CHAPTER FIVE

"You sure this is the place? It looks like a plain factoring company; it doesn't even close to being evil."

"Yes I'm sure. I escaped from it." Seethed Ikuto, giving Kukai the death glare.

Kukai put his hands up as a sign of surrender as he shrunk back more into his hiding spot. "Ok ok, got it. Just making sure. Never know, you could've been drugged or something and you…could've…been…never mind, I'm just going to stop talking now."

"Good choice." Ikuto nodded then looked back at the building. It was a factoring company, but a factoring company with two agendas instead of one. One; to take over the world using the factories they had all over the world-two; to take over the world by controlling people's minds and using Amu's powers against them. Ikuto sighed. He couldn't believe he let this happen to her. He had promised himself that he'd NEVER let Easter, or anyone like them, get their grubby hands on Amu, and now look-he did just that. Ikuto felt a hand on his shoulder and looked up to see Tadase giving him those deer, girly eyes that could just make anyone second guess themselves, or go droopy themselves. "Don't worry Ikuto; we're going to get her back. No matter what. I promise. I know I have lost to you for her heart, but I still have feelings for her, so even if you don't go in there, I will." Ikuto stared at Tadase dumfounded. He'd never heard the kiddy king talk like that before, or at least not to him directly.

He shook his head mentally and his eyes narrowed, "I'm going to save Amu no matter what. Nothing will stop me from doing that. Now are you guys ready for the biggest fight you have ever had? Because if you're not, or if you even doubt, you don't belong here."

They all looked at each other, exchanging glances and within those glances, hidden words, and when they looked back at Ikuto, they had fire in their eyes. A fire that, so long as Ikuto has known them, he had never seen. It was a fire that wanted blood for taking their best friend away; for putting her, and them, through tremendous pain and possibly suffering, and Ikuto liked it. "We're in!" They all said in unison.

Ikuto smiled and nodded. "All right. Yoru!" Ikuto called forth his guardian character, and when the little blue kitten appeared in front of his face surprisingly he nearly strangled him. "I'm here Ikuto, nya~."

"Ok, Yoru, I want you and the other guardians to do a perimeter search and come back to us if you think you found a place where we could sneak in." Ikuto instructed as the other guardian characters showed up behind Yoru, floating and nodding as they received their orders.

Once the orders were given, they all gave a salute, "Roger!" They cheered, and flew off to go look around. Ikuto looked at the others. "Ok, now while they do that, we need to figure up a plan." Those words felt foreign to Ikuto; he never worked with others like this, and he didn't know how it worked. He looked to Tadase for some help, and he quickly accepted, and then, they were well entranced by Tadase's words.

When the guardian characters came back, they were all ready; they each knew what their jobs were in the plan, and they each knew the plan. "Ok, there is a back entrance that has no guards. We should be able to enter through there." Relayed Kiseki as the characters went to their respective guardian, except for Ran, Miki, and Su, who were more worried then ever. They could feel something bad was happening-something terrible was happening to Amu, and they could feel it.

Ikuto took another look around to make sure that no guards were coming there way. "Ok, I'm going to need you guys," he pointed at the characters, "to stay here and guard the entrance. We need eyes and ears outside, and here," he handed Yoru a small walky-talky, "Tell us if there's any danger coming our way." All the characters nodded and saluted once again before flying off again. Ikuto looked at the others and pulled his black jacket on further, "Ready?" they nodded, "Alright, let's go." They all ran for the back door as quietly and inconspicuously as possible, and when they reached the door, Ikuto quickly picked the lock and they stood there for a few seconds, making sure no alarms went off, before charging in and looking for Amu. Everyone having the same thought going through their heads made their charisma go up ten fold. We're coming Amu!

Amu was awoken by loud banging at her door. Now what? As she started to get up, the door swung open, revealing Senji with Juke on his shoulder and two big guys with black suits and black sunglasses-probably body guards. I don't get why they wear their sunglasses inside. It just looks dumb. "What do you want?" Amu seethed, crossing her arms over her chest, trying to suppress the shiver that went up her body, remembering the horrific memory of the last time he saw him.

Senji smiled and let the guards in before leaning against the doorway, crossing his arms as well. "Oh, c'mon Amu, you know you love me. Don't you remember how much you loved my company last time?" He saw Amu's eyes go wide, and he laughed, "Oh, don't worry; I don't have time for that today."

Amu pressed her arms closer to her chest, "Then what do you want?"

"You're being moved. We've got a few things we need you to do. So if you don't mind, we'd like you to come with us." Senji stood up straight and his joking had completely gone out the tiny, un-seeable, window.

Amu took a step back and put her arms to her side, ready to fight if she needed to. She had to get away from this place. "Wha-what do you mean by 'move'? And things? Like tests? Well sorry, I'm not doing any tests." Amu took another step back. She couldn't help the little stutter that came out when she spoke. She was cold, hungry, and just plain tired-tired of everything. Why weren't her friends trying to save her? Why weren't they here? Hasn't been a few days? Shouldn't they be looking for her? You're friends will never come. They don't love you. They never have. They just pitied you because you looked so pathetic alone all the time.

No! Shut up! That's not true!

Oh, but it is, and you know it. True friends wouldn't have let what happen to you actually happen. You've been betrayed Amu. Just admit it.

N-no. That's-that's not true. They-they just didn't-

Didn't what? Didn't know? Of course they did! They let it happen! They didn't care about you anymore! They got tired of you! Admit it! Why else would you still be here! If they truly were your friends, they would have saved you by now!

You're-you're right. If they truly were my friends, I wouldn't be here right now.

"You know Amu, if you don't resist, we can protect you from anything. Make sure nothing happens to you. These tests, they're just going to test your knowledge and where your trust lies. If you stay with us, we can protect you from those so-called-friends of yours. They're the ones who left you here." Amu looked up at Senji and into his aquamarine eyes. She never noticed how much you could get lost in those eyes. She felt like she could trust him, even after what happened between them. Maybe-maybe it was for my own good? Maybe it was so I could learn how much I could trust him, and not my so called friends.

Amu nodded, "Alright, I'm ready."
