Whumptober 25 - Restraints

This is set a couple months after the first chapter. Obs cuz now Noel is here. I am not up to date, last ep I saw was somewhere in the 20's. Anyway, hope you enjoy!

Just tell me where the Lupin Collection pieces are going," a gangler kicked at Lupin Red who was chained to a wall.

"Never."

"You'll tell me, or I'll make your life a living nightmare."

"Do it," Kairi hissed.

"What about I give you a bit more time to think about it? Make sure that's the answer you really want to go with." The gangler left, leaving Kairi still dangling by his wrists.

He tried to feel the restraints but he couldn't figure a way out. He hoped his team, or even his boyfriends team, would find him quickly. He didn't want to find out what the gangler had in store.

Hours later, the gangler came back. "Still don't want to talk?"

Kairi stayed silent making the gangler send an attack at him. Sparks hit him and he felt like fire was engulfing his body. Once the pain died down he opened his eyes to find the gangler up close and staring.

"You want to feel more of that?"

Kairi sighed, "I don't know where they go."

"You take them, you can't say you don't know."

"Well, it's true."

"I think we'll have to push it out of you then," the gangler started antoher attack. Lupin Red felt pain radiating through his body, making him feel like he was going to explode from the inside out. Finally though, he felt his senses dimming and the world around him blurring to a halt.

"You are pretty weak, aren't you?" the gangler laughed as Kairi came back to consciousness. "If you can't tell me, maybe I could at least trade you for some of the pieces."

"They'd never give them to you."

"Not even for their precious leader?"

"No. We have a deal, they won't give up on our goal just to save me."

"I was told you would be a good one to take, that you'd get me information. Apparently they were wrong. I can think of one use for you though," he laughed.

Kairi once again felt like he was on fire, pain erupting in his chest. His mind wandered away from the pain questioning if maybe if he did die, would he get to see his brother again? Soon the black fog overtook his mind again and his body fell completely limp, putting all his weight on the wrist restraints.

Kairi next awoke hearing slow beeping noises. His eyebrows scrunched at the noise, confused at what it was. He finally opened his eyes and realized it was a heartrate monitor. Soon, three people entered the room.

"Kairi!" Umika smiled as she sat next to him, "have you been awake long?"

He looked at the faces around him and shook his head, "What happened?"

"You were found in front of the GSPO, still in disguise," Noel assured, "with a warning note to stay away from them."

Kairi gave a soft chuckle, "really? That's all he could think of?"

After they gave him a confused look he informed, "I wouldn't tell him what he wanted and told him you wouldn't trade me for a collection piece, so he said he had one last idea. Thought it would be cleverer than a warning note."

"You might have some trouble for a while," Touma told their leader.

"Whatever he did put a big strain on your heart," Umika added. "Plus, your wrists were pretty tore up."

Kairi just nodded, "I'll be back up and kicking gangler ass in no time."

Before they could say more the Patrangers came in the room.

Kairi smiled at Keiichiro who looked super worried, "I would have been here sooner but I couldn't get away from work."

"It's ok, Keii-chan."

"How are you feeling?" Tsukasa wondered.

Kairi thought for a second before admitting, "sleepy."

"I wonder if Lupin Red is in the hospital?" Sakuya's mind wandered. The entire rest of the room stared at him in shock. He decided to tell the bistro workers, "I found him outside the GSPO earlier."

Umika raised an eyebrow and looked at Tsukasa, "is he really that stupid?"

"It would seem so."

"What?" Sakuya worried.

"It's nothing, Sakuya," Noel chuckled, "I'm sure Lupin Red is fine wherever he is."

"I can't believe he was dropped off to us and we still didn't arrest him," Sakuya said confused.

"Yeah sounds like you had a great opportunity," Kairi smirked.

"I wanted to unmask him but the other Lupinrangers appeared and got him before I could."

"Such a shame," Kairi shook his head yawning.

"Sounds like you need to rest more," Keiichiro analyzed, "We'll get out of here for now." He kissed the top of Kairi's head.

Kairi's team followed after them, "We'll be back in a little bit."

He smiled as he drifted off to sleep, honestly a little surprised he hadn't gotten arrested, but happy knowing the Lupin Collection was still safe.
