Chapter 134: Ask A Storm To Stop


    After heading back to Dreams and dropping off Titania, I stopped and argued with Alex and Kadence about going alone.


    "Why do you insist on going alone everywhere? You have an army of troops just waiting for something to do, and yet you still insist that going alone is the best option, why?! What is the point of having an army if you don''t use it!" Alex raged at me.


    "It is safer for me to go alone, then I don''t have to worry about them using someone against me. I don''t want to have to kill that many people, and it will be hard enough to collect all Elise''s sisters, without having to worry about them killing someone I care about. I don''t know if you have NOTICED, but I care about everyone here, and that is why I have an army; to protect you all from getting hurt!"


    I didn''t want to yell, but some things were not being heard, and I couldn''t figure out why the two women didn''t understand. Or maybe it was that they did understand, but decided that today was the best day to state their points. I knew they were worried about me, but it was a vice-versa situation, they don''t want me to go alone and be put in danger, but I don''t want anyone getting hurt.


    "Look, Hyde, we just don''t want you to get hurt, or something happens to you. You said it yourself, these people are animals and they will use every dirty trick they can muster!" Kadence told me.


    "And I will keep all that in mind, but I need you all to be ready to deal with the little shits I bring back. Titania, can you take Trem and go to Locknd, and pick up Tammon? I want you to build some holding cells that will be able to hold the monsters I''m bringing back."


    "What do you n on doing about my father?" Elise asked from behind me and I turned around to face her.


    "Oh, he''s dead. I was ready to put up with a lot of this time, but this is not one of them. What he has done to your sister is beyond criminal, and that''s just the tip. I will be making an example of the guy the world blessed you as a father. Speaking of worlds, I have been dying to ask, what year was it when you died and got transmigrated here?"


    "...It has been a while since I have thought about it. I think it was 534 AS."


    I stopped breathing. What the hell were those numbers? AS? There is no way she could be from that long ago or was it in the future? I sucked in air and was visibly disturbed enough to have Kadencee and put a hand on my arm.


    "Are you okay, Hyde? You look like that was bad news? What does it mean?"


    "What does it mean? I really don''t know, I was from Earth the year 2020 AD, but I have no idea what AS means. Can you help me out, please? What part of the earth where you from?"


    "Earth? I wasn''t from Earth, AS stands for After Settlement. My was a massive desert vacation destination, or it was. I was killed in the first Geostorm caused by a massive passing us, my family lived out on an unprotected oasis, so you can imagine what happened. Next thing I knew, I was a young girl, and I was in Acosta, everything from there is history." Elise exined.


    How does that work? I mean it''s not that far-fetched to think that aliens might get someone to this world, but I would have assumed that an alien would...I don''t know, looked different than me? I decided that there was only one way to find out.


    "Were you human, beforeing here? I mean, were you a different race before getting transmigrated?"


    "...No...but there were other races on the I lived on and there were other races that lived on differents," Elise told me, with a shrug of her shoulders.


    "I can''t do this right now, I have ten million questions to ask you, but I need to go deal with Acosta. When I get back Elise, you and I are going to have a long talk with Addel and Cable. They were both summoned so I want to find out what''s going on here and I need to talk to Gripton."


    There was a lot that I didn''t know and Grip was hiding from me, but the cat is out of the bag now! Part of me wanted to whip up to the moon and had a serious talk, but Perdi was in operation now and I had to finish this first. Then I will go and find out just how many other worlds there are out there.


    Titania was already gone to go find Trem and Alex had stalked off after them, mumbling about finding enough handcuffs. I turned back to find Kadence still waiting. I sighed, what would it take to convince her that I would be alright?


    "Kade, listen"


    "No, I''m not going to try and stop you, but you will wait until Nina gets here. At least she can be with you, that is better than nothing and she can get away toe to get help if you run into more than you can handle. I just want to know that you will have someone there with you, you don''t know what these people will be like. Not everyone will always just bow down to you."


    "I know that, and I will be ready for traps, and now Nina will be there to remind me, Right dear?"


    Kadence turned to see Nina approaching us from behind in her beautiful ck scaled dress.


    "Do you think you can keep him out of trouble?" Kadence asked as Nina approached.


    "Out of trouble? Hyde? Might as well ask a storm to stop. No, I will try to minimize the trouble he gets into, but trouble seems to like Hyde."
