Chapter Seven: In Deep Trouble
"If you try to struggle, this could get... painful for you," Giese warned.
He drew back a bit and flashed Judai a wicked grin.
"I am a man who has made himself vulnerable just for you. I expect you to show me a good time now, my dear," Giese said with a dark and malicious chuckle. "And now, I am able to finally reap my reward."
Judai's eyes went wide, his pupils narrowing in horror. H-he knew I was going to come to get the card back. He planned this whole God-damned thing! How did he know I would be coming to get Ruby's card back?
When Judai finally got over his state of horror, he was able to rush at Giese.
He hollered a battle cry, only to crash into an energy barrier and be thrown back a good distance. He hit his back against the tent wall, which was surprisingly hard. Judai slumped to his knees weakly, his chest rising and falling with heavy pants.
Giese folded his arms across his muscle-bound chest, eyebrow raised in amusement. "What's wrong?" he challenged. "I thought you wanted that card back."
Judai growled, forced himself to his feet, and then dashed at Giese again. Giese used the energy shield to throw the little duelist back a good few feet, enough to slam him into the tent wall. This time, Giese used his energy to bind Judai to the wall. Judai felt his arms and legs get slammed against the wall so that he wasn't able to even struggle or move anymore.
Ugh... He's way too strong, Judai thought.
He glanced up and saw Giese standing before him just a little.
The evil hunter of the Duel spirits was just staring at him, and he tapped his chin in thought. Giese slowly raised his hand. "That's enough toying with you," he said.
He snapped his fingers, and used his energy to tear the front of Judai's Osiris red school jacket and his shirt wide open, revealing the brunette's pale, flawless chest.
Judai gasped as his shirt and Osiris jacket were popped open, and the beaded necklace that Asuka and Rei had made for him snapped off, the colored beads scattering off, or most of them, the rest falling to the floor, still attacked to the red string that held the small home-made necklace together.
Judai could feel the horror shudder through him, and deep within his mind, he was hollering for Johan.
His love, his shelter, his protection from this mad man.
Johan, who was a good ways off from the tent where Judai and Giese were, felt a sudden cold jolt burst through his body. The bluenette stopped and glanced up at the dark night sky, as if expecting it to start storming any moment.
Judai? he mentally yelled.
He glanced around quickly, his heart racing. He could feel a cold terror jolting through him, but it was not from his own worries. It was from his beloved, the one he had sworn to protect even if it cost him his life.
Johan could feel waves of terror coming from Judai's energy. Somehow, Johan was always able to tell when Judai was calling for him, or even when Judai was wanting him.
But the fact that Johan could feel the sorrow and terror emitting from Judai's energy, which was so far away, and the fact that he was not there to protect his beloved from whatever was scaring him, made it all the worse. Johan could feel the horror in his body swelling, and his heart felt like it weighed a ton.
Something had happened.
Something was happening to his beloved Judai.
"Where?" Johan whispered. He closed his dark eyes and glanced to the dark night time sky, not bothering to hide the worry in his gaze. "Where are you, Judai!" Johan hollered to the skies.
Back at the tent, Judai shuddered as Giese closed in on him. He let the tears fill his dulling brown eyes, and he let his quaking shoulders, now revealed by the fact that his shirt and jacket were starting to fall off, keep on quaking.
"N-no..." Judai whispered.
He saw Giese lift his hand and reach for his revealed chest. The tears of horror increased.
"S-stay away! No!"
Johan immediately pushed any stray thoughts to the back of his mind and headed in the very faint direction of Judai's energy. He grit his teeth and hoped to any gods; whether they be from his religion or another religion; that he would make it in time to save Judai from whatever was scaring him.
"Judai-!" Johan hollered.
Judai squeezed his eyes shut and allowed the countless tears to leak their way down his pale cheek, mixing with the small amount of blood and scratches that added some color to his face.
Johan-!
Me: No! Judai's in danger! And he can't fight back because if Giese's new powers! So his only chance is for Johan or Yubel to come and rescue him before Giese does something terrible!
Lucy: What is going to happen? Will Johan come and save him?
Me: And will Yubel make an appearance? If you all wish to find out, review and we will update as soon as possible when we have a few reviews on each chapter!
Lucy: Please review nicely and we'll update!
