Age 14: Punishment and Escape
" I warned you about this! How DARE you disobey me-!!" Gouki backhanded Freezia across the face angrily, dark eyes glowing with fire.
" Your just mad because I got to him first. First come first serve." The slightly younger man glared at the other-not backing down-even though the other had literally beaten him as soon as he heard. He had a broken rib and his left arm was paralyzed from the force when he was slammed into the wall. Freezia spat out blood; wiping his lip.
" He is MY property. Do NOT-TOUCH HIM WITH MY PERMISSION!" Gouki voice rose dangerously with every word-Freezia didn't doubt people on the other side of the fortress could hear him.
" Too bad. I have no problem with doing it again; You can't stop me." The lilac-haired man stood, looking him in the eye.
Gouki backhanded him again in response. " I can. I will easily snap your neck, Freezia. Don't forget who your master is." He growled, turning away and walking out of the room.
Freezia stood there, shaking. " Damn him." He wiped his mouth again-lip cut and bleeding steadily. He brushes off his clothes, walking out the door as well and down the hall-climbing the marble staircase to the next floor. He spotted Kameron at the end of the hall-standing as still as a stone statue-he was on gaurd duty.
" You, Go take care of your friend. He's in my chamber. Wash him up and put some clothes on him. Now." He barked-Kameron hastened to obey.
Kameron quickly entered Freezia's room-stopping quickly upon seeing the sight. Kurama was curled up on the bed-crying softly-bloodstained sheet around him.
" Oh, Kurama..." Kameron rushed over-pulling him into a hug. " He did this to you, didn't he?" He whispered against his soft red hair-tears coming to his eyes.
Kurama sniffled- bloodshot eyes looking at his friend; nodding silently through his tears. Kameron scooped him up-blanket and all-and carried him to the connected bathroom; setting him on the edge of the tub and turns on the water. Kurama whimpered at the pain that shot through his body-trying to move but he had no energy at all. " O-ow.." He whimpered weakly.
Kameron turned to him, sadness in his eyes along with worry. " I'm going to help clean you up, You'll feel alot better...I'm so sorry you had to go through with that..." He shook his head; sighing.
Kurama shook his head; giving him a weak smile. " N-not your fault.." He managed softly-his throat hoarse from before. He could hardly talk-even when he did it came out softer than a whisper. He kept the blanket around himself until the tub was filled-then removed it and slid slowly into the water, wincing clearly when the water came in contact with his body. It hurt like hell against his ass, and marks on his skin, he felt like they were on fire. He finally managed to sit all the way in-slowly adjusting. Kurama closed his eyes; relaxing some now.
The vampire looked at his friend, smiling some. " I'll be right back..I'm going to get you clothes and replace the sheets, okay? Will you be fine alone?"
The red-head nodded, giving him a grateful smile. After he left, he slowly reached over and grabbed the shampoo, washing his hair-the gentle massage on his head soothed him. He dunked his head underwater, getting all the shampoo out and grabs the soap and washcloth from the side. Kurama slowly began to wash everywhere-being careful when it came to his injuries. There was only one place left: The boy closed his eyes and washed his lower regions quickly; then turning on the mist of the shower and rinsed off, mumbling the entire time: " Dirty...Touched myself...Dirty..so dirty..must get clean..." In his head the mist of the shower was washing away the dirt, but it could not clense a tainted soul.

Kameron had just finished making the bed; eyes flashing with uncontrolled anger at what happened to his friend. He had enough: Tonight he was carrying out his plan. He was getting them both out of here.
He silently walked back into the bathroom-seeing the last of the pink water drain away-Kurama standing in the center of the floor with a black towel around him. The other boy looked up at him-shaking slightly still. " Your back."
" I am. Come on...I have clothes for you in here.." He escorted Kurama into the bedroom-sitting him on the bed. He felt the younger boy tense- Kameron knew why.
" It's okay, Kurama..Relax..He's not here...It's just me; Kameron; Your friend.." He gave him the clothes.
Kurama nodded; dressing quickly and silently hugs Kameron. " Thank you.." He whispers.
" Your welcome..Your my friend-I'll do anything to protect you and keep you safe.." Kameron replied-hugging him.
He took Kurama into his own room-it was smaller; plainer-but still a decent room. He let Kurama lay down on the bed and smiled, watching him drift asleep. He looked silently out the window; praying that what he was going to do wasn't going to cost them their lives.
~~~~**Time Lapsed-Now: 11:00 p.m**~~~~
Kameron returned from guard duty early, coming into his room to see Kurama looking back at him-obviously knowing he was coming in.
" Sleep well? You slept for quite some time...Are you feeling any better?" He asked his friend-sitting on the bed next to him.
" I-I'm better..." Kurama nodded, smiling partly.
" That's good to hear, I was getting worried..." Kameron returned the smile with a relieved one of his own.
" I'm okay..Well-As okay as I can be..." The red-head said quietly, shrugging. He looked at Kameron; noticing a nervous look on his face. " What is it?"
" We're getting out of here, Kurama. Tonight. Right now. " Kameron stated firmly.
" W-what-?!" Kurama's eyes widened. " Y-your kidding-! That's practically suicide!"
" We have to risk it...we can't stay-I won't have them continuing to do this..." The vampire sighed.
" What if we get caught-?! We'll be in so much trouble! They might even-...even-...-do the same to you as they did to me-!" He whimpered.
" It doesn't matter-As long as I can get you out of here safely.." Kameron silenced him. He watched Kurama's emerald green eyes sadden. " Hey-..Don't worry-we'll be fine...I promise..." He gave Kurama a small smile; the smile growing when Kurama returned it.
He helped Kurama to his feet. " Anything you want to bring with you?" He asked.
Kurama shook his head. "I don't have anything."
Kameron nodded, taking him by the arm and silently walking out into the hall.
" How're we going to get out?"
" Time for shift changes is in a couple minutes-there is two minutes exactly between the time it takes one gaurd to leave and one to take it's place...We need to time it just right to get past them all." He gave Kurama a grim look.
The duo made their way silently down the stairs, passing the gaurds within the walls with no problem. Kameron led them to the kitchens-sneaking into the back.
" There's a small exit back here-I found it awhile ago...For fire purposes..." Kameron said; getting on his knees and shuffling aside bags and boxes and cloth-a small, dusty window hidden halfway down the wall-it was padlocked.
" Now what?" Kurama said. " Where's the key?"
Kameron's hand trailed below the window; wedging out a loose stone-hidden inside was a small silver key. " Right here." He grins.
He unlocked the window and with some effort; pushed it open-it was just big enough for them to get through. Kameron got out first-dropping easily to the ground. He helped Kurama out; thankful they were on the lowest level and didn't have very far to fall.
" I can fly us out of here-But I need to be away from here to do this...It won't work within his territory.." He crept along the wall; looking around the corner. The gaurd was walking in the opposite direction; footsteps not far behind them on the other side alerted him of the other gaurd coming up. He grabbed Kurama's hand and ran as fast as he could to the closest oak tree. They hid behind it-no one running after them assured them they were not seen. Kameron turned- and ran into someone infront of him.
" Kura'-What-?" Looking up, he saw it wasn't Kurama; but Rue-Freezia's counterpart. He was the host body Freezia inhabited-and lately was just as bad as the demon within him was.
Rue smirked. " Well-Well..Runaways..." He looked from Kameron to Kurama-the dark grin spreading even more.
