He first heard whimpering. The truth was he wished to sleep some more. It had been such a long time he had closed his eyes and he wasn't tortured by any nightmares. But that constant crying forced him to open his eyelids. His head felt heavy, his body restrained and slowly everything began coming back to him. Like a tidal wave he was crushed with the knowledge of the previous hours. He had been caught, not only him but John too.

As he remembered the poor human he opened his eyes, searching for him with his blurry eyesight. It took a few moments for him to get used to the room. The light coming in from the huge glass windows. A ray of sun landing straight into his sensitive eyes and he frowned. The room was simple. A black carpet and a silver chandelier that was turned off. A huge king sized bed with silk red sheets and a plasma TV hanging from the wall right in front of it. A couch that could fit at least seven to eight people and a table which had many empty bottles of beer on it.

There was no one inside. At first glance Kai thought he was all alone, maybe he had imagined the whimpering. He had scanned everything he could see with his eyes but there was no sign of John or his captors. A few seconds passed in deadly silence only for the whimpering to be heard once more.

"John?" Kai asked worriedly.

"Boss? Are you awake? What the hell is happening?" he heard John's familiar voice. Soon he realized he couldn't see him because he was behind him. He felt a weight on his back that he assumed as John's back and he sighed. He shouldn't have taken him with him, he shouldn't have done any of these silly things in the first place. He had sworn not to look for him again. It was a promise he had made to himself, a punishment he had chosen for his mistakes but somehow he found himself unable to keep his oath now that he knew Philip had reincarnated.

The funny thing was, he wasn't expecting anything of this. If he was younger than twenty he wouldn't even recognize him and if he was older he would simply have to face his hateful stare, like the last time. The moment his world ended, the moment Kai took his life.

"John, I want you to calm down. I will find a way to get us out of here." he told him. He was trying to calm him down.

"Why were some superhuman teens after us? They called you a vampire. Please, Boss, tell me this is some kind of sick joke" the young man cried.

"I am sorry John, I really am. This is all my fault but I will get us out. Just give me a minute to think. When we get back you will get a proper explanation." Kai told him. He just needed some time to think and figure out a plan. The effect of the drug was still noticeable on his body, meaning that it wouldn't be so easy for him to just break his restraints. He had to use his brain but as he had realized a few times ago, two hundred years out of actions were quite enough to turn someone's instincts rusty.

John had turned quiet, willing to give him the moment he wished for but their captors seemed to have other plans. Their peaceful silence in their luxurious cage was broken,a group of werewolves entering. Kai hadn't paid much attention before but John was right, they were teens barely eighteen years old. A small friend group of three boys and a girl. They walked inside, holding bags with booze in their hands and locked eyes with their woken prey.

"Oh, they are awake" One of the boys exclaimed with excitement. He was the shortest one of all, he had long blonde hair and chestnut colored eyes. He rushed towards them, throwing the bags to the ground with no concern and crouched in front of Kai.

"Brandon. I think we should call the Alpha, or the Warriors. We shouldn't be keeping a vampire here without them knowing." the girl said. She seemed to be a bit scared, her eyes were avoiding Kai and she had let her black hair fall in front of her face.

"Come on now Leila." the same boy said. "This, this one is special don't you know? He came out during the day. Only really strong vampires do that. Why not play with him a bit. August, Sam what do you think?" he asked them but it was slightly obvious that they had no choice. He was the leader of their little group and the twin boys standing in the back nodded. "See, they don't have a problem."

"Yes, but what if we are found out?" The girl asked. "The new Alpha is strict; we can't simply do whatever we want especially now that the plans are starting to…"

"Shut up Leila!" the two twins said and looked at her annoyed. "Will you let him hear everything our pack is planning to do?" they told her and she shook her head.

Kai could feel John shaking. The poor human had no idea and was probably slowly putting the pieces together. Kai couldn't let him stay here, he would die if those wolves decided to play with him.

"How about you let the human go? It's me that you want." Kai interrupted their conversation and the boy named Brandon smiled.

"So he can go back and bring help?"

"Listen kid, when this drug wears off you will probably regret this so why don't you let me go and I won't kill you." Kai told him. The wolf laughed, not taking him seriously. Well, he wouldn't take himself seriously in this situation either but he had to say something. It was Leila, the girl who seemed to be most scared. He looked at her, his eyes filled with hatred and she jumped back, a small scream leaving her lips.

"Brandon. I don't have a good feeling about this. You said it yourself that he is strong. Maybe we should…"

"The drug won't wear off. He will be dead by then. I will personally rip his heart out when I am done with him." he said. He took out a knife, it shone underneath the sunlight and Kai stared at it. He was really intending to torture him, he realized. He started to panic, not so much for himself but for John, he could hear him cry, trying to suppress any noise.

"You can't do things like these in front of a human. The rules. Do you think brats like you have the power to go against universal balance?" he asked them. His tone was serious, showing them that he was actually superior to them. He viewed them as children even though he had been captured by them.

"Who would know?"

"You are too insolent" Kai insulted him and laughed. The young wolf did not like that and he instantly paid for it. A punch landed right on his nose, the same way he had hit probably one of his friends. He heard the bones crack and felt the pain, a hiss escaping his lips while blood reached his chin.

"I wouldn't be so courageous if I were you. You are the prisoner here?" Brandon told him, his eyes seeming angry. He wished to see him, scared. That was something he wouldn't achieve. Kai had gone through a lot worse than that, being tortured by children was almost comedic.

"What's the difference, you're going to kill me anyways." Kai said with a smirk. He disliked royalty, he had ended up hating his own upbringing but times like this, his pride and his cockyness would simply surface, reminding him of his family and their way of always looking down on people. "Tick tock little wolf. The drug is slowly wearing off and my muscles are getting tense." he teased him.

"Shut up!" The blond shouted and punched him again. "I will not be scared of you. Our kind has been killing you like flies." he shouted and grabbed him from his hair. He brought him forward and slammed him on the table. It broke into many pieces, the bottles landing on the floor.He groaned, feeling his face get cut and hit. Brandon threw him to the side.

"Boss, why are you making him even more mad?" John screamed at him and Kai couldn't help but smile.

"This is nothing, barely child's play." he provoked him again. Brandon stood up. He grabbed one of the bottles and broke it on his head. Shards of glass getting stuck on his skin. It stinged and it hurt but he needed him to make more noise. He was sure someone would listen, someone would come and check up what was going on. This would be his chance, while they were trying to hide he would break the restraints and escape.

"You mean that we are weak?"

"You are a bright little one, aren't you?" Kai said. He couldn't open his eyes though. The blood from the wound on his head was not closing. A result of the drug and every part of his face was slowly being painted red.

"Guys, this asshole thinks we are weak. Just because he is a vampire!" Brandon told his little twin friends and finally they seemed to get fired up too. They approached him and they started kicking him. Kai screamed, not just because he wanted to make a ruckus but because he had been turned into a punching bag. He heard the blond one laugh and suddenly an anger began growing inside of him. The world had changed, his world had and he hadn't managed to catch up to it.

"Boss, please let go of him!" John screamed, terrified and the girl stunned by the whole situation rushed to one of the twins.

"Sam that's enough, you're making too much noise! Someone will hear." She scolded them but it was too late. A knock was heard immediately after on their door and all of them froze.Their heads turned towards the closed door and then at each other.

"Come on. Open it." Kai said with a cocky smile and Brandon swore.

"Leila, go see who it is. Lead them away, we need to get rid of them."

Leila walked hastily to the entrance, barely opening to see who was waiting outside.

"What are you doing in there?" A man's voice was heard and Kai's eyes widened. He could recognize it everywhere, unchanged in the flow of time. It was him, he was sure of it.

"Philip, we…" Leila said. "We were play fighting and broke a table." She exclaimed. We are cleaning it up right now." she said. Her friends had stopped hitting him, they were looking at her back, expectant of what was going to happen. Kai was anxious too, was he going to get in?

"Let me in, Leila, right this instant.." he told her and pushed the door open.
