SailorStar9: After getting Chapter 27 out, this is Chapter 28 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review other than just simply putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot and pairing.

Chapter 28: All Of You, I'll Slit Your Throats While You Sleep

"Tamamo was caught by the Illuminati." Mike continued his narration. "The 'Life-Taking Stone' had lost its power. Because Tamamo had it, the Nine-Tails was resurrected again. And the resurrection of the Nine-Tails seemed to be convenient for them. The Illuminati had promised to protect Izumo , but they did not keep their promise. In order to get their hands on the Nine-Tails' power, they inflicted Tamamo with pain and suffering worse than death. Their cruelty was far beyond imagination. Izumo and Tsukumo were kept as Tamamo's substitutes in case she'd become unstable. This is all I know."

"In summary, Kamiki was abducted by the Illuminati to replace her mother?" Suguro breathed. "The truth is somehow hard to believe."

"We have to hurry." Shiemi insisted.

"The Illuminati laboratory you talked about earlier," Yukio voiced. "Do you know it's location?"

"They're occupying the undergrounds of this land." Mike replied.

"Underground?" Suguro echoed. "Then where is the entrance?"

"I don't know, but there is a suspicious place." Mike answered. "I will guide you there."

"All right, is this painstaking conversation over already?" Rin cut in.

"Nii-san, don't tell you you weren't listening to anything we said?" Yukio asked.

"I was listening, more or less." Rin corrected. "So we need to save both of them and bring them back, right? Let's go and search for the entrance to this underground laboratory."

I've said everything that I can. Mike mused. But the whole story is even crueler. On the tenth day of being held captive, Izumo woke up and found Tsukumo gone. Yoshida Maria had betrayed her organization by giving Tsukumo up for adoption. When Gedōin Micheal found out, he had Yoshida captured and forcefully injected her with a new drug that resulted from Tamamo's experiments.
