"Hey! Get me out of here!" Kento yelled from his cell.
"Aw, lover has a temper." Lieah taunted.
"If you don't let me out, then I'm gonna bring this whole place, wherever we are, down around our heads!" Kento warned as he glared at her.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you. Especially, if you want to keep your precious one alive, and you know from past experience that I always make good on my promises." Lieah warned as she glared back with an evil smile.
"What did you do? Tell me, what did you do?" Kento asked angrily.
"Sorry to disappoint you, but it wasn't her, it was all me, me, me, me, and well...me! You should have seen their faces when they found out that I was you. It was priceless!" Alex replied with a smirk.
"Why you..! Get over here so I can ring your scrawny neck!" Kento said angrily as he reached through the bars.
"Ah, no I don't think so. I'm not that stupid. I remember the last time that you had your hands around my neck. I had a hard time breathing for a whole week." Alex taunted with a smirk.
"Are you done yet?" Lieah asked as she was starting to get annoyed with her brother.
"Aw, come on sis, let me have a little more fun. Please?" Alex pleaded.
"You're starting to annoy me Alex. Now go and make yourself useful." Lieah replied as she motioned him to leave.
"You're no fun! Fine, I'll go, but on one condition." Alex said before he left.
"And that would be?" Lieah asked as she crossed her arms.
"That I get a chance to torture him some more later." Alex replied.
"Fine, just go." Lieah said.
"You mean it? I can torture him any way that I want, and you won't stop me?" Alex asked.
"Yes, yes now would you just leave?" Lieah replied as he finally left them alone.
"He definitely hasn't changed. He's still as crazy as you, maybe even crazier." Kento said as he stood back from the cell door.
"What can I say, he's family. Now what do you say that we get down to business." Lieah replied.
Meanwhile...
"How's Ryo?" Kaye asked quietly as she stared out the window and watched the sun set.
"He's feeling better. Kaye, how are you? You haven't said anything since we left the hospital." Cye asked as he approached her.
"Cye, it's my fault. It's all my fault! I should have listened to you when you told us that it was a bad idea to split up. If I wasn't so stubborn, then Kento wouldn't..." Kaye replied as she was fighting back tears.
"Kaye, stop. It's not going to be any good if you're going to beat yourself up over what happened. That's suppose to be my department, and I'm not going to let you take that over without a fight." Ryo said with a small smirk as he walked over to them.
Kaye gave a small giggle, and then wiped her eyes. "That's better, now I know that Kento wouldn't want you to do this to yourself, right." Cye said as he laid a comforting hand onto her shoulder.
"Yea I guess that you're right, but how are we going to get him back if we don't even know where he is?" Kaye asked in confusion.
"I know that you don't want to hear this." Ryo started to say.
"Ryo no, don't say it." Kaye replied as she shook her head.
"Ryo's right, I'm sorry Kaye, but it looks like we are going to have to wait until Lieah comes back in a few days." Cye said as he squeezed her shoulder.
"I know, but I can't just sit around and wait!" Kaye replied as she grabbed onto Cye's hand and lowered it down.
"Hold on a second, there maybe a way." Cye said.
"Come on Cye, are you going to tell us, or what?" Kaye asked anxiously.
"What's the one thing that you can do alone that none of us can?" Cye asked in a mischievous tone.
"Cye quit teasing. There's nothing that I can do alone that none of you..." Kaye asked as her eyes went wide as she finally realized what he was talking about.
"Cye, you're a genius!" Kaye exclaimed in excitement as she gave Cye a big hug.
"Hey! What's going on in here? We could hear you guys all the way upstairs." Rowen said as he and the others ran into the living room.
"Sorry Rowen, it looks like you're not the only genius of the group." Cye replied as he gave a big grin while he stood up.
"You guys mind telling us what's going on? And what does Cye mean that I'm not the only genius here?" Rowen asked in confusion.
"Cye figured out a way that I could find out about Kento." Kaye replied as her eyes lit up.
"You mean by dream walking." Mia said with a grin as she looked over to her.
"You got it, but the only way that I can pull it off, is if someone is sleeping, or if they're in some kind of meditation. Unless..." Kaye replied as she crossed her arms and leaned back onto the wall.
"Kento is definitely not the type to meditate, that's like saying Sage will let his hair go long." Rowen said with a smirk.
"Yea." Sage replied as he nodded in agreement, and just then Sage's eyes went wide and glared at Rowen. "Hey! Wait a minute; no one talks about my hair like that! Come back here Rowen!"
Laughter filled the room as they watched Sage-chasing Rowen around the mansion. "I just hope that Cye's right. So far as we know, Lieah and Alex don't know about that fact about me." Kaye thought as she snuck out of the room and headed upstairs. Cye noticed that Kaye was no longer in the room. He had a pretty good hunch of where she went. So he went upstairs, and opened up the door that leads to his and Kento's room, where he found her standing over by the desk holding a picture.
He then quietly walked over to her, "hey..." Cye said quietly as he gently laid his hand onto her shoulder. Kaye not paying attention was startled and dropped the picture that she was holding. Luckily Cye caught it before it hit the ground.
"Whoa there, ok that's it, you're switching to decaff." Cye said with a teasing grin as he handed the picture to her.
"What? No way, that stuff tastes terrible! So forget that." Kaye replied as she grinned back.
"Kaye, how come you snuck up here?" Cye asked as they sat down on Kento's bed.
"I didn't want to ruin everyone's good time. Besides, I needed to get something to act as an anchor for when I'm going to dream walk." Kaye replied as she stared at the picture.
"An anchor? Wait a minute, you lost me. Since when do you need to have an anchor? You've dream walked many times without one, so why is now any different?" Cye asked in confusion.
"Because this time, I'm going to an astral level, and I've never tried it that high before. So that's why I need an anchor. I've heard it being done only once before, but..." Kaye replied as she kept her eyes onto the picture.
"But what? Kaye, what happened to the one that walked on that level?" Cye asked.
"He became lost." Kaye replied quietly.
"Lost, how?" Cye asked in concern.
"I'm not exactly sure." Kaye replied as she stood up and walked out to the hallway.
"Kaye don't, it's too risky!" Cye said as he ran out to the hallway and grabbed onto her arm.
"Hey, what's with the yelling?" Ryo asked as he and the rest of them ran upstairs.
"Cye, he's worth the risk." Kaye said as she looked into his eyes.
"Whoa, wait a minute. Time out! What risk, what are you two arguing about?" Rowen asked as he looked at them in confusion.
"And why are you holding that picture?" Sage added in confusion.
A few minutes passed by in silence, then Cye decided to fill the rest of them in on the conversation that he and Kaye had not too long ago. "Kaye, Cye's right it's too risky. You can't!" Mia said in concern.
"It's like I told Cye when the rest of you were running up here, that he's worth the risk. I have to do this." Kaye replied with that determined look of hers that they all knew too well.
"You're going to do it, aren't you." Ryo said as a statement rather than a question.
"Yea I am." Kaye replied with determinate tone in her voice.
"Aw, lover has a temper." Lieah taunted.
"If you don't let me out, then I'm gonna bring this whole place, wherever we are, down around our heads!" Kento warned as he glared at her.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you. Especially, if you want to keep your precious one alive, and you know from past experience that I always make good on my promises." Lieah warned as she glared back with an evil smile.
