Chapter Four- A Painful Escape

 

 

 

The dream. She'd had that same dream again. The recollection of the night that had happened years ago. Five to be exact, if she remembered it right. A dream of the haunting face that plagues her mind, day and night. And no, it is not the face of the man who attacked her, but rather, the face of the man who holds her captive. The man who was kind to her and brutally cruel at the same time. The one who cared for her, though she knew not why?

 

`Why did he care?' `Why was he so angry that night?' `And why did Kai…look so sad?'

 

*Flashback*

 

The look on Lord Makoto's face was one she'd never seen before, or ever wanted to see again. He had a look on his face that made your blood run cold. It would make the mightiest of men run away in fear. She was only thankful that that look was not intended for her.

 

He was glaring at Yokoshima with his piercing red eyes. And she was sure, if a look could kill, Yokoshima would have been dead and buried five minutes ago. But he wasn't dead. Not yet. He was currently being held by two of Makoto's strongest guards. And they weren't being all to gentle with the little creep either. One of his arms was already broken from the sheer strength of the guard's iron hand grip. And his shoulder was dislocated from earlier when they yanked him to his feet.

 

But she didn't feel sorry for him. She could tell he didn't regret what he'd tried to do. That much she could tell because he wouldn't stop staring at her…and…smiling at her. Even now, same thing. Staring. Smiling. She couldn't look at him. So she focused all her attention on her lord.

 

He had punched, smacked, clawed, kicked, and pretty much ripped the face off of Yokoshima in his mind. But none of those would be a fitting punishment for the crime he'd almost committed. No. He deserved something much, much more excruciatingly painful then that. But what to do?

 

He finally decided on the perfect punishment and ordered his guards to take the scum to the basement.

 

POP!

 

Ok, two shoulders dislocated. They dragged him out of the room by his now dead, limp arms and down the hall. She was just glad he was out of the room so she could breathe. Now the only people left were Lord Makoto, Kai, a doctor, and herself.

 

This room. They were still in the same room. Why couldn't they leave and go to another one? She desperately wanted to get out of here.

 

And then as if to answer her silent prayers, Kai told her they were moving her to a room across the hall.

 

Once they all settled into that room, she felt better. She sat there with the doctor. He was trying to comfort her in what ever way he could, but nothing was getting through. Her mind was a blank slate. She couldn't focus on anything. All she could do was remember.

 

`What would have happened if he hadn't shown up?' `That man.' `That man saved me.' `Who was he?' `Why did he come?' `How did he know I was in danger?' `And why save me anyway? I'm only a servant.' Her mind was a blur. It was like trying to put a puzzle together with twenty pieces missing. Impossible.

 

Makoto and Kai were talking in low voices over in the corner. She couldn't make out what they were saying, but she did notice something. Kai kept looking at her. Looking at her with eyes that held the deepest sorrow. Like he was blaming himself for what almost happened. Like he would never forgive himself.

 

*End of Flashback*

 

That's what was on her mind now. That look. His face. `Why?'

 

Yokoshima had been tortured to death in the dungeons. She listened to his screams all night long. They had allowed her to sleep near the doctor, incase she needed anything. She heard his screams of agony and Makoto's screams of rage.

 

Once again this bothered her. `Why me?' `He didn't care about any of the other maids who had been violated by that lustful monster.' `So why did he get so mad when it almost happened to me?' `What makes me so special?'

 

She looked up at the sky. Not a cloud in sight. It was a beautiful summer day. The sun sprayed its gorgeous rays down brightly on her face and she loved the feeling of warmth it gave her. She was in the garden, surrounded by all the wonderful flowers. She loved it here. It was her haven.

 

She had been given no chores today. Instead she was just simply told to enjoy the day and to do as she pleased. It wasn't really odd to her. Not anymore. At first she couldn't believe it! She thought she was loosing her mind! But now, she was used to it. Used to the special treatment he gave her. Used to the strange kindness he showed her. Used to all the abnormal things that had happened.

 

Take for instance, her room. She had been given a room. And a nice one at that. She had a nice bed with silk sheets. A large balcony that over looked the garden she loved so much. A bathroom connected to her room. And beautifully carved wood furniture for her to store her ten new, beautiful, silk kimonos in. It was almost like she wasn't a slave anymore. Almost.

 

She hardly ever had to do chores and she was treated like a princess, but she was a slave. She wasn't allowed to leave. She belonged to them. She was their property, their entertainment. And she hated it. She longed to be free.

 

A strong wind blew across her beautiful face as she let her mind wander, once again not paying any mind to her surroundings. She simply let herself drift away. Away from this place. Escaping into an unknown world where only she existed. It was the only freedom she knew, and she savored every minute of it.

 

“Beautiful day, isn't it?” said a cold voice. She jumped at the intrusion and nearly fell of the bench she was sitting on.

 

That voice. That voice had just yanked her from her world of peace, and she couldn't help hate whoever had done such a thing. Her eyes drifted up with malice to the face that owned that despicable voice.

 

She felt a little better about her current mood when she realized just who it was she was looking at. It was Lord Makoto himself come to take away the only freedom she had. At least he deserved to be hated.

 

He stared at her, smirking that he had just scared her out of her wits. She stared right back. Hating him with all her heart. But those eyes. Those piercing red eyes. It was too much to bear, staring into them like she was. She felt as if they were burning into her very soul. She could no longer stand it and had no choice, but to submit to him.

 

She bowed her head as his smirk got bigger. She knew he loved it when she gave in to him. And she was no longer in a fighting mood, so might as well just give him what he wanted.

 

“And to what do I owe this unexpected visit my lord?” she asked sincerely. I mean, she really didn't know why he had come out here. Except to torture her, of course.

 

He lifted her chin with one of his clawed fingers and looked down at her “Oh, I simply came out here to admire the beauty.” His eyes were glancing up and down her body.

 

“So beautiful,” he spoke in a soft, deep tone.

 

Rin was becoming a little nervous. She didn't like the way he was looking at her. He could smell her fear and he ravished it. It was intoxicating, but he wouldn't lose control.

 

He chuckled deep in his throat. “Why are you so nervous, Rin?” “Are you afraid of me?” he asked her. He leaned his face in lower. Their noses inches apart. He could feel her erratic breathing on his face. Their eyes met…..She was shaking……Trembling in fear of what he might do……She had no idea how powerful she was making him feel.

 

“Yes”, she whispered. She looked down as he smiled. “I am afraid of you,” she admitted in sorrow to the flowers she held dear.

 

`What is he doing?' `Is this some kind of sick game?' Her mind was racing. She didn't know what he was up to, but she didn't like it.

 

He straightened up and turned around. “You don't have to be afraid of me, Rin.” he told her. “I will not lay a hand on you.”

 

`Yet.' he thought as he walked off and out of sight.

 

She stared after him and watched him leave. Her legs gave out and she collapsed. They had been putting up a fighting struggle the minute he touched her. And now that he was gone, they no longer had enough energy to support her.

 

`What was the point of that?' `Does he just enjoy screwing with me?'

 

She inhaled a deep, sweet breath then got to her feet. She needed to see Kai. Now.

 

 

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^* ^*^*^*^*^

 

 

He silently watched her from his hidden position. He watched her collapse to the ground and was pleased to see just how much power he truly held over her. He knew he could make her do anything and even though she might not like it, she never once complained.

 

He liked her that way, submissive and obedient. Not to mention she was a very rare beauty. She put most demonesses to shame. Her hair, her face, her body, everything was perfect.

 

She made his blood boil when she was near him. And the scent of her fear only increased his heated desire. He had to have her. Too long he'd wanted to touch, too long he'd wanted to taste, too long he'd wanted to claim her as his own. And very soon, he would.

 

Yes, very soon, she was going to be his mate.

 

 

*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^* ^*^*^*^*^

 

 

“Kai!” . . . “Kai!” . . . `Where is he?' She'd knocked and yelled twice without any answer. `He's always in his room around this time.' She really needed to speak to him. She pounded her fists against the door and called his name in a desperate attempt to be heard. “Kai!” “I really need to talk to you!” “It's really important!” “It's about Makoto, please Kai, I need you!” . . . Silence. . . She didn't know what else to do. She let out a frustrated sigh and slumped against the door, letting gravity pull her down to the cement floor.

 

`Fine. I'll just wait here until he comes back.' She crossed her arms and legs defiantly, refusing to move from that spot until he returned. She played over in her head the cold, hard lecture she was gonna lay into him. `Oh yeah, he was in for it.' `I mean, he could've at least left a note.'

 

She sat there fuming a little longer until a strange noise caught her attention. It sounded like something was moving inside the room. She slowly looked behind her at the door. She heard the noise again and this time she stood up.

 

“Hello!” she called out to the door. Nothing. “Hey, is someone in there!?” “Answer me!” She heard something fall over and hurried footsteps. “Who's in there!?” “Kai!” She pounded on the door again. “Hello!”

 

“Rin.” She whipped around and gasped.

 

“Kai.” She looked at the door, then back at him. “I. . . I thought. . . It sounded like. . . Kai, I think someone's in your room.”

 

He gave her a weird look that seemed like a mix between panic and nonchalance. “Rin, there's no one in that room.” The way he said it was like he was demanding her to believe him. “I locked the door myself when I left,” he tried to reassure her.

 

“But. . . I heard . . . something.” She gave him her please-believe-me look. He stared at her for a moment and then went and pressed his ear to the door. After a moment he said, “I don't hear anything.” He looked over to her. She looked exasperated. “Well I know I heard something.” Though she was starting to doubt it herself.

 

He considered her for a moment. “Well whatever it was it's not there anymore, so no need to worry.” He smiled at her and she smiled back. She decided to change the subject.

 

“Where were you?” “I really needed to talk to you and you weren't here.” A look of guilt replaced his smile. “I was taking care of some things. It was nothing really.” “What did you need?”

 

She wondered why he was being so vague, but decided not to press the matter. Makoto was top priority at the moment. And now that she had Kai here, nothing was going to stop her from getting the answers she needed.

 

She grabbed Kai's hand and looked up into his eyes. They softened as they rested upon her worried face. “Kai, we need to talk . . . about Makoto.” He understood immediately and gave her a small nod before motioning for her to follow.

 

He led her down a few hallways before ducking into one of the rooms. They walked over to a nearby table and sat down across from each other. “Alright, what is it you want to know?”

 

She didn't know where to begin. So she just started asking things that had been bothering her.

 

“Kai,” she was speaking in a quiet voice. “Kai, why does he treat me different?” “Different . . . then the other girls I mean.”

 

He didn't say anything. “Kai?” She looked up at him. He refused to look at her and he refused to answer. He was looking down at the table, pain evident in his eyes. There was a look of sadness and guilt on his face and he was sitting very, very still.

 

He was hiding something and she wanted to know what. Her eyes narrowed. “Kai, tell me what you know.” Her voice was growing stronger.

 

He slowly looked up and regarded her seriously. He took a deep breath. “I can not answer your question Rin because. . . I do not know the answer myself.”

 

“Liar!” She was standing up now and screaming in his face. “I know you know something now tell me!” “Tell me what you know!” “What are you hiding!?” “Answer me, now!”

 

“Enough!” He was standing now too and looking at her with fierce eyes that demanded she stop.

 

“Sit down Rin. Now!” he barked dangerously.

 

She complied immediately, a little frightened of the way he was acting. She stared at him, waiting for him to speak. She didn't have to wait long.

 

“Rin, listen to me. I've told you all I can and that's all you need to know. Now stop treating me like I've betrayed you.” Why couldn't she understand? He wasn't allowed to speak of what she asked.

 

She wouldn't look at him, how could she? “What is with you?” her voice was strained. “Why have you been acting so weird lately?” She started crying and through tearful sobs her voice cracked, “what did I do?” Hot tears spilled down her cheeks and fell onto her shaking hands. She was trembling, she couldn't help it. She had come here seeking comfort from a friend, a father. And instead she got a lecture from a man she barely knew. He was a complete stranger to her. She didn't know him anymore.

 

The Kai she knew would've never lashed out at her like that. He would have been honest; he would've tried to help. He would've told her what he knew. But not this man, he did none of those things.

 

He looked over at her trembling form and feelings of guilt washed over him in crashing waves. He collapsed to his seat and put his head in his hands, groaning.

 

He felt like such a coward. He hurt her, how could he? She was like a daughter to him. He was supposed to be protecting her and instead he was hurting her. He was giving her up to her worst nightmare. Into the hands of a monster and still, he did nothing. She came to him with her troubles, having complete faith in him to help her . . . and he let her down. He was leaving her there to deal with it on her own. He was being cruel and it broke his heart. The sound of her cries and the smell of her tears were making him feel pathetic, weak, and worthless. Why wouldn't he do anything? Why wouldn't he help her?

 

He took a deep breath. Because he couldn't, there was nothing he could do. Either cooperate or be killed. He knew that. But it made him feel no better.

 

He looked up at her. She was shaking and her cries ended in broken sobs from trying to stop. She was trying to control herself, trying to control her emotions, but she was having a hard time. She felt like she couldn't breathe. So she kept taking deep breaths to try and calm down.

 

She looked up right into his eyes. “I'm sorry,” he said. She could tell he was sincere, for his eyes didn't lie. She stood up and walked over to him and then she collapsed into his arms. This hug is what she needed. It was comforting and warming and it made her feel so much better.

 

He held her tightly, never wanting to let go. He rocked her gently, trying to soothe her. Her eyes were closed and she looked drained. He knew she needed to rest.

 

He picked her up and carried her out of the room. He was walking down the hall when he heard a disturbing voice echo through it. “And what do you think you're doing?” Kai stopped walking and looked down at the sleeping girl in his arms. He turned around and stood his ground. Makoto was walking towards him with a curious expression on his face.

 

Kai cleared his throat and spoke clearly, “My Lord, I found Rin sleeping in one of the rooms as I walked by and I am taking her back to her room.” Makoto looked down at the sleeping Rin and smiled. “She looks so peaceful. Fine, let her sleep. She'll need her rest for tonight.”

 

Kai's grip on Rin tightened and his body became rigid, an act which did not go unnoticed. “Come now, Kai. You didn't think you could keep her forever? Now I've let you pretend she's your daughter long enough, but tonight…” his eyes narrowed and his voice went to a deadly whisper, “she's mine.”

 

He straightened up and looked Kai in the eye. “Give her to me.” It was an order, one not to be disobeyed. Kai hesitated a moment, then reluctantly handed her over to his lord. Makoto took her and held her gently so as not to wake her. He gave Kai a dismissive nod and then walked off with his prize.

 

Kai stood where he was. `How could I do that? How could I just hand her over like that?' He started walking back to his room. He knew he'd had no choice, but he still felt guilty. He remembered though, that he still had a plan to get her out of here. And that plan was in his room.

 

Makoto carried Rin to his private chambers and laid her down on the bed. He stood up and looked at her, noticing how perfectly wonderful she looked there. Soon this bed would be hers. He called for one of the servants and told her to get Rin ready for him. He stole one last glance at his to be mate and then walked out the door.

 

(WARNING! FOR MATURE READERS ONLY! NC-17 ALSO THIS SCENE IS PRETTY GRAPHIC AND SADISTIC SO IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT DON'T READ)

 

Rin opened her eyes to a dim, flickering light. She sat up quickly when she realized she wasn't in her room. She looked around at the many lit candles surrounding her and wondered not only where she was, but how she got here.

 

She was on a large bed with crimson silk sheets and the room was lavishly furnished with crimson walls. It created a very beautiful, yet eerie glow.

 

She looked down and noticed she wasn't wearing what she had on earlier. She was in a very light, yet beautiful blood red kimono and her hair was clean and curly. Someone had bathed and changed her. `But why?'

 

“Oh, so you're finally awake,” spoke a deep voice. Her head snapped up to the door. Lord Makoto was standing there in only his hakama pants. His face was casual, as if nothing was out of the ordinary.

 

Rin just froze and looked away. “My Lord, what are you doing?” she whispered.

 

Makoto just smiled as the scent of her fear drifted towards him and he heard her timid voice. `Oh yes. This, I will enjoy.' His eyes became fierce, like a hunter who's cornered their prey. He slowly started stalking towards her.

 

Rin couldn't move, couldn't breathe. `This is just like last time. Only now I'm afraid no one will help me. Kai wouldn't even help me and he knew! Of course, it all makes sense now; this is what he couldn't tell me… If Kai couldn't help me…no one can.'

 

Makoto reached the bed and stroked her cheek. “So beautiful,” he whispered. She snapped her head away, but he seized her chin and roughly snapped her head right back. “Do not fight me…or I will make this more painful then you can possibly imagine.”

 

He picked her up and threw her on her back before completely covering her body with his. He kissed her hungrily and explored every inch of her mouth with his tongue.

 

Rin just laid there and took it. She knew she couldn't fight back this time because it would only make things worse. So she stayed still and submitted to him.

 

Oh how he loved her like this! Quietly obeying and giving herself to him. He'd waited five years for this. And now he would finally have her. He trailed kisses down her jaw and over her neck. He licked at the junction of her neck and collar bone, reminding himself that that's where he wanted to mark her. He sat up and looked at her. She had a lost look in her eyes, like she wasn't really there. `Well time to bring her back to reality.'

 

He parted open her kimono and dipped down to suck on her breast while he caressed the other one with his hand.

 

Rin was in a trance like state. She didn't want to be here so she escaped into her mind. Back to her flowers, back to her peace, back to where she was free. Makoto was kissing and licking her neck. Part of her knew that, but part of her wasn't even there. It stopped for a moment and then…

 

She gasped. He was pleased with that reaction. And now that she was paying attention, he wanted more then a little gasp. He bit down on her nipple and pierced the flesh with his fangs. He pinched the other one in his claws and licked up the blood.

 

`What is he doing!? Why is he doing this!? What is the poi… ?' All her thoughts stopped as pain shot through her.

 

She cried out. It was a sweet sound. It made him want even more. He sat up. His eyes were glowing red with lust. He couldn't wait anymore. He had to have her now.

 

The look in his eyes made her want to run. They were gleaming with want. Want for her. But she couldn't run, she couldn't even move. Even as he tore off her kimono and admired her body. Even as he undid the ties to his hakama and kicked them off. All she could do was wait. Again.

 

He positioned himself between her legs. She thought back to when she was being attacked by Yokoshima.

 

*Flashback*

 

He savagely started ripping off her kimono, not caring that his claws were scratching her. She couldn't breath, she couldn't fight, she couldn't even scream. All she could do was cry and wait. He kicked off his pants and positioned himself between her thighs. `Please! Somebody help me!' She closed her eyes and held her breath………………..

 

But the pain never came. Instead, she heard screaming. It was him. He was screaming. But why? She opened her eyes. He was fighting someone and he was…losing. Whoever this stranger was, he was beating the crap out of Yokoshima. She crawled to the nearest wall and sat up against it. She brought her legs to her chest and hugged them. Her chin rested on her knees. She watched silently as Yokoshima's body stopped moving and fell limp to the floor.

 

*End of Flashback*

 

Where was he? Where was her guardian? Where was her savior her protector? `Where are you? Will you come?'

 

All time stopped as he tore through her innocence. She screamed in pain and Makoto silenced her with a greedy kiss. He was ruthless and gave her no time to adjust. Tears were streaming down her cheeks as he savagely thrusted in and out of her.

 

Her mind was screaming. She'd never known pain like this in her life. Not when she was hit, not when she was beaten, nothing compared to the torture she was being forced to endure.

 

He was loving every minute of this. `PLEASE SOMEONE MAKE IT STOP!' Her sweet tears and cries. `IT HURTS!' The taste and scent of her pain. `IT HURTS SO MUCH!'

It surrounded him. `KAI HELP ME!' It intoxicated him. `WHY ARE YOU LETTING HIM DO THIS TO ME!?' As he got closer to his peak he ran his claws down her body, staining them with her blood. `WHY DIDN'T YOU WARN ME!?' He bit and tore at her chest, wanting to cause as much pain as possible. `SOMEONE PLEASE STOP THIS!' Her screams echoed through the night and filled him with pure ecstasy.

 

`PLEASE JUST LET IT END!'

 

He collapsed on her, his energy spent, as he filled her with his seed.

 

He lay panting on her, trying to catch his breath. She lay crying beneath him, just thankful it was over. After a moment he pulled out and stood up. He dressed himself and walked to the door. He stopped when he reached it and turned around.

 

“The reason I haven't marked you yet is because I'm waiting till after the night's over. I want you pregnant so don't pass out on me. There's still a lot more to come tonight before I'm done with you.”

 

He smiled when her fear spiked and left the room leaving her naked, raw, and broken. Her body was shaking and being racked with sobs. `Why me?' `What did I do to deserve this?' `Do I have to go through this all night?' `I can't' `Please don't make me' `Please don't make me go through that again' `Someone save me!' `Save me from this monster!'

 

There was a light knock at the door, but she didn't hear it. Someone called “Rin.” But she didn't hear that either. Everything was a blur and all she could hear was the screaming of her own mind.

 

The door slowly opened and closed. Kai immediately ran to her side. Her legs and thighs were coated with blood. Her body was thick with sweat, blood and his disgusting scent. Her hair was matted and her face was wet with tears. `How could I let this happen?' `How could I have let her go through this?'

 

Well not anymore. It was why he came. He was getting her out of here. He didn't care if he lost his life because of it. He was getting her away from that monster. He would make sure that no one ever hurt his little girl again.

 

He wrapped her in the sheets and picked her up. He carried her out of the room and nodded to someone, then walked down the many hallways that led to his room. He carefully checked around every corner so as not to be caught.

 

When he reached his room the door opened and closed by itself to let them in. He walked the length of the room and laid her down. He left for a moment and returned with a bucket of water. He cleaned her off and dressed her in a new kimono, her favorite.

 

It was Lilac purple with white flowers. The obi matched it perfectly; it was white with lilac purple flowers. The contrast was very flattering.

 

Once she was clean he sat her in a chair. He was kneeling in front of her. “Rin.” “Rin, look at me.” She looked up with thankful eyes, but tearful ones. “Th…Th…Than…k…yo…you…K…K 230;Kai,” she said with some difficulty. Her crying was causing her to take short, rapid breaths.

 

He gave her a hug and tried to comfort her. “It…h…hurt…s…so…mu…much…K&# 8230;Kai!” she cried into his shoulder. His hold on her tightened and he told her how sorry he was, but that he would make everything right.

 

“Rin, I'm getting you out of here, forever.” Her crying ceased and she looked up at him with wide eyes. “How?” she whispered. He straightened up as she wiped her tears away.

 

“Rin, there is someone I'd like you to meet.” He motioned for someone to join them.

 

A figure walked out of the shadows and into the light.

 

Rin gasped. “You!” (Lol I seriously thought about ending it here, but I decided not to be cruel)

 

It was him! The man who had rescued her all those years ago. The one who had protected and saved her. It was her guardian!

 

“Rin, I would like to introduce you to my son, Ichigo.” She was speechless. Kai had a son. And an older son at that and she never knew. “Kai, why didn't you tell me about him?”

 

Kai sighed and looked sad. “Because Rin, we're not allowed to mate with servants of the house and I did. When she got pregnant, we kept it a secret and we've kept it a secret till now.”

 

She looked over at Ichigo. He was so handsome. No wonder he looked familiar, he looked like Kai. Except his eyes. Kai had dark brown hair and bright green eyes. Ichigo had dark, long brown hair in a pony tail with glowing purple eyes.

 

He was wearing a black haori with bright purple stars on it and matching hakama pants. His obi was purple and green. It suited him well. Just then she realized something.

 

“Kai.” “Was he in your room earlier?” “Is that what I heard?”

 

“Yes Rin,” Kai answered with a smile. “I'm sorry I lied, but I couldn't tell you yet.”

 

Well at least that made sense. But wait a minute, there was one more thing.

 

“Kai, how did you get into Makoto's private chambers to get me?” This part made no sense.

 

“Because, Rin,” Kai answered simply, “His personal servant, Kira, is my mate and Ichigo's mother.”

 

Ok now it made sense, of course. They have the same eyes. Kira was a beautiful bird demoness with short blue hair and glowing purple eyes. `That's who Kai nodded to when he carried me out of the room.' Everything made sense now.

 

“So how are we gonna escape?” she asked, eager to get going.

 

“Well,” he hesitated, “WE aren't escaping, just you and Ichigo.”

 

“What!” She ran to Kai and hugged him. “Why can't you come too?”

 

He sighed, “Because Rin, I'm getting old and besides my place is here, but you and Ichigo have a chance, I suggest you take it.”

 

“Of course I will,” she whispered.

 

“Then you must leave now, Makoto will be looking for you.” “I've supplied Ichigo with everything you'll need.” “He knows what to do.” “Now Go! Before they catch you!”

 

Ichigo came up and hugged Kai. “Goodbye father.” He let go and walked to the window, waiting to leave. Rin hugged Kai as hard as she could and thanked him for everything. “Will I ever see you again?” she asked.

 

“I hope so,” he sad sadly. She gave him a kiss on the cheek and whispered “Goodbye father,” in his ear and turned to face Ichigo.

 

“Hurry Rin, we must go,” he said as he held out his hand. She took it and together they leapt from the window and into the night.

 

They ran, not looking back. They were careful to avoid being seen and soon they were in the forest. But they kept running, leaving the castle and it's nightmares to vanish behind them. They flew like birds, birds that were finally let out of the cage. They were finally free.

A/N: Wow that was a long chapter! Lol. But I enjoyed writing it so I hope you guys enjoyed reading it. Things are gonna start getting interesting as Ichigo and Rin spend more time together. Esp. when they run into some old friends. Remember this is a Sess/Rin fic. Ciao for now. Review please!
