Era Of Authority 41 A Proposition?

James nodded and said with a smile,"Yes, you. Or is there anyone with a name Greg? If there is n.o.body, then I would be appreciated to speak with you in private."

Greg looked at Pete and after seeing his nod, he turned back and walked toward James.

"Thank you. Then please follow me." said James and left the backyard with Greg following him from behind.

Everybody else remained motionless after sawing what have transpired. Just after a moment of silence did Pete speak up.

"Well, it seems everything is okay, so we will meet in the next segment. If you have any questions, you can come and find me freely."

After saying that, Pete turned around and started to walk away.

When everyone went away, Dorothy and Isla stood there still with an embroiled face.

"Sis, why did Dad come for? Did Greg do something wrong?" asked Dorothy anxiously.

"I don't know. He didn't say anything about coming to New-Was.h.i.+ngton. I got suprised too." answered Isla.

"Should we follow them? Maybe if there is something, we can help him." said Dorothy as she was looking at where Greg and James dissapeared to.

After pondering for a bit Isla nodded.

"Sure. Let's go." said and the two girls started to walk where James and Greg walked away.

Inside one of the Mansion's room James was sitting behind a table. In front of him was Greg, also sitting.

After a moment of silence, James started to talk.

"Long time no see. How is your life going in Hope Academy? Do you like it so far?"

"Yes and it goes smoothly, if I can say that." answered Greg with a smile.

"I see, it's good to hear. Well, let's get to the main point. I would like to ask you something." as James was saying this, he took out a doc.u.ment and showed it to Greg.

Greg took it over and opened it. As soon he looked at the pictures and the papers in it, his face stiffened, but only for a second.

"As you can see, these are adats from an unknown man in a black hooded suit. Where did he show up first, what route did he chosse to go and what he did after he appeared out of nowhere." said James calmly as he looked at Greg.

Greg looked up and asked,"And what should I do with this?"

"Well, if you turn a page you will see it by yourself." answered James and point at the doc.u.ment.

Greg did what he heard and after turning a page he started to read.

In there, everything could be found that he did in the last 2 and a half month. When did he depart from home to Lissabon, when and where did he take a pause during his trip, what did he do and even his little trip to Durban was mentioned there.

Everything was in there on by one.

"As you can see, I collected some little information about your last 2 months." said James.

"LITTLE? IT'S ALMOST LIKE SPYING ON ME!" shouted in his head Greg and after calming down he asked,"And what should I do with these informations?"

"What I want to say is that, where you went, the man in black appeared. And what is more his trace disappeared not long after France's border, where we met." said James as he bent a little closer.

"Plus, when you visited Durban the man appeared again. This couldn't be just a coincidence, no?" asked James curiously.

Greg looked at James and asked,"And your point is?"

After a short silence James pointed at Greg and said,"My point is that either you are a helper of him or you know where he goes and want to find him for some reason."

"Huh?"

Greg looked at him stupefied and thought,"So he doesn't even suspect me as the man? Haha... How lucky I am."

Seeing that Greg doesn't want to speak, he asked,"So tell me, which one? I want to find him also, so maybe we can help each other."

Greg hearing this didn't know what to say. First he thought over the pro and cons of each situation.

If he says that he helps, than there is a big possibility that they will continue to monitor him nonstop.

However if he says that he is searching, than there is a high chance, that they will leave him alone until he find some evidence.

After a moment of silence, he looked at James and said,"I want to find him. Maybe he can help me with my mother's death, so that's why I want to find him."

James hearing this answer got a bit disappointed, but after a second later his face turned back to serious and asked,"Okay, let's say you want to find him. But how do you know where he will appear? He is like a ghost, appears one time here than dissapear in the next."

"Well...it will sound stupid, but I'm listening to my sixth sense. It tells me where is high possibility to find him." said Greg, because this was the only thing he could come up with.

James hearing this didn't know what to react. Sixth sense? Who would believe such an idiotic excuse. Only a stupid would believe something like this!

"Well, if you don't want to say, how you can track his moves then it's not a problem. Okay, look. I have an offer for you" said James and came closer to Greg.

"Okay, if you don't want to tell me, I won't force you, however I have an offer for you. I can give you as much money as you want, but in exchange, I want information whenever you find one. It can be even a small one, I don't care, until it had some use. Deal?" asked James showing his hand.

Greg looked at the hand and thought,"Well, it's free money for me, so I just need to make him think that I give him real clues."

"Okay, Deal." said Greg and shook James hand.

After this deal the two talked a bit more about the school and the exams, and after 30 minutes later Greg stood up and said,"Thanks for everything, but now I need to go. Have a nice day!"

"Sure. And don't forget, if you find anything, call me instantly." said James with a smile.

Greg bowed and walked to the door, grabbed the handle and opened it.

Suddenly two body fell inside the room with a loud sound. Of course it was Isla and Dorothy.

The two girls looked up and seeing that they got busted they just smiled.

Greg looked at James and after turning his gaze to the girls he asked,"Why are you here?"

"Well...Hehe"

The only thing they could say was this.

[Between Dimension]

In a place, somewhere in the s.p.a.ce and void, a gigantic building was floating.

It was so huge that not even it's end could be seen nor its top.

Inside this huge building a 100m long table were there and around it were some who were sitting.

Naturally, they were all G.o.ds.

There were more than 100, yet the last 10 were sitting in a half circle in the end of the table.

The man with it's bident was sitting in the fourth, while next to him in the third seat was a human like thing, which body was covered in darkness.

"Hades, what do you think. Is he really alive and found a human, who could be really his successor?" asked the dark covered man.

"I don't know. However, if it's true we need to do something about it. Don't you think Erebus?" asked Hades as he looked into the darkest eyes he ever seen.

"Kehehe!! Don't worry. My chosen and his are there to look after him, so there's nothing to be afraid about." said a blood red looking man with an Egypt hat on his head and in a mummy clothing. He was sitting on the sixth seat.

"Osiris, we know you have chosen already, but did you forget that, that human has already beaten yours two times already?" asked Hades.

"And what if--" Osiris was about to start an argument, but suddenly a crack formed before the middle seat. Out of it, a muscular man with huge dragon wings and snake like eyes walked out.

"Shh! Chaos is here." said someone from the G.o.ds and instantly everyone around fell silent.

Chaos after sitting down into his seat, he looked around. A while later, he opened his mouth, which had dragon like teeth in it and with a cracking and scary voice he started to speak...
