Alright!
Sorry for the wait. I was planing on updating yesterday, but didn't get a chance to log on.
oh well.
But I have good news! I'm all finished with those cursed book reports, so now I'm free to start writing again....hopefully this sounds okay.
well, here's the next chapter hope you enjoy!
----------------------------------------------------
"What would you like to do to the boy sir? Should we release him?"
"No...not just yet at least. He may prove useful to us if Kai is unwilling to cooperate...as he usually is." Boris's voice replied. He pressed a button on his desk and began to speak again. "Have you located him yet?"
"We're on our way sir. It will only be a matter of time before we find him." A voice replied.
"He couldn't have gotten far sir, we were able to inflict serious damage to him before we left." Another voice added.
Boris chuckled. "Just make sure the others don't interfere. If they do, take any necessary action."
"Well doc? Is he going to be okay?" Tyson leapt off the couch as the doctor appeared from behind a door.
He sighed and hung his head. "It's hard to say right now. Whether he lives or dies is completely up to him. To tell you the truth, I'm amazed he's lasted this long....with those injuries, he should have been dead long ago! It's almost like that kid has a score to settle."
The three teens chuckled nervously.
"What happened to him?" Hilary asked.
"He was involved in quite a fight from the looks of it. He has a stab wound to the stomach, and multiple bruises and some minor cuts. What makes matters worse though, is that he has a pretty high fever from being out in the rain too long."
Some mumbling was heard behind the closed door.
"Here. Make sure he takes these." The doctor gave a small bottle of pills to Kenny. "Call me if that fever doesn't break."
"Right...thank you." Kenny replied.
Once the doctor left, the three teens quietly entered the next room. Kai laid on his bed in the center of the floor, tossing and turning in his feverish sleep. "Oh Kai...." Hilary fell on her knees beside him, wiping the sweat from his brow with her handkerchief.
"Man....this is bad. Who could have done this?" Tyson asked, looking down at his captain's pained face.
"Who do you think Tyson?" Hilary replied as if it were obvious.
"BioVolt?" Kenny suggested.
"But, I thought Boris was put in jail! And Kai made sure that it was put out of business for good!"
"Kei...." The blue haired teen whimpered softly.
"Well it makes sense....Kei's gone. Whoever took him must have mistaken the two!" Kenny said.
Suddenly, Kai shot up, his purple eyes wide with fright. He gasped for air and keeled over slightly as pain shot through his body.
"Kai!" Everyone exclaimed.
Hilary immediately pushed her boyfriend back onto the bed. "Settle down Kai! You've been seriously hurt."
"No....they....they took him....." Kai tried to force himself off the bed again, but Tyson helped pinned him down.
"You can't help him like this!"
"I can't believe I'm saying this, but Tyson's right. We'll find Kei, don't worry." Hilary said.
Kai sighed loudly and began to relax a bit against his pillow as his friends succeeded in forcing him down.
"Now, why don't you tell us what happened..." Kenny started.
"We...we were on our way back, when we were stopped by.....a van. These men got out......they attacked us......and took Kei...." The blue haired teen tried to stay calm. He knew that his twin was suffering, and couldn't take it much longer. He was suffering because they thought he was Kai!
Kai began to quiver slightly. Hilary grabbed his hand and held it tightly, reassuring her boyfriend.
"It was.....it was BioVolt...." Kai finished.
Everyone gasped.
"But I thought they were stopped!" Tyson exclaimed.
"That's why you went back to Russia, wasn't it?" Hilary asked.
Kai nodded slowly. "Boris.....must have escaped......" He was feeling dizzy again, and the voices of his teammates were sounding further and further away.
With one last sigh, the injured teen closed his eyes and drifted off into unconsciousness once again.
Hours passed, and it was now pitch black outside, early in the morning hours. Everyone had fallen asleep inside the dojo, exhausted from the day's events. Hilary slept fairly close to Kai's side, her head up against his arm while Tyson and Kenny slept not too far away.
Kai groaned softly as he tried to stay asleep, but it was impossible. Something was urging him to get up, but he couldn't find the strength. Just then, a noise came from outside. It was the sound of something snapped, such as a branch or twig. Kai forced himself up on his elbows, readying himself for anything.
Hilary moaned as her head fell on the floor, instantly awaking her. She looked up at her boyfriend with a sleepy yawn and rubbed them, trying to focus. Kai's face was serious, and his eyes flicked around, examining every detail of the room.
"Kai?" She whispered.
The teen hushed her quickly and tried to sit up.
Hilary immediately began to protest, but Kai had already gotten to his knees, and began to rise off the ground.
"What do you think you're doing?! Lay back down!" She whispered loudly.
"Someone's here....." Kai replied in a hushed voice, limping over to the door.
Hilary gasped as she heard footsteps from outside the room.
Kai motioned with his arm for her to back away as he grasped the door handle. He pressed his ear to the wood, listening for any signs of life inside the house.
Suddenly, he smirked, and thrust the door open, creating a loud thud as the wood connected with something.
A cry of pain sounded, waking Tyson and Kenny up from their dreams instantly.
Someone shouted and two men rushed for the open door. Kai cursed and closed it, holding it shut with all his strength.
"Ahhh! We're trapped in here!" Kenny exclaimed, noticing the room only had one exit.
Kai was losing his strength fast, and Tyson rushed over to help him.
The blue haired captain cursed again. "They're from BioVolt...."
"They probably realized they got the wrong Hiwatari!" Tyson said.
Suddenly, the tug of war match with the door stopped, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The two teens fell to the floor, their backs against the door. Pain was rushing through Kai's body again, and new blood was starting to seep through the thick bandages already covering his chest.
"You think they're gone?" Tyson turned to look at his captain.
Kai shook his head negatively, unable to find the words.
Suddenly, smoke began to rise from under the door, causing the two teens to scramble off the floor and stand next to their friends.
"Kai!" Hilary grabbed him just before he collapsed. She helped him sit on the wooden floor, and knelt next to him.
Tyson coughed. "What is that?!"
"It's some kind of gas!" Kenny replied, covering his face with his hands.
The smoke quickly flooded into the room, creating a small cloud along the wooden floors.
Kai placed his hand over Hilary's nose and mouth as she began coughing from the effects of the gas. "Damn....I shouldn't have come back here....I should have followed that van!" He thought. "I've endangered my friends now...." His vision started to blur as the door opened, and three black shadows walked in. Kai groaned as everything got darker and darker.
"Kai!" Hilary called as he fell back onto the floor. Tyson and Kenny also collapsed, and soon enough, the brunette was feeling the effects of the contaminated air. She looked up at the dark figures approaching, each with a gas mask covering their faces. One of them said something, but Hilary couldn't hear it as she fell next to Kai, joining him in the land of darkness.
