Chapter 1
It had been around three to four weeks since Kai moved his team into his mansion having basically given up on trying to train them. They always arrived late, there excuse; 'we got lost.' They had now retired to relaxing and enjoying what seemed to Tyson and Max, 'a well deserved break.'
Kai and Rei were lying peacefully asleep but not every thing is as it seems; Kai's mind raced as images flowed freely through his mind.
It was a dark and cold night that made the dimly lit room feel even more foreboding as a man sat coldly behind a desk, addressing a young boy in front of him with a set of instructions before sending him away to do his bidding.
Kai struggled in his sleep he; couldn't believe it, he didn't want to believe it. They were back. The dreams were back.
Kai quickly sat up, looking around the room. 'Good,' he thought, seeing he was still in his room with Rei, and lucky for him his kitten was still sleeping peacefully. Kai sighed, rubbing his eyes and looking at the clock. It was 4: 30 am. Kai fell back down onto the bed; he couldn't be bothered getting up to train. However, after a few minutes of trying to get back to sleep Kai gave up and gently got out of bed.
It only took him a minute before he was changed and heading down the passageways of the Hiwatari Mansion. He arrived at the doors that led to the indoor swimming pool. Kai chucked his towel on one of the chairs, as he headed towards the diving board; hoping this would clear his mind.
~~~~~~~~~~
Rei woke up to find himself alone in Kai's huge bed, sighing he looked at the clock. It was 5:30. Rei got up he hoped that Kai wasn't training again. He had hoped that Kai would start to relax now. After a quick shower, Rei got dressed. He ventured out of the room eager to locate Kai before he got lost in the never-ending passages of the Mansion.
Rei was lucky; it didn't take him to long to find where Kai was. He sat down peacefully watching as Kai gracefully dived off the higher of the springboards into the clear water of the pool. Kai surfaced to see Rei smiling at him from his position spread out over one of the pool chairs. He dove under water and quickly swam over to Rei's end of the pool.
Kai surfaced, getting out and walking over to Rei, "you're up early" Kai said, shaking his wet hair out of his eyes, accidentally spraying Rei at the same time. Rei glared at Kai, but soon started laughing; it was a hot day after all. Kai took a seat behind Rei, allowing him to lean against his chest. He wrapped his arms around Rei, having decided not to worry him with his dreams.
The day wasn't that eventful. Rei had managed to convince Kai to relax for the rest of the day. They spent their free centred in and around the pool, due to the unusually hot temperatures. It wasn't until later that Tyson and Max joined them for some fun, though Kenny was nowhere to be seen.
That night Rei went to bed early, accompanied by Kai. The time they spent lying around in the sun had caught up with them. Rei fell asleep almost instantly, though Kai still lay awake cradling Rei in his arms. He too eventually fell asleep, though it wasn't a peaceful one; the nightmares were still there. . .
It was the same dark room as before, though this time the man behind the desk - his grandfather Voltaire - was up and pacing around the room. Kai could hear his cold, harsh laugh as he raised the all to familiar cane. . .
