Vincent wasn’t surprised that Roman was surprised by him. Given what Vincent had done in the past, this truly was an odd thing for the current emperor to do and say. Though, Roman would then ask how he planned on getting their father back. Vincent smiled and spoke to his brother. [b]“You let me worry about that, brother. You just play your part for the people and when the time comes, I will let you know when everything is in place.”[/b] He said closing his eyes.[b] “Now, I do believe you have a meeting with our dear grandfather. Best not to keep him waiting.”[/b] He said. ----- After arriving back in Stigma, they were in the workshop and met by Karolina. She informed them that they must leave due to the fact that the Viera were already there and hat they demanded Grant, Harris, and Emiri for the safe return of Reia. Silently, Wesley cursed at everything. It just wasn’t right. There was nothing going their way and now even though they had to head to Archades, he just hated every bit of this. He just didn’t understand why any of this was happening? Well, that’s not true, he did and he hated it so much. [b]“Yeah, it seems we’re going to need to go there.”[/b] WEsley said, [b]“but Archades is a long way from here. How will we get there in time? I know these bikes are fast, but will they get us to Archades in time?” [/b]Wesley asked. ----- It was time. They needed to get going. Jaakuna didn’t want to leave his good friends, but he had to. He would exchange hugs with Wendy, Lannit, and the seven kids. Savayna and Isaiah would do the same. As soon as they did that, the group would head off, getting to the stairs. They would peak over to see who was on top of the stairs and right as they did, they saw Judge Francis. Jaakuna cursed to himself. The luck train just wasn’t rolling for them. And that’s when Francis spotted them. Francis calmly walked down the stairs and pulled Jaakuna and the others from the view of the guards. [b]“JAckson, what are you doing here?”[/b] He said, [b]“Isaiah, why are you with them?” [/b]He then looked to Savyayna. [b]“Okay, what the actual fuck is going on!? “[/b]Francis had question after question. [b]“Francis, been a while.”[/b] Jaakuna said laughing. [b]“This isn’t a laughing manner. If you were caught by anyone else, they would have slain you or took you to your brother. “ [/b]He said. Jaakuna looked down and then back up to Francis. [b]“I’m here to revive my father.”[/b] For the first time, Francis had nothing to say cause he was dumbfounded. [b]“What are you talking about?” [/b]He asked in shock and disbelief. [b]“Your father died by your hands.” “Actually, it was my father that Jaakuna accidentally killed. Grandfather orchestrated the entire thing.”[/b] Francis couldn’t believe what he was hearing, never mind the fact that Hamut did it, but how exactly did he do it? [b]“You’re going to have to give me more details.”[/b] He said. Jaakuna didn’t know how to say it but to say it. [b]“Father’s soul was trapped in Giruvegan by Grandfather and after talking with him, he is not in me and I’m on my way to get it back to him.” [/b]When Jaakuna said that, a sharp pain took form in his left arm and this time it reached all the way to the left side of his neck. [b]“Okay, that makes no sense, but what else? “[/b] He asked. [b]“Father’s body is in the Draklor Labs. I think Grandfather or Vincent had it stashed away there for safe keeping.”[/b] Jaakuna said. When Jaakuna said that, Francis was just in mortal shock. To think that something of this magnitude was happening. For some reason, Francis believed them and even stranger, he would help them. [b]“Okay, I’m coming with you. You’re going to need my help.” “What about my grandfather?” “Jackson, just shut up and follow me.”[/b] When they let Francis lead on, he used his status as a Judge to bribe the guards and anyone who dared to stop them, that included the citizens, and other such people. He would lead them to the point of the Draklor Labs, to which he would open it up for them and the rest was up to them. [b]“I hope you succeed, Jackson and the rest of you be careful. I don’t know what will happen, but I trust you four got this.”[/b] Francis said as he departed in the aircab. The group entered the Draklor Labs, not knowing what was to happen.
