Chapter 8. The Mansion

“We should start with the grid. It's our best chance to get the Intel on Leigh. It will also give us the opportunity to check out the status of the other branches."

I looked at Kevan mulling over his words. “What is the grid?”

“The operations room, the center of it all. It’s located back at the mansion… my house.”

Cyn and I exchanged a glance while the others waited. “I agree, my Goddess. That is the most reasonable place to begin the search.”

Once reality set in, I nodded. "Okay, we'll start at the mansion." I looked at Eisha and the others. They all wore their Warrior outfits. Even Lia had on a borrowed suite Seima got her from Adara, one of the other female Warriors that still kept their distance from us. Which reminded me I needed to talk to the rest of the Warriors, we were a family now, and I didn't want any ancient walls between us.

Seeing my friends dressed as Warriors tugged at my heart, it went against what we were trying to achieve, and I suddenly wished the outfits Seima was making were done. She was staying behind with Cathair and the others. Only the Druid Court would come along.

"Alright, let us do this," Cyn announced; the determination in his voice was infectious. Everyone's expressions, and even their postures changed while they stepped closer to us.

We walked towards Kevan as my staff materialized. “Do you know how to use the portal already?” Kevan nodded. “Perfect, I need you to visualize the mansion just as you normally would, once the map appears on your skin I’ll connect with my magic to the stones and takes us all there at once. Ready?”

"Wait," Kevan said stepping closer. "Before we go, there is something you need to know. I'll have to take us to the outskirts of the mansion first, so that I can disable the security system. I designed it so that won't be an issue. However, I made it so that even if the cameras and alarms go offline, the sensors throughout the mansion will still be active, in case of intruders. There is no master reset for this, you know, in case any of us was forced to use it."

“Smart,” Art said, absentmindedly.

Kevan's startled gaze fell on him at the same time ours did. Art grunted, and mumbled something unintelligible as he realized he'd been heard. My gaze connected with Lia's and we repressed a chuckle, Art huffed clearly not amused. Even though Lia had finally forgiven Kevan a couple of days ago, and Art held no hate towards him anymore, I was sure his protective side was going to be particularly stubborn about this. My gaze returned to Kevan.

“Anyway, that will only give us a few seconds to get into the grid without giving them much of a chance to prepare, but they’ll know we are coming.”

"Should we be prepared for a fight?" Eisha reluctantly asked.

"Crapola. This is not going as planned."

“Not much ever does, My Goddess.
