A/n: Thanks for the reviews. Ok, this is the 2nd chap to the story. I'm making a sequel to this one, but I don't know if I should post it up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~Chapter 2~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Don't worry, we can get him still. My dad still has a bunch of papers in his basement." Ryo replied. That made them realize that they can.
"What's the plan for today?" Takato sat on a step of the station.
"It's not like we can get her in one day."Kenta said.
"Let's make Mr. Jaketchi to make us help." Ryo suggested.
"What? To get Rika out? Since when is that illegal?" Jeri asked.
"I mean, bring her mom into it. Even Mr.Jaketchi."Ryo suggested.
"I know her work number."Jeri offered.
"I know Mr. Jaketchis number." Henry offered.
"Then let's get to work."
"To a pay phone!" Kazu exclaimed.
"You're not getting paid for that." Ryo said.
~~~~~~~~~~Rika~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I'm going crazier in this room."Rika spoke to herself." Now I'm really talking to myself."
'Maybe the beatings are getting to my head.' Rika wondered.'I need to get out.'
Rika looked out the window. Freedom. Something she missed. What were the others doing right now?
'I'm getting weak somehow. But I have not shed one drop of my tears ever since he started to hit me.' She went to her bed.'I feel sick. Like, I have a fever or something.'
"Rika. Dinner."Her dad knocked on the door.
'In other words beating time.' Rika got out of bed.
~~~~~~~~~Mr. Jaketchi~~~~~~~~~~~
"No."
"But we're her friends. We could do...stuff." Takato persisted.
"That is no excuse for you to join me in the case. That's why her mother left me to do it."Jaketchi sat on his chair.
"Can't we just be helpers? Like, fix up some papers?" Suzie suggested.
"Hmmm."He didn't argue back."If you'd do something like that, then maybe there is something you can do."
"Ok, what is it?" Henry asked.
Jaketchi brought out a few cameras on his table.
"Since all you want to do is mostly watch Mr. Makino's house, why don't you tape it as well. It would be proof. So, still up for it? You'll have to rotate jobs."
They took the cameras and went off spying on the house.
~~~~~~~~~~~Kenta's house~~~~~~~~~~
"Why at my house all of the sudden?"Kenta asked.
"It just happend to be closer to his house." Ryo replied.
"I have a lawn jog from the lady in front of the house. I can ask her if we can set up a camera there."Kazu said.
"I'll watch the front door first. That way it'll show that she doesn't get out.' Ryo volunteered. They would all take shifts after half an hour.
"Saying it like that makes it seem like she's already dead."Jeri said.
"How long will it take?" Kazu got his camera ready.
"Probably a couple of days." Ryo grabbed one too."The hardest thing is to avoid our parents from coming to us when it's our turn."
"At least there's an excuse to go over to Kenta's." Takato came in.
"My mom was alright with it, she understands." Kenta confirmed."So, let's get started."
Ryo and Kazu left. They would change every half an hour. Both carried talkies in case they needed to be contacted. It was almost midnight when they started.
---------1 minute--------
"This is boring." Kazu radioed."Where are you?"
"I'm in between two houses. The neighbors don't mind, sort of. At least you're in a house."
"You can't always pick 'em."
~~~~~~~~~~~~Rika~~~~~~~~~~~~
'The window. The only thing I like besides an aid kit.' she felt her forehead as she returned to her bed instead of her corner.'For some reason, I have a feeling that I should look out my window for something, but it's getting too cold.'
She went under her sheets. It was cold in her room. Though it usually was a normal temperature.
'Is it that cold today?' she wondered. 'It's almost time for the last beating of the day.'
Rika fell asleep. Her dad knocked, but she still didn't wake up. He went over to her.
"Wake up! Who said you could miss tonights beating if you slept?!!" He screamed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~Ryo~~~~~~~~~~~
----Day 2/25 min-----
'Midnight. Man, I didn't know how late I started my shift.' he checked his watch.
"Kazu, are you awake?"
"Ya."
"Three adults know about this. What does that say to you?"
"Our parents would kill us."Kazu yawned." Three more minutes."
"Just hope that the others don't forget."Ryo leaned against the wall." It smells here.
"Lucky I got this post."
Takato and Henry took Ryo and Kazu's place. While that was happening, Rika's dad encountered something new.
~~~~~~~~~~~~Rika~~~~~~~~~~
He grabbed her throat, but when he did she felt warmer than usual. He pinned her on the wall, hand still on her neck. She was hot.
"What's wrong with you now?" He felt her forehead as her head hung."You sick or something?"
Rika felt his cold hand. She didn't move. It would make her nauseous.
"What am I going to do with you now?" He asked himself still not letting her go.
'Leave me alone, let me go, whatever you want first.' Rika didn't open her eyes.' I am basically sick.'
"I should get someone to do something." His cranky voice said.
~~~~~~~~Ryo~~~~~~~~
'I can't sleep.' Ryo stared at the ceiling.' Maybe because I know Rika needs our help. Mr. Jaketchis way takes too long. Kater in the noon, we have to do something different.'
"Still can't sleep?" Kazu noticed.
"No. I can't help think that we are wasting our time taping his house when we can go over there and get him." Ryo whispered back.
"We could complain later. While that last pair watches."Kazu assured.
"Ya. I just hope that we aren't too late."
'Maybe we already are.'
~~~~~~~~Jeri~~~~~~~~~~~~
-----15min------
'What time is it? Probably one something. Wonder how Kenta's doing in the alley.'Jeri lazily waited with the camera.' Is he still awake?'
"Jeri ! Jeri !"
"What is it? What happend?"
"Her dad just came back from a trip to somewhere. He came back with a box!"
"Ok....what does that have to do with Rika?"
"It's looks like a box for gun stuff!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~TBC~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ya, not much. REview pls.
