Kai sat in his room, it was midday but he had kept the curtains closed to make himself an artificial night. Four empty vodka bottles lay around his curled up form, he hadn't wanted to drink and it was more than likely that he would never drink again but he had to make the images blur; the pain fade. Tala had been gone for hours, every time Kai heard a sound outside their apartment door he hoped it was the Russian boy coming back to him. But it never was and Kai knew that it never would be, he had drove Tala away forever and he was never coming back.
He couldn't believe that this had all started with a letter that he had found. It had been addressed to Kai but the tattooed boy had never seen it before. He had read the contents of it while hiding it from Tala. The swirling, overly neat handwriting had released a dark, deep secret from the depths of Kai's memories. The words of the letter had unlocked all the doors and knocked down all the walls that Kai had made to subconsciously keep himself from those memories. They all came flooding back and Kai plummeted into depression.
He hadn't eaten properly in days and even though his stomach was complaining Kai couldn't face the long walk from his bedroom to the kitchen. There were pictures of him and Tala all over the hall and Kai thought that he would never be able to get up if he saw their smiling faces. He decided to quite his stomach and stop the jumbled mess that was his thoughts by sleeping off what he had drunk. He lay down on the bed and sighed as his arm automatically went to the other side of the bed expecting to feel Tala's warm body. Kai sighed again and closed his eyes hoping to block out the world that he was currently in. Little did he know that in his dreams he would re-live one of the memories that he had tried so hard to protect himself from.
Kai opened his eyes and he was back in The Abbey. He stood up from the bed that he was lying in and walked over to the door. Everything seemed oddly familiar yet he was small, so small that he was only eye-level with the doorknob. His tiny had reached out and felt the cold metal but before he could open the door it was opened from the other side and Boris and some of the Abbey's trainees stepped through it. Boris sidled over to Kai and grabbed the small boy's shoulder "Boys, This is Kai. He'll be your... host this evening" Kai looked up at the boys. They all looked in between sixteen and twenty, there were four of them and he didn't particularly want to be their host. There was nothing to serve them in the room anyway; he didn't have any food or drink. Kai suddenly felt like he'd missed a key part of the conversation as the men all exchanged knowing looks and grinned at each other before finally rounding on Kai. One then spoke to him in Russian "We're going to enjoy ourselves tonight aren't we little one?" As Kai didn't know what they were doing tonight he just nodded, he presumed that this had been the right thing to do as all the men laughed and the largest man stepped forward "I'll go first" since the other three groaned and complained that it wasn't fair Kai figured that what they were all going to do would be fun.
Boris then let go of Kai's shoulder and turned to the four men "I'll leave you all alone then. But remember, not too rough he is only seven and Voltaire wants his grandson intact for his future plans" He then turned back to the small boy "Be a good boy now Kai, don't forget to do everything the others tell you. That way you won't get hurt when you're playing"
Boris then left and Kai heard his own child voice say "Are we playing a game? What game is it?"
The large man who had stepped forward before smiled and said "We'll tell you what game we're going to play as long as you lie down nice and quite on the bed okay?"
"Okay!" He then ran to the bed that he had woken up in and lay down as quite and still as he could
"Good. Now what we're going to do is; we're going to take it in turns to play doctors okay? And you're going to be a good patient for us right?"
"What do I have to do?"
"Just lie there and do what I tell you to do"
"Alright"
The large man walked over to the bed and the others seemed to make themselves comfortable on the floor. The man then got onto the bed and loomed over Kai "Take off your clothes"
"Erm... Mr... Mr..."
"Ludovic"
"Well, Mr. Ludovic. Why do I have to take my clothes off?"
"How do you expect me to check that you're ok if all of your clothes are in the way?"
"Oh, ok" So Kai stripped down to his underwear
"And those kid"
"What? Can't you do it like this?"
"No and if you wont do it then I will!" So Ludovic grabbed Kai, threw him down on the bed and ripped the boy's underwear from his body. Kai was pretty sure that what Ludovic did to him after that wasn't what doctors were supposed to do. Afterwards Kai was in pain, he felt awful and filthy. He finally thought that it was all over but then the second man stepped up and took Ludovic's place, and then the next one after him and the next one after him.
In about three hours Kai was left alone in the room crying his little eyes out from pain and distress. After he had calmed down and Boris had brought him some food Kai tried to put the ordeal behind him. But then the door opened again.
Kai woke up with tears streaming down his face. He could still feel the faint pain that the men had caused and could sense their touch on his body. He shuddered and wiped his eyes. Now he felt dirty again so he walked down the hall with his eyes closed so he wouldn't see Tala's face beaming down at him. In the shower as he felt the hot water run down his back only one thought crossed his mind "I'm sorry Tala"
My First Beyblade fic, very angsty I know. If anybody does want the lemon scene then think it up in your own little minds and please keep it there as I'm not writing it, poor little Kai has been through enough. Anyhoos, please review! Why Tala left is in the next chapter!
