Helios walked into the bulb looking at Dulceri and Nephilis. Helios had heard what Dulceri had said and nodded in agreement with his comrad. He didnt like feeling like he was being used. He took a seat not saying anything to him, but growing rather impatient. Shatara and Takeru sat by each other. "Dont worry, all they're going to do is yell at each other" she stated with a laugh. Amiea looked at her brother, not saying anything, having her notepad out and ready to fight if necessary.

"I see..." as Takeru slowly looked at Shatara "So why is everyone so uptight?" as Takeru could sense a strong aura from Helios and Amiea. "Don't tell me the world will end" as Takeru was joking around.

Nephilis looks to his side at Helios, but doesn't say anything. He only pours a glass of water and drinks it. Sighing, he looks at his sister expecting the worst to come.
"I never liked Politics anyway Neph. I told you we shoulda opened a restaurant or something."
"I understand. Hopefully, after this, you will too."
"I do understand, but still Neph. You're kinda sucking up all the money and resources. Give someone else a chance.'
"I will when I'm done. I'm not done yet, but almost."
"...fine."

Shatara looked at Takeru as she heard what she said, in honesty she wanted to say yes, but she shook her head. "Of course not, it's just that everyone is friends but it's kind of hard to take care of buisness as well without stepping on a few toes" she stated with a sigh. Amiea looked at her brother and nodded. She had a bad feeling about this meeting as she looked around the room was being filled. She saw the room finishing filling up as she looked at him once more. Helios looked Nephilis. "Well you need to hurry it up Fairy, I'll only sit idle for so long" he stated in a whisper as he created a flame in his hand playing with it.

"That is true" as Takeru sat there listening back and forth upon the situation between two people talking, and another walking in talking with that person like a speech war. To Takeru, this was not solving any problems at all.

"You're going to have to sit cool..." Neph looks over at him. "If that's possible. We can't proceed until Zephyr arrives." The President of Noroa arrives followed by the faux-leader of Silicia. Nephilis tilits his head in reflex. It then starts.
An old man with skin droopier than melted plastic takes his stand at the podium and prepares the intro. "Today, we call the meeting of the six nations of the world, save for one who isn't here yet. That being Zephyr." He pauses and breathes, hoping she'd answer in that moment. "Continuing on, issue number one brought forth by Dulceri Shale against Marx Dest. You may have the stand Dulceri."
"Thank you." Fleecing his vest, he stands and walks to the podium and takes the microphone. "Ahem, Mr. Dest. For the past three years, my father, my nation and myself have given you land, paid for your structures and funded your army. I would just like to know when will you return the funds that we have given you?"
"Shale, once again you're asking too much of us. We can only do but so much at once. We're being taxed by Evermore, just like you are and you still pursue this payment."
"You're not being taxed by Evermore. Only Me, Helios and Zephyr are. Explanation please?"
~I thought this wouldn't start till Zeph came...damn it...~

"I don't know what you're talking about Shale..." Marx replied. "I haven't the slightest clue as to what you're talking about." ~Goddamn it boy...I helped raise you. Me and your father brought you up while your mother was sickly and dying. You're questioning me!?~
Dulceri couldn't respond to him mentally because he lacked the ability to. Instead he goes on to say,"You do know. I have the proof. See here." In the back of the room, a light shines and a projection is made against the wall adjacent to him. "These are the funds of Evermore since fourteen years ago. Now, as you can see, each bar remains at the same height correct?"
"Indeed Shale, but how does that prove that Evermore isn't taxing us?"
"Simple. The bars are all the same. Your nation came into existance three years ago. Therefore, the bar should've increased, should it have not?" He watches as Marx swallows his words and smiles in his face. "I thought so. Now, you weren't in any kind of war...nor were you in any turmoil. You've been building for three years, so without being taxed, why haven't you accumulated any money to pay me?"
Marx cracked a smile at the question, knowing a simple lie would get him out of this. "We give it to smaller nations Shale. Followers, if you will. Now, is there anything else you'd like to know...boy?"
Dulceri looks at him blankly at first, then his eyes narrow as his mouth forms silent curses. "No. No more questions Mr. Dest."
The old mad returns to his stand and brings up another stack of papers. "Ahem. Argument number two, brought forth by Zephyr against the new leader of Silicia."

Royce Darkener Hal slowly looked at her from the back. "My plan is to travel mostly, Seeing the world was a dream before I was a General of the Tenshu Army. But now that I'm open to do so. I'm planning to go to Hydron to pick up some herbs and some new Attire, Might as well Join there army as well.. " as Hal slowly sped up across the dunes with his air on his feet.
[[Sorry to keep Hal waiting for so long, sweetie...]]
Sera thought about what he said as she continued keeping pace with him. "Hmm. Traveling and seeing that word. That's an interesting dream for someone like you." She sai as she looked up at the sky, thinking. "But how come you didn't do it before you became general of the Tenshu army? Wouldn't it have been easier for you?" She asked, looking back at him curiously.

Daphne watched the argument, knowing Marx quite well and even from the back of the room she could see right through his sneaky scheme. ~What an ignorant...~ She couldn't finish before the man brought up another argument about the leader of Silicia. ~Uh oh...~

Kenji was sitting in the audience as the 6 nations came. They were now discussing the taxing issue with Evermore. He listened curiously. Marx seemed to not want to pay Duceri because they're being taxed and that he won't listen to reasoning.

Charon stood up his eyes weren't glowing they but it was clear that he was thinking very hard, he could sense the political debating going on far away. " Amara, I know I say this a lot but I need to go for a little bit. " He said with an apologetic look. " Bye Krys I'll see you guys later alright, try to stay out of trouble. " He said softly as he opened the door to his pocket dimension walking in as the door disappeared behind him.

Amara looked as Charon was getting ready to leave. She was getting aggrivated on how he just left her all the time like she was too simple to comrehend what was going on. "Why are you going anyways? They wont listen, you're not a prime leader or anything so what of it?" she scoffed now raging mad because he did this all the time.

He knew Amara was very upset with him, and she was probably right but he wasn't going there to say anything, he was only going to be an observer this time. He dressed in a fine black suit which hid his wings perfectly, He tied his hair into a ponytail and sighed he hated doing anything with his hair, but it made him look more normal. Opening the door once more he walked out without drawing the attention of anyone in the room. Tilting his head down he made no noise, unless someone was looking around the room they wouldn't even know he was there.

((Sorry...I've been trying to catch up on sleep))
After Chyuta's confession, Zephyr didn't know how to react...so she just ran. She ran to be alone for a bit, even though leaving him like that was the wrong thing to do. After some time in the newly planted orchard, she realized she was late for the meeting. She caught the winds, riding them to Shale and stepping into the bulb hurriedly, just in time to hear about the argument against the new leader of Silicia. "I apologize for my tardiness," she said quietly, but it was easily seen that even though she was there in body, her mind was elsewhere.
Krys raised an eyebrow after Charon left. "What was that all about?" she asked before taking another sip of her drink.

Again, Kenji thought of the girl he met 3 years ago. He kept thinking random flashbacks and this one was the most frequent. He shook his head trying to get rid of the flashback and tried to listen to the discussion.
