Though I am glad Malik had more of a brain as to not touch Tea. -nods and eyes Malik as she weilds a wiffle bat- Malik: _;;;; I know I do have alot of cliff hangers hehe sometimes it takes my mind to really get into writing. I love it though. Thanks for sticking this out with me! I really appreciate it. Oooh okay! before I forget.. I don't own Yu-Gi-Oh or any of the Yu-Gi-Oh cast.. Yu-Gi-Oh belongs to Kazuki Takahasi!

She was gone.. He had lost her, and there was nothing he could do about it.. Yugi felt his knees begin to buckle as grief overtook him. He held his ground though, Using the wall to keep himself steady.. he tried to breathe, yet it felt as if he were drowning. Head snapped upwards as he overheard the police monitor in a vehicle not to far from where he stood.. The Game Shop.. something had happened there as well. Yugi took off in a run towards the shop his grandfather owned. Joey hard on his heels, as he rounded the corner the first thing he noted were the flashing lights. Along with the broken window. Gasping for breath he pushed through the throng of people. Those eyes searching for Solomon. "Granpa?? What happened??" He got out as he noted the elderly man speaking with a police officer.

Solomon sighed softly. It would be up to him to let Yugi know what had happened. "Yugi.. Sit down please." He murmured softly. As the boy sat Solomon looked over his grandson, a deep breath taken in. "Someone threw an object through our window today, about twenty minutes ago." Yugi's eyes went wide. Noone had ever done such a thing before. Then the real blow would come. "Inside I found remanents of T`ea's sweater.. It had been cut to shreds.. " This conversation would be quiet, that noone else could hear.

Anger, Rage.. Yugi could not believe what was happening. The person was blatantly taunting him apparently.. Why though? What did they want??

She had fallen asleep at some point. Dreams.. Holding hands with him. Causing him to blush. Smiles, long walks in the park. She was always behind him. Always there to back him in anything he did. Their faith.. Their love for eachother timeless. A sound... T`ea flinched slightly as she began to awaken. A small groan of pain escaping her aching body. Sitting in one spot for an undetermined amount of time had caused her legs to go numb, her arms to feel the strain as they had been pulled so tightly behind the chair and bound. She was hungry, in pain.. and she had to use the bathroom.. Head rose wearily as it turned towards the sound. She dared not speak, for fear of being hurt again. Then the ropes were being released, t he blindfold falling from her face. As eyes adjusted she could only blink a few times, before searching for whomever had released her. He did not speak. His face and body obscured by a dark swath of material. All she saw were his eyes. violet peircing.. much like Yugi's eyes.. though they held no kindness. He motioned to a small door way adjacent the room he kept her in. She obeyed. It was better that she simply follow along with his little game untils he could figure a way out of this mess. She went through the doorway. A bathroom, sparse and void of anything other then a toilet, sink and towels. Of course all that lay there was a near transparent curtain for her to close while she did her business. Yet it was better then nothing. Within a few moments she would be returning to that room. Feeling a little better if not alot. He spoke then, telling her to face the wall and place her hands behind her back. She did as she was told. She trembled as she heard his approach. Cold drifted over first one wrist, then the other.. Handcuffs. She would be turned about then. The dim light causing her to squint as she peered about. A small cot lay in the corner. Much like a prison bed, bolted to the wall. She was told to lay upon it. Of course she followed orders. Another feeling of cold would follow as she felt her ankle caught in a shackle. She was powerless. She could do nothing. Yet at least she was not trapped sitting in a chair.. Eyes shut as he withdrew from her, she drew her knees up to her chest as best she could a soft sob escaping her... Yugi.. where are you..?--

Just like a little doll T`ea did everything that he instructed. His minor show of force before hand had caught her attention, forced her to behave like a programmed robot. She was beautiful. Though when he was through breaking into that hard little shell she had created around her.. When he showed her that her friends would not come for her.. then.. then he would break her resolve. Cause her to hate those that she loved and felt a loyalty towards. "Good girl T`ea. Just listen and you will be fine." He said in a half soothing voice as he locked her down upon what would be her bed for her stay in that small basement like cell. A blanket would be placed over her. He would play mind games with her for as long as needed. Violent one minute, gentle the next. "If you pay attention, behave. I will feed you tomorrow. Do oyu understand?" A moment of satisfaction drifted upon his features as she nodded. Her eyes were closed to tightly. A look of despair writ upon her features.. The gentler side of him wished to console her.. Of course.. his other side would not allow it.. Darkness would conquer the light in him. He straightened out his body and turned away. to once again leave her in the dark.

A satisfied smile would creep upon that hidden face as he heard her begin to sob.

Nee n.n;; Done with my fourth chapter.. I don't know.. It is not all that great. I guess it could be because I was half asleep while writing it! I hope you are not to dissapointed. I was trying out an idea that came to my mind! ^_^;; I guess sort of a psychological thing.. Where the victim becomes dependent on her captor. I don't know yet though. I'll see where it goes!! Once again, Thank you very much for taking time to read my humble fanfic! CC
