Spencer may have been one of the eldest of the children that were now inside the Abbey grounds. Though he did know of one person that had been, in this hell, for much longer than he had.
He was five, though he looked around eight, something that happened a lot around the Abbey. No one could be sure what age anyone was - it was rude to ask.
Spencer had spoken to the boy only once, and that was because he had been ordered to tell the boy he would not be receiving any food for the next day or so. He had remembered the pleading red eyes that seemed to be full of dread.
No one believed at first that the boy was Voltaire's only grandson. Spencer couldn't see any resemblance, though he had never seen the owner of the company face-to-face he had seen glances of him on television. That was it though.
The tyrant of the Abbey was Boris, the one that had been left to train everyone in the building to become strong and emotionless. Spencer had to go check if the boy was still sane, or at least not dead. Even if he was dead, that only meant that the guards would find a new victim and Spencer hoped it would not be him. Even if he did not like to speak he still hated the shouting.
The boy walked up the cell which the boy was last placed in, Spencer stopped when he heard someone sniff. It was not light enough to see the very back of the prison that held the boy, so Spencer had no idea if he had the right one or not. He hoped he did.
"Hiwatari?" The boy's voice carried to the ears of many; listening and waiting for a reply from the rebellious grandchild that had been known to have many mood swings. The sniffing stopped.
Kai had always been called, Hiwatari, since he had been in this horrible place. He hadn't really wanted to leave everything he knew behind but then again. His grandfather wanted him to...
He stood up slowly feeling weak, as he strained his body even more to move closer to the steel bars. He looked up at the blonde boy.
Oh yes, he remembered him - the one that informed him that he wasn't getting anything to eat. Kai hated him.
Kai hated everything and everyone. Kai blinked and waited for the boy to say something else but looked more confused on what to say than anything else.
"Here." Spencer kneeled down, and managed to hand a square piece of bread to the bluenette that had not eaten in some time. Kai gripped the bread but did not pull it away.
Kai had a doubt that this 'Spencer' boy was simply teasing him - that he was going to take the bread away anyway and leave him hungry. Kai blinked, confused when the boy had let go of the other side of bread and stood up. Spencer nodded and left.
Kai didn't know if it were real, he stared at it, watching to see if it turned into something else. Suddenly he felt a pain in his stomach again, as fast as the little boy could he eat the small morsel of food he was kindly given. He no longer hated Spencer.
After the small feast, the boy went back to his corner, he had found out if the guards couldn't see anyone in a cell... They would more likely to leave him alone, and not shout abuse.
He sighed, and curled up in a tight ball, thinking of everything that had been and gone. He knew that something was wrong about this place - he didn't know why his grandfather even made him come here.
Why couldn't he stay at his last school? The boy mentally and physically shivered, he shook his head. He didn't like his last school...
Kai had been constantly told that everything was going to fine at that school. His new school. He trusted what his guardians had said and went to school happily... Though when he had returned home he even threatened to just run away so he could stay as far away for it.
It had stared when he stupid enough to say his two-toned haired as natural. That's when it started.
"It is my real hair colour!" Kai had tried to explain over and over again, even on his first day no one was giving the boy a benefit of the doubt. They just saw him as an easy new target for bullying.
"No it's not! Grey hair! Grey hair!" A taller, older boy bellowed in his face. Kai hadn't been frightened so much, he had never had anyone so close to his face before - at least not shouting.
Kai had been surprised and giggled when some comments had been passed when someone had seen him because of his hair, eyes, everything was so strange. He hadn't minded it then...
"Look at his eyes!" A girl shrieked, as Kai glanced at her, she scrunched up her nose in distaste. She hated anything abnormal. Anything that wasn't normal should be destroyed - her father told her that.
Kai bowed his head, sniffing hoping that they would leave, but it seemed that the two older children were waiting for something.
"Devil eyes! Grey hair! " The boy shouted, and the girl cackled. Soon there were a pack of children chanting the same thing over and over until he ended up crying and sobbing.
Devil eyes! Grey hair!
Devil eyes! Grey hair!
"L...leave...M-e! Alone!" He shouted hoping that they would take the hint that he really was getting upset over it. Though the group seemed to double in numbers and everyone started laughing - laughing...and pointing.
"Cry baby!" The new chant had begun.
Cry Baby!
Cry Baby!
It got worse and worse the children began to make more and more names...
The Devil Girl Is Crying!
The Devil Girl Is Crying!
"Stop it!" The small boy shouted out, some people stopped seeing the distress that he was being put under. Kai looked at them, hoping they would stop the others. He had seen another boy looked at him in a sad and sorry way - a pitiful way, then someone shouted out another version of the chant.
With the simplest of words he makes us sad
Particularly with breath that bad!
The group that had surrounded Kai began to howl with laughter while Kai began to cry more and more. He needed to get away...
He hadn't even known he was running until he went passed the school gate. Though he continued to run faster and faster away from the school of nightmares. He didn't go home... Not at that point.
His grandfather had found him crying - on a swing. He didn't look too happy. He didn't say anything he just watched the small boy cry and cry then finally gave small smile to the boy.
"Would you like all of those pathetic children to disappear?" Kai only nodded now feeling a great weight come off his back.
Kai shook his head he had wished he had never agreed to what his grandfather had asked. All those kids...
Kai had doomed them all. He'd killed them all...
Kai stared to sob quietly, why did things have to happen to him?
Kai hadn't wanted them all to die, just to stop their onslaught, but now that the police would be searching for the killer he had to be taken here. He had to live through another type of hell.
The Abbey, was no social event it was hard to make friends, yet it was not forbidden. At the moment the new kids, that had been taken would go through hundreds of tests which would take around three months altogether. After that they would be taken to an actual classroom and dorm, and taught about beyblading and then when they were a certain age would start training.
No one died because of the Abbey. It was the strange sense of weakness that the place gave that made everyone so afraid. That they would be killed if they ran or told. No one could tell anyone though, police never came to investigate and children were too scared. The teenagers were already moulded into the perfect solider idea.
The guards varied, most were cruel or would hit a child if they got the better of them, but nothing more. All the pain would be caused when the children would be collected. There was no point in murdering a whole family to gain a child that would die in a few months from beatings.
Shortening the food was not to kill anyone, but the pain that was caused when Kai had nothing to eat for a few days was almost unbearable - it would stop him from showing Boris up again. For a while anyway.
The children selected, for the abbey were not random, it could never be. They were children that could do something better than any other in their whole school. Kai didn't find it fair - he wasn't great at anything so why did he had to come here?
Spencer had probably been the strongest and most adaptable, by the looks of things. Kai had met another boy that was very quick in learning some languages... Which had confused Kai completely.
The cell unlocked, he heard someone walk in and Kai glanced up to see the normal masked man with the blazing red eyes. Boris sighed.
"Get up, you're going somewhere!" He barked, as the small child stood up and made sure that their were no crumbs to be found on him. He didn't want Spencer getting into trouble.
The bluenette made no attempt to protest when Boris grabbed him by the collar. How he hated his neck to be touched by such a pathetic adult. Unlike most of the children at the Abbey, Kai was not afraid as much as Boris. Maybe it was because his grandfather was his boss? He didn't feel fear, just hate when he saw the man. Hate that would continue until he could have his revenge.
Boris hauled the boy down the corridors of the Abbey. Kai had never gone this far into the place before, what would happen to him down here? Would he be killed and just be thrown out like trash? A sudden strike of fear shot through the boy's system, what was he to expect?
He was thrown into a large room, there were other kids in the room… Kai glanced up at them when he noticed it had been the blue-eyed, red-headed boy from earlier and gave him a blank look. Something was odd - when did Boris give him the chance to meet new people?
Kai was still on the floor, he didn't have much energy to do anything except from breathe, he needed food. He lay there on the cold and disgusting ground.
Tala walked up to the bluenette, he had wondered if the saying, 'someone in the world will be you're complete opposite' was true. In this case he was beginning to believe it was.
The boy had blue hair and red eyes, meanwhile it was the exact opposite for himself. He gave a small smile to the boy but did not even receive a look that held any emotion he just looked up as if he were looking at someone stupid.
Tala made another attempt, maybe he was hurt and couldn't get up? Tala held out his hand for a moment while Kai eyed it carefully hoping that the boy really did want to help him. It was Tala's turn to give the boy a strange look, he was confused on why it was taking so long?
"Need any help?" Tala asked, looking down on the younger boy. Kai thought about replying but he was took hungry to do anything all he wanted was to go to sleep. He shook his head - he'd stay on the floor.
