Chap. 27 : Friday ( Part 1 )

The next few days, training was cancelled due to the weather. Kai wanted to train in the snow but the weather just got worse.

" Why not the stadium ?" asked Carol with interest.

" I realized something. The stadium doesn't help at all." Said Kai as the team cheered.

Soon, it was finally Friday in the morning. Kai was in his room, Ray, Max, Mariam, Mariah and Tyson were out shopping for groceries for breakfast, Carol was in Hilary's room with Hilary, Kenny was repairing the team's blades.

" SHIT ! I haven't finished them yet !" yelled Carol with frustration.

" What ?" asked Hilary, puzzled.

" The present !" yelled Carol.

" What present ?" asked Hilary, dumbfounded. She didn't even have a clue on what Carol was talking about.

" The present ! It was for kai !"

" Why will you give Kai a present ? It's not Christmas or Valentine's Day yet. Drop thanksgiving." Said Hilary.

" No. Kai helped me take the bags few days ago. This is the almighty Kai Hiwatari we're talking about ! Not some ordinary guy ! Kai, helping me take my bags ? Of course I had to but him something to thank him." Said Carol.

" Then do it NOW !" said Hilary as Carol got to work.

" Wow ! Nice container. Can I take it ?" asked Hilary.

" Whatever. Just don't break it. It's made out of glass." Warned Carol.

Soon, Carol finished the 100th bird as she tossed it into the container.

" Bullseye !" said Carol.

" So, got your card ?" asked Hilary as carol nodded and opened the door.

" I'm nervous." She finally said.

" Oh don't worry. Just knock on the door and tell him what you're supposed to say. I'll be here waiting for you."

" Okay. Can I see the script please ?" said Carol as Hilary fell and raised her leg in anime style.

" You don't need a script. Just tell him and run back here." Said Hilary.

" But I'm nervous !" protested Carol.

" You won't be nervous unless … You have some feelings for him." Smirked Hilary.

" S-s-so ?" stammered Carol. She was trying very hard to fight a blush.

" Ha ! Here's what you do. You knock on the door, tell him thank you for helping me and bla bla bla and run back here." Said Hilary.

" Okay. Here goes." Gulped Carol nervously as Hilary pushed her.

' Hope kai likes it." Thought Carol nervously.

As carol drew nearer to the door, she heard voices.

" Go away."

" Awww c'mon Kai. You didn't treat me like this when you were with me."

" Go away."

" You don't like me ?"

" Yeah. Now bug off."

" Kai you !"

" What's going on in there ?" thought Carol. She noticed the door wasn't locked. She opened the door only to reveal Lucy hugging kai. Carol's face fell. She was stunned. She felt anger and jealousy rushing up to her. But mostly, it was sadness that covered the whole thing. Her heart instantly broke. Carol was stunned. The two still didn't notice her until the container she was gripping slipped and fell.

CRASH ! Kai turned around and saw Carol standing there. Lucy smirked.

" I-I-I'm sorry to break your precious moment. Get on with it. I didn't see anything." Said Carol as she ran away.

" Out." Said Kai darkly.

" C'mon Kai." Pleaded Lucy. ( Yuck ! I had a hard time writing this. Lucy is so sheesh ! My hands felt horrible writing that ! Go to shit Lucy !)

" I said out." Warned Kai.

" No."

" OUT !" barked Kai as Lucy stomped off. ' Great. Why does this always happen to me.' Thought kai as he slammed the door and picked up the broken container on the floor. The paper birds were scrambled everywhere on the floor. Kai picked up a blue card.

' She even knows what colour I like.' Smiled Kai as he read it. ( Okay. Let's get this straight. I don't really know if Kai likes blue. I just guessed since his blade is blue. )

Thanks for helping me with the bags. ( Okay. The ' to kai ' bla bla bla was supposed to be at the right side )

To Kai,

With love,

From Carol

Kai felt horrible. His insides were turning round and round.

/ What are you waiting for master ? The sky to fall /

/ No./

/ THEN GO AFTER HER / yelled Dranzer as kai ran off, throwing the card behind him.

-

Carol was running down the deserted corridors. She soon stopped for some air.

' I'm so stupid. Stupid, stupid, STUPID !" thought Carol as she scolded herself mentally. Suddenly, a pair of arms dragged her to an empty room.

" Let me go !" she yelled as the hand let her go.

" We need to talk."

" We have nothing to talk. And I don't see Lucy anywhere. Wasn't she supposed to be with you ?" asked Carol sarcastically.

" We need to talk." Said Kai firmly.

" I don't see there's anything for us to talk." Said Carol, crossing her arms.

" Well I do." Said Kai.

" Well I don't. Have a nice day." She said, finishing the sentence with sarcasm as she turned to leave. But kai caught her hand on time.

" I'm not finished." He said.

" Fine. I'll stay. But make it snappy." Said Carol.

" Look, it's not what you think." Said Kai, trying to reason things out while Carol just snorted.

" I said I didn't see anything." She lied.

" Yes you did."

" No I didn't and I don't see that there's anything to talk about." Said Carol stubbornly.

" Whatever. Right. Now I want to talk about us-" but kai was cut off by Carol.

" There's no us." She said flatly. " There's only the great Kai himself and his teammate Carol." She continued.

" Just hear me out." Said Kai.

" Why should I ?" asked Carol.

" Because I said so." Said Kai firmly.

" La, la, la, la, la, la, la, I'm not listening." Said Carol as she began to sing a silly tune.

Kai sighed. ' How should I make her listen ?' he thought.

As soon as Carol saw Kai was quiet, she took this opportunity to run away. But Kai caught her on time as he pulled Carol in for a demanding kiss. Carol was shocked by this suddenness. As soon as she realized what she was doing, SLAP ! Carol slapped Kai with all her might.

" Back off." She said shakily.

" It's your fault that you won't shut up. How can I talk if you won't shut up !"

" That's why ! I DON'T WANT TO LISTEN ! I HAD ENOUGH ! YOU DON'T EVEN GIVE A DAMN SHIT OF WHAT I'M THINKING ! I'M TIRED OF JUST BEING AN ITEM TO USE WHEN YOU'RE ANGRY AND WHEN YOU NEED IT ! I HAD ENOUGH ! WHY SHOULD I LISTEN TO YOU ANYWAY ?" shouted Carol as she ran of, tears rolling hotly down her cheeks. Now that sentence of what Carol said hit hard on Kai's mind.

' Hn.'

-

( Meanwhile … )

Hilary was getting frantic about Carol.

' She's been gone for such a long time ! Wonder did Kai give her a hard time are they confessing about each other's feelings ? ARGH ! I'll just go find her and barge in the room. I don't care if they're making out now.' She thought as she stomped off searching for Carol.

-

( On Carol's side … )

Carol was running when she skidded towards a halt. She took out a picture of Kai and herself taking pictures on picture taking day.

' Guess this means we're nothing.' She thought as tears dropped on to the picture.

" Why am I crying. That's bad. I'm not even supposed to cry on the first place." She sniffed as she wiped her tears.

" That's right." Drawled a creepy voice from behind that sent shivers down Carol's spine.

Carol turned around only to find a purple haired man standing behind her. " What do you want ? Who are you anyway ?" she asked stiffly.

" Never mind about that. Anyway, come with me." Said the man standing in front of her.

" Why should I ? I have better things to do rather than follow a stranger. People might think I'm stalking !" said Carol, unwilling to trust that man.

" Yes. And I'll show you better things to do rather that fooling around." Grinned the man.

" No and never you freak." Said Carol.

" You have led me no choice young lady." Said the stranger, taking out a gun, then shooting a paralyzing bullet at Carol, causing her to black out.

" Boris sir, the equipment is ready and Master Voltaire is waiting for you." Said another man.

" Tell him that I'll be with him as soon as possible." Said Boris, carrying Carol on his back, without anyone noticing except for the other the other man, helping him. But little did they know that they dropped some things on the way.

-

' Where is Carol ?" thought Hilary as she searched for the secret corridors and others. She barged into the room but only to find no one.

' ARGH ! Where are you guys !' she thought.

After a few minutes of searching high and low, Hilary finally found Kai, alone. There was no Carol beside him.

" WHERE IS CAROL !" roared Hilary as Kai opened an eye.

" Wasn't she with you ?"

" Of course not dumbass !" she shouted.

" Where could she go then ?" asked Kai.

" How should I know ?" said Hilary worriedly as Kai walked away.

" Where are you going ?"

" Find Carol of course." Replied Kai.

' Oh yeah ! Tyson and the others could help !' thought Hilary as she took out her cellphone.

Soon, the seeking spree began. When it was noon, Carol was still nowhere to be found. Everyone was getting worried. As Kai was passing through the entrance hall, something caught his eye. Curiosity killed the cat. When he went to check it out, his face was sad. There laid a picture of a girl and boy. Kai smiled sadly. When he turned to the shining object, his face darkened.

" Boris." He said darkly.

/ Dranzer, where's Kenny /

/ Let me see. He's in the ceremony room with Dizzi./

/ K. And Dranzer/

/ Yes master /

/ Tell the others to meet me there./

/ On my way./

" Alright, we need a plan." Concluded Kai, pacing forwards and backwards.

" For what ?" asked Tyson blankly.

" Stupid. The abbey isn't somewhere you can barge in boldly. You'll need admittance to get in. So, we have to sneak in." said Kai, smacking Tyson's head.

" Sounds complicated." Said Kenny.

" Not to mention dangerous." Said Mariah as Ray nodded in agreement.

" But what plan ?" asked Hilary.

" That's the big cookie. We have to have a plan." Said Kai.

" Yum. Cookies." Said Max dreamily.

" Quit it Maxie. We have to get serious now." Said Mariam.

Suddenly, a plan struck Kai. " That's it ! Sneak in like how I sneaked out last time !" said Kai. " Kenny, see if Dizzi locate see where Biovolt is !" said Kai.

" Let's see. According to Dizzi, the abbey is located at 8 Km away from here." Said Kenny.

" Right ! Come here guys. We're gonna … "

... R n R. That's all I have to say.
