Chapter: 4
The next day Akihito woke up quite sore and cursed Asami. One look at the clock had him jumping out of bed and limping to the bathroom to take a fast shower. He came out in record time. He has a dirty politician to follow damn it and Asami isn't making it any easy for him. Because of him he is late and it's already 10am.
He hurriedly put on his clothes and took his cell and keys from the nightstand. A note caught his attention
'Kitten don't go anywhere without Eichi or you will be best friends with the secret room as your punishment for a week'
Reading this Akihito curled the note in his hand and turned red to the roots remembering his latest punishment. His wrist were still sore. He absentmindedly rubbed them.
"Good morning Takaba-sama. Aren't you late" the voice of his guard startled him.
"Eichi. How many times have I told you NOT to do that? I still can't believe you can sneak up on me like that."
"My Apologies" bowed Eichi and offered him his camera bag.
Akihito waved him aside and grinned seeing his camera bag ready "You are a life saver Eichi" and made his way out.
….VF…..
Akihito was in a dilemma. The politician he was following has changed his routine. He was going somewhere else. And his gut feeling told him that the place will not be like his usual standouts. Not to mention very dangerous. But the problem is he is sure Eichi won't let him do it. He has to lose him somehow. Asami's warning echoed in his head.
He narrowed his eyes. He can do whatever he wants damn it. He isn't one of his goon. And Asami will not treat him such. Determination in place he nodded his head. He looked around spotting Eichi, who came to him "Do you need something Takaba-sama?"
"Yeah you see. I'm a bit hungry considering I was in a hurry and didn't ate and a little sore too. You have a bastard of beast boss" scowled Akihito.
Eichi looked a little uncomfortable with the last information. So Akihito continued "So, while I eat a light breakfast in this café, can you get me some painkillers from the pharmacy?"
"But Asami-sama.."
"Doesn't have to know Eichi. It's the bastard's fault anyway" shrugged Akihito.
Eichi looked like he was in deep thought. Leaving Akihito alone when his boss ordered him specifically not to. But the boy has a point.
Seeing Eichi, Akihito tried again "I'll just be sitting in this café Eichi. I won't go anywhere alone. It's not like I can. I'm so tired and hungry. It's 3pm already. No harm will be done".
Eichi nodded seeing the tired boy and waited till Akihito entered the café and turned around to get to the pharmacy. The sooner he will be done, the better. He will be by Takaba-Sama's side.
The moment Akihito saw Eichi turn around the corner, he was sprinting towards the location. He had managed to find through his sources the 3 location the man might be at. By the time he is checking Eichi won't find him.
He smirked 'freedom'. He had forgotten how thrilling it felt to disobey Asami. He reached the first location and wanted to do the victory dance. Damn, how lucky he is to be on the exact location the dirty man was, if the cars and goons are telling something. Well good for him, saves time searching the other two. His cell phone vibrated pulling him out of his thoughts. He saw the caller and rolled his eyes.
Go figures. Eichi must have contacted the bastard after he lost him. But Asami needs to learn to back off a bit. He has his life and a dream to complete. If he doesn't interfere with Asami's life then he expect the same from him. But nooO his lover is a possessive, rich bastard, who can't take 'no' for an answer. But if Asami thinks he'll obey him like a pet than he has another thing coming.
"What"
"You lost Eichi"
"Wonderful deduction Sherlock"
"Akihito why must you defy me at every single thing?" The warning was clear in Asami's voice. Akihito shuddered but kept it together.
"Then stop trying to put me in a cage Asami." Akihito frustratingly whispered.
"I'm not. Why can't you simply understand that they're there for your protection."
"Well i don't need them. I clearly stated that many times."
He heard a sigh "where are you?"
"... Busy. We'll will talk thoroughly when I'm back Asami" n he cut the call n sighed heavily. He really isn't looking forward to meeting him. He just know this time the argument will be inevitable and decisive.
He turned off his phone and put it back in his jeans pocket. Taking his camera out, he laid down and waited. After an hour the man arrived. He had this evil aura that had Akihito shuddering. And to think he lives with the devil himself he must be used to it. But this man was something else. Akihito couldn't pinpoint. He knew that aura somehow. He scowled at his memory.
The man made his way into the ware house where young men and women around 20's were chained in cages.
So he is involved in human trafficking. Akihito steadily took pictures of the victims and the man.
When some of his goons begin drawing something on the floor Akihito had the worst feeling ever. One man dragged a man on the drawn circle and made him lay down. One look on the victim's eyes told Akihito that he was drugged. His viewfinder providing him with intricate details.
The politician came near the man and suddenly the aura of the room changed. All goons bowed on the floor and Akihito felt extremely sick.
This must not be happening. He must help those people. He can't just sit and watch them be sacrificed. The man wasn't human. Shit. What should he do? If He did something they'll know his identity. But he can't just leave those poor people alone.
When the man began his Chanting. Akihito promptly vomited. The dark magic was taking a toll on his body. He have to get away from here but not when he can do something about those victims.
Breathing heavily he wiped his mouth with his sleeve and concentrated on his hand. A fire lit up and soon shaped into a large phoenix. He waved it away. The phoenix flew to the enchanted circle catching the attention of all the men in the room. It waved its wings and the air blew out with golden light dissolving the magic circle.
Seeing this Akihito turned around and made a run for it. He have to get back now that they are safe for the time being. He is sure his little interruption quite ruined their plans for the time being. The phoenix hasn't disappear yet. It keeps waving its wings. The holy light and air showering at the demons present in the warehouse. Akihito knew he had little time. In his weak condition he didn't stand a chance.
Soon a hideous roar echoed with dark atmosphere. The dark magic being released in waves. The force of the wave made him dizzy. His human body can't stand more magic being used. Thank goodness he is far. With his fuzzy mind he walked with sheer determination.
….VF…..
Asami was angry. No scratch that he was royally pissed. Why can't Akihito understand his reasoning? And the brat had the nerve to hang up on him. In his dark and dangerous world Akihito won't stand a chance if he kept his stubbornness.
He sighed pinching the bridge of his nose. He don't know what to do when it comes to Akihito. He doesn't understand the fact that he could be assassinated by his enemies. Hurt, kidnapped, tortured. Asami isn't naive to think that everything will be alright. He has seen too much to simply believe that.
Kirishima seeing his boss stressing over Akihito suggested that he should go home and have a good night rest. Asami nodded. He can't work this distracted and made his way out, getting in the car to go to the penthouse.
….VF…..
Akihito unlocked the penthouse door and entered. He was feeling a bit better. All he needed was to show the pictures to his boss tomorrow first thing in the morning and he is sure the man will be found guilty and the people freed.
"You are back".
Akihito jumped hearing Asami's voice. He was sitting on the couch with a glass of whiskey. His distracted mind has failed to provide him that he wasn't alone. He sighed remembering their phone chat "Yeah" and made his way to his room which he hasn't used in a while. Knowing they have to talk in one thing but that doesn't mean he WANTS to. So, he'll avoid however long he can.
An arm caught his making him stop.
"This cannot happen every time Akihito. I told you and still you didn't listen to me". Straight to the point huh. Asami's voice was calm but Akihito could clearly hear the frustration hidden there.
"And you do?"
"What?"
"Do YOU listen to ME? I don't know about you Asami but it works both ways in my opinion. You can't always order me around. I'm not one of your men". Akihito replied frustratingly wrenching his arm free and facing Asami.
"I don't order you around without any reason Akihito. And I obviously don't treat you like the men under me. I do those things to PROTECT you. Which I can't if you don't co-operate."
"You simply cannot expect me to co-operate when you are putting me in a cage damnit." Yelled Akihito breathing heavily. All energy depleting immediately his knees gave out and he fell forward.
"Akihito..!" Asami eyes widened and he immediately caught him. Taking him bridal style to couch, he laid him down. The anger replaced by concern. "Hey... what's wrong?" he called softly cupping Akihito's cheek.
Akihito groaned and opened his eyes taking a while to focus and see the concern in Asami's eyes. "I'm fine" he tried to reassure.
"No you are not. Let me call my doctor" Asami replied with narrowed eyes.
Akihito rolled his eyes and caught Asami's hand sitting up. "I'm fine see? Just tired. Listen I think we need a little break." Seeing Asami's eyes widen he immediately corrected. "Not like that. We need to think about each other's opinions more. You try to be less possessive and demanding and I'll try to be less stubborn and see your reasons. I'll stay at kou for the night. You give it a thought too." Akihito got up but his hand was caught.
"I understand Akihito but you don't have to stay there. What if you got worse?"
"I need it Asami. A little time alone to think. Please."
Asami squeezed his hand once and released it.
"Kirishima will drop you".
"I can go by myself" Akihito immediately denied.
"It's late Akihito. The Trains aren't working now".
Akihito stood staring at Asami for a minute. He is actually surprised the older man agreed. To his advice and to him staying the night at kou. Not pushing his luck further he nodded and made his way out.
….VF…..
When they reached kou's apartment Eichi opened the door for Akihito to get out. His personal guard will obviously come with him but Kirishima has reassured him he will be outside. Akihito has already called his friend and told him to expect him in 10 minutes.
"Takaba-sama?" Kirishima's voice stopped him from knocking at the door. He turned around. Kirishima seemed hesitant, which was a first.
"Yeah?"
"Asami-sama may not say it often but he cares about you and always think in your best interest."
Akihito smiled "I know Kirishima. I don't want anything drastic from him but He just have to change his ways a bit as will i."
"I apologize for being un-professional". Bowed Kirishima.
"Don't worry about us Kirishima-san" Akihito said waving his apology away. "But thank you".
Kirishima straightened and nodded.
Akihito knocked the door and soon the friends were greeting and going inside. Kirishima nodded towards Eichi to stay alert who nodded back and entered the car and informed his boss of his lover's safe arrival at his friend's house and went home when he was dismissed. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.
….VF…..
"Chill up man. You guys will be fine tomorrow". Kou said giving Akihito more beer. They have been at it for an hour or so. Akihito shared his problem with kou when he insisted to know his reason for a sudden stay. And everybody know Akihito can't lie to save his life. So why bother trying, he told the truth. But somehow Kou believes they will be fine.
"I hope so". Akihito replied sullenly. Seeing this kou offered to play games to take this stuff off aki's mind. Soon they were cheering and swearing playing the game challenging each other. Around 3am they realize that it was time to take some well needed rest. Akihito got up but the room swam and he fell on the couch behind.
"Aki…! Man are you alright?" kou was there immediately. "Is it beer? Should I get water?"
Akihito groaned "No kou it isn't beer. Shit. How the hell did they find out? Go to your room and hide immediately kou".
"What the hell are you talking about? Are you drunk?" kou asked confused. Suddenly there was a shot of gunfire. They both jumped out of their seats. "NOW KOU".
Kou nodded wide eyed and made his way to the hallway to his room. He has to do something. He can't leave aki alone. Police. Yes he should call them. Nodding he raced to his bedroom getting his cellphone to call them. He stopped. What if it was something relating aki's job? And considering the work he does the police can do nothing against those people. Shit what should he do?
Meanwhile the front door broke and Eichi went flying across it and laid unmoving. His head bleeding due to the hit. Akihito can only imagine how many injuries he has that can't be seen right now. His heart was drumming and he was taking steps backwards dreading to face those creatures. He can't believe they found him this early. He thought they wouldn't pay him attention and if they did they cannot track him. But apparently they can. Two men entered, their long black wings folded behind them. Their aura was making Akihito nauseous. But he can handle them even in his weak state. He narrowed his eyes preparing to fight back.
The second they saw him one man lunged forward and slammed Akihito to the wall with his hand on his throat.
"Don't be so rough. We need him alive" the second man ordered.
Akihito gasped and with both hands caught the hand squeezing his throat and concentrated. A sizzling sound was heard and the man yelped back with his badly burned wrist. He narrowed his eyes and growled "You are definitely coming with us boy".
"Like hell I'm".
"You better watch your words or you will pay" smirked the man and put his hand in the air. Akihito could see the dark magic forming on the man's hand and prepared himself to defend but was staring stupidly when it just dissipated in the air after its completion. He raised his eyebrow in question and the man smirked back in return.
Before he could say something there was a heavy pressure in the air. The air around him became so thick he could hardly breathe. The dark magic was surrounding him from all sides and keep seeping into him. He fell on his knees breathing heavily and sweating. His vision was blurring.
He could see their shoes come near him "It was idiotic of you to think only we two came. Your show in the warehouse was a pretty warning for us, of you being rare and a creature of light. So we took necessary measures. Even you can't stand a chance against ten demons. But I'm impressed you are still conscious."
"Not for long" the second man spoke this time and knelt in front of aki. He unfolded his wings and wrapped them around Akihito chanting something.
Akihito tried to pull back. This close to the demon magic he could hardly move let alone break free. Too soon his eyes closed and he slumped falling on the waiting hands.
….VF…..
Asami was standing in the living room near his floor length glass viewing Tokyo. A glass of whiskey in hand and a cigarette in his mouth. Akihito's words repeating themselves in a loop in his head. His heart graciously providing how right his kitten is. But his mind debating. He sighed and took a big gulped of his drink. His phone suddenly rang pulling him out of his thoughts. He raised an eyebrow seeing its 3:30 am already. Seeing that it's Akihito he picked it up.
"Akihito. What's wrong?"
"A-Asami-san its kou. I d-don't know if you will believe me but you have to. It's important. They got aki. He is in danger. I saw them.. men. Wings. All black. I don't know what to do." Kou said rambling.
"Kou calm down and tell me what's wrong with Akihito". Asami stated coldly hearing that Akihito was in danger.
"We were just spending time doing stuff and Akihito was worried you would leave him…..."
"Get to the point" Asami cut him off impatiently.
"T-there were these weird men. Two of them came in while others were surrounding the house. They had black wings. They fought with aki and took him with them."
"Where's Eichi?" growled Asami.
"H-he is unconscious as far I know. He is hurt too."
"Alright. You calm down and do not make a scene. My men will be there in a few." And hung up his phone, dialing Kirishima immediately. On the third ring it was picked. Without waiting for Kirishima to greet Asami spoke.
"We have a situation Kirishima, regarding Akihito. Ready the men and meet me at the penthouse in ten minutes."
"Understood Asami-sama"
