"Cye, what's gotten into you?" Sage asked sternly.
"Nothing." Cye replied shortly.
"It doesn't look like nothing to me." Sage said.
"You know what Sage, I think that it would be a good idea of you would just back off." Cye replied.
"I know that you're concerned about Kento Cye, we all are, but this isn't the way..." Sage said as he started to lay his hand onto Cye's shoulder.
"I said, back off Sage." Cye warned as he hit Sage's hand away.
"Sorry Cye, but I'm not going to back off." Sage replied as he looked at him.
"All right, you've asked for it." Cye said as he quickly rushed at Sage, pinning him to the wall with his forearm against his throat.
At that moment Ryo and Rowen walked by, "what the...Cye? What are you doing?" Ryo asked as he and Rowen ran into the room and pulled him away from Sage.
"Let go of me! I said let go!" Cye warned as he flipped Ryo onto his back.
"Cye?" Ryo said in disbelief of what he just did.
"I warned you." Cye replied as he glared at him.
"Hey, what's with all of the commotion? We could hear you all the way upstairs." Kaye said as she and Mia ran over to them.
"Kaye, Mia stay back." Rowen replied as he threw a quick glance between them and then back to Cye.
"I'm going out for some air." Cye said as he walked past them, and then slammed the door behind him.
"Cye?" Kaye said, as she was about to go after him.
"Kaye don't, just let him be." Ryo replied as he was getting up.
"Ok then would someone tell us what just happened?" Mia asked as she looked around at them.
"Actually we're not too sure of what happened ourselves Mia. Ryo and I were just walking by, and then for some reason Cye had Sage pinned to the wall." Rowen explained.
"Ok Sage, what do you have to say?" Mia asked as she looked over to him.
"I was coming inside, when I saw Kaye and Cye talking. So I just stayed there waiting for them to finish their conversation." Sage started to explain.
"So basically, you were listening in." Kaye replied as she crossed her arms.
"Hey, it's not polite to walk in on peoples conversations." Sage said as he looked over at her.
"Polite or not, it's still doesn't dismiss the fact that you were listening in." Kaye replied as she was starting to get a little angry.
"Hold on, ok everyone just calm down, I'm sure that no one wants a repeat performance of what just happened." Rowen said as he stepped in.
"You're right Rowen, I think that Cye had a good idea, I'm gone." Kaye replied as she started to go towards the back door.
"Kaye, where are you going?" Mia asked just as she was about to walk out.
"Don't worry Mia, I'm just going to go for a walk. I just need some time to myself, I'll see you guys later." Kaye replied as she walked out the door.
"Oh yea that went well." Sage said sarcastically as he rubbed his throat.
Meanwhile...
"I can't believe I went out on Sage and Ryo like that. What was I thinking? I warned them, but they didn't listen. Why didn't they listen to me?" Cye wondered as he was staring into the lake.
Not too far away...
"There he is, I should have known that he would be by the lake." Kaye thought as she smiled.
"Hey Cye!" Kaye said as she ran over to him.
"Kaye? What are you doing here? Cye asked in confusion.
"The same as you I suppose, trying to calm down, and get my thoughts together." Kaye replied as she looked over at him.
"Are you sure that you should be out here with me? What makes you think that I won't turn on you too?" Cye asked as he looked back at her.
"I'll take that chance." Kaye replied with a smile.
"This is just too easy, two birds with one stone," a voice said.
"Who said that, who's there?" Cye asked as they looked around.
"Why don't you look down, I'm right under your nose." the voice replied as an image began to show up on the lake's surface.
"Lieah, I should have known it was you. Where's Kento?" Cye asked angrily.
"He's safe with me, for now. Let's not talk about him for the moment, I want to talk about you." Lieah replied with a smirk.
"Me? Why?" Cye asked as he glared at her.
"I'm impressed by you Torrent, I didn't know that you had it in you. Because, of what you two pulled off when she was in her astral form. As well as that little stunt that you pulled off just recently." Lieah replied with a small laugh.
"I don't know what you're talking about!" Cye said.
"Oh but I think that you do. That was your light blue energy that somehow bonded with hers. I want to know how you managed to do it." Lieah replied curiously.
"What do you mean?" Cye asked in annoyance.
"Oh come now, don't play coy with me. I know what each one of your energy's looks and feels like from the last time that we fought. So that's how I know it was you who helped her, and gave me this!" Lieah replied angrily as she gestured over to the scar on her face.
"That's a good look for you, Lieah." Cye said with a smirk.
"I would have to agree, it's an improvement." Kaye replied.
"Silence! It would be wise and try not to make me angry. Remember, I still have your friend." Lieah warned.
"Yea, we know. So what do you want? We know that this isn't a social call." Cye replied as he glared at her.
"Hold it, before you say what you want. Show us Kento!" Kaye said as she glared at her.
"You're not exactly in any position to be telling me what to do. But I suppose that I could just this once be generous, and grant your request." Lieah replied with an evil grin, as with a wave of her hand Kento's image showed up in the water.
"Hey lover, why don't you take a look up, you have visitors." Lieah said as she snapped her fingers to get his attention.
"Kento." Kaye said as she went down on her knees.
"Kaye...Cye." Kento replied as he reached up to them.
"Aw, what's the matter? You can't reach them, can you?" Lieah taunted with an evil grin. "Now, since I've kept my part of the bargain, you will at least be courteous enough to hear me out."
"Fine, what do you have to say?" Cye asked as he glared at her.
"Cye, take Kaye and get away from here! Whatever you do, don't listen to her!" Kento warned.
"Be quiet!" Lieah said as she shot a current of electricity through him. Kento yelled out in pain and then fell to the floor, breathing heavily.
"Kento!" Cye exclaimed. "You'll pay for that, you bitch!"
"Ooh, it looks like I hit a nerve." Lieah taunted with an evil grin. "Unfortunately, there's nothing that either of you can do to help him. And that's just too bad."
"All right, that's enough you have our attention. Leave him alone, and tell us what you came here to say." Kaye said as she stood up.
"Tomorrow, my brother and I are coming for a visit, and we'll bring along lover boy." Lieah started to say.
"Tomorrow? Why not now, why is tomorrow so important to you?" Kaye asked in confusion.
"You mean that they didn't tell you?" Lieah replied with an evil grin.
"Tell me what?" Kaye asked in confusion.
"That tomorrow is the anniversary of when I was imprisoned. Besides, if we brought him now, there would be no sense of what I would call dramatic irony. Wouldn't you agree, Torrent?" Lieah replied as she kept her eyes on him.
"Cye, what's she talking about?" Kaye asked as she looked over to him. Cye looked away from Kaye's gaze.
"Unless..." Lieah replied as a smile crept a crossed her face.
"Unless, what?" Cye asked as he snapped his attention towards Lieah.
"You two want to do that energy merge that you did earlier, then I might, just might consider bringing him now." Lieah replied coldly.
"Nothing." Cye replied shortly.
"It doesn't look like nothing to me." Sage said.
"You know what Sage, I think that it would be a good idea of you would just back off." Cye replied.
"I know that you're concerned about Kento Cye, we all are, but this isn't the way..." Sage said as he started to lay his hand onto Cye's shoulder.
