Hello again!!
I'm actually sticking to my schedule.
Sadly this story is almost at an end! I think there will be either 2-3 more chapters. Not sure. Depends on whether or not you want me to continue. LoL.
Anyway here is chapter nine.

Chapter Nine - Hello Again
A wolf had been searching all day for his prey. Following the scent which led to the cowardly lion's den. Tala's blue eyes looked at this warehouse on the docks. It was now dusk and Tala was no where near ready to rest.
He had Lee where he wanted him. 'Perfect hiding spot too. I can dump his remains in the water after.' Creeping up to the warhouse Tala looked for a way to get in. He walked around the perimeter searching for a backdoor or opening. Finding a hole near the ground he silently tore away the pieces making the hole bigger.
Ducking inside he was greeted with many tools that were used for fish gutting. Finding it ironic that they would be here in his situation he grabbed a long knife and tucked it in his belt hidden by his coat. He then quietly walked around the room.
He peaked out of the room only to be met with a narrow hallway. Silently walking down it he peered into each room looking for Lee. Finding no sign of the lion he continued to walk around the warehouse. Coming around to the front, he was unprepared for the blinding light that came at him.
**********************
Back at the hospital where Kai was silently comforting Rei on the missing Tala, they were interrupted by three security guards coming into the room. They were not expecting the suspect to be holding the crying patient trying to comfort him.
Their original thought was to find a bloodied boy, either dead or near dead. After questioning Rei if Kai was a friend or foe, and receiving a death glare when they noticed that they were the legendary Bladebreakers from many years ago they gave their apologies and left the two.
When the security guards left the room it broke out in laughter. "It's good to see you smiling again. I don't want you going all morbid and depressed." Rei smiled at Kai's light humour but his smile fell when he remembered Tala. "He's gone to find Lee hasn't he Kai?" Rei asked already knowing the answer. "Knowing him, yes. You don't hurt something of Tala's without taking the consequences." Said Kai. Rei snorted. "You make me sound like a trophy or property." "Well you are, just very, very, very special antique property." Said Kai smirking.
Rei annoyed by this comment went to punch Kai only to have a larger hand place over his. "Don't. You'll only hurt yourself more. Your condition is bad enough." Admitting defeat Rei lowered his hand. Silence filled the room. Rei, becoming uncomfortable with it voiced his thoughts. "What do we do now? Tala's gone. He'll probably fall into Lee's trap blinded by rage and vengeance. Kai I'm not worth this. Tala shouldn't be doing this."
Kai stared at Rei. "Rei! You are worth it. Though Tala's actions are my own choice I know that there has to be another way. He's doing this for you because he loves you Rei. You should be honoured Rei, that Tala is willing to risk everything just to show you that what happened to you wasn't a thing to pass." Kai said seriously.
Rei's eyes began to fill. Kai pulled him into a hug letting the neko-jin spill his emotions. After a while Rei had worn himself out and cried himself to sleep. Kai gently pulled Rei off of him and laid him gently back onto the bed. Leaving his outer jacket with Rei, he similar to Tala stalked out of the hospital in search for his prey, only this time not filled with rage.
*******************
The light shone at Tala's eyes. He raised an arm to block the contact and sidestepped out of its path. Once he regained his sight he looked at what had caused him temporaily to be blinded. He noticed something silver sticking out on the wall.
Walking over to it he saw the it was the dagger that had hurt Rei. It still had the blood on it but it was dried. The dagger was pinning something to the wall. Without force Tala tore the dagger out of the wall and pulled the paper that was stuck to it off. Still holding the dagger he unfolded the paper and read the contents.
Dear Tala,
How unfortunate that you had to be the one to witness my handiwork. I knew that you would find me, well this here. That good for nothing traitor told you it was me just like I told him to when he begged for mercy. I'm in the mood for a game. Cat and mouse. If you find me before I find you I will leave. If not, well I'm sure you'll see.
P.S. Better depose of Hiwatari first if you want to seek your revenge alone.
Your friend,
Lee
Tala stared at the note before crumpling it up in his hands. Letting it fall to the floor he smirked knowing that he could go for some fun. He knew Kai was here but he was sure he could get him out of the way. Stalking out the door into the moonlight he intended on playing his role as the cat.
**********************
Okay so there is the awaited chapter. Short like the others, but I don't have a lot of time with exams coming up. *I'm going to die*
Anyway next chapter will be updated whenever it says in my profile.
