Chapter 30

[A/N:I Am really looking for suggestions on how to kill number 3 and his Cepan,I can't come up with good idea.It seems rescuing him thousand timea easier than killing him off.]

Alex was now training Freya and Griffin,with Six watching over,he went and opened a trunk and with smiles and tosses them each a staff as he smiled and said So,both of you spar.Let's see how far you got."

Alex crosses his arms and watches them with Six by his side, Griffin and Freya tentatively turn to

each other.Freya throws the first strike, a formal move.Griffin blocks and then swing ,but Freya doesn't block in time. He connects with her shoulder. She glares at him,which makes him a bit surprised.

Alex told Freya"

Watch him. What's he thinking?"

The bout goes on, slow at first, each taking turns -- strike,block, strike, dodge.Alex circles them as he speaks"Pay attention.You're studying his reflexes,his moves, his instincts.So don't miss anything."

Freya swings and hits Griffin's shin before he can jump.Griffin glances at Alex who just smirks and shrugs and said"That was a really nice swing."

Freya's intensity escalates with each blow each a little faster and harder than the one before.Freay unleashes a flurry of attacks on Griffin,now he starts to struggle in parrying the incoming strikes.

Alex notices the look in Freya's eyes,she was getting serious,She spins the last strike into a kick that sweeps Griffin's legs out from under him, knocking him to the ground. She pulls back and brings the staff close to his face.

Alex clapped and said"Both of you improving."Griffin gave grunt and replied"Talk about yourself,I got my ass handed to me."

Six pitch in"Freya has been training for quite a while Griffin you only started,so naturally she is better."

Alex suddenly had notification from Eve,as he smiled and Sadistic call everyone to the meeting I found something big."Six didn't know what but she nodded and left.Soon everyone was gathered in the meeting room where Alex with slight excitement said"I studied the Loralite cyrstal you guys had and I was able to get a energy out of it.The interesting this I found was that their are similar energy reading all around Earth."

Katrina who was thoughtful said"Loralite is the most powerful gemstone on Lorien, found only at its core. It was thought to only be present on Lorien,but now it seems it present on all planets in the universe,We don't know for sure.But chances are high from what you told us about Mogadore."

Alex brought up a holographic projection showing each location and said"Himalayan Mountains, Peru, Easter Island, Stonehenge, Gulf of Aden, Portugal, Alice Springs, Niagara Falls, mount hao, Zuma rock, Engelberg, and New Mexico. All these places showed these same energy signatures."

Alex knew their was the Oracle's Cavern which was in the central stone found in a hollowed-out mountain in the Himalayas.The Beacon which was considered largest Loralite stone on Earth, found at the bottom of the Gulf of Aden.The Tomb which was a Loralite stone located in Stonehenge, a Loric crypt.The Port another Loralite that has been buried underneath the desert of New Mexico.The Link a Loralite on Easter Island.The Reach - Loralite that is located at or near the Nazca Lines in Peru.

Alex spoke up getting everone attention"I found out he is after the Garde for two thing,1)It is the pendants,it seem in new mexico the Mogs found a Loric or Mayan temple which has barrier surrounding it and only garde or an Loric could get inside,that's why he is hunting you he wants the pendants and the chest."

Everyone was soaking the new info as Alex continued"The temple has Loric well just like how Lorien became great, if you put the phoenix stones and pendants inside it then you practically are not only able to jump start Earth ,but also Lorien.Each of the Garde possesses what is called the Phoenix Stones,When the Garde come of age, the Stones can be used to re-create the features of Lorien – the plant life, Loralite, the Chimærae."

 Maggie or number two questione"'But what of the Legacies? What of Lorien's true gifts?"

Alex anwsered"Those, too, will come once Lorien is awoken,The Phoenix Stones, the pendants, everything has a purpose. When they are committed to the Earth in the Elders' Sanctuary, Lorien will live once again."

 Freya asked "Where is this Sanctuary, Alex?'

Alex composed himself and replied"Calakmul.Just like I said Only the Garde may enter.It's an ancient Mayan city located in southeast Mexico,'

There's a hopeful glimmer in his eyes. Everyone's stunned faces peer back at him, none of them quite done digesting what they just heard.

Six raises his hand, frowning"Why didn't we know any of this?'Why didn't the Elders tell us? Or our Cêpans? If this is all so important, why keep us in the dark?'

 Katrina answered " The Mogadorian invasion caught the Elders off guard. You were rushed to Earth,we were completely unprepared as well. Your survival was top priority.The one who had knowledge of all this the Phoenix Stones, your pendants, the Sanctuary was probably Henri he was our leader,it was probably meant to be revealed when you came of age, once you had Legacies and were ready to fight. To tell you before that would've made your secrets too vulnerable. Although thought the mogs would hunt us down like this,so I guess that backfired."

This made all the garde and Cepan surprised they never thought this is why the chest was entrusted to them,not their was hope in their eyes that their planet could be revived.But they needed all the others for this,but everyone except 2 are the same location rest went underground, completely off radar.

The temple was originally built by the Elders and the humans, with the chamber beneath being built to protect the Garde on Earth. It was also built so the Garde coming to Earth would be able to jumpstart Lorien using their Phoenix Stones inside the Loric Chests.It was something none of the cepan other than Henri knew,they didn't know this.
