I think this is the longest chapter I've ever written. . . wow. It's not as great as it could be, because I'm still half asleep (I have to write this when my parents aren't up). . . so please don't pay attention to typos or bad descriptions! ^-^

~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~

Tala forced himself not to scream. The same thing he had tried not to do when he was young. His eyes were no longer diamonds, but dull cut glass. After a few hours, he could no longer feel his "father" pumping in and out of him. But no blood ran from his body, for it was how he was. . . created.

'I am a monster. I was created. I'm nothing but pieces of scrap put together. Just look at me. . . and what I have done to Kai. He was so innocent behind those cold eyes. . . he used to trust me. What have I become?'

He wanted to cry, but that was one thing he could not. For he was merely a toy. A copy of a human.

//Help me. Please. . .//

But even the voices of his long gone teammates did not reply. Just emptiness and echoes. Silent pleas circling within his brain, being his own. He was alone. He had. . . always been.

Samuel left to get his handcuffs. He had to buy alcohol and didn't want Tala escaping. But Tala couldn't escape. He was already trapped long before his father came along just a little while ago.

'I am so weak. Why am I like this? I'm supposed to be perfect. I could take him on and kill him. . . but I can't."

His dirty lips moved every so slightly as two words escaped into the cold air.

"Help me."

Samuel turned around from the door, his hand leaving the handle.

"What did you say boy?"

Tala did not answer.

"I SAID, what did you say boy? Get it straight. No one's coming to help you! You are nothing! You're not even HUMAN. Do you think anyone cares about you? I don't think so! You've killed off your team. Your dear old "uncle" Boris hates that you can beat him- one of your own creators. And that boy I saw. I saw the bruises. I saw the blood on the floor. He hates you too! No one will come for you no matter how hard you wi-"

But Samuel could not finish his sentence. For he had been knocked to the ground, a stream of blood trailing through his hair. Behind him stood a long, shadowed figure.

"Wh-who are you?" Tala's voice trembled.

The shadow stepped forth. It was Kai. He began to walk towards Tala, but a hand reached out and grabbed his leg. It was Samuel. A long pipe was held in his hand and he began to fiercely beat Kai.

"Hn! Well, your savior won't be "here" for long!"

Tala watched blindly at the blood staining the carpet. The blood he had never wanted to see. He saw the blood he had never wanted to spill. He put away all thoughts of "I'm not gay" and only knew one thing. His father would not hurt Kai.

Tala ripped out of the handcuffs, he wrists being torn. He loomed above Samuel in the dim light. . . then hit the base of his neck. He watched with no emotion as he dropped to the ground. Tala fell his knees and placed his hand on Kai's motionless body. He felt something deep inside of him as he saw his own cuts heal from his created body's power. It was something that seemed to kill him and tear him apart.

'Perhaps this is what is called "heartbreak". Perhaps this is what it is like to be human.'

But no more thoughts could penetrate. Tala picked up the phone and called and ambulance to help Kai. . . and Samuel. He wanted Samuel to be able to see his face properly when he killed him.

Tala had no injuries so he waited in the lobby until he was able to see Kai. He wanted to cry when he saw Kai's shattered body, and even more when he realized that he could not. But something tore at him inside. How he had hurt Kai. How he could not cry. How he would never be like everyone else. Kai's breathing seemed labored even with all the machinery around him. His eyebrows contorted in a worry look, the forehead was wrinkled in delicate folds.

"He seems to heal quickly. We can take him off all this machinery." The doctor softly said. Perhaps Tala's broken expression made him realize that Kai's state was not just an accident.

'He would heal faster. If only the mind control weren't in his system. Mind control. . . if I hadn't been so stupid, he wouldn't be in here right now.'

Tala's eyes paid no heed as the machinery was wheeled out. His eyes were fixated on the clock. 'Ten seconds to midnight. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. . .'

Tala placed his lips to Kai's at the last count. Kai. . . kissed back. Tala withdrew and opened his closed eyes. Kai calmly said.

"Hello, Tala."

The mind control had worn off. Tala didn't know what to say, but Kai knew what to do.

"Tala. . . seeing you fight for me through the windows of my covered eyes made me see. . . I love you."

Kai's eyes shone with fear. Fear of rejection. Tala was stunned. This was the boy who was the only one better than he was. But here he was, afraid. Tala answered with the only thing he COULD do. He placed his lips on Kai's then hesitantly lifted the edge of the hospital garb.

"Just because I'm in a hospital doesn't mean I can't do some things. . ." Kai breathed softly. He wanted this. He needed this. This was what he had longed for since he was a child.

~!~!~!~!~ LEMON WARNING!!!!~!~!~!~!~!~!~

Their hands roamed across eachother's as their lips never left eachother. He could feel Kai gasp slightly as his body was released into the cold air. One gentle hand slipped over Kai's raising member and stroked the bottom. Kai was overwhelmed. Never had he felt such. . . love. Lust, yes. But this was different. A playful finger kept on moving around the base and the kiss was broken off. Tala's soft mouth was placed over Kai's nipple, causing him to gasp. Such a feeling rushed through his body. Cold air was thrown onto the wet skin as Tala's lips left it. His lips were crushed as a passionate kiss was thrown at him. This wasn't wrong. This was right. No longer innocent, they craved for eachother.

Tala's head dipped down and he kissed the area around Kai's dick. It trembled and throbbed, but he did not touch it. Pre cum silently leaked out and Kai moaned in protest. The beautiful sound reached Tala's ears and a shiver ran down his spine. His cherry red mouth covered Kai's member and he sucked hungrily, starving for a taste of his beloved. Kai's breathing was in gasps and moans and soon Tala's mouth was filled with the glorious substance. He gave one long lick down Kai's penis, raising it once again. Tala's fingers reached towards Kai's entrance. One finger entered. Then two. Then three. Kai made glamorous noises as Tala's long, delicate fingers brushed over a bundle of nerves. Slowly, he entered into the smaller boy, going slowly but wishing he could just ram right in. Kai felt the same and wrapped his legs around Tala, pushing him in all the way. He gave a small scream from pain. . . yet with so much pleasure he could not contain it. Tala's lips opened into a small moan as he thrusted in and out of Kai's tight entrance. It felt so good and unlike anything else ever. His hand found Kai's twitching dick and he pumped it. First slowly, then faster and faster. With two screams, both of them released. Kai's abdomen was spattered in white, but they didn't care.

~!~!~!~!~!~!~ OK, YOU CAN LOOK NOW.~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~

Tala rested his head on Kai's chest and breathed slowly, wanting to sleep. It didn't make sense. Tala did not need sleep. He was a creation. But the lights in the hallways dimmed and no one knew what had gone on in that room. Tala sighed slowly and thought is a bliss as he felt Kai's gentle breathing.

//Perhaps this is what it is like to be human. . .//

He didn't hear the voices whisper silently into his dreams.

//Yes, Tala. Perhaps you are learning how to be. . . something more.//

I'm expecting to go up to 75 reviews from different people. FLAMES COUNT!!! And to tell you the truth, I don't care about flamers anymore. Because I know I have people who don't insult me and I'm perfectly happy with what I have. Why wish for another happy reader when you can be content with what you already have? I may have learned such a lesson too late. . . but I can always use it. Be thankful for what you have, everybody. One day. . . it will be gone.
