"What! How did you know I was coming?!" Gui says fustrated.
Prince He turns around, laughing.
"I can hear your shoes tapping on the ground from miles away".

"I'm here to tell you, I'm looking into my mother's disappearance and I'm heading to Red Tree Village to look for a clue as to where she went" Gui says to He.
"Okay.. When do we leave?!" He says with a sure voice.
Gui takes his feet off the desk and stands up, looking at He.
"We?!.." Gui says confused.
Prince He nods, "Yes! We! I'm not letting you do this alone, If you're going to defy father might as well make it two of his sons".
Gui laughs and starts to walk out of the room, then he stops.
"We leave at Dawn" he says laughing.
"I'll pack snacks!" Prince He yells as Gui leaves the room.
