When the love has to end
Chapter 10
After those experiences in the street, Kai, ray and Hilary decided it was better to stop going out and start training seriously for the tournament.
The night before the tournament, Kai went outside alone while the others were sleeping. He needed some air. He needed to think. Suddenly, he saw something moving between the trees, and soon tala appeared.
"Why are you always following?" asked Kai, confused.
"don't ask. I came here because I know his plans, i heard him talking to your grand father."
"call him Voltaire."
"kay. The thing is that... he will be there tomorrow. To look for you. Don't go, Kai, don't let him get near Hilary either."
"Tala... I'm sorry, I can't be absent in this tournament."
"But Kai!"
"No, Tala. Forgive me, but I will go. I'll be fine"
…
THE NEXT DAY…
"AND, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WELCOME AGAIN TO THE NWB TOURNAMENT IN OTTAWA!"BEYBLADERS, WELCOME TOO AND GET READY TO LET IT RIP!"
"THANKS, BRAD, WE ARE HERE WITH THE BEYBLADERS, LET'S SEE WHAT WE'VE GOT!" –shouted Jazzman.- "IN THE FIRST PLACE, WITH THE TITLE OF THE LAST CHAMPIONSHIP, WE HAVE THE KNOWN BLADEBREAKERS! AND OPPOSITE TO THEM ARE THE GRIP FORCE TEAM, FROM FRANCE!"
"they don't seem so rude" said ray.
"Don't let your eyes be tricked by the appearances" pointed Kai, coldly. Hilary could see the fear in her eyes, he tried to be cold, like always.
"OK, WELCOME TEAMS, AND THE BLADERS ARE TYSON, FROM THE BLADE BREAKERS, AND MARIEU, FROM THE GRIP FORCE TEAM!" –said jazzman.
The battle was nearly short. Marieu's blade was finished soon, he wasn't pretty good.
Tyson went back with his team, and looked sarcastically to his team leader.
"well, the appearances tell a lot, don't you think?"
"jm."
"c'mon, your turn Kai, finish them."
Kai simply walked to the plate, and heard jazzman talking loudly.
"THE RUDE KAI FROM THE BLADEBREAKERS IS FIGHTING FRED, FROM THE GRIP FORCE TEAM!"
"you look strong, but you are not for me." Said Fred.
"you talk so much. Let's see what you can do in the plate."
"LET IT RIIIIIIIIIP!"
the battle started fast. Kai's blade was taking Fred's blade quickly off from the plate, Kai looked at the spinning dranzer and then… Kai put up his sight. He soon felt frozen, paralyzed, he couldn't give any more orders to dranzer because he couldn't speak. He had fear. A lot of fear. He saw Him.
Kai's eyes opened wide. He heard voices, calling him. Why hadn't he followed Tala's advice? He was sitting next to Voltaire, and the Demolition Boys were in front of them. Boris Balkov was looking directly to Kai's eyes, and so was doing Kai. Suddenly, the purple haired one passed softly his hand by his own cheek, and Kai, who understood completely the message, walked back. Tala was saying something like "don't loose control", but he didn't heard. Brad was also speaking, and his friends… Hilary cried a soft "Kai…"
"Kai! Please Kai!" shouted Tala, but he was stopped, by a hand on his shoulder, and a voice…
"don't stop him. I love seeing him fearing, and I wish he started to cry in this right moment." Said the man.
'Kai…'- thought the red haired.
….
Kai was feeling strange. Something soft was under him. Like a bed. He felt pain, in his left arm and all his body. He made an effort and opened his eyes, to see light. He was in a room like a hospital. The Bladebreakers were around him.
"what… happened?" asked the teen.
"Kai?" whispered his girlfriend.
"Kai, are you ok?" asked Ray.
"what happened? Who won the battle?"
"how can you think in those things man, just look at you!" said Tyson.
"But who won?" Kai insisted.
"Fred decided to cancel that battle." Explained Kenny.
"I see. – Kai slowly looked around and said…- where am I?"
"This is a little room for injured bladders." Said a woman voice.
"Who are you?" asked the boy, staring at the woman.
"I'm Krina Volkova, I will take care of you Kai. In the middle of the battle you fall to the floor and your friends called me. As for I know, you lost conscience when you looked at some place." Explained the nurse, "isn't it like that, Kai?" asked, patiently. She was tall, with long and black hair, and brownish eyes. She was wearing a white uniform.
"Y-Yes." Answered Kai, fearing to say something that could bring questions.
"Would you please leave the room for a few minutes?" asked the nurse to the other people. They did so, except from Hilary, of course, who didn't move from where she was sitting.
"Pardon, I have asked you to leave the…"
"I want her to stay here." Interrupted Kai, seriously.
"ok, ok. Kai, I'll ask you a few questions that you must answer, but first I want you to take off your shirt, because I need to check your heart beat while you answer."
"jm." Kai did what she wanted, and once again Hilary was looking at his perfect body.
The nurse walked to look for something, came back and placed a stethoscope and her hand in Kai's chest. Kai felt the chill, as every time someone touched him, harder when he or she was a doctor. Hilary knew that and grabbed his hand between hers.
"Ok… What did you saw that make you froze?"
"a person." Kai wasn't about to reveal his life details if there was no need to. He could continue answering like that.
"Was he a man or a woman."
"a man. I won't say his name."
"Please Kai, we have to interview that man to see what connections you have with him."
"I know exactly who is him, and I know exactly all the things he made me." Kai closed his eyes.
"Tell me Kai. –said Krina, seriously. – "Is it an order." –she said the last in russian. He had no longer heard those words in that language since the times he was in the abbey, in the same voice tone that his trainer said them many years ago.
Hilary looked as Kai closed his eyes strongly and tightened his hand. His pulse started to go faster, and faster, and faster…
"Kai, are you ok?"
"Don't worry he is ok." Said Hilary to the nurse. "Kai… calm down… nothing's gonna happen to you, I promise. Calm down please."
"Hilary… those words… were my trainer's…"
"no. Krina said them."
"Is she… russian?"
"Yes, I am." Said the woman. "Is the man russian. Is he, or was he, your trainer?"
"Yes. He was."
"Is He Boris Balkov?" Kai tensed his body, as the nurse pronounced his name.
"…y-yes, he is." Answered Hilary, knowing that was the best for Kai.
The nurse's eyes opened wide. She knew that man, and the sort of things he was able to do. But not enough as Kai did.
"ok…ok… now, tell me what kind of things he did to you, apart from the fear he caused you against him."
"…"
"Please Kai, you must understand, is for your own good"
"A lot, I mean, from punching, that was the most common one, to the worst, that was …. Eh …. Staying one day locked in a dark room, not eating or drinking without the daylight." Hilary knew he was lying.
After a few questions about his past in the abbey, in which Kai never said the complete truth, the nurse left the room.
"Hilary…" whispered Kai.
"Kai… grate battle… I understood what happened…"
"I wouldn't like to tell anybody… just… I don't know… they don't need to know."
"Ray and I will remain silent, but if you don't tell them, they won't be able to arrest Boris and your grandfather!"
"…"
