Ha! You all hate me now don't you? I know that ending was evil, but. this
is me, like I'd give you the verdict in the same chapter as the trial,
where's the fun in that?
Some of you have complained about Kai being ooc in this fic, *coughs* he hasn't. he's actually in character and this chapter literally explains everything, including why I randomly put the Dark Bladers in this.
Thank you for the reviews, I can now tell you that three people have guess correctly, who I shall name at the bottom.
Enjoy,
This is it.
Half an hour past and the jury returned. The leader stood and turned to Mr. Dickinson.
"Has the jury come to a decision?"
"Yes we have your honour. We find Max Tate. innocent of all charges."
Max let out a puff of air as he fell into his seat with a huge smile on his face. Tala reached over and patted him on the back, with a small, but sad smile on his face. Rachael moved closer to Tala and took his hand in hers.
"We find Tala. innocent of all charges."
Rachael shrieked and hugged Tala while kissing him frantically. Tala, smiling brightly as he held Rachael tightly.
"We find Boris Balkov. guilty of the crime of stealing the Golden Phoenix and child abuse."
Boris slammed his fists on the table as he stood, rage rushing through his entire body.
"This is madness! This is all a lie! I never had any part oin this!"
"Take him away" Called Mr. Dickinson, obviously annoyed with Boris' outburst.
Boris was taken out of the room, still kicking and screaming his innocence.
"We find Voltaire Hiwatari. guilty of all charges, including child abuse."
Paled and shaking, Voltaire was quietly dragged out of the room. Kai watched this, his face expressionless, but turned back when he felt Max taking hold of his hands. Kai smiled at him and held Max's hand tightly.
"And, we find Kai Hiwatari.*you know I could go for a nice cup of tea now [dodges angry fangirls] okay okay, right, now, where was I? Oh yes*
.
.
.
.
.
.
.innocent."
Max jumped on Kai, who were both laughing and smiling at the verdicts they had just heard. From where Rei was sitting, he watched the exchange, overwhelmed and almost in tears as to what this meant to him. On his lap, Dalazark was clapping with a huge grin on his face. Rei smiled at him and joined in. It was all over, Voltaire and Boris had been found guilty and Kai was free from their hold forever.
The courtroom soon emptied, yet Kai, Tala and Max were taken backstage to get their belongings together. Rachael walked up to Rei and took Dalazark from him.
"Thank you Rei, for all you've done. This means so much to us."
"The truth came out and now we can get on with our lives." Rei spoke, standing.
"Yeah, thank you, again. I'm just so glad that we can finally get away from those two and make a new life so ourselves, and one I'll feel proud to bring Dalazark up in." Rachael said while holding Dalazark close to her, who hugged back, falling to sleep on her chest.
"I know, it hurt to see Kai have to go through all that, but, like you said, you have a new life now and now, Kai can have one too." Rei smiled
"Yeah," Rachael whispered, "Well, I'd better go and bring the car round for that lot. Bye."
"Bye."
Rachael left the room. Rei smiled to himself again, yes, Kai could start a new life and it would be with him. Rei jumped then walked out of the room and outside to wait for Kai to come out. Rei couldn't wait, he wanted to take Kai home with him now and celebrate the good news in their own special way. He wanted to hold Kai, to feeling his lips against his and let his hands roam over that soft body of his. Rei was over the moon.
~~~
It was half an hour before Kai, Tala and Max came out of the courthouse. Tala rushed straight down to Rachael, where they shared a loving kiss, much to the disgust of Dalazark. Rei smiled, imagining the same scene with him, Kai and Anasha. Max walked straight past them and into the car, waiting for them to hurry up and get going.
Rei turned to see Kai walk over to him, and his breath was stuck in his throat. Looking up at him, Kai smiled.
"Thank you, for all you've done." Kai said, simply.
Kai turned to leave, which pained Rei, not expecting it, but he grabbed hold of Kai's arm quickly.
"Kai, wait. I was thinking, maybe you'd like to come over to mine and we can celebrate this victory." Rei suggested, smiling more to himself then Kai.
Kai's lips curved into a smirk, "You know for a cop you're not very bright."
Rei was shocked and stepped back from Kai, eyes widened, ".What? . What?"
Kai let out a little laugh, "I said you're not very bright. The verdict was wrong, Kon."
"What do you mean?" Rei could feel his heart shattering under Kai's mocking gaze.
"I mean, Voltaire and Boris didn't steal the Golden Phoenix. we did; Max, Tala and myself. all on our own." Kai's smirk grew as Rei's shocked and bewildered expression turned his once glowing skin pale.
"It's a lie, but, but the evidence." Rei stammered, not believing this.
"What? The blueprints? It was my handwriting, Kon." Kai spit.
"But, the necklaces. yours didn't fit!" Rei whispered, his mind and heart aching.
"Oh yeah." Kai grinned as he took is necklace in his hands and opened it up, like a locket and took out a small snake, waving it in Rei's face, "You mean this. This is the key, I just kept it in this locket, pretty sneaky, eh?"
"You mean. you." Rei began, his body falling apart.
"That's right. I stole the Golden Phoenix and framed my grandfather and Boris. When you first came into the abbey Max suspected you of being a cop, but it became proof when a certain group called the Dark Bladers came to us and told us of your true identity. I must thank them for that later." Kai smirked, putting his necklace back in place.
"Why?" Rei whispered.
"You know why. You saw how they were treating us. You saw the damage they did to Tala and me. We were fed up; we wanted to get away from it all. And thanks to you, Drigger, we did." Kai laughed lightly at Rei's expression.
"Why put the safe in your own room then?" Rei asked.
"To confuse you, idiot. Kami, you dumb!" Kai mocked.
"You used me. It was all an act, wasn't it?" Rei spoke, anger surfacing.
"All of it. You were so easy to manipulate it was unbelievable!" Kai laughed.
"But how, did.?" Rei began.
"How did we do it? As they said, they were in their office, so Rachael made sure they stayed there all night. Then Tala and myself went to the museum and stole the Golden Phoenix while Max shut down the security systems, thanks to my short but useful time in a job of mechanics and computing." Kai smirked.
". You never felt anything for me, did you?" Rei spoke up, tears in his eyes.
"Please. I do this sort of stuff for a living, I don't feel a thing for any of my clients." Kai grinned; happy with the state he was leaving Rei in.
"But I thought we were different." Rei whispered.
"Yeah, we were. you were the cop and I was the thief, using you to get me off the hook!" Kai mocked.
"I loved you." Rei whispered.
"Emotions are no good, they only hurt people, you can keep them, I don't want them." Kai scowled, disgusted with Rei's words.
"I can't believe you, Kai. after everything I did for you." Rei spoke up.
"And what about what you did to me!! You tried to trick me into thinking I could get out of all this and get better money as a model! But that would've never happened! Would it!" Kai shouted.
The horn of the car sounded and they turned to see Tala, Rachael, Max and Dalazark waiting for them.
"Come on Kai! Let's get out of here!" Tala yelled.
"What will you do now?" Rei asked.
"See what money the abbey had hidden away and put it to good use." Kai explained.
"I really liked you." Rei repeated.
"I never felt a thing towards you, it was all an act, except for gratitude for getting me out of a prison sentence of course." Kai repeated.
Stepping forward, Kai placed a stiff, empty kiss on Rei's trembling lips.
"See ya."
Kai walked down and jumped into the back of the convertible with Max, who wrapped an arm round his shoulder then kissed Kai, before the car's engine started and the car took off, into the heavy traffic of the busy city.
Rei, exhausted and drained, slumped to the floor, now letting the tears run down his pale cheeks. A criminal had used him, and by the one man he thought he could truly love. It was Zachary all over again; again, he'd lost the one he loved, and again he'd been left on his own. Alone once again.
The End
~~~
There you go. I don't think any of you were expecting that ending, if you were, well done. Though, in a way I did give you a clue with Week and Disturbance, coz they both ended with this pairing not together. okay, they were "together together" as in a couple, but they weren't "together" as in, in the same place. Did that make any sense?
I'd like to congratulate the three people who guessed this very twisted ending:
Auri
Kit
Lillian-and-Lime (I suppose you two technically make it four pps)
Well done to you three.four. XP
Well, that's it, this fic is completed, there's nothing more to do with it apart from a thank you page which is in the next chapter. Ah yesh, there is one thing left to do.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR REVIEWS I LOVE YOU ALL VERY VERY MUCH AND I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW WELL THIS FIC ACTUALLY DID AND IT'S ALL THANKS TO YOU WONDERFUL PEOPLE.
Even if you didn't review, thank you still for at least reading this fic and I hope you enjoyed it. Thank you.
I wish you all a very Happy Easter for when it does come and you might see me with a one shot fic, but if you don't, I'll see you in June with my new fic, which I can't wait to start. It'll be call "Here I am" - yes the Bryan Adams song, so if you want a head start on what the fics gonna be. not that it gives you much of a clue, go listen to that song, coz that's what it's based on.
*Picks up Anasha* Alright, here we go. darkness and Anasha: Bye de bye !!
