The final part of this little 2 shot We've come pretty far.Staring Kai.
Be there for him
The press conference room was packed to the breaking point, reports of every media jostled for the best angle. There was chairs set up for them to sit on but no one was. There was a long covered table with chairs behind it. The standard press conference room.
The back drop behind the table, featured the BBA logo, and their current sponsor Advil - the official pain reliever for the top teams in the BBA. If they could shove it down the athletes throat.
"Where the heck is he" groaned Mr. Giles. Giles was 45, has head of the BBA's publiscist branch and coincidentally had high blood sugar and a bum ticker that was only getting worse.
"Oh I'm sure he'll be here any minute" Mr. Dickinson smiled cheerily.
"Lets just get the fuck on with this" Michael muttered I'm missing the damn game cause of that asshole.
"Michael" Judy soothed "kai needs to read his part of the speech and settle a few things with the reporters. It'll look so much better if he delivers it"
"Why can't high and mighty say that shit"Michael motioned to Robert.
"Because..." Judy trailed
"Because why" he shouted
"Please Michael keep your voice down, the reporters will hear!"
"So"
"Michael Kai needs to read the speech because The blade breakers are the best in the world ranking they just won the tournament, and with all the attention the media is giving them it just makes more sense to have Kai star in this little speech"
"You're saying he gets the part because the tabloids love him" Robert interjected.
"Yes"
"Personally I don't care if that bastard makes it here or not" Offered Lee from the corner.
Judy sighed Kai was only making things more difficult for himself pissing off the boys it was amazing they hadn't already gang beat the poor kid.
"Tell you what boys if he doesn't show in 10 min..." Judy was interrupted by a small bang . And the bastard himself walked in.
"You're fucking late!" Michael yelled at the teenager getting up and blocking his path.
"Ah Kai where were you?"
Kai opened his mouth to answer still glaring at Michael and every other occupant in the room.
"We need to start the conference follow me boys." Giles interrupted.
Keeping silent they followed Giles out putting on a fake smile for the cameras, everyone except for Kai.

A man stands on the edge of what was the BBA centre 20 or so years ago. The cold breeze tussles his two toned hair. Causing him to pull his scarf higher up on his neck, and adjust the cellphone he was holding to his ear.
"Yeah I'm in New York right now."he says into it.
"well I'm pretty high up right now"he laughs.
"Tell them I love them okay"he says smiling. His eyes start to glisten slightly.
"thanks"
"I have to go now bye"
"yeah you two" He chokes into the phone
He closed the phone with a click. Letting those damn tears finally fall.
The cold wind bites at his exposed face. Stripping of his gloves and coat The man stood at the edge of the building. The pain from the wind brought back more memories. Then he would care to admit. Memories from back then. Back then he had been a scared kid. he could've jumped , in fact he could jump right now. Just thinking of back then.It was tempting.
Why hadn't he jumped he had gone downstairs and was treated like shit, His team and their friends treated him like shit. But maybe he deserved it. He didn't deserve the trouble Janet his old mom gave him though, she had been a bitch. No he didn't deserve that. When she died he didn't even bury her, he let her bitch ass husband do that.
He could've jumped to escape her and take the easy way out of all life's problems.
He had been right the future had been a uphill battle it had been tough fighting for it. It could've turned out shitty, but he made sure It hadn't.
This future had been worth fighting for. He took a chance not jumping and he was loving it.
Kai turned around picking up his discarded coat and gloves . He needed to get to the funeral home now. He needed to approve the monument for his dad, not that this future didn't have its problems, but he could get through it.
After all if his life had taught him one thing it was that a son needed a strong male role model and he wanted to be one for his son.

(Look Kais still alive lol, I'll bet some of you thought I killed him, nope. not because I don't want to kill off my favourite character but because, I wanted to put a happy ending on a story that starts of pretty sad.
On a more personal note: I've been in the same situation, I wanted so badly to just get away from all my problems. AND I'M HAPPY I DIDN'T. Most suicides are just impulsive. I was going through a rough time and I stuck through it, now I have a stronger bond with the people I care about and my life is much better.
Looking back the first bit isn't necassary. Infact I think it takes away but what the heck I put it in to add some meat to it.maybe later I'll take it off.)
Anyway see that little purple button people you'd make my day if you pressed it and quickly wrote something.
