from the edge (1x1 w/DarkMudkip)

She nodded as she ate, the food tasting like heaven compared to what Hakaku had been feeding her. “Please… don’t leave me alone..” She said softly, looking down at her food. “I won’t try to run, but please don’t leave me with that man again..”
 
Kaguya took the water happily, drinking it down quickly. She said a quiet thanks to Yoichi before finishing off all her food.
 
Kaguya nodded her head, stomach full for the first time in a long while. “Thank you very much.” She said softly, bowing her head to him.
 
Kaguya, though confined to her room, wasn’t locked inside. She was given a much needed bath, and her hair was attempted to be fixed by some of the kakushi. Most of it had to be cut off, leaving her with very little hair left.
 
Yoichi had told her that it wasn't so bad, he rather liked her with her hair short. It was odd, his kindness was vastly different in comparison to the kindness Douma showed her.
 
Yoichi’s compliments made having short hair much easier, made her not so insecure about her appearance. She was mostly escorted by a kakushi when allowed out of her room, but even so, she thought little of escaping. Yoichi gave her little reason to want to.
 
Kaguya had no more information to give about Douma, only withholding two pieces of information; that she knew Douma was a demon for some time now, and who he was going to see-at least on one occasion.
 
It wasn’t easy on her mind, being hurt, only to be taken care of by the same people who were hurting her. Still, she clung to Yoichi, he was the only one advocating for her, treating her kindly and keeping her the safest.
 
He always cleaned her wounds, whether it was the old ones that reopened or new ones, he always made sure she was cared for. He brought her real food and tea, anything she wanted.
 
He could see the torture was taking a toll on her- and she still was claiming to know nothing else. Perhaps she truly didn’t know anymore.
 
"She could possibly know nothing more, Hakaku." Yoichi said quietly to the other hashira. Hakaku didn't seem to buy it, however.
"The pet of a Moon that knows nothing? I doubt it."
 
Kaguya lay crumpled on the ground, fingers bleeding from him removing her fingernails, fighting her tears as she cried quietly.
 
"You're going to kill her." Yoichi stated. Hakaku didn't bat an eye.
"So be it." He replied before he left. Yoichi scowled hatefully before moving to Kaguya.
 
Kaguya flinched when Yoichi came closer, holding her hands to her chest, not wanting anyone to touch them.
 
It took her a moment, but she nodded, slowly handing out her trembling hands. “Please make him stop..!” She pleaded. “I don’t know anything more..!”
 
He frowned heavily before he went to work. What could he do? He would get in trouble for stopping her interrogation. "I'm not sure I can make him stop..."
 
Kaguya shook her head. “But why..?” She croaked. “If I’ve told you all I know, what good will more torture do..?”
