Trust me and everything will be fine.

DISCLAIMERS+WARNINGS+A/N= see last chapters, to lazy to put them on again.

sorry to all you people who wanted Rei in this chapter, but I updated the wrong chapter, and I was too lazy to correct it, please forgive me, I made this chapter a flashback, so that it is easier for me to update, so that I won’t have to change chapters and stuff.

Chapter 3

FLASHBACK (normally this wasn’t one, but hey, give me a break, I updated.)

Voltaire and Tala stood in front of a hospital door, the doctor stood beside them.

“Now I’ll have to warn you, Kai is in a pretty bad condition so don’t look too surprised if he looks like he has been in hell and back again.” Said the doctor.

Both Tala and Voltaire nodded. They opened the door and stepped in the room.

Both gasped because of what they saw: Kai was lying on the bed, almost bandaged every where and where there not bandages there were bruises, it was like there was no normal skin anymore, just bruises, wounds.

Voltaire spoke to Tala.

“Tala, you stay here, I’ll have a talk with the doctor okay?” his face was grey, and he looked old, and sick. How could anybody have hurt a child like that, he did not know.

Tala nodded slowly. He didn’t look forwards to watch an almost dead relative, but strangely from the moment he walked inside that room he felt a surge of over-protectiveness run through him, but that had to be because Kai looked so vulnerable like this.

Voltaire has left the room and spoke outside with the doctor:

“When can he come home?”

“After he wakes up and is tested to see if he’s well enough to leave the hospital, you must be glad sir, it’s only because you have donated so much many that you can take him home so soon, most people have to wait for day until they can take their relatives to home with them.”

“And when will he wake up?” Voltaire said, breaking through the doctors speech.

“We don’t know but our best guess is that if he isn’t awake in a month that the change of him waking will be very small to non-existent.”

Voltaire nodded. And went back inside Kai’s room where he saw Tala holding Kai’s hand whilftlyftly whispering that everything will be okay, that he just has to trust them.

“You know Tala” said Voltaire “that once he wakes up he will be like a brother to you?”

“Yes, I do know. I always wanted a little brother.” Tala said, a small grin on his face. He knew that his grandfather wanted to cheer him up, and that it was working a little.

“The doctor told me that if he doesn’t wake up in a month that he will never wake up” Voltaire hated lying against his family, so he rahter tells the harsh truth.

“He’ll wake up, grandfather, he is family of us” Tala said with so much convincion that Voltaire looked strangly at him.

“What has that to do with him never waking up?”

“He’s too stubborn to not wake up.” Tala said and he clearly believed in it. Voltaire laughed a bit. It was true that his family was stuborn as hell. Once Tala had refused to speak with Bryan, his boyfriend for days, only because he accidently told him that he was stuborn. It had lasted about two months until Bryan had come and tell Tala that he had mistaken.

It had taken another two weeks until Tala had forgiven Bryan.

For the days to come they had decided to not leave Kai alone ever. As Tala was in school Voltaire was with Kai.

And if Voltaire had to go away for work, Tala would skip school so he could be with Kai. It was not like he learned stuff there.

And so it went on and on till it was the third week after Kai’s hospitalisation, and the hope of his waking up was growing slimmer and slimmer.

It was Tala’s turn to sit with Kai and then the door opened.

Tala thought it would be his grandfather, but he was mistaken.

There by the door stood a boy with black hair and dark bleu eyes looking around the room.

When the boy’s eyes landed on Tala and Kai, both Tala and the boy, Damon of course asked:

“Who the hell are you?”

“I’m family” said Tala defensively.

Damon sneered and said (A/N: if I read Harry Potter, I like the slytherins the most.)

“And what for a family”

“What are you doing here” Tala almost growled all the while looking ready to attack Damon.

“I’m a friend of Kai’s and I’m the one who called the police.”

“You called the police?”

“Yes I did, so what?”

“Well then I own you my gratitude.”

“What.”

“Well, you saved Kai’s live. If he stayed with his parents for much longer he wouldn’t survive.”

“Oh, Iuld uld have done it as soon as I knew he was abused.”

“You knew?”

“Yes, but he let me promise that I wouldn’t tell anybody, he is quite convincive if he wants to.”

“Oh, okay. So who are you?”

“Oh, I’m Damon, Kai’s best friend”

“That’s nice, don’t Kai’s other friends want to come and visit?”

“Well Kai doesn’t have any other friends.”

“Oh too bad, well you told me your name and I tell you mine, It’s Tala and I’m Kai’s cousin.”

“Well a pleasure to meet you.”

Then they heard a knock on the door and in looked a woman and said, “Damon, honey we really should be going home okay”

“Okay mom, just a sec.”

“Here is my telephone number Tala, would you please call me if there’s any news about Kai?”

“Of course, bye”

“Bye”

And then Damon left.

Three days later, it was again Tala’s turn to sit with Kai and then it happened: Kai opened his eyes.

Tala almost fell out of the chair he was sitting in.

“Hello, how do you feel?” Tala asked, softly, after coming from his shock at seeing Kai awake.

Kai let out a groan and then tried to speak, but his mouth was too dry, something that is completely normal after being asleep for such a long time.

Tala took a glass of water that was standing on the table beside him and holds it to Kai’s lips.

“Here, drink this.”

Kai drunk greedily, to greedily, he almost choked in the water.

Tala took the glass away from Kai who was momentarily coughing and waited till he stopped coughing. After Kai stopped coughing he tried to get the glass back but Tala would not let him have it.

“Now, Kai you can drink some more but slowly. Promise me you will drink it slowly”

Kai nodded and Tala gave Kai the glass but s till holds it himself. Kai drunk, slowly like he promised.

Kai was slowly wondering where he was, how he got there, and who that Tala was, but he was to sleepy to think about it much.

After he was done Tala took the glass back and Kai fell back asleep.

Tala immediately went to get a doctor, when he found Kai’s doctor he told that Kai waked up.

The doctor immediately went to get some nurses, and then he went to Kai’s room.

“He’s asleep again.” Tala said

“What did he do when he was awake?” said the doctor.

“Well, I said hello and asked who he was, his mouth was too dry too speak so I gave him a glass of water, he almost choked in it so I told him he had to drink it slower, than he drunk it slower and then he fell asleep.”

“Ok, well I doubt if he recognised were he was, and thatwas was half asleep.”

“Well he seemed that way; does that mean that he will be alright?”

“Well now his changes of getting better are twice as high as before, but that doesn’t mean that he will recover completely.”

Tala was happy with this answer and immediately went to phone his grandfather while the nurses examined Kai.

“Grandfather, Kai waked” Tala said immediately so his grandfather never had the change to say anything to him.

“”well, what did the doctor say?” Volt sai said after his shock was over.

“Well, the changes that he will recover have doubled, but there is still a change that he won’t recover completely.”

“Okay, that’s nice to know.”

“The nurses are examining Kai, but will you come here, you still remembered what the doctor said when Kai first arrived here don’t you?”

“Yes, of course I do, the said that if Kai wakes up and he is healthy enough we can take him home.”

“So, you’ll get your but over here so we can take Kai home with us.”

“Okay Tala, I’ll dismiss this meeting so I can come. I’ll be there in ten minutes.”

“Okay, bye”

“Bye, Tala.”

Voltaire dismissed the meeting he was having, some of the people complained, but since Voltaire was one of the most important business men of whole asia and europe, he had no problem with them.

“Mr Hiwatari, what can be important enough to dismiss this meeting?”

“Yeah, can’t you do that on a other time; we have better things to do than to go were and when you please.”

Soon everybody there was complaining.

“People, people,” Voltaire said, really loudly so his voice came above the noise.

“I’m must go away because one of my grandsons is in the hospital and has awakened out of a coma just minutes ago.”

This the bureaucrats did understand, so Voltaire left and went to his car
“To the hospital, Carlton” Voltaire said to his chauffeur/butler.

While Voltaire was riding to the hospital Tala made another Phone call to Damon, who he was seeing on and of. He really likes Damon.

“Hello, with Damon speaking.”

“Hey, it’s Tala”

“Hey Tala, any news?”

“Yes Kai has woken up.”

“What really”

“Yeah.”

“That’s really cool; too bad I can’t come right now, but I will come later to the hospital, I’ll call when I am coming, okay?”

“No I’ll call you later because Kai will probably go you my home instead of in the hospital.”

“Okay bye.”

Ten minutes later Voltaire arrived at the hospital and went to Kai’s room.

Tala was already waiting for him there.

“Well, how is he?”

“They wouldn’t tell me because I’m not his guardian.” Tala answered sourly.

Voltaire knocked on the door and entered.

“Ha, Mr Voltaire, we have been waiting for you.”

“Hi, who is Kai doing?”

“Fine, he is doing rather well, he waked up once in the examination and was afraid.”

“And that’s good because…”

“Well now we know that he recognises he’s no longer home.”

“And can he come home with me and Tala?”

“Yes, he can but he’ll be very wary and afraid of you and Tala, you’ll have to win his trust. He will be very weak and will move with much difficulty, his mind also is regressed to the mental state of a six year old, but if you keep him in contact with people from his own age he will turn back to the same mental age as them, but before you do that I’ll strongly suggest to let him heal completely and let him trust you and Tala, you’ll also have too watch him almost constantly the first two to three weeks.”

“Ok, thanks for the warning.”

And thus Kai went home with Voltaire and Tala, he waked up when they putted him in a wheelchair and Kai, who was afraid tried to move away.

Tala saw this and tried to calm Kai.

“Hey, Kai, calm down. We don’t mean to harm you, we just want to help you, and will you let us help you?”

Kai looked at Tala with big pleading eyes, he looked at Tala for a while, and then he seemed to recognise Tala.

“Water boy” Kai whispered softly, afraid that it wasn’t Tala who gave him the water glass

“That’s right Kai, I gave you water, will you now let me help you?” Tala said, a gentle smile on his face.

Kai nodded slowly, Tala lifted Kai in his arms and sat Kai down in the wheelchair.

“Now that wasn’t too bad”

Kai looked the whole time at Tala as if he waited to strike, but instead Tala rolled Kai out of the room and into the elevator.

When they were downstairs they meted Voltaire, who immediatnotinoticed that Kai was awake.

Voltaire stood low in front of Kai and said:

“Hello Kai, you probably won’t recognise me but I’m your grandfather.”

Kai looked at Voltaire and said softly and clearly still afraid

“Grandfather?”

“Yes I’m the father of your father.”

“Father bad.” Kai said rather childless.

“Yes I know, but I’m nothing like your father ok.”

“Ok” said Kai.

After this they took Kai to the car were Carlton is waiting.

Kai looked at Carlton who looked really scary: he was standing like a board, had a strange little moustache and had hair with a straight middle-line.

“Who’s that?” Kai whispered to Tala

“That’s our butler; he has to listen to our commands and gets us stuff, that’s where he gets pay for”

“He looks scary.”

“He isn’t scary, he is very loyal, he is rather stiff but that’s just one of his bad sides I guess.”

Carlton’s P.O.V

This child will be my new master; he can’t even stand on his own.

He’s terrified of every little shadow, just looks how he looks around himself and flinches at the smallest of sounds.

Now he says against Tala that I’m scary. Good maybe I if I scare him of enough he’ll leave me alone.

I can’t believe that this little snivelling rat is even related to master Voltaire, he isn’t even worthy enough to kiss the dirt on masters Voltaire boots.

Now Tala asks me to help getting Kai in the car, I do as I say.

If the masters are looking I’ll behave and I’ll do nice against Kai, but every other moment I’ve got I’ll make his live miserable. I just can’t stand weaknesses.

Well, I hope that you can guess who the bad guy is, so this is the beginning of the new plot.

Please review, and sorry to all you people who wanted Rei in this chapter, but I updated the wrong chapter, and I was too lazy to correct it, please forgive me.
