Chapter 3 Leandra's dream

Bruno gathered all the Erudito guards for a meeting, together with the core guards including Chou.

Bruno announced to them, "Gentlemen, we recieved a report outside. Bosco recieved a letter from Claude, that this night, he will come to steal his precious belongings."

"W-what? Who?"

"What? Claude?"

Noise among them break the silence in the room, many of the Eruditio's guards complained and some of them worried.

"Silence please!" Bruno shouted. "How can we succeed our operation if we'll panic."

"Permission to talk about it Bruno, we all know about this Claude" One of the troops said.

"Yeah, since he stole Dr. Rooney's invention, he became more dangerous than before."

"Yeah! That's true.."

"Do you want to put our lives in a risky situation?"

"Did you forget our vow when we join the troops? We will offer our lives for our duty." Bruno said.

"But Bruno?"

Arguments broke out among them until Chou spoke up.

"Let me take this all by myself if no one does. Anyone who was afraid may go home! Anyone who's ready, I need you in this mission."

They become speechless after Chou said this, Bruno was amazed on it and said. "To those who have brave heart, must remain, to anyone who was afraid, you may go home right away."

No one leaves,the rest also stay even there's a butterfly on their stomach.

"I never forced you to join this mission, you stay means you're willing." Bruno said. "This night, we will keep on watch all time. But we must be careful."

Leandra is fixing anything in the house and doing some house hold chore, someone knocked at the door.

She approached the close door. "Who's this?"

"It's me Leandra."

"Chou?" She opens the door and Chou get inside.

Leandra closed the door and asked, "How was your duty?"

"Fine, I need to have a rest today because we have a duty overnight." Chou changed his clothes.

As chou removed his clothes, Leandra stopped as she saw his musculine body.

Chou turns around. "Are you alright?"

"Uhmm.. Yes." Leandra looked away and continue her work.

Chou lie on the bed. "Just have a rest if you're tired."

"I'm alright, I enjoy doing my work." Leandra replied.

"Ok, But if you get tired, take a rest." He closed his eyes and take a nap.

Leandra looked at his face, with sparkling eyes.

The evening comes, Chou prepare himself for his duty.

Leandra embraced Chou, worried and said." Please be careful, I have a dream last night."

"What was your dream?" Chou asked.

"You will face a dangerous foe, and his dangerous enough to kill you."

"Really?" Chou asked.

Leandra explained all about what she saw, and all of it is exactly what happened this time, including their meeting. Leandra told Chou what the theif will do and how to capture him.
