"Aria here will not be auctioned off, but is a glory. She is a descendant of the infamous Makai," Yukio announced. The crowd oohed and ahed. Aria seemed embarrassed and hid slightly behind me.

"Go ahead and take a look, they certainly don't mind, as they walk around." He motioned for us to get off of the stage and walk around, mingle. We tried to play it cool as I hugged Yuri. "Thank god you came," I thanked her. "It's about time," Aria chimed in. "Aria!" "What? I'm just being honest. They took awhile." "We did, and I'm sorry about that. I will explain all about it when we bust you two out of here. By the way this is Maeve, and this is Santiago." "Nice to meet you," I said. "They are Chiata's parents," Yuri said. "C-Chiata's parents? Wait- that means-" "It's nice to see you again after all these years, Evangeline," Maeve reconciled. "You've certainly grown. I'm sorry for how our daughter behaved towards you," Santiago added. "Wait, you know Chiata personally?" Aria said. "You seriously don't remember." "No, I really don't. Spill." I refreshed her. "OHHHHHH. THAT MAKES SO MUCH MORE SENSE." "As I said." "Anyway, let's get you guys out of here now," Yuri said. She waved for Mimon to bring over Osaka. She pouted because they were in the middle of dancing. Oleander and Sachael came back over too. "Right. By the way, do you know anything at all about Mikio? I know you have that tracking device." "Wait you knew about that and you let her put it in you?" Aria said. "She told me about it afterwards." "Actually, yes. There's hope. His dot.. moved."

"Are you serious? You can't be joking." "I'm not joking." "Where do you think you're taking my two lovely ladies, guest?" Yukio shouted. "Nowhere. My comrades and I were simply exiting for the bathroom," Yuri comprised. "Don't be coy. I know who you are, Ms. Bondta. Ms. Collins, Ms. Kamoto, Ms. Ana, Mr. Aiyaka, Mrs. and Mr. Jana. Where are you going with my new main-teamers, Maeve and Santiago?" "Us? Why are you only accusing us?" Santiago said. They were all confused to why Yukio only addressed them.

He laughed sinisterly, "you don't get it, do you? This is priceless." "What did you do, Yukio?" Sachael said. "This was my entire plan. And you all walked into it." "What? How?" Osaka said. "Tell us," Oleander asked. "First, we captured Citri and made her a part of the Doma Daka. We got her first because she was the most vulnerable. Away from everyone else. Then I used Aria as Evangeline's bait to stay. Aria and Evangeline then both became the rest of your group's bait to come here. Now I have you all trapped and there's nothing you can do about it." "You don't have our entire group. What about Sachiko? Konchu? Mikio?" Mimon stated. "Think again." Sachiko and Konchu came up after Yukio's snap of a finger. They looked different. Their auras were off, like Citri's. There definitely has to be a connection. "Sachiko?" Aria said. "Konchu?" Oleander said. "What about Mikio?" I asked. "Mikio? To be asking about Mikio you would have to be pretty outdated. Mikio is dead and that's final."
