CHAPTER TWELVE:

THE EYE

“Should I leave the room so that you and your team could speak in private?” the Indian asks politely.

“No. What you should do is tell us who you are and given that you’re a Quo, you might want to tell us why we shouldn’t kill you.”

“Aside from the fact that I saved your life?”

“Oddly enough, that alone doesn’t impress me,” Marcus counters.

“You must have had a hard life.”

“Yeah and death isn’t proving to be any easier.”

“So who are you?” Miku asks.

“My name is Eta.”

“Eta, why did you help us?” I ask.

“Not all Quo are evil and not all of us agree with what’s been taking place since the Godfather took over.”

“You mean the Sage?” Rio asks.

“Yes. I’m part of a faction that believes Angels and Quo can live together and flourish; many refer to us as the Foundation. Some think of us as a radical group but we’re not. We just want to find a way for the Quo and Angels to coexist.”

“Well, given that the Quo have killed most of us, I’d say your little faction is failing,” Rio snorts.

“Many Quo have been taken in by the Godfather. They’ve been fed lies. They are being taught that only one race can exist: the Quo or the Angels. But it doesn’t have to be that way. I can explain but my grandmother would do a much better job of it. Will you come speak with her?” Eta asks.

“Sorry, we’re a little busy. I don’t know if you heard but they’re gonna kill about ten thousand of our friends,” Marcus replies.

“The Foundation has known about it for some time. We’ve been putting together a plan to save as many Angels as we can.”

“And how would you do that?”

“We have a few members on the side. That’s really all I can say for now. Will you meet with us?”

“The last time we trusted someone, he blew up our world,” Marcus says bitterly.

“Then don’t trust me; trust the Mood Ring. I am certain he has read my Wave.” They all turn to Rio.

“Yeah, she’s telling the truth. And my name is Rio.”

“Where is this meeting?” Ameana asks.

“It’s going to held at—”

“—don’t tell us. Just send the info via Shadow Servant. He is to talk to me and no one else.”

“Certainly,” Eta says with a smile.

Marcus talks to her privately and makes arrangements to meet the Shadow Servant.

As soon as she leaves, everyone starts talking at once. And at once, Marcus orders them to hold the discussion until they get back to the hideout.

Once we are in the apartment, I look out the window and see a series of bright homes and beaches. I’m told we are somewhere in Brazil. It doesn’t matter where we are really. The fact of the matter is things are going to get very loud and very messy.
