Niko now concerned after learning his where abouts, now his Ghost Tyko is not present or worst not around as he look all over the ship and river frantically.
Niko: "Tyko! where are you, ok stop playing you win!" meanwhile the people that save him look at him confused of what was he doing until one of them a big man held on to him on one spot.

???: "hey stop this nonsense, do you know who is presented here?" he look at them and let out a question.
Niko: "who are you guys?"
???: "i am Sun Ce, The Little Conqueror and leader of the Southlands, who are you?"
Niko: "im a Hunter, the names Nikola don't wear it out." he gave a thumbs up while they are still confused. never heard of a name like that before.
Sun Quan: "are you lost?"
Niko: "well let's see the list... no connection to the Last City, im in some weird place, my ghost is missing... and... have you seen my buds?"
Sun Quan: "huh?"
Niko: "my buddies a Titan and a Warlock."
Sun Quan: "what do they look like?"
Niko: "the Warlock is taller and the Titan who gives the silent treatment and hates every hour of his life." they looked at eachother with confusion before Zhou Yu spoke.
Zhou Yu: "maybe we can discuss more when we get on land, i still do not understand."

Later when they get to shore, Zhou Yu was still suspicious of this "Guardian" as he took Sun Ce aside for a moment to speak about this.
Zhou Yu: "does he seem a bit odd to you my Lord?"
Sun Ce: "well... he came out of nowhere."
Zhou Yu: "can he be Cao Cao's spy?"
Sun Ce: "the way he is acting, i don't think so."
???: "report." a messenger comes in to interrupt them.
???: "my lord, the Xiao sisters request your audiences."
Zhou Yu: "tell them we will be there soon."
???: "but my lord it's urgent, they found something "worth seeing" they said."
Niko: "what they find?" the two got a jumpscare and stared at Niko.

Zhou Yu: "by the heavens how did you-?"
Niko: "it's a habbit."
Sun Ce: "let's see what the girls have then."
???: "my lord they are at your camp inside your quarters."
Sun Ce: "we'll go together,
mr. Nikola is it, please join us."
Niko: "show me the way." he follows the messager as the two chatted in secret.
Zhou Yu: "my lord shall we investigate him, we can learn why he's here."
Sun Ce: "we will, but for now we wait... for now this stranger seems odd but normal."

Meanwhile Tyko was being held in a bird cage by two strangers who captured her.
Tyko: "hey get me out of this cage this is mistreatment."
???: "how are you able to talk without a mouth! what are you creature?"
Tyko: "i will not answering before my lawyer gets here."
???#2: "be nice, it doesn't look threatening at all but... cute."
Tyko: "wait you think im cute?"
???#2: "yes i never seen anything like you." she open the cage as Tyko flew out and hover by her.

Tyko: "let's start over, my name is Tyko what's yours."
???#2: "my name is Da Qiao, this is my little sister Xiao Qiao."
Tyko: "it's nice to meet you, where im i and have you seen my Guardian?"
Da Qiao: "Guardian? what is his name?"
???: "Tyko... Tyko!" they turn and saw the tall hooded stranger standing by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu inside the tent as the ghost rush and goes inside his hoodie.
Tyko: "it's good to see you Guardian, miss me?"
Niko: "nope."
Xiao Qiao: "hey!"

Niko notice the girl stood up and try to reach into his hoodie as he grab her wrist.
Niko: "what do you think your doing kid?"
Xiao Qiao: "i am not a kid, i found that thing and it's mine."
Tyko: "what? im his ghost, you don't own me."
Niko: "what she said." she makes another attempt while the Hunter had enough and picked her up from her back as she kicks and wiggles to no avail.

Xiao Qiao: "put me down and give that to me!"
Niko: "how bout no?"
Zhou Yu: "can you put my wife down?"
Niko: "this brat is your wife?"
Xiao Qiao: "i am not a brat!?"
Niko: "how old are you?"
Xiao Qiao: "old enough to beat you up."
Niko: "that will be a bad idea."
Zhou Yu: "please set her down."
Niko: "I will do if she stop going after my ghost?"
Zhou Yu: "Xiao Qiao this is his we don't know what it is, it's best if you stop."
Xiao Qiao: "but... ok." when she stop making any attempts Niko set her back on her feet.

Niko: "now where we're we... have you seen Cotae and Raiden?"
Tyko: "first your light."
Niko: "huh?" they watch as the ghost expands her shell and beamed her Guardian as he takes a couple of breathers.
Niko: "whoa... whoa, no wonder i feel odd... something is coming!" he notices soldiers are shooting arrows at hay targets so he leaves the tent while the other who we're confused follow him as he pass by soldiers getting an audience before reaching to the front.

Sun Ce: "hey what are you doing." the Hunter activates his Golden Gun and hip fire at the targets burning/destroying them immediately.
Niko: "what a rush, that's what im talking about!" once he deactivate his super he holster his gun and turn to see their mouths gap open.

Niko: "uh you guys good?"
Sun Ce: "who are you really?"
Niko: "im Nikola, Everyone's Favorite Hunter, The Dredgen..."
