"Remind me... Why am I here again?” Ryu asked, sitting in a chair next to the bed (Y/N) was lying on. He watched each and every one of Kentaro’s actions carefully, picking up the book faced flat down as he did.

“Ah, right. You’re going to stay here and watch over her for me, I have to take care of something.” He replied as he removed the cloth he forced between (Y/N)’s lips.  “Feed her too, alright?”

Ryu gasped, setting back down the boring looking leather object. “The hell! All that for one gram? Seriously? Is there some kind of catch?”

The brunette shook his head, and shrugged his shoulders. “I wouldn’t want to baby sit anyone. But then again... she’s a cute girl, I don’t want to leave her with anyone else other than myself.” The twisted freak leaned in, sniffing her messy, tousled hair.

(Y/N) tried to jerk up her hand to slap him across his face, but she couldn’t. Kentaro leaned back with the smuggest look on his face, sticking out his tongue seductively.

“Come on man, this ain’t right. You shouldn’t keep her here just ‘cause she’s cute.” He sighed, standing up. 

After stating his opinion, the male flicked his eyes towards the red head just before leaving. “Shut up, you know nothing.” Was all he said, closing the door behind him.

Shortly after his rude words, he pulled his phone out his pocket as well as (Y/N)’s, reading, “missed call” from a single person consistently.  

Once his phone went off again, he answered with a sigh. "Hello-"

Jyugo had hung up on him the minute he answered.

"The hell... And he expects me to answer when he does those kinds of things...?" He grumpily murmured.

The room the two was left in was overflowing with awkwardness and silence, Ryu seemed to be iching to ask something.

Their ears twitched after hearing the door close.

Then, Ryu started tugging on the ropes that bounded her to the bed. “What are you doing? Why are you even here? And, where are we?!” He sighed after failing to free her, and hesitated to continue. She was in pain, and her skin was on the verge of bleeding.

“We’re in some mountain in a forest, far away from the city. Apparently Kentaro’s dad owned the place until he passed away...” Ryu’s glancing around the room began to happen constantly. He was searching for something.

“Where’s Jyug-” Right... he’s crazy too. “I’ve been doing some research, also. I feel like I can and I should speak to you about it. You don’t have feelings for him, do you?”

Startled by the question, (Y/N) laid in silence before answering. “I... I don’t. Now that I know Seiji’s alive, I don’t think I can love anyone else...” Ryu had a look of confusion, but decided to save his questions for later.

“Right, that’s good then.”

“Why?”

“He’s insane. I think it runs in the family.” She, too, believed that theory.

“How’s he insane? He made it seem like it was Jyugo...”

He was running out of options. ‘How the hell am I going to free her?’ He thought, fetching for his phone. “He’s not wrong. Jyugo has some dirt on his hands too.”

“Mom, when are you coming home?”

“Dad isn’t coming home, is he?”

The woman held her head with a sigh, agitated. “I’ll be getting off work in an hour, you know this Jyugo. Make your brother something to eat and make sure you bathe. You two should be in bed by the time I get home.” Their mother said over the phone.

“But I like the food you make!” Kentaro whined. Jyugo tapped his brother on the head, shushing him. “Sorry mom, have fun at work.” Shortly after hanging up the phone, he turned to his twin brother. “What was that for?”

Later that night, their mother finally arrived, and so did her husband shortly after. He was drunk and unsteady.

“When are you going to man up and be a dad already?! The children need you!” Mina shouted. 

Kentaro had awaken from the screaming and arguing, rubbing his right eye. “Daddy is home...?” He muttered sleepily, standing to his feet.

“Hey Jyu, daddy is home! But mommy and d—” After glancing to the bed bedside his, he discovered he was gone. “Huh?” Self-consciously, he found himself pulling the blanket over him off his body, sneaking out into the hallway.

His little head peeked around the corner, watching his parents argue. “Kentaro needs me, not some dumbass child you were left with by some guy!” Mina’s husband shouting with slur.

Kentaro then spotted his brother standing by the doorway head as well, ready to pounce at any moment. 

"Whether he's your son or not doesn't even matter! You're supposed to be here for me and them! Do you know how many bills I've got snuck paying alone because of your selfishness!?" She exclaimed, tossing some paperwork along with some more nasty words.

"Get out my house if you're going to be like my ex. Get out! I don't need another drunken leech who abuses my family!"

Feirious, the man cleched his fists, stumbling towards her. He raised his right hand and left a swelling red mark on her face. "I'll... I'll show you abuse."

As he tall figure towered over hers, he began to unbuckled his belt after leaving yet another bruise on her skin.

"St...Stop this now, Nakashima!" She shouted, trying her very best to stay strong, as well as sound like it. He didn't listen or discontinue despite her screaming and begging. In fact, he wanted to hurt her more.

"Shut up! You ungrateful mistake!" Her husband forced her onto the floor using brute force, still picking at his belt until it was off.

"G-Get off me! You stink!" She yelled. As if insulting him would make a difference. "Do I? Do I!? You're a rude bitch, I have to teach you some manners!"

His lashed at her face and her arms that she begin to resist with, wailing. "M-Mommy!" Kentaro shouted. Just then, Jyugo jumped out of hiding, grabbing a vase full of water and flowers.

"Leave her alone!" Young Jyugo yelled, aiming at the back of the man's head. The vase broke, and so the water and flowers emptied on him and his mother under him.

"You little..." Nakashima felt his forehead, dizzier than he already was. "Jyu! What are you doing? Go back to bed, mommy's got this." She said, reaching for her purse.

"No! I won't let him keep hitting you mom!" He stubbornly replied, backing away from his step father that inched closer.

Before he could touch his step son, he turned to his wife in realization. He knew she had a weapon. Once he saw the edge of something black and loaded, he stepped on her wrist.

"What do you think you're doing? You don't plan on shooting me with that thing, do you?" He asked, kicking away the weapon.

His heart began to pound as he watched the man pick up the lethal weapon and aimed in at her head. "You're... You're insane!" Mina yelled, throwing her purse at his chest.

"I'll kill you, and this little mutt you've got over here too..." He threatened. Kentaro was still in hiding, shaking to his feet. 'Daddy...' He thought, slowly peering out.

Nakashima noticed his son, and lowered the gun. He seemed to have a change of heart, but it was still unnoticed by the two. "Kent-"

He grunted his pain after getting kicking in the crotch from behind, bending his knees. "Fuck!" He shouted. Jyugo ceased the gun he held, aiming it at his chest. "G-Get out! Leave our family alone!"

Nakashima retracted his foot, nearly losing his footing. "Hey! Calm down, Jy-Jyugo. All of this was a joke..."

"Jyu! Don't shoot him! Don't shoot my dad!" He shouted. "It shouldn't matter! It's not like he's my real dad anyway... And we're not even twins!" He yelled, turning to his brother.

"My real dad is in jail! And this dad is abusing our mother!" Nakashima smirked, and went for the gun.

In fear, Jyugo pulled the trigger as his step dad held the barrel. He then stumbled back, letting go of the weapon.

Blood began to drip down his shoulder, hearing the devious man cackle. "Did you honestly think you can aim that gun at me correctly? I'll show you how."

Jyugo's crimson eyes began to fill with tears, scared for his life. A yellow liquid also began to leak out his pants.

Bang.
