I know you all hate me now. And you are right on getting mad. I got grounded because a teacher switched my perfect ten with the donkey´s grade. Whatever. On with the story!

Recap:

"Here are all the memory cards that contain useful data to put that bastard behind the bars."

We all went to see what had happened, It turns out a maid just broke a vase. We came back, and that´s where the real problem begins…

"THE MEMORY CARDS ARE GONE!"

End Recap.

Ikuto POV

I swore I saw Rima about to faint along with Ami. She indeed suffered a beating for those memory cards. Luckily Nagihiko was behind them to catch them in time. I tightened my hands until my knuckles were all white. He was going to pay for this. Amu covered her mouth with her hands in complete astonishment.

"But… this is impossible…" She kneeled as tears started flooding out of her beautiful amber eyes.

"THIS CAN´T BE!" She shouted in despair. She looked like she was ready to die. That´s when she broke. Cascades came from her eyes, as she was trying to clean the mess out from her face.

"Now, I know this is serious, but crying won´t solve it. We have to do something about it if we want to get Amu out of this ruckus." Utau calmly said. Amu wiped her tears away and sat on one of the couches. I sat next to her and hugged tightly. I didn´t want to see her suffer like this anymore. The rest of them followed suit and calmed down. He could be anywhere now.

"Okay. He can be anywhere now. We´ll need Rima´s special tracking system, Amu´s cellphone, enough walkie-talkies for all of us and a GPS." Utau said, automatically taking the boss charge of the mission. Everyone went to look for what Utau requested.

Ten minutes passed, everyone was there except for Amu. I went looking for her; she was probably on her bedroom. I wonder what she´s doing. I saw that her room was upside down. Everything was a mess. She was surprised when she heard me knock.

"Ikuto! My cellphone! Is gone!" Amu said while looking through her purse. I wasn´t surprised at all. I mean, Hotori does have the guts to steal.

"Calm down, where was the last time you saw it?" I calmly asked her. She looked at me with an ´are you serious?´ look. I just nodded.

"It was on my purse. Since I shooed you from the house, it has been there ever since." She said with an upset tone. Yeah, no doubt it was Hotori´s work.

"Come on, we gotta go to the living room." I got an idea from where could it be. Amu didn´t hesitate and went straight to the living room without uttering a word. Sheesh. She´s even worse than Yoru when he´s hungry.

We went back to see everyone waiting for us. The girls saw us with expectant look, while the guys were snickering behind their backs.

"What took you guys so long? I know you guys love each other but, please save it for later." Rima said while she drank from her tea. That broke the boys. They cracked a big laugh while the girls skillfully kicked them with pillows, making them shut up. I´ll have to remember to ask them to teach me how to do that.

Amu and I took our respective places and began plotting.

"Ikuto, the cellphone was gone, wasn´t it?" Utau expectantly asked. It´s like she read my mind. I just nodded and waited for her to proceed.

"I thought so. Rima, where´s your tracking device?" Utau turned to look at the midget that had some sort of tablet on her tighs. Utau took it and turned it on.

"Since the most probable thing is that Hotori stole it, he should carry it with himself. If he is still in the zone, we might… Aha!" Utau smiled at the monitor. We all got closer to her to take a look. There was a beeping red dot moving slowly through the monitor.

"He´s near the park! Ikuto, Nagi, Kukai! Go on one of Amu´s cars and track him down. Here, take this!" Utau handed me the tablet. I took it without a second to waste and ran through the hallways with the guys following me closely. We arrived to see a bunch of expensive cars and some American ones. Kukai was eyeing a Lamborghini that was parked near the exit.

"No Kukai. We´ll take that one." I pointed to an old, rust van. Kukai frowned but didn´t complain. Nagihiko was already in the driver seat. I should trust him this time. We´ll need his fighting skills later. I sat on the one in the front and Kukai in the back seat.

"Okay, here goes nothing." And we sped off.

Amu POV

I was anxious at the fact that the memory cards were in danger. And now a countdown has begun. A little less than four hours and my parents would be here forcing me to marry a thief.

I was pacing through the hall while Ami and Utau watched me with amusement. It was indeed strange to see me this worried. Rima was just nibbling on her cookie. She was anxious too. I wonder why. I stopped and looked at her.

"Rima, What´s wrong?" I sat next to her and put my hand on her shoulder, taking her out of her thoughts.

"…Nothing." She was blushing. She was concerned for Nagihiko´s sake. How cute. I would tease her if it weren´t for her cold temper. And I truly didn´t want to be on her cold side.

"You can tell me. We won´t tell anyone." I smiled at her. This was my last try. She would get mad if I kept insisting. She sighed and put her cookie down.

"…Nagihiko." She said as low as she could, then covering her red face. How cute. She actually cares for him. I mentally awed while turning to see Utau in the same condition, but she was nibbling at her nails. She only did that when she was really upset. I suppose it´s… Kukai?

"And you?" I popped Utau´s bubble. She looked at me with nervous eyes. We were all worried for the same thing: if the guys get into a car crash.

I would be really upset and wouldn´t bear it if Ikuto was in an accident because of me. I would practically die in the moment I get the notice. It would be the same thing if I get to marry Tadase. A dull, lifeless wedding. Disgusting. All I could do was to pray for their sake. I hope they get the cards too. I decided to call Kukai from the house phone.

Kukai POV

I silently pouted while I looked at the silent guys in the front. Nagi was exceeding the speed limit when he noticed that the dot was moving faster. I think he got into a taxi or something. I just hope we arrive on time. I would hate to be useless to someone in a crisis like this one. Suddenly, my cellphone started vibrating in my pocket, I took is and answered without looking who was the caller.

"This is Souma." I said with a dull tone.

"Kukai? Is something wrong?" I noticed it was Hinamori, who answered with a worried tone. I quickly changed my tone to one more cheerful one, which made Ikuto to turn around.

"Yo, what´s up Hinamori? We´re on our way to catch the bastard." That definitely got Ikuto´s attention. She laughed a little.

"The girls and I just want to make sure you are okay. We don´t want any of you to get hurt." I could practically see her smiling from the other line. I looked at Ikuto, he looked jealous.

"Okay mommy, I´ll give daddy the phone." I jokingly said while I gave Ikuto the phone. She was still pouting when I gave him the phone. I wonder what will happen now.

Ikuto POV

I took Kukai´s phone to hear her pouting in the other line. It was something funny to hear.

"hello?" She suddenly froze. I smirked at that.

"Hey, Take that filthy smirk outta your face, you pervert!" I silently laughed at her. She was funny to talk with. That´s why I love her so much.

"We´re okay, we´re about to arrive. By the way, Nagihiko is an excellent chauffer." I could hear Nagi muttering thanks, while his eyes were focused on the road. She laughed from the other line. I smiled at that.

"Okay then, then the girls will rest at ease. The deadline is in four hours flat. Take care and make sure to get those cards back." Amu reminded. So she really is concerned for me.

"It´s a promise. We´ll see you guys later then. See ya." She bid farewell and hung up. I gave the cellphone to Kukai while Nagi was slowing down.

"You guys gain some advance. I´ll tag along later." I got what he meant and pulled Kukai and the tablet with me. Nagihiko sped off, leaving some dust land on our clothes.

"Well, here goes nothing." Kukai and I sped off to find the one that could ruin Amu´s life forever.
