The room was still as Nagisa cried, only Karma knew what to do.  The others were still scared of Nagisa, though they knew they shouldn't have been.  It wasn't his fault his mother was a psychopathic maniac,  but they couldn't help it.

Eventually,  Nagisa's crying had ceased and the boy only looked at the ground, Karma rubbing soothing circles on his back.

"I'm sorry..." That was all the small boy could choke out with his incredibly hoarse voice.  The redhead stroked the shorter boy's hair as he moved his gaze to look at the others.

"So," he started,  eyes filled to the brim with fire.  Not to scare the others,  but to prepare to scare Ms. Shiota. "Do you know of any reason that Ms. Shiota would want to hide Nagisa? Anything?" All of them glanced at one another, anxious.

Karma took that as a sign and smirked, finally getting what he wanted, an answer. It didn't matter if he liked it or not, if it's the answer he was expecting, or if it wasn't the answer to everything. He just needed something, anything!

Isogai stepped up, sighing heavily and facing the two boys in front of him. "Ms. Shiota told us things that... that should never be said as a threat, and especially never done to a person. Nagisa," he turned to face the smaller boy with guilt filled eyes. "She told all of us what she did to you."

And with that, Karm was beyond pissed. Oh but Nagisa, Nagisa was fuming. They knew what she was doing to him all those years and never said anything? How could they!? The blue haired boy stared at each and every one of them with a glare that seemed like fangs dripping with poison. He was about ready to break something, or someone. He wanted them to feel the same pain that he had to bear throughout his whole life.

Suddenly, Nagisa rose from the couch, springing to life as the human embodiment of a cobra and lunging himself at Isogai, letting out a roar filled with pure rage. He wrapped his limbs around the taller boy, tackling him to the ground and holding him in a chokehold. Though, this was no ordinary chokehold. Nagisa held his prey in a position that was nearly impossible for secret agents trained by the government to be freed from, much less a junior high school student. His entire being was oozing with seemingly demonic energy, eyes expressing only anger and sadness.

The smaller boy held Isogai like that until the boy fainted from loss of oxygen. Everyone watched as the blunette released his chokehold and slouched his shoulders, crying and muttering inaudibly to himself. All was silent as the broken boy tried and failed to put himself back together.
