For the next several days, Geo decided to keep his mouth shut for Keira hasn't been attending school for a while, but he was still worried her condition.
"Geez is her sickness really that bad?" Luna said during their homeroom. "If it's a fever, then it should be gone by now."
"Maybe its chicken pox", Bud suggested. "You don't go to school at with that kind of disease, but it only last's a week."
While the two rattled on their conversation, Geo slipped away in the school roof. He was use on seeing Keira on the place she liked best, but now, it wasn't the same without her.
Then a voice interrupted him, "what brings up you here?"
It was Jack. He was leaning over the cherry blossom tree looking straight at him.
"Nothing", Geo said, but in truth he was upset.
"You miss her don't you?" Jack said jokingly. "Let me guess, you have this feeling that it's gonna be the end of the world without her."
"No and no "he said with an annoyed tone on his voice. Now Jack's thinking that he has feelings for her. "What makes you say I like her?"
"I didn't say anything about that topic. I just asked if YOU missed her."
"A little, it's a bit too quiet without her."
"She's already quiet and you think it's quieter without her? Boy, you've got serious issues."
"Shut up."
Then suddenly, they heard a scream coming from the first floor. Rushing immediately to where it was, they saw Luna, Zack and Bud being held hostage by a black looking knight and a hunter transcode.
"Are you sure this will lure her to our trap?" asked the hunter. "I mean, how can we be sure that she's already ok?'
"Just trust me", said the knight.
"What are you doing? Let go of us!" Zack yelled as the hunter gripped on his arm.
"Who are you trying to lure?" Luna said terrified.
"Quiet you pipsqueaks!" The knight told them." Whether you like it or, you'll be the bait."
"Get your hands off them!" Bud said.
"Yeah? Then whose gonna make us?"
Bud held out his hunter VG and then yelled, "Transcode, Taurus fire!"
Both the hunter and knight were not surprise by the transformation, they knew it was coming.
"Well, I think we just need the girl and the kid with the glasses", said the hunter. "We don't the fat one anyway."
"Let's just go." Before Geo and Jack could help, the fiends were already gone. But before they left, the knight said to them" If you want to see your friends again find us in an old abandoned facility." Then they left a black card as the access key to their base. "That key will help you find our base."
"What do they want anyway?" Bud said as he undid the transformation. "And why'd they say they'd use them as bait."
"They want Keira", Geo said. "And I bet they're members of Dark Lotus."
"Then, let's go after them!"
"We can't risk bringing Keira!"
"Why?"
Geo stopped; he promised Keira and Solo that he would never tell anyone about their secret.
"Well?" Bud stomped impatiently as he waited for the answer.
Knowing there was no other choice; he ran towards the elevator and went straight to the roof top.
"You just gave him a bad time", Jack said to Bud as Geo was out of sight.
At the roof top, Geo was surprise to see Keira and Solo.
"We heard what happened", she said. "I know it's a trap, so we decided to go with you."
"But, are you sure you can handle it?" Geo said with concern. "I mean, you haven't fully recovered yet."
"Don't worry, she's a strong one, she can't easily be taken down," Solo said. But he too was concern about her safety.
"We'll leave immediately", Keira announced. "Dark Lotus probably has some nasty tricks up their sleeves if we let them wait. Bring Jack and Bud along; we'll need all the help we need."
As the group went on their journey, they were all uncertain about what was gonna happen. All except Keira, she was waiting for a moment of payback.
