Disclaimer: nothing but the plot!
without further ado...
Chapter 12
"Come on Sakura, time's a wasting…"
Syaoron just continued shaking his head and held on tighter to her hand. There's no way I'm gonna let Sakura go anywhere with that lunatic.
"Come on Sakura, or else in less than five minutes, everyone here will die." Peter's voice was taunting and he knew that she would have to do what he wanted.
Sakura was torn between staying where she was or doing as Peter wanted. Neither was promising.
Syaoron stood up and faced Peter with an expression of pure hatred and anger. "She will never go to you. You'll never get her you sick twisted bastard."
"Is that so? Then I guess I'll have to let her watch….YOU DYING SLOWLY!" Peter took the gun and aimed it at Syaoron and shot him in the leg.
Syaoron fell down clutching his leg and Sakura got down next to him with tears in her eyes. The people around them were hurriedly being escorted out by their bodyguards while Peter was distracted.
Sakura was crying silently, tears streaming down her face, mascara running. Syaoron reached up and wiped away a few of the tears that streamed down.
"I'll go Syaoron, I can't let him hurt you like this." Sakura whispered.
"No, don't do anything. We'll get through this, and I swear on my father's and your parent's grave that I'll kill him myself if he lays a hand on you." Syaoron was having difficulty talking through the pain and Sakura saw the strain.
Tomoyo got down next to Sakura to comfort her and see if there was anything she could do to help Syaoron. She had tears streaming down her face; she was afraid for her sister-like friend and the fiancé of her sister. Eriol got up from his feet with an expression of pure fury. No one can threaten his friends and bring tears to his fiancée's eyes while he was still alive and kicking. He pushed the emergency button on his cell phone that would automatically bring his friends from his bounty-hunting days there in a second.
"Do you think you'll get away with this? Who the HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE?" Eriol yelled. His hands were in tight fists and he looked as if he'd murder the next person who'd touch him.
"Well, I guess we got another wise ass here. Time to teach you boys a lesson." Peter aimed a shot at Eriol but Eriol jumped behind a table just in time and didn't get shot.
"Eriol stop please. I don't need you to get hurt also." Sakura cried out. Turning to Syaoron she caressed his cheek, which was becoming a bit pale and clammy. "I'll go Syaoron, you're losing blood you need to get to a hospital. I'll be ok Syaoron, you know me." She smiled somewhat, but it wasn't a really reassuring smile. She turned to Tomoyo and Eriol. "Please, take care of him." She stood to leave but Syaoron held on even tighter to her hand. More tears spilled, from both her and Syaoron.
"Don't Syaoron, if you die here, he'll win anyway." She leaned down and gave him a kiss on the lips, "Get better, and find me as soon as you can. Please." She gave him another kiss and left towards the maniac on stage.
"Alright Peter, I'm here. Let them go and turn off the bomb." Sakura said coldly.
"Aww, what's with the coldness. I know you want me." Peter laughed as he looked back to the three still on the floor. "Come on, let's go" He grabbed Sakura's arm and pulled her out the door. Once inside the safety of his car, he turned off the bomb and took it off. Fools, they don't even know it's a fake. HA!
He blindfolded Sakura and drove off. Her hands weren't tied but blindfolded, she couldn't really do much. He headed towards the countryside. His car had no license plate so they'd never be able to track him…so he thinks.
meanwhile
As soon as Peter left the mansion, Eriol's passé came. If only they had gotten hear a minute before…Eriol kept thinking in his head. They immediately called 911; the police, medics and media came. Media flashing cameras everywhere, police questioning witnesses and talking to Eriol about the attack and kidnapping while Syaoron was being treated by the medics with Tomoyo at his side.
Tomoyo tried calling Sakura's cell phone and found it on.
"Syaoron, did Sakura bring her cell phone with her tonight?" Tomoyo asked
"Yea, it was in her purse." Syaoron replied.
Tomoyo looked everywhere for Sakura's purse and found it gone. She must have it with her.
"Syaoron, we can use Sakura's cell phone to track her by satellite." Tomoyo exclaimed.
"Great, I'll get on it…"
"You'll do no such thing. If anything happens to you, Sakura will have Eriol's and my heads on a platter. We'll handle the tracking, you rest up and be ready to kick this bastard's ass when we bust him." Tomoyo was now beyond fired up. She was ready to kick some ass, and she knew exactly who's.
Eriol was having trouble with the police. Because Peter was an American citizen, he was not subject to Japanese law and therefore could not be arrested by the police
"He kidnapped a Japanese citizen! What the hell do you mean he isn't subject to Japanese law!" Eriol yelled at the detective.
"The most we can do is report the situation to the American Embassy." The detective replied.
"Well you goddamn better do something. Sakura is an American and Japanese citizen." Eriol growled. He turned towards Tomoyo and saw her getting into the ambulance with Syaoron. He climbed into the ambulance after her and the two went with Syaoron to the hospital. Eriol would inform Yelan about tonight later, but he probably wouldn't have to with all these reporters everywhere.
At the Li Mansion
Yelan was watching the news at home; her four daughters decided to go and buy some wedding gifts at the mall.
"BREAKING NEWS! The multi-billionaire couple Li Syaoron and Kinomoto Sakura have had one helluva day at the Asian Children's Foundation Fundraiser Auction. An American citizen by the name of Peter Song has intentionally crashed the event and has kidnapped Ms. Kinomoto. In the struggle, Mr. Li was shot in the leg. He is currently at being treated at Tokyo Hospital…." The TV announcer moved on to another topic as Yelan continued to stare at the tv in shock.
"Wei, get the car this instant!" Yelan yelled as she ran up the stairs to get ready.
---With Sakura---
The car stopped in front of a small house in the countryside. There wasn't even a road or anything, and obviously no people for miles. Peter undid the blindfold and tied her hands with the cloth. Sakura looked around trying to find anything familiar she could use to help Syaoron locate her…if she ever found a way to contact him. Peter pushed her towards the door and opened the door as he pushed her inside. The house would've been a nice vacation home. Nice and cozy with no interruptions. Too bad she was here with a psychotic idiot rather than her handsome Syaoron. She could still feel her cellphone in her coat pocket. Thank god she put it on silent or Peter would've taken it away immediately. Maybe, just maybe she'll be able to contact Syaoron and get him to rescue her. I hope he's okay…
"Hey! Hurry up and move inside, you're blocking the doorway." Peter prodded her back and the two moved inside. Sakura sat down on the sofa as Peter kept watching her, making sure she didn't try anything.
"No point in trying to escape sweetheart, you'll never find a way outta this place and there isn't anyone nearby for another 5-6 miles." Peter said confidently.
"Don't think you'll get away with this you sicko…I never led you on so I don't understand where the hell you're getting this idea that I feel something for you…at all." Sakura snapped at him.
The next second, Peter was sitting next to her on the couch with his hands around her waist and whispering in her ear.
"I know you like me…don't try to put up an act." Peter grabbed her and forcefully kissed her on the lips
----At the hospital----
Syaoron came out of surgery in two hours. He had to get a blood transplant because he had lost too much blood. Yelan and Eriol waited outside the O.R. while Tomoyo and the sisters waited in the waiting room. Tomoyo was having a lot of trouble trying to calm down the sisters, who were in a hysterical fit of tears, and they didn't seem to want to stop anytime soon.
The doctor came out of the operation room taking of his mask and gloves.
"How is he?" Eriol and Yelan asked together.
"The surgery went fine and he'll have a full recovery…in about 3 weeks. I know he'd like to be out looking for his fiancée but he needs lots of rest, especially after the blood loss."
"We understand, and we'll make sure Syaoron gets fully rested up." Eriol replied and took Yelan to the waiting room to tell the others.
Syaoron was wheeled out into a room and to recuperate from the surgery. They were allowed to visit him one at a time only, so he won't feel overwhelmed. Of course, he hadn't woken up yet so during that time, Eriol and Tomoyo called the cell phone company to ask them to locate Sakura's cell phone.
It took them about two hours to get the location of Sakura. The phone company didn't want seem to want to cooperate. Of course, after Eriol's threats and Tomoyo's biatching…they finally were able to get the information they needed. Now all they needed was to get in touch with the American Embassy and everything would be fine.
---10 pm---
Syaoron woke up to see white ceilings and his leg in a cast. It took him a few minutes to realize he was in a hospital. Then he realized how he came to be there..and…What happened to Sakura!
Syaoron tried to get up and saw that Eriol was sleeping on a cot and Tomoyo was in the armchair in the corner of the room.
"E...Eri-ol." Syaoron whispered out. His mouth was extremely dry and he drank the glass of water that was next to him on the night table.
"ERIOL!" Syaoron nearly yelled out.
Eriol opened one bleary eye and stared at Syaoron for a second before he realized that Syaoron had finally woken up.
"Ahh Syaoron, you're awake…"
"Cut the crap Eriol" Syaoron cut him off "Where's Sakura?"
