26: The Secret of Chase

Skies over Tai Ma fields…

"Can you see anything?" called Raimundo.

"No, nothing…" sighed Dojo as he sailed through the air, over Tai Ma fields.

"Clay? Omi? What about you guys?"

"Nothing my end, partner!" called Clay.

"Ryan is, how Clay would say, harder to find than a piece of hay in a stack full of needles!" said Omi.

"Whatever…" sighed Raimundo "Let's keep looking…"

"Hey!" called Clay "There he is!"

He pointed down into a field, there was Ryan walking through the long grass. Dojo swooped down towards him and landed near him, the others jumped off him.

"Ryan!" said Omi as he ran up to Ryan, "What are you doing?"

"What does it look like, Omi?" said Ryan, he didn't even stop, he just kept on walking. He was suddenly knocked down to the ground as Raimundo tackled him.

"Ryan, you bastard!" yelled Raimundo as Ryan rolled over and pushed him off, "Why did you leave her!"

"Didn't you read the letter?" said Ryan as he glared up at him. He quickly back flipped to avoid Raimundo's fist has he went to punch him.

"Why did you leave her!" growled Raimundo "You loved each other…Or did she only love you?"

Ryan growled back at him.

"How dare you!" growled Ryan, "I left to stop myself from killing you all!"

"Break it up, you two!" said Clay as he stepped between them, "We've got bigger problems!"

Ryan and Raimundo continued to growl at each other as Clay held them apart at arms length. They both eventually calmed down.

"Ryan, we know about the Shadow of Fear" said Omi "And we know about your…past"

"Me too…" sighed Ryan "I saw the scroll too…Does Kimiko know about it?"

"You're lucky Ryan…" growled Raimundo "She doesn't…"

Ryan sighed as he looked up into the sky.

"How is she?" said Ryan.

"We don't know" said Clay "She gone!"

"Gone!" gasped Ryan.

"We thought she went off after you" said Omi.

"No" said Ryan "If she came after me, you guys would have caught up with her before you found me"

"Good point…" said Clay "Then where could she be?"

Ryan began to panic.

"This isn't good…" said Ryan "I leave the temple, and then Kimiko disappears of the face of the planet"

"We need to get back to the temple!" said Omi as he jumped back onto Dojo, Clay and Raimundo got on as well.

"You coming?" said Clay as they looked over at Ryan.

"I don't know…" sighed Ryan, "It's too much of a risk…"

"Ryan!" said Omi "You can spend you life running from Chase…alone!"

Ryan looked up at him,

"Or you can join us, and together we can find Kimiko and stop Chase!"

Ryan looked at the others for a moment; his face suddenly became filled with determination.

"Let's do this!" said Ryan as he leaped on Dojo. As they took off, Raimundo lent towards Ryan's ear and whispered to him.

"Ryan, if anything bad has happened to her…I'll make sure that you regret it…"

"Don't worry Rai…" whispered Ryan as he glared at him, "Nothing you can do can hurt me more than if I lost Kimiko…"

At Chase's lair…

"Damn…" yawned Kimiko as she began to wake up, "I have got to stop getting myself knocked out…"

She sat up and stretched her arms and let them fall to the ground, her hand moved across the soft silky bed that she was sleeping on.

"Boy…That was the best night's sleep I have ever…"

She looked down at what she was sitting on; she was on a large soft bed.

"What the hell!" gasped Kimiko as she shot up. She realised that she was no longer wearing her blood stained monk robes, she was now wearing an elegant black gown, and her face and hair were also clean.

"I see you have awakened…" said a dark voice. She looked up, she was no longer in a cage, she was now in a large room, her bed was on one side of the room, and there was a table in the other.

"Come closer…" said the voice; it sounded like it came from the table. She got up from the bed and walked towards the table. She noticed that there was a figure sitting at the other end of the table,

"Who are you?" demanded Kimiko as she approached the table.

"Sit down…"

There was a sudden scraping noise as a chair moved out from the darkness and moved towards the table. She sat down on the chair and looked across the table, the figure looked up at her with evil eyes, she gasped as she realised who it was.

"Chase Young!" gasped Kimiko, she tried to get up from the chair, but her legs wouldn't budge, "Ahh! Let me go!"

"Please Kimiko" said Chase "It's rude to get down from the table before the food is served…"

He clicked his fingers, and several jungle cats came in with plates laden with food, she watched as they laid the plates in front of her.

"I'm not hungry" growled Kimiko.

"Come now, Kimiko…" said Chase, "After I cleaned you up…And gave you that nice gown…"

"I told you, I'm not hungry!" yelled Kimiko. Her stomach growled loudly after she said that.

"Suit yourself then…" said Chase as he began to eat his Low Mang Lone soup. Kimiko looked up at the food and saw that there was a large plate of Sushi; Chase must have known that Sushi was her favourite, her mouth began to water, she hadn't eaten since that meal she had last night. Chase looked up, as if he could read her mind.

"Go ahead…Dig in"

Kimiko, without even thinking, began to eat, she felt the taste of Sushi stimulate her tongue and slide down her throat. She looked at Chase, who was grinning at her with his evil smile.

"What are you up to?" said Kimiko.

"Gift wrapping you for Ryan…And keeping you alive…"

"What!" gasped Kimiko, almost choking on the piece of Sushi.

"How do you think Ryan would feel if he came here to find you were dying…or dead?"

She slammed her fists on the table.

"WHAT EVER YOU ARE DOING!" yelled Kimiko "IT WILL NOT WORK!"

"Please don't hit the table…" said Chase "You almost spilt my soup…"

"DON'T CHANGE THE BLOODY SUBJECT!" spat Kimiko "I KNOW JUST AS MUCH ABOUT HIM AS YOU DO, AND HE WILL NEVER JOIN YOU!"

Chase began to chuckle.

"WHAT IS SO FUNNY?"

"Oh contraire, my dear Kimiko…I know everything about Ryan…I knew who he was, even before his "amnesia"…"

Kimiko looked at him, her face full of shock.

"No…You're lying…You're lying!"

Chase got up, he signalled to one of the jungle cats and it grabbed Kimiko by the arm.

"If you don't appreciate my hospitality…" said Chase as the cat dragged her out of the room, "Maybe you should start praying that Ryan turns up soon…"

"Ryan will never join you!" yelled Kimiko as she was dragged out of the room.

"Either he joins us…" said Chase "Or you die!"

Chase left the room, ignoring Kimiko's screams as she was taken down to the dungeon. Wuya was standing in the doorway; she has witnessed the whole thing.

"He he he…" giggled Wuya "I enjoy seeing her suffer…"

Chase looked up at her and said "How would you like to see the others suffer?"

"What do I have to do?" said Wuya as a grin grew across her face.

"I want you to get in touch with one of your "old" friends, and tell him to go to the temple. I also want you to give him a "rumour" that I have Kimiko…"

"Oh" said Wuya "I see, and who is my "old" friend?"

"Jack Spicer"

Wuya pulled an annoyed face, "What! Him! Hmm…Yeah…He does have quite loose lips…Okay, I'll do it!"

Chase grinned to himself as Wuya walked away.

"Soon Ryan…Soon you will be all mine…And then I can get rid of that pathetic excuse of a girl…"
