🌱 02.23.2024 I genuinely enjoy doing this assessment. We're asked to choose a fairytale, epic, legend, folktale, or myth then design a book cover for it. We can reinvent the titles, author's name, and other stuff. I could've painted the red dress better, particularly the shadows, but this is due at 4pm so I don't have much time. And the white rose is not looking white right there so yeah. Keep in mind that I haven't painted for a while ;-;

Terravenger Season 6 - The Twilight Arc - Episode 521 (Do Not Copy) - 02.23.2024
Four years ago, a large purple cloud formed from every corner of the hallway of the Midas Academy during one beautiful morning. The fog flew through the hallway until it formed into an individual who walked toward the closed classroom.
The person appeared as Alexis Sanyo with her purple skin, purple eyes, and a slender body. She had on black eyeliner and black lipstick. Her short brown hair was tied into a pig-tail which remained behind her head. And she wore a small silver sphere which hung from the bottom of each ear. She wore a chrome-colored shirt with long black sleeves and tight chrome-colored pants. She also had a thick black belt around the top of her pants. And she wore a pair of long black boots.
She stood at the center of the Science lab.
Alexis carefully looked around as she called out "Come on out! I know you are here!"
She continued searching around as she cried "I know you spoke to Him. It is in your best interest to appear and answer for yourself."
A medium yellow light floated down from the ceiling to the back of the woman. Another person soon walked out from the shining light. And the pair faced each other as the light faded away.
It was Leo with long yellow extensions coming down from each side of his head. He also had his short dark-brown hair. And he wore black liner around his clear green eyes. He wore a zipped black shirt with no sleeves and a large Infinity symbol placed on the lower part. His MAF badge was also placed on the front left side of his top. He had a pair of tight black pants and a short black-leathered cloth around his waist along with a thick red belt. He also had on short black boots and long maroon gloves.
Leo placed his left hand on his waist as he gave a soft smile.
And he said "So the Dog has arrived to confront the Wolf."
Terravenger -- Season 6
Episode 521: The Two High Stars
A smiling Alexis nodded her head and asked "So you're basing your predictions on the Tarot instead of your own senses?"
Leo took two steps forward and informed her "You of all should never doubt my readings."
Then Alexis implied "I had it all under control. You didn't have to come and give the knight more hints for his time yet to come."
Leo claimed "It had to be done now that He is returning from his slumber."
Alexis turned her head away and thought for a moment.
"The young Magician must guide his warriors to victory," phrased Leo. "But the day of their victory shall be an uneasy attempt. This form of evil will be hard for the Magician alone to bring down."
The fearful Alexis stared at the young man in fear and cried "So He is slowly making his way back into this world."
"And you know not to directly interfere in this?" questioned Leo.
"Of course," answered Alexis. "I won't interfere in this battle. The counselor Mercury along with the Midas Armed Forces must be the victors of this upcoming war."
Leo with a wicked smile had shaken his head and replied "Until then, everyone must remain blind of our reunion."
And Alexis told him "No one will know of this. And I will not tell the Counselor or anyone of the city anything unless it is absolutely dire."
During the next year, the young Englishman called Leo had walked through the hallway on the Third Floor of the Midas Academy.
Leo had on a sleeveless black shirt with his MAF badge placed on the front left side of the chest. He also wore tight black pants with a thick red belt around the waist and a pair of short black boots. And a short red cloth was worn around his left waist.
The sinister man continued peacefully until he heard a female voice ask "What are you up to now, Aker?"
Leo turned his head and found Alexis Sanyo standing behind him with her arms folded in front of her.
The purple-skinned heroine had black eyeliner, purple lipstick, and short white hair. She wore a sleeveless dark top that lowered to her waist. Her MAF badge was placed on the front left side of the top. She also had on a pair of tight dark pants and light-brown boots. And she wore a short dark-brown warmer around each wrist.
Leo greeted "How has your day gone, my dear Alexia?"
"I am warning you," Alexis told him. "Leave everyone in Midas City in peace. And tell Him to withdraw from this unwanted battle."
Leo gave a cheery smile and said "You know I can't do that. Once the master has made up his mind, there is no way it cannot change. What's done is done?"
A saddened Alexis lowered her head and Leo implied "You truly must care for these mortals. You have spend many decades of your life masquerading as one. You probably have gained the emotions these mere beings possess."
Alexis soon balled her fists as she stared at the villain with determination.
Leo informed her "I have been watching the little soldiers at this school. I actually find some of the young people here most impressive, particularly the students."
"Leave them all alone," warned Alexis.
After that, she lowered her head as Leo folded his arms with a wicked smile. And a focused Alexis faced the youthful man once again.
"It is useless," Leo informed her. "You tried to enter my mind just now. I did not expect that. Of course I have my ways to block those that wish to open a door into my deepest secrets. Not even you are able to look inside my mind -- a person of great promise."
"But?" questioned Alexis. "How did you gain even that ability?"
Leo gave a sinister grin and responded "Reincarnation is not only what He taught me. The master was wise to teach ways to block all psychic energy to me. You will have to find out with the rest of the gallery about his plan when the time comes."
A year later, the villainous Leo stood at the cliff of the Forest Area which was at the top of the Midas Academy. And he started deeply at the white moon in the sky for a moment.
Leo had on a sleeveless light-purple top with a large silver moon on its right side while his MAF badge remained at its front left side. And worn around the lower part of his chest was a meshed bottom. He wore tight black pants along with a thick light-purple belt and long black boots. He also had a long light-purple glove over his right hand while a shorter glove was on his left hand. And he wore an opened purple vest with short sleeves.
He continued watching the bright moon until he felt a large ki soaring toward him quickly. He soon ducked as a leg lashed at him. He jumped with four back-flips deep into the large forest and landed on his right knee.
Then he faced his attacker who was none other than a determined Alexis Sanyo. She had golden skin and clear purple eyes. She had on black eyeliner and purple lipstick. The lower parts of her long light-brown hair were down while two parts from the top were both wrapped in high buns. She wore a khaki blouse with long sleeves and her MAF badge on the front left side of the chest. She also had on tight pants and long boots that were made of brown leather. A golden ring was placed around her neck. And different sets of golden bracelets were around each wrist.
Alexis stood ready to battle as Leo kindly asked "And what made you this way, my dear Alexia?"
Alexis asked in her strong voice "What have you done, Thomas?"
"What are you speaking of?" questioned Leo.
First, the angered Alexis hurried to him and leaped into the air with a quick spin. She soon gave out a Diving Left Side Kick and Leo hopped away from the attack. And Alexis landed on her left knee as an emotionless Leo rose from the ground.
Alexis cried "You have unleashed a pack of your dogs into the Academy for Him? What are you after?"
Once he jumped away, Leo began moving his head from one side to another repeatedly as Alexis threw out a barrage of palm strikes.
After the pair finally landed, they faced one another.
Leo gave a sinister smile as Alexis demanded "Confess Thomas! You will admit to what you have done!"
"Very well then," responded Leo. "I do admit to bringing my own set of people into the school. And yes, there is a plan at work. You of all should know what."
Alexis remained in her battle stance as she cried in fear "You have brought them to Midas City? Do you realize what darkness you have brought here?"
After Alexis had performed her best, Leo flipped over and landed face down on the grassy ground.
Leo began to lift himself up as he cried "Impossible!"
Alexis walked toward him as she said "I was not able to attack in my previous form. But now, you are vulnerable to my abilities."
Leo lifted his right knee as he told the golden woman "You still cannot interfere in the plans of our dear master."
And the wicked man replied "You are not capable in stopping our master's will. He will soon return into the world. Then he will have the unlimited power he requires to silence the universe as you know it."
"He already has you and the others as his followers," implied Alexis. "What else would he need?"
Then a deranged Leo spread his arms out and answered "There is more he needs in order to return to this plane."
After that, he gave out a wicked smile and continued.
"It will not be long until He appears and takes this entire planet as his own. He will then move to conquer more until he has complete control of his miserable realm."
And Leo finally vanished.
Some time later, the villainous Leo had met with the mysterious wizard called Merlin on the bridge of Taurus Road during one windy afternoon.
Merlin placed both his hands inside the pockets of his coat and implied "During your time there, you must have learned about the weaknesses of the Midas Armed Forces."
"The warden of this nation has plenty of that," Leo informed him. "But his main that I know of is the wellness of his children -- his two little sons."
"Yes," reviewed Merlin. "The weakness of this city's commander would be his two children. But in reality, his other main weakness is the people of his nation."
"We must beware of his minions however," warned Leo. "They will possess such great and unspeakable power. But not only that. One among them has known of our master's plot for some time. We must be concerned of Alexia Palatinate."
"She is no threat to us," claimed Merlin. "So she has evolved into a more powerful adversary. But she is still bound by the rules."
"Yes," commented Leo. "If she were to reveal what truly is in the works of our lord, then the life of Alexia would be at risk."
Merlin stared at him with no emotion until he told Leo "Head back now. I will handle things from here. You just ready our lord for the next of the plan."
Leo gave out a short laugh and said "Then I shall leave everything to you. Just be cautious when around not only Alexia Palatinate, but all the soldiers of these nations. And this includes the faithful Magician -- the Knight of Morah."
Once Merlin walked off, Leo turned away and gave another wicked smile.
He thought to himself "In order to become the supreme being of this plane, I must stop Mephistopheles from rising from his prison."

Terravenger Season 6 - The Twilight Arc - Episode 520 (Do NOT Copy) - 02.23.2024
Many years later, the angelic woman known as Alexia Palatinate floated in the nightly sky with her arms spread apart and her head forward.
The woman now had long brown hair that was parted into two sections. She had on purple lipstick. And she had on a pair of brown glasses with black lenses. She had worn a buttoned black top with long sleeves and a thick collar. Underneath her top was a lavender shirt that had a thick collar and short sleeves. She also wore a pair of tight dark-blue jeans. And she had on a pair of black slippers that had high heels.
She waited until she spotted something happened below. She found two individuals running as quick as they could toward a large ferryboat at a large ocean. And the pair were chased by a large army of bounty hunters.
Alexia gave a cute smile and responded "I guess it's show time."
One of the escaping individuals was a tall young man with pale skin, light-blue eyes, and short dark-brown hair. And he was growing a beard. He wore a sleeveless black shirt underneath a short-sleeved scarlet-colored shirt with a thick collar and the white skull crest placed on the front left side of the chest. He also had on a pair of long khaki pants, brown socks, and white shoes. And a thin silver chain was placed around his neck.
He carried around his arms was a small boy with fair skin and blue eyes. He had light-blond hair that was short and wavy. He had worn a buttoned white shirt with short sleeves and a thick collar. He also had on long gray shorts, short brown socks, and black shoes.
The young pair were chased by two familiar people among the villainous hunters.
The one at the right side was Lua with fair skin, a well-built body, and short brown hair slanting to the left side. And he had a thin beard. He wore an opened black coat with the two tails laying on the ground. He also had on a pair of baggy black pants and short black boots. And he had on three types of necklaces.
The other who was running at the left side was his partner Leo with long dark-brown hair and a fine beard. He wore a military top that had dark camouflage-typed colors and a black T-shirt underneath. He also had on tight pants that were made of black leather. And he had short boots that were also made of black leather.
Lua gave a sinister grin as Leo reported in an English accent "Other than our escapees, there are five civilians aboard the craft."
And Lua ordered "Go on. Show them what happens to blasphemers."
After pointing his right finger to the dark sky, Leo fired a small ball of yellow energy.
He whispered "Canum Venaticorum!"
The small projectile flew into the sky and exploded into hundreds of falling rays.
Once the escapees boarded, one ray fell toward the top of the boat. That was when a large purple light from the right point-finger of the savior Alexia began to shine around the entire area.
Terravenger -- Season 6
Episode 520: My Name Is...
Then Alexia stood over the boat as it sailed into the ocean. And every projectile created by Leo had dissolved into nothing once it hit the large barrier.
After the globe of purple light faded, the observant Leo spotted the person still floating in the sky.
Leo finally gave a calm smile and asked "Was it you that helped the sinners escape, Alexia Palatinate?"
Once the sun rose, the small boy awoke and found himself laying by the right side of his older partner named Ivan Scorpio. The boy who was revealed as a young Kirk Tucson soon spotted a long dark blanket covering the both of them.
Then he heard a soft female voice ask "Did you sleep well, Little One?"
Tucson looked forward and found the mysterious Alexia Palatinate standing three steps before him.
The small boy soon unwrapped the blanket off himself as the purple-skinned woman leaned his head to the left side. And she gave a cute smile as the boy walked toward her.
"It's okay," said the woman. "You are among a friend."
The small Tucson lifted his left point-finger before his bottom lip.
And Alexia replied "I had a great vision with you having a big part to play, Kirk Tucson."
"Me?" questioned the boy.
Alexia slowly crawled forward and wrapped her arms around the questioning boy.
She responded "I am going to take you to those who will teach you how to fight against the people who took away your mom. And the person who orders those people. You will learn how to cleanse the world of its darkness. You are going to be one fine warrior of Light."
Alexia soon turned to the sleeping Ivan and said "Oh Ivan Scorpio. You have done well helping this boy get out from the Devil's thumb, as it was predicted. You can now rest yourself and get ready for the rest of your life."
And she faced the right side as she thought "I do know why you Ivan had gotten into a huge fight with your dad. But you will eventually go back to him. And the both of you will be reconcile. That will happen way before the great general reaches his end."
Alexia continued to hold the sleeping boy as she gave a relieved smile.
She thought "You will do so much for the entire universe, Kirk Tucson. And I will make sure of it."
Many years later, there were few knocks on the closed door inside the Midas Academy during one calm morning.
A male voice called out "Come in! Come in!"
The door opened and someone entered into the Principal's Office.
This was the mysterious woman called Alexia Palatinate. She had on dark-purple lipstick. She had long black hair with the front parts covering her forehead. And she had on a pair of light-brown glasses with clear lenses. She wore a sleeveless orange top with a long black dress. She also had on a pair of short black boots. And she wore an opened coat that was made of brown leather.
Sitting at a desk was the commander and principal of the Midas Academy -- Beau Ravenstone. He was a tall man with fair skin, brown eyes, and a muscular body. The front part of his brown hair had covered his forehead while the back part lowered to the top of his neck. And he had a thick beard. He wore a uniform consisting of a black top with long sleeves and gray pants. At the top of his pants was a thick silver belt which had his family's crest at the center. He also had a thick silver pad on the top of each shoulder along with silver pads that covered his knees and ankles. And he wore a pair of long black boots. His golden MAF badge was placed on the front left side of his top.
The kind Beau greeted "Ah, it's you. Welcome!"
"Thank-you Sir," responded Alexia. "Such a beautiful morning this is."
First, the principal sat a closed folder on his desk as he faced the purple-skinned woman.
"According to your information," implied Beau. "You happen to be quite a psychic."
Alexia looked up at the ceiling while she asked "How is your wife?"
Beau stared at her with complete shock as the woman implied "You have tried to have a child for a few years now. Am I right?"
"How did you..." cried Beau.
"Well," said the woman. "Your ad stated that you needed a person of my talents, Right?"
Beau gathered himself and answered "Yes. Of course."
"Well," claimed Alexia. "Here I am."
Next, Beau lowered his head.
He informed the woman "No one knows of my wife's troubles. Not even my general."
Alexia shook her head and told him "I won't tell if you prefer. My lips are sealed."
Then the commander thought to himself as the calm Alexia waited.
And Beau answered "Very well, you're hired. I will give you a shot."
The excited Alexia told the principal "Thank-you Sir. You won't regret this. I won't let you down. You can count on me."
"By the way," replied Beau. "What do I call you? You have never given a name on your resume."
The woman gave a large smile and told the commander "Just call me... Alexis. Yes! Alexis will do. Alexis Sanyo."
"Alexis Sanyo huh?" questioned Beau.
After that, Beau stood from his chair and offered his right hand.
"Alright then," He told the woman. "I welcome you to the Midas Armed Forces, Alexis Sanyo."

Terravenger Season 6 - The Twilight Arc - Episode 519 (Do Not COPY) - 02.23.2024
During the year of 1958, the officer named Thomas Faust sat on a chair which was by the right side of his ailing wife as he had worn his gray uniform.
He told the right hand of Amber using both hands as a worried Thomas looked down at her as she laid in her bed at an old hospital.
The tired Amber informed her loving husband "The doctor says that there is nothing he can do for me. It is now in the hands of the Lord."
"There must be something they can do," implied Thomas in his German accent. "There must be a droge you have not tried."
The peaceful Amber laid her head on her pillow and told him "The doctor only said to make myself as comfortable as possible."
A few minutes later, the weakened Amber turned her head to the left side as her eyes slowly closed.
"Frauchen?" cried Thomas.
His hands remained on the right hand of his beloved wife until he heard a male voice reported "She has wavered."
Suddenly, Thomas turned his head and spotted someone standing before him.
This was a young man with light skin, a well-built body, and short brown hair slanting to his left side. And his right eye was colored blue while the left one was yellow. He wore a black-lined meshed shirt along with an outfit consisting of a white vest on the right side that had a long blue sleeve covering that arm. The other side was a camouflage coat which was worn by a soldier from the United States Army. He also had on a pair of baggy white pants with a thick black belt wrapped around the waist. And he wore a pair of long black combat-boots.
The man responded "The girl has finally passed on. Now it is only the dead that can judge her."
Thomas yelled "Wie kannst du es wagen?"
The grieving man completely turned around and cried "How dare you! You do not belong her, Fiemde! Leave us at once!"
"But it is the truth," The man informed him. "Your beloved has now joined the spirits in the Afterlife."
The distraught Thomas tried to attack using his Right Fist. But the stranger appeared behind him. He soon placed his left hand into Thomas's back as if it was a hologram.
Thomas yelled in pain "Was zum Teufel?"
A blue light shined from them until the mysterious man slowly took out his hand from his opponent's back.
Then a weakened Thomas fell to his knees as he cried "Was ist das?"
As Thomas laid his hands on the ground, the crafty stranger stood behind while he held a medium ball of blue light with his left hand.
The stranger asked "Perhaps you are a lot calmer now?"
The ailing Thomas asked "What did you do to me?"
"I have only taken a large amount of your ki," answered the man. "You are no longer able to move for a while."
The ball of light vanished from the man's hand as Thomas asked "Who are you?"
And the stranger introduced himself.
"You can call me Lua. I am one of those who serve Him -- the Bearer of Light."
Terravenger -- Season 6
Episode 519: Thomas Leon Faust
"Der trager des Lichts?" questioned Thomas. "You say you serve He Who Brings Chaos to Those Deserving?"
"Indeed," answered Lua. "He has asked me to bring you to him."
Thomas slowly lowered his head and asked "And what does der trager des Lichts want with me?"
Lua gave a soft smile as he placed his right hand on his waist.
And he told the soldier "He only wishes to have a word with you."
"But for what reason?" cried Thomas. "I have nothing of value for him!"
"Maybe he has something..." implied Lua. "...that can help you to reunite with your beloved one. Something which can make her whole again."
"Was meinen Sie?" questioned Thomas. "You claim that He wants to reunite me with my love?"
"He may," implied Lua. "You never know. You may be able to feel the touch from your dear wife by the end of the night."
Thomas soon thought to himself as Lua claimed "Your wife is probably the only thing that brings value to your life."
The soldier continued to think as Lua asked "What do you have to lose once you hear what my master has to offer?"
The grieving husband finally lifted his head and responded "Sehr gut. I will do one last thing for Meine Frau."
Inside a dark room, the mysterious Lua presented the eager guest Thomas.
A deep male voice said "Thomas Leon Faust. It is time that you and I had met."
The soldier Thomas stared forward as the voice continued.
"Yes... I know who you are. I know everything about you. I also know that you would do anything to bring the person you loved back into this world."
"I was told..." Thomas implied. "...that you may have a way to return Meine Frau to the world of die Lebendon."
"I may, yes," The voice told him. "But at a high price, I may be able to bring Amber Faust back among the living."
"Then..." Thomas cried. "Are you able to release Meine Frau from the world of das Jenseits?"
"Yes," The voice answered. "However, there is but one price that must be paid. And you are the one that must pay... within my terms of course."
"Irgend was!" Thomas begged. "I will do anything! I will do anything if it helps Meine Frau!"
Then the voice told him "The price that must be paid is to serve me. You will serve me as one of my loyal disciples. Then when the time comes, I will release your wife from the Afterlife."
"Think of it," Lua told Thomas. "You will have power that is unlimited and a mystery to those with a one-tracked mind."
Thomas lowered his head and thought for a moment. After that, he lifted his head and faced the unseen being.
"Sehr gut!" Thomas answered. "I shall be with you. You will have my soul and my body for as long as you choose. I shall be one of deine Diener."
Suddenly, his clothing glowed a bright green light and changed.
After the light faded, Thomas had worn a black robe with long maroon sleeves and a white collar around his neck. He also had on a pair of black boots and black gloves. And a large clear gem was placed on the left side of his chest.
Thomas looked at his new outfit and the male voice replied "You shall do every bidding I ask. You shall perform every task with greatness. If you obey my terms, I shall bring your wife back from the Dead into the world of the Living."
And Thomas looked up at the being as his eyes changed from brown to a clear green.
Thomas finally gave out a wicked smile and said in an English accent "I shall be yours to command. Yours and yours alone..."
Something soon appeared at the left eye of the enslaved Thomas. It was a beastly figure with long white hair, a pointy beard and two large horns on the top of his head. And the being had shining green eyes with black pupils.
The being announced "I now appoint you -- Thomas Leon Faust -- as one of my faithful disciples. You will serve as my eyes and my ears as you return to the land of the living."
"Yes," said Thomas. "I shall make you proud, my master... My great lord... My bringer of light... Mephistopheles!"
A few weeks later, Thomas had followed the smiling Lua through a long hallway with lit candles held at the top of the walls.
Thomas now wore a sleeveless black shirt, baggy black pants with a thick black belt, and short black boots. And he had on an opened black coat that fell to his ankles.
The pair soon met with two more people who walked from the other side.
The person standing at the right side was the pleasant man called Goran. He appeared as a young man with fair skin and cold purple eyes. He had a well-built body and a strong face. And he had short dark-brown hair that was combed back. He had on a buttoned black shirt with a fine collar and a pair of long sleeves. He also wore a pair of black dress-pants, black socks, and brown dress-shoes. And he wore an opened black coat that lowered to his knees.
The other who was at the other side was a slender young woman with purple eyes, purple skin, and long dirty-blond hair that lowered from her shoulders. She wore a long-sleeved pale-brown shirt along with a pair of tight black pants and short black boots. And she didn't wear any type of makeup.
Goran stared at Lua with a playful smile and implied "Ah, if it isn't the Moon Hermit making his rounds."
He spotted the newcomer standing by Lua's left side and added "And it appears he has brought in a new soldier."
Lua shook his head and asked "How did you know this man came from the military?"
The calm Goran gave a short laugh and responded "I can tell by a certain scent they have. That, and you always bring in those from any sort of military background."
Then he asked the newcomer "What military tribe do you hail from?"
And Lua informed the gentleman "This is Thomas Leon Faust from the German military."
Thomas soon told the man "Lord Mephistopheles has christened me with the name Aker."
"Aker huh?" repeated Lua.
Goran shook his head with a soft smile and said "Lua, you remember my student."
Lua faced the quiet girl and answered "Indeed. The master calls her Alexia... Alexia Palatinate. She was rumored to come from somewhere deep in Space."
Alexia lowered her head as Thomas now named Aker shook his head.
During the year 1960, two men stood behind tell platforms and gave out their speeches in front of many citizens that remained outside of the large stage.
Standing behind the citizens was a slender young woman with peach skin, clear purple eyes, and long dirty-blond hair. She wore only a short white gown with long sleeves, white leggings, and black slippers.
The woman continued to watch for the campaign which was between two candidates for the presidential position for the United States.
An hour later, she walked toward an empty forest as her arms were folded in front of her.
She suddenly heard a calm male voice imply "You have transported yourself here?"
The woman quickly turned around and spotted another person walking toward her from a large purple cloud which faded away.
The person appeared as the former soldier from Germany called Aker. He had long dark hall with a full beard and mustache. And he had on black eyeliner. He wore a sleeveless black shirt with light-purple at the bottom. He had on tight black jeans with a thick black belt, long and fingerless light-purple gloves, and long black boots. He also had a necklace with a circular silver pendant which lowered from the center. And he wore an opened black coat that lowered to his ankles.
Aker wrapped his right arm around his front as his left backhand was on the bottom of his chin.
He soon gave a wicked smile and responded in an English accent "Why not you reveal yourself? There is no one here to see."
First, the worried woman waved her right hand over her face twice. The color of her skin had changed from peach to purple as the top of her ears grew longer.
"I finally found you," replied Aker. "You truly believe you can hide from our great lord? You may have cloaked yourself. You may have also transported to another year. But you should have known that our master would find you, Alexia Palatinate."
The woman now revealed as Alexia asked in a childish voice "So He has sent a lowly agent after me?"
Aker informed her "He had sent others to retrieve you. But I... I only decided to investigate further."
And Alexia said "I see."
Then Aker commented "You were not easy to find after all. I searched through every planet, and every system. Then I decided to look through every timeline until I finally found you. You made quite a home in the years when Dwight Eisenhower was the president of the United States."
"So?" asked Alexia. "What will you do? Capture me? Will you bring me back to his court?"
Aker leaned his head to the right side and claimed "You know, I have not decided what I would do if I were to see you again."
Alexia shook her head and questioned "You enjoy chasing after me, don't you?"
Aker gave a soft chuckle and implied "This is a pass time I suppose."
Alexia lowered her head and told him "We have known each other nearly three decades. And I have not known your true goal -- your endgame."
"Uh?" reacted Leo.
And Alexia implied "I have foresaw your future after we have spent time with one another the first time. I have seen you and two others confronting Him."
"Him?" asked the startled Aker.
"Your one and only master," answered Alexia.
After thinking for a few minutes, the wicked Aker spread his left arm out as his right wrist remained before him.
He soon took a gentle bow and told the woman "You can just call me Leo. Yes. Leo... Leo is my name. I am nothing but what you say."
He rose his head as he gave a sinister smile.
And Aker answered "I am a lowly servant that wishes to please his master."
