Much love to my readers esp. my reviewers. I decided to give you all an early present by posting this early (you're welcome :P) and I made this one a longer than the last one. Thanks for the love~3

Chapter 4 up!

She's just about to reach the doors of the train when she is swooped up by a pair of hands that grip either side of her waist and into the sky. She struggles against the hands of her captor and the hands' grip slips causing her to plummet. She doesn't scream, but inside she was yelling at herself for not noticing how far she was off the ground, and since her wings were tucked inside of her coat, she is unable to use them. However, before she hits the bottom, the hands that previously gripped her waist now held her back and her legs in a bridal position.

"Stop struggling, unless you plan on falling to your death."

She looked up into the face of Kite. She was grateful that he caught her, but annoyed as well because if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have to fear plummeting to her death.

"If you didn't try to fool me, I wouldn't need to have to carry you like this in the air." Tori blinked twice. She wasn't aware that she ended up voicing her complaint. She blushed slightly in embarrassment. Kite's eyes flickered to her face. "Don't get too comfortable. I never wanted to carry you, it was simply necessary that I do it." Tori's face lost its red tint and instead she ended up glaring at him.

"I am not blushing because you're carrying me, jerk." She stated angrily. He his head turned slightly for her to see his glare that was directed at her. She didn't want to seem weak, but Kite's glare was enough to send people cowering. He quickly turned his head back forwards to see the direction in which they were flying in. Once his piercing eyes left her face, her face turned downwards into her lap where her hands lay entwined with each other. The rest of the flight was spent in silence, neither of the two attempting to make conversation.

Once the two landed at the top of a building (Tori wasn't really keeping track, she really didn't want to look up and see Kite's face) Tori curiously tried to memorize anything significant that would help her for her escape, but before she could notice the most essential part of her surroundings, her hand was being pulled at by Kite as he dragged her down the flight of stairs leading to the inside of the building. She was pulled towards one of the rooms along a somewhat narrow corridor and roughly pushed inside. Kite closed the door behind him and stood in front of it as to not allow her to escape from the room and attempt to flee (obviously he would catch her again, but the struggle would be too bothersome). Tori finally plopped down after realizing that escape was impossible, at least for the time being.

"Alright then, you, if you're going to hold me hostage the least you could do is tell me your name!" Tori huffed out, exasperated.

"Very well then, if that is your only request," Kite replied as he stood from his laid back stance against the wall. "My name is Kite Tenjo. I am a number hunter, as you know, and I am the sworn enemy of Yuma. That is all I can tell you, for the rest is classified. Now, it would be fair as to you to return the favor."

Tori contemplated this and decided that he was right regardless of the current situation. However, she was unsure of how to reply since her entire life was a complete lie. He was getting impatient with her silence and she decided to reply, "Yuma calls me Tori." She then pulled her legs towards herself and wrapped her arms around them, curling herself into a ball.

Kite, however, was completely thrown off by her response. His eyes narrowed as he tried to understand her reasoning for answering that way. Yuma calls her Tori? Doesn't she call herself that too? "Yuma calls you Tori?"

Tori nodded solemnly, but figured that that wasn't what he was asking. She sighed and figured that she might as well just tell him the truth. She stood up and turned to face the opposite wall where Kite was and started to shimmy off of her coat, while Kite was looking at her, perplexed. What was she trying to accomplish? She folded it and placed it on the bed she was sitting on. She sighed again and turned to face him, staring directly into his eyes.

"I do not own a number, I am a number. My real name is Number 51: Daybreak Aurora," she states as she flips her card at gleans slightly under the light. Kite steps forward and plucks the card from her fingers and stares at the card. It had a mirror like image of the girl that stood in front of him. He peeks from above the card as his eyes flicker to her before staring at the card intently again. He then proceeded to tuck the card into his extra deck strapped to his waist. Aurora watched him half-heartedly, she was still trying to process what had just occurred and she was second guessing her choice of giving him the card, but figured this was ultimately the best course to take. Being kidnapped wasn't something she was planning on letting happen, but it beats wandering in the forest for who knows how long.

"I'm letting you keep my card," Kite scoffed inwardly at her words, she was letting him keep the card? Yeah, right, "as long as you don't use me against Yuma. I may not be human, but I still have a mind and heart. I will turn against you," Tori firmly states.

"You can't turn against me, especially when I'm using you in a duel," Kite assures.

"Do you want to test that theory?" Aurora asks raising an eyebrow, daring him to try. Kite sighs.

"Fine, I won't use you against Yuma for the time being. In turn, you are not allowed to leave this place without me or my consent. You will stay here and are free to move anywhere in this floor, except for ether door at the ends of this hallway. Do I make myself clear?" Kite questioned.

"So, I will stay here until I am of use to you?" Aurora asked Kite. He nods and leaves. She digs through her bag and takes a picture of her and her friends and clips it onto the end of the vanity that was in the room. She quickly scans the faces of her friends, Bronk, Caswell, Flip, Rio; even Shark was in the picture. Finally her eyes landed on Yuma who was caught in a tug-of-war between herself and Cathy. She loved Yuma to the bottom of her heart and now, he will probably never know. If she had known that her life was going to take this huge and sudden turn she would have confessed to him. Tori slumps on the bed again and lies down onto her left side eyes beginning to water.

"I'm sorry, everyone, but mostly you Yuma. You're my best friend and I love you. I'm sorry I fooled you this morning and this long…but even I didn't know this was going to happen…" she trailed off. "I miss you," Tori whispered as she closed her eyes feigning sleep.

I have a surprise for you all! The next chapter will be Yuma's POV. Find out what happens in the next chapter :)
