Lost

Chp. 5

"You made the right choice, reptile," Karai snarled to Leo making him smile.

"Oh baby, your turning me on, bondage is totally my style, but I never thought it would be me tied up," he said in a mocking manor as the foot soldiers dragged him along side Karai who was looking annoyed at this time.

"Throw him in the holding cell! I grow weary of his big mouth," she growled ripping the pendant from his neck, his eyes snapping up at her in anger at the action.

"Damn it Karai! I didn't really give a shit about the girl! I came here for you to personally give me answers! What the fuck is that thing! I know you need me for something or you would have killed me in Japan!" his shoulders bashed into the foot holding him knocking them to the floor,"Karai! Answer me or I swear I'll kill you now! How did you know I was back in New York three monthes ago? Are you stalking me or something? Why is it every time I turn around I find foot ninja who don't wish to attack, but seem to be waiting for me to do something?"

He had broken open the ropes around his wrists and he was holding onto Karai's shirt now, but she didn't seem to care she just simply smirked to him making him even more angery.

"Answer me!" he yelled not noticing the foot behind him get up, but by the time he noticed the dart he shot it was too late, each of his nerves began to shut down as he passed out against the ground.

"In due time, my friend," she smirked as foot ninja grabbed the unconsiose turtle and dragged him toward the prison cells,"In due time..."

...

In the back alley Don just couldn't help but feel his brother just did something rash and stupid, but was relieved to see April ok. Casey was next to her his arms wrapped tightly around her not ever wishing to let go. Don looked ahead of him and instantly curiosity brimming inside him.

On the ground barely a foot away from April was a battered old journal lying on the ground, as he began flipping through its pages he instantly knew it was his brother Leonardo's, just by looking at the neatness of the hand writting.

...

He stepped off the plane, his eyes instantly widened, he had never seen anything so beautiful as this before or atleast from everything he could remember. Japan truly was wonderouse. He hoped that this is where he belonged. He walked around endlessly through its streets for hours it seemed, Tokyo was just so big.

His eyes caught something that made him sigh, it almost completly ruined his new found sense of wonder. A thug had a girl slammed against a wall of an empty alley, his hand upon her mouth and his other hand working its way up her skirt. Keeping to the shadows, he took the first strike on the man, punching him to the ground away from the girl who crumpled to the ground like a paper doll. To his surprise the creep actually wasn't a bad fighter, his strikes were precise and each more deadly then the last, but the turtle simply swayed away from each strike and the creep found out soon enough that his strikes were far more deadly. He knocked the man out using a garbage can lid, then simply cracked his neck and began going on his way as he heard the sounds of sirens blaring in the back ground, unknown to him that someone was watching him from the shadows.

Later that day, a boy who didn't look much older then himself, with long black hair swept into a pony tail, inky grey eyes, wearing a black school uniform and had an aura about him that you wouldn't want to pick a fight with him, stepped in front of his path with a smile on his face.

"Your a very good fighter," he said simply to the turtle's surprise in english, his voice had a harsh accent but he was still speaking perfect english.

"Thank you," he said not knowing what else to say, the boy still smilling to him stuck out his hand.

"I'm kyo, and you are?" he said the other simply staring at him not knowing what to say but even before he could answer the boy contiued,"I see you are one who doesn't know himself, that is alright, isn't it? I can tell by how long it takes you to answer such a simple question," he paused noticing the other had his full attention," I can help you find a new self to rely on since your old self is no longer here to guide you."

The other stared at him in disbelief still no words finding their way to his mouth as the boy finally came to the point, the reason he had stepped in front of him in the first place.

"You are a very good fighter and the organization I work for is always looking for good fighters no matter who they are or where they come from, you could say we are like a familly and we will always stick together," his simple smile broadened as he saw the other turning the question over in his head.

"What type of organization?" he asked softly, Kyo simply began to walk away turning back his head softly telling the other to follow.

"We are know as the foot clan and we are honarable ninja," Kyo explained as they walked on, his life was about to take major change, but he didn't know if it was for the better or the worst.

Blood splashed across his face as he slammed the blade down farther into his victim, his face hardened, he couldn't find the emotion to show as the one he once called friend stared into his eyes. He just simply drew his sword from Kyo's stomache and as he heard a gasp of air escape him, he cut his head off. The smell of betrayal over coming the scent of blood that now filled his nostrils.

The sound of clapping was heard around him, that was when he first met her, he was covered in blood, blood of his only friend. His friend who had betrayed him by trying to kill him in his sleep and take his pendant for himself. His punishment for his crime was he supposed to commit sepuku and have an honorable death, but since he refused, he was to fight to the death with the member of the clan he had tried to kill.

It was supposed to determine which of them were more worthy to be in the foot clan, but all he felt it was, was mindless blood shed, like everything else in the orgainization was now, at first they did seem honorable, they fought as body guards for anyone who paid them and killed who ever tried to harm the ones who paid them, but that logic was no longer there anymore after the last words Kyo had told him.

His mind turned away from those thoughts though as she smilled to him with her radiant smile,"You are the victor I see, you are a worthy ally."

That was the first time he met Karai, when she descided that he would be her personal body guard. She was so sweet to him then, but when he turned away, he soon realized how ugly she could be. And how far she was willing to go to get what she wanted.

...

His eyes softly opened shaking the memory away, his hands were bound above his head and he now understood why he was her body guard, she was earning his trust, she needed him for something he knew, and the amulet was involved somehow. In the depths of his mind he was still trying to find the answer to why he meant so much to Karai's plan, but still another part of him was too tired and still numb from the drug that had shot him with to care.

"If only I knew for once," he groaned shutting his eyes again, another head ache starting up again.
