Bill was always the one who tried his best to see that Nathan smiled or even looked lively with them, but there was nothing he could do to make him feel happy. He was still trying to heal from the pain of losing his family and the nightmares he had. They would constantly keep him awake, driving him crazy whenever he thought about it. It only took one night, and everything was still playing in his head. “You know it’s not your fault?” Bill would always try to talk to him, Nathan had told him what was on his mind and how he was trying to make sure that he wouldn’t fall into despair. “You were a child and you think that there is something you would have been able to do to save yourself from all this.” Bill placed his hand over Nathan trying to make sure he was not going to lose a friend. It wasn’t clear yet what would happen if he were trying to leave alone. “You know, there were many things you could imagine happening but then you are still alive and kicking so there is no need o

The Northern Plain was strong, but there was nothing they wouldn't do to stay in their line of power and ensure that nothing would come close to taking them out. It was not easy trying to remove something from its orbit, but they knew what they would do to avoid the pain that would come from everything going down the drain. The generals were the best part of the reasons why no one would even think of crossing the path of the North, and amongst them lay a weapon strong enough to push back nations that seemed a bit out of control for some time. Nathan Specter… He had trained almost every day, making his body one of the strongest and most durable of all the other generals. They were not even trying to take the position he held as the strongest from him when they saw what he was slowly becoming. Their respect for him grew by the day. Bill was even more proud of him when he saw how far Natan was going, and nothing was going to hold him back from getting what he had in mind. Natu

Present Time…Nathan was trying to get his mind clear on the things in front of him at the moment. He knew it was not going to be easy for him to even think of putting anything down. He had gotten something done with his wife, and he wasn't afraid something might come up that would hurt her or even make them think of anything else. He had gotten them to pipe down and make sure that nothing was going to bring them to be placed under her, and he was going to make sure that things would stay that way until he was sure no one would be able to undo it. Now he had to deal with the matters that were placed in front of him, the problem he had with Zauf, and the heirlooms he had to make sure he would get his hands on before it was too late. “The Keaton Family still hold a few, but I dont know where the others are placed,” looking at a paper he had written down the names of the families who were holding the heirlooms he could only see the Keatons and for some reason he was saving them for t

Cruz had made it his life’s work to ensure he would be seen as better and more efficient than Nathan. Even if it meant that he would need to do things that he wouldn’t be proud of, he was going to do anything to make sure he was going to be on that wall of respect and no one would be able to come in between it. He planned to take back the respect he had where the other generals stood; he didn’t need to be approved in any way. He just needed to know what he would do or even conjure that placed him above everything. It was his unhealthy obsession with being the best that led him to do something that placed him on a pedestal of untold horror. It made him try to take power that wasn’t meant for the people who had reached the peak level of power and focus. It was then that he had signed up for his downfall, and no one would be able to stop him from doing what he had done, and he as brought himself down to the lowest path of it all. “I dont get it.” Ohera was looking at the paper Cruz

“Nathan, I know how much he meant to you and what you were willing to do to make sure that he would be fine but how sure are you that this is the truth?” Elena was looking at Nathan, trying to see if she would understand what he was saying about Bill being alive and the way it was not even looking a bit possible for anyone who would look at it. His mind was uneasy as he paced around the room, trying to get his thoughts together and figure out how he would be able to understand what Luca had told him. “Elena, you were there and so was Liu, we never found a body and it was like he had vanished from the face of the earth like there was nothing left of him.” Nathan sounded so convinced that they had found a lead on what happened to one of his allies and he wasn’t going to be letting it slip from his fingers. Elena sighed, she knew what he was saying wasn’t a lie but then there was something that didn’t sit right with them. “But it doesn’t feel normal, if he has been there for years i

South Hima Restaurant Caldor… Ben was inside, waiting for someone to show up, and from the looks of things, he was waiting patiently for her to show up. He had decided to do something, and his son and family would not have a say in it. He knew that they would want to do something to stop it. Even if all of them didn’t do anything, Elizabeth would not even want him to think of something like that knowing what it would do to them and how it was going to be the end of anything they were going to think of. “I don’t want anything to hold me down, this isn’t going to be the best thing for her if I told who she was and why it was important that she would decide what she wanted in life now it was still early.” He didn’t know if he was going to be there when the time would come for her to learn more about her family. But it wasn’t going to be the best thing to keep her in the dark for long. “Grandpa?” Ben turned to see Rachel standing behind him, dressed in a long green gown that seeme

Nathan stayed back while Liu and Elena decided to get something done about the whole Bill situation: they knew what it was going to do to Nathan if he was allowed to even think of what he was going to do next and then how he was meant to get the heirlooms he was looking for. “If all this is true, then it means that there is no way I caused his death and I have been carrying something that never happened in my heart the whole time.” Nathan scratched his head trying to put things in order, he knew what it would do to him if he wasn’t thinking straight. “This has to be one of the worst things that could happen to anyone.” He stood in his study trying to make sure that he would get an understanding of what was happening and how he was going to solve it. “Nate…” He turned to see Rachel standing right behind him, a worried look on her face and her tone showed how uneasy she was even standing that far from him. “Rachel, what’s wrong? Did anything happen?” Nathan had immediately forgo

Keaton Residence… Michael knew that there was nothing he would do to make Neo stop his plans and he also knew that it was going to be about time that they would come up with something more sinister than any of them would even want to think of. “Father,” Michael turned to see who was calling, he could see James standing behind him with a cast in his left leg and he was standing with the help of a staff. “James, you’re out of your bed.” Michael didn’t sound surprised, he turned back to the work on his table trying to put his head through everything that was happening. “I hope it’s something important for you to ignore your health to be here.” James grunted as he walked closer to his father, looking at him with an odd look on his face. “I came to ask that you give me the chance to hunt down the man that…” “No.” Michael didn’t allow his son to finish speaking, cutting him off when he was about to say what he wanted. “No?” James raised a brow looking at his father who seemed to b

“So you're telling me that you knew he was going to tell her all he knew about her and what she has and you didn’t do a thing to stop him?” Elizabeth was looking at Kelvin, knowing that Ben had made sure he told Rachel all she needed to know about her family and what she was. “What did you expect me to do? Stop him? Tell him that he couldn’t do a thing or even tell her what she was meant to know?” Kelvin was looking at his wife trying to see if he would get her to see that there was no need for her to even push something that far and that it was already too late for anything like that. “He decided because he is the oldest one in this damn family and he has every right to make sure no one would—”“He didn’t have to tell her where she was from or how she was brought here! That was okay being a secret and we would have used it to our benefit.” Elizabeth was filled with rage, looking at her husband she couldn’t even tell what she was trying to get her mind to admit. “He has ruined e

A Dark Meeting Ground, Location? Unknown! Neo Ackerman could be seen walking in with a robe and cloak and a nasty smile on his face. “It’s been years since these people thought it would be nice for them to call me like this.” He walked down a dark hall, torch lights hanging on each side of the walls illuminated the entire path. Almost like they were going in for a ritual. Reaching a certain part of the hall he stopped then turned around to see if he would see anything that would help him out. “If you all are still trying to go for the mysterious cult type of vibe then you got it but please I have something I need to do.” He spoke darting his eyes around to see if he would find anything leading him to what he was meant to be doing. Suddenly the lights lit up and five men in robes could be seen on chairs on each part of the hall. They were scary and menacing, making them look like they were there to make sure nothing would go wrong with anything they were trying to do. “What are
