For those who loved that fic with BeriKyuu and the unexpected TakaGaki at the end, here is the second sequel to that fic.
Kidnapped (sequel 2)
A week has passed since we were kidnapped. Me, Chisato, Airi and Kanna were spending the afternoon in Sweet Palace de Chinami. It’s an ice cream parlor owned by Chinami’s parents. Maybe that is why Chinami doesn’t want too many sweets, since she already had too many here.
“Ahh~ what can we do today?” I asked taking Chisato’s hand, tracing the lines on it with my finger.
“Momo, stop that. You know I’m ticklish.” Chisato whispered in my ear making me giggle – my cheeks starting to take the shade of pink.
“Could you two stop flirting? It makes me wanna puke.” Kanna interrupted as she looked at us with her arm around Airi’s neck.
Airi slapped Kanna’s hand away from her as she then glared at her, “You should be the one to shut up. Stopping them flirting with each other just because I stopped you flirting with Maiha.”
Kanna looked surprised at Airi since she hasn’t heard her talk like that. Well, me too. “I wasn’t flirting! I was just asking something.” Kanna explained, having an apologetic look on her face.
Airi just looked away, ignoring Kanna’s explanation as Kanna tried to hold her hand, but failed the attempt as Airi slapped her hand once again. Chisato laughed at Kanna, pulling me closer to her as I gave her a peck on the cheek. After a few minutes of attending on our own needs and conversations, Chinami pulled a chair to our table and sat between Airi and me.
“So, have you guys thought of what to do this afternoon?” Chinami asked as she put her pastry hat on the table.
I looked at her with a smile, pulling out a little from Chisato’s hug, “We haven’t even discussed about it. Kanna was busy apologizing to Airi.”
Chinami looked at the couple beside her confused on why Kanna was apologizing to Airi. Chisato leaned forward, motioning for Chinami to do the same as she whispered the answer to Chinami’s unasked question. Chinami’s eyes grew wide as she nodded slowly, looking back at Airi and Kanna.
“Ah! Maybe that is why Maasa was mumbling things to herself earlier and was gripping the ice cream cone tightly that she crushed the cone.” Chinami let out a small laugh as Kanna turned her gaze at her looking a little scared.
“Ma-Maasa is not here right?” Kanna stuttered as she asked if the strong-undefeatable Maasa was there.
Chinami just smiled at her, not really answering the question as Airi started laughing. Both Chisato and me joined Airi’s laughter and a little while, Chinami too joined in. Kanna on the other hand had a frightened look as she sulked on her chair. I was laughing for a while as a few men in tuxedos came in, scanning the place as one of them glued his gaze at us. I finally noticed the man as he started to walk towards us.
“I’ll go back to the kitchen now. My mom’s calling for me.” She whispered in my ear, as she then stood up and walked her way to the kitchen. Chisato tapped my shoulder, as I was not responding to her call. Seeing I was still not responding, she followed my gaze and looked at the man walking towards our table. Airi was poking Kanna for fun as Kanna stayed sulking on her chair.
I gulped as the man stopped on our table, scanning our faces as he then snapped his fingers. It made me jump a little, waking me up from my thoughts as the other two in black stood behind him.
“Yes?” I asked in a whisper. I didn’t know if he heard it but their presence gave me a feeling of fright inside that I can’t speak.
“Are you a member of the House of TakaGaki?” He asked in a low voice, taking his shades off and placed it in one of his pockets.
I looked at Chisato as she was the one who answered, “So what if we are?”
The man moved his head as the other two men behind him walked around our table, positioning themselves behind Airi and me. “Then, we ask for your cooperation. Our boss wants us to get suitable members for ransom.” He started as he once again scanned the four of us.
Kanna shook her head and looked at the man, “So you mean you guys will kidnap us and have us for ransom?”
Airi took Kanna’s arm, clinging to her as the man beside her got closer. “Kanna.. He’s getting closer.”
Kanna looked at Airi, wrapping her arm around her as she then looked at the man beside Airi, “Dude! Don’t you dare come nearer?”
I stared at the man in front of me as I felt a slight grip on my hand. I looked down and followed the arm until I saw Chisato worried face. I couldn’t help but to give out a small smile just to assure her nothing will happen to the four of us. I looked back at the man as he started to talk again.
“You either come with us without any resistance or we’ll force all of you to come.” He stated as he looked at the two other men, signaling to get themselves ready if something happens.
I looked at Chisato then at Kanna and Airi, nodding slightly as they knew what I was trying to tell them. We knew two things to do when stuck in this kind of situation - fight or run. In this case, we could only run. Chisato looked at Kanna and with a nod; they started to count in their heads. 1…2...3!
At the count of three, Kanna and Chisato pushed the man in front and pulled Airi and me out of the place. We started to run towards the park, a few blocks away from the place. I looked back and saw one of them gaining at us. I started to force my short legs to the extent of which it can run. As we arrived at the park, Airi slowed down as she couldn’t run any longer. Kanna tried to pull her but Airi was really at her limit.
We stopped as I tend to Airi’s needs, taking a bottle of water from my small bag, as Chisato and Kanna stood on guard. “Airi, drink some water. This will help you regain strength.” I told Airi as I handed her the water bottle.
Airi drank the water and was about to finish half of it when Chisato spoke, “Here they come.”
I looked at the direction where both Kanna and Chisato were staring as I held Airi near. If we run now, we can go straight to HQ, but in Airi’s condition, we can’t. I looked at Airi who was still catching some air and decided we can’t continue to run now.
“Momo, is Airi now okay?” Kanna asked as she balled her fist, watching the men come closer. “Can we run, now?”
I shook my head as I held Airi in my arms, “No, she still can’t run. She’s still weak from running that fast earlier.”
Kanna gritted her teeth as Chisato took position near her, “Then we need to fight.” Chisato sighed as she looked at Kanna.
The men came closer and closer, taking something from their pockets. It looked like small knives as it sparkled at the sun’s light but we weren’t sure. Kanna was about to run towards the men when Chisato took her arm – stopping her. The men stopped a meter away from our front line as they gripped the knives in their hands.
“Get ready Kanna.” Chisato told Kanna who was standing beside her. They observed the situation and they found a way to take the men down. “Chisato… on my go, we charge.” Chisato nodded without taking her gaze off the men. “Chisato, be careful!” I whispered.
I could see them getting ready and Kanna opening her mouth, and in the instant I knew they would charge, a powerful battle cry suddenly emerged out of nowhere. Airi and I cling to each other tightly as we got frightened. Chisato and Kanna were surprised and they stepped back.
Coming out of nowhere, the three men suddenly fell forward as if they were attacked from behind. I looked up from Airi to look at what happened and saw the fearsome leader and captain in their battle formation.
“Oi! Chisato! Kanna! Take Momo and Airi to the HQ. We’ll take care of this!”Maimi yelled as the three men stood up. I quickly understood and helped Airi up. I didn’t let go of her. She’s still too weak to run as fast as we did earlier, so in the end, Kanna carried Airi on her back and we rushed at HQ.
***Meanwhile at the park***
I glanced at the Kanna and Chisato led Momo and Airi away and to safety. When they were nowhere in sight, I looked at the men in front of us and called out to my partner, well, my love as I call her. “My love, are you ready?” I said in a serious tone and was preparing myself when I fell on my side. “D-don’t call me that!” The girl beside me shouted at me. This is why I always tease her. I just couldn’t wait for our designated time to be truly lovers. I’m actually wooing her mother for Saki’s hand.
Before I could get up, I felt a tug on my shirt and a pinch on my arm. “Mou! Don’t you space out on me! When you do that, you always think of unwanted things!” She lectured which made me further want to tease her, but looking back at the irritated men in tuxes, I knew this was not the time. I stood up quickly and stepped beside Saki. “Seriously now, are you ready, Saki?” I asked her as I could see at the side she was already going into battle position. “I’m always ready.” She answered and it excited me.
“You two! You’ll pay for the loss of those members of the House of TakaGaki for the successful ransom plan.” The man in the middle yelled as he picked up the knife on the ground. “We are here to protect each other!” Saki answered and the men’s faces lightened. It made us back up a step. Why were they snickering? I asked myself and slowly they walked towards us. “What should we do?” Saki asked but I couldn’t answer. I knew at this time, we need to fight.
“Hiyaaaah!” A voice boomed from behind us and instantly, a shadow from the top of us caught our attention. The three figures came down and directly hit the three men separately with their flying kick. “That’s what you get when you underestimate the power of team work of the House of TakaGaki!” The girl in the middle shouted before the three looked at us. “You two are bad! You left us back at my parent’s ice cream parlor without telling us! You two don’t want to share the fun of beating these guys!” The one of the right exclaimed.
“Chii, Maasa and Maiha! Behind you!” I suddenly screamed and started sprinting towards them. Saki was not behind me but beside me, I guess she read my thoughts. That’s also one thing I like about her. In an instant, it was our turn to bring these three down. With a proper distance, we jumped as high as we could and showed them our own flying kick.
The three men fell backwards and we celebrated with our newly arrived friends. We never thought one of the men had called for help and in a few minutes, two black cars arrived and we were surrounded with 11 men with the three we were previously bullying.
We didn’t know what to do and we fought with all our might. We were able to take down half but they were still too many. We were getting too exhausted. “You five will be more than enough for the ransom.” The leader of the men in tux commented before holding his knife again. I whispered near Saki’s ear to take Maiha and run. She refused. “Saki! Do it! Take Maiha and run towards HQ! Then get reinforcements!” She looked at me and I knew she was mad, but I knew she understood. “But! I don’t want to leave you!” She answered. It made me happy but this is not the time to think of such things. She does care for me!
“Come one Saki! You have only one chance!” Chinami continued, supporting Maimi’s plan. “I’ll leave Maiha in your care, Captain.” Maasa also said but Maiha was like Saki, she didn’t want to leave her precious Maasa. “No! We’ll fight with you!” Maiha answered and cling to Maasa. Maasa on the other hand took her hand and kissed it. “I’ll come back, I promise.” With that, Saki took Maiha’s hand and when we gave them the signal, they ran and we were left, dealing with these men.
***Two hours has passed***
Two hours has passed and I knew, Saki was already mad at me. I can’t help but to feel sorry for her and event to Maiha. We got caught and now, the three of us are on our way to god knows where.
“Maimi…” Chinami whispered and I looked at her. “The others would know that we are kidnapped, right?” I looked down for a little while before looking at both Chinami and Maasa. “Yes… I know, they’re looking for us right now.” I answered, assuring we will be saved soon.
Looking out the window, one of the men finally called our attention. “We’re here.” He plainly said before the car stopped inside a compound where there was no way anyone from the outside could penetrate. The men in tux led us to one of the rooms and made us sit down.
We were unaware of what was in front of us, for the whole room was dark and only a spotlight on our spot shined. Having a glimpse of the dark room and the unknown in front of me, I remembered when we were first abducted a week ago by the fearsome TakaGaki. We thought we were really done for that time but in the end, they just wanted us to join their clan or family. When I learned that back then, all I could say was, they could just have asked. They didn’t need to drag us there and watch their scene. Well, I enjoyed it anyway and I had a wonderful day dream about it and how good I and Captain were doing it.
My thoughts were interrupted when sudden bursts of moans came out in front of us. I could understand kissing but this… I’m not ready for it yet. “Stop it! Stop it! Let me out! I can’t stand this!” Chinami suddenly panicked and went straight to the door and tried to open it but it was closed. The men in tux that were left with us forced her back to her seat.
The intensity of the unwanted noises got higher, to the extent we knew, they were finished. After a few more minutes of silence, two figures came out of the shadows and smiled mischievously at us.
“I guess you came at a very interesting time.” The one on the left said as she pulled up her leather gloves from her pocket. “They did, and I think it bothered them.” The other said as she sat on the chair in front of us.
We couldn’t believe who the culprits of this scam were. Our jaws were down and we were speechless. “Oh look Reina, they went speechless.” The one standing commented before sitting on the other’s lap. “Then, we need to treat them good for them to be eligible for ransom.” She smirked before caressing the other’s cheek. “Isn’t that right, Eri?”
We can’t believe what is happening to us… Now thinking about it, we are once again… kidnapped. Saki! Hurry up! I… I need you to save me!
