The journey to the airport was short and fast. As soon as they got out of the car, they ran to the building, always so very busy. They stopped near the door where a private guard dressed in black was waiting for Kai.

"Your plane is ready to leave, sir." Kai nodded and they followed the guard to a terminal were a "small" plane was waiting for departure.

They got inside it and sat, Kai near the pilot to focus his every move. Anything to keep his mind clear of ranting he did, sucking in deep breaths to keep himself from ragging at the smallest of annoyance.

Everyone felt the tension in the air emanating from Kai and kept quiet, to his liking as all of them worried about Ray just, their captain a lot more than the rest. The plane set off in the direction of China where all hell would break loose.

----Meanwhile in a secluded place, in a secluded village----

"Are you sure he is okay?" Lee asked the other boy, with long blond hair and emerald eyes.

"Positive, I mean isn't he supposed to be strong?" Lee glared at Charmie, who merely returned the intense stare.

While the two boys talked, Ray was waking up, stirring out of his blank dreams, hoping to wake up in his own bed but the discomfort made him believe otherwise.

"Where am I?" he said, not recognizing the place that he was in.

When his senses woke up fully, he managed to distinguish Lee and another boy, noting mentally to himself that there were ropes biding his wrists, not unbreakable but tight, every twist brought forth a heating pain.

"Back in your village." The blond told him sternly. "And who are you?" the raven-haired beauty asked him, not ever remembering of the visage and particular character before.

"I am Charmie and I am impressed that you don't remember me."

Ray searched his memory for anything about the boy, but, apart from some hazy blurs distorted and faint, he found nothing. Lee chose that moment to interfere.

"It was many years ago, how you expect him to remember?"

Charmie snarled; "I remember it very well… my scars made sure of it!"

Ray was confused; scars? He didn't remember leaving marks on anybody, that weren't in fits of passion late at night.

"Huh?" the fair-haired boy looked angrily at him "when we were young………

--Flashback----

(Charmie's P.O.V)

…… we used to live apart, but one day I came to the village, to visit my family…your family. I was six and you were ten and I wanted to play…but you spent the time at the streets, where they wouldn't let me venture…

You came home that afternoon, very mad because you lost a battle against someone.

"Ray! Ray! Wanna play with me?"

You glared at me, but I was oblivious of it and started tugging at your robes.

"Come and play big brother!" You pushed me out of the way and I went after you, intended on playing with you

"C'mon big brother! Play with me" You looked at me, clearly pissed off…but I was stubborn "Big brother! Play with me!" My little, squeaky voice was making you really mad and you screamed at me "No! Go away!" I kept talking, not knowing the danger I was in "But big brother! I don't have anyone else to play with!"

You were getting madder by the minute as I kept whining…then you released your anger…"GO AWAY! I DON'T WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU!" I started crying and instead of your motherly side, your feral side came out…and you beat me… until I was bleeding…you punched and kicked my little body, and your nails left gashes on my back, arms and legs… then you got scared of what you had just done and ran away, leaving me to bleed. Luckily my grandmother was passing the place and she took care of me. She asked who had done that to me and I stayed quiet…you deleted the event from your memory…but I didn't.

--End of flashback--

So you see Ray, behind that lovely mask of yours, there is a wild beast." Ray let the words sink in…was it all even real?

--On the plane--

Kai was sitting on the edge of his seat, ready to get up as soon as the plane landed. When it did, the worried boy got out of it, followed by his team. A black car was waiting for them…
