Prey
"Is he going to be okay?" the tall redhead whispered to his lavender haired companion. Icy blue eyes watched the prone form of the Chinese blader known as Ray concerned. The contents of the unconscious boy's drink was slowly sleeping into the crimson red carpet of their team leader's gamesroom.
"Who knew he would be a cadbury?" the lavender haired Russian, Bryan said with a smirk. "We'd better disappear before Kai discovers that we are responsible for giving Ray alcohol."
The petite blader snuck off to one of the many doors with his redheaded partner in crime, Tala, close behind. They managed to make it into the safety of the next room as the main entrance opened. Tala left the door of their hideout slighly ajar so they could watch the next scene unfold.
The navy blue head of Ray and Kai's former teammate Tyson poked its way around the door looking for the missing trio. They heard is soft exlamation as the bluehaired boy spied Ray unconscious in the middle of the floor with a drink lying next to him.
Tyson entered the room quickly rushing to his friends side. He checked Ray's vitals, he was relieved to see that the Chinese blader was breathing and that his heart was beating strongly. He rocked back on his heels and lifted up the glass to took a whiff. His nose wrinkled at the strong smell of alcohol.
"Vodka." he muttered. "It can only mean that Tala and Bryan were here."
The guilty pair glanced at each other before turning back to watch Tyson and Ray.
"Ray." Tyson said calmly, gently shaking the raven-haired bladers shoulder. "Wake up."
The older boy's body moved bonelessly in his grip. Sighing with frustration, the blue haired boy knelt back and ran a hand through his hair. Bits of it were starting to come free of his loose ponytail. And Ray was still not waking up even though he'd been discovered only 5 minutes ago. Who knew how long he'd be unconscious for.
'Oh. That's right.' Tyson's eyes narrowed slightly in speculation. 'Tala and Bryan do. Where would I be hiding if I were them?'
Chocolate brown eyes scanned the room. The main entrance was out as he would have seen them. That left 3 possible hiding places. The cupboard which was to small to hold them both as well as all the other things. That left the entertainment room to his right or the study on his left. He eyed the doors in turn and realised the door to the study was open slightly.
'Bingo' he thought. He lifted a lef to get up and berate the pair but a slight movement alerted him that Ray was slowly waking up. He shifted his knee back to its former position and leant over his friend to peer into his face.
A soft groan slipped out of Ray's mouth. Hazy golden eyes slowly opened and met up with concerned brown. He heard Tyson murmur something at him but it didnt register as something deep inside clicked into place.
Tyson's worry increased when he got no reply. "Ray? Are you alright?" he repeated again. The hazy look in Ray's eyes vanished, the liquid gold eyes darkened to a burnished gold and the cat-like pupils enlarged rapidly. Tyson frowned. "Are you alright?" he asked urgently.
Ray let his eyes assess his prey quickly before he pounced.
Tyson yelped as he was knocked onto his back, Ray straddling him. A naughty smirk flashed his new fangs. A tail flicked lazily from side to side.
'Wait a minute.' Tyson thought brain racing. 'A tail? Since when does Ray have a tail?' His brain also noted the white furry ears poking out of the bangs drifting around the older boy's face.
His thoughts slammed to a halt when a mouth was pressed roughly to his. He opened his with shock and Ray's tongue swiftly entered. Tyson's eyes bugged out. He tried to tear his mouth away but two hands gripped his face refusing to let him move away.
At last the desperate need to breathe broke the kiss. The blue haired boy gasped in air staring at his captor in stunned surpise. Ray purred happily above him.
Tala and Bryan choked back their laughter at the scence before them. This was certainly better than the tame party going on downstairs!
Tyson suddenly placed his hands on his friends chest and tried to push him off. Ray growled grabbing those hands and pinning them above the blunettes head. He used one of his hands to keep them there and let the other tilt his preys head back with one claw.
"MINE!" he growled possessively. He nipped lightly at Tyson's neck before sinking his teeth in. The warm body beneath him jerked and a whimper of pain caught his attention. He lifted his head up and saw tears fill those eyes. He purred and lightly butted his head against his prey's face. He turned and lapped at the wound in silent apology.
A loud thump made Ray jerk his head up. Ears twitched as he tried to identify the source. His eyes narrowed to slits as he spied the source of trouble. He bared his fangs and growled a warning.
Tyson looked at Ray. His body felt lethargic. 'What did he do to me?' he thought fuzzily to himself.
Ray's head suddenly snapped towards the door. He heard light footfalls heading their way.
The blood suddenly sped up in Tyson's veins, blazing its way through, giving him the strength to throw the distracted boy off him. He scrambled to his feet and managed to dodge Ray's tackle.
The loud bang made them both jump. They looked at the blonde-haired boy in the doorway. He grinned from ear to ear, sparkling blue eyes filled with mischief.
"Ray! Tyson!" he shouted gleefully.
'Who let Max into the sugar?' Tyson sweatdropped.
"KITTY!" Max shrieked pointing at Ray. The black haired blader pinned his ears back and deathglared the hyperactive blonde. His white tail whipped from side to side.
Tyson used the momentary distraction to sneak past Max. As Ray finally noticed his escape path and moved towards him, Tyson shoved the poor blonde into him before tearing out of the room.
Max grabbed Ray in an enthusiastic hug much to the older boy's dismay. "Kitty!" he yelled again happily. The Chinese blader managed to wriggle out of the other boys grip before running out of the room after his prey.
The blonde sunk to the floor. Tears filled his eyes and his lower lip trembled violently.
"Maxie!" a voice whispered quietly. He looked towards his right and saw a door slightly ajar. A small bowl sat in the entrance. It was filled with lollies. His tears rapidly vanished.
'Lollies!' his mind shouted at him happily. He bonced back onto his feet and moved towards them. It slid behind the door a little bit.
He stopped and pouted.
"Maxie!" that voice rang out again. The lollies. They were talking to him! He moved forward like a zombie towards his prize. The door closed behind him.
Tala and Bryan looked at each other.
"What the fuck?" the asked each other.
"You follow Tyson, I'll follow Max." Bryan ordered. Tala rolled his eye before leaving the room to find his friend and rival.

Tyson ran through the hall, gasping for breath. 'Shit. He's fast.' he thought. He could hear Ray following not far behind. 'Time for a little detour!'
He took the next left and ran down the stairs somehow managing not to trip. He took an immediate right and then the door on the left. He closed the door quietly and lent against it gasping for breath.
The people in the room looked up at the sudden entance. The remaining Demolition boys; Ian, Spencer and Kai were here along with the members of the All Starz, Majestics and Team Pyschic.
"Hi?" he said weakly.
"What is going on Tyson?" Kai, his former team leader and the current party host glared at him suspicously from his seat at the card table.
"G-going on? Nothing!" Tyson said all innoncence. A thump at the door made all of them start.
"Tyson!" Kai said warningly. The blue-haired boy used his considerable muscle and weight to keep the door closed. Unfortunately for him it was opening slowly inch by inch.
"Dont ignore me Granger!" Kai tossed his hand in and rose from his seat. He strode towards Tyson and the door threateningly. The younger man lost his concentration and slipped when a heavy push shoved the door open enough for Ray to slip in.
The golden eyed boy looked at the room's occupants and made a noise of disappointment when he couldnt locate his prey.
"TYSON!" Kai snapped. Ray followed the crimson eyed boy's gaze to find the mentioned person sprawled on the ground. He made another noise, this time of interest, before he pounced.
Tyson used his abdominals to flips himself back onto his feet making Ray faceplant into the marble floor.
He pelted for the open window on the opposite side of the room. Ray bounced onto his feet and chased him much to the bemusement of the other people in the room.
Tyson launched himself out the ground floor window and into the garden heading straight for the maze.
Ray was pulled up short by Kai. His white tunic strained as he struggled in that iron grip.
Everyone stared at the Chinese youths newly aquired feline features. "What the fuck is going on?" Kai swore visciously. Golden eyes met crimson with a smirk.
Ray ducked out of his tunic and lept through the open window shirtless. It hung uselessy from Kai's hand. Everyone looked out the window in consternation.
Tala suddenly entered gasping for breath. "Which way?" he asked when everyone looked towards him. They all pointed out the window.
The redhead suddenly noticed an irate Kai holding Ray's tunic. He smiled weakly before running and jumping out the window as well.
ts
Bryan inched closer to Max. The blonde sat huddled over a bowl crooning to it reverently.
"So pretty. So sweet." the boy giggled to himself. Bryan sweatdropped.
He heard a muffled giggle. He looked up to see the green haired boy Kevin and the pink-haired girl Mariah of the White Tigers hiding behind a couch. He glared at the pair.
Max suddenly noticed Bryan sneaking up on him. "Mine!" he hissed, grabbing the bowl and cradling it close to his chest.
"Max. You have definetly had enough sugar I think." Bryan reached for the bowl slowly.
Max yowled with rage and kicked the offending hand away. He bolted from the room.
"You started this. You can help fix this!" Bryan snapped at the guilty pair, completely forgetting the trouble he and Tala had caused just moments before. All 3 raced after an overly hyperactive blonde.

Tyson crept past the maze's exit. He'd finally managed to lose Ray inside after 15 minutes of wild chasing. He tiptoed towards the main garden and its fountain.
"Tyson!" A friend hailed him. He saw Lee, Gary, Ming-Ming, Mystel and Brooklyn seated near the fountain. Lee (the voice) waved him over. He shushed them.
"Shhhh! I'm hiding." he whispered after he crept over to them. He hid behind Lee and Gary.
"From who?" Brooklyn asked the question they all wanted answered.
"From Ray! He's chasing me." he whispered shortly. He strained to hear for any sign of Ray.
A sudden gasp gave him a bad, bad feeling. He turned and saw that the boy he was running from was standing right behind him. A predatory look glinted in his eyes.
He flipped over Gary and Lee's heads just as Ray pounced.
Lee managed to grab hold of the shirtless Ray. He moaned in horror when he suddenly say the tell tale ears, tail, teeth and claws.
He looked over at Tyson and his eyes widened. "Shit! Did he bite you?" he rasped out. Ray struggled in his grasp.
"Yes." Tyson said backing away from them tail twitching.
'Tail twitching?' he looked back and saw a navy blue tail swishing behind him. He lifted his hands and felt his head carefully. He had ears! And claws! And weird fangs!
"Noooooooooooooooooooo!!" he yowled with horror. Ray looked up. His eyes glowed with delight and he purred happily.
'My Mate.' he thought possessively. He struggled even harder in Lee's grip.
"Has he had alcohol?" Lee ground out as he held onto Ray. Gary helped him to keep the older boy pinned.
Tyson was to busy bemoaning his new features to hear him. "Yes." Tala replied, suddenly appearing out of nowhere.
"Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit, shit!" Lee swore. "I told you he wasnt allowed any Kai. Those tablets he has to take cause this when mixed with alcohol."
"Is there a cure?" Tyson interrupted Kai suddenly aware of what Lee had just said.
"Only if he mates with his chosen. And that would be you Tyson." Gary said slowly.
"Me! What did I do to deserve this?!" the blue-haired boy snarled.
"Who was the first person he saw after he collapsed?" Lee asked patiently.
"Me." Tyson gasped out bone white.
"You'd better start running then Tyson and pray that it will wear off." Lee stated calmly. "I can't hold onto him much longer."
"Nooooooooooo!!" Tyson yowled again and bolted just as Ray broke free. Tala, Kai, Lee and Brooklyn followed in hot pursuit of Ray as he chased after the blunette.
Gary, Ming-Ming and Mystel looked at each other confused.
Do you want me to continue?

Love you
