Mr. Akita looks at us all and then his eyes land on me and I sense a scary feeling radiating off of him.
"You girl, Who are you?"
before I could speak a familiar voice rings out behind them.
" Well, Mr. President Akita that is my younger sister. "
I feel my heart drop when Kazuki walks in wearing a high mage uniform.
(No...No way he's made it this far into the government...)
I pinch my wrist behind my back holding back all of my hatred stopping myself from making a scene, instead I put on a polite smile and look straight into Kazuki's eyes.
"Hello, elder brother what are you doing here today?"
Kazuki smirks.
" I am here to conduct business with Mr. Akita, It has been a while Yuki."
he walks over to me and puts an arm around my shoulders. I pinch myself harder drawing blood.
(This is getting too much, his dirty hands are now touching me! I want nothing to do with this bastard! I can't wait for the day till I can finally take him down, but now I'm at a disadvantage I need to be careful to not make a scene right now.)
"So this is your younger sister? Little girl, you must be proud to have an older brother who's as talented as him arent you."
I silently nod.
"Mr. Akita if you don't mind id like to take my little sister away for a brief moment to have a word with her if that's alright?."
Mr. Akita nods with a warm smile.
"Of course."
I look back at Kirito who nods at me before we walk out of the room, The door shuts behind us and I immediately shake his arm off of me.
"If you dare touch me again I'll expose you right here right now."
I whisper but Kazuki smirks and grabs my hand throwing me into the next room closing the door behind us.
"Kazuki!-"
Before I could speak he pushes me up against the wall and covers my mouth with his hand, fear courses through me as he inches closer to my face his breath on my ear.
"If you dare to expose me then what do you think might happen to your dear mother?"
my eyes widen.
(It was him! He took my mother!)
I try to wiggle my way out of his grasp but he grabs my wrist pinning it up against the wall while still covering my mouth with his other hand.
"If you want her back all you have to do is obey me or else each time you don't obey me I'll start sending peaces of her to you, got it?"
Tears rush down my face and I nod.
"Good girl."
He lets go of my mouth and I take a deep breath in but just as soon as I exhale he punches me in the stomach and I fall to the floor.
"Gha!"
He quickly takes the opportunity to shove a pill into my mouth as he sits on top of me holding both my arms down and places his other hand over my mouth to make me swallow it.
(No! I must not swallow it or else something bad might happen again!)
"Yuki, have you forgotten what I just told you moments ago? obey me or else."
(Damn it!)
I swallow it and he smirks once more.
"Good girl, now before I let you up I must warn you, what you just took will make you violently sick for the next couple of days. If you use any magic it will kill you, maybe not immediately but it has its limit. And the only antidote is right here in this vile. "
He holds up a small jar with a dark liquid in it.
"If you want your life and mother back then come to me of your own free will, you will know where to meet me, you have one month as of today to make up your mind, I must warn you though that after one month if you choose to stay here then I will kill your mother, then I'll move onto killing everyone else you cherish"
I bite his hands and he slaps me.
"Don't push your luck, Yuki! I may not have been able to kill you back then but I can make your life miserable till the day you die!"
He slaps me again and I fall back onto the floor.
"I-I hate you so much Kazuki! I will one day kill you!!"
Tears drip down my face as he comes over to me.
"Well keep that hatred look on your face I think it suits you best anyway."
He laughs and then opens the door closing it behind him as he leaves. The moment he walks out tears poor out of my eyes and I bring my knees to my chest and cry silently, After a few moments I take my phone out and use it to see the damage done to my face. A red mark alongside my cheek could be seen and my stomach ached from being punched with so much force. I struggle to stand up but force myself to do so, I move my hair to cover the red mark and wipe my eyes, I then make my way back to the room where everyone was at. Kirito was the first one to notice my silent entrance, I go and sit behind everyone else hoping to not be acknowledged. And as soon as the meeting is done we go back to the train station, in a daze not really paying attention to anyone, once back on the train I take the window seat as its night out so it was dark and hard to see and Kirito sits down next to me, he pulls the curtain closed and taps my shoulder.
(What shall I say to him? I really don't feel like having a conversation right now I'm so tired and weak feeling...)
I side glance him trying to not show my face but he reaches his hand out and my heart skips a beat as he moves my hair out of my face. His worried expression turns to pure anger.
"What else did he do to you?!"
I reach out to cover his mouth to keep him quiet but am stopped by the extreme sharp pain from Kazuki's punch earlier to my stomach I flinch and cover it sweating in a cold sweat from all the pain I am in.
"Yuki!"
he pulls me into his embrace as I shake.
"Please just...just leave it alone Kirito."
I nearly collapse in his embrace and he holds me up placing his hand around me.
"Ok, but for now let me treat your wounds."
He places some ointment on my wrist and then lifts up my shirt to see a big bruise on my abdomen. he slightly touches it and I winch in pain.
(Kirito's pov)
(I can tell she's holding everything in, she looks so tired and pale. She must be in a lot of pain, from the looks of this bruise it looks like Kazuki hit her extremely hard, her breathing isn't labored that bad so I'm sure her internal organs are ok, but why is she so pale and weak looking, something else is causing her to be like this but knowing Yuki, she probably won't tell me right away.)
I put some healing ointment on the bruise and wrap it up, as soon as I finish I put my arm around her to hold her close to comfort her, and I can feel her tears hit my arm. It's way too dark to see her face right now so I take the next step to make her feel better.
(Yuki pov)
I feel Kirito's hand lift my chin up and he places a gentle yet passionate kiss onto my lips, my heart skips many beats as he inches closer to me pushing my back onto the seat while deepening the kiss, in between kisses he calls my name in a low whiper.
"Yuki."
We pant a little from the breathess long kisses he pushes me even further into the seat but I try to push him away for fear of going any further and in between our kiss I manage to speak up.
"Kirito...what am I to you?"
He stops and pulls away a little bit and he places his hand onto my cheek and is silent for a moment before speaking back.
"Your mine...and I am yours."
he plants a more aggressive kiss but I flinch in a trembling pain and he quickly backs off.
"What's wrong? Are you hurt?"
(The pill must be kicking in...I can't let Kirito know or else mother will be killed, but this...this pain I have never felt before its as if all of my bones in my entire body is breaking all at once and being sanded into dust while being on fire I just want to scream but I can't, I just want to breathe but it's unbearable!)
I gasp and push him away a little bit shaking and feeling sick from the pain trying to catch my breath.
"Please...please Kirito don't tell anyone about this..."
I try to take quick breaths in between each wave.
"If you do...something really bad is going to happen! I can deal with the pain just...don't say anything..."
I could feel my body on fire and my breathing labored. My vision became blurry and it then got really quiet, before I knew what was happening I had fainted.
(Kirito pov.)
I catch her as she faints and can feel her rapid heartbeat and fever burning through her skin.
(something is wrong but I can't just let anyone know! what should I do?!)
As the train comes to our destination I place my jacket over Yuki and pick her up having her face towards me so no one could see. Ms. Natsumi smirks when she sees me holding a sleeping Yuki.
"I wouldn't say this in front of her but you I can mess with, I think you two look cute together. "
she laughs and I give her a wry smile.
we get back to the dorms and I place her onto the bed and check her temperature. It was already at 105. I shake my head and pace back and forth scratching my head on what to do.
"Shower! I can shower her."
I gulp and carry her to the bathroom, I take her clothes off and put a towel around her then turn on the shower, I climb in holding her and sit down with her in my lap as she moans that it's so cold she shivers and buries her face into the crook of my neck.
"So cold...please I'm so cold."
I put my arms around her as the water hits us both and she shivers uncontrollably.
"I know but we have to get the fever down it's way to high."
She slightly opens her eyes I could tell she was completely out of it from the fever and pain, she plants a kiss on my lips I could feel her lips were burning hot.
(Damn this isn't working fast enough.)
I grab some medicine and place it in my mouth, I then place it in her mouth via mine and she swallows it. I sigh in relief knowing she got it in her system at least. I take her to her bed and place a cool rag on her head and lock the door before climbing in bed to comfort her.
(The next morning Yuki pov.)
I wake up in a strong gaze but feeling completely nauseated, I weakly look up and notice that Kirito had his arms around me and is fast asleep, I silently get up and notice I was in just a towel, I silently blush and go to the bathroom as quickly as possible to throw up what looked like blood.
(This is just the beginning he said...it looks like I really won't be able to use magic.)
I clean myself up and put a nightgown on and then go back to my room where Kirito wakes up to look at me as I close the door behind me.
"How do you feel?"
I shake my head.
"Honestly not so good."
(I feel so shaky, sickening, and weak. There is no way I'll be able to do the tournament whenn it starts back up as it looks now.)
He pulls me back down onto the bed and kisses my forehead.
"Your fever isn't as high as it was last night but it's best for you to stay here for the next couple of days, I will tell them your sick with the flu and won't be able to participate in the tournament."
I nod.
"Ok...and thank you."
he rubs my head.
"Don't move I'll be back in a little while."
he gets up and leaves, I take a couple of deep breaths and feel tears rush to my face.
(How did it come to this...)
I lay my arm over my eyes while I cry.
(After everything I have worked so hard to accomplish it's as if one setback after another and Kazuki always wins! He's always 10 steps ahead of me and I can't keep up! I couldn't even fight him off yesterday! not even a little)
I silently cry myself to sleep once again.
