Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ryu would look to Aideen and give a nod "of course, one moment." He would move close to his wife and hug her, being mindfull of their child. He send to Lyoko's mind I know you think we're not listening, but it's not true. I'm acting confident, as a means to instill courage to those under my command and care. Otherwise, the foe has won before the first battlecry is issued. I'll not enter the fight to come recklessly, i will gather what information I can and find what I need to win, before I strike, ok. He'd give her and their children each a kiss before stepping back and saying "now if you two will excuse me, I have an inspection to run." The kiss he gave to each was also laced with a spell that would teleport Lyoko and their daughters to a very secret location, should they be endanger. He would then leave for the inspection.

Aideen sat in silence her eyes still closed, deep in thought nothing could disturb her right now.
Deep within her mind she lingered going through ancient memories until she found the right one.
It was written text that flowed through her mind, something she had studied when she was young it explained what happened how vampires had survived while their king and queen slept, they had one original point of origin, if they were killed all others under it would die.
The idea came to her at once.

"Hybrid." She gasped and opened her eyes as she began to think furiously, she ran a hand through her hair and got up to pace the room, her form wavering slightly.
"Oh shoot." She concentrated again and she became completely human again.

Seeing Lyoko was starting to look at her funny she decided to explain herself.
"I've read a theory that if the original should die the created can still live if they drink another immortals blood. The only problem is Ryu isn't immortal and neither am I but..." She paused for a moment wording her sentance correctly before speaking.
"We live for a very long time, if it works you will be mortal and your life will end eventually but you would be free of your clan. I'll have to check with Ryu though." She sighed and waited for Lyokos reply to it.

"Well who every came up with that theory is a craked up lunatic. Any vampire created is just that a new vampire. THe thoeies about killing the vampire that turned you were wrong too. So many different vampires that weren't her doing are so different any way. We'd be fine if she died, it's just that no one knows where she is."

Lyoko and Aideen would hear, from the small window to the room they were in, commotion from outside. The inspection revealed that while the castle staff hadn't been infiltrated, the guards had been, four infact. The four agents circled Ryu, issuing ultimatums to him about either handing over their missing member, or dying where he stood. Ryu didn't look impressed and with but a single word, the storm clouds that had already gathered over head, launched bolts of lighting to all four of the vampire agents. However either were fried or killed but stunned.
The rest of the guards would move to bind them and ask for orders. Ryu would move to each vampire and whisper something, before telling the guard to take them while they are yet asleep to the border of his land and leave them against some trees. The guards would nod and gather the vampire agents up and head out on horse back. Ryu would then head back inside and head back to Lyoko and Aideen.

Ryu would return the hug and say "four, I checked their memories, they figured out you were here, however I altered their memories so that it would seem their search came up empty. Then instructed my men to take them to the border of my lands, and place them in a manner to where when they wake they would merely think they had dozed off after leaving back to their coven. At the least, that should by time, hopfully, it will throw them off your trail."

Ryu looked down to Kaori and smiled. He'd reach down and pick her up, craddling her in one arm. As he looks to kaori He says "even if my effort works as planned. I don't want to take any chances." He looks to Lyoko and and Aideen and says "please, I ask, no, beg you two, set aside any differences now so that if the worst should happen you have one another as an ally to turn to for help. If this coven should not give up, I want you Lyoko, to go to Aideen for help, at the least santuary, for any possible battle to come, ok?"
