riku looking at him in concern. Despite all the people he went through, Riku didn't have a speck of blood on him.
"Riku..oh God…" Sora said faintly, but the thanks were in his tone. Riku opened his arms and Sora got from the ground and wrapped his arms around his neck tightly, relief coming from him in waves. He could feel some of the tension leaving Riku as his boyfriend picked him up bridal style. He usually would have complained at such a position, but he just closed his eyes and nuzzled Riku's neck slightly, happy to be surrounded with the familiar, relaxing scent of his lover.
"Riku…Namine. They tied her to a chair, and I don't know what happened to Kadaj." Riku tightened his hold on him to quiet him.
"It's okay; we're going to get you somewhere safe. Namine and Kadaj are fine." He then spoke to someone else that Sora didn't bother to look at.
"You going to cover me on the way back?"
The person snorted and then answered back. "Of course. Though since we entered, most of them scattered. There's a few stragglers trying to take a few kids, but that's all being handled."
"Alright, let's go."
He felt them moving in a light jog and finally, everything caught up to him. Exhaustion and the knowledge that Riku wouldn't let anything happen to him flooded his senses before everything went black.
(Still Sora's POV)
He scrunched his nose a little and shifted slightly. He was warm, very warm and he was comfortable. He opened his eyes slightly and saw why. He was lying in the middle of a large, king sized bed. The sheets he was wrapped in were sinfully soft and the comforter over them was thick and stuffed to perfection. The pillow under his head and the ones surround him were so plush he had to wonder how they were made like that. He rolled over in the unfamiliar bed and saw the faint imprint in the sheets, letting him know Riku had been there not too long ago, that thought comforted him somewhat. He sat up and looked around to try to get a feel for where he was.
The bedroom was awash in a soft glow because of the small lamp alight on the nightstand next to his side of the bed. He saw that the bedroom he was in was large with walls the color of cinnamon with dark maple wood paneling at the bottom. The floor was made out of polished maple that matched the color of the paneling, but there were rugs placed on the floor that matched the décor of the room and the sheets on the bed, which were crème and brown. At the foot of the bed was a matching chaise and in front of that on the wall was a large flat screen television. To his left there was barely any wall because large windows dominated it. The crème and brown curtains were closed so no light could get in. To his right was a dresser and matching armoire that had a slightly open door and Sora could make out a tile floor, letting him know it was a bathroom. He looked around and wondered what it was that had awoken him so suddenly. Then he heard it, voices.
"So we're both going to tell him?"
He didn't know who that voice belonged to and he tensed. The voice wasn't menacing or irritating. It sounded nervous.
"Yes, having me with you would be best. He'll accept it better." Now that voice he knew. The deep, shiver inducing voice could be recognized anywhere. It was Leon's.
So I guess I don't have to worry about being killed for right now. He thought to himself. He walked towards the door that had to lead out to the voice and opened it. There was a small living room of sorts that matched the décor of the bedroom he had just walked out of. Situated in an armchair was Leon with Cloud on his lap. In a loveseat was a man that was perfectly tanned with crazy blonde hair and familiar blue eyes sitting next to an attractive pale raven. Namine was sitting on a couch between Riku and Kadaj while Yazoo stood behind it. They all turned to look at him and took in the blank expression on his face.

(Naruto's POV)
Naruto took in Sora as he stood in the doorway that led to the bedroom. Looking at his brother, alive and standing there made an immeasurable amount of relief flood through him. He had the urge to run up to him, but he knew right now that would have been smart. He was still a stranger to him. A small pang hit him at that thought, but he pushed it away. Right now he just wanted to analyze everything he could about his younger sibling. Right now the brunette was taking everything in cautiously, but Naruto could tell he wasn't that happy. Naruto understood some of that as he looked at the space between him and Sasuke on the loveseat. The pale man had come clean about his career and right now, Naruto didn't want to talk to him.
(Naruto's POV right when they arrived at the mansion)
Naruto took in the large and spacious bedroom he and Sasuke would be sharing.
"It's nice, but I miss our home." Sasuke made a 'hn' of agreement as he put their bags down beside the closet. Naruto walked over to him and wrapped his arms around his waist.
"So teme, Sora's still out and Riku is with him. We're all alone so…" he moved in to kiss him and Sasuke complied and pulled him closer. Naruto smiled into the kiss and pulled away.
"Here, let me repay you for earlier." He kneeled down before Sasuke could reply, and when his hand brushed the raven's calf, he felt a bulge there that didn't belong. He looked up at Sasuke in confusion and saw the marginal widening of dark grey eyes. The teme tried to take a step back, but Naruto moved faster. He lifted Sasuke's pant leg and was met with the sight of a gleaming blade.
"Sasuke what are you doing with this?" Naruto stood up and looked at Sasuke dead on. Sasuke didn't reply and Naruto felt his face start to heat up at the silence.
"Hello teme! Am I talking to myself? What are you doing with this knife?" The raven haired male let out a sigh.
"It's part of my job." He answered simply, but the blond was having nothing of it.
"Your job at the aquarium? Why would you need a knife for that? You're going to have to be a lot more detailed than that Uchiha!" Naruto felt a sort of satisfaction fill him when Sasuke tensed slightly. Finally, he heard a sigh.
"Naruto, there's something I need to tell you…"
Naruto's eyes widened when Sasuke finished telling him the tale of his entire family and what he did for a living. He shoved Sasuke away from him and started gathering the bags that contained his things. He still ranted as he moved around the room in a flurry.
"So you've been telling me lies this entire time? All of those late nights you spent away, you've been killing people—innocent people that have families and loved ones!"
Sasuke moved to stop him, but at the glare Naruto shot him, he knew the teme wouldn't attempt again right now. Instead he said, "Naruto, the people I've killed were hardly innocent. They were all involved in the underground in some shape or form. I've never killed a person that didn't deserve it."
"Yeah, but who are you to judge who gets to live and who gets to die! You know what? You're just like your asshole brother Itachi!"
Naruto saw Sasuke stiffen at his words before he spoke. His voice was slightly colder and his eyes were guarded, something that they had never been before when it came to him. "I see. You don't have to leave the room. I'll get my things and sleep in a guest room in another part of the hallway."
Cloud had then walked in at that point and told them that everyone was about to gather around and discuss how to break the news to Sora before waking him up soon. Now here they were, with Sora standing less than ten feet from him.
To everyone else, Sasuke appeared to be cool and collected about Naruto's silent treatment, but Naruto could see it seriously bothered him. He pushed his thought away from Sasuke and back to his brother.
"Sora-" Namine moved to speak, but Sora calmly held up a hand to silence her. He then opened his mouth.
"I was just held hostage and threatened to be sold by knife point. I watched my teacher fall from the ceiling in a mangled mess and saw my principle and two janitors dead in the middle of the hallway while fellow students went apeshit. Not only that, but some killer thug tied my best friend to a chair while criminals ran all over the place. Then, to top it all off, I'm rescued by my artist boyfriend who went completely Rambo on everyone's ass. What I want to know is…" Sora paused for a moment and Naruto wondered what was possibly going through his head. He tapped a finger and looked upward as if seriously lost in thought before he took his finger down and made sure his eyes landed on everyone in the room at least once. His sudden outburst made everyone jump in surprise.
"What I want to know is…WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?"
