Chapter 2: Rap Battles
Kai is sitting in blood as the cops show up.
Cop: Did the kid do this?
Detective: No, these guys have bullet wounds, and there is no gun around. We have already checked the area. Plus they have been dead since about 12 and the kid was seen getting out of school at 3.
Cop: Well than poor kid. He had to see his parents like this.
Detective: I know. I am going to have to ask him questions too.
The detective walks outside, and over to the ambulance where Kai is sitting drinking water.
Detective: Hey kid.
Kai drinks a sip of water, and the detective sits next to him.
Detective: So Kai is it?
Kai drinks another sip of water.
Detective: Kai, you know my parents died when I was young too?
Kai: Really?
Detective: Yeah, and your probably worried that things might start changing and they will, but things are going to change for the better. You lived in a bad house. We are going to get you in a home. Where you can be adopted by new parents. Thats what happened to me, and because of that I decided to become a cop. So I could help out kids like you and me.
Kai: Your really cool Mr…
Detective Steel: My name's Detective Connor Steel, but you can call me whatever you like.
Kai: Mr.Steel, will I be adopted?
Detective steel: Don't think about that right now. We need your help to find your parents killer. Do you have any idea who it could be?
Kai: Well, there was this worker who always fought with my mom. He also worked there every day. So I don't know why he wouldn't be dead.
Detective Steel: That's good information, kid. Do you know his name?
Kai: No, sorry.
Detective Steel: That's fine. You did good kid, thank you.
Detective steel gets up, and tips his hat to Kai before walking off. Later Detective steel comes back to then drive Kai down to the church.
Detective Steel: You probably think that you're not going to be going to regular school, but this church allows you to go to a regular school if you already were. So you will still be going to your old school. I'm not gonna lie to you. These people are really nice. You are lucky your school bus was willing to drive from Hell's Kitchen to Harlem.
The Detective walks the kid in.
Priest: Ah, this is Kai. Hello Kai.
Priest: He will be in the best care of the nuns.
Detective Steel: I bet he will. Kai, I come here every Sunday so I will be checking on you, see ya.
Detective steel leaves.
Priest: Kai, I know you have been through a lot.
The priest tries to put his hand on Kai's shoulder, and Kai moves his shoulder back.
Priest: You don't have to feel weird. If you don't want me to touch you that's fine. Come follow me.
The priest leads him over to the seats. He tells Kai to sit down, and close his eyes. Then to put his hands together in the praying motion. Kai refuses to close his eyes, but eventually gives in.
Priest: Now tell god want you what, or even just talk to him. God is a great listener. He won't say anything back to you, but he is listening.
Kai(in head): God, if you're out there please bring my parents back. I have had to be poor, deal with my mother cheating, constant death threats from workers, and now my parent's death. Please make things get better.
Kai starts crying.
Priest: It's okay to cry. For things to get better your going to have to accept the pain.
Kai hugs the priest.
Priest: I think its time for you to go to bed. You have school in the morning.
The priest leads Kai to the bathroom where he takes a shower, and Kai goes to sleep. Kai is then woken up by a nun.
???: Kai, it's time to wake up.
Kai: What's your name.
???: You can call me Ms.Margaret.
Kai gets up out of bed, and Ms.Margaret lays clothes on the bed.
Ms.Margaret: Go change, and I will meet you in the main room.
Ms.Margaret leaves the room.
Kai: Clean clothes?
Kai puts on his clothes. Then he meets Ms.Margaret.
Kai: Hello.
Ms.Margaret: Great, you're ready. Follow me, Kai.
Ms.Margaret grabs Kai's hand, and leads him outside. They wait for the bus to come, and the bus picks him up. He gets driven to school. He then gets off the bus, and sees some kids outside before school starts.
Azrael: Alright its heads. You chose.
???: I'm going to destroy you in the first round
Azrael: Fine, but no promises.
The beat starts playing, and Kai walks over to see what's happening.
???: Fine, alright, alright okay,
White boy, you ain't got no skill.
If you went into the rap game you wouldn't even make one bill.
That's real.
You ain't got nothing against me.
You're held down by disadvantage while I'm free.
I don't know nothing 'bout you.
Your just act like your the smart blind jew.
Your only friend is the dirty kid.
It's like he has been sprayed by a squid.
I see you bumping into walls all the time.
Focus on walking before you try to start a rhyme.
You think you're on some Tupac shit.
Why don't you spend some time with granny and nit?
Cause you're not going to accomplish nothing.
The crowd probably thinks I'm bluffing.
But we all know after this you be running.
Crowd: OHHHHHHH!!!!
Azrael starts to look sad.
Kai: Az, you good?
Azrael: I don't think I can come back from that.
Kai: I thought you had practiced some rap.
Azrael: I have, but I'm not good.
Kai: Then I'll do it.
Azrael: You haven't even practiced, or even wrote down anything.
Kai: Well if you're not going in I might as well.
Azrael: Fine.
Kai: I'm going.
???: Well okay then. I guess I was right Azrael is running.
Crowd: *Laughs*
The beat starts again.
Kai: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I haven't even done this shit before.
And now it looks like I'm in the middle of a war.
Hey, Jax, there's four of your guys in here you trynna cheat.
Well you should repeat your verse then because no one was listening.
During your mumbling, I was envisioning.
I knew what I was going to do when I came out here.
I don't care about rap while you're trying to make a career.
I can already tell you ain't going nowhere.
You would need 30 people to help you write a good verse so let's all say a prayer.
Since your wasting your life trying to be the real slim shady.
N**ga you crazy.
You're full of ambition and stupidity.
It's stupendous you even made it this far.
You'll never be a superstar.
Crowd: OHHHH!
The crowds about even.
Jax: I guess we're going for round two, eh?
Kai: Aight!
The beat restarts
Jax: It seems like you used the ink I gave you.
I guess we have got an upcoming rapper here he's all-new!
Nah you just a wanna be Biggie.
You more like the Notorious P.I.G., piggy!
What, you think your no longer the dirty kid because you got clean clothes and a shower.
Yeah sure, next you're gonna be living in trump tower.
Not,
Your still the poor kid looking for food so he eats his snot.
Yeah, this superstar is going all-in.
I have support from my family. Where's your kin?
Oh shit, I'm at it again!
You looking upset now did I ruin your fun.
I got family, good friends, and money you got none.
Life is really tough huh.
This guy has had enough.
Now give up before we start betting for stuff.
You the big old softy that got beat by the ruff.
Crowd: RIDER!
Jax: Yeah, dis n**ga crazy for going against me.
The beat restarts.
Kai: How are you gonna make fun of me
I have to deal with death while you trying to figure out how to put a house in a tree
I have been through some real shit
And I can really spit
Whatta you got on me, some money
Well take a knee because to me you ain't got nothing to worry about
You think you're a hot rapper
Your just a used condom wrapper
Because your full of jizz that nobody wants
You know your bars suck so you have to write them in different fonts
You better protect your neck
You're the Brooklynn zoos escaped Shrek
Because your face is so green you look like you're gonna throw up.
Jax throws up on the ground.
Kai: I win by default!
Jax keeps throwing up. Kai brings him to the nurse while everyone goes to class.
Nurse: lay down on the bed.
Jax lays down.
Nurse: thank you for bringing Jax down here. Anyways I need to go get you a pass so just chill here. The other nurse is in the medical room if you need anything.
The nurse leaves.
Kai goes over to Jax.
Kai: whatsapp?
Jax: soon to be puke.
Kai: doesn't sound great.
Jax: Yeah, but anyway you won.
Kai: I don't take that as a win. We are gonna do this again some day, and next time I'm actually gonna win.
Jax: I'm sorry.
Kai: sorry?
Jax: The disses were kinda uncalled for, and I'm sorry I dissed your newly deceased family. My condolences, and let them Rest In Peace.
Kai: You know what Jax. You are not as bad of a guy as I originally thought. Maybe we can chill sometime.
They fist bump.
Kai: I would dap you up, but…
Jax: Yeah, I get it.
The nurse walks back in.
Nurse: Alright here's your pass, Kai. You can go back to class.
Kai: Thanks, nurse.
Kai goes through the rest of his day at school. Then at the end of the day when everyone is walking to their buses, Azrael meets up with Kai.
Azrael: Hey, Kai!
Kai: Whatsapp, Az?
Azrael: Thanks, you really saved my ass back there.
Kai: No problem! What are friends for?
Azrael: Thanks again man, see ya!
Kai: See ya!
They both go on separate busses, and the busses drive off. Kai eventually gets home.
Priest: Welcome home Kai.
Kai: Hello Priest.
Priest: Did you have a good day today?
Kai: Yeah, it was alright.
Priest: Alright well, don't forget to pray.
Kai: I won't.
The priest leaves.
Kai sits at the stands where you pray. He closes his eyes, and starts to pray.
Kai(in head): Today was a good day god. I needed a good day, thank you.
When Kai opens his eyes there is a blind kid around his age that is sitting right next to him.
???: Hey, you're pretty new aren't you?
Kai: Uh, yeah. I'm Kai.
???: I'm Matthew. You can call me Matt though.
Matt holds out his hand as he says his name, and Kai shakes his hand.
