Privileges.
Atsushi was quick to learn if he was good and did what his master Dazai told him, he earned rewards. Sometimes those rewards were favorite foods or even books that Atsushi was allowed to keep but lately it was freedom.
Dazai had taken to giving Atsushi hard tasks to complete and if the teen succeeded, he earned a little more freedom as a reward. Currently Atsushi was allowed to leave his room and go to the library when he liked. The teen always had someone following him and watching. At first it had annoyed Atsushi but it didn't bother him so much now.
Outside.
That was the newest reward Dazai was offering him and Atsushi was desperate for it. He was tired of being cooped up inside all the time. He wanted to be outside and lay in the sun or even run! At least he was allowed to open his window and allow fresh air in his room. Atsushi's fingers brushed over the black collar around his neck. A pet. That's all he was to Dazai and some days Atsushi hated it. He hated the degrading kitten comments but the teen had learned to not speak out about them. Atsushi had been severely punished the few times he did. He had also learned about the invisible fences. If Atsushi got too close to certain areas an alarm would go off and he'd be shocked by the collar.
Atsushi worked hard to complete everything Dazai asked of him. He wanted a taste of being outside. At first he was only allowed five minutes and he was heavily supervised by guards armed with tranquilizers in case Atsushi tried to run but now Atsushi was allowed to be outside for thirty minutes with a relaxed guard. His collar and alarm would let them know if Atsushi got too close to the walls or gate. Every so often someone would come and watch Atsushi for a bit before leaving. All Atsushi did was lay in the grass or against a tree as he read a book. On the days he had a lot of energy, Atsushi was seen running around the yard barefoot before rolling around in the grass.
Atsushi was currently enjoying his time outside when he was approached by several people he didn't recognize. While Atsushi didn't know everyone in the mafia, he knew the majority of its members, and he didn't recall hearing Dazai say they got new recruits recently so..just who were these guys?
"So you're the pet we've been hearing about," one of them said and Atsushi tilted his head slightly. Did everyone think of him as Dazai's pet? He didn't like that thought.
"We had heard rumors the boss had gotten himself a pet but we didn't believe it," another said. "Seems the rumors were true." Atsushi stiffened as the three men approached him.
"So pet, tell us, what secrets does the boss tell you?" The third one asked and Atsushi panicked seeing them pull out knives. This wasn't going to end well. "What is the boss' next move?" The teen turned to run and he ran right into something solid. Expecting Dazai, Atsushi looked up hopefully but his expression quickly changed to fear as he took a few steps back.
"Looks like someone needs to be more aware of their surroundings," the man said and he quickly reached out and grabbed Atsushi by the hair. The teen whimpered softly as he was yanked forward before crying out in pain as something sharp was shoved into his left side. He managed to look over his shoulder and saw the third man had stabbed him.
"The sooner you spill, the sooner this stops," he said with a grin.
"I don't know Ren, I kind of like the idea of hurting him anyway to send a message," the first one said.
"Don't use names Levi!" the second guy, Ren, said angrily. "Shit." Well Atsushi had two names now as well as what they looked like. Atsushi practically screamed in pain as the knife in his side was twisted and he tried to get away.
"If you two idiots would stop talking and focus on the task at hand please," the guy holding Atsushi's hair said. The teen looked around frantically and he wished his guard wasn't so relaxed now. He was also too far from the perimeter fence to set off the alarm. A cry of pain escaped as Atsushi was stabbed elsewhere and he struggled harder and he managed to get free, at the cost of a handful of hair. It was a small price to pay.
Atsushi tried to run toward the mansion and he was slammed into from behind. A hand grabbed a handful of his hair and shoved his face into the dirt. "Stupid move kid," Ren said as he dug a knee into the teen's spine drawing a whimper from Atsushi. "Does the boss hear these kinds of sounds from you when he fucks you?"
"Tell us slut, does he tell you secrets while he fucks you? I'll bet you like pain." Levi laughed as he kicked Atsushi in his side and the teen yelped in pain. "I wonder what other sounds you can make."
Atsushi lost track of time as he was kicked and hit and knocked around. He was so dizzy from his head being hit and his ribs were sore.
"I think that's enough for now," someone said and Atsushi didn't even know who was who anymore and he didn't care. He just wanted the pain to stop.
"Wait. I want to leave a parting gift. Hold him down on his stomach." Atsushi panicked hearing that and he weakly struggled in vain as his arms and legs were held down and someone was sitting on his waist.
"Don't!" Atsushi yelled panicked as his shirt was pushed up and he tasted blood as he was punched in his mouth. Atsushi spit the blood out and he screamed in pain feeling something sharp slicing his flesh.
"There. All done. Your master should like our gift. Everytime he fucks you, it will be all he sees." They laughed as they released him and Atsushi curled up into a ball. He was kicked one more time before being spit on and then he was finally left alone. Atsushi laid there for a bit crying softly before forcing his aching body to get up and move.
The teen didn't want to be seen like this so he made his way inside the mansion. He knew all the guard patterns so it was easy to make it back to his room and he slipped inside before closing the door. Atsushi went into the bathroom and he winced looking at himself in the mirror. He was a mess, bruises, cuts and blood covered his skin and Atsushi saw he had a split lip and he licked the cut before wincing. Atsushi quickly got a shower running and he stripped before getting under the water, he'd get clothes after he was clean.
Atsushi was maybe a few minutes into his shower when suddenly the bathroom door was slammed open and loud footsteps followed. The teen yelped as the glass door was opened and he was yanked out by a firm grip on his wrist. Dazai. Atsushi stood before the mafia boss, trembling from cold and fear.
"Jesus Dazai, you could have knocked," Chuuya said annoyed as he came into the bathroom and blue eyes widened as he took in Atsushi's appearance. "I suppose this explains the blood in the garden. What happened Nakajima? The guard went out to check on you and you were gone. He found blood but you were nowhere to be found. We checked the chip in your collar and it said you were here."
"They..they were convinced Dazai-san tells me his plans. I only got two of their names, Ren and Levi, but I promise I didn't say anything." Dazai still looked pissed and that scared him.
"How badly are you hurt?" Dazai asked, finally speaking and Atsushi was surprised by the gentle tone. Dazai was looking over Atsushi's naked form, taking in every cut, scrape and bruise. Atsushi shrank back, scared that he was in trouble. Anyone could tell Dazai was beyond pissed.
"It's nothing I can't heal from sir," Atsushi replied, keeping his voice soft, eyes on the ground.
"Where else did they hurt you." Dazai spoke again and Atsushi could tell it wasn't a question.
"My..my back," he answered meekly.
"Turn around." The grip on his wrist was released and Atsushi did as he was told and he turned around showing his back to Chuuya and Dazai.
"How dare they," Dazai snarled angrily, as he stared at the word "slut" carved into Atsushi's back, and the teen whimpered.
"How long will it take you to heal from this Nakajima?" Chuuya asked gently, and he moved around Atsushi to gently stroke his cheek.
"Two hours at most I think," Atsushi said softly and he looked over his shoulder at Dazai. "Can..can I finish my shower sir?"
"You may, but first," the boss approached Atsushi and he cupped the teen's cheek before he brushed his thumb across the split lip, blood getting on his finger. Atsushi winced but he didn't say anything, nor did he say anything when cold fingers traced over the letters of his back. "I don't want to waste anymore of your blood." Two toned eyes widened as Atsushi watched Dazai bring his bloodied fingers to his mouth before licking the blood from them.
Chuuya made what could have been a sound of disgust as he helped Atsushi back into the shower. "If you want, I'll clean your back for you," he offered gently and Atsushi nodded before passing Chuuya the sponge and soap. Chuuya was gentle as he cleaned Atsushi's back and he handed the teen back the sponge. "I'll bring you some clothes okay?" At the nod he received, Chuuya closed the glass door and went into the bedroom to get the teen fresh clothes. Dazai was waiting for him on the teen's bed.
"Get a description of the ones who hurt him and report back to me. No one hurts what belongs to me and gets away with it." Dazai's gaze was murderous as he looked at Chuuya.
"Yes boss." Chuuya bowed before watching the brunet leave and he sighed softly. Someone was going to die. Chuuya took the change of clothes to the bathroom and he waited patiently for Atsushi to come out. Chuuya asked Atsushi a few questions and the teen answered them as best as he could. Chuuya then told him to get some rest and he gently ran his fingers through silver strands. Atsushi relaxed under the gentle touches and eventually he fell asleep.
"I promise we will find who did this to you, and return the favor tenfold."
