Hello again! This is the next chapter and I think you'll like it! On with the show! Oh and princess hannah I didn't ever get around to explaining that Chris is in the Big Brothers Big sisters program...Sorry for the mis-communication...

Disclaimer: I don't own Metal gear or Sara or Isaac or sara's mother.

"Jack..."Chris wrapped her arms around his neck as he continued his passionate assault on her neck.

He stopped and held her tightly to himself. It reminded him of that night he came to her. How close they were that night. He wanted to keep her like that. He wanted to love her like that.

"Chris lets just stay like this. Even if it doesn't last forever for today lets just stay like this." He pleaded.

"Jack...I can't. Not with Sara around. I can't." She tried to pull away from him, but he wouldn't let her go, "Jack...please."

Raiden wouldn't let her go, "Chris...do you-"

"CHRIS!" Both Raiden and Chris looked toward the door.

Sara suddenly busted into the room as Raiden and Chris bolted from each other. Both were flustered and straightened up.

"Sara, what's wrong?" Chris bent down and grabbed Sara.

"Uncle Dave's going to catch me!"Sara told her.

A sudden roar filled the room as Snake entered the room acting like a zombie, "Uhhhhhhh!"

Sara laughed and held onto Chris, "Mr. Jack! Save us!"

Raiden closed his eyes and took a deep breath before he took on another less serious persona, "Don't worry maladies this vile creature shall not harm you!"

He walked over to Snake and flicked him between the eyes. Snake blinked a few times, "Hey that hurt!"

"Well Snake you should be more cautious like a deer in the woods." Otacon walked in.

"Oh please not again..." Snake rubbed his forehead.

"Hey that one was actually pretty good, considering some of his other ones." Chris chuckled.

Otacon frowned, "What's wrong with my advice?"

Everyone in the room, other then Sara and Otacon, busted out laughing. Chris smiled, "No offense Otacon, but they don't really help anyone."

"Yea well I tried..." Otacon smiled and sighed.

"Chris?" Sara poked her nose, "Chris, can we go to the zoo?"

Chris smiled, "As a matter a fact, that is precisely what we are going to do!" She put Sara down, "Go grab your coat and wait at the door!"

Sara saluted and ran off. Otacon smiled, "You know she is was one of the most intelligent and immature child I've ever met."

"Well this is when she feels she can be a child. Back at home her mother devotes herself to being the Colonel. So she kinda feels like she's a little soldier at times." Chris looked down at her feet and clenched her fist, " An now her mother is staying with her brother Isaac. He had an accident recently and fell off a library balcony. He sustained critical injuries to his head and slipped into a coma a week and a half ago..."

"I thought it was a bit short notice that Sara just suddenly dropped in." Snake leaned up against the door frame.

"Yea...well I don't know when we'll be back. I think I might take her to a movie after the zoo." She started to leave.

"Bye!" Otacon let her by.

She waved and walked past Snake who tripped her, "Thanks a lot Uncle Dave!"

"No problem..." He laughed his gruff laugh as she and Sara left.


"Chris can I have a penguin?" Sara stood on the railing looking at the penguins swimming around.

"Maybe if you moved to Alaska." Chris smiled as Sara laughed.

"You know Mr. Jack really likes you." Sara stared into space.

Chris looked down at her, "Oh really? Did he tell you that?"

"Yes he did and he's really sad that you won't talk to him...Nearly cut his finger because of his train of thought." Sara smiled up at Chris, "I think you two should get together." She jumped down from the railing and walked toward the exit of the polar exhibit.

Chris stood alone for a moment thinking on the little girls words, "CHRIS!"

Chris ran out the exit feeling something ram right into her stomach. She fell to her knees holding her stomach. Eyes closed tightly she couldn't see the vicious blows that were being sent her way.

"Tch tch...Crystal love you should know better then to go tell someone of our plan." Chris looked up from the ground to see the slimy sadistic Dominia, with a smile planted on his face.

"Chris..." Sara struggled against Dominia's bruising grip.

"Dominia, let her go!" Chris tried to get up only to be beaten down by Dominia's goons.

"CHRIS!" Sara was crying.

Dominia looked around at the people staring at them, "CUT! That's enough for today wrap it up!" The public relaxed and continued on there way. Dominia shoved Sara into one of the other man's hands and kneeled next to Chris, "As I was saying you should know better, and in French no less. Come on love, I'm Italian not stupid!"

"You bugged me..."She couldn't see straight.

He smiled, "You told..." He got up and grabbed Sara again, "I'll be keeping her for insurance you do understand of corse."

"No!... Agh!" Chris fell once more and watched helplessly as Sara was dragged away from her.

"CHRIS! CHRIS! NO!" Sara broke free of Dominia and tried to run back only to be picked up by a goon.

Everything was going in slow motion and without sound. This couldn't be happening. Chris just laid there. She felt broken again. Helpless. Alone. Alone? She got up and ran.


Shaw concentrated all his efforts on trying to make this quick and easy. It wasn't working there weren't any spot points at this race track. He heard the door open along with a little voicing crying. He rolled out of a small cubical to see what the commotion was.

"Oh dear gods..." He got up and walked swiftly over to Dominia, "This wasn't part of the plan!"

"Things change..." Dominia brushed past him.

Shaw quickly went to Sara, "Are you alright little one?" ,She nodded slowly, "Okay why don't you come with me. Is that okay? I'm gonna take care of you until Chris come's and gets you alright?"

Sara nodded and hugged him around the neck. Oh gods how he missed his own children. His own loving wife and four lovely children. They had to end this, one way or another it was going to end.

Aww Shaw is my favorite character. He's a big softie anyways hope you enjoy! Please R&R!
