"It seems both your mother and father trained you well." Camilla chuckled as Al arrived at the mansion's parlor.

"He looks the part and behaves the part." Guan Ming said with a nod as he agreed with his wife. "I'm sure he is also smart enough to take over after his father. Although he still has a long way to go."

"Ming!" Camilla scolded her husband, making Al laugh and shake his head.

Not far behind him were Angelo and Zimo holding a little boy's hand as the child tried to run up to his now favorite Uncle Al.

"What did you give this kid?" Angelo asked as he held Nikolai's hand tightly making sure that the boy didn't suddenly run out of the house.

"Nothing, we just played this morning." Al said with a shrug as Angelo and Zimo stopped next to him.

"Awww, who is this cute little child?" Camilla asked as she stretched out her arms signaling to Nikolai that he could approach her.

Nikolai gave a tentative glance to the adults next to him as they let go oh his hand.

"She's my aunt, go on, say hi." Zimo said as he encouraged Nikolai to go to Camilla.

"She's a nice lady, don't be scared." Angelo added in the hopes of convincing the boy.

After a few awkward seconds, Nikloai shyly walked up to Camilla.

As he stood in front of the regal lady, she pulled him into a hug and held him tight.

"We can't keep him." Guan Ming groaned, making Al, Angelo, and Yu Zimo laugh. They all knew that Camilla wanted more children around the house, and having Nikolai around, partially fulfilled her wish.

"You didn't kidnap him, did you?" Guan Ming asked knowing full well who the young boy was.

"No, his father handed him willingly, I even have this." Yu Zimo boasted as he handed Guan Ming some documents that even Al and Angelo were seeing for the first time.

Guan Ming took it and his eyes went wide with shock as he read through them.

"Sir, your guests are here." A butler said as he walked into the living room.

Guan Ming nodded before turning to Al.

"There are spaces below for you to conduct your business." Guan Ming informed him as the butler stoof and waited for instructions. "Zimo, what room would best suit Al's purposes?"

Zimo grinned and chuckled.

"The rainbow room." He said, making it sound like it was some children's play room.

Al knew better.

He was certain that it was called that out of more sinister reasons.

"We'll meet with him there then." Al nodded as Guan Ming gave the butler instructions to take the guest to the Rainbow room.

As Al made a move to leave, Guan Ming stopped him momentarily.

"Don't waste this opportunity." Guan Ming said. "Don't let your anger get the better of you. I've made that mistake, trust me you don't want to fall into that trap."

Al nodded, acknowledging what his uncle had just said.

He had heard the story, they all did.

Guan Ming dismissed them, allowing the three men to make their way down to the labyrinth of halls that lay beneath the mansion.

"Through here." Yu Zimo said as he pointed towards an empty hallway.

It was clear that those that were normally there had vacated it for their purposes.

They stood before two elegant doors, but as Al was about to open it he turned to Yu Zimo.

"Are you ready? Are you sure about this?" Al asked. "We cannot return Nikolai to his father after this."

"I'm Nikolai's father." Yu Zimo bravely declared. To which Al simply responded with a nod, pushing the doors open and walking in.
