Aiden didn't waste any time and followed right into Jake's tracks. He could feel his heartbeat beating faster and faster as he got closer to the cave.
They quickly entered, and both Emma and Ava looked at them, wondering what was happening.
"Weren't the two of you supposed to be training?" Emma asked as she eyed both of them.
Aiden was about to respond but was cut short by Jake. "There was a change of plans."
His answer was short and extremely cold. One thing was clear: he wasn't in the best of moods and wanted this to get over with.
Emma knew better than to push by asking another question, so she stayed silent, giving Aiden some signs to tell her what was going on. However, he just looked away. Emma had no need to know about the system and its origins.
That information was hidden for a good reason.
