Chapter Two:Petrified
Crash!"Kiko!Why did you do that!Arg,you stupid idiot!"Lily shouted,standing over a broken flower pot.A gray and white cat sat near the fallen dirt,big blue eyes staring up at the fuming girl.The maroon headed girl grumbled to herself."Great,I only have ten minutes to get to the movies and my dumb cat has to go do a stupid act!"
Kiko tilted her head to the side."Mrow?"
Lily gave the cat a sarcastic look."Oh,real funny.You just don't want me to go,huh?"
"Mrow!"
"Fine.Be that way."
Turning,Lily scooped up a broom and a small trash bag.Cleaning the mess,she looked over to her content feline.The cat seemed to be mocking her,eyes glimering."Oh,don't give me that look!"
Kiko simply bounded off into the livingroom,leaving Lily alone in the kitchen.Dumping the dirt and broken pottery,the red head dusted herself off.She rubbed her temples,frustrated."This day has a been a doosy so far.Now,what was I doing?" she sighed,glancing over to the microwave clock.Sweatdropping,she remembered."8:58!Shit,I totally forgot about the movies!"
Grabbing her house keys and jacket,Lily sprinted put the door,bearly cloing it behind her."I better not be late!" she weezed.
A couple blocks away...
"Kai,"Tala sighed,trudging along,"why are we following Lily."
The blue haired teen's eyes darted from left to right,slightly frowning."Voltaire's up to something.I saw one of his guards earlier."
The red head nodded,crossing his arms."He's smarter than that.He wouldn't just let one of his idiots running around.They'd be under cover.I think he's setting us up."
"He could be,"Kai replied,closing his eyes,"or he's planning something else."
The two teens walked silently for a few minutes,letting tension thicken.Dusk was long gone,stars starting to twinkle as the darkness fell.Street lights started to blink on,moths gathering around the yellow into view was a teen with long red hair,carrying a knit jacket."There's the target."Tala half joked.
Kai simply rolled his eyes."She's not suppose to know we're here,so the less you talk,the better."
"Wow.That was the most you've said in three days."
"Stop being a smartass."
Lily took out a cellphone out of her pocket upon hearing her annoying ringtone."Hello?"she asked into the speaker.
"Lily?Hi,its mom.I'll be home late tonight."came from the other side.
"Alright.I'll be out at the movies til eleven."
"Okay,just be home by then.And be careful."
The red head sighed."Yes,mom."she shut the flip phone,shoving it back in her pocket.
'Be careful my ass.What's gonna happen?I'll be with my friends,I'll be fine.'she thought,grumbling.Huge neon words came into view,spelling 'Cinema'.Smiling,Lily sighed happily."Hope Ash won't be mad if I'm late."
Cinema parking lot...
A lonely man sat on the curb,battered clothes covering his body.A plastic bag of food and clothes lay by his side,an empty beer bottle at his feet.To people passing by,he was just a homeless bum.What they didn't know was that he was eyeing a particular girl.Looking from side to side,the man took out a bottle of orange juice.Unscrewing the top,an atena sprung up.
"Agent C,are you there?I repeat,agent C,are you there?"a voice came out of the side.
"Yes'um.I'ma all set,sittin' on this here curb.The targ't is 'n range."the man slurred.He wasn't joking the drunk part.
"Is agent K ready?"
"Mhm.He's all sittin',ready t'go."
"Make sure to get her somewhere deserted.We want no one to see."
"Yes'um,Mr.Voltaire."
"Carry on with mission 12E."
"Yes'um.Over 'n out."
With that,the man screwed the bottle's top back on,taking a chug at his bottle of beer."Dis is the easiest jerbs I'va ever done.."he hiccuped,smirking to himself.
Back at the movies...
"Lily,"Ashlee half shouted,half laughed,"where have you been!"
The girl halted infront of the brunette."Sorry,"she breathed heavily,"when does the movie start?"
"Five minutes..."Kierra sighed.
"Well,then why are we waiting around!Let's hurry up,slow pokes!"Lily shouted,marching towards the entrance.Everyone sweatdropped but followed the girl.
Outside the movies...
Tala sighed,leaning back on the brick building."So we just wait here til something happens..."
Kai sat on a bike rack,one leg up on the top,his knee under his chin.He wrapped one of arms around his leg,staring at the group of girls as they entered the building."Something might not even happen,Tala..."
"So we're standing here for nothing."
The blue haired teen grunted."Voltaire is up to something,and we need to look out for anything he tries to pull...you know what he's capable of."
The red head nodded,crossing his arms."What does he want with Lily anyhow?"
A few seconds drifted by,the sounds of cars rushing past and people chatting in the background."She's the last living Campbell,and..."Kai let his words drift,staring out into the black sky.
"Since you didn't do the job,Voltaire will."Tala finished for him.
Kai gave no reply.He just looked at the eerie dusk sky...silver stars looking blank to him.'Why now?Why did she have to come know...?'he thought,closing his eyes.
An hour later,inside the movies...
Lily sat in her seat,eyes wide with fear.'Why did we have to go see a horror movie?Why not a comedy?Or a chick flick?I'm not normally this scared,but this is just so gory and sick!'Lily mentally screamed.Images of people dying flashed infront her eyes,she wondered ifthe others were enjoying this.She looked to both sides of her...seeing that the group of girls also looked sick and terrified.'This is going to be a loooong night...'she thought.
Ashlee stood up,not wanting to take anymore of this.She left the thearter quickly,heading for outside."I just need so fresh air,that's all..."she muttered to herself.
She opened the glass doors,feeling a cold breeze graze her cheeks.She sighed from the sudden refreshness and sat down on a nearby bench.Her brown and ice blue hair swayed in the light wind,leaning her ehad back."I was never a lover for gory movies..."she mumbled,closing her eyes.
"Yeah,I remember the last time we went to a horror flick,Ash..."a new voice laughed.Ashlee sat foreward,opening her eyes.
"Oh,hey Tyson...what are you doing here?"the girl asked.
The caped teen plopped down next to Ashlee,sighing."Me and Max went out to skate a little...he got bored and went home..."
"So you're all alone now?"Ashlee giggled.
Tyson shoved her lightly,smiling."Oh,shut up...what are you doing here?"
"Me and everyone took Lily to go see a movie..."
"Hm,so how is this Lily?She seems nice."
"Yeah,she's cool..."Ashlee replied,looking down at her feet.
Tyson stood back up,shoving his hands in his pockets."Well,I guess you should e getting back to your movie know,eh?I should be going anyhow-"
The girl grabbed Tyson's arm before he could leave."-wait,Ty.."
He turned to her,lifting an eyebrow."Hmmm?"
Her cheeks tinted red a little as she looked down at her feet."Maybe..we could...,"she looked back up to him,"you know,go to the movies...?Just the two of us..."
Tyson stared blankly at her before laughing."Sure,whatever you say,Ash!I mean,as friends and all..."he still have a slight chuckle,leaving."Talk to you later,Ash!"
The girl stood there,cheeks flushed."Why doesn't he understand?I want to be more than friends..."
Across the street...
Tala was still slumped against the brick wall,body limp,snoring.Kai was still in his position on the bike rack,trying to drone out the teen's loud snoring."Tala,wake up..."he growled.
No response."Tala,wake up!"
Snor..."Tala,wake the fuck-damn UP!"
The red head jumped slightly,snapping out of his nap."Huh-wuh-who?"he gasped,looking around.He looked at Kai,seeing glaring eyes."Um...I fell aspleep,huh?"
"Yes.If you're not going to help me then go home."Kai sighed.
"YES!Finally!"Tala replied happily,making Kai sweatdrop."WHOO,now I can sleep!"
And with that,the red head was gone.Kai shook his head,muttering things under his breath."Sometimes,I wonder..."
Back to the thearter...
Lily and the others girls came runing out,almost like they were too terrified to stay in the movies.Well,Kierra trotted slowly behind the gang.She sweatdropped as she saw her friends all huddle in a circle,facing her."That movie wasn't even scary...god,you guys can be so retarded sometimes..."she muttered.
"it...it..it was terrifying!"Mariah shrieked.
"And it was so gory!"Miriam groaned.
Lily nodded quickly."I thought i was gonna puke!"
Ashlee sweatdropped."Sounds like the ending wasn't that good..."
Everyone lightened up."No,it was really good!I mean,the hero was really hot..."Amber sighed.She had long silver hair going to her lower back,straight cut.Thick bangs went to her the tops of her eyes,almost covering her light blue eyes.She had on a white tank top with a silver stripe going down the middle.Black jeans were her bottoms and her choice of shoes were black and white checkered slip on Vans.
"Ug,I am so going home before I freak out!"Mariah shuddered,"she you guys later,bye!"
Miriam and Amber followed after the pink haired girl,not wanting to think about the freakishly scary flick.The three remainding girls stood hudled in a circle."So,I guess you guys are going home too?"Lily asked,sighing a little.
Kierra somewhat nodded,turning her head away."Not really going home,but leaving,"she smirked at the two girls,"we should go see another movie soon."
'NO!"the two girls replied quickly.
Kierra chuckled to herself before leaving.Ashlee got off the bench she was sitting on and glanced at Lily."Well,I hope you had fun...the gang can be really fun at times,you know."
Lily smiled lightly at the brunette."I'm so glad I have some new friends I can actually hang with!"
Ashlee slapped Lily's shoulder playfully,laughing."Well,good to hear that!Tomarrow's Saturday,I'll call you.Maybe we can all get together?"
"Sounds good.See ya later!"
"Bye!"Ashlee yelled inback of her,walking away.The red head now stood alone.
Lily glanced around,now realizing how alone she was.A few cars passed by,not many people around anymore.She remembered the movie she had just watched and tried to shake off the feeling of fear.'It was just a movie...nothing can happen to me...right?'she thought,trotting down the sidewalk.
She passed by a homeless person in the parkinglot near the thearter,giving the girl a drunk grin.Lily took her eyes off the man quickly,shoving her hands in pockets."Just a movie..."she muttered,her heart pumping faster.
Walking farther down the street,she stopped infront of a dark alleyway.She knew if she went down it she could make it to her house quicker.She had spotted it on her way down her,but thought against going down it.Glancing at her watch,she sighed.it was alreadt past eleven,and she had promised her mom to be home by then."Why am I so scared?It was just a movie...besides,I don't want to break my curfew...a shortcut wouldn't hurt..."she muttered.
Slowly,she entered the dark.It was a lonely street,nothing but trashcans and milkcrates thrown around.She slightly jumped when a rat scurried by her feet.She scruffed her feet along the dirty pavement,hearing the echoes follwoing her.Then she heard something else...a tap tap tap.She stopped.Looking behind her,Lily still saw the open street,the lights still on.No one was there.
She went back to walking,crossing her arms this time,hugging her body.Scuff...scuff...scuff...it still echoed through her head,the sounds of her shoes hitting the cold ground.She stopped again,a chill going up her spine.Tap tap tap.Then it stopped.She looked behind her again,eyes darting around.Still nothing.
"Just a movie...just a movie..."she whispered to herself,returning to her walk.
The red head quickened her pace,breathing more softly.Her mind raced with horrible thoughts...mostly about stories she had read in magazines or things she had watched in movies...how lonely girls late at night always get killed.'Stop thinking like that!'she mentally scolded herself.
Suddenly and unexpectily a piece of cloth was borught over her mouth,tied quickly.She screamed,trying to turn around.Instead Lily was pulled to the ground,an arm wrapped her waist so she couldn't move her upper half.The girl kicked widely,eyes pierced with fear.Then,the her mouth was free,the cloth was gone.
Before she could scream for helf,she was brought back up and pushed harshily to the wall.She fell limply to the cold ground,blood coming from the back of her neck.Her eyes were blinded from dizzy white spots as she tried to sit up.Groaing,Lily wanted to scream for helf but saw her attacker.A man in his mid thirties stood over her,a wide smirk across his face...he looked so disgusting to her.
"I suggest not screaming,"the man said darkly,"you could for a little bit longer if you don't."
He took out a something metallic from his back pocket.Lily's eyes widened with fear.'A gun!'she mentally shrieked.The man pointed it at the girl,cocking it."I'll let you ask one question before I kill you,sweetie."he mocked.
Lily's eyes were rimmed with tears,her head blarring from theslam against the wall."Why...why are you doing this."she muttered,not wanting to scream,She did want to live.
The man tilted his head to the right,a nasty,crooked smile worming on his face."Voltaire's little grandson decided not to finish the job...so I'm doing it for him."
He put his finger on the trigger,eyes flashing with a mocking look.Lily sat still,still not comprehending what was happening.She closed her eyes,not wanting to see the bullet coming at her.That's when she heard a crack and a loud scream.Something fell infront of her and she quickly opened her eyes again.
The man was now laying infront of her,his forehead bleeding from a blow...he groaned,trying to get up.Lily shuffled back quickly,eyes wide from shock.The silver gun had fallen from him,right next to the girl's hand.The man thrusted his arm towards the girl to grab her,but something shinny slammed hard down on his back.The man's face was pushed to the pavement,a loud,blood curdling scream following.
Lily slowly looked up,heart beating fast as ever.Piercing crimson eyes met her golden ones,a warmness coming over her.The teen stood over the now dead man,hands bloody and a jack knife in his grip.Lily wanted to cry,but it stung her eyes.It had happened so quickly...she didn't understand at all."K-Kai?"she squeeked out.
Kai looked down at the battered girl,eyes somewhat wide.He went limp for a brief second,the knife dropping...he stumbled foreward before dropping to his knees.There,he let his arms fall back,his fingers grazing the pavement.He stared foreward,a blank look on his face.Lily was sitting right next to the teen,tears of confusion crawling down her scratched cheeks.
"You...you saved me..."she bearly gasped.She lunged for the teen,wrapping her arms around his chest.And yet the boy still looked foreward,almost like Lily wasn't even there.He tensed suddenly,snapping out of his stare.He glanced down at the girl.
"Lily,you have to stood up,Lily's arms falling to her sides.
She weakly got up,eyes rimmed red."W-what?"
Kai looked straight into her eyes,a bit angered."I said go,Lily!"he growled.
The teen hesitated,glancing down at he dead corpse on the ground,then back to Kai's rough face.She nodded slowly before bolting off.She didn't know why...she just ran.She left her saviour behind,not even asking what had happened in the past five minutes.She jerked upwards suddenly when she head a loud bang pierce through the night.A few shouts lingered in the alley.
She let her fingers caress her cheek,feeling a sudden pain.A bruise was forming.But that was the least of her worries...she wanted so many answers...what was happening to her and what was happening to Kai.For all she knew he could be dead by now!She came to a halt,bending over,breathing heavily."I...need...to...help...him..."she weezed.
Her mind raced with thoughts...thoughts of what to do.Another bang made her jump."That's it...he saved my life amd now its my turn."she growled lowly.
She jogged back to where she came,now ducking behind trachcans and milkcrates.Now she could what was happening...she spoted Kai,now pinned to the ground by two large,burly men.he thrashed around,trying to break free.One injected him with a clear liquid,making him clam down a bit.Lily spotted 'BioV' on the men's suits,making her think."What the.."she lowly asked.
An aged man with long gray hair stepped closer,into the light.He was holding something in his hand...a gun."That's the gun he tried to kill me with..."she gasped.The man fowned down at Kai."Well,well,well...look's like you've slipped through my fingers again once again,grandson..."
Kai growled,eyes narrowing."Voltaire..."
The man simply chuckled."Oh,Kai,you thought I would just let you get away from me this time?How long has it been,Kai..three years since I gave you a favor?And you didn't even do it?You disgust me,Kai!"he spat,kicking the teen in the stomach.
The men let go of Kai so he could fall back to the hard pavement.He sat up,wincing,but the blow didn't take an effect on him."I don't husrt innocent people,grandfather."he sneered.
"And I don't let people like you get away like this.Men,take him to the van.Do whatever you want."he said,sneering.
The two men aproached the teen,not showing any mercy.Kai stood up,defending his ground.One grabbed him from behind,but Kai twisted his leg around,sending a hard blow to the man's balls.He doubled over in pain as Kai ran foreward,with the other man right on his trail.The teen sprinted past the still hiding girl,who saw the man sprinting after him.She stuck out her foot,which the man tripped over.He flew head first into a trashcan.
Voltaire growled."You fools!Don't let him get away!"he yelled,cocking the gun in his hand.
Lilystood up,now following Kai.Surprisingly,there were no other men following them...Voltaire must of been afucking idiotthinking only two men could over power the boy."Kai!"she yelled.
All she could see of him was his back,which was far away from her.She could see he ducked into an alley way,and when she got there,he was gone.Lily looked around,eyes shimmering with tears."Kai,what's going?"she yelled.
"Sshhh..."came a voice next to her hear.She jumped slightly,heart heart skipping a beat.Looking to her side quickly,she saw the teen holding onto a ladder,which went up the side of the building.
He looked at her,his eyes piercing.He nodded upwards,meaning for her to follow.Kai climbed up a little,so the girl could follow.Both of them climbed silently to the top,and with the help of Kai,they made it to the roof.Both teens sat on the edge of the brick building,out of breath.After a few minutes of silence,the girl looked at him.
"Kai,what's going on?"she asked,teary eyed.
He grunted,frustrated."I told you to run.Why didn't you!"he seemed angry.
She looked at her feet,frowning."I...I didn't know what was going on...and...I couldn't just leave you like that!"she squeeled,her eyes red.
He stood up,looking away."Don't speak a word to the others."
She smiled,nodding."Of course not...Kai,was that the man he was talking about?You know,the guy who grabbed me...he said something about Voltaire-"
"-this has nothing to do with you,Lily."he said darkly,looking straight at her.
"Nothing to do with me?Kai,he aimed a gun at me and said something about a grandson killing me!"
Kai's eyes seemed to flash a sudden emotion.Guilt?Whatever it was,it only flickered.But she caught it at the right moment."Kai...?I...I just want to know what's going on..."
"You don't need to."with that,he lept off the building.
She gasped."Kai!"she flew to feet,thowing her head over the side of the building.he was gone."I just want to know what's going on..."she muttered.
