Disclaimer: I only own what is mine. My OCs, and ideas.

A/N: Ok first off I feel the need to say: don't worry about this story ending! Next Gen: Anna will pick up this story line and continue it! Also when I say ending soon I have at the very least 5 more chapters to write. I'm not finished with Kai (Make of that what you will; it can be good or bad). Um, I don't have much to say but read and enjoy this chapter.

Reviews:

ArtemisBAMF1218 - I can't confirm or deny weather or not Kai will escape. I can't say you are wrong because you might not be… Kai can is like Hope if he likes it or not. So that was that part of his personality. It's not the cosmic cube blocking his powers, just cosmic energy. I don't know what Ock's plans are yet but I can ensure you they are going to be bad. I am glad you like how I wrote Kai in that chapter. And I hope you enjoy him once more. This story has at the least maybe five more chapters left in it. If you go back and do some reading I think I already said what her set of powers are but I will also list them again in her story. So I hope you enjoy this!

NyanWolf - I am glad you loved this chapter. And thank you for the compliments. I don't think I planed this to be a hurt comfort Fan Fic, but it kind of turned out that way. I am glad you like a good torture scene because Ock isn't done with Kai just yet. I am glad you think I wrote my characters well and you enjoy how Kai still is hanging on, his motivation is in this chapter. The bracelet idea was so that he could keep his list on him. Not a problem on using your idea, I didn't even notice I did until you mentioned it, but there is a small reference to that also, you might want to check it out. Also don't worry about Next Gen: Anna too much because this story line will be continued in that story.


I hate Octavius.

I hate him.

I hate him.

I hate him!

All he has done is cause me pain. I want out of this prison!

I want to go home.

I want to be left alone.

I want to eat, and rest, and sleep without fearing my waking hours.

I had been here a week now, and Octavius has made it very clear that no one is coming for me.

He's had some 'fun' with me the past few days.

Day one was spent with more electrocuting. I'm shocked I'm not dead yet, I think I have mom's Immortal blood to thank for that.

Day two he tried drowning me some. I could have given up so easily. I am useless to him dead, if I just gave up it would be over! I wouldn't have to deal with this anymore. He couldn't use me!

And then he strapped me down to a table and cut my with a blade a couple hundred times.

He injected some stuff into me, and took blood.

It would have been so easy to just stop fighting and give up, give in.

Just die maybe.

But, every time I think that that faces come to mind.

Mom and Dad. I would hate to never see them again. And I couldn't put mom through that type of pain. She almost lost me twice in my life and I refuse to just give up. Dad would also be devastated. Who knows how he would take it!

Then Hope. She would murder Octavius. And anyone who has helped him. They would all be dead.

Then Anna, she is the last one I see. And the one that makes me fight the hardest. I don't understand it though. We are just friends aren't we? I mean she is amazing, and smart. And she is pretty. But we are just friends. I don't understand why her face brings the most hope. She's really great, and she cares for me and we're friends. Maybe, maybe there is something else here? Something I am missing…

Maybe I like her, a little? Maybe, there is something more between us?

I'm too tired to think.

How long have I even been here?

Maybe a week, likely more… They routine of pain is an endless cycle.

I'm in my dome again, it makes me feel safe. I'm no closer to controlling cosmic energy than I was when I got here.

Octavius has made it clear he doesn't like me either.

A small glass of water once a day.

I tried throwing it against the glass walls to get out. But it didn't work.

And every other day I get an apple to eat.

Which isn't rotten. I guess he figured out I refuse to eat rotten food.

The pile of apple cores confirms that I have been here a week and a half.

I have a collection of 5 apple cores means about ten days.

I have also gathered up all the metal on the floors and walls.

There was a large amount. But under everything were the same glass walls that I could break.

There was plenty of other things in the lab I might have been about to use as an escape. But I couldn't get them.

So I play with the metal.

It's boring being locked up like an animal.

The most fun I get is when I am taken out of this prison.

I always have a few select words for Octavius before he shuts me up with pain.

"Good morning, freak." His voice laughs at me. "Time to come out of that fort."

My arm count had reached 4. I had a good time melting his arms when he ticked me off.

His metal arms being to bang down on the dome once more. Pounding on my shelter.

He breaks through after punching at it for a few minutes to find I had made myself a peg leg and was standing up waiting on him.

I was dizzy and unbalanced.

Btu I was ready to put up a fight. I stumbled out of the room metal wrapping around my hand in orbs ready to be used.

"So you want to play?" Octavius asks me. His voice is still like nails on a chalkboard.

"I'm here to fight. I want to go home, and I will go home. I will not allow you to stand in my way." I bark at him.

"You're a fool to think you can take me in your state, you've been here longer than you think. You've been unconscious for days at a time, your body is rotting. And you can't even use your telepathy, what do I have to fear from a boy who can hardly stand?" Octavius questions me as he walks away from my cell and walks to the other side of the room giving me space.

"A lot." I reply.

"Look at yourself!" Octavius laughs.

My hands light on fire and I throw it at the computers. They burst into flames. I am so mad at this freak.

"You should stop before you hurt yourself." I glare at Octavius. Then I used the metal under my feet to move. I can't really walk…

I rush Octavius and melt one of his arms.

"Freak!" he grabs me as I started to melt another arm. "You will obey me!"

"I will not." I grunt, he grabbed me by the neck.

"You don't get a choice." He growls.

One of his other arms grabs a remote looking thing and then he presses a bottom and I go limp.

There is a throbbing in my head. "That chip will end up killing you if you don't do as I say."

I feel the metal walls and move forming a word in Chinese:

救命

The fires get bigger and bigger as my pain grows and it spreads everywhere.

I can't stop.

It is a nightmare.

Octavius zaps me with more electricity. I fall and curl up. The fire is getting much, much worse.

"You are going to suffer for this."

And with that I feel the pressure build back up, negative energy collecting in my stomach. Pain and anger an all those other things build up inside of me, the feelings of… of….

Of….


My back hurts and my hands feel so sore.

I blink open my eyes.

Did I blow up again?

I go to rub my face. But my hands are restrained before I can reach my face.

I jump up to stand and fall, forgetting I can't stand.

I am not sure how I keep forgetting this…

"This time we're not going to blow ourselves up, understand?" Octavius asks me, the chains pull up on my arms.

I'm mostly suspended from my arms as I am able to get my foot under me.

"You are too much trouble for my taste so now we are doing things my way. You open your mouth, make one move I don't like… and I will make you suffer…" his voice is dark and filled with the fact he will come through on this threat.

I breathing quickens.

He seems to get pleasure form this. "And if I can't hurt you enough, I will hunt down everyone on earth you care about. Your sister and the girl."

"What girl?" I ask, I'm lying. Electricity comes down the chains and through my arms.

I go limp, likely putting too much of a strain on my shoulders.

I scream out in pain.

It takes a while and my tunnel vision returns, but I can finally breath after a few minutes when it stopped.

I look up at Octavius.

"Why don't you just kill me already and get it over with?" I ask sourly. "Scared I might kick your butt?"

Once more the electricity returns. And this time my whole vision is taken away and there is calm. I watch the sea of blood and the figure on the island with the remote becomes clear.

Octavius.


"Welcome back." A creepy voice greets me. "I though you were going to leave me. And we can have that. Can we?"

This time I am strapped down to a table. "Normal people would have died by now. You have survived what would have killed a normal human."

I let out a breath, to me is sound satisfactory.

"And now, I get the pleasure of finding out what makes you tick."

My head throbs with an unending pain as I feel something cut deep into my stomach.

I fight against the bonds and the feeling of puke in my mouth.

I gag, but I have nothing in my stomach to throw up.

I focus on the reasons I can't die.

Mom.

Dad.

Hope.

Anna.

Anna, please come and rescue me.

Hope, please come and rescue me.

Anyone, please come and rescue me.

Dragon Lords…

Anyone…

Please…
