Hi, everyone. Again, I'm here with the newest chapter. If this is a bit lacking, I'm sorry I'm home sick, but I want to write a new chapter. No warnings this chapter.

Chapter Five

Shuichi's POV

I roll over realizing that I'm back on the floor inside the hell hole. I crawl over to the bed and lie down on it. Maiko…I hope she's safe. I still don't understand why they want her. What could she have possibly done to get mixed up into this? I roll on my back feeling every muscle stiffening up. I stare up at the ceiling. I have no idea where she is, or where she would go. What else do they want from me? They can have anything they want…I just don't want them hurting my sister.

I look over at the door seeing another newspaper sitting there. Why would they keep giving me newspapers? I get up and carefully move over to the door. I don't want the door swinging open again. I pick the paper up and stare at it…Yuki…there's a picture of Yuki. "A five million dollar ransom?" I whisper to myself. They are going to come up with five million dollars in two days…how? I read further down the paper. "Yuki is donating some money, and they are holding a fundraiser." Tears roll down my cheeks. He actually cares.

I sit back down on the bed holding the newspaper close to me. I don't want to lose Yuki. I want to see him again. I curl up on the bed holding the newspaper tightly in my grasp. "Yuki, I'm sorry. I'm such a bother," I whisper to the newspaper. Maybe it will answer me. Maybe I'll be able to make him listen. Tears flow more freely now. It's been days since I've seen him…days since I've seen the sunlight or anything from the real world. "Yuki! I'm sorry!" I shout to the walls. I'm sorry…

Hiro's POV

I move around the other side of Yuki and sit down in the quiet waiting room. "Thank you. I know you usually don't sign books."

"Well when I see Shuichi again I'll make sure he makes this up to me."

I smile. "How can you have that much hope? I don't even know if he's alive. They didn't let you talk to him?"

"No, but I believe he's alright."

"K says that he's getting close to tracking him down. They found the car that was parked inside the back entrance to the concert. He's investigating from there. I wonder if Shuichi knows we haven't given up on him."

"I'm sure Shuichi will be fine," Yuki says as the door opens.

"All of the fans are lined up and waiting. For the first five minutes we've already raised one million dollars," Touma says walking over to us. "NG is going to donate whatever we can't raise today."

I look up at him. For someone that hates Shuichi he's willing to help us. "Thank you, sir," I answer standing up and looking over at Fujisaki. He stands up and walks over to me. "How many people are here?"

"You'll see. Don't plan on going home or having a break anytime soon," Touma finishes leading us out of the room and in through the back entrance. Yuki sits down at a table opposite of Fujisaki and I. We first started out saying that it's going to cost twenty dollars for a signed book that you brought in and fifty dollars for a book bought here. I look back at the people piling at the closed glass doors waiting to come in. The stack of books seems to have dropped drastically. I thought people would bring their own books but apparently they wanted a new book.

We are signing CD's, but it's not going to mean much without Shuichi's name on it. There is a special single you can buy here. I found this song almost done whenever I went to Yuki's house the second day of his disappearance. Fujisaki and I named it and worked on the background music. It's a beautiful song talking about his relationship with Yuki. I turn to Fujisaki, "Do you think Shuichi would like what we did with his lyrics?"

"I think so. If he doesn't, then we can always remove the rest of the singles from the stores and have these ones sold here become much more valuable."

"I'm worried about him."

"We all are," Fujisaki states as the doors open and flocks of fans pour into the once quiet room. Half of the fans go to Yuki while the other half come to us. A lot of the fans send their prays and hopes that Shuichi is found alive and well. Some of them leave whatever money they had left on the table with us. I tried to give it back to them, but they won't have it back. I guess this shows that Shuichi is loved. I blink away my watering eyes. Maybe we can raise enough money today. Fujisaki moves the money to a box under the table while I continue signing the CD's and passing it over to him. Hang on Shuichi…if this money doesn't get you back to us, then I'm sure K will find you.

Sorry about the short chapter. I'm going to go lie down now nn Thank you for reading please review
