42 Chapter 41: A Path of Blood

Shortly after leaving the Kudo mansion, Sonoko realizes something awaken inside of her, as her thought process begins to evolve. Feeling her now getting wet, she wants to wipe it away hit the back of her hand, only to find it bloodied.

Black blood starts coming not only out of her nose but also her eyes, ears and mouth, muscles, as the blood paints the white snow scarlet, she collapses face first into a cool snow hill at the side of the road. Having spasms all over her body, Sonoko just lies there, waiting for her heart to stop.

As her banged up emotional psyche slowly dies away, there cold, rational part of it gets an insane boost, as the effects of the unfinished APTX 5001 kick in. Like her, the thought process turns from emotional and death seeking to rational and died fighting. As her traumatized and fucked up by reality personality gets seemingly overwritten, Sonoko unconsciously triggers her newly acquired ability.

Clinging to life and the rationalized though, of revenge against her tormentors, she just vanishes out of the snow hill. Finding herself in a warm comfortable bed the next second, Sonoko takes out the coin pendant on the red leather strap she got from Conan. Only now by rationally evaluating the man/ the boy that is Conan Casanova, does her brain register the absurdity of the whole situation.

Spending half an hour just reviewing what she knows from her stay at the mansion, Sonoko is able to draw a view conclusions. The first being the existence of superpowers. The second being Conan's obvious true identity as Shinichi Kudo. The third being the rational advantage of being part of a harem. The third conclusion is it that prompts Sonoko to put on the pendant, as she decides that after everything is done, she would join her sisters.

Lying on her back like that, still fully closed, Sonoko returns from her realm of thoughts, as her belly starts to growl. Concluding that the use of her ability consumes an insane amount of calories, she decides to leave her room. Seeing that she teleported herself right out of the snow and into her room in the Suzuki Estate.

Leaving her room, her now deeply rational mind analyses her family situation. Sonoko hadn't seen her mother Tomoko or sister Ayako ever since their family company had gone downhill and she started her blackmailing scam. Going downstairs she finds her father Shiro Suzuki pale as a ghost with black bags hanging underneath his eyes sitting in the living room, emptying a bottle of sake.

Looking at her father in disgust, some other things seem to unravel right in front of her eyes, as insignificant comments and gestures add up to a scary bigger picture. Stopping her father from drinking she asks him. ''Where are Ayako and mom?''

''How the hell should I know?'' She hears her drunk father Shiro tell her.

Trying to figure out what had happened to her mother and sister, Sonoko comes up empty, so she asks again. ''Where are Tomoko and Ayako?''

Only getting an empty sake bottle thrown in her direction as an answer, she decides to use a more forceful approach. Teleporting herself directly into her father's study and in front of the large family portrait, she slides it sideways, revealing what is hidden behind. As here thoughts become increasingly rational and logic based, using her ability comes naturally to her.

Now facing the polished steel of a 1m×1m safe door, Sonoko swiftly inputs the security code and with a click the door opens. Pulling the polished steel aside, she ignores the stacks of documents filling it in favor of a handgun. Checking the weapon Sonoko remembers her father's obsession with James Bond, as the handgun is a Walter PPK.

Gun loaded, he teleports back into the living room. Pressing the barrel against the father's windpipe she once again asks. ''Where are they?''

Taking note of her father's fearful expression, but feeling nothing but a sliver of disgust, she is happy to hear him talk. ''I told you the truth! I really don't know!''

''I guess you really don't know where they currently are...'' Sonoko says, seeing a flicker if guilty release flicker in the man's eyes. ''... But that doesn't mean that you don't know where they were when they vanished.''

Motivating her father to not hide behind words, she simply shoots into her father's thigh. Screaming Shiro says. ''God Jesus, I am dying her how could you do this!''

Sounding like a robot, cold and devoid of emotions, Sonoko asks. ''What have you done to them? Answer in the next bullet might kill you?!''

Pressing on his wound, while sweating buckets, the great Shiro Suzuki finally confesses. ''Okay, okay! Please don't shoot me! Dear Good that hurts...'' Feeling the cold steel touch his forehead. ''... I handed them over as insurance. Nothing bad happens to them. They are just undergoing some training!''

Remembering her very own 'Training Sessions' Sonokos rational mind is unstable, pressing the cold steel hard at her father's forehead she asks. ''To whom did you give them? Who is 'Training' Tomoko and Ayako?''

Seeing the crazy shine in his daughter's eyes, Shiro trembling and shaking tell her. ''It's Sasuke Honda... They are with the Hondas.''

Remembering Sasuke Honda as one of her 'Masters' with the last to psychologically torture her, Sonoko instantly knows the first target of her revenge.

Having five bullets remaining in her gun, Ai focusses on Sasuke Honda's office in the Honda Towers, while triggering her ability.

Sasuke Honda, heir to the Honda empire is publicly acknowledged as a virtuous business genius. As to be expected from the heir of one of the prominent families, in his late thirties, he is already 'happily' married and having three kids. That is what the public sees and wants to believe. The truth, however, is less flattering, because Sasuke Honda has one hobby the public is not aware of.

The business genius loves to 'train' woman into obedient and submissive toys for the elite. Having started this hobby of his all the way back in college, more than a hundred woman have to be re-educated by him. His own wife who by now has given birth three times already was one of the first to be trained.

Thanks to his deep financial ties to both politics and the organization as a wealthy sponsor Sasuke he is essentially untouchable until today.

Sitting in his office, watching one of his education sessions with a girl the organization provided him with, Sasuke Honda is shocked and surprised as suddenly cold steel is pressed against his neck.

''What happened to Tomoko and Ayako Suzuki?'' Asks him a cold female voice.

Having teleported directly into his office, Sonoko is not really surprised, that the man seems to do what he did to her his hobby. Having lost most of her emotions to logic, she neither gets angry or vengeful and just wants to get her mother and sister back.

Keeping his cool and staying all businessman, Mr. Honda says, while slowly turning around. ''I don't know what you are talking about.''

Knowing that the man is lying, Sonoko hits him with the butt of her gun, drawing first blood.

''You crazy bitch! That was my face!'' Screams and rages Sasuke, not aware that his life is already in the hands of his attacker. Looking up and into Sonokos face, the man at first doesn't recognize her, but slowly the memory of fucking her creeps in. ''Bunny is that you?''

Hating the nickname 'Bunny' because that is the name her tormentors gave her as they raped and trained her over and over again, Sonoko asks the man once again. ''Where are they?''

Smiling creepy and evil, Honda tells her. ''They are not with me any more,... Bunny. After they were aimed and became obedient little bitches, I gave them away for auction... Why don't you put down that gun and...''

''BANG!'' Sonoko pulls the trigger and shoots the man point blank, his brain matter sprayed all over the monitors displaying his 'hobby'. Taking with her the mans cellphone to later hack it, Sonoko teleports away, leaving only the dead behind in his office.
