Chapter 10

Ray awoke slowly, his head aching. He tried to move his arms, but they were tied above him. He noticed that he was hanging from the wall. He realized that he was in a cell. Alone. Ray panicked, trying to remove the rope from his arms, but it burned him as he tried to get out of them. They were too tight.

"Kai!" Ray called, even if he knew that Kai probably couldn't hear him. He suddenly saw someone outside the cell. It was one of the masked men. He unlocked the cell, and came in.

"What do you want with us?" Ray asked, forcing the tears down.

"Why don't you ask Kai? Oh, I forgot, you can't ask him right now, can you?" The man took off his mask, revealing a purple haired man, his eyes like ice. The man smirked, then pulled out a whip. Ray's eyes widened.

"No! Get away from me-Kai!" Ray yelled, but the man cut him off, punching his stomach.

"I'm afraid Kai can't hear you…he's busy handling his own pain." The man smirked, unrolling the whip. The man ripped off Ray's shirt, getting behind him.

"No! You can't do this to me!" Ray yelled out in fear.

"Can I?" The man laughed slightly before striking him with the whip. Ray cried out in pain, tears threatening to come out. The man only laughed, and stroke again, and again…

"AHH!" Whap, whap, whap…A few minutes later, the man got tired, and smirked at his well done job. He wiped off the blood from his face, then got out of the cell slowly.

"I hope you enjoyed that as much as I did." The man laughed as he walked off. The laughs echoed in the halls…Ray winced as he heard it in his sensitive ears, the tears coming down from his cheeks, and onto the dirty, bloody pavement.

"Kai…" He whispered softly, the tears drying on his face. "Kai…"

Kai awoke hour later after his beating, realizing that his own blood had allowed his school clothes to stick to him. He looked up as a man entered the room.

"Kai, I see you're finally awake…I just came to tell you that your friend enjoyed his little beating." The purple haired man smirked once he saw Kai's face in shock.

"Boris, you bastard! What did you do to him?" Kai tried to get out from the chains that held him, but he knew it was no use.

"I just gave him a little whipping…It was funny…he began to call your name, calling you to come rescue him…but you never came to his aid." Boris smirked once more.

"You fucking bastard!" Kai yelled, but he was quickly quieted by the blow to his stomach. He coughed, coughing up blood.

"Kai, Kai, Kai…when will you learn…keep down that temper of yours, boy." Boris gave him another blow to his stomach, harder than the previous one. This time, he took out his gun, and shot his right shoulder.

"That's enough!" An elderly voice shouted behind the man.

"Yes sir." The man quickly stepped aside, and let the other man by.

"Kai…I've seen that you've changed quite a bit…but, the thing I did not like is that you still have that obsession for other men…" The man trailed off, shivering in disgust. He punched Kai in the face; the man's rings slashing his face.

"I thought that for sure we'd gotten rid of that habit…but I guess I was-" The man gave another blow to Kai's face. "-Wrong!" He hit him again.

"We didn't send you to that school to find someone to like, we sent you there because you'd have a good scholarship, and for once, you could bring fame to the Hiwitari's!" The man hit him again, managing to get Kai to let out a slight yelp.

"Surely this time, you won't be a weak link in the family…after you and your…friend, are dead." Kai's grandfather spit out the word friend in disgust. "Your death will come in 30 minutes…I might as well see to it that you get to see your little Chinese friend before you die." His grandfather smirked. "Take him over there." He ordered before turning to Kai. "You're lucky that you're getting such a chance…" He turned to Boris. "Carry on." He walked out, and Boris unchained him, taking him to Ray's room. Kai looked at Ray in shock.

"Bastard…" Kai managed before Boris threw him in the cell. He smirked, locking it once more. As he walked off, Kai quickly scrambled up to his feet, and managed to untie the uncautious Ray.

"Ray, Ray, wake up," Kai whispered slightly, shaking the boy.

"Kai…" Ray whimpered, slowly opening his eyes.

"No! Let go!" Ray screamed, not knowing where he was.

"Ray, calm down, I'm here!" Kai tried to calm him down. "It's me, Kai." Kai whispered, kissing his bloody cheek.

"Kai? Kai, I'm so glad you're here…" Ray trailed off, hugging Kai tightly. Kai was careful not to hurt Ray's back while hugging him. Kai broke the embrace, kissing him, exploring his mouth desperately.

"Ray, I love you, I love you…" Kai trailed off, burying his face into Ray's shoulder.

"I love you, too." Ray whispered softly, relaxing in Kai's arms…even for just a few seconds.

"Ray, look at me." Kai parted from him, then looked him in the eye. "I want you to know that whatever happens to me, don't cry, it'll only make matters worse…maybe you'll escape-"

"Kai, what are you saying?" Ray looked confused.

"Ray, they're going to kill me-"

"God, Kai, no!" Ray held him tight, ignoring his own pain just to hold him tighter.

"It's all right, Ray…look, I want you to promise me this." Kai broke the embrace once more. He looked Ray in the eyes. "Promise me that you'll run away once they send me to the execution room, promise me that you'll never look back…run, and whatever you do, don't stop." Kai managed to say, his tears escaping as soon as he saw Ray's.

"Kai, I-"

"Promise me!" Kai took hold of Ray's hand, holding it tightly in between his own.

"I-I promise." Ray whispered, tears coming out, the barrier finally broken all the way through.

"Thank you, Ray…for the love you gave me, the love I'll never-"

"Kai, please don't say that!" Ray hugged him tight; more blood flowing from Kai's wound…

"Ray, I love you…I can't loose you…"

A sudden knock is at the cell entrance.

"Your time is up."

"Ray, remember what I told you, remember…" Kai whispered, his hand holding onto Ray's tightly as they dragged him away.

"Don't worry Kai, I will…" Ray spoke with more tears in his eyes. Kai let go slowly. (I will…) Ray raced towards the door…he didn't know if he'd make it or not, but he couldn't break a promise…he wouldn't.
