Chapter 22 - The Rally part 1

In a castle miles away from the island many teenagers could be seen lining in rows all of them chattering to one another. Few of the boys looking at some of the girls as if they saw the most beautiful thing in the whole world. Some of the girls were loving the attention they got while others didn't care about it or disliked it.

But one of the girls caught everyone ones attention. She had a blonde hair with a bit of blue on it and had a slim physique. The only thing that made her diffrent from the rest who were blond were her eyes which were blue. Her name was Elizabeth Barnes.

"Hey Eli are you excited that your getting all the boys attention" said a boy who had the same hair color but had yellow eyes said. "Not really I find this annoying, like who would want to have all this attention" said Elizabeth as she looked around her noticing all the boys avert their gazes from hers.

"Oh come one sis you should try and find a lover cause if you don't mother will continue bothering you about possible marriages" said the boy as he looked at Elizabeth with a smile. "Unlike you brother who always like the attention of others I don't. All I want is to bring the Barnes family into a higher position of power than the other families" she said as she pinched the boys arm and twisted it making the boy wince in pain.

"T-That didn't hurt and if it did my name is not Byro Barnes" said the boy as he would holding in the pain. "Oh it didn't then allow me to do it again" as Elizabeth was about to pinch Byro again she stopped when she heard a voice.

"Attention everyone attention. I need all of your attention" everyone stopped when the heard the thunderous voice. They all turned around and saw a young man on what appeared to be a granite stage with a few podiums.

"Now that I have all your attentions I shall begin the announcement. Several of you have been picked around the various schools of the countries and kingdoms. Those of you who are here I shall warn you that you can and possibly will die on this. So I'll give you an opportunity to leave in Shame back to your school's and kingdoms."

After a couple of seconds no one left "Ok good to know that this generation of people are not that much of cowards as the last one. Back on topic where you are going is an island called the Tigers Lair since the ruler of the island is a wild beast that is a A class. I shall mention now that the creatures on this island are C class all the way to B class; there are a few A class creatures on the island though they are within the one digits."

Hearing what was on the island several students began to regret not leaving but couldn't return back to their schools especially some schools that used alot of their money and influence just to get their top students to this base.

"With this population and ranking of beasts we wouldn't allow this but since the Barnes sent two of their kids here the base. We have allowed all of you to be able to tame ONE creature from the island with the help of our instant taming powder." The man then pulls out a bag and several people walk onto the stage holding a cage that was covered by cloth.

When the cage finnaly hit the ground the man pulled the cloth off reavealing a three headed tog that had flames coming out of its back.

"That's a cerberus, how does the Church have one these."

"Better question where did they get one these."

"I heard that they all went extinct."

Several of the students began to chatter between one another about the creature until one of the students said something. "They are releasing the cerberus."

Everyone looked at the stage once again and saw several people opening the cage. The cerberus began ramming itself against the gate. When the gate was finnaly open the cerberus rushed out and launched itself at the man.

Many of the students were screaming or gasping out of fear.

The man the grabbed something out of the bag that he pulled out and threw it at the creature. The thing the man threw out looked like a rock at first but when it came in contact with the cerberus it turned into a golden powder.

The cerberus stopped infrot of the man still growling and the man moved his hand to touch it. When it came his hand came into contact with the cerberus the cerberus stopped growling and instead started making a happy dog face on all three of its head.

This sight made everyone of the students surprised and question what they saw.

"Many of you are probably wondering what happend and I shall tell you. I threw one of our hand made taming stones that instantly tames any creatures that come in contact with the creature no matter their rank. Each of you will be given one stone and don't think of sneaking it out we have installed tracking runes on each of the stones; so we will know if any of you are sneaking any of our stones out."

When the man was half way through his speech several hooded figures came out and started handing everyone of the students a bag and when they looked inside they saw one of the stones they saw inside the bag.

"Also this does not work on humans so don't even think about it" said the man as he began to pull out his sword and slash at the air.

When everyone saw him slashing the air they at first were confused until they saw several rock fall onto the ground next to him.

"Everyone who has a stone please lift it in the air that way we know who has theirs" hearing those everyone lifted their stones into the air except for one. When the man saw this person he had a hateful look on his face "send him back to his school and let them know of what he did."

Several hooded figures than appeared out of nowhere and surrounded the student and grabbed him by the shoulder and just as they quickly arrived they disappeared.
