Chapter Nine: Enemies Are Closer
"But I am very much looking forward to seeing that boy's reaction..."
Giese reached down and placed one hand on Judai's cheek, the other right at his chest. The hand on Judai's cheek traced one of the scratches and touched Judai's pale lips. A very weak unconscious moan, almost unnoticeable, came from Judai's throat.
Giese's other hand traveled to Judai's chest and down his stomach, running over Judai's pale frame and down his pants. His hands found the zipper to Judai's pants and started to fiddle with it, gradually pulling it down.
"When he finds out that you, the boy he loves..."
Giese unzipped Judai's pure white jeans and pulled them down, along with Judai's boxers. Fortunately, Judai's partially opened Osiris red school jacket and black button-up shirt was long enough to cover up Judai's private areas, just enough so that they were out of sight.
A wicked smirk touched Giese's lips, a dark chuckle escaping his lips.
"Has been taken by another man..."
"Judai-!"
It was as if all the weight of the horrified, concerned, and ill feelings within Johan's body were weighing the bluenette down, and that he wasn't going as fast as he could do if Johan wasn't worried sick about his beloved.
Johan glanced down and spotted a small tent in the distance. He could feel a sharp pulsate of energy, and he knew that he was close to Judai. Judai was somewhere in this area.
Judai-! Hang on! I'm coming! Johan thought.
Johan made a mad dash for the small tent near the abandoned dorms. He knew that Judai was close. He could feel the boy's energy close by, and he could sense that Judai was in danger. Something had happened.
Before Johan got too close to the tent, he heard a small, familiar noise.
"Rubi! Rubii-!"
"What?" Johan turned and spotted a small red light rushing at him from the forest. When it truly appeared, the bluenette noticed that the red light was attached to a small purple cat with wide red eyes.
Johan felt his heart almost stop. "R-Ruby?" he breathed.
"Rubi!" the duel spirit came rushing from the direction of the tent and leaped into Johan's arms. Johan clenched the duel spirit close, whispering how thankful he was to see her.
Ruby wiggled from her master's embrace and locked eyes with him. Johan noticed that she looked scared.
"What is it? What's wrong, girl?" Johan asked.
Ruby turned her head in the direction of the tent. "Rubi! Ru-rubi!" she squeaked, bouncing up and down. Johan blinked in confusion as Ruby continued to squeak and point.
"Wait... you saw Judai?" Johan asked in surprise. Ruby nodded quickly. "Where is he? What's happened to him?"
Johan set Ruby on the ground, and Ruby started squeaking and jumping up and down even faster. It looked like she was pantomiming something, but she was squeaking so fast that Johan couldn't make out what she was trying to tell him. Johan knew that Ruby knew what was happening to Judai, or what had happened.
Only issue...
She was speaking too fast for Johan to understand!
"What are you saying?" Johan asked.
Ruby gave a loud snort, as if she were sighing, and then she started squeaking and stomping her foot, as if trying to tell Johan something. But Johan didn't understand, he was was incensed (A.K.A. PISSED OFF!)
"Dammit!" Johan roared. "I don't have time for charades! I have to go find Judai!"
He turned on his heel and dashed away from the duel spirit. Ruby squeaked loudly and snorted, shaking her head as if to say: "Well, you can't blame a girl for trying, right?"
She soon dashed right after her master, still squeaking loudly.
Back at the tent, Giese finished putting on his clothes and glanced down at the ground. He knelt beside his "prize", and felt a dark grin touching his lips. He smirked and drew back.
"Judai-!"
Giese glanced over his shoulder as a familiar voice rang clearly through the nighttime air.
He rose to his feet and dusted himself off, heading towards the source of the voice. He stole one last glance at the figure laying on the ground, weakly panting raggedly, and then quickly averted his attention back to the tent flap.
Johan dashed into the area of the camp, eyes wild with terror.
"Judai!" he cried out. His face and neck were covered with sweat from running so fast, and he felt as if his heart weighed a ton. He panted heavily and glanced around quickly.
His eyes widened as Giese seemed to come out of nowhere, standing before the large white tent.
"Andersen," Giese said with an amused grin. "I could have sworn that you were still at Duel Academy." He felt a dark chuckle escape his lips. "You seem to be doing well. For a person who just has their favorite duel spirit, and part of their family, stolen, of course."
Johan grit his teeth in rage.
He hated this man. This man who had ruined his life, who had caused so many people grief, who had captured a member of his family and made Johan think that she was dead. He hated him.
"You... fucking..."
Johan balled his hand into a fist, gripping so hard that he felt blood dripping down his nails, and ran at Giese as fast as he could, which was a bit faster than he thought he could go.
"BASTARD!"
Johan's fist barely missed Giese, but Giese's fist didn't miss Johan. He slammed it into the boy's stomach, and Johan instantly gagged up a slight amount of blood.
"Sadly, I can't let you run around with all that energy today, Andersen," Giese said.
Johan slumped to his knees, arm pressed against his stomach to keep the pain from increasing. Giese turned his gaze away from the bluenette and he started to walk away.
"If you are looking for that boy, he's behind the curtains over there," Giese said, motioning to the tent. Giese carefully started walking a bit quicker, stealing a small glance at Johan.
Johan was coughing and still on his knees. Giese smiled. He obviously must have hit him hard enough to keep him down for a little while. It would give him some escape time.
"I must say, I admire his pale, smooth skin, Andersen," he said with a dark grin.
Johan's emerald eyes widened when he heard this. He snapped his head up, albiet weakly, and glanced in Giese's direction. "W-what?" he breathed in horror.
Giese smiled wickedly. "I thought that he would be more of a child, but his body is that of a lovely young man," he said with a dark chuckle, filled with malice and hatred.
Johan felt a cold, horrified feeling wash over him. He shuddered and could think nothing but horrible thoughts as Giese started to walk away ever so quickly. Johan grit his teeth angrily.
"W-what... did you do... to him?" he whispered.
The cold feeling washed over his entire body. Images of his beloved Judai kept flashing through his mind. What had happened to Judai? Johan snapped a glare up at Giese, his eyes filled with nothing but hatred.
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO TO JUDAI-?" he hollered.
Johan was instantly to his feet, and he rushed at Giese with his fist ready to slam into the man's face.
Giese was quick enough to avoid it, for the most part, but Johan's hand scraped against his cheek. Giese felt his skin burning, like a flame had been lit right where Johan's hand had grazed.
Giese leaped back with a horrified yelp, taking off into the darkness of the forest.
Johan started to pursue after him, but stopped when he realized that he had no lead to go off by. He glanced down at his hand in shock, where he had felt a similar burning, but he wasn't burned, like Giese was.
"Did I really just do something like that on my own?" he asked aloud.
Suddenly, the same cold realization washed over him, and Johan heard Ruby squeaking and jerking her head towards the flap of the white tent, jumping up and down in urgency.
"That's right! Judai!" Johan turned and dashed for the tent as quickly as he could.
Me: Oh no! What did Giese do to Judai?
Lucy: We better pray that Giese didn't do anything to him, because if he did, God knows what Johan and Yubel are going to end up doing to him! That bastard! How dare he!
Me: What's going to happen next? Read on if you wish to find out!
Lucy: Please review nicely and we'll update!
