Red Vessel

Chapter 13: The Trackers

The Spectator's PoV
For the past 504 years, we were not able to find Arya, there was no Red Vessel...well... not that didn't exist, but was taken to the future, and we had to catch up to her as time passed. The world has been unbalanced since the vessel's absence, anything could had happened... well, things did happen... Kram family is no longer the Crown, now if they want to fix their own mess it will be very difficult because their actions are very limited. The current "Royals" have misrepresented human kind history and completely eliminated the Krams from every record, and of course... that... they made of us, a religion, and named it "Order of Redemption" ... hilarious... There was a war, and the territory was divided in two: Kramian the main land, and the Independent Reign, created by The Resistance, which was part of the first mentioned. There is also the Krasnaya... they are killing girls around 15 and 16 years old... without counting of course all the criminals, delinquents, and normal serial killers around, but this is normal statistics. And on top of everything... Kruger, we let him live in pain, but now, we think it was the greatest mistake we have ever made, because maybe, and this is just a thought, he is the one behind this sect. All of this, just because Ivan didn't have guts to deal with is brother... and here we are, in our full-time job, watching the world, with a blind Red Vessel!

As June, Kris, and Iris are on the highway, we noticed some movements in the city, besides the toxic, creepy, little ex-girlfriend stalking behind a wall of course. Apparently, Reissenberg is a very powerful man, with many contacts and blackmailed people that do the dirty job for him. Those supposed trackers he asked Fredrick to call, are at the house where the party took place, and they are in companion of three police officers, and of course Fredrick himself... it is not a surprise that a man of his caliber has people inside the Royal Force that works for him. According to what we heard them talk during their car ride to that place, Fredrick didn't even had to call and arrange the investigation with their infiltrated men, because that same day they received a call from the parents of the girl that hosted the party, because whatever happened there, left a huge hole on the ground and half a wall broken, so everything came out like a ring on a finger.

- I guess those two weren't lying...-says Fredrick as he takes a look around the living room- this place is a mess. Guys, start searching around and see what you can find-The three police men begin their search, and also do the trackers. They look under the sofa and armchairs, kitchen, bedrooms... After half an hour investigating the whole house with any luck, they see something in the basement shining like a diamond.

-Hey Fred! - said one of the trackers- I think I found something here, it must have fallen from the hole in the living room floor - The man picks up what appears to be a small piece of broken stone- This is the stone, Fred! I can work with this, tell Iron to bring the dogs, we are going to find this girl right now.
Fredrick thanks the police man for their service as he gives them a brown paper bag, which content, we assume is money. Iron arrives with the dogs to track the essence from the stone and find Arya.

-Tucker, gimme the stone-says Iron to his partner.

-Here you go- They put the stone right in the dogs' noses for them to smell the essence and find its source. These animals are amazing, they are huge skinny black hair dogs with three tails, and their noses have these large and shiny sensory tentacles that allow them to find the thread of essence.

- Hey! What's going on with your dogs!? What are they doing!?-says Fredrick, because to his surprise, after these beautiful creatures smelled the stone, they started walking around searching... but now they just go around in circles, barking like crazy, only to sit down and make sad noises.

- This is crazy... the dogs... they say... they say this essence is everywhere, even in us, they can't find a source if the source is everywhere.
