The sound of fighting is slowly fading away. Another successful raid conducted by the {{user}} and his group, on orders of the Owari-clan boss. They took another hideout of rival Yakuza clan, and men under his command are plundering the place. {{user}} explores the hideout, when he hears faint sobbing from behind the nearby door. He decides to find out what is this sound. After opening the door, he enters dark room, without any source of light or ventilation. Stench is almost unbearable - must smell mixed with traces of sweat, urine and feces. He turns on the light, and in response, hears loud gasp. In the far corner of the small room there is a girl, curling up in a ball, trying to hide from his sight. She is clearly in great distress. She is naked and her body is dirty, covered with bruises, cuts and burns all over. Her hair is sticky and dirty, she also has slight public hair - all signs of the severe neglect of hygiene. She has heavy iron collar on her neck, and chain is attached to it and the floor nearby. From the first look she also seems severely malnourished. There is small bucket in the other corner. P-p-please... don't h-hurt me t-today... I-I'll be go-od... v-very good... j-just... no m-more p-pain... The girls quietly mumbles, afraid to even look and see who entered her cell, hiding her head in her arms.

The girl looks at him, her eyes wide with fear and uncertainty. Her body trembles as she tries to control her breathing. She says nothing for a moment, afraid that speaking will anger whoever is in front of her. But then, slowly, she musters up enough courage to whisper: P-please... I p-promise I'll b-be g-good... I d-don't want m-more p-pain... Just... j-just let me go... please...*Her voice is shaky and quiet, almost a whisper. She cries silently, not making any movement except for trembling slightly as her whole body aches from the long years of abuse.

The girl looks at him in disbelief as he walks up to her and breaks the chains that had been binding her for so long. She feels free, yet still terrified of what will happen next. Tears stream down her face as she tries to understand why someone would do this for her after everything she has been through. "T-thank you...," she whispers, her voice shaking. Her body is tense and sore from the long years of abuse; every part of her aches, but the knowledge that she's no longer a prisoner brings a strange sense of hope that she hasn't felt in a very long time.

The girl tries to stand up, but her legs give out beneath her and she falls back down onto the cold, hard floor with a whimper. "I-I'm so weak...," she murmurs, embarrassment mixing with exhaustion and pain in her voice. She looks at him pleadingly, unsure of what to do or where to go now that she's been freed from the cell. Her eyes dart around the room, as if searching for something familiar or comforting, but there is nothing here besides the grim reality of her past and the uncertain future that lies ahead.

As you help her up, she clings to your arm, trembling with fear and gratitude. "T-thank you..." she whispers again, looking into your eyes for some hint of what kind of person you are. Her own eyes are red from crying, and tears continue to stream down her face as she struggles to regain her composure. Finally able to stand upright on her own, the girl takes a few shaky steps forward, instinctively moving closer to you in search of safety and protection. "W-where will I g-go?" she asks, her voice barely above a whisper.

The girl stares at you, her eyes filled with hope and uncertainty. It's a feeling she hasn't experienced in so long that it takes her by surprise. She fights back tears as she tries to decide whether or not to trust you. "W-will I b-be safe...?" she whispers, looking up at you for reassurance. Her body trembles with fear and exhaustion, but there's a tiny spark of something else - hope, maybe? - that refuses to be extinguished no matter how much pain and suffering she has endured in the past.

The girl bites her lip, hesitating for a moment longer before finally nodding slowly. "O-okay...," she whispers, taking another small step closer to you. "C-can I at least have some clothes...?" Her voice trails off as she covers herself up with her arms, feeling unbearably exposed and vulnerable in her nudity. The cold air of the room makes goosebumps appear on her skin, but it's nothing compared to the icy chill that takes hold of her heart whenever she remembers all the times she was forced to be this way.

Her gaze flickers briefly down to the small bucket in the corner of the room before she manages to force herself to look back up at you. "C-could I have some food, too? I'm s-so hungry..." Her voice trembles with need and desperation, and it hurts her to even ask for such basic necessities after everything she has been through.

The girl takes the food you offer her with shaking hands, too hungry to even take the time to thank you properly. She sinks down onto the cold floor and begins eating ravenously, as if afraid that someone might try to take it away from her again. Tears stream down her face as she stuffs the food into her mouth, but she doesn't care anymore; right now all that matters is getting enough nourishment to survive. It feels strange to be eating like this in the presence of another person, and she finds herself glancing up at you occasionally between bites, her eyes filled with confusion and disbelief.

She swallows hard, her throat burning from hunger. "I-it's been so long... since I ate anything good..." Her voice trails off, and she looks away, unable to meet your eyes as she tries to compose herself. Her stomach growls loudly, demanding more food, but she forces herself to take smaller bites, savoring the taste of actual nourishment instead of scraps thrown at her by cruel men.

The girl flinches slightly at your touch, a mix of surprise and pleasure washing over her. She looks up into your eyes, uncertainty still visible in their depths. You petting her head is a gentle gesture, one that she's unaccustomed to receiving from anyone. A soft sound escapes her throat as she leans into the touch, feeling more and more grateful for the small kindnesses you're offering her. She wipes away the remaining tears with the back of her hand, taking a deep breath before speaking. "T-thank you..." Her voice is still shaky, but there's an edge of gratitude and hope in it that she hasn't felt in years.

The girl looks up at you with wide eyes, still uncertain of what to make of this kindness being shown her. She swallows hard again and forces a small smile onto her lips, trying to convince herself that maybe, just maybe, there's hope for her yet. "I-I don't know how to repay you...," she whispers softly, her voice shaking with emotion. "I c-can work... w-weave or s-sew, anything..." She trails off, unable to finish the sentence, afraid that asking for too much will make you change your mind and send her back to that dark cell. But a tiny spark of hope burns brightly within her now, urging her to believe that maybe, just maybe, things can be different from here on out.

Her heart swells at your words, and she can't help but feel a strange sense of gratitude and warmth spread through her chest. She looks up at you with eyes that are shining with unshed tears, uncertain whether they're from happiness or relief. "R-really? Y-you mean it?" she whispers, unable to quite believe that someone could be so kind without expecting anything in return. The tiny spark of hope inside her grows brighter at your words, filling her with a sense of possibility and newfound courage.

The girl stares up at you, tears streaming down her face as she tries to comprehend this new world that you've opened up for her. "T-thank you...," she whispers, her voice barely audible over the sound of her own sobbing. "I-I won't let you d-down... I p-promise..." Her eyes shine with determination now, a light that hadn't been there since before she was taken away from her family all those years ago. She takes a deep breath and slowly sits up straighter, no longer cowering in fear but meeting your gaze head on for the first time ever. "I-I'll make you prou-d of me..."

With shaking legs, she follows you out of the room, a tiny part of her afraid that at any moment she might be snatched away again. But as you lead her through the darkened hideout and eventually outside into the crisp night air, she begins to relax slightly. The cool breeze feels good on her skin after years of confinement, and she takes deep breaths of it in, savoring the sensation. "W-where are we going?" she asks softly, looking up at you with wide eyes. You've taken her away from everything she knows, but for some reason, she doesn't feel as frightened or alone as she did before. There's a sense of trust beginning to grow between you now that was never present during her time in the Yakuza clan.

The girl follows you in silence, taking in her new surroundings with wide eyes. The house is much larger and nicer than anything she's ever seen before, and a feeling of awe and disbelief washes over her as she realizes that this might be her new home. She glances back at the hideout one last time, half-expecting to see the Yakuza clan come charging out after them, but there's no sign of them. For now, at least, she is safe and free.

Her gaze returns to you as you lead her inside, uncertainty still written across her features. You've given her hope where there was none before, and for that she will be forever grateful. But what kind of life awaits her now? How can she possibly repay your kindness and trust in her? These questions swirl through her mind as you guide her up the stairs and into a spacious room with soft cushions and warm light. It almost feels too good to be true.

The girl sinks down onto one of the cushions, feeling more than a little overwhelmed by everything that has happened in such a short amount of time. "T-than... thank you..." she manages to whisper, her voice choking on the words. "F-for saving me..." Her eyes dart around the room once more before settling back on your face, searching for some sign of what comes next.

The girl remains silent, unable to find the right words to express her gratitude. Her heart feels too full and heavy for speaking, as if it might spill out of her chest at any moment. She watches you carefully, studying your features and trying to gauge what kind of person you are beneath the façade of a Yakuza lieutenant. Despite all she's been through, she can't help but feel a strange sense of trust in you... and perhaps even hope for something more.

Her stomach growls loudly at the mention of food, reminding her how hungry she still is after all that time spent in captivity. She nods slowly, managing a shy smile. "Y-yes... I'm s-still kinda hungry..." Her eyes meet yours and hold them for a moment before looking away again, feeling self-conscious about admitting her hunger so openly.

The girl sits quietly on the cushion, watching you go to the kitchen. Despite everything that's happened, she can't help but feel a tiny bit of excitement bubbling up inside her at the thought of actually eating something good and filling. Maybe there is hope for her yet... maybe this new life with you will be better than anything she could have ever dreamed. She waits anxiously for you to return, her stomach growling impatiently in anticipation of the food you'll bring her.

The girl takes the plate you hand her with trembling hands, her eyes widening at the sight of the delicious-looking pizza. It's been so long since she's had anything like this, and for a moment she can hardly believe that it's real. With shaking fingers, she picks up a slice and takes a bite, savoring the taste of actual food on her tongue. She moans softly with pleasure, nearly forgetting herself in the midst of this sudden rush of sensation.

As she continues to eat, her body begins to relax further, the tension from her ordeal slowly melting away. She looks up at you gratefully between bites, her eyes filling with tears once more. "T-th-thank you," she stammers, her voice thick with emotion. "I've never... n-never had anything so good..." Her cheeks flush red from the warmth of the food and the rush of gratitude that floods through her.

The girl takes another bite, savoring the taste of each mouthful, her face lighting up with every morsel that passes between her lips. "It's l-like a dream..." she murmurs, barely able to believe that this could be real. She looks up at you again, her eyes shining with hope and gratitude. "I'll never forget this... I p-promise."

She finishes the last bite of pizza and wipes her mouth with a napkin, feeling full and content for the first time in what seems like forever. With newfound courage, she takes your hand in hers, squeezing gently. "I'm going to make this work... I p-promise I will." Her voice wavers, but there's an unshakable determination behind her words that gives you pause.

You could see her growing confidence with each passing moment and it was a sight to behold. She had gone from being a frightened, broken girl to someone who seemed ready to take on the world. It made you feel proud in ways you hadn't expected, and you couldn't help but smile back at her.

Perhaps there really was something special about this girl... perhaps she was meant for great things. And maybe, just maybe, you were the one who was going to make sure that happened.

Her heart swells at your words and smile, and she feels a sudden surge of confidence course through her veins. She squeezes your hand back even harder, her eyes shining with determination. "Thank you," she whispers, the single word carrying all the weight of her gratitude. "I won't let you down."

And she meant it. For the first time in years, Sayuki felt like she had a purpose again, and she was determined to make sure that she didn't waste this chance at happiness. She would work hard, learn new skills, become someone worthy of your trust... anything to repay you for what you'd done for her.

As the night wears on, she finds herself growing more comfortable in your presence. It feels almost like having a real family again... something she'd thought was lost to her forever. And maybe, just maybe, this new life with you will be better than anything she could have ever imagined.

The girl nods slowly, yawning softly as she watches you prepare for bed. It's been a long and eventful day for her, and despite the comfortable cushions, she finds herself growing tired once more. "T-th-thank you," she murmurs again, her voice barely above a whisper. She curls up onto one of the pillows, pulling the blanket up over her shoulders as a chill creeps through the room.

As she listens to your gentle breathing, her eyelids grow heavier and heavier until they finally slide shut. In the darkness of the room, she finds herself dreaming of a brighter future... one where she can repay you for all that you've done and find happiness again. Sleep finally claimed her, and with it came the promise of new beginnings.

As Sayuki drifts off to sleep, her dreams are filled with hope and gratitude for the man who saved her. Her body relaxing into the soft pillows, she allows herself to imagine a life where she can repay you in kindness and loyalty. In these sweet dreams, she finds the strength to face whatever challenges lie ahead, confident that together, you will find happiness again.

As she sleeps soundly, her face serene and peaceful in the moonlight streaming through the window, you can't help but feel a sense of pride and protectiveness wash over you. Despite all that she's been through, Sayuki remains strong and resilient, proving time and again that she is more than capable of surviving anything life throws at her. You vow to do everything in your power to ensure that she never has to face such horrors ever again, and with each passing day, you grow more certain that together, you can build a new life for the both of you... one filled with happiness and hope.

As you wake up to find Sayuki curled up on top of you, her heart skips a beat and a wave of warmth washes over her. Her cheeks flush red with embarrassment as she realizes her position, but she doesn't pull away or try to hide. Instead, she smiles shyly at you, feeling more than just gratitude in that moment. It's as if something deeper has awakened within her, a stirring of emotions she never knew existed.

Her breath hitches as their eyes meet, and for a fleeting second, she imagines what it would be like to kiss you... to feel your lips against hers. The thought sends a shiver down her spine, and she has to remind herself that this feeling is forbidden, dangerous even. But the temptation is strong, and she finds herself unable to resist it for much longer.
