The winds in Caldor had changed; everyone knew something was going on, and there was something they couldn’t control happening in their midst, so the best thing they could do was to stay away and make sure that no one would even go close to it. Neo Ackerman and Michael Keaton knew what they were in for, and they didn’t want to believe that it was going to happen right away. Neo didn’t want anything to come between his deal with the order and what he was going to get, but hearing that Sirus was in town made it clear where he was standing and how fragile the floors were. He needed to make sure that no matter what happens, he won’t be in the crossfire, and the last thing he would be thinking about is what was going to happen next. Michael had made his way to see Neo; he knew that the only person who would be able to say something about what was going on was one of the big shots in the city, and he wasn’t going to back down from anything. “You better have a good darn reason to be her

Years ago, on the blood-stained snows of the Northern Plain…The warriors of Zauf were parading with their lord standing by their side; they were going to take over one of the biggest lands on the continent, and nobody would be able to stop them. With them was the strongest warrior in their nation, the one known for his cruelty and strength. The Shadow of Zauf himself…Sirus had taken down the army of the North, blocking their path with his valiant men, and they were not going to let anything even come close to making it hard. “Sirus, today the North will fall, and you will be the one who led us to this victory.” Klaus had a smile on his face knowing that the warrior he had assigned as his second in command was up for the duty, and nothing was going to hold him back from doing anything that he was assigned to do. “Lord Klaus, I will forever serve you and the army of our powerful nation of Zauf. They aren’t going to get us to back down from a fight, and even if they had a plan to

Nathan had gotten the call from Rachel while he was in another meeting with Loid and Steven. He didnt think much of it, but hearing her voice and her being all worried was something off. “Rachel, what is going on?” He was already worried that there was something about to happen; it was not even possible that something might have happened. “It's a code black, she is out there fighting someone and….”The line went dead, Nathan was looking at the phone, his eyes were empty, and he was trying to get his head through who might have gotten there. He was not about to rush there knowing that there was a chance they would be putting her in danger, but then there was something going on, and if he was not fast about it, then something might happen to Rachel, and he would never be able to forgive himself for it. “What happened?” Loid was looking at Nathan, the man walked past him with a strange look on his face, showing he was not about to be handling anything that was beyond what he would w

Sirus stood across the hall, looking at Cruz, waiting for him to make a move that would give him the opening he needed to take him down. There was nothing that would give him more joy than to remove the one man who seemed to be a huge problem for him at the moment. Cruz was still shocked to see Sirus in front of him. He knew something was about to happen, and it was about to take a swing south if he wasn't going to use his brain. “I—I didnt do anything to make you angry, my liege, and you know it. There is nothing that should make you even think of…” “You found out that Rachel Martins is the last living member of the Arias family, and what did you do?” Sirus spoke softly, but his voice never wavered to be soothed by anything to be trifled with, and his eyes were on Cruz, trying to see if he was going to use it to pin him down and make sure he would take out the man who was making things hard for him at the moment. “You went on to take her out alone, not even trying to bring it to

Their clash was strong enough to send waves through the company wall, and Elena was strong enough to hold her own against Cruz. It was like trying to put down a rabid dog, trying to do its best to kill her. Every strike Cruz made, Elena seemed to have a counter and a quick recovery time that made it hard for anyone to even put up with her in any way. She was one of the generals for a reason, and that reason was that no one would even think of coming close to her to put her down. Cruz saw what she was doing and the way it felt like she had the moves waiting for him to make a mistake. “You know this is why I always saw you as someone formidable, and I would never do anything to cross your path.” He said as he took a step back, his eyes on Elena, who didnt seem to have broken a sweat yet. “It was the reason why you didn't even look like someone I would try to take on because I knew the moment I went for you, then there would be problems that even my skills couldn’t buy me out of.”

“Come on, Rachel, you don’t need to do anything to make sure that nothing is going to come your way from all the angels, and I will make sure you will not even know what is going to happen if you let it go that much.” Elena was trying to see if he could get Rachel to calm down over some business agreements they had, and from what he was seeing, it was not going to be easy for anything even to happen. Rachel was trying to get her head out of the game for some time, knowing what it meant if they were about to get something done. “I am telling you, if we can get this company to back down, then there is a chance for you to maximise the earning rate of this company, and we aren't going to be getting anything out of it if we keep taking the low way down.” Elena had a smile on her face. She was surprised that Rachel was picking up fast enough like that, and there was nothing a bit off about it except that she was now taking everything like she was darn pro in the field for a long time.
