I'm back! SO sorry for the gigantic wait! I'm taking a break from BCE and Trust No One for a while to update other stories, like this one!
This chapter is a little out there… dramatic… More dramatic than funny, but the funny will return. Please read and tell me what you think. No harsh comments though, please.
Last timeon Me, Myself and Kai:
"Good times, good times." Tala mumbled. Why was I remembering that again? Who cares, but the moral of this story is… you can run in front of Kai or you can get dragged behind him, either way, you're gonna get caught.
"Is he o.k.? He looks kind of spaced out?" the redhead barely heard a feminine voice say.
"Yeah, he just does that sometime. It's kind of hard to explain why." Kai informed.
"Yeah, but you better be able to explain why you're in my backyard!" they heard a male voice say. Tala turned around 'just in time' to see a gun been pointed in his face.
Maybe I'm just unlucky.
Now:
"Whoa!" Tala yelled, hiding behind Kai. "We didn't do anything!"
"What ch'all doin' in my backyard!?" a man with braided black hair demanded cocking his silver pistol to the side, now aiming it at Kai.
"Um…" Kai tried to think of a way out. He was usually good at that, but right now, nothing came to mine. He started sweating, as the dark brown eyes of the man seemed to peer straight into him.
"They came for the football game." Came a female voice. Mariah had stepped out from the glass slide-door, but the boys were so scared they didn't notice. "Calm down, Keith. They're my… opponents. They probably didn't know where the football field was and decided to come ask, right boys?" she asked, hoping her step daddy didn't recognize Tala's face.
"Mariah, ain't dis dat redheaded boy dat dumped you?" the pinkette's smile faded as her hopes were crushed. "Da one dat you said, if I eva saw 'em I should kill 'em?"
She her frown turned into a scowl. "Yes, but… he's only here so I can crush his team when we play football." She said, trying not to show the glimmer of hurt in her eyes.
"You mean so we can crush them." Arura corrected while jumping over the open gated fence like Kai did only a few minutes ago.
"You know her?" Kai asked without thinking, he always does that when there's a girl he likes around.
"What do you care!?" Arura shot, making Kai shrink back. It also made him realize who he was.
Suddenly, he re-gained his Kai-ness and cleared his throat. "Actually, I don't care. I was just wondering." That made sense… Kai thought to himself sarcastically.
"Well, ya'll need to get up out of my yard!" Keith bellowed putting his pistol safely back in the front of his pants and under his shirt. "I already need to put Red over here six feet under." He said pointing to Tala. "Git!" he yelled making the boys run fast out of the fence.
"So, what now?" Tala asked when they seemed far from the house. Kai looked thoughtful, but before he could come up with anything a hot pink Mustang pulled up beside them. The window was rolled down.
"You boys comin'?" asked the pinkette under the wheel. "Football games aren't really me, let's have some real fun." She smirked devilishly.
"We'd love to, bu--"
"We'd love to!" Kai cut Tala off upon seeing his crush sitting in the passenger seat. Tala glared at Kai as the two-toned haired boy pulled him into the back of the car.
Kai and Tala both breathed in an air of excitement mixed with nervousness, as the car grew quiet. Neither of them knew where they were going or what to say. It was also surprising that Mariah was quiet. All that was heard was the wind hitting the car and the wheel on the road. The guys glanced at each other. Kai gave Tala the 'you talk first look'. The redhead rolled his eyes. They couldn't see, but both girls had a maniacal smirk on their faces.
"So…" the blue eyed Russian started. "Where are we going?" The only response he got was Mariah pushing down on the gas petal causing the aerodynamic car to accelerate. "What the--, Mariah slow down." Glancing in her mirror the pinkette was thrilled to see the tense and terrified expressions on the Russians' faces. The wind whipped the car even harder as Mariah pressed down on the petal more.
"Slow your ass down, you stupid furball!" Kai finally shouted after trying keep his cool… with no avail. They didn't know why Mariah was doing this, it was probably for no reason, most of the things she did was purely for her pleaser. "I'm warning you!" Kai yelled, making Mariah accelerate even more.
"Where are we going!" Kai shouted over the blasting music Arura had just turned on. Piece Of Me by Britney Spears came on.
I'm Miss American Dream since I was 17
Don't matter if I step on the scene
Or sneak away to the Philippines
They're still gonna take pictures of my derriere in the magazine
You want a piece of me?
You want a piece of me...
Mariah and Arura sang as loud at they could with the song which seemed to be on full blast, drowning out the guys' yells and cursing. The pinkette looked in the mirror to see both the boys yelling. "What? What's that Tala? Talk louder!" she yelled and then followed up with a laugh.
"Your girlfriend's gonna kill us!" Kai finally screamed at Tala. The two-toned haired boy hid it well, but he seriously thought he was about to die that day.
I'm Mrs. Lifestyles of the rich and famous
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Oh my God that Britney's Shameless
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. Extra! Extra! this just in
(You want a piece of me)
I'm Mrs. she's too big now she's too thin
(You want a piece of me)
"What?!" Tala bellowed, pointing to his ear. He was also about to piss his pants.
"I said," Kai took a deep breath. "YOUR GIRLFRIEND IS GONNA KILL US!" he yelled as loud as he could. Not only Tala heard it, but Mariah's acute hearing picked it up as well.
Skeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt. The car skidded to an immediate stop nearly yanking Kai and Tala out of the seatbelts while also strangling them. The music stopped at the same time.
"WHAT THE--"
"I am not, I repeat, NOT, his girlfriend!" Mariah cut Kai off. Her searing golden orbs glaring at him from inside the mirror. "Know what? Get out of my car, NOW!"
The Russian's glanced at each other before scrambling out of the car. "With pleasure!" the redhead exclaimed after he was a safe distance away.
"See ya tonight, babes!" Arura shouted out the window. Both girls broke into a wild laughed as Mariah sped away.
Silence… neither of the boys really knew what to say. Well… Kai doesn't stay speechless for long. "That scared the piss to my feet!" the redhead just looked at him. Then he realized where they were.
"Hey, she dropped us off back at the mansion!" Kai turned around to see the colossal sized gate at the entrance.
"Wow. I don't think I can move my legs." Kai stared blankly at the gate and the long path up to the mansion.
3 Minutes Later
"…That was kinda fun though." Tala chuckled upon having a flashback of what just happened. "Mariah's so crazy." He smiled to himself. Kai came to a sudden halt. Tala stopped too. "What's wrong?" Kai just stared at him in disbelief. "What?!" the blue eye teen asked confused.
"First off, if you think nearly getting painfully decapitated by a seat belt was… fun, then you better never complain about anymore of my ideas and secondly," dramatic pause. "You still like her, don't you?"
"No I-"
"Don't lie to me, Tala." Kai said firmly his crimson eyes searching ice blue ones. "Your eyes can't lie to me. You do don't you? Why'd you break up with her… really?"
Tala's head dropped. He tried to search for words, but none came at the moment. "Can we… talk about this later?"
Kai sighed and they began walking in silence again. "I wonder what Arura meant when she said 'see you tonight'."
"Her and Mariah must have another surprise waiting for us… tonight." Tala looked up at the mansion that wasn't far now. "Why do we always end up walking up here after our most exhausting adventures?"
"Oh no." the phoenix moaned as a baby blue BMW and a black Escalade came into view. "My parents… Walk straight pass them and don't say a word." Kai ordered and Tala nodded. Why the heck are they still here? Kai thought irritated.
They walked in and there his parents were, still sitting with Voltaire and Ray, Max, Bryan and Tyson. Enrique left to go to some art show with Oliver in Paris. Laughter rang out in the room as soon as they walked in.
"You guys were so cute when you were little… what happened?" Bryan joked gesturing to a book… photo album.
Crimson eyes flashed with radiating anger as Kai just glared at the scene. "What's wrong, sweetie?" LaKaiara asked.
"Yeah, come on Kai! You should really see your bare butt pictures, they're hilarious!" Tyson laughed while waving the said picture in the air.
Kai took a deep breath and tried to turn away, but he couldn't, not this time. Rage rose in him and all Hell was about to break lose. Calm down, Kai… he tried to cool himself down. Count to ten, just count to ten…
"Sweetie?" his mom pressed on.
His father sat back with an unnoticed smirk. That's it LaKaiara, keep being motherly. He thought mockingly.
I'm about to kill someone. The enraged phoenix thought balling and un-balling his fists. 10… 9…
"Kai, why didn't you tell us you were a model?" Tyson just couldn't shut up.
8… 7… he counted in his head.
Images of his childhood flashed through his head. Being torn away from a teary-eyed Tala just so he could be ignored by his negligent mother at whatever house she was living in at the moment. 6…5… He remembered crying all night while his dad and his girlfriend of the month argued drunkenly all threw his large hotel room. Kai had hid in a cabinet. 4…3… He bit his tongue when he remembered how good he felt when he got back to Voltaire; it maddened him because he hated Voltaire with a fiery undying passion. He wanted one of the very people who had hurt him so much in his life. That's just how bad he hated his parents. 2…1…
"SHUT UP!" he bellowed with every ounce of feeling he had. Rage had taken over, fury consumed him. He held back all these years and he didn't know if he could anymore. "I HATE YOU! I HATE ALL OF YOU! STAY OUT F MY LIFE!" his face was red and seemingly turning purple. "Get out…" he hissed through his teeth at his "friends". His breathing was out of control. He felt a lump in his throat and a heavy pain weighing down on his chest. Thoughts of homicide ran through his head as he glanced from his mother to his father to Voltaire and then at his retreating friends.
After the gang has walked out of the door his father stood, smirking on the inside. All according to plan. "Son-"
"I AM NOT YOUR SON! I WAS NEVER YOUR SON!" Furious muffled screams rose in his throat. He couldn't stop breathing wildly. A swift hand swept a vase of flowers of a small pillar and crashed to the tile floor.
"Kai, let's just talk." Voltaire said calmly, knowing his grandson's temper tantrums even though he hadn't had one in a while.
"I DON'T WANT TO TALK! I WANT TO KILL!" he snarled through his teeth while pulling at his hair. "WHY WON'T YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE?!" His father's inward smirk deepened.
"Kai," his worried mother had now realized how serious this situation was and backing up. "Put it down." Kai didn't know what she was talking about and he didn't really care at the moment.
"I thought you got him some meds for this." He couldn't believe what had just came out of his dad's mouth. No, strike that, he could, because his dad was a cold, heartless bastard who treated everything like dirt. How he wished he had a gun or a knife or something so he could just lash out on someone. ANYONE. It was only then that he noticed the warm liquid seeping from his hand. He had grabbed a rather large fragment of the vase.
"Kai…" called a soft and loving voice. But before Kai could think he swiped the glass across his best friend's face, leaving a gash. Tala just stood there, shocked and confused as to what had just happened. He felt warm liquid leaking from his cheek.
"Tala…" Kai whispered apologetically. He dropped the glass and ran out the room in rage and frustration.
Ice blue eyes followed him until he was out of sight, still lost…
So, what did you think? Over the top? Not enough rage? Confusing? Good? I have to know!
