I woke up and the video was already live, and everything was different. I was urgently awoken by a flustered Logan who told me Titanios would leave his room unless I went in, so of course, I went in. 
The notepad that was usually on the desk was on the floor in front of him, and he was drawing in it, his shoulders moving. 
He was only drawing one person, a guy named Lexon Canmore. 
He was older than me but not as old as Titanios, maybe around forty to fifty. You could tell by the way that Titanios had shaded him, he was supposed to be dark-skinned with white hair. His eyes were colored red with pen and an suit that made him look like a great leader. 
"Titanios." I say, tapping his shoulder. 
Titanios was muttering a phrase over and over. "It's him." 
"Who is he?" I ask, kneeling beside him. 
"He's the only one." He mutters, looking at me with wild eyes. 
"He's an Iltena." 
"A what?" I ask. 
"He's an Iltena, the Iltena." Titanios says.
I rub his back. "Explain." 
"He's the chosen one, an ancestor of the Dwellion." 
"What's the Dwellion?" I ask. 
"The first three Pangaeans, Ulialith, Evaleen, and Throrin. They were called the Dwellion, and they were made by the core, they each had a specific Oura konnes. One had flame, one had Earth, and the other had brain power."
"So like Annaliesee, Leeciy, and I?" I ask. 
"Sort of." He says. "They all created Pangaea, Ulialith, the Titan, who controlled rock, built the palace. Throrin, The Loki, made the flame of the core, and Evaleen, the Ananke, made the commandments, and together they created the Pangaeans. All the Pangaeans declared weak while in the womb would get a twin, and they would make eachother strong, but the strong didn't need a sibling, and they would be raised with utmost respect, so they could successfully nurse their Oura konnes. The strongest would take two of the Titan's traits, his marks, and his snow-white hair. Then there was one stonger than them all, called the Iltena, which compiled all of the Dwellion's traits, like Ulialith's white hair, Throrin's pitch-black skin, and Evaleen's red eyes and Marks Of Tizing, which are tiny gold rings around the biceps and fingers." Titanios explains. 
"So is there people with just Throrin's trait? Like there are with Ulialith's?" I ask. 
"The Dwellions praised strength, so they only made one level that matched Ulialith's, since he was the strongest." 
"How do you know all this?" I ask. 
He looks at me confused. "Hadn't you ever read the Tageon?" 
I shake my head. "What is that?" 
Titanios crawls over to the bedside table, taking the Bible out of it, throwing it at me. 
I duck and it hits the baby-puke green wall. 
"It's the Pangaean Bible!" He yells. 
"Oh." I say softly. 
He stands up, grabbing a handful of the drawings, shoving them in his coat pocket haphazardly. "Alright, did that video go live?" He asks. 
I nod, watching him closely. 
"Okay, then maybe we should get out of this town." He says.

Leeciy was driving, as per usual. September was talking quietly to Cirus, who was convinced that the Police were chasing us.
I look in the mirror, just to check no-one's on our tail. 
All that was there was another car, who didn't look too suspicious. 
"We're safe Cir." I say, looking back at her. "No one's back there." 
She looks up at me. "Are you sure?" 
I nod. "We're okay." 
September smiles down at her. "It's okay." 
She nods. "Okay." 
I turn back to Leeciy, who looked hideously tired.
"Hey." I say, grabbing his bicep. "How late did you stay up?" 
"I stayed up until we uploaded it, then I took a nap." He answers. 
I furrow my brows. "I can drive if you want to sleep on the way." 
"It's fine." He says, looking over at me with hooded eyes, before looking back at the road and swerving back into his lane. 
Cirus yelps. 
"Pull over." I say. "Let me drive." 
He blinks then turns on his blinker, swerving into the shoulder. 
I open the car door before walking out, we meet at the middle of the car, and he looks down at me with half-closed eyes. 
He smiles down at me. "Thanks." 
I nod. "Anytime."

We stop in a bigger city because it was the only place we could get to before it got dark.
The motel we stopped at gave us all the vacant rooms they could, because we were such a large group, people at to quadruple up, instead of double up. 
I was roomed with Leeciy, Cirus, and September, but right now, Leeciy decided that he wanted to go on a walk, and I went with him. 
We walk into a Japanese store, which was full of people that didn't seem to be fluent in English, so they didn't know who I was. 
We were hanging out in the back corner, wrapped up in each other. 
His hand was cradling my head, and he was smiling fondly down at me. 
I stand on my tiptoes and kiss his nose, which makes his cheeks heat up, which in turn makes them a bruise-colored purple. 
He leans down and places a proper kiss on my lips, before pulling away. A sound somewhere makes Leeciy turn in a rush, rushing to the kitten shaped TV on the counter, which was just switched on. 
I was on the screen adjusting the camera, then I step back and give my speech before I raise a rock and throw it at the camera, where it breaks and falls to the floor, which it didn't, so this was where Leeciy started editing. 
The broken glass screen changes into a black before it changes into a purple. 
Words leak on in white. Join us and help us take down the hierarchy. Then below that was a drawing of me, half of me splattered with red blood and the other splattered with purple, and in the center was a circle with two crossing lines through it. 
The screen flashes like it's glitching, then it all goes black.
