"This is where you explain what's going on to the rest of us." President White's voice rang from behind, reminding Lucius that the Big Four was here as well.

Lucius turned around to meet everyone's expectant gaze, waiting to hear what happened. He let out a heavy sigh as he walked over to a couch and collapsed on it.

"I felt something was wrong, and I woke up only to find Lei Fei in my room. He offered to talk and I couldn't refuse because Lia and Tracy were still asleep. I followed him to the balcony where he asked me to join him. He claimed the end of the old government is at hand; his soldiers are in position, and we can take this nation together and avenge the death of my family in the mines of Ohio." Lucius said in a voice void of emotions.

Everyone's eyes widened in shock as they listened to him speak; only President White remained calm as if he expected this.
