Worlds Collide

Chapter 15

"A woman, huh?" Lucifer raised an eyebrow incredulously. "I can't remember there ever being a time when my son was fixated on anyone in particular. That's very uncharacteristic of him."

"No, I heard him say 'I love her so much'. So not only is he with some bitch, he apparently loves her," Dante said excitedly.

The Devil snorted. "We don't feel love. We are not capable of such feelings."

"Either way, we've got him," Dante pointed out.

"Not quite. We don't know who this mystery woman is....yet. This is where you come in, Dante. I want you to follow Takuya and find out who his 'love' interest is."

The demon smiled, pushing his dirty blond hair out of his face. "With pleasure."

"My son thinking he's in love," Lucifer scoffed. "Absurd. And if he's leaving Hell to see her, then obviously she isn't one of us. A human by the looks of it."

"Humans are disgusting creatures." Dante cringed. "Greedy, self-centered pigs."

Lucifer frowned, his eyes staring down at the floor. "So not only has Takuya defied me by leaving Hell, but he is also sneaking around with some human bitch."

"What are you going to do to him?" Dante grinned in anticipation.

"Nothing."

Dante's smile immediately vanished and his eyes darkened. "Nothing? Why not? He deserves to be punished, sir."

"I will find a suitable punishment for him later. However, until we know more details, we're going to pretend like nothing ever happened."

"You can't be serious! He clearly disobeyed you so therefore-"

"Therefore what?" Lucifer angrily rose from his throne, stalking over to the smaller demon. "Are you doubting my decisions?"

Dante cowered back in fear. "No, of course not, sir. I would never doubt you. I'm just saying-"

The Devil lifted him up by the throat. "Listen here, you back-talking little shit. I am the ruler of Hell, not you. So until you are, which would never go to such a lowly creature like you, don't you ever dare to argue with my decisions again! If you do, I won't hesitate to rip your throat out and leave you to die in a pool of your own blood. Do I make myself clear?"

Dante weakly nodded, unable to breath.

"Do I?!" Lucifer shook him, his eyes turning a dark onyx color.

"Yes," Dante managed to finally rasp out.

Lucifer flung him to the side, his breathing slightly heavier. "Now get out of here and don't come back until you have more information about this woman. Go!"

Dante scrambled out of the room, holding onto his slightly crushed throat.

The Devil walked back over to his throne, his eyes beginning to revert back to their normal crimson color. "Ungrateful bastard....He's lucky that I don't send someone else for the mission. Next time he talks back he won't live long enough to beg for another chance."

The next morning

Takuya paced around, unable to contain his excitement. Dammit, you idiot. Control yourself. Do you want to get caught?

"No," he muttered to himself.

Then cool it already. You'll see her tonight like you usually do. Only this time, maybe you should do something special for her.

"But what?" He quietly asked aloud.

You'll think of something. Just stay calm before you blow it.

"Takuya?"

"What?" He called out, more sharply than he meant to.

Kouji entered his room, an eyebrow raised. "You okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine," he replied, regaining his composure. "What's up?"

"Having trouble with the new guy. No matter what we do to him, he won't crack."

Takuya frowned. "Well, that's not right. Let's fix this problem."

"Figured that you were the right sicko for the job," Kouji quipped as he led him down the corrider.

"So, is he in a denial or something?" Takuya asked.

Kouji shook his head. "No, he's just a flat-out maniac. He's begging us for more, no matter how gruesome the tortures are."

Takuya smirked. "This should be fun."

They entered the private chamber specially reserved for the disturbed man inside. There was a group of demons surrounding the restrained human, Kouichi and J.P. amongst the small crowd.

"Get out!" Takuya barked. "I'll take care of this guy."

Within seconds the room had cleared, leaving him alone with victim.

"Oh, another one to play with me," the man said excitedly as he licked his lips. "Wanna screw around with my mind some more, huh?"

His eyes were wide and bloodshot, and trails of blood streamed down his thin body in rivers.

"Welcome to Hell," Takuya said. "But I'm sure you've already been given the welcome wagon."

"My name is Leo," the man voluntarily told him. "What's your name?"

The brunette smirked. "Takuya."

"Oh, I've heard so much about you." Leo laughed, the chains holding him to the wall jingling with his movements. "I know all about the way you mindfuck your victims. You gonna mindfuck me, too? Huh?"

"I don't know," Takuya replied, shrugging. "Depends on my mood."

Leo smiled as a line of drool ran down his chin. "Pain is only as real as you make it out to be, you know."

"Oh, really?" Takuya raised an eyebrow. "I hope you know that the pain you'll be dealing with here is very real."

"Nothing is real," the man cried out delusionally. "We are all just a figment of each other's minds. You are not real, but to me you are. I don't really exist, but your brain makes you think that I do."

Takuya pulled out a knife. "If we don't actually exist, then this shouldn't hurt a bit."

Leo chuckled as Takuya swept the blade across his bare arm, peeling his skin off.

"The pain isn't real, but the knife is," Leo told him. "You don't exist, but these chains do."

Wow, this dude really is nut-job, Takuya thought, amused by his antics.

"Don't worry, Leo." The son of Satan grinned. "I'll prove you wrong against your theory. I'll show you that you exist, that I exist, and that the pain is as real as it can get. I'll change your mind soon enough, with one ribbon of skin at a time."

"Go ahead, my skin isn't real. It's all just a part of the figment of your imagination."

Leo's smiled widened as the blade skimmed over his skin once again.

"Oohhh, this feels so good. More! Give me more!"

Takuya peeled his skin away, ribbons at a time, while the man laughed maniacally. Leo licked at the blood dripping down his face, enjoying the coppery taste of it.

"More! Mindfuck me while you're at it. Mindrape me like you do to everyone else! Destroy my unreal physical body as well as my imaginary mentality!"

The brunette frowned, sawing away at the man's body.

Leo laughed. "Yes! That's the stuff right there! Hack away at my bones while you're at it. Saw them to dust!"

"Pain goes much deeper than the physical and mental parts of a body," Takuya said icily, feeling his body heat up.

"Not if it doesn't exist!" The man taunted. "None of this is real! We live in our own worlds of denial, only thinking that we actually live. We can't be dead inside, because you have to live before you die!"

Takuya's eyes turned crimson. "Just shut the fuck up or I'll hack your fingers and toes off next."

"Do it! Castrate me! Gouge out my eyes! And where is that famous mindfucking?! Come on, pussy! Make me lose the sanity I never had!"

"Fuck you!" Takuya hacked his thumb off.

Leo watched in fascination as blood squirted out of the stump. "Lovely! More!"

"Shut the fuck up!" The son of Satan felt his rage escalating. "You fucking sicko...."

"Am I sick? Or do you just think that I am? You're pathetic!" Leo's laughs become louder. "You can't break me!"

Takuya let the knife clatter to the floor, his hands tightly clenching into fists. Within seconds, they were ignited with fire. He drove his fists into Leo's chest, letting the heat melt and char his flesh.

"Is that the best you can do?!"

Takuya became more enraged with each passing moment. He pummeled the chained-up man, leaving deep holes in his body from the force. Leo only smiled, coughing up a mouthful of blood every so often.

"Come on, asshole! You can do better than that! Mindfuck me while you're at it!"

The brunette's eyes suddenly returned back to their normal color and he smiled. "You want me to mindfuck you?"

"Yes!" Spit sprayed out of Leo's mouth in a mist. "Do it!"

"I don't have to," Takuya said softly. "I already have."

Leo's smile faltered. "What do you mean?"

"You're right. None of this is real. I haven't really burned you, or skinned you, or sawed away at your bones. You're actually at home, in bed. Fast asleep."

"I don't exist! I don't have a home or a bed!"

"Oh, but you do. The torturing I just did to you didn't even happen. It's all a part of your imagination. There are other means of screwing with you, none of which directly involve me," Takuya said. "The tortures didn't exist, but you do. And I brought everything I needed here."

The man twitched. "What do you mean?"

"Everyone has a fear and yours is very real, as are you. So I decided to help you regain your sense of reality by your childhood fear."

A loud growl was suddenly heard from next to him. Leo's eyes swept over to the side, only to see a demonic canine bare its fangs at him. It resembled a german shepard, only three times as large and a thick black coat of fur. Dried blood covered the barking animal, foam spraying from its jowls. The bloody man gulped, shuddering at the monster before him. His childhood fear of dogs came rushing back to him like a wildfire.

"No! It's not real! I'm not real, dogs aren't real! You aren't real!"

"Oh, but it is," Takuya hissed. "You aren't affected by reality, but nightmares are different. They go much deeper than real fear itself. Welcome to your nightmare, or as I should say, your unreal doom."

From outside the closed door, the group of demons listened intently. Leo's anguished screams bounced off the walls and echoed in their ears. Loud barks and the sickening splatters of blood could be heard as well.

"No matter how psycho the prisoner is," Kouji began with a sigh. "Takuya will always one-up them."

takuya can be pretty damn psychotic huh? i love it! yay for insane takuya! yeah, none of this probably made any sense, but it wasnt supposed to cuz the guys a lunatic and doesn't register anything. but then again i understood it cuz im a lunatic too. takuya actually did torture him, but tricked him so he would go insane. takuya didn't want this guy to make him look bad, so he tried a different approach. and i think it worked ^_^ anyway, that wraps up another chapter so let me know how you liked it, okay? please review and give me something to live for. also, whoever understood what just happened and is a lunatic say 'I'

me, takuya and leo: I!

now everyone else who didnt understand it but is still a lunatic say 'I'

everyone else: I!
