4. Dan occupied his self looking after Kelly, while the rest talked over the strategy. Jo sat with them even though she had no need.
5. Dan soon joined the discussion. The mistress spoke softly “Okay, Jo and Kelly will stay back to keep them safe” she may have spoke soft be she had a tone which made you want to do what she said. “And Claire you will also be back with Jo and Kelly for protection, as for the rest of us we will be the ones fighting” she smiled as if it was a happy topic.
6. Hemera butted in “we also have to help save the prisoners, correct?” Hemera asked. The Mistress gave a quick nod. Holden stared over at her, “what prisoners?” He asked having not been informed.
7. Everyone turned to Jo expecting her to leave, she sat there not taking the hint. The Mistress spoke again, “Holden we have reason to believe that one member of your family and another man are being held by the other clan” she said quickly hoping to ignore the topic.
8. The conversation soon ended when the Mistress would not tell anymore. Holden sat with his family and Claire. “A family member, who could it be?” He asked Jo thinking she would know, Jo sighed “I don’t know Holden but you’ll soon find out” Jo said slowly.

13. The woman pointed at the Mistress and spoke “I’m guessing that’s you, anyway you have been asked to meet the abandoned warehouses in Downtown” she paused “if you fail to do so, the prisoners will be murdered” she said bluntly.
14. The woman turned around and headed off into the forest again. Everyone stood still and awaited the Mistress to speak.

17. Dan nodded in the Mistresses direction. He looked at Claire and nodded. Dan turned to Jo, “You may sleep if you wish” he said sitting down. Jo took Kelly and lay on the floor to sleep.
18. “We will set off today, in a few minutes towards Downtown” the Mistress said. “We will save the prisoners and escort them back here, depending on what injuries they have will help us decided whether they can fight” the group split off pre-paring to leave.
19. The Knight and Hemera made their way to a pillar and faced each other. The knight spoke, “you know what happens when we go to the warehouses” he said. Hemera shook her head, she may have been smart but had not been told very much.
20. He felt bad but told Hemera, “someone dies” he said bluntly. He whispered close to her “the Mistress will be killed its in the prophecy”, so we must lead Holden to victory” he said. Hemera hugged him hoping he would cry, his very own sister would be murdered.
