It was the night and the full moon shined brightly in the sky. Gallows was flying in the air alone. He looked at the moon and grumbled, "I'm so bored. There's nothing interesting going on," he continued flying around for a while. He continued flying around while looking for anything interesting. He also knew that he couldn't cause any major or minor problem on Earth or it could ruin his ambition. The darkness dragon continued flying around in search of something. He sighed loudly, "This world is so boring."

Chapter 118: Consequences of Mischief

Gao's family and the dragons were watching the news.

"-The current poll for the elections has been completed. As you can see, right now, Tenchi is in the lead with 55% of the poll, followed by Hinako with 20% and 15% for Elf. If the elections were today, Tenchi and his party would won the elections.-"

Drum grunted, "And that means that we would have been condemned to live away from the Earth. We cannot let things go like this."

"Calm down Drum. There is not a long time before the elections come, but you are going to change this poll so Hinako wins the elections," Tenbu told the angry dragon with his calm voice.

"There is around a month and anything can still happen," Takashi said.

"If someone is taking care of the Buddy Police Force, we still have to stop Azi," Halberd remembered them.

"What is his plan anyway?" Drum asked. He looked at the news and grumbled, "There is not a lot we know about it, only that he got Tasuku."

"We still don't know where he really is," Gao said.

"Maybe we could just search on the new where Kyoya lives?" Hanako suggested.

They looked at her without saying any words, just before Gao face palm himself, "We forgot about that."

"Maybe the internet knows the answer," Drum suggested.

"I'll see with my friends if they already tried that," Gao started texting his friends.

"Even so, maybe they have a second unknown location," Tenbu warned them.

"It's better than nothing," the boy replied.

Shido was eating his breakfast and looked around, wondering where his buddy was. The boy was nervous, knowing that when he couldn't see the darkness dragon, it only meant that he was going to scare him in one of his prank. The boy finished eating and sighed, he was a little nervous that it wasn't a school day, because it was the moment where he could have a break from him.

"Where is he?" he looked around just in case.

His father was observing his son and noticed how nervous Shido was when Gallows wasn't around, you're wondering when he will strike. Poor you, he thought when he put his hand on his son shoulders, "Don't worry too much about it. He won't forever torment you."

The boy replied, "He's just waiting for the perfect moment. When he's gone, it's often for that," he avoided his father when he thought of the other moment, but it's not the case since Azi Dahaka didn't ask us for a meeting. Shido remembered when Tasuku joined them as a Purgatory Knight. It was the last time they had a meeting and their plan didn't move on right now, when will we move to the next phase of the plan? He wondered.

"What is it?" his father asked.

"N-nothing! I'm just wondering when Gallows will strike," he replied. He finished eating and said, "I have homework to do."

He walked in his chamber and left Magoroku alone. He started eating before he went to work, Soon. Just hang in there my son. I will do everything to ban the monsters from the Earth. Gallows won't hurt and use you any longer.

Shido didn't lie to his father as he started his homework. He was getting a little behind with Kyoya and Azi plan to take power over Japan. It was an opportunity to catch up with them and it will distract himself from overthinking about Gallows. He advanced in his homework and eventually wondered if his buddy was doing something on his own.

Gallows yawned loudly as he flew back towards the house of his buddy, "There was really nothing to do."

He entered in the house when his stomach started grunting, "I'm hungry now. I want something spicy," he heard no one replying and grumbled, "I guess his father isn't here, but he got school off."

He searched for his buddy and found him in his chamber, doing some homework, "This is so boring to do," he whispered as he observed Shido. He wondered what he should do when the boy turned around and spotted him.

Shido watched him a little confused when he saw him, "Gallows? Why aren't you even trying to hide?"

The darkness dragon wondered what he meant when it came to him, that he could have scared the boy when he wasn't expecting, but didn't do it, "It is starting to get boring to always scare you. It's predictable to see what you would do," he replied as he crossed his arms, "I' hungry now. I want something spicy."

The boy sighed, knowing that he couldn't say no to Gallows or he would be in trouble. He gave something for his buddy to eat and continued his homework after that. He found it a blessing that the darkness creature didn't bother him more than that and wondered if the world was about to turn upside down or what.

I hope it is soon over. When the plan will be a success, Gallows will leave the house and I won't have to endure him any longer... Even if it is getting less bad now, he admitted.

Baku was in the bus and was still thinking about what his cousin told him, "Dammit. Why did he have to ask me such a thing?" he grunted in frustration. He felt a little lost and confuse, wondering how he should answer the suggestion of his brother, Gao is getting ready to face up everything that is coming to him and our friends to fight Azi Dahaka and win the elections against Tenchi, but can we succeed? While he told me that I should... he stopped thinking about it. His cousin was family, but would he leave his friends behind when they were going to need him the most. He didn't know what to do.

"Is something wrong?" Axia asked, sitting by his side.

He turned towards his buddy and replied, "It's nothing."

"What is it?" the blue dragon asked with a small smile, "Because nothing often means a lot, especially when it's a lie."

Baku didn't reply and turned his gaze away from Axia.

"It's easy to know when someone lies. I don't know why, but it's easier to know when your kind is lying. You are so expressive," he answered.

"How obvious was I?" Baku asked, knowing that denying it was completely useless.

"As obvious as me saying that I don't want to hug Drum," he replied. He looked at his buddy more seriously, "Care to share with your buddy?"

Baku sighed, "It's family Axia. I don't want to share when..."

"It's family, so there is no problem," he replied with a small smile.

"It's not about you, if you are thinking that," he replied.

"I'm not thinking that. Your parents would have openly expressed their distain to me if they didn't like me. I'm pretty cute after all," he giggled.

"I just don't know what to do Axia," Baku simply said before checking his cellphone. He checked the poll for the election and grunted, "And Tenchi is still winning."

"But we know he is doing something sinister to win Baku. We just need to prove it," the blue dragon encouraged him.

He lightly smiled and said, "What is the next spellcard you want to create Axia?"

Magoroku arrived at the Buddy Police Headquarter. When he entered inside, he noticed the new janitor from the back and thought that he looked familiar, but didn't focus more than that. He entered in the elevator.

When the door closed, the janitor took his mask off for a second and said, "I thought he would recognised me. Thank the gods he didn't."

Commander I continued his duty and waited. He knew there were people around. When he saw no one, he entered in the elevator to change floor. When the door closed, Stella entered inside. Commander I avoided looking at her and said nothing as the elevator raised.

Stella said nothing for a few seconds and checked around. She realised they had some time before the door opened and there wasn't any camera in the elevator, "You don't have to hide Commander I. I recognised you."

The man sighed and replied, "You are sharp Stella. I was sure you wouldn't recognise me."

"Don't worry. I won't say anything," she told him. She frowned, "The Buddy Police Force is getting in a bad state. Gao and his friends recently quit the Buddy Police Force because it was corrupted... And they are right. Why are you disguised as the janitor?"

"I..." he decided to tell her the true, "I'm looking for proof that Seiichi and Magoroku are trying everything to end the Buddy Police Force. Maybe also proving that they are working for Tenchi and hiding everything illegal they did like with Tsukikage."

"Let me help you," Stella said looking at him, "I will do everything to stop Tenchi and everything they are doing. I am working inside, so I can easily help you."

"It's too dangerous. If you are found out, you can lose your job at best," Commander I protested.

Stella frowned at him, "The future of Japan and maybe the world is at stake here. I think everyone has to put themselves at risk. We all have to do something."

Commander I didn't protest, she was right, "Fine. We need to find information's about what is going on and anything that we need to arrest them before the elections."

"I'll do it right now. I will find a way to talk with Tsukikage," Stella said.

Commander I nodded and they waited for the door elevator to open. When it opened Stella and Commander I walked out and separated to different direction.
