The honcho swallowed hard as all the cat gods huddled together. ‘ Oh gods,'the foreman thought, ‘ please reserve your brethren to help us in the coming tryout and battle.'Still afraid to go up the boss patiently awaited the decision of Cit-Chac-Coh and his supporter. They must be as he was commanding all of them.

Ambrose turned back to the chief to ask a few more dubiousness. He sighed when he noticed that the man was still on his genu. `` stall great boss of the hoi polloi. '' Ambrose commanded. `` We have much to talk about about this enemy. ''

The chief nodded as he got off his knees. Ambrose looked at his knight and mates as he shifted back to his homo phase. All of them again wore a dismay expression but quickly nodded as they also shifted. The chief 's mouth dropped clear as he could only gaze at them. Then he nodded yes, they were indeed the deity of old.

A import later the chief's sentry duty came back in bowing low to the head. St. Ambrose 's eyes narrowed as he thought a present moment. `` You are n't the nohchil are you ? The way you are dressed I had thought you were. You are in fact the ahau are n't you ? ''

The man 's middle went wide as he bowed to Ambrose nodding his mind. `` I am honored that you recognize me my overlord. '' The man quickly turned to the guard duty whispering to them. Each in turn, turned to stare at Ambrose, his horse and his mates their mouths gaping opened.

'' This is not to leave alone this room ! They are to help us to a new acres. Do not displease him ! '' The man said.

Both Twitty and Gleena were staring at Ambrose. They both had patiently waited for him to stop. `` You used two ancient Book that we do n't discern. '' Twitty stated.

'' Yes, delight what do they imply. I know that you had much training in the history of our people. I have also though obviously nowhere as much as you. '' Glenna told St. Ambrose.

Ambrose turned to the both of them a little surprised when no one knew of the two run-in that he 'd verbalize. Pulling all of them aside Ambrose explained. `` I was thinking that he was the chief of this urban center. I had forgotten that the gaffer were never afford the regard that this man has. I had been calling him a nohchil or chief in the ancient terminology, it means chief. ''

Roth nodded, `` a very old word indeed. I have n't heard many words of the ancient linguistic process in many quants. What is the other tidings sire ? ''

'' Ahau, a word just as old, '' here Saint Ambrose looked over at the man talking to his guards. `` It means king, I had forgotten that all city-states had a king. '' Thinking a moment Ambrose nodded, `` I believe that the king here is Wak Chan K'awiil, he was king when nearly of the urban center disappeared. We also seem to be further back than we at showtime cerebration. I believe we are one hundred and thirty five more quants back than we at 1st view. ''

'' What ! ! ? '' Twitty almost shouted. `` I was having a hard enough time thinking we were four hundred forty six and a half quants back in prison term. Now you 're saying we are even further ? ! ! ''

Ambrose tried to not smile as he could see that both Twitty and Glenna were starting to get frustrated. `` Right now I think it 's far more important that we save this city. If I 'm right this is the city of Tikal. They are about to be attacked by the neighboring city-state of Calakmul or Caracol. Though it may have been both of them. Tikal being as weak as it is, both might make attacked. ''

Roth, Gwayne, and Gregor were nodding agreement to the appraisal of the situation. `` forefather we could actually turn the tide of the conflict. '' Philip Roth started then stopped seeing the look of absorption on Saint Ambrose 's face. `` I am sorry if I over abuse sire. '' Philip Milton Roth quickly said.

Ambrose shook his foreland as he looked up at Roth. `` It 's not that you over stepped Roth, I 'm just trying to remember the history of this place. I am also crossing it with the history of our own worlds. '' With a suspire Saint Ambrose finally reached a close. `` I 'm afraid we ca n't do that Roth. If this is Tikal as I think it is, it will fall in the next two to three mintons. As account goes this HAS to happen. ''

Gregor and Gwayne 's mouths were hanging open as they were about to protest. Roth stepped up taking the both of them to the side. There he explained that Ambrose had no alternative this had to come about for them to prove the beginning of their own worlds. Both hung their heads realizing that Roth was aright, even so neither of them were felicitous about it in the least.

Ambrose sighed they needed to start taking everyone out of here as fast as potential. Pulling a small comprehensive examination from his smash Ambrose quietly contacted Skylos. `` Skylos ! We need to find a way to transport More. ''

'' Yes forefather, I 've been trying to remove what I could to make more way. At present I think we can take one hundred seventy five. I am taking a few of the paries down that I am hoping will afford enough room for XX five more. Beyond that sire I do n't think we can do any more. '' Skylos advised Ambrose.

'' Excellent commanding officer ! How long before we can start to propel them ? I 'm afraid we only have possibly two mintons, three if we 're lucky. '' Ambrose told the Commander.

'' If I can get the residual of them out perhaps a toton. I need help if you want it faster, Thomas the doubting Apostle ca n't do much as he 's still in the knitter. '' Skylos replied.

'' Alright we 'll all be back soon. '' Saint Ambrose clicked off. Going to his horse and partner Ambrose told all of them then went to the king. `` We have to go prepare that which we will have the people to the other property with. We will bring it near the edge of the urban center. Please have as many ready to go as you can. ''

The Rex looked at Ambrose with wide oculus. `` I will do as you command O large Cit-Chac-Coh. All will be ready when you return. We are also preparing to keep our foe away while you take the rest away to safety device. '' Here the king and his safeguard bowed low to Ambrose and his knights. `` Your will be done. ''

St. Ambrose could only roll his eyes after the king said this. Especially after they all bowed to him. Shaking his head Saint Ambrose set out with the rest of his chemical group following. Finally out of sight of the metropolis Saint Ambrose and the others shifted sort, racing for the ship. Half a toton later they were ready.

'' Alright Skylos I want the ship on the bound of the urban center. I just hope the male monarch has them gear up. '' Ambrose said.

'' Yes forefather. '' Skylos said as he started bringing the bridge live. `` Queen Twitty, if you could take attitude dominance we should be there in a specton. ''

'' Everything looking ripe, now leveling off. We are free of all obstructions, make to proceed commander. '' Twitty replied.

'' Good moving to place prison term, half a specton. '' Skylos said. A minute later they were setting down. Looking out Ambrose saw that more than than a few hundred were waiting. Stepping out Ambrose was met by the king. `` You have done well king Wak Chan K'awiil. '' The king 's mouth dropped open then he nodded.

'' We will remain with them until we have to check our enemies advancement. '' The business leader told Ambrose.

'' We will take as many as we can. Die well in the engagement, die with honor king Wak Chan K'awiil. Your gens will always be remembered. '' Ambrose told the king.

The Billie Jean King and his men all smiled bowing. `` You give us the peachy honor Lord Cit-Chac-Coh. We will send as many of our enemy to underworld knuckle down pits as we can. There they can work all timeless existence to fulfill your glory ! '' All the men were quiet as Ambrose nodded shifting to his feline form. Then there was a wondrous cheerfulness as Ambrose began to move people into the ship.

Stopping everyone a moment Ambrose searched the sea of people. `` I need the healer Hippacamp and his girl Timora with this first chemical group ! '' The throng of hoi polloi separated as both the mass that Ambrose had called walked to the ship. `` I need the both of you to be there maiden watching over all as they arrive. ''

Both Hippacamp and Timora nodded as they moved into the rapidly fill ship. Stopping Timora asked, `` Lord ? Will it take long to reach our new home ? ''

Ambrose was taken back as this was the first clip anyone had felt brave enough to ask. `` It wo n't involve that foresightful. We are hoping to have many moved before the day is over. ''

Timora nodded as she stepped in far with her father. Ambrose looked at the number of mass packed into the ship. Sighing he wished they had another ship to quicken things along.

Not long after Ambrose stopped those that were entering. Stepping out he again pulled his comp. Alright Skylos that's all get them there and back as soon as potential. ''

'' Yes sire, '' came Skylos representative. `` I 'll return just as soon as potential. '' With that St. Ambrose stepped back as the ship accelerated then was gone.

Ambrose turned back to those that were still there. Then walked to the king. `` I 'm sorry we ca n't take more. I want to get as many out of here today as I can. That way if the others attack Oklahoman, then most will be gone. ``

The king was nodding his agreement then turned to Ambrose. `` Lord Cit-Chac-Coh the fact that as many are safe now as there are, makes my middle hang glide that we have saved that many. Any more after this will only allow an even substantial future for our people. Yes Lord our people. '' The king said when he saw Ambrose 's eyes spring up encompassing.

'' I will do all I can for the the great unwashed king Wak Chan K'awiil. As I said they and my people are closely related. '' Ambrose said even though he noticed that the king was hardly hearing anything Ambrose said.

Ambrose walked to his mates, Paladins and his three knights that were there. Roth noticed him approaching kneeling before him. `` I see you moving with a determined gait sire. I take it you have a mission for us ? ''

Ambrose smiled slightly it was just like Roth to almost have it away what he had in idea. Shaking his head Ambrose pulled all of them close as he described what he wanted them all to do.

It was almost a half toton later that Ambrose looked up at the approaching of the star cruiser. Landing, Ambrose 's comm. went off. `` Almost ready for another set father. '' Then the door opened with Skylos stepping out. Walking up to St. Ambrose Skylos knelt. I 'm sorry sire but the tripper was difficult. I will postulate Queen Twitty to accompany me. It might also assist if you also come along. The passenger were very uncertain when you did n't accompany us. ''

Grabbing his comm. Ambrose called Twitty back. A few moments later she appeared. Smiling large she shook her paw at Skylos, `` I told you it was almost impossible without help. You are as bad as my mate ! Never asking for avail. How we survived is beyond me ! ''

Ambrose looked at a smiling Skylos as he rolled his middle. `` sufficiency Twitty ! We are all three going this meter. I am apparently needed to keep those on board calmer. '' Twitty nodded her heading as she looked Ambrose up and down. Ok she thought she could agree with that judgment of Ambrose.

Shaking his head Saint Ambrose watched the two of them enter then he started to load more multitude. Not long after Ambrose stepped in securing the door. A bit later they were distance bound accelerating toward Xendra. With a sizing Ambrose startled to relax, 'til suddenly the ship was rocking from turbulence.

'' What 's going on ? `` Ambrose asked of Skylos on the comm.

'' I 'm not sure sire, detecting hard waves of energy on the same route as the one we were on when we first arrived. '' Skylos returned a moment later.

'' Are we in any peril ? '' Ambrose asked.

'' No father, not at the moment though when we return if they are stronger we might have got trouble. '' Came Skylos reply.

'' Alright observe an eye on it. Last matter we need is to get trapped here. '' Ambrose told him.

'' I completely agree sire. '' St. Ambrose hears Twitty say.

Ambrose was nodding as he saw that almost of the citizenry there were scared. It seemed as long as they could see him they were a lot tranquil than it appeared they actually were.

It was ten spectons later that Ambrose heard the ship start to slacken as it approached Xendra. `` Everyone please prepare to leave the ship. Those that left before are there waiting for you. ''

A few consequence later the threshold opened as this set of people moved out the door. Timora was there when the last of the passenger left. `` Sire we are setting up shelters for now. A few of the men have said that they will start fully tomorrow. testament you and your assistants be able to help us afterward ? ''

Saint Ambrose was in thought when Twitty 's school principal appeared from the door. `` Of path we will ! How could you or them think otherwise ? '' Twitty volunteered.

Ambrose 's head snapped toward Twitty as he was giving her are you crazy search. `` As I told everyone before we will serve where we can. This is your home now not ours, though I and them wish well for your success here. ''

Timora was looking back and forth between Ambrose and Twitty. Conflicting emotions crossing her case. Bowing low Timora told the both of them, `` I thank you Lord Cit-Chac-Coh. Just having you here now had calmed a with child many. I just hope that this bonny weather holds out 'til all are here. '' With that she walked away as Saint Ambrose approached Twitty.

trembling her head she quickly recognized the face on St. Ambrose 's facial expression. Holding up her paw Saint Ambrose stopped in front of her. `` outset off I know that had you no dubiety you would bear said as a good deal. Bringing them here is n't enough, they need hope for the hereafter and the courage I know that you and you alone can instill in them. ''

Ambrose sighed then nodded, he knew as well that she was speaking nothing but the truth. `` Alright, let 's get another lode of them here. The more the better. four hundred is a paltry drop compared to how many are there still. ''

Both boarded the ship as Skylos took to space again. They were almost back to earth when Skylos started to lour then was adjusting their way of life. `` Sire I am still picking up those unknown energy indication. It appears that the closer we get the stronger they get. ''

'' Running a elaborated scan now sire we should induce an answer soon. '' Twitty relayed to Ambrose.

'' Good though I hope that whatever it is does n't hold up us. We have to get as many as we can to Xendra. I fear that not taking all but those that wish to stay and fight could import disaster for all of us. '' Ambrose replied.

'' We are doing all we can father though as I feared it is growing a lot impregnable now. We may have to stop short and wait it out. I know any holdup is bad father, it appears we have no pick. '' Skylos told Ambrose.

Ambrose heard the engines start to power down as he went to the program line deck. Looking out he could see that they were n't that far from solid ground. What in the Scheol was this energy that was starting to become seeable. Looking harder St. Ambrose suddenly felt a nudging at the back of his intellect. This was starting to look and flavor associate.

Sitting behind the Skylos and Twitty Ambrose was suddenly starting to sense dizzy. Outside the DOE was starting to work what looked like a turning tunnel. Barely able to look up Saint Ambrose 's center went all-inclusive as the feeling became very associate !

Gasping at the sudden pain Saint Ambrose gritted his dentition as he told a start Skylos and Twitty. `` cover away slowly, very slowly. It appears that we were n't the only ones that were caught in what brought us here. '' With a groan Ambrose laid back as outside the ship was starting to resemble chaos.

'' In the center of the energy ! '' Skylos was yelling as massive total of zip were starting to be discharged. Skylos was still backing off glad that Ambrose had warned them. Any of the vitality dismission could have crippled the ship again.

All middle were drawn to the belittled dark conformation that was coming through the center of the swirling Energy Department. `` Wait ! '' Twitty said as she took a closer face. I think I see two embodiment ! unusual I think I have seen those shapes before ! ''

Ambrose tried to raise his head even thought the whole room was spinning. The harder he tried it seemed the weaker he got. Damn this was almost as bad as before !

'' time lag ! '' Ambrose managed to heave out when he saw Skylos and Twitty getting ready to start the locomotive to proceed closer. Let the vortex close, recollect when we came through. '' Falling on the level Saint Ambrose could feel the vigour and the strain he was feeling starting to decrease.

Skylos looked at Ambrose a instant later then at Twitty. `` Had we done what we were going to, we 'd be close to powerless. Thank you sire, I believe you saved us again. ''

Twitty was looking at the readings nodding her head. `` Sire ? It appears that we have two ships coming through. I 'm afraid I do n't recognize their conformation. ''

Skylos was nodding agreement when his center went wide. `` I do trust those are of the Mandrian fleet that was aiding us before all this started. ''

Twitty was looking at the approaching physical body Harder. Then she also started to smile and nod. Finally crystalize of the swirling energy, the tunnel collapsed. Ambrose gave a suspiration of embossment as he felt the weakness rapidly leaving him.

Standing up Ambrose leaned against the wall to bring in his caput. `` Skylos we need to ... '' Ambrose started.

Suddenly a washy signal came through. `` Mandrian fleet this instruction one calling ! Jankuis are you getting anything ? '' Ambrose 's center went wide, Typree ? How in the hell had he gotten here ?

'' No sire I ... Sire ! Is n't that the king Ambrose 's ship ? '' They heard an arouse and discombobulate Jankuis shout.

'' first cousin ?"They heard Typree say.

'' Energy has dissipated sire. I am reading business leader failure in both ships. Moving to intercept, we should be docked in XV tintons ! '' Skylos said finding his voice.
'' good, the sooner the better. '' Ambrose said as he watched both ships as they went iniquity .
