They've found us

by Star_boy_galactic18

Summary:

When Akito and Shiho try to escape Ena and crash into Kohane's house, it's hell.

Chapter 1: Breaking and entering

Crash SLAM

   The two boys were shivering, one with glass digging into his skin, the other one wearing nothing but a binder and booty shorts. They lost the shirt somewhere in the chase. The door slammed behind them.

   Shiho pulled Akito behind the couch, they didn't know who's couch it was, all they knew was that they needed to hide, NOW. Akito winced as he fell behind the couch, the glass shards digging into his skin.

   They were safe, for now.
Until they heard footsteps going down the stairs.

   Kohane—bless her— with toothbrush in her mouth and wearing Kirby pajama pants, entered the living room, the first thing she saw? A half naked Shiho and Akito covered in cuts and blood. She let out a small yelp

"Wh-what are you two doing in my house-!? Are you okay? Y-you're bleeding!"

Akito said, deadpan, "We're on the run."

   Kohane practically jumped backwards. "Why!? Did you do something bad!?" She took her toothbrush out of her mouth and pointed it menacingly—as menacing as Kohane could look— at the injured couple.

And then,
A knock, A harder knock, the door splintered.
"YOU TWO CAN'T FUCKING HIDE FROM ME! GET OUT HERE! WE HAVE UNFINISHED BUSINESS!"

Kohane flinched.
Akito snarled.
Shiho latched onto Akito's non-injured arm.

Kohane slowly turned towards the boys.

"Please. Explain."

Chapter 2: The sister, enraged

Summary:

Ena has found them, things aren't looking good

The door busted open. Shiho pushed Akito and himself into the coat closet.

Ena's face was red and scrunched up, her clothes were slightly torn, and she stormed inside the house.

Kohane nearly dropped her toothbrush.

"Where. Is. He." Ena heaved.

"I-I don't know who you're talking about-"

"WHERE is my little brother and his mental little girlfriend!?" Ena stepped closer, invading Kohane's personal space.

Kohane tensed, her voice rising slightly as she starts to gain a bit of bravery. "Shiho's not a girl. A-and you can't call Akito your brother when you're acting like th-this."

Ena grabbed Kohane by the shoulders, making her yelp. "Yes she is! She's just pretending to be a boy! Now where is my brother!?"

Kohane's voice shook. "I...I don't have to tell you that."

Ena shoved Kohane into the wooden coffee table, which did have a pot of tea that she had brewed for bedtime. It was still hot and spilled all over Kohane, making her let out a scream as Ena tore down the house looking for Akito and Shiho.

In the closet, Shiho was trying not to cry, but having a panic attack as he heard Kohane's scream and caught the scent of burning flesh. It made Akito tense, as he remembered Shiho's traumatic history with burns, and how the burning flesh smell could trigger him badly. He  whispered to Shiho.

"We need to get out of here, no matter what."

Chapter 3: A peaceful storm is still a storm

Summary:

Shizuku enters the fray, it only gets worse from here

Another figure stormed in the house.

Well, stormed is a strong word for Shizuku, she sort of just walked in with a deceptively calm smile on her face for such a grisly sight:

Ena, who looks like she should be institutionalized.
Kohane, who is boiling alive and thrashing wildly while screaming.
And a mysterious puddle of blood near the closet door.

"Oh, hello you two." Shizuku's voice was unusually icy. "Have you seen my little brother around here? He's late for his band practice~"

Ena and Kohane turned, and Ena's face twisted into a snarl.

"I've seen your little sister alright." Ena said, her voice hoarse from screaming earlier. "And she was trying to fuck my brother...!"

Shizuku's face dropped slightly. "Oh..."
Tears—possibly just crocodile tears, you could never tell with her— started to fall from her eyes. "B-but my baby brother promised me he'd be a virgin until marriage..."

"Enough with the sappy shit!" Ena snapped. "They're both in that closet!"

Kohane flinched, still writhing in pain from the burning water. "NO! DON'T GO IN THERE!"

The girls both closed in on the closet.

Kohane screamed.

Chapter 4: Fight! Fight!

Summary:

The two girls engage in a fight

The scene was utter hell.

Ena and Shizuku got into a catfight, if you could even call it that. Tackling each other to the ground, screaming at each other, there was more blood on the floor, nobody knew who's it was at this point.

"GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME, YOU BITCH!" Ena thrashed underneath Shizuku.

Shizuku wrapped her hands around Ena's neck. "Don't tell me what to do, Ena-chan~"

Kohane was barely hanging on, her skin red and blistering, she was breathing heavily, her eyes barely open, her skin burning.

Akito was bleeding out in the closet from the glass embedded in his skin, and Shiho wasn't doing much better.

"Aki— no no no no...please stay with me baby...!" He grabbed Akito by the shoulders, speaking in a hushed tone.

Akito didn't respond.

Ena was still being choked by Shizuku, her face starting to turn blue.

Ena's hands clawing at Shizuku's started to lose their grip.
"stop..."

Kohane gasped,

twitched violently.

Then she passed out.

Chapter 5: Predators

Summary:

Shiho risks himself to save Kohane, but gets caught.

Shiho heard it.
One less sound of breathing in the room.

"KOHANE-!"

He busted out of the closet door, not caring for his own safety anymore, and he rushed to Kohane.

"Hey! Kohane, can you hear me? Wake up! Wake up!!"

The two girls eyes locked on Shiho like two predators spotting a deer.

"Shiho-chan~!"
"YOU!!"

Shiho froze.

Not only was Kohane not breathing, Akito was probably on the verge of death, and now the girls' eyes were on him. He couldn't run away and leave those he cared about to die, and he couldn't stay and risk his own life. He didn't know what to do.

So he simply curled in on himself.

And cried.

Ena was seeing stars at this point, her hands twitching where they were weakly gripping Shizuku's.

"Don't...you...fucking...dare..."

Shizuku smiled, but it didn't quite reach her eyes. "Don't worry, Ena-chan! Once I'm finished with you I'll take care of him next~!" She pressed harder into Ena's throat.

And then, to add insult to injury:

"Maybe if you were a better big sister to Aki-kun, this wouldn't have happened~"

Chapter 6: The storm before the calm

Summary:

Shiho manages to stop the fight between Shizuku and Ena

"STOP!!"

Shiho's voice tore through the room.

Ena looked up. Shizuku's hands loosened just slightly enough for Ena to draw in a desperate breath of air.

"STOP!! STOP FIGHTING! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!"

. . .

"Just...please." Shiho's voice was now but a trembling whisper. "Let her go, Shizuku."

Slowly, hesitantly, Shizuku unwrapped her hands from around Ena's neck, and Ena started gasping for her breath.

"This isn't over, darling~"
"Go to hell."

Shizuku gently lifted Kohane's hand. It fell back down limply when she dropped it. "Aww..."

"We need to call an ambulance for her and Akito." He said. "Do either of you have a phone?"

Ena took her phone from out of her pocket. "Shit. My screen is cracked."

Shizuku spotted the home phone by the couch. "You could call for help on the home phone?"

Shiho got up with shaky legs to go and dial 911 on Kohane's house phone.

Chapter 7: Hospital

Summary:

The hospital where Kohane and Akito are now. An is here too.

After Shiho called 911 and also called An (An and Kohane are dating of course) we have a timeskip to a day later. Everyone is tense with apprehension about if Akito and Kohane are going to be okay.

An shows up. Her expression is unreadable.
And then:

"What happened to Kohane."

Nobody wanted to say it. Ena looked away.

"You said she got hurt, right? If it was any of you guys' fault I'll never forgive you!"

Silence.
Then Ena spoke up.

"I...I pushed her into the coffee table... Sh-she kinda knocked over a pot of tea and...It burnt her..."

"You what !?"

Ena nodded.

"Is she dead?"

. . .

Nobody knew.

An froze. Then, her face twisted in agony.

"No...no no no no no...not my Kohane...you..."

She grabbed Ena by the shoulders and shook her violently.

"You killed her!? You killed MY Kohane, didn't you, you monster!! How could you!? HOW COULD YOU, YOU MURDERER!"

Ena's eyes watered "I-I didn't mean-"

Suddenly, An dropped to her knees.

"Why does everyone I love always leave me...?"

She cried.
And cried.
And cried.

"What did I do to deserve this...?"

Everyone was silent.

A doctor entered.

"Are you four with Azusawa Kohane?"

They all nodded.

"I need to talk to you in private."

Chapter 8: You'll Be Okay

Summary:

The group visits Kohane, and things get emotional.

Notes:

Sorry this one is short 😓 since I've written most of it already I'll probably post a couple more chapters today...

Blink.
Blink.
Blink.
Then,
Her eyes close.
A shaky breath.
Where is Kohane?

"Kohane? Koha-chan? Baby? Please, say something..."

Her eyes open just slightly.
"Why...won't...I...die...?"

An's eyes widen.
"No, no, baby, don't say that! Don't think like that! You'll be okay! You'll be okay!"

Shiho and Shizuku couldn't look.

An started to cry again as Kohane shut her eyes briefly.

"You'll be okay...you'll be okay..." She repeated it like a mantra, like if she said it enough, it'd be true.

But...
An could hardly believe it at all.

Chapter 9: Please don't leave

Summary:

Kohane begins to wake. Just a little.

The room was too quiet, too still.

Shiho had went to go check on Akito, who was thankfully doing alright.
Shizuku went to take a break outside to vape.
Nobody knows where Ena went.

So now it was just Kohane and An in the room.

"I'm so sorry, baby..." An said, still speaking through her tears. "I wish I could take your pain away..."

Kohane didn't answer. Just more blinking.

More silence.

Blink.
Blink.
Blink.
A shaky inhale.
A small groan.

Kohane's eyes moved slightly.
They looked at An.

"An-chan...?"

A glimmer of hope flashed across An's face. "Yes! Yes, baby, it's me...!"

Kohane's voice trembled, but it was there. "I'm...sorry..."

An's eyes widened with surprise.
"No! Don't apologize, Koha-chan! It wasn't your fault..."

"...It was that bitch Ena's fault..." She finished under her breath.

Kohane gently squeezed An's hand. "Don't... go..."

An's eyes filled with tears again, and she held her forehead to Kohane's bandaged knuckles. "I'll stay as long as it takes to help you heal, I promise..."

Chapter 10: Obsession

Summary:

An is told to leave and it doesn't go down well.

A nurse walked in the room, she had a calm expression, the kind of practiced calm only doctors, nurses—and ninjas, maybe— can master.

"Miss Shiraishi? Visiting time has ended now, you need to leave." 

As soon as the words: "you need to leave" hit An's ears, she looked up sharply.

"I can't go." She said. "I promised I'd stay."

"But, ma'am, you can't stay all night. We still need to do other procedures–"

An snarled. "She *needs* me, you don't understand. Me and MY Kohane can't be apart after what happened."

The nurse looked even more serious. "Miss, I'll ask you to leave one last time, or we'll have you escorted out."

"NO!!"

An's hand tightened around Kohane's, making the latter let out a yelp of pain that An didn't notice in her fury.

"I can't leave her alone! I can't!! She needs me!! You can't take my Kohane away!!"

Crying, sniffling, drooling.
Trembling—no, convulsing.
An was completely lost.

The nurse called up security on her walkie-talkie, and had An escorted out.

They put An in a straitjacket.
Kohane could only watch in horror.

Notes:

An pls get it together

Chapter 11: Where we all are

Summary:

A chapter to catch up on everyone.

"Hospital food fucking sucks."
"Good to know you're alive and well."

Akito took a reluctant bite of the gross hospital food, making Shiho smirk. Akito is a picky eater after all, not like Shiho should be saying much...

"I heard screaming last night." Akito said suddenly.

"What? When?"

"After they said it was the end of visiting hours. It...it sounded like An."

Shiho looked concerned. "She did seem really twisted up when she first saw Kohane's state..."

"I hope they're okay..."

~ ~ ~

"Kohane...Kohane..."

An was rocking back and forth in the corner of her padded cell, tears dripping slowly... slowly...

"I wonder what they're doing to you...they should have let me stay..."

She tried to scratch at her face, but the straitjacket got in the way. She forgot she was wearing it.

Somewhere, Kohane was still waiting for her in her hospital bed.

~ ~ ~

"I think I'm gonna be sick just looking at you."

Ena glared at Shizuku. Shizuku smiled back.

"Well, you were the one who said big bad swear words in front of my darling brother~" Shizuku pouted. "Really, I should be the one who's more mad~!"

"You almost killed me!"

"But I didn't!"

Ena growled. "One of these days I'm gonna rip out your fucking intestines and feed them to you."

"Those are big, big words for someone so small~!"

Ena stormed off, throwing down her lipgloss as she stomped away.

Shizuku picked it up,
opened it,
and kissed the brush.

Notes:

I wrote almost all of the chapters already help

This is the most I've written in a while
