Summary: Kai Hiwatari is forced to fight for his life in underground fighting rings. One night, Kai runs into an old friend when the police show up during a fight....Hilary. Boris ends up capturing her, and now she is forced to watch Kai suffer. Will she be able to free him?
I got this idea when I was baby-sitting my neighbor's kids....and watching them play Super Smash Brothers Melee on their GameCube....I know...it's sad! But I tell you...that game does something to you when you watch it for 3 hours straight!
This MIGHT be a Kai/Hilary story....but I'm not sure yet. It has plenty of Kai bashing/angst...all that good stuff.
It's going to suck...but oh well...I'm posting it anyway.
Chapter 1
A different world hides under the streets of Russia. A world were darkness is one's best friend, and greatest enemy. But among the darkness....a different threat lurks about. Under the snow covered streets, underground fighting rings reign supreme. Those involved are people from all ages, and countries. Most of these people are like slaves...forced to fight for their lives so that their masters might get rich off their skills. Like dogs, these people are kept in cages, and left in the shadows. Most die from hunger and malnutrition if not from their injuries.
Yet there are the fools of the earth that put their own lives at risk just for the sake of money. These people are free, they have no 'master'. They are skilled in the art of fighting, and stake it all on gambling.
The number of these fights have dwindled in the past years, most being stopped by police. That is why there are so few of these prized fighters left. Many are caught by the authorities, and either being free or captive, they are thrown in prison, or die in hospitals.
A fighter by the name Kai Hiwatari has grown up in this world, forced to fight for his life since he was small. At the current age of 18, he has made his captor incredibly happy...not to mention rich.
The evil man...Boris Balkov...is known for his prized fighter, yet it is unknown how the teen survives. Boris owns many fighters, most of which have died in the ring...but this young boy still finds a way to live. He is also one of the few that always escapes the police, making this man incredibly dangerous.
"I said fight damnit!" A dark voice sounded above the mad cheers of the crowd.
A blue haired teen stood motionless in the center of the ring, taking every blow his opponent gave him.
"Come on! I wanted to fight the great Hiwatari!" The man bellowed, repositioning himself in a defensive stance.
The teen just stood in place, his face cast down at his bare, dirty feet. Suddenly, crimson eyes looked upward, only to be greeted with a pair of glowing lenses in the dim twilight of the cavern. He knew that stare well...and knew he had to finish this fight.
"I'm....sorry...." The teen's worn out voice croaked.
"What was that?" The older man's gaze narrowed.
Suddenly, before the man could blink, the blue haired teen charged at him, sending him to the floor with one strong punch to the face.
The majority of the crowd cheered, while others sulked slightly.
"Thank you! Thank you!" Kai could hear Boris as he collected money from the spectators.
With a sigh, the teen turned, picked up his worn shirt off the railing and limped out of the arena.
Two strong arms grabbed the teen's body and held him steady as Boris made his way toward them, his long, dark trench coat flowing behind him.
"Another job well done young Kai." The elder Russian took the teen's chin in his hand.
Crimson eyes stared back lifelessly. These same eyes once held a fire of strength and determination, but that fire had long since faded.
Suddenly, shouts and screams were heard from deep within the cavern, and people began to run in all directions.
Boris cursed. "Let's get out of here!"
The police had arrived to break up this night's events.
Kai ran in a different direction from his captor, but knew he wouldn't get away from him. He held a collar around his neck, made of a strong metal that couldn't be unlocked. This collar tracked him step for step, so no matter how far he got, Boris would always find him.
The blue haired teen climbed a latter up toward the surface, struggling slightly as he lifted the manhole cover.
Carefully, he climbed out and stood in an alleyway. He cautiously peered around the corner of the building, looking for any signs of the authorities. If he got caught by them, he would surely die.
After he was sure it was clear, Kai darted onto the sidewalk, heading toward a black van in the distance.
Suddenly, he crashed into something and fell back against the pavement.
"Oh, I'm so sorry! Are you alri......" The voice stopped, gasping at the figure on the ground.
Kai stared at the stranger for a moment. Suddenly, his eyes went wide.
"K...Kai?!" The voice obviously belonged to a female.
The blue haired teen tried to move away, but it was too late. The stranger was at his side, helping him sit up.
"Oh my God Kai! What happened to you?!"
"Hil....Hilary?" His voice cracked slightly.
The girl stared into his lifeless eyes. Immediately, she felt tears pull at the corners of her ruby orbs as she stared at her old friend.
"What's happened to you?"
Suddenly, the two were pulled off the ground.
"Over here sir!" A gruff voice called.
Boris appeared in front of the two teens. "Well well well....I see you've run into an old friend young Kai."
"What should we do with her?"
"Take her with us...she'll come in handy when Kai decides he doesn't want to fight."
The two gasped, Kai's head snapping up to glare at the evil Russian....he knew what he was planning.
The two teens were thrown into a black van, which sped off toward the outskirts of town.
yeah.....I probably wasted my time posting this....but oh well please review and tell me if I should continue wasting my time
