**_Yawn_**
" What happened....." Chinonso asked in a groggy manner.
He squinted his eyes awake, stretching his pincers and ominous tail to their extreme which gave off snapping sounds similar to ones bones rubbing against each other.
«[You feel asleep my liege]» The system reminded him.
" Oh I see..." He said, neither to bothered or willing to ask why, instead he turned towards where he remembered Zara was and fortunately she was still there laying about.
' Thank God she's still there, thought she might have wondered off again...'
" Well we better head back, From what I recalled system said, Things really aren't as simple as they seem"
" Might as well return to plan out our next steps together..." he said before turning towards his not so little sister.
" Zara!, get up where leaving!" He yelled.
Zara on hearing his voice quickly sprung to her feet, making her way towards him with an excited expression
" Where are we going!" She asked.
" What do you mean where are we going, We're clearly heading back to Ebube and Kosi " he snapped back.
Her bright eyes instantly dimmed same as her excited look.
" No more food?" She asked with saddened eye's.
" What do you mean food, haven't you eaten enough yet‽" He exclaimed with fright, Zara just shook her head which made him feel bewildered.
' Just how much can you eat?!' he wondered.
" Fine Fine, you'll eat later I promise, but first we have to head back ok?" Chinonso let out a helpless sigh before saying.
On hearing her brothers words, her scaled tail started wagging left and right, with joy.
'Yayy, more food!, yummy yummy food in my tummy ^^' she beamed to herself.
Seeing her joyous face, Chinonso couldn't help feeling pitiful for the creatures within this forest for only he knew just what was to come.
With that being said the two of them started heading back from whence they came, By following their earlier footsteps it wouldn't be long before they returned.

Meanwhile as the duo made there way back, within a dark spacious room filled with countless computer systems, technical appliances and a multitude of silhouettes who were busy working steadily.
A lone figure with a stern expression, clothed in military like attire with several badge's adorned on his uniform stood alone, with his back as straight as a ramrod, unlike the busy figures he seemed to be the one supervising the whole situation.
" Sir!, Sir! we have a problem!" A stray figure suddenly sprung up from his working station before making his way towards the man in haste.
He stood at attention the moment he arrived Infront of the man, his hands placed in a salute form, maybe it was due to the man's menacing aura or his incredible position, the worker didn't dare show any form of unprofessionalism.
" What's seems to be the matter?" The man replied calmly, his brows raised slightly.
" Sir!, We've just detected strange traces of a group of EVO'S appearing within Beijing , Within Jiufeng national forest to be exact!" The worker said with a panicked expression.
" Then just send an unassigned hunter to the designated position immediately.." The man replied in a casual manner but to his confusion the worker instead said.
" Well I would love to sir but you see...." The worker said meekly his voice trailing off as if not willing to speak.
" Spit it out man, what's the problem?" He ordered in an imposing voice.
On seeing his subordinates reaction he couldn't help wondering what was wrong.
" The Evo signature's we detected are unlike any we've ever come across..." The worker finally said with a bit of uncertainty in his voice.
" Are you saying that their far more powerful than anything we've faced till date?!" The man's eye's widened in shock.
" Not necessarily sir!, it's quite the opposite really..." The worker tried reassuring the man afraid of causing a misunderstanding.
" You see it's just that their signatures keep vanishing and appearing on the monitors, it's also pretty faint to, similar to trace's of an Evo instead of actual ones sometimes..." His subordinates said with a puzzled look.
The man on the other hand was relived to hear that it wasn't what he had thought but on hearing the worker's explanation he suddenly felt puzzled as well.
" Your saying that they seem weak?" He asked with his brows raised, feeling a bit curious.
" Affirmative Sir, though I can't be fully sure..." His subordinate replied.
" Hmm....I see..." The man stroked his bearded chin, though within his mind he was pondering things carefully.
'Well this is quite tricky, on one hand it could be a trap set by those bastard beasts but on the other hand it could also be an extremely weak Evo on the bring of death..'
' The latter is far to rewarding to pass off but the former is equally too risky as well...'
" I've made up my mind, is Lady Zhao Li still within the country.. " he suddenly said all of a sudden.
" Yes Sir, Our Intel says she's still finishing up her photo shoot in Beijing"
' But why on earth would you suddenly bring up the mad queen Sir‽' The worker wanted to blurt out but was quick to keep his mouth shut before he got himself into serious trouble.
It couldn't be helped since he thought that calling her would be a bit of an overkill.
it was natural since the lady in question was actually one of the strongest Evo hunter's in China.
Her nickname was one given to her by everyone who met her which had something to do with her extremely crazy tendencies that frightened those around her, Even most Evo hunter's would give her a wide breadth when they saw her!, That was just how infamous she was.
" Fantastic, she's requested for an Evo battle companion from us a few months ago, this is the perfect opportunity to fulfill that promise of ours" On remembering such a promise the supervisor felt even more thankful at the moment.
" Give her those coordinates you have, if it turns out to be an ambush...with her strength am sure she can easily manage and if it turns out to be an actual dying Evo our relationship with her would improve to an even more better level" he added.
' it's a win win situation!' The man thought with glee, though he didn't show it on his stern face.
" Certainly Sir, I'll be sure to do just that!" The worker said firmly before turning around and leaving.
With him now gone the lone figure went back to supervising their current operation, though he couldn't help wondering just what type of EVO'S would be able to cause such a sudden change in the system.
Moreover it had to be known that he was a trained official who'd gone through several drastic experiences, on remembering who he was just talking about earlier, he couldn't help but fell a bit of pity for the unknown EVO'S.
