Never Again! By Kuno-baby
Chapter 5
"Wakey, wakey, Relena! Breakfast is here." David cheerfully announced.
Relena came awake in surprise. She stretched before freezing up at that voice. She looked up and saw his grinning face smiling back her.
No! It couldn't be? He's dead! David's dead!
He came in dressed in green shorts and a white wife beater shirt. He looked so normal. No one would look at him and see a crazed madman holding a girl captive in his home. Maybe she was just as insane for being use to this.
"Lena, hurry up and eat. I made all your favorites." David gestured to the food on the tray. Eggs, bacon, grits and toast were carefully laid out on the plate. He was eager to get her to eat...meaning the food was drugged.
"No, you're dead. I-I killed you. You can't be alive!" Relena said, starting to feel hysterical. Where was Heero? Milliardo and Noin? Was her rescue only a sick dream? She took in her surroundings. The same barren, cracked walls. Same dirty mattress and the chain attached to her ankles. She moved her leg and almost cried. The heavy weight of it was real!
"Lena, what are talking about? You know I'd never leave you." David smiled.
Relena crawled back on her hands and knees to put distance between them. Hampered by her steel chains, she could only go so far.
Oh God! I'm in hell! David's dead. He has to be!
"I killed you! Get away from me you freak!" Relena screamed, crouching against the wall.
David frowned at that. "That wasn't very nice of you, Lena. You could never kill me. You don't have the balls to do it."
Before she could try to defend herself, David slammed himself on top of her. Sitting on her stomach, he used his heavier weight to hold her down while she struggled. Cursing him, Relena tried hard to pull free but it was no use. He slapped her across the face, stunning her and giving him another advantage. David grasped her wrist together in one hand and held them over her head. With his other hand, he caressed down her stomach, before forcing her legs open with his knee. He thrusts two fingers into her vagina and relentlessly stabbed her over and over again. Relena cried out in pain as he cruelly stretched her. She writhed in pain, kicking her feet while he just sneered above her. Feeling his arousal against her stomach, Relena wanted to retch.
No! This can't be real. God, please make it stop.
"You belong to me, Lena. I'll never let you go." David said, bending to kiss her.
As soon as he bent to kiss her, the image disappeared. David was gone. Relena looked around and saw she was still the basement. This was dream, right? She wasn't insane?
The door opened and David reappeared once more. "I brought you chicken and mashed potatoes, Lena. And some cake. How does that sound?" he said, moving slowly toward her.
She recognized his familiar clothing and the tray of food. She felt the hair on her neck rise at the implication.
The day he died. Oh God! I'll have to relive that day!
"Stop it right now, Relena. I'm not putting up with your silent treatment and I know you're not
sleep. Damnit, say something!"
Relena watched him yelling at the still form on the floor and felt oddly ill in her gut.
Davis stood there with the tray of food for a few minutes before it dawned on him she didn't
appear to be breathing. "Relena, stop playing around."
Not getting any answer, David flung the food aside and rushed to her side. Cautiously turning her
over her tensed up for an attack. But nothing happened. Her eyes were closed and she didn't
seem to be breathing. "Oh, God. Relena, don't be dead!"
He hugged her close to his chest and rocked her back and forth, sobbing loudly. David suddenly
jerked, his eyes widening in shock and pain. He gasped for breath as Relena's hand came up again
to stab him in the throat. Blood poured out of the wounds in a disgusting bloody gush. He jerked
away from her, clutching at his throat, but he was losing too much blood too fast and he weakly
slumped to the side on the mattress.
"R-Rele-" David gurgled as blood spilled out of his mouth and his eyes fell into the back of his
head.
Relena held a hand over her mouth unable to turn away from the horrible sight. She watched her other self stabbing and stabbing and stabbing him. Blood spurted everywhere. Covering the walls, soaking completely through clothing. She just kept stabbing him.
The sounds of tearing flesh rang loudly in Relena's ear as she watched her counterpart tear into the still form of David. There was so much blood!
Oh, god! I'm a monster!
Relena jerked wake screaming. It was nighttime and only the open window shade provided any light. She turned to her side and saw Heero lying in bed with her. She quickly scanned the room and saw familiar, welcome surroundings. She sobbed in happiness.
Heero leaned over her and wiped her tears from her eyes gently. His expression showed his worry and concern.
"Are you real?" she cried out, touching his face tentatively.
"I'm real, Relena. It was just a dream. No one's going to ever harm you again." He said.
Crying out in relief, Relena clasped her arms around his neck and held on tight. Not saying anything, he wrapped his arms around her waist. They stayed like that the rest of the night.
****************
The following morning, Heero took Relena for a walk in the park. Afraid being cooped up too long in one place would make her frightened, he got her out of the house. Disguised in a brown wig, Relena blended in with the crowd. Holding hands, Heero and Relena looked like any other couple in love. And maybe they were, except their relationship was unbelievably complicated.
Finding a nice secluded spot, Heero and Relena sat down under an old oak tree. Relena leaned her head on Heero's shoulder and they enjoyed the day. Sunny out, everyone must have decided the park was the place to be. People played games. Flew kites and sunbathed. Relena wished she felt so free.
Suddenly an orange rubber ball rolled in their direction and bounced off the toe of Relena's sandals, before completely stopping. A little boy of no more than five or six years ran after it.
Huffing out of breathe, he ran up to Relena. "Can I have my ball, miss?"
Nodding, Relena picked it up and handed it to him. He was an adorable little boy with his matching green shorts and stripped yellow/green t-shirt. She felt her heart melt seeing he had hair similar to Heero's. Imagining Heero as a boy, she couldn't felt but grin.
"Thanks. You wanna play, too?" he asked, showing her a gap tooth grin.
If she didn't he was adorable enough, that won her over. Shaking her head no, she waved him off to play. He waved good-bye and ran, kicking his ball through the grass.
Heero was glad he'd brought her. That innocent kid's remark had brightened up her day. She'd always had a soft spot for children and animals. He watched her following the boy's movements with her eyes and smiling.
Leaning her head back on his shoulder, she sighed. "Do you think I could be a good mother now?"
"You'd be the best." Heero said, stroking her hair with his hand.
Relena daydreamed that day...about children of her own. Their children.
***************
Dr. Grimes arrived exactly at 1 p.m. on the dot. After saying her hello's to the Peacecraft couple, she immediately went to Relena's room. Now use to the routine, Heero went to his bedroom. He never used it, but kept it to keep Milliardo's temper in check.
Getting out his lap top, he set it up and did some research on the internet trying to see what he could do to help Relena. He so worked intensely, he almost didn't hear the vid-phone ringing.
Answering it, he wasn't surprised to see Duo on the other end. Normally cheerful, Duo looked anything but. Grim faced, Heero knew Duo's message wouldn't be pleasant.
"What's happened?" Heero asked.
"Bad news. Really bad news. The media has found out Relena's alive and well." Duo replied.
"What? How?"
"Intelligence said some asshole at Mariner's hospital. An intern in the psych ward sold the news to the press for some quick cash. Once I get off with you, I'm going to have a little talk with him." sneered Duo.
Heero slammed his fist hard against the table. "Save some for me. Damnit! This is the last thing she needs now. What about the records?" Heero asked.
"All records are now property of the Preventers and you know Une would rather shoot someone than give that info away."
"The doctors been taken care of on my end, so there are no worries there. Shit, this is awful news." Heero groaned, running his hand across his face.
Duo silently agreed. "I know. I just wanted to give you a heads up."
"Thanks, Duo." Heero said.
"Hey, what are friends for. Just take care of missy for me. Hilde and I send love. I'm out."
"Bye." Heero disconnected the line. He unclenched his fist and cursed.
Having no time to spare, Heero went to find Milliardo and Noin so they could prepare for the worse.
***********
Relena finished telling Dr. Grimes her dream and anxiously awaited her reaction.
"Relena, you have many friends who have taken lives? Do you consider yourself better than them because you say you did it out of protection?" Dr. Grimes questioned.
"What? No! I've never thought that." Relena said, clenching and unclenching her hands.
"They killed out of necessity because of the war. You murdered a man because you are evil." Dr. Grimes said casually, writing down something on her note pad.
No! I'm not evil. I'm not!" Relena pleaded with the psychiatrist to understand.
"You're evil! Evil! Murderer" Dr. Grimes yelled at her. She jumped out of her seat and started chanting it giddily over and over again.
"I"m not!"
Dr. Grimes sat nervously, as Relena toss her head back and forth of the bed. Her suggestion of hypnosis wasn't working out like she'd hoped. Watching Relena, Dr. Grimes knew whatever the girl was picturing in her mind was frightening her.
She was about to take Relena out of her hypnotic suggestion when the bedroom door slammed open. Walking in like an angry God, Heero first locked his eyes on Relena's writhing figure before looking at the doctor.
"What the hell have you done to her?" He went over and climbed on the bed to pull Relena in his arms.
"She's under hypnosis. It's part of the therapy." Dr. Grimes stammered under his glare.
"I'm not evil. He hurt me, he's the one who's evil." Relena moaned, tears leaking from the corner of her closed eyes.
"Take her out of it now!" Heero snapped, holding on tight when she tried to pull away. Noin and Milliardo soon came running in the room hearing all the noise. They were shocked to see Relena screaming while Heero held her down.
Dr. Grimes hurriedly yelled Relena's safety word to bring her out of her suggestion. She breathed a sigh of relief when the girl stopped thrashing around and went limp.
Relena opened her eyes a few seconds later and looked bewildered. Looking puzzled, she turned her eyes to Heero's reassuring ones.
"Heero?"
He sighed in relief as he leaned his head against hers. He pulled away and stroked her hair as he glared at her doctor. Getting up from the bed, he walked over to the psychiatrist and roughly grabbed her arms. Dragging her down the hall so Relena couldn't over hear, he took her into his bedroom.
"Young man, I-" Dr. Grimes protested.
Interrupting her, Heero tried to control his temper. "I don't know anything about psychiatry, but I do know incompetence when I see it. If you ever pull another stunt like that again, you won't like the results. Relena's mental health is your responsibility and if you screw her up, your screwed. This isn't a threat but a promise. Now get the hell out of here and seriously rethink your approach."
In all her years, Dr. Grimes had dealt with scary patients, but something about this young man frightened her. She nodded and quickly fled.
Heero took a few moments to calm down before going to check on Relena. He was surprised to see her smiling and talking to Noin and Milliardo like nothing was wrong. From her puzzled reaction from before, she obviously didn't remember the good doctor's technique and for that he was grateful.
She smiled when he walked into the room, making his heart beat loudly in his ears. He didn't care who he had to hurt to protect her. She was his only priority and he'd make sure she knew that.
Okay, how do ya like them apples? Thanks for all the support. I honestly don't know long this series will be. I guess until I'm satisfied or reviewers demand my head. Come back next chapter for more angst and the first consensual lemon scene. Bye!
