The two emotion packed fists collided. Kai felt himself become paralyzed by the shock of the collide. Unfortunately, it was not the same for his opponent, and Kai was pushed onto the ground by a kick.

"So you've been paralyzed by the pain eh?" He snorted. "Might as well end it here." He punched Kai rapidly. Moments later Kai was heavily bruised, but he was still conscious, and attempting to get up.

"Ah, so you're still alive? You're pretty tough to kill." Yasashii remarked.

"Damn.. You..." Kai struggled to his feet, panting. Yasashii snorted.

"Kai!" Aichi was limping towards him.

"Aichi... Don't get involved." Kai breathed, clenching his chest. Aichi shook his head.

"Don't. I'll buy you some time to recover." Aichi said, and he punched Kai in the stomach. Kai felt himself fall

"Aichi... What are you..." Kai laid there, as he watched Aichi attempt to jump the man. He was stopped short by a fist landing heavily on his stomach. Aichi put his arms up to attempt to recover, but he missed the ground due to the force of gravity, and was crashing on the floor. Yasashii ran after him, and Kai could see his legs bunching up for a kick.

"Aichi!" Kai screeched. Aichi heard him, but was already well aware of the kick, and dodged it, delivering a kick of his own a second later. Yasashii was momentarily distracted, sitting on the floor panting very heavily.

"Now! Kai!" Aichi yelled, gesturing at the falling man.

"Yeah!" Kai kicked Yasashii in the stomach, interrupting his attempts for calming his lungs and sending him flying, unmoving.

"It's finally over." Aichi murmured, tears of relief streaming down his eyes.

"Yeah." Kai grunted, getting up. "Let's get outta here, Aichi." He turned around to walk to the door, where the man was laying.

"Toshiki!" Kai felt a hand pulling on him leg and he fell flat on the floor.

"I will make you pay for this defeat!" Yasashii snarled, veins popping. "You will die the moment I get on my feet again!"

"Not if we can help it." Said a mysterious voice. Kai looked up to see it was an officer, brutally beaten but with a strong and determined look. "Yasashii Sendou. It's about time we've could you." Yasashii grumbled angrily.

"I will kill this boy if it's the last thing I do!" He screeched, pulling Kai towards him.

"No. You will not." The officer said as more officers came to grab Yasashii.

"This will not be the last of me! TOSHIKI!" He screamed, thrashing and kicking and attempting to charge at Kai, but to no avail.

Once Yasashii was dragged out of the room, the officer helped them up. "Sorry we took such a long time." He muttered. "Our attempts to get into this room was stopped by Yasashii Sendou's gang." He sighed. "Never had such a beating in my life, but you guys look far beyond that point."

"Yeah." Kai and Aichi said in unison. The officer grabbed a camera.

"We found your friends trapped in a closet." He continued. "Also, may I take a picture of you two to help investigate?" When they nodded their approval, a camera light flashed, and Aichi was trying to blink away colored spots.

It was a month since the fights with Aichi's cruel and brutal father. Yasashii Sendou. Kai was sitting on a bench by the pond.

"Kai?" Kai jumped at the voice and turned around. It was Aichi. Kai had to admit, it looked like Aichi was caught in a roll of toilet paper.

"You can go out of the hospital too?" Kai inquired.

"Yeah. I recover fast. Must be because my body is prepared for brutal beatings, since my dad kept beating up me when I was little." Aichi sat on the bench next to him, letting out a sigh. Silently, they sat together, staring at the fish peacefully resting in the pond.

Moments later, Aichi's mother, Shizuka Sendou, walked to them.

"Hello, Mrs. Sendou." Kai greeted

"Hello." She said absently. She just stood there, next to the bench, and they all stared at the pond.

This is... Awkward? Kai thought. "Mrs. Sendou, why did you marry such a man in the first place?"

The mother flinched, then sighed. "You deserve to hear the truth. Aichi's father used to be so gentle and kind. Later, his friend dissed him, and he was a very sensitive man. He took comments seriously, and because of that comment his friend gave him, he... Became a very.. Very cruel man." Kai and Aichi noticed that she was crying, face red and tears flowing down like a waterfall. "But.. I never knew that he would.. He would be such a cruel man. At the time, Aichi was 6, and Emi was just born. He treated you both so badly. Of course, Emi being so delicate, I had to protect her, so he took everything out on you instead. There was nothing I could do.." She sniffled. She put her hands on her face. Her next words were brely audible.

"I'm sorry."

"Mom..." Aichi hugged her, and she sobbed loudly on his shoulder. Kai felt like bursting into tears as well, but he held it in.

"It's okay mom. It's fine. He's gone now. I'm fine." Aichi murmured softly, as the blob on his shirt grew wider and wider.

Thirty minutes later the crying had finally ceased. His mother got up.

"I'm sorry. I.. I just have to go home and think about my life." She ran off, leaving a drenched Aichi and a very emotional Kai behind.

"Aichi." He breathed, pulling him closer. "Thank you for covering me."

"Anytime, Kai." Aichi replied, his tone as gentle as a feather. "I will always be here for you."

I love you.
