“Scepter’s division failed?” Tiron asked, his eyes darting around, knowing that there wasn't anything to save them from Akayaza’s wrath. They couldn't afford to let anything disrupt their plans. “It isn't going to be nice facing them, and with us also losing Aaron and Kaden Sio at the same time, this isn't something I can even think of handling.” David spoke up; all the scythes were there. Including the hot-headed Liam, who had firsthand seen what the man they were facing could do and how far he could push, he made sure everyone understood what was about to come. ‘That monster isn't something that would be taken lightly, and there isn't going to be any chance for us to take down that beast if we don't have a good enough plan.’ He knew what was waiting for them, and how it looked like they were not going to be ready for anything he would throw their way. Darius was a monster that would eat them whole, and he wouldn't do it slowly. It would be done once and fast… Vance looked

Back at the mansion, Darius was still getting used to seeing Meliodas walk around, and he wasn’t getting used to it that easily. “You know that there isn’t much time for you to spend your day staring at me like this?” Meliodas spoke; his eyes were closed, and he was in his crane stance, trying to attune himself for training and other things. Darius stood there, staring at him with a strange look. “I wanted to ask you a good question; this you would need to answer carefully.” Meliodas opened his eyes and turned to look at the man standing right behind him. “What is it you wish to know?” He asked, moving as if he were hovering down from the air. Darius sat down on the ground, crossing his legs as if he were about to take something from his master. His eyes stayed on the ground; he tried to keep his thoughts in one place. He thought about the Evada, the upcoming fights, the nightmares that resurfaced, and the fact that Leah was working with the enemy. He couldn’t do anything t

Back at the Scythe headquarters, Leah was still having an internal crisis. Visions of a white-haired man and a smiling family still flashed through her mind, and she couldn't stop them. “Who are these people?!” She cried, trying to pull herself together, knowing nothing could help her unless she found out who they were. Nothing helped her find the answer; everything she was seeing was clearly connected to her and her past. But nothing helped her get close to understanding what it was or who they were. Leah lunged for the table and tossed it across the room. She rushed for the utensils and didn't hold back, tearing everything apart to find what was going on in her head. “Why am I seeing these images? Who are you, and why am I seeing all of you?!” Her voice was filled with pain, trying to get herself to be calm, but there wasn't anything that could bring it all down to a clear point that she was dealing with something hidden. It felt like she was seeing things that didn’t add u

“What in the world are you trying to say?” Darius raised an eyebrow, looking at Meliodas and trying to understand what was going on. Meliodas didn't want to say anything about the issue; they were bound to get their heads mixed into something else. “Well, you see…” He sat up straight, his eyes darting around as if searching for something. “It remains a fact that you are the Heir to the First Heaven, but you haven't been given the throne, and that only can make people believe that there is no need for the throne to be there.” Darius could read through his ploys; he could tell something else was going on that he couldn't see or even touch at the moment, but it was clear they were using this for something else. “What is the catch here?” he asked, his brows bent in a certain way as he stared at the man in front of him like he was hiding something. Meliodas smiled; he knew there was no need to hide anything from him, since he could sniff it out, and he didn't need to think about hi

“Leah!!” “Darius!!” The little girl held out her hand, trying to grab her brother's. Darius tried to make sure that he would save her. But then the house exploded, and Leah was gone. The whole space went dark, and Darius stood there, seeing nothing to guide him. In the dark, he tried not to lose himself. “Da-rius?” He paused, turning to look right behind him, and he saw her. Leah stood there, looking at him. “Why didn't you save me?” “I tried. I was trying to get to you, but I was taken away…” “You left me there!” “No, no, no!” Darius clenched his chest, knowing nothing could have saved him. “I was taken away; I did everything to help you. But there wasn't a chance for me; they took me from the house and–” “You left me there, my own brother left me to die in that safe!!” Darius stood there as Leah slowly turned into the woman he had seen at that place; he couldnt bring himself to understand what was going on and how he was going to be dealing with what was going to

It was now clear that they had lost the chance to take the people they were sent to take; the Akayaza knew that loss after loss would make it look like they had lost their touch at everything. “I don't understand what is going on with the way those boys run their things now; it is almost like they are baiting us into believing that they aren't going to be able to handle anything important.”Loru was furious, trying again to piece things together and make sure nothing was left out of their plans to prepare for the next phase of taking down the order of things. None of the other members could speak; the Akayaza were the second layer of power within the Obsidian, and above them sat the great ones who could handle everything that came their way. Everyone above was once an Akayaza, and they'd worked their way up there. But now they were in the middle of a crisis that could ultimately bring them to their end. “The Nine Heavens have a hand in this, even if I can't prove it. I know what
