My Sister's Keeper
Disclaimer: I only own Kiera & Trinity Dranzer. And for anyone who's wondering: Kai's middle name is supposively Alexander. Boy all in their G-Rev outfits. Enjoy R&R.
A teenage girl slowly slipped to the edge of the roof she had was on. She had just woken up from a nightmare. "I refuse to see Boris or Voltaire." she said, spitting out their names like they tasted bad.
"Fate may force you to but we will see them."
"Who?" she asked.
"Who else have we lost contact with over the years?" the voice asked her as a firey figure appeared.
"The boys." she whispered.
"Yes the boys. They've grown up and look much different, but their personalities are not." the voice crooned.
"Enough." she said. The voice and the figure retreated from her mind.
"Do you know where you are going?" The teen wearing a white scarf rolled his eyes at the other teen behind him. "Kai." The red head, and team captain, stopped, arms folded over his chest, glaring at him. The silver haired teen and blonde stood beside him, watching their teammate.
"What Tala?" he asked.
"Where are we going?" Tala asked.
"We are not going anywhere. I am going to see someone." Kai muttered.
"Who do you know in this part of the world?" the blonde asked.
"That is none of your business." he said.
"Bryan, Spencer and I have all rights to know Kai." Tala said.
"Says who?" Kai asked.
"Me. As team captain." he said.
"That's you." he said, smirking.
"Do not test my patience Kai." the red head warned. Kai turned, tossed the tails of his scarfs over his shoulder and walked away.
"You're going to let him leave like that Tala?" Bryan asked.
"No. I'll find him. We're the only ones who will take him anymore anyways." he growled.
Spencer glanced at Kai and asked, "What about the BBA Revolution?"
"We're halfway across the world and I doubt Kai would return to them." he said.
The girl stood on the edge of the roof, looking down. She jumped, her scarf tails following her; she landed easily on her feet on the ground. "Why do people say that's so hard to do?" the girl asked to no one.
"Because they do not have the soul of a firebird."
"I told you to go away." she muttered.
"I can never truely leave you. I am always a part of you." the voice crooned.
"Well, just keep out of my head." she said.
"If you want me to, but you will have company when you return home." it said, then disappered. The girl turned her head slightly.
"Who would be waiting for me at home?" she asked.
Kai stepped just inside the door, carefully looking around. "She isn't here, but this is her apartment." he said. He stood there waiting to hear something, anything. "You didn't break in, it was unlocked." he reminded himself.
"You don't have permission. She isn't even here." Dranzer showed up in his mind.
"She won't care." he told her.
"She may. You haven't seen her in many years, you don't know her as well as you used to." the phoenix said.
"Go away." he said. She disappeared, leaving him alone.
Kiera didn't have to get far from her door to notice it was open, just enough for someone to slip inside her apartment. As she approached, she considered every factor of who could have gone inside. "Whoever it is, must have either figured I'd be back soon or just was careless." she said. "Boris and Voltaire are over in Russia somewhere, I hope. My old teammates all still live in the building, but they hardly come over. But how did the firebird know?" she whispered, under her breath. She glanced inside just enough see a pair of boots just inside her door. In fact, they were propping it open. She smirked, figuring out who it was. "Kai." she mused. Carefully she slipped her shoes off and set them inside the door. She slipped in through the small amount of space that he had left for her.
Kai's eyes slowly opened sensing the apartment's owner at the door. "She'll take her time and try to find me. Try." he thought, a smile playing over his usual hardset features. He glanced up, seeing the girl's scarf trail after her.
"She is here."
"I know. But I'll wait." he told the phoenix silently. The bird slipped away from his mind, leaving him to his thoughts. In the short amount of time he had been in the apartment, he had memorized it, except for one room that was locked from the inside. By the sound of her steps, she was on carpet, not far from him either. "Demetra." he said, being carefull to catch her attention. She spun, looking for him, her scarf tails following her every move; much like his did. Her eyes shone with a fearful look; he knew that only one person in their lives had ever called her that besides him. Voltaire would always call them by their Russian names of Demetra and Alexander, but only when they were around him. The rest of the time they were just Kiera and Kai. And no one had used those names in years.
Kiera took several deep breaths, praying that the voice belonged to who she hoped it did. "Where in the world are you?" she asked. He stepped out of the shadows of her entertainment center. "Alexander." she whispered, using his Russian name.
"Did I scare you?" he asked.
"Yeah." she said, hugging him
"Shouldn't leave your door open." a voice warned. Kai stared over her shoulder at the redhead who had walked in. Kiera turned slightly to see Tala, Bryan and Spencer.
"Kai." Bryan said.
"You have no business here." he growled.
"Like I said, we have all rights to know." Tala told him.
Kai thought on that for a moment and muttered, "You went through my personal files."
"And if I did?" he asked.
"You'll regret it Tala." he growled, gently pushing Kiera behind him.
"Don't leave your laptop laying around, especially with such an obvious password." Bryan said, holding up the cobalt blue laptop. Kiera stepped up to him and snatched it out of his hand. As she turned, Bryan grabbed her scarf tail and pulled her back. She turned her head as much as possible to look at him.
"Bryan!" Kai snapped, but the silver haired teen ignored him, focused on Kiera.
"You're enjoying this." she hissed.
"Yeah, actually." he told her. She grabbed the bottom on his fur lined jacket and pulled him down. As quick as she could, she forced him onto his back; her knee in his stomach, his arms pinned helplessly underneath him, his legs pinned down by her other knee. She slid the laptop across the floor and under the table. "Get off." he snapped.
"Not on your life." she shot back. Spencer went to pull her off, but was stopped by the blue firebird that appeared.
"Don't lay a hand on her, any of you."
Tala and Kai had resorted to fighting on the floor. "Get off, phoenix." Tala snapped, attempting to push him off. Kai pinned him down, eyes glared relentlessly into his. A growl began in the red head's throat.
"Stop it ALL of YOU!" five voices shouted in their minds. They all looked for the source of the voices, reacting as anyone would. A wolf, a whale, a falcon and a firebird appeared to them and went to be Kiera's phoenix's side.
"Dranzer." Kai said, looking over his shoulder at her.
"Seaborg. Falborg." Spencer and Bryan muttered, watching their bitbeasts.
"Wolborg." Tala growled, staring past Kai at it.
"Trinity, what are you doing?" Kiera asked.
"You all were raised together, you shouldn't be fighting." the bird crooned.
"There's limitations between simple curiousity and the invasion of privacy." Wolborg told Tala.
"You aren't helping the situation." he muttered.
"Let him go Kiera; and you too, Kai." Dranzer said, gently.
Slowly Kai and Tala seperated. Kiera pulled away from Bryan and she sat back about five or so feet. Tala came up into a crouch, touching his busted lip. Kai came up to his feet, staring at Dranzer. Spencer pulled Tala and Bryan both up to their feet. Kiera stood up, showing her full height. She stood about the same height as Kai, but his spikey hair gave him an inch on her; she was lighter built than him, but she could hold her own as well as anyone. Her hair fell around her neck, blue with some grey streaks in it; not having any of the spikes in it that Kai's had.
That's when from out of no where, both Dranzer and Trinity began to behave oddly. They each took on a form of a streak of light, one: red, the other: blue; then they began to fly around one another, twisting and turning together. Once they seperated, Dranzer flew towards Kai, brushing againest him. She flew close circles around him, ruffling his scarf and making his jacket flutter. "Dranzer, what are you doing?" he asked, watching her. Trinity was doing the same to Kiera, flying tight circles around her.
"Trinity." she muttered. Her scarf floated around her, her hair fluttered into her face. "Knock it off." Kiera giggled. The bitbeasts flew away from Kai and her, hovering beside Falborg, Wolborg and Seaborg. All five shared a sudden frightened look and dove at their owners.
"What's up with them?" Bryan asked, as they all disappeared into their beybits.
"Get them!" Dark figures rushed into the room at them. Tala's eyes went wild, flickering with a wolfish fear and he did the first thing that came to mind. He dodged away from the men who tried to grab him, hoping to see the door still open, but someone had closed it. Bryan's head jerked around searching for a window, Falborg's instincts taking over his. He found one, but didn't have time to move before he was forced to the floor. It took four of the figures just to restrain Spencer and three more to force him down on the ground. Kai backed up againest the wall, his eyes shooting to each of the men around him.
"Give it up boy. You're far outnumbered."
"And that should matter to me, why?" he asked. He tried to run, but a man grab-bed his scarf, jerking him backwards. Before he could get it off, the man wrapped it tightly around his throat to choke him.
Tala glanced at Bryan, Spencer and Kai, seeing them already overcome. His eyes narrowed; he began to growl furiously. "Here wolfy." One of the men came dangerously close and without warning, Tala lashed out at him. The red head jumped back, landing on all fours, like a wolf would have. The man remained still and then the pain hit him. "He bit me!" he shouted, looking at his gloved hand.
"Hope you get rabies." Tala said with a cold smirk. More men began to jump at him. He struggled, snarled and snapped, but couldn't free himself. "Get off me!" he shouted.
Kiera looked at Tala, Kai, Bryan and Spencer pinned down on her floor. She pulled off her scarf and tossed it down, making sure that they wouldn't be able to catch her that way. "Be a good girl and don't put up a fight like the boys did." one of the men told her.
"I'm not a good girl. And I plan to not let you guys put a hand on me and if you do, you'll have a very hard time, because I know every inch of this apartment." she growled. "Just don't let them find the locked room and bust into it." she pleaded slilently.
"Fine then." She slid to her right just enough to catch sight of an opening.
"Like I said, you'll have a very hard time catching me." she told them and ran. Several made grabs for her, but she dodged out of the way.
"Kiera!" Tala snapped, attempting to warn her; as soon as he did, two men grabbed her and forced her up againest the wall.
Kiera bit her lip as she felt her head hit the wall with a hard thud. She growled deeply, holding back a yelp of pain. "Well, my dear. You've done well for yourself."
"Voltaire." she whispered. The man walked up to her and looked her over.
"You gave my men a chase Demetra; you see I've been tracking you for years. But when you disappeared from under our sight, I began to send groups out searching for you. Now I have you again. And your precious phoenix." he said.
"I don't work for you, Voltaire. I never did, so face the facts. You, Boris and your slimy little group have no power over me and you will never get Trinity." she snarled at him. One of the men slammed her head againest the wall again.
"Don't hurt her you fool, we need her to control the firebird." Voltaire snapped. Kiera's vision blurred as darkness threatened to overcome her. The last thing she heard before she blacked out was someone, probably Kai, shout out her name.
Tala: Why is Boris back? And why is Voltaire out of jail?
Bryan: Good question.
