Meeting You
Chapter 24: No Pain No Gain
By: me
Hey guys! I hope you all have enjoyed the story so far! Thanks for all the reviews much appreciation! Anyway here's the chap…
Kai was lying on his bed. The tournament had been called off for the day after the damage inflicted on the stadium and the widespread panic.
Unknown to Kai, Dr. Ari was watching the battle and she had been impressed.
He stared up at the ceiling as anger boiled in his veins.
"Why didn't they help! Mr. Dickenson knows what happened with Boris last time! Damn it! I know something is wrong…Nami must be hurt…who knows maybe even killed…wait no Boris needs her to control the dark bit beast and get Dranzer."
"…he knows that she affects me…wait what? She affects me…but how? I know I care for her but is there something mor…no! She's just a friend and she's probably hurt…I help her some how…but how?" Kai rolled over in frustration.
"Nami…"
Kenji had done his job and left Nami withering on the floor with her rumpled up clothes returned to their proper places.
Tears poured down her pale cheeks staining cuts with crystal droplets.
Nami was lying on the cold floor with her arms wrapped around her shivering form. Dried blood coated her skin as well as new cuts and bruises.
Her skin was torn in many places. "As well as me…I'm torn…nothing but a broken doll…" she thought.
She felt as if someone had not only broken her but they broke her soul and the shattered pieces hurt her all over.
She rolled over and got up and staggered to the doorway.
"Tala…" was the first thought that entered her mind as she went to the cells where he was sure to be locked away.
She ignored the guard who sneered as she limped to find him.
"Give me the keys." she hissed at one.
"I don't think so." he sneered back.
"I do now give me the friggin' keys!" she snarled grabbing him by the collar. "Okay!" the guard shoved them in to her hands and walked off muttering something that sounded much like 'no wonder they act like they haven't seen daylight in years…'
Nami caught a glimpse of red hair in the very last cell which seemed to be the darkest one there.
Tala was lying asleep in the corner of the cramped cell. His normal strangely styled red hair was ruffled up and hanging all over the place and he looked like he had been slapped pretty hard thanks to the rather large bruise forming on his cheek.
Nami bent down as she felt tears forming in her eyes.
"I'm sorry Tala…you got hurt because of me…" she whispered. Tala jerked awake at the soft noise.
"Nami? What? NAMI! Oh my god…are you okay?" Tala exclaimed. Then Nami cracked. Tears flowed down her face at a rapid rate.
"Oh Nami…" Tala whispered as he pulled her into an embrace (A/n: NO! This is strictly like a comforting brother sister moment! This fic is strictly Nami/Kai!)
Nami sobbed in to his shoulder while telling him what happened.
"Shh…it's okay." he stroked her hair gently.
"I…I…Tala you don't know…it hurt…so bad…" she whispered.
"Calm down…it's okay." he murmured, "I have an idea…we're going to get your memories back…"
"Kai?" Ray asked quietly after knocking on his door.
"Come in…" Kai muttered.
"Kai? What are you doing?" Ray asked cautiously.
"What does it look like?" Kai snapped.
"Urm…" Ray started to think what it looked like.
"Sorry, it's just I have a bad feeling. I'm thinking of a way to get her out." Kai sighed sitting up.
"Did you just apologize?" Ray asked staring in disbelief.
"Yeah so?" Kai raised one eyebrow.
"Oh nothing…I'm going to help you. Thought of anything yet?" Ray said noticing the irritable look on Kai's face.
"Get in, grab her, and get out." Kai said ticking the three off his fingers with a clear look of distaste.
"Seriously?" Ray asked.
"Yep, that's all we have to do! It'll be so easy to get in without being caught and the risk of getting killed!" Kai said sarcastically.
"Okay…maybe we need a strategy." Ray replied stating the slow and very obvious plan.
"Since I've already went there, I know what kind of security there is. Problem is they made a new building since the last one collapsed." Kai said.
"When are we going?" Ray asked.
"We?" Kai asked.
"Yes, you, me, Tyson, Max and Kenny, Hilary can't come…too risky. You aren't thinking of going by yourself are you?" Ray asked.
"Actually I was…but I have another…" Kai started when the door was thrown open. Yes thrown open.
Tyson, Max, Hilary and Kenny fell in a crumpled heap on the carpet in Kai's room.
"I'm COMING!" Hilary said jumping up.
Ray, Max, Tyson, and Kenny sweat dropped anime style while Kai's eyebrow twitched.
"You can't. I've decided. I'll go after Nami myself; Tyson and Ray get the keys and try to open any cell that you find, tell them that you have to get out on Boris's order, the building is going to self destruct. Max and Kenny you are going to tell us if anyone is on our trail and you have to call Hilary so she can get the police there as well as Mr. Dickenson." Kai said.
"Self Destruct?" Tyson asked blankly.
"You know when a building goes 'kaboom'?" Kai asked irritably.
"I know what it means! But are you really going to blow it up?" Tyson asked.
"No point in keeping the route to hell open for Boris to come back to." Kai said with a shrug.
"You're serious about blowing it up!" Everyone asked incredulously.
Kai nodded with a serious expression.
"Okay…" Max said slowly.
"Kenny, can you hack in to their data bases? I need blueprint plans." Kai said sharply ignoring the self destruction plan.
"Do you have anything or any password to make a connection to their computers?" Kenny asked opening up the labtop.
"Try 1-3-8-5-7-2." Kai said. (A/n: Remember the code Nami memorized in chapter 21?)
"Dizzi…" Kenny started but Dizzi's voice cut him off.
"Already on it." Dizzi stated, "Here it is…the official computer screen of Biovolt."
"Great…oh dear." Kenny started staring at the screen.
"What?" Kai asked looking over.
"Way to many files we'll have to start from scratch to look for Blue prints." Kenny said typing in something neither Kai nor the team could make out.
"Dizzi look up in to the search engine, hack the mother board and look up blueprints." Kenny stated.
"Yes Chief. I've come up with over 20 megabytes of things with 'blueprints' can we be more specific?" Dizzi's mechanical voice asked.
"Building plans?" Kenny asked.
"Perfect. I found two files.One is labeled BV138572 and BV138572/N." Dizzi said.
"Second one." Kai said automatically, he crossed his arms and leaned back in to his chair.
"Success!" Dizzi stated, "Here are the blueprints for the new building!"
"Yes!" everyone except Kai cheered.
Kenny typed in the file number and up came a plan of a new building.
"Let me see." Kai said.
Kenny showed Kai.
"Print it." Kai said, "Get ready to go."
"Look Nami, we have to get there right now if you want them back. Nobody except the guards are awake now. You know that you will forget everything that happened…you'll forget what Kenji did…you'll hate me again." Tala whispered.
Nami nodded sadly.
"Come on, we'll just say that I'm taking you back to our room if we're caught." Tala said to which Nami nodded.
They both unlocked the cell door once more with the keys Nami had and quietly dashed down the labyrinth of the halls to the room Nami had once been in to be brain washed.
"Are you sure?" Tala asked.
"Yes…" Nami whispered shutting her eyes as if to relive some stress.
"Kai are you sure?" Tyson asked again.
"YES! For the final time now shut up! We're almost there." Kai hissed.
"But…" Max started.
"We're getting in and getting out with Nami with us, my final decision." Kai snapped.
"Alright." Everyone sighed.
They had all stopped for a break when Tyson had inquired whether it was necessary to blow up Biovolt.
"Kai?" Tyson asked.
"WHAT?" Kai snarled impatiently.
"We're with you man, all the way." Tyson said.
Kai stared blankly before nodding and smiling.
Nami stepped in to the tube and the glass slid in to place around her.
"Thank you Tala." Nami said softly as she put a hand on the glass.
"You're welcome." Tala said with a smile before he started to continue the process. He hit the last key and a light blue mist poured out from the top of the tube.
The mist was going to make her unconscious and then the liquid would pour in. This time though no wires were connected to her.
Tala went to a large cabinet and pressed a button which opened a locked drawer.
He opened it and pulled out a long tube filled with a strange blue green liquid and had small red specks which looked like blood cells.
On the tube there was a label with Nami written on there.
He gave it a disgusted look before going back to the machine and typing in a few more buttons and then turning the tube upside down in to a flask that hung out of the side of the tube Nami was in.
Slowly the flask was drained and a diminutive injection came out from the top of the tube, above Nami's head.
It was lowered down and injected in to her arm. Nami winced in pain. It felt like white hot poison was spreading through her body.
Then a strange blue solution started to flood up the bottom, making it's way up.
Nami smiled weakly at Tala before the liquid encased her completely and she fell in to a deep state of unconsciousness.
Kai and the others stopped and panted a bit. They had arrived near the abbey.
All of them were concealed in a bush away from any cameras.
"Now what do we do?" Ray asked.
"We follow out with the plan…" Kai whispered, "Avoid the cameras at all costs…use your blades if something happens to be the problem…and you have 15 minutes till the place goes down, set your watches and turn on your radios…let's go."
Everyone slowly crept out of the bushes and ran inside to the air vent.
Kai couldn't help but smirk. "Don't these fools ever learn?" he thought before easily slipping in.
Everyone managed to get in except Tyson had a small problem seeing as he had gained a little bit of weight…
"Alright as soon as we get to our own turning point start your watches and use your maps…the air ventilation pipes may turn on so be careful…ready? Go!" Kai hissed as he immediately took off to find out where Nami was. (Radio is like walkie talkie)
"Wow…that was fast," Ray trailed off, "Come on, we better move."
Kai quietly removed the screws to the draft vent on the metal landing beneath him. His eyebrows narrowed in confusion. There was a strange noise of a liquid draining rapidly.
What was going on down there?
Kai had looked at a tracer on the mini computer Kenny had given him to find Neptune which Nami undoubtedly still had it.
Kai quietly placed the metal air vent down on the landing he was sitting in.
He caught sign of red hair.
"Tala…" was the first thing that came to Kai's mind.
He jumped and landed in a crouch position and quickly stood up.
"Tala!" he asked.
"Kai! How did you get in here?" Tala asked in surprise.
"What's going on?" Kai demanded as he pointed to the draining tube. Nami was still unconscious.
"I gave her back her memories!" Tala said, "Hurry up and take her out when the thing opens and can you explain what's with you sneaking in here!"
The tube drained the remaining blue liquid and opened freeing a mass of steam. Nami fell forward and Kai immediately wrapped his arms around her in a tight embrace.
"I'm so glad she's alright." he whispered.
"Not…technically…" Taka whispered hesitantly.
"What d'you mean?" Kai asked.
"Kenji…was sent to…rape her and he got away with it." Tala said barely above a whisper. Kai's eyes widened as he felt something hit him in the gut.
"Are you serious?" Kai whispered.
"Yes…she told me…" Tala muttered. Kai didn't know what to say so he looked at his watch.
"We don't have any time!" Kai exclaimed.
"What?" Tala asked, confused. "Look, we're going to get all the abbey kids out and we have to self destruct the building…come on hurry up." Kai said turning on his heel and carried Nami bridal style in his arms.
"The beyblades! Wolborg! I have to get Wolborg." Tala said as he ran in to the testing room.
"Damn it! I know it's here but what's the password!" Tala muttered as he typed in some numbers. Suddenly a chunk of plaster fell from the ceiling.
"Tala the password is 138572 then press 1 through 7!" Nami said vaguely, she had awoken just now feeling very confused.
"What!" Kai asked surprised that she had regained consciousness. Tala punched in the numbers and released all the blades behind the shatter proof glass. Tala gathered up all the blades and shoved them in to his pockets.
"Kai, I'll see you guys outside! I have to get the rest of the boys! They have their own quarters." Tala said before dashing off.
Kai pulled out the radio he was carrying.
"Did you guys get out!" he asked as he pulled Nami's arm and ran through the hallways not caring anymore about security.
Large chunks of plaster fell over random places as well as the metal pipes causing a large amount of destruction. Nami let out a yelp as she roughly pushed Kai out of the way. The chunk landed on her foot.
"Shit…" she muttered as she heard a crack. Then she felt a wave of pain throb in her head. Kai pulled her up and continued running.
Kai heard a loud shout of "YES!" from 4 male voices.
Nami winced as Kai roughly pulled her causing many cuts to break open. She felt blood sliding down her arms and legs. Although she was too confused to say anything.
The building was now defiantly on the verge of collapsing. Kai pulled Nami to the closest exit.
The door was bolted shut.
"Shit!" Kai hissed before dragging her to another direction. Then the abbey walls started to fall. It was almost over. Windows shattered in to pieces and almost every hallway was covered in fallen debris.
Then the walls crumbled. Kai saw an open hallway. He grabbed Nami and ran as fast as he could as the walls collapsed around them. He shoved her out ignoring the fact that the door was laying in pieces next to the opening.
He himself ran out and tripped over a random piece of plaster and fell on to Nami who had stared still confused.
She was lying flat on her back while Kai was lying on the crook of her neck on top of her. Both of them were breathing heavily, too exhausted to care.
Suddenly before Nami could do anything Kai had moved his head and leaned down.
His lips pressed firmly against hers in a soft kiss.
She froze underneath him before wrapping her arms around his neck pulling him closer and letting her hands move up and tangle with his surprisingly soft blue hair.
Kai slowly broke off leaving Nami in a daze, her mind swirling with passion and desire.
Kai stared at her while shifting his weight on to his arms which were resting on the ground on either side of her body.
"Kai?" Nami whispered with a weak smile before she fell in to another state of unconsciousness.
Kai was still in shock as he picked Nami up. He couldn't believe he had just done that.
He smiled as he kissed her forehead and cradled her petite form.
He didn't notice that he had left something behind…
tbc…
YES! They finally kissed! I'm so happy! I hope you enjoyed that chapter! (ducks pieces of garbage) Sorry I had to end it there!
