Chapter 10: Yuki's Disappearance and Kai's Heartache

Kai's POV


I noticed Yuki fall behind in the group. I was about to follow her to find out what the matter was when I thought against it. I figured she just needed some time alone. Shrugging, I entered the room all the others were in. The finals were over now so I just had to wonder, what is going to happen now? I shook my head to try and get the thought out of my head. I didn't want to have to think about leaving my girlfriend so soon after I got her.

When I walked into the room, I rolled my eyes at the sight. Hillary and Tyson were having another stupid meaningless fight over why cucumbers and pickles taste different, Max and Lin were eating so much sugar it was a miracle they weren't on sugar rush yet…wait spoke too soon…A loud crash was heard as two teens knocked over Mrs. Hiwatari's extremely expensive porcelain vase. Anyways, Mika and Ray looked to be in a deep discussion, Kenny and Mel were typing on the laptops, Kimi and Daichi were fighting over the control, and Tala and Mariah were snogging each other in the corner.

I was just about to turn out of the room to find my girlfriend, when I heard Tyson make a remark he was going to regret making for the rest of his life.

"It's hard to believe that old Mr. Sourpuss can really have a heart under his so called 'tough' exterior…" Tyson started to laugh at his own remark, and the others looked at him worried. I gave him my best death glare, and he instantly fell silent. I lifted one finger, and he ran. I started to chase after him…like a lion ready to pounce on his prey.


Mika's POV

I turned away from my conversation with Ray to see what all the fuss was about. I should have known…Kai was out to beat up poor little Tyson again.

I looked around the room, only to notice that something was missing. Not being too able to figure it out, I decided it was just my mind playing tricks on me. Shrugging, I turned back to watch Kai beating up on Tyson after the stupid remark he had just made. Then it hit me. Yuki. Boss. She was gone.

My eyes went wide as I frantically scanned the room again, hoping that she was just hidden somewhere and I missed her the fist time. After a few scans, I realized that I had been right. Yuki was gone. I quickly turned to Ray.

"Ray," I started, in barely over a whisper. He turned to look at me, showing me that I had his full attention. I took a deep breath and continued. "It's Yuki…she's gone…" Ray's head shot up that instant and he quickly looked around the room using his feline senses for any signs of Yuki. When he had no luck, he decided it was time to tell the others.

"Guys…" Everyone turned to Ray. "Where's Yuki?"

The others looked around the room. After a few minutes they all looked back at Ray and me. Kai had dropped Tyson and was standing there frozen to the spot, clearly worried about his beloved girlfriend.

"Let's split up. We might be able to find her better." We all split up into pairs. After much debate, we headed out around the house in a search for Yuki.


Normal POV

Kai was walking around on his own trying to think of where he might find Yuki. After about ten minutes of walking, he stopped and sat down against the wall. Just then, he got an idea. He started walking to the main entrance. Sure enough, right there, sitting on the table, was a note. Kai carefully picked it up and read it. His body visually tensed up and for the first time in over 11 years, silent tears fell down his face.

The others met back up in the living room, only to have no luck. When they finally realized that Kai wasn't back yet, they went looking for him. They headed towards the main entrance and saw Kai standing there with his back to them. He was so rigid, it made the others worried. Mika was the one to finally speak.

"Kai…" He slowly turned to face his friends and they gasped when they saw his tear-stained face. He slowly made his way to Mika and gave her the note. She motioned for Mariah to come over. They read the note silently and the color drained from their faces. They were as white as freshly fallen snow. The others looked at each other confused. Their questions were no where near answered when the two girls ran up to Kai and threw their arms around him, while trying to say comforting words to make him feel better. The effect wasn't that great seeing that they were crying themselves.

Curiously, Tala picked up the fallen letter and read it aloud. Shocked expressions filled the room as it was read.

My Dear Friends:

You must understand that I really do love you all, and I would never purposely leave you. I care about you, and I wanted you to be safe. That is why I left. It is a very complicated story, so I will not waste our time by telling it to you. All I ask is that you forgive me for doing this and that you move on in life. Forget about me, but always keep me buried somewhere deep in your hearts. I wish I could have said a proper farewell, but it would have been to heart breaking. Kai, I love you. Please never forget that, but move on. There's no hope for us to be together anymore. I'm very sorry.

Yuki

The gang looked around at each other and then looked at the broken down Kai. Yuki was the only person he ever loved…the only person he could ever open up to, and she was gone. Just like that. It was hard for them, but they couldn't even begin to imagine how incredibly hard it was for their friend.

Ray and Tala helped lift Kai onto his feet and they brought him to his room.

"Dude, don't worry. We'll get her back. I promise. First thing tomorrow morning, we'll figure out where she is and we'll think of someway to get her back." Tala's words helped soothe Kai to some extent and he nodded his head.

"And that goes double for me." Ray helped Kai sit on his bed. Kai looked up at his friends. As much as he ignored them and as much as he never admitted it to himself or anyone else, Ray and Tala were his best friends. There were always there for him, and he really appreciated it. He sighed and nodded his head. Ray and Tala looked at each other with pure concern written on their face, and they walked out of the room. Tomorrow was going to be one hell of a day.


Somewhere—Still Normal POV

"I'm glad you came…"

"Let's just get this over with. You promised you wouldn't hurt my friends if I came, so here I am."

"Very good…come now…" Yuki reluctantly followed the man she hated more than anything else into the cold and barren wasteland where the plane was waiting to bring them to the one place she hated more than anywhere else…Biovolt…


AG329: Well, there you go! I'm sorry it's so short...I hope you liked it, and I'm really really really sorry for the long wait. The next chapter will be Chapter 11: She's Going to Get Herself Killed!
