Chapter 23
Parties, Pools and Prank Crews.
Kai sat in his room waiting for the medics to return and give him the all clear.
"What a week." he murmured before lying back on the bed. His face was battered and bruised as well as his whole body, but he had certainly faired better than Nanasi. She had suffered broken ribs, torn ligaments, and several deep gashes from her attacks on the God of Fight.
"Nanasi." he whispered to himself before turning to look out the window where the sun was beginning to slowly shine in. It was just beginning to rise. He hadn't seen Nanasi since the cliff because they had been taken straight to their rooms where they were checked over and sent straight to bed. Kai looked over at the clock; ten o'clock. His check up was about now. The door swung open and Anna Williams looked in.
"Hello Kai, I'm hear to check your bandages," she said pleasantly and rolled in a trolley with the help of another medic. He grunted in reply, continuing to look out the window.
"Talkative isn't he?" asked the other nurse checking the equipment on the trolley.
"Leave him alone Neesa, he's had a rough night," she said defensively as she looked at his face and arms. "No doubt you're looking forward to the pool party that Uriko and Ray are organising tonight."
"Joy," Kai replied with a hint of sarcasm.
"He's leaping out of his bandages," added Neesa. Anna shrugged and continued to check him over.
"Anyway Kai, Ray said he'll come and get you at ten thirty to go shopping for a bit on the other side of the island," said Anna and she shoved Neesa out of the doorway roughly, dragging the trolley with her.
"Anna wait!" Kai exclaimed suddenly getting up with a wince.
"Sit down Kai," Anna ordered. "Nanasi's fine, she went through a transformation this morning she told me and nearly everything has healed, she's just got a couple of bruises and needs some fun. Well in my opinion she needs some fun." Anna smiled and blew him a kiss and a wink before hurrying out.
Kai sat on the bed deep in thought. He looked out the window again; he could hear Shina arguing with her father.
"Come on dad! One more night for the party! PLEASE!"
"Shina, we have a job to get back to," he argued.
"Na uh, I don't have to go back until I'm good and ready. Just because you're a goody goody!" A splash and a laugh and then silence.
"What happened?" Kai murmured to himself, looking away from the window.
"Sounds like Shina got pushed into the pool to me," replied Ray. Kai looked up.
"What do you want?" he growled, not feeling very nice in his confused nature.
"Easy tiger, we're going shopping," Ray said leaning on the door frame.
"I don't feel like it," Kai answered looking back out the window.
"Too bad, I have to get you out of here, the girls have bagged the hotel before tonight," said Ray in a pitying tone. "All us guys are kicked out for the day, for Nanasi's sake anyway. Uriko reckons she needs to clear her head so she can remember what happened."
"You mean if she wants to remember," Kai sneered.
"She does, didn't you hear her last night, and she was confused to hell. She wanted to know what was going on," said Ray shrugging. "Come on before Uriko burns my butt." Kai cheered up slightly.
"You mean if she doesn't use it as a scratching post first," Kai said smugly.
"You got a point there," Ray laughed. "By the way, pool party tonight, gotta get some good looking threads." Kai stared at Ray.
"Why?" he asked narrowing his eyes.
"Because, that's what the ladies are doing in the hotel boutique all morning, and then they're fixing their tan or something." Kai narrowed his eyes at Ray even more. "So I was listening at the door, so sue me."
Kai finally gave in and left with him. Long, Yugo, Tyson, Kenny, Max and Gado were waiting in the lobby.
"Hurry up you two! The food court awaits!" shouted Tyson. Kai glared at him, but then his mouth slowly slid into an awkward smile. Good old Tyson.
When they got back Anna ushered them into a separate wing of the hotel. It seemed Jin had hired her as Party liaison officer.
"Have fun for about an hour guys, that's how long it will take the girls to get ready," Anna added with a laugh. Kai leant against the window of the room, one hand on the window pane.
"Hey Kai, what's up buddy?" asked Tyson. Kai ignored him. "Hello! Earth to Kai."
"Get this straight Tyson, I am not your buddy," said Kai sharply.
"Ay a ya," Tyson said frowning. "What's up your bit beast?" Kai sighed.
'Stupid kid wouldn't understand,' he thought to himself. He watched the waves again, so peaceful and torment free. Kai however was forever tormented by his past.
'But all that's gone,' he thought to himself. 'Except her.' He broke away from the window as there was a loud bang behind him. It seemed the girls had graciously pulled a prank on the boy's room.
"That's not room service Tyson," Max said jumping off the wall he was clinging to. It turned out the girls had gotten their hands onto some fireworks and had planted it in a dummy room service cart.
"Hey there's a card," said Yugo. He read it aloud. "Graciously and lovingly yours Nanasi. Lots of sparks and scratches." Everyone laughed.
"I didn't think Nanasi was capable of that," said Tyson slightly bewildered from his position on the floor.
"There's a lot more things Nanasi is capable of that you will never know Tyson," said Kai coldly.
"Oh really? Care to share?" asked Ray smugly. Kai looked back at him and glared before returning to his motionless state.
"Ohhh, secret past? Or did you guys get up to something at the dojo?" asked Tyson smugly.
"Eww, Tyson!" shouted Max jumping on him.
"Heh, Heh," Tyson rubbed the back of his head and gave a goofy grin.
"Get lost Tyson," said Kai coldly.
"Tried that but found my way back!" Everyone groaned. There was a knock at the door. Long answered it.
"It seems my friends the party has started," he said shutting the door. They each left to change and then walked down to the party. Except Kai.
Kai sat in his room deep in thought. Nanasi had finally returned to him, but she didn't seem to remember him from the Abbey.
'She must have suppressed the memory like I did,' he thought to himself. At the moment he was dressed in dark blue board shorts that went past his knees with a baggy light blue shirt on. He looked up at the full moon. 'A lot like the night she left.'
~~~~~~~Flash back~~~~~~~
Kai walked back out of the corridor from Boris's office. It was chilly out and for the first time he felt it. It was only chilly to him because Nanasi wasn't there to make up some smart ass pun about being called to Boris's office. He looked into the sky.
"Ironic, a full moon," he murmured and hurried back to his room.
~~~~~~~End flash back~~~~~~~~
He heard the noise from the party. They were all having fun, but from what he heard no one had entered the water yet.
"Wonder what Nanasi's thinking," he thought aloud.
"I reckon she's wondering where you are right now," said a voice at the door. He whipped around quickly only to look back at the window.
"What do you want?" he snarled as Alice bounced into the room.
"Ah, do I hint a look and tone of disappointment?" she asked smiling smugly. "She's actually sitting out there trying to make the most of everything if you must know."
"Who?" Kai asked in a bored tone.
"Who else?" Alice gave a laugh. "You've got it bad kid. If I know Nanasi well enough then I know that she's looking for a memory toggle and I think you have the answer to that." She patted him on the shoulder and then hurried out.
"You've got to pay her back sometime Kai," Uriko stated from where she was waiting at the door for Alice.
"For what?" he sneered.
"For showing you what you need to be shown," Alice answered and with that they left. Kai sat there for a moment until something under the bed exploded.
"What the?" he got onto his hands and knees and found a note.
"Just to shake you up a bit.graciously Nanasi. That would be right," he growled and scrunched up the note before running out of the room to the several pools outside where everyone was spread out.
"Yo Kai! You finally decided to join us!" Tyson shouted from the pool lounge he was lazing on until Max tipped it over.
"Thanks Kai, I needed that distraction!" Max yelled climbing onto it. Kai smirked slightly.
"No problem Max," he replied and then wandered between the pools.
"Well, if it isn't Mr Sourpuss," came a familiar voice, Hilary was sitting on the side of a pool, her legs dangling in while she talked to Shina.
"Hi Kai!" Shina said brightly. "How are you feeling?"
"I see your dad let you stay," Kai replied avoiding the question that he didn't know the answer to.
"Well, after I pushed him in, he decided he needed a chance to get me back," Shina replied sticking her tongue in her cheek.
"You pushed him in?" Ray asked appearing at Kai's side. Shina nodded but at that moment was pulled under.
"Looks like he got his revenge," shouted Yugo from the other side of the same pool. He dove in and swam over, pushing himself out. Hilary sat looking at him in awe.
"Hey, how you doing?" Yugo asked goofily. Everyone burst out laughing. "What?" Ray and Kai continued to the next pool. Alice and Uriko were wrestling in the pool, Alice trying to drown Uriko.
"Ah, my cue," said Ray with a cheeky smile and dove in, tugging Alice under the water and then flinging Uriko onto his shoulder and charging away from Alice.
"Long!" screeched Alice and he came diving in to join the escapades.
"Aha! My cue!" said Yugo and jumped in, followed by Hilary. Kai kept walking, running into Henna.
"Hi Kai," said Henna standing up and walking over to him from her MFG friends.
"What do you want?" he sneered looking away.
"Gees sorry for breathing," she said huffily. "But I thought you might like to know your grandfather and Boris won't be getting away so easily this time. They're being held in a special unit that's run exclusively by MFG, more specifically by Captain Ryan Helfinger, the one you met yesterday. He won't let them get out to easily and if they do, they won't get far." Kai turned to look at her, first glaring at her, then nodding in thanks. She returned to her friends.
He turned back around and almost smashed straight into Jack.
"Hey Kai, heard you smashed up Heihachi pretty good," said Jack. He was still wearing the clothes he'd been wearing during the tournament. The little girl wasn't around.
"Err.yeah. Where's Jenny?"
"Bed time," Jack said with a shrug. "Saw Nanasi.she has one heck of a body wouldn't you say?"
"Couldn't tell you Jack," Kai replied walking away.
"Kai!" shouted Kenny from a table a fair distance from the water.
"What is it Kenny?" asked Kai slightly irritated, all these people were stopping him from his true mission.
"I just finished analysing Dreynzer and." Kai cut him off.
"Kenny, you'll never see him again," Kai said sighing.
"But.I suppose you're right," Kenny said shutting his laptop.
"Oh Kenny!" sang Tyson appearing to Kai's left.
"Ah, no Tyson."
"For once Tyson, I agree with you," Kai said finally feeling it was time he loosened up. They lunged at Kenny and picked him up.
"Three or four?" asked Tyson as they swung him over the pool.
"How about.now!" shouted a voice pushing all three in. They resurfaced and found Uriko, Alice, Hilary and Nanasi standing over them at the edge of the pool laughing.
"Not so hot now are we boys. Sorry Kenny, but I was trying to pull you back up," Nanasi said pulling him out of the pool easily. She turned and disappeared with Shina.
"So what did bring you out here?" asked Tyson sitting so just his head was out of the water. Kai slipped out of his soaking wet shirt.
"She pulled another over me," he answered shaking his bangs from his face.
"What with this time? I haven't seen her go back to the hotel," Long said slipping in beside them.
"No, she got Alice and Uriko to do it for her," Kai replied.
"The troublesome trio strikes again!" exclaimed Max before bombing them.
"MAX!"
Whoever thought that was the end of the mushiness could be wrong here. I have to admit this story gets a bit boring now, but hey, if you want to see what happens to Nanasi and Kai the stay tuned for the next chapter of DEVIL GENE!
