Tala woke up and groaned. His back hurt like hell since he slept in a chair in his own room. He was gonna sleep in the bed like he usually did, but Katana said that after what happened to Reivin, it would bring bad memories if she slept near a guy. So, he slept in the chair. A very hard chair. They told him not to tell Reivin anything of course.

"Good morning." He looked up to see Reivin looking at him from where she was on the bed.

"Morning." Tala said as he yawned. "How're you feeling?"

"I've been better." She said with a sigh.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"You're disgusted by what happened, aren't you?"

"What? What would make you think that?" he asked as he sat next to her on the bed.

"You didn't sleep next to me last night. I felt lonely and I couldn't sleep right away?"

"Reivin…" Tala said while he mentally cursed Katana. "Blame Katana, okay? And I'm not disgusted, I could never be." Tala bent down and kissed her forehead and she smiled.

"Why should I blame Katana?" she asked as she sat up.

"Er…long story." Tala said with a laugh. "Can you walk now?"

"I don't know." Reivin said with a shrug.

"No problem." Tala got up and picked up Reivin bridal style. She gasped as Tala took her outside the room and into the living room where most of the others were.

"Morning Reivin, Tala." Tara said as Tala put Reivin down on one of the couches.

Reivin noticed that Tara was playing with a completely white kitty. And Rei was glaring daggers at the cat as Tara scratched the cat's ears.

"Where'd you get the cat?" Reivin asked.

"It showed up in the door step this morning. Isn't it cute?" Tara said as she hugged the kitty. "I call it Snowy."

"You're calling it an it." Katana said.

"She's right." Reivin said and Tara shrugged. Reivin then turned to Katana.

"Where's Kai?"

"He went out." Katana said quickly.

"To do what?"" Tala asked.

Katana was gonna answer but the door opened and in came Kai. Katana sighed, now that she wouldn't have to tell them.

"Hey Kai, where were you?" Tala asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Out." Was all he said as he sat down next to Katana on the loveseat.

Everyone gasped as they looked at him.

"You were out getting your ear pierced!" Everyone except Katana and Kai yelled.

"It wasn't the only thing I got pierced?" Kai said quietly but everyone still heard it.

"I'm afraid to ask, but what else did you get pierced?"" Reivin asked.

Kai raised his t-shirt revealing a golden hoop nipple ring.

"Oh my God?" Tara said and then turned to Katana. "You're okay with that?"

"I dared him to do it." Katana said and everyone gave her a "look". "I didn't want to get one by myself so I told Kai to get one too!"

"You got one!" they all yelled again.

Katana sighed and raised her shirt a little to reveal a belly ring with a dangling blue moon. ((A/N Blue moon…why the hell…Sesshoumaru blue….shrugs Don't ask me why I made it a blue moon 'cause I don't remember anymore…))

"Oh God! Who are you?" Reivin said, eyes wide. Katana rolled her eyes.

"Well, that was an interesting discovery." Tara said as she played with the kitty and the cat meowed.

"That's it!" Rei yelled as he hissed at the cat. Rei took the cat from Tara and went to the door. He opened the door and threw the cat down the hallway. "And don't come back you lesbian cat!" Rei yelled and went to sit down with his arms crossed.

"Rei! Why did you do that to the poor kitty!" Tara said.

"And what do you mean "lesbian" cat?" Reivin asked.

"Well, the cat was a lesbian! She wanted to do it with Tara! And I know it was lesbian because it was obviously a she." Rei said as he continued to sulk.

"Okay…Hey Tara?" Katana said.

"Yeah?"

"Your boyfriend officially lost it."

Rei glared at Katana and then continued to sulk.

"He's just jealous cause the kitty was getting more attention from Tara than he was." Kai said.

"I was not! The cat was really lesbian!" Rei yelled back.

"Sure it was Rei." Tara said. "But you should know that cat cant replace you."

"I'm serious! The cat was lesbian and wanted to bed you!"

"Rei, go lie down sweetie. I'm going to get you some hot chocolate and then you're going to sleep." Tara said as she stood up and guided Rei to their room.

"Well, that was interesting." Reivin said and Tala stood up. "Where you going?"

"I have an appointment." Tala said as he bent down and kissed Reivin's cheek. "I'll be back in a while."

"Okay, but don't stay long."

Tala nodded then turned to Katana and Kai. "Watch her, if something happens to her, you're both dead."

Katana nodded and Kai just crossed his arms but then nodded anyway. Tala then left the hotel.

Tala walked down a few blocks and into Claude's house. He rang the doorbell three times before anyone answered.

"Hi Claude." Tala said.

Claude rubbed the sleep out of his eyes and yawned. "Hey, come in." Tala went inside and Claude followed. They went to the living room and sat down on the huge couches they had.

"So, what brings you here so early in the morning?" Claude asked.

"I need to borrow a gun." Tala said seriously. Claude blinked.

"What for?" Claude asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I just need a gun, okay!" Tala said again. Claude's fiancée, Alina, walked into the living room. Alina had long, light orange almost blonde hair and blue eyes.

"Hello." She said shyly when she saw Tala. "Am I interrupting anything?"

"This isn't the best time, hon." Claude said.

"I'm sorry." She said. "I'm going to go make you some coffee now."

"That's okay, just go back to bed. It's still early." Claude said and she nodded and went back to the room. Claude sighed and turned back to Tala. "So, what did you need a gun for? I wont let you borrow one because you're not allowed to use guns, but I'm curious to know as to why you need one."

"I'm just really mad. At my "dad"." Tala said, making sure to put air quotation marks on the word "dad".

"Wasn't he in jail?"

"He was, but he escaped. He's the Ben Valkov. The child abuser and murderer they've reporting on the news!"

"Well, you must be mad that he escaped, but you should leave the police to try and capture him. You wont solve anything if you kill him."

I'm really sorry Claude, but you have a right to know. Tala thought as he sighed. "He raped Reivin." Tala said quietly.

"WHAT!" Claude asked as his eyes widened.

"He raped Reivin. You know, as in forced her to-"

"I know what rape means damn it, I'm not retarded!" Claude yelled.

Claude growled and held up Tala by the collar of his shirt. "Why didn't you help her" Where the hell were you!"

"It was when you "supposedly" called her! She told me to go back to the hotel because she wanted to come see you alone!" Tala yelled back.

Claude pushed Tala back down on the couch and sat back down himself.

"I can't believe this happened." Claude said as he sighed. "What did she ever do to the guy?"

"It's my fault." Tala said. "He wanted to get back at me, and he did it through Reivin. Look Claude, I'm really sorry."

"Don't be. At least you told me, I would have killed you if you didn't tell me."

"Now, about the gun?" Tala said.

"I can't believe I'm doing this." Claude said mostly to himself as he got up. He went to his room where Tala guessed he kept his gun collection. He came back with 357-magnum revolver ((1. This is a hand gun, can't really explain it, you'd have to do a search on it. Doesn't have much of a kick-back its range is short, pretty good for a beginner or someone who just needs protection)). Alina was walking after him.

"Claude, you can't give him a gun!" Alina said. "He's underage!"

"Alina," Claude said as he turned to her. "His dad, Ben, raped my little sister. I can't stand by that. I'm willing to do anything to get that man to pay for what he did."

"Claude, by him killing Ben wont give Reivin her innocence back! Then Tala would be just as bad as Ben!" Alina said as she started to get teary eyed. She always cried easily.

"You should be more worried in finding out if there was an after effect about the rape before it's too late."

"After effect?" Tala and Claude asked at the same time.

"I meant that you should check if she got pregnant by the rape!" Alina said as she rolled her eyes. Tala literally fell off the couch.

"You think she would be pregnant!" Tala said, his eyes wide with horror.

"It could be possible. But it wont be for sure unless she starts showing symptoms to the pregnancy." Alina said.

"Oh God!" Claude yelled. "Take the damn gun." Claude said as he put the gun in the case and handed it to Tala.

"Nobody listens to me anymore." Alina said as she sighed and went back to the room.

"Well, I better go. I told the others I'd be back soon." Tala said as he headed towards the door.

"Well, bye then. Take care of Reivin, okay? And seriously, don't use the gun unless you really need to." Claude said as Tala left the house and started on his way back to the hotel.

Tala got to the hotel and found Reivin watching TV. Tara and Rei were in the kitchen, and Katana and Kai were also watching TV, though they weren't paying much attention.

"Tally! You're back!" Reivin said as she smiled. She saw the case and her smiled quickly vanished and turned into a frown. "What are you doing with that?"

"What's in the case?" Katana asked. Tala ignored her and went into his and Reivin's room.

"I can't believe he got that." Reivin said.

"What are you talking about?" Katana asked.

"That case…it's one of Claude's gun cases." Reivin said as she looked down. "Tala went to get a gun from Claude."

"Oh God, he's taking extreme measures." Tara said as she came from the kitchen and sat next to Reivin.

"No, Tala's not like that…he can't kill anyone, no matter how horrible they are…" Reivin said as she started to cry. Her eyes suddenly widened and she got up and ran to the bathroom. Tara followed her and held her hair back as she threw up into the toilet.

"Reivin, what's wrong?" Tara asked.

"I don't know…" she said as she threw up again.

"TALA!" Tara yelled. "Get in here! Something's wrong with Reivin!"

Tala ran to the bathroom and panted. "What?" he then saw Reivin and his eyes widened.
