Chapter 14
They went into the city of Moscow by Taxi and found a Russian restaurant to eat at.
"Aww Man, the menu's in Russian" moaned Tyson as he turned the menu this way and that trying to understand it.
"Baka" muttered Kai as he read his menu.
Rei smiled sweetly at Kai.
"What do you want?" asked Kai suspiciously.
"for you to tell me what the menu says" stated Rei a little pout in his words "Why were you so suspiciously".
"because I know you Kitten" said Kai before reading the menu out to the team. Each ordered their food and drinks, carrying a conversation as they waited. Rei and Max excused themselves as they went to the bathroom, Max helping Rei because he had to takes his crutches no matter how much he used his kitten eyes. On the way back they past a group of men on a table.
"What we gonna do now that Hiwatari brat has ratted on Voltaire" said one as he drank heartily.
"if I meet him right now I'd kill him" slurred another. Max and Rei looked at each other before rushing towards their table.
"What's up?" asked Tyson to the flushed pair.
"Some of Voltaire's men are in here " panicked Max.
"So?" said Kai
"they've threatened to kill you" said Rei worry in his eyes. Kai pulled Rei into his lap ignoring the people who were looking at them.
"There are too many people in here for them to do anything" he said.
"but" said Rei. Kai put Rei back on to his chair.
"where are they?" he asked, Max pointed to the table just in view with a group of men round it, Kai walked across the restaurant.
"Kai" said Rei trying to stop his Koi but it was to late.
"I heard you were looking for me?" inquired Kai to the group. The group became stunned before becoming edgy, they had heard about the training this boy had been through and was thought to be a lot more dangerous than he looked.
"No" stuttered one.
"Who are you?" another asked faking innocence.
"you know who I am. So if you do not want to see me again then I suggest that you reframe from threatening me in public." Kai warned before walking back to the teams table.
The Bladebreakers sat in shock staring at him, not shifting when the food arrived.
"eat up or it will be cold" stated Kai before digging into his own meal.
"I can't believe you just did that" said Tyson coming out of the shock.
"I did, now eat" said Kai bluntly eating his food once more. The team finally started their meals, mulling over what their team captain had done and how the man had reacted.
~~##~~
Quietly the team made their way outside, Kai paid for the meal, no-one spoke until they reached the hotel.
"Why were they so afraid of you Kai?" asked Max carefully. Kai stopped unprepared for the question.
"I'll tell you later" he said as they walked into the lift. It was quiet late when the team arrived back and because of the early start they decided to go to bed.

//Rei!// came Drigger's voice breaking into Rei's subconscious.
*What?* asked Rei sleepily
//something's wrong, Galux and Galeon are tense//
*what?* asked Rei listening to the tiger.
//there is something wrong, Galeon is acting very tense//
*What could be wrong?* asked Rei getting up from his bed limping over to the bathroom.
//I don't know, just thought I should tell you in case, I'll find out more but the others seem fine at the moment//
*thank* said Rei as he drank some water ending the conversation before going into his own thoughts *What could be unsettling the others?* he stared at his reflection *could this Toleman really be back* he wondered as he limped back to bed surprised he hadn't woken Kai, he slipped back into bed hoping the nightmares would not hit tonight, but it was not meant to be.
~ "ROBERT!!!" came a scream, a still body coming into view, blood everywhere.
"come one Kitty Cat tell me what I want to know" a shadow came into view.
"mommy" came Rei's voice, the feeling of being held down, suffocating, a scream echoed through Rei's mind, he screamed along with it ~
Rei's screams woke the suite, Kai tried to wake him but his eyes were open but he was still in the dream. Tyson, Max and Kenny burst into the room, seeing Kai trying to wake the Neko Jin.
"Rei!" shouted Kai trying desperately to stop the screaming that sounded so despairing. "Rei please wake up" said Kai shaking him.
"what's the matter?" asked Tyson looking at Kai.
"nightmare" replied Kai shortly before turning back to wake his boyfriend. Rei finally calmed down, whimpering now and again his eyes clothes once more before focusing.
"Kai" he said looking at the team captain, tears clear in his eyes.
"go back to bed, he'll be alright now" Kai said not looking at the rest of the team, instead keeping his eyes solely on Rei. The three reluctantly left their team-mate and Captain alone. Kai gathered Rei to him, placing him in his lap hugging him tightly while tears silently ran down the Neko Jins face.
"you alright?" asked Kai looking at the boy in his lap. Rei looked up wiping his face.
"sorry" he said looking down.
"nothing to be sorry for, what happened this time?" inquired Kai forcing Rei to keep eye contact.
"I saw my fathers dead body" whispered Rei shakily " he was so still and blood was everywhere" his added before retreating back into the dream telling Kai what he saw and felt.
"do you know what the man?" asked Kai trying to get more information. Rei pulled away unsure if he should tell Kai, admitting that he had lied to him. He looked down and away.
"Lei's Grandfather told me in the letter he sent to me" he said still looking away " the man I think is Conna Toleman" he added before moving towards the window. "I'm sorry that I lied to you about the contents of the letter."
Kai got up walking over to the Neko Jin. "I knew you were lying to me" he said putting his arms round Rei supporting him while holding him close. "what else did the letter say?"
Rei hesitated before deciding to tell him.
"Lei's Grandfather told me that the man that killed my parents may come after me, because my mother wouldn't tell them where the Village was, He was hunting our kind. She left him with a reminder three scars across his face." Confessed Rei. Kai tightened his hold he could understand Rei lying for privacy but not when it endangered his life. He let Rei go turning the boy round anger in his eyes.
"you mean that someone is out to kill you or at least harm you" said Kai harshly looking at the boy in front of him.
"yes" said Rei quietly "I didn't think anything would come of it but the dreams and Drigger saying something is wrong with Galux and Galeon" he carried on "I'm sorry I lied to you Kai."
Kai couldn't bring himself to stay angry but he was hurt and knew that he shouldn't just let Rei get away with lying to him.
"I need some time" he said hugging Rei quickly. "I'm going to sleep in the lounge, this is not going to effect our relationship"
Kai walked into the lounge, sitting heavenly on the settee staring ahead of him.
*he lied to me, his life was in danger and he didn't tell me*
//You didn't tell them when your life was in danger// came Dranzer voice
*I didn't think that they could help me, but I know that I can help him, he knows it as well* argued Kai *what do I do Dranzer, I want to go in there and tell him it is fine but I feel like I should do something about his lying*
//do something then// suggested Dranzer
*what?* questioned Kai. Dranzer went into a list of what Kai could do with out coursing much of a problem within the relationship.
~~##~~
Rei could only stare at Kai's back as he left the room, tears silently tracing down his face.
"please come back" he whispered before walking to the balcony to the balcony to greet the sun that rose over the city.
Sorry another Cliffy for you.
