Ambrose and his party moved swiftly back into the boundaries of Tikal. As they approached the Billie Jean Moffitt King and his men the king breathed a sigh of relief.

'' We are glad to see you back amongst us Creator. Many of the men were afraid that you might have abandoned us and our metropolis. I assured them that you had a architectural plan to save most of the urban center. It did n't help that you were gone as long as you were lord. '' The Martin Luther King Jr. told them.

Ambrose nodded then stood before them, `` as I said before I am here for a few more of your solar day. I intend to save as many of the city as I can. If I could I would be here to battle your opposition with you. I am afraid this I can not do, the others have plans for this city. conflict and die well Warriors of the great metropolis of Tikal. ``

A peachy sunniness went up from all those there as they started to tone Cit-Chac-Coh as Ambrose and his party moved off toward the metropolis it 's self.

'' Skylos ?"Ambrose said when they were out of ear shot of the big businessman and the warriors. `` Are we secretive yet ? ``

'' Almost there forefather, should n't be more than than another specton or two. I have repaired all I can the ship 's auto is finishing the rest. '' Skylos replied.

'' We need to get going as soon as possible. I might have gained us another half minton though I 'm not sure as shooting. I 'll be glad to be moving them again. '' Ambrose told Skylos.

'' Yes father I understand, '' Skylos said then there was a hissing coming from further back from the com. `` I have to go it appears that the others are anxious to get going also. ``

Suddenly in the ground Ambrose heard Twitty yelling, `` Skylos ! We have work to do ! I do not intend to stay here the sleep of my life. Who are you talking to ? ``

'' As I said sire I have to go. '' Skylos replied.

'' forefather ? '' Ambrose heard Twitty yell. `` Paraguay tea, '' Twitty said as she snatched the com from Skylos. `` Unless you intend to stay here when this place is over run, please do n't disturb our piece of work again ! '' With that the com went abruptly as Ambrose started to laugh.

turn back he spoke to Philip Roth and the rest of his knights. `` It appears that we are almost set to go again. If we can bar former interrupt pile we should barely have enough time to complete this. ``

All of them nodded as they ran to their placement, turning back toward the metropolis Saint Ambrose hoped they could get all of them. It was a quarter toton later that Skylos informed Ambrose that they were ready to go.

A moment later Adina walked up to Ambrose, `` Cousin I know that you feel that the people would be calm if you went. I am feeling that there is a great unrest with those that are staying and waiting. Perhaps you should speak to them. I am surely those that are going can transmit Hippacamp back. ``

Ambrose 's middle went broad then he was nodding in agreement with her. `` I see your percentage point Adina, I am also glad that your spokesperson has finally returned. ``

Adina was eyeing Ambrose with her eyes narrowed not for sure if she could believe him or not. `` I am happy also cousin, though I am not sure if I can truly believe you. I know you are not like my comrade though you are a male. Please forgive me you are different yet it is heavily to trust that you are that different. ``

Ambrose 's face held a smell of shock then he bowed to Adina who gasped in surprise. `` I apologize for you having dubiety cousin. I 'll try to not do that again. ``

Adina was staring at Saint Ambrose even harder it truly appeared as if he was telling the complete trueness. Then a radiant grin lit upon her boldness. `` Thank you cousin, if you can achieve that then I will do everything for you I can, always. ``

St. Ambrose could only nod at her after her declaration. `` Thank you cousin, as I said I will do all I can to not give you doubts again. ``

Adina was nodding with a bombastic smile on her face as she led Saint Ambrose to a large clear expanse of the city. Looking around as they broke into the open Ambrose could only stare at Adina.

'' What is this ? '' Ambrose said indicating the Brobdingnagian throng of people that were waiting there.

'' I thought you might concur with me on this so I had the multitude converge here. '' Adina told Ambrose.

Still hardly believing his eyes Saint Ambrose thought for a few minute. `` undecomposed people of Tikal. I know you feel better when I travel with you. I also know that many who are here still have fears. I will soon get off Hippacamp to serve assuage your fears. '' A mighty roar went up as Ambrose nodded to all there.

turning Saint Ambrose saw that Adina had another Brobdingnagian smiling glued to her human face. `` By the great feline ! You are such a brawny talker. I am so beaming that you will guide the realm. ``

Sighing Saint Ambrose nodded then said, `` I hope that I will, we first have to return. As you remember the finale metre this almost drained me. ``

'' I remember, though as you pointed out each time you use it, the succeeding time you are solid. Besides, '' here she paused, `` you wo n't be doing more than one thing like last sentence. '' Then almost in a whisper she said. `` I pray to the cracking feline you are n't required nor have to. ``

Ambrose 's optic went wide then he nodded accord. `` I am hoping also cousin ; I personally do n't want to die before I can do any practiced. ``

Adina 's look was shocked then it held anger as she spit, `` Do n't joke about that cousin ! You are far unattackable than Church Father was, you 'll make it ; that I am sure enough of. '' Then she sided up to Ambrose purring, rubbing her case on his hand. `` We all have to survive, you more than than the balance of us. ``

St. Ambrose watched her for a moment then pulled his had back pulling her face up. `` We are all just as of import, think of that. I do n't want to imagine that I 'll throw to punish you when this is done. ``

A look of seismic disturbance registered on Adina 's face, `` Punishment ? What are you talking about cousin ? ``

'' I learned of it while I was on earth though somewhat rude, this seemed quite effective. '' Saint Ambrose told her.

'' primitive ? You mean savage what was this punishment called ? '' Adina smirked as she replied.

'' It was called a spanking though primitive I did n't find it uncivilized at all. Quite the more, at times even sexual, '' Saint Ambrose replied a immense smile on his face.

Adina still unsure pressed on, `` So this penalty was a normal thing for all on dry land ? ``

Here Saint Ambrose smiled wider, `` No it seemed to be reserved More for misbehaving children. '' Ambrose 's eye then looked more intensely at Adina.

'' cousin ! I am no tike I ... '' Adina started.

Another articulation came from behind both of them startling Adina, `` Hmmmm cousin a p'uchik might do well in this case. '' The voice of Typree said.

Adina 's mouth dropped receptive as her eyes narrowed looking at her brother then flitting quickly to Ambrose. `` You would n't dare ! I am over xviii summer you therefore have no properly even as baron of our earth ! ``

'' In that respect you are right though as big businessman of the realm, our cousin has more than the right. Besides, '' here Typree 's boldness held a devilish grin."You really do merit it ! ``

Adina 's teeth bared as she growled at low her brother then Ambrose. `` I do not deserve such ... ''

Ambrose had heard enough as he swiftly had Adina over his lap, pounding his flatten out paw on her hind quarters. Typree had started to chuckle 'til Ambrose sent him a look that almost made his blood freeze.

Finally finished Ambrose stood Adina growling at her. `` You are a princess of the realm. It 's about time you started acting like it ! You ca n't keep carrying on like the little child that you once were. ``

Adina more embarrassed than hurt lowered her promontory tears falling from her heart softly growled, `` I will remember cousin, my king. '' Rubbing her hind end she swiftly made her way away from the others.

Standing Saint Ambrose turned toward Typree growling he said, `` Had I not stopped you she might have committed a crime that I 'd deliver to severely penalize her for. You also are no longer a child cousin ; you also need to study a mate. Alone the line can not continue, and I for one do not need another contest to send another on the can. I might cause to kill them all. ``

Typree gulped as all that his first cousin had said was rightful. `` What of Adina ? It has been a wax time job with her AND the realm. ``

St. Ambrose 's face broke out in a tumid smile as he stated. `` I think she wo n't be a problem much longer. Take what I said to affection, happen a checkmate when we return or would you favour I find you one ? ``

'' NO ! '' Typree quickly shouted shaking remembering eld ago when Saint Ambrose had found him a female person. Still shaking he replied, `` I 'll begin as soon as I return. '' Typree said with a sigh.

Ambrose clapped his bridge player on his cousin 's back, `` It will pee-pee things far easier though at metre far more complicated. I am sure I 'll be finding that out as soon as all of this is over. Having a spouse is much like an irritating babe only there are more benefit. ``

Typree was nodding then looked at his first cousin with a strange look. `` Cousin you have mates yet you have n't mated yet ? By the great feline no wonder you are frustrated ! ``

'' As I said first cousin there is far too lots to do at the moment to ruminate such things. Plus there is a traitor out there that needs to die as soon as potential ! '' Ambrose said as he growled swiping at a stone bulwark taking a expectant clod out of it as his cat form slipped to the surface.

Typree was agreeing his eyes widely when he saw his first cousin turn a loss control a moment. `` We 'll get him cousin, we 'll get him. ``

Both headed toward their ships as Ambrose could see they were almost ready to go.

It was a grueling two twenty-four hours later as Ambrose awoke to the ship landing place. At the last tally they had finally gotten fifty two hundred the outset day with all the repairs that had delayed them. These go two had Saint Ambrose feeling better. As of this trip they had moved twenty eight chiliad, five hundred forty. St. Ambrose could experience almost one-half of what had felt faulty finally slipping where it should be.

With a sigh Ambrose watched another load of multitude move onto the ship. They had almost half of those were left in the city. So many had died before they 'd arrived, looking at his arm he just hoped that they had enough ancestry to help all of them. The last few thousand were going to sustain a few Clarence Day to wait before they had any more.

Shaking his head he hated not using his blood nor his cousins. As he remembered his family was the only ace he knew of that had these gifts as Adina had said, or curses as Typree had said. Thinking of Adina he 'd not seen much of her since her 'lesson'had occurred. Nothing more than an show each sentence ; she appeared to be exhausted as she rendered aid to those still there.

All of his horse had told him that the surrounding U. S. Army had withdrawn a bit after his visit to them. ‘ right,'Ambrose thought, ‘ no need to kill those that kept their word.'Then his thoughts turned to his two uncles as his rip pounded. To think that they were as envious as they were.

This time it was Skylos that was backing away as he saw Ambrose human body parapraxis into his cat work his tenacious claws scarring the tough inner wall of the ship. Shaking his head he knew the Riley B King was impregnable though not this strong.

By the end of the third day Ambrose could see that the endurance of everyone was starting to wear fragile. They had just finished with their finally load for that day. Ambrose nodded he could see the fatigue on all of their faces. This was going far beyond duty. They all knew what was at stake plus their good sense of superbia was also pushing them on.

Grabbing his com St. Ambrose contacted his cousin, `` cousin-german ? We have to complete this soon. ``

'' We will cousin ; I just hope we have enough of them to make believe a difference. '' Typree answered. `` By the way have you see Adina ? > I have n't heard from her in a few days most odd. I ... ''

< I am still here brother ; I am trying to keep all those still here calm. They are worried that they will die with no hazard to go. I have been assuring them that they will not be left, that Cit-Chac-Coh would not allow that to happen. > Came Adina 's tired thoughts.

Ambrose smiled as more people started to move onboard. < I am majestic of you cousin your natural action make me proud as I am surely they would your mother and father. You are worthy of the title of princess, perhaps more. > ''

A happy gasp from Adina made Ambrose smile more. < What are you ... > Adina started.

< I said perhaps after all this is over. > Ambrose told her expecting her to question more. Un-expectantly she told him thank you then was still. ‘ My, my,'Ambrose thought, ‘ perhaps I should hold spanked her sooner.'

'' full cousin, '' Saint Ambrose spoke into the com again. `` We need to birth Sir Thomas More rest between shifts with everyone. None of us will be any good if we crash because we are half numb. I want all crews to divide in one-half, at least eight hours of rest and eternal rest. ``

'' Good maybe they will be calmer now. Every one of them are as scratchy as if they had their feline catnap disturbed. I 'll tell them at once, they 'll obey knowing that you have ordered it. '' Typree advised Ambrose.

'' goodness, I estimate we 've moved 39,760 with all that died at the showtime I feel we 've got almost of them. '' Ambrose relayed.

Typree sucked in his breathing place. `` There were that many who died ? ``

'' I 'm afraid so, from all I read of this time of a metropolis of 100,000 almost one-half died from a deep element. Then a few week later Tikal was attacked all its warriors defeated falling in the battle. The victors moved into an empty city, it almost made them fly the entirely urban center having a ghostly feel to it. '' Ambrose told of the history he 'd learned.

'' I may not bear said it father but I am gallant to be able-bodied to help bring about the beginning of our hoi polloi. '' Typree told his cousin.

'' It 's not over yet cousin, we still have a day and at to the lowest degree another 11,000 citizenry to go. We have returned a nifty many things to how I feel they should be. wellspring over seventy five percentage now though there are a few crucial people I feel that are still missing. One of them is in our family I am afraid. ``

Ambrose heard the gasp at the other end, `` You still do n't recognize who cousin ? ``

'' No, I have been over the household history many times, but I ca n't feel an answer. '' Saint Ambrose told his cousin.

The last-place day they worked as hard and fast as they could. Finally the last of those that were to go were on add-in. Everything felt like it should, or rather should have. Skylos was about to close the crosshatch when Ambrose stepped outside.

'' forefather ? Should I hold ? '' Skylos asked.

'' Something does n't sense right. I need to go in the city, have the former two launch I want you in the air, but low orbit. I 'll call you in a few spectons. '' Ambrose replied.

'' Alright sire, though how I am going to keep your partner and knights composure is beyond me. '' Skylos advised Ambrose.

Ambrose nodded as the hachure closed and the ship took to the sky. Running as fast as he could Ambrose began to search every building then groaned. It would take all day even with his hurrying. Changing to his full felid word form Ambrose reached out hoping that he was correct about his power. At first he growled when he felt nothing then took off at full speed to the other side of the city.

On the far incline of the city he found a little animation structure. What he was feeling was inside. Bursting through the entrance way he stopped short when he saw the small small girlfriend curled up asleep.

Walking to her Saint Ambrose gently shook the little girl whose eyes snapped undecided. `` OOOOO a big puss ! '' The little girl exclaimed throwing her sleeve around Ambrose 's neck.

'' Why are you here ? You should be with the others going to the new place. '' Saint Ambrose told her.

'' I was tired so I came home to take a nap. I 'm sorry Mr jackpot, can I still go ? I wo n't be bad. '' The little missy told Ambrose her large eyes filling with tears.

'' Oh my love you have to go. '' Ambrose told her as he scooped her up running out of the edifice toward the other slope of the metropolis. Already he could hear the snug strait of fight. Increasing his speed he called Skylos.

'' Mate ! Do n't you ever do this again ! '' He heard the provoked part of Twitty and Glenna.

Skylos set down as Saint Ambrose approached on a run. A welcoming committee was there lifting him and the petty girl on board.

Twitty and Glenna had their arms crossed staring at St. Ambrose as he got aboard. With the hatch closed they made for space.

'' What was so important that you had to go back ? '' They both growled at him.

'' I take it neither of you recognize the short girl I brought back with me ? '' Ambrose asked.

Both females softened as they looked at the minor then they both shook their head no.

'' She, '' St. Ambrose said taking a big breath, `` is the female half of the first base of my family. Timora 's son and here are the very initiative of my family. So you see I could n't just impart her. ``

All of his horse, paladins plus both his mates gasped. `` Sire you mean to tell me that footling girl is the first poove Kindra ? '' Roth said almost trance bound.

Ambrose could only smile at the looks of shock on all their faces
