Xenon knew he was going to try and not get into trouble, he didn't want Ace to go through the same thing twice.
Ace looked at Xenon as saw that he was lost in his thought's, he had no idea what he was thinking about. The thing Xenon was thinking about is how to not cause trouble, since he is a trouble maker. Since Ace is the king of leaving first, he stood up and walked back inside.
Xenon stayed outside and stared into the distance, will anyone notice that he's gone? He did make a big scene on his first day in Spirit Lake
When Xenon got inside, Ace was already asleep on the bed. He didn't look as mean sleeping, maybe just a little bit. He sat on the rocking chair that was on the end of the bed, got comfortable and fell asleep.
Around an hour later.
Ace, "Hey wake up."
Xenon was half asleep. He said something but you couldn't understand him.
"We need to get going now if you don't want to get caught."
Did something else happen?
"Inspectors are coming soon so we need to go before they come here."
That sentence made Xenon wake up fully. They better leave soon.
Ace packed two bags with supplies and headed out.
Xenon wore a long black cloak, to hide his body from the sun. This made him look kind of suspicious. Before they could leave Ace asked Xenon if he could trust him, and Xenon replied yes. He then took Xenon by the arm and they teleported to a stable. So this is the power of a ghost general. Ace took one horse (so that no one gets suspicious) and sat in front, with Xenon riding on the back.
"Lets go!" Said Xenon enthusiastically.
They left the base, and started heading towards the borderline forest.

It felt like they had been riding forever. They weren't getting any closer to the forest, Xenon did not expect that it would take this long, all he was thinking about is getting home.
"STOP" yelled a voice from behind them.
They turned around an saw a ghost soldier.
This was not good.
Was the same thing that happened to Anne, going to happen to Xenon?
