In one of the biggest hospital in Zion. Nathan was seen talking to one of the doctors who was in charge of his mother. He was lucky enough to flag down a cab after many trials. He had carried his mother down the roads of Froberg.

None of the taxi drivers agreed to stop and help him but he still never gave up he carried his mother on his back and continued to walk down the street. Still trying his luck with the cab as he kept trying to stop them. Finally one agreed to stop and carry him. Driving him straight to the city hospital collected from him the last money he had from the twenty dollars and took off.

"I'm sorry nathan but there is nothing I can do here. I'm just a doctor doing my job. Your mother had a cancer of the heart and you didn't bother bringing her here soon enough. Now we can only offer her an oxygen machine to breathe on." The doctor said.

"Then give her the oxygen. She is all I have I can't lose her now please." Nathan pleaded with the doctor.

"It's not free of charge, you will have to afford the the treatment and also pay for the oxygen machine which is two hundred dollars per an hour. You can't afford it so I would rather say, she dieing already just let her be and spend more time with her while you still have chance to." The doctor said without remorse and left nathan to cry his heart out to himself.

After weeping for some time nathan stood up and went to meet his mother. Mrs rose was laying lifeless on a hospital bed, they had managed to worn a hospital robe. The only thing they gave her, to sustain her for the moment was a drip.

"Hey mum." Nathan grab the stool near by and sat beside her, took her right palm and place his cheek on it.

"Hey baby." Mrs rose tilt her head to face her son. "Come on now no need to cry. I told you everything is gonna be okay."

"Mum you are giving up on me already, it just too unfair. It has always be you and I against the world and now you just want to leave me alone against the world." Nathan cleaned his tears and continued.

"Mum please they must be someone you know here in Zion or even in the community back home. There must be someone somewhere that can help us mum please. I know you know some people in high places. People that can help. Mum please help me out here."

"Nathan some people can never change no matter how you beg them." Mrs rose managed to reply him.

"I know mother but we still have to try, even if it means cleaning their houses or anything. I would do it to save you mum. Just tell me who they are."

"You sure you want to do these."

"Yes mum."

"Find the capital, if they can let you in find the general managers. They were your father's friends. But I still don't think they would help." She explained to him.

"I'm not giving up without trying mom. Just hang in there for me. I love you." He smiled with a little wink of hope in him. He kiss his mother forehead before heading towards the door.

"Nathan remember your blood, remember who you are, the blood of the the first men runs in your veins. You are a miracle Nathan and your family loved you more than anything especially your father." Mrs rose, his mother said with a weak voice and a smile.

"I don't even know what any of those means. But I'm okay with you, that all that matters." He smiled back at her.

"Don't forget the box."

"Yes mum." He ran out before she could stop him again.

Immediately he left a nurse walks in to check up on Mrs rose. "Good day Mrs rose." she greeted.

"Good day to you too."

The nurse went through her book chat and her mood changed. She turned to look at Mrs rose who has been staring at her the moment she steps in. Her chat was reading negative which meant she wouldn't last any longer than she is now.

"Ma'am." she sat down besides her and placed her hands on Mrs rose palm.

"I know, I just hope my son could come back on time so I could see him smile before you know." Rose said and smiled to the nurse who reciprocated.

.....

Some where in the city of Zion nathan was still walking around in search of the capital. The mother didn't give him a particular specification. So he was stranded on the street moving from one junction to the other. He continued to walk in circle until he bumped into someone around his age.

"Oops I am so sorry it was totally my fault I wasn't looking at my direction. Please I'm sorry." Nathan apologize trying to help the young boy pick up his text books that had fell on the ground when he bumped into him.

"Hey man, it's okay it's not your fault I wasn't looking straight either myself. So we both were not looking." The boy replied "oh shit where are you going dress like that?"

"Actually I'm lost, I have been looking for the capital for ten minutes now without any clue of where it is or even how to identify it and none of the people are willing to help." Nathan muttered.

"Of course nobody will agree to help, you look like shit man and even if you get to the capital, ain't no way they will let you in looking like that bro." The kid replied

"I don't have a choice these is all I have got on me." Nathan shrugs

"Okay! Let me see what I can do for you, hey come with me these way. I'm a bit early to school so I don't mind sparing you a minute. By the way I'm Kelvin Desmond by name and I'm studying at Zion medical lab right inside the capital. You see we both were heading the same place." Kelvin said with a grin

"I'm actually in a hurry, i don't plan on wasting time kelvin, I'm Nathan L'Amour by the way." Nathan introduce himself feeling happy that someone was actually talking to him for the first time.

"Wait did you just said L'Amour, like the L'Amour of all time. No way bro!" kelvin laugh and change his facial expressions to a serious one. "Seriously bro what's your full name?"

"Nathan L'Amour and what funny about it? what do you even mean by L'Amour of all time?" Nathan was now a bit uncomfortable with kelvin.

"Hey man relax, don't tell me you haven't heard the story of the L'Amour's the greatest ever known." Kelvin said immediately he noticed nathan discomfort. They were heading back to his home not far from were he bump into nathan.

"What about the L'Amours? What their story?" Nathan was now too curious to know more.

"Are you from the community outside the city?"

"Yes." Nathan replied.

"No wonder you were clueless to everything here in the city. Here help me with my books." Kelvin said dividing the books in two making nathan carry half of it.

"What does the name L'Amour has to do with me?"

"With you absolutely nothing." Kelvin laughs out again.

"Sorry it just too hilarious you being the last L'Amour ain't no way dude. Because if you were the last L'Amour you would have been riding in the latest car a mansion of your own. That's a long detail, bro the short info is; the L'Amours were not just great, they were powerful and the richest here in Zion. They even built the capital it's self, so trust me there is no way you are the last one." Kelvin scoffs.

"Whatever where are we going?" Nathan asked.

"My house; to get you some good clothes, if you want the security to let you in. The capital is not a place you can just walk in and walk out, without the security procedure. It wasn't like these before though, my father told me the city was a great one in the reign of great L'Amour may his soul rest in peace." Kelvin stop to observe a peaceful moment of sorrow for the great.

"Yeah may his soul rest in peace." Nathan replied mindlessly as he didn't know who their mourning was for.

"Can we go now? I'm kinda in a hurry." He interrupted the mourning Kelvin.

"Dude relax. okay? come stroll with me. My home is just down the road and don't be afraid I'm not a monster or a kidnapper. I'm just a guy trying to offer you clothing so chill."

Together they stroll down the lane to kelvin home. He kept talking over and over without talking a break. Which made nathan more comfortable with him. There in the community no body wanted to have anything to do with them.

So he hardly had anyone to talk to. Finally they arrived at Kelvin's home, a one storey building and nobody was at home at the moment. They had all taken off early hours of the morning. Opening the door with his own spare key, kelvin led nathan straight to his room.

Nathan couldn't stop admiring the house for a second he never knew what it felt like to live in a place like that.

"Here wear that one, I'm pretty sure it your size."

Nathan took the clothes and went to the changing room using kelvin direction. While he was changing nathan ask him.

"Hey man what were you doing in Zion all alone anyway?"

"I wasn't alone. I brought my mum to one of the hospital here in Zion. I need them to commence her treatment that why I was looking for the capital. She told me someone there might help." Nathan replied while coming out.

"She told you someone there might help, well she better be telling the truth because those men are too heartless to help anyone."

"Actually she didn't say exactly that they would help I insisted on trying my luck, she dieing on me and I can't let her die." Nathan said remember the look on his mother face when he left her.

"What! And you are still here why didn't you tell me all these while? We are wasting time here while your mum is dieing." Kelvin pulled nathan out with him picking his books along side, while running he said to nathan.

"I don't know what made you think they would help but it fine by me to try your luck first. Your mum needs it now more than ever."

"Thanks kelvin, for your hospitality. I have never had anyone to talk to like these for years back at the community people avoided me and my mum for a reason I don't even know."

"Chill bro you have me now, we are friends okay just call me anytime." They ran all the way to the capital on arrival they joined the queue till it got to their turn.

"There, take the elevator upstairs to the ninth floor tell them you are here for the generals. You can give them any of the name your mother gave you. I need to hurry back to class so best luck." Kelvin waved him bye and left.

Following kelvin's instruction he got to the ninth floor, coming face to face with four huge security guards on masks. Before he could say a word they interrupted him.

"Are you lost kid take the elevator back down to the first floor and follow the map it would led you straight to class." One of them tried to push him back into the elevator without listening to him. So he had no choice but to yell out.

"I'm Nathan L'Amour my mum Rose L'Amour, she sent me here to meet the generals for help, they know her please talk to them first, my mum is dieing I need their help please. Nathan shouted breathlessly.

The guard pause for a moment look at Nathan for some minute and went back. They whispered some words. One of them turned back to nathan and said. "Are you sure about what you are saying kid?"

"Yes please I just need to talk to them please."

"Fine wait here." One of the guards left. He interrupted the meeting the generals where having and said. "I'm sorry sir they is a kid outside seeking your audience. His name is Nathan L'Amour, I believe he said his mother sent him to you her name Rose L'Amour."

The generals were angry he interrupted their meeting but when they heard L'Amour they gasped in awe.

"Did you say L'Amour?" One of them asked
