As Saya stepped into the crypt something crackled under her feet. She lowered her gaze and found the broken shells of her cocoon. Walking in deeper she was looking around for Hibiki and Kanade. When Saya held a flashlight into the corner, where she had last seen them, she gave a loud cry: The broken shells of one of the cocoons where lying on the ground, while the other one was gone. Her heart beat faster. He had been here before them.
Exited voices from the outside reached her ear but she didn't give attention to them. All she could do in her terror was leave the crypt and give way to Kai, so he could observe the findings.
"You are looking for them, aren't you?" The man obviously had waited behind the crypt and know came to the front with a self-pleasing smile.
"Hikaru!" Kai rushed over to him in rage and tried to grab his collar and press against the wall. With only a quick hand move the Chevalier stopped his attempt by throwing Kai to the ground.
"It's not worth to try", Hikaru laughed, "I am much too strong for you to fight me."
"What have you done to Hibiki and Kanade?" Kai shouted, while Monique pulled him back to bring more distance between the two men.
"Don't worry, they are safe with me. I only was afraid, that in the crypt, without any protection someone might come and harm them."
"You are lying", Kai shouted, "You are the one who will harm them!"
"Why would I? I am a Chevalier and my life is dedicated to guard my queens. Isn't protecting your nieces what you want too? So we basically want the same thing, therefore we should work together, don't you think so? Have you thought about my offer, Kai? "
His anger rose and his voice became louder: "Whatever you've been planning, forget about it because I'm not playing along! You are a liar and I want you to stay away from my family."
"Kai", Hikaru come closer, "don't you know what chance you are missing? Don't you want to safe her wife?"
For a moment Kai fell into a silence which was disturbed by Moniques confused words: "What does he mean by saving me?"
"Don't listen to him!" he replied in a low voice, "He is a liar."
Hikaru ignored what Kai said and went on: "Saya, your blood could save people. Let us work together to reach this."
Saya shook her head: "Do you seriously think I trust you before you told us where my nieces are?"
"I already told you they are safe."
"And where?" Kai shout was such loud, that Mei started crying. "Bring them back and leave us alone, forever!"
"You fools! I give you one last chance to join me, otherwise you won't here from me again."
"I think you heard our opinion and you should be able to understand it", Kai returned.
"That is such a pity, because I can not let other chireptorean alive, who might be a danger for my deer queens."
Before Saya could think about his words he disappeared behind the crypt and instead a girl dressed with nothing but a long grey coat jumped towards her. In her left hand she held a dagger, in the right one a gun, which she started using immediately. Her eyes where opened widely and glowing with madness.
