I really like the reviews I'm getting.
Kai: No shit, everyone likes to see me get hurt. By the way it's like 8:39, why are you only now on the computer and updating your oh so good story.
Me: Oh shut up Kai, I had to clean my room, do the clothes, feed the dog/fish, and finish all this homework. So kiss my ass.
Kai: I don't think so, just get on with the chapter.
Me: Fine Oh and by the way, most of the bad guys right now really aren't you'll see what I mean later. I do not own beyblade: this is my disclamier.
Chapter Three:
Max slowly woke up and groaned. His head hurt and his world was bleary. He tried to move his arms but couldn't, he was tied to a tree. "Man, I got a headach," he thought as the pain in his head slowly faded. Movement caught his eyes and he jumped backing as close to the tree as he could pulling up his knees. "I'm so dead," fear talked in his head. A figure stepped out and Max recongnized it as the kidnapper. Joy.
The man had two toned blue slate like hair with freaky crimson eyes. He was about Tala's height, taller than him with strong broad muscles. On his back he carried a dead deer, or at least Max thought it was a deer.
"You hungry?" Kai asked looking at him. It was more of a statement than a qustion but Max nodded his head, his stomach growling. His captor said nothing more, but gutted and skined the animal. He walked toward a boulder and placed his hand on it.
Max gasped when he saw it turn red hot. He knew that the other four kingdoms and the avian people were not seperated by what they controlled. In his land, only water people or people who controlled water lived their unless they were Avian, Elf, Dragon or Demon. His people were really just people with the gift to control water, this guy could control fire but he looked human. (hope that explained the kindom division thing. If not let me know.)
"You can control f..f..f..fire?" Max stuttered. Kai ignored him and laid the good meat on the stone and watched as the meat browned. He walked up to Max and tied his ankles togather so he couldn't walk, than secured the rope to the tree. He took out a knife and cut the ropes holding his hands togather so he could eat. Max took small bites as Kai sat near eating little. Than he walked into the woods.
"Get back here."
Max jerked his head up. He swore he just heard someone out there. He opened his mouth to call for help when Kai came out of nowhere. The blue hair teen placed his hand over Max's mouth and forced him against the tree. "I suggest you shut up Prince. Those are merchants and entertainers. I'm sure they would love to add you to the show. So keep quit understand?" Max nodded, his eyes wide with fear. Kai disappered into the woods satisfied with his answer.
The slate haired teen stood in the shadows watching the wagon. Two men sat on top as an ox pulled the load. Behind them followed six teens, all shackled by ropes tied to the wagon pulling them forward. The first one was a buff blonde teen. He looked strong but worn, taller than most Kai had seen his age. The next two were Avians wearing their wings out proudly. The boy avian had silver hair and dark eyes. His wings were grey and his body slumped over. The girl behind him was smaller with light blue hair and dark blue wings. The boy behind her was taller and probaly the oldest. He had light blue hair and dark eyes. Prehaps Dragon blood. The next one was a small raven and deep blue highlighed haired teen. She was smaller than the rest and had elven ears. The last one was a wolf demon with a black hair and black ears. She had coal black hair and pale skin with green eyes. They all seemed exhausted.
Kai put an arrow to his bow and aimed it at one of the men in the wagon. Letting it go, the arrow hit it's target. The man slumped over and the other looked terrified. Kai shot another arrow, but it missed hitting the beast. It let out a pained cry before falling over on the grass dead. The wagon tipped with the weight and the other man fell. Kai didn't miss this time.
The group of forced entertainers watched as the men and beast was slattered in front of their eyes. They watched as a tall slate haired teen walked down from the hill he was hiding on. The bow and arrow on his back, he walked light footed and stopped in front of them. For a while they all stared at the newcomer. The teen pulled out a knife and cut the binding ropes. The other teens rubbed blood back to the wrists, confused they stood there.
"I have a camp nearby." The teen looked at them all with pity, his eyes lingering on the avians, "Your welcome to come and eat the food I have to offer. I'm afraid their isn't much water." With those words said, he walked back up the hill leaving these teens looking at each other in bewilderment.
"What do you think?" The blonde boy looked at the blue haired Dragon next to him. "What should we do Hiro?"
The oldest boy around 20 years old, stayed silent. "I really don't know. The ox was sick so it wouldn't be healthy to use him as a food source. All of the supplies the men brought with them are gone."
"Huh, those idiots didn't even know how to use supplies sparingly," the black wolf demon muttered. "I honestly think we should follow him. What else do we have to lose? Besides, we could kill him if he tried something funny."
"What is it with you and killing things Evenescence? Your getting as bad as Bryan," commented the elf. The avian grunted at the comparsion, his sister put her hand to her mouth as a gesture of laughing. "Besides, I don't think we should go. Not that we have another choice. What else are we suppose to do."
The blonde haired boy was at the wagon opening the back door. He pulled out a belt filled with daggers and tossed them to Bryan. He handed a heavy thick sword to Hiro, a large ax for himself, bow an arrows along with two bags of posion herbs to Evenescence, and handed a rapier to the elven teen. The Avian girl tugged on his sleeve and held out her hands. "What do you want Lexandra?" The girl folded her arms and pouted, she hated that name. "Okay then, what do you want Lex?" The girl smilled and moved her arms in slicing moments. "Oh, sorry Lex," he pulled out to swords and handed them to the younger female.
"Hey Spencer," the elf asked, "what do you think we should do?"
"I don't know Ilyana ( the name is ilyana- computer makes I and L look the same if i is capital and L is not. So sorry), my stomach says to go but my mind is just elsewhere. I'm not so sure we should trust him."
"Lex. sure does," Hiro nodded toward the avain who was walking up the hill. Her wings pulled into her back so she looked like a human and could move eaiser through the trees. The others shrugged before following.
When they got there, Kai looked up but didn't say anything. They cast a weary glance at Max, but didn't say anything. Kai handed them each a piece of meat and watched the teens start to eat from the fair side of the camp. Hiro' s mouth was so dry, that he started to cough. The meat was tough and his dry mouth couldn't handle it.
Lex put her hand on the ground and mentally called forth the water in the dirt. Her hand lifted from the earth guiding a small amount of pure clean water from the ground in the air. She used her hands to guide it toward Hiro and he opened his mouth drinking the water from the air. Her brother Bryan frowned. She shouldn't have done that, now their "savior" knew that she could control water and might want to use her as the men did. He involuntarily growled. He wasn't going to let her go through that again.
Kai raised an eyebrow as she guided the water toward her friend. He noticed the weapons at thier sides and waists. He mentally smilled, they thought he was a threat. He moved toward Max and retied him to the tree, the boy hadn't said a word since eairlier. He moved toward the boulder and sat down. He was suprised to look up and see that the female avian had moved and was sitting in front of Max. She pulled water from the earth and let him drink, than she pulled off some of her skirt. Wetting it, she washed his dirted face before giving him a smile and moving away. Kai followed with his eyes, he wondered why she was so trusting and what the hell he was suppose to do now. All five kingdoms had men searching all over for the prince when they didn't find a body at the end of the cliff.
"You can stay here for the night if you want. Don't mess with the boy," Kai looked at the avian girl. She just raised an eyebrow and stared back. Kai didn't care, he laid down and pretended to sleep. About an hour later, he heard the gentle breathing of all the other teens. They had finally gone asleep, and so did he trusting his sensitive ears to pick up any guards while he slept.
