Sousuke walked into the room where the meeting was taking place. He looked around and saw Kaname was sitting with Mao while Kurtz was walking up to him.
" Hey buddy, I saved you a seat over here with two lovely ladies."
Kurtz said as the two men walked over and Sousuke sat next to Kaname while Kutz sat next to Mao. Then they all turned their heads when they saw Tessa walking into the room and stood infront of her men.
" Thank you everyone for coming. I am sorry but this is a situation that must be discussed. Over the past 24 hours we have been doing research for this organization called Hotar. One of their employees had tried to kidnap Miss Chidori, a whispered because of the use they could have on her. After receving some information from a reliable source, we believe they are using a combination of an armslave with a whispered somehow connected to the AS so they would have more control and have a better defense system."
Tessa explained while everyone stayed quiet and listened to her continue to talk.
" Unfortunately we do not know at this time where their main base is located at but hopefully we will uncover more information in the next 48 hours so until then, I want everyone to be aware of their surroundings and we will be going to shore in the next few hours and hopefully gather information on the island. Any questions?" Tessa asked and looked around and saw that no one raised their hand.
" You are all dismissed." Tessa said as people began getting out of their seats and walking out of them room. Tessa continued to stay in the room as Sousuke, Kaname, Mao and Kurtz walked out of the room.
" Hey Kaname, come walk with me to my room okay? We need to have a girl talk." Mao said as they all stood outside of the room.
" Girl talk? Hey why can't we come too! I know a lot about girls." Kurtz said with a smile on his face but the smile quickly vanished when he was suddenly smacked by Mao.
" No you pervert! Come on Kaname lets go." Mao yelled out as her and Kaname walked off while Sousuke and Kurtz was left by themselves.
" Hey Kaname. Do you have plans tonight?" Mao asked Kaname as she walked her into her room.
" No not at the moment why?" Kaname asked her.
" Well everyone is going to be hanging out tonight so I wanted to see if you were up to having some fun. They are having a party at a hotel on the shore and everyone at the sub is going." Mao explained.
Kaname looked down on the floor and thought about it.
" I would but I don't know... I don't like how I look." Kaname said as she walked up to a mirror and the bedroom and examined herself. Mao knew Kaname was talking about her bandages and her scars.
" Don't worry. I can fix you up in no time! You will be the most gorgeous lady in the room. I promise." Mao said with excitement. She knew her friend had been through a lot and wanted her to have some fun and relax.
" Fine... sounds like fun." Kaname said then the two went on to discussed on what Kaname should wear.
A few hours later, Kaname looked at herself through Mao's mirror to make sure that she looked okay. She had on a black dress with thin straps with the dress ending above her knees. Her hair was pulled back in a red ribbon as usual and Mao had taken her bandages off of her face, her arm and her chest. Kaname smiled, impressed that she didn't have any major scars on her face and thought that she looked amazing. Mao had left the room a while back to check on something even though she didn't give Kaname the details but she couldn't wait for her so she left the room, wanting to show off her new look to everyone, including walked out of her room feeling like a new person. She started walking down the hallway but stopped suddenly when she noticed Sousuke standing in his usual uniform looking at the drink machine. She was about to start walking again and approach him when she saw another solder walk up to him and he said something to Sousuke that she couldn't hear because she was too far away then the two men started walking off in the opposite direction from her. Kaname stood there watching them walked away until she heard her name called out.
" Kaname!."
Kaname turned around and saw Mao walking up to her.
" We're going to be late come on."
Mao grabbed Kaname's hand as they both started running in the hallway.
" Melissa! Where are we going?"
Mao stopped running and turned to face her.
" Tessa made arrangements at a hotel on this island for us to relax and have some fun! Did you forget the reason why you are dressed up? It's about five minutes away from here."
" But is everyone going to be there?"
Kaname asked since she got all dressed up and didn't want to miss a chance for Sousuke not seeing her like this.
" Yeah everyone's there including Sousuke. I made sure of it so he's going to meet us there. Come on we've got to hurry."
The two girls started running again so they wouldn't miss there chance at the party.
About ten minutes later the two girls had finally made it to the hotel and entered the dining room where they saw everyone there. Kurtz was cracking jokes with fellow solders around the punch bowl and Kaname moved her head and noticed Sousuke talking to Tessa and Commander Mardukas.
" Hey Kaname. I'm going to go get a beer from the bar, I'll be right back okay. Oh and make sure Sousuke notices you."
Mao winked at Kaname as she walked off leaving Kaname all by herself. She then looked over and saw that Sousuke was having a good time talking to Tessa.
' I guess I can talk to him later.'
Kaname thought then she heard her name.
" Kaname." She looked over and saw Kurtz walking up to her.
" How is my lovely angel tonight? You look absolutely stunning." Kurtz smiled at her.
" Thanks Kurtz. I really appreciate that. I'm doing pretty good."
Kaname said with a smile on her face but then all of the sudden she started to get a headache again and fell to the floor, clutching her fist on each side of her head. Flashes of the Arbalest and words kept appearing in her thoughts.
" Kaname what's wrong?"
Kurtz said as he and the other solders around them tried to help her out.
"Ah!"
Kaname had screamed so loud everyone in the room had heard her including Sousuke. Sousuke stopped his movement and looked over and saw Kaname crouching on the floor, holding her head in her hands while people were surrounding her.
" Kaname!"
Sousuke yelled out and ran in her direction. Everyone moved out of his way so he was finally able to reach her. Sousuke stood over her and bend over.
" Kaname are you okay?".
Kaname had realized her headache suddenly disappeared. She was surprised which this time the headache only lasted 30 seconds. Kaname lifted up her head and looked up at Sousuke.
" Sousuke... it happened again but it's okay, I'm fine now." Kaname stood up.
" I'm sorry everyone. Please go back to what you were doing. I think I just need to go for a walk. I'll be back in a little bit."
Kaname said then started walking away but felt a hand grabbing on to her hand. She stopped and turned around and saw Sousuke holding her hand.
" I'm going with you Kaname."
Kaname smiled as they walked out of the room. Kaname let go of his hand and started to walk on her own.
" You can go back with Tessa if you want."
" Huh? I rather be here with you. Has your headache come back yet?"
" No it hasn't... hey Sousuke?"
" Yes?" Sousuke asked.
" Well it's just." Suddenly Kaname was cut off by gunshots.
" Kaname get down!"
Sousuke pushed Kaname on the floor with him laying on top of her. When she finally opened her eyes, she noticed a man hovering over them with a gun pointing at her head.
" Get off of her."
The solder said as he kicked Sousuke so hard, he flew across the hall.
" Sousuke!"
Kaname screamed his name out causing him to open up his eyes. Then the solder came up behind Kaname and hit her in the back of her neck, causing her to pass out in the enemy's arms. He then noticed the solder running off with Kaname unconscious in his arms. He got up as quickly as he could but by the time he pulled out his gun and aimed, Kaname was no where in sight.
" Damn!"
Sousuke yelled out and ran back to where the party was held.
" We've been attacked!"
Sousuke yelled out while running into the room. He noticed everyong crowding around in a circle including Mao, Kurtz and Tessa so he ran towards them to see what the situation was.
" Oh Sagara! Kaname has been captured!"
Tessa told Sousuke. He noticed a man injured in the middle of the circle with one of the other seargents holding a gun to his balls.
" Who is that guy?" Sousuke asked him captain.
" He works for Hotar. He is a foolish character that doesn't know how to deal with a hostage situation." Tessa explained to him.
" Captain!"
The solder who had been talking back and forth with the tratior had stood up and walked towards them while everyone else pulled out there guns on him.
" I know where Miss Chidori is."
" Where is she?"
Sousuke yelled out with sweat of worry became visible on his head.
" They had taken her to the Hotar headquarters."
" Where is that?" I must rescue her!"
Sousuke yelled out with everyone around him turned and stood with him with amusement.
" I will give you directions but I strongly suggest you should get some back up."
" We're his backup." Sousuke turned and saw Mao speak up.
" Yep we can't have anything happen to our angel." Kurtz yelled out with him winking at Sousuke.
" Alright then." Tessa spoked up.
" You know what to do Sagara, but please be careful."
" Roger. Mao, can you get directions while me and Kurtz get ready?"
" Yes." Mao said as she started talking to the solder while Sousuke and Kurtz ran out of the room to get ready for an attack.
Thank you for all of the reviews. I appreciate them all!
