The
red headed warrior leaned back against a tree in the garden of the dojo he
recently was staying at. He rubbed the injection site, where he had been drugged
just twenty-four hours before by the last person he would suspect a couple
months ago. True he had been hurt way worse before, but when someone he trusted
completely and vowed to protect took advantage of him, he had to reevaluate his
views of the world. Yes he wouldn’t turn away from his ‘friends’ and the code
he lives by but he might be less trusting of anyone in the future.
Right
now, he had to live in the dojo, with Kaoru and Yahiko, act as if nothing has
happened between him and the assistant master of the dojo, while get the
continuous injections, beatings and other forms of torture. He just hoped no
one would notice his paler-than-normal features; or the dark rings under his
eyes from the sleep deprivation (due to being afraid of being attacked in the
middle of the night by a sex-crazed girl.); or his jumpiness when someone
touches him unexpectedly or when someone hugs him, he tenses; or the
unexplainable day or two disappearances; or the uncharacteristic tendency to
stay to himself, shutting every emotion off from the outside world and lastly
he hoped- no prayed that none of his close friends ever found out about his
dirty little secret that he wished to take to the grave with him. He shook his
head to get all of the unhappy thoughts he was having at the moment, dark red
bangs that fell in front of his face scoured the view of his eyes and the
silent tears that ran down his pale cheeks.
Sanosuke,
Sano to his closest friends, watched as Kenshin disappeared after fixing lunch
for himself, ‘Missy’ and the kid. He silently excused himself and followed his
best friend. Over the last several months after traveling back from
around him. It was becoming depressing and annoying to watch. Usually his best
friend was outgoing and energetic, he only came withdrawn if it involved his
past, but Sano knew for a fact this new face of Kenshin’s was a front for
something happening to him now, Sano just had to figure out what that something
was.
Kenshin
sat down next to a Sakura tree in full bloom, petals fell softly around him,
making him look like he was some sort of heavenly being, and caused a slight
discomfort in the former street fighters pants. ~ normal\'>Damn what a time to think of Kenshin in that way. ~ Sano thought as
he tried to will away his erection. When the pain finally stopped, Sano
continued to watch Kenshin. What caught him by surprise and wonderment was
Kenshin’s shoulders were shaking like he was sobbing or crying. As long as Sano
has known Kenshin, He has known the smaller man to be strong and never to cry.
Not
knowing what to do, Sano slowly made his way over to the other warrior. The
last thing he needed was a sword blade to his throat just for startling his
friend. ~ That
is if he had his sword on him. ~ Sano added almost like an afterthought.
What wrong?” Sano asked as he gently placed a hand on the older warrior.
Kenshin jumped nearly out of his skin. Sano backed off immediately, not wanting
to pose a threat. Kenshin looked around frantically for Kaoru, but only the
sight of Sano greeted him.
glancing around for any sign of Kaoru. He spotted her coming out of the
kitchens apparently looking for something, for him.
friend’s gaze, visibly paling when Kaoru came over to them. ~
“Ken-kun,
why didn’t you stay for lunch? You know, I love
you to be there, the rooster and the boy aren’t much conversationalist.” Kaoru
said motioning to Sano, who leaned against the tree that previously Kenshin
leaned against.
“Please
forgive me Kaoru-dono, I was feeling a little under
the weather.” Sano’s eyebrows rose. ~
Kenshin feeling a little under the weather? That’s not right. Kenshin never
gets sick. What is going on here? ~ Sano thought as Kaoru fussed over his
friend. He noticed that every time Kaoru came close, Kenshin tensed, flinched
or tried to avoid her.
Kaoru
pulled Kenshin back to her room to get something to make him feel better.
Kenshin’s face looked panicked as he glanced over his shoulder to Sano. ‘Please
help me,’ was the look in Kenshin’s eyes as he disappeared around a
corner. Sano’s heart leapt into his throat,
he knew he needed to help his friend, but from what, he didn’t know.
