Full of Secrets and Regret

Chapter 8

A strange man walked into the hospital room. He stared at the elderly woman sleeping as he revealed a form of an injection of some kind.

"This will teach anyone else who dares to refuse to work for our master" the strange man said as he injected a type of poison that slowly kills the heart into the tubes.

The made sure no one else have seen what he just did as he cleaned up all evidence that would lead to him or his company.

"Seto's coming home today!" Mokuba jumped up on Seto's bed which Kairi was sleeping on.

"He's not going to be home till the afternoon" Kairi barley awake.

"I know...But I'm excited!" Mokuba jumped again.

"Why don't you get the presents ready" Kairi made an attempted to go back to sleep.

"You got to come with me!" Mokuba tugged her arm.

Seeing that she wasn't going to be dreaming anymore she redundantly went with Mokuba.

~*~

"Isn't it exciting? Your sister is going to get married!" A female came out of the kitchen and served Kei a variety of sweets.

"Yeah" Kei also excited.

"And to the richest man too" The female had long jet black here that hung to her hips. Brown eyes that shone bright. She was wearing skirt that hung to her knees and a blouse that showed the outlines of her fitted body.

"That doesn't matter.... As long as she happy" Kei took a bit of his cookie.

"To bad that none of you will be here long enough to feel happiness" The female said in a lower voice.

"What?" Kei quickly got up from the couch and faced her.

"This will teach you to refuse our master" The female pulled out a gun from her leg.

"Danielle....You would betray be after two years?" Kei surprised that his girlfriend held a gun to his face.

"Why wouldn't I? You betrayed our master" Danielle pulled the trigger. Kei leaped out of the way.

"I didn't betray him...... We simply do not work for him" Kei frighten.

"You should of heard him....I LOST MY BEST TEAM!!! Blah blah blah" Danielle pulled the trigger again.

Kei leaped out of the way again, but barley missing it. "So why are you trying to kill me?"

"You? Hah! Not just you..... You think were going to let your sister be happy?" Danielle laughed.

"Kairi? No!" Kei kicked a nearby chair towards Danielle. As she was partially distracted he ran out the door and headed for the Kaiba Mansion.

"I lost him......But he's headed for Kaiba mansion" Danielle spoke in a hidden earpiece.

"Seto going to be home soon" Mokuba jumped as he anticipated the clock.

"Calm down" Kairi smiled.

Suddenly a group of men kicked open the door. Kairi quick reflex caused her to grab Mokuba and run.

"Get her" Kairi heard them yell.

"You can't come in here" A servant tried to stop them.

A loud gunshot was heard. Kairi knew what happened. She twisted through the Kaiba mansion as she tried to find a safe place for Mokuba to hide.

"Where do you think your going?" A man stopped her at a turn.

"What do you want?" Kairi pushed Mokuba behind her.

"Your life" He held up a gun.

Kairi swiftly and quickly kicked it out of his hand and punched him in the stomach. The man stuck his pain as he ran after her.

"Kairi, I'm scared...... What's going on?" Mokuba said with his watery eyes.

"I don't know....But I'll always be here to protect you" Kairi glanced every which way hoping for help.

"There they are!" A group of men ran towards them. Kairi moved Mokuba in back of her and prepared for battle.

"You against us....I don't think so" The man threw a punch as Kairi grabbed it and flew him towards his comrades.

Unknowingly Mokuba stood there watching as another man from behind grabbed him. "Help!" Mokuba yelled.

"Mokuba!" As Kairi turned around to see what was going on, the men took advantage of this time and shot their guns. Two bullets imbedded themselves into her sides and one to her arm. She screamed in pain as she tried to save Mokuba, but she was weak as the pain overtook her body.

The man who was holding Mokuba screamed out of no where as he dropped Mokuba and turned around. It was Kei.

"Grab Mokuba and run!" Kei saw that Kairi was hurt.

Kairi nodded and ran with Mokuba. As Kairi ran she heard a few gunshots and did everything she could to refrain herself from going back to help her brother.

"Kairi.....There's this secret place for emergency like this in my brother's office!" Mokuba remembered.

"Ok" Kairi nodded.

"Once were in...... only my brother can open it" Mokuba said as he ran.

The pain overwhelmed Kairi by the second as she prayed that Mokuba will be safe. Another man popped up and tried to grab Mokuba, but Kairi leaped and kicked in which caused his neck to crack and him to fall on the floor lifeless.

Kairi also fell on the floor from the number she just did. She grasped her stomach as Mokuba aided by her side.

"Kairi!"

"I'll be fine....Let's go" Kairi got up in pain.

Kairi and Mokuba reached Seto's office. Mokuba immediately started to push buttons and type on his computer. Kairi kept guard as Mokuba needed to do what he needed to do.

"Kairi" Kei suddenly appeared at the door.

"Kei! You're alright!" Kairi limping over.

"Not in any better shape than you" Kei lifted his hand to reveal his wound.

Many footsteps could be heard coming from every direction.

"There" Mokuba pointed to an opening section of the wall. It was small; it looked like it could only fit Mokuba only if he crouches.

"Get in" Kei demanded.

"Not without you" Kairi shot back.

"I'm not going to let you die! Get Mokuba and get in!" Kei screamed.

The men heard the screaming and trash their way to Seto's office. They burst open the doors and shot a few shots hoping it will hit. To their luck, one shot made its way to Kairi's stomach and another made its way to Kei's shoulder.

Kairi quickly grabbed Mokuba and slide into the compartment. It quickly shut its steels door and was impenetrable by any bullets, explosive, or cannons. The only way it was opened was by Seto's voice and eye scan.

"Kairi I'm scared" Mokuba hugged Kairi through she was wet.

Kairi didn't say a word.

"Kairi?" Mokuba held on tighter.

Kairi put her arms around Mokuba and leaned her head back. The only thing she and Mokuba could hear was Kairi's sound breathing.
