Ai No Shinjitsu 4

 

Riki scowled over at Chi and wondered if she had lost her mind. “I'm supposed to work with him.” He pointed at the tall man wearing the long red trench coat. The man looked at him and smirked before he blew an indolent kiss. Iason frowned and towered over the man who had looked down on Riki.

“Actually,” Chi said with a grin blocking Iason from his present course of violence. “I was planning on having Okyo come and lend us some tech support as well.” Chi beamed a smile and Riki wondered how she had remained frozen for so long with such abundant warmth that she exuded. “She does work well doesn't she?” she said as she draped and arm around Riki. Sengoku frowned and wondered exactly what the elven princess had in mind. Was she going to match Okyo with the dark haired... “Mongrel... no never, Iason would probably send me back to my palace in flames. Any you know we Ice elementals can't have that.” Iason and Riki both looked at Chi as if she had lost what was left of her mind while Sengoku frowned and refused to make eye contact with anyone. Had she just read his mind? “Uh huh,” Chi said with an animated nod of her bouncy curls.

“You are frighteningly adorable,” Benton said to Chi with a calm, assessing look. Chi looked into his bright eyes and smiled. “But, what would you have me do?”

Chi stepped to Benton and ran her hands through his flowing Platinum hair. “Very beautiful, lighter than Jupiter's triumph even.” Chi said with a small smile at Iason. “I need your skills with computers and infiltration. I believe that the only way the final blow will be dealt is from inside Jupiter's mainframe. I need Riki and Sengoku to accompany me inside.”

Iason perked up and looked at Chi over his computer screen. “What will you all be doing?”

“Hey Blondie, I have a mouth. I can ask my own questions.” Riki scowled over at Iason before he looked back at Chi. “Ditto.”

Chi smiled at Iason's irked expression. It must be true love, only true love could stand up to a smartass, and an overbearing, over-protective... Chi was brought from her musings when Riki cleared his throat. “Oh well, we will be looking for Kalen. She and I have a lot to discuss.” Iason was amused by the look of rage that crossed the elven princess's face. Her ears even trembled as she pouted. Chi looked away and took a moment to compose herself. “Thank you gentlemen, I will return when I have Okyo in my company. As for you Benton and Katze, please get to work on Phase one of what I like to call the destruction of intolerable cruelty. Raoul, you will be on hand to give your opinion on Jupiter's malfunctions. Make sure you let every one know that perhaps her antiquated way of running things aren't so good.”

“That is not a good idea.” Riki said with a thoughtful look out of the window. “The Blondies here are used to being the top of the food chain. They love the way Jupiter has things set up and they will fight to keep things the way they are. You could put his life at risk.”

Raoul turned surprised eyes to look at Riki. “You are correct. I am aiding you all out of loyalty to Iason, I find no fault with Jupiter's law.”

“You absolutely nothing wrong with treating your fellow humans as cattle. As... As... Brainless sex dolls.” Chi frowned and her ears began to appear more pointed as her ire grew. “I lost the man I loved because of Kalen, and thus Jupiter's sense of superiority. You truly see nothing wrong with separating these two because of class differences?” Chi asked and Raoul looked at Iason, his best friend since childhood, to Riki, a low class mongrel who was not even a citizen. They were looking at each other with a passion he had never seen before, let alone experienced. Chi sighed when Raoul did not answer. Chi waved a hand and in a cloud of ice crystals she vanished.

Katze looked at the swirling air and then turned a determined smile on Iason and said. “Well actually in celebration of your return...” Katze said with a grin and pushed a button on his metal wrist band. Sengoku winced when he thought of similar the bracelet was to his neck collar. But if what the elf said was true, they were both manufactured using the same advanced technology.

“Celebration?” Iason quirked a beautifully sculpted blond brow.

Katze smiled when the door chimed and several elites in white suits entered pulling a bound creature. Chains creaked as streams of long brown hair parted and Riki gasped as steel gray eyes bored into him. “You're alive... Riki, you're alive.” Guy hobbled a step towards his former pairing partner, his face lit with unspeakable joy. Iason shoved Riki behind him and planted a fist in Guys jaw.

“You said you wouldn't hurt him.” Riki yelled and Benton brought a delicate hand to his ears at the loud decibels the dark haired man could achieve. Riki paid no mind to the fact that he had screamed in the other mans ear.

“When he cut you all deals were off.” Iason answered and reached inside of Raoul's jacket. When he pulled out his friend's long, bejeweled dagger and activated the bright green laser. Guy dropped to his bottom and scooted away from the enraged mass of Blondie approaching him. Riki ran around and placed his body in front of Guy. “Move,” Iason commanded and glared around Riki at Guy who sat trembling on the floor. He remembered keenly the beating Iason had dealt him in Dahna Bahn. He remembered the ripped off arm and the sound of his own ribs cracking under the force of the blows.

Riki launched his body into Iason and turned his head against Iason's chest taking a moment to inhale his scent. “You promised you would not hurt him.”

Iason visibly swallowed and he held tight to Riki careful of the position of his blade. “I just thought that suffering the same fate, the wild animal would be more careful with a blade the next time he was near your balls.” Iason and Riki both ignored the pained, sympathy gasps from Sengoku and Goggles. Benton hid a frown behind a long fingered, well manicured hand Guy looked around the room and then down at the floor when no one looked to understand what he had done.

“I begged...” Guy said and clamored to his knees staring hard at Riki. “I begged you. You did not have to be mine, just to not be his. He had everything in life, from the moment of his conception he was favored. He never had to work for anything, he did not deserve you. I only wanted to set you free. Every time you broke away, he reeled you back in with dirty tricks and black mail. He put Bison on the line just so that he could fuck you.”

“That's enough Guy.” Riki said finally turning his face away from Iason's finely covered chest. Riki turned to face his mutilator and a tear fell down his face. I told you, didn't I? I told you that I had been tainted. That Iason was in my skin. I showed you the places that craved his touch. I was not lying to you. I could only tell you that my body was addicted, I could not tell you that my heart was his as well. You had already beaten me once before, I had to make you see. To understand.” Riki said and stepped back closer to Iason's large, warm body. “If I went back to him this time, that it would be for good.”

“How can you love him?” Guy surged to his feet and gasped when he felt a slim wire wrap around his neck and pull him back down. His eyes swung wild about the room in search of the culprit responsible for restraining him. Sengoku backed away at the silver wire that was extending from Benton's high tech ring. “I loved you, I took care of you. I looked up to you. I never would have figured you for a back alley whore sold to the highest bidder. You are worse than a pet.... Worse.” Guy fell to his backside and lowered his head and tears fell to the pristine floor. “I only wanted to set you free. What kind of bull shit are you living in?”

Iason saw the hurt look on Riki's face and growled. “I should have ripped off more than your arm.” He declared and Katze smiled at his friend's rage.

“Perhaps, Iason, we could send him to the Blue Dragon.” Katze said with a grin. Sengoku raised a brow at the horrified gasp Guy released.

“Don't look here for help.” Sengoku said when Guy looked around the room in fear of being permanent property of a BDSM club known for it's sadistic clientèle. “Whatever they do to you, can be no less than cutting off a man's balls.” Sengoku glanced at Riki. “In Oedo, we have machines that can help you.”

“Already taken care of,” Iason said and deactivated the dagger before he handed it back to Raoul. “Or I would have killed him on sight.”
