Chapter 11: Enter Laboratory

Markus awoke with a pounding headache, groaning, he sat up and looked around him. He was in a cage again, but this one was bigger than the last one so that didn't pose much of a problem. The problem was, was the fact that he was in a cage and that they had found him. As far as he was concerned, the camping trip was a surprise and no one really knew about it.

Unless Nekozawa told someone which he doubted.

Reaching up he tried to see if he still had the flower crown on his head, but sadly, he didn't. Muttering under his breath, he crawled foreward and peeked through the bars at the front of his cage.

Outside was a table with another one of the experiments on it, this one, thankfully or sadly he didn't know which, was dead. The scientist seemed to be disecting it and that made the nekos' stomach churn.

Moving back to the corner of the cage, Markus curled up and hoped that Kyoya and the others would come soon.

The others

As soon as Markus was taken, Kyoya was on his cellphone, calling everybody he could to get their friend back. Pacing as he talked hurriedly he finally sat in a chair with his wrists pressed to his eyes to try and stop crying.

Haruhi walked over to Kyoya, rubbing his back soothingly as Hunny clung to Mori and Tamaki freaking out. The twins where just talking lowly to each other but anyone could see the panic in their eyes.

"WE NEED TO GO AFTER HIM!" Tamaki finally annouced, causing the rest of them to jump at the sudden annoucement.

"But Boss, how can we follow his trail?" Kaoru asked and Tamaki chuckled.

"Easy, they weren't subtle about taking him," he said, pointing to the destroyed folage.

Everyone quickly headed in that direction, Kyoya's face a determaned mask as they followed the trail to a dirt road. Again, the shadow king called, this time the limo to come around to where the dirt road was.

Once the car reached the dirt road, they took off down the road, following the tracts until they reached a main road.

Kyoya was on his laptop with Haruhi beside him, looking over every square inch of the map he had brought up to try and figure out areas where they could be while on the phone, talking/ordering people around. The female member finally pulled, to the shock of everyone, Kyoya's laptop away and started hunting herself.

"There are a couple areas aroudn where they might have Markus, but I'm not sure which," she said, looking each area over carefully.

"Why not split up and search each area?" Hikaru offered and Tamaki shook his head.

"No, it's too dangerous, we should let the police force do so," Tamaki said, a bit timid now.

"Was is not you who said we should go after them?" Kyoya countered and the Host King shrugged.

"And we did, getting this far, but how can we get in there and get Markus? These aren't our average foes," Tamaki, for once, wisely said. "We can give what we got to your people and be there when they take them down, getting a few ourselves, but not even we stand a chance.

The shadow king sighed, knowing that sadly, he had been bested by Tamaki. Only because he let his emotions get the best of him. Feeding his crew the info, they went to the nearest home, Hunny's and waited.

It was several hours later that they got a call saying that they checked 4 of the 5 and from preliminary searching it seemed that this was the one. The Host Club raced out of the home and to the limo where they hopped in and drove to the fifth building after Kyoya gave the driver the address.

It took the 20 minutes with traffic and soon they where waiting outside while the team went in and started arresting people.

Markus PoV

He was still in the cage when the team came in. The scientist had finished whatever they where doing to the boy they had been disecting and had tossed the body in a bag to be disposed of. The neko didn't miss this one bit as he curled on his side with his back to the front.

He was lightly dozing when voices reached his ears. Twitching them back he moved and saw the police come, recognizing the name as the people belonging to Kyoya. Smiling with releif he awaited to be released though it took awhile as they arrested all of the scintist though a few that they had found in the middle of something allowed to finish so that the children wouldn't die.

As soon as Markus was released he raced outside and straight to Kyoya, clinging to him. "Kyoya!" he cried happily as everyone turned and held him close.

Each one was chanting Markus's name softly, petting his hair and ears as Kyoya was just holding him tight, seeming to never want to let him go again. Markus wrapped his arms around his neck as they moved back to the limo.

Over PoV

They headed back to Hunnys' place, everyone ending up deciding to spend the night as Kyoya and Markus never letting go of each other as Haruhi clung to his other arm.

"So tell me, what happened?" Tamaki asked as everyone sat around a table, most eating, though Markus just snuggled against the glasses wearing male.

"I'd rather not right now," Markus said softly as he closed his eyes.

A/N: um…yeah, here we go. I'm going to finish this story before working on another that everyone wants me to do XP

But I also want to do my OC comic that I have on Smackjeeves and DA.
