This time Ike went through the gates of the castle without any problems. Some of the guards even said "Hey" to him as he walked in, which he found strange. He entered the castle and asked the first person he saw if he could meet Saundry. The man went away in a hurry to get the queen.

By the time the guard reached the grand staircase saundry was already flying doen the stairs. "Sereph! Ike!" she hugged them both. "you both are alright!" Sereph seemed awkward in saundry's motherly hug. Saundry Sudennly looked her straight in the face and her own face became grave. She knew. "What happened?" She turned to ike. "Wait, no not here, come with me." she hurried them into her rooms. "What happened. "she asked ike looking gravely at sereph.

"She gave up her heart for my life." Ike bowed his head, feeling guilty. The look in his eyes was sorrowful. All of a sudden Ike dropped to his knees bowing his head to Saundry. "Saundry, can you teach me magic? Anything at all?" It was wierd Ike had never done something like bowing to someone, he really was desperate. "I need to get stronger, atleast have something, to beat Max." He smashed his fist into the ground. "He took me out before I could even react. I need to get stronger." The desperation was even heard in his voice. "I can't protect Sereph like I am now."

"get up." she told him. She placed a hand on his forhead. "im going to cast a scan on you to see if your capable." She said a few words in an ancient language and then she pulled her hand away like it was on fire. "Good heavens!" She gasp and held her hand close. "I am sorry but you will need someone stronger than me."

The confusion was written all over Ike's face. "Eh ...... what's wrong?" He himself thought Saundry maybe would be able to teach him just a basic spell or two. He didn't have any talent for magic in him as far as he knew. "Do I have a fever or something?" Ike asked obviously not able to grasp the situation just yet.

"We'll find out right now. You wanted the strongest, and here she is." Sit down boy-O this is gonna sting a little." The evil grin crept across tris's face. "If you want your answer... "She held up restraints. "Bonding time." Serephs heart twitched. "I do not think this is wise." She murmered but made no move to stop it. "We don't have a choice." Saundry said.

"Eh ..... ?" Ike sat down still looking confused. "What is going on?" He asked in pure confusion. His eyes darted between everyone in the room. "Where did Tris come from anyway?" This question lead to even more confusion on his part. He sighed and decided that they obviously know what was going on, he'd just tag along.

"I have you bugged kiddo." She said menacingly. "No actually i heard her yelp." I'm stronger than she is. We communicate by brain so i heard her call for me." She strapped him to the chair. "i wasnt kidding. this will sting." She moved toward him and then stopped. "huh?" She noticed his torn shirt. She moved it and eyed the mark. She backed away and then pointed at sereph. "Strap her down too." Saundry moved toward sereph. "What?" She seemed bewildered for a moment while saundry took her hands and tied them up behind her. "Sneaky bastard..." She whispered to ike. "you need to keep this a secret." she pointed to the mark. "cover it. bcause now your twice as vulnerable." tris's hand began to glow. and when she touched his head it felt like a branding iron and he wanted to scream he could feel it, she was in pain too, he did hear her scream.

Ike closed his eyes, trying to resist the pain. He heard Sereph scream and he wanted it to stop. Why did she have to be in pain too?! Ike withstood the pain without making a sound. It didn't hurt as bad as the wound he had in his chest, but it was painful. Extremely painful and he felt bad for Sereph but he knew he had to do it. "S-sorry, Sereph." He whispered.

"It only hurts her because you possess that tiny piece of her insides that she needs to function like a normal little girl." Tris Turned to saundry. "Gepetto here has some kind of conversion magic. he doesn't realize it but he's using it right now to accidently maintain Pinocchio here." Tris theorized. It's dusty though, nothing i've seen in this time. Something that must be activated when his body absorbs power. Conversion. So he can at least attempt to turn it into something he can wield. however im more concerned about pinocchio." she pointed to sereph.

Ike opened his right eye and looked at Tris. "What's wrong with Sereph?" He sounded serious and he was obviously worried. "And what is this conversion magic? What does it do?" He asked them still confused about what just happened.

"let me break it down for you." she paced. "Theres you and her. You took in a big ticker of a piece of what makes her walk and talk. Your odd little doo-dad of a power here is converting her normal psychic energy into something you can maintain in your body. It's creating strings to her. Still bonded by life. She is conscious because you will it. Since she doesnt have both a thinker and a ticker she can only function based on one she possesses. You need a heart to live. She doesnt have one in her chest right now. It's in yours. So on a base line if you die so does she. She's alive now because you know shes there, if you had gone on unaware of her heart you would have never maintained her consciousness she would have died before you got here. You are a lucky kid." She kept pacing. "This power activates when you take power into your body. Normally you cant use magic right well this is your magic. To take magic in to absorb it and your structure converts it into something your body can wither burn or wield. Why do you think you have such amazing stamina and ability to heal. Your body converted the magic left over to boost your recovery. When you took in her ticker her power instantly healed whatever fatality you had inflicted on you. But because its not yours theres also a slip. Its a limited supply and your feeding off it. slowly for now but you are. if you use it all... well, one of two things will happen..." she said gravely.

"I'm guessing, she will die if I use too much." He said fully concentrated on what Tris was saying. 'Damn it' he thought. As if finding the book would not be hard enough, he now had a time limit added too. He sighed, not knowing what to do.

"Well, that or you will strip her of her psychic powers completely." She finished. "Heres the good news. Its embedded in you for now so any other power to enter your body im guessing here your body will consume before re connecting to her power. Maintaining her though that only takes little bits of power at a time. Just a smidge more than it would if she had it in her own chest." She seemed to be finished but holding something back. She glanced at saundry who glanced back worried. Tris grinned then the fakest grin. Her pokerface was worse than sereph's. "Whos hungry? Sereph, saundry can you go get a snack?" She asked. "Yea," Saundry took sereph and seemed to flee the room with her. Tris made no move to unbind ike from the chair.

Ike laughed at Tris. "Your poker face is the worst i've ever seen." He laughed for a bit then frowned again. "You're holding something back, what is it? There is something you're not telling me." He worried waiting on Tris' answer. Why did she need Sereph and Saundry to leave the room. There should be no reason for them to leave even if it was bad. "Also you don't seem to be in a hurry to unbind me, what's that about?"
