We didn't say a word for the rest of the flight. We stayed like that till the familiar jerk of the jet moved us down to the ground and to our unknown fate.

~

"I'm gonna be sick."

"Mmmmm... just not on my shoes."

I turn my eyes to look at Trevor. He was showered, bandaged, and collared like myself.

"Haha, wow you're so clever."

"And your sarcasm is obvious."

I huff as I sit on my bed, parallel to Trevor's.

Here's a quick update. We got off the jet, drove to this Dracul base their boss has been staying at, and are now about to be presented to him or something of the sort. Honestly, this whole thing is sort of sketchy, but hey, I'm the captive. I don't make the rules.

"Ok, so you have an idea of why he wants to see you, but why me?!"

"You broke the law, right? There's your motivation."

"Wrong. I asked the same question to Polly and she gave the impression that she didn't know either. Plus, my crime was major, but, referring to previous cases like mine, I should have been punished and so forth. Tracking me down and presenting me to the big man in charge isn't normal."

"Well, you have been successfully evading his forces for years now. I wouldn't be surprised if he asks you to join the Dracul. Essentially... if you trained properly and completely master the Black Flames, you could very well rival Axel himself. Also, Riri, your not normal ."

I gave Trevor a pointed look.

I mean, come on people! This guy is famous for beating, then becoming the best of the best. On the other hand there is me: the person who got blindsided by some snotty electric punk and a giant rock dude.

Is there really any competition?

"At the very least, he'll make you tell him how you've escaped through his fingers in the last decade and a half. It will defiantly help him with other cases like yours in the future."

..Oh gosh...

....I do not like the sound of that.

"Ok, ok, you've made your point. Hope you're happy."

Trevor turned his face to the ceiling and muttered,"Finally, we agree on something."

"Well, excuse me for asking questions and figuring out our situation."

And with that we fell into a comfortable silence.

And waited.

~THIRTY MINUTES LATER~

"Vous écume!"

("You scum!")

I screamed this while I mindlessly hit my fist on the locked door.

"Doing that won't help."

I turn from the door and address the tattooed covered man.

"Says the guy who's cool under pressure! I can't help it! This kind of waiting freaks me out and I want to get the impending doom over with!"

"Well if you j-"

The door swings open at that precise moment t reveal two very familiar people.

...just bloody fantastic.

"We meet again, Rirailia! Did you miss little ol' me and Boris? It's ok, I know you did."

Standing in the doorway was the electric freak and stone wall in the flesh.

I step back from the duo to inspect them. Xander had no scars on his face?! Must have had a healer fix him. No ordinary, conventional medicine could completely erase my burn marks. His hand still had burn marks on them, though...Good. Boris was the same as when I first met him. Well...except he wasn't stone. Still not a big difference, though.

"Nice scars, Xander. You know, chicks totally dig that."

"I know. That's why I kept them."

"Enough chatter. Axel wants ta see ya both. Move out."

With a stern face, Boris clamped a meaty hand on my arm and half dragged me down the hall; Xander pushing Trevor with as equal roughness.

It didn't take long till we stopped at a heavy wood door. Most likely a study of some sort?

Boris opened the door and we both get shoved in, too occupied with our lack of balance to notice our surroundings.

"Little flame..."

I freeze on the spot.

Only one person has called me that name.

My full attention slides onto a figure behind a heavy oak desk.

" You."
