Zack's P.O.V.

After we had arrived at home I was talking to Fletch about how we could get Tyne. It was then that a letter arrived. Jerry ran over grabbing it. "dada! Letter for ya!" he yelled running over to me. I took it and ripped it open. I opened the letter and read it. "everything alright Zack?" Fletch asked worried. "yeah it is now." I said. I put it down grabbing my axe. Fletch picked it up and read it. "you better not be goin' after her!" he said looking up at me. "course I am!" I snapped. "how so you know it ain't a trap?!" he snapped. I ignored him and ran out. Fletch growled softly. "you lot stay here!" he said looking at the others. They nodded and he turned following after me. I took off towards the desert outside of the city.

I stopped at the desert and Fletch ran up to me. I walked off into the desert with Fletch following me closely. "Zack this could be a trap." he said and I shook my head. "I can't afford to take the chance. Either it is or it isn't. I got a fifty fifty chance." I murmured. I kept a look out around the place and then I saw someone not far off. I ran off towards it and I could slowly make out the outline of Tyne. I sped up and Fletch followed me. "Tyne!" I yelled and she looked up at me. She looked worse than she had the time before. She struggled to move and Fletch frowned. "hey dude. Check this out." he said and I looked back at him to see part of a chain in the sand. I got closer to Tyne to see her with her mouth covered and she had chains around her hands still. "what the fuck?" I murmured. "oh you're too easy." I heard a voice say. I growled turning around to see Kritanta. "you bastard!" I snapped. "you feel for the letter." he said smiling. I looked back at Tyne. She struggled pulling against the chains. Kritanta yanked on it and she whimpered stopping. I glared at Kritanta. "I warned you it could be a trap." Fletch whispered. "mum!" I then heard a voice yell. We turned around to see Kara and Taya running over. Kritanta's men grabbed us and held us back. Draco suddenly appeared and shot out a blast of dark power. It hit Kara and a chain tied her up. She suddenly stopped as he pulled her back towards him. Taya gasped. "Kara no!" she yelled and someone grabbed her pulling her back. "miss me Tay?" John hissed and she gasped. "let me go!" she snapped. "oh I will. Once you're at home and restricted." he said. "thanks for the help Draco!" he yelled and Draco smiled darkly. "take care of those boys Kritanta and you take care of her John." he snapped. Kritanta nodded pulling us away. Draco kicked Tyne in the stomach. "and let that be a lesson to you not to mess with a god!" he snapped. He grabbed her chain and pulled her and Kara away. "no! Don't touch my kids!" Fletch hissed but we couldn't get out. The others vanished from sight.

I turned and glared at Kritanta. I snapped out of the ropes holding me and grabbed my axe. "you bitch!" I snapped. He glared at me. "bring it you bastard!" he growled. He ran at me and I dodged it. I swung my axe slamming it into his back. He howled turning to face me. He ran at me again. He kicked me in the stomach. He pulled his sword out and slashed at me. He cut my chest and I howled dropping my axe. He walked over putting it to my neck. Fletch growled breaking out of the ropes. He punched the men in his way before stabbing them. He grabbed my axe. "Zack!" he yelled and I looked at him. He threw my axe at me and I smiled catching it. I slammed it into Kritanta's leg and he fell to the ground. I slammed it into his back again cutting down. He glared at me. "you bastard. I never should have let you get away." he hissed. "no. I never should have let you live the last time I had you beggin' for your life!" I growled. "but for doin' this to my daughter again, you will die now!" I roared slamming my axe back on him. He was getting weak but still tried to fight on. Fletch kicked him in the head before holding him down. I cut into him more pulling down. He went limp and I pulled my axe out. It dripped blood and I sighed looking up at Fletch. "I'm sorry Fletch. I should have listened to ya." I whispered. "I just made you lose two of ya daughters and we both lost Tyne." I said. He walked over and hugged me. "look it's alright. We'll get Taya, Kara, and Tyne back." he said. I held him tightly. "but the hardest is for you. You lost both Tyne and Kara to the most blood thirsty killer. And they're so important to ya." he whispered. "let's just get home and work somethin' out." I said and he nodded. He stuck close by me on the trip home.

We got home and Calley was waiting for us. She ran over hugging me. "I'm sorry. We tried to stop them from going but they wanted to follow." she whispered. I held her tightly. "it's alright. But John has Taya and Draco has both Tyne and Kara now." I said. "what?!" Shihzuka and Brewster both said looking at me. "don't worry. We'll get them back." Fletch said and they nodded. Calley took me inside and sat me on the bed. Rox, Nix, Jerry, and Tia came over sitting with me. Rox held me gently. "don't worry dad. We'll kick their ass." she whispered and I smiled. Fletch sat down and Tahatan, Abby, and Kevin dived onto his lap. There was a bang at the door and Calley opened it to see Shikra there with both Blade and Blaze in a basket. There was a note. Calley took it and read it. "to whoever finds them. please care for them. I can't. Their loving mother, Tyne." she said and Fletch took them both close. Shikra sat by him watching them. Vytus and Zosy sat by her. "think they miss her as much as us?" Kevin asked and Fletch nodded slowly. Kyle sat down by Rox leaning on her. Zab sat behind her holding her tightly. Brew, Wil, Koko, and Cormac were silent in the doorway. Reuben and Shad raced in with Kyron, Nya, Tara, and Kai. "something's wrong ain't it?" Shad asked. Calley nodded and whispered all that had happened. They went silent and Shad ran over to Fletch crying. He sat the twins down in the basket and held Shad. "we'll find them. Don't worry." he whispered. Reuben sat down next to them and sighed. It had been a very painful day for all of us.

Nessy walked over with a folder full of papers. "here you go Tara. That's everything." she said. "thank you darling." she said taking it. "what's in there?" I asked. "papers to prove Tyne owns Taya and Shihzuka. And that you have the soul custody over Tyne to try and prevent Draco from keeping her away." Nessy said and I smiled. Calley came out on the phone. I looked at her and she smiled. She hung up and looked at me. "don't worry baby. We're getting more help in. my siblings are coming with my parents to help us." she said kissing my cheek. I purred holding her close. "how long till they get here?" I asked. "about an hour." she said and I nodded. Tia giggled grabbing my jacket and pulling herself up slowly. She was very little for her age but that's no surprise since she was born early and very sick, but she was growing slowly. "dada." she said touching my cheek gently. I purred nuzzling her. "my baby girl huh?" I asked and she giggled hugging my neck. She sighed leaning on me more. "I think someone's tired." I whispered and she looked up at me. She had been getting easily worn out recently. I kissed her cheek and Calley took her off to bed. I sighed softly and Nessy sat on my lap. "so have you got a plan?" she asked leaning on me and I shrugged. "I dunno. I might. And if I do I'll tell it when Cal's family get here." I said and she nodded. Tara sat at the table flicking through the papers. She picked up a piece and read through it. She sighed looking out the window. "what's wrong?" I asked. "if we can't win this, that means Draco can keep Tyne." she said and I growled. "we're gonna win this. He's not keeping her from me." I said and she sighed. "I hope so." she murmured.

An hour passed and there was a knock at the door. Rox opened it and smiled. "mum! They're here!" she called and Calley came out and ran over hugging them. They all came in and sat down. Calley sat by me leaning on me gently. I smiled at her. "well, with this many of us, Draco doesn't stand a chance." I said and she nodded. "I hate to tell you Cal but you're not gonna like who we saw hanging around here." Michael said and she looked at him. "who did you see?" she asked. "Derek." he said and she grabbed me tightly. "don't worry. He won't get ya." I said kissing her cheek. "did he see you guys?" I asked. "no. we got away before he could." Mavis said. "so you're still safe here but probably not for long." Ziva said and I sighed. "that's all I want." I murmured. "what?!" Jenny asked. "you want him to come?" she asked. "no. I didn't mean it like that." I said and she nodded. "well I saw we should move anyway." Maxie said looking at me. "for the family's safety we should." he said and I nodded slowly. We got our stuff packed up and packed into the eighteen wheeler of mine. We got the kids in the cars and we headed off.

We were driving along the dirt roads heading out of the city. Calley held my hand gently and I smiled tightening my hold on her. I sighed focusing on the road. Fletch was right behind me in the car followed by the others. I felt bad leaving without Kara or Taya. I just had to keep reminding myself that things would work out alright eventually. I sighed softly keeping a watch on things outside. We drove for hours through the desert. We had to stop at times to let the kids run around for a while. I sighed leaning back at one of the stops. Calley came over handing me a drink. "you miss them don't you?" she asked and I nodded. She kissed me gently and I smiled kissing her back. "we'll get the back." she murmured and I nodded. It wasn't that I didn't believe her, it was just I didn't know when it would happen. We got the kids rounded up again and back into the cars. We then headed off. We were speeding down the road when something caught my attention. I slammed on the brakes and got out. "what are ya doin'?!" Fletch yelled looking at me. "Kara?!" I yelled and she looked up at me and smiled.

Kara's P.O.V.

I heard someone yell my name and I looked up and smiled at uncle Zack. I ran over towards them. He ran over and grabbed me close to him. I snuggled up to him. "my baby princess." he whispered and I nodded. "how did you get out?" he asked. "oh I just escaped when his back was turned." I said and he sighed. He kissed my cheek. "good thing you did." he said and I purred. He brought me over to the truck and dad smiled looking at me. He got out hugging me tightly. I hugged him and smiled darkly. 'you have no idea what a mistake you are making.' I thought to myself. And they really didn't.
