Previously:

"We have plenty of time." Hikaru smiled his dangerous devious smile, but beneath there was nervousness. Haruhi was about to ask what he was so nervous about when he reached to untie her bandana and moving his lips over hers. Both holding still, neither one knew how to react until Hikaru sighed starting to pull his lips away when Haruhi's hands flew up, keeping his mouth in place, before she slowly moved her lips over his. Breaking apart after a second they looked at each bewildered and shocked and their own boldness. As Hikaru bent forward to re-tie her bandana he whispered in her ear, making her shiver. "You look beautiful, regardless of what outfit you are wearing." Haruhi tried to shake off the feel of his lips on hers, but couldn't as she moved to see a small person moving slowly out of the bushes opposite them.

Chapter 4:

Picking up a small smooth stone from beside her Haruhi threw the stone over-hand, making sure that it wouldn't hit Kiri but would gain her attention. Achieving the goal, Kiri became startled by the sudden and seemingly strange movement before turning towards the direction of where the stone came from. Blinking she noticed three people standing by a nearby tree, as she stepped out of her place of hiding her thoughts turning to her mother's reaction if she knew. I can't believe I was able to get away; mom would never have let me do this on my own. Of course, I always have to have an escort, as if I'm going to run away, or even try to. Kiri's thoughts came to a halt as she spotted Haruhi's face coming from behind a tree as she was waving her over to join her where the dim yellow light from the lamps barely penetrated through the leaves of the trees, giving an eerie look to the park. Adding to the already eerie look at the moment, Kiri noticed two identical cat-like faces next to Haruhi's with playful smiles spread on their lips. Making sure the coast was clear by doing a quick three-sixty, Kiri moved from her hiding spot in the bushes to the cover of the trees where Haruhi and the two strangers stood. Tripping on an unseen root, Kiri began to let out a loud noise as her body was hurling towards the ground. Suddenly two strong arms reached out, one wrapped around her waist gently stopping her from falling mere inches from the hard ground while the other gently covered her mouth as the stranger whispered slyly in her ear.

"Though I do realise that was unexpected, any loud noises might draw un-needed and un-wanted attention, and so keep the noise levels to a minimum please princess." Kaoru's voice made Kiri have to blink a few times before she nodded her head and was able to stand on her own. Kaoru led Kiri by the hand to Haruhi and Hikaru. Turning towards her and offering a warm host smile, Kaoru introduced himself. "I apologise for startling you. My name is Hitachiin Kaoru, the other person with Haruhi is my twin brother Hitachiin Hikaru, and we are classmates and friends of Haruhi's." Speaking barely above a whisper Kaoru offered another smile, this time softer and more genuine before turning away from the dim light. Kiri felt the heat of blush that had covered her face and was happy that the light was dim or the blush would have burned her cheeks brighter.

"Kiri, you made it alright, I am so glad that you could." Haruhi's warm and excited voice broke through Kiri's thoughts and beating heart. Smiling and turning towards her half-sister whom she now embraced in a hug, Kiri merely smiled brightly knowing that whatever happened tonight, it was worth the consequences, besides her mother could not keep her away from Haruhi forever, that just was not a viable option now that they had been reunited. Also given that Haruhi was 17 and getting ready to turn 17 and Kiri was only six months younger than her.

"I like your outfit, it's cute Haru-chan." Kiri broke the comfortable silence making all eyes turn to Haruhi. Watching her eyes expand in surprise Haruhi couldn't help but bow her head and give a quiet "Arigato" before turning towards her sister: "And I like yours too Ki-chan. We match!" Haruhi exclaimed before slinking down and looking around to make sure that they were not being watched. Kiri was looking up and down Haruhi, noting the changes and the way that she and grown since the last time she had seen her. She even noticed that she was still as flat as an ironing board. Kiri laughed to herself, some things just don't change.

The noise of footsteps caught all of them off guard as a walkie-talkie went off: "I thought I heard voices over by the swings in the south quadrant, I'm going to check it out." There was a short silence before a women's icy cold voice responded, "You'd better, I know she's not sleeping and her door is locked, I know the butler is lying by saying he doesn't know where she is. She has to be out with that little tramp of a half-blood sister. Get and bring her back as soon as possible. I don't care what means you use, she knows she's not allowed to see the prissy little wench and if she does I'll skin her hide for it!" The women's voice cut out as Haruhi and Kiri went still. Haruhi was trying not to let the remarks of Tanaka get to her, but wench and tramp aren't just words that you throw around.

They saw the man walking closer towards them and they all squished trying to hide from them. The man had bent down looking at something, he was eye level with all four teenagers as he was looking at a piece of fabric stuck to a branch. Kiri's eyes went wide with panic, when she had tripped a piece of her clothing must have caught on the bush, the man was looking around, eyes carefully scanning every outline of the shadows, he crossed over their place three or four times, but never let on that he saw them. Taking out a piece of paper and a pen he wrote something, left it on the branch and walked away as if nothing had happened.

Kaoru being the closest to the bush moved as silently as he could to the note and looking at it he was surprised by what he read, very carefully detaching the note Kaoru brought it back over. "The man knows that you two are here, and he wants to make sure that you both have time to catch up. His car is parked on the north quadrant of the park. If we can make it over there by 10:45 he will take us anywhere without the notice of Tanaka." Kaoru's surprise was cut off by Kiri's anger.

"What is the name on the bottom of the note?" Kiri asked disdainfully

"It says, Loki, why?" Kaoru was thinking that the guard had befriended them, not the other way around.

"No. We can't go. He is her most loyal guard. He will do anything. Kaoru, you should not have taken the not they know we are here, we must move quickly or they will move in." Kiri's whispers were severe and harsh but she was telling the truth, and it was all too late. Looking around them, there were at least ten well built, strong men looking at them, guarding them, and waiting for them to make a move. Standing up they all realised that it was not possible, they could do nothing.

"Come, you mother is looking for you and she is not happy. With either of you." It was Loki, and like Kiri had said, he was the most loyal. As they started walking in the general direction that Loki had started they noticed another five men join them. Fifteen men for four teenagers, who was this woman? Was all Hikaru and Kaoru could think as they were led to a black limo, taking them to a place they did not want to go.

Haruhi struggled, trying to outrun them, but never having been all that fast she was unable and in the end walking with binds on her wrists being led by one of the men to the car. Once in the car, Haruhi and Kiri were separated, they were not allowed to even utter a word, and were threatened that if either one of them tried to do so, they would make sure that their mouths would stay shut until they all arrived at the house.

Tanaka was a woman with a lot of money. Having married well after Ranka she had become quite the heiress after the husband had passed away, making it possible for her to move back into town. She was a woman with a will, a will you did not want to mess with. She was fierce and strong and had the ability of making it impossible for anyone to go anywhere in life. She rivaled the Ootori's in viciousness and dedication. And it was to this house that they were all being taken.

So, there's chapter 4. I'll be working on chapter 5 tonight and will hopefully have it up by tomorrow, or maybe even tonight! Have a great Thanksgiving for those that celebrate it!
