Fallen Skies

All One Piece Character belong to Oda

A/N: I just wanted to say sorry for any misspelled words or grammar.

It has been three months since Maya's death. Everything seemed to have changed since then. Maybe because we finally understood they could and will kill us if they wanted to. Each time we heard the doors open, all talking, all action would stop. All eyes were on the door, our hearts pounding, hoping and praying we would live to see another day.

"Roronoa Zoro."

Zoro was with Saga, the older of the two showing Zoro some musical notes, something he learnt before being sent to live in the orphanage. The green hair child looked up to the man who had called his name. "Sade has called for you."

Zoro looked at Saga with a puzzled expression before answering the man. "But it's not Thursday."

"I said she has called for you. Either you come willingly or I will force you to come."

Saga glared at the man. He knew Sade was a sadist, who loved to torture. But never has she called anyone on a random day like she was doing now. "Be careful Zoro."

"Yeah..."

Standing up, Zoro made his way to where the broad man was standing. The staff closed the door after he passed, chained Zoro's hands and feet as they made their way to where Sade was. They stopped at a door. "She seems upset today; just telling you ahead of time- so don't get her any more stirred." With that said, the man shoved Zoro inside.

Sade was inside the room, sitting by her desk, her eyes closed. Zoro didn't say anything as he stood there, waiting to see what Sade wanted. Zoro flinched when he heard Sade speak. "So you're not going to say anything, boy?"

Zoro swallowed before answering. "Did you want me to say something, Sade?"

"You're too far, why don't you come over here?" Sade gestured with one finger.

Even though his body wanted to run, his mind pleading for him to not go, Zoro knew that he had to obey her. If he didn't things could get worst. Zoro stopped when he was about three feet from her.

Sade slowly stood up from her chair; she walked towards Zoro, a smile on her lips. "I just couldn't help notice how much you have changed since you've been here." She licked her lips, her eyes scanning Zoro's body.

Zoro shuddered under her eyes. She walked around him, as if she were a shark stalking its prey. Taking the end of Zoro's chain she clipped it to another chain that was connected to the wall, made for anyone who wanted to escape. "I could just eat you right now." Zoro bit his bottom lip, commanding his body to stay as still as possible. He couldn't show how afraid of her he was, he wouldn't give her what she wants. Not anymore. Not after Maya's death.

With a swift movement, she grabbed Zoro by the neck and slammed his body against the wall, while she pressed her body onto his, pinning him there.

The green hair kid's eyes widen, his breath caught in his throat as panic started to make its way to the surface. He closed his eyes, willing his heart to stop pounding, and for his breath to come back to him.

"You see Kusa, I really love you. And I know you love me. So why not start something good between us?"

A desperate sound emitted from Zoro's throat, as his breathing involuntarily shuddered under the close contact of the woman above him. His eyes snapped open when he felt her start to nibble on his neck and trail upwards, until licking his earring.

"You like that?"

Zoro body stayed rigid. I can't let her do this to me...I can't… I can't let her do what she wants with me

Sade grabbed Zoro by his hair and threw him on the floor, the moment he landed, she got on him and straddled him as she started to rip his shirt open. "You're going to love me, LOVE ME!"

Sade screamed, passionately kissing Zoro's neck. Her hands exploring Zoro's now exposed torso. Zoro closed his eyes, pressing his body onto the floor.

I can't… if I let her, she is going to…

"AAUGHHH! YOU LITTLE SHIT!" Sade roared as she clutched the side of her bleeding face. "HOW DARE YOU BITE ME!" blood was dripping from her right ear, her hands trying to stop it from running free. She looked down at Zoro, his mouth full of blood with eyes that pierced her.

"You need to learn your lesson."

Walking to the door, Sade placed a black metal stick to block the door from opening from the outside. Zoro's eyes widen, he knew things were only going to get worst.

"Zoro, I thought we loved each other. But now all I feel is hate towards you. SO MUCH HATE!"

"I never loved you." Zoro said in a low voice, but loud enough for Sade to hear. Zoro spit more of her blood on the floor. "Disgusting."

"I'll show you to mess with me!" Sade walked to her table, throwing things to the floor as she frantically searched for something. Grabbing what she wanted, she turned around with the same hateful look. "You want to use your teeth, why don't I take care of them for you?"

Zoro frowned; he had finally been able to stand up not being able to use his hands. He watched as Sade slowly made her way next to him as Zoro tugged at the chain around his legs, trying to see if he could break it, but from the looks of it, it wasn't going to get loose.

Grabbing the chain, Sade pulled it hard enough for Zoro's body to fall to the floor and land on his back. Without missing a beat, she jumped on him, pinning both his arms to the floor by his elbows with her knees. She had another chain in her hand; she wrapped it around Zoro's neck, pulling it to tighten. "Open your mouth Zoro!"

It was then that Zoro noticed the pliers on her hand. Is she planning to? Instead of opening his mouth, Zoro clenched his jaws tighter together.

"Kusa! I said open your mouth now!" Sade felt as her anger started to boil. "You piece of shit, I'm not playing with you!" Taking the back of the pliers she brought it down on Zoro's jaw. "If you don't want to open your mouth, I'll open it for you!"

Zoro closed his eyes as he felt metal meet with flesh….

It took four hits, by the fifth Zoro's jaw hurt so much he didn't feel his muscles there. Sade grabbed his jaw, sinking her nails into his skin- forcefully opening it. "You want to bite me?"

Taking the pliers that were on her hand, she placed it on one of Zoro's teeth. "Let's see how much you will want to bite me after this!"

Zoro's eyes went to the door when he heard someone knocking on it.

"Sade, what the hell are you-" The man who had led him to the room was there, knocking and telling Sade to stop. The staff rattled the doorknob, noticing the door was blocked from the inside. "Sade open this door now!"

"Not until he learns his lesson."

"SADE!"

Tightening the pliers, she started to angel her hand to the side, forcing the tooth to bleed. Zoro clenched his hands; he didn't know how much he could take. The pain was making his head pulse, but he wasn't going to scream, he wasn't going to give Sade the sick pleasure.

He couldn't close his mouth as the muscles there were useless at the moment.

His body relaxes the moment she stopped forcing the pliers on his tooth. "Hmmm, this one seems like it doesn't what to come out. Or maybe I'm just not strong enough" Placing the pliers on the next one, she started to pull on it, instead of twisting it.

Involuntary, Zoro bit down on the metal in his mouth, the result 'one of his teeth cracked.

A smile formed on Sade's face. "So you do agree with me? You're such a good boy helping me like this."

Blood was going down his throat, making it hard to form a response, but the hate in his eyes told Sade everything. Taking the back of the pliers she lashed it across his face. "Don't look at me like that, you piece of trash!"

Sade looked up the door, she stood up; at the same time the staff was able to force the door open. The stick clattering on the floor- the staff almost tripping because he pushed the door hard.

"Sade! What the hell, he's not a four. You can't do that!"

With a smile, the tall women turned around to face the staff. "From now on, I want him to be a four. I don't know where he got the rebellion from, but it has to go." With that said, she left the two in the room.

Zoro pulled on the chain around his neck, taking a breath of air. He would be lying if he said his jaw and gums hurt, he didn't feel anything at the moment. As if all his nerves had died. Placing a hand over his mouth, Zoro could feel the blood flowing down his chin, he didn't know that he was bleeding that badly.

The staff crouched down to look at what Sade had done. "Shit, she messed you up pretty good." Leaning over he unhooked the chain that was connected to the wall. "Let's get you cleaned up, then to change you to a four."

Zoro wanted to rebel, to tell the man she was crazy, but he couldn't even move his jaw. If it wasn't broken, it was probably really close to being so. The man grabbed him by the cuff of his shirt and stood him up.

As promised, Zoro was moved up to a four and Sade had full control over his body. Whatever she wanted to do- she could.

Sade walked around Zoro, something she loved to do. She felt powerful, like she had all the time in the world to do what she wanted.

"Today I'm going to do something a little differently. I've never done it before cause I never had a four. I've always wanted one though, and you are my first. Sorry if it hurts or doesn't come out to clean."

The woman had Zoro on a table, straps holding his hands and feet down. Zoro snarled at her, the only thing he could do.

Unfazed, Sade grabbed a long knife. "I do hope this is how it's done." Reaching Zoro's side, she grabbed onto his wrist with the hand she was not holding the knife with.

Zoro watched as the knife slowly dug into his wrist, blood slowly starting to show. He averted his eyes when she started to dig deeper- he clenched his teeth when he felt her start to pull his skin upwards. Cutting into his skin as it were meat and trying to take off the surface. Zoro closed his eyes, fighting away the pain. He could hear Sade humming to herself as if she were knitting.

"I'm really not good at this. Look at the mess I did." She released the skinned hand. "Don't move, I'll get something to cover that up. I'm so disappointed."

Zoro glanced at his wrist. From his wrist until halfway to his forearm was raw flesh, the skin gone. Zoro felt panic start to settle, his breath quickening, his body trembling, before he knew it he was hunched over the table –has much as the chains around his wrist allowed him to- puking yesterday's lunch.

"Look what a mess you've made." Sade said disappointed. "I'll have you clean that after I clean my little mess."

As a four, he wasn't regarded as a human, but an animal born to suffer. The torture was not limited to once a week, but whenever Sade felt the need to punish him. From that day Sade had become more pleased with the way she was marking the child's body. How every time she punished him, he would grow to more and more fear her.

Sade didn't hold back the following year that agonizingly went by. She whipped him, skinned his wrist, broke his arms a couple of times, and used her favorite chain as much as she could. She had never been happier. There were times she would even wake up in the middle of the night just to realize her fantasy.

Around a month of her sadistic ways, Saga watched as Zoro started to lose himself and it hurt him to see it. He did the only thing he could do. He hid Zoro whenever he could from Sade's eyes. When the sadistic woman barged into the door, looking for her guilty pleasure, Saga would have his back facing the door, Zoro tucked deeply into his chest so Sade couldn't see him. It hurt him so much, he couldn't do anything more to help.

Saga brushed Zoro's green hair. "She's gone now." It's been a year since Zoro was moved to a four, and the only thing I can do is this. Zoro doesn't even wait for me to call him to sleep close to him. He would just lie down and fall asleep as close to me as possible. In truth, Zoro doesn't sleep if not close to me.

When did everything start to fall apart? Maya… why did you have to leave?

/

It was early morning when a staff entered the room and called a name. Said child would go with the staff. It wasn't long until they called Saga. The older child looked at Zoro- he didn't want to leave him alone. But he knew he couldn't stay, with a nod the older kid stood up and followed the staff out.

"Roronoa Zoro." Another man with a clipboard went to the room and called.

Zoro was led to a small room, where a man was seated with his own clipboard and glasses. "Please take a seat."

Doing as the man asked Zoro sat down. "My name is Zeto, and I am here to help you kids. I'm a therapist; I would like if we can talk for a little."

Zoro eyes the man. Should I tell him what is going on? That they beat us, and hurt us?

"How old are you, Roronoa?" Zoro bit his bottom lip. Should he just say it now? Glancing to his sides and not seeing any of the staff, and more importantly Sade, Zoro decided that maybe this was the time to say something. He didn't want someone to enter the room and ruin his chance.

He can free Saga and himself and everyone else.

"They're beating us!" Zoro blurted out.

The man sitting there seemed taken aback. Leaning forward the man now had a frown, his glasses hanging on the tip of his nose.

"What are you saying boy?"

"Look!" Zoro pulled his shirt up so the man could see the bruises that decorated his body. He also showed him his wrist where Sade had tried to skin him.

The therapist sat back and with a hand shielding his eyes, and laughed. Zoro stared wide eyes. "I just love this part of my job. You see kid; I'm not a real therapist. I only pretend to see who would say something. How could I have not known, just look at the bruises on your face." The man continued to laugh.

"Wh-what?" Zoro asked, still confused.

The man stopped laughing, his eyes turning into a glare. "You know what happens to snitches like you?" The man got up and walked towards where Zoro was seated. "-Ah, but you already have four earring. And yet you still have the will to talk!?"

Zoro felt his heart start to accelerate. The man reached Zoro's side, placing both hands on the armrest, blocking Zoro from standing up."You already have four. Now how are we going to punish you? We normally just add an earring to the one who rats, but you already are at max."

The small child swallowed thickly. The man had a smile on his face, one close to sinister. Zoro jumped when the door swung open. Three other men and Sade walked through it with the same grin on their faces.

"I told you he would talk. And finally I can fully break you." Sade licked her lips.

The last men who passed through the door locked it behind him. "Time to silence you for good."

Zoro's eyes snapped to the man in front of him when he started to unbuckled his pants. "We can do what we want with a four."

Sade leaned close to Zoro's ear from behind him. "You will love me now Zoro…" Her breath sounding full of lust. "I'll break you for good."

BrainDeadMaggot wanted flaying, here you have it. :)
