When Cithians Attack
parts.”I said.
    “Why can’t they just take them and get it over
with?!”Chaser said..
    “Because Skyrid has...It’s one...”
    “But, why can’t Skyrid just destroy
it?”
    “It can only be destroyed all at once and not
in parts. He’d have to connect all five parts before he does
that.”
    “Oh. I wonder who has the other
parts.”
    “I have one part and my brothers have the
others.” I said, looking at Chaser.
    “Then who has the fifth part?”Chaser
said
    “I don’t know.” I said, shrugging.
    “Maybe your dad has it.”Chaser said
    “That’d explain him panicking over all of
this.”
    “Yeah, he knows Furliceo is looking for him. He
doesn't want to endanger you.” Nester said
    “I have a feeling he wants all the parts and
not just mine.”
    “True. He probably needs all five parts.”Chaser
said
    “What for though?” Nester said
    “Maybe he wants to heal himself completely.”
Zane said
    “That would explain why he tried to kill
Mitchell.”
    “ He’s gonna be on a killing raid
until you give him all of the helios parts.”Chaser said
    “Exactly. If the Sayis Council sees that he
can’t be trusted he’ll no longer be a Sayis.” I said
    “You’re right. We’ve got to find him and bring
him to them.”
    “Chaser, you’re crazy! He’s more powerful than
we are. Plus, we don’t know where the Sayis’ live!”
    “Yes we do. In that forest by the Forbidden
Cemetery.”
    “That’s not where they live! It’s where the
Sword of the Sayis’ is !”
    “Then how’d you explain the man with five
dragon heads?”
    “ He was protecting the
Cemetery.”
    “Why?”
    “Because it’s forbidden.”
    “I think that he’s hiding
something.”
    “He may be right, Slyer. The Man looks exactly
like Gade. Just look at the comparison.”Jaren said, holding his
phone up.
    He had the same cognac eyes, the same crooked
nose and the same wrinkles in his face.
    “You’re right. He does . But, the Pedestals are
very hard to control!”
    “Right. I’ll be doing that part.”Nester
said
    “Okay. But, what if we get caught by the Hydra
Sayis again?”I said
    “We all attack him at once.”
    “That’s just your theory. We need to stick with
me fighting Pedro and Kodyack’s captors.”
    “Why Skyrid?”
    “Just in case I meet a Sayis and fight them.
They can take me to the Sword of the Sayis Council.”
    “True. But, what if you never get that chance?
What if neither captor is a Sayis?”
    “I’ll take that risk. And Today, Anna and I
will fight against both of them.”
    “What if the School Guardian that you fought is
the mastermind behind all of this?”
    “That’s not possible, Nester. She wears a white
cape, not one that’s black with green stripes.”
    “Yeah, but she might be a Bloodshed spy. How
else could they get into the Castle without getting
caught?”
    “It makes since. But, what if the second
kidnapper is able to change their human form like Pedro
can?”
    “Skyrid, only light sayis can do that.”Chaser
said
    “Why?” I asked
    “All people have the ability that allows them
to shape-shift while their good, but once their dark that ability
disappears, because it needs the light to live.” Nester
said
    “True. But, she could disguise herself to
deceive us all.” I said, tapping my fingers on the
table.
    “How?”
    “She could just be disguised as Pedro and trick
us all.”
    “No she couldn’t! We all know he’s
kidnapped!”
    ‘What if Furliceo is already here?” I
said
    “What do you mean?”
    “What if he’s disguised as the new teacher,
Jared Riker?”
    “Not possible, Skyrid.”
    “Actually it is if Jared starts acting all
weird.”
“Okay. But aren’t those powers only allowed while around
Ganters?”
    “What are Ganters?” Zane asked
    “They’re people without warrior powers.” Chaser
said
    “Now, Furliceo has broken a lot of rules
already. Who’s to say that he’ll stop now?”
    “No one. But can’t you just connect the five
parts and
