Chapter 1

"People. **** them. **** mankind. This is what killed me, or what I thought killed me; if they did why would I be taking this time to even be here, Doc."

"You have no choice, sir. Please, what's your name?"

"Like hell, I'm telling you! Just let me leave."

"I'm sorry, you can't. Just tell me your name sir."

"Why?"

"Well, because you came here so badly beat, you were explicitly telling them to let you dissipate. Now don't look so flummoxed."

"I don't remember shit! So of course I'm going to be flummoxed."

"You have no need to get an attitude, sir."

"Bitch, I was beat to an inch of my god damn life! While your sitting on your ***, asking for my name, when you, a police officer, have reports, while I'm in the hospital!"

Doc breaths heavily. "Calm down, sir. We still need your name."

"Madachi Yuzami, of the Shinagoki-Yumachi clan."

"That's a surprise." Doc says with a little laugh.

"Yeah, I'm the weakest mother fucker ever, and what clan are you from?"

"Well, I came from the Ditachi clan."

"And what's Doc short for?"

"Dochuzami."

"I can see why you choose to go by Doc." I say.

"If you think I'm going to let you leave just because you're 'nice' to me, fucking forget it." Doc says as he gets out of his leather arm chair. "I'll be taking my leave now, Madachi. You have to get some rest. I'll have an officer posted up outside."

"Haha! Fine I won't leave." I said sarcastically with a small smirk.

"It's not that, it's something about the reports we got." he said with a very disturbed facile expression.

"What is it about the people who put me in here?" I asked, more so to know if I need to climb out the damn window tonight.

"Their called, The Wolves. Their extremely difficult to find, let alone arrest. They run with this clan, not a family clan like our own clans, Madachi, more so an organization. They're called, Subsete Ni Shi."

"What kind of stupid name is, 'Death To All'?" I said wanting to laugh.

"I wouldn't laugh at them, they're three times deadlier than the Yakuza." Doc said with tension in his throat.

"Shit. Then you definitely need to let me leave!" I exclaimed, also thinking 'Yeah I'm totally getting my *** out of here through the window. **** this shit!'

"I can't do that and don't even try to get out the window, we booby trapped it." Doc said with a big grin.

"What does it do?" I ask as I have this sinking sensation in my gut.

"It sends fifty thousand volts through your body." Doc says with such clarity it seems like it's the apotheosis of his day.

"Agh!" I choke in shock.'Well shit! There goes my escape literally out the window!'

"Yes, now get some sleep. I'll be back tomorrow, Madachi." Doc said with a grin as he walked out and softly closing the door behind himself.

After that I turned to the television to see what's going on. I'm expecting something about me being on it since I only arrived here at the hospital three days ago, but nothing! It was like my beat down never even occurred. Which is strange because the news always gets stories about gang beat downs and things like that; however I'm afraid these police officers payed the news to keep quit, for the Wolves may be looking. As I continue to flip through the news I suddenly get drowsy and then the next thing I know.......

Black. That's all my eyes see and my ears hear nothing. No! That's not right because in the distance I hear, Click click click click. The steady pulse of experience dress shoes on the marble floor. My heart rate begins to speed up and grow with such pounding I can barely hear the the foot steps outside walking ever so closer to my room. 'Please, dear god don't let them hear my heart. I really don't want to die!'

Crack!

Thump!

"Puny human!" said a masculine voice muffled by the door.

"Shut the hell up you fucking muscle head! We need Madachi, he can't escape through the fucking window!" said a high pitched, scrawny voice also muffled by the door.

'****! I can't leave! What do I do, what do I do!'

The sound of the door is heard as it opens, sending an icy chill down my stiff spine. My eyes stiffly shut to hide the fact that I'm awake.

Click. Click.

'Why the hell is there only one set when I heard two voices?'

Click. Click.

'This doesn't make sense.'

Click. Click.

'Is the scrawny asswhole a cop? And why did the feet stop? I hear the opening of something with a zipper but it's a small one, not like a coat.'

Tink tink.

'What the hell it sounds like the guys hitting a needle tip! Shit that's not good, it could be any number of things! Poison, sleeping agents, this isn't good I still have my IV in!'

"Goodnight Madachi, see your *** in a few." said the masculine voice before I hit the deck.

"Waky waky!" came the high pitched voice as before. The faint but stinging sensation of him slapping me awake.

"Mmmhhhmmm"

"Oh, he finally responded!" Said the high pitched voice through the sleepy, fuzzy, swirling feeling in my head.

"That feeling you have, it may go away in a bit, but we need you to be like this for awhile while we do something, Madachi. Hey! Takeshita go get the tools."

"Got it boss." said Takeshita as he leaves through an unseen door to my right.

"Who are you guys, and what do you want with me?" I said still fuzzy and tired.

"Oh, come on! Didn't that cop, Doc, tell your \*\*\* about us?" said the pitchy voice.

"Wait. Your telling me that you and this, Takeshita, are the wolves?" I said trying desperately to look out my eyes to see anything, but with the bright white lights in my face burn my eyes and give me a migraine.

"Hahaha! The Doc did tell you then!" laughed the pitchy voice. Just then Takeshita comes back into the room shutting the door behind himself.

"Here you go, Derikagi." Said Takeshita setting something big and made of metal on a table not too far in front of me by the sound of it.

"Now Madachi, I would say that this wouldn't hurt at all, but that would be a lie! Hahahaha!" laughed Derikagi grabbing what ever was set on the table.

Bang! The one single gun shot rang out through my head and my surroundings.

Bang! The second was just like the first one but muffled by the ringing in my ears.

I'm expecting to be dead by now to feel something, anything to tell myself I'm dead. To my surprise, I receive nothing. No pain and no warm, sticky substance running down my body. I try looking out my eyes again only to see.... Red. It was all over. I began to scream but nothing came out, it was like those dreams where you are running from something and trying to yell out but all you hear is this strange noise. That's all I hear now. I'm seeing two lifeless bodies with blood spreading over the the floor. Each one with a single hole through there heads. I continue to cry out trying desperately to be heard, to call out to the cold world around me. That strange noise is all that's coming out and I want it to leave, to be my own scream again.

'Please, god let someone me!'

"Madachi! Madachi! Your ok, it's me! It's me, Doc!" the faint words just barely piercing into my head.

"What! How the hell d-did you get here!" I screamed trying to hear myself over the ringing still playing in my ears.

"I was able to follow you with a tracker on your sock. I told the officer to put it there as soon as he knew you feel asleep. I'm just glad I got to you before they were able to take your sacred gear." Doc says with heavy breathing as if he ran here instead of driving.

"W-what the actual \*\*\*\* is a sacred gear?" I ask, beginning to feel the sleep agent coming off and the ringing disappearing.

"You are the last one to possess a gear and that's what Subsete Ni Shi want. Every person the Wolves have killed have possessed a gear." Doc says still panting hard.

"How do you know all this? I..." taking a quick look at the blood that pools even closer to my feet. My words catching in my throat. "...mean I'm not this special person! Just get me out these fucking chains, Doc! I want to go home!" I screamed trying desperately to force my chains to break, knowing that they won't.

"Madachi, please stay still. I'll get you out and bring you to my house, there I'll tell you everything you want to know." Doc says calmly, calming me down as he fumbles through Derikagi's shirt pockets. Obviously grossed out he has to fumble through the pockets of a dead man. He finally gets a hold on some keys that jingle as he walks over to me in my chair. He tries the first three keys to be failures, however the fourth key is the lucky one to set me free.
