"Melody.... Melody... Melody..." Roche repeats this as he sits in a chair in a locked office, his duel disk confiscated.
"So he won't say anything?" Pendragon asks Cyndy and Synch.
"No. All we get is 'Melody'," Synch says, looking at the notes before looking back up at Pendragon and Sagittarius.
"I'll look into it," Sagittarius says as he looks over his desk.
"Synch, can I talk to you, over in a private office?" Pendragon asks, looking rather concerned.
"Yeah, sure," Synch says, turning over to Cyndy, "hey, I'll be right back,"
She smiles and kisses him, "ok, I'll be in the loby,"
---------
"Synch..." Pendragon leans over the desk, frustrated, as Xavier stands next to him.
"Yeah I know. It's not fair to her... but... I do have feelings for Cyndy, even guessing what Fue is planning, I wanted to be with her," Synch says, agitated.
"Fue isn't going to stop till we're all together. They are targeting our closest friends... I'm sure of it. That's how he thinks," Xavier says with a shake of his head.
"Synch, she saved herself this time, but Fue is definitely going to come for her unless you agree to this. You know how big brother is..." Pendragon says rather uncharacteristically sad.
-----------
"Dammit Roche!" Fue slams his fist on the table, angry at his subordinates failure. "He failed to kill her.... how could I think that performer could ever accomplish anything... I should have had that man kill his wife instead of him leaving her alive..."
Fue hears a knock on his door, collecting himself before answering, to maintain in a good light for the rest, he opens the door.
"What news do you have?"
"Pendragon and Xavier agree to meet on the date, but we are still waiting on Synch's answer," a young woman says, reading off a list.
"Good... I'm Sure Pendragon will convince my little brother to come... if he wont, my plan won't work," Fue laughs a venomous laugh as he sighs.
"Very well sir, I'll tell Pendragon that you need Synch's answer by the afternoon," the woman says.
"Thank you, and send in the First Sargent will you?" Fue asks, looking through the Summon Forward group roster.
"Yes sir, understood," she turns around and all that is heard is the clicking of her high heels in the hall.
"I want them angry before I meet with them... I want their anger to reach perfect levels... and then, I will rule,"
----------------
"Fine, I'll think about it. No guarantee. I don't like the idea of a meeting with Fue," Synch says, his hand to his chin.
"Ok, just come up with the answer soon," Pendragon says with a slight smile, "trust me, nobody here likes the idea either.
"Id hope so... he's not exactly trustworthy..." Synch says, turning around to walk out. Sure that this meeting was gonna mean something bad...
