As soon as I finished leaving the new residents in their desired quarters, the Leader's thoughts heavy with smugness entered my mind.
Triskix I have a favor, he started. Come to my office when you get a chance.....
When I get a chance? I asked. Yes only when you get a chance.... he answered, but as a scar opened up on my hand and forced a fresh wave of blood down my finger tips, I decided to portal there immediately.
"I will be back," I said calmly to Lexian, Xemmsur, and Nyx. "Head off to where ever for now." They all nodded.
I quickly opened a portal.
"Yes?" I asked stepping out of the portal scythe in hand. Blood was trickling down it.
"The machine to break into the faded world is almost done. All we need is a cetain part and a viable energy source. The part is what I need first. It's called a piston, and it is extremely hard to come by."
"I understand," I said calmly. "And you want me to find it."
"I have already found which wold it is located it. I just need you to pick it up the world is called The Highway (Cars)," the Leader answered. "I will allow you to chose your own party on this one, but at most only four people may go. Xerebus is planning to attack soon and I need an avid defense......."
I nodded silently, and for a second I felt the Leader's exhaustion. I flinched away from it in an instant. It was an unnerving feeling to have, and I no longer cared to feel it....or ever wanted to feel it again....and with it came a wave of hate.....
I shook it off after a moment and opened a portal wanting to get as far away fro the Leader as possible.
