I own nothing! But soon I shall own the world. LOL ^o^ Just kidding. Or am I? Duh duh duh......

The place: Still in the kitchen with Brian, Spencer, Kai and Ray. Ian has just come downstairs.

Reminder: English is regular, Russian is bold, thoughts are italicized and lines separate conversations. Istarted off in English just so that Ray could be in the conversation.

Daddy Frickin' Warbucks

B- How's Tala?

I- Miserable. I seriously thought he was gunna try to kill himself last night. He started at the window way too long if you know what I mean.

R- What's wrong with Tala?

I- Why don't you ask your boyfriend? What the hell are you still doing here anyway?

K- Watch yourself Ian.

I- Sorry. (To Ray) Good morning Ray. I trust you slept well. That is if you even slept at all. And don't worry, you're annoying voice totally didn't keep everyone else up all night.

K- You are on very thin ice. Are you sure you want to continue speaking?

I- Yes, in fact I do want to keep talking because I just spent the entire night listening to Tala cry over YOU!

B- Oh dear. Me thinks Ian finally snapped.

S- It was bound to happen eventually. We kinda put a lot on him even if we do treat him like an annoying little brother.

B-We do make him do all of our dirty work. I'm just surprised he made it this long.

R- Anyone mind telling me what's going on?

S- Yes, we do mind actually.

B- Ignore him. But trust me you really don't want to hear them.

R- I hear them. That's not the problem. I just don't understand them.

B- Ignorance is bliss, my friend.

K- What the heck do Ray and I have to do with that?

I- Are you that dense? What do you think it has to do with you? You know exactly what is wrong with Tala. This is all your fault. How could you sleep with someone when Tala, who loves you and who you love, is in the same house?

K- Because it's my freaking house. Why does everyone seem to forget that. It's my name on the deed. It's my name on the name plate outside. I will do whatever and whoever I want whenever I want in my house. And you know why? Because its my house. Nobody said that any of you has to be here. No one ever said that Tala had to stay. As a matter of fact, I remember the four of you just showing up here one day and never leaving.

B- Well if you didn't want us here you could have just said so. We'd be perfectly fine living on the cold streets of Russia without you.

K- You know that that isn't what I was saying. I just need all of you to get off my back. I'm sick of you all acting like this is my fault. I tried with Tala, I really did. Do you know what he told me when I told him that I wanted to be with him?

S, B, I- Silence

K- No? No one bothered to ask him before you automatically jumped to conclusions?

B- Well not exactly. We just figured that that conversation didn't go over to good. I mean you two are obviously not together.

K- Didn't go over to good does not even begin to cover it. When I tried to talk to him in Russia he said that I was dead to him. He said that he didn't give a damn about me or that I came back because I left him then. When I told him that ray asked me out he said "So what." That's all. I asked him if that's all he said to me and the only other thing he said hoped we were happy together. I would have given anything for him to tell me that I couldn't be with Ray because he wanted to be with me. But he didn't and now you're all mad at me. It's all poor Tala and how could Kai do that to him? Nobody ever asked me how I felt. What did I ever do to deserve all of this?

S- You left us.

K- Why do you idiots keep saying that? Tala was my best friend. I loved him. You guys were my only friends; you guys were my family. Do you honestly think that I that I could just leave all of you like that, that while you were being tortured in that hell hole, I went to be some nice normal little kid? I wouldn't have done that to you and I thought that you all knew me well enough to know that.

B- What else were we supposed to think? Whenever we ask you what happened you just dodge the question.

K- So you just automatically assumed that I was adopted by Daddy Frickin' Warbucks and we all lived happily ever after. You are all a lot stupider than I thought.

S- So then, where did you go?

K- I don't know.

I- How is that an answer?

K- You asked and I just told the truth. You want to know why I never talk about what happened to me. I'm telling you now. It's because I don't remember. I can't remember most of my own freaking life and what little I do remember about it I wish to god everyday that I didn't. Do you know what I would have given to stay in the Abbey with you guys? Do you know what it's like to fall asleep next to your friends one night and to wake up a month later chained down in the middle of god only knows where to some guy telling you that your friends are dead? You couldn't possibly know what its like to find out that everyone you've ever known is gone. They told me that I had killed you too. The next thing I know its 3 years later and I barely even remember my own name.

B- What do you mean that you killed us too? Kai, what happened to you before you came to the Abbey?

I- You killed somebody? Jeez and here I thought Brian was the only homicidal one.

S- Kai, you can't possibly be that stupid. How could you have killed all four of us without one of us stopping you or without one of the guards coming in and killing you instead?

K- Trust me, you really don't want to know but I assure it is very possible.

B- How? How is that possible? Even on the best of days, I couldn't manage that.

R- Maybe I should just go. (A/n: Bet you forgot all about him, didn't you?)

K- I'll come with you.

R- Are you sure? I just didn't want to leave without saying goodbye. I don't want to interrupt you guys. I mean even though I didn't understand a word of that except for the names maybe, it sounded pretty intense.

K- Trust me you really didn't want to be in that conversation anyway.

R- Why does everyone keep saying that to me today?

K- Maybe because it's the truth. Anyway, I really need to get out of here.

R- Okay. Where do you want to go?

K- Doesn't matter. Anywhere but here.

As Kai and Ray walk out of the door, Brian calls out to Kai.

B- Look, we know it doesn't change much now but we're sorry.

S- Yeah. We know you wouldn't do that to us. We always did.

I- It was just…easier to picture you alive and okay than to accept the fact that you were probably dead in a ditch somewhere like the rest of them ended up, you know.

K- Yeah I know.

Kai and Ray leave and Tala gets up from his place at the bottom of the stairs. At some point of the beginning of the argument, he came down stairs to see what the commotion was all about. He knew it must have been serious because he had never actually heard Kai yell at Ian. Or Ian yell back. And they both sounded pretty pissed. Tala decided to stop at the bottom of the stairs to hear exactly what was going on but instead he decided to stay where he was and listen. (A/n: They seem to eavesdrop a lot in that house don't they?)

TBC

A/n: Wow Kai said a lot didn't he? But what did he mean when he said he killed somebody? And how is Tala going to react to everything he just heard? Is there still time to fix them? When will everything become clear? Who knows? I guess I do but that's not the point now is it? Thank you so much for reading. I will update soon but in the mean time, please review and tell me what you think. Thank you.
