Nathaniel halted his steps and turned to his brother, surprise etched on Nathaniel's face. "Huh? How?"

Adrian followed suit and met his gaze. "Well, I could tell just by looking at your face. You wear your emotions on your sleeve." 

Nathaniel couldn't help but feel dumbfounded. "Is it really that obvious?"

Adrian grinned. "Yeah, that's why I've been planning all of this. We can't allow them to wreak havoc on our land, can we?"
