I have been so busy with my entrance test and another one is coming 3.5. AND I haven'r read a lot. But thanks to review from tanu I became happy and had energy to write two chapter in a row. I WILL WARN YOU RIGHT AWAY! In chapter 9, if you are UNDER 18, read only the start. Rest is at your own risk! Probably guess what it is if you have read this far already.

Let's jump in chapter 8! XD


Chapter 8: Hopeless?

'Did someone call an ambulance already?' Ray shouted Kai in his arms.
'It's coming,' Max replied when Walter, Dylan and Faith appeared. Kai gritted his teeth and pushed Ray suddenly off to stand up. Ray tried to stop him but everyone knew that it was useless.
'Don't! You are hurt,' Ray protested.
'I know that. Let go,' Kai yanked himself of Ray and Walter walked to them.
'I think you know what I'm going to ask. Who was it?' Walter spoke professionally.
'I... don't know. I didn't see his face,' Kai answered.
'How do you that it was a man?' Tyson asked.
'What do you THINK?!' Kai yelled.
'Oh, right,' Tyson apologized. Kai closed his eyes frustrated. This was literally enough. Kai pushed past Ray and Walter.
'Where are you going? You can't leave!' Ray yelled at him.
'I'm going for a walk if you must know that!' Kai was yelling through his teeth and left before anyone could say anything else.
'Jerk,' Tyson grunted himself but went to talk Max and Kenny. Paramedics had arrived and after being told what happened they said that Kai should go see doctor for any injuries even if he could walk. After that ambulance left and everyone were waiting Kai to come back since they had to go to the hotel pick their stuff and go to the airport. Max and Tyson were beyblading against each other with White Tigers and Kenny watching. Ray was gazing around for Kai but didn't see anything... at the moment.
'Ray?' Mariah asked: 'Worried?'
'Little bit. What if someone else jumps on him?' Ray replied quietly.
'You mean Mike and Sara. If they threaten Kai, I don't still think that they would do anything at this time of day,' Mariah spoke.
'You may be right...' Ray turned around suddenly.
'What is it?' Mariah whispered.
'It's her, Sara. She is near the trees,' Ray whispered. Mariah gulped and looked past Ray slowly. There she was. Beautiful girl with really long hair. Then she saw Walter near the police cars. There were paramedics as well.
'You have to tell them,' Mariah said.
'Who?'
'The police. It's serious,' she continued.
'I can't. What will happen to Kai if they know that police knows about them?' Ray protested.
'What will happen if you don't?' Mariah pointed out: 'It seems to me that Kai will get hurt all over again if police doesn't know it. They can protect him. Besides, cop is going to be with you when you are in America anyway.'
Ray sighed: 'I cannot take that risk Mariah,' Ray said and walked to others. Mariah looked at the police again sighing.
'Sorry Ray. If you aren't going to say it, I will,' she walked slowly towards the police making sure no one noticed it.


'Did you find anything?' Walter asked as he arrived to cars.
'Nothing showed in the cameras where rape happened,' Dylan answered.
'Nothing?' Walter repeated.
'Yeah. Security said that that camera was shut down and they have alibi. They didn't touch Hiwatari or shut down the camera but we don't know who did,' Dylan explained.
'First there was murder, rape attempt, Aiden's escape and now this. Oh and Mike and Sara. This doesn't look good. My boss a report and I don't have nothing to tell him. We are stuck,' Walter growled.
'Sir?' Faith tapped on Walter's shoulder. He turned around and saw girl with pink hair. She looked... scared? She was looking around like there was someone watching.
'Mariah, right. Is there something wrong?' Walter asked.
'Yeah,' Mariah whispered.
'Let's go inside the car,' Walter opened the door and Mariah went in as did Dylan and Faith.
'What is it?' Walter asked.
'My friend, Ray, told me that when you questioned Kai he... eavesdropped because Kai wouldn't have told anything and Ray wanted tp help him. But... when you and Kai left...' she trailed off.
'Take your time. What did he tell you?' Faith said.
'He saw Sara and Mike appear,' Mariah whispered. She knew that she was dojng the right thing but why was she scared?
Walter and Dylan gazed at each other and turned to Mariah.
'Did they speak?' Walter asked.
Mariah nodded: 'Yes. Ray said that they spoke about Kai's answers to you and that he lied...'
'We guessed that,' Faith stated.
'Sara added that if he would have told you the truth, Sir will kill him and everyone who knows about it,' Mariah continued despite Faith's interruption.
'Knows about what?' Dylan asked.
'I don't know. Apparently Kai knows something and they are threatening Kai with it and right now I saw Sara standing next to the trees and back then when winner was announced,' Mariah said.
'You said 'Sir' will kill him. Who is he?' Faith questioned.
'Ray thinks he might be Mike's and Sara boss or something,' Mariah recalled.
'One more thing. Why didn't Ray tell us this?' Walter wondered.
'Because he thinks that it puts Kai in risk. If either Sara pr Mike hear about his, they will kill him. It was Sir's ordered also. I thought that you should at least know about the situation. This is serious,' Mariah said. Walter thanked her and she left the car watching towards the woods and ran to others.
'This changes everything,' Dylan stated.
'Yes... It looks like we have another person to search for and it looks like criminal activity to me. We have to go to the America with Bladebreakers. One: I'm sure Aiden will go, two: we have to keep Kai save and get some answers and three: Mike and Sara will also follow him,' Walter decided.
'We have to find this Sir character as well,' Faith reminded.


It didn't take Kai for long to grab his jacket and arrive at the mansion. He opened the door and saw strangers.
'Who is this?' Tall girl with mid-long blond hair asked. She hand white high heels boots, blue jeans and long black shirt.
'Kai!' voice yelled and Kai watched how Anne wrapped her arms around hos legs.
'Lara? Do you know this vampire?' girl asked. A word 'vampire' struck Kai but he shrugged it off.
'Yes, This is Kai Hiwatari. Captain of the Bladebreakers. He is one of us now,' Lara explained.
'It looks like Marko fucked up yet again,' girl laughed. She didn't notice Kai's widened eyes. She grabbed Kai's hand and held it tightly.
'My name is Tina and to make one thing clear, Jack is my boyfriend. So, don't insult him,' Tina warned. Kai nodded and tried his best to hide his fear. Other vampire was introduced as Rick. He wore also black clothes and he had black short hair but not as black as Sir's. Then door opened again and Mike and Sara appeared.
'I hear Sara that you are babysitting again. Lucky you,' Tina teased.
'Shut up Tina,' Sara pushed past them and went upstairs.
'Going for big brother's lap again. What a bitch,' Tina laughed leaving.
'Okay. They don't get along very well,' Kai thought when Mike spoke.
'Why are you here? If I understand correctly, you have a flight to catch.'
'Yes but... how I can make sure that I won't kill anyone. Like Sara had said, I can't control myself yet,' Kai said.
'Sir knows that you know and that's why he asked Sara go with you and there are these,' Mike gave Kai five black bottles.
'Let me guess, there are blood in them,' Kai sighed and opened one: 'Yep, I was right.'
'Next one,' Mike said.
'Next one?' Kai stared at Mike.
'He knows that there is something else in your mind,' Anne said. Kai forgot her. She was still holding his legs.
'Let go,' Kai pushed the girl off and continued: 'Nothing.'
'Listen. I know you want to keep some things to yourself but in this family you can't do that,' Mike walked towards the stairs and pulled Kai with him.
'What do you mean?' Kai said as they reached upstairs near Sir's door.
'Just stop it,' Mike grunted. Kai could hear the anger in his voice.
'I suggest that you speak while you still can. We haven't told you yet but listen up. If you tell anyone about us or anything about vampires, we will KILL you and everyone you spoke or know. And if you lie to us, we'll kill you. Is that understood?' Mike pushed Kai to the wall.
'Yes,' Kai said quickly.
'I asked you a question. Why did you come here? It's not about the flight. Even if it was something small, you have to answer the questions we ask you. Open your mouth and spill it,' Mike let Kai go and spoke normally again.
'I know you and Sara have powers and other vampires too apparently. What are mine?' Kai explained.
'No one knows it. They will appear in time and you can't force it. I didn't get my powers during my first five years as a vampire. It took Sara seven years to get them. It will take time. Now, go to your friends. I think they are calling you again,' Mike said pointing at Kai's pocket. With that Kai left the mansion and ran to the hotel. His phone rang again but Kai didn't register it.
'What the hell was I supposed to do now? Five years. Seven? So I should just endure Jack and Marko until I get my own powers. I will get mad until then. What am I supposed to do? If I tell Mike or someone what they did to me, Marko and Jack will kill Tyson and others and if I don't tell them when they ask, they kill me,' Kai thought as he dropped to his fours. First time in years, tears dropped from his eyes. First time in years, Kai felt hopeless. His phone rang again and again in his pocket but still he ignored it. Kai didn't move until he felt the sun burn his hands. Kai moved under the tree and sat quietly.


Ray pressed Kai's number fifth time but he still didn't answer.
'Nothing?' Mr. Dickenson asked. Ray shook his head.
'Can you track the call Kenny?' Max asked. White Tigers had already left back to the village.
'I'm one step ahead of you. He's at... the hotel we were staying,' Kenny said.
'Let's go,' Ray said and buss drove to the hotel. The traffic police gave him a ticket for that.
'Kai! Where are you?!' Ray yelled when he saw Kai. He was sitting in the shadows. Everyone ran to him.
'Are you alright?' Kai asked but Kai didn't respond.
'We will get our stuff Ray. Stay here with Kai. Okay?' Mr. Dickenson said. Ray nodded and saw their bags being placed in the trunk. Looking around Ray didn't see anyone.
'Kai?' he whispered. Kai looked up frowning.
'Why are you whispering?' Kai asked.
'Because I know you are hiding something. You lied to the police and I saw them,' Ray said.
'Who?'
'Sara and Mike,' Ray had said it and saw Kai's expression change.
'I heard them talk about you. They said that if you tell anyone about something, they will kill you and those who know,' Ray whispered and peeked behind him.
'Ray knows I lied? He... He FUCKING stayed behind when Walter asked me questions about Mike and Sara but... then Walter and others must know I lied too,' Kai stood up and tried to walk past Ray but got his hands grabbed again.
'Let go,' Kai struggled but Ray kept him against the tree.
'Tell me. Am I right? Why are they blackmailing you?' Ray tried to keep his voice down but it became struggle as well.
'What if you are right? It won't change a thing. Unless you want to get killed ask me again. They WILL know immediately. THEY. ARE. WATCHING. MY. EVERY. MOVE,' Kai growled.
'When they come speak to me again and they will because of this. Guess what they are going to ask. What did you tell him? Why? When? What does he know and so on,' Kai pushed Ray off so hard he almost lost his balance. Ray stared at Kai with widened eyes. He could tell Kai was near the breaking point, unless he was already.
'Everything is going to be fine when you and everyone else will stop asking me questions. Please... stop it,' Kai said pleading.
'Kai never pleads! He won't give me or others answers and I know why. He's trying to protect himself and us. Well, there is one more thing I can do,' Ray thought. With quick love he hugged Kai and placed his mouth near his ear.
'It's okay. You are only trying to protect us and yourself. I won't ask again. I promise but promise me something,' Ray let go.
'What?' Kai asked.
'You will tell me without hesitation when they are trying to kill you. Promise?' Ray whispered.
'Ray... I can't. If would have opportunity tell you that, they would kill you for it,' Kai protested.
'It was worth to try. Good to know that you think us as your friends. Let's go,' Ray said and walked. Kai walked behind him but couldn't stop staring. Ray was definitely whispering because he thought Mike or Sara would be close.
'What is in that bag of yours?' Ray asked when he saw Kai carrying black bag which certainly wasn't with him when they arrived to China.
'Shut it,' was Kai's answer and he stepped on the buss. Ray sighed following others.


Sophia took her phone and drove back to their hiding place.
'Hi Aiden. They are now leaving to the airport. I have tickets to flight also. You have alias as Ethan Walker,' she said.
'Thanks. After you pick me up let's leave,' Sophia closed her phone and continued driving.


They arrived to the airport and waited Dickenson to get their tickets when Max spotted Walter.
'It's the cops... in civil clothes,' Max said.
'Are all three of you coming to America to catch Aiden?' Tyson asked.
'Yes. There is possibility that he will come to you Kai but my other subjects are staying here and continue on their own and call me when they find something,' Walter explained and they left to get their own tickets as Dickenson arrived.
'We only have to wait for couple of minutes and we go,' he said and sat down. Kai moved his eyes around and saw happy families going either vacation or turning back home. He saw kids eating big ice creams and other sweets. Kai never had eaten an ice cream because his grandfather didn't let him and now... it was too late.
'Thanks so much Marko,' Kai grunted when he spotted Sara. He hoped Ray didn't. He already knows too much. There was a call for their flight and everyone went into the plane.


There you! Kai is going to be in big trouble on chapter 9. Don't blame when I warned you :)
