Chapter 16

The guard saw the purple-haired boy tense as the cold barrel of the machine gun was placed on his temple, Kai blinked not knowing whether to get involved or not. If he, or anyone else, made a mistake then it could kill his brother.

"You should watch your mouth!" The guard growled, after a few seconds Aton just smiled smugly at the guard as if he were egging him on to do the dirty task. The guard did not take the gun away, a few glances were exchanged between the other goons.
The gun pulled away from Kai's older brother; but with the speed the guard pulled it away at was increased as the head-goon cracked the butt of the gun onto Aton's shoulder. The boy was used to pain, all of the Hiwatari's were, pain somewhat surrounded them where ever they went. Although the sudden shock to his system made the boy collapse and stay kneeling on the ground for some time.

"Aton!" Rei and Kai both were shocked when they heard Enya even defend one of her sons by slapping the man whom she was being held at gun point by.

"Leave him alone he's only a boy!" She screamed in the man's face, he must have had a short temper. He slapped her back - the force noticeably stronger than the petite woman's attempt. Kai moved forward to help them both up, even he was stopped from his actions.

"Don't even dare think about it kid." A smaller, but much rounder guard threatened, though Kai was considerably calm in the whole situation, he had no idea why. Then something dawned on him. He held his cold stare with the guard and said slowly as if picking his words carefully.

"I think I will. If you wanted to kill us… then you wouldn't have even thought about making us… get off this plane."

The guards looked annoyed as the male bluenette seemed more rebellious than that of the other two, he was much more silent about it of course. Since they did have to get everyone of these 'passengers' to their hideout in a matter of minutes they would have to ignore the boys comments for now, and move on.

"Move it now." The main goon instructed, now leading the last four people off the plane and into what looked like a military support base.

There had been a runway which was strange - why have a runway and a military base in the middle of the Sahara desert? Things being to jumble inside Kai's head he could feel yet another horrible, painful headache about to start - he quickly masked his pain. Showing weakness in a time like this would be a very bad idea.

Gates, large metal bars and sentry guards - everyone noticed that the gates surrounded all of the barracks type place… It was weird.

"What is this place?" Tyson gazed around looking at everything quickly and then trying to figure everything out, especially on why they were here. Were these the people that were trying to kill the Hiwatari family? And if so why?

"Shut up!" The guard poked the boy in the back with the tip of the gun as if it were only a harmless replica. Tyson groaned as a pain began from his back to his shoulders. He continued to walk quietly after that.

Stopping at a large lift, which had no sides, a large platform and if anyone fell off - tough luck - the sides had warning and hazardous lines and signs in different languages - translated as
"Don't Slip Or You're Dead." Which was ironic, since anyone could tell that by just looking at the contraption. The goons dismissed themselves now only three were accompany them. Thinking because the platform was a lift with no sides, the thought of going fast seemed insane. A few people yelped and even the guards looked preoccupied with keeping themselves on the ground.

Sighing as they all got off, they reached a dark, underground prison. No one spoke, one side had guns and around five thousand other people to take their places, the poor Hiwatari's were left with only half a dozen people on their side. It was dark, yet clean - even a few of the stuck-up families that Enya knew would find it as reasonable accommodation. At least these goons were not pigs.

They were thrown in as if they were garbage, but everything was thinking more of less why they hadn't been killed yet. Before anyone could take in the surroundings a voice which was familiar to everyone.

"Enya?"

The man blinked as did the woman, they hadn't seen or even spoken to each other in years - mostly because Enya was meant to be dead. The woman gulped, unsure of how to act in front of so many people. She was happy but also worried in case what she knew - was true.
"Adonis." She nodded and gave a brief smile, Kai glanced between his two parents both of them looked embarrassed and also…What was with the forced smile his mother was given Adonis?

"Why are you here? When…?" Adonis mumbled trying to fit everything together, while his wife, stood up and wiped some muck off her dress as best she could.
"May I speak with you for a moment." She looked up as her face turned, into the blank emotionless.

Must be a genetic thing then… Rei always had wondered why Kai was the way he was - maybe it was really

just in his blood?

The two adults wandered over to the furthest possible position, away from everyone else's ears. They occasionally gave strange looks, and glanced over to the group of children… Kai was sitting down, staring at his parents while trying to piece everything together by was getting nowhere.

"I think they might know more than they are letting on." Aton muttered, rubbing his shoulder that had recently been given more than it could handle. He was sure it would be weeks before it felt normal again.

"Of course they do." Kai hissed, glaring at his parents, he noticed a change in their body postures and also their faces. His mother looked distressed while… Adonis looked oddly comfortable. Maybe they were talking about whom loved whom…? Kai shook his head, no Hiwatari would talk about such nonsense.

"Kai?" Aton frowned, wanting his brother to at least acknowledge his existence, at least long enough to give a reasonable answer.

"All they see us as is children that still can't fight for ourselves, they won't tell us unless we find out with no help." Kai elaborated, he knew that the BladeBreakers were feeling rather awkward but who could blame them. He didn't care for them at that moment, they were of no concern.

"How are we meant to do that? We're stuck in here!" Aton slammed his fist on the wall, it hurt but not as much as his shoulder was hurting him. Kai pondered over that, and searched everything he had remembered since this, plan to the kill the Hiwatari's plan had been going on.

"I still have that journal." Kai shrugged, he knew it was a large clue but he was never given peace to read it and study it's contents - he hadn't read more than a quarter of the book. He still had no idea who the owner and writer of the journal was.

"You can't read it here though." Max muttered, not really knowing what he was saying - he was unaware that he had been heard by Kai himself.

"Why not?" Kai snapped, and regretted when he saw the hurt look on the younger teens face. His guilt washed away when a thought of Sota came into his head.
"The guards, if well…" Max started off, unsure on how to explain his rude interruption - it was none of his business…Kenny decided to come to Max's aid and help try to make some sense on what he had carelessly said.

"If the guards are working for the person who wrote that book they would have been ordered to take it off anyone that would have it, right? To stop anyone figuring it out." The group went quiet and Aton shrugged again, looking at his brother.

"He has a good point." At the end of the discussion, Enya and Adonis had just finished their and had made the short walk over to the children again. She sighed and looked at Kai would was currently looking up at her with a blank face.
"Kai, I need to speak to you…" She smiled, but it soon went blank when Adonis decided to intertwine.

"I'm sure you can speak here without being overheard by the guards." Adonis smiled, and Kai noticed another forced smile came from Enya. It was easily picked up that Enya did not like Adonis at that moment in time.

"Just in case… Who knows… Even the walls might have ears…" She rolled her eyes and walked over to the place she had just been with her husband. She looked around nervously and leaned in close to Kai - she did not want anyone to hear what she was saying.

"Where is Tundra and the book?" She looked serious, Kai answered in the same hushed manner picking up the hint that Enya did not want to be heard.
"Her-." Kai went to pull the book out of his pocket but was stopped when Enya slapped his hand away from his pocket, he gave her a surprised look - wondering what on earth was happening.

"- No, don't take them out don't show them to anyone ever again understand." She hissed, she was acting strange and Kai gave her a glare for her odd behaviour.

"Yes. Why?" Kai asked, though only received another statement instead of the answer to his question.
"Not anyone…Understand." She nodded her head, and waited for her son to reply.

"Yes." He sighed, he winced when he felt another chip having what it felt like a war inside his head.

What was that about…? Kai stayed still watching as Enya returned to the larger group, she sat next to Tyson. Which was certainly odd…

Damn chips…Kai winced again as he suddenly looked around, examining everyone in the room. Max, looking fairly down - no wonder. Tyson and Rei were chatting away, probably trying to work out who could be behind this horrible plot. His mother was avoiding his father eyes, not daring to look at him. She kept her attention on Aton. Kenny was sitting down, next to Selene and Lilita. Both were cuddled up into on another a sight that was not seen often.

Kai blinked…

"Where's Sota….?" He voice his thoughts immediately and then looked at Adonis, all conversation stopped. Adonis looked up and gave his son a small smile.

"Sota?" He asked, unsure of how to explain what had happened.
"Yes…My sister." He would never call Sota his daughter he was no father… He was nothing he was there. Aton was not Sota's sister no - he would be the only relative that she would know. She was his to protect…

Adonis's smile left and replaced with a very sad look, even his eyes showed pain. Looking at them made Kai not want to believe what could have happened.

"I don't know how to say this…" He mumbled, looking away from Kai. At that moment, Kai's anger got the best of him as he lashed out and punched his father on the cheek, glaring deadly daggers at him.

"Say it!" He shouted, not wanting to hear that she was no longer living… No longer breathing.

"Sota… I don't know where she is…" Adonis tried to smile again though the pain in his cheek had caused him to stop any facial jester.

The fact that Sota may have still have been alive was no help to Kai. The fact that Adonis had let him and Sota down was unbelievable and unforgivable.

"What! The reason you were meant to go with her was to stop anything happening to her!" He yelled, his friends were rooted to the spot - shocked on how intimidating and, ruthless could be. Black Dranzer was nothing compared to this. He looked as if could murder his father at that moment.

"…Kai, please calm down, I'm sure there was nothing that your father could have done." Enya stressed the a few words, trying to give out a secret hint to what Adonis's actions really were.

The anger swiftly went away when he looked at his mother; her face was showing that strange emotion again, she was stressing for him to shut up. He would for the moment, he had to think.

"I don't care…" Kai mumbled and sank down the wall and ended up ignoring and not even looking in the same direction as anyone.

"I'm sorry Kai, I tried to stay with her but…" Adonis was cut off, Kai hated people that just couldn't let things drop - he'd let his father slide for a brief while yet he had to keep dragging the conversation out.

"But…You're a Each word stung at Adonis's pride even Aton though it was too harsh.

"Kai, he tried his best…" Aton tried to reason but with Kai in the mood he was in he would not lay down and just be told to say sorry to someone like Adonis.

"How do you know that much - he always ran away… Even from lawyers…" Kai hissed the words, like poison , the attacked Adonis as he looked more distressed by the second. He didn't want to be in this situation but he did have to be here….

Kai frowned. Lawyers?

"Grandfather was right… You are pathetic, the old man must have had some sense after all." Kai rolled his eyes continuing his rant of his father that was in his mind, not a very good one.

"Kai, you can hate me if you wish…" Adonis tried to make amends to what he had done, but it was much harder than he had first thought…

"I will hate you, so you don't need to worry." He glared at his father - he had never detested someone so much in his entire life. Even Voltaire wasn't as bad…

"But, Sota may be alive." Adonis tried to sound cheerful at that news but all Kai did was made a hidden threat.

"She better be…" He closed his eyes and held his head in his hands hoping that his sister was alive, at least then he wouldn't have failed totally. He should have never trusted Adonis to take his place in the random son act of that stupid killer.

No one checked the time, so no one knew how long they had all went missing, some even wondered if they were even reported missing yet. After what felt like hours, Adonis began to speak again.

"I was told that all the current people involved just want money so I'm sure that they'll leave us alone if I give them enough." Adonis noticed a few heads turn to look and take attention to what he had said - he mentally sighed in relief.

"Boris is involved, and he doesn't just want money…" Kai watched as Adonis seemed to be unsure of what to say - he had fallen off his high chair…

"Can you prove that?" Adonis raised an eyebrow. "We don't want to convict an innocent man, now do we?"
Kai glared, had he forgotten from all the pain he had put him through - and Aton! Kai was getting more angrier by each sentence his father spoke. "Can you prove that he isn't?"
Adonis went to answer back with another question but changed tactics he was as stubborn as his son he would not back-down from any argument. Least of all his opinions.

"Kai… Please think reasonably." Adonis did not leave his son's glare, he felt another few peoples' warm glare on him. Must have been the women…

"Quite hard when theirs a couple of brain-fuck chips in my head…" Kai shrugged and went back to thinking, there must be a logical way to explain this all… There had to be…

Adonis looked confused, "What is he talking about?" Adonis looked at Enya, straight away as if she would clarify what was happening to his son.
"There are brain chips inside our son's head… Causing him to get emotional." Enya had the straight emotionless face on, using it to shield any anxiety she was feeling. She was a member of the Navia family, but after being married into the Hiwatari family at such a young age she couldn't help but adapt and adopt some of their…Anti-social ways.

"Oh…I didn't know that…" Adonis blinked as Enya closed her eyes and turned away from her husband.
"I'm sure."

Authors Note: Well now that the Hiwatari's and everyone are all in the one room… You'd think they would come together to work it out neh? Sota won't be making appearances for a while… -evil cackle- So, anyone want to take a wild guess whom the evil plotters are…? (Yup more than one - hint! Read through a few of the beginning chapters if you really want to try and solve this mystery! ) … Or you could guess maybe why they are doing this Heh Heh or are you all confuzzled? Review please!

Again sorry it took longer just with exams coming up and all studying is rather important… Since I have to actually sit for five hours before learning one thing… It takes a while . Life is hectic!
