sniped. “We got by fine before she came, we can still manage without her.”
“Congratulations Balzar,” Cesar said jollily. “You have just been made second in command to Esmore, and will follow her tomorrow as she inspects out this Council group. You will basically be her lap dog and do every order she tells you to. If you don’t learn to keep your sass to yourself lad, after I’ve already warned you, you’re going to be punished like a child.”
“Pfft.” Yolo covered his snicker with his hand, as he looked away. Balzar mixed with rage and the urge to say something else. But at the hint of Yolo’s laughter Balzar turned on him.
“I am going to tear you apart,” Balzar growled at Yolo.
“Don’t you have to ask for permission first, lap dog?” Yolo laughed again. Both of them ran into the tunnels at heightened speed. Obviously, the two were very used to taking their rage out on one another.
“Tythian you seem awfully silent on the matter,” Cesar said crossing his arms and looking at Tythian expectantly. Obviously, Tythian was who Cesar went to, if in confusion or in need of advice.
“I think it’s a risk. But I also think it will pay off if it works and that we could use that resource. I agree, send her to inspect the Council group migrating. I will teleport them, only a mere half day run from the location. They can inspect and return by dusk tomorrow. It gives them a few hours to inspect and watch. If you take Lydia, she will be able to decipher whose group it is. She has knowledge of those who publicly have gifts and might be able to identify the group by that. In the meantime, I will see if I am still welcome within Fier’s council; although, it is very possible he might have already learnt of my true identity and my false alliance with him. If he has missed it then I still have an opportunity to learn of their next movement. I’ve already been gone for a day, perhaps my return won’t be so unexpected. And then let the little vampire go with Yolo, to learn of their weaponry and such. Maybe we will learn something, Yolo has not been able to report.”
After a long moment of thought, Cesar continued to rub his orange beard as he looked at me. “Do you even know how to act human, love?” I was taken aback by his question, yet it was the most logical question there was. “You raise your head too proudly, to be only a human. And they have that annoying thing, where their shoulders and back slouch. You need to learn that posture quickly and try to get a different air about you, one that says, ‘I’m actually a really nice girl and if you stole a piece of my cake, I won’t kill you over it,’” Cesar joked. I didn’t understand his reference, but to his advice and attempted to awkwardly slouch my shoulders. It was so discomforting that I thought my face was pulling such expressions that I couldn’t control.
Yolo clapped his hands, now coming back to the group with a smile on his face. “Kicked his ass,” he laughed, pointing back towards where he must have fought with Balzar. “It sooo pays off not being the baby of the brothers anymore. It always used to be me; impaled to the walls in joking spirit.” Tythian and Connor exchanged a certain gleam in their eyes.
“Never fret, the mastermind is now here,” Yolo gloated. “Have her pretend to suffer amnesia. There are humans within the compound who study the brain and characteristics of humans. I once had a friend who suffered amnesia. They didn’t recall anything about themselves, anything,” he emphasized. “We could call you Ellie. I could inform them that, I found you knocked unconscious with a wound to your head, it explains my absence for the last few days. I could say, I’ve been
