Chapter 3

Death

Rai's POV

I wake chained above the ground with my hands above my head spread apart along with my feet under me and spread apart. I resembled an X.

"Comfortable" I hear a voice say and Chase stepped out of the shadows. "Chase you annoying jerk, Kim's going to squash you" I chuckle. "Not if I

tell her I killed you" Chase chuckles smiling evilly. "You wouldn't do that to her" I say actually getting worried. "Of course I would, inside her id the

power to destroy the world" Chase states simply. "You don't understand, last time this happened she was messed up for months" I say pleading

for Kim. "Yes but that is only because you butted in. If she just had me she would be happy" he says. "She'll find me and when she does she'll

destroy you" I yell holding onto my last shred of hope. "I think not" Chase says revealing the Sphere of Death and the Star of Hanabi and set them

next to each other pointed at me. "Face it she's mine now and you will hang there until you die" Chase chuckles and walks out of the room. I let my

head drop. There was no hope now. A tear falls from my eye and more follow it.

Kim's POV

I wake in the cell I cried myself to sleep in last night. I get up to find a plate of food and a mug of what I guess is coffee sitting next to me. I

eat/drink the stuff and then I put them aside. "Good I see you are awake" I hear the unmistakable sound of Chase's voice say. I look up to see

him walking into the room. "Rai will find a way to escape from wherever you're keeping him!" I yell at him. "That would be hard seeing as he's with

the deceased now" Chase replies coldly. Something inside me breaks. "Rai's dead" I utter barely hearable. "Yes, I killed him" he says plainly as if it

was no big deal. "How?" is all I say. "I threw him into the volcano. Leaving him to die in lava as you and he did 3 years ago" he replies. I just sit

there. Was there a point in living without Rai? Yes there was one. My hand gently falls to my midsection. I would live for only one reason. "I see

you need time to take this in. I'll leave you" Chase says and then turns and walks out of the room.

Kris's POV

I wake the next morning to Jamie screeching about something. I turn to see her holding a note. My brain finally processes what she's saying. "The

boys have gone to rescue Rai and Kim on there own!" she yells. I'm up in an instant "Let's go!" I yell not caring that we're both in our pajamas. I

throw her, her bag of Wu and we wake Dojo.

When we land the scene horrifies us. Both boys are lying on the ground wounded and unconscious. Chase stands on his balcony and sneers at us.

"Have you two come to try and foolishly try to rescue your friends?" Chase chuckles. He's about to attack us when I hear a hollow but familiar voice

say "Stop". I turn and gasp, beside me Jamie also gasps. It was Kim only it wasn't. She looked broken, hollow, defeated. "Don't hurt them, let me

talk to them" Kim says to Chase who nods. "Kim what's happened to you? Where's Rai?" I ask. "Rai's dead" is all she whispers. I freeze. "Kim that

can't be true" I say. "It is he killed him" she says. I immediately know who. I whirl around and scream "You evil! How Could You! I OUTTA KILL YOU

MYSELF! GET DOWN HERE!" He jumps off the balcony and lands in front of me. "Is that a challenge" he hisses. "No they were just leaving" Kim

interrupts stepping between us. I was about to object when she looks at me. "Fine we'll go" I give in. "What!?" Jamie and I turn to see Omi and

Clay struggling to get up. We rush to their sides and help them. "We can not leave them they need our help" Omi grunts. Then he looks up into

Kim's eyes. I watch his go from anger, to surprise, then to sadness. "We shall go" he sighs. I help him back to Dojo and then I climb on. As we take

off none of us look back, not one of us looks back. We were afraid to look into Kim's eyes.

Chase's POV

I watch as Kimiko slowly walks back to her cell. She refused a room. She had taken the news very differently than I would have expected. Instead

of going into the blind rage that I needed she just shut down. There was something she was hiding. 'Or protecting' my inner self suggests. I would

figure out what she was protecting and destroy it.


Kim: Can anyone figure out my secret. It's not hard people, here are the clue's so far: 1. It's a big secret from Rai. 2. Her hand dropped to her midsection.

Me: Anyway I need to get off quickly so chats short at the moment

Me/Kim: REVIEW PLEASE!!!
