Author note: O.K, I'm really sorry but I'll have to stop this fic right here. This is the last chapter before I'm removing it. Lol, just kidding! I would never remove it with all the great reviews I'm getting. I totally love you guys!

Kais Devil- Thanks for the review, my first review as it is! I'll try to update regularly and soon though I might get a little busy sometimes.

Hutchy- Like I said, this fic is a little bit mystery and I'll give clues, but you probably won't find out whom it was who called her until the later chapters. Thank you for the review!

Random Reviewer- Thanks for the great review! I would probably get mad too, but it seems Kai is really patient. What a great guy, hey!?

Kawaii-Chibi-Kai- Very insistent review! I'll try to update twice a week. I don't know if I'll be able to do more, but I'll do my best, O.K?

Phoenix-Roar- KaiHil is my favorite pairing and I love angsty/romance fics too. I've read some of your fics and they're good! I can see that you're a really big fan of KaiHil, since all of your fics are about them. Thank you for the wonderful review!

DarkWolf88- Thank you, even though I don't think this story is that great! I like your stories, and I'm kinda lazy so I didn't review, sorry for that! But just so you know, I think they are great!

Thank you to all the people who reviewed! You're the best! Um...I would just like to say that I might slack a little in my writing skills, for the next few chapters but I'll try my best. It will probably pick up a little once I get through this writer's block of mine. I seem to only write good when I'm inspired...oh well, I'll try! Anyways, on with the next chapter, hope you like it!

Heaven's Call

Deep In Your Ruby Orbs...

Screaming and crying and grunting with exertion she pulled at his iron grip, digging her nails into the soft, pale flesh of his arm. Blood speckled her hand but still his grip held, with only a slight wrinkling of his eyes to show the pain he felt. Screams breaking into sobs, she stopped fighting and sank into his chest, all her hope giving way to emptiness.

"Please let me go Kai"

She must think I'm crazy, letting her go in a storm like this! I'm not that heartless...

Kai's thoughts slipped away from him as he looked at the wreck of a girl in front of him. She still wouldn't meet his eyes and was gently sobbing into the soft fabric of his sweater.

Something's wrong...

Pools of icy water reflected the gray sky above them as two teens made their way to shelter. One, lost in the darkest corner of her mind. Lost to the freezing rain, beating down in sheets upon her back. Lost, to the call of the thunder and glory of the lightning. Lost, to the warmth of the body pressed against hers. And oh, so lost, to the hope that keeps us alive.

The other was expectant. Expectant of the danger ahead, as he knew there would be. Expectant of the sorrow, the pain of life, waiting. For in the one minute you took your eyes off it, it would strike you down, and watch you cringe in misery at your mistake. He was always watchful, waiting for the pain that he knew would come, someday.

The dojo, barely visible through the rain, was deserted when they reached it through the downpour. They hobbled up the steps and into the entranceway. Water dripped off them, making small, glassy pools of water on the wooden floorboards. Kai gently set Hilary to lean on the dojo wall and she barely seemed to notice, lost in her thoughts as she was. He straightened up to rub the sore joint of his shoulder, where he had half dragged Hilary on the way to the dojo. Through his damp hair he glanced down at her. Tear streaks painted her icy pale face but no sound was uttered through her lips. She was slumped in exactly the same position as Kai had left her and her big ruby eyes, which had run out of tears, were focused on nothing. Kai slowly squatted down next to her and reached out his hand warily, as if approaching a wild animal. Hilary didn't move or even glance at him, to acknowledge he was there. Kai could almost read the dark thoughts playing around in her eyes. He voiced his question with a deep, soft whisper in the form of a name.

"Hilary?"

What's wrong...?

Nothing. Not even a blink of an eye or a quiet sob, lost to the night. Hilary just sat there. Her unfocused eyes, staring at nothing. Kai tried again, this time with more force to his voice.

"Hilary!?"

Answer me dammit!

Again she just sat there, lost to the world. Lost to him and his voice. Gently, he reached out his hand, aiming for her shoulder.

Darkness. That was all she felt. It was all she saw. It was all she heard. Darkness surrounded her, swirling around in a pool, which was slowly sucking up her dreams and hopes. Her future. Her life...

Disbelief and denial were slowly being replaced with emptiness. Everything was over. Everything she had strived for, hoped for. It was gone...forever.

It's gone... never gonna come back...

A hand pulled her out of her thoughts. A hand that was warm and familiar. A hand whose owner wished to help her. Find out what was wrong with her. But she did not wish that, and would do anything to get away from it.

No! I need help! Help me...

He knows I don't want help! How dare he try! He will never find out what's wrong! He will not!

Confusion boiled over the two thoughts swirling in her head, brewing a dark storm of anger. Rage filmed her vision red. All she cared about was getting away and she was willing to do anything to make that happen.

Kai flinched as the stony silence was replaced with a low growl from Hilary. He was thrown off his feet as she stood and glared at him with unfocused eyes. Her lips drew back in a silent snarl as she finally responded with a ferociously silent whisper.

"Stay away from me. I don't want your pity."

Kai stared at her, quickly trying to analyze the situation. She was not herself, the unfocused eyes proved that. The eyes staring back at him were not the beautiful ruby eyes he remembered. So full of life, of laughter. These were the eyes of a trapped lioness, trying to keep the hunter away from her cubs, and willing to do anything to save them.

Got to keep her calm... come on Hilary, I know you're in there somewhere...

He stood slowly, keeping his hands out in front of him. Lightning flashed, illuminating the wariness in her eyes.

"I'm not going to hurt you Hilary."

"Don't move!"

Her quick reply made him stop in his tracks. Kai looked up at her with surprise. Hilary's eyes bored into his, sparking with the excitement of a challenge. Full lips, drawn in a grim line, she dared him to move.

Should I risk it?

His competitive nature screamed at him to take the dive and move. But something held him back. There was something in her expression that hinted fear, and unimaginable hurt. She was so innocent, so pure; she didn't deserve to be hurt that badly. So badly that she didn't trust her friends. So badly that she didn't recognize his want to help her. It was his desire to help her kept him where he was.

This is the best way to help her right now...isn't it?

Ruby eyes met crimson ones as they stared at each other, each waiting for the other to move first. Seconds turned to minutes and still they met glare for glare. The soft sprinkling of the rain against the roof, echoed throughout the dojo and the blackness of night combined with the gray clouds of the storm made blindness inevitable. Flashes of lightning sparked in the sky behind Hilary, outlining her slender form with brilliant silver and painting Kai's face in a wash of light. Still no sound passed through either's lips and not one muscle was moved, as if they were statues of stone, forever caught in a duel of their eyes.

Suddenly, Kai's ears perked up, hearing murmurs of voices above the din of the rain. His eyes still locked on Hilary's he glanced over to see her reaction and was surprised to find none. The only change was her eyes seemed even more unfocused than before. His attention went back to the voices, which were getting closer by the second. Still too muffled by the rain, he couldn't tell who they were, or what they were talking about.

This is my chance...

The staring match of the century was broken by the door, which was flung wide open to reveal a very wet, navy colored head. Suddenly, each blast of thunder could be heard precisely and the voices could be understood clearly. Rain was hurled in by the sky and four extremely wet, and extremely confused boys stood looking in at the strange scene before them.

"What are you guys doing?"

Finally reacting to all the noise Hilary turned her head and broke her eyes contact. Kai saw the opportunity and took the dive, lunging at her.

Author note: Oooh, a cliffi. Oh well, you'll have to wait until I get my lazy butt in gear and write some more, but I'm kinda pooped right now because my English teacher is giving the class a whole bunch of writing assignment's. It just crazy! Anyways, send in your reviews and I'll try to update as soon as I can, but I guarantee it will take longer than it did this time. Sorry about that readers, but I'm doing my best. Until next time, R&R!
