Sorry for taking so long to update. I planned to update it a week ago but my beta didn't give any respond. So this chapter was un-beta. Sorry for grammar mistakes.
I was in the middle my biggest exam of my life. I still had a few weeks to finish. It will end on 27th of October. After that I officially graduated from high school. I will have time to update more chapters. Hihihi.
Anyway, I don't really know how many chapters this story will be. I already had the basic plot. If there is something that you want to happen in this story feel free to suggest.
Enjoy the story…. And I don't own JR or SIH
Chapter 20: The darkness~ Get down feel weak…
Ritsu made his way to the last room. He slowly put the bucket down on the floor, opening the door.
"Misaki-sama, I'm back…" His jade eyes darted toward the blue-hair man lying on the cold floor. This sent a sudden shiver and immediately he screamed in horror. The scream alone echoed thoroughly in the hallway, sending an immediate emergency to the others.
Flipping through the papers, Takano who heard the scream, immediately, stashed the papers away and dashed toward the sound. "Ritsu!"
Upon hearing his name, the shock boy turned to the back, "Takano-sama, Nowaki-san…he- he di-ed…" Feeling sad and devastated, Ritsu slowly fell to the floor, but was stopped in time by Takano. Takano held the boy in his embrace while Ritsu buried his face in the man's brood chest. His fingers clutched tightly the man's shirt. His eyes felt like it was stung by a scorpion, teary and painful.
"Ritsu… don't cry…please" Taken back with the pledge, Ritsu sobbed softly and quietly. While calming his young lover, Takano scanned the room for the other brunette. But he could only see the broken window while the wind ruffled softly between the cracks. The sudden cough caught his attention. And when the supposedly dead man opened his eyes, the lovers yelped in shock.
"Nowaki-san!" Ritsu crawled to the man and looked into the man orbs. His gold eyes shone in the darkness of the night.
"Rit…su-kun, h-e to- ok Misa-chan." Trying to tell about the situation, Nowaki breathed shallowly. He held his stabbed chest, chanting slowly some healing spell to ease the pounding pain.
"Misaki-sama was taken! Who is he!?" Ritsu helped the man to sit up.
"Usami Haruhiko…"
"What!?" The quiet Takano gasped in horror. 'No way…'
"Is he Akihiko's brother?" Ritsu asked between the conversations. He once had seen the Usami's family picture. He remembered the stoic looking figure with the black eyes.
"Yes… the one who supposedly dead right now…" Takano answered but still thinking on the topics. The situation did not make any sense as he was told that Akihiko was the only Usami's member who survived the assassination. Unless…
"Nowaki-kun, do you know where that man took Misaki away?"
"Sorry… I don't really sure but I think he was taken to the castle as before I passed out, I heard that the man told Misaki that he will meet his beloved. That I presume will be Akihiko-san. He was in the castle, right?" Nowaki darted his eyes to the two men, his hand still on the wound.
"Ano… Nowaki-san, are you ok? I really thought that you were already dead when I entered the room. Sorry if I hurt your feeling…" Ritsu started walking to the round table and snatched a clean cloth under the pile. He brought the bucket of water inside and poured into a small container with the help from Takano.
" Actually, he stabbed my heart but I managed to chant a protective spell before that so the attack doesn't kill me." Nowaki tear his shirt near the wound. Ritsu helped to clean the wound and dress it.
"Anyway, we have to inform Akihiko-kun. We don't know what hell that Usami will do to Misaki. Ritsu, I will leave Nowaki-kun under your care." Takano stood up and walked away.
~In the castle~
A soft autumn breeze ruffled softly from the crack of the glass window. Misaki was happily running towards his parents. His delightful face with a sweet smiling face somehow was killed by the dreadful atmosphere, changing from the sweet autumn time to a black winter day. Suddenly, a gust of heavy wind sent the boy stumbled on the floor.
"You were such a burden! Because of you, we lost our life. A brat like you doesn't disserve to live!" A brown hair woman came straight to the boy and looked into the boy's eyes with disgust.
Heavy footsteps made the boy glanced to the side, his eyes still wide in shock. "Misaki… do you know what happen to a bad boy? They will get punishments." The blue hair man smiled softly although ironically the angelic smile disguised from the evil grin.
"Brat, because of you, I have to stop studying. Do you not know that I was very tired just to take care of you! You robbed my perfect life. If only you were not born to this world!" Misaki averted his sight to the back. His brother wrapped his arms, looking annoyed towards the boy.
Misaki was speechless. Deep down in his teen heart he knew that he had crushed the life of once he called family. Now looking to the disgust face of his family, he heart felt like it had being stabbed by thousand needles, throbbing the most merciless pain he never had. His small heart felt like a spider crawling, at any time he could die from a sudden sting from the incest.
"Yeah just die!"
"We don't need you!"
"I wish you never born to this world!"
Misaki covered his ears not wanting to hear that such cruel words. He already suffered from losing his family.
"Just die!"
"We don't want you!"
"You were such a BURDEN!
"STOP! Please STOP!" Misaki screamed on top of his voice trying to ignore the cruel words. The tears already started to flow down from his emerald eyes. The crystal like tears came flowing down slowly until it reached the black floor. Misaki wrapped his knees to his body. He cried and cried, emptying his heat content.
"Why I have to suffer like this…"
"Misaki… Misaki…"
The soft whisper echoed around. The faint voice somehow woke up the sleeping boy. Misaki slowly darted his teary closed eyes, but the sudden faint light blinded him for seconds. He shut his eyes immediately seconds before he opened them again. A small blue flame greeted him with the top of the fire wavered slowly as if it had been ruffled by soft breeze. Misaki scanned the surrounding, surprised to see unfamiliar darkness around. He darted his eyes back to the fire, the only source of light in this world.
"Misaki…Misaki…"
The chocolate-hair boy, gulped. He never experienced this kind of situation so he could not help himself to be a little bit afraid of the flame.
"It's you who call me, blue flame?" Misaki uttered slowly under his breath, trying to find an answer for his situation.
"Yes… it's my pleasure to help you… Akihiko-sama had helped my kinds many times. We were really grateful to be on his service…" Slowly, the small light doubled itself. This process continued until there was a ring of blue fire around him.
"What!? What happened here!? Misaki swayed his body around, making a round circle.
"Don't be afraid. We were trying to help you… Akihiko-sama asked us to guard you…" The early fire spoke. However, the brunette still doubted the creature.
"It's ok if you were still doubt us…Misaki-sama. I just want you to wake up from this world of darkness. This nightmare should end… Do you remember what happened so far…?
Immediately the memory slashed between his conscious. Started with the killing… then, with the abduction…and the nightmare…
"Open your eyes, Misaki-sama… Your existence is not match to this dark world. This nightmare has to be stop…" Immediately after that, a sudden gust of winds swirled around Misaki making his eyes flung open in shock. The sudden ray of light from the full moon blinded him. Slowly he popped his eyes opened and scanned the surrounding. The solemn dark room greeted him. He raised his body up just to be stopped by a pair of chains handcuffed his both wrists.
"What the hell is this chain for…" Misaki pulled the chains, trying to snap the chains off but he was nowhere near that. The strong metal bonded him to the bed. He scanned the room once more but just like a moment ago, only darkness could be seen around.
CREACKKKKK…
Like knowing the door was the source of the sound, Misaki averted his eyes toward the dark space that he assumed to be the door of the room. He waited patiently for whatever the creature could came out from the door although his heart pumped like it might burst in seconds. The pounding sound echoed in his mind together with sound of the heavy footsteps.
"You awaked. I'm impressed that you manage to break the nightmare's spell." A man voice could be heard by the short distance between the black figure and the scare boy.
"You…" Misaki was lost in words, his heart pumped fastly. With the chains attached to him, he felt very helpless and weak. Then, the sudden fluff of black clouds moved away, casting a bright ray of moonlight in the room. Immediately, Misaki realized just who the stranger is.
"USAMI HARUHIKO!" Misaki covered his mouth regret to call the man. After all, he was the one who kill Nowaki.
"I'm happy to know that you remember me…" Haruhiko sat on the bed, crossing his legs and gazed to the boy. His expression was unreadable. However, this action had caused Misaki to flinch in fear. He quite familiar with what Haruhiko can and might do to him.
Haruhiko let himself a small chuckle, seeing the boy's action. He was like a small kitten, scared because was cornered up by a dog. He chuckled more thinking that he was the dog.
Stretching his hand out to the boy, Haruhiko tried to caress the soft cheek but Misaki moved his face every time Haruhiko want to touch him. " Misaki…" with a low voice, he whispered. "You better not make me angry…" Misaki flinched in shock and fear, hearing the low yet deadly whisper that sending him messages to stop doing what he had done. Haruhiko ran his fingers softly and this time he succeeded. Misaki just let the man to touch him as he don't want to spill more oil to the burning fire.
"Good boy… no wonder Akihiko was really attached to you…" Haruhiko lifted the boy's chin with his fingers, locking their gaze together. Misaki just stared the man's eyes, wandering the different colors that these two brothers had. He just kept thinking on what the lavender one was doing right now. He really hated to admit it but he was really missed Usagi very much. Sometimes watching him from far was already enough for him but now… he really wanted to cuddle himself in that man's embrace.
"From your eyes, I can tell that you missed Akihiko. But I don't plan to give you back to Akihiko. Maybe…" Slowly Haruhiko ran his fingers starting from Misaki's face, tracing along the boy's neck and his torso. "I wonder what your blood taste…" Misaki could see the beaming crimson eyes replacing the brown eyes. The red color that he always see in the eyes of his Usagi.
Immediately, Misaki was pushed back to the soft mattress. The sound of the bed's creak and the clacking of the metal chains echoed between them as Haruhiko tried to tear the boy's shirt. Misaki fought the man, trying to resist the lustful man. However, his small body could never withstand the strong one, just his hands was tied down already making his situation become worst.
"Hufh… You surely were a fierce brat." Haruhiko pinned down the boy's arms with his left hand while his other hand gripped the boy collar, tearing them off with one move.
"St-top don't. What are you doing?" Misaki screamed as the man slowly descended to him. Misaki could see the sharp fangs of that man and his heart kept pounded his husband's name. The sudden pain from his neck made the boy shrieked in pain. Haruhiko penetrated deeper into the soft flesh, enjoying the taste of the red liquid. He sucked the prick and licked the flowing blood, not wanting to waste any single drop of that delicious delicacy. Misaki on the other hand fought the urge to scream as the pain really killed him alive. His way was totally different than when Usagi was feeding on him. This time it was like a moment of hell.
"Your blood surely was delicious. And what your body will taste like, I think I know the answer already…" Haruhiko slowly unzipped the boy's pants and tore the remaining cloth that hanging from Misaki's body. Misaki just lay down on the mattress, trying to control his tears from fall down. His head screamed for him to run but with the chains and the man on top of him, he felt weak and disgusted, as he could not save his own life.
"Misaki… It's time for my desert…" Haruhiko pushed the boy's long pants leaving the underwear only. Misaki could feel the cold night breeze caressed his exposed half-naked body. He looked to the man, scared, as he knows what will happen after this. He just prayed that Usagi would not hate him after this.
Get down you know the worst,
Fell down, feel weak
Right Now…
~End of Chapter 20~
