The three adults stare at him as if he just stabbed them. "Alejandro Castillo, did what? But he's dead, isn't he?" Katana asked Jake in shock.
Yes, he is, but he came to us as a ghost and I ended up destroying the warehouse we just came from. He killed Rosaline and taunted me into shifting." Jake tells them, his anger starting to rise again.
"What do you mean 'he taunted you into shifting'?" Shikamaru asks him, his voice hinting at anger and annoyance.
"He said, 'what would you do if I said that our little Rosaline waited too long for her prince to come and save her. That she no longer cared what happened to her and then, suddenly, she could no longer breathe?' That's what he said then I lost it." Jake said trying to keep his anger u fee control.
Riku, Shikamaru, and Katana looked towards the destroyed warehouse, "Destroying the warehouse where he kept you captive in the process. We need to find Riley before it's too late. Do you know where she is?" Katana asked Jake without looked at him.
"I have an idea about where she is, but I'm not completely sure if she's there."
The four of them share a knowing look.
"The Secret Warehouse is the only place she could be and considering that Jake was taken to another warehouse she might be already dead or she's been wounds badly." Riku said as his watch started to ring. He stepped away from them to answer the call, "Hello?" He asked.
"It's been awhile, Commander Riku Saito."
Riku tensed up instantly, "Alejandro, where is Riley Hiroshi?"
"Don't worry she's still alive. By the way, how is our little Jake doing? He's not dead, now is he?" Alejandro asked as his laugh sent shivers down Riku's spine.
"No, he's not, actually he's here with me right now. You don't mind talking to him now, do you?" Riku asked walking back to Hake and the two officers.
"I don't know about that, but..." Alejandro's voice faded as if he was considering something.
"But what?" Riku asked in annoyance.
"But, little Riley, is starting to give up, you wouldn't want that, now would you?"
"You bastard! Leave her alone!" Jake growled hearing the smile in Alejandro's voice as he spoke.
"I haven't done anything Jake, well, at least not yet I haven't," Alejandro laughed darkly.
"Leave. Her. Alone! She has nothing to do with the fight we're fighting! This fight is between us not her; you got that Alejandro?!" Jake exclaimed unable to hold on to his anger any longer.
"All right, all right, I'll leave her alone, but you should hurry Jake, your time's running out." Alejandro laughed then ended the call.
"We're going now! I can't stand idly by while Riley could be getting hurt and broken by that...that bastard!" Jake yelled as his eyes started to turn a deep red with golden rings around the irises.
"Calm down Jake, we'll get to her before it's too late," Riku told him. "Let's go!" Riku yelled and they all run to The Secret Warehouse.
