Chapter 2
The three friends walk outside and sit on the front steps to wait for their ride to come. After a few minutes a forest green car and two black bikes pull up and stop in front of the school. The two drivers of the bikes get off and they take their helmets off to reveal its Meilin and Madison. Eli gets out of the car and looks up at his son and the two girls.
"You know it's not nice to make us wait." Yells Meilin as she walks up to the three on the steps.
"Oh come on mom. Relax you just got here." Groans Lexus as she stands up.
"I thought dad and Ka were coming to get us." Says Sora as she smiles at Meilin and Eli.
"Sorry Sora they had a meeting to attend." Says Madison as she smiles at her son.
"Hey ma, da. How was your vacation?" asks Nick as he opens the door to the car and pulls out his helmet and Sora's. He holds Sora's helmet up and smiles.
"It's was fine Nick. Lexus you are coming with us ok." Says Eli as he taps his watch.
Lexus nods and jumps in the car and Meilin, Eli and Madison all get in the car too and they drive off.
"Hey Sora!" yells a boy as he runs down the steps.
Sora spins around to see who called her name and smiles as she sees the senior that every girl falls for running down the steps towards her, "Hey Bobby."
"Listen I heard about this smashing party tonight down in the valley."
"That wouldn't be the Black Hearts party now would it?" asks Nick as he sits on his bike.
"Yeah it is, you two know about it?"
"Sure Bobby, we are going. Do you wanna come with us?" asks Sora as she smiles up at the tall 18-year-old.
"Um yeah ok, should I pick you up?"
"Nope we will pick you up at six. Be ready and waiting outside." Says Sora as she pulls on her helmet and gets on the bike.
"Sora your too young to drive and the same with you Nick."
"We'll see ya tonight Bobby. Remember six." Says Sora before she revs her engine and squeals the tires as she peels away from the curb followed by Nick.
~A/N: I know they are too young to drive but Sora, Nick and Lexus have fake id's so they can drive.~
"Ok you guys where are we going?" asks Lexus as she looks at the three adults in the car with her.
"Sorry Lexie but we have to take you to see Xander and Yelen." Says Meilin as she looks at her daughter.
"Why do I have to see them? Did I do something wrong?"
"Of course not Lexus, it's just they want to see you that's all. So you're flying to Hong Kong." Says Eli as he takes the turn off for the airport.
"Oh fuck no. The party is tonight and all of you said I could go, I'm not missing that party." Yells Lexus as she starts digging through her bag to find her gun.
"There will be other parties Lexus, but you have to go. You will be back tomorrow. It's not like we are sending you to live in Hong Kong." Replies Madison as she turns around and comes to face the barrel of Lexus's gun.
"I said no, I'm not going. Now take me back to the house, I have to get ready for tonight's party." Snarls Lexus sounding just like Meilin when she's pissed.
Madison looks at Meilin and back to Lexus.
"It will be hard to fire without this Lexie." Says Meilin as she holds up the magazine of bullets.
Lexus snorts, "It will still fire, I always keep one in the chamber. You taught me that mom."
"Lexus please, you have to go see them it's important. Please!" begs Meilin as she watches her daughter carefully.
Lexus thinks and she slowly lowers her gun and takes her finger off the trigger. "Fine I'll go but tell me why I'm going."
"Well before you were born, while Sakura was pregnant with Sora we had some problems that forced Sakura to leave us for eight months. We never told you three about this because we thought we would never have to, but it seems a new threat has come from an old threat. All three of you will go to see Xander and Yelen in time. You are first, then Nick and lastly Sora. You are not to tell the other two about this. Even when they come back you are not to talk about it. You will each be told something different and you will each be given a different assignment. Do you understand this?" says Eli as he pulls into the airport parking lot.
"I understand. Your keeping something else from me, I know you are. I will find out what it is, mark my words, I will find out. I don't care what it takes, if someone is out to hurt my friends I will kill them and it won't be a quick death they will suffer pain that they have never thought of."
"Ok now you sound like Sakura did fifteen years ago. Here's your ticket. See you tomorrow." Says Meilin as she holds up a ticket.
Lexus grabs the ticket as Eli stops by the front doors to the airport. She jumps out of the car and walks into the airport, she hears Eli speed off. "Oh I will go to Hong Kong alright and give Yelen and Xander a piece of my mind." Grumbles Lexus as she walks through the busy airport.
Nick and Sora pull into the compound and stop in front of the house. Sora pulls of her helmet and looks at Nick, "Where's Lexus? The car isn't here."
Nick shrugs and gets off the bike, pulling his helmet off as well. They both walk into the house and see Sakura and Li standing in the hallway.
"Where's Lexus?" asks Sora as she looks at her parents.
"You will see her tomorrow." Says Sakura.
"Where's Lexus?" says Sora letting her anger show in her voice.
"You will see her tomorrow." Says Li letting his own anger show in his voice.
Nick steps off to the side, not wanting to get in the middle of this.
"Fine don't tell us but we are going to the party tonight and I AM bringing a guest to the party and you will not object." Snaps Sora.
"Who?" asks Sakura as she steps between her husband and daughter.
"A friend from school. He's nice don't worry." Sighs Sora, as she looks at her mother and then over to her father.
"We need a name Sora." Says Sakura as she glances at Nick for a hint. Nick just looks at the floor.
"Bobby King. No biggy, dad told me the rules this morning. I can handle myself."
"How old is he?" asks Li as he steps up beside Sakura and looks at his daughter.
"He's eighteen, the same age difference between you two."
"I will be keeping and eye on you at the party. Now go get ready." Says Li with a sigh.
Sora smiles and grabs Nick's hand and walks upstairs. She whispers to Nick, "We have to find out what happened to Lexus."
Nick nods and follows Sora to her room.
