Joey sits against the wall dazed out as the Imperial Guards surround him as other guards wrestle with the Kounich, trying to tie her up. The eye patch commander smirks and punch Joey in the gut. Joey winces as The commander rips off his mask, showing off his blonde hair and green eyes.

"He's an Irishmen" The eyepatch commander snares as he roughly throws Joey in to the arms of 2 large guards. Joey tries to struggle but he couldn't get out of the iron grip. The they place shackles on his wrist.

The eyepatch commander turns to the Kounich who now had long chained cuffs placed on her wrists. She struggles and curses as the guards removed her tanto sword, hiding knives, and blinding powder. The eyepatch commander pulls off the Kounich's mask to revale her face. Joey looks at her, with her face unmasked. She had long black hair, golden brown eyes, asian features and a beautiful pale face. She looks at Joey as she sees his face. Joey could see the desperation in her eyes. The guards remove Joey of his sword, ninja stars and hidden knifes.

The eyepatch commander grabs the Gem and places it in its box as he smirks at Joey and the Kounich.

"The Gem of secrets now belong to Genreal Chun !" The eyepatch commander shouts evilly to rub it in the ninjas faces.

They drag Joey and the Kounich away, they struggle against the guards as they are dragged down the hallway. In the minute of thire struggle the Kounich and Joey look at each other's eyes.

"(Your not my enemy are you ?)" She says softly in Japanese.

Joey for years has practiced the art of Ninjutsu but has done much for the language. He couldn't quite understand what she said.

"Master Rhino, I came to avenge his death and the Gem was the only I could stop him" Joey said looking at her beautiful eyes.

"(I'm sorry I thought you were my enemy.... I should of realized your were a friend but now it's too late, god knows what they have planned for us)" The Kounich whispers, her tone sounded frighten and fragile like a scared girl underneath.

Joey wanted to say everything was gonna be okay but theses imperial soilders meant to do serious harm to thire prisoner. In all honesty he was scared just like she was. All he can do was give her was a reassuring look the best he could muster. There brought outside where an caged transport was parked in front of the jail.

Joey glared at the eye patch commander.

"Where are you taking us you wolf !?" Joey shouts.

"To commander Chun, he personally wants to meet you Irishman" The eye patch commander smirks before turning to the Kounich, grabbing her face forcing her to look at him. ("Your uncle Chun is looking forward to seeing you ineed, little girl") The eye patch commander laughs.

"Uncle ?" Joey whispers starring at the Kounich in disbelief.

The Kounich bows her head in shame, not wanting to look her captures or Joey in the eye. Her uncle was an horrid man who wanted to kill innocents no one would ever want to be associated with that.

"Do whatever you want to me but let the girl go !" Joey shouts.

The imperial guards and the eye patch commander brust out in laughter.

"Tie them together and throw them into the cage ! General Chun is expecting us"  The eye patch commander shouts.

The soilders smirk at Joey and the Kounich as they hold up ropes. At right there things were only going to get worse for Joey as He and the Kounich are shoved together back to back as ropes are wrapped around him and the Kounich. As they struggle, the imperial soilders throw them into the cage.

"Take them to the temple of Rhion !" The eye patch commander smirks as the car drives off.
