Here you go for everyone that has been waiting. This chapter isn't as long as the other ones because I have been sort of busy. Winter break is coming and of course school has to pile on everything before they let you go. XP.

Chapter 4: Kidnap

When Sayuri was able to calm down a little Yuri decided that it would be best that she get some air. The house that they were using had a second level where Yuri took Sayuri and led her to an open roof, letting the night's cool air calm her.

"Are you feeling better now?" Yuri asked as she patted the girl's back gently.

"Yes, thank you Suzuki-san," Sayuri told her as she breathed in the cool air not seeing Yuri wince.

"Please, I would like you to call me Yuri. I'm not used to that other name." She told the girl kindly.

Sayuri looked over at Yuri, once again amazed at the transformation that this girl had gone through. She looked so much older and regal. "What happened to you?" Yuri looked over at Sayuri in surprise and Sayuri shook her head, "I don't mean to be rude! But… you seem different somehow. I guess it had been awhile since I've seen you… maybe three or four years? I'm not sure"

"It has been awhile hasn't it?" Yuri said as she placed her hand over her stomach, "I've been through a lot since being here. It is a long story and one I don't think you should hear at the moment. Let's just say that I've grown to like it here. I have many friends and a wonderful husband."

"Husband? You mean that man is your," Sayuri stopped herself from going on, knowing that she was being rude.

Yuri smiled, "Yes, he is. It might seem weird that I married young but by this times standards it isn't young at all."

"I'm not sure what is going on. I mean why did Ramses bring me here, how do you guys know each other."

"That's another long story, but Ramses needed to share some important information with us." Yuri looked at the exit that lead downstairs. "Which reminds me, are you ready to go down now? I would like to know what Kail and Ramses are discussing."

Sayuri bit her lip not wanting to leave the breeze that gently brushed her face, calming her, "You can go ahead." Yuri looked indecisive. "Don't worry I won't go anywhere. I'll be fine." Sayuri smiled for good measure. Finally Yuri nodded and left down the stairs.

Sayuri watched her go then looked up to the stars and sighed. "Why was I brought here?" She asked out loud. She had already been gone for so long. She could see the news flashes; they would be the same as when Yuri had disappeared. Sayuri grimaced, 'except no one will miss me.' She thought. Her parents had died in a car accident when she was nine. She then ended up living in with her only other relatives that would take her in. Her grandparents on her father's side, they had owned a shrine that had been passed down through the family. But when they had died when she was sixteen her Uncle and Aunt got rid of her. Setting her up in an apartment with the promise that she would never speak to them or ask them for anything. Her late father's brother, her uncle, hadn't forgiven her father for what he had done and so Sayuri had gotten the brunt of that hatred.

"Oh well," Sayuri sighed, even though she felt the loneliness crawl up inside her and sit on her heart like a heavy stone, "At least it is better than being here." She liked living alone, Sayuri convinced herself; that way she couldn't get hurt or hurt anyone else. At home, she could live her life in peace, but here in Egypt, she didn't know what was in store for her, and that scared her the most. She just wanted her old life back.

"My lady?" A voice said behind her and Sayuri jumped. She turned around and saw a very beautiful woman bowing to her.

"Yes?"

"Lord Ramses wanted me to escort you back." The woman said as she straightened, though she kept her head down.

Sayuri looked at the girl and wasn't sure if she had ever seen her before. She mostly stayed close to Femi so she couldn't be sure. "He said that?" Sayuri asked.

"Yes My lady. His meeting is going to be longer than expected so he wishes for me to bring you back to the place you are staying."

"Oh, well okay," Sayuri said as she walked to the woman. She had beautiful long blonde hair that was plaited to her waist contrasting with her tan skin. "I'm sorry I never caught you name."

"My name is Leila My lady."

"Alright Leila. I want to say goodbye to Yuri first."

"That wouldn't be wise My Lady, "Leila said as she lifted her head to show beautiful brown eyes. "They are in deep discussion. It would be rude to interrupt them, if you don't, mind me saying."

Sayuri nodded realizing that it did make sense want Leila was saying, "Alright them lead the way." Leila bowed again, but instead of turning toward the stairs that lead downstairs she went to the side towards stairs that lead down to an outside ally.

"This way is faster My Lady." She stated. Sayuri nodded and followed her down the stairs, going slowly and looked at her feet so she placed them correctly. It was hard to see at night but she made it down safely.

"I guess I'm glad that someone is taking me back instead of Ramses. I hate him!" Sayuri mumbled to herself as she followed Leila around a corner. She looked up and saw Leila was a ways in front of her, "Oh, Leila, wait please!" She said as she jogged to catch up. Something that wasn't easy in the long dress she was wearing. She rounded another corner and came up to a sight that made her stop and step back.

A man held Leila who was unconscious. Sayuri felt a bad feeling travel over her body as she stepped back again. This caught the man's attention; he laid Leila down and came towards her.

"You aren't going anywhere. We finally find you away from that scum Ramses." He took a step towards her.

'We?' Sayuri thought as she took another step back. The man in front of her laughed causing chills to run up her back as she turned and started to run. Only to run into a huge body that caught her in his arms and pinned her arms to her side.

"You aren't going anywhere." The new voice said.

"Thank you Badru, you made it easier than having to chase her." The voice in front of her said.

"Let me go!" Sayuri yelled as she tried to get away from Badru's iron grip.

"Make her quiet Badru; we still need to bring her to Master. I would rather her not be kicking and screaming the whole way." He stated lazily, like it wasn't a big deal that he was kidnapping her.

"Let me go!" Sayuri yelled again, "HEL-," She was cut off when a fist connected just below her lungs. All the air escaped and she blacked out.

"I guess that settles everything," Ramses finally said as he stood up from his seat and stretched his arms. He had been sitting in that chair for about an hour discussing politics with Kail and Yuri.

Yuri had come down after about five minutes with being with Sayuri. Before Ramses could ask where Sayuri was she told him that she wanted to be left alone and that she wouldn't leave by herself. Ramses felt uneasy leaving her there but he also knew that she wouldn't want to be bothered by him. Throughout the discussion and catching up on old times he would keep looking at the stairs thinking that she would come down as the night carried on, but she never did.

"Ramses?" Yuri called his name for the third time trying to get his attention, this time she touched his shoulder and made him look at her, "are you alright with that?"

"With what?" Ramses asked not sure what she was talking about.

"Yuri wants that girl to come with us." Kail told him.

"What? No," Ramses said louder than he wanted, "she is staying with me."

"I don't think that is a good idea," Yuri said, "I can already see you getting attached to her Ramses. It isn't a good idea. And with her in Hittite she will be father away from Egypt and Yamanu."

"You don't think I protect her?" Ramses asked running his fingers through his hair.

"That isn't it." Yuri stated.

"No," Ramses glared at her, "She is staying with me. I can protect her fine."

"Ramses!" Yuri started again but Kail interrupted her.

"It would be better if she was with us Ramses. Kail said seriously. "We don't know exactly how she got here but we also don't know what Yamanu wants with her. It might be better to keep her with us for awhile until we find out what he is up to. You can't get attached to her. She wants to go home and we might be able to help her more if she was with us."

"What I can't make the mistake you did? Falling in love with Yuri and not letting her go home. Is that it? You want to right by one woman because you where too selfish to give up Yuri!" Ramses yelled in anger. Though when he saw Yuri wince he regretted what he said.

"You-!" Kail started but Yuri stopped him and shook his head.

"I made my choice to stay here Ramses. Sayuri wants to go home; it would be good to grant her wish." Yuri said.

Ramses looked away and scowled, his ears pounded with blood as anger ran through his veins demanding he do something. "She is staying with me and that is final. If you come up with something just send me a message like always." He gritted through his teeth, "Now if you will excuse me. She must be getting tired and I'm taking her back to the room." He went up the stairs without a second glance.

"What are we going to do?" Yuri asked Kail. "Ramses is going to get possessive and won't want to let her go, even if we do find a way to send her back." Yuri looked at the stairs with a worried look on her face.

Kail gentle grabbed her chin and kissed her from behind. Every time Kail kissed her, or even looked at her made Yuri dizzy and swim with warmly. He kissed her softly and tenderly pulling back before it became too passionate.

"Yuri, it will be alright." Before Kail could say anything else Ramses came back down the stairs his eyes wide.

"She isn't there! Sayuri is gone!"
