AN: Thanks for the reviews I got for the last chapter, glad you liked it. And doing another chapter this quickly is unusual for me, so you better like it! ; )

Chapter 12

As Mia walked to face her Dad and Grandmere, a horrible thought registered in her mind.

'What if they don't believe me? Not about bring kidnapped but about Kenny. I mean, Dad met him, and he really liked him.' Mia wondered, but nonetheless, she was still going to tell the truth. It wasn't her fault if they didn't believe her.

As she entered the room, her father stood up to greet her, but Grandmere stood seated. "Hi Mia, how are you doing?" He asked and hugged her.

"I'm doing all right." She replied, but then said truthfully, "But last night was hard." Phillipe nodded, "Yes, I heard about that. So, why don't we talk." He said and gestured to a chair.

Mia nodded and sat down across from him and Grandmere.

"Why don't you start from the beginning." Her dad offered

"Well, I guess I was told Grandmere and Lars that I was going downstairs to pick up some last minute things." She said, "And on my way down, somebody must have knocked something on my head, because everything went dark."

"Did you happen to see anyone? Like your attack or a guard perhaps?" Phillipe asked "No." Mia answered, "All I saw was dark"

"All right." He said, "Go on."

*******************(Right after Mia had meet Kenny)

"Mia, I can't. You broke my heart, and it's time for Michael to suffer the way I did too." "Kenny, I'm sorry if I broke your heart, but you don't understand-" Mia said, trying to calm down

"No, Mia, I understand completely. You never liked me from the moment we went out, at least, not as much as I liked you." His eyes gleamed, "So, once we broke up, I didn't think my heart could stand much more. But then you had to go and fall in love with Moscovitz that same night." Kenny looked disgusted, "From that moment on I wanted revenge. I wanted both of you to know how it felt to have your hearts broken." "But I didn't kidnap anyone." Mia argued

"Oh, no, that's where you're wrong. See, you did something much worse. I gave you my heart, you didn't steal it, but no, you threw it back on the ground with not even a bit of remorse." He said

"Kenny, you're acting crazy. I said, I'm sorry, but it's not my fault. I don't choose who I want to love. I can't just love whoever I want to."

"Wrong again Mia. See, while you're hear, you will learn to love me as much as I love you, and hate Michael as much as I do."

"You sick, nasty, mean, awful," Mia cussed and screamed at him, but Kenny just smirked.

"Trust me, you'll learn. Now, I assume you're very hungry. Would you like something to eat?" He asked

Mia just scowled and turned away, but her stomach did the talking for her. Kenny smiled. "All right, I guess that's a yes. I'll be back soon princess." And he walked up the creaking stairs.

'I wonder where I am.' Mia thought as soon as Kenny had left.

She looked around again to maybe help her find some answers, but no avail. There were no windows to look out, just the cold concrete floor.

Soon Kenny came back. "You will dine with me upstairs." He said, and Mia glared at him but got up.

"It better be vegetarian." She told him

"You will either eat what I provide you, or starve." He replied like it was no big deal, and continued walking.

Upstairs was fancier then the basement, but not much. There were windows, but they were covered up with dark curtains.

Kenny noticed her gaze, and said, "I like to keep to myself."

"I've noticed." Mia said coldly.

On the table were lumpy potatoes, mushy carrots, and grilled cheese sandwiches, which looked a couple days old.

But Mia was starving. She had soon eaten everything on her plate.

"I thought so." Kenny said, looking at the clean plate, "Well, would you rather talk for a little while, or go to bed."

"Bed please." Mia replied, and Kenny showed her the room next door with a cot, a pillow, and a blanket. Mia got in, and soon fell asleep.

(Seven days later)

Kenny was wrong about two things; she still didn't love him (Now she just hated his guts), and she still loved Michael (Even more now that she hadn't seen him for so long).

"Mia?" Kenny said, coming into "her bedroom", "Are you ready?"

"Ready for what?" She asked angrily

"Didn't I tell you yesterday?"

"No." She said

"Well, we're going out." He told her

"Really?" She asked, sort of excitedly. And why shouldn't she? She had been outside, let alone seen daylight for a week.

"Yes." Kenny said, "I have a meeting that I can't miss. So my good friend George will drive you around until my meeting is done. Then the car will come pick me up, I get in, and we come back."

"Aren't people going to see me?" Mia asked suspiciously

"No. The windows are tinted."

So fifteen minutes later, Kenny out a blindfold on Mia, to make sure she wouldn't know where he was keeping her. He walked outside, made sure no one could see them, and guided Mia to the car parked in the street.

After about ten minutes of driving, Kenny took off Mia's blindfold. The first thing she did was look out the window. She was surprised to see that she was still in New York.

Then she got the first look at the driver, George. He was bald, except for a patch of hair in the back on his head. He was muscular, and Mia noticed that he had a gun in the front seat next to him. 'Shit.' Mia thought.

But she soon thought of an escape. She wasn't sure if it would work, but she knew she wouldn't have another chance for a while.

As Kenny was about to get out of the car, Mia turned toward him and said sweetly, "Kenny dear? Why don't you leave the doors unlocked so that when we come to pick you up, you can hope right in? That way, we won't waste any time."

Kenny looked at her suspiciously, the softened, and smiled, "Of course Princess." He said, the got out, said something to the driver, who nodded.

Mia heard the locks on the door unlock, and she smiled to herself.

But Mia did hear Kenny's last words, "Make sure she doesn't go anywhere." George nodded again, and slowly drove away.

About ten minutes into the drive, Mia asked, "Could we stop at a bathroom, I really have to go."

"I'm sorry lady, but I have orders to keep you inside the car." George said

Mia folded her arms, and looked out the window.

Hey, they were back in her old neighborhood! She felt a flurry of excitement as she had another idea. She knew that about two blocks away from where they were, was the Central Park Zoo, and a stoplight.

As they came to the stoplight, and George slowed down the car, Mia sucked in some air, opened the door, and leaped out.

Then she ran like hell.

She was tired when she got to the zoo. She felt faint, she hadn't eaten for a couple of days, and she was still wearing the same clothes from a week ago.

The zoo was closed, but Mia didn't care, she thought she could hide with the penguins for a while, then try and find some help.

But she didn't have to wait very long. In the penguin house, was Michael, and he saw her.

"Michael." She croaked, and then fainted.

**************************

As Mia finished her story, without being interrupted once, her father (Not to mention Grandmere), just looked at her.

"He didn't...rape you did he?" Her father said quietly

Mia shook her head.

"I must call the police at once." He said, with a renewed and determined voice, and got up

"You mean, you believe me?" Mia asked

"Well, of course." Phillipe said with a weird look, "Why shouldn't we?"

"It's just," Mia said, "I never thought Kenny would do something like that."

"Neither did I, but I honestly don't think you're lying. I want Kenny Showalter arrested." He said, and then picked up the phone.

As he called, Grandmere offered Mia some tea and cookies. Mia gladly excepted, then went back to watching her father.

"Right, Kenny Showalter." Her father said, then looked angry, "Yes I know he's a minor, but he kidnapped my daughter!"

Mia heard some exasperated arguing coming from the other line, then finally her dad said, "Do you know who I am? I am Prince Artur Christoff Phillipe Gerald Grimaldi Renaldo of Genovia, and my daughter is Princess Amelia Mignonette Grimaldi Thermopolis Renaldo of Genovia. She was recently reported missing, but luckily, she has been found. No thanks to you I might add. And I want her kidnapper arrested." He said

A long pause, followed by some head nodding, "Um hum's", and finally he put down the phone.

"We are suppose to take Mia back to New York." Phillipe said finally.

"No." Grandmere said simply.

"Well, we must. They have to talk to her before they can put out a warrant. And we won't have to worry about Mia getting kidnapped again. She will have two bodyguards following her everywhere." He looked at Mia when he said everywhere.

Mia understood very well, and agreed.

"Fine." Grandmere said, "But I want her at the Plaza with me."

"No. She will stay with her mother and stepfather." Phillipe said sternly.

"But it's not safe enough there." Grandmere argued.

"Please remember that Mia was kidnapped at the Plaza, not at the loft. She will stay with her mother. And that is final. This is my daughter, and I will chose." He said.

Mia, in the first time in a week and a half, smiled.

She was finally going home.
