Day 18

I went back up to the room for some food

And I saw Takashi, Sato, Leeha, and Riggs staring at the TV. “Great job Kay! Look at that,” Riggs said sarcastically. “We are everywhere. Are you happy now?” She looked over at me and realized I wasn’t Kay. “She does everything for a reason, so obviously she wanted us to be seen,” I defended her. “Yea Riggs, relax. She knows what she’s doing,” Tak said. Kay walked through the door and stopped in the kitchen. “I give it a day,” she said. “A day for what? Till were ambushed? Great!” Riggs said. All Kay had to say to her was, “Mhm…”

     In the middle of the night, when everyone was sleeping, I heard footsteps. So of course, like always, I woke up and what a surprise- it was Kay. She went straight to the balcony and I thought nothing of it because she always goes there when she can’t sleep. But this time, out of the corner of my eye, I saw her jump over the railing down to the first floor. I went over quietly and slid open the doors to see what she was doing. The girl on the board was at the seawall talking to Kay. Then I stepped back so she wouldn’t see me, and bumped into Riggs. She gave me a dirty look, and then leaned against the wall to watch with me. “What’s she doing?” she asked me. “I don’t know.” We couldn’t even hear them whisper. The girl looked up at the balcony and we both ducked so she wouldn’t see us; but we could still see them. Kay got back up from lying on the seawall and we saw her nod her head. The girl got on her board and paddled away. Kay watched her swim away until she was far enough out of sight. “I’ll give you two minutes to get back to bed,” she said, knowing we were watching her. “God dam it. All the fucking time she does that. I don’t know how she does it,” whispered Riggs. 

Next day we decided to go to the beach

Boy, was that a bad idea. She tried to pick the most secluded area on the beach, but common let’s get real, we were in Miami. “Aw, are we feeling a little anti-social today?” Riggs said to Kay. “Shut up.” We ended up picking a regular spot because there were people everywhere. She was extra calm today, something she does when she’s waiting for something. She did give it a day, whatever it was. “Hey! Who wants yum yums!?” Ringo screamed. He always gets excited when it comes to food. “Me and the twins are going to get food. Anyone want?” “Uh I’ll come. I want a burger,” Leeha said. “I’m going to get a towel at the gift shop. I forgot to bring one,” Riggs said. “Common kiddo,” Ringo directed at me. “She’s passed out. She ain’t budging for a while,” meaning Kay. “Eh, alright. Where’s Sato?” “Potty.” So we left Kay sleeping on the beach.

     Another bad idea. We came back to a huge crowd of people. “What’s going on?” Takashi asked someone. “Someone has some kid at gunpoint over there.” I gasped and whispered, “Uh oh…” Takashi over heard me though and shot me a worried look. Then he pushed through the crowd and we all followed. We got to the front and stopped dead in our tracks. Kayvroni was on her knees with her hands in the air. She looked up, saw us, and then smiled. Three people were dressed in some sort of high tech wet suits and another was dressed in a black suit. The one who was pointing a gun at her head was wearing a different colored wet suit then all of them. He bent down next to her ear and whispered something. Kay looked up and him and turned straight again. She shook her head vigorously like a little kid with a huge smile on her face. Sato pushed up front but Ringo put his hand in front of him to block him from going any further. “No. Let her do this. She knows what she’s doing. Isn’t that right Al?” I looked at Ringo then Sato and shook my head, but still secretly worried.

“Give me the girl!” He pointed the gun at the crowd,

then made its way towards us. “What girl?” Sato asked. He was about to reason with them, but then Kay shook her head no. He stopped what he was going to say and just stood there. “What girl is he talking about Kayvroni!?” Sato yelled. She slowly got up from her knees to her feet and turned around so that the gun was pointing at her head. “If you’re going to shoot me, have fun finding her.” Her arms still out in the air, she waited for a response. I got a message from Bentley on my phone. The first time that’s ever happened, saying, “assistance needed back at the condo.” I showed Sato and everyone else to see what we should do. I looked at Kay and she slowly put one hand down behind her back. She signed a G and an O. She knew Bentley sent the message and she needed us to go help him out. So we turned around and went back to the condo. I looked back at her and it looked like she was stalling them until we got back to the condo. When we got back to the cars, we heard a gunshot. “Shit…” I heard Leeha say under her breath. We peeled out of the parking garage and right when Takashi put the car in drive, we saw Kayvroni run super fast trying to get away from the car and guys chasing her. She hopped the on the other cars driving on the road and went the opposite way of us. “She’s stalling them! Go go go!” Leeha said. “Dam she runs fast,” Takuya said.
