Hey people. Well I was planning to not update untill the weekend but then I got a lot of reviews and so I'm in a good mood and updating it now. But I am disappointed in all those people who have me on alert and don't review. The only one reviewing is Raysgirlx so I'm dedicating this chapter to her for being a loyal reviewer. Now on with the fic and I hope you will R&R people!

Ray's POV:
I wake up in the middle of the night because of a scream. I get up and open my door to see if anything is happening and see Kai coming out of his room as well.
"What was that?" I ask.
"I think it came out of Aviva's room." Kai says.
I see his eyes widen as if realizing something terrible and he runs to Aviva's room. I immediately follow and we start banging on the door. We hear a muffled cry for help coming from the room. I throw myself against the door and it gives in after a few times. I don't think the lock will work anymore though. I stumble into the room and Kai runs past me. When I look up I see Kai running towards a man who is injecting something into Aviva's arm. When he sees Kai he looks startled. Behind the man I see Boris… Wait. Boris? What the hell does he want with Aviva? I stand up and run over to the man who is fighting with Kai. Since Kai is keeping that guy busy I run past him and hit the guy that is holding Aviva. He falls to the ground and drops Aviva but before I can get to her Boris hits me in the stomach and man… can he hit! I try to ignore the pain in my stomach and start fighting Boris but that other guy joins in and they punch me to the ground. I see Aviva trying to get up and fight the drug she was injected with but it's already too late. Kai, who obviously knocked out the other guy suddenly kicks Boris where the sun don't shine and now it's Boris time to fall to the ground. I get up even though everything in my body is screaming of pain and hit the guy who is looking stunned at Kai, not expecting him to knock out the other guy so quickly. After another 15 minutes of fighting, Boris finally retreats. I immediately walk over to Aviva to see if she's okay and see she's still awake.
"Aviva? Are you okay?" I ask as Kai comes over to us as well.
Aviva barely nods almost not able to fight the drug any longer.
"Don't fight it any more. You're safe." Kai whispers and Aviva closes her eyes.
I lie her down on her bed and walk back to Kai.
"What now? Boris might come back if we leave her alone again." I whisper.
"Someone will have to stay in her room." Kai whispers back. "I think you wouldn't mind sleeping in the same room as her." He adds teasingly.
I glare at him but he just smirks and leaves the room closing the door behind him. I take a spare blanket out of the closet and lie down on the couch looking at Aviva. My body suddenly decides to remind me of my own pain and I can feel every part of it screaming out for something to kill the pain with. I close my eyes and try to sleep but I don't succeed very well and wake up every now and then until finally at 4 o'clock I fall asleep completely.
I wake up the next morning at 9 o'clock and see that Aviva is sitting next to me smiling. I sit up.
"Good morning." She says. "Are you feeling okay?"
"Not as bad as I felt last night." I groan but I force a smile on my face.
"You look terrible." She says teasingly.
I look at my body and see bruises everywhere and a couple of scars.
"I guess I've looked better." I mutter.
"Well if you feel half as bed as you look you must be in a lot of pain. I don't think an aspirin will help a lot but it's better than nothing." She says walking to the bathroom and coming back with an aspirin and a glass of water.
"And how are you feeling." I ask as I take the aspirin and the water.
"I'm not the one who got beat up so I'm fine. I'm just a little bit dizzy because of that stupid drug." She mutters.
"Did Boris say anything before Kai and me came in?" I ask.
"I don't remember very well. I was still half asleep when he started rambling about stuff. I think he said something about the past so I'm guessing I was in the abbey at the same time as Kai. I don't know why he wants me exactly but I have a feeling he'll come back." Aviva mutters.
"I'm hoping not cause I don't think my body could handle fighting his goons again." I say smiling. "I guess you're on your own the next time."
"Gee thanks. Maybe Kai will want to protect me again." Aviva says mocking me back.
"I don't think he's in that much of a better shape than I am so don't count on it." I tease.
Someone knocks on the door and Aviva walks to the door to open it.
"Hey Kai. Come on in." She says.
Kai comes in and looks at me.
"Whoa Ray. You look even worse than I thought." He says a little worried.
"Yeah, well I feel even worse but don't worry. I'll get over it." I say reassuringly.
Kai shrugs and looks at Aviva.
"Are you okay?" He asks.
"Stop worrying about me. You two are the ones who got beat up remember? Start worrying about yourselves." Aviva mutters.
Kai shrugs again and sits on the couch next to me. Tyson suddenly walks in, of course without knocking, and looks at us strangely, especially at me since I'm only wearing boxers and have bruises all over my body.
"What happened?" He asks confused.
"Aviva almost got kidnapped and we got into a fight with the kidnappers." Kai says simply.
"Really? Is everybody okay? Why didn't you wake me up?" Tyson asks.
"Because you wouldn't wake up even if your life depended on it." Kai mutters.
"YES I WOULD!" Tyson yells and Kai just smirks at him.
I see Max appear behind Tyson with a plate of food in his hand. Of course they already had breakfast.
"Uh… Ray? Why are you sitting on Aviva's couch with only your boxers on and covered in bruises? " He asks.
"Because Aviva almost got kidnapped, Kai and me saved her and somebody had to stay with her." I say annoyed.
Max stares at me stunned as Tyson waves a hand in front of his face.
"You okay, Maxie?" He asks.
"I think a better question would be if they're okay." Max says. "Are you?"
"Yeah. All those bruises are just hurting." I say with a pained face.
"How about you Kai?" Tyson asks.
"Just fine. I think Ray got beat up more than I did." Kai says.
"That's because you're a better fighter than I am." I mutter.
"Okay. Now that we're all here, Tyson, Max, start running 50 laps around the hotel grounds." Kai says.
"WHAT!" Tyson and Max yell. "What about them?"
"Ray has to rest and I'm letting Aviva take care of him." Kai says simply. "Now start running because you have to be done in an hour."
I see Tyson and Max glare at Kai but walk out of the room. Poor them. Kai's only letting Aviva stay because he knows I like her. I give Kai a thankful look and he smiles back, then walks out of the room to train for himself.
Aviva's POV:
"You wanna lie on the bed?" I ask Ray and he just shrugs.
Don't you hate guys that act like their though while in the mean time they're suffering like hell?
"Why do boys always have to act like nothing fazes them? It's annoying." I say a little irritated. "Now come on."
Ray stands up from the couch and walks to the bed.
"Sorry." He mutters lying down.
"Good. Now what can I get you?" I ask a lot nicer.
"Breakfast?" He says smiling.
"What do you want?" I ask.
"Eggs and Bacon." He answers.
I walk to the phone to call room service and order breakfast for Ray and myself.
"I could've don't that myself you know. I thought you were gonna get it yourself." He says smiling after I hangs up.
"And walk all the way to the dinning room just for your breakfast. That's just to far." I say teasingly.
"Oh yeah, those 20 meters would really get to you after Kai training." He mocks back.
I lie down on the bed laughing and we watch the TV until the room service brings our breakfast.
"So do you think Tyson and Max will finish their laps in time?" He asks.
"I don't think so. What do you think Kai will do them?" I answer.
"Let them train even more. That's the usual punishment." He says smirking.
We hear a knock on the door and I opens the door. Kenny comes in with Driger and Ice Clove. I look at my blade frowning.
"What did you do to it?" I ask.
Kenny looks at me surprised.
"You noticed something was different already?" He asks.
"Of course! I think I know my blade since I put it together myself." I say. "Now what did you change?"
Kenny starts to talk about all the things he did to our blades and I can see from the corner of my eye that Ray really doesn't understand most of the things he's saying. I just nod when Kenny is done and show him out.
"You understood what he was saying?" Ray asks.
"Most of it." I reply. "Although he didn't make sense at some times."
"That's how the entire explanation sounded to me." He says.
I hook up the Playstation again and we play until after 3 hours, Tyson, Max and Kai come in. Tyson and Max look exhausted from all the running.
"Finally done." Ray asks Tyson and Max smirking.
"Shut up Ray. You didn't have to run 100 laps around the hotel." Tyson mutters.
"You wouldn't have had to either if you would have completed the first 50 laps in an hour." Kai snaps.
Tyson just shrugs and he and Max go their own rooms to rest. Kai goes to his room as well after making sure Ray's okay and telling us both that we'll have to train again tomorrow. Great. I can't wait.
