Tyde waited for night to fall.She saw that two of the gang members were guarding the door and it seemed the female boss was resting at a nearby building.
She got out of her car, sword in hand. After a small fight she had knocked down the guards at the door, but one of them had shouted and alerted the others.
Tyde made her way to Ares quickly.
"Who are they?"She asked as she slashed down the chains binding Ares.
" The Adaras. They told me I was transporting drugs. "
" Drugs? " Tyde asked as they ran to her car.
" You were caught with drugs? "
" Lady Demetero asked me to transport them, I really thought they were tea leaves."
"Crap. You have been set up."
By this time the Adara gang had surrounded their car. Katherine Adara had released what looked like a fire ball at them.
Tyde neutralised it with her water power, she then turned around the car and drove away full speed. Katherine and her gang chased after them in two other cars.
"Is that the truck with the drugs?" , asked Tyde referring to a truck parked near the warehouse.
"Yes." said Ares.
When they reached a junction, she turned her car around much to the surprise of the Adaras who were close behind them.
"What the hell are you doing?" shouted Ares
"We are going back." said Tyde.
It seemed that the peace and quiet of the Yona hill side was being disturbed by the three cars going at full speed.
"Why are they going back to the warehouse?" asked one of the gang members.
"Don't tell me, they want to get back the drugs?" spoke Lady Katherine
When the red mustang they were chasing had gone in through the gates, they saw a water barrier suddenly appear behind it barring their entry.
"What the hell." said Lady Katherine. "A water barrier?"
She had heard of it before and knew that it would take a lot of strength to break one.
She called three of the gang members who were from the fire clan.
"If we attack together, we might be able to break this barrier. Our strengths combined should be enough." Katherine said and they obeyed.
Katherine and the fire clan members powered up to their maximum.
"One, two, three.. Attack." Katherine shouted.
The barrier did not break, but it shook.
"One more time." said Katherine
"One, two, three.. Attack."
This time the barrier broke down quickly, even before they attacked. But Katherine and party had already released their fire power, which struck at full strength at what lay on the other side of the barrier, which was the truck containing the drugs.
Katherine and the gang saw the truck going up in flames.
"Put out the fire, now!" Katherine shouted, but it was too late.
During the commotion, the red mustang with Ares at the wheel reached the gates at full speed. Tyde who was sitting in the passenger seat directed some of her power at the gang and Katherine fell backwards having no left over energy from breaking the barrier.
The gang members ran up to her and the Vodas passed through the gates at full speed.
"No need to chase after them." said Katherine gritting her teeth and getting up . "We do not have the evidence anymore ."
**********
Katherine Adara sat with Raul in his mansion and explained to him how she had failed her mission. Gaga stood with them as she talked.
"It's Tyde Voda again." Raul gave a short laugh and sat back in his chair.
" Do you happen to know her my Lord?" asked Katherine .
"I broke a bone of hers only last week." said Raul and Katherine stared at him with surprise.
"Forget that. I get the part where Ares was rescued by his cousin. But how exactly were the drugs burnt to ashes when the Vodas are clearly from the water clan?"
Katherine looked remorseful. "That is, my Lord, she made a water barrier and parked the truck behind it. And when we attacked the barrier..."
" The barrier broke down on its own and you ended up burning the truck? " asked Raul.
"Even if we bring it up with Helios now, it would look like as if we ourselves burnt the evidence my Lord." said Gaga
"She is not some ordinary lady My Lord." said Katherine. She was already ashamed of her failure and found the excuse that her opponent was sufficiently formidable.
"The question is whether she was involved from the start? If not, how did she know that we had Ares ?" asked Raul
"I have looked into it my Lord. She has been staying at the Logam's tea estate on the Yona hills for a few days now." said Gaga
"The Logams from the metal clan?"
"It seems Lady Voda is a close friend of Lady Clementine Logam."
"I see.So that's where she gets her swords from.." remarked Raul and then turning to Katherine he said, "Look into the Logams for me.... That Voda brat is loyal and clever but... not smart enough to handle me."
Raul stood up and took his coat.
"Where to my Lord?" asked Gaga following him.
"Where else do you think? Let's go complain to the adults." Raul smirked.
"You mean we are going to.."
"Lady Regina Voda.I don't think the mother of Ares Voda would be as foolish as Ares himself. She will know better. "
Gaga guessed what his Lord was about to do and quietly drove him to the Vodas.
