Chapter 5- Finally understanding.
His body crashed against a cold wall causing the smaller boy to peer his blue eyes open.
''Damn it.'' He cursed under his breath.
Everything around him was fuzzy, he could barely make anything out threw the darkness. Still, all around him he could he hear murmering voices. Lifting his head slowly from the ground, the teen struggled to sit up.
''Where am I?'' He suddenly felt sick but kept the urge to down.
A few blonde locks stuck to his face and he tried to push them away but found his hands were tied behind him.
''What the-?''
Panick began to set in as memories flooded back. He could remember a man pick him up and put a hand over his mouth, muffling any small whimper.
He began to tremble uncontrollably as a strangled sob escaped his lips. He curled up in a ball with his legs up to him chest. But upon curling up, he felt something warm rest upon his cheek. Or was he resting on something?
Jerking his head up, Max realised there was someone else.
Who was it?
He couldn't really tell with everything being shrouded in darkness and since the other person had pants on. Max began to nudge the leg with his shoulder but it didn't work.
A cold chill ran up his spine as if someone had just turned on the air conditionning. Looking down at himself, Max realised he was only in a pair of sweat pants, the article of clothing he was sleeping in before the rude disturbance.
Turning himself around so that his legs were where his head previously was, the blonde kicked the other person and received a grumble of some sort. Then another kick and another small noise.
''Wake up.'' Max pleaded.
Upon hearing the small whimper, a pair of golden eyes fluttered open to find darkness again, similar to the one he had been resting in.
''Max.'' The golden eyed boy asked, slightly lifting his head off the stone floor.
The blonde reconised the voice immediately and turned himself back around.
''Ray.'' He cheered, some hope filled his voice. ''Oh Ray I'm glad it's you.''
Ray sat up and tried to move his arms but remembered they were still securely wrapped in grey tape.
He too felt dizzy at first and a bad headache had set in. Ray began to wiggle his hands underneath himself in an attempt to get his arms in front of him.
Being fully flexible helped as he succeeded in bringing his arms in front. His shoulders ached at the new flexible position since they were constantly leaning forward as his hands always rested upon his back.
''Do you know what's happening?'' Max scooted himself over and sat next to Ray.
''Boris...'' Ray trailed off before tugging at the tape with his canine fangs.
The plastic tasted awful but he managed to rip most of the thick laywers. Spitting out a chunk of glue and sticky tasting plastic Ray watched as Max's eyes shifted to the floor.
''Oh no.'' Max felt a pain tug at his heart causing tears form and trickle down his face.
Max understood they were being used as bait to get Kai and could only imagine how bad Ray must of been hurting.
''But where's Tyson?''
''I think Kai saved him.'' Ray pulled with all his might and managed to brake the last piece of wrapping. ''Kai was coming to save me when they tried to haul me away but we heard Tyson scream and I told him to go.''
The blonde nodded and sniffled a few times. Everything was just so overwhealming. He feared for Tyson's sake but thanked the lord he was safe with Kai.
''Turn around.'' Ray rubbed his sore wrists and moved his arms around, stretching them.
Did as he was told, Max let Ray unravell the long duct tape.
''Did you think they'll save us?'' Max winced as the last rip pulled out small hairs on his wrists.
''Of course Max.'' Ray tried to smile reassuringly.
But before Max could ask more questions that confused his mind, a blinding light above them lit itself, causing their blue and golden eyes to squint.
''Ahhh.'' Max tried to block out the light by covering his eyes.
''A little bright?''
Both their head shot up at the icy voice that spoke. The light dimmed a bit and revealed the room they were in. It wasn't exactly a room more like a cell with bars blocking any ideas of escape. They sat in what seemed to be a prison cell with nothing in front of them except a figure approaching the cage.
Max trembled and leaned up against Ray who wrapped an arm around his waist, bringing him closer. Holding each other they waited to see the man reveal his disgusting features in the light.
''Won't Kai or Tyson be a bit jealous?'' Boris laughed and Max just leaned in closer to Ray.
''You bastard.'' Ray spat, venom dripping from his voice.
''A generous one at that since your both unharmed...yet.'' The last words rang in Max's ears causing him to burry his face into Ray's bare shoulder.
Boris removed a ring of keys from his long over coat and unlocked the cage. The steel squeaked as the rusty bars rubbed against each other.
Ray tensed as Boris grabbed his free wrist, almost crushing the bone and bruising the sore and swollen skin. He pulled him up violently, leaving Max's face in shock.
''No.'' The blonde jumped up, but was only shoved back down by the man's free hand.
The door swung shut and was locked again as Ray was being dragged away. He tried to fight it but only received a backhand across his cheek. He was too weak to fight off the pulling and fell to his knees.
''Your weak.'' Boris threw his arm aside as two more men came from the shadows that the light hadn't revealed and re-tied Ray's arms behind his back.
''I don't know what Kai see's in you.'' He grabbed Ray's chin, lifting his head for their eyes to meet. Ray looked away in disgust and tried to move his head away from the grasp ''Maybe it's because he feels sorry for you for being so pathetic.''
Max screamed in the cage and pulled at the bars wildly. ''Ray!'' He called out repeatedly.
''Shut up.'' Boris said to the blonde who gave him the finger. ''Tell him to be quiet if he cherishes his own life.''
''Max please stop. I'm fine.'' Ray looked over at the blonde who fell onto his knees. He didn't want to see his friend get hurt.
''I could easily dispose of him but it would be such a waste of my time.'' Boris smiled at Ray. ''But you, your torture and death would bring great pleasure to so many.''
Ray didn't understand. He didn't know what he had done wrong? Or why he was being held captive. He knew he was bait but why come after Kai after they all retired blading.
''Yet we must keep you alive because you are Kai's only weakness. You stole his heart and made him weak.''
''I didn't do anything.''
''On the contrary, you've done too much as it is.'' Boris stepped away from Ray, leaving him confused.
''Not only weak but stupid aswell.''
Ray let out a low warning growl at the last comment.
''But we can't put all the blame on your head yet that's where most of it rests. You see, if Kai never met or joined you all so long ago do you think you would be here now?''
Ray shook his head gently, indicating no. It was true but he had no regrets for what had happened over the years.
''Everything would of worked out to our plans.''
''But Kai was never with you's to start with.'' Max yelled out with a touch of shakiness to his tone.
''Persuasion is easy and such a mear task. He would of joined us in the beginning without hesitation only to uptain Black Dranzer and the utmost power that chip posseses.''
Silence filled the room. Either former blader knew what to say. Unwilling to admit it,Ray thought maybe Boris was right?
''You must be confused as to why our hate lingeres around you correct Ray?''
Uncertain, Ray nodded never letting his eyes leave Boris's pacing form.
''At the Russian tournament and Kai's defection for team to team, Kai was offered a chance to redeem himself yet refused the great power that could of been his to control. Do you know why?''
''Because your a sick bastard and so is Voltaire.''
The lash out received Ray a backhand across his mouth leaving him in more pain.
''No because of you.'' Boris pointed a long finger at Ray. ''He stayed because after leaving once, he realised he couldn't live without you, Kai became dependant of your friendship and kindness towards him. You made him weak. If he never felt such emotions he would of came back without hesitation or never left us in the first place.''
The Chinese teen couldn't believe his ears. The mad man couldn't be telling the truth. Could he? Ray and Kai only got together months after the world championship before competing in Canada. Ray hadn't realised and convinced himself he had feelings towards Kai till after the tournament ended and they all parted ways after being crowned the winners.
''It was only natural for me to be nice even to Kai.'' Ray tried to defend himself from the onslaught of accusations. ''I did nothing wrong.''
Boris growled and delivered another blow to the tonned facial skin. The throbbing sensation caused Ray to feel even more dizzy and fall onto his side on the ground.
''Ray!!!'' Max screamed to his friend, frantically trying to break or budge the steel bars.
Boris crouched down and sneered at Ray who mewed quietly in pain. His head had collided harshly with the floor.
''Pathetic.'' The old Russian walked away from the unmoving form. ''Put him back.''
The two men from the shadows re-emerged and picked up Ray, only to toss him back into the cage where Max was held.
''Oh god Ray!'' Max rested his frends head on his legs and tried to wake him from his unconcious state. ''Please be okay.''
The low pleas and tears were nothing but distant sounds to Ray as he slowly decended deeper into the peaceful escape from the cruel reality.
~Dream sequence~
His golden eyes peered open and looked around at his new surroundings. He was in a field at a far distance from a farm with stacks of hay surrounding him.
''Where am I?'' He asked as a light breeze rustled threw his loose hair.
Looking down, Ray realised he was no longer hurting and was dressed in his old bladebreakers outfit. He smiled and ran a hair threw his bangs, enjoying the sound of birds chirping a sweet melody.
''Max.'' Ray called out, getting up to his feet.
All he could remember was the pain and his blonde haired friend crying on his shoulder.
''Maxie.'' He repeated himself a bit louder and walked towards the barrier of dead grass.
Yet, no one seemed to be around to answer. Approaching a high stack that stopped at his waist line, low enough for him to jump over, a small voice called out his name.
''Ray.'' It was barely audible, almost like a hush.
Turning around, Ray could see two figures standing at a distance.
''Ray.'' The voice became different, more harsh and stern.
He walked in the other direction, and across the field to the other side.
''Max.'' Realisation struck as he saw his smaller friend was being held by someone alot taller around the neck. ''Let him go.'' Ray picked up his pace.
Max was dragged away over a hay stack as Ray came closer.
''Goodbye.'' Ray identified the voice and the man as Boris.
The words confused him, causing him to stop in his tracks.
Smiling, Boris struck a match and watched the fiery flame dance upon the small stick held between his fingers. Without hesitation, he threw the match onto the yellow grass and watched as the flammes spread like wild fire across every stack.
''No.'' Ray looked around him and tried to run to the other end before the fire blocked his exit.
Even with his cat like agility, it wasn't enough to beat the rapid element. A rising flame surrounded him, leaving no possible escape. The thick grey smoke soon made it's way to the sky, blocking out the clear blue beauty and white puffy clouds.
''No.'' Ray paniced and turned in circles. Light tears stung his eyes as he collapsed to his knees. ''Help.'' He screamed but everything was quiet.
''Ray.'' He heard Max call out to him. His body began to shake as he fell onto his side and curled up in a ball.
''Ray.'' The voice was louder and seemed so close like right in his ear.
He shut him golden orbs as more tears flowed freely down his cheeks.
''Ray.'' They shot open again, immensly to find nothing but a dim light above him.
~End of dream sequence~
His body shot up as he gasped for air.
''Your awake!'' Max cheered and hugged Ray tightly.
He groaned lay his head back down on Max's lap. He brought a hand up to his cheek to remove a stain mark. He then stopped and looked at his free hand.
''I took off the tape.'' Max informed and Ray nodded.
''It's not your fault.'' The blonde whispered into Ray's ear. ''You didn't do anything wrong. He can't blame you for being nice or even us for coming together as a team. He can't even blame Kai.''
Ray closed his eyes at the mention of his love. It had been so long since they were together or shared a long intimate kiss. The raven-haired boy knew around this time it was when they woke up together in each other's arms to the greeting of the delicate sun, shinning threw the shades.
''Kai just figured out that he had emotions and they weren't lost and forgotten.''
Ray smiled the best he could in the situation. Max was absolutely right about everything he had just said.
''I can tell you've spent time with your mom and Emily recently.''
Max grinned and laughed at the comical relief from the stress they were going threw.
''I see your finally awake.'' The awful voice returned,lingering in their ears, just like from Ray's dream, sending shivers up both their spinal cords.
~Kai and Tyson~
Upon sunrise, the blunette stretched and yawned as the faint beams on light landed on his resting face.
Kai sideglanced at the waking teen.
''Sorry.'' Tyson mumbled.
He had tried hard to stay awake but fatigue took over him in one grab, drifting him off into a comfortable sleep. It's not like he wasn't concerned about Max or Ray. He was, more then Kai knew but sleep was just so calming and peaceful. It helped him relax and keep a clear head for the task ahead.
The slate-haired driver let out his usual 'hn' and kept his eyes on the road.
''Kai pull over.'' Tyson sounded serious.
''Why?'' Kai asked, confused.
''You need some sleep and I can drive so pull over.''
He only received a grunt and acceleration from the car.
''Kai, I'm not fooling around. Atleast try and rest.'' Tyson reached over and pulled the keys out of the ignition causing the car to come to a hault right in the middle of the empty road.
Kai glared and tried to grab the keys away from Tyson.
''Get out.'' Tyson pointed to the drivers door.
There was no point in arguing, it would only consume the little time they had. Yet he would try anyway.
''You don't know where your going.'' Kai didn't budge, relying on logic to get Tyson to give him back his keys.
''How about you tell me. I know Japan just as well as you do.''
Kai sighed and gave in.
''Do you remember the old warehouse where we first met?''
Tyson nodded and took Kai's seat as he got out of the car and into the passengers seat.
''Go there.''
With that said, they were off in a flash. Kai leaned his head in his palm that was rested on the door. He hated not driving. But all he could think about was Ray.
'I'm going to get you Boris if it's the last thing I do.' Kai told himself and yawned as he looked up at the rising sun. 'That's a promise.'
Before he knew it, sleep to seemed to pull at him to bring him off into a light slumber. His eyes closed and breathing was much lighter and less frequent.
''Told ya you needed some sleep.'' Tyson laughed a bit and sighed.
''We're coming guys.'' He whispered into the wind as it difted off.
What did you all think? This is probably one of my better chapters, or so I find but I'm not really liking this story. If it keeps getting read then I'll keep updating. Speaking of updates, lately they've been late. Well, my computer has just been reformated so everything is slow for some odd reason plus I'm sick. So my brain functions slower then normal and I never feel like typing.
Kai: It's your own fault for getting sick.
It is not!
Kai: You walked in the rain to school.
My mom stole my umbrella! *glares*
Review and maybe it will help me feel better!
(1) Bastard in Japanese, it's not like many people don't know what it means.
(2) If you don't understand read Delirious Love by me of course!
