Meanwhile as they continued to wait for Cye's return, Kento could not get into their conversation no matter how hard they tried, he kept his attention over towards Kaye's direction. He watched her as she was leaning over the marble railing overlooking the grounds. Kento growled when he felt someone shoved him a bit from behind. He whirled around and faced them. "What?"

"If we did not know any better, we would think you have feelings for her or something by the way you keep looking at her." Rowen taunted with a smirk.

"For your information blue boy, I do not have feelings for her. It just has been a long time since we have been together." Kento replied in a huff.

Sage raised a brow, "Right, so that is why you keep staring at her all the time."

"I do not!"

"Come on guys, lay off. Give the poor guy a break." Ryo said in Kento's defense.

Kento looked at Ryo, "Thanks man."

Ryo gave a small smile as he nodded, "No problem, but why do you keep looking over towards her anyway if you do not have feelings for Kaye?"

"I thought you guys would remember the promise we made to her dad in the last war. You know, the one where we said we would watch out for her if anything should happen to him." Kento reminded them.

Rowen and Sage looked at one another and back at him, "Kento, we were kids back then. We were caught up in the war just like everyone else. We did not know what we were getting into."

"I had to play off that I just heard about the loss of her father. I can not keep lying to her about what really happened. She is going to figure it out. Besides, he saved our lives back then, and we owe it to him to keep our promise. " Kento replied. "You better not be telling me you are backing out."

"No, we would never back out on a promise or a friend, come on, you know us better than that. What brought this on anyway?" Ryo asked with a frown.

Kento sighed before he started his explanation, "See, when Kaye arrived we got to talking. She asked me why have I not written her back during this whole time. I told her I have received every letter of hers. But the reason I gave her for not writing back was because of my advancing in ranks up to being commander that it did not give me much time to write."

Sage leaned towards his friend, "We know your reason is the truth Kento."

"Yea, but to me it just does not feel like it justifies my reasoning. I should have kept in better contact with her." Kento replied as he looked down at the ground. "Then maybe she would not have felt so alone."

"Actually, we could more in likely say the same Kento. We did not exactly keep in contact with her either. But if she stayed with any of us instead of sending her off with the others from the district of Dreams, then how would have things turned out?" Rowen reasoned when he looked at each one.

Kento raised his head, "I have no idea, that was then, and this is now. I do not know what you guys intend to do, but I am going to stay with Kaye, fate or not, and see this through all the way to the end."

Rowen, Sage and Ryo looked at one another and gave a nod as they looked back at Kento.

"You actually have a point Kento. Surprisingly enough to say." Rowen replied with a smirk.

"A point about what." Cye asked when he showed up out of nowhere.

Kento turned around and faced him, "To help Kaye fight what else? So, what did the senate say? Are they going to give an audience or what?"

Cye nodded, "They agreed, but they also told me they want all of us to be there." He walked over to Kaye and tapped her on the shoulder. Cye informed her of what the senate members told him. He lead her back to the others, "Well, we better not keep them waiting."

During this whole time, one of Badamon's spies watched as the six of them walked through the doors on their way to go and see the senators of the northern districts. The spy phased into the ceiling rafters and disappeared.

Badamon sensed his spy approaching and stepped out from the shadows. "Report." he listened to what his spy found out on his recon mission. "I see, I must inform Talpa and the other Warlords. The southern district members should be notified as well. I want you to go and tell them and then report back to me when you are done. But do not let anyone from the northern districts see you."

The spy bowed and vanished from Badamon's sight as he made his way to the other side of the district.

'So the five of them have been keeping this secret from the little dreamer. This might be able to be worked into our advantage. Talpa will be pleased with this news.' Badamon thought to himself as he vanished from where he stood.

Talpa and the Warlords were gathered at the main room in the Capitol. They sent their senators for their districts a day ahead of the emergency summit at the district of Trust. Talpa figured they would serve better there while he and the Warlords were having a meeting of their own.

"Anubis, what do you have to report about the bombing on the senate building at the district of Justice?" Talpa asked when he took his seat at the head of the table.

"Kane came to my home in the middle of the night and informed me the bombing went off without a hitch. But I found out when I questioned him further, he did not stay around to make sure the bodies of the senate members and the dream walker as well as the commander were dead or not. So it has me to believe they are still alive."

Cale smirked as he leaned back in his chair, "So you are basically telling us that your assassin failed in his job."

Anubis snarled when he whipped his attention towards him, "He was dealt with, but we still have an ace in the hole."

Dais was not so sure about this plan Anubis had going on, "What makes you think by keeping Talon in the prison will do any good? What makes you believe he will succeed where Kane has failed?"

"Because Talon is a much more accomplished assassin. He knew Kane was going to fail that is why he sent him out to bomb the senate building. He figured Kane would either come and report to me or get caught again by the commander." Anubis shot back.

Sekhmet thought about what was being said, "You are telling us that the whole prison uprising was only a ruse so he would be able to draw out the commander in order to talk to him alone for when he got back to his district when he came to question him?"

"Yes, that is exactly what it is. When the commander questions Talon then that is when he will make his move and take him out. With the commander out of the way, there will be one less obstacle we will have to deal with when the war is in full swing." Anubis replied sitting back in his chair.

"I have been wondering something," Cale spoke up when he glanced at every one.

"What is it Cale?" Talpa asked as he finally spoke.

"What if the dream walker or one of the commander's friends find out about this plan? No doubt they will try and stop it from happening." Cale asked.

"They will be handled when the time comes. Everything is being set in motion as we speak. The next part of the plan will start to fall into place. They will not know what is happening until it is too late." Talpa told them as his laugh echoed through out the room.

"Talpa," Badamon announced as he appeared in the room.

"Badamon, tell me have they been reunited and are they going to talk with the senators from the northern districts?" Talpa asked when he motioned him to approach.

"Yes, it is exactly as you said it would be." Badamon replied as he stopped at the table.

"Good, keep your spies in play, and stay with the plan until I tell you otherwise." Talpa ordered glancing at him.

"Of course," Badamon said as he vanished from the room.
