After a long pause of silence, I finally explained, "The Fangs have offered us a truce."
"A truce?" Jordan echoed.
I nodded. "Their leader want to meet with us in a location to discuss the terms. The others have agreed to go, but I don't like it."
Jordan quizzically looked at me. "Why? If there's a truce, then won't it end the fighting and they'll be peace? What's wrong with that?"
Instead of giving her a direct answer, I asked, "What do you know about the Fang's leader?"
Though I didn't answer her question, Jordan did answer mine. "Only rumors," she replied. "No one knows the identity of the Fang's leader, save for a few Fangs. I heard he's a mysterious man who took over the Fangs a few years ago and ever since then, the Fangs have been more organized and lethal. Why do you..." Her voice trailed off as her eyes widen in realization as to where this was going. "You've met him, haven't you? You know who the leader of the Fangs is."
Once she said that, I clenched my teeth and curled right hand into a fist, trying to keep my rising anger at bay. I wasn't angry at Jordan, I was angry at myself. After my anger subsided, I swirled my face so I would staring off into space. "Yes, I do. That's why I don't want to go," I sighed. "Unfortunately, I know what he's like and I know how he works."
Jordan was silent for a few moments before asking, "Have you told anyone about this?"
"Other than you, no one. I haven't even told the Riders. If I did, they would suspect me of being a spy for the Fangs," I answered. I then, looked back at Jordan with sincere eyes. "Promise me you won't tell anyone about this conversation."
After a moment of silence, Jordan nodded. "I won't tell anyone..."
It was about 1:00 PM. All of us were ready for meeting with the Fangs, dressed in our usual uniforms that was made up of our jackets and pants, and we mounted our respective bikes that were placed right in front of the entrance to the base. The only one not on his bike was Jason, who was standing at the entrance gates. "Remember guys, if you're having trouble with the Fangs, your watches on your wrist have a homing device that will lead your bikes to you, and hopefully get you out of there."
When Jason said those words, I looked down at the black watch on my right wrist. It was one of Jason's inventions he made recently, but I guess we never gave them a chance until now. 'Good thing Jason's still on our side,' I thought to myself.
"Take care of yourselves," he told us.
"You too," Jack nodded at our technician.
As the gates of the base opened, we all placed our helmets on our heads and revved up the engines on our bikes, riding out of the base and onto the paved road. We continued riding on the road, which lead away from the base and onto the abandoned highways. Many minutes passed as well rode into what appeared to be a city, but it wasn't just any city. It was... 'Home,' I recognized the city with widen eyes.
Once entering the city, we first arrived at the downtown district, which was filled with Fangs roaming the place. I would have attacked them under normal circumstances, but I remembered of the truce offer and if I attacked now, our one chance of having a normal life would be gone. 'Keep calm, you can do this,' I repeatedly told myself as I rode my bike through the city.
We soon reached our destination, a red building about a story high with Fangs guarding the entrance, and after parking our bikes outside, we all dismounted them and walked up to the entrance. To be honest, I was expecting the guards to stop us and make us give up any weapons we might have had, which would have been trouble for me. Why? Well, Jack ordered us to leave our Rider belts back at the base, but since I didn't trust the Fangs, I brought my Rider belt with me, hiding it in my jacket.
Anyway, the Fangs guarding the door simply moved to the side to let us through as we all saw the door slid open. We were at first hesitant, but Jack was the first one to swallow his fear, stepping into the building and we soon followed him. The door closed behind us, leaving us inside a dark room with only one beam of light focusing upon a rotating chair which was turned away from us. I could see a person's legs near the chair's own, so I assumed someone was sitting there. "Hello?" Lina greeted.
"Hello," the person in the chair greeted back with a deep masculine voice as he swirled around.
When the person swirled around in the chair, we all could see who it was: the leader of the Fangs. The leader was a man, with a brown trench coat over his black shirt and pants. He wore black gloves and shoes on his hands and feet respectively. Though we could see his black, wild hair, the Fangs' leader wore a red mask over his face with two holes that showed his blue eyes. "Welcome Riders," the Fangs' leader greeted. "Why don't you take a seat?"
The Fangs' leader snapped his fingers and more lights came on, revealing the entire room to be a board room with a long table. There was a chair on one end for the Fangs' leader, and four chairs for us. "Please, take a seat," the leader of the Fangs offered as he gestured to the chairs.
We all looked at each other, hesitant and suspicious of our host's behavior, but nonetheless, we all approached the chairs. "Well, what do you know? It wasn't a trap," Jacob whispered to us with some humor in his voice as he sat down.
However, I didn't feel like laughing as I kept my guard up at all times because we were in the Fang's territory, a place where they would easily overrun us. I didn't want to us to get captured by them or even killed, and I didn't want to risk that. While the others sat down, I remained standing, which made the Fangs' leader look at me with his familiar blue eyes. "Is there something wrong?" he asked.
I couldn't help but snarl at him, replying, "A lot of things actually."
The other Riders were probably staring at me with wide eyes or glaring at me, wanting me to sit down, but I ignored them for my focus was on the Fangs' leader. "Oh, and what's that?" he asked.
"One, suddenly inviting us to your base," I listed. "Two, offering a so-called treaty after months of fighting. And three, having us come to you to leave our base unprotected for an attack. Am I forgetting anything else?"
Much to my displeasure, the Fangs' leader let out a chuckle that echoed throughout the room. "You certainly are cautious," was all he said.
His amusement only continued to annoy me as he glared at him. "Just want do you want?" I demanded as I pointed the leader of the Fangs. "Answer me!"
"Darren, stand down!" Jack ordered, making me look at him to see him standing from his seat.
I didn't want Jack to get involved in this so I warned him, "Stay out of this!"
"Darren, stand down," Jack ordered again, this time stressing the last two words.
Seeing how Jack was the leader and how I was probably making a fool of myself, I gave into Jack's orders. "Fine," I huffed as I sat down, my eyes not leaving the leader of the Fangs.
Once he saw I was in line, Jack turned his attention towards the Fangs' leader. "So, what do you want?" Jack demanded. "Why have you brought us here?"
"To make a truce, of coarse," he replied as he crossed his legs. "The fighting between us has been making us lose valuable resources, and I can't afford that."
I rolled my eyes when the Fangs' leader spoke the words 'valuable resources,' but I said nothing as they continued. 'This'll take a while,' I told myself.
