" I think it is settled then. We need to move fast Eddy, we don't know the danger Zico is in."Max is determined to follow them, " I am fine okay. I can handle myself.""Are you sure about this? We don't know Zaco as much as you. But if he is deadly then you need to stay back. We can handle him on our own."" I promise I won't slow you down." The crew, now focused on finding Zico, gathered their belongings and prepared to follow the signal Eddy had traced. Max, though weakened, was determined to contribute to their mission.As they made their way through the unfamiliar territory, Amy kept a watchful eye on Max, concerned about his well-being. "Max, you really should take it easy. We don't want you passing out on us again," she urged."I appreciate the concern, Amy, but time is of the essence. We can't afford to waste any more of it," Max replied, determination overshadowing the pain in his eyes.Darius chimed in, "Max is right. We need to move quickly, but we also need to be cautious

Darius and the rest of the crew immediately delve into action. They needed to find Zaco and Xavier fast. And with the help of Shades now, they were impossible to find. " Eddy, can you help track down Zaco and Xavier? We need to find them as soon as possible. Max's life is at stake at the moment. We can't afford to slack away right now." Darius said, looking at the rest of the crew l." I can't track them at the moment. I have tried even before you ask me but it looked like Shades had been cloaking all their activities."Dino looked at them as they went on and on trying to arrive at a solution. Then suddenly an idea crept into his mind. " Xavier!"The crew turned around to look at him. " Dino, are you saying something?" " Yes! Yes! That is the key. We need to find Xavier first. I am sure he would be able to know how to find them."" how do we find him?" Zico asked." I will try finding him my way. You should try yours too." Dino immediately walked out of the hideout leaving Darius a

" See, we don't have time. The more you stay in here the more we are in danger. We need to find a way out of all of this." Max said, feeling weak." Zico, how do we get out of here? Do you have any plans?" They all looked at him." I don't know right now but one thing I am sure of is that Zaco, shades, and Xavier are coming into this world because they knew you all would be here right now." Zico looked at their faces.Zico’s revelation about the impending danger intensified the urgency among the group. Zico, still wiping the blood off his face, spoke with a sense of gravity, "We're trapped in Shade's illusion, and the longer we linger, the more dangerous it becomes. We need to find a way to break free before Zaco, Shades, and Xavier arrive."Darius, ever the strategist, took charge, "We can't wait for them to catch us off guard. Let's gather information, assess our surroundings, and figure out the weak points of this illusion. There has to be a way out."As they began to look through

" Aah!!" the shout of Max had the whole crew running towards his room. Irrisia looked at him " What is going on Max? You scared us." Max looked at every one of them, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you. I just had a bad dream."" You had a dream? You want to tell us what it is about?" Dino asked." Dreams ain't real. I don't believe in that shit." Eddy said." Can you keep quiet!" Irrisia sounded irritated by Eddy's voice." Care to tell us what it was all about?" Dino pressed further." I dreamt the world fell into chaos. It felt so real." He said and looked into their faces." I told you….I told you it is stuff like this. You just need to listen to me when I am saying this." Eddy said, and angrily left the room.Irrisia smiled, "Everything is going to be fine. You just need to calm yourself and get enough rest. I believe you staying in the other world must have done a lot for you. You need to calm down Max." "I am sorry I bothered you. I just felt so scared." Max added.The cr

"Ahhhhhh…." Max looked at shades and then back at Drakon. "What is going on?' he asked as blood trickled down from his nose." Mind control, we need to get out of here before Shades has full control. Once he does, it will be too late." Drakon managed to talk back at Max.As Shade's control intensified, Zaco laughed seeing his arch-enemies in pain. Suddenly Max flew off the ground into the air releasing the grip of Shades over him.Drako was shocked at what just happened, "Why didn't I think of any of this." he also flew into the air, Zico and Zaco went to join them leaving the rest to Shades to deal with.Max looked at Zaco, " Your reign of terror ends now. If you think you are leaving here then you underestimated me. Zico and Drakon, I need you to stop Zaco at all costs."Zico looked at his brother, "You need to stop this madness at once. I don't want to harm you. I have protected you since your high school days. Don't make me do this. We can all find a middle ground and coexist in p
