Departures
Kai woke up next morning to his grand fathers voice yelling at a maid to wake him up.
Opening his eyes he was glad to see Angel still there.
'Angel, Voltaire's on the warpath again, you'd better go.' When she didn't move, he smiled. 'Ok, your choice.'
He got up and changed from the clothes he'd slept in the day before.
As he put his top on, Angel snaked her arms around him from behind, hugging him to her.
'Why is he on the warpath?' she asked, letting go of him and walking to the mirror.
'I don't know.' Said Kai shrugging into his top. 'Could be any number of reasons knowing my grandfather.' He watched as she tidied her hair into a ponytail.
'Thank you for coming yesterday Kai.' she said suddenly, turning to him and smiling.
'We've talked about this Angel.' he said walking over and hugging her. 'I did it because I love you.'
'I love you too,' replied Angel as she cuddled into him.
'But?' said Kai, noticing the tone.
'Mr Dickenson is sending me to check the other BBA headquarters.' She said sadly.
'How long will you be gone?' he asked, tilting her head up so he could see her eyes filled with tears.
'How ever long it takes me to do it. Two weeks minimum.' She started to cry now and Kai held her tightly.
'Master Kai?' called a voice from the corridor.
'Yes?' he answered, not letting go of Angel.
'Master Voltaire would like you to join him at the breakfast table right away.' The maid said, scared.
'Tell him I'll be there in five minutes.'
'Yes sir.' and the footsteps retreated.
'When do you leave?' he asked, running his hand over Angel's cheek.
'Tomorrow evening. I'm going to America first then making my way back via London, Europe, Russia,' Kai started. 'China, Australia and then back here.'
'He's sending you to Russia?' Kai let go of her, crossing his arms.
'Don't get angry Kai. It's just a quick stop at each place. Most of the time I'll be travelling.' She grabbed her new cloak. 'Gin will be with me the whole time.'
Kai felt a bit better at those words. Gin was ok.
The bedroom door burst open as Voltaire Hiwatari opened it.
'Kai come and eat.' He stared at the two. 'Miss Granger nice to see you again.'
'And you sir.' She replied. 'I'm sorry for not announcing my arrival and also for keeping Kai from his breakfast.'
'That's perfectly all-right. Would you like to join us?'
Kai stared at his grandfather. 'She has to go Grandfather.'
'Such a shame. Next time then.' He smiled at her as she opened a window and jumped into the tree opposite.
'How long was she here?' Voltaire asked, not looking at his grandson.
'She was there when I woke up. She'd had a rough day.' Kai stared at the open window.
'Well let us go for breakfast, things need to be discussed.'
'Yes sir.' he said, following Voltaire downstairs.
Angel jumped from tree to tree, finally landing in her back yard.
Taking off her cloak, she walked into the house and into the kitchen.
'Heya Angel.' Said Daichi as she sat down at the table.
'Daichi.' She said, helping herself to toast. 'Where're Tyson and my grandpa?'
'In the do-jo of course.' he said, wolfing down food. 'Your breakfast is in the oven.'
She got up and took her breakfast carefully out of the oven.
'Thanks.' She said, sitting down again.
'Hey sis,' Said Tyson walking in, grandpa right behind him.
'Tyson. Grandpa, thank you for my breakfast.' She got up and washed her plate. 'I need a shower before I go to work.'
She walked off and the boys looked at each other.
An hour later, she had packed her things ready for the next day when her phone went off.
'Hello, Angel here.' She said, expecting it to be Mr D.
'Hey it's Kai. My grandfather would like you to join us for dinner.' He sounded annoyed.
'Where and when?' she asked, wondering what was going on.
'We'll pick you up at eight o'clock. Grandfather's treating us it seems.'
'Ok I'll be ready. Love you.' she said, slightly anxious.
'Love you too.' and he hung up.
She opened her cupboard and and looked at her nicest clothes, picking out a suitable dress for this evening.
Looking at her watch she realised she was late for work
The next day, Mr Dickenson's car picked her up. She'd had some time to tell her grandfather and the others and also to spend some time with Kai before she left.
As she got into the car she was not surprised to see Gin, dressed in normal clothes, sitting on his own.
'Boss not sending us off?' she asked, looking at him.
'Too many things to do.' he said simply.
The car drove off towards the airport and Angel kept her eyes on the scenery rushing past. Thinking things over.
'Why send both of us?' She asked eventually.
'I'm not sure. He might be anticipating trouble.'
'I suppose so.' she said quietly.
The car stopped again and the driver blared his horn at the obstacle.
'What's going on?' Gin asked, looking out the front window, he sighed. 'Let him in.'
'Who is it Gin?' The driver asked.
'Kai Hiwatari.' Gin said casually.
'Kai?' Started Angel. 'What is he doing here?'
'We're about to find out aren't we.' said Gin as the door opened and Kai got in. 'What're you doing here Kai?'
'I've come to see you off.' He said, looking at Angel. 'or isn't that allowed any more?' he asked looking at Gin as the car drove off.
'You should have told us and we would have picked you up.' said Gin, crossing his arms. 'Otherwise it's rude.'
'Please stop arguing you two.' said Angel, taking Kai's hand in hers. 'After all Gin, we won't see Kai for a while.'
Gin harrumphed and looked away from her, his eyes concentrating on the scenery as Angel and Kai talked.
'We're almost there Gin.'' Came the voice of the driver. 'There's a bit of traffic though.'
'Ok. After we leave, please drop Mr Hiwatari home.'
'But, Gin he came-' Stammered Angel.
'He is a distraction.' Gin said sternly, grabbing his coat.
'No he isn't.' Angel shouted defiantly. 'He's my boyfriend and we love each other.'
The car inched towards the airport in silence.
When they got to the drop off point, Kai helped the driver remove the luggage, then stood looking at Gin.
'I'm not going to change my mind Kai. See you in a few weeks.' Gin said walking away, pushing the trolley.
'Kai, I-' Said Angel, then kissed him.
'Come on Angel!' Gin shouted from the entrance. He had intended to interrupt them and it worked.
'I know Angel. I'll miss you too.' He said hugging her, then watched as she followed Gin tot he entrance, holding his secret present to her in his hand.
Angel caught up to Gin and scowled.
'That was mean Hero.' she crossed her arms, putting her present quickly in her hand luggage. 'You didn't have to be such a jerk.'
'Why him Angel?' Gin asked, getting into the queue.
'I don't know.' She said, blushing. 'It just happened.'
Gin looked at her, then quickly pulled her into a hug. 'Don't worry you'll see him soon. The inspections will fly by.' he chuckled. 'Especially the Russian one.'
Angel smiled. 'I know, it's just I'm worried what the Panthers are gonna do to the Sharks while I'm not there.'
'Let's just concentrate on out orders, shall we?'
'Ok.' They moved into the check-in desk.
An hour later in the departure lounge, Gin chuckled as Angels stomach growled.
'Hungry?' he asked, laughing and standing up.
'And bored to death.' She said grumpily. 'I hate being in one place for a long time.'
'I'll go and get us some food.' Gin said wandering off and reappearing a few minutes later with a full tray.
'I forgot you ate like Tyson.' Angel laughed, grabbing some fries. 'Daichi's just as bad.'
'If anything I'm worse being older and everything.' he replied between mouth-fulls.
'Yeah.' she said. 'You never did tell me why you and grandpa had a fight.' She moved onto her burger.
Gin paled at her remark.
'Well, I wanted to look after you but grandpa wouldn't let me.' Said Gin with a sigh. 'So I walked out.'
'But why just me?' Angel asked, finishing her burger.
'Because you had power. Tyson has enough to be champ but your power was dangerous.' He finished his food.
'So I was basically dangerous?' Angel asked, her gaze at her feet.
'You still are. Even more so with Leopold.'
'That's why I'm never allowed in the tournament.' sighed Angel. She understood now why everyone was so fascinated by her and Leopold.
'Is that why you're with Kai?' Gin asked. 'So you can glimpse the tournament from his point of view?'
'No I don't mind not being in the tournament.' She stood up and took their rubbish to the nearest bin. 'I just don't want Kai hurt again.' she sobbed, sitting down. 'He does so much without thinking about himself, regardless of what other people think.' Gin was hugging her now.
'Shh,' he smoothed the tears away, aware of people staring at them. 'Maybe he should come with us.' Gin said, grabing his phone and dialling their boss. 'Hello, Boss? Gin of the Gale here. With a request.' He smiled at his sister.
An hour before their flight was due to leave, Kai arrived in the departure lounge, moving his head this way and that, looking for them.
People stared and pointed as he spotted the pair and walked over to them and casually sat down.
'Kai you came.' Angel said, grabbing his hand in hers.
'Of course I came Angel.' he said, giving her a smile. 'Why am I here again?' he asked, looking at Gin.
'Because Angel here was so worried about you and also couldnt be without you it seems.' Gin crossed his arms. 'You are to obey my orders though. Agreed?'
'Ok, ok, sure whatever you say Gin.' replied Kai.
'I'm really glad you came Kai,' Said Angel, kissing him.
'So am I Angel.' he said, hugging her. 'So am I.'
On the plane, Angel fell asleep, her head on Kai's shoulder and an arm around his waste.
'Kai, hurt her and die.' Gin laughed as Kai paled.
