Speechless, Alba and Tariq left the underground cell and went back up to the study. Alba was looking at Tariq in fear. No words were said between the two but they both understood how dire the situation was:
"I think; I should return to earth with you."
Tariq folded his arms and replied Alba saying:
"No. I think you should stay here. I know that man is scheming something. Perhaps he is just waiting for the right time to strike. Trust me. I will handle that Hezron guy and keep in touch with you."
Before Alba could say a word. A water portal appeared after Tariq waved his hands in the air. He went into the portal and vanished and all Alba could say at that point was:
"Take care."
