Chapter Three: Kidnapped

Ichigo desperately tried to pull back from the kiss, but she felt strong arms wrap around her. She tried to transform, but with him controlling her mind it was impossible. She was trapped.

She felt her feet touch ground and she immediately pushed with all her might and managed to get out of his embrace. She spat and wiped her mouth.

"Who do you think you are?! Pretending to be Masaya, and kissing me! Take me back now, Kish!" she screamed at the top of her lungs, anger and humiliation cursing through her.

She was stupid! She had fallen for it, she should have realized something was wrong, and now she was kidnapped. She glowered at him as Kish smiled suggestively at her.

"I've finally got you right where I want you. You are here for my pleasure."

Ichigo didn't waver, no fear welled inside her. He wouldn't do anything to her. She wouldn't let him. She looked suspiciously at him as his smiled turned evil as she thought that.

"You are wrong, my sweet. I will do with you what I want, and you are powerless to stop it. I have control of your mind. You may not feel it, you're not supposed to, and I've perfected it ever since I found out about you. I can read your thoughts, and I can stop you from using your powers. You are powerless to stop me from doing anything. I could rule the world if I wanted to," he paused to leer at her eyes roaming her body, "I think I'll have my way with you first."

Ichigo still glared at him, not believing his words, but she couldn't deny the fear now running through her. She wasn't going to believe him. If she believed him, he would feed on that, and make everything worse.

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. I don't care. I know I'm telling the truth. If you believe me, or not, will not stop me from doing anything I please, and it won't stop your friends coming her so I can finally have all of you together."

Mint stared at Ryou. "A-are you sure?" He nodded gravely.

"We've heard rumors that they were going to try to kidnap one of you and take you to wherever it is they stay, but we didn't who it would be, or who they would pretend to be. I suppose we know now, but..." His eyes locked with Omotashu. Mint followed his gaze.

"Don't go there Ryou. He-"

Omotashu cut her off. "Its okay, Mint. I can understand his hesitation, and I'll answer all you questions. I know you won't let me near the girls unless you know I'm who I say am. I'll do anything just so I can talk with my sister."

Mint was torn. She was mad that Ryou would even suggest that Omotashu wasn't really him, but she was touched by what her brother had said.

"I don't need to question you. I'll do one simple test, and I'll know. Close you eyes." He obeyed. Mint could feel something pass over, but couldn't place what it was. A minute later she felt is pass over again. "You can open your eyes." Mint glared at him for daring to question Omotashu. "It's okay. You're on our side." Mint sniffed.

"Of course he is. Would he be on their side?" She didn't notice the troubled look on Ryou's or the look the two shared over her head. "Let's go somewhere to talk. I need answers, and I can't believe you're here!"

"Where's Masaya?" she said through gritted teeth. She hated him. She hated being chained to a wall unable to move, and unable to do anything to get out of it.

"Your little boyfriend?" He idly twirled the whip he had in his hand. "I've got away for safe keeping. I must say he puts up a might fight. Injured two of my guards. Very fit, that young man. Yes, I see why now," he said as he read Ichigo's thought.

"Why is he here? What does he mean to you?" Ichigo whispered harshly. Kish smiled wickedly and came closer.

"Everything, you have no clue how much."

Masaya glared at closed door while trying to get out his restraints. What in the world had happened? He had fallen asleep at home, and then woke up chained to a wall.

For two days now there had been this odd looking humans, he didn't really think they were that, but didn't know what else to call them. They had been coming into his cell and had tried to hurt him, but with his training he had managed to knock them out for a while. Unfortunately, more had come, too many for him to fight off, and they had beaten him good. The skin on his back still hadn't scabbed over yet while it was all the time being rubbed against the ruff wall behind him.

One of them, he thought the name was Kish, had told him that he had Ichigo and that she was barely alive. He didn't believe that, and Kish had asked him if he was willing to talk now. Talk about what, Masaya didn't now, but Kish had been persistent in saying that Masaya knew something important that he wasn't telling.

Only one thing came to mind, but no one knew about that. She had sworn she wouldn't tell. Was it possible that she had cracked and told someone? He certainly wasn't going to anyone about that, especially since he thought no one knew about it.

Omotashu sat down at the table with Mint across him and Ryou on the other side of her. He took a deep breath before beginning.

"For the past three years I have been living Hong Kong going to school as a transfer student. I was forced to by the foster parents I got assigned to by Kish after he and some of his buddies kidnapped me. You have no idea how cruel he can be. He's a lot worse than you think. You better he doesn't have Ichigo. By the way, shouldn't you be out looking for her?"

"The other girls went on, and I've got people looking for her. For some reason, I think is more important, but do not ask me to explain it," Ryou said simply. Mint looked at him, but shrugged him off.

"Yeah, see, other people are looking for her. I wanted to stay here and talk with you. Have you seen Mom and Dad yet? They'll be thrilled to see you. I'm so glad you're back." She got up from her seat to walk around the table and hug him. Once again he and Ryou shared a worried look over her head. Ryou mouthed, "We need to talk," while his face was the gravest it had ever been.

Author's Note: Why is Ryou so worried and what's the deal with Mint's brother? grins wickedly Only I know, and I'm not telling.
