Max flinched as he squinted his eyes open. The bright light giving him a headache instantly. The hot, hot sun beat down ontop of him, instantly making him hot because he was wearing a black t-shirt and dark clothing. Max soon came to full consiouness and noticed he was in the desert and also noticed that his hands were handcuffed behind his back, not a good sign.

"Hello there." a voice said in Max's ear from behind him causing Max to jump in fear.

Nicholas walked in front of him and squatted down, making him the same height as Max. Max looked at him in a range of anger, tired and scared manner.

"What do you want from us?" he asked breathlessly.

"Where's the Grinolth?" Nicholas asked.

"why do you want to know?" Max asked him.

"That's none of your buisness." Nicholas shot back.

"Then knowing where the Grinolth.....is none of yous." Max answered.

"Ok, fine, just make me go and have to find out the hard way." nicholas said in a sense of pity then place his hand on top of Max's head.

Max gasped as if someone put a ice cube on his skin. He gasped as he felt the child enter his brain. Max closed his eyes, his mind and head beginning to hurt.

"Stop resisting Max. I know what your trying to do. I know your trying to put it back in the back of your mind, trying to hide it from me, protect it. But you can't, and you won't." Nicholas warned him.

Max then kneed him in the stomach and kicked him in the face. Nicholas fell to the sandy ground backwards, sand flying on his cloths and face. but as fast as lightening he was up and grabbed Max's chin.

"Stubborn as a mule. Always have been, always will be. But if you ever want to walk again, I suggest that you don't kick me again." Nicholas warned in a low eery tone.

"Sir" a voice came from behind Nicholas.

"Not now, I'm busy." Nicholas said getting annoyed and not taking his eyes of Max's eyes.

"Kavair is ready." she told him.

Max watched a smile slowly stretch across his face. Max shivered as he watched the woman leave.

"Besides the Grinolth, what else do you want from us? You got us off the planet, you have control of it, why are still looking for us?" Max asked.

"Kavair wants his lover and wants you, dead." Nicholas shared.

"Leave the others alone." he warned. nicholas laughed.

"I don't take orders from you anymore." Nicholas said yanking him up. Max was forced to bent over so he was Nicholas's height as he dragged Max towards a cave, where the others were waiting.
