They"d come from mount Olympus, just to be part of the fight, Nicky had explained as Sakura created a layout of what remained of the immortal realm known as Pandoria."The CarTruka, will try to attack from this point," Sakura pointed at the coal mines that connected underground tunnels to the Forgotten forest, "it"s their only choice."
"The Forgotten will kill them before they even set foot in their forest," Nicky said and all agreed.
"True, but there is another alternative," Saya who"d kept quiet the entire time said, as she polished her swords.
"And what would that be?" Aro asked his eyes changed from a blazing read to a torment gray, until they settled only a lovely violet.
"The Gates," Sakura said remembering how the last time she"d been with Nia and Joey the last Gatekeepers they explained that any Ancient, or descendant of an Ancient could open the Gates.
"The Gatekeepers won"t allow it," Saya said but realizing to late her mistake, all she said was, "were all doomed."
"I wouldn"t say that," Violet said as she appeared before them with Crystel and Alex by her side.
