It has been hours, and it was almost the end of the day. The sun has begun to hide behind the mountains, and the energetic people began to retire for the day. In a certain house, the wooden floor creaked as the heavy steps of man walked back and forward. "It's really worried, Aki mentioned that his son would be away from home for the day but it's getting to late."
The man listened to his wife, only a few hours ago, they returned home. Aki, their boss guaranteed them that [Name] would be home by the end of the day, but so far, they haven't see anything. "Wait here, I'll go and see if his son has arrived already."
The woman protested but decided to wait until her husband returned. As much as she tried to calm down, even preparing herself a tea, it didn't help. It just didn't feel right. With a shake of her head, she tried to convince herself that it was simply because they hadn't been apart from each other for too long. It passed maybe an hour before she heard that door being opened, and then it slammed shut rather loudly making the wall shake a bit. She rose to her feet, but opened noticing the frantic expression on his face, her eyes began to mist. "What happened?"
He cleared his throat, and there was a sound of cracking in his voice before he even began to speak. He cleared his throat, and rubbed his eyes attempting to stop the tears. He just couldn't break in front of his wife, he needed to stay strong. "I knocked and knocked, but he wasn't home. This doesn't feel right, he's not home, nor is he son. There's no one there."
"We can't just stand here and do nothing! [Name] hasn't come home, it's night already." The desperate mother rose to her feet, and as she did so, the cup in her hands slipped from her grasp shattering on the floor.
The man grabbed her hand and rushed to the door, heading to the Military Police Force. It's been too long, and if they don't do anything, if they wait a bit longer then it might even be too late. They ran, the woman now sobbing as she clutched her chest with her other hand. There were only a few standbys around, glancing at them whispering among themselves as the couple ran as fast as they could. It felt like an eternity when they arrived at the building, the alarming members of the Military Police seemed to be in a rush, as some went in or out. No one seemed to pay them any attention, but the father grabbed a nearby member trying to gain his attention.
The young man glared at the [Father's Name], and pushed his hands away from him. "What is this?"
"Please, we need help. Our daughter, she's gone, she is missing." [Mother's Name] answered now really sobbing with desperation.
"Listen" the man looked around himself, before he sighed. "Follow me." The three walked deeper inside the building, until the man took a seat in front of desk, there were two chairs in front of said desk and he motioned for the two parents to take a seat. "At the moment, the search will have to wait, an issue that requires our attention just presented itself. What I can do now, it to make a report and I am certain that either tomorrow, or in a few days, we'll make sure to investigate the issue."
"In a few days?!" The father slammed his hands on the desk in rage. "You expect us to wait while our daughter is missing?!"
The Police Officer glared at the man, standing to his feet in authority. "Like I said, that's the best we can do. If you would like, you can come another time once you have calmed down."
"No, no! That's fine." The woman grabbed her husband's arm and forced him to sit down. Her heart felt like it was breaking into pieces, but there was no other option. As soon as everyone was seated, [Mother's Name] began to explain everything. From the moment, the day started, they were even asked to give the description and names of Goro and his father.
Once the officer wrote everything down, he looked up at the fathers as he placed down the pencil on the desk. His eyes softened, knowing that it wasn't easy for them but he had a job to do and as much as he wanted to help them, he couldn't. "Thank you for all the information, I'm going to ask you to go home and stay put. Maybe she'll return, however, once we can take your case, we'll let you know."
It wasn't a response they wanted, no! How could they not do anything?! [F/N] rose to his feet and dashed to the exit. The woman thanked the officer as she followed her husband. "Wait!"
"We can't just stand here and do nothing!" The man growled, his hand grasping his hair and yanking at it. "I'll search all night if necessary."
With that he began his search, the mother as much as she wanted, she knew that she had to go home in case [Name] returned. It would be torturous to wait there, but there was no other choice. It was an eternity, it really was, but eventually the light of a new day began to peek inside the window. Her eyes felt so dry from all the crying and the lack of sleep. Her heart fluttered as she heard the door being opened, but beating heart shattered into pieces when he noticed the defeated form of the male. She didn't need for him to voice it, just by him showing alone said it all. Once again, she broke into wailing, hoping that it was only a nightmare and that soon she would hear you exiting your room. At the end, as much as she fought it, sleep took possession of her mind and she drifted to sleep. The man had walked straight to his room, crying, feeling useless. With a curse, his body screamed for rest, and eventually and slowly, he too drifted off to sleep.
Eventually, two days later, the case was passed to the Hokage. The Military Police would have taken care of it, but eventually the Hokage was notified about this certain case. A firm frown rested on the old man, as he read through the report.
Missing Case Report
Name of Person Missing: [Name] [Last Name]
Relatives of Missing Person: [Father's Name] and [Mother's Name] [Last Name].
Relationship: Parents
Suspects: Aki Amano and his Son Goro Amano
Even Detail:
[Name] [Last Name] was requested to accompany Goro Amano, the location is unknown. That have been taken place early in the morning but by the end of the day, there were no signs of either of them. As soon as the parents returned home, they waited for their daughter to return, but there was no sight of her. Her father [F/N], returned at Aki Amano's residence, however, no one was home by that time.
Actions Taken:
Due to certain circumstances, action to solve the case was not taken. However, the next day, a team was dispatched to interrogate Aki Amano, however his residence was inhabited, all furniture was in place, but the owner seemed to have fled. All personal belongings were gone. Later that day, the residency was searched, the team was dispatched to search every corner of the village, however, her body was not found. However, Genma Shiranui witnessed a couple close to the lake located at the Inuza Clan. From his description, the couple fits that of Goro Amano and [Name] [Last Name].
Summary:
[Name] [Last Name] was abducted by Goro Amano, with the help of his father Aki Amano. There is evidence that suggest that she wasn't killed.
As his eyes finished reading the report, he remained looking at it. He could not conclude that Orochimaru had anything to do with it, but from what happened at the second stage of the Chunnin Exams, it was hard to believe that he indeed had nothing to do with [Name]'s disappearance. There was a knock on the heavy wooden door, knowing him out of his pensive state. "Come in."
A male with brown shoulder length hair, and brown eyes. There a sonbon in his mouth. "You wanted to speak to me sir?"
"Yes, tell me about that couple to you spotted by the lake a few days ago"
"There's not much to it, they were seating by the lake sir, they seemed to be rather close so I assumed they were a couple. After that, we did notice some activity, but since the Chunnin Exams were taking place, we were focused of any possible danger coming to the village." He reported, a lot happened that day that the sight of the couple didn't seem suspicious.
The Hokage took a deep breath. "The girl's name is [Name] [Last Name], she was abducted that very same day. However, once her disappearance was reported, actions weren't taken because of Orochimaru's attack." A deep frown appeared on his face, adding even more wrinkles to his face. "Even if we sent a search team, the possibilities of finding her in close to zero. Inform her parents of the status of her case, tell them that it is close." With a wave of his hand, he dismissed the Shinobi.
It was cold, that he knew, but the safety of the village came first. If he does send a search team, it will not do any good to anybody. Now, he needs every single Shinobi/Kunoichi at his disposal just in case Orochimaru decided to attack. The Chunnin Exams are far from being over, and until then he needs to focus on tightening the security around. With that in thought, and with sadness he placed the report away. It wouldn't be easy for the parents, but the safety of the village takes priority.
