Chapter 3

 

 

Entering her personal chamber, Yuki took out a device... a cell phone to be exact. She dialled a number, and waited for answer... Meanwhile, somewhere in the Land of SNK, near the South Shadow Woods, stood a building... In the main office inside, a blond man was sitting on a chair in front of the desk. He appeared to be the boss of the building. Then, he received a call from his phone, and picked it up...

 

 

Man : Seven Kidnappers Headquarters here. Geese Howard speaking. Who's this ?

Woman's voice : This is Queen Yuki from the Queendom of SNK. So, I am speaking to the boss, eh ?

Geese : Ya got it right. So, what is your purpose ?

Yuki : Well... I want to kill my three daughters. But right now they're lost at the South Shadow Woods... So, can your team go there, and kidnap them to me so I can kill them ?

Geese : Hmmm. Sounds like a plan. You've got yourself in a deal, my queen. I'll let my squad leader call you when they secured the princess.

Yuki : Very good. Good bye.

 

 

With that, Yuki hanged the phone. Back to the 7 Kidnappers Headquarters (7KHQ), Geese rang a bell from his desk and suddenly 7 figures entered... They're the infamous Seven Kidnappers, which consists Billy Kane, as their leader, Ryuji Yamazaki, Krizalid, Kagami Shinnosuke, Earthquake, Gen-An Shiranui, and Sankuro Yorozu.

 

 

Geese : Men, you've got a new job now !

Billy : So, what's cookin' now ?

Yamazaki : Will it involve lots of... BLOOD !? Hehehehe....

Geese : We'll just see about it later. Well, apparently Queen Yuki has gone insane...

Kagami : Well, we heard that already. Do you want us to kidnap her ?

Geese : No ! In fact she is our client !

Earthquake : GFFF... So, who do we kidnap ?

Geese : Her princesses, Nakoruru, Kula Diamond and Hotaru Futaba.

Gen-An : Hehehehe !! Girls ! Can we boil'em after we're done ? They'll make good foods out of them ! Hehehehe !!

Billy : If that happen, who's gonna pay us, dumbass !?

Sankuro : Girls !? Wow ! They're going to sell a lot ! I'm going to be RICH !!

Krizalid : The money will be SHARED, ugly !

Earthquake & Sankuro : *disappointed sigh*

Geese : Are you all DONE HERE !?

Everyone : *silence*

Geese : All right. After you kidnap them, contain them somewhere, and call Queen Yuki. She'll give you further instructions. I'll hand her number to Krizalid, and Billy can take care of calling her.

 

 

Geese then gave the phone number to Krizalid, and gave his cell phone to Billy.

 

 

Geese : That's about it ! Now go !! Don't fail me !

Everyone : *Earthquake says 'GFFF' first, Yamazaki and Gen-An have an insane chuckle first* ROGER !

 

 

So, the 7 kidnappers left to search the princesses. Meanwhile, back to Galford and his brothers, they just arrived at the Queendom's castle gate at the afternoon. However...

 

 

Guard : The princesses have been gone since this morning...

K' : Where did they go ?

Guard : They were just away from taking mushrooms...

Galford : Now that's weird ! How can they waste so much time, just to pick up some frigging mushroom here !?

Rock : Something is amiss here. I think the queen is plotting something about this one...

K' : Hm !? *his cell phone rang*

Galford : Wassup, K' ?

K' : A short message from father. He told us to come back to the castle right now.

Galford : What !? And leave out this case about Nakoruru and the others !? They might be in a grasp of evil right now !!

K' : Well you can stay and search for them yourself, if you insist.

Galford : WHAT !?

Rock : Calm down ! Let's just return to the castle. I think father has a plan...

 

 

The brothers returned to the castle. Back to the throne room, they saw Moriya... as well as Yuri !

 

 

K' : Hm ? You're...

Rock : Yuri Sakazaki from the Queendom, am I right ?

Yuri : Uh-huh !

Galford : What are you doing here ?

Yuri : I escaped from my Queendom. I can't take that insanity anymore !

Moriya : Well, she told me about how the Queen asked her to kill the princesses.

Galford : What !?

Yuri : But I refused ! Instead, I sent them to the South Shadow Woods !

K' : South Shadow Woods ? Why not here ?

Moriya : There's another thing that I missed out. It turned out the refugees this morning are spies. Yuri told me that the queen send spies to infiltrate my kingdoms and kill the princesses if they enter my territority.

Rock : What !?

Galford : That's inhuman !!

Moriya : That's why I want you to check the city... and capture these spies.

Rock : How do we detect them ?

Moriya : Well, the castle cameras captured some screens about them. You can get them from the security guards. Now go.

 

 

Galford and his brothers left their father, and headed to the security guards to retrieve the screen captures. It turned out that there are 6 refugees... or spies. They decided to split up and search for the spies...

 

 

K' managed to found one of them... in one alley.

 

 

K' : You there. Did you just arrive here today ?

Man : Yes, so ?

K' : You came from the Queendom ?

Man : That's right.

K' : Well, good. Come with me. The King is going to see you.

Man : You'll never catch me !!

 

 

The man then pulled out a knife and tried to attack K'. K' used his Black Out to move out of the way, but the man still attacked. K' then used his Iron Trigger once and stopped the man, by knocking him out.

 

 

K' : Useless effort. Now come with me.

Man : Never !! ... Ugh !? Ughaaaaa !!!!

K' : What !?

 

 

Suddenly, the man vaporized into green slime. K' was shocked. He knew that his flames never turn anyone into green slime.

 

 

K' : Weird...

 

 

Then, K' resumed his search...

 

 

Meanwhile, back to Nakoruru and her sisters, they decided to brace themselves and entered the small house. It was one dusty house...

 

 

Kula : *cough* Dusty... Should we really stay here ?

Hotaru : But it should be nice if we clean them up...

Nakoruru : Hmm... There are a lot of cleaning tools here. Let's do it.

 

 

The trio then proceeded to clean the house. As if they were understood by animals, the surrounding animals proceeded to help them, and they accepted the help of the animals, making the cleaning activity more merrier. Finally, at 6 p.m, they were done.

 

 

Nakoruru : *to the animals* Thank you, everyone !

Hotaru : Phew ! I'm tired !

Kula : There's a sleeping room upstairs. Wanna sleep ?

Hotaru : Yes ! Let's sleep !

 

 

The sisters then proceeded to the sleeping room, where they found 7 beds, with the right size... except one huge bed and one small bed. They took the normal beds and slept, knowing that nothing will disturb their peaceful sleep... Poor girls ! They don't know who actually owns this house...

 

 

At around 9 p.m, the silence of the forest were suddenly disturbed by one loud song played from one huge recorder. The song is London March (Billy's theme in KOF 97). And it turned out that... it was carried by Earthquake. And the other kidnappers were walking near him. They proceeded to the house where Nakoruru, Kula and Hotaru slept... and...

 

 

Billy : STOOOOPP !!!

 

 

Billy barred the other's path, making them bump each other... and Earthquake fell down, dropping and destroying the recorder... as well as trampling the others.

 

 

Kagami : Get off me you insolent baboon !

Earthquake : GFF... Sorry.

Krizalid : Why stop now ? Thanks to your sudden interruption, now our precious recorder is destroyed.

Billy : Look there ! Our house !

Sankuro : Well, what about it ?

Billy : It's opened !! What if the authorities found out our 'mission' hideout ?!

Kagami : I think someone should check inside. But who ?

Yamazaki : Hehe... how about if we send the stupid one ?

Everyone : *glares at Sankuro*

Sankuro : Me !? Hey ! My life is too precious to be wasted on those authorities !

Krizalid : Remember... you are the stupidest ! You are lucky that we still accept you as the Seven Kidnappers !

Kagami : We would be fine if we're called Six Kidnappers, without you anyway !

Sankuro : B...but !

Billy : Who's the leader here ?

Sankuro : Billy ?

Billy : Good. And now, as a leader, I order you to... CHECK INSIDE !!!

 

 

Sankuro had no choice but to obey. He then went inside as the others waited.... until...

 

 

Yamazaki : I got one good idea here... hehehe...

Billy : What idea ?

Yamazaki : In case there's some police inside, we'll ambush them... and beat the pulp out of them until they die !

Gen-An : Hehehehehe !! Sounds bloody fun here !

Krizalid : ...!? Footsteps !? Hide, now !!

 

 

The six kidnappers hide behind the bushes. And when they detected a figure entering... they didn't think twice, and ambushed the figure, beating the pulp out of the figure.

 

 

Figure : AAAAAHH !!! Wait ! It's me ! Sankuro !!

Billy : Sankuro ?

Gen-An : Heh ! Who cares ! It's fun beating you anyway !

Yamazaki : Right on !! Hehehe !! *Everyone except Billy pound on Sankuro more*

Sankuro : AAAAAAAAAARRRRGGHHHHHHH !!!

Billy : Stop ! That's enough !!

Everyone : *stops*

Billy : So, what do you see, Sankuro ?

Sankuro : You won't believe it... The princesses are actually sleeping here !

Kagami : Perfect ! We can immediately kidnap them now !

Billy : Wait. I have a plan so all of us can be happy with this.

Krizalid : Okay, go on.

 

 

Billy then rounded up his fellow kidnappers and told them his plan... Then, knocking sounds can be heard outside of the sleeping room, waking the princesses up.

 

 

Nakoruru : Uh... who could have visited us... Wait, visit !?

Kula : Urgh... Sis, I think I'm thirsty...

Hotaru : Me too...

Nakoruru : ... I'm also thirsty. Let's go get some water downstairs.

 

 

The three of them proceeded to exit the door, but when they got out, suddenly they were grabbed by Billy, Yamazaki and Krizalid.

 

 

Kula : Hey ! Who're you !?

Hotaru : Lemme go, dammit !

Nakoruru : What is this supposed to... Mmpgh !

Billy : Shut up !

 

 

The three princesses were handgagged by their grabbers. They could do nothing as they were threatened with Earthquake, Gen-An, Kagami and Sankuro, each pointing out their weapons to them...

 

 

Back to Galford and his brothers, they eventually meet up near the castle's gate at night.

 

 

Galford : So, how did it go ?

K' : I've gained nothing.

Rock : Something is weird. Okay, I asked them to come, but suddenly they attacked...

K' : Hm ? Same thing happened to me.

Galford : And then, when they are defeated, they turned into green slimes !?

Rock : ... Right.

Galford : What the hell is the queen thinking, sending these abominations ? Let's go back to father !

 

 

Then, the brothers returned to Moriya, and reported everything.

 

 

Moriya : I see. That means there's only one option left.

Galford : And that is...?

Moriya : We will solve this matter ourselves. I and Yuri will go to the Queendom's castle and investigate, you three find the princesses.

Rock : That sounds good.

Yuri : Uh, you might want to take Mamahaha and Itokatsu along. They might help you spotting their masters !

Galford : Great idea ! I'll bring Poppy as well !

K' : But you are its master.

Galford : It's a dog, dummy ! It can detect people's whereabouts with his smelling ability ! Not to mention that Nakoruru like to play with it, it can recognize her stench !

K' : Hmmm... that makes sense.

Moriya : We will depart tomorrow. Get some rest for now.

 

 

And so, the king and princes had to retire to their rooms, in order to prepare for tomorrow. Meanwhile, back to the kidnappers, Kagami was sitting down, meditating and chanting a spell, while Nakoruru, Kula and Hotaru could do nothing but watch, as they were sitting on three boxes, with their hands tied behind them on their wrists, legs tied on their ankles, knees and thighs, body tied on their shoulders and waists, binding their arms to their body, and their mouths gagged with a thick black cloth over their mouth. All of them struggled and continued to make muffled voices.

 

 

Kula & Hotaru : Mmmmmphh ! Mmmmmphh ! Mmmmmphh ! Mmmmmphh !

Billy : Feeling comfortable, eh, ladies ?

Nakoruru : Mmmmmmfff !!

Billy : Soon, you will witness why we are infamous in terms of kidnapping ! Until...

Earthquake : *stomach grubble in a loud sound* GFFF... I'm hungry...

Kagami : *chanting stopped* Dammit, Earthquake ! You're disturbing my concentration ! Now I have to start all over again ! *chants again*

Gen-An : You're hungry ? Maybe you can grill these princesses for food, instead ! They sure look tasty !

Nakoruru, Kula, Hotaru : MMMMMMPPPHHH !!!

Yamazaki : Oh, and can you splatter their bloods as dessert ! Hehehehe !

Billy : There will be no murder here, PERIOD !! These girls have to be alive !

Sankuro : Aww come on. At least we can sell them for...

Billy : Who're you to order me, you unworthy member !?

Sankuro : Boo-hoo !

Billy : I say we wait for Krizalid, and that's it !

Kagami : Heh heh heh... The chanting is complete... Now, ladies, this won't hurt a bit...

Nakoruru : Mmmmmpphhh...

 

 

Kagami stood up. His hands emitted small blue flames, though not harmful. Then with that hand, he touched all the ropes that bound the girls and also the gags.

 

 

Kagami : All done !

Kula : Mmmmmmpphh ??

Billy : I bet you're asking why we're famous. All right then ! Kagami just put a curse on your ropes and gag !

Hotaru : Mmmff !?

Billy : Well, with that curse, there's no way you're gonna untie yourselves and remove your gags, unless you got kissed by your best friend or your lover... while you're gagged !

 

 

Just then, Krizalid returned.

 

 

Krizalid : Hey, guys. I'm back !

Earthquake : You bring the food ? GFFF... Me hungry.

Krizalid : Stored that in my indoor backpack...

 

 

Krizalid then opened his mechanical chest, revealing one small bag. He put it on a table and pressed a button. The small bag unwrapped itself and revealed one big meal for the seven kidnappers !

 

 

Gen-An : YESS !! FOOD !!

Billy : All right, guys. Meal time !

Kagami : Well, at least let me move these ladies so we can get one nice environment while we eat.

 

 

Kagami took three chairs, and then, he made Nakoruru, Kula and Hotaru sat there, and tied them on the chairs, facing the table, but still far from it. Then, the seven kidnappers ate their meals as they also watched the princesses struggled and made a lot of 'Mmmff mmmff' voices with no avails. And when they're done...

 

 

Sankuro : *yawn* I'm sleepy...

Yamazaki : A nice surrounding before we sleep should be a good idea.

Billy : And what do you mean by that ?

Yamazaki : Fill the room with blood ! Ehehehe !!

Billy : Denied !

Yamazaki : Just kidding. I mean, we take them to our room, and before we sleep, we can see them struggle like before again !

Gen-An : BRILLIANT !! Do it do it do it do it !!

Kagami : Sure thing... Move them there with the chairs, Earthquake.

Earthquake : GFFF...

 

 

As the other kidnappers prepared their beds, Earthquake took the princesses along with the chairs to the sleeping room, and put them in the center of the room, surrounded with the beds. And the kidnappers enjoyed watching their struggle, even though their eyes started to get heavy slowly and slowly...

 

 

Hotaru : Mmmmmmpphhh !!

Billy : What a sight... indeed... good night... Zzzzz....

Kula : MMMMMPPHHH !!!

Nakoruru : Mmmmmmff...

Billy : *muttering* Their 'Mmmmff mmmff' voices makes one hellishly good lullaby.... Zzzzzz....

Hotaru : Mmmmmfff mmmmfff mmmmfff !!

 

 

Hotaru thought that if she kept yelling, the kidnappers would get disturbed enough that they will free them. Nakoruru and Kula slowly got what she meant and they also joined her on yelling. However, they were totally wrong, because the kidnappers treated those muffled yells as lullabies, making them enter a deeper slumber. Eventually, the princesses got tired as well and had to sleep while tied on their chairs...

 

 

What awaits all of the characters on the next morning ?
