“Welcome, Aster. I do hope you
enjoy your new accommodations.”
Aster Phoenix glared up at his captor
with hard cobalt-blue eyes. Chains encircled his wrists.
“What pathetic crusade is this?”
Zane frowned before slapping the
teenage boy across the face. “Stop acting so confident. You’re trapped, Aster.
You’re mine.”
“Are you going to kill me?” Aster’s
tone was conversational.
“Worse.” Zane’s features twisted in a
villainous fashion. “I’m going to make you feel pain as payback for the pain
you caused me.”
“What pain?” Aster rubbed his red
cheek.
Zane’s eyes narrowed into slits. “The
pain of…defeat.”
All of a sudden, Aster burst out
laughing—the most illogical thing to do in this situation.
“Because you lost?”
“One of the very few losses I’ve ever
suffered. Get used to that word. Suffer.” With this declaration, Zane viciously
ripped open Aster’s fine silk jacket. The silver buttons violently struck the
wall.
“Zane, you’re deranged!”
“No. I’m sadistic.”
Aster was dumbfounded. Was this
really Zane Truesdale? He’d heard he was ruthless, but…this was too much.
In vain, Aster played his only trump
card. Figuratively speaking. “Someone will come looking for me. I’m not just
anyone you can just knock out and cart away.”
Zane smirked. “We must do something about that ego,
Aster.” Almost as an afterthought, Zane’s hands swept down Aster’s chest.
“You’re enjoying this a little too
much, Zane.” Aster was more nervous than he was willing to admit.
In answer, the former Obelisk Blue
grinned. Darkly. “I am not straight, Aster. What do you think of that, hmm?”
Aster Phoenix was speechless.
“Why do you think I don’t have a
girlfriend?” he purred. “It’s not simply because I’m choosy.”
Aster was thunderstruck. “You’re…”
Zane chuckled cruelly. “Don’t worry.
I’m not interested in your body. Well, not in that sense anyway. This is
vengeance. Nothing more, nothing less.”
Vengeance? What constitutes as that?”
“Pain. I’m going to torture you, Aster. I hope you’re ready.
Arrogant guys like you need to be put in your places.”
There was no measure of control Aster
could gain from the situation. All he could do was sit and wait.
Don’t
struggle. Don’t show fear…
Evilly, Zane turned away into the
darkness with the intention of beginning his “vengeance.”
Aster tried to keep things light.
“Can you at least tell me where we are?”
Zane was now stalking towards him
with a bucket in his hand. “Can’t you feel the movement?”
Aster was confused. “The movement?”
“We’re on a freighter, idiot. My freighter. No one even knows
you’re down here. No one who cares anyway.”
“And…what’s in the bucket?” Aster was
buying time, but not enough of it.
“You’ll find out,” Zane assured him.
“It’s a rather common substance.”
“Water?” Aster was guessing.
Zane indulged him with a wicked
smile. “Yes. Boiling hot saltwater. The salt will add to the effect.”
“What effect?” he mused out loud.
Surely,
he’s not going to…
“Are you going to give me a bath?”
Zane pulled out a long spoon out of
the bucket. “You won’t be a smart-ass much longer.”
Without warning, without mercy, Zane
dribbled the water onto his bare chest. A string of curious reactions then
occurred. First, Aster found that he simply could not breathe when the
blistering water made contact with his vulnerable flesh. The abrupt agony was
that intense. Secondly, the burning reached an eye-tearing crescendo as it
streamed all the way down.
“Like that? How’s that for a victory
shower?” Zane demanded with a nefarious glint in his murky blue-green eyes.
“N-n-ot bad,” Aster stuttered. “But,
the water’s quality needs improvement.”
“I’ll use spring water next time,”
Zane commented dryly.
Next
time?
The wave of pain that ensued later
momentarily rid Aster of all thought. Zane was at it again.
This
is insane! How am I going to survive through this?
This
isn’t happening.
But, it was. In reality, Zane was
quite efficient. He allowed the tiniest amounts of boiling water to mark his
skin. A trickle there. A drop here.
“I say, Aster. This is the quietest
I’ve ever seen you.”
Drop.
Hiss.
Aster groaned loudly before his
retort. “Forgive me, Zane, but I have a lot on my mind right now.”
An expression of pure hatred and
annoyance flashed across Zane’s face before he sent his fist hurtling into
Aster’s jaw. One second later, the former student was on his feet.
“I’m going to leave for a few hours,
Aster. This isn’t going as well as I expected.”
The darkness was Aster’s sole
companion when his tormentor had prematurely left. Reeling from the agonizing
experience, he let his head simply drop onto the wall behind him.
I’m
bleeding.
Indeed, a scarlet trail was currently
rushing out of the corner of his mouth.
Zane
has a hell of a punch.
For the first time in his life in a
while, Aster Phoenix was completely alone. No friends, no mentors, and not even
parasitic fawning fans.
Why
isn’t anyone looking for me yet?
Zane couldn’t keep it up for long.
Sooner or later, he would be found. In fact, Aster would bet a sizeable sum
that his face was already gracing headlines. A professional duelist couldn’t
just disappear. Unfortunately, the search could take days. And in a couple of
days…
Is
this…my destiny?
Balling his hands into fists, Aster
forced himself to sit up straight. However, it would be useless to actually
attempt breaking the chains.
When
did Zane become so demented?
The hours ticked by as Aster rested
his wounds. The burns, although painful, would heal. So long as he remained
alive, which he still was.
There’s
nothing I can’t handle.
Creak…
The unmistakable sound of a steel
door. Zane was returning. All too soon, his tall, slim figure sauntered into
view.
“How’s my little hero doing?”
“Better than ever. I even took a
nap,” he lied in a barely convincing tone.
“Really? Well, sleep time is over,
Mr. Phoenix.”
Aster shivered instinctively when he
caught a glimpse of something metal glinting in his torturer’s hand…
