Chapter Three - Silence For Trust
A mere few minutes after five in the morning and an incident has already ransacked the mansion back into a sudden life filled intensity that thrived through everyone's bones as that very life was threatening to leave one of the few who lived in the large building. Kai stormed into the medical room of the mansion; a large white room with a single sanitized bed and medical equipment scattered here and there. In his arms he held the shaking and pained form of the dark skinned and white haired Snowflake, spasms of rough coughing making blood come from her lungs and slip from her lips with a few deep red speckles landing onto Kai's black tank top.
Both Ray and Tyson's father were in the room, the raven haired teen sitting nervously in a chair that rested on one of the corners and the taller man looking for something frankly around the medical room. The bed had its white covers pulled back, a feather pillow thrown off to the side to leave the mattress clear for treatment to whatever was causing the wide-eyed girl the pain she was so sternly feeling. Upon that soft surface is where Kai placed that fragile form, making sure to lay Snowflake on her side so that she wouldn't have to worry about choking on the blood that came form her lungs.
"Ray get some cold water with ice in it from the kitchen as well as a rag so we can bring her fever down, and hurry about it please. Kai make sure you keep her on her side, preferably curled up like she is so I have access to her spine." The voice came from Tyson's father, calm and comforting as always as he finally found what he was looking for. Pulling a metal looking briefcase from the cupboard above the sink he put it on the counter. Clearly marked on the front of the glistening steel were the letters -BBA-. The locks were quickly opened and the latches undone as the older man opened the lid to reveal several syringes containing a light green liquid, some syringes filled with a dark blue liquid as well.
The Chinese boy was quick to comply, running with cat-like agility out of the room to the kitchen as Kai held Snowflake where she was without any grave difficulty. Under his strong hands he could feel the girl's muscles tighten and contract over and over again, each coughing fit stealing the very source of her life as they came and passed only for another to follow quickly behind. He couldn't bring himself to look at her face, to see her pained and bewildered expression as her energy left her body.
Tyson's father snatched up both one of the green liquid filled syringes and one of the blue liquid filled syringes, their needles looking nearly deathly long as he pulled the protective caps off that kept the needles from being bent. He inwardly knew what the reaction would be once those steel blue eyes caught sight of those syringes he carried, but the concoction they contained would save her life and soothe the coughing spasms. Taking a deep breath he turned, feeling the tension rise in the room as his steps brought his large form closer towards the female teen laying on the bed.
"Kai… Can you find something to blindfold her with, quickly?" The syringes were hidden behind her back as Tyson's father made it around to the side of the bed where Snowflake's back showed clearly. The crimson orbs of Kai blinked slightly confused before glancing at the opened metal briefcase and staring at the needles it contained. There wasn't anything really near him to blindfold her with. Then it donned on him that he wore the very answer, his own white scarf. Pulling the soft material from around his neck Kai forced himself to look at the girl before him, stunned to see her steel blue eyes boring into his own globes of seas of red.
'Why does she look at me like that… Those eyes. It seems like her eyes can just read my soul with ease. I hate feeling so vulnerable, but why do I feel so concerned about this Biovolt experiment before me? She's…. human, just like me. That's why… because she understands more clearly than anyone else could. Because she couldn't help what they did to her..' Kai shook his head, banishing those thoughts from his mind as the white cloth of his scarf was tied around Snowflake's eyes to keep her steel blue eyes from seeing the syringes but also to keep them from see what he didn't want them to see; how week and vulnerable he was.
"Make sure you hold her there tightly, Kai. Are you ready?" Tyson's father was looking at Kai who merely nodded, not knowing what he was to be ready for as his hands held the fragile looking body on the bed down on its side, the female body curled up like the world was out to get her. As soon as Tyson's father placed his hands on Snowflake's back there was a sudden spark of energy that went through her body, whimpering through the spasms of coughing as she attempted to squirm from the comforting hands which held her down.
He kept moving his fingers though even as the body he touched shifted in fear. Tyson's father knew this had to hurt her, counting the vertebrae along her spine as his fingers passed along them through the sleeveless blue shirt she wore to the gym. Moving the blue cloth he found the right spot on the spine, readying the first syringe with the dark blue liquid as he aligned the needle up along with his thumb. As soon as the long needle pierced the skin there was a soft cry of protest from Snowflake, but the needle was pushed fully between the two vertebrae that he had chosen before releasing the concoction that it held into the body.
Ray walked in with the bowl of ice and cold water that he had been told to get, a clean rag rest over its rim. Unluckily for him he walked into the white room just as Tyson's father was giving Snowflake the second shot in the same place. Ray could've sworn that his heart skipped a beat, nearly causing him to drop the bowl in the process as he stumbled into the room where Kai looked at him coldly. That's when he composed himself and put his pieces back together, not wanting to seem weak in front of the older Kai.
The medical room suddenly fell quiet. No more coughing or squirming from the figure on the bed, only the rapid breathing that was left behind from the whole event. The last needle of the syringe was extracted from Snowflake's back, both now empty and useless objects being thrown away in the hazardous waste basket. A single droplet of blood escaped from where the needles pieced the tan skin, nothing more and nothing less as her chest rose and fell with a drug induced sleep.
"Thank you Kai, Ray. I'd like to know how this ended up happening because Mr. Dickenson well warned you about letting the girl strain herself doing things." Tyson's father took the bowl from Ray, dipping the rag into it before wringing it out thoroughly and folding it long ways and rested it onto Snowflake's sweat covered forehead as the blindfold was pulled away rather gently by Kai. "I understand it is early in the morning, but I want to know how this happened none the less."
'She got up in the middle of the night and went to the gym, on her own. The only thing we really know is that she was pushing herself like it was some sort of training that she had to do. I doubt we could've stopped her even if we wanted to.." It was Kai who spoke up, not saying anything about the fact that he had been in the observatory room sleeping while Snowflake was doing all of this. He still didn't plan on babysitting this girl, yet felt prone to do so by a part of his conscience.
"Watch her more carefully then, or better yet lock the gym's door so it doesn't happen again. She needs to recover from whatever is wrong with her. Even I can't understand why her body acts like it does, but she needs to rest anyways." While Tyson's father was talking eh was unwrapping the athletically tape from Snowflake's wrists and ankles, being careful not to disturb the sleeping girl as he spoke on. "I want one of you to stay here, and leave Kenny sleep. He was up all night talking with me. As form myself I am going back to bed to catch up on the sleep I just missed."
"I'll watch her." Kai nearly answered too quickly, receiving a strange look from both the other two males in the room. Quickly he added on another statement, taking a seat in the same chair Ray had been sitting in when he first came into the medical room. "I've gotten the most sleep out of the two of us, and Ray already had plans before he came to see who was in the gym. He can go film his little tigers and I'll just stay here to keep an eye on Snowflake so nothing like this happens again."
They both shrugged, Tyson's father yawning tiredly as Ray just grinned his sheepish smile of thanks. One behind the other they left the white room, closing the door behind them to make sure the room would stay cool enough, almost too cool. Listening to make sure that they both left Kai moved his chair closer to the bed before setting back down again. His deep red eyes watched the sleeping form; the coughing fits having left a thin line of blood along Snowflake's lips. Taking a corner of his white scarf Kai dipped it into the cold water in the bowl next to the bed, wiping the blood from the sleeping form's mouth gingerly.
Slouching back into his chair Kai folded his arms over his chest, leaving his once clean scarf draped over the side of the rather comfortable chair he sat in. Deep red eyes slowly slid shunt, blocking the light of the room from his gaze as his mind fell into a world of thought. 'She's hiding something, and I want to know what. No medical treatment I know has someone getting needles stuck into their spine unless it's something that isn't exactly legal. She must be using silence to protect us from something or someone, but what? I want to know what she isn't telling us..'
The sound of a body shifted on the mattress in front of him Kai drew himself back to reality from his own world of thoughts, deep red eyes bringing him back to the world he wished he could escape. Glancing back down towards the mattress, too white for its own good, Kai watched Snowflake in silence as she shifted restlessly upon the bed. The sheets soon became a mess, as it was apparent that she was dreaming something very unpleasant. 'What ever she has been put through I'm sure it isn't in the file at all.. Not in the least.'
As the shifting finally stopped Snowflake fell still, curled up tighter than she had been still facing Kai. The cold cloth slipped form her forehead, the damp piece of material settling onto the mess of sheets around her. Every once and awhile you could see a muscle twitch in her body, eyes moving slowly under their dark lids. 'Even in her sleep she isn't peaceful, plagued by whatever Biovolt had done to her. I no longer doubt that she was apart of an experiment of Biovolt and the Abby, yet I still wonder why and what they did to her.'
Slowly Kai reached forward, grabbing the moist rag that had fallen off the sleeping girl's forehead. Leaning a bit he remoistened the kitchen rag, wringing the extra cold water from the light blue material before folding it once more. As Kai went to place the rag back onto her tan skinned forehead she paused, suddenly having the urge to reach out and touch the soft looking skin. Crimson eyes stared, making sure that Snowflake was asleep before he actually brushed his fingertips along the teen's smooth skin as he pushed her stark white hair from her face. Soon his hand trailed down her cheekbone, gentle caressing her dark toned skin.
Passing his thumb over Snowflake's lips Kai lingered his touch there, gaining a questionable look as he gently pushed her upper lip back slowly. 'Fangs…' The K-9's on both the top and bottom line of teeth were lengthened and sharp along with a few teeth behind the four others. 'I would hate to be bitten by those.'
Steel blue eyes slowly fluttered open, rimmed with weariness yet perfectly aware of what and who was around her. The sudden awakening caught Kai off guard, not able to tear his gaze away from Snowflake's as his fingertips remained resting upon her silken lips. 'God…What am I going to do. She's going to kill me..' Oddly enough the female teen didn't shy away from the touch or try to push it away fiercely, merely leave it be as her dark blue eyes stared into Kai's crimson eyes.
As Snowflake picked up one of her hands and slithered it across the white sheets on the bed Kai quickly drew his hand back, glaring with his usual cold stare. Steel blue eyes looked hurt, almost as if a trust had been broken and a wound made with salt freshly rubbed into it. No sure look registered on her own face, but her eyes told everything for now, their own story that could destroy a whole city. Finally Snowflake moved forth again, reaching out and grabbing the freshly wetted rag from Kai and placing it onto her own forehead before sleep robbed her energy away again only to leave her falling into another slumber. A look, quick but there, registered upon her features; forgiveness.
Slowly Kai sunk back into his seat, releasing a breath he never knew that he was holding in the first place. 'I will talk to her in the morning… Maybe she'll be the same person I just saw and saw in the gym rather than the weak person the team was introduced to. Maybe she'll speak to me… Possibly kiss those soft lips.. Wait. What am I talking about?! She is just like any other person I know and have known. Weak.. Always weak..' Kai's thoughts trailed off as he soon slipped into his own slumber, crimson orbs slipping close to protect them from the brightness of the white room.
