4 Hours Earlier...

Kai was sitting alone in his cell, listening to the silence around him. He was so bored that it was driving him insane.

Suddenly, however, the door burst open and Mitsuhide and Boris strode in, both with murderous looks on their faces.

Kai suddenly felt afraid, wondering what on earth he had possibly done.

"Thought you could fool us, did you?" Mitsuhide hissed dangerously, before lunging at Kai and grabbing his arms. He pulled him up and began to drag him forcefully towards the door, while Kai screamed through his gag, trying to pull away with all his might. He was shoved out of the room and pulled towards one with a black, metal door, and thrown inside. The room was dark and empty, except for the straight-backed chair at the centre. He was forced down onto it and bound tightly to it with ropes, securing him. He could not move an inch, and could only stare fearfully at the two men who looked thirsty for his blood.

Mitsuhide approached him, and Kai braced himself, but he merely pulled down his gag. Kai breathed fast, gasping for air. Being constantly gagged had prevented him from breathing too freely.

"So, what relationship do you have with Leah? Talk!" Mitsuhide yelled, punching Kai hard in the face.

"Nothing! She doesn't know me! She treats me like you do!" Kai said quickly.

"LIAR!" Mitsuhide bellowed, aiming another fierce punch at Kai.

Kai's cheek was torn on the inside and he spat blood. How the hell had they found out?

"You may lie, Kai, but our surveillance cameras caught you and Leah red-handed. Unless you want to suffer a lot of pain, you'd better spill what you know," said Boris.

"I'll never tell you anything!" Kai said angrily.

Mitsuhide whipped out a long, sharp knife and said: "Very well, don't say we didn't warn you!" His voice was hysterical with insane rage and delight combined together. Grabbing Kai's hair, he wrenched back his head and began to trace a line on his neck with the knife, while Kai did his best not scream. He bit on his lip, desperate not to give them the satisfaction of hearing him cry out, but the pain seared through his neck as the knife cut into it, blood running down from the wound and soaking into the neck of his purple shirt. When Mitsuhide was done, he held the bloody knife close to his chin and hissed: "Does that tickle, or should I make it worse?"

Kai squeezed his eyes shut and inwardly cursed when a tear ran down his sore cheek. Although the cut wasn't deep, it still hurt like hell, and he begged himself not to give in.

"Very well," said Mitsuhide, slamming his head down and carving into the back of his neck. As he did so, he bit into the open wound, sinking his teeth into it and biting down hard, listening to Kai's uncontrollable screams.

"Now will you tell us?" he yelled, his teeth stained with Kai's blood.

"Please...stop it...please..." Kai cried, tears falling uncontrollably from his violet eyes, unable to bear the nauseating pain.

"It looks like you can't take it much more...then how about THIS?" Boris said as he plunged a knife into Kai's arm, twisting it until Kai broke into deafening screams of agony.

"Stop! Stop it! I'm begging you!" Kai bellowed, sobbing madly.

"Who's Leah? Tell us and we'll stop!" Boris ordered.

"She...she just...wants to help me...that's all..." Kai gasped.

"Really? Well I think you're hiding something!" Boris shouted.

"No...really!" Kai insisted desperately.

"We'll see about that! Tell me Kai, do you still love your dear Tsukino?" asked Boris.

Kai's eyes widened at the name, and Boris laughed.

"I'll take that as a yes! So tell me Kai, how would you feel if we were to hurt your precious?" he said with cruel delight.

"No! Leave her out of this! She has nothing to do with this!" Kai yelled, sucking in breaths of air as pain racked his body.

"I might leave her, if you tell us every single thing you know about Leah!" Boris raged, plunging the knife into Kai's thigh.

"Fine!...Just...please stop...!" Kai begged between sobs. He felt terrible for having to betray his only friend like this...

But he had no choice.
