Hey Again. I know the prologue and chapter 1 might not make since to some people and it's boring but the 'StreetBlader' part is almost near so please keep up. I'm still trying to put it all together so it'll make sense, read and enjoy. Chapter 2: Brandon meets Pandon
Brandon was scared and doesn't know what to do. He screamed and yelled for help but it was muffled by the sack. And no one could hear him because they were too far to be heard from this distance. He tried to kick and struggled out of the sack as he felt himself by the kidnapper and carried somewhere. His feeble atempt to escape failed. He was scared to death as he was lowered to a cold metal floor. The man opened the sack and grabbed Brandon's arm in a tight grip so he wouldn't try to escape. Then he grab duct-tape and wrapped it around his legs and arms so he couldn't move but squirm.
"Why?" Brandon said in a trembling voice. "Why are you doing this to me?"
The kidnapper looked at him with cold, hard eyes. "'Cause it's my job. Now shut up you lil' brat." he snarled in a gruff voice and taped over him mouth so he doesn't ask any more questions. Then he turned to leave and closed the door. He went to the passenger side and started the engine and slowly drove off.
When Brandon calmed down, he looked around his surroundings and saw he was in the back of a van. When he felt the van starting to move he began to panic again. Tears started to flow out of his eyes and he rolled to his side, trying to think of a way to escape but come up with nothing.
/Why?! Why does this have to happen to me? Momma? Papa? Where are you? HELP!/
As it was a sign, this green light flashed from his crest that hung around his neck. He had to close his eyes from the brightness of the light. When he slowly opened his eyes, he saw the steel panda standing in front of him. His eyes widened in shock before it began begged for the metal beast to help him. The panda nodded as it understands what he's asking for and slowly lifted one of it's silver/green claws and cut the tape on his arms and legs. Then it picked up the boy and placed him on it's back before it slashed the door open. From the sound of metal ripping, the kidnapper looked back and was shocked to see a giant black and white beast jumping out with his prisoner.
"Hey! What the hell was that.....Holy shit! What the fuck is that!?" he screamed as he saw it jumped out of the van.
When he turned his view back he screamed and as a truck was in front of him. He quickly twisted the steering wheel into a sharp turn off the road and crashed to a tree. He slammed his head on the wheel which honked the horn that caught everyone's attention and he was out like a light.
After the panda jumped out of the van, he quickly ran through the crowd unknown because they were too busy looking at the crash. He stopped when they reached to a park filled with cherry blossoms and city kids blading on the other side of the park. Brandon slowly got off the panda but lost his footing and landed on his tush. He looked in the green eyes of the panda who was looking straight back at him. He then got up and brushed off himself before he gave the big beast a big bug and was mumbling something under the tape so the panda slowly peeled the tape off so he doesn't hurt the boy, but the second he peeled off that tape he started to regret it. The boy began to thank the panda in a long breath and it seem like he could go on for hours.
"Thank you! Thank you for saving me. I was so scared. No one heard me. and my arms and legs were starting to hurt. And I was alone. I don't like being alone. And I-oomph?" The panda quickly raised it's claw and covered his month.
"Of course I saved you. I promised your mother and father I would." said a soft male voice. "Now I will take off my paw if you'll relax okay?" Brandon nodded as the panda put down his paw and he took a deep breath before he stared at it in shock.
"You can talk?! You promised my parents? Who are you and how did you got out of my crest?" he asked all at once with excitement in his eyes.
The panda chuckled before answering his questions."One question at a time, Little one." he chuckled and continue, "Now first of all, yes I can talk out like this or in your mind, I did promise your parents to protect you, and I can out because you called out for help. And second, I'm a bit beast, earth type. My name is Pandon."
All Brandon could say was, "Wow!" with a big smile on his face. "Cool, Pandon, my own bit beast." he said mostly to himself. Then something struck him. "Hey, Pandon, do you know why that man kidnapped me?" he asked with a serious face.
The panda looked into his green eyes for a asked,"Are you sure you want to know?"
Brandon nodded. Pandon sighed and slowly answered. "He was hired by your uncle to kidnap you and then murder you."
Brandon was shocked at what was told to him and begin to denied it. "Uncle Steven?! No, you're lying to me."
Pandon just shock his head and said, "Brandon, I wouldn't lie to you and you know it."
"But why?!" shouted Brandon with tears welled up in his eyes, confused.
"He did it because he wanted the family's money. It was passed from your father's side and went down to you, unless you're gone, then it'll go to him." Pandon explains. Soon Brandon had a horrible thought.
"Pandon",he started,"If Uncle Rich wanted the money and hired the man who was suppose to kidnapped me," he paused, scared of what he'll say next. "Was he the one who hurt papa?"
He looked up at Pandon who stared back at him and slowly nodded. "And mama?" he nodded,"next it's...." he pointed to himself, unable to say his name. Pandon nodded. It took a couple of seconds before Brandon could come back from shock and became hysterical.
"NO! Your wrong! He couldn't hurt me! That's impossible. But if it's true....Ahh!!! My uncle killed my parents! Ahhh! He gonna come for me next!" Brandon screamed as it finally hit him and he couldn't stop. "No, I don't want to die! I'm too young. I still haven't gone to school, or shave, and I'm only 4 years old for Kami's sake! And-oomph". His mouth was once again covered by the panda who raised an eyebrow at him and wonder if he should put his paw down.
"Breath. In, out, in, out." Pandon said, soothing the poor kid. After a couple of deep breathes, he put down his paw and luckily, he stayed quiet but was shacking a little. Then he look up at Pandon with tears coming out of his green eyes and the panda opened his arms which Brandon quickly ran to and hid his face into it's soft fur where the armor isn't covering and cried.
"Shh...don't worry, Little one. I won't let anyone hurt you." Pandon said softly and patted his head. Brandon looked up and blinked a few time to clear his view from the tears to look up at the green-eyed panda.
"Promise?" he asked in a whisper, looking so innocent that the panda had to smile.
"Promise." he replied with a nod. And soon found himself in another embrace from the boy.
Elsewhere
"What do you mean you lost the kid?! He's only 4 years old?!?!" roared an man with deep green eyes who isn't too happy to hear the news from his employee.
The injured man winced at the volume of his boss's voice. He place a hand on his bandaged head before he growled back, "Hey! You just told me to grab da stupid brat. You didn't say nothin' 'bout some robot bear!."
The man with green eyes snarled at his paid assassin as he made his way near a wine cabinet and grabbed a bottle of brandy. He poured it in a pitcher and took a long gulp, needing something to cool his anger before refilling it. Alcohol always help him with stress before and it hadn't failed him yet. Then he pulled out a cigar, lit it, put it between his lips and puffed. After he let out a cloud of smoke, he turned his cold green eyes to his hired man.
"Tell me," he said in a casual tone that unnerved the injured man. "describe this "metal bear" as you called it."
"Hmm...uh...." said the man try to remember. "It was big...ah..it was black and white but half if it's body was covered with metal and it looked like a....like a...uh."
"Panda?" the green eyed man suggested as if he already know.
"Uh...yea..a panda." was the only replied the man could say, wondering if he was missing something.
"And where was the last you saw them ran?" he ordered in a firm tone that confuses the man for a while before he concentrate on remembering.
"Hmm...." he frowned and screwed up his face, trying to recall the moment before his accident. "North to the other side of the city, I think. Towards where the Forbidden Alleys." he said, scratching his head, not all that positive.
"Good. I heard about those alleys." he said as he make his way back to his chair behind a wooden desk, with an evil smirk on his face. "It's run by kids who said to be powerful and ruthless, mostly to city kids." he explained.
"Maybe they can finish the job for me," he said considerably before he continue. "But just to make sure, I want you to go find and spy on him for 4 weeks. If he's still alive...kill him. Understand?" he said seriously all of the sudden that it sent a shiver down the other's spine and he quickly got up, about to leave.
He nodded, "Yes, " turn and walked to the door but stopped with his hand on the knob. He turned his head around without turning his body and ask, "Tell me, Steven. Why didn't you kill the kid yourself the night you killed his mother?" The one called Steven blew out another cloud of smoke before he answered with an expressionless face, "Because, my friend, the bitch hid the brat somewhere and I couldn't find him. And if I did, it will draw more suspensions to me. I can't take that kind of risk." The man nodded, understanding the danger of risks and left, closing the door behind him. Steven sat in silence for a while before he blew another cloud of smoke and looked at a picture of 3 happy faces.
/Your happiness will soon be destoryed, Big brother/
And stuck the burning tip of his cigar through the faces of his brother, his sister-in-law, and his soon-to-be late nephew.
