A/N: Hello, readers! Welcome to a new chapter!

So Gov. Brown extended school closure until April 28th in Oregon. We love that.

Enjoy!


CHAPTER NINE: KAIBA IS KIDNAPPED

Sting rushed towards God Pegasus' guild hall with Lector flying right behind him. He had heard from a citizen on one of his missions that God Pegasus got attacked, and he came as soon as possible.

"Luke!" Sting said, bursting into the door.

"I'm over here." Lucas replied.

"Thank god you're okay. Is everyone in your guild alright?" Sting asked.

"There's some members with injuries, but they're not bad ones." Lucas replied.

A black haired man entered the guild. "I leave for three days and come back to this? What the hell happened?" Everyone turned to see Eric standing at the guild's entrance.

"Eric! You're back!" Alyssa shouted.

"What happened here?" Eric asked again.

"Former members of Lunar Fang attacked us without warning. Saying that they were going to get revenge on us. Whatever that means." A guild member replied.

Eric turned to where Nero, Rosaline, Izumi, Zoey, and Akame were. "I should've known not to trust you guys. It's your fault that God Pegasus was attacked!" Eric summoned Excalibur as he pointed it to them. Lucas and Atlas immediately took action and stood in front of them.

"Calm down, Eric! They had nothing to do with this!" Lucas shouted.

"They didn't even know that some of their former comrades were alive. So don't accuse them of something they knew nothing about." Atlas added.

Eric sighed as his sword disappeared. "Speaking of which, Eric where have you been for the past three days?" Drake asked.

"I thought I had another lead on Brandish. So I told Master Kaiba I was leaving for a few days to follow it." Eric replied.

"Nothing?" Alyssa asked him.

Eric shook his head. Alyssa only hugged him, knowing that he always got upset when he found out a rumor turned out to be false. Suddenly, Lex appeared on the second floor. "Everyone! The Master is gone!" Lex announced.

"Master Kaiba is gone?" Shiro questioned.

"That's impossible, right?" Drake asked. He then thought for a moment. "Unless..."

"What is it, Drake?" Fera asked.

"What if that attack was made to distract us while they kidnapped the Master?" Drake replied.

"It is possible..." Shiro muttered.

"What do they need Master for though?" Atlas asked.

Lucas looked at him. "That Atlas is what we need to find out." He replied.


The members of God Pegasus gathered around a table. Lucas was standing right in the center while everyone else gathered around him. Lucas set up a map in the middle of the table.

"Alright. My best guess is that they're keeping Master Kaiba at the old Lunar Fang guild hall." Lucas said. "Eric, Nero, and Alyssa. You three will be stationed here. This is most likely where Serverus will show up." Lucas circled a spot on the map.

"Rosaline, Izumi, and Ally. You'll be here." Lucas circled another spot on the map. "That's where Hana will most likely be stationed."

Sting smiled as he watched his boyfriend do what he does best. "He really is the best tactician, huh?" He thinks to himself.

"So that leaves Milan..." Olga muttered.

"Atlas and I will handle her." Lucas replied. "That alright with you, Atlas?" He asked.

"Yeah. It's been awhile since we've teamed up, Lucas." Atlas replied.

"Who will go save the Master though?" Rialle asked.

"If they need Master Kaiba, it's probably so that they can heal someone, and that someone is most likely Kazuo since the Master really did a number on him." Drake explained.

"Right. Fera and Drake. I'll leave you two in charge to rescue the Master. I don't know if he'll be guarded or not. So keep your eye out." Lucas told them.

"We can use one of my portals to sneak inside." Drake informed as Fera nodded in agreement to the plan.

"Everyone else, be on the look out and help anyone who looks like they need help." Lucas said.

"Right." Everyone agreed as they went on their way. Lucas walked up to Sting, who was still smiling at him.

"What's up with you?" Lucas asked.

"Oh, nothing. I just find it hot whenever I see you do what you do best." Sting answered, smirking as he did so.

"Stupid flirt." Lucas chuckled a bit. "Head back to Sabertooth. I know you guys can handle things on your own, but you need to be there just in case Milan decides to attack Sabertooth as well."

"Be careful, okay?" Sting said.

"Always am, babe." Lucas informed as he kissed his boyfriend.


All of the said members of God Pegasus arrived at the old guild hall of Lunar Fang. Some of the members decided to stay at the guild just in case they were attacked while the strongest members were saving Master Kaiba.

"Is everyone ready?" Lucas asked. Everyone nodded in reply. "Good. Let's go."

Everyone walked into the guild hall. Surprisingly, there was no one there to meet them. Or so they thought. "So, you finally showed up? Where's Sabertooth? I would've thought they would be here too." Everyone looked up to see Serverus looking down on them.

"This is not their affair." Lucas spoke up. "It's between us and Lunar Fang."

"Damn straight." Serverus said.

"Give us back our Master." Eric demanded, pointing Excalibur at him.

"You should already know that Lunar Fang doesn't go down without a fight. Your Master Kaiba caused Master Kazuo some life threatening injuries, and with his healing magic, he'll heal him back to health." Serverus explained.

"Master Kaiba would never do such a thing!" Shiro shouted.

"That's where you're wrong. He would do anything if his precious children were involved." Serverus stated.

"Why, you!" Drake yelled.

"Come and find us, God Pegasus. If you can." Serverus said, disappearing into a cloud of skulls.

Lucas smirked. "You have no idea what you started, Milan. You got involved with the Jade Tactician. Welcome to my war..."


A/N: There you go!

So, this will probably be a very short arc (maybe about four or five chapters? Haven't decided)

Mostly because I'm really excited to write about the GMG and the Eclipse Arc because that's when Lucas finds out about his origins.

Also, I know I'm going to get reviews on this so I'll say it now. I know that Mavis is known as the best tactician. But you must remember. She's dead. So Lucas is the best LIVING tactician (and also the fact that Sting doesn't know about Mavis so he views Lucas as the best)

Hope you enjoyed!
