Sparking Interest chapter 11

Roy glanced over at the clock as the neon red letters blinked 3:47. He had spent the last couple hours watching her temperature, wetting her sweating skin with cool clothes, sitting on the floor tending to her on the couch.

He blinked his tired eyes and looked at her face. She had finally fallen asleep. He slipped his hand beneath her bangs and sighed with relief knowing that her temperature was finally breaking. He stood, stretched his sore knees and then bent over, sliding one arm around her moist back, and one under her knees.

Riza blinked her eyes open and yawned. She felt like she had gone threw the worst night of her life. Beside her, Roy was sleeping soundly. She smiled and glanced over to him. His faced looked weathered and tired even though at the moment he was sleeping. She groaned as she pealed the thin blanket from her moist body. Even with the thin blanket she still ended up sweating.

Deciding not to wake the sleeping beauty she thought with a chuckle, she pulled on a black silk slip that stopped at her upper thigh and had a sheer but not to sheer bust line. She walked to the main room and into the kitchen. Opening the fridge, she smiled and gave a content sigh as the cold air cooled her upper body.

Taking in a deep breath, she gasped as a cloth covered her mouth. She immediately clawed and gripped at the mans arm. He took in a deep breath as she ripped at his leather jacket. Stomping on his foot she was able to pry herself from his now loosened arm. She stumbled, trying to get away, but she had already breathed in a lot of the substance. She fell to the floor, and opened her mouth to scream, unfortunately the man covered her mouth with the cloth once again, cursing as he struggled with the girl finally knocking her out, and carrying her out the door.

Roy turned, reaching out for Riza only to find cold sheets. His eyes snapped open and he sighed. "Riza! I told you to wake me up in the morning! Are you sick again? Last night wasn't your best night I hope that doesn't happen again," He rambled as he pulled on a white business shirt and sweat pants. He walked out the door and glanced around the room.

"Riza?" He asked then noticed the open freezer door and the ajar front door.

"RIZA!" He screamed running to the door. "Shit! RIZA! Where are you! RIZA!" He yelled running his fingers threw his dishevel hair. He grid his teeth then ran back inside. Picking up the phone he immediately dialed to his office.

"Hel…" Hughes cheerful voice rang but Roy wouldn't allow him to even finish.

"Hughes! They took her! She wasn't in bed and I looked, and the freezer door, and the front, and the smell, and I lost her! She's gone that bastard came into my home and took her! He found us and he took her!" He rambled.

"Woo, wait a second, breath Roy. Okay, first lets make that more than one sentence…" he muttered.

"Mase I am not screwing with you! I don't have time to joke, where did they go!" He screamed into the phone. "Roy we don't know we haven't found him yet, we ended up loosing him around some bend…" Mase explained when Roy interrupted with a sharp hiss.

"That's not good enough! What the hell have you guys been doing while I was gone! No matter if I' m there or not you still have to do your fucking jobs!" He screamed.

"Roy, I'm on your team remember?" his friend calmly reminded him. Roy sighed and rubbed his temples. "Sorry." He muttered and took a deep breath.

"They took her," he muttered. "I know, I've already told the team, we've got Havoc waiting to see if there's any ransom, and everyone else is out looking at every lead we have. Ill send someone to come pick you up." He said. Roy nodded and sighed an ok before hanging up. He set his head in his hands cursing himself for letting himself fall asleep and take his eyes off her.

Roy tore his way threw the hallway. People moved to make way, scared he would run them down if they didn't move quick enough. Mase jumped as the door swung open, and the door knob went threw the newly patched wall once again.

At the sight of the new hole Mase let out a sigh, but thought better than to say anything. He set down the phone as Roy slammed his hands down on the desk. "Where is she!" He yelled. "Man you look like hell where's your driver?" he asked. "She's pulling into the parking lot" He scoffed.

Mase looked up at him once again. "What? You got out of the car before she got in the parking lot?" He asked staring at him like he was crazy. "She was driving to slow" he grunted. Mase sighed. "Sit down, close your eyes, you look like you've gained ten years" he sighed.

"Yes, you see these wrinkles, there from worrying. Worry wrinkles. You know Riza always says I make her worry so much I give her grey hairs. Am I graying? Hell my hairs probably brighter than the sun." He grumbled.

"Roy, we are doing everything we can. Everyone is doing their best, we all love Riza, you know that…" he began then looked up and saw the door open. "We just received these!" Havoc said as he ran to the desk. Roy took the manilla folder and opened it, turning it upside down.

A cassette player fell to the wooden desk along with pictures.

Roy fingered the pictures. One had Riza lying on a bed. She was in her black silk nightgown, her hair tied up in a loose bun, they had put black heals on her, and dark smoky eye shadow.

Mase placed in the cassette and pressed play. "Hello there Mustang. I've found you as you've probably noticed. And I think it very fun of you to have taken her under your protective wing so I wouldn't get her, but I want you to know you're little girl will feel so much pleasure before she dies. Oh and so you know, she's a very fisty girl. A spit fire with a filthy mouth and dark hungry eyes." The man's evil voice came from the cassette.

Roy gripped his fists so hard, his knuckles turned white. "He's taunting me!" He yelled. "Don't let it get to you" Havoc muttered. Roy glanced at him. "He's got my girlfriend! You think hearing him talking about her like that isn't going to get to me?" He growled. "SHH!" Mase chided as he put it up to his ear.

"it's Riza!" He muttered. Roy took it and pulled it to his ear. He could hear Riza yelling at her capturer In the backround.

"What kind of man needs to capture a woman and tie her up just so they can score, afraid you can't keep up with other men?" she asked. "SHUT UP!" Collins yelled at her. "you're weak! You can't handle a woman so you have to knock her out? Tie her up?" She spit back.

"That's my Riza, insulting her kidnappers even when she's in danger. No fear." Roy sighed.

"Oh I'll be handeling you don't worry" The man yelled back. Roy grit his teeth and growled. "Wait do you hear that?" Mase asked. Roy quieted and set the player back to his ear. His eyes widened. "That sounds like construction!" He muttered.

"The only building that's under construction is on 45th street" Havoc muttered. "Call Furey, tell them to meet us there with backup." Hughes said as he grabbed his jacket and followed the speedy Roy to the car.
