Chapter 219: Apprehended

Name:The Earth After Rebirth Author:


"The two blokes who've been behind us since we left the Kismet Inc. building?" He had noticed too, but he didn't think much of it.

He was no stranger to being chased. He thought it strange than instead of panicking, his heart was very calm.

"Let's get ourselves captured." Felix suggested.

"Yes." Kiro agreed. Raul was about to say something but Kiro cut him off. "Walk to the other side of the street, to ensure that their targets are really the two of us. You can follow meticulously behind them and figure where they're keeping us."

Raul didn't argue. He ran to the other side of the street, carried by the cold winter wind that blew through the now almost empty streets. Sure enough they didn't follow him.

Kiro doubted they would just take them in broad daylight. It was winter, but it was still a little past 4pm, so the sun was still out.

Felix lead them to an alleyway, they pretended to be taking a leak there. They were chatting nonsense, speaking loudly, to ensure they masked their footsteps, so when they were grabbed, it'd be an honest surprise for them.

They didn't want to tip them off about anything. They had to keep believing they were in control.

Darkness swallowed both of them as bags adorned their heads. The black bags had a gas inside of them, so they were knocked out cold before they could do anything.

Kiro's consciousness lingered in the dark for a while. He was unaware whether they were being transported by foot or vehicle. To him, it felt like, he was back in his bed. Comfortably sleeping after a very long and busy day.

That was until shock jolted him awake, he stopped a scream from escaping his lips. He didn't want them to think whatever they were doing was effective. When he opened his eyes, his vision was still in darkness. A blindfold was over his eyes.

"Now that you're both awake, I need you to answer a few of my questions. Why are you investigating the Sanctum and what do you know about it?" The voice asked with a sinister tone.

"Who are you?" Kiro asked, the voice was a little familiar to him, so he wanted to keep him talking as long as possible.

He stopped right in front of Kiro. He was about to make an incision then giggling could be heard from the room, it was coming from none other than Felix.

"What are you laughing at, freak?" The man had heard it up to his neck with these two.

Felix didn't bother to answer him as he continued to laugh. The man walked up to him next, and made an incision without saying anything. He was the quiet one after all, maybe torturing this one would make the talkative one, talk.

"Felix, are you..."

Kiro's question was cut off by another laughter from Felix. He couldn't help himself but he was enjoying this. It wasn't any thing sexual, he just felt really relaxed when he was being hurt.

He realised how weird that was, if he considered the rest of the humans. But different wasn't always bad. Though he hated showing anyone this side of him, but here he was unable to stop himself from doing it with Kiro there.

'He's enjoying this? Pain is the worst thing, how does he do it!' Kiro thought to himself, he was impressed if anything.

"You two are a strange pair, I've never quite met someone like him." He said pointing his knife at Felix. "I wonder how many cuts would it take to completely break him." He mocked.

He unwrapped his bandages, so that he could have more skin to cut. What met him however made him drop his knife, he fell to the ground and couldn't find his voice.

"Wh-what, are you a monster?"

He'd never seen anything quite like this before, it took him by surprise. It dawned on him that, whatever he did, there was no way this kid would divulge information this way, he had to think of something else.

However, on the other hand. Kiro had pinpointed his voice at last. He couldn't believe his luck, this was the perfect time to take care of them once and for all.

"You're him aren't you? Phinix, leader of the crow mafia gang?" He said with the most sadistic smile, as if the man in front of him were a mouse caught in a trap.
