Roxanne held her stomach, grunting at the pain as hunger consumed her thoughts and ached her body. Her head pounded as she lie on the bed, not doing much to comfort her body. She new her baby needed to eat. She had to eat for two. But she just couldn't take the chance of that man poisoning her once again. Even so, she may have to.
"Kick. Please kick." she pleaded to the baby, rubbing her stomach, remembering the way Megamind used to. The babe hadn't moved the entire day. She had no idea how long it had been since she first woke up in the dark room, but she new she needed to be out. To feel the sun on her face, to breath the fresh air again. To be held in the arms of her lover.
She licked her lips for the hundredth time, feeling the chapped dry skin that felt sore under her tongue, but for some reason she couldn't stop licking them. Knock,knock, knock!
Roxanne opened her eyes a little, but couldn't keep it. She closed them again, and her eyes burned in side her skull and exhaustion took her over. The door opened and a bright blinding light filled the room. She didn't bother to look up. She just lie there holding onto her stomach. The light made a bright red shade cover over her eyes that had made them hurt even more and she moved an arm up to cover them.
"Roxy, you really must eat something."
She didn't respond, which made her captor worry a bit. He walked over to her bed side and examined her body. It had only been five days, but already under her eyes were a dark purple, and her lips dry and even a bit blue from the cold air. Her skin was covered in goose bumps, and her feet were cracked at the heels. Maybe he should have let her keep her socks. But she was being so damn stubborn. He had to make her pay some how.
Perhaps he was being too hard on her though. But what was he supposed to do. She was being stubborn, and she must see the error of her ways. She must . . . she must see . . . see the-. He swallowed hard and placed a hand on her cheek. Roxanne felt the warmth of his hand and wanted to draw it in, to feel it all over her body, but she hadn't the strength to move. She had forgotten who's hand it was, and her thoughts were only of those to trap the warmth and keep it to her self. The man sighed and picked her up, cradling her against his chest. Taking her out of the room, he made his way up the stairs and up into the house. He lied her on his sofa that sat right in front of the fire place. Running to get a blanket, he opened it up and tucked her in, placing a pillow under her head. When he did this, he say as he looked down upon her, the slightest smile at the corner of her lips.
Megamind felt as if he were going no where. Metro Man had let the people know about Roxanne's kidnapping, and had the entire city searching. But no luck. It was now day three, and still nothing. He searched everywhere, all day, and all night. He know sit on on a snow covered bench in the Metro City Park. Fortunately his leather pants kept his undies from getting wet, however, unfortunately those leather pants were the same exact once he wore five days ago when they first started the search. Megamind had sat there for an hour, and his thoughts blinded together like water, where soon he drifted to sleep.
He woke in a haze 13 hours later in his bed. Rubbing his eyes he sat up and tried to remember what he was doing.
'I was at the park. Right. How did I get home though? When did I fall asleep?' These questions were very important and getting up he went down stair case and into the kitchen where Metro Man, Bill, and Minion sat around the table talking amongst themselves. Megamind looked at the clock on the wall in the kitchen and saw it was about 5:30 in the afternoon. It was already getting dark outside and the street lights had come on. He made his way to the table and sat in the chair next to Minion.
"Megamind, it's good to see you up." said Metro Man.
"Why did you let me fall asleep. We are no where on finding Roxy, and I need to search every second I'm awake."
"Megamind. You are of no use when you cant even walk straight because you are too tired. Believe me, the more sleep you get the better you will be to finding Roxanne."
"Metro Man is right. You look better already even. Now let's order out some really good dinner and then we can continue the search." suggested Minion.
"But Minion -."
"No buts Megamind. We are doing this." said Metro Man and Megamind lied his head on the table. Minion had expected an exaggerated sigh, but it looked like he was too upset to mess around. They ordered Chinese food, and Megamind hurried to eat it, though that decision isn't go well for his stomach, for he had barely even eaten since the disappearance of his woman. As Metro Man finished his last bite, there came a knock on the door.
