The next trial was here already. Two weeks passing in the blink of an eye. Zexion had been kept at the castle so that he could get ready for the test, and he spent a lot of time with Emi. Mainly they would just hang out in the library, and would sometimes come out and spend time with others.

Something interesting had happened though; Luxord had somehow acquired a television. It was very enlightening to find out what was happening back in their world, even if it only got one snowy news channel. They found out that people were looking for all of them, even Emi and Namine. When the girls had seen that, they started crying, but Namine and Emi were dry eyed. Even Saix dabbed away a tear when he thought no one was looking. They found out that there was a Tsunami in Japan, and that the stock market had another crash.

It was a nice form of entertainment, and it allowed them to feel more connected to the world that they were supposed to leave behind. But one day they turned on the TV. to something much more interesting. It was a news report about Emi and Namines father.

"Breaking news, we have just found out that Richard Izumi has been arrested for keeping an underground brothel."

"EMI GET IN HERE!" Namine yelled up the stairs, not taking her eyes from the screen. She never yelled, and Emi came running down the stairs, as fast as lightning.

"Wha-?" She stopped when she saw her father on the screen.

"It is believed that he had his daughters, Emi Izumi and Namine Izumi, working here, and that might have been why they ran away. So far Richard Izumi has been in custody and over 50 women and girls have been freed from this place."

The reporter left the screen and the camera zoomed in on the house and showed all the police, firefighters and ambulances surrounding the house. Girls and women were scattered everywhere, to many to count. Some were crying, some looked like they couldn't be happier, but they all had a look of relief on their faces. Then the camera went back to panel onto the reporter again.

"Richard Izumi will be charged for rape on multiple accounts and with many counts of human trafficking. Will all the witnesses that the police have against him, there is most likely no chance that he will be able to get out of any of his charges."

Then the image of the reporter moved to the right of the screen as they showed the film of Rickard Izumi being put in the police car. There was no sound but he was thrashing around, trying to fight the police off. To no avail, they kept a firm grip on his arms and shoved him into the back of the police car. Underneath they had a caption that said, "We cannot play they audio do to explicit content." He looked completely insane. His eyes were popping out of his head because of how hard he was yelling, and his face was red from the strain. He looked like any second, he would pull out a gun and just start randomly shooting. Then the video ended and the reporter came back to full view.

"Many of the people working have been held as hostages, like many of the women who were keeping prisoner. All have refused to comment about what has happened to them. We have just gotten word from the police that they wont be able to have a solid case unless someone tells what happened here, and everyone who can wont. If the police cant get someone to come forward, then Richard Izumi could get off with no charges for insufficient evidence." The reporter herself looked like she wanted to cry at this news.

"This is Yuna from channel 10, signing off."

Then the news moved on. They watched the entire hour for something about him, but there was nothing else. But by the end of the news report, Emi had left and come back, but she returned with a cell phone.

Ooooooooooo cliff hanger! I couldnt help myself, but I'll update soon!
