Chapter 29 - Devastating news.

Fiora is now at the border. She is attacked by the border patrol, a rocket flies towards her, she dodges it and boosts her speed. The Libertan border patrol couldn't catch her in time. The sun starts to rize behind her making a ferocious look, from the ground everyone will see a demon dragon flying towards the capital.

The rattling noise of the metal of the dragon made it more and more scarier. Those who saw this type of dragon feared war was coming. The dragon speed was above the mech's speed, but had many weaknesses. The dragon is a good scout, but bad attacks and resistance. Theodore's army notices the dragon near the capital as they return from their mission.

Theodore was badly injured, his hand wasn't pouring out blood because the medics from his army temporarily took care of the wound. They arrive at the castle and Theodore is brought to the medical operation room of the castle. They all wait outside, and look at the dragon coming down.

The dragon is now at ground level. Everyone was ready to attack. Fiora gets out of the dragon alongside her servant. "Where is Theodore!" She screams. She takes off her mask and her facial expression sends a message to everyone in front of her that she means no harm. Rinehart gets out of his mech and looks at her.

"He has been badly injured, Bloodhearths are strong individuals so I don't expect him to die." She gets closer to Rinehart. "You are one of his most trusted men right? Can I see him?" Her questions came with a shake in her voice, she nearly started crying. "I stole this to come here, to see him. I'll wait here until I can see him."

Her body shakes from every inch, Rinehart takes her hand and brings her inside. She walks a long corridor and sees Searpine, Fiora doesn't know who she is but she is tied up to a metal bar with handcuffs made out of black dusker. Behind Seraphine is a window where they can see the operation going on

"How bad is it?" She asked. "I shot him in his left arm and threw a black dusker knife in his abdomen. It's easy to say I nearly killed him." Seraphine said. Fiora's expression turned from shaken to mad. She places her hand on Seraphine's neck and tries to suffocate her. Rinehart takes her off Seraphine. "Theodore wanted her alive."

Fiora looks at her. "I don't know why he saved you. But I hope it's a good enough reason." A tear comes out of her left eye. "Does his clan know?" Rinehart shakes his head. "The more people find out, the more destabilizing Highland will be. Theodore is the only political figure that everyone either fears or respects, we can't lose him."
