Author's Note: First, I want to thank my reviewers, you guys are the best! I hope that you keep on telling me what you like along with suggestions on how it could be better. Please be sure to read all warnings, as I don't want to be flamed because there is Yaoi (male/male relationships), rape, and very OOC characters and you don't want to read that kind of stuff. For fun, I want to ask those of you who are reviewing to try and guess who Alexi ends up with by the end of this tale. I will give you two hints: 1). The person/ demon is male and 2). It's not obvious (well, nothing is obvious as of yet, but still, give it a try). Can you guess who it is? Any way, here's the next installment:

Part Four: The Cold Truth is Revealed

Alexi comes to on the couch wrapped in a thick blanket. He slowly sits up. "Well, there you are. We were wondering when you'd wake up," Yusuke says with no small amount of scorn. WHAP! The dark-haired youth staggers forward from the force of the blow. When he turns around to face the person, it also gives Alexi a view of his attacker.

"Honestly, Yusuke, you need to be a bit nicer," the female states looking at him sternly.

"Keiko," Yusuke grumbles rubbing his head.

"I mean it. You may be a powerful demon but I am still your girlfriend and you WILL mind me!" Keiko retorts. That definitely amuses the occupants of the room and Yusuke flushes from anger and embarrassment. "I apologize for him. He's impolite." Alexi smiles slightly at that.

"So what was that fainting spell about?" Yusuke ask after he recovers. Alexi goes silent and starts toying with the blanket. "Come on, are you prone to this sort of thing?" Alexi shakes his head indicating that he was not.

"Alexi," Genka says getting his attention, "it was him wasn't it."

"Yes," he answers quietly.

"What are you talking about, Genkai?" Yusuke demands. Alexi finds himself pulling the blankets closer to himself wonder how Genkai was going to respond.

"That is not my place to tell you, Yusuke," she answers.

"Something is going on here and I want to know what it is," he retorts. Alexi knows that he won't let up until he knows the truth.

"Sakyo isn't dead," he redhead tells him. Yusuke whirls to face him.

"What?" he demands.

"Sakyo isn't dead," he repeats and sees the disbelief in Yusuke's brown eyes, "I'm being honest."

"How would you know?" the teen sneers.

"He's rather tall with long black hair, emotionlessly cold blue eyes with a scar down his right eye," Alexi tells him. The looks of disbelief and shock from the others prove it is they guy that they are talking about. "He kidnapped me four years ago."

"How is that possible when he is dead?" Kurama asks faintly. Alexi goes to offer an answer when his attention is drawn to a rather guilty looking Koenma.

"You knew?" he whispers as a harsh realization dawns on him, "You knew he was alive?"

"Well, he became a demon and disappeared from Limbo," Koenma responds fidgeting slightly, "We hadn't had any reports of him causing problems." Alexi cannot hide his expression of disbelief.

"Why didn't you DO something?" he demands. Koenma looks away. "I don't believe this! I don't fucking believe this! YOU'RE the one who is responsible for the last four years of my life?" His gray eyes show his pain and he stands up sharply. "Thank you so very much. I appreciated being stuck with that psychopathic freak!" Without another word, or waiting for a response, he walks out of the room. His thoughts are chaotic and in utter disarray making it almost impossible for him to sort them out. He wanders out back and finds a small pond, which he sits beside before staring into its glassy surface. So it had been known that Sakyo was alive, yet nothing had been done to prevent any innocents from being injured. Because of that lack of foresight he, Alexi, had taken the fall. His gray eyes narrow as anger fills him. Koenma had given no reason as to why Sakyo hadn't been dealt with and Alexi has a suspicion that there was never going to be one.

"They know that there is something you aren't saying," Genkai says approaching him, "They will discover the truth sooner or later, Alexi."

"Later works for me," Alexi answers as he continues to stare into the water.

"I know you don't want them to know but unfortunately, they eventually will."

"No, no, they won't."

"How can you say that? Most of the ones inside happen to be very clever and intuitive."

"I am not going to be around long enough for them to find out." Alexi knows that is the wrong thing to say but he cannot help it. His pain cut too deep and the knowledge that no one close to him would ever listen made him think he was better off dead.

"Alexi, why are you just giving up?"

"My parents are homophobic. They are pretending that I was never even kidnapped let alone raped by an older man. No one will even listen to me and my classmates think I am a freak."

"I am sorry, Alexi. You shouldn't have to face this on your own."

"It doesn't really matter. I'm not important in the scheme of things. You should go back inside and make sure there isn't a blood bath on the horizon."

"I am not going to leave you alone out here wile you think that lowly of yourself."

"You should."

"Perhaps, but I am well-known for ignoring the things I should do. Come on, sitting out here is only going to make things worse." Alexi follows Genkai back inside knowing instinctively that nothing could be gained by arguing with her. He sees everyone looking at him and stares at the ground.

"What was with that outburst, Alexi?" Koenma asks.

"Umm…well," he murmurs trying to find a suitable explanation that doesn't involve revealing he had been raped, but he comes up with nothing, which forces him to make the hardest decision of the past two days. "He kidnapped me four years ago…"

"You mentioned that," Yusuke states interrupting him. Alexi closes his eyes to gather his thoughts, which isn't easy when he thinks about what he is about to reveal. He takes a deep breath, steels himself, and reopens his eyes.

"I spent the past four years being humiliated and raped by him," he forces out as he looks back up at Yusuke…
