My body felt heavy and weak, I didn’t understand what was going on around . I tried to open my eyes but fatigue stopped them from even moving. I was tired, really, really tired. I don’t know how much longer I can hold on. All this ti, I tried my best, I endured everything thrown at , but I don’t know how much longer can I keep going. I need sothing to hold onto. I need…soone.
"Ai…" I hear his voice, calling from a distance. A distance so far, my frail body cannot even fathom to cover. Even if I use all the energy left within , I cannot hold onto anything.
"Co to ," I thought lying in my original state, not being able to move. "I need you," I wanted to shout but my voice couldn’t escape my mouth.
I just lay there, weak, helpless, and not being able to be close to my beloved. At least, if it is ti for to die, I don’t want to be alone during that ti. I want him to be there with , at least then I can allow sweet death to embrace . How much ti has it been? I don’t know, I have lost count. Even if it would have been a day, it felt like the longest day I have ever lived through.
Cuts, bruises, stabs, and whatnot. I endured through it all. I know why he did this, so I endured through it all. My arms were cut off and I scread. I scread so loud that my tongue was next. The worst part was, they grew back, and he got his chance again. So, he repeated that routine, all over again. Every ti he makes a wound, it heals, so he opens the sa wound again. And again, and again, and again, and again.
All I could do was just shout and scream, my voice calling out to him. Not for help, but wanting to keep him away. I saw what this man is capable of doing to a pseudo-immortal. If he, if he did sothing like this to him. He…he will die. No matter how tough he tries to show himself, he is still a re human and that man will exploit him till his final breath. I knew it.
I knew it.
Yet, I cried for help. To be saved.
My mind begged my body not to think for its own survival only to realize my mind betrayed itself. Instincts took over and my own will had no right of command anymore. I swayed with what my instincts told my body to do. It didn’t want to die. Yet, it didn’t want to suffer. It held onto anything that would keep from drifting into the abyss and it all circled back to him.
Ti passed, and the wounds started to take longer to heal. Though it left weaker it was a blessing in disguise. The man didn’t intend to kill , so he slowed and cald with his sadistic torture. The ti for him to co back and repeat the sa things took longer. Though I now had ti to catch my breath. I just dreaded for the ti I saw him again. "It won’t take too long", the man told and the words sent shivers down my body.
He didn’t leave though, he just waited, eyes darting up and down my body. I couldn’t catch my breath. His re presence urged to get as far as I could from him. But I couldn’t. Run? Where to though? I was trapped in this seemingly never-ending loop of breaking and healing.
The man broke , and I healed. But only physically.
"Ai…" he called out my na, now closer than he was before. My body was not able to move, but a little smile crept on my face.
"Just a little closer," I thought lying in my original state. My body slowly moved just so I could I get closer to him. "I need you," I mouthed but the voice didn’t co out again. "I miss you," I wanted to cry. Not out of pain or fear but out of sadness.
Not being able to see his face for this long brought a great deal of sadness to . I wanted to see him, hear his voice, feel his touch and want to be close to him. If I heard him only say once "Hold on a little longer" I would endure everything and wait, not because I have no choice but out of sheer willpower. Doesn’t matter how much ti that would have been. It could be minutes or days, weeks even and I will patiently wait for him knowing that he is out there fighting to get to .
"I did well, right?" I whispered wanting to be praised by him. His hand gently stroking my dirtied hair and him smiling at was the only thing I wanted to see now. But not every wish is fulfilled.
I got no response.
At least not from him.
"That’s…" I heard a feminine voice in front of him. It didn’t match the voice of any of the subordinates who would bring more and more torture weapons for that man. This was a different one. The voice sounded horrified. "That’s Ai-san?"
This person knew my na…sohow. I wanted to open my eyes and look at who it was but my body didn’t support yet again. Before I knew it, the tools of agony from my limbs were pulled out and I fell into the cold embrace of soone. The feel was unfamiliar but not the sll. I knew this person. I wanted to cry out of joy but it also broke my heart. This person wasn’t him.
"Father did this…?" I heard a voice and my body sohow cald back to its senses. The person referred to that man by that na. There was no reason for this to be a good situation for . But I was free, the only thing now was to get out. To him.
I let my instincts take over and I quickly bit into the neck of the one holding . I don’t care anymore. I started drinking the foul-tasting blood but the taste was the last thing on my mind. I wanted to vomit from the taste but I kept going.
"ARGH!!" shouted the person but I didn’t pay heed. I need more, this is not enough. Give everything that you have.
Soone pulled at but I didn’t move, I kept going until the taste was unbearable. I indulged myself with the blood of the other person but this one tasted better than the one before. I drank and drank wanting to suck every last drop of blood from her.
"STOP!!" the person shouted and I felt a jolting pain in my neck as flesh was ripped out of it. I knew it. These people were not here for any good. I jumped at the person and they got my arm and ripped it off. Then they threw with great strength and my back felt as if it was being struck by hot boiling iron and I scread in pain. They were bad news and I needed to end this quickly. My body was in pain again but this ti it did nothing to . I felt pain far worse and this was nothing compared to that. I was ready to pounce at them but sothing pushed back and knocked unconscious.
I looked in front to see a familiar figure. I stretched out my hand wanting to be helped. She knew the person I wanted to get to. She can be of use to . Please…
"…take to Kazu…kun…" I murmured before my vision faded to black yet again.
I didn’t know what to do anymore. I was slowly starting to lose hope. I wanted to run away. I wanted to be close to him but I failed. I tried but I failed and my body was starting to lose strength again. I’m scared…I’m so scared Kazu-kun…I don’t know where you are, I don’t know how you are but you feel so close and it hurts even more. I want to be with you, I don’t want to be all alone. I am scared here; I don’t want to be here. I don’t know what to do anymore. Run? I tried but I failed. The one chance I found, I failed. I don’t know how long I can go on, why don’t you just co to ? Why is it taking you so long?
