The chief swallowed hard as all the cat idol huddled together. ‘ Oh gods,'the foreman intellection, ‘ please allow your brethren to help us in the coming tribulation and battle.'Still afraid to stand up the chief patiently awaited the decisiveness of Cit-Chac-Coh and his help. They must be as he was commanding all of them.

Ambrose turned back to the chief to ask a few more doubt. He sighed when he noticed that the man was still on his knee joint. `` point of view great chief of the people. '' Ambrose commanded. `` We have much to talk over about this enemy. ''

The honcho nodded as he got off his genu. Ambrose looked at his knights and checkmate as he shifted back to his human being form. All of them again wore a horrified feel but quickly nodded as they also shifted. The honcho 's sass dropped open as he could only stare at them. Then he nodded yes, they were indeed the gods of old.

A moment later the chief's guards came back in bowing low to the head. Ambrose 's oculus narrowed as he thought a 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 eyes went full as he bowed to Ambrose nodding his caput. `` I am honored that you recognize me my nobleman. '' The man quickly turned to the guards whispering to them. Each in turn, turned to gaze at Ambrose, his horse and his mates their mouth gaping open.

'' This is not to leave this way ! They are to aid us to a new land. Do not displease him ! '' The man said.

Both Twitty and Gleena were staring at Ambrose. They both had patiently waited for him to finish. `` You used two antediluvian row that we do n't recognize. '' Twitty stated.

'' Yes, please what do they mean. I know that you had a good deal training in the account of our people. I have also though obviously nowhere as lots as you. '' Glenna told Ambrose.

Ambrose turned to the both of them a minuscule surprised when no one knew of the two dustup that he 'd spoken. Pulling all of them aside Ambrose explained. `` I was thinking that he was the chief of this city. I had forgotten that the chiefs were never afford the respect that this man has. I had been calling him a nohchil or chief in the antediluvian spoken communication, it means chief. ''

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

'' Ahau, a Scripture just as old, '' here Ambrose looked over at the man talking to his sentry duty. `` It means tycoon, I had forgotten that all city-states had a Rex. '' Thinking a moment Ambrose nodded, `` I believe that the king here is Wak Chan K'awiil, he was king when most of the city disappeared. We also seem to be further back than we at first thought. I believe we are one hundred and thirty five more quants back than we at first thought. ''

'' What ! ! ? '' Twitty almost shouted. `` I was having a backbreaking enough time thinking we were four hundred forty six and a half quants back in time. 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 metropolis. If I 'm right this is the city of Tikal. They are about to be attacked by the contiguous city state of Calakmul or Caracol. Though it may take in been both of them. Tikal being as weak as it is, both might have attacked. ''

Roth, Gwayne, and Gregor were nodding accord to the assessment of the situation. `` sire we could actually turn the tide of the conflict. '' Roth started then stopped seeing the look of concentration on Ambrose 's case. `` I am grim if I over stepped sire. '' Roth quickly said.

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

Gregor and Gwayne 's mouthpiece were hanging open as they were about to dissent. Roth stepped up taking the both of them to the English. There he explained that Ambrose had no choice this had to happen for them to institute the root of their own reality. Both hung their heads realizing that Philip Milton Roth was right, even so neither of them were happy about it in the least.

Ambrose sighed they needed to begin taking everyone out of here as fast as possible. Pulling a pocket-sized comprehensive examination from his rap Ambrose quietly contacted Skylos. `` Skylos ! We need to find a way to transport more. ''

'' Yes Sire, I 've been trying to remove what I could to attain more way. At lay out I think we can take one hundred 70 five. I am taking a few of the paries down that I am hoping will afford enough room for twenty five more. Beyond that sire I do n't recall we can do any more. '' Skylos advised Ambrose.

'' Excellent commanding officer ! How long before we can begin to move them ? I 'm afraid we only have possibly two mintons, three if we 're prosperous. '' Ambrose told the commandant.

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

'' Alright we 'll all be back soon. '' Ambrose clicked off. Going to his knight and mates Ambrose told all of them then went to the world-beater. `` We have to go prepare that which we will learn the people to the early situation with. We will bring it near the boundary of the urban center. Please have as many quick to go as you can. ''

The king looked at Ambrose with wide eyes. `` I will do as you command O groovy Cit-Chac-Coh. All will be ready when you return. We are also preparing to save our enemies away while you take the relief away to rubber. '' Here the king and his guards bowed low to Ambrose and his knights. `` Your will be done. ''

Ambrose could only wind his eyes after the Billie Jean King said this. Especially after they all bowed to him. Shaking his head Saint Ambrose set out with the relaxation of his group following. Finally out of sight of the city Ambrose and the others shifted form, racing for the ship. Half a toton later they were set up.

'' Alright Skylos I want the ship on the edge of the city. I just hope the king has them set. '' Ambrose said.

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

'' Everything looking good, now leveling off. We are discharge of all obstructions, ready to continue commandant. '' Twitty replied.

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

'' We will persist with them until we have to delay our enemies advance. '' The Billie Jean Moffitt King told Ambrose.

'' We will film as many as we can. Die well in the battle, die with purity king Wak Chan K'awiil. Your name will always be remembered. '' Saint Ambrose told the king.

The king and his men all smiled bowing. `` You give us the greatest honour Lord Cit-Chac-Coh. We will send out as many of our enemy to underworld knuckle down pit as we can. There they can work all eternity to fulfill your glory ! '' All the men were placidity as St. Ambrose nodded shifting to his feline frame. Then there was a tremendous cheer as Ambrose began to move people into the ship.

Stopping everyone a second Ambrose searched the sea of people. `` I need the therapist Hippacamp and his daughter Timora with this showtime group ! '' The multitude of citizenry separated as both the people that Ambrose had called walked to the ship. `` I need the both of you to be there first watching over all as they arrive. ''

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

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

Timora nodded as she stepped in further with her founding father. Ambrose looked at the bit of people packed into the ship. Sighing he wished they had another ship to speed things along.

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

'' Yes father, '' came Skylos voice. `` I 'll return just as soon as possible. '' With that Ambrose stepped back as the ship accelerated then was gone.

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

The king was nodding his agreement then turned to Ambrose. `` Lord Cit-Chac-Coh the fact that as many are rubber now as there are, makes my pump sailplane that we have saved that many. Any more after this will only provide an even hard time to come for our people. Yes Lord our hoi polloi. '' The top executive said when he saw Ambrose 's eyes grow spacious.

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

Ambrose walked to his mates, Paladins and his three horse that were there. Philip Roth noticed him approaching kneeling before him. `` I see you moving with a mold gait forefather. I take it you have a missionary station for us ? ''

Saint Ambrose smiled slightly it was just like Roth to almost have intercourse what he had in mind. Shaking his headspring Ambrose pulled all of them close as he described what he wanted them all to do.

It was almost a one-half toton later that Saint Ambrose looked up at the glide path of the headliner cruiser. landing place, St. Ambrose 's comm. went off. `` Almost ready for another set sire. '' Then the room access opened with Skylos stepping out. Walking up to Ambrose Skylos knelt. I 'm sad father but the trip was difficult. I will take fairy Twitty to accompany me. It might also help if you also come along. The rider were very enervate when you did n't accompany us. ''

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

St. Ambrose looked at a smiling Skylos as he rolled his eyes. `` decent Twitty ! We are all three going this time. I am apparently needed to keep those on instrument panel calmer. '' Twitty nodded her head as she looked Ambrose up and down. Ok she thought she could agree with that assessment of St. Ambrose.

Shaking his fountainhead St. Ambrose watched the two of them enter then he started to dilute more citizenry. Not long after Ambrose stepped in securing the door. A minute later they were outer space bound accelerating toward Xendra. With a size Ambrose startled to slack, '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 stiff waves of free energy on the same way of life as the one we were on when we first arrived. '' Skylos returned a moment later.

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

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

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

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

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

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

A few instant later the door opened as this set of people moved out the doorway. Timora was there when the last of the passengers left. `` forefather we are setting up shelters for now. A few of the men have said that they will bulge out fully tomorrow. testament you and your assistant be capable to help us afterward ? ''

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

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

Timora was looking back and Forth between Ambrose and Twitty. Conflicting emotions crossing her aspect. obeisance low Timora told the both of them, `` I thank you Maker Cit-Chac-Coh. Just having you here now had calmed a great many. I just hope that this fair weather condition holds out 'til all are here. '' With that she walked away as St. Ambrose approached Twitty.

trembling her nous she quickly recognized the look on Ambrose 's face. Holding up her paw Ambrose stopped in social movement of her. `` get-go off I know that had you no doubt you would experience said as much. Bringing them here is n't enough, they need hope for the future and the bravery 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 Sojourner Truth. `` Alright, let 's get another load of them here. The more the in effect. four hundred is a paltry drop compared to how many are there still. ''

Both boarded the ship as Skylos took to place again. They were almost back to ground when Skylos started to frown then was adjusting their path. `` sire I am still picking up those unusual energy version. It appears that the finisher we get the stronger they get. ''

'' Running a detailed CAT scan now sire we should have an answer soon. '' Twitty relayed to Ambrose.

'' trade 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 push could spell tragedy for all of us. '' Ambrose replied.

'' We are doing all we can sire though as I feared it is growing a lot strong now. We may give to terminate short and wait it out. I know any delay is bad sire, it appears we have no choice. '' Skylos told Ambrose.

St. Ambrose heard the engines start to exponent down as he went to the command deck of cards. Looking out he could see that they were n't that far from earth. What in the Hades was this Energy Department that was starting to become visible. Looking heavily Ambrose suddenly felt a nudging at the rachis of his nous. This was starting to look and FEEL associate.

seance behind the Skylos and Twitty Ambrose was suddenly starting to feel dizzy. Outside the vigor was starting to mould what looked like a become burrow. Barely capable to wait up St. Ambrose 's eye went all-embracing as the feeling became very companion !

Gasping at the sudden pain in the ass Ambrose gritted his tooth as he told a startled Skylos and Twitty. `` Back away slowly, very slowly. It appears that we were n't the only 1 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 push ! '' Skylos was yelling as massive amounts of Energy Department were starting to be discharged. Skylos was still backing off gladiolus that Saint Ambrose had warned them. Any of the vigor arc could consume crippled the ship again.

All heart were drawn to the small shadow figure that was coming through the eye of the swirling energy. `` Wait ! '' Twitty said as she took a closer look. I think I see two shapes ! unknown I think I have seen those chassis before ! ''

Ambrose tried to kick upstairs his school principal even thought the unharmed room was spinning. The harder he tried it seemed the weaker he got. Damn this was almost as bad as before !

'' delay ! '' Ambrose managed to gasp out when he saw Skylos and Twitty getting quick to start the locomotive engine to go closer. Let the vortex close, remember when we came through. '' Falling on the floor Ambrose could sense the Energy and the strain he was feeling starting to decrease.

Skylos looked at Ambrose a moment 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 version nodding her head. `` Sire ? It appears that we have two ships coming through. I 'm afraid I do n't pick out their contour. ''

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

Twitty was looking at the approaching pattern Harder. Then she also started to smile and nod. Finally clear up of the swirling energy, the tunnel collapsed. Ambrose gave a sigh of relief as he felt the weakness rapidly leaving him.

Standing up Saint Ambrose leaned against the wall to clear his oral sex. `` Skylos we need to ... '' Ambrose started.

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

'' No father I ... sire ! Is n't that the king Saint Ambrose 's ship ? '' They heard an mad and confused Jankuis shout.

'' Cousin ?"They heard Typree say.

'' Energy has dissipated father. I am reading power loser in both ships. Moving to wiretap, we should be docked in fifteen tintons ! '' Skylos said finding his voice.
'' Good, the sooner the intimately. '' Ambrose said as he watched both ships as they went night .
