Whack! Thump! Crunch! Flesh pounds into bones, figures grunting and groaning with the sounds of violence. Like an artist throwing paint, blood splatters to the polished tiles of a freshly-cleaned men's restroom, the scent of iron mingling with ammonia. Five schoolboys pile themselves around another young man, one Saruyuki Takemitsu, who is quickly finding it more difficult to fend them off as they lay into his body with ferocious punches and savage kicks. [break][break]
"You should have just let it happen, Takemitsu," says a sixth figure a few meters away from the ongoing turmoil, grinning smugly with both arms folded into his puffed chest as he looks on in sadistic glee. "None of this would be going on if you had just minded your own damn business."[break][break]
Saruyuki captures a second wind and charges into a couple of the delinquent boys, sending one of them slamming face first into the nearby row of sinks in a spray of red. Two more flank his sides and restrain him with a double full nelson, and even though he smashes his heel into one of their feet in an attempt to escape the hold, a third punk swings his toes into the blond teenager's stomach without mercy, causing him to lurch forward from the pain, gasping but unable to draw in breath.[break][break]
"Stubborn little shit, I'll give you that much." The apparent leader of the mob steps forward, cracking his knuckles. When his flunkies tighten their grip on Saruyuki, a closed fist comes flying into his face from the ruffian's left, sending another splotch of blood to the walls and floor. A right cross follows suit, more vicious than the last. "This is what happens when you try to be a hero."[break][break]
Saruyuki slumps over, seemingly vanquished by their combined assault, as streaks of crimson drool from his mouth to the tiles, collecting at his feet in unevenly-shaped puddles. The arrogant thug nods, a silent gesture for his cronies to relinquish their hold on him, but his hubris would swiftly prove to be his undoing as the blond teenager rams into him with a rising headbutt, thrusting a foot backwards in that same instant.[break][break]
Without delay, Saruyuki resists the pain coursing through his muscles and twists around to lay a punch into one of the goons, following this with a practiced judo throw that sends the victim barreling over his shoulders and into the superior boy's body like a sack of potatoes. Upon shaking himself loose of the potential concussion that threatened to surface, the miscreant uses the sinks as a crutch to assist himself back to his feet, then swivels on them to pay Saruyuki back for the injury with additional interest; he is met with a series of vicious open-palmed thrusts, jabs, and chops that practically disable his attacker on the spot.[break][break]
"Kill that son of a bitch!" The leader of the pack screams through gnashed teeth as he scrambles to regain his bearings, but Saruyuki takes it upon himself to do what was previously unavailable to him and, in another burst of sudden energy, makes a mad dash for the bathroom exit, shoving past several astonished pedestrians in the process. The gaggle of goons follow in hot pursuit, spearheaded by their furious commander.[break][break]
Full of commotion as it already was, Shibuya Terminal had now become a veritable hunting grounds for the ravenous pack of schoolboys, and Saruyuki their prey. Like an injured deer, he bolts and dashes through the crowds to shake away his pursuers as they ran after him in much the same way a mob of wolves would after being denied their chance to feed. Adrenaline is what fuels his flight, desperation his motive.[break][break]
He turns a corner with a skid, and his chasers follow seamlessly. Screams and gasps echo throughout the terminal at their frantic displays, but Saruyuki pays the observations of the peanut gallery no attention. All he can focus on is the image from before, the cause for his current predicament: the sight of a grade school child being harassed for his lunch money, only to be tormented as further punishment for his begrudging willingness to acquiesce to their demands.[break][break]
They would get theirs, he vows to himself. He would make sure of it.

The lights in the terminal begin to flicker erratically, a possible surge in the power lines? Saruyuki takes a risk as if though it were an opportunity being handed to him on a silver platter, sliding madly around another bend. "Get back here, asshole!" snarls the thuggish schoolboy hot on his tail, his band of bruised cronies not even a meter behind.[break][break]
The blond teenager spots a signpost leading to a staircase that descended further into the station. Using his hands as brakes, he slams into the wall in order to push himself down the flight, leaving a smear of blood in his wake. Consequently, this acts as a marker for his chasers, who barrel after Saruyuki like a pack of rabid mongooses without breaking stride. The halogen bulbs continue to flicker and and strobe in ferocious intervals, and the deeper they fled into Shibuya Terminal, the less crowded it became.[break][break]
But, Saruyuki was ultimately bound to run out of space, and it was only a matter of time before he came across a segment he had never seen before, forcing him into a noisy skid across the tile floor, which brought him to a full stop. In his desperation, he takes panicked glances all around him; there were no more stairs to run up or down, nor were there any other corridors or halls. For all intents and purposes, he had reached a dead end.[break][break]
Or had he? Craning his head leftward, Saruyuki found himself staring at what appeared to be a train with open doors – yet, for some reason, there was nobody to be found inside its cabins. Were it not for the situation at hand, he would have also considered it especially suspicious that the rest of this area seemed utterly devoid of life.[break][break]
But before he could make the decision to dip inside the liner and find a hiding spot, Saruyuki's ears picked up the sounds of approaching footsteps and haggard breathing, followed by an amused snicker. There they were, the bloodthirsty wolves in human skin. "Caught you, you goddamned monkey."[break][break]
The bruised and bloodied teenager spits a chunk of red at the floor upon hearing this remark, glaring daggers at his enemies. Right now, he wanted to tear his head off those shoulders and put it somewhere dark and moist, but charging in would have only exposed him to more punishment from their combined efforts. "Screw you..." Saruyuki scowls, "Pickin' on little kids don't make you or your goon platoon tough!"[break][break]
All six of the boys laugh, despite the beatings they took. "Says the guy who just got his ass kicked in a public bathroom," the leader of the gang jeers, as if reminding Saruyuki of what had transpired mere minutes ago. "Why, though? You could have just walked away, pretended like nothin' happened." His sneer fades into a menacing stare. "Why?"[break][break]
"It should've been obvious from the start," Saruyuki calls back, taking a deep breath of air while sweeping both of his arms in choreographed, circular movements, adjusting his posture into a low crouch upon assuming a graceful attacking stance. "Punks like you piss me off."[break][break]
"That's your excuse? Please. Don't act so sanctimonious, Takemitsu." A couple of mocking 'oohs' and 'aahs' came from the gaggle of gangers, followed by more deprecating laughter. "It's gotta be more personal than that, right?" The biggest influence in the group squints his eyes like a nearsighted optometrist. "Is it for approval? Friendship? Status, even? Or maybe... Maybe you wanted that little pipsqueak's money for yourself?"[break][break]
"Bait me all you want, this fish ain't takin' it," Saruyuki retorts, but this barely fazes his assailant or the helping hands at his disposal. Images of the sobbing child replayed in the back of his thoughts, the bullies' taunting and mockeries carved into his memories like a chef's knife to a stalk of bok choy.[break][break]
"That's what's wrong with you high-and-mighty types, though. You're always railin' on about 'wanting to make a difference' or 'being a good example for others'." The boisterous punk wipes a streak of blood from beneath a nostril, then licks the crimson substance off his thumb, only to spit it back out in contemptuous fashion. "It's a goddamned fantasy, a pipe dream that only stupid people think is worth following!"[break][break]
"Shut up, asshole!" Saruyuki snaps back at the verbally hostile youth, unable to sustain his composure any more than he was willing to put up with his insults.[break][break]
"You're only proving my point, though!" the pugnacious teenager continues taunting Saruyuki without pity or remorse, "That you're even bothering to give a shit means you know I'm right!"[break][break]
"I said shut up!" Open palms transform into balled fists. Anger continues to boil even hotter, sizzling to the surface, ready to erupt without warning.[break][break]
"Or what? You gonna tell on me? Run back to daddy?"[break][break]
Saruyuki snaps. Instantly, he lets loose a bloody howl and sprints at the boys like angry Spanish bull. Although the disparaging fellow had anticipated this, what he didn't count on was a flying tackle delivered straight into his abdomen, which not only sends him and his blond counterpart crashing to the floor, but leaves him prone enough to allow Saruyuki several violent, blood-soaked jabs to the bridge of his nose, all of them issued with the intent to push it straight into the depths of his skull.[break][break]
The five other delinquent youths take it upon themselves to lay into Saruyuki as they had done in the bathroom, one of them forcefully kicking the teenager off their accomplice hard enough to free him from the savage assault, while three others follow suit with stomps and punts of their own. All this does is enrage Saruyuki even more, and in a single dramatic motion he brings his entire body into a clockwise spin, throwing his own legs upward just far enough to smack a foot or two into their faces, sending them staggering back a few feet.[break][break]
The other two boys rush forward to take their place as soon as Saruyuki regains his posture, while a broken-nosed vagabond, newly empowered by his own fury, rises up and joins the melee with his fists swinging. The blond boy ducks and weaves, but finds himself receiving more blows than he is able to dish out, each strike whittling at his endurance like a sculptor's chisel into clay. A foot sweeps him off his feet, but instincts force Saruyuki to grab one of his attacker's wrists, pulling him to the ground as well, all while another free hand runs effortlessly into his victim's abdomen to great effect.[break][break]
The lights fizzle and strobe as the onslaught continues, blood practically smeared and caked along the empty terminal docks as the sounds of violence echo throughout.[break][break]
Saruyuki rolls the one boy off his body, and he vomits from the pain in his stomach. A second tries to attack from his blind spot, but the tenacious blond fighter uses his own weight against him and employs another judo throw to send him face-first into a nearby trash bin. But a foot strikes his chin from below outside of his periphery, sending his lower jaw cracking into the upper with an agonizing crunch and throwing Saruyuki back to the floor.[break][break]
As the leader tries to close in for the coup de grâce, Saruyuki winces with clenched teeth and forcefully rams the heel of his shoe into the groin of his encroaching assailant, pulling a startled yelp of agony from the burly boy's throat, who clutches between his legs with both hands and falls to both knees, allowing Saruyuki another opportunity to use both feet in a nasty double kick, thrusting them into the thug's nose and pushing him to the ground with staggering effect.[break][break]
Four of the delinquents gather their bearings and decide that enough is enough, resorting to the use of their surroundings to get the one-over on their victim, who was proving himself to be far more troublesome than they had initially believed he would be. Taking the trash can that one of them had been surreptitiously shoved into, one of the schoolyard punks slams it into Saruyuki, who barely lifts his arms high enough to avoid getting it into his face. Another punts his ribs, which knocks the wind out of him, allowing a third to stomp on an upper thigh so that he might disable its respective leg from flailing about, while the fourth miscreant strikes Saruyuki's face with his own foot, leaving a nasty welt over his right eye in the process.[break][break]
The more Saruyuki struggled to fight back, however, the weaker his body became; there were too many of them to fend off on his own, and without help, he was all but completely defenseless. Not even his surprise crotch attack was able to keep the battered bruiser down for long, who furiously motioned for his lackey to surrender his use of the trash can over to him.[break][break]
In a volcanic mix of blood and spittle, the boy lifts the receptacle on high and brings it down over Saruyuki's face with the last ounce of strength he had left.[break][break]
Then, all goes black.

Post by Saruyuki Takemitsu on Mar 25, 2019 16:57:52 GMT
[nospaces] [attr="class","dangerhead"] [attr="class","dangerbody"] [attr="class","dangericon"] [attr="class","dangertxt"] When Saruyuki comes to, his head begins to roll wearily from the unyielding pain. The world seems to spin wherever he moves, his sense of gravity no longer able to help him regain his bearings. Worse yet, he comes to the realization that his arms are being restrained by two of the thugs he had just delivered a royal thrashing to, but his body is too battered to resist, too broken and bloody. Everything around him is obscured by a swollen right eye and the oscillating lights of the terminal, colors blurred into each other amidst a veritable sea of red.[break][break] " You're a real biece of shit, Takemitsu, you doe that?" A familiar voice calls out from above Saruyuki, hidden behind a red-stained hand. The teenager cannot lift his head up to inspect the damage; rather unfortunately, though, one of the roughed-up ruffians grips at his matted hair ferociously from behind him and yanks back, yet this does nothing except satisfy the bully's ego. " Broke by goddabbed dose, gave be add by guys one hell of a beatigh."[break][break] Flanking the leader were the other two toughs, who were able to secure hold of some long, and rather threatening, dull gray, line-shaped objects. One of them steps forward and swings it down over Saruyuki's head in a resounding metallic thunk, revealing them to be severed lead pipes all along. The second delinquent brings his in an upward arc, smacking Saruyuki square in the face and opening up a rather grotesque wound over it.[break][break] They each take turns on the boy as if he were a human kendō target, making sure that each blow delivered unto him would be equally crippling to Saruyuki's pride as it was meant to be in the physical sense. Whack! Thump! Crunch![break][break] By the time another round of torture was to commence, the two miscreants were quietly called off by their superior-in-charge, who takes a moment to inspect the damage. Saruyuki lies utterly motionless within the grip of the other three flunkies, barely able to remain conscious enough to process what was happening. Of course, this was their plan; the last thing these punks wanted were the police to show up because of the loud screaming.[break][break] " I could just let by guys kill you, but you deed do be dought a lessod id hubility," the sadistic boy whispers from behind his mouth, stooping low to glare at the woozy Saruyuki as he drooled copious amounts of blood from every visible orifice on his head and face. " Baybe a traid ride ought to straigden your ass oud." Looking up at his three henchmen, he nods, a visual signal to let him have it.[break][break] Like a ragdoll with broken legs, Saruyuki is dragged backwards and hurled between the open doors of the passenger cabin which sat docked in the terminal, wholly unconcerned with the consequences of their actions or the possible attention it would attract their way. Unable to resist, the bloody teenager tumbles into the middle of the aisle, spilling rivers of ichorous life fluid against the cabin floor and railings, then hits the other side of the train with his back, almost as if he were roughly propped up there.[break][break] One of the pipe-wielding punks took it upon himself to throw his weapon, an added insult to the injuries that were piled upon Saruyuki earlier, but the train's doors seemingly close shut before the implement has a chance to cross through and strike the boy. The delinquent scowls as it resonates with a piercing clang and falls uselessly to the station floor, but is consoled by his broken-nosed companion, who waves mockingly to the injured Saruyuki as the liner suddenly begins to move along the tracks.[break][break] The pain becomes too much, and the rest of the world fades into whiteness.[break][break] [ THREAD CONCLUDED ] [attr="class","dangerfoot"] [attr="class","dangertag"] solo thread
