Chapter 25 - The Sacred Tree

The 2 nodded and they ran off leaving Lloyd behind to deal with their captors, Lloyd placed his hand on their heads erasing their memories of capturing the girls however left the memories of getting defeated by them just for a little touch of irony.

He then headed off towards the one tree that came to his mind when it came to Westen, the tree they carved their names into after a long day of training and would sit beside it every night to relax and read the book "King of the Fire Dragons." The tree was a symbol of hope for them as it was also where they had decided to bury their parents. Jessica and Diana had made it to the tree, entered the secret passageway to the Resistance base with Westen hovering over a map of all Wolftopia, with markings of special buildings red for the libraries, blue for the houses, black for the factories and a big white X in the center where the Alpha Hall stood. As the girls entered Westen welcomed them and began to speak

"Ladies hopefully your trip was worth it." He claimed as Jessica chuckled

"You could say that again we got caught because Diana really needed that item of hers if it was for HIM."

"Hey! This item is very important to us and can lead to our victory if possible."

"What is this item anyway Diana?" Westen questioned as she pulled out a scroll

"It's an original law written by Aaron himself from the beginning of Wolftopia and it'll lead us to take over Black and his control regardless of what he says."

"You risked your life as well as Jessica's for a law written 400 years ago? As much as I appreciate your courage a simple law isn't going to change my uncle's mind if anything it'll piss him off."

"Oh come on this law can change everything and with the Altima-"

"Enough! Lloyd isn't here and won't be here I know you want him to be here but we have to do this in our own, I've looked for a solution to bring him back but couldn't find anything." Westen shouted interrupting Diana

Jessica and Diana stood there as Westen looked at them before looking back at the map and letting out a sigh,

"Sorry I shouldn't have shouted at you it's just hard knowing I could've done something."

"We all could've done something don't blame yourself and besides Diana and I saw him, Westen Lloyd is here!" Jessica proclaimed as Diana continues to explain,

"Yes we did and this law can do even more than just bring him back it allows him to take his rightful place as Altima that's why I went after it. The law is held in the Crest's library and it's not like your uncle knows that."

"I mean they're not wrong Aaron had a few ideas when it came to making that law but then had a vision from the Curse that led him to make it." Lloyd proclaimed as Westen looked up with a smile on his face before running over and hugging him

"I thought I'd never see you again, how are you here? I mean you're banished there's nothing to bring you back."

"That's what they led you to believe trust me I know that I'm more than allowed to come back. At least according to Aaron." Lloyd stated as he pointed as his head smiling

"Well welcome back and thanks for saving the girls and I'm glad that law is still something that can be used to this day but I think you need to talk to someone who's still down about losing to you."

"Ah ok where may I find him?" Lloyd asked as Westen led Lloyd to a door
