Chapter Nine: The Big Boss
*Kim's P.O.V*
It was...MR. TAKIMURO?! My jaw dropped at the sight of his face. Mr. Takimuro was the man in charge of the NYKC! I felt as if I had stopped breathing. He smirked down at me.
"Surprised to see me?" He asked evilly. My surprised expression switched to an intense glare. Was this guy insane or something?
"I'll admit, I didn't see it coming." I confessed coolly I snorted out a laugh. "Just one question: Why?" I questioned. He crossed his arms, staring down at me intently. Okay, I don't get scared easily, but this guy was just plain creepy.
"This year was supposed to be LEGENDARY. It was to be the first year where two dojos from the same city were excepted into the NYKC. You and that Jackson fellow were to make history! I was so excited about it, that I even placed bets on who was going to win! When you backed out, do you know how much money I lost? I lost ONE-THOUSAND DOLLARS on you! Yours and Jack's fight was supposed to be epic and thrilling! None of those other Black Dragons were good enough to take your place! You ruined EVERYTHING!" He shouted. I raised my eyebrows. Okay, he's got a point there.
"I'm sorry that you stupidly bet on me, causing you to lose your money and i'm sorry that there won't be some huge, epic fight for people to watch, but I found where my true home is. It wasn't with those stupid Black Dragons. It is with the Wasabi Warriors." I apologized. His face remained stone hard. "Also, if you still are allowing the Black Dragons to be in the competition, wouldn't it still be legendary?" I continued.
"Having those wimps in my competition won't make it legendary YOU were supposed to be this amazing fighter! YOU RUINED EVERYTHING!" He screamed. "We also hardly ever get any girls signed up for the competition. You stupid blonde." He spat. Fire blazed within me. Oh no he didn't! Anger overwhelmed me. I couldn't think straight.
"That's it!" I yelled, swiping my foot into his legs, knocking him to the ground. I jumped up to my feet and dashed for the nearest door. I quickly swung open the door, missing the word 'ROOF'. I then screamed the first name that came to my mind.
"JACK!"
*Jack's P.O.V*
The tires of Rudy's van screeched to a halt as we all jumped out, hugging Eddie to death. We all showered him with questions. My eyes widened as I noticed the absence of a certain blonde.
"EVERYBODY QUIET!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. All their mouths snapped shut as they turned to face me. "Eddie, where is Kim?!" I asked, worry and fear clear in my voice. He dropped his gaze to his feet.
"Only one of us could escape. She told me where to go then ran off to get the kidnappers off my trail. I had to go get help! If there was a way for both of us to escape, we would have done it! I'm so sorry." He replied shakily, fighting back tears. I placed a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"It's okay, Eddie. At least you were able to escape and find us." I comforted. He gave me a weak smile.
"Do you remember where you were being held at?" Milton asked as we all piled back into the car. Eddie nodded, pointing further down the road. After only a few short minutes of driving, Eddie pointed towards an old, abandoned building.
"In there." He whispered. We hid Rudy's van behind some trees. After filing out of the van, we silently made our way towards the building. A bone-chilling scream made us all jump in worry.
"JACK!" A female voice screamed. My eyes went wide. I recognize that voice.
"Kim.." I choked out.
"RUDY! SOMEBODY, HELP!" She screamed again. It sounded like it was coming from the roof.
"She's up there! She's on the roof!" Jerry yelled, pointing towards the roof. I spun around to face Eddie.
"Eddie, how do we get up there?!" I shrieked. Please hang on, Kim! He paused, squeezing his eyes shut, as if trying to remember the layout of the building. His eyes snapped back open.
"Through those doors, straight down the hall and up the stairs! I don't know where to go from there!" He replied. I nodded as I burst through the double doors. A large man ran towards me. I swung at me, nailing him right in his jaw. I sickening crack sounded. That'll hurt in the morning!
I raced down the hall and up the stairs with Eddie, Rudy, Jerry, and Milton right behind me. As we reached the second floor, I continued down another straight hallway. It led to a dead-end with about twenty more men waiting by it, guarding a door that said 'ROOF'. I cursed under my breath.
"Take care of these guys. I'm going after Kim!" I demanded throwing some of the guys out of my way. Eddie, Milton, Jerry, and Rudy immediately got into their fighting stances and fought against the men. I pounded up steps leading to the roof and swung open the last door. A bleeding and bruised Kim was fighting an enraged Mr. Takimuro. My blood boiled at the sight of Kim's injuries. How dare they hurt MY GIRL?! My fists clenched.
"Kim! Get away from her you creep!" I growled. His head snapped up towards me as I charged towards them. With one hard shove, he pushed Kim behind him. She tumbled and rolled to the edge of the building. A knife was sticking up out of the floor of the flat roof. She grasped onto it for dear life as her waist down dangled off the two-story building. My heart started racing.
"Hold on, Kim!" I yelled as I angrily lunged at Mr. Takimuro. NO ONE hurts my girl and gets away with it!
*Kim's P.O.V*
"RUDY! SOMEBODY, HELP!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. I was currently standing on the flat, gravel roof of the building. The door to the roof slammed from behind me. I turned to see a furious Mr. Takimuro, breathing heavily.
"I'm really going to enjoy this!" He spat, raising the knife he had cut me with only moments ago. My eyes widened. My shoulder blade had mostly gone numb from loss of blood. He advanced towards me, but I kicked the knife out of his hand. It flew up into the air and stabbed into the gravel roof a few feet from the edge. I fought for my life. I need a miracle!
"Kim! Get away from her you creep!" Jack's strong voice growled. I felt my knees start to go weak as I looked over at my hero. Suddenly, I felt something hard shove into my bleeding shoulder. The pain caused me to lose my balance and fall backwards. I rolled and tumbled uncontrollably until my legs dangled off the edge of the building. My hands desperately clawed at for whatever I could hold onto. My hands reached the knife. I held onto it for my life. If I fell, I would become a lovely little splatter on the concrete below.
"Hold on, Kim!" Jack yelled. After listening to what sounded like Jack and Mr. Takimuro fighting, a shiny, black shoe swung towards the knife I was holding. The knife lost its grip on the roof, causing me slide further off the roof. My hands clasped the rain gutters. Please don't let me fall! Please don't let me fall!
"Jack!" I cried out. I heard a yelp and the sound of a body collapsing onto the roof. I gulped. Please don't tell me that was Jack! What happened next scared me even more. What sounded like metal snapping came from the rain gutter I was holding onto. It fully snapped, causing me to fall along with it.
"Jack!" I screamed again, this time, more urgently. A warm hand wrapped around me wrist. I looked back up into the eyes of my one and only love, Jack Brewer. Sobs escaped my lips as he pulled me back onto the roof. I cried into his shirt. He stroked my hair while wrapping his arms protectively around me.
"Kim.." He whispered into my hair. I looked back up at him, tears streaming down my face. He wiped them away with his thumb. "I love you. I have loved for quite some time now! Ever since I caught your apple with my foot, you're all I ever think about. I was always jealous when guys like Brody, Ricky, Brad, and Brett caught your eye or you caught theirs. That letter I wrote you before I went to the Otai Academy was filled with every little detail of my undying love I have for you! After almost losing you, I couldn't risk never telling you how I feel about you! I know you probably don't feel the same way, but I just-" he said until I cut him off with a kiss. He froze at first, but almost instantly kissed back. We broke apart for air, resting our foreheads against each other.
"I love you too, Jack. I always have and I always will." I replied, smiling. He smiled from ear to ear. We then kissed again. Fireworks went off in my head. I felt like I was right where I was meant to be: in the arms of my best friend and true love, Jack Brewer.
Whoa. That had to be the most intense chapter I have EVER written! Hope it was worth the wait! So sorry I haven't updated in awhile, you know it's kind of hard. Anyways, did you see that coming? I didn't think so!
I have also noticed that I have only written about Kim's fight scenes. I will definitely try to do more fights with the others...sorry about that...
