The next couple of times Lea and Isa tried to spy on the facility went just about as well as the first time.

Fairly quickly could they conclude that the security was in fact, really good.

Two guards especially were the ones to watch out for! The big chested red haired man that had first caught them, and another man whom was just as big but with long black hair collected in dreadlocks and sideburns which Lea remarked he thought were very cool.

Those two… not only were they very strong, able to easily pick up both Lea and Isa without any problem just like the first time. They were also a lot smarter than they looked.

This time they were carried out by the sideburns guy whom elected to hold each under each of his arms as if he was walking around with two sacks of flour.

"We gotta stop running into each other like this." Lea commented in a teasing voice.

Isa didn't say anything, he had given up trying to tell Lea to shut up. The tall man also didn't look particularly amused.

"Say, I never even caught you guy's names!" Lea exclaimed. "And we hang out all the time now, that's a real shame! I'm Lea! Got it memorized?" he asked.

The man groaned as he reached the familiar entrance hall. "If it was up to me, you two would have gotten a good beating by now." he muttered. "Ansem how-ever insist we are not to punish children. Count yourself lucky."

"Wait, the big guy knows about us?" Lea asked.

The black haired man rolled his eyes.

"They probably do have to make reports." Isa commented. "Also we've been caught a total number of sixteen times now, of course he knows."

"Wow you kept count?" Lea asked. "Hah! That's Isa for you!" he grinned. "Wow sixteen? So we are like famous now?" he asked. "Hey! The name is Lea, make sure people memorize that!" he asked.

"Stop coming back!" The black haired man hissed as he let go and the two boys dropped down on the ground. "If I keep catching you, it will be the belt for you! Ansems wishes be dammed!"

"Please." Isa sat up with crossed legs looking up at the man with an unimpressed face expression. "If you dared going against Ansems wishes, you would have done so already."

The black haired man narrowed his eyes. "Stop doing this." he demanded as he lifted a finger. "Or there will be consequences." he stated as he walked back and closed the door.

"SEE YOU NEXT TIME!" Lea shouted after him at the shut door.

Isa glared at his friend.

"What?" Lea asked.

"You are the one wanting to go inside, and you're treating it like a game." Isa commented. "I'm doing this for you you know! This is humiliating!"

Lea halted looking at his friend.

Isa groaned. "I'm going home!" he stated as he stood up brushing dirt off his clothes.

"Isa." Lea looked up at his friend.

"You never think things through! That's your problem!" Isa exclaimed annoyed. Then he huffed. "See you later." he muttered stuffing his hands into his pockets as he walked away.

Lea looked after his friend as Isa's back got smaller and smaller, and he felt the guilt overwhelm him… Isa was right. Still though.. Lea looked up at the closed door.

If all of this proved anything, it was that something wasn't right, those noises doing the night… They were real. Something was wrong. So wrong.

Lea tried to be quiet, as quiet as possible as he snook across the city, this time though, the sky was dark, it was the middle of the night as he went from building to building, towards the center of the city.

Traversing at night though, wasn't that easy, at night there were no people to hide among, so the guards whom were just as many as in day time could spot you so much easier.

Isa had pointed that out earlier when Lea had suggested night time.

In day time, they could shout and people would come to their rescue, they could hide among crowds or pretend like they were supposed to be there. You couldn't pretend like that doing the night… Isa really was smart like that.

Still… They had only been trying doing day time! Perhaps if Lea tried now, at night, they wouldn't expect him to come.

He was almost there, pressing himself against the walls surrounding the castle did Lea take a deep breath… okay, he could climb over the wall, and sneak in the door!

Just then, a hand came from behind Lea, a hand, slowly reaching towards him… And then grabbed his shoulder.

Lea was just about to let out a high pitched scream just as another hand covered his mouth.

"Quiet you idiot!" a familiar voice sounded.

Leas eyes widened… It was… Isa!

"What the hell do you think you are doing?!" Isa seethed as he finally let go and Lea turned around.

"Isa… What are you doing here?!" Lea asked.

"What am I doing?!" Isa asked. "Didn't I ask you not to do something stupid?!" he asked. "And alone?!" he asked. "IDIOT! If you are caught sneaking in at night, you will definitely be tried as a criminal! And go in there alone?! How stupid are you?" he asked.

"But.." Lea halted. "I thought you didn't want to do this anymore, you said that.."

"What?" Isa asked. "I said what?"

Lea quieted and Isa exhaled.

"No, I don't think we should mess around with this." Isa flat out admitted. "how-ever, you clearly are not going to stop. And there is no way I am going to let you do this alone. Get it into your head, all right?" he asked.

Lea swallowed, then he sniffed as he smiled. "Yeah… I'm sorry. I got it memorized now." he stated as he wiped away a tear.

Just then, a great shriek was heard, from the other side of the wall, both Lea's and Isa's eyes widened, the scream was bone chilling, high pitched and filled with terror.

Wide-eyed the two boys looked at each other.

"Did… Did you hear that?" Lea asked. "Please! Tell me you heard that!" he pleaded.

"I… I did hear it." Isa admitted.

And relief washed over Lea as he sighed deeply. "Thank god!"

Isas eyes though were focused on the wall as he glanced upwards.

"It sounded horrible didn't it?" Lea asked.

Isa nodded.

"Isa, what do we do?" Lea asked.

Isa swallowed, then he turned to Lea. "Lea I..." he sighed. "The amount of time we spend on all the walls, I observed the guard schedules." he admitted. "All the doors and window, I know exactly where they are, I memorized the guards pattern. If you still want this… I can get us in." he informed as he looked up, meeting Leas eyes.

"You… You really mean it?" Lea asked.

Isa nodded. "How-ever, you have to do exactly what I say!" he demanded. "Swear to me Lea!"

"I swear!" Lea held a hand over his chest. "Isa I… Thank you." he swallowed as his eyes became wet ones again.

"I just hope we wont be regretting this." Isa sighed deeply.
