(Previously for Kai + Kleo's journey:
Kleo looked up at Kai, and stared deeply at her, it was strange how it all came together, they both inched closer as if they both knew what was going to happen next, and their lips touched, turning into a passionate kiss, Kai went to open his mouth, when suddenly he briskly pulled back as if he had just done something wrong.
-"I can't...Kleo you aren't seeing the real me...." Kai snapped.
"Kai..." Kleo was saddened by Kai's out rage.
"Good night Kleo.." And with that Kai turned away, angry at him self, and went to his tent.
"Everyone would like the new Kai better!" Kleo shouted, "Fine then, continue being Mr. Sour-pants, it suits you well!" She screamed in furry, and her echo roared over the plains as she sobbed, and fell to her knees, she was now really sorry for her self.
Kai just ignored Kleo's anger, and disappeared into his tent, not saying anything for the rest of the night.)

(continuing Kai + Kleo's journey)
*Day 3*
Kai had avoided Kleo most of the previous night, as well as during the whole day. Kleo flustered, upset, and confused, she didn't know what to do with what had come between them last night. The 'kiss', how it happened was clear in her mind. Did he hate her? Did she kiss wrong? She longed to hear his voice, but he refused to speak. He shut her out, a few times, almost causing Kleo to shed tears. Sometimes Kleo wished he wasn't so self- absorbed. Why? Why did he have to be so kind on the inside, now Kleo was wishing she had never met the Kai inside. She..had fallen in love with that Kai.. Kai was thinking of the previous night too. How could he let himself do that, now he had hurt Kleo. He demanded himself, not to let his emotions for Kleo, tangle up in hers, he didn't want any feeling. Shutting her out was the only way. If only she could see, why he had shut her out. If only he could let his feelings run out of control, but if he did that, he would eventually fall weak. He couldn't let that happen. Kai knew Kleo was watching him throughout the day, he wanted to explain, but felt it would be best to say nothing.
It was mid-afternoon, the winds were picking up, and the clouds were becoming dark. Both at the same time looked up at the sky as rain began to pour, harshly to the ground. Almost instantly the land began to flood, puddles turned into small pounds, then soon in a matter of 20 mins, a force like a raging river formed from the muddy rain.
Finally Kai yelled, "We need to find cover!" He grabbed Kleo by the wrist as they began to run. Although with no tree's in sight, they didn't know how long it would be before they could find a dry area.
Kleo staggered to keep up, with his strong grip, and his powerful run.
"Keep up!" He snarled at her. Kleo tried, and she tried hard, but soon, it was becoming hard for her to breath. The running, and cold freezing rain, was taking her breath faster.
"Kai.." She tried to call out to him, but he just kept running, and tugging her along.
Soon they reached, a flowing river, they would have to cross it, Kai began to walk in, it was instantly knee deep and growing deeper.
"C'mon Kleo!" Kai barked at her, as he began to swim across.
Still gasping, and holding her arms to keep warm she began to enter the water. She didn't realize how deep it was until it was too late.
Kai had crossed it easily, but when he glanced back, Kleo was too tired to make a powerful swim, and she had disappeared beneath the water.
"Kleo!" He shouted, no answer returned his shout. Kai now panicking, returned to the water, he dove in, diving into the murky depths of the raging water. With no avail he surfaced to the raging storm above, the cold hard rain whisked on his face, he took in a deep breath and submerged once more.
This time when he surfaced, Kleo was over his left shoulder, he kicked hard, to get out of the water. Kai, then quickly took Kleo to the nearest cave he could see, (A good two minute run) One in the dry cool cave, he laid her down on the hard ground, he check to see if she was breathing, she wasn't.
"Kleo!" Kai tried to wake her....nothing... "Kleo, you can't leave me!" He found himself shouting out loud.
Realizing there was no other option, Kai cleared her air way, and put his mouth over hers, preforming CPR. It only took a few seconds to revive her.
Kleo spat out a bunch of water and began to cough violently. That's when she noticed Kai huffing beside her.
"Kai.." Kleo shivered. Kai noticing her shiver, took off his shirt.
"Kleo take off that wet shirt..." Kai demanded, his muscular body was now showing. Kleo blushed at this site.
Kleo sat up, as Kai helped her take it off, Kai suddenly blushed, realizing she was only wearing a bra underneath. Kai then threw his shirt at her, as he stood up and turned around, "Put it on.."
Kleo also blushing, pulled his tee-shirt over her head, and she gasped at the warmth of it, "You can turn around now.." Kleo coughed, still cold.
The violent storm raged out side, water was rising, they needed to find higher ground. Kai and Kleo began to venture further into the cave, looking for a safer shelter. Kai held out his hand for Kleo to grab onto when they came to a hard spot, Kleo took it, and tumbled forward, bumping chest to chest with Kai. Almost in a kiss, Kai briskly looked away and continued on, in to the dark cave, with only the light of the flash light guiding them.
Kleo was almost positive, those would be the only words she would exchange with Kai, but then again, she never heard Kai, when she wasn't breathing.
Kleo was now completely flustered, she got her self all worked up, "Kai!" She called to him. Kai spun around. "Where do I stand with you?" She asked harshly, "Because if we are no longer speaking tell me now, and will turn around, and continue on my own!"
"Your not going out into that storm.." Kai stated simply.
"Kai! God dam-it, answer my question!" Kleo barked, warm tears of furry sliding down her face.
Kai, walked back towards her, now facing her he sighed, "Let's go Kleo.." Kai grabbed Kleo's wrist, and began to pull her further into the dark cave, Kleo quickly pulled her arm back, turning Kai around. Kai didn't realize her strength until then.
"Answer me!" She demanded.
Kai hadn't seen Kleo like this before, she seemed so angry, and lost. Normally she was a quiet girl.
"Kleo I.." Kai was trying to use his careless tone when he was cut short by another outburst.
"No Kai! I now know, that you don't care! We don't have a chance do we? I was crazy for letting my self fall for you. When you don't even give a damb about me. You didn't even care to glance back at me, while we crossing the river.." Kleo snapped.
Kai grabbed Kleo by the shoulders abruptly, "You listen to me! Don't you dare tell me, I don't care!! Okay? I was worried sick bout you! In fact I still blame myself for what happened to you!" Then realizing what he said, he changed the subject, "Let's go.."
Kleo breathed heavily from her out breaking tears, "Blame your self?"
'Is Kai stating he has a heart?' she thought.
"Kleo you could have died, and the truth is I don't know what I would have done with out you. I, being the leader of this mixed team and my own, should be the one protecting the teams..that includes you! If you would have died, I would always blame myself for your death! I was trained to have no emotions Kleo, but you..you made me...fall for you too..." Kai huffed.
Kleo stared deeply into Kai's eyes, "Kai..." Kleo then shook of Kai's grip with a quick jolt, she then turned away from him, she was now sobbing, "I thought you would never speak t me again...I didn't think you were coming back for me...." She whispered avoiding his eyes.
"Of course I would.." He replied in the same way. Kleo wept more. "Hey..it's okay now, I'm here now aren't I?" Kai turned Kleo to face him. Her face was red and wet, her eyes were puffy and her eyes glistened from the tears.
"It's okay now," Kai repeated.
Kleo exhaled throwing her arms joyously around his neck. Kai didn't want her getting hurt, or himself, so he then pushed her away a bit, looking deeply into her soft eyes. But little did he know, was he was getting closer to her. Kai had no idea why he was doing this. Half of him was saying this was a bad idea, but the other half, the half controlled by his heart was saying to let go of his past.
Kleo wasn't completely calm, so her breath was coming faster than it would have if she was at ease. Finally, Kai allowed himself, to indulge himself, removing the slight gap between their mouths placing his lips softly upon Kleo's. Kleo's teary eyes, closed briskly with a tight force.
Kleo smiled softly under the repressed kiss [Kai, he can't be...] She almost believed herself too, until Kai's lips began kneading Kleo's '[He is!]' her mind screamed, she then responded, relaxing herself slightly. Her shoulders shrank down, and she let out a soft yet hushed moan of approval. The kiss leaving Kleo limp in Kai's arms. Kai pulled himself away from Kleo, who unleashed an almost silent tone of objection, as he did so. Their eyes opened in unison as they both took in a deep breath. They stood, panting, both trying to find something to say, gazing blankly at each other, but the silence seemed enough. The tense tranquility softened.
"Kai..." Kleo gasped, the kiss leaving her breathless and docile.
Kai removed a ringlet of hair that dangled in Kleo's eyes, as he moved it off to behind her ear, "You were hiding your beautiful eyes.." Kai muttered timidly.
Kleo couldn't resist, his lips so welcoming, eyes so deep, she could easily be lost in them, plus the fact he had not shirt, making him hot. Kleo grabbed Kai by the belt loops of his pants and pulled him in, meeting him with a kiss. Slipping her tongue in his mouth as the kiss deepened. Kleo could feel his husky body, and the warmth of it against hers. Kai slipping his one hand into her jean back pockets, while his right held her up by her neck, pulled Kleo closer. His mind screamed 'No!' while his heart, and body screamed 'YES!', after all majority wins. Soon his mind, began to agree with his heart, as he began to kiss her intensely. His lips perusing over her lips, then finding their way down to her lower neck, all the way back up again. Once again forcing himself to push away from her. Their lips unlocked, and Kleo let go unwillingly.
Kai briskly looked away from Kleo, avoiding her sad eyes, "I can't..." he whispered emotionlessly, with no expression painted on his face..
"You can't have both Kai.." Kleo whispered sadly turning away from him, as she began to venture back outward to the storm.
"Kleo! You can't go out there!" Kai snapped.
Kleo didn't glance back as she continued onward.
[Who are you kidding Kai? No body but your self...] His mind yelled at him. Kai marched angrily over to Kleo (mainly angry with him self) and grabbed her by the waist, whirling her around. Kleo gasped as he did so. Kleo was now crying. Kai reached out his hand, and brushed away her tears, his hand was like silk. Then his hand slid off Kleo's cheek and down to her waist. Before Kleo knew it, he pulled her in close to his body, and then their lips touched, strong, briskly yet gently. Kai's hand furrowed through her hair, tangling it through his fingers. Kleo then pushed Kai away.
"Kai?" She was confused
Kai shook his head, "Who am I kidding Kleo? I....I'm falling in love with you..." He said with a meek grin.
Kleo's mouth was dry, her throat tingled with excitement. She bit her lower lip preventing her self from screaming, in laughter. Kleo was breathless and speechless. Breathing heavily. And her breaths became more rapid as he leaned in again.
Again, Kai took Kleo by the waist and pulled her in, greeting her with a vigorous kiss. Kleo smiled beneath the stifled kiss. Kleo jumped up in Kai's arms as they kissed, her legs wrapping around his waist. Her arms draping over his shoulders. Kai pulled her in close, embracing her as the united their lips. Kai almost trembled as he held Kleo in his arms, as if afraid of the outcome. Kleo over joyed with bliss. Kleo then leant back, releasing their lips, as Kai showed disapproval when she did, as he held her waist up preventing her from falling.
"You don't have to be pusillanimous any more.." She smiled, as she hugged him tightly. Kai hugged her back. He wasn't use to behaving this way, but he enjoyed every breath of Kleo.
"You changed me forever..." Kai whispered. He then frowned at himself realizing, what she did to his emotions.
"Just think, we were strangers, starting out on journey.... Never dreamed what we had to go through...now here we are, and I'm suddenly standing, at the beginning with you..." Kleo whispered as Kai slowly lifted her down.
"No one told me I was going to find you, I didn't expected what you would do to my heart..." Kai admitted.
Kleo bit her lower lip, Kai had finally spilled out his feelings. The Kai she knew had a warm side. And she loved it.
