A/N: Hello again everyone! Here is chapter 14. And in a little bit of (belated) Halloween spirit I am going to go ahead and upload the last chapter today as well. I want you guys to have the conclusion. Next week I'll post the first chapter of the sequel, but again, I cannot guarantee as regular updates on that one.

Update 11/17/14: Another formatting issue. I honestly have no idea what is up with that but hopefully I fixed it.

Disclaimer: I do not own any part of Yu-Gi-Oh GX nor the song with which this story shares a title.

Chapter 14

Jaden POV

He bought his gift for Jesse and we left the store. "Thanks for the help, Hassleberry."

"Yeah, no problem. I just don't understand why you took so long."

"It had to be perfect. Something special."

He was infatuated with that boy. but I suppose the same could be said for me and Dana. Speaking of which. "Why don't we go find Dana and Jesse?"

He lit up. "Yeah, and then I can give him his present." He took off down the street. I shook my head. He had way too much energy for his own good. I took off after him and eventually caught up to him.

"Jaden slow down. I'm not as sprightly as you."

"Sorry, Hassleberry. I just got a little excited.

"Really, I hadn't noticed." The sarcasm was prevalent in my voice and Jaden gave me a light punch. "Let's go find them."

We didn't walk too long before we turned a corner and Jaden said, "There they are." He pointed down the road and sure enough there was the blue hair and Jesse and the golden hair of Dana. I smiled seeing her. Jaden waved to them and we began to walk down the street towards them, but before we got too far, two people threw bags over their heads and pulled them off into an alley.

Jaden and I had the same reaction. We took off down the street to chase after the two of them to find them. We turned down the alley way they were dragged down, but they weren't there. There was only a small bag from a men's wear store. I picked it up, but didn't look in it. At the end of the alley, it forked right and left.

"You go left I'll go right." I nodded and took off down the left side of the alley.

there were even more alleys that broke off from the one I was in. I didn't know where to start. I was helpless to save her again. I would never forgive myself if anything happened to her.

Jaden POV

Hassleberry took off down the left and I took the right. This city was full of mazes and this section of the city was no different. Alleys branched off and snaked through the buildings. I ran past the branches to observe what was in all of them, looking for any clues. I eventually ended up back out on the street. I was running fast and wasn't paying attention to where I was going and before I could slow down, I ran into someone. I fell to the ground, but immediately started apologizing.

"I'm so sorry I- Zane?"

He was rubbing his head as Aster helped him up. "Jaden, what has gotten into you?"

"Aster!" There was so much going through my head. I didn't know where to start so I just blurted out, "Dana and Jesse were kidnapped! We saw them!"

"What! When?"

"Just a minute ago. Hassleberry and I took off after them and split up but I didn't see them."

Aster pulled out his phone. "Good thing you found me." he dialed a number and waited while it rang.

"Who is he calling?"

Zane looked at me. "His private investigator probably. There's no one better in the business."

"Aster has a-" I cut myself off. What was there that Aster didn't have?

"Detective Gardner? I have an emergency. I need you to find a girl named Dana Gordon. She was kidnapped along with a boy named Jesse Anderson. They were last seen on . . ."

He looked at me. "York Avenue and Buffalo Street."

"York Avenue and Buffalo Street." He repeated. Find them immediately. Their lives are on the line."

Zane stepped in. "We need to find the others. I know where Atticus and Bastion are."

"And Syrus went to see Alexis. I know here her school is." I put forth.

"You two take this." Aster gave us his phone. I'll call you when I find them. I'm meeting my PI to look for her.

We nodded and took the phone. We parted and took off down the street.

General POV

PI Gardner hung up his phone and turned to the people he was in company with. "I just got off the phone with one of my other clients. You're going to want to hear this."

Aster POV

I made my way to where my PI told me to meet him. I looked for his familiar car. It was a black spacious car. It was one of a kind. As soon as I saw it turn the corner, I ran to meet it. He stopped the car and rolled down the window. "I think I have an idea of where to look. I called three of my finest officers in to help look."

"Where?"

"There's an old warehouse that used to be used by Giant Skies. We think the CEO's lackies took your friends there. Get in." I opened the back door and slipped in and he took off.

"I need your phone."

"Use mine." A voice behind me startled me and I turned around. Four people were sitting in the back. Who were these people?

"Who-?" A man held up his hand. He reached into his suit and pulled out a cell phone.

"Make your call and then we'll talk."

Zane POV

Jaden and I had found Atticus and Bastion just where I thought I would find them. Syrus and Alexis were easy to find too. Syrus apologized to her, but she had nothing to do with this situation and would only ask too many questions. She stayed behind.

We made our way back to where Dana and Jesse disappeared, filling in the three of them in on the way. We had just finished explaining when the phone Aster gave me rang. I fished it out of my pocket immediately and answered it. "Aster?"

"We have a lead. Are you familiar with Giant Skies Gaming?"

"Yes." What did they have to do with it?

"There's an abandoned warehouse previously owned by the company near where Dana and Jesse were kidnapped. It's close to Griffin and York."

"Griffin and York," I repeated to commit it to memory.

"I know where that is." Jaden looked like he couldn't stay still any longer.

"We're on our way."

"There will be two officers there to help infiltrate the ware house."

We were done exchanging information. I hung up and we took off down York Avenue.

Hassleberry POV

I had been running for who knows how long, but I still didn't see any sign of Dana or Jesse.

I stopped to catch my breath but when I did, tears started to pull at my eyes. "I can't believe I let this happen again."

"Who's there!" I turned around and there was a serious looking man carrying a gun. I put up my hands immediately.

"Don't hurt me, I'm just looking for my friends. They were kidnapped."

The man's face softened. "Kidnapped. what are their names?"

I was confused but I didn't want to get on this guy's bad side. "Dana Gordon and Jesse Anderson."

He put his gun down. "Those are the two I'm looking for. My boss sent me in. COme with me I think I know where your friends are."

I didn't think about it. "Lead the way."

Dana POV

He hit me again. By now I was numb and wasn't reacting anymore. I spit blood onto the floor.

"This is what happens when stupid girls interfere with my business." This was the most angry I had ever seen him.

He punched my face again, so hard the chair I was tied to fell over and I hit the floor. more blood sprayed from my mouth. I looked up to the door that Jesse was behind. There was a small glass window in the door and from the angle I was at I could only see the head of one of Kyper's henchmen. I couldn't see what they were doing.

"What is it going to take to get you to learn?"

He grabbed my hair again. He wrenched me up. he pulled me up from the chair, my arms slipping off from the back of it. He threw me to the ground and immediately pinned me down again, but my hands were already tied. His job was much easier.

"Looks like you need another lesson."

He raised his hand to hit me again when a garage like door opened and people flooded in. I couldn't make out what they were saying. All of the times Kyper hit me were affecting my hearing and i was losing consciousness.

I didn't know who was coming in, but I closed my eyes unable to look. Kyper had probably just called in more henchmen. There was no way getting out of this one.

I'm sorry, Jesse.

Jesse POV

Two of the men held me back as the third hit me over and over again. My face, my stomach, my chest. He kicked my legs until all my weight was being supported by the two men holding my arms.

The one hitting me pulled up my head by my hair and I winced. He flashed a knife in my face. He held it close to my face then moved it down. "Pull up his shirt."

The henchman on my right obliged. My stomach was bared and the first man looked back at my face. "Such a pretty young man. And such pretty skin. It'd be a shame if anything happened to it." He pulled the knife across my skin and I yelled out in pain.

"Oh, not so perfect anymore. Isn't that sad?" He looked me in the face again. "What do you think?"

I didn't say anything. There was blood filling my mouth and I was so disgusted by him, I spit it into his face.

He stood up and wiped it off, his face growing increasing more malicious. "Bend him over." The two holding me did as he said. The first man went behind me and I heard him messing with his belt as the two other men were trying to force my pants down.

No. This wasn't supposed to happen. Not this. Anything but this.

I was struggling against them and as there were about to win, the door slammed open and I was dropped to the floor.

I had very little strength to look up, but I heard a fight going on around me. I saw the two men holding me back fall to the floor next to me where my head lay.

The third let out a yell of pain and I heard him hit the wall. Whoever this was, I was terrified. Until.

"Jesse! Jesse! Stay with me!" He picked me up and my vision was blurry as he helped me stand up. I lost consciousness right as one thought went through my mind.

We were saved.
