Silent Apologies (Part 10)

-----------Extract from end of last chapter---------------

"Daddy howls!" Rika told the White Tiger X team happily. Tala blushed as the whole team turned to look at him, eyebrows raised. He coughed nervously.

"Rika..." He groaned. Kia giggled.

"Awwww you all embarrassed?" Kia grinned as Tala pouted. She slammed her lips down onto his and kissed him senseless. They parted panting. Then there was another knock at the door.

All eyes turned back to the door as it slowly opened to reveal...

--------------End of extract---------------------------

Everyone's eyes widened. Tala immediately stood in front of Kia and their child. Kai stood in front of Tyson, Ian in front of Karla and so on.

"Boris what the fuck are you doing here!" Tala growled.

"I came... for my property..." His eyes landed on Kia who was stood whimpering behind the red head, gripping onto his shirt from behind.

"SHE IS NOT YOUR FUCKING PROPERTY!"

"SHE DAMN WELL IS!"

"ISN'T"

"IS"

"ISN'T"

"IS"

"ISN'T"

"IS"

"ISN'T"

"IS"

"ISN'T"

"IS"

"SHE ISN'T DAMN IT!" Kai suddenly shouted, causing Boris to glare at him instead.

"You are as well so I don't know what you're shouting about." Kai gaped at him.

"You have Got to be kidding me" He snickered. "You couldn't even own a box, I mean you're about as smart as a fly high on cannabis..." Boris growled then snapped his fingers. An army of men came into the room.

"Really?" Kai gulped. Needles loaded with tranquilliser came out of the guns that the men held, they hit everyone in the room, including the little girl (AN: Awwww how cruel)

Kia and Tala clutched at the needle before slowly drifting off to sleep. Kai whimpered as he pulled the needle out, but too much of the substance was already implanted in his system and he collapsed on the floor next to where Tyson was. They were after all made to be stronger than the rest. Boris wrote a note on a piece of paper before ordering the men to pick up, Tyson, Kia and Rika and to take them back to headquarters. Before leaving he looked down at Tala whose eyes were scrunched shut in pain. He kicked him, satisfied when he heard a crack then left with the rest of his team of men.

Three hours later the rest of the people in the room woke up. Tala sat up immediately before clutching at his side in pain. He broke down into a complete fit of sobs. "He took them... he took them from me"

"Ty..." Kai rasped. His throat was dry, he looked around the room, Tyson was no where to be found. "Why? Why didn't you take me instead?" A tear rolled down the usually stoic captains face before he noticed the paper on the table. He stood up and shakily made his way to it. His eyes widened at what it read.

'To Tala and Kai'

Yes I have your dear precious loved one's. To get them back, you will do a simple task for me. Meet me in the pub 'The Dancing Horses' at 95 Vine Street – still in Japan. At 10 o'clock tonight.

Come alone.

Boris.

Tala glared at the piece of paper.

Kai glared at the piece of paper.

Neither liking this situation one bit.

"What the hell do we do?" Tala snapped.

"Go and get your lovers and child back?" Bryan suggested sarcastically.

"But what happens if it's a trap?" Kai muttered. "What if they want to capture us too, they just didn't want to get us all in one go?"

"Kai you've lost it... they're most likely going to give me a choice about whether I save my daughter of my fiancée and you whether you take Tyson's place-"

"But I'd take Tyson's place!" Kai cried out. "I wish it had been me they took in the first place! Tyson can't handle those conditions! You know what they do Tala..." Kai broke down for a second time that day, he sobbed on Bryan's shoulder who was sat next to him.

"Tala has a point... that is most likely what he'd do..."

"And he'd know I'd say neither, and then eventually... he'd ask if I want to go in their place instead... getting him back his best two bladers..."

Kai nodded.

"So we stop him"

"Yes but how?"

"Well..."

Liah: Mwhahahahahaha I'm leaving it there at another Cliffy! Mwhahaha

Kai: It Was BORIS! makes a horrified look

Tala: But he took my Kia and Rika... sobs

Liah –rolls eyes- You really think I'd let that creep keep them?

Kai: Erm... no?

Liah –claps sarcastically- well done Kai! Have a golden star...

Kai: -Scowls- Well you could've for all we know...
