I'll save you = part 2
"TAICHI!? Get up! Your going to be late!" shouted Mrs Kamiya while making breakfast.
"Mum his not here!" said Kari
"What!? Where is he?" Mrs Kamiya panicked.
"I'm sure his ok mum?" Kari tried to calm her down.
"But he's never done this before! Was he home last night?" worried Mrs Kamiya.
"I'm not sure? Look, Tai might have stayed round a friends" suggested Kari.
"I hope your right? If you see him in school, tell him to ring?" asked Mrs Kamiya.
"I will mum. I have to go now. See you later, bye?" said Kari as she picked up her school bag.
"Bye hun. I hope your brothers ok?" Mrs Kamiya still worried.
"He is" Kari said as she shut the door behind her. "I hope so"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kari was worried about her brother as she walked along the busy street to school. She hoped he was not in trouble or hurt anywhere. As Kari wasn't paying attention to her surroundings she bumped into someone.
"Oh sorry Kari, I didn't see you" smiled Sora as she helped Kari up. "It's ok" Kari smiled back "So are you going the same way?"
"Of course I am silly. I go to the same school!" laughed Sora as she and Kari started walking to school.
"I know. I was just joking" smiled Kari. "Err Sora you didn't see Tai last night did you?"
"No I didn't. Why what's wrong?" Sora said worriedly.
"Well Tai's been acting oddly recently and he didn't come home last night!" explained Kari.
"Oh no! I hope he is not hurt!?" Sora started to worry more.
"KARI!? SORA!?" shouted a voice as they both turned round to see TK and Matt catching up to them.
"Hey you two" greeted Sora.
"Kari is Tai ok?" asked Matt.
"What!? Did you see him? Do you know where he is!?" questioned Kari.
"Calm down Kari. Didn't Tai come home last night?" asked Matt.
"No he didn't" replied Kari sadly.
"Fuck you Taichi!" Matt cursed. "He promised!"
"What are you talking about Matt?" asked TK.
"I don't know what Tai's been up to but last night when I was walking home from band practice I heard all this shouting. I looked round the corner of this alleyway and saw Tai getting a fret by this huge bloke!" explained Matt. "After I helped him he promised that he will go straight home!"
"Oh my god!" cried Kari.
"But the night before that when me and TK went out, we saw Tai with the same bloke and a girl. And when we was going back to the car Tai was fighting with some other people!" Matt continued.
"What is he up to?" asked Sora.
"I tried finding out yesterday with Izzy but no success!" sighed Matt.
"YAMATO!!" cried out a women's voice.
"Who's that Matt?" Sora asked as a girl ran up to them.
"Huh? Catrina?" Matt said, "What are you doing here?"
Catrina ran into Matt to hug him as she was crying.
"What's the matter?" Matt asked.
"He knows!" Catrina replied in tears "If you don't go and hide now he's going to get you!"
"Who Hiro?" asked Matt as Catrina nodded.
"Matt what on earth is going on here?" TK asked as him and the others were clueless from the situation.
"Please Matt? You have to go now! I do not want you getting hurt!?" cried Catrina.
"Thanks for your concern but Tai's gone missing? Do you know where he is?" asked Matt as he pushed Catrina away to look at her face.
"Hiro's got Taichi!" whined Catrina.
"What the hell is going on!?" shouted Kari frustrated and confused.
"Look I have to go before Hiro's finds out I've betrayed him!" Catrina said as she started to run.
"CATRINA!? WAIT!?" shouted Matt.
"I've got to go! Just promise me you hide yourself!?" shouted Catrina.
"OK!" Matt shouted back as Catrina disappeared.
"Looks like schools out of the question!?" sighed Matt.
"Matt! What the fuck was that about!? And who's that girl!?" asked Sora.
"Look, Dad's not home. So lets go back to my place so I can try explain things!" suggested Matt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Back at Hiro's hideout, he was patiently waiting for Catrina to come back.
"Hiro?" Catrina said as she walked into the abandon warehouse.
"I'm here Catrina" replied Hiro "Did you do as I asked?"
"Yes sir, Matt thinks I'm on his side" replied Catrina sadly. "I cannot believe you made me do that!?"
"What's done is done! It's to late now child" smiled Hiro evilly.
"Where's Taichi?" asked Catrina.
"In there" Hiro answered as he pointed to the door behind him.
"May I see him?" asked Catrina.
"Be my guest!" replied Hiro. Catrina started to walk to the door when Hiro grabbed her arm tightly.
"And while your in there, see if you can get any more info on this Yamato Ishida!?" He asked harmful voice.
"Yes sir" Catrina replied nervously as Hiro let go of her.
Catrina walked up to the door and slowly pushed it open. When she was inside there was not much light. The sound of water dripping echoed the empty room. Tai was sitting in a pool of blood in the corner tied up with ducktape around his mouth. Tai was not in good condition as he was covered in his own blood and looked pretty beat up. Tai had his head tilted down towards the floor so Catrina wasn't sure if he was awake or unconscious?
"Taichi? Taichi are you awake?" she whispered as she gently shook Tai's shoulder.
Tai raised his head slowly to see a concerned and worried girl in front of him. Catrina then gently took off the ducktape without hurting him.
"Are you ok?" she asked.
"I feel very drained" replied Tai half not there.
"Look this is all my fault! I should have never got you involved in this" apologised Catrina.
"It's not your fault. I was the one who met you. I wasn't to know about this?" said Tai weakly.
"Yeah but I did! And I didn't stop it! This has happened before! I know Hiro is not my father but when he found me, he has always been like one to me. And Hiro is an evil, mad man! The minute I make a friend he drives them away!" explained Catrina getting upset. "But you never left? Why did you stay by my side Taichi?"
Because when I first met you, you looked down on your luck and sad. And being the kinda guy to cheer people up I went to make friends. And when you were talking to me and you said 'I haven't a friend in the world' I promised you that you did have a friend. Which is me" explained Tai as he gave a weak smile.
"Thanks Taichi. You really are a true friend. But you still shouldn't of gotton involved in Hiro's illegal activities!?" said Catrina "That night when he made you deliver that package. I saw you were afraid and I know you're scared of Hiro. But so am I"
"I'm not surprised" agreed Tai "At first I thought I was just doing a few favours for him. But it ended up one murderous job! One after another and another and so on!"
"Well doesn't this look cosy?" smirked Hiro as Catrina and Tai jumped from the sound of his harsh voice. "Has young Taichi here said anything else?"
"No sir!" replied Catrina nervously as she stood up.
"It look's like I have to find out myself then!?" he smirked evilly. "Please leave Catrina?"
"Don't hurt him Hiro!? You've already hurt him enough already!" pleaded Catrina.
"Do as your told! LEAVE!?" Hiro said angrily.
"Yes sir" she replied quietly as she left.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So what your saying is that Tai is involved with some sort of Mafia!?" Sora said shocked.
"I think so, that's what it looked like to me" replied Matt.
"Oh my god!?" Kari said disbelieved.
"What's going to happen now?" asked TK worriedly.
"I don't know? But Tai's in trouble and needs our help" said Matt.
"But what can we do? Hiro's a mad man! We have to call the police!?" said Sora.
"No we can't! If the police get involved god knows what he will do to Tai!? He want's me. So he's going to get me!" Matt said as he stood up.
"What are you saying!?" demanded Kari.
"I've got a plan so listen up?" demanded Matt.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Catrina was silently crying was striding up and down a long dark corridor panicky, worried and afraid. Through out the abandoned warehouse Tai's cry's echoed. And everytime Catrina heard them she started to sob increasingly. Her tears made her eyes bloodshot and her face was stained with more tears. When Taichi's cry's stopped she new it was over. Hiro came out of the room Tai was in with his hands covered in blood which was obviously not his own.
"What did you do to him!?" demanded Catrina.
"That doesn't concern you!" he replied.
"It doe's! What did you do to him!?" she demanded once more.
"I don't like your tone young lady! Perhaps I should do the same to you!?" shouted Hiro as he grabbed Catrina's arm.
"Don't hurt me please?" Catrina begged with her life.
"Maybe you should keep your mouth SHUT!?" He shouted as he threw Catrina to the ground hard. "Now you do as I say!?"
Catrina didn't answer as she was sobbing terrified out of her wits!
"Now let us get Yamato Ishida!?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
(After school finished)
Izzy walked out the school with Joe and Mimi. They all wondered where the others had got to so they were going to ring them.
"PSSTTT!!" said someone as it got Izzy attention.
"What!? Matt what are you doing!?" Izzy asked puzzled as him and the other two walked over to Matt.
"Not here, just come with me" said Matt as he started running. Izzy, Mimi and Joe just looked at each other and shrugged.
"COME ON!?" shouted Matt as they followed him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"There they are!" said Kari as they ran other Matt and crew.
"Is this true?" Izzy asked Matt as he nodded "What can we do?"
"I've already came up with an idea but the thing is I don't know where he is keeping Tai!?" replied Matt.
"What is Tai doing with the Mafia anyway?" asked Joe.
"No idea!" shrugged Matt.
"Oh I hope he's alright!" Mimi said worriedly.
"Me too" agreed Sora.
"YAMATO!?" cried a voice "I've been looking everywhere for you!"
"Catrina!? Oh my god are you ok!?" Matt asked worriedly as a beaten up girl approached them.
"Are you ok?" asked Mimi.
"Hiro has lost his mind!?" cried Catrina "You should of seen what he done to Taichi!?"
"What has he done!?" demanded Kari. Catrina didn't answer as she was sobbing so much.
"Catrina where is he holding Tai?" asked Joe.
"At a warehouse" she replied.
"Where about!?" asked Joe.
"Down that way!" Catrina pointed "Come on I'll show you. I don't know how long Tai can hold on!"
"What do you mean!?" panicked Kari.
"Hiro has really hurt him. At this moment in time I say Tai's bleeding to death!?" Catrina replied.
"Oh no! TAI!?" Sora cried.
"There's no time to panic! Lets hurry!?" Matt said as he started to run towards the warehouse.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As the gang disappeared from view a shadowy figure smiled to himself evilly. "That's it Catrina" he said.
He then took the short cut back to the abandoned Warehouse.
