"Leave them out of it Boris! They are nothing to do with this!" begged Kai, how could he protect his friends now?
"Don't worry; just think of them as insurance. They will remain unharmed so long as you do as we say."
A couple of the men in the car chuckled at this.
"I mean it!!! Release them!"
"Dear boy, you are in no situation to give out orders! We are on our way to see them now; you will be able to see how well we are taking care of them."
The men outwardly laughed at this statement.
"Now, blindfold him. I don't want him knowing where his friends are kept!"
One of the men next to Kai gripped his arms hard, forcing them tight against his sides. The other went to put a piece of black cloth over Kai's eyes. As his hand passed past Kai's cheek Kai pushed forward and bit the mans hand. The man yelped and tried to pull his hand away, but Kai bit harder and deeper, he could taste the blood as the red liquid started to drip from the bite wound. The man reached round with his other hand and punched Kai in the head. Kai cried out as the fist landed near the cut across his temple.
The punch left Kai feeling dizzy. As his vision wavered it was quickly covered up by the cloth, leaving Kai in the dark.
"Don't try that again, you will only get yourself and your friends hurt."
The threat against his friends made him sit still for the rest of the car journey. His head was still ringing from the blow. The journey was done in silence, it had a disorienting effect on time, Kai had no idea how long he had been in the car. He felt the car stop and fresh, cool air flow into the car as the door was opened. Kai managed a deep breath before the hands pulled him out of the door, not bothering to be gentle. Kai winced as he felt his torn foot snag against the door opening. He was pulled out with a yank.
They forced him onwards into a walk. No one was talking so the only sound Kai could hear were the footsteps pounding on the concrete they were walking on. Then Kai's feet felt wood beneath them. He could feel the dusty floorboards as they forced him to carry on. He could smell the dust and grime of the building they had seemed to lead him into. Then his blindfold was removed.
He blinked in the sudden, if quite hazy light. He looked around and saw he was in a large building. The actual building looked old, but the stuff inside was new and modern.
"Great" Kai thought "Biovolts found a new rat hole to hide in. He recognised some of the computers and machinery that they had set up. It was like the lab stuff at the abbey. Then Kai looked at a large see through wall in front of him. Boris noticed and indicated the men to push Kai towards it.
Kai shrugged off their grip and ran towards it. Just like he had thought, behind the see through wall was room, and in that room was his friends. They were not tied up anymore and ran to the wall when they saw Kai. He could see their mouths moving, their fists hitting the wall, but he couldn't hear a sound from them.
"It's soundproof? Why?" Asked Kai, still staring at his friends, his hands leaning against the wall.
"So they don't hear what plans are made in this room, and so you can't hear them. They will only try and persuade you to leave them to their fate" was the cool answer.
"And what is their fate?"
"Well now Kai that depends on you doesn't it?"
The men grabbed Kai again and tried to pull him away. They got half way across the room with Kai struggling before they got fed up with it. After consulting Boris one of the men came up behind Kai and hit Kai at the back of his head with a convenient piece of wood from the floor. Kai slumped as he lost consciousness and they continued to drag him away from his friends.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The bladebreakers watched as Kai came running up to the wall that separated them, he looked a state. There was blood running from his lip and the cut on his temple was sporting a new bruise. His feet were leaving bloody footprints on the wooden floor, and his t-shirt was torn and bloody.
They ran up to the wall and began yelling at Kai to get them out, Tyson resorting to pounding his fists against the screen, trying to get the point to Kai. They watched in horror as Kai was dragged away, as he struggled, and how he was rendered unconscious and unable to help them.
"Well now what?" asked Tyson "that was a waste of time!", he was in a bad mood from being woken up so rudely by complete strangers, then tied up and slung into a truck, then left in a small room with four of his friends while the other friend seemed to be getting the shit kicked out of him by his old enemies.
"Maybe so, but at least we know Kai is alive. I guess the bad news is, apart from our situation, is that he is in Biovolts hands" countered Ray.
"He will escape though, wont he guys? I mean he's done it before, so he should be able to again, right?" asked Max, trying to be optimistic in the situation they were now thrown into.
"Not necessarily Max, it took us to free Kai's mind the last time Biovolt got him back at the Russian tournament. They could do it again, and we wont be there to bring Kai back" answered Kenny, trying not to let everyone raise their hopes on Kai, it would be worse if they counted on Kai completely and Kai had turned his back on them, they needed themselves to get out of this mess.
Hilary sighed, "That's it, you guys have to tell me everything about what happened before I joined up with you, it would help if I understood the situation".
Tyson went to argue with her, but Ray cut him off, "Hilary's right, she should know everything. She might be able to give us an outsider point of view on the past experience with Biovolt and on Kai".
The last words made Hilary blush, and even in the dim light everyone noticed. She didn't want to give her opinion on Kai! She would just embarrass herself.
"What's wrong Hil? You've gone red!" asked Max.
"Nothing, i'm just, i'm just hot that's all, its stuffy in here!" she shot back quickly.
"You sure, it looks to me like something Ray said made you blush, was it something about Kai perhaps?" asked Tyson, he was going to embarrass her and he was going to enjoy it! Even if it did stem from being a little jealous that Hilary seemed more interested in Kai them him. Hilary blushed deeper at the remark.
"Leave her alone Tyson, we'll tell you everything Hil, then you can give us your opinion, ok?" asked Ray, some amusement in his voice.
Hilary nodded. They got into a tight circle on the floor and began to tell her everything they remembered from meeting Kai at the first set of tournaments to the situation now.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kai groaned slightly as he felt his head begin to swim. He wished he could go back to being unconscious. He didn't have to feel anything then. He felt really uncomfortable so he tried to move. He opened his eyes wide when he realised he couldn't move. He looked up to see his wrists wrapped round in chains that lead up to the tall ceiling, where was he? The chains were holding his wrists so that his body weight kept him from being able to free his wrists and escape.
He looked down at his feet; his toes were just resting on the floor. He wouldn't even be able to take the weight off his wrists to rest on his feet. No wonder he felt so uncomfortable. He looked around to see where he was. It was a long room with a slanted ceiling that met in the middle. Kai's chain ran down from where the roof met. Sunlight poured through the large and very dirty windows that lined each wall, giving the room a funny sort of golden glow. He could smell the faint odour of fish. Was he in a warehouse? The end of the long room he was facing was bathed in shadow. He could just make out a staircase in the gloom. So he was in a warehouse, on an upper level. Ok, now what?
Then he saw something gleaming on what appeared to be a crate by the stairs. It was Dranzer! He struggled a bit on the chains to see how much give they had. Hardly any. He sighed at the predicament he had gotten himself into. Then he heard a noise from the staircase, his head snapped up to see his grandfather and Boris walking towards him.
"Welcome back Kai, you didn't think you would get away from me that easily do you? Now you will have to be punished before your training can begin, you must learn that what you have done is intolerable!" exclaimed Voltaire.
Kai just snarled at the man who was supposed to be the only family he had left. Voltaire turned and whispered into Boris's ear before heading to the stairs and leaving them alone.
"Well now, it seems you are mine to play with! I have a special treat for you. I won't be punishing you directly, but I will be watching. Instead I have brought you a surprise, two of your old play mates. Come on in Tadashi and Leon, i'm sure Kai is dying to see you again!
