We finally arrive and Greece and I look outside of my window to see the city of Athens. I have never stopped being amazed at its beauty. From the ruins of ancient temples or palaces to the trees and the green pasture. Home sweet home. I look at Namia and tell her quietly
"Come dear, look at Greece with me"
She puts her head on my shoulder and says
"It's beautiful"
I smile and say
"Yes it is."
I wrap my arms around her and say
"While we are here, I will show you the whole of Greece. From the best places to the best food, you will experience it all!"
She smiles and giggles as I tickle her. I look at Xerxes who is also showing Greece to his new wife. They didn't have to tell us they are together, it's obvious.
"Ήταν τόσο πολύς καιρός από τότε που ήμασταν σπίτι (it's been such a long time since we have been home)"
He looks at me and says
"ναι, δεν έχει αλλάξει (yes it has, it hasn't changed)"
I smirk and say
"βασίζεστε στην εμφάνιση της νέας γυναίκας σας στην πόλη; (do you count on showing your new wife the city?)"
He laughs and says
"That obvious?"
I smirk and say
"Sure is"
He says
"μόνο αν βασίζεσαι στην εμφάνιση της Ελλάδας για να είσαι σύζυγος (only if you count on showing Greece to your to be wife as well)"
I deeply blush as he burst out laughing turning a few heads. However that does not stop him from laughing to his hearts fill. We finally land in Greece's airport and we hear on the microphone
"LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, WE HAVE OFFICIALLY ARRIVED IN ATHENS, GREECE. WE WISH YOU A SAFE STAY AND THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING THIS AIRLINE"
Once she finishes everyone starts to take their luggage's above the seats. We all leave the airplane and group up right in front of the exit, but leave enough space for people to walk through
"Ok so apparently the driver is already outside"
I state while looking at Xerxes. He nods and says
"Good, let's leave before anything bad can happen"
We all nod and walk out of the airport to see a man wearing a driver uniform twirling his driver hat in his hands until he sees us and says
"Hello, come quickly, we must be quick and discreet"
We obey and get in the car, we tuck in our seatbelts and the driver starts driving away. He says while looking straight at the road
"Hello to you all, I am called Adolf, I have been sent by Ms. Ti. You are now being looked all over the world so I have been told to warn you to be careful with the steps you take"
Xerxes says
"Believe us, we will be. We learned that the hard way"
The driver nods and after a while we arrive to this tall skyline. I watch the driver park and can't help but feel excited to see my old friend, it has been years! I remember when we were young and used to go to school together. Oh how young we were! I look at Namia in the corner of my eyes who seems to be quite sad and I hold her hands reassuringly. She smiles at me as we get out of the car and take our luggage. We come outside to great her. Chaoli smiles at me and walks up to me with her arms wide open before embracing me in a hug. I laugh and hug her back as I say
"Long time no see! My friend!"
She smiles and says
"It's so good to see you"

Chaoli Ti played by her

She looks at Xerxes, Hiraeth, Namia and the couple Miza and Noal while saying"You are all welcome

"You are all welcome. Please come in"
The smile gratefully before coming inside, the building looks like a regular business building with a secretary at the counter and workers runnigg by all over the place. She says
"You will be hidden, in plain sight."
She walks to the elevator and it opens once she presses the button. We enter the elevator and I look to the side to see her take out a key and put it in the key lock right beneath the elevator floor buttons. Once she turns the key to the left, a floor appears on the elevator floor buttons. Floor Z. She presses it and the elevator starts to move down, she says
"You will be staying in my operation room. Don't worry though, it's basically like a penthouse with a bunch of gadgets in the living room"
I nod and she looks at me with a smile on her face. The elevator finally opens to reveal a sort of underground penthouse with a bunch of luxury things in it. We walk out and look around all the gadgets in wonder. I hold Namia's waist and she smiles and says
"It's wonderful. The advancement of those gadgets!"
I smile and say
"It truly is"
She blushes and Chaoli says
"Alright I'll leave you all to it"
I nod and smile at her thankfully as she smiles back at me.
