Chapter Text

Koko stares at Inupi, who is clearly seeping through anger as he spouted things about obsession Koko can't bring himself to care even a little. 

He smiles inside because all his plan is slowly falling to their right places. 

All his plan all throughout these years. 

He can even feel the throbbing excitement when he choke Inupi earlier, when he caress his cheek while spiting lies and the great satisfaction when Inupi's face registered pain whenever Koko mentioned his dead sister. 

How Inupi's face look like as he's compared to his dead sister. 

But he have to hurt his Inupi even though he doesn't want to. It's all part of the plan.

He nonchalantly stares at Mucho who puts a hand in his shoulders, indication that he will be the one fighting Inupi instead of him. 

This deceitful bastard. 

Who once dared hurt Inupi.

But Mucho is one of Kokonoi's chess pieces that will bring him to his queen. 

He stand by the sidelines, waiting for the right time. For the right timing to finally owned and announce to the world his possession. 

As soon as Inupi's nape became vulnerable and angled right for Koko to take advantage of, he takes out his syringe and prick the strawberry blonde's nape. 

Mucho and Inupi's face both expressed shock and confusion. 

As soon as Inupi's eyes starts to get droopy, Koko releases the smile he'd been waiting to make. 

For the effin' long time.

A sinister smile while he carried Inupi's paralyzed body in his arms, while Inupi's eyes didn't succeed from closing but a half lidded one that just stares at Koko. 

Koko can feel the stares directed his way as he kisses Inupi's sweaty and smooth scarred forehead, caressing his beautiful face Koko's been longing for and the beautiful scar of his beautiful boy. 

He can't help the victorious laugh he voice out to the world and everyone stops fighting just to look where that chilling and devilish laugh came from. 

Chifuyu, Baji and Mikey can't help glaring at the ravenette as he kept on laughing with Inupi in his arms. 

He surely did something because Inupi is not weak to let anyone carry him. 

As if sensing their eyes, Koko looks back at them with unrecognizable smirk and darkness in his eyes. 

Then he pulled out something from the inside of his Tenjiku coat, clicking noises can be heard loudly. 

He wrap metal cuffs around Inupi's wrist and ankles. Every individual is confused as to why would a member of Tenjiku cuffed a member of Toman and carried him in his arms. 

"You're all wondering right?" 

Koko's voice echoed around the place. 

No one made a sound, made a move.

They're all afraid that the person on Koko's arms will be drop dead if they do. 

Even Kisaki, who considered himself to be the most intelligent can't deduce what's happening and can't make a move.  

Izana, Kakucho and Mucho are quietly questioning Koko, but Koko ignored them as he keep caressing the unusually quiet Inupi who is clearly awake. 

"Thanks to all of you...or should I say 'Sorry because you're all too naive to be used as my stepping stone'? I don't know but I just want to say if it wasn't for all of you, I wouldn't be able to take my Inupi." 

My Inupi? 

What is Koko talking about? Isn't he madly in love with Inui's sister instead of his best friend?

"Koko? What are you talking about? Stepping stone?" 

Takemichi can't help but questioned Koko because he's extremely worried of Inupi. 

He's his friend and he will save him, even from Koko. 

"Takemichi you don't get it? Well, you're known to be gullible and weak." 

Chifuyu and Mikey can't help but sharpen their glare. 

They can't let Koko just insult their friend. 

And more to hurt the one in his arms.

Koko started walking as if he's just parading around the empty park, under the full moon, relaxed and happy. 

"How do I say this? Maybe I'll start with the arson committed on the Inui's household. I was the one who do that, hmm, well not directly because someone else get to do it before me but if they didn't I would've do it anyway." 

He smiled at everyone as if he's telling them a very corny story. 

A single whimper can be heard and it came from Inupi. 

Takemichi and Chifuyu can't help their jaw from tightening because they've heard about it and whenever that topic is brought up, sadness will pass through Inupi's pretty face before he tried to mask it with a smile. 

Baji saw the clenching on Chifuyu's fist.

"Just get to the point, Koko." 

Baji replied. 

He just recently known about Koko (particularly after getting discharged from the hospital) before he joined Tenjiku and he always have a feeling that there's something to Koko more than the eyes can see. 

"Fine. I want my Inupi's sister to die because whenever she's there, Inupi would left me. And then I get it, then Inupi started leaning on me! Do you know how that feels? It's the best!" 

Koko's happily narrating what he says as though he's a storyteller, a big smile in his lips.

Every revelation makes Takemichi's stomach ache. 

What the hell? 

"Shinichiro also died so Inupi have no one to be with, aside from me! His parents also have a fight which I cause because I told them that Inupi hates them and doesn't want their presence! And as soon as they ignored Inupi, my Inupi started depending on me about everything. Be it food, money and affection. He asks all of those to me before doing anything." 

Koko's undeniable happiness is visible and Mikey hates it. 

Hates that someone brought Shinichiro's death as if it's a step in making cookies. 

And hates that someone close to his older brother is being treated like now.

On the other side, Izana's fingers started clenching. 

Inupi knows his brother. No, Inupi is close to his brother. 

"Well, if Shinichiro hadn't died I would've killed him too because whenever I'm away, my Inupi would go to his stupid~ bike shop and bond with him. Thankfully, Kazutora do that for me. Then Taiju managed to beat up Inupi badly that I have to carry him home and help him with everything, do you know how much I want to devour him right then, whenever I help him dress himself? His body is pale all over and as pretty as his face." 

Koko's face starts to get more sinister the more the says what he's been doing behind the curtains, his voice also got louder as excitement is coming from him.

He caresses Inupi's crying face, gently as if he's holding a delicate chick, freshly hatched. 

"What the fuck are you talking about, you fucker?!"

Chifuyu can't help himself as tears also started falling from his face. 

Listening to everything makes him sick, he want to throw up somewhere. 

To throw up the insanity Koko's presenting to them.

And looking at Inupi's crying face makes him crazy with anger, as well as Takemichi, Draken, Baji, Mitsuya and especially Mikey. 

Anyone who was treated by Inupi with kindness and bluntness. 

"Then Mucho kidnapped me, my Inupi and Takemichi." 

His face turned full wrath as he says Mucho.

"Such a deceitful bastard, he even tried to hurt my precious Inupi and nu-uh~, no one can do that. But what he did makes everything more perfect! Because I know my Inupi so well that I can clearly tell he said he gave his life to Takemichi. And I can be his enemy, I can make him vulnerable without initially looking suspicious." 

Mucho is just quiet as his exposed to everyone.

Koko starts walking round and round again. As if he's a teacher explaining the presentation he played earlier, with occasional singsong voice.

Worried looks are send to Inupi's way who is still on the same position. 

"Oh, you're maybe wondering why my blunt baby is quiet. Well, Mucho you saw I inject something to Inupi right? It's a drug that can paralyzed his whole body. He can see, hear and feel but he can't speak nor move. Just like a porcelain doll. So even if I rape him right here, he can't do anything about it." 

Smiley's brow twitch, he glances at his baby brother who is currently gritting his teeth in anger, glaring eye's currently welling up with tears.

Koko's eyes again focuses on his baby who's still crying. 

"You know, even though I said everything became perfect because what Mucho did, I should've been able to take what's mine earlier before we joined Toman..." 

"I could've had my Seishu before he even met other people that he can depend on." 

The smile on Koko's face disappear as he stares at a particular blond. 

"But then, Taiju loses and Toman wins against us."

He started walking, with Inupi in his arms until he is in front of the glaring Takemichi  

"But then, Takemichi, you appeared. I thought Shinichiro died for good. You know, Inupi have no one except me. He won't talk about irrelevant people whenever he's with me. All his focus and attention are all on me." 

Takemichi can feel the anger directed to him and he reciprocate it. He's usually calm but right now, he wants to punch the shit out of Koko

Because Inupi didn't deserved to be treated like how Koko is treating him. 

As if he's an object Koko owned.

"Then kill me. You can do that right? Just for imprisoning Inupi with you." 

Koko laugh at Takemichi's response. 

For some reason, Takemichi seems braver than he is. 

"I really could. But I need you alive. Aside from Mikey and the other Toman members will come after me, I can use your life to hold down my Inupi for me. If I left you to live, I'm sure Inupi will willingly come with me." 

The thought of his life being used to trap someone, to trap Inupi makes Takemichi angrier.

Just like how mad he is whenever Hina died. When Naoto died, whenever Akkun dies. 

"Dont tell me you use Izana too." 

No one can call Izana so casually aside from Kakucho, Koko averted his eyes towards him.

"Oh, before I forget. Inupi respected you Izana, because you're Shinichiro's brother. You're s trong so Inupi dont want you to die so you have the same purpose as Takemichi. See? I told you all right? It's all thanks to you." 

Koko finally sits on the cold, cemented ground, cradling Inupi with him. 

"Then finally, finally, I have my Inupi completely. Without any reservations, without any plans behind his back. Without anyone getting in the way." 

"But he treated you as his best friend! Even though you use him as a replacement for his sister! He told me so!" 

Angry yelling can be heard as Chifuyu's voice spat those truths. 

Chifuyu can't help himself! 

He's not like Mikey who can temporarily stops himself from the emotions and he's not like Takemichi who can glare at Koko all throughout. 

He just can't contain his anger. 

"Oh? That? I never really treated him as a best friend. It's just him naively falling with my youre-my-best-friend-trap. And his sister, well she's pretty but Inupi is the most beautiful. She's just another chess piece that I used. And Inupi has been mine ever since we knew each other. When was it? Middle school? Grade school? Kindergarten? I don't know." 

Koko shrugs. 

"And I became obsessed with him ever since then, before I even learned about sex." 

"So you're saying, you only ever became obsessed with money because of him?" 

Kakucho waited for an answer. 

Koko is known to be a genius money-maker so it can't be that that is his reason. It's just not right. 

Nothing of this all is right. 

"Of course. If I became rich, then when Inupi became mine I can provide him with anything. If I have to buy him, I will."  

Disgust. That's what Kakucho feels right now. 

That's what they're all feeling right now. 

"You're crazy, Koko." 

Both Draken and Mikey finally speak. 

"Of course, I'm crazily, madly in love with my Inui Seishu." 

"That's not love Koko, that's just pure obsession." 

Mitsuya replied, he don't know when to start but he wants Koko to stop. 

"You use this battle to obtain what you want, you use all of us. You think we would let you take Inupi?" 

"Of course I know you won't, Mitsuya. I know Toman won't let me. But I know Inupi will." 

Mikey wants to crush Koko's bones. 

He's never that close to Inupi, but out of all the people Mikey met, Inupi is the one of those few who are trustworthy and true even if he's frank with his words. Because that's what makes him honest, he will tell you something that he noticed for your own good, even if it makes him the bad guy.

Inupi is kind. His pretty face also refreshed the surroundings. His gentleness and blunt attitude makes everything clear. 

His straightforward manner makes people around him decide rationally as well. 

Even if they're not close, he adored Inupi 

He even sometimes dislike Inupi because he's close to Takemichi. 

But he now knows that they're both the same, because Takemichi both reminded them of Shinichiro. 

"You think he will? Then why don't you ask him right now?" 

Mikey knows Inupi won't. 

He's rational and clever. 

"Sure. The effects of the drug should be wearing off right now." 

Koko miraculously put down Inupi on the ground, but he covered the floor with his Tenjiku uniform before placing Inupi down. 

Baji saw this and the scene could've been sweet if Koko didn't plan everything. It could've been a wholesome romance like the movies Chifuyu watched. 

But it's not. 

And it will never be.

It's all twisted, everything's twisted.

Inupi opened his lips and tried to make a sound, his fingers twitched as well as his numbing legs. 

He struggled through the cuffs. 

Baji want to break the cuffs off Inupi's wrist and ankles, then he'll carry him on his back as he run away from Koko.

"Koko..."

Inupi's voice croaked for not speaking that long.

Koko smiled innocently, just like an angel who descended from the Heavens and not the devilish demon he is earlier. 

Koko felt happy, because the first thing Inupi said is his name. 

Instead of anyone, it's his and Inupi's now looking at him helplessly. 

The satisfaction blooms inside his chest.

All his plan is worth it.

Inupi gulps and tried to speak again. 

"Takemichi help—hmpph!" 

Koko's angry shout erupt around as he push his palms against Inupi's lips as soon as he said those words. 

If he's happy earlier, he's trembling with so much wrath right now. 

Inupi struggled against Kokonoi's hold, Koko's other hand wrapping around the strawberry blonde's neck before he let go of his lips. 

Takemichi walks forward them out of impatience, even though Mikey told them to not make a reckless move, he can't just stand anymore. 

Inupi's coughing can be heard around he has gasp for breath but it was cut short again when Kokonoi's fingers around his pale neck, tightened. 

"Koko...I cant—breath..."

He's fully crying again as he gasp for air so Takemichi fastly walk toward them. To give help, to hug Inupi and comfort him. 

When a throbbing pain hit his toes. 

He looked down on his now blood soaked shoes, Koko just shot him. 

His anger avoids him from feeling the pain.

"Takemitchy!" "Michi!" "Takemichi—nghh." 

The last who called for his name is now looking at him, shaking his head as if telling him to retreat. 

Takemichi don't want to but as soon as he takes two steps forward, the choking Koko's giving Inupi intensified so he slowly and reluctantly step back. 

Koko moves his predatory eyes to everyone, looking at their angry faces, especially the ones in the front. Then he smiled before letting go of Inupi's now bruised neck. 

His neck is now adorning red and turning violet marks of fingertips.

He also turns his body as he tried to sit up (even though it's hard because of his cuffed ankles), coughing as he holds his own neck with his bound hands. 

His tear-stained face looks exhausted while Koko just continued on ruffling Inupi's hair and touching his face.

The coughing fit makes Chifuyu's heart ache, he wants to step forward and take on Koko. He wants to punch, kick and smash Koko. 

But Baji held back his hips, then shakes his head as he glare at Koko again. 

"So my baby, Inupi, will you come with me on your free will? Or we'll have to celebrate another funeral?" 

The word funeral made Inupi bites his lips, hardly. 

Koko's anger is still there and Inupi is feeding it more by not looking at him. 

"Look at me." 

He grip Inupi's jaw and made him face him, Inui tried to pry his hands away but the cuff around it was yank by Koko's other hand. 

"Fight him, Inupi! You're stronger than him!" 

An unknown voice can be heard, or rather a very familiar voice. 

Taiju Shiba. 

Koko chucked heartily. 

"He can't. The drug I injected him have wear off but for now, he's weak. So 90% of his strength is taken away from him. I told y'all right? He's now like a porcelain doll." 

Angry and Smiley both have dark faces, and the older of the twins's usual smile is missing.

Taiju smirked, he have always known that Koko have a lot of secrets but he just now know what are they. 

And he wants to beat him up too. 

Aside from a genius money-maker, he can also make drugs. 

"You'll go with me right? After all, it's only the two of us all along. And if you don't, a lot of people will die. Do you think you deserved to have this mighty people die for you?"  

Inupi's world narrowed down as he reminisce the pain he felt when his sister died and when the news of Shinichiro's death, who he considered his brother, reach him. 

The days where he would here Koko saying,  "I could've save Akane if not for you Inupi." while crying in front of his bathroom mirror while Inupi accidentally eavesdrop. 

The pain of being compared and the guilt of being saved by Koko. 

When Koko could've save the one he love.

He don't want that to happen again. 

To experience again.

Unknown to him, Koko recall that time too. 

When he heard Inupi's footstep as he wills himself to cry and say those words and smiling after he heard Inupi's muffled sobs.

Such a great acting resulted to great success. 

Sanzu can't help but be fascinated and disguted at the same time at Koko.

Emotional manipulation. 

Koko's preying Inupi's mind by using his emotions. 

And it's clearly working. Inupi's face is horrified and visibly in pain. 

Emotional pain. 

"If you don't, Takemichi will die, Mikey will die, Izana too." 

Inupi can't hear anything aside from Koko's dark voice. 

Chifuyu, Angry and Takemichi screams all they got but Inupi can't hear them anymore.

"He's being emotionally manipulated." 

A guy with black mask and white hair speak up. 

Inupi's been emotionally and mentally unstable ever since he lost his sister and Shinichiro. Ever since he lost his parents care and affection.

He's been vulnerable that it's easy, easy peasy for Koko to manipulate him like this. 

"He can't hear any of you. Aside from Koko. He can't even respond to him."  

Hearing those words, a lot of people felt horrible. 

So Inupi is just now someone who will follow whatever Koko says?

Who will be manipulate by someone he trust blindly? 

"Once they're all dead, I'll kill Baji, Chifuyu, Draken, Angry and Smiley, Mitsuya, all of them! Do you want that? They'll all be dead because of you! The same happened to Akane too, you want that?" 

Inupi's looks down, thinking of what to say. 

"Inupi, don't!" 

Chifuyu wants to lash on something. Other person calls out for the strawberry blonde's name but it's not use.

He won't even look at them. 

His only looking at Kokonoi Hajime.

"I'll come with you, Koko." 

No, no. Once Inupi made a decision he won't back down against it. He will see through it. 

And this is something he shouldn't choose! 

"Inupi! Think about it carefully!" 

Takemichi runs to Inupi, all the fear of dying was thrown out of the window as he shakes Inupi's slumped shoulders.

Koko just let him. 

Once Inupi made a decision, he won't change it. 

So he just nonchalantly point the gun beside Takemichi's head, which Kisaki just realize is stolen from him. 

As soon as Inupi saw this, he push Takemichi harshly, making the blonde stumble away from him then he put his palm against the gun. 

"Koko. I'll come with you so please put this down." 

His face is hopeful and helpless, making Koko smiled and he hugged him.

"I knew it, you love me too don't you?" 

He whispers which can still be heard by everyone. 

Inupi gulps and closes his eyes tightly then he opens them again.

"I-I do." 

Inupi's hear is beating so bad, he might be having palpitations or better heart attack. Koko might heard the hesitation on his stuttering. 

"Oh? You want us to get married? We're not yet 18." 

He misunderstood. 

And he understand wrong.

"No, Koko. I'm not—" 

"Sshh, we will, in time so that you'll be fully mine." 

"No Koko, I mean—" 

"Are you saying no to me?" 

Inupi trembles with fear. 

"I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean it." 

Koko kisses Inupi's lips, a peck so sweet it's sickening. 

Everyone should be disgusted by the display of homosexuality, but the pity for Inupi overcomes it.

"Oh, and someone called a police so we have to get out." 

A loud bang was heard as a Tenjiku member's body thud to the ground. Straight shot to the head. 

Inupi can't help the fear overwhelming him, the quivering on his body turns to trembles. 

He's terrified of Koko. 

Koko just killed a person.

Koko just shot someone just like how he slap a mosquito against his skin. 

"And you, you'll say you're the one who kill him. Or else I'll massacre your family." 

He then point his gun to a random Tenjiku member. 

"Say that you harbor a great anger towards him and that you know him. The better you act the safer your family will be and I may pull strings to get you out, get it?" 

He then gave the gun the the guy who is now crying and nodding. He also commands the Tenjiku member to caress the gun and grip their tightly. 

Inupi wants to throw up. 

This is not the Koko he knows. 

He wants him to stop. 

Stop his madness.

"Koko...why did you do that..." 

Before he can even finished his sentence another drug was injected to Inupi, this time he falls asleep instantly. 

"Stop injecting things to Inupi!" 

Draken angrily shouted to Koko. 

Koko glared at him. 

"Don't call him Inupi! He's mine!" 

Kokonoi runs away from them, kissing the sleeping Inupi's neck and face, then he look back at them with disgustingly victorious smirk.

"Before I also forgot. You're all invited on our wedding. It can also be a reunion and thank you party for all of your help." 

"And the last time you'll all see my Inupi outside, I can't have him escaping from me, you know. So I have to lock him inside and keep him safe." 

Keep him safe? He's in most danger when he's with you.  

The idea of Inupi being locked inside a room, alone and cuffed from his ankles and his wrists, not seeing the sunlight or bright moon, doesn't sit right to Mikey. 

Everything right now doesn't sit right to anyone who's rational. 

He then stick his tongue out to them, Inupi in his arms as he walks away. 

Koko's laugh echoed.

He looked down at his queen, sleeping beauty in his arms. 

Finally, Inupi is mine. 

Until death.   

Well, not his death but those who tried to take him away from me.
