Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction ❯ Shattered Innocence ❯ More Fun Reactions all Around ( Chapter 5 )

Author's note: Well, I've had two people guess the identity of Alexi's lover so far and unfortunately neither one is correct. Alexi doesn't end up with either Yusuke or Kurama (sorry guys, I hope you keep reading anyway!) So, can anyone figure it out? I promise that it is going to be extremely surprising! Anyway, here's part five and I hope you keep reviewing!

Part Five: More Fun Reactions all Around

"You were what?" Yusuke asks with disbelief clearly written on his face. Alexi sighs.

"I was raped by him. Please, please don't make me say it again," he whispers hating himself for even revealing it to them. What was he thinking?

"Okay, this has definitely gotten way too strange. You're actually claiming that you were kidnapped and raped by Sakyo? Forgive me if I don't believe you…but I don't," Yusuke tells him. Alexi grits his teeth as his anger flares again.

"Why would I lie about something this humiliating?" he hisses looking at Yusuke, "I am NOT lying to you! I am so very sick and tired of people who either don't believe me, or pretend that it never happened. Open your fucking ears and listen to me, god damn you! Four years ago, I was kidnapped by a tall, black-haired man with a scar down his right eye. He told me his name was Sakyo. He RAPED me. Do I have to tell you in graphic detail what that entailed?" He sees Yusuke recoil at his tone but he doesn't care; he's too hurt and angry to be bothered with worrying about the brown-eyed youth's reaction.

"Yusuke, don't make this any worse for him. He's not lying to you so let it go. He's hurting and the lack of support from his parents is not helping him cope so don't make him any more upset and angry," Genkai cuts in. Yusuke just scowls and storms out of the room. Everyone else just stays silent. "Alexi, why don't I show you to a room?" Wordlessly, the redhead nods and follows her.

Genkai brings Alexi to a small room at the end of a hallway. "No one should bother you here," she tells him.

"Thank you," he says meaning fare more then as appreciation for the room. The soft smile she gives tells him that she understands the deeper meaning. Genkai then leaves him to his own thoughts. He walks over and sits on the small bed against the wall and puts his head in his hands. Why, oh why had he told them? Nothing good would come out of this that he was sure of. Soon, he lies back on the soft cotton sheets and stares up at the ceiling as his eyes become heavy. Soon, he drifts off to sleep and inevitably to remember.

~ "Alexi, I need you to go to the store and get a few things, all right?"

"Yeah, sure, mom," the twelve-year-old responds in a tone that revealed that he would rather not do it but didn't dare say no.

"Remember not to talk to strangers and be careful," the woman cautions. Alexi rolls his gray eyes.

"Mom, I'm twelve, not five. I know," he says before heading out the door. He had heard the same thing every time he went outside. Besides, what could possibly happen to him?

He arrives at the store located only two streets away from his house and heads inside. Without wasting time, he immediately goes about getting the items his mother needed. As he rounds an aisle, he accidentally walks right into a stranger. "Oh, excuse me," he says rather embarrassed. The man looks at him before smiling, though the smile doesn't reach his hard blue eyes.

"That's quite all right. I wasn't be3in too observant myself," the stranger says amiably. Even with the friendly tone, Alexi finds himself wanting to get as far away from the man as he can possibly get. There was something…evil about him.

"Well, I should be getting my things," Alexi says before starting to walk around the man. He doesn't get far before he is grabbed by his wrist and a piece of cold, sharp steel is placed against his throat. His gray eyes widen and he looks up at the man who is now smiling coldly.

"I don't think you're going anywhere, lovely," he says venomously. ~

"No!" Alexi cries out sitting up sharply. His gray eyes are wide and terrified. Shivering, he pulls the blankets closer to himself and struggles to calm down. Why hadn't he just kept walking and not apologized to the man? If he had then he wouldn't have been kidnapped.

A soft rap on the door jars him back to the present and he walks over before slowing opening it. "Genkai wanted me to fetch you for dinner if you're hungry," Kurama says softly from the hallway. Alexi nods and follows him down the hallway to the dining room. He sees Yusuke and the dark haired youth gives him a disgusted look which makes him look away quickly.

He eats silently without looking at anyone. He doesn't what to know what they think of him. Yusuke's disgusted expression was enough. He does, however, listen to the conversation between the others. Once more, Yusuke voices his dislike of Koenma's choice of allies and Oto takes offense rather quickly. It doesn't take much for an argument to break out between them. It quickly escalates into violence and Alexi flees the room scared to death. He takes refuge back in the room Genkai had lent him though he can still hear Oto and Yusuke yelling at each other. The temple shutters as another attack is launched. Alexi shivers and curls up on the floor wishing the two of them would stop soon.

A displacement of air is his only warning as a destructive blue-white stream of energy rips through his wall. Alexi lies flat and it passes through the other side of the room. He slowly sits up and stares at the gaping holes in each side in silent horror. His door is suddenly thrown open. "Alexi!" Kurama says racing to his side.

"Wh-what was that?" he whispers looking up at him.

"That was Yusuke being an idiot. Genkai is royally going to chew him out for that stunt," Kurama answers, "Were you hurt?"

"No, I managed to get low enough that it passed over me," Alexi assures him. Kurama shakes his head as he looks at the holes.

"Idiot. He needs to get himself together before he ends up dead," the green-eyed youth mutters.

"Yes, well, Yusuke has yet to forgive Toguro for what happened at the Dark Tournament," Genkai says from the doorway. She looks at Alexi. "I apologize. Things are not always so dangerous around here."

"I could have guessed that. Is he always that out of control?" Alexi inquires.

"Only when dealing with grudges he doesn't want to get rid of," Genkai responds. Alexi sighs softly and shakes his head. "Well, come on, we should get back to the living room." He nods and follows her out.

Upon arrival, he sees that both Yusuke and Oto are still in the room, though both are on opposite sides. "Yusuke, apologize to Alexi. You almost killed him with that stunt you pulled," Genkai says sharply. Yusuke looks at the redhead disdainfully and Alexi knows that he's irritated that he HADN'T killed him. Alexi only wonders why Yusuke would hate him when he had done nothing to wrong him.

"I don't see why I should have to apologize. I don't want Toguro, his flunkies, or some misplaced human slowing me down," Yusuke complains.

"Urameshi, I can understand you not wanting to work with me but to say that about another human, who might I add has done nothing to you, is ridiculous. Get over yourself," Oto tells him. Yusuke's eyes narrow and Alexi is worried that yet another fight is about to break out between them.

"Yusuke, may I remind you that I own this temple here in Demon World. You don't have a right to stay here," Genkai tells him. She has grown very tired of this argument with between them. The brown-eyed youth silently turns and stalks out. Genkai turns towards Koenma. "He's becoming less and less like the student I trained, and becoming more and more like a demon with no conscience. I am not too sure that his transformation was such a positive thing…not anymore. He's beginning to refuse my advice and he is no longer willing to see anyone else's view except his own. If this keeps up then I fear he may become our deadliest enemy."

"I have also feared that for some time now. I am only hoping that some how, Yusuke proves us wrong," the prince answers, "If not, I fear we may be in serious trouble…in fact, we may not live to see the end of everything if it comes down to it."

"Koenma, it won't come down to it," Kuwabara interjects.

"Kuwabara's right. If it begins, we WILL stop it," Kurama agrees.

"You could kill Yusuke?" Genkai asks.

"Yes," an unfamiliar voice responds, "If the fool decides to ignore common sense, he will die." Alexi looks at the speaker who is a rather short young man with spiky black hair and unnatural crimson eyes. A bandage covers his forehead and a sword is sheathed against his side.

"Well, Hiei, you finally came," Kurama says smiling slightly. The male nods curtly at him before looking at Alexi. The gray-eyed teen gets nervous.

"Hn, humans should be more cautious," he finally remarks. Alexi looks at him strangely.

"Don't mind Hiei, Alexi. He has yet to learn how to be civil," Kurama comments.

"Stupid fox, I was being civil," Hiei states, "You know how I could find my answers…"

"Yes, Hiei, I am well aware of that. I would hope that you would be polite enough NOT to do that to Alexi," Kurama responds.

"I don't feel the need to do that to him," the fire-demon says. This makes Kurama snicker but he doesn't say a word. Hiei scowls before walking out.

"He hasn't changed," Kuwabara remarks, "He's still the same arrogant fire-demon who refuses to admit he has a soft side."

"Most demons refuse to admit that," Genkai remarks looking towards Oto and his teammates.

"Genkai," the burly demon says warningly. She smiles slyly.

"It's true," she answers calmly. He scowls at her but says nothing. Alexi is really confused but he doesn't say a word. He curls up on one side of the couch and rests his head against the arm. He's tired though not ready to face the memories that would plague him while he sleeps. Unfortunately, his body is too exhausted and his eyes close

~ "Please, let me go," he begs as the stranger pushes him into the car.

"No," the man answers before turning on the child-lock and closing the door. He slips into the driver's seat and turns around to look at him. "What's your name, lovely?" Alexi just looks at him defiantly. "Oh come now, don't make this difficult."

"I am not going to tell you," Alexi whispers clenching his fists. The man merely laughs.

"Oh, I assure you, pretty one, you WILL tell me," he promises. Alexi doesn't like his tone of voice and tries to open the door to no avail. Why hadn't anyone noticed him being walked out of the store at gunpoint? People had to have noticed…right?

Questions run through his mind all mixed and jumbled. He begins to grow more and more fearful as the scenery becomes unfamiliar. The man was taking him away from his home! He had always heard that if a kidnapper took you from you home, you'd never return alive. He shivers and curls up miserably in the seat.

Hours later, the car pulls into a secluded parking lot in a virtual ghost town. He turns and looks at the man wondering if he was going to die now. "All right, lovely, no one should bother us here," his captor says looking at him with an expression that Alexi neither recognizes nor likes so he curls up tightly. This only seems to amuse his captor. The older man's blue eyes glitter strangely before he moves to the backseat with him. Alexi is too startled to move and finds his writes bound before he can react. A frightened whimper escapes him as he doesn't know what is going on or what the man has planned. Next, the man reaches down and pulls off his shoes before tossing them into the front seat. His shoes are shortly followed by his socks and inevitably, his blue jeans.

"Wh-what are you doing?" Alexi stammers as his captor tosses his jeans over the front seat leaving him only in his shirt and underwear. The man merely smiles before taking the waistband of his cotton underwear and slowly pulling it down. Alexi's struggles are futile as his wrists are tightly bound. Soon, his underwear joins his other articles of clothing and he flushes with shame at being seen mostly bared by a stranger. "Ahh, lovely," the man murmurs looking down at him, "You are beautiful." Alexi shivers and closes his legs tightly wishing he could pulls his shirt down and cover himself.

His captor then removes his own closes and Alexi becomes panicked. "N-no, please," he whispers without really knowing what he was scared of. His captor mere smirks before pinning him against the door. Alexi thrashes wilding trying to get away. "No, no," he cries out. The man merely pushes his slender hips up and with one vicious thrust impales his virgin body. ~

"NO!" Alexi screams jerking up. His breathing comes out fast and chocked.

"Alexi," Genkai says coming to his side. He pulls away and curls up tightly his eyes still wild and terrified. "Alexi, it's just me. Calm down, child, you're safe." He begins trembling and before he can stop himself, he starts crying helplessly and curls into a tight ball to try and forget. He feels embarrassed that he's falling apart like this. "Alexi, it's all right," Genkai murmurs, "It's normal to dream and relive it." Hearing Genkai's soft, almost grandmotherly voice calms him down enough to voice his thoughts.

"I don't get it, I just don't get it. It was a crowded store. How could someone NOT notice him with a knife to my throat? People are not THAT oblivious!" he says angrily.

"He's a demon, Alexi. He's become capable of making low-ranked demons and normal humans capable of seeing only what he wants them to," Koenma tells him.

"You know all this and yet you STILL have not gone after him?" Alexi demands, "What the hell are you waiting for?"

"If I could get Sakyo I would, Alexi," Koenma answers.

"What do you mean `if you could'?"

"Sakyo is the reason I've closed all the portals from the demon world to the other two. He's a high A-class demon moving towards S-class."

"What?" Kuwabara demands interrupting, "Do you mean to tell us that we're dealing with the highest class of demon?"

"By the time you face him…yes." …
