After rescuing both Ellen and Kaoru of Osafune, Yume soon arrived at the Special Sword Administration Bureau's HQ, every one of the Toji walking about quickly stepped aside and bowed respectfully knowing of Yume's skill and rank. As they bowed out of respect, Yume barley gave a time of day to anyone lesser than her fellow Elite guards or Yukari. It wasn't long till she was stopped by the emotionless Yomi who seem to have something to say.
"Oh, Yomi. Nice of you to greet me," Yume remarked making small talk.
"Yume, Yukari wishes to see you," she stated softy making Yume shrug her shoulders.
"Wants to talk to me eh? Very well," she said not sounding surprised while walking off as Yomi walked off. "No doubt the Toji kidnapping has already reached her ears, will she praise me for the saving or reprimand me for sneaking off? Perhaps both or neither?" she thought as she soon entered her office. "Oh Yukari!" Yume cheerfully said, restraining herself from pulling any sneak attacks.
"About time," Yukari remarked as she stared out a window, not bothering to turn to face Yume, which made the elite female fingers itch to draw her sword and attempt a sneak attack to test her mistress' strength. "I don't remember giving you permission to leave your post," Yukari said getting to the point.
"Little ol' me? Leaving my post? Surely you must be mistaken?" Yume teased cutely though the glare Yukari had been giving out the window was soon turned towards her and intensified making a chill go up her spine. "Yeesh, sorry, sorry that I left okay?" she said with a sigh though it didn't dampen Yukari's glare in the least. "I was bored alright? I needed some fun and I just want out for a nice walk. Besides it really worked out for those helpless Osafune Toji, they were so cute being thrust up bound and gagged like helpless schoolgirls, it was downright shameful," Yume mocked them with a soft chuckle. "I don't suppose you tipped off Osafune's president?"
"I imagine she is giving them a talking to right about now, much how I am," Yukari stated sternly making Yume roll her eyes. "Listen Yume, I know of your situation and I only have your best interests and among other things in mind. Boredom can be troublesome, but I will not allow you to vacate your post!" she lectured her making Yume bored.
"So what's the punishment this time? More detention in my room without my sword?" she asked uncaring as Yukari sighed.
"In light what you have done for Osafune and saved two Toji from being ransomed, I'm going to overlook this just this one time, but do not disobey me again!"
"Oooh, I understand! I promise to not do it again," Yume said acting sad though it was merely a playful act to show she was trying to act sorry. "I won't do it again, promise!" she said as she was soon excused from Yukari's room, which she hummed walking down the hallway with her fingers crossed behind her back.

Some weeks later, Yume was making her through a market bazar as she had been getting more boring assignments of worthless guard duty, in the back of her mind Yume knew Yukari was punishing her after all.
"I know she is punishing me," Yume remarked with a defeated sigh as she made her way through the streets which were far more crowded than usual thanks to an ongoing festival. "Although, this isn't exactly bad," Yume giggled as she at the same time enjoyed the sights as well as any of the tasty food that caught her nose. "It would be a lot better though if the others were with me," she sighed a bit sadly while thinking of Maki, Suzuka and Yomi which they were dealing with something boring. "I would even enjoy Yukari's company right about now, which is a shame she is also dealing with something boring as well but then again maybe she isn't punishing me by sending me here? Hehehe, she is such a softy," Yume remarked now happy she was here. As Yume tried to reach a more open area, she had to fight her way through a tightly packed crowd, bumping and knocking into people as she herself was knocked around and finally got someplace she could breathe easily.
"Finally," she remarked taking another step forward before realizing something was wrong and instinctively grasped her sword hilt, only to grasp nothing. "What?!" she cried out horrified to see her sword was now missing from her backside. "Impossible, there is no way my sword became unsheathed or simply dropped, the fact I didn't notice the weight difference instantly is absurd, damn crowds," Yume growled lightly knowing that fighting them kept her mind unfocused. "Where is it?" she cried out now retracing her steps but out of the corner of her eye did she notice a lone male running into an alley holding a sword. "Oh wow, someone or rather a petty thief actually managed to steal it, someone is dead..." Yume giggled out as a cold deadly aura surrounded her as she gave chase.
She ran after the man through the back alleyways, the pathways twisting and curving sharply around corners and it wasn't long till Yume lost sight of the target.
"Impossible! No one can out run me!" she cried out and rounded another corner, hoping to catch sight of him but as she did a strong hand outstretched and grasped her face, muffling a startled cry as Yume was soon pinned to the ground. "Mrhprm?!" Yume cried out shocked and startled as she began to squirm and struggle, trying to get free as a low chuckle from her captor made her try and turn her head to glare at him, but she couldn't catch a good glimpse but could hear the sounds of tape being pulled off of its roll. "Mrpm?" she grunted before the hand pulled away, a knee used to keep her face buried into the ground as she felt her limbs taped up.
"Basmshpmr!" she cried out as best as she could as she felt her limbs restricted as black extra strength tape was wrapped around her wrists, from there it was out stretched around her waist and around her wrists to pin them to her backside, more wrapping around her midsection and then to her elbows with it wrapping further up above and below her breasts to further restrict her. He then wrapped it several times over her thighs, above and below her knees before wrapping it in a few sections over her white stocking clad legs before wrapping it around her ankles and cutting the tape from the roll. He then ripped off several strips from the roll and smoothed it over her lips. "MRPMR!" she cried out now completely rendered helpless as her captor merely chuckled.
"Grrmrhrprm!" Yume cried out as she was soon picked up and slung over the mans' shoulder as she was carried away, squirming and struggling on his shoulder as she made out more of a large male in dark clothing but before she could learn more she was soon tossed into a trunk of a red car. "Mhphpm!" she cried out as she attempted to get a look at his face, but the lid was closed, locking her away in darkness before she could see.
"Is... is this really happening? Did... did someone really just kidnap me? Me of all people?!" Yume thought as she couldn't believe she fell for an obvious trap and now realizing she was being targeted from the start. "Though why the trouble of kidnapping me of all people? It doesn't make sense. It was due to money with the Osafune Toji..." Yume thought before realizing everything she had said about the Osafune schoolgirls being kidnapped now applied to her, making her eye twitch angrily as she began to thrash about in the trunk. "MMMMMMMMMPHHHHHH!" she cried out no longer caring about the reason as she just wanted to get free. As she struggled and pulled against the tape, it soon became apparent that brute strength alone wouldn't break it leaving her frustrated with the inability to get free.
"Oh screw this! I hate this! God damn why is this happening?!" Yume thought angrily as she continued to thrash about till she had to stop, breathing rather hard as she took a moment to calm down. "I need to go about this in a different way..." she thought while searching the trunk, finding nothing of use and realized how small and cramp it was. "Mhprmpr..." she growled as she had an idea and attempted to use her long nails to cut the tape, but despite her best efforts it wouldn't even tear much less get cut in the slightest. "What is this damn tape?!" she thought giving another angry thrashing before calming again.
"Mhppmmm, mphpmm, mmhmmm..." she moaned and now began to think of how the others would think of her if they ever learned of this humiliation.

Sometime after Yume had been kidnapped, the other three Elite Guards made their way through the festival, finishing their mission early and hurried in order to surprise Yume.
"I know we wanted to surprise her, but how can we ever find Yume in this large crowd?" Suzuka asked as the others kept their eyes peeled.
"You're right, we might end up spending all day trying to find her. I'm calling her," Maki said soon phoning Yume however got no response as her phone remain at the point she was grabbed, which the grab was so sudden it had fallen out of her skirt pocket. "Huh, she isn't answering," Maki said a bit worried as there was a moment silence as Yomi gave a deadpan response.
"She must have been kidnapped," she bluntly said shocking her friends which they looked at her bewildered.
"What?" Maki scuffed at such a remark.
"Oh my Yomi, that was bold of you to say but you're rather paranoid after that whole Osafune incident," Suzuka played it off but Yomi wasn't backing down.
"You two must not have heard, the man behind that incident escaped police custody recently so it is possible," she said leaving both Maki and Suzuka shocked at the revelation. "The man while in custody promised revenge on the one who thwarted his efforts, which given everything adds up."
"Just wait a second Yomi! How do you know all this?" Suzuka asked curiously.
"I overheard Yukari and Yuzuki discuss it," she responded making the other two sweat lightly.
"I refuse to believe that Yume would let herself be kidnapped like those Osafune schoolgirls!" Mika said with some kind of hope as Suzuka sighed having a bit more reality to the situation.
"If they took her Okatana though like how it was done for the Osafune kidnapping, then that would leave Yume the most vulnerable out of us all," she pointed out making the situation more grim.
"God dammit, Yomi you need to alert the local law enforcement! We're going to find Yume!" Maki shouted as she and Suzuka hurried away and began the search and ask anyone in the area if they saw anyone while Yomi did as told. Which as they searched in the local area, Yume was still in the trunk far far away.
-
Sometime had passed since Yume was grabbed and tapped up, she struggled and still thrashed wildly in the trunk, knowing full well it was futile to keep on struggling but she didn't care as she kept on kicking wildly. Before long the car came to a sudden stop as she could hear her kidnapper step out of the driver's seat.
"Mrmrhmm," she growled lightly while peering up at the trunk lid, which ended up being a mistake as she was soon blinded by a very bright light when the trunk was opened as she was picked out of the trunk. "Mmrpm!" she cried out as she blinked her eyes several times rapidly as she managed to adjust to the bright outside light in order to make out a small house sitting on a hillside overlooking the city she was just taken from.
The man soon carried her into the room and dumped her roughly onto the couch which she now glanced upward to see a male with most of his face observed by a hood. She couldn't concentrate for long as he soon grasped her tape gag making her eyes widen.
"Nrn!" she cried out, but it was too late as he ripped it off in on go. "GAAAHH!" she screamed in pain as a red mark was left over her lip area.
"Sorry, I didn't want to play with your gag," he said as Yume gritted her teeth.
"You disgusting little, do you realize how much trouble you are in? That's if I just don't outright gut you!" she yelled at the man who didn't look phased.
"Heheh, cute," the man merely remarked playing off her threats.
"Cute huh? Well let's start at the beginning, who are you and why did you kidnap me?" she demanded to know as the man chuckled some more as he soon drew back his hoodie, revealing dark blonde hair and a well handsome face as he soon removed his sunglasses.
"Tell me Yume, how have you been?" he asked as if knowing her.
"Huh?" Yume gave him a bit of a clueless look making him chuckle some more.
"Well, I'm not surprised you are drawing a blank considering you barely saw me while I laid on the ground," he said confusing her further.
"Enough of this, cut me free right now!" she demanded with a glare. "Doing so quickly may have me spare some part of your body," she offered though it made him laugh at the serious offer.
"You're not very good at negotiating, are you? It needs a lot of work," he mocked which frustrated her. "Again, I have to thank you," he said which deepen her confusion. "Even though you did ruin my plans you did stop me from making a huge mistake, as it turns out my entire plan on collecting money from my original target would be like trying to rob a bank after it closed down for good," he explained as Yume was still clueless as to what he was babbling about.
"Stop with the mindless chatter and just tell me..." Yume began to say before it clicked as to what he was saying, and she soon realized this was the man behind the Osafune kidnappings. "Y-You! It's you!" she cried out as the man grinned.
"Yes! It is I, Zek the Incredible!" he said making up a title to make himself look cool, but it went over Yume's head.
"Okay Mr. Nobody, mind telling me why you aren't behind bars?" Yume asked, knowing she nearly got in trouble for busting him.
"That's not important, but if it makes you feel better my crew is still in lockup, something of which I'll have to somehow fix. Anyways, I've decided Yume my goddess that you will compensate me for my troubles!" he stated with a grin as Yume glared at him.
"Afraid I'm not following," she muttered lightly as Zek shrugged his shoulders.
"You will soon enough, now rest up while I grab us some food. You can scream all you like, no one will hear you," he said soon taking his leave of the small home and it wasn't long till the car engine sound was heard followed by it driving off.
"Scream huh? Sick pervert most likely has some recorder setup to catch it all, well guess what! You will be the one screaming in the end," Yume promised as she worked herself into a sitting position and testing her bonds, now able to see them she was humiliated that such thin bindings were keeping her bound.
"Busting every bone in his body won't be good enough," she growled lightly as she soon stood up and eyed the front door. "It's going to be a long hop home..." she remarked moving forward, grateful she didn't have any large bosoms to complicate things as she soon reached the door. "Now..." she muttered as she spun around, unlocking the bottom lock however reaching for the top lock was near impossible in her bound state. "Come on!" she growled hopping up a few times, only to slip and falling onto the ground roughly from her attempts. "Oofp!" she groaned as she gritted her teeth. "This tape has to go!" she cried out flustered as she had to wiggle herself over to the couch, using it as a means of support to get herself back up onto her feet and began her search.
"Hrngn, rnrn, gahhh!" she cried out flustered while hopping around the place, finding nothing of use till she entered the bathroom and eyed a bottom drawer. "Please be a razor or something!" she said attempting to grasp the drawr, however she lost her balance causing her to fall over and landed on her side. "Not again!" she groaned attempting to get back up, but with no support and the tape tightly restricting her legs, it was impossible to get back up on her feet without support. "Gaaaaaaahhhhh!" she cried out flustered while flopping around which she kept up her struggle till Zek finally returned.
"Having fun are we?" he teased standing in the doorway, looking down at her as if judging her.
"Stop mocking me and untie me right now if you do not want the most painful death in history," Yume growled as the man chuckled.
"Fine, fine, come on let's get back to the couch shall we?" he said picking her up bridal style while playing off at her threats and soon took her back to the couch and as requested freed her from the tape.
"Thanks, now you-" Yume said attempting to grab him by the throat, but Zek easily grabbed both her arms and pinned her onto the couch with little effort. "Wh-What?!" she cried out as Zek took a deep smell of her body and moaned.
"Aahhhhhh, yes, yes, oh yes, you are so beautiful! It's no wonder I fell for you so easily despite only glancing at your face on that faithful night, hehehe!" he chuckled happily as Yume was glaring at him.
"Y-You..." she grumbled as she enjoyed the praise despite wanting to hate him deeply given the situation.
"I have no doubt your skin is soft as silk," he said soon caressing her face, as he thought it was nice and smooth, but he just managed to pull it away as Yume attempted to bite him.
"Stop touching me!" she yelled now squirming under his hold. "Let me go!" she cried out struggling more as Zek loved her reactions.
"Your personality, it's a perfect match for you," he remarked as he soon grasped her tightly by the jaw and made her look deeply into her eyes. "Oh yes, I will enjoy seeing how you break and become mine! No matter how long it takes, for you are my fortune! Hehehehe."
"Grrrrr!" Yume growled as she wouldn't be easy to break. "Then be ready for a very long session," she promised him much to his delight.
-
"You find anything?" Suzuka called out as she and Maki met up on top of a building, both of them panting hard from their rushed search.
"Just a little, nothing of use," Maki replied distressed. "A lot of people saw Yume since she does stand out, but nothing on the possible kidnapper."
"Yeah, not hard to miss an Elite Guard, but a random person would be invisible in a crowd like this specially if wearing something that would make him blend in," Suzuka pointed out the obvious.
"Jeez, we could be worrying about nothing. For all we know Yume left early and is just playing somewhere," Maki said hopeful as Yomi soon appeared from below, singling them down which once they appeared before Yomi who soon spoke in her usual deadpan tone.
"I've found something to report, footage from one of the nearby cameras," she said taking out her phone.
"What does it show?" Suzuka asked as they gathered around the camera, their eyes soon widening as they saw Zek bump into Yume, taking her sword while the crowd distracted her. Yume soon giving chase only to watch in horror as she was overpowered, bound and gagged with her soon being tossed into a car which sped off.
"Wh-What the hell?" Maki said soon slamming her fist into a nearby vending machine to release her anger.
"C-Calm down," Suzuka said speaking in a similar angry tone as Maki soon looked at Yomi.
"Did you tell the cops about this?" Maki asked Yomi who nodded.
"Yes, it's how I go the footage, they are now accessing the entire city's street cameras to track the car down, I made it clear it was top priority," she stated calmly.
"Alright, progress! Suzuka! Contact the Bureau and have them send a helicopter, we're going to go save Yume!"
"Hehehe funny we have to save her, or will we be saving her kidnapper?" Suzuka remarked though was merely trying to mask her worry as they all hoped to find Yume unharmed.
