After making the long walk up the mountains of Trench, the group arrived back at camp.

As Olene, Jenna, and Linh, were coming out with a basket of clothes in their hands, they saw the three men walking towards them.

Jenna dropped everything and ran to them; her arms open wide.

"Tyler! Josh!"

Tyler was released with Josh's embrace and ran into Jenna's arms.

"Jenna, I'm so happy to see you again!"

Kai and Linh locked in embrace, while Ari and Olene shared a kiss.

Instantly, the girl started looking over the child's body.

"Are you okay? Are you hurt?"

"He's fine." Josh said. "I shielded him."

Jenna began to panic.

"Shielded him from what?"

"Don't worry about me." Tyler said. "I'm alright."

His innocent words made Jenna smile. It made her relieved to know he was safe.

She kissed him on the cheek, then hugged him once more. As she did, she looked up to Josh.

"What happened out there?"

"We were attacked." Kai said.

"Attacked??" Linh cried. "By who?!"

Kai calmed her down.

"Relax, darling." He said.

"It was Dema." Josh said. "It was someone from there who ambushed us."

He looked up to everyone around them. A few Banditos came and listened in.

"Dema intended to kill us and take Tyler, but we escaped."

"What are you gonna do now?" Olene asked; clinging on to Ari.

"I have my suspicions on who it was that tried to kill us." Josh said. "Until we find out, be on guard."

The group agreed, then went on their way.

Josh looked back to Jenna, who was still holding the flower boy.

"Take Tyler back to our tent. I'll be with him in a minute."

Jenna nodded, and took the child away.

When he was alone, Josh was now in a frenzy. He needed to find out who it was that tried to kill them and take his beloved flower.

And like he suspected, he already knew who could he responsible.

After grabbing Kai, and a few Bandito men, Josh went down to the brothel, where he met with the two guards that he saw that last time he was there.

When the guards saw him, they were met with his livid eyes.

"My lord." The first guard said.

"What can we do for you?" The second guard added.

Josh's eyes glowed with anger and rage.

"Take me to Ender Mastel."

Without hesitation, the guards escorted Josh and his men into the brothel.

As they walked in, they found Ender on the sofa. He was naked from the waist down, and had a woman in between his legs.

He looked up to them, and smiled. His front teeth were silver, and he had a cigarette in between them.
