Stepping out of the local club with a group of extremely beautiful individuals, Fuji Syuusuke heard a familiar tune, like a music box, the source was his phone, and one of his close friends was calling him, repeatedly, since half an hour ago.
"Hello?" he walked a little way from the others.
"Fujiko! It's bad!"
"What's happened now? Your boyfriend dump you again, Kiku-kun?"
"No! It's worse, Ochibi's gone!"
The smiling chestnut-haired boy was left stunned with those two words. Speech was no longer possible.
"Fujiko?"
"I'm coming now." he quickly shut the phone and strode over to his Silver Audi A6 Quatro.
He had to find Ryoma. And fast. There was no telling who could find the innocent beauty. And what they could, and probably would do, given half the chance, was unthinkable.
Shifting the car into top gear, Syuusuke sped along the desolate streets, not wasting time for useless traffic lights at this stage. He tried to calm his nerves, as acting rashly wouldn't get Ryoma back, but found that this was the only thing he's ever failed at in his entire 20 years of existence.
Once arriving at his private estate, he charged through the front doors.
"Eiji! Oi, Eiji!"
'Man, I cannot take this, where've they taken my baby?' Syuusuke was now at the weakest moment in his life, and even then, it hasn't been a happy walk in the park at the best of times.
"Fujiko! You're back!"
"Where's Ryoma?"
"I dunno, Fujiko… I came to check up on him, like you said, but… but he was gone."
"Gone?"
"…yeah. There's no damage to any of the windows or doors or anything… and nothing's been stolen…"
"…so you're saying he's run away?" at this point, Syuusuke was almost wishing someone took Ryoma, just so he could beat them senseless.
"N-not exactly b-but…"
"It's okay, Eiji. I'm going to find him, one way, or another."
After reassuring the red-head, and telling him he could go back to his own home, Syuusuke decided to look for Ryoma by himself; less bother that way.
Even though Syuusuke was a renowned genius; he could figure out any problem in mere minutes, he was completely stumped at this point. He had absolutely no idea of where to even begin to start his search for Ryoma.
"Where could he be?" Syuusuke said to himself, hoping he could find him soon, it was almost morning; the sun was soon to rise and the empty streets of Little Tokyo (1.) were going to be full of busy people very soon.
1.) Yea… this story is now taking place in Lil' Tokyo, just 'cos I've no idea where TeniPuri takes place…

Hmm, yea I'm real~ sorry about the extremely long wait... but school has totally taken over! At last, the Summer is coming, and it is NOT going to be a repeat of last year, I promise!
I meant for this chapter to be much longer, but I thought it'd be better to give you'se a short chapter, than to wait AGES for a long one when I could (possibly) me making a whole new chapter, ne?
Well, see you next time~! (which hopefully won't be too far off in the distance~!)
