HERE WE GO AGAIN!



Center To None

Chapter 2: Gone

Events from earlier that day played back in the 5 Bladebreakers heads over and over. They were in the lobby of the hotel and stared blankly as police and paramedics rushed in and out of the building. The hotel was empty except for the 5 teens that waited patiently for the police to take them to the station for questioning. The paramedics came to a conclusion that Kenny had died and there was nothing that they could do to save him.

Rei stared at the ground going over the sights and sounds from that morning. He remembered seeing Jewel start to cry and him trying to comfort her while trying not to loose his mind. He remembered how Kai kept mumbling something but he couldn't tell what he was trying to say. The sound of the faucet dripping water like it had no end and the sight of Tyson and Max. He had never seen Max so mad, he was always happy, cheerful and carefree but that morning it seemed as though he had seen hell.

The others were basically thinking over the same thing. They stared expressionlessly at the floor. Then a voice brought them back to life. "Ok everyone I'm terribly sorry for the loss of your friend but if you don't mind we would like to take you down to the station now," said the police chief. They all nodded. "Pick up your things and meet us outside," he added as he left the building. It didn't bother them much; they didn't want to be in this hotel as long as they could help it. They picked up their suitcases and started for the door. They were almost there when it suddenly slammed. "What the.?" shouted Kai. All the doors and windows closed and were bolted shut. "What's going on?" Jewel said worried as she backed away from the door and more toward the group. "You will never leave this place," said a voice, "You will all die!"

Kai frantically started looking in every direction in fear that someone or something would appear and kill them all. Max moved toward Tyson as Jewel for safety. Rei walked over to Kai to help him in his scan of the hotel lobby. It was empty, for now anyways.

"Well whoever that was their not in this room," said Kai looking at the stairs. "What should we do now?" asked Max. "I think we should take a look around the hotel," answered Kai now looking at the elevator, "And I think we should take the elevator. "Why the elevator?" Rei asked. "Because I just don't have a good felling about taking the stairs." Replied Kai.

"Ok but let me just recap on everything thing that happened so far," said Jewel. "Someone killed Kenny, in the shower, hanging him by his own tai." Everyone shuddered at that sentence. "Some weird freaks are keeping us hostage in a hotel and now threatening to kill us," she continued. "And we don't even have the brains of our group. Only Tyson, Max, Rei, the Center, and me" With that she started to sit down to calm herself down before she stared to swear and go insane. "Hey, who is the center?" asked Kai, "I don't remember hearing my name." "You are the center," said Rei, "I guess we never told you but when you aren't around we always call you the center because you keep everyone on track." "Oh." Kai said, "Well if I keep everyone on track then I say we take the elevator to the next floor." Everyone nodded.

Max helped Jewel up as Tyson walked toward the elevator. "Tyson hold up!" He yelled to him as he walked into the elevator alone. Jewel was standing now and Tyson answered, "No sweat Max in just making sure it works. Besides you guys are ri." He was cut of by the elevator doors slamming. "Tyson!!" yelled Max as he ran over to the elevator with the others behind him. Max reached the door and started pounding on it. "Come on!!!!" he yelled as he kept slamming his fist into the metal.

"Max stop!" said Jewel as she pulled his hand away and saw blood on his fist. "Oh no." she said. "Lets go! I'm taking you to the water fountain to wash of this blood."

Meanwhile Kai and Rei were examining the elevator door. "Hey Kai.look," Rei said as he pointed to the top of the elevator. Kai looked up to see the arrow that shows what floor the elevator is on going haywire. "This can't be good," Kai said and looked at Rei. "I have a feeling we may never see Tyson again.and if we do he maybe like Kenny." Rei nodded, he had been thinking the same thing but didn't want to admit it to himself.

Jewel and Max walked back to the 2 other boys. Max now had a cloth rapped around his hand and Jewel was pressing on it to stop the bleeding. "So, any luck?" Max asked. "None yet," Rei answered. Suddenly the elevator opened behind them. No one dared to turn around to see what would be there.

They stood there for about 5 minutes and finally Kai took a deep breath and turned around. There was a sigh of relief and then Kai said, "The good news is it's not Tyson's body, the bad news is we have no idea were Tyson is.that is if he's still alive." Everyone else turned around and there lying in the elevator was Tyson's red, white, and blue hat.
