Thank you, Juju17 for the review, I'm glad you liked it!

I was rereading chapter three and I realized that the whole time I was spelling Tokyo wrong. I was spelling it Toyo. Told you I suck at spelling.

Chapter 4

All she could remember after that was being retrained and being hit in the head, hard.

When Mai woke up she was in a dark place like cellar. The floor was cold like the hands of the men who had seized her. Mai was without a jacket or sweater so she found herself shivering. She was scared. Suddenly, the sound of boot heels was heard down the hall. The footsteps were coming toward the stall.

Mai got to her feet in a quick motion. The owner of those boots stopped in front of Mai's cell. He was a burly man with a huge body and a face hard and ugly.

"I'm glad you're finally up," said the dark man, with a deep voice.

Mai was not in the mood to be casual about something like this.

"Why the hell am I here!" she yelled.

"Well we already took all your money from your purse," the man said as he lit up a cigarette. Mai suddenly realized that her purse was missing. This made her even angrier.

"Fine! Now let me go!" Mai said louder than before.

"Why? You'd probably just go tell the police, we can't have that, now can we?" he replied taking a puff of his cigarette.

"So you intend on keeping me here?" Mai asked.

"No, we'll probably kill you first."

Mai had been in tough situations before. This one scared her almost as much as the one in "Battle City." But then Joey was there to save her. Now he was almost a whole country away and couldn't help her. She was feeling helpless, defenseless and frightened. A few years ago she was Miss Don't Let Any One Help You. And she didn't need or trust anyone but herself.

But she did need help. Mai accepted it now. She was too scared to deny it anymore.

"Heh, I almost feel sorry for you now," the man said.

He began to laugh and turned to leave.

"Wait don't leave me here! Please! Let me out!" Mai screamed after him.

But he didn't come back. No one did. She was alone.

Mai rested her head on the bars imprisoning her. When she felt the first teardrop fall from her eye she knew she weak but she didn't care anymore. Soon it would be all over and it wouldn't matter anyway.

Serenity and her brother spent the next day packing for Tokyo. Joey didn't know why Serenity took so long to pack all her things. In Joey's case, all he needed was a hairbrush, a toothbrush and two pairs of clothes. But Serenity and every other girl he knew insisted on packing twenty pairs of clothes and every accessory in their home.

"Sis! Hurry up! I have waiting for you for like thirty minutes," Joey yelled.

"But I'm not ready! I still have to pack all my makeup!" Serenity compiled.

"WE'RE GOING TO BE LATE FOR OUR FLIGHT!"

"No we're not," Serenity said quite relaxed as she immerged from her dressing room.

"It's only 9:00. Our flight leaves 11:00," she added.

"Oh…really…well then a can finish watching TV." Joey said as he settled back into the couch.

"Oh Joey, I wanted to take you out to breakfast," Serenity said.

"Serenity, we can get breakfast at the airport. There are millions of mini restaurants there." Joey wined.

"Do I really have to drag you everywhere?"

Just then the phone rang.

"Oh I'll get that since you're glued to the couch," Serenity said sarcastically.

As she picked up the phone and began talking her face started losing all its color. The only thing she said was "Oh my God" and "Ok, let me know if you find out anything more."

She hung up the phone, speechless.

"What happened? Who was that?" Joey asked, a little concerned.

"That was Tea. She said that she called Mai's home phone, and cell phone, which she didn't answer, and she can't find her anywhere."

"She said she's highly concerned because this has never happened before and something was scaring her about Mai missing."
