Chapter Four
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot and my OC's!
With Kyoya
Kyoya was just sneaking out of his palace. He had to go alone, otherwise something could go wrong. He got to the meeting place, but found no one there.
"Kaoru? Anyone?" he called.
No reply. He heard footsteps but when he turned around he found…Kaoru!
"Ah, Kaoru. I was wondering where you were."
The ginger turned around and gave him a confused look.
"Sorry, but I'm not Kaoru."
"You're not? Oh yes, now I remember Kaoru has a twin. You must be him, uh….Hikaru!"
Hikaru nodded. "That's me. Are you supposed to be meeting Kaoru here?"
"Uh yes. He said he and some girl named Aylin would meet me here and we would talk."
Hikaru grunted. "Of course."
Kyoya looked at him; he was just about to ask what was wrong, when a female voice came out of nowhere.
"Who have we here, Hikaru?"
"I don't know, Boss."
"Oh really?" the girl dropped down from seemingly the air.
Kyoya looked up and saw clothes line poles. He looked back down at her.
"Hikaru."
"Yes, ma'am."
Then Hikaru jumped on top of him, tackling him to the ground.
"What the—!"
Kyoya's eyes got quickly covered by a bag and he had something stuck onto his mouth. He tried to speak, but it was all a failed attempt. He was lifted up to his feet and has hands were tied together. He was then being lead away from the meeting space and off to, well, who knows where.
The bag was removed about ten to twenty minutes later. Kyoya looked around and saw that he was in a concrete room. There was a big wooden door down across the room from him and next to it was a smaller door. He looked to his right to see four sets of bunk beds and four metal chests lined up in a row in between the bunk beds. He looked to his left and saw a set of metal narrow steps. He followed them up to see a balcony.
He was about to look away when he noticed something peculiar. There was a girl sitting on the railing facing the open air, and she was reading a book. She was carelessly swinging her legs back and forth, when she brought them back, they would kick the fence and the whole thing would rattle.
"Uh, miss!" Kyoya called up.
She put her book in her lap and peered down at him. "Yes?"
"Are you sure that you're not going to fall?"
She just nodded and continued kicking her legs.
"Okay…Where am I?" Kyoya asked.
"You're at Red Rose headquarters station #1!"
Kyoya's eyebrows rose. "And how did I get here?"
"Oh, the boss and Hikaru brought you in a little while ago."
"Who, exactly, are you?"
She jumped down and landed on a pile of mattresses and smiled at him. "I'm Rose. Rose Fells, to be exact. Who are you?"
"Kyoya, and that's all you need to know."
"Oh, getting a little feisty, eh?"
He stared at her, completely uninterested in her games.
"Okay, okay, sorry. Just trying to have some fun before the boss comes back."
"Tayler is your guys' boss, correct?"
Rose nodded, grinning. "So you've heard of her? Oh wait, of course you have; everyone has!"
Kyoya started to get really irritated. "What's with your stuck up attitude?"
"Hm? Oh sorry, I get like that after I have just read and met someone one. Sorry, I'm not usually like this." Rose smiled, softly.
Kyoya looked at her. There was the sound of a throat being cleared.
"Rose, why are you socializing with the captured?" Tayler asked, "Haven't I talked to you about this before?"
"Yes, Tayler, you have. I am sorry."
"It's fine. Now leave us."
Rose nodded and exited the room. Tayler pulled up a stool and sat down in front of Kyoya and looked at him, suspiciously.
With Aylin and Kaoru, a few minutes after Kyoya was kidnapped
"Where is he?" Aylin groaned, looking at her pretend watch.
Kaoru shrugged and looked around. "Should we go tell Krista?"
"Yeah, I'm think we should. Something's up and I don't know what it could be."
The two nodded at each other went the little ways back to the headquarters. They went in.
"Where's Krista?" they both asked.
Everyone pointed down the hall and to the right. They nodded and ran down the hall. They pushed the door open and looked at Krista.
"Hey, how'd it go?" she asked calmly, not even looking at them.
"He never showed up!" they both exclaimed.
Krista just so happened to be sipping her water, but ended up doing a spit take.
"What do you mean he never showed?"
"We waited for quite awhile. But he never showed!" Aylin said.
Krista stood up, abruptly and then ran out of the room, grabbing a cloak and a blade, sliding it into her sheath. She made her way out of the headquarters, knowing that she had Aylin and Kaoru running behind her.
"Boss, where are you going?" Aylin cried.
"Why to Red Rose, where else? I know that they must have gotten him."
"But, how do you even plan to get in, find it at the very least?"
"Well, I guess it's a good thing that Kaoru followed us too, isn't it?"
Kaoru froze. "M-Me? You want me to take you guys there?"
"Well, you did say that you used to be a member did you not?"
Kaoru nodded, speechlessly.
"Then you should know where it is." Krista concluded she spun around stopping in place, "So tell me, Kaoru, where is there jail house?"
Kaoru went pale. "I-I'm not supposed to tell."
"What do you mean you're not supposed to tell? You aren't a part of their gang anymore! Tayler tried to kill you! Doesn't that mean a thing to you? And besides, you are part of my gang now, you belong to me. So I'm going to ask you again, where is the jail house located, Kaoru?"
Kaoru shook his head, signaling that he wasn't going to tell.
Krista went to advance even more but Aylin stepped in front of her. "Don't force him, Boss. Please?"
Krista narrowed her eyes at her but nodded. "Okay. But you better get him to tell us where it is."
Aylin turned to Kaoru. "Please tell us where it is Kaoru?"
Kaoru tried to say no, but he couldn't because she was giving him the puppy dog face.
"Okay! Fine! Follow me."
They both smiled and nodded, following Kaoru to their destined location. They stopped at an old abandoned warehouse. They opened up the vent and crawled in. They stopped about another vet and looked in.
"I see Tayler, and…there he is! Okay, you guys head back and take up the new mission that's at headquarters. I'll get Kyoya."
The two nodded and quickly made their exit. Krista got out her blade and got to work on undoing the screws.
With Kyoya and Tayler
"So, Kyoya, you were just casually strolling and decided to have a chat with my assistant? Now does that sound like a good story to you? Because it sounds like BS if you ask me."
Kyoya looked away and his eyes happened to fall onto the vent. He noticed Krista inside of it, most likely working on getting it open.
"Well, that's the truth, so I don't know what else you want from me."
Tayler sighed, exasperatingly. "Why are you lying to me? Wouldn't it just be easier if you just told me the truth?"
"But that is the truth."
"Well it can't be, because I don't believe you and I can tell when someone is lying."
"Oh really? Can you now? Why do I get the feeling that that is a lie to get me to admit that I'm supposedly lying, which I am not."
Then the vent was kicked out. Krista jumped out and brought her dagger out in front of her, so that it was aimed at Tayler.
"Hand him over, Tayler."
"Ah, sis, so wonderful that you could join us."
"Don't ever call me that again, I told you, I'm not your sister. Now give him to me! You don't just go stealing random bystanders off the streets! Luckily my men were out doing a surveillance check and happened to see you. They contacted me, and well here we are."
Tayler only smirked. "Oh? Since when do you do anything good for the public?"
"I always do. You just never seem to notice it. So why don't you open your eyes and pay more attention to your surroundings."
"What's that suppose to mean?" just then Tayler went to look at Krista only to be punched square in the jaw. She fell backwards onto the ground, stunned for the moment. Krista took advantage of the moment and got Kyoya untied and ran to the door. She opened it and they both ran out into the sunset! Ready to have their happy ever after and start a family.
Yeah, no, not even close. They opened the door to find six other Red Rose members standing around out there. They both froze and nodded at each other and so they ran through the Red Rose grounds.
All six of the other gang members immediately charged after them. Luckily, they weren't armed at the time, so it made it easier for Krista and Kyoya to run, with not having to worry about dodging bullets and arrows and random daggers.
"This way!" Krista called as she turned a sharp corner. Kyoya just barely heard the call, so he quickly turned himself just in time to make it. They both stood still, not even breathing as the six ran past, not even noticing that they were chasing nothing.
Krista reached over, grabbed Kyoya's hand, and ran straight across the road to the other side. She looked along the wall for an outline of a door; she found it and then did a secret knock.
Once on the left side, twice on the bottom, six times on the top, and the once on the right.
The door swung open and Aylin and Kaoru stood there, grinning all weirdly.
"What's with the weird grins you two?"
They jerked their chins downward. Both Kyoya and Krista looked down and saw that they were both clutching the others hand. They both blushed lightly and released, their hands quickly returning to their sides.
"Move." Krista said, pushing through them and into the passage way.
Kyoya walked through and Kaoru, Aylin quickly shut and locked the door, and then followed after the others. They made it to the headquarters and they all sat down.
"So, Kyoya, wanna share with us how you managed to get kidnapped?" Krista asked, smirking.
"Well, I decided to come alone, so that's what I did. Then I was waiting, I called out for Kaoru. Then I thought I saw him. But instead it was Hikaru—."
"Wait! You saw Hikaru? How was he?"
"Uh, good, I think."
"Anyways…" Krista muttered.
"Yeah, well then we chatted for a few minutes. Tayler came out of nowhere and started to question Hikaru. Then she ordered Hikaru to tie me up. And then they brought me there. I met some girl named Rose. She was quite the character. Well then I got questioned, she asked me if I would be a part of her gang, and now I'm here."
Krista nodded, Kaoru was stunned by the fact that he had talked to Hikaru, and Aylin, well she was going into deep fantization about what he had said and how saddening it was or whatever, something like that.
"Okay, well, you are going to be stuck here until the street gets cleared from the war that is going on right now. And well you could get found and kidnapped again."
Kyoya nodded and sighed. "Do you at least have a way I can get a message to my palace, so they know I'm okay?"
"Of course. Aylin!"
Aylin handed him a pen, ink, and some paper. Kyoya thanked her and started writing.
