Cold paths (not me)

02 - seeing you again

TW: kidnapping / Kidnapping mentioned
(Kan's POV)

Kan had one mission and that was to be good at a lot of stuff so he could easily take down Tawi, turns out he wasn't the only one

I was just practicing his punches at my usual place, outside, I would have said it was in the middle of nowhere but it's just that people are never here and not many houses either,

"Your fighting is good," a voice behind me said, I turned around only to be faced with a guy around my height maybe a bit taller, dark hair with some silver on top, he looked familiar but I couldn't remember how or why he looks familiar

"Do you need something?" I said in a cold voice, the guy looked like he was in some kind of gang, maybe he came to cause trouble
"Not that I know of"
"Well then goodbye," I said before going back to training

"You seem lonely, wanna hang out?" the guy asked
"Why would I wanna hang out with a stranger" I return and he smiled "we aren't strangers if I tell you my name right?"
"I guess"

"I'm gram," he says
"Ok" I turn back to him and give him a serious look
"We aren't strangers now are we?"
"Shut up"
He made a joking shocked face
"You are just like my friend, so cold and serious" his friend? Well now I can't say I'm not curious
"If we hang out you'd meet him," the so-called gram said, maybe hanging out would be nice
"Fine" I blurt out, goodness am I really doing this
"I'm guessing you don't have a ride since I didn't see one anywhere"
"Bingo, glad you aren't stupid"

"You can ride with me, I have a motorbike," he told me "Unless you are scared of course" I glare at him "I'm not scared, just let me pack my stuff," I told him
"You better not murder me, or else I'll haunt you" I added, he laughed a bit
"I won't I swear"

I took my stuff and we went to his bike "eh I expected an old and rusty bike" I said jokingly and he laughed before giving me a helmet
"Oh so you're a gentleman too, nice"
"Of course I am" he smiled
He wasn't bad at riding his motorbike I have to say

Once we got to where ever he is taking me, there was a big garage
He truly must be in a gang or something
I followed behind and once he opened the door I saw, him
My eyes widened thankfully he didn't see me I quickly stepped a bit away
And was outside where he couldn't see me

"Are you okay?" He questioned, waiting up to me and putting a hand on my shoulder
I pushed his hand off "yeah I'm fine" I said it sounded rude and serious but I didn't care,
"Alright let's go in then" he put his hand around my shoulder and we walked inside

Black spotted me, his eyes widened a bit and I looked away to the side
"Gram who is that and why are they here?" A different person asked, I looked to where the voice was, the guy was somewhat taller than me, and he had tattoos on his arm, birds, dark hair it was short but kinda long. Medium if people even say that

Black looked the same tho, his hair grew a bit and that's all, nothing new
"I found his training and he looked pretty good at fighting so I took him with me, honestly he reminded me of black a bit"
I turn to gram and glared at him
"Shut up" he smiled at me nervously
"I am nothing like him" I mumbled And rolled my eyes
"You haven't even met him tho" I guess gram heard me as he is super close to me
I looked back at gram
"Do you know everything about me or smt?" I asked jokingly and he just laughed

Black stood up and came up to me "I'm taking him for a few seconds" he said before taking my arm and dragging me outside, he closed the door and looked at me
"Since when do you go with strangers?" He asked, putting a hand on my shoulder
"Since when do you care" the words left my mouth in a cold tone, he didn't need to care after all it was him who never had time, gram finding me was the only way to have someone in my life again, everyone I had either left or stopped talking to me, black being one of them

He glared at me "I never said I cared" I rolled my eyes "then leave me alone" I slapped his hand off of my shoulder and was about to go back inside to gram and tell him I'm leaving but a hand took a hold of my wrist
"Why did you stop calling and texting me" black questioned, seems like he does care
"It didn't matter, did it? You ever called or texted me anyway" he let go of my wrist and I went to gram

"Ah, there you are finally, what took so long?" Gram smiled at me and motioned for me to come over and so I did
"Nothing" I replied

"You never told me your name, so what should I call you," gram said
I thought about it, should I say my real name? Black will know it's fake and could tell them, but it doesn't matter it's better for my safety
A hand waved Infront of my face "helloooo" I quickly snapped back to reality
"Just call me Kilen" I looked at black and he was just staring at me confused
"Kilen" black said "interesting name"
"I guess" I replied glaring at him
He looked at me with those "I'm about to expose you" eyes
"Black, what a dark name," I said before he could speak

He glared at me, while the taller guy and gram laughed
"Dad jokes as a first impression," a different voice said, the person was coming down some ladders, and his hair was dark, I guess everyone is like that except gram, he is taller than me, dammit why is everyone so much taller

"Oh I'm yok by the way," the guy with the bird tattoo said "and I'm sean," the other one said, I bowed down trying to be respectful
"Hey you didn't bow to me when we met" gram whined
"We met basically in the middle of nowhere, You seemed like you were about to murder me"
"You got a point there" he puts his hand on my shoulder "I promise I won't murder you"

Black took a drink and walked out without saying a word, was he really mad at me for not talking to him for 2 weeks? I mean he went a month without talking to me once, what's the problem now

That boy confuses me
"Kilen, you spaced out again," gram told me "sorry" I replied
"If you need someone to talk to we are always here" he gives me a small smile and I just look away "okay" I mumbled
"Gram can you take me home" I look back at him and he nods
"Sure just tell me the address" "ok"
We both walk outside, black was there smoking
I followed gram to where his motorbike last was and took the helmet
I hopped on and took a quick look at black, he was staring at us
His expression was hard to tell, like always

(after gram took kan to his apartment)

I stood in front of my apartment building while gram was still on his motorbike
I bowed to him "thanks" and waved him goodbye before going inside
But suddenly everything turned black...

I opened my eyes and all I saw was a dark room, my mouth was covered I couldn't speak, my hands tied behind me and my legs tied together, I was sitting on a chair
It was uncomfortable but I didn't try to move, I didn't cry either, didn't even try to scream,
If being kidnapped gets me out of this hell then I won't fight

?.!?! A thud, must be outside the room or maybe I'm hearing stuff

To be continued. . .
