Disclaimer: That's right! I own it all! (men in sunglasses whisper into FP's ear). Erm, it seems that I DON'T own Beyblade. I'm not crying! I just have… something in my eye!
I'd like to shout out to:
SailorofTears: Wow! Thanks! I have actually read your work I think. Your name is familiar. I'm quite sure I have. Have you got any ongoing KaiMariah or RayMariah stories going on now? The gay stories are really getting me depressed… why make an excellent character gay? I have nothing against gay people but… I DON'T WANT KAI OR RAY TO BE GAY! I LOVE THEM! I think I have read some of Lil Bre's stories. I think. I'll go check.
Humaninspirations: I'm looking forward to your Kai/Mariah story! You love this? Wow. Thanks. A lot. Here! Have a virtual cookie! Thanks for your time for reviewing! You've made me so happy. I saw your website and the quizzes were fun! I'm an Earth Goddess, a villain and I'm Kai! Your pictures is so cute! I love the little baby!
A.J. Osirius: Yay! I updated!
n: Is this 'm'? Just wondering… LANGUAGE! WOOT WOOT!
Yo! Rejiita? What happened, my friend? Why didn't you update!
Now I'm sad…
Thanks! -
Last time: Mariah declined Boris' offer. Kai listened to Tyson's plan and they all agreed to go through with it. My OC got into an argument with Tala, which ended up in a fight. And Kai prepared for the plan.
-
Chapter ten: Plan in ActionMariah heard the door open and looked up. Boris and Tala walked in. The two people she hated MOST in the world.
It was weird though, Tala had came in a few hours before and his face was quite clear. Now it had cuts and bruises all over it. They looked recent. His knuckles were also bruised. Who had he gotten in a fight with?
"We're going on a little trip, Mariah. To see your boyfriends."
Mariah's eyes widened. Did that mean she was going to get away from this horrible place! But… if it did it meant that Kai was coming here…
"Oh don't worry, Mariah. I have no intention of trading you."
If it was possible, Mariah's eyes widened even more. "No! You said you would!"
"But you must remember, little girl. I'm a 'bad guy'. I don't keep promises or deals. I lie. But don't worry, I have a feeling that Kai and his little Blade Breakers have come up with some sort of plan to save you."
Oh no. Ray, Kai, Tyson… they're all going to be captured!
"Don't hurt Kai!"
Realising her outburst, Mariah cursed mentally.
"Or Ray! Or any of the others!"
She hoped that Boris did not notice her little slip up. He chuckled.
"If they obey, they shall not be hurt. But another escape attempt, young Mariah, and either you or one of them shall pay the price. Do you understand?"
Mariah nodded. Oh great, now Boris was going to keep her and Kai there and if she tried to escape he would hurt Kai or Ray. Maybe even some of the others.
"Pleasant dreams." Boris said as he injected something into her arm.
Mariah felt the drowsiness quickly beginning to overtake her.
Don't want them to get hurt… Kai…
Kai…
Kai shook his head. What the hell was that? It was like Mariah had whispered it into his ear. Another dream? But he wasn't sleeping. Maybe it was a daydream.
Or maybe all this stress was getting to him and he was truly insane.
He started to pace, waiting for Boris or whomever he had sent to appear. He didn't dare look to the other's positions. They could be watching him.
A black van similar to the one he had seen in his dream backed into the alley. The doors opened and Boris, Tala, Bryan and Spencer stepped out.
"Black Dranzer?" Boris asked. Bryan held his hand out expectantly.
Kai took out Black Dranzer and showed it to them, but did not put it in Bryan's hand.
"Where's Mariah?" he questioned.
Boris smirked and pulled out Mariah by her hair. Her mouth had duck tape on it and she was blindfolded. There were large purple bruises on her face and a few small cuts.
Her hands were handcuffed behind her back and her feet were chained together. Boris took off her blindfold, exposing wide, amber eyes, looking around confusedly then widening even more when she spotted Kai.
Mariah shook her head and tried to say something but the gag muffled her words.
Kai clenched his fists. Mariah… how could they do that to her? She was just a sixteen-year-old girl! She didn't do anything to hurt them! It was his fault.
He nearly burst out laughing. And how many times had he thought of that? It didn't help. He had to get the plan in motion.
Mariah tried to scream at Kai what she wanted to say but the gag just muffled them.
Kai! It's a trap! KAI!
Quiet muffles escaped.
"Be quiet, Mariah. I know you're happy to see him." Boris said with a smirk. Mariah glared at him. "Come on Kai, I have shown you that Mariah is well. Now give me Black Galux and come into the van."
"How do I know you won't take Mariah as well?"
Boris pushed Mariah onto the floor. Because her hands were tied behind her back and her legs were chained together, she landed not so gracefully flat on her face.
Mariah moaned as she felt the stinging sensation on her cheek and once again she had bitten her tongue but was unable to spit the blood out. A few tears made a successful escape from her golden eyes and slid down her cheeks, the saltiness making her cheeks sting more. But even more painful was the pain emotionally.
Kai was going to be caught and she was going to be taken back. And, if they had done a plan, the rest would have been hurt.
Her worst fears were confirmed when she heard one little word.
"NOW!"
The sounds of beyblades were audible but Tala and the others had been prepared. She could hear shouting. Then suddenly she felt like she was lifted up and the gag was taken off.
Was it Kai? Had they been successful?
"Kai?" she asked as she opened her eyes.
But no suck luck. Golden eyes met lavender, not mahogany and they were set in a pale face with red hair.
Mariah moaned in defeat. She'd never escape. She'd always be a prisoner.
Always.
Kai pushed off Tyson as he saw the black van drive away.
"NO!" he shouted.
"Don't worry Kai, Kenny had a back up plan, remember?" Tyson said.
"I was able to shoot a tracking device on Mariah. We'll be able to find her now." Kenny said as he adjusted his glasses.
Kai hung his head in defeat then looked towards the sky, running a hand through his hair. He only hoped that Mariah was not punished.
He couldn't wait for this all to be finished. He just wanted Mariah safe again. For her to no longer to be hurt.
"Come on Kai, we have to get back to your place. Then I can set Dizzi up to find those co-ordinates."
Kai turned and walked away.
Ray put the phone down.
"I've phoned Lee. He's getting on the first plane here with Gary and Kevin."
"Did you tell him about Mariah's… er… current position?" Max asked.
"Yeah." Ray sighed. "He was shocked, then got really angry. He blamed it on me, then on Mariah, then on himself. He's got a lot of rage. But when I explained to him that anger wasn't going to solve anything, he calmed down."
"A bit like you, eh?"
Ray grinned sheepishly.
He only had to wait a few more hours. Then he could save Mariah. They would hug and kiss and spend the rest of their lives together. They'd get married and she'd give birth to his children.
Perfect. That's what his life with Mariah would be.
Perfect.
Ok, seems Ray is a little too optimistic. Sorry I didn't put in Lee's reaction. But, you know, he got pissed with Ray then Mariah then himself.
Ray must not suspect a thing. Like, say a certain Kai Hiwatari kissing Mariah. Wow, he must be really positive. My friend should meet him!
…If he was real… DOH!
Why can't Kai, Ray, Hiro, Brooklyn and Tala be real!
