..... and finally reached the Queen.
-" Queen Cleo, I've finally reached you. I know this might be a bad timing, but Willy and I found something very important and we had to share it with you", - since Kviz ran non-stop for a long time, his voice was shaking and you could his heavy breathes.
-" Kviz, it is always a pleasure to see you. But what brings you here? What could be important enough that you would run all this way?", - Queen Cleo said surprised.
-" My Queen, you do remmember your last talk with General Sinth, correct, and that he was not like himself? Well, it seems that our worst fears have taken shape. We have been backstabbed. Look at what i have found!"
Kviz did not waste any time. He took out a tiny disk and put it into the holograph. Suddenly a huge blueprint of the Shadow Strikers appeared. At the bottom right a small and in the corner, a plan appeared that shocked Cleo.
- "This can not be.... Sinth would never do that.... He could never side with Shadows... Even Sith are afraid of them..." ,- Cleo could hardly talk. The information she had seen literally took her breath away. - "Kviz, if this information..... is true, we must act immediately. Kviz and Willy, I hope you both understand the importance of this. You must not share this information! Gather only the most trusted and we will leave at once. I don't think we have chances at Xatris, because our military is being controlled by our generals, not the royal family. Talk to Colonel Travis. He is the only colonel to be trusted" - Cleo got more and more confidence and with the last words you could feel, that she was herself again.
- " It shall be done", - Willy said firmly.
- "Your wish is our command, Cleo" , - Kviz agreed with Willy.
Both of them knew how time was important right now, so they wasted non of it and left right away.

--------------------------------------------

- "Everything is going according to plan, Lord Shadow", - Sinth was completely confident about his plan and did not show any doubts.
- "I hope you are right, General",- said Lord Shadow obviously unhappy - "Remmember, that our race is almost extinct and we do not take losses kindly. Do not fail me, or this task shall be your last, General"
And Lord Shadow left the room again and came back to his chambers so he could restore his powers and get ready for the fight, which was unavoidable. "I know you are coming, but I will be ready" those were the last words before Lord Shadow started to rest.

----------------------------------------------

As soon as Willy and Kviz left the Queen, they hurried to find Colonel Travis. They knew where to find him, but when they were almost there, Willy stopped Kviz.
- "Kviz, you know I do not talk too much, but I do not think all that Colonel Travis idea is so great. Remmember that he used to a be a bounty hunter and do not forget that he knows how to use the force. I do not trust him" - Willy was dead serrious
- "I know what you mean, but we can not do anything else. If the Queen trusts him, he must be ok. Lets just hope it will all turn out ok and we can end this"....
