master of the devil's slave~Nyuchanxx and KiraMidnight

[KiraMidnight]

Kira walked up to the man. Even though he didn't ask even he knew what was the cause behind the man's shaking. He had been in that state before, so he knew. He sat down and put his arm around the man, pulling him against him.

 

"You were lucky, you escaped.....don't think about it anymore, it only gets worse the more you think, just calm yourself and lock the door again, ok?"

 

He sat there, though he knew this was the perfect time to run, he felt as if he shouldn't leave this man in this condition......even though he knew the man would probably leave him.....he couldn't stand to see anyone like that.....not even his captor

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe tried to control his breathing, he took long intakes and let it out slowly, trying to calm down and not to choke. He felt the arm around his shoulder and found it oddly comforting, it helped him relax slightly. He focused on breathing in and out at the same rate as the younger male, breathing in as he felt his head rise on the mans chest. It worked. He managed to gain control of his mental state again and slowly he removed his hands from his face, allowing the light to filter through his eyes again. He sat there for a moment content to just sit against the smaller male. It wasn't until a few moments later he realised how badly he was compromising his authority, not that it really mattered this man probably thought him weak now anyway. He groaned and sat up again, looking at the other face. "sorry, i didn't mean...sorry." he muttered unable to believe what had just happened, unable to believe that Kira had even stayed with him and not run. He regretted his choice to become a master at this point, there was no way anyone high up would accept him, no, you were either born and died a master or you were born a slave a died a fool. The only thing that kept him a master was his love for words, without his position he could never write or read again For that he had to stay sane. He lifted himself up, using the tree to lean against he said "You should have run, you could have got away," he paused that before continuing "But thank you, thank yo fro coming back, thank you for keeping me sane, i really appreciate it no matter how nuts i think you are for it." He spoke truthfully deciding that he would speak his mind, he owed the man that much at least.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira was calm as he sat there. He then stood up, streaching now.

 

"Look...I can see that you are pretty good at gaining control...and you must thuink I see you weak...but after what you did to me, weak isn't the word I would use, and don't apologize.....we all break down sometimes, you just have to watch who you break down around. And don't thank me either....I didn't run cause I've been in that position before...yes I was foolish not to run, but it would kill me inside to leave someone in that position, since I've been there...and no one helped me.....by the way...how high are you on the Master ranks....?"

 

He was looking up at the sky, not knowing exactally why he was doing so, but it slightly brought him peace

[Nyuchanxx]

He frowned at Kira trying to work out the mans motive before he sighed not really caring any more "Well in terms of money i am up in the top quarter, you would be surprised at how much money you can gain in so little time if you want it enough, but to be honest in the social ranks of the master, i am probably the lowest of the low, the couldn't respect me less, my past being the obvious reason but they don't think a simple writer should be a master but you can't be a writer and be known without being a master, it's a vicious circle and i am trapped in the middle of it." He stood upright releasing his hold on the tree and slowly began walking again but not to his original destination, he no longer felt like going to that clearing, not after what had just happened, instead he walked at an angle intending to loop back round to the car.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira just sighed and nodded, smiling slightly as he watched the man. He had no intention of going back.....it had nothing to do with what he saw, or even what he knew, it was the fact that he refused to be a slave forever. He made a silent turn in the dirt and ran off far the other way. He refused to stop this time, not even if his legs were broke.

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe turned as he heard the sound of rapid footsteps, his eyes flashed as he saw the other running off in the opposite direction. Taking a deep breath in Konoe sprinted after the other, trying to keep from getting dizzy as he still hadn't fully recovered yet. Konoe flicked his eyes up into the tree line for a second before focusing back on the man in front of him, he did a few calculations determining their position in relation to the sun. He swore when he realised where they were headed. There was a deep ravine that stretched miles across about 500 meter in front of them and the surrounding brush was so think that you couldn't see the edge until it was too late and you were falling the miles down onto the bed of the underground river which had caused the ground to collapse. He ran faster if nothing else desperate to stop Kira from falling to his death.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira continued to run, not wanting to be caught. He wanted to be free, he wanted to be able to choose who he was and what he did, but as a slave he couldn't do anything like that.....since slaves were doomed to be slaves.....

 

As he ran he saw the brush that hid the clif side, and he wasn't too far away from it

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe saw the cliff approaching, his thoughts swirled around as the ground started to rock slightly, he wasn't getting enough oxygen and he was getting dizzy very rapidly. Konoe put on a quick burst of speed just as the other was running through the brush, he jumped knocking Kira flat on the ground so he couldn't fall off the edge. He felt his body roll as he hit the ground and before he knew it nothing was beneath him, he flailed out catching the edge of the rock with his fingers. His breathing was erratic and already he could feel his arms giving out from the effort he had exerted before and the train on them now. He squeezed his eyes shut. 'well if i am going to die, it might as well be to help one of my own' he thought as he felt his fingers slipping. This was it, he was going to die and he hadn't done anything, a small tear slipped down his cheek as he wondered what would happen to his maid, poor Mika, she was going to get all the trouble from this. His arms burned and screamed out fr relief but he could bring himself to accept his fate with dignity, he had worked to hard for this life which he never really liked and he hated to throw it away, even if it meant dying shamefully he would hold out until his last shuddering breath.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira saw what happened and quickly grabbed hold of one of the roots hanging from the side of the cliff from the brush and jumped down, managing to grab the man's hand tightly. Kira was very strong, his arms especially! Kira quickly threw the man over the cliff and onto the ground. He couldn't breath now, and that throw took all the energy he had, what amazed him most was the fact that he succeeded in making that throw.

 

"Good.......hmm...wonder if he's unconcious, can't hand on for long.....oh well, I'd choose death over being a slave any day! HEY IF YOU CAN HERE ME TAKE CARE OF THAT SWEET GIRL, IF YOU DON'T I'LL HAUNT YOUR ASS!!!"

 

With those words Kira lost his grip and fell far down the cliff, closing his eyes tightly and awaiting the impact of the ground

 

"Finally free....."

 

He whispered on contact of the rocky ground, blood splattering everywhere when he hit.

[Nyuchanxx]

As his body hit the ground Konoe black out, his conciousness still just about aware of the words that were yelled at him, Mika...what would happen to her? he couldn't care less about what happened to him but although he would deny it profusely if asked he cared a lot for the girl, she reminded him of his sister....dead sister. What would happen to Mika. He thoughts went round in circles always coming back to the same question..Mika? He had never written a will, all his assets and money would g to any masters who wanted it and that included Mika, by the law she was his asset and without a will stating she wasn't and specifically saying she would get his money and assets she would be given to another master, one that would break her.

 

His eyes snapped open and he choked rolling over and propping himself up on his elbows he spat out a glob of blood, choking a litle more. He looked up as his coughing fit subsided to see Kira laying a few meters from him, blood around him, he staggered to his feet but feel back down again letting out a scream of agony. He could tell already that his leg was broken in multiple places and from the blood he spat out he guess a rib or two as well. groaning he lay back down, carefully reaching into his coat he pulled his phone and dialled his house. After a few rings Mika picked up:

"hello, Konoe's house, can i help you?" she asked, ever the polite one.

"Mika," Konoe rasped out "Take the automatic and come to the ravine in the forest, please..." He coughed again, blood filling his mouth, spitting it out he continued "please, hurry."

"Konoe! What happened? Are you ok?!" He could hear the girl was panicking slightly and knew it best not to tell her so he just hung up.

 

Using his arms Konoe moved towards the other man painfully, letting out a yell in pain every so often. He reached Kira, carefully sitting up he coughed again, spitting out the accumulated blood he lifted the others head onto his knee, raising his hand high he slapped the mans face with all his strength yelling "YOU THINK I SAVED YOU FOR YOU TO JUMP TO YOU ASS-HOLE!!! WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU THINKING!!!! DO YOU NOT HAVE A BRAIN!!" Konoe was seething, this was how he was repaid, he thought he had given the other a chance to free himself, for him to do this though.."YOU UNGRATEFUL PIECE OF SHIT!!" he yelled slapping Kira again.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira barely opened his eyes, not feeling the slaps, he more opened his eyes cause he realized he wasn't dead yet.....and as he slightly looked over he saw the man and blinked a bit, glad he survived. His vision was definatally blurred, and he could only slightly feel the pain of his badly broken leg, it was as if his whole body was numb, to put it simply he was in shock.

He managed to speak, but his voice was only a whisper

 

"Shut up.....I can't hear you very well so no use in yelling..."

 

His ears were full of blood, maybe the impact busted his ear drums? But as he spoke he could feel the tightening of his throat, though he didn't know why.

 

"I lf you had falled t-to the full impa-ct...you would be dead.....a-and...t-th-at girl.....the nice one who's name I didn't get to..........learn.....she would be sad.....she would miss you."

 

He closed his eyes having trouble speaking now but he was trying hard to finish his words

 

"You have someone to miss.....someone to.....miss you.....I don't........live for her.....and just leave me here...I don't think I'll survive much longer anyway.......!"

 

He could feel the darkness creeping up and into his mind, he was slowly loseing conciousness, and for once, he was actually a bit scared.....

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe could feel his anger boiling "to hell with all that do you really think i would be bothering to help you and keep myself alive if i didn't have something to live for and you sure as hell should to you idiot, if nothing else you should live fore the fact i tried to save your sorry ass you fucking idiot!" Konoe could hear he voice rising as he talked he was really mad at the man resting on his knee. "YOU SHOULD...." he choked as he felt blood and bile rise in his throat, this time he didn't have the control to stop it and turning to his left he threw up, coughing out the blood along with it, he groaned as he felt his body getting weaker and he collapsed onto his arm breathing heavily.

 

Once he had regained himself enough he carefully sat up again and gently brushed the hair from the others face, he shifted a little removing his coat and gently removing the others shirt as well, he gently dabbed his coat on the scratches over the mans body and laying it over the man to keep him warm, he could tell the other was going into shock and his limited first aid knowledge was god enough for him to know that he has to keep the other warm.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira remained silent as he laid there, shivering slightly now as he felt the coat on him

 

"What do I have to live for? No one cares.....no one will miss me.....no one will care......so why live...my family is gone, and my life as a slave is never ending....."

 

He spoke only in his mind, not able to find any answers as he asked such questions. He didn't understand why....but he only saw darkness...

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe sat there still gently holding the man trying to keep him with the world but before long he felt his body spasm and he coughed up more blood before he collapsed on the floor unconscious.

 

****

 

Mika found the two ten minutes later gasping she tried her best not to panic as she saw her kind master in such a state and his coat over the slave who rested on his lap. She rushed over not entirely sure what to do but she knew she had to get them home and fast. In her adrenaline supported state she rushed to pick Konoe up the extra hormone giving her the strength she needed to place him carefully in the back of the car, resting him across the seat. She shut the door and turned the heating on knowing the man should be kept warm before she rushed back to Kira and picked him up shoving him in the front seat of the car. Leaping in the other side she started the engine and drove as quickly and smoothly as she could to the mansion. Picking p the phone she commanded that it called the doctor, it did the ringtone playing through the cars speaker system. She quickly commanded a doctor to be at the house in the next ten minutes and hung up focusing on driving.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira didn't even know he was moved, he couldn't feel a thing, and it was almost as if he was floating in a sea of darkness

 

"I suppose this is how I will go.....alone and a bit scared....but why scared? I guess death is my fear...but oh well....."

 

He spoke to himself in his mind and kept his eyes closed to the darkness

[Nyuchanxx]

When Konoe awoke he was lying in his own bed, the blankets wrapped tightly around him. He groaned as he shifte slightly, his whole body ached and hurt. Suddenly a hand was resting n his shoulder and he looked up to see Mika above him "Mika." He said softly, she smile down at him, the relief obvious on her face "Thank god you are ok, sir!" She leant down and kissed his forehead before running her hands through his soft long hair, he shut his eyes again simply enjoying Mika's presence she was the one and only person he could relax around and she was the only one he would allow to call him by his first name, he trusted her enough "Mika i told you before i do't like you calling me sir, Mitsuo is fine." He opened his eyes and smiled weakly at her. She shuffled sheepishly turning slightly red from embarrassment "sorry..Mistuo" she said, he smiled letting his eyes fall shut again "better, thank you." he gently said, his face becoming a grimace as he moved a little in the wrong direction "umm, Mitsuo," Mika mumbled, Konoe could already tell the next words he could feel the warmth of the blood on him "Do what you need to" He said through clenched teeth as Mika removed the covers from his body.

 

The girl check most of his bandages, many of them were ok except the one on his leg, blood was steadily soaking it seeping from a deep gash she carefully lifted the leg and un-bandaged it before she reached for the antiseptic and proceeded to clan the angry wound. As the cold liquid touched the sensitive nerves Konoe gritted his teeth. squeezing his eyes shut but as more pressure was applied and the cloth was moved he save a sharp cry of pain. Mika stopped concerned "just get it over with!" Konoe growled out, and she did. Finally re wrapping the wound Konoe relaxed breathing heavily he asked "Where is Kira?" "ohh the slave? he is in my room at the moment since you both needed beds." she replied gently although the was a hint of resentment in her voice and it was obvious to Kone she hated the man and blamed him for all this. "Sorry, Mika, i ruined your day off, but thank you, i am eternal grateful to you once again," He smiled gently at her before saying "I need to see Kira." Shocked the gil exclaimed "no! you cant get up Mistuo, please he is fine, he will live! but you have..." Konoe cut her off "just help me up Mika." His tone was obviously noted and Mika carefully helped him to stand, supporting most of his weight as his broken leg couldn't. Konoe let out a quick yell of pain before he managed to get control of himself and stand leaning heavily on Mika, carefully Mika wrapped a black coat around his shoulder covering the bandages around his chest and slowly they made there way to the other side of the house

[KiraMidnight]

Kira laid in the unknown bed and slept. He felt very weak and his breathing was weak. He couldn't breath and he felt as if he was already dead.

 

"Where am I.....why can't they just let me die.....why am I unable to feel anything....why can't I hear anything....I can't do much right now......"

 

He laid there in pain and darkness. He didn't mind the peace and quiet but he was tired and felt as if he gave into the darkness he would maybe feel better.....

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe staggered painfully down to Kira's room, leaning heavily on Mika's shoulder. He was in a lot of pain but he wasn't about to let it show too much, he didn't want Mika to worry to much. He reached the door to Mika's room, letting go of her and standing up strait, at much pain to himself he said "you may go, I'll call you later.." He paused gathering himself and controlling his pain "you may go in the library or make yourself some food." Mila looked at him worriedly but defiantly "no way, Mitsou this is one thing you can not bribe away with books." Konoe frowned at the girl annoyed. "Mila just leave us alone, that kid is probably a bit...messed up!" He stared at Mila waiting for a response. But his maid merely crossed her arms and turned on her heels storming away. Konoe sighed leaning heavily against the wall, it had taken a lot out of him to stay upright and make the appearance of being ok.

 

He carefully opened the door and staggered inside, he almost fell onto the bed on which Kira lay as he tried to sit down next to the man. He sighed placing his hand gently on then others for head stroking the hair from his eyes, he knew he shouldn't after all this was the mans own choice but still he felt bad. "Kira, Kira." He whispered trying to wake the other as he shut his own eyes to try and focus on anything other than the pain.

[KiraMidnight]

Finally a voice cut through the darkness of Kira's mind...a voice that he reconized....it was the man he tried to save.....slowly he opened his eyes, they were dull, and dark black lines showed underneath them. He still couldn't hear anything the man said, ut his subconcious had told him the man called his name

 

"I......can't....hear....you...."

 

He said slowly, taking hard breaths inbetween words, which really hurt

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe sighed, at least the man was conscious but if he was telling the truth and he couldn't actually hear him talk then that worried him quite a bit. He carefully laid back on the headboard of the single bed, gently bringing his legs up onto the soft mattress as well being wary that it was only a single bed and Kira needed the space, he satin the very edge of the bed, slightly precariously but not so much as to be too much chance of him slipping. He moved his arm up to Kira head and gently brushed his fingers through the mans hair moving at away from his ears.

 

He sighed as he noticed the girl hadn't washed Kira, his ears were slightly clogged up with blood and grime which was probably what was causing the los of hearing, or at least he hoped that was the reason or he had no idea what to do. Konoe shook his head he knew the girl didnt like Kira but saying that she hasn't liked him when they first met, you had to gain trust with her and right now Kira was doing a bad job of it, causing so much damage to Konoe hadn't appeared to sit well with Mika!

 

Konoe reached into his pocket drawing out his phone and calling Mila on the speed dial, it rang. He listened to it continue to ring groaning annoyed when the girl didnt pick up, he knew she was doing it to spite him, she was very strong willed when she wanted to be. He cursed himself for making her leave before he called the house phone, knowing she would pick it up. Sure enough she did.

 

He quickly asked her to bring some warm water and a towel before he hung up leaving her no time to reject the idea. He put his phone on the table and looked down at Kira, "I am going to clean your ears and body a little to get all the blood and dirt of ok? Dont resist." Konoe almost laughed at the absurd idea, this man not resisting that sounded so stupid!! And the fact he was talking to a man who probably couldn't hear him made himself feel like an idiot but no matter, so be it.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira could luckily read lips and just slowly nodded. He felt sick but that was slowly starting to pass. His long hair was also slightly blood stained and he had hoped that as soon as he was well enough to get up on his own he could take a bath, then he remembered that he had a secret friend....a Master none the less that he actually truly trusted.....one that took care of him for a bit untill another Master kidnapped him from him...he remembered the man's number and looked over at Konoe.

 

"Listen.....I know this may sound.....a bit mysterious to you.....b-but can you call a number for me.....please.....it's very important....."

 

The man he wanted Konoe to call was a bit on the mysterious side. He was a Master that had strange powers. he could heal the worst injuries.....even broken limbs were childs play for him.

 

"J-just tell him that Kira needs him.....I beg of you....i-it's for your benifit as well....."

[Nyuchanxx]

Konoe frowned not sure if he should really trust the man, after all this was his house and he didnt want others in here without his pomision especially if this man was another master, if such a fact was true he was going to be in for trouble, he doubted there was a master alive who didnt hate his guts. Never the less if Kira thought he could help then he sopossed it couldn't hurt, if ythsi man could help them then that was a no brained he would just have to trust that the slave wasn't lying. From past experience Konoe reckoned he was but...he sighed getting out his phone "what's the number?" He said resigning himself for trouble.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira told him the number, and looked up at him a bit. He really hoped the man would do as he asked.....he hoped he would trust him

 

"His name is Alex.....he is a Master that has no slaves.....no pets.....b-but he.....he was forced to let me go.....he was the one Master that cared for me like a human being."

 

He gasped for breath and closed his eyes

 

"C-could you clean ny ears.....a-and maybe....the rest of m-me.....?"

 

He asked cautiously

[Nyuchanxx]

sighing Konoe quickly dialled the number dreading what was to come, he couldn't imagine anything worse than having to let another master into his house but if Kira said he could help he so posed it would be ok...the worst. He kept the phone conversation brief handing out only his address and the fact Kira needed him before hanging up just as Mika entered the room. He gave her a quick smile but she just glared at him a glare strong enough to kill an army and destroy a nation. He ran his hand over his face as she pretty much slammed the door, he would have to make a very good apology to her later, she could hold a grudge and he didnt want it to be against him!

 

picking up the flannel Konoe gently began to clean the grime from the inside of the slaves ears before he carefully moved onto the rest of his body, trying not to aggravate the wounds.

[KiraMidnight]

Kira jumped a bit at the pain but stayed as calm as possiable.

 

"H-he is here....."

 

He whispered with a slight smile on his lips. He showed a true smile...a smile of happiness for once. But as he did so his pain seemed to increase and he closed his eyes a bit tighter

 

"A-ahh...."

 

He quietly whined.

 

 

A few moments passed and there was a soft knock on the door, followed by the door opening and closing instantly. There stood a tall man, slender but muscle built. His knee length black was pulled in a neat blue hair band and his dark crimson eyes glisened in the light.

 

"Good afternoon Sir. I can see you are Master here, I am Master Aiden, a pleasure to meet you. I was once young Kira's caretaker...I see you and he are not well, allow me to fix that!"

 

He approached the bed and sat on the other side, placing his hand upon Kira's cheek

 

"My poor boy....how tattered you've become....your precious flower stolen from you and the sweet sparkle in your eyes gone....whoever could harm you this way is nothing short of a monster.....!"

 

He whispered a few words and the room became filled with light, but after only a few seconds the light vanished and all that remained of either of the men being hurt was the dry blood. Aiden had healed all the wonds on their bodies

 

"All better....sadly though my sweet Kira I cannot return yout flower....not without being able to hold you as close as I once did....but alas you have a Master...I cannot step beyond this point, forgive me!"

 

He stood and bowed to them both

 

"Good day, Master Konoe!"

 

He walked out and was gone just as fast as he was there
