Chapter 14: Age 13 II: Kai's return

"YOU WHAT?!" Kevin and Gary yelled at their leader.

"Yeah, I went to Russia last year and talked to Kai's grandfather," Lee explained.

"So that's what happened to you," Gary said, "we thought you died with Kai or something."

"Sorry for not telling your guys and stuff. He's supposed to be coming back during our winter's break this year."

"But I thought you hated the guy," Kevin thought.

"I do, but Mark and I was the reason that Kai kept on getting caught," Lee said lowering his head.

"You sent Kai to the abbey?!" Kevin yelled outraged.

"Twice. I never intended for him to get sent to an Abbey! When my dad was leaving for a business trip," Lee began, "my dad brought me along with him to Russia. When my dad left to go to his businesses stuff, I went over to the Abbey and tried to talk to Kai's grandfather. Everytime I went over there he'd refuse. I had to use one last option..."

~*~One Year Ago At Volitiare's~*~

Volitiare was sitting in his big fancy chair when the butler came in with the morning newspaper. Volitiare opened to it up and saw Boris dressed as a drag-queen on the front cover. "OH MY GOD!! BORIS IS A DRAG QUEEN!!! VANDOF!!" he yelled.

"Yes Master Hiwatari?" Vandof, the butler came in asking.

"Fax Boris and tell him he's fired and to get my grandson out of that Abbey, pronto!" Volitiare ordered.

"Yes sir," he said as he walked off to get the car started while faxing Boris.

"I knew I should have listened to that catlooking kid. If he comes over again, I'm gonna have to give him a message," Volitiare said rubbing his head when the doorbell rang. "That must be him," he got up out of his chair to open the door himself.

When he opened the door, it was indeed Lee. "Young man, I want to give you a message."

"Will I have to give this to my dad about bugging ya?" he asked shivering.

"No. I want you to give me one year for Kai to return to Japan. Tell all of his friends, but not till the winter he's gonna return. Deal" Volitiares explained holding out his hand.

"Deal," Lee said shaking it.

~*~End Flashback~*~

"He told you that Kai'll be coming back this winter?" Kevin said in confusement.

"Yea, I don't know what date or anything," Lee said.

"Bravo, bravo," a figure in the trees clapped, "you should try up for Drama at school with that acting, Lee," the figure teased and it jumped out of the landing on his feet.

"You're back?" Gary stared in shcoked as his apple dropped on the ground.

"Of course I came back," the figure, which revealed to be a much taller Kai, laughed. "What you think that happened to me? I died?" he joked.

"Uh... yeah sure whatever," the White Tigers said sweatdropping.

"Anyways, I would like to thank you Lee," Kai said holding out his arm, "if it wasn't for you, I'd still be stuck in that Abbey."

"No problem, but you should thank my dAAAAAADDDDDDD!!" Lee yelled as he got shocked by those buzzer thing on Kai's hand. Kai bursted out laughing and fell on the floor.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Kai said wiping tears from his eyes, "I couldn't help myself."

"It appears you still haven't lost your sense of humor, Kai," Lee said shaking his hand trying tp unnumb it.

"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean for it hurt THAT badly," Kai said holding his hand out again. "Not that much of enemies anymore?"

"Not that much of enemies anymore," Lee repeated shaking his hand.

"Great. I have to go surprise other people now, don't tell anyone that I'm here, especially Mariah," he said as he climbs into the trees and disappeared.

"How many people might end up getting a heartattck from his surprise?" Gary asked in confusement.

"Only Mark I bet," Kevin answered.

~*~Unfound Lake~*~

Rei was watching the lake and threw rocks and stuff at it. "It's been 4 years since Kai has left. I know he's not died and stuff, but HOW COME HE HASN'T CAME BACK?!" Rei yelled throwing a rock causing it to skip very very very very extremely far across the lake.

"Hmph.. being angry will get you no where," a scary voice roamed throughout the lake's area.

"Who's there? Only a few people know about this place," Rei said looking for where the sound came from.

"Well, I'm one of the few," he said and jumped out behind rei and dragged him into the water with a huge splash.

Rei was swimming to find the surface of the water to get some air. "WHOA! WHO DID THAT?!" he yelled demandedly.

"Dude, for not seeing ya in 4 years, you surely lost your sense of humor," a familiar voice said shaking the water out of his hair.

"Ka-Ka-Kai?!" the shock boy stared. He swan over to his and started poking his face. "YOU'RE NOT DEAD!!!"

"Dead? Ow... would ya.. OW... stop with tha... OUCH... poking of the face?" Kai said ask Rei continued poking his face to see if he's really alive.

"DUDE!! YOU'RE ALIVE!!" Rei yelled dunking Kai underwater.

Kai came back up and said, "Of course I'm alive, why would you think that I'm dead? And why are we in the pond in the middle of winter?"

"We had a funeral for ya 4 years ago saying that you're dead and it was in the newspaper and everything. And the pond thing, I have no clue because you threw us in and with all these thick trees and stuff, not that much wind coming through to the lake, we might not catch a cold and junk." Rei explained catching his breath getting out of the lake.

"That's impossible," Kai said drying himself off, "I was in Russia the whole time. I if died, I would have BURRIED me in Russia."

"You have a gravestone and everything," Rei said getting up, "I'll show ya."

~*~Grave Place Thing~*~

"So, you want me to show you da grave of Kai Hiwa what?" the guy that's suppose to watch over the grave yard place said scratching his head.

"Hiwatari," Kai said annoyed.

"Right. His grave is over there where you can see a lot of cats trying to dig him up... or something," the guy explained. Kai and Rei ran off to where they can hear a bunch of cats meowing. After they scared them all awy they stared at the tombstone.

"Hiwatari, Kai bron March 14, 1988, died October 9, 1997?" Kai read the tombstone in shock.

"It's either a lie or that you're not Kai," Rei said confused.

"We're digging it up," Kai simply said.

"YOU CAN'T DO THAT!" That guy ran up behind Rei and Kai shaking his head. "It's my duty for people like you to not dig up ANYONE'S grave no matta who they are!"

"I'll give you 5 dollars and a pack of Icebreakers gum," Kai said pulling the money and the gum out of his pocket.

"OK! Just don't tell my boss," he said taking the money, putting the gum in his mouth, and handing them two shovels. "Just don't get cursed."

"Let's get digging,"

~*~2 Hours Later~*~

Rei and Kai finally dug up the casket and dragged it out of the hole and started prying it open. When they opened it, the casket was filled with...

"OLD DEAD FISH?!" they yelled in a unsion.

"Well," that guy said, "that explains the cats for the past 4 years."

~*~That Evening~*~

Kai was walking home thinking of what can he said to his mom. For all he knew, she'd be hugging, kissing, squeezing, and crying for the next 3 days.

"Hey Mom, I'm home. No... Mom, what's for dinner? That's just stupid... You won't believe what kind of food that had in Russia... maybe..." Kai thought to himself as he walked up his drive way. He leaned against their tree and sighed. "What am I suppose to tell my mom?"

Suddenly, a long stick slam against Kai's neck causing him to lose oxygen. The guy gripping onto the stick was a redhead in white clothes. "State your business here."

"My name is Kai... I live here... and I'm losing oxygen...." Kai answered gasping. Tala stared at the boy and let the stick go.

"You're not Kai," he pointed, "All of those other weren't Kai either."

"Other people?"

~*~Flashback~*~

10yearold Tala: hears the doorbell and answers it.

Some ugly hobo: I'm Kai. I have come home

Tala: ::stares at him and slams the door in his face::

~*~End Flashback~*~

"Dude, I'm really Kai."

"OK then, I'm gonna give you a question. I question only 2 people know, Kai and my mom."

"OK then."

"When's my birthday?"

"DUH! November 25."

"Kai... is that really you?!" Tala said shocked and started poking him in his head.

"What's with your people and poking me?!" Kai complained

"Ta make sure you're not a ghost, DUH!" Tala answered who continued poking him.

"Stop it! I'm real, I'm alive, not a ghost!!"

"KAI!" Tala yelled giving him a hug lifting him off the ground. (A/N: OK. Tala's older than Kai by like... 4 months making Tala a bit taller than Kai. Kai grew really tall but Tala is still taller than him. That's it...)

"I'd like to touch land please," Kai said struggling to get out of Tala's evil grasp.

~*~10:00 P.M. Kai's POV~*~

After a bunch of crying, glomping, hugging, kissing, etc, I finally made it to my room and sat on my old bed. I laid on it for a few minutes till I saw her. Her pink hair has grown a lot longer than I remember. She's gotten taller, too. She was putting on her coat and she left her room. I ran outside to see if she was leaving through the front back, but I heard a door close in their backyard. I quickly put on my jacket and a flashlight and ran outside with Duke behind me.

~*~Normal POV~*~

Mariah has just went outside and decided to sit on her swing. 'I keep thinking of him again. I know that Tala may be right that he's not dead, but I just don't know,' she thought sadly. A figure was across at her neighbor's yard (Which is Kai but doesn't know... DON'T TELL HER!) and she stared at her. "Who's that? Is that you, Tala," she asked.

"Nah, call me a friend," the guy said coming across to sit down next to her. Since it was super dark, she couldn't barely make out who it really was. "Can I help you with your problems?"

"Sure, as long as you don't try to shoot me or anything," Mariah joked as she offered him a seat. Kai sat down next to her and looked at her sad face.

"So, what's been bothering ya?"

"Well, it's about this guy. He left about 5 years ago. 4 years ago, newspaper said that he was dead. But he has a brother that says that he knows that he's not dead. I want to belive him but if IS alive, then he would have came back now," she explained.

"Oooh. And what might this guy's name be?" Kai asked.

"His name is Kai. I wish he would come back, though," she sighed.

Kai flashed the flashlight he was carrying in his face and made one of the most goofiest face you can think of and went, "Boo."

Marih stared at the teen for a loong minute with her mouth hanging open. She started to touch his soft face. Her eyes started tearing up before she hugged him and burried her face in his shoulder. "YOU CAME BACK!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT! YOU CAME BACK!!!" Mariah cried some more. After she stopped crying, she balled up her fist and punched Kai in his shoulder blade.

"OW! What was that for?" Kai asked holding his shoulder.

"THAT was for keeping everyone disappointed for 5 years, Mr. Hiwatari."

"But... that hurt..." Kai complained.

"Hey, how about you come with us on the trip with us," Mariah said really fast, "Everyone's coming, it'll be great! We're going to a ski resort in Northern Japan. We're flying first class. We're spending all winter's break there, too. Will ya come? PULEASE?"

"Uh... sure... I guess I have to start packing and everything," Kai said sweatdropping and scratching the back of his head.

"Great! We're leaving at 8:00. Thanks, Kai. You won't regret coming!"
