'It's cold…'
…
'My whole body hurts…'
…
'What the hell happened?'

Senichi's eyes flew open as he fully regained conscious. The sight he was met was total darkness. He could feel some kind of cloth tied around his head, preventing him from seeing where he was. His wrists and ankles were bound tightly by rope, digging into his skin enough to be uncomfortable but not very painful. A strip of duct tape kept his mouth shut.
'Fuck. I've been kidnapped,' He realized. He moved his limbs around and ended up hitting several objects. He wasn't even able to sit up and only ended up bumping his head against something hard. 'I can feel whatever I'm in is moving and judging by the fact that it's hella cramp in here and there's a bunch of other stuff, I'm probably in a car trunk,'
Getting kidnapped was most definitely not in his agenda. 'How did I even get kidnapped? My memories are a bit fuzzy. All I remember is darkness. I think there was an alley? I can also recall Sable's barking? After that, everything is pretty incomprehensible to me at the moment,'
He tested out as much movement in his body as possible in the confined space. 'None of my bones seem to be broken or fractured, though I think I have a few bruises. I hope I had put up a fight. If Sable was with me then…' His eyes widened. 'No…he can't be dead! Sable's alive! Sable…Sable went to get help! He can't have been killed…right? These people aren't so cruel that they'd kill a dog!'
He started panicking but did his best to take deep breaths through his nose. He couldn't afford to panic. Panicking leads to reckless actions, actions that he could not afford to take. Once his breathing was even, he had calmed down enough to think rationally. 'It's pretty useless to keep track of the twist and turns at this point. Who knows how long I've been out? It could have been hours or it could have been days. I don't even know if I'm still in the same city, or even the same country. I could be in Wales or even Scotland!'

He heard the sound of the trunk clicking open and felt a sudden warmth on his exposed skin. "This here brat's gonna be in the J Cell with the other three brats,"
'J Cell?' Senichi was forcibly removed from the trunk and thrown down to the hard pavement. 'He said other three brats. So there are three other children that were kidnapped? That means that I wasn't targeted specifically. At first, I thought they were people who had grudges against my family, probably my mom since she's MI6. But apparently these people are just criminals that go after children,'
"Try anything and I'll break a leg," The ropes binding his ankles together were cut.
'As much as I want to kick them—there are at least two males from what I can tell by their voices—in the balls, I know it's a stupid move,' Senichi complied and was forced to get up and start walking in the direction he was being led in. 'I don't know how many enemies there are and this is their turf. Plus, my wrists are still tied and I'm blindfolded. Those would take time to undo, time I won't have. I know for sure that I'd be overpowered, especially since I'm only ten years old,'
Suddenly, he heard something heavy and iron creak open, possibly a gate or door of some sorts. Without any warning, he was shoved and fell hard onto the floor. He heard the loud creak once again. "Go ahead and free your new cellmate. Best you guys get acquainted because none of you four are going anywhere," The guards' footsteps echoed in the hallway, softening as they got farther and farther.
"Stay still," A young boy's voice, one thick with a foreign accent, told him. "I'm going to undo the ropes," After a few minutes of fumbling and struggling, the ropes were finally loose.
Senichi immediately tore the blindfold and gag off in a single action each. He gasped a bit, finally able to breathe through his mouth and not just his nose. His eyes scanned the room—the holding cell—he was currently residing in. It was approximately ten by six feet if he had to make a rough estimate. Three of the sides were solid walls with no windows. The one other side were a bunch of cell bars with a locked door. In the farthest corner was a bucket and, judging by the disgusting scent it radiated, it was a makeshift toilet.
Not too far from him were three other figures. The oldest was a young teenager, probably around thirteen years old, with short, messy, silver hair and azure eyes. The other two were younger than Senichi, maybe around four years old. It was their appearance that startled him. The girl had long silver hair in a single braid. The boy had, like his elder brother, messy short, messy, silver hair. But it was their eyes that had made Senichi nervous; the girl had a single blue eye and a transparent one while the boy's eyes were green.
'T-They're Curacao and Gin!' Senichi thought, scooting away from the three until his back hit the hard wall. 'Those eyes are definitely Curacao's and Gin's!'
"Are you alright?" The teenager asked. "They didn't hurt you too badly, right?"
'Who is that guy?' Senichi stared at the one person he couldn't recognize. 'He looks like he could be Gin and Curacao's older brother. But that can't be. They don't have an older brother. Wait, I need to think logically here. Gin and Curacao are not the only people in the world to have silver hair. Green and blue eyes are also not that special. Akai has green eyes and Kichi and I have blue eyes. Heterochromia is rare but there are other people besides Curacao who has it. And if those two were actually twins, then that would mean that Gin killed her in the Darkest Nightmare. There's no way they're Gin and Curacao!'
"I'm fine," Senichi managed to say. "Thank you for untying me,"
"My name is Ahren Klein," The teen introduced. "These two are my brother and sister, Brendan Klein and Harimanna Klein,"
"I'm Senichi Akai," He replied. "Judging from your accent, you're not from England,"
"Nein," The teen shook his head. "We are from Germany and were just visiting England with our mother when these people kidnapped us,"
'They called this Cell J,' Senichi peered through the bars and caught sight of other cells with four imprisoned children each. 'So many children…stripped of their freedom and torn away from their families…If all the cells from A to Z each have four children, that's one hundred and four children that were kidnapped!'

Hiyori:
I'm glad Kohji believes Senichi :) and good fanfiction there, even Tsutomu cried xD
Oh, that teacher's dead? *innocent smile* never thought Alistair's brother, Craton has connections with mafia, hmm... will Alistair become involves with Senichi later in the story? he's such a good friend to Sen :)
Skai:
Honestly, the only reason I actually put a fanfiction in the last chapter was I felt the word count was too small.
As for Alistair being involved in future chapters? I don't know yet. I haven't prewritten to any point where they'd be prominent yet, though he and Craton might make brief cameos.
