Chapter 15
"You mean to say there was another Kai?"
Kai didn't look at Tyson in the eye, he didn't look at anyone, and he kept his face to the side, ignoring their stares.
"But that's illegal and further more almost impossible; I mean there has been cloning of animals but humans? That's technically wrong", came Kenny's voice.
"So Rika is the first Kai's younger sister and that makes her your sister?"
Kai simply nodded and Tala looked at his friend for the first time since they got to the hospital and he said, "You believe this then?"
Kai didn't answer, "And they've made another one because our Kai has a disease like the first Kai and without a cure could kill him?" Max couldn't take his eyes off Kai.
"His name is unknown; all we know is that Voltaire also plans on cloning himself and raise the child as his own as his, as his son was such a disappointment", they waited for a remark, none came.
"So what does this disease do exactly", asked Rei, also not taking his eyes off his captain.
"It eats you from the inside, first your fat, then your organs, once it reaches your heart or lungs you are technically dead", answered Bryan.
"But there is a cure right?" asked Hilary
There was silence when the door opened and a nurse stepped in, "Um hi, um Mr Hiwatari needs his rest is that ok?"
Everyone nodded and the nurse smiled saying, "One of you can stay if they like", everyone looked around and Tala said he would.
Tala sat in a chair on the other side of the room, he watched Kai stare out of the window, and "You really think there's a cure?" he asked aloud.
Kai looked at him, his stare seemed to go beyond the teen that sat in front of him, and it went beyond his physical features and burned into his soul.
"You know Kai. I always thought you'd die when you're old and to weak to even move, never to a disease, not like this".
"Well all things can't go the way we want Tala"
Tala stared at him in surprise, the way he said it, it was if the barrier of emotion had been cracked.
"No I guess not. Even if your stubborn Kai, I know you'll make it", Kai looked away.
Tala stared at his face and looked at him in shock, "You don't think you'll make it do you?" he moved closer.
"Tala-"
"You don't think you'll live, how you can think that…"
"Tala-"
"I don't believe it; the great Kai thinks he'll-"
Kai looked frustrated and suddenly snapped, "Tala drop it and go, just leave".
Tala was taken aback by his snappishness of the way he said it and stood up, and walked to the door, opened it and walking out the door clicked and he left Kai.
Leon didn't like the look of the hospital; he didn't like the whiteness or the cleanliness of it, or the smell.
Luc held Leon by the hand as they walked to the cafeteria.
There were two tables pushed together and people eating there, some talking some thinking, Luc saw Monica and Scot instantly.
"Hi thought you wouldn't make it. Um Bladebreakers this is my brother Luc and Vince, my friend Eve Riley and Leon, guys this is Rei, Tyson, Kenny, Hilary, Max, Mr Dickinson, Tala and Bryan".
Leon sat down and started to eat what was placed in front of him, Tyson watched in awe at the amount he ate in one go.
Tala and Bryan couldn't take their eyes off him, "Is he?"
Scot gave him a look and Tala knew at once it was Kai's clone.
Everyone got talking and Leon felt out of place and stepped off his chair and walked towards the doors.
Going into the corridors, he wondered around and took the elevator upstairs, and wondered around again.
He came to corridor that there was a door partly opened, he crept up and in, there was a person in the bed, staring out of the window.
He leaned against the door and pushed it opened falling onto the floor, catching the persons attention, Leon looked up and stared at to crimson eyes…
Rika stood in the gardens, her mind was wondering her memories of her life, how the hard times made her stronger.
How her brother protected her when she needed it, how he was always there when she needed him, how he was her hero.
Flashback
The park was full of snow and Rika loved it, she felt a something hard hit her back and she turned around to see her brother.
He was smiling at her, and holding a snowball in his one gloved hand, his blue eyes sparkled in the light of the day.
Rika smirked and grabbed a chunk of snow and made a ball, aiming at him she threw, "Rika, I'll get you", he shouted and a snowball fight broke out.
"Rika! Kai, c'mon it's getting cold", came a soft voice, both children turned to see their mother standing waiting.
"Coming mama", cried Kai's soft voice and they began to race to her.
"Rika, there's snow in your hair", laughed Kai as he played with her red hair, Rika was also laughing, "And in yours", she remarked making them laugh even harder.
End Flashback
She sat on a bench and looked at the sky, 'Oh brother, what must I do to make him see that he can trust me'.
Sitting she daydreamed of all the good times she had with her brother…
Leon was stiff as he stared at those eyes, "um, sorry", he said and he got up, the person in the bed and a boy of sixteen, with slate hair and shark fins marks on his face.
Leon stood there silent and the boy and Leon said quietly, "I'm Leon, are you sick?" (AN: what a retarded question).
The boy grunted and Leon came closer saying, "My mama said that when you're sick that you must have medicine to make you better do you have medicine?"
The boy turned away and Leon said, coming even closer, "My mama's dead though, but I still listen to her, where's your family?"
The boy seemed shocked by the question and forwardness of it and said, "Their dead", the boy didn't even seem sad.
"Oh, even your papa?"
"Yes, everyone's…gone".
Leon came a chair and sat in it and looked at the teen, "What's your name?"
This time the teen looked straight at Leon and Leon felt as if his blood had gone cold, his skin shivered and he felt as if his heart had missed a beat, that stare was so penetrating!
"Kai", said the boy
Leon smiled and said, "Hello Kai. How old are you?"
"Sixteen"
"I'm five; I think I'll have to ask Miss Riley when I find her. When are you going home, I don't like hospitals do you?"
"I don't know kid".
Leon scrunched up his face and said, "My names not kid, its Leon. Lee-on", Kai smirked and said, "Okay Lee-on".
Leon pouted and said, "Miss Riley thinks that hospitals are safe and nice, I think she's out of her mind, do I keep on having to speak in English?"
Kai didn't seem concerned and answered back in Russian "-Speak in whatever language you like kid-"
Leon smiled and said, "-Grandfather said I must speak in English because it's the language of the world, I'm better at Russian, are you Russian?"
"-Yes-"
"-Wow, the only Russian I've seen is Grandfather and he doesn't even like to speak Russian-"
Kai smiled, "-I don't speak it very much either, I live in Japan-"
"-That's were Miss Riley wants to take me, she says it'll be safer then here. But I like it here, it's nice and it snows, I love snow, especially having a snowball fight-"
"-I haven't had a snowball fight in a long time. I like it here too I was born here-"
"-Then why do you live in what was it called?-"
"-Japan?-"
"-Japan that's it. Why don't you live there-?"
Kai shifted in his bed and said, "-My family died here in Russia, it is my home yes, but so is Japan, I have friends there and a life, I'll always end up coming back here though-"
"-It must be nice having friends-"
"-Oh and you don't have any-?"
Leon nodded and explained, "-Grandfather says that I must learn to be on my own, because I'm different, I'm not different am I-"
But before Kai could answer a nurse popped her head in and looked at them in shock, "Is he bothering you Mr Hiwatari, c'mon young man lets find your family", and Leon hopped off his chair and went with the nurse saying before he left, "Bye Kai".
Leon walked in silence to the elevator and asked the nurse, "What was his surname?"
She smiled at him and answered, "Hiwatari, Kai Hiwatari"
Leon didn't believe her and said, "But that's my surname"
"Well people can have the same surname now tell me your name and we'll find your parents"
"Their dead"
"Okay, what's your name then?"
"Leon, Leon Hiwatari"
The nurse took him to the front desk and Miss Riley, Luc and Vince all stood there just about to ask for help.
"Leon!"
Leon looked up to see Miss Riley who gave him a huge hug, "Don't you ever run off like that again, you had me worried sick".
Luc to the time in thanking the nurse and Leon looked up at them both and said, "I made a friend today".
"Oh what was their name?"
"Kai, he has the same surname as me and he's sick, he says his parents are dead like me, can I visit him again he looks really lonely?"
Miss Riley, Luc and Vince all went pale and she started to shake, "Sorry Leon, but we don't know what he might have and if you might catch it, maybe, maybe we'll see him, ok?"
Leon nodded sulkily and they headed off to the cafeteria once more.
Well that must be the best chapter I've done in a while.
