"Ryan, oh how great it is to see you." The sarcasm dripped from each word the man spoke.

"Leave. You have no business here, anymore."

"I have every right to be here! I came to collect what's mine so how about a trade, this boy for what is truly mine since the beginning!" The man gave a feral grin knowing he struck a nerve.

Tensely Ryan replied "Give him here. He has nothing to do with this."

"From all the time you have known me you must know that I never leave a deal without a trade in-return."

"Then lets do a different deal shall we. A duel, you versus me. If you win you get to have it but if I win-"

"You? Beat me? Foolish you have become Ryan I-"

"But if I win you hand back Nico. Do we have a deal"

"I agree by your terms." Unknowing the man fell into Ryan's trap there was no escape to what was to happen next.

"Then ready your sword Kohen, it will be the last time you will wield it."

Kyle temperature rise to a peak his anger could be seen by anyone who dared look his way. Clenched fists he started thinking of ways on how it could have happen. All his loyalty went to Jake and his ideas for the future most of which were genuine great ideas on how to disable those people in office who do nothing for the people but Jake other ideas will some day have him killed if not by Kyle then by an assassin. He lifted his eyes from the floor and stared head on to the man in the screen.

"How did this happen." If by anyone else they would presume that Kyle was calm but Jake knew better, he knew what was to come after he was done talking.

"It-it came out of no where. I-I wasn't with the group who were obser-looking after Anna."

"If you consider your life any worth get me someone who was from the group,now!"

"S-s-sir a-all men and women there were killed by the blast instantly. But the video footage might be still intact I'll have go and-"

"Get me that footage."

"Yes, Commander." The scientist/officer saluted to Kyle then ran like the wind to the building hoping to anyone who would hear him that the footage was still there.

Jake swiped the screen off then quickly glanced to Kyle only to see him walking to door. He put her there in that building and he was responsible for the men and women appointed to watching Anna. All that work for what, Jake thought. He had the trackers find her and bring her to the base every single thing he did was to make sure the weapon was ready for rebooting. If I could have been faster she would be a fighting machine for our side, for the next battle waged. She would have been the extra boost for Kyle to stay. I have to find her before my enemies do or everything I worked for would go down the drain, Jake thought to himself before speaking to Kyle.

"Where are you going to go, Kyle? You just going to leave when the meeting with the consul is tomorrow?"

Kyle stopped right in front of the door his hands still clenched tight by his sides. Why didn't he leave already was a mystery him, he could leave any time he wanted and already be on his search for Anna. It was because Jake's words taunted him. He knew him too well to know that Kyle was a man of his word although it could be blessing it can also be the end of your time living.

"I'm going to find her" Simple but so complex Kyle knew finding Anna would be harder then finding a needle in a hay stack.

"You must know that could take months we don't even have the footage yet. There is too-" At this Kyle turned around and pointed his finger to Jake
