Chapter 2: Meetings
Author's Note: Thank you guys for the reviews. On with the story!!!!! Whoever asked why this story is PG-13, is because of cussing and future events. I can't tell you what they are because that would be spoiling.
Kai opened the door quietly, and peered in. He wanted to make sure that his grandfather wasn't around. He knew that his grandfather wouldn't except to the fact that he was helping someone out like this.
"Why are we stopping?" Julia asked.
"Just making sure no one is around." But that is where Kai was wrong. In the shadows were his loyal servants watching this new creature being led in by their master.
"Why?" Julia asked puzzled. Kai put a finger to her lips so that she would be quiet. She got the message and kept quiet. He took her by the hand again and led her up the to his room. Once inside he let go of her hand and she felt her way to the bed and sat down.
"So…Let's talk about the situation." Kai stated.
Julia nodded her head, "Yeah that would be great."
"I have a question about that boy you were with. Are you related?"
Julia face saddened, "He's my so called boyfriend, Steve."
"WHAT!!"
"Yeah, it's strange he was so nice at first but then one night something happened to him. And he's been mean to me ever since."
"Why don't you leave him," Kai asked his voice a little shaky.
"That's the problem, he's supposed to be a friend of the family, and before my parents died they said he could stay as long as he wants, it's even in their will."
"So your saying that now that you blind," Kai slightly cringed at the thought of it, "is that he might hurt you even more."
"Yeah it's not safe for me to go home."
Kai thought for a moment, "Then you can stay here."
Julia looked up, "REALLY!?!?!"
"Sure, it's the only thing I could do to help you out since it was my fault that you can't see right now."
"I told you it's not your fault."
"But I can't help but to feel responsible," Kai hung his head thinking of the recent event. He scowled at the fact that someone like Julia is getting beaten by her boyfriend. He heard shuffling on the bed, he looked up to see Julia's face right in front of his. She slowly put her hand on his face and felt around his facial features.
"Your serious?"
"Of course I am!"
"I'm sorry I'm just not use to this type of thing." Kai took her hand that was still on her face and brought it down in front of him.
"You're not ever going back to place again."
Julia gasped, "But you heard Steve tonight he expects me there by eight."
Kai looked at the clock on his wall, "Well it's eight-thirty now."
Julia's eyes widened, "Oh no!!!! He's going to kill me!!!!"
"NO HE'S NOT!!! CAUSE YOU'RE STAYING HERE!!!!"
There was a long period of silence, "Okay."
*****
Julia was fast asleep in the bed, while Kai was sitting on the windowsill. This was a great time to go over your thoughts. No one to bother you. He looked over to Julia who was breathing softly in her sleep. He let a big sigh.
She can't stay here that's the only problem, this Steve will find my address and come after her. I need to find a place that he won't suspect……I GOT IT!!!!!
******
…Next Morning…
"Kai! Why are we running?" Julia complained as Kai was dragging her down the street. She was tripping over things. Every time Kai caught her put her back on her feet, but as soon as her toes touched the ground.
"Trust me!" He said sternly. And that's how it was until finally they stopped.
"Kai, tell me what the area looks like please."
"It's a dojo."
"A dojo? What are we doing here?"
"A friend of mine lives here."
"Well, that's probably the first time I heard you say that I was a friend," said a voice.
"Come on Tyson!! Knock it off!!!!" Tyson stepped into the opening.
"Now that's the Kai I know!" Julia walked up to where she thought the voice was coming from, letting go of Kai's hand. She felt around the air trying to find Tyson. Tyson was just confused; Kai walked up to her took her by the hand.
Well, well, well what do we have here? Tyson thought as he focused on their hands.
"It's okay Julia you don't need to find where Tyson is."
"FIND??? I'm standing right in front of her!!!" Julia's eyes became watery, while Kai was giving Tyson the death glare. Tyson knew what was coming he quickly started running as far away from Kai that he could possibly manage. But alas…….
PPOOOOOOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!! Tyson was sent flying into the wall of his dojo. Kai stood in front of him with his arms crossed over his chest. His usual pose, Tyson slowly slid off the wall to the ground.
"Okay, can someone explain what just happened?" Tyson grumbled on the ground.
"You had to act like that!!! A complete ASSHOLE!!!"
"Well, I'm not the one with a violence probl…."
"WHAT WAS THAT!?!?!?!?!"
"Nothing…." Tyson squeaked; Julia ran up to them.
"What happened!?!"
Tyson quickly stood up, dusted himself off, and laughed nervously, "Nothing in particular. It's how we say hello!! Isn't that right Kai???" Kai's sweat dropped.
"Tyson I need you to do something for me."
"What are team mates for!?!?!?!"
"…Yeah…Right…Anyway, I need you to let Julia stay with you in your dojo."
"Why?" Julia and Tyson said at the same time.
"Because Steve will probably find out where I live. So he would never think of something remote like this."
"HEY!!!!!!!!" Tyson yelled, "Fine I'll do it. Unless it's too REMOTE for you Kai."
"Then it's a deal," Kai said as he walked off. Julia took a few steps towards him.
"Kai!" He stopped turned around to look at her. She looked scared and lonely.
"Don't worry I'll come back tomorrow morning," He then turned and left. Tyson couldn't help but to look back and forth from Kai to Julia. After he left, he smiled.
Kai, you slugger you! Tyson walked up to Julia and placed a hand on her shoulder, making her ump slightly.
"Come on. You need to meet my grandpa." They walked inside, all of a sudden an old man in training gear jumped out of nowhere.
"AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! GRANDPA!!! DON'T DO THAT!!"
"Sorry my man!! Couldn't help!!! I was in the groooove!!!!"
"Does he always sound like that?" Julia whispered to Tyson. He slowly nodded.
"And who's this young beauty?"
"Grandpa, I would like you to meet Julia. And is it okay that she lives with us for a while?"
"Sure!!! More the merrier I always say!!!!"
"That's a relief, if she couldn't stay then Kai would have my head."
"Why?" asked a puzzled Julia.
"You haven't seen him when he's mad."
"That's something I want to talk about……you see I'm blind."
"Oh!" Tyson waved his hand in front of her face but she didn't react to it. Finally something hard hit his hand.
"OWW!! GRANDPA!!!"
"Little dude, don't you have any manners."
"What!?!!?!?!"
"Julia come with me. I think I can help you." Tyson's grandpa walked off, but Julia stayed.
"Uh…Tyson?" Tyson sighed took her by the arm and led her to where his grandfather was going.
*****
When they got to the room where his grandfather was, the old man was sitting on his knees sipping tea in front of a small table.
"Have a seat," he motioned them to sit on the other side of the table. Julia sat across from him while Tyson sat next to her. Tyson's grandfather spoke up after a long period of silence.
"So your blind…But don't worry you still have you other senses right?"
"Huh?" Julia stated in her confusion.
"You know like smell, touch, sound, and etc."
"Oh."
"I'll teach you how to make those senses stronger so that you don't need sight. Tyson your gonna help."
"ME!!"
"Yeah you." Grandpa smiled, even people like him have moments that prove that they are very wise. This was one of those moments.
