The bodyguards bow at Gerald as they couldn't do anything to her except he orders them to.

"Wait...a minute, who are you and who's Pedro because I am Gerald" he informed intending to give the pestering baby back to her but she stepped away from him.

"Drop your jokes Pedro! You have a case with my father!" She concludes and walked away without further introduction.

Gerald mutters some depressing words, turned his gaze at the maids and then his eyes met the weeping child whose pitch was high and breaking.

The maids hadn't dropped the tray in their hands yet as they were waiting for his order. Everyone here seemed to respect him and he guessed he might be in a safer place than the former.

"Could someone tell me what's happening?" Gerald pleads as he stretched the baby to one of the maids to hold. He doubts if these terrible looking bodyguards could cater for the child. Rather, they would kill the baby.

The moon shone through a lattice of leaves, patchy sky and stars seen in glimpses through tree breaks, tall shadowed pines stretching up like arrows into the sky, streaks of cloud against the earth, Wind slipping through leaves, cracking undergrowth with each step, creaking tree trunks, the flutter of wings unseen, snapping twigs, grass. Heavy pants could be heard through this dangy wood as a man could be seen covered in blood while holding a little child in his arms.
