Tales of Pangea: Silver & Gold

Chapter 6

In the main hall of the Golden Phoenix Flock's base, Kori was standing over a frozen Jinkai, where only his head was left in the open. Sitting on their knees next to him was Shirokane and Akahito, "So... Do you two want to explain why Jinkai acted out and attacked one of the students in Zubeth?" Kori asked calmly.

Akahito quickly bowed before he answered, "I wasn't watching him properly, ma'am!" Akahito sweated nervously as he kept his head lowered.

Jinkai said something but his breath was shivering and faint. "Quiet, you've caused enough problems!" Akahito hissed.

Kori sighed, "Jinkai, you'll be tied to the post until the game passes. You are to not be given food or water," Kori then stood up to walk over to Jinkai. "Did you really think I would applaud you for not only attacking an innocent student, but also putting forward my plan to restore the economy of Eleanoria?"

Kori snapped her fingers and Arashi walked up with a document, showing a projected graph for the sales of the game. "I had Meiji make this, this game will allow small struggling businesses to sell and make profit they've been struggling to do. All thanks to one person, Kai."

The ice around Jinkai melts as he's grabbed by Arashi. "By allowing that wolf to come here, two things will happen. One, by allowing a Silver Wolf, one of the Flock's hated, to come into Eleanoria for a simple game, trade firms will see that we're not so violent as people believe and start back up trade." Kori and Arashi began walking, with Jinkai being dragged along, Akahito and Shirokane following behind them. "Two, from what I know about Kai from what Gin has blathered on about, Kai is a big spender, especially when traveling. money is no issue for him as he has literal millions saved up due to fights, allowances, and selling caught Ferals. By letting him come here, he'll support the stores failing to make ends meet and then some. So if he doesn't show up to the game due to your actions..." Kori pulled Jinkai's head up to make him look her in the face as Arashi tied his arms to a post. "I will skin you alive and make a bag out of you. Understand?"

"So the plan is to get him here, he'll spend big, and show that we welcome canines. Once again Lady Kori, you're a great mind and leader." Akahito said as he bowed his head.

"Yes, thank you for breaking the record, Akahito." A voice spoke up from where Kuroimizu sat.

"That was Dooku!" The tortoise said defensively.

Kori then walked by Kuroimizu and spoke, "Kuroimizu, Dooku, ensure that no one under any circumstance gives Jinkai any food or water until the game."

"Yes ma'am, I will make sure of it. Dooku already poisoned him to keep him from moving." Kuroimizu spoke with Jinkai falling over, a double piercing bite mark on his leg was shown.

"Excellent work Dooku," Kori nodded as Shirokane walked up to her, "Yes?"

Shirokane lowered his head and spoke, "I'd like to discuss the plan to observe Kai's actions"

"What?"

"The one we talked about over the phone, I called your personal line."

"You didn't call my phone. If you did, Arashi would've picked up first. I have no idea how to use a cellphone." Kori admitted with 0 shame.

Everyone fell silent before suddenly someone came in, a Long-Eared Owl Pangean in a business suit holding a box. "Oh, sorry if I interrupted anything important. I just needed to drop off this last box, on and Mother-in-law--"

"Meiji, we agreed you'd never call me that." Kori answered with venom.

"S-sorry ma'am, anyway, Niji wanted me to return your phone. She had it since yesterday, I don't know why she had it." With those words, everyone was silent. Shirokane left the room then a powerful scream could be heard for a second before he returned. "Are you alright Mister Shirokane?"
