currently on planet syair the remaining Mongrels were walking across foreign land as they were now all back in their human forms. many of the injured were being carried while others were able to walk.
"where are we." asked Levy. the princess of the Mongrels. her hair was pink and shaved low on the sides and the back with the top being an edgy pixie style. She was 5 foot 6 and 18 years old with pink colored eyes and had an oat milk brown cream color skin tone. She had the attitude of a tomboy but the body of a thick curvey goddess...her breasts were plump and perfect, thighs nicely thick but well toned you could tell she worked out a lot. Her arms were lean and showed a small amount of muscle with a lean flat stomach and a somewhat visible six pack abs. Her calf muscles were well built, overall she had the body of a female athlete.
"A planet called Syair miss lady, I'm sure your father believed this planet was the safest out of many others." says a pale white haired middle age slime face handsome man with a black and white beard. he was currently wearing a white robe like shirt with gold armor shoulder straps and pants and boots to match. this man was spade.
"I know you all are tired, but let's move everyone, there's a forest up ahead, we will rest there for tonight."
they were currently miles away from where the portal opened up, therefore they had no idea the portal opened once more.
"this way." a big red orc says while looking at the hundreds of tracks on the ground.
After reaching a grey and black forest spade and a few others took watch as people were pulling out tents made of beast skins and other things out of their personal storage devices. all the people who had something to offer such as food and water placed it inside a big tent where Mastiff and bison were.
once everyone brought whatever little food they could, a small portion was shared amongst everyone.
Many mongrels had conversations amongst each other while many said nothing and stayed to themselves. There weren't enough tents for everyone so many slept on the ground or up against trees.
"mother why did my big brother have to fight and die" a small boy with blue hair and silver eyes asked a brown haired woman.
"your brother was brave and courageous,it was his duty to protect our race, we are warriors and must lay down our lives at any given moment if it must be done." the woman says while the head of the little boy rested against her shoulder as they were sitting by a tree.
the young boy nodded while closing his eyes.
After around an hour many Mongrels found themselves asleep,while some simply couldn't go including Levy. it was just too many things on her mind.
"what are our moves now captain." A dark skin muscular man with shaved low but thick sideburns. his deep yellow eyes were interesting,as his pupils switched from brown to red. he was wearing a thick brown coat with white fur wrapped around the top covering his neck which was a pelt from a wolf.
"Bison, I was just about to send for you, I understand many of your pack survived the sacrificial battle and were able to get back to us,I need your unit to go on ahead and search the area in a twenty mile radius."
"Once everyone is rested we must have a place to go, hopefully there's a city near that will not be hostile towards strangers."
"Also do not call upon your beast forms unless it is necessary, we must tread carefully for now." Spade says.
Bison nodded and proceeded to turn around.
" oh Bison, calm yourself I understand we are all on edge, but if you run into someone you need to look like you're not a threat." spade added.
Bison inhaled deeply a few times as his pupils shifted to yellow and remained. All Mongrels eyes had this feature when agitated, but Bison along with his pack who were a warrior unit of humanoid wolves were known to be the most aggressive among them all, because of their type and natural aggressive nature they were easily agitated resulting in their eyes shifting between it's normal colors and beast form color.
"yes captain, I will keep everything under control." he said as he turned back and continued.
Bison informed his unit and all seven of them left in search of civilization.
after an hour and a half they finally came up on a city with huge walls that were over two hundred meters high.
there were no guards stationed outside the wall doors or on top and so this seemed very odd to them.
" you think it's an abandoned city or something behind the wall." a young female voice says to bison.
"not sure,you all stay along the treeline amongst the shadows,Blitz you are coming with me." he instructed.
Bison and a young teen male by the name of Blitz walked carefully across an open field leading to a stone road in which they followed.
upon reaching the gate they could clearly see homes and buildings lit up,but not a soul in sight.
"this could be a trap Dad, I mean it doesn't look right at all." blitz says to Bison.
"no I don't sense anyone at all at least not upon the front walls or in the first few buildings."
"come let's scale the wall."
both of the their arms became covered with fur and claws as they dug into wall, after a few mins they were at the top and could see stairs from multiple directions which led down to the city.
"there's people over there, what exactly is going on here, do they think having walls this high will stop all enemies and protect them enough for them not to have a single person on guard." blitz says to Bison.
"no something else is going on here, look closely son."
from the top of the walls they could see the entire city. at a great distance there were people lining up at a huge house near the east side.
"Blitz, go back with the pack and inform them of this place. after that head back to camp, I'm going get a closer look."
"yes father."
Bison ran on the wall that wrapped around the entire city heading to the side in which he saw many people. on his way he sensed people in their homes and buildings which made him question a few things.
after getting close and upon further inspection he saw a person in all black ahead of the crowd. not a single person made a sound as the all entered the mansion like building.
"what exactly is going on in this place." he questioned himself.
he sat there and watched as over two hundred people walked in the building.
"they are concealing their presence,if I didn't see them with my own eyes I wouldn't have known they were there." Bison thinks.
"for what reason do they have to conceal and hide, are they intruders, to the people who really lives here or is it something else."
flashes of white light could be seen coming from within the mansion as crowds of people walked in.
Just then six males were seen walking up the road towards the Mansion.
Bisons ears transformed becoming beast and wolf like.
"I told you I heard and seen people gathering at Mr. Clayton's home." one of the male figures says to the other five men.
"I wonder what's going on, there's not a single guard strolling about the place, says another."
they all reached the mansion just as the last group were seen going in.
"heyyyyy what's going on, is everything ok." one of the man shouted at the black figure standing beside the door.
The man in black waved his hand and a portal opened up next them and himself. in a blink of an eye he was in front of all six men.
"this is Mr. Clayton's business, Just turn around and leave." the male says to the six men.
"what do you mean, and who are you, take off the face covering."
the man in front of them was valco, Mr Clayton's right hand. he wore all black clothing with a face rag wrapped around his neck reaching and covering up all the way to his nose.
The only thing that could be seen was his eyes. "listen to me,upon the orders of your city head,go back into your homes." valco says once more.
"we aren't going anywhere until we have some answers about why the hell all of those people, mainly guards and fighters are all here and not patrolling the city like usual." one of the men spoke confidently.
"hmmmmm it seems something is indeed going on." Bison thinks to himself as he listened in on the conversation.
his hearing was top notch along with all of his senses.
"that one with the powers like the captain is very dangerous, he seems a bit.....
"I warned you all." says valco
Just as Bison was thinking about the man in black he witnessed six objects shoot out of a portal he didn't even see generate.
pschhhh ! pschhhh! pschhhh! pschhhhh!
six swords stabbed into each of their backs as the fell to the ground with multiple thuds.
Bison eyes widened a bit as he barely saw the attack.
Valco opened another portal and threw each of the bodies in inside, and just as he was about to enter himself valco turned and looked up in Bison direction.
Bison quickly laid down flat on his stomach with caution. "did he notice me from this distance." he thought.
valco turned back around and entered the portal.
A big man with a bald head and orange beard jumped up swiftly looking around his home. "something is wrong, I sensed someone's blood lust for a fraction of a second."
"Calvus get up,get stationary and be on guard now." the voice echoed throughout the house. A young teen buffed muscular boy around six foot eight jumped out of his sleep rushing putting on armour that hung next to his bedside.
The giant man was Sir Hughes and the boy calvus was his son.
Stay here, I'm going out for a minute.
"yes sir."
Sir Hughes left his home heading in the direction he felt the wave of bloodlust come from. he to noticed that a certain area within the city looked to be still and lifeless with no guards or patrols.
"something is definitely wrong here." he thinks to himself.
After a few minutes he arrived in the area he was sure was it, seeing blood splatter on the ground confirmed his thought.
"where the hell is everyone, I sense absolutely no soul cores in this area."
Sir Hughes squatted down touching the ground as a blue pulse of energy left his fingertips. it stretched hundreds of meters in the area reaching The city head's mansion and nearby buildings.
seeing this giant man down below Bison could tell by his energy he was ten times more dangerous than the man in black minutes ago and started to move preparing to climb back down the side of the wall.
"everyone is gone including Mr. Clayton." sir Hughes thinks to himself, but as the energy stretched across the ground it picked up someone's movement.
He turned to look up at the city walls guard walk in time to see a figure climbing over it.
Bison climbed half way and jumped the remaining way down while retreating back the way he came when out of nowhere.
Slash!
Bison leaned back while ducking escaping a huge double bladed long sword slash that came from his left side.
"who are you a deep masculine voice says while appearing in front of Bison like he just fell out the sky.
Bison stepped back while rubbing a bracelet on his arm. two short handled battle axes appeared in his hands.
"I am not here to fight, I am no danger to you or your city, but I will defend myself if I must." Bison says.
"hmmm I have never seen him before,and this energy that's coming from him isn't the same as the one I sensed. " sir Hughes thought.
"the attack I performed usually would have been followed by a person's body being sliced in two,so it's obviously you are not weak, but who are you and why are you here sir Hughes asked Bison.
Just as Bison was about to answer sir Hughes interrupted him.
" Just to let you know, if I don't like the answer or if I even feel like you are lying. " you will die where you stand." sir Hughes added.
with those words Bison felt himself becoming agitated, he didn't respond to threats well and the man in front of him now had just threaten to kill him, but Bison quickly dismissed his emotions Knowing what spade had tasked him to do.
he took in a few deep breaths before he responded.
"My name is Bison, and I've come to this city in search for help, my people and myself have been fighting for our lives, we have kids,mothers and many injured amongst us that need help."
