Archer lounged in his special chair in Hotaru's room. He'd been suspecting Hotaru's friends would be making an attempt rescue her at some point. He was a bit surprised they hadn't already tried.
He looked down at the semi-conscious girl in his lap and grinned. He smoothed back her disarrayed cut hair. She was in a state where she was aware of everything but didn't have the chance to move. This way she would be able to see her precious Jack while he killed him. The perfect solution.
He was able to see from the few cameras he'd set up the girl, Tekka, snooping around recently. When the monitors went off again, he put the kids into action and set up Hotaru.
He grinned down at the red head in his lap and winked. "Don't worry darling, I'll be gentle with him." he teased with a wicked grin. He rubbed one of the hickeys and felt a swell of pride.
Now was the time to wait. He was going to make Jack cry, then he'd kill him.

Jack was making a beeline for the master bedroom. That was where the Kuma and Ruru were, he just knew it! This bastard had been messing with his head from stage one and there was no way that the guy wasn't planning on doing something awful and was doing it in the most cliche spot because as far as Jack could tell he had a thing for dramatic effect.
Hence why he had backup.
Mostly to keep himself from killing Archer, or at least that was what he told himself as he flung open the door to the room.

It was easy for Eva to keep up with Jack, which was good because she wasn't giving her brother-in-law even ONE chance to fight without her there to help. He wasn't going to be able to think straight, she KNEW it.
When she entered the room with Jack she started to wonder if she would be able to keep her cool either.
Hotaru's eyes shifted from Archer, to the door when she heard it slam open. Those faces... oh god, please don't let her be dreaming again. She couldn't take it anymore, all the dreams where she was rescued and safe at home, only to wake up to THIS nightmare.
Despite her inability to move the redhead was trembling. She'd been in this state while they had dressed her up and even put make up on her, and when he started BITING her! She wanted to scream so bad but she couldn't 'cause of whatever he'd done to her. Though she realized if she tried hard enough she could slip out a word at a time when she looked over at the green-eyed Ookami across the room. "Jack..." It was barely a whisper, but it was all she could get herself to say. He was her only hope right now, if he was real...

Archer was in the middle of brushing Hotaru's hickeys lightly when the two busted through the door. He looked up with an amused smile. "How great of you to join us. Jack, last I saw you I saved your life from my son. Now here you are." he looked down at Hotaru when she called out his name near silently. "Shhh darling. We all know who he is." he said with a chuckle. "You don't have to extenuate yourself my dear."
Archer looked back up at the two intruders. "Welcome to my humble abode. I'm sorry Hotaru here isn't up to much, but she's had a long and strenuous night." he grinned and winked down at the girl in his lap. He traced her jaw with his finger and placed his other hand on her stomach where a rather large knife was resting. He also had his favorite lighter, just in case.

Jack stood, nearly frozen with rage, as Archer talked. What words were coming out he paid no heed, because finally FINALLY he could see Ruru. And he did NOT like what he was seeing. Her eyes were glazed over, with drugs or terror he couldn't tell, and she was curled up in the Kuma's lap with hickies all over her neck.
When she spoke, though, then his heart shattered. "Ruru..." He breathed out in return. He couldn't hear her, but he saw her lips move, and he knew what she was trying to say.
Then he lunged. Blindly, with no thoughts of a plan. He just wanted to BREAK the Kuma's NECK!!

Eva was prepared and grabbed Jack from the back of his shirt the second he lunged. She gave him a hard yank and pulled him back. "This is exactly was I was talking about!" she snapped at him, keeping her voice hushed enough so only Jack could hear. "Use your eyes, he's got a knife sitting on her, one wrong move from you and that could have ended up in her stomach dammit!" She yanked him a little harder, still keeping a firm grip on him. "We've gotta get her off of him first, then you can have a go at him."
Hotaru's eyes widen for a short second as a tear trailed its way down her cheek. That couldn't be her Jackie, it wasn't! Her Jack was nice and funny and loving and this one was so SCARY! She had to be dreaming right now, she HAD to be!!

Archer's eyebrows rose with amusement at Jack's rash actions. He chuckled and tapped the knife taunting the two. He looked back down at the girl in his arms and whipped away the tear that had fallen. "It's alright darling, I won't let him get you." he cooed, his eyes darting up to taunt Jack. He pressed a soft kiss to the side of Hotaru's cheek that was turned his way.
With a triumphant expression, he looked at the two. "What do you plan to do now Jack? I've already got your girl and believe me... she's a real great catch." his eyes flicked to the bed suggestively. "She seems so innocent, but don't let looks deceive you." he trailed his finger over the hickeys that marked her neck and collarbones. "I'm sorry to say but now that I've had my fill of her... I'd rather like to keep her."

Jack's mind whirled, looking for a solution to this mess. If he made one wrong move Hotaru was dead, and it looked like he wasn't doing anything to help by going berzerk. He took a deep breath and did his best to calm down. 'Use your brain, Jack!' He thought to himself. "So are you just gonna sit there like a coward?" He challenged. "Or are you going to fight like a man!?" He couldn't win in a fight against Archer... but he was fast enough that he might be able to buy some time for Eva to get Ruru out and away...

Archer's eyes darkened with anger and repulsion. He scoffed and rolled his eyes at Jack. "I'm just enjoying however long I have with my lovely bride here." he said looking down at the girl and turning her face towards their guests, showing off more of the hickeys. "Besides I'm no coward. Coward and I don't even go in the same sentence together." he stated with a dark glare.
"Would you two like to know what happened to our dear Hotaru?" he asked smiling, his eyes bright with excitement.

Eva slowly released her hold on Jack's shirt, keeping her eyes on the Kuma the whole time. "What did you do to her?" she growled out through clenched teeth. The sooner they got him to finish whatever he was saying the sooner he'd put Hotaru down and fight.

Archer chuckled at the blonde's angry reply. "Well, she was mine for a while. Most of the time actually. I love her greatest fear..." he said dragging out the last line with a near groan. "Her fear or fire and my obsession with it, the best combination ever. I had a very good time pushing her to her limits." he growled gazing down at the girl with a hungry expression.

Jack's hands twitched. "No..." He murmured. How COULD he!? How could- How could ANYONE want to use Hotaru's greatest fear against her!? Apparently more people than he had wanted to think possible... He doubted the other lunatics had protested the use of fire.

Archer stroked Hotaru's burns below the knife he held. "Why yes." he said cockily, grinning like he'd won a prize. "Hana was very forthcoming with information. I don't doubt that Hotaru told you about an incident that happened in the Allure before I took my prize. Well, that was me." he stated simply. "I was able to feel her even while she was yours, but then we got a hold of her and now... she's mine." He enunciated the last two words while glaring at Jack.
"The first few nights, she cried and refused to eat or do anything. But I can be very, very persuasive and soon after our family was complete. We were even trying to add one to the family."

Eva's eyes widen for a second before setting them back into an icy glare. "What do ya mean... 'add one'?" He BETTER not of meant what she was thinking. Slowly but surely the blond felt her blood start to boil more and more. She told herself she'd be calm and handle this with a cool head if Jack couldn't, but she didn't realized just how much of a fucking ASS this guy was!!

Archer smiled and raised his eyebrow. "What does it sound like?" he asked lowly, flirtatiously even. He traced a random pattern on Hotaru's neck and leaned in to give it another nibble. "She tastes fucking fantastic." he added with a groan, grinning and looking up at his guests as he proceeded to add another mark to her collarbone.
