Rated M.

Proshipping.

This story is not really on the time line or it is definitely after season 4. Sorry for the misleading start of this story. I also changed the title so it is more of a mystery in mind.

Summary: Zane has finally dismissed Shroud as his manger, but 2 weeks later he gets a sceptical note saying something that even our cold hearted friend thinks is low.

He goes somewhere he knows all too well and stuff goes down straight as he walks through the door. What happens find out.

(Zane's pov)

I woke up on this fine morning hoping that last night wasn't a dream. I carefully reach out of my warm and safe bed over to my black hard wood night stand upon which is holding my phone. As I finally get to my phone I pick it up and gradually turn it on but there is nothing new. No new text, new post,no new nothing. Not even from the one person who promised me that when they got home last night they would say that they were safe.

That's when I get mad. "Phoenix!" I growled out clenching both my hands dropping my phone as doing the action.

It fell on the duvet with a muffled thud. I got up from the warm bed into the cold room, where I found my robe sitting on the chair in the corner over looking the room and the balcony.

I was walking lazily Down the lengthy hallway and noticed down the stairs there was a random letter placed smoothly leaning against the door. Non of the maids were around (gladly). I cautiously pick the letter up putting it in reading distance and it said:

'We have you're precious little Phoenix right here with us if you want him back then come find us. You know who we are and frankly where we are so we'd hurry if we were you. Unless you don't care about this stuck up uptight 'Brat.'

I immediately drop the latter and it gracefully and gently fell to the floor going left to right nearly as gracefully as it was falling. But that was not the way to describe the way I shot back upstairs and got dressed then legged it down again and threw myself outside got in to my car and tailed it to where I knew where the 'people' would be.

I finally reached it a back alley way down town it was were all the druggies went or the people who love the dark side of dueling 'The Underground'. I rushed out of my vehicle and slammed the door making sure I locked it so no one would hijack it and rushed over the security protected door.

"Name? And state you're business here." The security guard said in a moody temper as soon as I got to the heavy metal door not giving me any chance to do or say anything.

"Zane Truesdale you underhanded fool and I am here for.. A duel, a duel that's it. I am here for a duel indeed.

From who's there something is going to go down I know it so it wasn't a lie at all.

Without any arguments he just took his time opening the Damn door and then let me in.

He was quick to shut it though.

There was a couple of options to do once inside if you've got the access password. Down the stairs which lead to the a traction of many. Or go down a Couple of corridors. I did just that I got to a red iron door of which was closed but I can hear voices inside, one extremely pissed off and another one that sounded muffled like they were gagged.

I was about to knock but the door easily slid open with force it was dark. Why was it so dark?. I walked In raising my caution up a notch. But as soon as I step in the room the door slams shut and I hear it being locked as soon as that we was done the lights came on. Hallelujah but very blinding at first glance.

Finally I see him my one and only lover Aster Phoenix but not in his normal state he is so very carefully tied up to a chair and handcuffed by his feet, his hands and his neck. He is crying so hard but you can't hear it as he has a cloth forcefully shoved In his mouth. I can't help but see he is bleeding via his nose and there is cuts and bruises all over his now damaged but once a amazing body.

His eyes looked full of guilt and sorrow and I couldn't blame him.

I ran over to try and help him but it was useless nothing I could do would free him from the metal chains. It was hopeless then I froze when I hear them. Those slow heavy footsteps and they stopped before and calm voice.

Next chapter soon. Out of space.

Pls read. It would mean a lot.

Sorry for the random picture I wanted to put one on but I didn't want to get it taken down so I put a picture of my cat. He is such a poser.

Please let me know what you think. It means a lot to me.

If you like this but think that I have done something wrong please say so because although it is my story and the way I want it to be like. A story is something the readers will enjoy so if a detail is missed then the reader might not get the full extent of the story so it might just be better to let the readers say what they want to say and I can make some changes but if it is a rational change it just might make another story altogether so it will be a prequel or a sequel. Thank you.
