IMPORTANT NOTICE: Hey guys :D Well just to tell you that I'll be doing WEEKLY updating from this point forward. It's just that I would be very busy cause I'm going back to... SCHOOL T^T I give you all a most sincere apology.

Matt POV

BEEP! BEEP!

How could someone possibly use such a horrendous at this ungodly hour in the morning? Can a teenager get some peaceful sleep around here?

I slowly opened my eyes to a harsh light. In response, I started to make hissing noises (Yes, like a snake). I then opened my eyes and tried to sit up. It was very hard due to 1) the pain and 2)wires and needles all over me. I tried several more time till I gave up. This is just killing me. I then did the only thing that came to mind.

"TK!" I yelled.

As quickly as I closed my mouth, there was big bush of hair in front of me. I knew only one person who holds a forest that huge.

"Matt you're awake!" He yelled. I was then crushed by a bear hug. Although Tai is pretty lean, he can give one mean bear hug. My only way of self-defense was to punch him, but I was now disabled at the moment.

"TAI! Where am I? Where's TK?," I asked.

He then had a frown on his face. "We still can't find him Matt. Do you remember anything from last night?" He asked.

"I got hit by a car Tai not hit with amnesia," I replied.

"Oh Matt," He chuckled out. He then proceeded to give me another of his bear hugs.

"Tai you're squeezing to hard," I said. I seriously thought I was going to faint due to the pressure.

"Oh yeah. Sorry," He said sheepishly. He was blushing and turning red (HAHA!). Usually, I would be laughing my ass off, but now I had this weird feeling in my stomach. I'm probably just hungry. I was just waiting for that stomach to growl to come on cue, but... it never came. Hmmm... weird. I then looked back at Taichi, and I was about to say something until he cut me off.

"You hungry?" He asked. I think he's reading my mind! (O_O)

"Yeah, kinda," I replied. I then attempted to get up... again. Tai saw me struggling and quickly rushed to my side. He just kept babbling at me to stay still, take it easy, and just wait. At the time, those were the last things I wanted to do. I reluctantly listened to him.

"I'll be back in a few with you food, kay? Don't do anything stupid while I'm gone, you understand?" He said as maturely as he can get. Which isn't very much, I tell you. To slap his level of maturity back in his face, I stuck my tongue out at him. He chuckled at me response and dashed out to the cafeteria.

I was then left to my own devices for several minutes till I heard footsteps coming my way. He's like the Flash or something, I tell you! Anyways, a few seconds later I saw someone at my door. Unfortunately, it wasn't Tai with my food (I'm starving T_T), but my dad carrying a bag. And this wasn't ay bag, it was a takeout bag from... McDONALDS! At least it's something edible. Way better than the hospital food. Although I did not have peace and quiet, I had food. I may not seem like it, but I sure have an appetite. Damn you high metabolism. After the few seconds of thinking about all that, my dad broke the silence.

"You okay, Matt?" He asked.

My mind was still on the food and my mouth was involuntarily watering and drooling. My dad then had to snap several times to bring me back to reality.

"Oh... sorry dad," I said as I blushed from embarrassment.

"It's okay Matt. I figured that you'd be hungry." he said as he handed me the food, "So how you feeling?"

"A lot better," I said with a mouthful of fries. My dad then slapped his forehead and reminded me NOT to talk with my mouth full. I just gave him a big thumbs up. ^_^

After that delicious meal (It's better than hospital food), Tai came in with a tray of food. Did it really deserve to be called that? Anyways he set the tray on top of my lap, and sat at my side. He then told me to dig in. At least he didn't know about the McDonalds, or else he would go berserk. Sadly, I thought to soon. He saw something from the corner of his eyes and pulled out the McDonalds bag. He looked at me like a disappointed mother. Oh the agony!

Daisuke POV

That son of a bitch just slapped me. Grrr... I really thought he was my best friend. Why would he do this to me? Although I'm usually slow at getting things, I've had strokes of genius lately. I now realized that Ken liked... no loved me in that sort of way. To be honest, I've never viewed Ken like that. He was like a brother to me. I believe it would've been better if he'd told me earlier. Like I said, I wouldn't get together with him because I think of him as a brother, but I would've told him how I felt and that it's better to stay friends. If only that happened, we could have avoided all... this.

"Ken... why?" I asked. I did my best to make the strain in my voice known. I was honestly broken, not as much during the Keru incident, but still broken.

"Because I love you Daisuke," He replied.

"Is slapping, restraining, and kidnapping me a way of showing your 'love'?" I said angrily.

"It was the only way Dai-chan. I need you. You can't love... him. It's simply not logical!" He yelled.

I then looked into Ken's eyes and I saw the pleading in eyes. He really did care about me, but I can't commit to someone I don't love... in that way.

"Ken... I love and care for you with all my heart and soul. It's true. But that love and care is love and care for a brother. Ken you're like a brother to me, and I cannot love you... in that way.

Right after I said that, I received a barrage of slaps to the face. Other than the sounds of him slapping me, I could hear him mumbling something aloud. He was chanting "Snap out of it Dai" over and over again. Got it felt like my cheeks were ready to burst out. I was thinking on how to stop him and came across the thought of biting him. I then took that idea out because it'll just make him more angry. It left me with only one last option.

"STOP IT RIGHT NOW!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. Surprisingly, it actually worked. Ken stopped slapping me. Hooray! I then looked around for my Keru-chan, but... I couldn't find him anywhere in the room. I seriously started to panic.

"Ken... WHERE ARE YOU KEEPING TAKERU?!" I asked ever so nicely.

"That's none of your concern Dai-chan-" I immediately cut him off.

"Don't you ever call me that," I said. I swear I could feel a nerve popping up on my forehead.

Ken remained silent as if my words hurt him greatly. As much as I hate his guts for doing this to Keru and I, I feel a bit sorry for him. He just wants me to be with him. The problem is that I can't commit to him. It would be worse if I get together with him and I don't really mean it. I'd be living a lie.

Unfortunately, Ken recovered quickly from his moping and was madder than ever. He started to slap my face even harder and then proceeded to gag me. The thing tasted horrible. I successfully calmed myself down and tried to talk through the gag.

"Wha are ouu oooing tu meh?" I hoped he got the message.

"I'm going to make love to you. So you WILL love me," he said in a demanding tone.

To be honest, I was never scared this bad in my whole life. Okay... maybe not; battling MaloMyostimon wins the cup by a few points. Anyways, I began to cry at that point. I usually don't cry that much, but this was one of those rare times. I was pouring tears like no tomorrow. Although most people don't know this, I'm still a virgin. I've been waiting for that special someone * cough * Takeru to take it away. I now know how my Keru felt when he was raped by Willis. I seriously want to kill that guy, but the best legal thing I can do is send him to rot in jail. Sadly, I'm in no place to do such a thing now.

As Ken was preparing us for to make loveor in other words torture me to death, a million thoughts were running through my head. I was wondering who was looking for me, how my friends and family are and all those other things you think about when you're kidnapped. I then felt something wet on my ass. It was wiggling. Grrrr... it was Ken's tongue. People usually say it feels good, but now I was feeling quite the opposite. To show my disliking, I kicked him off. I'm quite flexible with my legs due to soccer (HAHA! ^_^). Ken was really annoyed by this, but I was to stuck in my own self-praising to care. He then made me sniff something and then my vision started to blur.

"Why... Ken?" I asked drowsily.

The last words I heard from him were "I love you".

Next thing I saw was... nothing.

Takeru POV

"Let me go you son of bitch! Let me the fuck go you coward!" I screamed over and over again.

"Tsk Tsk Keru. That language isn't going to get you anywhere," He chimed. Oh how I would love to pound him into oblivion. If only these restraints weren't here. Since I had no other choice, I asked nicely.

"Willis, dear, will you please let Daisuke and I go?" I asked in an annoyingly nice way. After I asked, he was in deep thought, but I bet he was just pretending.

"Why how nice of you to ask Keru, but the answer is no," He replies. Oh well, it was worth the shot.

I gritted my teeth to his generosity. I was just bidding my time on this table restrained. I looked towards Willis, who was drinking some juice of some sort. It just reminded me how thirsty and hungry I was. As always, my stomach growled on cue.

"Hungry?" He asked.

"I think it was a monster hiding under my bellybutton," I said sarcastically.

"Haha real funny Keru. Hear have some bread. I'm not that cruel, but still very cruel," He said as he handed me some bread. At least it was something. He then brought a bottle of water to my mouth and let get some fluids into me.

A few minutes later, I assumed Willis got bored and wanted me to entertain him.

"Options 1 or 2 Keru?" He asked. I seriously didn't want to find out what either options were due to the mischievous grin on his face. At the exact moment, a plan came into my mind.

"So Willis, how have you been doing?" I asked.

He looked at me really with a questionable look. To most people, Willis seemed like a really smart guy, and he really is. The thing is that he lacks one thing, street smarts. He might be good with numbers and all that stuff like Koushiro, but when it comes down to the smarts that Tai and the other have. Willis is vulnerable. That's the genius of my plan. (Mwhahahaha!)

"I'm alright..." He said nervously.

"Willis, I've known you for a long time, and I know can easily tell when you're lying," I said bluntly. I've seriously been hanging out with Tai and Dai too much. Oh never mind fuck it. Anyways, Willis looked at me with a big frown, and for a moment, I sincerely felt sorry for him.

"Well..." He choked on his words. I really wanted to get it out of him. The reason is that I knew that he hooked up with someone after we broke up. Although he raped me before, I always had a feeling there was something else involved. As of what I heard, he was enjoying his time with his new lover. It just doesn't make sense of him coming after me when he has someone to be with.

"Willis, you can tell me," I said with concern.

"My parents Keru... they're dead," He said as he started to pour out the tears.

CHAP. 10 END

What happened to Willis' parents? What will Ken do to Dai? How will Takeru react to Willis' news? Will there be any complications with Matt's health? How's the search for the two missing boys going?

Some of these questions and maybe more will be answered in the next chapter of "Walking Hope".

PLEASE Review! :D
