Chained to time.

Chronos had found himself making a habit out of grabbing Kichona at night and asking him to come to his room. He had made a habit of pulling him into his lap sitting back and letting him fall asleep in his lap holding him all night long. Why because there was still hostilities and fights off and on and he wanted Kichona to feel safe at night. That and Chronos found he enjoyed just holding the younger Kasai. Although tonight was different then any other night the past two weeks, tonight Kichona was shifting and squirming in his sleep leaning back on him right now, and Chronos swore it was torture. Absolute torture and yet he made no move to move him off of his lap as Kichona slowly over the course of an hour and a half got him to the point he was arouse and then.....release. Chronos went a touch wide eyed staring down at the fiery red hair of the young man. He was so very uncomfortable at the moment and embarrassed not because he had gotten himself dirty but because he got Kicha.

Kicha woke up pulled from the restless dream of what happened years ago back home only to feel something hard and solid prodding him in the back side and this wet warmth soaking his clothes. Kicha though waking up and trying to figure out what was jabbing him and why he was wet reached down to figure it out.

Chronos though just about died he was panicking and shifted not wanting Kicha to find out just how much he had gotten aroused from Kicha's squirming, so he hismelf moved and squirmed which in the end did the exact opposite of what he had been desperately trying not to do. He shifted himself right into Kicha's hand as Kicha had been reaching back to touch the material of his clothes....and in that moment found something else entirely. It was his luck and felt like he could die right now....of all the things the boy slept peacefully in his lap normally and Chronos indulged in it. But this evening? This evening a guilty little pleasure he indulged in while Kichona was innocently cuddling....just backfired on him.

Kicha was still half asleep but at that moment he lifted his head confused by the sudden....connection with his hand that was hard....he blinked owlishly and bright eyed and confused, as it dawned on him that he might be touching....he was now fully awake and blushing several shades of red. His ears had tinted nearly a deep enough shade to match his fiery hair.

Chronos froze the moment Kicha's nibble fingers touched him the chains had been sent away he always did at night....but Chronos froze stiff as a board his body rigid as at that moment a man who was so skilled in many things found himself not knowing what to do. He sat there staring at the back of Kichona's head as he almost held his breathe. He had been so painstakingly gentle with Kichona wanted him to join the group, held him at night because he liked the scent of the young man it was relaxing. But this? This had him frozen staring at Kichona waiting to figure out what the smaller Kasai's reaction to this would be.

Kichona was also sitting still not moving his hand stationary on what it found behind him. He bowed his head slightly before shifting around somehow not dislodging his hand prehaps because some part of his mind was utterly a blank at what he was touching at the moment. But as he turned shifting about to look up at Chronos with the slight heat on his face. Before his gaze traveled down to where his hand was in contact with the taller member of Route a look of sure curiosity as if to find out if he was really touching what he thought he was touching.

Chronos just about died when he did that looked up at him so innocently blinking and blushing and wide eyed with sort of a sleepy innocent curiosity before he looked down....Kichona looked down to where his hand was currently in contact with him and that sent this jolt right through Chronos that made him respond under Kichona's touch a sorta....yup you are....He closed his eyes.....some part of his mind screamed just kill me now. Another part had him watching Kichona trying to figure out just how he would respond...

Kicha looked up at him, still blushing only now he was about three shades deeper in color giving his fiery hair a run for the money his unique gemstone eyes held a faint glow to them as curiosity danced there....he started to move his hand slowly away trying to not do anything to hurt or upset Chronos only to feel the response to his movement so subtle that he froze and actually took a deep breath. An 'Oh shit what do I do now?' Look on his face for a moment before he rolled his eyes up searching Chronos's own baby blues trying to figure out that very question out.....and more importantly this man who had the brute strength to crush him....Kichona was trying to figure out if he was upset at all....and he wasn't finding any sign of anger. In fact Chronos's face was almost pleading.

Chronos was looking down at Kicha who was sitting on his lap his smaller lean frame had fit so perfectly into his for cuddling and yet....right now Kicha was giving him this adorable bedroom look so sleepy still despite being awake, his eyes slightly laden with sleep looking up at Chronos through his long deep red lashes...and he was looking at him pleading face giving him the 'Oh shit....don't look at me like that....' face. Really don't....if he kept looking like that Chronos knew his darker nature would want to devour and eat up Kichona.....he really should stop looking at him like that.....if he wanted to get out of this with his innocence intact.

Kichona looked all cute and innocent his hair mussy around his head he looked like something begging to be gobbled up because he's so innocent when it comes to these very things. Having been kept isolated for the most part in the Temple. Kichona once again started to move his hand away, slowly trying to not hurt Chronos for whatever reason he had somehow caused this he was sure but....he didn't want to hurt him.

Chronos drew in a sharp breath and let out a very low almost hushed sound a response out of Chronos that was barely even audible and yet it was there. "Oh...." he breathed closing his eyes a moment.

Kicha seeing his response not sure if that was an 'Oh' or an 'Ow' or a sharp indraw of air because it hurt froze at the sudden sound. Able to hear it in the room as it was just the two of them. "Ah...am I...that is...." he said then bite his lower lip worrying at it a moment or two before he tried again at this moment Kichona was back to being his timid shy self that he had been growing up in the temple. He took a deep breath trying to steady himself and tried again. "Hurting you?" Kichona asked because honestly be's been touching him and now he's got Chronos in this vulnerable state before him, as Kichona tipped his head and looked up at him once again through his long thick lashes. Kichona had no idea at all what he was doing it was all innocent on his part. Still slightly sleepy even though he was awake he was without trying to seducing him without meaning to. He looked up through eyelashes, timid innocent responses full of even more innocent wonder.

Chronos groaned and brought his arm up to drop it over his eyes his head falling back as if to look up at the ceiling...covering his eyes as Kichona just...."Oh shit....I can't take it...." he said feeling himself respond again and barely holding onto his already fraying control. He knew he couldn't control himself not like he should when Kichona did things like that....his hips as if in response moved a little at the sudden stop of sensation of his hand moving. Chronos moved his arm and looked back down at Kichona who asked such an innocent question. 'Hurting him....' He was looking at him from under his arm showing only one baby blue at the moment trying to regain control although at such an innocent statement..."Hurting....is certainly not the way I'd describe it....." he answered in a low husky tone. If Kicha kept this up....

Kichona was certain there was some sort of pain or discomfort....right? But he blinked when Chronos responded that way barely aware that his own body was responding to Chronos that he himself was....responding to the little signals that Chronos was trying to crush down. But Kichona's cheeks took on an absolutely bright rosy hue. "Oh...I see I think...." he said in response as he went to move his hand away again still being Kichona he was trying to be so gentle because if it's not hurting him it's doing something else to him and Kichona was trying to not make it worse.

What he didn't realize was that his attempts to not make the situation worse he was actually doing just the opposite he was stimulating Chronos....He paused as his hand hovered just above Chronos and said. "Are you sure? Is there anything I can....do?"

Chronos stared at him and then blurted out. "Oh God....." when Kichona looked up at him looking all adorable and vulnerable his hand resting against Chronos and then to ask is there anything he could do....Chronos groaned he was done for now but Kichona had asked. He groaned again before sighing and looked at Kichona his mind made up, knowing that he would regret his later, but right now he can't possibly hold back this sort of thing... "Yeah....there is...." he answered.

Kicha looked up at him then. "Oh?" he asked in response glad to know there was something he could do for Chronos to help him since this problem occurred while he was sleeping on his lap. His clothes were feeling a bit gross at the moment and his body was all happily responding down below hidden underneath the silken panels at the moment so it wasn't clearly seen. "What is it?"

Chronos looked at him then his arm coming down as his own baby blue eyes locked with Kicha's lovely gem like eyes and he answered in a low dark sensual tone, the blunt direct 'boss' side of him coming out as he answered directly. "jerk me..." he said lowly.

Kichona went a bit wide eyed before glancing down to where his hand was and yet....he had asked if there was anything he could do for him. He had opened this door did it bother him no....not if that intense heated blush staining his cheek bones was any clue. He took a deep breath as he liberated the material undoing the button and zipper. He was more or less 'obeying' and yet it wasn't so much as he had to but....Kicha was he took Chronos into his hand and began moving his hand so freaking gentle as he began doing just that. He had been moving his hand for a while hearing low sounds escaping from Chronos once and a while and yet....Kicha himself could feel heat building up in his own body....going lower and was glad for the silk panels of his uniform for the moment. But as he moved his hand he slowly came to realize it wasn't enough....he had been doing as asked for while but so gentle it was a slow almost painfully slow build up....During his travels in the village he had heard the village men talking about....He glanced down again before mustering up his courage and shifted down off of Chronos's lap who had his eyes closed his head tipped back humming as Kicha did as asked but...wasn't sure if what he was doing was enough and then shifted needing to move as heat and tension were making things very uncomfortable for him down below.

Kicha not thinking that he's doing enough and remembering that the girls in the village and the guys talked about something else being easier. So already feeling things tight and uncomfortable lower on himself, he shifted backwards and down, hesitating before replacing his hand with his mouth not exactly sure what he's doing but certain he's not doing nearly enough with just his hand, and he's trying to figure out how to please....since he knew this happened because of something he did no doubt.

Chronos would only indicate that he was heavily enjoying himself, he was quiet at first but when Kicha shifted to using his mouth the only thing he could say was "oh Fuck yes...." He breathed, his voice taking on darker notes Kicha had done it on his own and he was thrilled....as he brought his hand down to the top of Kichona's head as he worked on pleasuring him using his mouth. He looked down hungry at the top of his head. By morning his ass would belong to Chronos now. There was no holding back not now. He had been trying to play the nice guy for Kicha's sake but now? Now all he wanted was to devour the younger Kasai before him. He kept his hand there making certain that in his own way that he continued and when he felt things tightening up he groaned pushing down....Kicha coughed slightly but in the end took in all that he had to offer. He pulled back not savage but certainly not gentle as he moved his hand and caught his chin. "I'm going to devour your ass..." he whispered in a low dark tone in his ear shifting back in time to see him go slightly wide eyed. "But first....take em out." He said looking at him wanted to see him, the real him.

Kicha swallowed and looked at him, before reaching up and taking out the black contacts, be closed his eyes then looked up at him and Chronos smirked. "good boy." he said then moved and lifted Kicha's smaller frame up like it was nothing moved over to the bed....and tossed him down before moving over him. "Your going to be singing a whole new religion." He said in a dark low tone as he moved over Kicha......

~*~
Chronos looked at the still sleeping frame on his bed. Last night....He closed his eyes, last night he had lost all control. Last night he had been seduced by Kichona and Kichona surprised him, the sweet innocent Guardian Priest had a different side to him a very naughty side. But he looked at Kicha's back at the lattice work of wounds that reminded him of Kogai's but not as immense. But still nasty never the less and Kichona never said anything never complained about how wild and rough he got with him last night. How many times he made him cry out....He had made a point of carving into the young man sleeping now how much he now belonged to him. He had tried to maintain control, he always did, always in control but last night. Last night to see him that way had broken his resolve and he had taken him. But now seeing those lattice work of cuts and wounds he knew now why Kogai made him swear to never use the other on him. To never allow Kicha to take that other drug. He looked at his jacket Kichona had to have something that he could use to stop what was happening this morning as the wounds were started to open.

Chronos walked over to his jacket and looked in the pockets finding the container with the ointment. For him to carry it meant he was well aware of his condition and that at times it needed to be reapplied sooner. He walked back over to the bed nude as the day he was born and comfortable he sat down and opened it....it was...the same ointment that Kogai had had when he was first with them and ran out. He placed his fingers to the ointment and then began to gently gingerly put it on his back. To reseal up those wounds. He hated seeing these wounds wounds that never fully healed because of the way the damage was done. What had he learned about it....oh yes the whip that hit them had to have been infused with Psy-nen in order to inflect such terrible wounds. Those people....why would they do that to them and for they to be this old it had to have been done with they were children.

Kicha felt gentle pressure against his lower back and stiffened.

"It's alright Kicha." He said in a gentle tone those same tones he normally spoke to him in patient and understanding. "Just relax....I'll be done shortly it's easier if someone else does it for  you right?" he asked and Kicha after a moment nodded.

"Hai." he said as he laid there. "It is."

"It's alright just relax, I'll take care of it for you....from now on." Chronos said in a soothing tone as he looked at him. Kichona nodded as he laid there. "Do you hurt?"

He paused as he thought about that question. "No." he answered truthfully. "I'm senstive to move but I don't hurt." he said as he rested there. "Mm Chronos...."

"What is it Kichona?" he asked as he looked at him, carefully applying the Ointment to each one and only each one because he could see what he was doing and taking his time applying the Ointment to each of the cuts.

"I'll....join." Kichona spoke and Chronos smiled as he leaned down and whispered.

"I'll make the arrangements Kichona." he said lowly as he applied it. "Either way...your mine." He said but Kichona looked back at him and saw this gentle look on his face but the words showed something more.

Either way he was Chronos's now....

"Just relax..."He said having lost against Kichona and taken him last night....there was simply no way he was letting him go now.

He laid there for a while longer then got up and sighed as Chronos got up and left the room to go do just that after applying the Ointment. Once it was there and Kicha waited the time for it to set and seal becoming waterproof and it would have to ware off....he got up and walked into the bathroom Taking a shower as he knew he had to clean up.

Getting dressed afterwards he stepped out of the bathroom and sighed looking in the mirror. He was wearing dark green uniform outfit today. Then looked at the door before him. He had to go out there....he had made the choice and he could not take it back. Not now. He had told Chronos he would join. Chronos hadn't hesitated at all upon accepting his answer. After two weeks of being a 'guest' and learning about them....he had finally said yes.

Kichona walked down the hall and into the main room were once again all were gathered. Gokei and Kogai were standing next to each other. Seishin who was up and moving about now but still bandaged up was sitting there with them. Chronos walked in with the tattoo artist that would be placing his 'welcoming' on him. The tattoo that marked him one of them. Chronos walked up behind Kichona seemingly looking at no one but slipped his arm about him and then caught his tipped his head and kissed him devouring his mouth before lifting him up and walking towards his chair. The sudden ire in the room was tangible. Gokei, Kogai and Seishin were all happy with seeing the tattoo artist they knew what it meant.

Chronos walked over sat down and then helped Kichona out of his top more or less down to his waist keeping the damaged skin covered and blocked from sight by being pressed against Chronos himself. However he was well aware of how painful this was about to be and since the symbology of the Monkey was important in the troupe he handed over the image before looping his arms under Kichona's own and locking his hands behind his neck holding him in place.

"You agreed to Join Kichona. The Monkey is place according to it's meaning." he said  glancing up and seeing the dark look in Mugo's eyes pissed off was an understatement. He looked at the artist. "On his chest above his heart Kokormotsuzaru' " he said as he leaned his head against Kichona's own and spoke again in those same gentle soothing tones. "It means 'Don't have heart.' And it's your symbol now among us until the day you die...." He said as the man lifted several things and then cleaned and disinfected the skin above his heart on his chest before picking up the gun and going to work the needle began punching its way through skin.

At first Kichona merely closed his eyes unable to move at the moment. Some part of his mind screamed dam it. Another had his heart pounding in his chest and the final as the burning heat became pain as the needle was punching through sensitive skin and he grit his teeth before making a sound of pain. Still holding him Chronos made Kicha tip head back again against his shoulder. The main wiped off water, ink and blood as he worked.

"Just a little longer Kichona and you'll understand why this is so important." He said lowly gently as he held him. What seemed all day of pain it was only about two hours and finished by the time it was done Kichona swore it was torture the pain was insane. His breathing deep as he sat there and the man took and put clean water on it to clean if off before applying a gauze bandage and tape to hold it there. Once finished Chronos moved his hand and put it against good skin that wasn't sensitive and held him back against him.

"You'll receive your pay by morning." Chronos said to the guy and the man nodded packed up his gear and left.

Once he was gone though Chronos spoke again but this time to make it clear just what his position was in the family. "Kokoromotsuzaru, means 'Don't have Heart' but what that means to the Troupe Kichona, the reason you no longer have your heart....is because you've given it now to the Troupe so it is no longer yours to keep.....you are the sixth member and one that we all agreed....we wished to see join. Now my brothers you can officially welcome Kichona home."

Gokei smiled as he looked over at Them as Kichona was leaning against Chronos his breathing deep as he sat there the gauze patch sitting over the monkey he was one of them now. A member of Route Troupe. But it was Kogai who smirked.

"Welcome home little brother." Kogai said into the room making a point of being the first to say it. He felt like he needed to be he was the one who bore the strongest connection to Kichona if they traced there family line they were related down the line somewhere distant relatives but the relation was there never the less. Kichona opened his eyes which were blurry stinging and nodded.

"Indeed welcome to the Troupe little brother." Gokei said nodding and Seishin seconded but had sent a text off to Mugo telling him that Kichona had finally joined.

All eyes in the room seemed to fall on him as he was looking at Chronos who was playing with Kichona's hair running his hand over his head in a soothing manner. As if to ease away his discomfort and pain or take his mind off of it but it was his action upon entering with the Tattoo artist. The way he had grabbed Kichona and kissed him......clearly stating to all in the room that Kichona was his.

Mugo walked in having indeed received the text message. He came walking into the room a cold angry glare fixed on Chronos as his aura was that same thick, dark , murderous aura from when Kicha had said his first name.

Kicha shivered and lifted his head looking over at Mugo who he'd know that belongs to and stare as Mugo looks ready to kill."Mugo?"

He'd just shift that hateful gaze and anger towards Kicha, telling him coldly, "Shut up or I'll kill you instead."

Kicha not amused would be silent and look at him warily.

Mugo would look back to Chronos then and point to him telling him lowly, "You and me...right here, right now..."

Kichona would go a bit wide eyed not sure what the heck was going on having no idea at all that Mugo had decided that Kichona belonged to him and in the end Kichona Chronos would snort at that though and pull out his Chrono Scythe. "I only play dirty when you play dirty Mugo. You know that..."choose Chronos was being quiet at the moment.

Chronos, indulged Mugo and just sigh, before standing up and putting Kicha down in his chair and walk slowly down to stand a distance away from Mugo and look at him. "You know...you're a pain in the ass...."

Mugo though would activate Shiva and glared coldly at Chronos. "You play dirty Chrono..."

Chronos would snort at that though and pull out his Chrono Scythe. "I only play dirty when you play dirty Mugo. You know that..."


Kicha stared between them both going wide eyed as he was now sitting on Chronos's 'throne' so to speak as Chronos pulled loose his Chrono scythe and Mugo summoned his first dance 'Shiva' Mugo stating that Chronos played dirty and his retort only when you play dirty. "What?" he said lowly looking between them as his heart skipped a beat in his chest....what where they talking about playing dirty?

Mugo stood there, third eye closed, but it was twitching. "You knew...you knew I wanted him as mine!" he exclaimed as the eye finally opened, spewing flames at Chronos.

Chronos dodged though, jumping away from the flames. "Even if you did...he wasn't going to be yours. He was too afraid of you..."

Kicha bit his lower lip as he sat there worrying it as he looked between Chronos and Mugo....this was his fault? They were fighting because...."Wait..." he breathed....this wasn't right....Mugo had a lover so what did it matter who Kichona himself fell in love with what was he not understanding?

Mugo's anger only grew as Chronos dodged his attacks, breaking the floor in places, making gaping holes and sending debris crashing down to the garage below. "You asshole!" he exclaimed in annoyance. Only when He was this upset did he lose control of his normally very mild vocabulary. "Hold still so I can crush you!"

Kichona went wide eyed he wanted to shout don't stop it but at the same token....he didn't know if Mugo would even listen to him at this point. He didn't get it at all he hadn't thought that he meant anything special to Mugo. But here he was and that mild playful manner of speaking was gone....for a very angry man trying to crush Chronos because....Kichona had fallen in love with him and not Mugo? Was that the reason. "Don't..." he breathed lowly watching....this was a mess....

Chronos had no intentions of indulging Mugo's request to hold still. Mugo was fast, but so too was Chronos. The more he danced around, the less he had to deal with Mugo at full strength.

Mugo stopped though as he stood there, breathing a little heavy as he glared coldly at Chronos. "You knew I wanted him to be my recruit...it's not fair Chrono..."

Chronos stopped moving when Mugo stopped attacking, only to be thrown off by Mugo's words. That's why he was so upset? His surprise only showed for a few seconds, but it was enough for even Kicha to see.

Mugo was a mess, upset and hurt all at the same time. Somehow, in his own twisted way, he had wanted to build a friendship with Kicha. "You're never nice to me..." he breathed lowly.

Kichona blinked as Mugo was so very upset about that....that he wanted him to be...and was complaining that he wanted him to be his recruit...."Mugo, stop...." Kichona stood up. "This is....for crying out loud....do you really think I won't talk to you just because you weren't the one who recruited me?" Kichona looked at him of all the....."I'm not so shallow.....I'm not going to ignore you."

Even though it was dangerous to provoke Mugo at the same token....this was madness he was upset over that? There wasn't any need to be. He was afraid of Mugo whenever he threw around this massive killing intent that he couldn't shield himself right from yet.

Kichona blinked as Mugo was so very upset about that....that he wanted him to be...and was complaining that he wanted him to be his recruit...."Mugo, stop...." Kichona stood up. "This is....for crying out loud....do you really think I won't talk to you just because you weren't the one who recruited me?" Kichona looked at him of all the....."I'm not so shallow.....I'm not going to ignore you."

Even though it was dangerous to provoke Mugo at the same token....this was madness he was upset over that? There wasn't any need to be. He was afraid of Mugo whenever he threw around this massive killing intent that he couldn't shield himself right from yet.

"Dam it Mugo why was it so important that you were the one who recruited me?" He asked ignoring the shut up or I'll kill you. He needed know and he was tired of everyone thinking they needed to handle things for him. He wasn't weak.

Mugo glared at Kicha as he started blabbing. "If you're with them...you'll somehow be talked out of being any where near me..." he said as he stood there, dropping Shiva. He was so upset right now that he couldn't even maintain Shiva.

"This is crazy....My friend is trying to kill Chronos over something so trival as 'recruit' No one could talk me out of looking up someone in the past despite all they did to keep us separated" He said narrowing his eyes. "Dam it all Mugo....I am quiet capable of choosing who my friends are for all of there ups and downs." He said standing there.

"Mu" He said looking at him. "It doesn't matter who recruits me....a friend is a friend....even a wild unpredictable one like you."

Mugo glared at him even still. He was so upset. Not at Kicha, but at Chronos. He never could understand why Chronos was always so cold to him. All he was doing was playing around. He was wild, and cruel in a lot of ways, but he had joined originally because he was forced, but now? Now he actually liked the Troupe. He said he wanted to kill them all, but now that Kicha had joined...he found that that desire was waning more and more.

Kicha looked at him and then stepped down walking towards him unafraid and then stepped up between Chronos and Mugo. "Your right only in the aspect that it won't matter. Everyone here....is a friend to me. That includes you and will not count you out." He said looking at him and then reached up pulling out the contacts so that he could look at him in the room without the shadow overcast that the pitch black lenses created. "The other day....you found out there were assassins coming here after me....while I was walking in town Mu. You without even batting an eyelash said you'd take care of them they'd never reach me." He looked at him looked up at him. "I told you...a friend is a friend. If I am to consider you as such then that means I've already come to accept all that you are. All of your ups and downs Mu." He looked at him. "It means that I am looking at you....you also stated you couldn't see why people like Nanami Bura do what they do...." He reached up and touched the corner of his eye before shaking his head. "It won't change. No one can make me abandon a friend. Or someone I've come to care about Mu. I've already been condemned for it once and it didn't stop me."

Mugo looked down at him and sighed. Why did he always end up in horrible situations? "Whatever..." he said lowly in a defeated tone.

Kichona looked at him as he said whatever and sighed. Relaxing although he didn't completely lower his guard only because Mugo had been so upset and could flip asithc fast.But fo right now....it wassafe the way it was.
