Chapter 7
Kai's POV"And that's everything, there about," I said, as the VRC clicked on and the opening theme of CSI played softly on the TV.
"Wow…" Tyson was shocked. "Poor Shiri… If I'd known…"
"No one knew that much Tyson," Hilary placed a hand on his shoulder. "Not even me."
"But why did she hide that from us?" Kenny asked, hands resting lightly on his laptop.
"Remember what I told you about the BIA? They're the Biovolt's PRIVATE soldiers, trained to be ruthless. They can be worse than they were at lunch," I said, glancing at the TV in time to see the "victim" (a.k.a, Shiri) being cut open by Doc Robbins.
"Wow, she WAS right… She really IS in CSI," Max murmured. The others nodded. There was a soft knocking at the door and Tyson went to answer it.
"WHERE'S MY RAY!" Mariah shouted as she barged in through the door, knocking Tyson into the wall.
"Sorry, Tyson," Lee apologised, lifting Tyson to his feet. "Mariah told me that she had something she just HAD to tell Ray."
"That's fine…"
"Mariah, calm down…" Max said, but it was too late. Mariah had run off to the spare room where she saw Ray's shoes sitting next to and shouted out really loud.
"RAY!"
Shiri's POV"Owww, HEY!" I shouted as this intruder knocked me to the floor. She ignored me, rushing over to Ray and started shaking him, trying to wake him up.
"Ray, hey. RAY! WAKE UP, RAY!" She shouted. I grabbed her hands before she could injure Ray even more.
"Look here, you can't walk right in here and start shaking an injured guy like that…" I trailed off when I saw almost identical eyes as mine looking back at me.
"What do you want?" She snapped, showing canines.
"Wh-wh-who are you?" I asked.
"Me? I'm Mariah Riki. Now, who the heck are you?" Mariah snapped.
"Mariah, as in the daughter of Yuni Li?"
"Yeah, what of it?" Mariah's eyes glanced down to Ray's bandana, tied around my arm. Her eyes widened. "What are you doing with that? It isn't yours!" Without waiting for an answer, Mariah yanked it off me, pulling my arm HARD.
"Ouch, Hey! Ray gave that to me! Give it back!" I shouted, standing protectively in front of Ray's bed.
"Not until I get my answer: Who are you?" Mariah shouted.
"Me?" I smiled, almost menacingly. "I'm your sister."
"My sister? No way. Prove it."
"Fine, I will," I stood up. "Our mother was Yuni Li. Your father was Auron Zain. Three months after I was born, you were conceived. My father, Rousseau, found out that Yuni was cheating on him, so waited until after you were born, then killed her and Auron. I regret my fathers actions, but I'm not him!" Wiping my eyes, I stared at Mariah, standing tall, and declared, "Who am I? I am Shiri Mai Riki – Hiwatari, and I am your sister, wether you like it or not!"
