End Of The Meeting

Anuka's question is simple, why did Jason do this, what is the reason for him to start this war.

"It's simple Anuka, it's for freedom"

Jason said.

"Freedom?"

Anuka didn't understand what Jason meant.

"Tell me have you obtained Freedom, Anuka?"

Jason asked.

"I think so, I can go anywhere, do things I want and no one will question me"

Anuka said.

"So in this world, no one can oppose you, tell me if there is someone who can stop you from doing what you want to do?"

Jason said.

"There are, my father, the elders of my house and one who has a standing above me"

Anuka said.

"Then you don't have freedom"

Jason said.

"How so? they never stopped me from doing what I want?"

Anuka said.

"Tell, me if you fell in love with a lowly human, who is at the bottom, will this family of yours allow you to do so, or will they give you your freedom to marry this human?"

Jason asked as he looked into Anuka's eyes.

"This...I don't know"

Anuka said she realized how much power she carries, even though her family has pampered her for ages they won't let her marry someone random of her choice, her marriage can bring her family great benefits if she gets married to another big family.

"See, people think they are independent and can do whatever they want, they think they are independent and have the right to choose their leader, that is where they are wrong, they are never free, they are still trying to be under a leader, Freedom is something when you don't have anyone that can hold you back"

Jason said and sipped his wine once again, Anuka said nothing, she just looked at Jason.

"When I was small, my life was controlled, but I wanted to be free and so I did, then I realized there are still people out there that are controlling the masses, including me.

So I started this small quest and it grew and grew until I reached the top, Freyton became my base, no one could touch me, but I didn't go public, I decided to hide and rule so I won't be tied down, I let others take over and control the areas, they didn't know their life is controlled by me.

Freedom is something that I starve for, one day I realized that I was free and got bored, Freyton became a zone that couldn't be controlled because of me, there was no one in control except me, I got bored.

Then it happened, I realized how big this universe really is, my struggle for Freedom still has a long way to go, I won't stop until everything is underneath my feet, that is my freedom, to be the controller, not the one being controlled.

Anuka just listened, she felt something, she always thought there was something holding her, she never realized what it was but today she listened to Jason.

She realized what it was that was holding her back.

"Jason, you want to be the ruler?"

Anuka asked.

"No Anuka, a ruler is someone who wants to rule, I want to control just like I am doing now, being a Phantom that I am, no one will know about me but their life will be in my hands and they will be beneath my feet"

Jason said.

Hearing him Anuka's heart started to beat a little faster, she looked at Jason and for some reason, she wanted to see what this man in front of her will do.

"Jason, let me help you"

Anuka said.

Hearing her Jason turned towards her and looked into her eyes to see if she is being genuine.

"Tell me why do you want to help me?"

Jason asked.

"Because we are partners, and this image of Freedom that you pictured for your self, I want to experience as well"

Anuka said.

Hearing her Jason smiled.

'I think I found a great partner'

Jason though and got up and walked in front of Anuka.

Anuka also got up from her seat and stood in front of Jason, they looked into each other's eyes and smiled, Jason shook her hand and kissed it.

"I am grateful for this partnership, I hope it brings us great things"

Jason said.

"I wish the same"

Anuka said, then they hugged and stepped back.

Jason took one final look at Anuka and her body and appreciated it.

"Do you like what you see?"

She asked.

"Indeed, but I am sad because I won't be able to see it for quite a long time I guess"

Jason said.

"Don't worry about it, I might surprise you once or twice"

Anuka giggled.

"Then I will be waiting for those surprises them"

Jason said and picked his phone to call Alpha and the group, Anuka also informed Charles to return back, Jason and Anuka wore their mask once again and saw the Seven and Charles coming back.

"Alpha, load the crystals inside that container into ours and return it back to the warehouse"

Jason said and pointed at the massive container that Charles took out from the rift in mid-air.

For now, Alpha and the group are still silent and didn't question anything, they knew their boss will explain to them what happened today.

They soon got to work, Charles also stored the Blue Crystals into the rift he opened in mid-air.

The Seven were stunned by what they are carrying, they had never seen stones like this before but they had to hold back their curiosity and do what they were told to.

Jason and Anuka looked at each other one last time.

"I will find something for the seven, don't worry"

Anuka said.

"I will be looking forward to it"

Jason said, Anuka nodded and looked at Charles, he then cut down space in front of his walked into it along with Anuka, they left their expensive car in while they had arrived there.

Jason gave the car to Alpha and let him decide what to do with it.

"Ok, we should head back".
