Thank you so much!!!!! Keep reviewing and I'll keep writing!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kai's mind kept running circles, he couldn't think straight. Seeing his grandfather shouldn't have been that much of a shock so why was it? As he stared into those cold pits that passed for Voltaire's eyes, he could see the satisfaction his grandfather was getting from seeing him react this way. "Well" thought Kai, "that ends now!"
"What are you doing back old man; I thought you were on the run?" Kai couldn't bring himself to say grandfather to Voltaire's face.
"I'm back to sort out my little empire Kai, no one knows i'm here that doesn't need to, and anyone else is silenced if they discover my secret."
Kai crossed his arms and glared at his grandfather, "so where is Boris in this, or is he 'silenced'?"
"Boris is too valuable to get rid of just yet. I have him tying up some loose ends in Russia before he makes his way to Japan, you may see him then if you would really like, and I'm sure you're missing him!"
"As if, Boris can rot in Russia for all I care!" Kai spat out the words, disgust was written on his face from the mere thought of Boris, the man made his skin crawl.
"Come now boy, you will be seeing Boris soon enough, then you can say that to him personally." Was the cooler response from Voltaire.
"Now why would I see Boris, after I leave in a minute, i'm not coming back!!!! I never want to see either of you again! You both disgust me and id rather live in hell then come near you again!"
"Pleasant little speech Kai, but you still have ties to this family that you can't just remove, if you feel that way then coming here today was a very big mistake!"
"I HAVE NO FAMILY!!!! You got rid of them for me! I'm leaving and I will not return again, curiosity bought me here just now but that has now been filled, it won't be back." Kai's fists were clenched hard as he said this; anger was all he could feel.
"No Kai, you will not be leaving, you still have Black Dranzer and you are still the only one who can control such a bitbeast. You will return to me Kai, I will give you no choice but to, and when you are back I will make sure you never leave again!"
"You can't make me do anything for you!"
"Yes Kai, I can."
With that Voltaire clicked his fingers and the door opposite the one Kai came through filled with men. Kai turned towards the front door. Too late, he realised, that too was blocked. There was no escape. "Subdue him, then give him to me." Ordered Voltaire.
The men rushed at Kai, no order among them, only six of them. Kai smiled as one man drew close. He stood with his head lowered, his eyes obscured by his hair, and his fists by his side. At the last minute his head snapped up, as did his fist. It cracked into the guy's nose, blood sprayed as the man fell backwards. Kai turned and kicked the guy trying to come up behind him. The man fell down clutching his stomach. Kai kept the punches and kicks going at anyone near enough, it was like the glove moment earlier, he was remembering how to fight, but he didn't know the memory, it was like instinct.
He had dwelled on thinking too long; one man had made a staggering blow to the area under Kai's right temple. Any higher and Kai would have been knocked out. The shock made Kai freeze for a moment, one moment too long. Someone's leg collided with Kai's abdomen, knocking the wind from his lungs. He just managed to avoid a punch aimed at his chest, it hit his arm instead. Kai managed to break from them as he stepped backwards. Then he noticed the blood dripping down his face, the blow to the head must have split the skin.
The men turned to face Kai again, ready to finish this. Kai stood in a defensive pose, ignoring the pain, ready to finish this as well. That's when the front doors burst open. The Bladebreakers stood in the doorway; apparently Kai had kept them waiting too long. Kai seized the moment as the men were distracted and ran towards the doors. He could hear his grandfather yell at the men to stop him. He smiled to himself; they wouldn't be able to stop him.
As he ran through the door he yelled at the others to follow him. One glance at the approaching men and they were soon following. They followed Kai towards the wall, startling gardeners and birds as they raced by. They clambered over the wall only to find Kai racing off in the direction of Tyson's house. They followed.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When the rest of the team got to Tyson's they found Kai sitting in the kitchen. He looked up at them; he seemed to have some trouble focusing on them as they poured through the door.
Tyson looked into Kai's eyes; they looked like he was tired, like he was falling asleep. "You ok dude? You don't look well, and you're a bit of a mess!"
Hilary glared at Tyson, "what a sensitive thing to say Tyson!"
Ray stood up and crossed over to Kai, he held Kai's head in his hands and turned it to look at the wound on Kai's head. Kai started to protest until Ray cut him off.
"Be quite Kai, we need to sort this out, Tyson, go get a first aid kit, max, get some warm water, Hilary, get a towel and Kenny, come and help me with Kai. Bring everything back here."
Everyone went to do as Ray have asked.
"I'm fine Ray, I don't need any help" muttered Kai, his head wouldn't stop spinning.
"Id has to agree with Ray and say you do need help, that blow to the head seems to have caused you to appear disorientated." Said Kenny, turning slightly pale from the sight of the blood still flowing down Kai's cheek, dripping onto his clothes and the floor.
"Thanks chief, now let's get his top and scarf off, it's in a real state. The arm guards can come off too."
They set to work trying to remove Kai's upper clothes, Kai not making it easy by protesting and fighting them off. With the two of them they finally got everything they needed off just as everyone else started coming back with their assigned items. No one gave Kai a second glance as they set about putting their stuff down and getting stuff out. All except Hilary, who then blushed and tried to busy herself with her towel. She knew Kai was physically fit but she didn't think a boy his age could be that muscled. She blushed deeper at that thought. Tyson noticed and went to say something but Max stopped him with a shake of his head, Kai needed them and this was not the time to be fighting.
They all went about fixing up Kai under Kenny and Ray's instructions. They had to clean up the blood that was drying on Kai's face and shoulder. Ray held a bandage to Kai's head to stop the bleeding. He had Max put ointment and a bandage over the bruise turning Kai's upper arm a very deep purple and black. Tyson worked at the bruising forming along Kai's stomach. Ray began to clean round the wound on Kai's head; it needed a couple of stitches really. They could take him to the hospital when he was cleaned up. Kai began to protest more as Ray worked, it hurt and Kai couldn't think straight enough to block the pain. Ray just carried on till he had Kai's head bandaged up.
"now that that's done we should get him to the hospital, the head wound needs stitches and I think he should have it checked out seeing as its affecting Kai this much" said Ray. The others agreed but Kai had other ideas.
"I'm not going to hospital, thanks for what you've just done but that ends here, i'm fine and am not going!"
Kai said this with such finality that he surprised every one in the room. Before they could say anything to change his mind he got up and tried not to stagger as he walked to the door, failing miserably. He glanced back and dared anyone to follow and stop him with a glare, then went through the doorway.
The rest of the team decided to give him some space, he had been through a pretty eventful day, and they weren't sure how he would react. They left it for half an hour before going to find him; it was about time to eat anyway so it gave them a valid excuse. They searched all over the house for him, calling his name. They couldn't find him. They all met back up in Tyson's living room, worried that Kai had gone off again. Then they heard the muttering coming from the sofa. They ran to the sofa to find Kai laid out, fast asleep. He was talking in his sleep but it was too quite for anyone to hear. A few collective sighs were released as everyone was relieved; they had done enough running around that day! Tyson went and got Kai a blanket. As soon as Kai was settled in, they all left to go outside; they had a lot to talk about. The boy asleep on the couch didn't even acknowledge the others presence at all, nor the disappearance of it when they left. His brow creased under the bandage, a moan formed in his throat. He was having another dream.
