Previously...
His face was shadowed but his red eyes glimmered in the moonlight. He cursed and dropped Ray. Ray stirred slightly but due to the sleeping pills, remained asleep. Hilary ran over to Omen.
'What are you doing with my friends!' she yelled, hardly a foot from him.
She suddenly froze in terror.
'Y-you're the kidnapper!'
Omen sighed.
'I really wish I didn't have to do this...' he said in a cold tone.
'KAI!' Hilary screamed.
Kai was awoken instantly.
'...But you've left me no choice!' said Omen whipping out his dagger.
Kai regained full consciousness as he saw Omen and Hilary. Omen slashed out at her with a dagger, slicing her neck. Hilary's eyes were wide with fear, her face blank with shock. Kai was frozen as she began to fall back gracefully. Omen laughed sinisterly and ran into the forest with Max. Hilary's body hit the ground. Kai got off his feet and ran to her side.
'HILARY!'
----
Normal POV...
The moon had begun setting and the sky was getting lighter, indicating dawn was approaching. Kai ran to Hilary's side and dropped to his knees beside her. Hilary held her throat, blood trickled over her fingers. She saw Kai's face, he was... no... it couldn't be... was that a tear in Kai's eye? Hilary could feel the pain in her neck but the cut wasn't deap enough to have done any really bad damage.
'I'm f-fine!' she managed to croak,
'Are you sure?' Kai asked.
He didn't know what to do fr her. He took his scarf and folded it then held it to Hilary's neck. She closed her eyes, grimacing in pain. Kai sat her up gently. Hilary took the scarf from him and smiled, ignoring her pain.
'See if Rays okay,' she whispered.
Kai didn't want to leave her side, but Ray had more experience with medicine than he did. He looked at Ray then back to Hilary.
'I'll be back!' he said quickly then ran over to Ray.
He shook the raven haired teen violently.
'Ray! RAY! Get up!' he yelled.
He didn't wake up. Kai lost his patience. He grabbed Ray be the collar and pulled him upright.
'Hate to do this but you've left me no choice!'
He brought he fist back then punched Ray in the face. The teen was instantly awoken. He clutched a hand to his cheek and looked at Kai in shock.
'What the hell was th-!'
'Shut up for a second!' Kai interrupted. 'Hilary needs help! Omen cut her across the neck!'
Ray looked at Hilary who was sitting up weekly, blood soaking into Kai's scarf which was held across her neck. Ray didn't ask questions, yet, he immediatly ran over to his bag and pulled out the first aid kit, running back to Hilary.
'How did this happen?' asked Ray, fighting the whithering effects of the sleeping pills.
'Omen... he's the kidnapper! He's got the others!' Kai's voice was low and murderous.
Ray looked at Kai. His face was dark and looked sinister. At that moment in time, Kai wanted to hunt the red eyed teen down and kill him in the more brutal way possible. Ray cleaned Hilary's wound and exaiminded it.
'Wow, you're very lucky Hil!' he commented, 'Another millimetre and you'd probably been needing a pine box. You might need a stitch or two but it doesn't look like it. I'll just clean and dress it as best I can but we'll need to get you to a doctor and have them look at it just incase.'
Hilary nodded.
'Thank you Ray,' she said quietly.
She looked to Kai who was standing with his back to her a few metres away. Ray looked at them both then went over to Kai's side.
'Are you alright?'
Kai's eyes looked dark, burning with hatred and his face was forbidding.
'I went through his bag,' he said darkly.
Kai's voice made a chill go through Ray
'I found these,' he held out a white bottle of Sleeping Pills for Ray to see. 'He put them in the water, which we were all stupid enough to drink!'
There was a moments silence.
'Ray,' Kai said quietly, 'I want you and Hilary to leave this forest. Because when I find Omen I will kill him and... I don't want Hilary around.'
'Forget it!' said a soft yet angry voice behind them.
They looked around. Hilary was standing there looking mad.
'No! I'm not letting you go after Omen alone!' Hilary's eyes brimmed tears.
'Look,' Ray turned to her, 'Hil-'
'Don't you look Hil me!' Hilary interrupted angrily, 'I have been dragged through the forest, hurt my ankle, had four of my six best friends kidnapped by a murderer AND I was almost killed! I am not leaving this forest until I get some fucking payback on the bastard who caused all this!'
Hilary was almost screaming at them. She breathed hard. Kai and Ray were obviously taken aback by her sudden outburst. Hilary held her hands to her eyes, trying to hide the tears that wouldn't stop flowing. Kai smirked and hugged her. Hilary felt numb for a moment. She didn't want to cry, she didn't want to look weak, not infront of Ray and definitely not infront of Kai.
'It's alright...' whispered Kai.
He held her head against his chest. Hilary's cheek was pressed gently on his collarbone.
'Let it all out...' Kai whispered. 'Just let go.'
Hilary couldn't hold it back anymore. The tears and grief she'd been suppressing for so long finally broke free all at once. Tears poured down Hilary's face and she held Kai tightly, crying into his chest. Kai smiled and stroked her hair softly. The sky was lighter and the moon had completely set. A pinky misted colour was spread out across the horizon. Ray sat down on the log feeling terrible. He and Kai, being the kind of people they were, didn't cry but instead became silent and distant so as not to ruin their tough demiener, which for Kai would be all the time. Hilary cried almost hysterically.
'W-what if he k-k-kills them Kai?' she sobbed. 'M-Max, Tyson, K-Kenny... and... and l-little Daichi! I c-couldn't handle it if they d-died!'
'They wont die,' said Kai firmly.
'That's right,' Ray added, 'We won't let him!'
Hilary calmed down a bit. She believed them. Kai released her from his strong grip and looked into her ruby eyes.
'If you come with us, you have to do EXACTLY what I say, got that?'
Hilary sniffed and nodded. Kai smiled then turned to Ray who stood up.
'Let's go then,' he said.
----
Tyson was breathing heavily. He felt so weak. His shoulder kept throbbing with blunt pain, making it almost impossible for him to sleep. Kenny and Daichi, who hadn't slept the previous day, had fallen asleep in Omens absence and hadn't re-awoken when he came back a minute ago with Max over his shoulder. Tyson felt too weak to even sit up. The ropes which bound him to the wooden pole behind him were the only things that kept Tyson propped up in a sitting position. Tyson's head hung limply, his eye lids felt like lead.
Omen had finished tying the still asleep Max beside Tyson. He crouched infront of Tyson curiously. Daichi woke up and yawned. He almost yelped when he saw how close the black haired teen was to him. Omen ignored him and held Tyson's chin in his hand, lifting his head up to look at him. Tyson gritted his teeth.
'You're not looking so good,' Omen commented.
'Get your... filth-y... paws... off me!' he growled feebly.
Omen snickered unpleasantly. At that sound, Max woke up yawning sleepily.
'Good morning all,' he said, his eyes only half open, 'Is it breakfast?'
His head drooped but he pulled it back up again. Omen laughed. Max yawned again and opened his eyes fully. He went to rub them but instead felt a pain in his wrists.
'What the?'
He found himself completely tied up.
'Where on... Tyson! Daichi? Kenny!' Max looked at them widely.
Tyson rolled his eyes over to Max, Omen hadn't let go of his face yet. Max looked at Omen.
'Omen! Please! Help us!' he said hopefully.
Omen laughed sinisterly.
'M-Max...' Tyson croaked, hardly able to speak because of Omen's tight grip and also because his infected shoulder was draining him of energy.
His shoulder still bled but only slightly and slowing. Using Dragoon to make the injury bigger was a costly mistake but if it lead help to where they were, then Tyson didn' care. He would give his life to save his friends any day.
'Help you!' Omen said, pushing Tyson's face away roughly. 'Why would I do that! You're crazy Maxy!'
'You... you're the one who killed Mark and Silvia!' Max had caught on. His eyes burned with hatred.
Kenny awoke and saw Max with them. He looked down in depression, Omen only had to capture the other three now, then, he'd kill them. Omen smiled at Max's hatred.
'You're just as fiesty as Tyson!' he said in amusement, 'But as you can see,' he patted Tyson on the cheek roughly. He groaned. 'Even the hot-headed Tyson, has broken.'
Tyson looked down in weak sorrow. Max looked at him, as if urging him not to give up. Tyson coughed harshly then clenched his teeth. Omen looked down at him pityingly.
'I don't think you're going to be alive for very much longer,' he said casually, 'Bugger, I was hoping to have you all together before that happened. Ah well, maybe I'll just kill you know, put you out of your misery?'
Tyson clenched his teeth.
'Go ahead!' he said angrily, 'You know you want to, so do it already!'
'No! Tyson Shut up!' shouted Max, 'Don't you dare say something like that!'
Omen smirked down at Tyson murderously. Tyson smiled.
'You see...?' he said breathing deeply, 'He can't kill me, he wont...'
'And what gives you that idea?' asked Omen in mild amusement. 'It was easy for me to kill Hilary and I liked her!'
The four boys looked up at him in shock.
'No,' whispered Kenny.
'YOU'RE LYING!' Max and Tyson shouted together.
Daichi had tears in his eyes, 'You k-killed Hilary?'
Omen grinned widely.
'Sure did! You want proof?'
He pulled out his dagger and showed them. On the end, was a skid of blood that was painted on the edge.
'Too bad,' Omen continued crouching down, 'Quick slashes to the neck hardly ever leave blood on the blade, unless ya do it slowly.'
'Blood on a blade doesn't proove you killed her!' Max yelled, almost choking on his own words. His throat obstructed him.
'She tried to stop me from taking you,' the black haired teen said softly, 'She screamed for Kai, I had to silence her. I had to drop Ray, unfortunately so I had to alter my plans. Ah well, too bad for poor Hil, such a waste!'
The boys had their heads lowered. Kenny and Daichi were crying. Max and Tyson were on the verge of tears. Tyson felt like passing out but resisted.
'You won't... get away... with this!' Tyson managed.
'Our friends will find us sooner or later,' said Max angrily, 'Kai is going to kill you for what you've done, once we're free, we all will!'
'I'm counting on your friends to come looking or me!' said Omen, 'I'm hoping they walk straight into the mine! Once they do, they'll be deep within my trap! Oh and Tyson? Thank you for leaving that trail of blood! I was going to cut off one of Max's hands or something but then I spotted your little trail on the ground and your beyblade! I must admit, that was clever of you!'
Tyson gritted his teeth then hung his head in defeat. He prayed that his friends wouldn't find the trail he was foolish enough to create. Max looked at him sadly. Tyson had saved him alot of pain, and Max was very grateful for that. Tyson heard Max saying something but didn't understand it, as he shifted or the border into unconsciousness.
----
Kai, Ray and Hilary walked through the forest in the pale light. Something on the ground caught Kai's eye. Ray had noticed it too. They went over to investigate. Hilary stayed behind them. Kai bent down and picked up the object. Hilary peered at it over his shoulder.
'Is... is that Dragoon!' she asked in surprise.
Kai nodded and passed it to Ray grimly.
'There's blood on it!' said Ray.
Hilary looked at it again. The beyblade was almost completely covered in dark blood. Dragoon the bitbeast was glowing dully. The light was flickering and looked slightly duller than a moment ago.
'It's Tyson,' said Kai, 'He's dying,'
