I Don't Care

"Am I in trouble?" Aryax asked.

"I don't care," I answered.

There was a long silence after that when I felt the heat just simmering in me threatening to go off at any second. Finally I took a breath and looked at her.

"You aren't in trouble, but now there is the matter of finding Akane," I answered, "Just stay calm and don't do anything rash."

I walked over to Lexian and Nyx, but they seemed fine and getting to their feet. I stared a them.

"We have to find Akane before she does something stupid," I said flatly.

"Tris..." Nyx said, "About your goal....."

"We have other things to worry about at the moment....how to find a nobody when we don't know the world.....hm.....I lack that knowledge...."

I opened a portal to Amaterasux's room. She didn't look up but continued turning pages. Off to the side was a viewing portal of the hall I had just left.

"You are aware of the situation?" I asked.

"Yes," Amaterasux answered.

"Then tell me. Is there a way to track Akane?"

"Yes but it requires a possesion of hers and a large portal. Not even you could open a portal that would fit the size. You would need at least four nobodies to even hold the portal open when you use the spell."

"Is that all?" I asked.

"Yes," Amaterasux answered turning a page indifferently.

I opened a protal and walked back into the halway.
