Life had fallen into place quite nicely right about now. Lacus and Kira were happier than they ever were, Siegel were happy for them, and their relationship was smooth and mutual. They were always cautious of how far they took things, and tried not to overdo things in public. Kira started working at Clyne Inc. and was made Vice President. However, he also worked at the Programming department whenever he wasn't needed as Vice President, since they couldn't do things without him. The OS that Kira gave them was so complex, that only Kuzzey and Tolle were able to even comprehend it. It got even more difficult when Kira announced their newest OS. It was split into 2 parts. Freedom, and Justice. After they decided the workload each side had, Kira called Athrun, and struck up a deal between the two companies. Justice was to be assigned to Athrun's and Freedom to Kira's. However, despite all this peace and happiness, things were about to go downhill. Siegel Clyne was on a business trip to the PLANTS, and Kira was put in charge, that's when Jibril began his plan.

Local Supermarket, 1:33 PM

Lacus was out shopping, planning on making dinner that night. She rarely gets to cook, since they usually go out and eat, or the chef they have cooks for them, but she felt like cooking something for herself and Kira tonight, since her father wasn't home. Maybe something might happen after that... but she knew she had to wait, no matter what. She promised that she'll wait till after she was married for that.

' Hmm.. roast beef? Or Teriyaki? ' Lacus was thinking which Kira might like better, as she held the two up and compared.
Just then, someone grabbed her hand and pulled her to the back of the store, slamming her right into a few empty stacked boxes.
" Ow! " Lacus screamed, she had no idea who this person was, but she was afraid what he might do.
" Don't worry, our boss wanted you alive, and safe, brought to him " a burly and tall security guard in a black suit said, as he sprayed her with some type of gas. She instantly fell asleep.
The guard snuck her into a large rectangular box, and carried it out with a lifter car, and loaded it up on a truck, and started to drive away, towards the Venetech building, formerly known as LOGOS, before it merged with George Allster's company. Few people knew of it back then since it was a small company, but with the iron fist Jibril used when they merged, he completely took control of the merged company.

Lacus was dumped on a couch, and sprayed with a greenish grey solution, unlike the red one the guard used at the supermarket.
" Nghh... where am I? " Lacus asked trying to stand up, and wondering how she got here, and where she was before?
She gasped when she remembered the burly man and tried to sit up when she heard a eerie voice.
" You should be grateful I'm not the type to use violence. " Jibril said with an annoying accent and voice.
" Wha...t do you want to do with me? " Lacus stammered, she didn't know what he meant, however she was scared, but she didn't want to give him the satisfaction in knowing she was scared or afraid. So she sat up straight.
" Nothing much... nothing really. I just find it really boring when it's one sided. So it's not fun doing it while your unconcious. " Jibril said with an evil grin. This sentence made Lacus have a scared expression, she knew he was planning something bad, and she knew what it was.
" NO! " Lacus screamed, her eyes beginning to get watery with fear and fright, as she accidently kicked her legs as the man came walking.
" ACK! " Jibril fell to the ground, his hands holding onto his private area, screaming and rolling in pain.
" Curse you women! You've only prolonged this by a few days at most, but I'll make you suffer when the time comes! " he screamed as three similar looking black suited guards game in and put him on a stretcher.

Just then a women with a long black skirt and business uniform came in and escorted Lacus to a small desolate room. It had a bed, and a bottle of water, lying on a desk, and nothing more." I'm sorry, but I can't help you. I wish I could, but if I did, I'd be murdered, but if there's anything that you need me for, don't hesitate to ask. " she said, with remorse and regret.
" Wait, why are being so nice? Aren't you with the kidnappers? " Lacus was shocked to see someone nice here.
" I was... " and she stopped instantly, and Lacus knew what happened.
" I know what you mean. So that's why he keeps you here? " Lacus wanted to know what happened after that.
" He keeps me as a make-shift secretary, and I'm constantly watched. I can't use the internet or go near a public phone, only one way phones. If there is a way to let you avoid sharing my fate, I'll help, but please.. don't get me involved if I'll get caught for sure, I'll take risks, but not suicidal ones. " she said as tears started dripping down her face, and onto the hard uncarpeted floor.
" It's ok, I won't ask you to sacrifice your life, for me to escape, everyone is afraid to die... " Lacus comforted her
" Thank you... Miss Clyne... if you need anything, ask for Natalie when they come and ask. " she cried trying to stop crying and wiping her eyes.
" Ok Natalie. But can you tell me how long I have? " Lacus started getting worried about her own fate.
" The doctors said that he has to wait three days. So I hope someone can save you by then. " Natalie said as she turned around.
" I have to go, they'll get suspicious. " she said as she left.
' Three days... Kira, I hope you can find me before then... ' Lacus thought, wishing Kira can hear her.

Clyne Mansion

It was late, and Kira had a hard day at the office. Being Vice President and Programming Manager at the same time wasn't easy, especially since Siegel Clyne was gone for the last week and won't be back for another week. So Kira was real tired by now, but couldn't wait to get home, Lacus said she had a surprise planned and he couldn't stop thinking about it.
' SNAP OUT OF IT! ' Kira told himself, he was getting dirty thoughts and he had to remind himself how going too fast can ruin a relationship.
When he pulled up into the driveway and stopped, he noticed all of the maids and butlers were gone. Normally, there'd be a few out here ready to tend to him when he got back, and they started calling him Mr. which Kira hated since it made him feel old, but he did like knowing that they've already assumed he'd be here to stay. And when he went to the door, he found it unlocked, and went in. Suddenly, he felt something run up and knock the wind out of him. Kira knew who it was.. but it didn't feel right.
The Lacus Kira knew would always walk up to him slowly and give him a quick kiss on the cheek, and that was their usual welcome back greeting, but this was different. Lacus would never run up and lunge at me for a hug.
Kira looked down, and saw Lacus. Or what he thought was Lacus. Her face looked almost the same, but slightly sharper.

' Maybe because of a new lotion? ' Kira thought, but then noticed more differences. Her hair was darker, less bright, had a tint of red, and seemed to lose the bright and majestic shine he once knew.
' New shampoo? ' but he knew that was kinda weird, and he'd be able to confirm things with the next thing she'd do. She kissed him.
' This kiss isn't Lacus' kiss, this kiss isn't from the person I know and love ' the thought ran across Kira's mind as she kissed him on the cheek.
' There was no passion, no feeling, no sensation. Lacus' kiss always leaves me feeling enlightened and happy, this kiss felt like a blank and emotionless thing forced upon by someone else. ' Kira knew this was not Lacus.
The hair, the face, the voice, the enhanced cleavage. Though this imitation is close, it was easily identified by Kira, and he shoved her back and to the ground.
" WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH LACUS?! " he roared, worried about her safety and outraged someone would pretend to be her.
" I... ha..ve ..no .. idea.. w..ha..t yo..u m..ean. " the scared phony said, trying not to blow her cover.
" That's it, I'll give you till the count of three to tell me where she is NOW! " Kira was getting agravated and extremely scared about what happened to the real Lacus.
" Look... Kira... your probably over worked and tired " the imposter wanted to try and sound like her.
Kira grabbed his cell phone and dialed a number he was given in case of emergencies, the number that he knew could help with this.
" Hello? I need help! Lacus is kidnapped, and some impostor is here posing as her! No, I'm sure. HURRY! " Kira hung up and stared at the fake, and never took his eyes off her, and within ten minutes, he heard a siren and he arrived.
" Sorry I'm late! " Yzack said running in.
" So that's the fake Lacus? " Yzack asked, looking at the imposter.
" Yeah, thanks for the help. " Kira said, still keeping his eyes on her.
" Once a agent, always an agent. " Yzack said grabbing out his handcuffs.
" You are under arrest, by the ORB Investigation Squad, all words you say will be used against you, you have the right to remain silent. " Yzack said, trying to sound professional. He hadn't said that line for quite a while. Yzack used to work with the ORB Investigation Squad till he retired and joined the pilots, because of an accident that gave him a easily noticed and visible scar.

A few hours later, everyone came, and soon the investigation room was packed. Kira alerted everybody, and no one knew where the real Lacus was, but came, due to concern. Yzack was inside, along with Kira and Athrun, Dearraka and Miri were sitting in the lounge when Tolle and Kuzzey arrived. Soon after, Cagalli arrived.
" Any news? " she asked panting as she ran in as fast as she could.
" No, they're still interrogating her, and we haven't gotten any news since we arrived. " Kuzzey replied calmly
" Damnit! Kira's gonna go over the edge if this keeps up. And worst of all, I don't know where's my sister in law is, or if she's safe or not? "
" Wait... wait.. THEY'RE MARRIED?! " Dearraka screamed and then got hit on the head by Miri
" No, but it's only a matter of time. " Cagalli tried to put on a grin, but she just couldn't at a time like this.
" Are they even engaged? " Tolle asked
" No, I guess my brother was going to soon, but now, we don't even know what's gonna happen! " Cagalli said punching the wall. It didn't break or anything, but Cagalli just jumped back and yelped with pain, and started to cuss at the wall and at the stinkin kidnappers.
