'Here kitty, kitty' hissed Rei as he approached the dark dojo.
Tala hurriedly pushed the others into the darkness hushing them as he quickly moved to a spot near the grilled window. The moonlight shone in brightly, its straight flow momentarily undisrupted by the thunderstorm, as the storm cloud was seemly blown away.
Lightning flashed once, its bright glare casting an eerie flare over Rei's face, his golden cat eyes glowing menacingly, his pupils no larger than that of needle thin slits. Rei hissed again, drawing the blade delicately over his tongue. Rei flicked his tongue over the blade, his eyes and ears alert for any sound or movement Tala might make.
Kai cringed to watch his kitten act in such a feral manner. He'd always known Rei to be a little rough and cat like, but to see him use his special abilities to hunt down someone he cared about...was heart wrenching, least to say. Kai was quite worried that either would get hurt. He knew he could trust Yuri to not pull out any moves that might hurt Rei, badly, but he wasn't so sure about Rei.
"I'm right here Rei," Tala stepped from his semi-hidden position, his footsteps telling Rei all he needed to know.
"Right...HERE!" Rei darted forward and leaped into the air. Tala stopped and looked around, where was he?
"He~~~~~~agh!!" Looking up, Tala saw Rei come out of a graceful mid air front somersault, the next thing he noticed was the sudden shock of pain that was sent to his brain as Rei brought the back of his upper ankle smashing down on Tala's shoulder, almost breaking the bone.
Tala caught his breath sharply. He let out a soft hiss of pain as he grabbed his left shoulder. The bone was definitely broken, but he could fix that. Tala stared at Rei and reached into his long gray jacket and pulled out a number of small, short metal bits. These were about two centimeter in diameter and about five centimeter in length.
Rei grinned, an untamed glint in his eyes. He brought the blade to his eyes and crouched low, swaying slightly, not giving Tala any indication to which direction he would go. Tala held the six metal bits in between the spacing of his fingers, three on his left and vice versa for his right, and gently squeezed their sides. From the center of the metal bits, protruded four-inch needles, at the back, a fan of not more one centimeter wide fanned from the back of the darts.
Tala jumped backwards and released the darts by throwing out his previously crossed arms and flinging the darts in Rei's direction. Rei smirked and leaped backwards, the darts hitting the floorboards missing him by a mile. He performed three elegant back flips before using the wall behind him ricochet back towards Tala in one polished front flip. Rei landed in front of Tala, crouched low, on one knee with his head bowed low. Then without warning, Rei suddenly stood up, dragging the blade from Tala's abdomen to his forehead.
Tala's head snapped back at the force and he fell backwards. Tala gasped as the pain suddenly filled his mind. With one arm, he grabbed his abdomen, which had been sliced open, he'd gauged that the wound was at least an inch deep. The other flew to his face, the blood dripping, sliding, flowing down his face and onto his arms, making it look as if he were crying blood.
"My god...Rei..." Mariah quietly breathed out. She moved backwards to get away from the scene, only to bump into Kai. She turned to glare at him, to tell him that this was all his fault, but then, she saw his tears.
Kai watched in horror as Tala was sliced into two literally. His scarlet eyes widened and his stunned expression was clear even in the darkness. Kai gaped at the scene before him, at his side, Lee reached for Mariah as Max huddled into Takao's arms.
Tala twitched slightly, trying to not show his hurt, the pain. He struggled to get to his feet, his crimson blood staining his gray coat that he was trying to shed. Underneath, Kai saw, Tala's dark red turtleneck betrayed no evidence of the blood and his black pants showed little of his bleeding, but he knew that the man was in pain.
Rei moved forward slowly, purposefully. He stood over Tala, who was crouched, /no, cowering/ on the floor, and laughed holding the phoenix blade over Tala's head.
Lee and Takao both realized what Rei was about to do and were about lunge forward to stop him, when Kai held a hand to stop them.
"Kai...what are you..." hissed Takao slightly puzzled.
"I trust him..."
"Which him?" asked Lee.
"I trust Tala not to harm Rei and I trust Rei to come back to me." The quartet looked at Kai as he breathed the words slowly and quietly to them. They nodded their heads in agreement to keep their peace. Kai turned his head back to the scene and decided to step into the whole situation; he finally caught on to what Tala was doing.
Rei stood over Tala, proud to have brought down his 'prey' down this easily. He toe kicked Tala's chin, sending Tala across the floor. Rei stepped towards him and glared down at his 'quarry'. He grabbed Tala's bruised chin in his hand and stared into Tala's dark ember eyes.
Tala stared back at Rei, not afraid of showing his fear, awe and fascination. Rei was surprised to see his 'enemy's' emotions so clearly. This was not right. What was going on? Suddenly, a pair of arms wrapped around Rei, but instead of struggling, Rei collapsed, tired and worn out.
"I love you." Came a soft whisper in his ear. Rei tilted his head back as he was lowered carefully to the floor.
"Kai...you came back..." Kai's burgundy eyes closed as a tear escaped by the side. He nodded and buried his head into Rei's shoulders while sobbing, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry" over and over. Rei turned around and wrapped his arms around Kai and lifted his lover's chin to look into his eyes.
Rei understood. It was as if a million things had been explained without a single word. Nothing had been said, but a bond had been created. Rei blinked and sighed into Kai's shoulder. Now he knew why Kai had left, now he understood why he had been with Tala...Tala...Tala!!
Rei jerked back, suddenly remembering Tala. He turned to look at the red head, only to find him pushing himself off the floor.
"Tala...I'm..." Tala smiled sadly and softly. He nodded and moved towards the door. He wanted to get out before any trace of him was left behind. Takao, Max, Lee and Mariah watched in confusion.
"What's going on?" asked Takao, making his presence known to Rei. Rei looked up and stared at the group gaping.
"I...I..." Kai put a finger to Rei's lips and said, "Let me tell them." Rei nodded and sat back on the ground as Kai stood up.
Kai opened his mouth to explain, when he spotted Tala leaving.
"Yuri...where are you..."
A loud heinous laughter filled the room, as the dojo door slammed open and as Kai stared stunned at the intruder.
"Thought you could get away did you? Think again." And all Kai could do was gasp and drop to the floor as Rei pulled at him.
Because, in front of him, was the man he'd thought he'd never see again.
