“I have checked everyone but the rat still keeps himself hidden, I don't know how he was able to keep himself hidden from us for long.” Marx sat down, he knew that there was no way he would be able to get things if he didn't find a way to get the culprit. 

“Strange, then it means that the person is amongst our ranks and he has been hiding from us. But how is possible that they would cause an accident that almost killed you three years ago.” Jacquline was not even clear on wh would think of trying to kill Keith. 

“Clearly whoever did it wanted to remove our master from his throne and they were trying to kill him to make sure their plan didnt fail.” Marx was looking at the table trying to make sense of the entire thing but it was still not clear to him how it happened under their watch. 

Keith dropped his glass on the table, he looked at the two men and he had something to say but he di not know how he was going to say it without causing a bit of confusion for them. 

“I know this is going to sound crazy but I think its best if I lay low for now and make sure that everything is okay before I even think of going out there to do anything. I will stay here for now, Marx. I want you to make sure that no one knows that I am back for now. I want to know what we would be able to find if I was to lay low,”

Keith was not the type of person to want to lay low, but he had chosen to make sure that he was not going to be seen by anyone until they found out who was trying to kill him all those years ago.

He knew that there was someone out there that was going to stop at nothing to make sure he was dead, but he didn’t know who it was that would even think of killing him. It was not known who would even attempt to do such a thing but it was not someone amongst his men but someone he has met before that would think of trying to kill him.

“So youre saying you will remain here? I dont really know what you will be doing here and what it will get you so I dont want to imagine what it is you are trying to get from hiding my Lord its not like you.”

Marx was sounding worried, he knew there was no telling what Keith had in mind and it was like he had made up his mind to make sure that no one would know until it was time for him to tell everyone.

“I know it might sound stupid and all but I think we have to make sure that we keep my being alive a secret for now. I know the people of Dragon Valley will want to see their ruler soon but I have to find out how they were able to take my throne from me and who it was that planned to kill me.”

Keith was still looking at his glass of wine, it was like he had something bothering him but he didn’t want t make it something that would make Marx and Jacquline worry themselves.

“You always have a plan and it seems you have thought of something even before you decided to tell us this,” Jacquline was looking at Keith he knew there was something that Keith was planning to do, it was up to him find out things he could do to make sure he didn’t lose anything.

“There is no fixed plan on it, I just want to make sure that I dont make a decision that will jeopardize my people or even make them lose anything. I dont know how far that psycho on that throne can go so I dont wnat to find out by making my peope face the dangers thay I would have to deak with.”

Keith was the type of person who would think of everyone first before thinking of himself, he wanted to make sure that nothing was going to happen when he made the decision to come out as the Lord of Dragon Valley, he knew that people would give anything to make sure they were on good terms with him.

“I see, you are trying to make sure that no one would even think of coming close to the valley now you are not there. But the people who planned your assassination waited three years before they made a move to try and take the valley. They even brought someone who would stand as the Lord of War.” Marx was looking at Keith, and with Keith’s reaction he knew that he had no intention of letting anyone slip up.

“The people of the valley will be safe for now, I will make sure that I find a way to make sure that no one would even think of going close to them. I know its not going to be easy but I will find a way. But for now, I will wish to be left alone to rest, I have had a long day.”

Keith wanted to calm his head down, there was nothing he wouldn’t do o make sure that his people had the best in their lives but he knew that if he was to make any mistake then it would make his people suffer.

“I understand sir, we will leave you alone for now.” Marx bowed down and took his leave, he was about to stand in Keith’s way of getting the rest he needed.

The two men left the room and it was like Kieth had gotten the peace he wanted but he didn’t know what he was going to do at that moment in time except think of the things he needed to fix up in MetroVille.

‘I know that there is no way on earth they would even want to see me after all this years but I will have to make sure that nothing is out of place and everything will be fine once I get back as the ruler of that valley.’

Keith walked around the room and he was not happy about the way things went for him earlier that day but he was not about to let it get in his way. 

“It's time I make sure that no one would ever think of walking all over me like that again.” Keith looked out the window, he had a smile on his face and it meant that he was ready for anything that will be thrown his way.

    Keith and Marx had made their way from MetroVille to the borders of the Dragon Valley. A thought kept going through their heads, and they were bound to get something done. Keith knew what was going on and what he would need to do, but he could not get the thought out of his head. He was bound to see everything and how it was going to pan out with their head down in a crack. Marx knew it wasn’t going to be easy for anyone to get their head through what was going to happen. “Are you going to be able to do this?” He asked, looking at Keith and the way he was moving in the car but there wasn’t going to be a chance for anything to come easy. Keith turned back, his eyes slowly closing trying to look into what Marx was trying to say. “What are you saying?” Keith asked, looking at his partner, but there wasn’t a chance for him to see what was going on in his head. “So if you face him, then there is a chance that you will have to…” “I know what I must do to make sure that nothing is g

    “Even if you don’t believe it, he is the Lord of the Dragon Valley, he’s the only one meant to sit on that throne…” The grand elder was looking at Kylian’s men, trying to make sure that there was no way for him to get even close to the throne. “You’re wasting your time, old timer,” one of the men smiled, moving closer to the grandmaster with a smile on his face. “I know you think there is going to be a chance for him to get what he wants, but he isn’t ever going to take that Throne again!” There was a roar; Kylian's men were jeering, knowing that there was no way for them to get something down. “You’re trying to tell me that Keith will come back here and try to take this throne?” He turned to look at the Grandmaster with a smirk on his face, moving closer, he could look him in the eye. “You’re still on a different plane, and I would want you to understand something important, even if it was a joke; there is no way for him to even think of taking this place down.” The man turned

    Noelle was trying to keep her mind off everything. It was not going to be easy for her to even imagine Keith being away for that long, and she knew what was going to happen next. ‘They won't waste time coming for me, and there is no way I would be able to fight them back alone.’ She wasn't trying to keep the fact that Helena was going to try something, and he knew it wasn't going to be easy for her without Keith around, but she knew things weren't going to be all hard. “I will just have to look for a way to get through all of this and not let them get into my head.” She said, standing up to move to the door of her office, but when she got there, she felt something off. It was almost like there was someone there, trying to shake it off. She needed to know what was going on. She opened her office door, but there was no one there, but everything was still odd, and she could feel like there was someone there. Looking down, she saw an envelope; she knew what was going on and that it

    Keith had made his arrangements; they were not going to waste time there in Metroville for another week, knowing that something was happening back at the Valley that needed his attention, but then he was also not going to be able to handle things there without someone being able to help him take care of Noelle. “Marx, are you sure there is no—” “Dont think of dropping me here, I am not going to have it, and I would love to let you know that nothing is going to make me even think of letting you handle whatever is happening down at home alone.” Marx made himself clear, and he wasn't going to be saying it over again for anyone to hear, but then he wasn't going to be wasting time there. “The Dragon Valley needs you to be back home. Kylian isn't going to be giving you an easy time. You shouldn't just think that something is going to come from all this as a normal way for you to even think of surviving.” Keith knew that Marx wasn't lying when he said that, but there was something else

    Keith was trying to get his head together before he would get to tell Noelle what he was going to be doing. He knew that there was no time for him to be hiding things from the woman he was going to be spending his life with, and he knew the damage it would do if he was not careful. He wasn't about to be playing games that would hurt her, and he wasn't about to spend his time trying to make up for something that wasn't meant to be there. He needed to know what he was about to do, walking straight to the room where Noelle had taken in the Phoenix Spring Hotel.He knocked on the door twice, trying to see if he would get her to respond. "Come in," she responded. Keith smiled as he opened the door, and he saw her standing by the window looking down, and the look on her face was a bit different from what he thought he was going to see. "Keith!" She sprang into his arms, and Keith didn’t waste time catching her. "You seem happy to see me, I didnt know you were expecting me like this." H

    “So you’re telling me that returning to the Dragon Valley isn’t part of your plan yet?” Jacqueline was looking at Keith. He didn’t know what was going through his mind, knowing that he was trying to keep something from them, but then it was also not going to be easy for him to explain to them what he had on his mind. “It doesn’t look good, and we all know that Kylain isn’t going to let us rest until he makes sure that there is no way for us to come to the Dragon Valley and if he wants Lord Keith to come back home then you know he has something on his mind and he isn’t just going to let him walk away with it.” Marx knew that nothing was going to push back Kylain from trying to get them to be back where they wouldn’t have a choice but back down. Both of them knew how far it was going to get, and with the way things were heading, it was clear that one mistake would mean that they were going to lose their way. “So you’re saying that he’s one step ahead or that he doesn’t…” “He doesn’
