Alright so I allowed my readers to decide if Chapter 8 would contain a larger Gino POV. Many said yes and a few said no so it was voted and here it is a Gino POV. :3

Ginoza

Huh what happened? My head hurts more than it did before as I open my eyes; a bright light blinding my sight only helps to intensify my headache. However, they quickly adjust this time comparing to before. It seems I'm no longer where I was before as I've been laid on my stomach, my wrists no longer restrained by the leather straps but they are still bandaged. I shake my head as I lift myself up only to realize that I'm not wearing anything then just as I stood up I suddenly get shoved back down hard. I try to force myself to get up again but every time I try I just get more force put on my back by a large warm hand and I feel the other touching my tight.

"Every part of your body Nobuchika is as soft as a baby." His voice chills me down to the core as I try to fight him off but I just can't. The weight he's applying on me, I just can't move.

His hands then move as he places them onto my shoulder, applying pressure making me further sink into the mattress. I can feel him lie completely on me, his chest against my back and his breathing meets my neck followed by a sharp pain. He's biting me again as I feel something warm drip down on my shoulder which I'm certain is my own blood. What the hell is he? A cannibal? I try again to lift myself up but I can't even manage to do that by an inch.

His tongue sends shiver down my spine as his touch just wants to make my skin crawl. I want him off, to stop touching me! Just get off me! I want to scream but I can't, I can't find my voice. The words just won't come out, only pathetic and embarrassing sounds that succeeded to escape my throat and all I can do is try to free myself but with little success, he's just too heavy.

"Let me hear more of that voice." As he spoke he presses his hands on my back as I feel a sudden rush of pain, as if I was being torn in two. His hands then shift from my back and takes a hold of my hips, I try to fight him off but the more I move the more it hurts. His fingers digging into my skin as he moves inside me.

"You're so tight Nobuchika, I can barely fit." What kind of sicko is he? It's not supposed to go there; the pain is unbearable as I feel warm liquid drip down my tights.

Each thrust he makes sends a jolt of pain throughout my body; I can't stop the tears from escaping as I bury my face in the mattress, trying to silence my cries. It hurts so bad, anything is better than this. I'd rather be a lowly latent criminal if it would mean that this would stop.

"That's right let me hear more as I imprint myself onto your purity." I can't take it, the more he rams into me, stronger the pain gets and for some reason my body keeps getting hotter and hotter, I feel like I'm suffocating inside.

Suddenly he just places his whole weight on me, I can barely breathe as he bites my neck again followed by his tongue licking over where he bite and up to my ear. "Thank you Nobuchika for giving me your virginity, you belong to me now." I didn't give it, you took it against my own will is what I want to shout back at him but I can't even manage to form a single word. All I can do is cry in pain as he keeps thrusting into me.

I don't know how long it's been before he finally got off me, it felt like it was never going to end. He laid some clothes for me to put on while he sat on a chair and watched. His eyes right then looked like that of a hungry wolf stalking its prey. I quickly put on the clothes; it's the only thing that managed to help make me feel less vulnerable but that feeling didn't last long. Before he left he cuffed my left ankle connected to a chain that is bolted onto the wall near the bed and pressed his lips against mine and with a hand squeezed unto my jaw to force me to open my mouth as he sticked his tongue. I felt like throwing up as he kept circling his around mine and with that he got dressed and left.

This room has two beds and it's been divided by iron bars further making it look like a jail cell; all of this is just too insane to be real. I keep telling myself that I will wake up and this will be just a dream but I can't wake up. The pain is real, everything is real and I feel as if I'm starting losing my mind. My confinement only allows me to go to a small bathroom with no door and with this chain attached to my ankle I can't reach the iron bars either.

Exactly how long have I been here? I've lost track of time when I was getting my blood taken out of me, it feels like time has slowed down and everything is now in slow motion… My head hurts so badly right now and my body is in so much pain that it's making me nauseous; there are blood stains on the white sheets… My blood… The tears just keep coming as I bury my face into my knees; I just want to go home. I want Dime to wake me up in the morning like he always does and I want dad right now, I want you here so bad dad. I need you to tell me that everything will be alright, that my situation just looks worse than it actually is.

The lighting from the sun shining through the window as changed; it looks like the sun is setting. Even though it's been a little while since he finally left to who knows where I can still feel him touching me, his disgusting moaning is the only thing I keep hearing in my head. No matter how much I fought back, how much I tried to get free I just couldn't. He's bigger than I am and far stronger too. Physically I don't stand a chance in a fight against him and by how he chained me up so I have an even bigger disadvantage.

With that second bed in here I know he'll sleep right there, watching everything I will do and when I'll sleep… He's going to force himself on me again and I'm not sure I can bare it next time. I'd rather have my blood extracted from me than this, getting beaten up would still be better than having that man forcing himself on me.

I lie on my side, my back against the wall holding my knees closer to my stomach but it didn't help to reduce the pain, only the coolness of the wall helps a little to sooth the pain on my back. He seemed proud to have violated me, proud that he was the first to do what he did to me… Does that really mean that I'm no longer pure? My grandparents were highly religious, after mom died and I had to live with them I had to conform to their rules. Not that it was anything extreme but grandmother had made me vow that I would not lie with someone until I married. That the act itself was sacred and should only be shared by two individual until death… It wasn't my fault, I know that but it doesn't remove this pain.

How is my hue right now? So much for trying not to get it clouded for all those years… If it looks like how I feel it must be pretty bad. It doesn't take long for the exhaustion to take over; all I want to do is sleep and never wake up again. My eyes start to get heavy, I try to fight it but what's the use and I just give in…

Chapter 8.5

Kougami

"Alright Shinya. The memory scoop was a success." Finally, I didn't think the memory scoop would have taken so long.

"How many faces to we have?" I ask as I do a quick stretch.

Shion switches computer screen by rolling on her chair, quickly hitting the keyboard making several pictures disappear. "I removed the duplicates and the women. In total we now have a forty-three faces to go by, is there one in particular Shinya that stroke you as a possibility?"

"Yeah him. Professor Mako Fukushima." I answer as I point him out. He'd be the logical choice too; he fits the age group professor Saiga gave us.

"What makes you think it's this guy?"

"He wasn't present during our first year. He thought Biology back when we were in high school but Gino and I never got him as our teacher. Right after Gino's mother died, he entered the picture." It wasn't after I started the memory scoop and reached that part of my memories that he hit me as odd. The first time he ever interacted with Gino was at his mother's funeral. He spoke to Gino but I don't know what he was saying other that Gino never spoke to him back and only had a lost expression during the whole ceremony. Afterwards he's often in my memories, always talking to Gino and I never really noticed before either and what I find odd is that Gino never told me anything about it.

"His profile says that he still teaches there." Shion states as she quickly goes through his information.

"Send the information to Risa. Get her to pick him up and I'll see what Akane managed to get." I say as I start walking away.

"Already ahead of you." Of course she is.

"Are we still going to get Izaya to look at the pictures?" She ask and I stop at the entrance to answer.

"Yeah that was the original plan so we'll stick with it anyway." Otherwise it would have been pointless of getting a snap of all the faces.

I leave Shion's so called office and make my way through the empty hall in search of Akane. It didn't take too long to find her, sitting with Kagari in the lobby with a few files at hand.

"Hey Kou!" Kagari waves as I join them, taking a seat next to Akane.

"Find anything?" I ask.

"I think so. These files are unsolved but the kills were kind of brutal compared to the five other ones." She says as she shows me. The first victim had his guts removed, by the autopsy he was still alive when he was cut open which led him to bleed to death. The victim was seventeen at the time of death. The second victim had his wrists cut open and the cause of death was of a hemorrhagic shock due to the blood lost. This victim was nineteen, actually he turned nineteen three days before his death and the last victim was killed by getting throat slashed open, cause of death was the same as the others and he was twenty-five.

"I think they might be connected because of the cause of death. It was like the criminal was trying to find a way to extract the victim's blood out." Akane points out.

"I'd say they are look at the victim's date of birth. If they had lived these victims would be the same age as Gino and I." That's too suspicious to be just coincidental.

"Did you know any of them Kougami?" She asks.

"Yeah. They were part of the gang that bullied Gino back in high school." I reply as I close the files. "This man probably began killing by attacking people that caused Gino any harm in the past. He used them as practice in order to discover what is signature is which we did found out which are the paintings of his victims painted with their own blood. When that was done he began experimenting with individuals similar to Gino, trying to perfect his technique."

Kagari scratches his head; I can tell he's trying to figure more out of his own but can't get any further. "Kou you make it sound like this guy was perfecting his method in order to drain blood but not kill."

"Yeah and if that's the case it means our situation just changed." If Fukushima is our guy and he took Gino, killing him probably isn't even in his thoughts. He's been killing Gino's so called enemy, thinking that he's righteous…

"Alright inspector Aoyanagi, we'll be right there." Akane didn't have to say anything, we knew what it meant. Risa got Fukushima into custody. I follow Akane to the interrogation room and I barely even recognized the manta first glance. He lost a good amount of weight since the last I saw him over eight years ago, his hair has started greying and his face is starting to show signs of aging. Somehow I remembered him bigger or maybe he was taller than I was back in high school and I outgrew him by a couple of inches.

Risa has already started interrogating him; he doesn't look worried and has that same smile he always had back then. He doesn't seem to be hesitant as he answers Risa's questions. She doesn't waste any time to show him a picture and just then his expression went white as Risa takes out more photos one after another. I guess she's using the: we suspect you of murdering all of these people tactic and one picture catches my eye, its Gino's. After a few minutes, Risa puts the pictures away and exits the interrogation room.

"If it's him he's one hell of a good liar. It's not him." If it's not him then I have no idea who it might even be. I take the file from Risa's hand and enter the interrogation room; much to my surprise Risa didn't say anything to stop me and Akane didn't try to intervene either.

"Shinya, you made it to a detective. Good for you." He says trying to force that same smile but the images he saw affected him more than what he is willing to show.

I take out Gino's picture and place it back in front of him before sitting down. I watch him as he takes the picture in his hands. "You took an interest in Nobuchika Ginoza the moment his mother died. You will tell me what that was about."

"Am I a suspect for that reason? Nobuchika was a brilliant student, who was then filled with grief. I knew he had an interest in flora so I invited him to the gardening club that I directed to help sooth his pain and it helped him greatly. I am guilty for doing my job; I care for all students even those who I have not gotten the privilege to teach." He says handing the picture back to me.

"Gino was abducted right from his home late at night, his dog killed and we know whoever did this killed a lot of people already. Some of the victims are some that used to pick on Gino back in the day, professor anything you know will help."

"The boy barely spoke to me, he came by the greenhouse about five to ten minutes a day, most of the time with little miss Risa. He was quite popular with the ladies of the group." He says.

"Was there any other guys in the gardening club?"

"Yes a matter of fact there was just one other. He joined a week later; he was a big sturdy young man." He says while he was demonstrating with his arms how big this kid was back then.

"Do you remember his name?"

"Strange enough I do not. He was an odd young man, always only interested in what Nobuchika was doing in the greenhouse and he was never able to grow anything." If this is our guy then he'd fit into Izaya's description but he doesn't fit in professor Saiga's. That would give the criminal an age of twenty eight and we know for sure that he's got a total of eight body counts so far and by professor Saiga he could have even more.

"If you saw a picture, would you be able to point him out?"

"Of course, I never forget a face." If we can get Fukushima and Izaya to pick the same picture, we'll have our guy if not it will be two prime suspects. Either way we'll get our guy, the hardest part will be to find him.

All the people that were fighting with the ones who were saying no well they knew what was coming, since they have read my fanfic Bloodstained Night. :3 I'm not even sorry lol.

So originally I was working on a Kougami POV so it would have been a shame to scrap it so I added it as 8.5.
