The Constant Star

15th Star: A Manifestation

AEGEAN HALE

WHEN we got outside of the woods, I immediately contacted Cnidus to pick us up and cancel the training for today. After finding out that the property we saw belongs to the vendetta we are tracking down, I called off the training and told everyone including Amoux to go back to Glozelle's house for a meeting. After the archer saw us, I'm sure a war could and would start anytime soon. He will not turn a blind eye on what he saw.

"I just hate the fact that we didn't have a chance to at least take a picture of the place!" Glozelle commented in an annoyed tone. I smirked.

"You're not sure about that."

I showed her the watch on my wrist. This is a high technology device specially created for the Black Hole. It functions like a phone with all its features. It has built in tiny cameras which are all active anytime of the day and has a fingerprint sensor. Its difference to the smartphones we usually use is it provides holographic visuals of the real time events. This gadget is developed to serve as a communication device for the four of us—including Amoux. I will ask for another one since Glozelle is with us already.

"Why are you showing me your watch? I mean, I know that's high tech but..."

"Just wait and see."

I pushed the "show me" button on my watch and it showed me a holographic image of the property we discovered earlier. Until now, I'm still amazed with what this gadget can do even though I've been using it for months already. Technology has been experiencing innovations from time to time. And those innovation shows how humans are capable of transcending and making our way of life easier.

"Look, this is an image of the property. Actually, we have a footage of everything that happened and will happen today."

"This is so amazing! Could I have one of those watches?"

"Don't worry, I'll inform them and request one for you. This will serve as our official communication device, okay?"

"Alright."

We managed to secure ourselves in case someone comes looking for us and attack us because of what we discovered. Cnidus and Blake arrived after twenty minutes and we all immediately went back at Glozelle's house. We all just went to the living room and settled in while waiting for Amoux to arrive.

"Do we really need to disturb, Amoux? He's busy with his training right? We can just tell him about this some other time." Glozelle said, crossing his legs which are placed on top of the table.

"If this is a normal mission and not an urgent matter, it's fine if he's not here. But because of what happened earlier and what that archer saw, I don't think so. I'm sure once Amoux heard about this, he will inform the pack and then they will start preparing. The war could start anytime from now—earlier than we all expected."

"Okay, I get that."

Another five minutes passed. As we set up the table and scatter the documents on top of it, Amoux entered the room. We all sit properly and prepared for our conversation and planning. Amoux looks tired and extremely burned out. He's wearing his usual training attire. Long sleeves, cargo pants, and combat boots. We all wear that set of clothing most of the time when we are on training.

"What's happening? Why did you suddenly called me for a meeting?" Amoux asked, catching his breath.

"Do you want a glass a water?" Blake answered with a question.
