Chapter 23
Azura looked into the world that she had come to know.
The world that she has hidden from all her life, all her training she knew the world was against her, but why it was a mystery.
As she walked down the pathways of Russia, she felt an old familiar feeling she has exploring the old parts of the abbey.
She then came to the hospital; she looked up and wondered whether doing Boris's dirty work would ever redeem herself of her past?
Ignoring the thought she walked in.
Tala looked up into the white ceiling, oh how bored he was.
He was bored to an extent he felt as if he would rather have died then live.
The door opened he averted his gaze towards the man standing there, Connor.
Connor as Tala had come to know over the hours was helpful in his own way kind, he seemed to understand Tala's privacy and respected that.
Connor smiled and read the bored expression on Tala's face, he sat down after closing the door and said, "The doctors say the formula may work"
Tala smiled softly in the corner of his mouth, "Kai hasn't woken yet though".
Connor watched as the boy's expression changed from bored to glad to worry in a few seconds.
"Mr Dickinson's watching him like a hawk. I was wondering Tala, whether you wanted to see him"
Tala was suddenly paying full attention to this man who had knocked him over, watched him and now talked to him.
"I would like that very much".
Tala saw a white smile appear on Connor's face as he said, "I will go talk to Mr Dickinson then to get it ready, and I believe the Bladebreakers are in there at the moment".
"Hey Kai, wake up soon ok", Tyson was sad.
They all were, while Max was trying his hardest to be happy or even smile was now straining to be positive.
"Yeah wake up soon buddy, I can't stand this place anymore ok", came Max.
Rei watched from the sideline, his eyes watching the peaceful, cold face of his captain.
'Please Kai, we all need you here, don't leave us, not like before'
Azura was wondering down the corridors in a doctor jacket, her long hair pinned up, strands sticking to her flushed face, she hated this place.
She saw a boy, he was around five or six, he saw on a chair swinging his legs.
"Hello, young man you lost?"
The boy looked up and Azura knew at one it was Leon.
"No, are you a doctor, I never seem you here?"
"Yes I am, but this is my first day here, can you show be towards the back entrance?"
The boy, or Leon, nodded and took hold of her hand, Azura then felt a sudden stranger shiver run through her body.
"Kai, I'm scared"
A young boy turned to face her, he took hold of her small hand and said, "There's no need to be scared, I'm here now".
And they began to walk.
Leon led Azura down the corridors and through passages.
When the came to the door.
Azura said he could come with, explaining that she's probably lose her way coming back.
Nodding Leon came with; once the door was closed Azura grabbed him and threw him into the car waiting there.
"Kai! Help, someone!-please save me, HELP-!"
Azura watched the car leave; she untied her hair, took the doctor jacket off and replaced it with her black one.
She traced the hand Leon had taken hold off; she traced it carefully, feeling the same shiver.
Flashback
The room was cold and silent, a girl of seven stared into the calm face of Kai.
He had been sleeping, silently, lying next to her, they shared a blanket, and she stared at him, as the sunlight peered through the gaps of a window.
"-Stop staring Faye-"
She was a little shocked; he opened his eyes and grinned, she smiled and he said looking up at the cracks, "-One day, I'm going to see the sun, you know that Faye, I'm going to touch it-".
The girl frowned, "-You can't touch the sun Kai, and no one can, not even Voltaire or Boris-".
"-But I'm good, I'm better then them, I know I can, don't you?-"
The girl twitched and said, "-I'll go touch the sun with you then Kai, we both can-".
Kai smiled and there were footsteps.
End Flashback
Azura shook her head as she watched the sun set in the distance of buildings.
Flashback
"-Faye, are you ok?-"
The same girl a few years older opened her eyes and stared at a boy with red hair, he was smiling, and crystal blue eyes gleamed.
"-I-I'm fine, where's Kai?-"
The boy's happy face fell and said, "-I-I don't know-".
There was shouting and a young man appeared, he started hitting the girl and Tala.
Then a shout came from behind a Kai stood there furious.
Soon Kai was hitting the man, then another appeared, the girl felt so weak she closed her eyes and slept.
End Flashback
"We'll both touch the sun Kai".
Azura shook her head as she walked towards the open streets, 'No Kai, we can't touch the sun, even if we tried'.
Voltaire twitched.
His grandson, Leon was bursting with energy, "Grandpa, what happened, where Kai is?"
"Kai is gone Leon, he's gone far, far away, now all you have is me, come give grandpa a hug, I've missed you so much".
Leon stood a meter away from Voltaire, he stared at his hands, two men behind him, and Leon looked up at Voltaire and for once in his life saw a monster stare back.
"No, I want Kai, grandpa I want my brother!"
"Brother? You have no brother boy, now come here!"
It was a direct command, which Leon would usually obey, but something began to change inside of him, something familiar, and something distant.
"No", he mumbled.
"No? What is this now? I am asking you to come here boy, now COME"
Leon looked up, "no!"
Voltaire stared at Leon.
The small boy was son fire, his eyes blazing a blue fire, "Leon, be nice to your grandpa now, come here", Voltaire used a softer tone.
"No", Leon took a step back.
Only to bump into the men, "Leon, listen to me, come here!"
The men grabbed his arms only for him to thrust out of their grasp; he sped from his grandfather past the big men and up the stairs, down the corridors and into a room.
He shut the door panting; he heard a key turning, they ere locking him in!
"You will not be leaving this room boy, not until you learn your place"
Leon heard them leave.
He looked around, paintings and photo's piled in a corner a bed, a closet, and a book, Leon went to the photos and paintings, he blew the dust off one.
There stood Kai, Rika and their parents, happy and smiling, Leon traced their faces, "mama, papa, Rika…Kai"
Tala sat in silence.
He watched the face of his friend drift further and further away from him.
Then, they shot open.
"Kai, you're awake"
The eyes moved from one corner to the next, and then they rested on Tala.
"Where's Leon?"
"With Tyson, they went shopping for some clothes and beyblade parts"
Kai sat up and said, "Phone Tyson, I don't think Leon's with him".
Tala did as he was told and listened to Tyson talk, only to find Leon wasn't with him.
"He isn't with him, Kai, what's wrong?"
Kai was getting up, wobbling, he was putting his cargos on, and his shirt, he took hold of his jacket and scarf.
"I'm going to find Leon"
"Is that such a good idea, I mean think of you con-"
"Tala, shut up"
Kai looked around and walked out the door with a trembling Tala after him.
"Kai is this good idea; you have no idea where he is?"
Kai smirked at Tala and said, placing his hand on his friends shoulder, "when hasn't it been a bad idea, anyway, I need the fresh air".
And so Tala, watched as Kai left.
Azura watched and waited.
He had woken and he was leaving, she frowned at the sight of him, this was not the Kai she remembered.
This is was a weak teen in the middle of madness.
She turned her attention to his friend, Tala.
The teen who had loved her without her even knowing, she turned back to Kai and her gaze softened, if only they could see, what true madness was.
Dr Henry and Dr Richards smiled.
"We are sure Mr Dickinson, that this is the right formula that will save him".
Mr Dickinson nodded and he took the doctors to Kai's room.
They opened the room, Tala sat at the window, staring at the setting sun, and the bed was unmade.
"Where's Kai?"
Tala looked up at Mr Dickinson and shook, "Gone after Leon".
TBC…
