Chapter Thirteen
Yusei's POV
I was finally home. Right now, I was in the shop, tuning the D-Wheeler, and polishing it up. I wasn't allowed to ride it for a month, or do anything really. Doctor's orders. I had to wait until my ribs finally healed.
"Looking good." Akiza said from the door. I turned to find her smiling at me. I smiled back.
"Thanks." I said, scooping her up in my arms and kissing her deeply, happy to just have her in my arms. "You, too."
She laughed. "I meant the bike."
I set her down. "Of course." She grinned back at me. I smiled. "Everything alright with you?"
"Yeah. Still get those annoying phone calls and flowers, but it's nothing serious."
"Are you sure you don't want me to step in?"
She smiled and stood on tiptoe to kiss my cheek. "I'm sure."
I kissed her again, letting the taste of her fill my senses.
"Guys, get a room, please." I looked up to see Colin standing near us. With Sayer beside him.
"Sayer." I hissed, pulling Akiza closer to me.
He smiled. "Yusei. Good to see you too. And the lovely Akiza. Long time no see." He laughed and I felt Akiza freeze, but I didn't know why.
"What do you want?"
"To show Akiza who's she is really dating."
Akiza looked up at me. "Yusei, what's he talking about?"
"Don't listen to him." I told her. "You can't trust him."
Sayer laughed. "Trust me? I haven't been the one lying to her, dude."
Aki stepped away from me. Her eyes were on Sayer now.
I was watching him, too.
"You see, Akiza. Yusei here didn't start being friendly to you because he liked you. No, he did it because of a bet."
"A…bet?" She looked at me, her eyes pleading with me to contradict his words. "You…did this because of a bet you made?"
I sighed. "Akiza, it's not like that. "I reached out to her, but she pulled away.
"Then tell me the truth. Was I apart of a bet you made?"
"That's," I stopped when she glared. "Yes." I admitted.
"To get with you." Sayer interjected. "Can't leave out the best part. He made the bet that he could get with you. So, did you do it?"
Aki's eyes were starting to tear up and broke my heart that I was the one who caused it.
"Aki."
"Don't." She said angrily. She had every right to be angry. "Don't talk to me, Yusei. I don't want to hear anymore of your lies. I trusted you."
"Aki, every word I've said to you was the truth. Every moment was real." I reached out again.
"Don't touch me! Just stay away from me!" She turned on her heel and ran, I could hear her sobs.
"You'll pay for this." I threatened Sayer.
He shrugged. "Damage is done, Satellite. She's not coming back to you. Which means she'll need someone else. Someone like me."
"Don't you dare touch her." I hissed as he grinned and ran after her. I pulled out the store phone and called the first name that came to mind.
"Hello?"
"Carly? It's Yusei. Get Jack and get over here. Sayer's back and he's after Akiza's. I need you to follow Colin. Akiza found out about the bet."
"Can you blame her if she's mad? What are you going to do?"
"I'm going after Sayer. He's not taking her away from me again."
Akiza's POV
How could Yusei do this to me? Everything was a lie? I angrily slashed at my tears, but they didn't stop. Who knew one person could cry so much?
"Akiza? I stopped and looked back.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I hissed angrily. I couldn't stop the shiver of terror that went through me. When Sayer had laughed at the shop, I had realized that it was him calling me, leaving me flowers. It was him who threatened to kill Yusei.
At first, I could make no sense of the words he was speaking. He was cursing me, calling me unspeakable names that he hissed in my ear.
Fury overcame my fear, and I threw my weight back into him, jabbed with first one elbow and then the other.
But Sayer was strong as he evaded my blows. Before I could counter, he went under my arm, caught me by the throat, and slammed me into the wall, knocking the wind from me. My fingers dug hard into his flesh, but to no luck. The white cloth flashed in my line of sight, and clamped down hard on my nose and mouth.
"No more, Akiza. You always had me, but instead chose that dirty street rat. No more, no more."
Soon it really was no more, nothing more to hear as everything went black.
Yusei's POV
Akiza. I couldn't speak her name out loud. I could only let it fill me as I ran through the streets that Sayer had taken her. I could smell her fear. Akiza, be safe, I'm coming!
I'd been running for what felt like hours. I was tired, and it was starting to be a effort just to breathe. But Akiza needed me and I wasn't about to let her go.
Akiza's POV
I had lost time, too much of it. What was Sayer going to do? He had me in a car, I could tell. The trunk? Why was I in there? My fingers scrabbled weakly against the carpeting that lined the trunk.
Yusei. I thought, tears trickling through the corners of my eyes. I heard a door shut. Footsteps coming closer.
"You're mine now, Akiza." I heard Sayer say. I felt a jerk as the car lurched forward and began to roll down an incline. There was a splash as it entered water. My stomach turned to ice. Oh God, he was going to drown me. The water was cold enough to bring me back to my senses. I rolled on my back, bending my neck to keep my head out of the water as I tried to use my legs against the trunk lid. No! I couldn't die like this!
I rolled over, gasping as the ice water soaked the back of my head, momentarily making me forget everything but the pain it caused.
I hammered widely on the trunk lid. But it was useless. Water-it was over my legs, creeping past my waist. It was utterly black in here, and the only sound was the gurgle of water coming through the trunk. My air bubble was taken, and I pounded on the roof, beyond rational thought.
I'm going to die. I though. I could have wept with frustration, but there were no more tears. I was so terribly tired. Yusei. I whispered.
Yusei's POV
There was mud all down my side, and my boots squelched in water. Akiza needed me. I drew in a ragged, pained breath and began to run again. I could feel her, her heartbeat becoming thin and light. "No!" The scream tore from my throat. I couldn't lose her!
I could see the lake now. Starlight gleamed off the polished metal of a car I recognized as Sayer's that was almost all the way in. Or perhaps the starlight was just my tears.
There you go! I cried while typing this, but then again, i'm a little sensitive. Who thinks they know what's going to happen next? I love making you guess. Kudos to everyone who said Sayer/Divine as the stalker!
As always, please review!
