Walking around after a long time, Atsushi feels exhausted as well as the others so all of them went into a cafe to take a coffee break.
"Atsushi!!" But all of a sudden, Mina called out to him as he got dragged in by men in black in a black van and immediately drove away.
'Oh my gosh, did you see that?'
'Should we call the police?'
'I feel so sorry for him'
'I hope nothing bad happens to him, he looks like a nice guy'
The people around who witnessed the scene were either worried, scared, and mostly doesn't care, they watched as Rin tried to chase after them by running but he only ended up being exhausted.
"Atsushi!!!" He screamed with helplessness as he passed out from all the stress and rush of blood that he had just now.
"Rin!" Yuki ran toward him along with the group when they saw him passing out, their face was expressing their worry and Yuu has a grim expression as he thought that it must be another doing of that certain man, Jiro!
On the other hand, Atsushi tried to struggle from the bind, he kept silent as his mouth was covered with a muffler.
"It's useless resisting" A voice resounded from behind him, unfortunately, he couldn't see who it is as his back was facing him.
"You don't have to know who I am, I was only paid to do this, it seems our client this time really hates you" The man chuckled as he walked closer to Atsushi, his footsteps can be heard with every single step.
Atsushi felt two hands rest on his shoulders and he tried to get away and the man taps on his shoulders loudly before taking an eye mask from his pocket and slid his fingers on the victim's soft cheeks, the latter turned away, not liking what the man is doing with his face.
"You don't have to see anything" The man whispered at his ear as he slowly put the eye mask on, Atsushi looked left and right in an attempt to escape the dark, he can hear his heartbeats clearly between his ears, pounding strongly against his chest.
"Seeing you struggle hypes me up" The man stated but received no reaction, he chuckled and went in front of Atsushi as he thought of what he should do.
"Soul, come here" The man called out and a pair of footsteps were heard walking toward them.
"What is it?" It seems this person is called Soul, he looked at the man who called him and asked with coldness, and not an ounce of respect was heard in his voice.
"Why don't you hit him?" The reply he received was definitely not unexpected, he looked at the man with confusion.
"Why should I, Rain?" The man called Rain chuckled from his question and glared.
"Just do it, hit him at least once an hour or something, always keep him awake" Rain replied, humor was no longer displayed on his once casual face and walked away as Soul watched him leave before turning his gaze back on Atsushi who was being cautious.
"Ugh!" A grunt was heard deep within Atsushi's chest as a loud bang was heard as he fell backward, being punch straight in the stomach is definitely not pleasant.
Not satisfied, Soul kicked the other man on his side, he was close on spitting out blood, his jaws were held roughly before being thrown back down to the floor, not able to suppress it, Atsushi coughed out blood that is stuck on his chest and throat.
Soul beat him up every hour, other men splash water on his delicate figure to keep him awake, he felt so scared and stressed as he felt his tears gathering in his eyes but he can't let them out, afraid that he'll make them mad or excited from his pain and fear.
Feeling the sleepiness dawning on him, he couldn't help but close his eyes but he tried to stay awake, he kept on blinking but in the end, he fully closed his eyes.
"Oh no, that shouldn't happen, you should stay awake or else this won't be torture otherwise" Soul from out of nowhere cackled and splashed water on Atsushi, the latter coughed as a tiny amount of water got into his mouth all of a sudden.
"Let's go for another round, I'm getting bored" Soul casually said and Atsushi shook and attempted to back away but he was tied, he couldn't move properly.
"Men! tie him up in the poles" Soul demanded and footstep were heard as they approached Atsushi, harshly gripping him and out of his bindings before dragging him into the poles, his hands were separated as they tied him up, his feet are free and he was forcefully tied in a standing position.
"Ack!" A small cry of pain echoed in the room as the men around them watched Atsushi intently as he coughed up blood and hissed at the pain that he received from the punch, he backed away but he was brought back with the help of the binds connected in his hands.
"I'm already going easy on you, be grateful" Soul said as he gave Atsushi another punch but much stronger than all the previous punches he gave, the former passed out from the impact as he let out a grunt and blood dripped out of his mouth slowly.
"I said stay awake" Soul repeated and displeased as he splashed cold water on Atsushi once again, the latter woke up wide open from the freezing water.
"Oh boi, your eye mask is very wet, let's change it" Soul complained and told one of his men to take another eye mask, with everyone out of Atsushi's sight, the former took the old mask off before putting a new one on.
"Tsk, that's right, why did I change it when they'll splash water on you anyway" He said and scratched his head as he thought hard about it before walking away.
"Watch him, don't let him sleep" And just as he ordered, Atsushi was kept awaken as the men took turns on splashing waters on his face, he was looking grim and tired, the men watched him struggle with interest.
It always happens every 10 mins and 15 mins whenever he falls asleep, they would wait for him to actually close his eyes before making a move of waking him up, actually not being awake to have a wink of sleep, Atsushi's eyes were bloodshot and he was very moody.
All of a sudden, there were running and screaming around him and he was confused but all of a sudden his binds were cut down and he was taken forcefully and dragged roughly.
"Ouch" Feeling the sharp nails scratched against his skin as he was tightly held.
They came into a stop and Atsushi was pushed aside and he fell down the floor, confused about what's happening, he looked around and with his free hand, he reached out for the mask and took it off.
"Kyouya?" Atsushi said when he adjusted his vision and his eyes landed on the man in front of him, smiling at him sweetly but when he turned to look back at his enemy, his expression was serious.
"Tsk, who are you?!" The man in front of Kyouya asked with a similar voice of the man called Soul, he thought this man would actually look good but his name was the only good point that he has.
"You don't need to know, all you have to know is that you hurt my beloved!" Kyouya raged and anger was welling up his chest.
Soul attacked head-on but before landing a blow, he was kicked down by the other without any helplessness, not even able to retaliate, Soul stayed down obediently and he was dragged away along with some of his other mates.
'Rain? you also got caught?'
His voice was heard from afar as they were dragged toward the van and was forcefully shoved inside.
"Atsushi! Are you alright?" As soon as they took everyone out, Kyouya ran up to him with worry and pulled him to his safe embrace, feeling the warmth, Atsushi bawled his eyes out as he felt wronged and suffered greatly, he was fully exhausted and immediately fell asleep after crying.
Kyouya looked up with a grim expression and carried Atsushi on his arms before walking toward his car, he set Atsushi down at the back to get proper sleep and went back to the place and punched the wall with frustration and anger, he was still angry that Atsushi got abducted under his nose, who dared to do this?!
He walked slowly back to the car before driving off toward his place and occasionally checked the mirror to see how Atsushi was doing.
Upon reaching his destination, he carried Atsushi once again and walked toward his room and set him down gently on the soft mattress, the young man looked so terrible and pale, it made Kyouya worry greatly if he hadn't received Rin's call then he wouldn't have known what would actually happen.
Earlier,
Rin was shaking and called Kyouya, it took him a few more calls to get him on the phone.
"Atsushi was abducted!!" Rin straightforwardly explained the reason why he called.
'I'll find him, don't worry, he'll be back by tomorrow'
Although Kyouya seemed calm, he was actually surprised and worried about Atsushi and he immediately called all his resources and searched for Atsushi's location, to hack in all of the camera systems and call all the underground gangs and finally after half a day of searching, they found his location, receiving the location, Kyouya rushed on the place with his backups.
Flashback ended and Kyouya stood up before heading for the kitchen to cook a meal for Atsushi because he was sure that he hasn't eaten anything today, it was almost noon, the night already passed and it was already another day when he got Atsushi back.
It took him half an hour to finish cooking but Atsushi showed no sign of waking up so Kyouya got up and decided to sleep beside the younger man, peace and great joy settled within his heart with the evidence of warmth the seems to spread into his chest, it indicated that Atsushi was safe and sound next to him.
