Hen Island,

Fort Tonyo

Nobu: (walks to the map in the middle of the room) Young-I mean Akira, what's the situation around the island?

Tanya: (walk to Nobu) I see you're new here. (hold out her hand) I'm Tanya. Nice to meet you.

Nobu: (shakes her hand) Nobu. Thanks for the welcome, Lady Tanya.

Akira: I'm sorry, Nobu. These are my Commanding Officers. Khan, James, Ida, and the lady that passed by pissed was Delphine.

Nobu: (shows respect) it's an honor to meet you all.

James: Now we got the formality over with Nobu. Why are you here?

Akira: This is still going on?

Nobu: I get it. Seeing the situation, you're in a tough spot.

Khan: Not to mention anything about knowing our formation. We even tried to hide that from the enemy.

Nobu: you think I'm working with Nagi or Sito-

James: (both Khan and James swiftly put their swords to Nobu's neck) That's the only logical explanation you know of our movement.

Nobu: the only logical solution to this-(takes out a paper) Read this.

Khan: (looks at the paper) this is the enemy troops' camps and their position.

James: That makes you more suspicious.

Nobu: Suspicious enough for me to willingly give you information without a fight?

Khan: Could still be a spy.

Akira: ENOUGH!!! (fire surrounded the room, knocking both Khan and James to the ground.) We know about the enemy now. Just accept that he's willing to help us. Nothing more.

Nobu: (helps James and Akira helps Khan) Akira, no need to discipline your men because they're worried about your safety. I envy guys like you.

Akira: I know, but this is too much.

Nobu: nothing is too much if the Dragon King is at risk. These men are going to help you claim your land back. Any possibility they see you in danger, they'll take any measure to see you safe.

James: Spoken like a true scholar.

Nobu: I learned a lot over my travels. But that can wait for another time.

Akira: Yes. We have a couple of hours to work out a good plan.

Hen Island,

Fort Tonyo

Nobu has come up with a plan that gets us off the island. Nagi, Sito, and some of the people that went independent. All three armies are at odds with each other about the land they divided. They made a code to see who could defeat me to claim my entire land. Nobu said that was their fall. "The Enemy is trying to rush your rear because the scouts know it's weak. Supporting the rear unit will make the fight even, but the battlefield will be too narrow for the enemy to move their massive troops to set up an ambush. Dividing the rear in three and spread them in two directions. Two armies opposite from the open field in hiding in the forest." Straight to the point. The more he sets plans and orders, the more hope keeps rising. My fear of loss has now turned into motivation for my people. Nobu and I will head out to Del now. Nobu thinks the attack will happen in a matter of minutes. We worked out a plan for the front lines. We need Del to help us with both battles at the same time. The quicker we help with the rear, the faster we can get to the front lines.
