"I've been meaning to ask you two something-" "Sh..." Mariah shushed Voltaire. "What?" "Sh... do you guys hear sirens?" Ray nodded, "I do." thena voice in a microphone could be heard. "We've got the place surrounded come out with your hands up!" They all looked at eachother. "Voltaire Hawatari we know your in there!" Voltaire stood shocked. "How did they find us!" he looked to Boris.
"I don't know sir. Tala, hit the self-destruct button!" he ordered. Tala took a picture off the wall behind him. There was a small red button that said self-destruct. He pushed it, following orders. Voltaire and Boris made a break for it, the rest followed them. The place was coming down already. Many Biovolt students had already made their escape. The gang had been running straight for a while until Boris and Voltaire turned a corner.
Mariah and Tala ran their way too. "You guys, the exit is this way!" Kai yelled. Mariah stopped, noticing that Kai wasn't beside her anymore. Tala stopped running too. "The escape tunnel is this way!" Tyson, Max, and Ray were already halfway down the hall that Kai told them to go down. "Mariah, come with me! You don't belong in Biovolt!" she wanted to go with Kai, but she couldn't. "My family!" she shouted.
"Mariah, you don't even know if they're still alive!" she gasped. "Kai! Are you coming?" they heard Tyson yell from down the hallway. The place was close to collapsing. The walls shook making crack, brick fell from the ceiling."Come on Mariah." Tala pulled her arm. "Kai come with me! You said you joined us!" tears dwelled in her eyes. Kai looked at the disintegrating place. "Mariah, I can't come with you!" he looked away from her.
"But, you can't save your family dead! Come with me and I'll help you get them back!" Mariah let the tears in her eyes fall. "Mariah, neither of us are going to live if we don't get out of here." Tala told her. "Then go without me! I'm not leaving without Kai!" she yelled at him. "I will never leave you." he told her strongly. A huge part of the ceiling broke and almost fell on Mariah, but Tala pushed her out of the way his leg getting caught under the brick. "Tala!" she cried, trying to pull him out. He gritted his teeth, trying not to cry out.
She couldn't get him out alone. Soon, Kai was at her side helping her push the rock off of him. The red head could no longer use his right leg. "So, are you coming?" Mariah smiled at Kai. He frowned and turned away from her. "I can't." He started to run down the hall. Mariah frowned as well. "Good bye." she helped Tala to the escape tunnel, hoping that Kai would be o.k. "I love you, Kai." she whispered, taking one last look at the place before climbing into a hole further underground.
Kai stood outside, watching as the ground the abbey was under crumbled. He looked to the ground. "I love you, Mariah." out of all the time he spent with her, only now did he feel the need to tell her that. He wanted to go with her, but there was no way he could return to Biovolt. Choking back a few tears, he heard his teammates call his name. "Are you alright?" Max asked him. Kai shook his head no and started to walk away. "Kai!" he heard Tyson call after him. "Leave him, Tyson." Ray held him back, knowing how hurt Kai must be.
He ran to a park and sat on a bench. Letting the tears escape his eyes, he admitted to himself that he did love Mariah. It to late now, she's gone. He swallowed, burring his head into his hands. I'm an idiot! How could I have let her go! with each tear that fell he felt more and more guilty. Like he should have dragged her if he had to, not leave her. I love you, Mariah. he said again hoping she would hear him and come running, but no such luck. She was still gone, he was still alone, and he still didn't know how she felt about him. He could hear the ambulance and police cars all the way from where the abbey once stood underground. "Why did I let her go?"
The Bladebreakers, minus Kai, sat in Mr. Dickingson's office. They all were devastated by what happened. "Boys I am sorry about what happened to Mariah." Mr.D apologized. It had been 2 days since the whole thing had happened. They hadn't seen Mariah nor Kai since. The smell of their hot chocolate was fresh in the was a place they couldn't wait to leave, and were going to if they ever find Kai.
A hooded figure roamed Russia. His red-brown eyes empty. He was empty... People and cars pasted him, the world kept spinning whether he wanted it to or not, but his world could not be found. It's name was Mariah. He hadn't slepped since that day, he hadn't eaten either, just wondered around the streets of Moscow...
He really had nothing to live for. Blading wasn't even close to where Mariah stood in his mind. If only this was a bad dream. Many times had he pinched himself hoping he would wake up and be able to yell at Mariah for wearing his clothes or messing with his CD collection, that didn't happen. He remembered when she first showed up at their door, he wanted nothing to do with her. Now, he wants everything to do with her. He was in love, plain and simple.
Walking into the door of a building, he noticed people staring. Maybe it was the hooded cloak. He took the hood off. People still stared. Walking to Mr. Dickingson's office, he prepared for thousands of questions. Slowly opening the door, he could see the rest of his team sitting in chairs across from him. Kai fully opened the door, for the rest to see him. "Kai..." Ray gasped. Tyson and Max were also shocked, but said nothing.
"Well, Kai it's nice to see you again." Mr. D greeted. Kai shut the door and stood by it, without a word. "Are you ready to go back to Japan." he knew this was coming. They had to go back, but this lessens the chance of him seeing Mariah again. He slowly nodded.
"Your plane will arrive tomorrow. Please try to get a good night sleep, boys. There is a room ready for you in a hotel down town." the elderly man announced. This would probably be the last chance Kai would have of meeting Mariah. He knew that and he believe with all his heart that she would come to the hotel and tell him that she had left Biovolt and wanted to be on the good side.
12: 03 A.M.
The gang sat on their bed not talking, not even Tyson, which was a surprise. Kai would have made a joke about it, but wasn't feeling up to it. Mariah, please. Come back to me. It had occurred to him a few minutes ago that she had no idea where he was, which lowered his chances.
He kept staring at the door, wishing that she would walk through it at any second. The doorknob began to twist. All eyes were on the door. It opened revealing Mr.D. They all sighed. He had a disappointed look on his face. "I'm sorry boy, but for some reason the plane is leaving tonight." Kai's head shot up. "What?" that's it he's crushed. No way she's coming now. "I'm sorry, Kai." Mr. D apologised again. The blue haired boy felt sad enough to cry... again.
They all got their stuff and walked to the limo that was taking them to the airport. Kai was the last to get in. Look, around one last time before they left. Who knows, maybe she's at the airport waiting. he tried to give himself a little hope. The airport was crowded, people were running everywhere. It wasn't a gotta-get-to-my-plane kind of run it was a gotta-live run. Screams could be heard everywhere. Mr. D and the boys knew something was up, but continued to walk. There in the middle of the airport stood Boris and Voltaire. Never before has Kai been so happy to see his grandfather, and right now, to tell you the truth, he still wasn't happy. That was as close to happy he was gonna get.
He looked around for something pink. His grandfather was yelling into a voice projector. "Come out Kai! We know you're here!"Kai glared at his grandfather even though he wasn't looking. The crowd had begun to clear and Voltaire could see Kai now. He dropped the microphone phone. "Hello Kai." he said in his high and mighty voice. Kai folded his arms. "Grandfather." he spat. "Kai it would seem that you took wrong turn when we escaped."
"No, I didn't. I came back to my real team." Voltaire smirked. "But, you joined us." he spoke in a creepy voice. Kai looked around and wondered where the heck were the police. Then he saw them. Biovolt students with machine guns all around. The crowd was to thick before and many students are short, that would explain why he didn't see them. Voltaire was confused by his grandson's silence. Still looking around, Kai managed to find nothing pink. That's when Voltaire figured it out.
"She's not here." Kai snapped his head toward his grandfather. "Who?" he asked pretending to have no idea what he was talking about. "Don't play dumb. Your wondering if Mariah is here. She's not." Kai tried to hide his shocked expression. "She told me tell you that she hated you and for all she care you can kiss her ass. Then she thought and said, and I quote, 'Nevermind he's to unworthy to kiss mine so tell him to go kiss a horse's.' unquote." Votaire said dryly. Kai had to admit, that did sound like something Mariah would say. He must have been telling the truth, Tala wasn't there either. He look away from his grandfather.
"I don't care if she's here or not! I'm not joining you!" the mad man smirked. "We're not asking this time." Soon, they heard a 'click click' sound. The boys had the gun facing Kai. "Let's go!" Voltaire ordered. "No!" he shouted back. "If Mariah hates me... there's no reason to live." It was very quiet. "You're evil, you know that. I'm ashamed to have the same blood as you. I don't know why these boys worship you so. You raised me and look how I turned out. A loner, never playing by the rules. Now, look at the situation. Over 50 guns being pointed at me because I choose not to join you." Kai laughed. "And we're related. Think about how fast he would kill one of you guys." he looked at the boys.
Some looked thoughtful, some stayed emotionless.Voltaire turned his back on Kai, "This is foolishness. Shoot him." he ordered. He and Boris walked far away. None of the boys moved. "Did you not hear me! I said shoot him!" he shouted. Ray, Max, Tyson, and Mr. D were far away from the seen. They were at the entrance. The police outside had long been noticed by them.Voltaire looked to Bryan who was standing on the side of Kai a few feet away. "Bryan, kill him." he had faith in one of his best students. Bryan looked at Kai and thought about his words.
He lifted the gun to eye level and aimed at Kai's head. The phoenix stood his ground. The lavender haired boy put his finger on the triger. He took a breath."Do it!" Then Bang!
The end!
(Readers run after Jashomara with fire and pitch forks) I'm just kidding! Go down!
The lavender haired boy put his finger on the triger. He took a breath."Do it!" Then Bang! "Ah!" Everyone stared at the sight. The male fell to the ground. It was dead silent. Then other boys dropped their guns and started to cheer.
Kai opened his eyes. He felt no pain was he dead? Looking around, he saw his grandfather lying on the ground. That's when he found out what happened. Bryan must have shot his grandfather instead! Kai breathed out in relief. The police had just ran into the place. They took Boris and Voltaire, who wasn't dead by the way, to their car. Kai walked up to the window and smirked at his grandfather. "You lose."
Voltaire gave a small laugh, "The girl still never wants to see you. I'm afraid it is you that loses." Kai watched in half anger half joy as the police car drove away. His friends ran up to him and hugged him. "Kai we're so glad your o.k.!" Tyson shouted. Kai could only give them a half smile. "Well, boys come on. I think you deserve a good nights rest in your own home." Mr. Dickingson smiled at them.Ray, Max, and Tyson boarded the plane, Kai decided to be last.
Looking around one last time, he walked up the steps. The airport was empty really, if you didn't count the police. They did have a few people on their plane, surprisingly. Ray and Max sat beside eachother and Tyson sat beside a plate of food the flight attendant brought him. First class, first servered. Kai sat alone staring out of his window. "Please fassen your seatbelts, we are about to take flight." the lady said over the intercom. (A/N: I have never rode a plane, so I don't know what the people say. I something like that, isn't it?)
Kai looked down at his lap. The plane had alread flown off the runway. All there was, was sea. Kai was pretty sure Mariah wasn't in there. "Good bye, Mariah." he said sadly.
"Good bye, Kai." came a voice. Kai looked around. O.k. now I'm hearing her voice, I'm gonna need counceling after this.Then he felt someone sit beside him. Tyson. was his first thought, until he looked over. His eyes widened in shock. "Mariah!" he smiled at her. "Did you miss me?" she asked him. "You don't even know." he said in a low tone. Smiling, she tilted her head to the side and stared into his eyes. Slowly the space between them got smaller until there was none left.
They kissed for about 1 whole minute. Then an annoying voice came, "Yeah, Mariah's been waiting to do that." They came apart. Mariah stared at the back of the seat in front of her. "Shut up, Tala!" she yelled at the red head, who was in the seat behind her. "Tala's here?" Mariah nodded. "Like I would go anywhere without my Tali." she smiled. "Anyways! You better be glad I saved your butt. What are you stupid? Just standing in front of Bryan, waiting to be shot!" Kai frowned.
"What are you talking about, you weren't even there." Mariah nodded. "Yes, I was. You just couldn't see me. I was way on the other side of you holding a big sign that said 'Shoot Voltaire or I'll kill you'!" the two toned haired boy sat back, "I don't believe you!" he looked away from her. "I did. Maybe I should have let Bryan kill you!" she yelled at him. "You know your starting to get annoying already. Go back there and annoy Tala." he closed his eyes. "Humph, your diary said I looked cute when I was being annoying it said you loved me for that." she smiled. "You little pink furball give me my diary!" It's true, I won't deny it I love the new her and Iwouldn't change a thing.
Jahomara: And there you have it readers. I'm finished! I hope you enjoyed it!
Mariah: I had fun in this story.
Kai: Yeah, you weren't the having 50 guns pointed at you.
Mariah: But, you were so cute being an idiot, standing there. I feel loved. -hugs Kai-
Kai: Now, can I ave my diary back?
Mariah: -Smiles, then runs away-
Kai: Hey!
Lady J and Jashomara: Bye!
