Enduring The Darkness

Chapter 18: Meeting Begins

  Anna was standing in front of the door she said ''come on hurry up we got a meeting soon and we need to get ready for it'' I sigh and walked out of my room. I followed her to room 1 it was James' room. James was sitting on a table with the same book I saw before. James says the second we entered the room ''It is time to plan things out now''. His room was bigger than the rest of the rooms it seems. I saw Stone, Miyamoto, Gabriel, Stone and Zyair in the room as well.  James says '' You are all captains that are loyal to me well except for Michael'' he giggles and continues '' I have faith in you to make my dream true, today we will have a meeting with the high ranks commanders some of you already met them. We need to convince them to send some troops along with one vice commander. '' Zyair says '' We don't need a vice commander's help James. Why you asked for one of them?'' Miyamoto speaks ''We have some eyes on us Zyair, it is not that James doesn't have faith in us but some high ranks think we might starts a rebel and take control over the region. A trusted vice commander in their eyes will help them keep eyes on us and make them less worried and more supportive.'' Zyair sigh. James says '' As Miyamoto already said, we need help Zyair but with or without their help we will have to do it''. 

  James gets up brings a scroll from his closet, opens it and places it on the table. Then he pointed his finger at a mark and he asks as he looks at me ''Micheal you know what is this?'' I nodded my head with no. He smiles slightly '' this is the map of the current world we live in the whole world changed and this is where our first gate is, our scots confirmed it''  .''Is that what Maverick was doing'' Stone asked, James replied '' Yes, he confirmed a strange-looking creature compared to the rest of the demons ''.  Anna interrupts ''And how we will convince them? It is not like we will say hey we will try to close a gate and they will say ok.''. James replies ''This is will be the toughest thing to do I will have to convince them they already know about your abilities, what's left is to show them the benefits of helping us but if they pointed out the cons of it then we simply defend our goals. I hope korsal himself will stand with us.''. Miyamoto says '' It is time to go for the meeting'' Zyair sigh '' I wish I could kill borchav that scum'' James said with anger in his voice '' Don't even joke about this that could get us killed you know very well how dirty he is.''. He sigh again and says ''Fine but he better not speak too much'' Miyamoto says ''Zyair don't do anything reckless or else don't attend at all''. 

  We went to the same huge building that was guarded they took Miyamoto's sword, Zyair's scythe, Anna's knives then they allowed us to pass. We went to the third floor they were more guards on the 1st and 2nd floor. The 3rd-floor was similar to the 2nd floor it had some soldiers but it some guys who had clothes similar to korsal but they had a 1 star on their shoulders while korsal had 3. I thought to myself they must be the vice commanders. We walked through the hallway towards the door at the end of the hallway and James opened the door, Korsal was sitting on the head of the table and they were 5 men and 2 women sitting and they had the same clothes but with 2 stars. James sat on an empty seat that was at the end of the table exactly facing korsal we stand behind James as some men entered the room who had 1 star on their shoulder. The table had a map on it. Korsal holds his arms crossed fingers under his chin as he looks at James and says ''The meeting begins'' as the door closes.
