Chapter 6: A Trader in our Midst?

After the captain heard what happened, he called for an emergency meeting. Everyone stood in front of the captain at Attention including Fury who was told to stay with Kai. Kai was laying on the ground with a pillow and a blanket. "Now that everyone is here, I want all of the people that had contact with Kai with me in my office. That is while he was sleeping. I want those of you to stand next to me now then we will head to my office." said the Captain. They all did as they were told, the ones that were proved not guilty stood guard on Kai.

After awhile everyone was proven not guilty. Then he had everyone stand in front of him again. Just as he looked back at Lucia, someone was just pulling a needle out of Kai. "So it was you after all. Drop the needle now sir." said the captain. The captain had a gun to shoot if he had too. The man who had drugged Kai jumped into the ice cold ocean. "Dammit! I'm sure he wasn't the only one. We need to be careful whose in to see Kai. New rule. The only ones who are allowed in to see Kai from now on are me Cliff Kaia his 3 brothers and the doctor. No one else. If anyone else want so see him they will have to wait." "Can you help him doctor?" Said Fury. "I will see what I can do." Then everyone went about their business.

I got up after a long sleep. Which felt like a long sleep. I went to see Cliff and Fury. I was still weak but I have to tell him something. I remember a little of what happened back then. I finally found Cliff and Fury. "Dad and Fury. Good I found you." I said weakly and wobbly. Fury caught me as I was falling. "Sorry Fury thanks. I remember something. Its not a lot, but it will help you find the traitor in our midst." "So he was working for someone and the captain knew it." Said Cliff. "Yeah. Well the accomplice is the one that jumped off and drugged me. The mastermind is still here. Cough Cough. I don't know who he is but, I can describe him to a T for you. He has Burgundy hair down to his shoulders and Magenta eyes. His hair is straight. He....He has a scar right by his right eye right here." I pointed to the side of my eye to show him down to the beginning of his cheekbone. "Does that help Dad and Fury?" " I will go get him dad. Be right back." said Fury. "Would you be able to tell if you saw him again?" "Yeah I think so. I will probably be able to tell you who else may be working with him if that part of my memory comes back." "Got him dad."

Fury was back with the man. I looked at him and he looked at me. I was shocked at who I was seeing. It was like a dream. Memories started coming back after seeing him. My head starting hurting. "Argh. My head. Please don't hurt the man. I know him. Argh. He didn't do anything. Hmm. Argh!" Then the guy with the scar tried to talk to me. "Kai. Its ok. You know I can help you. Would you like me too?" "No. I don't want you getting into trouble. You need to tell them who was drugging me. I know you know who is doing it." "Kai what are you talking about? You are the one who wanted to be drugged." "What? What do you mean?" "You really don't remember do you?" Said the man with the scar.

"OK you wanted to know my name right? I told you I would tell you when the time was right. Well I think it is. I am a man who met you quite a few years back. You were a little boy then. You were about 5 or 6. I told you to go into town and find someone to take you in. My name is Dragon. Sea Dragon if you must know." Then my headache stopped and I knew who and why I was being drugged. "Thank you for finally telling me your name Sea Dragon. I may not have my full memory back yet, but I know who and why I was being drugged now. When I was a little boy floating in the water Sea Dragon saved me. He was busy at the time so he couldn't help. So I did the only thing I knew how at the time. I cried for my mom. People where after me then too. The same ones who are after me now. Rin and Elias' parents are the reason they are after me. They are trying to drug me to see if I will give them information. I don't know what information they want. I don't know the business that they are in. Just that they are out for long periods of time and Rin always...." "Rin always what Kai?" said Cliff. "Hey Kai speak to me! Kai!" said Fury. "Sorry I'm ok. Its Rin. I think they are after Rin for some reason. She is in danger. I need to send word for mom. Dad send word as fast as you can. Tell her parents that they need to send her to a safe place." "On it son." "Mr. Dragon. Or do you like to be called Sea?" "Sea is fine." "OK Sea I'm going to need your help. Fury I will need yours too."

I told them how I needed their help. "Fury I want you and Dad to Protect the family. Our brothers and mom. Promise me if anything happens Keep them alive and you stay alive as well." "OK Kai we will do our best. I will find dad." "Sea I need you to help me find the one who keeps drugging me. I need to find out why I asked him to do it." "We don't need to look far. He is me. I have been the one drugging you." "Sea is that true?" Sea sighed. "Yes its true. The man who fled was just a flunky I wouldn't have killed him if he was found out but maybe he thought I would. Anyway as to the reason you wanted to be drugged, is because you said you were working on an experiment." "Wait. I thought I was being drugged for information." "Yeah that's what I wanted people to believe. There are people after her, I just hope she can be hid before they do. Like I said, you were being drugged because you said you wanted to experiment. You said you wanted to be drugged so you can be immune to most poisons. Should I stop until you get your memory back?" "Yeah I think that would be best. Although my body seemed to just get tired and feverish during the last dose of it. Waiting until I am back is the best thing. Thank you for helping me all this time." "I'm sorry for accusing anyone for all this." "Hey were brothers right?" "Yeah I guess so." "Well when you get your memory back you will remember.

"Dad! Did you send that letter off?!" said Fury. "Yeah I did. What's wrong Fury?" "Kai gave us a job. He thinks they may be after us. Now they know he knows what they are after. He wants us to protect mom and my brothers. He told me and you to stay alive as well." "Got it son. Lets go find mom."

"Cough Cough." I ended up coughing blood. "Shit. I thought the poison was out of your system by now." Said Sea. "Let me take a look at you Kai." So he looked at me and he saw there was still a little left. "Its not much to harm you, but I need to give you the antidote. Here drink this." I held my nose and drank a clear liquid. "There. It will put you to sleep in a few minutes then in about an hour or so you will be right as rain." I was about to fall over, then Sea picked me up. "Tell dad everything will be fine. Please tell dad everything ok?" "OK Kai. Just sleep." So Sea put Kai in his bed, and went to tell Cliff what was going on.

"Hey Cliff. I need to talk to you. Kai is ok. He is sleeping. He wanted me to tell you something important. Don't worry no one is going to poison him anymore. I promise." "Ok then lets go into the captains quarters. He should hear this too." "Yes of course. Fury you might want to stay and protect your mom and brother. We don't know who might be coming." "Yes sir. Thank you." So Fury did as he was told.

Inside the Captains office. "Hello Captain." "Oh hello Sea. What can I do for you and Cliff?" "Kai is asleep and no one is going to poison him anymore. Kai wanted me to tell Cliff why he was being poisoned and that I was the one who was doing it. Yes its true. I poisoned Kai. He wanted me to tell you why. He said that he wanted to make his body Immune to most poisons. He asked me of all people to do it. I asked him if he was sure before I drugged him. He said yes. The man who poisoned him was a flunky. He probably thought I was going to kill him so he killed himself. I gave Kai an antidote a few minutes ago because he was Coughing up blood when it was supposed to be gone so I checked him and it was only a little bit but he needed the antidote to get it out of his system. Also its true that the people after Rin might come after Cliff and his family now that they know you are Kai's family. Is there another ship or somewhere they can stay safe?" "Yeah I know a ship." Sighed Cliff. "I guess I better get on it too huh?" "That would be best. Kai will be safe with me and the others. I stopped the poison until Kai's memory came back because that is what he wanted." "Thanks Sea. I can always count on you." Said Cliff. "Ok give word to your ship as soon as possible and get out of here. They can arrive anytime." "Thank you Sea. I hope to see you soon." "yeah." So Cliff did as he was told and took his family on the ship and watched until the Captain and everyone was out of sight.

"Hey Captain. Sorry I didn't tell you I was the one poisoning Kai. He told me not to tell until I found out he lost his memory." "Its fine Sea. Thanks for telling me now. Thanks for warning us about these people coming. I need to prepare my men for battle." "That would be wise just in case. What I think is going to happen knowing Kai is he is going to stall time for the letter then he will beat the crap out of everyone that are after him. He may not look it, but he has got some skill. Don't worry. I'm still watching the kid." "Sea thanks." " No problem cap."

Sea was worried about Kai so he went into Kai's room to check on him. It had already been an hour and Kai hadn't woken up yet. He walked into Kai's room and touched Kai's head. "What the hell? That's strange. Its having a different effect than I thought it would. I hope he's going to be ok. I better stay here until I know for sure what's going to happen to him."
