That's it. I can't let them get away with this. I'm going to follow them and get back what's rightfully mine!

I flung my coat over my cozy pyjamas and slipped on some warm boots as I shot out of the door and into the night. It was pitch black outside, the only light source being the starry night sky. It was a new moon today which means you can only see the faint silhouette of the moon. Definitely not a good time to chase a criminal down.

My eyes eventually got used to the darkness as I scanned the area for the Usami thief. Aha! I spotted them running down the path with my beloved plush. I started running after them but keeping to staying behind various bushes and cars to avoid being noticed. I got to the end of the road when the mystery person stopped and pulled out their phone and called someone. I was hiding behind a fence in someone's garden peeping over the top, I was close but not close enough to hear their voice or what they were saying.

Noticing a large rock big enough to give me a boost I stood atop it further leaning over in hopes I'd be able to hear their conversation. I still wasn't close enough! I edged further and further until I heard the fence creak as the panel came loose and fell off with me attached. I fell backwards into the bush I'd previously been hiding in but amongst the ruckus I'd created a large crashing noise drawing the mysterious thief to me. Oh well done Kaede, well done.

I shuffled deeper into the bush covering myself in any leaves or twigs. The footsteps of the very person I was supposed to be following crunched against the dry leaves and dewy grass. I couldn't see them well through the leaves but the one thing I could see was a pair of piercing blood red eyes staring down at me. I felt a shiver go down my spine but that wasn't the only thing I felt. In a the panic I hadn't noticed that the bush I was hiding in was in fact a prickly, spiky thorn bush. The thorns were digging into my fragile skin causing my eyes to well up with tears due to the pain and my legs to quiver. The blood red eyes flickered down onto the floor near the bush, I too imitating their actions drew my attention to the grassy floor noticing what they were looking at. A small trail of my blood. I looked at my arms and legs to witness the damage of the thorn bush. My legs dripping with blood as the tiny spikes of the bush pierced my pale skin. My arms were covered so it was just my hands with the prickly damage but I had been wearing pyjama shorts so my legs were bare, completely defenceless to the bushes wrath.

I looked to the red eyed figure who seemed delighted at the sight of fresh blood as they dipped a finger in the small pool of my pain and then licked it up savouring every last bit. They giggled in satisfaction then they're eyes shot back to me as they're hand came closer.

My body froze as I hoped for a miracle that would never be.

The hand came closer.

Closer.

...closer...

*Beep**Beep*

A stretch limo rolled up averting the figures attention. I took the opportunity to make a run for it but was stopped in my tracks as I felt a cold gloved hand wrap around my neck. Covering my mouth as I struggled trying to do everything I could to get away they picked me up and flung me over their shoulder like I was a rag doll. I tried to scream as tears overflowed blurring my vision.

I was carried over to a black limo with matching black out windows making it impossible to distinguish any faces or movement inside the vehicle. The driver's window slowly rolled down revealing an equally unidentifiable figure although, this one had green eyes. The two figures exchanged a knowing glance as my now captor handed over an object. Usami. The other nodded and snatched the plush toy from them, pointing a thumb to the back of the limo then the blackout window rolled back up as the figure disappeared behind it.
As I kicked and screamed, well attempted to, my captor strolled to the back of the limo and opened the boot. Gently I was placed inside and I watched helplessly as the boot was closed and everything went dark.

I kicked the top of the boot repeatedly screaming and crying. I wasn't tied up, which I'm guessing was because they weren't expecting me to follow them and that they'd have to kidnap me, then again I have no idea what they're up to do who knows maybe they meant to do this all along and I was stupid enough to fall for their plan.

Since my hands weren't tied I felt around the boot of the limo in hopes that there might be something I could use get out. I searched and searched and searched some more but only found the same thing which was nothing, the boot was barren. I was tired, unbelievable tired but I was desperate so kicked the boot more and slammed my hands on it. I tried ramming my body into the roof, anything I could think of. Eventually I was so tired I couldn't move. My legs were in agony, still bleeding from the thorn bush and my arms now ached covered in bruises from all the thrashing and banging. Other various parts of my body screamed from ramming myself against the boot door. My neck also ached from where it had been violently grabbed earlier by my kidnapper. I was tired and in immense pain.

....Maybe if I close me eyes for a bit it'll help.... I'm not going to sleep...just... resting my eyes... not for long though...no just awhile...
