Ok, Yes, I know the last chapter was a little wired. I hope a couple of you were able to tell what I was hinting too... Mainly that chapter was to show just how crazy Raji is ^_~

I do not own Gravitation.

Please note: The Chapter takes place in the past!!

Shuichi sighed as he pushed the stroller along the sidewalk. Eiri wouldn't tell them where they were going, but the twins dancing and jumping into front of the couple didn't seem to mind at all.

"Eiri, why can't you just tell me?" Shuichi asked once again as he kept pace with his novelist.

"It's a surprise."

"Why couldn't we just drive then?"

"Because you need to lose some weight," Eiri said as e pinched Shuichi's sides.

"I do not! I'm the same size when I first met you and you know it! Now you better think of a better reason than that," Shuichi pouted.

"We can't drive to where we are going."

Shuichi stopped. Eiri turned his head to look back at him as he kept walking. "That was a line from the movie the other night! That's what the guy said before he killed everyone…" Eiri just smiled and kept walking. Shuichi pushed the stroller as fast as he could.

Knowing what was about to happen, Eiri grabbed the stroller and began pushing it as Shuichi latched onto his arm. "Please don't kill us, Eiri! We just got Tiril a month ago and the twins are still so young… and so am I!"

"Shut up brat," Eiri said as he sighed. "Aiydan, Aiylia, turn right."

Both twins looked up at the building before them. 'Bank?' Aiylia signed. Aiydan shrugged and pulled open the door for everyone.

Shuichi let go of Eiri and looked around. "Stay with the kids," Eiri said as he walked up to a waiting teller.

"Right…" Shuichi said as he led the twins and the stroller to an area by the door. Shuichi kneeled on the ground and pulled the barely awake baby from the mass of cloth materials. "Good morning Tiril. Welcome back to the world of the awake."

The baby in question stared up at his Mom like he was the biggest idiot on the planet. "Mom, can I hold Tiril?"

"Let me go change him first, ok baby girl?" Aiylia nodded. "Stay here please," Shuichi said as he ran over to Eiri. The held a quick conversation and Shuichi ran off to the bathroom holding Tiril and a small bag.

"My idiot," he said to the woman who laughed.

"Anything else I can get you, Usegi-san?" she asked as she slipped the money in a small envelope.

"You're phone number would be nice," he commented as he put the money in his jacket.

Laughing the woman looked around. "I don't go for men with kids."

"Only one is related by blood," he joked.

"Daddy," Aiylia yelled. Eiri hung his head thinking his kids heard him. When he turned around, surprise took his face.

"Aiylia…" he whispered as he saw the barrel of the gun resting on her temple.

"Everyone down on the ground of this little girl blood will cover the floor," the man holding her yelled. Eiri didn't even hesitate to get on the ground. No matter where the man carrying his daughter moved, his fierce golden eyes followed.

Shuichi smiled at the job well done. "Silly kid," he laughed as he re-buttoned the one piece the baby wore. "I love you," he said as he kissed the baby's stomach before putting the shorts back on. The baby laughed as he loved on the table. Shuichi cleaned up his mess then picked up both Baby and bag. "Daddy should be done now, let's go bug him."

Smiling he walked over to the door. Carefully he pulled it towards him, just to stare down the barrel of a black gun. "Uhm…Hi?" Shuichi mumbled looking to see it wasn't the American manager he was so used to.

The man reached a hand to the back of Shuichi's shirt and pushed him forward. "Get on the ground," the man said as Shuichi fell on his side by Eiri. Tiril immediately began crying.

"Shut that brat up," he man holding Aiylia yelled.

"He…he's hungry…" Shuichi tried to say with a calm voice. "Please, let me get him a bottle…"

The man stared at him questionably then nodded. "Aiydan, in the bag… grab one of Tiril's bottles," Shuichi called across the room. Aiydan nodded and began rummaging through the bags. Finally he found one.

Standing slowly, he waited to see what the men would do. When they didn't react, Aiydan walked over to his parents, handing Shuichi the bottle. Eiri immediately pulled the boy down next to him. Shuichi rested against the wall beside Eiri and fed his son.

Time passed slowly for them. Once the Police had shown up outside, all the hostages were allowed to sit up. But still they weren't allowed to move around or talk.

Three hours had passed. Aiydan refused to take his eyes of his scared sister. Eiri refused to let the boy go, and Shuichi wouldn't get off of his leg so he could get the girl back. "I'm hungry…" Shuichi whispered. Aiydan looked at his mom then set his hand on his stomach noticing the slight rumble.

Aiylia pulled her knees to her chest, in the chair she had been set in. More than anything, she just wanted to cry.

"Boss, we're in!" a guy yelled form the back of the bank.

"Finally," the man said as he grabbed Aiylia by her hair. He drug her behind the counter and put her in another chair. From here she could see all the money in the bank.

Everyone watched as the three men plus Aiylia walked back towards the door. "Please don't take my daughter," Shuichi blurted out. The men stared at him confused. "Please, take me instead… I'm sure you could get farther if I was your hostage."

The leader began laughing. "A tiny girl or an adult male… I think the girl will get us more."

Shuichi stood, passing Tiril to Eiri. "My name is Shuichi Usegi, lead singer of the band Bad Luck."

No one moved. Everyone was frozen to their spots. "Bad Luck, huh?" Shuichi nodded. "Grab him," he ordered. Shuichi smiled when he saw the man release his daughter.

"Shuichi…" Eiri froze when he saw the gun on his loves temple now.

'I love you,' Shuichi mouthed. Eiri grabbed his kids and watched as Shuichi was walked out of the bank.

Eiri felt his heart ache as he watched his singer walk out of the door. His heart broke when he heard the gun shpt's outside. His heart almost stopped when he heard Aiylia cry and beg for forgiveness.

The door to the provided get a way car was opened for him as he was pushed into the back. He crawled onto the floor and began crying.

He heard the glass break as the car was turned on. Looked up with puffy eyes, he watch the man fall backwards on to the ground. "GO!" Someone yelled. Shuichi felt sick as the vehicle began moving at deadly speeds.

Eiri paced the apartment. It had been two days and nothing. No calls, no letter…nothing to tell him Shuichi was still alive.

"If those cops shot him…" he couldn't think of what he would do. He just wanted his Shuichi back.

"Mail," Aiylia called as he walked into the apartment. Quickly Eiri ran to her, thanked her, then grabbed the mail to look threw it.

He froze. No return address on a card sized envelope. Dropping everything else, he tore open the paper. Yes, the police did tell him not to open anything that might be from the robbers, but he could blame someone else later.

Pictures… he thought as he tore them out. His heart once again broke. The included pictures were f his Shuichi, tied up, looking with longing eyes at the camera. He didn't seem to be hurt… but he was scared. The cloth tied around his mouth looked like it had already collected buckets of tears and saliva.

Stuck to one of the pictures was a note. Eiri quickly looked for his reading glasses and read it.

We hope you like seeing your singer one last time before we remove him from the city. You should have just paid the ransom. Too late now…

Eiri's heart was in pieces. He reached for the phone and called the one person who could learn anything. "Tohma…"

"What is it, Eiri-san?"

"Ransom… Shuichi…"

"They want a ransom now?"

"Wanted… Tohma…" Eiri couldn't form a sentence at all. His mind was in a world of its own, thinking about how he wouldn't see Shuichi again.

"Eiri, I will help you with whatever it is…but you have to talk to me," Tohma said calmly.

"They… wanted a ransom… I didn't… I never…"

"Eiri, I want you to go lay down to calm your head. I understand what you are saying now. I will see what I can do, but you must rest."

"Please just help him…" he said before hanging up.

Shuichi looked around the small room he was in. The cold concrete he sat on didn't make him feel safe in the least bit. He just wanted to be held in Eiri's arms.

The door opened and light filled the room. The man that walked in Shuichi had never seen before. "Shuichi Usegi." Shuichi did his best to sit up. "I am detective Ichiru, lead detective on the case for your kidnapping."

Shuichi's eyes lit up. The police have found me… Eiri, I'm on my way back to you, ran through his mind.

----------3 Weeks later-------

Shuichi couldn't move in the dark space. The straps that held him in place even made it hard to even breathe inside…whatever he was inside of.

It was then he heard it. The squeak of wood being torn from nails. When it stopped he could see a little light on each side of his face but not enough to know where he was.

"Kenna," a male spoke, "remove the mask."

"Yes Master," the girl replied as she pulled the eye cover from Shuichi's face. She also began undoing the many buckles that bound Shuichi's arms and legs together.

"Where…?"

"Welcome to my mansion, Shuichi Shindou," Raji said with a smile.

Do we get it? Lol. I'm not sure if that painted the image it did for me… ^_^

As for now, I need to plan out what will happen next….
