Judgement's P.O.V.

Several hours earlier:

Just what are you planning? I thought calmly looking at the document with slight irritation. Everyone else had already left the room, most likely to inform the Pope or to notify the King. What do you want to do? What can you accomplish by doing this? I questioned it. Slowly recalling everything that had happened up to this point.

He couldn't have remembered. Ah, but he's missing right now, no? He probably did remember. sighing, I got up and moved the paper to a drawer and closed it. Walking to the door and leaving the Conference Room. "Excuse me, Judgement knight?" A high-pitched voice asked. Wait, high-pitched? I turned around to face the intruder.

"And you are?" The girl infront of me moved back slightly. Dark blue eyes looking up at me. "Are you a relative of one of the Knight-Captains?" I asked briskly, my mind focusing on the letter she had in her hands. "No..." She replied softly, shaking her head.

"What do you want?" she raised an eyebrow and held out a envelope, with a rather overly elegant hand-writing. "This letter... Is from Neo Sun." She informed hesitantly, glancing at the hallway behind me. "Something about it being important. He said nothing else though." I took the envelope and read the writing. Well, this is definitely what a Sun knight's handwriting is supposed to look like.

"Why do you have this?" I turned my head to ask the girl, only to see no one at all. She... vanished? I couldn't help but sigh as I went back to my room. Shutting the door behind me I read the contents of the letter.

Lesus, we have a problem. The liche has gotten a location on Grisia, and an army of undead. Wasn't that to the point. There is some... things I still have to take care off. Send the Twelve Holy knight's to this location. I won't be coming with you, but you need to remember, You can't go in blindly. And that was it.

How do you expect us to not go in blindly, when all you gave me was that it was her and an army of undead? Rolling my eyes, I quickly called for Vidar to assemble the Twelve Holy Knights, and their Vice-Captains. What in the name of the God of light are they doing in Kissinger's lands?

"Knight-Captain Judgement," Vidar saluted before letting his arm fall back down. "The Twelve Holy Knights have assembled as you've requested." I nodded. "Bring Knight-Captain Storm and Knight-Captain Sun to me, as soon as possible." Vidar nodded and left. I stood in the center of the Training grounds. In the middle of all the other Knight-Captains, stood our newly appointed Sun knight, Adair, and Storm.

"Knight-Captain Judgement, do you need something?" Adair asked, smiling somewhat awkwardly at me as Storm only gave a half-hearted smile. "Is there something important? Other then the obvious." Storm asked. Gesturing towards the others with raised eyebrows, making the eyebags under his eyes slightly more visible.

"We are all heading to Kissinger, Knight-Captain Storm." I replied in monotone. Adair only looked at me curiously, while Storm only looked even more tired. Well, as tired as he can look with those eyebags. "Why?" "How many are coming?" The first question was asked by Storm, and the second one by Adair.

"Only a few... Knight-Captain Ice, Knight-Captain Hell, Knight-Captain Earth, me, and Knight-Captain Sun." I answered. "Why?" Storm continued, seemingly growing more tired. "Knight-Captain Judgement, I swear, I will fall asleep right now. So please keep it short." Storm continued, his eye lids dropping ever so slightly.

"We, well Former Knight-Captain Sun, has a clue as to where Grisia is." That seemed to snap him out of his tired state, and suddenly raise a commotion from the others. "Grisia?! You know where he is?" Blaze asked, pushing aside Earth who was standing in front of him.

"One; calm down first. Two; yes, but you can't come." As soon as I answered that, Blaze immediately began to protest. "We need someone to stay at the Temple and watch over the citizens." I sighed. "Then make someone else stay! What if you meet with ghosts on the way there? I can help!" He protested again.

"Then who would stay to guard Leaf Bud City? Knight-Captains Moon, Cloud, Metal, Stone and Storm are to stay here and watch over the citizens and defend the city from undead. So you should stay too and help them." Blaze frowned, obviously not pleased. "Then who are going?" He asked, sounding mildly annoyed.

"Me, Ice, Hell, Earth and Leaf." I replied. His eyes, if possible, brightened. Something seems wrong with that..

Stone, who I previously thought was going to be easier to deal with, also protested. "Why not bring him? You know he won't give up as easily as that... And his smile is starting to become creepy." Glancing over to Blaze, who indeed was sporting a strange smile, was standing normally at his spot.

"Fine, you can come. But, I want you to prepare your platoon and warn your Vice-Captain of this." Blaze grinned, most likely because he got away with what he wanted, and took off looking for his Vice-captain.

"I'm regretful to ask this, but what about Grisia?" Earth spoke up, looking slightly worried. "What about him?" I asked. "Well, where is he and who took him?" I froze. Should I say it? But I was told to keep it like a secret... "Someone, someone who has a grudge against the Church." Earth rolled his eyes, scoffing, "I know that it's most likely someone who had a grudge against the church. I'm asking who it is that took Grisia."

Can't you just not ask? "Apparently, the name of the kidnapper isn't known. Grisia's in Kissinger... In one of its forest lands." I answered, walking back to the Temple. "Oh yeah. Why did you ask to meet us here?" Moon called out suddenly. "Well, you all need to train." Snapping my fingers, all of their platoons, minus Blaze's, surrounded them all.

"W-wait, what are you guys doing?" Earth asked, looking at the rather sinister smirks of the Sun platoon. "Helping you train!" Some yelled. And in one quick, fluid motion everyone was surrounded and attacked. "Judgement! We won't forget this!" They shouted as they drew their swords.

I know you won't, that's why I made Blaze leave first. Knowing that Blaze was most likely to try and find a way to get revenge, or tell on me to Grisia, I made him leave.

"Don't slack off." I waved my hand at them as I entered the Sanctuary of Light, hearing them shout a few profanities and one calling out 'traitor' repeatedly. You're all at fault for slacking off these last few weeks.

I walked towards the Pope's office. Knights and clerics quickly moving to give me room, or leaving it all together. Gossip disappeared before quickly returning once I was far 'enough'.

"Did you see that? He seems to be in a much worse mood today..." Someone spoke, quietly to another. "He must be angry that Knight-Captain Sun is gone, otherwise, there's nothing that could make him angrier. He has no one to fight with!" another replied, sounding sure of their conclusion. So that's what the gossip is these days.

"'Fight with'?! Do you want him dead? Former Knight-Captain Sun couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag!" Another voice quickly said. Okay, that's just mean. "And who is talking of our former leader?" I asked, standing behind the perpetrator.

"K-Knight-Captain Judgement!" The young-looking man in front of me stuttered, turning around quickly to salute me. "I-I swear I wasn't insulting former Knight-Captain Sun!" You just admitted to doing it... "Oh? But I never said anything about insulting him, did I?" The man paled and began to make unintelligible stutters.

A crowd of people were standing several feet away in other corridors, whispering things like, "He's going to be killed...", "Poor guy...". Looks like 'Judgement knights likes bullying others' will be added to the list. "Well?" I asked, turning slightly impatient.

"I...I.. I am sorry!" He yelled, running away quickly. I returned to walking to the Pope's office, and pushed his door open. "You know, it's polite to knock." A young teenage boy, with white hair and green eyes, muttered. Quickly motioning for me to close the door.

"What's the platoons doing, beating up their Captains?" The Pope then asked, turning around to the window, pointing at the Knight-Captains and their platoons fighting. "So? You know they need to train. You know that just as much as I do." I pointed out.

"Fine, fine..." He muttered. "Oh, and what's this about you heading to Kissinger?" He asked. "Who told you?" I don't think I mentioned this to him... "My spy did. But that's not the important thing right now." ... Who the heck is your spy? "And I'm not going to tell you who that is." Wait, what?

"Why not?" The Pope shrugged. "Because, Judgement, that's a secret. Now what about Kissinger?" I'm going to remember that. Quickly remembering the real purpose of my visit, I answered his question. "We have some... Idea of where Grisia may be." I answered vaguely. "Oh really. Im guessing that you got it from Neo?" Nodding, the Pope then moved over to look at the fight taking place below.

"You know... You know why, right? Why we can't lose our Sun knight? Most especially Grisia." He suddenly asked, his back still facing me. 'Most especially Grisia?' "Because without the Sun knight, we all would have no path to follow." I answered easily. the Pope, on the other hand, had said nothing, but began to nod.

"Yes, that's true." The Pope answered. Then what was it with the Grisia thing? "Oh, nothing much... You know what, nevermind me. Prepare for your trip..." Are you hiding something? "Okay." I finally answered.

I walked out, closing the door behind me and headed for my room. My mind still thinking about what he had said.

'Most especially Grisia'

What was he hiding..?
