1O Mistress mine, where are you roaming?

O, stay and here, your true love's coming.

That can sing both high and low:

Trip no further, pretty sweeting

Journey's end in lovers meeting.

Every wise man's song doth know.

William Shakespeare

Cain paced back and forth in front of the window. The rug that lay on the ground now looked worn and tired from Cain's persistent steps throughout the long months DG had been gone. Glitch sat on a stool a few paces down from the man, his hands neatly folded in his lap.

"They should be here by now," Cain muttered to no one in particular. His arms firmly crossed over his large frame, securely stating his frustration. "What time is it?" He asked his audience. Raw shrugged and Glitch looked around for a clock. When no clock could be found, Glitch simply made up a few numbers.

"Half past 5?" He attempted. He held his breath, hoping Cain wouldn't catch on to the lie. Cain simply ignored Glitch, as if the question had been a rhetorical one, as opposed to an actual one. Glitch shrugged and looked over at Raw. Raw looked over at his friend, and then motioned towards Cain.

"Cain worried about DG. DG been gone a long time." Raw said solemnly. Both he and Glitch had noticed Cain's moody behavior ever since DG and Azkadillia left months ago. Cain practically begged the king to allow him the chance to guide the girls on their adventure. However, Ahamo had other plans for his head of security. With an up coming wedding and coronation fastly approaching, Cain was needed in the palace to help with security measures. The land was still unsteady and either event was sure to create problems all around. Being the 'work first, family second' man, Cain didn't object to his new job and sadly watched as DG literally rode off into the sunset. Now, standing in front of the window, Cain promised himself that would be the last time work ever got in the way of his personal life.

"Yes DG has been gone a very long time Raw, but is that any reason to snap at innocent people?" Glitch's voice interrupted Cain's thoughts. Glitch looked up at Cain as he turned around to face to two friends. Glitch swallowed and twiddled his thumbs. "Not that we don't like you all broody and moody," Glitch began. He chose his words very carefully, picking what little of his brain he had left. "In fact it's been quite normal?"

Cain rolled his eyes and turned back to the window, his jaw tensed up as he clinched it together. Glitch knew this was when he was supposed to just shut up and silently support Cain . . . from afar. Out of the corner of his eye Glitch could see Raw slowly stand and walk over towards the tall man.

"What—stop – don't," Glitch whispered, grasping for his friend. Raw slipped out of his grasp and Glitch held his breath as Raw walked forward.

"Cain no need to worry. DG in safe hands." He patted the man on his shoulder. Cain looked over at him, relieved for a change. He had sent the girls out with his best men. If anything, the men would be safe with Azkadillia and DG watching over them. Cain laughed to himself. Raw could see the change in the man's attitude.

"Thank you Raw," Cain said, suddenly very calm. Raw nodded and backed away towards the stool he was sitting on. Glitch just looked at his friend, his jaw dropped.

"How do you do that?" Glitch whispered. Raw shrugged. Cain looked up and out onto the drive as he heard cars on the gravel driveway. Glitch heard the same as well and shot up out of his seat.

"DG'S BACK!" He yelled. He ran towards the door and into the hallway. Glitch bounded down the stairs, taking two stairs at a time. He couldn't even try to hold back his excitement as his friend arrived back at the castle. He'd missed both girls incredibly. Cain was quickly at his feet, he himself unable to hold back his excitement. The two men stood in the foyer, waiting for the princesses to come in the house.

"It will be good to have the girls back, right Cain?" Glitch asked. Cain smiled and clamped a hand on Glitch's shoulder.

"You have no idea," Cain muttered. Glitch smiled happily, Cain was back!

"I guess we should brace for another adventure." Glitch laughed. Cain nodded as the solid wooden doors opened.

"I'm already with you on that."
