Chapter four
The four teens stood staring at Boris in disbelieve how was that possible Tala, Bryan and Kai knew only too well that Kai's parents had died. So it was impossible for Kyle to be Kai's brother because he was only eight years old, also Voltaire had no other Children apart from Kai's father.
" Your lying" Kai said coldly " my grandfather only had one child and that was my father. And he died not long after I was born" Boris laughed coldly shacking his head.
" Kai I thought you knew your grandfather better than that. He has the worlds most skilled scientists here, all we simply needed was an egg from your mother and semen from your father, to grow our very own child." the four teens looked at Boris in a mix of horror and anger.
" You're sick, how could anyone do such a sad thing like grow a child?" Ray said growling in anger. " Dose he know he's a project, an experiment?" anger burned in Rays narrowed eyes, he was losing control and wanted nothing more than to punch Boris so hard he'd never forget it.
Kai was silent his eyes were wide, all his life he thought Boris and his Grandfather mad but now…he knew they truly were mad. The words I have a brother raced in his mind over and over again. Yes he had a brother with the same blood that ran through Kai's veins, but there was one difference Kai was born and created in love by his parents. But Kyle was just created…grown in a lab and Boris had more than likely told the boy all sorts of lies about where he came from or who his parents were.
" Well…" Ray growled balling his hands into fists. " Dose he know…answer me you sick freak" Boris was silent staring at them with a mad smile on his face. Bryan and Tala grabbed their cellmates firmly in case they tried something stupid, Ray tried pushing Bryan away but the other boy wasn't having it and stood his ground firmly. Kai didn't even react to Tala's touch his wide eyes were glazed and the red head could feel the other boy tremble slightly.
" Get away from me " Kai's voice was quiet and deadly calm.
" What did you just say" Boris snapped angry at the blue haired boy's tone of voice and disrespect.
" I said get away from me, you sick fucking freak" Boris looked as if he was ready to strike Kai, he didn't however much he wanted too because the chamber doors swung open admitting one abbey guard and a squirming child being held roughly by his shirt.
The boy was short and had really dark spiky blue hair, his eyes were dark forest green and he was dressed in a plain black T-shirt and dark blue baggy combat pants, he also had a black cloak resting on his shoulders.
The child was too busy struggling under the guard's hard grip around his waist to notice Boris or the six teens that occupied the cells, though Spencer was still not back yet and his teammates were growing more and more worried by the minute.
" Ah…speak of the devil " Boris smirked, hearing the directors voice the boys head shot up and his green eyes narrowed.
" The little brat thought, he could get passed us at the gate, sir but we caught him" the guard said proudly and the boy rolled his eyes.
" Please…if that gate hadn't been so icy I'd be long gone, you fat moron," the child said not even flinching under Boris' piercing glare.
" Will you just shut up, brat?" the guard growled rubbing his head with his free hand
" Oh…I'm sorry am I giving you a headache," the child drawled sounding bored.
" ARRGH…just shut up"
" No…I don't think I will"
" Then I'll make you shut up," the guard argued back, the six teens and Boris watched as the grown man and the child argued glaring at each other. If they hadn't just found out about Kyle's parentage and if Boris wasn't present the scene would have been very funny.
" ENOUGH!" Boris yelled finally losing his patience with the arguing pair, his eyes narrowed dangerously and the two shut up straight away although Kyle showed the director no respect and just glared at him.
" Kyle you've been a very naughty boy and so you will stay in here until Voltaire arrives." Boris said sternly and coldly.
" Great…just great. I'm sure to have a good time" Kyle said sarcastically on the outside he seemed perfectly calm, but inside he was so scared he didn't want to see Voltaire again. Not after the last time the old man visited and Kyle ended up being looked after by the Demolition boys for two weeks because he had been beaten so badly. " Can I stay in the empty cell?" Kyle asked looking hopeful.
" No you can stay with Tala and Kai…now in you go" Boris said opening the door and shoving the boy inside, once the director had locked the door he gave the child one last look and left smirking to himself.
~*~
" What's wrong Tala, why do you keep looking at me like that?" Kyle asked, it had been twenty minutes since Boris left and ever since then Tala and the other boy Kai had been giving him funny looks and he didn't like it one bit.
" Err…nothings wrong really, but you should start trying to stay out of trouble" Tala said sternly.
" Hey …lighten up a bit will ya, oh. I almost forgot" Kyle said reaching into the bag he had hidden under his cloak and producing four Beyblades. " Here I rescued them before they were destroyed or hidden away from you" he handed over Tala's Wolborg blade.
" Thanks kid" Tala smiled as he looked over his blade relief flooding through him, it felt good to have his blade back.
" No problem, it was fun getting past all the security mechanisms, old Boris put up," he said puffing out his chest.
" Drop the mask Kyle, I know you better then this" Tala said, he knew the boy was scared and upset about Voltaire coming over and no matter how hard he tried to hide his emotions, Tala always saw throught his mask. In fact Kyle was, even if he didn't resemble Kai in looks, they were both alike in attitude and strength.
" I don't know what your babbleing on about," Kyle said but even as he did Kai and Tala saw his mask breaking, as tears welled up in his eye and he tried holding back a sob.
" I need to think" Kyle muttered to himself and pulled out a dark red Beyblade, he set it up and launched it onto the cold stone floor and did nothing but watch it spin.
Tala could now see, that after what Boris had told them minutes ago. Weren't that different from each other and maybe that's why Tala, himself has taken to the child so quickly after they first met. Kai and Kyle had a lot in common for one spining his blade always helped Kai to think.
' Something's going on I know it. I mean I'm not being paranoid Am I.'
Kyle thought watching his blade, and so he wasn't in the least bit surprised when the bit chip on his blade glowed dark red, it took as a sigh that his Bit Beast didn't think he was being paronoied.' Tala and the others are hiding something from me, and I intend to find out what'
he was staring at his blade intently as these thoughts raced through his mind. He didn't noitce the other two teens glaring at each other.{I think you should let it be, for a time at least}
a cool voice said inside his head.' Why?'
Kyle thought back.{I'm not sure yet, but I know I'm right so let it be, for now}
' Fine…fine I'll let it be, for now anyway'
Klye said crossing his arms in defeat and he heard one chuckle from the voice before it disappeared.' Hey B, come back'
Kyle thought using the nickname he used for his Bit Beast.{Yes, what is it?}
There was a slight hint of worry in his voice.' Thanks'
Kyle thought smiling to himself.{For what?}
Kyle chuckled hearing the confusion in his voice' For stoping me from most likely doing something stupid or dangerous'
{It's okay can I go now?}
The voice asked." Yes, yes you can go now, B." Kyle said out loud, not realising he'd done so.
" Whom are you talking too?" a cool voice said, Kyle turned to look at the teen he didn't know and shrugged.
" Myself" he said holding out his hand, his blade retuned to his hand. " Who are you?" Kyle asked merrily his green eyes twinkling.
" Kai Hiwatari"
" How weird my names Kyle Hiwatari, do you think we're related?" he asked bouncing on the balls of his feet with that air of innocent curiosity children always seem to have, and besides Kyle had always wanted an older brother.
Kai didn't answer he really wanted to belive this child was his brother, but before he told the boy anything he wanted proof and that would have to wait untill they got out of the abbey, If indeed they ever did.
~*~
" I still can't belive what that sick freak did" Ray muttered sitting down next to Bryan.
" I know how you feel, but we can't tell Kyle about any of this. If indeed he is Kai''s brother then we should have a D.N.A test done to make sure. If we ever get out of here" Ray leaned back against the wall and sighed.
" You and Tala really like the kid, don't you?" Ray asked creaking an eye open and peering at the violet-eyed boy.
Bryan laughed quietly making Ray smile he'd never heard Bryan laugh or show any sort of emotion but when he did, you could see the change from his cold demeanour and no one would believe the Chinese teen if he told them Bryan was okay to get along with and wasn't the cold uncaring person he made himself out to be.
" He's slyer than Ian and can be colder than even Kai and Tala put together and he's the most sarcastic little kid I've ever met, but yeah I like him, in fact I more than like him I love him like the little brother I never had. So do the others" Ray felt his heart flutter as he listened to Bryan talk with so much emotion in his voice the Chinese boy could practically feel it himself.
" He sounds like Kevin and I reckon they'd get along great" Ray chuckled, and then fell silent as he remembered that he might never see his friends again. He pictured all their faces in his minds eye he could see them, smiling, laughing and just plain being happy. He smiled sadly exposing cat like fangs.
" Are you thinking about your friends?" Bryan asked watching the golden-eyed teen as he nodded his golden eyes diming a little with saddnes. " Don't worry you'll see them again. I promise you that I'll help you get out of here Ray Kon and then maybe you can forgive me for what I did" Bryan looked in the Chinese boys golden eyes and Ray knew he meant what he said.
Ray shivered suddenly feeling cold he rubbed his hands up and down his arms in a attempt to create a little warmth, his attempt to gain warmth failed as the chamber grew colder and the night waned on.
" I'm going to get some sleep" Bryan said and flopped onto the straw bed.
" Yeah, I'm feeling pretty tired myself" agreed the golden-eyed boy and he lied down on the hard, cold floor of their cell and closed his eyes. He couldn't however much he tired get comfortable as the hard floor hurt his back and with no blanket he began felling colder.
" Ray" Bryan said softly
"Hmm " came the sleepy reply.
" You can lie next to me if your not comfortable, plus it would generate a little warmth." Bryan was thankful it was dark because it hid his blushing cheeks from the Chinese teens eyes. Ray said and did nothing for a few moments, he was a little unsure but in the end he decided it would be more comfortable and a little warmer. He moved over to the straw bed and lied down next to the blushing Russian.
" Thanks Bryan, I apreciate it" Ray smiled and closed his eyes.
" Don't mention it" Bryan whispered watching the Driger master with his own little smile and then he too closed his eyes and drifted off into sleep.
