Under the mask (Captain Kaizo x Reader)

Chapter 5🌷(Savior)

Y/n laid on the cold floor as she spaced out, her body tired and numb, she couldn't even tell how many days she's been locked up in this cold cell.

She had been captured by a bunch of aliens that looked to be scientist who wanted not only Pocketbot powers but also to experiment on them for its capabilities, and whether they can be able to exert the limits that has been set further.

They had been trying to get her to spill where she hid it, but they could only wait for so long before they had resorted to brutal force, using any kind of torture method, at least they still had morals and all of her fingernails and toenails are still intact, but it would be soon enough before they find more worth one experimenting on her as compensation for not having Pocketbot on her.

When the pain came to be too much, she would occasionally slip in some painkiller pills that she had originally bought for her brother who was sick, she could only hope that he was feeling better without her, it would be worth all the sleepless nights and body numbing pain she went through the past few days.

Maybe she was especially tired today, because she couldn't quite hear, nor focus on the ruckus that was happening in the upper part of the ship, and because the sound proofing in this place is incredible.

It was when she heard the sound of the entrance to the dungeon did she perk up glancing at the new figure that stood in front of her cell, "Are you going to torture me again today?" she asked with a raspy voice, not having gotten any water since yesterday.

She watched as he unsheathed his sword, her eyes widening as she shuffled back to the bricked wall, the bricks poking at her back through her hoodie.

"Oh god! Is this how I die!?" She suddenly exclaimed, her fear suddenly giving her courage to find her voice as she looked up at him horrified, of course she would, he was dark and mysterious looking, he wore a mask damn it! And had a sword! What else would go through your mind if you faced someone like that?

He sliced the cell open, the bars making a loud sound as it fell on the floor, he offered a hand to her, "Come, let's go."

She looked up at him hopefully, gathering the courage and strength to stand up and walk to him, but stopped if it weren't for the abrupt tug of the chain that was wrapped around her ankle..

Oops...

She forgot she had that...

As if noticing her dilemma, he stepped closer into the cell and had sliced the chain that was attached to her ankle and to the wall, "Can you walk?" He asked her once she placed her hand on his, testing if she could she took one step closer to him, with shaky feet as she tried to walk properly.

"Here." He said, Y/n noticed his deep voice, must be because of the fact his face was covered by the mask, the man had her arm wrapped around his shoulder while he placed his hand on her waist and helped her get out of the cell, and up into the main floors of the place, for a ship, it was pretty big, and spacey...

Suddenly the alarm went off, which surprised the two, it could only mean that reinforcements were on its way and it would be a matter of time before the place would be swarmed with aliens, thinking fast, the masked man had placed his hand on her upper back and another under her knees as he picked her up bridal style, "Excuse me, miss.." he said as he proceeded to run out of the place.

Truthfully, Kaizo had already stormed the place and knocked out anyone he came in contact with, this was a rescue mission anyways, and these were one of the aliens that pursued the Pocketbot power sphera, so it was definitely killing two birds with one stone.

A door had slid open and came in aliens with a bunch of modernized guns as they proceeded to shoot at the two as they made a run out of the institution, well, at least Kaizo did, Y/n was clinging onto Kaizo for dear life with her arms wrapped around his shoulders.

Once they got to the chamber which was connecting his ship to theirs, Kaizo made sure that Y/n would put on a mask that would help her breathe while they ran through the intersection, "Here." he puts her down for a moment and helps her put on the mask, the device hissing as she breathed in some oxygen, he quickly carried her over his shoulder and ran through the intersection.

Once they were in the safety of his ship, he had her sit down and disconnected his ship and began to set a course back to Earth, when he turned back to Y/n she was struggling to take off the mask, he sighed and walked over to her.

"At this rate you're going to pull your face off along with the mask." He says, placing a hand on top of the mask and it hissed, he was able to take it off of her face, "Ah.."

"Thank you..I thought I was going to die.." Y/n gripped the fabric of her pants as she took a shaky breath, Kaizo only looked at her, which seemed to intimidate Y/n because of how intense the mask stared at her, so she cleared her throat awkwardly.

"I was briefed as to why a human like you is out here in space, but I would if you were to tell me yourself." Kaizo said, sitting down next to her, but still put some distance between the two of them.

The trip back to Earth seemed a bit uncomfortable, but Y/n tried to make small talk, only because she couldn't bare the quiet since she was always so used to how noisy her younger brother was, she also found herself sitting in silence as Kaizo dressed her wounds, "You're going to need to relieve your bruises once you get back, I'm just adding medicine to these."  He said as he gently dabbed some medicine on her arm, he had gotten a cold compress for her bruised stomach.

Over the course of having been kidnapped, Y/n was subjected to abuse, as they tried to get information from her, but she didn't budge and continued to stay silent.

"Thank you.." she said meekly, Kaizo raised an eyebrow at her, "Are you a broken record or something? Thanking me once is already enough."

"Yeah..but you saved me, if you tell me what your favorite pastry is I can bake it..!" Y/n said with a determined face, wanting to pay back her savior.

"It's fine, we won't meet again after this." Kaizo said, finishing applying medicine and closing the first aid kit, going to return it, 'Hopefully.' he thinks to himself as he places the first aid kit back to it's shelf.

He's hereeeee!! I am so excited that the story is progressing this way so far🥹 I can't wait for the slow burn to slow burn!!

Anyways, I hope this chapter has you guys fulfilled, I am literally in a roll with making chapters one after another.🌷
