"I'll get the villa in Venice, the summer cabin in Osaka, also the Ferrari California…"
"Hm."
"I'll also receive all the crystal, jewelry, and half of your-Are you even listening?!"
"It's you who wanted this divorce, not me."
The purple-haired beauty sighed heavily and sat down, mentally worn at trying to make her present husband understand. Eriol Hiiragizawa looked at his wife and daughter over the top of his daily newspaper he always read at breakfast. The former was currently rubbing her head, while the latter was calmly eating her food, undisturbed. 'I can't tell wether she got the calmness from, me or Tomoyo' thought Eriol ruefully.
"Mizuki, darling, eat your eggs," Tomoyo Daidouji, now Tomoyo Hiiragizawa until the divorce, told their five-year-old daughter, ignoring her husband.
"But mama," pouted Mizuki. Tomoyo shook her head. "No buts."
"Papa," whined Mizuki, turned to her father, piercing him with neon blue eyes. Inwardly, Eriol cursed the genetics that gave his daughter the eyes that made him do anything. "It's okay, Tomoyo. She's healthy enough as she is."
Said woman glared at him. "See, that's one of the reasons I'm divorcing you!"
Mizuki Sakura Hiiragizawa sighed and stood up from the table. "I'm going now."
Her mother continued listing Eriol's faults as she exited the house (mansion) that she lived in and entered the car that took her everyday to Clamp Private Academy. The girl leaned into the leather seats and thought about her family.
Her mother, Tomoyo, was an ethereal beauty known throughout the world. She was one of the most famous designers, up there with Armani and Chanel. Back when she was young, she modeled and sang, which she still did even now. Her reputation had only grown when she had married her father, Eriol.
Eriol was a business man. He and his forefathers had made Hiiragizawa Empire so big, that all business interactions had to go through them. He had modeled before, making him the world's heart throb with his neon blue eyes and midnight hair. That's where he had met and fallen in love with her mother, even though she may not love him anymore now.
The result had been tons of money, villas throughout the world, and invites to the most exclusive parties right then. 'And me,' thought Mizuki ruefully as the car drove onwards. She had inherited her mother's beauty, looking like her younger self, except for her eyes. Her eyes were the blue color of her father's that the world had fallen in love with.
Her eyes wandered to the window and noticed something wrong with the surroundings. She started.
"Hey Mr. Driver, where are we going?" Mizuki asked. "This isn't the way to school…"
"Yep." The chocolate-haired driver turned to her. "I'm kidnapping you."

"Stupid, inconsiderate jerk," muttered Tomoyo as she exited a shop with bags full of stuff on her arms. "That Eriol, what makes him think he can-"
She got into her car, and was about to start it when a ring came from her purse. Pursing her lips, she dug through the purse until she found her cell phone. Glaring at the caller name, she flip it open and activated her Bluetooth. "What?"
"Tomoyo." Eriol's voice sounded strained, even to Tomoyo. "Get home quick."
"Why?" whined Tomoyo, starting her car anyways.
"Mizuki's…gone missing."
Tomoyo sped up.

"We will only return your daughter once you pay us the ransom fee of 5 million dollars. Fail to pay it, and we kill her. Send anyone to save her, and she'll be killed also. Leave the money in one month at Shizuka Bridge and we'll return her safe and sound."
The video clicked off, leaving the two adults staring in shock. Tomoyo collapsed onto the couch, her legs too weak to hold her. "What do we do now?"
"Do? We pay them of course!" Tomoyo yelled at Eriol. He stared back. "No."
"No?! Are you mental?!" She glared at Eriol. "She's our only child! And we can't send anyone to save her!"
"Yes we can." Eriol told his wife soothingly. She stared back at him, questioning. "Then what?"
"We can go save her ourselves."
Yes, I know, this is probably the shortest chapter I've ever written and what am I thinking, starting a new story with 3 unfinished ones still left? Crazy, but I wanted this one up. I'll probably update Say That Again and Is Eternity Really Forever? before updating this one again. Anyways, hope you liked it and check out my other stories!
