Keith left the Kendricks family mansion without even looking back, he waited in front of the mansion so the car Marx sends for him spots him early. 

“I cant believe that they are this late, I would have to question Marx when I see him,” Keith was getting tired waiting for his car to arrive. He looked around to see if he would spit any cars coming to pick him up. 

“Well look who it is, I know he needed help from the way he left the house.” Keith heard a voice from behind him, he turned to see  who it was and he saw it was Jared and Eleanor coming out of the mansion holding hands. 

“You would have asked for spare change, instead of standing here to beg for money what a disgrace.” Eleanor spat on the ground next to Keith, Keith didn't even pay attention to them. 

He stood there still waiting for them to go wherever they were going, but it was like they were going to enjoy trying to torment him. 

“I think I have a spare hundred in my pocket, I will give you tha so you will take your sorry self out of here.” Jared smiled mockingly, he dipped his hands into his pocket and pulled out a roughed up old Hundred dollar note. 

“There it is, now I will give this to you and I don't want to see you anywhere close to this house again.” Jared smiled as he pressed the hundred dollar note on Keith, Keith didn’t react or even or say a word. 

“You are acting like you don't need the money, we both know that you need it more than anyone and you are here acting all high and mighty. Jared is even overlooking the face that you brutally attacked him, he is even trying his best to make sure you get a cab.” 

Eleanor was trying Her best to make sure that she made Keith feel less of himself. It seemed like it was not working, Jared and Eleanor noticed that Keith was not even trying to pay attention to them. 

“Jared being the better man than you has offered to fake me out on an expensive date, something you would have never done in your life or the next.” Eleanor smiled as she wrapped herself closer to Jared trying to make Keith feel jealous. 

“Dont worry man, maybe you will meet a beautiful retard to meet your fetish needs.” Jared placed his hand on Keith again, he was trying to square up to Keith making him less of himself. 

“I will not tell you again, get your filthy mitts off me.” Keith was sounding cold, he looked at Jared with emotionless eyes. 

“Or what? Unlike before I will make sure that the guards will take care of you.” Jared smiled like a brute, Keith looked behind him and he saw Jared's guards. 

“I will make sure that you will pay for what you did to me inside unless you fall to my feet and beg for your life then I will consider letting you go.” Jared was trying to let Keith know that he was going to make him pay for hurting him before. 

“I won't say it again, remove your hands from my shoulder or the last thing you will see will be my fist.” Keith gave him another warning, he looked at Jared who was not ready to let Keith go at any time. 

“Cmon big boy, take your best swing. That's if you have a death wish, I know you don't value your life so I will take it from you.” 

Jared held on to Keith's shoulder a bit tighter than before to provoke Keith even more.  

“Wrong choice,” 

Keith muttered before taking Jared's arm and slamming him to the floor in a split second. His movement was too fast for anyone to spot. 

All Eleanor saw was Jared being lifted from the ground then he was taken down with a loud thud. 

“Are you insane?! How dare you hit Jared again?! I see you don't value your freedom and I will see to it that you are beaten up for this.” Eleanor raised her voice alerting Jared's guards. 

They came towards Keith, all of them in black looking at him. “I don't know who you are, but you are going to pay for hurting the boss and I will see to it that after we beat you up that we will find a good cell for you to rot in.” 

“I see why he makes so much noise, he hides behind a bunch of senseless zombies doing all his hard chores, I wonder if he can even do anything for himself.” Keith mocked the guards with a smirk on his face, he was clearly taunting the guard to make a move. 

“You bastard!” The guard launched at Keith, but before he could even lay a finger on Keith. Keith delivered two blinding kicks to his head rendering him unconscious. 

Eleanor stood by the side looking at Keith, she was shocked to see that he could perform such a high level of martial arts. 

'Since when has Keith been able to fight like this? All I knew was that he was no good for nothing.’ 

“Come on, I can take you all on and still not break a sweat, with the amount of money he is paying all of you. One of you should be able to land a blow on me.” Keith kept taunting Jared's guards trying to see if any of them would react again. 

Jared, who had regained consciousness, staggered up. “You bastard, you dare hit me! I will see to it that you are erased from this place.” 

Jared looked around to see the leader of his guards knocked out cold on the floor. Keith looked at him with a smirk on his face, “Maybe whenever you quit hiding behind your daddy's blanket then I will consider taking you seriously.” 

Jared infuriated, put his hand into his pocket and pulled out a pistol, “you know what? I know that there will be no one to look for your worthless corpse. I will make sure that your body is thrown into the ocean!” 

Jared was about to pull the trigger when a black Audi SQ8 pulled up right in front of them. Two able-bodied guards step down from the vehicle and move towards Keith ignoring Jared and his weapon. 

The guards bow down in front of Keith as they say “We are sorry we are late sir.”

    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’
