Clay's P.O.V
The house is quiet with hardly any sign of life. I walk slowly up the stairs towards
Kyle's room, opening the door to just a crack. Kyle lay fast asleep in his bed
with one leg hanging off the side. I ease my self in with out a sound and try to
properly position his leg back on the bed which causes him to stir a bit. After he
settles back down, I make my way to Nyla's bedroom and open her door. The shower is
running, steam forcing from under the bathroom door. Nyla sings or hums when ever she
showers and right now she is killing 'Let me love you by Mario'
I search around the room for Nyla's phone. Of course it's on the dresser, doh...such a
common place. Taking the phone off the dresser I send through a text.
Texting...
Nyla: Can we meet tonight? I need to talk to you about something really important.
Unknown: It's a bit late. can't it wait until tomorrow?
Nyla: it must be tonight, I'll meet you at Pops cafe' in 45 minutes.
Unknown: Alright.

Placing the phone back on the dresser, I slip out of the house again being
sure to lock the door be hind me.
40 minutes later...
Standing in the shadows out side the front entrance of Pops Cafe', I cock my gun
and secure it in the back of my waist belt throwing my shirt and jacket over it.
Keeping a watchful eye for the arrival of my target. A black hummer pulls up and
out jump my target walking into the cafe'. I allow a minute or two for my target
to settle in, then I walk in after. The person's back is facing the door. I walk
up and round the table. I then take the seat that will place us face to face.
" Good to see you Judge Josy." Leaning forward with a fake smile.
" Miss Jenner?" The Judge furrow her brow obviously surprise by my presence "I am suppose to meet with Nyla. Is every thing ok with her?"
I can see the worry in her eyes.
"She's fine." I assure her.
" She text me asking me to meet her here, she did not seem fine to me." She continue sounding rather concern.
" A text you wid her phone" I clarify, looking at her side ways." There is something we need to discuss."
"What Can be so important Miss Jenner, that you had to drag me out of bed at this hour with such trickery?"
The Judge queries with a hint of annoyance.
"Well you can tell me, how important is de Ark to u Judge?" Shock slap her hard across her face but she tries to hide it.
"W-what?" She stutter trying to act like she has no idea what I am talking about. " What are you talking about?"
"Before you further insult my intelligence, you should be aware dat a already know your position in de Ark madam head level 3." A breath of awareness escapes her lips as she scans the room before her eyes falls back on me.
