A/N Hello again! I have the strangest feeling that this chapter is gonna be really intense and longer than usual. So I guess I shouldn't waste you time and let you get on with it.

Chapter 4- Branded

Boris walked into the office and bowed, "Sir, your grandchildren have arrived."

Voltaire stood up, "Kai and Kalea?"

"Yes, they are both here," Boris said as a smile appeared on Voltaire face.

"Well done Boris," Voltaire laughed, "Bring them to me immediately."

Boris smiled, "It will be my pleasure, sir." He bowed to Voltaire again and walked out of the office.

Kai's Dream

Voltaire walked into the lab and looked at the shaking child on the examination table. As he walked up to the child he could hear small sobs coming from it, and his anger grew. Voltaire grabbed the child by his blue hair and pulled it so he could get a better look at his face.

It was flushed and tear-stained. Even though his eyes were closed his expression showed great pain. Voltaire smiled wickedly at the boy's pain and suffering, and then his eyes roamed to the boy cheeks where there were two blue triangles on each of them.

"Boris has outdone himself once again," Voltaire said to himself as he looked over the new tattoos his grandson had just received. A small whimper escaped the Kai's lips as Voltaire touched each cheek, and Voltaire laughed at his pain.

"Open your eyes, boy," Voltaire spat venomously. When Kai did not oblige to his request Voltaire pulled his hair more. Kai groaned in pain and slowly opened his eyes. There was so much fear and pain in them that Voltaire was disgusted.

"We'll just have to get rid of those weaknesses," Voltaire said as he let go of his hair and walked towards the door. "Your Biovolt's property forever now, and those marks on your face prove it," Voltaire said as he walked out of the room leaving Kai alone again.

Kai closed his eyes again and cried out everything; his parents, his sister, and his pain.

End Dream

Kai's eyes shot open only to be greeted by darkness. There was a dim light shining through what he thought were bars. He stood up and tried to walk, but his legs were chained to the wall. Then everything slowly started flowing back.

"Damn it," he said to himself as he remembered everything that happened.

"It's about time you woke up, Kai," Kalea chuckled from the cell next to him.

Kai stared at her in disbelief, "How did you get here?"

She sighed, "Same way you did, except mine was more painful." Kalea rubbed her neck, "I think they stuck a needle in my neck."

"I probably would care if you hadn't stolen my blade," Kai said bitterly.

Kalea laughed, "I forgot about that."

"How could you forget you stole Dranzer," Kai yelled.

"Oh right, I should be worried about your blade when I just got kidnapped," she shot back at him.

Kai rolled his eyes, "Just give it back."

Kalea smiled, "What makes you think I have it?"

"No, don't you dare tell me you sold it," he said quickly.

"Ok, I didn't sell it," she sighed, "but it's in good hands."

Kai glared at her, "I hope you know the only thing holding me back from killing you right now are these chains and those bars."

She smirked, "Oh, I'm shaking."

"Just tell me who has it," Kai gritted.

"It's safe and sound with Rei," Kalea smiled.

Kai gaped at her, "You mean to tell me that my blade has been with Rei the whole time!"

Kalea nodded, "Even if you asked him if he knew where your precious blade was he wouldn't have told you," she yawned, "if he did tell you he had it you would've probably killed him, trying to get it back."

Kai smiled, "You are such a bitch."

"Nice vocabulary, jackass," Kalea said sarcastically.

"Well, it's nice to see the twins are getting along so well," Boris smirked as he walked into the room.

"Oh, you haven't burned in hell yet," Kalea sighed, "what a pity."

Boris laughed, "Would you mind telling me why I should burn in hell?"

"Would you mind telling me why your face looks like an elephant's ass," Kalea asked innocently. " Oh never mind, I shouldn't insult an elephant like that." Kai laughed at Kalea's remark.

Boris snapped his fingers and the doors to the cages opened, "Your grandfather has insisted that you two come visit him immediately."

"If I see him I can't guarantee that I won't do him any harm," Kai said bitterly.

"Calm down Kai," Kalea stood up, "I think I want to hear what the bastard has to say."

Kai scoffed, "Well I hope you have fun."

"I'm afraid that you only have two choices, Kai," Boris smiled, "you either come willingly or we'll force you to come."

Kalea rolled her eyes, "Would you stop being so stubborn and come on?"

"Fine," Kai finally stood up, "just get these damn chains off me."

Back in the Office

Voltaire smiled at his grandchildren, "It's nice to see you again Kai, and it's great to finally meet you Kalea."

"Sorry but I can't say that I'm happy to meet you," Kalea sighed.

Voltaire laughed, "You know that's exactly what your mother said when she first met me."

"Did she also say 'I hope you burn in hell'," Kalea asked angrily.

"Kalea you should try to calm down," Kai glared at Voltaire, "he just gets pleasure seeing you angry."

Kalea crossed her arms, "Sick bastard."

"Why are we here Voltaire," Kai asked impatiently.

Voltaire smirked, "Well I just thought it would be proper if I welcomed my grandchildren to Biovolt myself."

"You must be brain damaged if you think I'm joining Biovolt," Kalea hissed.

"I thought you would say something like that," Voltaire smiled, "so I guess I'll just have to force you to join."

Kalea stood up, "I'd like to see you try, Kai and I would never join Biovolt."

Voltaire smiled again, "Kai is already Biovolt's property, and the marks on his face prove it."

Kai froze in his seat as Voltaire uttered the last part of that sentence. And the marks on his face prove it. Those words echoed in his head and soon that's all he could hear. He could see Kalea shaking him, speaking to him, but he couldn't hear anything but those words. And the marks on his face prove it.

Kalea turned back to her grandfather, "You're a liar, Kai is not Biovolt's property."

"Yes, he is," Voltaire laughed, "and soon you will be too."

Kalea shook her head and turned her attention back to her brother, "Kai, please say something." Kai looked behind her, and she saw so much fear in his eyes. She was about to turn around, but someone held her still while someone else put a needle in her arm and injected her again. Kalea kept struggling in the persons grip until she fell unconscious.

Kai watched as Bryan picked up his sister and carried her out of the room. Tala walked up to Kai, grabbed his arm, and took him out of the room.

"What should we do with them now, sir," Boris asked Voltaire.

"Take my granddaughter to the branding room and make my grandson watch," Voltaire replied with a smirk.

"Do you want her to have the same brand as Kai," Boris asked him.

Voltaire smiled, "Yes, but make hers red triangles." Boris nodded and walked out of the room.

Voltaire smiled again. He finally had Kai back in Biovolt, and Kalea was well on her way to join him.

With the Bladebreakers

"Hey Rei it's getting dark, where do you think they are," Max asked suddenly.

"I don't know, Maxie," Rei said as he looked out the window.

Tyson scoffed, "Knowing those two they're probably somewhere yelling at each other."

Rei sighed, "I hope your right Tyson."

Max patted Rei on the back, " I'm sure Ty's right Rei, don't worry they'll probably be here any minute."

"Yeah, I guess you're right," Rei sat down on the couch, "they're probably fine, and I should just relax." For some reason that wasn't assuring him at all.

Back at Biovolt

Kalea struggled against the restraints that bound her to the examination table while Boris prepared the needle.

"If you keep struggling you'll tire yourself out," Boris said as he walked up to her.

"Fuck you," she spat at him and kept struggling.

Boris smiled, "I wonder why your brother just abandoned you to let us bring you in here, he should've done something don't you think?"

Kalea froze and turned her head so he couldn't see her face. Then Boris touched the needle to her cheek and started to draw red triangles. Kalea closed her eyes and tried to stop the tears from coming, but they came along with her screams in pain as the blood ran down her cheek.

With Kai

Tala brought Kai in a room and sat him down in a chair facing a window. Kai looked up to see Kalea on a table struggling against its restraints. Then he saw Boris walk up to her and say, "If you keep struggling you'll tire yourself out." Then Kalea looked at him and said, "Fuck you." Kai smiled at her until Boris said, "I wonder why your brother just abandoned you to let us bring you in here, he should've done something don't you think?"

Kai felt guilt overcome him and he looked away from the scene until he heard his sister scream. He looked up again and realized that she was getting 'branded' just like he did years ago. Her screams erupted in the room, and Kai couldn't take it anymore. He got out of the chair and banged on the window, pleading for Boris to stop.

He didn't want his sister to feel that pain he wanted Boris to stop. Kai closed his eyes as the tears came rolling down his cheeks. He could feel her pain and he wanted it to stop, but it didn't, even after Boris finished and the screams stopped, it was still there.

Boris and his grandfather would pay for putting them through this pain, but first he had to rescue his sister, he had to get her out.

A/N Wow. That was awesome! Writing this story is so much fun. I enjoyed writing that chapter. Oh, and sorry for the long wait, I hope I made it up to you.

Will Ty, Max, and Rei ever find out where Kai and Kalea are? What will happen now that Kalea's been branded? How will Kai get Kalea out of Biovolt? And how will he make Boris and Voltaire pay? Keep reading to find out. Later everyone.

SNEAK PREVIEW

"Kalea we have to hurry before they catch us," Kai said as he pulled her down the hall.

Kalea pulled her arm away from Kai, "No, I'm abandoning you just like you did to me."

Kai looked at her in shock, "What?"

Kalea smiled, "Biovolt's my home now, and I won't leave." Then she turned and ran the other way, away from the exit and away from Kai. Back to Biovolt, back to her grandfather, back to power, and back to hell.
