Mesa and Apollo walked away as the people of the town gather around Leo laying on the ground. "What happened?" "Who was that guy?" "Leo! Get up!" Belle said as she was by his side trying to wake him up. Leo suddenly shot awake, jumped up and started to look around, Breathing heavy. "Leo. They got away." Leo was very visibly in distress. "Leo. We need to go home." Leo defeated, got up and walked away with Belle as all the citizens watch and talk among themselves.
Leo and belle walk into their home and Thomas immediately noticed that Leo was bloodied up. "What the- What happened?!" "Some guy showed up.... With Apollo. He said We wanted to steal his village's treasure or something..." "Wha- I- Huh? Did you two try to steal something?" "No! I have no idea what he's talking about!" "Did he say his name? Name of the village?" "Yeah, his name was Mesa. I think the village was Evercall or something." "Hm, sounds familiar. Look, I'm gonna patch Leo up, then you two get some rest. I'll let you know if i find anything out about this guy. Thomas patched up Leo and him and Belle went off to sleep. Thomas stayed up and did some research on Mesa's village. It was around 7 AM when Thomas woke up to banging sounds coming from the backyard. He walked out there to see Leo in a tank top wailing on a punching bag, hitting it extremely hard and fast.
"Leo?" He didn't stop. "Leo." He still didn't stop. "Leo!" He threw one final punch that ripped a hole in the bag. He turned to look at Thomas. "I have some news." Everyone gathered in Thomas's work shop where he had some web pages pulled up. "it took me a while, but I found Evercall village, not much about it but here's what I found. The village is ruled by the Adakai family. Father Malachi, Mother Kaya, and son Kai. Interestingly, they have another son, but he's not listed as part of the royal family and his name is Mesa." "That's him! What does it say about him?" "Nothing bad. Actually everything says he's a great guy. No one seems to know why he isn't part of the family." "He's a good guy? Then why did he attack Leo?" "You said he was protecting some treasure right? Well this treasure is something said to grant limitless power, and it's been part of the village for generations. If it got in the wrong hands it could be devastating." "Wrong... APOLLO! I get it! Apollo wants it! He lied to Mesa and said Leo wants it so he would take down Leo!" Belle explained. "Hm, well if Apollo gets it, it's bad news for that village and us. You two need to stop him." "But Mesa is gonna protect him..." "Not if he knew what he was really after. If he's really a good person, he'll do the right thing."
