Chapter 54
Anubis couldn't sleep. It was only midnight and for the first time in over 400 years, he felt lonely. 'Why did I do that?' He thought angrily, 'I gave up my only student and partner all because Cale couldn't keep his blasted mouth shut!'
Getting up from his bed, Anubis called his sub armor and walked to the kitchen for some cold steamed rice, his favorite comfort food. When the Warlord of Cruelty reached his destination, he saw Dais sitting at the table, drinking some tea. "Couldn't sleep?" The Warlord of Illusion asked.
Anubis nodded.
Dais looked down at his tea, "it's only been four hours since we let them go, and I really wish I could make sure Melissa's okay."
"Well," Anubis sighed, "we can't tell Talpa or do anything without Cale opening his big mouth."
Dais smashed his china teacup onto the table, shattering it into a million pieces. "I hate this!" the older man yelled, "I can't go near her, I can't protect her, and I can't be there for her!"
"And I can't be near Jazalyn," Anubis sighed, taking a seat next to his brother-in-arms, "but unless we can come up with a system to watch over them and protect them, there's nothing we can do."
Dais smiled, "Good idea, I think I'll be able to create a system where we can keep an eye out on our partners with out that Hypocritical Child and Wildfire's bitch from ever noticing."
Anubis smiled, "So, let's hear what you have in mind."
Ryo noticed everyone was asleep, 'Good,' he thought, 'now I can try again.'
A hand reached out and stopped Ryo in his tracks, "Going for round two?" Kento asked.
"Yes," Ryo whispered, "but don't tell anyone else."
"Fine," Kento smiled, "let's go."
