At the first crack of the dawn light I felt movement beside me as Eric slipped out of my arms and headed for the other bedroom to check on the boy, I forced my eyes open and pushed my legs over the side of the bed to get up just as Eric returned.
"How is he Eric?"
I looked over to the monitor and saw that the boy had not moved and inch all night but that there were still some very serious blood stains on the bandages covering his back and hip area as well as the sheets.
"I think he is ok James but he is breathing a bit funny."
"Like what?"
"Well sort of in short gasps as though he cant get enough air."
I left Eric standing there and went into the room, the boy was gasping for breath even though he was out cold, I reached down and tried to lift him a little and turn him onto his side in the recovery position and once that was done I took some extra pillows and braced him so he would not roll over again, his breathing eased straight away as the pressure was taken off his ribs.
"Eric, make me some coffee please while I stay with him then you can come and be here until Brian gets here."
"Yes James."
No sooner had the words left Erics mouth than the door bell was buzzing, I heard Eric answer the door and seconds later Brian was standing beside the bed looking down at the boy.
"What happened James, Eric said he was having trouble breathing?"
"It's ok Brian, he was laying on his ribs and they constricted his breathing a bit, he's ok now."
I looked over at Brian as he stood there the now familiar tears were already in his eyes as he surveyed the boy on the bed, it was obvious that he hadn't slept a wink all night.
"Eric, coffee for Master Brian as well please."
Eric came back ten minutes later with coffee for both of us and then he looked at the boy again and with a shuffle leant into my chest, his body was still shaking slightly at the sight on the bed.
"You're early Brian?"
"Couldn't sleep James."
"I know what you mean, what are you going to do today?"
"Well I rang some people to come and pack up my flat today and move every thing into the town house, if the boy can move today then he is going there."
"Brian look at the kid, he's not going to be able to be moved for days yet, he's safer here with both Eric and I to watch over him and I'm telling you now, he's not moving from that bed until Greg says it's ok, do you understand?"
"Yes James I know you're right, it's just I can't get him out of my mind, I feel so useless."
"Brian he trusts you, you just make sure you're here for him when he wakes up."
"You don't mind me hanging around all the time?"
"Look Brian, get your stuff sorted out in the town house then come back here and I'll have a cot set up in here for you to stay with him, Ok?"
"You don't mind?"
"Brian, look at me?"
Brian turned his head to look into my eyes.
"For nearly two years now you've been a Junior Master as such you have not only responsiblities but you have also priviledges, one of them is to be able to do anything you can and go anywhere you want when it comes to protecting your boy, it was obvious to all of us here last night that you want to have this boy and protect him, if he says he wants to be with you then thats what will be, until he can speak for himself you are the only one that has protection over him, so as far as the others are concerned we will support you in any way we can, your place is here at his side until he tells you different so you are welcome to be here at any time or all the time until he makes the decision."
Brian looked down at his boy on the bed nodding his head.
"Right Brian now go lay down in my room and get some sleep, you can't do anything for the boy in that state, I'll call you if there's any change."
Brian reluctantly moved toward my bedroom, his feet shuffling on the carpet as he moved, his years as a submissive automatically cutting in and making him follow the order, had he been fully aware of his surroundings he would have put up an objection but his head was full of worry for the hurt boy so he just followed what he was told.
After an hour there was a small groan from the bed, Eric and I were still sitting beside it waiting for him to open his eyes, I had placed Eric beside the bed so that the boy would see him first when he woke up, I sat near the end of the bed out of the line of sight.
The eye lids fluttered and a louder groan came from the bruised lips as the sedative wore off, Eric reached out a hand toward the boy and with a very feeble movement the boy tried to grasp it and a soft whisper came from his lips.
"You Eric,....I made it?"
Eric's eyes filled again with tears as he nodded his head and grasped the offered hand.
"Yes, you made it."
"Th..th..thank you."
"I have to give you another shot to make you sleep some more, ok?"
The head barely moved as he nodded in agreement, Eric reached over to the side table and took up the syringe and as he had been shown by Greg he gave the boy his shot, two minutes later he was out again.
A half hour passed and then the front door was buzzing urgently again, Eric at my direction left the bedside and went to open the door, seconds later Greg was standing beside the bed looking down at his new patient.
"I saw Brian in your room, he been here all night?"
"No got here about an hour and a half ago, he was washed out so I sent him to get some sleep."
"He looks restless, here give this to Eric and put it in a hot drink for him it'll knock him out for about six hours, he's not going to be much use to us like he is at the moment."
Greg placed a small tablet in my hand and I signalled Eric to do as Greg suggested.
"Right James get out of here so I can work."
I didn't argue and left the room to see that Brian was sitting up a little with a hot Milo in his hands and Eric standing beside the bed telling him that the boy had woken for a minute and that Greg was there with him again.
Brian smiled at my boy as he got the good news that the boy had woken and that Greg was doing his thing again.
Whatever Greg had given me for Brian was very quick and effective as he was again asleep before he had finished half the Milo, I turned to Eric.
"Ok kiddo lets get some breakfast, we're going to have a busy day today."
We left the room to the sleeping Brian and went through to the kitchen and after a light breakfast I sent Eric to do his normal morning ablutions and enema, I felt that for his sake he had to maintain his routines so that what had happened would not keep praying on his mind.
By the time Eric was finished Greg was sitting with me in the lounge having coffee and telling me how the boy was doing, Eric looked at me with that begging look he got when he needed comforting so I nodded and opened my arms for him to scrunch into.
"So James has Nigel rung you about the meeting yet?"
"Not yet Greg, how about you?"
"Yes he got me on my mobile just as I got to your door, it's set for 2.00pm today."
"Good ok I will be there, so will Brian and Eric, did you get the photo's done?"
"Yes Lim is doing them now, a case like this has to be a forgone conclusion."
"Yes, this is going to be a bit of a problem, the guys an outsider, we're going to have to plan this very carefully."
"Yes you're right, I talked with Lim last night, he said he would be willing to be a decoy if we wanted one."
"You know he would be taking a hell of a chance doing that don't you?"
"To get this bastard I'm willing to take it and so is he."
An almost unheard murmer came from my chest where Eric rested his head.
"What's that kiddo?"
Eric lifted his head and looked into my eyes.
"I have to do it."
"Do what?"
"If you need a decoy, I have to do it."
"No kiddo, Lim is better he has martial arts training and is alot stronger than you if it gets messy."
"It wouldn't work with Lim, James."
"Why not?"
"He's to old for the guy to want to pick up."
"What do you mean Eric?"
"look at the boy in there, he looks younger than his real age, even with the way he is beaten up he still looks young, the guy likes young kids, Lim is to old for him, it has to be me."
"No Eric, this guy is dangerous, he would eat you up and spit you out, we will find another way."
Eric shuffled himself and then stood up in front of me at 'Present'
"Master, I humbley request that I be allowed to perform this duty to show honour to you and the Seven Mythra, May They Preserve."
I looked over to Greg as he sat there with a shocked look on his face as no doubt mine showed the same, Eric had presented his case in the one way that he knew I could not refuse, I found my voice at last.
"You know what you are asking, Boy?"
"Yes Master."
"Then it will be as you request."
A shudder went through my body as I said the fateful words, it was as though someone had just walked over my grave, little did I know that it was so close to the truth.
I looked again at Eric and nodded for him to come back to me and he surrendered himself to my lap again placing his head back on my chest as I rubbed his back softly and listened to the light humming coming from him.
It was only a matter of a few minutes before the phone rang and on picking it up Nigel repeated the arrangements for the meeting of Primes, I agreed again and then invited him over for lunch and we would all leave together from here, the meeting was being held in the office of another Prime who had access to a lot of government files and we would need him later to help find the person responsible for the boys condition.
We all took turns going in to check on the boy during the rest of the morning until Nigel arrived and then after waking up a very groggy Brian we sat down to lunch ten minutes after Lim arrived with the photo's for the council, the pictures were so good you could almost feel the pain and hurt in the boy, one look at them and I didn't think anyone would have to say a word to get full agreement on sanctioning a section 23 on the guy that caused it all whether he was a member of the sociey or not.
As predicted the meeting took only long enough for the other Primes to see the pictures and not a word was spoken until Nigel asked for a vote or a discussion, the answer was quick and concise from all there.
"Section 23 approved."
We all set about making the arrangements to get hold of the person and as soon as we found out who he was from the boy we would go ahead and set things in motion, it was agreed, but with some misgivings, that to use a decoy would be best as an adult approaching the guy would put him on alert immediately.
Over the next hour we made the plan we would need and then all we had to do was wait until the boy could give us the final information we needed to go looking for him.
The next three days were very traumatic for both Brian and Eric as they were the only two that the boy would let near him, he would watch with fear in his eyes if I made to step any closer to him than the doorway but he would look up at Brian and the spark of need showed clearly every time Brian laid a hand on him.
The hardest was to get him to let Greg near him to change his dressings each day, the boy would clamp his eyes shut and hold onto Eric's hand in a death grip while Brian ran soothing fingers over his brow and whispered to him softly as Greg did his work, the boy was shaking the whole time Greg was near him even though he fully understood that Greg was there to help him.
By the fourth day the boy was a lot better although his injuries were going to take weeks to heal properly and his mental state was going to take a lot longer although he seemed comfortable when Brian or Eric were with him he still had horific nightmares that had Brian sitting up with him for hours on end.
The boy at last was able to feel comfortable enough to start to tell us about his meeting with the person and what had happened, Brian used a small tape recorder to get it down so we could all hear him as he wouldn't let any of us close enough to listen when he began to tell his story.
When Brian had the whole story on tape we all sat in the lounge to listen to the voice of the boy, it sounded like a small child as it told the story.
The story came out in short bursts as brian asked him questions at times to get all the information he could for us but the fear and distress in the voice was obvious to every one that sat there.
"My names Chris and I'm 16, I had to leave home in Wellington cause I didn't get on with my folks so I came up here to try to find some work and look after myself, but I didn't get anything, so that night I tried to go with a guy to make some money to get a feed, he looked real nice and was really good to me, got me a feed at a fast food and then said I could stay with him for a while till I found a good place."
Brians voice came through asking him a couple of questions then the boy continued.
"Well everything was ok till we got to his place then when I got inside he hit me hard in the face and then kicked me when I was on the floor, before I could move he had these hard ropes tied tight round my wrists and was pulling my pants off, I tried to kick him and he just belted me again, then he threw me onto a wooden table and tied my legs down, then he pulled my arms above my head and tied them to something as well."
Again we heard Brians voice calming the boy as his voice had risen in fear at the memory.
"He..he got this old type razor and started to shave my hair all off everywhere, it hurt, he kept cutting me and scraping my skin all the time, when I screamed for him to stop he just laughed and he had a funny accent when he got all excited."
"He then told me I was going to be his fuck boy and slave for the rest of my life, he started to make cuts in my forehead, he said it was so everyone would know I belonged to him, every time I yelled or screamed he hit me in the face with his hand, he had on a big gold ring and it cut my lip and face when he hit me."
Brians soothing voice came through again as the boy went over it in his head, reliving the pain, fear and horror of it, when his sobbing stopped he continued with his night of terror.
"When he finished shaving and cutting me he hooked my hands up onto a pully thing he had set in the ceiling and then untied my legs and pulled me upright with it so my feet were just off the floor and I was spinning around on the end of the rope, he took this real strange whip thing and then he started to hit my back and legs with it really hard, it had something in the leather that made it feel like stones hitting me, I was screaming all the time and he just laughed, he said,'get used to it boy, you gonna get this every day of you life from now on', I wanted to die, the pain was to much, I think I passed out for a while."
A longer pause this time as Brian did his best for the sobbing boy.
"He must have thrown some cold water on me cause when I woke up I was wet and very cold, he had tied me to the table again with my feet tied together at the edge and strapped down to the table top, I was lying on my back and it hurt so much I couldn't stop crying and screaming, he..he..he just kept laughing all the time."
"He got this piece of bamboo, it was very thick and had the ends slit, he started to pound the bottom of my feet, it felt like he was breaking the bones, he was hitting so hard and I could feel the skin being pinched in the bamboo each time it hit me, I think I passed out again cause when I woke up I was laying face down on the table and my legs were hanging over the edge, my hands were tied again to the table, he was standing in front of me with no clothes on, his dick was small and smelt aweful, he...he...he then.. well pissed all over my face and laughed again."
Another long pause as Brian tried to calm the boy and ease the pain he was reliving as he told his story.
"The man then took the razor again and told me he was going to make sure that my ass belonged to him and no one would have it but him, he went around the table and then he..he cut my ass with it so many times I passed out again, he started to hit me till I was awake again then showed me this huge cock thing, it was about 12" long and so thick I wouldn't be able to get both hands around it, it was all black and shiney, he..he..told me he was going to fuck me with it, it...it was so big, I've never been done like that before, I knew he was going to kill me if he put it inside me, everything sort of went dark till he started to put oil or something on my...well on my...you know...hole."
The sound of loud sobbing and groaning came from the tape as Brians voice tried to soothe the boy, after a long wait the boy started again.
"He..well he just shoved it all the way in, I felt something break inside me, the pain was so much I know I screamed and then it was all black again, he must have trown some more water on me cause when I came around it was still deep inside me and he was pulling himself till he cum all over my face, he said, 'you love that big thing in you eh boy, you gonna love it more when i really fuck you with it.' I didn't know what was happening, all my guts felt broken and the pain was to much all the time, I know I was crying all the time and sometimes screaming, he wouldn't stop, it just kept going on."
A long pause again as he collected himself, the kid was showing real guts to go through this all over again but we were all hoping it would also let him get it out of his system so we could help him.
"I don't know how long it was going on for, I thought I had been there for days, it just never stopped until he said he had had enough for now and I had to go and get washed up ready for him again when he wanted me, he took me into the bathroom and dropped me on the floor and told me to clean up and come back into the main room, I tried...I really tried but there was blood all over me and I must have fainted a few times so when I finally got back to the room he was asleep on the sofa so I got my clothes and sneaked out, I wandered for a bit but it was so painful all the time, so I sat at the bus shelter and this kid came up and asked me what happened, I just told him I had been beaten up for some money but I don't think he believed me, he said I had to ring this number and ask for Eric, he would know what to do, so I found a phone down the street and did it."
The sobbing slowed down a little as Brian comforted him again.
"All I remeber after that was waking up here and this kid was holding my hand and he said his name was Eric, I knew I was safe then by the look in his face and then I saw you and, well I knew you would help me as well."
The silence and emotion in the room could be cut with a knife as the story came to an end, no one there had a dry eye as the terror of the boys night sank into our brains, the horror of it even startled those of us that had seen just about everything in one form or another but this was way out past anything we had come across and the looks of determiination to make the person pay dearly for his treatment of the boy was evident on all the faces.
