Chapter 4
Author's Note: warning for noncon sex, it starts immediately.
Blade thrashed on his bed, swiping his claws at Cleave as the weavile positioned himself on top of him.
"No, s-stop! Get off me!"
Cleave backhand slapped him across the face and grabbed his arms holding his wrists in one hand as he pinned Blade down with the other.
"Dad, stop! Please, i…I'm sorry…"
The weavile ignored him as he hovered mere centimeters from his face. And suddenly Cleave bit into Blades neck while simultaneously penetrating him.
"Sneeeaaa!" Blade cried out, he couldn't tell what hurt more, how deeply he was being penetrated, or the sharp, jagged fangs embedding into his neck. There was no purpose to the bite, at least not beyond hurting Blade.
And then the weavile began thrusting, immediately going as roughly as he could. The poor sneasel under him struggled and wiggled, feeling his neck beginning to bleed as Cleave released him. Before Blade could open his mouth Cleave placed his free claw around his throat and applied a slow, but cruel pressure to silence him.
"You want to be a faggot? You want cock? Then mine is the only cock a worthless disappointment like you will ever take." Cleave managed to up his pace again, ruthlessly thrusting down into his son. "This is all you're good for!" He let up on choking Blade only to strike him across the face again before quickly returning the pressure against the sneasels throat.
Blade felt like he was starting to see stars, the pain was becoming too much. Cleave wasn't as big as Shadow, or as long, but he was far more rough than the Darkrai had been. It felt like his insides were on fire from the merciless friction.
Cleave released his hands and cut his face as if trying to keep him conscious. And Blade grabbed his father's claw trying to pry it from his throat. Seeing his resistance Cleave cut Blade across his chest. "That faggot you fucked won't want you when I'm done with you."
Blade vigorously shook his head, choking out a desperate attempt at begging for mercy.
Cleave struck him across the face again, as he slammed himself in, hilting inside Blade. And the sneasel let out a choked sob as he felt his father's seed filling him.
"Take it you worthless bitch!" Cleave gave another hard thrust, complemented by another spurt straight inside Blade. Blade fell limp, unable to continue resisting. Cleave seemed pleased as he forced Blade to look him in the eyes. "Whore." He pulled Blade close, forcing a kiss upon him, shoving his tongue inside Blade's mouth and moaning as the last of his seed coated Blade's insides. He none too gently pulled out almost immediately. And as he turned away he tightly gripped one of Blade's legs, slashing from his knee to his ankles. "Clean yourself up."
*The Next Day*
Blade was disoriented when he woke up. The blood had stained his fur, he'd need to clean that before school. School was the last thing on his mind though, he stumbled out of his room and toward the bathroom, but was stopped when Anelace pushed him into the wall.
"I wasn't done with you yesterday. Lucky me, dad isn't here to stop me this time."
Blade remained silent, as if not hearing her, and he simply stumbled forward.
"Hey, I'm talking to you!"
He didn't hear her. The events of last night playing on a loop. The pain, the cutting, the bite, it all still sting, but none more so than his tail hole, even if it was hidden by the red feathers on his backside, he could barely stand.
Anelace grabbed him and slapped him. "I'm talking to you!"
"H-hi…Ann…" he barely managed the words.
"Jeez, you act like he's never beaten you before."
He couldn't muster the strength to say what happened, least of all to Anelace.
"I…need to…clean…myself up…" he turned back and stepped into the bathroom. He was glad his siblings hadn't tossed his towel out like they usually do, it was always so, well now he wasn't sure. Compared to the prior night, that seemed like kindness. He turned the shower on and stepped in, the cold water didn't bother him as it turned hot. In moments the water washing over him had reached an almost burning temperature. One considered unhealthy for an ice type like Blade.
And yet, the sneasel didn't notice. He sat down, barely able to stand with the pain in his legs. The tears that began to cascade down his face were indistinguishable from the shower water. And he couldn't even tell he was crying. After a short shower he noticed the scars and scabs left from what his father had done. He quickly, and clumsily dried himself off and immediately walked back to his room.
The shreds of his clothes were still on his bed, and his father's pants were still on his floor. He felt sick at that moment, as if he was about to throw up. He pushed it from his mind and dug through his drawers for something to wear. Despite the pain in his legs he slipped on a pair of jeans, that unfortunately ground against his wound. And he put on a long sleeved shirt. He didn't have a hoodie anymore, so he couldn't exactly hide the bite mark on his neck.
There was suddenly a knock at his door. "Blade, sweetie?" It was Shard, "Are you okay?" she entered the room.
"I uh…need something to wear around my neck…" his voice was barely above a whisper.
Shard looked around the room, seeing Cleaves pants, and a bite mark on Blade's neck, identical to one she had. But she only got those bites…She suddenly hugged Blade tight. "Oh Arceus what did he do to you?"
"N-nothing…" Blade knew better than to tell anyone what Cleave did.
"Blade…" Shard looked mortified. "Wait here, I'll bring you my scarf." She left the room and returned quickly with a bright pink scarf, with a shiny sneasel design on it. She quickly wrapped it around his neck, covering the mark. "Head to school okay, your father will be home soon." She stepped out of his room and called to the rest of his siblings. "Anelace, Nagi, Bardiche, Gladius, you all need to get ready, you're heading to school early."
There was a resounding groan.
"What, why?" Nagi called, despite being fully ready already.
"Because I don't want you all here when your father gets home. I need to talk to him about something."
The other Iceson children promptly got ready and walked out the apartment.
Blade was lagging behind, despite his numbness, his body could hardly move, but he managed to get outside. He managed to walk a short distance from the apartment building before his siblings ambushed him.
"Alright, come clean, how bad did Dad beat you for it?" Anelace demanded shoving him into a wall.
"Nothing…"
"What?" Nagi asked confused.
"Come on, we wanna hear eeeevery detail." Bardiche added.
"N-nothing happened…" Blade stumbled forward dropping to his knees before struggling to stand up.
"Um, guys," Gladius spoke up, "I don't think Blade is alright."
"Since when do you give a shit Glad?" Anelace looked over Blade. She had to admit, despite all of them being frequently beaten, it was never so bad they could barely move.
"I think Gladius is right sis, he doesn't look good." Nagi kneeled down beside Blade. "Hey, talk to us?"
At that particular moment a familiar black vehicle pulled up beside them.
"Oh dear." Codsworth's voice came from the driver seat as the back door of the limousine all but flew off.
Shadow pushed past the ice types and kneeled beside Blade. "What did you do?" He glared at them.
"It wasn't us!" Nagi put her hands up in surrender.
"N-nothing happened…" Blade managed a whisper and forced himself to stand. He wobbled in place.
"Blade, what happened to you?" The darkrai's voice was a strange mix of concern and rage.
"Nothing…"
Shadow looked into Blade's silver eyes, and he glared past the other ice types. "Then it was…" Shadow lifted Blade bridal style and carried him to the limousine door, gently resting him inside and putting a seatbelt on Blade. When Blade touched the seat however he flinched and pulled his backside away. Shadow leaned in close, "I love you Blade." And he kissed Blade only to pull back suddenly, there was a vile taste in Blade's mouth, and Shadow had a worrying hunch he knew what it was. He stared into Blade's eyes again, peering beyond them into the younger mon's memories. He stepped back out of the limousine.
"Sir?" Codsworth looked to him.
"Codsworth, deliver Blade to Panchu hospital, he requires medical attention." Shadow closed the door and started walking toward the apartment Blade stayed at before Codsworth could question it. And the Lucario did as he was told.
"Hey, where the hell are you going?" Bardiche asked in an attempted threatening way.
Shadow glared back, paralyzing him with fear. The curved, smokey shape of his body has contorted, becoming sharper, more jagged, and his single eye was a blazing crimson, almost alive with his rage.
Shadow quickly came to the entrance of the apartment building and quickly entered. He'd escorted Blade home the night before, so he knew where he was going.
As he approached the door he could hear what sounded like claws on flesh, and shouting. He gave one powerful knock to the door, silencing whatever was happening.
The door opened to show Cleave, looking rather irritable, slashes across his chest. And beyond the threshold of the door, Shard was leaning against a wall looking far worse.
"Shadow right?" Cleave took on a confident smirk. "Anelace won't shut up about you."
Shard slowly stood up behind him. "Get the fuck out Cleave!"
"Shut up bitch, I'm entertaining a guest."
Shadow masked his anger well as he politely spoke. His features had softened and rounded out again. "I am terribly sorry to disturb you, I was simply concerned because I found Blade collapsed on the street. And wanted to know what happened."
"He fell down the stairs and hurt his back." Cleave lied.
"You sick fuck, get out already! I'm not letting you anywhere near our children after what you…" Cleave covered her mouth.
"I said shut up."
"Now sir, is that any way to treat your wife?" Shadow stepped inside. "I would very much like to hear what you did." His more jagged, vicious appearance returned as he pulled Cleave's hand away. "Or rather, I would like to hear confirmation that you did what I think you did."
"He forced himself on my son…"Shard began to sob. "Blade…and I couldn't stop him…"
Shadow began twisting Cleave's arm. "So you did. That explains that horrendous taste in MY boyfriend's mouth." Shadow seemed to grow more jagged and sharp as he pinned Cleave to the nearest wall. His grip on the weaviles arm became tighter almost to the point of breaking. But, for Blade's sake, as well as legality he fought the urge to kill the weavile. "If I ever find another, new scar or injury on that boy, I promise you, hell on earth for the rest of your miserable life. And don't forget, hell, is forever." Shadow released him and turned to Shard. "If you ever need anything, Miss, Blade knows my phone number, do not hesitate to call."
"You think you can just come in here, into my home, and threaten me!"
"I am a legendary, and I am rich. If you attempt to sue me, you will lose that battle. Not that money will matter when the testimony of a beaten wife and five abused children will ruin your life for me." Shadow was leaning over him, the cruel rage in his eye practically beating Cleave down. "Do not lay a hand on any of them again, but Blade most of all."
Shadow abruptly walked back out, part of him wanting to go back and bury Cleave alive, but knowing better.
*Panchu Hospital*
Blade was still not fully cognitive, but he'd been seen to, his wounds had been cleaned and patched up, if only the same could be said of his mind. He had a slight comfort, seeing Codsworth standing by the door, like a sentinel.
The sounds outside his room were barely audible. There in that bed, he felt powerless, it was as if he could still see Cleave's cruel grin over him, could still feel the weaviles penetrating him. He felt himself beginning to hyperventilate.
The door to his room opened and Pyre walked in with Rai.
"Hey buddy, how ya doing? Shadow didn't give us any details." Pyre gave a comforting smile as he sat beside Blade. Blade seemed to relax slightly.
"Yeah, we're worried about you dude." Rai sat in a nearby chair.
"I'm…fine…"
"No, you are not." Shadow spoke as he stepped into the room. "Codsworth, Should Cleave Iceson approach this room, send him away, I leave the method to you." He closed the door behind him.
"Oh, hey Shadow…" Blade looked ashamed, as if he'd done something wrong.
"Blade, my dear," Shadow sat beside Blade on the other side and gently brushed his clawed hand across the younger student's face. "Please, talk to us, tell us everything."
"I told you…n-nothing…"
Shadow gently held Blade's shaking claws. "I will always, be here for you. I told you, I am going to pamper you and treat you like a prince, that includes protecting you from everything that hurts you."
"Shadow I…" Blade didn't know how to respond.
Shadow simply began humming. Pyre and Rai joined him in humming, as if finding a rhythm together. And when they finally did.
"I never knew, I could find a love like you" Shadow had begun to sing to Blade, softly, with their friends humming a gentle tune to match him. "A love I want so deeply to defend. And in the end, I know I would do it all again." The darkrai smiled and tilted the sneasels head to look him in the eyes. "And I know, deep inside you feel it too. More than anything, more than anything. I will love you and protect you more than anything."
Blade started to smile, it was as if Shadow's voice was dispelling the constant nightmare in his head. "Shadow…"
"When we were young, we never knew we would fall in love. A joy far brighter than the sun above." Shadow continued. "But I saw you and instantly I was enthralled. Watching you smile so happily. I imagined you would smile for me. In the end, it is how I saw you, that birthed the dream of happiness I am fighting for." Shadow's eye gave a gently almost pink glow. "More than anything, more than anything. I will love you and protect you more than anything."
Blade felt perfectly at ease hearing the love in Shadow's voice.
"I have been dying to give my love to who you are. I see you have waited, wanting the same. Our love will outshine the stars." Shadow pressed his forehead to Blade's gently, reassuring him. "It has taken a while, and I have missed your smile. Now I am hoping, to save you from most things. Cause in the end, we are in this together, I'll be with you forever. And I will support you, no matter what is in store."
"And who could ask for more?" Blade spoke softly, but happily.
"More than anything, more than anything." Shadow prepared to finish the song..
And the two finished it in unison. "I'm grateful you're my partner more than anything!"
Blade hugged him carefully, trying not to strain himself.
"Thank you Shadow…" Blade smiled weakly, finding it strange that his light in his darkest moment, was that glowing crimson eye. "Okay, I'll…I'll tell you…just don't…"
Seeming to know what Blade meant, Shadow tightened his gentle hold on Blade's claws. "I never will love."
"M-my dad…Anelace told him you and I started dating and that she knew we mated… my dad got mad, and…punished me for it…"
"Punished you?" Pyre asked curiously.
"He…tore my clothes to shreds and pinned me to the bed…i can't remember how long he did it, but it felt like hours…"
Shadow felt more enraged than ever, hearing it from Blade, and yet he stayed seated, listening intently, never letting go of Blade.
"That son of a bitch did what?!" Rai was outraged. "To my little bro!?"
Pyre patted him on the back. "So Shadow what's the plan?"
"For now, I am going to take care of Blade. But if Cleave, ever, and I mean ever, harms you again." Shadow seemed to noticeably darken and the rigidity of his form returned. "I will show him hell itself."
