Welcome to Gaia! ::

They looks at each other and nods,"We know just the one for you to use.....we think it reminds us of your skating." Everest says and looks for it on the list and finds the name Tower" and looks up at Yuki,"Yeah that was the one I made when I was being pushed around at school but with the friends I made and a mommy and daddy I found that the tower I tried to reach I finally made it hence the name Tower." she says and goes silent for a moment.

"Yuki are you ok? its alright to sing feelings even if they are bad....let me hear it." "Everest find the music I used....I want to sing live for mommy." Yuki says as Everest finds it and presses start, as the intro played Yuki adjusted her voice and looked to Senente but as she sang it felt like her surroundings changed to a snowing day in Skyline with a large lit tower in the background.....Yuki was feeling like she was in the song itself,

After the music stopped Yuki opened her eyes and was back in
reality seeing Everest and Senente watching as if they saw her lit up as her song went on but behind her Raiku was watching from the doorway,"Beautiful Yuki......you made something from your life into a song.....that was beautiful honey." he says picking her up and hugging her"And to think you used a unfamilier pitch of voice unable to be mastered by a normal person and created something new." he says thinking about it and as he heared her singing.....it was like he was seeing Yuki's tower in the city on a snowy night.

From its appearance it was seen but with her skating the shading of color wouldnt be seen as much so there wasnt much to worry about, Senente looks at it and thinks,"If I just wasnt so stubborn and went to recitals this wouldnt have happened." Raiku looks to her,"What happened in the past is the past now you just have to think of the present and go on.....isnt that right?" "Yeah I guess so.......its not too bad just a mark....not too bad at all." She sighs in reief and covers up in her bed feeling the drowsy side effect and Raiku kisses her firehead,"Night Sen....everything will be fine in the morning....a new day." he says before shutting the door going to his room the house grew quiet.


The wind was blowing quietly as it turned to midnight but on the island others were awake on a mission, "Are you sure this is the place that girl live?" "Sure I'm sure I see her with the ice skater all the time so this is the place dont tell me your backing down now....dont you want to avenge our friend." "I do but this is a bit extreme-" "Extreme?....extreme!! your an idiot that girl killed our friend and you want her to go around free what if your next hmm? then what...this is the best form of revenge." Three men dressed in black were lurking around the house but with a purpose.....they were the friends of the man from the park Yuki killed in her rage and with close eyes had watched her to find out where she lived and now they had her, carefully they climb up to her open window and looked around finding her asleep,"There she is those are the marks of the shadow we saw that night...this is her."


One of them hovers above her and as she woke up she saw something wasnt right and was about to scream but he covered her mouth scooping her out of her bed,"Quick! pin the note and lets go." the guy instructs and the other pins a note with a kunai written small,"This girls took our friend and we want revenge....the girl will suffer for our friend's death." and he too jumps out and they run through the trees as Yuki tries to see it was useless....she knew someone was taking her away. Soon Yuki was able to see she was off the island by the sounds and didnt have an idea where she was going till the sounds of Skyline came to her, being blind and unable to scream she used her hearing to know her enviorment.


Morning was coming in slowly acting as it was a normal day with Senente waking early and going downstairs starting the day, soon Raiku woke and got Everest up and around,"Hun go get your sister she cant sleep in like this all the time." Everest nods and goes in Yuki's room. "Yuki daddy says to get up.....Yuki?....dont you hear me?" she tugs on the covers and sees Yuki's bed empty but thinks,"Shes probably up with mommy already silly daddy thinking she was asleep." Everest thought on it thinking it was funny till she turned to see Yuki's headband pinned with a kunai along with a note and dropped her doll on the ground, she knew Yuki would always put it on before coming down yet there she was seeing it and Yuki not in sight,"Mommy! Daddy!" she screams as loud as she could.

Everest was looking at the commotion trying to see what was wrong but her mind was in a fog,"Daddy whats wrong is Yuki hiding?" he looks down at her as Senente started to cry harder as he tried to comfort her,"Um Everest honey why dont you go downstairs and get the phone....mommy needs some time." she wipes her tears and runs down while he looks at Senente with Yuki's headband covering her face.


"Rai.....why....why would they take our little girl from us, what use is it to them for taking a child for something in the past its...its..." "Sen please....we knew there were some out there that have sick ways of grudges....even if its a little girl." Senente cried some more as Everest cam up with the phone,"I'm calling Kakashi to tell them Yuki has been kidnapped and most likely the people are in Skyline......we'll get her back." Senente looks up,"I...I just dont want her harmed...shes already been through a lot already.....I want her home."

Raiku goes out to the hall and dials talking for a few minutes and retuning back inside, Senente looked down and found Yuki's Naruto doll by the window and hugged it close while he rubbed her shoulder,"We'll get her back.....we'll get our baby girl home."
__________________________________________

Yuki looks around blindly and hears conversation with the men and feels the cloth untie showing her them, she looks terrified as she tried to break free but her hands were bound and her knees as well. "So your the little demon who killed our friend....funny you look like an innocent little girl but yet you have the heart of a killer." she looks up to one of the men knelt down to her level mocking her.


Yuki's mouth wasnt covered but it was fear that was keeping her silent. "Not talking huh? well I know you'll perk up when pain is involed...guys gather around.......lets savior the touture together and give our buddy peace. The one in the middle took out what looked like a large needle and traced along her arm up to her face slicing her cheek and she flinches. "Aww did that hurt well say that to our friend you killed....he screamed for his life and you ended it." he jabs it into her arm as she cries out as he continued to the other hurting her as much as he could, the man on the other side however wasnt enjoying it like the other two were laughing as she cried which made him think this was going to far.

They poke at her for a few minures till the middle man said stop,"I think for now she needs to feel what shes feeling now for awhile then later we'll have other things for her." he says as they left her in the room alone shivering scared tears in her eyes,"Mommy......daddy.....I want to be home...." she tries to tear out of her bindings but as she pulled it rubbed into her skin leaving blisters and soon gave it up.....all that was in her mind was that she wasnt at home and in an unfamilier enviorment.

Raiku was trying several things to get Senente out but any attempt he tried failed,"Sen please i told you many times....Yuki will be found I promise we all promise but greiving for her isnt going to make things right hun." "Then why isnt she here......why dont I feel her ponytail through my fingers and her hands clutching onto my vest telling me she loves me Raiku! tell me why!" she screams at him backing away almost attempting defeat but he wasnt going to go down so easily and come up to her grabbing her arm.

"Let me go dammit! I said i'm not leaving! let go!" Raiku kept pilling "Dammit Senente your being too stubborn now come out so this can ease you slightly.....crying wont solve anything now your just dealing with guilt, stop acting like a child!" just as Senente heared that she turns swinging her and a loud slap was heared.....she had actually hit Raiku knocking him to the ground but the looks on her face wasnt saddness that she hit him but inside she was sad with her pain and guilt and lays back down on Yuki's bed."

Raiku gets up rubbing his face and says nothing.....he knew that she was feeling pain and it was turned to anger as he tried to get her out, slowly he came up to touch her back,"Sen I know but dont worry....we'll-" "Just....dont....touch me.....let me be I want to be alone."
_____________________________________

Four days passed with no updates as Naruto and the squad searched the city hoping to find a lead but turn cold at each turn, back at the house everyone was quiet with the normal activity noises silenced to nothing, Raiku was in the livingroom with Everest watching her play but the sense was different without two little girls chasing each other but the scene wasnt around.

Upstairs Senente stayed in Yuki's room the whole time eating whatever Raiku brought up but she remained on her bed looking at Yuki's headband tracing the moon with her finger,"Yuki honey.....I shouldnt have been so strict...now.....this happens." The phone ring and Raiku answer with Sakura on the other line,"Raiku we think were getting close we found Yuki's barrette in an alley so we know she's here in skyline.....I think we might be getting close." Raiku couldnt believe it and talks for a moment then hangs up,"I can tell Sen, but with her like this I-"

Just as he sits back down it rings again with him thinking it was them with more info but the voice was strange to him,"I wish to speak with the ice skater Senente." "She's not in any condition to talk right now but I can give a message." "I think she'll want to hear this.....its urgent." annoyed from him Raiku climb the stares and puts it on speaker for her to hear,"This is Senente what do you need sir." a raspy laugh lingers on the speaker spooking both of them,"Well its been four days hasnt it....since your girl was taken and its such a pity....however I think I might have some information for you that you might want to listen close." it goes silent for a minute as Senente goes close to Raiku thinking she was going to find out where Yuki was and hears something.

It was hard to tell but soon a familier voice was heared that shocked both of them,"Mommy, daddy......help me please....the men wont let me go without peace......they said if daddy or mommy doesnt come with a plea they'll-" Senente shouts,"Yuki, Yuki honey what will they do are you hurt did they touch you?.. where are you....Yuki....Yuki!" the phone goes silent.

The rink acted normal but the intensity was high as everyone were on their toes awaiting any people those purpose wasnt just for the skating, Raiku was outside while Kakasi and his squad were disguised as fans in the crowd taking watch buzzing in time to time. A hour goes by and Raiku catches a glimpse of a man walking around taking glances at Senente as he passes and goes in,"Sen listen theres a guy with his hair in a ponytail, black...and wearing a black winter coat....he keeps glancing over your direction."

"On it I'll watch him." she responds acting as nothing is going on till after a few more people she feels unsecure as the man approaches her and she tries to act calm as he talks. "I'm surprised your able to go on with all thats happening....your daughter was taken no?....its such a tragedy." "Yes it was.....been almost a week and I'm hoping she returns safe." "Safe is the hopeful word but with it so long....it might be slim." at that point Senente knew she had her suspect and had to pull something off to get him close,"I could really use a hug in a crisis like this....could you?"

The man laughs acting as innocent as he can get and hugs her but as he did she clipped the tracker on the tail of his jacket quick,"Thanks I really need help at this time and that was comforting." "Not at all....I hope your daughter comes back soon truely." and he leaves. Soon it got dark and the group came back together,"Ok I caught our ponytail man and hes bugged...now what?" "We'll check it on a computer and find the signal.....right about.....now." Kakashi checks and finds it close heading to a few buildings out near the pier warehouses.....they were getting close.
__________________________________
At the pier the man returns at if he had gotten a victory,"That skater sure is taking it well.....almost I bet inside she is dead without her little girl speaking of her where is that little fox." he looks around following a metal chain that had snapped and looks angry keeping quiet, soon he find a loose end. "You think you can hide from me that easily?....not a chance come here." he yanks hard dragging Yuki out of hiding nearly choking her with the collar they put on her treating her as if she was a fox, his anger grew unsatisfied and drags her out to a room and chains her up.

Yuki's body was barely reconizeable as it was covered by several bruises,burns, and scratches incliding multiple kunai wounds one slicing her arm bad enough she couldnt move it. She knew that pleading to be let go or even talking would mean they would only hurt her again unsatisfied with their revenge and use her to stab and hit using anything to make her cry in pain, in Yuki's eyes she cried out to be found yet they were dull red almost thinking of accepting she was trapped forever.

Knowing there was a chance yuki's parents would come and help had it set up just to trap Senente clear, he looks at her as another ties her hands,"Well well well....thought this day would never come again...such a pity it had to be seen through a body transfer....yeah I knew these guys wanted revenge till I came along.....can anything else go well?" he turns nodding his head to the third man to drag Yuki off out of Senente's view,"No stop! dont touch her anymore you already hurt her enough please no more."

"Dont be stupid didnt you read....she's going to suffer for what she did and as for you....you were in the wrong place at the wrong time sweetie." her radio goes off with Raiku calling for her but she couldnt answer and it kept going, the man hoisted her up against a wall and sat her down close to where the other took Yuki and just smiled,"You should have raise such a killer...dont you know how to tach her better then that but no.....you let her kill one of us because you couldnt keep her on her leash...well....we took care of that."


Raiku hears nothing but static and panics,"She and Sakura must've been caught guys search." the rest follow the command and go in separate places and wait to find one of the men and ambush. One looks up and sees Raiku and shouts out,"Dude theres more its a set up!" The ponytail one looks and leaves Senente and Sakura peeking into the other side,"You! finish her off now we have company!" and takes off to help but is hit by Saskue in the back landing into the wall. Soon after Naruto comes from the ceiling and it was three against two as they fight off the other deflecting every swipe with the kunai while taking hits, soon after Raiku gets caught from behind and flings him off his shoulders slamming him to the ground and eyes the main one,"Over there...head south!"


The guy gets away for a moment but is attack from behind with Kakashi pinning him from behind and Raiku in front of him. "You!....you took my daughter and treat her like an animal beating her....I wont let you go for this you will pay for Yuki's pain." he yells striking him in the head knocking him out cold as he fell to the ground out of Kakashi's grasp,"Serves him right...tourturing a child...very low for even a man." Kakashi says looking at Raiku but a scream pierces their ears and take off picking up the other boys heading to Senente and Sakura. Raiku goes up and unties them looking to Senente,"Sen! did he hurt you are you alright?" she nods and he hugs him but stops pointing to the room Yuki got dragged in and hears a loud scream and Senente panics.


"Stop it!....dont hurt her you'll kill her! Raiku stop him." he looks and sees the third man flee off and along with Saskuke persues him as Naruto call Yuki's name but as he looks to what he saw he backed in terror and looked at Senente and nodding to Sakura to hold her down,"Naruto whats wrong what did they do to Yuki?....Naruto" she feels Sakura restain her,"No stop let me go I want my daughter let me see her please....stop." she fights to get free but gets pinned as Naruto goes in and sees Yuki's body limp on the ground, her arm was barely on being cut more, the chain still on while in her back was a kunai. He had no idea what to do but try to pull the kunai out but it could cause more damage,"Yuki?...please...please no...dont be dead....please." he carefully goes around her neck unlatching the chain from the collar feeling her body almost cold and tears formed in his eyes. "Why...why to a little girl she didnt deserve this...Yuki please you got to hang on for your parents." he can hear Senente cry out soon after the others find Naruto and were shocked at the scene causing Senente to scream louder.

As Yuki slept she had no idea she was actually no longer in danger but safe at home away from the men who took her from the others and beat her,"Why?.....I never knew people would treat someone like me a kid like I was an animal." she pictured the long painful days of her being tourtured and beaten and she could do nothing but let them have at it thinking she wasnt going to be save but when she heared Senente yell for her back it felt like a ray of light was in her eyes but the cowards try to finish her off."

Yuki turned in the bed awaking Everest and seeing it was Yuki she was happy to see her and hugged her close. As she touched her face both their moons glowed lightly with like what Yuki did to Senente's dream Everest was doing the same calming her. In her dream Yuki was being choked by the collar as the man pulled but Everest was behind him and bit into his leg making him let go.

"You little brat now your through" he goes for a punch but Everest's eyes glow gold as she is shrouded in an energy orb reflecting his blow and bouncing back. There she grabbed Yuki's hand and kept her close,"Sister....he wont hurt you anymore....I wont let him." Yuki falls asleep relieved she was fine and it goes back to reality, the sun rose into the window as the two girls were huddled together with Everest waking up and getting around, she looks to Yuki still asleep and smiles leaving. A hour goes by and yuki wakes but her mind was different having had to deal with days of misery being hurt and having been chained like a fox even with a collar, physically her body was still recovering but in her mind the damage was more severe almost thinking like she could never leave the house thinking something would come after her. "Yuki?....are you awake? its daddy honey i'm coming in." Raiku comes in and sees her sitting up but looks at her face she was in another place" "These past few days were nothing but torture for her.....she'll need some time." cautiously he picked her up and took her downstairs trying to talk to her but she stayed quiet.

She went on to finish but feels Raiku's hand take her wrist and turn her around,"Sen stop, you cant hide things from me and if you want me to help you then you need to cooperate and please....tell me whats on your mind." he lets go getting her attention...she knew there was no turning back. "Its just that......last night was a nightmare and with so many out there to get me I worry if things could get any worse....I dont want anything else to go wrong again." Raiku sighs and thinks of something comforting but it was tough then what happened in the fantasy with Cyrus came back to him.


Thinking of the events he saw what power Yuki showed that she never even mastered in the past and even sealing a power greater then herself into a gem, the intensity then was so much coming from her it was off the charts and shakes his head looking at Senente,"Sen remember what happened in the fantasy.....Yuki, she used skills we never saw her do before true it was all in a dream but what if she realized it....and you as well with your spirit including hers you can work together to beat anything just think if it." She sighs,"But looks at her now....she wont even look at me or speak, how can she help defend against the enemy."


"Dont you worry its not like they'll attack the next day....with some time she'll snap out of it and possibly find her inner strength to fight off the ones." With that scrap of positive hope Senente sighed happy and hugged Raiku....finally something was going to go alright and everything would be fine just for now, "Well I better finish....Yuki can come in if she wants but by the look on her face it night not be for awhile I dont blame her......she had a nightmare for many days so its not like she'll get normal in a day." he nods and helps in the kitchen getting things around.
