Mikayla strained to better hear their lowered voices, trying to piece together everything she'd heard. Was he a spy of some sort? That would be ludicrous and beyond dangerous considering how high up he was in rank. Biting her lower lip, she crawled to the back of a chair closer to the railing in the hopes she could hear them better.

“Tell Stefan to take a break. Lie low for a while,” Sidious said.

Agnus nodded as he sat on a stool. “He said he was headed to Daego to wait for you.”

“Good.”

“Are you still considering taking Mikayla?”

What? Mikayla thought. Taking me where?

“Yes. I think time alone away from here, away from all the reminders of what is going on would be a good idea.”

“I agree. Time away would be good for both of you. You're too stressed out, and I'm worried about you.”

“I'll be fine.”

“You always say that,” Agnus said with a sigh. “I can tell by looking at you, you're far from fine.”

“Let it go. Besides, I still have to handle the burial of all Earth's dead in Dallas before I leave.”

His words were barely above a whisper, but Mikayla heard them. Her gut clenched. Dead? She closed her eyes against the pain and anguish that threatened to send her spinning. All this time, she'd tried not to think about people dying, but deep down she knew they had. To hear him say it made it so much more real.

“What have they been doing with them, so far?” Agnus asked.

“Mass graves. There's so many, that's the only thing I could think of. If you leave the bodies lying around, stench and disease will take over.” Thoughts of him taking her away were forgotten as anger took over. She heard the words “mass graves” and snapped. Glancing around, she found an empty glass and grabbed it. She stormed down the stairs, her only intent to hurt the man who had caused her people so much pain -- caused her so much pain. Halfway down the steps, she stopped and hurled the glass in his direction.

“You son of a bitch!”

Sidious ducked to the side, the glass barely missing his head and shattering on the counter behind him. His startled expression watched her warily as she ran to a table and picked up another glass, throwing it with all her might in his direction.

“What the hell?” Agnus said as he ducked as well.

“Damn it, Mikayla,” Sidious snapped, as he dodged yet another glass.
