He couldn't tell how long has it been since his nightmare had begun. 2 days or 2 weeks, he didn't know. All that was real to him was the cold and pain that surrounded his body.

He had only stayed after school for some tutoring and as he walked home a van pulled over, the next thing he knew was that he was in a dark room with two other men in it.

He could hear the men talking amongst each other.

"Why did we even kidnap this brat?"

"He is the youngest son of the chief of police."

"An Uchiha? So are we going to ask for money or what?"

"No. we are going to have some fun with him, and then we are going to dump him in some alley."

"We went through all this trouble for that! We could have gotten a prostitute in some corner."

"You don't get it. His damn father threw me in jail for 4 years and I'm going to pay him back with his son."

"Oh I get it now."

"Good. Now go get the video camera. I want him to know it was me the one that tortured his son."

And that's how his nightmare began. Horrible things were done to him. He didn't know if he would rather die than take this torture any longer. He kept hoping his father would find him but he never came.

It was chaotic in the police station. People were running around trying to find anything on the son of the chief.

"Has there been any phone calls yet?" a desperate father asked.

"No sir. It has been over 24 hours. I don't think anyone is going to call." Only the second in command and one of the chief's closest friends, Shisui, dared to tell him the truth.

"Well if he wasn't kidnap, then were in hell is my son!" as the chief of the police, Fugaku had many enemies that wanted to hurt him. He knew one of his enemies had taken his son.

"I think you should go home to your family and if we find something I'll call you right away." Shisui said pulling Fugaku to the side.

"Has anyone called? Is my baby fine? When will he be home?" Mikoto couldn't stop asking question since Fugaku got home

"I'm sorry. We haven't heard anything so far." Fugaku couldn't help but sound defeated

"It has been four days. Who knows what might have happened to him by now?" Mikoto started to cry. Fugaku quickly was by her side, trying to make her feel better. He had seen what they do to kids who were kidnap. They are traumatized forever. He didn't want to think of all the awful things that could be happening to his son at the moment.

Itachi watched from the stairs as his parents tried to console themselves. He still couldn't believe his baby brother was missing. He was only 16. He could still remember when he had a close call when some of his father's enemies had tried to kill him just to get back at his father. But now that his brother the one in danger, he could feel his heart tear apart. He just prayed that they would find him soon.

The whole police department had been working for the last four days non-stop. Sasuke was Shisui little cousin and he could just imagine how Itachi must have been feeling. Since they were little, Itachi had always looked after Sasuke.

"Boss, don't you think that there is a possibility that he might be… dead." Shisui knew damn well that that was a possibility but he didn't want to give up just yet.

"We'll keep looking until tomorrow. If there isn't any trail that we could follow at all, then we'll just have to conclude that he is." He said those words as if he had needles in his mouth. He didn't want to give up but they already done everything they could.

He just sat at his desk feeling incompetent. All of the sudden he felt a feeling that he hadn't felt in years, he felt like crying. He knew he couldn't do it in front of the whole department, even if they did understand.

It was around 11pm when Shisui was going to tell them that they could go home. At this point, it was clear to everyone that they weren't going to find him. He now had to go tell the chief that they couldn't find his youngest son and that he might be dead.

Then he heard commotion coming from the other room. He got up when one of the officers in charge of monitoring the phone calls, comes in out of breath.

"Sir, we received a phone call from a man that said that he was walking his dogs and one of them ran down an alley. When he caught up with it, the dog was sniffing at something. When he got a better look at it, he said it was a kid, probably 16, covered in blood and half naked." Shisui's heart skipped a beat when he heard that. There was a chance that it was Sasuke.

"I'll call the chief. You make your way down there."

Fugaku stared at the glass of whiskey in front of his. He had poured it over half an hour ago and he still hadn't drunk it. He hadn't had a drop of alcohol in the last two years. The last time he had, it was because his best friend and second in command at that time had been killed by some drug dealers. He had checked into a hotel and almost drank himself to death. Luckily Shisui had been there to stop him, then he realized the selfish decision he had made. He still had a family to look after and with time the hurt went away. But now that his own son was the one that could be dead, he didn't know if he was strong enough this time to stop. That's why he hadn't touched the glass of whiskey yet. He still had his wife and older son but the thought of losing Sasuke hurt too much. Sasuke was always so innocent, so naïve.

All of the sudden his heard his phone ring. He quickly picked it up.

"Boss, I think we might have found Sasuke. I'll send you the address."
