Well, this is the first time I've made a try at something like this. that is, letting other people read what I've written, I've written quite a bit, but usually it just sits on my hard drive.. : ) . all alone :P

I hope I've got the rating right, if I'm wrong please correct me! Ah, only one of the characters belong to me, and he doesn't have a name yet. the rest all belong to the person who created gravitation.. hopefully I don't mangle them too much : ) Enjoy!

GONE MISSING
'Ryu-chan', he purred in the silence of his thoughts, 'you will be mine'.

The crowd roared around him, screaming girls jostled him as they fought for a better view, as they vied for the faint hope of being noticed by the strangely charismatic singer. He knew they wouldn't be. He knew the singer was going to be his alone. He made sure of it.

The dark haired man smiled fiercely, unnoticed in the crowd.

...

"Waiiiiit!!! Tohma-kun!!!!" A hyperactive Ryuichi called after his friend and fellow band member, who turned with a look of resigned patience. Ryuichi rushed up to him and thrust Kumagorou in his face. "Aren't you going to take me and Kumagorou home?" He asked, a pout on his face.

Tohma sighed, trying not to be annoyed by having to remind his childlike friend once again, "No, I have a meeting to attend this evening, but your driver will take you." Ryuichi looked up at him with big sad eyes, the pout more pitiful than ever. Tohma couldn't help but smile and ruffle the man's soft hair. "I'll walk you to where he's waiting, if you want." He was immediately tangled in arms and legs as the cheering Ryuichi tackled him. He pushed the man off, then led the way to the waiting car, listening with only half an ear to Ryuichi's prattling

Once in the car Ryuichi rolled down the window and made Kumagorou's arm wave to Tohma as they drove off. Tohma waved after them, then rolled his eyes once they were out of sight. But he couldn't help a small smile as he headed to his office.

..

The man listened intently to the childlike voice singing to himself in the back seat. The man couldn't help but smile maliciously. 'All mine'. He kept the darkened window between himself and his passenger up except for a centimeter or so, he didn't want the man to see his face. He had done some tinkering to the car earlier, in order to make it so he could jam the window in place, as well as making the doors impossible to open from the inside, if he wished it. He knew he was smart, he knew he could do anything. After all, he just took for himself the most popular man in all of Japan. He wanted to laugh out loud, but instead he contented himself with locking the doors and windows. 'Later' he promised himself.

He turned off the road that led to the singer's house, and took one instead that led to a darker part of the city. After a while he heard a tapping on the separating window.

"Umm, where are we going?" Asked a timid voice from the back. The dark haired man smiled hungrily, hearing the beginning of fear.

"To your home." He answered back. There was silence for a moment, then "But, Kumagoro says we don't live this way." Ryuichi's voice sounded tight. Another smile. He heard rattling as door handles were tried. "Umm, how come the doors are locked?" He could imagine the white-faced singer clutching that stuffed animal to him, as if it could somehow protect him.

"I wouldn't want you to get hurt." The driver pushed a button to roll the separating window the rest of the way up, then he leaned over felt around an object sitting on the passenger seat floor, and finding what he was looking for, flipped a switch on the odd looking machine. A slight humming started. He chewed on his lips, as if already tasting some gourmet meal, while a gas rendering his captive docile filled the compartment behind him. He reluctantly turned the music up to cover the sounds of the vocalist's growing cries as he began to realize his situation. He frowned at the necessity of covering up the delicious sounds, but he wouldn't want someone to decide something was wrong inside the car. 'Oh well' he thought and grinned with anticipation, 'soon enough.'

...

His eyes wouldn't focus. It was dark, then light, then dark again. An odd, cadenced sound rang in his ears. His eyes still wouldn't work. He felt he was being carried, he felt seasick, but couldn't get up the energy to act even on that. The sound faded and his world swayed and tilted. He felt himself being set down, but couldn't move. He tried to cry, but felt too funny to do that. He wondered if Kumagoro was there, but couldn't really tell. He tried to move his hand, but couldn't make his body answer him. He felt heavy and light at the same time. He tried to feel scared, but even that emotion escaped him. He felt himself being picked up again, and then he was too tired to think of anything for a while.

He opened his eyes and couldn't see anything. This time he felt scared, he whimpered. He was lying on blankets, but the floor beneath was hard. "Kumagorou , are you there?" he whispered into the silence. He didn't actually expect the stuffed animal to answer back, but he felt better with some sound. He drew his knees up and hugged them to his chest, rocking back and forth, silently crying. He was alone, someone had taken him away from his home, someone had taken Kumagorou away. He stopped rocking, remembering what the strange man had said, that this was his home. He shut his eyes tight, although he couldn't see anything with them open. "Tohma-kun?" he called, then louder, "Noriko-chan?" Finally he couldn't stand it, "K!!! Save me!!! Please someone!!! Kumagorou!!" he screamed into the silence, his voice echoing around him was the only answer. He broke down into sobs, his body shaking, fists clenched, until he finally cried himself to sleep once more.
