Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN G.I. Joe or G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra...I WOULD love to own Snake Eyes though, haha. I only own my character Kai Namazaki, and any other OC's that you don't recognize. So...please don't sue me! I'm just a normal, well...semi-normal, college student with no money! Have mercy! LOL!
This is my first time do a G.I. Joe fanfiction...and...well...I don't know if it'll be any good, so...please bare with me. If you have any suggestions or ideas that I can use, or if you want to give me any advice, I'd really appreciate that. Thanks!
P.S.: Sorry if it's slightly descriptive, I'm still working on that...it's like...I have OCD when I go into details or stuff like that.
sign language will be in bold and if i decide to put in writing on paper or a notepad or on a tablet, it will be underlined. I also apologize if the characters are OOC, it's a little hard to get everyone's actions and personality right. So...I hope I was at least somewhat close to it.

I want to thank all my readers for reviewing and favoriting and putting my story on story alert! You guys rock and I hope you guys will keep on reading and reviewing!

So...yeah...ALSO...sorry for like...the really off number countings with a few of the chapters...sometimes I forget to fix/change it or just forget what chapter I'm doing next!

Last time on "Shadowing the Past":
The man lifted up Kai easily without a struggle and began to walk towards the escape pods, softly whistling an oddly familiar tune. Kai tried her best to keep her heavy eyes open, opening and closing her mouth a few times as she tried to speak or scream for help. Her eyes immediately closed when she was inside the escape pod, and the last thing she heard before she fell asleep was a very familiar voice say,
"Night night, Kai. Miss me?"
Hours and Hours later, Kai softly groaned in pain as she slowly opened her eyes, slowly regaining conscious. As soon as she realized where she was, Kai immediately woke up and checked her surroundings, realizing she was trapped inside a large and empty warehouse. She tried to move, but was frustrated to find out that was tightly bounded to a metal chair, arms behind her back, held by metal handcuffs tightened roughly against her wrists, breaking skin. Turning her head when she heard a door open, Kai was surprised when she saw someone that she hadn't seen in a long time.
"Zartan..."
CHAPTER 28
"Hey, have you seen, Kai?"
"No, I haven't seen her since breakfast. I thought she went to go help you out in the Tech Room?"
"What? No, I haven't seen her at all."
"Oh no...this isn't good..."
"What's wrong?"
"Snake Eyes!"
"Breaker...Yumi...what happened? What's wrong?" Snake Eyes signed.
Yumi and Breaker turned to look at each other before looking away, keeping silent, unable to tell Snake Eyes anything.
"Hey guys." Storm Shadow said, casually walking up to them.
"St-torm...hey...what are you d-doing here? I thought General Hawk wanted to talk to you." Stammered Yumi, knowing he had heard everything.
Storm Shadow turned to look at Snake Eyes and bluntly said, "Kai's missing. Let's go find her."
Snake stiffened visibly from the news and immediately ran off to the Rec. Room in search of his love. When he entered the Rec. Room the first person he saw was Ripcord.
"Hey Snake! What's-?" Ripcord was cutoff when he saw Snake signing furiously at him.
"Have you seen Kai?"
"I haven't seen baby girl anywhere. Why? Did something happen to her?" asked Ripcord.
"Guys! General Hawk wants to see us." Said Duke breathlessly.
"Alpha Team, I want you to take a look at what Breaker found on the computer...Breaker." General Hawk informed.
Breaker turned to the computer and begain playing some surveillance footage on the large wide screen. It showed Kai being knocked out and carried away by someone wearing a black hoodie.
"Who the hell is that?" Duke asked angrily.
Storm quickly spoke up when he saw something on the screen.
"Can you zoom up on the ring on our John Doe?"
"Yeah…here." Breaker replied, obliging to the request.
"What is it Storm?" Yumi asked out of both concern and curiosity.
"That's Destro's ring. He never takes it off." Storm Shadow answered.
"Destro? Are you sure, Storm Shadow?" General Hawk asked, looking at Storm Shadow.
"I'm sure that's Destro...I bet my life on it."
"Where would he take Kai? Actually...WHY would he take Kai?" Scarlett asked worriedly, remembering what happened with Damien.
"I'm not sure." Replied Storm Shadow, deep in his own thoughts.
Everyone jumps when Snake Eyes slams his fist into the table and leaves. Scarlett was about to follow her best friend, when Storm Shadow suddenly says,
"I'll handle it."
Storm Shadow walks out of the Tech Room a few seconds later, quickly following his fellow sword brother.
Storm Shadow immediately found Snake Eyes in his room gathering weapons and and other important items like he was packing for a mission.
"And just exactlyhow do you propose to rescue her if you don't even know where she is?" Storm Shadow asked with a quirked brow, leaning his the left side of his body against the doorway.
Snake Eyes just ignored ignored his brother, continuing packing more items and weapons. Storm Shadow sighed and shook his head, saying,
"I know that you don't trust me...but you trust Kai and she definitely trusts ME. If I knew where she was I would tell you and go with you to bring my best friend back. But she wouldn't want you to go on some reckless hunt and get hurt because of her sake and safety."
Snake Eyes stopped packing and looked up at his brother.
"She went back with that bastard Damien Sky for you, so you would survive. She did all of that...for you." Continued Storm Shadow.
"Look, I know you don't trust me but that's partly my fault. What I did at the temple, the one day I was cool with you to the next day, ignoring you and treating you like crap...all of that was to protect you. One of the High Masters wanted to kill you, so they hired an assassin, Zartan. I was the spy for Hard and Soft Master to watch out for you and to protect you." Storm Shadown confessed.
Snake Eyes was now staring in shock and surprise.
"Come on brother, let's bring her home. I think I know where Destro went." Storm Shadow suddenly smirked.
"Wake-y wake-y..."
Softly groaning, Kai slowly opens her eyes, blinking them a few times when light suddenly cuts in through her line of vision. Opening them once more, she is surpised to find herself still trapped up inside the warehouse, but now, she was with both Zartan, and Destro.
"Morning love...you've been asleep for a few hours...I thought we might have killed you." Destro smirked under his metal face mask/helmet.
"Why the hell am I here, Destro? And YOU, you should be DEAD!" Kai growled, struggling in the metal chair that was chained to the floor.
"Hmm...you could say that...I'm lucky?" Zartan smiled, causing Kai's anger to rise.
"What am I doing here? What do you want with me?" Kai yelled.
"Why, we thought it was obvious? You, Kairi Namazaki...are a very special woman." Destro replied softly.
"Special? What the hell are you talking about? What do you mean I'm "very special"? That doesn't make sense!" Kai continued to struggle.
"For a seemingly bright and intelligent woman...you really are daft." Destro commented with a shake of his head, his thick accent cutting through the words.
"Fuck you!" Kai glared.
"My, my...is that a promise or a threat?" Zartan grinned.
"Now, now, Zartan...you heard Cobra...he doesn't want us to touch her...at least not yet, anyways." Destro smiled.
"Argh! You know you're not going to get away with this! When my team finds out that I'm missing, they're going to come rescue me and kick your ass! Especially Storm Shadow and Snake Eyes!" Kai yelled.
"Great, the more the merrier!" Destro laughed.
"I wouldn't mind, I would get to finally finish my job of killing Snake Eyes, and Cobra will get to inflict sweet revenge on that traitor, Storm Shadow." Zartan smirked.
"Never going to happen!" Kai yelled.
"Oh...but trust me, it will." Zartan smiled, bending down to be face-to-face with Kai, gently caressing her cheek.
Kai just spit in his face, glaring angrily at him. Zartan calmly wipes the spit off of his face and eyes his hand for a few seconds, before he roughly grabs Kai by the cheeks and jaw, pressing down tightly on her cheeks, causing her lips to stick out like a gold fish.
"You bitch! I'm going to-!"
"Zartan! Stop, you know we need her unharmed. Cobra won't be happy to know that she was injured." Destro called out.
Zartan just growled and immediately released Kai's face, taking a few steps back away from her. Kai glared at her kidnappers, trying to think of a solution that will help her get out of the situation she was in. She brought her tied-up hands close to her lower back, placing it underneath her shirt, trying to search for something. As soon as she felt the familiar cold metal in her hand, Kai slowly pulled her hands away from her lower back, gently gripping a small bobby pin. She began to discreetly pick at the lock in the handcuffs, inwardly smiling when she felt the handcuffs loosen around her wrists. Quietly shaking her wrists to rid herself of the handcuffs, Kai quickly grabs them before they could fall to the floor.
"You never answered my question earlier...why the hell do you need me?" Kai asked.
"Apparently, it wasn't as obvious to you as we thought it would be." Destro sighed.
"Quit dancing around the subject and just answer the damn question!" Kai growled in annoyance.
"You are a very impatient person...but if you MUST know...Cobra Commander wants you...plain and simple." Destro said.
"Disgusting...just where is your oh-so-ever magnificent leader now?" Kai asked.
"Unfortunately, he is a bit preoccupied elsewhere, he's busy coming up with a new science project! A chemical slash poison that will slowly, but surely, and very painfully, get the job done. Of course...there IS an antidote, but the need for it all depends on YOU." Destro replied.
"Me? What do you mean, me?" Kai clenched her fists, feeling as if something horrible was about to come out of Destro's mouth.
"Why, you're expertise of course! When I said you're special, I mean, you're special. As in, we want YOU to join US...or you die...as simple...as...that."
"I think I'll pass." Kai said.
With that said, Kai immediately jumped to her feet and aimed a right hook for Zartan's face, while her left leg connected with Destro's ribcage. As soon as they both fell to the floor, Kai immediately ran towards the door, trying to quickly escape her captors.
"Catch her damn it, catch her!" Destro angrily rasped, gripping his sides.
Zartan glared at Destro, but followed the order none-the-less, quickly getting to his feet as he tried to chase Kai. She immediately grabbed the sides of the sliding door and pulled it with all her might. Before she could make a run, however, she was immediately frozen on the spot when she realized that someone was blocking her exit to freedom.
"Cobra..." Kai whispered breathlessly.
"Hello, Kai...I'm afraid I just can't let you go." Cobra Commander replied, slowly walking up to Kai with a syringe in his hand.
Kai's eyes widened in shock and fear, and immediately tried to attack Cobra, but was immediately held in place by Zartan grabbing her from behind, lifting her off of the ground by a few inches. Kai screamed and struggled, trying to shake Zartan off of her. Before she could even hit Zartan with the back of her head, Cobra Commander had already grabbed her wrist and inserted the syringe into one of her veins.
"NO! No...no...no..." Kai slowly trailed off, eyelids drooping as she slowly blacked out.
