Chapter 17: He's back again

(Your POV)

It's been a few weeks since the Christmas ball and New Year's. You and Kai have gotten closer after what happened. Sometimes just the two of you have been together, walking in the snowy park or sitting in your apartment drinking hot chocolate. Today is going to be different. When you wake up this morning the snow is falling heavily outside your window. You're going to Tyson's to blade today and you're looking forward to see them all, especially Kai. You just finished brushing your teeth when the door bell rings.

What? I wonder who that is. Maybe Hilary forgot I was meeting her there. You walk to the door and unlock and then open it. You freeze when you see who it is. The two men in dark suits and dark glasses smirk.

"We finally found you again Miss Reiko, Now please come with us," one of the men says. You stare at them and remember the last time you met these people. The warm flames that danced out of the windows in your old apartment and the waterfall in the forest (1). You start backing away from them into your apartment. They follow with evil grins.

"Now, now Miss Reiko we don't want any mess do we? Just come quietly," the second man says. You keep backing away with your eyes locked on the two men. Then suddenly they charge. Before you can escape they have caught you and bound you. The bigger of the two picks you up and throws you over one shoulder. You struggle to get lose, but with no luck.

"Stop that. You know you won't escape. You'll just end up hurting yourself," he says irritated. You glare at his back and mumble the most ugly words you know true, even the bandage is covering your mouth. They take you out of the door and head for a black van. They throw you in the back, then drive off. While bumping and rolling around in the back of the van, you wonder what will happen to you, and if the others will realise that something is wrong.

(Kai POV)

You're at Tyson's, waiting for Reiko. The others have already started the training saying she probably just slept in.

Reiko never over sleeps. Something's wrong. You decide to go and look for her. Walking through the snow heading for her apartment you can't help but feel tense. Since the Christmas ball when you kissed her, you've become so close, but still not close enough. You finally dare to admit to yourself that you love her, but yet haven't found the courage to tell her. You know she cares about you, as a friend. To her the kiss under the mistletoe was just, well tradition. To you it was so much more, because it was when you touched her lips you realized how much you actually care for her.

How am I going to tell you Reiko? You're the only girl I've ever wanted, you know that don't you? So why do you still pretend we're just close friends?

You decide that you have to tell her soon, or you might lose her again. Just then you walk up the stairs to Reiko's apartment and find the door open.

That's strange she wouldn't leave the door open like that.

You walk over to the door and glance inside.

"Reiko? Reiko are you here?"

You walk in and find the living room a complete mess. The leather sofa is on its back, the table is lying on its side and the vase that once stood on it is in pieces on the floor with the water and flowers spread across the floor. Some of the glass from picture frames lies crushed on the floor too, and the pillow in Reiko's favourite chair is also on the floor soaked by the water from the vase.

"What! What happened here? Reiko?"

You run through the rest of the apartment looking everywhere for her, hoping not to find her as a lifeless body. You find nothing and when you return to the living room you understand what happened. The men from the very first time you meet Reiko, if they had found out she was alive and then found her here... You walked over to the phone and called Tyson.

"Yeah Granger here," Tyson answered.

"Tyson, Reiko is gone, her apartment is a mess. I think I know what happened but I'm not sure. Meet me at the BBA as soon as possible."

"What, Kai? You…"

"Just get your ass over to the BBA I'll explain there!" you scream in the phone then hang up. You clean up the mess the vase made, gather the pieces of it and throw it in the bin. The rest has to wait for later. You find Reiko's keys and lock her apartment as you leave, then run to the BBA.

(Bladebreakers POV)

After Tyson told you what Kai had said on the phone all of you leave for the BBA. It doesn't take long before all of you are in Mr Dickensons office.

"You know what happened to her, don't you?" Kai said, his voice filled with anger. Mr Dickinson sighs and looks sad at you.

"I was afraid this would happen. Reiko told me about the men who burned down her previous apartment. I've been investigating it and I'm afraid that my findings are very disturbing," Mr Dickinson answered.

"What do you mean disturbing? You found out who sent those guys?" Tyson asks.

"Yes I did, and that's what so disturbing. The one who sent them is none other than Boris himself," he replies.

"WHAT?!!!!" all of you scream in shock. Last year you beat Boris for the second time and now he is back again. When will he understand that he will never win? Kai thought.

"You can't be serious! He's back again?" Tyson exclaimed.

"I'm afraid so. Now, what he wants with Reiko I don't know, but I doubt it's anything good."

You all sit there in silence, absorbing what Mr Dickinson has told you. Kai is the first to say something.

"If Boris has taken Reiko, he's taking her to Russia and most likely the abbey," he spoke the last words in disgust, and the others didn't blame him.

"That does make sense, since the abbey is the only place Boris can do as he wants," Tala agrees.

"What do you think he'll do to her?" Hilary asks worriedly.

"Knowing Boris he'll probably use her for another one of his sick experiments," Bryan continues. No one says anything, but they are all thinking the same.

We have to save her, but how?

A short while after, it's decided you all are going to Russia. Mr Dickinson orders tickets as soon as possible, and the next day you're sitting on a plane to the cold northern country.

(Your POV)

It's been hours since the men came to your apartment, maybe longer. You don't really know how long you been in the back of the van, but you know they put you in a box and felt them dump you in a new place. After thinking about it you figure out it's the cargo hold of a plane.

Are they smuggling me to another country? You think as you feel very uncomfortable inside the little box. After a while you fall asleep and don't wake up until just before the plane is about to land. Through the holes in the box you feel fresh, cold air. Someone takes the box you're in, dumps it in a car and then you can feel the vehicle start moving. You don't have many layers of clothing on so it doesn't take long before you start to get cold and end up in even more pain inside the box. When someone finally opens the box, a sharp light blinds you as a pair of arms grab you and place you on a chair. The man disappears and everything becomes quiet. Your eyes adjust to the light and you look around. You're in some kind of lab, there are a lot of strange instruments and big tanks with weird green water in them. The walls are made of stone and the room is cold. Your body feels like it's been hit by a truck. Lying in that box for so long has made your muscles stiff and body sore. Suddenly a door to your right flies open and in comes a tall man with purple hair, cold eyes and crooked nose. He speaks to the men in the room with a thick accent in a language you don't understand, but believe to be Russian. You sit there and stare at them with hate in your eyes. Then the man turns his eyes to you, and in perfect English without any accent he says,

"Miss Reiko, finally you have joined us."

He smiles at you, but you don't return it.

"You must excuse the way my men have brought you here. I told them to be gentle," he continues. You just glare at him, there's something about his nice tone and appearance that doesn't fit together.

"What do you want with me?" you almost whisper.

"Oh but Miss Reiko don't you know who I am?" he asks with an evil grin....
