Caesar's Moon

Chapter 33: Chapter 32: Fractured part 1

The wind softly blew as Caesar and the thief stood and locked eyes with each other, both staring in silence until Caesar spoke.

"Well, are you? Are you Kaezan Aris?"

The thief’s body shook as he gritted his teeth. The faces of Gendo, Toma, Rin and Raizan replayed in his head but the one that lingered more was Akari as he recalled her twisted grin.

The thief’s breathing became ragged and he tilted his head down.

"I’m not going back." He whispered.

"Hm?" Caesar said as she tilted her head in confusion.

"I’m not going back to that hell hole they call a company nor that mental institution." The thief said, "I’m not going back to EBW or that asylum!"

"I take that as a yes. You are Kaezan Aris." Caesar said.

"I need to go." Kaezan said as he raised his head, "I need this gold. It’s the only way I’ll ever pay back the debt.

It’s the only way I’ll ever be free."

"Look, pal. I get where you are coming from, but I can’t let you walk out with that." Caesar said as she crossed her arms, "You just robbed a grave. On top of that, you broke an entry, that adds to another crime committed."

"I need this!" Kaezan said, "I need them all! Every gold, every yon note and rux coin that bastard has, I need all of them!

It’s not like he is doing anything with them. He is dead!"

"That’s more reason you shouldn’t rob the dead." Caesar replied, "That’s just wrong on different levels."

"Wrong? What is right and what is wrong?" Kaezan asked, "Was it right that I was setup by my ’friends’ into borrowing money from the Mizukais of all people?

Was it right that I was threatened into going to that porn company by that family?

Was it right that everyday while I was training in tough enough, I had to give my all to succeed not because I wanted to but because if I didn’t, that family will kill me? Enduring that hellish training of pain and humiliation just to get to the main roster, was it?

Was it right that that company does those shit in front of a live audience and camera?! Having your face shoved in places it shouldn’t be or them shoving their faces there and you have to reciprocate otherwise you’d have a higher chance of losing the match?!"

Kaezan clenched his fists and his breathing grew heavier.

"Was it right that the audience cheer for such crap? Was it right that Akari would place me in a humiliating gear to wrestle in that fucked up ring just for her twisted amusement?!

As I am right now, I don’t give a shit about what is right or wrong.

That place is fucked up! That entire family is fucked up! Akari is fucked in the head!"

"Hold on. You said your friends set you up... Does that include Balland?" Caesar asked.

Hearing that name, Kaezan stiffened.

"Balland...?" Kaezan whispered.

"Yeah. He said he was your friend. That he tried to help you but you seemed so scared and angry." Caesar said, "That you didn’t want to let anyone in.

Was he among the friends that set you up?"

Kaezan tilted his head down and frantically shifted it repeatedly from left to right as his breathing became ragged.

"No." Kaezan whispered.

Caesar stayed silent for a while as she watched Kaezan’s behavior before she spoke again.

"I understand your pain, but why don’t you return the gold and let me help you? I-"

"No." Kaezan cuts in as he shook his head.

"Kaezan..." Caesar called as she extended her arm forward, "Look, we can-"

"No!" Kaezan cuts as he stepped back while his body slightly shook, "No... No, no, no, no, no!"

Caesar stared at him for a moment and tried to speak again.

"Kaezan-"

"Shut up!" Kaezan interrupted again which caught Caesar off guard.

"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!!" Kaezan continued he placed his right palm on his temple while gritting his teeth as his eyes glowed under the veil.

Kaezan began to breathe maniacally as he suddenly had a recollection of his past in the Mizukai mansion.

At that time Akari who was sitting on a golden laced chair, wearing a black dress with baggy sleeves and black gloves, tilted her head and spoke.

"I have an idea. Our family is among the top sponsors of the ero-company Elite Battle Wrestling, so this might be an opportunity to make use of our status."

"I’ll prepare your entrance to the development centre." Akari continued as she smirked, "You will become an ero-wrestler.

That is your only bargaining chip. If you refuse, we’ll simply get our money back by harvesting your organs..."

" ’Every’ last one of them." Akari said as her irises glowed.

Another recollection takes place in a training center as Akari was about to walk out of the door with her bodyguards but she halted and looked over her shoulder.

"Oh, and one more thing: If you fail to make it to the main roster and became an ero-wrestler, then I will just have to dispose of you... Literally." Akari said with a smile.

Another scene replays as Akari stood with six bodyguards with her. One of the bodyguards on the left carried a briefcase and Akari smiled.

"Congratulations on becoming an ero-wrestler. Though you were almost at the bottom of the list, you still made it, which means you can finally start in repaying your debt." Akari said, "And what other way to show you are an ero-wrestler than for you to dress like one."

"Gentlemen." Akari said as she raised her index finger.

The bodyguard holding the briefcase walked towards a bench and placed it there.

He then opened it and brought a black midriff top with long sleeve fishnet.

The bodyguard handed over the top to another bodyguard to hold, went back to the briefcase and brought out a black tight trousers with three open patterns on the waist and a wide open pattern on the inner thighs section.

The bodyguard once again gave the trousers to another bodyguard, went back to the briefcase again and brought out a black pair of boots and a black choker with a silver gleaming Mizukai symbol on it.

"Tell me, aren’t they wonderful?" Akari asked with a smile, "Got my best tailors to work on it."

"Now, be a good boy and change right here in front of us or my guards will strip you and put the gear on you." Akari continued while smiling as she slightly titled her head and closed her eyes.

Currently, Kaezan stepped backwards a little as he was in mental agony, causing him to accidentally pull down his hoodie, showing his face along with his bronze skin, long black hair that faded into white tips, slanted back horns, blue irises and stubble round his face.

Kaezan dropped down on one knee and started breathing rapidly which led him to remember the time he was sitting in the ring, wearing the gear Akari forced on him while bleeding terribly.

Behind him knelt a fair skinned human woman with mutated purple irises and a long jet black hair that faded into purple tips.

The woman grabbed the clothed shaft of the exhausted Kaezan which led him to instinctively hold her wrist.

"No. Not again. Please not there-" Kaezan pleaded.

The woman quickly interrupted Kaezan by using her free hand to grab the back of his hair and deep-kiss him while stroking his clothed shaft for an ero-capture, bringing her battered opponent to weakly moan in her mouth.

Another recollection happened again as a fair skinned beastfolk woman having a long green hair that faded into pale green color.

The irises of the beastfolk were also green in color and she had pointy ears.

The woman grabbed both of Kaezan’s legs and spread them apart.

The dazed Kaezan weakly raised his right arm while the woman tilted her head as she was carrying a gaze of disgust.

In a blink of an eye, the woman then leaped and slammed her knee hard against his groin.

"OH!" Max and Reyna unanimously.

Kaezan instinctively sat up from the pain and grabbed his brutalized groin as he shook intensively in silence.

The final memory replayed in his head as he was terribly battered and on all fours, panting for air outside the ring while a fair skinned beastfolk woman with a very muscular physique grinned demonically behind him.

The woman was over seven foot tall, having a long blue messy hair, purple irises and a large blue fish tail.

The woman casually walked and stood in front of Kaezan to stare down before she grabbed a fistful of his hair.

"What is she planning to do here?!" Max asked as the female hauled Kaezan to his feet.

"I don’t know, but whatever Magoi has planned in mind, it’s usually not pretty!" Reyna replied.

The female beastfolk Magoi shoved her own head between Kaezan’s thighs and hoisted him upside down at her back while keeping his legs round her head.

Magoi then walked forward a little and halted for a moment.

Her grin become more disturbing and with no wasted time, she slammed Kaezan on the concrete ground which caused him to cough out blood while his eyes turned pupilless simultaneously.

"OH MY GOD!!!" Max and Reyna said in unison.

After the remembrance, Kaezan panted heavily while clutching his chest with one hand.

"D-damnit...! Damnit!" Kaezan said, "I’m not going back there. I’m not going back there!!"

Kaezan then lifted his head and gazed at Caesar which made her stiffen a little.

"Please..." Kaezan whispered as his face softened, "Let me go."

Caesar stayed silent for a moment and brought her head down.

"I’m sorry. I can’t." Caesar said.

"Please, just let me go!" Kaezan pleaded, "I need to be free! If I don’t go, they will either put me back into that asylum or that industry!

I can’t bear the thought of going back to any of them!"

"I understand, but -"

"Please!!" Kaezan interrupted, "You’re a Mizukai forced just like me! You should understand where I’m coming from! You should understand my pain!"

"And I do! I do understand your pain, but I can’t let you walk away with the gold!" Caesar said, "Even if you are willing to exclude the moral side, what about the legal side?

Are you considering how much trouble I’d even get into if I let you walk away with the stolen gold?!"

Kaezan stayed silent for a while with widened eyes and tilted his head down.

"You are a Mizukai forced... " Kaezan said, "What if...."

"What if I offer to split the gold with you?" Kaezan asked as he raised his head.

"What?" Caesar said as she was caught off guard.

"That’s right. I could tell you are burdened with a debt that is not your fault." Kaezan said, "The whole wealthy Mizukai-affiliate ero-wrestling thing is a lie to the public. There is more than enough gold my stepbrother has on him.

You take some, I take some. With them, we’d be able to pay the debt and walk away from this hell.

We’d no longer be under the Mizukais thumbs."

"We’d finally be free." Kaezan continued as Caesar’s finger twitched.

"We’d be able to live our lives in peace." Kaezan said as Caesar turned her face away in a conflicted manner.

Caesar stayed silent for a while and closed her eyes.

"So what say you? Do we have a deal?" Kaezan asked.

Caesar however still stayed quiet for a moment until she finally spoke.

"No."

"What?" Kaezan said in confusion.

"No. We don’t have a deal." Caesar said.

Kaezan’s eyes widened and veins pulsed round his face.

"Why?!" Kaezan asked, "Why are you refusing?! Don’t you want to be free? This is your only chance to step out of their hold, damnit!"

"I do want to be free. But still... There are some lines I can’t and won’t cross." Caesar replied, "There are still some level of lows I won’t stoop down to.

Once again, I’m sorry, but I can not allow you to walk away with them, and I won’t join you."

Kaezan began to breathe heavily as his anger was slowly rising.

"W-what the fuck is wrong with you?!" Kaezan asked, "I’m offering your one chance of escaping them and you are refusing it?!

Aren’t you a Mizukai forced? Do you enjoy staying with those bastards or was I wrong from the start to think you were coerced just like me?"

"I was coerced, and no, I do not enjoy staying with those bastards." Caesar answered, "However, there is one other thing you got wrong..."

"I do have a chance of escaping. I do have a chance of fighting back." Caesar continued as she shifted her gaze towards Kaezan, "Just not the one you are offering."

Caesar’s vision momentarily blurred and she saw that Kaezan’s head had become far bigger than his own body which made Caesar shake her own head just to set her vision back to normal.

"Huh?" Caesar said within in confusion.

Meanwhile Kaezan tilted his head down and gritted his teeth as the upper part of his face was overshadowed.

"I tried." Kaezan said, "Heavens knows that I tried. But you are being so difficult."

"If you insist on getting in my way, then I’ll run through you." Kaezan continued as he raised his head while his irises glowed.

"It seems this was always going to get physical." Caesar said, "Last chance: Drop the gold or get dropped.

We can do this the easy way or the EBW way. And since we are both ero-wrestlers..."

"You’d make a perfect prep partner for my upcoming match." Caesar said with a scowl as her irises glowed as well.
