Chapter Thirteen-Escape...or trap?

Shanna put her hand over April's hand, hoping that April wouldn't scream and alert Wilbur to the fact that April was getting dragged away to safety. Unfortunately, April couldn't see who was behind her and there had been that gun shot. Shanna sighed and put her mouth close to April's ear, hoping that this would be something that only April could hear. "Stop it! It's just me."

To hearing Shanna's voice, April stopped struggling and let herself relax in Shanna's grip and Shanna pulled April back to the safety of being far away from Wilbur and the other guys. Shanna hoped that Kai would be okay but this was what he wanted and the least she could do was respect his opinion and get April out of here.

April got about twenty feet away from the fighting guys and then stiffened her feet, making it almost impossible for Shanna to drag her anywhere else. Shanna gritted her teeth, trying not to give April the biggest lecture of her life. This was not going to be easy, April didn't want to leave Tala alone, Shanna could sense that but it wasn't like they really had a choice in this.

"Tala will be fine." Shanna assured April and then turned to pull April by her elbow to the mansion that was so close to them yet so far away.

April turned to look at Shanna, her eyebrows creased in confusion. "Who said that I was worried about Tala?" April's gaze turned to where he was attacking Wilbur. "He may be my boyfriend but I don't worry about him, I know that he can keep his own." April's frown increased. "It's Rei I'm worried about. He's not usually the fighting guy. He's usually the guy that makes sure I get safely out of the place while Kai and Tala make sure no one follows."

Shanna looked at Rei and found that he was indeed in trouble. The guy that he was supposed to be defeating, was on top of him and landing a few pretty good punches. "He'll be fine April, come on, lets get you out of here."

April took one more look at Rei and then turned to run towards the mansion with Shanna at her heels.

Kai knew how to fight, he had to with the way that he was brought up in such a highly respected, and hated, family. His grandfather had put him in fighting school the second he was old enough to walk around. Kai knew what he was doing and he was going to make sure that this guy remembered who he was messing with.

Kai could hear some form of conversation a few feet off but he was too busy taking out all of the anger he had about the fact that his girlfriend had been kidnapped to try and take the time to figure out what was being said. Kai looked down and noticed that the guy was shaking in his boots. Good, let him shake. Kai punched the guy once more and then trapped him under Kai and then looked around to see how his friends were doing.

Tala was standing up, Wilbur on the ground, bleeding and unconscience. Tala was stretching his arms like he did a lot after he fought. Kai had asked him once why he did that and Tala had just winked at him and gone to make sure that April was alright. Kai hadn't asked since.

Kai looked at Rei, who was pushing some guy off of him. Surprisingly, though Rei was on the bottom, this guy was unconscience and in a much worse condition than Rei was. Rei didn't look like a guy that would be able to hold his own but obviously he did a real good job of it. A better job that Kai had been willingly to give him credit for. It was a good thing too, these guys were pretty good fighters, then again it was obvious that they did this kind of thing for people a lot. Too bad they weren't as good as Kai and Tala were, and even as good as Rei.

Tala cleared his throat, snapped his neck and rolled his shoulders. "That feels a lot better. Now, where's April, I want to get her out of here and home as soon as I can so that I can make sure she feels better." Tala winked at Kai.

Kai grunted. "Don't I know it." Kai looked in the direction of the mansion, and stood up. "Come on, lets go get the girls."

Tala clutched April's necklace in his hand and then bent down and fished in Wilbur's pocket. Then Tala threw Kai his beyblade. "Don't forget about this."

Kai smiled. "Thanks Tala." The boys all turned and headed for the mansion

April closed the door and locked it, not taking any chances. "Come on, lets go and find Kai's room. That'll be the first place he'll look for us, so we might as well go there."

Shanna took a deep breath and followed April down the hallway to the pair of stairs. "Are you sure you know where you're going?" Shanna asked as April chose the stairwell that led upstairs.

"Yes. Kai brought me here once. He took me to his room and trust me, I never forget where something is once someone shows me." April promised and took the stairs two at a time. "God, it feels so good to be free."

"You're telling me! I was kidnapped for longer than you were." Shanna said, following April but at a much more relaxing speed.

April laughed. "You got a point at that." April turned to go behind the stairwell when they got to the top of it.

"Where are you going?" Shanna asked as she took a different turn.

"The question is, where are you going? Kai's room is this way. You're heading for the play room." April laughed. "He probably took you there a lot but this is the way to his room."

Shanna rolled her eyes. "This is not a time for laughing April. In case you don't remember, Kai is still outside trying to kick some ass."

"There is no trying in it." April said and opened a door. "He's probably already killed them." April turned to turn on the light and screamed as she saw something.

Tala heard a scream from inside of the mansion and he didn't even have to think before he started running for the door, Kai right behind him at his heels.

Tala tried to turn the doorknob, only to find that it was locked. "KAI! Where's the god damn key?" Tala turned to Kai who was fumbling under the doormat.

Kai stood up and shrugged. "The key I hid is gone." Kai took a deep breath. "I think that there's someone in there with them."

Tala rolled his eyes. "You think?" Tala's tone was thick and full of sarcasm.

Kai kicked the door in anger. "And I think it's the person that wants this necklace so bad."
