Chapter 13: Kidnapped…

It all happened so quickly; we were all on the porch, watching the dark figure approach Tomoyo. When all of the sudden we heard Eriol tumble backwards, we turned to see what happened, we saw Eriol being carried over the shoulder of someone, but as we got up to retrieve him we heard a piercing scream, we turn towards Tomoyo only to find her not there. We heard screeching tires in the distant, we knew they had left, but we took off running in that direction anyways. We came to a road, and far, far into the distance, so far in fact that you would have to squint your eyes you could see the head light of a van drive above the speed limit. That was the last thing I saw before I past out.

I woke up on the coach in the living room with everyone surrounding me. Chiharu was the first to respond; she pounced on me and bawled into my shoulder. I hugged her tightly, and patted her back, I whispered soothing words into her ear, but before I knew it was crying too. I adjusted myself so that Chiharu could sit comfortably on the coach, and we sat there crying, sniffing, with Syaoran's and Takashi's sad eyes watching us. Either of us said a word.

"Sakura, let's go to bed. We can look for them in the morning."

-sniff-sniff-"I don't really want to walk up there" I said.

"I'll carry you, c'mon." he said offering me his hand to help me up.

"What about Chiharu? She's asleep" I said gesturing towards the sleeping figure next to me.

"I'll take care of her, you guys go ahead." Takashi said. I nodded in response and put my hand in Syaoran's and pulled myself up. He swiftly picked me up bridal style.

"You could've carried me you know..." I said

"Yeah, but just incase you fall asleep" he said, all so knowingly. I once again nodded this time with a soft "oh". We went up the stairs in silence and half through the hall way that led to our room when the silence was broken.

"Syaoran…?" I called as I snuggled closer into his chest.

"Hm…" he answered; I could feel the vibration of his voice.

"Do you think we'll be able to find Tomoyo and Eriol?" I asked, almost in a whisper.

"Yeah" he said, as he put me down to the open the door. I walked in the room and jumped into bed immediately without even bothering to change.

"No shower? No PJ's?" I heard Syaoran ask from the closet.

"No" I answered, and continued to make myself comfortable. After a couple minutes I felt Syaoran jump into bed besides me, as I was half way asleep. I felt his arms wrap around me and pull me closer. And that's where I laid while I slept, and dreamed of the day ahead.

I woke up the next morning in a good mood, I almost forgot about what happened, that is until I walked into Tomoyo's room. I stood there, looking around the room; it was so lifeless, but yet so filled with so many characteristics of the living. There were articles of clothing thrown around a hamper, I smiled, a small smile, it was just like Tomoyo and Eriol to be organized. Their bathroom's sink glistened the reflection of light from the window, you could see the many concoctions of Tomoyo, that made her herself every morning, through the open door. A gentle scent of lavender and mint swept through the room. I walked over to her bed and climbed in… I missed her so much, I cried silently. I cried for who knows how long, until I felt some one gently shake me. I looked up and saw Syaoran.

"I called our parents" he said.

"Oh…" I didn't really know what else to say.

"Their really worried, they want us to come home as soon as we find them" I nodded, that's understandable, they'll probably want to be closer to us. He continued, "their really freaking out about the security, since they spent a lot of money on top notch security, their really shocked that the kidnappers were even able to get within 100 feet of the house." I jus shrugged in response, but still, it didn't make sense, if our parents hired the best security then how did they get that close?

"Maybe the kidnappers were apart of the security." I suggested. He looked at me with a raised eye brow.

"Maybe. Let's go check the attendance of the security guards." I nodded and lifted myself up.

"I'll go get Chiharu and Takashi, you call your mom and find out where they check in." I said as I walked out the door.

:.:Later that day:.:

We are walking towards the back of the house; there was a double door that latched open that led down to an underground room. That is where the guards were supposed to check in everyday that they showed up to work. We stepped through the doors and walk down a couple of steps, below us we could see a man looking at security cameras that were set up through out the house, we continued to walk in silence, when one of us stepped on a loose floor board.

"WHO'S THERE?" a voiced boomed as we walked down the wooden stairs.

"We're some of the heirs" I heard Syaoran answer, in the darkness.

"Oh! I'M SORRY! What brings you down here, sir?" an officer asked, who was apparently in charge.

"We're here to check your attendance sheet" I answered; we agreed earlier that if they didn't ask what happened we wouldn't tell them.

"Oh right this way," said moving aside so that we could step into the light. He offered each of us a seat before walking over to a table to next to the TV's and picking up sheets from a printer. "This is the attendance sheet from the last 48 hours, we printed them less than 15 minutes ago." He informed us. Syaoran nodded and took the sheets.

"Does this also list the employees that were suppose to be here but weren't?" he asked, after a couple minutes of looking.

"No, but I can't get you a sheet that does"

"Please do" the officer nodded curtly and walked over to a computer and typed in a password, clicked the mouse a few times, and before we knew it sheets of attendance were coming out of the printer.

"So what brings you guys down here? Mrs. Li never said anything about random check ups" the officer asked.

"We had a kidnapping last night" Takashi said, taking the sheets from him.

"And you think it's one of our men?" he said.

"Yes actually we do." Chiharu answered. "How else could some one get past security?"

"Good point…" he muttered. Syaoran and Takashi scooted closer together to compare sheets.

"Is there any men that you know of that was related to the Hiiragizawa's?" Syaroan asked.

"Yeah, this one guy, Yoshi Ping" he officer answered, "he always brgged about it with the boys on their break."

"Was he seen in the area last night?" Syoaran asked, looking up.

"Not that I know of." The officer answered.

:.:20 Minutes later:.:

"THAT WAS COMPLETELY USELESS," I said flopping onto my bed.

"No, at least now, we know who our guy is."

I'm going to end it here for now. This chapter was kind of useless, sorry! Better update next time, I promise (I say this every time).
