Gregor looked out of his bedroom window, his family had stayed in New York but he couldn't go out unless going to his mom first. It had been 2 years since he was in the Underland. Suddenly their was a knock on the door.

"Gregor, you there?", Lizzie asked in a quiet voice.

"Yea, what's wrong, it's 1:00 A.M., what are you doing up?", Gregor said as he opened the door.

"Well I just wanted to, umm… talk you know.", she said looking at him.

Lizzie stayed in Gregor's bedroom talking about a bad dream she had, it was about the Underland. Gregor zoned out and was thinking about Luxa, and Ripred and how their negotiations were going.

After a few weeks Gregor had woken up from a dream about him and Ares. It was a horrible dream, it replayed the scene where Area was killed over, and over again. He took out the toy bat that Boots had given to him. Gregor clutched the toy so hard that his hand started to bleed. In the morning Gregor woke up for breakfast.

"What happened to your hand?", his mom asked pointing at the scratches.

"I fell on the ground yesterday.", he said as he began eating his eggs.

After his breakfast Gregor went to school, it was a normal day until Samuel, the "bully" of the school walked up to him.

"Yo.", he said smirking as he cracked his knuckles.

Gregor simply walked passed him, seeing this Samuel went in for a punch, Gregor dodged it easily and then kicked Samuel's leg to trip him. Gregor had better thing to do than fight a school bully. He was planning on going back.

Meanwhile in the Underland Luxa was going on a expedition with a few 500 men. "Alright, we are trying to track down an organization called Free Lordship, although it is organized by humans you must show no mercy, they have killed countless gnawers, crawlers, nibblers, and spinners.", she said in a harsh tone. The men looked nervously around, the Free Lordship was an organization of skilled assassins. By the time night came none of them had found the base of Free Lordship.

"Queen Luxa, we haven't found any leads and the men are tired may we rest?", a soldier asked.

"Very well, but a few of you must stay up and keep watch, I shall take the second shift", she said. As the men drifted to sleep the watchers also soon got tired. They fell asleep shortly after. Suddenly out of nowhere a large scream was heard waking Luxa and her men. They woke just in time to see a soldier get killed by a masked figure. Soon after almost 100 other figures emerged and started striking the men. Luxa cut down countless assassins but her men were quickly overcome because of being much less skilled.

"Retreat!", she shouted as her and the remaining men started to run but before she could get far the handle of the blade struck her head. She fell and slowly lost consciousness.
