Masaomi Kida x Jessica Minazai (Book 1)

Chapter 8 - Leader of the Yellow Scarves - Part 3

Third P.O.V.

It's been two days now since Jessica was kidnapped. Masaomi was on his way to abductors hideout.

Sunlight seeped through the small cracks of the cell. It had been raining last night and the sound of tapping as the water dripped onto the cold stone ground.

"Oi, girl, wake up," a rough and deep voice sounded through the cell. The lion girl groaned, eyes fluttering open.

"Masaomi?" She softly called. A growl was heard and the older man punched the iron bars. The younger teen jumped startled and pressed her back against the cold wall.

"Do I sound or look like that bastard?" His voice was low and full of resentment. Jessica shivered and looked up at the male. Her cheeks flushed a light pink. He had short brown hair and sharp blue eyes that pinned her to one place.

"N-no...sorry," Jess squeaked looking away. If she hasn't been looking at the floor the young girl would've seen an amused smile dance across the strangers face.

"What do you want with me?" Jess swallowed her fear and looked him dead in the eyes. He glared back at her. The amusement vanished in an instant.

"You don't need to know." He said as he openef the cell door and stepped inside. Jess flinched and crawled as far as she could from the man. He chuckled darkly, "Do you think I'm going to hurt you?"

"I don't know what you're going to do." An honest answer. A sigh was heard.

"I'm not going to hurt. That's not the plan. I just need you so I can strike fear and regret into that bastard boyfriend of yours."

Jessica frowned, "What do you want with Masaomi?"

Another chuckle and the tall man knelt down and unlocked her chains. She rubbed her wrists.

"He took everything from me." His eyes wavered but he blinked and it was gone. Jess tilted her head. Curious.

"What's your name?"

He looked at her. Wary. Why would she care what his name was. But he told her anyway. It was the way she looked at him. Those pure little eyes stared back at him.

"Kain."

Jess smiled softly. It was a bright smile. It lit up the dark cold walls. A pale pink blush appeared on his face.

"That's a nice name." Honest again.

"You're honesty will be the death of you." Kain sighed and stood up.

"Masaomi is waiting for me. So be a good girl and stay here." Her ears perked up and scrambled to her feet.

"Wait Masaomi is coming?" A wide smile spread across her face. Kain frowned slightly seeing how happy she was with Masaomi.

"Yes. We're going to have a chat. Then I'll come get you, okay?"

"But why can't I come with?" Jess panicked again.

"Because pretty girls shouldn't get involved in other people's messes."

"But if it's Masaomi's mess it's my mess too." The girl stated strongly. Kain growled and held the door open.

"Then hurry up," Jess scurried after him but stopped as he turned to her, "but try anything stupid and well, you'll just have to find out." Jessica swallowed hard and nodded. She wasn't too sure what he would do but she knew he wasn't lying.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Masaomi paced in the wide room. Waiting for Kain to come in. He heard the door open and Kain walked in with his hands in his pockets. His eyes widened as he saw his girlfriend appeared behind Kain.

"Jess!" He cried and went to ran towards her. Kain stood in front of her blocking her from Masaomi's view.

"Move Kain," Masaomi growled fists curling.

"Now now let's play nice...oh wait you never seem to." The tension in the room was high as the two males stared down at each other.

"Just tell me what you want and get this over with."

"I want you to gave back what you took from me." Kain said as if it was obvious. Masaomi was confused.

"What are you talking about?"

"Are you playing dumb or just plain stupid?" Kain spat, "I want my group back. You aren't their leader I am!" Kain pointed to himself. Masaomi went stiff. He understands now.

"Masaomi what is he talking about?" Jessica asked like the innocent girl she is.

"Nothing Jess." Masaomi brushed her off. Kain smirked slightly. Jess was slightly hurt by Masaomi.

"So you haven't told her your dirty little secret?"

"Shut up Kain!" Masaomi was becoming agitated.

"Well my curious kitty I shall tell you since Masaomi seems he doesn't want to," Kain turned to face Jess leaving his back wide open to Masaomi.

"He-..." A sickening slicing sound could be heard. Jess took a step back looking at Kain. Blood dripped out the corner of his mouth. He looked behind him.

"I said shut up." Masaomi had stabbed him in the back with his pocket knife. He pulled it out and Kain coughed spitting out blood. He fell to his knees.

"W-we have to stop the bleeding." Jessica stuttered going towards Kain.

"No we're leaving," Masaomi gripped her hand tightly and harshly pulled her out the room despite her cries of protest. Jessica watched as Kain fell onto the ground bleeding out.
