The Forgotten Son
Kai's POV:
Well this sucks.
That was the first thought that ran through my mind as I sat on one of the many desks that had been set in the Great Hall. Around me was a couple of other of the students who had joined 'Dumbledore's Army' for our joined-detention. There was around five of use already waiting in our seats, us getting here early seemed to make Professor Umbridge happier. Not that I honestly cared though. I only arrived early due to my urge to get away from Rei and Tyson's constant bickering.
Sighing heavily, I glance up at Umbridge who was sitting smugly in Dumbledore's old chair/thrown. The grin on her bright pink lips turned my stomach; it had to be one of the most disturbing sights I have seen in a long time.
The woman had become unbearable since she had been appointed Headmistress by the Minister. She's a bitch; she made it so students couldn't be within 8 inches of each other, I don't know why that bothers me, but it does.
That pig-lady also got hid of all the fine paintings for all over Hogwarts, she is such a-a…I don't even think there is a curse bad enough to call her! I mean those paintings were alive!…well sort of, you know what I mean!
The day after Dumbledore's escape she had ordered me and my team to 'her' office to discuss our reason for attending Hogwarts. Just as I had suggested we convinced her that we all came from families that were born with the abilities of an element and had been invited to the school to learn how to control it.
Sighing, I glanced up at the witch as the last desk in the hall was sat in, Umbridge stood from her seat and began to hand-out her own quills with a sickily-sweet smile "You all will be writing lines during this session" she stated causing me to raise an eyebrow at this; she wanted us to write lines? What kind of punishment was this? "You will write 'I will not disobey the rules' until I say you may stop, understand?".
"Yes Professor Umbridge" we all groaned, wanting to get it over with already.
"Excellent! You may begin!"
Rolling my eyes I pick up the quill that had been sat on my desk and gave it a disapproving look; what I wouldn't do for a ball-point pen. I sigh once again and look around for the ink, but strangely, there was non.
One girl from Ravenclaw raised there hand up "Professor? Where's the ink?" she asked coursing Umbridge to smirk at us.
"There will be no need for ink" she stated in her shrill voice. Glancing around, I saw a couple of students just shrugged and started writing, I however narrows my eyes suspiciously and started writing too. Strangely, with every stroke of the quill a red mark was left on my parchment just like a normal ink-pen. After writing 'I will not disobey the rules' about three times, my left hand started hurting; glancing over at it I saw small burn-like markings slowly forming on my hand in the shape of what I had written. I could barley see it so fare, but at the rate it was forming it would be very noticeable soon.
Hissing in pain, I looked at around from under my fringe to see everyone had pained-expressions on their young faces. I also started wincing at the pain too and after writing the sentence around seven times I could feel whimpers try to escape my throat. Not wanting to humiliate myself with the sound, I dropped the quill before taking a deep breath and closed my eyes; trying to block-out the pain.
'Calm yourself Hatchling' a voice whispered in the back of my mind, making my eyes open open in shock.
'Dranzer?' I asked through thought.
'Yes. It is me. I want you to concentrate and focus on the burn' Dranzer tells me calmly, I nod slightly and close my eyes once more. 'Excellent. now you know that burns are made from intense heat so I want you to take all the heat from your hand and place it in your right hands fingers' she instructs me in a calming but strong voice.
'What will that do?' I ask in confusion.
'It shall stop the pain if you remove the heat. If you put the heat where your holding that quill it will block it from sending the heat to your other hand' she explained with an annoyed sigh; I bet she just wished I would do as she asks with no questions asked.
'I see. That way it will be no different from a normal quill.' I think understanding the concept.
'Yes. Your burn should also heal in a mater of minuets'
Opening my eyes once again, I pick up the quill again, glancing up at the 'Headmistress' with a smirk upon my face and started writing again.
End Kai's POV:
After about an hour Umbridge stood from her seat and looked over the students' pained and crying faces with a grin, maybe that should teach them not to disobey her "You may all put your quill's back onto your desks" she stated causing the students to sigh and sob in relief at the pain finally ending. Resting the quill back down on his parchment, Kai stared up at Umbridge in a calm but smug manner.
"I hope this lesson has sunk in, you may all head back to your dorms in an orderly fashion" Umbridge grinned, looking as though she was about to burst into a fit of laughter at their misery.
Rolling his eyes at her, Kai quickly raised from his seat and headed back to his room for a good nights sleep.
x-x-x-x-x
It was on a Sunday morning around 8:00am when the BladeBreakers walked into the great-hall for breakfast, they were all wearing their normal, everyday winter clothes seeing as it was the weekend. Bladeing equipment securely strapped to their belts as usual.
When they walked in thier fan-girls(and boys) gave loud sighs and had dreamy-looks on there faces causing the Blader's to anime sweat-drop at the reaction. As they headed over to the Slytherin-table Kai saw Hermione wave at them as a sign to come over to her.
Sighing at his study-partners enthusiasm he tapped Rei on the shoulder to get his attention. Nodding his head towards the other end Gryffindor table, Kai walking towards the brunette; while leaving Rei to tell the rest of the team who had been distracted by their new fan-club.
"Morning" Kai grunted as he sat-down across from his study-partner.
"Good Morning Kai" Hermione smiled at him and then at the other Bladers as they joined them. "I wondered if you might need some healing-balm for you hand?"
"What's wrong with your hand?" Tyson frowned along with the rest of the team.
"Che'" Kai grunted and opened his mouth to explain when Ron jumped in.
"Tha' 'ow us' ma'ic 'ills in 'ention"(1) he stated through a mouth full of food.
"Huh?"
"Ron! Don't talk with your mouth full!" Hermione shrieked at his rudeness.
Rolling his eyes at the behaviour Kai turned his attention back to his team "Professor Umbridge had us use magic quills during detention; they induce pain for the user and burn whatever you write onto your hand" he explained, ignoring the shocked and outraged looks on the others faces.
"WHAT?"
Ignoring them once again, the salt-haired teen turned back to the brunette "Your offer is appreciated Hermione-san, but I have already healed my own wound"
"Oh…alright" Hermione smiled slightly before going back to her meal.
After the awkward silence was broken Tyson and Daichi began to cheer for Ron, who was now trying to fit five pancakes in his mouth at once. Cringing at the sight, Rei and Max turned their attention on each other and started talking about cooking so they didn't have to look at the disturbing sight.
While Hermione tried to pull Harry from his depressed state Ginny turned her sights onto Kai, who was reading another Bladeing magazine "Aren't you a Slytherin?" she asked raising a eyebrow at him.
Kai didn't even raise his eyes from the article he was reading before answering her "Yes".
"Then what are you and your friends doing of our table?" she asked leaning on the table to give him a suspicious look.
"Dumbledore said I could" he stated simpily, but once the name 'Dumbledore' was said Harry's attention was straight on him.
"He did? Wait, why aren't you four in a house?" Harry asked leaning on the table to see all the Blader's, the sound of Harry's questioning voice coursed Kai look up to him.
He was about to answer when Daichi butted in "We cant; we have no wizard magic" he said in-between eating.
After Daichi said this all the Blader's, Hermione, Harry, Ron and Ginny all steered at him; the Blader's looked at him in shocked/anger while the wizards looked at he looking confused.
Gritting his teeth, Kai reached over and hit Daichi hard on the back of the head "Watch what you say" he hissed lowly "For all we know, Umbridge could have spy's in Gryffindor".
Blinking in shock at the violent action, Hermione turned to Kai "What did h-" she started but stopped when she saw Kai shoot her a murderous glare.
"Forget you ever heard that" he growled at the young wizards who all nodded nervously coursing the rest of the Bladers to all sighed in relief.
After a couple minuets of even more awkward silent's, Kai's head popped up to see over the others heads when he saw a bleached blond hair on the other side of the hall.
Kai leaned past Ginny and patted Rei on the arm to get his attention, Rei immediately stopped his conversation with Max and turned to his Mate, "Rei, you wanted to know who Malfoy was?" Kai asked evenly and Rei's eyes narrowed and clenched his teeth at the name.
"Yes" he said as calmly as possible through his gritted teeth.
Kai nodded, not noticing the murderous-look that was scaring the rest of the group and pointed to Malfoy who was sitting at the Slytherin table talking to his 'friends' "That guy with the bleach blond hair is Draco Malfoy" Kai stated, putting his arm back down.
Rei's head violently snapped towards where Malfoy was and snarled, getting up from the bench and walking over to Draco. Seeing this, Kai also stood-up quickly and gave the Neko a suspicious glare "Rei, what are you doing?" he asked with a sharp, questioning voice, but Rei paid no mind to it and just kept stalking towards his pray.
The others were looking at him now, wondering what he was doing. Kai glanced at the Headmistress's chair to see that Umbridge wasn't there at the moment, sighing in relief Kai turned back to Rei again; he was now right behind Malfoy. Once Malfoy noticed him, he raised a dark eyebrow, stood-up and turned to Rei so they were face to face.
"What do you want, you filthy mud-blood?" he asked mockingly, looking up at the slightly taller Chinese teen.
Rei bared his fangs at the brat and growled "What makes you think you have the right to hurt Kai?" he said while hissing like a cat.
Malfoy smirked smugly "I have 'the right' because he's a blood traitor; being friends with Potter" he stated, smirking like a jackass.
Rei's face suddenly turned red in anger, he pulled his arm back and punched Malfoy in the face fast as lightning; sending the bleach-blond flying over the Slytherin table.
In that one move the whole Hall stilled in silent shock; the Slytherin's gasping at the barbaric action. Suddenly the students from the other houses cheered in loud cat-calls and applauding.
But what nobody saw was when Rei punched Malfoy a green mass of electricity was sent through the shorter teens form from Rei's fist. Rei stood there panting for air with a smirk while Draco's 'friends' pulled the unconscious teen up, only to see his hair was sticking strait up all over the place(What? He was electrocuted!) before they quickly carried him off to the medical-wing.
The Bladers rushed over to Rei who, still very proud of himself, was slumped over and panting heavily. Kai glared at the Neko pulled him back to there table to sit down. Kai sat next to Rei and looked at him with slight concern "Rei? Are you okay?" he asked rubbing Rei's back trying to calm him down. After he had stopped gasping and nodded.
Excepting the answer, the phoenix gave him a harsh smack to the back of the head like he had done with Daichi earlier. "OW!"
"That was for ignoring me and doing something stupid and rash!" Kai snarled, scaring the others on the table.
"Sorry…"
"Hn" Kai nodded, turning back to his breakfast, not noticing the longing and apologetic-look Rai shot him from the corner of his eye.
