Chapter 4 Rei's POV

Tyson and I have been working for a while now and are finally finished. Kai didn't stir once while we cleaned the gashes and wrapped the broken ribs. He was asleep most likely since the uneven breathing was deep and his eyes were closed.

" Whew, never knew someone could bleed that much." Tyson sighed and tossed his red cloth into the pot of now cold water. I watch as he reaches over and grabs a blanket, wrapping it around the blader. The pale skin blended in with the many bandages that we put on Kai and made him look almost dead. Kenny walks over and I quickly put the blanket further up on his chest, not allowing Kenny to see the horrific scars that brand Kai.

" Are you two hungry? We have some sandwiches from the cooler." He smiles and Tyson gets up.

" You coming Rei?" he asks turning slightly. I look down at Kai and then back at Tyson.

" No, someone has to stay here incase he wakes up, or something goes wrong." I resettle back on the ground and listen to the breeze rustle the leaves over my head. Off in the distance I hear small forest animals make their odd noises, the laugher of the other boys can also be heard. Tyson must be making them laugh, good they need to be cheerful about something. I sigh and frown, my thoughts going back to what Kai had said before he passed out.

'People don't touch to help, only to hurt.' Could those scars be the repercussion of people touching him? The scars on his back were longer and worse, possibly Kai was abused so badly that he lost faith in any form of contact? I don't know, but now that I see the marks I want to know the story, every bit of it. I muse over how to get Kai to trust me, knowing Tyson was out of the question.

I am jolted from my thoughts by a moan and I look down at Kai, whose eyes were fluttering, then opened to reveal the crimson orbs. I smile slightly only to get a frown in return.

" Easy Kai, your wounds will reopen." I instruct and am about to hep him up when I remember. So instead I give him space from my hands unless he falls forward, then I can catch him. He struggles to a sitting position and sighs, looking around calmly and suspiciously. Then the eyes settle on me, looking me over in silent confusion.

" Welcome back Kai, you had as worried." I tell the older boy who only clutches the blanket closer to his chest and looks away. I sigh, not taking the silent treatment hard, use to it actually.

" Are you hungry?" I ask, trying to get an answer from the wounded teen. I am greeted by silence, he won't even look at me. Is he pissed that I saw the scars? Or is he afraid of what I might think?

" Come on Kai, say something." I try again, then get the eyes to look at me. He only stares at me that is all. I look right back, knowing he is stronger but accepting the challenge all the same.

" Car coming." He whispers and moves so he can get the blanket to fall over his shoulders, covering his chest. He looks at me and I reach out my hand to help Kai to his feet. Reluctantly he grabs my hand and I hoist him from the tree in a fluid motion, earning a grimace and groan from Kai, who was wavering on his feet. The others notice the headlights and come to stand by out side, Tyson right next to Kai and I on the other side. Kai is wavering slightly but still stands tall and proud. Tyson, Max and Kenny all stood happy smiles on their faces when two vans pull up at the wreak sight. Followed by a tow truck and two cops. I frown when I feel Kai stiffen by my side and I cast him a sidelong glance, only to see the cold emotionless eyes are back.

" Are you kids okay?" Mr. Dickinson calls from the van he gets out of. The man walks over hurriedly and looks us all over making sure we are fine. He gets to Kai and stops when he sees the blanket covering him.

" You okay Kai?" he asks the loner. Kai nods and waits patiently until we are allowed to get into the vans. I look at Kai and see the pain etched on every feature and know if he doesn't sit down that he will fall down.

" Mr. Dickinson can we get into the van?" Kenny calls out, obviously taking note of this too. The sponsor turns and smiles

" Go ahead, I will be there shortly." We make our way to the van, our stumbling, bruised and battered group. I smile as the other three waits until Kai is in and then take their places, all casting him worries looks. Kai seems to be caught in his own thoughts and doesn't notice the glances. His eyes are diverted, always looking else where than at us.

" Okay guys, don't worry I took care of the car agency and those cops out there are good friends of mine, who will not mention anything about this, I have some other friends who are doctors waiting back at the house for you." He tells us and then drives away, leaving the wreak behind and going to the house we are staying at for the next two weeks.
Rei's POV (A/N: I think this story is going to be from his POV and his alone)

We get to the house and file out of the van, Kai the last to get out and last to get into the house. Doctors come right over to where we stand and instantly look us over, asking questions. We are shown to chairs in the back room where we wait till the doctor has checked us over. Kai sits further away from us, his eyes focused on the floor, blanket still clutched to his chest. Most of the time I feel comfortable with the silence he radiates, but this time it's an odd silence, like he is trying to keep something secret. Well sorry Kai, Tyson and I know.

" So which one goes first?" The doctor asks looking us over and coming to rest on Kai. The leader lifts his head and shakes it.

" No, do the rest first, me last." He whispers and I look at him shocked. Kai is the most injured of us all and he wants the others checked out before him! He's nuts!

" okay, how about you Tyson." Tyson gets to his feet, looking at me and shrugging.

Tyson came back with a few band-aids, Kenny with a head wrap and a few bandages. Max came out with a pop and a big smile on his face.

" He's a nice doctor, he gave me a blow pop!" The blonde blader says and I laugh at the happy look on his face.

" Okay Rei and Kai. Can I see you two." I look up and over at Kai who is trembling slightly but the other boy gets to his feet and walks calmly into the room. I follow and hear the door close behind me.

" Rei can you please come over here, Nurse Genji will be looking over you. Kai you are with me, come this way." I watch Kai give the man a questioning look and walk away. I sigh and allow the gray haired nurse to look me over.

" My arm aches and my head a bit." I tell her and she nods, quickly looking over my arm. She smiles sweetly and shrugs

" It's not bad, only a bone bruise. I will give you a wrap just incase of bumping into things." I nod and allow her to wrap the white gaze around my bluish colored arm. She then checks my eyes, ears and picks her way through my raven colored hair, only to conclude I bumped my head and it was not serious. I am about to leave when I see Kai jump from the small table and grab a shirt from an out stretched hand. He quickly slips it over his head and walks away, without a single word. I hear the doctor give some more instructions

" Keep those cuts clean, and don't do anything strenuous until those ribs heal." Kai merely shrugs and walks through the door and back to the small room we were waiting in.

I watch as the doctor leaves and goes into another room, leaving the charts on the table. I see mine and Kai's and make my move. Slinking to where the charts were I reach up and snatch Kai's and hide it under my shirt, and out the door I go, looking innocent as I can be.

" Rei what did the doctor say about you?" Tyson asks as soon as I move out of the way of the door. I smile and rub my head.

" I got a bump and a bone bruise." I smile at the look he gave me and clap him on the back.

" Don't worry, not that serious." The others give me a strange look and leave the room, going to bed obviously. Tyson was about to do the same when I pull him back

" I got Kai's medical records, it should have something in there about those scars." I whisper and Tyson nods. I move away and we go to the small den Mr. Dickinson has. I have been to his house twice now and I'm the only Bladebreaker who knows of the secret reading room, inside the panels. I motion for Tyson to follow me into the tiny room and I shut the panel behind me. Tyson finds the light and flips the switch, flooding the tiny room with light. I sit on the floor and pull the chart from under my shirt and placed it on the floor. Tyson sits beside me and looks at it nervously

" Great everything we want to know about Kai." He laughs and I give him a dirty look. Opening the chart it has all the family history, I read out loud so Tyson can hear but in sentence form, like a story.

" Kai Hiwatari was born on December 21, 1986 to Halio Hiwatari and Kiki Hiwatari at 3:14 A.M." Now we know he actually had a family, and they were normal people for the most part.

" At the age of four Kai contracted an illness that caused massive internal bleeding and was admitted for two years." Tyson whistles softly. I press on

" At six his father died in an air crash, leaving his mother depressed and abusive." I shudder at the thought. I look up at Tyson, whose eyes are wide with wonder.

" That's harsh." Was all the blader could say. I nod and scan the record.

" Here's the first medical report after paramedics were called to the house because of a screaming child for tow days strait. Say's here Kai was seven when he was put into an orphanage after his mother beat him so bad, it broke both his knees one wrist and fractured most of his fingers." I think back to a rainy day while we were training when I saw Kai rubbing his hands like they ached. Tyson also must remember because he says

" Those rainy days make his fingers ache." Tyson smiles at his own magnificence.

" The orphanage also beat him, leaving nerve damage from electrical devices." I shudder, the thought of anyone being shocked makes me sick. Tyson takes the chart and scans it, looking for other reports.

" Ah at six he got sent to a foster family who would not feed him for over two weeks and duck tape him to the wall at night." Tyson looks up at me and I shake my head.

" No wonder Kai is so cold and hate filled! Look what people did to him!" I say mortified by the thought of a young Kai, duck taped to the wall for the night in a run down shack.

" Here's one where he is sent to Volitar Hiwatari a relative of Kai's father, he took the six and a half year old Kai in and got him to trust him. There are accounts from social services that the boy was happy and begin loved there." Tyson shook his head.

" Now he is withdrawn and hate full." I watch the other boy flip through the pages and come to one that struck a nerve. Tyson's face turned bright red and he pressed his lips shut in pure anger.

" What? What is it Tyson?" I ask, moving closer to look at the document. Tyson points at a section and I read it

" On April 9th 1995 Kai Hiwatari was placed back in care of his mother. The boy now seven was reluctant to go, but the court forced him to. Later accounts sent to the court by Social Services State: " The child in question is not taken care of. Miss treated and malnourished." But Kai remained with his mother until fall that year when Kai had to be hospitalized after being thrown down three flights of metal stairs. This proceeded a brutal beating in which the child suffered many gashes on his stomach, back, pelvic area and face." I feel like crying. Kai was so abused by the people in his past that he has every right not to trust anyone!

" You have no right to look into someone's past." A voice from behind me says coldly. I turn to see Kai standing above me a very pissed off look on his face.

" Kai, we can explain. Really we can." Tyson tries but Kai shuts him right up with a wave of his hand.

" Now that you know, what will you think of me?" He asks and moves to the wall, arms folded causally leaning against it. He looks at me and I stand up, walking closer I shake my head

" I think nothing less or more than I did before." I hand him the chart and walk from the room, Tyson closely behind me. As I go to the room I share with Kai I wave good night to Tyson and flop on my bed, my thoughts swirling around Kai and his past. What I said back there to him was not true. I think he is strong for enduring all that and has every right to be an icy soul. I give him credit just to be up and functioning, even if he holds as all at an arm's length. I will find out more about Kai Hiwatari, even if I have to steal, lie and cheat. I will know the mystery named Kai Hiwatari.
