Why this must be read:
Normally, when I think of Channel D's stories I think of a strong Napoleon and a pony-tailed Illya and the focus is on the two men starting a relationship. This tale is very different. The beginning starts with Illya being tortured while Napoleon is forced to watch, anger building up in him like an internal volcano. Then it moves into a mesmerizing description of Illya's reaction to the torture, his resulting confusion and Napoleon's attempt to bring him back to reality.
And of course, it all turns out well.
"Stop!" Illya cried out suddenly, his face twisted in horror. "Stop - no don't don't - Napoleon! Help ... please help me!" He screamed again, and Buckner shook his head in feigned wonder.
"Mr. Solo. Are you paying attention? He is begging you to rescue him and you could, with a word."
Napoleon only stared at him stonily. Soon someone would make a mistake. Someone always did. It didn't have to be a big mistake, just a moment of inattention, or indecision, and then he would move. He would unleash this fury that he was currently banking, unleash it and oh, how they would pay.
