Everyone was quite tense having the ex-leader of the society in the study. Gavin was no exception. That was his old boss.
They all say down in some seat of sort. The sphinx cleared his throat, but stopped short when he saw Gavin, "Hey Navorog. How you doing?"
"Gavin," he corrected briskly.
The sphinx raised an eyebrow, but just shrugged, "Anyways I'm sure your all wondering why I've come." Everyone nodded.
"I suspect the society is trying to re-form itself. I know that is a bold statement to make, but a few of my contacts and spies have given me reports of such activity."
Kendra, Seth, Warren, and Gavin all groaned in perfect harmony.
"I also have confidence that they will be much stronger than the knights can handle. You are going to need help," the sphinx suggested.
"And who ,exactly, do you have in mind?" Warren asked dryly.
The sphinx grinned and turned to Kendra. Gavin felt a urge to protect her from this vile man, to put an arm over her shoulders.
"Well... There is a legend about a secret group that call themselves the Human Guardians."
Kendra's eyes narrowed and she let out a low growl.
The sphinx merely smirked and continued, "Now I do not have a clue on where their fortress would lie..., but I know that Kendra does."
Kendra glared, "And how do you come to a conclusion that I know of this group."
The sphinx shrugged, "I recognized you from the last time the society had a huge battle. You really are good with that sword of yours.
Now, Kendra, I'm not saying bring in the entire knights of dawn and expose yourselves, but only bring in these people, train them, and talk your comrades into another full fledged war with your entire force."
Kendra sighed, "I can't just bring them in without them joining and all."
"Then induct them!" The sphinx said simply.
Kendra raised an eyebrow, "and then they'd all be stuck with immortality until murdered. That's a huge sacrifice."
Seth spoke up, "Seriously Kendra, we've come this far. It's our job to protect the world ,and I for one am more than willing to make one more sacrifice!"
"Who is willing to join," the sphinx asked. Everyone save mr. And mrs. Sorenson raised their hand. "There you go ,Kendra."
"We leave tomorrow," Kendra announced.

Kendra was worried. She didn't want them to regret this later. She didn't of course, but she had watched so many people die over the years.

Kendra strode down the stairs the next morning in a shirt made of chain mail, her favorite sword at her hip, and a chain filled with dog tags around her neck. Her hair was braided, showing a long scar behind her ear. She sat down with a bowl of Cheerios.
"What's with the amour?" Bracken asked.
Kendra shrugged, "I like this shirt."
"Do you usually dress like this at this 'fortress'?" Bracken asked again.
Kendra nodded as she shoveled a spoonful into her mouth, "Usually with a LOT more weapons on me."

Gavin hopped in the car, Kendra was driving. She turned on her playlist. She certainly did love Fall Out Boy almost every other song was one of their songs. Not that Gavin had anything against them.
Kendra ran off the road into some woods.
"So it's at some forest?" Gavin asked confused.
Kendra snorted, "well it's certainly not somewhere one can just reach on a road or we our secret would have been exposed by now."
They kept on driving deeper and deeper into the forest until they reached a clearing.
This clearing was filled with people of every age, size, race, and gender. Some were fighting, some talking, some walking, etc. Was huge and had a dining pavilion on one end, a bunch of sleeping bags on the other, and in the center a huge campfire pit.
Kendra grinned at her home and hopped out.
