“You’re such a geek.” Penny took a deep breath.
“You know what I’d like? An enemy named Bob.
Why do villains always have such weird names?”
Huichang raised his hand to interject. “Perhaps on his
planet, we are the ones with strange names.”
Penny nodded. “Good point.”
“There’s been no sign of him,” Wisdom said. “I’ve
been monitoring the two dimensional gates we found,
the one in Windsor, Canada, and the other in
Thessaloniki, Greece. Nothing. But there may be
other gates. We know the Orpheans can travel
through mirrors into our world. For all we know,
they’re moving Defksquar between our world and his.
Defksquar also hasn’t approached my student, Josh,
but we have to assume he’s still important to their
plans.”
Penny motioned once more for her aide. “There’s one
last thing. Mr. Icke has resurfaced. He claims to have
proof of the reptilian agenda. Sources tell us he has a
body.”
“Damn it!” Wisdom pounded the table. “I thought I
had him killed.”

They’re right here in New York, sequestered inside a
mansion. It’s the first break we’ve had in months.”
“That is good news,” Penny said. “But don’t you find
that strange. All known members have been on the
run since the incident in Thessaloniki. Why are they
here?”
Wisdom shook his head. “I don’t know. Not yet. I
should have news tomorrow.” He clasped his hands
together and placed them before him on the table.
“You all know how much I detest politics. I’ve never
wanted a seat at the table. Now, I have no choice. I
know most of you don’t trust me. You’re probably
right not to, but let me be very clear. The world is at a
tipping point. One wrong move and it’s a disaster we
won’t come back from. So I will learn what the
Council of Peacocks is planning. Fa ilure, as they say,
is not an option.”

Penny smiled. “My father was right about you. Is that
your solution to everything? You know, Wisdom,
some things cannot be solved with murder.”
Wisdom wrinkled his nose. “Nonsense.”
Penny threw up her hands again. “You’re impossible.
Perhaps it’s time we leave Mr. Icke alone. He was
right, after all, about the reptilians. At least partially.”
Wisdom leaned forward. “Exactly. Why do you think
I want him dead? You think people will panic over
Lemurians? Just imagine if they have proof of
shapeshifting reptilians. On another note, I may have
some good news.”
“Formidable.” This was the representative from
France, Jean-Yves Ledrec. “We could use some. Have
you found this man you search for, Richard
Wilkinson?”
Wisdom rubbed his forehead. “Not yet. But we have
found several other senior members of the Council.
