Wild-Roze : Hi, this is the first actual chapter I've written since this
fic was removed, I'll try and make it a long 1 for u.
A Happy Reunion ?
Kai massaged his temple, he was irritated, he wanted to go and sit in the club room with a dry martini like he did every night and watch the people who came to the SubRitz. He opened his eyes and they locked with the navy pair that glared at him from across the table.
"For the last time of asking nicely kid, what is your name ?!" He said, trying not to show how angry he was getting. Ray stood next to the closed door, it was plain to see that this silent kid was getting under Kai's skin.
Kai stood up. "Look, I'm only asking so I don't have to keep calling you kid, so do us both a favour." Spat Kai.
Once again there was no response, Kai couldn't deal with this any more tonight, he turned around, about to go out.
"Chase," said a voice, he glanced over his shoulder at the boy who had just spoken, "My name is Chase Hiwitari."
Kai whirled around, slapping his hand sharply onto the table top, making the kid jump in surprise.
"Very funny kid, but I want to use your real name so don't start getting smart by using mine!" he yelled.
"Why the hell would I want your name ?!" The boy yelled back, flicking his spiky fringe out of his angry eyes with a toss of his head, as his hands were tied behind him. "I don't even know your name so how could I use it ?!"
"Really ?! Well, then, who s your father? What's his name ?" Said Kai.
"I don't have a dad ! Well if I do, I've never met him, I take the same name that my mother takes !"
"Then what's your mother's name, kid ?" said Kai leaning on the table, his face eye to eye with Chase.
"I've told you my name , so fucking use it !" Hissed the boy.
"Alright.......Chase, what's your mother's name?" Asked Kai through gritted teeth.
Chase smirked.
"You really think I'm going to tell you that?! You'll just track her down and arrest her, and I'm not going to let that happen !"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Aruna walked swiftly through the streets, a tide of people swelled around her. Prostitutes stood on corners, offering themselves to men, the men either ignored them or accepted their offers. Some younger boys saw her and winked at her, then looked away when they saw her scars, embarrassed. People barged past her, she merely shoved them back. Someone slammed into her, she thought she found him familiar, shoulder length lavender hair and pale skin. He looked at her oddly before she whisked past him, putting it to the back of her mind, she had far more pressing matters.
Then, she found herself in the very place she had been avoiding for the last fifteen years.
Aruna looked up at the vast building, it was the same as it had been fifteen years ago. What had she been thinking ?! She eyed the vast queues of people waiting to get in, and she looked down at the small card in her hand. Kai had given it to her all those years ago so she wouldn't have to pay every time she came to see him. She prayed it was still useable.
She strode confidently up to the man in a suit and dark glasses on the door. When he spied her he pointed in the other direction.
"Hey, lady, the end of the queue is that way!" He yelled. She flashed her ID card at him.
"Oh, my mistake, right this way Miss." He said humbly, motioning her to the door.
As she made her way inside, she marvelled at the fact that this old thing was still valid, Kai really needed to take his security more seriously.
Kai himself sat at his table, he had left Ray to "Deal" with the boy, in other words beating the shit out of him until he talked. Finally he had his trademark martini in his hand, and he sipped it, eyeing the dancing girls, her let his tense muscles relax slightly, what a day! He looked at each prostitute critically noticing their flaws, no matter how small they may be.
Nothing was as good as her. It sickened him, what had she reduced him to ?! Now he couldn't bare to think about sex unless it was with her.
Click!
The sound of a safety catch being flipped off, his eyes widened as he felt the cold barrel of the gun against the back of his neck.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Aruna had seen him, sitting there, her heart was in her mouth, she had almost turned around and walked back out. He was so handsome. His face had been so young, and a little boyish back then, he had matured, and he had gotten a bit taller, his face had become a mans face, strong and serious.
She was filled with fear and desire, both at the same time. She shook her self out of this foolish state, she was here to save her son, she was determined not to mess it up. She smirked, Kai was about to have a surprise.
She slid her hand into her pocket, where her fingers curled around the handle of her gun.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kai froze, he didn't move, no one around them had noticed. He didn't even try and look around, he was sure if he did, then whoever was holding the gun would kill him instantly.
He felt the warmth of a body as it drew up close behind him, and a feminine voice whispered to him.
"You have something of mine Mr.Hiwitari." it said, it was so familiar, almost like...... "Let Chase go."
"Mirage!" He hissed.
"Yes." she said, Kai felt the gun remove itself from his neck, strange, he was surprised when he felt a pair of lips brush where it had been moments before. He slowly turned in his chair.
Ray burst in through the doors, he had gotten the name from Chase, the kid had finally talked and he couldn't believe it.
"Kai !" he yelled over the crowd.
Kai's eyes flickered momentarily towards his friend.
"The kids mum, its............"
Kai turned around, and his mouth fell open.
"Aruna !" he breathed.
She wasn't looking at him, her face was turned to the side, her eyes stared stubbornly at the floor, but he knew it was her. His heart was in his mouth, and it slammed painfully hard against his rib cage. Slowly he stood up, his mouth hanging open.
"Aruna ?" he said, this time unsure if he was dreaming or not.
"Kai....."She said, her voice was thick. "I.......I'm so sorry."
Her eyes closed, but a tear still escaped.
Kai shook his head, he was in shock, his woman, his wife who he had thought was dead....was here. This wasn't the place.
"Follow me." He said, he grabbed her hand, which felt strangely rough, and pulled her through the crowd, gritting his teeth and trying to block out the blaring music. He suddenly felt as if he had drunk too much, dizzy and light. He didn't know what was going on, the only think he knew for certain was that he suddenly had his wife back.
He led her to his conference room, when he had shut the door he turned to face her. Her long, thick hair hung over one half of her face, she was beautiful when he had first known her, now, she was ravishing, her exquisite body was, if possible even more perfect than it had been, he tried to stop himself from throwing her to the floor and having his way with her then and there. But there was questions, that needed asking, and answers that needed giving.
"I, I don't understand." He said, "You were alive all this time ?"
She nodded.
"Why didn't you come back ?" He asked, suddenly growing angry, "I searched for you, I thought you were dead !"
Aruna let out a long shuddering sigh.
"Kai, I destroyed your building, I even tried to kill you, why would you search for me ?!" She asked.
Kai scowled, didn't she get it ?!
"Why ?! I don't know why, that first night I met you, I remember being attracted to you, but I didn't know at first that I actually loved you. But I do, that's why I searched!"
"Kai...." She said, her voice breaking and more tears flowing. "After we were married, every time I saw you, I loved you more, but I was so guilty for what I did, I was blinded by it. God, I was so stupid ! I.....I set that bomb to go off. Six seconds before it detonated, Scarlath told me that I was pregnant. I tried to run, I couldn't kill our children, but it was too late. I managed to survive, but one of them died, I was left scarred, with one thing to remember you by, Chase, our son."
"Scarred ?" Asked Kai, she looked fine to him. His eyes widened as she brought her hand up, pulling back her hair. His mouth fell open.
The marks left by the wounds were terrible, he saw her shoulder and arm, and hand, now he knew why it had felt rough, it was marred with ditches dug by the fires that the bomb had caused. Her once porcelain flesh was now withered and creased, like a leaf which had been lush and green in the summer, then died when autumn set in.
His heart bled for her, such a beautiful creature, and now, her body was ruined.
"Kai, let me take Chase and go. I'll be out of your life, find someone else to love, I am a monster now, you can't still love someone who looks like this. Please, let me go." She said.
Kai growled. She really was stupid. Hadn't he just told her that he loved her ?! Love ran deeper that skin.
He grabbed her scared hand and drew her to him, running his other hand over her damaged cheek bone gently.
"Aruna, just shut up." He said. And kissed her. It was like coming home, and a shattering relief flooded through him, in seconds his life had been rebuilt.
Aruna responded, how good he felt, why had she not done this sooner ? Chase could have grown up knowing his father, but there was no point dwelling on the if-only's and what-if's, perhaps now they could start living as they should.
Kai pulled away.
"Aruna," He said, "Chase probably isn't in good shape, I......well, I was trying to find out who you were so I left him in Ray's capable hands....."
Aruna growled.
"Uhh, Kai, you got your own son beaten up ?" She shook her head.
*Men* She thought.
"Where is he ?" She asked.
Kai smirked at her, scowling at him with her hands on her hips, yes, this was his woman, back where she belonged.
"This way, he is down in the basement. You know, you've done a pretty good job raising the brat." He said, leading the way out.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Chase sat in the room, it was dark, so he couldn't see anything, not that there was anything to see. What had he done ? He had let his mother down, he snarled, furious with himself for giving in so easily, but that Ray guy, he really knew how to throw a punch. His tongue probed tenderly at his lips, tasting the metallic tang of blood.
As soon as he had said his mother's name, Ray, had given him a very startled look, and ran out of the room giving no explanation, the door had closed behind him, plunging the boy into darkness.
He groaned as he heard footsteps drawing closer. Not again. He braced himself, mentally preparing his body for more pain.
"He's in here." It was the voice of that man, the one that looked like him. Perhaps it was those inept Zone 1 Hardies.
The door opened, and light shafted in, he closed his eyes against the brightness, when he managed to reopen them he saw the figure of a woman in the doorway. His navy eyes shot open.
"Mum !" He yelled, horrified, how had they managed to find her already, what was going on ?!
Aruna saw him, and came to his side, wrapping her arms around him and placing a fierce kiss on her son's forehead, she leaned back and looked at him, he had a cut on his lip and a black eye plus a couple of bruises, but he didn't look too badly off.
Chase felt someone removing his handcuffs, he looked around to see the one who had caught him. As soon as he was free he jumped up.
"Mum, run ! I'll hold this bastard off !" He yelled.
Aruna placed a hand on her son's shoulder.
"Chase, its alright, nothings going to happen." She said, chuckling lightly.
"But he is after us ! He wants to take you up to the police on Zone 1!" He yelled, clearly confused.
Aruna laughed.
"Chase, don't worry, I know all about that." She told him.
"You..... do ?" He said, looking up at her, clearly confused.
She nodded and sighed.
"Chase, do you know why you have the same name as Mr. Hiwiatari here ? And why you two look almost exactly the same ?"
Her son looked at her, he shook his head, although he could probably guess.
"Kai is your father." She said.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Are you sure it was her ? You know, you could be seeing things." Said Ian casually.
"Of course I'm fucking sure you little shit !" Yelled Brian, his limp had gone from where Kai had shot him in the leg, now he had one more reason to kill that bastard.
He had seen her, he had walked into her in the street earlier that day. Aruna, Kai's whore. She might be scarred, but he knew it was her.
"That little bitch is alive, if I had her, Kai would do anything, I'm willing to bet he would die for her ! Ha ! This is perfect! Ian, I want you to watch the SubRitz, as soon as she comes out, contact me !"
Ian nodded, and left. Brian smirked cruelly, first of all he would have his fun, if Kai chose to marry her, then she must be pretty god damn good, he licked his lips, he suspected she tasted great. Then after that, he would force Kai to give himself up for her release, then kill the fucker and his bitch !
Perfect !
Wild-Roze : Well, then, there you go. Kai and Aruna r back ! But Brian is scheming away in that twisted little head of his! Heh heh heh, will he succeed or not ? Ur gonna have to wait till next time !
A Happy Reunion ?
Kai massaged his temple, he was irritated, he wanted to go and sit in the club room with a dry martini like he did every night and watch the people who came to the SubRitz. He opened his eyes and they locked with the navy pair that glared at him from across the table.
