Chapter 11: Come Back!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"KAI!!!"
It was too late; by the time Amara got down the stairs he was burning it out of the driveway.
"KAI!!! YOU IDIOT COME BACK!"
"Amara what are you screaming about?" Kiki and Mico came out the front door, which Amara had left open. They were both in their pajamas; obviously they had been in bed.
"Kai just stole my bike and I think he's pissed off."
"We know he was pissed off but he had time to cool off," Kiki eyed her friend curiously. "He didn't have more reasons to be pissed now did he?"
"Don't look at me like that," Amara snapped impatiently. She didn't want to discuss this now. She wanted to find Kai.
"Tell me," Kiki demanded, taking a step closer to Amara, her hands on her hips.
"There's nothing to tell."
"Don't make me get it out of you Amara Jones."
"Stop it!" Mico stepped in between the girls. "This isn't getting us anywhere. Would you two cool it for a minute? We're all a little emotional tonight, this may not be the best time."
"Mico's right," Amara sighed. "I don't want to fight you Kiki."
"I know, I'm sorry," Kiki apologized. "But you know you can tell us anything we're suppose to be your friends after all."
"I know Keeks."
"Alright, moving on," Mico interrupted. "Amara, I'm sure Kai can take care of himself. He's a big boy."
"A very built big boy," Kiki added dreamily.
"Kiki!"
"What!?! He is."
"OOOkay," Mico rolled her eyes and tried to finish her little speech. "He'll be fine, he probably just needs to blow off a little steam and we have to get our sleep for the tournament tomorrow. Goodnight Ams." Mico pushed Kiki back into the house.
"Night," Amara stayed in the driveway, staring at the place where Kai had been minutes earlier. He had seen Nicholai kiss her.

BRRRRRRRRRRING! BRRRRRRRRING!
"Hmmmmm!" Amara groaned. Was this going to be a regular occurrence while the boys were here, her being woken up by some annoying sound?
"Miss?" Jackson knocked on her door.
"I got it," Amara picked up the phone beside her bed. Who would be calling at seven in the morning?
"Hello?"
"Sorry to wake you up this early Miss Jones," a man's voice came on the line. "We recovered you Ninja."
"My bike?"
"Yes but I'm afraid it's not in the best condition."
"WHAT?!?!"
"We're sorry, it apparently fell apart on the freeway early this morning."
"The rider…what about the rider? How is he? Where is he?" Amara was frantic.
"He's in the hospital miss…"
"Is he okay? Was he on the bike when in broke down? Which hospital?"
"Calm down miss, he's fine. I was calling to ask if you wanted to press charges."
"Press charges?" Amara questioned.
"Yes," the voice replied coldly. "He did steal the bike after all."
"Just tell me where he is."
"Don't you want to…"
"Not right now." Amara hung up the phone. She just may after talking to Kai but for now she would wait to hear his defense.
Amara dressed quickly in black cargo shorts, a white tank top and her black leather jacket. Since her Ninja was gone she would have to take a different bike. The rev of the engine caused others in the house to stir.
"Oh shit! What is she doing?" Kiki jumped out of bed after hearing the sound. "Amara!!! What's going on?" But Amara couldn't hear her over the loud rev coming from the older bike.
"Mr. Dickinson!" Kiki called, rushing back into the house.
"What is it my dear?"
"Amara just rode off."
"Kai's gone." Rei came into the kitchen with the other Blade breakers behind him.
"That means he never came back last night cause Amara was riding a different bike." Mico concluded.
"What do you mean he never came back? Where did he go?" The Blade breakers bombarded Kiki and Mico with questions.
"You'll have to explain on the way to the stadium," Mr. Dickinson shooed them towards the front door. "I'm sure Kai and Amara will meet us there."
"But…" they all began to protest.
"No buts kids, we can't have the rest of you late for the tourney."
~ At the Hospital ~
"Excuse me?" Amara rushed to the receptionist as soon as she was through the doors. "Excuse me?"
"I'm sorry miss, you'll have to wait," the receptionist turned away from Amara and continued her phone conversation.
Amara tapped her foot impatiently on the tile floor. "I just have a quick question."
"I'm sorry miss you'll have to wait," the receptionist blew her off again.
"Forget it I'll find him myself."
"Miss! Miss, you can't go in there!" Amara heard the lady call behind her. "Security!!!!"
"Bugger." Amara sped up her pace, looking in as many rooms as she could.
"You there…STOP!" Heavy footsteps were gaining on her fast. She would have to pick up her pace if she wanted to lose them.
~ Tournament~
"Where are they?" Mico asked Kenny. Mico and Kenny had offered to wait outside for Kai and Amara.
"I don't know," Kenny let out a worried sigh. "They better get here soon. Our team is up in half an hour."
"What if something happened to one of them and the rest of us have no idea?" Mico was getting frantic.
"I'm sure they're fine," Kenny took the trembling girl into his arms.
"I hope you're right." Mico buried her face in his chest. Kenny stroked her blonde hair.
"I hope I am too," Kenny whispered to himself. "I really hope so."
~The Hospital~
Amara didn't even look behind her, she just kept on running. Running in a hospital was not easy considering all the obstacles. She had to be careful not to knock over any patients. Amara turned a corner and hid behind a janitors cart. She watched her pursuers dash passed. Casually she wandered through the white corridors..
"THERE SHE IS!"
"Oh Bugger!" Amara picked up her pace. This time she ditched security by turning into one of the open doors along the hallway. "Geez all this for just walking in."
"So you're the one causing all the ruckus." Amara jumped. She hadn't entered an empty room.
"I… hmmm…I ummm," Amara stuttered. There was a nurse in the room, checking the monitors surrounding the patient's bed. She looked only a few years older than Amara.
"Don't worry," the young nurse smiled at her. "I won't rat you out."
"Thanks, I… KAI!" Amara rushed to the bed. "Oh Kai." He looked terrible, (which is really hard considering how hot he is. HEhehehehe) He face was all cut up and bruised, he had a cast on his left arm and leg.
"You know him?" the nurse brought Amara's attention away from the injured boy.
"Uh huh."
"That's great, the guy has no ID on him so we didn't know who to call."
"Is he gonna be okay?" Amara touched his limp hand.
"He'll be fine but he's in a lot of pain. So lots of painkillers for him," the nurse continued to check the monitors surrounding his bed.
"How… I…" Amara stared at his sleeping face.
"You should talk to the doctors or the police." With that the nurse left Amara alone in the room. Amara pulled up a chair so she could sit beside the bed. She gentle brushed his silver hair out of his face.
"Oh Kai I'm so sorry." Amara felt tears swell in her eyes. She rested her head on the edge of the bed and cried.
~ Tournament~
"The Lucky Sevens and the Blade breakers both managed to advance to the semifinals," the announcer commented to the crowd.
"And both without their captains," the second announcer added. "Think there could be a connection between the two?"
"I don't know. But it is rather suspicious isn't it?" Both announcers laughed.
"Why do they think it's so funny?" Rei rolled his eyes.
"I really think something's wrong now," Kiki whined.
"We'll go back to the house and see if there's any sign of them," Mr. Dickinson tried his best to cheer the teams up. "I'm sure there's a perfectly good explanation for all this."
"Probably got distracted having sex in some closet," Cat's cold voice rang out.
"Shut your mouth you bitch," Kiki made a leap for the pink clad girl but Tyson and Rei were there to stop her.
"Well I hope they're done by tomorrow so I can beat them," Cat laughed maliciously.
"You have no chance in winning," Kiki snapped.
"We'll just have to wait and see." Cat smiled and blew kisses to the guys before returning to her team.
"I want to smack that smile off her ugly face," Kiki hissed.
"I'm sure you'll get your chance soon," Rei commented still standing beside her. "But right now we need to find Kai and Amara."
