' Let's go in quickly. The weather is cold.' Jade says as she walked in quickly.
Jayden: It's not like it's the middle of summer or anything.
The rest followed her inside.
She stopped by her Old Man King's room to drop by some trinkets she thought would suit him.
She then headed to her room. Jayden was escorted to the guest room while the other three guys went to their assigned rooms.
Some time later,
After receiving Jade's signal, the Moonlight Demons convened in her room for a meeting.
She opened the briefcases which were lined with blue 500 Ivros notes.
' 80 million dollars. That's the gain for tonight.' Jade says.
Even though they heard all the discussion and saw everything, they were still shocked to see so much money at once.
' Jade you are awesome!!!' Justin exclaimed. It was just earlier that evening that they were discussing about earning 100 million but they earned 80 million in a full swing.
' Now we just have to think of a way to get 20 more million.' Tyler says.
' We can just go to another casino.' Justin says.
' No, right now those people will send spies around other casinos to wait for Jade.' Matt replies.
' Then what do we do now?' Justin says downheartedly.
They all enter deep thoughts.
' You can just use your hacking skills.' System Jade suggests.
Jade stood up abruptly and got out her computer.
She then hacked into a prestigious University's records and got evidence of bullying and then forwarded it to the Principal blackmailing him with 30 million.
This was the college the original Jade went to in the book and it was later shut down for engaging in bullying and when the Principal was found in an indecent relationship with a freshman.
While she waited his reply, she explained her plan to the three guys.
' Jade is there anything you can't do?' Justin says.
' You are really awesome.' Tyler says.
Matt silently reached out and pat her head. ' Good job.' He says.
Jade was stunned and then she giggled. ' Dear MidKnight finally gave me verbal approval.' Jade says smiling.
Matt coughed in embarrassment and turned his face away but how could the other MLDs let him go.
' Our darling MidKnight is shy...' Tyler playfully nudged his shoulder.
' It's a miracle.' Justin says dramatically.
' Is he blushing? Oh my he's blushing.' Jade chimed in poking Matt's cheek.
Matt took a pillow and hit her head softly. Jade paused and then smiled,
' I see where this is going. One, two, three, four, I declare a pillow war!!' Jade exclaimed as she grabbed pillows and threw at the guys.
The others grab pillows and soon a full blown pillow war broke out.
' Hey not on my beautiful face.' Tyler complained
' Mirror mirror on the wall, who are the guys about to lose this war?' Jade says as she whacked them.
' Matt has run away.' Justin called out as they saw Matt trying to sneakily open the door.
' Catch him.'
They run after Matt, down the stairs, round the pillars, through rooms and finally they cornered him.
' I hereby execute you to death by tickle squad. Guys, tickle him to death!! Charge!' Jade says and they rush at him tickling him.
' Haha.... Stop... Haha pl... Haha please.' Matt says through laughter. He pushes Tyler and Justin away and then locks Jade's arms behind her back.
' Surrender Or the Queen dies.' Matt says playing along.
' Release the Queen or you shall lose your head.' Tyler says pretending to draw a sword.
' You must promise my safety first.' Matt says.
' You dare to negotiate?' Justin says "drawing his sword" as well.
Jade broke free from Matt's grip (which she could have done earlier if she wasn't worried about hurting him).m and "placed a sword on his neck."
' We have you outnumbered.' Jade says.
Matt ducks and the four of them "battle" clanging their "swords" against the others.
After 15 minutes of battle, the MLD sat on the floor panting heavily.
' Someone should get water.' Tyler says.
' Yeah, someone.' Justin says.
Three pairs of eyes turned to Tyler.
' No way! Let's race that brown wall, last one gets to run errands.' Tyler suggests.
The four of them reluctantly agreed and stood up and went to their starting point.
************
Golden Valley,
Golden Valley was not so peaceful. The four men watched as they were moved down in the Golden Valley top 5 ranking.
The 35 million man watched as his name plaque was removed from the rank board.
' If I ever find that b*tch, I'll skin her alive.' 35 million man says gritting his teeth that he nearly crushed his silver tooth.
Ruby slipped out of Golden Valley and hurried home. At least she had her one million, who cared if that old fart lost money?
***************
' On your mark, get set , go!!'.
The four ran and then hit the wall and let out a uniform,
' Ouch!!'
Jade touched the wall. ' What the f*CK!! This stuff is glass covered with wallpaper. I think we came to a wrong room.' Jade says as she stated at her bleeding palms.
She stretches out to help out the guys.
They checked each others hand to make sure there were no shards and just as they were about to leave, the room got enveloped in a silvery bright light.
The drops of blood on their hand formed a seal that shone deep blue like the night sky and then silver before turning black. The dark colour didn't feel ominous, diabolical or threatening but it had a sense of comfort like the comfort that came with the darkness of sleeping with a warm blanket.
The four exchanged astonished glances.
What was going on?
*************
' It is happening again. The seal of the Dark Moonlight has been formed again.' The old priest says happily as he calculated the fortune.
