Ok so I had this whole abduction scene going through my head but I just cannot write it down, I don't want that creepy doctor getting his slimy hands on Naozumi or his baby. So my cliffy from last chapter wasn't as dramatic as I was hoping it would be. I'm sorry but I just couldn't see him being captured by that guy, maybe later but right now I just want the three reunited before that happens. So please bear with me. Read and Review. Much loves to all my reviewers.

Naozumi was calmly sipping on a cup of warm slightly mint flavored water, a plant that grew in plenty right alongside of the soap plants along the shore line. He was humming a slight tune to his growing child when he heard a sound that was not that of any of the local animals he had ever heard.

It sounded like a machine really; this gave him a quick jolt of hope and an after flash of fear, he clearly remembered that the scientist that wanted to get his hands on him. Quickly deciding that he knew Iason wouldn't take this long to find him and frankly he didn't want anyone to fine him unless it was Iason or Riki.

Standing he quickly made his way over to the door of his house and reached inside and grabbed the pack he had by the door at all times. Looking in the direction that the noise was coming from he knew that that hiding place was out of the question he didn't want anyone to see him, crouching down he quickly made his way to the east to the left of where the noise of was coming from. He reached the tree line without noticing any other approaching machine or men. He was halfway to his hiding spot when he heard the sound of a twig being stepped on, looking toward the noise he knew he was out of luck, and quite frankly he wasn't going to go down without a fight.

The man had reached his location but obviously didn't see him yet, but knew he was headed this way, it didn't matter as soon as the person was slightly in front of him he quickly sprang from his hiding spot and quickly kidney punched the man from behind, while simultaneously kicking the right knee from behind he brought the man to a slightly better position to grab the man's head and give a quick jerk snapping the man's neck. It was over before it even started, turning the body over he quickly removed the protective armor and noticed the logo printed on the front.

It was one he knew of, oh yes it was definitely one he knew of, during the training sessions for the pet show Iason and Riki were trying to prepare him for he was taught many of the houses he should try and gain favor with thorough the choosing of pets.

The symbol was one he was told with absolute firmness that he should in no way shape or form associate himself with. The symbol was that of two crossed swords with a diamond shape surrounding it, it represented the House Serena, notorious for its dealings in the black market but even then it was dealing in the genetic experimentation, human trafficking, and the buying and selling of narcotics that no one on Amoi touched, though that was because the patriarch of the house knew better then to tread too much on Iason's toes. That and Jupiter would personally kill the whole family if they stepped too far out of line.

They were one of the major backers when the doctor wanted to get his hands on him; however they quickly backed off and rescinded their opinions when the doctor tried the first time to take him by illegal means.

This clearly meant that they weren't really taking back what they said just that they were no longer vocal about it.

Searching the man's pockets he took the energy rifle strapped to the back and the reload packs strapping it to the belt he had also removed he quickly listened for any more noise, and heard the clear crackling of the nano radio implant every security guard had. He knew he only had a minute at the most to quickly find another place to hide seeing as they obviously had the place surrounded and had located his hiding spots. That meant he would have to find a new place or get out of the crater all together, however that was shot all to hell when he remembered that the first time he had tried he couldn't find the place he had calmed down from anymore, weeks later he found it was because a vicious rain storm had washed out the trial. He had looked for a new path out but after looking for 2 weeks he figured he would either travel the whole 50mile diameter or he would have to just wait it out and slowly dig his way out, he had started working on clearing the path he had taken but it wasn't finished so he was stuck here.

However like he said he wasn't going down without a fight even if it meant killing more men. They obviously had no morals if they were trying to take him for reasons unknown, looking trough the packs again he noticed they were all tranks, great at least they were only trying to capture him alive, not kill him. Which didn't make him feel any better, quickly grabbing the rest of the stuff he would need he made his way south while staying hidden in the forest, encountering only two more men on the way. Exposing them was easy due to the fact that they all thought that he was a weakling, a vision Iason and Riki decided he should portray. The entire time they were "practicing" Iason and Riki were giving him a rundown of basic self defense; however after they learned that he may not remember any of his past, but his body did they upped his training. It was just relearning everything and having it imprinted on his mind and not just his body.

His first kidnapping attempt was quickly shut up and they brought the perps to justice, although Naozumi quickly learned that he had no qualms about killing someone who was trying to hurt him. He knew that his training was complete one day when he brought his teacher down, even so he was constantly practicing, even here in the middle of nowhere, he practiced, and because he knew that even alone he knew someone or something might be watching he practiced in secret in one of his hiding spots one he built in the side of the mountain.

In fact it was the one he was making his way too right now, they may have known about the entrance but he bet they didn't know about the nifty little trick he pulled while inside his hide away.

When he reached his destination he took care of the guards surrounding the area and looked around before entering.

He knew he only had a few minutes' tops before more arrived, moving to the back wall of the small cave he dropped his back against once side of the short outcropping carved horizontally in the back pushing his legs against the other side he started to make his way to the top of the small cave. He said small because it was a thin and not very deep, but in reality it was about 20 feet high and had numerous other caves branching off from the original entrance. One day he was particularly board he counted in total about 20 different branches, not counting the one he was making his way up to.

Deciding to follow one he took the second one he came upon closer to the entrance, he took with him a basket of leaves to leave a trail, he ran out of leaves before he ran out of the cave system just off that one branch system. The cave system was massive, he pulled that trick three more times and each time ran out of leaves before finding the ends.

He was exploring again deciding which one he wanted to follow to the end when he heard a squeaking sound following the sound he found himself looking up at the end of the entrance cave, looking up he noticed a small creature making its way around the ledge 15 feet above his head. Taking a quick look at the wall in front of him he noticed that he could wedge himself between two outcroppings going diagonally up the wall. That day he found his hiding place in one of his hiding places.

When he reached the top he quickly took all of the supplies he had gathered from the fallen men, and pushed them ahead of himself. Crouching down on his back seeing as he couldn't lie on his belly he pushed his body through the small opening that even he barely fit through. Stopping every once in a while to listen for anybody in the cave, when he heard nothing he quickly tried to make up for lost time by scooting faster, after a minute and a half of stopping and scooting he reached the cavern that he had set up for such occasions as this, and just in time too because the as soon as he quieted after reaching the cavern he heard noise from the other end.

"Taman we know he came this way we found #'s 345 and 465 dead not too far away, we don't know if he stopped here because #'s 234, 764, 187, 098, and 654 were also taken out." The man was quite while he listened to the voice obviously ranting on the other end.

"No the commander didn't tell us he had a companion with him, he must have stayed hidden because when Ryan confronted him about it he said he didn't know anything about a companion." The voice was quite again but only for a short time.

"Yes Taman I'll have Keeve take care of the man before the day is through. Have you contacted the doctor about the problem?"

The silence was longer this time and when they finally spoke up it was further away but the acoustic in the caving system was amazing.

"Yes I know I am responsible for all contacts between the teams but I am not responsible for contact with outside sources that is your reasonability. Don't give me that he creeps the fuck out of me too no way in hell will I talk with him." Silence "fine than give it to one of the numbers there obviously not worth shit if a man can kill them by just breaking their fucking necks."

The man obviously forgot that all of the guns were loaded with ammo that dispersed as soon as touching skin because that was the only way to he was able to take them out, he distracted on while he took the other out then when the other noticed his comrade out he took out the last one. Taking no chance with them getting up he killed them without leaving a bloody mess for them to follow.

The conversation must have ended while he was lost in thought because the next sentence sent shivers through Naozumi's heart.

"The doctor said we were to all convene on this one cave system he has a detailed map of the area and system so it won't be hard to find the little shit, if he does have a companion shoot to kill we don't want to take any chances. Taien you stay here at the entrance and I'll go and start to gather the tags on the others, their jobs may have been numbers but they had information that the family doesn't want getting in the wrong hands. Gather all of the bodies and take them to that damn tree."

The last part was obviously said into his mic because he was making his way out of the cave and the last part was missed.

Making a quick decision Naozumi plugged the hole with some of the furs and cloth he had stored here to keep anyone from hearing what was going to happen. While he was searching through one of the men's pockets he came across a vidphone. Thinking quickly he opened the back and took the limiter chip off, it would cause him problems but he bet he could reach Iason quickly enough to get something trough before anyone tracked his location. The limiter chip prevented a phone from calling certain numbers and helped someone track the phone quicker, however only if the trackers had the limiters codes. If the person took the limiters off they could still track the phone but only if the person stayed on the phone for a certain amount of time.

With all of the tech they had now a days you would think that wouldn't be a problem but they still had to use satellites' to track so they had to find the satellite that the phone was using to project the call then track it to the tower then to the phone.

The tracking of the phone wasn't as quick as some would have liked but the upside was that a vidphone didn't have limitations on making calls in certain areas. One could call straight through a 20inch solid steel plated wall and get service as clear as day.

Personal trackers on the other hand didn't work on him; he knew this for a fact since the one Iason placed in him had stopped working the moment he woke up. He just never got the chance to tell Iason because he completely forgot about it until he was lost in the middle of nowhere.

It was too late then and Iason wouldn't know about it until he found Naozumi, which hopefully was soon because frankly the closer the creepy doctor got the more worried he got.

Standing and making his way to the back off the cave he restarted the phone only to almost scream in frustration when he realized the phone was pass code protected. Thinking quickly he took the limiter chip and took out one of the other vidphone he had collected, they were too cheap and not as reliable as the one he was trying to use, replacing the limiter chip in the other one he hacked the security and found the code he was looking for. With placing the limiter in a cheaper phone the security wasn't as good so it wasn't so hard to break through. The new phone was one he hadn't gotten any practice on, Riki had told him that he wasn't to tell Iason what he was teaching him, but when he got back to them he would have Riki teach him how to breach the higher levels of security on the newer vidphone.

Dialing the number he needed he waited for an answer, it seemed like a life time before Daryl the furniture answered the phone. When he realized who was on the other line he almost passed out in shock, collecting himself quickly after getting a look at the fear growing on the face he quickly called out to Master Iason who was not too far away, knowing that most vid calls were for him.

"MASTER IASON ITS NAOZUMI."

When Iason heard those words he ran the rest of the way, not noticing Riki who had heard Daryl's' voice and heard what had been said rushing toward the vid also.

When he got there he notices the look on his mates face and decided to let Naozumi speak, too bad Riki was less tactful and started to spew words of worry and anger. However he didn't get far as Iason put his hand over Riki's mouth and looked expectantly at Naozumi.

"Please you have to hurry, they are coming and that doctor he's on his way I'm in a large crater about 50 miles across, the trees are large so are the animals I know you will still be able to track the vocal when I am done so please hurry there already at the entrance of the cave I am hiding in. I am going to disable the vidphone seeing as it was one of the perps, the will also be tracking this call please hurry Iason I don't know how long it's going to take for them to find me. It's an extensive cave system. You know what words to use to notify me of your arrival."

Whit that he hung up the phone, the panic on his face now clear to Riki as they watched the man they loved quickly tell them all the details he could.

"Jupiter did you get that." Iason's cold voice broke Riki out of his horror at the thought of their little mate being so close to someone so dangerous.

Riki quickly ripped Iason's hand off of his face and made his way to the bedroom to get dressed; the public didn't need to see his fine ass body with no clothes on.

Iason watched Riki go as he listened for Jupiter's reply, he knew he could tie Riki to the bed but he would escape and come with him to gather Naozumi up no matter what, so rather than argue he contacted the head of his security and had them ready everyone.

"Yes Iason I know exactly where that is, Area 99 is notorious for its dangers, it's the area we were hoping he didn't end up in because the dangers there had wipe out all previous teams sent in to tame some of the beast there."

Her voice was full of anger at herself and worries for her son in law.

"We don't have time to point fingers at who to blame, the copter better be ready, Sid we are on our way up." Iason's voice grew commanding at the thought of finally finding his mate only to realize he was in danger and that he might not reach him on time.

"Sir we are ready."

"Riki lets move we have a mate to bring home."

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

As Naozumi disconnected the phone call he quickly smashed the phone after wrapping it in a piece of cloth the muffle the sound of the rock crushing the phone.

When he was done he quickly moved toward the back toward the entrance and moved a small section aside to try and hear what is going on.

"Sir we haven't found any evidence that he is in this vicinity other then the dead bodies, this isn't the only cave we found the bodies at but it is the only extensively large system. I know the doctor has maps of the place but I don't think the kid would have gone further than a few branch offs."

The conversations cut off as the man listened to voice on the other end.

"Doctor I have a bit of advice that will keep you alive shut your trap and let me do my job. The only reason you are even advising on this little trip was because you promised Lord Serena the child of Iason Mink as blackmail material. Now let me let you in on a little secret Lord Serena personally told me to bring the boy to him, not to you so as of right now you are of no use to us. Harboring you any longer will result in trouble for the House Serena however in honor of you many years of devotion to bringing our illustrious house many different gifts and years of service we will let you leave the immediate area and will give you two days to be out of the guest house you are currently occupying on our Lords property make sure to leave things the way there were. There will be someone by to remove you if you are not gone by then. Good day Doctor and do not let us hear from you again or you won't be able to leave this time."

The man's voice told Naozumi that he enjoyed telling the doctor off; his next sentence voiced his opinion.

"Man that felt good, it's a good thing the Elders decided to let him go or I was going to kill the little shit. He had used up his usefulness when started to go against Jupiter, no now that he left all of his notes to his assistant we will be able to carry on with the research he started without the massive attitude and slimy personality. That little intern of his was fun to break."

The cruel laughter let Naozumi know that if the men actually captured him he wouldn't be safe, they would break, or try to break him also. It was a good thing that left one of the cheap vidphones and recorded everything he had said.

As he set in the cave with only a small amount of cloth set aside he listened while the men started to search the cave system for him. It was an hour later, after much cussing, some traps he had set up going off and eliminating more of the problem, and a loud speech on how the leader was going to kill him if he didn't show himself. Not knowing that Naozumi knew exactly what his orders were and that Iason was on the way. After a half an hour he heard the distance noise of running feet and panicked voices.

"Sir we need to leave now. Iason Mink's forces are on their way and one of the lookouts spotted Mr. Minks personal copter."

Letting a small sigh of relief slip past his dry lips Naozumi minutely relaxed still trying to not give away his position in case it all went to hell. He had a back way out but he didn't think he fit anymore with how much his stomach had grown.

"Shit let's move people, MOVE MOVE, no Carlz don't set any explosives we could damage the boy and let that ass whole we were here. Just grab our shit and get back to the copter, we won't take off until they have reached their landing area we know they will land closer to the lake then we did so we can take off without being seen. MOVE IT MOVE IT MOVE IT"

The last move it was obviously said outside because it didn't echo like all of the other ones making his ears ring.

He waits another half an hour before he eased the cloth completely out of the way. He knew Iason's personal transportation was much better then anyon elses, but it might still be a trick to lure his out so he wasn't taking chances. He listened and started to inch his way back to the front of the cave when he heard voices that made his heart drop to his stomach.

"Naozumi Mink you get your ass out here his instant."

Riki's voice was like a balm to his battered lonely soul, making his way quicker he reached the front when he heard another voice that made tears come to his eyes.

"Naozumi please come out, you will not be punished." Iason's voice was strong and made him go a little faster than normal getting some scrapes in the processes and forgetting how far he had already gone, when he felt the edge of the cliff give way from behind his head he quickly stopped pushing with his feet and flipped over carefully.

Sitting up on his hand and knees he looked down at the two people his soul had been crying out for, for three months.

It was over, it was finally over he was going home.

When Iason heard a scrapping sound coming from 11 feet over his head after Riki had walked into the cave and called out, he looked up and called out again after no voice had answered Riki. When the scrapping sound got stronger and closer he knew he was looking in the right direction because soon a shining head of ebony came scooting over the edge of a small ledge above his head. His heart almost stopped when it did but it stopped in time and turned over to face them.

The face of their beloved little one was up high but when he gave a shout and jumped Iason moved faster than he ever thought possible catching his little one while Riki screamed in frightened anger at such a move. Gathering him in his arms Iason turned to Riki and gathered the angrily crying man.

My mates he thought, we are back together, at that moment it was all right.

Ok so I' am going to stop there, but I want to know if I should end the book right there and write a sequel, or if I should just continue the story and just keep updating with new chapters. I still have to deal with Guy, that mad doctor is still out there and there is another threat encroaching on our lover's happiness please vote the pole can be found on my profile.
