Time As Always Time Chapter 17   “She would have to know sooner or later. I mean she is old enough to know about things like this,” Yamato said he pressed his forehead with his fingers in thought. He stood up and picked the letter up again, “This is defiantly bullshit.”   “How do you know, Taichi has changed from since he was a teenager, he’s a grown man. Why wouldn’t he change his mind about me, I’m just the first girl he slept with and got pregnant and we’ve been together ever since. So he has a right to change his mind… I trapped him into marriage,” she replied quietly she stared out into space, then slowly took a seat at the kitchen table.   “I said bullshit, Sora,” Yamato replied annoyed at her negativity.   “Mom, have you seen daddy? I want him to help me with my project for school.” Sora turned around and looked at her son he was holding a piece of paper, she reached over and took the paper from him.   She gave a look on the paper then to Li, “Honey, daddy is gone for a bit he won’t be coming back okay, but you can ask grandpa to help you with that. I’m sure he won’t disagree,” she handed her son back the paper.   He looked at his mother confused, “Why is he gone? Where did he go?” he questioned.   Sora looked a way, hoping that she wouldn’t cry in front of her son who was very concerned with the fact of why Taichi was gone and when he would come back.   Mimi saw the look on her friend’s face she found she needed to intervene in the conversation, “Li, your father went on a business trip he won’t be coming home for a few days.”   “Oh, okay. Mom I’m going to ask grandpa for help on this project okay?” he asked her, Sora simply nodded her head indicating he could go.   Li ran into the dinning room through it and to the front door, where he hurriedly put on his running shoes and grabbed a coat from the closet at the front, when the door slammed shut Sora lost it.   She got up immediately startling her friends, then ran to the door, “I have to find Taichi, I want to know why he is doing this to me,” she forced on her sneakers. Mimi and Yamato followed her.   “Sora don’t, you don’t know  where to look! Wait and we’ll call the police!” he shouted at her.   Sora turned to him giving him a angry glare, “NO! NO POLICE! NOT YET UNTIL I FIND HIM! HE CAN’T BE FAR!” she screamed at him.       He gotten angrier at her eagerness to find Taichi that he grabbed her by the wrist to stop her from leaving. But when he did do that,  he didn’t expect her to knee him in the stomach. Yamato let her go and bent over, holding his stomach area, in a fair amount of pain, “For god sakes Sora!” he yelled.                “Sora, please,” Mimi cried she had tears in her eyes, she knew he best friend was hurting inside at the moment and that she didn’t mean to be acting the way she is now. “This isn’t doing you any good.”            & nbsp;  “Once I find my husband he can explain everything…” she trailed off this time, the feeling of despair began to wash over her.             &nb sp; Mimi sensing this came over to her friend and hugged her, “Honey, I know this is hard on you. But please let us help,” she whispered softly her tears flowing freely down her cheeks.                “I know… I know…” she cried hugging Mimi tighter. Sniffling she pulled away from her the hug, “I’m sorry Yamato, I didn’t mean too hurt you,” she explained. Yamato only nodded then gave out a exasperated sigh.   ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~   Saria’s bedroom the comforters on her bed where thrown off and the window was open. Bed sheets tied together being used as a rope went out down the side of the house it was about a two story house.   Saria then jumped onto the ground she then pulled on a rope, that was made with five strands of yarn, the window to her bedroom was pulled closed. Walking to the kitchen door she peered in and saw her mom and her aunt and uncle talking at the kitchen table, “Sorry, Mom, I can get to the bottom of this,” Saria turned and ran.   ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*       ;         Taichi groaned he shifted in the bed his hands were still tied but he wasn’t gagged nor where his feet tied. He opened on eye then slowly the other, ‘God no I was hoping this was a dream…’ he thought.              ;  He looked around the darkened room there was no one in it, but him. Quietly Taichi tried to free is hands, he struggled to loosen the ropes but soon found he was only hurting himself, “This is just like a couple of years go, that loser Jeff,” he said out loud angry.   Taichi heard foot steps in the hall, he quickly pretended to fall asleep.                The door slowly swung open, Tiffany stepped in, she shyly walked to the bed, “Wakie, wakie Taichi,” she replied poking him with the cold metal barrel of the gun, which she held in her hand.             &n bsp; Taichi felt the coldness of the metal and he decided not to open his eyes.             &n bsp; Tiffany grew impatient seeing he didn’t wake up she slowly went window and looked out it, “Taichi, honey. I heard you just now, something about an loser…Jeff was it?” she pondered as she stared out the window.  The street lights were turned on she could see the street, but she turned back to Taichi’s sleeping form, “So stop pretending we got some business, and my temperature is just right.”                Taichi’s opened his eyes, widely he looked at her standing just before him, “WHAT?” What do you mean!?” he cried shocked, Taichi struggles to set up but Tiffany stopped him from doing so.             &nbs p; “Nah ah, Taichi, you will soon find out,” she laughed, “When I come back I want you to be ready, and forget about Sora,” she smiled and with a sexy walk, walked out of the room closing the door behind her.             &nb sp; “NO!” he shouted out loud, “I WON’T! I NEVER WILL!”     ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ &n bsp;             Saria question her into the cell phone, “You heard that didn’t you?”            &n bsp;  Davis nodded, “Yah I did but are you sure that’s your father?” he questioned.   “It has to be Davis, you remember the lady. She might have thought that she lost us the night of the anniversary but she didn’t think we would have found her house and she’s going to pay for doing what she is doing to my family. And what she plans to do with my father,” she told him with anger.             & nbsp;  “Saria don’t go in there alone call the cops, this is dangerous we know that she is insane you can’t just go barging in for all we know she could have a gun, and shoot you, you could get killed please listen Saria,” he warned her.             &nb sp; “Shhh...” she peered out of the bushes they were hiding in the woman was looking around as if she was seeking around, she go into her car and started it and was off quickly, “I can’t not risk that, I’m going in,” she told him.             &nb sp; Saria slowly looked around area for any sign of the grey Mazda, “Davis the coast is clear,” she got up and ran to the house, “Now I know your worried don’t be I’ll leave the phone on, just don’t make any noise,” she said placing her cell on it’s holder.                she opened the screen door then tried to open the front door, but found it was locked, “No damn it. I’m going around the back,” she replied.              ;  “SARIA! I told you it’s a bad idea!” Davis begged.                With out listening Saria continued to venture to the back of the house. she went to the back door and turned the handle it opened with ease.             &n bsp; Taichi frowned he heard a door open, He strained to hear who it was, “HELP!” wishing hopefully that it was someone that had heard him screaming and was going to rescue him.       Saria hearing her father’s voice jolted up the stairs quickly, “DAD!” Saria cried , going into the bedroom where he was being kept.    Taichi let out a sigh of relief, “SARIA how did you know where I was?” he wondered confused.   “Davis and I did our own investigating and it lead us to this house, and we knew that she was up to something. We couldn’t figure out what but I’m glad that your okay daddy,” she explained, and began to untie her father’s hands.   Once his hand were free he got up, “Come on quick she left and she said she was coming home soon,” Taichi said hurrying his daughter to follow.   The two ran down the stairs, then to the back door where Saria gained access into the house.   “FREEZE!” a voice came from across from them, Saria and Taichi turned and saw the woman standing there with angry features across her face, “You little rats! you and your boy friend!” she yelled at Saria.    Taichi stepped in front of Saria quickly, “Don’t you touch my daughter,” he replied stiffly.   “Your daughter is going to pay for following me!” she yelled bitterly.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   Mean while Davis was listening to the whole through Saria’s phone number he began to panic after he heard the woman threaten Saria, “SARIA!” he yelled into his cell.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   “Let us go, Tiffany, I was never in love with you or cared about you in high school. I was with Sora, I wasn’t with anyone else but the woman I love! and Saria is what we made out of our love.” he told her strictly.   “SHUT UP!” she pulled the trigger and shot at a painting that was hanging just on the other side of the door. It fell to the ground and the glass shattered into pieces.   “Daddy, she’s going to kill me..” Saria cried she gripped on to her fathers arm.   “She won’t hurt you, I won’t let her,” he whispered to her.     *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*                  &nb sp;                    Back at Sora’s and Taichi’s house…     The door bell rung Sora got up to get it but when she opened the door she saw someone who she didn’t want to see right now… her father. She shut the door in his face then walked back into the living room.   Dean opened the door again and came in, “Sora, what are you doing?” he questioned confused.   “GO AWAY FATHER!” she shouted angrily, Mimi and Yamato sighed. They saw that Dean had came into the room.   “What did I do, I said I was sorry for what I did…” he stopped seeing Mimi and Yamato he waved at them then sat down on the couch further away from his daughter who looked distraught, it worried him, “So where is Taichi? I see that your friends are over yet, I don’t see your husband,” he said quietly.   Sora just broke down in sobs, she then turned to her father and stood up, “HE LEFT ME ARE YOU HAPPY!! he, left!” she shouted.   Mimi went to her and gave her a hug to calm her down while Sora cried on her shoulder Dean grew angry hearing this bit of news.   “I knew it, I knew it all along he couldn’t be trusted,” he got up from the couch, “I warned you he would do that. He didn’t seem to be one that has the maturity level of a twelve year old! I TOLD YOU!” he shouted.   “MR. TAKENOUCHI!” Yamato cried, “You don’t know the whole story, you can’t assume that Taichi would just pick up and leave like that. I know he isn’t that kind of a man. He isn’t at all like that.”   “That doesn’t seem to matter dose it Yamato, maybe she should have married you instead of being stuck with him,” he replied.   “Taichi is my best friend! okay, I know he wouldn’t do what your claiming he would do.” Yamato growled angrily at him, he didn’t realize that this was the reason why Taichi was acting so weirdly as late, Mr. Takenouchi was an angry man. Angry because of Taichi stealing his daughter and marrying her.   “What do you know? nothing. This has nothing to do with you or your wife so why don’t you all leave so I can talk to my daughter in peace,” Dean suggested.   “Like hell, we are her friend we are going to be helping her through this okay!” Yamato explained giving Dean a cold glare.   ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*   “Yah, that’s what I will be doing when Taichi moves. Move Taichi and let me get a clear shot at her,” Tiffany replied moving her gun in a shoeing motion.   “No, and you have just screwed yourself up. Think about it Tiffany the door is open you shot at the picture it made a sound. And as this moment I’m sure there is the next door neighbor dialing nine one, one.”   “Don’t mess with my mind Taichi, there is no one closer then twelve feet away from me. How is it they are going to hear any shots at all?” she smirked approaching them.   “Your really insane,” Saria replied from behind her father, “Why don’t you leave my family alone? and go away!” she shouted.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   “SARIA ANSWER ME!” Davis yelled into his cell phone, his father came into the room and looked startled at Davis.   “What’s the matter?” he questioned.   “Saria’s in trouble dad, I heard a gun shot on the other side of the line, I can hear Mr. Kamiya talking to a stalker, and Saria helped him get out. I got to do something, we have to go back home!” he cried.   “We can’t we are already four hours away from Obadia there is no way we can get there back in time, all we can do is call the police and hope they get there in time,” Daisuke told him.   Davis grabbed the LAN phone line then dialed in nine one, one. he waited for some one to pick up on the other end of the phone, “Help, get the Obadia police to seven Hiller lane quickly!” he cried he paused for a moment gathering himself to explain why, “Someone kidnapped Taichi Kamiya, I heard gun shots you got to get out there now!” he hung up and wait and listened of what was happening on the other side of the phone. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   “I SAID STEP AWAY!” she yelled.   “AND  I SAID NO!” Taichi yelled back, he slowly backed up, Saria followed his steps backing up as well, “Saria, I want you to run for help.”   “No daddy, I can’t leave you here!” she cried.   “Go Saria, I’ll be fine,” he told her again, “On the count of three you’ll make a run for it okay.”   “Yes, let her be my target that’s smart Taichi, I have no use for things that came from Sora Takenouchi!” Tiffany snarled with anger.   “I won’t let you get hurt Saria,” he turned to her “Go! Please!” he begged, “I want you to go home to mommy and tell her that I’m being held hostage,” he whispered.   “But I can’t leave you, she’ll hurt you” she cried hugging him tightly.   “THAT’S ENOUGH! either you get out of the way or I’ll shoot right through you then I’ll shoot her!” she snarled with anger.   Saria bit her bottom lip she clasped her fathers hand tightly and then counted to three in her head and took off out the door.   Tiffany saw this then ran to the front door, Taichi ran after her before she could reach the door she felt herself being pulled back roughly he threw her to the ground and the gun went flying across the floor slowing to a stop just a millimeters away from the coffee table.   “Hell with you Kamiya,” she scrambled up to her hands and knees and tried to grab the gun.   Taichi raced toward the run it was a race that Taichi easily won, he picked the gun up, “Hell with me huh? I could say the same for yourself” he declared bitterly.   Tiffany got up from the floor favoring her left hand, “Why did you hurt me like that?” she questioned, approaching him slowly, “Why did you do that? to me of all people Taichi I’m just trying to help you. Sora isn’t good for you, she never was look what she did to you.”   “SHUT UP! I heard enough of your B.S. Tiffany. I KNOW WHAT IS GOOD! AND MY WIFE IS GOOD TO ME! MY WIFE Sora!” he shouted at her angrily, “IT’S NOT ENOUGH THAT YOU KIDNAPPED ME AND FORCED ME TO SIGN A LETTER SAYING I DON’T LOVE HER!” Taichi was steamed, and very angry, hurt and emotionally distraught of what the letter would have done to his marriage.    “Taichi, I’m sorry… I just wanted a chance and I saw this as a perfect chance,” she said calmly, she continued forward.    Taichi took two steps back and cocked the gun, “DON’T you dare move,” his hands shook while holding it out at her, “I’m not letting you of my sites. Not until the police get here,” he warned her.   ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~   “Who are you to tell me what I don’t think my friend would do !” Yamato demanded.   “Get out of here I want to talk to my daughter alone! both of you!” Dean shouted.   “I don’t want to talk to you dad, I don’t want to see you okay just leave!” Sora cried, fresh tears started to fall.   “Sora, you shouldn’t get upset this much,” Mimi replied patting her friend head gently with concern, “Yama, don’t do anything stupid,” Mimi warned him, he rolled his eyes the stared back at Dean.   “You know Yamato. I don’t understand why your so good with your friend Taichi. I mean from what I’ve been told you were going out with my daughter before he and my daughter were, then you let your best friend steal her from you like that,” he frowned and turned around shaking his head.    “No, you got that wrong, I knew Taichi like Sora but I asked her out first. It only grew to heart ache cause Sora was never truly mine. In her heart, deep down, it was Taichi not me. So No Mr. Takenouchi I’m not angry at Taichi any more it’s past, and the past stays in the past,” Yamato said to him, “Bring up this will not fix your problems.”   “NO! but I knew Taichi was bad, and I knew this would happen and damn to hell will not stop until I tell my daughter that he is unworthy of her love!” he cried.    The room was quieted as the front door swung open, and Saria came running in crying she ran to her mother, “Mom, you have to call the police Dad’s in danger!” then clung to her mother sobbing.   To Be Continued……
