The first time he met Asami's ex-wife, Akihito was stewing in anger, dirty and alone behind bars for a crime he knew he didn't commit.
Or couldn't remember committing, his mind amended.
For some reason, Akihito wasn't sure anymore.
"My, my, what a cute little lamb."
From his dark corner, the blonde looked up with venomous eyes.
The visitor—his first since confinement—was a tall half-American woman whose face and sophisticatedly clothed body failed to reveal her true age.
His memories came up blank.
Akihito couldn't recognize this person.
A purring sound. "And those handcuffs look positively charming on you." The uttered words were not new—having heard them from Asami so many times that he didn't bother keeping count anymore—but that amused tilt of her head and sardonic smile were extremely, extremely annoying.
"Who the fuck are you?" he spat.
Even the answering smirk was irritatingly familiar, so familiar in fact, it was making him nauseous. "Your ticket to freedom, kid."
The next thing he knew, Akihito was dragged out of the cell, freed from restraints and delivered, quite hurriedly, to his unknown savior.
Run, his mind screamed.
Sleep, the body disagreed.
Because it had been forty-eight hours.
He was filthy, hungry and terribly, terribly fatigued.
So when he was told to "Hop in, kid." Akihito didn't complain and just climbed into the black sedan, not noticing the green eyes trailing after him, looking wicked and definitely entertained.
And from that point on, the seemingly surreal dream of two days past turned to a nightmare that scarred him for life.
